Join us as we honor and hear from boundary-breaking women that made history in entertainment and technology. As Uhura on the original Star Trek TV show, Nichelle Nichols became one of the first African American female characters portrayed on TV that was not a servant. The Queen of Blaxploitation films, Pam Grier was the first African American woman to star in an action film. As a senior engineer at Slack Technologies, Erica Baker is one of the few African American women to hold a senior engineering position at a major tech company. She is a leading advocate for diversity and inclusion in tech and tech education. Moderator: Leslie Miley, Executive Residence @ Venture for America, former director of engineering at Slack, and more.
