veryyyy cute.i like it.

Thanks

Trying to create the dialog is great....but she has a point about not trying to budge someone that isn't intellectually willing to talk about why they might be racist.

It can obviously go any which way (no matter what gender, race, creed). I think it is important to have the conversation, but with people who can manage your presence. I don't think you were wrong....just a bit too persistent with the wrong people. It's always all about respect, even when you aren't being respected.

Nicee

If they are expressing an idea out in public then they should be prepared to talk to anyone from the public with a different viewpoint. Otherwise, what's the point?

I want knowledge and understanding for everyone...but I don't believe it is something that can be forced onto someone. I agree with you that we should all be open-minded with conversations in public.

For all we know...it could have been a simple misunderstanding that could have been probed at differently.
(EX: I may have asked 'Why do you not like white media?) Maybe his answer could have been something to the effect that white media likes to take what he says out of context. Maybe the answer would not have been that, but I might not have been as confrontational about the reverse racism right toward the beginning. Nor would I have tried to go back for seconds.

We're all different and I'm not saying that the way I would have handled it is better than what Adam did. I guess that is why we all have our part in this competition for ideology.

But the second time he went to speak to someone else and this person got in between them, like she was the other person's master.

Yeah...I don't think it was an example of self-ownership.

Very good

Support anti racism .. support freedom

Support

Thanks for your support. I wish many , if not all, people support the anti racism

I prefer to drive most places so I must have been missing the racism on the streets. That's a crazy video man, it reminded me of the Melissa Click thing. if you are protesting something then you should want to talk to all the members of the press you can so you can spread the righteousness of your cause not follow an obvious directive to not talk to the media. One wonders who is paying for their outrage and why.

Mr. G Soros springs to mind. Peace.

and please tell me how he attains (and attained) all his counterfeit currency?

Beautiful activism

Support morals

Another fantastic piece of journalism. As usual the proponents of Black Lives Matter cannot debate you as they have no solid basis for their claims. If they deny that their movement is racist then they are left with nothing on which to substantiate their beliefs in such a movement for at its core it is racist. I do not think Dr. King would have got far if he had limited who he talked to in the media based on the colour of their skin. Peace.

It's ok to be white.

Can't you envision Christopher Cantwell's reaction while watching this vid? LOL

Ignorance is typical. Emotions are draining the spirit of grace @adamkokesh we welcome white people in South Africa and would like to have you conduct some interviews with me my sir..

I fully support confronting racism any way possible at all times. I am of the view that the oppressed are always right to fight the oppressor in any means they see fit.

The problem that line of thought is too many people scream racism when there isn't any. And some times people claiming to be oppressed are not being oppressed, they simply aren't getting what they want.

That statement itself is a racist statement. Being alive in the US in 2018 as a minority is being saturated with oppression. Instead of condemning the powerless, or calling a group "them" (eww), try using empathy. Try getting out of your own perspective and seeing the world through the eyes of someone who has to live everyday fighting for each shred of power they have.

At the very least, try and start believing a group of people when they scream racism. Especially when that group has been screaming the same thing for 300 years.

Try living some where other than the US for a while and you will discover what racism really is! In Africa for example people are often hacked to pieces because they are from the wrong tribe. Slavery still exists in Africa and parts of the Middle East. Arab countries hold thousands of blacks and asians in slavery. The US just had a black President who became President because a lot of white people voted for him. Many of the highest paid athletes in the country are minorities. Many of the top doctors in the country are black. Blacks are in positions of power in industry, sports, politics and the media. If you are waiting for the day when everyone sees things your way, you will wait along time. Use a little empathy yourself. I know blacks who immediately assume every white person they meet is a racist. THAT is racist!
