WEBVTT - Ep. 8—Make your credit jump like Jordan 0:00:09.320 --> 0:00:12.920 Hey, hey, hey, and we're back. It is Brown Ambition, 0:00:13.119 --> 0:00:13.880 Episode eight. 0:00:14.560 --> 0:00:15.520 Hey, guys, what's up. 0:00:15.520 --> 0:00:18.720 It's Mandy and it's Tiffany and we're back. 0:00:18.760 --> 0:00:20.160 Man, hope you guys had a good weekend. 0:00:20.480 --> 0:00:21.799 Yeah, I hope you did have. 0:00:21.800 --> 0:00:22.640 It's October. 0:00:22.640 --> 0:00:25.400 It's fall, Yeah, I mean, I don't know. Honestly. I 0:00:25.480 --> 0:00:29.880 love the fall for the foliage. And I don't mind 0:00:29.880 --> 0:00:32.600 a crisp kind of like slightly chilly, but I don't 0:00:32.640 --> 0:00:33.600 like cold, cold, cold. 0:00:33.880 --> 0:00:36.280 Well, I guess I can agree with that. This is 0:00:36.320 --> 0:00:37.760 the time of year. Like our heat went on this 0:00:37.760 --> 0:00:40.519 weekend at our apartment, and I love the smell of 0:00:40.560 --> 0:00:42.720 the first heat of winter. Like yeah, I like the 0:00:42.720 --> 0:00:44.440 way the apartment you can smell it come on. It 0:00:44.479 --> 0:00:46.000 kind of smells like I don't know what it smells like, 0:00:46.000 --> 0:00:50.120 probably like chemicals and discussing, but it kind of it's cozy, 0:00:50.440 --> 0:00:52.320 except for at night it gets so hot. 0:00:52.360 --> 0:00:53.280 We have radiators. 0:00:53.280 --> 0:00:56.320 We have an old, old, old building, and the radiators 0:00:56.320 --> 0:01:00.520 making noises and they hiss. Yeah, and it's so freaking hot, 0:01:00.560 --> 0:01:01.840 like I'll wake up the middle the night in like 0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:04.280 a dead sweat. Like I wear less clothes in winter 0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:06.600 to bed than I do in summertime. 0:01:06.280 --> 0:01:07.840 Like honestly, I used to. So I used to work 0:01:07.880 --> 0:01:11.640 in this building, which was a housing building aka the 0:01:11.640 --> 0:01:15.800 projects in Newark, and so I never heard of project 0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:18.720 heat before. It's a real thing. So project heat is 0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:21.000 like it's it's heat and like you know one of 0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:23.559 those high rise buildings that's controlled by like I guess 0:01:23.560 --> 0:01:26.319 some sort of main system. So you don't have any 0:01:26.319 --> 0:01:27.000 control over your heat. 0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:28.280 Oh I don't have control over money either. 0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:32.240 Okay, so that project you are. 0:01:32.440 --> 0:01:33.679 I don't pay project money. 0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:37.880 No, no, I wish I was so anyway, it is so hot, 0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:39.600 like literally in the winter time. When I used to 0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:42.600 teach preschool, so our preschool was in the the bottom 0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:44.640 of the building. We would have to like open, like 0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:47.040 in the dead of winter, our like windows and doors 0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:49.480 because literally I would get sick because the heat was 0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:50.000 so hot. 0:01:50.080 --> 0:01:51.040 We crack our windows. 0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:53.480 You could actually boil like the water that came out 0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:54.720 of the heater. You could actually boil the. 0:01:54.720 --> 0:01:56.800 Egg with just straight I d clothes on it. 0:01:57.040 --> 0:01:59.480 Yeah I do. Oh man, do you have project heat. 0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:01.160 I'm gonna start calling it that. 0:02:01.280 --> 0:02:03.080 Yeah, you're getting brown and browner every day. 0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:06.200 I don't like not having control, but yay. Fall. 0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:12.280 All that to say, it's fall, It's beautiful. So what 0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:14.359 do we want to talk about for Buzzworthy. 0:02:14.040 --> 0:02:17.760 Buzzworthy this week? We have a lot of interesting topics. 0:02:18.040 --> 0:02:19.640 Do you want to Well, let's start. Let's start with 0:02:19.639 --> 0:02:24.800 this whole textbook controversy. So obviously, people who win history 0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:27.440 tend to write history books. Yes, which means that a 0:02:27.480 --> 0:02:30.480 lot of I'm guessing probably old white men are writing 0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:34.919 our children's history books. And there's some reaching controversy over 0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:37.280 a textbook that is in a caption of a photo 0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:41.760 describing the slave trade, describes slaves as quote unquote workers. 0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:46.320 Can you imagine? It says something like it's like you see, 0:02:46.480 --> 0:02:48.160 they're trying to show you kind of like the route 0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:50.800 that the slaves took by I guess by ship, and 0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:53.840 the caption says something like, this is the route that 0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:57.760 they brought over the workers from Africa to America. The workers. 0:02:57.919 --> 0:03:01.040 Oh oh, did the slaves that they were workers? Did 0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:02.200 they get workers' wages? 0:03:02.320 --> 0:03:03.079 They get benefits? 0:03:03.240 --> 0:03:05.640 I couldn't believe. I mean, it just it's just so 0:03:05.840 --> 0:03:08.600 infuriating because it's very clear they're trying to rewrite history 0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:10.840 to make it seem like slavery wasn't that bad. I've 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:13.440 heard that a lot from people down south that that's 0:03:13.520 --> 0:03:16.040 kind of like the notion that it wasn't that bad. 0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:18.920 And I'm like, oh, so loss of freedom and life 0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:21.440 and choice and liberty is not that bad. 0:03:21.960 --> 0:03:24.639 What I love about it is that the chapter, this 0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:27.760 whole like this, this excerpt from the chapter was called 0:03:27.760 --> 0:03:29.959 out by one of the kids. It wasn't like the 0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:31.959 kid's mother saw it and was like, listen, honey, no. 0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:34.880 This kid so apparently his name is Kobe Burn. He's 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:36.800 from Houston, so he was reading the textbook, saw this 0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:39.760 part and texted his mother. He said with a text message, 0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:41.600 we was real hard workers, wasn't we. 0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:43.680 I love sarcasm. 0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:47.840 Sarcasm obviously yea. And his mother what's her name, Ronny 0:03:48.560 --> 0:03:50.720 Rone or Ronnie So she's the one who kicked everything off. 0:03:50.760 --> 0:03:53.360 Once her son texted her, she put up this. She 0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:55.000 put up a post on Facebook and I think a 0:03:55.080 --> 0:03:57.760 video too where she calls out the textbook and now 0:03:57.800 --> 0:04:05.240 the company, yay black Power. The company is renovating revising 0:04:05.480 --> 0:04:06.480 this page in the book. 0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:08.120 Which is like, why did we even have to say 0:04:08.720 --> 0:04:10.960 call it what it is? These were not workers, These 0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:16.680 were stolen people and they were abused beyond like I mean, 0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:18.800 even though people will say like, oh well I've actually 0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:21.320 read somewhere like oh, our slaves were happy and they 0:04:21.360 --> 0:04:23.080 wanted to be here, Like what does that even mean? 0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:25.840 Oh, here's the thing. This is why it's really fucked up. 0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:29.120 They this this is about so the I'm looking at 0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:31.880 the page of the book. It's it's titled Patterns of Immigration. 0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:34.719 So when you immigrate to a country, that kind of 0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:37.600 insinuates that you want to be there. Yes, choice by choice. Yes, 0:04:37.760 --> 0:04:40.320 So this is Yeah, in that context, it's even crazier 0:04:40.320 --> 0:04:43.800 that they're calling them like African workers who immigrated to America. Yeah, 0:04:43.880 --> 0:04:45.880 they weren't shackle them bound and put on slave ships 0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:47.600 and made to drown at see and die and all 0:04:47.640 --> 0:04:50.560 this stuff. And mm hmmmmm. This is why we need 0:04:50.600 --> 0:04:53.320 more diverse textbook authors. Let's make a call for if 0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:54.560 I don't know, how do you even get a job 0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:55.440 as a textbook writer? 0:04:55.520 --> 0:04:55.960 I don't know. 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:59.000 That must be the widest job in America, you know 0:04:59.040 --> 0:04:59.480 what I mean. 0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:03.240 Somebody's sitting in the audience like right now, like, oh well, yeah, 0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:04.679 I don't yeah. 0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:07.159 I don't think until I got to college all my 0:05:07.279 --> 0:05:09.000 you know, professors have to write books. I don't think 0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:12.000 I had a textbook written by a black person to college. 0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:14.920 So yay public education. 0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:26.880 Yes, and yay Kobe. 0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:33.039 Oh, I wanted to talk about urban geeks. This isn't 0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:33.679 what it's called. 0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:35.840 It's called hood hood nerds. 0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:39.600 No, okay, yeah, I screwed up, but we'll keep going. Yeah, 0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:41.640 it's called hood nerds. Wait is that what's really called? 0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:42.400 It's called hood something. 0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:44.680 But I told you I didn't like the neighborhood hood 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:45.560 Wait where is it at? 0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:47.760 Yes, it's called hood something, and I was just like, 0:05:47.760 --> 0:05:50.039 what does it have to be called hood smart? 0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:52.880 Goods smart? So there's this new reality TV show and listen, 0:05:53.000 --> 0:05:55.400 this is a let's okay. So this is a huge 0:05:55.720 --> 0:06:00.240 step forward away from like Kardashians and like people food 0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:04.159 dating naked and like in the wilderness naked, just stupid 0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:07.440 reality TV. There's a good just everyone's butt ass naked 0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:10.080 at all times. There's a new show called hood Smart, 0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:15.560 the Urban Stemulus Projects. Stem of course is for science, technology, engineering, 0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:16.000 and math. 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:17.719 Okay, got that right? Yep, yay. 0:06:18.080 --> 0:06:21.240 And this is featuring how are how many black teenagers 0:06:21.240 --> 0:06:25.479 fifteen teenagers living in house for eight weeks and they 0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:29.880 are competing in all these STEM related competitions and they 0:06:29.880 --> 0:06:33.240 this headline says urban kids, which is kind of stupid, but. 0:06:33.320 --> 0:06:34.680 Code for black black kids. 0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:37.599 They're from black communities, and it's just nice to see. 0:06:37.839 --> 0:06:41.000 First of all, we all know that black black men 0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:44.320 and black women just aren't as prevalent in STEM fields, 0:06:44.760 --> 0:06:46.560 and so it's nice to it's nice to that all 0:06:46.560 --> 0:06:47.600 these kids are getting attention. 0:06:47.800 --> 0:06:49.719 Is there's a push for which is nice. Like they're like, 0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:52.440 I live in New Jersey and nng i T, which 0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:55.800 is New Jersey Institute of Technology. They actually have a 0:06:55.839 --> 0:06:59.520 STEM program like just for girls that starts in fourth 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:02.080 grade in the summertime and it's free. So I'm totally 0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:04.599 going to sign up. Supergirl, who is super Superman. My 0:07:04.640 --> 0:07:07.120 boyfriend he has a nine year old daughter, so I 0:07:07.160 --> 0:07:09.120 was like, oh, yes, she just turned nine like two 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:12.080 days ago, and I'm like, ooh, Supergirl's totally going to 0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:14.760 sign up for STEM because I want her to, like, 0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:17.680 you know, know that she can be good. She's really artistic, 0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:19.320 you know, but I want her to also know you're 0:07:19.360 --> 0:07:22.160 really smart and you can do everything, you know. 0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:25.320 So there's that there's a group called Black Girls Who Code. Yeah, 0:07:25.360 --> 0:07:29.800 that's also supporting young black and women, women people, women 0:07:29.880 --> 0:07:33.520 and tech women, folks, women, folks. I think that's exciting, 0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:36.040 and it's it's great that it's a television show because 0:07:36.120 --> 0:07:38.120 that's where that's what kids are looking at and when 0:07:38.120 --> 0:07:40.880 they see kids like themselves exactly doing this and not 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:42.920 just like I don't know what other reality TV show 0:07:42.960 --> 0:07:45.760 like skateboarding or like what is it sixteen and pregnant 0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:48.320 that's a big teenage show. It's nice to see that 0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:52.920 example set. So and honestly, we say so often and 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:55.280 you hear so many studies, read so many studies about 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:58.480 how education is the most important tool to lift you 0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:00.760 out of poverty, and let's be on minorities are more 0:08:00.800 --> 0:08:02.760 likely to be poor. Yeah, but it's also what you 0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:05.240 study that matters, and you have to teach these lessons 0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:06.880 that like, if you want to get a good career, 0:08:06.920 --> 0:08:09.160 you have to study a certain thing, a certain thing. 0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:11.640 And of course I'm speaking from someone who study journalism, 0:08:11.760 --> 0:08:14.760 which isn't always the most lucrative, but you should study 0:08:14.760 --> 0:08:16.920 something that's going to get you a living, a livable 0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:18.800 wage and really help you lift your I. 0:08:18.760 --> 0:08:20.760 Didn't understand that until my dad told me, like I remember, 0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:23.080 I wanted to go into school and study psychology or 0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:26.520 sociology and he was like no, and he was like, 0:08:26.640 --> 0:08:31.480 that is like the typical brown woman. Like like, I 0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:33.280 forget what he said. He didn't say it that nice, 0:08:33.760 --> 0:08:35.520 but basically he was like every black girl does that. 0:08:35.600 --> 0:08:38.599 And I was like, no, daddy, I'm gonna do it. 0:08:38.679 --> 0:08:40.400 He was like, okay, then you paid for college. And 0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:42.319 I was like, okay, daddy, what do you want me 0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:46.560 to do? And I just remember being so mad at him. 0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:48.760 And now that I kind of take a step back 0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:52.400 and I'm older, I see what he meant in a way. 0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:54.880 He's just basically meant that because I knew I wanted 0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:56.560 to live a life of service. And he was like, 0:08:56.640 --> 0:09:00.240 but if you choose certain majors, it puts you and 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:02.559 so many of my friends who went to school for sociology, 0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:06.000 psychology and our social workers are not making enough to 0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:09.920 contribute exactly. Yeah, And so because I chose, I think 0:09:09.920 --> 0:09:13.480 I chose like business and marketing something random. But through 0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:16.320 my business, it's almost like I do social work through 0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:18.559 my business, So I'm able to still do what I 0:09:18.880 --> 0:09:22.040 initially intended. But in a way that one is lucrative, 0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:26.200 and I'm also able to affect way more women than 0:09:26.240 --> 0:09:28.200 I would have and maybe like a smaller capacity. And 0:09:28.200 --> 0:09:29.679 not to say you shouldn't go to school for social 0:09:29.679 --> 0:09:32.600 work or psychology, but that you just have to know 0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:35.360 that the major you choose really is going to help 0:09:35.920 --> 0:09:37.760 order your steps for the rest of your life. 0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:39.720 And that's why it's important too, just real quick to 0:09:39.720 --> 0:09:42.600 have mentors because I was a first person in my 0:09:42.600 --> 0:09:45.280 family to go to college, my immediately my immediate family, 0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:47.920 and I didn't have anyone sitting me down and telling 0:09:47.960 --> 0:09:50.560 me how to pick a major, like how to plan 0:09:50.640 --> 0:09:53.199 my career. And I think if I'd had someone to 0:09:54.720 --> 0:09:56.840 give me that information, I would have been able to 0:09:56.960 --> 0:09:59.440 use it, you know, and have that knowledge. So I 0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:00.960 think mentor ship's really important. 0:10:14.360 --> 0:10:18.840 So it's brown break, Brown Break, what you're gonna do? 0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:21.800 I like to go low, so I take the hat. 0:10:21.840 --> 0:10:26.520 I'm the soprano brown. Clearly me and Mandy did not 0:10:26.559 --> 0:10:29.840 go to school for safe but I sounded really good. 0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:33.880 Oh yeah, so what are you breaking from? Mandy? 0:10:34.400 --> 0:10:38.400 My brown break this week is for a collective group 0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:41.760 of people who have somehow proliferated all these lies about 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:45.199 Planned Parenthood. I don't know if you've been watching or 0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:48.160 paying attention to the news, but there was this anti 0:10:48.280 --> 0:10:52.040 abortion group which did a sting quote unquote operation and 0:10:52.160 --> 0:10:55.840 tried to catch Planned PARENTHOED workers admitting that they used 0:10:55.880 --> 0:10:59.280 fetal tissue and sell it for research purposes. And it 0:10:59.320 --> 0:11:01.640 was this big hole controversy and it's all led to 0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:05.920 this huge Republican left sorry right wing conservative movement to 0:11:06.040 --> 0:11:09.760 defund Planned Parenthood because and this lie that they're spreading 0:11:09.920 --> 0:11:14.160 is that Planned Parented gives abortions and sells dead babies 0:11:14.280 --> 0:11:16.800 for science, and that's what they're doing, which is such 0:11:16.840 --> 0:11:20.240 a total bullshit lie on several fronts. For one thing, 0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:25.439 federal dollars that Planned Parented gets do not go toward abortions. 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:29.800 They cannot. The majority of Planned Parented's work is contraception, 0:11:30.880 --> 0:11:34.199 and like it says, Planned PARENTHO, a lot of women 0:11:34.320 --> 0:11:36.800 do and they don't just do abortions. The majority of 0:11:36.800 --> 0:11:40.280 the work is contraceptive. While women visit some women who 0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:43.160 can't afford to go to a fancy guy in tocologist. 0:11:42.800 --> 0:11:45.040 Me in college. That's why I used to go because 0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:46.120 I was like, I didn't want to tell my mom, 0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:47.040 I was sexually active. 0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:48.240 That's why I went for birth control. 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:50.520 I iced to go for birth control. I used to 0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:52.840 go for like just checkups and be like, all right, 0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:55.160 I'm good. Like if I had like any questions, I 0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:57.800 would go there. And I didn't come from like my family. 0:11:57.840 --> 0:12:00.240 You know, we definitely were not well off, but I 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:03.600 probably could have afforded something different. But also too, just 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:05.400 being young, I was like, I don't want to tell 0:12:05.440 --> 0:12:10.080 my mom I'm doing it. Wasn't I was a Vergis 0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:10.720 till I was forty. 0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:12.200 My mom was like counting on the days? 0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:13.440 Is it? Yeah? 0:12:13.559 --> 0:12:13.920 Still not? 0:12:14.120 --> 0:12:14.920 Okay? 0:12:15.160 --> 0:12:16.520 Oh? Really is that my foreigner? 0:12:16.679 --> 0:12:18.480 Is that like a cultural thing a thing? 0:12:18.679 --> 0:12:21.520 I don't know. I think I was just so chronically single. 0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:23.400 I think she was just like, come on, Mandy, like 0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:24.680 get it because something. 0:12:25.400 --> 0:12:26.800 Oh my parents were like, you should be a virgin 0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:30.240 it til you get better. That's so funny. 0:12:30.280 --> 0:12:32.760 But so that's one of the lies. Okay, So let's 0:12:32.800 --> 0:12:34.760 just dispel that myth. Most of the work they do 0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:37.960 is not for abortions. The abortions they do do do 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:40.600 not use federal dollars, So defunding planned parented will not 0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:43.960 actually take away from the abortion work they do. This 0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:46.120 is and so all this call to defund them had 0:12:46.160 --> 0:12:48.720 led to a congressional hearing and they had the CEO 0:12:49.280 --> 0:12:52.360 of Planned Parenthood come to Capitol Hill to sit for 0:12:52.400 --> 0:12:54.640 this hearing. And it's supposed to be a conversation and 0:12:54.640 --> 0:12:58.320 it's supposed to be truth telling. However, Republicans use this 0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:01.400 as basically a platform to just things at her and 0:13:01.640 --> 0:13:04.760 use lies. At one point, this idiot congressman, I'm gonna 0:13:04.760 --> 0:13:06.040 find his name in a second so I can just 0:13:06.080 --> 0:13:09.400 call him out. He pulls up this chart and tells 0:13:09.480 --> 0:13:13.120 cecil Richards this chart is showing that as the rate 0:13:13.160 --> 0:13:15.480 of abortions that planned parenting goes up, the rate of 0:13:15.480 --> 0:13:19.200 contraceptions given goes down. And Cecila's this is an excellent clip. 0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:21.480 I'm gonna put it on our website. Cecilia is saying like, 0:13:21.640 --> 0:13:24.200 I've never seen this chart before, and then she looks 0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:25.920 to her left and she's like, actually, my lawyer has 0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:28.240 just told me this chart was furnished by an anti 0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:30.520 abortion group. You should check your sources. 0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:31.120 Wow. 0:13:31.200 --> 0:13:34.920 And his face is like there because like, how do 0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:37.360 you and those and you know what, But so many 0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:39.920 people will have just listened to that and cut off 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:42.360 at where he's like that gotcha moment. Yeah, and they 0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:44.319 wouldn't hear that this is a lie because people just 0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:45.439 want to hear what they want to believe. 0:13:45.559 --> 0:13:47.960 Yeah, and that's really what it is people are gonna 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:50.440 I had to learn that, like when the whole like 0:13:51.559 --> 0:13:54.560 Trayvon Martin, all these things were happening, like, you know, 0:13:54.960 --> 0:13:59.320 because my friends are people who basically have similar belief systems, 0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:01.480 so it was I felt like, oh, the sentiments kind 0:14:01.480 --> 0:14:03.200 of the same. And then I would have maybe like 0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:05.000 a one off friend that wasn't part of my normal 0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:08.080 social circle and they would tell me what the sentiments 0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:09.840 were going on in their timeline and I'm like what. 0:14:10.679 --> 0:14:15.040 But then you realize, like, oh, so like people literally 0:14:15.080 --> 0:14:17.800 like your timeline and what you're experiencing, what you're seeing 0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:19.960 really is just a direct reflection of what you want 0:14:20.000 --> 0:14:22.960 to see and experience. So you curate your life basically, 0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:25.240 which you know that's just normal, you know, no judgment, 0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:28.560 but it's just being careful not to get so safe 0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:30.200 in that life that you've curated, to see that there 0:14:30.200 --> 0:14:32.040 are other opinions out there that are there are just 0:14:32.080 --> 0:14:32.960 as valid as yours. 0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:34.480 That's why it's important to vote, and that's why so 0:14:34.520 --> 0:14:36.880 many people don't vote, because they especially people like I 0:14:36.920 --> 0:14:38.920 don't know, I don't know your beliefs, but like I'm 0:14:38.920 --> 0:14:41.920 pretty moderate and so I'm not extremely conservative. I'm not 0:14:41.960 --> 0:14:44.560 extremely liberal. So and the people who are winning these 0:14:44.600 --> 0:14:46.800 elections are the ones, like the Trumps of the world, 0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:49.240 I mean, Jesus extremely the ones you tap into these 0:14:49.280 --> 0:14:53.680 like baser instincts, you know, xenophobia and racism, and these 0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:57.280 can really really extreme left or rightists and leftist groups, 0:14:57.320 --> 0:14:58.840 and those are the ones who go out and vote 0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:01.400 because they get so upset by happening. And we need 0:15:01.440 --> 0:15:03.920 to as moderates. If you're moderate out there, you kind 0:15:03.920 --> 0:15:06.200 of feel complacent. You need to remember it's so important 0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:08.160 to vote because look at how Trump's doing in the polls. 0:15:08.240 --> 0:15:14.280 Yeah. Disgusting. Yeah, don't even get me. We had a 0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:16.000 brown break on Trump and yet he brought him up. 0:15:16.000 --> 0:15:18.280 I think Mandy should be in the botry. 0:15:18.320 --> 0:15:21.120 I can't, but I'm wearing I'm wearing pink today for 0:15:21.200 --> 0:15:25.000 Planned Parented and there's a hashtag I Stand I Stand 0:15:25.040 --> 0:15:27.600 with p P which is for planned Parented, and it's 0:15:27.640 --> 0:15:29.240 just been really great to see there was all these 0:15:29.320 --> 0:15:31.880 rallies a day of the hearing out and supportive planned parented, 0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:35.840 and I just we just have to keep spreading these truths, 0:15:36.280 --> 0:15:39.320 you know, spread the truth when for every post you 0:15:39.360 --> 0:15:41.640 see on your timeline of people spreading lives about planned 0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:44.480 parented or issues of abortion, right, you know, go to 0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:46.880 go to any website fact check dot org and just 0:15:46.920 --> 0:15:49.120 put some facts up there just to like counter it. 0:15:49.440 --> 0:16:01.200 Yeah, so my brand, bak is it's not quite as heavy. 0:16:02.080 --> 0:16:04.640 Are you not gone yet? No? Okay, I feel like 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:07.040 I just sucked all the air out of my. 0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:10.160 Brown break is I want a brown break from blackface? 0:16:10.600 --> 0:16:13.680 So fair enough?

Oh god. 0:17:35.000 --> 0:17:37.520 Yeah, I'm gonna make a prediction. I think that this 0:17:37.600 --> 0:17:39.520 year's black face no Food is going to be someone 0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:42.080 dressing up as lover and Cox. Okay, I think that'll 0:17:42.119 --> 0:17:42.440 be the thing. 0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:45.560 No, I think it's gonna be a Rachel Dolazar Someone's definitely, 0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:46.040 But isn't that. 0:17:46.200 --> 0:17:48.280 See I feel like Rachel so I saw a costume 0:17:48.280 --> 0:17:51.240 for Rachel Dolozol. She's obviously she's the white woman from 0:17:51.320 --> 0:17:55.000 who worked for the NAACP, And yeah, was faking as 0:17:55.000 --> 0:17:58.400 if she was black. And that's like a costume this year. 0:17:58.560 --> 0:18:00.520 But I feel like, if you want to black, if 0:18:00.520 --> 0:18:02.760 you've ever thought about doing like a brown face black 0:18:02.760 --> 0:18:04.960 face costume, this is your chance because you can. Like 0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:06.720 that's the whole point is that she was like. 0:18:07.640 --> 0:18:10.800 Listen to man, if you want to I'm telling you, 0:18:10.840 --> 0:18:12.080 many don't get you drags. 0:18:14.119 --> 0:18:15.960 But like I mean, if you're a white woman you 0:18:16.000 --> 0:18:17.600 want to do Rachel Doles, I'll just put like some 0:18:17.640 --> 0:18:20.480 bronzer on. I think that's I think that's accurate. Okay, 0:18:20.720 --> 0:18:22.359 I don't think that's okay. 0:18:22.560 --> 0:18:24.359
