Jessamyn, thanks for all you've done to make metafilter a safer space for women, GSMs (gender and sexual minorities) and POCs (people of color).

Do you find it problematic that despite all you've done, we nevertheless see monthly metatalk posts from GSMs and POCs who continue to feel unsafe on metafilter?

How can we increase the volume of the voices of the marginalized and erased, when most threads are still captured from the first post by predominantly white, male voices?

Can mathowie make metafilter a truly safe and welcoming space, or is a metaflter owned by a white male cishet just institutionally incapable of fully including GSMs and POCs?
