It seems like all of the work people have been doing the last few years to make wiscon more inclusive may be about to be undone because of a few people on the concomm. That's not ok. I don't know any details, only that there is still unrest and people who do not want to take sf3's suggestion for some goddamn reason, and that that is bullshit. I think of wiscon as an exception within feminism, a feminism that actually gives a fuck about about intersectionality and real progressiveness. Please don't take that from me. I need that.
Details.

Well, it goes for more than just the mainstream.
