Super impressed with Karen Yin's @karenyin #ConsciousStyleGuide. I've been scouring sensitivity/authenticity issues for over five years now; thought I knew everything, or at least most. This book is next level.

Side note: The physical book itself is extremely high quality. Satisfying to the touch.

So, highly recommend! Great experience all around. Will eventually share key points that I've learned.

The Hollywood Reporter interviewed me in 2019 for its first-ever "Agents of Change" piece on diversity and inclusion. During the call, I referred them to my friend and adviser #HenryFuhrmann, aka the #HyphenKiller for his "Drop the Hyphen in 'Asian American'" article for #ConsciousStyleGuide. We eagerly awaited publication, but nothing came of the interviews. Or so we thought.

Today, I found a PDF of the article. I wish Henry was here so I could tell him. Miss you, Henry.

I love talking about why I created #ConsciousStyleGuide for writers and editors and how I use #consciousLanguage as a tool for equity. Here's my Q&A with #TheObjective, a publication devoted to improving the practice of #journalism.

My week has peaked, and it hasn't even begun. The Government of Canada recommends #ConsciousStyleGuide!

"The Conscious Style Guide website is a compendium of developments in the field of inclusive language. It was founded by Karen Yin, who launched both the website and The Conscious Language Newsletter in 2015. Yin encourages us to think critically about using language in order to avoid unconscious bias."
