The Friends of Karens pledge

Help stop hatred by pledging to treat the name "Karen" like you would your own name.

Karen is a human being. She is a child, a teenager, an adult, an elderly woman – your mother, daughter, sister, cousin, aunt, colleagues, friends. Stand up for the caring use of her name.

By signing this pledge, I agree to respect the name "Karen" as I would my own name. I pledge not to use it as a pejorative term to label, dismiss or belittle. I recognize that casual hatred and disregard for human dignity are always detrimental to society, even when cloaked as a joke. I will consider speaking out when I hear the name "Karen" misapplied or misused.
