race, class, and gender

Session Description

some possible discussion questions:

  • who has access to the knowledge and resources necessary to build an effective drupal site? who participates in the drupal community? why?
  • whose needs are met by drupal? are any groups/sectors/organizations better-served than others? why is this the case?
  • how have race, class, and/or gender impacted your working relationships?
  • what are some examples of drupal work that seeks to actively engage oppression – both within our organizations and partnerships, and in society as a whole?
