“I tell him what he doesn’t want to hear”
“No yes-men around. They bring no value”

Did yall have 5th grade graduation songs? If so, do you remember what it was? I’m from the 205 and graduated the year Ruben won so ours was Flying Without Wings
Let’s be very honest with ourselves here. We are late. Our HBCUs are LATE. We are late to the party on ALL fronts: NIL, Conference realignment, college playoffs, etc. When things started shifting we should have been shifting & moving right along with them. But too many times, we only move when the issue actually happens vs. thinking ahead.
We are asking black families & athletes to now choose a different route aka HBCUS when we should have been prepared for this a long time ago. We sat on our hands & did nothing to prepare for what was to come. What made everyone think this was not going to happen?
Now, we are scrambling like we always do to have kids choose different when in actuality, it’s too damn late.
A short list of everyone who got reparations:
- slave owners who went bankrupt after the Civil War
- Jewish survivors of the Holocaust
- Japanese survivors of US internment camps
- Native Americans through the Indian Claims Commission and multiple other legislation
- Miners for radiation exposure
- Sterilization victims
- U.S. farmers during Trump 1.0
There is no reason Black people shouldnt be compensated for centuries of slavery and decades of segregation. We’re not even out of Jim Crow.
