The Problem with "A Nation of Cowards"

[BJT1975]

I got to agree with this guy because this country is still full of racist people that think that this worlds belong to them News Flash this is not a one race world is a nation of all people and now since we have a African American as a president there are whites and other races make up all types of racist names and it's just gets to show you how bad this country is. Also how can we hate another country while we can get along in this country that we live in Just doesn't make sense at all.

[rrt182002]

That's a first class Attorney General we got, Thanks for the good encouragement Eric Holder, I'm Praying for you too.

[trwhas]

This video is a perfect illustation of this topic. Notice the timing of the technical difficulty. Yet, everyone else were allowed to speak. Sombody's afraid of the truth. The Bible states that Satan hates the truth!

[jfyne]

wow... wow... we are not responsible... wow

[utahpirateradio]

This is an important topic, please see my last two vids about race in America! thx!

[QueenFantasi]

Neuter -that bullshit's from a racist, ignorant book. To apply those characteristics only to Blacks is ignorant and stupid. Racism against non Whites has been a problem for a long, long, long time. The fact is Whites have a problem getting along with others. There is a lot of mental illness in their communities both here and in Europe. The word barbarian comes to mind. Just look at history. (Of course this is not all Whites) The question is, can Whites learn to be truly civilized?

[ars21689]

I don't like Eric Holder and he took a lot of shit from some people but he's exactly right. White people have to be extremely cautious when it comes to criticizing a black person there are people who will take something that has nothing to do with race and twist it into that context. There are certainly still white racists and unfortunately there always will be but I also think there will always be black people who see racism everywhere even though it is undeniably better today than it was.

[TheLonePantheist]

I have no problems with any race, but African Americans have been the most racist group I have ever met.

Everyone! just look up black zionist, The nation of Islam and even here on youtube, look up "Ireland immigration" and you'll see black zionists insult a jewish guy.

[charityGSHS]

Accountability!

This is what is lacking in this country. Blacks need to be accountable for thie own deeds and lives and stop playing the blame game. I am sick of it and so is theis country.

[x3roman]

Dyers right theres a lot of work to be done on both sides, black people need to work through and accept psychosis' which were apart of slavery times and the subsequent "sharecropper" mentality, and white people need to accept and acknowledge that for a VERY long period of time their race was the main perpetrator of an enormous and horrific array of racial injustices against most "non-whites" in this country. African people werent the only ones oppressed, Native Americans, Chinese, Japanese,etc.

[jimmyjoe1975]

Yeah, I don't have a dog in this fight. Those of mixed up could give a shit about all the whining.

[Techstuf]

They didn't call it a melting pot for nothing.....and things are starting to heat up are they not? Now that TPTB are ready to weld the lid on, the bottom will melt out of the whole thing....

watch and see.

God bless 'em

[jeffgatesnc]

blacks want it all... period

whites pay the bill...

blacks incite hate, angry

[mike62mcmanus]

"COWARDS"...Is an ANGRY response I see simmering in him

[driscola]

Show me another country that has voted in a president from an ethnic origin that represents less than 18% of the total population. 43% of the 'white' voters voted for Obama and only 3% of black voters voted for McCain [about 400% less than Bush]. let's talk about racism.

[troyly]

many of u seem to misunderstood my "discrimination is a natural behavior of man" msg...

another example....

John hates NegroxFile cos hes blk. he harrass and kill him in the end. What did he do wrong?

on contrary, Jack hates NegroxFile cos hes blk, but he leaves him alone. What did he do wrong?

i believe in human rights. there is nothing wrong with hate or discrimination. etc. Please be open minded and think about this carefully.

[troyly]

hate, jealousy, racism, stealing, and lying are natural behaviors of man. Please do not associate or lump hate with kill.

hate = natural

hate + kill = wrong

jealousy = natural

jealousy + kill = wrong (OJ)

jumbo jet = good

jumbo jet + kill = wrong (9/11)

do guns, hate, racism, jumbo jets, suv, and jealousy kill ppl? OR ppl use them as an excuse to kill ppl? Be open minded and think about this carefully.

Those ppl who gave away their human rights without knowing it are ignorance.

[cbell8]

Wow... I personally find Pat Buchanan's snide and belittling disposition to be very annoying and counterproductive. Michael Eric Dyson's comments are fairly accurate, but because of who he is and what he represents, he was automatically going to be cast as a "racial fascist". Also, why did Pat Buchanan and other people on here assume that Holder was referring to "White Americans", he did not specify ... "No better place on earth for Africans"--- Seriously?

[mike62mcmanus]

SERIOUSLY-Im white, should I feel the guilt he talks about...Because I dont.....

[roadmilker]

Before I forget.

Fuck you Mr Holder!!

[roadmilker]

I like white people.

[sibisaso]

Lets face facts.Large parts of white america do not like a non white person being president.They inherently believe a white person should be in power no matter how useless he is(i.e George Bush).This however is irrelevant since economics and immigration will change U.S forever.

White people will just have to live with it end of talk end of story.

One day white people may even become a minority population in U.S

[aidrianblue77]

OK.Lets face facts.Majority of non-white Americans do not like a white person as a President.They inherently believe that white person should be removed from power and the power should be given to non -white person, no matter how unqualified (B.H.Obama)that person is.

Whats irrelevant is the prediction of the future .

[sibisaso]

OK.Lets face facts.Qualifications for being President?

Quite frankly I do not believe Obama is doing any worse the any other President before him.Given the fantastic choice offered at the last election i.e John McCain he probably was the best option for America at present.

Please bear in mind that the near collapse of the Banking system,Mindless war in Iraq and the most severe recession this side of 1930's was enacted by white men,Obama deserves a chance to rebuild the U.S.A

[aidrianblue77]

Facts that is.I agree that McCain was a very wrong choice for Republicans. Mitt Romney was far better choice and Ron Paul was the real change.Obama was only first term Senator with no previous record to prove his promises,and with very questionable relationships with left wing radicals like Ayers,black racists like Wright and criminals like Rezko.But huge money and propaganda made Obama a President.

[ezekial38yo]

google;black on white crime stats.we are a nation of black racist.and i dont vote...they are all new world order freaks. :flip:

[chiman1000]

This professor hates white people. Him and Holder would get along great.

[primogenito01]

How do white supremacists relates to Limbaugh? The answer is easy, in looking at the statistics since Rush Limbaugh had raised the level of insults and rants (making clear notations to race), crimes against minorities and against people of different sexual orientation have increased. In fact, if the FBI has interviewed those who were plotting to assassinate Obama, the connection between their supremacist attempts to Rush rants is probably identified by now.

[primogenito01]

Race relations have ultimately a judicial relationship. Separation leads to empathy and empathy leads to crimes. What started as a voluntary separation can become the business of the judiciary. In regards to "cowards," that's the wrong word to call Americans. We don't many of those around.

[ValarioVasquez]

I could see where Buchanon was coming from by saying whites are not responsible for Black crime, education gaps, etc...IF it was true

I believe that the overall state of Black America as it exists today is a direct result of past injustices, and though it is possible to succeed now, there continues to be a system in place that favors whites heavily over Blacks. Blacks can suceed but they have to work 3 times as hard and be 3 times better just to achieve the same status as thier white peers.

[XxsithlordxX]

Let me just add to this by saying that while blacks were fighting for civil rights, Sam Walton was building Wal-Mart, while blacks were getting hosed down and bit by hounds, Henry Ford was inventing the automobile, the point is that whites have a 350 year head start on us and we have to virtually be flawless in everything we do to achieve something. The day when I can suck like the white man and still get somewhere in life, THAT is what I call EQUALITY.

[TribeTPaul]

Pat buchanan is as always.

A moron.

[midnightcyberwriter]

When we think of race instead of humans being of one blood, then we are continuing in our division by reacting to it. We are refusing to take responsibility which in actuality shows we can't let go of racism regardless of who we are, which is an age old way of thinking.

[urthanjell]

It's so easy for all of us to get caught up with race. Black culture is NOT a failed culture because it's still alive and black people are not giving up. There are a lot of positive things about black people that people from different cultures DON'T and CHOOSE not to see. The truth is we ALL need to work out fucked up things in EVERY ONE of our cultures. When people stop placing the blame and feeling like they're in a position to judge others... THAT'S when we get work done!

[thriftpaper]

The author's intro to this video is another example of how stifled any discussions of race are in this country: any time a white person makes anything near a criticism, they are vilified as racists, bigots, etc. We're not cowards, AG, we're sick of being pushed around and bullied by race baiters and Marxist thinkers that hurt Blacks far more than helping them.

[FLEETDARKSTAR]

Holder is a very strange looking man, reminds me of Cyrano de Bergerac. I wonder why he never mention's all the Brave men unlike himself who died figjhting to free the slaves. He act's like all of us are shitty KKK. What would you expect from a black panther:)=muslim.

[SSedmak]

We should tell the truth about what we feel?

As a white man, I feel that I am blamed by some people for wrongs that neither I nor anyone in my family have ever committed.

[boysftv]

"We need to redistribute the pain..."

hahahah wow.

[Nautilus3333]

It's time to "redistribute the pain"!!!

[Nautilus3333]

Wow... I wasn't aware that "white supremacy, social injustice, the owning of slaves, Jim Crow laws and vicious bigotry" was popular among whites... thanks Professor Dyson...

[vivalabag]

It seems the race-baiters Dyson and Holder will stop at nothing until racial tensions are brought to the surface. Most Americans are tired of racism and are willing to look past false barriers of race. Cultural Marxists are winning the battle to divide us amongst lines of gender, race, sexuality, etc.

[OutlawTomFantastic]

Dyson is a complete idiot who needs to look up "personal responsibility" in the dictionary. Needless to say, Buchanan has balls of steel as always.

[Cometgreen]

I'm sorry, we lag behind other countries on race relations? Has Dyson ever been outside the country? I certainly wouldn't consider Europe to be 'ahead' of us.

And "racial fascism"? What does that even mean?

[CurtHowland]

Until I saw this video, I didn't know that Holder styles himself as "black".

I didn't like him, because I loath his policies.

When I question this administration's policies, I'm accused of being racist. Bullshit.

When will people achieve MLK's hope for people to be judged by their character, rather than their genotype?

I honestly think the administration keeps bringing up "race" in order to distract people from looking at the nature of their policies.

[LoveTruth86]

When will people achieve MLK's REAL aspirations instead of repeating the same old tired line! Most people have no idea about what King actually fought for outside of mentioning a single line from a 17 minute long speech.

Curt Howard, what do you really know about King?

[CurtHowland]

Do you mean his support of socialism?

Well, no, I disagree with that part of his policy completely. As does anyone else with even the slightest memory of history or economics.

However, I do support his position on respecting people as individuals and ignoring genotypes entirely.

...don't you?

That was a great line. Even FDR and Lincoln, the murdering tyrants, had some great lines. Shall I ignore them?

Hitler was quite the orator, too. Mao, not so much.

[LoveTruth86]

You cannot claim that MLK's ideology is represented in one line. I am tired of people throwing out that one line because what they do is reduce him to one line and then take it a step further and use the line whenever and wherever they feel like to endorse their own personal agendas.

For example, Conservatives oppose Affirmative action and claim King would based on the same line from his I Have A Dream speech yet he supported AA.

You see the difference.

[CurtHowland]

"You cannot claim that MLK's ideology is represented in one line."

I didn't. I said, "MLK's hope for people to be judged by their character, rather than their genotype?"

I agree with you that this is not the only thing he wanted out of life, so why are you arguing?

[LoveTruth86]

because I am tired of people throwing out that one line instead of speaking about MLK's true ideology.

[CurtHowland]

"instead of speaking about MLK's true ideology."

I don't want to throw out that one shining, glorious sentiment just because the man was a socialist, any more than I want to dismiss everything that Alexander Hamilton said just because he owned slaves.

[CurtHowland]

"...yet he supported AA."

So-called "conservatives" also vote to increase affirmative action once in office, they claim fiscal conservatism merely to get elected.

Just as "liberals" claim to support human rights, then bomb and imprison people they don't like just like "conservatives" do.

"You see the difference."

Yes, which is why I am neither a "liberal" nor "conservative". I'm not a hypocrite.

[jokertim777]

Mr. Dyson makes the point that electing Obama to the POTUS is not a silver bullet that will heal racial divides in this nation. I made that exact point during the campaign on Daily Kos and was vehemently attacked by several posters for taking that position. If I visit Kos now, will I find several diaries ranting against Mr. Dyson for taking this stand now after the election?

[CurtHowland]

Sadly, people keep focusing on Obama's genotype, rather than his policies.

So long as people do that, "race relations" will only get worse, because people who reject arguments about race (like me) are accused of being racist because we try to focus on the policies of the individuals.

[jokertim777]

Well said. We are supposed to be color blind to race, but at the same time compensate for disadvantages which come from policies that happened before we were born and don't agree with? I've never met anyone who says that slavery, forced segregation, and Jim Crow laws are anything but abhorrent. What is this refusal to acknowledge these past wrongs he speaks of? Am I to be punished for something done by others?

[CurtHowland]

"Am I to be punished for something done by others?"

I think that's exactly what they're going to demand. A tax on non-black-ness.

Since every area of people on earth has practiced slavery at some point or another, everyone is descendant of slaves.

so shall we move on?

[antiwar100]

Yeah..yeah...yeah...yeah.....W­hile politicians are trying to get "us" Americans to have an "open" dialogue about race, Americans will continue to treat people as they should be treated...by the content of their character.

[cutekhanda]

"we love america, that's why we have a black president."

pat buchanon running mate was a black women. this black comes across as the most racist, which is not surprisiing cause balck people are the most racist

[cutekhanda]

"share the burden, share the pain."

No thanks. I'm not racist, but black culture is fucked up and I as a Asian American want nothing to do with it. Don't force me to associate with a failed culture.

[CurtHowland]

"Don't force me to associate with a failed culture."

Too late.

Didn't you know that "Asian-americans" aren't a minority any more, because they have been "integrated" fully?

Because, in my opinion, orientals didn't constantly try to tell everyone else that they were owed special treatment for being oriental. "My great grand parents were treated like vermin building railroads, I deserve a scholarship!"

[urthanjell]

Failure is when you give up... I don't see black people giving up.

[troyly]

if B ppl think they re so smart... look at Africa.

How smart are whites? look at europe.

How smart are azns? look at japan.

Stop forcing ppl to like u. Stop taking their Liberty away.

U have ur freedom long time ago. Stop whining.

"I am human"

[jwriter04]

africa is more richer than every other continent put together, I would suggest you educate your self on african's resources. Also everything about EUROPE is STOLEN from Africa, I would strongly suggest you look MORE into research

[milan20]

good one, i suggest research? based on what? all resources in africa owned by america or europe. i didnt know ancient greece was based on africa?

[jwriter04]

research based on philosophy, check it out then come back. I makes no sense to respond if you HAVENT done the RESEARCH

[milan20]

i did you idiot, i live in europe, and ill tell you what, not one thing i see is from africa, dip shit. im sure all the fine cuisine is african thats why shit stew is served in kenya and also the autobahn is based off of the dirt roads in congo and airbus is stolen from the design of the 1 in 2 falls out of the sky african plane, russia's oil must have come from africa too? africas resources may be more valuable, but they are too stupid to make use of any of it cant blame europe for that

[LoveTruth86]

Have you been to Africa or do you sit around and watch it on television?

Are you aware of the history of the continent?

[rottten33]

Pretend time is over ...Integration doesnt work and never will work. The south was right all along..thanks for the experiment in failure "Supreme Court"..

Though you drive Nature out with a pitchfork, she will ever find her way back.

[jwriter04]

oooooooooo shut up

[noonpartisan]

there's a lot of crypto-racism on youtube. they hide their racism behind NWO talk. they use the economic crisis as a way to raise their old agenda.

[jwriter04]

u got that right noon
