Wow...I had no idea they are trying to do that in MS now. I was a really young kid back in the early 90s and I used to always see black folks repping HBCUs everywhere I went. I wonder what happened to that?
Many still rep them. Also the HBCUs won a settlement against the state of Mississippi in the 2000s. The state was shorting the HBCUs in millions of dollars on some racial shyt. After the HBCUs won the settlement the state said well we will pay you back this money under one stipulation. That you increase your non black enrollment to 15%. Well the majority of the state is black and white. White Mississippians are not going to HBCUs there. So what the schools did was very smart....they started recruiting them poor ass white euros from Eastern Europe. They got that enrollment up and got that money. Them racist folks in government were made as fukk that those black schools figured out a way to get paid.
