The beauty of gratitude for one's life, and for living has its own reparations, the gratitude the more the blessings flow.
I LOVE THIS COMMENT, I'm pinning it to the top, thank you!
@@BasicEconomics Wait because I'm going to edit it a little, and I'm happy this touched you because it's actually principle. And this identity works.
@@BasicEconomics is po up
It looks like Blacks will get reparations soon. The movement for social justice seems to keep growing stronger and stronger.
I'm done. I can't argue with the algorithm.
For those lamenting the unpopularity of Thomas Sowell . Just know that his books are selling out now. He's more popular now than he has ever been.
That's likely due to the internet. But for those of us around since before that time know him as an Op-ed columnist for many decades and author of over 50 books since 1971, he was hardly a "nobody" before the birth of UA-cam/Fakebook.
Well I think we have to thank the Democrats for this. And better later than never. And I don't know if is late because as a Mexican mom with young Americans children in elementary school I think I for me is not too late. I keep my ears and eyes open more than ever and that's why I just found this great American teacher and human being. English being my second language I hope I expressed myself in good way. I'll continue listening and discovering Mr. Thomas Sowell's work.
His arguments are very well thought and convincing. He has a knack for explaining economics for non-economists. His books are a pleasure to read.
I only discover him about 5 years ago…and I considered myself very well-read. Since then, I’ve been reading one of his books after another, and I still have plenty to go!
It is disappointing that he’s not more widely known and discussed!
That’s such good news!
Thomas Sowell, you sir are an amazing human being! I absolutely love to listen to you. Thank you for all you have done over your life time. You are a national treasure!
Thomas Sowell said he has a policy to never argue with people who say good things about him, LOL :)
A world treasure at that!
Lol you 0
Why hasn’t Thomas Sowell received the Medal of Freedom.
Here here
I like how the interviewer is respectful, doesn't interrupt, has read the book and quotes from it and helps his guest explain his concepts. These days interviews are usually more like a battle with people screaming over each other and maliciously misinterpreting other people's words.
This is how a productive interview is done. You can listen and become informed. In the typical "circus show" hostile interviewer network show, there would be outbursts "racism", "misogyny", etc. , usually unsubstantiated claims. People watch these and eat popcorn, like at a wrestling match.
that is so rare these days
I do appreciate that it's not a screaming match, but to me it it's just as useless, if not more so. They're tossing up softballs, mostly just setting him up to talk about sections of the book. There is no pushback on anything. There is no "How do you know that" or correlation is accepted as evidence enough. I suspect these are just organizations who support and/or profit from promoting points of view Sowell has. I suspect they wouldn't give an interview to someone who opposes the ideas, and if so, would not be lobbing up softballs simply to give them talking points. Really, the only thing the interviews I saw (stopped at 60%) were good for was reinforcing previously held beliefs. I don't think these have much value otherwise.
@@drunkrtard he's had plenty of discussions and interviews with people who disagree with him, going back to the 80s. As far as the facts go or proof, they're all in his books. He cites all his sources which can then be looked up for ones self
These days? This interview is literally from 2019 😂
It's sad that most people don't know of Thomas Sowell,
what a gift the masses have missed on.
more and more young people are subscribing and watching this channel, it's encouraging, keep sharing these videos!
The left demonised him and hid him from the public
Your words remind me of the quote, “The mass of men live lives of quiet desperation, what is called resignation is confirmed desperation.” HD Thoreau
We have to keep spreading his work, I put these videos of Thomas Sowell on the radio in the fab shop any chance I get. It is amazing the interest and thought his work generates even here in rural Appalachia USA in a plant that builds and services coal mining machines. His work is so well formed and simply stated that its like watching light bulbs go off for folks listening when they hear Mr. Sowell break down these convoluted and complex issues. I wish i had found him sooner.
@@benisrood....and Fox News? What's their excuse?
I remember reading Thomas Sowell 10 years ago when virtually nobody outside a bunch of Econ geeks in college knew his name. Great to see his profile expand to a much larger audience on social media in 2021.
I first discovered him about 3 years ago.
I was blown away instantly, by a video made in the 1980's.
It is beyond belief that such a great man can have remained unknown to so many for so long.
As the old saying goes: "the truth eventually will out"
I first found him through his reporting on modern slavery still legal in African countries.
Yes indeed, as a young individual I'm glad I'd discovered Mr.THOMAS SOWELL I have a better Mindset because of him. 🖖
He has been very well known for a long time thiugh
Wow ,:" people are not equal to themselves in different stages of life " what a simple yet undeniable fact ...
One of best quotes I've heard
You didn't already know that fact?
SO true but never mentioned in public discourse.
THIS was SUCH a hilariously brilliant rhetort by Thomas Sowell😂👍🏾
Imagine if high schools and/or colleges taught classes on the "Thomas Sowell Doctrine". First of all, it would be a proper tribute to a great man and second, we would have a army of clear and logical thinkers that would serve and strengthen the country for decades.
Exactly why the left are teaching CRT and gender identity studies. Keep people dumbed down to keep the insanely greedy and power hungry in control. If people start thinking for themselves and employing critical thinking skills that used to be taught in school, but now people are taught what to think not how to think, this country would again flourish and righteousness would rule and those currently in power would lose their shirts as well as their seats of power. That's why America has been "dumbed" down. We must teach our children, their children and future generations HOW TO THINK AND NOT WHAT TO THINK. REMOVE YOUR CHILDREN FROM PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND DO NOT SEND THEM TO UNIVERSITY IF YOU WANT A WELL ROUNDED ADULT.
there are no "skewed distributions" in nature regarding the material conditions of existence. In a population of monkeys, you do not find one with a billion bananas while others have to get by with only half a banana. No natural capabilities justify one person having billions while others struggle to get by. Even if there were such justification, why does society have to be based on natural capabilities for which we have no control over? They are either the result of the accident of birth or are socially acquired. The first one is irrelevant to the organization of a civilized society and the second justifies social change. Furthermore, any talk about "capabilities" as the only factor in social economic disparities ignores the many social benefits received by the "capable" on their road to success. Why is it that almost every foundational industry in the United States has been subsidized, protected by tariffs, received massive tax cuts, a skilled labor force, adequate infrastructure? Did these social factors contribute to the success of the "capable"? Why would that be the case? Is "capability" really the whole story?
Thomas Sowell, you are an incredible intellectual who is very easy on the ears. Your logic and facts are clear for even the simplest person.
Thomas Sowell is a National Treasure.
It's not a coincidence that this great mind is not a main figure in academics today. Great mind, awesome human.
Thomas Sowell..... say no more. I cannot get tired of listening to one of the greatest minds.
I truly love Thomas Sowell. He is absolutely brilliant. He actually uses his mind and heart. May God continue to richly bless him.
Dr.Thomas Sowell is an American treasure.
God bless you Tom. You're still the best in the world.
I like to call him the GOAT! Greatest of all Time!
I have read multiple books by him. He is brilliant. I feel if we all read and understood his writings. Our society would benefit vastly.
The greatest thinker of our time. Thomas Sowell is a national hero.
Professor Sowell is kryptonite to the entire BLM movement.
Don't be absurd. BLM thrives with a vengeance...lol.
@@kevinboone2178 they are irrelevant now.
Where was he during the Civil Rights movement. I would have love to see him debate Malcom X, James Baldwin. Two Successful black men that accomplished many great things,would be very interesting
@@sivaddavis2518 Would have been extraordinary........I am an admirer of both Malcolm X and James Baldwin........Mr. Baldwin in particular....I have viewed the the Baldwin/Buckley numerous times.....Mr. Baldwin was ‘The Fire’........He continues to be for those of us who have immersed ourselves in his history.....his works......his activism.....
@@valeriareed7234 Mr Baldwin was the truth!
It's nice to hear somebody articulate what is, or should be, obvious to everybody.
When you speak of "what should be" you're referencing dogma. As it's not "obvious" to me, which one should I follow, and why?
Oh dear God.. What an enlightened man Ms Sowell is.. I am so sorry that his books are not required reading at school
OK: I love this guy. Truly an American gem!
True and more than that, he's the USA's gift to the world. I hope more people find out about him.
@Thomas Sowell OK Dr Sowell: I'm in Castro Valley, Ca. Keep up the great work as your message is extremely valuable. Your ideas seem to validate much of the principals i stand for. Thanks, Mitch.
@Thomas Sowell OK Dr. Sowell: My cell # is and it would be a pleasure to hear from you ANYTIME !!!! Thanks for your consideration, Mitch
@Thomas Sowell Are you really trying to impersonate Thomas Sowell?
@@lrlforfun That’s clearly a fake account.
Thomas Sowell is an intellectually superior man. I love listening to him and I sincerely hope that many more (especially young people) will watch, listen and read his work. Wonderful man.
Thomas Sowell always puts mind blowing statements of wisdom in his talks and he always makes such difficult issues solvable with common sense resolutions.
Any aspiring leader today should be familiar with Thomas Sowell.
I’ve been reading Walter Williams and TS since I delivered the Chicago papers in 72 from my bicycle route .
The wisdom I received from you two has been a great blessing, TY.
I miss our friend Walter.
Please don’t die, Dr Sowell… I know it’s impossible , of course, but I just get afraid when another person who has this type of logic, wisdom and eloquent way of explaining his thoughts leaves this screwed up world…Dr Sowell can steer even the most ignoramus of a person into finally seeing things for what they really are… I know a lot of ignoramuses. God bless this man. Love him!
I advise you to be measured in your praise. Thomas Sowell is very astute in a great many fields, but he was an avid war mongerer in the 2000's and a proponent of the expanding police state. Praise the ideas, not the man.
I worked at the Federal Reserve for a few years. They don't even mention discrimination. Instead, they talk about equity. This allows them to work on fixing a problem, without even caring to find out what lead to the problem (assuming a problem even exists).

We are witnessing a living legend! May he and his message live forever!
Dr Sowell and those like him are heroes and sheroes. People who are brave enough to live honestly amaze me because these are very tough times for truth tellers. A conversation between Dr Sowell and Kwame Brown would light up the internet.
I think Mr. Brown would be intimidated by Dr. Sowell. Plus conservatism as we have understood the term over the last half-century is dead, as Donald Trump and his kind have infected it and 50% of the country with their abominations. At eternity dude will be erupting in flames at Riker's Island (NYC) and descending into hell and Satan's warm embrace. God don't like ugly.
Always wonderful to find a Sowell interview I haven't seen before.
Love this channel. You're doing amazing work.
More to come!
How come I never heard of Thomas Sowell during school? He seem really important and insightful
Actually, he has never been recognized by liberal black intellectuals and black media. His positions and works don't fit the political narrative they wanna tell. Thats the biggest reason the black community suffers from so much "pluralistic ignorance." Ebony magazine a popular black population has "never" mentioned Dr Sowell or Walter Williams as influential black people.
@@bromack3 A fact which I continue to find both depressing and unsurprising.
Of all people to suppress, Thomas Sowell. A man who can prove his positions with examples and data.
Did you learn about the Gulags? Or the Kulaks? There’s a reason things are intentionally not taught
@@chunksloth2746 or read Solshynitsen.. sp?
Always a joy to listen to this man speak! This is what our children should be hearing and learning.
Mr. Sowell said, “Blessings do not get votes, unfulfilled wishes do.”
WOW!
He really has a way of opening people's eyes doesn't he?
Very true, we tend to assume the blessings and gripe about the disappointments.
@@BasicEconomics indeed!
@@comesahorseman God, help our unbelief!
Dr. Sowell
Thomas Sowell will quickly be regarded as the bravest and most prophetic of intellectual giants in the last century. A real polymath ,and fearless truth teller
I heard of Thomas Sowell some time ago and... I'm ashamed to say that I've never read his books.
Listening to this man speak leads me to believe him to be a sort of national treasure. He's an amazing and brave thinker and speaker... I'm eager to read his work.
Thomas SOWELL is phenomenal.

I wonder why this man's point of view has you so moist?
Oh....wait....lol
Sheep let everyone move them.
Just tell them what they want to hear.
Its nearly a crime not teaching his research of over 60 years in colleges..

@@bromack3 what a shame ,a loss for all especially worse off people ,imagine him ( black professor, started with handicap surely) telling people that they are treated as means to an end ,basically for liberals to score votes and "moral" points ,instead of woke intelligentsia telling em that they are victims of a little more fortunate people
@@bromack3 well said and I agree 100 percent....... Also Dr. Shelby Steele. In fact Walt Williams is a classic liberal and look at how much sense he makes..
I, luv listening to Thomas Sowell, the ‘voice’ of reason.
“A fool can put on his coat better than a wise man can put it on for him”

@@jeremiahsams2848 That is not true. We don't preform surgery upon ourselves, we instead seek the help of highly educated doctors. I like most people I know, don't make my own clothes, I can't do as efficient and skillful a job as the factory workers in China, Malaysia and Italy can. I didn't put the new roof on my house, I hired experienced roofers to do it. I can't do a good job at cutting my own hair. I seek out the services of a good licensed barber.

I am 58 and my only wish is that I discovered Thomas Sowell much earlier in my life. Such a clear thinker. Absolutely brilliant.
So grateful Mr Sowell's making himself available for these enlightening interviews. Best way to get his name and thoughts in front of the masses. 🙏🏻
This was a great talk with Professor Sole, a true soul brother for humanity.
Thank you for continuing to present Mr. Sowell and his more-than-common thinking and sensibilities.
I wonder if Thomas Sowell is done writing books. Love his literature.
I think he will have stuff coming out after he's gone...

I only wish our politicians, acadamians, and journalists shared my opinion.
Thanks. I wish Thomas Sowell a long and healthy life. I am simply grateful.

THOMAS SOWELL = AMERICAN PATRIOT (and of the first order)
He's brilliant and patriotic. I'm liberal (a social democrat, just to the right of Bernie Sanders) but I respect Thomas Sowell. I agree with him that critical race theory is racist itself, not pseudo- intelligent but it's too simplistic and extreme for me to believe it!
What a good boy!
I really like quote by Margaret Thatcher "I am a conservative because the facts of life are conservative "
@left-wing monkeylord I am listening. What scientific fact is there in evolution? You kind soul have far greater faith in your religion of something coming from nothing, goo to you, than any of the other religions I currently lnow.
In Charles Darwin's own works he stated if by the time hundreds of thousands of fossils are found, hundreds of transitioning species should be found or his theory would be incorrect. Well....not one transitioning fossil has been found. What was proven by Darwin is that WITHIN A SPECIES variations such as the size of a birds bill occurs. You may wish to keep current, as Lucy and others were all discovered to be fraudulent.
I am wishing you success in searching and finding the truth for yourself verses simply accepting someone else's ideology.
@@nancymarihart1835 what exactly is the religion of “something coming from nothing, goo to you” called. I’ve never heard of a religion described in that way. I’ve also never heard of anyone claiming that something came from nothing. If there was in fact “nothing” than wouldn’t that make it something? If someone is saying something came from nothing, what they are really saying is something came from something which I would hope you would acknowledge to be true.
@@conadslv Clearly you are not in the sciences and need to do more reading.
@left-wing monkeylord And most far left looney toons promote communism. Communism is supposed to be based on scientific facts.... and you see how that has worked out.
@@nancymarihart1835 and it’s pretty obvious you aren’t either, so what’s your point?
Thomas Sowell is a GIANT among men in regards to intellect. *G.O.A.T.*
Sowell is CRIMINALLY underrated in American society today.
That passage Dr. Sowell quoted at the end should be required memorization for everyone in the country.
I agree! Also nice to hear him read one of his own books!
we have a question are ppl really fussing and defending no voter ID requirement, election integrity is a must, voter ID is a perfect requirement
Thomas Sowell perspectives should be apart of the educational curriculums taught through k-12 vs critical race theory. Hopefully, the children will have a strong educational foundation to be independent thinkers and protected from liberal indoctrinations in life and/or college. It’s a blessing to see men, especially Black men that never gave up on “PROPERLY” educating our community!
Tom Sowell is quite possibly the smartest man alive, and quite certainly the most honest. I wish Tom would run for president. Thank you Dr. Sowell
This guy's brain just does not slow down
Minimum wage stopped my father from being able to grow his business. He needed workers but could not get off the ground with only being able to hire just two people. You can’t slave people to death to try and climb the ladder. If he could hire those that was willing to make a little extra and yet hire more hands he could have been able to fulfill the orders that came in. It was so stressful that he ended up shutting down his dreams and went back to work for a big corporation that is already established. Talk about horrible seeing my father strive and make something from nothing and turn it into something that people wanted and yet couldn’t fulfill the demands due to govt policies stopping him. It’s sad that the economy has become hijacked and rigged by those that want to dictate what is okay and who is the system and who is not. It goes against the very Constitution and our God given rights. You cannot allow laws regulations and codes take a God given right and turn into a privilege that the wolves in sheep’s clothing can take away. They use the chaos use the hardships of life and use it to create laws which are false securities that take our civil liberties away. Time we stood up and said enough is enough and put those at the top in check cause they work for us they serve us and they take an oath of office and if they continue to shit on the constitution and act like a damn tyrannical regime and pretend to be this good guy while selling us out then we have no choice but to remove them and replace them with those that will stand up and do the right thing and fight the good fight. If not we will witness a civil war and or worse the fall of America to our enemies.
I need to read every single book Thomas Sowell has written.
Sowell's books are pure crap. His books are full of conjecture and imagination...which he tries to pass off as facts.
@@thomasreaves588 im new to Economics, which statements from his books do you find fault with specifically? And which books on Economics would you recommend?
Great plan! Get started here amzn.to/3y9EjCB
I'm going to read as much of his works as I can.
Money doesn’t fix everything. “Reparations”are usually “monetary” in nature. There are more needs than materialistic needs. Thank you, Professor Sowell.
I was a home care nurse. I have been in very poor homes and yet their TV was 6ft by 5ft and completely overwhelmed the room
Thank God intelligent human beings still exist.
Mr. Sowell = Truth ❣️
Imagine the title of his next book ''What Happened To Common Decency''.
That would be freakin' amazing!
It is not so much that slavery was experienced elsewhere and is simply a given.....The focus is of slavery in America and how it was handled........Dr King spoke to it and it lasting affects........Also, Dr. King spoke in interview as to how the stigmatization of Native Black American originated and brought about severely adverse experiences for The Native Black American in America and as they travelled. The focus is always reparations for slavery....... Always smoothed over.....Fine......Jim Crow should be the focus now.......54 to 58 years ago......there are Native Black Americans who are alive today who existed during Jim Crow.....Can speak to that time.......America has yet to make amends.......That oppressive and dangerous time should not be intellectualized away because something akin to that time may have or did happened in other parts of the world.........This is the focus of Jim Crow in America and the wrongdoings......the omissions.....the evils.......that transpired during the time and how the ghost of Jim Crow continues to linger.....
Mr. Sowell is absolutely right about his indebt history of slavery. We learn from the past so history will not repeat itself and move forward to be a better human being. DON'T use RACE to infuse HATRED and an excuse for your own failure. Where else outside of the US has black billionaires?????
World's richest black man is in Nigeria...en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_billionaires
Africa has more Black billionaires. Character and integrity are more important, which leaves out many billionaires. And do yourself a favor: Read the award-winning book, White Rage (2016), by Emory Univ. (Georgia) historian Carol Anderson, to understand why CRT and BLM exists. It reinforces, better than Dr. Sowell, why race-hatred is CRA-Z, immoral and unethical.

Thomas Sowell...one of the fruits of the manifold blessings of Republican liberty.
“A fool can put on his coat better than a wise man could put it on for him.”
People don’t need government officials, administrative bureaucrats and intellectuals telling them how to live.

The government needs people to need the politician and bureaucracies.
There so need to be some rules and regulations concerning how businesses and corporations do things or we will have more toxic train derailments and bank failures. Tragedy always follows deregulation.
Thomas Sowell needs to be in every Western Universities
Too me Professor Sowell is a very smart person, I agree with just about every thing he say.

I would argue that Ta Nehisi Coates should be writing a reparation check, right now, to those who are enslaved, today, in the United States.
Thomas Sowell has his head on right
Sowells, calls out the inability to think logically, vs emotional thinking is the underlying problem within the black underclass community
Its part of the entitlement mentality. I want it, because I want it and you have to give it to me. We're now looking at over 2 generations of the black community being part of the welfare economy.

@@laverledugger1563 So, you haven't read the the book yet then.
Thomas Sowell for President!!!!
“Intentions and what occurred “. My father drummed it in our heads. THINK AHEAD!
I was a democrat my whole life and have learned so much from this treasure of a mind I will never be able to vote democratic again
Congrats and well done!
The elites that make the rules never had to live under those rules and were never held accountable for their mistakes
Just boosting the algorithm.
Thanks for the boost!
Ive had a corner store in West Baltimore for 45 years. It is mostly a black community. Id say that 99% of the families live under a single parent or no parent. Two-parent households is an ultra-rarity and just as disturbing, almost everybody is on welfare. There are so many things wrong in these urban communities and its all directly caused by Democrat policies and programs. Schools are totally broken, drugs are sold without consequences, kids cant read or write, politicians are corrupt worse than ever. Our past 3 mayors stepped down in disgrace or criminally charged. Things never get better for a reason but people turn a blind eye because of all the free resources the gov gives them. It is modern day plantation where the gov gets bigger and bigger while our freedoms get smaller and smaller.
Lyndon Johnson claimed welfare would make crime and imprisonment unnecessary, for black men specifically. Civil rights was perhaps the most damaging act perpetrated against black Americans. Fathers and mothers are now baby daddys/mommas. Black academic IQ suffered as a result of integration by gunpoint.
I could listen to him (Sowell) speak all day long, and I have ....
If Sowell was required reading in our universities in place of (or even alongside) Karl Marx, I suspect the current cultural climate would look much different.
Yes and we would have a lot more happy, comfortable people who know they can achieve anything if they only put in the work. Happiness and a good attitude makes for a good quality of life and in the end that is what matters.
What makes Thomas Sowell influential is his indifference.
Why doesn't this live have a million watching?!?!?!
Not enough know about Thomas Sowell plus not enough care for the truth.
sadly today it has to be in tiktok shorts to get that level of attention.
Keep sharing these videos on this channel, we will get there and we will win the battle of ideas, there are so many young people watching this channel, it's very encouraging!
Thomas Sowell goes against the narrative pushed by leftists in the education system.
This man is 90 extremely experienced and intelligent. Imagine if people can live to 150! Knowledge would expand.
Being mistreated made me who I am. If you read books you'd find out why you're being mistreated. You'd learn things that expose the tyranny of the masses. Your view of the world would change. It's a blessing to be an outcast from society. Society is boring. Instead people fight for things that make no sense.
No growth without challenge
I just became familiar with a term called "pluralistic ignorance." Its kinda like everybody agrees with whats going on in the group because it feels far safer than being the one that says no. Just like white folk fear being called racist, black folk fear being called sellout, uncle tom or being accused of acting white.
I blame a lot of these fears on the liberals who like to use these tactics as a form of mind control. It works so well on black folk. Thats why black folk continue to vote democrat even though many are very conservative.... i.e... Republicans are racist so if you vote for them, then you are a sellout.
