Racism? In Silicon Valley?
Racism is power + prejudice, and POCs like Indians have no power in the US. What's going on here is unfortunate but nowhere near a real issue, and certainly not racism.

It's the definition used by specialists in the field. You wouldn't want to be anti-science by rejecting it, would you?
This is probably a reflection of the recent Cisco scumbaggery committed by two castist idiots that discriminated a fellow employee who was allegedly reporting to them. On the other hand, as an Indian myself, I've seen some really backward idiots spread all over America that try to reinforce the notion of caste and propagate that idea to others.
