Allyship is not about saving people. It’s about using your power, platform, and privilege to dismantle systems of oppression and hate. Also PLEASE spend less time debating and more time reflecting, unlearning, learning, and actioning 🙏🏽♥️

My friend @SefunmiOshy and a group of builders just launched Crystal: RateMyProfessor but for police officers & departments. It's on @ProductHunt today! https://t.co/IXUWDHauVh

just so we’re clear!

🗣🗣Critical and constructive feedback is a part of the allyship journey. If you’re not open to receiving it without becoming defensive and pointing to all of the things that you HAVE done, you’re not ready. Next time ask how you can improve. Ego has no place here.

Black business owners: Reply with a link to your website and a pic of something you sell.

People who are able to support a black business: Shop the replies.

I’ve seen tweets asking if @Shopify has a list of Black-owned businesses. I don’t know if a formal list exists but I’ll do my best, as someone who interviews store owners every day, to highlight the stories of the incredible Black founders I’ve met through my work. (Thread) 1/

I think it’s important for us as allies to start educating ourselves without the expectation of having to be spoon-fed this information while our black friends grieve, so here’s a thread for allyship learning that I’ve found in several FB groups and Twitter 👇

[Cassie Kaiser @CassKaiser]

Out of respect and empathy for our merchants and partners, we decided to put primary research on hold. Ariel and I chatted with Gene about the decision, what it means for the research team and how we’re pivoting to continue to support the company in making great decisions.

@AmritaGurney Amrita!!😍 You made my day. You wear them so well. Hope you enjoy them!

[Leisa Reichelt @leisa]

Good reminder for anyone who thinks that product analytics are 'what people do' and more valuable than 'what people say' in qual research.

It is really 'what people do given the current state of our product design' and not 'what they'd do if they could what they wanted'

Shopify app development + UXR = 💖

Excited to hear from @ShopifyUX UX Researchers, Nikita and @andyramjam about tips and strategies for successfully recruiting research participants for app dev studies.

[Jordan Deutsch @jrdnndtsch]

Stoked to announce @up_at_five will be hosting an @Shopify App Developer meetup on Oct 1st.

This time around we're focusing on UX Research and Design for apps. RSVP 👉 https://t.co/U4b8HSHsRH

[Cassie Kaiser @CassKaiser]

As researchers, effectively communicating insights is arguably one of our most important skills. Melanie recently experimented with how to share out insights by creating a UXR gallery - an immersive way of engaging with the output of her research. https://t.co/boxuH0Nd6D
