And listen to us when we say it's there. Believe there's a problem. Investigate. Learn. He'll badly behaved people to stop.

URMs shouldn't have to do it, so how do we get the "stars" to call out (or call in) offenders? http://everydayfeminism.com/2015/01/guide-to-calling-in/ …
-
Yes, BIG challenge. Ironically, there are parallels in open science and inclusivity movements for changing practices in decentralized system
-
"Calling out" can be helpful for identifying instances & accountability, but also increase defensiveness and retrenchment.
-
I always start by first thinking about the carrots. Can we incentivize inclusivity behavior in the same way we try to incentivize openness?
-
Ex: (1) being explicit about the values, (2) getting high status buy-in, (3) highlighting stellar examples, (4) rewarding such examples
-
so I think this brings us full-circle to the point that just a few toxic people can make the whole culture seem unwelcoming
-
such that whilst we definitely want to incentivise good behaviour, there's specific need to draw attention to bad behaviour being unwelcome
-
there is a distinct risk though of inadvertently giving too much airtime to behavior that’s otherwise already on the fringes

Cool, I have just found out that I was called an idiot 3 weeks ago. Thanks Twitter!
-
I'm genuinely sorry this sort of shitty thing occurs in the open science community.
-
Funnily enough by the end of the discussion with whoever it was, I became convinced about the merits of citing preprints.
-
Ha. I'm so glad of that and that you're proving me that namecalling isn't ever accurate or appropriate
