security council's resolution providing humanitarian assistance to. remember. a year ago today because after two suicide bombers blew themselves up during the morning rush hour the president says all the suspects behind the crimes have been identified and most of them have been eliminated. to american civil rights activist cornel west he was once a vocal obama supporter but now says the president's recent policy decisions of the campaign rhetoric that got him elected in the first. dr cornell west is among america's most provocative intellectuals a princeton professor and lifelong pioneer of working class rights and racial justice. at this year's left forum conference in new york city dr west's appearance

truth thousands of activists aiming to revitalize the american left want to be there he was. once a vocal supporter of u.s. president barack obama dr west tells r t why his opinion has drastically changed dr west thank you very much for taking the time to speak with our team but that's the point here dr west you are one of twelve hundred speakers from around the world who have come here to new york to take part in the left for in this series theme it's called top words the politics of solidarity why do you think an event like this is so important one of the i just want to pay tribute to the visionary figures behind the left for me to play such important role in sustaining it we are now experiencing a were radical democratic awakening in the american empire in the united states deeply affected by what's going on in northern africa deeply affected by what's

going on in the middle east and more and more now is shaped by what is happening in madison wisconsin and columbus ohio and other capitals so that i think we've had so much sleep walking in the united states where of course. wall street oligarchs and corporate elites have been not just dominating but in many ways losing the use in billions of dollars from the public funds. and based on their financial shadow the shadow financial system. making be as in billions of dollars as poor and working people are pushed to the margins and i think more and more working class persons who thought they had a secure existence recognize that their plight is more and more time to the plight of poor people and tied to the plight of working poor people so yes we're experiencing now the early stages of

a kind of shift in perception in the united states that the west you have mentioned several times that americans are working harder than ever before they are earning less than ever before and the economic disparities in this country are deepening and deepening. you call yourself a critical supporter of u.s. president barack obama how would you assess his readership and particularly president obama living up to the promises that he made when he became president but i think that he has now aligned himself with forces that promote the abandonment of poor people and the neglect of working people so i would characterize the obama as a charismatic version of american exceptionalism with a keynesian neo liberalism at home and a liberal neo conservatism abroad which is

a say he's the friendly face of the american empire abroad and internally he's a centrist now leaning for the right. and he's in the process actually of becoming very sadly a pawn of big finance and a puppet of big business and that's a very sad assessment because he's began with such magnificent democratic rhetoric during the campaign is greater at sea. in there in summers in the holbrooke and others on the foreign policy. it was clear he was recycling clinton knights it was a neo liberal reconstitution and it was a very moment in which we could have undermined the neo liberal consensus both domestically and and internationally he decided to reaffirm it in reconstituting or thousand respect after arrest americans did know where his campaign contributions

were conning from because true it was clear and transparent and known that goldman sachs and other wall street banks were making very large political donations to obama put but ordinary people gave a lot of money to them so they had all the need we thought that it was some balancing because yes he got big money from goldman sachs to get big money from wall street oligarchs then you get all this financial and spiritual and moral support for maybe people and a trade union movement so you would think there would be some counterbalancing and that's what we have yet to see in the two have years and of course right now it's just a preoccupied reelection dr west our poll came out just a few weeks ago indicating that confidence among americans are is that a thirty five year low that brings us to a card or era presidency i mention this because i know that you are planning an

event for early april and you're calling on all americans to take part in this event from what i read is about empowering the people of this country to fight back against the corporate rule as you call it can you talk to me about this event that is actually led by my dear sister the very distinguished professor an activist of francis fox people and we would be a judge and memorial church two o'clock to the fifth would be and hundreds of schools will be piping in. zero in on the p.g.a. and. we'll have a dialogue for two hours or so then they'll have another hour to have dialogue to focus on local issues all around the nation and it is an attempt to reinforce this radical democratic awakening is taking place in the united states very much by our brothers and sisters in wisconsin colors but also connecting it to quick picks of

foreign policy making it to critiques of white supremacy connecting it to critiques of male supremacy connecting it to teach that homophobia connecting it to critiques about the symmetries of an era of racism but most important would be a quick peek of american imperial policy in american. economic inequality do you think the growing consensus among americans right now is that there needs to be a mobilization among the people to bring about change that change can come through the leadership of one man i think that is a fundamental message but i mean on fortunately that was say here in the campaign two thousand and eight it's never about one elected official it's really about the people organizing and mobilizing but at the same time we have to acknowledge that these companies wall street oligarchs and corporate elites tied to not just the financial and corporate complex i'm talking not just tonight but the materials to

accomplish. to the prison industrial complex tied to the in pain meant corporate media complex makes it very difficult for people to believe that we can make a difference and that's that we're here at this left forum to let people know we can make a difference we have in the past we do now and we wield in the future. if
