Broads Non Grata — Relaunch
This world needs more — Experiments/Rants/Scrutiny/Reflection/Diversity
Ashley Evenson and I started Broads Non Grata (BNG) with diversity as our motto. We wanted to create a space for everyone who wants to share their ideas/ emotions/ rants of how to make this world large enough for all sorts of people/ ideas/ energies/ discussions to fit in. Most of all we wished to create a safe space for all voices — we were interested in your raw emotions of feeling like an outsider to flourish (which I believe we all do in one setting or the other) in hope to work towards a more diverse/inclusive world.
Like true outsiders, in our first go — we failed.
We are extremely grateful to some beautiful writers — Yamini MacLean, Gabriella Salazar, Johanna Naomi, schian H and Anisesh (please find some of their heartfelt pieces at the bottom of this post) who have helped us launch off the ground when both of us weren’t terribly reliable as newcomers in this Medium world. To you, we apologize for not doing enough to take your voices at BNG go as far as they truly deserve to go. We are going to fix that.
We have put our heads together (again) and believe that we have come up with a way to channel our emotions towards the hard topic of diversity/inclusivity into BNG.
