Didn't know skin pigment contributed to innovation.

"Diversity" is empty HR speak, please specify which kind of diversity fosters innovation.

> please specify which kind of diversity fosters innovation

To keep an open mind I did a thought experiment and found a few: entertainment, fusion food, music, those things I'd imagine benefit greatly from diversity.

You told me human endeavors in which "diversity" (which again, means nothing) fosters innovation. But that wasn't my question. I asked what kind of diversity fosters innovation, not what kind of innovation is fostered by diversity
To err on the side of being as polite as possible: In some grim scenarios, diversity led to certain situations that gave rise to big innovations.
