I appreciate your videos. As the parent of a trans daughter, I have experienced this at a church we attended for a short time. They claimed to be welcoming, loving, not rejecting us, but they needed me to understand that they have "policies.". They would not use her preferred name or pronouns and wouldn't put her name on a prayer request list. Church folks couldn't come to our house if she was there because they had to "protect" people. This was beyond hurtful. I'm so thankful that we found a church of truly welcoming people.

OMG, when you were listing work sitcoms I was like, I need to tell him to check out Better Off Ted. Rewatched recently, still brilliant and ahead of its time!

Spot on as usual. I wish more places wouldn't immediately get so defensive and feel like they are being accused jut because someone points out an area for improvement.

This work so well for ableist too For everyday life...as for church I just avoid it. Between being over-praised for breathing despite my disability and low-key demonised because I'm queer I prefer experiencing my faith at home

As parents of a special needs child, my wife and I have been unable to find a church to attend for years. They all act welcoming, but the best they can do is put us in the nursing mother's room to isolate us until the service is over. Needless to say, we haven't been incorporated into any church communities either. At least we have Veggie Tales.

So glad to see a new video. And an excellent reminder. Our church is in this process now, and so we have two (well qualified) LGBTQ members in our leadership studio.

During the worst of the Covid epidemic in 2020 and 2021, I wore nitril gloves because I have a slight latex allergy. Those gloves happened to be black. While trying to wash my gloved hands in public bathrooms ( yes, that was done at the height of Covid), I realized that the sensors that turned on the water did not recognize the black gloves. No matter how much I got close to those sensors or waved my gloved hands, the water did not come out. When I switched to clear gloves, the problem went away. So, yet again, parody cannot keep up with reality.

There were soap dispensers and other things which had trouble discerning darker skin tones, and also facial detection Recognition algorithms that basically treated all asian people as the same... So yeah, that sitcom situation definitely could happen in real life

It's an interesting topic. I used to work with an eyetracking machine that used the contrast between the dark pupils and the light scleras to determine where the eye was and where it was looking. However, it could get confused. I had a young woman come in once and I could not get the machine to stay focused on her pupils because it kept getting "confused" by her dark eyeliner. We were warned that the same thing could happen with darker skin, but I'm glad that I was never in the situation where I was unable to get the machine to work for a person because of their skin color.

As a left-handed man, I’ve been experiencing this kind of discrimination so regularly that I’m used to it 😂
