Remember when interviewers use to let people talk...?

Thomas Sowell was 51 when this was recorded. He looked like a 30 year old.

40 years later...and we are still having the same argument....this man should have been president.

I wouldn't debate Thomas Sowell if his mouth were taped shut. He would just take off his glasses, stare at me, and my arguments would fall apart under his gaze.

Thomas Sowell isnt a conservative necessarily..hes just an honest economist

And 40 years later we are still debating the same racial and gender misconceptions.

It's not a coincidence that Thomas Sowell is trending in 2020 amidst the Black Lives Matter uproar.

I'll give that woman 10 points for asking a question and then shutting up while Thomas spoke. Good luck interacting wit a feminist in such a manner today.

This guy is as smooth as they come. No stuttering, no pausing, just spitting out facts and shutting down narratives like it's his job. Men like this are sorely needed today.

The decline of intellect and respect over the years is apparent lol
@UnchainedEruption 7 years ago

Sowell's like 10 Ben Shapiro's in one. His face is almost saying, "Really? Is this even a question at all?" He's bored by how stupid the supposed "problem" is and how easy it would be to show the lack of evidence.

"It's not my opinion, the data indicates..." That's funny, I hear Jordan Peterson being forced to say those exact words all the time...

Why does the black community claim they don’t have any role models? This man is an extraordinary example.
@spleenware 3 years ago

40 years and we're still asking dumb questions and ignoring evidence.

Back in the days when interviewers asked intelligent questions.

"Human beings are not random events." I've never heard this Sowell quote before and it might be my favorite.
