My posts initially pertained to only the above statement. If I am understanding and reading this statement correctly, then it states that we should choose an institution of education that does not consist of mostly Blacks (an HBCU) because it is not reflective of the world. My posts were initially stating how I do not believe that there is a disadvantage by not attending a predominantly white school (HBCU) nor is there an advantage from attending a predominately white school.
But outside of choosing an education, job, church, neighborhood, or something else that is just a small portion of your day/life, I definitely agree with the statement you made about people needing to go outside of their racial comfort zone and outside of their niche at some point in their lives. That could not be anymore true.
But again my post were only directed to your comments about needing to be "EDUCATED in an environment that more closely resembles the world in which we will have to work in (which isn't predominently black)."
