Since Y'all are so concerned about Race...

Found this yesterday...

According to Professor Griff, this lady's speeches were the inspiration for the concept of Public Enemy's FEAR OF A BLACK PLANET album... which is still among my all-time favorite albums even when I was a teenager.

Interesting stuff:



These are the vids I listened to:






Some follow-ups I might go through:

Thanks for posting, hopefully I find time to go thru all of this, from looking at her wiki I can already tell this will be fun as she was an afro-centrist who believes in melanin theory lmao

It was pretty entertaining to see last week when Sargon found out about this kind of thing. See the last 20 mins for melanin lulz:

"Professor" Griff and Frances Cress Welsing are minstrels.

LOL @ black "intellectuals"

Good calls by Luigi

She indeed does talk a lot about melanin in the lecture... though I never pondered that people may take this idea to any sort of special extremes

In Grade 7 I was moved to a logging town in buttfuck nowhere among racist alcoholic white people and even more racist alcoholic native people lol - As a result, I rebelled by listening to a lot of RAP MUSIC in my early teens :D

Seriously; Grade 8 and 9? I loved that shit. Had a subscription to Columbia House and would order all the rap cassette tapes I could find. Public Enemy was high on that list, I had all their albums and listened to them tons.

I tended to gravitate more to the political groups, like PE and KRS ONE etc... and thus I got a pretty heavy introduction to the ideas of american black history and activism. Stories and King and X, Marcus Garvey etc still fascinate me.

I have a lot of respect for black activists in the USA, and can frankly understand how any of them might get carried away into different ideologies, theories etc. If I were there at that time with black skin I may well have become somewhat of an extremist myself

Who is Sargon?

Remember GamerGate? When it first started there was a guy called InternetAristocrat who was at the helm leading the rebellion, but when it grew to be huge he couldnt handle it anymore and deleted his youtube account, though much of his work is archived. From There Sargon, inspired by IA's work began his own channel in the same style but did it even better and quickly became a de facto leader of the movement. When GG accomplished all its goals he continued his channel by taking the intellectual groundwork established by his videos and forming it into a philosophy that has become the heart of the new internet based counter culture movement, one that tries to reclaim the political left for classical liberals instead of the radical progressivists.



He also has a weekly series called "This Week in Stupid" where he recounts stupid events that happens that week(usually having to do with politicals) and critiques them.
