Diversity group ends Y Com ties over Thiel's Trump support
Silicon Valley diversity initiative 'Project Include' has cut ties with incubator Y Combinator after venture capitalist Peter Thiel pledged to donate $1.25 million to Donald Trump's Presidential campaign. Project Include Co-founder Ellen Pao called the donation by Thiel, who is a part-time partner at Y Combinator, "a direct contribution to creating hate and instilling fear."
