Do you honestly believe that? A black man would pretend to be pro-black while scamming black people? Seems farfetched to me :troll:

His school may very well be a scam, but how come these big name black celebrities never pooled their money together and build an institution for black people or donate to a credible black cause?
It’s not their responsibility. Schools are built, opened and closed annually.

What lies
He’s lied about the grand opening multiple times. The school was supposed to be open in 2020.
He’s lied about the amount of money he’s got.
He’s lied about the contractors. He claims a black contractor stopped working with him, then he claimed another black contractor sabotaged the HVAC.

You can't just buy a school building and say you have a school. A school, and a private black owned institution at that, requires MILLIONS in upkeep.

I'll say the same thing about Tariq...you can't just open a museum with a $1 million either.

A school requires accreditation from the state as well as funding. A school also requires

- staff (janitors, cafteria workers)
- faculty (teachers and administrators)
- computers and internet (Umar talked about having typewriters...yes. typewriters. At the school)
- running water and working plumbing (he had port a johns at the FDMG festival cause the plumbing isn't working
- facility inspection (probably all sorts of lead, abstestos, and carbon monoxide in the building that hasn't been tested or removed)
- a seasonal curriculum
- schoolbooks
- a payroll for staff and salary for teachers/administrators

Umar has not thought of these things. And he obviously isn't.

He’s lied about the amount of money he’s got.
How much money did he say he get and how much you think he got
He’s lied about the contractors. He claims a black contractor stopped working with him, then he claimed another black contractor sabotaged the HVAC.

If I remember correctly, he stopped a grade short to avoid that. I was surprised to read about that kind of loophole. Every year of education is important, espcially early on, so you would think it wouldn't be easy to get around that.

Like what do y’all realistically expect him to do, y’all really thought it was possible for him to crowd fund a school with money from black people
desoto tx can sell him desoto east middle school right now for 5 dollars... nothing wrong with the school...got the nice fancy sign he is lookin for.. right across the street from the desoto police department

all he has to do is change out the sign cost em like 6-800 bucks... n paint the school...no contaminated soil

school is walkin distance from the black market

nikka still wont have a school up

The endeavor is too large for his pockets.

He should host summer camps across the country.
I would respect doctor Umar a lot more if he just admitted that he was in over his head and didn't know he was doing.

But it was that stubborness and pride that he displayed on his interview with Lord Jamar that showed he would rather stand ten toes down on his square and not ask for help...unless it comes in the form of donations. He assured people that because he came from a background of educators that he could do it all on his own.

He wanted laborers, plumbers, and HVAC techs to work for free. He seemingly had this idea that all he needs to do is ask for donations and the rest would fall into place. It doesn't work like that.
