The Brownlow Group LLC

A seasoned technology sales executive and only African American in sales locally, James Rodney was his employers' top producer, once generating 73% of all sales revenue within his branch. During his first year he closed a $10 million sale; followed by $15 and $6 million in sales, rapidly growing his territory to nearly $40 million. Although the most experienced, James Rodney had the lowest base salary and in one particular year despite achieving 417% of quota ($15 million in sales) continued to not receive a raise. In contrast, all local Caucasian salespersons combined had sold less than $8 million cumulatively and received raises, including those who didn't make quota. The author eventually filed an employment discrimination complaint and in the process of researching other lawsuits to support his claims stumbled upon case after case of modern overt racial hostilities so sickening he felt compelled to unmask ways he believed American Corporations and our Federal Judiciary were facilitating racial harassment. Thus the inspiration for Corporate America & The N-Word. The author earned his Bachelors of Liberal Arts from American University in Washington DC where he also studied extensively in the School of Public Affairs' Department of Justice, Law & Society and the School of International Service. In 2006 the author was awarded an Advance Certificate in Employment Law from the Institute of Applied Management and Law. He is also a proud member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity.
