Anyone interested in a Social Justice oriented YouTube channel?
Examples around harms caused by language, how to apologize when you hurt someone and so forth.
@gordy_kegs If I ever make a video and I do something wrong, I will lead by example.
I will edit content, have open discussions and hope that viewers can help ME grow as a person just as I want to help viewers grow as people.
@Moella20 Yes. A lot of it I have researched myself (books, articles, professors of social justice lectures), but I won’t claim to know everything. That would be foolish of me.
As with learning, collaboration is key. I won’t write video scripts without consultation and collaboration.
We all mess up sometimes. Including me.
Sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia... All of these we internalize from society without our permission.
Growth is not being defensive when we mess up. Growth is apologizing, learning and changing to the best of our abilities.
The #FBI is seeking information that leads to the identification of individuals who took part in the violence at the U.S. Capitol on January 6. If you recognize this participant, submit a tip at https://t.co/iL7sD5efWD, and refer to photo 330.
April Fools is coming up and harmless pranks are okay!
What's not a harmless joke: Coming out, identity, pregnancy, engagement, faking illness/death, cheating, breakups, feelings for someone else, or assault.
There's more I'm sure I missed and it's sad it needs to be said.
@oneoffour_se @CeeDub_Gaming I hear you, but as a bi man who has been excluded from LGBTQA+ spaces due to being in a “straight” relationship I hesitate to gatekeep. It feels like a slippery slope to more gatekeeping and having to defend my sexuality even more.
@oneoffour_se @CeeDub_Gaming So trans folks have to out themselves to use the tag? So bi folks have to defend their queerness if in a hetero-passing relationship? So people in the closet can’t dip their toes into a support community?
Nobody should have to defend their sexuality or gender. Period.
