[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 5155229, member: 49065"] I saw an interview last year with an African American investment banker who owes his own Company. The interviewer asked him whether there should be more executive openings for his race on corporate boards, his answer was basically “No”, he rather see more Black businesses independent of the classic hierarchy of how American corporations are really run. Face it most of the positions reserved for minorities are in the HR departments or a redundant Vice President classification that no one really knows why they are there. The major issue with equality really has nothing to do with race or gender, it has to do with the power structures in place, these high end executives (white, black, male or female) really think they deserve their inflated salaries and perks. It is a delusional mindset on most all corporate boards, whether it will change .. probably not as long they keep the masses in their place.. fat and content... [/QUOTE]
