Anderson Cooper committed a woke faux pas after he misgendered a Democratic activist while hosting a Bernie Sanders town hall event on Wednesday.
The CNN host was introducing activist Grace Thomas as they prepared to ask the Vermont senator a question when the mishap occurred.
“She’s a local civil rights attorney, she’s a Democrat, Grace?” he said as he spoke on CNN, before he was shot down by Thomas.
“It’s they/them pronouns, actually,” Thomas corrected him, to which Cooper quickly responded, “Oh.”
Thomas went on to ask their question about why the Democratic Party is hemorrhaging young male voters.
