šŸ“°The most disgraceful cover-up in American history. Thanks CLEMSON UNIVERSITY šŸ…

Growing up in the Clemson community, over the years Iā€™ve personally witnessed several faces that have looked just like my own, calling for change and appearing to say the right things, as they stood before the people with a message of resolve. Meanwhile, many of those same individuals Pretended to represent the better interests of less fortunate, while also offering to be the official voice of those unheard. Unfortunately, these same people have failed to provide enough influence that is capable of inspiring the youth in many of the areas where they have made false commitments to better the lives of the underprivileged.

For decades now, many of these oppressors have been deceptively disguised as community advocates, and have privately misused millions of dollars in funding that have been allocated by powerful people, groups, and organizations. Itā€™s very unfortunate that the majority of those who have disingenuously misled the people have been funded by Organizations that have meant well by their generosity and philanthropy in giving to causes that donors have been made to believe would create a much better day for disadvantaged communities. Nevertheless, despite collecting millions, some of these same individuals have yet to create any meaningful impacts within the communities that they have made promises to improve.

In the process, they have made sure to take full advantage of the platforms that they possess, while many times, exploiting the very people that have blindly placed their trust in these deceitful persons.

Over the past 24 hours, I was merely discouraged after learning that Clemson University had received over $3.4M from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation for the creation of a Black Heritage trail. The Mellon Foundation, is an esteemed foundation that grants funding by seeking to build just communities enriched by meaning and empowered by critical thinking, where ideas can thrive. It is also important to note, that The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation makes grants in four core program areas such as: Arts and Culture, Higher Learning, Humanities in Place, and Public Knowledge.

Truthfully, I wasnā€™t upset about the idea that a trail recognizing the history of those whose stories have gone untold, was being constructed. However, I was furious at the fact that the majority of the citizens in the city of Clemson and neighboring towns such as Seneca, South Carolina, arenā€™t being properly informed as to their true heritage by the educators from Clemson University. This is mainly because the majority of the black population in the Clemson area arenā€™t directly descended from Africa. These people are in fact Aboriginal Americans or Indigenous Americans. Iā€™ve also discovered that most of the residents of Oconee, Pickens, and surrounding counties in South Carolina are Native American Indians that have been unfairly stripped of their true heritages. One of the primary reasons that Clemson University has hidden this very valuable information, is due to the fact the land that the University now resides on, was inhabited by Indigenous Americans long before John C. Calhoun had even thought about Fort Hill Plantation. (Please research Fort Rutledge, which was located on the Clemson campus, prior to the John C. Calhoun era)

Interestingly, many of the local residents of this area are of a light skinned tone, but have foolishly believed that the color of their skin is a result of being fathered by White European slave holders. In very few cases, a small percentage of the people who inhabit these areas were fathered and mixed with slave holders, due to rape and being held captive by slavery. The fact remains, that the number of those who were mixed with their slave holders blood, is minuscule compared to the thousands of citizens who were the original people that possessed these lands hundreds of years before the first European settlement in America.

As was the case of my grandmother, born Nancy Calhoun in 1836, who was the daughter of the 7th Vice President of The United States of America, John C. Calhoun. My grandmother was Cherokee Indian and her mother Martha Liza Lee was raped by John C. Calhoun. Clemson University wrote about my grandmotherā€™s story of being enslaved and even featured her on the cover of a Clemson University publication seen below.ā¬‡ļø

Clemson University continued to proudly promote my grandmotherā€™s story of slavery for decades after her death; yet they left out the truth regarding the very prominent American Vice President that fathered her. They also left out the atrocities that my grandmotherā€™s mom (Martha Liza Lee) faced by being raped and separated from her family.

Professor Rhondda Thomas (Calhoun Lemon Professor of Literature at Clemson University) and others never once mentioned to my family and I, that my grandmother was the daughter of Vice President, John C. Calhoun. This very important information had to be rediscovered and unearthed through countless research that was conducted by The Men Of Color Having Answers Foundation (M.O.C.H.A.) in 2021. My family had no clue of this hidden history that was being withheld at Clemson University. This monumental discovery of a very concealed truth at Clemson University wasnā€™t even disclosed of or mentioned by Clemson University educators. This was despite my organization writing a proposal to the city of Clemson (2020) to name an unnamed bridge in Clemson, South Carolina after the same woman, who would later marry (John Legree) to become Nancy Washington Legree. The Clemson City Council would later unanimously vote in favor of The Legree Resolution in October 2020 and unsurprisingly the bridge was never officially named. Below, The signed Legree Resolution by (previous) Mayor J.C. Cook lll.ā¬‡ļø

The naming of the bridge did not cost the city of Clemson, Clemson University, or Pickens County any money, as it was an innovative idea to add to history and honor a woman who had been previously written about and acknowledged only through her story of slavery at Fort Hill plantation. Itā€™s factual that my grandmotherā€™s biological father was the Vice President of the United States of America, and it was her fatherā€™s land that was used to build Clemson University. Thomas Green Clemson (founder of Clemson University) was not the son of Vice President John C. Calhoun. Thomas Green Clemson, would later marry into the estate of the Calhouns by way of link through my grandmotherā€™s sister, Anna Maria Calhoun, who was also the daughter of John C. Calhoun. One has to wonder, how in the world could this priceless American history be withheld from the people by Clemson University professors? How could Professor Rhondda Thomas and others who are well informed of the truth, still be granted millions of dollars today to oversee a project that is responsible for educating and preserving the past. Yet these same people are responsible for concealing a very vital piece of history that is able to rewrite the true story of America?

A very harsh truth is, that the individuals who have spearheaded and lead missions to tell the stories of the enslaved have received multimillion dollar donations, awards, and grants as a result of telling the obstructions of the enslaved; still they have failed to distribute profits or provide a significant impact to the lives of the descendants who were indeed the burden bearers of Clemson University.

They have sat back and watched oppression of all forms affect the direct descendants of Nancy Washington Legree, hoping that these obstructions would choke and suffocate the life out of ME and my family, so that Clemson University wouldnā€™t have to deal with the truth.

Individuals at Clemson University have also Inhumanly misused endless resources in hopes that the intentional hindrances would remove the one family that has been a thorn in the side of the injustices that have occurred at Clemson University, since itā€™s establishment in 1889.

Please understand that No one at Clemson University or the city of Clemson had any ideas to honor any African Americans back in 2020, whenever my organization wrote the proposal to name an unnamed bridge in the Calhoun community after Nancy Washington Legree.

The truth is, I actually inspired the educated, by my innovative and visionary mind, and these powerful people then begin a journey to search and find ones with ideas to honor those who were enslaved.

Since then, these same people have tirelessly worked hard to stop the official progress of The Men Of Color Having Answers Foundation, due to their lack of discovery of ideas of modernization and advancement for Black people at Clemson. This is why the creation of a Black Heritage trail was the very best that they were able do, after over two years of searching for ideas to honor the enslaved, based on the inspiration that I provided with the naming of the bridge. An old Jim Crow mindset allows these same people to avoid working with those who genuinely seek truth and therefore they donā€™t mind spending millions of dollars to contemplate ideas that work around my visions. Clemson University has excepted all entries of honoring the enslaved, just as long as they understood that they wouldnā€™t have to work with me or my organization. For my innovative ideas were way too powerful.

I firmly believe that creating a Black Heritage trail maybe good in some aspects, but it does nothing at all to improve the lives of the descendants of the enslaved at Clemson University, who labored for free and created all of the luxuries that we witness today. Although placing markers along a trail does preserve history in some ways, however, it is a simplistic and outdated Jim Crow era method that really does nothing at all to assist the descendants; whose lives have been negatively affected by over a century of free labor.

The Men Of Color Having Answers Foundation has presented several effective plans to create a better tomorrow for the defendants of those enslaved, along with other Solutions to end Generational Obstacles Faced by Black People in America. After my organization named the bridge, Clemson University never even considered any of the effective ideas of change from The Men Of Color Having Answers Foundation (M.O.C.H.A.).
