Whoever wants Joe to have more philosophers on the podcast, upvote!
Bring Al Green on!
@@memefeed2147 what kind of wisdom do you have to offer? It's kinda funny that you parot a dead meme by calling him NPC. But I guess the irony will be lost on you
I would like to see Slavoj Zizek and Alex Jones on. At the same time. Would either be hilarious or the most awkward thing ever.
@@freezemaster4434 I would pay for that
His management wont allow it unless they are philosophers with marxist undertones.
"When an elder dies a library burns to the ground"-African proverb
Dr. West makes me feel this in my soul.
Dr West reminds me I have a soul. I am so fortunate to have been held by this great man's warm, compassionate and loving embrace! As a devout atheist, I've been blessed by baptism! (Wonderful video! Thank you!)
he is still alive
@@roc7880 I know that my friend but when his time comes to pass we shall lose our very own walking talking library of Alexandria.
@@superpacemaker444 hopefully the MAGAs or the Cancel flowers will not burn his books. we still can read them
Derek. Read the things he suggests...and rebuild that library 😊🙏✌
Joe needs to bring him back, it is ultra relevant to have him now.
Agreed! Was just about to comment that!
True true! 👌🏻
Revisiting this conversation as well.
yes
Unfortunately he's in NY I think, or NJ since he teaches at Princeton. And a man his age probably won't be too eager to hop the plane to LA. Boy would it make my day to see a new notification and see it be a new JRE with Cornel
This guy just used "Gangsta" as a philosophical concept and I love him for that
And his characterization of the "gangsta" archetype is absolutely spot on!
I think it's essentially the "shadow self" described by Yung, but in much more accessible terms.
Marcus Carlsson Not quite. It could be looked at as a specific instance of the shadow self that manifests in many in our culture, but the shadow self incorporates many more broad tendencies than what West means by “gangsta.”
OG!
fuck being a gangster, i'll be an operator, the man gangsters fear.
Joe Rogan and Dr. Cornel West:
Showing the internet what is possible when you drop the egos, confront your own humanity, and then agree to aim higher.
10/10 and easily one of the top JRE's of all-time, IMO.
Actually, Dr. West's sheer presence demanded Rogan's best.
100% agree! Dr. Cornel West is a class act. Definitely going to pick up some of his books after hearing him.
Yes! Those of us that posess this ability will meet each other on the other side and some who don't will be left behind.
Gay
True
Dr. West referring to white people generally as white brother and sisters is very powerful, because it frames the conversation in a way that shows human beings as one family unit
dumb and racist
@ArthurDubinsky how is that racist
@@slump9535 Because Arthur's a fucking Nazi.
@An American and you know this for a fact right? You've met Dr Cornell West and you know everything about him and have conversed with him to say that that's exactly how he feels about white people? Irony is that whenever black people criticize white people, white people scream racism and anti whiteness, but if white people criticize black people, the very same white people will defend those criticisms and whip out the statistics or say "it's just a joke bro, freedom of speech"
@@warmlycalculated390 Why a Nazi? Why do we keep using that word when it doesn't apply? Someone can be racist and not a Nazi. Stop watering down that word.

For anyone who is assured of the fullness of infinity in eternity future, he/she must live & manifest even a slice of that infinity in the present so that others will also have a glimpse of such infinity hoping that they will also desire it & might have it in the process.
@@yengsabio5315 nice 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
The fact that you can hear the interest in Cornel West’s voice and him saying thank you when Joe teaches him about an entertainer he should listen to. That’s very telling of the man he is.
I love how no matter who or what group of people he spoke of.. he called them his "brothers & sisters" 🙏
Yeah notice white people never call anyone else their brothers and sisters?
@@vigadotibrand1677 I feel awkward doing it :/
those are just words. meaningless from someone like him
If I call you my little bitch it doesn't make you so. Lol this is why con artists are so successful. Gullible people

I just want to say that I am so proud of the comments section for a change. Usually I get through a few remarks, then I'm fervently scrolling up to get away from the toxicity. I got lost in them today. Finding myself liking one right after the other. Thanks to everyone for that. Made me day.

he is a great philosopher but he in not immune to biased opinion and will ride that horse forever
@@ArcadiaAus but aren't we all innately a little bit biased?
Hannity attacked him and never let him answer a question. Just framed him as being okay with violence and got him worked up for nothing.
Agent 99
If so then why get mad and act like it’s “racism”.
It seems like maybe people would be more understanding, and maybe even consider their new bias about thinking everyone else is biased and doesn’t know it. Maybe more people than you think have already acknowledged and or dealt with their biases.
You can fix how you see things. It’s not like some permanent immovable thing.
Listening his wisdom delivered with such kindness is making me cry. Such an authentic man.
Dr Cornel West is the real black lives matter, and people like him. That just's calls everyone a brother and sister, no division like talk. Even calls trump, 'brother trump' and criticise's him in a polite manner. The real MVP.
Lol you do realize that's a political strategy, right?
Anthony D so you rather people’s shout black lives matter and forcing people to kneel. ?
All I'm saying is that Cornel West's "brotha" "sista" stuff is a political strategy emblematic of a modern day MLK. He is simply using religion combined with a certain black flair to disarm his opponents and/or expose them. It's similar to MLK marching down the street in a suit and tie. Perceptions are everything. . . . . As far as kneeling and shouting is concerned? Lol. I don't know where you got that. BLM isn't out forcing people to kneel. They just don't want to be criticized as un-American or mistreated when they do kneel.
Anthony D fair enough, I understand. 👍
YES!! I thanked him out loud for this as I was listening...freaking amazing.
Cornell West can have an entire conversation with you for over an hour and it always sounds like he's telling you a secret!
Wizardry.
He kinda is. Most people don't even know about half the shit he's talking about. He's letting people in on things they typically don't know unless they're highly educated.
Shut up
LOL that's true
Jacob Abraham somebody’s mad
Noam Chomsky is among the most important intellectuals alive and won’t be alive forever. Please have him on before he’s gone
This needs to be liked more.
Noone can tolerate that slo mo drone for 3 hours
he would never do it
Yes please omg
Not sure if Joe's 30-40% of his base would like what Noam has to say. Here's what will happen, either they will downvote the heck out of it and call him "left wing" and "sjw" else they will designate his intellectual prowess as "elitist" or "I fell asleep listening to him" charade.
I love how Dr. West makes me want to be a better person.
Dr. Cornel West has a podcast now called Tight Rope if anybody wants to check it out
You the real MVP 🙏🏾💪🏾✌🏾
Thanks!
Thank you
Thanks
thank you!!
I was sleepy until 'The Rational National' with David Doel led me to this. Wide awake listening to The Dr. Cornell West.
Me too
me too
Me three lol
And me!
How much more sad and foolish do the torch carrying racists look when this brilliant man can speak with love and compassion on people whom he disagrees with or even those who would wish him harm. Dr. West is a shining example of what a heart full love and a mind full of knowledge can do for the world. True blessing.
Dr. West is the type of brother you would want to be out on a boat at the lake with and just talk about life.
I'm bringing a friend. No way i can listen to him with intent AND steer 😂

@@daisy9181 you missed the point entirely i fear
@@daisy9181 imagine being so dumb you don't realise you're exploited infinitely more by selling your labour to a company that is profiting off the back of your work.
Daisy congratulations on having absolutely no idea what you’re talking about. It’s fairly clear that you didn’t even watch the video and commented because “hiss progressivism hiss”. Unless you are a billionaire, in which case you probably dislike his ideas when it pertains to humanity. If you aren’t a billionaire, then you are boot licking the 1% while they are using their other boot to step on your back.
Dr. West's voice and wisdom just relaxes and soothes your spirit.
Yes
Love the cowboy bebop
Interesting comment. Then again Dr West makes us look at ourselves and the bigger picture through a different lens. A lens that hasn't been distorted by the influences we are bombarded with from outside ourselves on a constant basis. Every time I listen to him talk a length I feel enlightened, almost a religious experience. Truly one of the great voices of our very troubled time.
This video should be shown to anyone who thinks Joe is alt-right or a racist.
Just stopping by for the compass...
i heard people saying cornell west is racist. the iq of the world is declining and seeing mr west talking makes me optimistic
c0xb0x - 👍🏼✌️🌅
L N He has before. Said a very tasteless joke about a time he went to go see Planet of The Apes. I’m not judging, I love Joe and we all have moments were we lapse good judgement. And yes I agree with the original comment this would be compelling evidence against that accusation.

God i wish this guy was my history teacher. the way he simplify's things for my stoned brain is amazing, could listen to this guy all day
I was luck I am on a 48 hour cleanse..😉👍🏻💨
@mister.T Jr like, why even chime in? Just to be rude? I'll never understand that mentality, no matter how hard I try.
@Tom Nye he said, as he commented on the Joe "DMT" Rogan podcast video
You'd miss a lot of important history if Cornell West was your teacher.
Should've been 3 hours. One of the best podcasts Joe's ever done. This is how conversations on difficult topics should be held. More guests like this please.
100%
Crazy how respectable leftists really add quality to the discussion.
@@michaeldinapoli2960 What's interesting to me is that after listening and watching this podcast I never once thought about him being anything that ended with "ist."
@@michaeldinapoli2960
Conservative NPC spotted.
Yes!
They have manipulated the term Socialism to confuse and scare we the people constantly
Voltaire - ✌️This is why we all need to do our homework.
Thanks JOE, just let your light shine..This is my TV
It's called Red Scare
Voltaire - Yes it’s crazy, looking after our fellow humans has been re-invented as dangerous!
L N Yes. You need to be able to explain the difference between Democratic Socialism and Communism. Listen to Dr. West in that topic!
I hope the conservatives (including myself) watching this are absorbing the points being made about socialism..the current perspective/view on socialism is incredibly misleading
in fact socialism was initially a conservative religious reaction to capitalism. once Marx appeared he framed socialism in the context of secularism. the critique of free market supremacy was initially based on the fact that it undermined communities and morals
Look at Scandinavian countries and The Tennessee Valley Authority for examples of successful
Socialism.
@@paularata2875 Well Scandinavian countries are successful examples of implementation of many socialistic policies they are still capitalist. To be properly socialist it would require an abolition of the distinction between the bourgeoisie and proletariat, (in less nerdy language employers and employees) or decomodification of goods and services, which has taken place in Scandinavia with many industries. There is also laws in certain Scandinavian countries that guarantee workers a share of company stocks but in a truely market socialist system the workers would have complete ownership of the companies they work in.
Which “conservative” are you? There’s socially conservative (Republicans) and fiscally conservative (both Republicans and Democrats). Dems are socially progressive but fiscally conservative. Leftists are socially and fiscally progressive.
@@jakeb3157 How will businesses raise funds and get investment when the workers are the only stakeholders?
Edit: This is a genuine question and not an attack, it came off a bit aggressive when I read it back.
I didn’t know who Dr Cornell West was, but now I think he’s one of the wisest people alive. I love when the JRE introduces me to great people when I’m not expecting it!
Crazy he’s been around for awhile , did you ever watch real time bill mauer? He’s on there quite a bit hbo
You didn't know who Cornell West was?
Goddamn....how is that even possible? The guy is constantly involved in social politics, commentary on the black community, and is probably one of the two best known black intellectuals in modern American society. Do you just live under a rock or what?
v well said, that’s pretty much what I wanted to say
@@xArkanianx The guy is talking about how hes positivly influenced, try not to guilt and redicule him for not knowing someone before.
Yet commend him for recognizing greatness and true wisdom when he finally bears witness.
love brother :)
What's up with some of these negative comments? Calm the fuck down people, this is a positive comment. The day we stop putting others down to make ourselves feel good, that's when we'll see real progress on this Earth, dont hold your breath tho.
*"Courage is not widely distributed in the species, man"*
I felt that statement with my soul lol
It takes real courage to tell your fellow lefties "guys, I get it, we want to help, but socialism is fucking dumb"
@@Lordofthereee_ it depends on what you mean by socialism
Powerful
@@iruleandyoudont9 any derivative of it is toxic.
Joe, I'm conservative and I would say we need to hear more from Dr West. He provides balance and compassionate wisdom. Have him on again. We need voice's like this.
@Sandy Jones u are insane
@Sandy Jones he called every person brother and sister but sure he hates whites and so do I
Sandy Jones did you watch this? Do you actually know anything of Dr West? Clearly not. You’re brain washed
Sandy Jones show me what he said that was anti white
Sandy Jones back that up with proof
This man is incredibly intelligent. Some of his speeches about racism in one of Bernie's rallies brought tears to my eyes. Great speaker.
Fascinating interview! When I met Dr. West, all I could do is say "I love you"" and give him a big hug, he hugged me back and said "I love you too sister."
mysticmaverick1 Awesome! ❤️😀

Yeah, those are the kind of statements that echo back to you when you need em. I gotta get me a mini Cornel West shoulder angel to say wise shit to me when I'm down
"A culture of superficial spectacle. " That's the most accurate description of our society today that I have EVER heard.
I could listen to Cornel West talk about literally anything.
Joe just sits there quietly like a student in a lecture hall. This is one of the most powerful podcasts I've ever seen. Thank you Joe very much for this!!
A man out of depth is wise not to wade deeper; joe knows his limits and he knows when to let his guests speak!
@@pietersteenkamp5241 He can at least jump in on most of these topics, watching him talk to (sit in a room with? XD) the likes of roger penrose is funny, he's hanging on to the topics by his fingernails...as am I.
@@orbojunglist Yeh, i would let Dr west speak as much or more than Joe so it really wasn't meant as criticism!
There are very few in this world who can drop knowledge so detailed with the clarity, passion and eloquence of Dr. Cornel West.
What detail? He never explains anything. His whole thing is vague hand waving to writers and philosophers and artists without ever explaining anything.
Maybe I missed it and he got into some actual exposition in the second half because I only made it halfway before I got sick of the smoke and mirrors show.
@Firm Fiasco No, I didn't say I didn't understand. I understand perfectly, his ideas were shallow and never amounted to anything. He never took anything beyond hipster undergrad sloganeering and calling everyone brother. That's my complaint, not that I needed an explanation to understand it.
He seems like a product of a past where you just had to make a good impression on TV but there was never time to go deeply into your ideas. There's nothing that someone could not understand his slew of one liners and feel good assertions.
@@stevem815 Well I'm glad we got your bromidic criticism on the matter.
@@stevem815 Would you mind to point out exactly where he should have been clearer? I am actually interested.
@@johnsinclair4621 He's not unclear, everything he says is perfectly clear. He never elaborates or goes into detail to support his ideas though, and part of that is Rogan's fault. He does a rubbish job of getting him to go into depth. Compare this to the Bob Lazar interview (this is only in terms of style, not content) and see how the subject is examined whereas in this interview Joe just let's the interviewee freely assert whatever he likes with little expansion or elucidation.
Afterwards you end up with a kind of generalised fuzzy picture rather than a coherent outline of a subject.
I have no idea whether this guy is legit or not from this interview.
If I had this guy as a teacher I'd go every day.
stay late after class and the weekends haha
He teaches at princeton I think
"To me, one of the uplifting features of being rooted in the arts and music, is that no matter how ugly, and vicious, and hateful things are, it never suffocates the human spirit.
Somebody gonna tell a joke that make you laugh. Somebody gonna sing a song that touch your soul." - Dr. Cornel West
Can we get a JRE Clip of this moment? That moved me to tears.
Dr West educates people without making them feel less than him for not having the breath of knowledge he obtains. He makes everyone feel equal. A true Human Being. Not the robots with skin who infest the earth these days. He has the power to touch souls just like the great men and women he referenced continuously throughout the conversation. A HUMBLE KING.

You just experienced what religion is supposed to be.
Cornell West isn't your typical Christian; most of them aren't as bearable as Dr West is.
Haha West and Rogan are both such incredibly positive people, this whole episode was a love explosion.
First heard Dr. Cornell West on Immortal Techniques The Martyr. Like Dr. West, Dr. King, Bernie Sanders is cut from the same cloth. They fight because of the love and care and compassion they have for regular working/poor people. Thats why we support it. Real recognize real. Those people are rare.

Literally the best interview I've heard in about a year. So rare to get to hear Dr. West speak for 2 hours!! The greatest role model we have right now for compassion, wisdom, intellectual curiosity, and integrity. Such a leader.
T
And he stands at the side of Bernie.
Its time
I'm 45. Prof. West has been one of my heroes since early teenage when my uncle showed me one of his interviews on TV.
I grew up wishing that one day I'd meet him and he would call me "my brother".
Of all the great things we humans can do, this extraordinary man naturally excels in the hardest: deep, benevolent, all-embracing, no accessories and no lying, real, wisdom derived of love. I like the world a lot because men and women like him are in it.
That list is in fact a lot longer than one my think. I heard the word, I read the books and I have other names as well populating our young minds as a part of my family and upbringing. But Dr. West spoke like a superhero to me. Although he is living history, he is of this time, my time, he's here. Very much alive and amidst us all, and I always feel privileged for this and for his thoughts.
Perhaps the most precious thing my uncle and my mother ever gave me as a child was a simple phrase: "It's all right that your heroes do not look like you on the outside. They may be your heroes because of something a lot better than that".
Like all mums and uncles, my words.. were they so right.
This interview is on my replaylist. I would love if you could bring him back. Specially now Joe.
Hey, my brother, I hope you get your wish one day. You put work into this comment so you deserve a reply. Great post.

@@farmerx165 But nothing to show anything that shows Dr. Cornell is a racist. He doesn't like crooked politicians and has an ideology, not every American even understands, coz they don't do a deep dive in his past, but only saw a few things on some conservative or neo liberal channel, who don't agree with his ideology, esp now he endorsed Bernie Sanders. And how can a black person be racist he doesn't have power over anyone, just a voice among many other voices, only he is well educated and not fooled by the Democratic establishment and certainly not the Repugnants!!
I don’t usually leave comments... but this was amazing.

@Dearly Diane Yes. The real left are the ones trying to actually build the bridges and make the country a better place for the people. Neolibs have destroyed the credibility of the left by obsessing over identity politics while not actually challenging the economic status quo in any real way. It is only a matter of the left being able to truly represent itself without smears and propaganda. Working class Republicans can't help but listen to Bernie when he demonstrates where their economic anxiety ACTUALLY comes from. Even white nationalists can't help but silently acknowledge the fact that Bernie does actually want what's best for the people, when they could otherwise just call him a Jew and be done with it. But he doesn't fit their stereotype. Once the socialist scare propaganda is broken through, the true left will win. Power to the people.
BERNIE 2020
I agree ☝️
Now more than ever, Dr. West's speech here resonates with the need of the people.
This is one of the best thing I’ve ever watched on UA-cam. I love Dr West. I don’t care about your gender, race or politics. This is an intelligent, compassionate human who has had the same consistent message for decades. I would have loved to have seen a Bernie administration with a Dr West influence.

53:20 "We need to have voices that say 'I don't give a damn for popularity, I'm trying to be wedded to integrity'"

holy crap, i've never had so many cultural, social, artistic references dropped in one interview, I've now got a list of people, many of which i have heard of but never really looked into their work... i don't understand the dislike ratio here, probably people who are misaligned with Dr West politically, but even if you ignore that, the dude is a walking library of social and historical knowledge, damn.
One of my favorite parts of listening to Cornel West speak is discovering new art thanks to all his juicy artistic and philosophical references.
Cornell West is like the Ulysses of people (the book, not the mythical character). I don't really like his political views but he's got an encyclopedic knowledge of western culture
Someone should make a list of all the musical references listed in this podcast

I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone who loves life as much as Cornel West
It’s contagious and reminds me of that childhood exuberance that gradually diminishes as we grow more older and more jaded.
I remember playing tag with Cornel West when I was in primary school. Super cool guy, He would always visit because he's daughter was in my class
Kevin Mariusz Smith Wow, that’s so cool! I’ve been a huge fan of his for years.
Or people. All people.
or hates white people more, lol
Dr. Cornel West is our Gandalf. So much knowledge and wisdom and yet humble and soft-spoken.
and he says vote for Bernie so DO IT
BINGO.... HES OUR WIZARD
Fool of a Trump.
R.I.P. Mahatma Gandalf. Gone too soon.
Yes and just like wizards he is subtle and quick to anger
This man is the definition of presence
This was easily the best 1 hr 58 min of my life. After listening to Dr. West, I feel 10xs smarter.
Does anyone else really like the camera angle that shows both Joe and the guest? Sometimes I like to see the shit on the table.
I.V. League
Makes them look like they’re floating bodies.
Lol facts
He’s done it very early, it’s not as pleasing
Agreed! I’d love to see some reaction shots as well.
You hearing this Jamie? Joe won't notice
I’m a conservative ... but I totally enjoyed “Brother West” . Nice to hear a totally different way of thinking and logic .
I'm an atheist, most my good life long friends are not just believers, but a few are biblical scholars.
if we can but hold our differences and judgement of one another's ideas and beliefs to one side, we get to see each other's humanity, that if we are not mindful to remember due to the taking of sides, we lose site of.
Outside our ridged box of strongly held views, lay the vast plains of agreement.
Not all good and not all bad.
This is what we are.

Bravo Joe Rogan & Cornel West! This, by far, is one of my favorite West interviews -- my 3rd time watching; this is soulful, stirring, bold & honest -- two souls pontificating on the details of life....
Beautiful!...💕
Brothers like Dr. Cornel West appeal to our humanity and kindness that I think will be lost once he and a few others will be gone. The art of appealing to our better nature is something you have to practice continually and will be tested constantly. Not many will meet that challenge. Me included.
Great observation. It’s incredibly challenging to exercise and master humility. It’s without a doubt that Dr. West has to practice daily to keep grounded. Civility. Imagine being able to have a civil conversation with your polar opposite. Especially when your counterpart is biased and unruly. I love how this man sets such an incredible example. Can’t let your comment from a month ago fade as us humans tend to do when we are excited and motivated to be something better.
"Courage is not widely distributed in the species"
- Dr. West
BRAVO2I4 It is very rare.
time stamp by any chance?
Courage sold separately
@@theturtle3891 It was in the first 10 or 15 minutes of the video.
Time is 12:15 for who's interested
Only when Joe Rogan is gone you notice that this is basically only public show in USA where you can see conversation that is both genuine on one side and interesting and intelligent on other.
Nope.
joe is a meme
exactly this...when Rogan is off air we scramble for second hand content to fill the void. There is nothing more satisfying than the deep and thoughtful discourse between two interesting human beings and this episode was a prime example. This genntleman is a philosopher and very articulate, his words are meaningfull and poetic in delivery.
Yep. Pretty dry week unless you like people telling what you need to like and need to broadcast about what you should like.
YOU need to get out from you're momma's basement and have a look around.
“I ain’t got nothing against an Orgasm” 😂😭
He's like the galaxy brain version of Morgan Freeman.
My favorite podcast tbh. We need more Cornel West’s in America.
We need more Cornel West's in the World.
We need more courage in America!
Amen fam, facts
Amen to that!
"How Come Socrates Never Cries, and Jesus Never Laughs?"
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
20:28 great quote. There was an ad right between it though, which was very annoying
That's why I like my 9.99 a month. No interruptions.
Because Socrates was hip and happy, and Jesus was a miserable prick.
@Sameer Dawood Ad block is free bro 😁
I feel like I'm in another dimension listening to this man.
Joe, your guest is without a doubt, the most gangsta man you’ve ever interviewed. Your guest is an absolute stud!!
This made me smile. Reasonable men having reasonable conversation. Joe, u gotta have Dr. West again.
No. no thanks.
@@Bidens_Underground_Shelter Who the fuck are you talking to? No one was talking to you.

if bernie wins, cornel west supreme court
Ahhhhhh, the irony of a stream of thoughtless, petty, hate filled comments on an interview with a thoughtful, sincere, and loving person.
I want to be more like Dr. Cornel West... he's one of the best humans alive.
Cornel West: Talks
Me: Closes all my other tabs
Cornel West: Finishes talking
My tabs: Now filled with all the new works of art I have to read and listen to
Check out "Forced Into Glory" by Lerrone Bennet Jr. you will not regret it.
I had to pause the podcast briefly, play a couple Curtis Mayfield songs and open a few new tabs of philosophers and writers so they're ready after the podcast.
BIG FACTS MY BROTHER!!!
Absolutely amazing resource. I agree!
Exactly bro!!!
I love Dr. Cornel West's dedication to the ARTS and LITERATURE!!!! This is where you'll find truth!!
I’d love to see Chomsky on JRE. Can’t see that ever actually happening though. I think Slavoj Zizek or Yanis Varoufakis could be arranged however.
I know it is superficial, but I cannnnnot listen to Slavoj Zizek for more than 10 seconds.
Chris Hedges would be great too.
funstuff2006
I have rarely felt such a feeling of immediate disgust as watching him do anything. Fucking Kleenex was invented some time ago...
Chomsky is sadly unable to discuss things at a level he used to.
I think richard wolff would good too
Joe, get Richard Wolff on. He's got some great and very important insights that are rarely discussed in public today.
Yes! Dr Wolff will blow young people's minds on an economic level.
Fuck yeah get Richard mu'fuckin wolff on here!
Wolff, Chomsky, and Zizek. It would do a lot to open the right-leaning brothers and sisters who watch this channel's minds.
Elias Wolff, T. Frank, Mark Blythe. Nuff said.
Richard Wolf is brilliant. He’s a serious bubble burster.
Less of a conversation, more of a crash course, a sermon on the state of the Union. Gracias!!!!! Much love for every soul.
10 months later his prophesy is unfolding...
This podcast has taught me to train hard and be kind.
I am pretty old and remember Joe from News Radio. Had never watched his podcast until today when he did an excellent interview with Bernie. Now watching him interview Dr West. So much better than anything I’ve seen on mainstream channels. What I like about Joe’s interview style, based on these two, is he gives his guests the time to explain and elaborate their thoughts and ideas. You can tell he actually listens and thinks about what his guests are saying. Two thumbs up!
Before this interview I was ignorant of who Cornel West is and I'm glad that is no longer the case. His inclusive humanism is both inspiring and touching. Everyone is a brother or sister. Even Trump isn't just Trump. He is brother Trump.
He said it himself, you can dislike and ideology or a policy, but he couldn't dislike another human because we are a family. He's a true Christian, one whom lives as his savior did.
Trumps the adopted brother who never felt accepted
Cornel also says, "and i must correct my brother"as an obligation of Love..
West is smart enough to know that the issues that are present in the U.S. are not caused by President Trump. Heck, he's just been in office since January 2017. These issues have been around forever. The ruling class in the U.S. has failed the citizens, and they have pushed back by electing Trump. If they don't fix things, it will only get worse and you'll get another guy like Trump elected. That's why guys like Bill Maher who wish for a recession to assist in booting Trump from office, are just ignoring the larger problems which put him in office in the first place.
@@donaldryan4876
if you study the bible from a dispassionate perspective you'll realize the closest thing to a real christian is the phelps family of usa.
the bible explicitly tells you to hate on others.
and the jesus character reinforces that when he explicitly tells you not to abolish or modify the 613 commandments of the old testament(a.k.a. "the law") but to obey them as written.
i'm glad he's no a true christian.
i'm glad most christians arent true christians....they are cafeteria christians....picking and choosing the parts they like based on their own moral compass, which is far superior to the moral compass of the bible.
Whenever I listen to Dr. West I’m left simultaneously exhausted and recharged. And when it’s over I’m aware that I have a lot of catching up to do.
Cornell is a great guest on whatever show he's on.
He is great in the back of a cab. One of his best talks took place in a yellow taxi.
