as jaline says, it'd depend entirely on where you're at.
i've encountered quite a number of asian designers, both oriental and ..er.. not, but only a few black designers. but then, i've led quite a sheltered little life.
would i be wrong if i said that design is quite a middle class pursuit? it would take a generation or so for kids to come through in to that sort of field, as I believe, is evidenced in Britain with Asians, where i think there is a fair representation.
whether this is utter bollocks or not, i don't know.
i can only think of maybe 5 or so black people on NT - but it's not the sort of thing people shout about, is it - race?
(well, i suppose i harp on about being ginger and son.. well, son's son :)
