Show Notes

When people point to social issues that affect many, we can often look at that as a political issue. This kind of thinking creates division where there doesn't need to be any. And overlooks the human beings at the center of these issues. In this episode Allie and Michelle look at a recent discussion relating to WordCamp 2023 as an example of unfairly and unjusutly politicizing and subsequently dehumanizing people at the core of important conversations.
