Nikkas will naturally turn to HBCU's when Trump is in office and the PWIs get rid of their diversity programs
College is not the only way to acquire a career with a decent income. There are apprenticeships programs and Trades that also lead to well paying careers and normally do not incur the debt that going to college does,
So our concern should be based on the why a lot of young brothers are not attending instead of just the fact that they are not attending.
Black Community Should Encourage Trade Schools as Much as Colleges
Encouraging Black Americans to train for available jobs will increase Black homeownership, wealthwww.regalmag.com

PWIs arent the ones hurting HBCU enrollment. This is something else.
The we dont need college message being pushed by many shyt podcasters is making an impact.
If you've been following Richard Reeves you'd know this. Problem is in our society is that if we do something to help men it appears that you're anti woman.
A lot of intersectional politics does a number on Black Men

Youre not Black, so stop posting
WTF is this racist and stereotypical assertion you are making? Most Black men are not into street culture. Most Black men are not a criminal or following drill culture. To assert this is the reason for the lower numbers shows you are ignorant of what the majority of Black men are doing, and get your view of Black men completely from entertainment and not actual real life interactions with us.

Its not racist. Inner city kids go to HBCU. If they getting killed or going to jail at high rates, thats going to affect enrollment. everything is not racist. Yall turning a blinfeye to issue just to avoid being labeled a c00n or racist,
Look at what happened when Obama made My Brother's Keeper. Also talk to people. A lot of society thinks being male is synonymous with being privileged. We get screwed as a result. I want Black women and men to succeed but you have to concede that women have been propped up more and men have been seen as invisible in our society. Richard Reeves is on the forefront to help young boys and men. Even though hes a British dude, he talks in his book about the experiences of his Black stepson and how that's impacted his work.

Interesting.
Some concern yes.
Here's the thing...every 18 and 19 year old, generally speaking, should be doing 1 of 5 things, not including preparing to graduate high school....
1. HBCU
2. PWI
3. Community College/Trade School
4. Military
5. Some endeavor (music, entrepreneurship) that's not filled w/ risk of multiyear lockdown or death
Shouldn't be a single Black Young Adult just chilling 24-7 at 18 or 19 years old or hugging reckless fukkery .... young knuckle heads never learn seem to learn though, so ....
