I wish there were stats for Eastern-Europeans employed in the tech industry in Silicon Valley; I'm betting they're classified under "White" in demographic surveys. Many tend to be immigrants to the US themselves.
- pedalpete 17y agoI don't mean to be naive, but aren't Eastern-Europeans white? This is more about visual minorities than foreigners.
- genieyclo 17y agoAs a race, yes, but many tend to be immigrants that came to the US after the breakup of the USSR and come from different backgrounds than American-born whites, with mainly western-European backgrounds. They constitute a sizable bloc of their own that would be interesting to see the data from.
