Congratulations... I guess.

And yet the other women who happen to be white and have accomplished just as much are given a buy one get one free coupon at Hardees...

Was there a 2007 National Women of No Color Technology Awards?

[StormEye]

" 2007 National Women of Color Technology Awards"

What an ugly, racicst title.

[Jeff Head]

National Women of Color Technology Awards

Sorry, but this is absolutely rediculous...and, IMHO, un-American.

If these women, or any other, achieve technological innovation or excellence that benifits the nation, then by all means, honor them nationally...their skin color, race, haricolor, eye color, the size of their thighs, etc. ad nauseum not-with-standing.

By doing this, the foolish, mushy, liberal minds that came up with it are perpetuating the thought and myth that woman of color MUST be classed apart because they are somehow unable to compete when grouped with everyone else. They are not only disciminating against woman who are not "of color", they are discriminating against and demeaning the very people who get such awards.

Either their ideological blindness and emotion prevents them from seeing this...or, more likely, they are doing it with a will.

Twelve Northrop Grumman Employees Receive National Women of Color Technology Awards

My question is, why does Northrop Grumman employ so many women whose specialty is Color Technology?

2007 National Women of Color Technology Awards

One can only hope that women of color will someday be as capable as everyone else so the existance of a "special" award to recognize their achievement at an other level than that of their peers will be deemed both irrelevant and insulting.

One day - this will be looked at as racism...

Ah yes - The vaunted techno-twofers!

I have no gripes about women or minorities in the high-tech fields - provided they compete with white guys like me on the basis of their talent, and not on their gender/skin color.

If they are better than me - I’d best catch the heck up.

If they are not better, they should be doing the catch-up work.

Now if someone could please tell me what skin pigmentation level or genital configuration has to do with technological innovation?

“..National Women of Color Technology Awards..”

Is there such a thing as a National Colorless Women Technology Award?

[Kenton]

As a NASA retiree who had the privilege of working on our space program from the days of Werner Von Braun recently lamented, “I remember when we used to be the best and the brightest. Now all we are is the most colorful”.

[ricks_place]

Congratulate the Ladies accomplishments; there's no reason to be miserly; there are plenty of awards available. Recognize the “Women of Color” moniker as secondary for each individually but important in other ways. It is an Illustration that “Women of Color” (and anyone of ambition and ability regardless of race or sex) can and do succeed in the United States of America.

[Scotsman will be Free]

Does this mean that they aren’t competent enough to participate in the white folks category or does this mean that there is no white folks category?
