[BaggerofTea]

Start your own businesses!

fukk asking these CACs for a raise and promotion. Start your own shyt.

Especially if you can do a non customer facing biz like IT or something creative.

Three articles about "warnings" and "setting sights", but the OP is about a trend reversal that's already established. There is no amount of links that you can post that would point to the SC decision as a cause for this trend reversal because no researcher worth a fukk would try to base conclusions on such a small timeframe as 1 quarter since the change.

The shift the OP is referring to had to have started before the SC decision.

It wasn’t. The affirmative action case was the incentive corporations needed to start the layoffs and capping of minority talent

Now obviously everyone should expect the trend to be amplified in the coming year due to it. Regardless, until that data is fully realized you jumped the gun in crafting the narrative behind this

You just proved my point if you say it had no point. It’s been 6 months so now we can “expect” it.

Which is it?

Black folks were never promoted into upper management though. You gotta be a very dense black individual if you think they were placing us in upper management in the first place.


This is that talking point I bring up when it comes to Affirmative Action and Diversity hiring. These companies might hire 3 black people at most and none of em will be upper management. Maybe I'm looking into the wrong areas. Maybe if you in a very black area, but in a majority of white owned companies, upper management is white. The only black managers I know where at Walmart and we all know what shyt don't really count.

Nah I see it too. The lower level employees are always “diverse” but once you get to the higher ups, it’s a lot paler. I also see discrepancies in experience/education levels between whites and minorities that are in upper management. The black managers will have been there for 8-10 years before breaking into management/vp/whatever meanwhile the cacs have been there for 3 years.

OP is a true tether


He wants the civil rights gains that ADOS fought for but he is afraid to ruffle feathers and fight for them.


He criticizes most civil rights activism.

You just touched on a major point. I noticed this phenomenon in college. The white folks had a Ph.D. and Dr in their name and they were all early 30s (30-34). Meanwhile, the Black ones were either studying for their Ph.D. or got theirs later. The most obvious fact that I confirmed through my own research was, that the white ones had super successful parent/s and a solid foundation.

One of the white professors started off as a professor on a non-tenure (big-bad thing in academia). She's now a tenured professor and the founder and head of a pretty big club with the school. Her dad was a lawyer who founded a law firm and got over 500 million dollars in claims for his clients. How can the average Black person compete with that?

Even though we as Black people have made progress, we cannot afford to have one generation slack off or rescind.

The white professors who started from less than favorable backgrounds went to college and married well. I know one professor whose dad ridiculed her for going to college. I thought about her a few weeks ago and did a little search. Her home is now worth over a million and she bought it in like 2013 for 475k.

She also is moving on up in the world of academia, but she is thee most deserving of it.

I see it a lot at my place of business too. It's a lot of younger engineers that are black and latino, and (mostly) asian. I will say, because of the area that I live in, they're are a lot of blacks in upper management. But you're right about those white kids getting that management job after two-three years.

most current civil rights activism is led by rabble rousers with no plan of action or sustainable goals.

The civil rights era had structure and hierarchy.
