diversity for the sake of diversity is not the solution. diversity should occur because of education and having the same chances as a young kid growing into an adult. due to recent history you can say that white just get more chances due to the environment they grow up/are brought up in. Diversity should naturally occur based on skill & chances, so start to educate parents, make sure they give their kids the best chance to succeed.
