believe that Plato was quoting Socrates about the examined life. I do wonder how the esteemed Dr. West views the pro-totalitarian philospher, Plato. Perhaps a loaded question, but no less accurate of Plato, as fundamentally anti-democratic.
this video only has 13,000 views but theres a video labeled nro nazi skinhead and it had a million hits that should tell you bout people instead of gaining knowledge they rathey see hate and stupidity
@Abovetheclouds359 i thought about that too, is strange and difficult to interpret, but a fact that can tell us a lot about nowadays, what? i don't know
I realize it's no "one" individuals responsibility to "raise" the consiousness of others, but I can't help but hope for an unparallel change to occur by me succeeding Charles Barron as Councilman. ENY is stagnant and shamefully so.
So many gems meyn...... wow, he speaks more fluently every time I listen... endless wisdom, gotta a reading list from his very words. amazing absolutely #Champ
"You see." is a practiced, purposeful interjection , a spoken "exclamation point," akin to the " exclamaiton mark" in writing. It accomplishes three things when properly applied. First, it restores the listener's focus, a moment for thought collection, second, it infuses the message with an additional layer of urgency and importance, and third, serves to construct a subliminal bond of understanding between speaker and listener upon which the speaker can build to create a consensus. You see?
Cornell West is not a philosopher he is thinker in the Heideggerian sense. His religious thinking gives us a greater sense of what Christology is. What it means to be part of a Church. Truly inspiring!
how did you not crash with all the mind blowing thought that was going on in that little mini van? So much to think to think about...thanks for posting these.

I would like this guy a lot more if he didn't say "you see" so much. I guess it's an intellectual tick of sorts. Oh well, still some great thinking.
