How you know Roland respects Dr. West? - he let him speak without interruption. Thank you Roland for this interview. Dr. Cornel West is truly one of the greats among us.
I will never forget meeting Dr. West at MICA in Baltimore. He was standing on a stage and I was on the floor. He literally got on his knees to give me a hug to thank me for attending his talk. I was so humbled.
Mr West stood at the hotel I work at. It was Essence Fest here In New Orleans. We pass each other in the hallway. I didn't know his name at that time. I said good morning Professor. He smiled and said good morning.
Dr Cornell West is someone I can listen to anytime. Anywhere. He is so sincere, honest and loving and a man of God. He’s doesn’t waiver and is consistent and no matter which network or platform he has he demands the respect of all bc he respects everyone’s viewpoint. God bless Dr Cornell West and Thank you 🙏🏽 Roland for having men like him on the show.
To be honest I came here to low-key troll Roland Martin but as I listened I could not find one thing I disagreed with here. This is by far one of his best shows. The highlight for me was Cornell West standing 10 toes down on his views about Obama's presidency. No one is beyond reproach and should be held accountable for their actions or lack of action. Especially those in position of leadership. I also appreciated their discussion on the need of Black owned media outlets. Once again...great show. Much respect.
@Maxine Fields Yeah and trump is all that and a bag of chips!? Please! He kept us out of pandemics, he tried to get medical for all including those with preconditions. He saved the economy which trump took credit for and started the releasing of low level crime offenders who had been in jail for years and more. He made mistakes, but what president hasn't? He must of been halfway decent cause this president wants to take credit for the good he did and blame all the bad on him as well as undo anything he implemented whether it made sense or not! Like firing all the Pandemic staff that was under Obama that kept us from being in the situation we find ourselves in now! This president blames ALL of his troubles on Obama and always wants to be above Obama! He can't keep Obama's name out if his mouth! So if he was such a bad president then trump shouldn't have his name in his mouth like he does, or have I ever recalled a president in my lifetime rile against their predecessor like he does!
@Maxine Fields Obama didn't straight up lie to black people and tell us he was going to do this or that "specificly" for black people! He said he was the president of all the United States not just black people. And it's hard to do anything specifically for black people while you are trying to keep the country out of a depression! I don't want to hear about the alphabet community! He also helped with student loan forgiveness and with trying to keep people in their houses with home mortgage refinancing for those who were upside down with their home mortgages. He tried to do other things as well, but we were looking for "Super Shaft President," who stayed having to fight being ridiculed and having his wife called monkey and other things that were said that were racist and just plain disrespectful! You need to go back and take a look at what was going on during those eight years my sister! Black people must not remember how Obama was treated by Congress and the disrespect he was given!. Why are we so forgetful? Why don't we know how politics work? They even tried to say that Obama was going against the constitution when he tried to get things done. The Republicans wanted him impeached when he pushed through healthcare or better known as the Obama Care Act that some states would not adopt and those states have high medical costs and a lot of uninsured people! I knew as a black president he was going to catch hell, cause he was black and everybody was expecting, once again "Super Shaft President," which even I knew he wasn't going to be able to be or live up to! So let's just say don't be expecting too much from ANY president! Your local politics is REALLY what you should be focused on, cause that is what really has a DIRECT impact. What happens in Washington affects us a little later down the line if it gets through CONGRESS.
Dr. Cornell West has to be on the committee that are brainstorming adequate reparations and the distribution of wealth to the poor, middle class and the elderly. We have to address the inequality of wealth and education in the United States to African American people and communities!
Have you ever listen to a conversation that touched your soul or your whole being? I love everything you two brothers spoke of. I mean I can't even put into words how much I loved listening to this. Keep this coming and never stop your journey to what you want to accomplish. I love it!!!!!
No matter what your political affiliation; you're a human being! And if you weren't, you wouldn't be seeking out other voices & ideas!!! Thank you for engaging! We need each other for honest & open debate! That's the only way we'll see great change!
Me too.... But I think both parties and medias have lost the mark and are digging their heels in the trenches.... It won't be long we're following suit
political parties has nothing to do with connective tissues of humanity. Equity and policy is more important than sticking to a specific political party.
@@shaunettewilliams1456 You are right about that. Have you noticed that so much has become political in our society? The reason for my political affiliation statement is to show Roland is reaching more than the left wing Democrats. There is so much hate based on party affiliation. Unfortunately people like Roland and other use that hate for ratings.
BLACKJR Might I add, as an involved and enlightened Sister, witnessing and listening to strong Brothers engaging in conversations like this is also sexy personified! Go on wit it, my Kings!
CORNEL WEST is intelligent and well informed BUT PUT HIM IN THE ROOM WITH THE AVERAGE BLACK PERSON AND THEY WON'T KNOW WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT. AND THAT IS THE PROBLEM. 😥😥
Demair77 And I would only guess that your idea of black progression is somehow tied to greed on your own behalf, oh poor you. If I were a gambling man I would bet that you are a consecutive rethuglican (just putting it out there), which is the party of the me, my and mine. You are probably so worried about a person possibly blocking you from making a penny that you don't see the dollars rolling right on by. It's very evident that you missed the point and meaning of the whole conversation (greed tends to have that affect on people), which was needing and uplifting each other. See your greedy rethuglican talking points render you blind and deaf to anything except that they are spoon feeding you (for there benefit). All the years (many many years) I've known of Roland Martin he has always spoke about black achievement, progression and financial security and otherwise. What you probably don't like is his philosophy of "to much is given much is required", meaning now that you're eating invite some of your people to the table or better yet help and teach them how they can obtain there own table!!!!!! Out
@Chris Spencer I AM a MELONATED BLACK MAN..I WAS DEFINITELY A PRODUCT OF MY ENVIRONMENT;BORN IN THE GHETTO REALLY RAISED IN THE HOOD. THE EXPERIENCE OF THIS RACIST AGENDA WAS DEFINITELY A BIG PART OF MY YOUNG BLACK MINDSET WAS IMPRINTED BY A PROGRESSIVE MOVEMENT OF SUPPRESSION OF COLOR IN THIS COUNTRY HATE THE BLACK MELONATED PEOPLE WAS DEFINITELY THE CHOICE OF WHITE PEOPLE WHOM THEY ARE CHRISTIANS BUT THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE..LIKE A PHARISEE WHO WAS DEFINITELY A CONSPIRATOR OF THE MESSIAH
Read White Rage by Carolyn Anderson and watch the movie Deacons for Defense with Forrest Whitaker. Also look at books my James Baldwin and Toni Morrison
Thank you for this conversation. Every time I watch Roland he at least has substantive conversations.I earned an undergraduate degree in Journalism, but realized very quickly after graduation that most newsroom were not working for the good of black people,..
The impact of many of these rappers is more detrimental than the "conscious" rappers on our youth. I'm sick of people claiming that rap is good for us when it may be a good way for them to get rich but at the expense of our youth
It has been. Today’s rappers have destructed today’s youth and young people. The record companies only want a certain type of music and rappers on the label for a reason. And where are they now. Oh I know, they need to be careful.
This moment has spoken to us all over the world as black people this one WAS different cant explain why but even here in England they cant stop this conversation they cant shut us up no matter how angry the WS get their time in this world is numbered.
This has been building and building in blacks. We have been through enough abuse, not being heard, lies to and used. It’s got to the point where we all feel no more !!!!!!!
Cornel talking about Tupac and NWA, so so so SO amazing!!! Absolutely brilliant. I could literally listen to these two talk every single day and I’d learn something each time. Such a great interview
@dreammatch2000 Unfortunately that does not happen, especially if you are conservative. Bottom line is that every race lifts each other up, we don't even lift up our own family members.
In this day & age, I feel that most ppl are only "all for self." And with most oldheads, its either a liberal leftist "snowflake" Democrat, A "right-winger" conservative Republican, or a "socialist commie" Progressive, etc.. This is kinda off topic, but I really think there was such a deep seeded hatred for Obama, being our first black President. Ppl just festered, his whole presidency, with jealous, racist hate. That's probably how Trump won, bc he LOATHES Barry, and all the racists voted for him. trumps got all these racists comn out the woodwork! Ppl everywhere are constantly argumentative & spewing cruelty & hatred at each other. It is so depressing & tiresome - my whole life, I've been an advocate of equality, I've corrected ppl on the white washed narrative of this country's History, bc this fake empire has all been built on lies, treachery, deceit, falsehoods, etc. Keeping one man down, while the greedy white supremacist criminals get to live the American dream? It is time to put the trash out. I wish Dr. West was President!! :) I really wanted Bernie in there, he's the only honest in politics. He doesn't stop, every single day, hes out there fighting for all of us & the good of this country. How could the DNC screw Bernie over TWICE? And then give us Biden instead? come on, its so corrupt.
To see Roland take a back seat on his own show let's you know just how profoundly eloquent Dr. West is. Put him, Roland and Dr. Eddie Glaude jr. Together.
Jermal Mcmillan: Roland ,Dr.West and if he were still living the late great Dick Gregory!! what a show.👊👊

Nuff respect, for brother Cornell West for defending Minister Farrakhan. That's the way to "Stand in Unity" with courage, to set example for the youth !!! Peace & One Love 🙏🏿
I'm so excited, enlightened, in agreement with 98% of what have been spoken, taught and historically articulated here. They said it. I love the COURAGE and fortitude of these BROTHER'S WORK. KOOL.
@G Eak Each fraction need to cooperate within the Collective. Example of Fraction : Str8 People, Homosexual, Blue collar, White collar, Academic Class, Street Figure Class, Medical class, Transportation class, Musical class. What ever the fraction, it needs to be an established cooperation.
Dr Cornell West is One of the last RARE breeds. Speaks in truth, light and love! Always so articulate, fair and just. Much MUCH love to this brother and may his words of wisdom & knowledge live FOREVER ✊🏾❤️
I love Dr. West's lectures👍 He is a national treasure. I encourage my 14 year old to listen to him. Teaching the history that mainstream school neglects!👍
What a great show! Nothing like hearing the truth and commentary that is enlightning as well as informative. Key Point is we, as black people wanted to be treated with RESPECT AND DIGNITY!! So glad to have you as a media personallity that is standing steadfast to see that we get the real deal!
@@cactusqltr 60 years? What have you done in your 60 years besides turn up your nose at what "they" did or don't do. You are older than Roland and just a little younger than West.
Eyes that smile - Heart that Loves I have been in the Nation of Islam for 40 of those years! Working on behalf of Black folks and connecting with others who do the same! I have been a foster mother to many children, as well as an instructor and trainer for women and girls in the homemaking arts of cooking, cleaning and taking care of their families properly. Teaching them to quilt and mixed media art. I have worked with international teachers who do the same! What you been doing?
Roland is NOT black intelligence. He's a black gatekeeper for Neo-Liberalism which extracts black wealth and then says we'll make it up with "education" al a scam. Roland is not good. Cornell just gets along with everyone.
@@spalm3887 correct Dr west go on all the MSM to get heard and get his message across. People have to be more critical on what they hear not who is saying it.
This man, this Dr. West is loved for a reason...he is brilliant..as in for real...he is brialliant....What a hard worker to emulate and what purpose he must have to stay on the same road! RESPECT!
Gianna Floyd was absolutely right, her "Daddy changed the world." In the wake of her terrible loss, this is a great consolation to her and a reminder that he loves her, is still and always with her and that there is still good in this world♡
I have the utmost respect and love for Brother Cornel West, and to see Roland Martin conversing with him as a contemporary, exchanging ideas, and melding their consciousness across the board addressing the issues of reparations, and reconstructionism as it has to be, should be now, and how in the future it needs to become to alter reality in the black community for the better. It is refreshing to see the way these great minds work, pulling knowledge from the past, meshing it with the knowledge of today, and formulating a vision of a better day, where black Americans can operate on an equal playing field in this country, You don't know how many interviews I have seen where the host has just sat in silent awe of the mighty stream of intellect, and consciousness that Brother Cornel projects... yet Roland got in there as they say in the hood, "Got Knee Deep" in the conversation, and Dr West received as much intellectually as he gave here today. You both have forged a masterwork, dare I say a MASTERCLASS of how to tackle a problem, and what needs to be done to formulate the solution / solutions to make lasting corrections in a modular way.... This was so enjoyable to watch, I can't thank you enough for this video. Johnathan Static
Love You Dr. Cornel West. Privlidged to have a compassionate, intellectual wise, well versed Black man I can gain knowledge from quote learning how to hold my ground with ignorant people. Thank you Roland for having the Best on your podcasts. Much Appreciation. Stay Blessed. Strait from East HARLEM, NYC.
I hear 👂. It is good to see the love of brothers that work to a better day. ❤️. I see hearts that bleed and love and in strength and find a way to work a good work. Never forget the love while we work through the unlovely things that seek out our lives. I pray peace, strength, hope, grace, favor, wisdom, prosperity, effectiveness, comfort, charity, and most of all love over us all. There is much work to be done.
When a dying grown man beacon on his dead mama for help.... he’s actually calling on his creator and the response of the spiritual arrival of that response was thunderously all over the world.... it only happens only one time in history when Jesus call on his father on the cross. We know what happened after. Y’all remember?
I watched Cornell's action on his anti-Obama bus tour, and I was watching when he said he voted for Jill Stein. He comes off as being petty. Too many folks worship Cornell...not me!
@Jo Jo In all due respect that is not true. West and Tavis Smiley went on an anti-Obama campaign. They were pis'd off with President Obama behind really petty stuff. It had something about some tickets...something like. Google it! In 2016 we knew what a horrible trump is and West threw his vote away and admitted that he vote for Jill Stein...google it! As a lifelong democrat I don't know what west really stand for. He get way too much credit. Not with him.
@@cherylrhodes3107 hey Ms Cheryl-the issues with Cornell West and Obama began when West was a professor at Harvard and Obama was a law student. It's a long standing battle that is rooted to their personal history at Harvard. The other issue lies in the fact Barack's main constituency were White voters, but he used Black people's emotions to get into the White House. Cornell West and Tavis Smiley have their issues with Obama that lie in Obama's lack of ties to the African American experience. Outside of marrying Michelle, which gave him the credibility with black people he lacked, Obama has always lived a Caucasian life and is now passing as a brother when he is a Kenyan from Hawaiii. This is just my own observations of the situation.
I'm with you in spirit and soon in in in the "cause'! Love the interview with you and Dr. West! It was good to personally hear from him (myself), after all! (you know what I mean) ! I can not get enough of the two of you)! Reminds me of another Journalist who has left us needing until you all came along. ( radio commentator on WJJD). You know of who I speak! His name escapes me until just now, Lou Palmer!
Loved the interview!! Dr. West is one of the voices we need to elevate as a community. I still respect Tavis Smiley and his voice should be resuscitated. Baby boomer black folks need to look in the mirror about Obama's failings.
@G Eak If the infrastructure was controlled by GOP in Minnesota, George Floyd would have been ignored, and those 4 officers would be ready to return to work from their paid vacations and GoFundMe accounts.
if you didnt come away with something amazing from this conversation , you need to download it and play it until you do.... its packed with intellectual and spiritual golden nuggets
DropSixteenTV Tv, thank you, exactly. Cornel West is freedom fighter. Obama was a politician, and now becoming a member of the billionaire class. He's a sellout.
In the streets of DC Washington, their are young children 👶🏽 are being taken away from their home every week starting June the 7,14,and 21 in the south and northeast area’s of The City, The Mayor has reopened the city and the roads, The continue of the coronavirus hasn’t stop Mayor Brouwer of DC from open up Phases 2 causing the criminals loose in America roaming free, and The Families Suffer, let’s stop the madness of injustice and the mayor’s reopening turned against the injustice etc of the Children of the World
Yes Trained and Equipped Mentally and Spiritually. Withdrawing our unified Voice and Talents from their Economy and like Dr. Claude anderson speaks on Black 1st Economics.
Hi Roland my wife and I have been avid followers of you for years. We are going to send the $50 yearly donation because we need you and others like Dr. West who makes me get chills when he speaks because he is soooo freaking deep! Deeper than Atlantis! Thank you for being a voice for us. We would give more if we both were employed. We plan on doing this yearly. Our son is a Jr. at Howard University and he often laughs when he sees Dr. Carr on your show because he says "he don't play" lol!
HOW IS THIS FOOL PROGRESSIVE WHEN HE DOES EVERYTHING TO HURT THE POOR .LIKE VOTING FOR JILL STEIN KNOWING SHE DIDN'T HAVE 1 CHANCE OF WINNING WITH HER RUSSIAN AGENT ASS SITTING @ THE TABLE WITH PUTIN . MEANY POOR PEOPLE HAVE BEEN HURT BY TRUMP. 8 MILLION POOR KIDS CUT FROM HEALTHCARE , 1 MILLION POOR KIDS CUT FROM SCHOOL LUNCH , SUPREME COURT AND LOWER COURTS PACKED WITH ALT RIGHT JUDGES WHO WOULDN'T GIVE A BLACK PERSON A DRINK OF WATER IF HE OR SHE WAS DYING . WEST IS A THROW THE BABY OUT WITH THE BATH WATER KIND OF FOOL .HE CAN DO THAT CAUSE HE GOT A GREAT JOB AND ANYWAY HE VOTES WON'T HURT HIM .WAKE UP BLACK POOR PEOPLE .
@@blacksantaria3642 I don't agree with voting third party for president, I agree with voting Democratic even if I don't like the candidate for purposes of harm reduction but to imply Dr. West isn't progressive because of his inability to see the forest for the trees in 2016 is completely asinine.
Amen, Amen, and Amen!!!! We must care enough about our agenda to demand that the focus stays ONLY on it until victory is won. That is the formula. That is exactly how other groups have been successful both politically and economically in this country. If we allow anything else (any other agenda) to be our focus and fight, we will squander away this precious moment in history and our children will be right back here in 50 years. Let us ask the Lord to strengthen our discernment, wisdom, and knowledge.
I need to go back and write down all of these books down. I wish I had the ability to remember and recall all of these facts like they do . My brain just doesn’t work like that for some reason. Makes me so sad 😔
I’ve been hearing Minister Farrakhan since back in the early 70’s while in JHS, growing up in NYC. What I admire about the man is not his beliefs, but his consistency. In my worldview, character is not dependent so much on what a man believes but on what MLK would call the “content of a man’s character”. And that I believe Minister Farrakhan’s has a lot of. So does Mr. West. Men of character are consistent in their judgment, whether it be about black or a white person. In Minster Farrakhan’s world view what is wrong in a white person is also wrong in a black person. He doesn’t judge democrats and republicans using different standards. He will call out a republican for the wicked things he believes the republican has done wrong but he will also call out democrats… Let’s not forget “Hillary is a wicked woman”. Unlike Roland that you never know what will come out of his mouth. He may one day criticize a white republican for about anything under the sun, but a week later when a black democrat does or says exactly the same thing he will rationalize it as good or of no importance, and of course his most often response is to not even mention it at all. The reason Minister Farrakhan in my opinion is so maligned in media is because he has a message of empowerment for blacks not of victimhood, or of “you can’t do anything unless the white man gives you this or that or does this or that for you”. The white democrats will do anything to prevent blacks from believing they could do anything for themselves without their help and intervention. Imagine how far blacks could go and the great things they could achieve (like Minister Farrakhan believes they can) if they got all their doctors, lawyers, business people, scientists, athletes, millionaires, money and talent and got together to do something for themselves without the help of the white democrats or white people in general… Maybe one day people like Roland, Maxine, Sharpton, Dyson and on and on will get out of their way with their victimhood message of dependence on white democrats.
Farrakhan helped murder Malcolm. He, in my opinion, is a hypocrite, a traitor and an evil man. Smiling in Malcolm X face, while he's running back to the...hmpf...great Elijah Mohammed sp?with lies. He is guilty, again imo, of conspiracy to commit murder.
@@annaarrowood9778 How dare you speak ill of The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan! He had nothing to do with Minister Malcolm's death, that was your evil, demonic, anti-black, arm of white supremacy, FBI, CIA, government agency's. Do not speak on subjects you know nothing about.. Damn we cant get away from yaw any space we go! Dont u have a white RUclips page u can take all this negative ass, uninformed bs..go away..

@@shaunettewilliams1456 You are right about that. Have you noticed that so much has become political in our society? The reason for my political affiliation statement is to show Roland is reaching more than the left wing Democrats. There is so much hate based on party affiliation. Unfortunately people like Roland and other use that hate for ratings.
@@curtw878 absolutely.... the left has a tendency to politicize everything and Republicans politicize stupid shit
LOVE HEARING THE EDUCATED AND ARTICULATE BROTHA’S KEEP’N IT💯
BLACKJR Might I add, as an involved and enlightened Sister, witnessing and listening to strong Brothers engaging in conversations like this is also sexy personified! Go on wit it, my Kings!
@@gymeni Roland Martin is the enemy of Black progression. I cant lower the ball in labeling him a king or calling him intelligent at all.
Demair77 ALWAYS ONE OF YOU OUT’VE THE REST🙄
CORNEL WEST is intelligent and well informed BUT PUT HIM IN THE ROOM WITH THE AVERAGE BLACK PERSON AND THEY WON'T KNOW WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT. AND THAT IS THE PROBLEM. 😥😥
Demair77
And I would only guess that your idea of black progression is somehow tied to greed on your own behalf, oh poor you. If I were a gambling man I would bet that you are a consecutive rethuglican (just putting it out there), which is the party of the me, my and mine. You are probably so worried about a person possibly blocking you from making a penny that you don't see the dollars rolling right on by. It's very evident that you missed the point and meaning of the whole conversation (greed tends to have that affect on people), which was needing and uplifting each other. See your greedy rethuglican talking points render you blind and deaf to anything except that they are spoon feeding you (for there benefit). All the years (many many years) I've known of Roland Martin he has always spoke about black achievement, progression and financial security and otherwise. What you probably don't like is his philosophy of "to much is given much is required", meaning now that you're eating invite some of your people to the table or better yet help and teach them how they can obtain there own table!!!!!!
Out
I can watch Roman Martin and Dr Cornell west talk for hours. This was a great episode
It's Roland lol
So donate.
Great stuff Roland. I always love hearing from Dr. Cornel West.
Please don’t forget about Dr. Claude Anderson who’s been talking about reparations for over 40 years!
He's the Truth
Yea him and roland would clash they talk the same but roland and him have 2 different ideology
NCORBA as an organization did more to push reparations going back to the mid 80's.
Claude Anderson is definitely the 🐐
I love these black intellectual discussions. Roland you should put together a reading list for people like me who wanna learn more.

@Chris Spencer WHO Are you referring to marrying a white woman.?
@Chris Spencer I AM a MELONATED BLACK MAN..I WAS DEFINITELY A PRODUCT OF MY ENVIRONMENT;BORN IN THE GHETTO REALLY RAISED IN THE HOOD. THE EXPERIENCE OF THIS RACIST AGENDA WAS DEFINITELY A BIG PART OF MY YOUNG BLACK MINDSET WAS IMPRINTED BY A PROGRESSIVE MOVEMENT OF SUPPRESSION OF COLOR IN THIS COUNTRY HATE THE BLACK MELONATED PEOPLE WAS DEFINITELY THE CHOICE OF WHITE PEOPLE WHOM THEY ARE CHRISTIANS BUT THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE..LIKE A PHARISEE WHO WAS DEFINITELY A CONSPIRATOR OF THE MESSIAH
Read White Rage by Carolyn Anderson and watch the movie Deacons for Defense with Forrest Whitaker. Also look at books my James Baldwin and Toni Morrison
Willie Sullivan dr. West is married to a white woman.
I could listen to Dr. Cornel west talk for days. Love you my brother hope some day to be able to listen to you live.
Thank you for this conversation. Every time I watch Roland he at least has substantive conversations.I earned an undergraduate degree in Journalism, but realized very quickly after graduation that most newsroom were not working for the good of black people,..
Damn! You hit it on the head about full citizenship. I never viewed it that way. Great, Great, Great point!
I, too, am going to borrow this breakdown from the powerful Dr. West!
True. We are still 2nd. Class citizens in the USA.
The impact of many of these rappers is more detrimental than the "conscious" rappers on our youth. I'm sick of people claiming that rap is good for us when it may be a good way for them to get rich but at the expense of our youth
It has been. Today’s rappers have destructed today’s youth and young people. The record companies only want a certain type of music and rappers on the label for a reason. And where are they now. Oh I know, they need to be careful.
This moment has spoken to us all over the world as black people this one WAS different cant explain why but even here in England they cant stop this conversation they cant shut us up no matter how angry the WS get their time in this world is numbered.
Yes!' A fact!"
This has been building and building in blacks. We have been through enough abuse, not being heard, lies to and used. It’s got to the point where we all feel no more !!!!!!!
Wickedness of oppression is coming to an end. Judgement is coming sooner than most thinks.
Criminals started a dominoe effect.
Cornel talking about Tupac and NWA, so so so SO amazing!!! Absolutely brilliant.
I could literally listen to these two talk every single day and I’d learn something each time. Such a great interview
We need to stick up for each other even when we disagree.

In this day & age, I feel that most ppl are only "all for self."
And with most oldheads, its either a liberal leftist "snowflake" Democrat, A "right-winger" conservative Republican, or a "socialist commie" Progressive, etc..
This is kinda off topic, but I really think there was such a deep seeded hatred for Obama, being our first black President. Ppl just festered, his whole presidency, with jealous, racist hate. That's probably how Trump won, bc he LOATHES Barry, and all the racists voted for him.
trumps got all these racists comn out the woodwork! Ppl everywhere are constantly argumentative & spewing cruelty & hatred at each other. It is so depressing & tiresome - my whole life, I've been an advocate of equality, I've corrected ppl on the white washed narrative of this country's History, bc this fake empire has all been built on lies, treachery, deceit, falsehoods, etc. Keeping one man down, while the greedy white supremacist criminals get to live the American dream?
It is time to put the trash out. I wish Dr. West was President!! :)
I really wanted Bernie in there, he's the only honest in politics. He doesn't stop, every single day, hes out there fighting for all of us & the good of this country. How could the DNC screw Bernie over TWICE?
And then give us Biden instead? come on, its so corrupt.
@@harlowjademermaid1882 totally with you on everything you said!
To see Roland take a back seat on his own show let's you know just how profoundly eloquent Dr. West is. Put him, Roland and Dr. Eddie Glaude jr. Together.

I'm so excited, enlightened, in agreement with 98% of what have been spoken, taught and historically articulated here. They said it. I love the COURAGE and fortitude of these BROTHER'S WORK. KOOL.

Speak for yourself, stop putting every horrible trait on the black community as a whole.
Dr Cornell West is One of the last RARE breeds. Speaks in truth, light and love! Always so articulate, fair and just. Much MUCH love to this brother and may his words of wisdom & knowledge live FOREVER ✊🏾❤️
I love Dr. West's lectures👍 He is a national treasure. I encourage my 14 year old to listen to him. Teaching the history that mainstream school neglects!👍
Dr. West, I am one who truly appreciated your and Tavis’s critique of Pres. Obama. The both of you were on point!
What a great show! Nothing like hearing the truth and commentary that is enlightning as well as informative. Key Point is we, as black people wanted to be treated with RESPECT AND DIGNITY!! So glad to have you as a media personallity that is standing steadfast to see that we get the real deal!
Love Supreme, Roland! If feels like that to be Young, Gifted and Black!!!!
I love hearing black intelligence debating strategy
That's all they do! The 60 years I been alive that's all they been doing!
@@cactusqltr 60 years? What have you done in your 60 years besides turn up your nose at what "they" did or don't do. You are older than Roland and just a little younger than West.

I have been a foster mother to many children, as well as an instructor and trainer for women and girls in the homemaking arts of cooking, cleaning and taking care of their families properly. Teaching them to quilt and mixed media art. I have worked with international teachers who do the same! What you been doing?
Roland is NOT black intelligence. He's a black gatekeeper for Neo-Liberalism which extracts black wealth and then says we'll make it up with "education" al a scam. Roland is not good. Cornell just gets along with everyone.
@@spalm3887 correct Dr west go on all the MSM to get heard and get his message across. People have to be more critical on what they hear not who is saying it.
LOVE THIS INTERVIEW/SYMPOSIUM with Dr West. Roland you know you da ditty BOMB. 💘
I believe it is necessary for Black people to have a variety of Leaders with varied views and strengths. All of them are greatly neccessary!!
This man, this Dr. West is loved for a reason...he is brilliant..as in for real...he is brialliant....What a hard worker to emulate and what purpose he must have to stay on the same road! RESPECT!
Gianna Floyd was absolutely right, her "Daddy changed the world." In the wake of her terrible loss, this is a great consolation to her and a reminder that he loves her, is still and always with her and that there is still good in this world♡
I have the utmost respect and love for Brother Cornel West, and to see Roland Martin conversing with him as a contemporary, exchanging ideas, and melding their consciousness across the board addressing the issues of reparations, and reconstructionism as it has to be, should be now, and how in the future it needs to become to alter reality in the black community for the better.
It is refreshing to see the way these great minds work, pulling knowledge from the past, meshing it with the knowledge of today, and formulating a vision of a better day, where black Americans can operate on an equal playing field in this country, You don't know how many interviews I have seen where the host has just sat in silent awe of the mighty stream of intellect, and consciousness that Brother Cornel projects... yet Roland got in there as they say in the hood, "Got Knee Deep" in the conversation, and Dr West received as much intellectually as he gave here today.
You both have forged a masterwork, dare I say a MASTERCLASS of how to tackle a problem, and what needs to be done to formulate the solution / solutions to make lasting corrections in a modular way....
This was so enjoyable to watch, I can't thank you enough for this video.

Keep on, keepin on... Really glad this interview took place.
Love You Dr. Cornel West. Privlidged to have a compassionate, intellectual wise, well versed Black man I can gain knowledge from quote learning how to hold my ground with ignorant people.
Thank you Roland for having the Best on your podcasts. Much Appreciation. Stay Blessed.

Two of my favorite people, both knowledgeable and brilliant...great interview with Dr. West and Uncle Ro-Ro.
Thank you, Brother Roland for providing us the opportunity to hear Dr. West explain his criticism of our beloved Barack Obama
I hear 👂. It is good to see the love of brothers that work to a better day. ❤️. I see hearts that bleed and love and in strength and find a way to work a good work. Never forget the love while we work through the unlovely things that seek out our lives. I pray peace, strength, hope, grace, favor, wisdom, prosperity, effectiveness, comfort, charity, and most of all love over us all. There is much work to be done.
Best guest you've had on since I started watching.
Thanks for making the time to create Your ViDz!!!... This was an OUTSTANDiNG interview!!... Thank You!!
When a dying grown man beacon on his dead mama for help.... he’s actually calling on his creator and the response of the spiritual arrival of that response was thunderously all over the world.... it only happens only one time in history when Jesus call on his father on the cross. We know what happened after. Y’all remember?
So beautiful listening to these two brothers. Wow, so enlightening.
I agree with Dr. Cornel West on his comments about Obama...people need to stop with the idol worship and look at the person's actions
I watched Cornell's action on his anti-Obama bus tour, and I was watching when he said he voted for Jill Stein. He comes off as being petty. Too many folks worship Cornell...not me!
@Jo Jo In all due respect that is not true. West and Tavis Smiley went on an anti-Obama campaign. They were pis'd off with President Obama behind really petty stuff. It had something about some tickets...something like. Google it!
In 2016 we knew what a horrible trump is
and West threw his vote away and admitted that he vote for Jill Stein...google it! As a lifelong democrat I don't know what west really stand for. He get way too much credit. Not with him.
@@cherylrhodes3107 hey Ms Cheryl-the issues with Cornell West and Obama began when West was a professor at Harvard and Obama was a law student. It's a long standing battle that is rooted to their personal history at Harvard. The other issue lies in the fact Barack's main constituency were White voters, but he used Black people's emotions to get into the White House. Cornell West and Tavis Smiley have their issues with Obama that lie in Obama's lack of ties to the African American experience. Outside of marrying Michelle, which gave him the credibility with black people he lacked, Obama has always lived a Caucasian life and is now passing as a brother when he is a Kenyan from Hawaiii. This is just my own observations of the situation.
@Jo Jo You can find it if you look for it. If you blindsided will cornell...more than likely you choose not to seek the truth.
@Jo Jo are you a white Supremist or just a sell out?
I'm with you in spirit and soon in in in the "cause'! Love the interview with you and Dr. West! It was good to personally hear from him (myself), after all! (you know what I mean) ! I can not get enough of the two of you)! Reminds me of another Journalist who has left us needing until you all came along. ( radio commentator on WJJD). You know of who I speak! His name escapes me until just now, Lou Palmer!
Loved the interview!! Dr. West is one of the voices we need to elevate as a community. I still respect Tavis Smiley and his voice should be resuscitated. Baby boomer black folks need to look in the mirror about Obama's failings.
EXACTLY!!
Hershell Tidwell There was not many failings
@G Eak If the infrastructure was controlled by GOP in Minnesota, George Floyd would have been ignored, and those 4 officers would be ready to return to work from their paid vacations and GoFundMe accounts.
You done good, Mr. Martin. Dr. West is the quintessential truthteller. Thanks for letting him share his light.
Why can’t we disagree, and still Love and Respect Each Other!!!....
Wonderful conversation. Thank you.
if you didnt come away with something amazing from this conversation , you need to download it and play it until you do.... its packed with intellectual and spiritual golden nuggets
Thank you for having Dr.West on your show. Two highly intelligent men that i respect having a conversation.
Such an important, very mind-opening and inspiring conversation! Thanks toDr Cornel West and Roland Martin tomake it happen!
I love me some Dr West. He always gives the Facts. Keep speaking the Truth Bro. West.
Dr West is so real love this Brother
I love Cornel, so good to see him on Roland’s show and the mutual respect they have for each other. ✌️
Obama came and went with little results for black ppl... Yet Cornel still fighting the good fight.
DropSixteenTV Tv, thank you, exactly. Cornel West is freedom fighter. Obama was a politician, and now becoming a member of the billionaire class. He's a sellout.
@Black Minoan Obama is a Black community hater. Blacks that support Obama is the DNC version of Candace Owens.

Hi Roland my wife and I have been avid followers of you for years. We are going to send the $50 yearly donation because we need you and others like Dr. West who makes me get chills when he speaks because he is soooo freaking deep! Deeper than Atlantis!

Our son is a Jr. at Howard University and he often laughs when he sees Dr. Carr on your show because he says "he don't play" lol!
Oh and tavis was displaying the courage on point that needs to be heard
Didn't realize how much I needed to hear these two powerful black voices have this discussion. Thank you Brother Roland and thank you Brother West.
Finally Roland has a black progressive on
HOW IS THIS FOOL PROGRESSIVE WHEN HE DOES EVERYTHING TO HURT THE POOR .LIKE VOTING FOR JILL STEIN KNOWING SHE DIDN'T HAVE 1 CHANCE OF WINNING WITH HER RUSSIAN AGENT ASS SITTING @ THE TABLE WITH PUTIN . MEANY POOR PEOPLE HAVE BEEN HURT BY TRUMP. 8 MILLION POOR KIDS CUT FROM HEALTHCARE , 1 MILLION POOR KIDS CUT FROM SCHOOL LUNCH , SUPREME COURT AND LOWER COURTS PACKED WITH ALT RIGHT JUDGES WHO WOULDN'T GIVE A BLACK PERSON A DRINK OF WATER IF HE OR SHE WAS DYING . WEST IS A THROW THE BABY OUT WITH THE BATH WATER KIND OF FOOL .HE CAN DO THAT CAUSE HE GOT A GREAT JOB AND ANYWAY HE VOTES WON'T HURT HIM .WAKE UP BLACK POOR PEOPLE .
@@blacksantaria3642 I don't agree with voting third party for president, I agree with voting Democratic even if I don't like the candidate for purposes of harm reduction but to imply Dr. West isn't progressive because of his inability to see the forest for the trees in 2016 is completely asinine.
Mr. Martin as always your interviews are very profound, loved it. I received education, realization and exclusivity.
The Brown & LGBTQ communities should be left out of the Black conversation PERIOD. After our problem is solved then others may have their opportunity
💯💯💯💯
The tanned community feel privileged too
Amen, Amen, and Amen!!!! We must care enough about our agenda to demand that the focus stays ONLY on it until victory is won. That is the formula. That is exactly how other groups have been successful both politically and economically in this country. If we allow anything else (any other agenda) to be our focus and fight, we will squander away this precious moment in history and our children will be right back here in 50 years. Let us ask the Lord to strengthen our discernment, wisdom, and knowledge.

This was a really good Interview. I dont see Roland smile often but when he does he lights up the room. Dr. West can do that to u though, lol
The man is so wise I love to be in his classroom!God bless him I wish him good health and long life !
I’ve been hearing Minister Farrakhan since back in the early 70’s while in JHS, growing up in NYC. What I admire about the man is not his beliefs, but his consistency. In my worldview, character is not dependent so much on what a man believes but on what MLK would call the “content of a man’s character”. And that I believe Minister Farrakhan’s has a lot of. So does Mr. West. Men of character are consistent in their judgment, whether it be about black or a white person. In Minster Farrakhan’s world view what is wrong in a white person is also wrong in a black person. He doesn’t judge democrats and republicans using different standards. He will call out a republican for the wicked things he believes the republican has done wrong but he will also call out democrats… Let’s not forget “Hillary is a wicked woman”. Unlike Roland that you never know what will come out of his mouth. He may one day criticize a white republican for about anything under the sun, but a week later when a black democrat does or says exactly the same thing he will rationalize it as good or of no importance, and of course his most often response is to not even mention it at all. The reason Minister Farrakhan in my opinion is so maligned in media is because he has a message of empowerment for blacks not of victimhood, or of “you can’t do anything unless the white man gives you this or that or does this or that for you”. The white democrats will do anything to prevent blacks from believing they could do anything for themselves without their help and intervention. Imagine how far blacks could go and the great things they could achieve (like Minister Farrakhan believes they can) if they got all their doctors, lawyers, business people, scientists, athletes, millionaires, money and talent and got together to do something for themselves without the help of the white democrats or white people in general… Maybe one day people like Roland, Maxine, Sharpton, Dyson and on and on will get out of their way with their victimhood message of dependence on white democrats.
Farrakhan helped murder Malcolm. He, in my opinion, is a hypocrite, a traitor and an evil man. Smiling in Malcolm X face, while he's running back to the...hmpf...great Elijah Mohammed sp?with lies. He is guilty, again imo, of conspiracy to commit murder.
@@annaarrowood9778
How dare you speak ill of The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan! He had nothing to do with Minister Malcolm's death, that was your evil, demonic, anti-black, arm of white supremacy, FBI, CIA, government agency's. Do not speak on subjects you know nothing about.. Damn we cant get away from yaw any space we go! Dont u have a white RUclips page u can take all this negative ass, uninformed bs..go away..
I stand by what I said he's an evil bad man. Also he's a racist you're not going to get me to believe that he's going to have the same you know what I'm not even going to get into this cuz y'all ain't going to trigger me you don't even know me okay.
