Speaker 1: Harvey man oh man, got a radio show. Yeah, trying

13
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 1: to make it work too. I'm not trying. I'm I'm I'm,

14
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 1: I'm I'm getting it. I'm getting it done to the

15
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: best of my abilities. Now. Something funny my father taught me.

16
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 1: He says, son, when you've done all you can do,

17
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 1: if you've done your absolute best and you look up

18
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 1: and it didn't get the job done, take a deep

19
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: breath and do some more. That used to bug me, man,

20
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,399
Speaker 1: when my father used to tell me, that's the son,

21
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,079
Speaker 1: when you've done your absolute best, and you think you k'

22
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,959
Speaker 1: do no more. You've done all you can and it

23
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 1: still don't get the job done. Take yourself a deep

24
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 1: breath and do some more. And you know what I

25
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: found that has worked every single time, every single time,

26
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: because what my father knew was that what you think

27
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 1: is your breaking point, or what you think is you're

28
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: all at all? He says, son, it's just something about it. Man.

29
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 1: If you just gather yourself, you got a little bit more.

30
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: Everybody got some more. And you know, I gotta be

31
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 1: honest with you. It has worked. It has helped me greatly.

32
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 1: And um, you know if everybody does have some more.

33
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: You know, I tell that to my sons all the time,

34
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: that I did my best well to manage to something else.

35
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: Could you have done anything else? Could you have studied

36
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 1: a little harder, Could you have shown up a little

37
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 1: bit earlier, could you stayed a little bit later? Yeah,

38
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: well then okay that's what you should have done. Then. See,

39
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: that's always a way. But if you're going to create excuses,

40
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: if you're gonna make them up all the time about

41
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: why you don't get it done, I have a very

42
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 1: very sad uh statement for you right now, you're never

43
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: gonna get anything done. You're never gonna get to the top,

44
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:27,159
Speaker 1: not to the top. You can get halfway up now,

45
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 1: you can get a third of the way up, you

46
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: can get three quarters of the way up. But if

47
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 1: you don't have that little extra reserve in you, you're

48
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: not getting to the top. The top is only reserved

49
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 1: for those that have the wherewithal and the power to desire,

50
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 1: the drive and the gut reaching effort to get to

51
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: the top. The top is reserved only for the top.

52
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: It's just the top to ain't but one top then

53
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 1: the middle done it ain't it? You know, the top,

54
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: the top, out of the mountain, have where it's a

55
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,559
Speaker 1: different view. At the top, things look different from up top.

56
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: So if you want to get to the top of

57
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: whatever your profession, your field, your career, whatever it is,

58
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: you got to do extra. You have to do more.

59
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: More is expected of you. More. But here's what's really crazy.

60
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: More is required of you. Don't live your life in

61
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 1: the lacks of daisical state. Don't wake up every day

62
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 1: with the feeling of, well, you know, whatever happens happens now, man,

63
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: have us say so in your life. You first of all,

64
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: let me ask you something, Who has God named the

65
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: person that? How that God has given authority over you

66
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: named the person? Where is it in scripture? Where anywhere where?

67
00:05:55,480 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 1: Show me anywhere where it says this person has the

68
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: right over you, this person right here, this one right here.

69
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 1: You have to do everything they say and what they say.

70
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: Only show me that right there, Show me who they're

71
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 1: talking about. Certainly, certainly I have not met that person. Now.

72
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: My parents were great to me, and there was their

73
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 1: job to offer me lead, leadership and guidance along along

74
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: the way. But as I grew up, man, I had

75
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 1: to go out here and get it on my you know,

76
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: I had to go out here and get it on

77
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: my own. But who is the person? Nobody has domain

78
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 1: over you. God didn't create that person. So what you're

79
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: sitting here for? Man? What are you sitting here for?

80
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 1: Letting people who do not know direct your path? A

81
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 1: lot of us get stopped because we we worried so

82
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: much about what people think about us. We worried too

83
00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 1: much about what people say about us. Why are you

84
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: worried about all these people with what they got to

85
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: say about you, and all these people with what they

86
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 1: got to think about you? When here's the news flash.

87
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 1: They don't know either. All these people that you overly

88
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 1: concerned about, all these people that you going to these

89
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 1: answers for, they need answers too. Stop what are you

90
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: doing here? Gather yourself for a minute. Here is a

91
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: solution to all of that. You have one source that

92
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: will be there for you till the end of time,

93
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: and that is your relationship with God. That is the

94
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: one thing that's solid and for shure. He's behind the wall.

95
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: He's in your jail cell. He rides with you in

96
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: the police car. He's with you on your job up

97
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 1: at to school. He's down there in the board meetings

98
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: with you. He goes with you when you travel on planes.

99
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: He sits with you when you're in a relationship. He

100
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 1: helps you with your parents and skills. He helps you.

101
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: He's there to assist you. He shows if you do

102
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 1: the right things, he show you and guide you to

103
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: your next job. When you lose your job and you

104
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: think it's so wrap all, there's some good behind him. Man,

105
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: God is always working on your behalf. To those that

106
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: believe you, just gotta believe. He won't ask you for

107
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 1: nothing else. Believe in me. That's all He asked you

108
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: to do what you're tripping for. Man, and then when

109
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 1: you make the decision to believe in him, and it

110
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: comes out your mouth from time to time somewhere what

111
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: you're worried about, what people say, What you're worried about,

112
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 1: what they think? For? Why? Who are they? They need God?

113
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 1: To you? You? You? You're telling them you found something

114
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 1: new that you're gonna give this a shot right here. Now.

115
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 1: They got some yang ying yang and some yakety yact

116
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 1: to say about that when they need God too. That's

117
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: what amazes me, man about people sit up in here, man,

118
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,719
Speaker 1: be knocking your dream and stuff. Look, if you're an atheist, man,

119
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: do your thing, do your thing, But you can't create

120
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 1: no law? Is why I can't do mine? Don't make

121
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: no sense, man, That makes no sense at all to me.

122
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: You have the right to go be whatever you wanna be.

123
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 1: You know if you don't, you don't like the fact

124
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 1: that I'm in school. You got my head biled down

125
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: and I'm saying a prayer for I take this test.

126
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 1: Just don't buy your head, don't you pray? But if

127
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,240
Speaker 1: some kids want to get to go that that's some

128
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: crazy mess. That's what happened in our schools. We took

129
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 1: prayer out of schools. And now look at our schools,

130
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: our schools. Man, you you you, you you you. You

131
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 1: send your child at school and and and someone else

132
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 1: comes back home. That's a whole another thing right here.

133
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,080
Speaker 1: That that's not what I want to talk to you about.

134
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: But I was just throwing it out because you know, hey, man,

135
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 1: your relationship with God is essential to your success as

136
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 1: a person. It's essential to your existence. It's essential to

137
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 1: where you're trying to go and what you're trying to be.

138
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: Because He made you. Why would you not talk to

139
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 1: the person and that made you to find out what

140
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: he created you for. I ain't talking about your parents,

141
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,679
Speaker 1: who made your parents? This is God, we created in

142
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: his image. Why would you not talk to your maker

143
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 1: to see why you got made? That? That don't that

144
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 1: don't make sense to you. If you're sitting and gotten

145
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 1: yourself in a situation, you're sitting in the jail cell somewhere,

146
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 1: you locked up, you're doing some time, man, be a

147
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 1: good time for you to reflect. But whatever your situation is, man,

148
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 1: God can get you through it. He can give you

149
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:38,079
Speaker 1: the strength the courage to wherewithal the understanding everything you need,

150
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 1: the wisdom to get you through anything you're going through.

151
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: You just got a touch base with him. I need

152
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: God every single day of my life. And what he's

153

Speaker 1: They they held up a high bar for us as

606
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 1: as as as people. Um, and you know, we always

607
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 1: sell an obligation to live up to that. I mean

608
00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 1: to see my father, who was disabled from the time

609
00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:10,919
Speaker 1: I could remember him, you know, and seeing him getting

610
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,480
Speaker 1: up and going to work every day without complaint. I've

611
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:17,759
Speaker 1: talked about this throughout my my time and politics. You know,

612
00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 1: it's hard to be half baked when you are raised

613
00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 1: in the house by a man like that you know. Um.

614
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 1: And every day, Steve, I live to make my family proud,

615
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 1: in my community proud. Um. But there's nothing new, you

616
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,680
Speaker 1: know this. You know, there are communities like the one

617
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 1: I grew up in all over this nation. Um. It's

618
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 1: just important for us to tell our stories because I

619
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:48,319
Speaker 1: think people think we don't exist. You know, they've got

620
00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 1: what one image of what it means to be black. Um.

621
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 1: They don't know that we are so complex, and we

622
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 1: are so faithful, and that we are so uh linked

623
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:01,480
Speaker 1: to our family um uh you know. And and that's

624
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:05,040
Speaker 1: why I'm proud to tell my story, because I want

625
00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:07,560
Speaker 1: people to know all of who I am so that

626
00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:11,840
Speaker 1: they're not mistaken at all. And this book, you know,

627
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:15,000
Speaker 1: I try to make it a story so that it's

628
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:18,160
Speaker 1: not just a chronology of things. But it's a story

629
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,400
Speaker 1: of this little girl, Michelle Robinson, who grew up on

630
00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:23,680
Speaker 1: the South Side with a big brother, and she got

631
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:26,960
Speaker 1: into some fights, and she had some some challenges, and

632
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,520
Speaker 1: she went to public school and she got hit in

633
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 1: the mouth by a bully and you know, she you know,

634
00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 1: and and it's a it's a set of stories that

635
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,680
Speaker 1: I hope take people along the journey because I get

636
00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:39,600
Speaker 1: that question all the time. It's like, how did a

637
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 1: girl from the South side of Chicago wind up this

638
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:46,239
Speaker 1: first Lady of the United States? And this is the

639
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:48,799
Speaker 1: answer to that, at least as that I can see

640
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 1: it coming up more with the former first Lady, Michelle

641
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:57,400
Speaker 1: Obama right after this, you're listening to coming up at

642
00:44:57,440 --> 00:44:59,919
Speaker 1: the top of the hour, right about four minutes after,

643
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,880
Speaker 1: it's Today's Strawberry Letter, the subject my wife and kids.

644
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 1: All right, see, you can continue your conversation with Michelle Obama.

645
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,200
Speaker 1: You know what you said something a minute ago, you

646
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:15,440
Speaker 1: said that your parents raised you and they set the

647
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:19,160
Speaker 1: bar high. Is that has to be a part of

648
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:23,320
Speaker 1: your what has now become your famous slogan that says

649
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 1: when they go low, we go high. That's got to

650
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:30,000
Speaker 1: be behind that. Well, you know it is, you know,

651
00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:33,279
Speaker 1: you know, because it's not just the house we live

652
00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:37,279
Speaker 1: in the community. We lived with values. You know, my

653
00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:41,160
Speaker 1: parents lived out the values that they believed in your words,

654
00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:44,200
Speaker 1: your bond. You know, you know they kept their word

655
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,239
Speaker 1: when they promised thats something, they made it happen. If

656
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:49,600
Speaker 1: they couldn't do it, they put it out on the table.

657
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 1: You know. My father was the kind of father. You know.

658
00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:55,840
Speaker 1: My brother asked him where we rich one day, and

659
00:45:56,440 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 1: he went and took he got his paycheck, cast it all,

660
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:04,000
Speaker 1: got it all in once, brought it down on the

661
00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:07,360
Speaker 1: kitchen table and laid out all the bills that he

662
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 1: had to pay, and he put money down on each

663
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:14,000
Speaker 1: bill to cover it. Uh. And then he showed my

664
00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:18,080
Speaker 1: brother what was left after all the bills were paid.

665
00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:21,000
Speaker 1: And then he said, now you tell me, do you

666
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:25,040
Speaker 1: think we're rich? Um. That's the kind of teacher my

667
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,400
Speaker 1: father was. You know, he wasn't in your face. He

668
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 1: loved us deeply. And the other thing for me, Steve,

669
00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 1: And I know, I don't want I want the men

670
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: to hear this for me having a father and a brother,

671
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 1: men in my life who adored me, you know, and

672
00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:45,360
Speaker 1: respected me. Um. When I when my brother learned to box,

673
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,440
Speaker 1: I learned to box. When my brother learned to throw

674
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:50,840
Speaker 1: a ball, I learned to throw a ball. I was

675
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:55,200
Speaker 1: not a second class citizen among the men in my household.

676
00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:59,600
Speaker 1: I was an equal. My voice meant something to my father. Um.

677
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 1: And and it's important for men out there to understand, Steve.

678
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:07,800
Speaker 1: You know this as a father to daughters, you know,

679
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 1: having a a strong man who loves you deeply, and

680
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,360
Speaker 1: a brother who loves you deeply, who would do anything

681
00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:20,400
Speaker 1: for you. That that just that that I think that

682
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:24,320
Speaker 1: armed me and equip me and made me ready for anything.

683
00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 1: You know. You know that does give you something special,

684
00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 1: doesn't it, Because it's and what you're saying is really important,

685
00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:35,480
Speaker 1: because its important for men to understand that even if

686
00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:40,600
Speaker 1: your relationship with your child's mother is strained, the importance

687
00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:44,560
Speaker 1: of you remaining active and available in that child's life

688
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:49,600
Speaker 1: is absolutely priceless. And it is particularly priceless for the girl.

689
00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,320
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that it doesn't matter for sons,

690
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:56,719
Speaker 1: but um me having strong men in my life, you know,

691
00:47:57,560 --> 00:47:59,839
Speaker 1: role models. And you know I was fortunate I had.

692
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:03,200
Speaker 1: I had men all around me. My both my grandparents,

693
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 1: my my grandparents, my grandfather's were alive. I grew up

694
00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:11,160
Speaker 1: with them, you know, my uncle's. I had tons of uncles,

695
00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:14,200
Speaker 1: tons of male cousins. My best of our best cousins

696
00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:17,600
Speaker 1: with two boys and we would box and roll around

697
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:19,960
Speaker 1: and you know, I was right up in there with them.

698
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:22,719
Speaker 1: And I think that gave me a level of confidence,

699
00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:24,800
Speaker 1: you know, when I had to go out in the

700
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:29,200
Speaker 1: world and tackle things that you know, I knew I

701
00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:33,680
Speaker 1: I could, I could hold my own um, and sometimes

702
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:37,600
Speaker 1: we underestimate that. And I think it's important for you know,

703
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:40,719
Speaker 1: parents out there, especially when you're wondering how do you

704
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:43,560
Speaker 1: raig strong girls? They need to have strong men in

705
00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:46,279
Speaker 1: their lives. I love them and take care of them

706
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:48,839
Speaker 1: and nurture them. You know. I think about the number

707
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:51,879
Speaker 1: of girls who grow up and suffer from abuse, whether

708
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:55,440
Speaker 1: it's physical or emotional. They'd suffer at the hands, you know,

709
00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:58,759
Speaker 1: and that and that causes a ding in in the

710
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:03,520
Speaker 1: psyche of a woman. Uh, that can really mess us up. Um,

711
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:08,400
Speaker 1: So they've got to be protected, uh growing up. And

712
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:11,479
Speaker 1: I had that. Yeah, let me ask you one other question,

713
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,960
Speaker 1: because I know you're busy. I know you're pushing everything.

714
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,960
Speaker 1: How did you come up with the title becoming? You know,

715
00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:21,880
Speaker 1: it just it just appeared, you know. We you know,

716
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:25,880
Speaker 1: I was sitting down with my my, uh, the team

717
00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:30,440
Speaker 1: of folks that I would bounce stuff off us, and

718
00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:31,960
Speaker 1: we were like, we got to come up with a

719
00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:34,239
Speaker 1: title for this book. You know, we played around. I

720
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,600
Speaker 1: thought I was starting to do it like a blooper

721
00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:39,759
Speaker 1: reel of titles, but I can't. We never wrote them down. Um.

722
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:44,000
Speaker 1: And one of the folks said, what about the coming?

723
00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:47,560
Speaker 1: And immediately I just like, that's it, because that's what

724
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:54,239
Speaker 1: the story is. It's you know, it becoming is it's

725
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:59,320
Speaker 1: it's constantly evolving. You know. That's what my you know

726
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:02,680
Speaker 1: what I'm trying to sort of explain in the title

727
00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:05,640
Speaker 1: that we we never reach a place where we just

728
00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:08,359
Speaker 1: are and that's it, you know. I start the book

729
00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:10,600
Speaker 1: off where, you know, when I'm little, I say one

730
00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:12,400
Speaker 1: of the questions I hate the most is what are

731
00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:14,120
Speaker 1: you going to be when you grow up? You know,

732
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:17,360
Speaker 1: it's the dumbest question you can have. Ask a kid this.

733
00:50:17,719 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 1: You grow up and become something and that's the end,

734
00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:24,719
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's it's not finite. Life is a continuum,

735
00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:27,800
Speaker 1: you know. And I find that I'm evolving now. I

736
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:30,560
Speaker 1: haven't become all that I'm going to be. I've got

737
00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:34,360
Speaker 1: a whole another chapter or two left. Um And and

738
00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 1: how sad would it be if there wasn't more left? Um?

739
00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:42,879
Speaker 1: So we are all in the process of becoming. Um.

740
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:45,920
Speaker 1: So that's that's where it can It just all seemed

741
00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:48,800
Speaker 1: to fall into place now. I think that's absolutely it.

742
00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:52,880
Speaker 1: I feel the same way, I've watched this video of

743
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 1: you about this upcoming book. I watched this ten minute video.

744
00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:59,680
Speaker 1: I was so moved by it. I think Becoming is

745
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:02,359
Speaker 1: the perfect name for the book. I think it's gonna

746
00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:06,239
Speaker 1: inspire so many people. And what what I want people

747
00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:08,759
Speaker 1: to know is that this book is available to date.

748
00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:14,040
Speaker 1: Uh it's in both print at every bookstore that sells books,

749
00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:18,880
Speaker 1: and it's in digital formats, so Kendall, Amazon, however you

750
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:21,719

00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:27,960
Speaker 1: You can go get it. And it's oh, I tried that,

752

758
00:51:55,239 --> 00:52:00,320
Speaker 1: not in the English dictionary. You know what. Already I

759
00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:03,040

768
00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:32,799
Speaker 1: Well you don't. You don't have anything else to do, Steve,

Speaker 1: I need it because I found out something. I was

772
00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:50,680
Speaker 1: having a real allergic reactions and I didn't know it,

773
00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:54,320
Speaker 1: and I discovered it about I think it's maybe twenty

774
00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:59,080
Speaker 1: years ago. I'm actually allergic to poverty and it was

775
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:03,360
Speaker 1: causing so many problems. I said, I got to in this,

776
00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:09,319

Speaker 1: want to hear from us up. Hold on tight. Here

801
00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:39,280
Speaker 1: it is Strawberry letter, Thank you nephew, subject my wife

802
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:43,120
Speaker 1: and kids. Dear Steven Shirley, this is probably the hardest

803
00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:46,440
Speaker 1: decision I've ever had to make. I have two teenage

804
00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:51,200
Speaker 1: children and their mother and I separated uh ten years ago,

805
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:55,439
Speaker 1: but I have maintained a solid co parenting relationship. Five

806
00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:58,680
Speaker 1: years ago, I got remarried and my new wife seemed

807
00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:01,359
Speaker 1: to accept my children and played a decent role as

808
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:04,680
Speaker 1: a step mom. That didn't last long, and she eventually

809
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:09,520
Speaker 1: started treating them poorly. My teenagers became increasingly uncomfortable when

810
00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:12,680
Speaker 1: they came over for the weekend. Over time, things have

811
00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:16,360
Speaker 1: gotten worse, and my children started making excuses not to

812
00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:18,920
Speaker 1: come over. My mother in law has come to live

813
00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:22,560
Speaker 1: with us temporarily, and she has added fuel to the

814
00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:25,400
Speaker 1: fire by saying that my children are getting older and

815
00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:27,920
Speaker 1: don't need to come over as often as they used to,

816
00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:30,759
Speaker 1: and since my mother in law is there, my wife

817
00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:33,240
Speaker 1: says there's no room for the kids on the weekends.

818
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:35,480
Speaker 1: I've told my wife that her mother is not going

819
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:38,640
Speaker 1: to live with us permanently, but my children will forever

820
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,040
Speaker 1: be a part of our lives. My wife and my

821
00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:43,719
Speaker 1: mother in law are depriving me of quality time with

822
00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:47,040
Speaker 1: my children. I told her that our home will always

823
00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:49,840
Speaker 1: be open to my children, whether she likes it or not.

824
00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:53,279
Speaker 1: I'm tired of arguing about it, so I've decided it's

825
00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:56,400
Speaker 1: time for me to go because my sole responsibility in

826
00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:59,400
Speaker 1: life is to my children. No matter how much I

827
00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:03,120
Speaker 1: love my life, I would never put her before my children.

828
00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:05,880
Speaker 1: I have told her that I want a divorce because

829
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:08,759
Speaker 1: I will not live without my children. My wife does

830
00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:11,239
Speaker 1: not seem to care how this affects me, So I

831
00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:14,040
Speaker 1: need to know. Am I wrong for deciding to leave

832
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:17,600
Speaker 1: this woman? How would you handle this situation? Please help?

833
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:23,319
Speaker 1: Wow my wife and kids? Uh aptly titled, I would say,

834
00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:28,480
Speaker 1: but um, yeah, your wife is the issue here because

835
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:32,400
Speaker 1: she wants to separate you and your children. Now, as

836
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:34,719
Speaker 1: far as putting your kids first and all of that,

837
00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:38,120
Speaker 1: you know, if you want to get biblical, it says, um,

838
00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:40,840
Speaker 1: you know, leaving when you get married, leaving cleave. But

839
00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:44,640
Speaker 1: your kids were there before your wife, so you know

840
00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:49,520
Speaker 1: this is a problem because um, you're letting your wife dictate, um,

841
00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:52,640
Speaker 1: how you should what kind of relationship you should you

842
00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:56,120
Speaker 1: have with your kids? And uh, the kind of relationship

843
00:56:56,200 --> 00:56:59,440
Speaker 1: that you have with them? Is wrong because they're constantly

844
00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:03,200
Speaker 1: getting out of your life. I'm glad you took a stand.

845
00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:05,800
Speaker 1: I'm glad you stepped up and stood up to your wife.

846
00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:08,800
Speaker 1: And uh, you know, I don't necessarily know if divorce

847
00:57:09,040 --> 00:57:12,680
Speaker 1: is the way to go in this situation, but you

848
00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:18,000
Speaker 1: guys definitely definitely need to work on this marriage here.

849
00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:22,440
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I hate this because it's breaking

850
00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:25,160
Speaker 1: up a family, and not just one family, but two families,

851
00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:27,400
Speaker 1: and your mother in law is there and she's adding

852
00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:30,960
Speaker 1: fuel to the fire. You guys really need to to

853
00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:34,600
Speaker 1: talk about this situation. I don't know if you have already,

854
00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:37,760
Speaker 1: but you really need to talk because your your kids

855
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:40,480
Speaker 1: are the ones that are losing out of precious time,

856
00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 1: like you say, with their father, and they need that

857
00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:47,120
Speaker 1: no matter how old they are, you'll always be their father. Um.

858
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:50,360
Speaker 1: I think divorce is taking it too far right now

859
00:57:50,800 --> 00:57:54,880
Speaker 1: before you guys sit down and talk about it, though, Steve, Well,

860
00:57:56,000 --> 00:58:00,320
Speaker 1: I think they've had lots of talks. Mm hmm. The

861
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:03,600
Speaker 1: thing has gotten worse over time, things have gotten worse,

862
00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:07,320
Speaker 1: and your children started making excuses not to come over

863
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:11,440
Speaker 1: because kids get older, they get smarter. She mistreat us,

864
00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:14,920
Speaker 1: She don't want us over there, so they didn't started

865
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:18,520
Speaker 1: making excuses. Now my mother in law, your mother in

866
00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:21,160
Speaker 1: law has come to live with us temporarily, and she

867
00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:23,200
Speaker 1: didn't add a few to the fire by saying that

868
00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:25,960
Speaker 1: my children are getting older and don't need to come

869
00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:28,520
Speaker 1: over as often as they used to. Now, see your

870
00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:31,920
Speaker 1: asses the one that's too old, See the mother in law,

871
00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:34,240
Speaker 1: she's the one that got older and don't need to

872
00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:38,040
Speaker 1: be there. See, that's the one that that that's see

873
00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:40,560
Speaker 1: that that my mother in law has come to live

874
00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:43,200
Speaker 1: with us temper and she's added by saying that my

875
00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:46,000
Speaker 1: children are getting older and don't need to come over

876
00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:48,320
Speaker 1: as often as they used to. She the one don't

877
00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:51,439
Speaker 1: need to be over there. All the mother in law don't.

878
00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:57,560
Speaker 1: So I found that disturbing. Then your wife says there's

879
00:58:57,600 --> 00:59:01,000
Speaker 1: no room for the kids on the weekend because her

880
00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:04,880
Speaker 1: mama there. Wait, hold on, hold on, I can't see

881
00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:09,280
Speaker 1: my kids because your mama here. Your wife and mother

882
00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:14,280
Speaker 1: in law depriving your quality time with your children. And

883
00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:16,440
Speaker 1: then you told her that your home always got to

884
00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:19,480
Speaker 1: be open to the kids. See, I'm with this guy

885
00:59:19,680 --> 00:59:22,440
Speaker 1: right here. I'm tired of arguing about it. So I've

886
00:59:22,520 --> 00:59:25,160
Speaker 1: decided it's time for me to go see Sherley. I

887
00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:29,000
Speaker 1: think they've discussed this many times, and the discussions to

888
00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:31,920
Speaker 1: turn into argument. Why I don't want him over here?

889
00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:34,720
Speaker 1: The man want to see his kids, she don't want

890
00:59:34,760 --> 00:59:38,960
Speaker 1: him over here. Now, what type of woman listen to

891
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:41,960
Speaker 1: what I'm about to say to your care What type

892
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:46,000
Speaker 1: of woman stop some man from being with his kids?

893
00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:49,120
Speaker 1: You want me tell you what type evil? A lot

894
00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:55,360
Speaker 1: of There are a lot, Sully. You would be stunned

895
00:59:56,720 --> 01:00:00,400
Speaker 1: how many women out there are making it hard for

896
01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:04,840
Speaker 1: a man to have relationship with his children because she

897
01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:08,080
Speaker 1: feels as she don't want to be the attachment to

898
01:00:08,200 --> 01:00:10,960
Speaker 1: the ex wife or the woman. She don't want them

899
01:00:11,080 --> 01:00:14,320
Speaker 1: kids in here interfering what they got going. Maybe she

900
01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:17,200
Speaker 1: don't want them around their kids. It is a lot

901
01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:21,960
Speaker 1: of women who do this, and it is sad because man,

902
01:00:22,040 --> 01:00:24,360
Speaker 1: when a man wants to take care of his children,

903
01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:28,840
Speaker 1: there's nothing worse than you being his wife stopping him

904
01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:33,400
Speaker 1: from doing that. Not even your mammy that came over

905
01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:42,200
Speaker 1: there talking about some damn mom in law exactly who

906
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:46,120
Speaker 1: I'm talking about, laying up in here eating crackling and

907
01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:50,840
Speaker 1: corn bread and some damn buttermilk, talking about. It's just two.

908
01:00:51,000 --> 01:00:53,640
Speaker 1: There's no room for these kids. They too old to

909
01:00:53,720 --> 01:00:55,400
Speaker 1: come over here. They don't need to come over, and

910
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:58,040
Speaker 1: often they used to. They're getting older. Your ask the

911
01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:01,800
Speaker 1: one that's old. But what chill? I'm just saying, how

912
01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:04,240
Speaker 1: old you know? You never get too old to go

913
01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:07,400
Speaker 1: see your parents? What is that? However old they are,

914
01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:10,720
Speaker 1: what difference do you meant? Now? They can't come over

915
01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:13,480
Speaker 1: no more? Put the mom in law over there now.

916
01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:16,360
Speaker 1: The man said he didn't talked about her. He tired

917
01:01:16,640 --> 01:01:19,480
Speaker 1: arguing about it. He figures time for him to go.

918
01:01:20,320 --> 01:01:24,200
Speaker 1: It's a divorce. Now, he says, something that you touched

919
01:01:24,240 --> 01:01:27,400
Speaker 1: on it will get into I would never put her

920
01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:31,240
Speaker 1: in front of my kids. All right, Steve, let's get

921
01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:34,200
Speaker 1: a problem. Let's take a break here. We'll be back

922
01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:36,400
Speaker 1: at twenty three after the hour with part two of

923
01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:40,440
Speaker 1: your response to my wife and kids. Right after this

924
01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:48,040
Speaker 1: you're listening to show, Steve, let's recap today's letter. My dude, Uh,

925
01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:52,320
Speaker 1: wife don't want the kids over their no mo and

926
01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:56,880
Speaker 1: then mom and Laude moved in. Okay, here we go.

927
01:01:58,280 --> 01:02:00,880
Speaker 1: Now this man can't have relationship it with his kids

928
01:02:02,080 --> 01:02:07,760
Speaker 1: because of his mother in law. Irma over there. Her

929
01:02:07,840 --> 01:02:12,600
Speaker 1: name is Irma, That's what the name I picked. I

930
01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:14,680
Speaker 1: told my wife that her mama not gonna be living

931
01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:17,200
Speaker 1: with us permanently or my children would ever be in

932
01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:21,960
Speaker 1: our lives forever. My wife and mother in law depriving

933
01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:25,400
Speaker 1: me of quality time with my children. And I told

934
01:02:25,440 --> 01:02:27,600
Speaker 1: our home will always be over to my children, whether

935
01:02:27,720 --> 01:02:30,080
Speaker 1: she likes it or not. And I'm tired of arguing

936
01:02:30,080 --> 01:02:32,920
Speaker 1: about it. So I didn't decide it it's time for

937
01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:37,840
Speaker 1: me to go because my sole responsibility and life is

938
01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:41,680
Speaker 1: to my children. No matter how much I love my wife,

939
01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:46,720
Speaker 1: we really got more responsibilities than our children. The sad

940
01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:50,720
Speaker 1: part is your mother in law and wife don't want

941
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:53,600
Speaker 1: you to have relationship with your kids. And that's so sad.

942
01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:57,560
Speaker 1: That is so sad, and I would never put her

943
01:02:57,640 --> 01:03:02,520
Speaker 1: before my children. Well, because she's making you choose, and

944
01:03:02,600 --> 01:03:04,640
Speaker 1: I've told her I want a divorce because I will

945
01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:07,960
Speaker 1: not live without my children. And now your wife don't

946
01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:11,840
Speaker 1: seem to care how this affects me. Well, she loved

947
01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:13,920
Speaker 1: her mama. Let her live with her mama, her mamma. There,

948
01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:20,560
Speaker 1: live with your mama. You got who you want, So

949
01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:22,560
Speaker 1: I need to know. Am I wrong for deciding to

950
01:03:22,680 --> 01:03:29,640
Speaker 1: lead this woman, I buy you need no counseling. You're

951
01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:34,400
Speaker 1: married to her eva half far and her mama evil

952
01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:37,600
Speaker 1: and she got it from my mama cause her mama

953
01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:39,400
Speaker 1: ain't even girl. You need to let this man have

954
01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:42,040
Speaker 1: the life of these kids now, she hadn't fuel to

955
01:03:42,120 --> 01:03:45,800
Speaker 1: the fire. Leave both for me. Man, Go on where

956
01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:49,640
Speaker 1: you're going, because you ain't gonna be happy, man feeling

957
01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:51,640
Speaker 1: like you don't. You don't, you don't left your kids.

958
01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:55,960
Speaker 1: It's a dog on shame, man. But I promise you

959
01:03:56,080 --> 01:03:58,000
Speaker 1: you'll be able to find a woman to be accepting

960
01:03:58,040 --> 01:04:01,120
Speaker 1: that you ain't them kids. But he's gonna be a

961
01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:03,520
Speaker 1: little hesitant, don't you think now, Steve, because she was

962
01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:08,840
Speaker 1: with it at first and then she changed. I've been

Speaker 1: be back right after this. You're listening to Steve Harvey

1028
01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:59,799
Speaker 1: Morning Show. A day after footage emerged of US Senator

1029
01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:04,240
Speaker 1: Cindy Hyde Smith, a Republican out of Mississippi, making laughing

1030
01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:08,320
Speaker 1: comments about going to a public hanging. Her African American

1031
01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:13,280
Speaker 1: Democratic opponent, Mike sp responded on Monday, calling the statement

1032
01:09:13,400 --> 01:09:17,320
Speaker 1: awful and tone death all right. Uh. In a video

1033
01:09:17,520 --> 01:09:21,640
Speaker 1: of a two below Mississippi campaign stop released on Sunday, UH,

1034
01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:25,400
Speaker 1: Cindy Hyde Smith said she'd attend even a public hanging

1035
01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:28,360
Speaker 1: if invited by the cattle rancher with whom she met

1036
01:09:28,479 --> 01:09:30,960
Speaker 1: that day. She said, I'd be on the front row.

1037
01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:34,400
Speaker 1: She was laughing when she said that. The video quickly

1038
01:09:34,560 --> 01:09:38,040
Speaker 1: went viral. Uh. Cindy Hyde Smith faces a runoff election

1039
01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:43,720
Speaker 1: against Mike sp on sp on November. You know what,

1040
01:09:44,360 --> 01:09:50,439
Speaker 1: it's a dog on Shane that this country's is in

1041
01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:54,280
Speaker 1: in in this type of thing. It's it's it's like

1042
01:09:54,400 --> 01:09:59,200
Speaker 1: we're taking steps back, and we're taking steps back because

1043
01:09:59,360 --> 01:10:02,639
Speaker 1: of the red rick that's coming from the White House. See,

1044
01:10:03,120 --> 01:10:05,719
Speaker 1: you get a chance to grow if you can start

1045
01:10:05,840 --> 01:10:10,439
Speaker 1: squashing some things silently. But once the silence has taken

1046
01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:13,639
Speaker 1: away and you can publicly say what you wanna say

1047
01:10:13,920 --> 01:10:19,639
Speaker 1: with no repercussions, then it sends another message to those

1048
01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:24,120
Speaker 1: behind you, younger people. Hey, it's back to business as usual.

1049
01:10:24,439 --> 01:10:27,759
Speaker 1: That's why I've always hated the phrase, make America great

1050
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,559
Speaker 1: again because you want to go back to when because

1051
01:10:30,680 --> 01:10:33,439
Speaker 1: right now we keep going back to what we thought

1052
01:10:33,680 --> 01:10:38,360
Speaker 1: was a day gone by. And now this woman, Cindy Smith,

1053
01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:43,080
Speaker 1: Cindy Hide Smith, that's running against this African American man

1054
01:10:43,200 --> 01:10:47,760
Speaker 1: in Mississippi. For her to make such an insensitive remark,

1055

01:18:39,520 --> 01:18:41,800
Speaker 1: me a moment to be able to step back and

1171
01:18:42,040 --> 01:18:45,439

Speaker 1: millions of black folks grew up. You know, we grew

1198

01:20:37,840 --> 01:20:40,360
Speaker 1: my parents didn't go to college, my grandparents didn't go

1204
01:20:40,400 --> 01:20:43,800
Speaker 1: to college. They they held up a high bar for

1205
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:48,240
Speaker 1: us as as as as people. Um. And you know,

1206
01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:50,360
Speaker 1: we always sell an obligation to live up to that.

1207
01:20:50,600 --> 01:20:53,760
Speaker 1: I mean to see my father who was disabled from

1208
01:20:53,800 --> 01:20:56,599
Speaker 1: the time I could remember him, you know, and seeing

1209
01:20:56,640 --> 01:20:59,160
Speaker 1: him getting up and going to work every day without complaint.

1210
01:20:59,240 --> 01:21:03,000
Speaker 1: I've talked out this throughout my my time and politics.

1211
01:21:03,760 --> 01:21:07,160
Speaker 1: You know, it's hard to be half baked when you

1212
01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:09,240
Speaker 1: are raised in the house by a man like that,

1213
01:21:10,040 --> 01:21:14,400
Speaker 1: you know. Um. And every day, Steve, I live to

1214
01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:19,000
Speaker 1: make my family, proud, in my community, proud. Um. It's

1215
01:21:19,080 --> 01:21:21,880
Speaker 1: just important for us to tell our stories because I

1216
01:21:21,960 --> 01:21:25,200
Speaker 1: think people think we don't exist, you know, They've got

1217
01:21:25,280 --> 01:21:28,040
Speaker 1: what one image of what it means to be black.

1218
01:21:28,400 --> 01:21:31,040
Speaker 1: They don't know that we are so complex, and we

1219
01:21:31,160 --> 01:21:34,599
Speaker 1: are so faithful, and that we are so uh linked

1220
01:21:34,720 --> 01:21:38,120
Speaker 1: to our family, um, you know. And and that's why

1221
01:21:38,920 --> 01:21:41,760
Speaker 1: I'm proud to tell my story, because I want people

1222
01:21:41,800 --> 01:21:44,320
Speaker 1: to know all of who I am so that they're

1223
01:21:44,360 --> 01:21:47,960
Speaker 1: not mistaken at all. And this book, you know, I

1224
01:21:48,280 --> 01:21:51,000
Speaker 1: try to make it a story so that it's not

1225
01:21:51,240 --> 01:21:54,240
Speaker 1: just a chronology of things, but it's a story of

1226
01:21:54,360 --> 01:21:57,400
Speaker 1: this little girl, Michelle Robinson, who grew up on the

1227
01:21:57,479 --> 01:21:59,800
Speaker 1: South Side with a big brother, and she got into

1228
01:21:59,840 --> 01:22:03,080
Speaker 1: the fights, and she had some some challenges, and she

1229
01:22:03,200 --> 01:22:05,519
Speaker 1: went to public school and she got hit in the

1230
01:22:05,560 --> 01:22:08,360
Speaker 1: mouth by a bully and you know, shot, you know,

1231
01:22:08,560 --> 01:22:10,920
Speaker 1: And and it's a it's a set of stories that

1232
01:22:11,040 --> 01:22:13,559
Speaker 1: I hope take people along the journey because I get

1233
01:22:13,640 --> 01:22:15,479
Speaker 1: that question all the time. It's like, how did a

1234

1236
01:22:22,200 --> 01:22:24,800

1364
01:31:12,160 --> 01:31:15,559
Speaker 1: leave us with some parting words and closing remarks. Yeah,

1365
01:31:17,360 --> 01:31:19,120
Speaker 1: I kind of I kind of want to talk about

1366
01:31:19,200 --> 01:31:26,320
Speaker 1: something that's um, that's on me right now. Oh. I

1367
01:31:26,400 --> 01:31:31,320
Speaker 1: want to talk a little bit about expectations and I

1368
01:31:31,400 --> 01:31:35,120
Speaker 1: want to talk about patients. But I want to throw

1369
01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:37,479
Speaker 1: one more thing in there. I'm gonna put need in there.

1370
01:31:38,640 --> 01:31:43,559
Speaker 1: Need expectations and patients. Uh. It's something that I've been

1371
01:31:43,720 --> 01:31:47,560
Speaker 1: praying about, you know, and I've been asking God for

1372
01:31:47,720 --> 01:31:51,840
Speaker 1: it for quite some time and it hasn't gotten here.

1373
01:31:53,479 --> 01:31:58,880
Speaker 1: And uh, he knows exactly what I need. So as

1374
01:31:58,920 --> 01:32:01,080
Speaker 1: I'm saying this to you, I want you all to

1375
01:32:01,240 --> 01:32:06,960
Speaker 1: imagine yourself and plug in your need. So I'm talking

1376
01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:10,600
Speaker 1: to God right and I'm asking God for something that

1377
01:32:10,760 --> 01:32:13,840
Speaker 1: I need, and I know I need it because it

1378
01:32:13,880 --> 01:32:16,360
Speaker 1: would it would make some things go so much better,

1379
01:32:16,520 --> 01:32:21,599
Speaker 1: so much smoother, so much easier. Just overall, it would

1380
01:32:21,640 --> 01:32:24,759
Speaker 1: just help in so many areas. So I've been praying

1381
01:32:24,800 --> 01:32:30,000
Speaker 1: about it and it hasn't gotten here yet. And so

1382
01:32:30,400 --> 01:32:32,960
Speaker 1: my oldest sister texts me the other day and I

1383
01:32:33,000 --> 01:32:36,400
Speaker 1: didn't get back to him, and so just last night

1384
01:32:36,479 --> 01:32:39,880
Speaker 1: she texted me again and just said, hey, could you

1385
01:32:39,960 --> 01:32:43,560
Speaker 1: answer my text? I hope things are well with you,

1386
01:32:44,040 --> 01:32:48,320
Speaker 1: Love Mona. And so I text her back and I

1387
01:32:48,439 --> 01:32:50,880
Speaker 1: told everything is fine. I've just been working so much.

1388
01:32:50,960 --> 01:32:54,000
Speaker 1: I said, sometimes I don't get to answer your text

1389
01:32:54,040 --> 01:32:56,360
Speaker 1: when you send it to me right away because I'll

1390
01:32:56,360 --> 01:32:58,519
Speaker 1: be on the set of something, I'll be doing something.

1391
01:32:58,960 --> 01:33:00,920
Speaker 1: I said, but I get him, an I appreciate them.

1392
01:33:02,120 --> 01:33:05,599
Speaker 1: And then I told my oldest sister I asked her

1393
01:33:05,640 --> 01:33:09,479
Speaker 1: to please pray for me. I said, I prayed for

1394
01:33:09,560 --> 01:33:13,720
Speaker 1: a breakthrough from me, something I've been asking God for,

1395
01:33:15,400 --> 01:33:18,759
Speaker 1: so I can just you know, take, you know, relax

1396
01:33:18,800 --> 01:33:22,120
Speaker 1: a little bit about this situation. And I went on

1397
01:33:22,240 --> 01:33:25,479
Speaker 1: to tell my sister that's hard being successful and stuff

1398
01:33:25,560 --> 01:33:29,479
Speaker 1: like that. And I said, but we're good. I'm just

1399
01:33:29,640 --> 01:33:33,920
Speaker 1: working real hard. I told I love you, and then

1400
01:33:33,960 --> 01:33:37,040
Speaker 1: I said, let me know if you need something. She

1401
01:33:37,200 --> 01:33:42,000
Speaker 1: text me back the simplest thing. I remember. Now, I've

1402
01:33:42,120 --> 01:33:44,880
Speaker 1: told you that I was asking God for something that

1403
01:33:45,000 --> 01:33:49,800
Speaker 1: I needed and I have been waiting for it, and

1404
01:33:49,920 --> 01:33:52,599
Speaker 1: I and I and I, and I'm almost out of patience,

1405
01:33:52,760 --> 01:33:55,679
Speaker 1: to be honest with you. I just thinking it's taken

1406
01:33:55,720 --> 01:33:58,760
Speaker 1: a while, right, And I'm pretty sure you could feel

1407
01:33:58,800 --> 01:34:01,920
Speaker 1: that way too. Sometimes ask Gold for something and you

1408
01:34:02,120 --> 01:34:04,599
Speaker 1: you're living in the expectation and you get man, let's

1409
01:34:04,640 --> 01:34:07,880
Speaker 1: taking so long, and you're getting a little impatient. I

1410
01:34:08,000 --> 01:34:11,599
Speaker 1: think everything that's happened to every person. My sensters simply

1411
01:34:11,680 --> 01:34:15,639
Speaker 1: sent this text backs to me. She said, just take

1412
01:34:15,720 --> 01:34:20,000
Speaker 1: one day at a time. The Lord knows what he's doing.

1413
01:34:22,160 --> 01:34:25,519
Speaker 1: I'm praying for you. That was her message. Now, my

1414
01:34:25,680 --> 01:34:31,800
Speaker 1: sisters eighty two years old, she told her brother, who

1415
01:34:32,080 --> 01:34:36,320
Speaker 1: is like, you know, the family guy that they can

1416
01:34:36,360 --> 01:34:40,000
Speaker 1: all come to when they need something. But she simplified

1417
01:34:40,040 --> 01:34:43,320
Speaker 1: it for me so easy. She said, just take one

1418
01:34:43,360 --> 01:34:46,400
Speaker 1: a day at a time. The Lord knows what he's doing.

1419
01:34:47,200 --> 01:34:49,160
Speaker 1: And do you know how much better. That made me

1420
01:34:49,360 --> 01:34:53,160
Speaker 1: feel I simply back and said I texted back. I said, Okay,

1421
01:34:53,200 --> 01:34:56,599
Speaker 1: I will, because you know this thing that I've been

1422
01:34:56,720 --> 01:35:00,200
Speaker 1: asking God for that I so desperately feel like I need,

1423
01:35:00,920 --> 01:35:04,479
Speaker 1: and I keep expecting it to happen, but I'm starting

1424
01:35:04,520 --> 01:35:10,080
Speaker 1: to lose patience about it. My sister says something so simple,

1425
01:35:11,800 --> 01:35:14,560
Speaker 1: if you just take one day at a time, the

1426
01:35:14,800 --> 01:35:19,040
Speaker 1: Lord knows what he's doing, and if I look at it.

1427
01:35:19,640 --> 01:35:22,439
Speaker 1: In her simple way of talking to her brother, she

1428
01:35:22,640 --> 01:35:26,360
Speaker 1: knows me very well. Her simple way of talking to

1429
01:35:26,520 --> 01:35:30,479
Speaker 1: me was letting me know that if you just keep

1430
01:35:30,560 --> 01:35:34,840
Speaker 1: waking up and keep doing what you're doing, God got

1431
01:35:34,920 --> 01:35:38,920
Speaker 1: all this under control. He know what he's doing. And

1432
01:35:39,040 --> 01:35:43,840
Speaker 1: you know what he always has. He's always known what

1433
01:35:44,080 --> 01:35:50,320
Speaker 1: he's doing. Always. He ain't never not known what he

1434
01:35:50,439 --> 01:35:52,880
Speaker 1: was doing. Even when I thought I wanted it to

1435
01:35:52,960 --> 01:35:55,760
Speaker 1: go another way, and he worked it out a different way.

1436
01:35:56,360 --> 01:35:59,160
Speaker 1: It was for the best, and so I just had

1437
01:35:59,200 --> 01:36:02,640
Speaker 1: to grab myself off and go, Okay, I will. And

1438
01:36:02,720 --> 01:36:04,880
Speaker 1: it made me feel better because I said, Okay, man,

1439
01:36:06,439 --> 01:36:12,400
Speaker 1: I'm actually okay. I do actually keep waking up. I

1440
01:36:12,520 --> 01:36:18,440
Speaker 1: do keep somehow surviving it all. I'm not just surviving.

1441
01:36:18,560 --> 01:36:23,519
Speaker 1: I'm actually thriving. I'm going through it, but I'm getting

1442
01:36:23,640 --> 01:36:28,200
Speaker 1: through it. It's taking a while, but it's in the process.

1443
01:36:29,640 --> 01:36:35,360
Speaker 1: And God does know what he's doing. So that settled

1444
01:36:35,439 --> 01:36:40,200
Speaker 1: it for me. So I'm saying to you, if that's

1445
01:36:40,240 --> 01:36:43,680
Speaker 1: something you've been praying about, something that you need, and

1446
01:36:43,800 --> 01:36:45,960
Speaker 1: you're living your life in the expectation because you know

1447
01:36:46,040 --> 01:36:48,240
Speaker 1: he's gonna deliver it for you, but you haven't got

1448
01:36:48,320 --> 01:36:52,080
Speaker 1: a little bit impatient with it like I have, just

1449
01:36:52,200 --> 01:36:56,040
Speaker 1: taking a day at a time. God knows exactly what

1450
01:36:56,200 --> 01:37:00,080
Speaker 1: he's doing. He's working on something on your behalf that

1451
01:37:00,160 --> 01:37:02,360
Speaker 1: you don't even know about, and when you give it

1452
01:37:02,439 --> 01:37:05,200
Speaker 1: to you, it's gonna fix it all, probably better than

1453
01:37:05,240 --> 01:37:08,679
Speaker 1: you could have ever imagined. Those are my closing remarks.

1454
01:37:09,160 --> 01:37:19,880
Speaker 1: Just something to think about. Yeah, wow, that puts things

1455
01:37:19,960 --> 01:37:26,240
Speaker 1: in perspective. Yeah, I'm stopped playing in the day. M hmm. Yeah.

1456
01:37:26,680 --> 01:37:48,080
