If you work in trust and safety, you have heard phrases like "it's just a joke" or "I was trying to be funny" A LOT! However, as we look at the data, we can see that microaggressions, a statement, action, or incident regarded as an instance of indirect, subtle, or unintentional discrimination against members of a marginalized group such as a racial or ethnic minority, happen A LOT! In this episode, I speak with Rachel Kowert as we discuss microaggressions, how they present, and what we can do as platforms to mitigate and reduce risk when it comes to this type of behavior before it escalates.

In the digital age, the importance of content moderation in fostering safe, healthy, and thriving online communities cannot be understated. But despite the consensus among both players and industry professionals that moderation is essential, the current but outdated model of content moderation on games platforms has proven insufficient. In order to do this, we need systems and procedures that scale moderation to meet the growing need of today's online players. This can only be done through humans and technology working together.

The easiest way to make decisions is to automate the process. I first learned this as a teach building classroom policies. On average, a teacher makes about 1500 decisions a day. In order to streamline that process and make my life easier, I developed a system of procedures to make those decisions fluid and automatic so I didn’t wear myself out having to think about every thing that happened on a daily basis. Platforms are no different. When thinking about prevention and risk mitigation, having a clear process and procedure helps to ensure that systems function as they should and decisions are made in a consistent and healthy fashion. In this episode, I share an example from my own professional experience detailing the evaluation of risk, needs for change, cross team collaboration/buy in, and execution on a project.
