But it has also made me acutely consider that African America sits in an opportunity zone to present African partners with a third option between America and China.

You mean it is not always necessary to have 18 years experience by the time you are 20? SHOCKING.

Investors cannot make up their mind on this one. A quarter ago, companies were punished for not enough AI infrastructure spending. Now, the market is upset they are spending too much.

College Station has a lot of things....free speech is not one of them.

While the Washington Post cannot be saved, other media companies probably should convert to nonprofits and create a shared endowment.

Media as an entity is just not profitable and Bezos is not willing to protect its voice.

To go work at THAT university or any number like them without knowing what you are walking into is absurd to me.

Go to schools that value what you value. Not one with a history (and present) of Texas A&M.

As of this writing, 1,690 HBCU alumni are actively seeking support on @donorschoose.bsky.social, the crowdfunding for classroom projects. 1,661 of them work in historically underfunded schools. That’s 98% of HBCU alumni teachers on the platform working in institutions starved of adequate resources.

Giving Back to Those Who Give: How HBCU Communities Can Support Their Alumni Teachers

"1,690 HBCU alumni teachers, 1,202 have projects with zero donations. They’ve submitted requests for books, supplies, technology, and classroom materials, and they’re waiting for someone to care enough to help."

Tesla would just serve as a SPAC style IPO for SpaceX. I am unwilling to invest in anything Elon Musk works on, but I will say this ....there are more than a few investors who are interested in SpaceX and not Tesla and merging the two may end up being an unnessary risk.

It worries me that so many did not think this administration would go as far as they kept telling us they would go.

Frederick Douglass once said power concedes nothing without a demand.

I humbly disagree. Only when it fears consequences to its actions. Power concedes only when it fears more power.

It was never about crime or illegal immigration. But everyone with half a brain knew that.

The African American community continues to be the great economic subsidizer for others.

People will complain that you have too many resources.

People will complain about what you do when you have no resources.

People will complain. 🤷🏽‍♂️

@lesliefarnsworth.com That picture header is chef's kiss.

I am legitimately amazed that reporters are able to keep a straight face and try to analyze anything this adminstration does with a seriously objective narrative.

The Federal Reserve: Democracy’s Unexpected Guardian On January 11, 2026, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell delivered a stunning statement that crystallized a question many Americans have been avoiding: Is the Federal Reserve the last major institu…

The Federal Reserve: Democracy’s Unexpected Guardian

"It’s the language of someone defending an essential democratic principle, that institutions making decisions affecting all Americans should operate based on evidence and expertise, not political coercion."

Jerome Powell says Donald Trump has launched a criminal investigation against the Fed The president denies all knowledge. A bizarre fight could get nasty

I would love to partner with someone to create a new CPB. By our team's estimates at HBCU Money, you would need an endowment of $28 billion to replace the funding that was taken away - no small task. But absolutely worth the effort.

Bsky maybe my last hope for decent social media.

Even LinkedIN has gone to the - I am not sure what would be an appropriate description, honestly.

I really have to stop engaging HBCU athletic conversations with alumni. The lack of economic understanding makes the conversations impossible to have.

Randomly. The more I watch clips of Suits the more I am glad I did not finish watching the show.

I need to spend more time on Bluesky. It seems to be the only sane place on Al Gore and Beyonce's internet these days.

If my grandmothers saw the way I just folded that fitted sheet they would make me go outside and get a branch off the tree.

But what of love? What of truth?

He constantly promoted violent rhetoric against so many communities it is hard to even keep track, but you want those same people to hang their heads in sorrow or empathy for him?

Do you promote the smoke and then cry when it is YOUR house that is on fire.

The correct response would have been Kirk never having a voice in the first place. That the party that hid their hand as they gave him the megaphone should have silenced him long ago.

Lest we forget, just a month ago Kirk tweeted, "“Stay armed. Stay vigilant. We have no idea how many sleeper cells are inside the United States. It’s an unforgiveable weakness Biden left this country with. Stay alert. Pray.”
