Usually when whenever 99 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: they make these decisions, he used to drop them on 100 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: a Friday, Friday afternoon because it's a slow news day 101 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: because people, you know, not checking for news. And the 102 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: next day but he knows it New Year's even people 103 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 1: are partying, so I'll drop you right now and it'll 104 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: go sort of slide onto the news coverage if you will. 105 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: But it didn't because people are still you know, it's 106 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: a different time now with the Internet and all the way, 107 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: so we can get information. So that's what he hoped. 108 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: But it still will be part of the discussion, probably 109 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 1: on the Sunday morning news shows. She's what he's trying 110 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 1: to avoid. So he doesn't like to lose, as you 111 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: know that that's part of his personality, I know. 112 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 2: And it's like those judges aren't loyal. They're not loyal, 113 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 2: you know how he loves loyalty. And they say in 114 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 2: blocking the guard deployment to Chicago, and the Supreme Court 115 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 2: suggested that a president's power to federalize the Guard, which 116 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 2: federal law allows when he can no longer execute the 117 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 2: laws of the states with regular forces, would not apply 118 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 2: to protecting agents enforcing immigration laws. So, in other words, 119 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 2: he was trying to overstep the law. And his withdrawal 120 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 2: announcement was welcomed by California Attorney General Rob Bunta, a Democrat, 121 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 2: who said in a statement that the administration rather was 122 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 2: using the Guard as political pawns and blasted Trump as 123 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,919 Speaker 2: a president desperate to be a. 124 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: King's that's right, desperation.

So they weren't swayed by that 180 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: because you're popular and you're a musician. Another musician tried, 181 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: by the way, and one that's that's another one. That's 182 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: another thing too.

This is what we wish for each and 223 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: every one of our listeners this morning. So brother ron Man, 224 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: help us. How do we achieve that? 225 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 6: Yes? First of all, you know, stress people when they 226 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 6: hear stress in a positive way, they think of, you know, 227 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 6: techniques of managing it. The thing is that when you 228 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,959 Speaker 6: manage stress, you're dealing with stress after the fact that 229 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 6: it has you know, finished damage or bothering your psyche. 230 00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 5: You see that. 231 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 6: So stress spree means that there's a number of techniques, 232 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 6: certain meditations and UH affirmations and what people now call 233 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 6: them breath work, and you can do to prevent you know, 234 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 6: stress episodes from happening. And you want to get ahead 235 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 6: of the stress because stress, you know, kills people just 236 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 6: doesn't make it very sick. It kills people the high 237 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 6: blood pasure strokes and you know, damage the immune systems 238 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 6: that dire for cancer and make a cancer worse and 239 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 6: so on. So stress is something you want to get 240 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 6: ahead of as opposed to trying to manage it after 241 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 6: that's happened, you know. 242 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,680 Speaker 1: All right, So how do we do that? Because it 243 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,719 Speaker 1: seems like just being here, just being just existing on 244 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 1: this side of the planet, it's stressful. And I had 245 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: a conversation with Professor Small and we agreed we someone 246 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: when you know, we come from go to the continent, 247 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: you come back. And I was telling, man, we got 248 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: to Kennedy and all of a sudden, this, this, this, 249 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 1: I can't explain, it just comes over. You got oh, 250 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 1: now I got to deal with these jokes. You look around, 251 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 1: he said, I got to deal with these jokers. Now, 252 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 1: you know, it's just he says, he agreed. He says, 253 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: there's something about when you go to the content, it's 254 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 1: it's sort of stress free. So explain to us, how 255 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 1: do we how do we how do we stay away 256 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: from even bringing the stress on us as black people 257 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:20,560 Speaker 1: living here in America? 258 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 6: Uh, the second thing, I should do the first thing first, 259 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 6: but I want to start with the second thing. I 260 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 6: thought about the first thing next. The second thing that 261 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 6: causes that set yet for stress is a general belief 262 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 6: that they are stressful things in the world. You know, 263 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 6: nothing is stressful. Stress is your you know, response, a 264 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 6: certain response that we inherited from the animal kingdom, you know, 265 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 6: along with the sympathetic nervous system, which is in charge 266 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,959 Speaker 6: of outer life in another words, prepared us for fighting, 267 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 6: for fleeing, preparing us to deal with difficulties and so forth. 268 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 6: There's an autonomous sympathetic nervous response that prepares us. It 269 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,439 Speaker 6: takes blood away from the vital organs and gives the 270 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 6: blood to the arms, the legs, you know, s appear 271 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 6: us to run away, to fight and so on. But 272 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 6: that response is natural to the animal kingdom from from 273 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 6: whence we you know, inherit it. You know, when you 274 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 6: take for example, an elk idea or something in the 275 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 6: wild and they are going to be attacked by a predator, 276 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 6: they have a sympathetic stress response helps him to run away, 277 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 6: you know. So once they find that they got away 278 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 6: and they're safe, the body automatically automatically kicks in into 279 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 6: rest mode. 280 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: For a second Brother Family seventeen.

So brother am in 298 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: unless you finish it telling us how to use those 299 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: techniques so we can we can do what you said 300 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: for the remainder of the year. 301 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 6: Yes, sir. The first thing is that you know, stress 302 00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 6: is a response that we inherited from animal kingdom when 303 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 6: we are threatened by you know, a physical confrontation. In 304 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 6: other words, you know, when that that dear that elk 305 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 6: is going to be killed by a predator, they're going 306 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 6: to stress response. 307 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 4: You see. 308 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 6: The problem is that us humans now, you know, we 309 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 6: respond to non physical threatening situations with the same old 310 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 6: stress response from animal kingdom, meaning that whereas the animal 311 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 6: was trying to save itself, trying to keep itself from 312 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 6: becoming a meal, you know, from the dinner to a predator, 313 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 6: you know, we're going to stress mode. You know, because 314 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 6: let's say somebody interrupted us. You know, somebody you know 315 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 6: is doing something that is costing us, you know, extra money, unnecessary, 316 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 6: you know, but non fatal situations. And then what happens 317 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 6: is that we get stuck in that stress response and 318 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 6: cannot come out of it. It is that's that's the part. 319 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 6: If we had a stress response for a few minutes, 320 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:08,640 Speaker 6: you know, from a real challenging, physically challenging situation, that's 321 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 6: certainly our survival, and then we come out of it 322 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,239 Speaker 6: after a couple of minutes or hour or so, there 323 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 6: will not be a problem. Yeh see that. 324 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, brother, I mean, many of 325 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: us live in here don't know that we're on the 326 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 1: stress I didn't know how stressful. And this is the 327 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: conversation I probably pick it up with Professor Small when 328 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: he comes on. When when we left here and went 329 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 1: back to Africa and we visited in Africa, this is 330 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: a different feeling that you get. And you know, we 331 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 1: just don't know, I don't know how to put it 332 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: in words. But one of my one of my trips 333 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,120 Speaker 1: there we went, we went and this was to Ghana, 334 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 1: and there was a brother there sitting on the beach 335 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,679 Speaker 1: on the tent, and so we just went up to 336 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 1: talk to him. Always American, he's accent so so, and 337 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 1: asked him how long have you been there? He says, 338 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 1: we went there and maybe in March, and he has 339 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: been there, thinks Thanksgiving. He came out on Thanksgiving and 340 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 1: he says he's not going back. He said, this is it, man, 341 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,640 Speaker 1: This this tranquil, tranquility, this is stress free. He says, 342 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 1: I'm just sitting here just just enjoying life. And it 343 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,159 Speaker 1: dawned on me that he left everything. He says, he 344 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 1: left everything because it was a trip and he's not 345 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: going back, coming back because of all the stress. And 346 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: maybe I had an impact on me because I was like, wow, 347 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 1: he's true, there's a feeling. But once you hear you 348 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 1: don't know the difference because that's all you know, living 349 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: here with a stress that's here, and all of a sudden, 350 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: this weight that's on your shoulders is taken off. So 351 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: what do you say? The folks who who listening to 352 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 1: us right now, and they are being stressed out, but 353 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 1: they really don't know because they've that's all they've done, 354 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: that's all they've that's the only kind of meal that 355 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: they've eaten. So that's why they think that's the only 356 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: thing that's out there. What do you say to those folks? 357 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 6: Well, the person to understand is that you know, when 358 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,439 Speaker 6: you go into stress mode, it's just not simply feeling 359 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 6: of anger, of fear, of worry, grief and so forth. 360 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 6: They're all kinds of you know, pathological things happening. You know, 361 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:14,120 Speaker 6: your your blood pressure rises, for example, your heart rate, vaiability, 362 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:19,199 Speaker 6: you know drops. You have a lot of fundamental changes 363 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 6: taking place within you that you are not going to experience. 364 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:26,399 Speaker 6: Your body during a secrets of that of cortisol, you know, 365 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:31,439 Speaker 6: a very nasty you know, destructive hormone that is a 366 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 6: foundation of cancer. You see a weight gain, excessive weight 367 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:39,199 Speaker 6: gain and so on, And it has to do with 368 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 6: your lack of control over your situation. So will you 369 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 6: take a trip, you know, to Ghana or and I've 370 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 6: taken many trips again of myself, but it's a different 371 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 6: dynamics you see that you know on a trip, you 372 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 6: know you're in a situation that really have more control 373 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 6: over your environment of what's happening on a daily basis 374 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 6: what most of us taking place with the stress response, 375 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,679 Speaker 6: you're not aware of it. That raised blood pressure, that 376 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:12,640 Speaker 6: raised you know, you know, blood sugar level that raised, 377 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 6: you know, inflammatory response going on in your body, that 378 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 6: a lot of illness is taking place, you know, the 379 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 6: withdrawal of vitality from the ability to be motivated. 380 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 3: You know. 381 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 6: So people saying that stress is just amount of feeling 382 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 6: angry or feeling upset or whatever. No, there are hundreds 383 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 6: of different types of you know, physiological pathological responses take 384 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 6: that takes place not only for that hour that you 385 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 6: felt upset, but it becomes chronic, stays in their day 386 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 6: after day, month after month. That some people who are 387 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 6: in stress mode for the entire year or two or 388 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 6: three and then they don't know why, how why do 389 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 6: they get that diabetes, theyn't understand why they get in 390 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 6: that weight gain. They don't understand why, you know, and 391 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 6: that's because you know they have you know, a of 392 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 6: you of stress that is not complete. So this is 393 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 6: what I teach. You know, people who come a teaching 394 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 6: number one, stop saying that things are stressful because you know, 395 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,440 Speaker 6: the thing that John says is stressful may not create 396 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 6: stress for Robert or for Mary. They say that, why 397 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 6: because there's certain things in your thinking pattern, you know 398 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 6: that modifies your response to challenge. And what you have 399 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 6: to learn is to how to use your ideas, your narratives, 400 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 6: to put narratives that that actors commands to your psyche, 401 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 6: to your subconscious to be peaceful instead of going into 402 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 6: flight mode. I hope that this explains a little bit 403 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 6: of ask for what is stressed is you know, the 404 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 6: worst part of stress is not what you feel, is 405 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 6: what's going on, you know, in the subconscious and in 406 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 6: your pathological you know name. 407 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: Got it twenty eight after the top there, But brother, aman, 408 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 1: what about the anxiety that you feel? You feel you know, 409 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: almost not to the extent of paranoia, but anxious and 410 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: this is what And you're like, oh, I got to 411 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: deal with this? And what do you talked about? What 412 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 1: it does physically to your body? But how do you 413 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: deal with the anxiety that comes over you? 414 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 6: Well, if you want to, you know, in a doctor, 415 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:32,400 Speaker 6: they will tell you that anxiety is your nervous system, 416 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:37,160 Speaker 6: your sympatic nervous system in a hyper state is stuck 417 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 6: in the hyper state. Just hear that and they're no. 418 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:48,680 Speaker 6: The psychicologists will teach you certain breathing techniques we called 419 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 6: breathwork meaning deep you know, dipragmatic breathing, meaning breathing from 420 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 6: the lower abdomen, very slowly, very contained. You know, a 421 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 6: couple of those breads. You know, some people might need 422 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,439 Speaker 6: one bread, some people I need ten breads. But it 423 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 6: will definitely abolish the anxiety, you know, and the anger 424 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 6: and the upset because when you breathe deeply from the 425 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 6: lower abdomen, instead of raising your chest that upper chest breathing, 426 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 6: which creates even more anxiety. So when you breed from 427 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:24,640 Speaker 6: the lower abdomen, it engages a nerve called the vagus nerve, 428 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 6: which is the largest nerve in your body, to activate 429 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 6: the powasympathetic part of the nervous system. That turns around 430 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:36,879 Speaker 6: and cools down the sympathetic and removes the stress response. 431 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 4: To see that, but you. 432 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 6: Open yourself up the stress if you believe that something 433 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 6: is a stressor you know, the people believe that there 434 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 6: are things that had the inherent ability to create stress, 435 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 6: and that's not true. If there are affirmations and certain 436 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 6: narratives that you can compose that will make that will 437 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 6: command your nervous system to remain peaceful, to go to 438 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 6: go back to peaceful state. You hear that and you're 439 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 6: going to be speaking to uh Small later on. I 440 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 6: spent some time in Africa with him when we were 441 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 6: guests of Flat Lieutenant Rawlings present Rawlings at the time, 442 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 6: and you know, these are things that we spoke about 443 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 6: and so on in a Professor Small than I be 444 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 6: speaking about this for and now decades, passing these teachings 445 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 6: onto the people and so on. 446 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: We'll get yourself to here for a second. Brother, and Benny, 447 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 1: ironic that you say that, because that was the conversation 448 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,640 Speaker 1: I have with Professor Small. We're talking about Flight Lieutenant 449 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,919 Speaker 1: Jerry Rawlings. For those folks who don't know, he was 450 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: the president of Ghane and he used to make a 451 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 1: lot of trips to La every year. He come to 452 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 1: La with his wife and they wolveayskind have him on 453 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: the station when he comes in. And we were discussing 454 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 1: just last night how gracious he was with the person 455 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: he was, and then he would come this morning. I 456 00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 1: did I know that you and Professor Small and met 457 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 1: with a Jerry Rawlings as well. But that's interesting what 458 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 1: you just said. I just wanted to share that with you. 459 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 1: I guess the answers is to working with us this morning. 460 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 1: Thirty minutes after the top of our family. You're just 461 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: waking up, You're just joining us. Happy New Year. I 462 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 1: guess his brother ra a men from the as said society, 463 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: and he shared with us some of the in techniques 464 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 1: to use to live a stress free, happy life for 465 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty six. But you know, again talking about these 466 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: triggers that you mentioned that the trigger anxiety, what are 467 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,439 Speaker 1: you say you there's certain I guess certain things we 468 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:34,880 Speaker 1: can say to that will turn away or subside the anxiety. 469 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:37,919 Speaker 1: Can you share with us when when you're feeling this 470 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,160 Speaker 1: anxiety coming on you, what are some of the things 471 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,160 Speaker 1: that you can say to yourself and does it really work? 472 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 6: Yes, tar Wars. First of all, if you know the 473 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 6: anxiety is created by the belief that's things I've inheriting 474 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 6: power to create stress, to create a stress responsegain, that's 475 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 6: not true, meaning that once you accept that, say that 476 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 6: your job is stressful, to keep repeating that mantra. You 477 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 6: know this job is stressful, this job is you know, 478 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 6: driving me crazy, or this marriage is stressful. You know, 479 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 6: when you repeat that belief that something has the power 480 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 6: to create stress in you, you just set you just 481 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 6: have set yourself up to have stress response not only 482 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,400 Speaker 6: to what you are affirming, but to anything that challenges you. 483 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 6: So you have to say things that I know that 484 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 6: the truth is for an affirmation, for example, as not 485 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 6: rating and affirming the truth that things are not stressful, 486 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 6: and that you have that you are in control of 487 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:41,679 Speaker 6: your mind. Therefore you are control of your nervousness, and 488 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 6: therefore you will to remain at peace and regain your 489 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 6: peace in this challenging situation. And that's the crude, you know, 490 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 6: example of an affirmation you can use. But if you 491 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 6: use it and repeat it several times a day, you 492 00:26:56,520 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 6: see that and and and and and along with the 493 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 6: deep lower different you know, lower abdomen breathing, you will 494 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 6: find that eventually you those words will maintain the piece 495 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,199 Speaker 6: within you. But what you gotta understand about breathing is 496 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 6: that if you are an upward chest breathing, and if 497 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 6: you raise your chest when you take in here you 498 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 6: are you are setting yourself up to have anxiety and 499 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 6: depression and emotional instability. 500 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 5: You know, by by. 501 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 6: Nature, we're supposed to breed from. 502 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 7: The lower abdomen. 503 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 6: We're supposed to push the lower abdomen down and out, 504 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 6: you know, slowly and then bring it in. But plass 505 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 6: of people raise their chests when they breathe in, and 506 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 6: that's what sets you of anxiety and stress and many 507 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:47,919 Speaker 6: other illnesses. 508 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,679 Speaker 1: Family is just checking in. Our guess is the founder 509 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 1: of the set society Is name is brother men, and 510 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: what is sharing with us this morning is how all 511 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 1: the secrets are are stress free, happy life, and hopefully 512 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: that's what we can do for twenty twenty six. But brother, brother, 513 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: I'm in how does this manifest itself in children? 514 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 8: Can? 515 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: We can? They do the same tech use the same techniques, 516 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 1: and sometimes they're going through stuff and they don't know 517 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 1: that they're being stressed out. And sometimes adults will say, well, 518 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,399 Speaker 1: what are you stressing about? For you? You don't have 519 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: to pay rent, you don't have to you know, food, 520 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 1: food on the table. But children go through this as well, 521 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: So how do you how do you pass this on 522 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 1: to our children? 523 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 6: Well, one of the things that determines your stress response 524 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 6: and your ability to come out of it to avoid 525 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 6: it is what we call control. If you have over 526 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 6: control of a situation, of a demanding situation, you're gonna 527 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 6: find you're not going to have a stress response. But 528 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 6: you don't have control or you lose control. That is 529 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 6: when you're going to that's that's when the stress response 530 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 6: is going to kick in. So the worst thing to 531 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 6: say to a child is that you know why you stressed. 532 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 6: You know, I paid a and so in other words, 533 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 6: you're emphasizing the lack of control over the situation that 534 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 6: the child has. That just sets the child up. Now 535 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 6: you know, I don't have control situation, and then know 536 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 6: the stress response sets in. You know, we've had several 537 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 6: schools in the side I said, you know, kindergarten through 538 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 6: twelfth grade. We had one you know, uh in d 539 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 6: C for many years, you know, on different parts of 540 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 6: the country, and we teach kids how to breed from 541 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:29,959 Speaker 6: the lower abdomen. As a matter of fact, you know, 542 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 6: it's it's important that for kids learn to breed from 543 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 6: the lower abdomen as supposed to raising your chest, because 544 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 6: that's what's that's what says the chest the chiven up 545 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 6: to you know, anxiety, stress, you know response and so on. 546 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 4: And you'd be. 547 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 6: Surprised how early, you know, in the you know, around 548 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 6: six seventy eight years old, you tell the child put 549 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 6: your your your hand over your time and your lower 550 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 6: adomin underneath by the ambilicus the area there and push 551 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 6: the lower adam man out generally and the automatically forces 552 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 6: you to breathe in, pull the lower adomen in and 553 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 6: they have their hands on their lower adomen and they 554 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 6: can see it and feel it moved in and out mona, 555 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 6: and you focus pushing out the lower adommen which will 556 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 6: automatically bring makes you breathe in, put it in and 557 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 6: automatically breathe out and you and they repeat that breathing 558 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 6: for about you know, ten cycles, you know, ten breads, 559 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 6: and it automatically you know, calms the sympathetic down you see, 560 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 6: and take the children out of that high per simpatic 561 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 6: mode be called anxiety.

But they self medicate, whether they 568 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: be drugs, drink or food or sex whatever. But that's 569 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: self medication.

As I mentioned, adults, we go for comfort, 620 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 1: it may be food or maybe drugs, alcohol sics, whatever 621 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: it is to deal with the anxiety, and then all 622 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 1: of a suddenly we think the anxiety goes away. So 623 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: I question to you, how do children deal with it though, 624 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: because they when when they get these triggers, is it 625 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: just outburst? Is just a physical crime? How they deal 626 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 1: with it? And again, if you can repeat on how 627 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 1: we can help them, you know, deal with with with 628 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:48,719 Speaker 1: this stress. 629 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 6: Yes, well, with children, there are certain anxiety moments I 630 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 6: give my recognized as such, are not recognized as such, 631 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 6: and it's best to stay away from labels with them. Sorry, 632 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 6: when you see a child, you know getting upset, afraid 633 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:13,839 Speaker 6: to do something or upset about you know, the way 634 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 6: things are going. They might be having an anxiety or 635 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 6: they might be having anger or your warrior. So you 636 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 6: have to, you know, be mindful of how you're label 637 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 6: to the child what the child is having, because you 638 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 6: can end up mislabeling, you know, an emotion and making 639 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 6: a different difficult later on you know, to deal with. 640 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 6: But doesn't matter what the emotional problem is. You know, 641 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 6: all emotional problems, anxiety, depression, anger, whatever, are breathing situations. 642 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 6: You know. We're the breathing ships, you know. Or it 643 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 6: becomes exacerbated when you breath on the upper chest, when 644 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 6: you raise your your chests on the mbress, you know, 645 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 6: and lo over on the outbred instead of pushing the 646 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 6: lower adamant out on the on the inbred and pulling 647 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 6: it in an abred outbreath. That's the way to abolish 648 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 6: the sensation you call anger, fear of war, regrief, and 649 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 6: things of that nature. When adults make the same mistake 650 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 6: they labeled breathe negative breathing situations, they label them as 651 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:27,280 Speaker 6: emotional situations that yes, that might require some comfort food 652 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,839 Speaker 6: or some comfort act or whatever. And that's why it 653 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 6: keeps coming back. You find that crying is a form 654 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 6: you know, of relaxation. When a when a child or 655 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 6: an adurg rise, that's the nervous system trying to to 656 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 6: bring back lower abdominal breathing. You see that, So you know, 657 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 6: when a child is crying, let the child cry, but 658 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 6: teach them how to breathe from the lower abdomen. Just 659 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 6: don't wait for them to have an episode. Teach them 660 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 6: on a regular basis what to do when they are 661 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 6: upset emotionally. What name you know, you give it, you 662 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:08,719 Speaker 6: know it's not important, but it's the best not to 663 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:15,239 Speaker 6: label it, because I've seen children indulge an emotion, you know, 664 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:19,360 Speaker 6: because they believe that they are justified in indulging that 665 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 6: emotion because they were told, you know, that they have 666 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 6: an illness or you just you know, you have an 667 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 6: anger problem. So the child doesn't know what how to 668 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 6: deal with anger, so they indulge it, you know. Teach 669 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,959 Speaker 6: them how to breed properly. Teach yourself how to breed, 670 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 6: probably from the local adaman. As a matter of fact, 671 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:42,919 Speaker 6: practice it every day. Because the respiratory system is half 672 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:48,280 Speaker 6: automatic and half you know, voluntary, So you can teach 673 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 6: the respitory system, how to breed from the local adamin 674 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,319 Speaker 6: at all times. And you find that when you do that, 675 00:36:55,360 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 6: you reduce your propensity to stress and to different emotions. 676 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 6: So that's the way to handle it. If you keep 677 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,720 Speaker 6: with a narrative in your mind that seems are stressful things, 678 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 6: things are the power to make you angry. No, take 679 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 6: control over your emotions by controlling your breathing. Control your 680 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:20,279 Speaker 6: emotions by controlling your breathing. Nothing can stop you from 681 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:24,799 Speaker 6: breathing correctly. And that's your key to controlling stress in 682 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 6: your life or manage it, get rid of it. 683 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 1: Got it? Turn away from the top of our family 684 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 1: with a brother ra Iman, the founder of a set 685 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,759 Speaker 1: society and is sharing us with us some techniques how 686 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:39,399 Speaker 1: to handle stress and have a stress free, happy life. 687 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: For twenty twenty six, got a tweet question for you though. 688 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 1: A tweeter just says, brother am In, I have to 689 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 1: go to work and there's this one guy who's just 690 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 1: negative about every single thing and every single person, and 691 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 1: folks on the job hate to see him coming, but 692 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:54,759 Speaker 1: we're stuck with him. How do we deal with this 693 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 1: because we feel anxiety? I guess when he leaves, I 694 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 1: just added that part. But this is what the person 695 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 1: is saying. 696 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 6: Typical situations. You know that somebody is very negative, and 697 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 6: what does it You know, your response is to give 698 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 6: yourself a narrative. This person is a jerk, this person 699 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 6: is negative. I can stand him. I wish he. 700 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:19,280 Speaker 4: Would go away. 701 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:24,319 Speaker 6: That narrative is what's feeding your nervous system and your 702 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:28,320 Speaker 6: refutory system to go, you know, in the wrong direction. 703 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:32,879 Speaker 6: If instead of your giving yourself that narrative about how 704 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 6: negative person is and the effect they have upon you, 705 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,759 Speaker 6: if instead of doing that, you focus on breeding from 706 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:43,320 Speaker 6: the lower app dommen, and while you're doing that, recites 707 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 6: set the affirmation that I am in control, not that 708 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:51,360 Speaker 6: not I will be. I am in control of my breathing, 709 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 6: nervous system and my breathings, you know, my respiratory system. 710 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 6: So I am in control with my of my nervous system. 711 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:00,840 Speaker 6: I am at peace. 712 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:01,840 Speaker 4: You know. 713 00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,440 Speaker 6: Worse that effect and you will find that after repeating 714 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 6: this statement several times a day, you have to cultivate. 715 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,760 Speaker 6: It has to be a daily cultivation for several days 716 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 6: or several weeks, depending on how strong it was at 717 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 6: the beginning. But if you put that narrative in place. 718 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 6: You say, I am in control of you know, my 719 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:28,919 Speaker 6: resistery system. Therefore I have control over my breathing, which 720 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 6: controls my emotions. If you've got affirmation, repeat it, you know, 721 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 6: for like a minute or two, four or five times 722 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,439 Speaker 6: a day, and after a couple of days or let's 723 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 6: say four or five, six days or so, you find 724 00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:48,279 Speaker 6: yourself being able to remain a piece or regain your 725 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 6: piece when you come across the person that you believe 726 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:57,319 Speaker 6: is the cause of your stress or emotional response. Nobody 727 00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 6: is responsible for your emotional response. Only you are responsible 728 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 6: for your emotional because the emotional you know, reactions. 729 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,799 Speaker 1: Let me jump in. I hate to Andrew, but I'll 730 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 1: ask you this though. In that situation, though, would it 731 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,480 Speaker 1: be good to step to the person and say, hey, man, 732 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,319 Speaker 1: why are you so negative everything? And just remember because 733 00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: sometimes people don't know that they're negative, you know, I 734 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 1: just that's I guess that's the way they're built. Would 735 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 1: it be good to point out, or maybe do it 736 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 1: in a gentler way, why so negative? Everything's just that? 737 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 1: Everything's just negative? And you know, for me, I just 738 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:36,719 Speaker 1: avoid people like that. But how how did would that 739 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 1: be a good technique to use? To to alert them 740 00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:40,440 Speaker 1: if they are being negative. 741 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 6: Well number one, if they if they have that effect 742 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:48,320 Speaker 6: on you where you feel upset, work on you're feeling 743 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,400 Speaker 6: of upset, and if you can and if you can 744 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,719 Speaker 6: get away with speaking to them about it, then do so. 745 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 6: But you know lots of people you don't. That will 746 00:40:56,320 --> 00:41:00,240 Speaker 6: only make things worse. I even need a physical confrontations 747 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:02,839 Speaker 6: and so on. That's something that might be your boss 748 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:05,839 Speaker 6: that you cannot say that to your boss, lose your 749 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 6: job and things of that nature. So yes, along with 750 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:13,240 Speaker 6: the information I just gave you and the breeding technique, 751 00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 6: if you can say it to the person, you're be 752 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:19,919 Speaker 6: helping the person that way. My experience though with lots 753 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 6: of my students is that when they when they smile 754 00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:28,400 Speaker 6: mental live or smile outward in the face of somebody 755 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:34,120 Speaker 6: who is you know, a problem. You know, they experience 756 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 6: a calming effect from that. And psychological study that have 757 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:44,760 Speaker 6: shown that if you smile, whether you have a reason 758 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 6: to smile or not, whether you want to smile or that, 759 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 6: if you make yourself smile, it causes the brain to 760 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:57,320 Speaker 6: release you know, new transmittle type dopamine, serotonin, you know, 761 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:02,600 Speaker 6: oxcuating and so forth. Which will prove your health and 762 00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:06,920 Speaker 6: also you know, help to reprogram your nervous system to 763 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 6: remain you know, peaceful, to see that when you. 764 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was going to ask you this a brother, 765 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 1: I mean, would it be better to have a defensive 766 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 1: posture then say okay this, I know this precious negatives, 767 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 1: So I'm just going to smile and whatever they said, 768 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:26,840 Speaker 1: just shake their head and just go along and just 769 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 1: say yeah, that's right, that's right, instead of being confrontational. 770 00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:33,000 Speaker 1: Would would that work? And would that reduce the stress 771 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 1: the anxiety in you as a person? 772 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 6: What would reduce anxiety? Don't forget stress is a respiratory 773 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 6: respiratory crisis. It's not an emotional crisis. It's not a 774 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:49,359 Speaker 6: narrative crisis. It's a crisis that's taken place in your 775 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:53,239 Speaker 6: nervous system, in your respiratory system. And that is what 776 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 6: you got to focus your attention on. You said, if 777 00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,720 Speaker 6: you smile and study them showing that when you smile, 778 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 6: meaning it or not, your body will automatically secrease certain 779 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 6: biochemicals that will that will calm you down and restore 780 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 6: your motivation and your positivity and things of that nature. 781 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:13,879 Speaker 6: That is what you want you see that, you say, 782 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,400 Speaker 6: But then the only words that are important to you 783 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 6: is that you are in control of your breathing, therefore 784 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 6: your control of your emotions, your respiratory system, and therefore 785 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 6: you in control of your emotions. Repeat that to you, 786 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:30,880 Speaker 6: along with the proper breathing and that internal smile, and 787 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 6: then you will find that you will no longer get 788 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:37,360 Speaker 6: you know, caught up in the negative emotional response. You 789 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 6: see that when you say stress, you're giving a name 790 00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:43,480 Speaker 6: that has no control and doesn't really explain what's going 791 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:45,840 Speaker 6: on between you. If you say, I'm having, you know, 792 00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 6: a negative breathing response, now you are in the territory 793 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 6: to control what's happening with you. You see, if you 794 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:56,800 Speaker 6: can help that person by saying something to them, you 795 00:43:56,880 --> 00:44:01,239 Speaker 6: know you said, you know, will that help? It might 796 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 6: help with some people, They may not help other people. 797 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,280 Speaker 6: But whatever you do, measure that you assert your control 798 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:12,719 Speaker 6: over your breathing and therefore over your emotional response, which 799 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 6: does not stop you from saying xys either that person. 800 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:20,600 Speaker 6: Sometimes you can walk away, you see that, but not always, 801 00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:21,520 Speaker 6: you see that. 802 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:26,440 Speaker 1: Right, especially if it's your supervisor, your boss. I get it, 803 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:28,960 Speaker 1: But hold up through right there, right, a man.

It's not necessarily it's 829 00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 6: not hardwired in our nervous system. And the problem is 830 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:48,680 Speaker 6: that people have been given wrong information about stress, beginning 831 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 6: with the belief in stressors.

But let me just share this with the 879 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:21,600 Speaker 1: audience first. If you would like a mini reading of 880 00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:24,719 Speaker 1: what's twenty twenty six having store for you, just give 881 00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:27,000 Speaker 1: us a call at eight hundred four or five zero 882 00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:30,520 Speaker 1: seventy eight seventy six, and priests provide us with your 883 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:32,560 Speaker 1: birth name, not the name, not your pet name, that 884 00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,400 Speaker 1: what they call you or you, but what's on your 885 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:38,680 Speaker 1: birth certificate, that name and your data birth is. That's 886 00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 1: how it works, correct. 887 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:44,440 Speaker 7: Yes, But what I do is I do the Chaldean system. 888 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:48,640 Speaker 7: There two systems called quickly. One, the Pythagoran system says 889 00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:51,920 Speaker 7: you take the name given at birth on the birth certificate. 890 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:55,759 Speaker 7: I like the Chaldean systems because it says you take 891 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:58,719 Speaker 7: the name you most known by, so Let's say you 892 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 7: have a person name Willie, and he didn't changes the 893 00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:06,240 Speaker 7: name to William and is now known as William. Therefore 894 00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:09,040 Speaker 7: that is the name I would address him as against. Well, 895 00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 7: Willie was on your birth certificate, but it is the 896 00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:14,800 Speaker 7: name that he's living now an expression through the name William. 897 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:17,320 Speaker 7: So you take the name this most commonly you. So 898 00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:19,320 Speaker 7: it all depends on the school of thought. I do 899 00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:21,280 Speaker 7: the Chaldean system primarily. 900 00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:25,839 Speaker 1: Gotcha. Well, thanks for the clarification.

She's 966 00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:28,840 Speaker 1: born in Harlem, if that makes a difference. 967 00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:30,880 Speaker 7: She's born where. 968 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:33,360 Speaker 1: Harlem, the village of Harlem. 969 00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:36,000 Speaker 7: That's where I'm from. Okay, she would be just what 970 00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:40,200 Speaker 7: I mentioned. Well, she's a Capricorn nine person and last 971 00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:43,960 Speaker 7: year was very very important for her because twenty twenty five, 972 00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:46,279 Speaker 7: the year we just left, adds up to a nine. 973 00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:49,359 Speaker 7: In other words, two plus zero plus two plus five 974 00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:52,920 Speaker 7: is nine. And so since Patricia is born on the 975 00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:55,920 Speaker 7: twenty seven to two plus seven is nine, it should 976 00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:58,279 Speaker 7: have been very interesting in terms of being a very 977 00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:03,000 Speaker 7: busy a year for her, a year that affected her name, 978 00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:06,879 Speaker 7: her reputation, her goodwill. But this year coming up as 979 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:10,040 Speaker 7: we start twenty twenty six, it tells me that this 980 00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:13,000 Speaker 7: is her year to get herself more structured, more organized, 981 00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:16,239 Speaker 7: have a plan or blueprint of how she's willing to 982 00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:19,439 Speaker 7: carry on her life. She's also the kind of person 983 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:21,840 Speaker 7: that gets along better with the males than the females. 984 00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 7: Will be very honest with you, and she also doesn't 985 00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:27,759 Speaker 7: take order as well too. She's normally very direct, not 986 00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:30,440 Speaker 7: in a mean way, but in a way that's very honest, 987 00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:34,000 Speaker 7: so everybody knows where she stands. She don't mince words, 988 00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 7: that's the most part. And she's very very intelligent too, 989 00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:42,080 Speaker 7: and she's also very forceful. She normally has ways about 990 00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:45,959 Speaker 7: her that makes her a standout and a natural leader. 991 00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:49,399 Speaker 7: Her key numbers are always the nine, eight, and six, 992 00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:53,560 Speaker 7: and her best days are always on a Tuesday, a Saturday, 993 00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:55,799 Speaker 7: and a Friday, in that order. 994 00:54:57,480 --> 00:54:59,719 Speaker 1: Gotcha, you let me have to top down family, I guess, 995 00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:03,879 Speaker 1: Lord Strayhorn, if you like a many energy chart reading 996 00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:06,439 Speaker 1: of what's twenty twenty six housing store for you, reach 997 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:08,439 Speaker 1: out to us at eight hundred four or five zero 998 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 1: seventy six eighty seven seventy six.

I was born in Detroit, but 1003 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:28,440 Speaker 7: I stay in Baltimore, Maryland. My birthday is April thirteenth, 1004 00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:32,799 Speaker 7: nineteen sixty four. Okay, it tells me You've always been 1005 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:35,480 Speaker 7: a man show that likes to be different, Alan, And 1006 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:37,560 Speaker 7: this is why times do no fault of be own. 1007 00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,040 Speaker 7: You will have secret enemies because you like to think 1008 00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:43,200 Speaker 7: outside the box. You have never been normal, which is 1009 00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:46,160 Speaker 7: not a bad thing because most geniuses are not considered 1010 00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 7: normal until they make the history books years later up 1011 00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:52,319 Speaker 7: the road or decades later up the road to find out, 1012 00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:54,960 Speaker 7: you know what, this guy was really ahead of his time. Well, 1013 00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:58,600 Speaker 7: you kind of that way. You're sensitive, You know people, 1014 00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:01,080 Speaker 7: but you have very few friends. If I ask the 1015 00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:03,680 Speaker 7: number of friends you have on one hand, you still 1016 00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:06,480 Speaker 7: have a finger or two left over. Because you like 1017 00:56:06,560 --> 00:56:08,959 Speaker 7: your own privacy. You like to stay under the radar 1018 00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:11,800 Speaker 7: for the most part, and you like to think outside 1019 00:56:11,880 --> 00:56:14,880 Speaker 7: the box. So if everybody's doing something one way, you 1020 00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:17,279 Speaker 7: will do it another way. You would do well in 1021 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 7: the mechanical mathematical sciences, computers, technologies, good with your hands 1022 00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:24,719 Speaker 7: and things like that, and this particular year that we 1023 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:26,960 Speaker 7: just left for the year we just left with twenty 1024 00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:30,359 Speaker 7: twenty five has been a year where you've been doing 1025 00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:33,200 Speaker 7: a lot of growing up, reconnected with your past. But 1026 00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:36,080 Speaker 7: now this year that we've entered for twenty twenty six, 1027 00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:39,600 Speaker 7: it indicates that now you're ready to fulfill some dreams 1028 00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:42,080 Speaker 7: and you already and you're ready to cut some losses. 1029 00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:44,920 Speaker 7: When you started backing around late September October of last 1030 00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:47,839 Speaker 7: year where you say, you know what, Alan, I don't 1031 00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:50,239 Speaker 7: need this, I don't need that, and you might have 1032 00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:52,520 Speaker 7: looked at somebody and says, you know what, I don't 1033 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:56,600 Speaker 7: need you either. Your key or angelic numbers are always 1034 00:56:56,719 --> 00:56:59,600 Speaker 7: the four, one, and nine, while Sundays and Tuesdays are 1035 00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 7: always your best stage without exception. 1036 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:05,520 Speaker 1: Does that sound about right for you, Allan? 1037 00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:08,560 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's about right here on point. 1038 00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:11,360 Speaker 1: Let me ask you that, Thank you, Allan. Let me 1039 00:57:11,400 --> 00:57:13,600 Speaker 1: ask you this, Lloyd, does it make a difference how 1040 00:57:13,640 --> 00:57:15,840 Speaker 1: he spells his name? Alan spells his name a L 1041 00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 1: l E N. I think that's what Kevin wrote. What 1042 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:21,360 Speaker 1: about An Allen who spells his name A la n? 1043 00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 1: Because I know some Allen's who's spelled the name that 1044 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:23,760 Speaker 1: way as well. 1045 00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:27,840 Speaker 7: You know, Carl. That's an excellent question because names can 1046 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:30,840 Speaker 7: be spelled different ways. For the name Catherine, for example, 1047 00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:34,720 Speaker 7: that spelled twenty four different ways. And see in numerology. 1048 00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:37,240 Speaker 7: Right now, I'm dealing with the birthday. That tells me 1049 00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:40,360 Speaker 7: why they are here, what they're here to learn and master. 1050 00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:43,600 Speaker 7: But the name tells me what you know. So, for example, 1051 00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:46,480 Speaker 7: if I take your name Carl, c A R L, 1052 00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:50,040 Speaker 7: numerically under the Caldeian system, that adds up to a nine. 1053 00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 7: So nines are bright, engaging, they're forceful, they like to 1054 00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:56,479 Speaker 7: be the massive, their shift, the captain of their faith, 1055 00:57:56,600 --> 00:58:00,840 Speaker 7: determine their own destiny. They're normally inspirational. Motivation will bring 1056 00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:03,320 Speaker 7: out the best in people. And it tells me there's 1057 00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:05,560 Speaker 7: a high than average chance one of your parents could 1058 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:09,320 Speaker 7: have either been in Aries or Leo or Scorpio, or 1059 00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:12,120 Speaker 7: born on the nineteen eighteenth or twenty seventh. So the 1060 00:58:12,240 --> 00:58:16,080 Speaker 7: name tells a whole lot about a person. But because 1061 00:58:16,200 --> 00:58:19,560 Speaker 7: of the show and whatnot, I'm focusing on the birthday. 1062 00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:21,720 Speaker 7: If there's some names I can call off the top, 1063 00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:25,000 Speaker 7: I'll do that, but that is it. The name tells 1064 00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:27,439 Speaker 7: me what you know, but it is your birthday tells 1065 00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:29,920 Speaker 7: me why you're here, what you're here to learn over 1066 00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:33,959 Speaker 7: this lifetime. That's why I tell people what their most 1067 00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:37,160 Speaker 7: important numbers are than their best day to carry out 1068 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:40,320 Speaker 7: their best plans and everything, and it's even the months 1069 00:58:40,360 --> 00:58:42,400 Speaker 7: and the ages in the years. There's a whole lot 1070 00:58:42,520 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 7: more to this. 1071 00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:48,880 Speaker 1: Gotcha fifteen after the topic, I got another tweet question 1072 00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:54,840 Speaker 1: for you, Linda l I Nda ten thirty one, nineteen 1073 00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:55,439 Speaker 1: fifty six. 1074 00:58:56,480 --> 00:58:58,800 Speaker 7: Okay, Well, first of all, the name Linda off the 1075 00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:02,600 Speaker 7: top adds up to A under the Calbean system, so 1076 00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:04,920 Speaker 7: it tells me Linda is the kind of person that 1077 00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:07,520 Speaker 7: works well under pressure. She doesn't like people that are 1078 00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:10,840 Speaker 7: slow dulla boring. She's the kind of person that likes 1079 00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:15,240 Speaker 7: a lot of variety. But she is a Scorpio four person. 1080 00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:18,600 Speaker 7: So she's a water signed with an air number. So 1081 00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:22,000 Speaker 7: the water represents the sensitive side of her. The air 1082 00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:26,280 Speaker 7: number represents that intelligent intellect about her, where logic and 1083 00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:29,680 Speaker 7: whatnot comes into plane. It also indicates she's kind of 1084 00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:33,320 Speaker 7: different in her own way, style, or form. I would 1085 00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:36,439 Speaker 7: say to know Linda is to love Linda. And last 1086 00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:39,640 Speaker 7: year was a year that brought about some fundamental changes, 1087 00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:42,280 Speaker 7: But this year, says that she's going to have to 1088 00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:46,840 Speaker 7: make some adjustments in terms of relationships, her living space, 1089 00:59:47,040 --> 00:59:48,680 Speaker 7: and things of that nature. But this would be a 1090 00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:50,840 Speaker 7: good year for her to go back to school. Well, 1091 00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:53,440 Speaker 7: then likely she's probably changed her hair, which she did 1092 00:59:53,520 --> 00:59:57,320 Speaker 7: probably just before her birthday, which she now wears presently. 1093 00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:00,800 Speaker 7: And she's also a kind of a person's very sensitive 1094 01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:03,720 Speaker 7: high skung and he's wounded and their feelings, although she 1095 01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:08,120 Speaker 7: masks it very well now. Her angelic numbers are the four, one, 1096 01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:11,800 Speaker 7: and nine, and Sundays along with Tuesdays are always your 1097 01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:13,080 Speaker 7: best stage without exception. 1098 01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:16,200 Speaker 1: Gotcha hold that thought right there. We got to step 1099 01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:17,800 Speaker 1: aside for a few moments.

You're the person that the more 1125 01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:34,440 Speaker 7: that gets to know you, the more they love you. 1126 01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:37,640 Speaker 7: You tend to be very sensitive, although people may not 1127 01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:41,960 Speaker 7: realize that last year that we just left you went 1128 01:01:42,040 --> 01:01:45,160 Speaker 7: through some adjustment matters that effected your home, your family, 1129 01:01:45,240 --> 01:01:49,000 Speaker 7: your relationships and things of that nature. And right now, 1130 01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:52,160 Speaker 7: this particularly a year for twenty twenty six, you're into 1131 01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:55,400 Speaker 7: what is called the cycle that governs the law of attraction. 1132 01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 7: In other words, you're in a seven personal year. And 1133 01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:00,360 Speaker 7: how I did it was I took Chevyuary or the 1134 01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:05,080 Speaker 7: fourth and added simply to twenty twenty six. These three 1135 01:02:05,200 --> 01:02:07,560 Speaker 7: elements the month and day you're born, along with the 1136 01:02:07,640 --> 01:02:09,400 Speaker 7: year I want to know about, which is right now 1137 01:02:09,520 --> 01:02:11,360 Speaker 7: says you're in a seven. So this is your year 1138 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:13,960 Speaker 7: to search. This is your year to be a seeker 1139 01:02:13,960 --> 01:02:17,800 Speaker 7: of wisdom and knowledge and understanding. You should get into meditation. 1140 01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:20,120 Speaker 7: You're going to want to get away from the noise, 1141 01:02:20,280 --> 01:02:23,479 Speaker 7: the confusion, the drama. You'll be having some what to costs, 1142 01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:26,760 Speaker 7: some very strange or interesting dreams or things of that nature. 1143 01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:30,480 Speaker 7: And you're very unconventional in your own way anyway. So 1144 01:02:30,840 --> 01:02:33,280 Speaker 7: to know you is to love you. And because of 1145 01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:38,520 Speaker 7: you either encounter jealousy, envy, or insecurity. That's not your problem, 1146 01:02:38,560 --> 01:02:41,000 Speaker 7: but you can never understand in the workplace. But that's 1147 01:02:41,080 --> 01:02:43,760 Speaker 7: because you've always been the kind of person who's been 1148 01:02:43,880 --> 01:02:46,680 Speaker 7: very unique in your approach to a situation. And as 1149 01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:49,960 Speaker 7: I said, like to really think in an unconventional after 1150 01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 7: box sort of way.

Daryl, 1279 01:09:46,600 --> 01:09:49,040 Speaker 14: You've always been a person that has never taken order 1280 01:09:49,040 --> 01:09:52,000 Speaker 14: as well, and in fact, coming up as a young child, 1281 01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:53,920 Speaker 14: you always hung around the older guys. 1282 01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:56,120 Speaker 7: So when you in your teens, they were in their twenties. 1283 01:09:56,160 --> 01:09:58,080 Speaker 7: When you're in your twenties, they was in their thirties 1284 01:09:58,120 --> 01:10:01,960 Speaker 7: and forties. You always wanted to gather information from the eldest, 1285 01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:04,479 Speaker 7: so to speak, to learn from some of the mistakes 1286 01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:07,280 Speaker 7: they've made, so you don't make the same mistakes from 1287 01:10:07,360 --> 01:10:10,479 Speaker 7: your birthday. Actually, Daryl, I wouldn't be surprised growing up 1288 01:10:10,479 --> 01:10:12,639 Speaker 7: if you didn't want to be a lawyer or a doctor, 1289 01:10:12,800 --> 01:10:15,960 Speaker 7: or a scientist or an entrepreneur. But everything about your 1290 01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:18,960 Speaker 7: birthday says you do not take orders at all, sir. 1291 01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:21,640 Speaker 7: So if you run your own business, that would not 1292 01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:25,000 Speaker 7: surprise me. If you have been a manager or supervisor 1293 01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:27,880 Speaker 7: or director, that would not surprise me. You have very 1294 01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:33,559 Speaker 7: sensitive eyes to sunlight, so therefore I know you probably 1295 01:10:33,560 --> 01:10:35,600 Speaker 7: either wear glasses and your right eyes a little bit 1296 01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:38,599 Speaker 7: more sensitive than your left eye. You're also the kind 1297 01:10:38,640 --> 01:10:42,160 Speaker 7: of person too, that speaks your truth. You don't play 1298 01:10:42,560 --> 01:10:44,280 Speaker 7: and every now and then you have to be concerned 1299 01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:47,960 Speaker 7: about your lower back, heart palpitations, or regular blood circulations 1300 01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:51,080 Speaker 7: from time to time. The year that you're entering into 1301 01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:54,720 Speaker 7: the twenty twenty six is favorable because twenty twenty six 1302 01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:57,679 Speaker 7: adds to a ten, and you happen to be born 1303 01:10:57,840 --> 01:11:00,719 Speaker 7: on a ten. But you're in a sense that tells 1304 01:11:00,760 --> 01:11:04,960 Speaker 7: me about to make a transition, either with relationships, transitions 1305 01:11:05,040 --> 01:11:08,320 Speaker 7: at the workplace, or transitions in your home. Either way. 1306 01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:11,120 Speaker 7: And then, by the way, it would be very much 1307 01:11:11,200 --> 01:11:13,240 Speaker 7: to your advantage if you can be more conscious of 1308 01:11:13,320 --> 01:11:18,280 Speaker 7: your diets as you entered this year of twenty twenty six, 1309 01:11:18,600 --> 01:11:21,120 Speaker 7: and by the way, as most men every now and then, 1310 01:11:21,200 --> 01:11:23,639 Speaker 7: you should get a prostate exam. You know what I'm saying, 1311 01:11:23,680 --> 01:11:26,320 Speaker 7: to make sure everything is cool. But you're very honest, 1312 01:11:26,520 --> 01:11:28,479 Speaker 7: very direct, and this is why people think you're cold, 1313 01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:30,880 Speaker 7: but you're not. But your key numbers, by the way, 1314 01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:34,120 Speaker 7: are the one, four, and five and Sundays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, 1315 01:11:34,200 --> 01:11:38,040 Speaker 7: or your best days in that order. All right, Oh, 1316 01:11:38,360 --> 01:11:40,439 Speaker 7: d I thank you very much. That's pretty accurate. 1317 01:11:41,520 --> 01:11:45,280 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this though, thanks now, lord, if 1318 01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:49,040 Speaker 1: a doll with the same name and the same birthday, 1319 01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:51,240 Speaker 1: would would the reading be the same. 1320 01:11:52,640 --> 01:11:55,240 Speaker 7: To a greater or less a degree, Because this child 1321 01:11:55,360 --> 01:11:58,160 Speaker 7: is born in nineteen sixty one, you might have another 1322 01:11:58,280 --> 01:12:01,080 Speaker 7: dow born in nineteen ninety eight, which changed the whole 1323 01:12:01,160 --> 01:12:04,800 Speaker 7: complexion of things. By the way, Darwell, for example, in 1324 01:12:04,920 --> 01:12:07,240 Speaker 7: this case, might be a certain age to reflex one 1325 01:12:07,320 --> 01:12:10,360 Speaker 7: of his key numbers, where another person born like say 1326 01:12:10,400 --> 01:12:14,040 Speaker 7: in nineteen fifty eight, would have a totally different energy. 1327 01:12:14,960 --> 01:12:18,840 Speaker 7: But Jude, that's a good question, because it's very rare 1328 01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:21,360 Speaker 7: that if I have two Darls born the same month, 1329 01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:24,519 Speaker 7: same day, same year, But it is quite possible. But 1330 01:12:24,680 --> 01:12:26,920 Speaker 7: yet I will read them differently. I can't explain it. 1331 01:12:27,080 --> 01:12:28,360 Speaker 7: I'll read them totally different. 1332 01:12:29,400 --> 01:12:33,759 Speaker 1: And that goes saying the same Hian twins. 1333 01:12:35,040 --> 01:12:37,280 Speaker 7: Oh yeah, I love reading twins because the names are 1334 01:12:37,320 --> 01:12:39,720 Speaker 7: not spelled the same. So for example, you can have 1335 01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:43,479 Speaker 7: a Brian b r ya N and another Brian b 1336 01:12:43,840 --> 01:12:47,240 Speaker 7: r I A N, so that would be spelled somewhat 1337 01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:50,160 Speaker 7: different sort of speed, like you have the word Allen 1338 01:12:50,320 --> 01:12:53,720 Speaker 7: a L A N and then a L L E N, 1339 01:12:53,880 --> 01:12:57,880 Speaker 7: because each letter has a numerical frequency attached to it, 1340 01:12:58,479 --> 01:13:01,080 Speaker 7: and that would explain why one Allen would be totally 1341 01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:03,360 Speaker 7: different than another Alan, even though they could be born 1342 01:13:03,439 --> 01:13:07,519 Speaker 7: on the same month, day and year. In fact, got it? 1343 01:13:07,920 --> 01:13:09,559 Speaker 7: Twenty is great question? 1344 01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:12,080 Speaker 1: Twenty twenty seven minutes away from the top they with 1345 01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:15,160 Speaker 1: Lord Strayhorn.

When they're coming 1392 01:15:42,560 --> 01:15:45,160 Speaker 7: back where they're going, why they're going to say how long? 1393 01:15:45,600 --> 01:15:48,479 Speaker 7: That doesn't work with them.

If 1394 01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:51,519 Speaker 7: everybody's doing something one way, Harriet bless us, so it's 1395 01:15:51,560 --> 01:15:54,599 Speaker 7: definitely going to be doing it totally totally different. Her 1396 01:15:54,680 --> 01:15:56,719 Speaker 7: hair may be different from the rest of her girlfriends, 1397 01:15:56,760 --> 01:15:59,439 Speaker 7: her style may be dress of a style of dress 1398 01:15:59,479 --> 01:16:01,400 Speaker 7: may be different from the rest of her friends. But 1399 01:16:01,560 --> 01:16:04,360 Speaker 7: she's a standout. There is no question about it. That 1400 01:16:04,560 --> 01:16:06,840 Speaker 7: is how And she doesn't do it to just do 1401 01:16:06,960 --> 01:16:09,360 Speaker 7: it to do it.

I would say what friends she has, because 1404 01:16:15,520 --> 01:16:17,519 Speaker 7: she knows people, but when it comes to the list 1405 01:16:17,600 --> 01:16:20,080 Speaker 7: of friends, it's a very short list.

But she's the kind of person 1409 01:16:28,520 --> 01:16:30,920 Speaker 7: that's very unique and she has to weigh with numbers. 1410 01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:32,720 Speaker 7: She has to wait with her hands. She has a 1411 01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:35,360 Speaker 7: way of looking at things from and she would do 1412 01:16:35,439 --> 01:16:39,720 Speaker 7: well in the world of electronics, communications, import exports to 1413 01:16:39,760 --> 01:16:43,280 Speaker 7: stock exchange.

Did you say 1848 01:39:34,640 --> 01:39:40,120 Speaker 7: October twenty second, eighteen forty five, yes, sir? Okay. Well, 1849 01:39:40,200 --> 01:39:42,679 Speaker 7: first of all, the name James tells me a person 1850 01:39:42,880 --> 01:39:43,200 Speaker 7: that have. 1851 01:39:43,280 --> 01:39:44,479 Speaker 4: The love of literature. 1852 01:39:44,760 --> 01:39:47,800 Speaker 7: Because the name James, as of the fourteen to five 1853 01:39:48,400 --> 01:39:52,400 Speaker 7: five represents people who are multifaceted, multi talented, multi dimensional. 1854 01:39:52,880 --> 01:39:56,479 Speaker 7: It also indicates literary people. People who are very literary 1855 01:39:56,840 --> 01:39:59,559 Speaker 7: or have a love of books of writers have this name, 1856 01:39:59,640 --> 01:40:02,120 Speaker 7: which is five. It also tells you there's a strong 1857 01:40:02,240 --> 01:40:05,200 Speaker 7: possibility to James, that one of your parents could have 1858 01:40:05,360 --> 01:40:09,400 Speaker 7: either been a Virgo or Gemini or born on the fifth, 1859 01:40:09,479 --> 01:40:12,560 Speaker 7: the sixth, the fourteenth to fifteenth to twenty third, or 1860 01:40:12,600 --> 01:40:14,920 Speaker 7: the twenty fourth of the month. But when I look 1861 01:40:14,960 --> 01:40:18,719 Speaker 7: at your birthday, it tells me born October the twenty second, 1862 01:40:18,760 --> 01:40:21,360 Speaker 7: that you bought the line between Leo, I mean, excuse me, 1863 01:40:21,520 --> 01:40:26,360 Speaker 7: Libra and Scorpio. But whether it is that, it indicates 1864 01:40:26,400 --> 01:40:29,200 Speaker 7: that you're a person that's always been very unique, been 1865 01:40:29,400 --> 01:40:33,080 Speaker 7: very different. Four it's called the revolutionary number, and you've 1866 01:40:33,160 --> 01:40:37,599 Speaker 7: certainly expressed that through your professorship, your life's experience as 1867 01:40:37,600 --> 01:40:40,439 Speaker 7: a historian and whatnot. And it tells me yet, if 1868 01:40:40,479 --> 01:40:43,599 Speaker 7: people really got to know you, James small deep down, 1869 01:40:43,680 --> 01:40:44,679 Speaker 7: you're very sensitive. 1870 01:40:44,720 --> 01:40:44,920 Speaker 13: God. 1871 01:40:45,000 --> 01:40:47,479 Speaker 7: They prefer to be your own best company.

Even 2000 01:47:43,640 --> 01:47:49,320 Speaker 4: after he left the presidency, we would appear at different 2001 01:47:49,400 --> 01:47:53,280 Speaker 4: conferences around the world together in Bermuda and the Bahamas, 2002 01:47:53,360 --> 01:47:58,160 Speaker 4: in the UK, and he had a method of speaking 2003 01:47:59,160 --> 01:48:01,639 Speaker 4: and he would ship this topic and go off into 2004 01:48:01,720 --> 01:48:05,680 Speaker 4: these heavy emotional space. So I quietly criticized him on 2005 01:48:05,800 --> 01:48:10,559 Speaker 4: that while we were at a conference in the Bermuda. 2006 01:48:11,439 --> 01:48:13,400 Speaker 4: And so the next year we were at a conference 2007 01:48:13,560 --> 01:48:16,639 Speaker 4: in the Bahamas and I'm sitting having breakfast by myself 2008 01:48:16,720 --> 01:48:19,680 Speaker 4: in the lobby and here comes to President with a 2009 01:48:20,200 --> 01:48:22,720 Speaker 4: yellow pat in one hand and a bunch of pensils 2010 01:48:22,760 --> 01:48:24,720 Speaker 4: in the other hand, and he said, oh, you know 2011 01:48:24,800 --> 01:48:29,200 Speaker 4: how to write speeches, Help me write this speech.

And we 2044 01:49:56,800 --> 01:50:01,360 Speaker 4: developed a trust in one another and it lasted through 2045 01:50:01,400 --> 01:50:04,280 Speaker 4: a lot of experience in the country. There was one 2046 01:50:04,320 --> 01:50:07,280 Speaker 4: occasion a young man I'm not going to call his 2047 01:50:07,439 --> 01:50:09,360 Speaker 4: name because I got to like him too.

Said, I thought 2053 01:50:22,360 --> 01:50:25,040 Speaker 4: this was my best little buddy. And one night the 2054 01:50:25,120 --> 01:50:27,640 Speaker 4: president sent two people to my hotel to get me 2055 01:50:27,760 --> 01:50:30,680 Speaker 4: and sister Leah to come to a meeting with him 2056 01:50:31,000 --> 01:50:35,400 Speaker 4: and go at this little spot house out in the suburbs. 2057 01:50:36,360 --> 01:50:39,840 Speaker 4: And I'm scared because I thinking I'm in trouble. And 2058 01:50:40,320 --> 01:50:43,040 Speaker 4: he asked me who was my new friend, and I'm 2059 01:50:43,080 --> 01:50:45,360 Speaker 4: not trying to who my new friend? And when I 2060 01:50:45,479 --> 01:50:48,400 Speaker 4: told him the only new friends I had was this 2061 01:50:48,560 --> 01:50:51,080 Speaker 4: one brother, and he says, well, do you know who 2062 01:50:51,120 --> 01:50:53,360 Speaker 4: he is. I said, yeah, he's the head of US 2063 01:50:54,000 --> 01:50:56,240 Speaker 4: aid he said, yes, he's also the. 2064 01:50:56,280 --> 01:50:59,439 Speaker 7: CIA station chief, Like, oh my god. 2065 01:51:00,240 --> 01:51:04,000 Speaker 4: And so when I confronted the brother later at the embassy, 2066 01:51:04,720 --> 01:51:06,680 Speaker 4: you know, first he denied it, and then he you know, 2067 01:51:06,800 --> 01:51:08,320 Speaker 4: he accepted what his role was. 2068 01:51:08,400 --> 01:51:09,960 Speaker 7: Then my thing was, you can. 2069 01:51:09,840 --> 01:51:12,200 Speaker 4: Work for the government any capacity you want, but you 2070 01:51:12,360 --> 01:51:14,720 Speaker 4: can't spy on me as my friend.

And 2075 01:51:28,520 --> 01:51:32,759 Speaker 4: even today I'm still in a relationship with his family. 2076 01:51:32,920 --> 01:51:38,240 Speaker 4: And when I was in the Ghana a few months ago, 2077 01:51:38,600 --> 01:51:41,240 Speaker 4: I met with his daughter, the eldest, who was a 2078 01:51:41,320 --> 01:51:44,920 Speaker 4: member of parliament, and I saw a medical doctor and 2079 01:51:45,120 --> 01:51:49,880 Speaker 4: she's working to get his memoirs published and so we 2080 01:51:50,040 --> 01:51:54,519 Speaker 4: discussed how we could go forward with that. Hopefully we're 2081 01:51:54,640 --> 01:51:56,880 Speaker 4: able to do it over the next year. 2082 01:51:57,520 --> 01:52:00,920 Speaker 7: I put together some scholars from this side to help 2083 01:52:01,080 --> 01:52:01,800 Speaker 7: with that work. 2084 01:52:03,680 --> 01:52:07,400 Speaker 1: Well sure, my and you know my uh, I guess 2085 01:52:07,439 --> 01:52:11,160 Speaker 1: connection with that with with the Flight Lieutenant Jerry Wallings 2086 01:52:11,880 --> 01:52:15,120 Speaker 1: as president, he came on the talk show we did 2087 01:52:15,160 --> 01:52:16,920 Speaker 1: in l A start at four o'clock in the morning, 2088 01:52:17,000 --> 01:52:19,160 Speaker 1: you know, so you had to get up at four 2089 01:52:19,840 --> 01:52:22,599 Speaker 1: and the State Department wanted to They wanted the list 2090 01:52:22,680 --> 01:52:25,000 Speaker 1: of all the employees and the social security numbers.

So I just want to 2107 01:53:10,720 --> 01:53:12,560 Speaker 1: share that with the audience because sometimes you don't know 2108 01:53:12,920 --> 01:53:15,519 Speaker 1: when we have these world leaders on the program what 2109 01:53:15,880 --> 01:53:19,360 Speaker 1: goes down. But after that, his wife, you know, every year, 2110 01:53:19,439 --> 01:53:21,120 Speaker 1: she's got a lot of friends in LA, so every 2111 01:53:21,160 --> 01:53:22,920 Speaker 1: time she come to LA, she'd always stop by the 2112 01:53:22,960 --> 01:53:24,720 Speaker 1: station and we put her on and they were talking 2113 01:53:24,720 --> 01:53:26,599 Speaker 1: about four o'clock in the morning and all I guess 2114 01:53:26,720 --> 01:53:28,640 Speaker 1: came in before.

And I told the sisters, 2122 01:53:51,600 --> 01:53:53,719 Speaker 1: you know, it's four o'clock in the morning. She's elderly. 2123 01:53:53,840 --> 01:53:56,240 Speaker 1: She we'll talk to her on the phone, she insisted. 2124 01:53:56,680 --> 01:54:02,840 Speaker 1: She says, no, I'm coming to the student. Yes, I know, 2125 01:54:02,880 --> 01:54:05,080 Speaker 1: we're going down a rabbit hole because she she's she's 2126 01:54:05,360 --> 01:54:08,240 Speaker 1: just more than Eliz Muhammad's wife or ex wife of 2127 01:54:08,280 --> 01:54:11,840 Speaker 1: your former wife. She's also a writer a journalist as well. 2128 01:54:12,000 --> 01:54:14,280 Speaker 1: So she wanted to share some of those thoughts with us. 2129 01:54:14,360 --> 01:54:16,320 Speaker 1: But you know, I'm going into a tangent now. But yeah, 2130 01:54:16,400 --> 01:54:19,599 Speaker 1: but back to and he says he always a flight 2131 01:54:19,760 --> 01:54:22,320 Speaker 1: left tenant, and I was I thought it was lieutenant. 2132 01:54:22,720 --> 01:54:26,640 Speaker 1: That's a British thing, a lieutenant, right, And instead of 2133 01:54:26,720 --> 01:54:29,320 Speaker 1: calling president and just call me flight a flight lieutenant 2134 01:54:29,520 --> 01:54:33,160 Speaker 1: Jerry Rawlings or mister Rawlings on the air. But he 2135 01:54:33,320 --> 01:54:35,880 Speaker 1: was an extraordinary fellow man. He was. He was real 2136 01:54:35,960 --> 01:54:38,520 Speaker 1: deep too. I don't think people know that part of him. 2137 01:54:38,560 --> 01:54:41,600 Speaker 1: Though professional. She had more interchange with him than I. 2138 01:54:41,640 --> 01:54:44,040 Speaker 7: Did, right, you know. 2139 01:54:44,200 --> 01:54:46,080 Speaker 4: Then I would take my group, you know, I'd go 2140 01:54:46,160 --> 01:54:50,000 Speaker 4: to Ghana in Jeffries every summer for forty years with 2141 01:54:50,160 --> 01:54:52,600 Speaker 4: the tour group, and we would go by his house 2142 01:54:52,680 --> 01:54:55,680 Speaker 4: even after he left the presidency, and he would greet 2143 01:54:56,000 --> 01:54:59,520 Speaker 4: every single person, invite them in, sit talk with them, 2144 01:54:59,600 --> 01:55:02,400 Speaker 4: take a picture with every single person. But there's twenty 2145 01:55:02,520 --> 01:55:05,200 Speaker 4: thirty forty people. And then he would like the group 2146 01:55:05,240 --> 01:55:08,960 Speaker 4: pitchers on the front step. And he had a foundation. 2147 01:55:09,200 --> 01:55:12,120 Speaker 4: He was working with multiple schools, so we would take 2148 01:55:12,160 --> 01:55:14,879 Speaker 4: gifts for those schools and support money for the schools 2149 01:55:15,760 --> 01:55:18,160 Speaker 4: that he was working with. But the man had an 2150 01:55:18,240 --> 01:55:23,000 Speaker 4: extraordinary Pan African consciousness, you know, and he had this 2151 01:55:23,160 --> 01:55:28,920 Speaker 4: extraordinary love for Africa that you rarely see expressed by leaders, 2152 01:55:29,000 --> 01:55:33,080 Speaker 4: and he would express it. There was no president in 2153 01:55:33,160 --> 01:55:38,920 Speaker 4: the history that took over a country militarily twice and 2154 01:55:39,080 --> 01:55:42,080 Speaker 4: gave it back to the people twice. He gave it 2155 01:55:42,200 --> 01:55:45,080 Speaker 4: back the first time and they managed to some critical 2156 01:55:45,200 --> 01:55:49,080 Speaker 4: crises and then they had to take the government again, 2157 01:55:49,920 --> 01:55:52,240 Speaker 4: and there were some people who got killed, and yet 2158 01:55:52,320 --> 01:55:54,840 Speaker 4: it was probably one of the most bloodless revolution that 2159 01:55:54,960 --> 01:55:58,480 Speaker 4: ever took place in Africa. But some people did die. 2160 01:55:58,560 --> 01:56:01,680 Speaker 4: And the process that's happened doing these kinds of political 2161 01:56:02,120 --> 01:56:05,600 Speaker 4: revolutionary exchange, and for that people have held them to 2162 01:56:05,760 --> 01:56:11,000 Speaker 4: task until he left. But the core thing about this man, 2163 01:56:12,160 --> 01:56:16,240 Speaker 4: he was able to reinstitute much of what Kwam and 2164 01:56:16,320 --> 01:56:21,240 Speaker 4: Krumer had put in place before the CIA overthrew the 2165 01:56:21,360 --> 01:56:25,720 Speaker 4: n Krumer government and he brought the country back to 2166 01:56:25,920 --> 01:56:32,880 Speaker 4: an electorial governmental process. Ran for president, won twice, set 2167 01:56:33,000 --> 01:56:36,560 Speaker 4: time limits on himself, and stepped down when his time 2168 01:56:36,640 --> 01:56:39,400 Speaker 4: limit was up, and never tried to run for office again. 2169 01:56:40,840 --> 01:56:41,840 Speaker 7: I mean that's an. 2170 01:56:41,760 --> 01:56:47,560 Speaker 4: Extra but stayed politically engaged in the country with both parties. 2171 01:56:48,360 --> 01:56:51,480 Speaker 4: Whoever president was in there he would be an advisor 2172 01:56:51,560 --> 01:56:55,440 Speaker 4: to them. It was just an extraordinary young man. And 2173 01:56:56,000 --> 01:56:58,920 Speaker 4: you know, we were together but two months before he 2174 01:56:59,080 --> 01:57:05,280 Speaker 4: passed from and he was finishing the last chapter in 2175 01:57:05,400 --> 01:57:09,040 Speaker 4: his memoirs and he told me, he says, small. 2176 01:57:09,880 --> 01:57:11,200 Speaker 7: I'm telling on everybody. 2177 01:57:13,560 --> 01:57:16,560 Speaker 4: He says, I'm telling on the opposition, and I'm telling 2178 01:57:16,640 --> 01:57:19,440 Speaker 4: on the ones in my party as well. And he says, 2179 01:57:19,440 --> 01:57:21,920 Speaker 4: you know, when I left offices, I left office broke. 2180 01:57:22,960 --> 01:57:25,560 Speaker 4: I never took a penny for my people. Me and 2181 01:57:25,680 --> 01:57:27,920 Speaker 4: my wife had no money. My wife was sick. I 2182 01:57:28,000 --> 01:57:30,760 Speaker 4: couldn't even meet the medical bills. Yes, that's what this 2183 01:57:30,920 --> 01:57:36,280 Speaker 4: man told me. And he says, you know, even my retirement. 2184 01:57:36,360 --> 01:57:37,240 Speaker 7: People had to fight. 2185 01:57:37,320 --> 01:57:39,240 Speaker 4: It took a couple of years before they even gave 2186 01:57:39,360 --> 01:57:44,560 Speaker 4: him his retirement package from the government. But he presevered 2187 01:57:46,080 --> 01:57:50,680 Speaker 4: a strong African personality and he was married to an 2188 01:57:50,840 --> 01:57:57,720 Speaker 4: African queen without equal non account of dogymen. Rollins, who 2189 01:57:57,880 --> 01:58:01,080 Speaker 4: passed a few months ago to ancestry, seemed just the 2190 01:58:01,200 --> 01:58:06,920 Speaker 4: most extraordinary scholar, an extraordinary lady, an extraordinary mother, an 2191 01:58:07,000 --> 01:58:12,080 Speaker 4: extraordinary leader. She developed one of the strongest woman's movement 2192 01:58:12,320 --> 01:58:15,920 Speaker 4: in the country and one of the strongest educational movement 2193 01:58:16,000 --> 01:58:19,920 Speaker 4: in the country, building daycare centers, building schools, getting women 2194 01:58:20,040 --> 01:58:23,680 Speaker 4: involved in politics and electorial politics like no one had 2195 01:58:23,720 --> 01:58:27,240 Speaker 4: done before her. And yet she did it all very quietly. 2196 01:58:29,360 --> 01:58:32,840 Speaker 4: So really learned about the extraordinary people you know. 2197 01:58:32,960 --> 01:58:33,600 Speaker 7: In our world. 2198 01:58:34,280 --> 01:58:36,480 Speaker 1: Twenty five way for Tough the Professor James small As 2199 01:58:36,520 --> 01:58:39,280 Speaker 1: I guess we was discussing former President of Ghana flight 2200 01:58:39,320 --> 01:58:43,880 Speaker 1: Lieutenant Jerry Rawlings and his wife and ancestors. But you 2201 01:58:44,000 --> 01:58:45,920 Speaker 1: told me that he was one of the ones who 2202 01:58:45,960 --> 01:58:48,840 Speaker 1: started back to ghan or the back to Africa movement, 2203 01:58:48,960 --> 01:58:52,440 Speaker 1: not the current administration, to. 2204 01:58:52,520 --> 01:58:55,440 Speaker 4: Be right, In Krumer started it. When in Krumer went 2205 01:58:55,560 --> 01:58:59,960 Speaker 4: back home and became president, he took many African America 2206 01:59:00,560 --> 01:59:03,760 Speaker 4: with him, you know, may Angelo being one wb the boys, 2207 01:59:03,880 --> 01:59:07,800 Speaker 4: being another doctor Lee, who was a dentist. He took 2208 01:59:08,480 --> 01:59:11,360 Speaker 4: hundreds of African Americans went to Ghana to help him 2209 01:59:11,400 --> 01:59:15,280 Speaker 4: build that new government. Now some left after he was overthrown, 2210 01:59:15,360 --> 01:59:17,400 Speaker 4: but I got to meet doctor Lee and many others 2211 01:59:17,440 --> 01:59:21,839 Speaker 4: who stayed there and lived their lives out in Ghana. 2212 01:59:22,440 --> 01:59:25,360 Speaker 7: And it was Rollins that we knew that he came to. 2213 01:59:25,400 --> 01:59:28,560 Speaker 4: America and every city he visited he called for us 2214 01:59:28,680 --> 01:59:32,040 Speaker 4: to return to Ghana and help with the investment and 2215 01:59:32,120 --> 01:59:35,200 Speaker 4: development of that country. And he opened the doors. He 2216 01:59:35,320 --> 01:59:38,000 Speaker 4: made it easier for us to do it. It was 2217 01:59:38,160 --> 01:59:45,720 Speaker 4: Rollins who asked me through Kojo Chikata. I think Chikata 2218 01:59:45,920 --> 01:59:48,920 Speaker 4: was his Minister of Defense. One may say he was 2219 01:59:49,000 --> 01:59:53,400 Speaker 4: the intelligence chief, and I think Kojo was all of 2220 01:59:53,480 --> 01:59:57,680 Speaker 4: that too. On the day when we had the ceremony 2221 01:59:57,760 --> 02:00:00,760 Speaker 4: to remove in Kruma's body from his own villa and 2222 02:00:00,920 --> 02:00:04,800 Speaker 4: bring it to the new mausoleum center they had built 2223 02:00:04,840 --> 02:00:07,440 Speaker 4: to him. We were having lunch on the yacht and 2224 02:00:07,560 --> 02:00:10,760 Speaker 4: I was approached by Koja Takata to do a favor 2225 02:00:11,080 --> 02:00:13,400 Speaker 4: that the president wanted done because they felt that the 2226 02:00:13,560 --> 02:00:17,520 Speaker 4: party did that they would meet too much opposition. And 2227 02:00:17,640 --> 02:00:19,760 Speaker 4: that favor was for me to go on the television 2228 02:00:19,800 --> 02:00:23,480 Speaker 4: and the radio and call for dual citizenship for African 2229 02:00:23,560 --> 02:00:26,840 Speaker 4: Americans in Ghana. So I was the first one to 2230 02:00:26,920 --> 02:00:31,280 Speaker 4: do that under the instructions of the government, and that 2231 02:00:31,520 --> 02:00:34,800 Speaker 4: led to a bill that finally in the second go 2232 02:00:35,080 --> 02:00:39,440 Speaker 4: round came up with the process of first of the 2233 02:00:39,600 --> 02:00:42,880 Speaker 4: right of abode and then the right for dual citizenships 2234 02:00:42,920 --> 02:00:45,640 Speaker 4: being offered. And we've seen a lot of that happen, 2235 02:00:46,320 --> 02:00:49,839 Speaker 4: and so this all comes out of the Rowlins government. 2236 02:00:50,480 --> 02:00:54,200 Speaker 4: And yes, so no one think I was working as 2237 02:00:54,200 --> 02:00:56,640 Speaker 4: an agent another guy. I took no funds, no money 2238 02:00:56,680 --> 02:00:59,600 Speaker 4: of any kind, no favors of any kind for any 2239 02:00:59,680 --> 02:01:02,800 Speaker 4: service us that gauge to Ghana. I gave that service 2240 02:01:02,880 --> 02:01:06,880 Speaker 4: as an African based on my Pan African understanding. 2241 02:01:08,600 --> 02:01:10,400 Speaker 1: All right, hold on the right there, Professor Small, we 2242 02:01:10,480 --> 02:01:11,840 Speaker 1: gotta take a short break.

I just wanted to just to 2450 02:12:59,120 --> 02:13:01,680 Speaker 16: just to reach to you as as an elder, and 2451 02:13:02,240 --> 02:13:05,040 Speaker 16: I want to ask this question of you. I was 2452 02:13:05,120 --> 02:13:07,520 Speaker 16: reading this book about the seventy two convention that was 2453 02:13:07,560 --> 02:13:11,760 Speaker 16: held in Gary, Indiana and effort to put forward a 2454 02:13:11,840 --> 02:13:16,160 Speaker 16: black agenda, and it's been my observation that since then, 2455 02:13:16,880 --> 02:13:20,600 Speaker 16: we haven't really seriously, when I say we, the black 2456 02:13:20,760 --> 02:13:23,120 Speaker 16: organizations that we've had, or the so called leaders that 2457 02:13:23,160 --> 02:13:25,920 Speaker 16: we've had, have never really tried to put together a 2458 02:13:26,080 --> 02:13:30,720 Speaker 16: real agenda that covers or at least something that we 2459 02:13:30,800 --> 02:13:34,440 Speaker 16: can all generally agree upon. We're never going to have uniformity, 2460 02:13:34,520 --> 02:13:36,600 Speaker 16: because that's you know, that's just not possible with sixty 2461 02:13:36,640 --> 02:13:38,920 Speaker 16: million people. But we could do better than what we're 2462 02:13:39,000 --> 02:13:41,760 Speaker 16: doing in terms of you know, having a plan. So 2463 02:13:41,920 --> 02:13:45,040 Speaker 16: turn into you as an elder and being apart. I'm 2464 02:13:45,040 --> 02:13:46,040 Speaker 16: in a lot of organizations. 2465 02:13:46,160 --> 02:13:48,960 Speaker 9: I'm Prince Hall Mason, m Alpha, you know I'm in. 2466 02:13:49,120 --> 02:13:50,880 Speaker 9: I've been in you know, a hundred black men, two 2467 02:13:50,960 --> 02:13:53,200 Speaker 9: hundred players, you know, all the different groups. And I 2468 02:13:53,320 --> 02:13:56,840 Speaker 9: noticed the groups all try to do everything themselves. What 2469 02:13:57,000 --> 02:14:00,400 Speaker 9: can we do to put together an agenda from your 2470 02:14:00,440 --> 02:14:02,080 Speaker 9: point of view based on your experience? 2471 02:14:02,800 --> 02:14:06,120 Speaker 4: Well, that was going to be really my theme today. 2472 02:14:06,200 --> 02:14:08,720 Speaker 4: That's what called wanted to focus on. So you had 2473 02:14:08,760 --> 02:14:12,760 Speaker 4: the right question. We did, you know, coming out of Gary, 2474 02:14:13,240 --> 02:14:18,120 Speaker 4: we did what we could. But that same agenda that 2475 02:14:18,320 --> 02:14:22,240 Speaker 4: became out of Gary with needs to be implemented. 2476 02:14:22,480 --> 02:14:28,240 Speaker 7: Now. We need to develop in all of the sectives. 2477 02:14:29,040 --> 02:14:29,240 Speaker 6: You know. 2478 02:14:29,560 --> 02:14:31,080 Speaker 7: We must try to. 2479 02:14:31,160 --> 02:14:36,240 Speaker 4: Develop the political sectors, we must develop the educational sectors. 2480 02:14:36,960 --> 02:14:40,600 Speaker 4: We must develop our related One of the weaknesses in 2481 02:14:40,840 --> 02:14:48,280 Speaker 4: us putting that agenda together was the class division between us. 2482 02:14:49,360 --> 02:14:53,040 Speaker 4: You're right, and we don't sometimes in the black community 2483 02:14:53,320 --> 02:14:56,960 Speaker 4: pay attention to the cast and the class division between 2484 02:14:57,080 --> 02:15:06,120 Speaker 4: us because the cab driver or the minimum working class 2485 02:15:06,720 --> 02:15:09,920 Speaker 4: may not have the sets of skills necessary to do 2486 02:15:10,160 --> 02:15:13,960 Speaker 4: certain things politically. But we have people who've gone to 2487 02:15:14,120 --> 02:15:17,120 Speaker 4: college because of the Black struggle, who've gone to other 2488 02:15:17,240 --> 02:15:20,480 Speaker 4: training facilities, who've come back in our community with the skills, 2489 02:15:21,040 --> 02:15:24,240 Speaker 4: But we have not bridged that gap between the classes 2490 02:15:25,400 --> 02:15:29,680 Speaker 4: right and in the struggle that we had in the sixties, 2491 02:15:29,800 --> 02:15:35,240 Speaker 4: particularly the relationship between the Black church and the Black 2492 02:15:35,760 --> 02:15:40,200 Speaker 4: youth got ruptured, and I don't think we've ever really 2493 02:15:40,280 --> 02:15:41,000 Speaker 4: repaired that. 2494 02:15:41,640 --> 02:15:42,480 Speaker 7: I don't think people have. 2495 02:15:42,680 --> 02:15:47,800 Speaker 4: Paid attention to the rupture that took place and using 2496 02:15:47,880 --> 02:15:51,080 Speaker 4: the Black Church to be the representative because that's what 2497 02:15:51,200 --> 02:15:58,360 Speaker 4: it is. Spiritual institution in the Black community, and any 2498 02:15:58,440 --> 02:16:04,080 Speaker 4: community that moves forward must have a special and peculiar 2499 02:16:04,200 --> 02:16:09,720 Speaker 4: relationship with their spiritual sectors. So we need to have 2500 02:16:09,840 --> 02:16:14,160 Speaker 4: a different kind of relationship between with We now have 2501 02:16:14,280 --> 02:16:18,560 Speaker 4: a large Islamic element in our community, and our super 2502 02:16:18,680 --> 02:16:22,240 Speaker 4: Christian element in our community, and even our new African 2503 02:16:22,360 --> 02:16:26,520 Speaker 4: indigenous element that has developed in our communities. They must 2504 02:16:26,600 --> 02:16:32,680 Speaker 4: have a relationship. See, because the one place where people 2505 02:16:32,840 --> 02:16:35,800 Speaker 4: gather at least once a week is in these places. 2506 02:16:37,640 --> 02:16:41,160 Speaker 4: And in these places when we come all casts and 2507 02:16:41,280 --> 02:16:45,200 Speaker 4: class are represented. So that's where a discussion has to 2508 02:16:45,320 --> 02:16:50,640 Speaker 4: take place about things economic, things political, and things cultural. 2509 02:16:51,440 --> 02:16:54,039 Speaker 4: This is what a discussion has to take place where 2510 02:16:54,080 --> 02:16:59,600 Speaker 4: we start talking about building and teaching skills to our 2511 02:16:59,640 --> 02:17:03,360 Speaker 4: next generation. How do we set up apprenticeship programs in 2512 02:17:03,400 --> 02:17:07,720 Speaker 4: our community right? How do we teach politics to our youth, 2513 02:17:08,040 --> 02:17:10,560 Speaker 4: how to understand how to get on the ballot, how 2514 02:17:10,600 --> 02:17:14,039 Speaker 4: to understand, how to do petitions, how to understand thought? 2515 02:17:14,080 --> 02:17:16,000 Speaker 1: Right there, Professor Small, We've got to step aside for 2516 02:17:16,000 --> 02:17:18,360 Speaker 1: a few months so our stations can identify themselves down 2517 02:17:18,400 --> 02:17:21,160 Speaker 1: the line. Family, Our guest is Professor Small. Happy new year, 2518 02:17:21,360 --> 02:17:24,039 Speaker 1: Bari Ghani to you.

This is the 2523 02:17:35,160 --> 02:17:37,920 Speaker 1: final day of Quansa, the first day of twenty twenty six, 2524 02:17:38,000 --> 02:17:40,200 Speaker 1: and our guess is Professor James Small. Professor Small is 2525 02:17:40,240 --> 02:17:43,640 Speaker 1: one of our agrills. Professor Small, were having a discussion 2526 02:17:43,680 --> 02:17:46,960 Speaker 1: here and I think Carl and Alexandra Virgina brought it 2527 02:17:47,040 --> 02:17:49,440 Speaker 1: up and this is what we were going to talk about. 2528 02:17:49,480 --> 02:17:52,360 Speaker 1: As you mentioned the roadmap for us for twenty twenty six. 2529 02:17:52,560 --> 02:17:54,240 Speaker 1: But he also mentioned I'll let you finish your thought. 2530 02:17:54,280 --> 02:17:55,880 Speaker 1: But he also mentioned that we're not going to get 2531 02:17:55,959 --> 02:18:02,200 Speaker 1: everybody on the same page, and is status necessarily just 2532 02:18:02,280 --> 02:18:03,760 Speaker 1: need a critical mass to. 2533 02:18:04,200 --> 02:18:06,080 Speaker 7: Make this move right. 2534 02:18:07,280 --> 02:18:09,920 Speaker 4: No society of a group of people get everyone on 2535 02:18:10,000 --> 02:18:13,320 Speaker 4: the same page. Like you said, we need a critical 2536 02:18:13,440 --> 02:18:18,199 Speaker 4: mass that understand that they're responsible for the larger group. 2537 02:18:19,200 --> 02:18:21,920 Speaker 4: And so I wanted to let them know that people 2538 02:18:22,000 --> 02:18:24,800 Speaker 4: didn't just walk away from Gary and did nothing. There 2539 02:18:24,840 --> 02:18:27,280 Speaker 4: were many attempts and one of the biggest was done 2540 02:18:27,320 --> 02:18:30,360 Speaker 4: by the Black Caucus in nineteen eighty two, and they 2541 02:18:30,400 --> 02:18:33,279 Speaker 4: actually put out a document called the Black Leadership Family 2542 02:18:33,440 --> 02:18:36,959 Speaker 4: Plan for the Unity, Survival and Progress of Black People. 2543 02:18:37,520 --> 02:18:39,600 Speaker 4: So people need to look that document up and see 2544 02:18:39,640 --> 02:18:41,840 Speaker 4: if they can get a copy of it. Even today, 2545 02:18:42,080 --> 02:18:46,360 Speaker 4: it's so apropos to today because we don't need to 2546 02:18:46,440 --> 02:18:48,720 Speaker 4: do nothing new. We need to do the old things 2547 02:18:48,760 --> 02:18:52,800 Speaker 4: that we weren't doing well right. We need to really 2548 02:18:53,440 --> 02:18:56,519 Speaker 4: open up the churches and the moss to the community 2549 02:18:57,480 --> 02:19:01,240 Speaker 4: so that we can develop workshops an apprenticeship program for 2550 02:19:01,280 --> 02:19:04,400 Speaker 4: our youth. But one of the biggest problems in our 2551 02:19:04,400 --> 02:19:07,720 Speaker 4: community is the employment of our youth, and one of 2552 02:19:07,800 --> 02:19:10,960 Speaker 4: the biggest problems with them not being employable is that 2553 02:19:11,080 --> 02:19:12,279 Speaker 4: they don't have the skills. 2554 02:19:13,440 --> 02:19:17,000 Speaker 7: And so we have people who have those skills, but. 2555 02:19:17,160 --> 02:19:20,200 Speaker 4: We don't have any apprenticing going on in our community 2556 02:19:20,760 --> 02:19:24,520 Speaker 4: so that the intergenerational transmission of those skills can take 2557 02:19:24,560 --> 02:19:28,440 Speaker 4: place in an orderly fashion. And I think we need 2558 02:19:28,520 --> 02:19:30,960 Speaker 4: to be very clear about that. We need to be 2559 02:19:31,160 --> 02:19:36,480 Speaker 4: talking about collective actions on everything political, collective actions and 2560 02:19:36,560 --> 02:19:41,039 Speaker 4: everything economics. Around the economics, we need to start pulling together, 2561 02:19:41,600 --> 02:19:45,840 Speaker 4: you know, savings groups. We need to start opening up 2562 02:19:46,440 --> 02:19:51,480 Speaker 4: new black banks in the black community. We need to 2563 02:19:51,560 --> 02:19:59,680 Speaker 4: start doing one of the other economic structures that we 2564 02:19:59,760 --> 02:20:02,920 Speaker 4: can any economic body that we can put together to 2565 02:20:03,080 --> 02:20:06,640 Speaker 4: save capital to reinvest in the real estate and the 2566 02:20:06,720 --> 02:20:10,120 Speaker 4: business of the black community. There are many organizations trying 2567 02:20:10,160 --> 02:20:12,680 Speaker 4: to do this. We need to expand them and get 2568 02:20:12,760 --> 02:20:14,800 Speaker 4: more involved in the ones that are trying to do 2569 02:20:14,959 --> 02:20:18,640 Speaker 4: this kind of work. We need to use the schools 2570 02:20:18,680 --> 02:20:23,320 Speaker 4: and the churches to teach basic help through sports and training, 2571 02:20:24,400 --> 02:20:26,840 Speaker 4: not just the ball games. We need the ball games 2572 02:20:26,920 --> 02:20:29,200 Speaker 4: the kids are doing that. We need to learn the 2573 02:20:29,280 --> 02:20:32,000 Speaker 4: martial arts, We need to learn dance. We need to 2574 02:20:32,080 --> 02:20:35,879 Speaker 4: bring African culture back as a center African world culture. 2575 02:20:36,560 --> 02:20:38,800 Speaker 4: When I say African culture, I'm not just talking about 2576 02:20:38,879 --> 02:20:42,800 Speaker 4: mimicking an ethnic group from the continent of Africa. We 2577 02:20:42,920 --> 02:20:45,720 Speaker 4: need to learn those two, but we need to learn 2578 02:20:46,360 --> 02:20:50,199 Speaker 4: African culture in America. When one thinks I've heard people 2579 02:20:50,280 --> 02:20:52,959 Speaker 4: saying lately the African Americans don't have any culture, that's 2580 02:20:53,000 --> 02:20:57,520 Speaker 4: the most ridiculous statement anybody with any intelligence can make, 2581 02:20:58,080 --> 02:21:01,720 Speaker 4: because all people have culture. There isn't a single ethnic 2582 02:21:01,800 --> 02:21:05,000 Speaker 4: group on the planet Earth that don't have a culture. 2583 02:21:06,120 --> 02:21:07,959 Speaker 7: And what we need to do, though, is. 2584 02:21:08,240 --> 02:21:12,800 Speaker 4: Organize and define the parameters of our culture. You know, 2585 02:21:13,360 --> 02:21:17,920 Speaker 4: what happened to our dance models, what happened to swing? 2586 02:21:18,360 --> 02:21:21,600 Speaker 4: What happened to the jitterbug? What happened to the Lindy Hop? 2587 02:21:21,920 --> 02:21:24,720 Speaker 4: What happened all of the dance move the twists that 2588 02:21:24,920 --> 02:21:31,320 Speaker 4: we created, those are part of your collage of dance 2589 02:21:31,440 --> 02:21:36,640 Speaker 4: culture that you should maintain. Because someone else has controlled 2590 02:21:37,000 --> 02:21:41,160 Speaker 4: our culture each generation. They have us abandon the things 2591 02:21:41,240 --> 02:21:44,680 Speaker 4: of the generation before and create something new, and we 2592 02:21:44,840 --> 02:21:49,680 Speaker 4: have to go back and reclaim those things. When we're 2593 02:21:49,720 --> 02:21:52,800 Speaker 4: talking about hip hop and rap, what happened to jazz? 2594 02:21:53,280 --> 02:21:57,680 Speaker 4: What happened to the blues right, what happened to rag? 2595 02:21:58,280 --> 02:22:02,600 Speaker 4: What happened to bebop? All of those musical forms that 2596 02:22:02,879 --> 02:22:07,040 Speaker 4: gave birth to hip hop, we have abandoned them and 2597 02:22:07,160 --> 02:22:09,959 Speaker 4: we need to come back and understand. The way culture 2598 02:22:10,200 --> 02:22:15,840 Speaker 4: works is that it always referred back to its parent elements. 2599 02:22:17,560 --> 02:22:20,680 Speaker 4: And so we need to teach African American culture as 2600 02:22:20,720 --> 02:22:27,160 Speaker 4: a whole from the time we begin to reinvent ourselves 2601 02:22:27,360 --> 02:22:33,320 Speaker 4: in the Americas during the enslavement genocidal process, and then 2602 02:22:33,400 --> 02:22:37,600 Speaker 4: looking at the relationship of our cultural retentions and our 2603 02:22:37,680 --> 02:22:41,800 Speaker 4: cultural innovations to our mother culture Africa. 2604 02:22:42,640 --> 02:22:44,640 Speaker 7: What of it that we retained in. 2605 02:22:44,760 --> 02:22:47,080 Speaker 4: All of the forms we created in the Caribbean and 2606 02:22:47,440 --> 02:22:50,240 Speaker 4: Black Latin America and in the United States and Canada. 2607 02:22:51,080 --> 02:22:54,040 Speaker 4: And so that's a study that we need that needs 2608 02:22:54,080 --> 02:22:56,640 Speaker 4: to be normal. We need to be doing that in 2609 02:22:56,760 --> 02:23:00,480 Speaker 4: the church for our youth. You know, we need to 2610 02:23:00,560 --> 02:23:04,160 Speaker 4: make sure that we can in a community, any community, 2611 02:23:04,240 --> 02:23:06,800 Speaker 4: how many plumbers do we have, how many electricians do 2612 02:23:06,920 --> 02:23:09,759 Speaker 4: we have, how many construction companies. 2613 02:23:09,360 --> 02:23:09,760 Speaker 19: Do we have? 2614 02:23:10,240 --> 02:23:13,160 Speaker 4: And then build a relationship. How do we begin to 2615 02:23:13,240 --> 02:23:17,359 Speaker 4: apprentice our youth in these skills areas that are essential 2616 02:23:17,440 --> 02:23:21,040 Speaker 4: to build any community right now, if you call for 2617 02:23:21,080 --> 02:23:23,760 Speaker 4: a plumber, if you call for a painter, if you 2618 02:23:23,879 --> 02:23:26,160 Speaker 4: call for someone to put down a floor or put 2619 02:23:26,200 --> 02:23:29,480 Speaker 4: in a window, is some other ethnic group from someplace 2620 02:23:29,520 --> 02:23:30,280 Speaker 4: else in the world. 2621 02:23:30,320 --> 02:23:31,679 Speaker 7: It's not the African. 2622 02:23:31,360 --> 02:23:34,960 Speaker 4: American community that you live in, because we are not 2623 02:23:35,160 --> 02:23:40,679 Speaker 4: transferring into generationally these skills to our children. Because fundamentally 2624 02:23:41,000 --> 02:23:46,320 Speaker 4: everything is predicated on economics, you know, and if you 2625 02:23:46,440 --> 02:23:51,240 Speaker 4: have not made economics your foundation, no matter what you 2626 02:23:51,320 --> 02:23:55,120 Speaker 4: do politically, you're going to be in trouble. Matter of fact, 2627 02:23:55,160 --> 02:23:58,720 Speaker 4: you can't even develop a strong political space unless you 2628 02:23:58,840 --> 02:24:01,920 Speaker 4: come from a strong economic space, otherwise you will be 2629 02:24:02,120 --> 02:24:05,920 Speaker 4: own and bought by some other ethnic groups and you 2630 02:24:05,959 --> 02:24:08,440 Speaker 4: will not be allowed to do the things you need 2631 02:24:08,520 --> 02:24:14,480 Speaker 4: to do for your ethnic groups. Economic politics and culture 2632 02:24:14,600 --> 02:24:20,640 Speaker 4: applied together, and spirituality is at the core of your culture. Now, 2633 02:24:20,720 --> 02:24:26,440 Speaker 4: Spirituality isn't religion. Religion is fundamentally a tool of spirituality. 2634 02:24:27,400 --> 02:24:33,920 Speaker 4: Spirituality is that core understanding that you have about creation 2635 02:24:34,120 --> 02:24:37,520 Speaker 4: and divinity and humanity that we brought from Africa. So 2636 02:24:37,600 --> 02:24:40,640 Speaker 4: it doesn't matter what kind of clothes we wrap it in, 2637 02:24:40,760 --> 02:24:44,320 Speaker 4: whether it's the Christian clothes, the Muslim clothes, the Yurba clothes, 2638 02:24:44,760 --> 02:24:47,640 Speaker 4: the Hindu clothes. What is the African core? Did you 2639 02:24:48,120 --> 02:24:52,000 Speaker 4: retain and maintain that? And these are things that we've 2640 02:24:52,040 --> 02:24:54,359 Speaker 4: been trying to teach the years in the Black studies 2641 02:24:54,440 --> 02:24:58,240 Speaker 4: programs across the country, which have been decimated and attacked 2642 02:24:58,600 --> 02:25:01,400 Speaker 4: by foolish people who don't know understand that if you 2643 02:25:01,480 --> 02:25:05,640 Speaker 4: don't know yourself, you'll never learn to love yourself. And 2644 02:25:05,720 --> 02:25:10,360 Speaker 4: if you can't love yourself, you can't develop yourself. And 2645 02:25:10,440 --> 02:25:13,640 Speaker 4: the fundamental issue for us is unity. How do we 2646 02:25:14,320 --> 02:25:18,600 Speaker 4: unify to have the unity without worrying about uniformity because 2647 02:25:18,600 --> 02:25:22,760 Speaker 4: we have all of these varieties in our community. And 2648 02:25:22,920 --> 02:25:26,520 Speaker 4: so going forward, we must realize there's a lot of 2649 02:25:26,560 --> 02:25:30,160 Speaker 4: people doing work around everything that I just said, but 2650 02:25:30,320 --> 02:25:33,640 Speaker 4: we must increase that work and become a greater part 2651 02:25:33,720 --> 02:25:36,600 Speaker 4: of that work. You know, like my brother who called 2652 02:25:36,800 --> 02:25:39,720 Speaker 4: I'm a prince all free Mason, I'm very proud of that, 2653 02:25:40,280 --> 02:25:44,000 Speaker 4: because we do not do no approach the world in 2654 02:25:44,120 --> 02:25:47,520 Speaker 4: the same way as the European free Mason. They got 2655 02:25:47,560 --> 02:25:51,000 Speaker 4: one agenda. We got our own agenda. But we need 2656 02:25:51,080 --> 02:25:53,560 Speaker 4: to be clear about that and we need not to 2657 02:25:54,280 --> 02:25:57,880 Speaker 4: create such an elitist postures. And this goes with the 2658 02:25:57,959 --> 02:26:02,000 Speaker 4: Divine nine as well. You do beautiful work in small spaces, 2659 02:26:02,760 --> 02:26:04,880 Speaker 4: but you're supposed to be the core leadership of the 2660 02:26:04,959 --> 02:26:09,080 Speaker 4: black community, and you haven't become that. You've become a 2661 02:26:09,200 --> 02:26:14,960 Speaker 4: core leadership element in the white community, but you need 2662 02:26:15,040 --> 02:26:17,480 Speaker 4: to be the core leadership element in the black community. 2663 02:26:17,640 --> 02:26:20,240 Speaker 4: That's why you were sent to colleges. That's why we 2664 02:26:20,440 --> 02:26:24,960 Speaker 4: created a sorority in the fraternities to develop a leadership class. 2665 02:26:25,959 --> 02:26:29,880 Speaker 4: That talented tent that the boys was talking about. Not 2666 02:26:30,040 --> 02:26:33,640 Speaker 4: to misuse the community, but they help organize and give 2667 02:26:33,720 --> 02:26:37,280 Speaker 4: guidance to the community, and we're not doing that very 2668 02:26:37,320 --> 02:26:39,720 Speaker 4: well in some places. 2669 02:26:39,800 --> 02:26:40,000 Speaker 1: We are. 2670 02:26:40,120 --> 02:26:42,880 Speaker 4: Now, let's not be crazy, because when we look at 2671 02:26:42,959 --> 02:26:50,240 Speaker 4: cities like Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas, Houston, Washington, and parts of Maryland, 2672 02:26:50,520 --> 02:26:53,839 Speaker 4: even in the fifth of North Carolina, we're seeing extraordinary 2673 02:26:53,920 --> 02:26:58,920 Speaker 4: black communities with extraordinary wealth, hardly no crime to talk about. 2674 02:27:00,520 --> 02:27:04,800 Speaker 4: But we are bigger than those ten cities. We live 2675 02:27:04,879 --> 02:27:07,400 Speaker 4: in all of America. How do we study what's going 2676 02:27:07,480 --> 02:27:10,320 Speaker 4: on in Atlanta, Study what's going on in Charlotte, Study 2677 02:27:10,360 --> 02:27:12,560 Speaker 4: what's going on in Dallas and Houston and Raleigh, In 2678 02:27:12,640 --> 02:27:17,840 Speaker 4: Chicago and Fayetteville in Washington, d C. And Baltimore and 2679 02:27:18,200 --> 02:27:21,600 Speaker 4: import that to other parts of the black community across 2680 02:27:21,640 --> 02:27:25,040 Speaker 4: the country. That's the kind of work we need to do. 2681 02:27:26,840 --> 02:27:29,640 Speaker 4: And we then be complaining about who took our jobs 2682 02:27:29,680 --> 02:27:32,200 Speaker 4: because no one has taken our jobs. We have not 2683 02:27:32,320 --> 02:27:35,560 Speaker 4: prepared ourselves for the jobs that's out there. And we 2684 02:27:35,760 --> 02:27:39,400 Speaker 4: have to get rid of the fear of AI and 2685 02:27:39,640 --> 02:27:44,920 Speaker 4: master the AI because that's the future, you understand. So 2686 02:27:45,080 --> 02:27:48,240 Speaker 4: we're really talking about what the conversation has always been on. 2687 02:27:48,480 --> 02:27:52,400 Speaker 4: Economic politics and culture must be controlled by you where 2688 02:27:52,440 --> 02:27:56,279 Speaker 4: you live. If you're going to be able to supply food, clothing, 2689 02:27:56,400 --> 02:27:59,720 Speaker 4: self and safety and security and jobs for your community. 2690 02:28:00,080 --> 02:28:06,360 Speaker 4: Emptier Family's formula, but we've got to implement it on 2691 02:28:06,440 --> 02:28:07,160 Speaker 4: a greater level. 2692 02:28:08,040 --> 02:28:10,600 Speaker 1: Got you, Doc thirteen? After the topic, I got some 2693 02:28:10,600 --> 02:28:12,200 Speaker 1: folks want to talk to you. Let's go across the 2694 02:28:12,280 --> 02:28:14,640 Speaker 1: pond to the UK. Paul's waiting for us. He's in 2695 02:28:14,720 --> 02:28:19,200 Speaker 1: East London, Grand Rising. Paul and Barry Ghani.

Do I have your permission? 2702 02:28:41,120 --> 02:28:41,360 Speaker 1: Sure? 2703 02:28:41,480 --> 02:28:45,959 Speaker 7: Yes, thank you, Professor Small. 2704 02:28:46,120 --> 02:28:49,640 Speaker 20: I want had a conversation with you on this particular program, 2705 02:28:49,720 --> 02:28:53,400 Speaker 20: and I said to you that Prince Haul, it's been 2706 02:28:53,480 --> 02:28:56,800 Speaker 20: referred to today twice, came. 2707 02:28:56,680 --> 02:28:57,600 Speaker 7: From bar Vavios. 2708 02:28:57,840 --> 02:29:01,640 Speaker 20: Okay, this was my information which I collected over the 2709 02:29:01,760 --> 02:29:05,480 Speaker 20: years just from internet research. In a particular book, it 2710 02:29:05,560 --> 02:29:10,760 Speaker 20: suggested that Prince Hall's mother was African descent and his 2711 02:29:11,040 --> 02:29:13,840 Speaker 20: father was a white man from Scotland. 2712 02:29:14,120 --> 02:29:14,240 Speaker 7: Right. 2713 02:29:14,360 --> 02:29:18,000 Speaker 20: This was in the I've managed to Clifighter. Now I'm 2714 02:29:18,040 --> 02:29:20,920 Speaker 20: asking you, do you still say that he did not 2715 02:29:21,080 --> 02:29:23,440 Speaker 20: come from bar Vados and that he came from America? 2716 02:29:23,520 --> 02:29:24,400 Speaker 20: That's the first question. 2717 02:29:25,520 --> 02:29:27,240 Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, I'm not gonna get caught up in that 2718 02:29:27,280 --> 02:29:30,160 Speaker 4: because that's a silly discussion. No one really let me 2719 02:29:30,240 --> 02:29:33,360 Speaker 4: tell you why, because no one really knows where his 2720 02:29:33,520 --> 02:29:38,960 Speaker 4: birthplace was. Okay, there was actually three Prince Halls in 2721 02:29:39,080 --> 02:29:43,520 Speaker 4: the Boston area at the same time, so they've always 2722 02:29:43,520 --> 02:29:46,440 Speaker 4: been that. Even in the Prince Hall lies, they don't 2723 02:29:46,520 --> 02:29:47,439 Speaker 4: have a clarity. 2724 02:29:48,040 --> 02:29:48,760 Speaker 7: So my thing is. 2725 02:29:48,840 --> 02:29:51,600 Speaker 4: I don't care where he came from, who is mamma 2726 02:29:51,640 --> 02:29:52,280 Speaker 4: or daddy was? 2727 02:29:53,080 --> 02:29:59,720 Speaker 7: And gave leadership, shouted black school for black kids. 2728 02:30:00,120 --> 02:30:03,480 Speaker 4: He petitioned the government at Boston at that time in 2729 02:30:03,640 --> 02:30:07,359 Speaker 4: history in the seventeen hundred to see the enslaved Africans 2730 02:30:07,560 --> 02:30:08,080 Speaker 4: of Boston. 2731 02:30:08,680 --> 02:30:10,080 Speaker 7: He organized. 2732 02:30:11,080 --> 02:30:12,880 Speaker 4: Some of us who fought for the British and some 2733 02:30:13,000 --> 02:30:16,560 Speaker 4: who fought for the Americans. Whomever was offering us freedom, 2734 02:30:16,959 --> 02:30:18,920 Speaker 4: to fight for your freedom so we can either go 2735 02:30:19,040 --> 02:30:21,440 Speaker 4: back to Africa or have a free space over here. 2736 02:30:22,080 --> 02:30:26,120 Speaker 4: But he did great work towards our liberation. Wherever he 2737 02:30:26,280 --> 02:30:31,560 Speaker 4: came from, he's an African. Yeah, it's like Marcus America 2738 02:30:32,560 --> 02:30:33,440 Speaker 4: came from Jamaica. 2739 02:30:34,200 --> 02:30:37,720 Speaker 20: Uhh, Yeah, he's an African. But they also have a 2740 02:30:37,760 --> 02:30:40,480 Speaker 20: place in Barbados called Prince Hord. I have an actual 2741 02:30:40,560 --> 02:30:42,840 Speaker 20: are dedicated to him. But that's by the way, let's 2742 02:30:42,920 --> 02:30:43,440 Speaker 20: leave that there. 2743 02:30:44,280 --> 02:30:48,360 Speaker 4: They do people, like I said, people are still writing 2744 02:30:48,440 --> 02:30:49,840 Speaker 4: on that and researching on that. 2745 02:30:50,400 --> 02:30:54,640 Speaker 7: Ok. Where he's from, camp be the core discussing at 2746 02:30:54,680 --> 02:30:55,960 Speaker 7: all what you can do. 2747 02:30:57,320 --> 02:31:00,400 Speaker 20: No, it was interesting you also said you also made 2748 02:31:00,480 --> 02:31:02,800 Speaker 20: mentioned of stealing African American history. 2749 02:31:02,840 --> 02:31:03,959 Speaker 7: That's what you said or. 2750 02:31:04,000 --> 02:31:04,960 Speaker 13: I'm just going to leave that. 2751 02:31:07,000 --> 02:31:09,800 Speaker 4: Let me back you up a minute, right, let me 2752 02:31:09,920 --> 02:31:11,879 Speaker 4: back you up. If I said it, I was trying 2753 02:31:11,920 --> 02:31:15,680 Speaker 4: to explain something. And like I said, even in the 2754 02:31:15,800 --> 02:31:20,160 Speaker 4: Prince Hall Lodgist, no one the clarity we know where 2755 02:31:20,240 --> 02:31:21,240 Speaker 4: that man was born. 2756 02:31:22,360 --> 02:31:22,840 Speaker 7: And then the. 2757 02:31:22,920 --> 02:31:27,080 Speaker 4: Initial writing placing him in Barbados was the European writers 2758 02:31:27,120 --> 02:31:30,600 Speaker 4: who was trying to tell our story. So no one knows. 2759 02:31:30,640 --> 02:31:33,240 Speaker 4: And for me, it doesn't matter where he was born 2760 02:31:33,480 --> 02:31:37,600 Speaker 4: because Barbados is just a little bit south. It's on 2761 02:31:37,720 --> 02:31:42,440 Speaker 4: the same planet Earth, and it's a little bit south. Yeah, 2762 02:31:42,720 --> 02:31:46,200 Speaker 4: I get it. I get it.

There's a group of people who call that 2775 02:32:27,640 --> 02:32:30,400 Speaker 4: and he may thinks he's a spokesperson for it, but 2776 02:32:30,800 --> 02:32:34,040 Speaker 4: me and them have just had a very lengthy online 2777 02:32:34,160 --> 02:32:37,640 Speaker 4: discussion where I was attacked by that organization for a 2778 02:32:37,760 --> 02:32:40,120 Speaker 4: month every day, So you must not be in keeping 2779 02:32:40,200 --> 02:32:40,960 Speaker 4: up with the facts. 2780 02:32:41,720 --> 02:32:47,640 Speaker 7: So but but let me tell you, Nona raise that. 2781 02:32:47,879 --> 02:32:50,959 Speaker 4: You raise it with me.

They don't have a right to attack 2792 02:33:16,760 --> 02:33:19,960 Speaker 4: me or other Africans. That's where we draw a line. 2793 02:33:21,160 --> 02:33:24,680 Speaker 4: Best part of let me tell let me be clear 2794 02:33:24,760 --> 02:33:25,920 Speaker 4: with you, because. 2795 02:33:25,720 --> 02:33:28,120 Speaker 1: You do a whole nothing right there, professor.

I'll I let you respond 2797 02:33:30,120 --> 02:33:31,240 Speaker 1: to that when we get back, and we got some 2798 02:33:31,320 --> 02:33:33,280 Speaker 1: more folks want to talk to you. Eighteen minutes after 2799 02:33:33,280 --> 02:33:35,959 Speaker 1: the top they are family. I guess it's Professor James Small, 2800 02:33:36,040 --> 02:33:37,680 Speaker 1: reach out to us at eight hundred and four or 2801 02:33:37,760 --> 02:33:40,280 Speaker 1: five zero seventy eight seventy six, and we'll take your 2802 02:33:40,280 --> 02:33:41,160 Speaker 1: phone calls next. 2803 02:33:41,360 --> 02:33:43,560 Speaker 4: Because most of the victories that we've had in this 2804 02:33:43,680 --> 02:33:46,960 Speaker 4: country have come from those black men and women who 2805 02:33:47,200 --> 02:33:49,520 Speaker 4: use that church as a sanctuary. I don't know what 2806 02:33:49,640 --> 02:33:52,040 Speaker 4: they believe is at the end of the day, that's 2807 02:33:52,120 --> 02:33:54,720 Speaker 4: personal to them, but they've been able to use it. 2808 02:33:55,160 --> 02:33:58,000 Speaker 4: Can we use it again or do we have to 2809 02:33:58,080 --> 02:34:00,280 Speaker 4: create new institutions? And if we have to, we had 2810 02:34:00,360 --> 02:34:04,320 Speaker 4: new institution, then let's do it. Not criticize the ones 2811 02:34:04,400 --> 02:34:07,199 Speaker 4: that ain't working. Then let's create the ones that will work, 2812 02:34:07,640 --> 02:34:10,560 Speaker 4: or take the ones that's not working and help to 2813 02:34:10,720 --> 02:34:11,480 Speaker 4: make it work. 2814 02:34:11,840 --> 02:34:15,400 Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying, right And Professor Small, could it 2815 02:34:15,480 --> 02:34:18,320 Speaker 1: be the people on the outside seat and they critique 2816 02:34:18,440 --> 02:34:20,520 Speaker 1: when it should be the people who are attending these 2817 02:34:20,640 --> 02:34:24,360 Speaker 1: faith centers to address the mom or address the pastor 2818 02:34:24,440 --> 02:34:26,120 Speaker 1: and say, hey, this is what we need to deal 2819 02:34:26,200 --> 02:34:28,440 Speaker 1: with it. Should should should we look at them? 2820 02:34:29,280 --> 02:34:31,720 Speaker 4: I think we need to do both. I speak with 2821 02:34:31,879 --> 02:34:33,880 Speaker 4: ministers and preachers all the time and I go and 2822 02:34:33,959 --> 02:34:35,640 Speaker 4: I speak to the church, and I make the same 2823 02:34:35,760 --> 02:34:38,400 Speaker 4: kind of critique the young man is making. But I'm 2824 02:34:38,440 --> 02:34:41,880 Speaker 4: not making the critique with a condemnation. I'm making the 2825 02:34:42,000 --> 02:34:46,160 Speaker 4: critique with we have this thing, it can be made 2826 02:34:46,360 --> 02:34:49,920 Speaker 4: more useful. How do we make it more useful to 2827 02:34:50,080 --> 02:34:54,359 Speaker 4: solve the problems we have faced with economically, politically, and culturally. 2828 02:34:54,760 --> 02:34:57,879 Speaker 4: And we can't say it's really failing because there's black 2829 02:34:57,920 --> 02:35:02,199 Speaker 4: communities all across this country that are surviving and thriving. 2830 02:35:01,879 --> 02:35:02,680 Speaker 7: Because of them. 2831 02:35:03,320 --> 02:35:05,760 Speaker 4: And we can't call any black person who happened to 2832 02:35:05,840 --> 02:35:08,879 Speaker 4: have a job and is making a decent living patty bourgeois, 2833 02:35:08,879 --> 02:35:11,960 Speaker 4: because that's a nice little flick term out of the 2834 02:35:12,080 --> 02:35:15,680 Speaker 4: Marxist lexicon that came around in the sixties, and it 2835 02:35:15,760 --> 02:35:18,360 Speaker 4: became more of an attack element on black people than 2836 02:35:18,400 --> 02:35:22,240 Speaker 4: an analysis of black people. So let's figure out how 2837 02:35:22,320 --> 02:35:24,400 Speaker 4: do we solve the problem with the tools we have. 2838 02:35:25,520 --> 02:35:28,240 Speaker 4: If you got some new tools someplace we don't know about, 2839 02:35:28,560 --> 02:35:30,640 Speaker 4: then bring them to four. But if we don't have 2840 02:35:30,800 --> 02:35:34,320 Speaker 4: those tools, I raise the Divine nine because most of 2841 02:35:34,400 --> 02:35:37,600 Speaker 4: the young men and women and elder men and women 2842 02:35:37,680 --> 02:35:40,400 Speaker 4: who were a part of those organizations, many of them 2843 02:35:40,400 --> 02:35:45,199 Speaker 4: have done good work in their communities. Now the organization 2844 02:35:45,440 --> 02:35:50,080 Speaker 4: focus broad enough, Is the organization focused inclusive enough? These 2845 02:35:50,120 --> 02:35:53,119 Speaker 4: are the fundamental questions we need to ask because if 2846 02:35:53,200 --> 02:35:56,280 Speaker 4: we're going to compete with what we see coming our 2847 02:35:56,360 --> 02:36:01,879 Speaker 4: way in this country right now, better organize what we've got. 2848 02:36:02,520 --> 02:36:05,200 Speaker 4: Don't tell me I need a brand new gapling gun, 2849 02:36:05,320 --> 02:36:06,400 Speaker 4: but we don't have one. 2850 02:36:06,959 --> 02:36:07,840 Speaker 7: Let me know how to do. 2851 02:36:07,959 --> 02:36:10,120 Speaker 4: Like the Zulus did, make the bow and arrow work 2852 02:36:10,200 --> 02:36:14,600 Speaker 4: for me. You know, got until to get me a 2853 02:36:14,680 --> 02:36:15,360 Speaker 4: gapling gun. 2854 02:36:16,080 --> 02:36:18,800 Speaker 1: Twenty eight after the top Carl's calling us from West 2855 02:36:18,840 --> 02:36:22,119 Speaker 1: Palm Beaches in Florida's on line four grand rising carlier 2856 02:36:22,160 --> 02:36:23,640 Speaker 1: on the professor small. 2857 02:36:25,000 --> 02:36:29,840 Speaker 11: Grand rather than in money. I wanted to sugget. I 2858 02:36:29,920 --> 02:36:33,000 Speaker 11: wanted to suggest another thought process if I could. I 2859 02:36:33,160 --> 02:36:37,440 Speaker 11: looked at what the what our divine nine did as 2860 02:36:37,480 --> 02:36:41,680 Speaker 11: a related to accumulating resources for the presidency. When they 2861 02:36:42,040 --> 02:36:44,840 Speaker 11: are accumulated, I think in about three days they've got 2862 02:36:44,920 --> 02:36:46,519 Speaker 11: so many millions or dollars. 2863 02:36:46,320 --> 02:36:50,439 Speaker 4: And put it in place to be used for politics. 2864 02:36:50,920 --> 02:36:51,600 Speaker 7: I would pray that. 2865 02:36:51,640 --> 02:36:53,720 Speaker 11: They would take some of those dollars that they have 2866 02:36:54,400 --> 02:36:58,240 Speaker 11: now sits there up under attack with their governmental jobs 2867 02:36:58,720 --> 02:37:03,200 Speaker 11: and taking the reens that's inside of our miseducation here 2868 02:37:03,280 --> 02:37:06,600 Speaker 11: in America. And if we're getting ready for a Black 2869 02:37:06,680 --> 02:37:10,000 Speaker 11: History Month, get I think we all need to focus 2870 02:37:10,080 --> 02:37:13,920 Speaker 11: on Cartig Wilson, his methodology, his strategy, and what was 2871 02:37:14,040 --> 02:37:16,720 Speaker 11: his divine thoughts for us as it relates to us 2872 02:37:17,080 --> 02:37:21,000 Speaker 11: established in Black history on his name the thing that 2873 02:37:21,120 --> 02:37:25,640 Speaker 11: I get in get in with Dr Small everybody. I 2874 02:37:25,800 --> 02:37:29,320 Speaker 11: talked to, my superintendent, my chairman, and my school board. 2875 02:37:29,360 --> 02:37:31,360 Speaker 11: None of them know who Cartage Wilson is. But they 2876 02:37:31,440 --> 02:37:34,119 Speaker 11: have celebrations all over the city, all over the county, 2877 02:37:35,080 --> 02:37:37,959 Speaker 11: and nobody know who he is or what he's about. 2878 02:37:38,120 --> 02:37:40,720 Speaker 11: And I think it's our responsibility to make it plain. 2879 02:37:41,280 --> 02:37:44,080 Speaker 11: And for some my suggestion that what we could do 2880 02:37:44,600 --> 02:37:47,640 Speaker 11: as a people, we need to go to our capital 2881 02:37:48,080 --> 02:37:53,119 Speaker 11: cities and our states and insert ourselves actually disaggregated data 2882 02:37:53,240 --> 02:37:57,880 Speaker 11: as it relates to what activity that they spawned for us, 2883 02:37:57,959 --> 02:38:00,520 Speaker 11: whether they were successful or they will spare you. And 2884 02:38:00,640 --> 02:38:02,480 Speaker 11: we need to do that same kind of activity in 2885 02:38:02,560 --> 02:38:05,240 Speaker 11: our county and in our city. And I think they're 2886 02:38:05,280 --> 02:38:07,840 Speaker 11: at our school board, and we got to insert ourselves 2887 02:38:07,879 --> 02:38:10,880 Speaker 11: so people can know that we are reality. Right now, 2888 02:38:10,959 --> 02:38:12,440 Speaker 11: we are like a ghost when I go to the 2889 02:38:12,480 --> 02:38:15,760 Speaker 11: school board meeting, they never mentioned us because we are 2890 02:38:15,840 --> 02:38:16,600 Speaker 11: never there to. 2891 02:38:18,160 --> 02:38:20,760 Speaker 4: Right, take that back in part because we're not there 2892 02:38:20,840 --> 02:38:23,800 Speaker 4: to assert ourselves. I remember when I was going to 2893 02:38:23,920 --> 02:38:26,160 Speaker 4: the school board maybe, but my children was in school, 2894 02:38:26,200 --> 02:38:28,360 Speaker 4: and I do it now for my grandchildren and stuff, 2895 02:38:28,640 --> 02:38:30,480 Speaker 4: and most of the times I was the only black 2896 02:38:30,560 --> 02:38:31,000 Speaker 4: man there. 2897 02:38:32,640 --> 02:38:32,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. 2898 02:38:33,080 --> 02:38:36,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, well, well here in and we need to and 2899 02:38:36,640 --> 02:38:39,880 Speaker 7: we need to change that. We need to be we 2900 02:38:40,040 --> 02:38:42,800 Speaker 7: need to show up. Like you said, I agree with you. 2901 02:38:43,480 --> 02:38:48,120 Speaker 4: I agree with your your analysis. The only thing I 2902 02:38:48,240 --> 02:38:51,880 Speaker 4: would disagree with is that the Divine Nine I use them. 2903 02:38:51,959 --> 02:38:55,000 Speaker 4: That's the term they use for those nine particular serrorigies 2904 02:38:55,040 --> 02:38:59,959 Speaker 4: and fraternities. But they're they're individuals. Some of them are nationalists, 2905 02:39:00,280 --> 02:39:03,119 Speaker 4: some of them are Panaticonists, some of them are Christians, 2906 02:39:03,520 --> 02:39:06,160 Speaker 4: some of them are Muslims, some of them are europa 2907 02:39:06,520 --> 02:39:09,160 Speaker 4: So they're not one monolithic group of people. 2908 02:39:10,360 --> 02:39:12,199 Speaker 7: But they have these machines called. 2909 02:39:12,120 --> 02:39:16,240 Speaker 4: Organizations, sororities and fraternities, and we have to try to 2910 02:39:16,280 --> 02:39:17,279 Speaker 4: figure out how to use. 2911 02:39:17,200 --> 02:39:18,440 Speaker 7: The machine better. 2912 02:39:20,160 --> 02:39:23,320 Speaker 4: We've used used them, but we need to use them. Well. 2913 02:39:23,400 --> 02:39:25,320 Speaker 4: They didn't just raise the money for president. There was 2914 02:39:25,360 --> 02:39:27,840 Speaker 4: a hope for them to get this black woman and 2915 02:39:28,000 --> 02:39:32,760 Speaker 4: this president, Let's be clear on that. And they failed 2916 02:39:32,800 --> 02:39:35,640 Speaker 4: at that. But it wasn't them just failed. The whole 2917 02:39:35,760 --> 02:39:40,360 Speaker 4: Democratic Party failed at that. And so that doesn't say 2918 02:39:40,640 --> 02:39:43,080 Speaker 4: we don't have any special pressure to put on them, 2919 02:39:43,560 --> 02:39:47,160 Speaker 4: except to say that these organizations. 2920 02:39:46,520 --> 02:39:48,400 Speaker 7: Grew out of the black community. 2921 02:39:49,600 --> 02:39:52,360 Speaker 4: There's a falsehood people that my white people developed the bulet. 2922 02:39:52,480 --> 02:39:55,520 Speaker 7: That's not true. They need to study history. 2923 02:39:56,000 --> 02:39:59,519 Speaker 4: That's not true. Cottagey wasn't made a very good analysis 2924 02:39:59,560 --> 02:40:02,320 Speaker 4: when he p do this great work, the Miseducation of 2925 02:40:02,400 --> 02:40:05,800 Speaker 4: the Negro. But we've got to stop. We can't stop 2926 02:40:05,920 --> 02:40:08,680 Speaker 4: at the critique. We've got to come up with the 2927 02:40:08,800 --> 02:40:13,199 Speaker 4: solutions and the solution right now, we have the church, 2928 02:40:13,400 --> 02:40:16,920 Speaker 4: it is there and it ain't gone nowhere. Most of 2929 02:40:16,959 --> 02:40:20,400 Speaker 4: our people still go there. We have them ofth emanating 2930 02:40:20,480 --> 02:40:22,640 Speaker 4: out of the works of the Nation of Islam. And 2931 02:40:22,760 --> 02:40:26,520 Speaker 4: now we have the Orthodox community so called, and they 2932 02:40:26,600 --> 02:40:29,240 Speaker 4: need to make sure they can make a decent relationship 2933 02:40:29,280 --> 02:40:31,960 Speaker 4: with those who call themselves the Nation of Islam and 2934 02:40:32,080 --> 02:40:35,480 Speaker 4: the different varieties of Muslim community and Muslim elements in 2935 02:40:35,560 --> 02:40:40,480 Speaker 4: our community. If we're talking about anything other than ritual repetition. 2936 02:40:41,360 --> 02:40:44,720 Speaker 4: If we're talking about developing the community and making sure 2937 02:40:44,760 --> 02:40:47,879 Speaker 4: people have food, clothing, shelter, and safety, and making sure 2938 02:40:47,920 --> 02:40:50,680 Speaker 4: we get control of economic politics and culture where we live, 2939 02:40:51,160 --> 02:40:54,320 Speaker 4: then all of these institutions that are in our community 2940 02:40:54,400 --> 02:40:57,440 Speaker 4: that our people are part of have got to be 2941 02:40:58,760 --> 02:41:03,240 Speaker 4: developing a different agenda, or at least adding to the agenda, 2942 02:41:04,240 --> 02:41:06,800 Speaker 4: because we can partigue them and condemn them. 2943 02:41:06,720 --> 02:41:07,360 Speaker 7: All we want. 2944 02:41:07,760 --> 02:41:11,039 Speaker 4: They stove there, and our people are involved in them, 2945 02:41:11,440 --> 02:41:15,000 Speaker 4: and they are instruments for good and change when used. 2946 02:41:14,760 --> 02:41:15,440 Speaker 7: In that manner. 2947 02:41:15,879 --> 02:41:17,960 Speaker 4: So how do we get to that space? That's the 2948 02:41:18,040 --> 02:41:21,520 Speaker 4: point I'm trying to make. If you got another institutions 2949 02:41:21,560 --> 02:41:23,920 Speaker 4: you can create and put in that space, then put 2950 02:41:23,959 --> 02:41:26,640 Speaker 4: it there. But if we don't have it, let's look 2951 02:41:26,680 --> 02:41:29,640 Speaker 4: at what we got. We are in this water and 2952 02:41:29,720 --> 02:41:33,320 Speaker 4: we got these boats. Now do we abandon them and 2953 02:41:33,400 --> 02:41:35,960 Speaker 4: keep trying to swimming that we drown because we're waiting 2954 02:41:36,040 --> 02:41:38,920 Speaker 4: for a yacht, or do we utilize the boats that 2955 02:41:39,000 --> 02:41:41,320 Speaker 4: we have and repair them best we can so we 2956 02:41:41,400 --> 02:41:43,080 Speaker 4: can get to where we got to go to create 2957 02:41:43,160 --> 02:41:44,400 Speaker 4: something greater for ourselves. 2958 02:41:46,520 --> 02:41:48,400 Speaker 1: Professional hold up, thorry, I want to go back to 2959 02:41:48,440 --> 02:41:50,760 Speaker 1: the continent. Well, we see what's going on today? Donald 2960 02:41:50,800 --> 02:41:55,760 Speaker 1: Trump sending missiles going into say it's trying to save 2961 02:41:56,120 --> 02:41:59,160 Speaker 1: Nigerian Christians. How do you read that? What's going on? 2962 02:41:59,320 --> 02:42:01,600 Speaker 1: Do you see that it's a precursor maybe to attack 2963 02:42:01,680 --> 02:42:02,680 Speaker 1: this the hal Nations. 2964 02:42:02,879 --> 02:42:07,400 Speaker 4: That's life. So they've been coming in Africa murdering us 2965 02:42:07,440 --> 02:42:09,360 Speaker 4: from day one. Under the guys they come. 2966 02:42:09,320 --> 02:42:11,560 Speaker 7: In to save us, So that's nothing new. 2967 02:42:12,959 --> 02:42:18,560 Speaker 4: They they they want the oil and other resources of Nigeria. 2968 02:42:18,800 --> 02:42:22,119 Speaker 4: You saw when he did the so called peace thing 2969 02:42:22,200 --> 02:42:24,440 Speaker 4: in the Congo. What is the first thing he said, 2970 02:42:25,080 --> 02:42:28,000 Speaker 4: you might you must sign the trade agreements with us 2971 02:42:28,360 --> 02:42:30,440 Speaker 4: that we can have access to the Colton and the 2972 02:42:30,520 --> 02:42:34,080 Speaker 4: Cobolt and et cetera and the Goal. And so they're 2973 02:42:34,120 --> 02:42:38,720 Speaker 4: trying to put that same squeeze on Nigeria. It's called extortion, right, 2974 02:42:39,440 --> 02:42:43,080 Speaker 4: It's called extortion by any other name. You got the 2975 02:42:43,120 --> 02:42:44,880 Speaker 4: big bully with the gun, you're going to come in 2976 02:42:45,360 --> 02:42:47,959 Speaker 4: and said, now I got the gun and I'm going. 2977 02:42:47,920 --> 02:42:48,360 Speaker 7: To use it. 2978 02:42:48,760 --> 02:42:50,800 Speaker 4: So if you want me to protect you from a 2979 02:42:50,920 --> 02:42:54,040 Speaker 4: group that I created, America and Britain and France created 2980 02:42:54,440 --> 02:42:59,320 Speaker 4: al Qaeda, and isis that's their murderers. They sent it 2981 02:42:59,400 --> 02:43:02,520 Speaker 4: to this countries they couldn't get control of, and then 2982 02:43:02,560 --> 02:43:05,120 Speaker 4: they come in with their military and say we are now, 2983 02:43:05,160 --> 02:43:09,160 Speaker 4: I'm going to kill off your enemy which they created. 2984 02:43:10,200 --> 02:43:12,320 Speaker 7: But you got to give your natural resources to me 2985 02:43:12,920 --> 02:43:13,520 Speaker 7: for helping you. 2986 02:43:14,000 --> 02:43:17,720 Speaker 4: There's nothing about an extortion racket. And we got a 2987 02:43:17,760 --> 02:43:21,720 Speaker 4: bunch of racketeers down in Washington. What we got now 2988 02:43:21,879 --> 02:43:26,120 Speaker 4: is overt racketeers. Before we had covert racketeers doing the 2989 02:43:26,200 --> 02:43:26,600 Speaker 4: same thing. 2990 02:43:29,600 --> 02:43:33,160 Speaker 1: My question, Professor Small. Some people say that it's it's 2991 02:43:33,440 --> 02:43:36,400 Speaker 1: because of its approximates to some of the Sahale nations. 2992 02:43:36,440 --> 02:43:37,880 Speaker 1: That's probably what he's real targeting. 2993 02:43:38,040 --> 02:43:40,480 Speaker 4: I'm sure that's a part of it as well, because 2994 02:43:41,280 --> 02:43:44,520 Speaker 4: if you notice the al Qaeda, much of the so 2995 02:43:44,720 --> 02:43:48,440 Speaker 4: called al Qaeda which they created was actually operating in 2996 02:43:48,520 --> 02:43:50,800 Speaker 4: the northeast where the bombing took place. That was in 2997 02:43:50,879 --> 02:43:54,400 Speaker 4: the northwest, right near the border of Niger and the 2998 02:43:54,480 --> 02:43:55,640 Speaker 4: border of Bikina Fossil. 2999 02:43:56,080 --> 02:43:57,600 Speaker 7: But we know what we're dealing with. 3000 02:43:57,760 --> 02:44:01,040 Speaker 4: We don't have to be re educate catered on the 3001 02:44:01,160 --> 02:44:04,760 Speaker 4: intention of the white man. We don't have to be 3002 02:44:04,920 --> 02:44:08,960 Speaker 4: re educated on the intentions of America towards Africa. America 3003 02:44:09,040 --> 02:44:13,960 Speaker 4: is an imperialist state. It lives off of imperialist dominance. 3004 02:44:13,480 --> 02:44:16,400 Speaker 7: And stealing the raw material of other people. It does 3005 02:44:16,520 --> 02:44:17,160 Speaker 7: that through. 3006 02:44:17,160 --> 02:44:21,360 Speaker 4: Death and threats and intimidation. Why do we have to 3007 02:44:21,520 --> 02:44:25,520 Speaker 4: constantly have that reaffirm for us? And that's because we're 3008 02:44:25,560 --> 02:44:29,520 Speaker 4: not studying history. History would tell you that that's the 3009 02:44:29,600 --> 02:44:33,240 Speaker 4: only relationship that Europe and America has ever had to Africa, 3010 02:44:33,680 --> 02:44:36,160 Speaker 4: and they have not created any other kind of relationship, 3011 02:44:36,240 --> 02:44:37,960 Speaker 4: even the opportunities were there. 3012 02:44:39,920 --> 02:44:42,080 Speaker 7: So we have to just deal with what it is. 3013 02:44:42,200 --> 02:44:46,680 Speaker 4: You got a bunch of criminals running a nation, using 3014 02:44:46,760 --> 02:44:49,760 Speaker 4: the military of that nation to extort from other people. 3015 02:44:49,840 --> 02:44:51,760 Speaker 4: That's what they're trying to do in Venezuela. They want 3016 02:44:51,760 --> 02:44:54,359 Speaker 4: the oil of Venezuela. This has nothing to do with drugs, 3017 02:44:54,840 --> 02:44:58,680 Speaker 4: because it was George Bush, the father who created the 3018 02:44:58,800 --> 02:45:02,920 Speaker 4: drug cartel that the CIA based in Venezuela back in 3019 02:45:03,000 --> 02:45:06,800 Speaker 4: the day when while they were running the media in 3020 02:45:06,920 --> 02:45:10,240 Speaker 4: and the other cartels out of Columbia under the guys 3021 02:45:10,720 --> 02:45:12,879 Speaker 4: that if we created the CIA can run this one 3022 02:45:12,920 --> 02:45:17,840 Speaker 4: and make it look like we an undercover cartel. We 3023 02:45:17,959 --> 02:45:21,320 Speaker 4: know who's bringing the drugs into our community, and it 3024 02:45:21,440 --> 02:45:25,400 Speaker 4: was the government of the United States, and that has 3025 02:45:25,440 --> 02:45:27,680 Speaker 4: been proven and proven over and over in all kinds 3026 02:45:27,720 --> 02:45:32,080 Speaker 4: of documents and government documents and statements. But decas and 3027 02:45:32,160 --> 02:45:35,880 Speaker 4: decades CIA agents have come out and spoken out against 3028 02:45:35,920 --> 02:45:39,359 Speaker 4: it on the internet, and only we still think. 3029 02:45:40,879 --> 02:45:41,880 Speaker 3: Did that really happen? 3030 02:45:42,640 --> 02:45:42,760 Speaker 5: Right? 3031 02:45:42,840 --> 02:45:45,160 Speaker 1: Hold up for Professor Small, We got to step aside 3032 02:45:45,160 --> 02:45:47,000 Speaker 1: for our last break, and twenty three minutes away from 3033 02:45:47,040 --> 02:45:48,840 Speaker 1: the top down family still got some more folks want 3034 02:45:48,879 --> 02:45:50,080 Speaker 1: to talk to you, You want to reach out to 3035 02:45:50,080 --> 02:45:53,040 Speaker 1: Professor Small as we planned outlook for twenty twenty six, 3036 02:45:53,240 --> 02:45:56,000 Speaker 1: hit us up at eight hundred four five zero seventy 3037 02:45:56,000 --> 02:45:58,160 Speaker 1: eight seventy six.

We live in the United States 3074 02:48:02,360 --> 02:48:07,560 Speaker 4: of America. It is structured this way, all right. It 3075 02:48:07,680 --> 02:48:12,119 Speaker 4: is structured economically this way. It is structure civiically this way. Now, 3076 02:48:12,320 --> 02:48:16,440 Speaker 4: if we're going to survive this thing, we better master 3077 02:48:16,600 --> 02:48:22,440 Speaker 4: the environment that we are in. You cannot be in 3078 02:48:22,560 --> 02:48:25,360 Speaker 4: the desert and pretending you are in a river because 3079 02:48:25,360 --> 02:48:29,480 Speaker 4: you're going to die of thirst.

We have 3082 02:48:37,959 --> 02:48:41,240 Speaker 4: been here for hundreds of years. We have built institutions. 3083 02:48:41,800 --> 02:48:44,000 Speaker 4: Some of them have done very well, some have not 3084 02:48:44,480 --> 02:48:46,840 Speaker 4: done so well. Some have done well in this time 3085 02:48:46,920 --> 02:48:51,080 Speaker 4: and less well in this time. But they are there. Now, 3086 02:48:51,240 --> 02:48:54,600 Speaker 4: how do we best utilize it? And what I'm saying 3087 02:48:54,640 --> 02:48:57,320 Speaker 4: the young man who started talking about the Gary, Indiana, 3088 02:48:57,440 --> 02:48:59,760 Speaker 4: we need to look at the findings that came out 3089 02:48:59,760 --> 02:49:01,840 Speaker 4: of again, because a lot of what came out of 3090 02:49:01,879 --> 02:49:05,039 Speaker 4: Gary in the Enna in the seventies is still very 3091 02:49:05,200 --> 02:49:08,840 Speaker 4: useful to be implemented to David modifications. We need to 3092 02:49:08,920 --> 02:49:12,280 Speaker 4: look at the Black CAUCUSUS Plan of nineteen eighty two 3093 02:49:12,879 --> 02:49:16,360 Speaker 4: on Black leadership in the family and study some of 3094 02:49:16,400 --> 02:49:19,400 Speaker 4: the proposals for the solutions. But the one thing we've 3095 02:49:19,400 --> 02:49:23,959 Speaker 4: got to be very clear on this is about economics, politics, 3096 02:49:24,200 --> 02:49:28,200 Speaker 4: and culture. And you must be guided by some kind 3097 02:49:28,200 --> 02:49:33,240 Speaker 4: of spiritual, ethical moral foundation that makes up your character. Now, 3098 02:49:33,280 --> 02:49:36,320 Speaker 4: you ain't gonna get away from those four elements. If 3099 02:49:36,360 --> 02:49:39,360 Speaker 4: you're going to try to build a community, build families 3100 02:49:40,240 --> 02:49:44,200 Speaker 4: that will survive and compete against the other communities, and 3101 02:49:44,320 --> 02:49:48,800 Speaker 4: families that are surviving competing for the same resources with you, 3102 02:49:49,959 --> 02:49:52,840 Speaker 4: and your children are not equipped and trained and tool 3103 02:49:53,480 --> 02:49:57,959 Speaker 4: to take advantage of the resources and another group's children are, 3104 02:49:58,400 --> 02:50:01,440 Speaker 4: then we're going to be the losers. And complaining about 3105 02:50:01,480 --> 02:50:04,280 Speaker 4: other people is not going to help that situation. We 3106 02:50:04,440 --> 02:50:06,960 Speaker 4: got to figure a way how do we teach our 3107 02:50:07,000 --> 02:50:10,720 Speaker 4: young people to become the plumbers, the painters, the electricianists, 3108 02:50:11,120 --> 02:50:15,920 Speaker 4: the brick layers, the competence again, so that we can 3109 02:50:16,040 --> 02:50:21,840 Speaker 4: control the economics in the community where we live. There's 3110 02:50:21,959 --> 02:50:27,400 Speaker 4: nothing extraordinary about that. The extraordinaryiness is to understand that 3111 02:50:27,560 --> 02:50:31,520 Speaker 4: we need the collective action. We need economic empowerment, we 3112 02:50:31,680 --> 02:50:37,080 Speaker 4: need strategic political participation, and we need to focus on 3113 02:50:37,360 --> 02:50:41,720 Speaker 4: the mentorship of our youth. And we have institutions like 3114 02:50:41,800 --> 02:50:44,840 Speaker 4: the churches and the moscas and the sororities and the 3115 02:50:44,879 --> 02:50:51,760 Speaker 4: fraternities and the lodgests who own physical buildings where many 3116 02:50:51,959 --> 02:50:57,960 Speaker 4: of these programs can take place. I don't know any 3117 02:50:58,000 --> 02:51:01,800 Speaker 4: other way to play what needs to he said. And 3118 02:51:01,920 --> 02:51:06,960 Speaker 4: it doesn't matter whether you're an Africanist nationalist, a Democratic 3119 02:51:07,040 --> 02:51:10,640 Speaker 4: Party member or Republican Party member. If you're talking about 3120 02:51:12,640 --> 02:51:15,480 Speaker 4: the survival of the black community and the empowerment of 3121 02:51:15,520 --> 02:51:19,080 Speaker 4: the next generation, then those elements I just mentioned has 3122 02:51:19,160 --> 02:51:22,120 Speaker 4: to be apropos and the tools that you're bringing to 3123 02:51:22,240 --> 02:51:26,080 Speaker 4: the table to use, you know. 3124 02:51:26,160 --> 02:51:28,840 Speaker 1: All right thirteen away from the top of our Professor 3125 02:51:28,920 --> 02:51:32,560 Speaker 1: Small Tony's callers from Seattle, Washington out the Great Northwest 3126 02:51:32,600 --> 02:51:36,240 Speaker 1: hes online five at Grand Rising Habari Gani, Tony, your 3127 02:51:36,320 --> 02:51:43,320 Speaker 1: question of your comment for a professor, Uh, do you. 3128 02:51:43,400 --> 02:51:46,840 Speaker 19: Think we should have any more or should we start 3129 02:51:46,920 --> 02:51:51,440 Speaker 19: up any more power talking conference like we had I 3130 02:51:51,520 --> 02:51:53,520 Speaker 19: think before COVID hit. 3131 02:51:57,320 --> 02:51:58,959 Speaker 7: After your car for male, car. 3132 02:52:01,360 --> 02:52:01,600 Speaker 6: For you. 3133 02:52:02,680 --> 02:52:06,279 Speaker 7: Okay, okay, yeah.

Well, 3145 02:52:45,360 --> 02:52:48,359 Speaker 4: the more we come together to discuss what the problems 3146 02:52:48,400 --> 02:52:51,640 Speaker 4: are and to look at the solutions that's available and 3147 02:52:51,760 --> 02:52:54,640 Speaker 4: come up with new solutions, I think the better. So 3148 02:52:54,800 --> 02:52:59,280 Speaker 4: those Power conferences was helpful and useful. The Gary coming 3149 02:52:59,320 --> 02:53:02,760 Speaker 4: together with heful and useful. The Black Power conferences were 3150 02:53:02,800 --> 02:53:05,720 Speaker 4: healthy and useful. But we have to learn how to 3151 02:53:05,840 --> 02:53:11,400 Speaker 4: continue those things in different formats because we want to 3152 02:53:11,879 --> 02:53:16,400 Speaker 4: move towards the solving of the problems, identifying the problems, 3153 02:53:16,920 --> 02:53:20,320 Speaker 4: looking at the elements available to solve the problems, looking 3154 02:53:20,440 --> 02:53:23,440 Speaker 4: at plants and solution to the resolution of those problems 3155 02:53:23,720 --> 02:53:25,960 Speaker 4: and then find a where the best implement them and 3156 02:53:26,080 --> 02:53:29,320 Speaker 4: who's better to implement them, like we were doing any 3157 02:53:29,360 --> 02:53:34,360 Speaker 4: other business situation. The laws are the same, but we 3158 02:53:34,520 --> 02:53:35,640 Speaker 4: have to learn and use. 3159 02:53:35,560 --> 02:53:40,959 Speaker 1: Them, right, I mean, just charm in here, Tony. It's 3160 02:53:41,000 --> 02:53:44,720 Speaker 1: on a consideration. As you recall it, we sort of 3161 02:53:44,760 --> 02:53:47,080 Speaker 1: put it on pause because of COVID. But now we've 3162 02:53:47,120 --> 02:53:50,000 Speaker 1: got this new strain of flu that's taking place and 3163 02:53:50,480 --> 02:53:53,360 Speaker 1: nobody's talking about it. But doctor Velvet Bowles is going 3164 02:53:53,400 --> 02:53:55,520 Speaker 1: to be here next week to explain because our community 3165 02:53:56,000 --> 02:53:59,600 Speaker 1: will be impacted these things come down, we get impacted 3166 02:53:59,640 --> 02:54:02,560 Speaker 1: worse and the other groups, especially the elderly in our community. 3167 02:54:02,640 --> 02:54:04,360 Speaker 1: So she's going to be here next week. So we're 3168 02:54:04,440 --> 02:54:07,680 Speaker 1: keeping an eye on this this new strain that it's 3169 02:54:07,959 --> 02:54:11,600 Speaker 1: really rising and it's it's really impacting as I mentioned, 3170 02:54:11,640 --> 02:54:14,800 Speaker 1: all the people, especially our community, but the government is 3171 02:54:14,840 --> 02:54:17,400 Speaker 1: not talking about So doctor Velva Bulls doctor v will 3172 02:54:17,440 --> 02:54:19,080 Speaker 1: be here next week. She can talk about that and 3173 02:54:19,160 --> 02:54:21,760 Speaker 1: explain that and share what the information that she knows. 3174 02:54:22,680 --> 02:54:27,680 Speaker 19: One more question, you go, uh, where the Godfather of 3175 02:54:27,800 --> 02:54:29,800 Speaker 19: Harlem will let come back. 3176 02:54:30,320 --> 02:54:33,720 Speaker 4: Is that overwhel you know that we're gonna do. I 3177 02:54:33,760 --> 02:54:36,040 Speaker 4: think they said it's starting up in March. We're going 3178 02:54:36,120 --> 02:54:39,760 Speaker 4: to do four more episodes to try to close out 3179 02:54:39,879 --> 02:54:40,800 Speaker 4: the storylines. 3180 02:54:42,840 --> 02:54:44,039 Speaker 7: We would wish it would. 3181 02:54:43,840 --> 02:54:47,360 Speaker 4: Come back more fully, but you know it was it 3182 02:54:47,480 --> 02:54:49,800 Speaker 4: went too much against the grain of the system with 3183 02:54:49,920 --> 02:54:54,160 Speaker 4: its blackness and the victory, right, So we didn't get 3184 02:54:54,200 --> 02:54:58,440 Speaker 4: the awards, you know what I'm saying. They we got 3185 02:54:58,520 --> 02:55:02,880 Speaker 4: the viewership across the world, but they did not want 3186 02:55:02,920 --> 02:55:08,720 Speaker 4: to really raise up that instrument, and we did a lot. 3187 02:55:08,600 --> 02:55:11,160 Speaker 7: Of others in there really was history. You know. 3188 02:55:11,720 --> 02:55:13,640 Speaker 4: Of course, it's a movie, so you're going to take 3189 02:55:13,720 --> 02:55:17,879 Speaker 4: agency with the fantasy and the folklore. But we tried 3190 02:55:17,920 --> 02:55:22,040 Speaker 4: to keep a strain of history throughout, especially looking at 3191 02:55:22,080 --> 02:55:24,960 Speaker 4: the civil rights development from the time of Adam and 3192 02:55:25,040 --> 02:55:28,360 Speaker 4: his fighting in Hallam to now. And even that mister Johnson, 3193 02:55:29,040 --> 02:55:33,920 Speaker 4: you know, was fighting to keep the black community in 3194 02:55:34,160 --> 02:55:36,520 Speaker 4: black hands. He wasn't fighting used to take over the 3195 02:55:36,600 --> 02:55:39,960 Speaker 4: drug trade over numbers straight. He wanted to make sure 3196 02:55:40,000 --> 02:55:41,480 Speaker 4: that the black community was run. 3197 02:55:41,400 --> 02:55:42,080 Speaker 7: By black people. 3198 02:55:42,560 --> 02:55:45,640 Speaker 4: That was the fight he had with the organized crime 3199 02:55:45,760 --> 02:55:49,360 Speaker 4: elements from other ethnic groups and the government. Because the 3200 02:55:49,400 --> 02:55:52,920 Speaker 4: government sided with the other ethnic groups and tried to 3201 02:55:53,000 --> 02:55:56,279 Speaker 4: take control of the black community. Hallm was a prototype, 3202 02:55:56,320 --> 02:55:59,279 Speaker 4: but the same thing was happening in Chicago and Detroit, 3203 02:56:00,000 --> 02:56:03,920 Speaker 4: Saint Lewis in LA almost simultaneously. 3204 02:56:05,959 --> 02:56:07,879 Speaker 1: And for those of you who don't know, Thanks Tony, 3205 02:56:07,920 --> 02:56:10,240 Speaker 1: thanks you call Professor Small as a consultant on that 3206 02:56:10,440 --> 02:56:13,200 Speaker 1: that the series The Godfather of Harlem. You should you 3207 02:56:13,320 --> 02:56:16,160 Speaker 1: really check it out. You'll enjoy it. But a question 3208 02:56:16,280 --> 02:56:19,400 Speaker 1: for you, doctor the Small. You said that, and I 3209 02:56:19,480 --> 02:56:21,680 Speaker 1: know it didn't receive any awards from the other folks. 3210 02:56:21,920 --> 02:56:25,680 Speaker 1: We don't need them for validation. But the NAACP Image 3211 02:56:25,680 --> 02:56:26,120 Speaker 1: Awards that. 3212 02:56:27,680 --> 02:56:31,000 Speaker 4: Get the NCP Award for Music for the music track 3213 02:56:31,160 --> 02:56:34,600 Speaker 4: that Swiss Beat did. He did the music, the soundtrack, 3214 02:56:35,320 --> 02:56:37,000 Speaker 4: and the n c T is the only one that 3215 02:56:37,120 --> 02:56:39,000 Speaker 4: recognized us and gave us an award. 3216 02:56:40,080 --> 02:56:41,920 Speaker 1: And they went the safe route. They went for the 3217 02:56:42,000 --> 02:56:45,080 Speaker 1: music right instead of the acting and the storyline. Okay, 3218 02:56:45,440 --> 02:56:48,160 Speaker 1: got it. I'll leave that right there ight away. From 3219 02:56:48,200 --> 02:56:50,880 Speaker 1: the time he let's go to Alabama, Everlasting's calling this 3220 02:56:51,040 --> 02:56:54,640 Speaker 1: brother Everlasting's online one grand rising Brother Everlasting around with 3221 02:56:54,800 --> 02:56:56,039 Speaker 1: Professor James Small. 3222 02:56:58,000 --> 02:57:01,440 Speaker 5: Doing I just wanted to write quick select, there's a 3223 02:57:01,480 --> 02:57:05,200 Speaker 5: lot of discrepancy about when you were saying about joining 3224 02:57:05,240 --> 02:57:07,840 Speaker 5: the military. Now it's not really that much of a discrepancy. 3225 02:57:07,879 --> 02:57:11,680 Speaker 5: It's really simple. Your position was, you go into the military, 3226 02:57:11,760 --> 02:57:14,440 Speaker 5: you get the training, and you get the military. Fine, 3227 02:57:14,480 --> 02:57:17,360 Speaker 5: it's one aspect. Now the other aspect for the other people, 3228 02:57:18,120 --> 02:57:20,880 Speaker 5: the discriptancy about is that they don't might want to 3229 02:57:20,959 --> 02:57:22,560 Speaker 5: go over to the war because they don't want to 3230 02:57:22,600 --> 02:57:26,039 Speaker 5: kill innocent women, men and children based on the war 3231 02:57:26,160 --> 02:57:30,880 Speaker 5: that's basically fueled by the banks, the multi national corporations, 3232 02:57:31,200 --> 02:57:35,840 Speaker 5: and the military industrial conflict complex. So both those things 3233 02:57:35,879 --> 02:57:37,760 Speaker 5: are right, I mean no one that is no right 3234 02:57:37,879 --> 02:57:39,600 Speaker 5: or wrong. It's just a matter of choice. So we 3235 02:57:39,680 --> 02:57:41,720 Speaker 5: don't really have to go keep going on that because 3236 02:57:41,760 --> 02:57:44,760 Speaker 5: it's very simple one choice, because every every force has 3237 02:57:44,840 --> 02:57:48,080 Speaker 5: two possibilities. And I think it's you know, and like 3238 02:57:48,200 --> 02:57:51,520 Speaker 5: I said before, that's your position is one position, the 3239 02:57:51,600 --> 02:57:53,960 Speaker 5: other position is another position. That doesn't mean one is 3240 02:57:54,080 --> 02:57:56,160 Speaker 5: right one is wrong. As two positions then right quick, 3241 02:57:56,200 --> 02:57:59,240 Speaker 5: I just want to say that, like in the hollow 3242 02:57:59,240 --> 02:58:02,480 Speaker 5: of Renaissance, right where people have to realize would if 3243 02:58:02,520 --> 02:58:05,240 Speaker 5: there would have been no halland Renaissance without the help 3244 02:58:05,280 --> 02:58:09,120 Speaker 5: of the underworld. Just like Langston Hughes was a dishwasher 3245 02:58:09,760 --> 02:58:12,720 Speaker 5: and when Casher Holds King seen his talent, he gave 3246 02:58:12,800 --> 02:58:15,680 Speaker 5: him one thousand dollars in order for him to keep writing. Now, 3247 02:58:15,720 --> 02:58:17,760 Speaker 5: a thousand dollars back then was a lot of money. 3248 02:58:18,200 --> 02:58:20,680 Speaker 5: So what we have to do also, we can't leave 3249 02:58:20,760 --> 02:58:23,960 Speaker 5: out the element of the underworld also, because that's another 3250 02:58:24,000 --> 02:58:26,440 Speaker 5: element that we have to use also in order for 3251 02:58:26,560 --> 02:58:29,080 Speaker 5: us to fight this water. We'll fight now against this system. 3252 02:58:29,520 --> 02:58:31,320 Speaker 5: I just want to make it out. Appreciate everything that 3253 02:58:31,440 --> 02:58:32,960 Speaker 5: you do, and like I said, it's not an attack 3254 02:58:33,040 --> 02:58:34,720 Speaker 5: on which you know, it's just your position. 3255 02:58:35,879 --> 02:58:38,200 Speaker 7: And I agree with you on most of that. 3256 02:58:38,360 --> 02:58:41,600 Speaker 4: My thing is, how do we use what's available to 3257 02:58:41,680 --> 02:58:44,480 Speaker 4: better our people. I don't care whether it's the military, 3258 02:58:44,560 --> 02:58:47,440 Speaker 4: police or whatever. How do we use it forget about 3259 02:58:47,440 --> 02:58:50,600 Speaker 4: what we know, what their agenda is. How do we 3260 02:58:50,920 --> 02:58:55,080 Speaker 4: use these things to get ourselves in position where we 3261 02:58:55,240 --> 02:58:57,800 Speaker 4: can't be used by them? 3262 02:59:00,080 --> 02:59:00,280 Speaker 6: And that. 3263 02:59:02,680 --> 02:59:04,480 Speaker 5: The other pudiction what I'm saying, where people say they 3264 02:59:04,520 --> 02:59:07,199 Speaker 5: want they don't want to go because they say that, Okay, 3265 02:59:07,240 --> 02:59:08,840 Speaker 5: well I don't want to go over there and kill 3266 02:59:08,959 --> 02:59:11,240 Speaker 5: innocent women, children know. 3267 02:59:11,320 --> 02:59:13,640 Speaker 7: And I appreciate that and understand that. 3268 02:59:14,480 --> 02:59:17,360 Speaker 5: But at the same time, before money, there's not no 3269 02:59:17,520 --> 02:59:19,560 Speaker 5: real war that they're somebody trying to tack. 3270 02:59:19,600 --> 02:59:23,440 Speaker 4: The United understand all of that. But I can count 3271 02:59:23,640 --> 02:59:27,359 Speaker 4: more dead African American men and women in the streets 3272 02:59:27,400 --> 02:59:30,560 Speaker 4: of any of our community every year than it's getting 3273 02:59:30,680 --> 02:59:34,119 Speaker 4: killed in that war in Eastern Europe right now. Because 3274 02:59:34,200 --> 02:59:36,599 Speaker 4: we have not taken control of our community. 3275 02:59:38,120 --> 02:59:38,720 Speaker 7: We don't call that. 3276 02:59:42,360 --> 02:59:44,080 Speaker 1: But let me ask you there some professional and just 3277 02:59:44,640 --> 02:59:47,240 Speaker 1: let me just put a cherry on that. Jeronimo Pratt. 3278 02:59:47,920 --> 02:59:51,520 Speaker 1: Jerimo Pratt went to Vietnam. He used the information that 3279 02:59:51,600 --> 02:59:54,879 Speaker 1: he learned in the service and came back and used 3280 02:59:54,920 --> 02:59:57,280 Speaker 1: it for it to help us in our community and 3281 02:59:57,440 --> 02:59:59,600 Speaker 1: other brothers. But they're just are not well known as 3282 02:59:59,680 --> 03:00:02,960 Speaker 1: Jerna who who were in the service and what the 3283 03:00:03,400 --> 03:00:05,560 Speaker 1: learning the military, they came back and shared it with 3284 03:00:05,680 --> 03:00:08,800 Speaker 1: us to help build our community. So I understand where 3285 03:00:08,800 --> 03:00:09,320 Speaker 1: you're coming from. 3286 03:00:09,360 --> 03:00:09,879 Speaker 19: And of. 3287 03:00:11,440 --> 03:00:13,760 Speaker 7: Course I was in the military. 3288 03:00:13,920 --> 03:00:16,959 Speaker 4: I refused while in the military, I refused to fight 3289 03:00:17,040 --> 03:00:19,600 Speaker 4: and did not many of us did, and we took 3290 03:00:19,680 --> 03:00:22,520 Speaker 4: the consequences. You know, you've got to make choices. 3291 03:00:22,560 --> 03:00:25,200 Speaker 7: But we can't continue to. 3292 03:00:25,320 --> 03:00:28,720 Speaker 4: Let other people utilize instruments of this country to take 3293 03:00:28,760 --> 03:00:32,400 Speaker 4: control of our community while we sit back and complaining 3294 03:00:32,440 --> 03:00:35,160 Speaker 4: about how they're brutalizing us. So now we wind about 3295 03:00:35,440 --> 03:00:39,600 Speaker 4: the other the non white, white skinned people taking over 3296 03:00:39,680 --> 03:00:42,959 Speaker 4: the police forces in our community, and we still complaining 3297 03:00:43,080 --> 03:00:45,480 Speaker 4: like it's the nineteen forties about. 3298 03:00:45,400 --> 03:00:46,440 Speaker 7: The Klan attitude. 3299 03:00:46,520 --> 03:00:50,720 Speaker 4: No, we need to find it. Whatever pathway gets us 3300 03:00:50,840 --> 03:00:54,040 Speaker 4: to get in charge. If you got another pathway. 3301 03:00:54,120 --> 03:00:56,800 Speaker 7: Use it. I got you back on it. 3302 03:00:57,760 --> 03:01:01,760 Speaker 4: But let's use every pathway possible for us to take 3303 03:01:01,920 --> 03:01:05,200 Speaker 4: over the communities in which we live, for us the 3304 03:01:05,320 --> 03:01:08,520 Speaker 4: police the communities in which we live, for us to 3305 03:01:08,600 --> 03:01:11,600 Speaker 4: be the fireman in the community in which we live, 3306 03:01:11,879 --> 03:01:14,400 Speaker 4: for us to be the school teachers in the community 3307 03:01:14,440 --> 03:01:17,920 Speaker 4: in which we live. And we can't do that by 3308 03:01:18,000 --> 03:01:23,640 Speaker 4: glorifying poverty, by glorifying being unemployed and having an. 3309 03:01:23,520 --> 03:01:26,920 Speaker 7: Excuse for it. There's no longer an excuse. 3310 03:01:26,560 --> 03:01:29,560 Speaker 4: For any of that, because our job is to save 3311 03:01:29,800 --> 03:01:31,640 Speaker 4: our people and our family. 3312 03:01:32,920 --> 03:01:34,680 Speaker 7: But whatever means necessary. 3313 03:01:36,280 --> 03:01:38,840 Speaker 1: H Shay.

I 3318 03:01:49,600 --> 03:01:51,520 Speaker 4: don't care how many bombs they they they can drive. 3319 03:01:51,840 --> 03:01:55,039 Speaker 4: They're not scaring the young people of Africa. These young 3320 03:01:55,080 --> 03:01:57,480 Speaker 4: people are going to be free no matter what. They're 3321 03:01:57,520 --> 03:01:58,960 Speaker 4: not scaring us here in America. 3322 03:01:59,560 --> 03:02:02,240 Speaker 7: We're not afraid of them. We've proven that we'll fight on. 3323 03:02:02,400 --> 03:02:05,440 Speaker 4: Every corner, every day of the week to make changes. 3324 03:02:05,560 --> 03:02:09,040 Speaker 4: We've made this a better country because we've attacked the 3325 03:02:09,120 --> 03:02:10,920 Speaker 4: system and forced it to change itself. 3326 03:02:11,360 --> 03:02:12,840 Speaker 7: And we have to continue to do that. 3327 03:02:13,480 --> 03:02:16,000 Speaker 4: But we have to also be more focused on making 3328 03:02:16,040 --> 03:02:19,240 Speaker 4: sure the black community is protected, that the black community 3329 03:02:19,280 --> 03:02:22,240 Speaker 4: can find employment, that the black youth is getting training, 3330 03:02:22,560 --> 03:02:26,160 Speaker 4: and that the black woman is protected. That's our job, 3331 03:02:27,240 --> 03:02:29,440 Speaker 4: all right, whatever I mean, it's necessary to get that 3332 03:02:29,640 --> 03:02:31,720 Speaker 4: job done. We need to be willing to do it 3333 03:02:31,800 --> 03:02:33,240 Speaker 4: even if it costs us our lives. 3334 03:02:34,360 --> 03:02:36,520 Speaker 1: All Right, family, the you got your marching orders for 3335 03:02:36,560 --> 03:02:38,720 Speaker 1: twenty twenty six.
