As much as I love @Twitch, it’s still a place where racism and bigotry appear far too often.
Don’t let it slide. Confront viewers who make racist comments. Time them out. Educate them. Ban them if you have to.
Show your community that it’s not acceptable anywhere.
Ever.

One of the first things that impressed me on Twitch was first watching
@CohhCarnage (our first client) in 2012. Someone said some racist junk and his mods banned the guy. Cohh pauses the game and explains why it’s unacceptable. He tells him he’s welcome to stay and unbans.
That's a great lesson. It's not just the ban, its the moment to pause and educate about why its unacceptable to people who would listen to him. I hope more streamers can take a lesson from him, myself included.

If everyone listened to Cohh talk for an hour, the world would be a better place.

I agree! More streamers need to speak against it rather than blaming Twitch for "allowing it" I'm currently banned (for now) b/c I chose the wrong way to speak out against a VERY racist TTS donation. It was my mistake but I didn't want to brush off the racism like it was nothing.
