I think my dear friend and brother, Dr. Cornel West, has exhausted his intellectual genius at Harvard. It is clear to me he doesn't need Harvard, Harvard needs him. His situation is a metaphor of North American Africans in the USA. From the beginning of our sojourn in the American slave system, we didn't need America, America needed us.
And we have been disrespected at every turn, every nano second.
Brother West, forget Harvard, let's establish the first black radical university in the Americas and the world. We have the talent and a 1.4 trillion dollar annual spending as a people. We can resurrect Timbuktu University in the West. Let's do for self. The time has come for you to transcend the academic nothingness of Americana. Your light shines brighter. Your shadow cannot stand beside you, thus it is time to distance yourself from the shadow!
