Overview

He writes about the challenges faced to become a computer scientist, about denials/promotions in a world that did everything to keep people of color from participating intellectually. Intertwined within were personal relationships, especially with the opposite sex, which were impediments to his growth. "Glass Ceiling" and the "Illusions of Inclusion" are degradations he encountered along the way in the racist world in which he strived. He also tells about the "good jobs," as people of color referred to them then.
