Ah I tried searching for this but didn't see it. Thanks!


It's hard to find this kind of dupe because it's the same story coming up in quite different locations. Users are good at flagging such cases, though. We're probably going to extend HN's software to make that kind of flagging more explicit.


Black female founders truly play the game at (probably) one of the highest possible difficulty settings. Looking forward to seeing some of them succeed spectacularly.


This is garbage. So a group representing less than .14% of startup founders doesn't get VC? Most startups don't. Running a startup is hard work and, if you're lucky, you succeed. This has 0% to do with gender or race.
