charlita25 You’re a good example of how the US education system has failed its young people. I mean judging by your profile picture if that is you in the picture there is no reason why that should be the case (learning a new word every time Micheal Eric Dyson speaks) for someone your age.
People in the comments upset that he gives Jay his flowers while he alive but then say black folks don’t until someone die Y’all mad corny. The system ain’t built for us. What you do is learn the system and beat the system. It’s all a game and if you know you know 🤷🏽♀️ Get your credit up/ leverage it to get funding from them/ buy some assets to pay off the funding/get the profits It’s that simple.
I was just setting up to type basically 90% of what you said until I read your comment. Thank you sis, sometimes the fake woke bravery that happens behind these sell screens will never lead to any action or motivation to maneuver our people in a more positive direction or give any credit. Everything I've read about Harriet Tubman would make me think that she wouldn't of just shot the weak but also she would have shot anyone who would have turned around and started trying to kill people who were more light-skinned then they were too. Because she would have known that it was about figuring out a way to express their hatred forever . They're never satisfied
Jay damn near 50, it ain't hard to google and see what he has done. Let Kaep young ahh blind yall if you wanna. Keep living. Only a matter of for Kaep to slip up and offend you, he young. I guess black folks will turn on and tear him down too. Smh🤦🏿♂️
Michael Eric Dyson's perspective on The Kaepernick/NFL dilemma is the most well-rounded I've heard. He has a balanced view of all sides of the situation. (Kaepernick, NFL, Jay-Z and Stephen A.)
His perspective fell apart to me like the typical boomer when you extend his ideas to their logical conclusion. Perhaps I'm used to debating professors but he admitted his flawed thinking like how he's from the black respectability generation where token negros made strides at the expense of their dignity and fellow black people. Think the talented 10th and even some of our most prolific geniuses ended up broke and poor barely eke out an existence. The whole issue is the waiver and you can't throw that out. His lawyer said it would be malpractice to let his client sign that. I don't get it. Maybe it's football but if this was a police department, I wonder if Eric Dyson would make the same comments when we know the criminal justice system doesn't treat black men fairly. There are several black men on probation or doing jail time for crimes they didn't commit because their public defender told them to plead out and they didn't have a good lawyer to advise them otherwise. Smh. I expected better.
@@dariusd2003 I agree with u on this. M.Eric Dyson's perspective was just as weak as when he tried to school Bill Maher on the N-word.. And who wants to hear flattery of another all the time when your seeking something more intellectual.
@@dariusd2003 I have to disagree on the fact that I haven't heard about the contract from colin Kaepernic himself...for the past 3 years we haven't heard colin Kaepernic speak himself and until then I'm no longer going off of what his lawyer said his girlfriend says neither his representative....never in the history of this earth as we know it has their ever been a silent activist from jesus till now...

Dyson compared Jay Z and the NFL to MLK Jr and UNITED STATES civil rights movement. I understand it, but it doesn't compare based on impact to black people
@@VandalVanWilder why are you asking me this question? my comment has nothing to do with racism! the conversation should focus on the original comment not your agenda
@@jakefever you're avoiding the question because you know the answer. But go ahead and hide in your shell fam, because you can't talk about civil rights without racism
But why we always have to conflate our struggle with the LGBTQ struggle? And we can’t be critical of Israel or Jews? We get “Cancelled” if we oppose them. But wait? I thought we had freedom of speech under the 1st Amendment? Something ain’t right about that and our so called intellectuals are co opting this censorship movement!!
And when you are peddling a book about your friend. Dyson loves to run his mouth and dazzle listeners with SAT words and say a lot of nothing. Jay Z has NO POWER in regards to the NFL. He is an entertainment pawn.
I wish y’all would listen to the entire interview and get the whole message instead of simply seeing the name Jayz (who some people dislike anyway and want to bash regardless of the context) and not miss the substance of what he’s discussing. 💎
Brother welcome to the black people’s mind. All what he said was brushed aside because they only hear he writes about Jay-Z. If we black people don’t grow out of this mindset our children to come will always be the underdogs.
Eazy November substance?? Where was it brotha? A lot of jay z dick eating and rhyme spitting.. then his advice for Kaep is to go through with the workout anyway. Even tho they wanted Kaep to sign away his rights. What type of shot is that? That’s not substance. That’s kow towing. That’s advice from a man who clearly has an agenda. What’s the point of bringing up Jackie Robinson and Ali and Jack Johnson? If Ali taught us anything. It’s that black people should stand and fight for their principles.
I used to support and had some degree of respect for Michael Eric Dyson, but now that it's become obvious that he's joined the wicked industry clique to help push this demonic narrative about Jay Z being the voice of Black culture (Al Sharpton's and Jessie Jackson's replacement moving forward...and notice how Al and Jessie have been suddenly deprogrammed and silenced) and continues to keep Jay Z's nuts in his mouth, I have officially cancelled him and put him on mute. I'm so sick of this group think doctrine being forced down society's throats. Jay Z is a mess just like his face and hair and he's not my leader and he NEVER will be.
He said the key. You don’t have to be under the same banner to be on the same side. As long as you represent the same principles. But, this is the generation of do-whatever. We didn’t get strong foundation, and things are comfortable enough that we didn’t form strong, solidified principles to stand on. Social media is a reflection of life - people go with whichever way the wind blows. Same as opinions on social media. Us young people got a lot of growing to do, but, overall we mean well and want things to be better
The stuff you said about our generation makes no sense. The issue is someone like Jay Z doesn’t have the same principles and then a lying ass academic that has a book to sell provides cover for him. Then people fall for the bullshit cause they say a couple of blackity black things. People gotta learn what pro-black even means. It doesn’t mean cheering for rich niggas just cuz they got richer.
Kharismatik _ If they’re undermining black progression in public they should be dealt with in public. Pro-black doesn’t mean not fighting the enemy. Some black people will be the enemy. Been this way since slavery.
Da Honcho you didn’t listen to the interview.. folks he friends with he had disagreed with.... but hey 🤷🏾♂️. You would have to listen to know that. Smh.
@@djbrowm1562 Africa...named after a white man. America...named after a white man. The "culture" you speak of isn't even ours lol. The clothes, the cars, the labels...we don't own ANY of it. You're an Israelite homie. Reading is fundamental. Imma leave this here. You can decide for yourself... (REV 1:13-15).."And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters." What race of people have hair like wool? BLACK PEOPLE. And his feet like unto fine brass as if they BURNED IN A FURNACE. Christ is a black man. (DAN 10:5-6).."Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz: His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude." Just in case one scripture of Christ being a black man wasn't enough. (DAN 7:9).."I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire." The Ancient of days = he's older than earth aka God. He had hair like wool as well. (REV 21:12).."And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:" (REV 7:4-8).."And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand." What tribe are you from??? 144,000 Israelites will inherit the kingdom. Everyone else (White, Asian, East Indian, Arab, etc.) will be slaves...(IS 14:1-2).."For the Lord will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob. And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the Lord for servants and handmaids: and they shall take them captives, whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors." Did you know that slavery was a curse put on the Israelites aka "Blacks, Hispanics, and native Indians? And there's no amount of marching, protesting, voting OR ANYTHING that anyone (MLK, Malcolm X, Marcus Garvey, Obama...all false prophets) can do about it. ONLY GOD can change things. And we must KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS for him to do so. (HOS 5:14-15).."For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue him. I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early." He's not playing. He will not save us until we get right!!! In (DEUT 28:1,15,20,28,30,32-35,37,43,44-50,61,64,68) it talks about the blessings and curses that would be put on us. If you feel this chapter in your SOUL...THIS BIBLE IS YOUR HISTORY BOOK AND IS FOR YOU AND NO ONE ELSE! (ROM 8:16).."The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:..." IF YOU GET CHILLS WHEN YOU READ (DEUT 28)...YOU ARE AN ISRAELITE. THE CHOSEN ONES. Shalom.
The mythology of the necessity for uniformity and unity among black people undercuts the vibrant diversity and rambunctious complexity of our existence.
The problem with Cynthia Errivo playing Harriet Tubman was the fact the she insulted African-Americans many times on the social media and then turns around and plays one of the most Iconic African-Americans ever. Stop trying to make this about AA not liking her because shes is not from here.
I don't know of one person who has not grown up ignorant to who they are and what they are saying. The question is have they matured and now know better. I don't like hollier than thou folk who want to have the right to be annoyed at a stranger and they bleed like everyone else. I've said some ignorant shit about us back in the day too so I better hope I don't become famous.
cpatterson22 she was not one of those most iconic AA because she was not the only one that help slaves with the white man help that was during that time there’s a black man in Tennessee that saved thousands compared to the few hundreds she saved
"The historic black obligation has been, no matter what white supremecy presents as a limitation or an option, you transform it, transfigure it through the genius of your black expression" Michael Eric Dyson Wow!
I’ve learned from Dr. Michael Eric Dyson and he has shifted my career and my thinking and I love him dearly. However, please be critical of Jay z as you were of the 44th President. Jay Z did sell out Kap. If he has helped Colin get a try out it was bc he was he was already planning his stake in NFL all while trying to help so-called help Colin. Jay z is in my top 5 but he was being strategic in his motive at the expense of Kap the whole time. Jay z ain’t crazy. I love Jayz, I love Kap, I love Dr Dyson. But, let’s critic honestly and in love 💙
How did he sell out Kap if he was a big factor in him getting a chance in the first place ? Like come on, yall gotta stop creating an agenda and take things for what it is. Jay Z actually stepped up to the plate and tried to help, that doesnt sound like a sell out to me. Your statement is literally the problem Dr. Dyson was talking about . Always calling another black a sell out when trying to make moves when helping others in the community. Im curious if you were in Jay position within the situation, what would you do? Like come on, Thats the problem. Black people quick to call a successful black person a sell out but are giving no solutions to make change.
@@Remnant.Garments7 So Jay helped Kap out by organizing a sham workout? The evidence suggests that the purpose of the sham workout was to get his signature on a document which would prevent him from suing them again.
Dyson's scholarship and activism has been lacking these days. I used to hold him in high regard, but it seems like - nowadays - he's just in it to sell his books. Comparing Jay-Z, a staunch capitalist, to MLK, an opponent of capitalism, is not only disingenuous, it's problematic. We have not had a leader like MLK since his untimely murder.
Never mind Jim Crowe or redlining and racist minorities and immigrants who get unearned benefits on foundational black Americans descendant of slaves back🗣️💯
Moorish empire Moor 711-1492 total different conversation. He is talking about mindset, & ways of handling things. Which indeed does have a huge impact of the progress of the community. Like he said, MLK never played the victim game. He stood for what he believed in and fought what was against him. No finger pointing.
the suppression of leadership, the culture embracing ignorance at every turn, not investing in black business, letting the government into our houses (benefits)... yeah we need change. We need to hold on to our dollars like every other ethnicity does.
Moorish empire Moor 711-1492 FBA got that info from ADOS. Don’t forget to mention them. They been speaking the truth about Slave Z. ruclips.net/video/nvwJ3vCqFEI/видео.html
Yeah, but they say the good Dr. has health problems. But nah the breakfast club will max out with Umar Johnson & Tariq Nasheed as far as REAL black thought interviews are concerned. They will have Dyson on all day.
" My sheep shall hear my voice and i know them and they follow me" John 10;27. If your confused which voice your hearing in the darkness its cause you lack discernment.
I use to like M.E.Dyson but as You get older you have to evolve an i honestly believe any person that is good friends with Steven A, speaks on jay-z as if he was god or find reason to some how blame kap for not signing his rights/life over needs to be reevaluated
He wasn't preaching. The Harriet movie was boycotted due to Cynthia's lack of transparency with her possible slave trading background, and her and everyone on the movie refused to speak out against Comcast who owns the rights to the movie. In real time Comcast is undoing the 14th amendment Harriet lived to see the passage of and fought for. Not to mention the fact Harriet never identified as African and once when asked should we go back she said no. She identified as American. So the statement that Cynthia had more of right is an slap in the face to us and our American ancestors whose bones are here unlike Cynthia's ancestors. A West African having more of a right to play an American? Now if you want real preaching and ready for real work. Tune into Yvette Carnell's Channel on YT tonight at 10 PM. The book we are reading for the book club is called : "They were her property" It will be discussed end of January. Tonight Yvette might be talking about this pseudo intellect. He's the reason why African Americans should be banned from academia. Stem only. Academia doesn't produce Black revolutionary people. His boots are on the ground. His boots are in a top 30 school with a 8% Black student body, which half are probably Black immigrants. Have a blessed day and Tune into Yvette tonight.
Remember he’s on a book tour, he’s responding to questions created to provoke thought and offer perspective. Each person has a right to a perspective. 99% of these comments are exactly what he’s talking about. We get divided over 1 or 2 feelings, or opinions when we all agree on the principle...
@@carnellmosley4315 many "intelligent" people hide their intelligence "under a barrel." Those who TELL people how "intelligent" they are, usually talk too much, too fast. Comes across as glib.
Jeez! This is hard to listen to. Dyson is just an fan at this point. How do you compare J to MLK Jr. with a straight face? J’s primary focus is his own financial bottom line. Let’s not act like he’s making these grave sacrifices for the betterment of black folks. He’s not. He may have some personal projects that help individuals but he has also been the cause of black men going to jail. He is using the nfl to help himself just like him disparaging Kap is for himself, to ingratiate him with the team owners.
We should all focus on our own financial bottom line. Poor people cant help other poor people. We have this jacked up way of how black people should move forward because we seem to find some type of virtue in being poor. We put all these rules and guidelines on how to move forward when in reality we hold each other back. Money and wealth will always be an factor in anything we do. Black people keep asking for a seat at the table, instead of building your own table. And when we build our own table, then other black people are there to tell you that you didnt build your own table the right way an accuse you of being money hungry. So at the end of the day, you do what is best for your household and leave it at that.
Nikki Williams I’m not saying he shouldn’t, but let’s not lionize him and act like he is doing something selfless for black folks when he’s not. He is an opportunist and a business man neither are bad things. Yet him shrouding his business calculations for him and his family and acting like he is supporting Kaep or his cause is a lie.
@@Erin_Bee i understand what you are saying. But if jay z wasnt a billionaire, would we think he was doing things for the betterment of the people? MLK and the others were not poor people, but highly educated middle class black people. Sometimes, i think we assume that all people do is go after money or only do things that would only benefit them in the end. Who really knows a persons heart, because you damned if you do and damned if you dont. But i get it, its like a person that only does volunteer work because it looks good on the resume, but their heart isnt in it and they could careless.
@@DERTMY1 regardless, i think black people have been brainwashed to despise and hate money and think its evil and the people who have it, they are evil too. Its not the love of money that makes you evil. The money is just a tool. Money just amplifies who you are: if you were an a**hole when you were poor, you"re just a bigger a**hole with money, if you were a humble giving person when you were poor, you are just a bigger giver. I think we spend to much time trying regulate other peoples checkbooks when some of us cant balance our own.
I keep thinking that the gay thing is a troll that he has fun with, but it’s like he can’t help but be gay. He should come out and represent that community.
Michael Dyson was one of my favorite people for the last few years. In Iraq, as an escape, i read his book to help me mentally but the support for Stephen "Toby" Smith got me confused. Stephen was preaching with an hidden agenda and Eric is aware of this but failed to admit it.
I said the same thing about the beehive and Jay fans. Just last year, they would dog people for not agreeing with Kap and kneeling but since Jay said they're past it, they're talking about Kap like he was never for the community smh
@@jarrodbrown2323 this guy has been fighting in favor of Jay Z since his deal with the nfl came out. Hell he left the breakfast club and went back to ESPN today, the second time in the last two months.
DropSixteenTV Tv that’s wild. What’s even crazier is that Eric Dyson is supposed to be a sociologist. I’m in graduate school for sociology and traditionally the discipline is very critical of institutions and capitalism. He doesn’t have any critique of Jay-Z. Nothing wrong with crediting his accomplishments but there is plenty to critique on Jay-Z with his faux social movement efforts and his amoral capitalistic exploits.
Well Done Dyson. Thank you for the analogous comparison of Jay Z. It yielded a more positive understanding and added a fundamental dynamic to his purpose in the movement of our generation
The Jay-Z/ Kaepernick debate is really a debate on symbolism vs actionable items. I think a large amount of us(black people) have confused symbolism with action. We think Martin Luther king marching was action, but him joining with president LBJ to sign the civil rights act as selling out. Confusing Obama singing Marvin Gays song or having blacks over at the White House as action, but Obama pushing for equal rights for gays ( which includes blacks) as selling out. I'm not saying symbolism is bad or not needed, what I am saying is we have been deprived as a people for so long that we are conditioned to confuse the two. Jay-Z was loved by blacks because he symbolized success and what a "black family should look like". He is now hated because he dared to produce an actionable item.
Wow I always enjoy listening to MED. He always brings perspective. The take away is to understand historical context and get an understanding before popping off with all of these damn protests. He makes intellect cool. I'll take him any day over some of these new social media "personalities" because his perspective is based on facts and historical relevance. Unfortunately in today's society emotions is what drives the conversation and not well researched and sought out information.
Who else agrees that at this point Jay-Z might as well do a song honouring Michael Eric Tyson and Michael Eric Tyson might as well start a HBCU University of Jay-Z?
Yo, have Cornel West on next time instead of this clown, comparing a billionaire making another business transaction to anti capitalist MLK fighting for civil rights, get outta here

Transfigure* it... black expression*
Yes, thank you for catching this! I thought to myself "where is the transcript for this interview."
Dyson compared Jay Z and the NFL to MLK Jr and UNITED STATES civil rights movement. I understand it, but it doesn't compare based on impact to black people
Let me ask you something.... Is there still racism today?
@@VandalVanWilder why are you asking me this question? my comment has nothing to do with racism! the conversation should focus on the original comment not your agenda
8th Rank Mindset he’s not objective when it comes to JayZ
Agreed
@@jakefever you're avoiding the question because you know the answer. But go ahead and hide in your shell fam, because you can't talk about civil rights without racism
Imagine all the SAT words youd hear in a conversation between him and T.I...
ha ha ha. Yeah that is like a joke I heard, imagine if DMX, Mystikal Ja Rule were roomates, all that scratchy ass voices, the arguments. ha ha ha
Lmao but I don’t get the joke
@@YcMdattGUY - yeah , probably had to be there in real time, it was said after a few soundbites.

Social media got idiots thinking they smarter than the life long intellectual professors like Michael Dyson. 🤦🏿♂️ Preach Mike!💯
Kharismatik _ Yup
🤜🏿👏🏿👊🏿
Kharismatik _ You know he supports gay people, right?
Truth
But why we always have to conflate our struggle with the LGBTQ struggle? And we can’t be critical of Israel or Jews? We get “Cancelled” if we oppose them. But wait? I thought we had freedom of speech under the 1st Amendment? Something ain’t right about that and our so called intellectuals are co opting this censorship movement!!
It's hard to be objective discussing your friends.
Not really , just aslong as you keep balance and tell all sides of a person , the triumphs and shortcomings

@@freshmediaconcept that's what the hard part is.
Preach
And when you are peddling a book about your friend. Dyson loves to run his mouth and dazzle listeners with SAT words and say a lot of nothing. Jay Z has NO POWER in regards to the NFL. He is an entertainment pawn.
I wish y’all would listen to the entire interview and get the whole message instead of simply seeing the name Jayz (who some people dislike anyway and want to bash regardless of the context) and not miss the substance of what he’s discussing. 💎
Brother welcome to the black people’s mind. All what he said was brushed aside because they only hear he writes about Jay-Z. If we black people don’t grow out of this mindset our children to come will always be the underdogs.
Good point but this community will always be less than with constant delusions of being kings and queens.
For real brother
Bottom line who cares about jay z get a life
Eazy November substance?? Where was it brotha? A lot of jay z dick eating and rhyme spitting.. then his advice for Kaep is to go through with the workout anyway. Even tho they wanted Kaep to sign away his rights. What type of shot is that? That’s not substance. That’s kow towing. That’s advice from a man who clearly has an agenda.
What’s the point of bringing up Jackie Robinson and Ali and Jack Johnson? If Ali taught us anything. It’s that black people should stand and fight for their principles.
I used to support and had some degree of respect for Michael Eric Dyson, but now that it's become obvious that he's joined the wicked industry clique to help push this demonic narrative about Jay Z being the voice of Black culture (Al Sharpton's and Jessie Jackson's replacement moving forward...and notice how Al and Jessie have been suddenly deprogrammed and silenced) and continues to keep Jay Z's nuts in his mouth, I have officially cancelled him and put him on mute. I'm so sick of this group think doctrine being forced down society's throats. Jay Z is a mess just like his face and hair and he's not my leader and he NEVER will be.
Carmen CaBoom yeah I don't understand the obsession with rich blk celebs... like it's not ok to write about normal people wit integrity
Noone said he was a leader, dear. Just a brother doing well for himself. That needs applauding.
So are you going to step up and be that leader or.... Nah?

He said the key. You don’t have to be under the same banner to be on the same side. As long as you represent the same principles. But, this is the generation of do-whatever. We didn’t get strong foundation, and things are comfortable enough that we didn’t form strong, solidified principles to stand on. Social media is a reflection of life - people go with whichever way the wind blows. Same as opinions on social media. Us young people got a lot of growing to do, but, overall we mean well and want things to be better
EliteBlackSash well said u got the most important fact in this interview we don’t all have to agree but stop hating one another
The stuff you said about our generation makes no sense. The issue is someone like Jay Z doesn’t have the same principles and then a lying ass academic that has a book to sell provides cover for him. Then people fall for the bullshit cause they say a couple of blackity black things. People gotta learn what pro-black even means. It doesn’t mean cheering for rich niggas just cuz they got richer.
@@spalm3887 so it means tearing down fellow brothers and sisters in public and on social media?🤔👨🏾💻👀 Is that pro black?

Marcellus Banks what culture exactly?....
Whats that
@@hyuugafan2 Our African American culture
@@djbrowm1562 Africa...named after a white man. America...named after a white man. The "culture" you speak of isn't even ours lol. The clothes, the cars, the labels...we don't own ANY of it. You're an Israelite homie. Reading is fundamental.
Imma leave this here. You can decide for yourself...
(REV 1:13-15).."And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters." What race of people have hair like wool? BLACK PEOPLE. And his feet like unto fine brass as if they BURNED IN A FURNACE. Christ is a black man.
(DAN 10:5-6).."Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz: His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude." Just in case one scripture of Christ being a black man wasn't enough.
(DAN 7:9).."I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire." The Ancient of days = he's older than earth aka God. He had hair like wool as well.
(REV 21:12).."And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:"
(REV 7:4-8).."And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand." What tribe are you from???
144,000 Israelites will inherit the kingdom. Everyone else (White, Asian, East Indian, Arab, etc.) will be slaves...(IS 14:1-2).."For the Lord will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob. And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the Lord for servants and handmaids: and they shall take them captives, whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors."
Did you know that slavery was a curse put on the Israelites aka "Blacks, Hispanics, and native Indians? And there's no amount of marching, protesting, voting OR ANYTHING that anyone (MLK, Malcolm X, Marcus Garvey, Obama...all false prophets) can do about it. ONLY GOD can change things. And we must KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS for him to do so. (HOS 5:14-15).."For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue him. I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early." He's not playing. He will not save us until we get right!!!
In (DEUT 28:1,15,20,28,30,32-35,37,43,44-50,61,64,68) it talks about the blessings and curses that would be put on us. If you feel this chapter in your SOUL...THIS BIBLE IS YOUR HISTORY BOOK AND IS FOR YOU AND NO ONE ELSE! (ROM 8:16).."The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:..." IF YOU GET CHILLS WHEN YOU READ (DEUT 28)...YOU ARE AN ISRAELITE. THE CHOSEN ONES. Shalom.

The problem with Cynthia Errivo playing Harriet Tubman was the fact the she insulted African-Americans many times on the social media and then turns around and plays one of the most Iconic African-Americans ever. Stop trying to make this about AA not liking her because shes is not from here.
cpatterson22 He knows that. He is just doing what his masters told him to do.
What did Cynthia Erivo say in Social Media that was anti-AA?
I don't know of one person who has not grown up ignorant to who they are and what they are saying. The question is have they matured and now know better. I don't like hollier than thou folk who want to have the right to be annoyed at a stranger and they bleed like everyone else. I've said some ignorant shit about us back in the day too so I better hope I don't become famous.

Michael Eric Dyson
Wow!
I’ve learned from Dr. Michael Eric Dyson and he has shifted my career and my thinking and I love him dearly.
However, please be critical of Jay z as you were of the 44th President. Jay Z did sell out Kap. If he has helped Colin get a try out it was bc he was he was already planning his stake in NFL all while trying to help so-called help Colin. Jay z is in my top 5 but he was being strategic in his motive at the expense of Kap the whole time. Jay z ain’t crazy.
I love Jayz, I love Kap, I love Dr Dyson. But, let’s critic honestly and in love 💙
Critique*
How did he sell out Kap if he was a big factor in him getting a chance in the first place ? Like come on, yall gotta stop creating an agenda and take things for what it is. Jay Z actually stepped up to the plate and tried to help, that doesnt sound like a sell out to me. Your statement is literally the problem Dr. Dyson was talking about . Always calling another black a sell out when trying to make moves when helping others in the community. Im curious if you were in Jay position within the situation, what would you do?
Like come on, Thats the problem. Black people quick to call a successful black person a sell out but are giving no solutions to make change.
@@Remnant.Garments7 So Jay helped Kap out by organizing a sham workout?
The evidence suggests that the purpose of the sham workout was to get his signature on a document which would prevent him from suing them again.
Hold on Jay didn't need Kap? Think about it Jay good been good before Kap

Are you listening?
He's dropping turds..and we know ur listening
Didn’t even have to read the title to watch! Love Mr.Dyson interviews and his love of HOV is just a bonus.
Dyson's scholarship and activism has been lacking these days. I used to hold him in high regard, but it seems like - nowadays - he's just in it to sell his books. Comparing Jay-Z, a staunch capitalist, to MLK, an opponent of capitalism, is not only disingenuous, it's problematic. We have not had a leader like MLK since his untimely murder.
Ur profile pic look
Disappointing
I love the Jewels 💎 dropped on this. He spoke nothing but Facts on MLK! They didn’t love him until he was gone. Rest In Power ✊🏽
He should teach his class on Jay Z online...or some kind of streaming service. Possibly BET plus, or some other platform like that.
"If you do what you have to do now, You can do what you want to do later". ~Denzel Washington

Moorish empire Moor 711-1492 total different conversation. He is talking about mindset, & ways of handling things. Which indeed does have a huge impact of the progress of the community. Like he said, MLK never played the victim game. He stood for what he believed in and fought what was against him. No finger pointing.

He is an ordained minister.
Mayone Official does that make it hard for you to digest what he’s saying?
nadirah naima it was quite annoying but I understood his points.
He wasn't preaching. The Harriet movie was boycotted due to Cynthia's lack of transparency with her possible slave trading background, and her and everyone on the movie refused to speak out against Comcast who owns the rights to the movie. In real time Comcast is undoing the 14th amendment Harriet lived to see the passage of and fought for. Not to mention the fact Harriet never identified as African and once when asked should we go back she said no. She identified as American. So the statement that Cynthia had more of right is an slap in the face to us and our American ancestors whose bones are here unlike Cynthia's ancestors. A West African having more of a right to play an American? Now if you want real preaching and ready for real work. Tune into Yvette Carnell's Channel on YT tonight at 10 PM. The book we are reading for the book club is called : "They were her property" It will be discussed end of January. Tonight Yvette might be talking about this pseudo intellect. He's the reason why African Americans should be banned from academia. Stem only. Academia doesn't produce Black revolutionary people. His boots are on the ground. His boots are in a top 30 school with a 8% Black student body, which half are probably Black immigrants. Have a blessed day and Tune into Yvette tonight.

MIKE: IS this a black on radio station💥
Jeez! This is hard to listen to. Dyson is just an fan at this point. How do you compare J to MLK Jr. with a straight face? J’s primary focus is his own financial bottom line. Let’s not act like he’s making these grave sacrifices for the betterment of black folks. He’s not. He may have some personal projects that help individuals but he has also been the cause of black men going to jail. He is using the nfl to help himself just like him disparaging Kap is for himself, to ingratiate him with the team owners.
We should all focus on our own financial bottom line. Poor people cant help other poor people. We have this jacked up way of how black people should move forward because we seem to find some type of virtue in being poor. We put all these rules and guidelines on how to move forward when in reality we hold each other back. Money and wealth will always be an factor in anything we do. Black people keep asking for a seat at the table, instead of building your own table. And when we build our own table, then other black people are there to tell you that you didnt build your own table the right way an accuse you of being money hungry. So at the end of the day, you do what is best for your household and leave it at that.
Nikki Williams I’m not saying he shouldn’t, but let’s not lionize him and act like he is doing something selfless for black folks when he’s not. He is an opportunist and a business man neither are bad things. Yet him shrouding his business calculations for him and his family and acting like he is supporting Kaep or his cause is a lie.
@@Erin_Bee i understand what you are saying. But if jay z wasnt a billionaire, would we think he was doing things for the betterment of the people? MLK and the others were not poor people, but highly educated middle class black people. Sometimes, i think we assume that all people do is go after money or only do things that would only benefit them in the end. Who really knows a persons heart, because you damned if you do and damned if you dont. But i get it, its like a person that only does volunteer work because it looks good on the resume, but their heart isnt in it and they could careless.
@@DERTMY1 regardless, i think black people have been brainwashed to despise and hate money and think its evil and the people who have it, they are evil too. Its not the love of money that makes you evil. The money is just a tool. Money just amplifies who you are: if you were an a**hole when you were poor, you"re just a bigger a**hole with money, if you were a humble giving person when you were poor, you are just a bigger giver. I think we spend to much time trying regulate other peoples checkbooks when some of us cant balance our own.

DropSixteenTV Tv that’s wild. What’s even crazier is that Eric Dyson is supposed to be a sociologist. I’m in graduate school for sociology and traditionally the discipline is very critical of institutions and capitalism. He doesn’t have any critique of Jay-Z. Nothing wrong with crediting his accomplishments but there is plenty to critique on Jay-Z with his faux social movement efforts and his amoral capitalistic exploits.

Loved every word of this interview!
Well Done Dyson. Thank you for the analogous comparison of Jay Z. It yielded a more positive understanding and added a fundamental dynamic to his purpose in the movement of our generation
The Jay-Z/ Kaepernick debate is really a debate on symbolism vs actionable items. I think a large amount of us(black people) have confused symbolism with action. We think Martin Luther king marching was action, but him joining with president LBJ to sign the civil rights act as selling out. Confusing Obama singing Marvin Gays song or having blacks over at the White House as action, but Obama pushing for equal rights for gays ( which includes blacks) as selling out. I'm not saying symbolism is bad or not needed, what I am saying is
we have been deprived as a people for so long that we are conditioned to confuse the two.
Jay-Z was loved by blacks because he symbolized success and what a "black family should look like".
He is now hated because he dared to produce an actionable item.
"When you have an asterisk, it's because your ass aint at risk"
BARZZZ!!!!!
Wow I always enjoy listening to MED. He always brings perspective. The take away is to understand historical context and get an understanding before popping off with all of these damn protests. He makes intellect cool. I'll take him any day over some of these new social media "personalities" because his perspective is based on facts and historical relevance. Unfortunately in today's society emotions is what drives the conversation and not well researched and sought out information.
Who else agrees that at this point Jay-Z might as well do a song honouring Michael Eric Tyson and Michael Eric Tyson might as well start a HBCU University of Jay-Z?
