Recently, I have posted a number of articles and podcasts that reference the work of others. In doing so, I have not appropriately acknowledged the source of the content nor the people who created the work I referenced. I have passed this work off as my own, when it is not. I have shared work, concepts, processes, ideas and intellectual property that are not mine to share.
This is plagiarism and in breach of both copyright and explicit agreements made. My ignorance is no excuse, I commit to remedying this and ensuring that everything I share is done so with permission and appropriate referencing. To those whose work I have misappropriated and to everyone I have mislead, I am deeply sorry.
I have been learning more about my role in perpetuating an individualistic, capitalist, patriarchal ideology and paradigm.
I commit to learning more and doing better when it comes to understanding and dismantling this destructive system through what I write and share and through my work and actions in general.
Thank you for listening,
Michael
