Weblogs: June 2008 Archives

The old People So Bold! was not clear about its audience and who it served.  It became part of the UU blog community and spent considerable time paying attention to other UU blogs.  While the conversation was engaging and worthwhile, it became unclear who People So Bold! sought to serve. 


Over time the old People So Bold! attracted Native American readers who found articles of interest, as well as people of color and euro-American anti-racist allies who found material that empowered their struggle to overcome racism and oppression. 


The new People So Bold! will seek to serve all those who seek to overcome racism, violence, patriarchy and colonialism. This blog will be an advocate, and its audience will be those who are looking striving for a new way of being human in a world of domination.

The Unitarian Universalist Association advice to bloggers puts it this way:

A code of conduct, clearly stated in advance, can set the expectation for how readers will treat you and how they will treat one another. Consider how you will respond to comments or other communications that express hatred or disrespect, or are threatening. Remember that this is your blog; you have the right (and responsibility) to remove content that you consider threatening to your own safety or to the safety of other participants.

 1)  I will not tolerate comments that are slanderous, express hatred, or make intemperate personal attacks on people or communities.

2)  I will not tolerate comments that are posted to bring attention to commercial web sites, pornographic web sites or web sites that advocate racism, hatred toward people or communities of people.

3)  I will not not write about private conversations or reveal confidences, and will discourage comments that are write about private conversations and reveal confidences.
