I absolutely see race, and agree saying your "color blind" sounds stupid. But I deal with people as individuals, not members of a collective. Why? It's just natural I don't think about it. Also I know I don't want to be treated as a member of a group or collective, I want to be treated as an individual, and I think most people want to be treated as individuals. We're all trying to size everyone up. Trying to establish whether or not someone is a threat, or potential enemy, or if someone could be a potential ally or friend. So yes I see race, but I've no real preference based only on it, there are lots of people of my own race who look like a potential threat or enemy. For one example, right or wrong, I'm usually suspect of someone who has a lot of tattoos and or piercings, especially if they have neck or face tattoos and or have things like their nose, cheeks, lips, tongue, or eyebrows pierced, or have those huge disks in their ears. So yes I do make judgements based on appearance. If you put 10 people in a line-up 9 are black, and one is white, but the white guy looks like an outlaw biker, with all different sorts of neck and face tattoos, dressed like he's an extra from the movie Mad Max, I'm going to be more suspicious of him then I am the black guys.

My husband was in a leadership role in the military and had called out a civilian woman of color who was repeatedly showing up to work late and taking excessively long lunches and breaks. He counseled her on these things and had well documented these occurrences. She decided that he was racist and went to the EO representative, who was also a person of color. Long story short, he ended up being mandated to write a letter of apology to her and was subsequently transferred to a different role in the workplace. After he began bringing up his concerns in how it was handled, it was affirmed that he, in fact, was the one with a legit EO complaint. He was discouraged from filing an EO complaint due to the fact that he was a white male. This was in 2016.

Don't be so easily bamboozled. Coleman is an unrepentant liar. He blatantly keeps saying that Anthony Timpa received no publicity and therefore no justice because he was White. Of course, Coleman knows better. It’s been incontestably proven that the cops lied about how Tony died to coverup their culpability. They also effectively suppressed almost all the records about Tony’s death, including the video of what happened, for three years, allowing all the cops to be cleared of wrongdoing criminally, whose official report of the incident said Tony “died by unknown means.” Since everyone knows that it was the video of Mr. Floyd - that surfaced almost immediately - that forced the Minneapolis Police Dept. to reverse its coverup, in effect, closing the door on what had worked to tamp down the Tony Timpa incident and exonerate its officers; yet, Coleman keeps lying and saying it is because Tony was White that the media and other interests didn’t care about his fate. Coleman is a liar, and as a scholar, it is obvious that he knows the real story but persists in lying to bolster his lame Marxian income redistribution argument first broached by MLK.

Since in western nations PoC don't hold as much either they can't be racist only prejudice. I myself used to think this but now I've flopped back to the old definition upon further reflection. I'm not really sure about either definition tbh though. I think we need a new one.

Wow. This articulates what I struggled to express while working in Corporate America. I couldn't understand why I couldn't align my values with participating in 'Women in IT' and other DEI events and committees. They felt forced and insincere. As a female, I began to feel like more of a target or a mere tool to enhance the company's image. I witnessed women being promoted beyond their capabilities, which led to a decline in productivity and collaboration. Additionally, I noticed my male colleagues becoming apprehensive about being genuine around me. As an ethnic woman, I felt pressured to participate in and lead these events. When I declined, I felt as though I was jeopardizing my career and blamed myself for the issue. Perhaps I was part of the problem, considering I no longer work for a corporation. Putting words to these emotions, as Colman has done, validates my experiences. Thank you, Colman, for your insight, and Chris, too, for engaging in this controversial discussion.

@LOAisMagic As a white man trying to make a corporate job work in today's world I would absolutely love to, "be a mere tool to enhance the company's image". Instead, I was promised a promotion, strung along for months (nearly a year), and then explicitly told the job was going to a minority/woman because the lady whose position I was applying for was Latina; Additionally, we had just lost a black female assistant manager whom received a promotion to store manager. Suffice it to say I did not get that job. After explicitly being told I was passed up for the sake of DEI I was obviously not thrilled. I harbor no resentment against the women who received promotions. They were both hard workers, especially the lady who was promoted to store manager. In fact, I vociferously advocated for her getting that promotion when asked about her performance at a staff meeting. Once I'd been outright lied to, I decided to leave that company. You may be tempted to think, "Well, he just wasn't as qualified." While I won't go into specifics, I can assure you that wasn't the case. Now, a year on, I still cannot find a job. Despite never having wronged anyone, being wholly committed to a rigorous work ethic, and supporting others when given the opportunity; My reward for upstanding behavior has been to be passed over by employers, treated like the enemy by women, and cast as the evil white oppressor by society.

This sounds great to me.

She's half Afro-Cuban and half Cambodian by the way. She got a disorderly conduct charge, and decided that I was to blame and divorced me, and took absolutely everything. Nobody cared or upheld my rights or the law for me. Why? I am a heterosexual, middle-aged, educated, white man. So in this f$cked up society we live in now... I'm the epitome of everything bad and evil. I got zero protection under the law, and I can't get ANY help from the so-called "services" for homeless people. NOBODY will help me. I have watched countless people come months and months after me and get all the help they need... countless Hispanic and African American people. For me? Nothing... and IT IS because I'm white. So yeah, racism affects EVERYONE. I've had many black people out here on the streets literally say to me "they're not going to help you. You're white." And they are absolutely correct.

Woah, I never heard of anything like this happening in the area before, can you elaborate? What did they say?

I really enjoyed this interview and Mr Hughes perspectives. However I feel that his comment on the view about not ruling out voting republican as long as not a Trump republican, leads me to think he’s missing one big data point about 2013 race relations going south. It was Obama, he was extremely divisive during his second term. Remember this “If I had a son, he’d look like Treyvon”. Meaning Presidents do matter and it seems so ironic that a black man was elected for a 2nd term but all of a sudden we were the most racist country.

I was an EO investigator for DoD, DoA, and Dept of Veterans' Affairs, 1990s, I find that we are going backwards, and racism by definition is being practiced, on the left side of the political spectrum.

Once, I gave a speech on gentrification for a real estate course in college. My goal was to be entirely factual and honest. At the end of the speech one of the questions I received related to how gentrification's effect of forcing people out of their home's in certain parts of Atlanta was a race issue. My response was that while yes, it could be looked at as a race issue as it predominantly effected black Americans, the deeper truth was it was a class issue, effecting all low income Americans living in the area. Looking back I can only imagine that trying to make this distinction, even a decade ago when I was still in school, was most likely viewed as racist. What it comes down to is, if it doesn't benefit the particular individual's day to day life, they would rather not hear about it and instead focus on whatever may.

The powers that be want multicultural, divided society. They thrive in it.

Coleman is correct. But, there is still the question of why people persist in making and seeing race as the issue. As you will see, this problem has been debated for a very long time in the following quote from the founder of Tuskegee: “I am afraid that there is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don’t want the patient to get well, because as long as the disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living, but also an easy medium to make themselves prominent before the public.” From “My Larger Education” Booker T. Washington 1911

A lot might miss this, but I believe he is touching on the aspect of encountering people in everyday life. I shouldn't put on 'kid gloves' when I approach a stranger solely on seeing their skin tone. It's either patronizing, or stereotyping.

Coleman is insightful, thoughtful and wise for his young years…and Chris did a wonderful job in this interview with him that gifted us more nuance and depth about race politics. This was an important conversation that ignites critical thinking and challenges creative possibilities when thinking about race & race policies. In contrast, Coleman’s treatment on The View was an example of the close-minded neo-racist ethos he tries to warn about in the book. The host Sunny Hostin attacked Coleman and lectured and slandered his character when she said, “…if I’m being honest with you….you are being used as a pawn by the right. You’re a charlatan of sorts…” And Coleman, a 28 year old, handled himself with dignity and grace in the moment with this 56 year old woman co-host who lacked respect, curiosity and kindness and resorted to gutter-level behavior and displayed neo-racist capture. Instead of actually interviewing Coleman to hear his views…she came fired up with her staunchly held preconceived ideas about race and attempted to shame, humiliate and belittle Colman--the man --she didn’t even give the ideas a hearing. It was very ugly to witness. Kudos to Coleman for maintaining his composure.

Coleman Hughes is absolutely one of my favorite speakers. However, I would like to hear some of his thoughts on non-racial issues, as he has more of a leftist perspective whereas I lean to the right, but I like to have my views challenged by someone using logic and reason and not just sophistry.

When a man of Coleman's caliber says "two flying fucks" it just hits a little harder.

I know he isn't interested in power, but i would seriously vote for this dude for office no matter which political party he decided to affiliate himself with. This is the kind of young, articulate and rational purveyor of Western liberal values who we need.

The biggest problem with racism is this obsession with racism. In reality, racism isn't any different from say tennis players would find affinity towards other tennis players. I am a Chinese-Canadian, and when I went to miami 10 years ago, I felt so much connection every time I saw an asian person because they were so rare; but when I went back to China, every time I saw a non-Chinese person, I felt so much connection because we had more similarities than compared with the majority. That's really all it is. The problem is when people have no compassion or empathy or moral values, and so they are violent, or they take advantage of certain groups of people for their own benefit. That's the problem, and sometimes, race is the pretense for this problem but what we should be targetting is violence and discrimination, not racism specifically, or "body shaming", or whatever else western woke liberals like to box things in today.

​@@LemarFrenchThe definition of racism I grew up with was discrimination on the basis of race. So you had to actually do something bad to someone for an example of racism. That's why the term was so derogatory. They slowly changed the meaning of the term while maintaining the stigma of it.

Coleman articulates a truth many people can sense but don't yet have words for. He's going to get huge after his appearance on The View.

Coleman has consistently been one of the great voices on race, with a nuance and logical approach to the subject. It’s a shame the masses are captured by social media as a source for news and information, it will be our demise if it goes unchecked

2013 is the same inflection point where Jonathan Haight found depression and suicidality in teens flourished. Social media boning up life again. Thanks zuck!

Coleman Hughes is a great guy and can help us solve many problems if he gets our support.

1000% agree 👍 Judge a person not by the color of their skin, but the content of their character! Its like saying don't judge the book by its cover. ❤❤❤

Coleman Hughes, you are a voice of reason in this distorted, modern society!

I don't think that right now there is a person I admire and love listening to more than Coleman Hughes. His composure, his calming voice, his intelligence, his balanced ideas!

So grateful for introducing me to Coleman Hughes ! I live colorblind . My measure of someone has very little to do with the color of their skin and everything to do with whether they are an asshole or an OK human being even if I don`t agree with them.

I prefer using this phrase: "I don't identify as my race. I'm an individual. I see individuals".

it has been a steady increase over the years of compounding things. being an older person and seen it, i think its going to get a lot worse before it gets better.

Judging another first by race diminishes everyone- both the judge and the one being judged- ‘color blind’ doesn’t mean ignoring racism- but as Coleman says ‘you can’t cure racism with racism ‘. Coleman is so thoughtful and considered in his views, policy makers need to hear this ❤️

Why has this been sustained? The Internet algorithms, as marketing generally has done since the 1950s, responded most strongly to the age cohort 18-24. Even more so, the age cohort 12-17 respond even more strongly. Emerging adult minds think differently than fully mature adult minds. They are more emotionally reactive. Eventually, today’s 18-24 year olds will age out and ask the intelligent questions about race and all that, but right behind them are a brand new crop of young who respond vigorously to the actual incentives of social media. Social media feels juvenile because it is for juveniles that social have been built. As long as social media continue to stoke the dopamine flames of the young, or those who are not able to emotionally mature (personality disorders and the like), we will continue having the problems we have. The rest of society, since the 1950s, continues to focus on the younger mind because they are the perpetual emerging market. Everyone older seems to have their minds mostly made up about products and politics. Youth, especially 18-24 year olds, are catered to in ways no other age group is. What we have is kind of a Lord Of The Flies society. Who has the conch now? The same thing happened with the “youth culture” of the late 1960s.

Chris, another fantastic guest. As per usual a good, honest and interesting conversation. Thank you both!

Coleman Hughes is a wonderful thinker - a hero of our time. We need more inspiring unifiers like him who have real, workable solutions to racial prejudice.

As one gets older, one looks for the broad implications of policies, the unintended consequences and the overlooked stakeholders. I have learned that almost every situation is much more complex than it appears, and it is important to anticipate various potential outcomes. A is not just followed by B. There is also C, and then D, and some benefits in the short term can result in drawbacks over the long term. It seems that the education system focuses on a lazy path to a solution. Tick the box and move on. Decide on an ideological stance & dig in until the dogma changes. Where is the analysis of competing stakeholders, cost benefit versus expenditure? Where is the balance between one person’s options and those available to another person? What could go wrong? There are so many issues to consider. I have found that the best way to see the big picture is to investigate what the critics of a policy or issue have to say. The enemies see all the downsides that the promoters may gloss over. The promoters raise issues that the critics won’t mention because it undermines their positions. So, knowing that every issue is probably more complex makes it less appropriate to just accept the easy path. It will be more rocky than your footwear can endure.

Coleman Hughes: Harbinger of War. Great episode! Always love seeing what Coleman's up to since learning about him in The Free Press

Such an important conversation. Than you both for having the courage to go against the grain in service of truth. I will endeavour to follow your example, though treading carefully, as I work at a sandstone uni where even my own expertise in my own specialism doesn't go down well when it's against the cultural zeitgeist... 😬

#1 going to buy your book! #2 you need to find a way to get your message in policy, my vote is yours if I can ever support it.

If anyone wonders why we look for truth from sites like Chris Williamson; I just saw Colman on the "The View" and sure enough, he was "indirectly" called a charlatan and a pawn of the right (ouch, that must hurt) and put in his place with "I'm not only a student of Dr. King, I know his daughter Bernice" and "Bernice said." So, when called out for making an ad hominem fallacy by Coleman, she counters, "I just wanted to give you the opportunity to respond to your critics" (it wasn't me), real passive aggressive shit. At no time on the view did they weigh the merits of his book (which I just ordered on Amazon). As a young man I didn't fully understand the statement that rhetoric is the enemy of truth, but watching Coleman disarm them, with a calm collected argument..., truth can be very persuasive.

@4:00 As an American, I've watched UK media for a long time and I notice that I can definitely zero on a British person's class just by the way they talk too... it's gotten even more accurate since KZread. We do have an upperclass/educated accent in the U.S. too but it's more subtle than the British ones... usually educated Americans speak with more rhoticity, avoid regional affectations, and inflect in a neutral way, while being relatively soft-spoken. You hear it in colleges, hospitals, courts, etc all the time.

I agree with Coleman and find him to be mostly objective. I say "mostly" because I was taken aback about his comment about Tucker "obviously liking" Putin. Why obviously? Because he interviewed him and he spent two weeks showing a different side of Russia?

you forgot a big detail about confronting fears. its not about just confronting it repetitively, if someone forces you to confront it, it actually does the opposite and makes you fear the confrontation even more!!! its about confronting it by your own choice and effort, without anyone trying to push or force you.

Chris and Coleman are part of the solution. Wickedly handsome and smart young men are part of the solution.

Everything that Coleman says about the failings of the mainstream anti-racism movement can be also be used to criticise the mainstream feminist movement. It concentrated on well to do middle class (in the uk sense) concerns to the detriment of working class women.

This individual is exceptionally sharp. Firstly, colleges and the issue of the great migration pose significant challenges. The colleges that have contributed to this problem must offer a clear path to education for anyone facing disadvantages. I grew up with a drug-addicted father who ultimately lost his battle to addiction-addiction knows no race. Despite wanting to become a doctor, my socioeconomic background didn't provide a clear path for that aspiration. Colleges possess substantial endowments that could be utilized to increase classroom capacities and offer opportunities to individuals of all races-black, white, and brown-to compete for job interviews based on qualifications and level the playing field. Fortunately, I became a self-employed individual who seized opportunities, now employing around 70 people, with starting salaries of $65,000 a year. Understanding the human condition is essential, something these public figures should research thoroughly. Labeling someone a charlatan doesn't benefit anyone. Additionally, Dr. King's daughter was just five years old when he was tragically killed, so being in the bloodline doesn't automatically make her more of an expert than someone with an Ivy League degree. Social media has had detrimental effects on society, contributing to issues such as infidelity, arguments over perceptions, and a decline in overall productivity. Sunny, you must ensure you have your facts straight before accusing someone of being a charlatan, especially when you claim to fight so vigorously for your own people. "The View" hosts should be more responsible in their discourse. - I made this more about the view as it was an interview I watched.

Thanks Chris! Coleman is a wonderful young commentator and theorist. We appreciate this work.

Tbh theres been many times in my life where I've met someone and literally "not seen race" because my attention simply didn't even go there. That happens a lot less now because race has been drilled into my mind through media and whatnot to be such an important thing, such when i see someone it does come to the forefront of my attention now.

This is the podcast I was listening to when a semi decided it wanted to be in my lane, in just the part I was currently occupying on I-465. As I spun across 4 lanes of traffic, questioning all my life choices, Chris' voice did have an oddly soothing effect. Also, color blind with regards to race is the only way to be.

It was explained to him that all new trainees were asked to make tea for everyone but they made the complaint anyway. Luckily they got nowhere with it but they felt emboldened to believe we were racists and they deserved an apology and recompense.

Love the show. Would love it even more, if you would post links to the studies you reference in the show. I have (sometimes quite intense) discussions with fellow students, and it would really help if I don't have to do major digging to find some study, that was mentioned at some random point in a specific episode. Thanks for the great content.

The detail of someone with the “defund the police” placard in their front garden adjacent to a private security sign really reminded of the film the purge, where the upper middle class family puts out blue flowers to show they support the purge and then have a complete lockdown security system for their home as does their entire neighbourhood

i went to an inner city school, i was the only white kid, among natives/asians/blacks. I 1000% garantee you can be colored and racist. I was tormented constantly for being white. I dont think defunding the police was entirely bad, what killed it, was they didnt reallocate those funds to services that help people from committing crimes in the first place. We wouldnt need as many police if we had more services to help the mentally unstable and addicted.

It doesn't work like that. It's not just poverty that causes people to commit crime but a culture of violence and a moral network that is corrupted

I agree with many of Coleman's ideas. But I have a question about the preference for a socio-economic solution. Welfare payments , food stamps (WIC) and other non-racial compensation have failed to reduce poverty or racism. Coleman's ideas are noble,, but when applied to real people they do not solve real problems.

Excellent. A hearty thank you to you both. 🌿

Don't be so easily bamboozled. Coleman is an unrepentant liar. He blatantly keeps saying that Anthony Timpa received no publicity and therefore no justice because he was White. Of course, Coleman knows better. It’s been incontestably proven that the cops lied about how Tony died to coverup their culpability. They also effectively suppressed almost all the records about Tony’s death, including the video of what happened, for three years, allowing all the cops to be cleared of wrongdoing criminally, whose official report of the incident said Tony “died by unknown means.” Since everyone knows that it was the video of Mr. Floyd - that surfaced almost immediately - that forced the Minneapolis Police Dept. to reverse its coverup, in effect, closing the door on what had worked to tamp down the Tony Timpa incident and exonerate its officers; yet, Coleman keeps lying and saying it is because Tony was White that the media and other interests didn’t care about his fate. Coleman is a liar, and as a scholar, it is obvious that he knows the real story but persists in lying to bolster his lame Marxian income redistribution argument first broached by MLK.

Coleman is so well spoken, happy to see him on the show!

Just watched clips from the view and immediately sought out more content from Coleman Hughes.

What I hear and see often, at least on the internet is the talk about black/white culture. Is there such a thing? I don't think of race simply because there’s only one race. The human race. I see color. Doesn't matter. This color emphasis is very American.
