That's because it's matching "African American Inventors".

I guess it's understandable how this became a rallying cry for racists but if you were to search for "US inventors" you'll find all the white faces you crave: https://www.google.com/search?q=us+inventors

The only racism here is in your head.

The NY Times is alleging "Bias at Google" and cherry picking examples that support that allegation while ignoring evidence that would refute that allegation.

I'm sure all of these examples, both positive and negative, have technical explanations. Further refutation of the claim that Google is biased.
