*EXCELLENCE*

I hope they USE THE MONEY WISELY. The majority of that should go to BUSINESS INCUBATORS FOR STARTUPS!!! Providing startup capital will help launch many businesses that will EMPLOY THEIR STUDENTS AND CREATE DONORS TO SUSTAIN THEIR SCHOOLS WITHOUT GOVERNMENT. That is how the PWIs are so successful without even without government grants. Their students have high entrepneurship rates which employ their students and they are able to become donors to support schools.

Also, many HBCUs are OWED money from the government.

This says they support funding, but this funding is owed Now, not to mention the decades of funding that was denied, talking is cheap, there’s No direct action being done. Every other group has No problem getting direct immediate funding, but the BC votes for Nothing in return. Symbolism, talk, investigations, analysis, barbecuing, chicken appearances is an insult. Cut the Check!!!

Hate to break it to you but the small percentage of black folks who are impacted by that HBCU money pales in comparison to the amount of Americans who would be impacted by the reclassification of Marijuana. That's why he's not leading with that. I also think the idea that the average black person in the middle of this hellish inflation is going to see money going to HBCU's and be more motivated to vote for them if they're not already voting for them is shortsighted. I'm a Howard Alum and attending Howard now and no one in my family is going to be extra motivated by that. Also unfortunately because HBCU's are so under funded to begin with the money they give always feels like it doesn't make an impact because they're constantly trying to catch up with yesterday. A lot of the students hear this and ask where's the money going because our issues are still our issues.

Congress makes appropriations and passes bills. The President signs off on bills. Please pay attention and vote in local and state elections for your representatives and see what happens. He couldn’t even wipe 10k worth of student loan debt out what makes you think you’ll get reparations when no one in congress is discussing it let alone a bill. All I hear from the local state reparations committees discuss it and then nothing happens. Start there. 😊

When the panelists/guests speak, please have their names displayed. 😊

Is this strictly for HBCUS or will other kinds of universities get access to this money? And when will the 1890 landgrant issues be addressed? I'm taking the win though. Just want to know will the states still hold this money back from being granted in some capacity
