"My parents told me to just keep my head down and work hard"- me and every AAPI immigrant who was treated poorly growing up. Amen @darrenwalker! This is is why @taaforg's work is so important to help us coalesce, claim our voice, and build bridges in our democracy. #TAAF #AAPI

"Like childbirth, there’s no one right way to build a business. We need more guides — doulas — to help us along the path that feels right for each of us."

#rfbreakthrough @marylgray's warning: "It's inevitable that we will reproduce biases in AI systems - it's not a risk. We must actively work to surface the biases we just deployed." Eye-opening discussion to develop AI that benefits all @RockefellerFdn #bellagioAI @SonalRShah

YES! @TheDanaBuzz of @heronfoundation: capital allocators must #stumbleforward! There is no perfect #impactinvesting strategy. Co-create with communities, be #servantleaders, and deploy your capital already! Thanks for great insights @SonalRShah @BeeckCenter #beeckideas

I say to everyone who supported other candidates in the primary and to those who may have voted for Donald Trump in the last election:
The future of our democracy is at stake.
The future of our economy is at stake.
The future of our planet is at stake. #DemConvention

Powerful parable by @jimsedu @bluemeridianp on the path necessary for systems change:
"2 men stand by a river when babies start flowing down the river. One starts pulling babies out of the water. The other runs upstream to see where the babies are coming from." #JFFHorizons

Want to see what it's like to try and vote in Ward 4 today? This is the line at Emery Rec right now. Unacceptable @MayorBowser unacceptable.

@roybahat on #impinv "Impact is a way of doing business not an industry. You can have an insurance company that's noble and an education company that is exploitative." Yes! great questions @bahiyahyas on the @VCInclude X @BloombergBeta #futureofwork discussion
English

Erik Moore @basevc on @VCInclude x @BloombergBeta's #futureofwork discussion happening now: think about what won't change post-COVID in addition to what will. Culture at work will matter even more.
