We need to have a conversation about erasure.
Its implications, what it does, how it embodies violence.
Completely removing references to groups of people (disabled, indigenous, LGBTQ+, Women) is a direct form of oppression and violence. These kind of tactics often precede violence and murders.

1) Why are these people being erased?
2) How can we protect these people from imminent threats?
3) How can we directly combat this erasure? (lawsuit? archiving?)
4) How can we indirectly combat this erasure? (bringing attention to it? making the groups visible ourselves?)
Please listen to those being erased.
