So -- I'm thinking of creating a thing to share about bipedal/mobility privilege -- as a YouTube video and, also, maybe a Flick'r slideshow, and also a series of all-text posts-essays. I figure, done once in one format, should be relatively easy to convert to another (especially since the "video" will be made from still images, anyway, and those images will mostly be panels of people talking with speech and thought balloons)...
So: If I break this up into a series, of maybe three minutes of video / 600 words of text sized chunks (guesstimate):
Question 1:
A] Should I devote the whole first chunk to what I mean by "privilege" and why I think it's a good thing, but people have hang-ups about it, 'cause it's also a complicated thing (and some of what makes it complicated, including the privileges I do have, and those I don't, and how they balance out)?
B] Or should I just touch on my chosen metaphor for privilege (I.E. VIP Pass and the Red Velvet Rope) at the beginning of the first chunk, and leave the nuanced discussion of privilege-in-the-abstract for another time (so the first chunk will have some talk of privilege and one or two examples)?
C] (Facetious) Does anyone else have the urge to spell "privilege" with a 'd', same as "knowledge"? Or is that just me?
Question 2:
A] Should I group privileges together by theme (I.E. "architecture," "transportation," "education and employment," "public assumptions and manners")?
B] Or should I mix-and-match?
Question 3: The list of privileges I came up with on December 10: http://capriuni.dreamwidth.org/608976.html had 21 items, 3 of which I "borrowed" verbatim from "B-tch on Wheels" blog (I did not reword those at the time because I was working quickly; I will reword them if I include them this time around).
A] Is 21 items a good number (leading to a series of maybe five or six videos)?
B] Or is it too much (depending on how you look at them some are redundant)?
C] Or is it too short?
Um, yeah. That's all of what I'm wondering at the moment...
