Before I watch the rest of the video, I just have to say off the bat that as a Black Disabled Comrade, I’m so happy to see this masked event and I love seeing all the masked faces from a lot of the speakers. We keep us safe.
I wonder if this was filmed in 2024. It seems quite unusual for everyone to be masked. A few people, sure but everyone? 🤔 It must have been filmed in 2020/2021
Great discussion, especially the part about Marcus Garvey's changing relationships to communism and anti-imperialism. Pan Africanists need to pay close attention.
More and more, I realize that we are living in a post-modern renaissance of academic deconstruction of the European version of human development. Thank Allah for the emotional intelligence of Black women who bring humanity's capacity to characterize a return to a more wholesome and meaningful existence... a pan-African mentor used to say "We're never going to be completely free until we know our African personality in the Diaspora"
Would love to hear more from these brilliant people about their take on the various conceptions of socialist organization. “The question of revolutionary organization” has a long intellectual and practical history that seems to be avoided.
While I consider myself a student of Dr. CBS, I disagree with the idea of rejecting our 'American' identity. I am, and I think MOST black people see themselves as African American.

if racialization is constitutive of capitalism, this being a point disputed by Ellen Meiksins Wood and David Harvey, how do you account for phenomena like progressive neoliberalism (liberal anti-racism, diversity, etc) black capitalism and postmodern difference politics? a better way to describe this problem is to argue for a non-reductionist social theory where class, which is not a category of identity, is understood as central to anti-capitalism but not exclusive. you can draw connections between race and class, and between class and political economy, without getting rid of concepts like dialectics, totality, emancipation, universality, progress, mode of production, universal history, etc. against the Gerald Horne statement, the question is, as Adolph Reed and the Fields sisters would ask, how can you bring about a more equal society, across the board, with a race-first politics? the Cedric Johnson theory of racial capitalism is not a socialist theory, as Marxists at least would argue. the problem with labour is that it is weak. the problem with activist movementism is that it has no effective strategy and is mired in postmodern theory. most gains made for identity groups were made through liberal civil rights and through liberal democracy or socialism. Marxism seeks the elimination of class society. you can't eliminate whites, or men, or straights, which is why privilege theory is not a class theory. in comparison with anti-imperialism, decoloniality is anti-European and anti-socialist postmodernism. the communist manifesto: the workers have no country
I was shocked. Pan-Africanist Erica Caines was asked recently to comment on Genocide in Sudan and DRC-Congo she claimed she didn't know what was occurring in these nations. This struct me a peculiar to witness a Pan-Africanist speak quite eloquently on Genocide in Gaza and draw a blank on Genocide occurring on the continent. Something is off here.
@@beyondaboundary6034 I offer the same solution the BLA (or the IRA before the capitulation of Sinn Féin) offered - armed struggle. FIBUA. asymmetric warfare. if you're scared or can't lift your own body weight.... stay at home.
Perhaps this is their DOing and your DOing is supposed to be whatever you think that is. However, to say they are not doing anything is a discredit to intellectual work they’ve clearly put in.
@tgerard3860 I will always advocate and support Arm Struggle, but be realistic, how many people can actively and readily engage in arm struggle in America? The left does not have the power or people to go this route with us getting totally annihilate. We should be focusing on education, we should be focusing on labour organizing, we should be building structures to support our communities, we can't synthesize arm struggle until the support behind it is actualized within our communities.
Great discussion, especially the part about Marcus Garvey's changing relationships to communism and anti-imperialism. Pan Africanists need to pay close attention.

Excellent discussion. Shout out to Red Emma's and salute to Dr. CBS and Erica Caines. BAP in the building! ✊🏾

Correction - ' most black people ' should be ' most African Americans ' as it only refers to AA

Much love to the show.
Just fyi it is very low volume and hard to hear
Hope that helps the next session
Thanks for your work 💜

I like that the mask is being worn in this event I just hope to god it was mandatory to attend the event
yet another panel. yet more talk. yet more circular analysis of the same problem. yet more comfortable academics... what we DOING about it tho?
Yet another comment trashing others with no solution of your own offered.

@tgerard3860 That's some vague bullshit, and a dumb critique of this panel.
