Does black power exist, or is black power an illusion? This week Joe & Pat break down a clip from Dr. Amos Wilson speaking on black power. Remember, Dr. Wilson wrote the book The Blueprint To Black Power. The lecture is used to take a critical look at the situation with NBA player Kyrie Irving. Irving is being punished by the NBA for a tweet that was deemed racist and hateful. The punishment Irving is receiving is unfair, but what can black America do about it? Dr. Wilson is speaking on how group power influences individual power. If a person who represents a powerless group engages in conflict with a group of powerful people, the individual will most likely be dominated. With that being said, is black power an illusion?
