@weirdofhermiston @aearil @Emily the whole issue is with the world chess federation discriminating against trans woman so the statement will inevitably be focused on them.

@aearil @Emily @weirdofhermiston woah I did not know that, the article I saw focused on trans women so I searched and nearly all of them don’t mention trans men but it’s there. Thank you for pointing this out!

@blogdiva @tchambers @evan To add on to that, funds is a really good first step to help us start building but we're all doing this unpaid and so it does consistently come down to a dedicated few to keep things moving forward. What will happen (and what we are dealing with) is that when it comes to T&S we're starting with our values then simply figuring it out from there.
I even want to say the most impactful thing you can provide to those of us building these platforms is knowledge & expertise. It's a common theme we see when helping black folx and marginalised identities to donate and declare that as your allyship (I have seen this on mastodon very regularly) but either not do the work of antiracism or actively participate.
I do know the participation part is a touchy subject as we don't want people coming in and taking up the space but at the same time, if you have that knowledge and skill, it will be appreciated and taken advantage of.

#BlackMastodon May be interested to hear that Aveta, the community organizer in black tech Twitter has launched a defederated Calckey instance that will prioritize safety, privacy, and accessibility for minorities.
I’ve been working with her and others and while launched it is still invite only as we address T&S, accessibility issues and how to best grow the platform focused on users.
bipoc people can DM me for an invite, if you’re willing to help us improve the onboarding experience give a shout as we have product people collecting data and they need volunteers.
We're also looking for developers, product, UX, and other engineers to help improve the platform so do also reach out if you are interested.@blackmastodon@a.gup.pe @BlackMastodon@chirp.social
Edit: To be clear I’m creating invite codes and not sitting on one.
