What Amadi said.

ETA: She just gave permission to copy the entire post, so Imma do that:

--

If you:

• Find that I've just quoted someone you know of to be a known repeat offender abuser/bully without noting that the person is problematic
• Find that I'm engaging with such a person, perhaps without knowledge of their history
• Note that I have invited someone of this sort into a larger conversation in some way

please let me know. While I am, I think, aware of the three most prominent trouble-causing people in the corner of the social justice blogosphere I hang around in at the moment, obviously things have occurred and will occur outside of my knowledge. Come to me, talk with me, let me know. Help me to help keep us all safer. In turn, I will, with respect and with only that goal in mind, do likewise for you.

Note: Feel free to duplicate this post or use it as a jumping off point for your own statement on this matter. No attribution required, even if you copy completely. This isn't about me, this is about us as a community.
