Which there is ample evidence our education system has systematically failed to do. If you don't provide support to those children who need it you are not enabling them to succeed, so you are failing in your duty to genuinely provide opportunities. It's a bit like saying all you have to do is leave the door open even if there are steps leading up to the door - if you don't provide a ramp then you aren't actually providing a way in for wheel chair users.

Descendant Travels yeah he shouldn’t be given a voice. Personally I’d enslave him and put him to work on the fields. Unfortunately white people have become weak and allow morons like this a voice.
This guy is a professor at Birmingham university. It is a disgrace that he is allowed to take part in the education of our children when he has so many objectionable opinions. I am truly worried by the indoctrination of our children taking part in education imparted by prejudiced academics such as this guy. It is particularly painful knowing that my hard earnt income bears tax that in part is used to pay his salary and pension contributions. He is a disgrace and should not be given a public platform. He is a disgrace to academics. It's particularly galling knowing that my own children never got to Oxford yet I know there is positive discrimination to ensure that many BAME people get to go there and no doubt graduate and go on to criticise this country. If you don't like this country you are free to leave. This guy came from the Caribbean and I wish he'd go back there and stop misleading our children
Britain's entire existence is funded on the exploitation & the bounty of the British empire. So sending people back to where they came from would hold once Britain paid reparations to each single former colony as well as for each genocide that served as the pillars the empire's success is built on to this day
I might be inspired to do so, if you instruct the Jewish collective to return every billion collected in reparations for the jewish holocaust and instead "get on with it". Many black people (myself included) would be forever inspired if you could indeed prove that reparations are a trivial and unimportant gesture via the descendants of Jewish holocaust survivors and anyone of that faith. Putting your words into action in order to provide empirical prove of the EASE with which you utter them could be the beginning of a powerful movement. As long as these words remain nothing but syllables they remain powerless.
What is "English" identity? If a Polish man from Poland migrates to London, has children born in London, they are English. If an Indian man from India migrates to London, has children born in London, they are also English. Or are you telling me, they are only British Indian? Because of their skin colour they are not English? British Indian would refer to the man who was born in India...the child born in the UK is English. The English identity is not disappearing.

@@mern2974 Indeed, he's found a niche for himself in the mental world of race relations. Of course he's going to keep stirring up the hornet's nest, he gets a living out of it...and, gets to pretend he's an academic too. When clearly he's not in any true definition of the word.
Dr Andrews. You say the education system isn’t for black people but you yourself studied in Britain and from that education. You became a Professor. Seriously? With such “facts.” How can you say that education doesn’t benefit black people? Race bailing at its finest.
It's not about one individual. Statistically speaking, yes, there will be POC people graduating, thats just a numbers game.... but you need to look at the whole picture. Academia is racist. Its incredibly hard for POC to reach the same level of success as our white counterparts. E.g. from the top of my head, the stats are that even though there are so many talented and I daresay better POC research scientists, POC researchers represent less than 1% of professors or obtain the top job in their department...I've literally noticed this in my department. Most of its run by incompetent, loud, boastful, racist, sexist, rich and entitled WHITE men. While some very hard working Indians or Chinese will be easily dismissed yet work beyond 9 to 5 and give their 110%. Thats literally just 1 example. I can write an entire thesis dissertation.
The guy claims to know black history. He only ever talks about the white man enslaving black people. First comment- it was black people that enslaved black people firstly using their slaves as commodities to the Arabian slave trade for profit which I may add used to castrate black slaves so they wouldn’t be able to breed. Second- it wasn’t the British that started the European part of the slave trade it was the Portuguese, Britain at a later got involved to our shame but at no point did any European nation go to Africa hunting people to enslave. They were sold by African rulers who got incredibly rich by the trade. Third- Britain was the ONLY country in the world to abolish the slave trade enforcing all other nations to follow suit. If it wasn’t for the British enforcing this horrible act with its naval might the trade may have gone for decades longer. It is absolutely right to teach black history in schools to show the strength of the black community and the part the played but in doing so you have to teach it correctly. White people and certainly not the British were to blame for the slave trade. It was actually African rulers wanting realising how fast they could get rich that was to blame along with Arabians. Teach it correct or don’t teach it at all, hate only begets hate. This guy is a clear racist toward white people
@@TH-kt5ir Don't be such a bigot. Of course whites aren't going to see and experience prejudice like blacks do, doesn't make a white person's opinion invalid.
Bene Dictus sorry I misinterpreted what they said as I believe that teachers today are too scared to be called racist and sexist so therefore treat black children and Females differently
Deedless Deity he didn't frame it that way at all...ur argument is a red herring... u framed it that way because u hate hearing the truth about the tru purposes of colonialism. Empires are supposed to run on automatic. England couldn't possibly control all the land and people from the lands it colonized so education was indeed used as a way to control those peoples. To pretend this isn't true or better yet a smart strategy for an empire to remain an empire is retarded.

Are we more racist or less racist than the Chinese Communist party that has over a million Muslims locked up in concentration camps and are harvesting their organs and forcing them to drink alcohol for the first time to break them, or does human rights women's rights and gay rights work better in Iran than it does in Liverpool or London?
Britain is institutional racist and in denial . They don't want to address thier deep rooted hatred and you can see the divisions and segregation in the UK, we can see multiculturalism is a disaster.
Why doesn't this man move to Zimbabwe. The former Rhodesia was the breadbasket of Africa. It had Mineral's , tourism agriculture. When they gained independence the British didn't take all that away it was all there to be utilized but what happened they reduced it to a pile of shit within 40 years. Same thing is going down in South Africa, its taken the ANC party 26 years to nearly destroy what took 350 years to build, the whole public sector is bankrupt. What about somewhere like Ethiopia that was never colonized how well did they do during the 80's? Infrastructure could have saved all those people during the famine.
@Venture Forth no, that's what he 'teaches'. A course he made up him himself. You should watch one of his lectures. So one-note, one-sided and flawed it defies belief. It's actually disgusting that he gets to teach this stuff. It's pure indoctrination. I saw one video (not a lecture but a speech he was giving somewhere) of him calling white people the devil. It was met with a rapturous round of applause.

Genocide, slavery, colonialism? What of those is part of the present? What of those was fought and abolished and condemned for all future generations? Why do hateful people like him live in the past and never leave it? Name the countries without racism, without genocide, without genocide you love so much, and name those which still have 'em
MI5 and the CIA have literally staged 50 coups and murders of democractically elected leaders of countries in the Southern Hemisphere in the last 80 years so I would hardly call the days of colonialism, genocide and slavery over. Also we’ve propped up many genocidal / murderous regimes from Pinochet to Netanyahu 60/70’s to today And all basically for strategic control of oil reserves or other related things
The racism he's talking about is called mythology. It's imagined. You're a big bad meanie because there isn't perfect equality of outcome. Maybe it's your culture that puts gang banging, hand outs, single motherhood, and complaining at the heart of it all. You won't hear any Singaporeans or Indians calling the English today racist - why? Because when colonialism ended, they got over it, moved on, and worked hard for themselves. Institutional racism is a thing of the past. You feeling like the system is against you is not the same as the system being against you. This guy makes huge accusations "Britain is built of all these awful things and racism is in our DNA" and doesn't back it up. The way the world works is that the determined entrepreneur wins, and whilst morally today we see colonialism as bad, at the time it was enterprise; exploitation wasn't a sin then. People saw opportunity and took it. Maybe if the rest of the world spent less time fighting their own people it would be Somalia in charge, but that's not what has happened. It's not racist to value A levels above Btecs. It's racist to call white brits colonialists. This guy lives for victimhood because it's a currency that can be traded for exorbitant privileges. He's an apologist for the failings of the unsuccessful minorities in Britain - have you noticed how the only "oppressed" minorities are the ones with the worst cultural attitudes, highest single motherhood, and most benefit seeking? You don't see many Pakistani people pulling the race card, because their culture values education and personal responsibility. And yet somehow the system is racist? The system values hard work, education, and entrepreneurship. I dare you, find someone me who has got an education, and not had children out of wedlock who is poor - you won't find one.
my theory is that black people in particular have a deep seated insecurity. They grow up in a white society and are exposed to a western education system which places great emphasis on white ingenuity and innovation. they see a lack of black achievement and this creates feelings of self hatred and hatred of white society this is what results in this common trope ' racism is everywhere' essentially a subconsious belief that white people are more intellgient and thus they are racist ( racist in the sense they think they are superior).

@@wedongo We may have owned slaves back in the day but at least we didn't sell our own people, which is exactly what Africa did when they sold slaves to Britain and America. Every major nation has low points in their history, normally involving slavery, but at least it isn't perpetuated in Western countries anymore. It's a shame I can't say the same for Africa and the Middle East, who still have slaves even now.
I went to my daughter's graduation ceremony at the University of East London last week. At least 80% of those receiving doctorates, masters degrees and bachelor honours degrees were students of colour - and mostly from African heritage. This in large part reflected the local London population. Black people who wish to aspire to achieve in higher education seem to be doing so. I have also read studies which suggest that children of black /mixed race backgrounds from working class areas are more likely to go on to higher education than white children in the UK. I'm not suggesting British education is perfect in respect of race, but there has been improvement, without doubt.
National interests like Brexit , school interest and every interest sometimes must be protected if It's really urgent to take in. Everything will be better from where you stand to look the kindness. 🇬🇧🌹
Paulo Freire argued that education designed to foster a critical analysis of societal inequity is essential for members of subordinated groups to reclaim their full humanity and resist their oppression.
This man has said when questioned about his own privelage and thr inherent oppression he causes as an upper class scholar that he would not give it up because he has a mortgage and kids. He advocates for radicalism but admits he is unwilling to participate. Whilst there are strong points to be made from the idea of blacks being oppressed this man goes much too far advocating for ethno politics. He is very sleezy in my opinion.
He is such an expert on how hard it is to be black that he got a highly paid post as a university professor in 'black studies' so that he could teach other black people with a chip on their shoulder how to make a career out of moaning about how tough it is to be black. It must be a hard life.
Ah yes, because black studies does not study the history, sociology etc of black people just like most of the western university’s colleges do with white people. I am embarrassed for you

England as a country is over 1000 years old, similarly for Scotland and Wales. The Union of England and Wales is 500 years old at least. There was a Union of Crowns with Scotland near 400 years ago and political union over 300 years ago. It shows a complete ignorance of history and a mindset that sees everything due to racism, to make as ridiculous a statement as the country was built on/ founded on genocide and racism.
His talk was rubbish and I am black. Black people are not being oppressed by some system or racism. Your accountable for your actions. Black people need to make better decisions. This is a beautiful country. If its that bad leave. I am Black and never went to university and still become a success. Just work hard, obey the law and hang around positive people.

There are more black children going into higher education percentage wise that white. While there is around 3% black population in England 35 % going into higher education compare to 33 % white. There is a 'quota system' in every company where they must employ a non white person. On telly there are more non white people in the adverts (yet they make about 3% population) there are more and more black celebrities, newsreporters, newsreaders, and more importantly more black politicians now then ever.

When a poll reveals that most British people are proud of the British Empire, then Dr Andrews is right - British education perpetuates racism www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/british-people-are-proud-of-colonialism-and-the-british-empire-poll-finds-a6821206.html My generation was not taught in schools about the murder of indigenous peoples in the Americas, Caribbean and Oceania. We are taught how the British "civilised" other countries but not that India had a better GDP before the colonialists arrived than when they left. We still have people patronisingly banging on about Britain banning slavery but failing to point out it was them who enslaved millions for centuries. William Wilberforce? Everyone hears lots of nice things about him, but not that he was involved in the Sierra Leone Company, running Sierra Leone as a crown colony and keeping Africans enslaved for up to 14 years as "apprentices" www.theguardian.com/uk/2010/aug/02/wilberforce-condoned-slavery-files-claim The evidence is there but the cognitive dissonance of a people that believes it got rich and powerful through sheer jolly-hockey-sticks niceness and fair play means the false narrative of the crimes of the British Empire will not be fully recognised in the UK education system.
It isn't surprising, should Italians not be proud of Ancient Rome, Mongolians not proud of the Mongol Empire, Turks not proud of the Ottoman. We are tribal by nature so it is not altogether surprising we are proud of our tribe (country) being successful!

No doubt, the British Empire schooled past leaders who gained independence for their respective nations. And it continues to school future leaders who speak in the British accent and tow the British line. It churns out the same type of leader whether he/she is from Africa, Asia, Middle East and other parts of the former British Empire. Education is soft power, the non violent way to educate the very same peoples, our former masters viewed as heathen and beyond civilising. I fail to see one positve contribution that the British Empire gave to the Somalis it previously semi ruled, in Northern Somalia. The British Empire, actually encouraged clan rivalries, it built little or no type of infrastructure, it failed and tried to envangelise a homogenous nation to Christianity and heavily bombed a national resistance to forced subjugation. Oh I forgot, the English Language was taught to us as a means to churn out the very same 'English fellows' that rule Britain today. The same individuals who will continue to rule and be produced on an eduational conveyor belt; the Anglican, blond, blue eyed, tall, silver spooned wackos. And it will continue to use the same type of people (indentured workers) it previously utilised in Empire, to put us Black people in our place.

It's a bit like saying all you have to do is leave the door open even if there are steps leading up to the door - if you don't provide a ramp then you aren't actually providing a way in for wheel chair users.
“everyone has equal opportunities from the beginning” right so that’s why private schools exist then

This guy is a professor at Birmingham university. It is a disgrace that he is allowed to take part in the education of our children when he has so many objectionable opinions. I am truly worried by the indoctrination of our children taking part in education imparted by prejudiced academics such as this guy. It is particularly painful knowing that my hard earnt income bears tax that in part is used to pay his salary and pension contributions. He is a disgrace and should not be given a public platform. He is a disgrace to academics. It's particularly galling knowing that my own children never got to Oxford yet I know there is positive discrimination to ensure that many BAME people get to go there and no doubt graduate and go on to criticise this country. If you don't like this country you are free to leave. This guy came from the Caribbean and I wish he'd go back there and stop misleading our children
Yeah - sounds like you prefer indoctrination of a different kind...
Britain's entire existence is funded on the exploitation & the bounty of the British empire. So sending people back to where they came from would hold once Britain paid reparations to each single former colony as well as for each genocide that served as the pillars the empire's success is built on to this day

I might be inspired to do so, if you instruct the Jewish collective to return every billion collected in reparations for the jewish holocaust and instead "get on with it". Many black people (myself included) would be forever inspired if you could indeed prove that reparations are a trivial and unimportant gesture via the descendants of Jewish holocaust survivors and anyone of that faith. Putting your words into action in order to provide empirical prove of the EASE with which you utter them could be the beginning of a powerful movement. As long as these words remain nothing but syllables they remain powerless.

English identity is seriously under attack from every direction.
That’s the idea ...that’s what these Marxists want
Can you explain English identity for me? In my eyes the English identity started to vanish in the late 19th century.
I'm not English btw.
The505Guys when was England founded
What is "English" identity?
If a Polish man from Poland migrates to London, has children born in London, they are English.
If an Indian man from India migrates to London, has children born in London, they are also English. Or are you telling me, they are only British Indian? Because of their skin colour they are not English? British Indian would refer to the man who was born in India...the child born in the UK is English.

Well done for adding absolutely no value to any of the points you were trying to make!
Dr Andrews. You say the education system isn’t for black people but you yourself studied in Britain and from that education. You became a Professor. Seriously? With such “facts.” How can you say that education doesn’t benefit black people? Race bailing at its finest.
The man specifically addressed your point yet you still somehow missed it?
It's not about one individual. Statistically speaking, yes, there will be POC people graduating, thats just a numbers game.... but you need to look at the whole picture. Academia is racist. Its incredibly hard for POC to reach the same level of success as our white counterparts. E.g. from the top of my head, the stats are that even though there are so many talented and I daresay better POC research scientists, POC researchers represent less than 1% of professors or obtain the top job in their department...I've literally noticed this in my department. Most of its run by incompetent, loud, boastful, racist, sexist, rich and entitled WHITE men. While some very hard working Indians or Chinese will be easily dismissed yet work beyond 9 to 5 and give their 110%. Thats literally just 1 example. I can write an entire thesis dissertation.
The guy claims to know black history. He only ever talks about the white man enslaving black people. First comment- it was black people that enslaved black people firstly using their slaves as commodities to the Arabian slave trade for profit which I may add used to castrate black slaves so they wouldn’t be able to breed. Second- it wasn’t the British that started the European part of the slave trade it was the Portuguese, Britain at a later got involved to our shame but at no point did any European nation go to Africa hunting people to enslave. They were sold by African rulers who got incredibly rich by the trade. Third- Britain was the ONLY country in the world to abolish the slave trade enforcing all other nations to follow suit. If it wasn’t for the British enforcing this horrible act with its naval might the trade may have gone for decades longer.
It is absolutely right to teach black history in schools to show the strength of the black community and the part the played but in doing so you have to teach it correctly. White people and certainly not the British were to blame for the slave trade. It was actually African rulers wanting realising how fast they could get rich that was to blame along with Arabians. Teach it correct or don’t teach it at all, hate only begets hate. This guy is a clear racist toward white people

Deedless Deity he didn't frame it that way at all...ur argument is a red herring... u framed it that way because u hate hearing the truth about the tru purposes of colonialism. Empires are supposed to run on automatic. England couldn't possibly control all the land and people from the lands it colonized so education was indeed used as a way to control those peoples. To pretend this isn't true or better yet a smart strategy for an empire to remain an empire is retarded.

And all basically for strategic control of oil reserves or other related things
The racism he's talking about is called mythology. It's imagined. You're a big bad meanie because there isn't perfect equality of outcome. Maybe it's your culture that puts gang banging, hand outs, single motherhood, and complaining at the heart of it all. You won't hear any Singaporeans or Indians calling the English today racist - why? Because when colonialism ended, they got over it, moved on, and worked hard for themselves. Institutional racism is a thing of the past. You feeling like the system is against you is not the same as the system being against you. This guy makes huge accusations "Britain is built of all these awful things and racism is in our DNA" and doesn't back it up. The way the world works is that the determined entrepreneur wins, and whilst morally today we see colonialism as bad, at the time it was enterprise; exploitation wasn't a sin then. People saw opportunity and took it. Maybe if the rest of the world spent less time fighting their own people it would be Somalia in charge, but that's not what has happened. It's not racist to value A levels above Btecs. It's racist to call white brits colonialists. This guy lives for victimhood because it's a currency that can be traded for exorbitant privileges. He's an apologist for the failings of the unsuccessful minorities in Britain - have you noticed how the only "oppressed" minorities are the ones with the worst cultural attitudes, highest single motherhood, and most benefit seeking? You don't see many Pakistani people pulling the race card, because their culture values education and personal responsibility. And yet somehow the system is racist? The system values hard work, education, and entrepreneurship. I dare you, find someone me who has got an education, and not had children out of wedlock who is poor - you won't find one.
my theory is that black people in particular have a deep seated insecurity. They grow up in a white society and are exposed to a western education system which places great emphasis on white ingenuity and innovation. they see a lack of black achievement and this creates feelings of self hatred and hatred of white society this is what results in this common trope ' racism is everywhere' essentially a subconsious belief that white people are more intellgient and thus they are racist ( racist in the sense they think they are superior).

We may have owned slaves back in the day but at least we didn't sell our own people, which is exactly what Africa did when they sold slaves to Britain and America. Every major nation has low points in their history, normally involving slavery, but at least it isn't perpetuated in Western countries anymore. It's a shame I can't say the same for Africa and the Middle East, who still have slaves even now.
I went to my daughter's graduation ceremony at the University of East London last week. At least 80% of those receiving doctorates, masters degrees and bachelor honours degrees were students of colour - and mostly from African heritage. This in large part reflected the local London population. Black people who wish to aspire to achieve in higher education seem to be doing so. I have also read studies which suggest that children of black /mixed race backgrounds from working class areas are more likely to go on to higher education than white children in the UK. I'm not suggesting British education is perfect in respect of race, but there has been improvement, without doubt.
National interests like Brexit , school interest and every interest sometimes must be protected if It's really urgent to take in. Everything will be better from where you stand to look the kindness. 🇬🇧🌹

When a poll reveals that most British people are proud of the British Empire, then Dr Andrews is right - British education perpetuates racism www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/british-people-are-proud-of-colonialism-and-the-british-empire-poll-finds-a6821206.html
My generation was not taught in schools about the murder of indigenous peoples in the Americas, Caribbean and Oceania. We are taught how the British "civilised" other countries but not that India had a better GDP before the colonialists arrived than when they left. We still have people patronisingly banging on about Britain banning slavery but failing to point out it was them who enslaved millions for centuries. William Wilberforce? Everyone hears lots of nice things about him, but not that he was involved in the Sierra Leone Company, running Sierra Leone as a crown colony and keeping Africans enslaved for up to 14 years as "apprentices" www.theguardian.com/uk/2010/aug/02/wilberforce-condoned-slavery-files-claim
The evidence is there but the cognitive dissonance of a people that believes it got rich and powerful through sheer jolly-hockey-sticks niceness and fair play means the false narrative of the crimes of the British Empire will not be fully recognised in the UK education system.
It isn't surprising, should Italians not be proud of Ancient Rome, Mongolians not proud of the Mongol Empire, Turks not proud of the Ottoman. We are tribal by nature so it is not altogether surprising we are proud of our tribe (country) being successful!

He wants to imagine we all hate him just to comfort his own failures in life.
he knows full well, he just cant talk about that because his entire career is built upon the self loathing and desire for self flagellation of white liberal academic elites who feel they must atone for their thought crimes. They want to be whipped, they have hired him to be their psycholigical dominatrix, they want him to spank them and say they are terrible.
In France we have a very different conception of meritocracy as you debating scholars at Oxford University : I am the one who graduated from 2 universities and passed the CAPES ( teaching competitive exam) and Vanessa Paradis who didn't even go to high school is granted tenure as a teacher and gets my salaries ! But that's all my fault : my parents came from a former french colony and I come from the french ghetto ! Not only does the french "Justice" doesn't do its job because I come from the ghetto but they also open the doors to all kinds of discriminations . This IS institutional and uncomplexed RACISM ! They're perpetuating the privileges of the 1% but they are also fabricating terrorists !
A lot of the comments here are whinging about the chip on his shoulder, moaning , etc... But the reality is that, when a person of colour,
Ike myself grows up, & experiences daily racism, from the obvious, to the subtle .... we accept it’s part of british life.... and that’s a hard pattern of living to reverse out of...
And to the white supremecists dreaming of the good old days of white Britain.... invent that time machine, & never leave Britain to commit mass land theft, genocide, slavery... then you’ll have your white uk, & the rest of the world will be happy too
Before the BLM, could you please provide examples for how you would experience daily racism?
You definitely don't experience daily racism. Vast majority of it is in your pea brain head looking for ways to be the victim
"And to the white supremecists dreaming of the good old days of white Britain.... invent that time machine, & never leave Britain to commit mass land theft, genocide, slavery... then you’ll have your white uk, & the rest of the world will be happy too" 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Yes well said.
This guy ever visited any African countries? He has a stained hurt soul, pray for him. These types are ruining common sense. They have no idea what really goes on in the world.
he is an academic , perfectly fit for purpose
How much is Professor Kehinde Andrews paid per NHS seminar ?
paid for race baiting
This guy is nutts why cant they just let it go. Just look towards the future rather than dwelling on the past . Hes manufacturing hate
The point of school is to prepare future generations for the workforce.
Maybe this fella should go and live in Africa and see how he gets on!
just one falsehood after another. This guy is either dishonest to the bone, or just completely delusional.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHA
heh
HAHHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA
This guy is fucking insane. A professor??? WTF is happening. Unbelievable.
And look at your presidents in America 😂😂 you lot cannot talk.
when someone asks 'show me an example of racism' and you can only respond by saying 'such an such [pronoun] is racist' without explaining why you are not providing a legitimate argument. the truth is that blacks and whites areincredibly equal in the west.
When you started the slave trades against the blacks when in the world the black communities are subject to violent and racism in the world. When you kill black people simply to their race and skin colour and especially it happens in The USA. When In America a terrorist goes to a neighbour hood and kills as many blacks, Stephen Lawrence killed by Racists, George Floyd killed by a white police officer. The Windrush Scandal was that fake to?
@@Combat55 what are you on about ive stated anything to be fake, George Floyd was a despicable criminal and to use him to support your bs agenda is pathetic. To say that America is racist shows you have never been anywhere in the world. No one’s denying that the slave trade was a disgusting act, but you are using something that happened hundreds of years ago to try and reason you arguments today, it’s stupid.
youtube comments make me hopeful that perhaps the UK isn't yet totally lost
Did you ever ask yourself Dr. if there may be a reason for racism, and that may be people like you, your attitude certainly inspires me to reaffirm my racist views - perhaps you would be happy in mainland China. I would certainly be happier if you were there.
sorry did you just admit to being a racist simply bc one black man has “radical” views?? lmao i think you need to get your head checked mate
Comment section supports his assertions.
Opinion.
Bob Marley was not Black by the way Professor!!!!
I just don't understand how this guy became a professor. Also, aren't debates about providing arguments rather than elaborate but empty assertions?
Smarter than most of the top white professors that's why he always gets air time

Why has Singapore built a great country since independence. They have had the same time as most African countries. Maybe african blaming whites is wearing thin.
Is this guy bi-racial im seeing something in him that maybe...anyone know...
You will find many mixed race people like this trying to prove how black they are, its sad really.
This guy speaks the truth and of course he's hated for it
its not the truth, you just like it because you think it excuses you for your failures in life.
the more "ethnic" and "diverse" britain becomes, the more racist she becomes ..
go figure
The more of a shit whole it becomes
i’m pretty sure it was more racist while it was completely white
Britain is not more ethnic or diverse and segregated and divided and UK cities and towns only the sell outs mix out of thier race .
Brilliant speech, insightful
Dumb racist
If you are living in 1930s Germany
is it,though?
Man should be deported from the uk and passport revoked
Marxist logic: he seems to think of everything in terms of (perhaps even deliberate) government distribution. Do you not understand that there are many, many things within an economy that are completely beyond government control?

Keep on watching this guy's videos hoping to find some serious evidence and analysis for his claims, because I would love to hear the case, but he never gives any
yeh i thought id listen and see what he had to say ...every sentence had rascism at the end of it ,think hes see racism everywhere where it isnt
@c c good question, I'll have to think about it -- but the short answer is I don't know.
But what has that got to do with the motion of the debate?
@@empireofnoise2200 but this is because you’re probably white, living in a good home, with a decent enough education, you can’t speak on their behalf when for a fact it’s very different for a black person living in the UK smh
If this video was in black and white, rather than colour, it would make sense. Yes, bastion of colonialism. Look where you are! This kind of thinking holds society back not just poc!
you are very honest and its nice to see you can stand and say your opinion in a building even if the opinion in its subject form is critical of the institutional you are in this is the foundation of any good system and why speech is free and freedom of speech is watts spent because it is emitting energy never the less thou
On the basis he is implying racism is in my DNA one could assume racism is in his DNA also?. The most important takeaway of my comment is that TOMMY ROBINSON stood right there in that room.....long live Tommy
His emphasis is structural change. He is against blaming a person for racism
The structure that's keeping people like him from becoming academics/ journalists and speaking at one of the most prestigious universities in the world ... oh wait!

Do us all a favour and stop filling our students heads with false history and one dimensional points of view.
FOOLISH BOY
you say that as if british children don’t already learn a completely white washed version of history
No doubt, the British Empire schooled past leaders who gained independence for their respective nations. And it continues to school future leaders who speak in the British accent and tow the British line. It churns out the same type of leader whether he/she is from Africa, Asia, Middle East and other parts of the former British Empire. Education is soft power, the non violent way to educate the very same peoples, our former masters viewed as heathen and beyond civilising. I fail to see one positve contribution that the British Empire gave to the Somalis it previously semi ruled, in Northern Somalia. The British Empire, actually encouraged clan rivalries, it built little or no type of infrastructure, it failed and tried to envangelise a homogenous nation to Christianity and heavily bombed a national resistance to forced subjugation. Oh I forgot, the English Language was taught to us as a means to churn out the very same 'English fellows' that rule Britain today. The same individuals who will continue to rule and be produced on an eduational conveyor belt; the Anglican, blond, blue eyed, tall, silver spooned wackos. And it will continue to use the same type of people (indentured workers) it previously utilised in Empire, to put us Black people in our place.
Somali pirates seem to have learned a bit
Stop playing victim.
He is telling the truth, the West is bulit on slavery and colonisation, and how can system defend black, when it was not created for that?
