"Why DR. DRE gave 35 MILLION to "white" USC as opposed to an HBCU?-Dr. Boyce Watkins

[karim]

have you ever taken a look at who is an Alumni of SC? The Trojan Network is on some worldly shyt.... a bunch of astronauts,olympians,CEO's, and filmakers

Jerry Heller,George Lucas,The President of Egypt,even Neil Armstrong all went to USC.


you think they gave 70 Million on the pure coincidence than Iovines daughter went to SC?

so you just named an arab and three cacs. how does that validate your point?

The fukk. This nikka can do what he wants with his money. Why the fuk would he give it to a HBCU? Cause he too is black? This nikka aint from the south. All those HBCUs are basically glorified versions of California community colleges. If the argument was why not help out the community colleges here...then i would understand. Black militant nikkas need to sit the fuk down. Always wondering what other people are doing with THEIR shyt. He's looking out for his fam. That 35 million just secured his kin, and his kin of kin with one of the best educations in this world. Do you really think this nikka would rather have his kids going to Prarie View A&M over USC? Nawwww

The point is, they were giving money to an institution that's consistently produced prominent figures in law,business,film/media and technology.

yes, and the point of the question is, why give it to them when they are already successful and have shytloads of money, when there are others who could use the money better?

yes, it is his money and he can do with it what he wants. but, you get tax deductions for donations, because they are supposed to be a form of charity that takes care of those in need and balances out income inequality in society. wealthy people giving to institutions that cater to the elite are not doing that. they are making sure the status quo remains as it is and are supporting the structures from which they benefit. what dre and iovine are doing is an investment, to make sure that the industry they are working in is supplied with the talent it needs. it is not a donation, accordingly, it shouldn't be treated as one.

This thread is going to show who the crackkkas are and the house ******s are on this site. You think a jew wouldn't have donated that money to his community and causes?

 

[samtalksradio]

I love these threads all the white boys in c00n ass nikkas come out to expose there selfs anyway Dr. Dre is a c00n Suge told us that he could give that money(at least split that 70 mill up in give some to HBCU) to the HBCU but no the tranny loving nikka want to be white we all know this.

:weezy:

 

[BonafideDefacto]

Nawww...what this thread is exposing is why some of yall nikkas will be 'forever at the bottom worrying about what other peopke doing with their money' azz nikkas. There's a bigger picture to everything. Which is why poor nikkas will always be poor and why the rich find ways to be richer. You can either choose to use your assets and gifts for gain, or have too much pride and stand by idle judging othera while your getting past up. Family over everything

More white people bought Dr. Dre's music and headphones than black people. Dude has to sit down. USC is the biggest college in Southern California, that is his community regardless of it not being a "Black school". It also has a reputation as being the school for film. He's creating a new major where it can get the most impact and benefit his community, more than just blacks.

 

[Buckeye Fever]

Black ppl are the only race that make demands on what black ppl should do with their money.

Dre gets flack simply cuz he married a white woman, signed Eminem, and various pro-white moves.

Let Andre Young cook.

I him for donating any money PERIOD. There will be some black ppl getting degrees from that program.

 

[King Poetic]

somebody ask dr boyce watkins why he don't ask why john singleton gave USC over 5 million dollars and not black colleges?? get the FOH.. by the way john singleton went to usc

anyway the article says dr dre and jimmy lovine donated money to USC.. JIMMY LOVINE received and honorable degree from usc years ago, so he decided to give money back.

n1ggas like watkins always want to bring up sh!t and complain and don't give the facts and proof to shyt

If this was the 30's or 1954 or some shyt, I'd prolly be prone to agree...HBCUs certainly played an integral part in our history when paths and opportunities to higher education were more explicitly exclusionary....today I think they serve their purpose too and I don't want to belittle the tradition and legacy of those schools...but in the big scheme of things I think the community would be better served by increasing black enrollment in the best universities regardless of race...and USC isn't really a "white" university per se....the fact of the matter is that HBCUs are remnants of an era that birthed the Negro Leagues, institutions birthed out of necessity in a time of "separate but equal"...I have no problem with Dre giving the money to USC, with the caveat that a portion of it go towards establishing a top shelf scholarship/recruitment program for black students...to increase diversity and give underrepresented students from the same background as Dre access to that education...and if they develop a graduate program too, have a scholarship that targets undergrads from HBCUs as well

If you were to invest $70 million dollars into research for breakthrough technology, would you trust Caltech or a State school?

 

[SHAQAVELLI]

I'm surprised at the responses in here. I expected most people to continue to sh1t on Dre and aim unwarranted hate at USC, but that's not the case
