Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Prejudiced talk is language that promotes prejudice or discrimination against a particular group. This type of language is used to separate and distance the speaker from the group being targeted, and to enhance the power and status of the speaker. It does not promote dialogue, conversation, or equality, but rather serves to reinforce negative stereotypes and maintain social inequalities.
