Cornel Ronald West (born June 2, 1953) is an American philosopher, academic, social activist, author, public intellectual, and prominent member of the Democratic Socialists of America. The son of a Baptist minister, West received his undergraduate education from Harvard University, graduating with a bachelor's degree in 1973, and received a Ph.D from Princeton University in 1980, becoming the first African American to graduate from Princeton with a Ph.D in philosophy. He taught at Harvard in 2001 before leaving the school after a highly publicized dispute with then-president Lawrence Summers. He was Professor of African American Studies at Princeton before leaving the school in 2011 to become Professor of Philosophy and Christian Practice at the Union Theological Seminary in New York City. He has also spent time teaching at the University of Paris.
The bulk of West's work focuses on the role of race, gender, and class in American society and the means by which people act and react to their "radical conditionedness." West draws intellectual contributions from multiple traditions, including Christianity, the black church, Marxism, neopragmatism, and transcendentalism. Among his most influential books are Race Matters (1994) and Democracy Matters (2004).

Cornel West: ‘Netanyahu and the IDF should be brought before the International Criminal Court’
“We need to live in a world in which we fundamentally believe that Palestinian suffering has the same value as Jewish suffering.”
American philosopher and activist Dr Cornel West, who has started his campaign for the 2024 US presidential elections, said that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli army should be brought before the International Criminal Court (ICC) on charges of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.
West made the comments during a debate hosted by Piers Morgan on his show Uncensored on Wednesday, where he also added that he believes many key figures in the Biden administration are complicit in war crimes against Palestinians.

Cornel West calls for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza
“We loathe and hate the vicious siege against Gaza. The least we can do in this moment of overwhelming vulgarity is to have a ceasefire. Yet, there are those in Washington, DC talking about a ’humanitarian pause.’”

“Don’t let anybody tell you that loving Palestinians and Palestinian babies means you hate someone else,” he said.
Emphasising his commitment to human rights, West declared solidarity with all who are occupied, subjugated or exploited, focusing specifically on Gaza due to what h...
