In February, the White House hosted “Girls and Gigabytes,” an event bringing together 150 middle and high school-aged girls from across 15 states for a day of mentoring, panels, and workshops on STEM topics. As part of initiatives surrounding Black History Month, the event aimed to inspire African American girls, and make clear that they have access to educational opportunities and careers in STEM.
After hearing from a panel of African American women in STEM, moderated by comedian and talk show host from “The Real,” Loni Love, the girls had the chance to experience different aspects of technology. This included workshops on coding, virtual reality, gaming, building, and operating robots, and more.
The day concluded with an interactive conversation with Megan Smith, U.S. CTO, and Lisa Gelobter, The White House/Chief Digital Service Officer at the U.S. Department of Education. Both women shared stories about their journeys into STEM, and encouraged girls to try and make an impact on the world through science and technology. They also explained to attendees that having skills in computer science and other STEM fields can be brought to any field girls are passionate about from music to sports to education.
