"Compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not to who someone else is today."
So true!!
Yup people this days dont see there mistake but they see others and judge them
Pretty sure that is a standard Jordan Peterson line.
@@dennisdose5697 Yep, and a pretty good one at that.
Coleman...don't ever stop what you are doing.
@Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 nothing like calling someone who looks at the positives and points out statistical manipulation and political bias as racist.
Only half black and speaks Spanish. Must be a racist. Only I'm allowed to obsess about race. Lmao
Absentee father? You mean just like 70% of all black americans? I'm sure those guys are all black hating Spanish speaking racists too right?
@Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 Since you're so sure it's wrong, then tell us all what is right.
@Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 So you didn't watch this clip then?
@Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 OK, Thanks.
@Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 You are a very sad person. This mam is quoting facts and numbers which i am quite sure you didn't verify before bashing him. Anytime A Black doesn't subscribe to victimhoood you Doom and Gloom candidates are so quick to discredit them . That is pathetic.
He's telling a very different and hopeful narrative. It's one worth sharing.
I just did. I've not heard these stats from anyone else. Consequently I've had a perspective change.
He is just saying what your ears want to hear. Because in your heart you dont want to believe this narrative about this nation. Albeit he has melanin he is not one of us and is simply interested in being another immigrant to be issued a place by you on the totem pole of the American dream with our place secured at the bottom undergirding the system as we have for 400 so years. So he uses his fathers phenotype and his conservative views to make room for himself with conservative whites in America who dont understand the nuance between our people and accepts every melanated person as a black person. For example albeit he is loved by many of us, Barak Obama is not one of us.
@Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 JLP is black, as the ace of spades as he's fond of calling himself. So having the wrong tought process but the right parentage makes him and other's non-black?
I am going to listen to this young man now but I know he is lying. I'm too deep into the American black affairs to know that. He is just narrating a script from work like Candace Owens. That is what loyalty to an employer looks like. I don't mind his blackness, he is black but his views are of his employers. It's voting time by the way if anyone has forgotten.
@@mikemcmullin149 Again you dont understand the nuance. He is not black. He is Latino. He, like Kamala, Obama and many others cloak themselves in blackness for political expediency. The sever the exact same function to this body that a virus does. Their appearance confuses the cell wall but once inside rewrite the code to accomplish its ends. Let me be clear, being black is synonymous with being an ADOS in this discussion. So no he is not black.
RUclips needs to recommend this video to everyone who searches for information about these protests and riots.
Surprised RUclips hasn't deleted it!
I'm from germany and watched a lot of videos on the protest to understand what's going on.
After a week of watching interviews on very different points of view about the topic this vids startet popping up in my recommendations and I'm glad I found them.
@@thepaddywag6079 thats awesome, gives me hope!
How does what he say disprove police brutality and a corrupt police system?
@@stefanlangenhoven78 You just used a textbook example of a loaded question. Nothing in my comment would suggest that was the point of what I said.
Coleman is like a man from an earlier era. So proud to see someone telling the culture what they know deeply inside.
Oh yeah he definitely has opinions of an "earlier era" 😂🤣🤣 moronic wonder why he says these things white people like to hear 🤔 hmmm it's almost like he's funded by a right wing billionaire or something hmmm that's weird 🤔
As soon as he turns 35, we need to elect this guy to be president.
Robin Beers He has said he doesn’t want anything to fo with politics - and hopefully he stays that way.
@@skepto-o-punk8286 That's a shame. He would make a great statesman. Well, I'm sure he will find some valuable way to contribute to society.
@Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 Wow. That's a lot of hate going on there.
Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 I’d tell you to seek professional help but no shrink on the planet can “cure” a willfully blind ideologue.
@Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 Why the anti Puerto Rican prejudice? A lot of African American people are of mixed heritage as are almost all Americans. Does one have to be a "pure blood" ADOS in order to have an opinion?
"there's virtually no political incentive to note progress when it happens". This!
Amen. The fuel of politics is discontent, envy, and controversy. Unfortunately progress the fuel of progress is data, innovation and sacrifice.
This absolutely not true. 'under president Trump the unemplyoement of black Africans dropped significantly' is a statement you will see plenty of more right leaning people make. That is using 'progress' as a political ploy.
"If we don't know the triumphs or our recent history we are doomed not to repeat them" That is genius!!!!
@fynes leigh directly immediately personally? Geez dude just pick one adjective, can't even understand your point
Thank you Mr, Hughes. America absolutely needs your measured voice of sanity. Please keep at it.
Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 Reparations? 🙄
Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 it’s spelled “liar”
Nat Turner's Revolt ADOS you entirely missed coleman’s point man. Stop looking at gaps between races and start looking at progress of your own race compared earlier periods of time before you call the entire system racist that needs to be burned to the ground
Nat Turner's Revolt ADOS Seek out a board qualified shrink. Pull up a couch and start focusing on your own insanity because you’re a train-wreck.
Whether Hughe’s ancestors came directly to the US from Africa or via a more circuitous route is absolutely pointless. Your ideology that believes racism is so “systemic” and pushes the BS of “White Privilege” certainly doesn’t make room for analyzing someone’s family tree. This shallow ideology is ALL about skin color. Hughes physicality looks black so he should be experiencing all the same debilitating, life-stunting ill effects of “systemic racism” in America as you, so why isn’t he?
Nat Turner's Revolt ADOS Once again. You need less Critical Race Theory and much, much more psychiatric help.
“Reparations” if they were paid were paid to living, breathing people who actually personally experienced oppression, torture, theft of property, etc.
How long did you personally actually live as a slave on a plantation?
This man is what someone from the future will sound like.
@Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 I guess you do not like to work hard? Marques Brownlee is fake also? NERD is also fake? Derrick May is fake?
Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 you haven’t disputed any facts he’s layed out backed up by statistics. Instead u try to discredit him and deny his blackness because you say his father was absentee n his mother is Puerto Rican. You even hold the fact that he speaks Spanish against him as if being bilingual is a negative. Sounds like a sound argument
@James Franko you are right. That Kofi dude is totally pissed off that this truth is getting out there. I wonder who paid him to put his graffiti all over this video?
@Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 pero tu estas bien de la cabeza? Queremos dados. Si no lo tienes, cállate!
@Kofi Prempeh #ADOS 2020 soy africano, Ghanés que vive en España.
Stop it! Positivity and confidence doesn't sell. Needs more hysteria and fear. lol
lol. Sadly.
So sad yet so true
Exactly lol
It just did.
Lolol riighht
That guy is only 23 and speaks with so much poise and intellectual knowledge.
Gifted!!! God is merciful to us- to send us such an intelligent articulate and on top of that very ha done!!
@fynes leigh Knowledge of the lyrics of every song by a pop band?
@fynes leigh "One day you might be able to do is whole sentence". Shut the fuck up, man. Even Hemingway used sentence fragments, and he didn't have piss-poor grammar like you.
@fynes leigh Only silly old women care about grammar? But you care about sentence fragments, and that is grammar, you stupid goat. It's impolite to me (and old women) to call me a silly old woman. That's not behaviour befitting someone with manners is it? I haven't lost my temper; I am just reproaching you for your blatant hypocrisy and fatuity.
U fancy him?do ya?
Thank you Coleman for having the courage to be different in a way that really makes a difference. America needs more voices like yours, especially Black America.
He not black American he's a phucking immigrant tether.
If this guy wrote a shopping list, I would read it
My dear baby brotha and Manna God...You betta say that!! Thank you so much. All my love and respect for you've lit a fire under me to seek more perspectives, especially those I'd used to shun.
It just reminds me of my statistics class: You can find a statistic for whatever you want to say. The hard part is finding someone who asks the right questions and wants to understand the whole picture.
Thank you for speaking out Coleman! God bless you always...
What a great quote; "Our habit of looking at gaps systematically obscures progress" - Run for President young man.
@fynes leigh put down the crack pipe homie
Your perspective is so fresh comparing to the cliches that permeate the narratives from both democratic and republican parties.
I agree with Hughes. This is a worthwhile conversations for all of us who want better outcomes from our interactions with white people. The patronizing from so called allies, must end.
That argument about statistics gaps and comparing populations is mind-blowing
Not so much if you’ve ever taken science courses with labs and statistics. Put it this way, way back, going to 2010 or so, I was watching videos on the common core validation committee. At that time the only Ph.D mathematician was fighting to have high school grads be able to do at least algebra 1. At that time the goal was college readiness but that was community college ready. Now, i don’t know if those standards were elevated or not, but it damn sure appears as though no one is talking or capable of speaking statistically and or scientifically about these matters. If people have a problem with western science, then they can throw away the lap tops and smart phones they are using right now, and stop using cars, planes, and televisions. I’m not trying to be a smart ass, but I have heard that argument, “it’s white man’s science”, as if there are other kinds.
@@tatsumakisempyukaku what is his source. Show us the data. Question everything.
Psychodelic Ronin I think it was Thomas Sowell who said to ask 3 basic questions. 1: compared to what 2: at what cost, 3: what’s the evidence.
@@tatsumakisempyukaku That being said. What is he talking about.
Psychodelic Ronin Generally, he’s talking about the difference between seeing or experiencing a situation through the lens of stats and comparative relations, vs looking at the same phenomenon devoid of mathematical ability; ie emotions. Emotions are instrumental but can be deadly devoid of critical thinking. But likewise, being solely analytical is also bad. Consider someone visiting when you’re sick but only because you know that they know is merely the rational and logical duty of one person to another. Meaning, they visit you out of obligation, but obligation divorced of love. He’s a philosophy major, cole Hughes. So, he’s more naturally going to defer to follow well put syllogisms, statistics, rigorous science. He’s not inclined to jump to conclusions in other words. While other people who don’t have his disposition, educated or not, will more likely defer to relying on emotions. Come to think of it, Plato, in the republic, spoke of a Homeric justice, which is to help friends-harm enemies, which Plato decisively destroys. But we are living that because justice itself has withdrawn from us. Imagine gravity leaving us. Now imagine a state of perfect justice, and gradually consider societies that have lesser and lesser infusions of justice, until you do get solely a survival of the fittest, where there’s no honor among thieves.
"If we don't know the triumphs of our recent history, we're doomed not to repeat them."
I can't believe Coleman is only 24. He's a wise and brave young man. I wish him the best.
Why would you say that. He is broad stroaking history. What is his source for what he is saying?
@fynes leigh Nephew Tom. How racist.
@@Neilazbiker I do not give a damn whether it is racist or not, why the hell might I? - I do not subscribe to the religion modernism and am perfectly certain that there is no such phenomenon as race and therefore the term racist falls with the word race which is meaningless.
If your best and only shot is infantile name-calling then no wonder you are a mouse (nothing and nobody)
You are a mouse are you not?
@Peter Codner Your name calling my friend. By the way, I was baiting fynes with his own racism weapon.
Thank you for encouraging the world! Let’s keep doing better!
Maybe, he is an heir to Dr. Thomas Sowell.
McWhorter and Sowell! Hopefully this is the future of black America.
There will never be another Sowell!
I doubt it. He is becoming a symbol/tool for talking points. Sowell was always his own man, who independently conducted his own studies, year after year, book after book.
@@bensmith8240 In what way has he become a tool? He seems to genuinely believe what he says, unlike Candace Owens. Genuinely curious why you say this.
Nah, he's better than that
This young man is a breath of fresh air.
Coleman, you're a man that's seeking equilibrium for all men (equilibrium in the sense of just and fairness.)
Honestly, I'm just impressed he can remember all these stats.
Yes! Proper statistical reading comprehension is so important! This video just shows how easy a person can manipulate honest data. Thank you Coleman!
Awesome, thank you! Wonderful to hear some good news that's also realistic & rational.
There can't be many people who had Professor written all over them before they probably even finished high school. Struck by his wisdom, even more than by his intellect - it's much rarer too.
Great to hear some good news for a change. Thank you Mr. Hughes.
Coleman you are a gift! I'm so relieved and happy that you exist.
The other day I was telling my American friends that I'm truly disappointed that a good percentage of them lack critical thinking skills and are bereft of any sort of conversation or debate skills.
Proof of this is their obsession with constantly touting people like Candace Owens, Shapiro and the other pitiful pseudo intellectuals on both sides as the 'political thinkers'
I was afraid that the 'dumbing down' of America is at hand but alas! All hope is not lost yet it seems.
Some of us are not really cut out for paid political provocateurs; their excessive show and use of emotion, lack of logical thinking skills, half-truths, lack of interpretation skills for data and a penchant for throwing in pieces of information for shock value to see what sticks amidst other awful debate tactics.
You will be very important some day soon and I'll be cheering you on, you are very much needed in the political space.
I just discovered this amazing man last week. I hope to see the view count rise substantially on this. We are so backwards in our collective focus. Thank you. ✌🏼
It isn't just that Coleman speaks of being mindful of the context in which information is presented, it is that he puts across this new insight while also being mindful of the way he was presenting it. Kudos
So much respect for how this man frames his arguments with nothing short of pure class.
This is eye opening and very different than what the ‘news’ portrays.
He’s a legend. Bringing data to an emotional debate. Coleman is my hero. Commenting for the algo.
Keep doing what your doing. This is the information and narrative that helps to uplift instead of tear down.
Some of our most brilliant black minds, folks like Thomas Sowell and Shelby Steele, are in the latter stages of life. So nice to see young black men like Coleman continuing the legacy of such great men. They give me hope for our country.
He's not a American black ,he's phucking Cuban he's cast playing as a American black speaking our struggle he' knows nothing about.
Some sources would be so great! Thank you Coleman
Data needs to be interpreted, but as he points out, it has to be acknowledged first.
Ya although this is great I need sources so that I can arm myself against hysterical idiots. If all these stats are mostly accurate this is fantastic
Where does he get this info? It's very easy to sit in a cozy surrounding and spew out data. Knowing that people who suffers from confirmation bias will use that as a tool/weapon in the dialogue of equality.
@@psychedelicronin882 Someone on RUclips helped me find an article in which Coleman links to all the resources he used for his data www.city-journal.org/reflections-on-race-riots-and-police
If you follow the links in that article you'll find sources like the Bureau for Justice Statistics, the Washington Post police shootings database, research from Harvard economist Roland Fryer and from Chicago Booth School of Business economist Sendhil Mullainathan, etc. The list is long.
The article is a beautiful example of carefully researched and thought out writing. He made it easy to trust his writing, but also to find the sources he used, double check them and decide if we agreed with his interpretations.
I am impressed with this presentation and his demonstration. This will be part of my conversation from this moment in my life.
However, I am quite surprised with the comments. This is not an absolute situation. You will still need both tactics to make progress.
If we believe that if Blacks did not protest and create unrest, that progress would naturally evolve, that would be overly, presumptuous.
I do not expect Blacks to necessarily start closing the wealth gap in my lifetime, but I do expect to see the wealth gap normalizing and trending in the same direction. Only then will I start believing that racial inequality is not systemic. People should not have to work twice as had to get the same outcome.
Thank you for bringing intelligence, & common sense to the discussion. You’re sincerity to share this information is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for this. Excellent conversations.
I appreciate your thoughtfulness and balance.
This is excellent. This needs to be shared widely!!!
Thank you very much!
Interesting and important information.
Incredible video Coleman! Keep it up man!
I’ve always thought that if our schools did not teach how bad America is for black Americans to black Americans, the majority would concentrate on how to get ahead, how to improve their communities and education. Not they don’t do that now, but currently there is an vast emphasis from many political opportunists sending the opposite message, in exchange for government intervention, money or votes. And of course the media participates, which in short blames the country, whites, corporations in an endless barrage. Solutions are not going to come only from outside the community...it’s a two way street, and I’ll leave it at that.
One counter-point: The numbers of incarceration are still crap though because they were GARAGANTUAN in the first place (ESPECIALLY IN THE 90s AND 2000s). 50% of 2,000,000 is still 1,000,000. It's an improvement, but the horrendous, hungry, devouring nature of the US prison-industrial complex is still the same.
I'd argue the optimism is still warranted. If 1,000,000 is a massive amount then 50% (1,000,000) drop constitutes a massive improvement. Of course there is still room for improvement but if the trend of improvement stays then there is good reason to think these issues can and will be resolved.
You are awesome! Keep preaching the message of TRUTH.
He is extremely smart. We need more like him telling it like it actually is. Glad he's a journalist. I wish everyone were as logical as he is. Congratulations!
Damn.
That last line just summed it all up.
Love this guy
Thank you for sharing good news.
Grateful to learn good news.
Two comments. First, at 23 he is a remarkable young man. Second, most successful people will tell you they spent most of their time focusing on what is going right or good and making it better and much less time at the other side of the spectrum.
Great video. I’ve always felt videos like this would gain more credibility if links were provided, either in the video description or as pop up cards, to the sources where he is getting the information. All in all though, great message.
Coleman. this is great content. thank you.
Yes, just plain yes!
Thank you. It is so frustrating watching the media and politicians pushing a false narrative.
Why have I never heard this before???? Mind absolutely shattered.
Great production!
These are great points!
Great explanation!!!
Dr claud anderson,black people need to progress in the politics realm
Brilliant!
I really needed the good new
One up side to all this is I have found many interesting people to follow - Coleman is one of them.
Thx Coleman
Holy shit... That is eye opening
God bless this young man.
Truth and logic are always good regardless of the source
Amen to that last quote!
Awesome.
I just found out about this young man and he has become one of my favorite media pundits.
At the time I am viewing this video there are only 6,901 views. Unfortunately too little. This is the sort of info that needs to go viral. This information is priceless. People have got to start thinking with their heads and not solely be led by the the sort of emotions that can skew good judgement.
It's now 36k views at this time. I guess more people are seeing another perspective to the issue. Whether they agree or not is a different story.
You are stupid... he is just placing terrible stats in a good light... but they are still aweful stats.
Citing sources for the numbers would make the argument stronger. But he seems very reasonable and well spoken.
This made my day.
Silence this heresy! We must uphold the Narrative!
The wind is behind the black mans back and he can't even feel it. I'm black 49 yrs and I can absolutely say things have gotten better. Sometimes I feel like they are trying to hand over this country to us.
@dublin Ireland I didn't know it was going on outside of America, interesting.
Interesting POV. This statistics bear out that since 2010 the disturbing trend of mass incarceration hit it's peak and has been steadily in the decline in general with the black population seeing 4he biggest declines proportionally. Since the trend also shows that in that time they had a disproportionately high incarceration rate it shows at least some racial progress in the justice system. However, like all social trends the population didn't start seeing this trend until it peaked. So considering the massive increase of use of social media from 2010 to now, the relatively new notion of mass incarceration increased rapidly the issue at that point in time. It's not that we are arguing against dwindling trend (since there is more progress yet to be made), but we should be aware of that our ire and social media activism is belatedly misplaced. In order to carry this ba over the goal line, we need to accurately understand where we are and why before claiming the system is utterly broken.
Preach my young brother
Anyway we can get the sources of the stats you pointed to on progress? Keep up the good work Coleman!
Please man when you talk about number, show where you got them from so that people could see for themselves
@Jay Turan I bet you yourself didn't look anywhere. It is the duty when you talk about numbers to show where you got them from. Even in school they teach that.
That would take to much time if every public speaker does that.
I agree, Karl. We will just have to look for the data.
I like his perspective he doesn't seem to be on either political side.
@Karl Alan, solid point. I appreciate what he has to say, but it would defiantly get more street cred with either links to references or if he verbally stated, at the very least, which institution he is getting the data from.
It's unfair to sit and comment about progress when it has come as I incremental change scratched and pulled by activists and orgs on the ground, to assume or to create the narrative that you can sit in a chair, and that America's self reinforcing system of slavery has been undone to work magnificently forward on it's own- is just no so. Progress is an indication that people in positions of power within colonialized institutions have been met with newly politically, economically, and culturally empowered groups of people. This is much more than political incentives, this is about strategic change, implemented, and refined, with these statistical being the the bar and metrics of those efforts, and grueling uphill battles. change comes very incrementally, with many unified fronts, it does not happen on it's own from Coleman's time on earth from kindergarten to to the time hes able to drink. These crumbs of progress are worth noting, though not as vital as knowing that america makes up only 5 percent of the world's population, 25 of the globes prison population, with blacks being 40 percent of that, while only 12 percent of Americans total population. The pie was never for us, and now still it is split unevenly - so when we say progress, we must refer to malcolm x analogy: if you stick a knife in my back and pull it out 5 inches, it's still a knife in my back.
Doubling down on what goes right is right, though what exact strategy helped anchor us forward?
Did I miss that, was that mentioned?
Kinda @ 9:45, though I'm sure there's a video elsewhere he might go into more detail.
I dont think he is saying to ignore the constant push for change by hand waving it. I think he's only advocating that what has changed should get brought up more into a proper contextualization. But dont quote me. I dont follow the dude.
One of the problems though that doesnt get translated well in your point is you're talking systemic change moving slowly, but the human race is at a weird Apex where things are changing faster than we can make sense of them. We've progressed in certain senses so quick that life a hundred years ago doesnt even work remotely like it does today. I'd say the majority of people in the world that rush to use statistics in their arguments and narrative making have never been taught to process statistics like you are when you specialise in statistics. Most stats are spoon fed by organizations to the masses that don't have time to untangle the vines.
I love the Malcolm X analogy. Just to crack subversive though, because stats arent analogies, we live in a world where it is trendy to have a knife in your back. We've damn near made it into a commodified product, and people are being treated or told to act as if they have a knife in their back, and so many white people are trying to join that bandwagon.
And you know how much Malcolm X loved trend-chasing, bandwagoners.
Coleman Hughes for President2040
Another often overlooked statistic is that births to unwed black mothers has fallen dramatically. In 1970 the birth rate for unmarried black women was 95.5 per 1,000. In 2018 it was 56.4. That's a decrease of 41%. To compare it to the same timeline that Hughes is referencing, it has declined from 70.5 per 1,000 since 2000 (a 20% decrease). And yet, that same statistic could be stated, "in 1970, 38% of black births were out of wedlock. In 2018 that percentage grew to 70%."
It's not very well known that it's actually Hispanic mothers who have the highest out-of-wedlock birth rate (59.5 per 1,000 compared to 56.4 per 1,000 for black mothers). But again, when using percentage figures, 52% of Hispanic children are born out-of-wedlock compared to 70% of black children.
The unmarried black birth rate has been declining for 50 years. You wouldn't know it based on how some pundits represent the data. OOW births are a declining marriage rate, and declining intra-marriage birth rate, problem in the black community (society as a whole really), not due to a rampant uptick in single mother births.
I love this human.
Brilliant
I said this exact thing to my friend. Where is the good news about Black Americans?
If Coleman ever wants to become a professor for real, he certainly has the dress code down pat.
I love this
Lmaooooooooo watching this again in June of 2020
Not enough to just watch anymore. We need to share the knowledge.
This young man is brilliant. I wish we could mashup the energy of BLM with the logic and intellect of Coleman
this is the first piece where I've been legitimately impressed by Coleman Hughes
I work in scolttdburg Indiana. Jefferson I’ll Indiana. Shepardvill Kentucky and northern Carolina. You need to go through these areas and see if story still applies.
I’ll like it if there is a journal or document to back up this information. Just for reference purposes
Thank you coleman for bringing positivity in an otherwise very negative world. I will stand with black people against any and all racism that still exists, every day of the week! I will not however, be led to belive that racism is a bigger problem than it actually is. Thank you!
then you actually are full of shit
Seen enough, saluting those who persist, it turns that the overwhelmingly majorities relies on cultures of chaos rather than civility.
