Math is notoriously racist and sexist.
Maybe, Jesse, it's because THEY DROP OUT before graduating?
OR they major in BASKETBALL AND FOOTBALL if they do?..................
When is Je$$e Jack$on going to complain about the lack of diversity in the NFL and NBA?
Not enough white boys there. Thats racist.
perhaps the geniuses at “Level Playing Field Institute “ should get out a news release to inspire students to stop whining and “act white” ?
HP needs to do what Toyota did when Jesse Jackson brought his reparations-road-show to town.
Toyota sat Jackson down in a room, and laid out page after page of private investigator research about how he was shaking down companies for cash payments.
Without a word, Jesse left the room. Empty-handed.
I'd say that "diversity" is one of those dog whistles that Chris Matthews keeps hearing.
In tech industries, there are plenty of Asians (Asia-Pac and India), but that's the wrong kind of "diversity."
To Jackson, "diversity" only means Black, and grudgingly, Hispanic.

“Technology is supposed to be about inclusion, but sadly, patterns of exclusion remains the order of the day,” Jackson wrote in a letter released March 17 to Apple, Twitter, Facebook, Hewlett-Packard, Google and others.

I wonder whay Jesse doesn’t practice what he preaches? Why didn’t he direct his own son into the high-tech field?
Instead of becoming some low-life politician in prison?
Maybe if idiots like Kanye West weren’t considered the smartest black person on the planet. But really, the cause of all the problems in the black community is lack of fathers. I wonder what the percentage of tech workers know fathers.
What a stupid idiot. There is something called IQ. It is a valid measurement of intelligence. To work in IT you need high intelligence. That’s why so many people from India excel in IT.
Maybe HP could institute a new Telecommuting Program? They could call it the WFP or “Work from Prison”
I’m not for any form of affirmative action, but if the rest of us are stuck with it, the liberal IT sector should be too.
On the other hand, the real discrimination is in the funders of IT: the liberal VC world is openly sexist, with gender ratios far outside of women and women’s success in the industry more generally.
Jesse J to Silicon valley: “Show Me the Money!”
It’s not just effort, it’s talent too.
I have mixed feelings on this. The Silicon Valley liberals at Google etc. help elect politicians who support Jesse Jackass and his ilk. Maybe they should hire and pay incompetent friends and relatives of the democrat race baiters. The Silicon Valley executives should cut their salaries so they can pay for the “diversity.” The Silicon Valley liberals made their bed. Let them sleep in it.
Next Up:
Jesse protests snow being 100% white. Insists it should be dyed to match the racial makeup of individual Congressional Districts.
We always joked about how it was because it took brains to do IT work. Just sayin'...
I hope T.J. Rogers jumps in this little fray. Jackson tried this with Cypress Semiconductor 10 or 15 years ago and Rogers slapped Jesse down, in the press and on TV, and called him out for what he is, a shakedown artist.
Jesse, Jesse, Jesse,
Neither you, nor any of your sub-IQ minions, could qualify to clean the toilets at Apple.
However, Google may have room for you ...to help design one of their politically correct laughable daily logos.
Oh, I have the pleasure of knowing a number of African-American STEM workers...all of whom have the very well deserved term “Dr” preceeding their names.
