Building Independent Movements with Dr. Cornel West

Dr. Cornel West is currently running as an Independent candidate for the President of the United States and we’ll be speaking to him about building independent movements. We’ll be breaking down what’s at stake for us in this critical election year and diving into the importance of art and culture as a means to spark revolution.

If you haven’t noticed, we’ve been deep in our power building bag lately at Black Men Build and this conversation will be no different.

About Dr. West:

“He enters the 2024 Presidential contest at a time in which he describes a national crisis of moral bankruptcy and spiritual obscenity driven by a derelict duopoly of both major parties that equally places profits over people and the planet. West asserts that running as an Independent candidate affords him the opportunity and duty to deliver policy prescriptions incorporated by and for the people, instead of political parties beholden to corporations and special interest groups who feel no solidarity with poor and working-class people of all races, gender identities, and age groups.

The Cornel West Campaign to empower poor and working people everywhere stands at a pivotal moment in history, committed to being a true campaign for people around the globe. Our aim is and will always be to unite in solidarity with movements of truth and justice, who seek a choice beyond empire, white supremacy, capitalism, patriarchy, and the confines of the corporate-dominated two-party system. Regardless of your current political ideology or stance on policy matters, we sincerely hope that you can join us in support of this revolutionary political movement.”
