Bernie is a sell-out - a sheeple-herder that never intended to win. He was a gatekeeper for Hillary because she is AIPAC-beloved and he is an Israel-firster. He threw his supporters under the bus as they told him in real time that the nomination was being stolen. The con was set up even before the race started as alluded to in a Podesta email. Bernie pushes Russiagate and admits he’s a Zionist. He supported the same candidate as Dick Cheney endorsed. Vote Third Party (REAL third parties, not the Bernie Sanders' kind).
@@ft4903 Sure. Check out how dishonest Bernie Sanders is: WASHINGTON, Jan. 24 - Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) issued the following statement Thursday on the political situation in Venezuela: "The Maduro government in Venezuela has been waging a violent crackdown on Venezuelan civil society, violated the constitution by dissolving the National Assembly and was re-elected last year in an election that many observers said was fraudulent. Further, the economy is a disaster and millions are migrating.” Want more? Vote Third Party.
It's rare to see someone highlight anti-Jewish sentiment around the world, and then immediately call out the Israeli Occupation. He's certainly an honest intellectual.
They are both real and need to be called out and dismantled, obviously you fight them in very different ways. It really is shame that criticizing the Israeli government gets conflated with not having love Jewish people and direct antisemitism. You see it from both honestly confused good faith actors and bad faith actors gaslighting too.
I am a 64 year old white man. I love Cornel West. He is the kind of man people should listen to. Especially young people. Too many fakes in the world. One dose of him should cure you of being deceived by them.
Dr. West loves all people and speaks for all the down trotted. That is why I respect him to the core. He cares about people of all races, genders, and creeds. When I look and listen to the great Doctor I don't see a color I see humanity.
PokerFace46 The guy has actually went across America to help poor people. He is not just in for the money. Also I'd rather give to someone who cares for the less fortunate then the evil billionaires running America and the rest of the world.
PokerFace46 Why is it that West's adversaries--liberal and conservative alike--reply with attacks on HIM rather than his arguments? Don't you guys know that such personal insults offered as counterarguments are nothing but cheap Ad Hominem fallacies (ie. fallacies of relevance), and even if you could PROVE your accusations against HIM, it wouldn't prove wrong even one word of what he SAYS.
james hague and he and Tavis sells their book to the poor and oppressed they are trying to raise up. They're just mad that they were in the back row at the POTUS inauguration
kiddfonkadelic West went on all of Obama's tours when he was running for President. Once Obama won the presidency he turned his back on West and didn't invite to the inauguration.
"I love brother Bernie. He tells the truth about wall street. He really does... I am not a Hillary Clinton fan at all, so if he uses his power and hands it over to her I will be deeply, deeply upset." said Dr. West. I concur!

1crazysistah Thanks. That is what I was interested in and I stopped watching before then because as usually happens with West I found him mundane and predictable. It isn't that I disagree in a major way with anything he says it just seems he is mostly rhetoric rather than serious analysis the way people like Chomsky are.
Thank you Laura Flanders and Cornel West. Ms. Flanders, thank you for creating the highest level of intellectual discussion using the truth. Thank you Cornel West for your consistent adherence to the truth and fight for justice.
The man is clearly intelligent and honest about the way things are, not how we want them to be. I respect those character traits and him for his works.
This man drops so much truth it's kind of mind-blowing. It's hard to keep up sometimes, and then you realize he's saying things you think but you never hear spoken in the news.
So important. Dr. West is an exemplary human being .He brings tears to my eyes with so much honest truth. Keep up your great work Dr. there aren't many like you in the world.😊✌
i love this old black guy, he has taught much more about being liberal he taught me words like plutocracy & egalitarianism, for sure he is my younger brother, education found its function in brother West love to brother west - old man mike
I mean that Bernie Sanders should be more outspoken about Israels behavior. Maybe he simply isn't knowledgeable about the history there. Do the people of the occupied territories have a right to self defense? This issue is extremely difficult, each side has blood on their hands, but it shouldn't be ignored because it isn't a sexy election issue, it needs to be addressed.
@11STARFIRE what's the matter soyboy? You sad you can't silence your opposition into silence? fucking pussy. Go ahead and report this comment anyway for damaging your snowflake feelings.
Hey just subscribed. I've watched a few of your shows now and really like the content. I would like to drop a request/suggestion: I would like to see subtitles =). The content is very deep and reading what I'm hearing would help me better remember and internalize what you and your guests share with us. Keep up the great work =)
I'm positive me and Mr. Cornel don't agree on a lot of things but I really like this dude. He's very thoughtful and intelligent. He clearly cares a lot and that's something I find to be a rarity these days.
The Creature from the Seventh Chamber : Okay, but, what is it you don't agree with him on?? Be specific, please. This cat, Dr. West is a huge intellectual, yet speaks in down to earth lingo style. You really don't have a problem keeping up with issues being discussed; unlike Dr. Eric Tyson ( by the way ' didn't know Dr. West was his mentor). Dr. Dyson speaks in lofty images, sometimes too shrouded in historical analyses before landing on the subject matter; in other words, displaying his intellectual chops for all to know when listening to him. He does this no matter where he's appearing, News Networks, talk shows what ever. It's the only thing I wish he would leave off of. We can read this aspect of his greatness when there is more time to digest the point he's making. Dr. West does the same thing but we are better able to follow the point being made. Tim Wise speaks with the same tone, shall we say, though he could go off on a lofty tangent as well if he wanted to. Not putting him in the same class as these two giants, but, I'm not so sure. These cats have been at it a long, long time. Kudos, and thanks to all three of them.
Dr. West is a brilliant, and just by hearing him, I feel more intelligent, compassionate & understanding of the world. He opened my eyes to Obama´s crimes. Thank you for having him on the show.
Laura, I have just subscribed to GRITtv. I'm a white Liberal and proud of it. Your interview of Dr, Cornel West was Superb !!!, I learned more & appreciate more about the man, watching your interview then ever before. Thank You for your Good Work.
West is a Brilliant genius, as is M.Dyson, shining a light on their differing opinions sounds a bit like shit stirring. Black interlectuals can have different opinions and still inspire and evoke thought. Isn't that the actual point of being a bringer of "truth"?
his thoughts vis-a-vis uplifting & listening deeply to young voices is so great. a genuinely unique thinker & human being. thank you for showing me new ways of being, dr. west
It's great to see someone relatively mainstream acknowledge that being opposed to Israeli occupation of Palestine is not the same as being anti-Jewish. Blatantly obvious but surprisingly fresh.
Genius are hard to find...people with integrity are sometimes even harder as well to find. When a person, like Dr. Cornel, is a Genius and has integrity THIS DAYS, it's just a treasure we should appreciate: THIS DAYS.
I love Cornel West but I've only recently become familiar with Laura Flanders and I'm so appreciative of her work. Very few journalists do this type of thing!
deadyourinstinct If the good Dr clapped them cheeks, I wouldn’t be surprised 😂😂 his voice and cadence is very poetic and is so unique. He’s a brilliant man and a National treasure.
It's gotten you into a certain amount of trouble in the black community with your former men tee Michael Eric Dyson. I "Ooooh we've got to pray for that negro" I lost it!
He nailed Dyson, who used to be a truth-teller but SOLD OUT to the neo-liberal establishment. It was more than Dyson's support for Obama, he shilled for Hillary too.
This Cornel West guy is pretty fucking awesome. I'm white, male, 31, middle class, and this guy speaks to humanity, telling the truth, and fighting for oppressed peoples the world over. I think of him as a real brother and wish more humans were like him.
Small thing, but I'm so glad he actually said "Sister Manning." It really parches my potato when people address her as a "he." I feel like they are just trying to passively discredit her identity.
I've always liked Cornel. Glad he seems to favor Sanders. Funny though, when asked about Sanders, Cornel brings up Israel. Far as I've gathered Sanders IS for a 2 State solution. But why does it always come back to Israel? Even from Cornel? C'mon man.
ImproveYourMagic Because Bernie Sanders unrepentant defended Israel's recent massacring of Palestinians women and children. Not only that but he also voted to send them more weapons while they was carrying out said massacre.
just to let you youngsters know that b.b. could play one mean jazz guitar. only if the audience would let him though which was hard to do because they came to hear the king of the blues. RIP BB AND BOBBY BLUE BLAND. this world is not the same with the brothers no longer with us.
I came to Mexico in 1962 at age 20. Acapulco was my favorite, and I spent 0ver 60 years visiting and living in Mexico. I moved in 2021 to Queretaro at age 79, and I love this safe, friendly and beautiful city. It is a cool temperature, and earthquakes were my deal breakers for beautiful Acapulco. It is less expensive here, and all utilities are included in my beautifully furnished apartment. rent, and also a maid and security. San Miguel is next door. I have been speaking Spanish as a second language since age 14. USA became too deadly and expensive. Enjoy everyone.
"Righteous indignation" -- CORRECT... In light of the TPP, there is no doubt that the President is morally corrupt. Bernie is weak on foreign policy, but the ruling class will clean his clock for being a "democratic socialist." Internationalism vs. nationalism, spot on Dr. West.
@ 8:24 onwards, Dr. West mentioned Raheem DeVaughn and my mind went to his classic song "Living like a bulletproof ". This song didn't get any coverage.
The man is a living treasure. I hope Bernie or someone very much like him gets elevated and West finally gets the leadership position he truly deserves and can live with, because like Bernie, he can not compromise his ideals.
This is a great talk but it is mislabeled by the poster. Bernie Sanders' name is barely mentioned - I was hoping for a wider ranging discussion even than the one I got. Otherwise, thank you. It was excellent viewing.
Cornel West is a genuine American treasure. He transcends all boundaries of race and politics and ego, and takes ALL of us to a higher level. The speaks the truth when we need to hear the message, now more than ever.
How the hell was I not already following this guy? Blown away, He's a GENIUS!!

I love him, it is such a pleasure to just hear him speak!
West is a Brilliant genius, as is M.Dyson, shining a light on their differing opinions sounds a bit like shit stirring. Black interlectuals can have different opinions and still inspire and evoke thought. Isn't that the actual point of being a bringer of "truth"?
Thanks for visiting with this beautiful soul.
If only we had more Cornel West's...
My thoughts align with Cornel West.
Shes blushing, Mr. Cornel stimulating that mind. Awesome interview, great interviewer as well.
She has a sun burn.

Larry Elder and Dr. West...You kidding me???? Brother West has more knowledge and understanding in his pinky fingers than Elder has in his whole body!
Very poignant interview, and I got teary at the end when they talk about B.B. King and what it means to be a Blues man.
Sanders 2016!!
Cornel is a great black Icon. May he live long to speak truth to power !
the point he made at 7:09 is such an amazing thought and very real and true. Brilliant.

This Cornel West guy is pretty fucking awesome. I'm white, male, 31, middle class, and this guy speaks to humanity, telling the truth, and fighting for oppressed peoples the world over. I think of him as a real brother and wish more humans were like him.
Small thing, but I'm so glad he actually said "Sister Manning." It really parches my potato when people address her as a "he." I feel like they are just trying to passively discredit her identity.
I've always liked Cornel. Glad he seems to favor Sanders. Funny though, when asked about Sanders, Cornel brings up Israel. Far as I've gathered Sanders IS for a 2 State solution. But why does it always come back to Israel? Even from Cornel? C'mon man.
ImproveYourMagic Because Zionists own the White house and the entire U.S govt.
ImproveYourMagic Because it's a deeply important issue.
ImproveYourMagic Why not Israel!?
ImproveYourMagic Because Bernie Sanders unrepentant defended Israel's recent massacring of Palestinians women and children. Not only that but he also voted to send them more weapons while they was carrying out said massacre.
Jay ElecHanukkah Exactly! Ditto! Thank you.
Seven years later... doesn't play as well. Stay free 🙏❤🇺🇸
UNCONDITIONAL LOVE ❤️ that’s the Key to Happiness
just to let you youngsters know that b.b. could play one mean jazz guitar. only if the audience would let him though which was hard to do because they came to hear the king of the blues. RIP BB AND BOBBY BLUE BLAND. this world is not the same with the brothers no longer with us.
I came to Mexico in 1962 at age 20. Acapulco was my favorite, and I spent 0ver 60 years visiting and living in Mexico. I moved in 2021 to Queretaro at age 79, and I love this safe, friendly and beautiful city. It is a cool temperature, and earthquakes were my deal breakers for beautiful Acapulco. It is less expensive here, and all utilities are included in my beautifully furnished apartment. rent, and also a maid and security. San Miguel is next door. I have been speaking Spanish as a second language since age 14.
USA became too deadly and expensive. Enjoy everyone.
"Righteous indignation" -- CORRECT...
In light of the TPP, there is no doubt
that the President is morally corrupt.
Bernie is weak on foreign policy, but the ruling class
will clean his clock for being a "democratic socialist."
Internationalism vs. nationalism, spot on Dr. West.
Dr. West is a great American and a great thinker.
Beautiful mind and soul.
Bernie Sanders and Cornel West - This would be THE SPLIT PRESIDENTIAL ticket of all-time. Hehehe..
Even if you're a conservative, this guy is clearly brilliant.
OMG what's up with the Damn Fusia Red Lipstick Cornell West is appearing/wearing? Daaam
Yeah, that lipstick is crazy. He shoulda neva gone on camera like that.
@ 8:24 onwards, Dr. West mentioned Raheem DeVaughn and my mind went to his classic song "Living like a bulletproof ". This song didn't get any coverage.
After reading Cornel's Democracy Matters I made a life long friend.
"blues man in a jazz world"- dr. west
I love him speak, his quest to human equality and justice is absolutely awesome
The man is a living treasure. I hope Bernie or someone very much like him gets elevated and West finally gets the leadership position he truly deserves and can live with, because like Bernie, he can not compromise his ideals.

Great interview!
Amazing Mind Heart
Great interview, thanks.
This is a great talk but it is mislabeled by the poster. Bernie Sanders' name is barely mentioned - I was hoping for a wider ranging discussion even than the one I got. Otherwise, thank you. It was excellent viewing.
Cornel West is a genuine American treasure. He transcends all boundaries of race and politics and ego, and takes ALL of us to a higher level. The speaks the truth when we need to hear the message, now more than ever.
Cornell West is a amazing human being.
Brilliant Analysis
