This is sadly a reality that is difficult to talk about.
I would even go further and say that we have a tendency to benefit the "least" minority of the minority.
Hiring a black or Hispanic or women from MIT is from my perspectives not really what this work should be about. Those outliers already have enough opportunity, but tend to be the one benefiting from most efforts. I would love to see deeper investment like 3 or 4 year before college in more at risk communities.
