Modern Pronouns: They is Correct
Wednesday, January 18, 1:00-2:00 on Zoom
Using “they and them” in the singular may seem to go against what you learned about grammar, but you’ve probably been noticing a lot of people using the pronouns they/them instead of he/him or she/ her… so many people that Massachusetts now offers M, F, and X gender markers on driver’s licenses, and terms such as non-binary and genderfluid have made it into mainstream media. Wondering what it all means? Julie Nowak (she/they/xe) will help us to better understand these terms and how to use affirming language and pronouns to create a more inclusive community. Call the COA at 781-786-6280 to register.
