I saw Dr West at Winston Salem State University tonight. I was inspired by him to spend part of my blessing in this life helping those less fortunate than me. He taught me..there is no cure, but there is progress.

Cornel West evokes the black brillance of the past (think of Dubois), the present (himself, Dyson, Angelou and others), and the future (me and the others like the one who posted this video and the others who've left insightful comments)..... Peace and Love to you all!!!

I wonder if cornel and tavis were given a special invitation to the oresidential innaguration, and they were on the world stage, if their distructive behaviour would have been less poisonous? I do agree with professor Melissa Harris on the personal attack and its lack of productivity. what has cornel done for the people he is so-called concerned about. Cornel and Tavis want attention and they are showing their jealousy. Their behaviour is shameful I will not join in with others to hurt.

Cornel West is hated by Lawrence Summers fans, ADL crowd, zionists, neo-cons, etc. So, plenty of ignorant folks who will put him down. Hence, not surprised to see hate-filled comments here

I wish peple stop disin him he is the greatest mondern & postmondern thinker that GOD made. I have several of his books one called Race Maters another The Cornel West Reader & I have his CD CORNEL WEST & BMWMB Never Forget: A Journey of Revelations. He's is a person that will make you wake the H**l up & take a stand up for human rites, human freedom & human dignity. His words is filed with knowlege of the heart, wisdom of the soul & intellect of the mind. Peple can learn alot from him

If you are inclined to suspect I am a racist, go to a video called The Real Eve, part one. Click on 'see all comments', and scroll down to an exchange I had several months ago with a white supremacist who called himself 'hahawhat'. You will see that I was far more brutal with him than I have been with you.

Where did I suggest I "know it all"? Was there EVER a person of exceptional intelligence ANYWHERE who was not frequently accused of thinking he "knew it all"? You made assertion, and I rebutted it, nor was anything approaching omniscience required to do so. My "jibberish" is in fact unimpeachably lucid English prose. If you find it abstruse, perhaps it is you who ought to read more. I again call your bluff; how does anything I have said belie a lack of research? -be prepared to say why.

I don't see how he could possibly be said to *challenge* his audience. This is laughable. West is little more than a grocery list of preacher man platitudes.

B-II ...a liability, you would do well to cultivate a similar misfortune, were it not beyond grasp of your intelligence. My application of "pseudo-intellectual" is semantically unassailable even if my assessment of West is entirely mistaken. You lose.
