Dope post. Five stars.
James Baldwin......brilliant, intelligent, and courageous!!!!!
Sometimes you wonder if conservatives are trolling humanity. I know it's 2014 and we know that Buckley is an assholefedora, but did people know back then he was a smuck?
doesn't seem like it
you an expert!?
i dont know, & it doesnt concern me.
its whats been reported, like i said i still took the best part & am leaving the rest.
all I see is you disparage the man while at the same time TRYING to compliment him..

that debate is CLASSIC….Buckley was outclassed and outmatched…which is why he lost nearly 4 to 1….
Cambridge Union has had a lot of legendary debates and presentations..it's worth checking out their Youtube channel

if insults are all you can do then you fail to see the point I was making...

Dope. Worthy of watching the whole thing, but I really like the example (33:45) he used about RFK and his statement about "foreseeing of a black president in 40 years". The deep embedded racial supremacy of such a statement is hard to ignore.

actually RFK said that a negro could be President of The United States in the foreseeable future it seems that Baldwin put a number on it..unless kennedy made that statement before with a specific number of years mentioned it seems James Baldwin had a negrodamus moment
at 44:14 when Buckley said "My great-grand parents worked hard too. I don't know anything that's ever been created without the expense of something." I wanted to build a time machine just to slap that sumbitch. Actually there were many other times but that was the main one. But James Baldwin is one of the most eloquent speakers I've ever heard.
his must have been the first STATISTICS argument cacs been using ever since..
while Baldwin clearly won that debate the fact that they even HAD one pisses me off becuz this at a time when the shit was most blatant it could ever be outside of slavery itself...what the fuck point was it for a bunch of eggheads to "debate" whether the "negro problem" is a part of the american dream or not...

Good looking on diggin up the quote, but in case there is any confusion, I remarked on it not because it actually came true, but for Baldwin's subsequent statement on how Negroes in Harlem barbershop found it quite humorous that this cac (RFK) generously allowed if negros continued making progress that they might have a negro president in the foreseeable future.
The irony of this statement coming from a man who might have been become president (if not for a bullet) for no other reason than his last name is pretty incredulous.
yeah i saw it was pointless!
good post
