99.7% of Venture Capital money goes to people that are not Black women.
0.3% of Venture Capital goes to Black women.
The *11th circuit court* cited civil rights law when it said that it is racist to stop anyone from having access to VC based on their race, and that setting aside VC for people of a given race is racist.
So they ruled *against* a group of Black women looking to give their own money to Black founders. For violating the civil rights. Of white men that want that 0.3% too.🙂🙃
