Honestly who cares, these are few lower-tier schools, in an age there are many black students at much more prestigious schools ...


Name me a 20 PWI schools that has produced more black professionals than Morehouse, Howard, Hampton, Spelman, NC A&T, FAMU, XAVIER, DILLARD, and TSU over the last 30 years...The overwhelming majority of black professionals did undergrad at HBCUs

I'll wait......

HBCUs were originally found to serve disadvantaged African Americans. If some of these schols are no longer primarily serving that end, their funding should cut and they should be treated like any other college.

A comment from an NPR article detailing how Bluefield State College transformed from a HBCU to white school, and what African Americans from around the surrounding area now think of Bluefield State College since its change:

"I sent this article to a friend who attended Bluefield State. His reply was interesting. One, that Bluefield has a large black population, but very few of them even go near the college much less to it. And secondly, that this was the first he had heard of most of this. He had vaguely known that Bluefield had been at least a mostly black school at one time, but was under the impression that that it had been far longer ago than the 60's. He had never heard about the rest. Apparently nobody there talks about this stuff - at least in the white community. He's wondering now if the blacks avoid the place because they do talk about it, and are steering clear of it because they believe they are not wanted there."

Reply:

I go to school here and work here. It is fair to say that this is exactly how blacks in this community feel about BSC. Sad but true....

What struck me was that: the state of WVA clearly stole a valuable asset from the black community at-large. They knew as well as the black students did, that the black students would be discriminated against by local landlords, and would thereby be forced to leave the school. And what's with hiring all white teachers, when the former administration had no problem filling those same positions with black professionals? Black teachers are role models! As the researcher quoted in the article showed, black colleges make unique contributions to the black community and its economic well-being, producing unusually high numbers of graduates in education, math, and science. I went to a women's college, and we had much the same outcome among our graduates. Shame on those W Virginians, trying to hamstring and then steal a cultural asset like that. Change the law too - they have no right to benefit from their thievery.


In fact, what the white insiders of the day did at the time was give the school a "poison pill", not unlike in the corporate world. They eviscerated the school, diluted the support system it previously offered - just to make life that much harder for blacks. They knew damn well how that school was so helpful to the black community, and they just couldn't take seeing blacks move up in the world. So they poisoned that school, to damage black society as best they could. Reparations are in order, as I see it."

Cacs used housing discrimination to push blacks out of Bluefield State College.

@superunknown23

On the college board's pernicious and racist plan to replace black students with white students in Bluefield State College (which came to fruition a few decades ago and has remained the status quo ever since):

Wade Wilson in reply to Gene Demby9 months ago
I'm saying that the fact a bombing was carried out on the campus is being treated as circumstantial in the reasoning behind why Bluefield went from majority Black to nearly all White in 2 decades after Brown v. Board. I'm also saying that in my opinion, ignoring the role that violence (whether it can be considered "justified" or not) plays in agitating and prolonging racial inequality directly feeds back into the problem creating a self-sustaining cycle of injustice and violence.E

EV in reply to Wade Wilson9 months ago
Are you unaware of the extensive history of violence carried out by whites against black people, or just ignoring it? To say "well, a few black people bombed the college, so of course they had to go" makes no sense. White people have been carrying out insane acts of violence in this country for years, and where are we? Oh yeah, still here. I guess it's different when we do it?

Gene Demby NPR in response to Wade Wilson9 months ago
Ah. Black people brought it on themselves.

Meh.

I don't see the problem . A lot of pwi's are becoming black . Fair trade off :yeshrug:
eh not really. I feel like as Black people we should support and build up our own stuff and not be so quick to abandon it

look at baseball. Negro leagues were popping off as well as majors. but as soon as they opened up the majors, you see a decline of black participation in baseball... and now baseball is on that :mjpls:

seems like we should learn from the past

It's also not true that "PWI's" are becoming black. A very small percentage of students at PWIs are black.
