Ep. 2: Gerald Horne on The Counter-Revolution of 1836: Slavery, Jim Crow & the Roots of US Fascism

[@KOKAYI69]

We need more John Brown & Sons in America!

[@NatTurner1555]

Deep down inside black people collectively understand what you've said but due to certain factors (chiefly the fear complex which is the legacy of slavery as a form of social control) it is to remain dormant and its dormancy strengthened by the self-defeatist psychosis of those who have been projected onto black people as leaders. Some have resorted to such purposely because it serves their cliquish interests which revolve around access to material opulence. It safeguards their niche within society, siphoned off from the rest who wallow in abject poverty apart from the blue collar segment in the middle. There's an ole saying: why cut off the hand that's feeding you, instead of: why not cut off the hand that's harming us. The key word is the singular you and not plural us. Dig it!

Dr. Horne is the greatest historian in the world.

Horne's respect for the interviewer helps us all because Horne provides a clarity of thought that shows his respect.

[@defactopodcastwithanthonyb576]

Horne is one of the most generous and charitable scholars I've ever met. ❤️

[@happygucci5094]

Absolutely- never condescending or snarky- a natural educator and brilliant communicator of complex ideas and intricate subject matter. 1000% agree. It’s the confidence coupled with a humility is 🤯👌🏽💯💗🙏🏽 His intelligence and sound knowledge of a plethora of areas is amazing.

[@justmyopinion9883]

Dr Horne is a magnificent historian. He is a walking, talking encyclopedia. I wish I could take a class with him. Thank you for sharing this interview with him.

[@NatTurner1555]

And if you did then what? See. The problem and rather historically has been a whole lot of black intellectuals who have emerged among US but have failed on purpose for a purpose to embrace the revolutionary approach to abolishing the political and socioeconomic ills that plague US. All they have pretty-much committed themselves to is writing books and giving speeches, going no farther than resorting to critical condemnations of the system (and rightfully so) of things which has earned some the title of radical only to increase their wallets and pocket books. It is quite the hustle while OUR conditions remain the same collectively. In other words, what they've been doing historically can be summed up as intellectual masturbation. They want rain without thunder. They want to reap the crops without getting their hands dirty. They expect the non-intellectuals of US to inculcate the information they disseminate and be the ones to carry out the work on the battlefield while they stand on the sidelines and watch. Those days must come to an end. And they most definitely will so says the laws of nature because ameriKKKa is sitting on a powder keg. And all the posturing in the world won't protect them. History has clearly demonstrated time and again that revolutionary ideology and practice has been the most viable of all the solutions to the madness that subjected people have had to bare. And it requires sacrifices (even if losing one's life in the process) from which the black intellectuals have refrained. WE can no longer stick OUR heads in the sand in the face of truth. It comprises with none of US. FACTS!

Holy cow! Dr. Horne's presentation is electrifying. He is Zeus atop a Mount Olympus of scholarship throwing bolts of truth that elucidate our current predicament and historical landscape. Bravo on this tour de force! The elemental truth of Dr. Horne's themes should be obvious to all who study our American past. The clarity of his vision and presentation, however, are extraordinary. Thank you.

These interviews are so good. Its great to hear Professor Hornes dissection of history, slavery and racism. He is a great scholar and academics like him are vital in this day and age to overcome the intellectual dishonesty and desire to sweep unpleasant truths under the carpet.

"It's like if you go to the doctor presenting lung cancer and he doesn't want to hear about your smoking 2 packs a day for 30 years" DAMN!!!

[@user-gz9hl7rz5j]

Yes, however clear to us that metaphor is, it is muddy to someone who doubts critical race theory as they will say the dr doesn't need to hear about your smoking bc he already has the diagnosis. Dr. Horne in another interview reminds us that it is the mode of treatment of the lung cancer that is dependent on knowlege of the patient's history. --> Full comprehension of history is imperative to creating a good future for all.

[@satanscrow8016]

The Science channel did a show about slavery in America in the last two to three weeks ago, and NOT ONCE did they say 'black people'. They called us, ""America's enslaved people" If it wasn't for the pictures of black people working in the fields you would think they were talking about some unheard of race that America also enslaved! Would it kill them to say 'black'? Apparently so.

[@mobybongo]

Love this interview - QUESTION around 55:00 Gerald Horne talks about "a book called Net Country ..." ... net country? KNET country? - Do you know what book (or subject) he is talking about? - Keep up the excellent work De Facto/Anthony B. ...

Was Texas still in slavery, after 1865 Galveston aka Juneteenth? Was slavery still thriving in 1866 and ended in Austin Texas? Was East Texas in Beaumont still in slavery in 1866?

[@syourke3]

No, it’s not! Gerald Horne is a fraud, like the 1619 Project, he’s pushing a political agenda and distorting history in a huge way. You should read some of the professional criticism of Horne. They are right!

[@defactopodcastwithanthonyb576]

@@syourke3 care to share the criticism in question?

[@syourke3]

What is really “ridiculous” is that many people are being indoctrinated with racist nonsense like the 1619 Project and frauds like Gerald Horne! Slavery had nothing to do with the American Revolution which was a progressive revolution that championed freedom and the abolition of slavery while Great Britain profited greatly from the slave trade and actually supported the south in the American Civil War! Do you want to learn the truth about the American Revolution or do you want to listen to lies and frauds that serve a present political agenda?

So confused about your subscriber count, Anthony. With the content/interviews you churn out, with Dr. Horne and Dr. CBS, etc…you have 6-7x as many views on your videos as subscribers? You specifically are one of the best interviewers of scholars out there. Totally f’ing puzzled by your subscriber count. Keep it up…the users and the algorithm have to catch up to you eventually
