Stumbled across this quote from Dr Sowell. Sadly it’s pretty relevant.

I've never heard a Sowell line I didn't like.
Me neither. Makes me happy to see a lot of young ppl discovering him thought YouTube. That’s how I got into him and Milton Friedman
I love Friedman, I find myself thinking of his "you care more about the motive than you do the result" line a lot these days.
But Sowell has such a wonderful, accessible writing style. If Thomas Sowell had said things liberals wanted to hear, he'd be a household name in the Western world.
It goes to show how much incentive there is for academics to have the 'right' opinions. like that fake Tolkien scholar who praised Amazon's LotR, and immediately gets hired to consult on a LotR video game.
I don’t trust any Tolkien scholar who praises that show. But yea it’s a shame that people like Kendi get much more press than Sowell
