Hi, Joah Spearman here. I wrote the piece. This was a personal account, my account, on both my own journey to entrepreneurship, to Austin and to fundraising. I tried to touch on location, race, the business, raising money and a few other things that would help convey the position I&#x27;m in. Some people are downplaying the role of race or geography and I&#x27;m almost certain they&#x27;re probably not Black founders or in Austin. My goal with the post was simply to give a personal, open and honest take on my experience here. You wouldn&#x27;t find me commenting about the scene in NYC or LA from a local&#x27;s perspective because I&#x27;m not a local there nor would you see me doing a lengthy Medium post about how gender isn&#x27;t really an issue for women trying to raise VC funds. That&#x27;s not my experience. I shared mine, nothing more, nothing less. I appreciate you all for reading and sharing your commends&#x2F;feedback in the comments.
