Forgive us for asking, but why should appointing an 'African-American' female in a high position be such a big deal that a company like General Motors has to publish a press release stating the gender and origin of the person in the title? Are we supposed to be surprised or even worse, do we have to congratulate GM for having its "first African American Female Design Director of Design"?

GM Gets its First African American Female Director of Design - And?
Forgive us for asking, but why should appointing an 'African-American' female in a high position be such a big deal that a company like General Motors has to publish a press release stating the gender and origin of the person in the title?
