The article never claimed Softbank leadership was white nor that Asian's are not people of color
- RcouF1uZ4gsC 6y ago> SoftBank Group Corp (9984.T) is launching a $100 million fund to invest in “companies led by founders and entrepreneurs of colour”, > Named the “Opportunity Growth Fund” and focused on African Americans and Latinos in the U.S. it is, SoftBank says, the largest fund of its kind. Kind of implied there.
- m-ee 6y agoI don't see a contradiction. The fund will be dedicated to companies founded by PoC, but with a specific focus African Americans and Latinos in the US because by most metrics those groups are more systemically disadvantaged than others (not exhaustively of course, native americans still probably face the biggest obstacles)
