In Class with Carr, Ep. 217: “People vs Privilege: A Recipe for National Suicide?”
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2025
- This happens every so often, and increasingly as the US empire expanded. It comes as a commingling of domestic and foreign policy: Vietnam, The War In Iraq, and now the Israel-Palestinian slaughter.
What happens when the interests of the people clash with the interests of the privileged? Biden will be at Morehouse in two weeks. Between now and then, so much is poised to happen.
They’ve literally unleashed police on college students, faculty, observers, and anyone whom the police want to harm. There is no legal justification; this is pure repression. And mass commercial “news” outlets are pushing pure propaganda, no doubt at the behest of owners.
Meanwhile, student journalists like at Columbia and UPenn and independent outlets are pushing back. The International Court of Justice could issue arrest warrants for Netanyahu any time now. Israel has seen Columbia and Turkey move to break diplomatic and trade ties. And in Haiti, the attempt to install another US-France-Canada backed interim prime minister has been met with widespread derision.
The “elites” (the moneyed and privileged) have lost the power to control the narrative and have dropped all pretenses that they are doing anything other than attempting to suppress by any means necessary.
And the end of the school year isn't going to help. Brown and Northwestern had the good sense to put the issue of divestment to a vote, thereby reaching a truce with the students.
But we’re headed toward the summer, the presidential contest, and the Dem convention in Chicago. Unlike 1968, where King and RFK assassinations fed a wave of discontent that led to Nixon’s election and the spiral that we have yet to emerge from, there is a real fascist waiting to assume control of the presidency and push us past the brink.
We might be living in the events of the moment that will break the experiment, a moment that portends “national suicide.”

Dr.Carr......Best Story Teller Alive!!!!
_I got hit so much, I lost my tongue_ - This human species is _over_ if we fail to see each other.
Tears just crying right now, the burden of tyranny and oppression is overwhelming. It just is. We've lost so much - all of the indigenous from Africa to Asia to the Americas. God have mercy. WWhat I know is -- if we want peace and freedom and plenty, we're going to have to keep fighting for it. We just MUST. Fighting through tears.
It made me so angry
Yes I’m fighting through tears too. Remember nothing is lost if we continue to teach, support and don’t give up! Praying for you!
Well said, comrade. Remember that the tears affirm your humanity.
We cry because somewhere inside we remember our ways of being from before the settler-colonial virus besieged us.
Stay Strong ✊🏾🇨🇬🇭🇹🇵🇸✊🏾
If there is a GOD, when will HE correct the wrongs that HE allows to happen. Or have WE been praying to a GOD that is not for us ?
God may not have mercy!
Professor Hunter and Dr. Carr are very special human beings. Truth seekers and then givers of it, servant warriors, and lovers of humanity. The Most High must have definitely heard my prayers, and I am constantly thanking Him for you two. I so appreciate your commitment to us all. Love you both.
Thank you!
Dr Carr was on Fire, Bravo!!!
I absolutely love this! I received so much misinformation growing up. I feel like at age 70 I am just learning who I am.
I feel the same!
From the first episode to this one I realized I don't know what I thought I knew....Dr Carr is a true humble scholar & Prof Hunter isn't to be trifled with
Ohhh, the transparency is so beautiful. You are farther than so many. Keep going. You''re searching. That makes you the smartest one in many rooms.
Thank you!
A good saying I love “Nobody is coming. God sent you.”
Listen...
Shalom, WAKE THAT MIND UP! Thank you for sharing this conversation. Dr. Carr, Professor Hunter, always spot on.
I am going to school every Saturday when I watch. Thank you Professor Hunter and Dr. Carr. Your making me stronger, brighter and wiser

Thank you! Thank you "ANCESTORS"!! For still embracing your descendants who thrist to drink from a clean glass of righteous water for our humanity! I ask you the "GREAT SOULS" to protect Professor Hunter and Dr. Carr for pouring this powerful knowledge into our beings.
You're so true about Mississippi, it will never change
Thank you for a very interesting and memorable ICWC Ep. #217, Prof. Hunter and Dr. Carr!!
I love your analogy of the changing seasons (and how they very well might be a harbinger of our politics and the possible change that might lie therein.
Meanwhile, we indeed give shoutouts to those who stand unwaveringly strong in the face of adversity. It speaks volumes to a Jerry Butler song, "Only The Strong Survive."
Yes, indeed, our lives are sometimes required when we stand up for our rights (yet we never give up the fight)!!
What would we do without Dr. Carr's rendition of those important lyrics of yesteryear's songs to jog our collective memories that we need to care about 'What's Going On' (Marvin Gaye)?
I hope you do understand when we say we APPRECIATE you both for what you do and how important what you say to us is to our people!!
In so many ways, you're our 'moral compass' in these social/governance structures, y'all!!
Blessings to you both!!🙏🏾🖤💯
I
I take. Pride in your fierce opposition, for the long run. The hhell with accomodaton....flowers Doc n Prof
Power to the People !!!
I never even HEARD of the American Indian Movement (AIM) until like 4yrs ago and I'm 41. And the fact so many of them are still alive. And how much today is reminiscent of the same time I never learned about

I'm on a professional sports fast as well. My friends are shocked when I don't know what's going on in the sports world. 😐
I have been going down a rabbit hole on the Adinkra symbols for the past few nights and I’m fascinated with them! I can’t wait to see what Karen does with this.

Israel is a colonial settler project.

Take❤️children and be encouraged
Well get us right. Professor Carr
8:48 I didn't know what Al said but I clip I saw it was enuff.....when u start a sentence with 'u right Joe" I KNEW it was down hill from there
I better understand the pushback against the term "Civil Rights Movement" because the term "Summer Racial Reckoning" isn't something I picked either
59:23 listening to Dr Carr talking reminds me of a guy I give a commentary on RUclips called Douglas Murray.
I found him as Dr Carr says "exquisite" because in this particular commentary he pontificated about the people coming to England from Africa & Asia (trying NOT to say middle east because we know it's a European construct) and saying how DARE they come to HIS country with their "ways of knowing" & "movement & memory".
They should kiss the European ground they walk on & be greatful that they was allowed to come so they must assimilate in order to prove their worthiness.
It was so wonderful (tongue placed firmly in cheek) to hear because it TOTALLY ignored centuries of colonial settler violence at the hands of the crown.
We are seeing the destruction of the concept of "American exceptionalism" & "Western values" because we know that it's a bunch of BS.
THANK YOU PROF HUNTER FOR HITTING RECORD & THANK YOU DR CARR FOR EDUCATING THIS BLACK MAN!!!!
Al Sharpton that was very sad, he said that.
🦋❤️🎶EXCELSIOR!🎶❤️🦋
@2:44ff Although my mother donated to a school for " American Indian orphans run by the Catholic church from the 1960's until her passing in 2016, the abuse scandals only came out in the 2000's if memory serves.
Dr. Carr singing 😂🤣
🎶 O, I wish I was in the land of cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Look away! Look away! Look away!
Thhe validictorian has a major in Genocide Prevention !!!
Dr. Carr is Coltrane-esque.
Thank you for the discussion, also reminded of this song
The Isley Brothers - Harvest for the World (Official Audio)
As a child during our civil rights moments I lived in the Southern Hamlet, Covington GA. One Sunday afternoon me &my playmates heard the powerful voices of the people marching and singing.". We Shall Overcome we rushed to the front yard and saw that mass of black humanity coming over a hill. As they came by our dwelling space we disobyed our parents and joined the train. We marched to the up town "Jim Crow park in the square with the Confederate Statue that is still on display and the angry white beasts screaming and hurling their vulgar venom at us circa(1966/67). I remember its my living blood memory!!
My oldest daughter was born in Covington. In 1982 at Newton County Hospital . She's out of the Pitts, Gilstrap Family!.I remember many times visiting the square and the churches in the area on my visits!,
An "Ancestor" now who taught me to dance & instilled the love of music into my being lived in Covington GA . At the neighborhood laundry mat she would come and play Sweet Sweeter than honey" AREATHA 'S classic "Chain of Fools" on the jukebox and invite me& the younger children to dance with her in sheer joy &estacy. Her name is Vicky Gilstrap she was taken from this realm the summer of (1969) with some more teenagers they were hit by a train locomotive with no survivors. Another preteen whose name is "Susie" I didn't know her last name. I'm now 64 years evolved around the SUN. I can still recall the sadness and pain my mother felt as she read the notice of their transitioning that a sister friend had sent her via the postal service when we had moved from Covington GA back to a Hamlet in Waycross GA to the projects. I can tell you truths about dwelling in that space as a pre teen& teenager. Everytime I hear AREATHA 'S powerful instrument over the sound system in public spaces bending ¬es& wailing those notes 'Chain of Fools" I think of Vicky thank you Vicky for so generously sharing your love of AREATHA with me and my playmates and child I still love to dance with somebody who also love the joy of dancing. " May your Peace be Eternal"
I used this video for my class years ago; deep dive discussion that had powerful impact on students as atmosphere shifted to trauma. Blood memory as we talked about this with experience of African Americans . What is my language of origin?
The last Indian boarding school closed in the 90's.
memory check with Dr. Carr. Wouldn't miss it.
I see that Red, Black, and Green flag - Solid :-)
Good session
❤️
❤
Didn't Sharpton RECENTLY get an AWARD from the ADL?👍
The argument that democrats and Republicans are the same is more compelling everyday
…in that it has never been more false than it is today. Albeit on “foreign policy” they both seek to advance the interests of the American Empire at all costs.
As Krs-1 said "you call,WE answer"
Good Ole Mississippi passed Confederate history month for April what do you expect and Brothas quit these football teams couldn’t give me a scholarship for these schools
Was that remark by Rev Al made on his MSNBC show or his Urban View show?
He said it on Morning Joe.
I missed the live AGAIN!!!!
"Indigenous people are 5% of the planets population but steward 85% of the planets bio diversity" Nizhoni Begay, Dine'/Quechua
@Professor Hunter- A Sister: Renee Williams, created a map- with "Cop Cities" (where Israel's IDL will train future cops) -THROUGHOUT AMERICA! It includes info to distinguish those that are developed for those in various stages - SOME OF WHICH CAN BE STOPPED BY THE PEOPLE!
@TiaZ the big question is since we always tell people we are the best in everything. Why do we need IDL to train our perfect police departments???? Hmmmm🤷🏾♂️
🔥💗
My spiritual teacher said this to me as did my great Uncle who had a guru in the 1920s, bible verse… do not through pearls before swine. Certain information… you have to do the work to get to know the true teachings. And if you take the truth and expose it to swine, the karma is yours.
America needs to repent. I hear how you all feel about Ms but some of chose to protest by voting.
🦋❤️🎶”What’s your tool(s) of change?🎶❤️🦋
They did this to Natives as recently as 1978.
