    Ta-Nehisi Coates. A fascinating individual. Hearing his take on racial issues is very refreshing. You're not going into the conversation expecting normal conversation about race you're going in with a much more deeper understanding of it and coming out like "okay I think I have a better understanding than I would have with any other person who talked about it"

    @@firstlast9846 In what is bound to be the most quoted passage from the book, you write that you watched the smoldering towers of 9/11 with a cold heart. At the time you felt the police and firefighters who died “were menaces of nature; they were the fire, the comet, the storm, which could - with no justification - shatter my body.” You obviously do not mean that literally today (sometimes in your phrasing you seem determined to be misunderstood). You are illustrating the perspective born of the rage “that burned in me then, animates me now, and will likely leave me on fire for the rest of my days.”

    For all those wondering why the Daily show isn't covering the war in Ukraine, I have a theory. It's certainly not because they don't care , and I don't think its Trevor's personal choice not to cover it, but my belief is that the higher higher ups don't want him to yet, the daily show is supposed to be a comedic news channel, you receive news, but comedy is thrown in here and there to lighten the mood, and make the news overall more entertaining and less serious, but with what is happening in Ukraine along with the uncertainty, there is nothing funny about the situation, in addition the way the daily show normally broadcast its news stories are in short summaries of the situation and then onto the next story, the situation in Ukraine is not simply a topic than can be mentioned for 5 minutes and then glossed over for another story, hence why I think that at least for now, the daily show is choosing to let the more serious news channels cover it.

    Yeah. I've seen some Ukrainian viewers who were less than pleased that war in their country is part of other comedic late night talk shows. Which is a very valid point. I also recognize American's have a culture to joke about aweful situations even when the situation is about them. However, war is a whole other level of aweful. It's a line I wouldn't want to walk either.

    Conversations like this are rarely heard. It`s rare to have a talk show who is so literate, and black. Across from him is a very thoughtful literate and educated writer, who is black. Both men express themselves extremely well, both men have experienced racism, but in different ways. Man, this may have never happened before, in the whole history of television.

    This was a very interesting conversation. I like that Trevor said he was a big optimist and Ta-Nehisi was not. I love Trevor and I realized his level of optimism is different from other comics. And I bought Between The World and Me and didn't get throught the 1st chapter. It felt so different than the way I like to think about things. I felt like he was trying to convince me of how awful life was for me. Maybe I'll give him another chance.

We could have a whole discussion about the fraternity of the presidency and where they went to school, etc. But Trump won because he is an excellent entertainer and his whole strategy was just to give the people what they want. He was a strawman for the Republican party and no one thought he believed in anything he said. His opponents didn’t take him seriously or took him too seriously. Trump is one of the greatest conmen of all time. But most of the people in power are just rich white guys.
