The Language Project Podcast
Come and take a listen to all the ways that language impacts our society! In this podcast we'll explore various topics related to language - everything from how it defines us as humans, how it manifests itself in our technology and our media and arts and impacts the way we think, and how its automation makes our lives easier but also brings its own set of ethical challenges. I'll be joined by many special guests whose own lives have been notably impacted by language, as well as experts in the field of linguistics.

Come join me for Part 2 of my conversation with Marco Montenegro of Excelsior Works, where we continue to explore the role of language on workforce development. We explore questions such as - what does equity mean when it comes to opportunities to work? How does language impact that ability to find work? What is the impact of language on identity and one's place in the community? We delve deeper into the important work that Marco and the team at Excelsior Works does every day to uplift the diverse community of the Excelsior district in San Francisco.
