Education for the sake of education is about as useful to a people as voting for the sake of voting. Education only matters if it can:
- provide skills needed to sustain a people based on the needs of that people
- provide an economy that is self-sustaining that will continue to grow said economy to provide employment for those with the education
- provide a livable wage for those who work within said economy
Black people do not have an economy to employ the masses of college educated black people now. Large swaths of college educated black people struggle to find employment commensurate to their education levels now since blacks can't hire them and non-blacks don't care to.
The economy comes first. You build an economy by confirming the needs of your people and then creating the businesses, and therein the jobs, that will produce the products and services to fulfill those needs. Everything is an outgrowth of that.
