Glenn Loury is brilliant... hard to get enough of him with all that's going on in the world these days.
Name one thing he's accomplished with all his endless talking? Ya wanna solve problems or pretend to?
Thomas Sowell is a fraud and no amount of kissing his ass is gonna change that:

And Glenn Loury doesn't have the guts to abide by his own rules:

@@jg5555 Stirring defense. Good day.
You always get an education when you listen to Glenn Loury.
Glenn Loury Is outstanding ! We need more like him.
The number of times Russ is left in awe of Glenn's ability to say it better than he ever could! 🤣
I wish glenn were my dad
I just can’t stop hearing Dennis Miller whenever Russ speaks. 🤣
"three quarters in the difference in black-white wages are accounted for by cognitive performance of the people in the sample when they were teenagers"
These days, no white scholar would be allowed to say that without getting massive flak from the Twitter mob. Thanks for having Mr. Loury on the show, Russ.
That’s straight out of The Bell Curve, right? Andrew Sullivan is still routinely trashed for publishing a restatement of their findings ~25 years ago. But it’s probably getting to the point where black scholars won’t be able to touch this stuff either.
There is something very self-defeating about all this. What is the payoff, and who is getting it?
roundedges2 The payoff is the energizing of all humans to go after their own highest ideal, consistent with the equal rights of others. Be freed! Go for it!
Thank you very much for having Dr. Loury on.
44:00: “I don’t believe in identity pedagogy, I don’t believe in identity epistemology, and I don’t believe in identity politics.” Thank you Glenn Loury for that, 100% brilliant, very helpful, I just stole that but will cite it when I say it. :)
Great guest.
Dr. Loury says this at roughly the twelve minute mark: "The descendants of American slaves, again taken as a whole, are the richest, the most powerful and influential population of African descent on the planet."
Black Americans are (and have been for more than 75 years) some of the world's leading scholars and writers and entertainers and athletes and scientists. It's a remarkable achievement that, for some strange reason, we don't want to talk too much about. For to do so means we have to look at the history of black (and white) Americans in all of its moral and social complexity. Yes, the injustices they faced (and still do to a lesser extent) held them back; but the history of black and white (in particular) is not simply one of oppressed and oppressor. It's just not. Saying it does is an injustice to those who fought it, who overcame it, and who want to continue that mission today.
A race of people who make these contributions, who are this powerful and influential, cannot - they simply cannot - live in a nation where they are systematically and completely oppressed. It cannot happen. It didn't.
That still does not get you or other people off the hook when you take growing in Love Intelligence and Integrity for granted. First Corinthians 13 talks about you can say ,hear ,think or accomplish many good or great things, yet if you do not love it is all vanity and poppycock!🤭🙄😉😏🙃. This is why as individually and collectively, Americans have work to do. Lets get to work and stop trying to find people to pat ourselves on the back, or justify are opinions.
Steven - True enough
@@leonpope861 Americans today don't need to be let of the hook. No nation has a prinstine past but taken as a whole the United States is a great nation and citizens of the USA are lucky to be here.
Excellent discussion. A fun experience to watch Econtalk after listening for so many years.
Great talk. Glad I found this channel.
Marx did not downplay the role of human agency, quite the opposite, he described how capitalism reduced human agency through the process of alienation. Revolutions do not start be eradicating everything that went before, they are a reaction to it. Historical materialism is dialectical. Philosophical materialism which relies on empirical evidence and dialectical reasoning, not fossilised dogma.
Excellent interview!
Anyone else watching this for a university history elective?
I really enjoyed the conversation. I'm surprised that Russ compared the statue of Stonewall Jackson to those of American presidents. Jackson fought against the United States in order to preserve slavery. A monument to an enemy combatant whose goal was the enslavement of a large portion of US citizens is very different than a monument to a US President, however flawed. I grew up in Richmond with a grandmother who still had Robert E. Lee's portrait on her wall, I attended a school named for a segregationist who closed public schools rather than integrate, etc. It's high time Richmond and other cities got rid of these symbols.
Most systems have rot but we are not rotten to the core , although we do have rot to deal with because our good capitalism system has too much corrupt capitalism in it right now ...
Lack of Vitamin D in newborns? Could look at levels vs outcomes in south Florida vs northern Maine?
Wealth underpins all of these issues!
Yes, as economists, where is the discussion about how corporate America is thriving in our nation of chaos and division?
Great conversation overall, but the host unilaterally labelling Louis IX (Saint Louis) an anti-Semite is not so great.
Sensible Majority.... only perceived as silent because of the shouting and lack of self-control of others who conduct themselves without decorum and tantrum their way to shutting down productive discourse.
Spoiled children that want a ready-made life (answer)provided for them. They don't realize they are free to make their own lives better. They should get off of their phones and start. Instead they want to make everybody as miserable as they are.
So tiring.
Calm down.
