Rooted Cosmopolitanism for the 21st Century with Kwame Anthony Appiah – S2 Ep 12
Prof. Kwame Anthony Appiah is a Ghanian-born, half-British, rooted-cosmopolitan American citizen whose free mind travels across space and time in search of understanding.

    I like that he said Black Americans have been the patriot for ever aspect of America. It's not only true but it's also the reason black people can have the freedom to voice our opinion about this country rather you agree or not! The truth can be ugly and sometimes people hate to even stomach real truth. When a black person voice their Truth or freedom of speech regarding this country it isn't an act of terrorist, anti, or any bracket that people like to throw at strong-minded, blunt, and straightforward BAs.

    Also, there are 2 factions of so many…. French, Indian, Black etc…in America one of the biggest misunderstandings of this is those who came in with the revolutions and those who opposed those very revolutions and each one is significant. The French revolution was against the original French connected to the crown who the revolutionist opposed and wanted annihilated. Differences in religion ways of life and people origins etc …the Haitian revolution is an interesting one as they understand Napoleon B. not to be a true frenchmen but a man from Corsica (Italian ancestry) but came under the name “The French” Haitian culture knowing French history understood the usurping of that dude. And here comes the Haitian Revolution as standing for freedom and truth. French and Indian Wars there were 2 different nations of Indians and French in these wars. etc… Seems we need to be more specific on who what when and how especially that there are more than one group within these conflicts and mostly they are opposite of one another in all things but yet have carried the same name in modern times mainly Black, Indian, White Which tribe? What Land? What origin story? This is def a complex topic and could be explain better but just a thought 💭…..

    what we are dealing with is a generation of kids who have not been taught like the ones before have no recollection of the proper history of the holocaust to hear Jews being called Nazis just literally is garbage it makes no sense but since critical thinking has been dying you are seeing how much of a weapon it can be when you have I will say very very good snake oil salesman selling their my land is taken apart tide BS with Buzz words to these kids that literally just want another cause to hang onto trying to find themselves we all go through it like the hippies an example given to me but I said yeah but you’re making the hippies embarrassed because hippies could tell you exactly what they were out there standing for and they were usually quite articulate and no honey you don’t know if you want to be a boy a girl or a cat and the idea of people having guns to defend themselves makes you cry so as an opinion that is not a problem but when it comes to stuff like this and having to step up for who you are as a country and who you are representing as a country is a huge problem and we are seeing people in high seats right now show their evil show their ugly and that’s great so we know who everyone is and where they stand but I have never been more proud Zionist and I have never felt more sturdy in stance than the unfortunate opportunity to make good on my name for the first time I ever heard a holocaust story that I would never ever except being on the wrong side of history and I would always defend the Jewish people and their right to a home a home that wasn’t even given by man see what people don’t understand is you don’t have to be religious and you don’t have to understand that part but you’re missing a giant part you’re actually missing a part that put your life in danger because whether you believe or not isn’t no issue to the person who does believe that you were in the way and I’m hoping that we can educate and definitely find our voices bigger than ever people are way too tolerant they’re way too quiet Britain is finding us out too and it’s not going to matter what side we are on other than right and wrong. Because when you were not dealing with people that just don’t get along you are dealing with people that have the idea that the fact that you were alive is upsetting to them and against their belief system that is so hard to sync into peoples heads because they just can’t fathom that kind of evil because they will hear that and then automatically say to state solution and drive me crazy and I might be on a limb here but I think every one of those protesters should have to watch the October 7 videos before they decide what they stand for you are sadly also backing someone who would gladly blow you off a building and celebrate so it’s hard to watch it’s hard to see the reality of what mush our minds have come to but critical thinking is not dead yet and we can revive this but it’s going to take a lot of tough love❤❤❤❤🙏🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🫶

    Intersectionality should make people aware of the different life experiences we have, but it has turned into a way to pit people against each other by pairing a privileged group (men or whites) with a marginalized group (women or blacks) and then guilt trip everyone of the privileged group in a very vindictive way. It does the opposite of bringing people together. We are individuals first - not just the result of our identity groups. Why can't we acknowledge systemic problems without implicating everyone of a particular identity group?
