The president of the united states was a black man and the black community is still not considered to be at the dinner table? Smh what do you want before you start acknowledging yourself black community? A full black senate?
Ilias Houssni yes. A full black senate would be nice. Ooooh And A full black Supreme Court Oh and When we are paid 50% more on average than any other demographic,...When we’re in charge of almost ALL Fortune 500 companies. When the next 43 presidents in a row are Black. And it’s considered normal, then we’d be off to a good start
Christy Clark Ive always said it as "If you aint at the Table. Then you my friend. Are the MEAL!" And thats what we are. The Meal. And its unfortunate that too many in the White Community. Dont realze. that theyre on the Menu TOO. And that their Whiteness will not save them either.
Dyson my boy man..my first class in my college was taught by this man on the sociology of Kendrick Lamar. sat with him in his office day before election day '16 talking about the relationship between thought and feeling in music. He dapped me up every time he saw me after that, asking how the music was going. Man has only showed me love. I appreciate him deeply for that and tryna start taking the lessons i learned from him and others into my own music and message. great interview
mans a racist too "mean mad white man" so yall should both be real proud of yourselves.. no more kid gloves for sjws and rjws, yall get the same treatment yall give out for people yall label as racist and the negative stigma you attach to anyone who associates with people yall deem racist.
Sophisticated Swanson now go watch him get schooled by another educated black man in larry elder. This black man is part of the problem thats holding blacks back and is feeding off of it. He aint got shid on Elder
An educated black man is a problem? The cops killing us for no reason is the problem. Us killing us and aborting us is the problem. More black and brown kids are being aborted than are killed by police or on the streets.
If he is supposed to be a model for an educated black man, that would be a problem. That implies that enough of the population thinks his shallow crap is anything more than intellectual waste. He's never going to be more than a soap box, relying on someone to cling onto his ideas to make a buck. Better to trust someone who has the capacity to produce something concrete, a man able to bring to reality the fruits of his intellect.
It's funny that Angela and Envy have degrees but ctha god is the one with the knowledge and is driving the conversation. They should demand a refund on that shit.
Alexis Massey he doesn't "amuse" me, and brilliant is relative. i've heard him speak on enough topics intelligently to consider that word fitting. if you don't agree, cool.
I Could Hear Michael Eric Dyson Speak For Hours And Feel Very Powerful !!! I 💙 Him A lot Always Been A Fan Since I Saw Him On The News Years Ago !!!! Speaking Up For POC ✊🏽🤗😘
Okay, I'm watching this interview again and I mean, it's wonderful to see a room filled with black men and women (go angela!) Speaking intelligently and beautifully about hip hop, race, and much more. I felt inspired just by the conversations you guys were having!
It's funny how every time, and I mean every time you can go look, there's an intellectual black guest (be it Dyson, Maxine Waters, Angela Rye, Farrakhan, etc.) on the show the comment section is chock full of people trying to discredit them. Stay woke my friends ✊
Interesting. Did you realize that the commenters are subscribers to breakfast club? Someone comes on a show they watch regularly and display a bunch of intellectual disingenuous jargon that seeks to focus black anger and direct it for their own money and influence. People dont like that. Freedom of speech is not freedom from criticism.
So you're insinuating that every single black intellectual that comes to TBC is disingenuous and self-serving? And you know that for a fact? You must be well connected. It's also funny how no one other type of guest receives that same criticism, it's almost as if people were able to make anonymous accounts online with the express intent of discrediting intellectual black people and any positive message they may or may not have, a thing that has been done in America since it's inception. Crazy.
I never said they were above criticism, but a criticism of a person doesn't discredit everything they've ever said or done or are saying and doing. It also doesn't mean that everything they say is wrong, but for some reason people think it does for Black intellectuals that speak on race issues in America.
Young King Kush That happens to literally everyone political the reason people are focusing so much on him right now is because of his bullshit debating with Jordan Peterson
The best part are the history lessons. Politics is meaningless without historical context. Knowing history allows you to analyze events critically and to form your own conclusions rather than just accepting what people tell you. I think a lot of younger conservatives need to watch old debates and discussions from the 50s and 60s and realize white conservatives have been using the same rhetoric to describe black activists for the last 60 years. You might conclude that they were right back then and they are right now, but at least you will have reckoned with history and hopefully have a better understanding of the arguments you're using.
Love love love Dr. Michael Eric Dyson! I was soooo happy to see a new interview with him. He hits us with truth, great personality, teacher, and speaker!
I understand where he’s coming from with college. But he’s talking about it as though it is easily accessible and affordable. There are still many ways to get valid knowledge without ever having gone to college. College is not the only way you get information and even more important colleges don’t expose you to black history unless your studying that or at an hbcu for the most part
Pedro Justice there’s nothing wrong with any college but community college isn’t free everywhere. Fafsa doesn’t assist most middle class Americans. And some you would have to still transfer to a four year university. So it’s still about the money and resources. It’s scholarships but we all know that only a few can get those. And to take out a loan for college is not as easy as it has been. If you have the resources go for it. The experience is great but that’s not the only way to get structured information
I see what your saying. I think what he is saying is that until you attend college you don’t know how to be productive in learning alone, researching alone or finding like minded people to discuss information. I think college gives you tools to use. So, like if you do teach yourself black history you will know how to research and study in an affective way . Ya know
@Animated Universe of Mel I wouldn't take any advice from an alien that spews epithets with no context. Thomas Sowell? Unless you want to learn how to assimilate 101 I'd recommend Dr. John Henrik Clarke or better yet... brother Michael Eric Dyson! FOH with that black republican talk... back to space you go!
I love this man simply for his intelligence and how he keeps life so real! Thank you for being yourself. Thank you for standing up for our people and educating us about ourselves. Thank you for stressing how important it is to educate ourselves. The you for challenging us to use our minds.
I've been following Michael Eric Dyson for years. He is brilliant, intelligent, outspoken, well spoken, and this man is a hero for all black men and an amazing black man!!! 👊
This is why I love the Breakfast Club; they are not afraid to have real, right, and raw guests who can effectively articulate the Black experience and social agenda. From ignorance to intellectual, the Breakfast Club has it all...
You have to have a major the job market wants. Engineering (Computer, mechanical, electrical), math and science get the jobs. Liberal arts gets you nothing. Not always but more often than not.
I've never heard an engineering grad having trouble. Is your former major one of the three I listed? Civil/environmental engineering tends to be hard to get a job in.
It’s electrical engineering, a year without work. I recently got into masters degree program to do something otherwise I would give the impression that I been inactive and employers don’t want me. It is what it is though, i gotta keep my head high, it will come.
Keep your head high, I've found that some markets are more conducive certain disciplines than others. I just looked and I found 100's of jobs. Maybe where you live isn't the engineering spot as compared to other places. Try this site. www.indeed.com/q-Entry-Level-Electrical-Engineer-jobs.html Before I got my job, I applied for years while working as a secretary (receptionist but eh). Apply for anything and everything try to break a door open. If you do your master's before you get into your field, you may be placed into that 'overqualified' category so tread lightly on the masters. Good luck young sir.
Why are all you Haters in this room? Just because you don't agree or like Dr. Dyson doesn't mean that he is wrong! His platform is race and social justice!
No he didn't actually. Why do you white people lie and act as if people don't have eyes and ears? He made Peterson look bow his head, in shame, like a child after calling him an angry mean white man, lol
I can't believe this interview just got 81K views, If it was some gossip or black people beefing with each other or this one sleeping with this one. We would've already been at MILLION VIEWS.
I have yet to miss any of his breakfast club interviews, I learn a lot from hearing his words, I took a social media break and it was the best decision I made in a long time
A few months ago I read Michael Eric Dyson's book on Malcolm X "Making Malcolm" and was very disappointed, to say the least, at how he wrote about & how critical he was at times of Malcolm. Made me look at MED very differently.
chade right but if you look at education on a larger scale most black people are ignorant because they did not go to college regardless if it cost money college is not just an institution for learning you build communication skills and other skills needed to move around in “this” America you definitely need a combination of self teaching and learning from other people
For some reason the same people will tell you pharmaceuticals are needlessly expensive and need to be reduced in price but NEVER want to call out the universities for having outrageous overhead and bloated spending in distributing knowledge in the digital age.
Daniel Love exactly why you have to distinguish between fact and fiction, learn your own body, take care or yourself you don’t have to go to college to know whats good and bad for you
At 11:17 time, not even finished watching. I can honestly say this is the BEST interview on BCP105.1, so far!!!! Educated interview for the CULTURE. 1 Luv
Family, let's; "admit to commit" -- that there's a layer of sublime consciousness that our brother Michael Eric Dyson hits on that is the real essence of our intellectual melanin spirit.
Mactownization Your the hater in crowd at Eric Dyson event for what reason.. Go watch and support Peterson. Peterson is not that great of speaker let alone teacher/debater
Jojo Saylor then why did those in attendance who were polled as "willing to change their veiws" do so in favor of Peterson? Let me guess, "muh oppression and the white man".
Paynus Vajonas The day you'll learn to think you'll learn that majority is not always right. Although I even doubt your statistics, given that I haven't seen them myself.
Blew Just Google search the Munk debate with their names and it will take you right to their website with the polls and statistics. I never claimed the majority was always right. In fact, I'd argue that the majority can be dead wrong (segregation laws, slavery, the drug war). All I'm saying is that, according to the audience, Jordan Peterson and Stephen Fry presented a better argument. And the debate wasn't even about race it was SUPPOSED to be about political correctness which covers all racial backgrounds, creeds and orientations. Dyson, who is arguably at this point racist, used it as an opportunity to race bait furthering his effort to didvide us racially. PLEASE don't buy into that. As a white man, I truly do recognize injustice in this nation. I want to do what I can to help fix it. It hurts me to think people of color see me as inherently racist. I was raised right. I want to help but I don't believe Dyson's ideology is the way we mend the racial tension in this country.
I agree with him on a lot of his points. However, you don’t have to go to college to be educated. You don’t have to go to college and be forced to read and research to LOVE READING AND RESEARCH. Growing up in poverty you already have the skills of critical thinking you just have to read and study to understand how to use it but you definitely don’t have to go to any college to learn these skills especially if you’re a young black person most of us are coming from families where college isn’t any option not because of lack of money but lack of time and earning to debt ratio! I love speaking to scholars but one thing some of them forget is the ability to evolve and transform. Water can be manifested in 3 different states of existence doesn’t mean it’s still not water.
Tasharee Ross perfectly said...this is a new generation.... we don't need schooling to be successful or be considered educated it's quite outdated...but the old generation doesn't understand that times have changed they keep telling us to go to school not knowing the high amount of debt will acquire and not knowing that a lot of times we won't be able to do anything with those degrees...because the old way seems to be a trap
I respect your stance on college, nevertheless I disagree. College is very important for obtaining the correct, detailed format by which to relay, address, and engage the various institutions that hold the structural powers within our societies. As a sociologist major, I totally understand Mr. Dyson' s sentiments. Just food for thought. If you disagree I'd be happy to substantiate my points with factual and imperical data, I simply ask that u do the same...
Tasharee Ross you don't have to go to college like you don't have to go to church or Bible study...just consider only reading the Bible versus studying the Bible with theologians within a congregation...the many perspectives and ideas can be discussed and studied versus reading a book and reflecting about it on your own.
True, but community college is just as good as an expensive IVY league school. The Average cost is about $3,000 a year. If you're young and motivated you can pull 3G's a year easily. I know dudes from around my way that spend that money on their Jordan collection when they could be investing in a career instead. You just need to know how to play the game.
Because it was racist, if the same happened to a black person at that debate it would have been outrageous. Peterson has been called out on his temper many times and he hasn't ever gotten mad about it because that was not the thing he got mad about. The thing he got mad about was Dyson trying to put him in a category based on race, hence why Peterson responded with "you don't know a single thing about me". It was racist, bigotted and hypocritical, not to mention a personal attack in a proffesional debate. I mean there was so much wrong with that statement, the fact that you are still supporting him tells me you are not the brightest.
King Tee Firstly, why on earth do you go straight to that assumtion? Secondly, this Dyson fella makes no sense, he speaks volumes of nonsense all based on race. He only thinks of people ad their colour, he doesn't think of people of individuals. He's good at riling people up, that's IT.
No problem with a black man or woman being able to converse intelligently: there is a huge difference between throwing a vocabulary book at people and intelligent discussion. Dyson throws the whole vocab book, plus some words that dont even exist (but sound cool). Notice how someone like Dyson talks very differently from great minds like Thomas Sowell or Larry Elder
ShaunandShawn I disagree - he stayed on point. Jordan Peterson was heated and then tried to pretend like he didn’t understand the concept of being privileged. He tried to make MED out to be an idiot. But he failed because he was too emotional and he was just talking gibberish..
but they didn't enforce the fair housing act on our behalf...folk were still discriminating against us in housing...in every metric actually, but specifically in housing.
Why attack the man for speaking his truth? His message might be opinionated but it's based on fact, historical fact. Which make most of what he is saying truth from my point of view. You can't be intellectual in 5 words or less. If your in opposition to his opinions please elaborate. Don't just blast non intellectual attacks without backing it up.
“If you ain’t at the dinner table, you on the menu.”

Unbelievably one of the best interviews of the year. You have to appreciate what Dr.Dyson does for the culture and humanity! ✊🏽
Educated black men we out here! Love hearing this dude talk.
Sophisticated Swanson now go watch him get schooled by another educated black man in larry elder. This black man is part of the problem thats holding blacks back and is feeding off of it. He aint got shid on Elder
Sophisticated Swanson He's a HALF BREED..
An educated black man is a problem? The cops killing us for no reason is the problem. Us killing us and aborting us is the problem. More black and brown kids are being aborted than are killed by police or on the streets.
If he is supposed to be a model for an educated black man, that would be a problem. That implies that enough of the population thinks his shallow crap is anything more than intellectual waste.

Sophisticated Swanson....he loves to hear himself talk too!
It's funny that Angela and Envy have degrees but ctha god is the one with the knowledge and is driving the conversation. They should demand a refund on that shit.
khanyisani Buthelezi Formal education versus being informed
because they're quiet their degrees are meaningless?
FACTZ‼️‼️ The irony of it all👀 huh... (@formal education vs non education) Laughable🤣
Don't only go by what you see.
khanyisani Buthelezi You're impress with his knowledge ? SMDH
let me get my thesaurus ready for this brilliant man and his vast ass vocab. 😂
Lynn W It gives you a boring vibe when people use so much “big words” 😂😂
Your thesaurus will illuminate how empty his statements are. Its called being a huckster
Alexis Massey he doesn't "amuse" me, and brilliant is relative. i've heard him speak on enough topics intelligently to consider that word fitting.
if you don't agree, cool.
lol!
who you calling a niggas and retarded shows you using words don't know meaning, Stupid
I Could Hear Michael Eric Dyson Speak For Hours And Feel Very Powerful !!!
I 💙 Him A lot Always Been A Fan Since I Saw Him On The News Years Ago !!!! Speaking Up For POC ✊🏽🤗😘
How I would live to go to one of his lectures. Mr. Michael Eric Dyson. AMAZING!!!!
Yes! Thank you Mr.Dyson for encouraging people to read and unapoligetic stance on Black inteligence.
Amen. Staying ignorant is not s virtue
always loved michael eric dyson, one of the few black intellects that never seemed to turn against us in some format.
Okay, I'm watching this interview again and I mean, it's wonderful to see a room filled with black men and women (go angela!) Speaking intelligently and beautifully about hip hop, race, and much more. I felt inspired just by the conversations you guys were having!
First heard of Dyson when reading Holler If You Hear Me back in 7th Grade. It was definitely above my reading level...
It's funny how every time, and I mean every time you can go look, there's an intellectual black guest (be it Dyson, Maxine Waters, Angela Rye, Farrakhan, etc.) on the show the comment section is chock full of people trying to discredit them. Stay woke my friends ✊
Young King Kush So they're above criticism
Interesting. Did you realize that the commenters are subscribers to breakfast club? Someone comes on a show they watch regularly and display a bunch of intellectual disingenuous jargon that seeks to focus black anger and direct it for their own money and influence. People dont like that. Freedom of speech is not freedom from criticism.

Nole Country agreed
The best part are the history lessons. Politics is meaningless without historical context.
Knowing history allows you to analyze events critically and to form your own conclusions rather than just accepting what people tell you.
I think a lot of younger conservatives need to watch old debates and discussions from the 50s and 60s and realize white conservatives have been using the same rhetoric to describe black activists for the last 60 years.
You might conclude that they were right back then and they are right now, but at least you will have reckoned with history and hopefully have a better understanding of the arguments you're using.
Agreed!
Nole Country #facts
He hasn’t said anything lol
Love love love Dr. Michael Eric Dyson! I was soooo happy to see a new interview with him. He hits us with truth, great personality, teacher, and speaker!
I love this brother! He is so needed in our community. I can listen to Michael Eric Dyson all day! ✊🏾
When I was younger I didn't quite understand this man...but now that I'm a bit older. I love Dr. Michael Eric Dyson. Inspired!
Mosely Trybez damn I was hoping you got wiser as you got older
Chaos Miner i get it.
So you got much more stupid with age? Great evolution
One Drive you can’t say anything on the internet lmao *hands up, don’t shoot* pun intended
you can love and learn from whoever you like

Quinten Nash I understand. That's why I said each person may have their own path. All things aren't always equal to all.
The message he was trying to convey is that we should seek knowledge, by way of reading more and if possible attend college.
I see what your saying. I think what he is saying is that until you attend college you don’t know how to be productive in learning alone, researching alone or finding like minded people to discuss information. I think college gives you tools to use. So, like if you do teach yourself black history you will know how to research and study in an affective way . Ya know
one of the best interviews this year by far he dropped a couple of book titles that i need to get asap
Love this brother ✊🏿 dropping knowledge as always
I just love hearing this guy talk. I'm about to buy and read 10 books just because.
@Animated Universe of Mel I wouldn't take any advice from an alien that spews epithets with no context. Thomas Sowell? Unless you want to learn how to assimilate 101 I'd recommend Dr. John Henrik Clarke or better yet... brother Michael Eric Dyson! FOH with that black republican talk... back to space you go!
Animated Universe of Mel me too!
Me too im a nurse and constantly reading about care/nursing ...but i think i went into the wrong field and want to educate our black and brown kids!
Because of what
You love hearing him talk. But do you understand what he's actually saying? Get woke.
They mentioned a lot of artists and albums except Black Thought's "Streams of Thought VOL. 1" That EP is amazing! ! 👊✊💪☝👑🔥
"If you ain't at the dinner table, you're on the menu"
Damn. He could've ended the convo right there with that bar.
Love listening to this man 👏🏾 always dropping gems
Came and got a dose of some real this morning. Great interview!!!!
This brother needs to be in the BET cypher cause he got better bars than 95% of rappers today
FACTS
Damn...
Dyson needs to host a podcast...
Because I can listen to him everyday...
🗣️🗯️
I pity u
Yeah this is my guy
I love this man simply for his intelligence and how he keeps life so real! Thank you for being yourself. Thank you for standing up for our people and educating us about ourselves. Thank you for stressing how important it is to educate ourselves. The you for challenging us to use our minds.
I've been following Michael Eric Dyson for years. He is brilliant, intelligent, outspoken, well spoken, and this man is a hero for all black men and an amazing black man!!! 👊
I'm here to hear Dyson breakdown all hip hop lyrics in his sermon
Yooo Fam lol 😂 right
Thank you, Dr. Dyson. For so many years I allowed people to make me feel bad and apologize for my degrees and intelligence!
This is why I love the Breakfast Club; they are not afraid to have real, right, and raw guests who can effectively articulate the Black experience and social agenda. From ignorance to intellectual, the Breakfast Club has it all...
Hands down great interview!!
El Michael Eric dropping wisdom. Squint Boss approved.
This interview gave me LIFE!!!!! I love a man with important things to say.
Happy I witnessed this interview! Dyson has gave me the motivation to go back to school! Thanks brother!
Arnold Anderson please do brother for real...
black folk going to college but we're not getting jobs when we graduate.
You have to have a major the job market wants. Engineering (Computer, mechanical, electrical), math and science get the jobs. Liberal arts gets you nothing. Not always but more often than not.
I haven’t gotten a job in a year after I got my degree in Engineering. All my black teammates got a job in big companies the first week.
I've never heard an engineering grad having trouble. Is your former major one of the three I listed? Civil/environmental engineering tends to be hard to get a job in.
It’s electrical engineering, a year without work. I recently got into masters degree program to do something otherwise I would give the impression that I been inactive and employers don’t want me.
It is what it is though, i gotta keep my head high, it will come.

I'm so fired up right now....amazing interview!
Always great to hear this brother speak
Why are all you Haters in this room? Just because you don't agree or like Dr. Dyson doesn't mean that he is wrong! His platform is race and social justice!
Dyson: Read a book!!
Me: reads "12 Rules for Life"...
See guys, Dyson knows what he's talking about
Loooooove Mr. Dyson! Excellence at its finest. He is a true Michigander.
Thank you for showing intelligent brothers who still got their finger on the pulse of this hip hop culture. I appreciate this.
Pausing to write down all the names of the authors Professor Dyson just named✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
My boy in the building 👏🏾 Michael Dyson
Omillo Adams A.lot of people are mad. 9
he made a fool of himself during his debate with J. Peterson. He appeals to slave mentality.
Omillo Adams this dude read more books than I masterbated from 2011 to 2018. I want to start reading more.
Isaiah Reynolds You wild!!!!
No he didn't actually. Why do you white people lie and act as if people don't have eyes and ears? He made Peterson look bow his head, in shame, like a child after calling him an angry mean white man, lol
I'm here for Michael Eric Dyson's vocabulary. Watching with my dictionary app open. I love this man! He speaks truth!
Oswald Bates
Michael Eric Dyson’s intelligence is captivating, inspiring & addictive! I can listen to him talk the truth all day long!
Dope interview
I can't believe this interview just got 81K views, If it was some gossip or black people beefing with each other or this one sleeping with this one. We would've already been at MILLION VIEWS.
I have yet to miss any of his breakfast club interviews, I learn a lot from hearing his words, I took a social media break and it was the best decision I made in a long time
Yaay! Been waiting for them to have Michael back on the show!
Shouts to Dyson✊🏾they mad but can’t stop Success😂😂
ComModity some of these blacks want to stop success. Brainwashed like crazy.
Glamorous Geek real talk
A few months ago I read Michael Eric Dyson's book on Malcolm X "Making Malcolm" and was very disappointed, to say the least, at how he wrote about & how critical he was at times of Malcolm. Made me look at MED very differently.

Ry Cannon open my mind and close my bank.
chade right but if you look at education on a larger scale most black people are ignorant because they did not go to college regardless if it cost money college is not just an institution for learning you build communication skills and other skills needed to move around in “this” America you definitely need a combination of self teaching and learning from other people
Education is a weapon?

For some reason the same people will tell you pharmaceuticals are needlessly expensive and need to be reduced in price but NEVER want to call out the universities for having outrageous overhead and bloated spending in distributing knowledge in the digital age.
Daniel Love exactly why you have to distinguish between fact and fiction, learn your own body, take care or yourself you don’t have to go to college to know whats good and bad for you
The Bobby Kennedy doc is on Netflix.. it was really good
At 11:17 time, not even finished watching. I can honestly say this is the BEST interview on BCP105.1, so far!!!! Educated interview for the CULTURE. 1 Luv
Family, let's; "admit to commit" -- that there's a layer of sublime consciousness that our brother Michael Eric Dyson hits on that is the real essence of our intellectual melanin spirit.
@8:45 Dyson has been watching Al Capone cigarillos ads on URL. S/o to Yak Man 😹😹
Jordan Peterson stomped this guy in the munk debate. All Dyson did was bring up race when they suppose to debate about political correctness.
Mactownization naw
Mactownization Your the hater in crowd at Eric Dyson event for what reason.. Go watch and support Peterson. Peterson is not that great of speaker let alone teacher/debater
Jojo Saylor then why did those in attendance who were polled as "willing to change their veiws" do so in favor of Peterson? Let me guess, "muh oppression and the white man".
Paynus Vajonas The day you'll learn to think you'll learn that majority is not always right. Although I even doubt your statistics, given that I haven't seen them myself.
Blew Just Google search the Munk debate with their names and it will take you right to their website with the polls and statistics. I never claimed the majority was always right. In fact, I'd argue that the majority can be dead wrong (segregation laws, slavery, the drug war). All I'm saying is that, according to the audience, Jordan Peterson and Stephen Fry presented a better argument. And the debate wasn't even about race it was SUPPOSED to be about political correctness which covers all racial backgrounds, creeds and orientations. Dyson, who is arguably at this point racist, used it as an opportunity to race bait furthering his effort to didvide us racially. PLEASE don't buy into that. As a white man, I truly do recognize injustice in this nation. I want to do what I can to help fix it. It hurts me to think people of color see me as inherently racist. I was raised right. I want to help but I don't believe Dyson's ideology is the way we mend the racial tension in this country.
This is what we need! Show your excellence!
I love watching all his interviews Mr. Dyson 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😍😍😍
Shout out to Boblo Island!! #detroit #313
I agree with him on a lot of his points. However, you don’t have to go to college to be educated. You don’t have to go to college and be forced to read and research to LOVE READING AND RESEARCH. Growing up in poverty you already have the skills of critical thinking you just have to read and study to understand how to use it but you definitely don’t have to go to any college to learn these skills especially if you’re a young black person most of us are coming from families where college isn’t any option not because of lack of money but lack of time and earning to debt ratio! I love speaking to scholars but one thing some of them forget is the ability to evolve and transform. Water can be manifested in 3 different states of existence doesn’t mean it’s still not water.
Tasharee Ross perfectly said...this is a new generation.... we don't need schooling to be successful or be considered educated it's quite outdated...but the old generation doesn't understand that times have changed they keep telling us to go to school not knowing the high amount of debt will acquire and not knowing that a lot of times we won't be able to do anything with those degrees...because the old way seems to be a trap
I respect your stance on college, nevertheless I disagree. College is very important for obtaining the correct, detailed format by which to relay, address, and engage the various institutions that hold the structural powers within our societies. As a sociologist major, I totally understand Mr. Dyson' s sentiments. Just food for thought. If you disagree I'd be happy to substantiate my points with factual and imperical data, I simply ask that u do the same...
@Ms. Ross
Tasharee Ross you don't have to go to college like you don't have to go to church or Bible study...just consider only reading the Bible versus studying the Bible with theologians within a congregation...the many perspectives and ideas can be discussed and studied versus reading a book and reflecting about it on your own.
True, but community college is just as good as an expensive IVY league school. The Average cost is about $3,000 a year. If you're young and motivated you can pull 3G's a year easily. I know dudes from around my way that spend that money on their Jordan collection when they could be investing in a career instead. You just need to know how to play the game.
Wow! I’m putting this interview in my top five favorites!
Amazing. Powerful Interview Mr. Dyson🔥🔥🔥💜✊🏾
I have been waiting for this interview.
Echadh love his mgs and his books.
Jo Ann Lewis same.
Lmao he called Jordan Peterson an angry white guy and Peterson got all in his feelings 🤣🤣🤣
Because it was racist, if the same happened to a black person at that debate it would have been outrageous. Peterson has been called out on his temper many times and he hasn't ever gotten mad about it because that was not the thing he got mad about. The thing he got mad about was Dyson trying to put him in a category based on race, hence why Peterson responded with "you don't know a single thing about me". It was racist, bigotted and hypocritical, not to mention a personal attack in a proffesional debate. I mean there was so much wrong with that statement, the fact that you are still supporting him tells me you are not the brightest.
He wasn't in his feelings, he was just shocked by how dumb and incapable of seeing anything past race Dyson is
Yoo Hoo Be honest of Jordan called him a mean mad black guy you'd be pissed
When I see our people, speaking with passion and intelligence, warms my soul
I love listening to DR Michael Dyson ✊🏼💪🏼
Drake got the OGs in overtime splaining away his L 😂
Kamaal Tariq 🤣🤣🤣☠️💀
Kamaal Tariq my man has too 😂😂😂
mike dyson just made drizzy sound like a genius 😂😂😂, mike just ressurected drizzy for real 😂😂😂
FACTS...100%
You can tell he has a wealth of knowledge, he would like to share. Education is power. Great interview, my brother.
King Tee your mesmerized by his words not his intelligence. He's just talking nothing.
Decon frost
Excuse me,,,,
First: how old are you?
Second: You dont respect the fact that, a black man is able to have a intelligent conversation?
King Tee Firstly, why on earth do you go straight to that assumtion? Secondly, this Dyson fella makes no sense, he speaks volumes of nonsense all based on race. He only thinks of people ad their colour, he doesn't think of people of individuals. He's good at riling people up, that's IT.
No problem with a black man or woman being able to converse intelligently: there is a huge difference between throwing a vocabulary book at people and intelligent discussion. Dyson throws the whole vocab book, plus some words that dont even exist (but sound cool).
Notice how someone like Dyson talks very differently from great minds like Thomas Sowell or Larry Elder
He has a lot of word salad.
Jibbity Jibbity Jibbity, rat a tat tat.
Now, this interview SHOULD be trending!!
Best interview I've seen in a minute. Probably the best ever. Which it was longer.
He did a terrible response in that PC debate against Jordan Peterson. Wish he would have done better.
ShaunandShawn I disagree - he stayed on point. Jordan Peterson was heated and then tried to pretend like he didn’t understand the concept of being privileged. He tried to make MED out to be an idiot. But he failed because he was too emotional and he was just talking gibberish..
but they didn't enforce the fair housing act on our behalf...folk were still discriminating against us in housing...in every metric actually, but specifically in housing.
Michael Dyson has a way with words he gets me hooked every time he speaks
Wow! I can listen to these two guest talk about hip hop all day!
Yo this brother is 💯
LMFAO JORDAN PETERSON ADINON'D HIS ASS! HAHAHAHAHA
Jon Duncan ahaha for real
I fucks with peterson to be honest he speaks alot of facts
😂😂😂😂 he sure did
Rs, it was actually sad lmaoo
😂😂😂 so true!
LOVE when he comes to
the show!
I see a Michael Eric Dyson interview on the Breakfast club in the playlist and head straight for it, sorry Complex, the struggle can wait.
This dude is absolutely in love with the sound of his own voice.
Hahaha. He sure is.
This guy is dropping jewels!
When you have someone with " knowledge " the least you can do is listen .
A legend in his own mind
Why attack the man for speaking his truth? His message might be opinionated but it's based on fact, historical fact. Which make most of what he is saying truth from my point of view. You can't be intellectual in 5 words or less. If your in opposition to his opinions please elaborate. Don't just blast non intellectual attacks without backing it up.
