Apropos of nothing, some thoughts on what feminist kindness might actually look like:
1/n centring the voices and struggles of precarious workers organising for fair pay and conditions, inc parental leave
1/n centring the voices and struggles of precarious workers organising for fair pay and conditions, inc parental leave
2/n working from and with grassroots voices and organisations rather than imposing a view, format or instruction from above.
3/n exercising compassion by listening to the most vulnerable without demanding comfort, when they/we speak about how your structural and systemic power injures individuals and communities
4/n not centring cis men and recognising that part of allyship is to step back and make space for more marginalised voices
5/n recognising that asking others to tolerate harm from those with more structural power in the name of "solidarity" is cruelty, not kindness, and exclusionary not feminist
6/n not accruing leadership and power but working for its distribution and democratisation
7/n not demanding others' labour to burnish your own virtue-signalling, or asking others to educate you when tools and material are readily available, or claiming to originate work that has been done for decades particularly by BIPOC feminist & queer communities
8/n read or listen to "what I've learned from being a brown critic on the internet (and what I need now from our readers)" by @thewhitepube & pay into their Patreon https://www.thewhitepube.co.uk/whativelearnt
9/n be nuanced, be generous, be attentive, be inclusive in your language -- who is being left out by your words (eg: "male" and "female") and who is being solicited by them?
10/n actively create safer, less stressful collective spaces that don't prioritise the most confident, demand "networking," and generate social anxiety
11/11 know when to stop & let ppl get on with their lives. Thanks for reading!
