NYU Grads’ Google, Amazon Job Reveal Video Sparks Racist Backlash Online | Firstpost America | N18G

A celebratory video by NYU Tandon showcasing graduates announcing jobs at top tech firms like Google and Amazon has sparked a wave of online racism. Though intended to highlight student success, the video drew xenophobic backlash on social media, with users targeting students’ perceived South Asian or Chinese heritage. Critics linked the clip to broader debates over immigration and the H-1B visa program, despite no mention of the students’ nationalities. While some praised their achievements, the incident underscored growing anti-immigrant sentiment, raising concerns about whether merit can be celebrated without prejudice in an increasingly diverse tech industry. Watch the video to know more.
