Black lawyers who become historians are powerful: Gerald Horne, Greg Carr, Annette Gordon Reed, Jeffrey Robinson. There’s something there…

[@Nisa1971]

Yes! They are good at connecting the dots to tell a complete story.

[@dwrighte1]

That is because several of us studied and majored in history for undergraduate studies.

Mr. Robinson's father, Herbert Robinson, was my high school principal. His presentations are splendid!

[@megandickerson886]

I absolutely LOVED this conversation, just as Mr. Robinson spoke…my head has been blown off in the past two years. The truth shall set you free…from In Class with Carr, to the birth of Knarrative, to all the knowledge and awareness you have bestowed upon your people Ms. Hunter…thank you! Sometimes I think of leaving this country, but I want to bring a brick to fight and safe my people.

*@Karen, I'm so HAPPY that you said **#MediocrityFearAndNationalism** because I too, never thought there was a 'White Supremacy'; they have NEVER been SUPREME over us!* *Also, all of these so-called symbolic attributes are insults to our intelligence! WE NEED **#REPARATIONS**, immediately!!!!* ✊🏽 *In addition to going down a deep hole of knowledge, we need more **#MasterTeachers**, few teachers are even equipped to go deep, they only know what they know.*

[@karenl7786]

More than anything this highlights not that we are ignorant and do not know ourselves, but that the effort to crush that knowledge out of us is tremendous, ongoing and very real. And still we rise, slowly and painfully but yes we do.

Having seen his presentation 2018 on KZbin. His creditably was why I stayed tune to his other presentations with different audiences, the message was on the path at this level by a person people listen to. So so pleased to see its now a documentary.

[@pooryorick831]

Jeffery Robinson connected all the pieces of history in a way I never saw before. And I, who grew up in suburban California, have always prided myself on my knowledge. But I've had to admit that in some regards I was ignorant and prejudiced in ways that I was unaware of. There is nothing I can do about that other than to try and educate myself now. I am still not as educated as I wish I was, but Mr. Robinson helped me find places to start. The one real result is that I now tend to listen more to what black people have to say about race in America than what white politicians say. And until we fully accept our shared history for what it is, there will be conflict. For my part, I try to tell others about the things I now know. I try to raise awareness among my family and friends. And it is tough going. People don't easily give up their preconceived notions and prejudices. But Mr. Robinson has given me a good starting place. So I commend and thank him for that.

Exactly!!! Pictures on quarters and dollars, streets renamed after Blacks, and holidays is nothing but symbolism with no sustenance 👊🏿

[@genie7325]

Mr.Robinson you are so humble and great, I learned so much, “ thank you all”

[@ginaetillis4886]

IDK... something tells me that if he had attended a Black school in Memphis (with the phenomenal Black Memphis educators), he would not have been shocked to learn about the history of racism. He paid for his miseducation at "the best schools" and didn't learn anything. I also understand Black history is not widely assessable, but it's not hiding in plain sight. Black educators/people been teaching/sharing this insight, but social structure just ain't trying to hear it. And We are going to continue having these courageous conversations with or without the banned books laws in our classes and in our communities. We have a long rich history of Fugitive Pedagogy. Thank you, Prof. Hunter and Jeffery Robinson. Bless up

[@campbellde]

Professor Hunter, you are doing the damn thang. Much more success in the future.

[@AntCension9]

Queen Karen is the woman.

[@p.w.7493]

Thank you Prof. Hunter for this discussion with the esteemed Jeffrey Robinson! This brother has been bringing the goods for the good fight!!👏🏾👏🏾 Kudos to you, Prof. Hunter for even as a child you were rejecting the incongruency in the narrative that was being fed to you about our ancestors!!🌹👏🏾 It's amazing how everything is seemingly coalescing for our people today. With each guest that you invite on your podcasts, you're helping to expose the insanity of what is being done to hide our history/heritage!! We need to take extra care to ensure that ALL our children (from Kindergarten thru HS) are educated about our ancestors' contributions to this country. As Black parents, educators, religious leaders, etc., it's on us to ensure that our truths are taught to our children no matter how much our politicians/ leaders try to eliminate our history!!🙏🏾💯

[@gretchenmann633]

Amazing.... thank you Jeffery Robinson.

[@DarryleCanyon]

Man, that was a really good discussion! Appreciate you Prof. Hunter.

Peace! This was highly educational for the masses. Thank You 😊 for this gift 🎁 sis the brother dropped 💎 jewels…

[@gwenmatthews4153]

That session with Jeffrey Robinson was very informative about reparation happening before. Dr. Carr has taught us a lot about our history and open our eyes to how to work together as a people to solve some of our issues by knowing our history. Thank Karen Hunter for everything you have done for us all.

[@bridgettesudds359]

From listening to this video this evening, I had to get off my butt and stop being lazy. I am know a knarrative family member. Thanks Prof. Hunter!!

[@AntCension9]

Queen Karen I love the gems you bring.

[@abbassaquee286]

Thoroughly enjoyed this incredible interview as none American about our brothers and sisters in the USA how they suffered in building of the USA for absolutely nothing and America deeply going into the abyss the nation that called themselves the beacon of democracy really.

[@reneefox6397]

Hi Karen and thank u for bringing Mr. Robinson on we have to educate our children and make sure they read the books being banned.

[@nannettewhite1653]

I love what he was speaking and I need to see this documentary

[@BlackBeerdedNerd]

That was an extremely educational piece and I will be watching that documentary ASAP. Thank you Professor Hunter for putting this out there✊🏿.

[@chandraboone3741]

Jeffrey Robinson!! Another gem!!

[@clarissajones5636]

Karen, I so LOVE your comments on how what became In Class with Carr freed you. I've been on this journey too and so glad ourbpths crossed!!! I need these spaces! Holding Sanity.

[@sheritamitchell1036]

Another jewel in your Crown, Professor Hunter!👑💎

[@champd12z]

[@melvinwright8654]

We, as black people, are a Renaissance and rebirth people who are Ra-membering our greatness.

[@tamilhoward9708]

Great conversation!!!

[@AttyIkiesha1972]

So grateful for this!!! ❤️

[@yuchichan4815]

I get the feeling there has been some sought of awakening since Mr Floyd's murder.

[@shernicemundell1145]

Great discussion!!

[@Cneph1964]

So valuable - Thank you, Professor!

[@iam1blackpowercoachkc51]

I appreciate you asking questions that are deep! The questions ignite thought, conversation, and desire to read more deeply. #Knubian ✊🏾

[@sheiladaniels364]

Thank you I really enjoyed watching this video. I started looking online after watching another program that lead me to watch this program. You are right the information is in plain sight. I just read something a few months ago about Lincoln paying that money 😳. I was shocked about that. 👍🏾

[@01sandes]

Excellent Interview !!

[@shanettedrayton7217]

[@victoriaallen3753]

Really good interview.

[@salimapeacejoy]

We have to educate our own!

[@coachdonnieb.420]

Great show. I love the look Karen, Knubia hoodie and head wrap. 👍🏿

[@sasbridgecloserstudent]

I enjoyed this discussion.

[@clarissajones5636]

WHY IS THE TRUTH NOT BEING TAUGHT IN HBCUs or Independent "black" charter schools??!!!! I know, I know, I'm a Knubian but NOW!! WHY NOT??!!!

[@andreabrown4541]

And here we thought STEM was more important than history to the black community. Back in the day, white people wrote a bunch of stuff down, and people are starting to look at the receipts. That's why the lost cause myth has fallen into disrepute.

[@hm7563]

We need to educate. Education and honest information from pre school to prison. Our families need to be focused on building and education.

[@vincentwilliams2306]

Great discussion, but to sum it all up. We are in a time when CRT has come into play , because many blacks as well other people has questioned the history we've been taught. There is so much resources out there that validate our true history that it's not even debatable anymore, so they just want to deny it altogether.

[@miekaford7926]

[@Missy714]

So now it's being represented accurately, that ignorance is the catalyst for inadequate solutions. #Bravo

[@KAM-rl6tz]

This was AMAZING to watch! I wonder where I can find his documentary? Hopefully it will appear on a streaming service OR I can purchase it.

[@denisebyrd5379]

We better wake up as brown marinated people in the USA and teach our own Children Truth!!!Train up a child in the way it should go!!! Bible!!!!

[@rjhop]

It is out responsibility to use every option available to reveal our Truth and History to the world.

[@denisebyrd5379]

Seeing this clip or Discussion talk what people don't get relief or closer is because no one wants to talk real talk!!!

[@Pamelamusic371]

Everything about this country government school churches on and on are all interwoven with racism. I’m a Musician, my education is European history based, classical and so forth. Other cultures are disregarded. The more I’ve learned has absolutely changed me, smh

[@roselotusmystic]

👍🙏

[@LadySekhmet-Returns]

The only thing that needs to be discussed right now is what happened to Amir

[@1obwon]

Where can I purchase this DVD?

[@Ladyrolanda]

What History classes are they teaching at HBCU's?

[@clarissajones5636]

Allies and Co-Conspirators?? Do they REALLY exist and what is the difference. We better know and come to an understanding!
