Recommendation

Big tech and big business have, historically, left people of color out of the conversation while pushing them further to the margins of society. For members of these communities to survive and thrive in the future, they must gain an upper hand by joining the digital workforce. Journalist Sherrell Dorsey has spent her life studying and charting paths of upward mobility for Black and other minority individuals. Through her stories, she identifies ways to close racial and economic gaps, and argues for the importance of diversity in building the future.

Take-Aways

  • Disinvestment compromises equal workforce growth opportunities for non-white communities.
  • Internships provide upward economic mobility opportunities.
  • Certificate and training programs help students avoid college debt.
