What current issue impacts *only* black people that needs to be fixed *only* to our benefit?
HBCU’s are getting battered by Trump research cuts. Howard lost 11 million, NC A&T has lost 24 million and HBCU’s have lost 300 million since March.

Anything to keep living comfortably in squalor, friend.
…you and your family still live under a government controlled by them just like me
Thinking you’re doing something… by not doing something… is next level internet militant.
Nobody is saying he is JUST doing anything. They’re just pointing out his specific targeting of black people (see HBCUs) via his DEI initiatives.
Thread title states $140 million from HBCU's(plural).
This guy is taking away $510 million just from Brown.
A BILLION just from Cornell
Hes undoubtedly a racist that has a low opinion of Black people but He's not just hitting "Black" academia, that aint even his main focus
They’re obviously not his only target, but as a site (allegedly) full of black people, these hit closest to home.
I’m sure media is doing a much better job of covering these types of issues at Ivy League institutions
We are both living in the same country with the same government.
Trying to act like your community is not experiencing white supremacy because you didn’t vote is a dumb Ass take…
You haven’t removed yourself from a white supremacist government… but you’re talking to me like I’m somehow allowing myself to be subject to it… you are too
Internet militancy yall
So you’re fighting white supremacy by not voting?
That’s the work you’re doing to protect our community? What black programs are you helping?
Please don’t tell me your militancy is limited to just feeling content by not voting.

Idiotic response, pal. What is the actionable alternative?
I dont know why, but this clip for some reason made me think of the historical fiction movie "One Night in Miami" Where Malcolm met with Cassius Clay, Jim Brown, and Sam Cooke...and that part where Jim Brown(Aldis Hodge) "Now now Malcolm, you know I like white women too much for that.."
Thats not an action, compadre. Its doing nothing with extra steps. What do we tangibly do to push for what we want?

Question, are we currently in a position where Black people are more likely to withhold their vote and achieve success?

Universities of all kinds will have to slash administrative costs and focus funding on the main reason people are there: studying.
As long as students have equipment and instructors, the colleges will be fine. Trump's presidency is a reminder that the federal government when run by a white supremacist can be an enemy rather than a friend to black people. We can't ever assume that the federal government will be on our side especially when so many white people have the power to influence it.
These HBCUs will need to strengthen relationships with local municipal and state non profits and secure funding for outreach programs and scholarships for students but strictly maintain focus on the quality of the education people get. Universities in general are using a lot of bells and whistles(like stadiums and student lounges and fat pay packages) to attract wealthy families to the institutions. That kind of stuff doesn't make good students who will go on to become successful alumni who give back. What students remember is the friends they made and the support they got from the faculty. All that other stuff is just extra.
I hope this is a lesson for schools everywhere that they cant completely rely on the fed government anymore. They didn't in the early days, and they don't have to now. The money they would get from the government when a non racist is in charge should be allocated to an emergency fund for incase this kind of thing happens again.

You must have forgot it was you reprimanding me for voting.
I was just clowning you for internet militancy and not doing anything for the community. If you were actual active in the community I would have nothing to say.
Not voting because you militant about your shyt is ok.
Not doing anything other than not voting is just white supremacist enabling while patting yourself on the back.
You’re so worried about white suprancy that your only way of opposing it is not voting… you might as well just be white. You ain’t actively helping our side
What black programs are you actively supporting in your community? Bet you won’t answer.

You’re wasting time on the “go learn a trade” crowd.
