"Concerned at the UK Government’s intentions to review the #HumanRights framework and #JudicialReview we have come together to state:

While every system could be improved, and protecting #rights and #freedoms for all is a balancing act, our #HumanRightsAct is a proportionate and well-drafted protection for the fundamental #liberties and #responsibilities of everyone in this country.

The Act guarantees the rights to #FreeSpeech and expression, to life, to #liberty, to security, to privacy, to assembly, and to #FreedomOfReligion or belief. It prohibits torture and guarantees fair trials and the #RuleOfLaw.

Judicial review is an indispensable mechanism for individuals to assert those rights and freedoms against the power of the state." humanrightsact.org.uk/

Given their penchant for influencer-curated "news" & commentaries, one wonders how many of those dull, insecure, pitiable young #men who gave #Trump their #vote will even read this article & get enlightened? #BreakUpBigTech

I have this wild idea that simply defining #techJobs by their #responsibilities instead of their #techskills could ease many ailments of the #techsector :

- #imposterSyndrome
- #techExcptionalism
- failure to hire & promote #women and #minotities
- chronic under-appreciation of #softSkills
- #engineer tunnel vision
- over-focus on a specific #Technology
- lack of definition around senior roles
- #manager Vs IC tension
- EMs doing #coding rather than #management
- The #10x / #rockstar #Dev myth

Here's the thing: It's my #POC community & as I'm a part of that, some of my #responsibilities is to address it within that community. It's not #WhiteFolks' jobs to do that - calling out/calling in/educating #diaspora Asian folks suffering from #InternalizedRacism & hurting fellow #Asians.

Just like it's not POC's jobs to deal with white #racists - it's the responsibilities of white folks to deal with problematic bigots in their own communities.

"…the #rights & #responsibilities that #MemoryInstitutions have always enjoyed offline must also be protected online:
- #Collect digital materials, including those available via streaming;
- #Preserve those materials, repair or reformat them;

A quotation from Martin, Judith:
