When Tariq spoke about the whole "one Negro at a time", it stuck with me. I've noticed that at my job. I've worked at my job for about 2 and a half years.
Their was a black dude who had put in his two week notice when I got hired. To keep a long story short, my managers haven't even interviewed another black person.
It hit me a couple months ago. Thing is, I know black folks have been applying. When this information sticks, you begin to notice a lot. Similar to when you drive a new car and begin to notice the other cars around that are the same.
