Newsflash, working on computers isn't a popular career choice among blacks in america. coding, graphic design, IT, etc... combine that with around 13% of the nation is black and you don't come out with many people in the related industries

[Mushfique]

I don’t see many black people pursuing the gaming industry usually it’s as a software engineer at big companies or start ups

[bgminion]

Maybe because majority of gameing companies are in the west or in asia where black people arent that much

[IYUB]

14% of the population that are in every single commercial, movie, and TV show. I'm assuming males dominate the game development scene, so you have 7% of which a very small percentage have an issue with representation in games and game development. What are we supposed to do about that?

[RandyMarshSP]

Programming doesn't have room for affirmative action, literally no place to hide your either good at it or you're fired

[GastlyusedHex]

I mean it’s a career choice, it’s not a racist agenda. Clearly this guy has never seen the fighting game community.

Damn that’s crazy, it’s 5% now though so we’re on the mend boys
