As I read this I was getting more and more hyped up wondering why they didn’t mention AllGo (especially spying AllGo as the source for one of the stock photos used) or Ample, the two services that existed as a directory for safe spaces for marginalized bodies...then I found out that Ample has gone defunct and it appears that AllGo has changed their mission! So this directory is so, so needed!
And I am devastated to find out that the two aforementioned organizations no longer keep up their database of crowdsourced reviews for fat-friendly or fat-unfriendly spaces because I used it quite a bit.
Also, thank you for providing a transcript for these interviews. I have trouble processing audio but every interview has been so amazing, I really appreciate that I am not missing out.
Yes, I know there have been a few attempts to create a resource like this and should have acknowledged previous efforts by name. But there really is not a great option right now. It’s so frustrating! Thanks so much for reading and so glad to know the transcripts are useful!
