    Wow--Farrakhan blew my mind...His observation on responsibility is as existential as Sartre. Farrakhan is not a white hater racist--just listen to his words.

    I'm noticing Michael Eric Dyson is standing and applauding Louis Farrakhan for saying the same thing Bill Cosby was basically saying.

    @bluenotejazz haha!! i gave that a thought in the beginning when i saw two of them behind Eric Dyson..lol..No need to be afraid...none of them are violent people. They arej ust wise, educated, civilized, and conscious concerning the struggle and the degrading condition of African Americans in America. Farakhan always bring the fire.

    @QWERTY34990 It wasn't about white and black people in civil courts. He was making an analogy of "responsibility" eventhough you're not officially "guilty" of the crime.

    Not really and he is referring to the slavery within America, that this present day black people derive from. How is it narcissistic paranoia when it is a sociological and economical fact that people and a system can be trained or molded into a "form" over years and that it will remain in that condition unless change. That is a fact, this also applies to customs, sexual abuse, self hate, depression etc. Perhaps it seems that way because you have not further looked into from your normal POV

    its important to listen and talk less. Even bad advice has somthing good in the message.

    They need to put the word FORGIVENESS on this table. But, I doubt it would do anymore good than LOVE has. God, have mercy on them. They know not that their hate has a domino effect.

    Something about Farrakhan doesn't sit right with me ,maybe it's honesty and intellect that l have been taught is hatred when coming from a black man and lm black.

    Is Luis American, because, I'm sorry, he sure doesn't sound like it most of the time. I'm for the lifting of my culture, but not at the cost of degrading other races to do it either. And I still say, for all his talk (and he's an amazing speech giver, I'll give him that), what social victories has Farrakhan ever actually achieved? How has he actually helped the black community short of selling something for himself? Smilely clearly loves him for ratings but he's just a guy in a suit with words
