Dayum, this makes me feel proud to be a black man. Need more like this one. Gives me hope that others (maybe myself) will one day be the first in something. So happy this is not another story about a rapper or a sport athlete, the only two things whites think young black males gravitate toward.

 

Exactly my sentiments as well. Nice to see accomplished, professional black men advancing into areas that break the stereotypes.

Nothing wrong with brothas doing their thing in sports or music, but nice to see branches established in other facets of society today.
