The two have also cooperated on a new biennial award with the NAACP to recognise leaders who are bringing about revolutionary change at the intersection of social justice and technology to advance civil and human rights. Each year, the winner will receive an unrestricted stipend of USD 100,000 to help them continue to make a difference in their field.
