On top of that, we have many African-American's who are critical to our success and well paid account managers and faces of our company. I believe this is an isolated incident (if that at all) which is followed by copy-cat like tendancies...WWT is a GREAT company to work for across the board and the inter-racial relationships is a huge key to our success!

I am however curious to understand why black who has made it rely heavily on white boards to run their business? I Have tried so far to find an answer to this question. I have started to have an answer that I do not want to believe that much: Business is relations & numbers. You need to look how many businesses and the proportion of people running it could determine where contracts can go. If this is a reliable answer,then I believe that black owners are looking over to build a real structure that would help their own people to emerge as well.
