#ConsciousDesign #ConsciousStyleGuide

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."

@karenyin Your #ConsciousStyleGuide may be the resource I've been searching for.

Even in recent posts, I've tried to be more deliberate in my word choice to at least limit my default and deeply ingrained ableist language, and it's been more difficult than I'd hoped.

This is an issue that's top of mind for me as I begin to do more personal and public writing.

It isn't easy being a one-person team for several free resources, so when prestigious publications link to my humble websites, it's such a boost. ❤️ Thanks for the nod, #HarvardBusinessReview and Yetunde Hofmann! #Takeaway: "If love, awareness, and respect are actively pursued, exclusionary language…will be at a minimum." #ConsciousStyleGuide
