Keep reading for our updated history of conference anti-harassment work in the skeptic community (with some related events from the science blogging community), adding the events from October 2013 to September 2014. Part of anti-harassment work is giving credit where credit is due, so we hope you take a minute to read through and honor the many different voices that have worked hard to make skepticism more welcoming, sometimes without recognition or fanfare for years.

Remember: Conference anti-harassment campaigns do work – they “just” take several years of dedicated effort to succeed.

I donated after the previous post today about this went up. I didn’t give a lot, but at least it’s something.

Impressive. They had something like $1800 to go earlier today, and now they’ve passed the goal with another 8 days to go.
