Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a critique of the misuse of language in education and privilege. The author argues that the written and spoken word has been corrupted over time to create a system that supports oppression. Various terms and phrases are said to have alternate meanings that attempt to confuse and control the general population. The manipulation of language is paired with an erasure of history that claims the learned class of today is wholly responsible for the end of chattel slavery. However, the author sees this as an incomplete victory. The learned class as a whole has always existed at the expense of the oppressed, and their motivations have not changed merely because their methods have. Beware the person who claims authority over you based on their superior command of the language, for it could be a tool meant to keep you subservient. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330227121_0
