Token diversity is a dam that lets through only a carefully measured trickle, often as a well-meaning gesture to make companies and the media think they are doing whatβs right. But this is not enough. Their numbers and statistics, their token black friend or gay couple are denying us the true richness of colour, beauty and love that diversity embodies. Only by tearing down the dam and allowing the river to run through can we create meaningful change.
\nThere are more possibilities than we can possibly imagine, and our bodies, hearts and minds are crying for the freedom granted by true, wild diversity. π If we can truly embrace it - in nature and in ourselves - the future can only be brighter.

\nAs an African American myself, I have often wondered how many minority individuals are out there are in the tech space and creating products, especially here on IndieHackers! I have learned so much from just being here with other creators, so I'm just wondering how many are even aware of this platform!
\nIf you're out there, introduce yourselves π
\nAnd those that aren't part of a minority, what are your thoughts on the low number of creators / founders? I am genuinely interested in your point of view too!
\nThanks!

\nSo the question is, what can I do to make this happen? I don't think there's a way to do this myself, is there? Can I, or perhaps we, create a group that will approach google and apple maps to see if they are willing to do this? I'm more than happy to start a non-profit in order to achieve this.
\nIs anyone with me? Let me know your thoughts!
