Plural Group History: 1989 - Present

Tuesday, July 14, 2020 - 10:30am - 12:00pm EDT

Content Warning: Mentions controversies and in-community fighting, historical issues and backlash, oppression, various types of systems and the different struggles of the plural community to develop culture.

A history of plurals building communities together during the age of the Internet (including support groups, newsletters, conferences/conventions, and BBS records, plus various online spaces). In the process, we will cover the history of terms such as "system," and "median," discussion of in-system relationships, fictivity, and trends and controversies on various platforms. The focus will be on the communities we know most about: medicalised multiples (MPD/DID/DDNOS/OSDD/etc.), Soulbonders, multiples who reject medicalised or trauma classification (natural/endogenic/empowered/etc), will also some touch on median/mid-continuum discussion.
