A well written article; however, as he claims to have attended the university, I expected him to provide a more nuanced description of Howard’s homecoming and its relationship to the community. The change in the demographics in the community surrounding the school leads me to think there will not be much drama.

Fair and insightful article. Not sure why Howard Alum cares about security and policing in a “more secure city” we love. Unlike other locations across the nation, Washington DC belongs to the people. We love safety over high egg prices.

As Howard University prepares to celebrate its 101st Homecoming, the usual fanfare the bands, alumni reunions, festive parades is being shadowed by deeper currents of tension and concern. Two interlinked dynamics stand out: economic unease that is pinching budgets and expectations, and an intensified federal law enforcement presence in Washington, D.C., which many see as affecting the atmosphere, security, and the very feel of what should be a joyous weekend.Excellent article Mr.Williams

Excellent article and thoroughly well written sir! It’s unfortunate that this is a topic that even has to be covered let alone acknowledged but these are the times we’re in. Just nice to know we have voices likes yours to cut through the noise of the normal conservative apologists rhetoric!
