Conversation? Do you mean his TEDx presentation? He gave a presentation that largely advocated similar color-blind approaches to solving societal problems and here is what happened in Coleman's own words: ua-cam.com/video/-ZvrP618_Jo/v-deo.html@@Bonnatella
I have immense respect for Coleman. "Social media algorithmically boosted content is not educating us, it's miseducating us." And, that's not a flaw in the system. It's part of the design.
If only race was a real thing😅 saying you are a race is like saying you belong to a family who has been inbreeding for thousands of years lol.. there are ethnicities and there are different blends of ethnicities but as far as race there is no such thing. It's a purely propaganda control arm of the Democratic party. There is no such thing as black, white, or any "colors".. It's pure propaganda of the uneducated that need a cop out or something to blame for their own failures in life. Everyone in the world is a blend of a multitude of ethnicities. Nobody belongs to a race. Nobody has belonged to a race since we were cavemen. Race is complete bullshit and doesn't even exist. Black Americans are really the only community that recognizes race. No other country or ethnicity or culture recognize the word "race". Outside of America it's called ethnicity and everyone outside of America understands everyone in the world is a blend of all kinds of things. If someone believes there is a race they are fundamentally stupid😅 I mean do you know what race is? If you are talking about race you likely have no idea what it is lol.. there's no way to be talking about race and not be a victim of it's propaganda
@@janelliot5643 over whose heads... that speaks volumes we are all dumb and the mofos supporting trump whose side he is on are the smart and intelligent ones... I see
I had a similar childhood as Coleman. We didn't see race as kids. We just cared if they were WCW or WWE fans. If they played Pokémon. If they liked the Power Rangers, etc. We all saw each other has human beings.
IKR? We're such geezers now, but kids these days don't realize that we grew up thinking Magic School Bus was the average class, and no one on that show was a stereotype but their own character... plus Recess, Fairly OddParents and later Danny Phantom, Hey Arnold... we had THE Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and Clarissa explaining it all to all of us.

If we ever get past this period of craziness, it will be in large part because of the public engagement of thoughtful people like Coleman. He does give me hope.
really, hating the powerless in society and making every excuse you can for the perceived powerful isn't very thoughtful.... it is opportunistic bordering on evil
Wow incredible how I missed that part of who Coleman Hughes is. Enlighten as to what he has said that could possibly be construed as "hating the powerless in society"@@asaasare220
So I somehow missed this evil....incredible. Please show me something that he said or wrote that reveals "hating the powerless in society" aspect of Coleman that I've missed?@@asaasare220
It's amazing to me that someone can distort what Coleman says to thinking he's "hating the powerless in society". I'd like to see something he wrote or said that would indicate that's what he's doing and thinks. I expect nothing...because somebody is clearly incapable of arguing their point, they can only make baseless personal insults.
Coleman is the clearest, calmest, and most reasonable speakers on this topic. He articulates what I’ve felt intuitively but could barely describe. I will be definitely be buying his book and sharing it with everyone who will read it.
And that's all you need to manipulate people: to be the "clearest, calmest and most reasonable." If he was yelling the exact same words, you would think opposite of him. This shows it doesn't even matter what you say, its just how you say it and as long as you say it in a way people love, they'll eat it up, no matter how much they may be manipulating you. This is how politicians rise to power. They simply manipulate every one with charisma. Screw substance. They only thing one needs to advance in America is style.
I think you meant to say *one of* the clearest... I'd mention him alongside people like Thomas Sowell, Glenn Loury, Larry Elder, John McWhorter and Roland Fryer. And while I'm sure these fine gentlemen have their disagreements and differences of opinions, I believe that overall, their wise voices act as a powerful counterbalance to the onslaught of dividing and hate-encouraging messages coming from a lot of the academia and MSM these days.
But he’s wrong. The issue with Blacks in the USA is CULTURE! The degrading music that venerates gangsters and rappers, men who don’t know how to be fathers and teach their children, women who have sex with any random man and end up as single mothers. If blacks want to improve their situation, they need to improve their culture first. Blacks need to quit the drugs/gangs and look at the Asians, who actually WANT to thrive in this country
He has an Ax to grind, skewed MLK message and misses the actual Demographic change that is driving current culture. Many fact are well documented outside his omissions

Bravo to Coleman for having the fact based arguments and courage to push back against the current tribal zeitgeist. Let’s hope a critical majority of citizens can expand this conversation.
@@guyledouche4918 No. Colorblindness is defined by ignoring or denying the existence of racial differences - ignoring the problems and disagreements doesn't make them simply go away. MLK didn't advocate for colorblindness. He did advocate for the need to address and rectify the historical and systemic injustices that disproportionately affected black Americans. CRT says that many black Americans have been disadvantaged over generations. It doesn't say that all white people are evil nor that all black people are good/morally superior.
@@SchnellTim the problems you claim to exist merely don't. You're chasing a Boogeyman of evil wight waycissm that doesn't exist. He did advocate for colorblindness. It was his entire shtick.

That's not true. CRT does in fact say that all white people are evil. Is racism evil?
Incorrect. The issue with Blacks in the USA is CULTURE!

He's ignorant of the fact that CRT actually doesn't "equate whiteness with evil and blackness with moral superiority". CRT does no such thing. It doesn't say that all white people are evil and all black people are good. It says that racial dynamics in the US have disadvantaged many black Americans over generations. He hasn't actually done that much research about CRT...or he just chooses to misrepresent it with his audience.
I was very pleased to be able to finally hear someone speak the facts , the actual truths regarding the subject of racism and the real state of its ( non) exsistence. The propagating of misinformation about racism has created more racial divisiveness at times than actually exsists. I for one, have felt that way for quite some time. See the face, hear the voice, listen and learn, and the color of the skin becomes irrelevant. Young, old, shy, or bold, we all can benefit from listening to this gentleman . Great show, Bill, and wonderful panel!
So racism doesn't exist? Huh? When did it go away exactly?--maybe a time and date would help. Or was it that it never existed? Or maybe all of those studies that show race based bias--e.g., the study that randomly assigned two variations of the same resume-the only difference being the name of the applicant (one sounding more "white" the other sounding more "black), all else exactly the same, then sent in random order to companies with the result being that the resume with the "white" name got called back several times more often. If there is not racism then do you think it is not an advantage to be born white (all other things equal), an disadvantage? If you are white do you think your life would have been the same if you had been born black? (Non) existence? Do you have any recollection at all about how Obama was treated---the "not a citizen, not born here" that was gobbled up voraciously by millions of (white) people? WTF planet are you on. Even this guy is not claiming there is no racism.
@@gregcable3250 The funny thing about the resume example is that bias only appeared when they used black first names. When they tried the same experiment with black surnames, the results didn’t replicate.
@@Justwonguy Yes, exactly. Well many black American surnames are former slave owner names and often then Scot-English. So the identifying component was the first name which signaled to the companies that the applicant was African-American. But there is no racial bias in the US, so relax. 🙂
@4HonestyandJustice4All well I've seen the light.... all the right wing backlash from the black national anthem at the super bowl certainly has me convinced that racism doesn't exist 👍
Montclair NJ, my birth place, is an exceptionally liberal, diverse, and progressive city, even in NJ. Go next door to East Orange, Newark, Belleville, or Bloomfield and schools and the surrounding communities are not nearly so forward-thinking.
@@SchnellTim Unfortunately, I haven't read his book yet to be able to make any assessment on that. Have you? Did you find it an interesting perspective? 🙂
Even an international one - I've been following him for years, and I'm Austrian but very interested in race relations in particular and US politics in general. I see a bright future for Mr Hughes.
People need to stop falsely attributing quotes to random famous people. Here's a test to know if the quote is misattributed. If the person is dead and you read it on the internet, that person didn't say it. For unknow reasons, this quote started getting attributed to Mark Twain in 2007. There is no known evidence he ever said it, and variations of the quote predate Twain by centuries.
@@SchnellTim Why would you stomp on my joy? 🤨 He's trying to break the divisiveness in our country, in which he doesn't define but he points out, CRT is the problem. He's trying to remind us of a better time, when "colorblindness" was the goal. For that, I have mad respect for him.🏅
@@luckystarship2275 CRT says that many black Americans have been disadvantaged over generations. It doesn't say that all white people are evil and all black people are good.
Every person in America should see this. He is 100% accurate. Social media is the root of all these “issues” society is facing right now. It’s time to turn off the phones and reconnect with the real world.
@@misterman2830not to op's point, but social media targets us with algorithms that intentionally divide because it gains attention. So....if you specify for different audiences then you bring attention to places that might just not have mattered otherwise, to people or groups. Over and over on social media can give the sense it is a thing even if not if one sorta stays there on social media to gain the insight. In short, look around you outside in the real community to see if it is a problem first. Like right in your yard my dude. Really a prob? Check social media again and yep, see one and two and three probs. Check your yard again. Another in short, it could be all in your head. Planted by social media and politics and...this kinda show to move you where you are wanted.

2013 is incidently also the time Millenials (defined for ease as 1980-1995) begin to become the dominant factor in the Social Media. That start defining people by their biology as a trait of character (Ashamed to be white/Proud to be black).

This is a great question though.
@@justinatest9456 It's hilarious how difficult it is to get white Americans to talk about the slavery practiced here. Why is that? Is it identical to every form of slavery or are you just desperate to avoid the atrocities you love to whitewash?
I'm not saying it's right but it's a backlash against the slow progress and even some reversal in race relations. An example is the growth of white nationalists, neo nazis, etc. in the last few years.
Countries work on symbols. This one means, "Give me your tired, your poor..." 🗽What this country needs is a unifying symbol, so that long after we are all gone, Americans in the future will remember: We once had a great man, who taught us to judge by the content of character, not the color of skin. Put that man's likeness next to Lincoln, on Mount Rushmore.
Mr. Hughes is not wrong about social media but if Americans want to understand the roots of today's problems, they should read two publications: Where Do We Go From Here by Dr. King and the Kerner Commission Report.
Totally incorrect! I listen to reputable journalists like Joy Reid, Chris Hayes, Lawrence O’Donnell, Sunny Hostin, Joy Behar, that dude R Maddow, and most of the cast of CNN and know that everything is the fault of the “Maga Republicans” and that ex-marine Daniel Penny.
Mlk said “I have a dream that MY FOUR LITTLE CHILDREN will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character
He also woke up from that dream to wonder if he'd made the mistake of wanting to integrate with a burning house, but conservatives only know one sentence about MLK and love to pretend it's about not seeing color rather than not judging based off it.

You don't know what "woke' means.
He is very articulate and appears very clean
@@Nionix123 What does "woke" mean? Use your own words.
@@freddyt55555 woke is a term used by typically black people as a state of being. To be socially aware of the things happening around, such as social injustice.
@@Nionix123 So, is Hughes not woke, or is he woke?
Read his book it's so good. And probably ahead of his time but logic and rationality is always hard for mainstream public.
Good for immigrants who aren't FBA.
Nailed it. Unfortunately.
He is the spiritual successor to Thomas sowell in my opinion, these kinds of people are not just ahead of their time they are timeless
@@DrBoofenstein - Sowell. Another joker backed by suspected WS and paid well to do it. At least Sowell is an American unlike that immigrant Diaz Hughes.
@@rgood1204 I don't know who Diaz is but I do know Coleman personally. Regardless, his words are absolutely true.
....Which I said the minute social media became a thing. We went overnight from the Information Age to the Propaganda Age -- and all for political aggrandizement.
And you didn't warn us?! This is all your fault!
😂😂@@sea_triscuit7980
Well said.
Love Coleman. One of my college professors was actually the one who co-authored that survey he mentioned at the end there.
So glad to see Coleman Hughes on Bill Maher! A great person to have on the show.
It’s like a breath of fresh air, listening to this young man who is so intelligent should give people hope.
Great guest, and a great and fair discussion .
Love you Coleman.
My ninth video of this young man and I’m obsessed with his thinking. He states he hates politics but I think he needs to be central into it for us clear, self thinking Americans. Coleman gives me so much hope for the future
Thank you Bill for bringing on Coleman. Great convo!!!!
Coleman is one of the great young thinkers of his generation.
Bravo to Coleman for having the fact based arguments and courage to push back against the current tribal zeitgeist. Let’s hope a critical majority of citizens can expand this conversation.
Thank God for young people like Coleman speaking out!
Coleman Hughes == National Treasure. 💚
Coleman is always a delight.
Ignorant as hell, but it’s good to hear different viewpoints 🙂
@@SchnellTim nah. You're projecting.
@@guyledouche4918 No. Colorblindness is defined by ignoring or denying the existence of racial differences - ignoring the problems and disagreements doesn't make them simply go away. MLK didn't advocate for colorblindness. He did advocate for the need to address and rectify the historical and systemic injustices that disproportionately affected black Americans.
CRT says that many black Americans have been disadvantaged over generations. It doesn't say that all white people are evil nor that all black people are good/morally superior.
@@SchnellTim the problems you claim to exist merely don't. You're chasing a Boogeyman of evil wight waycissm that doesn't exist. He did advocate for colorblindness. It was his entire shtick.
Also, I don't deify him the way you do. Idk what mlk said or didn't say. He's not Jesus and he's not Steven Hawking. He was a communist adulterer. His opinion isn't gold just because you say it is.
That's not true. CRT does in fact say that all white people are evil.
Is racism evil?
@@SchnellTim you mean differences like the propensity to commit crime?
This man is a true centrist. Love to see representation out there.
Thx Coleman and Bill
Wonderful person with a very important message for today. So glad he is around.
Coleman is brilliant, and correct.
Incorrect. The issue with Blacks in the USA is CULTURE! The degrading music that venerates gangsters and rappers, men who don’t know how to be fathers and teach their children, women who have sex with any random man and end up as single mothers. If blacks want to improve their situation, they need to improve their culture first. Blacks need to quit the drugs/gangs and look at the Asians, who actually WANT to thrive in this country
He has opened my eyes. I was also brainwashed, but Coleman helped me see my fault in my thinking.
He's ignorant of the fact that CRT actually doesn't "equate whiteness with evil and blackness with moral superiority". CRT does no such thing. It doesn't say that all white people are evil and all black people are good. It says that racial dynamics in the US have disadvantaged many black Americans over generations. He hasn't actually done that much research about CRT...or he just chooses to misrepresent it with his audience.
Until he backtracked about the benefits of BLM or the part where he incorrectly said CRT was created in the 60s/70s
@@lostwanderer6649 Much of the foundational writings of CRT were developed in the 1970's. It was further codified in the 1980's
I was very pleased to be able to finally hear someone speak the facts , the actual truths regarding the subject of racism and the real state of its ( non) exsistence. The propagating of misinformation about racism has created more racial divisiveness at times than actually exsists. I for one, have felt that way for quite some time. See the face, hear the voice, listen and learn, and the color of the skin becomes irrelevant. Young, old, shy, or bold, we all can benefit from listening to this gentleman . Great show, Bill, and wonderful panel!
Aww how cute....you think racism doesn't exist in America 🙄
So racism doesn't exist? Huh? When did it go away exactly?--maybe a time and date would help. Or was it that it never existed? Or maybe all of those studies that show race based bias--e.g., the study that randomly assigned two variations of the same resume-the only difference being the name of the applicant (one sounding more "white" the other sounding more "black), all else exactly the same, then sent in random order to companies with the result being that the resume with the "white" name got called back several times more often. If there is not racism then do you think it is not an advantage to be born white (all other things equal), an disadvantage? If you are white do you think your life would have been the same if you had been born black? (Non) existence? Do you have any recollection at all about how Obama was treated---the "not a citizen, not born here" that was gobbled up voraciously by millions of (white) people? WTF planet are you on. Even this guy is not claiming there is no racism.
@@gregcable3250 The funny thing about the resume example is that bias only appeared when they used black first names. When they tried the same experiment with black surnames, the results didn’t replicate.
@@Justwonguy Yes, exactly. Well many black American surnames are former slave owner names and often then Scot-English. So the identifying component was the first name which signaled to the companies that the applicant was African-American. But there is no racial bias in the US, so relax. 🙂
@4HonestyandJustice4All well I've seen the light.... all the right wing backlash from the black national anthem at the super bowl certainly has me convinced that racism doesn't exist 👍
thank god for people like Coleman it gives America hope
Excellent points
Montclair NJ, my birth place, is an exceptionally liberal, diverse, and progressive city, even in NJ. Go next door to East Orange, Newark, Belleville, or Bloomfield and schools and the surrounding communities are not nearly so forward-thinking.
I lived in Bellvile and Newark and Elizabeth.

Thank you. He's an important voice to hear.
Maybe. He doesn’t know what CRT and colorblindness are though
@@SchnellTim Unfortunately, I haven't read his book yet to be able to make any assessment on that. Have you? Did you find it an interesting perspective? 🙂
He lays out his thoughts so stinking good. Love hearing him talk!
He speaks truth to the tenth power
Coleman is a shining light, please shine it in each corner.
Love Coleman Hughes!
Many have already said this, but this man gives me hope.
Coleman is a national treasure.
Even an international one - I've been following him for years, and I'm Austrian but very interested in race relations in particular and US politics in general. I see a bright future for Mr Hughes.
@@willardaustria- he isn't an FBA so he has no sway with anyone and is paid by suspected WS.
He’s ignorant and uninformed, but so be it

Some news, yes, but that was in the late 1880s. It is an easy way to stay stupid--just look at Magats and what they believe.
People need to stop falsely attributing quotes to random famous people. Here's a test to know if the quote is misattributed. If the person is dead and you read it on the internet, that person didn't say it.
For unknow reasons, this quote started getting attributed to Mark Twain in 2007. There is no known evidence he ever said it, and variations of the quote predate Twain by centuries.

I adore Coleman Hughes!!! ❤
Seems like a bright guy, but he incorrectly defined CRT.
Really? How would you define it? @@SchnellTim
@@SchnellTim he nailed it but sadly the mainstream media has you believe otherwise
@@SchnellTim Why would you stomp on my joy? 🤨 He's trying to break the divisiveness in our country, in which he doesn't define but he points out, CRT is the problem. He's trying to remind us of a better time, when "colorblindness" was the goal. For that, I have mad respect for him.🏅
@@luckystarship2275 CRT says that many black Americans have been disadvantaged over generations. It doesn't say that all white people are evil and all black people are good.
Looking forward to the next 40 years with this young man. Should be enlightening.
Love this man Coleman amazing talent he got 👏👏👏👏❤️👍
This video should be circulated and have 1 billion views.
More Coleman please!
Thanks to both of you.
Always great to see Coleman
I like this guy
The show was excellent, The two guess is working well. Bob Costas made some great points.
This guy is awesome. Thanks bill for featuring him.
This guy gets it. True liberal.
Sense! Finally 🥲
Glad to see Coleman on a big platform. Will be buying the book.
Hope for the future in this young man! Shocked that Bill didn't interrupt Coleman!
Every person in America should see this. He is 100% accurate. Social media is the root of all these “issues” society is facing right now. It’s time to turn off the phones and reconnect with the real world.
Because these issues didn't predate social media? That is adorable.
@@misterman2830not to op's point, but social media targets us with algorithms that intentionally divide because it gains attention. So....if you specify for different audiences then you bring attention to places that might just not have mattered otherwise, to people or groups. Over and over on social media can give the sense it is a thing even if not if one sorta stays there on social media to gain the insight.
In short, look around you outside in the real community to see if it is a problem first. Like right in your yard my dude. Really a prob?
Check social media again and yep, see one and two and three probs. Check your yard again.
Another in short, it could be all in your head. Planted by social media and politics and...this kinda show to move you where you are wanted.
@@highstax_xylophones It "gains" what you give it. Don't blame the algorithm.
So you think he was 100% accurate in saying that CRT gives moral superiority to blacks?
@@highstax_xylophonesBefore Social Média, It was Television Radio and Film.
The sad part is when you tell a liberal that the number is 12 they are disappointed
Sad but true
Absolutely spot on Coleman. You the man 🇬🇧
Coleman Hughes would make a great president.
One day, for sure!
Loved this, the potential Thomas Sowell of our time.
Thomas Sowell is utterly dishonest.
Now I have to look up and follow this man
As a Mexican working remotely with an “all white” set of coworkers from all around the country. I’m respected, hired and acknowledged not because of my race but because of my job experience, education and soft skills.
Yes! Go Coleman
I stand with Coleman.
Love this guy. Black, educated and independent thought.
Been a Coleman fan for years. Good to see him getting wider recognition.
I genuinely cannot believe that what he’s saying has become controversial.
Amen
Keep going Coleman! You’re a hero!
Much needed conversation !!!
Thank you 🙏🏽
"The Grift" in full view.
It's the cameras that are filming the police interactions that have changed whether or not cops get charged.
Even with the cameras they often still don't get charged. Things like qualified immunity also don't help.
@@n1lla Qualified immunity has nothing to do with criminal charges. Qualified immunity only affects civil cases. Your case has to meet certain qualifications to continue.
An aging Tom Sowell makes me despair. His intelligence and eloquence are unmatched. Coleman gives me so much hope for the future.
The fact that the only thing those critical of Colman’s position can do is launch ad hominem attacks show us he is truly speaking the truth.
2013 is incidently also the time Millenials (defined for ease as 1980-1995) begin to become the dominant factor in the Social Media. That start defining people by their biology as a trait of character (Ashamed to be white/Proud to be black). You can find similar structures in how Millenials let themselves be defined by their sexuality (Which is a part of their biology). It will be interesting to see what Gen Z and Gen A brings to the table.
I wouldn't say 'interesting', more like scary af.
@@paulinegauthier1867 Fair xD
You think the beginning of defining people by their "biology" began with social media? What site was used during slavery?
@@misterman2830 Actually slavery began 10s of thousands of years before social media, so you'll need to be more precise please.
Or did you mean the slavery that still goes on today across Africa and the Middle East? That would make more sense. Umm, I'm not sure which site today's slave traders use. This is a great question though.
@@justinatest9456 It's hilarious how difficult it is to get white Americans to talk about the slavery practiced here. Why is that? Is it identical to every form of slavery or are you just desperate to avoid the atrocities you love to whitewash?
The left abandoned MLK Jr's words.
I'm not saying it's right but it's a backlash against the slow progress and even some reversal in race relations. An example is the growth of white nationalists, neo nazis, etc. in the last few years.
How so?
God bless him💯💯💯
Smart guest.
Wow this man nailed it. Bravo, my friend!
Countries work on symbols. This one means, "Give me your tired, your poor..." 🗽What this country needs is a unifying symbol, so that long after we are all gone, Americans in the future will remember: We once had a great man, who taught us to judge by the content of character, not the color of skin. Put that man's likeness next to Lincoln, on Mount Rushmore.
He massively underestimates how invincible the 'blue shield' was before video evidence and sharing
Coleman is awesome. So level headed and articulate
He is so right in many things. Especially how the media distorts perception of reality for us.
Mr. Hughes is not wrong about social media but if Americans want to understand the roots of today's problems, they should read two publications: Where Do We Go From Here by Dr. King and the Kerner Commission Report.
I’d like to add “Intellectuals and Society” by Thomas Sowell.
Totally incorrect! I listen to reputable journalists like Joy Reid, Chris Hayes, Lawrence O’Donnell, Sunny Hostin, Joy Behar, that dude R Maddow, and most of the cast of CNN and know that everything is the fault of the “Maga Republicans” and that ex-marine Daniel Penny.
Mlk said “I have a dream that MY FOUR LITTLE CHILDREN will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character
And the left has been shitting on him for decades because of it.
He also woke up from that dream to wonder if he'd made the mistake of wanting to integrate with a burning house, but conservatives only know one sentence about MLK and love to pretend it's about not seeing color rather than not judging based off it.
