I was in class a few days ago and some of the african american schools made statements about schools in philadelphia that are exclusively for african americans whites have no right to be addmitted. When I made a statement about discrimination then everyone did not understand everyone was confused. Do not cry about interacial schools that african americans want to keep open to allow segregation. This is obsurd. Please note these are words of A GROUP of african american girls in my university class.

We put so much focus into the White Supremacist on the Right but completely ignore all the White Supremacist that are on the Left.

The Last thing that Mrs. Jones said regarding her Daughter’s access to education was quite profound! InshaAllah the society as a whole can one day collectively share that mindset!

[charlesbanks]

The truth hurts when some people hear it

[orkahn]

Nikole-Hanna Jones is brilliant in the way she handles-addresses these parents who don’t realize they benefited from white privilege.

[jahmeheru]

The questions from the audience were awesome!

[lauriee.]

Friends. This video has received less than 1, 000 views. Right now as I type it is exactly at 532. This is such powerful information that we all need to hear if we want to make a difference in our children and our countries future. The change we need isn't going to happen today (I do unfortunately believe that). It is going to be the change brought on by our youth. What the change looks like will depend entirely on their education and experience. Please watch and then share.

She should have been a nomination for the Secretary of Education.

[p.w.]

Thank you for shedding light on this 'cancer' in our society! Very knowledgeable and insightful - truly this is scholarly work! The question, however, is how do we effect lasting change so all our kids get the education they deserve?

[marshaboody]

Resegregation is a great idea.That way no one will be slowed in their learning.

[nadademamaditas]

It's kind of ironic that she just joined Howard university...

[CARIB]

I really appreciate Nikole's work, thanks fro sharing!

Whites are segregating themselves from a culture, not a skin color.

Black culture embraces thuggery, promotes promiscuity and perpetuates a victim mindset that blames whites for all the problems in the black and Latino communities.

Who wouldn't want to distance themselves from such a corrosive influence?

[bertramdavis]

The push for integration in the 50 and 60 shouldn't have never happen, we should have pushed for equal education resources and left the white people alone.

[dougwilliams]

Speaking of reframing the conversation, were there no Black people in the audience to ask one or both of those questions?

[dwightwilliams]

It's our choice what places we goto so we will never know the mindset of the people around you until we are into everyday normal living. Yes we can. Totally separate from all others, but like our churches that children was killed, schools are being run by w/s that have problems with police in schools.

[froggybug]

I’m here to represent an organization but I’ve never heard of redlining……🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️ do better.

[tedsimpkins]

I was in 6th grade when they desegregated schools. Biggest mistake ever. After that I hated going to school. It was like going to the jungle every day and having to fight for your life.
