I’m fine with this as long as the message is “you are not inferior because you’re black, you won’t get special advantages because you’re black, you can do and be anything you want and white people are not the determination of your success or failure.So, work hard ,respect others and go live your dreams”. Teach them that and I’m in.

I'm pretty sure that's considered racist, Colonizer.

Wait! Catahoula® and spooneye® said this was fake news.

What does SNOPES say? There's a dark-skinned thumb on the letter that is obviously black thumb - that's a slam dunk indication this is a fake.



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Where did I say it was fake news?


Apr 25, 2022, 3:19 PM

I asked if there was a version that we could actually read instead of the pixelated ####### that was originally posted.

I am confident, however, this isn't a version you can read, so I'll ask someone else: The OP said it was an invitation only for black students. Can someone help me find that in the letter?

EDIT: Ah, I see that was made clear in a separate letter. Let's learn to communicate, Midlands and NC.

Oh, sorry I missed the word pixelated that you did not type "Is there a version we can actually read?"

Plus, it's not pixelated. The limitation to AAs, Hispanics, and mixed is in the original post.

But I have signed up for a Communications class to improve.
