#WhoFUBU Doctor Who For Us By Us

Doctor Who fan community for BIPOC by BIPOC that centers, celebrates, and supports BIPOC fans and creators.

We exist at the intersection of multiple, oft-marginalized identities and that is reflected in who we choose uplift and hold space for. #WhoFUBU is a community for fans of Doctor Who come from historically-excluded communities, including: BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, Disabled* and all intersections therein. It is a fandom within a fandom that centers and prioritizes BIPOC voices and experiences.

Mission

  • Provide a safe space for BIPOC within the larger Doctor Who fandom.
  • Facilitate connection between fan creators of color.
  • Create and promote Doctor Who fan content made for us by us.
  • Uplift and support Doctor Who fans of color who are advocates for social justice both inside and outside of fan spaces.

What This Is

#WhoFUBU is an inclusive space that prioritizes Doctor Who fans of color.

If you identify as Black/BAME, Indigenous, and/or POC this space is for you. If you are a part of other marginalized or historically-excluded communities—LGBTQIA+, Disabled—this space is for you. If you are white, this space is not for you but you are welcome to join if you acknowledge that:

A space that is not for you is not a space that you are excluded from. It is a space where you should observe before engaging and actively work to decenter yourself.

What This Is Not

  • A space to reinforce unfair power dynamics or perpetuate racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, and other bigotry. We enter this space as equals and are expected to engage as such.
  • A space to be shielded from valid criticism. We hold members of the community accountable for problematic or harmful behavior and engage in good faith.
  • A space to shill. Please do not treat this space as a target for advertising or spam.
