A conversation with Dr. John Baugh, linguist and professor at Washington University in St. Louis, about his discovery of linguistic profiling: using a person's voice to make judgments about, and often discriminate against, them. We discuss its relationship to recent anti-Asian hate crimes, how awareness of the issue has led to progress in the workplace, and what we can all do about our own biases.
