7: The Priority Problem by The Intern published on 2016-07-28T17:36:40Z It’s been on my mind since day one. I talk to Anil Dash, technologist and long-time diversity and inclusion advocate. But first, I chat with betaworks CEO John Borthwick about D&I, as well as recent grad and Twitter hire, Terri Burns.

Shuddered when I heard the statement "If we find a great candidate that is a white dude, should we no hire him." Not hiring that person because of the colour of their skin or sex is always the wrong answer no matter the cause. We need to approach diversity problems without becoming the people we are fighting against, the ones that judge people by sex and skin colour, the ones that don't hire people because of those factors. 2016/08/01 23:22:26 +0000
