I would not be categorized as "BAME", so it would be great if someone/people who might have this term applied to them could review the definition. Also, I've said this is a UK term - is it used more widely?

@kittensyzygy BAME is a very UK/British-English specific version (which is great!). Here in the US, at least, other terms tend to be more in common usage, like BIPOC or POC. I put a call for review out in the Slack channel.

@tatianamac would you like me to do a call out in a UK based dev slack group that I am in if someone would like to review?

tatianamac commented 3 years ago

@MatthewShields Yes, please! I'd love that.

@tatianamac have shared now :) assume that they are all asleep / not checking slack at the moment but will check in the morning!
