I think this is colonialist thought that stands in the way of true diversity but I understand the thought behind it :)\r\n\u003e \r\n\u003e In terms of \"the identities\" I prefer \"people of all genders and sexualities\" as this doesn't require self-identification (something fraught in itself) personally.\r\n\u003e \r\n\u003e What do you lot think?\r\n\u003e \r\n\u003e Kim\r\n\r\n@kimadactyl mentions three suggestions with respect to the text on the current mission page (I will attempt to summarise/number):\r\n1. We should add an intersectional statement.\r\n1. We should reconsider the \"We want to be with people like us\" language currently present.\r\n1. We should consider replacing the big list of identities with someone like “people of all genders and sexualities”.\r\n\r\n@kimadactyl does that seem fair and accurate? (Particularly number three which I wasn’t sure about).\r\n\r\n\r\n ","author":{"url":"https://github.com/chromy","@type":"Person","name":"chromy"},"datePublished":"2017-12-28T22:06:28.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":4},"url":"https://github.com/30/queercodeberlin.github.io/issues/30"}
