🔥 THURSDAY: Building decentralized tech is not enough -- how do we build a web of trust, respect & equity?
How can change the norms of decentralized tech?
Injustice cannot be cured by mere consultation, engagement, or representation. To effect meaningful change, those whose authority and privilege are sustained by inequity must yield power and distribute agency to those who are most impacted by systemic disparities.*** Â * Â -- Coraline Ada Ehmke
In her powerful essay "The Sacred Geometry of Respect, Trust and Equity,"  Coraline Ada Ehmke, a leader of the ethical source movement, suggests a new way forward. She challenges us to explore deeply the values of mutual respect, trust and equity and to make sure we build them into the DWeb in ways that we can measure.
This Thursday at the November DWeb Meetup, come hear Ehmke's talk & lightning talks by DWeb project leaders who are building new tools for anti-censorship, privacy and distributing power. November DWeb Meetup "Centering Respect, Trust & Equity in the DWeb" Thursday, Nov. 4 at 5:00 PM Pacific (Friday 12 AM UTC)
