Rock on @WhitWolfeHerd! https://t.co/aLape3f9Gz
I’m so over parading the mediocrity and unremarkableness of whiteness out as something worth striving for

Again, she’s NEVER had to compete
Also, I’d love to talk about the harm I know is happening on her platform due to its biased, discriminatory, and racist algorithms https://t.co/SyTFzhCp7F
Really enjoyed listening to @WhitWolfeHerd on the @HowIBuiltThis with @GuyRaz podcast in 2019. How she turned her experience at Tinder to now a $13 billion company is nothing short of pioneering! Here’s the link: https://t.co/73e259Bng8 https://t.co/loBAEkDZjp

Impressive by any metric, but especially so given the persistent & extreme gender-based inequality in VC funding of startups. https://t.co/hIHyoxuIhg

“Wow. I guess you really can put a price on love.” @bumble https://t.co/AMwC3aZ9ek
The story of Whitney Wolfe and how she got kicked out of Tinder is so interesting. Read it and could only wish her well.

Making sure everyone remembers that WWH started Bumble after being sexually harassed and bullied at tinder and she took that NDA money and turned it into a $1B company. Do not mess with women. We are not here to play. https://t.co/i6ERQN0X6c

.@saraashleyo: "that @WhitWolfeHerd got @bumble to this point is significant in the larger push to diversify the venture capital and startup ecosystem so that men - and specifically white men - are not the only big beneficiaries and gatekeepers" $BMBL https://t.co/5PrUFei1lG

Been following Whitney for a while after I heard her story on the @HowIBuiltThis podcast. Our paths are very different, but knowing her story and seeing her succeed really inspires me. I want to see more stories like this.
