I don’t think diversity training can fix this.


Great thread alert!

What’s something that FEELS like diversity and inclusion in tech but isn’t?



👀👎

I just reviewed 4 proposals for an engineering design/construction project. Each one submitted 8 key personnel resumes. Guess how many of the 32(!) resumes are females? Hint- it’s above 1 but less than 3... yep 2/32. And they were both the same firm. MORE WOMEN IN STEM PLEASE! 😑

I asked folks in my network what it feels like to be Black in Tech and this is what they shared with me ... a thread 🧵

Wondering why Canada has a 30by30 project to support #women and achieve 30% licensed #engineers be women by 2030? This graph shows why: in 26 years, women’s representation in #engineering #education has increased very slowly. Proactive intervention is now needed. @PEO_HQ

Not sure who needs to hear this: You are not overwhelmed. You are overextended.


Same questions for engineers in general- looking to open some dialogue to expand on our recent article on allyship!

White men in tech - What finally made you understand what "privilege" means? I'm looking for resources to share in my Business and Ally newsletter. Thanks!

Latest EngGirlProblems blog post by @AlvinPilobello about Male Allyship in the Disrupted Engineering Workplace. While originally written with male allyship in mind, we can all listen and show up more for all of our colleagues in the engineering workplace. enggirlproblems.com/allposts/2020/…

Heya! If you've never asked why we need white men in tech, please stop asking why we need diversity. We deserve an equal opportunity to be in tech just like you.

.@NASA is renaming its headquarters after Mary Jackson, the organization's first Black female engineer. #WomenInSTEM 🚀🚀🚀 nytimes.com/2020/06/24/sci…

This pandemic is exactly why I hated group projects in school.

Is it “cancel culture” or is it just repercussions

My biggest achievement yet- (NERVOUS) me in @CityHallLabour alongside directors, researchers and CEO’s talking ways to tackle inequality in stem. This is my response to #blm - working on positioning myself to internally push for change #WomenInSTEM #womenintech #BlackTechTwitter


Same goes for workplaces.

Hey faculty - when students point out the lack of diversity and inclusion in #academia, replace: "I've been doing [xyz] to promote diversity and inclusion." with: "I will work to do better because the current efforts aren't enough." #AcademicTwitter #phdchat #phdlife

Last week I shared how microaggressions can feel like ‘death by a thousand cuts’ in (and outside) of the workplace and talked about my recent growth on Instagram with the @nicolevassell for the @Independent — read more here: independent.co.uk/life-style/mic…

'It really chips away at your self worth, and it’s harder because the instances seem so small.' Me for @Independent / @IndyLife on how microaggressions play a traumatic part in everyday racism, ft. @AveryFrancis & @Dr_SJRennalls ✊🏿 independent.co.uk/life-style/mic…
