If they'd bother to come to some of our meetings, they would see quite a few people of color there. True, they aren't all African Americans, but we're doing better in the diversity department. I imagine that in the WSJ's point of view, anybody who isn't an African American is white.

What's the pallor of the World Bank directors these days?
