I belive that some reasons for less blacks being in CS was the amount of access they may have had to computers before college. I am a black male but was very fortuanate to have a middle class upbringing and began playing with computers when I was 6 years old. I always had access to computers and my high school offered typing and CS classes in high school. Now that computers are more easily acceptable via libraries and school computer labs perhaps this trend will change. I would bet that most CS majors in college had access to computers probably at home and were not living in poverty befor then entered college.
