&quot;...you should have a similar objection to an Asian person. Not having that mentioned can&#x27;t help but seem racist against white people.&quot;<p>It&#x27;s not purely about representation, although that is important too. It&#x27;s about centuries of white dominance. A couple decades of people of Asian descent having a strong presence in an industry isn&#x27;t enough. How many of those overrepresented Asians are holding positions of senior leadership?<p>&quot;And, in the end, it is just always wrong to say &quot;this is not work for [race X]&quot;.&quot;<p>You&#x27;re missing the ending part of that statement, which is &quot;to lead&quot;. That makes it very different. No one said white people can&#x27;t be involved, as long as they are not taking up all the space.
