He wasn’t disqualified for not being black??? What is the world coming to???!!!
It was a good article until he uttered this pap.
God forbid he praise God, a good work ethic, and good friends to get him to where he is.
He didn't learn much over the years IMO
And where are the historical white colleges???
Why do we have school busing for blacks after huge amounts of govt force and tax dollars but it's fine for blacks to segregate themselves??
There's NO justice in America anymore.
The whole article is a load of crap. White students have been attending Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) for decades, and not because they grew up with African-American foster parents.
I live within 25 miles of two HBCUs. Both have had white kickers on their football teams for years, and one of the schools had a starting white QB. Beyond that, HBCUs with professional schools often fill out their classes with white students, because many African-American applicants don’t qualify for admission to law, pharmacy or medical school.
One of the HBCUs in my area has a well-regarded pharmacy program and they place their students in internships in a number of area drug stores, including the one where I get most of my prescriptions filled. About two-thirds of the pharmacy students who have interned at my drug store, enrolled at the HBCU, have been white.
The great irony? No one accused the HBCU of reverse discrimination by admitting white students ahead of minorities. In fact, it helps keep the program afloat by filling up each year’s pharmacy class. Of course, the school doesn’t publicize that fact, but it’s a necessity to keep the program open. Obviously, the number of white students enrolled at any HBCU is rather small, but the idea that the guy from Morehouse is unique is simply rubbish.
“Economically now, I’m at the top, and so from one perspective I recognize that I’m very fortunate, and a lot of that is white privilege,” said Packwood.
He’s a dumbass. I have nothing against him personally, but if he can come from a broken home, move in with a foster family for a year, and go from a loser to straight A student, then go to college and finish number #1 at that college where he was a minority and reduce ALL OF HIS SUCCESS IN LIFE to a mythical “white privilege” that clearly did not do a damn thing for him...THEN HE’S A DUMBASS!
Obviously a case of white privilege
He’s like a very smart professor I once had: a Ferarri going backwards at full speed.
Ugh.
