Sunny Hostin Accuses Black Guest Of Being A 'Pawn'

With class and grace and good ideas.

Agreed!

He didn’t destroy anyone! Hughes has no business even speaking on these topics in public. His opinions, which are all they are, are irrelevant. I believe he’s an immigrant. One of the many failures of the US education system is our reckoning of history.
Just as she may be inaccurate on some details of history so is he. Difference is her premises are correct his isn’t. 250 years of arguably the worst slavery system in human history, a bloody and violent reconstruction, almost a century of debt peonage, dozens and f thriving black communities destroyed, thousands of lynchings, tens of millions of black farmland destroyed, Jim Crow, Co-intelPro….
I could literally go on and most of the atrocities I mentioned happened well after slavery! But according to Hughes, and it’s not his idea by the way, a rising tide lifts all boats…., which is a foolish idea for many reasons.

@@robertwright4220 Their entire premise that someone is destroyed in a conversation reveals their emotional maturity level or more accurately, lack thereof.
They don't know that the goal of every adult led conversation is to resolve issues. Emotionally immature people believe the goal is to "destroy" the other person which is why they are so ineffective in reaching their stated goals. They want Blacks to vote their way but believe "destroying" (gaslighing) our take on our own lived experiences is the best way to do that.
The only real problem after knowing that is, why do we keep engaging with them when we know they don't want to get it?

@@CarlNipmuc Your points are well stated and accurate…! In social media, there’s this other trend of ascribing emotion in a way that attempts to deflect from the content of one’s argument while diminishing the individual, a form of ad hominem. “Why you mad 😡….”
As if to say, to simply express emotion about something or even anger is of itself something to be ashamed of. Even worse are the times when said emotion is applied where it doesn’t exist. It’s like them calling us victims by merely stating facts. I’m in a better position than most, but I worked hard to get here and I can argue that I would be better off if I were a white male. Traits that make people uncomfortable would be praised if I were white….
My point is, we must push against the narrative! People get frustrated in debates, discussions, and arguments because they go in unprepared! I’ve done the research, sat with the issues and thought through them objectively.
Therefore, I can easily dismantle people like Hughes while also recognizing the truths and inaccuracies or inconsistencies in his opponents argument. Objectivity, is somewhat of a super power with me at this point. I take certain positions and continue to maintain them based on the data and reality of what consistently presents itself. That’s why we engage my friend….

Classism is not a form of discrimination － Civil Right policy seeks to administer and rectify inequities based on the injustices made by discrimination.

You are right! But it can’t be solved until racism is dealt with. They keep trying to get pass it without dealing with it.

@@youtubepolitics5789 "Classism is not a form of discrimination"
Do you mean legally? In moral terms, I would strongly disagree.

Classism is necessary you can't be friends with everyone. This is based on values ambition and morality. A lot of lower class people are not interested in education or any type of real virtue.

No. People who complain about everything are the problem, especially the weak men. Everyone in the world has challenges. Who cares. Get over it and be a man already.

😂😂 Right! Like that made her ridiculous comments credible.

It’s a ridiculous appeal to authority.

I seriously doubt you're a Black person. Most Black people don't announce their Blackness before making an anti-Black statement. They simply let the syntax speak for itself. I doubt you know what i even mean.
I am neither an idol worshiper nor a hater so I don't base my opinions on who I like or don't like or "can't stand". Nonetheless, you condemn her for her opinion while lecturing her about allowing others to have their own opinions...do you see how you're being hypocritical here?

The only mistake she may have made is alleging he’s a paid shill for republicans! Unless you have facts of something you can’t allow that to become the primary argument. Hughes doesn’t know what he’s talking about! You all don’t really know history.

Maybe you should deeply reflect on the stances you have taken in life. Maybe they are more racially divisive than you are ready to recognize.
Lastly, in America the ability to progress is already based mostly on your socio-economic status. Socio-economics heavily favors one group of Americans (WAs) bc that group has long benefitted from biased socio-economic laws, unwritten codes of ethics, AND race-based incentives: all created to hinder other groups (like BAs). So what he's calling for is not some brilliant, ground-breaking, leveling of the playing field. It's a call to stick to the script. Something that sounds great to a Nazi.

You just made an excellent comment, and I generally like Coleman.

OMG Thank you for saying it! Poor white people will vote against their own socio economic interest, for the sake of race. Hence Donald Trump supporters. Obama left office and they thought this rich white man had their social economic interest in mind? No, a rich white man lied to them and they fell for it. Did Trump not also say the central park 5 were guilty even thought they were found innocent? How many black people were treated the same? And more on race being a factor of black Americans' social economic welfare, just look at how many ways race has affected our justice system for black Americans. Arrests and indictments, bail, guilty pleas, can't afford a lawyer, legal sympathy, convictions affecting future jobs or even home opportunities. That all impacts generational wealth.

Bingo!

"poor rural whites will gladly vote against these "socio economic policies", because it in large part will help poc's of similar economic situations"
I would like a source for that because your next example did not have anything to do with racial prejudice but economic policy

​@@jesusbarrera6916if you need an example. You should go read the color of law. Plenty of examples in there.

This is why "Killers of the Flower Moon" (written by two old white dudes) is such a poignant film. It's all class > race until racialized people are economic equals with (or even start to better) the dominant group (then you see what happens to the Osage or the Tulsa Massacure, which is also referenced in the film). The system of dividing people on race was specifically done so that poor people wouldn't unite and rise against the wealthy as the indentured white servants and black slaves had repeatedly done in Colonial America

You're wrong and misguided. You have unfortunately been brainwashed by a depressed community that doesn't want to hold itself accountable. All I see are a bunch of East Indians running fortune 500 companies, being doctors, running small businesses, and being engineers making money hand over fist. They are darker than your average African American and they love America. While they are make something of themselves, people with your mindset pee in their pants.

Thank you 👏🏾

How come Asians and Jews are most successful races in American then? Another hole in your logic is Nigerians that come to America are very successful. It has more to due with culture than race. Ana is right ignoring 50% of the country based on skin color is not going to help poverty. Yes on average people of color are more likely to be poor but that doesn’t change the fact that based on the number more white people are poor. If you under stand how averages work than if white people have more billionaires that doesn’t mean all white people benefit. Do all black people benfit when diddy became a billionaire?

@@bradadult2075 Americans whose ancestors were slaves were not willing immigrants to America (ditto unskilled immigrants coming from Latin America). The issue with using the success of more recent immigrant groups is the self-selective element. People who willingly chose to come to America or Nigeria are inherently driven risk takers (think of the enormous risk it takes to travel tens of thousands of miles to a new culture where you know no one). Of course people who are willing immigrants (particularly those who have higher education in their home lands) are going to be more successful. A lot of Latino and African Americans are the first people in their families to graduate high school (let alone post-secondary). Those immigrant groups have grandparents with university degrees. it's a false equivalency lol

And by admitting that the whole it's only a class issue falls apart.

@@roxyfoxyyy7 OK. However, if you still help the poor in Appalachia, that doesn't put an end to racially biased police brutality, close the racial wealth gap, address racial health disparities, disproportionate convictions and the sentencing of black people, particularly black men in the courts as opposed to white men who have been charged with the same crime, voter suppression, gerrymandering, the attack on programs that focus on educating students about diverse groups and hiring practices that are designed to ensure opportunities for people from diverse backgrounds. Those issues will still exist.

It can be easily argued that post George Floyd there is far more blacks can do and get away with than a white person can. The cry racism card is the free pass to do whatever they want.

Answers:
1. One (of the many things) is not being talked about and referred to in monolithic terms. "Black on black" crime is a perfect example of this slur.
2. Hiring quotas, while definitely not designed to fix the problem, were originated to address the UNOFFICIAL affirmative action for white men who in many instances, were foreman and supervisors over men who outranked them in every category except their skin wasn't the right color. We know this to be true because whites were openly racist towards blacks and would literally state this as their reasons.
3. Yes its called legacy admissions. See after the 1960's, whites could not openly discriminate without consequence so they began using code language to hide their racial bigotry. Whites only signs were replaced with "privacy" signs and "legacy admissions" were used instead of "this is a white school"

@CarlNipmuc Those are all old examples and have since been rectified. You can't be mad at an actual statistic that a minority of the population is committing the most crime. We've had a black president, and I don't know what position is higher than that here in America. There is nothing a black person can't do that a white person can. Get over the grift.

Then there's the added irony of how these same people whose equivalents in the past despised King now pretend that his speech about content of character was primarily meant to defend whites from being judged for THEIR color. And of course they completely ignore the socialist aspect of his politics (both conservatives and mainstream liberals ignore it; conservatives will focus on his Christianity and liberals will focus on his black identity) in order to try and use his legacy as a cudgel AGAINST the social justice movements of today.

You’re never getting reparations.. get over it .. never!!

Affirmative action and DEI is reparations.

@@TrevorMauk Affirmative action, while well-intentioned, has not been sufficient to overcome the deep-seated economic and social disparities caused by centuries of slavery, segregation, and systemic racism. These disparities are not just historical artifacts, but ongoing realities that continue to affect the lives of African Americans today. As Ta-Nehisi Coates argues in "The Case for Reparations," affirmative action policies, which typically focus on increasing diversity in education and employment, do not address the broader social and economic inequalities that exist.
Moreover, affirmative action has been criticized for benefiting primarily the middle and upper classes, while leaving behind the most disadvantaged members of marginalized groups. In "The Souls of Black Folk," W.E.B. Du Bois writes about the concept of the "Talented Tenth," the idea that the most educated and successful African Americans have a responsibility to uplift the rest of the community. However, affirmative action policies that focus on increasing representation in elite institutions may inadvertently reinforce this divide, rather than addressing the root causes of inequality.
Color blindness, the idea that we should not "see" race and should treat everyone equally, ignores the reality of systemic racism and the ways in which race continues to shape our society. In "The New Jim Crow," Michelle Alexander argues that the mass incarceration of African American men is a form of racial control that functions in a similar way to the Jim Crow laws, despite being ostensibly colorblind. Similarly, in "White Fragility," Robin DiAngelo argues that the idea of color blindness prevents white people from acknowledging and addressing their own racial biases.
The idea of color blindness also ignores the ways in which government policies have actively created and perpetuated racial segregation and inequality. In "The Color of Law," Richard Rothstein argues that housing segregation in America was not a result of private discrimination, but a product of explicit government policies. This history of government-sanctioned discrimination cannot be addressed by simply treating everyone equally under the law.
Finally, the focus on individual success and meritocracy that often accompanies discussions of affirmative action and color blindness ignores the ways in which systemic inequality affects people's lives. In "Evicted," Matthew Desmond shows how the lack of affordable housing can trap people in a cycle of poverty, regardless of their individual efforts. Similarly, in "The Warmth of Other Suns," Isabel Wilkerson tells the stories of African Americans who left the South during the Great Migration, seeking better opportunities in the North and West, but often finding that systemic racism and discrimination had followed them.

Yeah I know what you mean, I didn’t like some stuff she said yesterday about SBF and thieves and stuff (she was oddly light on SBF but harder on common thieves, I think she means like the LA thieves, mostly black and some Hispanic, who are stealing from individuals or doing crazy shit like robbing jewelry stores or gas stations or whatever which I get, but to me that’s a completely different thing from say shoplifting//petty theft/misdemeanor larceny of food or other basic stuff like toiletries or clothes or whatever from a giant corporation that has been in the fight to completely destroy/dissipate the labor movement and most peoples’ economic status and political influence as thus their abilities to live decent basic lives and self-actualize for our net collective benefit.
Ana’s lack of distinguishing these things was disturbing. And then, her doing this while yesterday also saying the 25 year sentence (only 21.25 years of which he’ll have to serve (some of which he may have already served, so more like 20 years now, assuming it isn’t lightened on appeal or that some change in federal sentencing laws requiring servicing 85% of the sentence occurs, or some [probably bribed Republican] president in the next couple decades grants him a pardon or commutation or whatever, all of which are definitely possible and I daresay even likely before 2045) on SBF who stole $8 billion from people, sure much of it from banks and big investors but also a decent portion of which was from normal average people who trusted him and wanted to invest in something to benefit their future and family. Ana then went on to say “well he’s not violent” or whatever, but didn’t acknowledge that the damage he did to peoples’ lives will probably cuz as much or more damage than many cases of serious felonious violence have (people committing suicide, falling into depressions, poverty, despair and/or addiction and all that can sometimes come
with it to everyone around them, and then the net social costs of all of this together - the thing is, if SBF was able to stow away even some small fraction somewhere across the world in one of the often tax haven/shelter nations with scant banking reporting laws or otherwise sufficiently obfuscated on one of the major crypto blockchain or in one of a thousand other ways that I know of and I’m not the son of Harvard lawyers and ‘crypto whiz’ intense computer nerd like SBF lol of just what he was convicted of fraudulently handling, like say $100 million, then a ~20 year sentence is ~$5 million/year and thus I would think definitely worth all the fraud he committed in the long run. And I have no doubt he stowed assets somewhere in some protected trusts or other protected situation with third parties or whatever on the order of tens of millions at very least, which will probably s as cutie compounding interest during his time in prison and in fact will probably be worth more than had he actively managed it in that time given his demonstrated ineptitude in that regard lol, so frankly even with the “harsh” sentence he was given, at a club fed minimum security prison of course, it will no doubt still have been worth it if you think about it financially since he’ll still have probably decades of life left when he gets out and club fed prison isn’t that bad, so ultimately the kind of behavior he engaged will not have been effectively punished and discouraged from happening over and over again as it will, so Ana was just plain wrong on that yesterday.
However, on the matter of this particular black guy in this context, she’s not totally wrong and her point about not listening to others’ opinions is fair enough and the black lady here did a shitty job of arguing her point to the extent she had one. I don’t think it’s particularly interesting or important though, and that’s part of the problem. Why focus on this? I’m just not sure it’s a wise or maximally constructive use of our finite time when we have much more serious problems to deal with than some petty bullshit that only emboldens the right and wrongly makes them think they needn’t question their I ridiculous overall positions on who they vote for and the actual policy and consequences that come from it, almost always against their own interest (modern Republican voters are generally working to somewhat middle, usually lower middle, class white people, the rich/upper middle class Rockefeller Republicans are a rarer breed statistically but they dominate the ruthlessly pro-ultra-rich policies of the Republican Party, the Republican Party does almost nothing to benefit them but they’ve been baited and fooled by fear tactics and disinformation and ultimately politically meaningless empty rhetoric).

*" I don’t know anyone saying white poor people shouldn’t be helped as well."* Well there some but yes, the majority aren't saying that specifically. Every solution solution however apart from a class based approached completely ignores them.

I know a lot of poor white people that I work with get positions because they know white people in high positions. Your race helps you no matter your degree of intelligence

@@adampike3834 yes, and yet a class based approach still doesn’t help the fact that my son is more likely to be pulled over by a cop because of the color of his skin. So, that’s why I said both are needed. But of course establishment dems don’t want to discuss class bc of the class they’re in. Racism is still a problem but solutions to racism don’t hit them as hard personally, whereas taxing the wealthy does.

How much of general society is racist, though?
Hard to say these days since anything can pass as racism.

Coleman Hughes SAID a colorblind society is wishful thinking. It’s clear you don’t have the capacity to even LISTEN.

Exactly. Colorblind society it’s not realistic.

Please name just ONE policy that would be more helpful targeting a sordid race than a specific class. Just one?

the only racists these days are people like Sonny and Whoopi.

White liberals have always been white first. The libs in my city vote for white politicians.

African-Americans want to be victims so bad

we have no allies

@@BasilMalik shut up

@@Flashyfinancier Make me.

Ana isn't worth trying to reason with.

Thank you for speaking up.

So where is he wrong?

Which ended in 1965... It has been addressed, you can't blame them now.

I'm black and I agree with Ana. So what's your point?

I'm brown. I agree with Ana.

here is your cookie🍪

With respect, I think that if you want to make a convincing argument, then you should present facts about the video that prove your point. She's just being fair. Also, we all have opinions that affect people who don't look like us - that doesn't mean that our arguments are invalid. What did she say that you disagreed with?

@@VR20524I was going to say the exact thing. I'm brown too, lean far left, huge Bernie supporter. Some of these folks don't speak for us. Ironically, many of the folks critiquing Anna are virtue-signalling non-minorities.

This guy is a grifter and a pawn, period. Blacks were never and will never be treated as equals in America. History and current affairs cannot be ignored.

How should we look at this problem?

Exactly!!!

@@KimberlyRansome Exactly..she gets up there as descent of Armenian heritage..who was forced basically to declare themselves White. Then diss Sunny for calling out the facts by talking about her sartorial choices. How dare her. Their are levels to racism. Just saying.

I thought it's whitesplain?

Helping Yts and blacks at the same time is a win win.

the left doesn't care bout white people. The poor whites were betrayed and forgotten. They are the most oppressed people in this country.

Okkkkk hello somebody lol

Wow the Democratic plantation is strong in this one

Name one policy that is better focusing on a specific race than a specific class.

I pity you if your IQ is so low you can’t see he has a far better point than Sunny ever did, the world should be color blind, don’t move backwards,

@@rudeboyjim2684 False dichotomy. Trying to compare race and class, and then eliminate one, is r****ded. This is what you white people do.

@@rudeboyjim2684 you are missing the point. Agreeing with Sunny means smearing people without argument.

Yup best believe it and leave behind

She has shown them for years actually

Spoken like a bigger tribalist than Ana will ever be.

Cenk, John, Francesca and Jayar are great! I was a paid member for a short time. I couldn't take Ana anymore and ended my membership.

Yeah, Ana just likes being a reactionary contrarian and she's doing it because she keeps getting praised for it by people on the right who enjoy the fact that she's embracing their right-wing framing on a host of policy issues. She's not going to stop.

Ana is complete garbage she whines complains about "identity politics" yet claims because of her identity as an Armenian American she can't support President Biden .

All she wants to do is play black people against each other for her on Trump benefit FTB

all lives do matter

Ah well, clearly that means we must dismiss everything said because some bad actors will try to hijack the message... By this logic we can dismiss every single idea.

​@@adampike3834if you don't understand white supremacy you will never understand anything in America if you are black. This guy also was preaching that blacks have lower IQs because this white nationalist wrote a book.

It's weird how people act like they can't see this

@@thatmanfromcleveland2835 citation needed.

They're just that desperate.

There have been more then one lately :D

She’s not hostile towards him but the subject he was bringing up bc it directly targets the delusion she promotes

Then you clearly haven't been paying the slightest bit of attention to the media for the past 40 years... It's ALWAYS "some people say" to avoid any accountability.

​@@adampike3834no matter how you spin it, it is still a misleading title.

​@@jmase19 I don't think that Sunny is delusional. She just has a different perspective to Coleman's.

Exactly!

Naw Jayar is too tamed. We need Rolland Martin.
