Alcorn which frankly although isolated is a beautiful old campus with historical buildings my family renovated fifty years ago....I’ve still got some of the old bricks and railing in my barn

The old Windsor ruins stairs are there at the chape recycled after the fire.Windsor is close to Lormanl....I was there two years ago

Blacks colleges worked.....I know a white lady taught at Jackson State....she did not suffer fools gladly and quite a woman.

She died last year....got her PhD at 50

He was a marvelous man, and his wife was as charming as he was. When I was invited to their Home he was so proud of this Marantz quadrophonic stereo! His year in our Neighborhood while on Sabbatical at Binghamton University was a great time for our Family and his.

When I was a boy Washington DC still had a black high school, Dunbar, that was famous for producing highly educated graduates. This was before affirmative action or anything like it, anyone who graduated from Dunbar was the real deal.

But then, according to Thomas Sowell, the end of racial segregation following Brown v Board of Education blew it up:

"For Washington, the end of racial segregation led to a political compromise, in which all schools became neighborhood schools. Dunbar, which had been accepting outstanding black students from anywhere in the city, could now accept only students from the rough ghetto neighborhood in which it was located. Virtually overnight, Dunbar became a typical ghetto school. As unmotivated, unruly and disruptive students flooded in, Dunbar teachers began moving out and many retired. More than 80 years of academic excellence simply vanished into thin air.

The road to hell being paved with the good intentions of liberalism.
