Prof. Hunter and Dr. Carr, oh how we APPRECIATE you!! There's not a Saturday when you're not working tirelessly to educate, elucidate and illuminate us as to happenings in our community! Many of us are not in these spheres where we'd necessarily hear/learn about these topics. But you two never fail to keep us in the loop! Blessings to you both!!🙏🏾💯
Thank you Professor Hunter and Dr. Carr for providing such a rich wealth of knowledge for us. I am a 72- year - old retired educator, ( 36 years with the NYC Dept of Ed. Teacher, Asst. Prin., then Principal) and had considered myself pretty knowledgeable about African American history yet, I sit with my pen and notebook while viewing your presentation and find myself constantly asking myself, ‘how did I not know that’? when Dr. Carr is just dropping knowledge. Genuinely valuable pearls of essential wisdom! I find my Amazon bill has increased astronomically because every time Dr. Carr holds up or references a book I feel I must have it to expand my knowledge. Just not enough hours in the day, ( sigh). And yes, I did join Knarrative quite a few months ago hoping that somehow all the books he mentioned would be listed. I think it was mentioned that there would be annotations. I think it’s taking awhile to annotate all of the classes, especially the more recent ones. I’ll be patient. 🥰 Keep teaching us because learning is lifelong and continuous! Always something new to add to our arsenal. Love you guys!
You are not alone...I'm grateful that I had so many credits stored up on my audible account. And I have purchased quite a few books that aren't available in anything but hardcover or paperback. It's beautiful the libraries we are building.
Loved this live in Knubia with our community first! ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾 This is a real governance structure conversation that has been happening for some time but not resolved. I graduated from an HBCU and thoroughly appreciated this conversation sadly not much has changed since I graduated almost 30 years ago. Thank you Dr. Carr and Professor Hunter! As an aside, like always I'm here for the 2nd viewing I always enjoy and the algorithm! We keep pushing forward!
I was always trying to find a way to be ‘educated’ by Dr Carr, this is the best thing that came out of Covid. A free education, without mandatory assignments THANKS Dr Carr! 😉
My white guidance counselor said I was not college material. Shout out with a serious side eye to Mrs. Cooper with your racist self. Three masters later. That’s why I would never speak any kind of lack over any of my students, clients or humans.
@@ellalynkhayeslcsw1914 I wonder if Karen’s guidance counselor was trying to convince her to be a CNA instead of an actual RN. CNAs don’t need to go to college, but a RN(Registered Nurse) does.
Sidebar: *Walked in the Wilder v Fury fight (family and friends house) this past Saturday rocking a Knubian Hoodie. Just saying… the fight was no longer the topic of discussion.😊 **#Knubia** **#Knarrative*
The conversation about colleges being hedge funds was so deep and I hope you do a full show on this as Black students are more likely to amass large debt to attend school. My homeschooled daughter got full scholarships to numerous PWIs but virtually nothing from both public and private HBCUs. We also need to be encouraging our children to attend community colleges first instead of entering universities without the money and skills necessary to be self-sustaining in college environments.
Thank you sharing wisdom and knowledge every Saturday! I'm a UNC-CH alum. I truly hate what happened to Nikole Hannah-Jones and how she was treated. A lot of people were excited she was joining the faculty. The outcome was not unexpected or a surprise given the current legislature and BOT in NC and UNC-CH respectively. I truly hope Hannah-Jones is trying to help the professors who are not tenured at Howard with the same vigor as those at UNC-CH who protested for her to receive the much deserved tenured position she worked hard for. The professors who are not tenured at Howard deserve tenure too.
It's been a busy week and I'm behind on "In Class" & "Office Hours". I've been watching the Blackburn Takeover since it started and knew sooner or later Dr Carr was going to speak on it. Exceptional breakdown of the role of HBCU's, black college protest and black college management and maintenence. Much needed approach to the problem that is generational (Hampton grad & legacy here). We have to hold our institutions to a higher standard as he stated. Our children deserve better. Knubia for Knubians ❤️💛💚🖤
Professor Hunter and Dr. Carr, May The Peace and The Blessings of The Creator Continue To Be Upon You 🙏. Thank you so much for helping me to Think Critically, Stay Focused and give pause to situations out of my hands. Them people... Respectfully, Russell Beverly
“The Education of Blacks Folks in the south, 1860-1935” by Mr. James D. Anderson I been readin this book trying to squeeze every word for water.. I love this book. More important then I can express... but a must read.... a key to understanding... 💪🏽✊🏾 y’all get on an get wit Knarritive an get this work 💪🏽✊🏾 ♻️🖤✊🏾📝📚🗂🗃
Again and again I wanna say thank you to Ms Karen and Dr Carr. Because these things that y'all got going on are changing lives and it damn sure changed mines. I never picked a book to overcome anything yet alone, being angry or sad. Y'all did that. Imma believer of Jesus Christ and I'm reporting to Him the miracles y'all are doing out here!!!!! Glory!!! Hallelujah!!!
I appreciate this conversation. Our HBCUs need to do right by our children. I did want to add, that I went two pwis for higher education (I started at one and transferred to another). There were issues at both with food and housing. The first one, the students protested the food that was being served, poor quality, nasty, no choices. We met with the dean and the company to demand better options/quality etc.. . The second school kicked all of the returning juniors and seniors off of campus, told them this a month before the semester was about to start. It was a point of contention for years with the student body. They then kicked almost half of the sophomores off the following year. The university finally resolved the issue for the most part but it was a huge issue. Parents calling and student protesting. I bring this up because we don't hear about the real systemic issues that some of these pwis have. They are not all rosy, especially the smaller schools operating on a smaller budget. We never hear about those because the social structure makes sure we never hear about it. I think the issue with HBCUs speaks to the issue of higher education. Dr. Carr is right this model is not sustainable. Companies like Chartwells are making millions and millions of dollars to so say feed our children at all these colleges. Same company feeding all the schools, but don't think they don't make sure food is better at some schools than others. HBCUs need to back away from modeling pwis. Because quiet as it is kept they ARE currently modeling them and that is the problem.
Dr Carr my daughter who is a Howard alum almost said exactly with you said . She said these students are different . They will not take things easy . They will use social media and demand immediate results no soft talk.
Great conversation. I hope there are more conversations on HBCUs. You can give of your time, talent, or treasure. Many of our institutions don't want the time and the talent offered. They focus on treasure and when received where does that go? What are the presidents and boards of trustees driving to campus? I totally understand why the students are protesting.
I am thankful to you for the integrity of knowing "Truth" and how to move in it and making an "IMPACT" for The Now into Genrations. Remembering my "ANCESTORS" Oh, yes. Thank U.
Much respect ✊🏽 as always to you Dr. Carr and Prof Hunter. Great class!!! So glad I’m in Knubia! Coming from Virginia State University, this hit home on so many levels and it took me to get experiential knowledge and this class to put it all together as to the question, “why”
Doc, you were the most enriching part of Howard when I was there. You remember how they treated many of us, "the locals"--Dr Carr. Remember me and you riding the 70 bus everyday when you lived in Philly and me on the other side of town?
Professor Hunter, I normally wait to comment on an episode once I have listened in completion, but today God did not have that protocol in store for me. I stopped dead in my tracks at 8:03 when you virtually alluded to HBCU’s being PWI’s in Black face to exact the impediments and atrocities on its students to literally “save face.” This sole lens of viewing these institutions has been on my mind since I learned the origins of Speakman, Morehouse and Howard back in ‘09. WHEW! Okay back to listening.
What a class! Thank you for such an exceptional presentation on HBCU’s governance and administrative issues. Governance is something that was always connected to nonprofits especially black-run organizations. It is a proverbial dilemma. However this class was such journey into a familiar apparatus. We could expand this conversation into philanthropy. Thank you!
WOW...Just heard Dr, Carr reference Bobby L. Lovett...who was a professor during my Upward Bound years at Eureka College from 1971-1973. He was such a profound voice to us Black students as we were coming of age. Thanks for sharing his works today...
Hi Dr Carr and Prof Hunter, I got to class this morning for this great class. Then, I came back to enjoy the symphonic presentation of this class by Dr Carr. Thank you and love you so much for the greatwork @KarenHunter and @AfricanaCarr!!👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾💥💥💥💥❤🖤💚
I remember my mother lived with Elizabeth Catlett the artist during the 1940’s when she was a student at Howard . Maybe the faculty should get together and offer the students in the most miserable living conditions the opportunity to live with them for a while until the situation is straightened out. Just a thought .
Omg .... Dr. Carr. I was just telling my son the same thing . We believe in the African American causes and support them as much as we are physically able to do . ALL THE WHILE ....... telling my son . I can go back to Ethiopia 🇪🇹 ... and never come back . AFRICA UNITE 🌍
This one reminded me of the take over at Virginia Union University. I believe I was a junior or senior at Maggie L. Walker High School at the time. Very unsettling, too , because I did see the students as family.
My daughter and I were just having this conversation about how the elite or most recognizable HBCU's are getting donations and the others are not; along with how they are not and have not been funded by the state or federal government. Which leads to poor upkeep and maintenance of our schools. My daughter attends Albany State University and she is always telling me that her WIFI is not working among other things.
In Albany and environs, my cell phone sometimes does not connect when I travel.However, lack of and poor connectivity is an issue in rural and non-metropolitan areas. Presently, becoming a problem in all America. When Delta and BAC have connectivity issues, all will/are.
Greetings Dr. Carr I just looked at the "Everything must fall documentary" POWERFUL. We are going to continued this conversation. Students stand strong, I remember some of the same issues back then.at A&T State Univ. Prof Hunter gives thanks for Knubia and your radio channel, Where we get the real conversations.
It's interesting to see this play out. When I was an undergrad knocking on the doors of HBCUs being a child of the west, in the mid 90s, no one answered. Either my parents made too much money on paper only because we were a one paycheck, one car family or I wasn't smart or destitute enough, meaning I wasn't a pregnant teen mother or suffered some type of sexual violence. I was smart and knew what I wanted just not clear of the direction to get there. I did not know of the terms governance and social structure at the time I just knew money and my family did not have any to offer me to go to school but I went and still paying.
Mine was the first class after the SDS/BAM (Students for a Democratic Society/Black Action Movement) student strike take-over at the U of Michigan. The same sh*t that happened then is still happening now.
“There’s no reason why you can’t take a detour… I know you’re gonna come back”-Professor Karen Hunter. They can’t cancel Dave Chappelle. He’s already said he is going to take a break anyway. It’s kinda like Dave Chappelle is saying, I quit!” And, the LGBTQ+ is saying, “You can’t quit because you’re cancelled!” I’m with Flame Monroe and Godwin! He said NWord, nword, nword all throughout the special and no one was offended. But once he said something to hurt their feeling (lgbtq+) they wanna cancel him. He (DC) was addressing the fact that in so many words, they were oppressed and have essentially become the oppressors or the way DC says it punch down on someone! He was addressing the fact there is racism w/in the lgbtq+ community, which the white lgbtq+ community doesn’t want to address🤷🏽♀️
I also love how you two fight for the issue of "jailbreaking" the education system. I am seeing how these k-12 school district refuse to learn and grow from what this pandemic taught us. The pandemic showed us the possibilities the educational system can transform incorporating virtual learnimg into the traditional model.
"(Scott Galloway) says they're basically hedge funds. These elite schools are now hedge funds with classes for the children of the investors with a few freakishly smart kids they let in to cover the fact that they basically hedge funds." "You will never level that playing field, but it's all so increasingly unsustainable that there is a reckoning coming." We cannot afford to give up on higher ed even in its imperfect state. How do we make it better when HBCUs are up against it and so are the students?
Aloha Prof Carr and Prof Hunter! ANOTHER AWESOME class! Ase I have been wondering though if charging a membership fee might be preventing a whole lot of black folks, who can't afford it, from being able to learn, grow, and share in the Knarrative/Knubia content?? I did hear you both mention in the intro of Knarrative that there were a few scholarships given out. Are they still being given? Prof Hunter I remember you saying that you didn't necessarily want Knubia to get too big (God may have other plans) however I do wish that as many black people as possible could have access to this knowledge. We sure do need it. I had a membership but had to put it on hold for a bit..I do however watch almost every Saturday! Dr. Carr you are AMAZING!!! Thank you both for your time and for sharing knowledge! Ase Ase Aseo Blessings!🙏
This is a humble opinion and not insensitive to those who struggle financially, at times I’m one of them. I appreciate the sacrifice you made to join. God knows that too. Many Black folk find money to do and get a lot of things that they don’t need, ie sneakers, hair, nails and other stuff. The fee to join Knubia/knarrative is fair and nominal. Please don’t suggest that it is too high. Did you see the LV bag that some misguided person will probably buy. I suggest sponsoring someone, or donating a scholarship for someone. We have to pay for and support this kind of excellence. I even find myself conscientiously evaluating where and on what I spend my money since being a part of the Saturday classes.
When I first heard Knarrative had a yearly subscription, I knew I was signing up. I was intentional about the very next invoice I had fulfilled after hearing the announcement. I knew how much each class cost in undergrad, I understand how much I have paid for online courses, and books from the bookstore over the last two decades. This price is beyond nominal. You are listening to two people, who individually command 5 figures for a single speaking engagement and you get them BOTH once a week, plus cameos in Knubia. They are going more in depth in a day than some syllabi, professors or courses go in a semester, maybe even a year. As listeners, as citizens, as students we have to be “the bricks” that build what we know is needed. Same way we pay tuition at a private or post secondary public institution. I am telling you, sow into this. What you learned today paid for it in spades. Just an expanded perspective on “to charge” or “not to charge.” Those that really want it will make it a priority and understand “why” it is critical to our mental, psychological and emotional annexation from the social structure.
@@MooreVoicesMedia Aloha and greetings! I agree with most of what you're saying here. However "nominal" is a relative term. I personally have every intention to continue sowing into this awesome platform in the very near future when my finances permits, but I don't think it's fair to paint everyone with such a broad brush. You shouldn't apply the spending habits of some to ALL blackfolks! We are still in the middle of a pandemic and even before that many black folks , responsible black folks, were struggling financially! As for what's being offered, no argument here. I totally agree with you regarding the quality of Knarritive/Knubia and I deeply appreciate the work that Prof Hunter, Dr Carr, and the entire team have accomplished in a relatively short period of time. And while some would say that all people have to do is to "pull themselves up by their bootstraps", please be mindful that some DO NOT have boots. May God continue to bless you and your family!!! 🙏 Ase Ase Aseo
@@ellalynkhayeslcsw1914 Aloha and greetings. Thank you for open dialogue... I do feel that it's kinda contradictory to say that you're sensitive to those who are struggling financially and then suggest what folks should be able to afford... "Nominal" is relative. Please don't paint everyone with a broad brush...May God continue to bless you and your family!!! Ase Ase Aseo
@@sage4life691 Thank you for your thoughtful response. I don’t pretend to know or understand everyone’s circumstance. My humble apology is offered to you and others who may have been offended. I stand by my comment. There is no broad brush of judgment here. Peace
I'm staying plugged to Prof Hunter and Dr. Carr. They are hosting the discussion that should've begun 55 years ago immediately following the passage of civil rights and voting legislation. Better late than never? I sure as hell hope so.
@@danieldhardman5388 talk…yo…. Man, Listen…as SOON as this civil rights bill passed, In Class with Carr needed to drop. Can you imagine what the last 40 years of the 20th century would look like if it did?
@@MooreVoicesMedia I hear you but Hatold Cruse wrote his book back in 1967 in which he advocated much of the same things Dr. Carr advocates now. Granted many of his ideas were couched in different terms but that was 54 years ago and look where we are. So we need to take these teachings and run with them, spread them around so that we saturate our communities with them, even in churches, and then see what happens.
You all have made my night. There are predominantly White educational institutions that "peddle " Black cultural expression and everything you have described to your viewers is a pervasive toxic sickness that destroys brilliant black minds selling dreams and in the process breaking our "best and brightest." I speak as a veteran professor who sat at the feet of many of the incredible Black men and women you have mentioned. You reminded me of the late Malkia Lucille Roberts one of the original founders of Afrocobra and a former member of the Howard faculty who visited my predominately White institution when I was a freshman and changed my life.

Yes! Gotta have it!
What I missed! LOL! Watching now, From Newark NJ! Hello Everybody!

I remember my mother lived with Elizabeth Catlett the artist during the 1940’s when she was a student at Howard . Maybe the faculty should get together and offer the students in the most miserable living conditions the opportunity to live with them for a while until the situation is straightened out. Just a thought .
Omg .... Dr. Carr. I was just telling my son the same thing . We believe in the African American causes and support them as much as we are physically able to do . ALL THE WHILE ....... telling my son . I can go back to Ethiopia 🇪🇹 ... and never come back . AFRICA UNITE 🌍
In this video I feel drawn into the inner sanctuary of the Black Educational Temple. This here is a living documentary.
Shout out to Dr Carr for a Shaw University shout out. I'm an author from Shaw University too! Yay!
This one reminded me of the take over at Virginia Union University. I believe I was a junior or senior at Maggie L. Walker High School at the time. Very unsettling, too , because I did see the students as family.

My wheels are already OFF FOR YOU🖤💪🏿💯PROFESSOR , I DON'T NEED THEM TOO FOREVER RIDE WITH YA🖤✊🏿💯💪🏿🙏🏿.
SISTER🖤💯
My daughter and I were just having this conversation about how the elite or most recognizable HBCU's are getting donations and the others are not; along with how they are not and have not been funded by the state or federal government. Which leads to poor upkeep and maintenance of our schools. My daughter attends Albany State University and she is always telling me that her WIFI is not working among other things.
In Albany and environs, my cell phone sometimes does not connect when I travel.However, lack of and poor connectivity is an issue in rural and non-metropolitan areas. Presently, becoming a problem in all America. When Delta and BAC have connectivity issues, all will/are.
Remembering Horace Tate: I worked for him at the Georgia Teachers and Education Association during the 1960's.
Greetings Dr. Carr I just looked at the "Everything must fall documentary" POWERFUL. We are going to continued this conversation. Students stand strong, I remember some of the same issues back then.at A&T State Univ. Prof Hunter gives thanks for Knubia and your radio channel, Where we get the real conversations.
God bless. Thank you 🙏
Good morning everyone from Alameda , CA Thanks ,Professor Karen Hunter and Dr Greg Carr 😀
It's interesting to see this play out. When I was an undergrad knocking on the doors of HBCUs being a child of the west, in the mid 90s, no one answered. Either my parents made too much money on paper only because we were a one paycheck, one car family or I wasn't smart or destitute enough, meaning I wasn't a pregnant teen mother or suffered some type of sexual violence. I was smart and knew what I wanted just not clear of the direction to get there. I did not know of the terms governance and social structure at the time I just knew money and my family did not have any to offer me to go to school but I went and still paying.
Mine was the first class after the SDS/BAM (Students for a Democratic Society/Black Action Movement) student strike take-over at the U of Michigan. The same sh*t that happened then is still happening now.
Dr Carr you are so on point with this higher education. Hedge funds. OMG
Yall are the goats! Thank you for covering this! #NoBisonLeftBehind #BlackburnTakeover #HUSDGradStudent
Blessed to be a student ❤️🙌🏽
I have the book, Too Much Schooling, Too Little Education!” I took a course at Temple “Afrocentricity”
This is an awesome discussion!
Peace and blessings 🖤🖤🖤🌟🌟🌟
Good morning from Sanfrancisco
“There’s no reason why you can’t take a detour… I know you’re gonna come back”-Professor Karen Hunter. They can’t cancel Dave Chappelle. He’s already said he is going to take a break anyway. It’s kinda like Dave Chappelle is saying, I quit!” And, the LGBTQ+ is saying, “You can’t quit because you’re cancelled!” I’m with Flame Monroe and Godwin! He said NWord, nword, nword all throughout the special and no one was offended. But once he said something to hurt their feeling (lgbtq+) they wanna cancel him. He (DC) was addressing the fact that in so many words, they were oppressed and have essentially become the oppressors or the way DC says it punch down on someone! He was addressing the fact there is racism w/in the lgbtq+ community, which the white lgbtq+ community doesn’t want to address🤷🏽♀️
BINGO!
I also love how you two fight for the issue of "jailbreaking" the education system. I am seeing how these k-12 school district refuse to learn and grow from what this pandemic taught us. The pandemic showed us the possibilities the educational system can transform incorporating virtual learnimg into the traditional model.
"(Scott Galloway) says they're basically hedge funds. These elite schools are now hedge funds with classes for the children of the investors with a few freakishly smart kids they let in to cover the fact that they basically hedge funds." "You will never level that playing field, but it's all so increasingly unsustainable that there is a reckoning coming." We cannot afford to give up on higher ed even in its imperfect state. How do we make it better when HBCUs are up against it and so are the students?
Grand Rising to one and all.
We've got to have the capacity to Celebrate "AND" Criticize in the same sentence 💪🏿

Grand rising Family.
Dr. Carr talkin bout BARS, SHOOOOOTTTTTT, him & Prof. Hunter STAY spittin ERY week.
"RAPS of INFO." ya DIGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU KAREN!…..you preached🙌🏾
Aloha Prof Carr and Prof Hunter! ANOTHER AWESOME class! Ase
I have been wondering though if charging a membership fee might be preventing a whole lot of black folks, who can't afford it, from being able to learn, grow, and share in the Knarrative/Knubia content??
I did hear you both mention in the intro of Knarrative that there were a few scholarships given out. Are they still being given?
Prof Hunter I remember you saying that you didn't necessarily want Knubia to get too big (God may have other plans) however I do wish that as many black people as possible could have access to this knowledge. We sure do need it.
I had a membership but had to put it on hold for a bit..I do however watch almost every Saturday! Dr. Carr you are AMAZING!!!
Thank you both for your time and for sharing knowledge! Ase Ase Aseo
Blessings!🙏
This is a humble opinion and not insensitive to those who struggle financially, at times I’m one of them. I appreciate the sacrifice you made to join. God knows that too. Many Black folk find money to do and get a lot of things that they don’t need, ie sneakers, hair, nails and other stuff. The fee to join Knubia/knarrative is fair and nominal.
Please don’t suggest that it is too high. Did you see the LV bag that some misguided person will probably buy. I suggest sponsoring someone, or donating a scholarship for someone. We have to pay for and support this kind of excellence. I even find myself conscientiously evaluating where and on what I spend my money since being a part of the Saturday classes.
When I first heard Knarrative had a yearly subscription, I knew I was signing up.
I was intentional about the very next invoice I had fulfilled after hearing the announcement.
I knew how much each class cost in undergrad, I understand how much I have paid for online courses, and books from the bookstore over the last two decades.
This price is beyond nominal.
You are listening to two people, who individually command 5 figures for a single speaking engagement and you get them BOTH once a week, plus cameos in Knubia.
They are going more in depth in a day than some syllabi, professors or courses go in a semester, maybe even a year.
As listeners, as citizens, as students we have to be “the bricks” that build what we know is needed. Same way we pay tuition at a private or post secondary public institution.
I am telling you, sow into this.
What you learned today paid for it in spades.
Just an expanded perspective on “to charge” or “not to charge.”
Those that really want it will make it a priority and understand “why” it is critical to our mental, psychological and emotional annexation from the social structure.
@@MooreVoicesMedia Aloha and greetings! I agree with most of what you're saying here. However "nominal" is a relative term.
I personally have every intention to continue sowing into this awesome platform in the very near future when my finances permits, but I don't think it's fair to paint everyone with such a broad brush. You shouldn't apply the spending habits of some to ALL blackfolks! We are still in the middle of a pandemic and even before that many black folks , responsible black folks, were struggling financially! As for what's being offered, no argument here. I totally agree with you regarding the quality of Knarritive/Knubia and I deeply appreciate the work that Prof Hunter, Dr Carr, and the entire team have accomplished in a relatively short period of time. And while some would say that all people have to do is to "pull themselves up by their bootstraps", please be mindful that some DO NOT have boots. May God continue to bless you and your family!!! 🙏 Ase Ase Aseo
@@ellalynkhayeslcsw1914 Aloha and greetings. Thank you for open dialogue... I do feel that it's kinda contradictory to say that you're sensitive to those who are struggling financially and then suggest what folks should be able to afford... "Nominal" is relative. Please don't paint everyone with a broad brush...May God continue to bless you and your family!!! Ase Ase Aseo
@@sage4life691 Thank you for your thoughtful response. I don’t pretend to know or understand everyone’s circumstance. My humble apology is offered to you and others who may have been offended. I stand by my comment. There is no broad brush of judgment here. Peace
"come to Death Row" lmao love this program
"The education of Black people cannot be an imitation of white schools." DuBois wrote that in the 60s but that's all we have today.
Tell it all…all of it.
I'm staying plugged to Prof Hunter and Dr. Carr. They are hosting the discussion that should've begun 55 years ago immediately following the passage of civil rights and voting legislation. Better late than never? I sure as hell hope so.
@@danieldhardman5388 talk…yo….
Man, Listen…as SOON as this civil rights bill passed, In Class with Carr needed to drop.
Can you imagine what the last 40 years of the 20th century would look like if it did?
@@MooreVoicesMedia I hear you but Hatold Cruse wrote his book back in 1967 in which he advocated much of the same things Dr. Carr advocates now. Granted many of his ideas were couched in different terms but that was 54 years ago and look where we are. So we need to take these teachings and run with them, spread them around so that we saturate our communities with them, even in churches, and then see what happens.
Good Mornin family
You all have made my night. There are predominantly White educational institutions that "peddle " Black cultural expression and everything you have described to your viewers is a pervasive toxic sickness that destroys brilliant black minds selling dreams and in the process breaking our "best and brightest." I speak as a veteran professor who sat at the feet of many of the incredible Black men and women you have mentioned. You reminded me of the late Malkia Lucille Roberts one of the original founders of Afrocobra and a former member of the Howard faculty who visited my predominately White institution when I was a freshman and changed my life.
Shout out to the Hale Center 💪🏾
