About
As staff, professors, students at McGill we have to deal with shitty stuff on a daily basis. Let’s share our experiences of sexism, heteropatriarchy, transphobia, classism, racism, ableism together.
Microaggressions.com has an intense selection of microaggressions from around the world.
This Wikipedia page has a good overview as well!
I have had a couple question about why I remove the names of people mentioned. Here was one of my responses:
The purpose of this tumblr is to serve as a centralised place to gather people’s shitty experiences.
To be frank, the Internet can be a nasty place. If the person who submits a microaggression wishes to pursue any form of recourse, I recommend them to do so. I do not believe that it is the place of this Tumblr to go into the identities of the people who did those shitty things. Yes, they should be held accountable but not on Tumblr, and beyond everything, it should be at the discretion of the person who submitted the microaggression to pursue action or not.
Please note, I have since added a resource list.
Let us know if you have any questions as to what qualifies as a microaggression.
In solidarity!
