Being a Black Woman in the Tech Industry (ft. Amina Aweis)

This week, Mim and Sara sat down with Amina Aweis from Develop with Amina to talk about her experience being a Black Woman in Software Engineering. We talk about Amina's journey (she worked in film first!), where the tech industry is right now in terms of diversity and inclusion and what Amina believes needs to be done for the industry to improve. We also talk about some of our experiences of feeling like the token POC, microaggressions and how these have manifested in the workplace.Make sure to follow us on Instagram: @thegrowthmediumFind all our references and further reading on our website: https://thegrowthmediumpod.wixsite.com/home/post/s2-episode-2Check out Amina!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yeahshewrites_/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNvmrkupu7a5vFFvO_migCghttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNvmrkupu7a5vFFvO_migCgTwitter: https://twitter.com/yeahshewritesThe Black Muslim Girl: https://www.theblackmuslimgirl.com/blogIntro/Outro Music By: Silent Crafter - On the Line Hosted on Acast.
