What is linguistic discrimination?

"HUD Fair Housing Public Service Announcement"



"Linguistic Discrimination in School African American English"
Note: The audio is a little out of sync on this YouTube video, but the content is informative.



Would you not hire any of the 21 "people" in following clip?
"21 Accents"

If you have an interest in acting and accents, check out Accents: A Manual for Actors- Revised and Expanded Edition


Speaking of acting and accents...
"Hugh Laurie: the British accent vs the American"
