Google i/o had plenty of female speakers giving deep tech talks. That's awesome. Yest SpaceX host was an African American woman talking about rocket boosters. That's awesome.

The reason I say this is while I was growing up society told me unconsciously that only white males can truly male it in tech.

That's not true and you don't want to send that message unconsciously. It creates a cycle where people self select themselves into careers based on kind of people they see being celebrated as heroes.
