For once, I'm gonna be that person: Why would you link to an account called "AustralianRealist" and give him clicks when the Jason Black video this was excerpted from is right in the description?
edit for spelling, yikes, lol
i viewed the video without looking into the account or any links affiliated with it. the portion of the discussion i wanted to have is from this video, but i will post the full video from the black authority (of which i did not realize it was pulled from) in case anyone would rather reference that. in any case, the fact that an account from "australianrealist" is excerpting videos from jason black that has individuals connected to tariq nasheed is problematic in itself, to say the least, but that's not the conversation i'm interested in having.
i didn't know much about "race realism" before the video but initially the tone struck somewhere between cheikh anta diop's two cradle theory "ecological realism" and frank b. wilderson's afro-pessimism's "ontological realism" and was wondering if valid syntheses can be made, excluding the scientific racism pseudoscience that race realism weaponizes?
but even more, as it relates to the conversation i wanted to be had about this discussion, i'm curious about how different factions of black thought would take to taylor's conclusion: integration and diversity has caused more fractious problems than solutions and for those who desire, should be able to go their own way. he states in the video that those who want to mix, should be able to do so, but for those who want independent autonomy, he believes that is a viable peaceful solution to the problems of integration. he also states that black americans have an absolute right to america, not seeing it as a birthright to white americans only, and that black americans, who would prefer to go their separate way should absolutely be given our own land with full autonomy and sovereignty. he even claims to be a fan of garvey and quotes him. obviously this isn't full redress for the years of racial injustice but it's a move towards full sovereignty and land acquisition.
how would jason black, tariq nasheed, republik of new afrika, and garveyite thought think about this conclusion? not so much concerned with how he got there which i'm sure most would take issue with.
and how does this all tie into the ideological divisions between booker t. washington and web dubois?
in fact, this jared taylor seems to be the exact sort of southern segregationist that booker t. washington courted to build tuskegee and could this sort be leveraged to an advantage today?
these are not questions for you to specifically answer, just my thoughts around the general discussion that I wanted for this thread.
