Technology Tuesdays: Technology and Black History Month
The most memorable Black History Month is when I have an opportunity to take a moment to reflect on events in my life and how the people we celebrate during Black History Month have impacted them.
This month, I want to focus on technology and how its progression has shaped our lives in ways we never would have imagined. I want to highlight the contributions of Black Americans who have made that technology possible.
Technology Tuesdays: Technology and Black History Month
This year, for Black History Month, instead of celebrating the folks that entertain us, I would like to take a moment to celebrate the achievements of folks that have made contributions in areas that make our lives better each day.
A Close Connection: HBCUs and the Clean Energy Industry
Happy Black History Month! Have you ever thought about how colleges connect to the clean energy industry? Specifically HBCUs? The connection is much closer than you think.
Happy Black History Month!
I am excited for another opportunity to celebrate this month and to share experiences with you all. Over the years, in the spirit of Black History month, we have celebrated African American individuals that have greatly impacted our communities and also talked about the importance of celebrating Black History Month. Last year’s article talked about why representation matters and why it is important for us to tell our own story. This year, I would like to expand upon one of the ideas initially touched upon in last year’s article and explore its impact on all of our futures.
Celebrating Black History Month in the EE World
In light of this celebration, there are two things I feel compelled to talk about. The first being the importance of Black History month and the second, which more closely aligns with the goals of our organization, is the inequity in environmental and climate justice.
