Are either Walter Williams or Thomas Sowell included in the blacks who matter?

I honestly don’t know but they should be at the head of the list.

The best Rush Limbaugh shows ever were when Walter Williams would sub for Rush and bring in Thomas Sowell for an interview.

Happy Birthday, Dr. Sowell.

Levin had Sowell on for an hour last night on his radio show. Mark told him of his great and early influence on his life. Most of the time Mark is ‘Pay attention, I’m educating you!’. It was neat to hear him pay tribute to a master.

Not true. I admire him, respect him, and appreciate him.

If anyone ever challenges me to say “Black Lives Matter” I will ask them if it is ok to say “All Black Lives Matter” or even “Lives Matter”. I hope that I am never in the company of any such challengers.

Dr Sowell (as well as Dr Walter Williams) is very appreciate in my household.

My daughter’s best friend married a black guy last summer. (great guy)

She emailed my daughter the other day and said she’s trying to get better educated on racial politics and issues.

I sent her directly toward Thomas Sowell, then Water Williams, then Clarence Thomas

For decades I hoped that Thomas Sowell would be drafted as the Republican candidate and elected president.

Guess it’s too late now. Sigh.
