520 $a "Black" and "white" emerge as having accumulated these qualities and as having progressively, through negative and positive assignments to human beings, transformed the social climate of today to reflect a divided society, black versus white.
520 $a Results. Theorists employed several constructs to discuss language (word) use and social interaction, highlighting the role words play in denotation and connotation related to social order and interactive reciprocation.
520 $a Problem. The United States has a history of social interactive difficulties and this history manifest itself in the way the English language is used in social settings. Most English language "black" oriented and "white" oriented words as defined in dictionaries, thesauruses, and encyclopedias have been used as constructs that divide people in certain ways. Therefore, their use in the aforementioned custom has served as an impediment to social interaction. The application and role they have played in creating or transforming the individual and social order began somewhere in the lexicographic recording and treatment of the words.
520 $a Method. A case study modeled after Yin (1994) was employed using historical research procedures to explore and examine the words "black" and "white" in lexicographic recordings i.e., Dictionary, Encyclopedia, Thesaurus, and additional items from 1965 to 1995.
520 $a Language was characterized as endowed with the ability to create and perpetuate history. The data explored indicated a concordant agreement in the nomination of socially undesirable traits to the sum and substance of anything associated with the word "black" as well as socially desirable traits to the sum and substance of anything associated with the word "white."
520 $a Conclusion. Many lexicographic recordings have examples of the word "black" connoting a negative evaluation and "white" a positive evaluation. These involved arrangements of symbols have attained iconic meaningfulness over the twentieth century and have evolved into rigid symbols both involved and contentious. When a person is referred to within these generalized set of beliefs that evoke social consensus informed by language use, it is likely that a set of viewpoints and beliefs follow closely behind.
