www.vladtv.com - During a visit to Oxford University in early March, rapper Kanye West gave a lecture to the students in attendance and stated his belief that "classism is the new racism." Immortal Technique believes that though the two are connected, being prejudice towards those in a particular social class is just a facilitator of racism. "Classism needs racism to act as the forefront for it," the rapper/activist tells VladTV.
In this clip Immortal Technique also touches on the topic of reverse-racism. "I don't believe in reverse-racism, I believe everybody can be racist. The difference is this: Have you ever had to justify your humanity?" he asks. "Can someone discriminate against you and yet have you had to justify yourself as a human being?" He then goes on to point out instances where particular groups have dehumanized others in our world's history.
Watch on as he discusses racism and the flawed ideas of Nazism above.

Classism is far more important than racism. It's a way bigger deal. That's why rich Nigerians came home here and thrive. And that's why Japanese immigrants can have all the success in the world here. Or indian DRs. Classism is the real issue. It's just that class is linked to race cuz of how historically racist America is/was. But to think that race is more important than class gives rise to the tokenism argument. That's what Dennis Prager and Ben Shapiro use to "debunk" racism. But classism explains why most real African Americans are poor. Nigerian Americans who come from generational wealth who move here for their career are not African Americans. They're just black Nigerian Americans. Nothing wrong with that. But they don't represent the shared experience with our black population.

+TheVigilantetv1 Never for once thought that maybe 'those' Latinos maybe confused, angry, poor, rich, uneducated, ignorant, and therefore, not understand the basis of class struggles? When you're poor and Latino, or white, or black, we tend to act in violence in each other because that's what poverty breeds: ignorance. The poor are the least conscious, we're unaware of our own struggles, hence why some Hispanics call blacks the n word.

We've arrived from every corner of the planet to this nation to seek the fulfillment of a promise of America. We were promised a better life in our home countries, where we were told that privatizing water and electricity will make things run more efficiently. Instead the quality remained almost the same and the price was increased until it became an unaffordable luxury. Some corporations are more efficient than government, but their motivation is not the health or the well-being of the people; it's only about profit. Everything else-their image, their human resources, their public relations-only exist to protect the reality behind it. Once upon a time we were told that nationalization would prevent growth by limiting competition, that our countries were nothing without the companies that invested in us, and so they privatized everything. Everything in our country was owned by people that had no connection to our culture, by those who never had our interests at heart. They didn't care about our survival or well-being-they just wanted to turn a profit by raping our land, by exploiting our people, our industry and our resources. They took everything we built and made it theirs, first by creating racism to justify slavery, building the capital for capitalism, and then when they gave us what they call liberty, everything we had was still owned by them. Our governments told us that socialism was the real enemy, and that we would have freedom, but the foreign powers and corporations were the ones with real freedom, the freedom to take all the wealth generated by our work and our land and gave us only a small percentage of the scraps from the table. Their lust for power and their greed drove them to betray not only us but themselves and the word of their own God so next time anyone wants to comment educate yourselves on who isn’t really supposed to be here dumb fucks ..a country without any real culture just customs lmao that’s why everything is falling apart day to day ..angry because you realize the the color of you skin soon makes you feel invisible…viva la revolution bitchs 🎉

Actually it was codified into law-the Red Scare along with red lining and many violent policies targeted Russians, socialists, the Irish, Italians, Catholics, Greeks-and the KKK at its height targeted all these groups along with Jews, Latinos and (obviously) Black people. But the deeper question is-if classism is behind racism, then why would classism not apply itself toward poor whites as it would against any other race or ethnicity? That’s what capitalism is-just because the majority of wealthy people by proportion are white means nothing to whites at the socioeconomic bottom.

In the beginning this guy sounded genuine about his topics and gave a lot of respect in his interviews but now he seems to be coming off as mr know it all. He cut of vlad when he mention bill o Riley who to me is Americas poster boy for he's not racist he's just telling the truth type of guy. Bill damn near pushes every button. His family even said he was a women beater but no one isn't even talking about it anymore. Donald trump should loose billions for all the shit he has been saying about Mexicans. It just shows you who really run this country. The media just focuses on black peoples mistakes.
