The lack of diversity in the tech industry is not new.
And when thinking of underrepresentation, it can be easy to fall into the trap of grouping people with vastly disparate experiences under one umbrella. This isn’t always bad, as sometimes it allows members of different underrepresented groups to uplift others from outside their immediate spheres, but it also runs the risk of flattening those disparate experiences.
