Title: Black Power Inc
Description: "Today's young black professionals have attained the sort of education, connections, and experience that those before them could only have imagined. They have more potential and more opportunities than any generation before them. As they rise in the ranks of the corporate elite, and enter circles of power previously closed to them, they are changing the way corporate America relates to Black America - and vice versa. In the context of the struggle for equal rights, how has this new generation changed the corporate world? And how has their success changed their views on race?"

"In Black Power Inc., Fortune magazine writer Cora Daniels sheds light on these questions and offers a brutally honest and personal look at the corporate world from the perspective of young Black executives around the country. She explores the contrast between the first generation of Black executives, who chose not to make an issue of race, and today's generation. Rather than deny their race in order to be seen as equal, the new Black business elite embrace race as a critical component of their professional identity. In lieu of downplaying race as an issue, they use their race to build a legacy for the next generation of Black leaders. They view their success, in part, as a result of their refusal to check their Blackness at the door."--Jacket.
