Those participating in the victim-blaming and saying these people should have done their research, well here's some research:

finance.yahoo.com/news/meet-blac…

afrotech.com/mytechbestfrie…

businessinsider.com/tech-educator-…

bamtheagency.com/blog/101-black…

Now there is also negative info out there too, but the average person sees these type of articles, the countless "testimonials", and her being supported by other big names in #BlackTechTwitter and you tell me what probably made them feel like it was a somewhat safe choice.

I guarantee they saw these and not your Tweets buried in your timeline.

Mary also told students to used MTBF on their resume & LinkedIn not as a bootcamp, but as an employer.

Dishonest.

Dishonest.

She told students to embellish their experience, added experience where there was none, and follow a script for interviews. 

Dishonest.

Anyways, there are countless threads from actual students on what was going on. Y'all now go do YOUR research and actually hear the truth.
