Dr. Cornel West Talks Presidential Run, Truth & Justice, Reparations, Student Loans, DEI +More 

May we appreciate our elders while they are here. Thank you Elder West.

We need to get them on the main stage for the debate. Literally like where’s the petition

People aren’t ready for this conversation. People are stuck in the box of these two parties.😏

Dr. West is on my Mount Rushmore of leaders. Ome of the most important men in America today and certainly in Black America today.

Dr Cornel West is the embodiment of intelligence and intellect. He is ALWAYS consistent in his ideologies and beliefs.

@Breakfast Club can you please put 2024 election hashtag and create video snippets of this? It would really help grass roots black organizations spread this positive message around. Thank you for the interview!

This was love at its highest and excellence. Thank you Breakfast Club for hosting these two magnificent visionaries. We got to support our own and make a statement once and for all. It’s a new day in America. Ricardo’s Authenticity Rating for this podcast is 10 out of 10. We are now a people that means business and we stand for justice and integrity uncompromising in doing so. Good job guys.

I just found a reason to vote.

Both of them together you gave em 30 minutes. I don’t wanna see another hour long RFK interview.

I would love to sit in a room with Cornell West, Michael Eric Dyson, Nina Turner, Angela Rye & Neil Degrasee Tyson just talking about everything from Politics, The Black Experience, Music & Space... every time I hear one of them speak is so much knowledge, so much confidence and them being exactly themselves. Black Brilliance.

This type of integrity, morality and spirituality is exactly what the world needs!!

Da wise can play dumb but the foolish can never be wise.

Good people doing the work! Nothing but respect.

This man really just running on straight blackness alone. I don't know man...but I fux with it✊🏿

I love Dr. West. He is so sweet and compassionate at all times. And it is cool we have similar tastes in music, too!

Thank you for bringing Dr West back again. It is nice meeting his VP choice. He would be the best President this country ever had if he is elected. ❤️

Lets Go!!! Dr Cornel West one my favorite people to listen to

Morning! WAKE THAT MIND UP! Thanks for sharing this conversation with Dr. Cornel West, I understand and appreciate his views along with his running mate. At the end of the day, we must vote for the party that has shown and is speaking in favor of policies that will help Black and Brown people.

As Latino man I’m always inspired and enjoy listen to this man! Wish us as brown people we had someone like this!💪

Dr. West is indeed a voice in the wilderness. A badly needed voice. Blessings to him and his running mate.

The same people attacking Dr. West also deny that Israel is committing genocide. West-Abdullah 2024

It's not necessarily about winning, it's about keeping our voice heard fighting for community economic improvement and legislation bigotry.

I remember when the good brother, Dr Cornell West,first announced that he would be running for office on this show. #WhereHaveYouBeen???

I saw Dr. Cornell West at Pomona College with Myrlie Evers in 2018. Truly impressed. Amen.

Am i the only one that couldnt wait to watch this to see how well Affion Crockett impersonation of Dr. West was lol

Asking him if he's being blackballed while giving him a 30-minute interview is wild.

This was very impressive 👏🏾

Exactly Style & Soul we got that ❤️🖤💚

It's always an amazing experience and interview when Dr west stops by and graces us with his knowledge and passion for what's right and what's black 🎉🙌🙏💯

14:39 I'm glad somebody finally being real about Biden 💯

I love this interview was fire 🔥 love this

I love hearing the TRUTH . ALL POWER TO WE THE PEOPLE .❤

2nd cornel west interview where y’all forgot to put the “election 2024” tag on the thumbnail that you gave Nicky and RFK

These are the candidates our community should get behind.

I love Dr. Cornel West! He’s a great philosopher! 👨‍🏫

Bringing back this guy for this interview is authentic!! Keep up the great work

I'd be so proud to say Dr. West is the President of the United States. Gotta build up the campaign! #thatsmypresident #west2024 #cornellwest2024 #nomore2partysystem

This is my candidate. Period.

Dr. Cornel West is the best of the best! He is the brightest light in these bleak times. His encouragement & dedication will get us through. He has my support.

I adore Dr Cornel West - thank you BC for having him on. Dr West is one of the few left who really deeply cares about humanity. He has such integrity and so much humility. A scholar and a truth seeker, a poet, a lover of peace with the most amazing knowledge and taste in music. I love him and he truly is a gift to us all💜

Great man but I need to hear policy sir. This is for presidency not a college debate .

Powerful duo. Make sure you vote correctly 👍🏿😎👍🏿

I love hearing this man speak!!!..It’s an Honor!❤️💪🏽💯

When 2 black people constantly mentioning Gaza but no mention of DR Congo nor South Sudan. 🤦🏾

I would vote for you. I pray it's not to late.

That handshake 🫱🏾‍🫲🏽 at the end was smooth AF! 🖤

Bro. Cornel Got My Vote

Definitely need him in the white house not these other fools

Just peeped the Webbie painting on the wall! 🙌🏾😂😂

Why do these people never run for state office? They just jump to president before we see what they can do.

Dr. WEST is BEST!!!

Got my vote!!

Listening to this at work has me geeked! I truly wish that this team can get it done. My concer is that I have not heard a peep about the campaign on the ground here in AZ

Love this

I love Dr West - Unfortunately people like him are never allowed to run the establishment - but he has my vote!

Go, Dr. Cornell West!! 👏🏾👏🏾

This man got wisdom! Very impressive🙏🏽

Even if he wins, Congress will not work with him at all. But still, keep your head up Doc!

Thank you for bringing him on!

I enjoyed this interview. I pray that as I age, I'm as wise and worthy to spread knowledge with the same passion as my ancestors.

I hate that he’s the black man that them folks will never let get close to the White House because he really stands up for black people!🤔

Dr. West admire your legacy, Americans rejected you before for the Presidential Run and will do the same in 2024.

I agree with Charla... haves vs have-nots is inevitable but it won't be the only factions against each other

This is such an important conversation. I respect Dr. West and Dr. Molina for what they are accomplishing. They want votes but winning is not the necessary goal. Politics has become a money ball event which is great to cease power but not very efficient to choose the best candidate. What they are demonstrating is what a true candidate should be like. Lies tend to get votes But what happens after? a platform should inform and by example they are showing us what a voter should look for, asking and request for the common good. I wish it were the time we could vote for such deep and In depth candidates in the final, for with public support they could change the state of this nation. Well, if it is not to be, let it be that what these two great minds have set us on a path of enlightened government knowledge. This knowledge to be used on the local level that the people can make change for humans all and not corporations and dark money.

I wish I could vote but i'ma immigrant green card permanent resident. But I will definitely get behind you guys

Well, America, you have the 3rd option, and they are def best if you want things to change fundamentally.

i agree with what they've said. I think they need to reach the educated working class with strategy, policies and numbers. They already have MY vote.

I will vote for CW❣️

You got my vote professor West Ms. melina

I love Dr. West but I wanted to hear specific policies details and how you will get them passed a dysfunctional congress. Sounds like they are selling a dream but faith w/o works…

I can't watch this without thinking about the Affion Crockett episode 😂

Good conversation

Wisdom

We need Dr Umar on next!

There's no fucking way they let this man on the debate stage with the other 2

Finally someone making me have hope. I wasn’t planning on voting maybe I will now

Melina what happened to that $90,000,000 that Black Lives Matter took?

Given his running mate choice, it's obvious Cornel West, like the other candidates, isn't serious about running for POTUS. West is going to drop out soon and ask his supporters to get behind Jim Crow Joe.

Elder West is gold....we honor him always

Brother West for POTUS❤

I told Dr. Cornel West to do this interview and the rest is history. -- TK Kirkland

The fact that the breakfast club didn't expand on their reparations initiative and instead, pivoted to Democrat policies, is a travesty.

Love this brother! Always keeping it real!!!

As much as I love Dr. West he will not be winning the presidency. Unfortunately for us the two popular parties are what is in control of this country.Dr. West is only polling at 1% of the vote. If we do away with the party system then people like Dr. West would be able to win these elections. I feel its more important to determine what kind of country we need to have than to voting for only one issue. The democracy is what is important. We only have 2 choices and we need to make our voices heard.

West'24

Dr.West can continue to educate our youth and all youth .

Dr. West is one of those rare people who can help you see Black History, see the structures of systemic oppression in current society, and still help you imagine a future all in one sentence. The way he speaks in this way that bends time and shows the thread of justice throughout is extraordinary.

Some white guy in a suit tells him something and he takes it for gold. Can’t make this shit up. Could’ve just said a guy.

it would really be great if these types of third party candidates took the time to explain how they're going to convince congress, people who pass the actual legislation needed, to get the work they want done. modern leftists have been squashed on a federal level, much better with localized issues or case by case basis. i don't understand this presidency run as anything other than a spoiler candidate in the face a white christian nationalist running.

Beautiful 😊- black folk should participate

I particularly like how Malena talks about how DEI is really just a front as she says "Some you can come in" but what about everyone else it's a lie that makes the people feel good about themselves and that is a conversation that has been had more than once people need to wake up to this and like the doctor here sees the truth but I understand that's not always easy so good we have people around like Dr. Cornel and ms.Abdullah

“Organized Greed” and “Institutionalized Hatred” ❤ Dr. West for that ✊🏾👊🏾

Black intelligence week. I am here for it Dr. Dyson now Dr. West. :)

Dr. West picked the perfect pick for VP let's get behind these two to make America what it should be.

I’ve been hearing the same narrative about America and black ppl for over 20 years.

I know his nephew cornel west 😂

It's about time!!! Yall been making us feel like we had no other choice than Biden and Trump and it was pissing me off!!!!! Thank you for finally giving him and his campaign some light. Please black people stand up and vote for this man. If you've never voted before please vote this year for Dr. Cornell West.

i am voting for DR.C. WEST ...................YESSSSSSSS.................later for the other 2

They have my vote 🗳

My Vote is Dr. West…✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
