This week another groups article, Code Switch by Janet Abbat brings out some attempts at what making coding more accessible to many different types of communities might look like. I wanted to look more into TransTech and do some investigating on their website.  It is clear that they engage heavily with teaching computer coding to trans people and offer many job training packages. What I wanted to see, and I guess what Abat is claiming they do, is get trans identifying people jobs at technology firms. Whats missing from this respective website is how successful they are at this endeavor and what companies they have been able to reach. I also wanted more testimonials and clips of real people, perhaps some video updates of what past TransTech associates are doing.

I think, in all seriousness, that it will probably take more time than one conceptually wants to imagine to make these goals more mainstream and attainable in the computer science sector. I am also cautioned to believe what “diversity” does exist in the CS field. I have recently been in conversation with a friend currently taking a sociology course about Asian Americans and the significance in which even though they are largely represented in the computer cluster they are seldom ever anything other than entry level programmers or developers thus falling victim to these “model minority” tropes elicited by the technology cluster.
