America is losing ground in the global STEM war (science, technology, engineering and math) because Black America’s creative genius is missing in action. The same innovative thinking that birthed jazz, the same creative thinking that developed more than 300 uses for the peanut, is what’s needed to solve the technological issues facing the world. Insider C.M. Williams offers advice and lessons learned from behind the lines of the corporate battlefield and offers tips on how Black America can help win and gain from the global STEM war. Armed with intel from Black STEM leaders, survivors, and casualties, Williams presents a battle plan to turn the tide and set the stage for America’s triumphant victory with what Williams’ dubs as America’s next Civil Rights Movement. What does Black America need to do to succeed in today’s 21st global technological society? How can Black America mobilize quickly to put these actions into place? What can White corporate America do to help? In this book, Williams reviews African and African American technology accomplishments throughout US and world history. The author details untapped resources available to propel the black community into a major technology force for the 21st century. A collaborative structure between parents, teachers, community leaders, corporations, and others to accelerate the participation of blacks in STEM and technology development is explored. Finally, the author outlines a bold yet achievable plan for creating the first African American Silicon Valley in the nation.
