“Even if you disagree with their actions, feeling kindness towards another is not precluded” 🙌💚 @caitelatte at @everythingopen

They also recognise burnout as a barrier to working empathetically — it’s hard to give energy to another when you have nothing left for yourself. See this meditation resource they rec from the Open Practice Library: https://tinyurl.com/OPLmed

“Why Open? Because control is dangerous.” @Trishh at @everythingopen

Adding that libraries must be responsibly Open “If we want things to be Open, we have a responsibility to ensure everyone in the community has the ability to understand how to access these things safely.” 💯🙌

Another amazing @everythingopen sesh. On the ethics of Open in her pres Everything Open All At Once, @itgrrl asks us to “think hard about the choices we make, the values we hold…

Are we thinking more about what we could rather than what we should?”

“We are a society that is paying for its inability to understand mental illness in its hospitals and prisions.” Oof! 🔥 @emmadavidson on Open justice within a justice reinvestment framework at @everythingopen “Better managing trauma & mental abuse can reduce existence in the justice system.”

We need more data. We need better data. We need Open data. To be able to turn this around.

“Justice is what love looks like in public” (qtd in ED’s talk).

“Libraries have always been part of this ‘open’ idea… but they don’t quite realise they are also part of tech,” says @saera at @everythingopen “The digital divide is pushing the underprivileged further and further away.” Libraries are a point of connection helping bridge this divide.

Opening keynote @everythingopen is perfection 🤌 @daedalus steps us through redesigning the system of #OpenSource for sustainability and has the crowd echoing “The purpose of a system is what it does”. So, what does our system do? Is that our intended purpose?

Dr. Leslie Forehand, Ed.D. in her #calOER2024 sesh on the role of OER & tech in higher ed: “Despite the ‘no cost’ label of OER, there are hidden economic factors that may prevent equitable access such as the need for a device and internet access to use these resources.”

This year’s #calOER2024 conference opens with a bang! @cablegreen’s keynote “Shifting to Community Owned & Operated Open Knowledge” launched us deep into the heart of current #OER issues. Key takeaway: “Buy what we need, own what we buy, share what we own.”
