But many of the commercial areas/downtowns that should have pokestops don't have any at all. Those are the poc ones like where I live.

What if black women, who safety is always in jeopardy, could create augmented reality maps? How much better would this be?!

According to a recent Kotaku article, it's possible to submit Pokestop suggestions on the Nintendo website! :)

Submissions page is no longer available

considering what's been happening to the servers, I'm not surprised. Maybe it'll be back up later this week!

And what about disabled people who can't always leave home? Why should they have to pay to play
#PokémonGO? What about kids in hospitals? -
I'm really grateful to
@Charkitect for digging up the original Ingress mapping criteria:https://twitter.com/Charkitect/status/754879733347684352 …

Ingress asked players to include places "where locals gather." But now, it's too late to even submit to add pokestops.

Also grateful
@dorolfe took time explain that at least some phones could submit pokestop suggestions; I wasn't sure if it was laptop-only. -
I mention that because a lot of black and latinx people only use our phones—don't even own laptops.

Another big consideration is rural areas, including reservations. Some of these spots don't even get internet service.
