Plan out your schedule for #msignite next week. Sessions are mostly locked with times and rooms identified. Don’t forget Labs have an RSVP option to save your seat, but if it’s full, you can still go and join the waiting list that opens 10 mins before doors close for any open seats.

Stay FLEXIBLE.

In the absence of DEI programs, it's up to all of us to make a difference. It kind of always has been.
As a white woman who's never had her name be a disadvantage, this was amazing to watch.
