📕 Self-Defined Dictionary

-

Netlify Status

-

A modern dictionary about us. We define our words, but they don't define us.

-

Components (Build order)

-
    -
  1. Dictionary site: Webapp where words can be connected, linking to alternates for bad terms or alternates for definitions with nuance. Create ability to use parameters so someone can connect multiple words they use together, to help clear up how they define themselves. For example, ?disabled+pan+Indigenous. Creating such a strand easily would allow people to link in email signatures, Twitter bios, etc.
    2. -
  2. Twitter bot: Allows someone to tag @SelfDefinedBot in order to get automated reply. For example '@SelfDefinedBot define racism'.
    3. -
  3. Slack bot: Problematic words could be flagged and alternates could be provided. Could also define words.
    4. -
  4. Custom API: Allows dictionary to be adapted and included into other large-scale projects.

-

What happens to women of colour? Women of colour are conceptually split between their identies as both women and as people of colour.

-
-
-

- Impact -

-

The term can elicit feelings of erasure for women of colour. It also neglects non-binary individuals.

-
-
-

- Usage Tips -

-

- - Before determining which term to use, consider the purpose of identifying this aggregate group of people. If you mean "women" and are including "non-binary people" without taking actions to truly include them, then you should reconsider your usage.

+ Tool of Oppression +

+

+ gaslighting + + noun + +

+

+ psychological manipulation tactic used to abuse by instilling doubt in the victim's own thoughts, observations, feelings by denying, misdirecting, and lying to them; originated from the Gaslight play (1933) and film (1944), where a man changes the lights in the house, while denying her observations of the changes. +

+
+

+ Impact +

+

Gaslighting reinfoces systems of power, as gaslighting abusers will tend to be in systematically dominant positions where they are intrinsically believed over their victim (e.g., white person over person of colour, man over woman, abled person over disabled person, parent over child, manager over worker, etc). Gaslighting is an abusive and oppressive behaviour and tactic.

The abuser can become in control of the victim, who now no longer trusts their own perception. The victim can become codependent upon their abuser, and internalise .

Minorities is not always accurate and is vague. As it deals with numbers, the term minorities can often be inaccurate, as is the case when speaking of communities of colour, who often outnumber white communities.

+ By referring to a group as 'minorities,' it can suggest the group hasn't taken initiative to show up, thereby blaming the oppressed for systemic issues that prevent their participation. +

+
+
+

+ Impact +

+

By repeatedly referring to groups as "minorities," they are being infantised to their numerical representation and made to feel minor. The vagueness also abstracts the identify of the marginalised group, making it difficult to address why they are minoritised to begin with.

+ performative allyship + + noun + +

+ +

+ when an individual or group of power/majority/privilege (e.g., white, male, abled, unqueer, etc) loudly profess(es) their actions in the name of 'allyship,' while actively conducting harm to, taking focus away from, and generally being unhelpful towards the group they claim to support, often to receive praise and attention, without taking critical action to dismantle the systems of harm. +

+ +
+

+ Impact +

+

Performative allyship detracts from the stories of the oppressed and the impact that oppression has on them in favour of the stories of the oppressors and their intent to help. The cost of performative allyship can also be that the stories of the oppressed people are appropriated, watered down, and inaccurately retold by people who should not be telling those stories.
