Stating top-tier black athletes go to HBCUs is OK; however, take 'actions' to include athletes parents, NFL and NBA team owners/commissioners, and media. Otherwise you're talking to the hand; team owners need to change drafting procedures and media equalize HBCUs exposure.
No. Chance.
Self segregation. Started and promoted by a Black athlete but if it takes effect will be the fault of Whites when the schools are separate and not equal. But sure ...promote this idea. The identity politic DNC overlords will love you for it.
A free college education is nothing. Tell that to all the graduates who are still paying off student loans. These athletes are lucky that someone is giving an education for free for something that will not benefit society long term.
Umm she went to Michigan State, right?
I also support segregation
Great idea LOL Racist
My father’s “HBCU” alma mater is now 85% white! After his last reunion, when 92, he said he felt like James Meredith integrating the University of Mississippi! So to us vestiges Jamelle Hill’s idea is powerfully evocative. Still, that gene ain’t going back into that bottle!
She says after she went to Michigan State
I don't like that question.....
Yes until they start paying these athletes, coaches making millions off black players and the players get nothing why is no one outraged at this blatant explanation?
can you get any more racist...
This catches on, it'll lead to the athletes finally getting paid. Football factories start losing talent, there's only 1 way to get it back.
The amount of outright, smug and unapologetic racism in the responses to this tweet is astonishing and disheartening.
Self segregation lol
they should go wherever farrakhan and michelle obama say
Why in the world do HBCUs even exist? Why would anyone support racism in this manner? Why do my federal tax dollars support so many of the crumbling and failing institutions? If I started calling Duke an historically white university I’d be a racist. Why the double standard?
This will go down in history as stupid and racist.
But bus the young children. OKAAAAYYYYY
