131
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: know growing up in that neighborhood and changing, I want

132
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 1: to go back to where this beautiful change happened. You know,

133
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,040
Speaker 1: was it going to prison or where where did this

134
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: transition in your life occur? Walkers down that Actually it

135
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 1: was funny I had occurred. I was actually selling. I

136
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: was in between Minnesota and between Minnesota Chicago. I was

137
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: living fifteen keys to Chicago from Minnesota on the seal,

138
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 1: and I bought Malcolm X Autobiography and I read Malcolm

139
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: X Autobiography on the road. And then by the time

140
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: I got there, I cut my hair off because I

141
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: in Malcolm X Autobiography they was talking about kunks and

142
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: it was talking about how we as black men try

143
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: to be like everybody else with our hair and our

144
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 1: women and all that stuff. And so in the book

145
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 1: it affected me that much that I said, I didn't

146
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 1: want to sell drugs not and I don't want to

147
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,119
Speaker 1: cume my hair. So I stayed in Chicago for a while,

148
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: but I didn't know how to do nothing else because

149
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: I have been selling drugs and banging so long, and

150
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 1: I was like, I didn't want to just become like

151
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: just over Muslim at one time. So I ended up

152
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: saying that Chicago, making long story short, I came back home.

153
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: I ended up doing some other stuff. So I went

171
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 1: me even more than that was I've already been reading,

172
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,559
Speaker 1: so my mind was already in a different place. But

173
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 1: for young men. And that's not and this is not

174
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 1: just unique to African American Mexican's wife, it's everybody. I

175
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: was sitting in the courtroom and they were they were

176
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 1: talking about me in the courtroom in the language that

177
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: I couldn't understand, and they were speaking in English, right,

178
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 1: you under said, So it was at that moment that

179
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 1: I understood it, like, damn, you didn't delivered yourself to

180
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 1: these people and they're talking about you in front of you,

181
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: and you don't understand the word they're saying. So I

182
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,719
Speaker 1: wouldn't got the Black Laws Dictionary. And while I was

183
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: in there and I started studying the law. So then

184
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 1: I started. But I've already got found guilty to the

185
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 1: fifty six years. So in the process that I had

186
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 1: caught another case while I was imprisoned, while while I

187
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 1: was an account of jaialist sticking on the police officers

188
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: and I didn't do it. They didn't know who did it,

189
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 1: but they said something. Anyway. I ended up fighting that

190
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: case per per, and so that started me when you

191
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: represent yourself, now you're doing the same thing to us

192
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:59,760

194
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And this lit up, and I'm like, okay,

195
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 1: now you're talking lawyer, because I don't know what you say.

196
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: Everybody's were over here, like huh Mark Washerman over there

197
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: in the porters starting their own fucking firm. What we

198
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 1: heard Washerman like, yeah, I'm can you say that in English? Yeah?

199
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 1: That's what they meant, though, is like you know you could, Yeah,

200
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 1: that's exactly what he meant. He was like like, what

00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: is that purper? What that proper? And tell us about

202
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,320
Speaker 1: what happened? So signed up. No, it was just that

203
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: was that was that was the process of body me

204
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: going proper. I started understanding the law and then I

205
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: was and I understood that the way they charged us

206
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 1: in our communities just wrong. So I still ended up

207
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 1: I had to go back. I got sent to the

208
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: fifty six years. I had them getting that back to

209
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: Tree then for twenty three I did it thirteen, but

210
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: I really was only supposed to do like nine. But

211
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,320
Speaker 1: I had called I did three years and nine months

212
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,320
Speaker 1: in the hole. So that's why right when I parode,

213
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: when I seen when I met Blue Nim, I was

214
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 1: just coming out the hole. So I had been in.

215
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 1: I had been in solideary confinement for three years and

216
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 1: nine months years and then I prode fifteen days out

217
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 1: of out of out of the hole. So my mind

218
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 1: was I wasn't even used to being around people, which

219
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 1: you reading a lot more that what kept you going

220
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 1: in that really just programming. Man. It was kind of

221
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 1: like my first my first two months in the hole

222
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 1: because of my sticking, because of my accused assault on staff.

223
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: They were um. So I had problems with the with

224
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: the with the with the officers and them placing me

225
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 1: first in the hole. So I had to get past that,

226
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: let them resentments go the killer killer, and so I

227
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 1: finally once I once I got pasted that, it was

228
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: more like I started. I got the regular population, which

229
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,400
Speaker 1: was still hold solid confinement in the cell by yourself

230
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: twenty four hours a day. There is to give us

231
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: eight hours a week. So what they would do is

232
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 1: because it was so many people in the whole. They

233
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:10,719
Speaker 1: couldn't give you your one hour a day or your

234
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: two hours a day that you're supposed to get. They'll

235
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 1: come give you eight hours. They'll come get they'll start

236
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: to sale one and they go out. And then how

237
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,959
Speaker 1: many people want to go out? If it's raining, if

238
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: it's healing, if it's sunny, if it's whatever, You're going

239
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 1: out there in a pair of drawls down and go

240
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: put you in a little kettle. They should put us

241
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,559
Speaker 1: in these uh, these kettles, the dog kettles with the

242
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 1: toilet in the sink. And you never want to see

243
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,440
Speaker 1: each other, ship and everything right there right at your outdoors. Yeah,

244
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 1: you're right next door. This is how close we were.

245
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: Yeah right right right, yeah, change out of hand. You

246
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: can't get your hand all the way through. You're chained up.

247
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: You're like, now they know once you get into, once

248
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 1: you get into okay, so you know. But but I

249
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 1: did that, and it was that that was like my

250
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 1: mental transformation, that was part of it. But that was

251
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 1: a firm me to say that I when I came home,

252
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 1: I wanted to help people and I wanted to be

253
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: able to give back to black and brown people of

254
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: our community that that don't know and especially who are

255
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,559
Speaker 1: going through it we went through and not realizing that

256
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: they these people have a power of us if we

257
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: give it to him. So I've been I made in

258
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: my life work too to change people. And the one

259
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 1: thing that that that I like this Californians did is

260
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,439
Speaker 1: is taking the um and changing the laws as far

261
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 1: as cannabis. And it's the reason why shows like you

262
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: Guys show is important and these shows need to go south.

267
00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:00,120

Speaker 1: I hired a lawyer, so I'm I'm a parole violate

307
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 1: my parole and said they found it in my um.

308
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: When I go to my morrison, here the judge of

309
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: my worstion here and is like, well, was the driver there? Yes?

310
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 1: Was he driving the court? Yes? So why is he here?

311
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 1: Because he he was on? Because I'm big you, because

312
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 1: I was a big you. And so it went from there.

313
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 1: In the an attorney, I mean, the cop um was

314
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: being beligion with the judge and she was like, I

315
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 1: don't know if you realize it, but you are in

316
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: a real court of law. And they was going out

317
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 1: at beefing. Oh yes, I'm like. She was like, what

318
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: are you talking to? And so we went through that

319
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 1: press has to make a long story short. They called

320
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 1: my brother a gang member because he was in the

321
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:10,400
Speaker 1: car with me, right, and so the judge was like, well,

322
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 1: why did you call him a game member? Because in

323
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 1: this is now we're going to my brother's trial. Judge though,

324
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: I love the fact that, let me tell you what

325
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 1: the cops said. This white cops said. He said, we

326
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,880
Speaker 1: call all of them gaming. So the judge said, was gonnderstand? Yeah,

327
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,479
Speaker 1: just said, well what if he was in the car

328
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: with his mother should be a game member? Two. The

329
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 1: judge almost stood up. The white just the white judge.

330
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:39,920
Speaker 1: He almost living. He is living, bro, he's it's the

331
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 1: white judge. He's stand white guy. He stands up. He's

332
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 1: like what. Then he calms himself down. He says back

333
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 1: down and he says what do you mean by that?

334
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 1: And he's like, well, their their mothers and fathers helped

335
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:55,920
Speaker 1: them do crimes. The mother this is happening in front

336
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,440
Speaker 1: of you in real life. Like, I can't make this up.

337
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 1: They even said I They told them I said I

338
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: was a gaming but I had tattoos. I don't have

339
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:07,119
Speaker 1: a tattoo. So the judges like when when I was

340
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 1: at the standard, just like, do you have any tattoos

341
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: right now? The judge took over the case. He basically

342
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 1: asking all the questions. Yeah, sure, I'm not handled starts representing.

343
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 1: But it all goes back to marijuana though, So it

344
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 1: all goes back to me because after they found the

345
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 1: marijuana they used, they used the marijuana to say that

346
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 1: was the reason why they searched. It hadn't even been open.

347
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 1: It was still in the pack, it was still sulled.

348
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 1: When they got they had their bets. It was like

349
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:44,879
Speaker 1: he ready to ship, like like you ship. It wasn't

350
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 1: going right, Yeah allegedly you di're not smelling, like come on.

351
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,399
Speaker 1: But I'm just happy though that California. But I'm so

352
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: involved in the case. So the judge was so livid.

353
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,119
Speaker 1: The judge has had each one of our attorneys right

354
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 1: a dissertation to uh to this case. And it was

355
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: and I was to address the search and cdure part

356
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 1: and the contact part. And before he even let us

357
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 1: read ours, the prosecuting attorney was like, we ain't writing nothing.

358
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,199
Speaker 1: We're just gonna drop the case. You're gonna let it go.

359
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 1: So when he came back to court, they dropped the

360
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 1: whole case against him and let it go. It was

361
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,439
Speaker 1: it was ridiculous, and but the judge was like, no,

362
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 1: we're not stopping right here. I want to talk to

363
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 1: this this this cops. Want to talk to the cops. Uh,

364
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 1: who's ever over here to be a little what do

365
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 1: you mean? Yeah? We done, No, we we we could go. No,

366
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,719
Speaker 1: you're gonna watch the lecture these mother Price judge was hot, bro.

367
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 1: He was like because he felt like if this was

368
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 1: the mentality this out on the street from the sergeants

369
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,880
Speaker 1: and the lieutenants, what are the guys I mean, which

370
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 1: is out there which we've seen over and over and over. Well,

371
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: that's that's the statement. I tell people. A lot of

372
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 1: people that didn't grow up in l a man like

373
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: I gorong a period highway bro and and cops were

374
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 1: gang bangers, you know what I mean? Like you you

375
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 1: you you say that. You can say that to your

376
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,199
Speaker 1: mom or some other elder that doesn't really get it

377
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 1: because they weren't there. But cops were gang banging back

378
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: in the day. They would literally pull you out of

379
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 1: the car. Not even back in the day blue they

380
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 1: still on This is my point though, is that at

381
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 1: that time, though the streets were so rough, Is that

382
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 1: that that they kind of had to But then it

383
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: stopped and the streets didn't get so rough. And guess what,

384
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: the cops kept gang banging and they kept ringing. A

385
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 1: lot of us got like, okay, we all know who

386
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 1: the crazy cops are. You know, if if, if, if

387
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 1: all of us are sitting in the car there, damn

388
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: near gonna go. Why are you rolling with these guys? Question? Ye,

389
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 1: Mark's driving in the car. They're looking at us like, Okay,

390
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: I'm shutting the funk up. Don't gonna ask Mark? Is

00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 1: you riding with your own will? That's the kind they

393
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 1: used to do that. Yeah, I had girlfriends? Why that

394
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 1: was dated? Happening to me three times? Are you a kaynous? Like?

395
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:22,360
Speaker 1: What then? Do you mean using me? She's using me?

396
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,159
Speaker 1: What you know the problem is? You know what the

397
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 1: answer that is they need to let cops smoke me

398
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 1: and want them. Yeah, yeah, man, you're not trying. If

399
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:34,640
Speaker 1: they cops, it'll be a whole commer police force. Can

400
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:38,920
Speaker 1: you imagine? Yeah, we're fucking round it being Maybee. Maybe

401
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 1: they started selling everybody that they kind of flipping training

402
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:53,719
Speaker 1: days with no fake movie, no so so so they

403
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 1: dropped that case, you know, And that's very fortunate of that.

404
00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,439
Speaker 1: That's a beautiful thing because it seems like it was

405
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 1: it was home. Like they're trying to frame it on

406
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 1: you again because you were the guy in parole and

407
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 1: I was. I had a bigger name. My name names

408
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 1: holds a lot of way. It's funny big you. As

409
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 1: I hear you say that, and I'm just curious too,

410
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 1: would you give a tribute to your success of changing

411
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: to reading. Malcolm X was the first one that you say,

412
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: you go in, who really did it? Blue Little gave

413
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 1: you his brother's book. Don't know. Let's me going, I'm

414
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 1: Blue Little. That's my real last name. If you don't know,

415
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 1: those who don't know, that's Malcolm X's real last name. Cats.

416
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. That's not my history. It's

417
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 1: funny though, because as you say that, I'm a huge

418
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 1: fan of it too, and just knowledge and going to

419
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 1: school getting your degree and things like that. Like you know,

420
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: I've always been a proponent. I was the first of

421
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:57,639
Speaker 1: my family to do it, and I look at it

422
00:22:57,680 --> 00:22:59,959
Speaker 1: like I've soaked in so much knowledge. The streets give

423
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 1: you a lot of knowledge as well. Don't get it twisted.

424
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 1: But when you soak up that game, that talk that

425
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:06,919
Speaker 1: you refer to when you go to court and you

426
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 1: hear these people talking about you and the way you

427
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 1: don't know, you need to soak up that type of

428
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 1: knowledge folks from reading, from learning, and be inspired by

429
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,879
Speaker 1: a book like Malcolm X. Then if something happens which

430
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 1: big you, it didn't shake him up straight Malcolm X,

431
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 1: after rolling his grave going that motherfucker didn't read my

432
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:28,119
Speaker 1: book well enough, he took by any means necessary, to

433
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:32,360
Speaker 1: a whole nother level. By that being said, he said

434
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,160
Speaker 1: he went back in and read more and then learned

435
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 1: the law, which is crazy and dope all in the

436
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 1: same factors that said himself, I think it's called mercy.

437
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 1: That was not that kind of reminds me of that

438
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 1: the lawyer and reading it just it's just great knowledge.

439
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:47,880
Speaker 1: And for that's why I was like, would you say

440
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 1: you would attribute the change to reading? Definitely, without a doubt.

441
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 1: That's mama papons to reading and it's not just watch

442
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: I'll be talking to my kids. Do you tell my well,

443
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 1: he got books on um addie, yo, if you read it,

444
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 1: you reinforce it once you read it, and you and

445
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 1: you and you read it and you see those words.

446
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,120
Speaker 1: They can never take that from you. I got another story.

447
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,919
Speaker 1: I know you know. When I first got the prison,

448
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: I had read the title of fifteen. And the tile

449
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 1: of fifteen is a book that they give you, is

450
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 1: the book of rules that you can write the police

451
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 1: up for violating yourself of violence. It's called the title fifteen.

452
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:30,880
Speaker 1: I read the title of fifteen, and I just memorize

453
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:32,679
Speaker 1: what I needed when you can write them up in

454
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 1: prison or in prison. In prison, so if if you're

455
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,719
Speaker 1: it's the title charges on the police officer while you're there,

456
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 1: are on yourself. It tells you what you can what

457
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,679
Speaker 1: you can't do. It tells you what you're supposed to have,

458
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,679
Speaker 1: what you're not supposed to add I had read the

459
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:50,120
Speaker 1: title of fifteen. So when I got there, um by

460
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,359
Speaker 1: me being big you, when I got to the yard,

461
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: a lot of people have gave me a lot of stuff,

462
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 1: and they sent me TV. I had TV or radio, hotpot.

463
00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: But I wasn't supposed to have all that stuff because

464
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 1: I was reception so when the police seen it before,

465
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 1: you get this stuff. So the police going my cell,

466
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,359
Speaker 1: I walked the child and going to sell it, just

467
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 1: rabbits to sell tad to sell up. I went and

468
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: wrote six or two was just complaint for him from memory.

469
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,440
Speaker 1: And I wrote the complaint for him from just remembering,

470
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: just from what I do that and I just dropped

471
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 1: it under the under the um my first time of

472
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:31,679
Speaker 1: writing one. Didn't even know it was gonna work. And

473
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 1: I slid under the door and we kept on going

474
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,320
Speaker 1: back to child. So as the next morning, by time

475
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,880
Speaker 1: I came back, they had everything that they had took

476
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 1: but the TV and the radio because I wasn't even

477
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 1: supposed to have that. But they even gave me the

478
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,560
Speaker 1: crop pop back. I wouldn't had that yet, but there

479
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 1: was like, man, we're gonna make a deal with You're

480
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:49,679
Speaker 1: gonna give you this back. And but but that was

481
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 1: the point that made me realize that if you read it,

482
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: the one thing they can't do is take that from you,

483
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,119
Speaker 1: if you played the game right, They couldn't take that

484
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,120
Speaker 1: knowledge from me that I had obtained. They could take

485
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: me physically, take my shoes, my clothes, but it was

486
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 1: the knowledge I had obtained from reading the book that

487
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 1: I realized in that moment that they could not take

488
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 1: from me. Right, And I've been telling that the kids

489
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,359
Speaker 1: forever get the knowledge in the books, get what you

490
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 1: the information they can't take. They can take your life,

491
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 1: but they cannot take with you your education. They can

492
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 1: and they're still gonna suk with us because we're black

493
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 1: and brown, period, and it's gonna happen and we can't

494
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: get That's why I love the script. But Mark says

495
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,639
Speaker 1: it because you know it can funk with us. The

496
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: bad cop is gonna be a bad cop. But if

497
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,720
Speaker 1: you know your rules and you know your rights, you

498
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 1: follow the script, you shut the funk up. You're gonna

499
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,199
Speaker 1: get out of this in a better way. Period. You know,

500
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:43,400
Speaker 1: one of my mentors they need to smoke weed. Yeah, smoke,

501
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,160
Speaker 1: go from blue to green, you know. You know one

502
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 1: of the one of my mentors Is has always told

503
00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 1: me says, once your mind expands from its original form,

504
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 1: it can never go back. And that's exactly what reading does.

505
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: It expands your mind from its original forms, so therefore

506
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,360
Speaker 1: it cannot go back. It's like writing the bike. Once

507
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 1: you learn how to ride a bike, ninety percent of

508
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,119
Speaker 1: the time. You can ride a bike your rest of

509
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 1: your life. You know, it might not be as good

510
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,479
Speaker 1: as riding that bike, but you sure do remember how

511
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 1: to ride that dad bike. And so that's the kind

512
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 1: of education that you know, our youth needs to get

513
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 1: first and foremost and then. And that's what I've seen

514
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 1: you doing. I mean throughout the years, man, I've you know,

515
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 1: I've watched you ever since you've been out like I've

516
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 1: watched you, you know, spend a large portion of your

517
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:28,360
Speaker 1: private personal time to helping youth. You know what I mean, hours, dude,

518
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 1: Hours and hours on the football field, hours and hours

519
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 1: at community centers, hours and hours putting proposals together. I

520
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 1: met up on you know, with them till three in

521
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 1: the morning, with secretaries on the phone and we're trying

522
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 1: to put together, you know, proposals for ship. I mean,

523
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,439
Speaker 1: this man puts his life out there to help others,

524
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,439
Speaker 1: to educate people and give them something that maybe he

525
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 1: possibly didn't have that same direction on. So yeah, no,

526
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm a big fan of this man. It's

527
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 1: funny for those that's the ex cripts leader Big You,

528
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 1: also known as Eugene Hanley from the belly button name.

529
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 1: And as you as you go to that right that

530
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,199
Speaker 1: belly button name, you cut the cord. Baby, that's your

531
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,200
Speaker 1: name from the cord. And as you hear all this,

532
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,119
Speaker 1: even yourself, and you get to look back and you

533
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 1: think of your own childhood and say, you know, and

534
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,479
Speaker 1: then you just said it like we didn't have that chance.

535
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 1: When you see some of these kids though, so going

536
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,639
Speaker 1: in a different direction, the ones that you're trying to

537
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:26,120
Speaker 1: help that can't though, how is that message? It's gotta

538
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 1: be so hard, But how do you try to relate

539
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: that message? Man? Funk that big you we out here

540
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,360
Speaker 1: doing it? Doc, Come on, you know what I mean?

541
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 1: I kind of usually don't get that. I've seen people

542
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: get it, get them, give them what you know what

543
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. The mean, I know you can ground

544
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: and get big big brother, but you know with me,

545
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 1: with me, when kids talk to me, it's kind of

546
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 1: hard for him to tell me because I've been in yeah,

547
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 1: and so so what kids tend to do? What I

548
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: see when people reaching out the kids and they minded

549
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 1: thinking he ain't never struggled, not But for me, they

550
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 1: know I struggled because it's the information age. So before

551
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 1: we walk through a room. They already know everything about you.

552
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: There is you know, the intern. They're gonna tell him

553
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 1: everything about you, answer make stuff that it really ain't true,

554
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 1: So you know, but so they so with me is

555
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 1: different because I mean, I can tell the kid, I've

556
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 1: been hungry, I've been chased, I've been under cards, I've

557
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 1: been the shot for Let me, it's not seven different times,

558
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So it's like, I know

559
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 1: what you're going through, and I'm where you need to

560
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,640
Speaker 1: get to. I'm where you're trying to get to, So

561
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 1: let me help you get there because I need to

562
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 1: find out what's going on with you, what's really bothering you,

563
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,280
Speaker 1: And you need to understand. Because I had a kid

564
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 1: to day I was turning to and his problem with

565
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: his father and his mother is that he gotta do

566
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: too much. I gotta clean up, I gotta do this thing.

567
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 1: I do that. I'm ready to leave home. And I said,

568
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 1: I guess what's gonna happen. You know you're gonna leave home.

569
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 1: You're gonna be going to your party house for two weeks,

570
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 1: three weeks, They're gonna get tired. Eve be in there.

571
00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: You're gonna do all the cleaning up your home. We're

572
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 1: gonna figure out he gotta clean up to stay here.

573
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 1: He ain't gonna have to clean up. You have to

574
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: clean up. But then when you get there, if it's

575
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 1: a real structured house, you're gonna have to do homework,

576
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 1: the same thing you're running for at home. So and

577
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: I'm telling these kids because right now I have a

578
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: real problem in my community where kids don't have nowhere

579
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 1: to go. Remind me of me. So now I'm buying

580
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: hotels at night. I'm trying to get these kids somewhere

581
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,959
Speaker 1: to stay because I can't let them sleep in my

582
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 1: store all night, every night, you know what I mean.

583
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 1: So I got sometime I little sleep in the store.

584
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 1: Sometimes I'm like, man, listen, I gotta go home, you

585
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 1: know what I mean. And it's real. It's like right

586
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,959
Speaker 1: now today, today, I'm talking about today. I don't got

587
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 1: enough money to to help every kid that needs somewhere

588
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 1: to sleep, because then they'll figure out what, Uncle, give

589
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 1: us some money to go, get some one to sleep.

590
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 1: I get one room, you know what I mean. I'm like, look,

591
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,479
Speaker 1: if the rumors tore up, if y'all messed this room up,

592
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 1: I ain't get your on the room, No, you know

593
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: what I mean. And then I gotta get him to

594
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 1: school right so, and then it's like if they get

595
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: kicked out the house, I figured it's a four day

596
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 1: window before the parents ready to let him come back.

597
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: You know what I mean about a four day window.

598
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 1: And I gotta keep him alive and keep him out

599
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 1: of trouble within that four days, you know what I mean.

600
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 1: So I'll be looking at that. Good analogy is if

601
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: you get if you get arrested, you're gonna be cleaning yourself,

602
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 1: your mama's let alone, this cat's card and you get

603
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 1: your Okay, let's just say you got a job and

604
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 1: it's a blessing and you start getting up your own apartment.

605
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 1: Guess what you gotta do at an apartment. You gotta

606
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 1: clean up, you everything, pay the fucking bills that paying.

607
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 1: It's so crazy that kid who don't even get that,

648
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:08,040
Speaker 1: three days. Bro, Everybody was looking at me like, so,

649
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 1: D didn't just engage with the CBD tasters oils and

650
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:17,040
Speaker 1: rubs and smoke like that. And that's funny, that's exactly

651
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 1: what I do. I don't do and I think th HC.

652
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:22,360
Speaker 1: I've been over twenty two plus years, no alcohol, no drugs,

653
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 1: at all. So it's like I only do exactly what

654
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 1: that is. I'm drinking this new CBD drink which is

655
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:30,800
Speaker 1: called kill Cliff strictly CBD, all this type of stuff

656
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: like that. I find it so much better for the body,

657
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 1: and especially guys like us that are so fucking big

658
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 1: that you know, I mean, yeah, it's just be too

659
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 1: big for the body. It's like, okay, I can't be

660
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: living like that. So what made you though lean towards that, Well,

661
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,120
Speaker 1: just really just studying it. Um. It was. It was

662
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,279
Speaker 1: so many laws that was changing to California, and then

663
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,480
Speaker 1: I already always felt that let me tell you this,

664
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 1: I don't know if I can say that, say whatever

665
00:34:56,600 --> 00:35:01,160
Speaker 1: you want. Okay, Well, in prison, the only thing that

666
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 1: kept the animals calm come was marijuana. So they need it,

667
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying about. The cops need marijuana. Isn't

668
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:13,160
Speaker 1: that crazy that they got weed in fucking prison? And

669
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 1: yet all the ship it starts with that in the car,

670
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,040
Speaker 1: I smell weed and then we're gonna put you in

671
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 1: jail where you can smoke. And it's just nuts to

672
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 1: think that how the system really works, because you're thinking,

673
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 1: oh my god, there's more anecdotal evidence right there, and

674
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:32,360
Speaker 1: now big us running with the anecdotal evidence saying cannabis

675
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 1: works best when you're in prison for the craziest. And

676
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: you know, that type of evidence though, is like, you know,

677
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 1: hence the seaweed bowlers. When are more people are gonna

678
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: realize that one of the cops gonna realize that the

679
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 1: government that they fuck it. It's working here. It's because,

680
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 1: let's just face it, it's not like they can use

681
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:56,400
Speaker 1: that anecdotal evidence say it's really working well in prison,

682
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,759
Speaker 1: but it is. And big you, how do you think

683
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 1: or do you know or can you tell? How did

684
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,840
Speaker 1: that cannabis get into prison? Is it strictly the guards?

685
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 1: Is it straight up tennis ball? Everybody's over then shut

686
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:20,000
Speaker 1: come on, you didn't really ask that, an I just

687
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:23,399
Speaker 1: say that they need it. And that's the reason why

688
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 1: I'm in this field because I see the comming effect

689
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:32,399
Speaker 1: of I mean, I mean, I don't know the healing point,

690
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 1: but I know them it sometimes some people needs it,

691
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:40,560
Speaker 1: you know what, so much need it? I need it,

692
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:46,360
Speaker 1: needs it. I've had two hip surgeries. I have this

693
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 1: bad ankle right and after the two hip surgeries, I

694
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,359
Speaker 1: tore my laborers had to slice my i TU band

695
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,240
Speaker 1: up to put it in there to replace my laborers,

696
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 1: which then gave me fucking arthritis. So now I'm, you know,

697
00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:00,479
Speaker 1: forty eight years old walking with this limp. The time

698
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 1: before I started using set, my pain would be you know,

699
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 1: seven eight level from a one to ten, and it's

700
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 1: dropped down to like a good four or five six

701
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,760
Speaker 1: when it gets cold. So my point is, I see

702
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:14,399
Speaker 1: how it's helped me at quote unquote a younger age

703
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 1: of forty eight, But look at that sixty year old woman,

704
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:20,800
Speaker 1: six year old who really could use some help, partly

705
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: than popping all these pills and going, you know what,

706
00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:29,080
Speaker 1: I'm taking all this fucking medication. Yeah, my liver, my

707
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,839
Speaker 1: old certain, my gut, everything else. And it's like you've

708
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 1: got this organic natural way. So there's so much hold

709
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 1: that thought. Man, it's Cannabis Talk one one will be

Speaker 1: Big You, here you go. How old are you the

720
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:29,759
Speaker 1: first time you smoked weed? And where did you get

721
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:37,360
Speaker 1: it from? First time? Uh? Maybe nine? Look at that

722
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 1: thoughts nine were I had. I had a family friend.

723
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 1: She used to sell marijuana, and we was at She

724
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 1: lived across from from the elementary school. So when she

725
00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: would leave, she would just give us two bags to hold,

726
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 1: like when certain people come by hooking him up. And

727
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,239
Speaker 1: then we didn't really know what side. She just knew

728
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:02,120
Speaker 1: with bags, right, so we knew because that's back then

729
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 1: to sell them by sticks. So you can get the

730
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:06,479
Speaker 1: stick out of this was this was a one dollar

731
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 1: one and this one was a was a five out

732
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,240
Speaker 1: of sticks. We knew it was the one up five,

733
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 1: So you picked the one of the five stick up

734
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:16,440
Speaker 1: and then no, we just my my my cousin, my

735
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:20,319
Speaker 1: older cousin used to take them and split them and

736
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,800
Speaker 1: then take something out and roll it back up. Yeah,

737
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 1: And that was what you got your first week. And

738
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 1: it was like the same thing to me. It was

739
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 1: the same high as the first cigarette. Yeah, people, it

740
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 1: was like the first cigarette. Yeah, it's like the early

741
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 1: age or you're nine, you're exactly. That's the point is

831
00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:38,600
Speaker 1: you know, getting high to get high versus like, you know,

832
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:40,640

00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 1: high that I was just getting how to get high

834
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:44,360

836
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 1: I'm just not one hundred when I'm when I'm getting high,

837
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,680

00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:10,480
Speaker 1: back to you, Bill big You before we let you go.

925
00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:13,839

926
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:16,680
Speaker 1: know how did you meet Nipsey and how did that

927
00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,640
Speaker 1: relationship come about where you started working with him? Down

928
00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:22,520
Speaker 1: with Nipsey, we all grew up from the same neighborhood.

929
00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:25,440
Speaker 1: Nipcy is like my baby homeboy, like he like maybe

930
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:28,719
Speaker 1: seven eight generations under me in an arch of the

931
00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:32,160
Speaker 1: Row of sixties in the crypts. So when I when

932
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:35,480
Speaker 1: I came home, I was dealing with Sugar first. So

933
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:38,719
Speaker 1: and dealing with Sugar, I went through that learning you know,

934
00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:41,680
Speaker 1: I went. I went from HARRYO first and dealing with

935
00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:43,520
Speaker 1: Harroo in prison. I was in yard with hare You

936
00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:46,800
Speaker 1: for two years. Come on and deal with Sugar and

937
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:49,600
Speaker 1: it's like hearing both of them talk about each other, right, Yeah,

938
00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:52,600
Speaker 1: it was just funny. He's just funny. And if you

939
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 1: don't know who Yo and and and Sugar, they were

940
00:51:55,040 --> 00:52:00,879
Speaker 1: bloods from different big The big means the big leaders

941
00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:03,239
Speaker 1: are both the Crystian the bludy. To talk about this

942
00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:05,640
Speaker 1: is what we had to do. So dealing with both

943
00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,480
Speaker 1: of them then coming on and like I said, um,

944
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:12,400
Speaker 1: just when I I my time was should get ran

945
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:14,400
Speaker 1: out and it was time for me to find another artist.

946
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:16,399
Speaker 1: So that's when I went to my neighborhood and start

947
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:18,840
Speaker 1: looking for artists. And I was kind of like, you know,

948
00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:22,120
Speaker 1: acting around, and my nephew told me about this young

949
00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:25,160
Speaker 1: cat named Nipsy, So I went to go looking for him.

950
00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:27,839
Speaker 1: So when I found him, he played me some music,

951
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:29,800
Speaker 1: He played me bullets and got no name. Like this

952
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:32,520
Speaker 1: is hard, and I'm like, what can we do? And

953
00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:35,040
Speaker 1: so we kind of started moving. I sifted through a

954
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:37,360
Speaker 1: bunch of the artists and then the story kind of

955
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:40,839
Speaker 1: goes from there. We moved on. Um, I couldn't really

956
00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:44,080
Speaker 1: get in the industry because my name was so ominous,

957
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 1: Like I couldn't even get on Big Boy Talk show. Yeah,

958
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:56,600
Speaker 1: but then when you know, they whenever be on the show, Kirt,

959
00:52:56,600 --> 00:53:09,399
Speaker 1: wouldn't you know? I see Fuzzy one time. He didn't

960
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:14,080
Speaker 1: know who I was, and and uh, what was possible? Know?

961
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:15,960
Speaker 1: I knew who he was, but I really didn't. I

962
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,000
Speaker 1: reallyn't know them at time, but I knew. Somebody told

963
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:20,719
Speaker 1: me who he was and I'm talking to him and

964
00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:22,600
Speaker 1: he's like, yeah, yeah, you got a new artance. Okay, bro,

965
00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:28,680
Speaker 1: we're figured out. Did I say I'm big you, he said, change,

966
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:31,239
Speaker 1: So I don't know we can do that to back up,

967
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:33,840
Speaker 1: like but you know fuzzy my boy. But it was

968
00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:37,399
Speaker 1: like that was fighters right there. Yeah, that's how hard

969
00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:40,200
Speaker 1: it was to be big you trying to move in

970
00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:42,640
Speaker 1: the industry. So that's what forced me to go get

971
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:46,080
Speaker 1: Steve Lobel. Yeah, shout out to Steve Man. He's been

982
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:18,759
Speaker 1: so because it was so hard for me. So I'm like,

983
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:24,440
Speaker 1: let me go get Steve somebody that and my wife sister,

984
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:28,240
Speaker 1: my wife's niece was married to Steve, so I already

985
00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:31,400
Speaker 1: that's how I knew Steve from her, and she's always

986
00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:33,160
Speaker 1: telling me about it. So I met him. I met

987
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:37,239
Speaker 1: him at a concert and uh, I introduced myself and

988
00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:39,120
Speaker 1: then we kind of went from there and I'm like, yeah, man,

989
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:40,719
Speaker 1: I have a new artist. Man, I want you to

990
00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 1: help me with him. And we started moving and Steve

991
00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 1: brought like, um, China deal in China, deal in Japan.

992
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 1: He brought John Supiro, which we eventually signed to Cinematic

993
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:58,080
Speaker 1: Music Group, and um. From there, it just took off

994
00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:00,960
Speaker 1: and then we're on the road. I left right after

995
00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:06,719
Speaker 1: that because I got put it in cups so some

996
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:09,200
Speaker 1: other stuff, and so I was like, man, I'm cool

997
00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:11,839
Speaker 1: on this for a second. And that's when I was like, yeah, okay,

998
00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:15,440
Speaker 1: you gotta wake up, you know, like you tripped out

999
00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:21,359
Speaker 1: playing and so you know, and then that it goes

1000
00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:24,040
Speaker 1: like because people you slide sometime, you know what I mean.

1001
00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:26,759
Speaker 1: And so I kind of I left it alone and

1002
00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:29,239
Speaker 1: I had to refocus my life and myself. And that's

1003
00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:31,759
Speaker 1: when like, that's my second life back, really what I

1004
00:55:31,840 --> 00:55:34,719
Speaker 1: just didn't do nothing else but sports football, and I

1005
00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:36,480
Speaker 1: was like, and I focused on that team I was

1006
00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:39,960
Speaker 1: talking about that's in college, that that one and that

1007
00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:42,680
Speaker 1: the youngsters in college right now, and it was only

1008
00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:45,239
Speaker 1: with them every single day, every day nothing what a

1009
00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:47,880
Speaker 1: big changing something like that, And it's gotta make you

1010
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:50,040
Speaker 1: feel and think like, I wonder how many more if

1011
00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:53,040
Speaker 1: I can or what's this group just that specials? And

1012
00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:55,160
Speaker 1: I think it's it's a combination of all but the

1013
00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:57,960
Speaker 1: influence of doing something like that and even gives you.

1014
00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:00,960
Speaker 1: It makes me think, Guy's got bigger purpose for you

1015
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,120
Speaker 1: even here, right, Damn dude, actaid all the time. Man,

1016
00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:06,440
Speaker 1: I see so many people dying and some people are

1017
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:10,120
Speaker 1: going and I'm thinking like, wow, with all these kids, man,

1018
00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:12,160
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So, but I mean, you know,

1019
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:15,000
Speaker 1: I can boast this that with developing Options, which is

1020
00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:18,879
Speaker 1: my company. UM. Over the last fifteen years that I've

1021
00:56:18,880 --> 00:56:20,880
Speaker 1: been doing these contracts with the Mayor's office, we have

1022
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:25,120
Speaker 1: gotten the gang violus down almost like we are in

1023
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:27,400
Speaker 1: a different place than we were, especially with Red and

1024
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:30,040
Speaker 1: Blue in the music industry and in the streets of

1025
00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:34,040
Speaker 1: l A. So the violence is down so much lower

1026
00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:37,239
Speaker 1: than this and it was before I started doing this work.

1027
00:56:37,960 --> 00:56:40,760
Speaker 1: And I really want to take it across the country,

1028
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:43,080
Speaker 1: take an other place, just to develop an option party

1029
00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:45,120
Speaker 1: helping because the difference is what we do is this,

1030
00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:50,080
Speaker 1: we give big homies who are influenials in those neighborhoods

1031
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:53,279
Speaker 1: the ability to go out and work and concentrate on

1032
00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:56,920
Speaker 1: doing that work, like they don't have to go they

1033
00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:58,520
Speaker 1: don't have to go to work, and then come back

1034
00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:02,040
Speaker 1: and do this stay in the hood and being a

1035
00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:06,080
Speaker 1: representative hood and represent and then you know, we were

1036
00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:09,719
Speaker 1: like the ones who really got the real hard to

1037
00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:11,839
Speaker 1: do it right, because it's the ones that it's something

1038
00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:14,279
Speaker 1: out there that really want to help their community. I

1039
00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:16,600
Speaker 1: want to see that community thrive. Because before I came

1040
00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:19,440
Speaker 1: home and we created the brand to Crenshaw brand, it

1041
00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:23,080
Speaker 1: was we didn't we we made Crenshaw something different, not

1042
00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:27,360
Speaker 1: to just us, but the brand was already going because

1043
00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:32,480
Speaker 1: people were formiliar with the Mosha boyzenhood. But we made

1044
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:38,240
Speaker 1: the brand a more accessible brand, you know what I mean? Yeah,

1045
00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:40,680
Speaker 1: and we took it. And so what I wanted to

1046
00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:42,680
Speaker 1: do was cheech my home was how to own their own.

1047
00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:45,720
Speaker 1: So when I came home out of prison, I don't

1048
00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:47,920
Speaker 1: I don't want to say his name wrong, but Moscy Tongue,

1049
00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:51,040
Speaker 1: I hope I said it right. Um, it was was

1050
00:57:51,160 --> 00:57:55,600
Speaker 1: kind of like my my, my mentor, and I felt

1051
00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:58,120
Speaker 1: like we needed to come back and love ourselves. So

1052
00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:02,720
Speaker 1: we needed to create brands that people would love. And

1053
00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:06,320
Speaker 1: what's funny is people don't know Nipsey never went to Crinshaw,

1054
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:12,320
Speaker 1: he never went to Chrishaw. I went to Christia, he

1055
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:19,919
Speaker 1: went to Hambleton. He and so what I was telling

1056
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:21,600
Speaker 1: him what he was when I was teaching him and

1057
00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:23,840
Speaker 1: telling him a little bro, You're gonna take the hood

1058
00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:29,440
Speaker 1: to a whole another level. And he got it. And

1059
00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:32,160
Speaker 1: when I left, he took it and he kept kept

1060
00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:34,360
Speaker 1: going with the brand, with with the brand, you know

1061
00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:36,800
Speaker 1: what I mean, and created his own thing. Yeah. Yeah,

1062
00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:41,280
Speaker 1: he was phenomenal man. He he um, He's gonna do

1063
00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:44,960
Speaker 1: more for us in his going than then probably he

1064
00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:48,000
Speaker 1: would have did if he did went longer because so

1065
00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:50,920
Speaker 1: many kids can see his example and so many and

1066
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:55,480
Speaker 1: they have affirmed his words and his intelligence and and

1067
00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:58,880
Speaker 1: and and talking about businesses and becoming entrepreneurs and doing

1068
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:03,200
Speaker 1: for self and and putting yourself it being a self

1069
00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:05,560
Speaker 1: made and coming out to ghett you can do it

1070
00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:11,840
Speaker 1: type buying in the hood. It was. It was key

1071
00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:14,680
Speaker 1: And like you said, people wouldn't know that ship and

1072
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:16,800
Speaker 1: if you wouldn't pass because that's the message that got

1073
00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:20,520
Speaker 1: sent because of his passing, and and and that's the

1074
00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:23,960
Speaker 1: only thing that that that that makes me be able

1075
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:26,680
Speaker 1: to deal with the comfort of it, like like because

1076
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:29,400
Speaker 1: it was so tragic and the way it happened, and

1077
00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:32,720
Speaker 1: how the whole world's seen it, and it was something

1078
00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:35,880
Speaker 1: that you know, everywhere I go people asking me that

1079
00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:38,520
Speaker 1: and this and this it was and they asked me

1080
00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:41,640
Speaker 1: how coming was so big because I don't think people

1081
00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:46,480
Speaker 1: have ever seen an artist of that magnitude pass. We

1082
00:59:46,600 --> 00:59:49,880
Speaker 1: heard about pot dying, we heard about Biggie Dyan, we

1083
00:59:50,040 --> 00:59:53,680
Speaker 1: heard about what you didn't actually see it. You didn't

1084
00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:55,520
Speaker 1: next to see it. He was just up for a Grammy.

1085
00:59:55,960 --> 00:59:58,640
Speaker 1: He was just you know, doing a TV special for news.

1086
00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:03,000
Speaker 1: So it was something that transcended that. And you've got

1087
01:00:03,080 --> 01:00:06,520
Speaker 1: people who have never seen a person actually and from

1088
01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:10,200
Speaker 1: life from the hood like l A represented coming there.

1089
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 1: He was a good kid, but he was just exactly

1090
01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:15,880
Speaker 1: just going in that direction, changing damn near your images

1091
01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:19,160
Speaker 1: on a cript exactly. Hold on, this is the way

1092
01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:22,160
Speaker 1: the Crips act is doing what in the neighborhood. You're

1093
01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:25,120
Speaker 1: doing what for people? Why do I think this about that?

1094
01:00:25,480 --> 01:00:31,600
Speaker 1: He changes us. I'm saying he was changing. Okay, you

1095
01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:33,800
Speaker 1: got some tattoos that you can see from just looking

1096
01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:36,919
Speaker 1: at his face, But damn, that don't mean he's gonna

1097
01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:38,920
Speaker 1: punch you or slap your stay. Every time he was

1098
01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:40,920
Speaker 1: he was a proper. He was a perfect one. He

1099
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:47,240
Speaker 1: was charismatic, good looking, uh, intelligent, Yeah better snoop, snoop.

1100
01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:55,680
Speaker 1: That was my guy. An no, but but but it

1101
01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:58,840
Speaker 1: was so hurtful because of he was the perfect one.

1102
01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:01,880
Speaker 1: And when I chose him, when I chose to put

1103
01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:04,760
Speaker 1: my money, time and energy behind him, I was looking

1104
01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:08,200
Speaker 1: at all of that like I've seen it. Yeah, I've

1105
01:01:08,200 --> 01:01:10,800
Speaker 1: seen that intelligence because I had to choose who I

1106
01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:13,240
Speaker 1: was gonna put on. You know what I mean. That's

1107
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:15,600
Speaker 1: your pocket that you put My pocket was my money.

1108
01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:18,200
Speaker 1: And when his brother, when his brother went to jail,

1109
01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:21,000
Speaker 1: he lived with me. He lived in my condos, back

1110
01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:26,160
Speaker 1: and forth. And so I've seen it, you know what

1111
01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:29,520
Speaker 1: I mean. And I and everybody else got a chance

1112
01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:32,160
Speaker 1: to see it before he passed. And that's the good thing.

1113
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:34,040
Speaker 1: It didn't even after he passed. Now people see it.

1114
01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:36,240
Speaker 1: So every time I see this is a highlight in

1115
01:01:36,280 --> 01:01:37,560
Speaker 1: my life. To be able to say that I was

1116
01:01:37,880 --> 01:01:39,360
Speaker 1: a part of that, you know what I mean, A

1117
01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:40,960
Speaker 1: lot of people thank you for doing what you did

1118
01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:43,120
Speaker 1: there because a lot of people probably I didn't even

1119
01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:45,920
Speaker 1: know that story. So that I'm thinking you personally, because

1120
01:01:46,440 --> 01:01:48,840
Speaker 1: for you to put that money and time and a

1121
01:01:48,880 --> 01:01:51,720
Speaker 1: lot of artists like that, we have to do Part two.

1122
01:01:52,560 --> 01:01:54,400
Speaker 1: I want to touch real quick on something else that's

1123
01:01:54,480 --> 01:01:57,160
Speaker 1: kind of a street related and how did you deal

1124
01:01:57,240 --> 01:01:59,240
Speaker 1: with and how have you been dealing with I mean,

1125
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:01,720
Speaker 1: you're not thinking leader of the cripts anymore, but you've

1126
01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:04,160
Speaker 1: got a heavy hand and influence it with everybody with

1127
01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:08,000
Speaker 1: the Black Lives Matter movement on. Let's not all fucking

1128
01:02:08,080 --> 01:02:10,360
Speaker 1: go over there and burn everything up and take it all. Anyways,

1129
01:02:10,720 --> 01:02:12,720
Speaker 1: I felt like like I seen cats and Long Beach.

1130
01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:15,200
Speaker 1: It was some crypts and Long Beach for instance, they

1131
01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:17,720
Speaker 1: stood out on one street. Hey, motherfucker's you first some

1132
01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:19,720
Speaker 1: Long Beach. No, they get the funk out of here.

1133
01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:22,280
Speaker 1: My pointage I've seen some crips, and there were crips

1134
01:02:22,320 --> 01:02:24,720
Speaker 1: at the time. Uh stick standing up or something like.

1135
01:02:24,800 --> 01:02:27,880
Speaker 1: It was another example of what crypts do for their

1136
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:31,200
Speaker 1: neighborhoods that are good. My point is with you, big,

1137
01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:33,080
Speaker 1: you being the ex leader of the crypts. How have

1138
01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:35,440
Speaker 1: you had to deal with? What have you had to

1139
01:02:35,560 --> 01:02:37,360
Speaker 1: deal with? And what are you doing? Well, I'm not

1140
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:42,320
Speaker 1: the ex leaders of Chris, you know. I was waiting

1141
01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:47,680
Speaker 1: for something like that. It's no leader to Christ period.

1142
01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:50,680
Speaker 1: But but I know what you're saying. So no, My

1143
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:53,080
Speaker 1: whole thing on the Black Lives Matter movement is that

1144
01:02:54,200 --> 01:03:01,440
Speaker 1: is about time. It's um is overdue and this country

1145
01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:04,440
Speaker 1: still doesn't get it. And I'm not talking to and

1146
01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:06,960
Speaker 1: I did. I did an interview and I was telling

1147
01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:11,440
Speaker 1: them that it's needed. Sometimes you gotta burn it down sometimes,

1148
01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:14,760
Speaker 1: but don't burn your home down, you know, But sometimes

1149
01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:19,000
Speaker 1: because we have though that's the last time, like during

1150
01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:21,840
Speaker 1: the Rodney K. King was right at home. It was

1151
01:03:21,960 --> 01:03:24,360
Speaker 1: right in the mix of everything. You know. Now it's

1152
01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:25,920
Speaker 1: it's a little different, you know what I mean. It's

1153
01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:28,040
Speaker 1: a little different. It's a little different only in the

1154
01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:31,120
Speaker 1: fact that, uh, and we want to be realistic. It's

1155
01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:33,840
Speaker 1: different only because we have a virus that's keeping everybody

1156
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:37,160
Speaker 1: at home and TVs on. If we did not have

1157
01:03:37,280 --> 01:03:39,680
Speaker 1: this virus, it would be going over people's heads. But

1158
01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:43,480
Speaker 1: because it's happening in this time and we have the

1159
01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:54,160
Speaker 1: greatest president in the world. Donald Trump, this dumb motherfucker's. Hey, look,

1160
01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:56,880
Speaker 1: let me tell you, let me tell you why. Let

1161
01:03:56,960 --> 01:03:59,040
Speaker 1: me tell you why Donald Trump is great for us.

1162
01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:03,040
Speaker 1: Tell you why it's great for us because he exactly

1163
01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:08,800
Speaker 1: because before Donald Trump, there was never black gang members,

1164
01:04:09,160 --> 01:04:14,720
Speaker 1: Hispanic game members, all concerned about politics. We have never

1165
01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:18,000
Speaker 1: been this never he is. This guy is the best

1166
01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:21,640
Speaker 1: thing that is that could have happened to African Americans.

1167
01:04:21,960 --> 01:04:27,760
Speaker 1: And look, not only are we becoming conscious of of

1168
01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:30,960
Speaker 1: of political of the president politicy, we come to conscious

1169
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:35,320
Speaker 1: of inner city politics. We needed Donald Trump at this

1170
01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:41,640
Speaker 1: time because Obama put us to sleep. Obama willed us

1171
01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:46,240
Speaker 1: to sleep, and that it was like the voice was there.

1172
01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:48,520
Speaker 1: He finally got that voice. So it's like had somebody

1173
01:04:48,560 --> 01:04:52,840
Speaker 1: to vote in. It was a false sense of reality

1174
01:04:53,240 --> 01:04:55,160
Speaker 1: that we needed Trump to come back and say no,

1175
01:04:55,440 --> 01:05:02,560
Speaker 1: motherfucker's And that's why I'm saying for us, for for

1176
01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:05,800
Speaker 1: for for for men from the inner city of of

1177
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:10,240
Speaker 1: these these different populicies. We needed him. We need him

1178
01:05:10,280 --> 01:05:12,040
Speaker 1: to scare the shut up and say, look, grow the

1179
01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:16,240
Speaker 1: funk up, grow up, right, that's real spunts out there

1180
01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:18,480
Speaker 1: acting like are running their mouths and saying something what

1181
01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:21,280
Speaker 1: this motherfucker. Well, then guess what you need to do

1182
01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:23,880
Speaker 1: in November, and guess what you need to do before November,

1183
01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:26,080
Speaker 1: because by the time it gets November, it might be

1184
01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:29,439
Speaker 1: too fucking Especially if you want cannabis in your city

1185
01:05:29,720 --> 01:05:31,960
Speaker 1: and you want that, you gotta be voting at early.

1186
01:05:32,280 --> 01:05:34,400
Speaker 1: You know, Jews a lot, all these times you gotta

1187
01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:36,760
Speaker 1: be vote for your mayors. You're all these other fucking

1188
01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:40,040
Speaker 1: things that you guys, focus and wake up. I agree

1189
01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:42,880
Speaker 1: one thousand percent. But and and that's the thing too,

1190
01:05:42,960 --> 01:05:47,040
Speaker 1: that we we we forget that the most touching part

1191
01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:50,280
Speaker 1: of us in our community is your mayors, your city councils,

1192
01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:53,960
Speaker 1: your um your governors. Those are the people who affect

1193
01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:58,960
Speaker 1: you because they affect your actual finances. Right, That's that's

1194
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:02,840
Speaker 1: what people were missing. It's really not the president because

1195
01:06:02,840 --> 01:06:05,840
Speaker 1: he deal with the federal money. Is the mayor is

1196
01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:08,760
Speaker 1: to actually start with your governor, who are you electing

1197
01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:11,480
Speaker 1: to be your governor? And then it goes down from

1198
01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:13,200
Speaker 1: here because the governor could really say, funk what the

1199
01:06:13,240 --> 01:06:18,720
Speaker 1: president is saying, and even city telling your local city

1200
01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:22,240
Speaker 1: mayor as well, look what look into what your city mayors.

1201
01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:24,960
Speaker 1: It's been cleared through this process because some of them

1202
01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:27,240
Speaker 1: were like, f you, this is what we're doing. And

1203
01:06:27,560 --> 01:06:30,440
Speaker 1: it's starting to happen more often than not because you know,

1204
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:32,520
Speaker 1: you're like, can you do that? Can our state do that?

1205
01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:35,360
Speaker 1: You know, you're starting to question all questions. We got Hitler,

1206
01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:40,440
Speaker 1: and we got Hitler in the noted States. Friends. I

1207
01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:46,120
Speaker 1: don't like that. I don't Trump is Look the dude

1208
01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:53,000
Speaker 1: just over here like changed Washerman's nervous, a Wasserman snub.

1209
01:06:53,520 --> 01:06:56,320
Speaker 1: But he coming for us though, so we see, and

1210
01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:59,280
Speaker 1: he's really coming for the Brown brothers. Hey, look, let

1211
01:06:59,360 --> 01:07:01,480
Speaker 1: I tell people of time that motherfucker's ate off here,

1212
01:07:01,720 --> 01:07:04,840
Speaker 1: to the to the to the minority community. You know,

1213
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:06,760
Speaker 1: you know, he don't like anybody. We just we just

1214
01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:09,520
Speaker 1: had it. We just did yesterday. We did. Uh. There

1215
01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:11,440
Speaker 1: was a survey that came out on on l A

1216
01:07:11,520 --> 01:07:14,000
Speaker 1: Times or something or our California News or something, and

1217
01:07:14,640 --> 01:07:16,040
Speaker 1: his brother had it. So I don't have the paper

1218
01:07:16,080 --> 01:07:19,240
Speaker 1: in front of me. Forty two percent higher rate of

1219
01:07:19,600 --> 01:07:22,840
Speaker 1: Hispanic Americans are arrested for for drugs. It's the highest,

1220
01:07:22,880 --> 01:07:25,680
Speaker 1: for kind of highest in the world. In California. It

1221
01:07:25,760 --> 01:07:30,240
Speaker 1: was then the United States, forty two percent more than

1222
01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:32,880
Speaker 1: any other race Hispanics are, well, I think it was,

1223
01:07:34,080 --> 01:07:38,400
Speaker 1: which is not percent more its African Americans were like

1224
01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:42,120
Speaker 1: thirty two percent White American one percent, but it was

1225
01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:46,480
Speaker 1: still more, and I believe it was pretty accurate. Yes,

1226
01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:48,560
Speaker 1: so it was like forty thirty and then and then

1227
01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:50,400
Speaker 1: so on. So but but that was shocking to me,

1228
01:07:50,800 --> 01:07:52,280
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like I already know that,

1229
01:07:52,480 --> 01:07:55,800
Speaker 1: but there's a lot in my opinion, get it, well,

1230
01:07:56,200 --> 01:08:01,680
Speaker 1: Lain black Kid has been villa. I was gonna say,

1231
01:08:01,760 --> 01:08:05,160
Speaker 1: but the percentage of how many blacks there are versus

1232
01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:13,040
Speaker 1: whites and expanding, so the percentage of because there's there's

1233
01:08:13,080 --> 01:08:15,800
Speaker 1: way more white. So it's gonna that the numbers aren't

1234
01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:18,760
Speaker 1: real saying that, but this still shows that there's big numbers.

1235
01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:20,680
Speaker 1: I mean, with those numbers that can equal out and

1236
01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:26,439
Speaker 1: it might even over over Trumpet, Like that's because you

1237
01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:28,559
Speaker 1: said that to me, don't you don't you know, but don't.

1238
01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:32,200
Speaker 1: But you guys don't realize it's it's a bigger push

1239
01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:34,080
Speaker 1: coming though. I don't think people. I don't think people

1240
01:08:34,160 --> 01:08:37,400
Speaker 1: realize it's a bigger push coming because what Trump is

1241
01:08:37,479 --> 01:08:42,240
Speaker 1: trying to do is so major because he's demilitized, he's

1242
01:08:42,280 --> 01:08:47,040
Speaker 1: demilitarizing the United States around the globe and pulling back

1243
01:08:47,160 --> 01:08:51,600
Speaker 1: the United States forces around the globe. So people don't here, no, no, no, no,

1244
01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:57,240
Speaker 1: he's demilitizing, So he's lessening the power of the United

1245
01:08:57,280 --> 01:09:03,240
Speaker 1: States troops. Wow, China in Russia are pushing their strengthening there.

1246
01:09:03,800 --> 01:09:07,160
Speaker 1: And then this man is talking about who has had

1247
01:09:07,280 --> 01:09:10,600
Speaker 1: collusion talks with the Russians in the Chinese saying that

1248
01:09:11,120 --> 01:09:15,800
Speaker 1: if he loses, he's not leaving office, but everything they

1249
01:09:15,880 --> 01:09:19,479
Speaker 1: have done up to now it's questionable. And dealing with

1250
01:09:19,600 --> 01:09:22,360
Speaker 1: these questions about dealing with these people. So there's a

1251
01:09:22,479 --> 01:09:25,920
Speaker 1: bigger discussion to be had if you just study the

1252
01:09:26,040 --> 01:09:32,880
Speaker 1: pattern of what Trump is doing or attempting to do well, well,

1253
01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:35,320
Speaker 1: he has a lot of people behind him that's moving.

1254
01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:38,519
Speaker 1: So you have to be conscious of what's going on.

1255
01:09:39,240 --> 01:09:40,720
Speaker 1: And if we talk about tell people all the time,

1256
01:09:40,720 --> 01:09:42,200
Speaker 1: I you're talking about you want to change, what does

1257
01:09:42,320 --> 01:09:45,519
Speaker 1: change look like? Change looks like some people are not

1258
01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:47,560
Speaker 1: going to be rich no more, Some people are not

1259
01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:49,880
Speaker 1: gonna be middle class anymore. Some people are gonna come

1260
01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:52,720
Speaker 1: down to where we are struggling. Every day. Most of

1261
01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:55,920
Speaker 1: us are a car accident away from the poorhouse, you

1262
01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:58,640
Speaker 1: know what I mean, And and and and in this,

1263
01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:02,080
Speaker 1: in this, in this forest for us not to recognize

1264
01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:04,680
Speaker 1: what's going on in the federal government because you got

1265
01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:09,439
Speaker 1: you have local government, do you have federal government? Right

1266
01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:13,200
Speaker 1: that controls your own forces. That's what Donald Trump has

1267
01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:15,479
Speaker 1: the ability to send people in and he could say

1268
01:10:15,600 --> 01:10:18,800
Speaker 1: this is this, this is not so it's a bigger picture.

1269
01:10:18,840 --> 01:10:20,800
Speaker 1: I don't know where it's going, but it's just stuff

1270
01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:25,000
Speaker 1: that the next and the funny thing is we've always

1271
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:26,880
Speaker 1: said it is that you know, I've always said it.

1272
01:10:26,920 --> 01:10:28,760
Speaker 1: You could take all of us, and and not all

1273
01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:30,240
Speaker 1: of us, but you can take some of some of

1274
01:10:30,280 --> 01:10:32,080
Speaker 1: the people that we know and the people we run with,

1275
01:10:32,280 --> 01:10:34,400
Speaker 1: and you could drop all the bonds you want and

1276
01:10:34,600 --> 01:10:36,560
Speaker 1: and drip all the things out and we're gonna be

1277
01:10:36,680 --> 01:10:39,439
Speaker 1: just fine. We're gonna thrive. Which is but there's a

1278
01:10:39,520 --> 01:10:41,479
Speaker 1: lot of folks that it is not that that aren't

1279
01:10:41,479 --> 01:10:43,280
Speaker 1: that are gonna come down to this level and they're

1280
01:10:43,320 --> 01:10:45,920
Speaker 1: just gonna be like, whoa that you're gonna start working

1281
01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:50,160
Speaker 1: for a whole new civilization that you can't beings and

1282
01:10:50,280 --> 01:10:54,560
Speaker 1: just grind and haven't that stuff you haven't had to

1283
01:10:54,560 --> 01:10:56,519
Speaker 1: been through that and I would hate to see our

1284
01:10:56,600 --> 01:10:58,680
Speaker 1: country have to go through that again. But there's a

1285
01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:00,559
Speaker 1: small part of me that wants to believe that they're

1286
01:11:00,560 --> 01:11:02,760
Speaker 1: trying to start it all over again. They're trying to

1287
01:11:02,840 --> 01:11:05,479
Speaker 1: start it all over again. You know, you better believe that.

1288
01:11:05,640 --> 01:11:08,200
Speaker 1: That's exactly We're gonna lose homes and people are gonna

1289
01:11:08,200 --> 01:11:15,519
Speaker 1: lose the man is saying it. Yeah, say gonna have drugs,

1290
01:11:15,520 --> 01:11:17,960
Speaker 1: are gonna have an all time high again, you know,

1291
01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:22,160
Speaker 1: trying prostitution. Everything's gonna re evolve and and so there's

1292
01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:24,200
Speaker 1: gonna be a route awakening for a lot of people,

1293
01:11:24,360 --> 01:11:25,880
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. They didn't grow like the

1294
01:11:25,960 --> 01:11:30,560
Speaker 1: prostitution party. It should all be illegal. And you know,

1295
01:11:30,680 --> 01:11:34,320
Speaker 1: I actually I think there's a connection Pop Brothers at

1296
01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:36,920
Speaker 1: Law and Big You. Yeah, if I get this right.

01:11:37,080 --> 01:11:41,719
