(8/3/20) We gravitate toward people like us; it’s human nature. Race, class, and gender shape our social identities, the people we perceive as “like us” or “not like us.” But one overlooked factor can be even more powerful—the way we speak. In her new book “How You Say It: Why You Talk the Way You Do And What It Says About You,” Professor of Psychology at the University of Chicago Katherine D. Kinzler examines how and why the way we talk is central to our social identity. Join us for an examination of this largely overlooked phenomenon in this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large on WBAI.
