At @TakeThisOrg ‘s #GDC2022 Talk: Accountability & Repair in Games: Healing Harm
This talk has been a reenacting of a scene in which a coworker has been inappropriately touched and showed a break down of the kinds of communication that’s helpful to resolve situations like this

#GDC2022 @TakeThisOrg
@TakeThisOrg showed excerpts from an incredible video on Accountability and clearly defined how it is a process rather than a point of arrival. #GDC2022

Full video can be found here:

One of the most important talks at #GDC2022

@anitasarkeesian ‘s “It’s been 10 Years Since Tropes Vs. Women in Video Games: What’s Changed?”

Live Tweet 🧵:
@anitasarkeesian:

“In one hand, I hold trauma and fear and anger And then the other hand I hold tremendous and enormous pride at the contribution that trips is made to the shifting tide of games culture.”
@anitasarkeesian:

“proper social decorum tells me to be humble, but I think that in this moment, in this talk in this room at this point in history, I get to say that Tropes opened up a conversation that fundamentally changed this industry for the better.”

Massive applause

This is the worst & most toxic way to interview someone.

It is deeply unkind, the power dynamic is already unbalanced and what pisses me off the most is that the company not the applicant is the one who needs it more.

I don’t understand how men get away with this bullshit.
Companies are the ones in dire need of good talent.

It’s their projects and teams that suffer when they need to grow and need expertise to help them ship their game.

In the interview process is the first point where the studio will teach you how much they respect you.
It is the role of the applicant to accurately reflect their abilities, skills and how their past experience has equipped them to serve the needs of the job.

it is the duty of the interviewer to facilitate an environment of trust where the applicant can focus on their role.

📣This is an excellent thread AND I wanted to add my own thoughts 💖📣

The ways that nuerodivergence and invisible disabilities impact peoples lives is not to be taken lightly. It’s insidious and unjust but there is a need to apply intersectionality in this movement for equity.
I care about advancement, support, access to the “the table” and safety for all people no matter their background, gender, ability or sexual orientation.

BUT

To hold conversation in any meaningful way we have to agree on fundamental facts + listen to lived experience.
The ways that women, trans people, black people and people of color are systematically disenfranchised, dimished and out right suffer assault on a grand scale is so disproportionate.

Entire black communities have been destroyed and had parks like Central Park built over them.

I can’t help but feel bad for the game developers that unfollow or mute me.

I have a lot to teach them about curiosity, compassion, emotional fortitude and contending with unjust power structures.

A 🧵 on power:
Whenever I choose to follow someone, and I follow a lot of people, it is because I am invested to some degree, larger small in their continued success.

if someone tweet some thing out of rage or despair, that is the last reason why I would ever unfollow them.
Seeing someone express rage or despair reads to me as a last resort of communication. If I have learned anything about my 300+ personal 1:1 conversations with game developers, it is that time is not linear, and we all have composite gifts to offer to each other.

If you feel defensive at something you’ve read online I would encourage you to examine that defensiveness closely and see what isn’t yours to carry.
Often times I find myself becoming g defensive towards things that aren’t about me or my actions whatsoever.

Other times I find myself becoming defensive over the regrets and shame I have had at not having done “better”.
What I wish for all defensiveness is compassion, forgiveness, grace and support.
