Re: An Anti-Racist Reviewing Heuristic

Thanks for these insightful guidelines, which could potentially help minimize all forms of bias, including ableism. My writing has sometimes been criticized for traits which stem from my MS-induced neurodivergence. Although the anonymous reviewers were (presumably) unaware of my disabilities, such criticisms nonetheless struck me as ableist insofar as they targeted ways that my brain functions differently. The heuristic is a powerful way to encourage reviewers to be more accepting of diverse forms of self-expression, prose style, and structure.
