Abstract
The tech industry is one of the fastest-growing industries of society today, but even with its benefits, it still has several issues regarding discrimination and diversity. More specifically, Black people have been underrepresented in the tech industry for decades and have had to face challenges such as unequal pay and limited progression opportunities. By exploring the history and present state of discrimination in the tech industry, as well as the experiences of Black people in the tech industry concerning race and tech, we can reveal the main problems the industry faces and attempt to fix them to create a more equal industry for all races.
