And the other thing is stuff that 173 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,319 Speaker 2: you think doesn't directly benefit you actually indirectly benefit you, right, 174 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 2: because doesn't it doesn't it help you that kids can 175 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 2: have resources to read books and places to hang out 176 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 2: in a safe place and all this stuff in your community, Like, 177 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 2: doesn't that help you even if it doesn't direct even 178 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 2: if you don't have kids, even if you don't directly 179 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 2: use the library resources, your help by the fact. 180 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 3: That people in your community can use the Internet. 181 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 2: You know, I ain't way that I'm helped by kids 182 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 2: being educated. I'm the smarter the kids in my community, 183 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 2: the less likely they how to go to prison. 184 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,079 Speaker 3: You know, we actually do have statistics. 185 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 2: That show literally the more money community spent on education, 186 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 2: the less money they have to spend on prisons and stuff. 187 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 2: So I think a lot of times it's indirect correlations. 188 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 2: You know that we think that we don't think about. 189 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 3: Ms. 190 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 2: Barnes says, I love the Library podcast.

They got for a lot of people, 246 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: they have one because it's free. 247 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,680 Speaker 3: Ms. Barn seventy two says I just looked on my keychain. 248 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 2: I have years of cards.

I got 250 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 2: one from Foresight, the one from Wilkes Funny. I also 251 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 2: forgot to ask, so, just like the library used to 252 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:03,319 Speaker 2: doy decimal system. Do libraries still use microfiche? Oh, yeah, 253 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 2: I remember microfiche. 254 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 5: I wonder. 255 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what wouldn't surprise me if they did. 256 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 2: I mean, but at this point you probably could transcribe 257 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 2: that media to like scanning or something and have an 258 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 2: electronic archive or database of it. 259 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: But yeah, you probably can't computerize it. But you know, 260 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 1: things like that. It might be something where people probably 261 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: still use that form for whatever reason. So I could 262 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: see them actually having it, even if they don't have 263 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: none but one machine. I could see them having it. 264 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 2: Charles says, I read so much that I didn't have 265 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 2: a public library car. If I didn't have a public 266 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 2: library car, i'd be broke. I mean, I read so much. 267 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 2: Oh and I'm married to a college library. Well, you 268 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 2: know that'll do with Charles. 269 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,599 Speaker 3: Monique says, I do have a library car, but I 270 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 3: think it's expired. I never go to the library. 271 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 2: I had a chronic case of losing books or feeling 272 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 2: and renew them as kids, and I end up paying 273 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,679 Speaker 2: the full fee, which was only a maximum of three dollars. 274 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 2: I'd hate to know how much that fee is now. 275 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: Check out your library, because now libraries are starting to 276 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: waive those fees, like having certain times of the year 277 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,079 Speaker 1: they wave the fees. But people can return to books 278 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: or they charge like a fraction of tree because it 279 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: was like we won't we actually want our books back 280 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: type of thing. And here in Meckerberough County, the library 281 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,319 Speaker 1: car does not expire and once you guys you got it, 282 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: put a buck. 283 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 3: Yeah. 284 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 2: And then also if you owe money, they just will 285 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 2: arrest you and put you into police custody immediately, so 286 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 2: don't worry about it. Like if you owe money, you 287 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 2: can go on the payment plan. I'll be like, well, 288 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 2: while you're here, we do have. 289 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 3: A warning out for your arrest, and then they just 290 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 3: throw you in the back of the library. You have 291 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 3: to work it off.

She should have 502 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,439 Speaker 2: did more research and no not to even ask that question. 503 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 2: But I'm like, to me, I think that that allowance 504 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 2: should have to go both ways. 505 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 3: You know. It's just weird that it doesn't. 506 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 1: You know, it doesn't, And it's very very Both extremes 507 00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 1: are very frustrating. Most people are in the middle. But 508 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,199 Speaker 1: like everything else online, you have the two extremes that 509 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 1: are the fucking loudest and are the most sometimes goddamn 510 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 1: most ridiculous on both ends because it's one of these things, 511 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 1: we go, no, they're not a monster and they don't 512 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: need to die and burn in hell. Then at the 513 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 1: other side you got to be like, well, they have 514 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: to be accountable at some period of time because this 515 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 1: is actually affecting the community. And you do know, it's 516 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 1: more than just straight black men ass fucking in the 517 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 1: black community. It's other groups of people too that are 518 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 1: being damaged by this group of people. But because everybody's like, 519 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: save the black man, no matter fucking what is, be 520 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:36,160 Speaker 1: damned everybody else. 521 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's and I understand because it's black men. 522 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 2: You do feel like we feel like we're under attack 523 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:47,880 Speaker 2: from a lot of people constantly, you know. And what happens, 524 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 2: I think is we then try to marshal this response 525 00:24:53,560 --> 00:25:00,640 Speaker 2: of well, then anyone trying to hold us account saying 526 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 2: we can do better is also an attack, correct, and 527 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,479 Speaker 2: once we can retreat into that. I feel like, just 528 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 2: like with white people in white privilege and shit like, 529 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 2: once we can retreat into where the victim here in 530 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,479 Speaker 2: any situation, no matter what the outcome, no matter what 531 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,400 Speaker 2: the action is leading up to it, there is no 532 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 2: level of uh, there's no level of like reality or 533 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 2: nuance that can even be approached, you know, And it's 534 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 2: you know, I try to do what I can with 535 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 2: our platform. I try to do what I can with 536 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 2: you know, my problem, myself accountable and and whatnot. 537 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 3: I try to do what I can. 538 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 2: I'm not perfect, and I you know, and I and 539 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,400 Speaker 2: I'm sure that you know, no matter what, I'm still 540 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 2: a dude.

There has to 545 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 2: be something between those two, because it just seemed like 546 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 2: to me, that's not real to be able to victimize 547 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 2: people and then hide behind Okay, but I'm a victim 548 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:09,640 Speaker 2: as well. 549 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 3: Yes you are a victim as well. 550 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 2: Yes you do experience discrimination, and yes they you know 551 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 2: it very much feel like white people would love to 552 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 2: exterminate us. 553 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 3: You know, I absolutely feel that. But I don't know. 554 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 2: This stuff with Kobe really made me think about how 555 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 2: because I could see it coming, and it just once 556 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:32,479 Speaker 2: people started basically sanitizing it to he was just like 557 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 2: set up by this random white girl who just you know, 558 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 2: like call rap for no reason and all this shit. 559 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 2: You know, I've read the the some of the evidentiary 560 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 2: stuff and whatnot, and I just don't know how anyone 561 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 2: can feel like they know for a fact what happened 562 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 2: in that room, you know. And I hate to make 563 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 2: it graphic or anything so trigger one to hear. If 564 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 2: you need to move on, it's cool. But I mean, 565 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 2: we're talking about you know, blood being involved. We're talking 566 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,680 Speaker 2: about both of them agreeing that she said no at 567 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 2: some point. We're talking about him lying and saying they 568 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 2: never had sex, you know, to the police. We're talking 569 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 2: about her. 570 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 3: Saying that. 571 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 2: He held her in the room against her will and 572 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 2: then coming out later and saying she lied about that part. 573 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 3: She only said that so that the police will believe her, 574 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 3: and she apologized for it. 575 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 2: And she also said she lied about why she was 576 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 2: late to work or something like that, Like she said 577 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 2: her call was broke down, but really she just overslept 578 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 2: her something. So like anyone that can read those facts 579 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 2: and tell me I know exactly what happened in that room, 580 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 2: I feel like, like that's crazy, Like no one really 581 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 2: knows for sure. 582 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 3: And I think when you. 583 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:58,640 Speaker 2: Like somebody, you just don't want to think they would 584 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 2: be capable of anything bad. And it's turned the discussion 585 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 2: into like one of it's an attack on black men, 586 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 2: and they start throwing Bill Cosby and and and all 587 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 2: these people into it. And it's so weird because you know, 588 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 2: it's in defense of you know, snoops, emotionality, it's you know, 589 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 2: it's in defense of like but we have to understand 590 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 2: he was upset, you know, to which I'm like, so 591 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 2: because he was upset, he could basically call this black 592 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,919 Speaker 2: woman out of her name in the name of Kobe Bryant, 593 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 2: who we know would never do some shit like like that, 594 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 2: you know, who literally act like ever since Colorado was 595 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 2: acting the opposite of that. You know, a dude that 596 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 2: once called a ref a homophobic slur and then not 597 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 2: only corrected himself and apologized, but then started campaigning against homophobia. 598 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 2: You know, like, I just this don't seem like people 599 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 2: really doing this about Kobe, They're just doing it about themselves. 600 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 3: And the fragile facade. 601 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 2: Of a memory they would like to have of a 602 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 2: man who was perfect and that's just doesn't do anyone 603 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 2: that does everyone a disservice, right, and the. 604 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 1: Kobe that we praised, Now, something had to happen for 605 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 1: a shift and the change, and people that act like 606 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: it would be fucking ridiculous if somebody told the story 607 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 1: and was like, oh, the end and everything was good, 608 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: but they didn't go through the tragedy. There was no heartache, 609 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: no pain or nothing. It was like he was doing 610 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: fine and then he's well, well then something. I mean, 611 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 1: then at the end of the story he was this 612 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 1: great person. Okay, something had to happen, Something had to 613 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 1: be a catapult or catalysts to make that shift, to 614 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 1: make that change. And people want to skip over the 615 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: rape because the rape accusations don't look pretty and it 616 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 1: don't look good, Like like, if I talk about this 617 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, I have to admit that he 618 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: was flawed all of a sudden, I have to admit 619 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 1: that he wasn't perfect all of a sudden, I would 620 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: have to admit these things, and that's fine, that's fine, 621 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 1: but people don't want to admit that. So people act like, well, 622 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: he was just this great, perfect person, but what caused 623 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: him to be the man to be praised today? 624 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 2: And like I said, I'm not even saying he did it. 625 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 2: I'm saying I know enough to say I don't fucking 626 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 2: know anyone that can read all that shit and be like, 627 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 2: I know exactly what happened.

And it's funny 638 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 2: to watch people that have lionized some of these black 639 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 2: male figures is in our. 640 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 3: Culture now disregard everything they're saying. 641 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 2: You know, we're talking about Kareem Abdul Jabbar, We're talking 642 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 2: about Michael Eric Dyson. We're talking about Tannehisee Coats. People 643 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 2: respect Tannahi Coats.

Why aren't this? 650 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 2: But like dog, we our emotions aren't respected all the time. 651 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 2: What we think happens all the time. The fact that 652 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 2: we're not quote unquote canceling Snoop Dogg and no one 653 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 2: was threatening him, nothing's gonna happen to him career wise, 654 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 2: is literally showing a sign of respecting his emotions. The 655 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 2: fact that people immediately went to well, he was just 656 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 2: upset that. That's that's the thing, that's that's the privilege, 657 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 2: that's what's allowed to us, that's not allowed to people 658 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 2: within the race at other times, like there's no respecting 659 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 2: this person's emotions, you know, And it's I'll I'll move on, 660 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 2: but I'll juxtapose it. 661 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 3: With this, if what I see Dwayne Wade doing with his. 662 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 2: Daughter Zaiah, and how much respect people that typically do 663 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 2: not have a lot of respect for trans people, trans 664 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 2: lives or LGBTQ issues, and they and they talk about 665 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,959 Speaker 2: it and either like jokes or they talk about it 666 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 2: and downplay it or whatever. The fact that Dwayne Wade 667 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 2: is boldly standing up being like, I don't know everything either. 668 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,959 Speaker 2: I don't have all the terminology. This is what I'm learning, 669 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 2: But I know I'm a parent who loves their child 670 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 2: and this and I'm putting that out there first and foremost, 671 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,160 Speaker 2: and I'm gonna love, honor and respect my child because 672 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 2: that's what the fuck matters. 673 00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 3: The amount of people I'm watching softened. 674 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 2: Because this man that there was an icon of masculinity 675 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 2: and basketball because he's out front. To me, that's what 676 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 2: I think more brothers are capable of doing. And so 677 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 2: to see, you know, somebody do what Snoop did in 678 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,479 Speaker 2: the same week, to see somebody do what Dwayne Wade 679 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 2: did to me, those are like equal and opposite examples 680 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 2: of like like when we talk about toxic masculinity, that's 681 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 2: that toxic shit. You know, those are equal because he 682 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 2: you can't say Dwayne Wade is affecting the culture and 683 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 2: give him all the credit and all that stuff and 684 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 2: say and how positive it is, and then say Snoop has. 685 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 3: No impact on the culture, you know what I mean? Like, 686 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 3: both of. 687 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 2: These talented, very famous men stood up for something in 688 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 2: different ways and to and we know there's a lot 689 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 2: more people like Snoop than there are like Dwayne Wade. 690 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 3: Let's keep it real. 691 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 2: So I feel like that that's kind of where I'm at, 692 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 2: Where it's like all these different causes and agendas are 693 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 2: just kind of a line in the show, Like, you know, 694 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 2: this huge conflict within blackness and specifically in this case 695 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 2: black straight men. 696 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, And it could be kind of frustrating because 697 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 1: the reality the only reason why your quote unquote respecting 698 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 1: d Wade's daughter is because he's a straight black man, 699 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 1: and do the patriarchy is like, oh, I'm respecting this 700 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:30,879 Speaker 1: woman in conjunction to this man. Not that I would 701 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: respect Dwayne Wade's daughter to buy herself. No, I know, 702 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 1: I don't respect that at all, right, for some of them, 703 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 1: Like I don't. 704 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 3: Respect if it was Gavvy, right, right, I. 705 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,720 Speaker 1: Don't respect that. I only respect and I am only 706 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: tolerant of it because if it was, it was Dwayne Wade, 707 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 1: which means his voice matters and nobody else's voice in 708 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,720 Speaker 1: that house actually doesn't. Even though he gives his wife 709 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: credit for actually pushing him in the right direction, he 710 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 1: gives his wife praise, and a lot of black men do. 711 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,320 Speaker 1: But a lot of times black men don't respect black 712 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 1: men to actually praise their wives and shit like that. 713 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 1: They just want to hear whatever your opinion is, regardless 714 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,880 Speaker 1: of how you were influenced by females around you or 715 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: women around you, that that's irrelevant. It's you got a 716 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 1: pinis I listen to you.

They're called installation. And so I went up 945 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,080 Speaker 1: to the attic and you know, climbed out and went 946 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:08,759 Speaker 1: up to the attic, and the suitcase was literally right 947 00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 1: in front of me, and so I didn't know I 948 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 1: had to walk to the planks to get to it. 949 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,759 Speaker 1: I literally just walked straight in front of me. I 950 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:17,760 Speaker 1: was called five glass. I just caused some some itchy 951 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 1: shit because it itches like hell. I just seen the 952 00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:23,000 Speaker 1: pink five glass, and I didn't know I couldn't walk 953 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,640 Speaker 1: on it. I didn't know there wasn't wasn't enough something 954 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:28,839 Speaker 1: there to hold by weight. So I'm a kid. So 955 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 1: I walked straight across. And when I walked straight across, 956 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 1: I was fine. The next thing I know, I looked 957 00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,160 Speaker 1: down and I seen the floor below me, and I 958 00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 1: I like stood up in the. 959 00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:40,759 Speaker 3: Air for like it felt like forever, but. 960 00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:42,319 Speaker 1: It's probably like a few seconds. And it's like, no, 961 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 1: I went through the hole. And when I went through 962 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:50,160 Speaker 1: the hole, it was fiber glass everywhere. It was ceiling 963 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:54,359 Speaker 1: shit everywhere. Everything was all on the ground and I 964 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:59,400 Speaker 1: just happened to catch the edge of the ceiling where 965 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 1: I didn't and fall completely to the floor. So when 966 00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:06,319 Speaker 1: I went down, I just happened to catch it. So 967 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:09,479 Speaker 1: I didn't like it wasn't like a straight drop down 968 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:13,560 Speaker 1: to the floor and right. So so I went down 969 00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:15,080 Speaker 1: and then I caught the ceiling. So when I caught 970 00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 1: the ceiling, I was actually hanging like like hanging from 971 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 1: the ceiling.

She just can't, you know, And if 1403 01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:12,479 Speaker 2: she did that, it would be disastrous. And I really 1404 01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:16,160 Speaker 2: feel like not enough credit is being attention is being 1405 01:08:16,200 --> 01:08:19,519 Speaker 2: paid to the fact that she's really keeping this country 1406 01:08:19,520 --> 01:08:22,320 Speaker 2: from the brink to a certain extent. She is, and 1407 01:08:23,040 --> 01:08:26,000 Speaker 2: for no credit, obviously, because we don't give women credit 1408 01:08:26,040 --> 01:08:29,080 Speaker 2: for that kind of shit. So I do find I 1409 01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:31,560 Speaker 2: think she's gonna be one of those people like Gloria already. 1410 01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:35,360 Speaker 2: When she retires or someone puts out the documentary on 1411 01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:37,880 Speaker 2: her life and we get or she you know, the 1412 01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:41,000 Speaker 2: memoir or whatever, we get the thinking behind her decisions, 1413 01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:44,439 Speaker 2: people will then transform the narrative into how powerful and 1414 01:08:44,479 --> 01:08:47,000 Speaker 2: great she was. And you know, I didn't agree with 1415 01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:48,720 Speaker 2: her all the time, and I was glad she was. 1416 01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:51,160 Speaker 2: You know, It's like Kobe done, and the haters all 1417 01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:53,040 Speaker 2: of a sudden come out and talk about how much 1418 01:08:53,040 --> 01:08:55,479 Speaker 2: respect they have. That's kind of how I feel people 1419 01:08:55,520 --> 01:08:59,439 Speaker 2: are gonna do Pelosi, That's my guess. And you know, 1420 01:08:59,840 --> 01:09:02,360 Speaker 2: I'm just trying to do it now.
