I could write a disquisition just on the Rev. Wright's discussion of personality formation between Europe and Africa. I think the notion of "I" became more prominent in Europe after the Romantics, not with Descartes, but that's a minor matter. He makes powerful points here; not least in the anecdote that produces the title Thought Criminal gave when he posted this, and which I'm confiscating here along with the video he originally posted.
Happy Birthday, Rene.
