This is wild reading this, I didn’t know this at all. My Black half of the family never put him on, hell my pops practically outlawed Kenny G. He had my sister and I born to Miles ‘Kind of Blue.’ So many memories of Sunday morning pancakes with Coltrane, Monk, Davis, etc. floating through the air, mixed with the smell…

I haven’t checked the podcast yet, but do you cover the role colonialism and enslavement had to help produce this economic boom? I

To add a little more to what Anne responded, even with the end of “legalized” segregation, discriminatory lending, zoning, and housing practices are still extremely prevalent and have produced the same results as legalized segregation. The nation is currently the most segregated its been since 1968.

Who’s on the committee?

Give in to the power

stop being such snowflake

They could do a series of movies that aren’t tied to the MCU, they should launch a series of “What If” movies...take up different genres and tell different stories with different hero’s without worry of messing up the MCU

Q: What’s wrong with OKC?

Ohh, well it’s hard to tell because you sure seem good at telling the kids to get off your lawn...my bad yo

Yeah, I like to tell the kids to get off my lawn too

I think the intro to genocide is slick, especially as the intro get’s more sinister as it ends and genocide just drops. I love it. I love the transitions and mix of genres. I think this just comes down to a personal feel thing here. Nothing wrong with either of our thoughts.

exactly, I think these same people that are bitching that it ain’t 2001 or Chronic would have blasted him if he tried to emulate either albums sound again. It’s not those albums, as soon as one accepts that then this album is 100x better. It’s a classic.

Most criticism I’ve seen of this album have misplaced it. They wanted Detox, they wanted a sequel to 2001. This isn’t that, as soon as you move on from that the album get’s 100x better. You have to look at it as itself, it’s an evolution with call backs and throwbacks integrated into a modern sound. I think these…

I think you hit it on the head, with your first paragraph. I disagree with the fluidity, but I think most people that have criticism of this album have misplaced it. They wanted Detox, they wanted a sequel to 2001. This isn’t that, as soon as you move on from that the album get’s 100x better. You have to look at it as…

I normally would ignore something so late, but this is hilarious on so many levels...One, that would have been religious based discrimination. Two, no evidence outside the bible that it actually happened. three, Egypt had more of a caste system than slavery. Four, again, no evidence there were actually any Jewish or…

I’m not discounting the traditions Victor speaks of, what I’m saying is that slavery & colonialism (you’re focusing on slavery way too much, as Europe dived into colonialism far deeper than slavery. They’re both part of white supremacy) launched their empires. The way I see it, the budding industrialization and the…

They built their empires off slave labor and colonialism...so how does it not have anything to do with it? They were already empires before democracy. Slave labor and colonialism drove their capitalism, just like America. They ended it sooner, but they extracted a ton of wealth from slavery and kept expanded their…

I’m not sure and I’m not sure it would still exist without white supremacy, as Black slaves and white working poor, along with Native americans were uprising against the ruling class. Maybe they would’ve succeeded, or maybe a different form of oppression would have taken it’s place. But I would say at this point in…

No, not splitting hairs at all because race and culture are two very different things. It’s intellectually dishonest to suggest that they are the same
