James Baldwin “Is language really a key to identity or social acceptance?” We are judged by what wear‚ who we associate with and most importantly‚ how we speak.

Almost everyone has judged somebody based on appearance or intellect so society makes it seem normal to us‚ though it is wrong. I defend James Baldwin’s claim that language is the key to identity and social acceptance
