I can’t be silent.
I am a guy working in the IT and I feel priviledged for being male, for being white. Something’s gone wrong and we have to fix. These privileges shouldn’t have existed in first place.
I stand against inequality and racism and I will do whatever I can to make the difference, from adding these few lines on my website, to spreading the word online and offline, to donations and direct support.
Big changes start from small actions.
If you believe in true freedom and equality, please join me.

This is not a one-off. Change requires effort and dedication, it will take time, but we have to start, together, now.
I will update this page as needed.
