Is My Biz Anti-Oppresive?

The aim of Anti-O work is to acknowledge and reduce the presence of injustice.

While we can examine this practice on a personal level, we must also extend this action into our homes, social lives, communities, and our business practices to make this work impactful.

Within our workplace, the goal is to mitigate the effects of oppression that occur due to race, class, gender identity, sexuality, ability, and more.

What are the ways we can build equitable brands that prioritize ethics and accessibility and reform the systems that perpetuate inequality?

We all need to take part in order to make equitable changes in our society. As a brand, here are the steps we’re actively taking to work towards being anti-oppressive:

We’re committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion in all facets, including in our business.

We reject the hustle mindset and perfectionism trap due to its ties to oppression and white supremacy.

We offer accessible-tiered pricing and flexible packages based on individual needs and finances.

We seek to work with socially and environmentally conscious brands who are aware of their impact.

We’re about showing up and acknowledging areas of weakness in our understanding.

We’re committed to learning and improving. We invite you to call us out and in when necessary.
