What's the real difference between a "handout" and a "lifeline"? Between an "entitlement" and an "investment"? It’s more than just semantics. In this episode, we're diving deep into the grammar of judgment—the subtle, everyday words that construct the very walls of poverty. We'll explore how our vocabulary creates a moral hierarchy of need, allowing us to judge from a comfortable distance. This isn't an abstract debate; the link between language and poverty has real-world consequences for real people. Can changing our words really begin to change our minds? Let's talk about it.
