WORDLE: A LOVE STORY |
|
Happy Valentine's Day! |
|
Not all of us can whip up a viral word game as a token of our affection, like Josh Wardle did for his partner Palak Shah. But we can all benefit from Josh's gift of love, named Wordle as a play on his last name. You can read the full story of Wordle's genesis here. And if your Valentine's Day is a little raunchier, try Lewdle. Whatever your pleasure, we hope you have a lovely Valentine's Day! |

Black History Month |
|
February is Black History Month, and we are continuing our work in the realm of anti-racism. We just completed the 21-Day Racial Equity Challenge, which encourages you to do one action daily to further your understanding of power, privilege, oppression, and equity. The actions are bite-sized videos, articles, podcasts, and more and generally don't take more than five to 15 minutes to complete. |
