    John Lewis and Elijah Cummings would be so proud of you, Noah Harris. The last 4 years feels like 4 steps backward, but it's not really. Things have gotten better in the last 70-80 years. Young people like you are the promise of tomorrow. Good luck and Stay safe.

    How many years has Harvard been around and just now this is happening. I'll say what I said when the great Kobe caught and passed Shaquille's ring count. What took you so long.

      Flying against a headwind is difficult, requires a LOT of fuel, STRENGTH, DETERMINATION. Like the duck my suegra saw in a hurricane, sometimes all of the effort just keeps you in one place, even moving backward, but FORTITUDE and PERSEVERENCE will succeed in time. Every storm fades into blue skys eventually.

  • @cuddlycuddlycactus2999

    White Harvard chose a Black Person of voluntary migration not as a coincidence but for the same reason Congolese Joy Reid is the first prime time Black female anchor. Some Black people will have a problem with me pointing this out even though I disparaged neither for their accomplishments. They won’t however have a problem with the slaver institutions refusing to include those that built the institutions with their hands and dedicated 400 years of service to the country. Instead of helping to demand inclusion for ADOS Americans, those offended will tell us to shut up, even though they come from the middle to upper class of their mother’s birth country- pretending class interests may have no conflicting principles in relation to Black Liberation. Still we don’t flee and we welcome all in the diaspora and all not, to partake in the American Dream. We’ll catch up! But don’t say we didn’t ask for allies. The Black Electorate is ADOS and not Harvard immigrants.

    Amazing but we are still waiting for the first one that descends from Enslaved Americans. That is the true test of our progress. This fails that test but media won’t tell you that. Still good for his accomplishments and best wishes

      What do you mean by "we are still waiting for the 1st one that descends from enslaved Americans" and "this fails that test"? After saying those things you finish with your lousy "best wishes"? You need to stop and sit in silence (no tv, no music, no talking just having a conversation with self), and think before hitting the enter key.

      🙄🙄🙄 In this 21st century, still preserving the same divisive / self hating mindset . How do you think black people ended up as slaves , in the western hemisphere from Africa ? Including our African ancestors who were owned and sold , by a relatively small number of black slave owners /traders in America during the trans-Atlantic slave trade ? WAKE UP !

      @@mohamedkamara8153 the ship stopped in different countries obviously. In those countries we fought similar but different battles and won at different times and won different victories and lost different battles. This isn’t offensive to point out or “self hating”. It’s just facts. Also some of these countries are now majority Black while others are not, so still we have different battles. We’re still one diaspora. Like I said this fails the test of America living up to its promise to Black Americans.

Thanks for the enlightenment. Very much appreciated. I hope the white supremacists in America , who want all black people in America to go back to Africa , will have a clear understanding of this distinction.

      Why not just watch them all and then form your own opinion? Usually only ignorant people watch fox, oann or newsmax etc. Without watching other outlets that might report differently. There is way more than just one left wing media just like there is way more than just one right wing media. Plus dont just watch American news.... there are other counter that produce news too you know. They also talk about the USA and its important to hear what they say as well... especially if they are "fake news" from rusia/china because they devil is in the details not in the event
