The move comes just days after NVCA, the lobbying group representing many major venture firms, announced Venture Forward, a non-profit arm focused on promoting diversity and inclusion in the industry.
"We've all lived through too many versions of this, in 2016 and otherwise, and we felt like we needed to express those emotions, albeit raw, and begin to put some stakes in the ground around initial imperfect but concrete actions to address them," Vassallo said of the effort. "There's no topic people in tech are more afraid to broach than race," Ngo said. "We don't make progress if we don't talk about it, but it makes them uncomfortable. It makes us uncomfortable. I'm still waiting to see how we will inadvertently get dragged for not doing enough, but it's the right thing to do and it's important to do."
