I watched/listened to this entire lecture this afternoon. It brought me back to the early 90's, when I found myself in Ward's classes over and over and over again. Still encyclopedic and passionate... and if you're part of the problem, he lets you know what's expected of someone who wants to become part of the solution. It's easy to see why the colonial establishment in this country is so threatened by his presence at a public university.

"They've forgotten they're colonized... well, you can't get much more colonized than that."
Priceless. I like his voice, it's very powerful. Thanks for putting this up!

No problem, Daniel. I was happy to find such an extensive sample of Ward doing his thing. Since no one can argue with the man on the facts (at least not to any significant extent), he had to be removed through political means. Such is the world we live in. And yet, he's not really gone, is he...?
