#NPRBlacksinTech Launches

MICHEL MARTIN, HOST:

And finally today, if you heard our programs last week, then you might remember we are launching a special TELL ME MORE social media series on Twitter. Well, today is the day. From now until the 20th of December, African-American art to bring doors innovators and techies from across the country will use the #NPRBlacksInTech to tweet a day in their lives.

Senior executives from Fortune 500 companies like Bank of America and General Electric, a scientist from Stanford and a physicist in New Jersey are just some of the people taking part. We're hoping the series will give you a glimpse into the lives of these innovative but largely invisible individuals and help us tell their stories. You can follow the conversation by using the #NPRBlacksInTech on Twitter. That's our program for today. I'm Michel Martin and you've been listening to TELL ME MORE from NPR News. Let's talk more tomorrow. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
