Ɔbenfo Ọbádélé Kambon “What Makes Black People Black” – what makes krakkkaz krakkk

This episode titled “Dr. Kambon on What Makes Black People Black” features Rev. Dr. Philippe Shock Matthews interviewing Dr. Kambon, son of the late scholar Nana Kamau Kambon. He argues that there are biogenetic underpinnings to racial categorization and supports this claim by highlighting the SLC24A5 gene, which scientists have linked to variations in melanin. He criticizes the view that economic or class systems are the root of social problems, claiming that these systems, regardless of their structure, always result in a racial hierarchy with Black people at the bottom. Instead, he urges listeners to consider the possibility that racial disparities stem from a biogenetic mutation.
