Barkley made a blanket statement. Isn he saying that ALL"unintelligent" people try to hold back "intelligent" black people? That is completely illogical. I have not experienced it, neither has by son who visited Rice, Yale, Baylor, UT and TAMU, upon their request.Harvard, Brown, Cornell, and Princeton are offering him academic schlorships as well. He gets letters every day from colleges. There are at least 100 colleges recruiting him due to his academic prowess. . What irritates him the most is when people of other races tell him "you are smart and articulate for a black guy" as if they are stunned.
