Watch now | This week, Eddie reflects on personal challenges and the overwhelming nature of current events, particularly focusing on the ongoing situation in Israel and Gaza. He discusses the implications of U.S. foreign policy, the domestic political landscape under Trump, and the ideological shifts in education. The conversation also addresses the complexities of free speech in the current political climate and concludes with a call to action for listeners to engage in meaningful activism.
Abolitionist Frederick Douglass on the death of Confederate General Robert E. Lee (October 1870):
“We can scarcely take up a newspaper… that is not filled with nauseating flatteries of the late Robert E. Lee… It would seem from this outpouring of sentiment that the South had lost all its rights in the rebellion, save the right to honor its chief...What was treason in 1861 is not treason in 1870. We are expected to join in the soft chant of adulation, to sing hosannas to the very men who trampled under foot the Constitution of their country, and waged war for the destruction of the Union and the perpetuation of slavery. While no man rejoices more than I do at the suppression of the late rebellion, I cannot join in this chorus of approbation. Robert E. Lee was a man of abilities, but abilities misdirected…The cause for which he fought and fell must be forever execrated, and the man, though possessing some virtues, must be classed with traitors and rebels to his Government. I cannot say now what I would not say then. As for his Christian virtues, if they have done anything for him in the sight of Heaven, let them be placed to his credit there. With the sword, he was the champion of a bad cause, and must be adjudged accordingly.”
Amazing, yet here we are....victors are supposed to write the history. Now the losers (traitors) are re-writing history to erase their loss...and the cause for which they killed Americans...
We can abhor the violence that took his life AND not celebrate the life he chose to live. He died on the hill he advocated others to die on. Thoughts and prayers. I say “don’t advocate for things to happen to others that you don’t want to happen to you.” Perfect example. What’s really sad, it’s not the guns. It’s greed. We have to die on the altar of guns so a few hundred people can feed their insatiable greed. We are a human shit farm where billionaires grow their wealth. Charlie was Frankenstein and his monster killed him
Excellent wrap up Eddie! Thank you. Continued prayers for your Mother. I pray that we ensure the Charlie Kirk activity does not distract us from the Epstein Files investigation.🙏
I think the regime's planned "patriotic civics" (designed by people trained in advanced whitewashing) is one of the most terrifying and terrible initiatives of Project 2025. We need to create strong counter-education based in the full truth of our history.
I will never accept CK’s view. He is a racist and misogynist. He wants women at the beck and call of men, without a voice, a vote and no consent needed. Fuck that and fuck Maga.
Thank you Professor. Still praying for your previous mama.
I always wait for you to explain to me what in the world is going on. I am not college educated but you speak so common folk like me can understand. Thank you. And God bless you and yours. Be safe

There is nothing new under the sun.

They want consequences for anyone who doesn't agree with them
Well said Professor!!!!
One of the smartest men on the planet.
You’re the best. Thank you for your intelligent response.
You are so right Eddie. Your moral compass is “spot on.” Thank you for being a steady voice in these difficult times.

True true…. But but…. Republicans AND Democrats …..
