Download or read book Microaggressions, Safe Spaces, and Trigger Warnings written by Gary Wiener and published by Greenhaven Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the name, trigger warnings have nothing to do with gun control, and safe spaces don't necessarily mean state-of-the-art panic rooms. Instead, these terms and the phrase "microaggressions" relate to preserving and protecting one's emotional safety. In this volume, readers will learn about the increased demand for sensitivity in social settings, in literature and media, and on the Internet. They will also encounter the opposing view, that we, as a society, are becoming too fragile and don't need figurative bulletproof vests for every occasion.
