Rep. Joyce Beatty to Zuckerberg: You Have Ruined the Lives of Many African-Americans

‘This is appalling and disgusting to me’
By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT:

BEATTY: "How could you not know when you have employed the most historical, the largest civil rights firm to deal with issues that are major? And this is what is so frustrating to me. It is almost like you think that this is a joke. When you have ruined the lives of many people, discriminated against them. Do you know what percentage of African-Americans are on Facebook in comparison to majority folks? Do you know what the percentages are?"
ZUCKERBERG: "People using the Facebook service?"
BEATTY: "Yes. Do you know what the percentages are for African-Americans?"
ZUCKERBERG: "I don't because we don’t collect the races of people."
