0:00.0 | What's up y'all, and happy Wednesday. You know we always like to kick it, go back to the roots and our roots lie in Jubilee reaction videos. Today we're doing black conservatives versus white liberals, and we have many a familiar face on this episode, so I'm excited. Let's get into it. |
0:30.0 | All right, we're back. Happy Wednesday, guys. We're through the middle of the week. Let me know what you're up to right now. What's your week plans look like? We have Taylor in Nashville. |
0:48.0 | Happy Wednesday. Happy Wednesday, and we have Cam in the producer's day. What's up, guys? Now we're going to have an exciting show because we're going to get into a Jubilee middle ground. It's black conservatives versus white liberals, and I always love doing these and hearing what people have to say. And this one has many a feature on it. We have Xavier de Rousseau who works here at Prager U. He's representing the black conservative side. Alia, who was on an episode of Jubilee with me, I recognize her, and Destiny on the white liberal camp of things. So without further ado, |
1:18.0 | let's watch this video. I was chosen to read the following prompt. Why do Americans have way more advantages than black Americans? Okay, I'm walking forward on this one. I have to think about it. I mean, having way more advantages. I don't think so. I think we have different types of advantages in today's time, so I don't know that I would walk forward on this one. |
1:47.0 | I think the argument's going to be made that because of, you know, the history of slavery and Jim Crow, white people may carry on sort of generational privileges and advantages that black Americans don't have access to. And in some, in some form that is correct. But with how much time has passed and how we've really evened out on on the equality side of things, I don't know that I would walk forward and say that white Americans have way more advantages than black Americans. |
2:17.0 | They might also get into like socioeconomic status and things like that. All reserve judgment. I would hold back just because I can't, you know, endorse the way more message just yet. |
2:29.0 | Either of you walking forward for this one. |
2:32.0 | Yeah, the word way in particular makes it a tough sell to be able to say, like, you could say, yeah, there are those residual sort of privilege from carryover of the history of racism in the country and whatnot. But I think anything that is leftover wouldn't qualify as way more. And even if you were to argue that there is a lot leftover or some leftover it'd be offset by the privileges you get through affirmative action and things like that. So I would not agree on this one. |
2:57.0 | Fair enough, Cam. |
2:59.0 | Yeah, oh, that's Taylor. I would just tend to agree. Yeah, I think there could be some residual. But in general, I think most of the active discrimination of the past is gone. |
3:10.0 | Yeah, agreed. So we're all holding back on this one. Let's see who walks forward. |
3:15.0 | Black conservative. |
3:18.0 | White Americans have more advantages because they're white or do just white Americans have advantages because of historic factors. Great question. |
3:25.0 | I'm going to send a video volume is low. I need to crank it. |
3:28.0 | I think that the answer to your white in the past. And that's how it carries over to today. You know, even in times of the United States history where black people tried to build wealth, you know, with the Tulsa rides and everything where, yeah, that this wealth has been destroyed. |
3:40.0 | And something that's upsetting to me is when conservatives talk about how that we can't blame the past what's happening in the present. That is true to some extent. |
3:46.0 | But then the next breath they'll talk about how important it is to have dual parent households. How important it has it is to have a strong family to have responsibility passed on from parent to child. |
3:54.0 | And we've seen in the past that because of racial issues, that process has been severely disrupted. |
3:58.0 | The funny thing is is that agreeing with the. |
4:01.0 | It's so funny that I don't because of racial issues that process has been. |
4:06.0 | I don't know that I would argue that because of racial issues, that's why, you know, black kids aren't growing up in two parent households. |
4:12.0 | And, you know, they're not being read to his children and that the culture is not particularly stable in comparison to white culture. |
