Why we care @BlackInPlantSci 'Why advocate for greater inclusion in STEM for underrepresented racially minoritized people? The answer is clear: diversity drives innovation. Companies boasting diverse teams are 35% more likely to outperform industry averages' check this article.
Despite recent efforts, the underrepresentation of the minoritized persists, and the experiences of those who do make it through the door reveal significant challenges. This post critiques current interventions and calls for systemic change.
