~Tapping into Your Potential Where Others Saw None~ - บันเทิง
I was raised by my grandfather. We would watch all the chaos going on in the 70's on our rural little farm. He would tell me many rules a good man should live by. One of those rules was to never use the color of my skin as an excuse for personal weaknesses. And another was to respect all people until they give you reason not to. Rules I still live by.
what i wish is, that more people would live by those simple rules. 🤙
He was wise and gave you the best advice
Your grandfather was a strong and smart man. He refused to be a victim. That's very empowering.
Amen, thank you boone315
AMEN!
I am a 53 year old white male & most of my heroes are black men, Thomas Sowell being one of them. Van, you're killing it, dude. It is all about obtaining real knowledge which we never received in our government indoctrination schools.
It's really nice to see people uniting over common sense issues and being less controlled by tribalism. It's a lot more difficult for a lot black people to tread a certain path while dealing with having their reputation attacked. Either way though, we don't do the victim thing.
I'm the same age and feel exactly the same...
Nothing wrong with a White man having mostly White heroes and role models.
I wish more Americans were exposed to wise people, black or white, instead of popular people or celebrities who might be talented and/or educated, but are fools. Unfortunately it seems as if Americans can’t tell the difference between wisdom and stupidity.
That’s word!
Every school in America should be required to show this to their students.
Good luck but I agree. I would add Thomas Sowell should be required reading as well.
Teachers have tried and were fired.
They want us divided amongst eachother, so we don't go after them.
And I'm referencing the gov. That chooses education.
@@TheUniverseWorksForUsBeings No it’s not the Gov. It’s the Left aka Democrats.
Democrats dominate Education, Hollywood and the Media.
Over 90% of college professors are democrats as well.
The fact is Democrats try to use identity politics to divide America into groups and they want to control a majority of those groups.
It’s nothing new. It’s called the Frankfurt School and it’s an idea that has been around since the 1920s.
My ex from Congo watched this and didn’t get overly emotional, I told her about the current slave trade between Saudi states and Africa which is larger than any slave trade in history and she wasn’t so emotional, but she went all in on BLM, and that was so sad to see because she kept using her skin to excuse her simply not working or building something for herself, and she became basically impossible to date, and there will be hundreds of thousands of young women and men like her today
Maybe because you are using the slave trade around the world to excuse what the USA did. Just because someone else does something wrong doesn’t excuse what you did.
My parent used to say just because your friends jump off a cliff doesn’t mean you should.
Some people choose to believe what they want to believe so they don't have to be responsible for their own choices. You can usually tell who those people are because they are always blaming someone else or something else for their troubles.
Mr Sowell should be a household name in every school. Especially because he teaches about this subject without letting people get away with the idea that they could never do it or that their ancestors were free of guilt.
He is a household name but they call him Uncle Tom
Actually the real Uncle Tom was a hero in the book, ‘Uncle Tom’s Cabin’, So Thomas Sowell is a Uncle Tom, a real UNCLE TOM! Leading people out of bondage to freedom!! God Bless Him!
@@lisalu46 that's what the black people call him
The progressive Left doesn’t like people expressing views that they don’t approve of.
Especially if it reduces their power.
Their ability to get into office is dependent on the ignorance of their constituency.
Thomas Sowell is and was a threat to this.
They will never teach us this in school because school is not designed to educate, it’s destined to indoctrinate a controlable society and to be able to control us they need us fighting against each other.
Thomas Sowell is an extremely well researched scholar. The more I learn about him and his research, the more I am shocked that he isn't one of our most celebrated Americans in our history!
He's actually celebrated by conservatives throughout the world but unfortunatelly, the majority of them are not black, because black people prefer liberals ou leftists.
@@douglasvieira1824 WHERE IS THAT DIATRIBE, GENERALIZATION STEREOTYPE FOUND?? NOPE, MOST BLACKS ARE CONSERVATIVE STANDARDED PEOPLE, BUT THE MEDIA LIKES TO PORTRAY BLACKS OTHERWISE! IT IS CALLED " PROJECTING," !! Most right and left Politricks' in America are in the toilet!
He is, by those who know his important work.
He is amazing!
Unfortunately, our media and politicians are so corrupt that this guy is considered a threat to their agenda. Our society is trying to suppress people like Thomas Sowell.
Thomas Sowell is a national treasure, he should be required reading or listening in high school and colleges
Yes because you love his lies
YES!!!
@@cobicobi6417 which lie?
@@irtheLeGiOn 1. More slaves were bought to North Africa than in the American slave trade. And he said white slaves were still being bought and sold in the Ottoman Empire even after the American Civil War
@@irtheLeGiOn Sowell also says white people just took slaves and left from the West Coast of Africa but the Portuguese set up whole colonies on the West coast of Africa. The Portuguese fought a war against the Mail Empire in 1444 even through the Mali won even though they were fighting people that had guns they lost lots of people thus weakening the empire . This helped cause the fall of the Mali Empire and allowed for instability in the region
Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams 2 men I have read for over 40 years and I am Caucasian. These are our great men and my black friends don't even know them. Shameful. Thanks for getting this out to the public.
Love love LOVE Thomas Sowell. If we had more human beings like him, the world would be a much better place.
There IS more people vocal as Mr. Sowell, unfortunately they are afraid to speak out
agrred wish he'd run for President and save our history
@JESSICA QUICK He doesn't fear anybody, all politicians play both sides of the fence for votes, then they represent nobody but their beloved seat.
Yes me too . He teaches and has written about the past of the Irish. He is brilliant. 👍👍👍💕🤩💕
Truth tellers instead of segregationist??? 👏👏👏
Lakeisha was spot on about how tv has formed people's misconceptions about slavery and race relations. It's warped man.
It’s in bedded in the entire culture with rap music being the worst culprit
Rap is 30 years old … WTF is you saying
They're trying to divide us. They can control us easier.
This lady is very insightful. She immediately got to the heart of Alex Halley’s “myth” comment (8:21). ‘He gave us something to hate.” Wow - very true. I really like the way she thinks and expresses herself.
Yah that hit me too. She said it man. She saw it.
@jimmiejaybohorn3916 Meh. Can’t refute his points, so you try to make a personal attack - and utterly fail.
@jimmiejaybohorn3916 lol, yes, I’ve heard of MLK. Again, you can’t refute anything the learned economist/historian Thomas Sowell has said. You would rather deflect to other topics and people.
@jimmiejaybohorn3916 Lol, you are a broken record who offers nothing of value. Obviously you can’t handle the truth of what he is saying. Sad.
@jimmiejaybohorn3916 Lol - now you are calling me a racist because you have no reply to Sowell’s actual points? Are you 12 years old? 🤣 Or maybe I’m giving you too much credit and you are only 4 years old and will call me a poopoo head next.
I love the people who say "Uncle Tom" they never read the book. Uncle Tom was a hero he saved others from what he was going to face.
Thomas Sowell is one of the best brilliant minds in America
He and Ben Carson...
I LOVE Thomas Sowell. ❤ I'm having my son listening to him so he can debate his teacher when its time for his "public school indoctrination".
Careful. They’ll probably expel him for illegal possession of truth
@@oooof6861 😂 ain't that the truth.
Lmao well said.
Haha...good one 😅
Good luck, I live in a red state thinking my child was safe. Nope, blindsided me like a mack truck. As a man I had to walk away from a 27yr marriage, from a women I loved very much. I had to avoid prosecution and made into a monster, I'm guilty. Guilty of being white, married to a dark skin women. Me being me, I record everything. Only reason I'm free, with a career. My daughter went in hard with my wife in tow. Suddenly my biracial family was at war...
Good shit man, I bought this book 3 years ago and this man is criminally underrated, Sowell is a national treasure
That is an understatement friend. I wish that everyone had to sit down to a good meal and LISTEN to this man. He is not just an academic but also a great spiritualist. Good man.
Global treasure.
Love from South Africa
What book is this in???

@ 12:34 , when the young lady said "I'm so sick and tired, , " I broke down in relief that she was aware of the strife within her community and took the bull by the horns fueled by her anger..
Thank you, Van Hill and LaKeesha Washington‼️🙋🏻♂️ 💖 🇺🇸 💖
Why does she say us and we? Why separate themselves from others? We are all Americans, black and white
@@pdumpsterful , she may have been referring to problems within only one culture..? 🤷🏻♂️
I have been telling people for years about the black slave owners in the south and they all told me I was a liar. Thank you for posting this. I was even given a F grade on a paper because , even though it was truth, I shouldn't have written this paper for American history.
But even before there were dark skinned slave owners and before dark skinned people were slaves. Every different color skinned people were slaves also?
That’s screwed up, people are so brainwashed with negativity and full of hate they don’t want to hear the truth even if it comes from a black person.
You were messing with your teacher(school district)'s agenda. That's why you got a F.
I was sent out of American History class for speaking up about the so-called Civil War. And taking up for my ancestor that l knew of, at that time in the mid'70s.
@@carywest9256 No I wasn't. Nobody ever told you that all kinds of different skin colored people were slaves? They really sheltered you from real world history then. Ouch.
The first slave owner in the future US was an African indentured servant from 1619. He brought people over from Africa under an indentured servitude contract and successfully argued that one of them was bound to him for life. This is allowed through English Common Law under a debtor's contract and still exists today in places like India. It even expands to multi-generational contracts. In the US these types of contracts were abolished long before the civil war. Nearly all debts are abolished during bankruptcy with the exception of Student Loans and those will probably be challenged in the coming years.
❤ I’m a big fan of Sowell. I just got my granddaughter the narrative of the life of Frederick Douglass from Tarl Warwick.
I was so moved from the first page-I had to put it down so I could weep. What he went through and what his spirit overcame and refused to give up and take…the longing to be the master of his own fate…it’s what anyone of us would want. So inspiring and uplifting. Love to all of you, my brothers and sisters! 🤗❤️🇺🇸
Frederick Douglass was an amazing man.
I’m so sick of blacks complaining about brutality while brutalizing other blacks. We use the n-word religiously, abandon our children, treat our women like sex objects, and black women act and dress as they f they have no respect for themselves during award shows. It’s ridiculous!
Tarl Warwick is a.k.a. Styxhexenhammer666 here on TH-cam. Cool guy. Been watching him for at least 7 years. Don’t let the name of his channel scare you. He’s not a Devil worshiper…lol…just an editor of (usually) very old occult books. I’ve got one of his herbal medicine books, edited & reprinted from a centuries old book. I’ll have to get his Frederick Douglass book.👍
@@tarantulady8565 I love Styx. One of the most intelligent and perspective people on TH-cam when it comes to politics. I don't agree with everything he says but I still respect him and his intelligence and knowledge.
@@Lunzatis_Palemoon Agreed! 💯 Yes, he’s very astute and knowledgeable re: politics, and his intelligence is undeniable. Hubby & I usually watch Styx daily just to hear his thoughts about the news of the day, get his perspective. And we don’t always agree with him either. But, overall, definitely worth watching.
I feel for anyone who has learned their history lessons through hollywood.
Try talking to those people about WW2 haha They think that movies made by Jews about Nazis are accurate.
Yeah most history movies are very inaccurate. Screenwriters and producers write them not historians not scientists.
@@steveescher1554 movies are not accurate because that’s not the purpose it’s made for it!! Plus people are not gonna watch historical movies because they’re boring and not fun!!
And U.S schools
@@mitchpeter5718 Lol we know that, but a lot of people do not. I hear the craziest things about Hitler and the NSDAP. Jew soap and lamp shades lol like really? where do they get this stuff? they still believe they killed non blondes lol that was just a lie based on the western world believing blonde hair blue eyes was the best look and it stayed that way until the 90s, even here in the US, just look at the models. Now it is "tall, dark and handsome:. That's like saying the US killed anyone that wasn't tall dark and handsome haha just because that look is "in" right now. A bunch of innocent people were locked up and died as a result, which is horrible and does not require lies to make it worse. It does if you want to profit off of it and trick people into believing the communists were the good guys and we should be like them, but suppress any ideology that went against the communists and even make up lies about them so no one will ever look into their politics that worked so well in fighting against communism
I’m surprised at the amount of wisdom LaKeesha has! She is very intelligent and I appreciate that. I am also amazed at how humble and understanding you both are! I’m glad I saw this video! Good job!
And that right there is why we will never give up our second Amendment...
EXACTLY!!
just stick to what makes the statistics bad for you..now imagine the chain reaction, if everyone possessed the thing with which they defend themselves.because even if I did self-defense. how would other people who were not there from the beginning react. would I become a victim stats

I have a friend who is black and her ancestors lived in Virginia and were in fact black themselves and owned slaves. It was quite eye opening to hear her talk about it.

@@oldschoolzone5711 So what?
Thank you very much for presenting this information. I watched "Roots" when I was younger and really hated slave traders. Hurts finding out Alex stretched the truth to grow the myth. I was never racist and never will be. Color of the skin doesn't determine the character of a person. But people gathered in groups can alter an individual's character. Groups can promote or denounce racism. I live as an individual building my own character.
Tom Macdonald has a song that said they don't want us to get along because if we do, we might go against them.
I highly doubt anyone was red pill through his music
@@eternallife9786 show me where he hurt you lol
I wasn’t red pilled thru his music but I do enjoy how Tom calls out the hypocrisy in our society.
I like Tom however rap is the number one genre in the world, I fully fully believe it's the source of the madness people forgot that music is suppose to only be entertainment people trying to live lyrics .. I especially feel whites need to stop buying it and spending money with those spreading hatred against you why support that it's setting society years and years back
Tom didn’t really red pill anyone but he does speak the truth in his music.
“Fear and faith cannot exist in the same place.” Best line EVER, Miss LaKeesha!
Very powerful statement. It should be on billboards, shirts, bumper stickers everywhere!
i thought the same thing. that needs to be a phrase more of us live by.
Faith cannot exist in reality either
@@csabo1725 Faith can most certainly exist in reality.
What exactly is "faith" directed at in this statement? Faith in what? Usually it's directed at the existence of the Christian God, which then in turn, purports fear. In Christianity, it's essential for fear and faith to exist in the same place. Although I am not Christian, I still don't understand this statement, nor do I understand why people are moved by it. Fear, is a natural response when facing mortal adversity. If you think that you can invest enough faith into anything and become impervious to fear, you're either wrong, or you're a sociopath. Or perhaps a bit unhinged due to relentless fanaticism.
If, by chance, the statement implies that faith is in one's self, I can stomach it, but I don't see any significant power in it.
"Gave us something to hate" SHE NAILED IT, CORRECT! Our eyes are opening.
100% agree. Slavery has never been abolished.
The fact that people are more outraged about slavery from the past and not outraged about slavery going on today is insane
I say that all the time. Trafficking and slavery is a multi billion dollar industry. You know why the elite keep us focusing on the past? Many are part of the slavery problem and if we are divided then we won't unite against them. I always think about that scene in a Bug's Life when the grasshopper says We can't let them figure out that they outnumber us. This is how our government thinks.
Thomas Sowell is an American treasure
We must protect him at all costs
YES!!!!
Back as a kid, I checked out Booker T. When I was older, I read the stuff he wrote, cause I respected that man. I was blown away at his wisdom. People say his name today, but rarely read what he had to say. We would be a much better country if everyone respected his words as I do.
SO YOU FOUND THE GREAT INVENTOR AND SAVER OF MILLIONS OF LIVES ; THE GREAT THE WONDERFUL BOOKER T, PEANUTS ! HE WAS A BRILLANT MAN , HE WAS A MAN OF THE PEOPLE AND NEVER COMPLAINED OR WHINED HE JUST INVENTED AND INVENTED AND THAT MAKES HIM A MAN OF GREAT MORALS AND ETHICS !! KEEP READING AND LISTEN TO EVERY VIDEO , PODCAST BY DR. SOWELL AND GET SUPER SMART, WHAT I WOULD HAVE GIVEN TO STUDY UNDER THIS MAN !!
Blacks hate Booker T because he advocated education and building skills over worrying about civil rights.
Like Ms. Washington said, this is why they won’t teach the truth! They have to keep people uninformed to keep power.
Education was more precious to him than gold. That’s the truth for everyone, every immigrant wave that has hit these shores.
Knowledge truly is power. Not tyranny. Power, as in strength.
Sir, I believe the worst assignation in this country was the killing of Dr.Martin Luther King! Not any of the Kennedy family. Him. I believe OUR country would be better for everyone if he had not been killed.
Thomas Sowell is one of the greatest academic geniuses of our time. So much respect for this fine gentleman. Thank you LFR Family
Absolutely. Thomas Sowell is a true intellectual. Read anything he has written, he is always right on point. He just understands, he gets it.
Hats off to Thomas Sowell for speaking truth and facts to the false popular social narrative. Most people just go along without questioning the narrative because it's the easy and popular thing to do. Questioning requires examination and thinking, which he has done. Sowell and others know that it's difficult to point out deception to the deceived because they hate to admit being fooled for so long by so many... it's VERY uncomfortable.
Remember seeing TV movie about people around 1800 where a guy was in shipping business and got into shipping slaves from Africa. There was an incident where one of his ships went down in a storm and took a full load of slaves with it and besides losing a ship he was so devastated by all those souls going down with the ship that he ended up killing himself.

I’m a Caucasian man who grew up reading Mr. Sowells column everyday while traveling to High School. He’s a great man. Highly astute and incredibly intelligent. I think the powers at be try to use race to divide us and that way play each other against us to stay in whatever form of power they have. It’s disgusting. But keeping us apart in cities and towns into enclaves keeps their power base going. Inner cities especially.
SOOOO GOOD to see folks doing their own research seeking an honest truth about the world. It's SO important we all do this in a world full of information overload and propaganda.
How's about Black Americans start referring to Themselves as Just.....AMERICANS! Oh, Great Video Van and The Beautiful Young Lady.
It’s still shocking to me that people don’t know who Thomas sowell is, I remember listening to him in the truck with my dad in the 90s.
6 years ago it was shocking to me I didn't know who Thomas Sowell is. I try not to beat myself up too much. Now I spend a little time each day allowing desperate and wise thinkers inform my world views.
Yeah he’s not pushing a divisive racist narrative so you won’t see him on the mainstream media.
Props to your Pops.
Because media and hollywood hides the truth
I was actually shocked that this bright young man had never heard of Dr. Sowell until very recently. This tells me our schools are doing a very poor job of educating young people.
Girl what you said was right on... giving us a reason to hate!! Wow. Thank you. Thank you guys for being for unity, and truth. Thank you for bringing us together. This lady gets my applause 👏 . She is a wise and smart woman! Van as always thanks for promoting unity!!
I know right, she was awesome! And she's right, that's why they the government wanted black people to believe "white people are racist". It blows my mind that black people think "white people are racist", but yet I seen lots of black people dating / marrying a white person than but yet "whites are racist" how does that make sense? oh right it doesn't. It's all been there excuse for getting attention from white people, so white people would feel bad for them by their race. Reality it shouldn't be about stupid race it should be about learn to unite with each other as one human race❤. Like imagine if we were all color blind like animals.
As a one, one and only race the human race we were and are divided into factions, made narratives constantly repeated, to control! We were conquered, conquered ourselves, on only one purpose, so that a few people can enslave the rest of us and to make a money and get or to hold power over us. That's world politics in a nutshell!
And hate creates more hate. It spreads like a
malignant disease.
The young woman was right, people are celebrating negativity. It’s continually being pumped into young minds on a daily basis through all media which causes them to hate. Just turn onTH-cam and hear how they feel about whites. I understand why because of history but everyone is not the same.
She's a smart lady. I enjoyed this. Thanks.
People like you two are why hope still exists for this world.
Loving you, Miss LaKeesha! I’m an American historian and it’s actually really nice to hear people having a calm discussion about the truth of our history as a nation.
I agree! I tried to have a conversation on Linked In, and I was blasted with hate. The topic was reparations. It got ugly, so I left the thread.
Most people don't have the stomach to really get into the real un polished history, good, bad, and the really bad should be known.
@@BobSmith-ke4jg I had the benefit of a very good American History Professor when I was in college. I remember her first class. She told every student that if they didn’t have the stomach for pain, human suffering and absolute horror; then the study of history was not for them and they should reconsider their major. She was right.
There's a book called "Barracoon: The Story of the Last Black Cargo" that you should read, if you haven't already. It's a biography of the last living slave (known at the time) in the US to make the journey across the Atlantic, Cudjoe Lewis. The author interviewed him in 1927, but the book wasn't published until 2018 (58 years after the author died). He gave her his account of his village being raided by a neighboring tribe when he was a teen, the men slaughtered and dismembered, the women and children sold as slaves. This kind of brutality served 2 purposes. It eliminated nearby enemies/competitors, and it filled the conqueror's pockets. It's also not unique. Most of human history worldwide has been a cycle of violence and subjugation.
Regrettably this and most facts about universal human cruelty throughout history has been funneled into the demonization of one race and taken to the extremes in current social agendas. It is human nature to knock the powerful from their perches, not for the good of all, but to install ourselves in their place. The problem with this is that throughout history most new rulers are just as bad or worse than the deposed.
Do you not that in that period African were slave on their own land my grand mother was already born and they European had already divided the land for themselves , I don’t think that this book is true, why not publish it before sound forge in my opinion
@@misstessasims3850, I'm not sure what part of that story sounds unbelievable to you, or what reason this woman would have to lie, or what reason Cudjoe would have to lie. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zora_Neale_Hurston
IF Thomas Sowell books were made mandatory reading in black communities, not only would they have a Bonafide home grown U.S.A. born and breed HERO...it would completely transform and INFORM the culture and propel the community to atmospheric levels. He is one of the greatest mind of the 20th century, yet Mr. Sowell is all but unknown by black communities (how can this be?) It only takes ONE person...to change the world. Although...I would say VAN is giving it one heck of an effort! Bravo Van...thank you for your bravery!
You said "For some reason I'm still not numb to that..." I think you should never be numb to it. You have a heart that cares. And that's gold.
So true. It's amazing to me that no one shows pics of all race slaves in chains etc but ppl want to act like that didn't happen! It breaks my heart to see anyone treated as sub-human! But to the woke, it was only blacks who were slaves. Stolen, sold, mistreated and owned only by whites! If they knew or cared to know then they could not be the ultimate victim and DESERVE more than anyone else. Why would anyone want to be a victim? To me that's an insult and I've had bad things happen to me! I learned from those things tho, which takes work, lazy ppl hate work
Thomas Sowell is amazing. I read him in HS and I'm 52. He is one of the greatest minds of our time.
I will cry like a baby when he passes. I love that man.
Same, then they will try to erase him from history. We must not let that happen.
I’m so thankful for being introduced to Thomas Sowell. He has such an honest and deep desire to get to truth. I can’t imagine growing up as he did and still being able to do that. He’s an amazing human. 😊

All 5 of my sons agreed that Thomas Sowell ‘s work was not only right but that the term “ Uncle Tom “ is being used in the wrong way! Apparently, many Uncle Toms were with the underground railway as were many Lutheran, Anglican, and Catholic white ladies! ✨☀️✨👵🏽☝🏾
Loving that lovely friend of yours. She's already ahead of this issue. She sees & knows. You and she are the black voices so desperately needed on MSM to break the spell.
Great conversation between two thoughtful, intelligent people.
I'm glad that he's getting this out there.
I'm starting to like this channel.
Yeah this lady and Van done a excellent job.
This is why we need proper history to be taught in our schools and in our country so we can learn the truth, about history good or bad ,so we can reflect on it and learn from it, as to not let the bad history repeat itself and take the good history to improve our future as a nation and as civilized human beings
Yes same reason why historical statues and monuments should be preserved not toppled.
I'm white 63 years old and never told this. I come from poor white folks and I'm still poor today. My grandpa built his log house. No plumbing and boards for floors. And a pot belly stove for heat. I truly think all peoples need to insist on truth being taught in school. This is why white privilege people want to ban our books. Thank You for sharing this. ❤
Really? Where do you get this white privilege?
We need this history taught in schools.
Im SLAVIC (POLISH/Czech) the name of my people comes from the WORD SLAVE...

instead of the crap the liberals are pushing now
We need this history but not black history right
@@truehistory261 how about American history instead of black revisionist history.
@@davemartino5997 ever other group has there own why not have black history and your right we need to tell our story not white ppl us telling how it happened
I really enjoyed this, as a white British chap who is somewhat fed up lately with the attacks on my country for its history with slavery yet it’s never explained Britain and the Royal Navy ended slave ships on the high seas thus ending much of slavery.
British also paid reparations but not to the slave but the slave owner.
@@justmehello5543 If anything, that's just a government reimbursement, not a reparation. The slaveowner spent his own money on a practice that was supported and fueled by the State, so when the State did away with the practice it took on the financial burden of giving the people who spent their money participating in it by giving it back to them. Countries are rich, but hardly ever _that_ rich, and to some perspectives that might be seen as "rewarding the wrong guy" but to me I see that as the State accepting responsibility for it's own role and taking the consequences upon itself.
Only 3000 British people were slave owners out of millions! The poor were treated terribly by the rich !!! It's always been the Rich treating poor people whatever color they were!
Divide and conquer has never been more true than now.....
We need a million more understanding people like her
This was so good! Wish it was longer! Thank you Van and LaKeesha! 🙏🏻😻🎉
Thomas Sowell is Brilliant 🙏🏻♥️
I'm not a liberal. To me, Thomas Sowell and Ayaan Hirsi Ali are 2 of the most inspiring people I've ever listened to. Meaning they inspire me to try to be a bit more like them, every day.
"The White liberal is the worst enemy to America and the worst enemy to the Black man" Malcolm X
Ayaan Hirsi Ali is lying. She never was a political refugee, she was a luck seeker. She did not come from Somalia when entering the Netherlands, she already lived in Kenia and Germany for 12 years before. She was kicked out of the Netherlands for this. Persona non grata.
@@ForOdinAndAsgard Half truth. I am from The Netherlands and I know what happened. Ayaan Hirsi Ali was told to lie by the immigration officers to have a chance of not being sent back to Africa. She was supported to lie by authorities. Later this was used against her when she became very critical of islam and made a short movie by Theo van Gogh about the submissive role women have in islam. The movie was called Submission. Shortly after this movie Theo van Gogh was assasinated by a muslim in Amsterdam. Ayaan, by then a Dutch member of parliament was demonised and bullied out of parliament. Her original lies to enter the country were used against her. I am ashamed for my country about that. Ayaan Hirsi Alie is a hero.
@@reindervantil2582 That is not what happened.
@@ForOdinAndAsgard That is precisely what happened. Ayaan Hirsi Alie was bullied out of The Netherlands after her works with Theo van Gogh.
People need to be kind to each other
I appreciate you folks putting this on. As a white guy with a PhD, it never occurred to me that slavery could be related to racism. For example, the Spanish selected Africans to work in the Caribbean islands and South America because the indians they had enslaved could not endure the brutal conditions and were dying quickly. In other words, the Africans were found to be hardier, not inferior!
Hi "white" guy [so annoying at this point go for the goal, say ur "pronouns"also🙄]. KILLARY brought back slavery in Libia it's in effect NOW; pictures & price; CCP that China --Jo is in bed with as well as Crackhead Hunter; is currently using 1000's of Uyger Christian Muslims for work -- or "spare parts" in case the ELITE need a new heart or kidney; yet WHY WONT ANYONE CALL IT OUT? WE DO, GET DEMONETIZED AND HAVE BUILT A PARALEL ECONOMY EXCEPT THE "BIGGEST 1 OUT THERE--CONSERVATIVES
Ms. Washington I dont have a daughter but if I did I wish she would be like you!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your common sense and intelligence is sorely needed among many of our people!!!!!!!! And Van my brother keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!!!
Omg thank you everyone this comment warmed my heart immensely
I have been listening to Mr. Sowell for years. Amazing person. A person I look up to.
😊I have watched Thomas Sowell for quite sometime, I ama white dude, I love this man as he is awesome in his putting things together, Morse people both white and black need to listen to Thomas Sowell, he is downtown earth!
Not only is she amazingly insightful, she's articulate, knowledgeable, and gorgeous.
If you love Sowell, you'll love Walter Williams too. RIP WW.
Thomas Sowell is someone who more should admire. He is brilliant, and he isn’t afraid to speak the truth. It is also good to hear the truth that is being spoken in your video. We should be teaching all history in our schools (even the painful topics) so we can learn from it. Unfortunately that doesn’t happen. Instead we tend to skip over the history that is difficult, the history we don’t want to hear, and then we end up repeating the same mistakes over and over. Thank you for sharing this video. It will open some eyes,if people will listen.
That woman tells the truth! Well done girl!
Oh Van you crack me up! You learned the secret to life early. Make a person smile and you have a friend for life. You can't hate with a smile on your face, unless you are demented, I guess. 😄 Makes me remember what a elementary Principal told me about my oldest with learning disabilities...don't worry about Mike, he has the biggest smile, he will always pass his classes. He was right. Mike is now 54 and that smile still serves him well.
As a 53 year old white dude....I gotta say thank you for sharing some reality! Not truth. .because that's told by the one with the most toys! I love all people because as God designed....we are stronger together in love and praise. We weren't put here to hate on each other....that's satans issues....not ours! God Bless! Peace and Love from Atlanta
We should never allow ourselves to become numb to slavery. It is still happening & that is where our energy should be placed. I love your videos. You guys are so open and your responses are so honest.
Thanks to Hillary people are being enslaved in Libya. There were no slave sales in Libya before she had ghadafi murdered
I agree with you. There are child slaves in the Central African Republic today and I would like money to be used to help stop that rather than reparations to people who, by comparison, are hugely privileged. Reading Dexter Dias' "10 Types of Human" really opened my eyes to the current situation in CAR.
“Fear and Faith cannot exist in the same place”. Yes! 🙌
So where did you find this amazing, intelligent, calm woman? We need more of her. I will probably subscribe to her now.
Calm ?
This man’s knowledge should be required education for everyone
Thank you. Much Respect for your courage to speak to the truth... Evil is Evil everywhere.
You have the best view/explanation of REAL reaction channels that I have heard so far! SPREAD THE INFORMATION! No one can watch every video at the same time. Channels like LFR Fam have done the research and invested their time and energy for YOUR consideration and perspective. Thank you to the real reaction channels that help spread important information you might otherwise have missed. ❤
I was in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in the early 2000, and we went by an area where you could still see the remains of the slave holding pens for the nearby slave market. Up until that point, we were having such a good time touring the city, but when the driver took us there, there was such a profound impact on us that everyone went quiet. This area had been used through the early 1900s to house the slaves for the market. It was only in ruins because they just left to fall apart.
Sadly the Arabs still are and have been throughout history enslavers more than any other 'race'! Everyone has been enslved at somepoint in time!
Learned about all of this in high school. History was my favorite subject
Good for you. I didn't gain an appreciation until later.
Sounds like you had good teachers.
God bless you both! My eternal brother and sister ♥️. I pray this video goes viral in Jesus mighty name!!
If more kids had fathers like you, the world would be a better place. You’re a blessing to us, because getting to go on this journey with you is educational and heart warming. And you’re absolutely a blessing to your wife and kids, because it takes a REAL man to seek truth and buck the popular opinion for your morals and beliefs…and that’s an example you’re setting for your kids that’s worth it’s weight in gold.
She said 'I wanna give my people something to HATE' ! Hit me in my heart to hear the truth of such an evil act from that man and every other person who uses pain and ignorance of to create more pain.
I remember having Roots played almost every year in grade school. While I know what was depicted likely happened I didn't realize the likely purpose of the show's creation had such a negative goal.
Even if Kesha is never red pilled she is a beautiful, intelligent and remarkable woman. Great reaction!
Keep speaking Van! Nothing will get better until the truth is spoken. Thank you my brother.
Thomas Sowell is a treasure, he taught me things about my own people that I did not know. If it was not for him, and men like him I would not have been as successful in life, no question. Excellent video, and a new subscriber.
I'm happy for your success , you must have great parents also . Let me ask you , what do you feel about rap culture? Would you say it has hurt society especially black ppl ?
Rap is the number one genre world wide you may not know that but it matters
@@LightLivingEst80 I agree that it has not done black culture any good, but I am guilty of enjoying it.
Van, you are spot on. Never allow yourself to be numb to the atrocities committed to humans by humans. In a big way, this is how the atrocities go unchecked in the first place, when people stand by and do/say nothing. Thank you for your compassionate spirit, and may God continue to bless you and work through you sir.
It is so refreshing to hear intelligent pleaple. Thanks 🙏
Considering uncle tom DIED instead of giving away where escaped slaves went, I would be grateful to be called a uncle tom
This!!
John Brown.
Thank you Van Hall for doing this video. I hope that LaKeesha Washington shares this factual video with her audience and they can learn the Truth of slavery.
For what it’s worth, I absolutely adore LaKeesha, what a gorgeous breath of fresh air she is!! So smart, grounded, and what a wonderful sense of humor. Thank you Van, for introducing this beautiful brilliant lady to us. This is one of my most favorite of LFR Family videos I’ve ever seen, and that’s saying a lot because I’m a long time fan! Peace, love and joy ❤️✌️
I would have thought that to had I not watched their newer video where she reacts to Kaitlyn Bennett before this one she literally gave me a headache where as this one she read the room
Two of my heroes are Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams (RIP).
To the gentleman: You say that _"for some strange reason"_ you feel for people who are being bound and used against their will. That's not *strange.* It is called *EMPATHY* my friend. You can experience the pain of another as if it's your own. It is not Strange, it is Noble. Don't resist it and don't be shamed for it. If anything moves us forward, it will be empathy.
This video was so informative. I only wish everyone in this country can see this. I know in my heart that if we can teach this in our schools we would all heal. We are being played by this government to hate each other. All American's, of every color, must stand strong against this evil trying to separate us.
Divide and conquer. The classic control policy works well when it is done well. And modern media and propaganda now mwkes it even easier to do well.
Back in 70s, it was in the history books, I personally read it, because I love reading. It was just a few sentences ,but in class, no teacher or student ever mentioned it.
you obviously took very little knowledge from this with that comment, maybe you'll listen to black redneck white liberal all the way through to know it was/is a worldwide problem not just a color problem, you just got the benefits of being alive after the fact.
Thomas Sowell is a national treasure and 200 years from now when the world has come its senses there will be statues of this man in town squares.
BLM/Antifa would tear it down.
We are fallen....we can't get up.
never underestimate that one person shining a light can reach millions.
Educate! Educate! EDUCATE!! Great video. Thank you
LaKeesha, your comments about shaming ourselves through our personal actions and culture is spot on! I’m a white female and this applies to all of us. We ALLOW too much and expect far too LITTLE of ourselves. We are our own worst enemies in many instances. We need to respect ourselves first. A brilliant, inspired man of God named Gordon B. Hinkley once said (and this is not a direct quote word for word): The best way to raise self-esteem is to learn to work hard and accomplish something. I have found that to be true in my own life and I most certainly did not come from a privileged background. My dad taught me that there was always a way to accomplish a task. Always. That one lesson has served me well my entire life in conjunction with my faith in God. With those two tools, nothing REALLY seems impossible. Good bless you both. ❤️
Amen!
Van that hat looks so good on you! It’s a whole vibe! That style hat should be your trademark! Fire lol
One thing not mentioned here was how the Irish where taken to the west and put into indentured servitude. The women were used to make more slaves by being forced to mate with African men. This would save the slave owner a lot of money and also allow for trading women for other African males. Indentured servitude was a work off system giving false hope of working for your freedom. Most owners would tack on years to their time for small things like breaking a dish or staining a shirt. This in itself was a form of slavery. So even the children of African men and indentured servants where born into a form of slavery. The whole ordeal was tragic.
Van, you are not alone in the feeling of disgust and empathy when seeing these photos.
