Cough up some hard working, talented highly skilled black folk and I’m sure they will be hired.

Probably time for the gov’t to establish appropriate percentages that ALL companies must follow so that each and every business entity properly reflects American society.

White - 62.6%
Hispanic - 17.1%
Black or African American - 13.2%
American Indian and Alaska Native - 1.2%
Asian - 5.3%
Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander - 0.2%

Wonder how those Pacific Islander-types are at basketball...

They will be, and they have been...

Working with a black guy (I call him "The Kid") that is top-notch, and I turn to him often for assistance and reference. OTOH, interviewed a black male whose resume glowed, but under technical questioning he obviously updated said resume with job description buzzwords that he had no idea what they meant. He had the gall to mention the need for "diversity" and "racial makeup" in the company, as if that should give his unqualified backside a pass. The first person to shoot him down was "The Kid", which I appreciated...

If you can do the work, there is a job for you regardless of skin pigmentation and background, particularly in the high-tech arena...
