A Note On Accessibility.

A note on accessibility.

This time around, Taakitz Week is aiming for maximum accessibility! We encourage all of our participants to add descriptive captions to their image posts and transcripts to their audio and video posts.

To help with this goal, we’ve compiled a list of resources for captioning posts:

why is captioning important?

advice for describing skin tone

If you have any questions about how to caption a post, please ask!

If you post something without a descriptive caption, there will be a bit of a lag from when you post your submission to when it’s put in the queue. This is to give the mods time to check the notes of your post and see if someone has taken the time to caption it; unfortunately, we don’t have the ability to caption every post ourselves, so we’ll be relying on the great community of accessible podcast blogs to help us out.
