The most amazing feat that progressives ever did, was convincing the general public that they're the one's who aren't bigoted, and that their opponents are the one's who are, while pretty much using the bigoted ideas of yesteryear with some limp wristed changes of language to disguise it.

I’d actually argue that that expectation in school may be the best thing that the school can do for such a student.

I was born and raised in California. Grew up in a town that at the time was roughly 30% Asian American, 65% White American, 5% Other. Growing up I was raised color-blind. The cultural differences between the sects of whites and asian americans I never thought of as cultural differences, just gow people in their family do things. Reflecting on it now I recall going to friends houses and seeing cultural traditions from: Vietnamese, Chinese, Indian, Japanese, itallian, Jewish, German (me), Russian, Australian, Mexican, Irish (my bestie), and Greek. I am sure I experienced others but those are more in my core memories. I miss the days and am frankly excited to see someone supporting color-blindness. When I moved to go to college I was told to leave for bringing up color-blindness because it was considered racist. I think the biggest irk I have is cultural appropriation discussions. I am almost certain that is because I grew up seeing people and their families at barbecues, birthdays, and sleep overs, not how this culture or type of people do things.

They say its only natural for blacks, latinos, and all other non-whites to collectivize under race. To look out for each other solely because of skin color and gene sharing. They tell you that race isn't real, and that whites aren't real. They tell you that there's nothing special about belonging to an ethnic group if you're wrhite. They tell you that if you identify as white you should become a white traitor and dismantle whiteness to live in solidarity with other ethnic groups. They tell you that the idea of maintaining white ethnic group is racist. They tell you that non-white ethnic groups need money so their individuals, and through them their groups, can thrive. They tell you that there was no vaccine mandate to derank whites access to shots. They tell you tucker carlson lied about white exclusion for the shots. They tell you not to read the articles on cnn or affiliate news sites for NBC and CBS which detail how numerous hospitals told whites not to get shots. They tell you that we shouldn't live in a world where hard work exists, because that's whiteness. They tell you that we shouldn't live in a world where meritocracy matters, because it holds back non-whites. They tell you that whites should be wealth taxed (like the N's did to the Js in 1941), because those are ill gotten gains of white privilege so we need a reckoning. They tell you that theres no plan to replace white ethnic groups despite the attempts to move masses of non-whites to white countries like england and america. They tell you that whites aren't being endangered at an ethnic level by a continued transfer of wealth from whites to non-whites through taxation and free stuff. They tell you that whites just arent having enough babies because they don't feel like they have the money to have a baby. They tell you that systemic racism is when a purportedly non-racist policy has disproportionate impact on one ethnic group or racial group compared to another. They tell you that taxation which disproportionately pulls from whites to pay for non-whites isn't systemic racism designed to reduce white survival, while they tell you that laws which are colorblind but impact non-whites more reduce non-white survival. They tell you that there is no anger or hate against whites while they read Whiteness Not My Idea and the deal with the devil whites made for power over all others, just like the N words of WW2 stated of the J words. They tell you that they are only seeking to be treated fairly while saying whites should give up their territories because resistance to it is racist,while they decry all times in which whites took territories from other ethnic groups in spite of their protests. They are playing to win for their ethnic genetic group. You are not. The tolerant always are wiped out by the intolerant. When I heard the FAA nominee say "I want the future of america to look less white", I understood these people. They are filled with hatred toward your very existence. They dont want whites in politics in white countries, but they sure want blacks to represent the black majority in black countries. Open your eyes and your mind. The liberalism will wear off if you read this daily and remind yourself of exactly how they're behaving. These aren't people looking for equal treatment. They're looking for subjugation under the claim "its just fairness".

I grew up when color-blindness referred to people who perceived hues differently, as proven with an Ishihara test. And then weirdos hijacked the term, while REAL color-blind people screamed "No" and "Stop" but were ignored. And as predicted, now the name of my disability is a slur. That's just great.

it started in the 1980s. They started the racial quotas favouring blacks back then in all kind of things, like forcing companies to hire 50% blacks in areas where the black population was only 10%. And to give it a veneer of being moral and ethical called it "positive discrimination" rather than what it really is: discrimination against anyone who's not black, aka black supremacism. And it's only got worse since. In the early 1990s my father (and his company) were sued by the government for "not employing enough black people" (in specific, high paying, positions within the company). The SOLE reason the case was grudgingly dismissed by the judge was that my father went to the trouble of submitting ALL graduation records for the required (by law) education for that job from the last decade in the country, which showed not a single black person had graduated with the legally required degree to be hired in that time frame, IOW it was impossible for them to hire a black person for the job as none such existed!

Thank you Coleman -- a very thoughtful, dispassionate and fact-based account of corporate hypocracy at TED. Regrettably, the cult of woke is cutting a rather wide path through this society and has sadly become engrained in many of our institutions. I will make a point to view your initial talk, as well as your debate. Your candor and your courage to push back here are certainly appropriate and very admirable qualities. BTW, as you may be aware, Jonathan Haidt and his Heterodox Academy speak to this idiological clash with extensive research data and a unique clarity of mind.

No, TED did right. He is betraying TED as he betrayed people, specially black fellas. Flag as hate speech. There is something called historical reconstruction laws, and if discrimination goes up, it shows that diversity and inclusion laws are working correctly, generating pressure. When power starts diversifying to all races, obviously the race relation is gonna go down momentarily, because privilegiests are losing ground. The solution is always invest in education of the old ways. Flag as hate speech, this doesn't belong in youtube. Attacking himself profiting his skin color to attack a historical fight for freedom, all for personal gains, to have some views, clicks and being a "TED talker". Flag it.

This is what we blacks who are centrists/moderates, conservatives, and independents are going through with the black radical left collectivists.

I suggest reading an article titled, "No Truce With the Left", by Daniel Greenfield. He expounds a bit on that. Soooooo many people just don't understand.

After 2 years as a Sociology major at a California college, I realized that the ideological and dogmatic nature of the coursework was NOT GOING AWAY. I found that the most enthusiastic and highly credentialed professors shared a similar background. White and relatively young, from small towns in well-off, monocultural neighborhoods. Any pushback, let alone thoughts and ideas that I offered based on books by Sowell and others, and my own experience growing up in low income, and highly diverse neighborhoods of 70's-80's San Francisco, were quickly shut down. I hoped as I progressed I would "earn" the right to challenge some of the theories. At least have a dialog. As well, question some of the research conducted to reach some of these theories. For example, I know (from experience) that a Psychologist/Sociologist spending time working with prisoners, might mistake rapport/relationships with peer acceptance. They will conduct their research asking questions of inmates without much consideration of their motivations and manipulative nature. I won't say every inmate was disingenuous in their responses, or that the studies were all flawed, but it's very easy to understand what a researcher in this setting wants to hear, or what type of responses might work in favor in the perception of an inmate. To avoid going on and on, I think Sociologists are mostly ideological academics who seem to have a savior complex. Perhaps some issues as well with their own identities and a desire to be part of a subculture or community they have romanticized. And, they're probably in fear. Of the WOKE MOB I dropped Sociology. I don't outright denounce it, as I think understanding the history of social structures, hierarchies, oppression, etc, etc, has definite merit. Understanding Marxism for example, has value. But to think Sociologists have the sway over academia, society, policy.. that they decide what ideas are worth sharing/hearing- It's frightening.

"puritanical" Stop slandering the Puritans by comparing them to the modern left. I'm half-joking, but fully serious in saying the Puritans are slandered by the comparison, and by that term itself. Though misguided as some of them surely were, the historical Puritans actually generally had a very healthy attitude according to reputable sources. To the point at hand, they were motivated by actual morals (something the Orwellian postmodernist left is incapable of having, and that's before analyzing the extreme immorality of their beliefs and actions) and the "joyless" label -- while applicable to the woke mob -- is a history revisionist myth about the Puritans.

I have so much respect for the most incredible black men and women in my life, not because of their skin color, but, because of their kindness towards me, their caring, their love, and generosity too. I'm God-Smacked at just how far we've come in the "opposite direction" away from "Color Blindness" and personally feel that it's done strategically and on purpose in order to cause MORE DIVISION, which is seemingly what has not organically happened, but, was something very much FORCED to happen.

The presence of a Y chromosome means you are MALE. The ABSENCE of Y chromosome means you are FEMALE. There are only Y sperm gametes and X sperm gametes. That is why only the MALE FATHER can determine the sex of the baby. INTERSEX people are either male or females. However, their genitals are abnormal looking, anomaly, congrnital abnormality and birth defect with incidence of only 0.00001% of the population. NATURE WANTS HUMANS TO REPRODUCE. INTERSEX PEOPLE CAN'T REPRODUCE because their genitals are abnormal, but they are still binary humans.

There are two groups that have obvious reasons to oppose color blindness, racists and people benefiting from being seen as victims. Often people are part of both of those.

I once had a guy tell me that billions of trans people were happy with their surgeries, and threw like 5 long scientific research papers at me that said nothing of the sort. Of course, i was burdened by reading them, and he felt smart because he used "the science." he got exactly what he wanted. Annoy me, look smart while lying, and when called out on it, he just shrugged and said "oh." Idea laundering is one thing, but what's even more absurd is when they don't even care about finding the truth. They just quote "the science" and give a self-satisfied smirk to the mirror.

When I took the time to learn how to embed a hyperlink in the KZread comments, he refused to read the historical basis for my idea, and refused to engage on how my idea might change things. It was all about demanding me do the work to show rigorous credentialism. When I challenged him on that, he said I was misrepresenting things. Lessons learned: Leftists never argue honestly.

Cogent and epistemologically rigorous as always. With people like Loury, McWhorter, Sowell and CC in your corner, you’re going to have a greater cultural impact than any TED talker. Well done. 👏

You are a class act Coleman. Never give up

Stay strong Coleman this will be just one of your many battles! Great job and thanks for taking on these challenging subjects.

Appreciate you for your voice and intellect, brother. Truly. I'm not much older than you but wish I was as wise as you are when I was your age. I'll be looking forward to your book.

Coleman is one of those rare individuals with enormous integrity. Unfortunately, the individuals at TED do not...

I’m convinced most people (more than 50%) are reasonable, rational and have been frustrated by the ideological nonsense over the past half-decade. Now that people are finally speaking up, I’m seeing these conversations garnering millions of views, continued by respectful and well-intentioned conversation. I’m seeing the same happen with this video and I thank you for being brave enough to speak with your positive intention. What I find odd is that these media companies are generally interested in “controversial matters” as they garner more attention. More attention = more money. As your topic is “controversial” (but not really) you’d think this would be a conversation that would blow up.

Thank you, thank you, Coleman. I heard you on the All-In podcast and hopefully this issue will have a far outreach!
