Poor black kid with high grades & full ride to 20 top colleges get's shat on by Fox news

A teen accepted to 20 colleges offering him full financial aid wants journalists at a Fox affiliate to apologize for calling his decision to apply to the schools "obnoxious."

An anchor and contributor on Fox 5 in Washington, D.C., criticized Micheal Brown's decision to apply to 20 colleges in a segment airing April 3.

Co-anchor Holly Morris and contributor Sarah Fraser called applying to that amount of schools "ridiculous."

"It's a little ridiculous that this kid applied to 20 taking away a spot and basically waitlisting another kid," Fraser said on the show.

"I think it's a little obnoxious because you can only go to one," Morris commented. “You can only take one full ride and you are taking a spot from someone else who worked really hard.”

Two days later, Micheal said he had a "respectful" interview with Morris, but he will not allow the segment to air until the station issues a public apology. "Where's the #humandecency?" he tweeted.

Micheal's mother Berthinia Rutledge-Brown told USA TODAY that Morris never apologized and instead said "I didn't mean to offend you." They didn't receive an apology from the station either, she said. Fox 5 did not immediately return a request for comment from USA TODAY.


Micheal, a black student who grew up in a poor area of Houston, defied odds with a 4.68 GPA at Lamar High School. Last week, a widely-shared video showed his enthusiastic reaction to being accepted into his dream school: Stanford University. He got a full ride. Spoiler: There was jumping. There was screaming. It was pure joy for all involved — including his mom.


It didn't stop there. Brown was accepted into and received full financial aid for 19 other colleges, including more Ivy League schools: Harvard University, Yale University, University of Pennsylvania, Princeton University, Northwestern University, Georgetown University, Vanderbilt University, Johns Hopkins University, Pomona College, Claremont McKenna College, Williams College, University of Texas-Austin, University of California-Berkeley, Amherst, University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, Tulane University, University of Michigan, UC-Davis and UC-Irvine.

Rutledge-Brown said her son is currently deciding between Georgetown, Stanford, Harvard and Yale. He plans to announce his decision April 30.

I've been a poor white kid, as in often homeless and hungry, and got near perfect grades. Nobody offered me a full ride to any college, even a community college. Not enough diversity points I guess.

The soft bigotry of low expectations.

ya

Yeah.

Are you trying to imply that homelessness among white people in America is uncommon? Because they are literally the second most common homeless demographic. Hell they're within 4% of African-Americans nationally. I'd go so far as to wager if you leave Los Angeles, DC, Chicago, and Detroit out of the mix they probably are the majority.

If they sterilised all subhumans, there would be no possibility to offend them by speaking the truth.

Here in London ON all the homeless are middle-aged to elderly white men. We have a godawful meth problem that is only worsened by the affirmative action money poured into shit like methadone clinics (which is just free meth and as far as I'm aware only reinforces the problem)

anything but discuss trump preparing to fuck our ass with the TPP and FOSTA lol

I think it can be useful, potentially, to get people off the bad shit. But they've gotta want it, which most don't.

I find that a little hard to believe, post transcripts or it didn't happen. Also you have to show a little initiative for schools to give you full rides, very few public schools will actually go out of their way to show off their more intelligent students to colleges.

Did you take the national AP exams? Those get you REALLY noticed since colleges around the states pay close attention to them especially if you get a perfect score or at least two decent scores in two different areas.

It's pretty typical and they act like colleges don't take people in en masse. They don't care how many students they can fit in as long as someone can fork over the cash.

Once you take college courses in areas of math and science you start to realize how badly prepared most students are, it doesn't matter what school they came from. Check out dropout stats for the harder areas of study to give you a good idea of how difficult and unprepared students are.

A lot of it also has to do with shitty professors who expect you to know concepts and math techniques that you haven't even been shown yet by a professional. Lack of actual hands-on training that could help students connect theories and such. In fact I think it would be way more useful for colleges to implement a system where it's half studying and half working at a company that has to do with their field of choice. It's ridiculous how much I hear that students learn A LOT more at their internships than they ever do at school.

Yeah right, like I'd post personally identifying info. I took AP classes and all that. Main problem was that I moved around to many different schools, easily 2 or 3 in a single year because my dad was trying to avoid the law. Also that I was white. There are plenty of scholarships for poor black kids, none that I know of for poor white kids. I dropped out in the last few months of my senior year because I found out the administration had fucked me and expected me to stay for an additional year or two, which also included going to summer courses because they didn't recognize all the credits I'd earned at other schools, despite telling me otherwise when I came to their school. But I aced, as in literally got perfect scores, on my GED. I mailed a copy to the principal of the school that fucked me over.

C'mon nigga try harder and it sounds like you have you're father to blame for that, even if the school did attempt to fuck you over you could have taken advantage of it and did the national AP exams, Taking those courses don't really matter what matters is the opportunity to take those national exams to show yourself off, if you really were smart you should have realized that.
Sounds like you're black-pilling yourself, pun intended. There are plenty of doors to knock on, don't expect everything to fall on your lap. Take it from someone who learned that the hard way, especially if you dropped out and earned your GED instead of a Highschool Diploma. No college will actively search out someone who passed their GED exam, unless they are a certified genius.

I'm not blackpilled and I've done pretty well for myself since then. All the same, the fact remains that there are plenty of avenues for poor non-white fucks to get scholarships, and very few for whites. Except of course merit based ones which whites and Asians dominate by some coincidence.

Maybe it has to do with initiative, I guess you could call that "limiting opportunities for someone of a different race." You can blame the "victim complex" of today's youth, something that was predominant in blacks and other people of color and has now overtaken whites. It's easy to give up without even trying and blame someone else for their problems after all.

Some justly have a victim complex but those are few and far between.

It's just for whites in white countries to think there's something wrong with a system that advantages others over them, when it was their own ancestors that built those countries. That's a fucked up system. I agree as far as it's no use blaming others, blaming this person or that person. Even if you're right, it gets you nowhere, you're still just as fucked as you were before. But let's at least recognize that some people, more than others, are responsible for the situation today, and they deserve retribution.

The irony of that is that it's only fucked up if it's happening to you or what you consider to be "your people", at the same time I realize how easy it is for me or you for that matter to say "take initiative" or "give retribution." In the end it's up to the individual to wallow in self-pity or make something of themselves.
Others? You mean your own countrymen? As far a source I can see that black kid is a citizen, like it or not.
I beg to differ, there are plenty of people in history who didn't wallow in self-pity and either made a name for themselves or made a living for themselves.
And who are those people exactly? A lot of people are responsible for their own situations and just jump on the pity-wagon, shall I remind you BLM movement? The organization that tried to make martyrs out of actual criminals?

That's exactly my point. Our own country's leadership is working against us, but even still we can succeed. I don't know where you're getting all this self-pitying garbage.

No one gave this poor black child a free ride.

Niggers don't belong in schools. They belong in Africa.

This portion seemed like black-pilling and self-pitying. Seems we are on the same page though.

The point was that even if you recognize everything is fucked and aligned against you, there's still hope. But the change starts with you.

ABLOO HOO

fuck that niglet.

Dumb moms with Dumb Kids are so mad.

Success comes natural to you, it's unimpressive.

Anybody got that picture of a nigger sitting back in his chair with a blank piece of paper while all the other students are stressing over a test, and there is the caption "Man I love affirmative action"
That would sum up the nigger in the OP.

Thanks user, that's actually inspiring.

How much you wanna be the groid got graded on a different scale than everybody else? 70% for a C for normal students, 70% for an A for the groid.

Same, but I used a credit to get a bachelors in CS. Despite looking at thousands of places, most in my part of the state, didn't get a single job.

It's now almost a decade after uni, and I mostly make my money by buying broken computers at police auctions, fixing them up, and selling on ebay. It's been more than one time that I ate nothing or just bread for weeks straight, trying to keep up payments on the apartment.

Sorry for the rant, just had to get that off my chest.

Hey man, shit is aligned against us but we've got what it takes. Don't give up, my friend. Never give up, even if shit seems bleak. We owe that much at least to our ancestors who endured plague, war, ice ages, and everything else. Not to mention doing what we can for our descendants.

THIS.
it's the saddest thing in the world. you're a good person and you're in your own country with your own people and your own people choose everyone but you over and over again. it's a deep and hurtful betrayal.

Therein lies the problem. it's not our own people doing the choosing.

I'm quite confused by this image. WTF is AP/IB GPA and how is it and Honors GPA different from a Standard GPA?

Advanced degrees. Pretty sure they add an extra point so instead of the max being a 4.0 it's a 5.0, same with honors- so the grading is more stringent on what letter/X.0 you get for your % grade, that is all.

Was wondering about this myself, was going to search for a video to confirm if this "4.7 prodigy" eeked ebonics or not as that tends to be the giveaway.
Unfortunately they (((coincidentally)))y share the exact same name as a "Mike Brown" who gotgudded a few years ago after robbing a convenience store and the nog community starting the traditional chimpout as a result which means I don't feel like searching for another video.
