What We Do
Language, Please, a project established by Vox Media, is a living resource for anyone seeking to thoughtfully approach evolving social, cultural, and identity-related issues. You might be an editor looking to understand the history of a sensitive word; a copywriter aiming to craft messaging that genuinely resonates with your target audience; or a manager on deadline looking for tools to help your team succeed. The challenge is the same: Language is ever-evolving, and the words and framing we choose can have lasting, consequential outcomes.
At a time of changing standards, our aim is to provide the greater context behind the shifting use of terms, connect related concepts, and inform thoughtful decision-making.Â
