I love this interview. Because my family has operated an African-centered school for 27 years now, we have actualized teaching this information. It is exactly what our children need to know, and their parents learn vicariously through our curriculum. This is not for dominance, but to ensure that we create an equitable future.
We are not African though.
I applaud your teams' efforts in conducting Afro-Centric training.
I'm seeking an outlet for the info and observations I have obtained over the years to help the up and coming navigate the various socio-political landscapes/mines.
Question...In what ways are the students expected to use the Afro-Centric knowledge they have attained to solve problems within the concept called "America" or on a global scale?
Thanks.
I absolutely love his answer of what it means to be black in America. Hearing it immediately made me really proud and it honored our ancestors sacrifices. Thank you. Please put his analogy on a separate clip and put it out there to the world for all of us to reflect on our accomplishments in the same way. In other words, God has been with us from day one of slavery until now and he has supernaturally endowed us all.🎉
Our history didn't begin with slavery of our 1619 ancestors. Our history is literally BIBLE HISTORY. But as GOD SAID, "my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge." It's really sad that at least BLACK PEOPLE won't even check it out.😕
@@mattiepayne5326 OH Mattie but I do know. I've been researching biblical and ancient black history for quite sometime. I know exactly who we are in the bible, as well as; our creation of every civilization in the world, our Kings, Queens, our inventions and discoveries, our prowess on the battlefield before their were guns and rifles, that was the only way they could defeat us and our Pharaoh's, not to mention the creation of our own African civilizations to include Egypt that every scholarly European came to Kemet to learn from our priests afterwhich once they got what they wanted; lied and claimed the knowledge they received, as their own. I can go on and on. But I'm not going to just stop at biblical and ancient times, we modern descendants who carry the blood of the Egyptians in us and I'm specifically speaking of the African American also have the same cranium as the Egyptians recently discovered via 750 Egyptian skulls, which gives us our ability to think and function at high levels of intelligence and creativity as so eloquently stated by this man. It was the way he phrased our accomplishments and all that we have achieved since our forefathers were captured over 400 years ago. In a very short period of time we also like our ancient forefathers created this civilization called America from the backs of our ancestors and the brains of their descendants which really is our land to begin with because we were already here before the Europeans and Native Americans ever arrived. I like the idea of celebrating who we are and what we've created in both old and new lands. If black people left this country enmass today or tomorrow, this society would crumble and the most intelligent Europeans already know that, the lesser intelligent, ignorant and uninformed does notbecause they've been lied to about everything just as they have hidden our identity and our true history from us. But no more!
Love Michael Harriot. I came here because I'm reading Black AF and wanted to hear him talk about it.
Easily the best book I read in 2023!
@ShoTon1 top 10 on Goodreads for History & Biography. Listed as one of the best books of 2023 on Amazon…..
New to me my children turned me on to him.
@ShoTon1read it/listen and learn. I’ll even buy you a copy!!
@ShoTon1read/listen to it and unlearn the lies. I’ll buy it for you.
Toure and Michael,
This was so good and uplifting of a conversation. Kudos my brothers.

I truly enjoyed this was a high level conversation. Thank you! ❤🖤💚
I could listen to them all day! ✊🏾
I love Michael Harriot!!!
Thank you so much! Totally enjoyed it! Big Love Michael Harriot !
Such an awesome interview. We read the book in our book club Nosh & Notes Reading club - Sisters Who Read! What was the documentary about extension you mentioned.

Amazing discussion 👍🏾🇺🇲
Wow my brother.as a caribbean diaspora , i always find it difficult to understand how black Americans accomplish so much in such a short time under such difficult conditions
There are still washcloths in hotel rooms because when people have activities that are common to hotel rooms, the use of a washcloth is vital. Could it be that only Black Americans understand cleanliness?
Great Conversation. Informative ❤
Michael Harriott I would hope to one day see you Live! Love the way you keep it 💯💯💯💯
17:00 oppression tactics are different for each generation. Go on w/your bad self; insightful, brilliant.
First several minutes of this, and the guest is already dropping knowledge bombs.
Know thy enemy, and know that they are your enemy.
Treat yourself to his book. So much knowledge dropped in every chapter
Greattt interview. Thank you
@ 2:00 🤔

Brothee Michael u wrote a dope AF book! Loved this interview Touré.
Great episode. Thanks for sharing
💯 💯 💯 I appreciate this interview immensely. Thx.
Great discussion !
LMMFAO!!!! Mike, is Wild!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Very Informative
This show was dope!! 👏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽✨️✨️✨️♾️
Think about it the first people had to overcome the elements by building shelter. They had to overcome the dark by inventing fire. They had to overcome the ferocity of the animals that wanted to eat them. They had to overcome communication barriers by inventing written as well as oral language. The first met these challenges and many more, and "We are Still HERE."
This was a beautiful conversation, well interview. Thank you.
Love this conversation!!
Toure aray talking about the real things!!!! Love the consistency.... I know you from the Brooklyn days..
I have major family history in Charleston SC. I look forward to purchasing Michael's book.
Cell phones and social media....developed to detect the development of the 21st century "Forest Joe", BEFORE the 21st century Forest Joe can become galvanized.
"Just select "I accept" to open the fun and entertainment."👍🏾
We just wasn't as wicked as them we all born sinners but they took theirs to the full maximum ability as we say a whole nother level "WNL"💯 and still doing it.
Black AF history is a great book. I enjoyed reading it.
Thank you for sharing this conversation with Micheal Harriot. He is one of my favorite historians.
First time I've listened to your show, thanks for the information very informative. ❤
Michael is my new hero, please don’t disappoint and become Cosby and Combs…❤
But why would he say we had nothing, no language.
We had many languages and we had thousands of yrs of past down experience on how to live on the planet before colonization.
Yes, our story is a very great story, but we had greater stories before we were colonized. We just had to still perform under the worst conditions and restrictions.
When he said Whyte people don't know, that's a fact. They don't feel like we can teach them anything, so how would they actually know about us to any great extent. There ignorance to do much about this country and the things that transpired makes them very dangerous to us to a fault..
It's just sad on both ends. I teach all the time how whyt people have never been treated for healing from all they have done, and blaq people haven't been treated for all we have been thru.
Healing from both ends is a significant key
Everyone will have time to heal while the checks go out. damnit
I will be purchasing and read Michael book and also listen to his podcast!!
excellent read!
great research & information!
Colorfully told!
Great cast! 🎉
I love, luv, loves his definition of being black 🤎 🖤. Black is beautiful. Black is strong. Black is struggle. And black is survival. We continue to keep on keeping on! We are are still here 💯😎
And that's exactly why they don't want to tell our History, exactly
All facts, I recall saying something about Anglo-Saxons in a classroom and we are all adults and the caucasian woman said " what is that " and that day I got a hint that a lot of them are unaware
That's how we ate rice in my household. Shit was rockin. Brown rice properly done wit some BUTTAONNATBICH!!!😮😮😋😋😋
One could argue that "outlawing" behavior has contributed to the overtness of said behavior and in effect exponentially empowered it.
Let's do it! Study. "White People", the Founders, Civil War which about the extent and reach of the federal government over states rights, expansion of slavery ( not the end of slavery), keeping wages low for White workers with free labor. It was about States rights and slavery was the heart of the debate. We must focus on the economic role of slavery and the long term negative impact on White labor, employment. Why didn't they want slaves to learn to read, what was the real threat. Why were they making public substandard school systems verses higher standard and funded public schools for Whites. Why were Unions denying membership to "Black People". Why did Whites think they are a superior people over non Whites ( European Descent)? Why is White culture a culture of dominance instead equal oppotunity where everybody can flourish and reach their highest potential?
How The South Won The Civil War - great explanation of how the wyte wealthy male power structure going unpunished from their treasonous crimes in the civil war allowed them to continue fighting for wyte supremacy to this day!
read: Drumpf & FOX & that fake-ness...
🔥
14:03 Slave ships did come to Alabama though, to areas like Mobile and upwards to at least Montgomery. The last of those ships was the Clotilda, which was brought into Mobile in 1860 and destroyed to hide the evidence of international slave trading, which was ruled illegal by 1808.
That said, I appreciate the knowledge of how much of an impact South Carolina made on Black America.
If I'm not mistaken there is a documentary of this ship being found in the city that blacks built who were the last batch of slaves brought over from Africa. They found that ship and pulled it from the water. I think it ended up in some museum. You should be able to look the documentary up on TH-cam maybe using the name of the ship.
Great convo
Love this convo and I will be getting the book but wasn’t it called the Gold Coast because Ghana had a lot of actual gold. Also the reason most another cultures season their food isn’t because it was any worse in quality than white people food.
No, Europeans didn't season their food well until after the colonization campaigns by the royals brought spices & herbs to Europe that folks in India, Africa & Asia had been using for thousands of years. The English bragged that "The sun never sets on the British empire" but whytefolk's lack of creativity with their food is evident from the fact that despite colonialism, the Brits didn't have sense enough to incorporate all those foreign spices into British cuisine. English food was bland as hell until Indians & Jamaicans started coming there in the 1950s.
Help I can’t find the Draped to Maniacs podcast
“YTP people are unaccustomed to being told they are wrong.” Is that true for their culture or is that more they are unaccustomed to a black person telling them their wrong? If it’s just ytp, no minority dynamic is that statement true?
Both are true. They don't like to be told They are wrong and they definitely and especially don't want Black people telling them they are wrong. Example: A white executive hires a dump white person that can't do the job. Instead of saying I was wrong in hiring you, they try and find somewhere else to place this person. Now said white executive hires and black person who makes a mistake or can't do the work. He/ she will be fired for lying on their resume instead of the executive had hired the wrong person. Hope that makes it clearer. Thank you for playing. Peace.

Michael Harriot is so damn PHYNE!!!
❤ Being Negus, what does that mean to you? And Alkebulan (our homeland)?
So insightful, so delightful! - from an old white woman who uses spices AND washcloths, every day!
Spot on summary of white American cuisine tho🤣. A worthy study for a whitethropologist!
there are exceptions to rules right?
There were already black people here in America who knew how to farm and herd cattle. We are not all from AFRICA!!!!
First, humans on earth were from Africa!😂
Ok we've been here and everywhere else. Technically we're all from Africa. So what's your point bc at some point slavery racism and colonization had a huge effect on this world.
OK…..But a large portion is. Are you proud of that?
I was at a point before hearing this brother and will get his work...that Europeans went to Melination with a shopping list...
Black defined America so don't Get it Twisted!
Spades? Bid Whist is the game of US! Yes, communication is key, but Trash Talking is required.
Excellent conversation.
What’s the name of his podcast? I can’t seem to find it.
our story sounds pretty biblical....greatest story ever told. who knew???
I knew that he was going to bring up washcloth as soon as he was asked about what else he understands about white people
This part 25:24
💜👍🏾
Wow. Why did he have to hate on scones. Scones are bisquits with dried fruit in them. They are delicious!
Fat deal...we're all concerned!!
Talking about food, the Moors (African) conquered France, Italy, and Spain (ruled for 800 years).🎉
Funny how it’s cool stating this but this guy just threw shade about “barbarism “ in Germanic tribes 39:42 y’all clearly aren’t aware that Europeans are multi shades white to very tan/ brown .
@@elleelushSo your actually saying that Europeans came from POC but you just lighter shade and those Europeans that can look tan naturally have more melanin from ( POC) than other other Europeans 🤷🏽♂️
He is lying to any fool that will believe him. Dont be a fool
@@bradlogan7007 yep seems so doesnt it
@@jessicajaerosenbaum115 who is the lying fool you refer to on this comment. Just curious
I do so miss Michael Harriot's mailbag.
"Many "Black" people are taught about the Skinarian experiments conducted by B.F. Skinner, a psychologist who studied the behaviors of rats after being subjected to environmental changes.
This "education" would lead "Black" people to place themselves in the position of the person manipulating the experiment and observing the behaviors, but never influences them to accept that they are actually the rats being observed."
-Amos N. Wilson
He said, " There's no such thing as black privilege" from a black man? and why do we need to change how we are for anyone, especially our oppressors.
Opening statements facts learn it from the core of the issue the main sources who better or what better way to learn than from who it was fabricated by
What does AF stand for?
As Fuck.
well it shows the quality of the person and the book. Little obnoxious school children type it in texts it means as fuck. Sounds like someone to rely on for an accurate history
A predeliction for profane iconoclasm has nothing to do with his intellect, historical veracity and due diligence in research. I mean, have you never popped or thought a curse word in church? Doesn't mean you're not sincere in being there.
"Always Fruitful"
And Fundamental
Who is the us???12:22-12:24
I don't understand why curse words, or abbreviations for curse words, are found in so many, otherwise, intelligent posts here on yt. And, I say this with all due respect. At least, out of self respect, during African American History Month, i wish all "Black" youtubers could call a moratorium on posting content that includes filthy words. Use of curse words is a show of self disrespect and it shows disrespect for others who look like us. And, imho, it promotes white supremacy. Yes, to show disrespect for yourself and other AAs furthers the racist agenda. You may have to read up on the late Dr. Frances Cress Welsing if you don't get what i mean. Thank you for reading.
The phrasing of your comment indicates a colonized mind. You should not be so emotionally imbalanced as to get hung up on colloquialisms. Ask yourself what are "filthy words", what makes them "filthy"? What is the difference between cursing someone and cussing. You should then study the history of the word vulgar and how it relates to class and religion. It would also be helpful to study etymology and history.
Harriet Tubman was helped by Our Creator, God, Master of the Universe, whatever you want to call the power that guided and strengthened her.
@@PaTxVideographer many were freed by her, hundreds. She was known to have great faith in our Creator. Some wud not follow her because of a lack of faith (belief)
@@PaTxVideographer Your reply speaks volumes
@@PaTxVideographer I don't understand everything. I don't understand for instance how the sun comes up every morning, seasons change or the process of how a sperm and an egg develop intellect and most often a perfect infant, who grows into an adult. I do know there is an Intelligence much greater than mine that is responsible for the universe and all that's in it. I do know what you believe determines your life to a very great degree.. Prayer is a form a meditation, what you meditate on you come to believe and what you believe becomes a reality in your life or the lives of others in your realm most often. We did become free in the land of our slavery, the descendants of slaves have power that our ancestors prayed for. I don't believe the Intelligence is a big man in the sky with blonde hair; but rather the Intelligence is a Spirit and its the spirit that we operate in that determines what happens in our lives. Harriet had great belief or else she could not have done what she did.
@@PaTxVideographer I guess they didn't "believe" they could make it and fear kept them from freedom. Harriet believed she could and she did. Some people would rather be dead than a slave. I guess that's what Harriet felt.
@@PaTxVideographer If you believed that slavery was your best shot, then you remained a slave until someone else set you free.
You mentioned nothing about the Bacon Rebellion 1600s. Indigenous people have been here a min. 60,000 years. Olmec is us.
Your statement is not a foregone conclusion. It has not been 100% proven that you all occupied this space first. There are research and studies that go back and forth cancelling one prediction over the other.
There was no cotton or rice or sugar or salt list goes on. But hated for black people is
So what happened when you went home and told your parents?
Some parents would punish you again, the same way.
@@IWILLgopostalHis parents didn’t punish him. His main teacher “educated” him and I’m sure explained to his parents, who didn’t know the rules of the racist game either.
FACT! You have to study the architects of racism.
Well news flash go holler at the dynasty or how bout the Egyptians everyone every race has been enslaved everyone’s spread as far as they had to to harvest and survive
@@elleelushshhhhh...
Do more reading of facts kid...
Damn... Toure don't know how to play spades. School him, Michael...
How well did this book do? Because NO ONE talks about it 😂
FLOP book from a woke Robin DiAngelo type
There’s no records that she went back for a whole bunch of people
There is what books u reading
Blah hlah blah clickbait. I learned nothing about Y people I didnt already know. Next....
They can't find one slave ship we were here before the Europeans 😊
They have found ships. There's documentation of actual ships.
Oh god. The level is grave, misinformation about history in this interview is baffling..
There was no cotton in Europe? That’s the most ignorant thing I’ve ever heard. All this guy needs to do is study some really basic history to know of this crap oozing out of his mouth is false.
Cotton isn't native to Europe, neither is rice... Greece has grown cotton for a long time, but it was a subject of the Ottoman Empire for over 500 years, and were not allowed to broker independent trade deals with other states. The Ottomans were Christian Europe's biggest adversary, actually one of the reasons cotton cultivation exploded in the Americas in the 18th-19th century was so that Europe could wean itself off of Ottoman cotton exports.
It looks you need to educate yourself too my man, even if you are predisposed to disagree with what someone is saying, you are really depriving yourself of an opportunity to expand your knowledge and grow as a person by coming to a video like this and not really trying to listen.
MHarriot has not a damn thing new to tell. Whats up.
Lost me on blm equating
Bye boy
@@willgetbettereventually124 blm is not your friend. They represent everything which will make you look foolish and is not good for you.
This is all pure nonsense!
This Michael fellow has been following my principles for a while now. 😊 Nice to see when my Black Folk agree with me.
I can't believe there's another Black Man that actually understands whyteness nearly on a level of mine! I wonder if he's aware that they are *literal neanderthal descendants* and _that_ is where this ALL comes from.
I'm at 38:24 right now when I paused this, and I'm wondering if he has similar feelings to mine about the whyte idea of "Give me 'liberty' or give me death" that they espouse. See, what they're saying is:
_"I'm going to do whatever the hell I want, and the _*_only_*_ way you are going to stop me is by _*_killing me."_*
Now, I don't think that's a very intelligent way of making friends on a planet. But what do I know, right? I'm just a n***er...
I tried to begin r/TheAggressiveMovement, but it was shut down.
If I remain in murriKKKa by the time it begins, I will gladly be a general in the race war these cave-dwellers want to start. I'd be interested in talking to this guest, and will be looking him up to contact, & bounce ideas off of, and possibly coordinate solutions to socio-problems with. It's pretty funny because I lived a similar, but different-end-of-the-spectrum sort of life. I grew up around [too many] whytes and had to be a Blackologist in my late teens and 20s. I feel I'm all the better for it because there are things this brother would say, that I've heard from people in my Black neighborhood, which would fascinate me. Almost make me feel sorry for my people that they don't always read between the lines when it comes to these troglodytes.
Anyway, really appreciate this podcast. Will be doing what I can to promote it. It deserves much recognition.
