WIST Quotations<p><a href="https://wist.info/adams-john/77846/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">A quotation from <b>John Adams</b></a></p><blockquote>The principal difficulty lies, and the greatest care should be employed in constituting this Representative Assembly. It should be in miniature, an exact portrait of the people at large. It should think, feel, reason, and act like them. That it may be the interest of this Assembly to do strict justice at all times, it should be an equal representation, or in other words equal interest among the people should have equal interest in it. Great care should be taken to effect this, and to prevent unfair, partial, and corrupt elections.</blockquote><p><b>John Adams</b> (1735-1826) American lawyer, Founding Father, statesman, US President (1797-1801)<br>Letter (1776-04) to George Wythe, “Thoughts on Government”</p> <p>Sourcing, notes: <a href="https://wist.info/adams-john/77846/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">wist.info/adams-john/77846/</a></p><p><a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quote</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quotes</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quotation</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=qotd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>qotd</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=johnadams" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>johnadams</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=congress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>congress</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=corruption" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>corruption</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=elections" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>elections</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=equality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>equality</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=government" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>government</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=representation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>representation</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=representative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>representative</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=government" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>government</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=votingrights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>votingrights</span></a></p>
Elena Rossini<p><a href="https://elenarossini.com/2024/03/the-power-of-visibility-redux/" class="" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://elenarossini.com/2024/03/the-power-of-visibility-redux/</a></p> <p>Two years ago, around the time my daughter turned one, I released a short film made in collaboration with Mimi Anagli:&nbsp;<a href="https://elenarossini.com/portfolio/the-power-of-visibility/?ref=newsletter.elenarossini.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><em>The Power of Visibility</em></a>. In the 4 minute film, we argued that women working in film (directors, screenwriters, producers and cinematographers) are largely underrepresented and underestimated. Popular media outlets in 2022 still mostly celebrated male filmmakers. Why was this a problem? Women working in film – or aspiring to – have a hard time being taken seriously and getting funding for their projects.</p><p>We released the film at the end of January 2022, along with an op-ed in&nbsp;<em>Women &amp; Hollywood</em>: “<a href="https://womenandhollywood.com/guest-post-how-the-worlds-largest-search-engine-can-help-fix-hollywoods-representation-problem/?ref=newsletter.elenarossini.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">How the World’s Largest Search Engine Can Help Fix Hollywood’s Representation Problem</a>”.</p><p>Mimi and I wrote:</p><blockquote><p>Imagine this: you are a 14-year-old with a passion for movies and photography. Maybe one day you could make a career out of it, becoming a cinematographer. You are curious to see examples of notable people working in the industry. So you go on Google and search for “cinematographer.” At the top of the page you see a carousel of 51 Google cards with photos and names of famous directors of photography. Most of them are white. All of them are male, except for a few cards. As an African American girl, you implicitly get the message that maybe this field is not for you — nobody who looks like you appears in the results. If only you could have seen or read about Kira Kelly — the first Black woman invited to join the ASC in 2020, best known for her work on Ava DuVernay’s “13th” and HBO’s “Insecure.”</p></blockquote><p>Watch our short film&nbsp;<a href="https://elenarossini.com/portfolio/the-power-of-visibility/?ref=newsletter.elenarossini.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><em>The Power of Visibility</em></a><em>&nbsp;</em>(running time: 4 minutes):</p> <p><strong>Rewind: my incredible visibility in Google search results (2019-2022)</strong></p><p>Searching for “film director” and seeing which results pop up in Google Images is something I have been doing routinely for years.</p><p><a class="" href="https://news.elenarossini.com/the-power-of-visibility-redux/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span>Click here to read the full story</span></a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://elenarossini.com/tag/collaboration/" target="_blank">#collaboration</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://elenarossini.com/tag/gender-gap/" target="_blank">#genderGap</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://elenarossini.com/tag/google/" target="_blank">#Google</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://elenarossini.com/tag/google-images/" target="_blank">#GoogleImages</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://elenarossini.com/tag/mimi-anagli/" target="_blank">#MimiAnagli</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://elenarossini.com/tag/power/" target="_blank">#power</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://elenarossini.com/tag/representation/" target="_blank">#representation</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://elenarossini.com/tag/representation-matters/" target="_blank">#representationMatters</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://elenarossini.com/tag/the-power-of-visibility/" target="_blank">#ThePowerOfVisibility</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://elenarossini.com/tag/visibility/" target="_blank">#Visibility</a></p>

Geoff ♞<p>Good morning. I had a very nice time at Cincinnati Pride this weekend.<br>Thoughts:<br>Corporate sponsorship of Pride in this political climate is significant (to me.) Companies and organizations that have representation and continue their support will continue to have my support and therefore money.<br>I understand it is business and money, but they are taking a calculated risk and showing their support when it’s no longer just another marketing segment with little to no risk.<br>Representation matters. I will continue to spend my money with those companies.<br>Regardless of CEOs with bajillion dollar salaries and other issues with corporate tax breaks and corporations with more rights and benefits than humans, there are smaller companies that don’t have the coffers to withstand retaliation from our government’s agenda. They are the legitimate sponsors and supporters and also need the community support.<br><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/pride" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pride</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/support" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>support</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/representation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>representation</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/money" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>money</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/opinion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>opinion</span></a></p>

Give an example of a project you’ve had to give up on.</p><p>Well, that requires some explanation.</p><p>Back in the early 1990s, TSR was on a "National Geographic" trip and produced a number of expansions for their <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/ForgottenRealms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ForgottenRealms</span></a> setting for <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/DnD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DnD</span></a> which were basically fantasy counterpart cultures to real world cultures.</p><p><a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Maztica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Maztica</span></a> , based on Mesoamerican cultures, was arguably the worst of these. The initial premise was basically a fantasy replay of Cortez' conquests of the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Aztec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Aztec</span></a> Empire, and it went worse from there - the locals basically had little agency of their own, their magic and technology was weaker than that of the "Mighty Whitey" invaders, and so forth.</p><p>My concept was to use the massive time skip between the 2E and the 5E version of the Realms to update the setting to a modern, postcolonial area, and give the locals their dignity back and make them the heroes of their own stories, instead of local color for explorers from mainland Faerun.</p><p>I did a lot of concept work I am still proud of and wanted to publish something on the Dungeon Master's Guild. But in the end, I wasn't sure that the original settings deserved being redone in that manner - and as a white European, I am probably not the best person to do it.</p><p><a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/ttrpg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ttrpg</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Mesoamerica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mesoamerica</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/representation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>representation</span></a></p>
