| dc.description.abstract | After a considerable amount of discussion, I decided to touch on a topic mostly ignored in the engineering curriculum. That is the participation of Black people in the areas of engineering and technology. The issue of Black Lives Matter and the widespread protests in 2020 have forced us to examine the long-standing opportunities in technology denied to this community. In this paper I review a brief history of how we got to this point and the challenges inherent in the educational system. At the end I discuss some deeply ingrained and difficult-to-change issues and present some final thoughts on this very complex situation. - Davinder K. Anand. | |
