It's also very disingenuous to use these four oversimplified categories. There are no end of people who appear white, but don't personally identify as such for a litany of perfectly reasonable factors. And how much meaning does "Asian" have, when it's expected to somehow include two billion-person countries with vastly different genetic and cultural backgrounds?
- isoskeles 8y agoThat does not take away from the point that the industry is not as overwhelmingly "white" as people try to portray it.
- pjscott 8y agoYou're right that it's a lousy set of categories, but I don't think it's disingenuous. Those categories roughly match the ones that large companies in the US have to track for their EEO-1 reports. I can't blame them for not doing more than is required of them for the sake of statistical accuracy.
