Today and everyday we champion justice and celebrate joy. Juneteenth is also a reminder to continue resisting oppression in all its forms. Because even after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed in 1863—the work of abolition was far from over. We still have work to do to fight inequity. Code builds our tech, and tech builds our society. But less than 2% of STEM roles are held by Black women. That means an entire demographic is missing from the rooms where our future is shaped. Tech needs more Black voices. Black Girls Code ensures that Black girls believe they belong in tech, as we educate and launch them with the skills, opportunities, and resources to lead. Celebrate #Juneteenth by joining our mission. Together, we can make real change. www.wearebgc.org. #WeBelongInTheRoom #BlackGirlsCode #WeAreBGC
