The analogy is spot on; the person who is second should not expect to get the same applause as the person who was brave enough to go first.

It seems like “he has to be an alum” is a decent part of why Morehouse had to bring him in on the first place.

i usually wait to see movies in the second or third week to get good seats and avoid having too many people in the movie theatre, but I might have to go see this in the first week for the culture.

Vince Staples’ BagBak and a remix of Gil Scott-Heron’s The Revolution Will Not Be Televised.

He’s not an alum? I just figured out what it means to ‘feel some kind of way.’

It’s not egocentric to call out nonsense. You responded to me, versus the article. So I responded to YOU. It has nothing to do with my comment appearing first. And, referring to ‘how much I post’ confirms you’re lurking/trolling right? LOL YOU’RE the funny one. Carry on—but be sure to put your posts where you intend…

Well there you go then. It was really hard to see stuff when T’challa was on the city street at night. Black cars, black outfit, and at night. Maybe I just need to eat more carrots or something.

It’s going to be amazing when Black Panther makes it big and Marvel learns they can make a movie not starring a white dude named Chris.

Man that looks fun. I hope it isn’t too dark. (Although that could just be my computer monitor. Poorly lit action movies are the worst)

I’m concerned that the only white people are smaller than the black folk and I feel that this is some sort of Black Lives Matter signal to start the uprisings and institute sharia law.

Yes, miserable troll-person. You’re the ONLY person who read—not heard that because that’s not what I wrote. And how miserable must you be to literally wait around for something to pretend-argue about less than 5 minutes after I posted it. Sucks to be you. Another transparent troll bites the dust. Buh bye now.

Having just watched Hidden Figures I have to wonder about the diversity in management positions.

Please go on...it’s a job that will never lead to real power or P&L responsibility. It’s also one they’ll push black women who actually have the chops to go into those others areas into. At my company they love to push black women engineers in this direction. Women with advanced engineering degrees...you know, the…

Yes, a good chunk of the people they get to count as Latino are definitely white. It’s a win win for the way tech likes to operate.

Actually the reason she’s had her job for this long is because she’s kept the numbers exactly where Apple wants to keep them.

Same. I know a few folk who work at their HQ and a satellite office. The pay IS high, relatively speaking, at traditional lower levels. And the vast majority of even those jobs are filled by whites and white-aligned as you mentioned. And almost all the first line supervisors and managers are also white. They are, like…

Well — and, in addition, you notice they’ve ghettoized her in HR as opposed to putting here anywhere near an income-producing or even asset-protecting center, like engineering or IP & business affairs.

She is if they don’t actually want it fixed.

2o years!?! She’s been doing this for 20 years!?! Then damn right she has failed! Miserably. That is shocking.

So, she’s failed at her job for 20 years? Maybe she’s not the person to “fix” Apple’s white power structure.
