by Anna Marceau (they/them/theirs), Amrita Geddam (she/her/hers), Ellina Seckel (she/her/hers)
"As part of PSW’s commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, we want to share some guidance and collective understanding about gender identity, pronouns, and other related terms.
In a recent NPR story, Mary Emily O'Hara, a communications officer at GLAAD, explained, 'Pronouns are basically how we identify ourselves apart from our name. It's how someone refers to you in conversation. And when you're speaking to people, it's a really simple way to affirm their identity. It's really just about letting someone know that you accept their identity. And it's as simple as that.'"
