@setalyas Don't need to waste bbudget getting more able bodied white people to the track :P

[LGBTQ Fandom @NineWorldsLGBTQ]

@setalyas Point of possible note, I specifically used budget exclusively to facilitate attenance of POC and disabled speakers for the track.

[LGBTQ Fandom @NineWorldsLGBTQ]

@setalyas Okay sorry. I'm sorry that I came across to you as defensive. I did not intend to come across that way. 140 char is too low lol

[LGBTQ Fandom @NineWorldsLGBTQ]

@setalyas I made efforts at the show that I hope will improve that next year,

[LGBTQ Fandom @NineWorldsLGBTQ]

@setalyas I was aiming to share that I did make efforts, they were not enough and I appreciate that

[LGBTQ Fandom @NineWorldsLGBTQ]

@setalyas I appologise if I came across defensive. Was more trying to reassure you it is something I'm aware of.

[LGBTQ Fandom @NineWorldsLGBTQ]

@setalyas RE: next year, I did reach out to the race and culture track head at the event asking for their help for next year.

[LGBTQ Fandom @NineWorldsLGBTQ]

@setalyas Across the three days the LGBTQ track had 4 speakers OC, some of whom appeared more than once.

[LGBTQ Fandom @NineWorldsLGBTQ]

@setalyas I did put out several requests for speaker nominations but few responses. There are tweets on this acount specifically for that.

@Diran_Sky Anacdotally I have totally seen young kids using Stevonie as a reference point for non binary gender.
