Hey folks (especially policymaking kinds of folks):

@marknewberg, @hbuffett, @KateMcCrery, and I wrote something with the help of @TPFimpact and a few other very fine thinkers and doers.

We hope it's helpful: https://t.co/suPvgLnKdz

Great news. @KaporCapital is raising a new fund, first time accepting outside capital.

@unolil is involved, so y’all can expect success here (IMHO .. but, it’s well informed in this matter, having known her for years, so take note of this opportunity). 😁 https://t.co/CWnHWzihQT

So proud today of my city, our lawmakers, and our community. Black women are 1.5 times more likely to be sent home from work b/c of their hair. 80% of Black women also change their natural hair to fit into their workplaces. @NiaWeeks @HelenaMorenoLA https://t.co/HlOdITunkh

@cschultz @launchpad I redesigned digitalundivided’s programming for our sessions to be virtual on Kajabi, and it’s been great! We’re hosting our events there, launching our online community for Black and Latinx women founders, and building a digital content hub.
