Message to institutions on equal opportunities: "Stop wasting genius." - @vanjones68 #dml2015

Silicon Valley teaches its teams to fail forward. That should also be true of giving opportunities to people who don't have them. #dml2015

"We're giving people the space and the opportunity to try, and we can't be afraid of failure." @mariateresa1 #dml2015

"We pretend we have diversity in the United States. We don't. We have bubbles that touch." - @vanjones68 #dml2015

"We're only 5% of the world's population, but we have 25% of the world's prisoners." Important equality stats from @vanjones68. #dml2015
