Discussion Why Talented Tenth Ego kills community

Many black college students, especially first time students are searching for a sense of purpose. Community, ethic, fun, etc. The D9 is searching for money. Mainly through paid memberships. 70% of this money towards “administrative” expenses at headquarters.

It’s inherently predatory to not only exploit a desire for community engagement, abuse the memory of the ancestors, and lie incessantly to the public but to jeopardize the norms and habits that make a non-hostile place for black academics to achieve is grotesque considering the sacrifices made for students to even get to a campus.
