Rebuttal: Make Room In the Bubble For Everyone
This weekend,TechCrunch ran a piece by Bindu Reddybemoaning the fact that when raising money as a CEO of a start-up, someone wanted to invest in her in part because she's a woman.Bindu stated: "However, they don't realize that by calling out someone's gender they make the system less meritocratic." She quickly went from this point to critiquing quotas, a non-sequitur that often confuses these conversations. Bindu's post and the accompanying comments illustrate that the topic of diversity these days ignites passion and therefore is often full of muddled thinking and overloaded with accusations.Sadly, the points in her post could have been written 30 years ago. So why do we have so much trouble agreeing on whether there's a problem and what are appropriate steps to take?Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/gy66bgwOcXk/
