BLACK LIVES MATTER

We stand in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement. We believe that technologists must not be silent in the fight to end racial inequality.

We ask you to stand with us and help educate your team members and those in your network on how to help dismantle a system that oppresses Black people. Find a list of starting resources here:

• Let's get to the root of racial injustice by Megan Ming Francis
• What Leaders can do for Black Employees by Dr. Akilah Cadet
• Hey Employers: Do Black Lives Matter? by Pariss Athena
• Algorithms of Oppression by Safiya Umoja Noble
• Rage Inside The Machine by Robert Smith
• Technically Wrong by Sara Wachter-Boettcher

In solidarity, we ask you to consider financially supporting efforts such as Black Lives Matter, The Equal Justice Initiative or local charity organizations.
