**accountability** our previous updated policy missed out antisemitism, we are sorry for the omission, we oppose all forms of oppression and oppressive systems. The previous post is archived, replaced by this one, which also features an added paragraph on photography in slide 2.

UPDATED SAFER SPACE POLICY
Provided with help and inspiration from
@ywmpoxford and
@pyxlssss
Our goal is to provide the safest space possible for everyone joining us here.
It is important to emphasize that most of the genres we play were created/ impacted and led by the work of marginalized people. These also include genres that were specifically made in opposition to oppressive systems and circumstances. It is impossible to separate the music from these contexts and because of this there will be ZERO TOLERANCE of Racism, Homophobia, Transphobia, Islamophobia, Antisemitism, Queerphobia, Misogyny, Fatphobia, Classism or Ableism. We expect everyone entering this space to be respectful to everyone around them. Your space is valid, but be mindful of the space you take and be generous when sharing it.
(Slide 2)
This extends to photos and videos, we do not operate a zero-photography policy but please try to ensure the comfort and consent of anybody you photograph.
If someone feels unsafe we will take measures to deescalate the situation and remove anyone who is causing harm.
If you see or experience any form of harassment or discrimination, if you feel able to, report it to one of us either in person or by messaging

ACCESSIBILITY
The current venue for Hyperstition is sadly not wheelchair accessible. There are 3 separate sets of stairs to get down to the venue space. The toilets are located on a separate level from the venue space and there is no accessible toilet.
