Jemele Hill: Black Athletes Need to Leave White Colleges
Breitbart ^ | 9/05/19 | WARNER TODD HUSTON5

Posted on 09/05/2019 8:15:25 PM PDT by Libloather

In a piece for the magazine’s October issue, Hill insists that black athletes are doing blacks no good by allowing “white” colleges to use the student’s athletic prowess to raise funds to benefit the college.

After noting that 2018’s top college prospect Kayvon Thibodeaux brought a lot of notoriety to a historically black college when he was looking colleges over, Hill pointed out that the NCAA and the “white” colleges that participate in the conference make billions a year off the sweat of black athletes.

“Almost all of these schools are majority white,” Hill disparagingly wrote, “in fact, black men make up only 2.4 percent of the total undergraduate population of the 65 schools in the so-called Power Five athletic conferences. Yet black men make up 55 percent of the football players in those conferences, and 56 percent of basketball players.”

This disparity works against majority black colleges, Hill says.

Sounds good to me.

But then if they do, she and her ilk will then be bitching about the racist honkeys segregating their schools and ‘keeping the black man down, denying him a good education’.

Soooo... segregation is only bad if... white people do it?

MLK must be redlining in his grave.

Definitely sounds good to me. While I have nothing against black folks who work hard and try to live decent lives, this is not exactly a description of the typical felonious afrolete. They are the worst of the worst and terrible role models for just about anyone.

Hill added, “some black students feel safer, both physically and emotionally, on an HBCU campus—all the more so as racial tensions have risen in recent years. Navigating a predominantly white campus as a black student can feel isolating, even for athletes.”

Every other month someone sets fire to something in a dorm at the HBCU campus in my community. Yep, sound safe to me...

It’s famous:

Black grads of black colleges DO NOT contribute to them.

It’s rich Jew$ and honkie$ using it as some type of Guilt Salve.

They want sports to make up for this glaring $hortfall.

They also are not organ donors, generally.

Perfect. Let the black colleges foot the bill to get them national exposure for the NFL draft. Without it, most would-be players will have to actually rely on what they learn at that black school.

So they go to a HBCU and get a degree in grievance studies, if at all. Great step up.

This is the type of thinking that leads me to believe that Ms. Hill learned nothing about logic. But she did learn to say, "Yes, mastah!" to her owners in the Democratic party.

One clear result would be black guys who are starting RBs for example, at Ohio State perhaps, sitting on the bench because a better RB, e. g., USC, has the starting slot. How many white colleges are there? How many HBCUs capable of putting together major football programs?

Maybe the black culture could promote professions other than sports and criminal activity for younger generations to aspire in their academic pursuits.

Isn't that called an arrest record?

apparently Jemel is advocating that there’s nothing more noble than a highly talented black athlete pointlessly sacrificing his life potential by eschewing highly coveted scholarships from strong, nationally successful college athletic programs that produce good chances at professional athletic careers and instead signing up with some school with a no-name athletic department with no-name coaches with no-name athletic programs because black college or something ...

Great, campus rapes will drop by 90% or so. Similarly, other crimes.

Only 55 and 56 per cent in football and basketball? Coulda swore it was more like 80%.

Go ahead and go. The professional scouts will still find the best black athletes at Grambling or Southern or Alcorn but the tv networks won’t. They still show the traditional power school matchups because that is what sells.

Like Seinfeld once said “we root for the guys who wear the same laundry we do”. Doesn’t matter what race they are.

She obviously doesn’t know around whom blacks are safer.
