When #Blacksky succeeds, all of us succeed.

The @latinsky.social account is taking the next step towards improving community moderation on the Latinsky feeds.

Moving forward, anyone can subscribe to the labeler and report harmful content, and our feed filters will remove that content from appearing on the feeds.

View of the Latinsky Account, now a labeler.

“A digital barrio centering Latine/x/o/a, Afrolatine/x/o/a, Immigrant, & Indigenous voices from across the ATmosphere.
Community Guidelines: tinyurl.com/3knwb8s8
Discord: discord.gg/5UBEgesv”

Label Definitions on the Latinsky Main Page.

“Hate Speech
Communicating hate, encouraging violence, perpetuating harmful stereotypes, or dehumanizing individuals based on their culture, race, religion, gender identity, or sexual orientation.

Harassment
Engaging in repetitive and unsolicited engagement in an antisocial or abusive manner, including but not limited to the use of harmful or hateful language directed at individuals based on their culture, race, religion, gender identity, or sexual orientation, the spread of misinformation, or through the sharing of unlabeled graphic or triggering images.

Spam
Engaging in repetitive and unsolicited engagement on the Latinsky feeds, either in an antisocial manner (even if
"joking" or "being sarcastic") or in a way to artificially inflate user engagement through posting low-quality, clickbait-like, misleading, and emotionally triggering content (i.e. engagement farming).”

I’d also encourage any Afrolatine coders or developers to reach out so that we can coordinate the development of new feeds/spaces like a dedicated Afrolatinsky feed.

This new #AddTo hashtag was built to help any future developer make those feeds!

My DMs are open.

To all the Afrolatine community out there, this space belongs to you the same way it belongs to anyone within the Latine diaspora.

And if there’s anything I can do to help make this space feel more authentically yours, I will happily work to get it done.

The National Farm Workers Association, founded in 1962 by César Chávez & Dolores Huerta used peaceful tactics like strikes, boycotts & marches to get better pay & conditions for farmworkers, bringing national attention & fueling the Chicano labor movement. #LatinSky #HispanicHeritageMonth

Our culture is beautiful. We invented chocolate, popcorn, chewing gum and guacamole. We are not lazy people. We work hard for our children's future. We are Mexicanos.

If you don’t respect Latine and Immigrant communities, abuelita is coming for you.

Latinsky’s new moderation list, La Chancla, is now available for you to subscribe to. It will be linked to the moderation labeler that will be rolling out later this week.
