Workshop on anarchist approaches to feminism

by sky

Hi everyone, I've been talking to Yar about having an introductory talk/workshop on anarchist approaches to feminism at the Sudo Room on 22nd June. It would be aimed at a 101 level - my plan for this was primarily to fill a gap that I often see with many people coming to feminism through dissatisfaction with the tech community, and therefore not having access to some of the radical histories and frameworks that might be useful. I've included a provisional overview and brief bio below. I'm open to suggestions about what time would be best (Yar suggested afternoons are better), and about how to make the workshop a useful contribution to the Sudo Room. I'm also happy to answer any questions you might have. If this seems like late notice to pull together the workshop and advertise it, but people are still interested, another option is for me to give it in September, when I'm next in the Bay Area. best, sky. Anarchafeminism 101 This workshop is a brief introduction to anarchist strands of feminism. It aims to provide an overview of the history and concepts that underpin anarchafeminism, and to open up discussion about how anarchafeminist approaches might be useful today. Reclaiming our radical histories provides us with vital resources. For those frustrated with mainstream, predominantly liberal or neo-liberal feminism, anarchafeminism offers helpful frameworks for thinking about class, race, gender relations, organising methods, and feminists' relationship to the state. About me: I'm a teacher, researcher, and activist currently based in Toronto. My work focuses on how activists use and shape technology, and about how to build possibilities for radical social change. You can find out more about me here: http://skycroeser.net -- I'm a researcher, teacher, and activist working at the intersection of social change and technology. You can find out more about my work at skycroeser.net, and help support me on gittip.

# sudo support

by Matthew Senate

Hey all, Tensions have been running high for some at sudo room these days. *EVERYONE* should celebrate the love and support that truly flows from and through the sudo community. This spirit is real and deserves designation, vindication. In this regard, please hear these sentiments from a discussion at our weekly meeting this evening: 1. Let us be explicit: we have problems, including as of late the over-use and abuse of our space by merely a small number of opportunistic individuals, in spite and in the face of our community. 2. Together, let us raise our standards of expectation for use of the sudo room space, for members and non-members alike! Let us make these standards clear and known! 3. The time is nigh to organize and pack our things; we are moving, let us leave this place with grace and arrive refreshed, prepared. // Matt

I think this would be a great event to have at Sudo, and an opportunity for our community to have more conversations about our approach to activism and politics, and ways we can support everybody in our communities. Sky is open to tailoring a facilitated discussion specifically for us, but it would help a lot if people interested could say so in advance and let us know what questions and subjects are most relevant to them. Either way I look forward to seeing you all there. Thanks and yay!

Would it be okay to put it in for 3pm on Sunday 22nd of June so that people can start sharing details? Will someone put it in the Sudo Room calendar event listing? Or are there further processes required to get the go-ahead? There was even more enthusiasm on the omni logistics list! I will add it to the calendar. What copy should I use?

Proposed changes to the articles of association

by Marc Juul

These are the proposed changes brought up at the current sudo room meeting. We will attempt to consense on this at the sudo room meeting on Wednesday the 21st of May at 7 pm in sudo room. ===Section 2.1 Qualifications for Membership=== [...] * Successfully completing the process for becoming a member, below: ====Section 2.1.0 Process for becoming a member==== #'''Declaration of Intent to Join''' #* To become a member, a person must submit a brief written or spoken "Declaration of Intent to Join" where they answer the following questions: #** What is your (pseudo)nym and/or name? #** Why do you want to be a member of sudo room? #** What are you excited about hacking at sudo room? #** What are you excited about sharing with sudo room? #'''Initial Pondering''' #* It is only possible to become a member at the weekly sudo room meeting. Prospective members should attend if possible but can submit a written declaration if they are not able to attend in person. #* At the sudo room weekly meeting, every prospective member must leave the room while the existing members have a chance to bring up any concerns or reasons why the prospective member(s) should not be allowed membership (referred to as the "Initial Pondering"). #** The intent is for it to be very easy for new members to join, so only very serious concerns should be brought up. #** If any existing member objects to a prospective new member becoming a member, and this cannot be resolved through discussion, then the prospective member will not be allowed membership. #** Unreasonable or frequent blocking of new members by an existing member is grounds for immediate termination of membership based on a 2/3 vote. #* Upon completing the "Initial Pondering", such prospective members must be communicated to the sudo room mailing list within 24 hours, including their "Declaration of Intent to Join". #'''Extended Pondering''' #* After the Initial Pondering, if there are no objections, there will be one week for sudo room members to raise objections as to why the prospective member should not be allowed to join (referred to as the "Extended Pondering"). #* If there are no objections raised during the "Extended Pondering", the prospective member will become a member. #** The intention is to provide sufficient time to ensure all concerns of those unable to attend the meeting may be heard. #* The new member will be added to the membership list and given access to desired and relevant assets and services of sudo room. #* No announcement of this change of status after the "Extended Pondering"is necessary .

Please check that your Gittip payments are working

by yar

Last week, our Gittip dropped by over $100/week. It seems like they were purging expired cards, or made some other changes to their system? Either way, please log into Gittip and confirm that you are actually still giving the amount you originally signed up for. And thanks for funding Sudo!
