Ahh, some things never change, do they? To recruit "people of color" into the industry, there must be intelligent, trained and experienced individuals to choose from. If there are not, all the Jesse Jacksons in the world won't change the situation.

Well maybe they’ll have an Ebonic’s app so they can communicate.

The purpose of affirmative action is to place people with IQs of 85 into positions for which they are completely unqualified.

Blacks comprise just 1-2% and Latinos 3-4% of the workforce
So what?

If they want more people of color, they will import them from India.

Rev. Jackson is really petitioning for “go away” money.

Looks like twitter is going to get a classic Jackson shakedown.

That is what happened to police and fire departments, they got put in front of the line, now look at the conditions we have there with all minorities

Now that the data is out there, some are demanding answers for why one of the worlds largest fields seems to have an issue with a compiling a diverse workforce. Jason Serafino looks pretty white, judging by images that I've found that may be of him.
I wonder just how diverse the workforce is at "Tech Times". Maybe they ought to replace him with a "minority" (whether or not that "minority" is qualified to do his job - not that Jason himself is qualified to do his own job, though).

Some politicians will do crap like this. As soon as they hear from the people that are being targeted that they are open to ‘talking money’...it goes away.
Jackson is probably just low on cash.

Sounds like Twitter didn’t pay enough tribute money to him.
Oh well, now they pay, BIG TIME.

I can’t get too worked up about this. If Jackson wants to shake down the liberal a-holes at Google, so be it.
