    This is the absolute best discussion that I've heard coming from Cornel West. I have been listening to Dr. West all across the internet and some discussions were rambling and not pointed and accessible to many people. This was. This is exactly why I intend to vote for Dr. West. While I do not agree with some of his analysis concerning Russia and China, his moral and intellectual prowess are overwhelming and I must acknowledge how much better he is as a potential leader than anything on offer by the two major parties. I'm not worried that a vote for West might be construed as a vote for Trump. It isn't. It's a vote for honesty, for equality, for vision and for change. I cannot throw away what might become the very last free vote on a lesser of two evils like Biden. If I intend to fight for freedom, for democracy and for people like me then I have to stand up for principle. It's West for me if he's on the ballot and I will write his name in if he's not.

Can the West team get together to put together a platform where he goes around and gets his message out and actually implement policies that will hold the US accountable for the genocide and slavery by the US and provide spaces for the healing of the trauma inter-generationally. It's aHUGE thing.

I also want to thank you for spending time talking about LandBack. As a white settler on Treaty 1 territory, here in so-called Canada, I find this to be a consistent 'roadblock' in conversation, and I often struggle to find ways in which to further engage people, and help them to understand it beyond the white settler lens. This was really helpful. Much gratitude.

    Interesting discussion. I'm wondering if Brother West has investigated the pro-Israel loyalty oaths that half American states REQUIRE of their state contractors??? Glenn Greenwald wrote of this in a 2018 article on Palestinian-American speech pathologist Bahia Amawi. She, understandably, refused to sign and the Austin, Texas school district fired her. Why do American states REQUIRE American citizens/businesses to sign loyalty oaths to a FOREIGN apartheid state🤔??? How does THAT support the freedom/democracy of Americans???

The nefarious games they played, and covert machinations in USA, Inc and around the world, is slowly coming into the light and people are beginning to see who the real and True problem is. It's none of us who are rendered powerless by systems of 'wyt' soopremaC and colonialism. Soon, as the majority of European descended people start awakening from the American Dreaming, it will completely collapse and fall into the abyss it sprang from. Asè and Ha Ho!

    I like the knowledge of Cornell West when it come to American history. The original draft of the Constitution stated that it would protect private property (you know whose private property) and to look after the interests of the wealthy landowners and slave holders. That did not go over well with the poorer landowners and Shays Rebellion happened in which the private armies of the wealthy beat them back. After the introduction of the Bill of Rights, most people were placated.

    • @robertmarmaduke186

      Private property rights (and the Gutenberg press) ended the Dark Ages of 1,000 Years, during which the Crown and the Pope owned all property and thought. You were born a serf and died a serf and if you resisted, you were killed along with your extended family. Everything you have today, great or small, comes from private property and free thought.
      Was only after Mao's horrific reparations and land seizure genocides, that China turned back to private property and mercantilism and money and trade, that saved their nation. The Left will lead us from the frying pan of the usury banks, into the fire of open anarchy, and 100 examples, all the internecine slaughters throughout the last thousands of years.

All American Presidential hopefuls need to prioritise Tribal Sovereignty and reconfiguring institutions around a healthy system. Massive bribes will confront them anyway. Without a plan in this direction it is hard to believe even the most educated viewpoints. I didn't realise he was a Christian - that's a big red flag - the naughty red. He still seems the most promising but more ought to be demanded. The Colonial Elites appear to entertain hitting the world war button.

    Dr. Cornell West is simply a brilliant man, but he also is a man of outstanding music taste. The poster of John Coltrane albums behind him is an indication of this and I as a music lover have most of them albums.

    Growing up a Catholic and in a time when liberation theology was more popular than today, I recognize the importance of soul in resisting the dehumanizing nature of modern day life and the systems of alienation we try to exist in. Nonetheless, I view the Abrahamic religions as part of the problem. These three main religions fit themselves very well to conquest and genocide. There is all this nonsense about chosen people and promised lands in the scriptures. And then there is the idea that your god is the true god and the rest of the world needs converting to your vision, because they're heathens. Personally, now, I feel spiritual only with nature as the god-ness. I guess being among rocks and plants and animals comes close to what people feel in a church, mosque or synagogue The land is sustenace for my body and mind. There is no duopoly of mind and matter and Nature is not about one dominating another or being better than another, it is about balance.

    Nobody is talking about Harvard's $50,000,000,000.00 endowment, which makes Harvard University the wealthiest university in the World! This is the main reason why the people giving Harvard all of that endowment money doesn't want Black people attending Harvard University, or Harvard having a Black female President as its executive, period, yo, word!

      Despite antisemitism being a primarily European ideology others keep getting pinned with the title.
