I'm always amused when people post racist comments and then claim "I'm not racist". Just own your racism.

In my article, I specifically talk about Atlanta which is a "black city" as you term it. Atlanta is home to Georgia Tech which is one of the best engineering schools in the country. So it is strange to imply you wouldn't be able to find CS graduates there.

Secondly, companies have no problem opening engineering offices in China or India to chase after demographics so I find it strange that opening an engineering office in Atlanta is such an absurd idea that one must trot out the must played out racist tropes about black people.



Georgia Tech only enrolls ~7.5% black students so it wouldn't help their quotas. Also companies aren't opening offices in Asia to chase after a demographic, they do it to cut costs.
