Anime in Our Dorms

Megan Thee Stallion's Instagram

Let’s talk about anime. Why? How many people do you know that have anime posters in their dorm? How many people do you know on campus that have a favorite anime? What’s your favorite anime? If you don’t watch it, why don’t you watch it? 

Megan Thee Stallion started wearing her cosplays and all your favorite rappers started calling it cool and now every Black person you know is supposed to watch an anime and get into it. Here’s the thing though…this wasn’t always cool for Black people, but Black people have always been into anime. We are always looking into what the rest of the world is doing because the US tends to make us feel boxed in. And being boxed in by a country that changes its mind by the day whether it likes you or not is awful. Anime comes in many forms but the ones that are the most popular tend to have a protagonist who is the “chosen one” or has emerged from a terrible backstory, and they are sent on a quest to save the day or avenge their oppressor. Can you see why Black folks might be interested in such a story? 

The idea that someone has to go through literal hell to get the righteousness they deserve is extremely cathartic. Long story short, Tanjiro sets out on a mission to heal his now demon sister and become a demon slayer to protect everyone from the pain he’s endured. 

An independent child off to save the day with a noble purpose, that’s already amazing, but the real seller are the incredible fight scenes. A lot of people get into anime for the fight scenes, because they are like no other. Sword choreography, incredible weapons you’ve never seen before, martial arts, magic powers, or anything else you could imagine. One of the most popular anime in the world is just about a pirate, his gang and his goal of becoming king of the pirates. Why do people love this anime? The main character has stretching powers, which creates some of the most unique and incredible fight scenes you’ve ever seen. 

Why do young Black people cling to these kinds of stories and fight scenes? It’s an expression. If you’ve had a hard day, which could mean, not passing a test, getting passed over for a job or an opportunity, experiencing a micro or macro aggression, being misunderstood by your parents, or facing an unrelenting political climate. Once a day, you can put on your favorite anime and watch a protagonist work on their craft, become great and defeat their enemy in a flourish of moves that could leave you breathless. And for those 30 minutes or 2 hours, if you’ve decided to binge for a while, you feel just as triumphant as that protagonist. You also work hard, you are also honing your craft and one day you will be great, proving to yourself and the ones who doubted you that they were wrong. Even though that’s not the point. When you become great, it’s you becoming great in your own eyes. 

“Demon Slayer”by Koyoharu Gotouge

This is where anime shines. There is always another enemy but the anime about the pirates reminds you that your friends believing in your dreams is the best kind of treasure. You may want revenge but Demon Slayer reminds you that there is no greater love than family. Jujutsu Kaisen reminds you that the light you have inside is stronger than the darkness, and it requires discipline to maintain it. One Punch Man is a reminder, not to take life so seriously because you will have to move forward, past those who wish you harm. My Hero Academia reminds you that talent is never enough, you must work hard and constantly improve. That is to “Live Ultra!” And my favorite, HunterxHunter reminds you that even though your parents may not have treated you kindly along your journey you will find those who will. 

Epic fight scenes, cool characters, and incredible lessons make for a genre young Black people have become enamored with. And trust me, there are plenty more than the ones I’ve just named. If you’re feeling low, I suggest you check one out. And for all you old heads, most of them have versions that are in English. Sit with your young person, you might find something you like.

Alabama State Receives Reduced NCAA Infractions Ruling, Will Serve Three Years of Probation

HBCU ORIGINAL

Published

2 weeks ago

on

July 28, 2026

By

Alabama State University’s long-running NCAA infractions case ended with a reduced classification after the NCAA Division I Committee on Infractions ruled the matter as a Level I Mitigated case instead of the more severe aggravated designation.

The decision carries the minimum financial penalty allowed for a Level I violation: a $30,000 fine plus one percent of the football program’s budget, along with three years of probation. University officials said they accept the ruling and will not file an appeal, though they remain convinced the case never warranted one of the NCAA’s highest classifications.

“This confirms what we have maintained from the outset — this case was improperly elevated,” Alabama State representative Dr. Jason Cable said. “The underlying conduct, tied to the former Sports Information Director and head coach, simply does not justify placement among the most severe cases in collegiate athletics.”

The case centered on the alteration of competition statistics for one student-athlete during the 2019 football season. Alabama State acknowledged that a former sports information director changed the athlete’s statistics on the school’s athletics website, allegedly at the direction of the former head football coach.

However, after a contested hearing, the NCAA Committee on Infractions determined there was not enough evidence to hold the former coach personally responsible for directing the changes. Alabama State said its acceptance of responsibility was based solely on the actions of its employee and not on any finding against the former coach.

University officials also emphasized that the NCAA found no lack of institutional control or failure to monitor within the athletics department.

Despite the reduced classification, Alabama State President Dr. Quinton T. Ross Jr. questioned the consistency of the NCAA’s enforcement process.

“While today’s decision is a downgrade from the Level I aggravated classification, we still believe that the scope of the penalty does not reflect the university’s involvement, or lack thereof, in this matter,” Ross said.

Ross pointed to what he called a significant disparity between Alabama State’s penalties and those issued to the University of Arizona. According to the university, Arizona, which certified the student-athlete’s eligibility and benefited competitively, received a Level III violation and a $500 fine, while Alabama State was assessed a Level I violation despite not certifying the player’s eligibility or receiving a competitive advantage.

“We believe the standards should be applied consistently across all institutions,” Ross said. “This case underscores the importance of fairness and accountability throughout the NCAA governance process.”

Ross also credited Vice President of Intercollegiate Athletics and General Counsel Kenneth Thomas for helping secure a reduction in what could have been more severe sanctions.

To address the issues identified during the investigation, Alabama State said it has already implemented several compliance measures, including revised statistical reporting procedures, expanded auditing practices, enhanced postgame reviews, and additional NCAA compliance education for athletics staff.

The university said those measures will remain in place throughout its probationary period.

With the case now officially resolved, Alabama State plans to move forward without an appeal.

“The institution is ready to begin its probationary period, fulfill all associated obligations, and direct its full energy to its student-athletes, its programs, and its future,” the university said.

Tuskegee University Introduces New Student Policies Focused on Professionalism and Career Readiness

HBCU ORIGINAL

Published

3 weeks ago

on

July 26, 2026

By

TUSKEGEE, Ala. Tuskegee University is introducing new student policies focused on professionalism, academic success, and career readiness as the university prepares to welcome its largest incoming class in 32 years.

In a message to parents of incoming students, President Dr. Mark A. Brown announced updated expectations covering student attire, classroom attendance, and cellphone use.

Under the new dress code, students will not be permitted to wear bonnets, du rags, bedroom shoes, or revealing clothing in classrooms, the university cafeteria, or during official campus events, including Convocation. Students attending business meetings and other professional events will also be expected to wear business attire with appropriate footwear.

Brown said the goal is to help students prepare for life after graduation, not to limit their college experience.

“The goal here is not meant to restrict students from enjoying the Tuskegee Experience, but to prepare them with a solid foundation for the workforce they will enter once they leave Tuskegee.”

The university is also strengthening its classroom expectations. Cellphones must remain off during class unless an instructor allows their use, and attendance will be monitored more closely to encourage academic success.

As part of its expanded career readiness initiative, students will be expected to complete internships, identify professional certifications related to their career goals, and build a professional resume before graduation. Tuskegee currently offers more than 30 professional certification opportunities at no additional cost.

The new policies have already sparked conversations throughout the HBCU community. Some believe the changes continue the long standing tradition of preparing students for professional careers, while others question whether banning items such as bonnets and du rags reinforces outdated views of professionalism.

Founded in 1881, Tuskegee University has built a legacy of developing leaders in business, education, science, engineering, the military, and public service. University leaders say these updated expectations are intended to strengthen that tradition while helping students transition successfully into the workforce.

As students return to campus this fall, many will be watching to see how the new policies shape the student experience and whether they become a model for other HBCUs across the country.

RALEIGH, N.C. — Shaw University Divinity School is expanding access to theological education with the support of a $1 million grant from Lilly Endowment Inc. The five year grant will help the Divinity School create a statewide network of digital academies designed to bring graduate level theological education directly to churches and ministry leaders throughout North Carolina.

The funding comes through Lilly Endowment’s Thriving Congregations Initiative and will support partnerships with more than 40 congregational associations to establish local digital learning communities. The program will provide church leaders with accessible opportunities for ministry training, leadership development, certificate programs, and congregational renewal.

Through an advanced online learning platform, participants will have access to live instruction, self paced courses, peer discussions, and practical resources while continuing to serve within their local congregations.

Over the next five years, the initiative is expected to engage between 800 and 1,000 church leaders while creating pathways for participants to continue their education through advanced graduate programs at Shaw University Divinity School.

“A localized digital academy approach to accessible theological training will help strengthen congregations as future learning communities,” said Dr. Mark G. Harden, dean of Shaw University Divinity School.

The initiative reflects Shaw’s continued commitment to preparing faith leaders with the knowledge, skills, and resources needed to serve evolving communities while expanding educational opportunities beyond traditional classroom settings.

Church and ministry leaders interested in participating in the program can contact Rev. Dr. Saundra Williams at saundra.williams@shawu.edu.
