An HBCU that is not inherently revolutionary in 2016 is irrelevant.

America's put American Black Folks in such a bad position, empty plates and glasses now get us full.

Some days I feel like I will die for them. Some days, with them.

I am a descendent of a whole bunch of Black folk who couldn't be broken.

If you had the option to pray for me or fight with me, you better choose the fight.

I am skeptical that distance education based on asynchronous Internet technologies (i.e., prerecorded video, online forums, and email) is a substitute for live classroom discussion and other on-campus interaction. Distance education students can't raise their hands to ask instructors questions or participate in discussions, and it's difficult or impossible for them to take advantage of faculty office hours. Teaching assistants don't always respond to email, and online class discussion boards can be neglected by students and faculty alike. In this sense, the "process of dialogue" is actually limited by technology.
