This story reminds me of a Canadian study I heard reported on back in 1980, it looked to prove the propaganda line that “smokers cost the Canadian government more money, for healthcare, than non-smokers.” But the study found that smokers actually didn’t run up higher healthcare costs, as they tend to die younger, and most of the cost in the Canadian system went to caring for the elderly for the last few years of their life. Not surprisingly the results weren’t welcome, as they study was done to justify further increasing taxes of tobacco, and the day after hearing that report the study literally disappeared and never heard of again.

The humanities does not make up the majority of research dollars at any research university. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Academia is extremely competitive, has bad pay, and is extremely difficult. People are typically attracted to it only because of their obsession with the truth, and this has been commensurate with my experiences. Yes, there is something nutty going on in the social sciences...but that's just one college in a larger university. The physics research is great. Engineering is great.

Thank you for following the facts and putting bais aside and for being brave enough to publish it.

[@sukcho9378]

This was an awesome interview. Can’t wait to watch the entire podcast!

@27:19 "Executive Coaching" sounds a lot like "re-education camp."

[@dannyech5452]

As a black Hispanic cop, who recently retire, it amazes me how the woke culture demonizes the police!! I was no longer Hispanic I was blue because I was a cop!! I am praying for all my brother and sisters in Law Enforcement!! Sad the way this country has fallen!! 🙏🏾 for the USA!!🇺🇸

[@goodolearkygal5746]

In all fairness, cops around here wear blue wedding rings and have blue block tattoos. They see themselves as blue and the rest of us as other

[@dannyech5452]

@@goodolearkygal5746not all of us are that way! Sorry that some cops make you feel that way, but a lot of that is pride in being a cop and not excluding others

We should no longer call them Diplomas - we should call them Receipts.

God bless this man, keep going, keep telling the truth, don’t let them stop you. May god protect you and guide you and I’ll be praying 4 u

Imagine if he went on the view, nobody would believe him, and they would just all gang up on him. How dare you say black people arent mistreated by cops, you must have been co opted by the right, Sonny would say.

[@user-ls2un2ed5v]

The study did find bias. At lower incidents. They skip over that part to have people focus on shootings.

[@sevensages5279]

That's not what the study said ! Use your limited reading skills and try again! You are the prime example of someone who doesn't think for themselves and just takes in info that supports their narrative! The study did find bias!

[@thegraffitiplayground1325]

⁠​⁠@@sevensages5279did the study take into account the ultra high murder rates by that demographic as well or are you just supporting your laughable narrative?

[@whytheface777]

They would call him a white supremacist

[@rzn2258]

Democrats and a lot of the Black Community don't want Racism to go away. Despite them telling you otherwise.

[@willpower3317]

It’s not “a lot”. The number of black people benefiting financially from this mess is infinitesimal. I hate to make an argument from authority but your assertion is just ridiculous.

[@whytheface777]

​​@@willpower3317even if a small amount of black people directly benefit financially from this, that does not mean that a large part of the black people who don't benefit financially, want racism to go away. There are a lot of non-financial benefits to hide behind racism. Not taking accountability for ones actions is a great reason to want racism to stay. He also wasn't making a scientific argument when he said "a lot". To put it in a different way....there are a tiny minority of black people speaking out against this false narrative so that does in fact prove his point

[@JohnCNewJr]

What an enlightening conversation, thank you both.

[@kevinmccabe7263]

Dr. fryer is certainly America's best black professor for a reason. God bless this man, a true academic with unbreakable integrity.

[@gwhizginadoesdiamondpainti419]

I will sit in ANY class this professor teaches! What an unbelievably brilliant man! And yet, so down to earth. A person could learn SO MUCH from him.

[@jackakhan]

I can guarantee, I probably disagree with 90% of the things this guy believes. Also guaranteed, I've got mad respect for him for having some damn ethics! Good on you professor.

[@desmundlighten3603]

What makes you think you disagree ?

[@jackakhan]

@@desmundlighten3603 liberal Harvard professor? Yeah, it's a safe assumption he and I see the world quite differently.....

[@Geewasright]

What makes you think he has ethics? He admitted to S h@rassing his employees. If he weren’t pushing your right wing agenda you’d be calling him a DEI hire like every other bl@ck person who outperformed you.

[@DyneTyrreal]

​@@jackakhanregarding what?

[@critcalreader4160]

Aah, finally, a connection. I heard about Claudine Gay's role in having the most brilliant professor in Harvard fired; and now I've heard something about him and his study (research paper). Thank you.

[@ChaosKnight06]

Great hearing conversations like this

[@beemaningi]

Did PBD stop interviewing guests who disagree w/ him? They do unveil his ignorance: he usually retreats to telling his personal story as a reason everyone should believe what he believes. When that goes nowhere, he insults the guests.

[@geometerfpv2804]

This is a good example of a guest that disagrees with him on many things, and he had plenty of room to speak...

[@kangsun201]

Roland is the type of impressive person that should pop in your mind when you think of an Ivy League school like Harvard. Unfortunately they've gone in a different direction.

[@maximumhexposure1287]

Roland Fryer conducted the experiment, both expecting and wanting the opposite outcome to be true. Yet when his intuition was proved wrong (in the face of immense pressure) he stood behind the actual truth. A truth that helps both communities moving forward. We need more people like Roland Fryer.

[@gloriahovey5601]

Good for you and thanks for your work.

[@user-dd9wo9im6p]

I'm a firm believer that racism was created by politics and is continuously promoted by government that isn't just about blacks and whites. Example is when the British military landed here and started taking the different Indian tribes lands they had no right to do while telling settler's Indians are their enemies, needs to be elemenated or controlled, put in reservations, etc. Forcing their desires and themselves upon people who didn't want it. Sound familiar? Looking at history this method has been used and modified throughout its entirety by ALL who had powers and governments! This is why our forefathers did what they felt would stop this when creating America and many other things they knew about that the people didn't. Ever wonder why they wrote the Constitution the way they did...

[@clifton212]

Is this guy saying his life was in danger due to a paper from Harvard?!?!🧢🧢🧢

[@LionelLordOfTheThundercats]

He has to say that to be a right wing super star.

[@marcusfenix9534]

I'm not sure if he is lying, but I do believe he might have a target on his back for not towing the line. And since he is black, this is especially alarming. Like Malcolm said the biggest threat to the status quo establishment is the free-thinking brother.

[@thenaughtybear]

That dude is lying. Wasn't no one after dude. It makes White people in awe.

[@Hamaschildshields]

@@LionelLordOfTheThundercats You do know blacks and arabs were the original and majority slaveowners in Africa eg Dahomey Kingdom modern day Benin

[@whytheface777]

​@@LionelLordOfTheThundercatssure because it's popular to be a black conservative. Your family will love you so much. The truth scares the liberal elite because they know that if the truth is revealed, their grift, power and control are over

[@Rogers319]

What an amazing dude.

[@goldenboy7819]

Fascinating interview.

[@TheNinjaMarmot]

Seen that Joe Rogan episode, where the researcher was ostracized because she asked questions about trans therapies for children.

[@anthonnybrownnn9760]

Straight bias.smh

😂

[@everythingclub599]

​@@BagpussAyeeePolice Brutality does exist & that's just common sense, even as a black man stopping a car with a black person inside is more scary then a car full of white dudes cause we've been programmed to believe white man has something to loooose but black man will shooot you on the spot so that will make police be more aggressive toward black people so it's even worse for a white officer with the programming of hating blacks..so yes police Brutality does exist toward black man... Use your common sense
