Leaving aside the blatant paranoid racism of the author, he could benefit from going through a remedial writing course or two.

If this is what passes for writing by college professors, it's no wonder that so many kids are nearly illiterate when they graduate from 'coleje'.

"...Then White people are quick to wanna say "you black people are so paranoid..."

Let me guess. This person probably got an "A" on this "essay".

You hit the nail right on the head. I was having a discussion with my sister-in-law, whose son goes to UMass Amherst. She told me he made Dean's List.

Normally, my first thought would be "That's great!", but instead, my first thought was, "What the hell does making Dean's List mean at a place like UMass Amherst?" My nephew is a good kid, and smart too, so I don't have much doubt he would make Dean's List no matter where he went to school or what era he studied in. I was disappointed that was the first thought into my head. And an accurate concern it is, too.

African studies is where they put blacks who would be failing elsewhere. I would imagine it's also a way to hire black professors without damaging a real department
