Slovné spojenia s Luciou Molnár Satinskou: Pohladiť slovom

The third part of the discussion series will focus on how queer people live in Slovakia and how people can talk sensitively and respectfully with and about each other.

Guests: Nora Barcziová and Roman Samotný

Eleonóra (Nora) Barcziová is the author of the concept of www.duhovykompas.sk, co-author of the book Let's talk about ourselves with respect and co-founder and member of the project It's about our lives. He is professionally engaged in coaching and HR consulting for small companies.

Roman Samotný is an editor, screenwriter and playwright. He is the creator of the Tepláreň community platform and the Queer Slovakia platform, which since 2012 have been creating a safe space for LGBTI+ people and their families and organizing educational, cultural and community events. He is a member of the civic association Iniciatíva Inakosť, which is dedicated to the equal rights and inclusion of LGBTI+ people in Slovak society.

The discussion project Slovné spilnie seeks answers to the questions of how to use language not to harm, but to bring people together, how language stereotypes affect mutual perception, and what barriers language can represent in everyday life for people who are not its "typical users". The guests of linguist Lucie Molnár Satinská will be representatives of various organizations that deal with the issues of minorities or vulnerable population groups, as well as representatives of various communities or social "bubbles". The aim of the discussions is to get to know the various communities that make up Slovak society better, and to formulate specific recommendations on how to communicate about and with each other with respect.
