I daydreamed about that in this thread: bluedeathvalley.proboards.com/thread/19689/uncg-lost-students-past-years?page=1As far the possibility of a white chancellor, after reading the various positions on this particular thread my position has changed. I'm all for the best man for the job, period. For me, the viability and continued improvement of my beloved alma mater far outweighs the need to have someone of a particular race leading the way. It is simply not right that I can state the top three professors at T I had that helped me along the way the absolute most were all white, but turn around and be against a white chancellor. That isn't to say that Black professors didn't help me along a great deal as well or were incapable of doing so. But it is to say to hold someone from a position based on race in 2024 is stupid. Period. Bravo DOOMS. Diversity of thought is a good thing. I applaud the courageous spirit you have displayed.

Racist defined- a person who is predjudiced against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minorityor marginalized. where is your racism. I disagree, minorities can be racist. I've heard black people say plenty of racist things. Aggie2039, you win, stop fighting, you have established that we are not owners, we are sharecroppers. We don't own their university; we are not a majority; the government is majority white, we are a microcosm of a white world. FIND YOURSELF AND BE THAT! You are in a world that sees our growth as competition, a threat. How much do we have in common?

Why hire a white chancellor and continue struggling when we can merge under a white chancellor (more diversity) and solve all our problems? Eliminate the struggle. Are we addicted to struggle (defined as the achievements we are pursuing)? Our rise in the state NC (Greensboro) is seen as competition the (also state owned) PWI's

We don't own their university; we are not a majority; the government is majority white, we are a microcosm of a white world. FIND YOURSELF AND BE THAT! You are in a world that sees our growth as competition, a threat. How much do we have in common? Trump, Biden both documented racist, one a nine-time convicted criminal. What do they have in common? A White Mind! Ask the family members of the Rwanda genocide if the leaders had a white or black mind. It was a black minds that killed nearly one million people. When the Japanese invaded and killed the Chinese what kind of mind did they have? The child soldiers in Africa, their leadership had an African mind. The statement shows how racist and lost you are 🤣🤣🤣🤣 The young black boys in Chicago that gun each other down everyday have a black mind. Same for Memphis, St Louis, Atlanta, Greensboro...could go on and on but you get the point. You are in a world that is leaving you by and you can't accept it, your antiquated thinking will keep your mind in bondage seeing ghost that aren't there. I get it, you just like my uncle are a lot older and went through a lot however i refuse to let that thinking handicap myself and the next generation. Even though the older generation is trying their hardset to make another generation of racist and "it's somebody else fault" folks. You won't change which is fine, but the most important color in this world is green. Growth is painful and uncomfortable and not everyone is willing to.

The state cares about saving money, if one of the universities fold they do not care because the can merge and save money versus paying for two of everything. Money is the color that matters most in this world not race.

You are in a world that sees our growth as competition, a threat. How much do we have in common? Is this a serious response? You tried this nonsense earlier in the thread. Does this tactic work in your world? You label, divide, put-down, and then complain? bseballaggie, I have news for you...you are the injustice you claim to be against. You've made your racism very clear. You've made your very illogical points to show how you feel about this topic, but while your argument collapses you gotta try to take folks down with you? Maybe you see yourself as a "sharecropper" in this world, but don't put that on Aggie2039 or anyone else. How any times in this thread have you demanded something of someone? To tell them to "FIND YOURSELF AND BE THAT" and "I see you" and such. During this entire conversation I couldn't help but feel two things. 1. I feel sorry for you. 2. I love you even more. 1. I feel sorry for you because it must be a scary and lonely place you are in. To be 'anti-' everything, and constantly fearing the world coming at you with diverse colored minds and nefarious schemes. You are building a fort one disillusioned brick at a time and see yourself as some standard-bearer at a racial Alamo. You are building up fears and defenses for an attack that's never going to come. If you want to be the victimized sharecropper that is always beaten down by this racist white-minded world, that's your choice, but move over to the slow lane. The rest of the world needs to get on with their day and move this school forward. 2. I love you more. It's true. Your way of thinking is not organically evolved logic. This is something you have been taught, or likely sold. There's good money to be made in peddling hate. You should go do something uncomfortable. Something outside your normal pattern. Turn off the media, put down the books, and get in touch with people and nature again. I say this to you out of love. A mind and a heart and an Aggie: In the end, that is all we are. Why damage the reputation of any of those things? Let's grow those things together. I am very new to the world of A&T. I love reading these old messages from some of y'all who have seen the school change over the years, and even decades. My small town (Pennsylvania) mayor of 30 years has the elementary school named after him. The man is 90 years old and in the Aggie HOF (boxing). He was mayor of a small VERY white town in PA for 30 years. All those white minds just kept voting in that Aggie.

Thank you all, I will take it back to my White minds (they are mine I pay them) and discuss your responses and how to train our future black male leaders.

Brother, you left the university first. You opined on my quote with Kaepernick and concluding that assimilation is my definition of diversity. 2039 is providing evidence that we (black folks) are just as guilty as other folks when it comes to allowing the spirit of the enemy to guide us. At what point do we make the individual choice to be renewed and transformed?

Again I do not care about the past. .... ... Ask the family members of the Rwanda genocide if the leaders had a white or black mind. It was a black minds that killed nearly one million people.

Uh oh. Aggie2039 is starting to get intellectually frustrated again. That's when he usually takes his ball and storms off.
