This is bad, and it shouldn’t happen. It goes to show how VCs are missing out on talented founders and large markets due to gross incompetence and lack of fit with founder market. We must fix this!https://twitter.com/jasminecrowe/status/1222540498994372608 …

Racism, sexism and other forms of conscious and unconscious exclusion has been par for the course since venture first began. It will take conscious effort to root these value destroying tendencies out of our industry.

Doesn’t make sense to me. Talent is talent and sex, race, religion etc should honestly be irrelevant when it comes to the subject of raising investment. If you got it, you it and if you don’t you don’t. Super surprised that VCs take this into consideration!

VCs, especially early stage ones often invest on "gut" or what gets them "excited," but the type of people and ideas that are more likely to get them excited are ones that sit closest to them. They tend to ignore things outside of their narrow experiences.

As founder, is it even worth entertaining those VCs or just speaking directly with people who tend to be more open minded?

I don’t think it’s ever worth it to risk potential dehumanization for money. Speak to the investors most closely aligned with your company vision and values first. Do your best to understand what kind of investor/fund you are speaking to.
