NPR s Michel Martin speaks with Danielle Douglas-Gabriel of The Washington Post about Maryland s settlement of a lawsuit related to underfunding of the state s HBCUs. Transcript MICHEL MARTIN, HOST: It s been 15 years since a group of alumni from Maryland s historically Black colleges and universities sued the state over inequality in public higher education. Their lawsuit argued that the state had underfunded its four HBCUs and permitted traditionally white institutions to replicate programs pioneered and offered by HBCUs. After a series of legal fits and starts, including a stall in negotiations with the state, last week, Maryland finalized a $577 million settlement to resolve the issue. The money will be paid out over a decade and used to support scholarships, faculty recruitment and expand academic programs and marketing.
