Making is a Safe Space
Here at Making, we believe in a core set of values. We firmly believe in these values and in creating a community that not only acknowledges these values, but is open to change. We hope that our community feels safe to speak out when those values may be violated for any one of our community members. Following our community guidelines, we are also aware of systemic and algorithmic biases that disproportionately affect many marginalized groups on popular social media platforms. Part of creating a safe space is to hold space for these marginalized groups in a way that may be different for non-marginalized groups. In this effort, we extend this responsibility to you, the Making community, to hold and create a safe space for other users, especially marginalized and underrepresented members of our community.
