- The United States is becoming more and more diverse, but there is still a long way to go to diversify the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). Scientist Nicole Cabrera Salazar shares her perspective on diversity in STEM and the reasons we should be actively engage underrepresented groups in STEM disciplines.
Nicole E. Cabrera Salazar was born in Santiago, Chile and grew up in Miami, Florida. A first generation college student, she received her Bachelor's degree in Physics from Georgia Tech in 2009. Now an astronomy PhD student at Georgia State University, Nicole spends part of her time collaborating with the Institute of Planetology and Astrophysics of Grenoble (IPAG) in France. She is also a recipient of the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship and the Chateaubriand Fellowship, which allow her to continue her international research on exoplanets orbiting young Suns. Nicole will be speaking about the importance of making STEM more inclusive of women and minorities, not only from a social justice perspective but also as a boon to the U.S. economy.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

It's because Bill Nye
I showed this video to my students today and they were very engaged and faced a rude awakening about the systematic racism against minorities in STEM careers. I would love to have you come to my school as a guest speaker one day. Thanks so much for sharing your personal life story.
my guess is vicky you don't have a clue about STEM careers. There is zero systematic racism in STEM. None. Either provide evidence or have the common decency to admit you have no idea of what you're talking about.
I feel sorry for your students. Their "teacher" has failed them.
Asians dominate in the stem fields youve got no clue what youre talking about
I'd hate to be in your class.
It's a made up issue. Literally no one cares except the people who create and perpetuate these so called "issues". So what if you by default think of a scientist as a man or white? If you change the perspective to another bias, what difference does that make??
Asians literally dominate the fields of STEM - its a job occupation. Not life or death.
This is one of the best talks I have watched regarding Diversity :) Way to go!
Excellent talk!
We at NSTEM are dedicated to get minorities interested in STEM fields. Thanks for sharing your personal story in STEM.
who is this aimed towards? I went to NYC and NJ and so far, they pretty much cleared out the racial biases and now hold different standards of a scientist posterboy/girl.
Your experiences and her experiences were different. She is sharing a perspective. The fact that you did not experience or witness issues of discrimination does not mean racial biases do not exist.
Ezequiel Aleman obviously they exist. I want to know what group she is referring to. Who’s her audience?
@@bahaibrahim107 I'm going to guess many students, teachers and parents at this Georgia university where her audience. Was it really hard to guess the audience? I bet they are predominantly white and in the south too. Not NY or NJ. Have you never experienced racism or phobia of Muslims in the US? If you have not, lucky for you.
Merit, not diversity.
it depends on how many opportunities they give you to prove merit. it's hard if you live in Nigeria ...
@@andreagtzq childish insults like atleast make a valid argument to support your disagreement??
What this young lady is doing here is the answer. Period. Awareness. Share, share, share this video. America and every other developing country needs every talented STEM scientist they can get. I hope she gets a zillion views. It's that important.
only leftists who don't work in any STEM field---and never had---would say such a foolish thing. Apparently you never heard of Marie Curie. She won two nobel prizes. In two different STEM fields. Over 100 years ago. Real scientific talent has always been recognized.
@@pattiknuth4822 Scientific methodology would teach you that one example is not sufficient to demonstrate something as true... Which is what you are trying to do
i think i met her in LasVegas a couple years ago she had the stagename Dutchess from Georgia. Only spent a 20. Talk about socialization.
Diversity of race has no advantages, If we're all equal why does it matter what race is doing a certain job?
whites want everything for them
No they don’t. There’s lots of Asians in STEM. They are present in the field in a proportion much higher than the actual percentage of asians in the population. In other words, Asians are overrepresented in STEM. Nobody cares.
I'm asian, why are you grouping us all together? I can bring something to the table that no other asian can. Asian just seem to be more qualified for the job. Why else would a company hire them.
It's because they don't believe that the races are equal. They believe that whites and Asians are superior, and that isn't fair.
Asians are minorities in this country as well. We can only hope that the breakthrough of Asians in STEM fields will be the first of many victories on the behalf of underrepresented races in this country. I hope you will not continue to bash any group of minorities that prevail in a given field. It will only bring us a step further from equality.

This is Interesting - We are the Diversity in Tech Podcast and Tech Conference and are big champions of diversity in Tech.
well I like the talk but I'm a Chinese and me and my friends are not drawing no white man as scientist cause I haven't even seen a white male scientist until I got into college smh -.- I don't know where does she get that from tho
It's her perspective, Dave. The fact that you experienced life in a different way doesn't make her experience less relevant for other communities. Most of the hateful comments in this thread come from people who believe the speaker's ideas are false just because they did not go through the same experiences.
You're experiences don't mean as much as the larger whole. She said that majority, even chinese, thought of a white male.
@@11th_defender51 then at least there should be a statistical proof?
@@davehuang9748 I doubt she just made up a that study about it.
Science and technology depends on qualified people. When people are not qualified, they have no place in this field. Your study should not be whether they're "left out", it should be why they are not qualified.
for real
Couldn't agree more. All of these fields rely on diversity for progress.
I guess that's why nearly every Nobel Lauriate is male.
Call me sexist, but I don't agree with the points that this woman makes.
wdym? They were all based on studies.
You want to talk about racism? Why don't you mention that Asians are the smallest minority group in the US? Why don't you talk about the fact that to get equal consideration for entry into Princeton university Asians have to score 140 points higher than whites, 270 points higher than Latinos and 450 points higher than blacks on their SAT scores? Why don't you mention that there is a limitation on the number of Asians that Universities will accept even though they are more qualified than other minorities? Why don't you talk about how affirmative action doesn't apply to Asians? Why don't you talk about how some banking institutions and high tech companies are looking into the same restrictions when it comes to loans and hiring practices? Racism? You don't know what you're talking about. How do you think you got where you are?
Exactly bro, this institutionalised racism doesn't apply to Asians because we actually work hard and are successful, as compared to other races that beg for free stuff.
@@shounakkundu3053 So the implication here is that somehow asians always work harder? That's racism.
@@11th_defender51 Yes, due to culture difference. Go see how a asian parent force their student to get good grade before you talk.
@@tonyye8680 that's a culture thing, not a race thing. It doesn't apply to everyone, so assuming the asian guy is smarter is a bad move.
@@11th_defender51 Of course not every asian is hard working, but we are talking about average asian here. BTW that culture still belongs to the race, it's the other race's decision to learn from it.
She is pretty and smart!
She is a fucking sexist bigot.
@@77tubuck and you don't have a brain :D
@@MandarinaCorp and you don't have a STEM degree.
@@77tubuck Yes I do.
@@MandarinaCorp
No you don't.
