    Name one black company that you know that people use in tech?

    There’s a BIG reason why White People are dominant in the industries INVENTED.

    If you don’t understand electrical engineering or physics. You aren’t in silicon valley. The biggest lie is computer science is how the valley works

    Lmao JavaScript Frameworks aren’t SILICON.

    i feel like this is also a reflection of the number of ppl graduating with degrees related to tech….. i took a programming class at a relatively diverse university and most of the ppl enrolled in the course were white and asian

    It’s not like there is this large pool of skilled black labor sitting on the sidelines. Did you notice FB has more Asians than whites? FB needs skilled labor.

    Coding is like sports. Everyone knows who the best players are because they look at the code… Not the skin color.

    Why the nfl and nba is full of blacks? Because they do better on this. It is not about color.

    Ever notice how “lack of diversity” always means little to no black people now? What are the high school graduation rates? How many african americans are going to school right now for engineering? The problem lies with you, not Facebook.
