The Whole Delivery

For about four months, Cable News Network has been marketing “Black in America” about as hard as Warner Brothers did “The Dark Knight” and Nike is doing the same with the U.S. men’s basketball squad. As the days abated towards tonight’s premiere (the second part of a three part series beginning with the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King’s assaination), the commercials became more omnipresent than political campaign ads, social activists group TV time, and those really annoying Head-ON, Active-ON spots.

Ceiling collapses, dilapidated walls, and obsolete conditions, some of Boston University's brownstones can be summed up in one word: Inadequate. In this investigative report from Joshua Clark and Andrew Jones, there is no sugar coating here. The story tells itself and makes you truly wonder the prerogatives of both the Office of Housing and Facilities Management when you see this. Note: This is not a slam piece on Housing or B&G.
