Let’s cancel cancel culture
In reality though, a fear of saying the “wrong” thing is holding many of us back. From the fear of being challenged to the fear of being “cancelled”, it can be more daunting than it should be to be open about our stance on issues and topics that we care about. The feminist community could and should certainly work on having more grace when it comes to attacking those who speak out with good intentions and don’t get the language 100% “right”.
But freeing ourselves from approaching speaking out about our values as though we are taking some sort of test is something we can all work on as individuals too. If we all let the fear of imperfection prevent us from speaking our minds, where would we be?
And then there’s the challenge of finding the right words and the right medium. Not quite knowing how to say what we’d like to say is nothing to be ashamed of – we’re not all communicators, even if we all have opinions we’d like to put out there.
Comotion supports both organisations and individuals to communicate clearly and confidently on the issues that matter most to them authentically.
What do you care about? What are you experiencing? Don’t keep it to yourself! Say something.
