D.E. Shaw is like that too.

Oh well, honestly, I do think white people are smarter ( while jewish is the smartest ).
So I am not surprised by white dominiation.

Racial discrimination. ...

agreed with you to 101%
jewish are very smart and cunning (usually wicked too)
a lot of my co-workers have jewish heritage.

even in this civilized society, we need to admit that racial discrimination (aka prejudice) does exist

Usually, racial discrimination doesn't affect daily social life that much.
You will feel it only when there is big political changes like Obama or some law enforcement.

I had never had been discriminated though.
Asian dominates ( next to white) here. LOL

Well, that I can't agree with you

I was traveling and was late to catch the flight (very late type) but I did managed to go to airport 60 mins before boarding
I was telling the ground support to help me with getting onto the plane
he said,"it's too late"
i replied,"according to the ticket, I have the right to board"
he said,"miss, it's too late, boarding was done, DO YOU UNDERSTAND ENGLISH!"

I flipped out right at that point
of coz I didn't realized that it was discrimination at the very beginning
after knowing that fact that i wasn't able to catch my flight
I made a very serious compliant (of coz) to his manager
who later on apologized and arranged everything for me the next day

i speak fairly fluent english with little accent
most co-workers think I am ABC (o, i forgot that I was in London)
later on my attorney friend wrote them a letter... i was really close to sue them

so discrimination is everywhere
live with it.

60 mins before boarding is not late.

Oh well, maybe it's the real world

I am still living outside the real world

what do you think about racial discrimination?

honestly my industry is dominated by white
but thanks to our "diversity" policy (which I believe I myself benefited from it too), we do try to includ ...

yup. school and the gov't does the same i think.

i think the diversity policy is actually a pretty good thing to do, imho.... it's a bit unhealthy if the entire industry is ran by the race, in terms of the social aspect (economic efficiency is another story)

and about racial discrimination... thats the one thing i love about canada
in one of my internship, just in my team, there was a 2nd generation portugese, a macedonian, a jamaican, only two or three canadian-canadian (and i mean like.. his ancestor's ancestor's ancestor was the one who moved to canada... ie. ur typical "white guy"), another 2nd gen chinese, then theres myslef..... even though it was so diversed, everyone was still pretty professional and got together pretty well

Brown guys?
Chinese has better hands (in skill) and more hardworking in general.

ouch.

but "do you understand english" is a figure of speech sometimes too.... without meaning to be discriminating.
however, the ground crew definitely said it at the wrong time at the wrong place to the wrong person without thinking twice
