6:22 There was a notorious slave Bible issued in 1807 by a London Bible society for use in the West Indies. Anything that might inspire slaves to rebel was removed, particularly the Book of Exodus.
Holland's gotta be the smartest person I've ever heard take metaphors too literally, and take heuristics as absolutes.
Just started listening: re his point at about 5:50, this is something Theodor W. Adorno, a German Jewish sociologist and philosopher who fled Hitler's Germany to the USA, explicitly claims in both Minima Moralia and Negative Dialectics. He writes that, in the wake of the Holocaust, "a new categorical imperative has been imposed by Hitler upon unfree mankind: to arrange their thoughts and actions so that Auschwitz will not repeat itself, so that nothing similar will happen."
Holland is describing how dialectic works - that which is ostensibly opposite, draws heavily on that which it appears to oppose.

My life calling is based on Martin Luther King’s calling.
Nice talk
Yeah but music plays a major role, intertwined with culture and vibes, with EVERYTHING, except for during the occasional decade (like recently) when everyone temporarily becomes too autistic to process normal emotions for some reason. (Shock of technological change?)
So again, the music and ideas circulating in the culture weren't, and aren't such a monolith as suggested, by Tom Archduke of the Netherlands, who is lead singer of my punk band and still sounds great tbh.
