WTF. They need to change the password and not give it to the person who posted that. That's certainly not representative of the interactions I've had with them.
Social media and virality isn't the big thing that changed. Wealth inequality, and the downstream effects of neoliberal defunding of basically all public goods, is the big change. A few stakeholders now wield so much power that mass protests on-par with decades past are less of a counterweight.

To be fair, those are the same folk who are quick to say āyou only got in b/c youāre Black!ā So perhaps itās meaningful in that way.
Yup! Sounds like my experience at Howard. I learned so much about the diversity w/i Blackness. Plus I never heard: you only got in b/c your Black. Such an affirming experience.
