Dr.west is a great voice for the wise and educated hip hop fan,who dont always want to hear shoot'em up bang bang(by the way i love shoot'em up bang bang hip hop).I dig alot of the concepts that he bring forth,"DANCEABLE EDUCATION".This may seem like a new idea but its not,thats the essence of hip hop.From the start HIP HOP was a way for GHETTO YOUTHS to vent and stay away from the streets.Hip hop always had a message in it,it still does but the mainstream,and business side trumped the culture

I wish peple stop disin him he is the greatest mondern & postmondern thinker that GOD made. I have several of his books one called Race Maters another The Cornel West Reader & I have his CD CORNEL WEST & BMWMB Never Forget: A Journey of Revelations. He's is a person that will make you wake the H**l up & take a stand up for human rites, human freedom & human dignity. His words is filed with knowlege of the heart, wisdom of the soul & intellect of the mind. Peple can learn alot from him

Cornel West evokes the black brillance of the past (think of Dubois), the present (himself, Dyson, Angelou and others), and the future (me and the others like the one who posted this video and the others who've left insightful comments).....Peace and Love to you all!!!

Wal-Mart doesn't do anything for any community At all. Other than opening stores in your town and putting all the stores around it out of business. And offering job opportunities that don't pay shit.
