We are saddened and angered at the events that have unfolded this week. We stand against racism and hate. Here, we’re sharing a non-exhaustive list of orgs and resources we& #39;ve found the most helpful in the Chicago tech community. 1/5

Locally, support and follow orgs like @blacktechmecca @imblackintech @graymatterexp @reworktraining and The Brave Space ( https://www.wearethebravespace.com/ )">https://www.wearethebravespace.com/">... 2/5

Commit to reading and listening to black authors and artists: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ffsB6mzGdOlHztJOCyFjFLYcfpP7l6H5UrV45tz42eg/mobilebasic">https://docs.google.com/document/... 3/5

If you can hire someone underrepresented, hire them full time. If you can’t hire someone full time, hire an intern. If you can’t hire an intern, mentor a student or founder. (See resources for hiring on the @chicago_blend website, including a list of URM Board candidates.) 4/5

Again, we know these recommendations aren& #39;t exhaustive. We& #39;d welcome suggestions we& #39;ve missed. 5/5
