Content

We're taking advantage of the big weekend of anime conventions that just took place to talk about how well cons support marginalized attendees. What are they getting right? What could they do better? How could cons better attract feminists/allies?

However, we also want to know which cons you'll be at, because Team AniFem will have a convention presence this year and we want nothing more than to be able to thank our patrons in person! If you're planning to be at a con this year, please let us know - we'd love to meet you.

[AniFemTalk] How inclusive are anime conventions? - Anime Feminist

It was a big weekend for conventions, with MCM Comic Con in the UK, Anime North in Canada, Fanime in the US, and no doubt many more. Cons should be - and usually are - a positive experience, but we know it can be a mixed bag for marginalised attendees.
