Action Alert | According to R/Finance, There Are No Women

We’re loving and hating this share from Avenger Cindy Gallop. We love the comment thread and the fact that the financial backers of the R/Finance 2018 conference were called out, but we hate that it needed to be done at all. And don’t think we missed the fact that, after public scrutiny began, two sessions were added to include women… making the final count 94% men, 6% women. Too little, too late.

When you start at zero, adding three women speakers just isn’t enough to create balanced discussions. Do better next year #rfinance2018, because you’re on @GenderAvenger’s radar now. h/t @cindygallop #genderavenger https://www.genderavenger.com/blog/action-alert-rfinance-no-women
