Hello and welcome again Righta podcast in regards to the startup business where we discover the numbers and nuances behind the headlines.
That is our Wednesday show, where we concentrate on one topic, reflect on the query, and unpack the remaining. This week, Natasha he asked: What happens when a black founder is removed? Alex she returned to the mic after per week away and we brought in Dominic-Madori Davis (follow her on Twitter AND Instagram) to debate the subject with us. In spite of everything, the important query was inspired by her latest TC+ column.
That is what we got ourselves into:
- The growing tension in Black Girls Code began last December with Bryant’s “indefinite suspension.”
- Bryant’s final ouster earlier this month and a surge in public support for the leader. This conversation made us realize who can speak publicly and who can only do it off the record and without citing a source.
- Davis’ article on the symbolism of removing a black founder from a position of leadership.
- Innate biases and how one can cope with them within the stories we hear and the guidance we receive.
