HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 авг 2024
- Dr. Greg Carr, head of Africana Studies at Howard University, discuss the importance of leaning on history and building on institutional memory. He also delivers a harsh critique of the play "Hamilton." We also talk about Broadway plays like "Arms Too Short to Box With God," Ralph Carter, Laurence Fishburne, Wesley Snipes and #Blade (the first #Marvel movie to make money), Ryan Coogler, Michael B. Jordan and Black Panther. This is a smorgasbord! #InClasswithCarr #Hamilton #LinManuelMiranda #KarenHunter

When Dr. Carr touches his glasses... get ready to have your mind blown.
That's right sis...it's like saying "and this will be on the test"
Absolutely
Major facts!
Exactly 😄
See ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😀
How does Dr. Carr remember EVERYTHING?! pure genius!!
I’m so glad I’m not the only person conflicted by Hamilton.
You're not alone, Sis!! I REFUSE to fall for the RUSE!!
You are definitely not alone
Todd Maek the persons portrayed would be Africans both enslaved and free, not ADOS who is exclusive and only embraces one Black experience in America. Y’all have your own issues beyond American theatre. A Slave Play was pure garbage.
Dr Carr always opens my eyes.
I loved Hamilton particularly for the quality of the rap.
But I get it.
Dr Carr on a Tuesday? Prof Hunter, you tease. Let me feed my kids so I can get some evening knowledge. 👍🏿
I watched this Hamilton and seethed! Slaves dug the grave he's buried. The "immigrants get the job done" is slap in the face to the Slaves who built New York. I could never be in that audience.
Karen again thank you for these phenomenal lessons with Dr. Carr. Even though Rona is live and well class is still in session.
Lord, bless me with Dr. Carr's ability to remember everythang he study! My favorite dynamic duo!
If you didn't bring something to write things down with during a Dr. Carr discussion you just played yourself.

This conversation is more than mentally stimulating!!! Thank you both again!
Nothing is a better surprise then finding a new sessions with Dr Carr and Karen Hunter, thank you!
Yal never fail to educate with this series.. I'm so grateful as a young black man to gain this knowledge from people so willing to share it.. Thanks Dr. Carr and Karen! Love yal✊🏽 keep em coming.
Dr. Carr thanks for your brilliant insight on Hamilton.
Not only Black children in the United States, but Puerto Rican youth in the colony now will have to UNLEARN this Disneyfication of history. Ask university students in Puerto Rico who protested the play Hamilton post-Hurricane María.
Hamilton is not a Disney production....
If our children are relying on “Disneyfication” to learn history, we have bigger problems to address.
I talk to one lady from Puerto Rico and she goes on and on about how corrupt her own people are. It's really disturbing. We are fighting a lot of self-hate within various minority communities.
@@1hotshon Puerto Rico is a colony and our colonial administrators are corrupt. That is not self-hatred. That is the truth. Which is why we continue to struggle for our independence and we have not vanished from this earth despite United States oppression. Have a good day.
@@scholarlytalkonlife4143 Known that since the very first day it premiered on Broadway. Its streaming on the Disney channel, in addition to its misinterpretation of U.S. historical figures makes it the perfect contemporary substitute to Disney's "Song of the South". In other words, "Disneyfication".
Love me some Dr. Clark! "we have no friends! if you need a friend look in the mirror!"
@@michellehenson984 Watch Dr. Clark, you have no friends on youtube. Short and powerful.
So much Hamilton content, my historían heart is happy!! I’m so ready to learn on a Tuesday!! John Roberts defiantly uses his historical knowledge, we are in a larger cycle. The selective look at history is interesting in this musical. I do feel that there has to be scholarship that comes with working on Historical Musicals. I feel like there is always a risk we must take, but if we think about money we have to look at Broadway historically. Now is the time to use the star power that Hamilton has given actors and actresses to learn our history. The mixtape is so powerful, Dr. Carr always reminds me to use my whole historical brain. Immigration in time has changed, that meaning of us versus them idea. That Marvel conversation has just blown my mind. Thank you for more knowledge!!
Institutions, especially independent Black institutions, are critical and need to be protected.
I remember 1st world lectures. The slave theater in Brooklyn. House of the Lord Church in Brooklyn is where Dr. Clarke, Dr. Ben and Ivan Van Sertima and others on Wednesdays.
@@tianawashington8869 it was and I will never forget it. At the time I didn't realize just how special it was.
Harlemite here, who enjoyed many a lecture at First World! I made a few at the Bklyn Slave too. They were like an extension of Africana Studies after graduating college. Listening to Profs. Carr and Hunter reminds me of how much more there is to learn.
Dr. Carr--that's my professor at HU! Love that man!
I knew it before Dr. Carr said it. I 👁 the set up...dang. So glad we got the Great and Mighty Walk docu. I pray ALL that was given as a vision will be released and unstoppable. No more spiritual divide.🦋💙🙏🏾🤲🏾👍🏾
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 🙌🏽 Class is in SESSION y'all!! Come on in 'students'. We have Professor Karen Hunter and Dr. Greg Carr CORRECTING the his..story!! I'm LOVIN it!!!👍👍👍👍💕💯
I really appreciate this conversation. We were discussing Hamilton "at work" the Monday after it premiered on Disney Plus. And my boss was quick to ask me what I thought. First off, I had NO IDEA that this show was about Alexander Hamilton. Two, I had to watch with the subtitles in order to follow along. So when asked my opinion, I stated I was conflicted at best. Given our current climate, why was this even shown. Then I thought more about it. The big push was to let everyone know that it would debut on July 3rd. So it was released just in time for folks to watch as they "celebrated" the 4th of July. Although Dr. Carr introduced Frederick Douglas' 5th of July speech in to my awareness, watching this Hamilton foolishness was the impetus for to actually READ the speech.
I guess the show was supposed to be some sort of achievement for actors/actresses of color. But I wholeheartedly agree, this could have done with another subject matter.
Lastly, Dr. Carr always pays homage to his southern roots. But he ALWAYS has a Philadelphia reference...💕💕💕 Come on home, Dr. Carr, come on home.
Dr. Carr! Teach Sir!!
Love you Dr. Hunter and Dr.Carr.
Love you back!
I knew Dr. Carr would be on the same page as me. F Hamilton.
Thank you K. Hunter and Dr. Carr
I can listen to him kick knowledge all day!
Is there anything that Dr. Carr doesn’t know. His memory is like “goggle”. And btw, I didn’t care for Hamilton and I love Broadway.
I think google researched dr carr before creating it lol
@@DevaJones03 YES!
But he be killing me....he start out telling you something and the he gets sidetracked and send you down 4 or 5 more rabbit holes that you feel compelled to research....I love my homework and professors though..💕💕
Terrance Shaw -He just wants to ensure that your findings are grounded in evidence and you always remember that understanding reasoning is our greatest learning curve. But when we find better understandings then that leads you to more clarity and factuality.
I guess I need to learn to spell. “Google”😉 And yes I agree with DevaJones03. And Terrance Shaw, he gets sooo excited, I have to giggle and then make a note of the book that I need to read.
The artistry of Hamilton is genius. Had I watched it with the expectation of seeing an accurate portrayal of the times, I would've been disappointed.
I appreciate the journey. And I appreciate "we're black in America, we are going have conflict."
All of these issues have nuance, have complexity, & have context that we need to explore. That's why knowing our history matters!
Thank you for these continued conversations!
Hearing this conversation confirms my notion about not seeing this play.
So in 💙💙 with this Podcast. So educational
& informative.
THANK YOU. MS. Karen & Dr. Carr are EVERYTHING to a conversation. So balancing.
The Black Nerd inside Dr. Carr really comes out when he talks about the Marvel Universe. So cool, because I never noticed it before. I'll be sure to tune in for the next installment!
Thank you very much for the educational journey Dr. Carr and Karen hunter. Much love Geojo
Thanks, Tahir's daddy!
@@KarenHunterShow hoping In Class with Carr can discuss the history of the Jews. It would be interesting to hear his historical analagy. Thx much love Geojo
@@KarenHunterShow looking forward to meeting you.
✊🏿💥💥💥I just love learning from you both Thank you Karen Hunter Thank you Dr. Greg Carr
It’s 1am here, gotta sleep and want to listen so’s I can take in everything you are sharing with us. I’ll be back but thank you in the meantime. 😊
Get some rest...we're not going anywhere.
🇵🇷✊🏽✊🏼✊🏾"Did you go to Schomburg...?" 🤣 TRUTH!
Individual versus institutions discussion is absolutely what I needed today!
Love you. Keep up the Great work and yes as Dr. Carr said please get brother Wesley Snipes
Dr. Carr with the black history knowledge 💯💥💯!!
Thank you! I thought I was the only one who couldn’t get with Hamilton for historical reasons.
A midweek blessing. Thank you Queen.
Then get the stories, write the plays, take them to Tyler Perry studios, work to get them financed, then get them made.
Dr. Carr👑💯👑
Yes, "Buck White" was Muhammad Ali's play. Y'all hit the history of Broadway on this one. I'd heard that the feds vamped on Wesley because of that documentary, but I didn't know he had such awesome plans. As always, you are both continuing the legend! God bless and stay safe.
Thanks for this conversation!!!
yes!!!!!! Dr Carr only once a week is not enough!!!!
You certainly have a different perspective after the book recommended " The Counter Revolution of 1776". What an eye opening book. Thank you. Remember Black Panther was a global phenomenon. Africa was happy to see the movie also.
The New Minstrel Show, performed by "Minstrels of Colour."😉
Dr. car you have taken me back to the 80’s I attended college city college in New York in 1981 to 83 it was amazing and you know who professor were🤗🤗🤗All the greats
Wow, y'all went all the way in!!!
Thank you for all that you do💞
Our pleasure!
Who are the13 people giving these jewels of knowledge a thumbs down?
As usual so enlightening!!! Thank you 😊
We should fund ourselves ONLY!!!!!!🖤🖤🖤
Well, I enjoyed Hamilton, the talent was awesome, my daughter has already watched it 3 times 😊😊😊
I'm glad they only meet once a week, cause I need 6 days to process all of this information. The paradigm shift is disorienting!
Wait y'all had a night class?🧐...
Lemme write down these notes y'all done put a whole curriculum out while I was at work...I wasn't ready for class this late at night..🤣🤣😂🤓🤓📚📚📗📙
August Wilson, the ground I stand on ,, wow how educational and Wesley Snipes was going to make a movie about Dr. John Henrik Clark, what a great scholar
Dr. Carr is an interesting man. I knew that August Wilson would only allow black directors to make movies out of his books. What I did not know was that Wesley wanted to do Black panther. This explains why the Blade series was trashed, and Wesley wound up in prison on trumped-up-charges (no pun intended.) Even the movie Hancock was to ridicule the very IDEA of a black superhero (hence no sequel.)
Dropping gems on us.
Dr Greg Carr,,,,, knowledge is power.
Getting my NERD on!
My husband and I turned on Hamilton last weekend, and said this wasn't for black people. I felt like it was giving a piece of black culture ( music, rapping) to white people when they don't fully participate in it. I know white people who have listened to the soundtrack before ever seeing the play, and love every song. Those same white people claim to enjoy rap music when I know they don't.
I ain't smart wordsmith, but Dr. Carr ain't never lied. I remember Snipes wanting to be the Black Panther - I wondered what happened to that. A
Yes, we have reverted to madness wanting to follow and be like crazy behind white folk. The names you mentioned are our historical scholars Dr. Clark said - "we have no allies" and the street scholars are the best teachers out there. We used to respect them to the fullest.
Marvel Comics - I grew up with this stuff and glad happy for a great talk!
Wow dr carr on a tuesday. I cant get with Hamilton n l wonder how folks acting like he was a savior with a message we all need to live by. August wilson theater. Didnt know that. I heard that speech it was off thé chain it was also published. August was ahead of his time. Loved his plays especially fences with james earl jones.
I enjoy these conversations!
Spawn was the first movie. It came out in 1997. Granted, Blade did make a lot more money. but it was Spawn that show marvel how to make money.
I just love y’all so much!! Yalls videos really speak to my soul. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
thank you!
Wow nothing but the best 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Such knowledge you have shared. My wife and I saw “Hamilton” at a theatre in San Francisco and we thought the it was superb. But we knew nothing of the history of Hamilton. Nor did we know the things that you have shared.
But it seems like Disney found the formula for financial success through the Marvel franchise.
So they got the formula, we should do it too.
Wait a minute, I gotta get my paper and pencil...
Think differently about what it means to be funded...
Profound.
now we know...Wesley Snipes...had a dream. Snuffed out. But. Not forgotten. And will come forth regardless.
Thank you for this!
We Watch Karen's Show Daily In This House!! 📚
HEY!
Amazing
I love you for doing these videos. Thanks again!!!!!!!!!
Glad you like them!
Wow thank you guys, thank you guys
Our pleasure!
The Ralph Carter musical was "Raisin." Read Chrstine Acham' s book on the history of Blacks in television for very interesting chapters on "Good Times" and "Sanford And Son."
thanks, Professor!
Hamilton and Black panther are steps forward. They both help move the needle and are investments that have worked! A majority black cast telling the story of America was unprecedented in 2015 and he crafted it for years. Black Panther was released in 2018. Obama's election was in 2009...all have moved us forward! We can't look at everything with a 2020 lense and wonder why we didn't do more. Let's keep doing more in 2021, 22, 23... If it could have been done prior, it would have been 💞🙏🏾🤩
Most folks don't know that the documentary on Baba John Henrik Clarke, "A Great and Might Walk" was produced by Wesley Snipes and his Amen Ra Films company...and was looking to do one on Dr. Ben before they put the brakes on him.
Sis, to Dr. Carr's point would love to hear Wesley talk about producing A Great and Mighty Walk and what that experience was like and that impact on him today. Dr. Clarke "gave" me my African-ness,
Man🔥. Imma need to take about FOUR AAHHOURS! To digestive this good fruit! Gracias! Y Te Amo Ms. Hunter 💜
My man KNOW HIS MCU!!!
Top of the morning! I hope to hear a discussion on Nick Cannon's comments and the backlash.
RAISIN!! That is the name of the play Ralph Carter was in!!!! It says it in the credits of all of the Good Times shows!
Thank you!
Where did Dr. Carr get that t-shirt I need that ASAP.
There is an arrogance (ignorance) with present people that has us thinking 1) the world gave our ancestors different tools to work with, and 2) our understanding of life is deeper than theirs. Nope! Speaking to a 90-year old who was a former high-school teacher put white workplace attitudes in perspective for me. Knowing his experiences encompassed my experiences meant using his and my tools to undermine their sabotage. How could anyone think in the 21-c that s/he is the first to come up with a game plan to counter whasshole behaviour? That's reinventing the wheel when the manuals for making and managing the wheel can be found through research (talk and literature). We can add our experiences to theirs to make navigating North America easier for upcoming generations.
Period..🖤🖤🖤✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼
The Hamilton mixtape is straight up Fire imo.
The remix of my shot really hits home especially in this day and age
"We black in America. That mean conflict." #facts #bar
❤️ The Gospel at Colombia ❤️
Received no notification from RUclips
RUclips sucks for that.
Love ❤️ your knowledge
Michael...Raisin in the Son. He would ride the subway with His Elders staff back in the 80's i would see him on the Subway from BKNY To Harlem for M&A High and He would always speak to me; his postures and gate would glide with nobility as he navigated the quaking subway car. Lol
Raisin the musical based on... Lorraine's...
Dr. Carr is St8uP O.G With The Knowledge An Power' RESPECT Do
Can we have the convo about Roberts, J. too? Pretty please with a cherry on top?
Sister Karen, as usual yourself and Dr. Carr bring it. One aspect that I think about the concept of black people playing roles of white people, now sets the precedent that they have been wanting to do all along. That is them playing roles of black people, but now not getting dragged, because as I said the precedent has been set
Peace, as always this is beautiful!
Please consider addressing Nick Cannon’s current situation in future videos!
Peace!
✊🏾
up next...3:30...
"Ironman and dem."
I LOVE US🤎🖤🤎🖤
Dr Carr is dope....
Another 1💥💥💥
Yall are something, so many facts unknown wow ! I didn’t know anything about Wesley Snipes trying to get black movies done or his company.
FloAnn Gordon I didn’t know about Wesley Snipes trying to get black movies/documentaries done through his company. But you did here about his tax problems.
