Building communities resilient to abuse

Short url: 

https://squ.at/r/1nvb

While the hackers & activist communities are proud of being anti-authoritarian and using non-mainstream approaches to legality & rules, there have been many reports of the intolerance, harassment & abuse over the years.

This evening, we want to talk about best practices for dealing with the next crisis, and building communities that can constructively deal with conflicts and abuse.

Our aim is to have a physical space to chill out, debate, break stuff, learn new tricks, de-learn norms and contribute to the ongoing struggle against the white supremacist capitalist cis-heteronormative patriarchy, with a cup of tea.
