Cyber Revolution Kindle Edition

Rosa Alvarez's personal hero had always been Valentina Tereshkova, the first woman in space. Why hadn't her country, the country of her birth, been able to send a woman into space? Her family was touchy on the subject. She was chided as a kid not to talk about Valentina because America didn't like Russia. Americans didn't like immigrants either, like her parents and older siblings.

Years later, Rosa found herself revolutionizing the tech industry by working towards gender equity in technical roles. This effort helped her company to break from a slump it had been in, and eventually led to her becoming the CEO.

Things were going great until Trump won the election. Rosa had to decide, could she set her beliefs aside and collaborate with the new administration? Could she allow her company's computers to be used to hurt Muslims in America? Could she put her company at risk to make a stand?

5.0 out of 5 stars A story for creating a better world

Sexism in tech companies makes a fantastic book for teens. This book is written as narrative YA fiction, and it’s a thorough primer on the challenges faced by women in technology, and women in business in general. Many aspects of workplace bias are brought to life in this story. It’s a springboard for preparing young readers for a world full of implicit and explicit biases of many kind, giving them the ability to name micro-aggressions and making them aware of common problems (like a man stating an idea that a woman spoke first---and him getting credit for it in the meeting). Most importantly, it also models things both men and women can do to help transcend sexist (and racist) blind spots and foster a workplace environment that’s supportive for all people.

3.0 out of 5 stars Enjoy!
Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2018
Forest writes from the heart, clearly communicating his values on many levels of Society. From that point of view, the story moves fairly quickly. On the other hand, the story is not as ‘tightly’ put together as you might expect from this type of fiction. Enjoy!
