As a High School teacher told me right before graduation, don't let schooling get in the way of your education. That was over 40 years ago and I thank him for that advice every day.

Thomas Sowell is an American treasure. What a brilliant man. He should be held up as a role model in the black community, and frankly, any community.

👁 lived in Nigeria (As a black American) for 2 yrs, and actually witnessed a thing called 'tribalism' which is FAR more intense or even toxic than racism, ..BELIEVE me; and it still exist ALL over Africa til this day.

“Education” and “indoctrination” are two completely different things-not a lot of people know;just like they planned ✌️

Thomas Sowell is one of the truly great intellectual’s of Our time. He has been overlooked, neglected and suppressed by the mainstream Media. His work should be required reading taught in every school discussed and debated by those with passionate viewpoints. Only then can We appreciate the full value of His intellect, insight, foresight and discernment.

I don't usually watch reaction videos, but when Thomas Sowell is involved and dropping knowledge, I know the reactions will always be good. The guy is a living legend.

"Many people choose wrong because it is easier." You are spot on. Very wise statement. 👍🏼

Thomas Sowell is 92 and still brilliant. It’s a shame so many people don’t know who he is. He should be required reading in school.

Sowell is the giant who nobody will ever be able to stand on the shoulders of, completely irreplaceable. My respect and admiration for him is unmatched. I’ve read every one of his many books several times.

Thomas Sowell is an American treasure. He grew up in Harlem, and is currently a Professor at Columbia University. Everyone learns from him US history that weren't taught in schools.

[shawnpilgrim]

Thomas Sowell is not only one of the smartest men to ever call America home, but he’s always one of the most humblest men who could have been so much more, but decided to live by his values.

[GrayghostAlpha]

I genuinely believe that Dr. Sowell is one of the most brilliant minds of the 20th century, and I'm always glad to see more people being exposed to his work. From one seeker of truth to another, keep up the good work.

"People when they hear the truth it bothers them, because they're taught to believe one thing but then they have to learn another completely different reality it confuses them and makes them feel lost and mad". I agree with you 100! Particularly if their own personal identity is aligned deeply with that belief system. It is confronting. Nicely observed Jamal.

I remember a couple of my history teachers actually just showing us Roots for our lesson on slavery. I remember thinking that it was strange that Europeans just showed up like hunters and captured random Africans for slaves…. Human history is complex and we need to acknowledge the actual history here. We don’t need myths.

[cecedubois]

A lot of people go by the motto: "Don't confuse me with the truth, I already know what I believe."
But Thomas Sowell brings the truth, everytime. He's a national treasure.

[curtis]

Thomas Sowell is one of America's greatest thinkers and as a black man I was confused why he is never mentioned in the black community. I understand now, its because he doesn't fit the liberal profile and tells the truth about history. I love the man and know he is in his latter years, and I hate to think he eventually will be leaving the planet to be among the other great heroes of the world. I use his books and videos as sort of a mentorship.

[vincevasquez]

It's absolutely amazing to see Thomas Sowell start to reach a lot more people. We need more intellectuals like this these days.
