Local News report this AM concerning the need to increase diversity in the airline industry.
among the Airline Pilot and “Front line” workers, where the racial breakdown currently is:

- 48.1% White
- 18.2% Hispanic
- 15.1% Black


The morning news segment includes an on campus visit showing recruitment aimed at HBU’s (Historical Black Univ), where it is emphasized that students need see Pilots who looks like them to encourage ... yada yada

It sure looks discriminatory doesn’t it. Blacks only one third of whites. Clear evidence of that systematic racism keeping its foot on the neck of aspiring blacks entering the industry.

Meanwhile, Google reports this population breakdown as of Dec 2020:

- White: 60.1% (Non-Hispanic)
- Hispanic: 18.5%
- Black: 12.2%

So it appears that Blacks in aviation are more or less fairly represented and if any ethnicity is under represented, it is the whites. Nevertheless, I know my place so should have done my best to maintain my sense of white guilt, and not question the spin intended by the local news report.
