Michael Eric Dyson Interview: Chicago's Impact on Obama's Political Journey

[@katelanm.5674]

Dr. Michael Dyson is a great teacher ! I do wish to note that his perspective on Obama in this interview differs from his perspective of him in 2010 at the State of the Black Union with Tavis Smiley

Please don't put your name between great people like Obama or Dr Martin Luther King both of them stood for 1 thing which is equality and bringing people together. I wouldn't even put Obama in the same sentence as MLK his greatness is unparalleled.

[@jeromedanielson4422]

I agree, Cornel West ( IN PURSUIT OF A MORE PERFECT UNION) speaks about his disappointment with Obama, calling him spineless and lacking real courage, these descriptions could never be prescribed to MLK.

This expose of Dr. Michael Dyson should be made a part of the American Historical Legend. To know the history of American is to know what future may lie ahead for the people of America. It should be taught in most American Educational Institutions.

[@firpomaan5544]

I agree but I don't want a watered down version of it or manipulated history lessons. The problem with Dyson he is all for divide and always pushing Black vs white narrative. He doesn't want to move on from it.

Really ? He doesn't seem centrist at all from this perspective.

Race Hustle

[@VictoriaHeal-rq2vl]

I feel the time is upon us. By the way, Nikki Giovanni was in the curriculum in 1980 at Community College. What world do y’all live in that black authors and poets weren’t included? I was alive in the 1970’s - as young people we all felt free’er - didn’t you?

[@VictoriaHeal-rq2vl]

I feel like the idea was to force us to fight prior generations battles - we wanted to fight our generations battles. Nothing against Toni Morrison.

Ike should have deployed the National Guard in the 1950’s

[@VictoriaHeal-rq2vl]

Jesse was doomed because Carter was so disastrous.

[@VictoriaHeal-rq2vl]

Obama benefitted because many white people desperately want y’all to succeed. It’s just true that Asians have been left to wall flower themselves to success because Dim Dems have nothing riding on Asians having beef with America.

MR DYSON IS A “RACE HUSTLER”, AS MR THOMAS SOWELL WOULD SAY… HAVE A NICE DAY…

[@DDD-yr5os]

I saw Dyson debate with Jordan Peterson. Didn't know of the man. But after hearing him speak, he sounds like an angry racist.

[@claudejackson1555]

@@DDD-yr5os racist promotes violence, what is it about what he is saying that bothers you so much, sounds like he is chronicling resent history as it happened.

[@claudejackson1555]

What is a race hustler?

[@socialmediaaccount404]

@@claudejackson1555 Racism doesn't have to promote violence. It can just mean you don't like an other race. Or maybe you like them just fine but you believe they can't feel pain in the way your race does. That would be racist too. Dyson hates white people because he believes they are superior and he doesn't respect black people because he believes they don't measure up. Any other race doesn't matter or really exist in his mind. He is an extremely disturbed man, could probably say he is insane. A fascinating character to be sure but not someone you should take seriously.
