It is always a pleasure listening to intelligent conversation
This guy is grounded and amazing deep thinker
Would love to get a glimpse of his library.
I also love the way Coates and Jackson talk @ 58 mins about the 'softness' of men and boys and this as an important part of their humanity. This is so important. I fear in the great rush toward transgenderism these days that the softness of men/boys and the hardness of women/girls is being lost, and all of our humanity is being undervalued and shoved aside to make room for people who care nothing about the idea of 'humanity' and put far too much focus on their "identity."
Simply excellent
Potentially the best
Poet writers needed to learn how to open up their hearts wide daily. Wholehearted dialogue matters especially inside the pages of a book entitled Open up your heart wide with wisdom and genuine care for others. Being respectful and truthful can live in the same space. Some people do not understand this idea in connection to balance. Scholarship and employment need to work together. Please understand wholeheartedly talking about enjoyable learning process matters in connection to writing essay papers and books . Thank you for hearing me out completely.

so today, wrt power, in January 2021, can we begin to "see" that real power, with Harris and Biden, is now coloured? That the work of Stacey Abrams has done to elect African Americans and Jews in Georgia has clearly 'moved us forward,' as Coates says? I certainly hope so.
feminism, good progressive feminism seeks justice for all, of all skin colours.
I notice Coates is very comfortable with Jewish academia. As long as he stays in the lane they want him to stay in he will be very successful in racist America.
