She waited for UNC’s apology and job offer before rejecting them 😂
Always go where you’re appreciated, not tolerated ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Last line....EXACTLY!!!
right?
Exactly 💯
@Scott Bruce Because they're American. Why don't you go back to Europe? Serious question. Pretty sure, every other race just tolerates you given how you've treated the Japanese and Vietnamese (Asians), how you've treated the Native Americans, how you've treated Muslims, how you've treated Blacks, how you've treated Hispanics and dehumanized them and how you think "Jews can't replace y'all" (chanted by the alt-right white supremacists in Charleston). Maybe just leave? Because this country will continue to bring in immigrants and will only get more multi-cultural. 🤷♂️
@@blackieblack I actually tolerate racist white people. I'm Hispanic. I have no issues with any other race. Would you go back to Europe, instead?
"It is not my job to heal the university. That's the job of the people in power who created this situation in the first place."
facts on facts on facts
I would have thought that WAS the purpose of her taking the job at UNC.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Given that her crowning achievement, the 1619 Project, has the same legitimacy as the Confederate "Lost Cause" theory, I don't think anyone is expect her to "heal the university", or anywhere she goes, for that matter. Her entire intellectual purpose is, just like the Dixiecrats to which she owes some degree of her intellectual heritage, to sow division through historic revisionism.
@@americandirt7834 it looks like your entire intellectual purpose is to sow division on youtube through nonsensical/ignorant comments.
Excellent reply
“It is not my job to fix the University of North Carolina.”

Nikole is TIRED. We are TIRED of the second-hand treatment, being the last thought, having our work not valued, etc. It is entirely embarrassing, that a woman so accomplished as her, who has given so much to her alma mater, would be slapped in the face by them essentially.
They really didn't want her and she doesn't want them. She is going where she will be valued and appreciated. Good for her!
She's one delusional woman, no doubt.
@@lockandloadlikehell you so mad lmmfao
@@lockandloadlikehell Not at all. She is a brilliant clear headed FREE thinking black woman who plays chess and not checkers and has accepted a position at a University where she is appreciated, celebrated and NOT tolerated. Well done Nikole. Well done. 💪🏾❤💙 The Mecca. #StayMad
@@delasoulish Sure she is- meanwhile every reputable historian laughs at her silly claims that have no bearing in reality. That's what happens when you admit affirmative action applicants, instead of the most qualified.
It's like letting a woman play linebacker for the Texans, even though there's no way possible she is qualified, despite her ridiculous protestations to the contrary.

@@freiheit3566 She’s clearly been filling the seats at the buffet. I’ll give her that.

Majorly. And very publicly. I applaud her for understanding her worth.

Talk about UNC dropping the ball.
👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿
Lets face it: Universities and colleges in the U.S. have lost their way, they are compromised at so many levels. We need to stop telling our children that they must go to college, or that college is the way to a better life. If we stop enrolling, only then is meaningful change likely to occur. Universities have become businesses, and it's time for the customers to go elsewhere, perhaps online, to further their lifelong education.
They're adult daycare centers today. Just go to a trade school, it's pretty cheap and you'll make way more money than trying to be a professional grifter, especially when this 💩 implodes on itself.
Tuition fees are like a bubble in the stock market; they need to be reset.
@@Ghost-pb5vl Yup
It'd probably be cheaper to earn a degree through Coursera from a university outside the country than it is to earn a degree at a stateside university.
Stupid, is the new "cool" in the new Country called "Trumplandia."
As she said: “It’s not her job to heal that place” totally agree, these people should know better this is 2021🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨

She sure didn’t feel that way when she attended and graduated from UNC
@@flyguy2617 🐸👺
A moment of clarity. Sounds to me like many others that she was perhaps partially blind. Good for her now that she can see.
@@curtisrozzelle6758 it’s not a matter that she couldn’t see. But sometimes we put ourselves in unnecessary situations thinking that it will change along the way.
Thank God she realizes that she is too good to put herself in any uncomfortable work situation.
Very proud of her she and every woman and every human being deserves better that to be in a toxic workplace.
It's amazing that just speaking the truth about slavery and civil rights is driving so many people to show their true feelings on race
@John Rando explain how it's racist and prejudiced towards whites and Asians?
@John Rando also I said civil rights not civil war.
@@bigreaper7425 don't waste your time trying to understand his ignorance.
Actually, a lot of schools, especially in the south, have never been truthful in teaching about the Civil War, slavery, and the Civil Rights movement.
That is the real reason that so many Republicans are fighting against CRT in public schools. CRT is not taught in K-12 schools. But those schools are starting to cover slavery more honestly.
1619 project is not factual
I wish black athletes feel an urgent need to leave UNC as well …
"I decided I didn't want to do that anymore." I hear that sister. I am so proud of you.
Jimmy Jenkins I’ll bet they weren’t relieved about losing 15 million dollars. But Maybe the donor who opposed her will pony up.
@@deborahfrederick916 Talk to 'em! LOL
Nikole has nothing to prove to anyone. Her work speaks for her. And it's UNC's loss, not hers. Bye, Felicia! 🙄
Amen! We here in NC don't want anything as divisive as she is...why they considered her. Thank you Howard!

Clearly, the faculty and university administration supported her hire. But trustees and donors always have the last word. What must be done to remedy that? They shouldn't have so much influence on the educational system.

Black teachers should teach at black schools if they could
Absolutely... always
Okay....so this is even worse to me now learning that UNC is her Alma Mater !???? What kind of phuckery is that?!
That's really unfortunate - this whole debacle.....but good for her for refusing the bull....
Exactly.!!! Even more embarrassing that it’s her alma mater
SHE SPENT HER WHOLE ENTIRE LIFE TO BE ACCEPTED BY HER ENEMIES.
Should politics be part of this process? Wake up Gail. We’re all controlled by the political process. This lady is right, UNC is wrong about this tenured position.
*That’s a problem. You shouldn’t be. Being handcuffed to a political party playing political games is modern day slavery & insanity.*
Being in academia I am certain, EVERY tenure process is political.
There's a paradox here that traditionally tenure was to protect you from politics but yeah, how do you get there without politics? Maybe it is a process like Supreme Court Justices who are essentially tenured, you spread out who gets tenured over many administrations and that at least smooths out the ebbs and flows of politics.
UNC got what they wanted but lost so much more. Their loss is Howard’s gain. Will the powers that be run a freeway through Howard University?
Someone else should have gotten the interview.
Very NICE GO TO A HBCU AND KEEP IT MOVING 💯 TEACH WHERE YOU ARE WANTED !!!!
I pray our young people are watching, Couldn’t be more proud, 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Higher education in America is extortion.
Agreed: look at the idiots affirmative action has allowed the admittance of, for decades now.
Now it's cime home to roost.
25% of colleges will fail in the next decade, so congratulations to her on her idiocy- it couldn't come soon enough.
All publicly funded schools should be closed immediately, but I'll guess we'll have to wait a little longer, huh?

Just don't go to UNC. There's other better places to go.
I'm glad she's going to Howard University where she'll be appreciated and respected. She is correct on the Revolutionary war preserving slavery, coming off the Somerset case in England. The colonists knew the wind was blowing in their direction.
Where are your facts on that?
@@skipfluck4299 that's like asking where are your facts on Shays Rebellion. Your suppose to say, "hey, I never heard of that; I'm going to look that up." Do your research or totally ignore it; either way I could care less.
She will most definitely will be respected, not just on campus but the whole city of dc will open up for her!
No she wasn't. Her 1619 project was rejected by historians for errors.
@Aaron Hackett O.K.
Congratulations on the new position at Howard!! This is a dynamic opportunity for students and faculty to collectively expand on the continued work needed to expose the miseducation of all Americans.
I hear you. Honestly, the miseducation starts at home, I know that can be a bit much, however I am 62 years old and originally from Tulsa, Oklahoma (Black Wall Street), my mother and relatives told me about "Black Wall Street" when I was in elementary school. Also, our school systems nationwide is a disgrace when it comes to teaching history. I live in New York City (Just as racist as the South, but on a different level), our hideous gov. cuomo during the covid19 pandemic had/has police officers guarding columbus statue at columbus circle. We all know about christopher columbus, New York City has the largest parade in the entire world on columbus day in october. Last, but not least, cuomo stated on news MSNBC & CNN and anyone else who was covering him during the pandemic that the statue (christopher columbus), will not be removed, it is part of his heritage (italian).
Funny how he can scold the south, when New York City is no better. Howard University has just positioned Nikole Hannah-Jones, to continue her great work she is doing, we need more Nikole Hannah-Jones in education to expose all the lies about united states of america extreme one sided history.
But do realize, you’re speaking about miseducation….she’s teaching and speaking ONLY to black students…do you think it’s only black students that should be getting this education? UNC has a racially diverse student population…Howard does not. Feelings aside, if her goal is to spread the education she teaches, it would ultimately be better served in a more diverse school
@@flyguy2617 I assume that you're white as a Black person would know that Howard may be an HBCU but their population doesn't solely consist of Black people. Believe it, or not, people from all around the world and from myriad ethnicities study at Howard as with many HBCU institutions. Maybe a good place for you to begin is to visit some of those campuses and maybe sign up for a class or two. You will see just how diverse and excellent we are!
@@bryanwiley5511 Education begins where the opportunity and desire is afforded. We do what we can, where we can. I don't know much on Gov. Cuomo but truthfully I'm cool on must politicians these days. I'll check more into the information you provided. ✌🏽 PS. There is so much of Black history that we all need to be introduced to. Thankfully, the veil is being lifted and we, those who choose to endeavor to seek and know the truth, are seeing how whitewashed much of history, domestically and internationally, has been as a result of colonialism and imperialism. We're finding our way back and that's what counts. 😊
@@SageMoon8495 Your remarks are right on!
That's not right. Thank you for informing the public.

She already a Pulitzer Prize winner, good for her. Badazz move to decline the tenure, after she was the 1st to be denied.💥
And you know that she was probably more qualified than most of those who were given tenure at UNC without delay.
She’s such a woman with integrity, she’s an inspiration and unstoppable like the women before her. I wish I was 18 again so I could go to Howard.
Same!
I attended HU from 1973 to 1975. It was transformational.

It is UNC's loss, no question: same goes for Harvard who lost out on Dr. West.
this lady was called out by multiple historians for factual errors, stood her ground on the basis that she was being cancelled for her "interpretations", and then backtracked on a core statement like half a year later. sorry, but she ain't a shining example of an academic. my condolences to Howard Uni.
Well our former President, President Donald Plump, was factually wrong multiple times and was called out by renowned scientists, experts, other leaders, historians, etc. But he's still highly influential in Republican circles. The right hasn't cancelled him. Why should anyone crucify this respected woman for a couple of errors in an overwhelmingly long and successful career? Totally ridiculous.

This is a fantastic move; African-American standards for education depreciated with integration on every level. I believe we need to return to our roots, educating our own kids according to our standards and using a faculty that looks like them. Hopefully, the next step would be for HSBCUs to produce more educators for the primary and secondary level. Howard has quite a legacy of highly respected statesmen and stateswomen.
So the solution to combat perceived racism in society is to....segregate people by race?
Great gain for Howard University. Booker T and WEB DuBois would be elated!
@Charish Brown Considering the state of this country today, I'd beg to differ.
Perhaps, some decades ago, that might have been a cause of concern. Yet, today, whatever puts students in seats count, especially for an HBCU.
That some people have choices when experiencing prejudice is so.
Good interview. Great decision to teach young people so they can go out and reach others with a truthful message.
Maybe AA college sports players will decide to by pass racist white schools for an HBCU.
Yes, the reintroduction of segregation....and judging everyone first and foremost by melanin. I'm sure Dr. King would be cheering in approval.
Amen
American Dirt Dr. King would Definitely be cheering approval for Black athletes to prioritize HBCU’s. I am surprised you think he would not. Just because he fought for equal opportunity does not mean he didn’t see the danger inherent in our integration and assimilation into White society.

I don't understand what the fuss is about? She got offered a job, turns it down, and goes to a different university. I'm all for people negotiating themselves, but damn people out here aren't getting jobs in higher ed with PhDs. Just because everyone who was offered the position and was white got tenure is really not enough to prove discrimination in a case. Were any other African American candidates not offered the job or were offered the job before her? How does she know? How does something so trivial like this gain national news in a time when so many horrible things are happening. I'm really not impressed by her pitty party crying over spilled milk.

I agree, Howard University punches above its weight. The first doctor I've seen ever who REALLY knew what to do with this complex patient and understood was one who was trained by Howard. They aren't taught that all people are medically white males, and they're taught to think out of the box when needed. Beyond that, Nikole Hannah-Jones earned a place in a university that has a commitment to what she does, and she shouldn't have to fight to prove that. Additionally, now that she's fought the establishment for her place, she had to know she'd be treated by the Chancellor and Provost as a second-class citizen. If you have to fight THAT hard to get your employer to do the right thing, they're not worth working for.
Someone left a comment in reply to my mentioning the medical education community teaching that everyone is just like white males, and for some reason I can't see it on here, but I'm going to address it anyway. Up until fairly recently, essentially all medical schools in the US were only using the white male as a model for anatomy (and just tacked what they felt was accurate female exceptions in the most obvious places). Whether they chose to use only white males as models in terms of not having any other options or awareness, or whether that was deliberately exclusive, I couldn't tell you. It's only been very recently that medical researchers have really gotten into researching women in their entirety and discovered there are a lot of non-obvious anatomical and physiological differences, and started to research differences between ethnic groups. If this fellow who said I was telling a lie about medical schools teaching that everyone are medically just like white males is reading this, open a browser, and look it up. Most are STILL doing that because the research hasn't been fully indoctrinated into med school yet. It'll probably take another decade or two before insurance companies "get it".
🤬 it's always about race anymore. EVERYTHING
Welcome to America.
It's sickening. They are writing a whole new definition of racism. Tired of hearing about it. Racist roads, racist weather, racist food, blah blah blah. Id bet 90% of the people in these comment sections, never had or talked about how bad this racism is,before January of this year.
Some people think it's not i think your right man
@Scott Bruce those audits ain't gonna help you. They're going to prove that what you thought was happening, wasn't - and what you thought wasn't happening, was.
Let's not forget that Strom Thurmond, Leslie Graham's predecessor was a Dixiecrat Democrat before he was a Dixiecrat Republican.
@@unclesam8174 Is it sicking because it not true, overstated or it does not affect you so the people should just find ways to overcome it? Because it appears that she chose to not continue to fight it, she decided to go somewhere else. What whole new definition of racism are they writing? Its funny how you mention food and roads. When you know there have been roads and food that African Americans could not freely go on or eat in our history. Travon Martin experienced that before his death. Someone saw him and felt he had to be doing something wrong because he felt he did not belong there. My father has a master's degree and we moved into a new a nice majority-white neighborhood in the '90s and I was pulled over a number of times and neighbors tried to stop me and ask me questions and all I was trying to make it home. Or are you saying what my cousin loves to say. Don't Talk About Old Stuff LOL

@King BullyRock You mean Congrats Nikole Hannah-Jones for finding her way out of the racist cesspool known as UNC.
@@AM-qm4vc naw, they just aren't risking their university on a race baiting, professional victim. When the four years end and things return to normal, it would leave them hurting.
@@unclesam8174 "They aren't risking their university...bla, bla"...EXCEPT they OFFERED her the job. She turned it down. Try again, lol.
She's not a journalist, she's a fiction writer.
Good for her. She handled it very well.
She don’t want to be treated like that again, don’t blame her for that. She wants security and stability
Good for Howard!
She deserves better than the treatment she received from UNC. Hopefully she will be at an institution that will appreciate someone of Nikole’s stature. Wishing you continued success!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Such a dumb move by UNC. This is a major reputational blemish for them. Are there people from any other part of the country other than the grimy South who would even think of UNC if they weren’t offered big scholarship incentives? Honestly Jones’ mistake in this process was even trying to teach there in the first place, she can do way better. It may be her alma mater but life is about moving up, not going back where you started. If you’re white and go to UNC, how will you explain to employers you went to Racists-R-Us?
Tenure isn't supposed to be a prize granted for one body of recognized work, that's what you a got a Pulitzer for...Tenure is supposed to recognize an academic's repeated contribution to their craft by consistently creating quality research that adds knowledge to their respective field.
She was qualified for tenure. Her colleagues supported her getting tenure.
@@monarnyc My post wasn't oriented toward her qualification status, but the weakness of it compared to other journalists and academics that have put together more quality products. Sadly, the 1619 Project would not stand against peer review or thesis defense. Pray we never set the bar this low in the hard sciences.
Could 1619 be an issue?
It is for those who wish to deny history.
It's always one give us Reparations
@@deborahpinkey1264 Not very bright are you.
@@deborahpinkey1264 The 1619 Project is complete ahistorical trash and anyone promoting it shouldn't be allowed to teach.
As you know Deborah Pinkey, certain People will never get it and you know why.
It's better she didn't take it. She would never have been happy and would have been nothing but a thorn in their side.
INDEED!!!
She’s a thorn anyway
@@maclemaster5966 why?
Not having heard UNC's side of this debate, I would have to say this is absolutely the right move for her.
The state of US intellectual discourse, everyone. How unfortunate.
UNC “side”? sure you heard their side. They didn’t want to give her tenure. They never said why. She is going to Howard where she will be tenured. End of story .
@@elainejenkins4159 They didn't offer her tenure immediately because she simply does not have the same experience as the other Knight Chairs; they all had PhD's, she has only a Masters. Additionally, her most well known work was scrutinized by respected historians and found to be inaccurate and politically biased. In fact, they did offer her a 5 year position with the potential for tenure after the initial period, which she turned down.
Good for her she was doing that college a favor , they proved themselves to be unworthy of her talents.
This was a great interview. That discriminatory Board of Trustees is appointed by the state legislature, so this is cautionary tale for us voters in NC. Vote locally and at the state level!!! It matters. I Love Nikole Hanna-Jones. And I don't blame her! Go where you are respected, supported, and valued. (at all levels)
UNC's loss and Howard University's gain!
She’s not a journalist she’s an activist. She shouldn’t get tenure and this is a huge win for the state of North Carolina.
And what are you...an inept insecure coward?
@@Deerych so your argument is to call me a name? So you have no argument about what I said about this fraudulent journalist?
@@Deerych what you just did is in a sense a form of intellectual cowardice. Too cowardly to engage the idea so resort to an ad hominem attack. Looks like you’re the coward Dee.
Her work is Exemplary! To bring her literal wealth on board to any establishment is a great benefit to that entity and everyone it serves.
UNC Chapel is showing their level of foolishness and racism, so she doesn't belong there. She is too valuable to be stifled in such a place.
I wish her ALL THE BLESSINGS HER SPIRIT CAN HOLD! The 1619 Project is OUTSTANDING!!! I am so proud of her KNOWING and STANDING in her POWER and not fold on her WORTH!
UNC Chapel will be the example of what happens to environments of academia that refuse to grow forward in health ways that nurture diverse communities. They will crumble.
Walk away from things and people that do not serve your highest good!
