How we show up
Respect makes
room for belonging.
Community conduct expectations for BLK TLK gatherings and connections.
Care. Consent.
Accountability.
Come as you are. Respect others.
Welcome newcomers and different adult life experiences. No status-based selection. Harassment, threats, discrimination or unwanted sexual attention are not acceptable.
Honor boundaries.
Ask before touching, photographing or sharing someone’s image or personal information. A declined invitation or a “no” needs no explanation. Photo participation is optional and separate from membership.
Share space thoughtfully.
Make room for different voices, listen without belittling, respect venues and follow confirmed event-specific expectations. Take responsibility for how your behavior affects others.
Raise a concern.
At an event, ask an identified host for help when available. For a private concern pathway, message BLK TLK’s verified Instagram and ask for the appropriate founder contact. Do not share sensitive details or allegations publicly; a dedicated concern inbox has not been provided for this preview.
This channel is not an emergency service and no response time is guaranteed. If there is immediate danger, contact local emergency services.
