Do People With Most Marginalized Voices Get Priority?

Question

In the beginning of the movement, I thought I read somewhere that people with the most marginalized voices would be given the priority to have their voices heard by Occupy in the GAs, etc. - like in stack they would be bumped up. Can anyone confirm and maybe point me to where this is documented? I would really appreciate it, thanks!

Answer 1

Assembliese use "Progressive stack" where people who haven't spoken or appear to be from marginalized communites get to speak before people who normally would talk first (ie. straight white men).

However, it has been brought up that the whole process driven assembly structure is off putting and marginalizing.

Drew,
Off putting and marginalizing....exposing white male discontent by lack of acknowledging white male priviledge.
