noticing our dominance and standing aside

Those of us with privilege (dominance in some aspect of our identity, such as being white, or heterosexual) need to notice just how much space we take up - our confidence meaning we can sometimes take over conversations/speak out at events without noticing who doesn't put their hands up/participate in everything generally when others don't feel so welcome to do so.
I think this idea here is fab:

I asked a guest blogger to write for me today but sadly she's not able to (holding her in my heart especially at the moment). Instead can I encourage you to go to the link and read a story or two there (currently in comments at the bottom but that may change once the synchroblog is up and running today). Thankyou.
