      @femfreq @anitasarkeesian I know I am just a random, humble Twitter follower. You have a much wider experience and audience. Would you care to help me on this problem? Please read the thread on my ideas so far (e.g. invited a female colleague instead).https://twitter.com/ProfBforBargain/status/961700448376901632 …

      So, Twitter followers. I just received an invitation for a conference where they will pay for my travel. However, the list of confirmed speakers so far is only of men. How do I, as a man, politely make my acceptance conditional on having women present as well? #allmalepanel

      Just tell them that -- you would love to participate but you find the lack of women (and I assume POC) concerning. You could offer to suggest some speakers. And then see how they respond.

          After expressing my concerns, the conference person apologized and gave me a more complete list of confirmed guests speakers which was much closer to parity in gender and much more diverse. So I am happy to have spoken out about it. 1/2

          Also, I think conference organizers, when listing confirmed guests to potential guests speakers, should make sure to showcase a diversity of speakers, not just "top" people in the field who tend to be white males. That way it shows incluseviness, and assures ... 2/3

          The potential guest that they are neither compounding the problem, or, when they are from a minority, not the "token" diversity invited speaker. All this to say, it is important to pay attention, be inclusive, and speak up when there are concerns. 3/3
