The popular thing is to be a content creator.

Ask people what they do, on the internet they don't even mention their job that pays their bills and if they do it's an afterthought.

And women have always went into higher education at higher rates than men.

Che on SNL Weekend Update said they need to bring in more white girls......... disgustingly .... hilarious ... as a 2x HBCU graduate I howled.

This is bad news. We need to get rid of YN syndrome and the abbreviation itself and promote Young Scholars and Young Tradesmen.

That’s crazy, This is an internal to Black folks issue I’m not sure why a white writer would bother to make a joke about it.

It wasn’t national news. Not even the Black Blogs covered it.

 

[cyndaquil]

apperantly yes.

I went to school based on the these kinds of speeches



We seem to be in a post race situation all the old Pro Black arguments is dead everyone is on the fukk trump wave now but six months ago the coli was full #Bothsides
The idea that you’re gonna get a good job without any higher education is untrue so if they ain’t going to PWI’s and they ain’t going to the military where are they going?

No where. Can we acknowledge a lot of young men are broke working dead end jobs?

Crazy. Can’t believe there’s even less brehs when I was there. I graduated 20 years ago and the girls way outnumbered us back then. I remember my political science class in particular. There was only me and four other brehs in that class and there was like 50 students

First day of class me and the other brehs sat in the back and looked at each other like

I didn’t really notice it when I was in school. Obviously I knew it was more women but it didn’t feel like there was way less than the women.

My 300 and 400 level classes were close to 50/50 but the prerequisite classes i took like political science and French were nothing but women
