摘要
The underrepresentation of Black men in computing, informatics, and engineering is at a critical state. Much research has been attributed to the increase in women's representation in Information Technology (IT), but little has explicitly focused on Black men. Additionally, the research with Black men in IT studies the population from a group level of analysis rather than an individual level. This conceptual and theoretical manuscript positions the author as an exemplar, a Black man and IT, and uses theoretical linkages of the Individual Differences Theory of Gender and IT. The result is a research plan to study the underrepresentation of Black men in IT, exploring individual and group level analysis, introducing qualitative artifacts, and showcasing successful Black men in IT.
