In Bad Language, So Mayer blends memoir and manifesto as they explore the politics of speech, while looking at how language has been used - and abused - in their own life. What is the relationship between language and sexual violence? And how can we 'make ourselves up' in language, when words themselves are encoded by a dominant culture that insists we see ourselves as powerless listeners rather than active speakers? Examining the semantic traps of their own multi-lingual childhood - and taking in texts from the Torah to Grimms' Fairytales, from protest march bust cards to the works of Ursula K. Le Guin - Mayer asks who gets to speak, and who is forced into silence. Bad Language calls out the harm that words can do, while searching for crafty ways that we can collectively reclaim language for protest and pleasure.
