For nearly a decade, digitalundivided has served as the primary pipeline propelling women of color into innovation and entrepreneurship. As true believers in a world where women of color own their work, we never doubted the heights that Black and Latinx women could reach. In fact, the very mission of our organization is to push for inclusivity and economic empowerment of underserved innovators.
As we extend our congratulations to President-elect, Joe Biden and Vice President-elect, Kamala Harris, we recognize that having representation in the White House speaks volumes about the progress this country is making toward creating a more equitable world. This historic moment is systems change at its finest. It is our hope that our nation’s collective cry for change this election cycle begins the dawn of an era that sees more opportunities and investment in Black & Latinx women.
We will continue to support Black and Latinx women entrepreneurs. We will continue to fight for the inclusivity and economic empowerment of Black & Latinx communities. And as an advocate for marginalized communities, we look forward to seeing more policy in place to empower the communities that are hardest hit by this year’s global pandemic. The next generation of innovators are counting on us.
