I know a Silicon Valley electronics company that was founded and is still run by an African American to the best of my knowledge. They’ve carved out a nice niche for themselves in a particular area of instrumentation technology.
I don’t want to give their name because I don’t have permission to do so and because they may not want attention drawn to the minor detail of the ethnicity of their senior management. I’ve personally dealt with the son of the founder and he’s a good guy; was very helpful to me on a project.
I don’t think anybody believes that blacks CAN’T do it.
But it’s another case of appearing too “white”, so they WON’T do it (by and large).

You have to have the permission from a black owned company to mention the company? Now that is a touchy outfit.
Get in the real world. If the company exists name it. I don’t think it is a secret within the tech industry that it is black owned. Tech doesn’t give a damn about color.
