While watching tv the other day I watched commercial after commercial showing comouter programmers and web developers being represented as black with many being women.
Having been out of the national research environment for about 14 years now, I wondered how much the stats had changed, because as I recall these positions were generally about 80% white and 15% asian with women being a small minority.
Found this 2022 study that seems to confirm things have not changed much with the exception of pretty good gains by women.
Of course, we all know that Madison Ave, like Hollywood always gives us a fantasy image of reality
