The Truth
HBCU’s are the fairest institutions in the land when it comes to admissions, social conditions, acceptance of alternative lifestyles, etc. And if you’re a minority like an asian or a crakkka, they’ll damn near roll out the red carpet for you. An average white student can get damn near as much money in terms of grants and scholarships as a Black honor student. I saw it with my own eyes at State.
Facts

HBCU’s weren’t just black people

I really hope Kamala didn’t make Howard a target by setting up shop there for the election. ICE agents were down there the other day trying to “recruit” students to join them.

shyt is weird rn.
How is this a Kamala problem? They literally were saying what they were going to do in Project 25. But folks were more concerned about a population of people across the globe that would look at them as second class citizens then the domestic issues overe here

Above the fray.
Dictator Trump is/will be trying to bully all colleges into dropping programs and coursework that doesn't fit his agenda. Or lose their federal funding.

He's currently trying to bully the PWIs with $1 billion + endowments

At some point, he will attempt to threaten Historically Black Colleges and Universities from offering Black centered courses or carrying depts, that RUN counter to his agenda.

For right now, many HBCUs have partnerships with corporations and larger PWIs. The one cancelled in OP was a minor one. There are longstanding student/faculty/resource exchange programs between schools, usually created by Black students who are alumni of both. Several from the $1 billion+ endowment group being targeted by Trump.

Under Trump's definition, these would be DEI programs that need to be eliminated. Including scholarships/fellowships funded by these corporate and academic partners.

Trump is bad news for Black people, and especially in higher education.

lol all I said was I hope Kamala doing her election night shyt at Howard doesn’t make Trump act petty and target the school. Yeah they were gonna be targeted anyway, but don’t rush that shyt with added petty fuel. I wasn’t implying anything other than that.

No question the agenda is set no matter what, I’m just speaking to Trump’s penchant for being petty and vindictive. Howard was already gon be a target due to what it is and what it stands for.

I will say, the student body will turn all the way the fukk up in response I have no doubt of that.
