Wanted: Black Female Hackers #BlackHack

Think of a relatively small subset of the population – like Black people in the United States.

(It’s okay. This post is not ‘racial’; more like post-racial.)

Okay, now whittle that subgroup down… to Black women in the U.S. Then narrow the group to U.S. Black women who are programmers or software developers and… um… where’d everyone go? Get it? The number is small. Understandably, the few there are might feel all alone. Well… until now. Coming up is the #BlackHack: a hack-a-thon for Black women programmers put on by Black Girls Hack.

‘Inspired by Black Girls Code in San Francisco, four women founded Black Girls Hack to inspire African American women (and girls) to be software developers and startup founders … and to gather, communicate with, and connect all those who already are.’

– John Koetsier, Venturebeat

The event – expected to bring 100 Black women developers and entrepreneurs together – will take place in Atlanta on November 16 and 17 (very soon). Mailchimp has signed on to be primary sponsor for the #BlackHack.

So… looking for women with brains who are about their business, are you? A’ight then.
