In my new piece for @Slate, I wrote about why we should see algorithmic bias as a feature of technology, not a bug.

How do you feel about training to create Black-Centered Inclusive Design?

@AMcManaman @DrChairington @KishonnaGray This class sounds amazing! I am not a gamer but I am still salivating. Do you have supportive supervisor/direct report for dealing with student evals in a productive way?

[Inclusive Research by Design® @ByInclusive]

An important question!

[Inclusive Research by Design® @ByInclusive]

Something every industry should consider is creating an ethical framework for their particular common core-set of industrial technologies! Learning technology practitioners are doing this in the UK! Inclusive Research by Design can help your industry do this as well.

A very large data set now demonstrates that the LGBTQIA community in STEM faces discrimination that causes many to exit STEM careers, see sociologist @CechErin 's paper https://t.co/xvK8gPDmc6

A while back @4sweb 2017 in Boston @logandawilliams gave a paper on the "inventor-executive" gap for Black women in the US. Similar commercialization pathways for ophthalmologist Dr. Patricia Bath's 1986 LaserPhaco and Alice Parker's 1919 natural gas ducted heating system?

This interview is a great example of how engineering students learned throughout this semester to LISTEN to the community members when designing for them. https://t.co/VZb5ms4pGh

UNC's decision to deny tenure to @nhannahjones is absurd & a reminder of how hard some work to deny the hard truth that is Nikole's life work & the 1619 Project. She is a Pulitzer Prizer winner & a MacArthur genius. What more needs to be said?

Less than two weeks before the 100 anniversary of the Tulsa-Greenwood Race Massacre, the House is holding a two-panel hearing today. The first panel will feature three survivors, including Viola Fletcher the oldest survivor of the Tulsa race massacre.

[BlackInEngineering @BlkInEngineerng]

@TiffNFord I vote for share and bless somebody.

It took 19 months for me to raise $500k for my filters. I just upped my goal to $1M, because every day the water crisis in America gets even worse. If they can raise millions in a few days for a wall, and millions for Kyle Rittenhouse then so can I.
