He was then traded to the Philadelphia Eagles in 2013, where he spent most of his career.

Nice! Thank You!
Nice presentation
I enjoyed the conversation last night. Your host was great and Emmanuel is excellent at what he does. Everybody has got to see his interview with the Petaluma Police Department.
More knowledge,More vexation
Us as African we must learn to
articulate property in a society where
Our skin color are our big weapon .
I can relate with you Emmanuel, I am a Jamaican raising my black children with a strong Jamaican identity and have them in a predominantly white school. I know it can be difficult. Thank you for these conversations.
I’m right there with you H S. I am a Jamaican and I raised ( past tense) my children in predominantly white schools. We had to change schools several times. With high IQs my children had surpassed the intellectual level that most of the classes were on. I kept them going, just like we do in Jamaica. We worked harder, brighter, smarter. Now, they have everything to show for it.
You always could send them to a predominantly black school if that makes you feel any better.
Can Uncomfortable Conversations be translated to world languages? This is needed everywhere. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart for doing this. I can't get enough. It makes sense. Finally, something makes sense.
Loved the strong conversation.
I watch and listen to Emmanuel with sheer admiration because the way he articulates himself is so powerful. He has the propensity to be understood by the upper echelons, to the working class. That is a great skill to have...I thought I knew alot as I do lots of talks in institutions, education and provisions on the topic of racism n I find myself learning more everytime I listen to him. The fact he is able to put scenarios into layman's terms and give amazing comparative examples is a great gift.
I would love to send him my poetry book Outspoken by True Colours ( available on Amazon) and see what he thinks as I talk about many topics around latent and blatant racism....n life experiences which are very similar to his.
As a fellow igbo man brought up in the western world I can relate to so many life experiences. All i ask is for Emmanuel to keep showing his True Colours he us making some great waves. #sytc
High IQ conversation. Very authentic, great interview!
Question...what was his parents opinion of black people in America?
As a white girl, thank you for this. ❤ ❤
If you’re identifying as a color, you’re racist. You’ve been indoctrinated
@@rogerc23 no, I appreciate his education. I don't normally identify myself this way. Only mentioning it because, um...... race is the subject.
@@TMTgirl No you’re a racist who identifies herself and others but the colour of their skin, and worse feel that colour requires special favours and treatment or ill treatment because of simply that. It’s racist, you’ve been indoctrinated and programmed. And only you can change that, white girl....God that description makes me sick.
@Damian Jablonski Wrong. Let me guess, never read an actual world history book? And if you have list it.
nice video any tips for incresing likes subcribes
Race hustler?
Here is a man who is living a life that is better than the vast majority of all people on the planet and still manages to view himself as oppressed. His show should be titled "Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Liberal". If you were to talk with some black conservatives, that would be an entirely different conversation. Who voted him as spokesperson for all black people anyways?
He didn't say he was oppressed. And should he apologize to people for working hard and having something? What he's talking about is ignorance, and the willingness of some to remain so.
@@ronalddowdell9475 He absolutely should not have to apologize for working hard and having something! Thank you for saying it, I couldn't agree more.
He seems to be saying the issue is a moral, not political one. It's love over hate or right over wrong. If his message becomes popular I'm sure political elites will find a way to pervert his message into something negative to keep the divide and rule politics that's extremely popular with today's Democratic and Republican Party.
@@rbaraka1 I don't think that he has any moral point to make. He's just selling books.
That.host.aint.black...he..look asian&dark...but i would never say "a black guy"
Jesus, Google. The only reason this is uncomfortable is seeing how this series has sunk in terms of its quality and calibre of speakers. In your choice of speakers, you might want to put less emphasis on that diversity quota and more on whoever can deliver top-notch content. Otherwise people will just stop following this series.

Oh look we’re pandering to the special kids again.
When you belong to a group that has always had attention and privelege, you notice when some of that attention gets shifted elsewhere.
