Where is the race equation in Joel's claim? I am a black and a great developer. Many years ago, I worked in one of the top five tech companies in North America.

Where is the race equation in Joel's claim? I am a black and a great developer. Many years ago, I worked in one of the top five tech companies in North America. My second line manger called me 'a Slave' because I was working harder than my team and contributing across team. I complained about the incident, and left the company after there were no action from the top management.
