Noone is hating one you because of that but when you make statements like

"BUT, just in pure education value...I don't think HBCUs are as good."

That is where you fuck up. Maybe in YOUR AREA those schools were better but in my graduate program Developmental psychology focusing on Black child development, no Ivy league school could match this institution considering that much of the research in this area has been done by those associated with Howard. Also research centers that focus on this are here including a huge population from which to gather data from.

Your condemnation of HBCU is not at all "objective" (as there is truly no such thing) because you are looking at it from one standpoint AND you condemn it on FALSE assumptions that show you really don't know what you are talking about.

"Activism is the practice of using an internal, self-determining source of power to live one's life and/or enact some sort of change. Power is the ability to define reality, while self-determination is to decide or define one's self. Therefore activism, is not simply something done to right some wrong or to fight some cause but rather it is a way of life. Activism is the way of life where one can define self and change anything that may impede or control the reality that one chooses to live."-Solarus
