The 75th anniversary of the United States Nuclear Attack on hiroshima ive got to say angela davis on this show endorsed endorsed joe biden in november so im chomsky is endorsed joe biden do you think that joe biden will save us from another Nuclear Conflagration as we commemorate the dead of hiroshima were you do my duty to the world at the juju just did my own government because. Were all of course now weve got it military units round were russia and china have 30. 30 weve got 4800. 00 military units in the whole world including the United States are they more senior legacy is one in which we have to take very seriously the relation between the poverty and all that militarism at home and abroad the unbelievable a materialist im a spiritual decay indium cards were talking about and then of course the White Supremacy not just the black beat but Indigenous People brown people arabs muslims jews per iranians and so forth so that just and loudest as angela i am quite had trying to trash his coalition so i could see bowling for biden in a swing state but i could never endorsed an architect of the largest mass incarceration system in the modern world that will target poor people disproportionate black and brown poor people or was or bragged about being part of the architecture of the invasion occupation are iraqis over after me and precious iraqis feel on it it us and made it an occupation not a mumbling word. From anybody for the most part in the Republican Party yes there are some except Bernie Sanders and racan do except barbara leak but for the most part not a moment were so i love. And i may have fact if the f. B. I. Had a choice between a deal liberal disaster or the o. S. Task i would go to the older would disaster that so bite me it was a neo liberal disaster his milk is mediocre he has a new liberal centrist and he tied to wall street hes tied to pentagon hes tied to militarism and he was very much responsible for what is jewish and all races prison system that was still coming to terms with in the killing fields on the killing fields of american get killed and barrio so that. Were what were at on president moment run we really arent we really want to pivot. Lomas in the history of the species to species itself to go under given that the logical contest a priori Nuclear Catastrophe weve got is the leading levels of wealth inequality that are out of control that rediff runny muck and then the levels of corrupt shun me i think for example oh the great dust is kids were built from underground all the sick man im a spiteful manama pleasant man out got a Liver Disease americas a sick impact is a spiteful impact its a most unpleasant empire weve got another one of what human beings on the inside weve got some woman on the inside weve got a magnificent courageous and visionary citizen on the inside but we are losing. We are losing were resisting but were still losing the greed the hatred wall street pentagon is they are in control of the empire and they are taking off and the sad thing is that rest of the world has to deal with some of the ugly consequences and effects but im not im not despair im not paralyzed but despair but im very honest and candid about the dark of course your President Donald Trump would be the 1st to say that iraq was a mistake he would have said only the other day that one of the United States greatest mistakes was to be in the middle east he may not share your a ideas or the hedges of many about Climate Change but hes the one whos saying intervention has been wrong that Foreign Policy has been wrong and he even argues that mass incarceration is a is a biden policy is an obama policy. For no President Trump has facilitated even more intensely vicious treatment of the precious palestinians he is not just include when its in yahoo need yahoo being the reactionary ceria leaders in awful big to the core and has no feeling what so ever for precious ousting as here trucks are like white on rice like wet on war he also facilitate the kind the bishes treatment of our precious brothers sisters in yemen mediated through saudi arabia mediated through the elites on account where you beat an accountable. Prince a monarch and princes and so forth so that when he talks about is he got a critique of the United States in the middle east hes lying again yeah the states has blood on it and in saudi arabia and yemen has blood all its an intel a beat in gaza and the west bank i dont know what hes talking about when you talk about with the United States should never have intervened you know this is always already is offering those armies could not. Exist it is really me and saudi arabia without us support without imperial support and when we invite we invite israeli ambassador we invite is there any ambassador london on the program but at netanyahu would certainly refute any charge of violence except in selfdefense and britain which played 550. 00 palestinians behaviors in a one month period spare me we were born at night but not last night but this is exactly what a cowardly leech what on principle powell would gates to say could be a trip in italy ill be at mo d. Be it was a narrow in brazil be at the hungry were seeing the gangster is a shot of the world moving toward real fascist rule and thats where our duty must be and of course truckers d are also oh that way he fastens well you mention saudi arabia britain together with the United States applies weapons that are used on yemen britain says it has a robust on selling policy and its not responsible for running war crimes of any kind in yemen. Sounds like another russian position that would period least dont want to take responsibility for the damage from well for their own savitri its fascinating how the barry authorizes the devastation claim innocence that innocence itself was already a crime before we get to the concrete crimes oh barbarity too often as a result of imperial activity be it britain france be it United States be russia be it china all empires and the look of the grand inquisitor dusty heskey using that miracle and mystery and authority into magic rationalization mr mckay should in order to justify tyrannical acts despotic acts antidemocratic acts that subordinate those last known call every day people and im a radical democrat emetic crist always start with the plight and predicament of the wretched of the earth the old who are priceless and precious but those who are viewed as disposable poor and working people all around the world of matter what color no matter what National Identity weve got to be internationalist cross the border with blessed be with my roma brothers this is yesterday and not dealt with by those as of yesterday off not going do it oh because the power outage but we have to have International Solidarity in the name of will morality and spirituality that we will not just empathized be a solidarity with those who were against predatory capitalism we are against almost all be a trad phobia in the form of White Supremacy any form of promise supremacy in the form of patriarchy if i see that ideology or what were about a nation that loses sight of the precious humanity each and every one of us and thats just not an aspect idealism that a way of being in the world thats as a verb or even more than a virtue being an action being part of Peoples Movement in order to push back the forces of evil whatever form those forces take. Yeah just to have skin characters tend to have something epiphany but the people that got trump elected apparently working class people whod lost out because of globalization how do you see all of those different identities of politics l g b g q rights race how do they work with clus because surely to some people the reason trump could win is precisely because of the working class traditionally that base from which progressive politics is a much nobody youre right now of course those is good politics have to be called into question thats it so i can say insight into his literary genius that were talking about but at the same time youre right that it was working class folk who were misled by truck because the working class was so devastated under the neo liberal rule of obama that did he deliver for last reheat deliver for it not the liberal working people working people were looking for alternatives are Left Green Party you know it was part of the support it are left in america is to weaken free so when you look for an alternative the choice is between on the one hand the other but we get a ruling class and they are fastening it really exists all the truck acted as if he was populist but its very clear he tied big money he tied it big military it will go to most vulnerable in terms of mexicans muslims red indians black folk and gays live in a trance and he is able to connect with enough of the White Working Class 65 percent white men vote at the drop 52 percent white women who have a truck so youve got a race show art here youve got a racial trajectory just going off now we have magnificent White Brothers sisters who are part of the black class method we have been in the white. Part of serious struggle against White Supremacy but they got a lot of. And that causes i easily misled by the straw man. And this is of course a challenge to plato so in the republic he said show me a democracy d and ill show you citizens who were shot through with the ruling passion and ubiquitous ignorance now will result in the rise of a strongman to rise the tyrant the death played on the republic going all the way back to 360 some b. C. He had it in sight even though he was a great critical democracy in a democracy because it killed mentors upward each he had an insight how do we get to the working class how do we get for fall so that theyre not misled and marched off all continents so theyre not channeling their existence in a way that reproduces their own no question reproduces their own domination we see this all around the world fascism very good at listening to the same thing it looked at the same thing frankel did the same thing these are new islam the fascism of the present but so on are kind of checks well in terms of trying to ensure the misleading every day because they are separate meetings orders are deeply suffering but they rather scapegoat the most vulnerable in terms the degraded. Black. Lesbians and arabs and muslims and immigrants and mexicans rather than confront the most powerful president how as ill just stop you have more from cornell west often this break. Thinking of getting a new gun the ones we got in her shell come around watch this video and still trapped in this tiny little wired how much were going to need a crate with the wall. Reaching out and she will want us freedom anywhere near and thousands of breeding dogs are caged in the inhumane conditions on puppy farm i mean 67 years you know theyve been locked up in a cage outside you see no protection from the weather the heat you know the cold air the rain the snow the thunder nothing they have no protection. To take care of you. Its ok. Across the u. S. Cruel puppy mills are supported by dog shows and pet stores most of the puppies that are coming from these large Scale Factory farming kind of operations are being sold and at stores even joined a good businesses are involved like cargill among santa there has been a shocking amount of the organizers opposition to adverts to increase the standards of care for dogs bred in commercial breeding for so many most of that opposition is coming from huge agricultural groups and industries that have nothing to do with dogs dont buy dog on o. T. A short term of gold and american air play on hiroshima. State not claiming any thing and some Political Class that got stuck with the one how until you do know that chin its. I like most americans growing up after the war the bombs were a great thing they ended the war they say hundreds of thousands of lives on both sides and thats what my grandfather always said was his reason for the decision. Truman was hoping for a dual strategy runaway as to drop the bombs and hope that japan would surrender to number 2 the americans were trying to send a message to the soviet union there was american poor planning on the recommendations 45 have chosen 20 targets in russia. Welcome back im still with professor cornell west if we move up michael us is theres something wrong with the elites in your society i know you. Talk about f. Scott fitzgerald before do they read the great gatsby is a great tale of you make it in this world youre going to do well what is wrong with education in a country that has pretty used so many critiques that i guess echo what youve just been saying yeah im glad you brought us Scott Fitzgerald up because he understood it course he went to princeton and im interested right now he understood the spiritual teaching in the oracle kuti of the ruling class not all but most he understood they substitute prosperity for magnanimity they have hardly any sense of moral excellence and spiritual greatness is reduced down to things simple is excellent commodity and it reminds me of the greatest figure. With Eugene Oneill and the iceman cometh the greatest american empire ever written for the state in what did he say what does it profit a nation that gained the old world to lose it so all the idolatry which is obsessed with. Re power well status and spectacle with no moral or spiritual substance that is a moment for the american get it thats the home for the decline and fall of the american empire thats what Eugene Oneill was talking about and eat and ask up is general very close on the same register in terms of seeing through the emptiness and but cooties so much that what American Life in this obsession with the general pleasures and military power and status and the inability to at the deepest level this is shakespearean this is. The suffer from the inability to cultivate the capacity to love the love less ness. No matter how much money you have no matter what your status is if you cant learn how to receive love 2 give love that those yes your brothers your most of the bond hail as those who will suffer from the incapacity. And death of marching understood i come from an equal black. 100 years in the United States but did you not so much love John Coltrane tony martin be love it Martin Luther king love who are just to be one to love and to need the love we have got reach all yes we all got to be frank he loves life the whole lives with us hopefully available you are on your website i didnt even get out of here i know you know the people that have listened to coltrane the people that have read these works many of them are in the d. N. C. We know from wiki leaks how they tried to destroy Bernie Sanders campaign in 2016 and they didnt feel they didnt feel what they were doing was anything to do with fascism they thought it was to do with stopping fascism so they say i dont dismiss israel around this time because they try to emulate i thought as being the candidate what do you how do you characterize the d n c as as a system in your politics what i mean it is in more trouble now its out been because their ears in fact tremendous critiques of the status and Democratic Party it looked as if after the november primary that Bernie Sanders and all of us together minturn or others that we were going to when we were really beginning to move in a way that we were headed toward the white house then the. Yeah logical unit facilitated by rock obama with me we have rather all of them came together dropped out within a few days the black neo liberal leadership that is edge of money in black leadership we do money and black our tix came together and lo and behold we were pushed out we were defeated but let me say this that this stablish macnow very much like Republican Party establishment was undercut by a truck that young people on the street the black madam who they understand not just the limitations of the neo liberal leadership no matter what color but they know that it cannot deliver look at what a pandemic right now it cannot deliver safety it cannot live protection cannot deliver education cannot deliver goods and services why because the in part in shambles when you have so much greedy and corruption and indifference for the suffering with no public life no Public Health care no public. Robust public interactions and we cant even hardly have a public conversation what happens to a demographer you sleep on here then as you know and maybe you call them apologists for empire they will point to the black faces the people of color in high places they will talk about l. G. B. T. Q. People in high places maybe there are even some Indigenous Peoples in high places in american politics the American Samoa clive how dangerous is it that these people are installed there as a beacon to show that your view of america your view of the United States is fundamentally flawed because your country is a tale of progress. Well the good in of those is good has a wonderful mother who Crystal Palace went back they keep it wont do it back since edifice. Salient and is wonderful shy is glass menagerie well what happens when it becomes more colorful with races same class are same imperial policies same levels of poverty same levels of decrepit education same levels of unemployment and underemployment same levels up on the inability young assets to decent housing but its because youve got black brown women at the top at the glass menagerie in the Crystal Palace all really now behave themselves in not reproducing the same kind of deck it is the same kind of decay but now of course we. Race relations same way looking looking better you dont measure the plight of black people all women are brown people by how their elites are doing you know the play in terms of what the prisons look like what does neighborhoods look like what their employment actually is what levels of health care they have but thats precisely the attempt of america to shift serious talk about the plight of poor folk to the. Mobility of the net has to be radically called into question that is happening on the street right now in the u. S. In pop. But but in the streets i mean what is different about these uprisings since whats in los angeles in 165. 00 and before and after now were seeing images of tear gas or federal troops in there no National Guard it has to be sent. To your link of how black lives matter is the movement can in any way respond to whats going on if there are well if certain numbers of people are being shot dead in the streets or killed by Security Forces of the United States that alone frightened to go and demonstrate. Well i mean with the public lynching of brother floyd jr you certainly are going to have waves of resistance the beautiful thing is that you have the whole colas coming together and making the connection between not just police power and Police Murder but between police power least murder wall street power wall street crimes and pentagon power and pentagon crimes once you make those connections and connect to them are you cant make them up the mix may develop a could make the family look a mummy rabbi Abraham Joshua ash ash able to make. The greatest intellectual alone with no chomsky and been making for most of his intellectual life will once every day people begin to make those connections then were on to something those can actually be made more now than they were before and yet it really waves of resistance every wave of critique has its own distinctive staff and there is a certain kind of cycling is true the sixtys we had you know more people die it wasnt very much more black folk out we will more people die less people die here but now theres a cities unsettle and some president thats a good son after george ford was killed there were demonstrations all around the world in fact in the in love around the world there were there were demonstrations again multiracial into intersectional but london fall is washington on on Foreign Policy especially on apparently your biggest enemy china but what the white house says what gives what gives the d. N. C. And the r. And c. The confidence that china as you said surrounded by bases the United States wont retaliate militarily to what it sees as provocations by nato in washington. Yeah i mean its hard to say who he is how to say you can imagine what the Golden Rule International relations looks like. 2 russia had troops in mexico and canada you know it would last about 30 seconds so when you have american troops around who are russians yet to be very honest you know impound their empires and their concern about their people theyre concerned about it territory after all just stuck to the domination d when you can imagine what a one standard looks like in the same would be true with china when you when you when you begin to be provocative. Then theyre going to have different kind of responses i dont know what response will be as the as the acts of provocation intensify its hard to say but i mean right now weve got these 3 empires in a were china russia usa all 3 zone formed to decay domination all forms of dog and we have to be connected to radically democratic small d forces no empowering dissenting voices that are empowering working people that arent exemplary movements and by example what i mean is leaders of integrity will willing to tell the truth and will more than likely have to give their lives because those who are committed to the struggle for the wretched of the earth are on the road to crucifixion thats the way the world is but their blood our blood fertilizes the next wave of resistance and critique thats what we learn from that move. Well i suppose theres one difference between beijing most who in washington and thats the beijing in what moscow claim to comprehend the dangers of Climate Change whereas washington doesnt believe it would isabella what is the power of k. Street while being on the things youve been talking about and on perhaps the most texas tensional crisis we have. Fossil fuel effective Climate Change. Or i mean k. Street in general generates legalized 2 bribery a normal last corruption within the halls of congress so the brick house that is supposed to be done house of the people caters much more to the donor than the benefactors than it does the suffering people themselves thats precisely why so Many American citizens look at the system and the state and see it cannot reform itself because the money its overwhelming has been colonized by the lobbyists who are try to be late to financial elites just so that it makes it very difficult for those of us in the streets to feel as if we can actually have the kind of impact that we like but we do it because its right because its more and because its just and so when it comes to ecological catastrophe d in which the whole species the planet itself and you still have the greed short term thinking the up session with profit you can begin to see just how bouckaert predatory capitalism is for the species and in regard to our very presence. Reza what a west thank you thats it for this well that edition of going underground will be back on monday stacy. Was a pandemic no certainly no borders and just plowed into nationalities. In. The summer time with the we dont look like seeing the whole world to. People. Judge you know. Coming every crisis like this sometimes. We can do better we should be. Everyone is contributing to each of our own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenge is great for the response has been much so many good people are helping us. It makes us feel very proud that we are in it together.
