Derailing for Dummies (on discrimination)


Hi all,

See http://www.derailingfordummies.com/  for information on how people derail conversations about discrimination through using racist/sexist/homophobic/classist/ageist/ableist discrimination. Knowing this is a powerful tool in how to deal with derailing and people who express discriminatory attitudes.

I didn't have a chance to read it all right now, but that's a great site. Definitely something I'll have to keep in mind as I know I've done some of those, sadly enough.

Glad you found the site handy. :)

I definitely need to remember the site's advice too. I'm sorry to say that I've done a few things mentioned on the site too.
