I'm in New Orleans this week for the #CreatingChangeConference! Let me know if you're here and want to meet up and talk #digisec, #nptech or what's going down in grassroots #queer and #trans organizing these days, especially on the community security front.

Got a hug from #AngelicaRoss 😍
Appreciated that she was wearing a mask (when not on stage), unlike the majority of the people at this conference even though they were strongly recommended. 😷

At tonight's closing plenary for the #CreatingChangeConference, #AngelicaRoss led a takeover of the stage by the just-created CC23 #Trans Action Collective, *demanding* #accessibility and #accountability. WOW and YES MA'AM.
I took some pix (and also got "Pose"d pix with Angelica, who hugged me when I told her I presented at last year's #TransTech conference ☺️). Will edit and process when I have the energy. Meanwhile here's video (takeover starts about 32 min in):

There are really good speakers and topics at the #CreatingChangeConference but the crowded, noisy space is really not good for me. Especially the session I went to on #ableism and #accessibility which was crammed into a very inaccessible room. The presenters (who were great) acknowledged and were apologetic about this, but I almost left. Especially when a late announcement came through that Alok was doing a meet and greet at the same time. Sigh.

The #CreatingChangeConference has barely begun and I'm already peopled-out. I have Sensory Processing Disorder and get overwhelmed pretty quickly nowadays.
Fortunately, they provided an overflow room for the opening plenary, so I could watch it with lots of space and less noise. They also have a scent-free quiet room attendees can use during the day.
The plenary is also available on YouTube:

I'll be attending the National #LGBTQ Task Force #CreatingChangeConference in #SanFrancisco February 17-21, if any followers who are also going want to say hi or whatever.
