If I did have the coronavirus, uh, 35 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: I know, especially with seas, I don't know his immune system. 36 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: So I was like, let me stay away. But yesterday 37 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: I had to go to the office. That was my 38 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: first day back to the office. What about you easy yesterday? Well, 39 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:08,839 Speaker 1: I want to commend somebody, Brianna Johnson. She is from 40 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: Brooklyn and she actually I'm part of this Hamilton committee 41 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: and you know, Lemmanuel Miranda went to my college, Wesleyan University. 42 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: So every year they do this Hamilton Prize now and 43 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: whoever wins gets four year full tuition scholarship to Wesleyan. 44 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,920 Speaker 1: So Brianna Johnson is the person they announced as the winner, 45 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 1: and she was the person I had as my first 46 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 1: choice as well, so I want to congratulate her. She's 47 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 1: getting a four year full scholarship to Wesleyan University. She 48 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: actually did an album mixtape called Dreams to Reality, These 49 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: Change and Da Damages of Duality. She wrote these songs 50 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: in eighth and ninth grade. She was struggling to adjust 51 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 1: to her predominantly white school. She was one of the 52 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: only black students in her classes, and it was around 53 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:53,959 Speaker 1: the same time that the shooting of Michael Brown happened, 54 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: and that's basically what she was talking about in her entry. 55 00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: So I thought it was very powerful. So I want 56 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: to congratulate her. That's a big deal for a year 57 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: fow to it. Yes, yeah, absolutely, you know it's funny 58 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,519 Speaker 1: that you said that. Of course, if you have a 59 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 1: senior in high school, they have to write, you know, 60 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 1: certain essays to colleges, and my daughter wrote an essay 61 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: similar to that, just being the only African American in 62 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: the class, black in the class and explaining how that felt, 63 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: and when everything was going on in the world, whether 64 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: it was Donald Trump, whether it's the shootings, how how 65 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: she felt like an outsider and nobody to talk to 66 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: and it felt like people were looking at her and 67 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: she had to write a previous essay and you know, um, 68 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: it's a serious thing. You know, it's a serious, serious thing, 69 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: and a lot of people don't understand how how that 70 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: would make their child feel. You know, sometimes you feel like, 71 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: you know, you're making a little money, you want to 72 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: put your child in a in a you think, a 73 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: better school district, and when they're in their school district, 74 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: they feel lonely about themselves because nobody looks like them. 75 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: So that has a lot to do with how they talk, 76 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: how they speak, how they raise, how they moved. So 77 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: that is a big, big thing, I know, even for myself. 78 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: I went to Catholics. That happened to me. I went, 79 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: I went to Saint Francis Prepp and Queens, but I 80 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: lived in Queens Village, in shady village with you know 81 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: what we call it, So it wasn't as bad because 82 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: even though I went there, I still had to go 83 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: back to Jamaica Avenue. I still had to go home 84 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: and might have my friends at home. So it was 85 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: different for my kids, and a lot of other people's 86 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: kids they don't have that. So congratulations to her man. 87 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 1: I'm so happy for her. Yeah, four years I was 88 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: saying when when I was younger, I went to school. 89 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: First of all, I'm from Flat Push in Brooklyn, and 90 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: you know that's a black neighborhood, a lot of West Indians. 91 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: And and by the way, excited for that Booge and 92 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 1: I mean not Booze you a bounty killer and Beanie 93 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 1: man versus is happening on Saturday. You know, I was 94 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 1: pushing booj you and Beanie. But hey, I'll take Beanie. 95 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: And I know I thought about that too, because I 96 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: actually had said on a zoom before that's a battle 97 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 1: I would have liked to see. But anyway, I was. 98 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: I grew up and I went to school. I didn't 99 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 1: even know any white people except for my teachers. And 100 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: then in seventh grade I went to a predominantly white school, 101 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: probably Prepp in Brooklyn, and I felt so out of place, 102 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: and so I stayed there for three years. All right, 103 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: lam you back with us? I think so. No. Now 104 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: you said like sounds said like your volume is at two? 105 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: Why will we do this?

Let's get in some front page news. But 128 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: we're starting you well. NBA teams they're expecting guidelines for 129 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,600 Speaker 1: how players will be getting back to work on June first, 130 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 1: so that's when they expect the league will call back 131 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: players who have left their home markets, and also that 132 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,840 Speaker 1: same day to represent a point in which they can 133 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: also ratchet up the intensity for workouts for players who 134 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: already are going to team facilities. So you can look 135 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 1: forward to either Orlando, Florida at Disney World or Las Vegas. 136 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: Those are proposed cities for a return for players to 137 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: be able to play their games in the future. So 138 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: did you say June Firth they're gonna have the meeting 139 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 1: or June Firth they're gonna start back playing. They'll not 140 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: playing games, but we're talking about a ratteting up the 141 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: way that they work out for players that are already 142 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 1: working out and for other players to be called back 143 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: to come and work out. I see they had a 144 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: nast called yesterday, had nass called cup Race yesterday. So 145 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: I mean they opening things back up. They're like, all right, 146 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: let's go, all right, Armando Junior Hernandez. He went to 147 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: Snapchat and they're saying that he posted and it's hard 148 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: to look at him and watch this, but it was 149 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: a video that was shared on social media, and he 150 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: is the man who gunned down three people in Glendale, Arizona, 151 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: at the Westgate Mall. So now, fortunately at this point, 152 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: nobody was killed. Three people were shot, two are expected 153 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: to survive, and one person was taken to a hospital 154 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: in critical condition. But the police did respond to an 155 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: active shooter situation at the Westgate Entertainment District shopping center. 156 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: And he has been identified by his mother as Armando 157 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: Junior Hernandez. He was taken into custody. He's twenty years 158 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: old and he attended Raymond Kellis High School. So right now, 159 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: that video was very disturbing, but he was showing himself 160 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: pulling up in his car saying that he was going 161 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: to do this shooting. He puts on a cameo face 162 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: mask and then you see him with the gun firing 163 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: off the rounds and you even see one woman who 164 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: was shot lying down, possibly injured, and he says society 165 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: is bullish. Well, you know that's that's that's yet another 166 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: reason to stay quarantined. How old twenty and right now 167 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: they do not have a motive.

Now, Kendall Jenner 358 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: has to repay some of her Firefest fee. That fire 359 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 1: Festival was supposed to happen in twenty seventeen. It did 360 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 1: not go down. Now she had to pay back ninety 361 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: thousand dollars, but I think the whole amount was like 362 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,439 Speaker 1: two hundred and seventy thousand, two hundred and seventy five 363 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 1: thousand that she got paid to post about the event. 364 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: And a lot of her followers thought that there would 365 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 1: be all these models on an exotic private island, some 366 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:26,399 Speaker 1: great culinary experiences. She also hinted that her brother in 367 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: law Kanye West would be performing, So because she didn't 368 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 1: let people know that it was an ad, she now 369 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: has to repay some of that money. She had to 370 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: put a D in parentheses, and that's whack. Like if 371 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: she did a commercial. I've seen the commercial. She did 372 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,400 Speaker 1: a commercial saying that there was a festival, the Fire Festival, 373 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: and this standing other. She was promoting the Fire Festival. 374 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 1: She didn't say, you know, you know Instagram, some of 375 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: those sites make you do that though. That's why you 376 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 1: see like you'll read somebody's caption and you'll say, like, 377 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: ad in parentheses, have one from yesterday? Yeah, I had 378 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: to do that in a couple of days ago. Yeah. 379 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: But it's just problem is that it didn't even go down. 380 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: And then they said Kanye was never going to perform 381 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 1: at the festival, and she kind of misled people. So 382 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 1: I thought you said that Kanye was supposed to do 383 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: a surprise performance look allegedly behind the scenes, but you know, 384 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if there was an official contracting information 385 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,640 Speaker 1: and if he was supposed to come and it didn't happen. 386 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: You know, I was supposed to get my money back. 387 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 1: That's not fair. You didn't get to keep almost two 388 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars. Guys, she didn't even have to go. 389 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 1: And it's not like she made up her own caption right. 390 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,360 Speaker 1: If her posting on her Instagram was part of the deal, 391 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 1: trust me, they sent her what to say. That was 392 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 1: a copy and paste. I'm almost positive somebody wrote that 393 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 1: for her. All right. Gil King has a new radio 394 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: show that examines dating and relationships in the coronavirus era. 395 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 1: She was on with Stephen Colbert and The Late Show 396 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 1: and they were talking about it. Here's what she had 397 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,639 Speaker 1: to say. It is COVID based. What are you learning 398 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 1: about yourself? What are you learning about other people? How 399 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: have you changed? So it's every third Thursday, every Thursday 400 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 1: at five. You know what I want the topic to be? 401 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: Tomorrow night I meet what Thursday night? Dating in COVID 402 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 1: or ationships in COVID? I think either people are either 403 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,439 Speaker 1: getting closer together or they're going to rip you apart 404 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 1: trying to meet nobody damn coronavirus. She also talks about 405 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 1: what it's like to be single while sheltering in place. Yeah, 406 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 1: but a lot of people are home alone and they 407 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 1: don't want to just not meet anybody. They're still like, okay, 408 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: how can I find somebody? So that is something for 409 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: people to think about safely, of course, without having to 410 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: go out. And some people are saying it is a 411 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: good time to meet people because there's not that pressure 412 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,159 Speaker 1: of having to meet up in person and get all 413 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: done up, so you really get to know somebody during 414 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 1: this time. That's true, all right, And it's a beautiful 415 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 1: time to catfish the cat fish, your show, the catfish 416 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: yourself down days. Beautiful time. Well, but you know a 417 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 1: lot of people are face timing or they're doing little 418 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: zoom dates, so you still get to see that the 419 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: person is really who it's supposed to be, and you 420 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 1: really want to connect with somebody that you never gonna 421 00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,919 Speaker 1: meet in this time. It's not that you're never going 422 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: to meet them, you just what fun is that? Yeah, 423 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,159 Speaker 1: you meet them, but it just it's not gonna be 424 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 1: for a little bit.

Where we're starting me, Well, 446 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 1: let's start with a family in Virginia. They found nearly 447 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 1: a million dollars in cash lying in the middle of 448 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: the road. Let me tell you how amazing this family 449 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:11,959 Speaker 1: is it seems like they always do the right thing. 450 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,160 Speaker 1: Emily Chance said she was driving with her family Saturday 451 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: and she ran over what she thought was bags of 452 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 1: trash on the road. Now, if that was you, what 453 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 1: would you do? I what I was praying for, I 454 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: would keeping blessing bags and trash we had time like 455 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 1: this money they thought it was. They thought it was 456 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 1: bags of trash on the road. They did not know 457 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: it was money. So instead of just throwing it to 458 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 1: the side, they actually put the bags in the back 459 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 1: of their pickup truck because I guess they wanted to 460 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: dispose of it. It wasn't until they got home that 461 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 1: they realized that they had gotten a million dollars almost 462 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 1: And then after that I didn't know it was a million. 463 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 1: They counted it well, now they knew. Afterward, after they 464 00:23:56,840 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 1: returned the money, they actually called local deputies and told 465 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 1: them about their discovery because they had an address on 466 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,639 Speaker 1: it that said cash ball and then an address and 467 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 1: it turned out to be almost a million dollars, so 468 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 1: they gave it all back. So not only did they 469 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,680 Speaker 1: take this trash from the middle of the road and 470 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 1: take it off the road and bring it somewhere to 471 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 1: dispose of it. They also found out it was cash 472 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,640 Speaker 1: and then returned it. Guy was testing me out of fail. 473 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 1: I definitely would have failed. I've seen that bag in 474 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 1: the middle of the road. Nobody around hout of thought. 475 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 1: It was a gift, I said, somebody's blessing me to day. 476 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 1: Where did this money come from? It was the postal 477 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 1: service was delivering it to the bank or something like that. 478 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 1: That's what they were saying. Was supposed to be dropped 479 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 1: off at a bank, but it was from the postal service. 480 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: They got insurance, they had a cash reward. Did they 481 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: get something. I don't know what they got, but they 482 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 1: said they returned it because it was the right thing 483 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 1: to do and it didn't belong to us. And you 484 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:48,920 Speaker 1: don't know it didn't belong you. You know what I'm 485 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 1: saying that God works in mysterious ways.

Okay, But what would you have done, Charlottage, 493 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, To be totally honest with you, I 494 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:11,679 Speaker 1: don't think I would have took it back immediately, though 495 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:13,199 Speaker 1: I would have sat down and talking about that one 496 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 1: for a minute. I would have prayed again. I would 497 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 1: have said, now, God, if this is supposed to be mine, 498 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 1: give me a sign, okay, give me a give me 499 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 1: a sign, please. I wouldn't return that two hundred thousand 500 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 1: dollars to turn that two nd. All right. Twitter is 501 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: testing a feature that would let you decide who's allowed 502 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,199 Speaker 1: to reply to your tweets. I've seen this, so if 503 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: you have a conversation, you can have it so that 504 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 1: only people that are added at mention can respond, or 505 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: only people that can that follow you can respond, or 506 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,160 Speaker 1: you can leave it open for everybody. So I think 507 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: that's a good feature. I like that because sometimes people 508 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,200 Speaker 1: can be disrespectful, so you can be like, you know what, 509 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:56,959 Speaker 1: you're not allowed to respond. All right, now, let's talk 510 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: about what's opening back up. The Connecticut govern has outlined 511 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,400 Speaker 1: the next phases for reopening that state, so phase two 512 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 1: of their reopening is slated for June twentieth, more than 513 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: half of California is moving further into reopening. North Carolina 514 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,639 Speaker 1: tomorrow will allow dine in eating. They'll also be opening 515 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: up here in Neil Salon's barbershops, churches, and pools. So yes, 516 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 1: if you're in North Carolina, you'll be able to do 517 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: that starting tomorrow. Other places in Iowa, the governor announced 518 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 1: the next wave of reopenings, which is movie theater, zoos, aquariums, museums, 519 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 1: and wedding reception venues tomorrow. New York will now allow 520 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 1: religious gatherings of up to ten people starting today. And 521 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 1: they've also unveiled this plan to address seniors and nursing 522 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 1: homes during the pandemic. Now, let's talk about in Toronto. 523 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: They're going to be reopening amenities like basketball courts, picnic 524 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: shelters in hundreds of parks and that is going to 525 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 1: be reopening this week. So they're saying, if we are 526 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: opening up the parks and we're opening up sports facilities, 527 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 1: then there will be physical distancing rules. Also, you can't 528 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: have organized sports right now, so you're not allowed to. 529 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: You you can play basketball park, it just can't be 530 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: organized like. It can't be like a five on five game. 531 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 1: You can probably go and shoot around yourself. They put 532 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: the people gonna be like, let's play it three on 533 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: three or four or four or five five. The stories 534 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: I never I hate any of these stories. I feel 535 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,679 Speaker 1: even worse than worse for the goddamn graduates who got 536 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 1: to graduate virtually or they can play basketball. It makes 537 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,439 Speaker 1: no sense, Like it really makes no sense. You can 538 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 1: find a way to social distance with everything else, but 539 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:36,719 Speaker 1: not a graduation, Like it's really stupid. It is, all right, 540 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: well a lot of people are just a laying graduation, 541 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,679 Speaker 1: so it's not like it won't happen at all, right, man, 542 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,120 Speaker 1: if people they having virtual graduations today and play in Georgia, 543 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 1: they having virtual graduations today, so uh well, anyway, that's 544 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 1: just some of your updates.

They having virtual graduations. For how 547 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: you can't have a day party and you can't have 548 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 1: parties and then these kids can't graduate. Man, it makes 549 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:10,159 Speaker 1: no priorities a mess up? Man, would you say, but 550 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: would you feel okay with letting your kids go to graduation? Right? 551 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: Now too.

So that's why I'm asking. 556 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: Just because it's open doesn't mean you're going to do 557 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: it right. It was graduation, graduate away. Yeah, school is 558 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: you gotta go class to class, They gotta clean.

We talk about the systemic injustices the black 604 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 1: folk lived through, but it doesn't talk about Democrat versus Republican. 605 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 1: The reason I had to finish it quickly is because 606 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: I'm sure y'all are gonna have a guest this fall. 607 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 1: The big dog, Barack Obama's book comes out in the fall, 608 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: and so everybody's trying to get their books out now 609 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 1: so they don't happen, because it'll be over this fall.

I 615 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,479 Speaker 1: thought it was refreshing to see what a positive impact 616 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 1: your father actually had on your life from a young age. Yeah. 617 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: You know, my father was shot February eight, nineteen sixty eight, 618 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 1: in the Orangework massacre. And I tell people it's I mean, 619 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: it's it's rare. I do believe you to be able 620 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 1: to come downstairs and in the kitchen have your hero 621 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 1: there all the time, and um, you know, just looking 622 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: back on their struggles, my father was shot. My father 623 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: went to prison not once, but twice. He went to 624 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: prison the first time for refusing to go to Vietnam. 625 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 1: He went to prison the second time for being an 626 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: outside agitator they deemed him to be. They charged them 627 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: and tried to mean convicted them of rioting. He's the 628 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: first and only one man riot in the history of 629 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 1: this country. But you know, I tell people that the 630 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 1: trauma that people of color lived through in this country, 631 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 1: not only was my father arrested. But you think about 632 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 1: the fact that my mom had to while her husband 633 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 1: was in prison, She had to give birth to my sister, 634 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 1: her oldest child, and then lived with that and carry 635 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: a family. My father had a felony. Imagine having a 636 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: felony in the South during the sixties and seventies, and 637 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 1: so just living through all of that trauma. And when 638 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 1: I look at my dad today, I you know, if 639 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 1: I don't pop like they once did, his should, his 640 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 1: arm as upright as they once were, and you can 641 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 1: see the burden that he's had to carry his entire life. 642 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: Henry Smith, Samuel Hammond, and dellan On Middleton would kill 643 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 1: I'm in arrange word South Carolina and he creay the 644 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 1: South Carolina. This country only blame my father. And so 645 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 1: this book is a love story to him. It's a 646 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 1: love story to the South, it's a love story of 647 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 1: black women.

You know, 649 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 1: when we talk about generational trauma, and you know, based 650 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 1: on what happened to your father in the Orangeburg massacre, 651 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 1: you know, how do you not hate police officers? Well, 652 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 1: I don't hate them. I a I have a healthy 653 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 1: sphere of them. You know, my parents when I was 654 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:21,719 Speaker 1: growing up, my dad, I think if I'm the Summer's experience. 655 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: We never pulled over on the side of the road 656 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 1: and at night, ever, you always drove to the next exit. 657 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 1: You always drove until you know you could find some light. 658 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 1: My father was always saying that, you know, make sure 659 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 1: that you listen. We can cite these injustices in the 660 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 1: court of law because he knew what happened. I mean, 661 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 1: he knew that for eight seconds law enforcement shot into 662 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: a group of students who were just protesting segregation, and 663 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 1: eight seconds to change live, eight seconds to kill three 664 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 1: at wounded twenty eight. And so that's that. Those were 665 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: the lessons that we grew up with. And I'm trying 666 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,959 Speaker 1: to grow out of hate. I do have a lot 667 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 1: of hate in my heart. It's aspirational for me, but 668 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 1: I'm working on my journey. I'm talking a bit Jake's 669 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 1: and Tyler Perry and others, and just trying to let 670 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: all of that resentment and hate go because it's hard 671 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 1: to live and be a father and be a husband 672 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 1: while you're still out here trying to hate people. Yeah, 673 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 1: you know when when we talk about your father, Cleveland Sellers, 674 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:14,479 Speaker 1: the Armsburg mascot, that was the first time in history 675 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 1: that police officers face the federal trial for excessive use 676 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 1: of force, right, Yeah, and they all were found not guilty. Yeah, 677 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: but we still see that happen so much today. And 678 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,359 Speaker 1: you're an attorney, like, how do we as black people 679 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: ever get justice in the court of law? So, I 680 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: mean at the people ask me what do I want 681 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 1: out of my life? And I think that the I 682 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: think envy. You get this too. You know, all we 683 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 1: want is our children to be free. I mean, at 684 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 1: the end of the day, I don't want my children 685 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 1: to have to suffer from injustices because of who they love, 686 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 1: the color of their skin, or who they pray to. 687 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 1: And I want them to be free. And we're not 688 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 1: there yet. I mean, it's it's a it takes more 689 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,400 Speaker 1: of us, more people going it, more black poke on benches, 690 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: on federal benches. That's why this election is so important 691 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: because what Donald Trump has done to federal benches in 692 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 1: this country is something that people have they don't save 693 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 1: and it's not their first thought. But he's reformed the 694 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 1: entire judiciary. You got all these young white boys who 695 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 1: are sitting on benches with lifetime and appointments, who are 696 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,280 Speaker 1: more conservative and less qualified that you can ever imagine, 697 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 1: and they're going to dictate how justice has served in 698 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 1: this country for not just four years, but for decade 699 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 1: upon decade. And so it takes more more young people 700 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: going into law, more young people going to politics, more 701 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: young people coming into the system to reform the system 702 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:29,080 Speaker 1: and break it down. I was going to ask you, 703 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: what do you what do you teach your kids? I mean, 704 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:32,919 Speaker 1: with everything that your dad's been through and you've been through, 705 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:34,800 Speaker 1: and you kind of want them to live kind of 706 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:38,320 Speaker 1: a normal life where they're not fearful of policing, you know, 707 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: So what is your explanation and what are you teaching them? 708 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 1: It's crazy. So I have sixteen month old twins. You 709 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,839 Speaker 1: might hear one or two of them running around here 710 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,359 Speaker 1: at any moment. And then I have a fourteen year 711 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: old daughter. And my fourteen year old daughter she just 712 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 1: she just started taking her driving class man, so she's 713 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 1: about to have a permit. So if you're any Carolinas, 714 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,319 Speaker 1: just stuff, if you see her, just just get off 715 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 1: the road to see it out the way it out. 716 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:02,719 Speaker 1: The way. Yeah, and I'm about to start to go 717 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 1: fund me for this insurance. Good God. Putting the children 718 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 1: on yours goes up easy. But you know, I tell 719 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 1: them to always be unapologetic about your blackness, standing your truth, 720 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: and always think critically. Try not to let your emotions 721 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: consume you. If you're pulled over and you feel like 722 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,840 Speaker 1: it's an injustice, we will fight that injustice in a 723 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,279 Speaker 1: different venue. What you tell your kids, because you've got 724 00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: you got kids out, they're driving and doing all types 725 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 1: of well, you know what, you know, my dad is 726 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 1: a retired police officer, So you know the two things 727 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 1: my dad always taught me was one of the police 728 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 1: and not your friends. So make sure you understand that 729 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 1: the police and not your friends. If they're asking you 730 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 1: questions and they're trying to get information from you, shut up. 731 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 1: The police, not your friends. And then also, and the 732 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 1: second thing is kind of what you just said, My 733 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:45,839 Speaker 1: dad said, you cannot win in the streets. Get home, 734 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 1: and we can win in the courtroom. We can win 735 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: outside of that. So when you're dealing with police out 736 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 1: there and there's a prominents a situation, just remember you 737 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 1: cannot win on those streets. Like it's the it's their game. 738 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,359 Speaker 1: That's true. But you can't win in the courtroom either. 739 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: But at least you're alive in the courtroom, U brother. 740 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: But for everybody, listen and let me just tell y'all 741 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 1: what you said. What you said is so true. Man, 742 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 1: they're not your friends. And so I see part too 743 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 1: many people they're given police there. I know this isn't 744 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:14,480 Speaker 1: on topic, but giving police their phones, you know, cooperating 745 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,360 Speaker 1: and trying to talk their kind of situations. And let 746 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 1: me just tell y'all that never worked. All we got 747 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,839 Speaker 1: more with Bacari Sellers. When we come back, don't move. 748 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club, Good morning, when everybody is DJ 749 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 1: Envy Angela yee.

He has a 751 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:34,880 Speaker 1: new book called My Vanishing Country. Yee o, Karry, what 752 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 1: would you say one of your kids wanted to go 753 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 1: into law enforcement? Oh? I would let them do whatever 754 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 1: they want to do, as long as they were dreaming 755 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,279 Speaker 1: about being the chief of police or the head of 756 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:45,680 Speaker 1: the FBI. I want my kids to always dream about 757 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:49,080 Speaker 1: being the best. I want my kids to do anything 758 00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:51,840 Speaker 1: I want them to be change agents. So so whatever 759 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,480 Speaker 1: whatever profession you go in, make sure that you are 760 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 1: becoming a part of something larger than yourself. You talk 761 00:37:57,040 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 1: about your kids about HBCUs. How important are hbc using 762 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 1: as far as your kids are. Are you gonna kid 763 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:05,720 Speaker 1: cars that the twins have to go to an HPC 764 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 1: I tried. I only brought I brought my kids the 765 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 1: only run regular school, the rest with HBCUs. I went 766 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:17,320 Speaker 1: to the Spellman's, the Clocks, the Hamptons, the Howards. I 767 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 1: went to all HBCUs. My daughter's like, now, I want 768 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 1: to stay close to New York. I want to go 769 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 1: to college in New York, and there's no HBCUs to 770 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 1: New York. My kids can go to any college they 771 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 1: want to go to as long as it's an HBCU. 772 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 1: That's the same thing my parents told me. Now, I 773 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:34,800 Speaker 1: want my kids, my my my my stepdaughter, her father's 774 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 1: Vince Carter, and her mom and my wife went to 775 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 1: North Carolina. So she's between North Carolina, North Carolina and 776 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:42,800 Speaker 1: Howard right now. So I got I got a fifty 777 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 1: percent chance on that when the twins though, the twins 778 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:46,799 Speaker 1: going down to the AUC, they're gonna go to South 779 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 1: Carolina State of clapland we're gonna do all of those 780 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,040 Speaker 1: things that I just think that experience and I talk 781 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,440 Speaker 1: about it in the book, and that experience is necessary 782 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 1: beachause your leadership and not only helps you have dreams 783 00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,279 Speaker 1: and understand that you can compete anywhere, um, but I 784 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 1: think it just gives you this belief and reaffirmation in 785 00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 1: who you are as a black person. One thing that 786 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 1: immediately stands out I should stand out to people when 787 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 1: reading your book, My Vanishing Country is the black working 788 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 1: class in America. Why does it seem like that sector 789 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 1: of America has been forgotten? Well, I mean when you 790 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 1: hear and the media does it all the time. Man, 791 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:23,479 Speaker 1: when you hear about rural America or you hear about 792 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,280 Speaker 1: working class America, everybody makes you think that means white American. 793 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 1: You know, this is about giving people. This book is 794 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 1: about giving the black folk a voice. I want people 795 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 1: to have a sense of pride when they read this book, 796 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 1: and I want white folks to get a sense of understanding. 797 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 1: You know. One of the things that Bishop Jake's told 798 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 1: me when we were having our conversation is that it's 799 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 1: crazy because you can teach people science. You can teach 800 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 1: people math, you can teach people English, but you can't 801 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 1: teach people blackness. And so I want when white folk 802 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 1: read this book, I want them to get a sense 803 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:52,920 Speaker 1: of understanding. And I think we'll have a sense of 804 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 1: pride from reading him. Yeah, that was a good conversation 805 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: with a bishop TV Jakes. I was watching his sermon 806 00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 1: on Sunday. What actually made me go to it? I 807 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:00,880 Speaker 1: saw it on your IG, but I didn't get a 808 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: chance to go to it. But I was watching this 809 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 1: sermon Sunday. He ran a whole goddamn promo for a 810 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:09,520 Speaker 1: conversation with you and him. Before you know, I go 811 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:11,399 Speaker 1: to I end up because you know, I talked about 812 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 1: this as well.

But she ain't had to work 981 00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:14,480 Speaker 1: extremely hard to get Illy on y'all show. We're working 982 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 1: extremely hard to get Biden on y'all show. So I 983 00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:20,759 Speaker 1: think that that's necessary. We're gonna make that happen. But 984 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 1: I think that Joe Biden's gonna win this race. I 985 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:25,719 Speaker 1: think that it's gonna be extremely close. I think we 986 00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 1: have new swing states like Arizona. I think that we 987 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:31,000 Speaker 1: gotta there. We gotta do two things. One, I think 988 00:48:31,040 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 1: he has to have a black woman on the ticket 989 00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:35,879 Speaker 1: because black people are gonna vote, don't that's my trip. 990 00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:37,799 Speaker 1: Black women are gonna vote. They're gonna vote for him. 991 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,160 Speaker 1: But what you want them to do is not only vote, 992 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:41,680 Speaker 1: but you want them to make sure that they own 993 00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 1: them phones, that they're getting everybody from the church to vote, 994 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:47,120 Speaker 1: that they getting their cousins who just come over, who 995 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 1: they get played for it, who come over to the 996 00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:50,879 Speaker 1: cookout to vote. You want them to actually go out 997 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:52,880 Speaker 1: and work, because if it's not a black woman on 998 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:54,880 Speaker 1: that ticket, I'm afraid that they just gonna kind of 999 00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:57,680 Speaker 1: chill out and not do anything. But two, they got 1000 00:48:57,760 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 1: to talk to black men, and for a long period 1001 00:48:59,920 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 1: of time, the Democratic Party has not messaged to black men. 1002 00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:05,759 Speaker 1: Thirteen said of black men voted for Donald Trump, some 1003 00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:07,799 Speaker 1: of it was massogyny, some of it's because we're kind 1004 00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:11,520 Speaker 1: of simple, but other the other part was that there 1005 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:13,560 Speaker 1: was no other message in there and at least Donald 1006 00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 1: Trump talks the black men. I don't believe that BS. 1007 00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:18,080 Speaker 1: Most of y'all don't believe that BS, but there are 1008 00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:20,399 Speaker 1: some of our friends do. And if it's the only 1009 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:23,799 Speaker 1: message there that they hear, then there would be more 1010 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:25,759 Speaker 1: receptive And so we have to fill that void with 1011 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:27,400 Speaker 1: a positive message. You can't just go out here and 1012 00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:29,799 Speaker 1: tell people that you would not Donald Trump. You got 1013 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:32,360 Speaker 1: to give you some people of reasons to vote for you. 1014 00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:35,600 Speaker 1: Why do you think this country's vanishing? Because I see 1015 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:37,960 Speaker 1: it with my eyes. I mean where we grew up 1016 00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,719 Speaker 1: Moss Corner in Denmark, South Carolina. What used to be 1017 00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:45,319 Speaker 1: bubbling economy's upward mobility for people of color are now 1018 00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:48,960 Speaker 1: the small towns, the downtowns are now boarded up. Where 1019 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:51,360 Speaker 1: I'm from, you live in a food desert where you 1020 00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:54,240 Speaker 1: don't have fresh fruits and vegetables, you don't have access 1021 00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:57,680 Speaker 1: to quality care, you're drinking dirty water, you're inhaling unclean air. 1022 00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:01,880 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's vanishing. And then larger scale, Um, I 1023 00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 1: think that what this country has promised us man um. 1024 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:08,759 Speaker 1: But the promises that, by the way, it's kind of crazy. 1025 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 1: My book came out on Malcolm X's birthday. But the 1026 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:16,560 Speaker 1: the things that Malcolm X and mart Luther King Junior, 1027 00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:19,759 Speaker 1: and my father and SOCII car Mincaele and Maryon Burry 1028 00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:23,120 Speaker 1: and Julian Vaughn all pushed this country, those promises, they 1029 00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:26,560 Speaker 1: pushed this country to fulfill. I feel like in this 1030 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 1: era that we're living in now, those things are those 1031 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,799 Speaker 1: things are further away from attaining than they ever were, 1032 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:35,200 Speaker 1: And so I wanted to highlight that and make sure 1033 00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 1: that we knew what the challenge was before us. Absolutely well, 1034 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:42,040 Speaker 1: we vanishing countries out right now, man, make sure you 1035 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:47,280 Speaker 1: go get it Amazon. Uh did you it's own audible too, right, yeah, audible, 1036 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:48,880 Speaker 1: but you know that audible don't really count to US 1037 00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:51,040 Speaker 1: Times best Sellers list man, So let's let's go get 1038 00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:54,200 Speaker 1: the Hard Time please, right. No, they got an audio book. 1039 00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:56,560 Speaker 1: They gott not audible, but they have an audio book. 1040 00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 1: If you buy an audio book, they have a whole 1041 00:50:58,000 --> 00:50:59,320 Speaker 1: other list for that on the New York Time. So 1042 00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:01,000 Speaker 1: you can make that want. I want to make that one, 1043 00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:02,640 Speaker 1: but let me tell you, let me tell y'all real quick, well, 1044 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:04,080 Speaker 1: I want to make the New York Times best sellers 1045 00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:05,680 Speaker 1: list man, but not just to put it in my 1046 00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:07,680 Speaker 1: Twitter baio. But it's going there. But not just for that, 1047 00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:13,040 Speaker 1: but when if young black authors like myself an opportunity 1048 00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:16,000 Speaker 1: to write, um, we have to do well so that 1049 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 1: other people have an opportunity to Charlemagne didn't fell, if 1050 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:23,319 Speaker 1: Mark lamont Hill didn't do well, and Westmore didn't do well, 1051 00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:25,800 Speaker 1: then I wouldn't have my chance. And so it took me. 1052 00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 1: It still took me thirty times to get a book deal. 1053 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:31,080 Speaker 1: And so what I'm saying is I need this book 1054 00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 1: to do well. We need this book to do well 1055 00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:34,920 Speaker 1: so that other people of color can tell their stories too. 1056 00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:37,920 Speaker 1: It's definitely going into Twitter bio if it happens, but 1057 00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:42,839 Speaker 1: I want to open up doors for other people that way. 1058 00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:46,839 Speaker 1: With Angela Ye writes her best selling book, We Gut 1059 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:52,640 Speaker 1: It and we get together, absolutely country and give your love, 1060 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:54,640 Speaker 1: to give our love to your family for us too 1061 00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:56,880 Speaker 1: as well.

All right, it's 1063 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:09,120 Speaker 1: Bakari sellers, It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning listen, it's 1064 00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:13,880 Speaker 1: the Report. Yes, so the barbs are coming at Lisa 1065 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 1: Ray and Claudia Jordan and I'm not sure if they're 1066 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:18,880 Speaker 1: really going at Vivica Fox. But this is all because 1067 00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:21,840 Speaker 1: of some comments that were made on there on Claudia 1068 00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:25,520 Speaker 1: Show on Fox Soul. Now, this all started because of 1069 00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:28,560 Speaker 1: the conversation that Usher had was Swizz where he was 1070 00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:32,720 Speaker 1: talking about a possible battle between Little Kim and Nicki Minaj, 1071 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:35,799 Speaker 1: and Usher said that that didn't seem right because Nicki 1072 00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:40,320 Speaker 1: Minaj was a product of Little Kim. So here is 1073 00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:43,000 Speaker 1: what they discussed as far as those comments. And I 1074 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:45,040 Speaker 1: don't know why the fans are getting so angry at 1075 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 1: what Usher said. Usher did not slam Nicki Minaj by 1076 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:49,880 Speaker 1: saying that that is not a dish to her, but 1077 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:53,360 Speaker 1: it is a fact. Little Kim came up way before 1078 00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,640 Speaker 1: her in a crew of all fellas, and she made 1079 00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:58,520 Speaker 1: that popular. So when we get held them together, queens 1080 00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:01,600 Speaker 1: and say that we are acknowledging fat, all of us 1081 00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:05,080 Speaker 1: are acknowledging in fact him came before Nicki Minaj. And 1082 00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:07,320 Speaker 1: so Nicky, just take a seat. You don't have to 1083 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:09,800 Speaker 1: sit down for long, but just take a bow, just 1084 00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:13,319 Speaker 1: like Beyonce I said, bow down, bitches. I still don't 1085 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,400 Speaker 1: see what the problem is. Nicki Minaj is a product 1086 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:17,760 Speaker 1: a little Kim and that doesn't take away from Nicki's 1087 00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:19,560 Speaker 1: great And it's just like Kobe Bryant is a product 1088 00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:22,040 Speaker 1: of Michael Jordan, Like, what's what's the problem. I think 1089 00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:24,759 Speaker 1: they didn't like how Lisa Ray said for her Nicki 1090 00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:26,759 Speaker 1: Minaj to take a seat and just take a bow. 1091 00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:33,680 Speaker 1: So that's yeah, she did say that. Yeah, it wasn't 1092 00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:39,040 Speaker 1: necessarily just that conversation. So yes, And now the Barbes 1093 00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:42,440 Speaker 1: are going crazy, and Claudia said, wow, now the Barbes 1094 00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:45,000 Speaker 1: have gone too far, threatening to beat her my sixty 1095 00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:47,960 Speaker 1: nine year old mother and now harassing my fifteen year 1096 00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:50,200 Speaker 1: old niece. At the end of the day, what will 1097 00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:52,520 Speaker 1: this accomplish But keep your comma bad and you get 1098 00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:55,600 Speaker 1: brought up on charges. We stay protected, know this, And 1099 00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:58,719 Speaker 1: then she put hashtag over a talk show combo. Then 1100 00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:02,279 Speaker 1: she also said that the Barbs are brainless and soulless. Listen, 1101 00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 1: you can't go ahead. First of all, Claudia didn't even 1102 00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:07,600 Speaker 1: really say anything. I love the fact that Claudia Jordan said, 1103 00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:09,640 Speaker 1: you could be bought upon charges. That's all you gotta do. 1104 00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:12,640 Speaker 1: Just hire the FBI. They have people that can track 1105 00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:15,120 Speaker 1: down those folks. You know what I'm saying, who make 1106 00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:17,879 Speaker 1: those crazy ass comments to you on social media? Those 1107 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:20,080 Speaker 1: death threats, if they leak in your address, if they 1108 00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:23,040 Speaker 1: threatening to kill you, that's all illegal. It just takes 1109 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:24,960 Speaker 1: a little time and a little energy to get it done. 1110 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,000 Speaker 1: But if they threatening your mom and niece and posting 1111 00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:30,160 Speaker 1: your address, it's worth get one of them locked up. Absolutely, 1112 00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:32,800 Speaker 1: And I'm sure that yes, this isn't how Nicki Minas 1113 00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:35,640 Speaker 1: wants to be represented by her fans. Especially you know, 1114 00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:37,720 Speaker 1: at a time like this, you want to be more positive. 1115 00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:39,879 Speaker 1: If you want to be someone's fan and go hard 1116 00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:42,400 Speaker 1: for them, keep it positive, say positive things. If you 1117 00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:45,080 Speaker 1: have an issue with what somebody said, you can address 1118 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:46,720 Speaker 1: them about it, but you don't have to threaten someone's 1119 00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:49,920 Speaker 1: mom or their niece put their FI on their ass. 1120 00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:53,440 Speaker 1: Barbs behind bars should be the hashtag. Okay, let's get 1121 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:56,319 Speaker 1: some of them goddamn bobs locked the hell up, all right, 1122 00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:58,960 Speaker 1: and let's talk about versus battles because I am so 1123 00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:02,319 Speaker 1: excited I did for this Memorial Day event.

It was the worst decision I've ever made. 1172 00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:33,000 Speaker 1: The reason why I feel as though, because first of all, 1173 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:34,680 Speaker 1: I didn't need it. You know what the bomber is, 1174 00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:40,800 Speaker 1: cottle that little I'm gonna suck this pouch out, and 1175 00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 1: by me doing that, I feel like the fat deposit 1176 00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:47,600 Speaker 1: in other places.

Sometimes when you get certain procedures done, 1181 00:57:58,160 --> 00:57:59,760 Speaker 1: you don't think about how it might affect the rest 1182 00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:02,560 Speaker 1: of your body or the upkeeper of it. So that 1183 00:58:02,760 --> 00:58:04,240 Speaker 1: was very honest of her.

Hey, 1200 00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:03,920 Speaker 1: he is the alleged shooter of Westgate Mall in Arizona. Now, 1201 00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:06,800 Speaker 1: if you haven't heard, Armando posted a series of posts 1202 00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:10,520 Speaker 1: on Snapchat that said, well he said he would be 1203 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:13,720 Speaker 1: the shooter of the Westgate Mall. Let's go to KPNX 1204 00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:16,080 Speaker 1: News twelve NBC for the report. Police at least three 1205 00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:19,640 Speaker 1: people have been shot after a suspected gunman opened fire 1206 00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:24,080 Speaker 1: at Glendale's Westgate Entertainment District. Glendale police believed that a 1207 00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:27,320 Speaker 1: lone man with a gun walked into the shopping complex 1208 00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:32,880 Speaker 1: and started shooting, possibly recording himself on several social media platforms. 1209 00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:36,680 Speaker 1: Right now, we're working to confirm the validity of those videos. 1210 00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:40,480 Speaker 1: Glendale Police have the suspect in custody. In the meantime, 1211 00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:43,400 Speaker 1: police want everyone to know that this is not an 1212 00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:48,000 Speaker 1: active shooter situation. However, the area is closed off until 1213 00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:50,120 Speaker 1: further notice. You see why I had to say a 1214 00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:54,080 Speaker 1: ledge shooter because they haven't validated the video yet. How 1215 00:59:54,200 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 1: much more validation do you need? Okay? When a guy 1216 00:59:57,440 --> 00:59:59,240 Speaker 1: looks at the camera and says I Am going to 1217 00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:02,280 Speaker 1: be the shooter, then proceeds to shoot people on camera, like, 1218 01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:05,120 Speaker 1: what are we trying to confirm here? People? I am 1219 01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:07,800 Speaker 1: fully aware and this is a different era we live in. 1220 01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:10,800 Speaker 1: People want at tension for every damn thing. Everybody knows 1221 01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:12,280 Speaker 1: they can have an audience, and they will take the 1222 01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:15,080 Speaker 1: opportunity to be in front of an audience every chance 1223 01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:20,600 Speaker 1: they get. Apparently, everything including mass shootings is performative nowadays. Now, 1224 01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:24,120 Speaker 1: I didn't watch this video. There's absolutely no part of 1225 01:00:24,160 --> 01:00:26,320 Speaker 1: me that wants to see people get shot in real life. 1226 01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:28,880 Speaker 1: This ain't a movie, dog, okay, And I'm cool on 1227 01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:31,480 Speaker 1: witnessing things like that. But I did listen to the 1228 01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:35,600 Speaker 1: audio of Armando talking leading up to the shooting. And 1229 01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 1: I'm playing this because I want you to hear how 1230 01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:40,360 Speaker 1: gleeful this young man sounds to do what it is 1231 01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:46,200 Speaker 1: he's about to do. Listen, I'm gonna be the shooter 1232 01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:53,800 Speaker 1: of Westgate, so let's get this done. He sounds like 1233 01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:56,960 Speaker 1: he's going to try out a new Hamburger everybody's been 1234 01:00:57,080 --> 01:00:59,920 Speaker 1: raving about. Okay, Like like, this shouldn't sound like a 1235 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:03,400 Speaker 1: routine thing for him to do, Okay. I'm reading the 1236 01:01:03,560 --> 01:01:06,520 Speaker 1: article on the Daily News describing the video, and it 1237 01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:09,600 Speaker 1: says he flashed his beer can and showed his guns 1238 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,200 Speaker 1: in the backseat of his car, and he said, let's 1239 01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:15,760 Speaker 1: get this done. Like, young man, you're not going to work, okay, 1240 01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:18,240 Speaker 1: You're not about to mow a lawn or go tear 1241 01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:20,479 Speaker 1: down the frame of a house. Let's get this done. 1242 01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:23,960 Speaker 1: Sounds like you're an essential delivery driver who got a 1243 01:01:24,040 --> 01:01:26,760 Speaker 1: long day ahead of him delivering packages the people, and 1244 01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:28,919 Speaker 1: you just want to get it done. Let's get this done, okay. 1245 01:01:29,200 --> 01:01:33,400 Speaker 1: You are attempting to give yourself a pep talk to 1246 01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:37,480 Speaker 1: go do a mass shooting. I'm just confused. Now. Almando 1247 01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:39,800 Speaker 1: went on to shoot three people. As of right now, 1248 01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:42,720 Speaker 1: one of the people injured is in critical condition. Two 1249 01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:45,880 Speaker 1: others were expected to survive following the shooting. Thank god 1250 01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:49,360 Speaker 1: for that. Okay. Now, in the video, the Daily Mail reports, 1251 01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:52,560 Speaker 1: this guy stood over one of his victims, a young lady, 1252 01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:56,600 Speaker 1: and said society is bullsh Okay. The woman pleads, I 1253 01:01:56,680 --> 01:01:59,600 Speaker 1: have nothing to do with that. You already got me, dude. 1254 01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:01,680 Speaker 1: Let me let me hear that for a second. Let 1255 01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:10,960 Speaker 1: me hear that little clip. You know. Man, Situations like 1256 01:02:11,080 --> 01:02:14,080 Speaker 1: this is why I've been social distancing from large crowds 1257 01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:17,200 Speaker 1: for a long time. This is another reason to stay quarantine. 1258 01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:20,280 Speaker 1: You would think that during this quarantine people would have 1259 01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:24,200 Speaker 1: started to appreciate life more, but nope, not on mindo. 1260 01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:26,320 Speaker 1: And I'm lying to you if I said I don't 1261 01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:29,360 Speaker 1: feel empathy for him, Okay, I feel empathy for his 1262 01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:32,200 Speaker 1: nut ass because I maintain anyone who is in that 1263 01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 1: much pain that they would want to go out and 1264 01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:38,400 Speaker 1: hurt other people like that. They are clearly a really 1265 01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:42,400 Speaker 1: hurt individual themselves. Okay, he's twenty years old and clearly 1266 01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:44,680 Speaker 1: dealing with a lot of trauma. And when you don't 1267 01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:48,120 Speaker 1: deal with your own traumas, you traumatize others. Now, in 1268 01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:51,439 Speaker 1: the perfect world, I have two wishes. One, I wish 1269 01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:54,560 Speaker 1: this young man would have received helpful whatever is you know, 1270 01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:57,680 Speaker 1: clearly going on with him, and there's clearly some psychological 1271 01:02:57,760 --> 01:03:01,920 Speaker 1: issues there. But this world isn't perfect. Okay. If it was, 1272 01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,080 Speaker 1: that man will be sitting with a psychiatrist or being 1273 01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:08,040 Speaker 1: someone's facility, receiving the type of treatment he needs, maybe 1274 01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:10,640 Speaker 1: being put on the type of medication he needs to 1275 01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:13,280 Speaker 1: prevent things like this from happening. That's my first wish. 1276 01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:16,200 Speaker 1: My second wish whenever I hear things like this is 1277 01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:19,320 Speaker 1: I really wish these folks who think society is BS, 1278 01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:21,560 Speaker 1: these folks who don't like it here, who don't want 1279 01:03:21,560 --> 01:03:24,640 Speaker 1: to be here anymore, I really wish they understood that 1280 01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:27,240 Speaker 1: is a personal problem. And if they don't want to 1281 01:03:27,240 --> 01:03:30,080 Speaker 1: be here anymore, don't go taking other people out. Take 1282 01:03:30,120 --> 01:03:32,280 Speaker 1: yourself out. You're the one that doesn't want to be 1283 01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:34,960 Speaker 1: here anymore. That woman you had on the ground telling 1284 01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:38,000 Speaker 1: her society is BS. What does what does she have 1285 01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:40,320 Speaker 1: to do with the way you feel? Okay, she may 1286 01:03:40,400 --> 01:03:43,080 Speaker 1: feel like minus the BS, life is great, So who 1287 01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:45,520 Speaker 1: are you to take that from her? Don't take that 1288 01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:47,960 Speaker 1: anger out on others. If you must take it out 1289 01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:51,200 Speaker 1: on yourself. I personally believe as long as you are breathing, 1290 01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:53,680 Speaker 1: you can reform your life in some way. You can 1291 01:03:53,800 --> 01:03:55,880 Speaker 1: salvage what's left for your life. But I would much 1292 01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:59,040 Speaker 1: rather you harm yourself before you go harm a bunch 1293 01:03:59,080 --> 01:04:03,280 Speaker 1: of innocent people. Okay, Ormando is now in custody, and 1294 01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:05,840 Speaker 1: I guess you got to look at the bright side. 1295 01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:07,800 Speaker 1: There's a bright side. No, no, there's no guess, yes, 1296 01:04:07,880 --> 01:04:09,760 Speaker 1: there is a bright side.

I 1370 01:07:49,880 --> 01:07:52,280 Speaker 1: don't know what to do? Well, Jesse. Part of this 1371 01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:54,520 Speaker 1: is the fact that you really did not completely cut 1372 01:07:54,560 --> 01:07:57,000 Speaker 1: off your ex. So I do feel like you have 1373 01:07:57,120 --> 01:07:59,800 Speaker 1: to take responsibility for that, because are there things that 1374 01:07:59,840 --> 01:08:01,800 Speaker 1: you are hiding from your current boyfriend that your X 1375 01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:05,120 Speaker 1: could have thrown in his face. It's like, Okay, my 1376 01:08:05,280 --> 01:08:10,800 Speaker 1: ex seen him a video, you know, and that Climba 1377 01:08:10,920 --> 01:08:13,840 Speaker 1: threw him off, and it was like the second time. Look, 1378 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:17,360 Speaker 1: I didn't see the video part my current boyfriend. He 1379 01:08:17,439 --> 01:08:20,080 Speaker 1: sent me a screen shot and my ex sent me 1380 01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:21,880 Speaker 1: a screen shot too, but they never sent me the 1381 01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:25,800 Speaker 1: whole message. So I don't know. Look, I'm gonna saying this, 1382 01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:29,920 Speaker 1: I have what was this like an X rated video? Yeah, 1383 01:08:31,040 --> 01:08:33,760 Speaker 1: you gotta understand, of course your current boyfriend feels the way, 1384 01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:36,240 Speaker 1: and you need to be sympathetic towards that, but you 1385 01:08:36,360 --> 01:08:40,200 Speaker 1: will never cut this X off completely. So first of all, 1386 01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:42,479 Speaker 1: nobody wants to see their girlfriend having sex with anybody, 1387 01:08:42,880 --> 01:08:45,599 Speaker 1: and I think that is completely disrespectful that your ex 1388 01:08:45,640 --> 01:08:47,720 Speaker 1: did that, and that that was me, I would have 1389 01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:50,720 Speaker 1: definitely went and did something legally with him. And if 1390 01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:52,519 Speaker 1: that means I got to get a restraining order, if 1391 01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:54,960 Speaker 1: that means that I have to do a police report, 1392 01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:58,519 Speaker 1: because he cannot be distributing these things that you did 1393 01:08:58,560 --> 01:09:01,640 Speaker 1: in private to people publicly. Next thing, you know, he 1394 01:09:01,760 --> 01:09:04,720 Speaker 1: might post that online. That's what I'm thinking, like I'm 1395 01:09:04,800 --> 01:09:07,920 Speaker 1: over here losing or you better nip that in the bud. 1396 01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:11,840 Speaker 1: First things. First, cut off this ex loser boyfriend of yours, 1397 01:09:12,200 --> 01:09:15,320 Speaker 1: stop communicating with him, Take legal actions so that he's 1398 01:09:15,360 --> 01:09:17,559 Speaker 1: not able to post this of you that he knows 1399 01:09:17,600 --> 01:09:20,040 Speaker 1: that there will be criminal charges against him if he 1400 01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:22,400 Speaker 1: does try to do that. Let your new boyfriend know 1401 01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:25,559 Speaker 1: that you mean business, right because right now he's thinking 1402 01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:27,560 Speaker 1: that you still have feelings for your ex. Now he 1403 01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:29,760 Speaker 1: don't seen y'all having sex, even though I'm sure he 1404 01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:31,639 Speaker 1: didn't want to have to see that, and he knows 1405 01:09:31,680 --> 01:09:35,640 Speaker 1: you haven't completely cut him off, right, So handle your 1406 01:09:35,720 --> 01:09:38,120 Speaker 1: business so that you can actually be in a new relationship. 1407 01:09:38,160 --> 01:09:40,639 Speaker 1: You have all these loose ends, but take care of yourself, 1408 01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:43,000 Speaker 1: like make sure that he's not able to do these 1409 01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:45,280 Speaker 1: things that will really hurt you because that's what he's 1410 01:09:45,280 --> 01:09:47,080 Speaker 1: trying to do.

I just 1518 01:16:02,640 --> 01:16:04,800 Speaker 1: want to say, I feel like, just from the tone 1519 01:16:04,800 --> 01:16:08,160 Speaker 1: of this conversation already, that you seem very negative and 1520 01:16:08,200 --> 01:16:10,400 Speaker 1: that you put him down. It seems like a first 1521 01:16:10,400 --> 01:16:12,080 Speaker 1: you told us he doesn't work and it hasn't worked 1522 01:16:12,120 --> 01:16:14,639 Speaker 1: in seven years, but he does, he has his own business. 1523 01:16:14,680 --> 01:16:16,160 Speaker 1: Then you told us you don't know what he does, 1524 01:16:16,479 --> 01:16:18,080 Speaker 1: but now you're telling us what he does. And then 1525 01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:20,680 Speaker 1: you also said you kind of love him. So it 1526 01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:24,720 Speaker 1: feels like you have an issue with being supportive or 1527 01:16:24,920 --> 01:16:27,880 Speaker 1: opening up to him and also letting him lean on 1528 01:16:28,040 --> 01:16:31,240 Speaker 1: you when he needs things. Well, I mean I've been 1529 01:16:31,439 --> 01:16:36,600 Speaker 1: leaned on the whole time financially, right, But you do 1530 01:16:36,760 --> 01:16:40,519 Speaker 1: still love him? Yes? What do you need in order 1531 01:16:40,600 --> 01:16:42,639 Speaker 1: for you to want to stay with him? There's way 1532 01:16:42,680 --> 01:16:44,599 Speaker 1: out the pros and cons? Like, what would you need 1533 01:16:44,640 --> 01:16:48,240 Speaker 1: to happen for you to feel like money, I would 1534 01:16:48,320 --> 01:16:51,920 Speaker 1: need the financial support, okay, and that can be stressful. 1535 01:16:51,920 --> 01:16:54,160 Speaker 1: And listen, I get it. You stuck it through for 1536 01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:56,560 Speaker 1: seven years and you're tired of being the one that 1537 01:16:56,640 --> 01:16:58,560 Speaker 1: has to financially hold things down. You want to be 1538 01:16:58,640 --> 01:17:01,880 Speaker 1: taken care of, you want to go on vacation, You 1539 01:17:01,960 --> 01:17:05,080 Speaker 1: want somebody to at least pull their own weight right right, 1540 01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:07,880 Speaker 1: And I know that can be stressful because finances the 1541 01:17:07,960 --> 01:17:10,200 Speaker 1: number one reason that couples argue. So what does he 1542 01:17:10,320 --> 01:17:12,200 Speaker 1: say when you tell him I need you to do 1543 01:17:12,320 --> 01:17:14,680 Speaker 1: something that actually brings something to the table and make 1544 01:17:14,760 --> 01:17:18,320 Speaker 1: some money. He wants me to support him in his business, 1545 01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:22,920 Speaker 1: which you have been and you guys live together. That 1546 01:17:23,120 --> 01:17:25,640 Speaker 1: is great, okay. So maybe what you need to do 1547 01:17:25,800 --> 01:17:28,680 Speaker 1: is stop enabling him by being supportive of him all 1548 01:17:28,720 --> 01:17:31,559 Speaker 1: the time financially. And maybe y'all do need to get 1549 01:17:31,640 --> 01:17:33,880 Speaker 1: your own places so that he is forced to be 1550 01:17:33,960 --> 01:17:36,160 Speaker 1: in a position where he has to earn money and 1551 01:17:36,240 --> 01:17:38,479 Speaker 1: take care of himself because that might only benefit him 1552 01:17:38,760 --> 01:17:41,479 Speaker 1: in the meantime. Maybe it's not a full breakup, but 1553 01:17:41,600 --> 01:17:44,960 Speaker 1: maybe it's more of I'm tired of having to financially 1554 01:17:45,120 --> 01:17:47,800 Speaker 1: be the person that handles everything. So I'm going to 1555 01:17:47,840 --> 01:17:50,559 Speaker 1: take care of myself, spoil myself, and let you get 1556 01:17:50,600 --> 01:17:53,639 Speaker 1: yourself on track, and then I think you can see 1557 01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:57,160 Speaker 1: what he does from there, okay, because I do think 1558 01:17:57,240 --> 01:17:59,200 Speaker 1: seven years is a long time to stick it through. 1559 01:17:59,280 --> 01:18:01,320 Speaker 1: You still love him him, but I can understand the 1560 01:18:01,400 --> 01:18:03,240 Speaker 1: bitterness of having to feel like I have to pay 1561 01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:05,840 Speaker 1: for everything. I have to support you in everything. You're 1562 01:18:05,880 --> 01:18:08,479 Speaker 1: not pulling your weight around here financially, and if that 1563 01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:10,360 Speaker 1: is something that bothers you, I can't see that just 1564 01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:14,360 Speaker 1: going away. And sometimes we do enable people by always 1565 01:18:14,400 --> 01:18:16,599 Speaker 1: making sure the bills are paid, and then they feel like, Okay, 1566 01:18:16,640 --> 01:18:18,120 Speaker 1: I can continue to do what I need to do. 1567 01:18:18,560 --> 01:18:22,840 Speaker 1: But you guys aren't married, right, No, okay, good So 1568 01:18:23,280 --> 01:18:25,680 Speaker 1: because y'all are not married, I don't think that you're 1569 01:18:25,720 --> 01:18:27,599 Speaker 1: obligated to live with him. And if he takes your 1570 01:18:27,640 --> 01:18:30,280 Speaker 1: relationship seriously and he knows what he needs to do 1571 01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:32,160 Speaker 1: to make things work, then he will step up and 1572 01:18:32,240 --> 01:18:35,960 Speaker 1: do that. I agree. Okay, all right, Well, good luck. 1573 01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:39,280 Speaker 1: I hope you'll work it out. Thank you. It's on 1574 01:18:39,479 --> 01:18:43,240 Speaker 1: him now.

My career started 1740 01:27:58,479 --> 01:28:01,880 Speaker 1: on Wall Street and I was lucky my first job, 1741 01:28:01,960 --> 01:28:04,280 Speaker 1: I got a really big break in terms of I 1742 01:28:04,360 --> 01:28:06,760 Speaker 1: was assistant to a cash manager and what his job 1743 01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:08,840 Speaker 1: was to manage the company's money. It was about one 1744 01:28:08,880 --> 01:28:11,960 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars a day, but another company was trying 1745 01:28:12,000 --> 01:28:14,280 Speaker 1: to take us over. I was young, but he still 1746 01:28:14,360 --> 01:28:16,720 Speaker 1: thought I knew his job best, so he gave me 1747 01:28:16,840 --> 01:28:20,280 Speaker 1: that responsibility. So I did that job for many years, 1748 01:28:20,320 --> 01:28:23,400 Speaker 1: which was great, but then Wall Street wasn't clicking for me. 1749 01:28:24,280 --> 01:28:27,240 Speaker 1: I knew finance. I've written since I think I came 1750 01:28:27,280 --> 01:28:28,840 Speaker 1: out of the womb, so I wanted it to go 1751 01:28:28,920 --> 01:28:31,960 Speaker 1: into financial journalism. So I literally called the Wall Street 1752 01:28:32,040 --> 01:28:34,560 Speaker 1: Journal with that story and they bought it and I 1753 01:28:34,680 --> 01:28:37,040 Speaker 1: started working there as a writer. I moved into their 1754 01:28:37,080 --> 01:28:40,280 Speaker 1: TV department became a producer, so far, things had been 1755 01:28:40,880 --> 01:28:45,439 Speaker 1: easy enough that I hadn't had to face my internal demons, 1756 01:28:45,479 --> 01:28:47,559 Speaker 1: so to speak, that we're going to hamper my career. 1757 01:28:47,600 --> 01:28:50,439 Speaker 1: Because the rubber really hit the road for me when 1758 01:28:50,479 --> 01:28:52,560 Speaker 1: I moved from that producer role to wanting to be 1759 01:28:52,680 --> 01:28:57,639 Speaker 1: in front of the camera and to move into network 1760 01:28:57,760 --> 01:29:00,400 Speaker 1: level business news. You encounter some one that a lot 1761 01:29:00,439 --> 01:29:02,960 Speaker 1: of us have heard of, Roger Ales, And I think 1762 01:29:03,000 --> 01:29:05,280 Speaker 1: the first thing he ever said to me kind of 1763 01:29:05,360 --> 01:29:07,200 Speaker 1: defined a lot of what happened to me. He looked 1764 01:29:07,200 --> 01:29:09,120 Speaker 1: at me and he said, I'm going to close my 1765 01:29:09,240 --> 01:29:12,040 Speaker 1: eyes and I'm going to imagine what someone who's good 1766 01:29:12,080 --> 01:29:14,880 Speaker 1: with money looks like. Now I'm going to open my eyes. 1767 01:29:15,000 --> 01:29:19,280 Speaker 1: It didn't look like you. Wow. So I very defiantly 1768 01:29:19,360 --> 01:29:21,360 Speaker 1: told him that he was going to have to change 1769 01:29:21,400 --> 01:29:24,240 Speaker 1: his definition of what a business news reporter looked like. 1770 01:29:24,439 --> 01:29:27,040 Speaker 1: And I went to war and I got you know, 1771 01:29:27,479 --> 01:29:29,479 Speaker 1: I just got myself to a level. I got jobs 1772 01:29:29,520 --> 01:29:32,720 Speaker 1: at CBS, and one thing that I would run into 1773 01:29:32,840 --> 01:29:36,160 Speaker 1: there is I did great being a reporter and business 1774 01:29:36,200 --> 01:29:40,080 Speaker 1: correspondent for the national shows. But those networks make a 1775 01:29:40,120 --> 01:29:42,719 Speaker 1: lot of their money off the affiliates and the Southern 1776 01:29:43,160 --> 01:29:45,600 Speaker 1: and a lot of Midwestern affiliates just wouldn't air me. 1777 01:29:46,560 --> 01:29:48,760 Speaker 1: So they would come to CBS and say, you know, 1778 01:29:48,800 --> 01:29:51,560 Speaker 1: we're not airing her business segment. So they were like 1779 01:29:51,680 --> 01:29:54,040 Speaker 1: Roger Al's, Yeah, they couldn't. You know, it's not even 1780 01:29:54,120 --> 01:29:56,519 Speaker 1: like I can go to HR and complain. They just couldn't. 1781 01:29:56,920 --> 01:30:00,519 Speaker 1: So I had to find more interesting story. I had 1782 01:30:00,520 --> 01:30:02,960 Speaker 1: to find different angles on stories. We're here, we have 1783 01:30:03,040 --> 01:30:04,599 Speaker 1: to be twice as better. I had to be ten 1784 01:30:04,680 --> 01:30:07,240 Speaker 1: times as good. And I was able to keep myself 1785 01:30:07,280 --> 01:30:10,160 Speaker 1: at a level I worked, you know, CNN, PBS, the 1786 01:30:10,280 --> 01:30:13,080 Speaker 1: Today's Show. I got into all those places, but it 1787 01:30:13,200 --> 01:30:15,680 Speaker 1: was very clear to me. It wasn't clear to me 1788 01:30:15,760 --> 01:30:17,840 Speaker 1: actually what a toll that was taken on my self 1789 01:30:18,040 --> 01:30:23,640 Speaker 1: esteem and my self confidence. So it's really just believing 1790 01:30:23,720 --> 01:30:26,519 Speaker 1: in yourself and you're you're gonna evolve no matter what's 1791 01:30:26,560 --> 01:30:29,000 Speaker 1: going on in your mind, and just staying true to 1792 01:30:29,120 --> 01:30:31,960 Speaker 1: that and finding what you're passionate about and it does happen, 1793 01:30:32,520 --> 01:30:34,720 Speaker 1: all right. Wow, See, we didn't know all of that 1794 01:30:35,200 --> 01:30:39,000 Speaker 1: about your journey to get here, and Michelle, we read, well, 1795 01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:40,920 Speaker 1: I read somewhat about your journey. We got the book 1796 01:30:40,960 --> 01:30:42,439 Speaker 1: this morning, so I was trying to go through it 1797 01:30:42,520 --> 01:30:45,559 Speaker 1: as fast as I could. But you have a book 1798 01:30:45,560 --> 01:30:47,560 Speaker 1: out Climb, and you talk about your own journey and 1799 01:30:47,600 --> 01:30:49,080 Speaker 1: how you got to where you got to and how 1800 01:30:49,160 --> 01:30:52,160 Speaker 1: much harder it is for black not just women, but 1801 01:30:52,280 --> 01:30:55,360 Speaker 1: black women have an even tougher time, Yes, breaking into 1802 01:30:55,400 --> 01:30:58,320 Speaker 1: businesses and running businesses and fortune five hundred companies, and 1803 01:30:58,360 --> 01:31:01,560 Speaker 1: you address all of that. So let's talk about your journey. Absolutely. 1804 01:31:01,720 --> 01:31:04,280 Speaker 1: So I started my career in marketing many years ago 1805 01:31:05,400 --> 01:31:08,120 Speaker 1: and in the consumer goods industry, and I determined early 1806 01:31:08,200 --> 01:31:11,480 Speaker 1: on this just wasn't for me. I just didn't feel gratified. 1807 01:31:11,960 --> 01:31:15,080 Speaker 1: So I left that company worked for another organization where 1808 01:31:15,120 --> 01:31:18,519 Speaker 1: I was able to rotate to different functions within that company, 1809 01:31:18,600 --> 01:31:22,479 Speaker 1: So from procurement to finance, to marketing and you name it. 1810 01:31:22,680 --> 01:31:26,360 Speaker 1: And my last rotation was in human resources and strategic planning. 1811 01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:30,120 Speaker 1: So I've been a diversity practitioner in four different industries, 1812 01:31:30,240 --> 01:31:34,920 Speaker 1: from financial services to consumer goods, professional services. I was 1813 01:31:34,960 --> 01:31:37,479 Speaker 1: even an entrepreneur for a short period of time. Why 1814 01:31:37,600 --> 01:31:40,840 Speaker 1: is diversity important in corporations and why was the work 1815 01:31:40,920 --> 01:31:44,760 Speaker 1: that you did so important? Yeah, any organization worth salt, 1816 01:31:44,880 --> 01:31:48,799 Speaker 1: in my view, would need to have a diversity equity 1817 01:31:48,840 --> 01:31:51,080 Speaker 1: and inclusion strategy of some sorts if they want to 1818 01:31:51,120 --> 01:31:53,840 Speaker 1: stay in business. Because what we're talking about is this 1819 01:31:54,000 --> 01:31:56,160 Speaker 1: is a business imperative. This is just not the right 1820 01:31:56,240 --> 01:31:58,439 Speaker 1: thing to do or the nice thing to do. There's 1821 01:31:58,439 --> 01:32:03,240 Speaker 1: an implication organizations that don't embrace diversity strategy because you're 1822 01:32:03,280 --> 01:32:07,120 Speaker 1: talking about innovation and creativity and leveraging the workforce and 1823 01:32:07,240 --> 01:32:12,440 Speaker 1: maximizing and utilizing all the skills and uniqueness that individuals 1824 01:32:12,439 --> 01:32:14,320 Speaker 1: of difference bring to the table. So this is a 1825 01:32:14,400 --> 01:32:17,479 Speaker 1: business strategy. This is no longer about just human capital 1826 01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:21,479 Speaker 1: and people. So in my view, any organization that wants 1827 01:32:21,520 --> 01:32:24,639 Speaker 1: to stay in business needs to embrace diversity and inclusion. 1828 01:32:24,880 --> 01:32:26,320 Speaker 1: But when do we get to the point where we say, 1829 01:32:26,800 --> 01:32:29,519 Speaker 1: part of my language, before those companies, what's role with 1830 01:32:29,600 --> 01:32:31,200 Speaker 1: a lot of the stuff that we own. It's like 1831 01:32:31,280 --> 01:32:34,479 Speaker 1: we always rely on something else instead of doing it ourselves, 1832 01:32:34,640 --> 01:32:37,519 Speaker 1: you know what. I have struggled with that point as 1833 01:32:37,560 --> 01:32:40,640 Speaker 1: well so much and one of the businesses. So I 1834 01:32:40,760 --> 01:32:44,519 Speaker 1: think it's really important that when you invest in businesses, 1835 01:32:44,640 --> 01:32:47,400 Speaker 1: it's not just about marketing to us, it's about doing 1836 01:32:47,520 --> 01:32:50,920 Speaker 1: something back for us. So of all the businesses that 1837 01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:52,640 Speaker 1: I've run, I've tried to do that. One of them 1838 01:32:52,760 --> 01:32:55,160 Speaker 1: is Shame Moisture. What we do is we make sure 1839 01:32:55,200 --> 01:32:57,760 Speaker 1: we are investing in women of color entrepreneurs to have 1840 01:32:57,880 --> 01:33:00,200 Speaker 1: their own business. Another one of the brands that I 1841 01:33:00,320 --> 01:33:03,720 Speaker 1: run is Dove. We are the founding member of the 1842 01:33:03,800 --> 01:33:07,320 Speaker 1: Crown Coalition, and Crown is creating a respectful, open world 1843 01:33:07,360 --> 01:33:11,960 Speaker 1: for natural hair. So we are actively supporting and advocating 1844 01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:15,160 Speaker 1: for change of laws to help us. But yeah, so 1845 01:33:15,800 --> 01:33:19,320 Speaker 1: let's dive more into this though, right because, and we'll 1846 01:33:19,439 --> 01:33:21,760 Speaker 1: use Michelle your book as kind of the center of 1847 01:33:21,800 --> 01:33:24,040 Speaker 1: everything they were talking about. One thing that I thought 1848 01:33:24,120 --> 01:33:27,599 Speaker 1: was interesting you talked about was motherhood and womanhood, right, 1849 01:33:27,720 --> 01:33:30,680 Speaker 1: not being synonymous with each other. So I would like 1850 01:33:30,760 --> 01:33:32,280 Speaker 1: for you to expand on that because I do feel 1851 01:33:32,320 --> 01:33:35,120 Speaker 1: like people are always like, for myself, I don't have children, 1852 01:33:35,240 --> 01:33:37,720 Speaker 1: I'm not married, but it always becomes an issue, oh well, 1853 01:33:37,760 --> 01:33:39,920 Speaker 1: you don't have any kids, so you don't know what 1854 01:33:40,040 --> 01:33:41,880 Speaker 1: it feels like to be this or you're not a 1855 01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:44,679 Speaker 1: real woman until you have kids. And that was something 1856 01:33:44,720 --> 01:33:48,479 Speaker 1: that you experience absolutely, and I still experience it to 1857 01:33:48,560 --> 01:33:51,360 Speaker 1: the stay and I'm over fifty now, so so I 1858 01:33:51,439 --> 01:33:54,400 Speaker 1: am a working executive. I am married, but I don't 1859 01:33:54,439 --> 01:33:58,560 Speaker 1: have children, and that comes with judgment. So and in 1860 01:33:58,680 --> 01:34:03,080 Speaker 1: my view, motherhood does not constitute womanhood. You know, I 1861 01:34:03,200 --> 01:34:05,439 Speaker 1: made a decision a long time ago that children were 1862 01:34:05,479 --> 01:34:07,320 Speaker 1: not in my future. It was a contract that I 1863 01:34:07,400 --> 01:34:09,400 Speaker 1: made with my husband when we were dating, you know, 1864 01:34:09,520 --> 01:34:12,800 Speaker 1: he was my then fiance. It's not for everyone, and 1865 01:34:12,960 --> 01:34:15,280 Speaker 1: so I talk about the judgment that comes with that. 1866 01:34:15,720 --> 01:34:19,400 Speaker 1: I got enough kids for all y'all, How did you? 1867 01:34:19,640 --> 01:34:22,840 Speaker 1: How do you both stand up to that? You know? 1868 01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:24,800 Speaker 1: And for myself, it's like I put it off for 1869 01:34:24,840 --> 01:34:27,400 Speaker 1: a long time because I'm working and that was a 1870 01:34:27,520 --> 01:34:29,640 Speaker 1: priority for me. And so now if I wanted to 1871 01:34:29,680 --> 01:34:32,280 Speaker 1: try to do it, it's late, but I still can 1872 01:34:32,479 --> 01:34:34,280 Speaker 1: if I choose to do that. But I also feel 1873 01:34:34,320 --> 01:34:36,600 Speaker 1: like I'm very confident and happy in the place that 1874 01:34:36,640 --> 01:34:38,360 Speaker 1: I am in life. But just because you're in a 1875 01:34:38,400 --> 01:34:41,320 Speaker 1: relationship doesn't mean that your whole, you know what I mean. 1876 01:34:41,680 --> 01:34:43,240 Speaker 1: And I think people think that in order for you 1877 01:34:43,280 --> 01:34:45,439 Speaker 1: to be whole, you have to be married, and I 1878 01:34:45,479 --> 01:34:49,160 Speaker 1: don't think that's necessarily true. Now, Acy, let's talk about 1879 01:34:49,240 --> 01:34:52,160 Speaker 1: you for a second and mentorship. So we talk about 1880 01:34:52,200 --> 01:34:54,680 Speaker 1: the importance of mentors. Have you had mentors to get 1881 01:34:54,720 --> 01:34:57,560 Speaker 1: to where you got to at UNIM I have. I 1882 01:34:57,680 --> 01:35:00,040 Speaker 1: have had tons of mentors, and I even like, I 1883 01:35:00,160 --> 01:35:03,840 Speaker 1: think beyond mentors, mentors or people you get insight from, 1884 01:35:04,040 --> 01:35:06,320 Speaker 1: they kind of show you the ropes. But I really 1885 01:35:06,360 --> 01:35:10,880 Speaker 1: benefited from sponsors, who are people that have said, I 1886 01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:12,680 Speaker 1: want you in this job and I'm going to make 1887 01:35:12,720 --> 01:35:16,720 Speaker 1: it happen. So one of my first big jobs a 1888 01:35:16,880 --> 01:35:19,360 Speaker 1: company that I worked for and retired from after twenty 1889 01:35:19,400 --> 01:35:22,559 Speaker 1: five years, the big job was to be a general 1890 01:35:22,640 --> 01:35:25,479 Speaker 1: manager and there had never been a black woman as 1891 01:35:25,479 --> 01:35:28,760 Speaker 1: a general manager. One of my sponsors said, before I 1892 01:35:28,880 --> 01:35:32,439 Speaker 1: was a general manager, maybe three or four years before Acy, 1893 01:35:33,280 --> 01:35:35,120 Speaker 1: I think you're talented and I want you to be 1894 01:35:35,200 --> 01:35:37,560 Speaker 1: one of my general managers. So before you do that, 1895 01:35:37,760 --> 01:35:40,280 Speaker 1: I want you to go do this one job. And 1896 01:35:40,479 --> 01:35:43,280 Speaker 1: sure enough, three or four years later, she plucked me 1897 01:35:43,400 --> 01:35:45,800 Speaker 1: even before I thought I was ready. You know, before 1898 01:35:45,840 --> 01:35:49,320 Speaker 1: I was ready, I was the marketing director for CoverGirl 1899 01:35:49,360 --> 01:35:51,759 Speaker 1: and running a bunch of makeup brands, having a blast, 1900 01:35:52,080 --> 01:35:53,960 Speaker 1: and she plucked me to be a general manager in 1901 01:35:54,000 --> 01:35:56,320 Speaker 1: another business. And I thought, I love what I'm doing. 1902 01:35:56,360 --> 01:35:58,720 Speaker 1: I'm not ready, And she was like Missy I said, 1903 01:35:58,800 --> 01:36:01,960 Speaker 1: this is for you. So I've had mentors, but really 1904 01:36:02,040 --> 01:36:05,280 Speaker 1: what's made a difference from me are sponsors who believed 1905 01:36:05,320 --> 01:36:08,720 Speaker 1: in me when no one else necessarily would pull up 1906 01:36:09,120 --> 01:36:11,920 Speaker 1: a black woman for a big role, and because she 1907 01:36:12,120 --> 01:36:14,960 Speaker 1: believed in me, it carried so much weight and helped 1908 01:36:15,000 --> 01:36:19,840 Speaker 1: me be success be successful. Studies have shown that women 1909 01:36:19,920 --> 01:36:22,800 Speaker 1: and or people of color are typically over mentored and 1910 01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:26,960 Speaker 1: under sponsored. So AC is absolutely correct. We we don't 1911 01:36:27,000 --> 01:36:30,040 Speaker 1: need mentors. We need individuals in the room who can 1912 01:36:30,120 --> 01:36:32,479 Speaker 1: make decisions, who are influential, who are powerful, who can 1913 01:36:32,560 --> 01:36:35,360 Speaker 1: make it happen for us. Now, and have you ever 1914 01:36:35,439 --> 01:36:37,920 Speaker 1: had a sponsor? I haven't had a mentor. I don't 1915 01:36:37,920 --> 01:36:39,479 Speaker 1: think I've ever had a No, I haven't had a 1916 01:36:39,560 --> 01:36:42,559 Speaker 1: mental or sponsor. Well you never had. Well, DJ Clue 1917 01:36:42,600 --> 01:36:44,120 Speaker 1: was kind of your mentor, who wasn't my mentor. He 1918 01:36:44,240 --> 01:36:47,000 Speaker 1: just kind of just told me about DJ. But he 1919 01:36:47,080 --> 01:36:51,240 Speaker 1: didn't guy me and show me this is DJA. That's 1920 01:36:51,240 --> 01:36:52,840 Speaker 1: what he basically said. He was like a DJ and 1921 01:36:52,920 --> 01:36:55,519 Speaker 1: he you know, but I didn't have a mentor. Um, 1922 01:36:55,720 --> 01:36:58,040 Speaker 1: I kind of figured it out on my own. Um. Luckily, 1923 01:36:58,120 --> 01:37:01,760 Speaker 1: I'm one of those hard workers, and I definitely didn't 1924 01:37:01,760 --> 01:37:03,679 Speaker 1: have a sponsor in real estate. I have a mentor 1925 01:37:03,800 --> 01:37:05,600 Speaker 1: now that that shows me and guides me when it 1926 01:37:05,680 --> 01:37:07,439 Speaker 1: comes to things. But when it came to this industry, 1927 01:37:07,920 --> 01:37:11,200 Speaker 1: nobody mentored me. Do we need to be more proactive 1928 01:37:11,240 --> 01:37:15,280 Speaker 1: and asking for mentorship or sponsorship or are we supposed 1929 01:37:15,280 --> 01:37:19,000 Speaker 1: to be approaching people and saying, hey, I really sponsorship 1930 01:37:19,240 --> 01:37:22,000 Speaker 1: is hard, and you know Michelle my dear for Michelle 1931 01:37:22,160 --> 01:37:24,840 Speaker 1: is an expert on this and what she does. But 1932 01:37:25,080 --> 01:37:26,960 Speaker 1: you have to find out what works for you. I 1933 01:37:27,200 --> 01:37:30,160 Speaker 1: find that for me, you have to earn it, but 1934 01:37:30,320 --> 01:37:32,840 Speaker 1: you need the exposure to earn it because we're not 1935 01:37:33,000 --> 01:37:37,760 Speaker 1: always in the room. And so I've found I've gotten 1936 01:37:37,840 --> 01:37:40,680 Speaker 1: sponsors from people who I've worked directly for, so they 1937 01:37:40,800 --> 01:37:44,880 Speaker 1: know me and so they feel confident that I can 1938 01:37:44,920 --> 01:37:47,120 Speaker 1: do the next job. At the same time, if we 1939 01:37:47,240 --> 01:37:50,240 Speaker 1: just leave it to chads, it may not happen. So 1940 01:37:50,920 --> 01:37:55,040 Speaker 1: some companies have official programs where they have sponsorship and 1941 01:37:55,120 --> 01:37:59,800 Speaker 1: mentor programs that cultivate relationships so someone can structurally get 1942 01:37:59,840 --> 01:38:02,160 Speaker 1: to know you and put you in a position. The 1943 01:38:02,280 --> 01:38:04,160 Speaker 1: other thing I would say is I believe we have 1944 01:38:04,280 --> 01:38:08,120 Speaker 1: an obligation to be sponsors and mentors because we have 1945 01:38:08,240 --> 01:38:10,400 Speaker 1: to create critical masks. So it starts that there are 1946 01:38:10,439 --> 01:38:12,000 Speaker 1: a few of us, but we have to bring people 1947 01:38:12,040 --> 01:38:15,920 Speaker 1: along and be committed to putting them. You know, other 1948 01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:18,560 Speaker 1: women of color or other women or other people of 1949 01:38:18,640 --> 01:38:21,880 Speaker 1: color and big important jobs. So you could mentor someone else, 1950 01:38:21,920 --> 01:38:23,720 Speaker 1: Oh I do, I definitely I have. I have a 1951 01:38:23,800 --> 01:38:26,640 Speaker 1: bunch of people that I mentor young DJs and and 1952 01:38:26,960 --> 01:38:30,840 Speaker 1: actually have this. Uh. Her name is Mercedes Walker. She 1953 01:38:31,000 --> 01:38:35,400 Speaker 1: was actually a basketball coach and um, she was a 1954 01:38:35,439 --> 01:38:37,240 Speaker 1: coach member when me and Chris Rock got into it. 1955 01:38:37,680 --> 01:38:42,600 Speaker 1: She was the other coach on the other team. His 1956 01:38:42,720 --> 01:38:44,920 Speaker 1: daughter and my daughter go to compete in school. So 1957 01:38:45,000 --> 01:38:47,960 Speaker 1: I was coaching. Um, you know, we was talking and 1958 01:38:48,120 --> 01:38:52,000 Speaker 1: we became good friends. And I just seen just how 1959 01:38:52,080 --> 01:38:54,599 Speaker 1: much intellect she had, how smart she was, the things 1960 01:38:54,680 --> 01:38:57,040 Speaker 1: that she did, and I've seen something that she was 1961 01:38:57,080 --> 01:38:58,320 Speaker 1: doing and I think she could take it to a 1962 01:38:58,439 --> 01:39:00,880 Speaker 1: bigger place if she had, if she to help. So 1963 01:39:01,000 --> 01:39:02,760 Speaker 1: I brought her into my company. And I guess you 1964 01:39:02,800 --> 01:39:04,439 Speaker 1: could call her a sponsor because I pay her, but 1965 01:39:05,040 --> 01:39:08,840 Speaker 1: that's a sponsorsor. And I brought her into my company 1966 01:39:08,920 --> 01:39:10,840 Speaker 1: and what she's been able to do for my company 1967 01:39:11,080 --> 01:39:14,719 Speaker 1: in the last like four months has been like just ridiculous. 1968 01:39:14,880 --> 01:39:17,519 Speaker 1: Let's talk about negotiating salaries, because that is something that 1969 01:39:17,600 --> 01:39:19,519 Speaker 1: I always stressed that black women need to do more. 1970 01:39:19,560 --> 01:39:22,360 Speaker 1: A lot of times we get offered you know what 1971 01:39:22,479 --> 01:39:24,400 Speaker 1: our pay is going to be, and we just accept 1972 01:39:24,479 --> 01:39:26,840 Speaker 1: it and we say, okay, well accept the offer, or 1973 01:39:26,880 --> 01:39:29,120 Speaker 1: we don't go in and negotiate for a raise. So 1974 01:39:29,320 --> 01:39:31,200 Speaker 1: what's some advice that you can give when it comes 1975 01:39:31,240 --> 01:39:34,200 Speaker 1: to that, Because that's something that I personally have had 1976 01:39:34,240 --> 01:39:38,160 Speaker 1: to experience and do. I would strongly encourage everyone to 1977 01:39:38,240 --> 01:39:41,280 Speaker 1: go into these conversations well informed. Do your homework beforehand. 1978 01:39:41,560 --> 01:39:45,360 Speaker 1: There's glassdoor dot com and other websites and resources out 1979 01:39:45,400 --> 01:39:48,320 Speaker 1: there that can give you the range in terms of 1980 01:39:48,360 --> 01:39:50,160 Speaker 1: the industry and the work that you're going to be doing. 1981 01:39:50,479 --> 01:39:54,560 Speaker 1: I'd also say talk to someone in human resources. I 1982 01:39:54,640 --> 01:39:57,120 Speaker 1: have friends in my ecosystem who I will call to say, 1983 01:39:57,560 --> 01:40:00,679 Speaker 1: this is the the offer that I I just received. 1984 01:40:00,760 --> 01:40:02,719 Speaker 1: What do you think? This is where mentors and sponsors 1985 01:40:02,760 --> 01:40:04,880 Speaker 1: come into play, because I will run things by them 1986 01:40:05,640 --> 01:40:08,240 Speaker 1: as well. And then lastly, it's not just about dollars 1987 01:40:08,320 --> 01:40:11,280 Speaker 1: and cents. It's the full package. So when you're negotiating 1988 01:40:11,320 --> 01:40:13,320 Speaker 1: the deal. There are other things that you can also 1989 01:40:13,400 --> 01:40:16,719 Speaker 1: look for, like you know, French benefits, you know, paid 1990 01:40:16,800 --> 01:40:20,040 Speaker 1: time off, working from home. I mean, so all of 1991 01:40:20,120 --> 01:40:23,320 Speaker 1: those things that don't necessarily have a value associated to them, 1992 01:40:23,600 --> 01:40:26,080 Speaker 1: they do have value in terms of the overarching and 1993 01:40:26,240 --> 01:40:32,200 Speaker 1: more comprehensive you know position that you're If you would 1994 01:40:32,200 --> 01:40:35,839 Speaker 1: discuss salaries with each other, it happens in the workplace, 1995 01:40:35,920 --> 01:40:40,840 Speaker 1: at least in mind. Often. I think we should. I 1996 01:40:40,960 --> 01:40:44,439 Speaker 1: think we should. I think it's used against us because 1997 01:40:44,520 --> 01:40:47,680 Speaker 1: we don't. There's a few things in addition to what 1998 01:40:47,800 --> 01:40:49,960 Speaker 1: Michelle said that I would ask always be willing to 1999 01:40:50,080 --> 01:40:52,840 Speaker 1: walk away. Yeah, and so that's one of the things 2000 01:40:52,920 --> 01:40:55,920 Speaker 1: that holds power over us is you know, I have 2001 01:40:56,120 --> 01:40:58,360 Speaker 1: my mother in the back of my head saying, you know, 2002 01:40:58,520 --> 01:41:01,439 Speaker 1: you better be grateful for that good right, right, So 2003 01:41:01,800 --> 01:41:04,439 Speaker 1: you don't want to risk that job, but being willing 2004 01:41:04,520 --> 01:41:06,439 Speaker 1: to walk away will help you know your worth and 2005 01:41:06,479 --> 01:41:09,160 Speaker 1: get paid for your worth. And then the other thing 2006 01:41:09,560 --> 01:41:13,320 Speaker 1: is not make it taboo because the work place will say, 2007 01:41:13,400 --> 01:41:15,639 Speaker 1: don't talk about salary and these are all the rules. 2008 01:41:16,120 --> 01:41:18,600 Speaker 1: But people that don't look like us are talking and 2009 01:41:18,720 --> 01:41:21,400 Speaker 1: they are more informed, and so we've got to break 2010 01:41:21,439 --> 01:41:24,760 Speaker 1: the taboo because we think sometimes it says something about us, 2011 01:41:24,960 --> 01:41:27,240 Speaker 1: we might be bragging. I think we need to move 2012 01:41:27,320 --> 01:41:30,320 Speaker 1: past that and establish a circle, just as Michelle is saying, 2013 01:41:30,360 --> 01:41:33,439 Speaker 1: of the right resources so that we can calibrate and 2014 01:41:33,720 --> 01:41:36,160 Speaker 1: were you know, the stats show that we are paid 2015 01:41:36,240 --> 01:41:41,680 Speaker 1: what sixty four cents on the dollar, so and so 2016 01:41:42,000 --> 01:41:45,720 Speaker 1: it's it's bad. So when we start talking, we get 2017 01:41:45,800 --> 01:41:49,679 Speaker 1: informed like, oh really, so I do think we should 2018 01:41:49,720 --> 01:41:52,880 Speaker 1: talk right. Well, I appreciate that you guys so much 2019 01:41:52,920 --> 01:41:57,400 Speaker 1: for coming to you ladies History Month because this was amazing.
