Glenn Loury’s Journey From Chicago’s South Side to The Ivy League And Beyond

[@samboulton7722]

Smart. Humble. Eloquent and Brave. People of all races would do well to listen to this man. God bless you Glenn.

[@darleenlev3478]

Thanks for making the world a better place, Dr. Loury.

[@StormTrysail]

I am more impressed with Glenn every time I listen to him. His life’s experiences coupled with his deep emotional attachment to his upbringing has made him an American treasure. We need wise men like Glenn to lead us through these troubled times that lay ahead.

[@our2kidsMR]

This discussion solidifies Professor Loury as a national treasure. Thank you!!

[@PaolaSanchez-kq3lx]

Where would I be without you, Hoover Institution. I ❤️ YOU

[@kathleankeesler1639]

A man with style, grace and humility. Thanks for this interview.

[@milart12]

Love Glenn Loury and love Peter Robinson's enthusiasm and genuine interest in all of his guests.

[@lgude]

As an American in my late 70s Glenn makes me proud to be an American. We are not done yet as long as such voices can be heard. American voices may be particularly important right now because of the claim that the nonsense being perpetrated is apparently always justified in the name of oppressed groups. Pfui!

[@sbaumgartner9848]

Glenn, this is the first time I've heard you speak other than on your program. Both you and Peter are voices of intelligence and sanity. Much respect to both of you.

[@amartinez838]

Excellent discussion. The quote from Sowell is truth, “…cannot afford the luxury of having their time wasted on ideological propaganda…” (21:12). Wiser words have never been spoken.

[@buffhooper7417]

Nice to come to know this man. Glad Brown U. has some sanity.

[@user-bt8vn3dj6o]

Love how Mr. Loury uses the phrase "my kids" when talking about his students. A great man.

[@seamusbolton215]

How on earth have I never heard of this man before now !

[@elizabethannegrey6285]

Wow!!!Greetings from South Africa Nov 2021. This is the most uplifting, most hopeful thing I have heard in years!! Glen Loury an exceptional man; Peter Robinson my favourite presenter, a man of sensitivity and perfect timing.

[@jndking9419]

Kudos Dr Loury on all your accomplishments. Thank you for the kind words to Justice Thomas, he so deserves it.

[@Ray-tk7ei]

From a white guy who believes we are all God's children. What a lovely wise man, if only there were more like him, I could listen to him forever. Thank you sir, I will follow you. From Ray London England.

[@aucourant9998]

That was a really excellent interview. This man knows what's happening.

[@mattwilliams3427]

Dr. Loury is an embodiment of American values, what it is to be American. A great man indeed.

[@carbonfibercrypto2919]

This man has integrity. Much respect brother. My skin is human skin, like yours.

[@juliekemp419]

This 73 yo Australian female former RN, Earth Traveller, BA etc LOVED THIS DEAR PETER INTERVIEW WITH THE VERY ELOQUENT PROFESSOR GLENN LOURY. SUPER SUPER SUPER, APT APT APT, LOVELY LOVELY LOVELY. SPOT ON SPOT ON SPOT SPOT ON. RIGHT, LEFT, MIDDLE, NORTH SOUTH EAST AND WEST. Thank you both for sending me around the World in thought and feeling, with a note or two of tingling transcendence in the fullness of the joy of Consciousness and Spirit that has given us this Wonderful World - but one that is being so blighted by pathetic warring woke propaganda that has no true sense of the base-line and core reality of Life Itself.

[@jessepruitt5210]

My man is str8 up speaking truth🧐. Nice going, again Pete. Brilliant interview & guest. Morally principled, honest man.

[@jessepruitt5210]

Parents HAVE GOT to UNDERSTAND that the Teachers Unions don't give a damn about teaching kids. Not a DAMN😞.

[@petedymond]

Another fantastic interview. Thanks for asking the right questions both Glenn & Peter

[@r.c.7762]

Glenn is a class act, and a voice of reason.

[@gobowwoewow3752]

Yay! I love Glenn! Thanks for having him on! Now I'm just waiting for Peter Hitchens

[@johnbrown4568]

Professor Loury is an American intellectual gift to our society.

[@johnbeaudoin1218]

Before I watch this, I'll comment on Mr. Loury from my knowledge of all his other videos. He's courageous and conflicted. He's prideful and humble. You have to watch the growth and changes of the man throughout his life and not just a video like this in his elder ages. He's been torn internally and externally and came out fine because he forces objectivity unto himself even when emotions conspire to overtake him. Whereas Sowell is almost purely objective in his public statements and conclusions, Lowry battles internal emotions constantly. He prefers the company of his own people to feel comfortable and open to be himself even to this day. He rationally likes everyone, but his preference is his people. And there's absolutely NOTHING wrong with that. He's a great guy and one I'd like to meet someday. Courageous, intelligent, accomplished, objective, and a great all around guy. What happened to the word "liberal"? Did the word change? Did the people who claim the word change? The left is the most illiberal group and I'm sure that saddens the likes of Glenn Loury. I wish every black person, especially young black men, could be students of Loury in life and in the classroom. A great American man.

[@suzettecalleja3122]

Peter keep up the GREAT work , without you we would never know and learn about ALL the wonderful , and knowledgeable people you bring on. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.

[@alek4811]

An intellectual giant who speaks the truth! I admire this guy immensely!

[@MichiganFan70]

Love Glenn. So much knowledge.

[@weishiue2159]

‘ I worked my tail off .‘ That’s what it should be ! My first landlord is a black man working as shoe salesman at Sears. He always get my respect.

[@grahamcombs4752]

Glenn Loury offers truth and hope. Your recent interview with Chris Christie offers accommodation and acceptance of the unacceptable. A great interview. MY GRANDFATHER'S SON! A great book and beautifully written. His editor said she never had a writer work so hard on a book. Essential reading. I recommended it often as a bookseller.

[@meropemerope6096]

Can I have a link? i can't find it

[@karenfornwalt9929]

Thankyou for this conversation. I truly hope you have many more conversations with the great Glenn Loury. Just fantastic !

[@jamesboekbinder3967]

Beautiful interview! Can't wait to read his memoir.

[@HoneyDrake]

Glenn Loury is a good man, and totally speaking truth !

[@cloud1stclass372]

Great man. Wish this could have went longer.

[@jstanley8342]

22:54 - "The intellectuals...I could name names but...it's not about personalities here[.]" PERFECT.

[@dasglasperlenspiel10]

I've watched the Glenn Show from time to time, and it is good. But this is the best. just the best! thank you, everyone who made this interview possible!

[@ange9547]

Great interview as always. Peter Robinson there is no one else in current times who conduct an interview as perfectly as you do. As for Prof Loury he is an inspiration and a breath of fresh air. Brilliant.

[@andrewbarnes752]

Another great interview with a fascinating guest. Thank you Peter, the Uncommon Knowledge series is superb!

[@OccamsRazor393]

Glenn Loury is Fantastic! Thankyou so much for having him on.

[@allysondoerfler2435]

I'm 71 and I can remember the warnings from the Right that Johnson's Great Society would result in what we see now. The thing about social engineering is that it can take decades for the unintended consequences to be seen and felt. In the beginning those issuing the warnings seem harsh, unfeeling, racist and unhinged. Not only has poverty not been ended, but the suffering, wasted lives and death is incalculable.

[@thesagetraveler7649]

Man, I would have loved to attend that seminar!!

[@motorcycleboy6939]

I love this man! Thank you Mr Laury for sharing your wisdom.

[@wyliegarcia5965]

So happy this auto played while preparing a meal. A thoroughly satisfying conversation. Thank you

[@DavidBernhard]

Thank you Glenn. We need more voices like yours to help us save our country. You are speaking hard truths. It’s a bitter pill. I fear that at some point we will fracture and the many who are not into the woke ideologies (the majority) will respond with violence out of frustration and fear due to the chaos & riots. We need to show our children the values of morality, responsibility, and respect of others. Our government is lost in its desire to remain in power, thus unable to provide the leadership and supportive guidance. It is on us, the people of this country, to live the values and elect people support of the founders values. We need to by our actions disempower the main stream media from promoting the divisive narratives and work to a better future.

[@fromyonderpeaks]

Glenn is a man of generous heart and tremendous intellectual power. Thanks for the interview.

[@AnnaMishel]

Mr. Loury is the best! and Mr. Robinson is the best interviewer!

[@pamh2697]

Fantastic interview! Professor Loury is a great man.

[@joycemagann4227]

Love Glen Loury!

[@Chamindo7]

I love and admire Dr Thomas Sowell. I now add Dr Glenn Loury to that admiration.

[@jackreacher.]

Glenn is my cousin. He is a righteous American leader.

[@mikewilliams4947]

Another incredible piece! Thank you Happy Holidays for everyone at the Hoover Institute!

[@robenow]

I was born and raised in Chicago. Lived in a handful of the 77 neighborhoods in Chicago. I moved to the far South Side of Chicago, weeks before Covid. "I'm on fire!" There are many fires growing throughout this City! One of the key answers to this is in a humble, repentive, redemptive Church. Revival, is the only thing that can bring true freedom and liberty reconciliation & healing here. It's happening in pockets throughout the City. There are NO race issues among those who know the truth. We will become that City on a hill burning Brightly, and the woke will bust! Come back to the SS of Chicago help us "seize the opportunity! " The Church can develop and has the vision to be the ACTS she ought be. Yes indeed the ball is in your court clearly .... come back to Chicago .. and lets kick the ball as one body one faith! The violence is about DRUGS thats the knee on all our lives lives ... DRUGS 790 people killed? Why ? Drugs! " Its the BLACK & CHURCH working together as one, one body one faith❤️💒🏡🇺🇸🙌

[@ju_jubes]

I admire Dr. Loury more every time I hear one of his interviews. Thank you.

[@mattbucher9559]

Have been waiting for this episode!

[@JRS2248]

Very Good! Dr. Loury is definitely a man of great integrity . There aren't enough men of any color who share his inelegance .

[@saltburner2]

With people like Glenn (and John McWhorter) about, the torch of Thomas Sowell can be handed on someone worthy to bear it.

[@grahamtrezise1114]

Loved it..great interview, thank you Mr Loury.

[@user-tj9bg6tz2p]

Dr Loury, I salute you.

[@dannyharvanek4334]

A classic education of Americans youth is the correction for moral norms - The heart is the lamp lite at our feet - the good the true & the beautiful!

[@tonycatman]

Inspiration from a father or grandfather. Almost every time. Why do our governments continue to disempower and replace the role of the father ?

[@saltburner2]

"Why do our governments continue to disempower and replace the role of the father ?" Because, as Candace Owens says, the 'plantation mentality' is maintained by the DNC to ensure their continued power.

[@shawnaweesner3759]

The people that run our government get money and power from weakening and destroying American families. It’s much easier to commit immoral acts when the country is in chaos.

[@mikewilliams4947]

I’m sure that was a rhetorical but I’d say so the state takes the place.

[@vincei4252]

Because it creates more drones that depend on and vote for more government.

[@Dude0000]

Power! It’s hellava drug.

[@vaughnmichael5114]

Glenn Loury is an amazing man. God Bless him!

[@alfredsims6105]

Thank You for this presentation

[@hrossaman]

Thank God for Glenn Loury.

[@Teal_Seal]

Professor Loury, PLEASE take care of your health - your voice is needed!

[@sunnyla2835]

Such an awesomely brilliant man!🙏❣️

[@jpp9876]

It takes more than a village to raise a child. It takes loving parents that give their kids tools to succeed. Does this mean kids with out these loving parents are without hope? No, the village can help but can never be a replacement. Some of these tools to help one succeed are to devalope their skills, encourage them to get along with others, instil some higher virtues, gain some self control over their passions. Help them have some successes in their lives. This is just a few. How can the community step in when needed? Give a kid some encouragement, sometimes an oppertunity, there are many more. I have noticed people growing up in America and not doing well as an adult is a problem for most people who grow up in poverty, people in all races, not just black Americans. They usually grow up in dysfunctional families, alcholosism and drug abuse are common denominators.

[@katking6820]

Dr Loury is a younger Thomas Sowell!! That is the highest compliment I can give any Academic.

[@falconb8t750]

Excellent interview! Well said.

[@gcbaileyiii]

Glenn is a Realist par excellence

[@benstallone6784]

Glenn Loury should be a household name

[@adagal13]

Love Glenn. A real pleasure listening to him speak. Thanks

[@stevenwiederholt7000]

0:46 One of the differences between The Woke and the Awake is We Laugh, we try to have a good time. Their (The Woke) lives must be horrible.

[@nathanngumi8467]

A great discussion!

[@bb8328]

Thank you for your work Dr Loury.

[@injesusitrust5211]

I love you, Glenn. What a pleasure to hear your wisdom directly from God's word. We must encourage our youth to do better and only with God can it be done. God bless you, Sir. It's hard to see our street youth living so far from the truth and without love. On the other hand, your wonderful students who understand their independent freedom and accept the harder road are succeeding! They are greatly blessed by your example. So...1. Excellence in factual data driven education with a focus on information analysis and reason. 2. Personal accountability to God first. 3. Accountability to family. 4. Meaningful contributor to society. Four keys to the maturity of our youth and the success of America's future. How do we take the keys from the deceivers? How do we get our youth to accept our superior set and unlock the door to freedom?

[@helenbeach5581]

So inspirational! Thank you! I would love to take the course that was spoken of in this discussion. Is this possible? I’m Canadian, and our country needs your wise teaching, Prof. Loury. I would love to work my way through the information shared with your students.

[@belindaterry6010]

Modest Hero. Voice of inspiration and reason. Would love to be in his class any day.

Glenn, killing it as always.

[@stanw909]

Great interview as usual, but I'm a little disappointed that he didn't circle back to professor Laury's gratitude, because it is such a seemingly rare commodity now a days in our entitlement culture.
