I think his point is that the problem is no longer as simple as a lack of diversity, and blanket calls for "more diversity" are not addressing the problem. The problem is a lack of women and black people and we need to stop framing it as "white men won't let in anyone but themselves."
- alistairSH 5y agoSure, but are any serious policy wonks actually saying tech is all white males? That, and the most famous faces (on the evening news) of tech ARE largely white males. Gates, Jobs, Musk, Zuckerberg, etc. So a casual observer might not realize there really are a lot of minorities at all levels of tech.
