Argues that small exclusive groups increase diversity in larger communities by giving minority members confidence and practice speaking up, citing PyLadies and Women and Games as working examples; recommends concrete tools: mailing lists and private contact addresses for safety reports, regular monthly scheduling, an AV-capable venue or intimate space, and co-organizers to split work; urges allies to respect requests not to attend and to promote groups; stresses leaving mingle time before and after meetings for community building.
