More from Cornel West
"I'm a Socratic gadfly, a prophetic witness, and a blues-inflected intellectual."
"To be a Christian is to be a prisoner of hope."
"The blues is not about sadness, it's about courage. It's about resilience. It's about hope in the face of despair."
"The American empire is crumbling from within. And it’s not just economic, it’s spiritual, it’s moral."
"I'm a Socratic gadfly, always asking questions, always challenging assumptions."
About Cornel West (born 1953)
American philosopher, public intellectual, and theologian (Race Matters, 1993; Democracy Matters, 2004), now teaching at Union Theological Seminary. Closely associated with Henry Louis Gates Jr. (Harvard Black-studies collaborator) and Toni Morrison (literary peer and friend). For an intellectual contrast, see Larry Summers, economist and former Harvard President — Summers's 2002 confrontation with West over rap-album recordings, summer-school grading, and political activism led to West's high-profile departure from Harvard for Princeton. The clash became the public face of competing visions of Black scholarship — celebrity public intellectual vs traditional academic gatekeeping.
