Race and gender obviously play a large role in diversity but more important than these two factors is this: "The color of your ideology". Diversity at this level is what drives innovation. It's what challenges our perceptions and acceptance of what is and allows us to imagine and create a new reality. It can simultaneously drive, force and facilitate innovation.
Sabio.la has recently launched to bring developer bootcamps to those underrepresented in the software development field in order to drive this innovation.
We are in the midst of a contest to win $100,000 in seed funding and need your vote. Please vote for us here (https://myla2050.maker.good.is/projects/Sabio) and share with your network.
You can learn more about us and sign up for a bootcamp at https://sabio.la
