The UNCF should give the money back if they don’t want it, then the Koch brothers can donate it to the United White People’s Children’s Fund.

What? You say, there is no such fund? Why not?

I would think African Americans are Americans also and would like a strong private sector.

What is so evil about balanced budgets and going out to become taxpayers themselves?
What is so bad about reducing government so the tax burden on the economy is reduced?

I kind of wonder if the African American community at large have any idea of the actual history of the party they depend on and stick to like glue?

Well the professor is right - the government DID build the Black Middle Class.

It built it very carefully, to be as absolutely small as possible.

Did Koch actually write the word Negro? That proves he’s racist!

...federal programs “built the black middle class...

The black middle class that was strong and growing up to the 1960s was destroyed by the Johnson’s federal programs that the democrats embraced as their new slave-master relationship.

UNCF should return the money and let more of their potential students go begging.

In actual practice, their students won’t have to worry for a scholarship. Their campaigning for coin has long been overcome by affirmative action laws and policies to the point that if you are black and can’t get funded for a higher education then you just aren’t trying and aren’t serious.

I applaud the Kochs for raising this issue that portrays how ignorant, racist, and intolerant the left and blacks in this country are.

Take back the money and build a scholarship fund for single white males who are at the bottom of the pile when it comes to scholarship consideration.

University of Pennsylvania professor Marybeth Gasman argued that UNCF should reject the money because it is tainted with the Koch brothers’ political advocacy, which she says works “to undermine the interests of African Americans and the institutions that support them.” The Kochs want to shrink the federal government, but Gasman objects, saying that federal programs “built the black middle class.”

How many groups associated with that piece of filth & convicted criminal, George Soros, have given money the the UNCF without a peep?

I hope they DO give the money back, making a REAL statement... About what booger eating moronic race hustlers are running or supporting the UNCF.

Gasman is correct.

In January 2008, just as the Great Recession started, 24% of Black Americans who had a job worked for a government agency or worked for a government contractor.

the Kochs should have established their own scholarship fund for the deserving

giving it to the UNCF smacks of pandering to a rasist inept organization and throwing millions down a rathole

Pardon my correction:

The Kochs want to shrink the federal government, but Gasman objects, saying that federal programs “built the black middle lower, poverty class.”

$25 mil might buy a few tickets to the train with a destination off the Democrat Plantation. One ticket for a ride off is one too many for the ‘Rats.

Really? I read that a Black middle class was established by segregation laws in which there were black banks, Black hotels. Black restaurants, black doctors all catering to black clients.

DE-segregation in the 1960s destroyed this all of this. I can't prove this as I am not from the south.

Want to know how bad Koch Derangement Syndrome is? There’s an office supply company in Des Moines, Iowa, called Koch Bros (no relation). Yep, they’ve received death threats! Libs just hate for the sake of hating. They don’t even know why or who.
