It's so disheartening to see the intolerant discourse playing out in the news these days — statements that our country would be a better place without the voices, ideas and the contributions of certain groups of people, based solely on where they come from, or their religion.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai has written an open letter in support of Muslims while slamming the 'intolerable discourse,'indirectly referring to blustery Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. Pichai brings a unique perspective since he himself is an immigrant who came from Madras, India 22 years ago and settled to study and work in the US.
Titled 'Let's not fear defeat our values,' the letter preaches tolerance and the advantages of different voices in running successful companies as well as nation building. Pichai is the latest recognized tech CEO who has weighed in on serious issues of equality. Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg also gave his support to Muslims and Apple's Tim Cook famously expressed his support for minorities and he even penned an essay on bloomberg advocating for equality.
