The Ruling Oligarchy Is Pleased with Howard

The Washington Post reported on 27 June that Moody’s is pleased with Howard’s progress in its struggle to right its finances. However, is our dear University, under the leadership of its current president (a “foreign Black” Howard-trained physician with a Howard MBA) selling us out in order to do right by the ruling oligarchy? This is the kind of issue we discuss in JUSTICE OR ELSE AT THE CAPSTONE

RULE BRITANNIA, BRITANNIA RULES THE WAVES

Remember that? Remember when “the sun never set on the British Empire”? The Fall of Rome came after half a millennium. The heyday of the British Empire spanned the period between the Industrial Revolution and the Great Depression, that is to say, at most two centuries.

Now, as the great Caribbean bard, the Mighty Sparrow, sang: “London Bridge is falling down.” Brexit appears to be the final nail in the coffin.

The British Empire was an enterprise of global proportions that created incredible wealth for the island nation. People from the plundered nations have come to the center of the fallen Empire to reclaim some of what was stolen from them.

What goes around comes around.

Justice or Else at The Capstone

The United States of America was founded on the principle that Africans are only three-fifths human and therefore could be reduced to the status of chattel in perpetuity. The election and reelection of a Black man to the highest office in the land utterly wiped out the final lingering theoretical underpinnings of this principle. The current process to elect a successor to the first Black president is laying bare all of the bloodcurdling bigotry generated by over two centuries of white supremacy. Not surprisingly, the undercurrent of xenophobic rage masquerades as an attempt to find a way back to a so-called “greatness.” At this juncture of the nation’s troubled history, there is need for the premier historically Black college / university (HBCU) to live up to its call to provide “Leadership for America and the Global Community.” In order to live up to the challenge, “The Capstone of Negro Education” must fix itself. There must be “Justice or Else at The Capstone.”
