summary

Panelists report concrete effects: people remove HBCU and cultural affiliations or change names and one panelist gets more interviews after using her middle name; bootcamps such as Code Talk, TechHire and TEALS run free cohorts, give laptops and place graduates into jobs; a ticketing platform (Ucrowd) is in production and selling tickets; recruitment uses bots, LinkedIn filters and biased training sets so facial‑recognition or graduation‑risk models risk harming students; community orgs hold 94% clients of color and manage billions in housing value, so hiring and paid internships are urgent fixes.
