I know this sister was hailey educated but I didn’t know how deep now I know that I don’t think for nothing she is a world educated sister
And yet UNC didn’t bow to her blackmail for tenure. Gee, I wonder why?
And that’s the “RUB” right there “Highly Educated”.
but becoming a teacher with no experience and with guarantee of not ever being fired is unreal.
She wouldn’t stand for second class treatment! She went to Howard, and many will follow. It’s historical fact, that UNC is NOT an equal opportunity employer.
@Anony grazer the hate is real. The money from alumna is real too.
I love both these people. Funny and smart, a great combination
A lil crazy
UNC just got themselves a “self inflicted wound” disrespecting this world renouned educator and history expert..because “Her knowledge made them feel “icky” about their klancestors…
You mean they dodged a bullet
@Cynthia Gonzalez She actually threatened them for the tenure so if that isn’t her attempt to extort than what is to your revisionist delusional ideas?
@crasy kills you mean youre pale and butthurt
@KWELI OFFICIAL Yeah extortion, you know, what happens when someone _knowingly_ has the clout of a pitchfork-and-torch-mob and makes unreasonable demands of others confident they have an angry mob at their back willing to destroy anyone who stands in the extortionist’s way…you know…Dems, Socialist Dems, BLM, Antifa….
@smaky smack I’m Mexican but thanks for proving my point.
This is real talk. I went to Boston University adding to the paltry 1% black student population. Trying to get my son into Howard. Just sent this to him. You guys need a show.
Further cementing the brainwashing and racist priming.
Good! UNC screwed up!
Freedom : Obviously your opinion, but not UNC.
Yeah, because fools everywhere will be up in arms over Hannah-Jones’ failure to strong arm tenure out of them…but then the Left isn’t a meritocracy for damned sure.
Daily Reminder: January 6, 2021, Impeached former President Trump attacked America during a joint session of congress certifying the 2020 Election
Twice impeached, twice acquitted.
@Trumpwon And miserably lost the 2020 election. Miserably. Don’t forget that part.
January 6th a unarmed veteran was killed by a bloodthirsty capitol officer and yet the Republicans did not burn the country.
@chance lewis Correction: A domestic terrorist who vandalized a door outside the Speaker’s chamber in the Capitol, defying lawful orders to cease and desist her criminal behavior, was justifiably killed by an officer sworn to protect all members of Congress from threats, foreign or domestic.
@Lecuyer Dooley Oh what threat did a unarmed woman pose? Also amazing how the “terrorists” were let in making it literally the most peaceful riot ever as opposed to the 22 people killed by BLM and billions in damage, but I suppose to you facts be wacist.
This isn’t new. If one is interested there are many examples of male academics purging feminists from academia in the 1970’s. I was there. I wish folks would think about the historical purging of people who won’t tow the party line. Native American Studies programs have been decimated. I support this woman, to the max, but it is important to see the wider trouble.
the wider trouble. she wanted qualify immunity when not wanting it for police.
She’s a lunnie. Was likely political but overall a good move.
@01:10 i ardently disagree.
stop simping for ivy league schools… hbcu’s included.
“We ain’t interested in the BS!” Come on Joy!!
Man just like that legislation, don’t be bothered, we are the Majority, don’t nobody care about Howard , you don’t need that name, for anything, just like Bottoms , come at em at a different angle, from all sides and dissolve that mess ,let em they lil hateful school, don’t nobody care
Oops got the school wrong UNC not Howard ,but yeah just keep moving, let them stay hateful
the blind ignorance of republicons who refuse to get vaccinated, many of whom will die from Covid-19 or the Delta Variant might just equal or even surpass the number of people denied their right to vote. THIS COULD BE POETIC JUSTICE IN THE MAKING!!! LET THEM DIE
funny you bought up that subject. do who what population is the least likely to ever take the shots. funny you think that same group has been mistreated so bad they wont take of themselves. and from the violence on the news they just dont care about themselves.
What a great duo of anchors.
Teaches demonstrably false version of history.
Who does
@Lecuyer Dooley She created the 1619 which when questioned was destroyed for being fake revisionist lies.
My boys are not even considering UNC as a college for basketball. UNC made a huge mistake
Why?
Dude hit it on the head. This is not real until 5-Star basketball players leave or avoid UNC!
“The goal is to have the public read something crazy in the newspaper and immediately think “critical race theory.” We have de-codified the term and will re-codify it to annex the entire range of cultural constructions that are unpopular with Americans.”
“We have successfully frozen their brand – “critical race theory” – into the public conversation and are steadily driving up negative perceptions. We will eventually turn it toxic, as we put all of the various cultural insanities under that brand category.

Marxists in high places!
Kids in America’s schools need to learn our racial history in an objective accurate way that’s free of slants from political ideologies.
