Post Titled: Black people in Business suits
stolen from the NY TImes:
Upon seeing this image in the NY Times today, I realised that after over a year in Berlin I have seen exactly TWO black / ethnically african people in business suits here... in over a YEAR. This might be because of many different reasons: Part of which may have to do with the fact that blacks are a miniscule percent of the overall population here, OR that minorities don't make it into the university-track system, or... simple discrimination, which is entirely possible. Would be interesting to look into... more accurately, however, here is how many Turks make it into the university system and higher-paying jobs.
