WisCon38 POC Safer Space

[jhameia]

This year the POC Safer Space is going to be in 612 / 613, which are adjoining bedrooms. We're going to leave the beds in there, because I'm going to do my best to organize a PILLOW FORT FIGHT!

Also feel free to bring DVDs and laptops in there to play said DVDs because we will have TVs. I'm also trying to get in a microwave so if you wanna have a ramen party or you have leftovers from one of the amazing neaby restos, come have mealtimes in the Safer Space with your fellow POC!

Other things you can use the room for:
- naps
- snuggle parties
- post-panel breakout sessions; if you are a panelist (or not) and you think you want all the POC in a panel to get in here together to discuss what went down, just announce at the end of the panel "BREAK SESSION, 612, 7pm!" to cue to people that you want a breakout session. If people are interested they will come.
- get away from white people (Ok this is the main reason we have this room)
- meet fellow POC!!!
- spontaneous POC-centric programming
- any amalgamation of the above

If you have any questions, feel free to ask =)

Taking note! (I'm a little bummed that I don't think I'll have space in my handcarry for ramen though.)

That's okay. There's a Chinese grocery store in Madison that we could conceivably take a road trip to.

This is a brilliant idea.
