Editor's Notes

Happy Monday, Baltimore!

 

Somehow, we have just a few days left of June, aka our Racial Equity Month. We'll certainly continue reporting on issues of systemic racism and access in local technology communities beyond this month, but if you have an idea for a story, or an impactful initiative we should look into, or a report we should read, or an expert we should talk to in relation to this theme — or if you want to write a guest post on a relevant topic — let us know.
