Embracing diversity in expressing English

People who speak English as a non-native grapple with the need to communicate ‘standard’ English in papers assessed for publication or academic purposes. Global domination of the English Language harms the languages and cultures of individuals coerced to adopt English as a second language or form the identity of an English speaker. This form of cultural discrimination is called linguicism, or unequal relationship between languages, or the use of language as a means of control and domination. My research on empowering nursing students for social justice praxis found that embracing diversity in expression of English in nursing is a matter of social justice.
