Do you think that a Black man will ever become the CEO of a major corporation ?

Or at least on the Board of Directors? That glass ceiling really starts to hurt after you hit the top and your neck has been bent for a while. What do you think ?

Here is an article I found by doing a search on Google for "African American CEOs"
