One more thing. I wonder why we give so much credit to Cornell West, just for being erudite and congenial. I confess to having read a lot of his stuff when I was young and foolish. But his commentary on Claudine Gay, for instance, renders him a demagogue. It's as simple as that. And he really needs to run for President because Biden with his demagoguery about Jim Crow isn't black enough? West's entire act of incantation and calling everyone brother and sister has become repellent. The charm has evaporated.
