  • What Bauman is there that's good on youtube? I can't find much.. especially on modernity / consumerism. And I'm looking for English speaking since I'm ignorant to other language!

    I've watched/listened to your vids a few times. Thanks! They've been helpful.

  • not too much bauman on youtube. type his name or "liquid modernity" and see what you get. and keep spreading the word about one of the foremost thinkers of our time.

  • ok.. im ready and watching.

  • this is exciting. treat it like a class. ask me any questions to clarify your presentation video. google "zygmunt bauman" to fill in the gaps. i'm looking forward to this.

  • I started writing a book. No joke--trying to fill those pages with your thoughts. Then there's the machine you mentioned

  • can't be my thoughts, must be... must always be your thoughts.

see all

  • That's what I mean

  • i think that "lost" happens to us all. there should be universal innocence in youth, having things provided for you. the world has beneficent possibilities 'cause you get a bit of what you want. then adolescence comes and the great divide takes place in too many. thought carries us thru that phase. got to be able to bring that innocence thru and shape it, mold it, ready it for the unforgiving adult world. you can imagine how and why so many get lost in the process.

  • enjoy the book. bauman can be a little dense and he doesn't specifically talk about black folk's struggle, but you can make the leap. the future is about everyone w/o money and access getting oppressed and forgotten. there are subtle ways this will begin to happen. there's a sure way to combat the process: know what is going on and counter it. learn. learn. learn.

  • I had to look up liquid modernity and ended up buying the book.
