Racism Outside, Intel Inside

Meena Kandasamy writes on the racism in an Intel advertisement.

Look at the employer: Clean-shaven, suave, fair, upper class Indian male. Hands in his pockets to show off the power. Staring straight at the camera. Posing, in other words. Look at his central position. Look at his body language: as if he is not even aware of the presence of all those subordinates.

Then, look at the employees: All black. All servile (though I understand it is a sports position): knees, heads bent. All shiny muscle (black is brawn, white (even in its palest indian version) is brain).
