Editor's Notes
- Everyone: What does diversity mean?
- Kevin: thoughts here?
- Everyone: Strategies for putting together a cast of characters Human/nonhuman (Bypass by using monsters, animals) Greater representation helps us move beyond stereotypes Gender/race flip
- “Microinclusions” in contrast to “microaggressions” – mimimal effort to show a more diverse world
- Everyone: other types?
- Liza: 24 hour clock
- Girls Who Code, bringing in role models
- Apps for Impact – getting apps out to underserved communities
- Liza: Hopscotch – what happens if you’re only on iPad, not less expensive apps like iPad David: BrainPop
- Everyone: What question would you add for a diversity version of the Bechdel test? Here’s a game to play: When you look at posters for movies or TV shows, see if it makes sense to switch the title to “What’s Gonna Happen to This White Guy?” (“Forrest Gump,” “The Martian,” “Black Mass”) or if there’s a woman in the poster, too, “Are These White People Gonna Have Sex With Each Other?” (“Casablanca,” “When Harry Met Sally,” “The Notebook”).
