@Duke, for real, you get points for having a jStor account. no shade, props. for real y'all, so much good reading there
you do realize that there are Black peeps beyond colleges in the US though? and you do realize that access to internet is/was informal in low income racialized communities right from the beginning? Like peeps congregating in one household with the tech, to use it? It's not that Black peeps were late to the internet, it just wasn't as widely available for poor peeps period, in home.
Look at your own graph, Black students used the internet at school more heavily than white peeps. Why? Dollaz.
Even if Black peeps were complete Luddites initially (which is NOT the case, your own stats indicate that) like this space needs to be some version of Stormfront-lite just cuz you think you were here 'first'?
Sorry, no.
