Billionaire Robert Smith’s $40 Million Morehouse Pledge Good News About Black Men There’s so much bad news about African American Men, or “black” men, that this vlogger could not let Robert Smith’s $40 million contribution to Morehouse graduates go uncelebrated.

The media should start reflecting that. Stay tuned.
