“the National Black Coalition of Federal Aviation Employees”
OMG, there is such a thing? When you have to have your own separate group based solely on color, maybe you are playing in the wrong sandbox.

Please don't tell you haven't heard of BIG (Blacks in Government), it's been around since at least the early 70s.

BIG (Blacks in Government)

I started seeing that organization when I had to spend a few years in DC. What a huge group of the most close minded racists I have ever seen. They will destroy a white persons career so they can move one of their own into that position. And they will ONLY recommend their own members for ANY position.

I hate to admit I had not heard of this, but I’m not surprised, really. I lived in Athens, GA for a while in the ‘80s. There was some kind of ginned-up racial stink going on. There came demands for a “Miss Black UGA” pageant. Oddly, a black woman won the “Miss UGA” pageant that year, so you have a black Miss UGA, and a Miss Black UGA. Yes, I am completely fed up with “black”.
