Nov 25, 2008 - how prophetic you are

Feb 11, 2009 - A great man with so much a captivating wisdom.

fctchk Says:

Apr 29, 2009 - Perhaps one of the most tragic ironies of history - the African American embrace of Christianity or Islam; a type of Mass Stockholm effect:"Slaves, obey your earthly masters with deep respect and fear. Serve them sincerely as you would serve Christ. " (Ephesians 6:5 NLT)Your slaves are your brethren upon whom Allah has given you authority. (Hadith - Sahih Al - Bukhari 3.721)

Jul 20, 2009 - Without Christianity, we wouldn't have had a Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Without Islam, we wouldn't have had a Malcolm X. Churches and mosques provided third places--places outside the racist political hierarchy of the United States--that allowed for the cultivation of black leaders and logistical centers without which the U.S. couldn't have had a Civil Rights Movement. No irony in that.Keep listening to Dr. West and you'll learn about a prophetic (rather than priestly) Christianity.

Jul 21, 2009 - how is the book race matters?

fctchk Says:

Jul 23, 2009 - Followers of religion which incontrovertibly condones slavery in its "holy" books use the buildings where they normally practice their religion as logistical centers to organize the civil rights movement. I too am delighted it happened but that does not make it any less ironic.Theology renders Mr. West's tenuous stature as an intellectual rather more so.

Jul 25, 2009 - It's the most prophetic & Illuminating book that I've ever read. It got me how not to become a raceist person!

Sep 17, 2009 - How do you keep a people down? You 'never' let them 'know' their history.The 7th Cavalry got their butts in a sling again after Little Big Horn, fourteen years later, the day after the Wounded Knee Massacre. If it wasn't for the 9th Cavalry Buffalo Soldiers, there would of been a second massacre of the 7th Cavalry. Read, and visit site/history, rescue at pine ridge. com

Oct 15, 2009 - Slaves, obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling, with a sincere heart, as you would Christ, not by the way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart. Render service with a good attitude, as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that whatever good each one does, slave or free, he will receive this back from the Lord.

jeoref Says:

Oct 15, 2009 - And masters, treat them the same way, without threatening them, because you know that both their and your Master is in heaven, and there is no favoritism with Him—Ephesians 6:5-9"..when thinking about slavery we tend to have in mind the recent slavery of the black race in America, and so the whole subject of slavery gets mixed up with the issue of racism. But in ancient times, slavery was not associated with any particular race. By condoning slavery the Bible does not approve of racism."

Mar 13, 2010 - I am glad to hear that Cornel West had such great influence on you. This man is my inspiration, and I think we need guidance from such men.

CoasTbeaTs Says:

Mar 22, 2010 - We r slaves in islam. Thats the main point in Islam to worship to submit your life to God, no muslim will deny that but that is what motivates muslims that they believe in this ultimate being who will care for those who cared for him

Nov 9, 2010 - audio and video are hideously out of synch, but Dr West is wonderful no matter what!

Xytos Says:

Jan 22, 2011 - you dumb nigros really need to learn how to synch your videos!

TheRnigel1 Says:

Jan 27, 2011 - ...Ordinarily this would provoke a response from someone with a similar racist overtone which you so richly deserve. On the contrary, I'll only thank you for giving thought to one of the greatest intellectual minds in history(Dr. West) I suggest that you continue to become enlightened and concentrate issues far more significant than a video being out of sync(correct spelling). Stop wasting your time on trivial details that are of no consequence to the outcome.

Xytos Says:

Jan 27, 2011 - it provoked a response from faggot (you), let's hope it inspire better editting when the video is uploaded. unless niggers are too stupid.

TheRnigel1 Says:

Jan 27, 2011 - ...There was a time when I would engage you in a useless diatribe regarding your ignorance because you amuse me. Unfortunately, it would be as pointless as this response. Therefore, this concludes our dialogue.

Xytos Says:

Jan 27, 2011 - unfortunately, u still do. this is the second time you responded.

Xytos Says:

Jan 28, 2011 - i just realized that you tried to correct my spelling on the word "synch" you're a fucking idiot. first off i was abbreviating the word (which is also spelled synch). and secondly, the whole word is spell as 'synchronization'. what a fucking dumb ass.
