A commentary on linguistic racism

In honor of International Blog Against Racism Week, I wrote an entry in my personal journal about racism in language attitudes. It is primarily directed at my American friends, most of whom are white, middle-class, and well-educated, but it might also prove an interesting read for you Danes (most of whom are white, middle-class, and working on becoming well-educated). As I said in the conclusion to that entry, I welcome reasoned discussion in the comments.

(The style for this blog doesn’t seem to insert a color difference on linked text; click on “an entry in my personal journal” for the link. Hans, can we do something about this so links are a bit more obvious? Thanks!)
