Howard University students tend to be well-off compared to most blacks. They are the black elite. Yet they often act like people in Africa.<\/p>\n
How come when Oriental university students riot in Japan, Korea and Hong Kong, they don’t commit this kind of vicious and senseless violence? <\/p>\n
Does rap music attract a different type of person? Different from the type who would go to a classical music concert? I think so. It makes sense that a civilized society would want to stigmatize rap and encourage classical music. <\/p>\n
One of the things I love about the classic white English is that they know how to wait in line without rioting and beating each other up. Over the past 30 years, however, lower class whites in England have increasingly acted like blacks with their rioting and senseless criminal violence. <\/p>\n
From the Washington Post<\/a>:<\/p>\n There will be a major change to Howard University\u2019s homecoming this year. Yardfest, an annual staple highlighted by a concert that has featured many of hip-hop\u2019s biggest names, will not include live musical performances. In their place will be sets by celebrity DJs Biz Markie, DJ Quicksilva and DJ Drama. A separate hip-hop concert featuring rappers Dom Kennedy, Fabolous and others will be held at the D.C. Armory the next day, Oct. 18.<\/p>\n This comes a year after Yardfest made headlines when crowd-control issues resulted in nine injuries \u2014 including to two police officers \u2014 when concertgoers who were unable to get in rushed the gates.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was the university\u2019s decision to make sure what happened last year didn\u2019t happen again and that we aren\u2019t branded in that negative light,\u201d said Zenani Greenwell, this year\u2019s homecoming coordinator.<\/p>\n Although Yardfest had historically been a free event, the school charged $5 for admission to the 2013 festival. The fee was small, but the move displeased many alumni and members of the student body. The Yardfest concert had attained legendary status both in the District and in the wider hip-hop universe, over the years hosting performances by the likes of Jay Z, Kanye West, Notorious B.I.G. and many more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Howard University students tend to be well-off compared to most blacks.
