  1. Your taking my crumbs./ I asked my friend Michael why emotionally disturbed people are always the ones in charge and he said," they're the only ones who want to be. It make sense. Why would you want to control others without a deformation of spirit?

  2. Yes the managerial class is highly evident at the lowest levels of society one can find ones self in. The shelter home, the transitional living facilities such as the one I stay at. The method and concept of "biting the hand that feeds you as a control , which is to say complaining labels one as an ungrateful troublemaker. Against this veteran by other veterans performing the roles of Program Managers and Case Managers as government functionaries. Agreed, racism is a social construct flying under the radar as a shape shifter.

  3. Truth has been spoken here… Dates might be slightly off but nevertheless. This here is DEAD on. If people stop trying to speak as if everyone knows the meaning of words an speak as it is UGLY…
    Really layman's discussion is what we're having so let's talk as such

  4. The gospel of go spel Liberal of Liberty of the Bible equal al/ R/ Eli B of Eli must restore all things of equal Liberty equal Ely B Rit of the law of proclamation around the world

  5. Ahem. BS. Only simple minds would consider what they are saying here "complex". The problems that some minorities face today is not down to one underlying principle such as "white supremacy". The problems minorities face are multi variant. There are MANY causes, not one overarching concept. Racism is just one of those variables. Probably not even the most important one in this day and age. There is certainly racism within institutions. There is certainly prejudice existing within humans. But the institutions themselves are not intrinsically racist. That's impossible. Literally impossible. It would have to be codified. And there are very few areas where racism is still codified. For instance the industrial prison system is one of those where it is. But to suggest that people are so weak minded that they are subconsciously manipulated into becoming and supporting racism because of history is crap. Sorry. There is no "DNA" of a country. This country is far to complex for that to be possible or mean anything applicable. Learning about western history in classrooms more than history of other parts of the world doesn't make people racist. I don't know anyone who believed everything they learned in class was the end all be all of history. How stupid do they think people are? There ARE however repercussions due to a history OF racism, which is different than saying our institutions are all currently racist. That legacy of racism does not mean everything today is racist. They are right, the media, including THIS channel is not honest in the way they discuss racism. They act like their concept is complex, but its not. This is the most simple and basic way to discuss racism and it's completely misleading. They should just call this show "Racism for Dummies". Liberals use divisive race baiting as much or more than Republicans do these days. Well, I should probably say "progressives" and "woke culture", not necessarily liberals. Actual liberals are a dying breed. This is just more rhetoric and propaganda produced on a foundation of communist thought. This lacks a respect for objective reality. This puts "lived experience" above all other means of knowledge and describes objectivity itself as racist. BS. Simple people with simple ideas shouldn't be flouting this. The only thing they got right is that the media, including them, have a simplistic and pretty useless conceptualization of racism. This won't stop the mass shootings. What objectives and protocols they are describing will lead to MORE violence. The idea of "whiteness" is complete nonsense. Robin DeAngelo is a complete hack and a pseudo academic. "White supremacy" is NOT the underlying foundation of the modern country. "White supremacy" is not this countries biggest problem. Not even close. The things they call "white supremacy" are very often nothing of the sort. These hackjobs have been indoctrinated into a cult of victimization and finger pointing. Instead of trying to work with people, most who are more than willing to solve ACTUAL problems, they would rather demonize those people. THAT is divisive and will lead to violence. 95% of the European American population are not racist and don't think they are intrinsically better or genetically better than anyone. The vast majority of white people are more attached to their ethnic background than their skin color. They don't care about their skin color. They dont care that they are white. "White" isn't a monoculture. No more than black is. No more than Mexican is. No more than any complex society with incredibly numerous subcultures. They see that people are black and brown also, and they don't care that they are. They would rather see them as people, equal regardless of color. And it's not denying the experience of others, its putting objective reality at the forefront of knowledge, as it should be. Stop this divisive and hateful rhetoric Real News Network. You are part of the problem.

  6. Ofcourse the media spreads disinformation and misinformation because the media is OWNED and CONTROLLED by our oppressors. This fiat kingdom MUST FALL. 😡

  7. Larry Elder black man working for Epoch Times stated racism was worse under Obama Biden than Trump. I didn't think this myself. Keep shner really… Compassion ridiculous

  8. What we really need to be discussing is "why" ALL races are racist against the black race. PERHAPS, if "we change" the negative characteristics whereby we stand out like a swollen thumb, we will be accepted maybe even embraced by the other races.

    Whites and Orienrals will not discuss racism with us because "WE DON'T LISTEN and WE ARE TOO EMOTIONAL. WE DON'T WANT TO HEAR AND "ACCEPT" others "verbalized" observations. Although I don't believe ever asked Latinos "reason" for their racism, I believe they would come straight with their facts because if blacks "snap" on them, they are already prepared to take matters to the next level.

    SO, let's stop this pretense it is only a particular race exihibits an are of being better than our black race. Those with the notion of being better than our race are "ALL" unified and when it comes to the defense of their race, THEY ORGANIZE.

    Charateristically, our black ppl behave as separated "tribes." They come to the defense of their "clan (and friends of the clan)" all others must fend for themselves and their clan. Black ppl have absolutely "no common interest" in order to unite and organize as one. Our ppl are "shifty and shady." We "cannot" trust each other. Clearly, an apple does not fall far from its tree… Look at Africa!

  9. My solution to racism in America….I moved to Central America! I occassionally spent 10 minutes of my time watching news casts of racism in America, to stay informed. And, the remaining time drinking Pina Coladas on the beach. How wonderful it is not to be a victim on the social, economic, financial and governmental aspects of racism in America.

  10. That Candice Owen situation helps us not get the real talk about white racial hate on the table, It makes me think she is being paid by the republicans. I do not like the way our country is letting this hatred go on with our president leading The pack with his hate speeches. It is hurting my heart.

  11. "Finally talk about racism"?! Is this the Onion? Thats all the media talks about and weve being hearing it for years. Maybe the crying wolf is what makes people roll their eyes even when there is real racism. Another thing, black Americans have their own struggle, dont lump the struggle in with foreigner migrants that get treated better than native blacks.

  12. You can draw a straight line from the Genocide of indigenous peoples using smallpox blankets to Dylann Roof's massacre of black worshippers using a gun. He was also wearing a Rhodesian flag.

  13. Thank You Jaqueline Luqman for your exploring this topic. I think that this bit about i am better than you pervades the educational system in this country and it helps to be aware of one's own programmed racism in order to be able to try to deal with it in a more just fashion.

  14. A Moorish American with a channel named "Rise of the Moors" defines "racism" by its parts: race + ism = a continuation of race.
    So, is racism the best word or is GENOCIDE better?
    I love me some Eddie.
    Gratitude to you as well, Dylan and sister Jaqueline.

    PS – Jaisal followed me on Twitter before they shut me down a couple months ago. I was going off about the Dutch, how proud they are of New Amsterdam and my ancestors bones located underneath Wall Street. Since 2008, I built a brand and a voice with tremendous reach as evidenced by a powerful following, I won't get into who's who here.
    I will be suing them for a staggering sum to wound the beast, get its attention.

  15. Eddie Conway is a living, walking History book. When I was a kid, Civil Rights activists and members of the Black Panthers would come to Black churches and Black communities and teach us about Black History and keep us updated on current events. Moreover, I used to go with my aunt and my cousin to hear Malcolm X and, years later, Minister Louis Farrakhan speak.

  16. An interesting thought: If not for the immigration issue & the scapegoating thereof to gain political currency by the
    powers that be, it most likely would have been Black people in the forefront of the scapegoating tactic, which
    always seems to be a tool within the confines of political battles and the need to garner more votes to ones
    side. We see this with terms like "law & order", "drug culture", etc. which everyone knows is pointedly a tactic
    to instill fear within a segment of the voting population against another segment, of society, now with the raids &
    anti-immigrant rhetoric we hear daily, a Black person has to have mixed feelings, on one side, these are my
    brothers being rounded up, while on the side, there but thru the grace, of God, that could be me, because racism
    is alive, for ALL of US. ( @CjDlll )

  17. Black ppl do you see something in the picture. They are as one. We are so not together. We have some Ninjas fighting for gay rights. We have some Ninjas fighting for immigration. We have some Ninjas just want to get high and drunk. And I know some have given up. But they haven't given up. They woke up. Why can't we do the same. Time to get off our ass's.

  18. Racism is terrorist,Racism is more then a control things. It’s even worst than cancer. No stop to it, it’s a DN A thing. keeps going no stop to it. I’m a people person, I love all peoples. I had enough of racist people. I don’t want nothing do with racist people. A woman let her grandfather died because he was racist and more. Jesus is coming soon, he will be the only judge. As a black person I forgive because I know who I am.

  19. Very fine discussion panel, indeed. I bookmarked this video for future reference and just came across that this evening, Sept. 15, 2019, so chose to listen to it again, for doing that sometimes is really helpful. The appreciation only increased. And, seeing that there's a part 2 for this video, I just did a YouTube search to try to find this video, got it and will now listen to this one. GOOD work, folks of the pannel!
