I am an HBCU grad.
I have a love/hate relationship with HBCUs. Back in the days, they use to be the cutting edge of intellectual black thought. Nowadays, they are simply voting farms for the DNC that prioritize "Greek Society", White Acceptance, glamor & fake blackness over actually DEFEATING White Supremacy. Just a bunch of self-congratulatory NON-SENSE.
When Black folks who know how to actually WIN show up with valid critiques, feelings immediately get hurt. They see what real success looks like and what it DEMANDS, and they dont like how it tastes. That fake BOULE bubble gets busted & pride overrides doing what's right for the community.
There is a place for HBCUs in Black Empowerment, but it has to come behind developing a code of conduct and BUILDING a economy. Otherwise....ppl like Ed Reed will try to reach back and continue to find corrupt sewers like Bethune-Cookman.
