Sowell spoken...

Should of been the first Black president.

Thomas Sowell, one of the greatest men to ever walk the earth in the last 100 years.

I wonder how many blacks my age actually have read his works, my father and professors insisted on it. I gained a different sense of everything and a greater sense of knowledge that to this day still makes me think in a rational state that I am constantly and comically ostracized by people who have no clue. I find it amusing at times. I first heard of him in 1980......I was 15, and my father said start reading and learning from this man, you'll be more advanced that any of your friends.....he didn't lie! I continue to listen and learn today from those just like him!

Buckley always seems poshly drunk.

Sowell was ahead of his time. We need him in his prime in today.

I recently discovered Sowell, and he's become my hero. I'm currently reading Basic economics, and have read economic facts and fallacies. I think i'll need to work through his entire library.

A prophet in a strange land. The worst thing that the War on Poverty ever brought to the poor in general and blacks in particular was making it profitable to have children but have no husband or even a man in the home. That has been the bedrock of succeeding generations of increasing ignorance, violence, and criminality. As usual, unanticipated outcomes that turned into an unmitigated disaster.

I LOVE Sowell's academic and social honesty here. "The data doesn't come to mind that readily but I don't recall anything particularly startling in the numbers I went through." Most people, let alone academics, who are in front of a camera and being interviewed would start to bend and expand upon ideas and "numbers" that they did not have such a clear focus of recall on, giving their opinions and most likely even drawing conclusions based upon a lack of memory-knowledge. We need more intellectually honest and ruthlessly rational people like Sowell beating back the emotional and intellectually dishonest commentary that has sprung up so near-completely in not only our academic and media-related discourse but also in our personal everyday conversations about such topics.

It's amazing how Sowell looked so young here. He was 50!

What a great thinker, he makes his explanations so clear that I wonder how I didn't already know it.

Once the likes of Thomas have passed I fear his ilk are in very short supply for the future!

One of the two most important American economists of modern times, the other being Milton Friedman.

Sowell is awesome.

very good speaker too, no umms uhhhhs

Thank you for the "skip to 1:30" disclosure. Extremely considerate.

Your first Thomas Sowell video was the first exposure I had ever had to the man. I am so grateful for that, I have watched and listened and read so much since then. This man is brilliant!

Why dont more people think this way? We could really all get along much better.

Sowell is extremely logical and eloquent, obviously very intellectual but not vain. I believe that's what makes him so great.

He was gorgeous back in the day....his mind is HOT too!🤗

Sociologists would just ignore such data as it wouldn't fit their prejudices.

Oh how I wish I could actually rate this video. This is one of the few I've come across that deserves more than just a mere thumbs up.

what years was this made. this guys foresight is like a laser. I wonder who his counter part would be in our time

Never heard so much sense come out of one mouth. Exceptional!

Cheers for showing this guy off IM

Thomas Sowell is the man. I hope he has a great retirement. But, still comes out once in a blue moon to lecture. I'd pay to see that!

Thomas has a suthing comforting voice/speaking style.

Sowell destroyer.

Sowell is a legend. His fearlessness and the confidence he exudes due to having the facts on his side with little regard for emotional nonsense is compelling. He is also actually very humerus guy too. It feels like these intellectual and fearless power houses are all getting old and dying and nobody is replacing them. Once they are gone the modern replacements will be free to completely rewrite history without opposition which has been their goal for many years. Imagine one of the modern SJW's coming up against Tom Sowell in a debate? They would be destroyed so completely they would be in a safe space colouring with huh puppies and cocoa for months

Love the interviewer, "h-white" and "h-where"!

Thanks for this.. Sowell is truly a very intelligent man.. Both him and Larry Alder are fantastic to listen too.

How was he this woke, this long ago?

Wow his analysis on how non profit institutions can simply discriminate because there’s no harm to their bottom line is brilliant. You can see to this day how easily the elite universities can discriminate Asian students

Sitting 8,000 miles in india I accidentally hit on a link 7 months ago which introduce Thomas Sowell in my life which has never been the same! This man has opened up my brain and broadened my horizons to a never imaginable extent How did USA lost out on this guy???????? What a monumental loss and waste of one of the greatest brains of the 20th and 21st century for America

Thomas Sowell is on a short list for the most brilliant men of the 21st century. It’s a shame that so many of his own people don’t recognize his greatness because they’ve been brain washed. I have a feeling that people will wish they had appreciated him more when he’s gone.

The problem is that most people think their highest attribute is the group they belong to; instead of valuing themselves for the individual they are.

It instructs how much respect you have for him that you simply allow him to 'speak' by playing the interview with no interruptions by yourself.

I'd like to see him debate Joe Biden

I wish we had more talk shows like this, and less 'group of loud people trying to scream over each other'.

dear independent man thank you for high lighting Thomas Sowell. I looked hem up on YouTub, and listen a few of his interviews. I might go out and buy one or tow of his books. thanks

Thank you for sharing this!! Data is paramount .. When making logical conclusions... Impressive...

Thomas Sowell is a genius

Sowell is fantastic! I've been keen on him for quite awhile now, it's awesome that you've featured him in videos here.

15:29 an excellent point

This interview is conducted so differently to anything I've seen in recent times. It's quite refreshing.

I love that point on how American black slaves were kept oppressed by the same means as leftist propose for lifting them out of poverty. That is a dependance is fostered so they rely on the slave master/government for their livelyhood. To be fed and homed etc. And how he follows it up with rags to riches stories do not come from these systems but instead systems where people are self reliant.

when was this discussion held? so civil its beautiful. something about this dudes use of advantages tells me he's economically educated.... what was his class schedule lol

insanity is doing the same thing expecting a different result

Great video thank you!

I miss the red glare cameras use to have in the 80s

Just think, IM, if this intelligent conversation had been continued in "society" from that 40 years ago programme, at all levels - USA/UK for a start would be totally different countries in political discourse, government programmes that actually work, self-empowerment ie take your own choices, responsibility for personal lives, I could go on and on..

it's so frustrating that ideas that have long been discredited re-surge and thrive in a culture that has abolished reason in favour of virtue signalling.

Great channel! 👍🏽

Sowell tells the whole story.

Bloody......Legend!

Two smart guys having a chat about things important. No real spin. Just opinion well presented. Sad that we need to drop back into the past to find this sort of discourse. Thank God for KZfaq... it is a treasure trove if you know what you're after.

Both these guys make me proud to be an American.

I first heard of Sowell through G. Gordon Liddy's radio show about 15 years ago. He's a great, great man.

Despite how articulate and clear Sowell was at the end there, and how obvious he was correct about the market not discriminating and government does, especially when he gave that example of sports and entertainment, i bet the feminist still didnt understand, and would disagree. Even when she has no grounds be it in logic or facts. She would just disagree because thats what she wants to believe. You see it all the time whenever these feminists are challenged on the street or on stage. Facts and logic arent good enough, they have their story and are sticking with it.

I just want to underline this entire interview

Lots to learn from this guy

I've been binge watching hundreds f videos of smart people busting these myths over the last year . But now I know I should've only watched sowell instead

I love Thomas Sowell!

This lady looking like she trynna get mr Rodgers out of the matrix

1:32 Audio begins with Buckley asking Sowell about Anglo-Saxons.

how times have changed. they considered teachers to be listed among the "professionals". cant think of anyone less educated these days than the educator.

Thomas Sowell busting all kinds.... of myths :)

Thomas Sowellwas barely spoken of in my economics studies at college. Marx and the Keynesians were frequently mentioned. Rush Limbaugh had Dr. Walter Williams and Dr. Sowell on his program many times (Dr. Williams as his guest substitute host). And people on the Left call Rush a racist???

The Bobby Mitchell reference was spot on!!!

I wish I heard of this man 40 years ago.

I would say this is true. We have to pick apart also the data to see truly what this means. Depending on ones knowledge and experience you would disagree. Who controls the data and is it for profit.

the beat. goes on...this androids something else

What a brilliant man!

oh snap This man crushes

Why has he not had more influence in the black community.

8:24 buckley gets weird

Thomas Sowell is a terrific person indeed. He can truly understand the world in a very objective manner.

Three wise men... Thomas Sowell for economics, Yaron Brooke for equality and David Horowitz for everything else!!

Learned helplessness is not a service.

total respect to Thomas Sowell he is a great role model to all human beings regardless of race or gender

I want to meet him!

how did i take a class on logic and was not introduce to wonderful American Thinker.... pretty sure candace owens may have mentioned this great American Thinker, so ill give credit to her and her open free thinking mind. not even sure this dude is biased...i mean everyone has/develops bias, but he does a great job at remove it. an American HERO to Model how to challenge thinking.like seroiously imagine this guy as your mentor, talking with this guys while having a beer or lunch...... value that is needed, well articulated, undercelebrated great American.

Where are these shows today? I've seen Friedman in debates like this and I assume they were on TV. What was the deal back then?

Thomas Sowell is the best political philosopher of the last 100 years

This guy is brilliant

I enjoy the videos and agree with what you're doing, but I think there is an important distinction to be made between privilege (a position of power) versus policies that privilege certain groups more than others. The way I see it, everyone is privileged and oppressed to varying degrees in society because this is how power operates. The real question is to what degree one is privileged, to what degree one is oppressed, and to what extent these things bear out on a macro-level. I happen to think white privilege and male privilege exist, just not in the way far-left academics and feminists think it does. This is because privilege in a relatively equal society is context-bound and can't be generalized.

Boom! Love these videos. However, there are various glaring mistakes. For example, the use of "Anglo-Saxon" origin for 'white' Americans is a ridiculous misnomer when discussing ethnicity as it implies purely English or British origin. This is absurd given that America is a country of immigrants from all over the World... If one included other self-identifying caucasian groups e.g. German, Italian, Irish, Polish or French then this would be more representative of 'white' people who call themselves Americans.

HE IS LIKE A SCIENCE GUY JUST THE FACTS FIND THE FACTS REVIEW THE FACTS ANALYZE THE FACT COME TO A CONCLUSION THEN PRESENT THE FACTS AND DEBATE THE OUTCOME WITH ANOTHER WITH THE SAME LEVEL OF STATUS NO ROOM FOR POLITICS.

Genius and a common sense guy

4 generations. That's what it's gonna take.

Are these long clips of him copyrighted? I would imagine so, as he's still alive.

The Data

Dr. Thomas Sowell US Marine Corps!

The conservation ,reclamation ,rural electrification as well as the Agricultural Adjustment Act and minimum wage laws effected blacks disproportionately.

Thomas Sowell = Red Pill

WOWW

21:05 Deal with it. *snoop dog music*

this man who's most calculation is of super conductor and I wish , well he had it to change owe world

Thomas Sowel is the man
