Her husband is black!!! </div></div>

i wonder if he constantly derided her for having natural hair &amp; suggested creme &amp; bleach to help her career;

i've heard that's what black men do to black woman </div></div>

That's not true. Michelle Obama's hair isn't relaxed. I'm sure Obama doesn't give her flack about her hair. She just exercises her options. That's the beauty of black hair. The versatility. Her hair is natural. My hair is natural as well. I wear it curly and blow dried straight like Michelle.

What difference does it make??? Black women are not their hair!! It's just hair. At the end of the day we should celebrate their accomplishments and not reduce them because of the way they choose to wear their hair. It's ignorant and its foolish </div></div>an so is Oprah's

bwahahahaha!!!!


truss mi michelle hair is relaxed...else as humidity lick it ie wuddan friz up

Re: The black woman weh gwine be Xerox CEO..

Last year this time I was working with a Fortune 500 company....been there for about 5 years. Anyway...my boss was a black man....my boss's boss was a black woman....this was typical throughout many of the departments at just my branch ...at other branches there was at least one minority at the top and most times it was a woman....

in the government office i work, i'm a manager and my boss is a black woman. someone who worked in our office would come away with a certain perspective of black women's success in the corporate world. but in fact, it would be a skewed perspective.

Me is currently on Wall Street and been there for 15 years in different capacities and what me see is:

--More black women than men in corporate period
--Most black women in corp are in admin (i.e. secretarial/admin asst.) non-managerial roles
--More black men than black women hold C-level or senior mgmt. roles
--More black women hold managerial jobs in insurance companies, and similar organizations (ex. Blue Cross/Blue Shield) than financial/investment banks
