"You should pray I choose the latter," We are created beautifully and have a pure heart because we fear God. And that is why most of us prefer to choose the latter.
@@ninjanibba4259 not a sequel, just another one. Like several years later different cast entirely, more debates competitions, more fun. They don't even need to call it the "great debators". I just think movies about debates are interesting.
Majorities don't decide what it right or wrong, your conscience does. Civil Disobedience is key... an inspiration which came from Henry David Thoreau and Civil Disobedience doesn't reflect anarchy.
This was broadcasted all over the country but it still took too long of a time for James’ last argument to sink in & reach everyone. I mean hell, Jim Crow was still very much active in the south for the next 30 years
If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put foundations under them. - Henry David Thoreau You just know whose quote was just rejected. You are wasting more time. And over there it works every time.
I had never heard of that movie. Watched it yesterday and it had me shed tears at the end. I know it’s based on a true story, but did that debate really happen?
Always good to revisit this from time to time. I do always feel bad for the white guys from a debate standpoint. Always sucks to get the side of the argument that is just objectively wrong haha.
White monopoly capitalism has won us ,many of our brothers and sisters are busy seeking recognition, on white and Indians more especially on our working places and forget where we come from such movies must be shown not to perpetuate segregation but to show auntecity
What are we all doing? Did it scare you POTUS' 43 & 44? You fled the field in my view. The view. The only view I got. Sorry Kurt Bardella and Mary Trump. You are not my taste either but let us Marvel at your journeys. Laid end to end is measuring length. Harvard Debaters. I am looking for 12 f Inches.
The majority do not decide what is right or wrong. Your conscience does.
Very true 👍 👌 👏
Sounds good on paper but you can have it. Some of mankind has little to no conscience.
@@frnkjones40so we should just trust the majority instead huh. The majority do not speak facts, the majority influences and manipulates the person.
"In matters of conscience the law of the majority has no place"- Mahatma Gandhi.
Yes in theory, no in practice
What a great movie ..i can watch it over and over again. Great actors
he just destroyed his opponent's book of arguments with just a paragraph
AAND he did that while making them SHIT THEIR PANTS with the last statement. BALLSY AF
2024 still needed this for my preps for exams 👊🏾
I’m not trying to be a jerk… what course are you referring to?
love this, one of the great speeches in the movie
"You should pray I choose the latter,"
We are created beautifully and have a pure heart because we fear God. And that is why most of us prefer to choose the latter.
Out of fear?
thanks needed this for an essay
Pain
😂😂😂
Would love to read it when you're done.
Please share your work.
It’s been two years………We’re waiting lol
“You should pray I use the latter” and he meant that shit
I am still floored there was never a 2nd great debators movie.
Why would this need a sequel?

It still hasn’t reached everyone
@@nigelstanford4 The kind of people it still hasn’t reached, these days, are basically the minority. The nobodies whom everyone looks down on
@@nigelstanford4 The ones who haven’t been reached are pretty much the minority these days. They’re the ones that are looked down on
A Truth is a Truth, sadly we seem to have to relearn these Truths over and over again.
yes
If the truth destroys it, let it be destroyed.
whenever my topic is all about debate or argumentation in my English classes...i always recommend this movie...
I love the few seconds of silence bfr his speech, it came from a true source
No better time to watch this clip than the day after Juneteenth just to reflect on progress 😂
I wonder how much philosophy and critical thinking and logic is needed for debates
Why do you wonder? Clearly lots.
How about patience?! Sometimes you could be debating either side
It’s a mix of patience, emotional intelligence, and critical thinking.
Why did they cut it before the audience response?
