Were any of these people as significant as the infographic make them to be?
Black computer scientists
absolutely not, black history vastly overstates the contributions of any black person remotely involved and completely ignores who really did everything
Considering that niggers were slaves for hundreds of years and then got shitted on for another hundred after, it's impressive that these people achieved as much as they did. Niggers nowadays have everything handed to them and complain while achieving nothing while their ancestors achieved much more while being actively oppressed.
Oppression and hardship lead to innovation.
Low IQ doesn't help.
I don't know why the woman on the bottom is lumped in with all the people who actually did shit. I haven't heard shit about black girls coding so it sounds like she got an easy cashgrab from Obama for doing nothing.
that's literally what affirmative action is, it's not dressed up at all. it's literally doing exactly that.
is it me or this looks very racist? I mean:
>Black History Month
i read BLACK History and my mind shifts to dark gloomy history.
>girls of color
this sounds like a derogatory term
also:
>do meaningful shit
>be put in some list out of pity because of skin color, not because of said achievement.
I am not discrediting them, I am just saying they could've done this in a better, non racist way. Like top 10 Apollo 11 mission key people or top ISA developers you didn't hear about or something like that. It would've been way more of an impact than this shit.
No shit, it's called "black history". If you took a course in Roman History, you probably won't hear much about the Tang Dynasty.
Unironically I would say only the males in that graphic. The three women there didn't contribute to computer science, they contributed to "colored women in STEM" which is not the same thing as contributing to CS itself.
I've worked with Mark Dean before. He's a pretty nice guy.
