This article provides a general overview on language and discrimination from the point of view of the social psychology of language. Following a short historical preamble, it provides a brief introduction to the research that was part of the special task force on Language and Discrimination established by the International Association of Language and Social Psychology. The task force aimed to draw attention to current conceptualizations of the links between language and discrimination, delineate communicative features related to discrimination, focus on the experience of victims of discrimination, and outline measures that may contribute to thwarting discriminatory practices or limiting their impact
