Issa Rae is always rooting for everyone Black, especially in areas where they have been notoriously underrepresented. Her latest move is a testament to that.
According to a recent announcement, Rae will keynote Black Tech Week, an annual conference focused on equity in tech.
“We’re looking forward to hosting Issa Rae as our keynote speaker for Black Tech Week 2023,” said Candice Matthews Brackeen, CEO, Lightship Foundation in a statement. “Her dedication to promoting diversity in the tech industry along with her remarkable achievements in entertainment, truly embody the spirits of solidarity and success so central to the Black Tech Week experience. It’s going to be an inspiring and unforgettable event!”
Black Tech Week was founded by the Lightship Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Lightship Capital, a venture fund founded by Brian Brackeen that focuses on bolstering Black businesses.
