2) Strip lifetime membership from Sexual Predator. Do not give him more spaces to abuse people. 3) You are finally considering a name-change. It's about time. /2

4) Include ECR on your Board. They have demonstrated time and time again that they are more invested in saving this field than most everyone on that board. Do not dare approach vulnerable MoC/PoC because they do not need the hassle of working with that current board. /3

5) Speaking of the Board. They need to resign.
@prof_gabriele has already emphasized why, but I will add how toothless and ineffective most of them were. Time for change. Perhaps the only one who was remotely invested is@irinibus so she can stay if she chooses. /4Show this thread -
6) Commit to antiracist work. Your field is backwards. Don't ask me how because I & so many of my colleagues of color have given you enough of our time & energy. Some of these people have been ostracized & abused yet still worked to better a field that doesn't belong to them. /5

7) Consider carefully the treatment of indigenous populations and how your presence affects them when hosting a conference on colonized land. You have treated indigenous people like objects. Apologize and do better. /6

8) Support and include Independent scholars and researchers. You were doing that, but not very well. Having one on the Board would be beneficial, so put money aside to ensure they can make it to conferences or allow for skype meetings. /7

9) Refund the membership fee of those ECR and grad students who want to leave. You took their money and gave them nothing in return. You did not give them a voice or a better field. You made them poorer in every way. I reiterate that Elan Pavlinich wants his money back. /8

10) Reflect on where this org wants to go. You have failed as an org for far too long. This falls on all previous leadership, as we all know the problems didn't just begin a few years ago. /9
