Now, cheerleaders are joining in on the action.

Howard is one of the country's few historically black universities, with notable alums such as New York City's first African-American mayor, David Dinkins, and Congressman Elijah Cummings.

Sad state if a school with a once-proud history.

...notable alums such as New York City's first African-American mayor, David Dinkins, and Congressman Elijah Cummings.

If that's the best they can turn out, they might as well close down for good.

I worked with a Howard grad, a woman with a so-called engineering degree. Totally incompetent, dumb as a rock, and racist as anyone could possibly be.

The absolute most privileged individuals in the country! Priority in hiring. Free college. Undeserved promotions. Light prosecution for real crimes. Immunity from responsibility for their actions. Ability to falsely accuse any White for anything at all, and be taken seriously.
So STFU!

I think being unpatriotic is becoming an “in” thing to do.

America’s black females many issues. And they are not addressing them in any good way.
