    Kwame coming with an analysis that is timeless. Today our biggest issue is still organization. To this day we're still doing mass mobilization and when we try to organize like in Flint we're met with Cointelpro and black moderate opportunists.

      tdavis9610 brother you should look up the International People’s Democratic Uhuru Movement (InPDUM). This organization embodies Ture’s stance of Organization > Mobilization and has been consistently leading campaigns and building institutions to serve our people and lead our liberation struggle. You’d fit in well there brother

      Love Elaine but she's half dead wrong. Africa doesn't have a GD thing to do with us, OR ANYONE ELSE. They are all trying to BE LIKE us, to get to OUR country. You lose all notion of Self and positive Identity when you say you shouldn't think like an owner in the country your ancestors built from scratch. That's why you don't hear anyone else in this hemisphere talking about "we're lost in our country and should be somewhere else." This disorientation ia the root of EVERYTHING wrong and dysfunctional about us.

    I'm upset that Crouch is disrespecting Kwame Ture by addressing him by his former name. At first I thought Crouch had made an honest mistake because he apologized & subsequently corrected himself, but the second time it was obviously deliberate. Btw Elaine Brown is nauseated by Crouch, you can tell. LOL

    Surely they did not call these seven people together for a 20 min panel discussion. I'm assuming only 20 minutes were allocated for the News Hour program. I'm sure Dr. Ture went deeper into "reforms vs power" and "organization vs mobilization." Each person's specific solution would have been great.

    My postscript to this; Hunter-Gault has lost her way. I met her last year in Tampa. It was brief. I recognized her at the Tampa airport and wanted to say Hi. When I asked her what she was doing these days, she said she's still a journalist on the News Hour and does "Conversations" with important people. I had forgotten this much older panel when I suggested she add Angela Davis to her list. She made a face and said that "she's not someone who fits my program." I was disappointed by the strange response and so did not even have the heart to post the encounter on Facebook. Hunter-Gault was not someone who fit my program either. I can only imagine from her answer and her tone that this particular panel she was TOLD to do, and that she does what she is TOLD.

  • @CrowdPleeza
    @CrowdPleeza 5 лет назад +6

    One thing I think we need to realize is that Black progress,especially economic progress,may never be even for all Blacks. Because different Blacks can have different opportunities and circumstances depending on where they live. The job opportunities for Blacks in Detroit may not be the same as it is for Blacks living in Washington D.C for example. Also another factor is personal ambition. Not all Blacks are going to have the same amounts of ambition. Differences with this can cause there to be differences among Blacks and upward mobility.

    • @nicoles3166
      @nicoles3166 Год назад

      i disagree. obviously you are right to some degree but i believe these differences come from economic or material inequality. economic and racial progress are different. in order for us to have real equality we need racial and economic progress. marxism is liberating only by tearing down social stratification and flattening class divides.

    American Black leaders are not emphasizing to young blacks to stay in school, follow American laws, avoid drug use, guns, violence and support the mothers of their young children and all their children always!
    Blacks lead every category indicating their struggle to obtain the "American Dream" life.
    Most young Blacks dream of a career in sports, entertainment, etc., but they are not encouraged to have backup plan which should include graduating from high school, then graduating from a trade school, college or military training.
    American Blacks are fortunate to have an American citizenship, which most of the world will never have. Encourage young blacks to take advantage of this opportunity!
