African-American Boarding Schools -- Laurinburg Institute

Just a bit of FYI...

According to HBCUmoney.com, there are four remaining African-American boarding schools left in the United States.  One is Laurinburg Institute in Scotland County, North Carolina.  Let's use the tuition plans at Laurinburg Institute as an example of what I want to show.

Tuition at Laurinburg Institute is as follows:

Plan A - One annual payment at the beginning of the school year
Entrance Tuition
$10,000.00
Housing
$3,000.00
Food Service
$1,800.00
*Initial Supply Deposit
$200.00
Total Plan A 
$15,000.00

So that means the parents of a child would have to have all $15,000 up front at the beginning of the school year.


Plan B - Two Semi-Annual payments: One at the beginning of each semester
Entrance Tuition
$10,000.00
Housing
$3,000.00
Food Service 
$1,800.00
Carrying Cost  
$1,097.00
*Initial Supply Deposit
$200.00
Total Plan B
$16,097.00

So, this means that the parents of a child would have to come up with $8,048.50 in a lump sum twice a year.

Plan C - Nine monthly payments: Once each school month
Entrance Tuition
$10,000.00
Housing
$3,000.00
Food Service
$1,800.00
Carrying Cost
$1,600.00
*Initial Supply Deposit
$200.00
Total Plan C
$16,600.00

So, this means that the parents of a child would have to come up with $1,844.44 every month.

What parent from the 'hood can afford to pay this kind of tuition money?

 So a school like Laurinburg Institute would be the 'competition' for FDMG.  Further, Laurinburg Institute is already established with consistent donors, established curricula, accreditation, and facilities in place.  Most importantly, look at the tuition plans and the money folks would have to come up with to send their child to a school like Laurinburg Institute.

What kind of tuition would FDMG have to charge in order to sustain it?  What I mean is, how is FDMG going to keep the lights and water on, feed people, have extra-curricular activities, pay staff, supply a library, buy equipment, have insurance to cover itself if someone on campus gets injured, etc.

Oh yeah, that would require having a business plan...which Umar doesn't have.


So to all I have to say to Umar is ...

Baby Mamma Number Three...

Umar Johnson has no right to tell anyone anything about families, children, or education as far as I'm concerned. Why? Because, y'all, Umar has just been "tagged" with Baby Mamma Number Three. I will not do the woman involved the disservice of putting her name out on this blog, but just pay attention to the video  below. This man, who is clearly irresponsible , who is telling you that he needs your donations to create a school for Black boys, although he can't explain where the money is , who tells you he isn't going to show you his plan because y'all too stupid to understand, unless you have a $10,000 check , then he can let you in on the plan, with his tax liens and a pretend relationship to Frederick Douglass, AND who has six degrees , none of which he has shown, who lies about celibacy , who has THREE, count 'em, THREE baby mammas , yet he is unapologetically African , who doesn't respect any man who is not committed to a Black wo

Damnitall to hell!  I was just here, minding my own business, progressing and enjoying my life! BUT... I've sat back and watch more of Umar Johnson with his lies, schemes, scams, disrespect, danger, hypocrisy, usury, foolery, fuckery, and disregard of Black people and I'm beyond sickened of what I'm seeing in this goddamned fool who supposedly has six degrees. Oh my God!  Where do I start? Weakness At this block party, there were people, supposedly the New Black Panther Party, allegedly had assault weapons pointing down at the crowd from a roof of the trap bandos.  From what I understand of the laws of Delaware concerning open-carry weapons, having open-carry assault weapons is illegal.   Thank the heavens that nothing happened.  But, that situation, in and of itself is dangerous, especially with women, children and elders present.  Why have that at a "family" oriented block party?  What was Umar Johnson expecting?  Did he really think he had the rig

Don't Believe the Hype

Take a bit of advice from Public Enemy, please. Don't believe the hype ! What hype am I talking about? The idea the Umar Johnson has actually acquired a building, in my view, is a bunch of hype. Umar Johnson claims the has bought a building, or a set of buildings located at 610 - 611 East 17th Street in Wilmington, DE. Okay So, let's look at the records. Exhibit One is the records of recent sales in New Castle County, Wilmington, DE Exhibit One - Recent real estate sales in New Castle County, Wilmington, DE Let's look at Exhibit Two below where we see that the last purchase of this property was in 2017. Exhibit Two - Record of Property Details including Sale History Please look at Exhibit Three below to see who the owner of record is as of today, which appears to be K12 Management . Exhibit Three -- Record of the current owner of the property The exhibit below shows the crime statistics around the area of the building. Exhibit Four
