RIP to a real one, right when we need thinkers like this. Terrible, his work had a big impact on me. He was denied tenure for supporting the unionizing of grad students at Yale, a man of principle and a real humanist. He will be missed.
This is beautiful. A disheveled mass of people sitting down and having a raw discussion about popular power while the authority of the British State looms over them via it's recruited agents.
I just found ot about Davids passing. Im actually weeping. I cant undertand this.He was so amazing. Such a unique mind. I want David Graeber back in this world. He helped me so much with my depression. But he had no idea. He was such an amazing writer and thinker
that's AFTER the european masses had read about and been influenced by interactions between colonialists and the indigenous people they'd encountered - whose understanding of freedom was very different from pre-enlightenment europe
DAVID GRAEBER was a founding member of the Institute for Experimental Arts He did a lecture with the title: How social and economic structure influences the Art World in the Financial Consequences - International MultiMedia Poetry Festival organized by the Institute for Experimental Arts supported by LSE Department of Anthropology. Influential anthropologist David Graeber, known for his 2011 volume Debt: The First 5000 Years speaks about the correlation between the cultural sphere and society. The intellectuals and the artists create an imaginary way to criticize the economic system in any era. Art can overcome hegemonic frameworks and acknowledge other possible worlds, offer us the opportunity to understand better the marginalized social entities. Social exclusion is the process in which individuals or people are systematically blocked from (or denied full access to) various rights, opportunities and resources that are normally available to members of a different group, and which are fundamental to social integration and observance of human rights within that particular group (e.g., housing, employment, healthcare, civic engagement, democratic participation, and due process). As the economic crises go deeper in time more people face the effects of exclusion. Art and social sciences can give voice to the voiceless. Especially young social aware poets can give us a clear view of the real social effect of the financial consequences. - David Graeber You can watch the Lecture here: ua-cam.com/video/WCF-8OQj0RE/v-deo.html
Another person with a brain good enough to see through the bull shit and think outside of the system we have all been taught is the only way and truth. Along with the courage to say it.
How can the Enlightment been borrowed by the Native Americans if they never went beyond a tribal society, without any scientific breakthrough, without any judicial system beign written down, or even without establishing an educational system? Graeber discounts the whole Reinessance period that sparked from Italy, which btw never had a colony in Native America, as if it never happened or if it even had any influence in the following centuries; moreover, he doesn't mention the ancient Greek philosophers and their major influence on the creation of democracy in the west.
From reading the popular documents of the Renaissance, David Graeber (and David Wengrow) saw that the most influential authors of that period were widely quoting from Native American wisdom. You may take for example KONDIARONK whose person and traditional ideas was the basis for numerous "wise man" characters created by European authors, he was well loved by Europeans rich and poor (yes, the poor back then read intellectual books). There can only be direct democracy, representative democracy is an illusion. What kind of society did the ancient Greeks have? How did Socrates end up drinking hemlock? I believe democracy only exists when people -- WE -- can disagree but not force each other to death. As for Italy, people were very mobile back then. Passports, visa requirements, and TSA didn't stop Italians from traveling. Thanks for sharing your doubts. Rest in power David Graeber.
@@violm2433 You just discounted centuries of history, art, commerce, trade, war, Europeans went through 'till the Reinessance with the Midleast and Asia, which were much stronger and faster influencer than native American. You ought to read the classic Greek authors, the basis for our freedoms of today come from their sacrificies, just like you mentioned Socrates.
@@Dr.Kananga I believe nothing was discounted. Instead, something was added, the recognition for the contributions of Native American cultures to the progressive ideas of the world we live in today. Yes, everyone has a contribution to the world.
I have to owe to my stupid mistake here. I meant really "popular documents of the Enlightenment" rather than "popular documents of the Renaissance". Sorry Molossus and others if this caused confusion.
This lecture is helpful too: ua-cam.com/video/EvUzdJSK4x8/v-deo.html David Wengrow and David Graeber explain more about what they found about the links of indigenous North American ideas with Enlightenment ideas.
He was blacklisted by American academic institutions because he was too politically active but this is what I call teaching. RIP David
He died for true Democratic
and british ones! he tells nice stories about why cambridge didnt hire him bc the administrators couldnt "use" him 🤣

Полностью с вами согласен. Он был хорошим человеком!
RIP David, the world will miss you deeply

Be glad that he lived and wrote. Be part of his legacy.
I found out yesterday. I went about the day's business, occationally stoping to say "fuck, David Graeber is dead" to myself.
It honestly sucks that he's gone.
245
Think it was him and Chomsky that introduced me to what Anarchism actually meant.
3:00 what most people don't acknowledge...A lot of the enlightenment was borrowed from the Native American people directly.
Enlightenment originated from Europe.

Rest In Power, David Graeber
Amazing 💖
im interested in finding readings on the political histories of the native societies he was referring to. can anyone point me in the right direction?
His book the dawn of everything talks about it some, thought that’s not the main focus of the book
:Жаль, что не удастся уже пообщаться с Дэвидом!
We live in a Oligarchy. Not a democracy.
4:36 i wish david witnessed and commented on the $GME situation
RIP good man. What did he die off and why is it not public.
Necrotic pancreatitis...the autopsy took awhile because he was in Italy during the surge in the pandemic.
RIP
yeah exactly that they stole from natives than an unrefined of a more refined version of them from of them
