does bluesky work for conferences yet...?
well, I'm already having the most amazing time at the 3rd Data for Black Lives #D4BL conference in Miami. truly Yeshi Milner and Fallon Wilson made me cry during the opening keynote, sooo 🥲
plus, excited + nervous for my workshop tomorrow! come say hi!
Okay, I'm at the #D4BL conference this weekend and hope to share some of my thoughts. So far 1) the dessert is awesome, 2) it's been a long time since I was last at a conference where I didn't know anyone, and 3) really cool black "We demand" wall/booth with a bucket of chalk.
Any updates on fire alarm? #D4BL @Data4BlackLives
