You know, I ran across something on my timeline 197 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 7: on Facebook talking about the possibility of New York City 198 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 7: getting rid of the Regent's tests for students to graduate 199 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 7: high school. And I think that's a horrible idea. You know, 200 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 7: I understand that to to. 201 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 3: Gain college admissions. 202 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 7: You know, they slowed down on the SAT, which is 203 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 7: understandable because there was some cultural bias to it, you know, 204 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 7: understanding the idea of the analogy of social sofa to 205 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 7: fourier or couch just. 206 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 3: The hallway if you were in a project. 207 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 7: She had no idea what the then fourier is. 208 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 4: So I did it. 209 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 7: But you have to have some competency, competency to get 210 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 7: out of high school, man, and to take the region's 211 00:07:58,280 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 7: test out. I think it's crazy. 212 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: Well, the region's test is. 213 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 5: You know, New York has wanted seven states that has 214 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 5: their regions exams. But they were saying the reason that 215 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 5: they were getting rid of the Region's exam is one 216 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 5: that's not in every state. And two they're saying a 217 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 5: lot of kids just don't take tests well. And if 218 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 5: a kid doesn't take tests well or gainst anxiety, or 219 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 5: gets nervous, they can possibly fail. 220 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 8: And if they fail that that region's exam. 221 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 5: Even if they do well, they might not be able 222 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 5: to get their high school diploma. 223 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: That's how I ended up in the slow glass because 224 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: I'm not good at taking. 225 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 7: The shot. Under President Bush Junior, there was a policy 226 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 7: called NCLB, no child. 227 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 8: That's behind correct. 228 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 7: That was the worst policy in educational history because, like 229 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 7: you said, they got this test anxiety. Well listen, they're 230 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 7: not going to leave them behind anyway.

That's on you 342 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: comedy for a while. I got I got some because 343 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 1: you're still saying you're a slave. No, you know, slave 344 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: math is teaching the slave to read. You know, Listen, 345 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: I'm talking about my own personal insecurity. I'm an educated person. 346 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 1: I'm usually the smartest person in the room. He reads 347 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:49,679 Speaker 1: so much it makes me feel like, oh do I 348 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,719 Speaker 1: even know how to read? That joke works if I 349 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: had a black boyfriend. My boyfriend was black. That joke 350 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: actually works better if I had and you the slave 351 00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,719 Speaker 1: and the white person is the slave. Listen, if you calne, well, 352 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: you know the first anti literacy laws were created in 353 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: north of Stodca line. 354 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 11: You are sure, sure, but that's not my roles. Comedian 355 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 11: to started getting into like like literacy laws and stuff 356 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 11: like that. You completely lost that I evoked provocative imagery 357 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 11: sometimes in my jokes. Some people are very sensitive to that. 358 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 11: That's your right. You don't have to laugh at that. 359 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 11: You could like hear the word slavery and completely shut off. 360 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 11: That's completely fine, But don't misconstrue what I said and 361 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 11: don't like make it into something that is not, because 362 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 11: that's where I start to get offended that the statement 363 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 11: like you said it like multiple times on the show, 364 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 11: like oh, he's into slave role play. 365 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: With his white boyfriend. That's untrue that I think I 366 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: said it Charlemagne. That is not the joke. 367 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 11: The joke's about me reading the jokes about my insecurity, 368 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 11: about like not being as well read. When I be 369 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 11: in bed next to him and he's saying, when I'm 370 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 11: in bed next to him and he's like on his 371 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 11: third novel of the month, I'll be watching breakfast club 372 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 11: interviews and I feel like, oh, do I should read more? 373 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 1: That's what the joke is. The joke. 374 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 11: It has nothing to do with sex, has nothing to 375 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 11: do with the type of sex that we have. And 376 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 11: that's just absolutely false, but still not a good joke. 377 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 11: When you're black and hey, listen, that's on you. 378 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: It's on you. You do stand up and you figure 379 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: it out for me, the crowds laugh whatever. I'll say 380 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: this about if the crowd is the majority white, are 381 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 1: they laughing with you or at you? You know, it's fine. 382 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: I'm actually I'm actually shocked. 383 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 8: It's actually a pretty decent amount of black. 384 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 11: People coming out to see me. I really appreciate y'all 385 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 11: for coming out. I want y'all to keep coming out too. 386 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 11: I like the seeing it really, especially black women are 387 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 11: like in the crowd, they've been like talking to me. 388 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 11: They seem invested in my life, and it makes me 389 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 11: feel really really special. So I really like that and 390 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 11: I appreciate that. Now, I want to move on to 391 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 11: the Dave Chappelle portion of it, because I've heard you 392 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 11: comment on that too. I deeply regret ever saying anything 393 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 11: about Dave Chappelle to the press. I want to say 394 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 11: that I'm sorry for that, because one, I'm a huge 395 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 11: Dave Chappelle Dave Chappelle fan. I love Dave like. I 396 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 11: think he's brilliant. I think he's a bright lie in 397 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 11: a dying industry. I think he's more important now than 398 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 11: ever before, because like comedians are now just posting clips 399 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 11: that I'm doing crowd work online and calling at art, 400 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 11: and it's not art. Dave Chappelle is an artist. He's 401 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 11: one of the few artists that we have, and I 402 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 11: care deeply about the work that he makes. With that said, 403 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 11: the criticism that I had had nothing to do with 404 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 11: the morality of the joke, had nothing to do with 405 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 11: the ethics of the joke. That's something that's also been misreported. 406 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 11: The criticism I had was that of a fan someone 407 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 11: who respects him so much that I want him to 408 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 11: focus his genius on a wide range of topics. I 409 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 11: think that like it started, but it started being really 410 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 11: really focused on one thing. 411 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 1: Well, I'll say this. Look that's like I'm saying that 412 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: about the slave YoY. I'll say this. I'm also a 413 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: big fan of jay Z. If jay Z made three 414 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: albums about trans people, I'd be like, Hey, what's going 415 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: on with jay? But Jaz made three albums more than 416 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 1: three albums about selling drugs, You're just gonna put him 417 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: in that. Uh, you don't pigeonhole them with debt, No 418 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: they jay Z. I mean, listen, I would love to 419 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 1: get to jay z argument. Jay Z was very personal, 420 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: very emotional. He always evolved. Four four four was incredible 421 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 1: because it showed growth and evolution and something you've never 422 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 1: seen before in rap. 423 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 11: And that's a thing with comedy too. Comedy doesn't grow, 424 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 11: comedy doesn't evolve. It's it's kind of stunted like rap. 425 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 11: And like we just started getting like real braggadocious, like 426 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 11: antagonistic with the crowd, and it can evolve, like and 427 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 11: we need smart people like Dave, like Chris Rock, like 428 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 11: myself to actually evolve the art form because. 429 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: It is dying. It's so so important for people to 430 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: go up and do deep personal stories or have a 431 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: deep perspective about things going on in the world because 432 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,440 Speaker 1: it's not happening. You see it online. Yeah, I know. 433 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,400 Speaker 11: Well listen, all I'm saying is and because I've talked 434 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 11: about Dave a lot, I don't want to talk about 435 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 11: Dave anymore. I honestly, I called him an ego manac. 436 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,680 Speaker 11: I'm a ego maniac. I'm here to talk about me. 437 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:54,200 Speaker 11: I have a show that I want to talk about. 438 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: A Yeah, yeah, I know, you know. 439 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,040 Speaker 11: And I'll tell you honestly, from now on, any the 440 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 11: thoughts I have for Dave will be directed in a 441 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:04,120 Speaker 11: phone call to day. 442 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: I'll never do it again. 443 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 8: All Right, we got more A comedian girl called Michael. 444 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 8: When we come back, so don't move. 445 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 1: It's to breakfast Club.

But 450 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 1: when I look at it, I say no, she's very religious. 451 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 1: So I think she's looking at it through the religious religion. 452 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, And I think that at some point you 453 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 1: have to think about how you got to the place 454 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 1: that you are. I had a really good conversation with 455 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: my mom about even her finding religion and needing religion, 456 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 1: about the hurt, the disappointment in her life from her 457 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: dad and from other people in her life that led 458 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: her to needing God as much as she does and 459 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: depending on God as much she does. And we were 460 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: having a really really good conversation that my dad woke 461 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: up and interrupted. Its Yeah yeah, but you know, you 462 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: have to explore your life. You got to explore the 463 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: reasons why, because you can hurt people, like I know, 464 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: like people call it faith whatever, but they're human beings, 465 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: and like your opinion, my mother's opinion of me matters 466 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: so much. What made you want to do it now? 467 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 11: Well, because after I came out, I realized that there 468 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,119 Speaker 11: are other things I needed to come out about. I 469 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 11: think everybody's in a closet about something, and I was 470 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 11: in a closet. It was more than just being gay. 471 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 11: It was about of the feelings that I have. I 472 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 11: was in a closet about sex, addiction, or how I 473 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 11: am as a friend, or all these things. Like just 474 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 11: like I was a closeted person. I was holding everything 475 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 11: inside and the show was an outlet for me. I'm 476 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 11: an artist, and I use art as a means of 477 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 11: expression and as a means to heal, and so the 478 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 11: show just felt like a natural. I was doing all 479 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 11: these shows, I was doing stand up, and stand up 480 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 11: started being kind of a form of therapy. 481 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 1: It was like reassociated therapy that would just go up 482 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 1: and I would talk about a problem that I have, 483 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,479 Speaker 1: a deep personal problem that I have. The response from 484 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: the audience started being better. That's what I mean, Like 485 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,360 Speaker 1: people coming to the shows there like like the heckles 486 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: that I get as a comedian are so thoughtful, Like 487 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 1: no comedian gets like the thought Like people turn into 488 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: therapists in the audience.

No, No, 490 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 1: Like people are smart. I believe that. I believe that, 491 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: Like Twitter isn't just the that's not what the world is. 492 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 7: Like. 493 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 1: I hate it.

Charlemagne, I hate no, 495 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 1: But the heckles that I get are thoughtful responses because 496 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: you open yourself up and people open themselves up like 497 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 1: like they they respond in kind. And so I'm glad 498 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,399 Speaker 1: you're a good friends to your friends who are expressing 499 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: themselves to you.

Man, you got to keep watching the show. 507 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 1: You had a good explanation, though, you said, because you 508 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: waited so long to come out. Yeah, so now you 509 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 1: feel like a seventeen year old. Yeah, yeah, having making up, 510 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 1: making up for lost time, like just like yeah, they're 511 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:36,920 Speaker 1: they're like, my emotional maturity level was a bit delayed. 512 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 1: That's it's a little embarrassing to admit, but true. But 513 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: even that, I do think there are certain aspects of 514 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 1: my personality that I inherit from my father. I've been 515 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: reading about that a lot, just like being you know, 516 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: you you learn how to be a man from your dad, 517 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 1: and I learned he hes gonna get mad because hes 518 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 1: gonna watch this, like always throwing me under the bus. 519 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 1: But it's just true, like it's something you learn therapy, 520 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 1: Like I hope this is how you model yourself as 521 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,479 Speaker 1: a man. And so yeah, I look to sex as 522 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 1: a form of validation for my manlyhood, like to make 523 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 1: me feel like a man. Yeah, what did this show 524 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: doing for you that therapy can't. I've been using it 525 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: as a form of therapy because therapy is exploring yourself 526 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: and exploring your past, but it's not necessarily confrontation. I 527 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 1: still needed a tool to be confident enough to have 528 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: a conversation with my dad that I'd be terrified having otherwise. 529 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: Like you know, if I'm home in North Carolina, I'm 530 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: just like, you know, smiling, being a good son, being 531 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,640 Speaker 1: the son that they want me to be. And I'm 532 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: not saying the real things, asking the real questions when 533 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: the camera's on. I've become like a journalist for my 534 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 1: own life, like no, no, no, what's that you said? 535 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: Ninety eight?

We 619 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 1: used to get so drunk. But over the years, you know, 620 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 1: that has just gone away to the point where like, well, 621 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 1: when I'm out now, I could do a glass of 622 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 1: wine and be good if I do. If I do 623 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 1: two regular drinks at tequila, Like I'm just talking about 624 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 1: neat tequila with two ice cubes and a slice of 625 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 1: orange juice.

I can't just get up the next day 627 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: and function like it takes me twenty four to thirty 628 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: six hours to recover from that. Yeah, for me, it's 629 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: it's I say, social media, I've been off that. Yeah. 630 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 5: As I get older now and I don't even I 631 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:16,120 Speaker 5: don't even tap into it to I say, going out. 632 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 5: I used to be the go out king every night. 633 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,919 Speaker 5: Now what if I'm home, I want to stay home 634 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 5: if somebody calls me, I have to leave my house. 635 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 5: It's a bunch of questions. 636 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: Absolutely, it's a bunch of questions. And when I say humans, man, 637 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 1: what I mean by humans? When I say I'm tired 638 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: of humans? I am tired of proving yourself as a friend. So, 639 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 1: for example, you can have friends that you've been friends 640 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 1: with for years, but you know your friends right and 641 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: you know that you know they get upset over small 642 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: things in life. It come a certain point after why 643 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 1: we are too old for that. So if you don't 644 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 1: know who I am by now and you constantly get 645 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,919 Speaker 1: upset over little small things or because you feel slighted, 646 00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: or because you didn't get what you want from me, 647 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 1: that's the other thing that people don't realize. It's not 648 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 1: really your friend. If the first time they don't get 649 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: what they want from you, you know, they get upset. 650 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 1: I don't have time for those kind of relationships at all, 651 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 1: Relationships that you got to walk on the eggshells with 652 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 1: none whatsoever. 653 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:15,719 Speaker 8: Somebody said bills in the comments. 654 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 1: Oh, we ain't never like those, But guess what, that's 655 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 1: part of adult and you ain't got no choice. You 656 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: ain't got no choice for that. 657 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 8: I'm trying to say. 658 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 1: Somebody somebody said, nicks. As they get older, they tired 659 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: of knicks. Well, it's the same thing as humans. It's 660 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 1: not the same thing. It's the same thing. And one 661 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: other person said traffic. Nothing you can do about another. 662 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 1: But now, but see for traffic. 663 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 5: Now, when when you when you start get a little older, 664 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 5: you start planning to avoid traffic.

Nah exactly. 741 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 5: It's a term hood negative though when people say hood 742 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 5: sometimes it comes off as negative. 743 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: I don't take it as a negative term. Is it 744 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:46,719 Speaker 1: a negative term? 745 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 7: No? 746 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 10: And I think you know, part of the you know, 747 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 10: the idea of not All Hood is hood is not 748 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 10: a negative term. Hood is part of the community. Like 749 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 10: when we speak of the black community, we always tend 750 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 10: to refer to it as if it's a monol, that's right. 751 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: But there are all these different. 752 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 10: Lanes to the Black community, all these levels, all these 753 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 10: different lanes, and oftentimes we don't have a space where 754 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 10: we can actually you know, discuss, acknowledge and deal with 755 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 10: with all of those levels, all those lanes. 756 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: So the hood is not a bad thing. Yes, we 757 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: are hood, but we're not. 758 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 10: All hood and the media, and I think part of 759 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 10: it is the media tends to put more focus on 760 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 10: one aspect of the Black community. Thus we get all 761 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 10: the stereotypes and preconceived ideas, and. 762 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: Hood comes from like neighborhood. 763 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 12: I did get that question a lot though you have 764 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 12: being a podcast. 765 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: Isn't hood negative? 766 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 12: So I understand where you're coming from.

You know, I neeled my way out of 841 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: the lot. But your circumstance was different, though, because you 842 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 1: didn't know if people wanted to be with you already 843 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 1: wanted to be with you know what I mean. 844 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 10: There was that because I've been doing it for so long, 845 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 10: I've been really blessed with a great sense of discernment. 846 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: So that was never my issue.

For me, the biggest gift that 903 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:56,319 Speaker 10: I can give my daughter is a sense of self. 904 00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,320 Speaker 10: So when she goes out into the world, she is 905 00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 10: not easy influenced by her surrounding. Right, So since she 906 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,279 Speaker 10: was like two years old, you know, someone says to her, Oh, 907 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 10: you're so pretty, you're so cute, you're so beautiful, She'll 908 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 10: say thank you. 909 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 1: When I'm smart too.

And we talked about, you know, so 993 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:05,720 Speaker 10: much of you know, hip hop today that's trash and whatnot. 994 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,799 Speaker 10: But you know, as I said before, they grew up 995 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,400 Speaker 10: listening to what we were listening to. Right, So we 996 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 10: are complicit in, you know, the parts of hip hop 997 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,760 Speaker 10: today that we don't like because they grew up listening 998 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 10: to us. Listening listening to the content is the same. 999 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 10: The skill set is just whack. That's true, right, which 1000 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:24,239 Speaker 10: is what makes it stand out. 1001 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,800 Speaker 13: And also they didn't listen to what we were listening to. 1002 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,520 Speaker 13: We listened to music when there was more than just 1003 00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:32,359 Speaker 13: hip hop. Hip hop was not the juggernaut of music 1004 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,360 Speaker 13: that it is now. Like we like, yeah, you know, 1005 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 13: like we was rocking to s Hall notes, right, you 1006 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:41,839 Speaker 13: know what I mean the eighties. Yeah, Like we had 1007 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:45,000 Speaker 13: these a lot of other influences that I think the 1008 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:46,880 Speaker 13: youth of today don't necessarily have. 1009 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:49,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, turns of balance. Yeah. Would you say J Cole 1010 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:50,400 Speaker 1: had the anti black message? 1011 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 10: No, so so for me, because it has become the 1012 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:56,359 Speaker 10: staple and hip hop like it's got to be. That's 1013 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 10: why I said in that clip. I think there should 1014 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,600 Speaker 10: be a moratorium on both of those works in hip 1015 00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 10: hop because at this point, it's corny, it's lazy. 1016 00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 1: Everybody is using it. 1017 00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:08,280 Speaker 10: So let's like, you know, there are so many brilliant 1018 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,000 Speaker 10: writers and lyricists out there that it's like, come on, 1019 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:12,800 Speaker 10: let's let's let's stop our game. We don't have to 1020 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,400 Speaker 10: keep doing If everybody's doing it, then come on do 1021 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 10: something different, you know. So my thing with with with 1022 00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,360 Speaker 10: Ja Cole it just I just got to a point 1023 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:24,439 Speaker 10: where I got tired of hearing inward and being called 1024 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:27,040 Speaker 10: inWORD in every hip hop song I'm listening to. And 1025 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:31,200 Speaker 10: I mentioned J Cole because I love J Cole and 1026 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:34,080 Speaker 10: he's such and an incredible lyricist that when I hear 1027 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:37,239 Speaker 10: him just gratuitously use either those words, I'm like, ah, 1028 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:41,480 Speaker 10: I mean kind of a tune out doesn't mean doesn't 1029 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:44,719 Speaker 10: mean I like J Cole or respect his pen game 1030 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 10: any less. I just go, all right, I'm kind of 1031 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:49,719 Speaker 10: I got to tune out because it's not bringing you, 1032 00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 10: it's not feeding me. 1033 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:52,080 Speaker 1: But I also think I have a notion too, right, 1034 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 1: I went to Hampton. When I used to drive to Hampton. 1035 00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:55,799 Speaker 1: I'm listening to Norm because it's keeping me up. 1036 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:56,440 Speaker 4: What what what? 1037 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:58,360 Speaker 8: And I'm thinking I'm the biggest what. 1038 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,000 Speaker 1: But then when you get a little older. 1039 00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:03,440 Speaker 8: You'd be like, that's a little noise. 1040 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 1: Right, let me talk about something like listening to it 1041 00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: when I'm working out from the south, like workout everything. 1042 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:12,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, but I also grew up on Goodie Mob, you know, 1043 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 5: and I think we've got more of a balance right 1044 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:16,920 Speaker 5: as we get older than one we've got, we've been 1045 00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:17,919 Speaker 5: exposed to more music. 1046 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:19,359 Speaker 13: It's it's a little different now, you know. I mean, 1047 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:21,759 Speaker 13: like they still in the in the throes of what's hot. 1048 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 13: The how we access music is different now because they're 1049 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:26,919 Speaker 13: just like yo, you know, point click, not necessarily about 1050 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 13: what's on the radio. It's about what they want to 1051 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 13: listen to, which is and they've got direct access to that. 1052 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:32,239 Speaker 4: You know. 1053 00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 1: Don't want to ask from a woman's perspective, you know 1054 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 1: what I find interesting, right? You know, we have these conversations, 1055 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 1: but I will never forget Snoop Dogg and DMX's versus. 1056 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 1: When they did their versus, I think it was during 1057 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: COVID and I remember thinking, oh, this is going to 1058 00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:47,520 Speaker 1: night that boy they finally listened to Snoop and DMX 1059 00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:49,880 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be a woke cancel fest on Twitter. 1060 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:52,040 Speaker 1: But there was people in the comments, the same people 1061 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:55,600 Speaker 1: I usually see trying to cancel people loving it. But 1062 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:57,360 Speaker 1: how does that make you feel? Knowing you came up 1063 00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:00,640 Speaker 1: in that era of the nineties is a conflicting No, 1064 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:01,400 Speaker 1: not at all. 1065 00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 12: And I'm right in the middle with them in terms 1066 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:05,480 Speaker 12: of number one, the N word and just this whole 1067 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,799 Speaker 12: idea of music and what it represents, because I love 1068 00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 12: Wutang and when I listen to them, I get like 1069 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:13,879 Speaker 12: a good energy out, not just work out, but when 1070 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:16,600 Speaker 12: something goes wrong sometimes that music allows you to let 1071 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:19,880 Speaker 12: stuff out, you know that you just couldn't get out 1072 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 12: in the day when you're with your peers or when 1073 00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 12: you're on the streets, you just in the car loud 1074 00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 12: with it. And then I also think it's how were 1075 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,280 Speaker 12: we brought up and what do we bring to the table. 1076 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:31,759 Speaker 12: So the N word, for example, I don't know how 1077 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,680 Speaker 12: you were introduced to it, ever, but that's shaped probably 1078 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:37,360 Speaker 12: what the word means to you, and same with me 1079 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,200 Speaker 12: probably saying to you. And we all have different things 1080 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:42,440 Speaker 12: that we bring to the table, just culturally, and I 1081 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 12: think that just shifts, and I'm a firm believer in 1082 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:46,640 Speaker 12: the First Amendment, like all the way, because once you 1083 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:50,520 Speaker 12: start saying no here and no here, then I'm giving 1084 00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 12: somebody else the authority to say no to me one 1085 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:53,080 Speaker 12: day too. 1086 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:54,600 Speaker 1: And I don't want that precedent. 1087 00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 12: I don't want them saying, well, you can't say this 1088 00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:59,800 Speaker 12: and you can't say that just because of the content 1089 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 12: of it or the context of it. 1090 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:02,960 Speaker 1: We don't like it at all. 1091 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:04,800 Speaker 12: It's like when they try to bring up brack lyrics 1092 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,759 Speaker 12: when they go to jail in court, right, I mean, 1093 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:09,839 Speaker 12: that doesn't make any sense. We all have the same 1094 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,480 Speaker 12: equal First Amendment rights and you should fight for them 1095 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 12: and use them equally. 1096 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,840 Speaker 5: We got more with Malcolm, Jamol Warner, Candace Kelly and 1097 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:18,000 Speaker 5: while you see Baraka. 1098 00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,440 Speaker 8: When we come back from the NOD podcast. 1099 00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:20,799 Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. 1100 00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 5: Good Morning Morning, Everybody's DJ Envy Jess Hilarious, Chelamage to God. 1101 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 1: We are the Breakfast Club. 1102 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,439 Speaker 5: We're still kicking them with Malcolm, Jamaol Warner, Candace Kelly 1103 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:31,320 Speaker 5: and while you see Baraka from the Not Old Hood podcast, 1104 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 5: let me ask you a question. Yeah, TikToker, you got 1105 00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:36,080 Speaker 5: seen online. She said the n word, right, she got 1106 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:37,319 Speaker 5: fired from her regular job. 1107 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:40,560 Speaker 1: Oh, this was the girl who was cooking that young lady. Yes, 1108 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:43,160 Speaker 1: and in her comments she was also white by the way. Yes, 1109 00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:47,440 Speaker 1: but that's a clinical thought. That's a critical context. 1110 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:48,800 Speaker 8: But this is where I'm gonna close with. 1111 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 5: She said on her TikTok that she didn't apologize because 1112 00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:53,279 Speaker 5: it was her first right amendment to say what she 1113 00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:55,520 Speaker 5: wanted to say, and she shouldn't have got fired. 1114 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:57,440 Speaker 8: What's your thoughts on somebody like that? It is her 1115 00:47:57,440 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 8: first right amendment? 1116 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, but then there are three to for rules. 1117 00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 12: There's First Amendment rules on TikTok, there's First Amendment rules 1118 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:05,520 Speaker 12: at her work, and then there's her own rules of 1119 00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:07,480 Speaker 12: what she believes about the in word, and all of 1120 00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:08,319 Speaker 12: them conflicted, and. 1121 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:10,680 Speaker 1: She got exactly what she deserves. She didn't. Then that's 1122 00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:12,880 Speaker 1: what happened. That's why you do have to be careful 1123 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 1: with it. You can't be on TikTok saying it. I mean, 1124 00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:16,920 Speaker 1: this is a good examples. 1125 00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 2: No person, No, no, you can't. 1126 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:21,759 Speaker 12: So you just have to really understand how to use 1127 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,320 Speaker 12: the First Amendment to So for example, if you the KKK, 1128 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 12: you can walk march anywhere in America. 1129 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:29,319 Speaker 1: You just have to get the permit. You can't walk 1130 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:29,960 Speaker 1: on your own. 1131 00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:31,600 Speaker 5: You have to follow the rules. 1132 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,439 Speaker 1: She didn't follow the rules. She didn't follow her own 1133 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:39,319 Speaker 1: HR rules at work, and that was her problem. That's right. 1134 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:45,440 Speaker 5: Like you said, it's also where you came from, right, 1135 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:48,480 Speaker 5: because the N word was a sign of endearment. 1136 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 1: Sure, yes, it was that. 1137 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:53,840 Speaker 8: You know, you really didn't hear the. 1138 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,319 Speaker 5: Extremes of it until I went to Hampton in the South, 1139 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:57,840 Speaker 5: and you'll be like, oh no, they're not saying it. 1140 00:48:57,880 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 1: As right, right, right, right. 1141 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:01,279 Speaker 7: Right. 1142 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 8: It's a different way. 1143 00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 13: And that's sort of been part, you know, part of 1144 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:06,200 Speaker 13: my argument for a lot of people it's a term 1145 00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:09,279 Speaker 13: of endearment, like it's love. There are more interactions that 1146 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,560 Speaker 13: are using the word that are about love and they 1147 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:13,960 Speaker 13: are about disrespect. So you know, and yes, we know 1148 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:16,439 Speaker 13: the history of it, we also know that that's mine. 1149 00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 13: You also said, we showed our culture out hip hop 1150 00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:25,640 Speaker 13: industry wise. It's sort of the bigger picture, right because 1151 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:27,880 Speaker 13: they did it the jazz like they co opted it 1152 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,640 Speaker 13: and used it for their own purposes. 1153 00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:33,800 Speaker 10: But there wasn't messages and jazz that were going to 1154 00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:36,040 Speaker 10: have an effect. I mean, black people see them right. 1155 00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:38,759 Speaker 13: I mean, yeah, I mean we sort ourself out. But 1156 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:42,000 Speaker 13: I also feel like from a macro perspective, the civil 1157 00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:45,000 Speaker 13: rights movement created a lot of opportunities and it shifted 1158 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:49,720 Speaker 13: the mentality that made many of us very passive. 1159 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:55,160 Speaker 1: Though. Yeah, I feel like I integrated my people into 1160 00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:57,560 Speaker 1: a burning house. Into a burning house, right, we had. 1161 00:49:57,719 --> 00:50:00,839 Speaker 1: It was more of a SENTI of independence, go deep, 1162 00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:07,759 Speaker 1: It's okay, no argument, man. 1163 00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:10,359 Speaker 13: My godfather gonna call me and be like, young man, 1164 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:16,080 Speaker 13: it's heavyest a lot, and I'm like, ah, you got 1165 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:17,040 Speaker 13: me a pinch right now. 1166 00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:19,279 Speaker 10: I mean even, I mean, you know, there was a 1167 00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:21,800 Speaker 10: term and hip hop artists talk about it when the 1168 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:25,000 Speaker 10: record labels say to them, this is what you have 1169 00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:26,719 Speaker 10: to rap about, and this is what we're paying for 1170 00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:27,239 Speaker 10: you to write. 1171 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:27,440 Speaker 1: Right. 1172 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:30,480 Speaker 10: And again, I say, in a lot of ways, we 1173 00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:33,520 Speaker 10: are complicit in what we see. You know, the state 1174 00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:37,560 Speaker 10: of hip hop and the younger generation. We allowed that happened. 1175 00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:41,040 Speaker 10: And for the dollars, Tucker, I'm gonna get a T 1176 00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:43,080 Speaker 10: shirt that says was right. 1177 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:45,200 Speaker 1: You know. I had a couple of questions. I want 1178 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:47,160 Speaker 1: people subscribe to the podcast, but when it comes to 1179 00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:49,640 Speaker 1: TV and movies, do you have the same discretion with 1180 00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:51,040 Speaker 1: the N word and the B word. 1181 00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:54,520 Speaker 10: Yeah, you mean in terms of using it, in terms 1182 00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:56,560 Speaker 10: of my use of it or the industry's use of 1183 00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:57,319 Speaker 10: it both. 1184 00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:02,919 Speaker 1: So I think I am I'm against the gratuitous use 1185 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:03,759 Speaker 1: of the words. 1186 00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:06,920 Speaker 10: Like I understand all of the arguments and all of 1187 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:11,000 Speaker 10: the defending, but I think what's getting lost is I'm 1188 00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 10: referring to the gratuitous use of it. Sure, we can 1189 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:18,640 Speaker 10: talk all day about there are some circumstances where that 1190 00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 10: word is the only thing that really you know, So 1191 00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:23,719 Speaker 10: I'm aware of all of that. 1192 00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:25,840 Speaker 1: But my issue was, I said, it's the. 1193 00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:29,360 Speaker 12: Gratuitous use of it, because I would imagine right that 1194 00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:31,759 Speaker 12: if you get a tight script that takes place in 1195 00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:35,440 Speaker 12: the nineteen sixties, well that script's don't have the N word, right, 1196 00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:38,640 Speaker 12: So right, that's that's different. And that's what we talk 1197 00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:41,160 Speaker 12: about a lot amongst the three of us, is that 1198 00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:44,480 Speaker 12: it does have a place. We can't just erase that 1199 00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:47,400 Speaker 12: of history, right, it has a place. You cannot do 1200 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:51,719 Speaker 12: certain things without the word coming up. It's just where 1201 00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:53,359 Speaker 12: you place it in your own life, and that's where 1202 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 12: you payeah. 1203 00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:58,200 Speaker 1: But I can't go do an August Wilson play period 1204 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 1: to say you know what I'm saying. So I get 1205 00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:02,759 Speaker 1: all of that. 1206 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:05,880 Speaker 10: I think my issue is along with the I go 1207 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:11,120 Speaker 10: back to anti black messaging and our music, the gratuitous. 1208 00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:12,000 Speaker 1: Use of the N word. It's just you know, it's 1209 00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:14,440 Speaker 1: just for me. I'm just like, you know, enough already. 1210 00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:16,080 Speaker 1: And again I said enough already. 1211 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 10: But then I also go back to, you know, there's 1212 00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:23,600 Speaker 10: so many incredible lyricists who have proven their pin game 1213 00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:26,960 Speaker 10: is top notch, and I go, well, just like, elevate 1214 00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:30,000 Speaker 10: this if all these corny and mothers are using in 1215 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:33,399 Speaker 10: all of their lyrics elevant like show them.

When I call 1272 00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:05,080 Speaker 1: jes Hilarius and she don't answer, but then I see 1273 00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:08,080 Speaker 1: her back to back posting videos and pictures on her story. 1274 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:10,120 Speaker 1: I'd be wanting to set things on fire, but I 1275 00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:12,960 Speaker 1: don't because I'm mentally and emotionally stable. Oh and one 1276 00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:16,040 Speaker 1: more fun fact. Michelle Young said this was her friend's house, 1277 00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:19,160 Speaker 1: but as you heard in the news report, she didn't 1278 00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:21,600 Speaker 1: know this woman and the woman didn't know her. Would 1279 00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:23,719 Speaker 1: you like to know some more details? Michelle Young told 1280 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:26,880 Speaker 1: officers she believed the home belonged to a friend. She 1281 00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 1: also said that she saw a sign that said which 1282 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:34,120 Speaker 1: is welcome, and because she was a witch she identifies 1283 00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:37,279 Speaker 1: as a witch, she lit some items on fire, set 1284 00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:39,239 Speaker 1: the porch on fire. Now, I don't know too many 1285 00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 1: people who have a sign in their yard that says 1286 00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:43,799 Speaker 1: which is welcome? Unless it's Halloween. Was just a sign 1287 00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:46,520 Speaker 1: that's been up since Halloween? Was there even really a sign? 1288 00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:49,240 Speaker 1: And even though the sign says which is welcome? Welcome 1289 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:49,480 Speaker 1: to do? 1290 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:49,640 Speaker 4: What? 1291 00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:52,440 Speaker 1: Now? Did the sign say you're welcome to commit arson? 1292 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:54,840 Speaker 1: Was it a fire sign? Meaning she was in aries 1293 00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:58,120 Speaker 1: Leo Sagittarius. All I'm simply wondering is Jess, do you 1294 00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:00,760 Speaker 1: think this woman needs some type of mental health counseling 1295 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:05,520 Speaker 1: or does she need an exorcism? Before you answer, would 1296 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:07,800 Speaker 1: you like to see her picture? Would you like to 1297 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:13,040 Speaker 1: see her picture? Nick zoom in on this? Oh? Okay, okay, 1298 00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:14,040 Speaker 1: oh wow? 1299 00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:21,600 Speaker 2: Mentally ill and inorism, Yeah, because she's gonna need therapy 1300 00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:23,040 Speaker 2: after to get the demon out of them. 1301 00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:26,359 Speaker 1: Is there a difference between demonic possession and mental disorder? See, 1302 00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:29,000 Speaker 1: some of y'all need a psychotherapist, but some of y'all 1303 00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:32,480 Speaker 1: need an exorcist. Okay, And that's the problem. That's the 1304 00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:36,080 Speaker 1: issue we don't discuss enough, and that's demonic possession. You know. 1305 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:38,279 Speaker 1: I encourage y'all to go to therapy all the time, 1306 00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:40,359 Speaker 1: but some of y'all don't just need a therapist. Y'all 1307 00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:43,920 Speaker 1: actually need an exorcist. Okay. We love to say that 1308 00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:46,040 Speaker 1: ain't nothing but the devil, but y'all don't even know 1309 00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:48,440 Speaker 1: what the devil looks like.

Look. See, 1314 00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:08,960 Speaker 1: when you dance with the devil, the devil does not alternate. 1315 00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:12,160 Speaker 1: The devil changes you.

But Lord, you had me at the 1359 00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:31,040 Speaker 1: White House last night that Juneteenth.

You should tell all of them 1362 00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:36,120 Speaker 1: people that love to be on the hill to come 1363 00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:38,320 Speaker 1: with you in the hood. Now you actually, really, you 1364 00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:40,840 Speaker 1: actually be out here touching the people and having conversations 1365 00:59:40,880 --> 00:59:43,280 Speaker 1: with people, so you know what people are actually talking 1366 00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:45,560 Speaker 1: about the same people that they claim to be speaking 1367 00:59:45,720 --> 00:59:48,400 Speaker 1: for they don't speak too. It's real. I mean, I 1368 00:59:48,440 --> 00:59:50,880 Speaker 1: don't think we can deny that in any capacity. I 1369 00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 1: mean the things in which we hear in our communities, 1370 00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:55,200 Speaker 1: and again, I'm glad you all have us up here. 1371 00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:58,360 Speaker 1: We're talking about one hundred black men, our sixteen city tour, 1372 00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:00,520 Speaker 1: real men vote, where we're going to through all these 1373 01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:02,920 Speaker 1: different cities, talking to black men about the importance of 1374 01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:05,840 Speaker 1: voting and then being engaged. And literally we're hearing the 1375 01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:08,479 Speaker 1: exact same things, not only that you all are saying 1376 01:00:08,520 --> 01:00:11,160 Speaker 1: here on the radio, but things in which some people think, 1377 01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:14,360 Speaker 1: oh that's just crazy, Like no, brothers and sisters for 1378 01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:17,920 Speaker 1: that matter, are really believing these things. And we have 1379 01:00:18,040 --> 01:00:21,040 Speaker 1: to do collectively a better job of educating our communities 1380 01:00:21,080 --> 01:00:24,000 Speaker 1: in terms of just really what happens in voting on 1381 01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:27,080 Speaker 1: the local, state, federal level. I saw Jasmine up here 1382 01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:30,480 Speaker 1: the other day, and I really appreciate the way in 1383 01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:33,360 Speaker 1: which she breaks down things, and we need more of that, 1384 01:00:33,560 --> 01:00:36,280 Speaker 1: just real truth telling. And because we're not being as 1385 01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:39,600 Speaker 1: honest as we should be in communicating and conveying our 1386 01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:43,760 Speaker 1: message in a way to people who don't have doctorates 1387 01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:46,240 Speaker 1: or they don't have law degrees, I think there's a 1388 01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:49,000 Speaker 1: lot of misinformation that's going out and then people are 1389 01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:52,120 Speaker 1: just more easy and acceptable or susceptible rather to the misinformation. 1390 01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:54,480 Speaker 1: And I think right now the thing that frustrates so 1391 01:00:54,600 --> 01:00:58,640 Speaker 1: many people is once again it feels like we're voting 1392 01:00:58,760 --> 01:01:01,560 Speaker 1: out of fear. By the way, this is probably the 1393 01:01:01,640 --> 01:01:05,080 Speaker 1: one time in my whole existence that we absolutely have 1394 01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:08,200 Speaker 1: a reason to be truly scared about the end of democracy. 1395 01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:10,560 Speaker 1: But they've been saying this for so long, it's like 1396 01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:13,520 Speaker 1: now all they're offering once again is fear, right, right, 1397 01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:17,400 Speaker 1: Like huh yeah, I mean, I think that's part of 1398 01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:20,360 Speaker 1: the issue, that using fear and scared tactics as a 1399 01:01:20,440 --> 01:01:22,200 Speaker 1: way to get people to be able to go and 1400 01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:24,320 Speaker 1: do quote unquote what they believe to be the right thing. 1401 01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:27,960 Speaker 1: After so long, you just become, you know, become numb 1402 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:32,440 Speaker 1: to it. But I do believe, honestly, and I'm being 1403 01:01:32,600 --> 01:01:35,640 Speaker 1: very candid, that democracy, as you've often alluded to, is 1404 01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:39,000 Speaker 1: under attack. And I think that not just democracy is 1405 01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 1: under attack, like our traditional or quote unquote regular way 1406 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:48,760 Speaker 1: of being could really be jeopardized if collectively all of 1407 01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:50,800 Speaker 1: our communities, not just black folk, but all of our 1408 01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:54,000 Speaker 1: communities don't go out and vote our best interests and 1409 01:01:54,160 --> 01:01:56,800 Speaker 1: not vote misinformation, but again vote our best interests. And 1410 01:01:56,880 --> 01:01:59,120 Speaker 1: my position is, like again, what we're doing with the 1411 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:01,200 Speaker 1: hundred black men and real men vote toward talking to 1412 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:04,280 Speaker 1: brothers about again, like why we have to be engaged 1413 01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:07,560 Speaker 1: and more than anything else, yo, you can't afford to 1414 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:10,000 Speaker 1: just pretend is if things are just okay. And I 1415 01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:12,680 Speaker 1: know that we don't always see the transitions in the 1416 01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:15,760 Speaker 1: change from administration to administration to impact in the hood, 1417 01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:17,800 Speaker 1: but that's also why we got to be engaged on 1418 01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:20,400 Speaker 1: the local level and encourage brothers to run for office 1419 01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:21,240 Speaker 1: for that matter. 1420 01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:24,240 Speaker 5: What do you tell to somebody who does not necessarily 1421 01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:27,080 Speaker 5: like Donald Trump, but he also does not like Joe Biden? 1422 01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:27,520 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? 1423 01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:29,240 Speaker 5: And that's what we're seeing a lot of right, they're 1424 01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:32,000 Speaker 5: not happy with the things that Joe Biden does in 1425 01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:34,280 Speaker 5: the last four years, and they don't like Trump. 1426 01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:36,560 Speaker 1: So it's like, what do you tell those individuals when 1427 01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:39,080 Speaker 1: in four Americans have an unfavorable view of both presidents 1428 01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:41,920 Speaker 1: of both presidents. So me personally, I say, Yo, it's 1429 01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:44,160 Speaker 1: not just about the people who are quote unquote and 1430 01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:46,720 Speaker 1: the presidency. Like we have to talk about who's being 1431 01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:50,080 Speaker 1: appointed to Supreme Court justice, who's being appointed to the 1432 01:02:50,160 --> 01:02:54,000 Speaker 1: federal justices. Excuse me, I'm the appillate courts, who's being 1433 01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:56,680 Speaker 1: able to have access to these state houses because parties 1434 01:02:56,720 --> 01:02:59,200 Speaker 1: do play a major role. And then in addition to that, 1435 01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:01,760 Speaker 1: when we talk about economics and resources being able to 1436 01:03:01,840 --> 01:03:04,520 Speaker 1: be to flow through our communities, whether that be the 1437 01:03:04,600 --> 01:03:06,600 Speaker 1: creation of black businesses and having the capital to be 1438 01:03:06,640 --> 01:03:08,480 Speaker 1: able to start your black business, to be able to 1439 01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:11,400 Speaker 1: maintain your black business, Like, all of those things are 1440 01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:15,160 Speaker 1: mandated into a certain extent going to be supported based 1441 01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:19,840 Speaker 1: off of who you elect in this presidential election. And Yo, 1442 01:03:20,040 --> 01:03:22,160 Speaker 1: you can go and say you like whoever you don't like, 1443 01:03:22,440 --> 01:03:25,520 Speaker 1: but again I always encourage people vote for your best interests. 1444 01:03:25,920 --> 01:03:29,360 Speaker 1: And then in the congressional seats, which we have a 1445 01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:32,240 Speaker 1: ton of different seats up this year. Send it side 1446 01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:36,520 Speaker 1: on the House of Representative side. Congress is really who 1447 01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:39,240 Speaker 1: pushes things through and if we need resources, if we 1448 01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:42,479 Speaker 1: know we need resources, then there's no reason why again 1449 01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:45,320 Speaker 1: we should be voting for people or persons who have 1450 01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:50,440 Speaker 1: outwardly said they care very little about how we improve 1451 01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:53,320 Speaker 1: as a people. When I look at the you know, 1452 01:03:53,520 --> 01:03:56,480 Speaker 1: this is just me talking as one representative, as one individual. Now, 1453 01:03:56,920 --> 01:03:59,040 Speaker 1: when I look at the Platinum Plan, the two page 1454 01:03:59,080 --> 01:04:01,560 Speaker 1: Platinum Plan that that Donald Trump put forth a couple 1455 01:04:01,600 --> 01:04:04,439 Speaker 1: of years ago, and I haven't seen thus far, because 1456 01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:07,560 Speaker 1: I'm an independent, I haven't seen thus far Trump bring 1457 01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:12,000 Speaker 1: forth any kind of plan or action plan for Black America, 1458 01:04:12,280 --> 01:04:14,240 Speaker 1: whether that be on the economic side, whether that be 1459 01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:17,720 Speaker 1: on the educational side, whether that be freedom and justice, 1460 01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:22,000 Speaker 1: whether that be just criminal justice, reform, healthcare, women's rights, 1461 01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:24,280 Speaker 1: so on and so forth. We haven't seen any plan. 1462 01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:27,520 Speaker 1: So to me, it's very simple when we look at 1463 01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:29,960 Speaker 1: who we should vote for. But I understand it whether 1464 01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:31,920 Speaker 1: or not they will either the lead got pushed and 1465 01:04:31,960 --> 01:04:34,160 Speaker 1: then came whether to lift every voice in the plan, 1466 01:04:35,280 --> 01:04:43,480 Speaker 1: I'm not even yeah, I mean, yeah, but you ain't 1467 01:04:43,480 --> 01:04:47,360 Speaker 1: got to say it like the day. You see what 1468 01:04:47,400 --> 01:04:49,440 Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's what that's the problem, right, that is 1469 01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:52,760 Speaker 1: the plan. So it's just as it sounds just as 1470 01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:55,080 Speaker 1: ridiculous as the Platinum plan to lift every voice and 1471 01:04:55,120 --> 01:05:03,520 Speaker 1: sing every Lift voice. But this song is what I'm saying. 1472 01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:06,400 Speaker 1: This is what I'm talking about now, and then I'm 1473 01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:08,920 Speaker 1: gonna get the calls after this, yoe. But here the 1474 01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:11,360 Speaker 1: think I'm not that far off. No, like Lift, every 1475 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:14,520 Speaker 1: voice playing is the same difference. But I think, but 1476 01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:16,760 Speaker 1: I think there is a fundamental difference. So the names 1477 01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:19,240 Speaker 1: may be, you know, they the names of the bills 1478 01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:21,880 Speaker 1: can be what they are, but the substance of the 1479 01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:24,640 Speaker 1: two are very different. And and again for me, like 1480 01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:27,560 Speaker 1: I'm not a quote unquote Biden apologist, but when I 1481 01:05:27,640 --> 01:05:30,360 Speaker 1: look at them putting billions of dollars into student loan 1482 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:34,760 Speaker 1: debt relief, as an individual who just got his student loans, uh, 1483 01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:37,240 Speaker 1: you got a lot rights down too. Yeah, two hundred 1484 01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:39,200 Speaker 1: and eight thousand dollars. Wow, you know what I'm saying. 1485 01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:41,120 Speaker 1: And I mean, even if you think about that there 1486 01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:43,440 Speaker 1: in itself, I would have got three degrees, all three 1487 01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:46,480 Speaker 1: of my degrees from HBCUs. Shout out to South Carolina State, 1488 01:05:46,600 --> 01:05:49,760 Speaker 1: Mama Mater and Virginia State where I got my masters 1489 01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:52,000 Speaker 1: of my doctorate and where'm the political science department chair now, 1490 01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:54,040 Speaker 1: shout out the envy for coming to state last year, 1491 01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:56,280 Speaker 1: to Virginia State last year. Yeah, come and talk to 1492 01:05:56,360 --> 01:05:57,960 Speaker 1: the students. But like you know, again, for me to 1493 01:05:58,000 --> 01:05:59,760 Speaker 1: get three degrees, it cost me two hundred and eight 1494 01:05:59,760 --> 01:06:03,200 Speaker 1: thousan dollars. Like that's ridiculous there in itself. And the 1495 01:06:03,280 --> 01:06:05,320 Speaker 1: fact that you have so many persons on the right 1496 01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:10,200 Speaker 1: actively saying, Yo, there should be no student loan relief, 1497 01:06:10,640 --> 01:06:13,680 Speaker 1: it's crazy when we know the biggest benefactors of student 1498 01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:18,040 Speaker 1: loan relief are black volk So again, vote your interests. Now, 1499 01:06:18,120 --> 01:06:19,720 Speaker 1: there will be people who say, like, well, nah, you 1500 01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:22,479 Speaker 1: chose to take on that student loan debt. And that's true, 1501 01:06:22,840 --> 01:06:27,440 Speaker 1: but education shouldn't cost that much no matter what. And again, 1502 01:06:27,480 --> 01:06:29,840 Speaker 1: when we're talking about specifically, when I'm talking to brothers 1503 01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:32,560 Speaker 1: around the country about yo, vote your interests, you're voting 1504 01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:35,400 Speaker 1: for not just yourself, but for your children, your grandchildren, 1505 01:06:35,680 --> 01:06:38,520 Speaker 1: your little cousins, your mentees, whomever. I wouldn't invite you 1506 01:06:38,560 --> 01:06:43,000 Speaker 1: to go to Hampton, but I would, I wouldn't. No, Nah, 1507 01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:45,120 Speaker 1: it's love, it's love. But you know again, man, we 1508 01:06:45,240 --> 01:06:47,040 Speaker 1: have to vote our interests and that's important. 1509 01:06:47,360 --> 01:06:49,360 Speaker 5: We got more with doctor Wes Bellamy. When we come back, 1510 01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:50,560 Speaker 5: don't move. It's to Breakfast Club. 1511 01:06:50,600 --> 01:06:54,160 Speaker 1: Good morning morning. Everybody is dj n V, Jesse Lyris 1512 01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:54,960 Speaker 1: Charalamaine the God. 1513 01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:56,840 Speaker 5: We are to Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with 1514 01:06:56,920 --> 01:06:59,640 Speaker 5: doctor Wes Bellamy. Yes, sir, let's talk about the documentary. 1515 01:06:59,640 --> 01:07:01,680 Speaker 5: Why is it documentary so important to make and for 1516 01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:02,360 Speaker 5: people to see? 1517 01:07:02,560 --> 01:07:06,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, yeah, time to yell more than a statue 1518 01:07:06,640 --> 01:07:09,520 Speaker 1: really telling the story of I think Charlottesville in some 1519 01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:11,880 Speaker 1: regards have become a hashtag. People are like, yo, that's 1520 01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:14,920 Speaker 1: the place where those crazy white people came with tiki torches. 1521 01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:17,280 Speaker 1: But there's a lot more to it. I mean, we 1522 01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:21,479 Speaker 1: had some very strong people within our community, black women, 1523 01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:25,080 Speaker 1: specifically a shout out to my little sister, Zaiana Bryant. 1524 01:07:25,480 --> 01:07:28,280 Speaker 1: She was fourteen years old writing a petition. You know 1525 01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:29,920 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, saying, Yo, we got to get these 1526 01:07:29,960 --> 01:07:35,200 Speaker 1: statues removed. People like Tanisha Hudson, you know, mayor and Nikayawaker. 1527 01:07:35,240 --> 01:07:37,680 Speaker 1: Our first black female mayor. We had white people like 1528 01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:40,960 Speaker 1: Kristin Sekos. You know, there was a lot of people 1529 01:07:41,480 --> 01:07:44,600 Speaker 1: within our community who rallied together for us to be 1530 01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:47,680 Speaker 1: able to do something in my personal opinion, that was monumental. 1531 01:07:47,760 --> 01:07:51,360 Speaker 1: And then subsequently we saw across the country people using 1532 01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:54,680 Speaker 1: literally our resolutions, like we had an elected officials group 1533 01:07:54,760 --> 01:07:57,080 Speaker 1: chat and people like, yo, we'll send me that resolution, 1534 01:07:57,520 --> 01:08:00,400 Speaker 1: and them getting their statues removed. And I think like 1535 01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:03,080 Speaker 1: the power of quote unquote hate and even what we're 1536 01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:06,280 Speaker 1: seeing right now with the far right movements and people 1537 01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:09,240 Speaker 1: just being blatantly racist, like them coming to Charlottesville and 1538 01:08:09,320 --> 01:08:12,280 Speaker 1: saying like, like with signs that Wes Bellamy, We're gonna 1539 01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:15,720 Speaker 1: hang your black mass or like people come in and 1540 01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:19,559 Speaker 1: saying like we're gonna destroy and kill anybody who fights 1541 01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:21,679 Speaker 1: back against us as you try to move these statues, 1542 01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:24,479 Speaker 1: and in the community saying like, nah, we're not having that. 1543 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:27,040 Speaker 1: We're gonna stand up, We're gonna speak up. It's a 1544 01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:29,040 Speaker 1: powerful story, and you know, rest in peace to the 1545 01:08:29,400 --> 01:08:32,639 Speaker 1: young sister the Hire who actually was killed on August twelfth. 1546 01:08:33,479 --> 01:08:35,439 Speaker 1: I met her mom before met a mom, so so 1547 01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:37,320 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, like when people, when people 1548 01:08:37,400 --> 01:08:40,800 Speaker 1: lose their life fighting for this, and then again you 1549 01:08:40,920 --> 01:08:43,519 Speaker 1: see the power and the beauty of people coming together 1550 01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:46,599 Speaker 1: to say, yo, we're gonna fight back. We firmly believe 1551 01:08:46,640 --> 01:08:49,000 Speaker 1: that right now, more than any time, it's a story 1552 01:08:49,080 --> 01:08:50,880 Speaker 1: to be told. And if you want to vote for 1553 01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:53,240 Speaker 1: the dude who said it's very fine, people on both 1554 01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:56,000 Speaker 1: sides after people try to like kill me, kill my family, 1555 01:08:56,160 --> 01:08:59,479 Speaker 1: kill you know, people actually kill someone, and I think 1556 01:08:59,520 --> 01:09:01,560 Speaker 1: you need to think twice. Do you feel like the 1557 01:09:01,640 --> 01:09:04,439 Speaker 1: events of Charlottesville is spoken about enough? I think it 1558 01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:07,479 Speaker 1: depends on who you ask. I think again, for a 1559 01:09:07,520 --> 01:09:10,160 Speaker 1: long time, we were more so like a hashtag, and 1560 01:09:10,240 --> 01:09:12,040 Speaker 1: we really want to show again at our community as 1561 01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:14,599 Speaker 1: much more than that. When you talk about spoken of enough, 1562 01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:18,160 Speaker 1: For me, it doesn't really matter how people quote unquote 1563 01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:20,599 Speaker 1: speak of it or speak of us. I firmly believe 1564 01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:22,080 Speaker 1: that it's just important to do the work. But I 1565 01:09:22,160 --> 01:09:24,240 Speaker 1: do think it's important for us to tell our story, 1566 01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:26,639 Speaker 1: and there's a multitude of stories that could be told. 1567 01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:29,439 Speaker 1: This documentary is really just telling it from my lens. 1568 01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:31,360 Speaker 1: But there there are several people, as I alluded to, 1569 01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:34,680 Speaker 1: you know, Zi and Nakaya and Tunisha, and you know 1570 01:09:34,960 --> 01:09:38,160 Speaker 1: Charles Lewis and Will Jones, who's in the dock. You know, 1571 01:09:38,240 --> 01:09:40,360 Speaker 1: he started a run club. We started this prolific run club. 1572 01:09:40,360 --> 01:09:43,120 Speaker 1: Like it's a multitude of people and it's all intertwined, 1573 01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:47,120 Speaker 1: and we're telling our own story, you know, and and 1574 01:09:47,240 --> 01:09:50,640 Speaker 1: for us, you know, excuse me for me. Rather, I 1575 01:09:50,760 --> 01:09:54,640 Speaker 1: think that you can have black folk Hill in that 1576 01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:57,760 Speaker 1: particular way, you can have white folk Hill in that 1577 01:09:57,840 --> 01:10:00,519 Speaker 1: particular way. And we don't always. I have to quote 1578 01:10:00,560 --> 01:10:03,240 Speaker 1: unquote strive for unity. Like my thing is, let's strive 1579 01:10:03,360 --> 01:10:05,920 Speaker 1: for respect, because if I respect you, then I won't 1580 01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:07,960 Speaker 1: do any harm towards you. And if I won't do 1581 01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:10,600 Speaker 1: any harm towards you, then I can value you and 1582 01:10:10,720 --> 01:10:13,519 Speaker 1: we can move forward accordingly. And I think that's kind 1583 01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:16,200 Speaker 1: of what we get across in this documentary. You're gonna 1584 01:10:16,200 --> 01:10:18,599 Speaker 1: see brothers in the hood playing like in my basketball league, 1585 01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:20,679 Speaker 1: the TONSA League. You're gonna see white people and black 1586 01:10:20,680 --> 01:10:23,840 Speaker 1: people running together. You gonna see some really contentious moments 1587 01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:25,920 Speaker 1: and of people, you know, getting it in and arguing 1588 01:10:25,960 --> 01:10:28,639 Speaker 1: and fighting. But more than anything, we come out on top. 1589 01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:31,920 Speaker 1: What is some some truths that black people need to 1590 01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:35,120 Speaker 1: know before casting their vote in November because I you know, 1591 01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:38,400 Speaker 1: and we had a good assistant Congresswoman and Crockett up here, 1592 01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:41,639 Speaker 1: and I was telling her about one of my mentees 1593 01:10:41,760 --> 01:10:46,160 Speaker 1: in Georgia who was watching her speak, and you know, 1594 01:10:46,520 --> 01:10:50,920 Speaker 1: Congresswoman Crockett said, hey, y'all should go google what this 1595 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:53,479 Speaker 1: administration is done. That's why y'all don't know what they've done, 1596 01:10:53,560 --> 01:10:58,560 Speaker 1: because it's so much. And I'm like, that's not good messaging, you. 1597 01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:02,240 Speaker 1: I gotta go google line it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I 1598 01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:04,679 Speaker 1: mean it's real like and let me be clear again, y'all, 1599 01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:07,440 Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not a surrogate of the administration. 1600 01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:09,000 Speaker 7: You know. 1601 01:11:09,080 --> 01:11:11,840 Speaker 1: Shout out to my man Trey Baker and and Antoine 1602 01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:15,240 Speaker 1: c Right and you know, and even Congressman Clyodburn, they know, 1603 01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:17,120 Speaker 1: like I send a message quick like yo, this is 1604 01:11:17,160 --> 01:11:19,280 Speaker 1: some boy what y'all y'all want some. But I do 1605 01:11:19,400 --> 01:11:21,439 Speaker 1: again believe in given credit what credit is due, like 1606 01:11:21,520 --> 01:11:26,120 Speaker 1: the fact that the Biden administration has has meticulously and 1607 01:11:26,160 --> 01:11:30,880 Speaker 1: strategically provided billions of dollars for not only student loan relief, 1608 01:11:31,200 --> 01:11:34,040 Speaker 1: but provided uh, you know, over like two hundred million 1609 01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:37,400 Speaker 1: dollars for black businesses to be skilled. I think that 1610 01:11:37,560 --> 01:11:40,120 Speaker 1: there in itself is huge when we look at housing 1611 01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:43,439 Speaker 1: and affordable housing, the work that you know, former Secretary 1612 01:11:43,600 --> 01:11:46,120 Speaker 1: Marsha Fudge was doing in terms of the voucher system, 1613 01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:48,559 Speaker 1: like I currently serve as the chair of our Housing 1614 01:11:48,600 --> 01:11:53,200 Speaker 1: Authority Board, and like the HOOD, they've been doing some 1615 01:11:53,320 --> 01:11:55,919 Speaker 1: good work in terms of being able to get resources 1616 01:11:55,960 --> 01:11:58,880 Speaker 1: back in the hood and empower our people and not 1617 01:11:58,960 --> 01:12:01,880 Speaker 1: only rib in public housing, but get out of public 1618 01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:03,920 Speaker 1: housing home ownership. 1619 01:12:04,040 --> 01:12:04,080 Speaker 4: Like. 1620 01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:07,280 Speaker 1: They have tons of programs in that regard. I would say, 1621 01:12:07,320 --> 01:12:09,479 Speaker 1: you know, the list does go on and on, but 1622 01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:13,360 Speaker 1: it's not up to us quote unquote to tell those stories. 1623 01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:16,720 Speaker 1: So when you ask me, like, what are some real truths, yo, 1624 01:12:17,320 --> 01:12:21,799 Speaker 1: the administration has to do a better job, point Plank. Simple. 1625 01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:25,160 Speaker 1: You look at the Republican side, yo, whether it may 1626 01:12:25,240 --> 01:12:27,560 Speaker 1: not be a lot of substance, they gonna ride for 1627 01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:30,679 Speaker 1: what they're doing and talk about the work in which 1628 01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:32,800 Speaker 1: they believe in which they're doing or what they're fighting against. 1629 01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:34,680 Speaker 1: It's usually not what they're doing, but it's about what 1630 01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:37,479 Speaker 1: they're fighting against. I don't necessarily always see that on 1631 01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:40,719 Speaker 1: the Democratic side, or I'll say that it doesn't receive 1632 01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:43,240 Speaker 1: the same amount of attention because it's the way it's delivered, 1633 01:12:44,200 --> 01:12:46,560 Speaker 1: sucks it's asked.
