Cornel West on Race Matters in Art Education - Black History Philosophy Quote
16Dr. Cornel West is one of the most profound academics and engaging public intellectual thinkers of our time. Today we are inviting you into the depths of his brilliant mind by sharing one of Cornel West's quotes on how art can help change our world for the better. Dr. West explains how art can help you look at the world from a completely different point of view. More specifically he states that learning about African art may contribute to overcoming the invisible status of Africans in international relations. This speech shows how the lives of Black people and race relations can be improved by Black history education.
Dr. Cornel West is lifelong learner, scholar, writer, social justice advocate, and activist for civil rights who has been sharing his radical philosophy on life through decades of teaching at Princeton, Harvard, and elsewhere and speaks out on topics such as religion, race, democracy, love, and more.
Cornel West has famously guest stared on Democracy Now, TYT, Real Time With Bill Maher, the Joe Rogan Experience, CNN, MSNBC, C-Span, Tim Black TV, and more.
If our education system were to teach about African history and the art and cultures that have developed from that history, it would surely help our society to challenge racial injustice and to bring about positive change.
