Incompetent Boule Class
That's a VERY good question. Sometimes it seems like somebody sent them. Almost like they are White Supremacists who aren't clever.

Duh Josiah! The difference is obvious to ANYONE with eyes, SIR! 4 letters long vs. 6 letters long! Boom!!!
Naw I'm messin with you, big bro. Real talk when I heard this, I paused the video....and ran it back.... because I SWORE I heard it wrong.
THEN I made the bigger mistake of going through the comments...Mannnnnn these HBCU people are as disconnected from reality and as UNACCOUNTABLE as the administrations they're up here caping for. Meanwhile, the students continue to have their voices drowned out and ignored. It really does beg the question, WHO are those people REALLY working for?
I can sort speak to the zombie HBCU mentality, given that I am an HBCU alumni myself.
When I was a student, we would complain and cite BS going on at the campus as well. Difference now is social media and celebrity coaches. I'm willing to bet the same bozos whining about Ed Reed and caping for HBCUs were out there protesting with me.
Now they are grown and want to act brand new. They wanna act like living in poor conditions and using substandard school equipment is some badge of honor 🎖. Like it so sick rite of passage. It's sick and twisted.
Add in a big dose of self-congratulatory pride and you have a nasty cocktail that'll make you deny reality. Meanwhile, the school administrators "misuse" the federal funding and no one is the wiser.
Those pictures are disgusting and for them to allow Black students to be in that environment shows their disdain for Black society.

They don't care. As long as they get a cut of the schools federal funding, ticket sales, and private donations.....all the student could die and they wouldn't care.
This looks like your boy Sovereign.....the red tie guy. Apparently him and Rolly Polly won't be exchanging Boule hugs at the next NAACP luncheon.....

I'll try to be balanced. The HBCUs are grossly underfunded. Also, because we are the most underserved population, we have far more students needing financial aid than most PWIs (predominantly white institutions). Therefore we don't have as many students on average who can pay their way.
That being said, the administrations at most HBCUs are old school boys and girls club of bougie Blacks. They don't run the school well. The senior administrators are overpaid. Furthermore, we don't as a people support the school financially as we should. These are OUR schools. Legacy of great people, who all blacks no matter who you are, if you are on code, should be supporting. Our schools are and have been colleges and universities serving the diaspora and native Africans and frankly all parties should be doing more. They show love via admissions to all Blacks.
We need new, dynamic blood who are more selfless and the schools need to be more in line with the B1 philosophy frankly. Stop trying to please white folks and start trying to be part of this thing we got going on here and in other spaces.
BC should have let Reed have his rant and look at the long term, bigger picture. He was good for the school overall but the school leadership looked at him as one of 'them' negroes. I am sure. They are boule` and by nature want to cater to whites and the establishment. This class of blacks have been in power of the HBCUs at their height when all the best of black people went there and they had the best students and athletes. They managed it while it declined. And no idea how to recover. But as a collective they will not relinquish control to those outside their class.

I grew up in DC (couldn’t afford Howard though) and was always hearing how bad Howard’s dorms were. Seemed like every semester there was something outrageous happening. Sad thing is we internalized it as par for the course for Black-run institutions. Never heard this stuff about Georgetown, George Washington or American U. It was embarrassing.
