This year she would have been 40 🧵⬇️

“Safiya Umoja Noble, @[email protected] on Mastodon, Dr. Joy Buolamwini , ruchowdh.bsky.social , and Gangadharan have been calling for regulation for years, as soon as they saw the harm automated systems have on marginalized communities and people of color. But now that those harms could extend to the broader population,

We are coming!!

Had to make a return visit to the fabulous Falafel Shack in Chambersburg PA…this time, in addition to the Bosnian coffee, I had the special farmers market lamb sausage pizza, baklava, and on-tap grape kombucha. Another spectacular meal from incredibly kind & generous people. ❤️
