Tim Wise is a cultural marxist who preaches racial hatred and class division. He does more to stir up racial hate than to heal it.

I bet he lives in a very rich, very white upper middle class community. Typical of extreme leftoids.

I might get negged for this but I sorta get a 2pac vibe from this guy. So much anger and energy in the way he speaks. I'd love to see more public speakers like that, instead of reading from a teleprompter like a fukking zombie.

I don't get why there is a need for this guy. Is his sole purpose to tell people shyt they already know?

I personally have never seen why even serious people show this dude so much love. He is only a notch above those dudes TWISM post that are always on 125th st.

You'd be surprised about the extent to which white people have no clue about the everyday effects of racial inequality. He mostly speaks to and targets white people as a white man. He's not the most sophisticated academic critic, but he does reach people who might not be reached by Black speakers. That being said, it's a niche- he found a way to make money on it.

I highly doubt his audience is all that different from someone who is Black saying the same thing, based on who I see cosigning him on tumblr,twitter,etc. If he was reaching a very wide and different audience that didn't have any prior engagement with what he was talking about my opinion would be different. But I guess my main beef is that he doesn't bring anything new to the table like academics who deal with race but are exploring new ideas as it relates to identity,gender roles, classism, economics, and internal community colorism among other things. There are so many academics I wish would get more attention but as you said he found his niche :manny:
