Bari Weiss is a writer and editor for The New York Times opinion section, where she writes about culture and politics. Before joining the Times a year ago, Bari was an op-ed editor at The Wall Street Journal and an associate book review editor there. For two years, she was a senior editor at Tablet, the online magazine of Jewish news, politics, and culture, where she edited the site's political and news coverage. Earlier this month, Bari won the Reason Foundation’s 2018 Bastiat Prize, which annually honors writing that “best demonstrates the importance of freedom with originality, wit, and eloquence.” The judges cited “her brilliant, incisive journalism defends that cornerstone of individual liberty and civil society: freedom of speech.” Bari is a proud Pittsburgh native and a graduate of Columbia.

It's great to hear words that fight ideological subversion that threatens the fabric of American values. Thank you Bari!!!!
Excellent talk that cuts across political divides. It's important to recognize when the level of our discussions drop - it disables proper thinking.
Great speech, love how you took both wings of our current political climate to task. Its also great to see a person who clearly as rethought her beliefs and allowed new information to change your mind regarding certain political dogmas. I am in the same boat and sometimes feel like I am on an island in that regard.
Bari Weiss be a loon.
This the ultimate hellworld synthesises: Barrack Obama and Paul Joseph Watson, Ted talks and Breitbart, MSNBC and Fox. a real strudel of capitalist capitalist realism which manages to to be perl clutching, soft edgy, and dare I say a dirty the word "thoughty" at the same time. chills.
It’s time for Bari to speak again so we can all listen with open hearts & minds, perhaps she can give us great insights on seven more words or seventy times seven - I would suggest beginning with Forgiveness!
Wonderful speech. Spot on. Great diagnosis of what plagues our present times. Thoughtful prescriptions on moving forward. (And please get over the fact that this was delivered to an audience of mostly retired people.)
Thank you, Bari Weiss!
Bari’s address is a terrific expression of the problem of public discourse. It is especially terrifying to hear about the lack of integrity of our colleges in upholding the fundamental values articulated by our founding fathers.

11:06 if you want to hear the words right away or revisit them.
What does the word Toady mean Bari?
Jamie can you look that up?
Lmao 😂🤣🤣
It's an enemy from Yoshi's Island.
This seems more like a high-school debate speech or something.
What a succinct speech.
What a pertinent theme for high-profile and thought-provoking, featured remarks.
This assertion (delivered during the 19th Minute) is quite interesting: "The antidote to identity politics is imagination--a moral and political imagination...."
Freedom of Speech entails--and sometimes obligates--the freedom to offend; otherwise, speech is not free. An "upside" to hateful &or bigoted speech is that, sometimes, it facilitates identifying who, exactly, is hateful &or bigoted.
Can someone tell me why it is that I can't load this video at 144 without waiting for 30 second buffers but I can watch a music video at 1080 no problem?
Great Speech
Superior speech and experience. Your viewpoint is a model for those who want to eschew tribalism in favor of actual rational thought.
Except the only people she defends are those tribalistically supportive of Israel. She lobbied to get professors fired for voicing anti-Israel opinions. So much for "empathy".
"The Antidote to Identity Politics is Imagination" 18:37 Hurrah! I could not agree more. Given that I'm a very imaginative, creative person, this comment helps me understand why I find Identity Politics so disturbing. "It is a given that literature and art will offend: that is in its nature." 23:17 BRAVO!
Bari, congratulations, this is a superb talk you gave. Had I come across your talk a few days ago, I'd have wanted to include parts of it or reference to it in my film on Identity Politics. (Identity Politics and Mass Delusion, here: ruclips.net/video/Opz-jsdTt1I/видео.html ) You make so many excellent points with great examples, showing the increasingly ludicrous claims that issue from this divisive, intolerant, racist and delusional worldview.

33:54 , exactly... being objective is now a super human power
Bravo
30:05 We found her!
The young one!
Get her!
Precious youth!
I'm pretty sure the 90 year-olds in that audience didn't understand half of the references she made. The Chautauqua institute is the Florida of NY.
I'm sure they understand better than college students.
I knew I followed you on twitter for a reason. I may disagree with you but at least you're sane.
I would say saner but it's still nice!
how old are you
Yay!
This is so important. Sadly, I think people won’t wake up to the dangers she is identifying here until a couple of generations from now, when intersectional activism has escalated to a dystopian degree that no one can deny.

Curious how Bari now reflects on this speech, about the tension between Liberal and Illiberal, given her recent resignation from that Illiberal editorial context, the New York Times.
Bari, Thank you for saying all of this as someone who thinks both sides have completely lost their respective minds; this needs to be heard. Unfortunately I fear this will again fall on deaf ears or be drowned out by the constant screaming, but hopefully this can make an impact.

imagination, humility, proportion, empathy, judgment, reason, doubt
Finland mentioned!
Empathy increases in-group bias and the whole point of thinking is to Remove doubt.
That's a weird thing to say.
she puts it out there. each of us have to figure it out. but whats her views on gluten and dairy free.....
my grandma lives there and she wants chris hedges to visit
Wouldn't it be amazing to get a standing ovation from an audience of 20-30 year olds? This audience looks to be 60-80 years old. They get it already. Preaching to the choir. A great lecture, I just wonder how a younger audience would respond. (Maybe they would protest and shut it down)
I certainly hope this doesn't have appeal beyond this demographic.

I didn't get the dog whistle bit at the beginning. Have you ever heard Maxine Waters? If her IQ is over 85 I'll eat my car.

Ms Toth, thank you for your consideration of this submission.
The central theme of Bari Weiss’s well-crafted and well-delivered July 26 talk addressed not letting political identity color one’s pronouncements on current issues. In my opinion though, she herself seriously violated this admonition. Her pro-Israel leanings led her to condemn the culture of Gaza relative to Israel. This she did claiming that Gaza treats gays more poorly than Israel. I would not deny that the quality of life of gays probably does suffer in Gaza. But a much more serious issue is how a country’s security forces treat those under its control. Israeli forces have killed over 300 and injured many thousands of unarmed Palestinians protestors in Gaza since this March. Gaza is wrong in its treatment of gays. Israel’s offenses against Palestinians are egregiously worse. Gaza may mistreat gays. Israel kills Palestinians. Both transgressions are to be condemned. But Israel’s transgressions are disproportionate. No, Ms Weiss, it is extremely hypocritical to say that Israel’s culture is better than Gaza’s at this time.

Israel will not self destruct so that Commie Jew haters will speak nice of them.
As Gomer says 'surprise surprise'. What the hell did she say...
So many fellow "blondes."
Can somebody just list what the seven fucking words are?
at 4:21 you can see Bari casting some pretty powerful necromancy
“A space for violence” - I think of a MMA ring not a friggen email.
These are only offensive to some when you used to oppose progressive politics.

The "f-word" bothers me a lot more than the word fuck for some reason.
i'm glad to hear the sentiments coming out loudly … it would've been more timeless without the shots at trump.
She's clearly reading her entire speech ...word for word. She isn't speaking naturally, but it's as though she is reading to a group of children.
Now that she had resigned from the NY Times, I wonder if she feels the same way?
But she is a hack who can't having what is routinely done to the people on the Right, Conservatives, Classical Liberal, Lassie Faire, Libertarians, etc. But she is still an ideologue and 1/2 a turn less fanatical. This I know from paraphrasing Trump's words to push the same narrative. Trump is a racist, bigot and sexist but none of the phrases are what he actually said or out of complete context. Just like the "grab them by the p×ssy" quote. It is actually missing in proper order, "they LET you grab them..." Let, means permission. oh, the humanity.
@@aBRUSHforCONFUCIUS Yea, I noticed she elft out the "let" part. Implies consent. Further, women play that exact same game to get ahead.
Another is the "rapists" part. Trump was going thru a list of people coming across the border and he said "their rapists" not "they are rapists" referring to South Americans in general.
Context is everything.
@@Del-Canada Bit like when a thief says that something was free for the taking? No one stopped them either. If you get grabbed like that (whatever your gender) it puts a lot of people in a state of shock. Given that lots of women complained about him grabbing them like that may well suggest that they didn't 'let' him. But maybe that they didn't have the time or the power to stop him.
@@maxinewarnest894 Where did those approximately 15 accusers suddenly vanish to? Very odd. For example Leeds, Anderson, Drake, Taggert, Heller, Zervos, et al. They were the biggest media stories during the 2016 election, and suddenly they are... Where? *crickets* Of course there weren't as many during the 2020 election cycle because the media knew it would work this time. So they used different tactics. The US media(It's not even news, it's entertainment. Fox, MSNBC, CNN, CBS, etc) gaslights Americans so easily.
I do agree though, "let" can be interpreted in different ways depending on which side of the grabbing you are on, but accusations are just accusations.
@@maxinewarnest894 It's honestly very sad how daft and disconnected from the law Americans(Generally speaking) become when someone they do not like, or at least someone the media has conditioned them to not like, is accused of something. Suddenly the law matters not, and due process simply becomes a phrase on a bumper sticker. They need to realize when they toss due process out for one, they toss it out for themselves and one day that will bite them in the rump.
Why is everybody elder?
Chautauqua was an American movement, for continuing education of adults, but it's not popular anymore. These people must have gotten into it when they were younger.
Ehh idk “doubt” could be a reference to genitalia, I.e. ED
Wow, look at that audience. You are truly the voice of a generation.
The generation that knew Taft would clean things up and aeroplanes are the future of travel.
Noam Chomsky is 89. Bernie Sanders is 76. Elizabeth Warren is 69. You, on the other hand, are an idiot.
And with our allies won World War Ii, went to the Moon, developed many drugs that cured many intractable diseases, etc., etc.
I was only interested in Herwick's seeming sarcasm.
haikujim1 someone really should tell Ocasio-cortez and all the Sanders supporters who fill stadiums that they're old and dying.
But ok.
But the speaker is young ...but she's from the New York Times, so ...
"Between Gaza and Israel on gay rights" this is where cultural absolutism gets tricky because sure, Israeli culture is superior to Gazan on that one criteria, heck probably on many criteria, but what response does that permit? Gazans are being blockaded, starved to death and occasionally gunned down by Israelis and it is hard not to hear that jab against their gay rights a justification, though a carefully worded and indirect justification that can be easily denied.
If you have vocal opposition to a cultural practice on one end of the spectrum, progressing to various pressures, sanctions, threats and ultimately forced assimilation on the other end, where do we draw the line? Most would agree it should be somewhere in the middle, but without a clear guiding principal I think a culture that stays more towards vocal opposition is better then one that intervenes.
I don't like the implication that we might one day accept or approve of child sexualization. That's my only complaint with Weiss's speech.
We already do. Check out elementary school sex ed curriculums being pushed by the left in the public schools. It's already started in summer camps.
@@michaelschaefer1904 Disgraceful.
An hour of babbling to deliver a simplistic message of common sense. Nope, 'Fake it till you make it' doesn't work in real life. It will work in poli-ticks though.
median audience age here is 104
And your comment is relevant how? You validate Ms. Weiss' comments in stunning clarity here.
this is objective truth, verrit certified. facts are always relevant. regardless of youre feelings!!!
This is a Chautauqua, not Burning Man. Do you even know what Chautauqua is? I'm guessing you're the type that goes down to the history section of your local public library and expects to find Justin Bieber browsing the stacks.
Given the venue it’s pretty logical but you could probably get some Twitter likes for saying that
shut da hell up
I don't mind they Idea that you can't speak about understanding someone's experiences as long as it isn't used hypocritically by disingenuous or deluded feminists who speak about men's experiences with complete confidence. That's one reason the word empathy should be abandoned, because it's mostly used by arrogant ignorant self-serving self-deluded people.
IMO Bari is intelligent and really means well, but she's pretty naive. She reminds me of Dave Rubin and similar moderates, where she wants to be seen as extremely reasonable and fair, but in truth she's better at interviewing than formulating ideas. She truly believes that just listening to people with an open mind will solve all ills, but that relies on Western Enlightenment values that have been abandoned by the very powerful and visible radicals on the left, and she will be rolled over by them as she pleads for understanding. Sorry Bari, the people who matter (bike lock man, black lives matter, antifa etc) aren't listening to you and have already rejected what you're trying to say.
I must disagree. The people in the middle are all listening, and they are who really matter.
Just because the wingnuts are loudest doesn't mean they're the most powerful.
Weiss needs a dictionary.
Really, Bari quotes Barry Obama on his South African speech against identity politics? What about the 8 years he was President and his 2 elections which were all about identity politics? Seriously, Obama's speech was like watching patient zero looking at carnage his caused walking through town and saying, "My bad."
Better late than never, I guess. At least it's on the record.
Obama was about higher values. He was the opposite of identity politics. What a silly thing to say.
Knead, I remember a President emoting on National TV that if he had a son, he’d probably look like Trayvon days after the shooting. Damn due process of the jurisdiction courts. That was reckless. That was identity politics. To be fair, Trump plays the game as well.
When he held press conferences for Martin and Michael Brown and not for a person of any other ethnicity when they were shot and killed, when black males are not victims of police violence disproportionate to their share of violent crime...that’s identity politics. That’s an example of one of the new dirty words Weiss discusses: proportion.
No, "proportion" is what Obama applied in almost every instance where people on the left called him not black enough and people on the right said he was too cozy with black preachers. Obama cooled people, applied measured tone, and never went for the easy dunk on identity politics. For him *not* to comment on endless shootings of black men in America would be ludicrous. Again not identity politics but decency, something that the President was (before Trump) supposed to do as a moral leader of the country. Anyways, arguing online becoming useless in 3-2-1...
What garbage. I thought I'd listen because I am a "Chautauquan" from way back. Where did they dig her up from?
It's a morning lecture. For retired people.
I'm not sure which is worse, that this person thinks her vapid attacks of marginalized minorities is enlightened, or the people who think she is worthy of subjecting the rest of us to.
Make no mistake, if you pay attention she is making a straw man argument around gender and sex. No serious person claims their are no difference. But its an easy applause line to virtue signal to those she sees as allies.
Just like her empty claims attacking identity.
She has absolutely no problem with identity, as long as its one she supports.
If this is supposed to represent what constitutes intelligent civil discourse we are lost as a society.
She seeks to pervert free speech to silence anyone who doesn't share her worldview, while pretending to be the victim of an all powerful liberal media that never was.
The media buy-in-large is corporate. Simple as that. They make more money everytime they increase viewership. So they put out "edgy" content, they don't care as long as it increases add sales. Only in that very narrow way is there anything liberal about the media. So much of that content tends to be seen as liberal, look at punk or rock-n-roll. The right would never have the creativity to birth such movements.
The ideologies of the right are reactionary. They are defined by what they are against. They are not prescriptive, rather they are stagnant and known for their desperate need of conformity.
4:21 check out that audience, this looks like bari is trying to sell timeshares in Florida.
Chris H omg ew old people! Who believes old people are relevant anymore? OMG
You obviously know nothing about Chautauqua, it was founded in 1874. It's not a TED talk, nor is it a forum for hipster millennials who vape and whine about how oppressed SJW life is. Here, allow me to educate you: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chautauqua
"highly popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries"
Probably could have managed this without leaning so hard on Orange Man Bad.
TOADY !!!!
She's severely biased. Ben Shapiro harbors some strong anti-gay and anti-Palestinian opinions, that merit criticism of Dupleiss. He was made aware of them, and he distanced himself from Shapiro. That's how discussion and debate works. Weiss only speaks of empathy for a very particular group of people - critics of Islam, supporters of Israel. That's fine, but don't masquerade as doing so out of a love of hearing "other sides". She uses the word "litmus test" as judgement of liberals who fail to condemn Muslim "cultures". Again, that's fine. But that contradicts her core message here of empathizing with an opposing side. We all are stubborn with our views. We all are combative against the people whose views we oppose. She is no different. She merely wants to silence those people who speak out against the likes of Shapiro, Jordan Peterson, etc. She's exactly the thing she's condemning.
This the ultimate hellworld synthesises: Barrack Obama and Paul Joseph Watson, Ted talks and Breitbart. She serves up real strudel of capitalist capitalist realism which manages to to be perl clutching, soft edgy, and dare I say a dirty the word "thoughty" at the same time. chills.
She's such a hypocrite lol
lol she cancelled herself. Massive own.
Bari is a clown
