I checked length on JavaScript Kit, knocking out all the inessentials, and measured its length at 1,817 characters. Rather an interesting article; it never occurred to me to wonder if African-American female students faced any particular barriers in learning coding. Two petty observations aimed at improvement: 1) changing "during after school" to "in after school" would clarify that sentence; 2) the term "Black Girls Code" could be linked in the body of the article as well as in the lead. Still, this article is GTG on all counts. Let's speed this onto the front page for Women's History, shall we?
