While I am glad more students are enrolling in HBCUs. The idea that doors are closing for Black students at schools like MIT is not a net positive. MIT's network is insane and if you graduate it's one of the few schools that can plug you into a high paying job right right away. MIT only admits the elite and elite Blacks should have access to elite institutions should the grades allow that.
I wholeheartedly agree with your post breh.
That elite black boys and girls have their chances diminished of enrolling in top institutions is a real tragedy.
But just maybe, it's time to build a top institution HBCU. I mean, it would be a costly endeavor for sure, but it's time to ask whether the money/brains/strength/heart to do that exists in the current era or not.
Competition is the only option, the enemy already got their first hit on our children (barring them from super resourceful institutions).
Having studied in the US, it was inspiring to have learned that so many influential black people didn't attend these top universities and still achieved so much in their lifetimes.
But maybe more can be done. I will always mourn the victims of the tulsa race massacre, 'cause as far as I'm concerned, for ADOS, that was the legit best way to survive living in a foreign land.
