I am located in Europe and maybe other factors apply. But here you could be a raccoon and if you have an affinity for tech, you can almost get the job you like. edit: On the contrary, I think these talk about discrimination drives people away, but I hold back my criticism because I think people mean well.

Its just a social signal and at this point people have been hearing/saying it for so long that most probably believe people should be judged by the color of their skin, rather than your personality.
