Works for me as an umbrella term. I'm not sure what you'd want to change it to, if that is the concern.

I've also been happy with u/Defasher's moderating it.

My only problem with it is that PoC is an umbrella term, and that we don't have many more focused forums that cater to more specific oppressions. But this will only happen with a wider userbase.

For example, we quite strongly need f/blackness and (though it is not necessarily a strict matter of race) f/islam. And I'm sure that there are potentially very many divisions of race antagonism that could get attention beyond that.

Any suggestions for literature to add to the sidebar?

I'll think about it. There's nothing really offhand I can think about that is applicable for the umbrella term.

There is the Black Anarchist Reader, and the 500 Years of Indigenous Resistance comic book, both are big but kinda manageable. I'll keep an eye out.

In the meanwhile, links to other forums might be helpful if you like, e.g.

f/indigenous
f/Decolonisation
f/Africa
f/Palestine_and_Israel
f/South_Asia
f/EastAsia
f/Whiteness
