In 2020, just 2.3% of VC went to fund Female-led startups. In H1 2022, just 1.2% of the $147B in VC funded Black Founders. Let’s change the narrative of investing— while talent is equally distributed, opportunities are not. Proud to be on the Investment Team with @TechstarsDC!

💎 founder wisdom from @sabakarimm: thinking for yourself and not being swayed by the winds around you.

🤔🧐 access to a digital identity isn’t equal— lots to consider before we choose convenience. thanks for these thoughts and posits @hackylawyER #atwhatcost

Incredible! We need to resource and support each other and this seems to be a promising initiative in the right direction! I can totally feel how lonely and isolating can be as a founder or an aspiring VC, especially if you're from a minority group.
Excited to share the launch of Resource co-led by @villagecapital & @buildwithbia! This nationwide project will back the ecosystem leaders who back entrepreneurs of color.
