How about the non-hispanic, non-black minorities?

Or even more interesting to me, how about the distribution of education level and background?

we didn't look at this here because we fund a lot of asian and indian founders, and we just don't have enough of a sample to look at e.g. native american founders.

on things like education level, country of birth, age, etc we've previously looked at and discussed the data and it seems very diverse.

Data on citizenship would also be interesting. How many founders are foreigners and how many are US citizens?
for last batch, more than 40% of the founders were born outside the US.
Yeah, I find a lot of software organizations it's becoming more and more a disadvantage of being white. Not sure I can complain, it's worked out for me, but I worry about my kids.
All evidence points to the contrary. 34% of Facebook's employees are Asian, but only 19% of managers are.

What about someone who's mixed?
