Episode 12: A chat with Mercedes Bent - BLM & VC

A great chat with Mercedes Bent of Lightspeed Venture Partners. We talked candidly about what it is like for her in the world of VC as a woman (especially a woman of color). We also chatted about #BLM in post-George Floyd era as well as the impact of the loss of Chadwick Boseman in the age of COVID-19.
