@USAccelerate @BlueprintLocal @KauffmanFDN @villagecapital @rossbaird

And @ShayImpact @mattzieger and @DahliaHJoseph have been thoughtful and supportive collaborators on the @villagecapital side. ✨

I want there to be more examples of intentional, equitable, sustainable collaborations between groups like these. 🙏🏾

This has also been an experiment in working across difference. @buildwithbia and @villagecapital have come together to help strengthen and fortify pillars of the Black tech ecosystem, while also navigating what healthy partnerships between Black-led and white-led orgs look like.

As I said in this no-holds-barred piece:

ESOs have spent years squeezing blood from a stone while trying to get our seat at the table. BIA is us saying, “Fuck it, we’ve just built this table and you can have a seat at it, if you step correct.”

@villagecapital has stepped up.

Grateful today + always for the JTA community. 💙

To our Members, Advisors, donors, partners, and friends - thank you for pushing justice tech forward.

#ThomsonReuters, #AmericanArbitrationAssociation, #VillageCapital, #Everlaw, #Dream.org, #OmnusLaw.

Wishing you rest + connection this season. ✨
