- James Baldwin Speaks! "America, it is not the Negro problem, it is your problem!"
Absolutely fiery speech to the Los Angeles The Non-Violent Action Committee December 1964. NVAC was formed by militant dissenters from the Congress of Racial Equality. The talk includes a question and answers session.
Very powerful speech indeed
Thank you for putting this out there, acts like yours threaten to redeem youtube and the internet etc haha. I'm so grateful. It feels miraculous to hear these shining moments - they hit so intensely despite the vast span of time. His lucidity seems sharpened by the crescendo'ing tension - so fucking urgent and decisive, but essentially placid (ie: "No." @ 39:34). Thanks also for including these incredible portraits and this transcription, too. What a soul Baldwin was, and what luck that these microphones were around to catch the outlines of these crucial moments. It hurts that his frustration amplifies the message, that I can understand him better when he's driven to simplify it. It also hurts that his diagnoses remain both pertinent and resourceful in 2024. But there really are no better diagnoses than his. 🇺🇸
Dammm James tells the truth like no other. He exposes evil like no other
Baldwin was so brilliant.
38:43. he saw this SIXTY years ago.
38:43 Can you believe Baldwin said this 60 years ago? Three generations born since this speech.
We live in a the most corrupt place on earth
38:43 60 years ago
Oh wow. What a phenomenal speech, indeed. Baldwin nails it.
He's so Heart.
10/10
Unfortunately the audio fades out and gets fuzzy at a few points.. overall a must listen to speech for any American.
Nobody exposed the “MAN” like James this why he was hidden
