1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: Wake that ass up in the morning. The breakfast Club morning.

2
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:08,079
Speaker 1: Everybody is deej Envy Charlamagne the guy. We are to

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: breakfast Club. It's time for some front page news this morning, though,

4
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:13,040
Speaker 1: we got Tamika Mallory on the line.

5
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,080
Speaker 2: Good morning, Tamika, good morning, good morning.

6
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 3: Not just on the line, Tamika's on the front lines.

7
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 3: Tamika is back in Kentucky, Kentucky. That's right. Why is

8
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 3: our good sister, Tamika Mallory back in Kentucky.

9
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 4: Well, you know, we made a commitment three years ago

10
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:33,639
Speaker 4: to Brionna Taylor's family that we would not just come

11
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 4: out in protest, but that we would continue to work

12
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 4: with the community through all the phases. And we're in

13
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:44,559
Speaker 4: a second phase, if you will, or another phase of

14
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,480
Speaker 4: the fight for justice for her and the community, which

15
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 4: is to stop the man who was the special prosecutor

16
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 4: on the case, who should have secured indictments for the.

17
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 2: Officers who killed Brianna Taylor.

18
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 4: He is the attorney general, the current attorney general of

19
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,960
Speaker 4: the state of Kentucky. His name is Daniel Cameron, and

20
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 4: he is now running for governor, which means he would

21
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 4: receive a promotion for not doing what's necessary to bring

22
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 4: justice to this community and to this family. He has

23
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 4: been very clear that he is a police guy. He's

24
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 4: in fact a black man who is very much so

25
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:30,199
Speaker 4: in support of the police. He is endorsed by Donald Trump,

26
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 4: is something that he uses all over in his campaigns,

27
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 4: you know, ads for his race. He is very close

28
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 4: to Mitch McConnell and in many ways the scene as

29
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 4: a potential successor to Mitch McConnell here in the state

30
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:45,479
Speaker 4: of Kentucky.

31
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 2: And if you look.

32
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 4: At his policies, how he wants to be tough on crime,

33
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 4: which is usually a dog whistle for locking up black

34
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 4: and brown folks and not really trying to provide us

35
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 4: with the resources that we need. You know, he's a

36
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 4: pretty dangerous guy. I would say that he's like the

37
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 4: black cousin of Ron DeSantis, who is the governor of Florida.

38
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 4: And so we are back in Kentucky from now until

39
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 4: November seventh, when his election will happen. Ensuring that people

40
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 4: are one registered to vote and two that they are

41
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 4: very clear about who they're voting for and what this

42
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 4: man is capable of. One of the things in his

43
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 4: twelve point plan that he wants to do if this

44
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 4: helps to sort of draw a picture or paint a

45
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 4: picture of who he is, is to get rid of

46
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 4: civilian complaint review boards. He wants to stop the civilians

47
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 4: from having the authority to sanction police officers when they

48
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 4: do something wrong. Right, he's talking about giving the death

49
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 4: penalty to offenders. He is a very very dangerous man,

50
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 4: and his policies are policies that you're trying to move

51
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 4: away from, and so we don't want him to be

52
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 4: So you know, I have the.

53
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 2: Personal vendetta because of his behavior.

54
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 4: And the Brionna Taylor case, but his policies are also

55
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 4: very dangerous. And the last thing I'll say is, you know,

56
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,119
Speaker 4: if there are some people who believe that we as activists.

57
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 2: And organizers, we just always don't like someone.

58
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 4: But if you go back and look at the time

59
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 4: when the grand jury had been and paneled and they

60
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 4: were meeting in terms of whether they would bring charges

61
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 4: for Brianna Taylor, one of the things that happened at

62
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 4: that time was that after it was over, Daniel Cameron

63
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 4: came forward and said that those jurors did not find

64
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 4: charges for the officers for Brionna Taylor.

65
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 2: Specifically.

66
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 4: In fact, the only charge that came out of that

67
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 4: grand jury was a bullet going through the wall and

68
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 4: how it could have potentially hurt someone on the other side.

69
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 4: The jurors came forward, at least three of them. They

70
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 4: came forward and said that they had never been presented

71
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 4: with charges for Breonna Taylor, that they waited.

72
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 2: Until the end.

73
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 4: They thought they would hear about Brionna Taylor, but they didn't.

74
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 4: So therefore Daniel Cameron live. So not only is he

75
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 4: bad on policy, not only is he a police guy,

76
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 4: but he's also a liar.

77
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 2: And an obstructionist to justice.

78
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 3: I got two more questions to Meikha before we talk

79
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,359
Speaker 3: about You know what I really want you to talk about.

80
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 3: Is there another candidate you all are supporting against Daniel Cameron.

81
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 4: Well, we are really here to First of all, there's

82
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 4: only two candidates. There's the current governor, Governor Basher, who

83
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 4: happens to be a Democrat, and Governor Basher. I wouldn't

84
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 4: say he's terrible, but of course you and I talk

85
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 4: all the time about how much more the Democratic Party

86
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 4: has to do in order to be as committed to

87
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 4: it to us as voters as we've been to them,

88
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,600
Speaker 4: So I wouldn't sit and tell you that I'm this

89
00:04:55,839 --> 00:05:00,159
Speaker 4: huge Basher supporter, but he is the alternative candidate. One

90
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,679
Speaker 4: of the things that Governor Bashir has done is restored

91
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,679
Speaker 4: the voting rights of one hundred and seventy thousand people

92
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 4: who are formerly incarcerated or people who have had convictions

93
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 4: felony convictions, and sixty thousand of those people registered to vote,

94
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 4: but only ten thousand of them have been to the polls. So,

95
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 4: as far as we're concerned, that one hundred and seventy

96
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,799
Speaker 4: thousand people is an important number for what we're doing

97
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 4: here now and what power looks like or power building

98
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 4: looks like in the state of Kentucky. So we do

99
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,679
Speaker 4: give him credit for that. There's been some other things

100
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 4: that he's done. There are local people in the state

101
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,039
Speaker 4: of Kentucky who some support him, others have real issues

102
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 4: with him. Before the most part, those people who are

103
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,159
Speaker 4: grassroots leaders on the ground are saying vote for Governor

104
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 4: Basher and vote and do not vote for Daniel Cameron.

105
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 1: Well, for those just listening, we're talking to ta Mika Mallory.

106
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 1: She's out in Kentucky now. One thing that I didn't

107
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: see I seen you on Live the other day, said

108
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 1: that your life was threatened and that somebody threatened your hotel.

109
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 1: That's what we need to get to and all that

110
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 1: other stuff. So so explain to the people what happened.

111
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,279
Speaker 1: And some people just don't know how dangerous your work

112
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 1: is and what you have to deal with it. They

113
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 1: think you just stand on the front line and you

114
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 1: shout and you scream. But it's a lot, it's a

115
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: lot more than that. So break down, what's what's been

116
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 1: going on and happening with you right now?

117
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, they do. I do stand on the front line

118
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,160
Speaker 2: and yell and scream.

119
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 4: I do that too, which is probably why the death

120
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 4: threats were coming through the several hotels in the state

121
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 4: in Kentucky and Louisville, Kentucky received phone calls from someone

122
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 4: a man asking whether or not I was staying at

123
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 4: those hotels. And of course, in you know, the if

124
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 4: the protocol is followed properly, hotels would never say you

125
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 4: know that the person is here.

126
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 2: So they said, well, you know she's not. I don't

127
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 2: you know. They said, we can't give out that information.

128
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 4: And the response was, well, it doesn't matter whether she's

129
00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 4: staying there.

130
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 2: Or not, but tell the bitch that I'm going to shoot.

131
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 4: So that was the first call, and of course, you know,

132
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 4: they tracked me down. The police department in Kentucky and

133
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 4: the Louisville specifically, they know how to reach me, whether

134
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 4: it be from the people that I work closely with

135
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 4: here who work within the system, and or just the

136
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 4: fact that I've been arrested a few times here and

137
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 4: as well as just relationships that we've built. So they

138
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 4: tracked me down, had a conversation with me. They had

139
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 4: police to meet me to let me know that it

140
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 4: sounded like a credible threat. They were concerned about it,

141
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 4: and we did a report in which detectives got involved.

142
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 4: So that was earlier in the day. Later in the evening,

143
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 4: more calls came in, and this particular call was much

144
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 4: more nerve wrecking, if you will, from me. It was

145
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 4: much more concerning because the person called exactly at the

146
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 4: time that I was arriving to the hotel, and they

147
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 4: knew the color car that I've in, and they told

148
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 4: the person at the front desk, you know, you see her,

149
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 4: the bitch that just got out of the car, and

150
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 4: they named the color car and said we're going to

151
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 4: shoot her, and we're going to shoot up the hotel.

152
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 4: So once they started, you know, first of all, I'm

153
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 4: sure that the officers, most of them, do not want

154
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 4: me to be harmed here in Louisville. So you know,

155
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 4: when I met with the officers earlier in the day,

156
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 4: they called, they checked in, they were really really serious

157
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 4: about it. But I think that once someone says they're

158
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 4: going to shoot up a hotel, it turns into a

159
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 4: whole different situation when we're.

160
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 2: In this climate where there are mass.

161
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 4: Shootings, where people are walking into buildings and shooting multiple people.

162
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 4: And so at that point, the Department of Justice, the FBI,

163
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 4: and all these other individuals became concerned about what's happening. So,

164
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 4: you know, since then, things have been pretty cool. That

165
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 4: doesn't mean that we're not still be a watch. We

166
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 4: went through this, y'all know it because you reported on

167
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 4: it when we lived here.

168
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 3: Why do you say since then, Tom, you've only been

169
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 3: there seventy two hours?

170
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 2: Then, I mean every day, every day. Listen.

171
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 4: We got through yesterday without anyone reporting any calls, but

172
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 4: the day before was a really bad day. And I

173
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 4: think you know what for me, As I said, you

174
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 4: all have covered this before, because when we were living

175
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 4: in Kentucky for four months in the thick of fighting

176
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 4: for Breonna Taylor, we were being threatened every day. We

177
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 4: had all types of police surveillance, We had the White

178
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 4: supremacists coming after us. We will find them, you know,

179
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 4: our security they found people in the bushes. I mean,

180
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 4: it was just a nightmare what we went through. And

181
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 4: so we're pretty much used to it. Not saying that

182
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 4: that means that we don't take it seriously because we do,

183
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 4: and we do have a very expensive, unfortunately security team

184
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:58,199
Speaker 4: of brothers who love and protect me with their life

185
00:09:58,200 --> 00:09:59,199
Speaker 4: and protect us.

186
00:09:59,040 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 2: With their lives.

187
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 4: But what really bothered me wasn't so much that the

188
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 4: threat was against me. It's that there's a person. I

189
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 4: don't know what they make, but let's just say, for

190
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 4: the purpose of this conversation, eighteen dollars an hour and

191
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 4: you're answering the phone in the hotel and someone is

192
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 4: saying that they're going to shoot up the hotel.

193
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 2: That's scary.

194
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 4: It's scary for their families, it's scary for them personally.

195
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 4: Now the rest of the time that I'm doing my job,

196
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,680
Speaker 4: I'm worrying about who might come through this door and

197
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 4: what might happen and then trying to relay that to

198
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 4: my family members. It's no joke, so we don't take

199
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 4: it lightly. We understand the significance of those types of threats,

200
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 4: and yes, more than likely people are not going to

201
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 4: call you and tell you they're going to kill you.

202
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,199
Speaker 4: But we know that at the Top shooting in the

203
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 4: Top Supermarket shooting in Buffalo, that man had been there before,

204
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 4: he was surveialing the location.

205
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 2: So it's not one hundred percent.

206
00:10:56,080 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 4: That it won't happen that someone will come surveil, you know,

207
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 4: do surveil the area, maybe even call and then go

208
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 4: out and do something heinous, like to try to murder people.

209
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,719
Speaker 2: So we do take it seriously.

210
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 3: Why do you even have to be there, Tamika, I

211
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:13,559
Speaker 3: asked you this yesterday, but I want you to I

212
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 3: want to say this. I don't ask you publicly. Why

213
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 3: do you have to be there?

214
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a good question, because people are like, you

215
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 4: should go home, including some of my family members are like, uh, yeah,

216
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 4: you did enough, like go home. But again, I promised

217
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 4: to Meeka Palma, Breonna Taylor's mother that we were never

218
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,599
Speaker 4: gonna leave her and to have Daniel Cameron knowing. And

219
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:36,079
Speaker 4: by the way, some people will say, well, maybe there

220
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 4: were no charges, Well there were because the Department of

221
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 4: Justice has uh the the uh the the civil rights

222
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,960
Speaker 4: charges that have been filed against those officers are significant.

223
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 4: So it's not that there was nothing there. There was

224
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 4: absolutely something to indict those officers on because we now

225
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 4: see that the federal government has moved in to do

226
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 4: so and they don't do that and lets they know.

227
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 4: And by the way, once they started, once they got

228
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 4: a little bit of information and they started pricking into it,

229
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 4: people started coming forward.

230
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 2: And when I say people, I'm.

231
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 4: Talking about police officers telling the truth about what took

232
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 4: place and the ways in which they covered up the

233
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 4: murder of Brianna Taylor. So we have a real serious

234
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 4: chip on our shoulder with this because we were here

235
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 4: and we could have lost our lives, something really bad

236
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 4: could have happened to us, as it did Brihanna. And

237
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 4: I promised Tamika that I would help her to finish

238
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 4: the job. And one thing I always tell folks is

239
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 4: a lot of people that are online activists and I

240
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 4: don't take anything away from them because raising awareness is

241
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 4: a part of activism. But I'm an organizer that is

242
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 4: from the old school, and I believe you have to

243
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 4: knock on doors and look people in their eyes and

244
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,200
Speaker 4: remind them of their power and remind them of the

245
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 4: importance of them paying attention to not just elections, but

246
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 4: whatever the movements are for social causes happening in their community.

247
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 4: And so when we live here before, we knocked on doors,

248
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 4: we took food to four thousand families, We held conferences,

249
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 4: we did things in this community that has we built

250
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 4: a family here of organizers and we know what they need.

251
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 4: They're doing the work on their own, but we help

252
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 4: them to bring it and raise the attention to a

253
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 4: national level so people will know what's going on in Kentucky.

254
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 4: It is and you know, and you all know because we.

255
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 2: Talk about this. It's a virus that's spreading.

256
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 4: So what's happening in Kentucky has national implications because if

257
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 4: Daniel Cameron becomes governor, his behavior, his policies, the ways

258
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 4: in which he thinks. I just told you he's like

259
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 4: the black cousin of Ron DeSantis. They are spreading something

260
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 4: across this nation that is dangerous for our people. And

261
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 4: so that's why I'm here. I'm here because I don't

262
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 4: believe that I can just send a text message in

263
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 4: a phone call and really motivate our people to get

264
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 4: to the polls.

265
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,079
Speaker 1: Now, let me ask you a question. For people out

266
00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 1: there that want to help, that want to donate time,

267
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: finances or whatever, how can they do that and where

268
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: can they do that? What's the site?

269
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 4: So it's best to go to until freedom dot com.

270
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,679
Speaker 4: Until freedom dot com is safe, it's secure, it's an

271
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 4: act Blue account, it goes straight to us. It's best

272
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 4: to invest in our work through the website until freedom

273
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 4: dot com. But there are some people who want to

274
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 4: send cash app, and I'm you know, we're completely fine

275
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 4: with that. It's until freedom on cash aff it's until freedom.

276
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 4: The reason why I say it's best to go to

277
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 4: until freedom dot com is because there are imposters that

278
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 4: since twenty twenty have been putting up accounts either with

279
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 4: my picture or the until freedom picture, and they have

280
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 4: added things like NY or US or an extra L

281
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 4: or something that will make someone who's not paying attention

282
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 4: closely choose that and send money. And we know for sure,

283
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 4: because we have verified it with cash app, that that

284
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 4: money thousands of dollars have gone to these fake accounts,

285
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 4: So we ask people that if you're going to do

286
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 4: cash app pay attention to the words being spelled properly.

287
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 4: It's until Freedom and there is no end. Why there's

288
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 4: no US, there's no nothing else. But if you can,

289
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 4: it's really quick to just go to untilfreedom dot com

290
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 4: and give that way.

291
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 3: Well, Tamiga, we love you, we value you, we appreciate you.

292
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 3: We thank you for always being on the front lines,

293
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 3: you know, fighting for us, even when it's not the sexy,

294
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 3: sexy story or sexy thing to do at the moment.

295
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 3: And you know, like you said yesterday, you're getting all

296
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 3: these death threats and it's easier to do something when

297
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 3: it's in the dark. So that's why we shine in

298
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 3: the light on the work you're doing in Kentucky right now.

299
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 1: Thank you so much and be safe them.

300
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 2: Love y'all, appreciate you. Hopefully I'll be able to come

301
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 2: in when we get back.

302
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 3: Absolutely wake that ass up in the morning. Breakfast Club
