For black CEOs in Silicon Valley, humiliation is a part of doing business

It's always fascinating to me how the most liberal and progressive areas of our society are the ones who exhibit the most functional racism.

This is the manifestation of the bigotry of low expectations that is so engrained in Silicon Valley. When you live your life grouping people of a certain skin color into a protected class that you the hero white person need to save, you automatically assume that every person you see of that class is of diminished status.
