Sinopsis
In this episode we hear interviews from the HackHer413 event, a hackathon for women and non-binary students organized by students at UMass Amherst. I speak to organizers Shreya Sharma and Shreya Sawant, and participants Alina Valdez, Elsie Eigerman, Isabelle Tjokrosetio, Shruti Jain, and Raveena Mewani. We hear about hacks like dialect-detection software, an app to locate gender-neutral bathrooms, and more! The event drew over 300 participants and dozens of sponsors for its launch in February 2019. I'm joined in the studio by comedians Sophie Allen and Monk Danger to chat about the interviews and the event. Enjoy!
