Watching now. Great information but they need more energy in that room.
Everybody who is speaking is monotoned and subdued.

Hold on, I think I was watching the pre-show discussion with HBCU presidents.
The real doc is on now ...

Yeah, it was in two parts, 9:00 - 10:00 and 10:00 to 11:30. The 10:00 piece was shown last year at a theatre on Battleground.

I heard about this HBCU documentary last year and was looking forward to it. As a diehard supporter of HBCU's I really enjoyed it. That said, I was disappointed with the events they selected to highlight. They covered some of relevant topics but it left out way too much history. I know they had only 90 minutes. Howard, Hampton, Fisk, Famu, and A&T got good coverage as well as Southern.
