Pandering to marxist BLM. Most tech companies in Silicon Valley are predominantly South Indian, along with Americans are many ethnicity. It’s a marxist-CCP push, disguised as black American. It’s power grab.

It’s almost as if they just don’t want Black people in particular to have a seat at the table. Meritocracy is BS. Playing the model minority card is also BS.
If some of these Black companies where pitched by non-Black people they would get funded. Period.

You Think liberals hate black people? Lmao. Unbased theory. How many White working class people do they found?
Truth is Black People haven’t founded any good or successful technology companies. Silicon valley obviously produces White greatness to the Fairchild semiconductor people to Apple to Facebook. Maybe White People are biased
But racist? Like the kkk
