So, if I created 'whitedevhub.io' and wrote the following:
Together, we're changing the face of tech.
Support White and European-American talent in tech on the first-ever White-owned social job network built on blockchain technology.
I'd be flamed out of town for being racist.
Now, as a non-American, I don't have the same viewpoint as Americans do, but surely the answer to the worlds racist problems is more integration not more segregation ?
- klyrs 5y agoThe answer to "why is there such a diversity problem in tech" is always "it's a pipeline problem." But when folks try to directly address the pipeline problem, that's racism? What problem does your whites-only platform aim to solve?
- atonse 5y agoThe pipeline problem is a big one. What can we do to encourage more kids from (underrepresented in STEM) minorities to get into STEM careers?
- tracedddd 5y agoThe pipeline needs to be addressed way, way earlier (schools, community programs) than the point that we’re making black person only blockchains.
- klyrs 5y agoOkay, but that sounds like socialism. Got any ideas that will work in today's political environment?
