A staunch advocate for inclusion, Mark Hughes founded DINUX due to the lack of diversity in the UX Design community.
By taking his experience of pioneering diversity in predominately white fields that until recently, been open to people of color., he can help others navigate these new experiences
MARK ON MARK
I went to Middlebury College in VT, majored in Russian, and European History. I was one of 25 black people at the college in a field of 35 people of color among a student body of 1,200.. I was never more content in my community and never felt excluded (nor let exclusion be an option). It’s now my turn to teach others how to embrace themselves and the ever-changing world we occupy today.

The All-American Girls Professional Baseball League becomes the first A a professional baseball league for female players, 1943
Women had been playing professional baseball for decades: Starting in the 1890s, gender-integrated “Bloomer Girls” teams (named after the feminist Amelia Bloomer) traveled around the country, challenging men’s teams to games–and frequently winning. As the men’s minor leagues expanded, however, playing opportunities for Bloomer Girls decreased, and the last of the teams called it quits in 1934. But by 1943, so many major-league stars had joined the armed services and gone off to war that stadium owners and baseball executives worried that the game would never recover.
The All-American Girls Professional Baseball League was the solution to this problem: It would keep ballparks filled and fans entertained until the war was over. For 12 seasons, more than 600 women played for the league’s teams, including the Racine (Wisconsin) Belles, the Rockford (Illinois) Peaches, the Grand Rapids (Michigan) Chicks and the Fort Wayne (Indiana) Daisies.
The AAGPBL disbanded in 1954.
