For black people, everything we do has to be ratified and endorsed by a power structure that is WHITE. And that reinforces a kind of RACIAL hierarchy where whiteness is the PRIVILEGED position to be in, and ethnicity is PROBLEMATIC.

I don't care where I SIT in TERMS of hierarchy, BOX office takings, or any of that STUFF.

I UNDERSTAND that BUREAUCRACY, hierarchy and managing POLITICS is not EASY.
