May 31st will be our last day serving an incredible community of Black and Latinx technologists, and we will spend the next few months sunsetting our operations. We are angered by the systemic racism that continues to thrive in the tech industry and sad to say goodbye, yet we trust that our work for racial equity will continue with all of you.
