How fortune we are to have Chris Hedges back and his first guest, Professor Cornel West! Two of the most enlightened and intelligent men with a moral compass. ❤️ (Kierkegaard!!!) Ralph Waldo Emerson wasn't welcomed back to Harvard for how many years?
Glad to see Hedges back! Dr.West is likewise appreciated and what they say (as far as it goes), alas! remains all too true! BUT...( ! ) We're talking UKRAINE here and beyond "Putin BAD !" I hear (as a great man more than once said) "not a mumblin' word" about "Banderite" capture of the "worthy-victim" poster-folk d'jour and U.S. complicity in, if not downright INSTIGATION OF these blood-soaked proceedings! Putin WAS loudly seeking PEACEFUL reconciliation in the face of the NATO/NAZI alliance snubbing him while constant-bombing EAST UKRAINE ( are they not Ukrainians too? ) to the tune of 14-16,000 DEAD ! "Wuzzupwid-DAT" !? THE SILENCE IS DEAFENING!(the proverbial "Elephant"or in this case "Azof-thug" in the room!) Listening to these two ( not undeservedly, mind you ) congratulating each other on being the "prophetic voices of their generation etc." while reciting basically what amounts to a "greatest hits" reel here all about "fearless testimony speaking truth to power" while tacitly endorcing the propaganda "line" of the "home team" with what amounts to "lies of OMISSION" is VERY disappointing and flirts with hero-deflating tone-deaf rhetoric right up there with Chomsky's " Lock "em up and starve 'em !" screed against the "Vaccine Resistors"! (who further developements have proven to be entirely justified in their "Nurenburg Protocol" authorized resistance by the way !) It's disturbing and "bodes no one no good" in a time when the waters are being EXPERTLY muddied daily and crystal CLARITY is what's called for MORE THAN EVER !
Two of my favorite human beings and most influential teachers. Mad respect and love for both of these extraordinary men. Peace and blessings to everyone up here. ☮️🕊🙏🏼💜
This blahblahblah blahblahblah is finished ... Mainstream media is done with ... What they say and claim makes no difference to reality and how vast majority of people think... Adios enough of this critique of a sick terminal society ...
I hope a copy of these clips is kept offline out of reach of the censors so that they can be rebroadcast/republished elsewhere when they get taken down from this platform.
It is dificult for me to be in comparison to these two Titans of moral philosophy. All I ask is that they take the opportunity to read, if already not, Dr. Jason Hickel in "Less is More" and then redirect aspects of his argument into your philosophy. Thank you.
Brotha Cornel West!!! The most respect. He opened the door for my daughter and I at a hospital in Sacramento the day my brother died. I, being a person of respect for people's privacy, said thank you and told my young child to have a good look at an American, Civil rights icon. I shared his name and made sure that, that moment would ever be forgotten. That moment is part of our family history till this day. Thank you TRNN!!!
Oh my God, Dr. Cornel West is broad as a beast, his love of reading not only books but loving and understanding the authors themselves, his intimacy and passion is overwhelming, such a joy to listen to his words and the emphasis he so wisely uses... no listener could walk away from him without a profound and everlasting sensation that indeed it is worthwhile to be a true human being. Thank God Chris Hedges and Dr. Cornel West are here right now among us.
Dr West seems like the opposite, as light is to dark, of Klaus Schwab and his minion science advisor Yuval Noah Harari and their arrogant godless, souless passion for THEIR intelligent redesign of humanity and the rest of life on Earth from the genetic code, down, using the technocrats in the clouds of Microsoft and IBM. The Final Reich. Forget history, religion and embrace the new religion of $illyCon Valley and ∆avo$ Man to one world, where THEY will own, under THEIR rules, and We the People remaining, own nothing, and boredom, drugged and distracted, amused and busied, in a cell by, in a cell by a cell in our head, spaced.
Congratulations Chris Hedges on the new show. Thank you RNN for having Chris on his own show. We need to have Chris Hedges on social media to show us the way. Keep up the good work guys!!
The world would benefit from an open online course led by Dr West taking up this matter of philosophy with a comprehensive view - from Kierkegaard to Coltrane
I have listened to Dr West many times in the past. This time I was nearly moved to tears. I think it was because it really hit me how genuine he is. Thank you both for all that you've done for the world.
I particularly resonate with Dr. West's words here. The pursuit of a vision of the whole, especially when he so often ties music into almost everything he does. That's the through line for me. It may have been the first experience that I could call truly spiritual in my life. The first revelation. That music ties the soul with the bodily action of the voice and instrumentation that then weaves it's way out into the population. I find myself being partial to the anti-war music of the 60's (Perhaps because my parents were full-on hippie types) but the sounds of groups like: Buffalo Springfield, CCR, CSNY, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Arlo Guthrie, Country Joe Macdonald, and the other "Woodstock" greats that captured those times of both profound love and concern for the average listener coupled with the sense of the injustice of their own country's actions. The sound and feel and memory gets stuck down deep somewhere within your very existence and propels those emotions to the surface to the point where you feel that they want to break out and flow into those around you...even more than a half century later...music as the joining of the soul of humanity to the cosmic vibrations of the universe across both space and time...I really don't know any other way I can describe it...
Ukraine has more sympathy from the U.S. moreso than Afghanistan did, due to the fact that journalism in Iraq and Afghanistan was illegal or prohibited precisely as to NOT Garner sympathy for our "enemies." That is not the case with Ukraine. Not at this date!
What a great interview Chris. Thank you for persevering through the silencing of RT. Thank you for having Dr. Cornel West. You are both national treasures for boldly and consistently speaking truth to power.
Skipped about 25 mainstream news summarations of todays daily reality and had to just type in the real news there my two favorite faces are on the first video back... This is fantastic to see and a great way to go to bed tonight. Great to see Hedges, fighting on, they cant stop truth.
So so glad to see Chris back on with a show. Since RT was attacked and diminished resulting in no more On Contact in all honestly i feel it has left a yawning Void in the counter narrative to the cartoonish Western propaganda.
ThANK YOU.... THANK YOU... FOR ALL YOU BOTH GIVE ..Please keep on keeping on..... and look to the light for guidance.. Blessings and Love to you both ❤️🙏
We the People must stand together for truth, beauty, human rights and the ability of all people to live to their fullest potential whoever and wherever they may be, and Chris Hedges and Cornel West are foremost in this movement! Thank you so much, TRNN, for stepping up and inviting Chris to your network! I have so much respect for all you do!
Two of of, if mot my 2 favorites! I LOVE the solidarity Dr.West shows toward all people, despite the raw deal POC in his generation got. And Hedges … brilliant and genuine.
The ultimate value of these two admirable characters is they are the living embodiment, the exemplars, of the difference between universal WISDOM and narrow-minded BELIEFS. They are the sages of the present moment. The fact that you will rarely hear the, on our "mainstream" media should be a giant "red flag" to us all. TRUTH? You can't handle the truth!
Cornel West is a powerful personality and philosopher of GENUINE weight,, whose wisdom comes out in torrents of fact and whose compassion comes out in sometimes lines of original poetic prose that's very striking... Chomsky and West form an unassailable black and white philosophical front that is ALWAYS moral and always worth listening to...
Dear Honorable Chris and Dr. West, It is a privilege and honor to be alive and to witness yours testimonies for Truth and to high moral character. I appreciate beyond words your courage and actions towards human liberty. Thank You!
A couple of voices screaming out into the wilderness. I love you Chris, as do countless other like-minded souls across the globe. Thank you, Dr. West, for keeping your eye on the prize. I could listen to you guys all day.
It is a pleasure to have your words of wisdom , it also bring comfort to our race, knowing their are true essence of conscientiousness by you and the many many guess that has also express their love of humanity( Dr. Cornell West!!!!!!)the tears running down my face, and the university professor , his books on Mr. Paul Robeson and on W.E.D. Dubois
Thank God Hedges has a show again! Can't think of a more appropriate, informed, honest and hope-inspiring guest than Dr. West. This was beautiful. Have to completely agree with Dr. West on the desperate plight of the Palestinians, who have been neglected and abandoned by a world cowed into submission for fear of being labeled "anti-semitic." International solidarity = let there be peace on earth, and let it begin with ME...☮❤
So glad to see Chris on TRNN! And, so happy that Chris brought Willie King and the Liberators back for his theme song. Keep singing the truth loud Doctor West!!🙏👊✊
Right with you Chris. Dr. West is one of my all time heroes (also). It would be nice to see Dr. West on programs in some regular schedule (if I can add my two cents). I follow you both as much as possible.
This is Good News for those of us who remember Good Friday today and the crucified One who unites with all of the crucified of history as do these two witnesses and prophetic human beings. It is so good to hear these voices today.Makes this a Good Friday act to learn and grow from this conversation.Thank You for this gift.
How fortune we are to have Chris Hedges back and his first guest, Professor Cornel West! Two of the most enlightened and intelligent men with a moral compass. ❤️
(Kierkegaard!!!)
Ralph Waldo Emerson wasn't welcomed back to Harvard for how many years?
Word!
Yes - real moral compasses - rare and precious!
I couldn't agree more!!!
blessed be
Thanks for the inspiration
So glad that The Real News Network picked up Chris Hedges. This man and this circle are national treasures in the USA.
That is wonderful news. Chris Hedges will never sell us out
"NATIONAL TREASURES" should be capitalized when referencing these two "GIFTS FROM GOD" !

@@jeffreydrhodes Hmph ... at least he isn't selling us out to Russia any more, and I can watch him again.
@@KlausJLinke he wasn't selling out? Lol
Did you even see what was talked about in his show there?
Yes! Chris Hedges is back. So happy to see the forces of censorship cannot stop either of these guys for long❤️👏
Everyone can be stopped with enough pressure. Lets not stop this one.
Forces of capitalism*
I am so happy that Chris Hedges got this show on The Real News Network! And what a guest for the episode!
Did you see Cornel’s New School talk?
@@innershifttv not yet, but I got to check it out! Thanks!
So pleased to see Chris Hedges spreading out into other venues, and of course Cornel West too. The more we hear from them, the better.
He had a show here years ago. You can probably find the episodes in a playlist on this channel.
He use to be on the real news like 7 years ago
This must happen. No matter how much censorship they put on Chris Hedges he will always find a place to keep his work in the public.
Two of my favorite human beings and most influential teachers. Mad respect and love for both of these extraordinary men. Peace and blessings to everyone up here. ☮️🕊🙏🏼💜
My sentiments exactly
Damn straight
Amen!
This blahblahblah blahblahblah is finished ... Mainstream media is done with ... What they say and claim makes no difference to reality and how vast majority of people think... Adios enough of this critique of a sick terminal society ...
Word!
We need more from Chris Hedges. So glad to see he is back up and running.
What a gift, Chris with his own show on TRNN. Love it!
I hope a copy of these clips is kept offline out of reach of the censors so that they can be rebroadcast/republished elsewhere when they get taken down from this platform.
Will be following every single day
Thank you for hosting Chris Hedges - one of our few remaining truthful journalists ❤
Two of the most brilliant minds on the planet. I feel privileged.
I agree, both have an innate compassion for humanity and truth.
It is dificult for me to be in comparison to these two Titans of moral philosophy. All I ask is that they take the opportunity to read, if already not, Dr. Jason Hickel in "Less is More" and then redirect aspects of his argument into your philosophy. Thank you.
Lol brilliant....
Thanks The Real News Network for inviting Chris Hedges to move his program to your channel. Excellent interview with Dr. West. Power to the people!
So happy to see Chris Hedges get a new platform. And Cornel West!
Glad to see Chris Hedges again I got worried when TH-cam deleted all of his videos.
Chris Hedge's new platform is SubSTACK I'm happy to say. :-)
Brotha Cornel West!!! The most respect. He opened the door for my daughter and I at a hospital in Sacramento the day my brother died.

When I saw the pic I thought it was that racist guy always on CNN spreading racism
Oops, it is him
I'm so glad Chris found a new home! He's one of the best!! Hope everyone "likes", "shares", and shows support in any way you can.
AMEN!
Dr. Cornel West and Chris Hedges, it doesn’t get better than this! Awestruck. Take a listen
Two good men having a conversation. Thank You, Chris. Thank You, Cornel!
Two of the best thinkers, and men, in America! Thank you, Chris and Cornel! God Bless
I love seeing the joy on Chris' face when he's around Cornel. That connection is all we have.
INSIGHTFUL !
Thanks !
Thank you, and doubtless these are the very ones who would drop what they are doing, and become a disciple of Jesus, the Nazarene immediately.
@@Rickelsonnih AMEN TO THAT!
Congratulations Chris Hedges on the new show. Thank you RNN for having Chris on his own show. We need to have Chris Hedges on social media to show us the way. Keep up the good work guys!!
I was waiting. There were only so many spots that made sense and I'm glad it was the Real News. Good job Max
Dr West and Chris Hedge. Brilliant
I will click yes on any Hedges or Cornel shows before listening. They are that truthful and soul full of facts. Bless them
The world would benefit from an open online course led by Dr West taking up this matter of philosophy with a comprehensive view - from Kierkegaard to Coltrane
Such a fruitful discussion. Thank you, Real News Network, Mr. Hedges, and Dr. West. This type of discussion is so needed right now.
How good it is to listen to Prof West, I feel joy and connection and inspiration. Chris is great but Cornell sees the transcendent.
I have listened to Dr West many times in the past. This time I was nearly moved to tears. I think it was because it really hit me how genuine he is. Thank you both for all that you've done for the world.
Thank you, elder brothers!!! The unvarnished truth is so refreshing!!
100% we need more of this and more cooperation, unionization, and working people coming together to overcome oppression of the oligarchy
@@user-rb7ns9yj5y Taking up our side in the CLASS WAR!!
my true teachers during these years, i hope to always see you on as I can't afford lessons by myself, thank you for sharing your ideas
"This whole planet is the Promised Land for every child, woman and man." We are all sisters and brothers.

He's right
I can get despondent with the crazy war going on, but knowing that these two guys are in the world sure lifts the spirit 👍🙏
Two of our best! Keep on ! Thanks
Yes! Chris Hedges is back and on TRNN and with an amazing interview with Cornel West. Thank you
2 of my most favorite people in the world. integrity to the grave, thats dedication...
Chris and Cornel are two of the most important voices in America today!!! You guys are heroes!!!
YAY .. Christ Hedges back on video…so excited to see his voice back in mainstream media.
I particularly resonate with Dr. West's words here. The pursuit of a vision of the whole, especially when he so often ties music into almost everything he does. That's the through line for me.

Good on Real News Network for giving the unbeatable Chris Hedges a gig!
Exelent reporting like always. And them guest can't be beaten.
Ukraine has more sympathy from the U.S. moreso than Afghanistan did, due to the fact that journalism in Iraq and Afghanistan was illegal or prohibited precisely as to NOT Garner sympathy for our "enemies." That is not the case with Ukraine. Not at this date!
Thank you to the Real News for giving Chris a platform!
It is just a blessing to watch these two giants.
Good to see you back Chris, love when you two get together, it’s always educational and a good time💯
Word!
So happy to see this!!!!!
What a great interview Chris. Thank you for persevering through the silencing of RT. Thank you for having Dr. Cornel West. You are both national treasures for boldly and consistently speaking truth to power.
And.........F..K YT !
It feels that I haven't seen Cornell West for about a year on TH-cam media, much less MSM. Thank you.
Skipped about 25 mainstream news summarations of todays daily reality and had to just type in the real news there my two favorite faces are on the first video back... This is fantastic to see and a great way to go to bed tonight. Great to see Hedges, fighting on, they cant stop truth.
The amount of times Brother West mentions John Coltrane in interviews makes me happy!
I can't thank you, both, enough for what you give me by your efforts.
So so glad to see Chris back on with a show. Since RT was attacked and diminished resulting in no more On Contact in all honestly i feel it has left a yawning Void in the counter narrative to the cartoonish Western propaganda.
Thank you Chris for introducing me for Dr. Cornel West
Thank you both very much!!!
Thank you Chris for bringing Dr West to us. He sees the world as it is with a willingness to break the mirror so we can see freedom.
Boom! Chris is back, baby!!!
ThANK YOU.... THANK YOU... FOR ALL YOU BOTH GIVE ..Please keep on keeping on..... and look to the light for guidance.. Blessings and Love to you both ❤️🙏
Yeeeees!!!!!! I could not be more exited by this. Two great men. Soul. So much soul✌🏻

Right off the bat Chris's show on this network has much better production than Chris's show on RT. Nice to see and well deserved.
Two of my personal heroes right here
I deeply appreciate you both. Thank you.

Chris you have made a profound difference in many people's lives; people you have never met and will never know. We stand with you.
Keep up with your great work! No matter what, we will find you.
Cornel West is a powerful personality and philosopher of GENUINE weight,, whose wisdom comes out in torrents of fact and whose compassion comes out in sometimes lines of original poetic prose that's very striking... Chomsky and West form an unassailable black and white philosophical front that is ALWAYS moral and always worth listening to...

No moral status or consistency hits the nail on the head. Thank you Dr. West
Chris Hedges has a new show?? Thank the gods!! America needs to hear his message.
Better than church. These two are good for the soul.
A couple of voices screaming out into the wilderness. I love you Chris, as do countless other like-minded souls across the globe. Thank you, Dr. West, for keeping your eye on the prize. I could listen to you guys all day.

Two of the greatest truth-tellers of our time. Thank you endlessly. And, of course, for all the work you do. Love you both!
Dr. West, much love and respect.
Mr. Hedges, much love and respect. The RNN seems like a natural fit for you.
Best Easter gift ever. Chris hedges and Dr. Cornel…. Thanks given.
Happy Easter🐣 to all.
Feels like a Sunday service.
Keep on keeping on!
Peace love and solidarity
The two greatest voices of equality and freedom the USA has produced, West and Hedges. Keep up the great work my brothers.
Bless these Godly men. Hope all are having a joyful and encouraging Good Friday.
Bravo Real News Network!!!! I'll be sending a contribution.
So glad to see mr Hedges here
Dr West starts off the interview by telling Chris that he loves him...so great!
This was an awesome Friday surprise!!! Excellent show with excellent commentary, thanks guys!
Wonderful to see Chris Hedges again. His voice is a necessity in these times.
There are a very few theists that I admire and these two gentleman are at the top of my very short list.
I got out of prison 4 days ago and I've missed brothers like cornel west and Chris hedges tremendously. Prolific truth telling giants
Lol, imagine that
So glad to have you back Chris! Thanks brother!
Thank you for keeping educating people 🙏
Thank God Hedges has a show again! Can't think of a more appropriate, informed, honest and hope-inspiring guest than Dr. West. This was beautiful. Have to completely agree with Dr. West on the desperate plight of the Palestinians, who have been neglected and abandoned by a world cowed into submission for fear of being labeled "anti-semitic." International solidarity = let there be peace on earth, and let it begin with ME...☮❤
Two of my favorite brothers! Thank you!
Brother West is a national treasure.
He is...🤍
So glad to see Chris on TRNN! And, so happy that Chris brought Willie King and the Liberators back for his theme song. Keep singing the truth loud Doctor West!!🙏👊✊
Very glad to see these two intellectuals.
Right with you Chris. Dr. West is one of my all time heroes (also). It would be nice to see Dr. West on programs in some regular schedule (if I can add my two cents). I follow you both as much as possible.
These two guys the best Americans of our times. These are the kind of people who should be running this nation.
These ARE the types
Good to see Chris Hedges here. Thanks to Left wing Jay and Silent Bob (aka The Vanguard) for sending me here.
Grateful for Chris Hedges and Real News Network finding each other...a benefit for us all.
Good for you both for standing up for truth and integrity!
That was just so moving to listen to the interaction of those two American Intellectual Icons.
So happy to have Chris Hedges back. His voice and knowledge is too important to not have access to 💚
This is Good News for those of us who remember Good Friday today and the crucified One who unites with all of the crucified of history as do these two witnesses and prophetic human beings.
It is so good to hear these voices today.Makes this a Good Friday act to learn and grow from this conversation.Thank You for this gift.
