Most infuriating falsehood is Dr. Cornel West 4Prez is “vanity run” who did “photo op” in Ferguson.
No public figure stands w/OTG activists more—& it ain’t close. In 7/2014, it’s career suicide to be at #FreePalestine rally—worst vanity choice in history
“Photo-Op” claim doesn’t come from Ferguson activists who I watched hug the shit out of that man cuz by Oct2014 big media left but not the brutality. He used his celeb to BRING BACK cams to daily fight after world moved on. How come no one else famous wanted these “photo ops?”

Dr. Cornel West via @SabbySabs2 defines Classical Ed. “from Socrates to Toni Morrison, from Sophocles to James Baldwin”. Thread to debunk bad info:
Besides bad faith critics who said Dr. West “endorsed” Ron DeSantis or his Ed Plan, many in good faith took 1 article line out of context from his long-time support for CLT. Few cite his article LAST year citing FD & MLK after Howard dropped the classics. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/…

Media: “Kellen is a genius and would be a top head coach candidate”
I’m old enough to remember sports media pronouncing Adam Gase and Chip Kelly offensive geniuses. Kellen Moore exists in a long media tradition of unearned white privilege
