I can find fault with UPS for many things but racial discrimination is not one of them.
My building is in a predominantly white area, but our Division Manager who oversees the entire facility is black. Other than one driver and one on-car sup, he is the only black face among over 500 employees there...and he runs the show.
There are also a large number of other minorities and women in positions of authority. And it has been my experience that they are indeed qualified for the jobs they hold, rather than merely being a token hired to fill a quota.
Its unfortunate that UPS is obsessed with quotas in other aspects of the business, but at least hiring and promotion doesnt seem to be one of them.
Probably a lot of white people discriminated against to put him in that job. Oh, sorry, I forgot. That's not considered discrimination. The question isn't whether they're qualified. It's whether they were THE MOST qualified.
