- "CLASS IS IN SESSION" - PART (1) of (4)
In the late summer of 1971 in California at Berkeley, Sun Ra took part in presenting a series of lectures as part of the Pan African Studies curriculum. In (4) parts this is the complete lecture segment on "THE POWER OF WORDS".
Remember, Sun Ra was a "UNIVERSAL BEING" not of this dimension or of a race category.
With all his informative authority, in some cases during these lectures, the content will be shocking to hear. With the topic of our theme, Sunny breaks down the subject matter giving you answers to many questions the people of the planet need to think about.

Sun Ra's poetics of language are profound. His takedown of supremacist hegemony is devastatingly multilayered, esoteric.
Peace to Sun Ra I'm glad people are finally listening to him, he was way ahead of his time as far as thought goes.
ORIGINALTHINKA Yes
And music!
Timeless
The point explored in the first minute and a half was perfectly said. Really resonated with my philosophy on studying my influences
What a fantastic upload! SunRa was a very deep brotha. I've been listening to his music for years but never heard him lecture. This was great! Thanks again.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICES ON EARTH SUN RA....ME AND MY WIFE BEEN LOVING THIS BROTHER...NOT EVEN KNOWING MY GRANDMA WENT TO HIGH SCHOOL TOGETHER IN ALABAMA.
That's Wonderful....Stars Fell on Alabama
Your Grandma was from Birmingham? What was her name?
Non stop wording in rhythm making his knowledge being spoken through a natural flow in conversation....NON STOP..😍
i read somewhere that Sun Ra had his Arkestra 'policing' the lecture hall/room making sure nobody was surreptitiously taping him.that might be the most wonderful image i've ever had in my head.a gonzo sesame st. police force from Saturn prowling the room clutching their horns all baton-like.They obviously weren't that good at that particular aspect of their arkestrian duties,as is evidenced above,thank goodness .i guess it's not easy looking menacing dressed in be-sequined tutankamen headgear....
I'm getting Finnegans Wake flashbacks here
The fall of man (simultaneous with the origination of language itself), the "shut" (the Prankquean fable), the idea of knowledge being spread throughout multiple books in different language all related by etymology & word permutations, light/dark, Shaun/Shem, Biblical gnosis, Hebrew wordplay, karma (seed/fruit in terms of action), death/rebirth, mathematics, spells, gnosis, the idea of each of us being linked back to ancient peoples, in fact the idea that we ARE those same ancient peoples who have fallen asleep to our ancient or angel nature (HCE as both Pharaoh & Everyman), etc etc
I recall once tripping on acid at a friend's apartment after listening to "Space is the Place" & "Images", which became stuck in my head for the duration of the trip & were a source of power (my very first trip had been a series of Hell/sex visions, this being my second trip, in a much better set/setting); the spiral nature of the 5/8 swung bass swirl in the former & the circle of fifths-type spiral chord progression of the latter seemed evocative of the very nature of existence itself, and the boundaries between myself, my companions, our environment, and the situation of supposedly-modern/"civilized" humanity seemed nominal (words again)... as if, for a time, we were "offstage"...
All Praises Due.A message to the Universe. 🌏 🙏🏿 💎
God bless you for sharing this...
I'd love to see a picture of the blackboard at the end of this lecture.
oh my days can you even imagine?! hahahahaha.
Is that really a tattoo on your face?
Cool it's got colour too..ta moko is a facial tattoo in me culture
@@CrayziePinke it's not tattooed, it's made using a program called deepdream, created by google. basically uses a computer to try imitating what dreams must be like using synthetic neural connections and changes pictures/videos based on that. really neat stuff, but could be the beginning of the end. or the start of something new :)
Every inch covered in toddler-like writing... absolutely no space LMAO 👽
"Along with education in schools, I was also educated by the creator of the universe. Which is...uh...not...everybody possibly not supposed to believe that. Makes no difference to me. Nevertheless, I know a lot of people don't know. No man taught me. Neither white man nor black man taught me these things."
Sure is Amazing isn't it? Being tutored by the lord through everything all around us. The word is alive!
Thank you for uploading this🙏🏼what a genius
This is incredible. Check out Michael Tsarion. He discusses to this depth too.
Sun Ra was a the type of Cat who would speak gibberish to college students as he were a Philosopher. Using broad association, quoting from black sociologists, defining the etymology of multisyllabic words, he developed a treatise which he presented as a sort of Universal Wisdom which only he understood. "There are 7 vowels, stand for God's Word, money makes the vowels binding." You can hear the ooooohs and aaaaaahs
Genius
Mind Blown!🤓
Love brother.
Thank U
It moves on yah 'n all kinda wehs. This is genius. With rhythm, and with idiom of the Jewish language.

Remofectionismal is chemoflectionalismist.
Sun ra where are they now
Ehahrhthh
Does God make mistakes?
nah.
Yep
she looks like the apophatic phaneron
Cool lecture but this sun ra sounds insane. Or at the least other worldly
I think he claimed he was from another planet.
Sun Ra loved music.
Miles Davis loved music, women and cars.
So what we choose?:
MILES DAVIS !!!
Sun Ra loved people
@@MrJadePinwheel Yeah! I agree - good point.
Sun Ra, always.
Like a con and a victim. But be careful because they will affect you too.
Explain yourself, Oscar Dee.
The con and the victim are both being affected in different ways and its being done to them both by the same method. What ever you think, its not what you think.
Great explaining. Are you implying that Sun Ra was a con (and a victim) because of the institution he was associated with?
Yes, but not just Sun Ra. All of us. No explaining necessary. Wishing nothing but good for you.
Appreciate it.
i have no clue what hes sayin. this english? i cant hear no facts just a buncha non sense
would it be more meaningful if you smoked a bunch of drugs and a self transforming machine elf showed you a hologram of everything he was saying as he was saying it? Maybe then you'd learn some "facts",yeah?
