Who would post on an anti-oppression group on DU?
One for people to discuss all issues related to anti-oppression, and the intersectionality between them. Things like race, class, gender, sexual orientation, and disability issues. There is a lot of intersection between them, and I find people tend to privilege the issues they personally experience over the others - how about a group for all of us to work together?

Thoughts?

2. I think your idea is well intentioned, but it's a very broad subject.
At least as you explained it. All of those issues are discussed on these boards.

Perhaps you meant something more specific, as in discussing the public stigma about any of the various groups you mentioned?

3. Well, I think we'd be looking at intersectionality and broad anti-oppression strategies.
Of course, posts looking at specific issues would also be welcome.
