 Editor’s note: The ability to see and appreciate the common humanity in all of us is a gift. When someone can only see groups of people as others, our response cannot be to judge them but to recognize the suffering that possibly underlies that sense of otherness. I’ve come to recognize that often times those who hold themselves apart sometimes need our compassion and empathy even more. |

Now, she’s connecting those worlds through Hack the Hood, a nonprofit that introduces people of color to tech careers. Since 2014, the program has attracted more than 200 young minorities from local, low-income neighborhoods to learn skills such as website design, coding, social media promotion, project management, public speaking and more. The 16-25-year-olds use their skills to help out small businesses. Hack the Hood was part of the 2016 AllStars program that celebrates social entrepreneurs who power solutions with innovative technology. { read more }
