Have y’all seen this game called Parable of the Polygons? http://ncase.me/polygons/

It’s a spare, elegant game that shows that it takes action, not just good intentions, to end segregation.

I hope more people in tech will take up Mandela Schumcher-Hodge’s challenge to turn their energies toward solving real problems like these.

Game people: make a game that trains players to become aware of and overcome implicit biases.

Big data people: use your quant chops to expose the kind of predatory lending and mortgage-fixing scams that keep segregation alive and well in America.

App people: make it easier for consumers to find products from Black-owned companies.

Pixel people: make a stunning interactive that shows us, not just the horror of our situation, but what we can do about it.
