I'm really excited to see the results of the interview that I did with #TheNewStack.

It turned out great! Even gave some good shoutouts to some communities we're heavily invested in!

Some of the quiet work that Black Folks do in tech on top of their jobs.

Also that anguish of becoming comfortable as an ONLY has to suck.

Signed a fellow ONLY in my role.

I hope folks in the US remember this #MemorialDay, Since 9/11 - more service members and veterans die by suicide than combat every year.

I'm a veteran and I struggle with depression and PTSD. I lost one of my brothers-in-arms and groomsmen to drug abuse and suicide. There isn't a week that goes by where I don't think of him; today I write this through ... https://kjaymiller.com/microblog/202405272047.html

It has come to my attention that some folks don't understand why we use the words "Colored" or "Coloured" for some of our community members. It's very important.

I want to thank everyone who donated. In the end we raised over $15,300 from over 280 Donations at #PyConUS!

This will contribute to building communities, giving Pythonistas a chance to lead initiatives and support a lot of conferences who want to see a more diverse Python community.

Our plans have been so well supported by this partnership and so far it’s been pivotal in our growth and future plans!

I also love their approach to letting us cook and how they are already learning from us. https://floss.social/@gnome/112480847710129801

I’ve avoided directly being on a conference organizing committee because of this “trope” happy to hear this along with @brainwane sentiment that “you are allowed to quit things”.

I may reconsider my involvement in organizing https://mastodon.social/@jonafato/112475938443265184

To clarify we try to make sure our teams are diverse by gender and geography.

This prevents a monoculture of thought and reduces the “I had no idea this would a make a particular group feel unwelcome” https://fosstodon.org/@nicksspirit/112479546737456440

@blackpythondevs folks should learn more from Jon! A great way to avoid it feeling like a trap is to have support of other organizers. You can find that at https://conferencechats.org https://mastodon.social/@jonafato/112475938443265184

We’re hoping to launch a Documentation Team to help us write better policy and documentation around what we're doing.

We need mentors!

If you're a documentation expert or help maintain policy docs for a tech organization and want to help @blackpythondevs let us know!!
