On this day in 1931, a segregated Georgia hospital refused to admit Juliette Derricotte, Dean of Fisk University, and one of her students after a serious car accident. They both died as a result. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. calendar.eji.org/racial-inju…

This week a Thai American was MURDERED, a Viet grandmother was assaulted & a Fillipino American was slashed across the face. Mainstream media does not spotlight our stories. Racism Kills. @CNN @MSNBC @maddowshow @andersoncooper cover us! We are dying to be heard. #justiceforvicha

"I urge people to wake up and choose love. I know that sounds really corny, but the opposite of love isn't hate, it's apathy... There is a new Asian-American movement emerging and we are not going to be silent anymore. We are not your model minority. We are human." @nguyen_amanda

A male entrepreneur might be described as “young and promising” while a female would be described as “young, but experienced.” These disparate attributions lead to disproportionate funding. Read the full article: The paradox of the female entrepreneur. ▸ lttr.ai/XGWO

I regret that we failed to steward @SunFoundation forward. My closing hope is that failure is not received as a lesson. Organizations must grapple with their legacies of exclusion, toxicity, and harassment. Funders should support the work. Boards must be accountable and engaged.

Super interesting that this is trending, but I'm not seeing much engagement from the VC class. Hmmm. Would anyone like to make a statement?

If it is “un-American” to train federal workers to view racial inequities as the result of racist policy and not inferior peoples, then how would Trump describe an American? Trump is saying to be an “American” is to be racist like him and deny it like him. washingtonpost.com/politics/…

We know voting can be a bit confusing this year, and with concerns over the Postal Service, we're seeing a lot of information about vote-by-mail that's not quite right.
