Aggies packed Carolina Theatre today to catch the Greensboro premiere party for “Our Blues Make Us Gold,” an #NCAT biopic by From A2B Studios. The event marked the first time the new director’s cut of the doc has been shown.
The film now goes on a summer tour to Durham, CLT & ATL. #AggiesDO
An enthusiastic crowd filled a screening room in a lovely East Greensboro estate Saturday for a screening of “Our Blues Make Us Gold,” the #NCAT doc now streaming on Comcast Xfinity.
If you haven’t seen, go to any of the Xfinity platforms and stream it tonight. It’s a beautiful love letter to A&T.
More reporting -- NBC News:
"A notice of court order violation filed Saturday said [Customs and Border Protection] 'had actual notice of this Court’s order and willfully disobeyed this Court’s order.' It requested an order to return Alawie to Mass. immediately."

How is it possible that a Brown U. professor with a valid visa, specializing in an area in which the U.S. has a pronounced shortage and with no blemishes on her record is deported, against a court order explicitly blocking her expulsion?
Higher ed should be outraged.

#NCAT Chancellor James R. Martin II hosted NC Senate Pres. Pro Tem Phil Berger at the University Farm Monday to discuss A&T agricultural, extension & legislative priorities.
With General Assembly in session, time is at a premium. We appreciate Sen. Berger spending some of his in Aggieland. #HBCU
Bueller? Bueller?
Happy Birthday, Brad!
Where is the fight? What has happened to journalism?

And Senators who invited this by not standing up to reject even one of his nominees just stared at their shoes.
I was there last weekend, and the cashier told me new member cards are up FOUR-FOLD over a year ago. They def attribute it to their diversity position.
THANK YOUR LOCAL COSTCO. They did what far too few seem able to do today - the right thing.
Leah Barlow, Ph.D., assistant professor of liberal studies at N.C. A&T, began her spring Introduction to African American History class with a TikTok video introducing herself and outlining the course.
The video was intended just for her students, but it sparked a phenomenon that became HillmanTok.
Sometimes you have to prioritize yourself. Your mental health and well-being matters!
Join us for "Protecting My Peace" with a great panel including Miles Brown, Marsai Martin and Marcus Scribner along with moderator, alumna Kimberly Jackson. www.ncat.edu/news/2025/02...
Welker, the panel and guests talked about spending philosophy, foreign aid - even the, ahem, “Trump doctrine.” 🙄
But they hardly touched on the fact that what this administration is doing to the federal government is ILLEGAL.
Without that as the starting point, we are no longer a nation of laws.
Meet the Press is apparently now where admin officials can go to filibuster, deflect and avoid with no one laying a glove on them.
Welker’s interest seems to be only getting through a set of question, not actually uncovering facts or truth.
That Waltz interview was absolute garbage.
Thanks for your outstanding leadership, Gov. Pritzker!
God bless you.
If I never see/hear/read anything else about Justin Baldoni or Blake Lively, it won’t make up for the pointless tidal wave of uninteresting, repetitive BS we’ve all endured for what seems like 30 years.
Where is #AFSCME? Are we just standing by while DOE officials are fired for attending work-assigned trainings?
Is no one going to fight this madness?
Anyone else at COSTCO? At mine, the new membership card line is far out the door.
Appearances suggest COSTCO’s stand for DEIB in its workforce and customer base are notably energizing its business.
These families, couples and individuals could shop anywhere.
They choose COSTCO.
65 years ago, 4 freshmen teens from North Carolina A&T sat down at a whites-only lunch counter and refused to leave.
That launched a sit-in movement led by Southern Black youth. It broke the back of segregation in restaurants and other public services across the South.
Happy Black History Month 🔥
Please report in. I’m watching the Godfather.

Rescue teams in dinghies have been combing the Potomac.
NTSB is there en masse.
The Blackhawk appears to fly directly into the jet with no effort to divert.
It unavoidably brings to mind the second jet flying into Tower II.
Dozens and dozens of emergency vehicles line the Potomac
Capacity on the jet: 50 to 100.
Helicopter capacity: Up to 15.
American Airlines regional jet (capacity ~60) and Blackhawk helicopter collide, and both go down in the Potomac.
Rescue/recovery efforts in hyperdrive but hobbled by lack of ice breaker in the vicinity.
