Racial Trends and Countertrends in American Organizational Behavior.
Smith, A. Wade
Journal of Social Issues, v43 n1 p90-94 1987
When American businesses hire, promote, and reward on the basis of race,they are not countering a trend, but behaving in accordance with the general norms of this society. To run counter to the trend they need only place Black managers in positions of power over the livelihood of other (White) employees. (PS)
