Dr. Umar’s School Ready to Open?

My thing is that this is a huge undertaking, and I'm pretty sure that Dr. Umar hasn't done it before. May also have not had the type of professional advice that would have been helpful to someone inexperienced in this field. Because of this, there are any number of ways that things could have gone wrong, and the project delayed. He also may have made mistakes along the way. But to just jump to the conclusion that he was a crook is to be uncharitable. Especially when he seems sincere with his pro-blacknesss.

None of those excuses really fly. He was on Lord Jamar's podcast years ago getting pissed at him, yelling about his resume, saying he has plenty of friends with experience in the field already helping him. Lord Jamar tried to link him with his FIL who had started and grew his own school. Umar basically said he doesn't care what his FIL has done and has no interest in speaking to him.

Again, I'm not saying he did nothing meriting criticism; I'm saying that people were too quick to make the crook charge, in particular.

Let's clear up some of what he's done that merits criticism.

  • Refused help from people that have made their own schools, and disrespected those that tried to help him
  • Repeatedly been dishonest/lied about his progress on opening the school
  • Refused to do a smaller opening to help some students with the money and resources he currently had available (even though it was an option)
  • Hasn't taught a single student but has collected over $1,000,000 and had 12 years to do it
Now that I think about it, it looks like all people did was help him flip an investment property. Guy bought and renovated an entire school without putting any of his own money up. It'll eventually go under, and he'll sell a building with new plumbing and a new HVAC system. All profit.

Jay Morrison did the same thing collected 13-15 million bought only 3 properties that we know

A complex for him and his ppl to kick it ( which he sold recently)
Land and a house for himself and now the fund is basically no more

I never learned too much about him. Saw some clips and videos of him doing property stuff, but didn't know what happened to him. Figured he just fell out of my algorithm.

Most of the money he raised went to his pocket as fund management fees I think he was charging the fund like a crazy fee

Basically did not know what he was doing so he didn’t do shit but make sure he got a crib and some and collected management fees until the funds dwindled to nothing


Last I checked he was preaching and trying to make a come back lol

Damn, guess that's why i don't see him now, haha. Given how things are going with Umar a comeback might be possible.

Ok.. but  I never said schools for black children didn't exist  OR that anyone should donate to Umar.

Again im not a supporter that rides for him. I simply called out people talking out of both sides of their mouths in this thread.

The money is gone either way. Hoping he does the right thing with it and stands by what he says isn't hurting anyone. 🤷🏿‍♂️
