Over the decades since, Legislature-decreed disparities continued to exist, but things improved in fits and starts into the 2000s, when per-student funding was equalized through the work of alumni-legislators like Mickey Michaux

But the thing to keep in mind – the thing that can't really be avoided, since it's the entire reason the law school exists – is that NCCU School of Law is a historically black institution

That served the law school well in getting private funding from companies like Intel, whose workforces are overwhelmingly white But the thought of racial minorities getting an education makes MAGAland very angry

So soon after Trump took over, the US Department of Education decreed that NCCU was required to remove all references from its website indicating it was an HBCU or had a legacy of serving students of all races You won't find anything now, except via pics of the students+alumni: law.nccu.edu

Thank God no one will know the school that plays sports in a conference of only HBCUs is one now.

Now that Intel is in hock to the Trumpist federal government, eliminating its commitments to help fund efforts to bring non-whites into the tech sector had to go too It's just racism, all the way down

Trump needed to eat into voting margins with black voters to get re-elected. Now that he's back in office, he doesn't need them – and is betting a number of the folks who crossed over will keep supporting him anyway bsky.app/profile/cape...

Tech CEOs then: "need for speed" Tech CEOs now: "zeal to kneel"

It helps that all current "Tech CEOs" have no actual background in tech and are really stock market/hype manipulation CEOs because that's what investors demand these days.

Intel at least has the excuse that they’re doing real badly rn and can’t afford to piss off the govt when they want govt support

Black voters who "crossed over" for Trump now have choices to make. They can admit error (not something most ppl are good at). Or they can dig in and construct impenetrable fortresses of auxiliary rationale (something most ppl are mighty good at). Hispanics likewise.

Decreed. That doesn’t sound like a legal term in a democracy.
