Our Mission
Secure the bag
Establish guidance, mentorship, and career support for Black Python Devs Members
Diversity By Inclusion
We encourage members to get involved beyond participation. Members can become maintainers, maintainers become leaders.
Extend their reach
Great programs exist. Our goal is to help those programs make it our local communities.
Say it loud!
Our stack and our decisions are open source by default and we share what we're doing as loudly and often as possible.
