    Just by looking at this SBA loan and how they distribute the funding we will see how racist it is.

    Yeah, I haven't been able to get an IT job ever since I got my degree. The only time I did was a contract position and I don't think they knew I was black...They hired me over the phone...besides that no luck...plus I live in Texas and positions like that they want to keep everyone nonblack and if black they might be immigrant black...not American black like myself.

      I am black no degree and IT jobs claim to hiring managers that I am the only qualified candidate. Today, you must have certs and a great resume. I put out one resume and get interviews 90 percent of the time. Now I am the highest paid tech.

    First of all just because a person is running a company doesn’t mean anything especially when the black and to her to say that he was winning that’s stupid to say until the other guy that was asking him questions about we got a black president. What does that mean?

      Sports are the only fair arena for competition because it’s physiological. Racism manifests itself in the corporate sector because society has never distributed education, capital, or economic opportunity evenly. Horrible analogy.
