Black supremacist Jemele Hill calls for black athletes to leave 'white' colleges

Black supremacist Jemele Hill, who in the past made salacious tweets that President Trump is a white supremacist, is now calling for black athletes to leave "white" colleges [she doesn't define the term] because she believes that the schools make all the money and the athletes are not compensated for their play in sports.

Hill evidently doesn't see the value of a college scholarship or the public exposure an athlete gets for his performance, which often translates into a lucrative sports contract at best, and an education at the very least. But when everything you see is in terms of a person's melanin, you often miss those nuances, 

The former ESPN writer who was suspended for calling President Trump a white supremacist without evidence [beyond some dumb things he has said], is calling for black athletes to leave those 'white' colleges. She is now a staff writer for The Atlantic, a leftist magazine that fired conservative Kevin Williamson for being Kevin Williamson after giving his opinions about abortion.

Hill's first article for the magazine, titled, "It's Time for Black Athletes to Leave White Colleges," has drawn a range of responses -- including assertions that Hill is "pro-segregation" or "racist," and that she isn't the one to decide where an athlete should go to school.

Hill argues that black athletes help bring in money and attention to the "predominantly white universities that showcase them," while Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) continue to struggle.

She writes that mostly white schools’ [aka schools whose students are mostly lower on the melanin scale than HBCUs] multibillion-dollar revenues have been built on the “exertions of (uncompensated) black athletes," claiming that an elite black athlete attending an HBCU raises awareness of the institution, whose endowments combined are less than a tenth of Harvard’s.

The racist Hill writes that HBCUs have graduated a significant number of black professionals, a thriving HBCU lifts up the community around it and finally, that some black students “feel safer, both physically and emotionally," at an HBCU – “all the more so as racial tensions have risen in recent years,” a claim that needs actual data to prove.

“Navigating a predominantly white campus as a black student can feel isolating, even for athletes,” she adds, again with nothing to substantiate her claim.

"The flight of black athletes to majority-white colleges has been devastating to HBCUs," she writes, positing, "What if a group of elite athletes collectively made the choice to attend HBCUs?" What if it isn't a "flight" at all, but merely a choice? Usually a flight is a journey from somewhere to somewhere, but it isn't as if black students are fleeing from predominantly black institutions to go to white institutions--but if they were, that would be their freedom to do so.

Hill, like most liberals, doesn't practice what she preaches--she attended Michigan State University [Go Spartans!] which is not an HBCU but merely a U. She left ESPN last year after incessantly attacking President Trump and making ESPN something other than a sports network. She tweeted that President Trump is a "white supremacist" and a "bigot" who was "unqualified and unfit to be president."

But ESPN did nothing initially to punish her for the tweet but then suspended her for two weeks in October 2017, after she violated the company’s social media guidelines again. She called upon fans to boycott the Dallas Cowboys' advertisers after owner Jerry Jones demanded his players respect the American flag and national anthem and not take a knee during its playing or they would be benched.

That was a real empty-headed move, to boycott your own family's money providers.
