Antonia Peigahi (she, her, they), director of policy and records management at Sacramento State, visits the studio to tell her incredibly personal story of coming out publicly as a transgender woman.

We are joined for a conversation about the role of gender pronouns by Sacramento State Professor Dana Kivel (they/them/their) and PRIDE Center Program Coordinator Tranh Pham (they/them/their).

Together, we explore the use of language that can help all of us, as people, show respect by avoiding labels and assumptions that can be hurtful.
