Dr. Cornel West and Tavis Smiley came to J&R Music World to play selections from Dr. West’s recently release CD Never Forget: A Journey of Revelations and to speak about the CD’s purposes. As Dr. West eloquently put it, “… this CD is a dance-able education.”

In his remarks about the CD, Dr. West stressed that the music is to bring a higher state of awareness to young people of how their lives and their music fit into a long and profound history of soul-stirring, enabling music which has sustained Afro-Americans through adverse circumstances.

Dr. West’s collaborators on Never Forget: A Journey of Revelations include Talib Kweli, Prince, Darryl Moore and the late, Gerald Levert, among many other current stars of Hip Hop and R&B music.

Both Dr. Cornel West and Tavis Smiley posses terrific oratorical powers which energized the crowd at J&R Music World, 23 Park Row, New York, NY. The following video is witness.
