There are 8 black fortune 500 CEOs. Obviously the "policy" isn't working. But hey at least you feel good about it. For those of you who like math that is .016 or 1.6%
And why are there any at all?
Obviously the policy worked, because racists were prevented from knocking them below a glass ceiling.
I also think your selling minorities short here, it's low key kinda racist to insist the only reason they succeed was a diversity program. Honestly yuck.
Nope, that's how fascism tries to turn diversity on its head.
Without diversity programs, racist bosses were free to prevent minorities from rising to the levels they deserved. Those diversity programs enabled freedom to finally begin ringing.
I'd love for you to tell some minorities to their face "the only reason your successful is because of a government program and not through their own merit and hardwork." Please make a video and post.
I wonder if you'll ever say anything impressive.
Nope, that sure didn't make the cut.
You're giving an excellent demonstration for how there are good reasons why people like you don't measure up to standards when employers are forced by law to give minorities a fair chance.
I would never hire you.
Sure buddy if we just maintain this course everything will be cool about a million years after the sun explodes.
