This is Karen Hunter and going to class every Saturday with Doc Carr and it's what I if this was class when I was in school

I probably would have stayed I would never would have left school I just it just it

is so fulfilling but what I'm learning is how to think and how to broaden my

perspective you know I was raised in the era where there was Booker T versus W.E.B.

You know for a lot of my growing up, I'm part of Talent to 10th.

And then I grew to appreciate, you know, through talking with my dad actually about this whole building from within, you know,

because he was, you know, low-key militant, even though publicly he presented himself

very, very well. And there's something about that right as I'm reading

brook a tea i think was crafty from this standpoint that he knew white people

he knew them up close

and he knew that while we're out there fighting for rights, the rights they would never give us.

They would kill us first.

And it's, and it's, you think about Tuskegee, which is still in existence to this day. You think about him being in the middle of

Lynchtown and they didn't touch him and some would say it's because he was sell out and you know

he was Uncle Tom but I as I watched him he

gave a whole platform for George Washington Carver to come up with everything he

had a name profound love of black people but he also understood the

the depravity of whiteness right and to protect that he had to walk a tight rope

now he had a little misogyny built in and a whole host of other things that I'm

imagining were just ingrained in him as a person born in bondage. But there was something

really genius about what he understood.

Yeah.
