Dr. Cornel West is an American philosopher, political activist,
social critic, author, and one of the most influential
intellectuals of our time. With a legacy of activism dating back to
his childhood and decades of scholarship on race, class and gender,
Dr. Cornel West has a wealth of insight on challenging injustice
and protecting the rights and freedoms of the most
marginalized.
As people all over the world continue to grapple with the legacy
and consequences of racism, there is a sense of possibility - that
this current moment could be a unique opportunity to address
persistent, deeply entrenched injustices. Whether or not that is
the case, according to Dr. West, depends on every single one of us
and how we choose to respond. In this episode of The Search for
Racial Equity, Dr. West shares his wisdom on advancing justice and
equality, as well as the importance of truth, love and justice in
the struggle for racial equity.
The Search for Racial Equity Series is a global forum offering an
in depth study and dialog of racial equity and justice, through
forthright discussion and a syllabus that intends to amplify the
most authentic and powerful voices of our time and of this
movement. We aim to create safe spaces for the most important and
authentic discussions.
