The thing I’m wrestling with lately is that this seems to be the life cycle of a Black woman raising any concern:

1. Disbelief no matter what evidence I show.
2. Dismissal of the concern and generic platitudes.
3. Being left isolated.
4. When people realize you were correct they expect you to teach them all about it. But for free though because your experience should be riches enough.

It’s a lot to take in and I’m wearing out. But even though I’m saying that right on this post ya’ll will jump right into this cycle. So let me prepare for platitudes.

Microaggressions & systemic racism manifest in many ways. The idea that white is right & whiteness = professionalism coupled with hypervisibility and racialized micromanagement - not trusting that something can be done just as well a different way is harmful and exhausting. 8/8

Metadata can quietly limit your visibility in the digital age

It's only now I've started programming that I appreciate how up to date and properly formatted metadata can be the difference between being seen and unseen online

Sometimes I find planning, documenting and communicating product requirements in software projects challenging as a junior developer ✍️

This explanation of the differences between incremental and iterative development is one of the most useful I’ve found
