Are you tired of technology leaders and organizers using inclusion and diversity as the latest marketing buzz words to garner attention? For far too long many of our technical organizations, communities, and events have been unsafe, unwelcoming, and unapologetic environments for members of underrepresented and marginalized groups. Thankfully, I was recently reminded that success is seldom gained by asking permission.
