If the original article is claiming that white supremacy is the cause of the under-representation of blacks in STEM, it is reasonable to ask why white supremacy does not also lead to an under-representation of other minorities. |

The first paragraph links to textbooks from the 1870s, and conflates STEM and academia as the same thing.
It's one of those things where you know less after reading it than when you started.
My comment above is more coherent. STEM jobs generally require a college degree, so ensure underpresented groups finish high school and can afford to enroll in college.
Large companies in the US are required to report employee demographic information, so qualified applicants are very welcome there.
