Incredibly honored to have taken a class with him at Columbia. Perhaps my best class to date. It was a refreshing time away from accounts, economics and international relations.

stimulating talk. Weren't muslim philosophers, even those in Timbuktu, largely working on Greek philosophy?

Hegel, Levinas, Husserls should be banished as thinkers...Hegel has a minus aggravating because of his deficiencies in geography....I believe we need to redefine who should be considered a worthy philosopher. A philosopher who defends racism, excludes a large part of humanity from humanity is not worthy of being called as such. We can continue to study these pseudo philosophers from a historical point of view with the aim of understanding the evils of the past and preventing their nonsense from being repeated again in the contemporary or future world.
