Editing Safe Space (section)

== The Pragmatics of "Safe Space" in an Anarchist Hackerspace ==

Since Noisebridge is an anarchist space, this means there are no overlords to enforce good behavior.  There are no Arbiters of Social Justice to step in as authority figures to adjudicate conflicts.  Hell, we don't even have a Holy Book to refer to.  We only have this One Rule:

    Be Excellent to Each Other.

We do have an Anti-Harassment Policy[https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Anti-Harassment_Policy], which explains in detail various extrapolations of Being Excellent as they apply to the best practices of interpersonal relations in the context of a hackerspace.

If Noisebridge could ever be declared a "safe space", it would be necessary to answer the entailed question, "a safe space for whom?"
