Wonderful discussion. I've had the honor of meeting professor Gates. Brilliant man.

[@lifestoriesinterviews]

That’s amazing! He truly is a brilliant mind. We think you'd enjoy historian Jelani Cobb, which you can find here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lanckGOJa7qHg68

Excellent show. I find it fascinating!

[@LithaMoonSong]

I wish I could just hug him. Such a wonderful educator .

[@christopherfegley421]

I can see why all Dr Gates' classes had waiting lists.

[@christopherfegley421]

He is not only a preeminent edu c actor he's a West Virginian in the best sense

This is 2024 ,when will we as black people ever live @ peace,I do not live in America have been living in Canada over 50 years and their is problem with Race here but it’s very bad in America and I ‘m very scared of going there one of my kid was offer a high profile job there but had to turn it down because of the problems of guns and race in that country.He found the same job in Canada.

[@christinestangeland7771]

I also love professor Gates, he's the best of us.

[@rrickarr]

I have always wondered about the person who called the police in the first place and did not know who her neighbour was. What does she have to say for herself, or how does she feel that she (because it was a woman) caused all of this noise!!!!!

[@kathleenstoin671]

I was outraged and horrified when I heard about Dr. Gates' arrest! I couldn't believe this could happen to such a man! It just proves that racism wins over common sense.

[@TL2354]

Why? It has zero to do with you

[@kathleenstoin671]

@@TL2354 So we aren't allowed to have a reaction over how someone is treated? Should I care about children being abused if it has zero to do with me? Should I care about anyone else at all? Maybe you should do some hard thinking about your own noncaring reactions.

[@staceyfromkc]

@@TL2354 Your statement show you are most definitely part of the problem

[@johnwayne2103]

The arrest yes but what Gates did to address the arrest was try to hold court in the streets and he immediately claimed racism.

[@danielle38134]

Love Mr. Gates. He is such a good man and intelligent articulate man and a well spoken man. Peace ☮️ ✌️👍🏼🕊️

At 68 yo so much of our collective past rings new to my mind. Beliefs and thoughts of the past are harder to pass off to an old man than a young one. So much has changed and still the dark, small ignorance and hatefulness of people all around us; within our own families and work. All I can think is with so much blessing we are spoiled and small and petty instead of grateful, kind and generous to people we have shared this country with since the beginning.

[@wap9137]

Which neighbor called it in? Dont they know who their neighbor is? They needed to be at the meeting, too, me thinks

[@Shermansgreat3257]

I as an American i feel victims should stop apologizing for being a victim.🤔The day will come when the victimizer will face his or her sins.

[@violetbennett2407]

He was just as white as he was black. I voted for him both times. I am white but I bored for him because he was mixed. A few weeks later I found out that I am related to him through his mother’s line. I think he was a good president. I would vote for him again if it was possible.

[@carlfrye1566]

Boston's Mayor/City Council/DA/etc has been Democrat since the 1930's. That means the police dep't was run by Democrats at the time of this incident. Like the 5 police shootings in 2020(Minneapolis, Louisville, Atlanta, Kenosha, and Philly) those cities/police were also Democrat run....however the mainstream(Democrat centric) media never pointed that out because they/Democrats wanted black folks to blame "racism"...which is their code word for conseevatives/Republicans. The police officer who showed racism in this incident was ok to be on the force in the eyes of the city leaders(Democrats). And you wonder why some things never change.......while you black folks vote Democrat the past 50 years?

[@shirleyashanti3031]

I voted for him to honor the hopes of my ancestors. He said he hoped nobody voted for him because he was black. I never considered another reason.

[@eicrusade6161]

I'm still wondering about the person that called the police.

[@WVgrl59]

It was Mr Gates neighbor they called the police thinking someone was breaking in but it makes me wonder if they didn't know him very well or didn't like him.

[@AngelaSImmons-o5p]

I love listening to Dr.Gates jr

[@DUBLINMUG]

NO skip it actually is typical, and Crawley telling you that Bull that he's worried about going home is cuz they literally drill that into them to be scared of every black person and gaslighting you because once they saw it was your house it wasn't Cool because once you stepped on the porch they did what they wanted to do anyways cuz I'm sure there were photos of you you wifey kids but they just didn't want it to be yours even once they were proven that this was your address this is your house still had to show you who is boss

[@lindag4029]

What about when a police run up on you putting handcuffs, using aggressive profanity laced, condescending language and not telling you what’s going on. How does the black community deal with that? Why is the burden always on us ?

[@solemandd67]

Because that's the way the enemies have indoctrinated themselves and their "Just-Us" system.

How were his rights violated?...and who does your f-cking make up

[@Margaret-gx6jf]

I . . I didn' t know this arrest happened. Actually what happened? It was his house?

[@WVgrl59]

Dr Gates smiled when the man said Professor Skip Gates, take one.

[@rrickarr]

For all the people who said that Obama did nothing for Black people, need to here about this incident with the President commenting on Bill Gate´s false arrest. A very important discussion.

[@James-j5y]

For clarity, why was he arrested?

[@uyisbobbylevy4051]

Best of wishes to you Dr.Gates, try to read the magnificent books of Dr.Thomas Sowel.

Monophonic. Check your computer or mobile's sound settings and slide the balance left and right until you get sound. It's def there and strong, but only on one side.

Thank you for your tip! I will try it!

Update: it worked, the sound, all of a sudden:D. Not by following your tip, but just by itself. But thanks anyway!

When I fill out forms that ask me for race I always put HUMAN. All people have opinions about EVERYTHING and anything. If you are bald,blonde, short, tall. You name it, it is OK . I like liver and onions you don't have to. You just can't shoot or punch people because they do.
