    I know the intention was good, but the negative reference to "she ended up going to an HBCU....", .is really negative and damaging when you have students who got high ACT scores going to HBCUs by choice when they could have gone to almost any school in the USA. Please note that HBCU schools take students who have low scores and turn them into scholars ( like my brother who has an PhD from a major white institution and is a college professor) and further develop those like my daughter who had top ACT scores, testing out of her first year of Chemistry, Physics and Calculus and could get into almost any top white university, (she is a science researcher at an Ivy league institution). Both are graduates of HBCU institutions.

    When the United States was born, slavery was very common. Between 1530 and 1780, only in North Africa, a million or more European Christians were enslaved. George Orwell said "The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history."

    I try not to comment when there’s controversy but I can’t help it.
    My history teacher always put it this way- getting the constitution passed was difficult, and the founding fathers had a bureaucracy like we do. It was hard enough to get the constitution as it was. With many slave owners in the US- do you really think, if they’d put abolition into the constitution, that we would have a constitution? You have to keep in mind the constitution was made when our nation was founded - we were a new, very fragile country.
    I’m not advocating for slavery, not even then, but they compromised. In 1807, there was the Act Prohibiting the Importation of Slaves. They had thought slavery might die out, and abolitionists continued to work to ban slavery all together- abolitionists were usually the same people who campaigned for women’s suffrage, and other reforms, such as improved education.
    You can’t hold all of America, I should say, all white Americans, accountable for one group. Those white Americans who can trace their roots back that far, which I don’t believe is a majority of white Americans, probably find their ancestors were poor and unable to do anything about it anyway.

In return we got diseased blankets, and all our land taken, our families where separated by hue of skin, those who made it to Oklahoma and rebuilt a city where bombed! Those who stayed behind where redesignated as coloreds, black, negro, black and now African American, though most of the people of color are indigenous to America.

It will drive down the property value of their homes, it will make them fear their kids' grades will deteriorate and they'd be influenced into gang culture. It will cause more white flight and investors pulling out of the community.

    I read today a story about your tenure letdown you have experienced.
    So the first question I asked myself, is what is 1619. Though this video is only the second I listened to today, and I'm far from knowing everything, I can honestly say from today forward I will challenge my way of thinking and analyzing any and everything that is talked about when it comes to Race and equality
    Please for the love of all things holy, do not stop writing and teaching us. The way you explain things is an absolute must have in our society and this written word you speak. Awesome.

There was OPEN discrimination against white students especially for on-campus jobs. There were, also, GRANTS & SCHOLARSHIPS for which WHITE students need not apply.The school itself, the classes, the dorms were NOT segregated. However, if the dorm prefect was black, white students were forbidden in the dorm office. Any issues white students brought up were dismissed, without a hearing. White females were scared to be outside their dorms at night. SO, MS. HANNAH-JONES - Is that "right" or "just" or "equal"??

    Black history needs to be told. My high school education absolutely discussed in detail Black history including slavery, emancipation, Jim Crow and the Civil Rights movement. As for the 1619 Project, Hannah-Jones is more of an activist than a historian. Her work needs to examined and criticized for inaccuracies. Remember, the country was set up by White people to benefit White people. It shouldn't be a surprise that concerns for native Americans were swept aside. And African slaves were considered factors of production, not citizens. The story of slavery, as I learned, is much wider and encompasses much of the Americas. Brazil, by far, was the leading importer of slaves and North America was a much smaller market. And slavery was not widely used in the Northern States. Hannah-Jones is part of a movement to deconstruct early American mythology due to sins of racism. Our celebration of our country binds Americans together, creating cooperation, a shared destiny and harmony. We have a wonderful government that happened to be created by men who abused humans of African and Native origin. Yet tearing down statues mostly creates division. Instead, face our history and elevate historical heroes that are right in front of us: Lincoln and Martin Luther King.

    The Civil War was about money the same as all wars.No one gave a fig in government about slavery.The South succeeded over money and tariffs on its trading partners and used the issue of slavery to promote fear in the White population to fight.The Northern Industrialists through their influence on Congress got tariffs passed on the South’s European trading partners and their imports of finished goods to the Southern ports,which were making them rich.The North wanted the South to buy it’s finished products instead of Europe’s.The North also used the Slavery issue to promote fear of a loss of jobs in the North if the South got more powerful with the use of free labor.The irony is that after the War and a half million dead the country and its industrial base would grow and the machine was rendering the use of slavery as a useless expense and that experiment is about to reach greater heights today as AI takes over many jobs.The age of the average low skilled worker is coming to an end.Although the Western nations have long rid the scourge of slavery from their shores it is still practice in Africa and in the Parlors of the sex trade industry to an estimated 50 billion dollar industry.

    One more thing and King expressed this before he was murdered! The Civil Rights Act of 1964 did not cost the government anything. One would think that the most logical and non-invasive approach to Jim Crow (which the term itself is condescending) would be to make a system of separate but equal which was vastly unequal, EQUAL. Or to at least make marked movements toward equality which could only happen at that time in a separate paradigm not integrating people behind the curve into those with excess. The only viable thing about the act that I agree with is public accommodation.
    But not integration and integrated schools in-particular. The Civil Rights Act and integration was a scam to boot designed to quell any black identity movements and further fragment the mind and so-called black community. For the record, the hood and ghetto are not the black community, we don't have one because of integration. So this is the one thing I do not agree with this lovely and intelligent woman. DAMN integration! Reparations is a debt owed, cut the check!

    Those that didn’t like Miss Jones’ HBCU comment may have missed a message. By wanting better perhaps Miss Jones meant being in a multicultural institution with a multicultural student body. How many Whites attend Tuskeegee, Howard, or Grambling? Do these institutions have the best facilities? I didn’t see that in the mid Nineties at Grambling. I was shocked at the poor exterior quality of some of Grambling’s physical stock. It was depressing. The white institution I trying to escape in Northern Louisiana had newer more modern looking buildings. They also had the Deep South attitude where Blacks had a “place” never to be left. So no, the buildings at the White college didn’t make it a better place for education. It’s just Grambling had me feeling as though it was below the standard of the white college. I didn’t transfer to Grambling nor did I finish at the white college. I was an Army war vet trying to work two jobs and attend college. I was mostly in a re adjustment to society struggle. That was about 1995 or ‘96. Just at the end of 2021 have I got more peace back in my life. A long struggle. Lastly, racism’s real. It needs to be solved. It’s going to take more God, more love. Racism does indeed destroy lives. Peace.
