Brilliant distillations and ruminations on the many virtues of socialism. Kwame was a treasure, in the great trove of the black power movement. So inspiring, uplifting and challenging.
Wrong. The laws of nature ALWAYS existed, having been created by God who ALSO always existed. Governing systems like Communism, Socialism, Democratic/Republicanism, Plutocracy or Monarchies, are ALL indeed inventions of men. Think. The law of gravity existed BEFORE man existed. Not so with Communism, Socialism, etc.
same great man he changed his name to honour both nkurumah and ahmed sekou toure who he lived with for the other part of his life before they transitioned
So true! I was fortunate enough to see him speak and to meet him briefly when he came to Howard University back in the mid-nineties. The man was a force of nature.
Stokely Carmichael,was a true Pan African/ Revolutionary/ Scholar"extremely dedicated, and committed to the cause& revolution of his people gaining the wisdom, and knowledge 4 our people 2 be free!# May he RIP"# Thank U KING"🙏🌹❤️🖤💚🌋🕊️👁️💯👏#Kwame is a Legend!!!👁️👍💪🌄💖🌍💯🕊️
that was the problem he had with bp according to him he wanted to make everyone read at least 5 pages of a book everyday but they refused the idea.thanks to him I just started reading books.
The one thing that the African people has done leadership encourage People to turn The God of Bible study, But Now we needs Bible Reading Classes as well Bible Study, we need The Bible to Speak to the Peoples community health, unless we realize we cannot do this on our own so we're in a war a spiritual warfare and we desperately need Jesus to deliver us, we will need shut-in fasting and Prayer
I feel he could really pull everyone together. He uses like a neutral tactic to relate to everyone while also getting his point across. He doesnt push any certain agenda except the revolution & betterment for black ppl. Otherwise hes like you believe in this or that thats fine we’re not here to convert each other because regardless the plight of the black ppl is still throughout all religions so we can still work together no matter what you believe in
Can someone explain to me the first guy's second question? Was he asking about the assimilation of European systems within Africa? I just don't get it lol
The guy was basically asking the necessity of a socialist construct in an African context. He was mentioning that the way Communism/Socialism was defined was in a EuroAsian context (the way it is practiced in Russia and China) may not make sense in Africa, which is why he used political and cultural "assimilation" as an example. The man's fear was that without Africans crafting their own definition and their own approach to Communism/Socialism, they would basically be living by someone else's standards, just as they had under colonialism. Ture answered him by saying that Communism/Socialism, being a universal truth, can easily be adapted to anyone's culture. The motif may be different, but the principles of putting the people first should always be the same, no matter where in the world it is practiced.
The principles are. The method of arriving there isn't. The manifestation of it or how it looks may not be. A cooperative system is more suitable for Africa rather than the government holding all the means of production on behalf of the people. I think that's what he said, and certainly that's what others have said. This is the new way of thinking. Very suited to Africa, I believe.
If a society has integrity and sound morals, a representative republic is the best form of government. When integrity falls, the system falls. Just look at our present government. Partisanship has taken over, and integrity is an afterthought.
@@petduroSocialism has been a complete desastre in every country it has been tried, in fact, it has always been the most powerful capitalists who financed, and used socialism to their advantage. Anthony Sutton proved this with his book Wallstreet and the Bolshevik Revolution; Fidel Castro was an actor and CIA agent, Mao was financed by the Rockerfellers, Rothchild, Jesuits, etc., etc,. American imperialism works hand and hand with the elite in China, and the elite in Russia. The very liberation he was speaking about in his public lecture would never be publically spoken about by anyone who actually wanted to change anything.
