MILWAUKEE, June 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- We all code-switch as human beings, and it is something that we do naturally. Consider how you talk and express yourself when around family or friends. More than likely, you communicate and express yourself in an informal way. For instance, you may use jargon, profanity, slang, etc. In contrast, when speaking to a prospective employer during a job interview, when around your colleagues, or even at a fancy restaurant, your speech, appearance, behavior, and expression transition into a more professional, formal, and measured form. Essentially, code-switching entails that we conduct ourselves differently in formal or informal settings.

Key Points: 
  • However, for people of color, code-switching goes far beyond conducting themselves differently when immersed in either formal or informal settings.
  • "Code-switching may help people of color navigate white spaces, but it is not enough to overcome racism," says Paasewe.
  • The first edition of How Black College Students Learn Code-Switching (2020), has been adopted by 32 higher education institutions across the nation.
  • *Paasewe is available for interviews and speaking engagements on diversity, equity, and inclusion topics surrounding race, education, and communication.
