Shireen Mitchell, the founder of Digital Sisters and Stop Online Violence Against Women, knows firsthand the challenges women of color face when interviewing for jobs in the tech industry. That is, if they can land an interview at all. "There's a clear bias — some people have said this to my face — [that] it's not possible there's a woman, a black woman in particular, who could possibly do any of this technical work and do it well," Mitchell said.
