Well, you haven't done anything. 37 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 1: Most people ain't did nothing, you know what I'm saying. 38 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 3: So I look at it from you like I mean, 39 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,079 Speaker 3: you know, you came to us with the idea and 40 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 3: it was a no brainer. I feel like, you know, 41 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 3: the voice that you have is needed for the generation 42 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 3: and it fills a gap because in this. 43 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 1: World of. 44 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 3: Everybody's just showing what they have as far as lifestyle 45 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 3: marketing or as toxic or you know, relationship banter or 46 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 3: you know, everybody's just copying. It was like the once 47 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 3: the financial literacy thing got popular, everybody wanted to kind 48 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:47,239 Speaker 3: of follow that mode. So everybody's a copycat, right, And 49 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 3: it's like you you standing and doing something that is 50 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 3: not really replica, Like you can't replicate what you're doing. 51 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 3: And that's why nobody's really copying it at scale because 52 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 3: you can't have three hour conversations about physics and you know, 53 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 3: race relations and aliens like you can't. That's difficult to do. 54 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 3: It's easy to get in front of a mic and 55 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 3: talk about, you know, should your girl pay fifty to 56 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 3: fifty shit like that. 57 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. 58 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 3: Anybody, anybody can have that conversation, you know what I'm saying. 59 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 3: But you know, you you you fill the void that 60 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 3: was needed. So you know, when looking at you know, 61 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 3: growing what we have as far as content, Okay, we 62 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 3: have finance shows, earn Aleisia market Mondays pretty much got 63 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 3: that covered right. We don't need necessarily need to keep adding. 64 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 3: Now it kind of becomes competitive. This is a breath 65 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 3: of fresh air and obviously, like you know, it's it's 66 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 3: taking off the way it has. But then even outside that, 67 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 3: it's just a brotherhood and a relationship that we have 68 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 3: with each other that you know, regardless of a show, 69 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 3: we still have a really. 70 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I was cool with y'all before the show. 71 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 4: It just made sense in the sense of a bridge. 72 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 4: Let's bridge these worlds together. Let's start keeping them so separate, 73 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 4: like because they all merge, you know what I'm saying, 74 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 4: and they all in alignment, the same people that's interested 75 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 4: in intellect and consciousness and metaphysics and all these other 76 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 4: different conversations. They need money, right, We can't go to 77 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 4: war with our money. We got to get our finances straight, right, 78 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 4: Like we gotta Like it's up to our generation to 79 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 4: be the bridge to where like nah, we communicating with 80 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 4: each other. It's not like you third good Marshall over here, 81 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 4: I'm wb the boys is Martin, Luther King and his Malcolm. 82 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 4: It's like, na, we're in the same room having the 83 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 4: same discussion, maybe from different perspectives, but we got the 84 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 4: same war that we're fighting, right, And so it gets 85 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 4: me to my last point, and the last point is 86 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 4: just about conflict resolution. Right, how do you manage conflict resolution? 87 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 4: Because I want somebody that talks to everybody, and I 88 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 4: feel like I'm always, you know, figuring out conflict resolution, right, 89 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 4: because I believe that we have bigger enemies than each other, right, 90 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 4: And I believe that the one thing that we haven't 91 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 4: done yet is unify and it's the hardest thing on 92 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 4: the planet. So whoever accomplish it deserves a Nobil Peace Prize. 93 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 4: But there's always going to be conflict. We're young, it's new, 94 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 4: we're maturing. There's not a foundation or system that we're 95 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 4: coming through to be like, all right, when this happens, 96 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 4: we're going to settle this dispute this way, right, So 97 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 4: we have to figure it out as men to just 98 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 4: come together to be like, all right, let's stop this 99 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 4: before it goes here, and let's continue to build. We 100 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 4: have to check ourselves, right, We have to deal with 101 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 4: other people, our own egos, their egos. There's so much 102 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 4: that goes into that. So for you, being in a 103 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 4: position of leadership, how do you go about your process 104 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 4: of conflict resolution? 105 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 3: You try to work out difference is that there's issues 106 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 3: and at a certain point you realize sometimes that you 107 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 3: can't work out issues. So every person is not your brother. 108 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 3: Every black person is not an ally to you. Right, Jealousy, envy, 109 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 3: these are traits that are colorless. Right, We're just gonna 110 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,799 Speaker 3: be honest, and this is this is either human traits. 111 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 3: So what you realize is that if you if you can't, 112 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 3: if you can't resolve a problem, it's best to remove 113 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 3: yourself from a situation. And that's okay. We all don't 114 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 3: have to be an alliance. We don't need every single 115 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 3: person to work together. We need people to work together. 116 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 3: So you might work together in this silo. I might 117 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 3: work together in this silo. We might work together to 118 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 3: this silo. We might have some level of communication from 119 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 3: other people that are maybe are in communication with all silos. 120 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 3: But there's never gonna be a time when every single 121 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 3: person on earth is working together, every single black person 122 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 3: is working together. It's just not gonna happen, right. But 123 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 3: I think it comes from a maturity standpoint of understanding 124 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 3: that a lot of people have trauma that are beyond you. 125 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 3: There's nothing to do with you, right, So what I 126 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 3: realize is that mental health is real. That's why I 127 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 3: don't argue with people anymore. Once it gets to the 128 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 3: point of art, I'm blocking your number, right because when 129 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 3: I realize that there's no getting through to you, or 130 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 3: that this is this has become a pattern of dyfunction 131 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 3: because it's happened multiple times. You might say something, you apologize, 132 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 3: and you say something you apologize. This is like being 133 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 3: in a relationships, like being a toxic relationship. Right, I'm 134 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 3: removing myself from that situation because I'm not the person 135 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 3: that can help you, right, I'm not your spouse, Like 136 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 3: I'm not with you twenty hours a day. I'm not 137 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 3: sitting with you. I'm not taking you. You probably do 138 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 3: need therapy, you probably do need to have a more 139 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 3: advanced conversation. But me trying to play that mediator is 140 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 3: only going to weigh on my on my psyche, It's 141 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 3: going to bring down my vibe. So I'm removing myself 142 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 3: from that situation, right. So, because it's like, what's the alternative. 143 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 3: We can just keep going back and forth and not 144 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 3: agreeing on things, and eventually it can turn violent, and 145 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 3: that's always an option as well, but that's not productive. 146 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 3: Nobody wins in that situation, whether it's physical violence, whether 147 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 3: it's internet violence, whether it's verbal violence. 148 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: Like, you know, we live in a. 149 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 3: Time where men are more emotional than women, right, And 150 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 3: people they treat social media or they'll treat you know, 151 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 3: things like their diary. Right, And they go on and 152 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 3: they'll say what they'll say a variety of different things, 153 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 3: and it's like, well, okay, did that solve anything. It 154 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,839 Speaker 3: might have made you feel better in that moment, but 155 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 3: once again, that more speaks to your insecurity as a person. Right. 156 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,479 Speaker 3: So it's like, you know, as far as conflict resolution, 157 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 3: the best thing to do is have a conversation and 158 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 3: try to figure out what the differences are. Hopefully that 159 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 3: leads to an issue being solved. Sometimes that does not 160 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 3: lead to an issue being solved because there's still issues 161 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 3: and it still pops up. The next best thing that 162 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 3: you can do is remove yourself from the situation. Right, 163 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 3: there's no harm, no foul. I don't necessarily have to 164 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 3: be the best friends with you. We don't agree on things, right, 165 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 3: I see the world one way. You see the world 166 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 3: another way. How I view you is one way. How 167 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 3: you view me as another way. You think that you 168 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 3: don't agree with something that I'm doing. I don't agree 169 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 3: with something that you're doing. Instead of us battling each other, 170 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 3: because that's going to lead to Now, that's going to 171 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 3: lead to a real problem eventually. Right, the best thing 172 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 3: that we that we can do is walk away from 173 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 3: each other. This is like a relationship, men and women, 174 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 3: the same thing. 175 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: Right. 176 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 3: You try to work it out with your spouse, your fiance, 177 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 3: your girlfriend. You try to work it out before you 178 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 3: go different ways. Sometimes it does not work out. 179 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: That's okay. 180 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 3: It's better to just go your separate ways. 181 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: You'll have a great life. 182 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 3: I'm gonna have a great life as opposed to staying 183 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 3: in a household and then you verbally fight with each 184 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 3: other and then somebody's gonna end up getting hurt. This 185 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 3: is a that's a perfect example of what even with men, 186 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 3: right like you, if you've ever been in a toxic relationship, 187 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 3: you've been in the household, it's gonna something bad is 188 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 3: gonna happen. The best thing that you can do is 189 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 3: remove yourself from the household. The best thing that I 190 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 3: can do if I'm in a relationship with somebody and 191 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 3: we can't see eye to eye, just remove myself from 192 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 3: that relationship. 193 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: That's it. 194 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 3: So you know, that's that's my thoughts on conflict resolution 195 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 3: is that it should never lead to a point where 196 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 3: there's verbal attacks, physical violence, tearing somebody's name like you 197 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 3: know that to me is that that's more of an immature, 198 00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:00,679 Speaker 3: insecure way to way to go about it, especially if 199 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 3: it's not a real, real problem. We got a real problem, 200 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 3: then nine times out of ten, we're not even gonna 201 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 3: speak it anyway. When we see each other, it's going 202 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 3: to be a problem, but it ain't no real problem. 203 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 3: Like most of the time on any level, on the internet, 204 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 3: on the streets, it is never really a real problem. 205 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 3: Most of the time the problems is not real. It's 206 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 3: because you know, I don't like the way you looked 207 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 3: at me, type shit, or you you said something that 208 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 3: I didn't agree with behind my back and somebody told me, 209 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 3: or I came back to me, or you know, try 210 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 3: to talk to my girl at a party I wasn't. 211 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 3: It ain't Is that worth losing your life over? Probably not, 212 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 3: But in the heat of the moment, that's what that's 213 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 3: what it comes down to. Like it ain't very few 214 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 3: times is it real issues, Like somebody stole a million 215 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 3: dollars from you, somebody kidnapped your kid, somebody ran in 216 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 3: your mom's house. These are real issues that happened, but 217 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 3: that's not the majority. Most of the time, when you 218 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 3: really look at this shit as petty you you yo, 219 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 3: you you wearing these sneakers. I had the sneakers first. 220 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 3: I don't like the way you're trying to ruin my vibe. 221 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 3: You're trying to bite my style type shit. 222 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,319 Speaker 1: I under sand. Yeah. 223 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 4: I was looking at the founders of the Constitution. It 224 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 4: was all like their late twenties, early thirties, and I'm like, 225 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 4: how did these men be able to sit down and 226 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 4: decide that this is how we're about to govern and 227 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:36,679 Speaker 4: rule our future. They just sat down, locked in for 228 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 4: like thirty sixty days, and so let's come up with 229 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 4: the rules. 230 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: Let's go set the foundation for the future, you know 231 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 1: what I mean. 232 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,839 Speaker 4: And they argue with each other throughout the process, probably 233 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 4: damn their fault right, bigger back and forth, but they 234 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 4: didn't leave until they had this constitution done. And I'm 235 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 4: believe it's something that we can learn from because what 236 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 4: would have kept you in that room and in that 237 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 4: process is thinking about something that's bigger than yourself. I 238 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 4: don't like this, Nick, but let's get this done, because 239 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 4: if I just stick through it and we get this done, 240 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 4: this gonna benefit my family, all families for the rest 241 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,839 Speaker 4: of the time in America is still being governed by 242 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 4: that same constitution more or less. Right, So I think 243 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 4: about our positions and how if we really want to 244 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 4: take these positions serious, Right, there has to be hot 245 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 4: something higher than ourselves that gods us to be like, 246 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 4: I'm not going to do this because this is more important. 247 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 4: And I believe that's why it's so easy to have conflict, 248 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 4: because we don't have common vision, right, we don't have 249 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 4: common values. The most important thing to us is ourselves. Right, 250 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 4: this is my motive, this is your movement. Nothing is 251 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 4: bigger than that. It's like, damn, there's actually stuff bigger 252 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 4: than that. And if we had that as a common goal, 253 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 4: it's a reason that Malcolm and a Martin would sit down. 254 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,079 Speaker 4: Because the common is our people. The coming is freedom, 255 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 4: the common is like liberation. But it's really thinking about 256 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 4: all the time, what's that commonality? And yes, doing war, 257 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 4: there's many different strategies that you can go about taking. 258 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 4: I just want us, as melanated men to think about 259 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 4: the future that we could have if we learn to 260 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 4: move an alliance and have a cooperation and come to agreement. 261 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 4: Agreement does not mean that, you know, y'all like each other. 262 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 4: People wars their treaties, and there's agreements, and there's packs 263 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 4: that had had nothing to do with y'all like in 264 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 4: each other. It's understanding that something is bigger, right, and 265 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 4: that's usually the future. You know what I'm saying, Like, Yo, 266 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 4: this is gonna be better for our people. I'm gonna 267 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 4: lose so many men on this side, so many soldiers 268 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 4: on this side. We go fight, we go do this. 269 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 4: This is gonna be bad for the culture, It's gonna 270 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 4: be bad for everything. So how about we come down 271 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 4: and sit with a treaty. How about we have a pact. 272 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 4: How about we take some sort of oath of something 273 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 4: that's bigger than ourselves. And I think what we have 274 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 4: to challenge ourselves as first to think, think about that 275 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 4: one thing that's bigger than ourselves, and then that is 276 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 4: the thing that we have a commonality and build a 277 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 4: bridge about, because everything else under that we go war about. 278 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 4: But up here, it's a reason that the blood and 279 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 4: Crypts are come together. It's a reason that the Muslims 280 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 4: and Christians are come together. There's a reason that any 281 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 4: group of people who have a common cause and vision 282 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 4: that's bigger than themselves, it will be bigger than they faith, 283 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 4: they nationality, they business, whatever it is, and be like, yeah, 284 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 4: all right, for the sake of this, I'll find harmony, 285 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 4: an alliance, and we'll move forward based on this agreement. 286 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 4: And therefore we can run and rule and control the 287 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 4: future because we are in such beautiful position. Is that 288 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 4: it's too much at stake right to allow the ripple 289 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 4: effect of what comes from that disharmonious relationship that we 290 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 4: have with each other, because we're not thinking about something bigger, 291 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 4: which is the people. The people are the ones who 292 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 4: suffered the most when the leaders wore right. And there's 293 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 4: so many families, young men that's looking up to us, 294 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 4: young women that's looking up to us, and the ripple 295 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 4: effects of all the families that we're going to be 296 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 4: able to affect. Sometimes I wish I didn't have a 297 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 4: heart to want to saw things. Sometimes I wish I 298 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 4: was just all war, all bull all the time. But 299 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 4: I've seen so many different wars growing up, seen so 300 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 4: many people die. I think I lost ten twelve homies 301 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 4: before I was nineteen years old. So I got people 302 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 4: that didn't die that I haven't even had grief over. 303 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 4: I have people that die while they still living because 304 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 4: they're not who they used to be and they could 305 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 4: have been a great leader and they could have been 306 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 4: a great contribution to the world. And I know people 307 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 4: that took out other people and daughters and all of 308 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,920 Speaker 4: it was pointless. 309 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: All of it. So it's like, what is a higher degree? 310 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 4: And when you think about the people, right, that's always 311 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 4: something bigger than self. 312 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 1: How is this going to affect the people? Right? 313 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 4: And I think that if we come together because of 314 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 4: that constitution, it starts off with we the people. We 315 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 4: have to have a common OAP. We have to have 316 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 4: a preamble, we have to have a constitution right, and 317 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 4: then therefore we have a way to solve all. 318 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: Conflicts for something bigger than ourselves. 319 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 4: But I want to thank you for being here, appreciate 320 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 4: Its a dope, beautiful, powerful conversation.
