Words matter. Historically, words have been used to dehumanize, allowing "researchers" to study "objects" or "animals" instead of humans, which contributed to the atrocities of Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan. The speaker will also review words currently used to describe people who participate in research-are they dehumanizing too?
