Hi there!


This adapter should let you connect your flash drive to your Mac: USB-C to USB Adapter - Apple.


Hope this helps!

If your thumb drive has a USB-A connector, what you want is a USB-C to USB-A adapter. (An adapter that has a USB-C plug and USB-A socket.)


Apple sells one and there are also assorted adapters on Amazon. Anything from inline plug adapters, to a short adapter cable like the one Apple sells, to USB-A hubs that plug into a USB-C port and provide 4 or more USB-A ones.
