- Опубликовано: 19 окт 2024
- July 4, 2022, marks a unique point in U.S. history - the nation has existed for 246 years, the same amount of time that slavery lasted first in the colonies and then the states after the Revolutionary War. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author Isabel Wilkerson joins MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell to discuss the erasure of that history saying, “The vast majority of people of African descent who lived on this soil did not live with the freedoms that we connect to what it means to be an American citizen.” » Subscribe to MSNBC: on.msnbc.com/Su...

Include most of the media, they don’t know it either
They know...
They play they're part.
Infotainment sold us the criminals, in the first place.
They're all complicit.
Trial by infotainment is not in the Constitution.
Demand justice!
Alot of Russian and MAGA bots infesting the comments in here.
Democrats supported slavery then, and say that Clarence Thomas is a race traitor now.
Explain how those two are not the same thing
@@aishabintabubakr4944 Another dumb right winger trying to push this narrative like both parties never shifted in ideals in those 400+ years. Nice strawman tho
Well said. The current events have been an education for many.

We must demand justice.
Trial by infotainment is just a coverup.
They do it, everytime.
Whenever the fix is in...
Infotainment sold us Trump.
They can't expose the truth of it!
quoting history does not change it as you so rightly state. But it’s an indication that the issue of racism has NEVER been resolved and continues. My take is this. The kkk and other racist organisations went underground. They reviewed their tactics and took another approach. They now have jobs in high power, in the churches in the forces etc. their ideals are still prevalent in a country that’s in total denial. The result was trump becoming president, the world is well aware of what he stands for and who he is, but his kind and his state of mind has multiplied amongst the population. From holistic point of view it’s supposed to happen. Because now his kind have clearly revealed their hand and there is nooooo doubt they are racists. Including the Republican Party. Good thing is it’s natures way to start to heal. A chance to deal with this shlt. Once again. If something is not in sync with nature it will bring about death and harm. So let the healing begin. Will take a long time, but we do what we do always for the next generation and beyond.

Your assessment is reasonable.
Demanding justice is the answer.
They are not just racist's.
They are bigots of all stripes.
All marginalized groups must recognize justice, as their binding purpose.
Minorities, woman, LGBTQ community, impoverished, outsourced or falsely imprisoned - all have a common purpose. We must stamp out the tyrant.
Justice is the answer.
Demand justice now!

@Bryan, that is the only "black" person you will ever agree with, because he carries your view, if he did not carry your views, you would not be quoting him.
@@mikeaskme3530 sen. Tim Scott, Candace owens, MANY OTHER FREE THINKING BLACK PEOPLE also agree. You are truly racist if you think black people can only think and vote one way.
@@mikeaskme3530 Exactly
@@mikeaskme3530 He probably agrees with Candace Owens also
@Tessmage Tessera calm down from what?
Over and over in these important conversations about rights and freedoms, I almost NEVER hear the chronically ill and disabled mentioned, yet this community remains the most marginalized and discriminated against of all. The most basic rights to humane, ethical palliative care, are currently being denied to millions. Many are committing suicide because they can no longer bear the unbearable physical pain that they can no longer get humane treatment for. Others are dying early, preventable deaths via heart attacks, strokes, and endocrine failure, directly due to severe, untreated physical pain.
The malfeasance is off the charts, while they play trial by infotainment.
The judicial deluge gives Congress an excuse to not take calls.
Good luck getting anything accomplished...
It's by design!
👍👍👍👍
The healthcare system in your country is appalling. It is based on privilege and inequality.
i hear you...but I have no voice to effect...change .just my voice ...here !
@@mrarchangel4457 Keep speaking out. Write to your lawmakers. Join with like minded groups that have power to advocate. Never give up. Pass that fire to the next generation.
There was slavery in Europe and everywhere else. So what?! Americans fought and died to free the slaves. Don’t blame your own shortcomings on the people who have nothing to do with slavery that ended 150 years ago before your great parents were alive.
The richest king in world history Mansa Musa earned his money off the slave trade...and compare where the Malian kingdom was to the slave ports of the 1700s
And this is the country that dictates to others about Democracy
So go to other countries, you will be begging like the basketball player wanting to come home. Imperfect but god bless the USA 🇺🇸
Hi Isabel. I am such a fan. love your work.
Good convo 🇺🇸❤️
Correction to the headline. It’s not that they don’t know, but they don’t want to know! Ignorance is a powerful tool to be used by such individuals as trump to control.
So is play acting and propaganda.
Infotainment sold us the criminals.
They're in damage control mode, now.
Trial by infotainment is not in the Constitution.
Demand justice!

We know. We just don't care and have moved on.
All the major plantations from the Civil War were destroyed. Our country was a bunch of colonies that occupied the buildings present.
Time to move on. 99% of white people did not own slaves
@@bryan805 Quoting Sowell doesn't change history or the aftermath of slavery.

And let me guess, you're here to educate us on how terrible we are.
Yup.
Except slavery lasted for thousands of years. And it wasn’t just Africans
Who in American schools who wasn't sleeping through class hasn't been taught about racism and slavery in American history? 50 years ago as a child, the schools I attended were teaching children about these historical and current realities. Stop with the "Americans don't know the nations full history" nonsense.
The history you learned 50 years ago is a lot different than what is being taught today
They don't really want to know
Did she have a point to make besides "slavery?"

So what? So what that a part of the Atlantic slave trade lasted for 246 years? What does that matter? Why should that fact effect the lives of people who played no role in any of it? If you want to "end racism," you're gonna need more than a guilt trip.
So you are saying most Americans are stupid? You have to tell us everything, huh?
Wilkerson is brilliant
Most Americans don't know any of it.
most americans don't know a lot of stuff, like their rights
Was replacement theory derived from and/or because of their own insecurities?
Three million illegal immigrants have infiltrated the United States in the last 18 months. The problem with Americans is they have eyes so they can see.
The idiocy of this woman is astounding. Literally 1:17 she is already wrong.
1619-1776 This was England.
1776-1783 American Revolution (revolutionary government)
1783-1789 Articles of Confederation.
1789-1861 US United
1861-1865 Civil War
1865-present US United again.
All slavery was in the South.
Northern states wanted full citizenship with full rights, but South didn't. That is what the 3/5 compromise was all about
This is B.S.
Democrat failure and disgrace on full display Let's go Brandon
This obsession has to end.
What obsession

If all I cared about American history was the price of gasoline I'd just shut my mouth. That depth of commitment to knowledge isn't anything worth bragging about.
