How do you say your non-profit organization has all white leadership, mostly white management, and a high degree of white culture permeating the whole organization, without saying it directly?

Say: Our mission is to the inner city...

So there are what, over 11,000 Mastodon instances & less than 20 BIPOC-owned instances?

Correct me if these numbers are wrong.

I guess there is no need for a #WhiteMastodon hashtag, the whole #Fediverse is almost all white dominated.

What I hear:
Ok, now all you Indians and Black folk, just go hide & assimilate yourselves among the white people in the fediverse. No sense in making yourselves targets. The whiter the fediverse becomes, the better. No single instance owner should have the power to limit whiteness.

What I say:
Drop dead, whiteness needs to go bye-bye. Power to ALL people, not just the colonizer class.

Will Mastodon become just the newest chapter of colonizers & enslavers controlling & dominating Native/Indigenous/BIPOC people?

I believe it will NOT, but if racists & trolls isolate #BIPOC instances, it won't be the first time for Native/Indigenous/BIPOC people or the last, likely.

I know on Mvskoke.social & a network of other Native/Indigenous/BIPOC instances, we are safe & will prosper.

Coincidentally at the same time my son @jeremiah said he was thinking of starting a hip-hop instance Rap.social.

I stopped harboring thoughts & https://Mvskoke.social became a reality as an all Native/Indigenous instance.

Mvskoke.social will probably always be a small special interest instance. The important thing is as Native/Indigenous people, we are in control of our own digital lands.

When Musk bought Twitter, I was troubled with its direction & morally concerned that my usage implied support of a pro-Racist, pro-Nazi business.

I began to harbor thoughts of hosting my own instance. When I heard about Indg.club a Native-owned & populated instance, I jumped & immediately signed up.

I only know of 3 Native/Indigenous/BIPOC owned Mastodon server/instances.

https://Indg.club
https://Mvskoke.social
https://Rap.social

There must be more, right?
There must be Black-owned instances out there, right?!?!?

Anyone know of any?

Mastodon is very white, this needs to change.

Open media

What you boost, who you follow & what they boost, & the general type of users & what they boost on the instance you are on determine everything.

In my opinion, this makes the case for #BIPOC clustering on their own instances.

Boosting makes your world, & also brings more like-minded followers with regularity, & in greater amounts than other social media.

Blood quantum is suicidal, frankly.

Mvskoke Nation has a lineal descent to a relative on the Dawes Rolls requirement, which seems sensible to me. Other Nations that use blood quantum, I don't know... maybe they need to take a math class?

We know BQ is colonizer designed with a very specific desired result. It just seems foolish for a Native Nation to make sure paper genocide finishes the job...
