HBCUs have a unique history of overcoming systemic challenges and providing an unequalled return on investment.
The best way the #BuildBackBetter Act can invest in higher education is to invest in #HBCUs.
ALT Meme Text: The incredible success of HBCUs has been achieved despite over a century of systemic underfunding at both the state and federal levels.

The urgency and need for Congress to #DoublePell is clear. It would help cover much more of the costs of attendance at public four-year universities and open the door to opportunity to millions of low-income students. Take action at doublepell.org

Today we celebrate the anniversary of the Morrill Act of 1890, which established public land-grant #HBCUs for Black students to have access to #highered. 1890s continue blaze a trail of academic excellence, providing affordable higher ed opportunities for underserved communities.
