The English Language and the Human-Psyche Trafficking: A Discourse on the Context of Superstratum as an Agent of Loss of Tribal Values


E Chukwu

Abstract

Human-psyche trafficking and human physical trafficking diverge: the former leaves one at his social milieu; the latter lifts one to another social environment. The English language, invading Africa, is changing Africa’s world-views, wrecking cultural perspectives and gradually overpowering many languages. This bare-faced
blow on indigenous languages, pivotal channels for cultural transmission and retention, has made many start thinking in English, acting out English culture, believing in everything English and dreaming of living perpetually as the English. This is the human-psyche trafficking this paper sets out to introduce as a seminal inspiration for further evaluation and onward repudiation.
