    It's insane that Thomas Sowell has been writing on all the topics.... I never heard if him through my entire education career.
    I have a hunch that the left decided to handle him by not acknowledging him. He dismantles so many arguments we have been having for the last decade.

      I think that's right. We see the treatment of black conservatives. They would ignore Clarence Thomas too if they could.

      P.S., he was on public television circa 1980s. Have you seen him on 'Firing Line' on TH-cam? It's fascinating.

      You probably had not heard of him because schools work hard to make sure of it.

    Thank you for uploading your Thomas Sowell videos, they are real gems! Do you back up your videos anywhere in case YT decides to wipe out your channel?

    I notice that Sowell clips don’t get much traffic - suspicious- he grappled with themes that are increasingly relevant, just not supportive of today’s dominant (and faulty) narratives. Thank you for sharing.

    I know why Sowell isn't more of a household name. He has a awkward laugh, and finds things funny that typical people aren't tickled by. I love his sense of humor and laugh btw.

    It’s so very courageous to present facts that fly against the propaganda narrative of the Ivy League and Hollywood.

    America missed a huge opportunity when the democrats destroyed Robert Bork’s appointment to the Supreme Court. Thomas Sowell testified on Boris behalf. Truly a shame.

    The guy doing the intro loves to taste his own words. Maybe a glass of water would help prevent that slobbering sound between breaths.

    This man had the goal to call president Obama a demagogue. But then totally leave out any conversation about the orange Hitler.
