10
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 1: your news is not sit using the words white supremacy

11
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 1: and capitalism in their coverage of anything, I don't know

12
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: if they are actually able to diagnose the problems. If

13
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: we are not using the right words to identify the problems,

14
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: we will not be able to solve them. Uh. And

15
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 1: we'll get into that, but I am, but we just

16
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: have to get into the news. There's a different energy, uh,

17
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: with what's happening right now that I'm like, I'm constantly

18
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: amazed at how again white supremacy has to sort of

19
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 1: reform itself to be able to maintain its power. And

20
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: you see that in the news coverage, and you see

21
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 1: that with the uh be just un chained growth, the

22
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 1: aggression coming from the police. It's a lot uh. So yes,

00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 1: They were asking me for something. That's what it. But

44
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 1: that's what it's like. That's the thing, and that's the

45
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,160

Speaker 1: feels like a way to you know, handle that. Fine.

49
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: But my god, man, black people have had plenty of

50
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: time to to carve up and analyze what's been going on.

51
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 1: The The murder of David McAtee, that man who owns

52
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 1: the barbecue shop in Louisville particularly is heartbreaking. My grandfather,

53
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 1: who you know, his family moved from the South to Chicago.

54
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: He came from Chicago out to l a looking for

55
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: work because of the war effort, tax paying black man

56
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 1: who served his country, entrepreneur who had to do everything

57
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: on his own. He owned. He my grandfather used to

58
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 1: own a barbecue restaurant Slawson an Overhill in l a

59
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: And and then and the people knew in the neighborhood.

60
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: He was good with people because he he saw him

61
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,839
Speaker 1: making barbecue as a way to feed his community. It wasn't.

62
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: It wasn't for profit. Those those margins are razor. Then

63
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: that's not to go ball out. He did it because

64
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: that's a way that that's an expression of our love

65
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: for each other too, is through us providing for each

66
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,119
Speaker 1: other and cooking for each other. And I know during

67
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: the riots he in two he was worried about his place.

68
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: But things were okay, thank God. But I just think

69
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: about this other man, a grandfather, a black man in

70
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 1: the street who police seemed to know his restaurant too,

71
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 1: is just murdered. You know, I don't know what it

72
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 1: was like because I was like, why are you shooting?

73
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: Because the story I got was somebody was shooting at

74
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,359
Speaker 1: the police, they shot back, and he wasn't. It was

75
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: an innocent bystandard situation. So it wasn't him like he

76
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: wasn't because he wasn't protesting. It was like he was

77
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 1: he wasn't protesting. It was an innocent bystandard situation. And

78
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: I'm always like straight bullets always seem to catch good people.

79
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 1: They never seem to catch the awful dude, Like Hitler

80
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: got hit straight bullet, right, But then, but I guess

81
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 1: if you are the awful dude, the bullets not straight,

82
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: Like I don't understand what happens. Like if you're shooting

83
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: at the cops and you get shot, you're just like,

84
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 1: all right, you earned that the right way. But if

85
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,479
Speaker 1: you're you know, just right, Like, the straight bullet has

86
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 1: always been a weird, a weird kind of thing where

87
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 1: it's just like, oh, you're never gonna catch you. Dude,

88
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 1: who was a it was you know, a horrible person.

89
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 1: You know it was, you know, kicking puppies and hurting

90
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 1: kids and all this other stuff like that, Like straight

91
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: bullets go around him. Yeah, Like, I don't know if

92
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 1: the evil protects you, Like I don't know what the

93
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: philosophy of the straight bullet is, but I can be

94
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: thankful that my white friends who have hit me up

95
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: to ask if I'm all right, it's not the are

96
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: you all right? Well, what can I do? It's not

97
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: those two because some people are to get the It's

98
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: kind of like as a comic when you book something

99
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: like when I booked, like when I got Daily Show,

100
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 1: there was two types of there's there's three types of

101
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: people that hit you up. There's the oh my god, congratulations,

102
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 1: and that's the end of the sentence, and then there's um, oh, congratulations,

103
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: how did you book that? And then there's just the

104
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 1: people that are just like, oh, hey, well, how did

105
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: you book this? Okay, cool? He just that congratulations? Were friends,

106
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: congratulations and how you book this? We're friends, but you're

107
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 1: an ask If it's just how did you book this?

108
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna block you on social media? Like and so

109
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: it's the same thing, it's how are you done? How

110
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: are you? What can I do? Done? What can I do?

111
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 1: First of all, quit asking us, because we've been peacefully protesting.

112
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: But then it's because I'm very much over the well

113
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:03,599
Speaker 1: if they would have done and this, listen, there is

114
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 1: plenty of footage. We've all seen eyes on the prize,

115
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: we all went to high school, we all found out

116
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: what happened. I really to the point where I'm just like,

117
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna need white people to stop talking about Martin

118
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 1: Luther King. Yes, because what you're doing is using Martin

119
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: Luther King to silence us. So you're bringing on the

120
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: he wouldn't want the rights, he would'tre with the rights.

121
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 1: And then it's like, oh, this is what we're gonna do. Fine,

122
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: and then you send them the clip of Martin Luther

123
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: King doing a speech saying that riots are the language

124
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 1: of the unheard. So now you don't have a rebuttal

125
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: because it was well Martin Luthering, and I was like, no, no,

126
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: no, no no, let's not guess but he would have thought.

127
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 1: Let me show you an actual clip of what the

128
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: man said, because I don't know if you saw on

129
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 1: Twitter where people were white explaining to Bernice King about

130
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: what her father would have done, and she was like,

131
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: my father peacefully protested and y'all assassinated him. So you've

132
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 1: already told us what happens when peace fully protests. We

133
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: did sit ins at lunch counters and we were attacked.

134
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 1: We peacefully protested across the bridge. That was a massacre.

135
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: We had a whole town set up and Tulsa, Oklahoma,

136
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: because you wouldn't leave us alone towards you burn the

137
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 1: city down May thirty one to June one. That was

138
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: nine years ago. So all of the times where we

139
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: have been, we've done. We've gone by your rules. Fine,

140
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 1: you don't want us to live near you will make

141
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 1: our own town. All these new girls are successful, burn

142
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: it down, okay. You want us to peacefully protest, we

143
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: did all of this, let's attack them with dogs and

144
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 1: fire hoses. So we are trying to follow the rule

145
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 1: every it's you're given, you're not. You're giving us the

146
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,199
Speaker 1: guidelines of what we have to do for you acknowledge

147
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 1: as human beings and then acknowledge our rights. And it's

148
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: still we didn't do That's the thing, because I think

149
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 1: right there trying to say, well, these are the rules

150
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 1: to getting what you want. But see what we played

151
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 1: by the rules and we're not getting what It's not

152
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: even what we want, it's we're old. It's what we

153
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: what we are, what we what we deserve as human being.

154
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: When the people who make that, the people who make

155
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 1: the rules, will always be able to change the walls

156
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 1: than the game, then we'll play a different one. So

157
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 1: my thing is now, stop asking us. You want to

158
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: know what you can do for me as a black

159
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 1: person to change things, Call your dad, Call your dad,

160
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: call your uncle, call your auntie, called all of those

161
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,679
Speaker 1: people that are the reason that you don't go home

162
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 1: for Thanksgiving, because all of those people are the ones

163
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,680
Speaker 1: saying all lives matter, and you get more careble about

164
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: a target on fire than a man would uh than

165
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:42,440
Speaker 1: a policeman's knee on his neck. Stop asking us we

166
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: didn't start this problem, because how can an abuser look

167
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: at the victim and turn to the victim and say,

168
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 1: tell me how to stop abusing you. How does that

169
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 1: make sense? Black people have been our whole lives. We've

170
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: been taught generation after generation after generation how to navigate

171
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: through white folks to survive. And this is the time

172
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,199
Speaker 1: for white people to not to teach white people how

173
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 1: to navigate through us. We played by the rules and

174
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 1: you keep changing them. So I'm going to then the

175
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: rulemaker need to talk to the rulemaker, because obviously you're

176
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: not listening to us because you can watch all these

177
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 1: videos and not care what did he do wrong? He existed,

178
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 1: there was anything he could done right. So I'm not

179
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: playing this game no more. Because the only reason busses

180
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: got desegregated is because the Montgomery bus system was about

181
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,959
Speaker 1: to go bankrupt. They didn't change their minds about us.

182
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: They didn't make us people. It was eighteen months and

183
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 1: it was running out of money. Some man needed to

184
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,200
Speaker 1: send his child to college. It was either either he

185
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:47,839
Speaker 1: can't go to school or these need girls get to

186
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 1: say whatever they wanted. This bus when about us? All

187
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: these changes haven't been about us. You mess their money.

188
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 1: And my mama taught me as a kid, you want

189
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 1: to change stuff, mess up d white man money and

190
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: stuff with you. It's not about it's not about acknowledging

191
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,360
Speaker 1: the humanity. And that's that's not that's that's that's not

192
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 1: that's not the point. You burnt hot target target. Don't

193
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 1: say in the care why do you care? Right? Right?

194
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 1: Because because white people don't want to believe that things

195
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: could actually be that bad, and so it's easier to

196
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 1: just be like, oh, well, it can't be that. It

197
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 1: can't be that black people this country have experienced white

198
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 1: supremacy and oppression so bad that they would that this

199
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: is what it's led to. That can't be. That's like

200
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 1: this self preservation ship again, because if you have to

201
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 1: really look white supremacy and I that's when you can

202
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 1: begin to be like, oh that maybe we can fix

203
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 1: something about it. But when you don't talk about it,

204
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: it's easy to just move on because you're not to

205
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 1: talk about the problem. And I think it's really you know,

206
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. We'll have a guest on later

207
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 1: to just kind of talk about sort of what's going

208
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 1: on in the ground and ways to constructively move forward.

209
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: But you know, like I said in the episode yesterday,

210
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 1: for all the Allies posting those black squares, keep that

211
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 1: black square energy up. Three weeks from now, three months,

212
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 1: from now, three years, keep the same energy. Like, if

213
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 1: I don't see that energy up, you're the worst kind

214
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: of fucking person there is, because you are just posturing

215
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 1: to try and comfort us. I will feel I'll feel

216
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 1: better when I see action and I and again, I like,

217
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,959
Speaker 1: I get, I get what you're trying to do. But

218
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 1: the thing is in the street, I still see people

219
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,599
Speaker 1: who I could look at is being my own grandfather

220
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 1: get murdered. Nothing. That's my grandfather owned a dry cleaner

221
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: and fought for this country and came back. Our grandfather

222
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: fired World War two overseas and then came back and

223
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: not been in had to have his business in a

224
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 1: specific place. Had it was I'm okay, it's all, it's

225
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: okay to shoot at me and fight for this country.

226
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 1: And then I come back and it's just like why

227
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: did I go? Well? Why did I go? Because when

228
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: the Navy recruiter was starting to talk to my brother,

229
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 1: me and my Momma, shut that all the way down. No,

230
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 1: you're not gonna fight for a country. How to kill you?

231
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,719
Speaker 1: That sounds wild? Jack? How are you feeling what you

232
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 1: got to say? I was just gonna say that the

233
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: g I Bill was a specific uh instrument of of

234
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 1: redlining and white supremacy. The g I Bill after after

235
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 1: World War Two, after black people fought for the country,

236
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 1: they used the policies coming back from the war to

237
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: specifically institute white supremacy. But Jack, I don't mean to

238
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: put you on the spot, but how are you doing

239
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 1: with this right? Like? I know, I know you're not

240
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 1: a shitty white dude because when I worked for use

241
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: that I don't want to hire a bunch of white

242
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 1: guys here. Uh. And and I've seen you, like I know,

243
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 1: I know YouTube be a good, empathetic human being. But

244
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: I'm curious because I don't. I only know it from

245
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: the side of the oppressed person. And this whole weekend,

246
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, like funk, I'm Japanese, I'm black. I have

247
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: like multiple examples to look at how the country just

248
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 1: fucking body slammed me. And I'm curious what it is

249
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 1: on the other side to have to say you know, what, what? What?

250
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 1: What is your experience like? Because the only experience I'm

251
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: seeing from from other people who are not black is

252
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 1: like them getting together, marching, talking to each other or whatever.

253
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 1: And I see the experience on that, and but I'm

254
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 1: curious to know what the emotions are or what that

255
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 1: experience is like because this, you know this, it seems

256
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 1: like a lot of people are being a lot more

257
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: introspective than normal. Yeah, I mean it's a lot of introspection,

258
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 1: a lot of rage, a lot of despair, rage about what?

259
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 1: Despair about? What? What are you mad about? What do

260
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: you say at it? And I'm not trying to put

261
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 1: you on the spot, I actually want to know. I mean,

262
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 1: you know, the white supremacy in the country is something

263
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 1: that I've been aware of for a long time and

264
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: been pointing out for a long time, like two miles

265
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: point on yesterday's episode the dailies, like I Star Show

266
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 1: has been pointing out there's white supremacy, there's examples of it,

267
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 1: but what what are we going to do about it?

268
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 1: And despair, I guess at looking at my own life

269
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: and realizing that I haven't done enough. I haven't done

270
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: enough other than pointing it out basically, so trying to

271
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:30,239
Speaker 1: talk to my family about how we change how we're

272
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 1: living our lives to not support the status quo as

273
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: it exists, and then rage just at the status quo

274
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 1: and the fact that this is this keeps happening. Six

275
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: years ago, the solution was, well, let's retrain the police.

276
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 1: Let's you know, defund the or not defund the police.

277
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 1: Let's give them more funding to retrain the police, to

278
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: get more resources and and body cameras and ship like that,

279
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: and that just it just doesn't matter. It's I guess

280
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 1: it's a feeling of hopelessness and just a feeling that

281
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 1: how I've lived my life up to this point isn't

282
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 1: There needs to be more, a deeper change. So, you know,

283
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 1: I just want to point out that, you know, you

284
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: said you felt despair, and I don't think that's a

285
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: proper emotion, you know, all honesty for white people to

286
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 1: feel about this, because you guys are at the you

287
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 1: guys are at the drive, You are at the wheel

288
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: right now. You're at the wheel. We are not We're

289
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: asking we're asking the driver to drive us somewhere safe,

290
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 1: keeping off the road. And that's why I don't and

291
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 1: I don't mean like shame. You shouldn't feel despaired, but

292
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: I think any white person who feels despaired, you should understand.

293
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: Y'all have every reason to feel charged up right now

294
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 1: because you can. Actually there's a lot more you can

295
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 1: do with your privilege and your place and in the

296
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 1: as the hegemonic class and race in this country, to

297
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 1: really do something. We are out here. We were on empty,

298
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 1: but we still got the fucking pedal to the metal.

299
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 1: And I don't know how there is more gas going

300
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 1: into the engine, but we're doing it. The thing is

301
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: and this is what I was even saying last week.

302
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 1: The way this puzzle is finished is by everybody else

303
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 1: feeling the same way we do. And black death shouldn't

304
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,160
Speaker 1: be obscure to white people. And this is an exercise

305
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 1: for anybody. Picture somebody in your family that died recently.

306
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,160
Speaker 1: I don't care what race you are, that ship hurt,

307
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:41,199
Speaker 1: didn't tragic, unsudden or an old age whatever. It's a

308
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: tragedy to have someone die in your life, a family member.

309
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 1: Now imagine if that family member was killed. How worse

310
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 1: would that feel? Probably worse because that's a lot. You

311
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:55,520
Speaker 1: have a lot of time to to wrap your head

312
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 1: around illness and these other things. But to be tragically murdered,

313
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: that's awful. That's a pain that not many people know,

314
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 1: and not I don't wish many people to know. Now

315
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 1: at on top of that that the people you know

316
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 1: who killed you're a family member, and you're out there saying,

317
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: I have video evidence of this man killing my family member.

318
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 1: And then on top of that, you have a legal

319
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 1: system that looks at that evidence and says, I don't know,

320
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,439
Speaker 1: it looked like he had hypertension and possible in toxicans.

321
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 1: And you tell me how that's a putt and we're

322
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 1: and suddenly we're gonna experience death differently. Fuck no, that

323
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 1: ship is absolutely degrading every time it happens, and it

324
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 1: still happens. That's why we are the ones that feel despaired,

325
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 1: because the facts are we look at evidence of ourselves

326
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: being killed all the time, and not a fucking thing

327
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 1: is happening about Meanwhile, white people have all the votes,

328
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,639
Speaker 1: have all the money, have all the fucking power. You

329
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,679
Speaker 1: can put all you could put all your you know,

330
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,399
Speaker 1: do some fundraising whatever, I don't care what it is,

331
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 1: but y'all have the power that's not. You don't see

332
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,400
Speaker 1: black companies saying, you know, we're gonna do our part

333
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 1: to hire more white people. That's not. That's because that's

334
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:13,199
Speaker 1: not the game. Y'all are running the game, so you

335
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 1: know that's so, don't feel despaired. Feel empowered now because

336
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,440
Speaker 1: y'all got the fucking star in Mario with that white privilege.

337
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,919
Speaker 1: Now fucking run through these blocks and ship. I'll say this,

338
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: I can understand how you feel upset because you feel

339
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: like I'm one person trying to do some things right.

340
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 1: I'm trying to help, I'm trying to do that. I'm

341
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: trying to hire more black people. I'm trying to talk

342
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 1: to my family. I'm trying to do all of these things,

343
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 1: and you, as one person, feel like that you're doing

344
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 1: the best that you can to try to help. But

345
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,880
Speaker 1: you know, you're just one person trying to do something right.

346
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 1: But you're not yelling, you're not screaming, you're not marching,

347
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 1: and nobody's dying around you. So that feeling that you have,

348
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 1: it's because I'm trying to fix it and nothing's changing, right,

349
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,920
Speaker 1: that little feeling I'm trying to fix it and nothing's changing.

350
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 1: I'm doing whatever the little things that I can to

351
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 1: try to fix it right and realizing that I'm not

352
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: doing enough. Now, take that feeling and apply it to

353
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 1: an empire population of people who have been screaming for years,

354
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 1: stop killing us. We're not asked. It's for that feeling

355
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 1: because one thing that white people have been able to do,

356
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: they'll be able to see that this is a problem,

357
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,399
Speaker 1: but they have not been able to feel anything that

358
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 1: we've felt. So that feeling that you have of I'm

359
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: only this one thing that I'm trying to do. I

360
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 1: am trying to fix it, and I don't know what

361
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:00,879
Speaker 1: to do, and I keep trying, and I keep trying,

362
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 1: and I'm begging my head against the wall. Now take

363
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 1: that same feeling and then apply it to the entire

364
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: time we've been here, at least since emancipation, So from

365
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: eighteen six till today, that feeling and disperse it over

366
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 1: every single black person who's ever lived in the United States.

367
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 1: That's that small feeling that you have. Now add on institution, poverty,

368
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 1: institutional racism, beliefs, brutality, a broken fucking justice system, and

369
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: just people who are taught to be afraid of us.

370
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:50,199
Speaker 1: TV teaches them and yet everything we create is every

371
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,360
Speaker 1: bit of a music that plays in America. We made it.

372
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 1: We made it rock and Roll, all of it, Little Richard,

373
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:04,160
Speaker 1: all of them all. We created everything that is quintessential America.

374
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 1: Right when people think about American food, they think about

375
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 1: Southern food that was made by my people. And yet

376
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:17,479
Speaker 1: we're told constantly we don't contribute. So you're telling me

377
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: I'm not needed here. You're telling me I'm not wanted here.

378
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 1: But you steal from us constantly. So you kill us

379
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 1: to prove what you're saying. But then you also take

380
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 1: everything we've ever created from us. And then we have

381
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 1: the audacity to laugh and to yell, and to celebrate

382
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 1: and to be happy. So we continue to live by

383
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 1: the majority population has worked very hard to destroy us.

384
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: Because the main problem, the main problem is, like I said,

385
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 1: the abuser can't look at the victim and ask the

386
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,879
Speaker 1: victim how to tell them? How how can I stop

387
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:07,400
Speaker 1: abusing you? The problem is when you have these conversations,

388
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 1: the same people that can type into the Internet all

389
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: lives matter, or the same people that don't think that

390
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:17,159
Speaker 1: they're racist. Whenever we have this conversation about how to

391
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:23,159
Speaker 1: change things and how to make things different. Right, No

392
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 1: white person will say I am part of the problem.

393
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 1: That's what never happens. Nobody will acknowledge that they are

394
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 1: the problem. We're all talking about these mythical white people

395
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 1: that are the issue. Mm hmm, because every white person

396
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 1: is like, well, I'm not except that one. You gotta

397
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 1: flat out racist because someone will be like, oh, now,

398
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:57,120
Speaker 1: I don't funk, what am I send him to jail?

399
00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 1: I don't care. But most of have been taught you'd

400
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: be racist and you'd be quiet about it. So how

401
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,679
Speaker 1: can you fix the system when the abuser won't acknowledge

402
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 1: that they are abusing? Right, That's the first thing that

403
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 1: has to happen. You have to go I am part

404
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 1: of the problem. You can't be part of the solution.

405
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 1: If you were the one causing the problem, you can

406
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 1: fix it. But how can you be part of the

407
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 1: solution while denying the fact that the issue was initialized

408
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:36,679
Speaker 1: by everybody who looks like you. That's what has to

409
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 1: happen before these black squares and before you keep this

410
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 1: energy up and before you it's if this is going

411
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 1: to get fixed. It is not our job to fix it.

412
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:51,679
Speaker 1: This is y'all because we didn't make this system. We

413
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 1: didn't start this system. We don't work in this system.

414
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,399
Speaker 1: We didn't hop on them boats because we wanted to.

415
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:03,160
Speaker 1: We were kidnapped and since then we've been still been

416
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,200
Speaker 1: treated like we are owned. We always have. That's why

417
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 1: white women call the police on black people, because they

418
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,879
Speaker 1: feel like that we are beholden to them. We have

419
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 1: to answer for where we are if we are in

420
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 1: their space. Yeah, we're in our own building and you're

421
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 1: calling the cops on that bitch. I live here, I

422
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 1: paid the rent here. But since you don't like me

423
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:32,159
Speaker 1: in this space, I can die. You know what happens

424
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 1: when you called him like that Helfer that called the

425
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: cops on that man who was watching the birds. You

426
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 1: saw in the video how she changed her voice. She

427
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 1: knew exactly what to do. I didn't even have to

428
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 1: think about it. And apparently I heard Chicken Nightian, so

429
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 1: she didn't from here, and she know the campaign because

430
00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,159
Speaker 1: it's worldwide, and I think that's you can see it

431
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 1: all over the world too. It's worldwide, because this is

432
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 1: what the thing is. We can't go nowhere. I'm not

433
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: wanted here, I'm not even I'm not connected where I'm

434
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 1: genetically from I'm from here. But people can look me

435
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,120
Speaker 1: dead in my face and go, well, if you don't

436
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: like this country, why don't you go back to Africa?

437
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 1: I sold this dude, if you don't like this country,

438
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,119
Speaker 1: want you to go back to Europe. And he was like,

439
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 1: what do you mean? I was like France, I said, France, England, Ireland, Germany.

440
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 1: All of them places are not the United States of America.

441
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 1: We both got here on boats. So if I'm leaving,

442
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,920
Speaker 1: you leaving, don't play with me, because if we don't

443
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:41,639
Speaker 1: like the country, we can go back to Africa. If

444
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:43,719
Speaker 1: these white folks don't like this country, nobody's telling them

445
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 1: to go back because they have innate ownership of this place.

446
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 1: We built the funk We literally built the fucking White House.

447
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 1: When they signed a declaration of independence, we handed them

448
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 1: to paper in depend I'm sorry, Quill, so don't start

449
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 1: with me. He We do this all day with y'all,

450
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 1: and then they wonder why we don't work. It seems

451
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,320
Speaker 1: like with this particular protest, all the black people finally

452
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: figured out, you know what, they got to say something

453
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 1: to each other because y'all have made it quite clear

454
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 1: you're not listening to us, and I really have hope

455
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,680
Speaker 1: for these police officers that I see kneeling and doing

456
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 1: all this other ship. I hope it's not a photo

457
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 1: of because when I first started seeing and I was like, Okay,

458
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 1: maybe things are changing. But this is a whole group

459
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 1: of people who have been trained to take orders. So

460
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 1: it's a we don't want no problems. Go out there,

461
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 1: and Neil and the other ones like fuck it, cut

462
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: them up. I don't know. I want to believe that

463
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,919
Speaker 1: these men and women are actually motivated and can actually

464
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: see the humanity and as to Nil, but what I know,

465
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 1: if Shonda Rhymes and Scandal taught me anything, is that

466
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 1: a photo op optics are very important. But I hope

467
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 1: it's real. But at the same time, y'all have taught

468
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,359
Speaker 1: me the rules of the game since day one. But

469
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 1: I know what the campaign is. I hope it's real. Right, Sorry, Nah,

470
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,680
Speaker 1: And I think and yeah, we're gonna have Pastor Eddie

471
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 1: Anderson on to talk a little bit more, just about

472
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,680
Speaker 1: what to do with all this energy. All right, let's

473
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:32,680
Speaker 1: take a quick break and when we come back, we'll

474
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 1: have Pastor Eddie Anderson. And we're back, and Miles like

475
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier, you've been talking about not just focusing

476
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 1: on pointing out the problem, but also ways forward in

477
00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 1: a solution. And you were able to a guest, uh,

478
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 1: Pastor Edward Anderson, Eddie Anderson, Pastor Eddie, who is going

479
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 1: to help us talk about that pass re Eddie, thank

480
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: you so much for joining us. Yeah, thank you for

481
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 1: having me on and jack him out. Yeah any time, Uh,

482
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 1: you know, Pastor Eddie, Like you know, I I got

483
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 1: to you through other activists and organizers, and I know

484
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 1: so I'm very thankful to them for putting us in

485
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: contact because I think, you know, we have a responsibility

486
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 1: as a show, like we do preach empathy, uh, equality

487
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 1: and justice on this show, and I think now is

488
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 1: it now is the time where we have to begin

489
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 1: giving people the tools they need to actually begin, uh

490
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 1: making those kinds of changes. So, you know, I wanted

491
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,680
Speaker 1: to bring you on because there was a lot of

492
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 1: misconceptions about what happened in l A over the weekend,

493
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 1: uh in terms of peaceful protests and things like that,

494
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 1: and you've helped organize those things. So you know, we

495
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: just want to give you the time to just beats

496
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 1: everybody and and give us a bit of wisdom right now. Uh,

497
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 1: and and and and learn about what we can all

498
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: do to kind of help push this thing forward and

499
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 1: not let the flame die out. Thanks now? Yeah, yeah,

500
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: I want to address UH protests on Saturday. So I

501
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 1: worked with UM Black Lives Matter as a pastor advocate

502
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 1: at Pastor Church of South Los Angeles with Cardion More

503
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 1: Christian Church UM. And the protest was organized by Bill

504
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 1: Power and Black Lives Matter l A. Me and another pastor,

505
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: pastor Q. We led the protests. The march into the street,

506
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 1: right and so it's five thousand people plus into the street.

507
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 1: We march all the way from Third Street over there

508
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 1: by the Grove, all the way down to lasa Ennegau,

509
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:49,959
Speaker 1: across every intersection. As we were coming down uh the street,

510
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: we saw people coming out of their businesses clapping. We

511
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 1: saw people hawking their horns, people saying black Lives matter.

512
00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: We were clear were marching uh because of black death,

513
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 1: because George Floor's life was killed and he was lynched

514
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 1: in front of our eyes. But we also was marching

515
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: for our black future. UH that to claim that we

516
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: have dignity and respect. So yes, as black people, we

517
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 1: have the right to be angry. You're the right to

518
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 1: be mad, and we have the right to peacefuly protests

519
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 1: in the street, and so we prayed. We chanted, We

520
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 1: chanted prosecute killer cops. We chanted defund the police. Uh,

521
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 1: we chanted George Floyd's name, Brianna Taylor's name. We prayed

522
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:35,400
Speaker 1: in the street. We said the asadom after we said

523
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,720
Speaker 1: the asada, which is, you know, we have to lose.

524
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: But our chains um was let's protect one another. We

525
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 1: started walking back down the street, me and the other

526
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,800
Speaker 1: past people let the protests, and what we saw unrabbled

527
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 1: before our eyes was police brutality. We saw, uh, cops

528
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 1: coming down the streets and armored trucks with riot gear

529
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 1: and guns ready to go, batons, a standoff being set up.

530
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 1: We saw a cop car on fire at third in

531
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 1: fair Effax. But when we just crossed as Sleep bout

532
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 1: thirty and forty five minutes before, there was no cop

533
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 1: car there, right, And so uh, we're saying, you know,

534
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 1: when you come to people with right gear, baton's and

535
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 1: rubber bullets, you will insight right right, you will change

536
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: the energy. What do you expect? Yeah, yeah, you know,

537
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 1: way like police are dressed like that because they almost

538
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 1: know their own karma. Yeah, like that they are almost like, man,

539
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: if they're as mad as as mad as I would

540
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 1: be for treating these people, I would be I would

541
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 1: pull up in tanks too. Yeah, I mean I think

542
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 1: police are are they know that the system of policing

543
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 1: has been wretched, that it stems from slave catching. Right,

544
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 1: is that it's been oppressing black people for since for centuries,

545
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: in decades, right, like this is it when you saw

546
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,840
Speaker 1: what you saw in the streets was in response to

547
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 1: George Floyd, but it's also in response in l A

548
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 1: to black people being stopped five times that's more than

549
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 1: a white counterparts. It's also in response to enhancement and

550
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 1: gang databases. It's response to years and years of oppression. Uh,

551
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 1: and seeing the disparities in our country and our economy,

552
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 1: especially in l A. And then you're given the police

553
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 1: a raise. Right of the l A budget is going

554
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: towards police at three point one billion dollars. Excuse me,

555
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 1: We're in the middle of a global pandemic. If we

556
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 1: couldn't figure out how to get health workers who are

557
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 1: risking their lives check the gear they needed, how to

558
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 1: make sure people get tested in time, right, So it's like,

559
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 1: but they got many flash bangs and rubber bullets, right,

560
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 1: you know in drums. You know, I think a lot

561
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,800
Speaker 1: of the work that you do is so important and

562
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 1: and the thing about a moment like this, I'm sure

563
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 1: is you see a lot of energy, uh for people

564
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 1: to act. And I think a lot of people all

565
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: the same kind of will to begin to do something.

566
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:06,920
Speaker 1: And I think a lot of people as the takes

567
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:09,359
Speaker 1: I see on social media and like watching other people

568
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 1: like you know what, well, what's what's the next part?

569
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:13,839
Speaker 1: Like what are we gonna do next? And things like that,

570
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 1: And I think not that there has to be like

571
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 1: this is the one thing, but you know, can can

572
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 1: you speak a bit to helping people, like like, what's

573
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,760
Speaker 1: the vision of the future for people to begin to

574
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 1: buy into so they know the kinds of things that

575
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:31,239
Speaker 1: their support is going to be needed. That's a good question. Uh.

576
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: The next step is to your anger for your pain

577
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 1: and organize and mobilize. Right. Uh, we're in the middle

578
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:42,319
Speaker 1: of an election year. So you saw yesterday, Uh there

579
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: was an action at the Mayor's house, right, shutting it

580
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:47,840
Speaker 1: down to the Maor's house for the people's budget l A.

581
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:52,759
Speaker 1: And that's simply we we survey over ten thousand Angelino

582
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,440
Speaker 1: an accident. What's your priority for a budget? Is it

583
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 1: to give the police a raise? Or do you want

584
00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: more healthcare? Better schools? Do you want to embed us

585
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,839
Speaker 1: and our neighborhoods, make sure that black communities have an

586
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 1: economy of care black and brown communities. Right, So that's

587
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:08,880
Speaker 1: the next was budget l A. That budget fight we

588
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: saw yesterday. The budget went into effect, but then you

589
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:16,239
Speaker 1: saw right away the city council president tweet and say,

590
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,080
Speaker 1: like the bludge is not done yet. You know, we

591
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,320
Speaker 1: still gotta gott do this work. And it's like to

592
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,680
Speaker 1: t you plugging in there today at three pm, we'll

593
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,319

00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:41,239
Speaker 1: only two of them have even had charges and none

598
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 1: of them have really been prosecuted. Uh, there's an election

599
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 1: in November where we can get rid of Jackie Lacey

600
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 1: once and for all. It gets doing in the office.

601
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:53,200

602
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 1: prosecute people who are killing our people. Right, So that's

603
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 1: another thing, Right, how do we plug in and make

00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: do you think what what do you think are good

610
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 1: places for it? Because I've seen that pointed out as

611
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:23,480
Speaker 1: a as a solution to or anyone as a solution

612
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,680
Speaker 1: is like to vote on your local elections, Like do

613
00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 1: you do you guys have any resources that people can

614
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: use to kind of research that local stuff. I just like,

615
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:42,640
Speaker 1: are we just like going with the local paper to like, yeah,

616
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 1: the misinformation because like you said at the top, like

617
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 1: they're everything, the local news, the local media, everything is

618
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:55,840
Speaker 1: so shot through with misinformation and you know, capitalism and

619
00:36:55,880 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 1: white supremacy that it's it feels hard right now. The

620
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:06,400
Speaker 1: best way to get access to the information that Pastor

621
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 1: Eddie was talking about is on social media, which like

622
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,680
Speaker 1: typically people are like, don't trust social media, like social media,

623
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,239
Speaker 1: but like that's the only place that you're finding out

624
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 1: the fucking truth right now. Like so in terms of

625
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 1: like what with the solution? How do we research the

626
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 1: solution when everything is so corrupt? Yeah, I think there's

627
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,400
Speaker 1: uh coalitions that have been doing this work in l

628
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 1: A that you can ampify. So Justice l A have

629
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:37,279
Speaker 1: been doing the work around should we close prisons? Uh,

630
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:40,480
Speaker 1: the account that the d A Coalition for Justice and

631
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:44,360
Speaker 1: Accountability to highlighting the d A race. Uh, the Appeal

632
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 1: is doing good work on this as well. And then

633
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:49,840
Speaker 1: of course follow b l M l A, follow the

634
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 1: Movement for Black Lives, follow re form l A Jails,

635
00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:56,280
Speaker 1: which is highlighting how do we do this work? Students

636
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 1: deserves as another organization l A voice as well. But

637
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 1: also I would encourage people to just be as active

638
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: as possible. If you can't find it, search for it,

639
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 1: because if you're if you're it's it'll be too easy

640
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: to say, well, I didn't know who to vote for

641
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:15,440
Speaker 1: because I couldn't find the thing. Well, start understanding your

642
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 1: own community, Start knowing who the people are that maintaining

643
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,839
Speaker 1: these kinds of systems of oppression and so, because when

644
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: you can identify them and their transgressions, it's much easier

645
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,759
Speaker 1: to say, oh, that's somebody who I shouldn't vote for,

646
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 1: even though they might have a D next to their

647
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,120
Speaker 1: name when I go to the poll, that's not somebody

648
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 1: I should vote for. Because I think the next step

649
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: also too is finding you know, like you said, there's

650
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:41,560
Speaker 1: an election coming up, so now is also a very

651
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 1: important time to begin demanding more from your leaders as well,

652
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,040
Speaker 1: and say, well, where do you stand on black lives

653
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 1: and and and can you can will you, out loud

654
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 1: in a speech say that systemic white supremacy is an issue?

655
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:54,960
Speaker 1: And will you say that out loud to your constituents

656
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 1: because if you don't, I don't know if I can

657
00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:58,839
Speaker 1: trust you to solve that problem because you can't even

658
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,919
Speaker 1: identify it, right. And I think those are the those

659
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 1: are the things that we also need to begin to

660
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,520
Speaker 1: demand more from our leaders as well. And that can

661
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,160
Speaker 1: be as proactive as calling your representative now and say, hey,

662
00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 1: I'm gonna vote for you, but just so you know,

663
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 1: I'm I'm I I want an agenda from you as

664
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:18,920
Speaker 1: a leader that addresses systemic injustice and racial injustice and

665
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 1: all of these things. As as a voter, that's one

666
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:25,360
Speaker 1: thing too, Uh, I'll think you straight on, because you know,

667
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,759
Speaker 1: the city council president said we're gonna start debate again

668
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,879
Speaker 1: on sixth eight for the city budget. You can call

669
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 1: your lected official, the ones who have been silent during

670
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 1: the protests, and say, hey, here's the way you can help.

671
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,240
Speaker 1: You can reinvest the money that you're going to spend

672
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,880
Speaker 1: on things that we need on health, on healthcare, you

673
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,279
Speaker 1: reinvested on on schools. Right we're in the middle of

674
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:51,439
Speaker 1: a global pandemic. You can shift those resources right now.

675
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,759
Speaker 1: It doesn't have to be this way right past. Another

676
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,279
Speaker 1: thing I want to talk about is your work with

677
00:39:56,320 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 1: the Poor People's Campaign, because that that is is really

678
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 1: a continuation of work that was starting decades ago, right um.

679
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 1: And you know, I think it's important for people to

680
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:11,399
Speaker 1: understand like what the Poor People's Campaign is as well,

681
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 1: because I think we're you know a lot of a

682
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,880
Speaker 1: lot of these injustices that we're gonna overcome is because

683
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: we're we have solidarity. Like we're saying before we had

684
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 1: you on, it's not just enough for black people to

685
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,359
Speaker 1: let their pain be known and these injustices known. It's

686
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:28,680
Speaker 1: also we also need everybody else's help to steer this

687
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 1: ship in the right way. So I would love to

688
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 1: also give you a second to tell people about the

689
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:36,359
Speaker 1: Poor People's Campaign. The Purpose campaign is continuing where Dr

690
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:39,440
Speaker 1: Hartis King and others started in the night when he

691
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 1: was assassinated. Uh. Nationally is led by my good friend

692
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:46,680
Speaker 1: or Reverend William Jay Barber and Lithio Harris. Uh. It's

693
00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:49,839
Speaker 1: basically just saying that there are still a hundred forty

694
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:54,879
Speaker 1: five million for people in America. In California, that's one

695
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 1: and four children are poor, that's one and four women

696
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:02,880
Speaker 1: are poor. It shows up as black women in l

697
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 1: A being around seventy of their money on rent. It

698
00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 1: shows up in an incarcerated uh system, systematic incarceration in

699
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:15,840
Speaker 1: our systems. And so we're saying we need moral clarity,

700
00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:20,240
Speaker 1: We needed horror revival, UH, and we need to highlight that, uh,

701
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 1: poverty does not have to be a problem in this nation,

702
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 1: especially in California, where we have the fifth largest economy

703
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 1: in the world. Uh. And yet we have the second

704
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 1: highest homeless rate in the entire nation. Right. L A

705
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:38,239
Speaker 1: County has a high homeless rate in any city in

706
00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:43,239
Speaker 1: the country. Right. Uh. And we aren't talking about black

707
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:46,800
Speaker 1: lives matter. Yeah, black lives matter because of the people

708
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,959
Speaker 1: who are on the streets are black, but yet we're

709
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: less than non percent the population. Ar right, So let's

710
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:57,000
Speaker 1: so let's talk about what we're really doing to solve

711
00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:00,279
Speaker 1: the problem. Problems campaign highlighting that across the country. They're

712
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:04,359
Speaker 1: getting ready. We're getting ready for a moral digital march

713
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:07,360

736
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 1: I disappeared. The l A curfew notification came through and

737
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:35,239
Speaker 1: knocked me out of zoom uh for the last couple

738
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:40,439
Speaker 1: of minutes of Pastor Eddie's conversation. Apologies, did you see

739
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 1: the footage of the people in Philadelphia, the like roving

740
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:51,840
Speaker 1: gangs of white dudes with fat walking around after after curfew?

741
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:56,879
Speaker 1: Like we we talked on yesterday's episode about the kind

742
00:43:56,880 --> 00:44:00,839
Speaker 1: of racist history of the curfews in America, but that

743
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:08,440
Speaker 1: was talking about the racist history of Pennsylvania or America. WHOA,

744
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 1: It's like we have to keep zooming out, you know,

745
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,680
Speaker 1: like we get so we get we have so many

746
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 1: examples that are the microscopic version that we always try

747
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 1: and solve it at the microscopic level when we really

748
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:24,240
Speaker 1: need to have the ten thousand foot altitude discussion about

749
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:26,640
Speaker 1: all of this, because if if we're not addressing all

750
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:30,880
Speaker 1: that ship underneath, it's gonna keep happening. Yeah, because when

751
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 1: y'all asked me what myth I wanted to talk about, um,

752
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:40,920
Speaker 1: the myth that I had was that America likes to

753
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,000
Speaker 1: America exactly like that. The South is the only place

754
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:52,480
Speaker 1: that's racist. That's the biggest smith, the biggest smith. Come

755
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 1: to l A. Come to l A here, come on down.

756
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:00,160
Speaker 1: I lived in l A before I moved to New York. Gus,

757
00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 1: what come to New York. Guess what go to Chicago?

758
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:07,319
Speaker 1: Guess what go to Fort Wade, Indiana, or Arkansas or

759
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 1: the entire United States of America. So yeah, I think

760
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,359
Speaker 1: that's the moment. And I talked about it all the

761
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:16,040
Speaker 1: time because these Yankees really feel like that they let

762
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 1: that there. Well what do you Well, I'm not And

763
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:22,560
Speaker 1: like that's what I said in my half hour. I

764
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 1: know y'all are more racist. Y'all split up white people,

765
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:35,880
Speaker 1: Italian neighborhoods, Irish neighborhoods. My neighbor rich people was a

766
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:40,080
Speaker 1: Greek neighborhood Boston. And I also said people all the time.

767
00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:44,319
Speaker 1: People have always heard this, and it's apparently there's something

768
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:46,960
Speaker 1: they don't say. I've heard, you know, more than once

769
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:49,840
Speaker 1: in my life, and only from white people. For the

770
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:52,640
Speaker 1: most part. It's you get your bachelors, say, you get

771
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:54,799
Speaker 1: your bachelors and racism in the South, you get your

772
00:45:54,800 --> 00:46:00,279
Speaker 1: masters in Boston. So that's a whole different Like y'all

773
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 1: are y'all are splitting up white people? Who has the

774
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:11,759
Speaker 1: time to get that specific with a racist? And I

775
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,000
Speaker 1: was like, oh, y'all can't put y'all cannot put this

776
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,680
Speaker 1: on one place in this country. It is wild to me.

777
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,600
Speaker 1: There were sundowntowns all over the country. There was red

778
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 1: lining all over the country. Ore Agon was created as

779
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:27,680
Speaker 1: a white haven state. Black people were not even too

780
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:33,120
Speaker 1: allowed to live there because the Civil War sympathizer created

781
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:38,040
Speaker 1: the state. Uh Confederate sympathizer created the state. So I

782
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:40,359
Speaker 1: think that's the big one of the big myths in

783
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 1: America is that we like to act like that racism

784
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 1: only occurs in thirteen states that are kissed by the sun. No,

785
00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:57,439
Speaker 1: I'm not, I can't. I really, I'm over this game.

786
00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:01,319
Speaker 1: I'm over this game because there's a map of all

787
00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:04,960
Speaker 1: of the shootings of an armed black people. If the

788
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,720
Speaker 1: South was so much more racist, there should be way

789
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 1: more shootings in the South. Yeah, and there isn't. It's

790
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:16,279
Speaker 1: all over the country because the police are all over

791
00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:19,040
Speaker 1: the country, because black people are all over the country.

792
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 1: So I and that's another thing is white people not

793
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:25,479
Speaker 1: being accountable for what they're doing because you can point

794
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:29,280
Speaker 1: the finger at them because you already see Southern ass backlards,

795
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:31,360
Speaker 1: you know, backwards and two lists and shoot lists and

796
00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:34,279
Speaker 1: all of this. Because someone's like, well that's just what

797
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:36,840
Speaker 1: I think about, you know, the South, and like you know, Georgia,

798
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:42,920
Speaker 1: and I'm like, we had an Olympics. Stop it if

799
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 1: we was that backwards, they when it gave us a

800
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 1: damn Olympics, calm the hell down, Okay, yeah, yeah, And

801
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,400
Speaker 1: I think it's back to the thing of like white

802
00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 1: supremacy will always find ways of preserving itself by changing

803
00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:00,440
Speaker 1: the discussion or not having a discus. USh and on

804
00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,719
Speaker 1: white supremacy, because objectively white supremacy is bad, and there's

805
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 1: not a person who can stand on that foot without

806
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:09,239
Speaker 1: looking like an absolute you know, fill in you know,

807
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:13,919
Speaker 1: all right, thinker here, But it's on its face there's

808
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,360
Speaker 1: not a person to be like, uh, you know, no,

809
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,440
Speaker 1: white supremacy is good, and if you are, that's a

810
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:21,839
Speaker 1: very specific person. But if you're not constantly talking about it,

811
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:23,759
Speaker 1: you won't be able to begin to see all the

812
00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:26,919
Speaker 1: ways it's manifesting in our society. And I think that's

813
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:29,200
Speaker 1: why we get so caught up. It's going to be

814
00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:31,719
Speaker 1: a lot easier for people to say we'll change the

815
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,520
Speaker 1: police and change how we police thinks and just solve

816
00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,839
Speaker 1: that problem, rather than going further out and say, well,

817
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,759
Speaker 1: no, no no, hold on, hold on, uh, you're not even

818
00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:45,600
Speaker 1: The police is already uh, a manifestation of white slavery

819
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:48,960
Speaker 1: from its roots in slavery. So we can't even we

820
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,960
Speaker 1: can't even have a discussion about that because we're not

821
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:54,320
Speaker 1: going far back enough and we're not looking at the

822
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:57,879
Speaker 1: totality of it. We've all seen enough episodes of law

823
00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:01,400
Speaker 1: in order to know that the police are the first step.

824
00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:06,640
Speaker 1: M h, that's your first step. The police are the

825
00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:10,000
Speaker 1: first ones I deal with. The next one that I

826
00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 1: deal with is the court system. Now, the policing is

827
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,759
Speaker 1: inherently biased, and inherently racist, and inherently a tool of

828
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 1: white supremacy. The court system is inherently biased, inherently racist,

829
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 1: and a tool of white supremacy. Because the main example

830
00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:36,360
Speaker 1: you can give is the difference in sentencing for powdered

831
00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 1: cocaine and crack cocaine. They're both cocaine, but since this

832
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:50,439
Speaker 1: one got cooked, you go to jail longer. But who

833
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:55,839
Speaker 1: did it? Mhm. And so when you talk about because

834
00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:58,799
Speaker 1: this is because one day, you know, I was, I

835
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:02,800
Speaker 1: was talking to some people about, you know, people about

836
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 1: this opioid crisis. And I and me and another black

837
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:14,480
Speaker 1: person said, my um, sympathy for this is going to

838
00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:19,200
Speaker 1: be a little lacking. And they said why. I said,

839
00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:24,799
Speaker 1: because this opioid epidemic has happened, and now we're all required,

840
00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:29,640
Speaker 1: we're all being asked to have sympathy for the attics.

841
00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 1: We're supposed to have sympathy for these people. This is

842
00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:37,279
Speaker 1: a mental health problem. This is an issue. When the

843
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:41,640
Speaker 1: crack epidemic happened, you sent people to jail. When the

844
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:48,239
Speaker 1: mess epidemic happened, and that was white people, you sent

845
00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:52,960
Speaker 1: them to jail. You sent black people to jail, You

846
00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:56,920
Speaker 1: sent poor white people to jail. But because the people

847
00:50:56,960 --> 00:51:00,520
Speaker 1: that can afford these opioids and middle middle class and hired.

848
00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:05,280
Speaker 1: Now all of a sudden we have a health crisis.

849
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:10,560
Speaker 1: We've already had to drug epidemics before that. What is

850
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:15,319
Speaker 1: the difference now, it's what the people look like? What

851
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:20,040
Speaker 1: do the addicts look like? Because we forget another tool

852
00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:28,120
Speaker 1: of white supremacy is institutional poverty. Because the greatest thing

853
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:33,760
Speaker 1: that the Republican Party ever did was convinced poor white

854
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:38,759
Speaker 1: people that they had their best interests in mind. And

855
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:42,799
Speaker 1: those same people who don't realize because I know the

856
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:47,279
Speaker 1: American dreamed on a ply to me, you're the Constitution,

857
00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:50,279
Speaker 1: when when Africans were being enslaved. So I know this

858
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:53,560
Speaker 1: from day one. This wasn't for me. But if you're

859
00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:57,200
Speaker 1: white in this country, this document was written for you.

860
00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:59,640
Speaker 1: But when you think about it, when it was written,

861
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:05,040
Speaker 1: when the Constitution was written, only white men who owned

862
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:11,439
Speaker 1: land could vote. So if you are currently a poor

863
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:15,520
Speaker 1: white person who who doesn't own anything, they weren't talking

864
00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:21,600
Speaker 1: about you, and they've never been talking about you, and

865
00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:24,480
Speaker 1: yet they've convinced you that the reason that your life

866
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:26,920
Speaker 1: is the way that it is not because they have

867
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:30,920
Speaker 1: defunded your neighborhoods kept your kids uneducated, kept you in

868
00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:32,440
Speaker 1: a place where you're always going to have to be

869
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:37,320
Speaker 1: a servant class to them. They've told you the reason

870
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,880
Speaker 1: you live like this because bootstrapping is a myth. We

871
00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 1: know that, but you've sold them on bootstrapping and told

872
00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:46,839
Speaker 1: them you live like this because these black people are

873
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 1: doing good. You live like this because these immigrants are

874
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:55,880
Speaker 1: coming and taking your jobs. It's not us. We didn't

875
00:52:55,920 --> 00:53:02,840
Speaker 1: do anything. We care about family values. We care about

876
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:07,120
Speaker 1: families in the American dream. They're not talking about the

877
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:09,279
Speaker 1: fact that they made jab pull all those cold out

878
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:12,880
Speaker 1: of mountain. Now there's no jobs. We send all the

879
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:17,759
Speaker 1: factories overseas. There's no jobs. Yeah, look whose pockets are fatter.

880
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:20,799
Speaker 1: It's not like all the all the stats that you

881
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:22,840
Speaker 1: know you look at for black people in this country.

882
00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:26,840
Speaker 1: It's not that you go, Black America is thriving. White

883
00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:29,400
Speaker 1: people be on alert because I don't know where this

884
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:31,800
Speaker 1: money is going. I think it's going to Black America.

885
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:34,480
Speaker 1: Are you fucking look at the state of our lives

886
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,520
Speaker 1: and tell me that we're that we're taking something from you? No,

887
00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:40,960
Speaker 1: look at the people look above you. Now, look at

888
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:44,760
Speaker 1: the billionaires that padded their pockets during the pandemic. Somehow,

889
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:48,400
Speaker 1: how did that happen? But tender rappers got money, so

890
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 1: the black people money exactly because remember where a mono lift. I,

891
00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:59,800
Speaker 1: me and you in this conversation to a lot of

892
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:05,720
Speaker 1: people are listening, Me and Miles now represent every single

893
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:14,719
Speaker 1: black person in this country. Jack represents Jack. Jack gets

894
00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:20,200
Speaker 1: to be one person. We are millions of people on

895
00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:25,839
Speaker 1: this conversation. That's difference. I didner interview and the girl

896
00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:27,880
Speaker 1: tried to insinuate to me that because I am a

897
00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:31,240
Speaker 1: quote unquote black celebrity, and she goes, well, you're a celebrity.

898
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:33,399
Speaker 1: I said, no, girl, I'm on TV. That's that's two

899
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:35,520
Speaker 1: different things. It's like, well, what do you mean? I said,

900
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:37,600
Speaker 1: When I walk into a restaurant, they don't get excited.

901
00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:42,280
Speaker 1: They asked me how many? So when they start getting excited,

902
00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:47,359
Speaker 1: that's when I'm gonna yeah. Instead of saying, ma'am, there's

903
00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:49,279
Speaker 1: a fifteen minute wait. No, I want you to shout

904
00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:51,440
Speaker 1: the whole restaurant down. Your girl is in the building,

905
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:58,879
Speaker 1: I can't who's that. I'm here for your finest tack water,

00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:11,319
Speaker 1: was Basically she was saying, because I am a black

Speaker 1: person who is well known, I will I am dealing

910
00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:19,120
Speaker 1: with less racism. And I said, I you don't understand

911
00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:22,640
Speaker 1: how this And I heard that ship too growing up

912
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:26,600
Speaker 1: because I grew up predominantly around white people, and hey,

913
00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:29,719
Speaker 1: they're not learning that I'm actually diminishing my own blackness

914
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:32,080
Speaker 1: to be able to operate in their white space as

915
00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:34,600
Speaker 1: a child, like I'm already like. All it took was

916
00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:36,680
Speaker 1: a few comments from a teacher to correct the way

917
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:40,719
Speaker 1: I spoke for me to say, oh, okay, and my

918
00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:45,319
Speaker 1: mama did that. My mom and my grandmother like no, no, no, no,

919
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:47,880
Speaker 1: no no no. You were going you you have to

920
00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:49,520
Speaker 1: speak a certain way if you were going to get

921
00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:51,960
Speaker 1: a good job. Don't get me wrong. I was also

922
00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 1: told that too. That was all these are. This is

923
00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:56,719
Speaker 1: all part of the so you want to make it

924
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:59,760
Speaker 1: in America starter, kid, First learn how to make yourself

925
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:03,560
Speaker 1: some all are less imposing, less threatening, speak as fla

926
00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:07,280
Speaker 1: fucking smiley and wide eyed as possible, so people aren't

927
00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:09,560
Speaker 1: afraid of you. But then there's this other thing too,

928
00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:11,840
Speaker 1: where people say, well, you're not black black, you know,

929
00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:15,920
Speaker 1: like you're half black or whatever. Let me tell you something,

930
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:18,520
Speaker 1: I still see my family being killed when I see

931
00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:22,360
Speaker 1: black people mistreated. I still see the all this injustice

932
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:24,799
Speaker 1: happening as being a part of who I am. It's

933
00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:28,960
Speaker 1: that's just based on your media informed definition of what

934
00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:32,400
Speaker 1: a black person. So that's you wanting to be okay

935
00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:36,520
Speaker 1: with knowing me. So I'm not black black first of all,

936
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 1: and that goes you know, I've talked to various black

937
00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:42,200
Speaker 1: actors and we've all talked about being in auditions and somebody.

938
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:45,759
Speaker 1: We've all seen Hollywood show it's the same thing. But

939
00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:50,120
Speaker 1: according to America, there was very much this one drop

940
00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:52,680
Speaker 1: role mentality. In some places it was an actual law

941
00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:57,840
Speaker 1: and when drop roll show sweetheart, you're great great great

942
00:56:57,880 --> 00:57:01,480
Speaker 1: grandmother could have been black and you're black. That's what

943
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:05,879
Speaker 1: the whole movie show Boat is about. So for me,

944
00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:09,800
Speaker 1: it's there's no way that I can look at somebody

945
00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:13,359
Speaker 1: and you know, sometimes it is a thing I think

946
00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:19,480
Speaker 1: one people treat what the mixture is differently. It's well,

947
00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:24,840
Speaker 1: you're black and what because I'm also going to figure

948
00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:28,000
Speaker 1: out how to take you in as black people what

949
00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:32,320
Speaker 1: they mix with? Let miss what Puerto Rican. I just

950
00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:36,040
Speaker 1: just needed to speak Spanish, he's fine, or it's what

951
00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:40,560
Speaker 1: black and white? What a mama stake black and Asian?

952
00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:43,880
Speaker 1: All the kids just pretty alright, fine, like we have

953
00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:47,400
Speaker 1: this like okay, give me what the other one is

954
00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:51,880
Speaker 1: so I can figure out how to act. But it's

955
00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:57,320
Speaker 1: I'm not, you know, I'm mostly according to the paperwork,

956
00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 1: and I'm going to because it's like I have a

957
00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:05,040
Speaker 1: friend who's half Middle Eastern, half white, but she her

958
00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:08,040
Speaker 1: physical features present more as white, so she is treated

959
00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:11,200
Speaker 1: like a white woman, and she tells people all the

960
00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:14,560
Speaker 1: time knowing, you know, my father's Middle Eastern, my father

961
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:18,520
Speaker 1: has Middle East, and everyone's like, yeah, that's cute. So

962
00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:24,200
Speaker 1: you'd only be taken in that's how you look. And

963
00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:25,600
Speaker 1: I've lived in a lot, you know, and I've lived

964
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,240
Speaker 1: in predominantly white places. I've lived predominantly black places I've

965
00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:30,240
Speaker 1: lived in. But most of my life I lived in

966
00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:34,400
Speaker 1: very mixed. I lived in very mixed, like neighborhood has mixed,

967
00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:38,040
Speaker 1: middle school, high school, and I grew up in Atlanta,

968
00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:42,560
Speaker 1: So I'm accustomed to seeing black money. I'm accustomed to

969
00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:45,680
Speaker 1: seeing black excellence. Been in the King's Center, Martin Luther

970
00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:48,920
Speaker 1: King's House, my brother Evan he's a Baptist church did

971
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:56,040
Speaker 1: all of this. So you can't tell me that I'm

972
00:58:56,080 --> 00:59:00,640
Speaker 1: not great. You can't tell me we can't do great stuff.

973
00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:04,760
Speaker 1: And you have proof that we can't. Yeah, because you've

974
00:59:04,760 --> 00:59:07,959
Speaker 1: seen us do it. They they just spent five weeks

975
00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:14,280
Speaker 1: celebrating it with the last dance, right, So what do

976
00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:16,680
Speaker 1: we what? Wait? What do we? What do we? What

977
00:59:16,760 --> 00:59:19,200
Speaker 1: are we doing? And so I think it's gotten to

978
00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:20,840
Speaker 1: the point where it's just like we're in the middle

979
00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:23,120
Speaker 1: of the because this is the hardest thing about what's

980
00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:26,560
Speaker 1: going on right now. As as black people, when these

981
00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:30,240
Speaker 1: things happen, you get around your friends, you're in a

982
00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:32,960
Speaker 1: safe space and I don't know, always use the turn

983
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:35,000
Speaker 1: and safe space because all these girls talking about safe space,

984
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,440
Speaker 1: save space, safe face girl, I'm in America. Ain't know

985
00:59:37,440 --> 00:59:41,720
Speaker 1: where safe but it's at my mama house. That's the limit.

986
00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:46,400
Speaker 1: Um tell about the pandemic. Mm hmm, the pandemic. It's

987
00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:50,080
Speaker 1: and I'm trying to find the best way to explain

988
00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:54,360
Speaker 1: that because I know how I feel m whenever things

989
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:58,400
Speaker 1: like this happened, whenever there's this you know, now we're

990
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:01,320
Speaker 1: marching again, and now you know, even during the march

991
01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:03,520
Speaker 1: somebody else got killed. They're not listening to us, they're

992
01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:06,439
Speaker 1: not paying attention. You have the opportunities to be around

993
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:08,920
Speaker 1: other black people and I don't have to say anything.

994
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:12,000
Speaker 1: I don't have to tell somebody I'm okay. I don't

995
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:13,680
Speaker 1: have to do I don't have to go through all

996
01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:17,400
Speaker 1: of this emotional labor trying to make you feel okay,

997
01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:19,960
Speaker 1: because that's the other part, because if they feel like

998
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:22,040
Speaker 1: they didn't make us feel better, then not going through

999
01:00:22,040 --> 01:00:24,200
Speaker 1: the emotional labor making you feel better for not making

1000
01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:26,720
Speaker 1: me feel better. This is not this is not fair

1001
01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:29,439
Speaker 1: to me. You call to make me feel better. Man,

1002
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:32,200
Speaker 1: Hey man, get off my phone, because you know what,

1003
01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:33,600
Speaker 1: you're not gonna get it. You don't even go to

1004
01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:37,720
Speaker 1: the school, so you're not gonna get it. But you

1005
01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:40,120
Speaker 1: have the opportunity usually when things like this happened, to

1006
01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:43,080
Speaker 1: be around other black people and to be in a

1007
01:00:43,120 --> 01:00:44,919
Speaker 1: space where I don't have to tell you what's wrong,

1008
01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:47,960
Speaker 1: and we can heal off the energy of each other

1009
01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:50,040
Speaker 1: and get that little boost that you need to just

1010
01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:54,920
Speaker 1: be like all right, let's go do this again. And

1011
01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:58,680
Speaker 1: now we're in a pandemic, so it's I can't be

1012
01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:04,200
Speaker 1: around my friend, I can't get that recharge. I can't

1013
01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:09,040
Speaker 1: get that that thing of you get it. Yeah, I'm

1014
01:01:09,080 --> 01:01:11,960
Speaker 1: not on my phone yell right, I'm not yelling into

1015
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:14,960
Speaker 1: the void of the internet. It's you're just like you

1016
01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:16,720
Speaker 1: just get to sit there and you're just like I am.

1017
01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:19,760
Speaker 1: With black people, I am good. Even if we're you know,

1018
01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:21,520
Speaker 1: even if we're at a comedy club, we're in a

1019
01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:25,959
Speaker 1: white space. All of us are here and everybody here

1020
01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:29,960
Speaker 1: gets it, and it's a way to heal in the recharge.

1021
01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:31,840
Speaker 1: And we can't do that right. And that's one of

1022
01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:34,840
Speaker 1: the hardest parts about this. And now they're talking about

1023
01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:37,000
Speaker 1: the numbers might go back up with the COVID because

1024
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:40,640
Speaker 1: of the protest, and I'm just like, what is I

1025
01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:44,040
Speaker 1: want to refund? Next year needs to be also called

1026
01:01:44,760 --> 01:01:50,960
Speaker 1: because we need to do it. History it was, and

1027
01:01:50,960 --> 01:01:56,200
Speaker 1: then it was two. Everybody's the same age. You ain't

1028
01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:59,320
Speaker 1: getting no older fucking doing birthday party. This did not

1029
01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:02,560
Speaker 1: happen where you want to reset, don't print one. Calendar

1030
01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:09,040
Speaker 1: is just yet all over again because something something slipped

1031
01:02:09,040 --> 01:02:11,600
Speaker 1: in the matrix. I don't know who's god you piste off,

1048
01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:22,240
Speaker 1: we were talking about Tales from the Hood. And first

1049
01:03:22,240 --> 01:03:24,600
Speaker 1: of all, a movie has never scared me as much

1050
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:27,840
Speaker 1: as that movie did, which is why I couldn't. I

1051
01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:31,760
Speaker 1: just it's so scary, UM, and I don't do Worr movies.

1052
01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:34,560
Speaker 1: It was awful, but there's four vignettes in it. In

1053
01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:39,520
Speaker 1: the first vignette is about police brutality, so we you know,

1054
01:03:39,560 --> 01:03:41,440
Speaker 1: talk about the four different vignettes in the movie and

1055
01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:45,080
Speaker 1: how they're relevant to what's going on right now. And

1056
01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:48,200
Speaker 1: I've talked to like Ron funch Is about Fear of

1057
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:50,320
Speaker 1: a Black Hat. I talked to THEA of a Doll

1058
01:03:51,120 --> 01:03:55,160
Speaker 1: about her show THEA and how you know, back in

1059
01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:57,560
Speaker 1: the mid nineties she was fighting to get black writers

1060
01:03:57,560 --> 01:04:01,400
Speaker 1: on her show, and which is crazy because we're still

1061
