All of 51 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 3: the lower courts that have weighed in so far have 52 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 3: ruled that the order is unconstitutional, but the Trump administration 53 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 3: contends that those rulings, as well as the long standing 54 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 3: view and that virtually everyone born in the United States 55 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 3: is entitled to US citizenship, are based on a fundamental 56 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 3: misunderstanding of the Constitution. The challenges counter that the Trump 57 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 3: administration is asking for nothing less than a remaking of 58 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 3: our nation's constitutional foundations, one that would cast a shadow 59 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 3: over the citizenship of millions upon millions of Americans going 60 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 3: back generations. 61 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: So who's the. 62 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 3: Better constitutional lawyer, the Supreme Court or the President? 63 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: What do you think? 64 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 2: Of course, because they're lawyers, all of them. Donald Trump 65 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 2: did can go to law school. But he's But the 66 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 2: thing is, though Kevin his presence, He's going to stare 67 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 2: at them while the hearings are going on. But more importantly, 68 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 2: William Barber I didn't know it was Barbara versus Trump. 69 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: He's going to be here this morning. He just told 70 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 2: me he's going to speak before the Supreme Court and 71 00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 2: tell me it was that far up the food chain 72 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 2: with this legal issue. So he'll be hearing and he'll 73 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 2: preview what he's going to say to the justices. So 74 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 2: that's going to be interesting this morning. 75 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, that'll be a nice way to get a deeper understanding. 76 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 3: We'll take a deeper dive into all of this, because 77 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 3: according to Skoti's blog website, it says that by a 78 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 3: vote of sixty three, the Supreme Court rejected the concept 79 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 3: of universal or nationwide injunctions, and Trump's order has never 80 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 3: gone into effect. Its challenges to it were filed almost immediately, 81 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 3: and several federal judges around the country temporarily barred the 82 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 3: government from implementing the order throughout the country while litigation 83 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 3: over the order's constitutionality continued. So is it a distraction 84 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 3: for the White House to do these kinds of things. 85 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 2: At least looking for a win though, Kevin, you know, 86 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 2: he's been losing quite a bit, you know, because he's 87 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 2: lost on the conversion theory for LBGT rules. The Supreme 88 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 2: surf ruled against the ban on that he's he's lost 89 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 2: on quite a few things, and of course the extension 90 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 2: of the White House. He lost on that and they 91 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,359 Speaker 2: told me that's not his house. He's only the steward, 92 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 2: so he can't, you know, make changes like they so 93 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 2: they struck him down. So he's looking for a win 94 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 2: right now. And of course what's going on in Iran, 95 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 2: So that's all that is. So that's Oh, by the way, 96 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 2: he's going to address the nation tonight at nine, so 97 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 2: we'll hear what he has to say at nine. If 98 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 2: he talks about the birthright issue, he's probably going to say, 99 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 2: we got two more weeks in Iran and then the 100 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 2: world be over. 101 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, he seems to be must see TV half the time. 102 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 3: I know, you know, at least he wants you to think. 103 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 3: So anyway, yeah, he's doing it. Let's schedule at nine 104 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 3: because they want to catch eleven o'clock news. They figure 105 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 3: most people watch the back in the day, was you know, 106 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 3: watch eleven o'clock the news before going to bed at 107 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 3: night at eleven o'clocks. But some people like me and 108 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 3: you have to check in earlier because we got to 109 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 3: wake up early. It's great for on the West coast. 110 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 3: If you're up at eleven pm. Man, you're gonna hate 111 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 3: yourself in the morning in this industry. Uh oh yeah, 112 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 3: just my humble opinion, mind you. And in other news 113 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 3: of federal judges issued a decisive ruling in a lawsuit 114 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 3: challenging President Donald Trump's executive order which seized all federal 115 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 3: funding to NPR and PBS. And this is a clear 116 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 3: victory for NPR, the First Amendment, and the American people. 117 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 3: The court unequivocally, unequivocally anyway, affirmed that the government cannot 118 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 3: leverage funding to control a punish the press. While the 119 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 3: news marks a tremendous victory, it doesn't restore federal funding 120 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 3: to public media. So our congratulations in order to MPR, 121 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 3: how do you see that? 122 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: I think that's a little. 123 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 2: Bit, I see, because it just restore the funding. So 124 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 2: those folks who got laid off, that doesn't mean they're 125 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 2: going to be rehired. So it may have to wait 126 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 2: until the next the next round of Congress and see 127 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 2: if they'll allocate the funds for them MPR and PBS, 128 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 2: and then maybe they can hire these folks back. But again, 129 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 2: another al for your president. 130 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: Another l right exactly. Here's an interesting story. 131 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 3: News One reports that TSA agents were told to return 132 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 3: the gift cards donated by Tyler Perry. So while the 133 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 3: employees at the Atlanta International Airport had to return their 134 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 3: gift cards, they are set to receive the back pay 135 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 3: this week. 136 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: But it's back pay so over the weekend. 137 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 3: Billionaire filmmaker Tyler Perry tried twice to provide financial assistance 138 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 3: to TSA agents and they were affected, of course by 139 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 3: the shutdown. But after being told he couldn't give cash tips, 140 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 3: he came up with a clever little idea. He gave 141 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 3: the TSA agents one thousand dollars gift cards. Now the 142 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 3: TSA agents who received the gift cards are being asked 143 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 3: to return them by the airport's federal security director. And 144 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 3: let me just ask you personally, if I don't want 145 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 3: to hands you a thousand dollars gift card and you're 146 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 3: still waiting on a check, are you looking at giving 147 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 3: it back? Do you spend it right away or do 148 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 3: you hold on going? What kind of trick is this? 149 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 2: What do you think it depends? 150 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 4: Man? 151 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 2: If you got to eat or you got to keep 152 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 2: the lights on in your house. You know you're gonna 153 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 2: spend it and take the hit if it comes afterwards, 154 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 2: because you know, probably thinking how am I gonna trace 155 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 2: whether I got one or not? But they probably will, 156 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 2: you know, the government knows everything. But yeah, yeah, and 157 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 2: say hey, I had to And then and then you 158 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 2: get into the legal process. What I do starve? You 159 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 2: guys are on paying me and somebody gives me some money. 160 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 2: I'm not supposed to eat or feed my family or 161 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 2: keep the lights on in my house. You know, so well, 162 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 2: it's an individual decision to be made, but it all 163 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 2: depends on that, you know, well personal for everyone. 164 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, and the whole thing about the gift cards is done. 165 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 3: They were concerned that the gift cards, how they were distributed. 166 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 1: The request to. 167 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,079 Speaker 3: Return the cards was both a blow to morale, of course, 168 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 3: and a source of additional stream for TSA agents who 169 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 3: may have already spent at least part of the funds. So, 170 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 3: you know, the Senate ultimately passed the bill last week 171 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 3: that didn't include any of the reforms requested by the Democrats, 172 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 3: and it didn't provide funding for ICE and CBP, and 173 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 3: so it's a real lose lose situation for both sides, 174 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 3: and unfortunately, families are being played like ponds on the 175 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 3: chessboard in this thing. 176 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they went home for Congress, I mean for Easter. Sorry, 177 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 2: Congress went for the Easter break without resolving the situation. 178 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 3: Well, it's the longest shut down in US history, according 179 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 3: to BBC website.

I'm hoping I'm pronounce your 193 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 2: name correctly. 194 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 5: That's correct. I don't know if I need to wake 195 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 5: him up before. 196 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 4: I called in. 197 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 5: I might get him on my other phone while we're. 198 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 2: Okay, well, let's let's move on there until he joins 199 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 2: us because you're having an evan, you're looking out that. 200 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 2: And Frank works tirelessly for our for our people, family, 201 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 2: especially our young people, our children. He's been an advocate 202 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 2: for family, supporter, raising Warnston resources, but now he's taken 203 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,199 Speaker 2: on autism. Wife, Frank, why did you decide to wait 204 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 2: into the autism field? 205 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:55,559 Speaker 5: Well Commissioner Anthony Tillman, who's been a fighter for fatherhood rights. 206 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 5: We hooked up at in the event for fathers that 207 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 5: Joshua de Bois put together that used to work for 208 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 5: Barack Obama, and he admitted at this event that we 209 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 5: did that his child had autism and as a black father, 210 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 5: he had a myriad of problems trying to get services, 211 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 5: supports and opportunities as a black dad. And we figured 212 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 5: there are other fathers out there who probably have the 213 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 5: same problems but need the encouragement during autism months to 214 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 5: fight for their children. Children with autism think a different way, 215 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 5: but they can learn, and our father's love is essential 216 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 5: to helping them to survive in a world that doesn't 217 00:11:54,760 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 5: understand the things that they go through. You know, Autism 218 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 5: is a genetic disorder that affects many of our kids 219 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 5: and what we wanted to do was to highlight didn't 220 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 5: need for especially black fathers that have services, supports, and opportunities, 221 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:22,839 Speaker 5: and to continue to fight for the services that our 222 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 5: children need. So that's what this is all about. This 223 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 5: Thursday is a tens Am month. 224 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 6: Did you know that? 225 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 2: No, I did not know that. Think of sharing that 226 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 2: with us, Frank, Yes, sir. 227 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 5: So all over the world people have children who are 228 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 5: suffering from the inability to learn the same way as 229 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 5: other people. Just to break it down in the into 230 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 5: a lane experience, this genetic disorder affects how children learn personally. 231 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 5: I had a son and still have a son who 232 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 5: my wife and I noticed that when he was in school, 233 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 5: he wasn't learning. He was a problem in school. The 234 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 5: teachers didn't understand him. We said, hey, he needs special 235 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 5: education in a way that somebody can help him to learn, 236 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 5: and we sued the DC school system and one and 237 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 5: got my son into a private school and he graduated 238 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 5: from high school. But it takes that fight of the 239 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 5: parents being aware of the opportunities that the school system 240 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 5: has to provide services for these kids. So we wanted 241 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:56,439 Speaker 5: to encourage fathers and mothers to fight together, but especially 242 00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 5: your black father, because you know, father is one of 243 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 5: the main ingredients in a child's educational excellence. And you 244 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 5: know the one hundred Fathers is about fighting for the 245 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 5: rights of fathers, men and boys. There's a recent report 246 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 5: that just came out.

When did you find out find out 269 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 2: that your son had autism? At what point? You know? 270 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 2: Because it seems like growing up, we never heard that 271 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 2: term autism. Now we're hearing about autism and we hear 272 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 2: about the spectrum back then, when when when you know 273 00:15:58,280 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 2: a child was sort of off, for your friends show, 274 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 2: oh he's special, we choose that term, or your parents, 275 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 2: oh he's special. You know, they wouldn't want to say 276 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 2: the person that the child or the person talking about 277 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 2: is retarded, which you know they'd be a kind and 278 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 2: saying they're special. So when we come back from the break, 279 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 2: tell us when did you find out that your son 280 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 2: had autism?

I guess is Frank Malone. 287 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 2: Frank is with one hundred fathers. He's a father himself. 288 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 2: He's got three daughters and he's got one son, and 289 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 2: he's doing a program for autism. Found out that his 290 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 2: son was artistic, was on the spectrum, as they say. 291 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 2: And my question to you, Frank, before we left for 292 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 2: the break. Oh, by the way, somebody was listening to 293 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 2: us earlier. They sent me a note of Stephanie Mills. 294 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 2: As we all know the singer Stephanie Mills. She has 295 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 2: a son who's also on the spectrum, and she she 296 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 2: brought him on stage a couple of times when she 297 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 2: was there performing, just to fit him in. But my 298 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,880 Speaker 2: question to you was, Frank, when did you know that 299 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,640 Speaker 2: your son was autistic? What are the signs? 300 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 5: Well, the signs are your child doesn't socialize properly in 301 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:22,439 Speaker 5: school when the other children are under the leadership of 302 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 5: a teacher, they don't pick up right away. Children with 303 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 5: autism learned a different way and it requires more for 304 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 5: them to do the same things as a normal child. 305 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:43,120 Speaker 5: And so my son was getting into trouble doing other things, 306 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 5: not listening as he was supposed to. 307 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 6: And so the. 308 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 5: School kept calling us. So my wife and I teamed 309 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 5: up and that first of all, I want the fathers 310 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 5: to listen to know it's important if you can team 311 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 5: with the mother about to a child, do it. We 312 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,719 Speaker 5: got involved with the school, We got on the PTA, 313 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 5: we got thoroughly involved. But these teachers for this young 314 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 5: black boy, just did it get it. He wasn't able 315 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 5: to pick up and so we called them out on 316 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 5: it and asked for special ed We asked for somebody 317 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 5: to be in the classroom with him to work with him. Finally, 318 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 5: when that didn't happen properly, we sued the school system 319 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 5: based on their own wounds, because they're supposed to provide 320 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:48,679 Speaker 5: educational services for all children. And we worked the court 321 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 5: and we won, and we ended up taking our child 322 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 5: out of public school and we're able to put him 323 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 5: in a private school and he graduated with a high 324 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 5: school diploma. But it was a fight. Now, nobody gave 325 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 5: us anything. We had to come in ready to fight. 326 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,959 Speaker 5: And I want to say, took fathers, get involved with 327 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 5: your child's education. Let them see that you love them. 328 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 5: It shows that school is important to you and it's 329 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:29,199 Speaker 5: important to your child. Give the child's mother opportunity to 330 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 5: work with you if it's at all possible. But your 331 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 5: child will see you as a part of their teaching 332 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 5: and learning and it will help them. But the most 333 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 5: important thing is love. 334 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 2: Frank twenty four after the time of our family, just 335 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 2: waking up, Frank maloneys, I guess Frank is with the 336 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 2: one hundred Fathers and they have a program now that 337 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 2: they're going to start off this month about autism. I 338 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 2: gotta ask this question, though, Frank, did they try to 339 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 2: give your child draw because a lot of times they 340 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 2: say that, especially black boy is a disruptive in the classroom. 341 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 2: And you said, and you said, this was going on 342 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 2: with your child, but they didn't know that he was autistic. 343 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 2: Do they try to you know, they have the school 344 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,439 Speaker 2: nurse Okay, tell us about that. 345 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 5: Yes, they did to try to slow him down. That's 346 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 5: the first thing they tried to do. And they try 347 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 5: to prescribe drugs and the whole nine yards. And my 348 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 5: son really didn't want it, but he had to go 349 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 5: along with it. We didn't like it, but we had 350 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 5: to do something to keep him in school. And so yes, Uh, 351 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:47,239 Speaker 5: it depends on the individual and your doctor as to 352 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 5: whether or not you want to go along with that. 353 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 5: Some kids needed some. 354 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 6: Have a different reaction. 355 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 5: All I know is I finally got my son through school, 356 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 5: and hallelujah, he graduated. But it wasn't through the regular 357 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 5: school system. He required people in the classroom that knew 358 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 5: his infirmity and what he needed. And somebody has got 359 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 5: the fight for these children. Somebody's gotta look up the 360 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 5: services that the school system has to provide. That's why 361 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 5: the one hundred Fathers is involved with this. We're at 362 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 5: www dot one hundred Fathers dot org.

Because you allow them to give 370 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,199 Speaker 2: him the drugs and you know, I don't know what 371 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 2: happened after that, but at what point did they say, 372 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 2: really the drugs, they shouldn't be medicated. He has an issue. 373 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 2: Well what point did you come to that realization or 374 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:19,719 Speaker 2: was it that you got professional advice on that. How 375 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 2: did that come out? 376 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, we called in. 377 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 6: I got called to the school so much. 378 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 5: He's doing this, he's doing that, he's we got called 379 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,439 Speaker 5: to the school to the point where we called the 380 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 5: school said listen, how can we help our son to learn? 381 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 5: And these are some of the things they're going to 382 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:47,160 Speaker 5: ask you to do. So we saw a professional, We 383 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 5: saw a psychologist, took time for him to see a child. 384 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 5: Psychologists to try to understand what's going on with them, 385 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 5: to help them to navigate what's going on. And that 386 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 5: did come about, but it was with professional help, not 387 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 5: something we just did Willie Nelly, And it was a fight. 388 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,400 Speaker 5: You've got to get in there and fight for your children. 389 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:23,160 Speaker 5: Just because they might have something that makes them learn 390 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 5: differently doesn't mean they cannot learn. Some of these kids 391 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 5: end up doing great things, but they gotta have somebody 392 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 5: to advocate and fight for them. That's why I'm on 393 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 5: to encourage fathers to stand up, take a look at 394 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:47,360 Speaker 5: your child and get involved with education, reach out, get 395 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 5: the services. 396 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 2: All right family twenty eight At the top the out 397 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 2: that if you just jo of Frank Malone or Frank 398 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 2: has belong here before he's executive director of one hundred 399 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 2: Fathers Incorporated.

It's 405 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 5: a genetic disorder. These children just don't learn the same 406 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 5: weight and we got to understand that, reach out and 407 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 5: get the services that they need. 408 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 2: But you know what, let me tell me here for 409 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,919 Speaker 2: a second, Frank, because you know, and I mentioned this 410 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 2: before with the break, because this has been around for 411 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 2: as you says, it's genetic, so it's been around for 412 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 2: a while, but it wasn't label or tagged artism. Just 413 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 2: recently we've heard it designated that this is autism. They're 414 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 2: on the spectrum. That means that it shows up in 415 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 2: different ways of the difficulty shows up. What do you 416 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 2: think causes this and how did we deal with it 417 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 2: back before they discovered that it was autism, Because you know, 418 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 2: as I said, we've had this issue before. They and 419 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:05,880 Speaker 2: we would just say, well, he's special. Our parents would 420 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 2: say he's special. They're trying to be Also, people say 421 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 2: they retarded, even used they are word and describing children 422 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 2: who have this issue. So I'm just trying to figure 423 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 2: out at what point did this come about? And do 424 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,399 Speaker 2: they know You say it's genetic, but do they know 425 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 2: the starting point? 426 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 5: Parents began to take a look at what they need 427 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 5: to do to advocate for their children, and they understood 428 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 5: they got to educate the public. We got to educate 429 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 5: people that hey, there's some kids out here that need more. 430 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 5: You know, they call. 431 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 6: Them retarded or whatever else. 432 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,160 Speaker 5: That's not the case cases and they need to learn 433 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 5: a different way. In the nine to five school day. 434 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 5: It's not going to do it for them. They need 435 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 5: somebody to redirect them, to work with them, to teach 436 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 5: them to repeat so that they can get they don't 437 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 5: get it the same way. Now, we got to advocate 438 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 5: and make sure we get the services. We gotta legislate. 439 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 5: We got to make sure that the policies allow fathers 440 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 5: and mothers to get these services for these kids. 441 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I got to ask you this thirty minutes 442 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 2: out of the top of our family. Thanks for waking 443 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 2: up with Frank Malan from one hundred men with us today. 444 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 2: Frank the question I got to ask you the teachers. 445 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 2: Could you sue the DC school district? Right sore teachers 446 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 2: now able to determine that child's autistic? Who are sending 447 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,120 Speaker 2: him off to get a shot? Or do they call 448 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 2: it the parents and say, listen, I think young Johnny 449 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 2: has an issue here. You might want to get him 450 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 2: checked out and see a psychologist child psychologist because he's 451 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 2: acting out in class, and you know, and it could 452 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 2: be you know, and they tell it possibly it could 453 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 2: be it called the autistic, and I want to know, 454 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 2: you know, the background of the family. Did you also 455 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 2: go into that required teachers in the do that or 456 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,400 Speaker 2: do they just, you know, samarily just send them over 457 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 2: to the medical errors so they can get a shot 458 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 2: or some pills. 459 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 6: It's a requirement that if a child has. 460 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 5: What we call it needs for special education within the law, 461 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 5: they have to evaluate this child and come up with 462 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 5: the plan. But it starts with the parent. The parent 463 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 5: has to advocate for their child. The parent has to 464 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 5: educate themselves about what laws protect that child and what 465 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 5: the school system has to do to accommodate a child 466 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 5: that just doesn't learn the same way as other children. 467 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 5: You know, they will quick to label our young black 468 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 5: boys a special edge. But it's a different story. I 469 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 5: got a program and one of the school's operating right 470 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 5: now with young black boys, but seem like they listen 471 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 5: to black men. We don't have that problem. We can 472 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 5: communicate with them through love but in a different way, 473 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 5: and they learn. And so we have to be really, 474 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 5: really cautious about how we allow our children to be liable, 475 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 5: to be educated, and to be treated, especially young black boys. 476 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 5: Many of them are brilliant, but they just don't have 477 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 5: the tools to let that brilliance come out. 478 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 4: You know. 479 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 2: Let me ask you this though, Frank twenty six away 480 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 2: from the top of the I would come from a breakthrough. 481 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 2: So I got to ask you this question because she 482 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 2: said it was genetic. Did you feel when it's genetic 483 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 2: that means it runs in the family. Did you feel 484 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 2: any way that I may have get passed on this 485 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 2: issue to my child? Did you feel anyway guilty? 486 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 5: Well, in my particular case, I adopted. I adopted my children, 487 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 5: so I'm not to cast any dispersions at anything, but 488 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 5: some of my children were adopted.

I ended up getting a job at Altan, Virginia, 788 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 5: right in the ghetto. While I was there, I opened 789 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:59,560 Speaker 5: the program and the kids didn't have fathers, and so 790 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:03,360 Speaker 5: I brought the fathers in and these kids scored the 791 00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:08,840 Speaker 5: highest on their standard of learning exams of anybody in 792 00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 5: the region. And we started getting money and they said, 793 00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 5: how did you do it?

Thank you for 857 00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:26,400 Speaker 10: taking my call. Oh, I'm not gonna be long. I 858 00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 10: enjoyed with the brother information that he shared with the audience. 859 00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 10: I wanted to state that I've done quite much work 860 00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:38,080 Speaker 10: in that area of autists. And then how it has 861 00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 10: affected our children, especially a black boys. If we say 862 00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:46,040 Speaker 10: and really analyze this, let's look at the seventies and 863 00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 10: eighties and the nineties, we never saw this in our children. 864 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:54,040 Speaker 10: We might have had a very low number of children 865 00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:59,600 Speaker 10: that was affected with this soft situation. But oh, I 866 00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:03,120 Speaker 10: truly believe from what I have researched, is that MMR 867 00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:08,719 Speaker 10: vaccine has contributed to our children are coming down with this. 868 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:15,960 Speaker 10: And the reason why I'm saying this is because there 869 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:22,520 Speaker 10: was a CDC professor, CDC doctor. His name is Timothy 870 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:30,680 Speaker 10: Timothy Cuttingham. He was found murdered in one of the 871 00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:36,040 Speaker 10: lakes rivers in George and Atlanta. He went around, Okay, 872 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 10: he he was there when it was being developed this 873 00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:43,680 Speaker 10: vaccine that would affect black boys. He went around and 874 00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:47,640 Speaker 10: start telling his neighbors stop giving the children your children 875 00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:49,840 Speaker 10: in the vaccine. He went around and he just was 876 00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:52,279 Speaker 10: trying to tell the spread the word to everyone. Next 877 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,399 Speaker 10: thing not this brother comes from dead. You can look 878 00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:58,399 Speaker 10: it up Timything Cunningham. They try to say he committed suicide. Well, 879 00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:01,480 Speaker 10: you know we always hearing that because he was going 880 00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:03,920 Speaker 10: up for promotion and he was denied to promotion. No, 881 00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:07,200 Speaker 10: that's not true. They said that brother was the best 882 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 10: scientist that CDC had ever had. Then we had this doctor, 883 00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:15,080 Speaker 10: doctor Thompson. We've been trying to get him to come 884 00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:18,719 Speaker 10: into Congress to what you called he was. He put 885 00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:20,840 Speaker 10: it out there, he said, yes, it is. The vaccines 886 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:24,000 Speaker 10: is doing it. Now. My grandsons, when they were little, 887 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:28,319 Speaker 10: I had them going to this black pediatrician. 888 00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:29,640 Speaker 5: I took them. 889 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,719 Speaker 10: I got my daughter to remove them from her and 890 00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:37,480 Speaker 10: this other black pediatrician, because I believe that they and 891 00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:40,080 Speaker 10: some of our studies have shown that they have made 892 00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:44,480 Speaker 10: sure they put those vaccines in the hands of black 893 00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:47,960 Speaker 10: doctors because they knew who most black doctors, most black 894 00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:51,920 Speaker 10: pediatricians are going to be serving who black children. And 895 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:54,600 Speaker 10: so I had them removed from those doctors, and I 896 00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:58,360 Speaker 10: had my grandchildren sent to this Jewish, so called Jewish doctor. 897 00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:00,920 Speaker 10: I said, well, they're gonna it's the same that they're 898 00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:03,480 Speaker 10: gonna get vaccines. Because I'm not against vaccines. I just 899 00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:07,200 Speaker 10: want to make sure they are the right ones. So 900 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:10,640 Speaker 10: I sent my cheerit up there to this Jewish doctor 901 00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:12,759 Speaker 10: and got their vaccines from there, and of course they 902 00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:16,360 Speaker 10: churned out fine. But I truly believe for my research. 903 00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:18,520 Speaker 10: Now what I used to do is I used. 904 00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:22,120 Speaker 2: To and a disease. Denise, Can you cut it right 905 00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:26,000 Speaker 2: real quick because we got another guest on deck time. 906 00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:28,520 Speaker 10: You respect that.

Family, it's ten after the top of the 919 00:54:57,360 --> 00:54:59,600 Speaker 2: Alice turn over to doctor and Nole Dove now out 920 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,680 Speaker 2: of Template University, Grand Rising, Doctor Dove, welcome back to 921 00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:03,400 Speaker 2: the program. 922 00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:07,719 Speaker 11: Thank you, Grand Rising, and thank you so much for 923 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:08,560 Speaker 11: inviting me. 924 00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:09,640 Speaker 4: It's my honors. 925 00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:12,759 Speaker 2: Well it's our honor to have you and thank you 926 00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:15,680 Speaker 2: for being so patient with us, doctor Douve, Doctor Dove. 927 00:55:16,239 --> 00:55:19,640 Speaker 2: We want to discuss the effects of cultural domination. You know, 928 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:22,399 Speaker 2: when you talk about cultural domination, self of us don't 929 00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 2: understand what that means. Can you explain how you interpret 930 00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:26,839 Speaker 2: cultural domination to. 931 00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:38,520 Speaker 11: Be Yes, culture as a discipline is not really shown 932 00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:43,560 Speaker 11: to be very important, but it is important because it 933 00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:49,240 Speaker 11: affects the whole of humanity. We are cultural beings, which 934 00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:54,600 Speaker 11: means that our minds are attached to the way of 935 00:55:54,760 --> 00:56:05,200 Speaker 11: thinking and behaving and performing, living and creating and developing. 936 00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:11,879 Speaker 11: And culture is the kind of umbrella that we use 937 00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:18,040 Speaker 11: to bring ourselves together to understand the world. So if 938 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:22,640 Speaker 11: you don't have culture in your analysis, it's very hard 939 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:29,920 Speaker 11: to understand our power powers as human beings. Now, culture, 940 00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:37,839 Speaker 11: cultural domination is very important. We normally say a colonial domination, 941 00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:42,239 Speaker 11: you know, as a way of expressing what happens to 942 00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 11: people who are conquered and then have to practice and 943 00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:53,839 Speaker 11: think the ways that the conquerors deem. It's a whole process. 944 00:56:54,040 --> 00:57:02,520 Speaker 11: But inside this domination, inside the coldization of people of 945 00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:09,239 Speaker 11: people's minds, is culture. So the people who are conquering, 946 00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:13,600 Speaker 11: the people bring with them their cultural beliefs and values, 947 00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:19,400 Speaker 11: and the people that they're conquering, they do everything to 948 00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:25,080 Speaker 11: prevent those people from carrying out their cultural values and beliefs. 949 00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:31,040 Speaker 11: And so culture is so significant that it informs all 950 00:57:31,680 --> 00:57:49,440 Speaker 11: institutions that are built by people. All institutions like family, law, education, healthcare, religion, politics, 951 00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:57,080 Speaker 11: governing structures. These are all culturally oriented, and every cultural 952 00:57:57,320 --> 00:58:03,520 Speaker 11: group will develop it institutions, ways of living, ways of thinking, 953 00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:09,680 Speaker 11: ways of building, ways of understanding within that cultural orientation. 954 00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 11: So an example is here where the original people were killed, 955 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:25,160 Speaker 11: not all, but it was the process of genocide, and 956 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:32,480 Speaker 11: then African people were enslaved from the continent and brought here. Now, 957 00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:37,760 Speaker 11: the culture that did that, the cultural group that did 958 00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:45,320 Speaker 11: that believed in murder and domination as a way of 959 00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:52,240 Speaker 11: claiming the resources of the people and using Africans straight 960 00:58:52,280 --> 00:58:59,600 Speaker 11: from the continent, enslaving African people here to use them 961 00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:04,480 Speaker 11: as the resource to build this land in the shape 962 00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:10,520 Speaker 11: and forms that they wished for both sets of groups. 963 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:15,320 Speaker 11: The first nations people historically are the first Africans that 964 00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:21,520 Speaker 11: came to this continent because everyone, all our ancestors are 965 00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:25,720 Speaker 11: born in Africa. So the first migrations out of Africa 966 00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:32,200 Speaker 11: of African people became across the world that they populated 967 00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:35,320 Speaker 11: the world. They were the first nations people of the world. 968 00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:44,480 Speaker 11: So much later a cultural orientation that arose out of 969 00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:50,760 Speaker 11: scarcity and their way of existing was to conquer places 970 00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:55,040 Speaker 11: where people had everything that they need. In reality, the 971 00:59:55,160 --> 00:59:59,040 Speaker 11: values and beliefs that those people conquered was that you 972 00:59:59,120 --> 01:00:04,360 Speaker 11: can share our resources. That the African cultural orientation from 973 01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:08,160 Speaker 11: the ancient and the original one. But this lay to 974 01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:13,600 Speaker 11: cultural orientation when it saw it took what it wanted 975 01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:18,240 Speaker 11: when it wanted, in the way it wanted and that and. 976 01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:20,240 Speaker 2: Hold, I thought right there, doctor Doff, because I'm following 977 01:00:20,280 --> 01:00:22,400 Speaker 2: you closely, and we got to take a quick break 978 01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:24,680 Speaker 2: there at seventeen after the top. That when we come 979 01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:27,920 Speaker 2: back though, this cultural domination was it our fault? Was 980 01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:31,680 Speaker 2: our ancestors fault for not maintaining their culture even though 981 01:00:32,040 --> 01:00:35,160 Speaker 2: they were enslaved. We saw many of us can recall 982 01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:37,280 Speaker 2: the movie Roots when they beat him and said his 983 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:41,440 Speaker 2: name wasn't was Toby given him an European name? And 984 01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:45,160 Speaker 2: then it seems like that group of those who had 985 01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:49,280 Speaker 2: slaved Africans, who came from the count and gave up 986 01:00:49,400 --> 01:00:52,920 Speaker 2: or relinquished or did not continue their culture, and now 987 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:56,320 Speaker 2: they have European culture. Explain that if that's the issue 988 01:00:56,320 --> 01:00:58,920 Speaker 2: we're discussing this morning, family, you two can get this 989 01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:02,400 Speaker 2: fascinating discussion with our guests.

It's April first, where they're already, and 996 01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:20,520 Speaker 2: it's also a Wednesday, as I mentioned, that's hun day. 997 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:22,600 Speaker 2: We're halfway through the work week. Our guest is doctor 998 01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:25,000 Speaker 2: Nod Dove. Doctor Dove works along with one of our 999 01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:28,280 Speaker 2: power talkers, dodtr Malefia Sante at Temple University. It teaches 1000 01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:33,240 Speaker 2: a class called Africology, a series called Africology. This morning, 1001 01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:37,440 Speaker 2: she's explaining to us the effects of cultural domination and basically, 1002 01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:40,240 Speaker 2: doctor dev what I said before the break, is that correct? 1003 01:01:40,280 --> 01:01:42,040 Speaker 2: Is that why we don't know who we are? 1004 01:01:43,000 --> 01:01:49,640 Speaker 11: Yes? First, of all culture what it is. It's transmitted 1005 01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:55,680 Speaker 11: through behaviors, beliefs, and values from our ancestors to our descendants. 1006 01:01:56,080 --> 01:02:00,520 Speaker 11: It carries the memory of our existence and experience seriences. 1007 01:02:01,600 --> 01:02:07,080 Speaker 11: With knowledge, we can remember who we are. Its historical, 1008 01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:14,080 Speaker 11: psycho spiritual, linguistic, and evidence of culture's existence is in 1009 01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:18,800 Speaker 11: the way we think, behave, and produce material things from 1010 01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:23,080 Speaker 11: architecture to art. So that's how you see the culture. 1011 01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:27,960 Speaker 11: It's an aspect of feature of our thoughts and creativity. 1012 01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:35,640 Speaker 11: When you dominate a people, you know, culture is a 1013 01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:44,040 Speaker 11: very important feature of colonization. So those who have colonized 1014 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:50,720 Speaker 11: us all across Africa and the world have essentially colonized 1015 01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:55,840 Speaker 11: people who did not see their lands as privates, but 1016 01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:59,920 Speaker 11: rather shared their lands amongst themselves and even the conqueror 1017 01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:07,800 Speaker 11: in the first place. But the cultural differences are very 1018 01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:11,960 Speaker 11: relevant to our situation today. So if we look at 1019 01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:17,720 Speaker 11: what happens here in the US and in Africa, the 1020 01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:24,880 Speaker 11: colonizers those with are dominating through their values and beliefs, 1021 01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:32,400 Speaker 11: and they are preventing the people they have conquered from 1022 01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:37,880 Speaker 11: practicing bears. They stop that through murder. They take over 1023 01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:43,360 Speaker 11: the institutions that the original people had that they've conquered, 1024 01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:49,000 Speaker 11: they eradicate them, erase them, and then put in their 1025 01:03:49,040 --> 01:03:53,320 Speaker 11: own cultural beliefs and values. And people who step out 1026 01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:57,320 Speaker 11: of line and want to remember who they are and 1027 01:03:57,520 --> 01:04:02,640 Speaker 11: have ways of memory writing that if they discover that, 1028 01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:08,160 Speaker 11: they will kill them, you know. So it's over thousands 1029 01:04:08,200 --> 01:04:13,360 Speaker 11: of years, so it's not remembered. People don't remember. They've 1030 01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:18,560 Speaker 11: borne into something that has been planned by the conquerors, 1031 01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:24,520 Speaker 11: and they become it's familiar with this way they're born 1032 01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:28,960 Speaker 11: into it. I mean, some of the parents' grandparents and 1033 01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:34,680 Speaker 11: so on will remember their past and they will hand 1034 01:04:34,720 --> 01:04:37,680 Speaker 11: that down and it will almost be like a secret. 1035 01:04:37,880 --> 01:04:41,439 Speaker 11: This is what we used to do. But one day 1036 01:04:41,480 --> 01:04:46,440 Speaker 11: it will rise again because through education, through knowledge, we 1037 01:04:46,600 --> 01:04:50,600 Speaker 11: can re remember. We can remember who we were and 1038 01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:53,680 Speaker 11: what we did and so on. That's why aphacology is 1039 01:04:53,720 --> 01:04:58,880 Speaker 11: so important because it is not a racist a discipline. 1040 01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:02,280 Speaker 11: There are people from all over the world who study 1041 01:05:02,560 --> 01:05:06,760 Speaker 11: and who are Africologists, because what we're trying to do 1042 01:05:06,880 --> 01:05:11,200 Speaker 11: is look at the truth of human movement, and we 1043 01:05:11,640 --> 01:05:17,560 Speaker 11: know that scientifically, all humans came out of Africa. So 1044 01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:22,680 Speaker 11: the ancestors of everybody on this planet are African and black. 1045 01:05:23,520 --> 01:05:24,480 Speaker 9: But these. 1046 01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:31,720 Speaker 11: False ideas of race and gender, and all these constructs 1047 01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:38,880 Speaker 11: of hierarchy, of notions of superiority and inferiority, and creating 1048 01:05:39,040 --> 01:05:44,560 Speaker 11: systems that uphold these false beliefs make us believe that 1049 01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:49,280 Speaker 11: these are justified and they're true. So, you know, black 1050 01:05:49,360 --> 01:05:54,880 Speaker 11: people can are raised to think that Africa is where 1051 01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:58,880 Speaker 11: you come from and it's inferior. There was no history 1052 01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:07,000 Speaker 11: there and it was barbarous. The great European philosophers teach 1053 01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:11,480 Speaker 11: that in their philosophies, and that is throughout the whole 1054 01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:17,320 Speaker 11: of the academic world to believe in the inferiority of Africa. 1055 01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:20,800 Speaker 11: So because we're all trained to do that, we're all 1056 01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:26,120 Speaker 11: going to school and learning all this papers telling. 1057 01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:26,480 Speaker 7: Us all this. 1058 01:06:26,680 --> 01:06:30,960 Speaker 11: It's a subconscious thing. And so we can be black, 1059 01:06:31,080 --> 01:06:36,280 Speaker 11: dark skinned, light skinned and really despise Africa and now 1060 01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:41,280 Speaker 11: fearful being connected to it, even though the truth is 1061 01:06:41,320 --> 01:06:45,280 Speaker 11: that Africa is the place of civilization. The stories that 1062 01:06:45,440 --> 01:06:52,080 Speaker 11: have come out of are constructed for us to lose 1063 01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:57,919 Speaker 11: our capacity to understand our true selves. So we're being 1064 01:06:58,080 --> 01:07:03,200 Speaker 11: constructed in the like, shall I say, of the conquerors 1065 01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:08,680 Speaker 11: of the culturally dominant group is training us to see 1066 01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:13,440 Speaker 11: their viewpoint. So because of the race structure in place, 1067 01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:19,120 Speaker 11: we can actually be black and hate blackness, hate other 1068 01:07:19,200 --> 01:07:21,480 Speaker 11: black people. We can be like that. 1069 01:07:22,880 --> 01:07:25,080 Speaker 2: And hold that thought right there, because that's where I 1070 01:07:25,160 --> 01:07:26,960 Speaker 2: was going, and I'm glad you went there. Must have 1071 01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:29,920 Speaker 2: been reading my mind, doctor Dove, because we do have 1072 01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:32,720 Speaker 2: some people who are black who hate on other black people. 1073 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:36,640 Speaker 2: How do they how do they get there? Where they 1074 01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:41,360 Speaker 2: where they adopting the cultural aspects of the the of 1075 01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:45,640 Speaker 2: their their oppressor, and and where they're subjugated? Was it? 1076 01:07:45,720 --> 01:07:48,640 Speaker 2: Was it done deliberately? And because these folks, even though 1077 01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:51,479 Speaker 2: they hate other black people, they're black themselves. They hate 1078 01:07:51,640 --> 01:07:54,560 Speaker 2: if you're African, or you're from Barbados, so you're from Kenya. 1079 01:07:54,760 --> 01:07:58,000 Speaker 2: They even hate if you if you're from Detroit. And 1080 01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:00,800 Speaker 2: it's an issue we have in our career. How do 1081 01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:03,760 Speaker 2: we solve that and how do these folks who in 1082 01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:05,400 Speaker 2: that space, how do they get there? 1083 01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:09,640 Speaker 11: They got there? Because this is what we're taught every day, 1084 01:08:10,680 --> 01:08:14,240 Speaker 11: and it can be in subtle ways or obvious ways. 1085 01:08:14,320 --> 01:08:19,840 Speaker 11: If you go to a university here in Africa and 1086 01:08:20,000 --> 01:08:27,679 Speaker 11: other places, you will learn the European or whichever way 1087 01:08:28,360 --> 01:08:35,240 Speaker 11: that you will begin with Greeces though beginning of civilization, 1088 01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:39,240 Speaker 11: and where as an example of the way to that 1089 01:08:39,360 --> 01:08:44,040 Speaker 11: we should think and learn about these philosophers. But there's 1090 01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:47,960 Speaker 11: no understanding that the Greeks learned from the Africans. That's 1091 01:08:48,040 --> 01:08:55,320 Speaker 11: completely hidden. And even the later philosophers don't know anything 1092 01:08:55,400 --> 01:08:59,040 Speaker 11: about Africa. But if you don't know anything about Africa, 1093 01:08:59,080 --> 01:09:03,320 Speaker 11: you don't know anything about human beings because a we 1094 01:09:03,479 --> 01:09:08,560 Speaker 11: are all from Africa, but the history is inclusive of 1095 01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:12,600 Speaker 11: everything to do with Africa. So we're all taught this 1096 01:09:12,840 --> 01:09:16,240 Speaker 11: in different ways. Even when we can go to nursery 1097 01:09:16,360 --> 01:09:20,720 Speaker 11: and so on, we're taught the race paradigm and the 1098 01:09:20,840 --> 01:09:25,920 Speaker 11: idea that black people are inferior, that the women are inferior, 1099 01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:31,160 Speaker 11: and so black women come in the lowest point because 1100 01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:35,479 Speaker 11: they're both women and black, you know, which is not 1101 01:09:35,680 --> 01:09:41,720 Speaker 11: to deny that black men have been treated diabolically, but 1102 01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:45,120 Speaker 11: it is to say that when you put these things together, 1103 01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:51,160 Speaker 11: that we can practice also patriarchy, because that is, patriarchy 1104 01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:55,080 Speaker 11: and race are the dominant cultural beliefs in this society, 1105 01:09:55,200 --> 01:09:58,439 Speaker 11: and we're all being taught that. So this is why 1106 01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:02,880 Speaker 11: you know, it happens to us many of us are 1107 01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:07,960 Speaker 11: victims to it, but we don't have any knowledge of true. 1108 01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:13,920 Speaker 11: This is the problem. Knowledge is truth, and education is 1109 01:10:14,960 --> 01:10:18,840 Speaker 11: oriented towards the culture that develops it. So when we 1110 01:10:19,000 --> 01:10:25,520 Speaker 11: say we're educated here, we're really educated in the system. 1111 01:10:26,000 --> 01:10:31,840 Speaker 11: As Cartig Woodson taught us, that is teaching us what 1112 01:10:31,960 --> 01:10:37,720 Speaker 11: black people should know about themselves, which is inferiority and 1113 01:10:38,040 --> 01:10:42,280 Speaker 11: the superiority in the race paradigm of white people. We're 1114 01:10:42,360 --> 01:10:45,320 Speaker 11: all being taught that, but some of us have knowledge 1115 01:10:45,360 --> 01:10:50,400 Speaker 11: from the past that's been handed down for generations. So 1116 01:10:50,720 --> 01:10:54,120 Speaker 11: as though we have an idea that that is not true, 1117 01:10:54,320 --> 01:10:59,120 Speaker 11: we can feel that it's not true through our achievements 1118 01:10:59,240 --> 01:11:04,200 Speaker 11: and just what we feel. But the education system is 1119 01:11:04,320 --> 01:11:08,800 Speaker 11: teaching us that we are that black people, and the 1120 01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:14,160 Speaker 11: darkest skin black people in particular because of the race belief. 1121 01:11:14,760 --> 01:11:21,000 Speaker 11: So the lightest skinned black person, as we call it here, 1122 01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:25,839 Speaker 11: is privileged compared to the darkest skin black person, because 1123 01:11:26,560 --> 01:11:31,960 Speaker 11: this is the model of race, the hierarchy of race, 1124 01:11:32,160 --> 01:11:37,320 Speaker 11: which is, even though it's not true, we are all 1125 01:11:37,479 --> 01:11:41,200 Speaker 11: one race, the human race. Even though it's not true, 1126 01:11:41,800 --> 01:11:46,559 Speaker 11: it's still promoted in universities, in schools, in nurseries there 1127 01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:49,439 Speaker 11: and when we look at TV and all of those 1128 01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:53,519 Speaker 11: things is still there as an undercurrent. So many of 1129 01:11:53,600 --> 01:11:56,840 Speaker 11: us fall victim to it. We don't want to be black, 1130 01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:02,680 Speaker 11: We hate Africa, and we're treating other black people in 1131 01:12:02,720 --> 01:12:05,880 Speaker 11: the way that the race paradigm asked us to do, 1132 01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:10,920 Speaker 11: which is to disrespect them, disrespect ourselves, and sometimes we 1133 01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:14,640 Speaker 11: don't realizing that in disrespecting. 1134 01:12:15,160 --> 01:12:18,680 Speaker 2: Other You know, doctor hold, I thought there because I 1135 01:12:18,680 --> 01:12:21,000 Speaker 2: needed to repeat that for some of the family sitting 1136 01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:22,639 Speaker 2: in the back of the classroom, because we've got two 1137 01:12:22,640 --> 01:12:26,360 Speaker 2: groups out here, Ados and FDA. They're doing exactly what 1138 01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:29,000 Speaker 2: you're saying, and they've got people who are following them 1139 01:12:29,120 --> 01:12:31,160 Speaker 2: because they don't they don't do their research about these 1140 01:12:31,160 --> 01:12:34,000 Speaker 2: groups because they're created by white folks pushing this on 1141 01:12:34,120 --> 01:12:36,880 Speaker 2: us because you repeat that what you just said about 1142 01:12:37,200 --> 01:12:41,799 Speaker 2: despising the other Africans because they don't know they're African themselves. 1143 01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:45,280 Speaker 2: You know, they're they wrap around in their flags instead 1144 01:12:45,280 --> 01:12:47,400 Speaker 2: of the red, green, and black. They wrap around their 1145 01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:50,719 Speaker 2: stars and stripes or the Jamaican flag or Panamanian flag, 1146 01:12:50,760 --> 01:12:54,719 Speaker 2: whatever colonizer that took over their country. But they don't 1147 01:12:55,280 --> 01:12:58,519 Speaker 2: see themselves as Africans, can you? I just want you 1148 01:12:58,520 --> 01:12:59,840 Speaker 2: to repeat that for the folks in the back of 1149 01:12:59,840 --> 01:13:02,120 Speaker 2: the passon because that's where they hang out. 1150 01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:03,000 Speaker 12: Well. 1151 01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:09,120 Speaker 11: Yes, what I'm saying is that the race paradigm rules. 1152 01:13:10,720 --> 01:13:15,200 Speaker 11: The race paradigm is it's a structure where white people 1153 01:13:15,280 --> 01:13:19,719 Speaker 11: are the superior and it goes down to the black person. 1154 01:13:19,840 --> 01:13:23,800 Speaker 11: So it's white, yellow, red, brown, and black, and we 1155 01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:26,880 Speaker 11: all have a position in it, in the race paradigm, 1156 01:13:26,960 --> 01:13:30,800 Speaker 11: and it comes out of a polygenesis belief, which is 1157 01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:34,559 Speaker 11: a force belief that there are these races that arose 1158 01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:39,000 Speaker 11: up in different parts of the world, and we're genetically different, 1159 01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:44,280 Speaker 11: so we can't change. When you're genetically something you else, 1160 01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:48,280 Speaker 11: you can't really change that. So we use culture and 1161 01:13:48,600 --> 01:13:52,559 Speaker 11: reality and the movement of humans to show that we 1162 01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:56,839 Speaker 11: are only one race of people. We're ninety nine point 1163 01:13:56,920 --> 01:14:03,839 Speaker 11: nine the same we are as are African. About seventy 1164 01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:09,000 Speaker 11: thousand years ago, people began to migrate out of Africa 1165 01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:13,000 Speaker 11: and lived in different parts of the world. These are 1166 01:14:13,479 --> 01:14:20,360 Speaker 11: often called First Nations people, and we're taught that that 1167 01:14:20,680 --> 01:14:24,960 Speaker 11: race is real, but it is a falsehood created by 1168 01:14:25,040 --> 01:14:31,080 Speaker 11: white supremacists who want to maintain control over people by 1169 01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:39,760 Speaker 11: defining them in these ways and dividing people. The construct 1170 01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:45,479 Speaker 11: We can see it's alive, but it isn't based on truth. 1171 01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:54,479 Speaker 11: So to construct this took wars, torture, took the lives 1172 01:14:54,520 --> 01:14:58,160 Speaker 11: of hundreds of millions of people for us to actually 1173 01:14:58,240 --> 01:15:02,360 Speaker 11: believe that this is real, seems real, but is based 1174 01:15:02,400 --> 01:15:06,400 Speaker 11: on a falsehood. There's only one human race, that is it, 1175 01:15:07,120 --> 01:15:10,519 Speaker 11: and we have been divided in all these ways to 1176 01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:14,160 Speaker 11: look at the world from this angle. But it's been 1177 01:15:14,360 --> 01:15:20,600 Speaker 11: proven scientifically to be false. And it's been proven scientifically 1178 01:15:20,720 --> 01:15:25,240 Speaker 11: that we are all African, even though you know we 1179 01:15:25,280 --> 01:15:30,040 Speaker 11: can hate Africa and so on. We've been misguided, miseducated, 1180 01:15:32,040 --> 01:15:37,519 Speaker 11: and we do not have the knowledge and the history 1181 01:15:37,640 --> 01:15:43,280 Speaker 11: to be able to confront the constructive race. So most 1182 01:15:43,320 --> 01:15:47,160 Speaker 11: of us believe in it. And in that way, you know, 1183 01:15:47,400 --> 01:15:51,400 Speaker 11: we take on the values and beliefs of racist So 1184 01:15:51,920 --> 01:15:55,360 Speaker 11: we have to look at each other from a racist perspective, 1185 01:15:56,160 --> 01:15:59,679 Speaker 11: you know. So the racist perspective is that the darkest 1186 01:15:59,760 --> 01:16:04,640 Speaker 11: piece people are the most inferior and the whitest the 1187 01:16:04,720 --> 01:16:09,040 Speaker 11: most superior. Now, if you want to change position in 1188 01:16:09,120 --> 01:16:12,800 Speaker 11: the race paradigm, which is a falsehood, you have to 1189 01:16:12,920 --> 01:16:19,040 Speaker 11: do what those who created it do, which is to murder, kill, 1190 01:16:19,160 --> 01:16:22,719 Speaker 11: or hate all that type of thing to change the position, 1191 01:16:23,600 --> 01:16:27,920 Speaker 11: because it isn't the real It only exists because of 1192 01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:31,200 Speaker 11: all the more murder and slaughter that created it in 1193 01:16:31,240 --> 01:16:35,280 Speaker 11: the first place. This is why education is so important, 1194 01:16:35,320 --> 01:16:41,000 Speaker 11: because education from an afrocentric perspective is learning the truth 1195 01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:45,920 Speaker 11: of humanity and the true history of humanity, and that's 1196 01:16:46,120 --> 01:16:50,320 Speaker 11: called knowledge. Knowledge is called truth by our ancient African 1197 01:16:50,479 --> 01:16:54,840 Speaker 11: Barbs who built the first civilizations in the world. We 1198 01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:58,960 Speaker 11: have evidence of this, and you know, so even if 1199 01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:01,719 Speaker 11: we go to chem and we say, you know, this 1200 01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:05,240 Speaker 11: is evidence of the sciences of all the things that 1201 01:17:05,280 --> 01:17:12,559 Speaker 11: we build that later conquerors talk and manipulated into this 1202 01:17:12,680 --> 01:17:16,720 Speaker 11: world and claimed that they that they were the forebears 1203 01:17:16,800 --> 01:17:21,000 Speaker 11: of all these sciences and beliefs and varlues. If we 1204 01:17:21,080 --> 01:17:26,720 Speaker 11: look at Kemmot, Kemmitt knew about the movements of the planet. 1205 01:17:26,560 --> 01:17:28,320 Speaker 2: Right now, Hold up thought right there, Doctor Dove, we 1206 01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:29,760 Speaker 2: got to step aside and get caught up in the 1207 01:17:29,800 --> 01:17:33,160 Speaker 2: ladies news trafficking weather.

I mean, I'm trying 1243 01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:13,240 Speaker 11: to say that racism, that race, racism certainly real and 1244 01:19:13,400 --> 01:19:21,439 Speaker 11: the visions made amongst people based on phenotypical differences. These 1245 01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:29,040 Speaker 11: phenotypical differences are all different reflections of the earliest African people. 1246 01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:34,800 Speaker 11: So we're Sheno typically African, but we look different through 1247 01:19:34,920 --> 01:19:40,960 Speaker 11: climatic changes and diets, living in mountains, living by rivers, 1248 01:19:41,040 --> 01:19:45,720 Speaker 11: and living in urban you know, we've changed how we 1249 01:19:45,760 --> 01:19:50,840 Speaker 11: look over thousands of years, but we are one human race, 1250 01:19:51,080 --> 01:19:57,280 Speaker 11: but we're divided by our culture orientation. There are essentially 1251 01:19:57,720 --> 01:20:03,760 Speaker 11: two culture orientations manifests in hundreds of them. But the difference, 1252 01:20:03,880 --> 01:20:07,280 Speaker 11: the difference between them is the placement of the mother 1253 01:20:08,080 --> 01:20:13,080 Speaker 11: when she is respected and loved and revered as she 1254 01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:16,080 Speaker 11: was in the ancient times, because we wouldn't be here 1255 01:20:16,160 --> 01:20:20,599 Speaker 11: without her. She is the center of social organizations and 1256 01:20:20,720 --> 01:20:25,880 Speaker 11: everything that comes out of the family, the nation, etc. 1257 01:20:27,120 --> 01:20:34,519 Speaker 11: Is related to balance and truth to maintain that reciprocity 1258 01:20:34,760 --> 01:20:39,040 Speaker 11: between women and men who are who were the African 1259 01:20:39,080 --> 01:20:41,640 Speaker 11: women and men and the ancient times that were the 1260 01:20:41,720 --> 01:20:47,519 Speaker 11: ones who produced life and culture. The other version is 1261 01:20:47,960 --> 01:20:51,559 Speaker 11: the placement of the woman as being less than the man, 1262 01:20:51,640 --> 01:20:57,560 Speaker 11: as being inferior and lower down, you know, in the hierarchy, 1263 01:20:58,120 --> 01:21:00,960 Speaker 11: and there is as and it's not true. Women are 1264 01:21:01,040 --> 01:21:03,600 Speaker 11: equal to men. That's the end of the story. We 1265 01:21:03,680 --> 01:21:09,639 Speaker 11: can make ourselves equal, think we're inferior and superior because 1266 01:21:09,680 --> 01:21:13,120 Speaker 11: it is a belief system. But out of that arose 1267 01:21:13,640 --> 01:21:19,679 Speaker 11: all these hierarchies, ideas of inferiority and superiority, and one 1268 01:21:19,720 --> 01:21:23,080 Speaker 11: of them is the construction of race. That black people 1269 01:21:23,600 --> 01:21:27,439 Speaker 11: are inferior to white people. This is a construction and 1270 01:21:27,880 --> 01:21:34,040 Speaker 11: absolutely not true and not provable, but we believe in this. 1271 01:21:34,240 --> 01:21:40,839 Speaker 11: So I'm connecting race and patriarchy together as partners in crime, 1272 01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:46,799 Speaker 11: partners in falsehood that have been destructed, destructive in human life. 1273 01:21:47,000 --> 01:21:50,360 Speaker 11: So there are human beings, whether they're black or white, 1274 01:21:50,520 --> 01:21:54,840 Speaker 11: or yellow or red or brown, who believe not only 1275 01:21:54,880 --> 01:21:59,679 Speaker 11: in the inferiority of black people, particularly dark skinned people, 1276 01:22:00,439 --> 01:22:04,840 Speaker 11: but of women too, and in particular dark skinned women. 1277 01:22:05,400 --> 01:22:09,960 Speaker 11: So it's it's it's false, but we're made to believe it. 1278 01:22:10,040 --> 01:22:13,720 Speaker 11: We can believe it through the religions that you are 1279 01:22:13,800 --> 01:22:17,840 Speaker 11: going to be speaking about later. But culture, religion is 1280 01:22:19,080 --> 01:22:20,840 Speaker 11: a reflection of the Well, let. 1281 01:22:20,800 --> 01:22:23,360 Speaker 2: Me jump in here and ask your personal question, doctor Doff, 1282 01:22:23,360 --> 01:22:26,200 Speaker 2: because you would be consider what we call light skin, 1283 01:22:26,479 --> 01:22:31,920 Speaker 2: right whatever, So when you figure this out, did how 1284 01:22:31,960 --> 01:22:34,360 Speaker 2: did how did how did you process it? Because you, 1285 01:22:34,640 --> 01:22:38,200 Speaker 2: of course you are being light and she's an attractive 1286 01:22:38,200 --> 01:22:41,400 Speaker 2: system family, but she is like so you be on 1287 01:22:41,439 --> 01:22:44,720 Speaker 2: the upper end of the spectrum as opposed to the 1288 01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:46,559 Speaker 2: lower end of the spectrum. How did that? How did 1289 01:22:46,640 --> 01:22:48,840 Speaker 2: that hit you? Did it make sense to you? When 1290 01:22:48,880 --> 01:22:49,840 Speaker 2: you when you discover this. 1291 01:22:50,439 --> 01:22:54,240 Speaker 11: When I discovered this, I was at school and in 1292 01:22:54,320 --> 01:22:59,559 Speaker 11: the UK, and you know, I was always treated with 1293 01:23:00,160 --> 01:23:03,320 Speaker 11: stain and you know, went through the normal things that 1294 01:23:03,439 --> 01:23:06,960 Speaker 11: any black person goes through in school, because these were 1295 01:23:07,080 --> 01:23:10,800 Speaker 11: European schools and I was a black person inside there. 1296 01:23:11,520 --> 01:23:17,559 Speaker 11: But I remember a beautiful sister who had who entered 1297 01:23:17,600 --> 01:23:20,720 Speaker 11: the classroom and I just felt so relieved to see her, 1298 01:23:20,800 --> 01:23:24,680 Speaker 11: and she and I gravitated to each other regardless, and 1299 01:23:24,800 --> 01:23:28,960 Speaker 11: I was right, I'm privileged as a right person. And 1300 01:23:29,840 --> 01:23:35,560 Speaker 11: when she entered the school, the type of disgusting behavior 1301 01:23:35,640 --> 01:23:39,479 Speaker 11: that went to her made me know that I'm a 1302 01:23:39,520 --> 01:23:43,120 Speaker 11: privileged person. Even though it was disgusting behavior to me, 1303 01:23:43,240 --> 01:23:48,120 Speaker 11: it was much more so to her. She was a 1304 01:23:48,280 --> 01:23:53,000 Speaker 11: beautiful person entering a school that was racist, but it 1305 01:23:53,200 --> 01:23:59,040 Speaker 11: wasn't able to show its racism in full blast until 1306 01:23:59,160 --> 01:24:04,599 Speaker 11: she entered. So I recognized that I was privileged, even 1307 01:24:04,640 --> 01:24:08,360 Speaker 11: though it's a horrible thing. I don't want to be privileged, 1308 01:24:08,400 --> 01:24:11,240 Speaker 11: but I am. That is the reality. And this put 1309 01:24:11,320 --> 01:24:17,160 Speaker 11: me on a trajectory of looking more deeply at it. 1310 01:24:17,240 --> 01:24:22,960 Speaker 11: You know, my parents, I have a very dark skinned 1311 01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:30,839 Speaker 11: African father and a mother, a European mother, light skinned 1312 01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:37,000 Speaker 11: Jewish of Jewish heritage. She is completely was completely unaware 1313 01:24:37,040 --> 01:24:40,160 Speaker 11: of So I wasn't raised in any sort of church 1314 01:24:40,240 --> 01:24:43,960 Speaker 11: thing or anything like that. But because of the treatment 1315 01:24:44,360 --> 01:24:48,160 Speaker 11: my mother was spat upon in the streets because and 1316 01:24:48,240 --> 01:24:52,679 Speaker 11: threaten many many times because my father was a dark 1317 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:56,000 Speaker 11: skinned African and he was in fight. Even though he 1318 01:24:56,040 --> 01:25:00,920 Speaker 11: was a professional person, he managed to live through growing us, 1319 01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:04,800 Speaker 11: growing up in the UK, in Britain as it was 1320 01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:07,479 Speaker 11: at the time. But I was considered to be the 1321 01:25:07,520 --> 01:25:11,400 Speaker 11: devil spawn. So I know that there's a certain thing 1322 01:25:11,640 --> 01:25:16,560 Speaker 11: in racism that when these two racism, they're not racist 1323 01:25:16,600 --> 01:25:19,719 Speaker 11: at all, there's no such thing. There's only one human race. 1324 01:25:20,080 --> 01:25:23,480 Speaker 11: But when they come together, then they're like in children 1325 01:25:23,680 --> 01:25:28,519 Speaker 11: or like in children, are the devil spawn, whichever way 1326 01:25:28,560 --> 01:25:32,320 Speaker 11: you took it, take it, whether it's from the European 1327 01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:36,160 Speaker 11: angle or the black ankle. 1328 01:25:36,840 --> 01:25:38,599 Speaker 2: Right, am I going to hold you there because we're 1329 01:25:38,680 --> 01:25:42,240 Speaker 2: racing the clock and cliffs. He wants to join the conversation, 1330 01:25:42,360 --> 01:25:45,120 Speaker 2: Doctor Dove. He's in Connecticut. He's online too, Grand Rising 1331 01:25:45,160 --> 01:25:46,280 Speaker 2: Cliffy on with doctor R. 1332 01:25:46,360 --> 01:25:49,519 Speaker 9: Dove rising for the Carl and to the doctor. I 1333 01:25:49,560 --> 01:25:51,880 Speaker 9: believe you said that for us there's a black people 1334 01:25:52,320 --> 01:25:55,360 Speaker 9: in order to rise to another level, that we must 1335 01:25:55,520 --> 01:26:00,840 Speaker 9: duplicate the negative and forceful actions of our pressor or 1336 01:26:00,880 --> 01:26:02,920 Speaker 9: those worse imperiods. That that's not accurate. 1337 01:26:03,280 --> 01:26:03,559 Speaker 4: Doctor. 1338 01:26:04,320 --> 01:26:07,800 Speaker 11: No, I'm not saying that. I'm saying that we have 1339 01:26:08,040 --> 01:26:11,720 Speaker 11: our own African way of existing in the world, and 1340 01:26:11,760 --> 01:26:19,000 Speaker 11: we have to come back to those ethical principles ourselves 1341 01:26:19,040 --> 01:26:25,120 Speaker 11: through education, through freeing our minds from the construct which 1342 01:26:26,160 --> 01:26:31,000 Speaker 11: which requires us to do what racists do. I'm saying, no, 1343 01:26:31,240 --> 01:26:34,600 Speaker 11: we have different ways of being. That these two cultural 1344 01:26:34,680 --> 01:26:44,800 Speaker 11: orientations guide our minds, and we're thought the colonized imposition 1345 01:26:45,000 --> 01:26:47,759 Speaker 11: we have on our minds is to reflect the values 1346 01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:51,960 Speaker 11: and beliefs of the of the conquerors through culture. 1347 01:26:54,040 --> 01:26:56,040 Speaker 9: At the interrupt, but I just want to add this. 1348 01:26:56,520 --> 01:26:58,640 Speaker 9: I believe that you and you finally mentioned it and 1349 01:26:58,640 --> 01:27:00,680 Speaker 9: you brought up the issue of religion, and let me 1350 01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:04,080 Speaker 9: make this quick point that our oppressor and the things 1351 01:27:04,120 --> 01:27:07,639 Speaker 9: that they do is based on their belief that their 1352 01:27:07,680 --> 01:27:11,640 Speaker 9: God looks like them, that they're white. The white Christian nationalists, 1353 01:27:11,720 --> 01:27:14,960 Speaker 9: white Christian nationalists in this country believe that God has 1354 01:27:15,000 --> 01:27:18,160 Speaker 9: gave them this land and that any other people should 1355 01:27:18,240 --> 01:27:22,320 Speaker 9: not deserve to have this land and that other individuals 1356 01:27:22,320 --> 01:27:23,280 Speaker 9: should not exist. 1357 01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:24,680 Speaker 4: All I'm simply. 1358 01:27:24,439 --> 01:27:27,320 Speaker 9: Saying is that what you concluded to is that for 1359 01:27:27,360 --> 01:27:30,960 Speaker 9: we as a Black people, for us to elevate without 1360 01:27:31,080 --> 01:27:36,240 Speaker 9: doing anything negative, we must refer and get our own god. 1361 01:27:36,360 --> 01:27:40,120 Speaker 9: So you mentioned Kimmick, and you mentioned our African gods. 1362 01:27:40,320 --> 01:27:42,120 Speaker 9: We have to this the other and I must ask 1363 01:27:42,200 --> 01:27:44,320 Speaker 9: him to see if you agree. We must get out 1364 01:27:44,360 --> 01:27:47,960 Speaker 9: of this oppressor and its culture for example. 1365 01:27:47,680 --> 01:27:50,719 Speaker 2: Right and respond because they're racing the clock yet. 1366 01:27:50,760 --> 01:27:53,960 Speaker 4: Well ahead, and that has nothing to do with Black culture. 1367 01:27:54,000 --> 01:27:56,280 Speaker 9: But look at the black people will celebrate Eastern We 1368 01:27:56,360 --> 01:27:58,320 Speaker 9: got to get back to our own culture and find 1369 01:27:58,360 --> 01:28:01,160 Speaker 9: out who we are, which that makes sense, of course, 1370 01:28:01,200 --> 01:28:02,040 Speaker 9: it makes sense. 1371 01:28:02,479 --> 01:28:06,639 Speaker 11: I thoroughly believe you. You know, we're ancient. We go back. 1372 01:28:07,320 --> 01:28:13,599 Speaker 11: Africa produced the first ethical and moral standards, and you know, 1373 01:28:13,760 --> 01:28:20,040 Speaker 11: spiritual systems, these later constructs that reflect the culture of 1374 01:28:20,120 --> 01:28:24,759 Speaker 11: the people that have created them, saying it's all God's work, 1375 01:28:25,160 --> 01:28:29,280 Speaker 11: this hierarchy and so on, it's all God. Deemed that 1376 01:28:29,280 --> 01:28:36,320 Speaker 11: that wasn't They borrowed ideas duels from the ancient African 1377 01:28:36,439 --> 01:28:40,960 Speaker 11: principles and changed them to fit their own environments. So 1378 01:28:41,520 --> 01:28:44,360 Speaker 11: you have to have the knowledge of who were we 1379 01:28:44,560 --> 01:28:49,240 Speaker 11: before this happened, And I thoroughly agree with you. We 1380 01:28:49,439 --> 01:28:53,360 Speaker 11: have to go back. That's about being a truth seeker 1381 01:28:54,200 --> 01:28:58,120 Speaker 11: and I'm searching for the truth, and that's what we 1382 01:28:58,320 --> 01:29:02,400 Speaker 11: have to be, particularly as black people deemed black in 1383 01:29:02,479 --> 01:29:08,519 Speaker 11: this construct. That is our mission. We have to do that, 1384 01:29:09,160 --> 01:29:12,960 Speaker 11: you know, so the more of us that begin to 1385 01:29:13,080 --> 01:29:20,320 Speaker 11: understand these ancient principles of civilization can understand these more 1386 01:29:20,479 --> 01:29:29,080 Speaker 11: modern unprincipled principled ideas of barbarism. We are a barbarous 1387 01:29:29,160 --> 01:29:32,640 Speaker 11: people right now. We are inside a country that is 1388 01:29:32,760 --> 01:29:38,720 Speaker 11: killing people, led as you said, by the white nationalist 1389 01:29:39,880 --> 01:29:45,679 Speaker 11: religion and it and it condones murder every second, and 1390 01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:49,120 Speaker 11: it's it's file. But it's not based on the truth 1391 01:29:49,200 --> 01:29:52,599 Speaker 11: of Africa or African thinking. So we have to get 1392 01:29:52,600 --> 01:29:56,760 Speaker 11: that memory back through knowledge. It's so I agree, But 1393 01:29:56,840 --> 01:29:57,280 Speaker 11: we can. 1394 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:01,880 Speaker 2: With the ladies' traffic and weather' not different cities. I'll 1395 01:30:01,920 --> 01:30:03,320 Speaker 2: let you finish your thought on the other side of 1396 01:30:03,360 --> 01:30:05,479 Speaker 2: Faith Brothers coming up, We're going to continue this discussion 1397 01:30:05,479 --> 01:30:07,960 Speaker 2: with the Faith brothers talking about racism and religion. 1398 01:30:08,120 --> 01:30:08,439 Speaker 1: Family. 1399 01:30:08,479 --> 01:30:10,760 Speaker 2: You two can join our conversations. This morning. Just reach 1400 01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:12,760 Speaker 2: out to us at eight hundred four or five zero 1401 01:30:13,240 --> 01:30:15,519 Speaker 2: seventy eight seventy six and we'll take your phone calls 1402 01:30:15,520 --> 01:30:17,519 Speaker 2: after we check the traffic and weather. That's next, and 1403 01:30:17,640 --> 01:30:20,000 Speaker 2: Grand Rising family, thanks for starting your Wednesday with let's 1404 01:30:20,120 --> 01:30:21,760 Speaker 2: I was starting at the month with us. This is 1405 01:30:21,760 --> 01:30:25,519 Speaker 2: April first, and our guests from Temple University africology professor 1406 01:30:25,520 --> 01:30:29,120 Speaker 2: doctor no Dove discussing the effects of cultural domination, and 1407 01:30:29,200 --> 01:30:31,760 Speaker 2: she was responding to Clifford kinnecticuts call about religion and 1408 01:30:31,920 --> 01:30:34,519 Speaker 2: how religion is used. So doctor, then I'll let you 1409 01:30:34,560 --> 01:30:37,720 Speaker 2: finish your thought and then then we're going to move on. 1410 01:30:37,800 --> 01:30:39,439 Speaker 2: But we want you to tell us about the book 1411 01:30:39,479 --> 01:30:41,280 Speaker 2: that you have out and how can folks read you. 1412 01:30:42,640 --> 01:30:46,680 Speaker 11: Okay, thank you very much, And I'd just like to 1413 01:30:46,720 --> 01:30:51,759 Speaker 11: not throw religious people under the bus. What we need 1414 01:30:51,800 --> 01:30:55,400 Speaker 11: to know is what were the roots? You know, because 1415 01:30:55,439 --> 01:30:59,879 Speaker 11: there are jewels inside these modern religions. There are jewels 1416 01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:04,200 Speaker 11: and people can use those to gain higher learning and 1417 01:31:05,360 --> 01:31:09,519 Speaker 11: to rise above the actual religions themselves. That we have 1418 01:31:09,640 --> 01:31:13,280 Speaker 11: to look at the source. Where did these moral ideas 1419 01:31:13,320 --> 01:31:16,080 Speaker 11: come from? And they came from Africa, So we have 1420 01:31:16,200 --> 01:31:20,799 Speaker 11: to go beyond the few thousand years that much earlier. 1421 01:31:22,040 --> 01:31:25,680 Speaker 11: So that's just to let people know just because you 1422 01:31:25,760 --> 01:31:29,920 Speaker 11: have a religion, you know, but to look at the 1423 01:31:29,960 --> 01:31:35,960 Speaker 11: outcome and to seek truth. That's the book that really 1424 01:31:36,040 --> 01:31:43,000 Speaker 11: speaks to that in many ways is by doctor Molesticatiasanti 1425 01:31:43,320 --> 01:31:49,599 Speaker 11: and myself, and it's called Being Human Being and it 1426 01:31:49,680 --> 01:31:59,600 Speaker 11: looks at a history that explains the cultural orientation, the 1427 01:31:59,640 --> 01:32:03,320 Speaker 11: things that have happened in moral things that have happened 1428 01:32:03,360 --> 01:32:08,120 Speaker 11: to African people in the US in particular. So it's 1429 01:32:08,160 --> 01:32:12,040 Speaker 11: sort of a very worthwhile book. And my own book 1430 01:32:12,360 --> 01:32:18,560 Speaker 11: latest book is called Teaching Teachers the Afrocentric Model of Education, 1431 01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:25,320 Speaker 11: and it's culturally oriented and explains these types of differences 1432 01:32:25,360 --> 01:32:29,800 Speaker 11: in our thinking and give the examples of the effects 1433 01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:34,880 Speaker 11: of that. So I think that's everything. I'm just very 1434 01:32:35,040 --> 01:32:39,439 Speaker 11: honored to be here. Great questions. I feel like I've 1435 01:32:39,520 --> 01:32:43,240 Speaker 11: left so many things not tied up, but. 1436 01:32:45,439 --> 01:32:47,479 Speaker 2: We'll tie them up. We'll tie them up the next time, 1437 01:32:47,640 --> 01:32:50,840 Speaker 2: doctor Duff, because always have you on, we'll always get 1438 01:32:50,880 --> 01:32:53,080 Speaker 2: a great response from folks. They feel like they're in 1439 01:32:53,120 --> 01:32:56,840 Speaker 2: your classroom, a temple, getting this education for free.

We only 1451 01:33:42,360 --> 01:33:44,040 Speaker 2: hit on one that was religious, but I thank you 1452 01:33:44,080 --> 01:33:45,679 Speaker 2: for sharing your thoughts with us this morning. 1453 01:33:46,400 --> 01:33:47,960 Speaker 11: Thank you, Thank you again. 1454 01:33:48,880 --> 01:33:52,479 Speaker 2: All right, family, that's doctr RDL.

I know you've heard what 1464 01:34:15,680 --> 01:34:17,719 Speaker 2: doctor Dove said. Do you want to comment on anything 1465 01:34:17,760 --> 01:34:19,120 Speaker 2: that she said about religion. 1466 01:34:20,439 --> 01:34:23,640 Speaker 4: I think it's relevant what she said. I think it 1467 01:34:23,880 --> 01:34:31,720 Speaker 4: encompass and experience of humanity from not only a spiritual standpoint, 1468 01:34:32,439 --> 01:34:36,519 Speaker 4: but an actual cultural standpoint. People grow up together in 1469 01:34:36,600 --> 01:34:45,080 Speaker 4: certain regions, they have certain beliefs, they embrace certain genants 1470 01:34:45,120 --> 01:34:48,800 Speaker 4: that govern their cultural society, and there is a distinction 1471 01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:57,439 Speaker 4: between societies. And I think it was very informative at 1472 01:34:57,560 --> 01:35:10,040 Speaker 4: least it the question is there something deeper than the 1473 01:35:10,320 --> 01:35:16,120 Speaker 4: cultural impact that we seem to have now with domination? 1474 01:35:16,720 --> 01:35:23,040 Speaker 4: But it just did not start or began in this era. 1475 01:35:24,400 --> 01:35:26,919 Speaker 2: For one, Let me interrupt. You were saying that because 1476 01:35:26,960 --> 01:35:29,240 Speaker 2: the Cliff called in and he says that religion is 1477 01:35:29,320 --> 01:35:30,280 Speaker 2: part of that domination. 1478 01:35:32,520 --> 01:35:38,439 Speaker 4: Well, I think that from a Western view, and from 1479 01:35:38,520 --> 01:35:47,240 Speaker 4: a standpoint of many people, they feel that not religion itself, 1480 01:35:47,280 --> 01:35:50,320 Speaker 4: because that encompassed a lot of different things. But I 1481 01:35:50,320 --> 01:35:56,080 Speaker 4: think he was speaking about Christianity in particular being associated 1482 01:35:56,160 --> 01:36:01,800 Speaker 4: with the culture that is e'recentric, and there are some 1483 01:36:01,960 --> 01:36:07,680 Speaker 4: truths in that as to how it was used initially 1484 01:36:07,840 --> 01:36:14,799 Speaker 4: foundationally for the disserviency of black people. 1485 01:36:15,320 --> 01:36:17,080 Speaker 2: All right, let me jump in and ask you this question. 1486 01:36:17,200 --> 01:36:19,680 Speaker 2: Let me let me go to pastor manic pastimaning. Is 1487 01:36:19,760 --> 01:36:20,639 Speaker 2: racism a sin? 1488 01:36:23,040 --> 01:36:24,080 Speaker 13: Is racism a sin? 1489 01:36:24,760 --> 01:36:25,880 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1490 01:36:26,000 --> 01:36:30,640 Speaker 13: Yes, I believe racism is a sin for several reasons 1491 01:36:31,200 --> 01:36:34,719 Speaker 13: because it the primary thing that racism does is that 1492 01:36:35,160 --> 01:36:44,880 Speaker 13: it separates. It is established on a principle that desires 1493 01:36:44,920 --> 01:36:50,040 Speaker 13: to tear down or disregard human dignity and the sanctity 1494 01:36:50,080 --> 01:36:53,600 Speaker 13: of life, the fact that we were all created in 1495 01:36:53,680 --> 01:36:58,360 Speaker 13: the image of God, the mago dee, and racism definitely, 1496 01:36:59,080 --> 01:37:05,480 Speaker 13: consistently and originally just comes against that, that whole principle. 1497 01:37:07,320 --> 01:37:12,920 Speaker 13: It's a sin because it's also designed to oppress. And 1498 01:37:12,960 --> 01:37:18,000 Speaker 13: when God created human humanity, he gave us dominion. He said, 1499 01:37:18,000 --> 01:37:20,599 Speaker 13: I give you dominion, gave his dominion over everything that 1500 01:37:20,640 --> 01:37:23,639 Speaker 13: he created. He didn't give us dominion over each other. 1501 01:37:23,720 --> 01:37:27,840 Speaker 13: He never said dominate each other, oppress each other. So 1502 01:37:27,960 --> 01:37:33,519 Speaker 13: again we know that that whole concept that has been built, 1503 01:37:33,760 --> 01:37:38,200 Speaker 13: the racism has been built on, comes against God's original 1504 01:37:38,240 --> 01:37:43,559 Speaker 13: intent for mankind. The scripture tells us that God did not. 1505 01:37:44,320 --> 01:37:47,479 Speaker 13: Even when it comes to as we're preparing to celebrate 1506 01:37:47,520 --> 01:37:51,040 Speaker 13: the resurrection of Christ John three point sixteen, we all 1507 01:37:51,120 --> 01:37:53,439 Speaker 13: know you see that football games, right, you see it 1508 01:37:53,680 --> 01:37:56,360 Speaker 13: in the end zone and in all of these other places. 1509 01:37:56,400 --> 01:37:58,040 Speaker 13: For God so loved the world that he gave his 1510 01:37:58,080 --> 01:38:00,599 Speaker 13: only be gotten son, that who shall I ever believed 1511 01:38:00,680 --> 01:38:03,120 Speaker 13: in him, would not perish, but have ever lasting life. 1512 01:38:03,240 --> 01:38:05,880 Speaker 13: And that's a powerful passage and one of the most, 1513 01:38:06,320 --> 01:38:10,000 Speaker 13: if not the most popular scripture out of the Biblical text. 1514 01:38:10,000 --> 01:38:13,280 Speaker 13: But John three seventeen says brother Carl, for God to 1515 01:38:13,360 --> 01:38:17,440 Speaker 13: not send his son into the world to condemn the world, 1516 01:38:17,479 --> 01:38:19,960 Speaker 13: but that the world through him might be saved. So 1517 01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:24,479 Speaker 13: God's plan for mankind has never been condemnation and destruction. 1518 01:38:24,600 --> 01:38:27,519 Speaker 13: If that's what God wanted to do, that would be easy, right, 1519 01:38:27,880 --> 01:38:31,320 Speaker 13: to destroy the world that he created. But no, God's 1520 01:38:31,320 --> 01:38:35,479 Speaker 13: plan has always been salvation and redemption. And the whole 1521 01:38:35,520 --> 01:38:40,920 Speaker 13: concept of racism opposes salvation and redemption for all of humanity. 1522 01:38:41,439 --> 01:38:45,600 Speaker 13: Right when you talk about nationalists and other groups that 1523 01:38:45,760 --> 01:38:48,439 Speaker 13: believe that they are the only ones, they are the 1524 01:38:48,479 --> 01:38:54,600 Speaker 13: only true race and pure race, all of these erroneous 1525 01:38:55,000 --> 01:39:01,040 Speaker 13: teachings come. They directly oppose what God meant with God 1526 01:39:01,080 --> 01:39:04,840 Speaker 13: intended and how God designed humanity. 1527 01:39:05,920 --> 01:39:08,320 Speaker 2: Right ten half that tough the family just joining us 1528 01:39:08,360 --> 01:39:10,479 Speaker 2: the faith brothers here, doctor J. Edmonds, are past the 1529 01:39:10,640 --> 01:39:14,320 Speaker 2: current Manning and doctor Edmunds a scholar that you are. 1530 01:39:14,360 --> 01:39:18,280 Speaker 2: You heard what Pastor Manning said about racism and the 1531 01:39:18,360 --> 01:39:22,639 Speaker 2: church of the White nationalists? Why why is and basically 1532 01:39:22,680 --> 01:39:26,040 Speaker 2: tell me where did they find out dividing us? I 1533 01:39:26,080 --> 01:39:31,560 Speaker 2: think as a doctor, doctor doctor Nodupp discussed about the hierarchy, 1534 01:39:31,680 --> 01:39:35,479 Speaker 2: the color spectrum. You know, they believe that if the 1535 01:39:35,560 --> 01:39:39,200 Speaker 2: dark you are, the more, the uglier, the worst you are, 1536 01:39:39,520 --> 01:39:41,960 Speaker 2: the closer they are to them, and they use that 1537 01:39:42,080 --> 01:39:45,560 Speaker 2: in their scriptures. The White nationalists. Now, how can where 1538 01:39:45,600 --> 01:39:47,920 Speaker 2: did all this come from? Is it biblical or is 1539 01:39:47,960 --> 01:39:49,040 Speaker 2: this something they made up? 1540 01:39:50,520 --> 01:39:53,960 Speaker 4: It's not biblical at all. It's basically they are hermin 1541 01:39:54,040 --> 01:39:59,599 Speaker 4: nutics their interpretation of certain particular scripture. But deeper still, 1542 01:40:01,680 --> 01:40:11,280 Speaker 4: it hinges on one's cultural belief as it relates to 1543 01:40:12,479 --> 01:40:19,479 Speaker 4: a desire to dominate. So that has to do with 1544 01:40:19,640 --> 01:40:29,240 Speaker 4: that which is within, and it's been embraced so wholeheartedly 1545 01:40:30,200 --> 01:40:35,160 Speaker 4: that it become a part of the edict of that 1546 01:40:35,400 --> 01:40:44,759 Speaker 4: cultural gathering, and so it spills over. Domination always spills 1547 01:40:44,800 --> 01:40:53,360 Speaker 4: over as it relates to relegating one to being subservient eureycentrically. 1548 01:40:53,439 --> 01:40:59,320 Speaker 4: It started out as an economic venture and then from 1549 01:40:59,360 --> 01:41:07,320 Speaker 4: that point it served as a unseen force to keep 1550 01:41:08,240 --> 01:41:14,720 Speaker 4: a people in subjection so that it changes their thoughts 1551 01:41:14,760 --> 01:41:19,040 Speaker 4: about themselves. In other words, if they said enough, meaning 1552 01:41:19,160 --> 01:41:23,400 Speaker 4: the oppressor says it enough that that person is inferior 1553 01:41:23,600 --> 01:41:33,760 Speaker 4: due to color, due to inabilities to absorb a new 1554 01:41:33,960 --> 01:41:36,960 Speaker 4: concept or language or what have you been, that person 1555 01:41:37,640 --> 01:41:42,120 Speaker 4: will actually come to believe that, and therefore sets in 1556 01:41:42,280 --> 01:41:50,680 Speaker 4: motion the dichotomy differences and one buys in on it. 1557 01:41:50,880 --> 01:41:54,720 Speaker 4: I think that's what the professor was speaking about. And 1558 01:41:54,880 --> 01:41:58,120 Speaker 4: many of the callers that called in with frustration relative 1559 01:41:58,200 --> 01:42:07,519 Speaker 4: to racism, that it genders this self evaluation where one 1560 01:42:07,600 --> 01:42:11,479 Speaker 4: begin to evaluate themselves and they come to that cross 1561 01:42:11,640 --> 01:42:16,000 Speaker 4: road of either believing what has been said about them, 1562 01:42:16,400 --> 01:42:21,800 Speaker 4: which is ingreened within the psyche, or rejecting all of 1563 01:42:21,840 --> 01:42:28,400 Speaker 4: that and then applying what truly they are from a 1564 01:42:28,479 --> 01:42:29,640 Speaker 4: similar standpoint. 1565 01:42:30,520 --> 01:42:34,200 Speaker 2: Gotcha fourteen a half that top there. Folks want already 1566 01:42:34,200 --> 01:42:35,680 Speaker 2: want to speak with the Faith brothers. I got a 1567 01:42:35,680 --> 01:42:38,479 Speaker 2: tweet from Mark's question is though, he says, my question 1568 01:42:38,520 --> 01:42:40,160 Speaker 2: for the Faith Brothers, I'll give this one over to 1569 01:42:41,120 --> 01:42:44,559 Speaker 2: Pastor Manning. It says, is it's twofold, Pastor mine he said, 1570 01:42:44,920 --> 01:42:47,880 Speaker 2: does the God in which you ascribe to answer all 1571 01:42:47,920 --> 01:42:51,040 Speaker 2: prayers from individuals who believe in him or her? And 1572 01:42:51,080 --> 01:42:54,599 Speaker 2: if so, how many people's prayers are required before we 1573 01:42:54,680 --> 01:42:58,000 Speaker 2: see the results of your God's work? And he says, Oh, 1574 01:42:58,080 --> 01:42:58,679 Speaker 2: that makes sense. 1575 01:43:01,960 --> 01:43:06,560 Speaker 13: The God that I believe in answer all prayers? 1576 01:43:08,880 --> 01:43:12,720 Speaker 2: And how are required before we see the results of 1577 01:43:12,760 --> 01:43:13,320 Speaker 2: God's work? 1578 01:43:15,439 --> 01:43:20,160 Speaker 13: Yeah, I know my response to that question would be 1579 01:43:21,840 --> 01:43:25,960 Speaker 13: my based on my faith in God's faithfulness. God does 1580 01:43:26,120 --> 01:43:31,400 Speaker 13: answer prayer. When someone asks the question all prayers again, 1581 01:43:31,560 --> 01:43:34,799 Speaker 13: that that to me is kind of a bated question 1582 01:43:36,040 --> 01:43:41,120 Speaker 13: as to the answer. Could suppose that he answers some 1583 01:43:41,320 --> 01:43:44,360 Speaker 13: and not all. God answers prayer. One of the challenges 1584 01:43:44,439 --> 01:43:49,960 Speaker 13: was answering that question, probably as directly as the caller 1585 01:43:50,000 --> 01:43:53,920 Speaker 13: would want me to. Is that the challenge, the only 1586 01:43:54,040 --> 01:43:56,320 Speaker 13: challenge of the major challenge I believe we have with 1587 01:43:56,439 --> 01:43:59,960 Speaker 13: prayer or prayer or or answer prayer is the whole 1588 01:44:00,400 --> 01:44:05,800 Speaker 13: concept of unanswered prayer. God cares for his creation, He 1589 01:44:05,840 --> 01:44:09,559 Speaker 13: loves us, and He's orchestrated a plan for our as 1590 01:44:09,600 --> 01:44:15,200 Speaker 13: I said, our salvation and our redemption. Sometimes God's ways, 1591 01:44:15,320 --> 01:44:18,000 Speaker 13: not sometimes. But the scripture tells us that his thoughts 1592 01:44:18,000 --> 01:44:21,080 Speaker 13: are not our thoughts. His ways are not our ways. 1593 01:44:21,439 --> 01:44:27,000 Speaker 13: So our expectations of God responding to us the way 1594 01:44:27,040 --> 01:44:29,600 Speaker 13: that we want to when we pray, we want the 1595 01:44:29,680 --> 01:44:33,360 Speaker 13: answer and the outcome to be in our favor. And 1596 01:44:33,520 --> 01:44:36,639 Speaker 13: as a child of God and as a believer a Christian, 1597 01:44:37,160 --> 01:44:39,479 Speaker 13: I can tell you, and you know my story very well, 1598 01:44:39,880 --> 01:44:42,840 Speaker 13: brother Carl and doctor j it hasn't always been that 1599 01:44:42,880 --> 01:44:47,719 Speaker 13: way for me, a pastor who've been pastoring full time 1600 01:44:47,760 --> 01:44:50,360 Speaker 13: for thirty five years now this Sunday will be twenty 1601 01:44:50,360 --> 01:44:55,360 Speaker 13: five years in Pasadena for me, and my prayers haven't 1602 01:44:55,400 --> 01:44:58,680 Speaker 13: been answered always in the way that I've expected or 1603 01:44:58,680 --> 01:45:02,360 Speaker 13: in the way that I've presented them to God. But 1604 01:45:02,360 --> 01:45:07,479 Speaker 13: but that still does not take away in any measure 1605 01:45:07,600 --> 01:45:13,519 Speaker 13: my faith in God's faithfulness, because after doing the math 1606 01:45:13,720 --> 01:45:18,440 Speaker 13: is one of the Christian gospel artists said it so eloquency, 1607 01:45:18,520 --> 01:45:20,759 Speaker 13: all of my good days, I'll weigh my bad days 1608 01:45:21,280 --> 01:45:28,000 Speaker 13: and I won't complain. So, yeah, God answers prayer. God 1609 01:45:28,080 --> 01:45:33,880 Speaker 13: responds to our our prayer and our need. But every 1610 01:45:34,000 --> 01:45:37,599 Speaker 13: prayer answered, I don't know if I would say yes 1611 01:45:37,760 --> 01:45:40,479 Speaker 13: in that way. I know that God cares about us 1612 01:45:40,479 --> 01:45:43,759 Speaker 13: and He's moving and he's working in our lives. God 1613 01:45:43,840 --> 01:45:48,840 Speaker 13: loves and God is orchestrating and putting and and and 1614 01:45:49,280 --> 01:45:54,160 Speaker 13: desiring salvation for those who don't pray, because it's not 1615 01:45:54,520 --> 01:45:59,799 Speaker 13: just about praying. God loves everybody, and he wants, according 1616 01:45:59,840 --> 01:46:03,200 Speaker 13: to the scripture, everybody to be saved and to come 1617 01:46:03,240 --> 01:46:05,960 Speaker 13: into the knowledge of his Son. And he wants his 1618 01:46:06,080 --> 01:46:10,280 Speaker 13: glory to be revealed to all mankind and to cover 1619 01:46:10,320 --> 01:46:13,320 Speaker 13: the earth. As the scripture says, as the waters closed 1620 01:46:13,400 --> 01:46:15,200 Speaker 13: the sea right and I left. 1621 01:46:15,080 --> 01:46:17,840 Speaker 2: The right there, Pastor Maning, we have seven a few 1622 01:46:17,880 --> 01:46:19,960 Speaker 2: months and watch the clock asse eighteen after the topay, 1623 01:46:19,960 --> 01:46:21,840 Speaker 2: I'll let you finish your thought.

That's 1636 01:46:54,840 --> 01:46:59,400 Speaker 13: according to the First Timothy chapter two, verse verse four. 1637 01:46:59,840 --> 01:47:03,680 Speaker 13: And also the scripture tells us in two Peter chapter three, 1638 01:47:03,760 --> 01:47:05,960 Speaker 13: verse nine that the Lord is not slack concerning his 1639 01:47:06,080 --> 01:47:08,960 Speaker 13: promise as some men would count slackness, but is long 1640 01:47:09,040 --> 01:47:12,040 Speaker 13: suffering to us, not willing that any ship perish, but 1641 01:47:12,160 --> 01:47:15,559 Speaker 13: all come to repentance. Now that's God's desire for us, 1642 01:47:15,800 --> 01:47:18,920 Speaker 13: and I guess I would ask the caller or the 1643 01:47:19,240 --> 01:47:23,880 Speaker 13: tweeter to consider our desire for him, because the Bible says, 1644 01:47:23,920 --> 01:47:29,040 Speaker 13: if anyone wants that connection, that that and put our 1645 01:47:29,040 --> 01:47:31,559 Speaker 13: trust in God, we must believe first of all that 1646 01:47:31,600 --> 01:47:34,240 Speaker 13: he exists, and then then second of all that he 1647 01:47:34,320 --> 01:47:38,559 Speaker 13: rewards those who earnestly seek him.

No, no, no, God desires a 1653 01:47:54,800 --> 01:47:58,320 Speaker 13: relationship with us. God has created us to be able 1654 01:47:58,360 --> 01:48:01,960 Speaker 13: to respond to him, and as he responds to us, says, 1655 01:48:02,040 --> 01:48:04,719 Speaker 13: draw nigh to God, and he'll draw nigh to you. 1656 01:48:05,439 --> 01:48:07,799 Speaker 13: God wishes it now with pers but He also created 1657 01:48:07,880 --> 01:48:11,320 Speaker 13: us where we have to make that decision. So we 1658 01:48:11,439 --> 01:48:14,360 Speaker 13: have to believe. The scripture says that he exists. We 1659 01:48:14,439 --> 01:48:16,760 Speaker 13: have to have faith, we have to trust.

Twenty three 1664 01:48:28,240 --> 01:48:30,720 Speaker 2: after top there, Rick and Laurel Maryland has a question 1665 01:48:30,800 --> 01:48:33,400 Speaker 2: for you guys. She's on line one. Grand Rich and 1666 01:48:33,479 --> 01:48:36,200 Speaker 2: Rick your question for the faith brothers, Yes, sir. 1667 01:48:36,280 --> 01:48:39,519 Speaker 14: Yeah, rise in his brand. Jesus will tell you in 1668 01:48:39,640 --> 01:48:44,320 Speaker 14: morning time. Look at Pastor Manning. Uh you call, I 1669 01:48:44,360 --> 01:48:46,600 Speaker 14: asked you in the beginning. I'm not criticized. I'm just 1670 01:48:46,960 --> 01:48:48,840 Speaker 14: want to be sure. Call asked you in the beginning, 1671 01:48:48,920 --> 01:48:52,200 Speaker 14: is racism is sin? And you said, I believe it 1672 01:48:52,240 --> 01:48:55,200 Speaker 14: is either yes or no. That's all I mean. I'm 1673 01:48:55,200 --> 01:48:57,400 Speaker 14: not being critical, but you know, if somebody is listening. 1674 01:48:57,479 --> 01:48:59,800 Speaker 14: It's just joining faith or whatever, and you hear and 1675 01:48:59,840 --> 01:49:03,800 Speaker 14: you here, I believe it is. Then that's really like 1676 01:49:03,840 --> 01:49:07,960 Speaker 14: an opinion. But anyway, that's all I got. Oh yeah, 1677 01:49:08,240 --> 01:49:10,080 Speaker 14: the last time your Brothers is on, I asked a 1678 01:49:10,160 --> 01:49:13,639 Speaker 14: question about the Bible, and I think I meant worded wrong. 1679 01:49:14,240 --> 01:49:19,920 Speaker 14: Do you brothers believe that women should lead the church? 1680 01:49:21,400 --> 01:49:24,280 Speaker 14: That's my question, do you think women should lead the church. 1681 01:49:25,840 --> 01:49:28,080 Speaker 13: But I'm glad you gave me a little grace. I 1682 01:49:28,200 --> 01:49:30,800 Speaker 13: let doctor J answer that second part. But I'm just 1683 01:49:30,840 --> 01:49:33,160 Speaker 13: glad you gave me a little grace. When I said 1684 01:49:33,200 --> 01:49:37,120 Speaker 13: I believe it is, I was not wavering isolating. So 1685 01:49:37,720 --> 01:49:40,960 Speaker 13: racism is a sin, definitely a sin. And I'm glad 1686 01:49:41,000 --> 01:49:44,519 Speaker 13: you also acknowledge that you may have worded your statement 1687 01:49:44,560 --> 01:49:48,000 Speaker 13: wrong last time as well. So sometimes you know, we 1688 01:49:48,040 --> 01:49:51,360 Speaker 13: don't always the words don't come out immediately the way 1689 01:49:51,400 --> 01:49:54,080 Speaker 13: that we have them, or we're constructing them in our heads. 1690 01:49:54,160 --> 01:49:56,599 Speaker 13: But I do know that racism is a sin based 1691 01:49:56,680 --> 01:49:59,760 Speaker 13: on the other evidence that I gave from the scripture 1692 01:50:00,400 --> 01:50:01,639 Speaker 13: and about God's character. 1693 01:50:02,680 --> 01:50:03,519 Speaker 2: All right, doctor J. 1694 01:50:06,080 --> 01:50:10,240 Speaker 4: As to the question should women lead the church? Why not? 1695 01:50:12,600 --> 01:50:17,240 Speaker 4: With God, it's about that which one has been endowed with. 1696 01:50:17,720 --> 01:50:24,160 Speaker 4: There's neither male nor female Jew or Greek, or slave 1697 01:50:25,680 --> 01:50:32,680 Speaker 4: or free. In that context, when God gives something relative 1698 01:50:32,760 --> 01:50:38,480 Speaker 4: to a divine prompting to anyone, whether male or female, 1699 01:50:39,320 --> 01:50:41,519 Speaker 4: then they go with that they are prompted of God 1700 01:50:41,600 --> 01:50:42,120 Speaker 4: to do so. 1701 01:50:43,800 --> 01:50:46,759 Speaker 2: All right, twenty five of the top day, Brother Collis 1702 01:50:46,880 --> 01:50:49,120 Speaker 2: is calling from Waldorf in Maryland. He's on nine four 1703 01:50:49,760 --> 01:50:53,040 Speaker 2: Grand Rising, Brother Colus, you're on with the Faith Brothers. 1704 01:50:53,200 --> 01:50:56,720 Speaker 15: Grand Rising, my dear brothers, and it's a pleasure to 1705 01:50:56,760 --> 01:51:04,320 Speaker 15: speak to you and to hear your analysis and your inspirationals. 1706 01:51:05,200 --> 01:51:09,320 Speaker 15: What I'm going to enquire about is a critique and 1707 01:51:09,360 --> 01:51:13,960 Speaker 15: not a criticism, and it has to do with the 1708 01:51:14,040 --> 01:51:19,439 Speaker 15: penetration of who are the Chosen People, which has been 1709 01:51:19,479 --> 01:51:24,600 Speaker 15: a cloak for genocide for a certain segment of the 1710 01:51:24,720 --> 01:51:30,120 Speaker 15: Chosen people. Now, last time past the jay I think 1711 01:51:30,200 --> 01:51:37,120 Speaker 15: you mentioned that the Jews are comprised of the Ascaronases 1712 01:51:37,680 --> 01:51:43,480 Speaker 15: and the Sophoics, but you did not mention the Flashes, 1713 01:51:44,560 --> 01:51:47,599 Speaker 15: which according to the World Atlas of the Jewish people, 1714 01:51:48,240 --> 01:51:54,559 Speaker 15: the Falashes, those from Ethiopia are called Beta Israel, the 1715 01:51:54,680 --> 01:52:00,719 Speaker 15: original Jews. The closest thing to the original Jews. Also, 1716 01:52:01,160 --> 01:52:05,640 Speaker 15: I wanted to clarify that the book called a Thirteen 1717 01:52:05,960 --> 01:52:13,280 Speaker 15: Tribe by author Ketslav points out that those people who 1718 01:52:14,920 --> 01:52:20,000 Speaker 15: reign over Israel today come from the Black Sea regions 1719 01:52:20,040 --> 01:52:25,880 Speaker 15: and the Caucasus in Europe and do not represent those 1720 01:52:26,160 --> 01:52:32,200 Speaker 15: original Israelites or Jews that found it Israel. So I'm 1721 01:52:32,240 --> 01:52:38,200 Speaker 15: doing it from his historical perspective because religions have let 1722 01:52:38,280 --> 01:52:43,200 Speaker 15: us down a path sometimes where we cover and cloak 1723 01:52:44,360 --> 01:52:52,360 Speaker 15: or a genocidal, maniacal people in Israel today that are 1724 01:52:52,439 --> 01:52:56,919 Speaker 15: perpetrating this on other people, the genocide on other peoples. 1725 01:52:57,160 --> 01:52:59,680 Speaker 15: So that's my comment. I don't know whether you want 1726 01:52:59,680 --> 01:53:03,519 Speaker 15: to responded that a lot, but I wanted to clarify that. 1727 01:53:04,920 --> 01:53:08,040 Speaker 4: All right, thanks for the college very good, very good 1728 01:53:13,479 --> 01:53:21,120 Speaker 4: sense of dissemination of that information. The Lashes as it 1729 01:53:21,200 --> 01:53:29,240 Speaker 4: relates to they're being associated with Jews. We have to 1730 01:53:29,320 --> 01:53:34,720 Speaker 4: understand that the very word Jew has to do with 1731 01:53:34,960 --> 01:53:42,040 Speaker 4: the practice of one's religious belief as it relates to 1732 01:53:44,400 --> 01:53:50,280 Speaker 4: the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, but more specifically 1733 01:53:50,320 --> 01:53:56,200 Speaker 4: with Jacob because of his twelve Sons, and the message 1734 01:53:56,479 --> 01:54:02,080 Speaker 4: within Ethiopia was a message that came as a result 1735 01:54:03,400 --> 01:54:09,879 Speaker 4: of the knowledge of the true and living God of Jacob, 1736 01:54:10,000 --> 01:54:14,679 Speaker 4: whose name was changed to Israel, and it's settled there 1737 01:54:14,760 --> 01:54:19,280 Speaker 4: and it was practiced there. There's a difference between a 1738 01:54:19,479 --> 01:54:23,880 Speaker 4: Jew and an Israelite, and israel Lite is one who 1739 01:54:23,920 --> 01:54:32,160 Speaker 4: actually came out of Jacob's lawings his lineage, so he's 1740 01:54:32,240 --> 01:54:36,760 Speaker 4: in israel light because Jacob's name was changed to Israel, 1741 01:54:37,720 --> 01:54:40,400 Speaker 4: and any that came out of one of those twelve 1742 01:54:40,520 --> 01:54:46,440 Speaker 4: tribes are israel Lite, a Jewish one who embraces those 1743 01:54:46,680 --> 01:54:51,480 Speaker 4: principles of the law that was handed down, and specifically 1744 01:54:52,000 --> 01:54:59,000 Speaker 4: in Ethiopia, there was an embracing of that. Now as 1745 01:54:59,000 --> 01:55:03,480 Speaker 4: it relates to the those who came up around the 1746 01:55:03,480 --> 01:55:07,520 Speaker 4: Black Sea in the Caucasius Mountains, and I think I 1747 01:55:07,680 --> 01:55:14,800 Speaker 4: talked about that those are Sepharti who branched out into 1748 01:55:15,080 --> 01:55:23,640 Speaker 4: Spain and Europe, so their counterfeit when it comes down 1749 01:55:23,760 --> 01:55:30,480 Speaker 4: to the true Israelites themselves, So not to leave them out, 1750 01:55:30,800 --> 01:55:35,920 Speaker 4: but I thought in my discussion that Alscnali and Sapharti 1751 01:55:36,040 --> 01:55:40,800 Speaker 4: would be the main categories by which today we have 1752 01:55:41,040 --> 01:55:49,720 Speaker 4: the Asiatic Jews who are occupying that strip alongside the 1753 01:55:49,760 --> 01:55:57,040 Speaker 4: Mediterranean who proposed to be the original Jews. It's simply 1754 01:55:57,120 --> 01:55:57,640 Speaker 4: not true. 1755 01:55:58,960 --> 01:56:00,800 Speaker 2: Well, let me tell you on asking this question, though, 1756 01:56:01,320 --> 01:56:03,560 Speaker 2: doctor Evans A twenty nine away from the South Ave, 1757 01:56:03,800 --> 01:56:06,000 Speaker 2: can we at least agree that the era that they're 1758 01:56:06,040 --> 01:56:09,800 Speaker 2: fighting for, these Raelis and you can correct me I 1759 01:56:09,840 --> 01:56:13,000 Speaker 2: from is the difference between Israelis and Jewish people? The 1760 01:56:13,040 --> 01:56:17,120 Speaker 2: era they're finding out that's not the Israel that's represented 1761 01:56:17,160 --> 01:56:19,600 Speaker 2: in the Bible. Is that something we can agree on. 1762 01:56:20,840 --> 01:56:28,760 Speaker 4: There's an encroachment and they're fighting for land that cannot 1763 01:56:28,880 --> 01:56:34,800 Speaker 4: be distinguishable from that which was given originally, that entire 1764 01:56:34,920 --> 01:56:39,880 Speaker 4: strip of land all the way down to Egypt or 1765 01:56:40,120 --> 01:56:44,440 Speaker 4: going into Egypt that was given to Israel. It was 1766 01:56:44,480 --> 01:56:49,800 Speaker 4: the land of the Canaanites. Canaan was the grandson of Noah, 1767 01:56:50,760 --> 01:56:54,600 Speaker 4: and that was the land that was given to the 1768 01:56:54,720 --> 01:57:00,800 Speaker 4: Canaanites were to be subservient to his brother. Has no 1769 01:57:00,960 --> 01:57:03,400 Speaker 4: of that said, so. 1770 01:57:03,720 --> 01:57:06,760 Speaker 2: That I'm confused. Is the land that they're fighting for 1771 01:57:06,920 --> 01:57:10,400 Speaker 2: now and expanding was? Is that the land that's that's 1772 01:57:10,480 --> 01:57:14,360 Speaker 2: depicted in the Bible. That's my question. You're saying they're encroaching. 1773 01:57:14,640 --> 01:57:17,920 Speaker 2: I don't get it. Is this landing they're claiming or 1774 01:57:17,960 --> 01:57:20,120 Speaker 2: did they actually take it from the Palestinians. 1775 01:57:21,600 --> 01:57:26,200 Speaker 4: They're actually it's theirs, but they are encroaching on more 1776 01:57:26,280 --> 01:57:32,800 Speaker 4: of it. So that's why they're encroaching, because it cannot 1777 01:57:32,800 --> 01:57:41,360 Speaker 4: be definitively outlined or described from a biblical standpoint, So 1778 01:57:41,600 --> 01:57:47,280 Speaker 4: they continuously encroach upon Palestine and land north of that 1779 01:57:47,440 --> 01:57:52,000 Speaker 4: as well. It's about the people now, they're trying to 1780 01:57:52,040 --> 01:57:58,720 Speaker 4: push back the people more so than occupy land for 1781 01:57:58,840 --> 01:58:01,920 Speaker 4: the purpose of occupy. When someone comes in as an 1782 01:58:01,920 --> 01:58:06,840 Speaker 4: occupier for the land, it's different than to actually come 1783 01:58:06,880 --> 01:58:11,480 Speaker 4: in and to oppress the people and push them back. 1784 01:58:12,440 --> 01:58:16,480 Speaker 4: And so now they're doing the latter. That's their objective, 1785 01:58:16,880 --> 01:58:19,960 Speaker 4: get the land. They want to get rid of the people, 1786 01:58:21,400 --> 01:58:22,680 Speaker 4: and that's what they're doing. 1787 01:58:23,680 --> 01:58:27,440 Speaker 2: Gotcha eight hundred four, five seventy eight six twenty seven 1788 01:58:27,440 --> 01:58:29,600 Speaker 2: minutes away from the top of the Brother Kwame's checking 1789 01:58:29,600 --> 01:58:32,680 Speaker 2: in from North Carolina. It's on line five, Grand Raaching 1790 01:58:32,840 --> 01:58:36,360 Speaker 2: and Brother Kwame, you're on with the Faith Brothers. 1791 01:58:35,800 --> 01:58:39,880 Speaker 12: Grand Rising Brothers. Early in the show, one of the 1792 01:58:39,920 --> 01:58:42,880 Speaker 12: Faith Brothers said that they know God loves and we 1793 01:58:42,960 --> 01:58:45,640 Speaker 12: all know that God did not write the Bible. So 1794 01:58:45,800 --> 01:58:50,160 Speaker 12: without using having faith and believed, tell me how. 1795 01:58:50,040 --> 01:58:54,440 Speaker 4: You know God loves. 1796 01:58:56,720 --> 01:59:04,560 Speaker 2: Brother. I'm sorry believe well, either of you can answer respond, Okay, yeah. 1797 01:59:04,600 --> 01:59:06,800 Speaker 13: Well I was going to just say I believe I'm 1798 01:59:06,840 --> 01:59:10,080 Speaker 13: the one that made the comment about God's God's love. 1799 01:59:11,440 --> 01:59:13,919 Speaker 13: And when you say that God did not write the Bible, 1800 01:59:15,560 --> 01:59:17,640 Speaker 13: that's the stance that you're taking that I don't. I 1801 01:59:17,680 --> 01:59:21,200 Speaker 13: don't agree with. The Bible tells us that all scripture 1802 01:59:21,360 --> 01:59:26,160 Speaker 13: is God breathed, God inspired, God breathed the words, God 1803 01:59:26,280 --> 01:59:29,640 Speaker 13: spoke the words to the authors of the Bible. Historically, 1804 01:59:30,280 --> 01:59:34,880 Speaker 13: those accounts can be validated in so many ways experientially 1805 01:59:34,920 --> 01:59:37,680 Speaker 13: for me and others that it can be validated. So 1806 01:59:38,720 --> 01:59:40,200 Speaker 13: all of that is predication and. 1807 01:59:40,200 --> 01:59:43,280 Speaker 2: Author that Pastor Manning, you're saying he wrote the entire 1808 01:59:43,440 --> 01:59:45,840 Speaker 2: the sixty six books that we now know, or the 1809 01:59:46,040 --> 01:59:50,600 Speaker 2: entire chapters or books of the Bible, and not including 1810 01:59:50,680 --> 01:59:53,440 Speaker 2: the current Bible of many of us use the Old Testament, 1811 01:59:53,520 --> 01:59:56,360 Speaker 2: New Testament, those that were left out. Everything, All of 1812 01:59:56,400 --> 01:59:57,360 Speaker 2: that was written by God. 1813 01:59:58,120 --> 02:00:02,240 Speaker 13: The question was was directed towards the Bible. So I'm 1814 02:00:02,240 --> 02:00:06,320 Speaker 13: speaking specifically of the canonized sixty six books in this 1815 02:00:06,440 --> 02:00:10,840 Speaker 13: in my response right now, because from that from that 1816 02:00:10,960 --> 02:00:15,120 Speaker 13: canon from those books We're told that all scripture was 1817 02:00:15,200 --> 02:00:20,320 Speaker 13: God breaths, inspired by God and written and is useful 1818 02:00:20,520 --> 02:00:24,520 Speaker 13: for our rebuke, our correction, trainings and righteousness. Has a 1819 02:00:24,560 --> 02:00:26,760 Speaker 13: lot of purposes and a lot of uses for it. 1820 02:00:27,200 --> 02:00:29,520 Speaker 13: But it is it is from God. So that's the 1821 02:00:29,560 --> 02:00:33,840 Speaker 13: part that I would probably separate from the caller, that 1822 02:00:34,000 --> 02:00:36,400 Speaker 13: statement that God did not write the Bible. That's all 1823 02:00:36,440 --> 02:00:40,160 Speaker 13: I was saying. There. There's conversation and we've had we've 1824 02:00:40,200 --> 02:00:43,440 Speaker 13: had shows that we've talked about other books, the Apocryphy 1825 02:00:43,440 --> 02:00:46,960 Speaker 13: and other books, the Ethiopian Bible and all of that. 1826 02:00:47,080 --> 02:00:51,400 Speaker 13: I'm talking about specifically the canonized sixty six books. In 1827 02:00:51,440 --> 02:00:53,160 Speaker 13: my response to the caller. 1828 02:00:54,480 --> 02:00:57,880 Speaker 2: All right, come and breaking.

All right, doctor Evans, 1859 02:02:19,480 --> 02:02:21,240 Speaker 2: I know you want to chime in on that question 1860 02:02:21,280 --> 02:02:24,120 Speaker 2: from brother Kwame in North Carolina about who wrote the Bible, 1861 02:02:24,640 --> 02:02:26,320 Speaker 2: and if you can explain to me, how do you 1862 02:02:26,360 --> 02:02:28,800 Speaker 2: know who wrote the Bible? Does he say in the Bible? 1863 02:02:29,120 --> 02:02:31,080 Speaker 2: Does somebody say that God wrote the Bible. I'll let 1864 02:02:31,080 --> 02:02:32,480 Speaker 2: you expand on that for us. 1865 02:02:33,040 --> 02:02:38,760 Speaker 4: Well, let me first say this definitively, it's a misconception 1866 02:02:39,040 --> 02:02:42,839 Speaker 4: that God wrote the Bible. God did not write the Bible. 1867 02:02:43,600 --> 02:02:50,400 Speaker 4: He inspired those or certain of His human creations to 1868 02:02:50,680 --> 02:02:57,600 Speaker 4: write what they have been endowed with. It's as you 1869 02:02:57,680 --> 02:03:01,520 Speaker 4: write from an experience. If you sperience something, you write 1870 02:03:01,720 --> 02:03:05,800 Speaker 4: from it. You've been inspired by that experience to write 1871 02:03:06,400 --> 02:03:10,800 Speaker 4: the things that are surrounding that experience, and that's inspiration. 1872 02:03:11,880 --> 02:03:16,480 Speaker 4: So God inspired those all. That's why it says all 1873 02:03:16,640 --> 02:03:21,880 Speaker 4: scripture is given by inspiration of God. Now, for clarity, 1874 02:03:23,480 --> 02:03:29,600 Speaker 4: religion and the worship of deities existed before the collective 1875 02:03:29,640 --> 02:03:39,200 Speaker 4: writings of the Bible. Ancient Greek, Roman, Egyptian gods and goddesses. 1876 02:03:40,840 --> 02:03:46,320 Speaker 4: All of these and the proof of worship of these 1877 02:03:47,080 --> 02:03:53,920 Speaker 4: are evidence evidence in tombs and various writings. They've been recovered, 1878 02:03:54,080 --> 02:03:59,240 Speaker 4: and it predates the writings of the Bible. So it's 1879 02:03:59,280 --> 02:04:06,360 Speaker 4: not a it's not a point that is saying to 1880 02:04:06,400 --> 02:04:11,800 Speaker 4: see that God wrote the Bible and that everything else 1881 02:04:12,160 --> 02:04:16,880 Speaker 4: is outside of this, that's not a point to bring up. 1882 02:04:16,920 --> 02:04:24,280 Speaker 4: The point is who is God as it relates to 1883 02:04:24,720 --> 02:04:29,080 Speaker 4: these particular writings and these scriptures. That's the point. 1884 02:04:30,520 --> 02:04:34,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, Okay, well right there, sixteen away from 1885 02:04:34,320 --> 02:04:38,240 Speaker 2: the topic, I got a question for Pastor Manning. And 1886 02:04:38,320 --> 02:04:42,200 Speaker 2: Pastor Manning, we established that racism is a sin. How 1887 02:04:42,240 --> 02:04:44,800 Speaker 2: does racism lead to deceive it and disappointment? If it 1888 02:04:44,880 --> 02:04:47,400 Speaker 2: is a sin, you say it is, so, how does 1889 02:04:47,400 --> 02:04:48,840 Speaker 2: it lead it to those things? 1890 02:04:52,920 --> 02:04:57,120 Speaker 13: Racism leads to deception and disappointment because it takes us 1891 02:04:57,160 --> 02:05:00,200 Speaker 13: away again, as I said earlier, from God's rich no 1892 02:05:00,280 --> 02:05:06,680 Speaker 13: intent for mankind. God's plan for humanity has always been community. 1893 02:05:07,400 --> 02:05:11,760 Speaker 13: Even in the Creation account, God says it's not good 1894 02:05:11,800 --> 02:05:14,240 Speaker 13: for man to be alone. Let me create a suitable 1895 02:05:14,320 --> 02:05:19,000 Speaker 13: helper for him. So God created woman, out of man, 1896 02:05:19,880 --> 02:05:24,040 Speaker 13: and they became the two became one flesh. Through this marriage. 1897 02:05:24,240 --> 02:05:26,160 Speaker 13: God is the first father of the bride. I tell 1898 02:05:26,240 --> 02:05:29,160 Speaker 13: young couples. He brought the woman to the man, and 1899 02:05:29,200 --> 02:05:31,000 Speaker 13: the man said, this is bone of my bone and 1900 02:05:31,040 --> 02:05:33,760 Speaker 13: flesh of my flesh. For a lot of reasons, pro creation, 1901 02:05:33,960 --> 02:05:38,680 Speaker 13: to feel and replenish the earth, but also for community together. 1902 02:05:39,640 --> 02:05:43,960 Speaker 13: And from that point, whenever you see God moving amongst humanity, 1903 02:05:44,400 --> 02:05:49,800 Speaker 13: there is always God's intent for us to do things together. 1904 02:05:50,800 --> 02:05:54,080 Speaker 13: And that relationship that we have as humanity that we 1905 02:05:54,160 --> 02:05:57,920 Speaker 13: have to really consider right because the Church is called 1906 02:05:57,920 --> 02:06:00,640 Speaker 13: the body of Christ, and we're told later on in 1907 02:06:00,680 --> 02:06:05,040 Speaker 13: the New Testament that every member is significant, that we're connected. 1908 02:06:05,760 --> 02:06:09,120 Speaker 13: I'm teaching right now leading to Resurrection Sunday, a message 1909 02:06:09,120 --> 02:06:13,960 Speaker 13: about what love is, what love does, and Jesus said 1910 02:06:14,040 --> 02:06:17,600 Speaker 13: that the world will know that we're we're His disciples, 1911 02:06:17,600 --> 02:06:20,640 Speaker 13: his followers by the love we have one to another. 1912 02:06:21,120 --> 02:06:23,560 Speaker 13: One of the challenges as a pastor in talking to 1913 02:06:24,440 --> 02:06:27,000 Speaker 13: a church is that's in the world is helping us 1914 02:06:27,040 --> 02:06:30,800 Speaker 13: to not drink the kool aid of cancel culture and 1915 02:06:30,840 --> 02:06:35,160 Speaker 13: others who who separate us from one another. That's what 1916 02:06:35,280 --> 02:06:36,000 Speaker 13: racism does. 1917 02:06:36,040 --> 02:06:36,440 Speaker 14: As well. 1918 02:06:37,360 --> 02:06:41,000 Speaker 13: But God's plan again has always been community. God's plan 1919 02:06:41,040 --> 02:06:46,000 Speaker 13: has always been connectivity, and racism at his core is 1920 02:06:46,040 --> 02:06:51,720 Speaker 13: designed to divide, to disconnect, to disengage, to dis to 1921 02:06:51,720 --> 02:06:55,520 Speaker 13: to do all of the dishes right, and and God's 1922 02:06:55,560 --> 02:06:59,040 Speaker 13: plan has always been for us to come together that power. 1923 02:06:59,360 --> 02:07:02,280 Speaker 13: You know, it's been said that knowledge is power, and 1924 02:07:02,280 --> 02:07:04,800 Speaker 13: there's a lot of truth to that, But I believe 1925 02:07:04,840 --> 02:07:07,640 Speaker 13: scripturely as well that the place of agreement is a 1926 02:07:07,680 --> 02:07:09,960 Speaker 13: place of power. And we know that as a people. 1927 02:07:10,280 --> 02:07:13,160 Speaker 13: One of the greatest tools to keep us apart is 1928 02:07:13,200 --> 02:07:16,640 Speaker 13: to keep us in a constant state of disagreeing with 1929 02:07:16,720 --> 02:07:19,920 Speaker 13: one another. But the Scripture says we can't even walk 1930 02:07:19,960 --> 02:07:24,000 Speaker 13: together if we don't agree. So I believe that one 1931 02:07:24,040 --> 02:07:27,920 Speaker 13: of the mandates from the Christian Church using the scriptures 1932 02:07:28,520 --> 02:07:30,960 Speaker 13: is to help people understand and to see how we 1933 02:07:31,000 --> 02:07:33,720 Speaker 13: are related, how we are connected, and how we are 1934 02:07:33,760 --> 02:07:34,520 Speaker 13: better together. 1935 02:07:35,640 --> 02:07:37,440 Speaker 2: You know, having said that at thirteen a way for 1936 02:07:37,560 --> 02:07:39,600 Speaker 2: the top of the hour, I got to go to 1937 02:07:39,920 --> 02:07:43,640 Speaker 2: doctor Edmunds, doctor j earlier when you heard what doctor 1938 02:07:43,680 --> 02:07:47,960 Speaker 2: Dove was saying about the cultural domination, and they you mentioned, 1939 02:07:48,120 --> 02:07:50,160 Speaker 2: I think the last call of mention that the religion 1940 02:07:50,280 --> 02:07:53,560 Speaker 2: is used to do that. Having said that, why does 1941 02:07:53,600 --> 02:07:55,800 Speaker 2: the sinate? Because we are already established racism the sin, 1942 02:07:55,880 --> 02:07:57,600 Speaker 2: So why does the sin of rationis not want just 1943 02:07:57,640 --> 02:08:03,280 Speaker 2: to know who we are and where we come from. 1944 02:08:01,600 --> 02:08:05,840 Speaker 4: Because it takes away the freedom that one truly has 1945 02:08:05,960 --> 02:08:09,920 Speaker 4: and don't know that they do have. The greatest challenge 1946 02:08:09,960 --> 02:08:12,879 Speaker 4: in life is discovering who you are. The second greatest 1947 02:08:12,920 --> 02:08:15,600 Speaker 4: is to be happy with what you find. If you're 1948 02:08:15,640 --> 02:08:19,320 Speaker 4: not sure about who you are, how can you be 1949 02:08:19,560 --> 02:08:28,640 Speaker 4: happy with a discovery you're not completely convinced that involves yourself. 1950 02:08:29,400 --> 02:08:35,240 Speaker 4: So there is so much that is writing upon one's 1951 02:08:35,480 --> 02:08:40,400 Speaker 4: independent thought of themselves, an assessment of themselves. If someone 1952 02:08:40,480 --> 02:08:44,440 Speaker 4: says that you're inferior, you have a choice to believe 1953 02:08:44,520 --> 02:08:49,120 Speaker 4: that or not to believe that. All of the evidence 1954 02:08:50,040 --> 02:08:54,720 Speaker 4: that supports that you are not inferior goes back into 1955 02:08:54,840 --> 02:08:59,040 Speaker 4: the history of your culture, and so you go back that, 1956 02:08:59,280 --> 02:09:05,920 Speaker 4: you listen to those who are expounding upon the evolution 1957 02:09:06,200 --> 02:09:13,920 Speaker 4: of that culture, and you embrace that. So one cannot 1958 02:09:14,880 --> 02:09:20,040 Speaker 4: be themselves unless they have confidence in who they truly are. 1959 02:09:20,080 --> 02:09:24,680 Speaker 4: But if they are being told that they are subservient, 1960 02:09:24,800 --> 02:09:28,120 Speaker 4: if they're being told that they're less than. If they're 1961 02:09:28,160 --> 02:09:32,360 Speaker 4: being told that the color of their skin automatically then 1962 02:09:32,440 --> 02:09:36,160 Speaker 4: nototes that they are inferior, and they actually believe that, 1963 02:09:36,840 --> 02:09:42,720 Speaker 4: then they imprison themselves. So it takes away freedom that 1964 02:09:42,840 --> 02:09:46,760 Speaker 4: one would normally have. And with freedom you can do 1965 02:09:47,080 --> 02:09:49,760 Speaker 4: so much. You have the freedom to think, freedom to 1966 02:09:49,920 --> 02:09:58,240 Speaker 4: calculate moves, freedom to expand yourself and to discover things 1967 02:09:58,400 --> 02:10:03,240 Speaker 4: on new horizons that you would not have discovered before 1968 02:10:03,480 --> 02:10:07,560 Speaker 4: because you were not allowed to go into those areas. 1969 02:10:07,640 --> 02:10:15,080 Speaker 4: That's why there is a movement to keep one from advancing. 1970 02:10:15,640 --> 02:10:20,000 Speaker 4: Once you advance into territory that you never gone into before, 1971 02:10:20,200 --> 02:10:22,920 Speaker 4: you thought was taboo for you, but at the same 1972 02:10:23,000 --> 02:10:26,360 Speaker 4: time it was okay for another culture to embrace it. 1973 02:10:27,320 --> 02:10:32,080 Speaker 4: Once you advance into that territory and see and experience 1974 02:10:32,160 --> 02:10:36,040 Speaker 4: the fruits of it, it's an awakening and freedom brings 1975 02:10:36,120 --> 02:10:40,280 Speaker 4: that about. That's one thing I like about your guests 1976 02:10:40,720 --> 02:10:44,240 Speaker 4: who's coming in, William Barbara. I just love what he's 1977 02:10:44,280 --> 02:10:48,000 Speaker 4: doing with the Poor People's Campaign and how he's stretching 1978 02:10:48,120 --> 02:10:52,520 Speaker 4: out an expanding territory of freedom in those things which 1979 02:10:52,960 --> 02:10:59,040 Speaker 4: are necessary for one to be independently free of thought. 1980 02:10:59,480 --> 02:11:04,040 Speaker 4: When someone and categorize you, they imprison you. You know, 1981 02:11:04,200 --> 02:11:08,280 Speaker 4: if they imprison your mind, they have imprisoned you. And 1982 02:11:08,360 --> 02:11:11,480 Speaker 4: if someone comes along and say this is not true, 1983 02:11:12,400 --> 02:11:15,640 Speaker 4: and the evidence shows that it's not true, it sets 1984 02:11:15,680 --> 02:11:18,800 Speaker 4: you free as a human being, as a person, as 1985 02:11:18,840 --> 02:11:24,760 Speaker 4: a spirit, as a soul, as a human creation of God. 1986 02:11:25,280 --> 02:11:27,880 Speaker 2: Right dying away from the top of I'm picking up 1987 02:11:27,880 --> 02:11:30,760 Speaker 2: on that what he just said, Pastor Manic, because you know, 1988 02:11:30,840 --> 02:11:33,760 Speaker 2: we talked about the sin of racism. We talked about 1989 02:11:34,120 --> 02:11:36,240 Speaker 2: are there any benefits in the sin off rations? Because 1990 02:11:36,320 --> 02:11:39,160 Speaker 2: racism separates us and divides us. Is there any benefits 1991 02:11:39,480 --> 02:11:41,640 Speaker 2: on either side people who are saying it, the people 1992 02:11:41,640 --> 02:11:45,720 Speaker 2: who are believing it from the getting involved in racism 1993 02:11:46,040 --> 02:11:46,680 Speaker 2: in the church. 1994 02:11:48,080 --> 02:11:50,160 Speaker 13: Yeah, I don't know if I would say there's any 1995 02:11:50,200 --> 02:11:53,360 Speaker 13: benefits to the sin of racism. I think one of 1996 02:11:53,400 --> 02:11:56,400 Speaker 13: the things that we can benefit from is that it 1997 02:11:56,440 --> 02:12:00,800 Speaker 13: allows us to what I say, and a message about 1998 02:12:00,880 --> 02:12:04,920 Speaker 13: crisis and conflict. It allows us to confirm character. So 1999 02:12:05,800 --> 02:12:08,240 Speaker 13: because of the sin of racism and what it does 2000 02:12:08,320 --> 02:12:12,200 Speaker 13: and how it manifests itself, we begin to see who's 2001 02:12:12,240 --> 02:12:15,160 Speaker 13: who right, even when it comes to the Christian Church 2002 02:12:15,200 --> 02:12:20,120 Speaker 13: and those who who would call themselves Christians. They're even 2003 02:12:20,160 --> 02:12:24,040 Speaker 13: those outside of the church who recognize, in the words 2004 02:12:24,040 --> 02:12:27,920 Speaker 13: of that great great prophet Keith, sweat something something something, 2005 02:12:28,000 --> 02:12:30,960 Speaker 13: something just ain't right, you know. So when we begin 2006 02:12:31,000 --> 02:12:38,080 Speaker 13: to hear how so called believers are attempting to destroy 2007 02:12:38,280 --> 02:12:43,000 Speaker 13: and to separate people, even with the movement with ice 2008 02:12:43,040 --> 02:12:46,880 Speaker 13: and all of these other headlining news stories that are 2009 02:12:46,920 --> 02:12:49,840 Speaker 13: impacting our country in a terrible way, we begin to 2010 02:12:49,840 --> 02:12:51,440 Speaker 13: see who's who. So I don't know if it's I 2011 02:12:51,440 --> 02:12:53,760 Speaker 13: would call it a benefit, but I do think it 2012 02:12:53,840 --> 02:12:56,880 Speaker 13: is a clarifier and helping us to understand, you know, 2013 02:12:58,200 --> 02:13:01,680 Speaker 13: what's writing what's not right. If the benefit is that, 2014 02:13:01,760 --> 02:13:04,360 Speaker 13: and then the other thing that we've seen over time, 2015 02:13:04,440 --> 02:13:08,720 Speaker 13: especially as African Americans, it has been a rallying call 2016 02:13:08,840 --> 02:13:12,360 Speaker 13: and cry for us to come together and to be 2017 02:13:12,360 --> 02:13:14,840 Speaker 13: be the change instead of waiting for the change. I 2018 02:13:14,880 --> 02:13:17,160 Speaker 13: believe I just got in on the last part of 2019 02:13:17,200 --> 02:13:20,480 Speaker 13: the show right before ours, but I think that's what 2020 02:13:20,520 --> 02:13:23,760 Speaker 13: I was hearing as well from from your from those 2021 02:13:23,800 --> 02:13:26,200 Speaker 13: experts that were on your call, that we've got to 2022 02:13:26,200 --> 02:13:28,760 Speaker 13: be the change. We we can't just talk about it, 2023 02:13:28,760 --> 02:13:31,000 Speaker 13: We've got to be about it. And I think what 2024 02:13:31,200 --> 02:13:35,720 Speaker 13: when When racism is active in any community, it also 2025 02:13:36,320 --> 02:13:39,560 Speaker 13: creates a call from others and a desire to want 2026 02:13:39,600 --> 02:13:42,040 Speaker 13: to do things the right way and to come together 2027 02:13:43,080 --> 02:13:46,400 Speaker 13: and to overcome. The Bible says, don't be don't be 2028 02:13:46,800 --> 02:13:50,520 Speaker 13: overcome with evil, but overcome evil with good. And I 2029 02:13:50,520 --> 02:13:53,640 Speaker 13: believe that's our mandate, that's that's our privilege, and it's 2030 02:13:53,640 --> 02:13:54,720 Speaker 13: our responsibility. 2031 02:13:55,920 --> 02:13:58,360 Speaker 2: Got you to wait for that topic? Charlsea checking in 2032 02:13:58,400 --> 02:14:01,400 Speaker 2: from Baltimore's Online One, Charles grand Rising, you have a 2033 02:14:01,480 --> 02:14:02,600 Speaker 2: question for the Faith Brothers. 2034 02:14:04,160 --> 02:14:06,240 Speaker 16: Oh yeah, I want to ask a question. 2035 02:14:09,120 --> 02:14:11,240 Speaker 2: Go ahead, Oh. 2036 02:14:11,080 --> 02:14:14,680 Speaker 16: Okay, yeah. I wanted to know they were talking about 2037 02:14:14,760 --> 02:14:19,320 Speaker 16: God's story and to me, God's story is an idea 2038 02:14:19,960 --> 02:14:24,400 Speaker 16: not an actual physical story. You know, God's story was 2039 02:14:24,440 --> 02:14:31,320 Speaker 16: an idea and it was a dictation that they actually did. 2040 02:14:31,840 --> 02:14:35,839 Speaker 16: You know, you have to start with a story first 2041 02:14:35,920 --> 02:14:39,400 Speaker 16: before you can actually write something down. So God had 2042 02:14:39,400 --> 02:14:46,080 Speaker 16: the idea and then they wrote down his idea after God. 2043 02:14:46,160 --> 02:14:49,080 Speaker 2: All right, let's get my chance to respond. Hey, Charles, 2044 02:14:49,080 --> 02:14:51,720 Speaker 2: I think you of that question Faith Brothers. 2045 02:14:52,480 --> 02:14:56,560 Speaker 4: I've never heard it quite put that way, But what 2046 02:14:56,640 --> 02:15:02,160 Speaker 4: are you saying has some validity to it? H God 2047 02:15:02,840 --> 02:15:07,760 Speaker 4: created the heavens and the earth. So he had an idea, 2048 02:15:07,920 --> 02:15:12,240 Speaker 4: it was written on the canvas of his imagination, and 2049 02:15:12,360 --> 02:15:16,440 Speaker 4: he spoke it and it came into existence. And so 2050 02:15:16,520 --> 02:15:25,920 Speaker 4: he prompted people similarly to actually embrace certain things within 2051 02:15:26,920 --> 02:15:33,000 Speaker 4: his sphere by prompting them through his inspiration. So I've 2052 02:15:33,000 --> 02:15:35,920 Speaker 4: never heard it quite put that way, but there it's 2053 02:15:36,360 --> 02:15:41,640 Speaker 4: it's it's viable what he's saying, and it has some. 2054 02:15:43,120 --> 02:15:46,480 Speaker 2: Truths in it all five away from the top of 2055 02:15:46,680 --> 02:15:50,160 Speaker 2: Derek's calling us from Colorado.

Derek, 2075 02:16:41,440 --> 02:16:44,200 Speaker 2: you have question or comment for the Faith Brothers. 2076 02:16:45,040 --> 02:16:49,280 Speaker 17: Yes, I understand that they were talking about racism, but 2077 02:16:49,360 --> 02:16:54,680 Speaker 17: I'm thinking about when Moses, Moses, I think his brother 2078 02:16:54,760 --> 02:16:59,000 Speaker 17: got in trouble with the open lady and because they 2079 02:16:59,000 --> 02:17:02,800 Speaker 17: said she was a she was Derek or something like that. 2080 02:17:03,520 --> 02:17:07,199 Speaker 17: And God did not like any racism at all. And 2081 02:17:07,600 --> 02:17:11,800 Speaker 17: that's dealing with the racism, did you guys, you're familiar. 2082 02:17:11,440 --> 02:17:18,200 Speaker 4: With that, right? Absolutely? Absolutely. There was a There was 2083 02:17:18,280 --> 02:17:24,400 Speaker 4: contention between Aaron, who was the brother of Moses, concerning 2084 02:17:25,200 --> 02:17:30,120 Speaker 4: the wife that Moses had. She was an African, but 2085 02:17:30,480 --> 02:17:38,440 Speaker 4: that wasn't the point. It was basically a forbidden tribe 2086 02:17:39,160 --> 02:17:46,600 Speaker 4: that should not be intertwined, and that was the problem 2087 02:17:46,680 --> 02:17:52,160 Speaker 4: that Aaron had and also moses sister Miriam, and God 2088 02:17:52,240 --> 02:17:54,760 Speaker 4: rebuked her for that as a matter of fact, gave 2089 02:17:54,800 --> 02:18:00,000 Speaker 4: her temporarily the disease of leprosy for making that pronouncement. 2090 02:18:00,720 --> 02:18:05,039 Speaker 4: God has always been against separation as it relates to 2091 02:18:05,360 --> 02:18:12,080 Speaker 4: one preferring another. There is no respect of persons as 2092 02:18:12,120 --> 02:18:15,240 Speaker 4: it relates to us as being human beings. We have 2093 02:18:15,320 --> 02:18:18,440 Speaker 4: to look at the similarities that we have, and when 2094 02:18:18,440 --> 02:18:21,680 Speaker 4: you take this flesh off, that's who we really are. 2095 02:18:22,280 --> 02:18:27,520 Speaker 4: Those are where the similarities are, even so much that 2096 02:18:27,600 --> 02:18:31,280 Speaker 4: God manifested himself in the flesh for that purpose, to 2097 02:18:31,520 --> 02:18:36,920 Speaker 4: do away with that and to bring a union between 2098 02:18:37,080 --> 02:18:41,680 Speaker 4: his human creations. This is what the message of the 2099 02:18:41,720 --> 02:18:47,120 Speaker 4: Gospel is about. The message of salvation is about. It 2100 02:18:48,040 --> 02:18:52,480 Speaker 4: is about God unifying his human creation and reconciling them 2101 02:18:52,520 --> 02:18:57,160 Speaker 4: back to himself. That's why he manifested himself in the flesh, 2102 02:18:57,760 --> 02:19:00,960 Speaker 4: so that he would let and allow rather his human 2103 02:19:01,000 --> 02:19:05,640 Speaker 4: creation to know that He is empathetic. He understands what 2104 02:19:05,800 --> 02:19:11,560 Speaker 4: they're going through. But yet he superceedes that which is 2105 02:19:11,680 --> 02:19:15,360 Speaker 4: within the natural, and it's about that which is not 2106 02:19:15,520 --> 02:19:20,000 Speaker 4: in the natural. That's why when he was crucified, he died, 2107 02:19:20,120 --> 02:19:23,119 Speaker 4: he was buried. On the third day, he arose from 2108 02:19:23,120 --> 02:19:27,720 Speaker 4: the grave. He conquered death and he said, whoever believes 2109 02:19:27,720 --> 02:19:30,720 Speaker 4: in this shall be saved. Now, I think the word 2110 02:19:31,000 --> 02:19:36,280 Speaker 4: saved has a lot to do with God's trumping. It 2111 02:19:36,320 --> 02:19:40,160 Speaker 4: has to do with one asking the question save from what. 2112 02:19:40,400 --> 02:19:43,080 Speaker 4: All of those who are listening now, I want you 2113 02:19:43,120 --> 02:19:48,320 Speaker 4: to understand this salvation. It has to do with being 2114 02:19:48,520 --> 02:19:52,760 Speaker 4: saved from something, what it was saved from, saved from 2115 02:19:52,840 --> 02:19:56,520 Speaker 4: the wrath of God, because there is a closure that 2116 02:19:56,600 --> 02:19:59,240 Speaker 4: we're in now, We're in the end time, We're in 2117 02:19:59,280 --> 02:20:02,879 Speaker 4: a period of time that there is a culmination, and 2118 02:20:02,920 --> 02:20:08,520 Speaker 4: so no one forces anyone to receive the gift of God, 2119 02:20:09,160 --> 02:20:13,400 Speaker 4: no one forces anyone to receive forgiveness of sins and 2120 02:20:13,520 --> 02:20:18,280 Speaker 4: eternal life by just believing that this is what He did. 2121 02:20:18,480 --> 02:20:20,840 Speaker 4: And when we look at it from a standpoint that 2122 02:20:20,959 --> 02:20:25,720 Speaker 4: this is salvation within itself, then we come to the 2123 02:20:25,800 --> 02:20:30,560 Speaker 4: conclusion once we truly hear the gospel, not the right 2124 02:20:31,240 --> 02:20:39,320 Speaker 4: right wing pumulgation of separatism, not that not religion. Religion 2125 02:20:39,400 --> 02:20:44,240 Speaker 4: is man's effort to reach God. Christianity is God's attempt 2126 02:20:44,280 --> 02:20:48,040 Speaker 4: to reach man through Christ. When we hear the gospel, 2127 02:20:48,160 --> 02:20:54,600 Speaker 4: meaning that when we hear that which truly happened beyond religion, 2128 02:20:55,520 --> 02:21:00,520 Speaker 4: then it's upon us to receive that once we see 2129 02:21:00,680 --> 02:21:03,760 Speaker 4: that there is a promise. That promise is I give 2130 02:21:03,800 --> 02:21:06,920 Speaker 4: you forgiveness of seance. I know you're making mistakes as 2131 02:21:07,080 --> 02:21:12,080 Speaker 4: human creation, and moreover, I give you eternal life. 2132 02:21:12,920 --> 02:21:16,040 Speaker 2: Right now, we're gonna end.

You know we all 2151 02:22:19,280 --> 02:22:23,280 Speaker 4: are in this work. I'm glad you all talked about 2152 02:22:23,879 --> 02:22:27,080 Speaker 4: salvation because you know, the slave masters used to think 2153 02:22:27,640 --> 02:22:31,000 Speaker 4: that salvation was just saying I love Jesus all Sunday, 2154 02:22:31,520 --> 02:22:35,360 Speaker 4: but then brutalizing people and slavery on Monday. And the 2155 02:22:35,520 --> 02:22:40,520 Speaker 4: old folk the slaves used to say Heaven, Heaven, everybody 2156 02:22:40,560 --> 02:22:45,280 Speaker 4: talking about heaven and going there, because they knew that 2157 02:22:45,400 --> 02:22:51,600 Speaker 4: a salvation that claims a experience of God but then 2158 02:22:51,840 --> 02:22:57,680 Speaker 4: renders you mute on the great issues of injustice. Whatever 2159 02:22:57,720 --> 02:23:01,600 Speaker 4: you call it, it's suspect in terms of being a 2160 02:23:01,640 --> 02:23:05,600 Speaker 4: true spiritual transformation. So thank you for that conversation you 2161 02:23:05,800 --> 02:23:06,119 Speaker 4: just had. 2162 02:23:07,240 --> 02:23:10,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, having said that, though you've heard that, was it 2163 02:23:10,440 --> 02:23:13,720 Speaker 2: Bishop Carlton, He said that everybody's going to heaven. Do 2164 02:23:13,760 --> 02:23:15,680 Speaker 2: you agree with this assessment. I'm sure you heard of 2165 02:23:15,720 --> 02:23:16,560 Speaker 2: that back in the day. 2166 02:23:17,879 --> 02:23:20,480 Speaker 4: Well, that's not exactly what Carlton was saying, everybody going 2167 02:23:20,520 --> 02:23:23,360 Speaker 4: to heaven when he was making that, when I met him, 2168 02:23:23,440 --> 02:23:25,760 Speaker 4: knew him. He's a dear friend of mine. He was 2169 02:23:25,800 --> 02:23:30,000 Speaker 4: struggling with the way in which Western society and did 2170 02:23:29,959 --> 02:23:34,720 Speaker 4: a lot and even the Western of the Church had 2171 02:23:34,840 --> 02:23:38,840 Speaker 4: had made this issue that unless you knew Jesus and 2172 02:23:39,800 --> 02:23:44,840 Speaker 4: confessed a certain way, that uh, you know, you were 2173 02:23:44,879 --> 02:23:47,640 Speaker 4: going to hell. And so what he was saying was 2174 02:23:48,200 --> 02:23:51,560 Speaker 4: he was struggling with So you're saying a child that 2175 02:23:52,080 --> 02:23:56,640 Speaker 4: dies in a country because of poverty and famine is 2176 02:23:56,720 --> 02:23:58,800 Speaker 4: gonna then turn around the God he said he was 2177 02:23:58,840 --> 02:24:01,240 Speaker 4: going to put that child in hell because they didn't 2178 02:24:01,280 --> 02:24:05,160 Speaker 4: come down an hour and say I give Christ my life. 2179 02:24:05,720 --> 02:24:08,520 Speaker 4: He was struggling with the great struggle. What does it 2180 02:24:08,640 --> 02:24:14,959 Speaker 4: mean if salvation is not it's free, and if it 2181 02:24:15,000 --> 02:24:18,920 Speaker 4: comes through God's actions and not ours, which is what 2182 02:24:18,959 --> 02:24:23,080 Speaker 4: we teach and believe, then how is it that we 2183 02:24:24,120 --> 02:24:28,800 Speaker 4: take up the notion of assigning anyone to hell. Actually 2184 02:24:29,080 --> 02:24:32,039 Speaker 4: he wasn't the first one else that Jesus said that 2185 02:24:32,400 --> 02:24:35,320 Speaker 4: let the wheat and the tag row together, and I'll 2186 02:24:35,360 --> 02:24:38,640 Speaker 4: separate what Jesus called us to When you look at 2187 02:24:38,680 --> 02:24:42,199 Speaker 4: jesus first simon and his last simmon, he never called 2188 02:24:42,240 --> 02:24:45,000 Speaker 4: us to go around trying to figure out who's going 2189 02:24:45,040 --> 02:24:47,879 Speaker 4: to an eternal this or that. He said, the spirit 2190 02:24:47,920 --> 02:24:50,440 Speaker 4: of the laws upon me to preach good news to 2191 02:24:50,520 --> 02:24:53,160 Speaker 4: the poor, to cover the sight to blind, healing to 2192 02:24:53,200 --> 02:24:56,520 Speaker 4: the broken heart, so forth, and so on his last Simon, 2193 02:24:56,600 --> 02:24:58,879 Speaker 4: he said he was on the way to the cross, 2194 02:24:59,200 --> 02:25:04,200 Speaker 4: and he said, nations will be judged by how we 2195 02:25:04,760 --> 02:25:07,320 Speaker 4: treat the least of these. It's amazing to me how 2196 02:25:07,320 --> 02:25:10,120 Speaker 4: many people want to run past all of that and 2197 02:25:10,160 --> 02:25:15,280 Speaker 4: get into a conversation about who they can know now 2198 02:25:15,840 --> 02:25:19,440 Speaker 4: and say is going to heaven or hell. And it 2199 02:25:19,480 --> 02:25:24,600 Speaker 4: goes back again to what Frederick Douglas said about slave 2200 02:25:24,640 --> 02:25:28,440 Speaker 4: master religion versus the Christians of christ. There were slave 2201 02:25:28,560 --> 02:25:33,360 Speaker 4: masters who literally believed and said that the slaves were heathen, 2202 02:25:34,160 --> 02:25:36,879 Speaker 4: that black skin was a sign of the permanency of 2203 02:25:36,920 --> 02:25:41,640 Speaker 4: the demonic, and they were going to hell. The best 2204 02:25:41,640 --> 02:25:43,760 Speaker 4: thing they could do is be good service now. But 2205 02:25:43,840 --> 02:25:47,760 Speaker 4: they were predestined for hell. And yet the slave master 2206 02:25:48,040 --> 02:25:50,800 Speaker 4: just because he went in on Sunday and said I 2207 02:25:50,920 --> 02:25:57,440 Speaker 4: believe in Jesus, that that meant he was exonerated of 2208 02:25:57,560 --> 02:26:01,959 Speaker 4: all of the evils towards YU managed And that has 2209 02:26:02,000 --> 02:26:05,720 Speaker 4: been a struggle in how we understand and talk about theology. 2210 02:26:06,320 --> 02:26:10,680 Speaker 4: What I love about Jesus when I look at Jesus. 2211 02:26:11,160 --> 02:26:16,320 Speaker 4: Every time somebody said somebody couldn't receive something. You look 2212 02:26:16,360 --> 02:26:20,520 Speaker 4: into scriptures and there was a group of folks and 2213 02:26:20,560 --> 02:26:23,640 Speaker 4: his disciples wanted to run down Jesus said, listen, I 2214 02:26:23,680 --> 02:26:27,040 Speaker 4: have other than a dollar that's sold. Disciples didn't want 2215 02:26:27,080 --> 02:26:30,119 Speaker 4: to accept some children one day, and Jesus said, suffer 2216 02:26:30,200 --> 02:26:33,440 Speaker 4: the little children, let them come. Another group wanted to 2217 02:26:33,680 --> 02:26:37,959 Speaker 4: crushed the stone a woman they said were called in adulty, 2218 02:26:38,400 --> 02:26:40,440 Speaker 4: Jesus wrote in the Saying, And when he stood up, 2219 02:26:40,560 --> 02:26:44,920 Speaker 4: everybody that accused he was gone. On the cross he sold. 2220 02:26:45,320 --> 02:26:50,440 Speaker 4: He told a thief what we would call people that 2221 02:26:50,480 --> 02:26:53,880 Speaker 4: actually was a protester. He was somebody who was abeiling 2222 02:26:53,920 --> 02:26:57,440 Speaker 4: age's wrong. This day you'll be in paradise with me. 2223 02:26:58,120 --> 02:27:02,120 Speaker 4: You know, Grace is so amazing that I've decided to 2224 02:27:02,200 --> 02:27:05,800 Speaker 4: preach it, but never to try to fully understanding, because 2225 02:27:05,800 --> 02:27:08,120 Speaker 4: if I can ever fully understand it, then I can 2226 02:27:08,240 --> 02:27:12,760 Speaker 4: comprehend knowledge that's too wonderful for me. What I do 2227 02:27:13,000 --> 02:27:18,760 Speaker 4: know is that to be quote unquote changed by God 2228 02:27:19,520 --> 02:27:23,760 Speaker 4: and changed by the Spirit of God produces what we 2229 02:27:23,920 --> 02:27:27,120 Speaker 4: call a quarrel with the world, a qual with the 2230 02:27:27,240 --> 02:27:32,640 Speaker 4: world's injustices, a quaal with the world's meanness. And so 2231 02:27:32,800 --> 02:27:36,840 Speaker 4: many people that I've seen are so worried about heaven 2232 02:27:36,959 --> 02:27:40,120 Speaker 4: over yonder, But they're not worried about folks having some 2233 02:27:40,240 --> 02:27:43,920 Speaker 4: food over here and some clothes over here, and some 2234 02:27:44,280 --> 02:27:47,800 Speaker 4: justice over here, which is what we are really supposed 2235 02:27:47,840 --> 02:27:51,160 Speaker 4: to be doing, because none of us know the day 2236 02:27:51,240 --> 02:27:53,800 Speaker 4: to ours, which are saying, so a man shall uppear. 2237 02:27:54,440 --> 02:27:57,520 Speaker 4: But what we should be doing is engaging in the 2238 02:27:57,640 --> 02:28:00,360 Speaker 4: works of grace and the works of love, and the 2239 02:28:00,440 --> 02:28:02,840 Speaker 4: works of faith and the works of justice. 2240 02:28:04,360 --> 02:28:06,800 Speaker 2: All right, family, the voice he's just hearing this Reverend 2241 02:28:06,840 --> 02:28:10,160 Speaker 2: doctor William Barbie, and not only is a minister, it's 2242 02:28:10,200 --> 02:28:13,120 Speaker 2: also a social activist. And doctor Barbara, you're going to 2243 02:28:13,160 --> 02:28:15,560 Speaker 2: speak before the US Supreme Court. Can you tell us 2244 02:28:15,600 --> 02:28:17,200 Speaker 2: what that presentation is going to be about. 2245 02:28:18,280 --> 02:28:20,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, and Carl, I like what you said that, because 2246 02:28:20,600 --> 02:28:24,520 Speaker 4: I want to say also, in other words, how can 2247 02:28:24,600 --> 02:28:27,040 Speaker 4: I be a minister not be a social acturate? What 2248 02:28:27,640 --> 02:28:28,160 Speaker 4: would that be? 2249 02:28:29,320 --> 02:28:29,480 Speaker 1: You know? 2250 02:28:29,760 --> 02:28:33,119 Speaker 4: That's the very thing Jesus railed again, he said, he said, 2251 02:28:33,280 --> 02:28:36,960 Speaker 4: he said to the pharasees one time, you time, even 2252 02:28:37,000 --> 02:28:40,400 Speaker 4: a tea leaf, go through all of this religious ritual, 2253 02:28:40,520 --> 02:28:44,119 Speaker 4: but you leave undone the wavier matters of the law. 2254 02:28:44,240 --> 02:28:47,160 Speaker 4: And the first thing he said was justice. So here 2255 02:28:47,240 --> 02:28:50,320 Speaker 4: we are in front of Supreme Court this morning, and 2256 02:28:50,440 --> 02:28:53,280 Speaker 4: we've got two unholy things going on. And I think 2257 02:28:53,360 --> 02:28:57,360 Speaker 4: every clergy person in this cunjobity, if you're whatever your 2258 02:28:57,400 --> 02:29:00,000 Speaker 4: faith tradition, should be speaking out. We have an unhold. 2259 02:29:00,160 --> 02:29:04,280 Speaker 4: The war is unholy, unholy war choice going on. It's 2260 02:29:04,360 --> 02:29:08,039 Speaker 4: costing us a million dollars a minute, a million dollars 2261 02:29:08,080 --> 02:29:12,200 Speaker 4: a minute, and innocent people are killed. Babies, children are 2262 02:29:12,200 --> 02:29:15,039 Speaker 4: being killed, girls in a school, and we don't even 2263 02:29:15,120 --> 02:29:20,720 Speaker 4: know how many innocent people by a president who has 2264 02:29:20,800 --> 02:29:25,360 Speaker 4: a God complex. It's really a war on divinity. He 2265 02:29:25,480 --> 02:29:28,480 Speaker 4: has an Emperor of God complex. He he wants to 2266 02:29:28,560 --> 02:29:31,160 Speaker 4: say he's the one to decide who lives, who dies, 2267 02:29:31,840 --> 02:29:35,160 Speaker 4: and there's a serious war on divinity. He's in a 2268 02:29:35,360 --> 02:29:38,600 Speaker 4: battle with you know, because the ancient Caesars and Empests, 2269 02:29:38,959 --> 02:29:41,880 Speaker 4: they wanted to be called the sons of God. And 2270 02:29:41,959 --> 02:29:45,039 Speaker 4: if you listen to Trump's rhetoric and his fallow us, 2271 02:29:45,520 --> 02:29:48,120 Speaker 4: they believe the world and began to He came where 2272 02:29:48,440 --> 02:29:51,440 Speaker 4: everything that's good came after him, everything that's great came 2273 02:29:51,520 --> 02:29:54,640 Speaker 4: after him. It's a serious war on divinity. So that's 2274 02:29:54,640 --> 02:29:59,360 Speaker 4: the one. Then secondly, we have him today, got his 2275 02:29:59,560 --> 02:30:06,720 Speaker 4: lawyers arguing to the end birthright, our citizenship. If you 2276 02:30:07,120 --> 02:30:11,680 Speaker 4: it was the fourteenth Amendment founded to pass the correct 2277 02:30:11,720 --> 02:30:16,160 Speaker 4: the evils of slavery, and we give all the children 2278 02:30:16,240 --> 02:30:19,600 Speaker 4: of the slave citizenship. And now he wants to argue 2279 02:30:20,280 --> 02:30:27,280 Speaker 4: that it needs to be overturned. They're using Consederate scholars 2280 02:30:27,879 --> 02:30:30,800 Speaker 4: in their argument this week. Your listeners should know this. 2281 02:30:32,360 --> 02:30:37,520 Speaker 4: If they're successful, it said, though Trump again said he 2282 02:30:37,640 --> 02:30:41,400 Speaker 4: wants to even determine who's a citizen. And if they 2283 02:30:41,440 --> 02:30:46,200 Speaker 4: would be successful, they would mean millions of children. We'd 2284 02:30:46,240 --> 02:30:50,040 Speaker 4: go from being citizens to being being eligible for being 2285 02:30:50,360 --> 02:30:55,920 Speaker 4: arrested and departed. It is demented what we see going on. 2286 02:30:56,840 --> 02:31:00,840 Speaker 4: In fact, on the Supreme Court building across the top, 2287 02:31:01,600 --> 02:31:05,880 Speaker 4: it says equal protection under the law. If this, if 2288 02:31:05,920 --> 02:31:09,760 Speaker 4: they pass and rule in Trump Trump's direction, We're gonna 2289 02:31:09,760 --> 02:31:12,240 Speaker 4: have to take that off the Supreme Court. In fact, 2290 02:31:12,280 --> 02:31:14,320 Speaker 4: we don't all even need to call it Supreme Court. 2291 02:31:14,400 --> 02:31:17,680 Speaker 4: We need to call it the Trump Court or Injustice 2292 02:31:17,760 --> 02:31:20,200 Speaker 4: Court or something. But this is where we are in 2293 02:31:20,280 --> 02:31:23,040 Speaker 4: this country right now, my friends. Uh, and that's why 2294 02:31:23,080 --> 02:31:28,160 Speaker 4: I'm here today to speak and to challenge with other clergy. Uh, 2295 02:31:29,160 --> 02:31:32,400 Speaker 4: this this evil, you know, Isaiah ten says, we're one 2296 02:31:32,480 --> 02:31:36,080 Speaker 4: of those who legislate evil and rob the children of 2297 02:31:36,240 --> 02:31:40,039 Speaker 4: their rights, children of their rights of poor and Jesus 2298 02:31:40,040 --> 02:31:42,400 Speaker 4: said it would be better to tie millstone around your 2299 02:31:42,520 --> 02:31:44,880 Speaker 4: neck than to offend one of the little ones that 2300 02:31:45,080 --> 02:31:49,039 Speaker 4: they are literally going to court to try to take 2301 02:31:49,640 --> 02:31:55,240 Speaker 4: and undermine and remove verse rights citizenship and say children 2302 02:31:55,360 --> 02:31:59,880 Speaker 4: born here don't have that fundamental right. This is this, 2303 02:32:00,959 --> 02:32:03,040 Speaker 4: and it's been the law for one hundred and fifty 2304 02:32:03,120 --> 02:32:08,320 Speaker 4: eight years, equal protection under the law. And it is 2305 02:32:08,400 --> 02:32:11,920 Speaker 4: a sin. It's a sin against children, it's a sin 2306 02:32:12,000 --> 02:32:16,360 Speaker 4: against God to suggest that these children that are born 2307 02:32:17,080 --> 02:32:20,920 Speaker 4: don't have the basic rights of life, liberty, and the 2308 02:32:21,000 --> 02:32:25,440 Speaker 4: pursuit of happiness. That's why this law was written. It 2309 02:32:25,640 --> 02:32:29,840 Speaker 4: was written to correct the sin of slavery, and it 2310 02:32:30,040 --> 02:32:36,400 Speaker 4: protects babies from being becoming some kind of sub humans. 2311 02:32:37,200 --> 02:32:40,920 Speaker 4: And it's marl as sick. I believe it's demented. It's 2312 02:32:41,000 --> 02:32:44,760 Speaker 4: certainly racist. And the very ones that are promoting it, 2313 02:32:45,520 --> 02:32:48,800 Speaker 4: they have names like Trump and Miller, and for them 2314 02:32:48,879 --> 02:32:51,920 Speaker 4: to claim they deserve to be and someone else should 2315 02:32:51,959 --> 02:32:54,520 Speaker 4: be out, they aren't even know those names. Tell you 2316 02:32:55,040 --> 02:32:58,880 Speaker 4: they want the first people here. They want apaches or 2317 02:32:58,959 --> 02:33:02,440 Speaker 4: Cherokee or touch r Uh. They won't even to the 2318 02:33:02,680 --> 02:33:06,360 Speaker 4: very rules that they're pushing now a few years ago, 2319 02:33:07,680 --> 02:33:10,800 Speaker 4: essentially ago, I mean, excuse me, one hundred years ago. 2320 02:33:11,200 --> 02:33:14,080 Speaker 4: Their own parents wouldn't be allowed. And based on the 2321 02:33:14,160 --> 02:33:17,480 Speaker 4: rules they want now, Milaarnia Trump was not even a 2322 02:33:17,640 --> 02:33:23,360 Speaker 4: citizen when she had Trump's son and he benefited from 2323 02:33:23,440 --> 02:33:27,360 Speaker 4: the fourteenth A member. I mean, this is called it is. 2324 02:33:27,560 --> 02:33:30,280 Speaker 4: It is very serious what's going on. And they want 2325 02:33:30,320 --> 02:33:35,920 Speaker 4: to use this to basically pick and choose which children, 2326 02:33:36,760 --> 02:33:41,920 Speaker 4: which babies, uh get equal protection under the law in 2327 02:33:42,080 --> 02:33:44,440 Speaker 4: the United States and the four hold. 2328 02:33:44,480 --> 02:33:46,680 Speaker 2: I thought, right there, doctor Barbara, We're got to step 2329 02:33:46,680 --> 02:33:48,280 Speaker 2: aside for a few months and we come back.

He's a social actress as well as 2346 02:34:28,600 --> 02:34:30,800 Speaker 2: a Christian minister, so let's get that out of the way. 2347 02:34:31,000 --> 02:34:33,400 Speaker 2: And he also conducts what he calls moral mondays. We're 2348 02:34:33,400 --> 02:34:35,160 Speaker 2: going to talk about that as well. He's been doing 2349 02:34:35,200 --> 02:34:37,000 Speaker 2: this for quite some time, but today is a very 2350 02:34:37,040 --> 02:34:39,320 Speaker 2: special day because today he's going to be before the 2351 02:34:39,400 --> 02:34:44,280 Speaker 2: Supreme Court arguing about the birthright citizenship. And Dr Barbras 2352 02:34:44,360 --> 02:34:47,360 Speaker 2: told you before the break that some of our scholars 2353 02:34:47,400 --> 02:34:48,800 Speaker 2: say that would impact us. 2354 02:34:50,760 --> 02:34:54,080 Speaker 4: Well, it will. This is one hundreds of day years 2355 02:34:54,120 --> 02:35:00,800 Speaker 4: of settle law extremists Republicans. I have to say it 2356 02:35:00,879 --> 02:35:03,760 Speaker 4: that way because that's the true since nineteen ninety one, 2357 02:35:04,200 --> 02:35:08,800 Speaker 4: and somebody has introduced legislation every year to overturn the 2358 02:35:08,920 --> 02:35:13,720 Speaker 4: Fourteenth Amendment and the citizen, birth rights, citizenship clause, equal 2359 02:35:13,720 --> 02:35:16,200 Speaker 4: protection clause, and they've never been able to get a 2360 02:35:16,320 --> 02:35:20,280 Speaker 4: vote on it in the floor. Trump has been successful 2361 02:35:20,360 --> 02:35:24,520 Speaker 4: with these Supreme Court justice He's opponted with twisted logic, 2362 02:35:24,840 --> 02:35:29,760 Speaker 4: using persons that were activists and lawyers for the Confederacy 2363 02:35:30,520 --> 02:35:35,600 Speaker 4: to argue that this doesn't apply to all children. It 2364 02:35:35,720 --> 02:35:41,480 Speaker 4: only applied to the babies of slaves. He's doing it 2365 02:35:41,600 --> 02:35:43,760 Speaker 4: to try to twist it up and fool us, to 2366 02:35:43,879 --> 02:35:46,000 Speaker 4: make us think, as black people, oh, that's just those 2367 02:35:46,080 --> 02:35:48,720 Speaker 4: Latinos that we walk away from it, or that's just 2368 02:35:48,879 --> 02:35:51,280 Speaker 4: someone else. But the fact of the matter is scholars 2369 02:35:51,320 --> 02:35:55,240 Speaker 4: are saying that if you remove equal protection under the law, 2370 02:35:55,400 --> 02:35:59,240 Speaker 4: and you say that it was unconstitutional all this time, 2371 02:36:00,120 --> 02:36:01,800 Speaker 4: then what else do you have to go back and 2372 02:36:01,920 --> 02:36:07,039 Speaker 4: undo and what else do you also can no longer 2373 02:36:07,200 --> 02:36:08,960 Speaker 4: arguor for like in for instance, if you were the 2374 02:36:09,160 --> 02:36:13,240 Speaker 4: arguer reparation for saves, but then you say where they 2375 02:36:13,280 --> 02:36:19,960 Speaker 4: are citizens, neither were their descendants because they want because 2376 02:36:19,959 --> 02:36:22,960 Speaker 4: the way they were born, then you nullify that argument. 2377 02:36:24,280 --> 02:36:27,879 Speaker 4: We know that immediately if this were to be passed, 2378 02:36:28,480 --> 02:36:35,040 Speaker 4: people are eligible for deportation, arrest. You know you'd have 2379 02:36:35,200 --> 02:36:37,720 Speaker 4: to before you can get services, certain kinds of things, 2380 02:36:37,760 --> 02:36:40,280 Speaker 4: they merge you in the hospital. You have to produce 2381 02:36:40,480 --> 02:36:43,800 Speaker 4: proof for a baby. And I just want to keep 2382 02:36:43,840 --> 02:36:47,000 Speaker 4: saying that, cause this is talking about baby here. We're 2383 02:36:47,080 --> 02:36:50,959 Speaker 4: talking about babies, children, the most precious in God's sight 2384 02:36:51,040 --> 02:36:54,720 Speaker 4: and should be an eyesight. And he's coming today to intimidate. Sure, 2385 02:36:54,720 --> 02:36:58,560 Speaker 4: he's coming to intimidate. No sitting president has ever come 2386 02:36:58,640 --> 02:37:01,440 Speaker 4: to Supreme courtporen or in any history of this country, 2387 02:37:01,959 --> 02:37:05,959 Speaker 4: not one, never, Because there's supposed to be a separation 2388 02:37:06,080 --> 02:37:09,000 Speaker 4: between the executive and the judicial. And you know, Trump 2389 02:37:09,080 --> 02:37:12,160 Speaker 4: has walked all of that and morphed it in the 2390 02:37:12,280 --> 02:37:16,000 Speaker 4: believing that whether it's the judicial, the legislative branch, of 2391 02:37:16,160 --> 02:37:20,120 Speaker 4: the judicial branch, executive branch, they're all supposed to be 2392 02:37:20,160 --> 02:37:24,800 Speaker 4: controlled by him, him and for his building. Which is 2393 02:37:24,879 --> 02:37:27,680 Speaker 4: why I argue that what we're seeing Trump is a 2394 02:37:27,840 --> 02:37:32,640 Speaker 4: war on divinity. You know, he literally does believe in 2395 02:37:32,800 --> 02:37:37,199 Speaker 4: God and wants to be like the Caesars of old. 2396 02:37:37,640 --> 02:37:41,760 Speaker 4: You know, the Caesar, the one that crucified Jesus said 2397 02:37:41,800 --> 02:37:44,480 Speaker 4: he was the son of God. That Caesar wanted to 2398 02:37:44,520 --> 02:37:48,200 Speaker 4: make sure while he was living, his picture was on money, 2399 02:37:48,680 --> 02:37:50,640 Speaker 4: his name was on money. What is Trump doing there? 2400 02:37:50,959 --> 02:37:52,840 Speaker 4: He's trying to He's gonna make sure his name's on 2401 02:37:52,920 --> 02:37:55,840 Speaker 4: the dollar bill between and fifty. He's trying to get 2402 02:37:55,840 --> 02:37:59,359 Speaker 4: a coin. He's doing things that no other living president 2403 02:37:59,760 --> 02:38:03,600 Speaker 4: has ever done, and certainly all the sitting president. This 2404 02:38:03,879 --> 02:38:07,000 Speaker 4: is very serious stuff. And anybody that laughs at it, oh, 2405 02:38:07,040 --> 02:38:09,880 Speaker 4: they won't do it. You can't put past. You don't 2406 02:38:10,000 --> 02:38:11,920 Speaker 4: know what deals will cut to put use people on 2407 02:38:12,000 --> 02:38:14,480 Speaker 4: the Supreme Court. But I do know is if they 2408 02:38:14,560 --> 02:38:16,960 Speaker 4: do this today, we need to change the name from 2409 02:38:17,280 --> 02:38:21,199 Speaker 4: Supreme Court to Trump Court and Justice Court the Empres's Court. 2410 02:38:21,600 --> 02:38:24,080 Speaker 4: But it doesn't need to be supreme because it's not anymore. 2411 02:38:24,720 --> 02:38:30,200 Speaker 4: It's merely doing the business of a very sick, racist 2412 02:38:30,400 --> 02:38:37,400 Speaker 4: and demented want to be emperor demogogue. And then I said, 2413 02:38:37,520 --> 02:38:41,360 Speaker 4: using these words marriage intentional of this morning. You know, 2414 02:38:41,400 --> 02:38:43,360 Speaker 4: if you want to talk about seeing preachers, this is 2415 02:38:43,360 --> 02:38:46,800 Speaker 4: what y'all be talking about in Holy Week. During the 2416 02:38:46,879 --> 02:38:51,560 Speaker 4: week of Holy Week, car, we're going after babies. Do 2417 02:38:51,720 --> 02:38:55,160 Speaker 4: want people to understand that. And during the week of 2418 02:38:55,360 --> 02:38:59,520 Speaker 4: Holy Week, for a particular life for Christian we're going 2419 02:38:59,680 --> 02:39:06,520 Speaker 4: after baby babies in our laws and try to undo 2420 02:39:07,640 --> 02:39:11,120 Speaker 4: a law that was passed by people to save one 2421 02:39:11,200 --> 02:39:16,120 Speaker 4: hundred and fifty six years or eight years ago, to 2422 02:39:16,400 --> 02:39:22,400 Speaker 4: correct the sin of slaves, and we're arguing whether or 2423 02:39:22,440 --> 02:39:27,240 Speaker 4: not that should be continued. It is a time for 2424 02:39:27,320 --> 02:39:29,520 Speaker 4: the prophetic forces, if there ever was a time. 2425 02:39:30,480 --> 02:39:32,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, let me ask you this. The twenty six after 2426 02:39:32,280 --> 02:39:36,000 Speaker 2: that top, they are the visual your presentation. Hopefully you'll 2427 02:39:36,040 --> 02:39:38,720 Speaker 2: stay on the facts and not talk about Trump, because 2428 02:39:38,760 --> 02:39:41,400 Speaker 2: I think that's what he hopes, and he's already got 2429 02:39:41,440 --> 02:39:43,680 Speaker 2: some supporters on the Supreme Court. Do you think it's 2430 02:39:43,720 --> 02:39:45,880 Speaker 2: better if you just stick with the facts or appeal 2431 02:39:45,959 --> 02:39:50,000 Speaker 2: to their empathy about their children being deported, or should 2432 02:39:50,040 --> 02:39:53,600 Speaker 2: you say, like if this passes, then your son wouldn't 2433 02:39:53,600 --> 02:39:53,879 Speaker 2: be here. 2434 02:39:54,320 --> 02:39:57,119 Speaker 4: Donald Trump, Well, I'm going to stay with the facts, 2435 02:39:57,320 --> 02:39:59,800 Speaker 4: and the facts part of the facts that have to 2436 02:39:59,840 --> 02:40:02,120 Speaker 4: be he says, And because you have to speak to 2437 02:40:02,600 --> 02:40:04,520 Speaker 4: what's going on here, because the part of that, no, 2438 02:40:04,640 --> 02:40:07,320 Speaker 4: I'm gonna clearly say that. But now, remember these are 2439 02:40:07,360 --> 02:40:11,680 Speaker 4: the same people. They're religious folk, they're religious nationalists are 2440 02:40:11,800 --> 02:40:18,080 Speaker 4: arguing that empathy is a sing Now they're arguing that empathy. 2441 02:40:18,600 --> 02:40:21,120 Speaker 4: What is the cause of the fall and decline of 2442 02:40:21,200 --> 02:40:24,680 Speaker 4: Western civilization, and that empathy began in the civil in 2443 02:40:25,240 --> 02:40:28,360 Speaker 4: the sixty with the civil rights movement. I mean, that's 2444 02:40:28,400 --> 02:40:31,560 Speaker 4: how sick this stuff is called. It really call it 2445 02:40:31,640 --> 02:40:33,920 Speaker 4: for a wake up call, you know, particular in the 2446 02:40:34,040 --> 02:40:37,320 Speaker 4: church and Black Church. You literally have folk that are 2447 02:40:37,520 --> 02:40:41,800 Speaker 4: arguing that empathy that in fact they're planning or gathering 2448 02:40:41,920 --> 02:40:45,959 Speaker 4: on May seventeenth anniversarion the bill versus poor decision, calling 2449 02:40:46,000 --> 02:40:50,080 Speaker 4: people to come and recommit themselves to authentic Christianity on 2450 02:40:50,240 --> 02:40:56,440 Speaker 4: the mall, a more masculine Christianity, a Christianity than strong. 2451 02:40:57,080 --> 02:40:59,640 Speaker 4: You know. But if you ever noticed, they never talk 2452 02:40:59,680 --> 02:41:03,400 Speaker 4: about Jesus. They talk about me. They may call a 2453 02:41:03,440 --> 02:41:06,160 Speaker 4: scripture here there, but they don't talk about Jesus. And 2454 02:41:06,280 --> 02:41:09,840 Speaker 4: how could you because if you believe empathy is bald, 2455 02:41:10,560 --> 02:41:14,560 Speaker 4: that cancels out so much of what Jesus stood for. 2456 02:41:15,240 --> 02:41:18,279 Speaker 4: If anybody was empathetic and loving, and it was Jesus 2457 02:41:19,040 --> 02:41:21,840 Speaker 4: so so. But what I want folk to understand when 2458 02:41:21,879 --> 02:41:25,240 Speaker 4: I when I make these statements, they are factual. Even 2459 02:41:25,280 --> 02:41:30,760 Speaker 4: when I say you have somebody wrestling with war on divinity. Ah, 2460 02:41:32,040 --> 02:41:35,400 Speaker 4: you hear when you know whatever Trump wants something, you 2461 02:41:35,440 --> 02:41:38,680 Speaker 4: know what he wants is these things to be passed. 2462 02:41:38,720 --> 02:41:41,520 Speaker 4: But we have to let our people know that's part 2463 02:41:41,560 --> 02:41:45,160 Speaker 4: of the prophetic uh is you have to challenge, just 2464 02:41:45,280 --> 02:41:47,960 Speaker 4: like in the Book of Acts when they challenge the 2465 02:41:48,080 --> 02:41:52,000 Speaker 4: Haros who dressed themselves up in shining clothes on on 2466 02:41:52,280 --> 02:41:56,240 Speaker 4: on Easter Sunday, trying to portray himself with the God, 2467 02:41:56,840 --> 02:42:00,360 Speaker 4: and God had to deal with him or Pharaoh or 2468 02:42:00,520 --> 02:42:04,120 Speaker 4: others down to it. That's part of our critique. And 2469 02:42:04,240 --> 02:42:08,040 Speaker 4: when you hear somebody constantly stand up and say I'm great. 2470 02:42:09,000 --> 02:42:12,400 Speaker 4: Everything I've done is great, Everything I've done is the greatest. 2471 02:42:12,920 --> 02:42:16,000 Speaker 4: Nobody ever did anything like this. Nobody ever did anything 2472 02:42:16,200 --> 02:42:20,160 Speaker 4: like this. You know that's a God complex. It's a 2473 02:42:20,280 --> 02:42:24,640 Speaker 4: form of power insanity. And you can say that and 2474 02:42:25,000 --> 02:42:28,560 Speaker 4: also stay strict on the facts of what's any ready 2475 02:42:28,600 --> 02:42:30,760 Speaker 4: to happen. And that's what I'm going to do this 2476 02:42:30,920 --> 02:42:33,400 Speaker 4: morning at the opening as well as lead folk and prayer, 2477 02:42:34,160 --> 02:42:37,960 Speaker 4: is to talk about this tact. This is settled law. 2478 02:42:39,520 --> 02:42:42,280 Speaker 4: There's been a temper I says since nineteen ninety one 2479 02:42:42,440 --> 02:42:47,880 Speaker 4: to overturn it. If this law was to be changed, 2480 02:42:47,959 --> 02:42:52,119 Speaker 4: this constitutional law was to be changed, it would create 2481 02:42:53,320 --> 02:42:57,040 Speaker 4: a ton of a permanent underclass, which is what the 2482 02:42:57,160 --> 02:42:59,520 Speaker 4: goal of the passion of the fourteenth minute. It was 2483 02:43:00,040 --> 02:43:06,960 Speaker 4: fourteenth Amendment represented the rebirthing of America. The rebirthing of 2484 02:43:07,040 --> 02:43:12,400 Speaker 4: America is the fourteenth Amendment. Because every right, everything that 2485 02:43:12,520 --> 02:43:17,320 Speaker 4: we hold their medicare, medicaid, fairhousing, voting rights, women's rights, 2486 02:43:17,480 --> 02:43:22,320 Speaker 4: LGBTQ rights, any rights, always went to the fourteenth Amendment 2487 02:43:22,720 --> 02:43:25,560 Speaker 4: as a part of the legal basis for why we 2488 02:43:25,879 --> 02:43:29,800 Speaker 4: argued for those rights. Because the Fourteenth Amendment says you 2489 02:43:29,920 --> 02:43:35,240 Speaker 4: are providing equal protection under the law, and every child 2490 02:43:35,400 --> 02:43:44,080 Speaker 4: that is born here automatically receives citizenship. Automatically receiving citizenship. 2491 02:43:44,360 --> 02:43:46,640 Speaker 4: I think the Latin word is just soil. It means 2492 02:43:46,720 --> 02:43:49,840 Speaker 4: born on the foil. You get what's called soil rights 2493 02:43:50,240 --> 02:43:54,080 Speaker 4: because you were born here. And we have to continually 2494 02:43:54,120 --> 02:43:54,720 Speaker 4: lift that up. 2495 02:43:55,920 --> 02:43:58,520 Speaker 2: Thirty minutes after that topic, doctor Bori, if you have 2496 02:43:58,560 --> 02:43:59,840 Speaker 2: to run, let us know because I know you got 2497 02:43:59,920 --> 02:44:02,160 Speaker 2: to testify for the Spring Court this morning. But Mark 2498 02:44:02,240 --> 02:44:05,040 Speaker 2: in Baltimore has a question for ash Online one Grant 2499 02:44:05,120 --> 02:44:06,600 Speaker 2: Rice and Markey, Doctor. 2500 02:44:09,959 --> 02:44:12,879 Speaker 4: Grand Rising, thank you doctor Barber for everything. 2501 02:44:13,240 --> 02:44:20,200 Speaker 18: Just your question we had under under under the last administration. 2502 02:44:20,920 --> 02:44:24,520 Speaker 18: We had yet again because we had one under obabadministration. 2503 02:44:24,680 --> 02:44:31,080 Speaker 18: We had a comprehensive bipartisan immigration bill that that was 2504 02:44:31,120 --> 02:44:34,040 Speaker 18: supposed to be passed until Trump said I want to 2505 02:44:34,120 --> 02:44:42,360 Speaker 18: run on immigration number ten. Number two, Trump, the the 2506 02:44:42,560 --> 02:44:48,080 Speaker 18: the the, the, the Ice, Ice would have never been 2507 02:44:48,200 --> 02:44:51,880 Speaker 18: doing what they've been doing if they had the path, 2508 02:44:52,000 --> 02:44:54,440 Speaker 18: if they had to pass that bill, and we wouldn't 2509 02:44:54,440 --> 02:44:57,920 Speaker 18: be talking about Birther Fright citizenship. Why nobody talk about that? 2510 02:44:58,280 --> 02:44:58,840 Speaker 1: That's all. 2511 02:45:00,360 --> 02:45:03,560 Speaker 4: Well. I think this brother's analysis is spot on because 2512 02:45:04,200 --> 02:45:08,440 Speaker 4: listen what he said. We had a bipartisan bill. Trump said, No, 2513 02:45:10,320 --> 02:45:13,720 Speaker 4: what's the reason behind not wanting to fix the broken 2514 02:45:13,800 --> 02:45:19,200 Speaker 4: immigration citizens because of two things. Number one, there are 2515 02:45:19,320 --> 02:45:22,000 Speaker 4: forces that want to work people to make money, but 2516 02:45:22,120 --> 02:45:25,400 Speaker 4: they do not want those persons as citizenship life. And 2517 02:45:25,560 --> 02:45:30,599 Speaker 4: number two, America is quickly going through a changing demographic. 2518 02:45:30,840 --> 02:45:34,080 Speaker 4: In the next ten years, there will be no clear 2519 02:45:34,160 --> 02:45:36,920 Speaker 4: white majority. It will be something like thirty three thirty 2520 02:45:36,959 --> 02:45:41,040 Speaker 4: three thirty three. First time in the Western civilization that 2521 02:45:41,440 --> 02:45:44,880 Speaker 4: a country that had certain groups as slaves and certain 2522 02:45:44,959 --> 02:45:49,280 Speaker 4: groups as a merely farm workers, that those persons they 2523 02:45:49,320 --> 02:45:52,040 Speaker 4: once had a slave and farm workers will constitute the 2524 02:45:52,120 --> 02:45:58,120 Speaker 4: majority will constitute the majority. And be a majority, and 2525 02:45:58,280 --> 02:46:03,440 Speaker 4: the wealth is a country in the world, and everything 2526 02:46:03,520 --> 02:46:06,840 Speaker 4: we look at Project twenty twenty five is an attempt 2527 02:46:07,280 --> 02:46:13,120 Speaker 4: to gut the government, gut you know, it's money, gut laws, 2528 02:46:13,640 --> 02:46:17,439 Speaker 4: so that by the time a new more diverse majority 2529 02:46:17,600 --> 02:46:22,720 Speaker 4: comes into play, it will inherit a broken government. It 2530 02:46:22,760 --> 02:46:33,160 Speaker 4: will inherit a defunded government. Secondly, he's exactly right. Ice 2531 02:46:33,200 --> 02:46:36,440 Speaker 4: wouldn't have a leg to stand though it would be 2532 02:46:36,560 --> 02:46:42,199 Speaker 4: no the fires and the whole Ice issue is really 2533 02:46:42,360 --> 02:46:46,439 Speaker 4: about trying to use the Ice law of an illegal 2534 02:46:46,640 --> 02:46:52,200 Speaker 4: enforcement to cool down democracy, to freeze our democracy, which 2535 02:46:52,280 --> 02:46:54,400 Speaker 4: is why really Ice, what we see happening with Ice 2536 02:46:54,520 --> 02:46:57,840 Speaker 4: is morm so crisis of civilization, not just democracy. 2537 02:46:59,360 --> 02:47:00,320 Speaker 2: Is a to. 2538 02:47:01,920 --> 02:47:06,680 Speaker 4: To face people in fear. Remember Trump said that they 2539 02:47:06,720 --> 02:47:08,520 Speaker 4: were going to do so much and cause even the 2540 02:47:08,720 --> 02:47:12,920 Speaker 4: self deport Now, what's interesting about even the language that 2541 02:47:13,040 --> 02:47:16,520 Speaker 4: we use against our Latino or Mexican brothers and sisters, 2542 02:47:17,200 --> 02:47:20,920 Speaker 4: it's the same way that people against verse right citizenship. 2543 02:47:21,400 --> 02:47:25,480 Speaker 4: You have people now whose names like Trump and Miller. 2544 02:47:26,120 --> 02:47:29,200 Speaker 4: Let us know clearly their four parents were not going 2545 02:47:29,280 --> 02:47:33,000 Speaker 4: here because they weren't Apaches, they weren't Cherokee, and they 2546 02:47:33,040 --> 02:47:38,880 Speaker 4: weren't Mexicans because Mexicans own Texas, New Mexico, California. We 2547 02:47:39,080 --> 02:47:43,000 Speaker 4: stole it from them. We stole it from them. And 2548 02:47:43,200 --> 02:47:45,920 Speaker 4: now what folk are wanting to do is call people 2549 02:47:46,040 --> 02:47:52,160 Speaker 4: illegal from whom we stole from. I mean, when you 2550 02:47:52,280 --> 02:47:55,640 Speaker 4: really unpacked the history, it's quite warped, it's quite racist, 2551 02:47:55,760 --> 02:48:00,360 Speaker 4: it's quite ugly, and we're seeing it being played out 2552 02:48:00,480 --> 02:48:03,880 Speaker 4: right here in the Supreme Court. One of the things 2553 02:48:03,920 --> 02:48:05,440 Speaker 4: I'm going to say, and I'm gonna say it like 2554 02:48:05,879 --> 02:48:09,120 Speaker 4: the fourteenth Amendment was written to correct their sixth sin 2555 02:48:09,400 --> 02:48:15,560 Speaker 4: undergirded by inhumane philosophy of manifest destiny. This evil took 2556 02:48:15,680 --> 02:48:18,959 Speaker 4: people who were already here, told them they were heathen, 2557 02:48:19,120 --> 02:48:24,480 Speaker 4: removed them to reservation, took Mexicans who owned Texas, Mexico, Arizona, 2558 02:48:24,520 --> 02:48:27,880 Speaker 4: New Mexico, and California and stole them and called them 2559 02:48:27,959 --> 02:48:31,960 Speaker 4: wet bags, made them workland. Took slaves from Africa and 2560 02:48:32,160 --> 02:48:37,680 Speaker 4: made them and their children perpetual slaves. Birthright citizenship wasn't 2561 02:48:37,680 --> 02:48:44,199 Speaker 4: attempted to end and forever correct this sin against babies 2562 02:48:44,480 --> 02:48:47,560 Speaker 4: and humanity. And when we talk about babies called what 2563 02:48:47,800 --> 02:48:52,520 Speaker 4: we do know is that just last year just last year. 2564 02:48:52,879 --> 02:48:57,400 Speaker 4: I want your audience to hear this number. Just last year, 2565 02:48:58,120 --> 02:49:04,440 Speaker 4: there were tens of thousands of babies that were brought 2566 02:49:04,480 --> 02:49:06,760 Speaker 4: in that were born in this country. That would be 2567 02:49:06,879 --> 02:49:10,720 Speaker 4: negatively I packed it's it's just it was. It actually 2568 02:49:10,879 --> 02:49:15,320 Speaker 4: was three point six million babies the United States were 2569 02:49:15,360 --> 02:49:18,160 Speaker 4: born in the United States just last year. And this 2570 02:49:18,520 --> 02:49:24,440 Speaker 4: law is an attempt to undermine the rights of many, many, many, many, many, many, 2571 02:49:24,520 --> 02:49:26,279 Speaker 4: many thousands of those babies. 2572 02:49:29,000 --> 02:49:30,080 Speaker 2: Hopefully we haven't lost that. 2573 02:49:31,600 --> 02:49:34,840 Speaker 4: No, yeah, I'm good, that's fout. 2574 02:49:35,000 --> 02:49:38,279 Speaker 2: Go ahead, yeah, yeah, go ahead. 2575 02:49:38,360 --> 02:49:40,760 Speaker 4: Hear me when I said about the number, three. 2576 02:49:40,600 --> 02:49:43,840 Speaker 2: Point dropped out because you'll know your travel, but go ahead. 2577 02:49:43,879 --> 02:49:46,920 Speaker 4: And I was saying, is that yeah, that the United 2578 02:49:46,959 --> 02:49:51,240 Speaker 4: States welcome three point six million babies last year.

So the 2680 02:54:56,040 --> 02:54:59,640 Speaker 2: story breaks, you know, they think you could turn to 2681 02:54:59,720 --> 02:55:01,960 Speaker 2: the news stations.

But all I remember 2693 02:55:37,520 --> 02:55:40,800 Speaker 3: is how, you know, you thought immediately of the loss 2694 02:55:41,240 --> 02:55:44,640 Speaker 3: of such a great voice and of such a great artist, 2695 02:55:44,760 --> 02:55:48,120 Speaker 3: and the fact that he was slain by his very 2696 02:55:48,200 --> 02:55:52,440 Speaker 3: own father. You know, really added like, I don't know, 2697 02:55:52,520 --> 02:55:55,600 Speaker 3: an extra strike to that whole idea. And then Marvin 2698 02:55:55,640 --> 02:55:59,440 Speaker 3: Gaye's mother, Alberta Cooper Gay, spoke out a number of 2699 02:55:59,520 --> 02:56:03,360 Speaker 3: times about out the animosity that Gay Senior hell for 2700 02:56:03,520 --> 02:56:07,040 Speaker 3: his son. And you worked for Stevie. Wonder at the 2701 02:56:07,080 --> 02:56:11,000 Speaker 3: time that did Stevie say anything to you in regard 2702 02:56:11,080 --> 02:56:11,240 Speaker 3: to that? 2703 02:56:12,240 --> 02:56:14,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, because you know, well I didn't call him right away. 2704 02:56:14,720 --> 02:56:16,920 Speaker 2: He was listening to the radio and heard the reports. 2705 02:56:16,959 --> 02:56:20,160 Speaker 2: And you know, because he gave me this mobile phone. 2706 02:56:20,200 --> 02:56:21,960 Speaker 2: This is before we had cell phones. We have a 2707 02:56:22,040 --> 02:56:24,320 Speaker 2: mobile phone, and as three of us had it in 2708 02:56:24,400 --> 02:56:27,200 Speaker 2: the entire company to meet him, another person had a phone. 2709 02:56:27,400 --> 02:56:28,959 Speaker 2: So he called me on the phone. It's in the car. 2710 02:56:29,200 --> 02:56:31,520 Speaker 2: He's got a little antenna on the car and he 2711 02:56:31,600 --> 02:56:33,240 Speaker 2: called me. He says, it's not true. I says, yeah, 2712 02:56:33,760 --> 02:56:36,080 Speaker 2: you want to talk to the nurse. He said, no, no, no, 2713 02:56:36,240 --> 02:56:38,640 Speaker 2: But just you know, stay down there and keep us 2714 02:56:38,680 --> 02:56:41,760 Speaker 2: in form. But after it was the aftermath really that, 2715 02:56:42,200 --> 02:56:44,760 Speaker 2: you know. I got to know the mom and the sisters, 2716 02:56:45,360 --> 02:56:49,520 Speaker 2: uh sister especially, I think one is still living right now. 2717 02:56:49,879 --> 02:56:52,280 Speaker 2: They call it Sweet Sea, you know. And they're from 2718 02:56:52,400 --> 02:56:55,680 Speaker 2: d C So DC folks know the marveln is from Washington, 2719 02:56:55,800 --> 02:56:59,200 Speaker 2: d c R. Yeah. So so they they started a 2720 02:56:59,280 --> 02:57:02,600 Speaker 2: foundation for Marvin after and we'd meet at his house, 2721 02:57:02,959 --> 02:57:05,360 Speaker 2: you know. So it was interesting to have they try 2722 02:57:05,400 --> 02:57:08,279 Speaker 2: to move on after the after the death of Marvin. 2723 02:57:08,360 --> 02:57:11,240 Speaker 2: But it was tough to go because Marvin is irreplaceable. 2724 02:57:12,120 --> 02:57:12,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, man. 2725 02:57:13,000 --> 02:57:17,360 Speaker 3: And as the story would go, and the tumultuous relationship 2726 02:57:17,760 --> 02:57:20,760 Speaker 3: came to a head April first, nineteen eighty four, at 2727 02:57:20,840 --> 02:57:24,320 Speaker 3: his parents home then in Los Angeles, and he stood 2728 02:57:24,400 --> 02:57:28,120 Speaker 3: up for his mother's screaming at Gate Senior, you can't 2729 02:57:28,240 --> 02:57:30,520 Speaker 3: talk to my mother like that. And after a brief 2730 02:57:30,840 --> 02:57:34,440 Speaker 3: but clearly heated physical fight, Gay Senior walked up to 2731 02:57:34,600 --> 02:57:36,879 Speaker 3: his son with a thirty eight out of a revolver 2732 02:57:37,360 --> 02:57:40,360 Speaker 3: and shot him twice. The first shot was fatal, but 2733 02:57:40,560 --> 02:57:43,800 Speaker 3: Gay Seniors decided to shoot him a second time point blank. 2734 02:57:44,760 --> 02:57:48,560 Speaker 2: Man, I tell you, you know, it was your shoot too, Kevin. 2735 02:57:48,879 --> 02:57:51,520 Speaker 2: You know, because when Stevie first bought the station, we 2736 02:57:51,640 --> 02:57:54,120 Speaker 2: had a hoop at the back, and you know, the 2737 02:57:54,440 --> 02:57:56,840 Speaker 2: jail manage at the time set it up.
