ChrisI've been helping run a club on my campus, but there's something that struck me today: we have had zero - yes, ZERO - PoC come in and give talks in the year I've been on. We have also had zero women speakers, zero LGBT+ speakers. Just the regular cis white dude, and I'm tired of that atm. I want some color, some perspective. So, this is a call for communication.
If you identify as a PoC, woman, LGBT+ individual or as a part of another marginalized group and are interested in giving talks on tech please contact me, because I would be interested in getting someone in for a talk.
I guess this is the point where I ask for help. If anyone familiar with Rust would like to work with me on a library for the Mastodon API please reach out to me.
