#JuneteenthVC At Neoteris, we contributed 0.5% of our equity at series A to charitable causes through a non-profit organization. That contribution resulted in a significant windfall for those causes, when Neoteris was acquired.

#JuneteenthVC June 19th celebrates the end of slavery. But the flurry of recent cold-hearted killings of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery and others remind us that we have a long way to go towards fulfilling the spirit of the 13th Amendment.

Listening to @SamaraMHernandz on @StartupGrind virtual & her VC firm @ChingonaVC is a shining example. Portfolio includes 60% women founders + 40% black founders & she's just getting started. #JuneteenthVC #venturecapital #diversity

It's great to see the @nvca owning up to the industry's lack of racial diversity and committing to change! We need representation in VC to stay on the cutting edge of innovation and serve everyone https://t.co/8DOzKqQcOu #diversityinvc #juneteenthvc

Alone, any actions that a single firm announces would be quickly forgotten. But if we join our voices in chorus—like the global protests—perhaps it will sound long-overdue change. And instead of a moment, this will be the start of a movement. #JuneteenthVC

We plan to mark Juneteenth w/ a day of action in ventureland. We hope other investors & startups will join us. To do so, simply share any commitments to combat racism & make our industry more welcoming you’ve made, or plan to make, w/ the hashtag #JuneteenthVC on or by June 19.
