This is awesome. Great I depth stories! The only issue is I've spent most of the morning reading these stories instead of working 😟

Can I submit photography projects? It's a product — certainly relevant to the Product Hunt audience and beyond, and with as much care as any downloadable or installable app... Nice work @helena! This is kind of like a yearbook of Silicon Valley... but with WAAAAY better photo quality.

I am so stoked for this. Helena has been teasing this project for a few months and it immediately peaked my interest. Hearing about others' experiences and struggles is so important, especially since many of us create products. I'm really glad she created this and I hope it grows into much more.

The underrepresented community now has a powerfully army of large voices thanks to you @helena. I *especially* love the tag system.
Laz Alberto
The amount of depth is absolutely incredible!
Eric Willis
@lazalberto Yeah. These go deep.
Ben Halpern

Brad Weaver
Incredibly proud of @helena and I hope that our entire community takes even a bit of time to see what our industry really does (and should) look like.

Man I feel like I need to take some time off from work just to read through all of these. I'm going to need to pace myself. Well done @Helena 👏

Quality over social justice any day of the week. I count 8 "buttons" that would add any value at all. The rest are nonsense.

@eddraper underrepresented people are not nonsense.

@eddraper I'd say you're missing the point of the project, but looking at your twitter timeline (since you cced me in a tweet), it's apparent you're just one of those alt-right clowns.

@jtown_ @eddraper social justice >> everything else.
『Justin Pierce』
@charlesjo still amazes me that there are certain kinds of people that use the term "social justice" as a pejorative.

Empowering other is the greatest work anyone can do. Awesome stuff @helena! 👏
Jeremiah Johnson
Wow..I love this!
Taras Poburynnyi
Interesting! I haven't seen similar projects before, good luck!
Have you thought about including minority groups such as Europeans, Israelis et al...perhaps including greater cultural diversity outside of the US would make the list more comprehensive..not all of us are from America you know!
