In this SXSW session, Black Girls CODE brings together a stellar panel of women of color in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math) for a lively discussion on technology and social activism. The panel highlights the transformative work that Black Girls CODE has embarked on over the past seven years to bring girls of color into the field of tech as transformational change agents. The session features a cross-section of current BGC students, alumni, Founder and Executive Director of Black Girls CODE Kimberly Bryant and leading WoC role models discussing how we utilize a broader conversation on intersectionality to create more opportunities for girls of color in STEM and to drive social change movements powered by technology.
