Anderson Cooper interviewed Dr. Cornel West regarding the broader George Floyd story. And what Dr. West said was crucial: American capitalism has failed to provide justice and dignity for working-class and Black Americans, and the current instability is a result of that.


Spot on.

Great clip, thank you.:hand:

I was just watching Cornell on Firing line.....lol

He was on the show w/ Robert George.... Quite a good interview......

Gave me a lot to think about this evening..........
 
Progressives on an island. I guess that wouldn't be possible, because progressivism can't exist absent liberalism. Otherwise, you just get extreme ideology from the start.
 
West is pretty damn smart. His observations are usually well substantiated. There are many who think the American experiment is in trouble since Trump. He just accelerated the problems of wealth division which has gotten worse and worse since Reagan. He has stoked racism and hate. The lowest and most base feelings of people are getting acceptance. We are no longer trying to become a more perfect union. Trump calls it winning.

Well said. Trump praised nazis as fine people.
 
so to recap.

I said trump said that the white supremacists and neo nazis should be totally condemned.

you then said I lied.

I then showed you the direct quote of him saying that, literally sentences after the line you were quoting.

America is collapsing....HOWEVER ....the first thing to do is to finger those who are responsible.
 
I hope people understood what this guy was saying.
It doesn't matter what color or ethnicity the Billionaire, the Ownership Class has a common goal of 'making money off the Working Class'.
