Your people, our people, are in a state of deepening crisis. It is not that
the solution was not arrived at at 2pm... I suspect the sheer simplicity took
most by surprise.
In 1994 I was taking a physics class. It was advanced. I had solved a couple of
problems from the back of the chapters for the first time since form three so I
was enjoying physics. As destiny would have it, another black fella was taking the
class with me. He was a Prince Hall Mason. We spent many evenings discussing
physics and I think we were both very excited each time we understood something. I
certainly made no pretenses to being smarter than he was.
Final Exam, I do well. I go to the physics office and get my paipr. I do very
well. Summer is about to begin. Then I see it. And so do millions of others who
must today still wonder. The Zero. I looked closer and who got a zero was.. HIM.
Odo. Zero out of one hundred. In physics this is impossible. What made it more
suspicious is that I know that he didn't even go in to get his paper. He dropped
out, and when I saw him last, he was back in the SUNY system elsewhere, finishing
up. It is simply not possible to get a zero. What do I think and what do I know?
i. There was an incident of cheating that was attributed to the black system or "way". I myself was indignant that if the perpetrators were caught they deserved
the price to be paid for such stupidity. I didn't realize people cheated here too.
The grad students knew about it.
ii. Electrical Engineering was hiding major discoveries in the field of space
administration, quite literarilly. I suspect that after Dr. D's passing it became
apparent to all wizards that, however it came to be, i was tasked with... demonstrating the glorious ideas of the afro centric tesla society.
iii. I was the underground head of the student union at one university. one day
a friend of ours took a plane into the skies and made a coup de tat. because we did not move fast enough, we all went underground to avoid abacha's wrath... martin luther...
