Instead of just boycotting SEC schools in states that redraw district maps, donate to #HBCU schools & provide NIL money so athletes get good education & don't take as big a financial hit. Create broadcast channel for HBCU games. Watch those instead of SEC. See map: hbcufirst.com/resources/hb...

Willing to cut a deal. . .6d ago

I just listened to a #podcast from @progresstx where they were suggesting that #BlackAthletes choose an #HBCU over an #SEC #university because, #football.

I used their "Connect with us" form to point out that this isn't on Black athletes to solve. White students — athletes and non-athletes — should consider alternatives, especially #HBCUs, too. Sometimes we don't have #options, but when we do, we should choose intentionally.

I'm attending a state school because I'm #disabled and my tuition and fees are waived. So I understand that not everyone has this option.

@stacescases2.bsky.social Lemme guess... Hillsdale is not a #HBCU.

TIL that @howardu , my alma mater, had a #hamradio station back in 1934! Here’s an article about W3EKJ in the 2/23/1934 The Hilltop student newspaper. #HBCU #BlackMastodon
