Undergraduate becoming a Africologist ..is very inspiring listening to these young students..& why becoming a Africologist is so important to them..the world I grew up in as many others ..could not even dream of such a dept thanks to Dr.Molefi K. Asante..altho Black studies was becoming a part of many universities & collages of the late 60's & early 70's..which of late has been a push esp by the trumps former president administration to abolish them..but given the backlash of C.R.T their is still much work to be done...

Do you mean abolish the Black Studies or the black institutions? I don't' think the Trump was trying to abolish the black colleges. If I remember he was trying to curry some favor with them, as far as the funding, and as part of his vague "Platinum plan" which Ice Cube claimed had some favorable aspects. That being said, I don't think they will be able to abolish black studies. Pare it down or fold into some other department? Maybe in some paces, but they can't really totally eliminate - too much pushback.

He (trump) made a connections in one of his speeches saying Black Lives Matters & Black studies was dangerous ;also wanted to ban Chicano studies-in Western states
