Again, this is just a brief note on what happens when intentionality & real intersectionality are removed. ReedPop, PennyArcade & SfaC made these decisions despite access to the experts who previously designed & set the room. What does "Welcome Home everyone." mean if you don't fit inside? 9/9

A picture of a Banner for the PAX Together Intersection that reads
Welcome Home, everyone.

PAX Together is your connection to game-enjoyers from all walks of life; it's our way of elevating and celebrating marginalized, underrepresented, and stigmatized groups in the gaming culture.

What is the Intersection?
The Taking its name from the term coined by Kimberlé Crenshaw in 1989, Intersection is a community space within PAX Together designed to provide welcoming place for attendees to connect, gather, and celebrate the many identities represented within acceptance gaming. Here, and inclusion expectation, not the exception. a are the

What do we do in here?
meet with your fellow community members, check out and try a game together, take part in group activities and events, and Learn more about organizations and affinity groups doing work to uplift and support our communities right here where we live!

The Intersection welcomes women, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, disabled, neurodivergent, and other members of historically marginalized communities, as well as allies.

Picture 1 is The Intersection at East 2026. Picture 2 is The Intersection at #PAXWest 2026 Notice how we used round tables that were spaced out with plenty of room? That is because round tables are better for community. They allow everyone to see each other. They make it easier to move. 3/9

(I included alt txt since the op didn't) So while @officialpax.bsky.social still keeps The #PAX Together Intersection pages up for both West and #Unplugged it is clear that the version of the Intersection that was centered on opportunities for BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, & disabled folks is gone. 🧵 1/6

SfaC is honored to be stepping into a new role supporting The Intersection at PAX West 2026.

SFAC

We recognize the importance of The Intersection and the years of work that have gone into making it a meaningful space for Black, Brown, Queer, Disabled, and other historically marginalized and stigmatized members of the gaming community.

In May, We submitted a proposal to PAX to support the Intersection space, and we learned weeks ago that our proposal was accepted. We want to be transparent that The Intersection at PAX West 2026 will not be a continuation of the program exactly as it has existed in previous years. We do not currently have the capacity or resources to recreate its previous scope of programming and services, and we don't want to promise something we cannot responsibly deliver.

Instead, our goal is to carry forward the spirit of the space by creating a welcoming community room where people can gather, connect, create, and feel represented at PAX.

We have intentionally developed community programming and will share more details leading up to PAX!

We know this transition comes during a complicated moment, and we understand that people may have questions or concerns. We have tremendous respect for the people who built The Intersection and the community it has served. Our goal is not to replace that work, but to help ensure there is still a space at PAX where marginalized and stigmatized members of the gaming community can find connection and community.

This is a new chapter for the room, and we intend to approach it with care, honesty, and respect for the work that came before us!

It is also worth noting that Leeah was the person who sorted out panels, workshops, cosplay and community rooms. Technically The Intersection wasn't even in her job description. It is so wild to have someone doing so much for so little and then scapegoat said person. Text book Pet To Threat

Y'all this is a new thing at UChicago Hospitals and as a trauma therapist I am so excited by this program! If done well this breaks down major barriers for people who have anxiety and trauma but don't have anyone to come with them. I'm harsh on my alma mater but this is a good new initiative.

A flyer by UChicago Medicine about their chaperone program where people get an advocate for sensitive exams and can also have one for any exam.

The chaperone is a trained member of staff who can help advocate and be extra eyes on your comfort and wellness.

For adults you can decline.
Adolescents and young adults must have one
Children 9 or younger can have a parent as a chaperone

The last Flag you don't see but is important to Black USian history is the Black American Heritage Flag designed in 1967 during the civil rights movement by Melvin Charles and Gleason T. Jackson. 4/8

A picture of The Black American Heritage flag.
It was created in 1967 by Melvin Charles and Gleason T. Jackson.
The gold-colored blunted sword represent "the feeling of having pride and also knowing, when you have a blunted sword, when you blunt it you learn to curdle the earth," he continued, "the wreath, which we also had in the color gold" symbolized peace, prosperity, and everlasting life. Red was chosen to represent the "rich blood we shed for freedom, justice, and human dignity, and the color black was for the pride in our pigmentation.

And the seemingly most common colors I see Juneteenth corporate using are the original Pan-African Flag colors which are red, gold, black and green and are popular in flags across the African continent as well as used as a second color set for liberation and unity of African people globally. 3/8

A graphic made by bsuofmhs about the Pan African Colors.
The colors:
Red for Blood of people with Black African Ancestry that unites us and has been shed
Black for black people and our strength
Green for the natural wealth of the land of Africa
Gold/yellow for the wealth and treasure of Africa

It is Juneteenth. I feel it is pretty important to remind everyone that the Juneteenth flag colors are Red, White and Blue ON PURPOSE. The corporate marketing that uses only African Freedom and Pan-African Liberation colors feels like erasure. So let's talk about Black African diaspora flags 🧵1/8

A graphic about the Juneteenth flag
The colors: The colors of the American flag – red white and blue
This is to say that the people freed in Texas were American citizens
The 5-point star is a symbol for Texas (the Lone Star State) where the Juneteenth holiday started and to represent the spread of freedom to all 50 states.
The star burst represents a nova as a symbol of a new beginning.
The date June 19th, 1865 is also printed on the flag
