https://privacy.thenexus.today/start-making-the-fediverse-less-toxic/
Listen more to more Black people – and amplify their voices
Think before you post
Call in, call out, and/or report anti-Blackness when you see it
Support Black people and Black-led instances and projects
Approach it intersectionally
The article also has links to anti-racism resources and appendices with a list of common mistkes to avoid and blocklist resources for moderators.
Thanks to everybody who gave feedback on earlier drafts!
EDIT, 8/19: I updated #2 (which previously started with "Post Less"), and also made some other changes in the underlying article - including a bit more discussion about how anti-Blackness isn't just a US problem.
Read on for some excerpts (1/N)
