Stanford University's index of 'harmful language” the school plans to eliminate offered alternative terms to words commonly used in everyday conversations.
published an index of"harmful language" it plans to eliminate from the school’s websites and computer code, offering terms to be used as replacements.
There are 10"harmful language" sections outlined in the index: ableist, ageism, colonialism, culturally appropriative, gender-based, imprecise language, institutionalized racism, person-first, violent and additional considerations. Other terms deemed harmful in this section include"abort," which offers the replacement of"cancel" or"end," because of moral concerns about abortion;"child prostitute" is replaced with a"child who has been trafficked," so the person is not defined by just one characteristic; and"Karen" is replaced with"demanding or entitled White woman.
The index does not offer an alternative for"brave" under the culturally appropriate category, but rather cautions against using the word at all. This section also asks that people use a person's name instead of"chief" or"Pocahontas."
