      I'll try to call you again.

      But sorry. The more I read from the staff...the more I assert that there is 1) a lot of ignorance about racism and sexism and 2) some pretty clear racist ideation.

      And again, I don't mean that they are mean or hateful people at all. Quite the contrary. But it seems clear that the stuff that they allow...on the forum...is at least, in part...reflective of their own beliefs and orientations. It is quite an interesting phenomenon.

      :woot:
      Will have limited internet access again. :sniff:
      Barring a miracle of the financial variety not usually seen outside a televangelist studio, I won't be able to be online past 7:00 CST during the week as a general rule.
      I'll check in when I can.
      If you've an urgent need of an Adviser, please check with Submarinepainter, Makedde or Southpaw.

      I'll be back when I can during the day times....
      Y'all have fun!
      Play nice and/or post the pics!

      Hey Tresha.

      How are you doing? I am still sorry to hear about Inferno. I have read the tributes. They have been very nice. I just have not commented because I didn't really know her, so I didn't feel as if I could contribute to the discussions. But I have been moved by the memories...and even in reading some of her old comments.

      I also just read one of your posts about how her injuries contributed to her passing. So. If you will forgive me...I am moved to try and leverage that for constructive feedback for the staff.

      It might just be me. But I think that the moderators and staff could benefit from some reading or training around GBLT awareness, Racism and Multiculturalism.

      I was complaining before. Because I thought that some of the content allowed was just so blatantly hateful and sexist and racist...that it was just astounding and at variance with the stated goals of the forum as expressed by Shiva. However, I think that you and Shiva and the other staff have actually been very responsive to that. Demonstrably. And meaningfully. So I am not complaining anymore.

      However, I still think that many of the staff...don't really seem to know some of the fundamentals of difference. In reading several posts...I just don't get the sense that many understand what racism and sexism really means or how it is expressed. I am also interested in what seems to be a common feeling that minorities raising the issues...are unjustly complaining and using race cards. Not to mention a common theme of reverse discrimination. LOL. Now...I actually think that any of these positions are fine to have...so it is not about disagreement for me. But I just don't get the sense that several of the white, conservative moderators and advisors...really have a good grasp of what the "isms" actually are. What they actually mean.

      But this is not a complaint. In fact, if the staff never explore this...it will be fine with me. People have plenty of other things to do.

      Yet, given what you have written about Inferno and the respect that the staff seem to genuinely have for her and her memory...maybe there is an opportunity for people to learn and reflect.

      And I don't really want to put this on "you". I just had a thought that you might understand what I am saying...without being offended by my suggesting it. In advance, however...please accept my apology if my communication does offend you.

      Best wishes.

      Greg

      Top o' the mornin' to ya! Actually, the screen name comes from one of my cats. The Hobo got his name from riding into my work on a freight train from Georgia, USA as a wee kitten. He is the house clown, and I started calling him stringing nonsensical words together, and that's one that popped out one day. :)
