San Francisco - Underrepresented minorities make up a very small
proportion of high technology workforces, especially in senior level,
according the results of a study released Monday (June 1). The study,
conducted by the Anita Borg Institute for Women and Technology, found
that 6.1 percent of technical men and 8.2 percent of technical women
in Silicon Valley high-tech companies are underrepresented
minorities. The underrepresented minority groups are defined as
African-American/Black, Latino/ Hispanic, and Native American/Native
Hawaiians.
The problem is particularly acute for women of color, which represent
less than 2 percent of high-level technical positions, the study
finds. . . .

Only because white skin is worshiped in India, and because most of the
scenes are now being shot in "phoren" locations with white extras.
