In 2018, if you wanted to know what was going on in the tech field in terms of inclusion, code newbies, and what underrepresented communities in tech were up to, you needed to look no further than these 200 phenomenal Black women! As many of you know, this annual list is a labor of love that I started curating in 2015, and published for the first time in 2016 as the 185 to Follow. Background: Black Women in Tech On Twitter I get no corporate funding or sponsorship or any other thing of monetary value for curating this list and so you know it is an unbiased resource. Since the first list was published three years ago, I’ve been asked why I only featured women on this list when the tech ecosystem is not inclusive of black men as well. Why Black Women? the list of 200 Black Women in Tech to Follow on Twitter was created out of a need to fill a specific and articulated void after I learned that Black Women (less than .02%), and in essence were located at the bottom of the totem pole and represented , much less than black men, white women, Asian American women and other marginalized groups. Not only did this group receive funding, it was on the staffs of tech companies and on other “who to follow” lists in tech. Out of exclusion comes a solution. My answer: were less than 1% of StartUp Founders receiving VC Capital the least not the least represented virtually absent I wanted all to know that we’re here too and to make it easier to “find us”, offer a list of the group least represented to draw from so that could not longer be an excuse as to why we were not included. I’m happy to note that since the initial list was published in 2016, many who were on it have gained their “Twitter Blue Check Mark” verification which, like it or not, is a marker of being an established account/brand on that platform. I’ve also noticed many have branched out and moved out of tech, left the Twitter platform and as such, or stopped tweeting much, which is fine but which meant keep the resource relevant and accurate, it needed to be updated. Why Twitter? Why Not? Before it was the current President’s social media platform of choice to reach large audiences, it was a hub for getting up-to-the-minute news, information and updates on any and every topic, and as such, is still the best means of finding out what you need to know about any and everything, including diversity and inclusion in tech! As stated before in a previous permeation of this list, unlike other social media platforms that may be a little more involved to navigate, Twitter feeds provide instant and quick resources and shared knowledge. Twitter is a great go-to source because active folks on that platform constantly share news, information, articles and events. Therefore, it is also a great starting point for anyone who is putting together a conference, compiling a tech list or looking for a consultant or to diversify a team. The women on this list routinely, and some on a multiple-times a day basis, share insights, information, news, photos, resources, programs, and other initiatives that are about/or target diverse communities. Their tweets also provide insight into the very active and productive tech inclusion world. There can no longer be the excuse that one “didn’t know they exist.” Methodology Selectees were chosen because they 1) have a non-private account; 2) share a variety of information, resources, links and events; 3) on an active basis; 4) that are not mainly self-promoting; 5) or automated tweets; 6) update their accounts regularly and often; and 7) tweet about tech, tech inclusion or tech-related content primarily; and 8) are doing pretty awesome things themselves in the field. Further, effort was put in place to ensure that those included were not accounts with the most following or who are already well celebrated but moreso women who are contributing to the collective effort to edify, educate and illuminate the online community of theirs and the contribution of many others. In 2017, I recruited a small team (including and PR Pro ) to help me pull off a little bigger list (we added 15 more to round it out to 200) and we were generously gifted a room at the on the campus by its CEO and my good friend to present the honorees of that year’s list a certificate to commemorate the honor. Slow Start: Elen Awalom Xina Eilend Inclusive Innovation Incubator Howard University Aaron Saunders In 2018, personal obligations slowed down all of our collective progress but techie and avid Twitter user jumped in to help keep the dream alive and thus,we were able to polish off this latest version before the folks in Hawaii celebrated the beginning of 2019! That was my goal! To get it done before year’s end! Somebody’s year end. Anybody’s! (laugh) Shari Hunt This 2018 year of Honorees includes a lot more code newbies and active members of the Twitter community that are Millenials, many who are college students and young professionals, innovators and founders who are under 25!! We wanted to maintain a robust list of active users of this social media platform’s most informative, influential and engaging tweeters. We also added a few vets in the industry missing from past years’ lists. What’s New: As usual you’ll find a cross section from developers to coders to EduTech evangelists to VC funders and mentors to BIG Tech alums and more! What’s Not New: If you are on Twitter, you can follow everyone on this list at once by following this FOLLOW ALL: Twitter List! Without further ado, these were the most active and relevant voices in 2018: A.
