I worry about these issues a lot, being a Back female in the web/tech industry, and knowing of other Black web/tech professionals and the issues they face. Some people like to pretend the nuances of racism are not existent in these situations, but they are. I don't let them hold me back, or bother me too much, but you can't turn a blind eye to them either. I am so glad you wrote this entry.

I don't mean that race should be ignored: cultural history is very important. It's good to know where you came from. However, if a person shall be judged, let it be so by his or her actions and accomplishments and personality and relationship to other persons rather than by physical characteristics. <i>Pax, Nelson</i> I look forward to the day when race need not even be an issue or concern.
