As a black Nigerian (it's another level) that spent time this year in the valley, I have a different perspective I hope to elaborate more on in future.
Empathy is going to be important in helping improve things and I believe successful minorities, in my case black (Nigerian) people have a better chance than a white person (without my circumstance) and should step up more.
With my cold emails, it was easier for me to meet white people in tech than black people in tech when I spent 4 months there.
There is a reason Indians no longer have this minority problem.
I hope to write more elaborately about it soon.
BTW, here is the main article. It's a great read http://www.fastcompany.com/3037933/the-visible-man http://www.fastcompany.com/3037933/the-visible-man
