African Americans and women need better role models and tech companies can help with that.

Culturally, we all need to understand that we need to admire people who do these things. It will encourage us to seek partners (even in our own cohort) that are good at these things and have children which are even better. Obama gave fantastic advice to all African american men (to all men, really): marry someone smarter than you.

Everyone needs to follow that advice. We no longer have evolution looking out for us, and this is how we avoid idiocracy.
