    This was a great discussion. I am really enjoying The Black Table. It is very informative, without all the fussing and interruption.

    Great program. Deion was taken for granted at JSU. The lawnmower and the radio. Invisible labor and crime. Aside from him bringing his own lawnmower and mowing the field himself, he had to deal with theft. Within his first month, he spoke about his radio and other items being stolen. His sons had their cars broken into. Lastly there were the shooting on JSU campus, and the murder in the Fall of 2022. Not to mention the treats he received during the week of the ASU game. I am happy he is a better place with a national platform. We have to stop taking each other for granted.

      @@DefenderOfLogic even if he knew, he has to draw the line somewhere. We should all take care of our own interest. He left JSU in a better condition than it was before he arrived.

    On a serious note, why can't the black community come together to help the HBCU'S?
    The HBCU's should allow service projects to improve the campuses. Why can't we come together as a community? 😢
    The students shouldn't have to worry about housing on these campuses either. (NCCU)😢

    I graduated from Elizabeth City State University in 1986, and ECSU has been and still is a part of the University North Carolina College System that is funded by the state of NC to provide funds to 16 colleges in that system. For years ECSU got pennies and the white schools in the state funded system got the large majority of the funds. Now that was done due to the racism that was present then. Now that it is fairly done, when you look at ECSU campus now it looks like a real college. And that is mainly due to white students enrolling. that is the only reason why improvents have been made.

    If public schools around the country don't start soon in producing better students, then the H in HBCU will literally mean historical. It will only indicate that in the past these were Black institutions. This is especially true of government owned HBCU's, as I assume many of them have had a significant increase in non-Black students. Until academic achievement improves the cultures among Black people need to compensate for the long ongoing decline in this area, especially. We should have always continued the practice of compensating for the disadvantages we understood existed. Intoxicating woke-ness seems to be reinforcing the attitude that the disadvantages we face are so substantial that nothing we can do can improve the quality of our lives. We surely have acted as if we are insane - doing the same things over and over while expecting different results, but we also exhibit what looks like dissociative identity disorder. We say we are resilient, spiritual, creative, some even say magical, but at the same time we are saying we suffer from trauma and not just constant continuous everyday real-time trauma, but trauma passed down through our genes. Which one is truer to our condition? Is even success in a chosen profession not enough to foster a sense of worth in many of us. It seems some of us feel performing well in their chosen profession is not enough. They seem to need to do their work in a flashy performative manner, as if they really never wanted to be the professional they are, but an entertainer or par with a Michael Jackson or Beyoncé. The sociology and psychology departments in these schools have a big job to do. When will we see some report from them on what practical applications exist that they recommend to treat our emotional and mental health problems? It is like they are just saying " to know better is to do better". That is just useless rhetoric just like "information is power”. Information is power only if one has the power to put it to use. Afrocentricity has been around for half a century at least. What have we as a group done with the knowledge it brought to us? What good would it do to build new institutions, if the present ones are dysfunctional? In what area are we acting as systemic and structured as the racism so many say is the predominate cause of our problems?
