Why does the people of colour have way less presence in the community? (lemmy.eco.br)

I am asking this question based on a Reddit post that I saw. Why do black people (and non united-statesians) have less presence in the community? It feels super rare to see a person of colour getting mentioned, as I mostly see people of no colour. Is this some lack of vision that I have? Or is it really this way?

For representation on this space (lemmy) in particular, it's hard to know what percentage of ppl here are poc. You rarely know what race, nationality, etc, the person behind a comment or post you see is.

Maybe we should make an anonymous demographics poll or smth to help ppl feel less alone.
