One of the dozens of workshops offered during OWR II was on the importance of writers using approrpiate and respectful words when reporting on cultures different from their own. It was a great conversation, and lead to all kinds of ah ha's. Additionally, there was a discussion about cultural appropriation, and the resentments than can spring from that. Terrific food for thought. We'll do it again next year.
