Saying the Silicon Valley tech industry needs to do a better job of hiring native-born blacks, Latinos and some other minority groups, minority leaders picketed Google's Mountain View headquarters Thursday, asking the Internet giant and other large valley companies to disclose their workplace diversity data.

...

The protest drew about two dozen people to the Googleplex; minority leaders criticized Google, Apple and 20 other Silicon Valley tech companies that refused to share their work force diversity data with them.

...

A report in the Mercury News last year, based on work force data that Silicon Valley's largest companies had filed with the federal government, found that the Bay Area's unique diversity is not reflected in the region's tech workplaces.

Hispanics and blacks, the newspaper found, made up a smaller share of the valley's computer workers in 2008 than they did in 2000, even as their share grew across the nation.

In 1999, people were getting hired to sit inside data centers and stare at monitors all day. Many of those positions were obsolesced when people finally figured out how to use an SNMP trap.
