To the types of people who use terms like “lily white” in a derogatory sense, the non-white US citizens who work in the defense sector don’t really count as non-white. I think the term is “multiracial whiteness”.

Silicon Valley is a globalization phenomenon. US defense R&D is not. Both of those things seem fine to me, it just limits the potential crossover.
