I wish, I wish, I wish people who think unpaid internships are okay thought about how the very concept is discriminatory. Not everyone is in a financial position to be able to do them, and it disproportionately affects people of color.

@VolvoGroup ) paid internship quite handsomely.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
