EchoEd is an open-source education project centered on African and African-American history. The community must be respectful, inclusive, and careful with culturally significant educational work.
Participants are expected to:
- Communicate with respect.
- Welcome educators, developers, students, organizers, and reviewers with different levels of technical experience.
- Give specific, constructive feedback.
- Respect boundaries around unpaid labor and review capacity.
- Be careful with historical, cultural, and identity-related claims.
- Credit contributions when requested and appropriate.
- Follow accessibility and inclusion expectations in docs, UI, and learning content.
Unacceptable behavior includes:
- Harassment, intimidation, threats, or personal attacks.
- Racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, ableist, or otherwise discriminatory language.
- Dismissive treatment of educator, student, diaspora, or community perspectives.
- Publishing private information without permission.
- Using demo accounts for abusive, destructive, or non-demo purposes.
- Repeatedly demanding unpaid labor, review, or response from community members.
- Misrepresenting EchoEd's current maturity, review status, or educational authority.
Because EchoEd deals with African and African-American history, participants should treat content review seriously. If you see a historical accuracy issue, source concern, cultural framing concern, or accessibility issue, report it through the relevant issue template or contact path.
