For #TransDayOfRemembrance
I am sharing this recent op-ed by Tamar Westphal.

Reading her piece was like finding the words I've been searching for.

Full disclosure: I had the pleasure of learning alongside Tamar in the The OpEd Project's "Write to Change the World" workshop.

I'm fascinated by the weight and significance of language.

From a linguistic perspective, "superseding" is a powerful term. It frames a change as an authoritative replacement.

Moreover, there is the associative power of the prefix "super" that's prevalent in everyday language.

This leads to semantic priming, which is the psychological process where the understanding and reaction to a word is faster due to a prior exposure to a related word.

A single word can shape perceptions.

Saw JOY RIDE last night. The movie made me crack up and shed a tear. A refreshing break from stereotypes, the Asian-American cast pushes many boundaries, creating chaos, edgy humor and depth.
