      @@klj2382 Just from this short clip you can tell that he's a race baiter and doesn't want Freeman's race solution to sound good to the audience, so he tries to derail the argument by saying he's Jewish, as opposed to white which he is. Luckily that backfired on him and gave Freeman another avenue of argument:
      "Okay, what month is Jewish history month?"
      "Th-there isn't one."
      "OH! Oh. Why not? Do you want one?"
      Sums up how meaningless, even detrimental, black history month really is to black people.

    It’s a terrible shame that this type of common sense has gone out the window in our modern day. When I was a kid growing up in the American Northeast, my mates and I were all different colors from all different places. The only time we would ever reference these differences was to make fun of them. It was literally a joke to us.

      The problem is having “identity” come before “ability”. People need to stop giving a shit about what someone is, gender, race, whatever - and start looking at what each individual is able to do. Unfortunately we won’t get there until people stop looking at identity first and foremost.

Morgan is one of those ppl that likes to live in a fantasy world where everyone has been set up equally and in reality that’s not the case.

      It's so simple, yet politics, power, contention, and control cloud the real moral high-ground. Freeman's IQ and MQ (Morality Quotient) gotta be 200+.
      These simple facts can apply to basically any physical or spiritual differences between us humans. Sad to see certain people across the world cause more harm than good all just for power and control.

    • @AndyRiesgos
      @AndyRiesgos 4 года назад +58

      Because that’s what happens when you ignore a problem instead of confronting it. And while the idea of black history being American history is great, this is simply not the case when it comes to American History classes, you know where we’re supposed to learn about American history. The month is dedicated to raise awareness of the atrocities that blacks faced, the history that was almost erased: Tulsa Massacre, Wilmington Coup d’état by White Supremacist, Seneca Valley destroyed to create Central Park, all that shit you don’t learn about, as well as all the contributions that blacks made for which they hardly get credit. It’s nice to have a month to reflect on all that history and learn from it. To make it stand out. With his line of thinking, we shouldn’t observe 4th of July or Juneteenth because we’re free already.

    I think some people don’t understand what he meant by saying “Don’t talk about it”. He is simply saying don’t look for race or racism everywhere. For instance you have news titles like “Black man kills white man” or “White man kills black man” and so on, just driving the race war and making people think that the killing was racially motivated. I.e. putting the focus on the race while disregarding every thing else. So, instead of identifying people by their race, or assuming their motivations based solely on their race, we should judge them for the individual they are.

      Nah. Stop talking about it means the media needs to stop perpetuating this racial divide. Not really don’t look for racism. Racism is looked down upon almost everywhere and as technology and communication expand more and more places are brought into the scrutiny of the public conglomerate. Hatred only exists in places where it is allowed to survive or where it is kept alive by those wishing to exploit falsified oppression or those manipulated into doing so unknowingly.
