In a heartfelt message on Instagram, Abbott Elementary star Sheryl Lee Ralph took a stand this week on the importance of respecting people and their pronouns, particularly addressing older generations.
“Some of the things you used to say and do, it’s not going to work right now,” Ralph began, urging her followers to adapt to the times. “These children want to be called by their name,” she continued. “They want to be respected with their pronouns. I know it might be hard for some folks when they may not look like a she or he to you — they want to be called they, him, or he. Call them by their name.”

Ralph’s message comes at a time when awareness and understanding of gender identity are more important than ever. As society evolves, so must our approach to respecting each other’s identities and preferences. It’s a simple yet powerful way to show respect and foster inclusivity.
