I&#8217;m helping with the kick off event this weekend which is a three day hackathon with historically black universities such as &#8216;Howard and Spellman and a group of worldwide participants. Yesterday I had a real pleasure of moderating a panel between United Nations assistant secretary general for Disaster Resilance Mami Mizori and my friend Ibm Director of racial equity Dr. Stacey Hobson. We talked about the intersection of racial justice and climate change.\u2026 It was a really good conversation and it will be aired this weekend. Today I got to watch a live conversation between former President Bill Clinton and Stacey Abrams from Georgia. They were both really amazing.
