Description

<p>Read <a href="https://hbr.org/2019/11/the-costs-of-codeswitching" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">this article</a> with me.</p><p>We change the way we speak depending on who we&#39;re talking to. I think we can all agree on that. Some do it more than others, and some ethnicities HAVE to do it more than others, in order to try to avoid being stigmatised or stereotyped. I thought this was SUCH an interesting article about the Costs of Code-Switching and how we are impacted by it. This article focuses more on how Code-Switching affects black professionals in the US, and gives a really interesting view into a world that perhaps most of us are completely unaware of.</p><p><br></p>
