Respectful Debate Slaps Down Woke Excuses

This discussion was a refreshing moment of sanity where Glenn Loury calmly wrecked the woke narrative with facts and common sense. While leftist academics cry “structural racism” like it’s a magic spell, Loury dared to point out that culture, family breakdown, and bad choices also matter—gasp! He even called reparations a bad idea because it encourages dependency rather than dignity. The left doesn’t want that conversation because it doesn’t fit their business model of eternal grievance and government handouts. Instead of screaming about slavery, they discussed crime, fatherlessness, and education—the real obstacles to success. They even touched the third rail of liberal politics: non-marital birthrates and the collapse of the Black family, which leftists refuse to address because “feelings.” Oh, and affirmative action? They shredded it, pointing out it hurts more than it helps. This kind of open, honest debate is kryptonite to DEI bureaucrats and race hustlers everywhere. This is what real civil rights leadership looks like—less about guilt, more about grit. Check the full debate if you want truth instead of TikTok slogans.
