Show up at almost any black family gathering and inevitably the conversation will lead to a debate over which historically black college or university (HBCU) is best! What school has the best football team? Which marching band stands out? Which has the most students and strong legacy? What school has gone or is going under? There is immense pride among HBCU graduates. But, what about black students who attend a predominately white institution or PWI? How does their experience differ? And which option is better for black students today? Guests Mackenzie Moody, a 2023 graduate of Hampton University, Markius Thomas, a 2025 graduate of Virginia Tech, and Lakeisha Mayes, Director of School Counseling at Booker T. Washington High School in Norfolk share their perspectives. A fascinating conversation on this week's Another View, which was produced by our wonderfully talented summer intern India' Ray Davis, who is attending Hampton University. This, and all Another View Programs can be heard on demand on the show's program page.
