Harrassment, Bigotry, Safety Policies, and Changing Culture
Pagans, being human mess up just like everyone else…Glad to see more policies confronting this! I will be making a commenting policy for this blog to encourage open, civil dialog & discourage (& ban/delete) uncivil & bigoted comments.
It’s a sad truth that harassment and discrimination occurs within the Pagan community. However, I want to call some positive attention to several Pagan events that have adopted safety and anti-harassment policies at their events. While a lot of Pagans tell me, “Duh, of course we’d kick someone out for racist comments/sexual misconduct/gay bashing,” the truth is, this is not always the case. And further, some issues–such as discrimination against transgender people–have only recently become something that more Pagans are even aware of, much less working to address.
