Funny to see commentators who never set foot in an HBCU saying things such as "well played" to Howard University. HBCUs like @HowardU are not "playing" with PWIs. HBCUs do not exist in the shadow of these institutions. Hannah-Jones and Coates know that very well.

In case you are unaware of how nefarious enslavement was, how wrong they knew it to be and against the Christian faith. The enslaved had every right to rebel.

This HAS to be part of what the Black community and all of America addresses...begins in slavery. The historical evidence is all in my book, A Curse Upon the Nation.

Robert Smalls was one of the Black delegates to adopt progressive state constitution in post-Civil War South Carolina. He would live to see his achievement dismantled in 1895, when whites regained power and instituted Jim Crow. bit.ly/2VGV2Mt
