Philosophy gender war sparked by call for larger role for women

"It began with a private email last month from one established male philosopher to four others: Proceed with a Berlin-based conference that features 14 male speakers and no women, the writer said, and I will essentially launch a campaign to take you down professionally."

I wish tech would make the same commitment.

I've seen individuals in tech make this commitment.

Startup Monthly is running a tech conference in the fall and half of the speakers are women.

Definitely you should get to know Dave Nugent there.

He also started the WeWork coworking space in San Francisco.
