Well, according to Adria Richards: "Black people CANNOT be racist against White people. Racism is a position of the oppressor who has the power". http://imgur.

Well, according to Adria Richards: "Black people CANNOT be racist against White people. Racism is a position of the oppressor who has the power". http://imgur.com/xPztO6k http://imgur.com/xPztO6k I don't think Adria represents women in the industry, or anyone other than herself. I feel sorry for SendGrid, PlayHaven, the developer who lost his job, and the fact that this is distracting from the real issues of sexism in technology. I don't feel sorry for Adria. She represented her company in a grossly unprofessional manner by publicly naming, picturing, and shaming (including the use of "ass clowns" to describe them) two developers. You don't have to be sexist to be unprofessional. I just hope SendGrid has their lawyers ready to deal with the potential fallout of firing her.
