Dr. Jasmine Harris and Dr. Pius Kamau explore multiple dimensions surrounding Black education in STEM, including cultural perceptions, systemic barriers, and the pivotal role of historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) in changing this narrative. Jasmine presents startling data from the National Science Foundation, indicating that in 2021, only 8% of STEM workers in the U.S. were Black or African American.
