I’ve been looking for a course like this! Finally. Thank you @BeeckCenter 🙏
.@BeeckCenter has built out a course on digital products -- what they are, how they come to be, & what they look like in a government context. Looks like a great way to build some fundamentals. https://t.co/jORM78mwpb

All the time, energy, and effort my team poured into making this fellowship a reality paid off last night. Beyond proud of what we accomplished as a leadership team AND of what these amazing women accomplished as fellows. Now watch them take over the world. 🌎
The CfP Tech Fellowship for Underrepresented Technologists, sponsored by @comcast, concluded last night with the fellows giving their final presentations at Hack Night! ✨ Congratulations to our fellows Lynn Jean-Louis, Elizabeth Johnstone, & Kate He on completing the program! 🚀

When people say that the prison industrial complex is slavery re-created, this is what they mean. The prison and criminal-legal system are profit-making apparatuses that must be abolished.
Incarcerated people produce $11 billion in goods or services a year, including fighting wildfires and working on penal plantation or roads. 4,000+ companies profit off prison labor. Federal prisons make $500M/year selling goods made in prison. Workers are paid an avg. $0.52/hr.

As we close out #NationalDisabilityEmploymentMonth, it’s important to remember language matters. You MUST know what language is and is not preferred to communicate effectively with people with disabilities.

Good morning from my balcony in Buenos Aires! 🇦🇷 Fun fact of the day: Argentina was the first Latin American country to recognize LGBTQ+ rights and to also make same-sex marriage legal 🏳️🌈

❤️😭 too cute, can’t handle it
Miche, After 30 years, I’m not sure why you look exactly the same and I don’t. I do know that I won the lottery that day—that I couldn’t have asked for a better life partner. Happy anniversary, sweetheart!

Three appetizers, including a lobster one, two rounds of craft cocktails, and a main dish… all under $50 each for 3 people. I may be moving here.
