Thomas Sowell vs Trevor Noah on Slavery and Reparations

Рет қаралды 733,831

3 жыл бұрын

In this video Trevor Noah makes the case for reparations for blacks in America. As always, the unspoken narrative is that of perpetual black oppression and white victimization. It is the siren’s call of victimhood and powerlessness. Thomas Sowell provides an alternatives perspective, and illustrates that the habits and work ethic that have worked for some groups can work for all.

I'm a black man who wanted to be a pilot. I went to the Air Force Academy, but wasn't medically qualified to fly at the time. Instead, I took jobs and assignments nobody else wanted for about 7 years and kept pestering doctors about the medical standards, and I just found out that I'm going to pilot training this year. I had multiple friends, mentors, and leaders that helped me make it happen. Some were white, some were black, and some were neither. I'm making my dreams happen because I never gave up and accepted the help that was offered to me, no matter what the person offering looked like.

It’s weird how a black man from another country self described as growing up poor and underprivileged who now has a TV show with 100’s of viewers with a Net worth of $16 million is asking for reparations for those that have the same opportunities as he did. It’s basically a rich guy asking for others to give money to those that have chosen to be lazy and not put forth effort to make something of themselves. Then blaming it on, in the famous words of Ilion Omar, “some people did something” hundreds of years ago.

Well, jokes or no jokes, Trevor Noah is serious about his position on these issues. He's made that clear. Now if he is choosing to use his platform and it's reach to pander and play the minstrel, that's on him. He's choosing to be that guy and it's up to you whether you feel it hurts or helps. But if you do choose to use your platform and voice to argue points of race from either the liberal or conservative, black or white viewpoint...expect to get your beliefs/thoughts stacked up to contrary opinions from any degree of opponent. I didn't take Trevor Noah to be joking or pandering about his stance on issues of reparations,slavery, white privilege etc. Seems pretty serious to me. If you're arguing that he's not at the level of Thomas Sowells wisdom,experience,insight or whatever, you may be right. But like any engaging entity albeit a boxer, wrestler, fighter, or debater, if you find your opinions to be worthy enough to broadcast them to millions, expect your dogmas to be challenged by anyone,everyone , and the best. That's all that was taking place here.

@johnvisic75 Жыл бұрын

@@JACK-OMARI here's a question. Let's say the government gives reparations. Then who will be entitled to those reparations? So if I'm a white person with let's say 15 great great grandparents who are white and 1 great great grandparent who was a black slave then do I automatically obtain the reparations? How white looking do I need to be or how many black ancestors do I need to still confirm my right to reparations? What percentage of a particular racial background do I require to meet the threshold? Is there even a threshold? We just give the money etc to anyone with even one a black ancestor who was proven to be a slave? Conversely I look black but half my great great great grandparents were slaves and the other half of my great great great grandparents were in fact slave owners? Do I get the money? Should the descendants of slave owners benefit? Start playing with the percentages. Also consider this example: I'm black and my ancestors came from Haiti or Jamaica but my family has lived in New York since the 1820s. However my family were slaves in Jamaica and Haiti in the 1700s. I have no whites in my family. Do I get the reparations or miss out because that slavery wasn't in the USA even though my family have been US citizens for 200 years? So how inclusive or exclusive are the reparations and finding the borderline becomes an exercise in racially profiling every American. And having them prove their exact ancestry could be difficult, because if you cannot exactly prove it then you might be missing out on reparations to which you are entitled. It would become a gold mine for lawyers. Then we come down to how much money is owed. If I had just 1 ancestor who was a slave in South Carolina the 1860s do I get the same amount as someone with 15 ancestors who were slaves in 1863? Let's carry that further: I have 15 slave ancestors from South Carolina from the 1760s (immediately before the USA existed), but no slave ancestors after the creation of the USA. Am I still entitled to reparations? But the guy next to me had 1 slave ancestor in 1863 only. Yet he's entitled to full reparations? So again what's the time threshold. Do we cut it off at 1776 for example. What's fair? There are many problematic examples and many generations after the fact it becomes an exercise that sounds great as a speech but difficult in its practicality.

8:59 is weird a South African like him mentions land knowing the sad experience in Zimbabwe, or here in Peru. The land is taken away from the owners under the excuse that it was land taken by force, and given "back" to the workers. The workers don't know how to use it, and in some cases just get in debt to get cars instead of maintaining the tools and machines; then today those lands have lost their value and if they aren't abandoned the people there barely can survive producing for themselves. Meanwhile the former owners are in the city are progressing with a profession. The land by itself has no value, so by itself is not stolen wealth, it doesn't contribute to anything.

A little story. Trevor was born in Joburg in 1984, 19 days after I was - in a suburb not far from Joburg. He is 'coloured', I am white. He grew up for a time in Soweto, the largest black township in the country. A far cry from the average family home I did. Then my parents divorced at age 5. We then lived in small, run down homes, repeatedly moving due to crime and my mother's need for work as my father didn't often pay maintenance for us. I went to school in whatever school was local. I would share a bath with my two younger siblings that was a few inches deep because the hot water came from the kettle. We only got second hand clothes and toys. Whilst Trevor was in Soweto his quality of life would likely have been worse than mine. Then he went to a private Roman Catholic high school. I did not. From that point on he went on to radio, TV....and the rest is history. I work in a factory in the UK, am now married and earn a living wage. So tell me. Where is the privilege? By his logic I should have done far better than him due to my 'whiteness', and he should not have had the success he has had - especially with us both born in SA. My mother was passed by on many jobs because of affirmative action - again, being white in this instance was a hindrance, not a privilege. I'll tell you were it is. Economic privilege. His father evidently paid for his schooling, which raises him up out of poverty and was the springboard to his success. And I am pleased for him. My family never had money and so we were denied many such privileges - that's also fine. He paints this picture that racism is so prevalent that blacks are always poor and white always prosper. And his argument for when this is reversed is that 'you whites still have privilege you just don't know it'. Utter nonsense. He has indeed forgotten his roots. His has chosen to forget that he got into a private school that, were it riven with racism, would not have allowed him in, and has evidently chosen to ignore that while racism was and is still a substantial part of daily life in SA, there are and were, many many blacks, whites, coloured, Chinese, Indian etc etc in SA who were good people and judged others by their character. He has fallen far from his roots, greased with wealth and submerged in leftist ideology that is, pardon the phrase, very black and white. From one South African to another, I am disappointed in him. He could have been such a positive beacon for true progress. He is anything but.

Who shared in 200M acres of Homestead land to get a start in life? Who got our "40 Acres & a Mule"? Who received our 1M Blacks-owned farms from Reconstruction to the 1980s? Who got home mortgage assistance to live in the new suburbs with well-equipped schools, banks, shopping centers, decent public transportation, recreation centers/playing fields/swimming pools, and other amenities, or GI BILL college scholarships, or minimum wages, social security and unemployment compensation under FDR? We could have used that land to generate household wealth to weather storms, bequeath to future generations, etc. How is it that households headed by White high school dropouts have an average household net worth 25% more than ones headed by Black college graduates? Economics shows we are the country's permanent bottom-caste by design, despite having built its stealth economics with our free and low wage labor. Many of YOU PEOPLE suggest we "pull ourselves up from our bootstrap," and believe WE have the "complexion for the protection."

The point of minority assistance programs is / should be to widen the window of people who can contribute meaningfully to society. If an otherwise talented person is kept out of the skilled labor force because of his race or because of poor parents or because he doesn't have a social network or role models, we all lose out on the work that he could have done over his lifetime. This is even more true for people with more potential. Some of them do succeed despite the odds, but if more of them succeeded, we'd all benefit.

I was homeless also for 5 years but I graduated. College!? Ha!! I had to survive! So i went to work in a car wash waiting for some rich folk to notice how hard I worked! Bingo! Getting groceries one night and sure enough the manager there had noticed and I started as a bagger and ended as a Regional HR Director for 22 yrs with that company. No help from anyone, section 8 or food stamps! I didn't even know what it was. You can do anything you set your mind to with the Grace of God at your back! I went from homeless, having mice in my hair at night, eating rattlesnake and cactus, green breaking Mustangs and taking a hobo shower in the sinks of gas stations to living in a half million dollar home in Foothills!! Stop playing oh po' pitiful me, get on your knees and pray and envision the life to come! Was it perfect and free of pain and misery? Oh heck no, but I did it! God bless y'all!

Can you acknowledge that damage was done to Black Americans, not just by slavery alone, but through Jim Crow, redlining, the prison industrial system, and miseducation? And those latter things are not 100 years ago. This is within our parents and grandparents lifetime. And the residual damage that was done even then, is still felt this present day. If you can acknowledge that there was damage done to black people in America, then all black people are asking for is reparative compensation. It's amazing how it's easier for people to except native Americans receiving reparations, or the Japanese receiving reparations, or America paying reparations to Israel, which what happened to Israel, America had nothing to do with it. But billions of dollars is sent to Israel each year. However, when it comes to black people receiving reparations, all of a sudden it's a problem. But yet it's common knowledge that black people suffered terribly in America. And let's not forget that America promised black people reparations after reconstruction, but reneged on that promise. So If you can acknowledge these truths, then this is why black people are owed reparations here in America.
