How is this such a difficult issue for some to deal with ? Anybody with a sense of fairness knows that if you can't have a White or Asian only group , why SHOULD a Black only group be condoned ? It's really just that simple . Due to the use of the word black , THEY have made it about race , would we really be having this discussion about the "Organization of Aerospace Professionals" if the word Black wasn't in there ?
And that is the $10,000,000 question. My next question is If that group truly does accept anyone in the aviation industry, why didn't they change the name to reflect that or, better still, not include the word "black" to begin with?
