why should I care about diversity?
why should I care about diversity?
why are people so upset about this?
why are people so upset about this?
is it really as bad and widespread as people say
it is?
but isn’t the problem the pipeline?
isn’t doing outreach to a specific group
isn’t that discriminatory against the majority?
why should we have to lower our standards to increase

but isn’t tech a meritocracy?
we’re all adults, why can’t we just be nice to

how do I help without speaking for people?
thanks! @ashedryden @indirect
