 **Give them the deserved space:**
-A thing to have in mind is also to avoid tokenism and get just a few people from some collective to “fill a space” or check a “diversity checkbox”. A pretty commonplace, sometimes born out of good will but incorrect anyway, is to center all the attention over the “diverse ones” around the thing that makes them diverse. Women or nonbinary all grouped in a talk about how it is to be a woman or a nonbinary in the industry. Third world devs all together talking about the third world difficulties. Because although these subjects are important and are necessary conversations we need to have, that can’t be the only or main intervention of those artists in our events. They need to be able to show their work and talk about/show what’s important to them.
