I get the gist of your meaning, but many, if not most of the startups valued highest are started by a fairly homogeneous set. I think it has as much to do with social and business connections as it does with racism, which is to say it has an effect which is difficult to measure individually, but which is possible to quantify and aggregate.
So to answer your question in the manner in which it was posed:
Most or nearly all of the Zuckerbergs are non-Black?
- concordDance 6y ago> most of the startups valued highest are started by a fairly homogeneous set. Isn't it well studied that homogenous environments are more trusting? It may be that homogenity (and thus stronger interpersonal bonds) helps in that initial startup phase where everyone knows eachother.
- stormbeard 6y agoYou’re making a wild guess with no citation to any studies, but I’ll just go with it. I’d hazard a guess that the homogeneity you’re trying to reference is not limited to _racial_ or _gender_ homogeneity.
