Keep these short reflections coming Doc! Black public intellectuals are derelict and needs to be hashed out.
As a parent of a daughter at Alabama State and a former student at the University of Pittsburgh during the formative years of Black Studies there (early 70’s) any critique of HBCU’S needs to begin from the student and community up. What started as an organic and symbiotic relationship has seemingly gone terribly astray to the detriment of all involved.
Why there hasn’t been beyond outrage at the gatekeeping and the financial aid shenanigans on these campuses is criminal….
Yeah, all of this is important to say.
