A friend who is an backbone etc connectivity expert volunteered to come -- we figured out a lot about how to get the Internet to people... 10% of Native Americans are online, it's a crazy situation -- -- there is almost no economy --- but there are solutions that could change that -- most importantly great people we met who can make it happen.   So working  with them on these things... today we will try to influence the youth to get passinate about STEM/STEAM... 1000 of them will be there :)

Quick FYI that we are doing a cool thing on Thursday afternoon -- there are 850 Native American youth here for their Unity Conference this weekend and there is a WH event on Thursday for them.  As part of it, we are running a "Youth Makers Innovation Festival" for them 4-5:30pm on Thursday ... you should bring any of your girls who are around... it's at the renaissance hotel near the WH...   will be cool.    https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2015/04/24/white-house-host-tribal-youth-gathering
