You 0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:51.800 took away our accessibility to vote. 0:01:51.840 --> 0:01:53.680 You took away our accessibility to vote. 0:01:53.760 --> 0:01:55.760 You took away our accessibility to vote. 0:01:56.040 --> 0:01:58.919 All the benefit. Virginia Fox, Virginia Fox. 0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:03.080 But you will see us and you will feel us. 0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:05.160 But you will see us, and you will feel. 0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:06.440 Us, and you will feel us. 0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:08.680 I'm kyer Creek Moore and I'm running for the US 0:02:08.760 --> 0:02:10.400 House in North Carolina's fifth Congression. 0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:11.400 Editar join the. 0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:14.800 Movement, Shatay said, not only take our bowling site. But 0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:16.880 we gonna run somebody for office against you. I love 0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:17.880 to see it. WHI y'all got? 0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:21.800 I mean it's somebody who Yeah, somebody who ran when 0:02:21.800 --> 0:02:23.680 they were twenty one years old. I'm all four. And 0:02:23.800 --> 0:02:26.800 people are afraid of young people. Every college campus I 0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:29.240 go to, I ask one question of everybody when I speak, 0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:31.519 I say, is there a polling site on your campus? 0:02:31.919 --> 0:02:35.360 And most elected officials are deathly afraid of having young 0:02:35.400 --> 0:02:37.560 people have polling sites on their campus because they know 0:02:37.560 --> 0:02:39.320 they're going to show up and show out. And so 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:41.560 Kyle Creek Moore, let me know when we knocking on 0:02:41.639 --> 0:02:43.760 doors what we need to do, brother, because I appreciate 0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:45.640 your energy, and I appreciate the way that you are 0:02:45.680 --> 0:02:50.520 mobilizing young people. In the mind frame of another North 0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:54.000 Carolina Anti State University grad, none other than Jesse Jackson. 0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:57.640 Love it, love it, Okay, We're gonna move right along. 0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:00.480 Then to last week, In a two hundred eighteen, two 0:03:00.560 --> 0:03:03.000 hundred and thirteen roll called vote, the United States House 0:03:03.000 --> 0:03:07.000 of Representatives passed the Save Act for a second time. 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:11.519 The bill, which requires ID and proof of citizenship and 0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:14.240 proof of citizenship, let's be clear, now makes its way 0:03:14.280 --> 0:03:17.000 to the Senate, despite the fact that it is already 0:03:17.040 --> 0:03:19.800 illegal for non citizens to vote. According to the League 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:23.360 of Women Voters, compared to white US citizens, citizens of 0:03:23.440 --> 0:03:27.639 color are three times more likely to lack documents such 0:03:27.680 --> 0:03:32.880 as birth certificates, passports, naturalization certificates, or certificates of citizenship 0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:37.280 or face difficulties accessing them. For example, while approximately half 0:03:37.280 --> 0:03:41.240 of all American adults possess a passport, two thirds of 0:03:41.360 --> 0:03:44.920 black Americans do not. Senator Chris Murphy had something to 0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:46.920 say about the Save Act coming to the Senate. 0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:47.520 Let's roll it. 0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:51.080 So Republicans have this bill to Save Act. It just 0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:53.760 passed the House of Representatives, it's on its way to 0:03:53.800 --> 0:03:56.520 the Senate, and it stands for one thing. They're trying 0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:59.960 to stop your right to vote. Republicans believe that Donald 0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:03.560 Trump won the twenty twenty election, and frankly, they believe 0:04:03.640 --> 0:04:07.360 that anytime a Democrat wins an election it must be 0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:11.800 because of fraud. They have no evidence of that claim 0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:15.880 because it's made up. The fact of the matter is, 0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:20.800 our elections in this country are wildly clean. There are 0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:26.520 very few, if any, actual cases of fraud in most elections, 0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:28.960 and when you find them, it's on the margins, one 0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:30.840 or two people that shouldn't have voted here or there. 0:04:30.880 --> 0:04:33.039 But Republicans want you to want you to believe that 0:04:33.120 --> 0:04:34.080 this is an epidemic. 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:34.559 It isn't. 0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:36.960 But what they really want to do is just stop 0:04:37.000 --> 0:04:39.600 you from voting. So they're going to use this claim 0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:43.400 that there's fraud in our elections to pass the Save Act, 0:04:43.680 --> 0:04:46.960 which will make it way harder for you to vote. 0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:49.840 One of the things the Save Act does is to 0:04:49.960 --> 0:04:55.760 require your birth certificate to have your existing name on it. Well, 0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:59.400 for a lot of married women, your birth certificate right 0:04:59.480 --> 0:05:04.279 doesn't have have your married name, and so millions of 0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:08.080 women in this country are basically disqualified from voting. It 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:12.159 requires you to produce when you register a birth certificate 0:05:12.360 --> 0:05:15.080 or a passport. We don't do that now, and that's 0:05:15.080 --> 0:05:18.960 how millions of Americans registered to vote online. But now 0:05:19.320 --> 0:05:24.000 online registration may be completely eliminated. The bill requires states 0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:29.200 every thirty days to purge their voter files of people, 0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:31.960 for instance, who haven't voted in a while. So if 0:05:31.960 --> 0:05:34.760 you're just busy and you haven't voted in the last 0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:37.760 couple elections, you might show up to vote in the 0:05:37.760 --> 0:05:41.200 next presidential election. And your name's gone because what they're 0:05:41.240 --> 0:05:44.520 trying to do is just take you off the rolls. 0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:47.520 This is absurd. It's all built on a lie that 0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:53.000 elections are being stolen by some cabal of Democrats and 0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:56.960 Nicholas Maduro and George Soros and whoever else. But it's 0:05:57.040 --> 0:05:59.320 really all about just trying to stop you from being 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:01.479 able to vote. That's why we have to stop the 0:06:01.480 --> 0:06:05.240 Save Act in the United States Senate. That's what I'm 0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:08.520 going to be working on over the next couple of weeks. 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:11.480 What do y'all have on that one? 0:06:11.640 --> 0:06:14.840 Yeah, I think we're one step away from how many 0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:19.080 bubbles are in a soap bar, that we're making the 0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:23.159 electric slide backwards. And I think it's apropos that you 0:06:23.240 --> 0:06:26.039 look at the infringement because of all of the things 0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:29.840 bocard that people will talk about Revend Jackson, is that 0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:33.160 what should not be discounted was the numbers of people 0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:37.880 organized to register the vote in four and eighty eight. 0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:43.520 It pulled in a hailstorm of black elected officials around 0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:48.000 the country who were elected because of his mobilization. And 0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:51.520 I want to hinge a wagon on the first clip 0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:54.760 is we spend a lot of energy around voter registration 0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:58.760 and get out the vote, and not enough energy preparing 0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:02.160 people to run for office. So for what that young 0:07:02.200 --> 0:07:05.080 student is doing in North Carolina, I'm excited and I 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:06.480 hope that it catches on. 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:09.640 Yeah, I just I couldn't agree with you more regudd 0:07:09.720 --> 0:07:13.520 the first clip training up and also just helping people 0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:17.960 get in touch with their ideological belief system, like what 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.120 do we stand for? What are we trying to do? 0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:23.960 What do we want to have changed by way of 0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:25.960 us having served? What do we want to be different 0:07:26.120 --> 0:07:31.280 as a result of this save Act is really it's 0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:33.560 not a problem in search of a solution. It's a 0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:37.120 solution in search of a problem. It'd be one thing 0:07:37.200 --> 0:07:42.600 if we had tens of thousands, even thousands of people 0:07:42.880 --> 0:07:45.480 or votes rather after each election being determined to have 0:07:45.520 --> 0:07:48.880 been illegally cast. But in most cases it's not even 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:51.840 that the vote. That that a person has voted illegally 0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:55.120 is that they have inadvertently registered to vote or have 0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:57.800 been registered to vote, because many d mbs will put 0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:02.200 you on the rolls should you sign the consent, and 0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:06.080 people find themselves unaware that they had gotten registered and 0:08:06.600 --> 0:08:10.120 may later learn that they were not legally registered. Most 0:08:10.160 --> 0:08:17.360 the issues around votes in illegal voting taking place is 0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:21.080 caught at the registration process, and even there there are 0:08:21.080 --> 0:08:24.440 not significant numbers. So we're talking about a few hundred 0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:27.480 votes in the entire country over the last ten years 0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:32.040 were later determined to have been of votes cast that 0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:35.680 should not have been cast, and in truth, not enough 0:08:35.679 --> 0:08:38.400 to change the outcome of the election almost anywhere, not 0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:42.480 enough to change the outcome of the election. So this 0:08:42.520 --> 0:08:46.800 is a ruse. This is an attempt to disqualify as 0:08:46.880 --> 0:08:50.400 many women because women oftentimes when married changed their last name, 0:08:50.600 --> 0:08:52.880 the birth certificate doesn't match the last name that they 0:08:52.920 --> 0:08:54.960 have now. They then have to write to the government 0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:57.040 in the state in which they were born asked for 0:08:57.080 --> 0:09:00.160 them to produce a birth certificate that then matches. Then 0:09:00.360 --> 0:09:02.680 get with the state Secretary of state or whoever keeps 0:09:02.679 --> 0:09:04.120 documents for the state and the state that they may 0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:06.840 live in and figure out how they make reconciliation of 0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:09.400 all of these different documents. And I don't know about y'all, 0:09:09.440 --> 0:09:12.160 but I tried to get a Social Security card because 0:09:12.160 --> 0:09:15.000 I had misplacedmined and I will tell you I got 0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:18.280 two different cards sent to me with two different middle names. 0:09:18.559 --> 0:09:18.839 Wow. 0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:21.560 Not one of them had the same middle name, and 0:09:21.640 --> 0:09:23.960 so then I had to go physically into the office, 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:26.640 spend hours in waiting rooms until I could see an 0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:29.400 administrator would then work with me because I had requested 0:09:29.400 --> 0:09:31.719 a per certificate as well to then make this document right. 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:34.720 Can you just imagine the burden that we are putting 0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:38.520 on people to frankly address a problem that is not 0:09:38.720 --> 0:09:43.120 a problem. Yeah, So it's a shame, and it's a sham. 0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:45.160 By the way, it's a sham, and it's an intention 0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:46.480 to keep out people from voting. 0:09:47.080 --> 0:09:49.840 Well, speaking of sham, so is the Secretary of the 0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:53.080 Department of Homeland Security. I know you had something for her, 0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:54.280 Andrew Gillum. 0:09:54.120 --> 0:09:57.040 Well, I mean we got a clip of her, y'all. 0:09:57.160 --> 0:10:00.559 You probably may have seen her given commentary about what 0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:08.240 she believes her expanded role as Homeland Security Secretary and 0:10:08.320 --> 0:10:13.040 being over ice and the borders. Listen to what she 0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:14.840 has to say, and then let's try to clarify for 0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:17.839 her what her job responsibilities actually are. 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:22.680 Elections is another one of those critical infrastructure responsibilities that 0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:25.040 I have as well, and I would say that many 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:28.000 people believe that it may be one of the most 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:30.720 important things that we need to make sure we trust 0:10:31.000 --> 0:10:33.640 is reliable and that when it gets to election day, 0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:35.680 that we've been proactive to make sure that we have 0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:38.480 the right people voting, electing the right leaders to lead 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:41.920 this country through the days that we have knowing that 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:42.920 people can trust it. 0:10:43.679 --> 0:10:47.200 Y'all, you know that's loaded, right, So I should let 0:10:47.240 --> 0:10:51.440 y'all go on about the right people voting right, get 0:10:51.440 --> 0:10:54.559 the right people voting to elect the right people. That's 0:10:54.600 --> 0:10:57.720 the Homeland Security secretary who believes that she has been 0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:00.000 invested with the powers of running elections in the countr. 0:11:00.240 --> 0:11:03.079 So here's the fact check. She has not been invested 0:11:03.080 --> 0:11:05.720 with the powers of running elections in the country. She 0:11:05.800 --> 0:11:09.319 has a responsibility in the development of the Department of 0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:12.560 Homeland Security. The Secretary is responsible for what is called 0:11:12.559 --> 0:11:16.200 the continuity of government. Should there be some cataclysmic event 0:11:16.240 --> 0:11:19.840 that takes out the president, the line of succession, a 0:11:19.960 --> 0:11:25.600 nuclear attack, or some other unforeseen circumstance that removes the 0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:30.079 power structure, the federal power structure, they are tasked by 0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:32.920 law to have a continuity of government. What would happen 0:11:32.960 --> 0:11:35.280 in such circumstance that the line of secession is wiped 0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:37.679 and you've got to keep the government running in some 0:11:37.720 --> 0:11:43.120 form or fashion that typically involves bureaucrats, people who know 0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:46.400 how to create these sorts of systems, researchers who produce 0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:50.720 these kinds of medicines and medical research, other administrators. People 0:11:50.720 --> 0:11:53.760 can keep up a basic function of government. Elections, however, 0:11:54.040 --> 0:11:56.120 through the Constitution and through everything where we've been taught 0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:58.520 so far as I know, are is a power that 0:11:58.760 --> 0:12:02.440 is to that of the state, and quite frankly, the 0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:06.360 state then develops that power further down to municipalities, most 0:12:06.400 --> 0:12:09.880 often at the county level. There are over one hundred 0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:13.960 thousand municipalities or governmental functions that are responsible for the 0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:18.560 conducting of any federal election at any particular point in time, 0:12:18.880 --> 0:12:22.200 over one hundred thousand agencies, and each one of them, 0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:25.000 by and large are operating by a different and unique 0:12:25.040 --> 0:12:31.199 set of circumstances, rules, guidelines, with only probably two major 0:12:31.240 --> 0:12:33.559 interventions by the federal government. It was the Save America 0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:36.640 Act and it was something like help America Vote. If 0:12:36.720 --> 0:12:39.439 y'all remember after the two thousand election tobacco, there were 0:12:39.440 --> 0:12:43.920 some guidance given to help states update their counting materials 0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:47.439 on and so forth. So the Secretary again has overstepped 0:12:47.440 --> 0:12:50.480 her boundaries. She has no responsibility for the elections of 0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:54.599 anyone at any level of government, federal, state, local, municipal. 0:12:55.280 --> 0:12:58.880 She's responsible for the continuity of government, which all of 0:12:58.960 --> 0:13:00.640 us out of shutter at the thought of any way. 0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:03.319 But it's generally a document that's passed on from secretary 0:13:03.320 --> 0:13:05.120 to secretary, so hopefy she don't screw around with it, 0:13:05.880 --> 0:13:07.120 somebody else has to hit this. 0:13:09.320 --> 0:13:11.440 Can I throw one fact out there real quick, because Andrew, 0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:14.600 you covered a lot of ground right there. But back 0:13:14.640 --> 0:13:19.600 in November, her office did find that there was one, 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:25.480 as they called them, criminal alien who voted despite not 0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:29.520 being a United States Senate, United States citizen. So in 0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:34.280 the entire election, they found one criminal alien. That's their words, 0:13:34.320 --> 0:13:38.559 not mine. But as it turns out, that person actually 0:13:38.640 --> 0:13:43.040 had a green card and voted for Donald Trump three times. 0:13:43.240 --> 0:13:45.640 So I just want to I just wanted to throw 0:13:45.679 --> 0:13:47.880 that little fact check out there for you. You can't 0:13:47.880 --> 0:13:50.400 make it up, reverend, reverend doctor. I wanted to throw 0:13:50.440 --> 0:13:52.280 that fact check out. There's a New York Times article 0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:54.960 by the one and only Jonathan Carl who went through 0:13:54.960 --> 0:13:57.560 this and profiled how DHS had this huge thing about 0:13:57.559 --> 0:14:00.400 the about the criminal alien who voted multiple times in Kansas. 0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:03.840 He's now being prosecuted by the Kansas Attorney General for 0:14:03.880 --> 0:14:06.520 three counts of voting without being qualified in three counts 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:07.640 of election perjury. 0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:13.040 Well, you said Andrew screwing around, and so speaking of that, 0:14:13.120 --> 0:14:15.120 we're gonna go ahead and filew this next one under 0:14:15.400 --> 0:14:16.560 they doing way too much. 0:14:16.640 --> 0:14:17.439 It's the twenty eight. 0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:21.320 Hundred Olympians who allegedly went through ten thousand condoms and 0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:22.560 it had not yet been a week. 0:14:24.040 --> 0:14:25.960 Happy that sound like that? 0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:31.160 Sound like graves? Hall? 0:14:31.440 --> 0:14:32.040 Hold on? 0:14:32.360 --> 0:14:32.840 Hold on? 0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:36.920 So I want you all to hear with this Olympic 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:40.680 medalist and figure skater, Adam Rippon, who's also a podcaster. 0:14:40.840 --> 0:14:43.280 Now he has an answer to some of our questions 0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:45.360 about how they move in through these condoms. 0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:50.000 What's happening everyone, I'm Adam Rippon, and I have some 0:14:50.120 --> 0:14:52.560 questions that Winter Olympians get asked all the time. 0:14:52.720 --> 0:14:53.720 I'm going to answer them. 0:14:53.840 --> 0:14:57.960 What really goes down in the Olympic village. Well, obviously 0:14:57.960 --> 0:15:01.120 I've heard a lot about the condoms. Who hasn't I 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:04.320 wanted to know where are all these condoms? Well, I 0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:07.600 did eventually find them in the medical tent. Now, in 0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:11.120 my mind it was this like, you know, lavish sort 0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:13.680 of experience, but really it was just like a basket 0:15:13.880 --> 0:15:18.400 filled with condoms that said in Korean generic condom, No 0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:23.720 Olympic rings, no fanfare, no frills. How do the athletes 0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:26.440 go through so many? I'll tell you how I went 0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:29.720 through so many because I took that basket of condoms 0:15:29.800 --> 0:15:31.880 and I opened my backpack and I shoved the whole 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:34.280 maybe three thousand of them in my backpack, and I 0:15:34.320 --> 0:15:37.640 gave those to my friends as souvenirs. I think like 0:15:37.720 --> 0:15:41.520 the real Shenanigans are happening at the summer Games, because 0:15:41.560 --> 0:15:44.280 if you look at those athletes, they're basically naked and 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:46.280 it's warm outside. I don't know what you think you're 0:15:46.280 --> 0:15:49.800 getting into at a cold place, you're in a parka. 0:15:49.960 --> 0:15:51.680 They already set you up so that there's too many 0:15:51.760 --> 0:15:52.680 layers to go through. 0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:57.000 I thought, this is so funny, and I do want 0:15:57.040 --> 0:15:59.400 to just take a moment to shout out the Olympics 0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:02.960 Committee for encouraging safety over everything since nineteen eighty. 0:16:02.720 --> 0:16:08.800 Eight, three thousand. 0:16:09.400 --> 0:16:10.640 They provided them. 0:16:10.680 --> 0:16:14.080 They were they were trying to provide a pathway to 0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:16.160 you know, protection to safety. 0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:21.160 Yeah, well, at least the athletes give free health care. 0:16:20.160 --> 0:16:24.200 So these are overachieve a guys and a whole lot 0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:25.160 of others do not have. 0:16:25.480 --> 0:16:29.000 So these people have been overachieving all their life. Why 0:16:29.080 --> 0:16:33.400 wouldn't they continue to overachieve? You know, the Olympians need 0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:33.800 love too. 0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:36.800 It sound like they still. He then sold thirty thousand 0:16:36.840 --> 0:16:39.040 of them. Talking about he brought took him to his friends. 0:16:38.840 --> 0:16:41.720 Versuon, I wish somebody would get First of all, I've 0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:43.800 never heard of a condom as a supers what I 0:16:43.840 --> 0:16:45.320 was going to say, I wish somebody would give. 0:16:47.880 --> 0:16:49.640 I mean, it sounds like they like that in his 0:16:49.640 --> 0:16:50.120 friend group. 0:16:50.160 --> 0:16:51.880 He said, if I ain't got nothing else to take you, 0:16:51.880 --> 0:16:53.960 it ain't no pins, it ain't no shirts, it ain't 0:16:53.960 --> 0:16:55.000 no He's like, I'll. 0:16:54.840 --> 0:16:55.600 Thank you what I mean? 0:16:55.640 --> 0:16:56.840 And he said they were in Korean. 0:16:57.120 --> 0:17:00.280 Yeah, he said they said condom in Korean, So they're that. 0:17:00.800 --> 0:17:01.080 Well. 0:17:01.600 --> 0:17:03.880 They might try to erase our history, but we make 0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:06.400 more anyway. For the first time in history, five black 0:17:06.440 --> 0:17:10.480 surgeons are leading the trauma unit at Johns Hopkins Medical 0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:14.400 Center in Baltimore. Let's roll this black excellence clip. 0:17:15.000 --> 0:17:18.440 Finally, the doctor is behind a different type of medical breakthrough. 0:17:19.720 --> 0:17:22.880 Take a good look at these five doctors. More than 0:17:22.880 --> 0:17:26.679 a portrait, it's a moment suspended in history. For the 0:17:26.720 --> 0:17:30.840 first time, five African American surgeons now lead the trauma 0:17:30.920 --> 0:17:34.840 service at the pre eminent Johns Hopkins Hospital. Tonight we 0:17:34.920 --> 0:17:38.360 hear from some of the trailblazers behind this historic team. 0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:41.280 My parents are so proud. I am the first physician 0:17:41.320 --> 0:17:44.120 in my family, and I think it's so impactful. 0:17:44.320 --> 0:17:48.560 For doctor Lawrence Brown, medicine is more than science. It's service. 0:17:48.800 --> 0:17:51.760 That's what's important to me. Equity has to remain at 0:17:51.760 --> 0:17:54.520 the forefront of how we deliver patient care, how we 0:17:54.560 --> 0:17:58.080 do research, how we scale programs up in our healthcare system. 0:17:58.280 --> 0:18:01.199 Doctor Zachary Numa is a result of service that was 0:18:01.240 --> 0:18:03.320 modeled and purpose that was inherited. 0:18:03.560 --> 0:18:06.199 Growing up in Columbus, Georgia in the nineteen nineties, I 0:18:06.280 --> 0:18:08.960 watched my parents, my mom a family medicine doc, my 0:18:09.040 --> 0:18:12.320 dad a general surgeon, show up to serve patients every day. 0:18:12.560 --> 0:18:16.000 For doctor E. Fae Sciombo, history isn't just remembered here, 0:18:16.359 --> 0:18:17.520 it's carried forward. 0:18:17.720 --> 0:18:19.880 The best part is that I get to save lives 0:18:19.920 --> 0:18:24.080 and have an impact every single day to anyone who's watching. 0:18:24.359 --> 0:18:28.320 Realize that your dream and capacity can only be limited 0:18:28.359 --> 0:18:32.120 by you, and if you can think it, see it, 0:18:32.359 --> 0:18:34.040 then you can absolutely reach it. 0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:37.880 I love it, proud of them any reflection, y'all. 0:18:39.040 --> 0:18:41.600 I would just say, for those who want to kick 0:18:41.640 --> 0:18:43.840 immigrants out or not let them in the first place, 0:18:43.880 --> 0:18:48.000 I'd be curious. I don't know the places of origin 0:18:48.080 --> 0:18:50.840 for all of the doctors there, but I could I 0:18:50.880 --> 0:18:53.240 think I could see that there were two who probably 0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:58.479 were from the continent or through their lineage with their parents. 0:18:58.960 --> 0:19:03.639 I could tell one by the head scarf representing one 0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:07.040 of an African country. So I just think we've got 0:19:07.080 --> 0:19:09.840 brilliant people who come from all over the world, and 0:19:09.880 --> 0:19:15.080 it's true in every profession. I'm proud of these brothers 0:19:15.119 --> 0:19:17.680 and I, you know, and sister, I wish them well. 0:19:18.440 --> 0:19:21.200 But just think again, when we want to push people 0:19:21.200 --> 0:19:24.000 so quickly out of this country, stop folks and coming in, 0:19:24.080 --> 0:19:29.840 how much this nation has grown, been built, sustained expanded 0:19:30.000 --> 0:19:33.200 by the you know, the teachings, the talents and creativity 0:19:33.200 --> 0:19:34.359 of people from all over the world. 0:19:34.720 --> 0:19:38.240 Let me just remind people who are listening that at 0:19:38.320 --> 0:19:40.280 last checking, I may be off by a half a 0:19:40.359 --> 0:19:42.680 percent or maybe a full percent, but about five five 0:19:42.720 --> 0:19:45.720 and a half percent of all doctors in this country 0:19:45.840 --> 0:19:49.320 are black. That number, because of the actions by the 0:19:49.320 --> 0:19:53.480 Trump administration, by the cowardice of some of these major institutions, 0:19:53.560 --> 0:19:57.960 is going to go down. That is an unfortunate reality 0:19:58.000 --> 0:20:00.800 we face. This is why we have to make sure 0:20:00.800 --> 0:20:03.760 that we're strengthening our HBCUs. Because of that five and 0:20:03.760 --> 0:20:07.640 a half percent, six percent, fifty percent of that number 0:20:08.080 --> 0:20:12.480 have graduated from our historically black colleges and universities. And 0:20:12.520 --> 0:20:13.960 my dad would always say, why are you trying to 0:20:13.960 --> 0:20:16.359 go somewhere where they don't want you anyway? And so 0:20:16.840 --> 0:20:19.520 I just want us to remember, as as young people 0:20:19.520 --> 0:20:22.680 are making these very difficult decisions about college, make sure 0:20:22.680 --> 0:20:25.000 you give the Xaviers of the world, the Florida and 0:20:25.160 --> 0:20:28.480 ms I Guess of the world. The more houses those 0:20:28.520 --> 0:20:32.960 individuals who have a history of producing doctors, give them 0:20:32.960 --> 0:20:34.840 a look. If your child wants to be a doctor, 0:20:34.880 --> 0:20:37.399 And if you're in a lum of that institution, instead 0:20:37.400 --> 0:20:39.520 of writing your five or ten dollars check a month, 0:20:39.880 --> 0:20:42.119 maybe one month, just use your drinking budget, you know, 0:20:42.160 --> 0:20:44.240 write one hundred and fifty dollars check, you know, a 0:20:44.320 --> 0:20:47.640 two hundred and fifty dollars check. And so I think 0:20:47.720 --> 0:20:50.119 that this is a lesson of our excellence, but also 0:20:50.160 --> 0:20:53.640 shows how much we have to you know, Ecclesiastes chapter three, 0:20:53.680 --> 0:20:56.120
