BIPOC page discussion. [878 words]
(created by Chaoticcylinder on 2021 Aug 17 Tue 9:47:53 GMT)
This is a page specifically for the discussion of the BIPOC page. Please only respond to this blog if you are BIPOC. You are not welcome in this discussion if you are fully white. How this will work: In the comments, you will discuss the topics listed on the format I gave. Each will give input, and, once you feel as though you have a good idea of what that section should say, you would type it out on a comment (decide who types it out beforehand, or all type it out and vote on which comment reads best.) That comment will be copy and pasted, and that is what the section on the page will say. For example (using a non-BIPOC topic as an example.) Person A: "Aromanticism is when you dont feel romantic attraction." Person B: "It also is a spectrum, correct? So full aromanticism is that, but not all aromanticism is." Person C: "We should have the page say 'Full aromanticism is when one experiences no romantic attraction, however, there is an aromantic spectrum, in which one experiences limited attraction." Person A and B: "That sounds like a good way to phrase it!" Formatting Here is the chosen way the page will be formatted: Description LGBTQ+ BIPOC Discrimination BIPOC Discrimination Appropriation LGBTQ+ BIPOC Identities LGBTQ+ BIPOC History Flags Resources/references Description The description will be the beginning of the page. The page will start off with "BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color)" and the rest of the description is up to ya'll. Somewhere within the description, however, must be a paragraph stating "Being BIPOC is not an inherently LGBT+ experience, and does not make one LGBT+ in of itself, however some (but not all) may find that their BIPOC status affects their attraction, gender, and similar queer identities in some shape or form." That sentence above is the only sentence within the description that I have added, as it is pretty much the same thing written on other pages (system, alterhuman, regression, etc) that aren't inherently queer in of themselves. The rest of the description is up to you. It must efficiently explain what is BIPOC and who falls under the BIPOC umbrella, without being overly complicated in language/terminology, so that uneducated viewers may understand. LGBTQ+ BIPOC Discrimination In this section, you will discuss an efficient way to describe the discrimination BIPOC queers face. This includes the following: A paragraph (or more) on lack of BIPOC queer representation (as most queer representation is white-centric.) A paragraph (or more) on BIPOC hate crimes (ie: black trans women are targeted more often than white trans women) A paragraph (or more) on racism/xenophobia within the queer community (ie: the white-centric behavior around pride parades, despite them stemming from black peoples accomplishments.) BIPOC Discrimination In this section, you will discuss an efficient way to describe the discrimination BIPOC (queer or not) face. This includes the following: A paragraph (or more) on white supremacy, and how it affects society. A paragraph (or more) on hate crimes directed towards BIPOC. A paragraph (or more) on white-centric media, and how BIPOC are not represented enough within media. A paragraph (or more) discussing racism and BIPOC slurs. Appropriation In this section, you will discuss an efficient way to describe the appropriation BIPOC (queer or not) face. This includes the following: A paragraph (or more) describing what appropriation means. A list of common/everyday examples of appropriation (eventually ending in "etc," as there is no way to cover all aspects of BIPOC appropriation within this list) A paragraph (or more) discussing how appropriation affects BIPOC people and their accomplishments LGBTQ+ BIPOC Identities In this section, there will be a list of BIPOC-based queer identities. This is the one section of the page where I will not be copy and pasting your comments, but rather, I will begin compiling a list of BIPOC queer identities right here, and you can let me know if I missed any. Here is what I have so far:
