1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: So I don't know if I'll ever forget the feeling

2
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:08,720
Speaker 1: of that pit in my stomach, that absolute terror and

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: adrenaline when some kid is like I saw good, I'll

4
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:18,119
Speaker 1: see you after school. Some sort of altercation happening, maybe

5
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:21,440
Speaker 1: even it was an accident. Point is it's going down.

6
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:25,599
Speaker 1: The only question is am I gonna have to face

7
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 1: this food by myself? Politics? How you so little right now?

8

Speaker 1: help you understand what an ally is as far as

11
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: nation states go. Foreign policy. It's a big turn people

00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 1: running for what you with your stance on foreign policy.

13
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: It's like the most complicated question you could be asked.

14
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: We want to lay it all out, but first you're

15
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: sweating because it's fifth period, and maybe everybody saw at school,

Speaker 1: to which how many of his friends is gonna jump in?

26
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: Are we gonna just be able to square up? Is

00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 1: it just gonna be and him? Or are you gonna

28
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,240

31
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 1: Who says rumbull? You need to know who's gonna help

32
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,839
Speaker 1: out if things go down at the end of the day.

33
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: Foreign policy since post World War two, actually World War One?

34
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 1: Who's gonna jump in if we're fighting now? As for

35
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: me and my house, I'm personally I'm a buck fifty

36
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:44,399
Speaker 1: soaking wet, and I have been for many years. I've

37
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: been blessed with them East African jeans. I'm literally the

38
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: same way I was when I was in high school.

39
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I've tried the gate weight just just don't work.

40
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 1: So I'm the type that no look at, I got

41
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: no delusions of grandeur. I'm not finished everything for me

42
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: is a metrical warfare because I can't square up with

43
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: none of these fools. I don't know how many punches

44
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 1: I could take. I take no pride in that. So

45
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: for me, I'm not waiting until after school. I'm sliding in.

46
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,639
Speaker 1: I'm figuring out who you got for fifth period. I'm

47
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: gonna run over there and be like, talk to the teacher.

48
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: Oh hey, Mr Terry says she needed to borrow one

49
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 1: of your dictionaries. And I'm a good student. I'm an

50
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: honor roll student. I'm just a little art nerd. I'll

51
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: just be here. I'm not I'm not involved in the

52
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: gang life. Didn't look I'm a nice kid. So all

53
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do is go head over there and grab

54
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 1: that dictionary and just happen to walk by this fool's

55
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: desk and then well, pole and just break this fool's

56
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: jaw in front of everybody with the dictionary. Because I'm

57
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: not waiting till after school. I'm not giving you a

58
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: chance to jump me, and I'm not giving you a

59
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: chance to let me get my behind kicked in front

60
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 1: of everybody. I'm not like that. I'm waiting at at lunch.

61
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: I'm finding your lunch table, and I'm breaking your face

62
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: with one of the trades because you see how little

63
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: I am. It ain't gonna be fair anyway. I'm not

64
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,119
Speaker 1: wasting time. And then what happens is maybe I gets

65
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: suspended for a couple of days, maybe even a couple

66
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: of weeks. All I know is the whole school. No,

67
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: that little skinny boy right there, Look, look he ain't

68
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: really he's a civilian, ain't really part of all this stuff.

69
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: But I tell you what, he ain't no easy come up,

70
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: that boy fight back. He got hort like the old

71
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: foods sound from l A. So hort, we say hard,

72
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: like you parked the cord. You know what I'm saying, Yeah,

73
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: parked the car around the corner. Homie, Hey, little nigga

74
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:40,280
Speaker 1: got hurt. That is so l A. Please No, I'm

75
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 1: not condoning any of these actions, So don't do this.

76
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: One thing we all know is that just because y'all

77
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,599
Speaker 1: both crips don't mean you get along. Just because y'all

78
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 1: all bloods don't mean y'all get along. There could be

79
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: some sort of thing that happened, maybe even to your

80
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: older brothers and your older sisters that now that y'all

81
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: old enough. Now that y'all in high school, you learned

82
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 1: that you and your two neighborhoods actually don't get along.

83
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: You may not even know. The thing was so interesting

84
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: about inner city life is almost all of us went

85
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: to the same head start program. We was in the

86
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: same we had the same babysitters, We was in the

87
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: same free and reducing lunch program. We went to the

88
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 1: same elementary school, hell, the same church, the same youth group.

89
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. It was in the same

90
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 1: children's choir. Because that's how complicated in the city life is.

91
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 1: Same vacation Bible school, the church I went to. I mean,

92
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna name no names, but like i mean,

93
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 1: our Sunday school teachers, their kids was active. Just didn't

94
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,280
Speaker 1: nobody know it, you know. And then maybe went off

95
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 1: to different middle schools. And now we're in high school.

96
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 1: And your recruitment happened when you was in middle school.

97
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 1: So now all of a sudden, you're banging that set.

98
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 1: I'm banging this set, or I'm not banging that set.

99
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: I'm just affiliated over here because it's where we're from,

100
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 1: because that's what my brother did. Now we got beef,

101
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 1: or sometimes the other way around happened. Maybe some of

102
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: the ogs went off to jail, we're happened to share

103
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 1: a cell block, ended up becoming friends in prison, and

104
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: then the word comes back down to the city that like, hey,

105
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: we squashed the beef at the ol G level, So

106
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: y'all cool, y'all stop shooting at each other. Maybe somebody

107
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: missed that memo and then acts upon some sort of

108
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: old beef that you ain't know about, and then now

109
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: these two sets got problems, or maybe there was some

110
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: sort of other situation to happen. Maybe the Russians moved in,

111
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 1: and the Russians are now controlling the flow of the

112
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 1: narcotics or the pills into the city. So now all

113
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: of a sudden, this historical beef that happened over some

114
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: sort of party who hit on the wrong old lady

115
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: now is seeing trivial because all of y'all are out

116
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: of business by these Russians. Or you didn't messed up.

117
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 1: This is one of my favorite ones. Or you didn't

118
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: messed up thinking that the Mexican dudes the Colos were

119
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: to connect because the Ciolos had the plug with Mexico

120
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: in the cartels and mafia and stuff because they was

121
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: getting they was carrying the weight from across the border.

122
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 1: You run up to homeboy. It turned out homeboy you

123
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 1: run up to ain't a part of Mexican mafia. He

124
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 1: actually mouled through to fool El Salvadorian. You don't know

125
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: no difference. You just nigket from the hood. They both

126
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: speak Spanish. I don't know. You didn't stepped into a

127
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: situation you ain't know nothing about. Now all of the sudden,

128
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 1: now you've got problems with the Vatos. These networks of

129
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: connections among hoods are very hard to navigate, and they

130
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: change every five to ten years. You don't know. You

131
00:07:36,720 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 1: just gotta know how to navigate it. Now, what I

132
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: got to do with politics, This is trying to understand

133
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: how the modern nation states, how they relate to other nations,

134
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 1: and how does an administration sort this out? Cabinet members

135
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 1: This is why cabinet membership is so important in the

136
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 1: way that you select them. You gotta have some shrewd

137
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 1: cats about this mug who understand the lay of the land,

138
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:51,680
Speaker 1: understand what's been happening all over the world. What's so

139
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 1: unique about America is we're changing our entire government every

140
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: four to six years. It's like brand new president, maybe

141
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 1: brand new chiefs of staff. It's enough to keep another

142
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 1: nation really unbalanced. You gotta like, there's no guarantee that

143
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: America is gonna jump in just because we said we

144
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: would jump in four years ago. So if you're making

145
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 1: your plans, you're another country trying to make your plans,

146
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: and you're counting on America's guns, America's money, America's trade. Yo,

147
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: you ought to be careful. You don't know who the

148
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: new president gonna be. So of course a country that

149
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: got like consider us competition, you know you kind of

150
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 1: like I kind of got a stake into who who

151
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: actually win this thing because you probably messing up my bag,

152
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: or if I get a new guy that decides the

153
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 1: old dude was too soft on you or on me.

154
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 1: I mean this this guy is a lot of applications.

155
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 1: You made me clear war. It's kind of like it's

156
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: a little you know, like you can't really make no

157
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: plans about your own future if you don't know this

158
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 1: trigger happy country where there's more guns than humans, you

159
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: feel might decide they don't like you no more Like

160
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: that's kind of a hard situation to be in, or

161
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,839
Speaker 1: they may decide they love you now. So you start

162
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 1: like we're good, and then you just kind of like, man,

163
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: I hope this dude get reelected because I want to

164
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 1: stay good with y'all. Like are we making money? And

165
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: we you know what I'm saying, And we're doing this

166
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: from the American side. You know, you have to be

167
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,680
Speaker 1: fully aware that the other country don't know about the

168
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 1: jockey and and and the inner attitude. We speak of

169
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 1: nations as if they're monolists. You know, China, everybody in

170
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 1: China think like this. Everybody in Russia think like this.

171
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: Everybody wrong think like this. Do everybody in America think

172
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 1: like quote unquote this, No, like we we don't all agree.

173
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 1: A matter of fact, that's the one thing we agree

174
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 1: on is the fact that don't none of us like

175
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: our government, and don't none of us agree as to

176
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 1: how to handle stuff outside of our borders as it

177
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: relates to like are we gonna protect them? What are

178
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 1: we gonna let them? Are we gonna let them sell

179
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 1: on our blocks? You're gonna charge y'all? Which is a

180
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,439
Speaker 1: whole other conversation, a whole other episode. We're gonna do

181
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 1: on tariffs, which is really fun because ultimately that's like

182
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,199
Speaker 1: you gotta pay me to sell on my block. It's

183
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's kind of extortion. Extortion that's legal

184
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: all my Libertarians in the house, Texas taxes are extortion. Anyway.

185
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: It's a scary thing. So you really need people that

186
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 1: are not gonna be in there into these meetings being

187
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: a hothead. You can't have somebody just walk in here.

188
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 1: It's already tense, especially when you're like a new administration.

189
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 1: You gotta prove who you are. You a uh, don't

190
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 1: get a twisted dog. I can throw hands, but let's

191
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: make this money. You feel me, Let's let's let's get

192
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,319
Speaker 1: this bread going. You know, maybe don't like the situation

193
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 1: we had before, y'all making too much money off us

194
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: or the other way around, where you like, hey, look here,

195
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 1: I don't feel like we're making enough on this situation.

196
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 1: I don't like. I don't like how this is going down.

197
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 1: You need somebody in your cabinet that's not gonna be

198
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 1: kind of angling for himself for herself, you know what

199
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like this is a difficult thing to really

200
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 1: figure out, and you gotta have access to all these

201
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:32,440
Speaker 1: other behind closed doors things, because again, you don't know

202
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: what's been discussed before you was there. You don't know

203
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: what the ogs was talking about. You don't know what

204
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: side deals have been being set up. You don't know.

205
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 1: But if none of this stuff makes sense, let me

206
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 1: make it as simple as this. The lunch tables dead

207
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 1: serious middle school. In high school, one of the most

208
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 1: you understand that first week of school, one of the

209
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 1: most important things to do is figure out where you're

210
00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: gonna sit at the lunch tables, because it's a out

211
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 1: about you and I I honestly remember, and I think

212
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: every school had this. You could survey the whole subcontinent

213
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: of your high school based on where people were sitting

214
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 1: for lunch. For us, where the thing called prep hill

215
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: on the hill. It was like we had this like

216
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: sloping staircase that were kind of like extended on the hill.

217
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: That was like the a SB kids the quote unquote

218
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: popular for us. It was like those are the white kids. Um,

219
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 1: of course they weren't just white kids, but it was

220
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: like whiteness. There was just preppy, you know what saying

221
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 1: rest we used to call it back then. They just

222
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 1: they fancy they got a little mold than us. Right,

223
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 1: there was the Asian tables, that's where all the Penois

224
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: and Filipinos where they all hung out. Most of my

225
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: school with Asian squad was Filipinos, so you sprinkle in

226
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 1: a few other type of agents, but anyway, they all

227
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: kind of blended into the Filipino population. We had a

228
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 1: section under the awning by the multi purpose room where

229
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 1: the Tongans and the Samoans kind of hung out, but

230
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: mostly Tongans. You have one side of the table with

231
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: like all the Latino like the Mexican dudes, and there

232
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 1: was other lunch sabs where the black people were right,

233
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: so we just you know, and then there was like

234
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,680
Speaker 1: the sports fools. There was this hip hop section where

235
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 1: we were just kind of freestyle where remember we used

236
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,199
Speaker 1: to go to like our teacher used to let the

237
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 1: wrestling room with all the wrestling masks. We're going there

238
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,839
Speaker 1: and teach ourself how to flare and windmill and who

239
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: have battles and such. But like you navigated the school

240
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:14,079
Speaker 1: based on the lunch tables and where you sat told

241
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,679
Speaker 1: us everything we needed to know about who you went

242
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: and who's gonna jump in ifever there's a problem. I

243
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 1: went to a rather tumulture with school, all those multi

244
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 1: ethnic we have some serious assok like serious like race riots.

245
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: We had to figure out who's on whose side. And

246
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 1: it started among like them Tonging hoods and the Latino hoods,

247
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 1: so us a little us black folks. We had to

248
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 1: make a calculation like, O, don't no man in Pacific

249
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: Islanders and nigs don't feel pain. I don't think you

250
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 1: ever want to be on the side of the wrong

251
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 1: side of the targetics. Obviously I don't think like this anymore,

252
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 1: but at the time, we had to make a calculation

253
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 1: who who we're gonna throw our lot in because let

254
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: me tell you what I don't want to do. I

255
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 1: am not trying to catch no Pacific islander fist to

256
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: my jaw. I just I don't understand why y'all are

257
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: as strong as you are. I'm not trying to get

258
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: into no like forchnology or genetics. I don't know. All

259
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: I know is you know what I can talk about

260
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 1: my brother in law. My brother in law's half Polly,

261
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 1: half black. This don't make no dog on sense. Why

262
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: strong you are? My homeboy? To Dashi, I can name

263
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: Tadashi to Dashi do music with me one of my

264
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 1: home boys, Flow and Samoan. I don't get why you're

265
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: so strong. I'm way off the rails here. The point

266
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 1: is we had to decide where you're gonna sit for lunch,

267
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 1: because that's gonna tell us you're gonna communicate to the

268
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 1: whole school what your situation is and how all of

269
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 1: it's gonna work out in the same way in the hood,

270
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: how navigating this stuff costs actual lives. These aren't abstract

271
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: ideas what an ally is like. The cost of these

272
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 1: things going wrong are in actual deaths. A good sort

273
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: of case study with be World War One. Now for

274
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: all you nonhistory nerds, let me let me, let me

275
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: put you on game. So Arch Duke Franz Ferdinand not

276
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 1: the band, I say, don't you know? You say you

277
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: don't know that song was a bob. I don't care

278
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:23,479
Speaker 1: what y'all say. But Arch Duke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated

279
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: by this kid right named Gabriello Priss up Right. He

280
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 1: was a member of this like Bosnian, like Serbian nationalist

281
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 1: group who was trying to unite the territories around like

282
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 1: ethnic Serbs under like Serbian control. It's just think of

283
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: it as like, you know, we have like serious race

284
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 1: problems here. They had them then too. They were just

285
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: much more ethnic than white supremacists. Is always weird for

286
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 1: me to as a black man, watching like white ethnic

287
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 1: groups beef with each other and call each other less

288
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 1: white than any other. Like I like, there's like Russian

289
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: white supremacists because other Russians ain't white enough. It's the

290
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 1: strangest thing I ever seen anyway, because white is a

291
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 1: social construct. So he was the Archbishop of Austria Hungary.

292
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:12,119
Speaker 1: So they was furious right now, Austrio hungry. This is

293
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 1: World War One. They clicked up with Germany. Germany right

294
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: now feeling froggy because you remember Germany been trying to

295
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,399
Speaker 1: take over Austria hungry for a while, you know, Kaiser

296
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 1: Wilhelm and them, like nig was hungry. You feel me

297
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 1: like he was like, yo, man, y'all looking like an

298
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:30,640
Speaker 1: easy come up. The problem is Russia got Serbia's back,

299
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 1: and Russia, I don't think people will understand. First of all,

300
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: the land mask that Russia is like it's Russia is

301
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 1: freakishly big and at the time they military cause them

302
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: fools be Mark, but Germany ain't no slouds to Germany

303
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: was throwing hands back then, dog like, throwing real hands

304
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: like we had never seen no military like Germany. Y'all

305
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 1: gotta remember them. Nick is almost one, Joe said, But

306
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 1: Austria hungry, got this stuff. Germany jump in. But if

307
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:11,199
Speaker 1: Germany jump in, that means Russia jumping in. And if

308
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 1: Russia jump in, that me needs people jump and if

309
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: these people, that mean next people jump in. Eventually whole

310
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 1: earth jumped in except for Africa. Were chilling. I don't

311
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:27,880
Speaker 1: know what they probably whoa. We was like, look, it's good,

312
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 1: let's give us a second. Leave us alone. You know

313
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Dang, y'all fight amongst each other, that speculation.

314
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 1: The point is all these countries jump in, and it's

315
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 1: it's it's because of how the Allied networks work out right,

316
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 1: Like you can't just be hitting on my homeboy like that.

317
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 1: We got this understanding here. In the past episode we

318
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 1: talked about like all the all the fun we did

319
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 1: back in the Middle East, and at some point we

320
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: got to revisit that. We got to talk about how

321
00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 1: the Iran Contra scandal and how that dead ass leads

322
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: right into the crack attack. I know Snowfall to show

323
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 1: how f X is about that, but like they're not.

324
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 1: Really the story is more about sat Who's it's freeway.

325
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:11,919
Speaker 1: Rick is is who's saying is based on it, But

326
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 1: like the story is more about him, not necessary to

327
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: politics around it. Like we really got to get into

328
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: how crap got on our streets because of the CIA,

329
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:23,640
Speaker 1: But all of that again is about being clicked up. Ultimately,

330
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,719
Speaker 1: Reagan and him was worried about quote unquote communism spreading

331
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,680
Speaker 1: in the America's because you're gonna sunk up the money,

332
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,120
Speaker 1: so we need to make sure the money don't get anyway.

333
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: The whole other thing, y'all remember but shar Allah aside

334
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,919
Speaker 1: when he was gassing his own folks in Syria. I

335
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: think I gave this example in the introductory episode. That's

336
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,400
Speaker 1: exactly what I'm talking about. Trump out here running with shooters.

337
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 1: You can't say ship, you gotta jump in. You can't

338
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:51,879
Speaker 1: jump in because you clicked up with his click. You

339
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 1: can't say nothing. All this stuff is like it's all confusing. Now,

340
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:59,239
Speaker 1: before before Trump was around, before Trump was trying to like,

341
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:00,919
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying to click up with Russia

342
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 1: when we was more like, look, kick rocks Russia, Like,

343
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 1: y'all need to get this ship together, because like I

344
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 1: don't trust y'all, you don't trust us. We got some

345
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,120
Speaker 1: long running beef, and this beef and running for even

346
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,880
Speaker 1: if it was a misunderstanding, they like it got too hot.

347
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 1: I don't I don't play with y'all. You stay at

348
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 1: our way, we stay out of yours. Trump kind of

349
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 1: gummed all that up and in the middle of that,

350
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: but Charla side was like file gas my own people.

351
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 1: But but the network too is too complicated. You feel

352
00:20:28,920 --> 00:21:00,879
Speaker 1: me now. Lastly, I want to talk about how this

353
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 1: stuff plays out, even not in just like big old wars,

354
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 1: but in real cultural moments, and why it's important to

355
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 1: understand how does foreign policy work. The assassination of Jamal Kashogi,

356
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,719
Speaker 1: so Jamal ka Shogi has happened last year, and that

357
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:22,640
Speaker 1: event like started a string of other events that really

358
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: capture not only what happens in the streets but also

359
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:33,639
Speaker 1: what happens in the government. So Jamaal ka Shogi was

360
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 1: popped in Turkey at at the embassy out there in Istanbul.

361
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 1: And the thing is like we're good with Turkey and

362
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,919
Speaker 1: he was and what we think happened and it's we

363
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 1: have good reason to think this is that the Crown

364
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 1: Prince Mohammed al Saman like green lit this nigger. It's

365
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: like the worst kept secret in the world that like

366
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:55,400
Speaker 1: the crown Prince and the family out in Saudi they

367
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 1: shoot and have no problem taking out dissonance. But to

368
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,160
Speaker 1: get real sticky, because we supposed to be good with saudeast,

369
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,199
Speaker 1: what're you supposed to do? But it's a big deal

370
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,880
Speaker 1: once you start shooting journalists because it says a lot

371
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: more about like how you feel about the press and

372
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 1: being able to move and do things that are like

373
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,119
Speaker 1: getting on with your if you could just kill the journalists,

374
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: and how dictatorships work without getting into the details of

375
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 1: like the Arab spring and like the Shiite and Sunni history,

376
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 1: which is also its own thing, like Saudi Arabia is

377
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 1: like super unpredictable when it comes to America, and I

378
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 1: think we really don't appreciate the long history and cultural

379
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: and tribal effect and how all that intersects with religion,

380
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 1: like how that works over there, Like I don't think

381
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: we get it. We see these buckets of like tribal, cultural,

382
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: religious as like their own buckets, rather than the way

383
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: that all this stuff overlaps. You know what I'm saying,

384
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 1: to form not only a national but an individual idea,

385
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 1: like I don't think we get out that works in

386
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: the same way how I freely say, because but I

387
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: just already told you I never gang banged the day

388
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: of my life. And I already told you all we

389
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: went to church, and I already told you I rapp

390
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 1: And I already told you I don't think you understand

391
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:16,680
Speaker 1: really how our identities overlapping against critical race theory, intersectionality.

392
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 1: I'm becoming a teacher right now. This ain't the point.

393
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 1: All we knew about Saudi Arabia was Niggadey got oil

394
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: and it's for sale. We gotta make the calculus as

395
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,119
Speaker 1: to like how to jump in over there, because you're

396
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: jumping in some ship that's been going on for a

397
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 1: long time so recently. Actually this was under the Biden administration.

398
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:40,160
Speaker 1: They did there like full investigation as to like, okay,

399
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 1: did did the Crown Prince really call this hit? Was

400
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: this really a hit? Or was it not? We all

401
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 1: have our intent is up again, worst kept secret they'd

402
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 1: be popping foods. We can't prove it either way. It's

403
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,119
Speaker 1: set up a situation. We're supposed to be good with

404
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,440
Speaker 1: Turkey and we GOLs to speak, going with Saudi Arabia.

405
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:07,159
Speaker 1: I don't know what we Hey, you just put me

406
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 1: in a predicament because like you gotta make a statement.

407
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: You don't make no statement. You're punk. It's okay you

408
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 1: would like this, It's complicated. You either a telling America

409
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:27,479
Speaker 1: you got we could pop journalists. Be you telling Turkey

410
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 1: my support don't mean nothing, or see Saudi Arabia just

411
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 1: pumped you like I dare you to say something. Wait,

412
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 1: we go with both of y'all, but that's bullshit. You

413
00:24:39,840 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 1: just pop this food? What do we do? Related situation

414
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:18,439
Speaker 1: is the drone strike that hit Kasam Sulimani. Kasum Sulamani

415
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:22,639
Speaker 1: was an o G from Iran that was on his

416
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: way to meet with the Iraqi Prime minister. Right here's

417
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 1: the thing, though. They hit him in Baghdad, right at

418
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: the Baghdad in the International Airport while he was on

419
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 1: his way supposedly to meet with the prime minister in Baghdad.

420
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 1: We popped him, shot up a neighborhood that we supposed

421
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: to be cool with. We just shot the enemy in

422
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: a neutral hood. You just popped his niggad Oh my porch, Brad, Like,

423
00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 1: do we understand the position? We just put a rock in?

424
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:04,639
Speaker 1: Be because like, uh, you just like what am I

425
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,920
Speaker 1: supposed to do? Dude? Like who am I posted to back?

426
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 1: You didn't messed up the whole click situation we was

427
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,479
Speaker 1: already talking about, like trying to figure out making nukes

428
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 1: and all this stuff, and you was getting all America

429
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 1: was getting all weird, Like we had this situation with Obama.

430
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 1: Now you don't like it, and then so you want

431
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 1: to change it. And if you were rocked, you like, look,

432
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,120
Speaker 1: maybe I'll just wait this out or iron, maybe I'll

433
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 1: just wait this out because you're gonna get a new

434
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 1: president soon. I don't know why am I gonna read

435
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 1: and make this whole deal that took us so long

436
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:39,679
Speaker 1: to make just for you to leave later? Like, and

437
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 1: then you got the nerve to drop a drone strike

438
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:46,120
Speaker 1: in my hood. Bro Ya gotta go, man, if you're

439
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,640
Speaker 1: running the city, if you're running back dad, you're like, Yo,

440
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:53,880
Speaker 1: this America gotta go, y'all bugging dude, you wow? Because

441
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: if you had a problem with Cosum, pop him in

442
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: his hood. I don't want nothing to do with this.

443
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 1: You don't thrown me in a mix. It's complicated trying

444
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:06,439
Speaker 1: to figure out like this stuff spill over to actual life.

445
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:12,400
Speaker 1: So listen, foreign policy hard. It's hard to figure out

446
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,680
Speaker 1: how this stuff gets set up. So I say all

447
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 1: that to say this. When you seeing stories about ambassadors

448
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 1: meeting with this people and trying to come up with

449
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 1: sanctions which we're gonna talk about later, trying to figure

450
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,880
Speaker 1: out treaties and trade deals and stuff like that, this

451
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 1: is what they're doing. These are O g s and

452
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 1: oh heads trying to figure out Okay, look, we gotta

453
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 1: rethink how this every photo six years. We gotta rethink

454
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,200
Speaker 1: how this stuff works. We gotta reevaluate how the money

455
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 1: flowing right, And I need to know if ship go down,

456
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:44,040
