You don't have to be the one convincing people, though. You could use your computer skills to, I dunno, build apps or improve apps that already exist that would help organizations and people do what needs to be done. I'm crap at convincing people, too, and given who I am (Jewish, coastal, urban/suburban, not-straight, daughter of a retired federal employee, etc.), I'm probably not the best person to work at convincing rural whites anyway because they probably feel like they can't relate to me (and, honestly, I'm having a really hard time even wanting to relate to them right now). But there are definitely behind-the-scenes things you and I could be doing if we look for them. We need all skill sets.
This isn't a complete thought, either, because I'm still having a really hard time processing everything, but I suspect there are probably lots of things we could do that don't require convincing others.
