📌ICYMI: Our Summer 2022 HBCU Fellows started their 10-week venture capital internship yesterday. 🥳

Last week, our HBCUvc family joined our new fellows in the Chicago, ATL, DMV, and Bay Area regions for some good food and great convo! 🍽

A big thanks to all who joined us! ❤️

@_theycallmechlo Congrats girl!

[Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @RepPressley]

By passing the #CROWNAct today, the House affirmed that Black is beautiful & so is our hair.

Whether you're a student, an employee, or our next Supreme Court Justice, you deserve to show up as your full self with your head held high.

[Kristen (she/her) @perfectlyk]

@_theycallmechlo Right? I feel like they used to but now just play stuff I’ve already saved 😕

[Jasmyn @JasmynBeKnowing]

I love seeing my friends on vacation.
They all work so hard.
I love seeing my friends rest.
