and that is the Black Americans, who have been here since the inception of this nation and through all its challenges.

We all know the CEO position have long be "Race Based in their hiring, of "White Men Predominantly", with some White Women, but they have raced based hiring that OVERLOOKS and underestimate the Black Male and Black Female when it comes to filling Jobs in the Executive CEO Suite.

To advocate and speak of Black People for roles in these business, is no more race based than white people have done for 100's of years, as they not only excluded, they would not even consider black men and women.... so why was that race based system ok, but its not ok, when it is advocated to give black people a proactive consideration and see him/ her as a value asset.
