All right, 595 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 2: let's go to the show page and talk about people's 596 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 2: comments and polls and all that stuff we did over 597 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 2: the last couple of weeks. False Ultimatums was episode five 598 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 2: seventy nine. 599 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:53,440 Speaker 3: It was our feedback show. 600 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 2: The poll was can you be a feminist and support 601 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:02,479 Speaker 2: other causes as well? Because I was saying I noticed 602 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 2: in our discussions people were being very polarizing and a 603 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 2: lot of stuff was getting well, I thought a little 604 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 2: extreme where I felt like, you know what we're framing this, 605 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 2: like if you're a feminist, you have to be one 606 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 2: way and if you're not a feminist in it this way. 607 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,199 Speaker 2: But in actuality, there's feminists that support other causes that 608 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 2: aren't feminism quote unquote, and there's other people that aren't 609 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 2: quarter They wouldn't call themselves a feminist, but they might 610 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,959 Speaker 2: support a cause that feminists are you know, touting at 611 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 2: the time. So you know, it's a lot of crossover. 612 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 2: And I thought that wasn't really being expressed in the discussion. 613 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 2: So that's what we made the poll. Can you be 614 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 2: a feminist and support other causes as well? Yes or no? 615 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 3: Yes? 616 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:50,919 Speaker 2: Eighty six point eleven percent of people say yes you 617 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 2: can and uh thirteen, About fourteen percent of people say. 618 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 3: Nah, you're a feminist. That's the all thing you can 619 00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 3: fuck with Donald nothing else. 620 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,439 Speaker 2: And Sparkster says, feminists, LGBT activists and so on have 621 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,239 Speaker 2: their causes that they pay the most attention to, but 622 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,640 Speaker 2: it doesn't mean that they can't care about other causes. 623 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 2: And it makes perfect sense to me, why not give 624 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 2: the brunt of your energy to causes that affect you 625 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 2: and those you love the most. As it's been stayed 626 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,719 Speaker 2: at time and time again, there's more to feminism than 627 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 2: this mainstream face white women. There are issues that have 628 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 2: different effects on women depending on their race status, social status, 629 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 2: gender identification, and so on. In other words, there's just 630 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 2: too much shit going on for a person to try 631 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 2: to champion every cause. I'm a black man who is 632 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 2: paid by the constant shit that black women have to 633 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 2: go through, so I do my best support stand up 634 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 2: for them. But there are many areas women's issues that 635 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 2: I have little to no understanding of, and I'm talking 636 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 2: just about within the black community. A similar reoccurring conversation 637 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 2: was had over at twelve a while ago, and the 638 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 2: point was made that it's okay to choose your battles. 639 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 2: It's okay to say I picked this to be the 640 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 2: ground I'll fight on. A Pakistani woman who survives an 641 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 2: acid attack is probablyrobably gonna care more about making the 642 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 2: streets safer for women than rather than or not whether 643 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 2: or not more than whether or not we gets decriminalized. 644 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 2: But that doesn't necessarily mean she doesn't care about the 645 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 2: issue at all. I guess my point is that everyone 646 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 2: has to choose for themselves which ground they'll fight on. 647 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 2: We can choose to fight on multiple fronts and concentrate 648 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 2: on one, but in the end, we're all trying to 649 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 2: win the same war. Yeah, man, for the most part, 650 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 2: I agree with what you're saying. Like, honestly, I think 651 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 2: it's just human nature. When labels get like put out there, 652 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 2: people just have to be like, I'm just have a 653 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 2: strong take on this. But I feel like the most 654 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 2: of us don't have strong takes on shit. Like most 655 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 2: of us are like, Okay, I can see where you're 656 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 2: coming from. Like most people are trying to make me 657 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 2: y nay, Okay. 658 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 5: That Like a lot of times for the average person, 659 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 5: that determines how hard they care aren't concerned about something 660 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 5: is if it immediately directly affects them and not just that. 661 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 2: But most people are just trying to be reasonable, Like 662 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 2: most people aren't going through society like I'm gonna be 663 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 2: as evil as shit today, son. Most people are being like, Okay, 664 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 2: this seems like a reasonable course of action that will 665 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 2: affect me in this, that way, and the other, and 666 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 2: that's what they do, you know, Like most people aren't 667 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 2: sitting around like how do I set back women today? 668 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 2: You know, I'm not gonna care about you now. There's 669 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 2: privilege and there's all this other stuff people want to 670 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 2: talk about, intersexual, sextionality and stuff. But for the most part, 671 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 2: I would think that maybe people are callous towards those 672 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 2: that you know aren't in their. 673 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 3: Quote unquote circle. 674 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 2: But most people, in my opinion, aren't malicious with that shit. 675 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 2: So it just depends on you know, how you want 676 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 2: to attack them and how you want to what you 677 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 2: feel are the best methods to to like bring people 678 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 2: into the fold. And I think the worst method, or 679 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 2: not my least preferred method, is to just chastise someone 680 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 2: that I believe is on my side. Like that's my 681 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 2: least preferred method because a lot of times I feel 682 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 2: like it just drives a wedge and it doesn't really work. 683 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 2: But that's my personal opinion. I know other people that 684 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 2: feel like, hey, if you are on my side, then 685 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 2: you I need to be able to cust your ass 686 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 2: out and you need to respect it and understand it 687 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 2: and you want to cussing you out right. But some 688 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 2: you know, I think it leads a lot of defensiveness, 689 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 2: a lot of divisiveness and shit, that's what I've seen 690 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 2: in my lifetime. But you know, I'm sure there's some 691 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 2: people that are able to just like push all their 692 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 2: product ego to the side and be like, I. 693 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 3: Accept what you just said and I understand. You know. 694 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 3: It just depends on the person. 695 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, the person, the personality. 696 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 2: And I don't know, everybody has different ways on how 697 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 2: they deal and how they look at all these big 698 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 2: major social issues. 699 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 4: And I don't know. 700 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 2: I'm of the culture of we can do this together, 701 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 2: but we have to respect each other. 702 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 4: You ain't gonna be cussing me out. 703 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll see. 704 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 2: Prince Oron left a comment on episode five eighty we 705 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 2: were slaves. 706 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 3: Well, we talked with Chris Lambert. 707 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 2: And we talked about like slavery movies and twelve years 708 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 2: of Slave and all this stuff. And Prince Ron says, 709 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 2: help them pronouncing that right, Prince Celle Lauren, Prince Laurn, 710 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 2: somebody that's close. 711 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 3: Ain't no spacing there. 712 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 2: Of course, kids today know about slavery, they just not 713 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 2: as hurt as older generations. I personally do not consider 714 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,719 Speaker 2: it that important. The real problem is that most places 715 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 2: refuse to discuss the issues that these young black kids 716 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:28,719 Speaker 2: will face as they grow older. I would prefer that 717 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 2: my nieces and nephews be aware of the future obstacles 718 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 2: that then possess astutent knowledge of the past, because we 719 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 2: all know that these nigglas ain't smart enough to do both. Yeah, 720 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 2: I think that's another case of false ultimatum, like, hey, 721 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 2: you can learn about your past and the details of 722 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 2: it and not be and also learn how of current 723 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 2: issues or race and stuff. Not to mention a lot 724 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 2: of times, because you learn about certain things in the past, 725 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 2: it is what gives you light in to what the 726 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 2: fuck is going on now. Like I remember when I 727 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 2: watched this documentary about drugs and it talked about how 728 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 2: the imagery of black men was used to get certain 729 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 2: drugs outlawed, like cocaine and stuff, and the reason they 730 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 2: were saying it was like, well, if you do opium, 731 00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 2: if a black man gets it, he will not be 732 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 2: able to stop himself from raping specifically white women. 733 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 3: Oh yeah. 734 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 4: And it was no like scientific evidence, of course not. 735 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 2: But also there was no like they weren't trying to 736 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 2: say like, oh, let's let's couch this in a different way. 737 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 3: It was no. 738 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 2: It was graphic depictions of big ass, strong black men 739 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 2: running after white women and shit, and it was like 740 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 2: this shit got to pass, right, and that was one 741 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 2: of the ways that they got a lot of anti 742 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 2: drug legislation through was from the fear of black people. 743 00:33:55,640 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 2: So fast forward to twenty thirteen when Ronisia McBride's getting shot. 744 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 3: On someone's porch for approaching wild. 745 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 2: Black and you see that that fear hasn't gone anywhere, 746 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 2: and it's also been couched and used as a method 747 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 2: of of, you know, legislation, a method of getting people incarcerated, 748 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:26,840 Speaker 2: a method of keeping communities from coming together. That fear 749 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 2: has been used for so long that it behooves you 750 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 2: to know where it came from in order to know 751 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 2: where it's going and where and where it's at right now. 752 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 2: So getting to be able to identify something, because you 753 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 2: can't identify something if you don't even know what you're 754 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,880 Speaker 2: looking for, right And I think, like my point wasn't 755 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 2: that kids today aren't learning it. My point was, it's 756 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 2: the same as when we were kids. They didn't want 757 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 2: to teach us this shit. Everything I learned about slavery 758 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 2: I learned from somewhere outside of my school, pretty much, 759 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,920 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. They never went into detail 760 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 2: in a lesson plan about slavery. 761 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 3: It was two paragraphs. I remember that shit. 762 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,200 Speaker 2: It's always been this way where you need to be 763 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 2: interested in it on your own outside of class or 764 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 2: you won't learn it. That was my point during that conversation. 765 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 2: And then I said, also, the kids now are more 766 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,880 Speaker 2: advantage than we were, So they actually can go to 767 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:29,319 Speaker 2: Wikipedia or. 768 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 3: The own library, the online library, the like. 769 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 2: They don't even have to go Like, they can find 770 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 2: a book, they can go to Amazon, they can get 771 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 2: it directly sent to their Kindle reader. This is like 772 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 2: they are more advantaged than us to know more shit. 773 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 2: So I just hate when people shit on these kids, 774 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:50,479 Speaker 2: cause it's like they are just as like if nothing else, 775 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 2: they'll probably learn more in an afternoon of the internet 776 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 2: quote unquote than I would in a month of trying 777 00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 2: to go look up to do it decimal system and 778 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:03,959 Speaker 2: find a book and all that ship. 779 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,359 Speaker 3: So yeah, I just wanted to give them some credit 780 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:07,719 Speaker 3: because I. 781 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:09,839 Speaker 2: Feel like people just ship on the kids for no like, 782 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 2: I don't know, man, people are so hard on these kids. 783 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 3: Man, So they're just kids.

It's one of those things like why 801 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 5: should I have to go outside of the system to 802 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 5: learn this. 803 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, I agree, but I was just saying 804 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:56,839 Speaker 2: that that has always been. 805 00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 4: That's true. That's not like that's right. 806 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 2: When people talk about it, they act like it's new 807 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 2: that but these kids ain't learning about slavery. 808 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:05,240 Speaker 3: We didn't learn about slavery. 809 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 2: Nobody was taking us to the side, like, listen, this 810 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 2: month of school is gonna be about slavery.

Thirty percent of our audience believes that black 855 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:19,560 Speaker 2: children in America today have no idea that they'll with slavery. 856 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,840 Speaker 5: Do they think it's a fairy tale making that slavery 857 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:26,880 Speaker 5: shit up?

I read 877 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 2: the book fourteen years ago, and it really impacted my 878 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 2: life because even though I was told about slavery, reading 879 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,360 Speaker 2: the book or watching a movie make some more graphic 880 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 2: and concrete. Since it is a memoir written by Solomon Northrop, 881 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 2: first hand account of slavery. Kids aren't expected to read 882 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,359 Speaker 2: slave narratives or and even few know they exist. So 883 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:38,960 Speaker 2: those first handed counts of slavery y'all left to history 884 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 2: and are replaced by abstract understandings of slavery. Seeing that 885 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,160 Speaker 2: you are black and understanding what blackness means. I think 886 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 2: of two very different things. You know what, man, I 887 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 2: kind of. 888 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 3: Agree with you. I do think people need to know. 889 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 2: Slave narratives, thaves, stories, and stuff I don't know about. 890 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 2: Specifically Twelve Years of Slave. I know that some people 891 00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 2: will say, like, yes, Twelve Years Slave is the definitive 892 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 2: slavery movie and experience. Actually, I actually asked Professor Blair 893 00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 2: Kelly if she never responded to me on Twitter, but 894 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,359 Speaker 2: if that would be the movie she would recommend. It's 895 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:16,080 Speaker 2: like the movie, you know, if people were only going 896 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 2: to see that one movie, and she didn't answer. But 897 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 2: I saw the movie last week. I think that it 898 00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 2: is important that everybody see or know or read about 899 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:34,720 Speaker 2: something about what really slavery look like, you know, historical 900 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:38,279 Speaker 2: depictions of it. At the same time, I feel like 901 00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:41,840 Speaker 2: I wouldn't want to revel in it either, you know 902 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:42,319 Speaker 2: what I mean. 903 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:44,000 Speaker 3: It just depends like. 904 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 2: I would not question someone's blackness or try to demean 905 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:56,240 Speaker 2: them for not wanting to see every movie or every 906 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 2: experience that. 907 00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 3: Comes out about slavery, which I think happens a. 908 00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:02,239 Speaker 4: Lot and it's a ton off for a lot of people. 909 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:03,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was actually a big joke we had on 910 00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:05,719 Speaker 2: the show with the whole like you need to do 911 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:08,319 Speaker 2: a blackness a simon, you won't be black, because that 912 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:10,520 Speaker 2: was the gist of the joke last year, which was 913 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:14,520 Speaker 2: that people were so pressed to be like, you have 914 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:16,640 Speaker 2: to go see Jangle, you have to go do this 915 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:18,360 Speaker 2: because a black movie is about slavery. 916 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 3: You need to see red tails. 917 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 2: That we were like, Okay, people are acting like it's 918 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 2: a mandatory assignment. 919 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 3: If you don't. 920 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 2: See this shit, you are no longer black. And I 921 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 2: think people do go overboard that way too. But that's 922 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 2: our plight in this country as black people historically looking 923 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 2: for our place, looking for our belonging, our future, our story, 924 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:43,239 Speaker 2: our history. I feel like we do have like all 925 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 2: these very demotional responses that are very like strong you know, 926 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 2: that are very strong towards this type of you know, 927 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:59,000 Speaker 2: these stories. Malcolm el says, contrary to popular belief, Black 928 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,759 Speaker 2: History Month isn't man natory in every school anymore. I 929 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 2: live in Illinois but very close to the Wisconsin border, 930 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 2: and the schools around here do not recognize it. If 931 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:08,640 Speaker 2: parents want that to be taught to their children in 932 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:10,320 Speaker 2: this area. They have to do it themselves. 933 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 3: I believe it. I absolutely believe that because I think 934 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:17,960 Speaker 3: I think. 935 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:22,480 Speaker 2: Black History Month is still a thing quote unquote that 936 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 2: people are aware of. But I can definitely understand people 937 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,919 Speaker 2: not like being irresponsible and not wanting to teach kids 938 00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:33,400 Speaker 2: around that shit. The other thing I did forget about 939 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 2: is and I do want to give Karen credit for this, 940 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 2: because she brought it up, but she was saying how 941 00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:49,720 Speaker 2: they were like there's like an almost in a racing 942 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:52,640 Speaker 2: of slavery from the textbooks and stuff like that, and 943 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:54,840 Speaker 2: there is I remember we covered the article where they 944 00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 2: wanted to change the middle passage name to like the 945 00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 2: American the you're American trade something or whatever right time, 946 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:14,359 Speaker 2: And there is a willful there's a like, there's a definite, definitive, 947 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 2: uh push to remove the idea of this historical injustice 948 00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:28,279 Speaker 2: from the minds and memories of people. I agree with that, 949 00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:31,840 Speaker 2: and I do believe that that's happening, and I should 950 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:33,720 Speaker 2: not have been so dismissive with that when we're talking. 951 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:37,480 Speaker 2: I just I guess in my mind, I can't imagine 952 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:42,640 Speaker 2: black people having black children and feeling like, I'm not 953 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 2: even gonna teach them anything about their history. 954 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:49,239 Speaker 5: And and I think that for me, it's just like 955 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 5: you say, it's different and you and back to some 956 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:54,040 Speaker 5: of the things you said, you're you're dealing with people 957 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 5: who are aware about slavery and no slavery, but like 958 00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 5: you say, they don't feel handicapped by slavery. A lot 959 00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:04,720 Speaker 5: of black people feel disconnected all completely from slavery because 960 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 5: they never had to experience they experiences, so as far 961 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 5: as their concern, it's a part of my history. But 962 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:13,680 Speaker 5: you're dealing with people who don't want to deal with 963 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 5: a lot of negativity. And they're like, hey, that's negative, 964 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 5: and I don't want to deal with it. I don't 965 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:19,759 Speaker 5: want to deal with the pain, so I refuse to 966 00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 5: teach my kids. Just say I refuse to teach my kids. 967 00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 5: And then you have a lot of school systems with 968 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:27,880 Speaker 5: what I call whitewashing of it and erasing it, because 969 00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:29,840 Speaker 5: if you talk about it, you have to admit that 970 00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 5: America is flowed, and. 971 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:33,719 Speaker 4: Lord knows, we don't want to admit that a man 972 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 4: good flowled. 973 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 2: And it's one of those things where when you have 974 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:39,239 Speaker 2: that hand in hand and you have a generation of 975 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:41,120 Speaker 2: parents that are not teaching it, and then you have 976 00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:45,080 Speaker 2: a generation of school systems that are slowly erasing and 977 00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:48,439 Speaker 2: changing books and re editing and rewriting children's books where 978 00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:50,680 Speaker 2: you don't say niggro in it a nigga and and 979 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 2: all that. 980 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,960 Speaker 4: Type of stuff. To me, this is the To me, 981 00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 4: it becomes a problem. 982 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 5: You know, It's one of them things where no, I 983 00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 5: understand what you were saying, No, you won't get it, 984 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:05,480 Speaker 5: where you get a true understand a true. 985 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:09,839 Speaker 4: I'd rather you get something than nothing, per se. 986 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:13,719 Speaker 5: And it's one of those things where eventually, as time 987 00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,279 Speaker 5: goes on, I could see it getting to the point 988 00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:18,239 Speaker 5: where you get nothing about it. 989 00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 4: And it's one of those. 990 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:22,520 Speaker 5: Things where unless you actually say I'm gonna teach my children, 991 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 5: your children will not even be introduced to it, or 992 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:26,680 Speaker 5: it might not even be brought. 993 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:28,360 Speaker 4: To their attention that such thing existed. 994 00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:30,360 Speaker 5: And it's one of those things where people are just 995 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:34,800 Speaker 5: making the assumption that everybody knows about slavery. Everybody understands 996 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:36,799 Speaker 5: that black people were slaves and it was changed and 997 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 5: things like that. And it's one of those things where 998 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:43,759 Speaker 5: as African Americans here in our country got rights and 999 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,479 Speaker 5: got freedoms and things like that. A lot of people 1000 00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:48,600 Speaker 5: want to get beyond that, which is true, and you 1001 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 5: want to get beyond that. But at the same time, 1002 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,800 Speaker 5: you cannot erase history because the thing about the history 1003 00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 5: that history affects the actions and the laws and the 1004 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:59,799 Speaker 5: legistration that we have today, and also that history will 1005 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,200 Speaker 5: around and repeat itself if you have people with the 1006 00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,640 Speaker 5: lack of knowledge and like an understanding of why things happen. 1007 00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:07,759 Speaker 5: This is just my opinion, and that's why, you know, 1008 00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 5: I feel strong for the fact that, like you say, 1009 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:13,120 Speaker 5: if we had children, we're probably teach them about that. 1010 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:16,000 Speaker 5: We wouldn't teaching no woes it's me and all that stuff, 1011 00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:17,719 Speaker 5: but we would teach them that you did. This is 1012 00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:19,239 Speaker 5: a part of your life, This is a part of 1013 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:21,799 Speaker 5: your history. This is where you came from. And when 1014 00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:24,200 Speaker 5: you don't teach people this is where you came from, 1015 00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:25,680 Speaker 5: how do they know where they're going? 1016 00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:28,319 Speaker 3: All right? I agree with everything you just said. 1017 00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:33,920 Speaker 2: Also, I think for me, the real issue that I'm 1018 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:37,160 Speaker 2: having with a lot of the people around twelve Years 1019 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:40,520 Speaker 2: of Slave and stuff. And you know, some of the 1020 00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 2: other movies, it's not really that people want you to 1021 00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:45,640 Speaker 2: see them I think it's good when people go see 1022 00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 2: these movies. 1023 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:46,839 Speaker 3: I saw it. 1024 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:53,880 Speaker 2: It's not like, honestly, it was not that bad to me. Like, 1025 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,640 Speaker 2: to be quite honest, I've seen worse than other movies. 1026 00:47:56,760 --> 00:48:01,600 Speaker 2: Like I've seen more graphic shit, I've seen more heinous shit. 1027 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 2: I just think that the fact that it's quote unquote real, 1028 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,200 Speaker 2: it really happened, you know what I mean. The fact 1029 00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:11,640 Speaker 2: that we are never gonna be able to disconnect from 1030 00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:14,279 Speaker 2: this idea that these are our air sistors, this is 1031 00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:14,800 Speaker 2: their story. 1032 00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 3: We are black. 1033 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:22,400 Speaker 2: This is things that white people perpetrated onto black people. 1034 00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:24,680 Speaker 2: We're never gonna be able to erase that. And I 1035 00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:26,480 Speaker 2: think that is too much for a lot of black 1036 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:29,839 Speaker 2: people to deal with. And that's the real issue. It's 1037 00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:32,880 Speaker 2: really not the movie. The movie is not that graphic 1038 00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 2: to me, and I'm being serious, like I've seen horror 1039 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:42,520 Speaker 2: movies that were more graphic than that. But this is 1040 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 2: a horror movie that happened, you know what. But the 1041 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:52,880 Speaker 2: main issue I see around this is people are lying 1042 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 2: when they say they want you to see twelve years 1043 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:59,279 Speaker 2: of Slave and leave it at that. That's bullshit what 1044 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,799 Speaker 2: they really mean. And the reason that people don't want 1045 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,759 Speaker 2: to see it that people are rebelling against it, I 1046 00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:07,799 Speaker 2: think is because what they're really saying is I want 1047 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,359 Speaker 2: you to see twelve years of slave, and I want 1048 00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:14,359 Speaker 2: you to feel a certain way too, like I want 1049 00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,759 Speaker 2: to control your mind about it, like I don't want 1050 00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:19,279 Speaker 2: you to see because I saw it. I live tweeted it, 1051 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:22,080 Speaker 2: I made jokes. I laughed about some of it because 1052 00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:25,960 Speaker 2: I don't really do sad much. So my brain, just 1053 00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:28,359 Speaker 2: immedia is like, Okay, where's the humor in this or else? 1054 00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:31,439 Speaker 2: I'm not watching this shit. And that's just the way 1055 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:34,480 Speaker 2: I deal with shit. But you know when I when 1056 00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:36,319 Speaker 2: you go on Twitter and you see most people talk 1057 00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:45,120 Speaker 2: about it, it's almost very narcissistic because it's a way 1058 00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:47,600 Speaker 2: to shape the conversation and make it about them, because 1059 00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:50,319 Speaker 2: it's like I saw twelve years a slave and this 1060 00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:53,720 Speaker 2: is how I felt and the way it made me feel, 1061 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:56,640 Speaker 2: and this is my take, and I'm such a good 1062 00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:58,960 Speaker 2: person for watching this, and I'm such. 1063 00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:00,640 Speaker 4: A bad person.

It's the Brandy on Twitter and 1206 00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 2: the we had one concept one comment. Prince Lawn says, 1207 00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:52,239 Speaker 2: I have two major problems with this story. Firstly, I'm 1208 00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:58,920 Speaker 2: assuming he's talking about Martin. And firstly, I'm amazed when 1209 00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:01,720 Speaker 2: it is deemed appropriate for a black man for black 1210 00:57:01,760 --> 00:57:04,400 Speaker 2: men to be savages. If Martin would have beat the 1211 00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:07,440 Speaker 2: breaks off of incognito, everyone would have considered him aggressive 1212 00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:08,480 Speaker 2: and overly sensitive. 1213 00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:11,359 Speaker 3: He was in a no win situation for the jump. Yep. 1214 00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:12,520 Speaker 3: I talk about that out of the time. 1215 00:57:12,520 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 2: If he would have went in there hit that dude 1216 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:17,120 Speaker 2: upside the head with a helmet or maybe beating them 1217 00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:20,760 Speaker 2: to within an inch of his life or shy him whole, no. 1218 00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:23,440 Speaker 3: He would have been out of the league. 1219 00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:26,920 Speaker 2: He would have been considered a problem and not not 1220 00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:30,919 Speaker 2: even close to the victim, and he would It would 1221 00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:32,760 Speaker 2: have been and people would have been like, on some 1222 00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:35,320 Speaker 2: that's a real lass newg you can't say the N word. 1223 00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:37,480 Speaker 2: And I'm glad he didn't handle it in that stereotypical 1224 00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:40,840 Speaker 2: fashion too. Secondly, I listened to Michael Smith saying that 1225 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:43,840 Speaker 2: Martin went out like a sucker. He said, if anywhere 1226 00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:46,520 Speaker 2: was to if anywhere was to cross the line with 1227 00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:49,280 Speaker 2: me in any way, we would have to throw hands. 1228 00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:51,400 Speaker 2: I don't want to judge Smith because I'm not fighting 1229 00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:54,120 Speaker 2: Hugh Douglas either. At the same time, how can he 1230 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:57,920 Speaker 2: not emphasize empathize with Martin at all? I don't understand 1231 00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:01,400 Speaker 2: that I did not hear him say that, but that 1232 00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:05,920 Speaker 2: does seem fucked up because Hugh Douglas basically challenged Michael 1233 00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:08,640 Speaker 2: Smith to a fight and called him like an Uncle 1234 00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:12,520 Speaker 2: Tom and a bunch of shit in front of like 1235 00:58:12,560 --> 00:58:16,840 Speaker 2: an audience at this like journalism event, for I think 1236 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:19,640 Speaker 2: a believable might have been even a national black journalism event. 1237 00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:23,640 Speaker 2: But yeah, Michael Smith ain't throw no hands with Hugh Douglas. 1238 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:27,160 Speaker 2: Security got him out of there, and Hugh Douglas is 1239 00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 2: never on the show again, and that was never discussed. 1240 00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 5: And will me tell you why, because he's a rational, 1241 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:35,920 Speaker 5: reasonable person and it's real easy to somebody throw their 1242 00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:36,840 Speaker 5: hands when your. 1243 00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:37,880 Speaker 4: Job not on the line. 1244 00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:38,440 Speaker 3: Right. 1245 00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:42,680 Speaker 2: And Also, people think football players, and I think, to 1246 00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:46,280 Speaker 2: the detriment of not only the players but also the fans, 1247 00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:50,160 Speaker 2: they feel like football players are supposed to be less intelligent, 1248 00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:54,080 Speaker 2: more brutal, more savage, and behave in more brutal, savage 1249 00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:57,280 Speaker 2: ways that they themselves would not approve of. But for 1250 00:58:57,360 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 2: the purposes of this football player, who they kind honesty 1251 00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:03,440 Speaker 2: is less than a complete human being, it would be 1252 00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:05,560 Speaker 2: fine for him to go upside somebody's head and not 1253 00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:07,280 Speaker 2: go up the proper chain of command to get this 1254 00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:09,760 Speaker 2: guy out of the locker room, because that's what a 1255 00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:10,880 Speaker 2: football player would do. 1256 00:59:10,960 --> 00:59:11,160 Speaker 1: Now. 1257 00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:14,240 Speaker 2: As for me myself, Michael Smith, I would never do that. 1258 00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:15,920 Speaker 2: I would go to management and get this guy out 1259 00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:17,560 Speaker 2: of here. I'm not fighting at my job and I'm 1260 00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:22,520 Speaker 2: not physically assaulting someone for insulting me. But when it 1261 00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:25,000 Speaker 2: comes to the case of his lineman, oh, he better 1262 00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:27,919 Speaker 2: get his ass over there and start fighting. Unless, of course, 1263 00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:30,880 Speaker 2: there's always another thing to caveat to this, Michael Smith 1264 00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:33,000 Speaker 2: could feel that he went out like a sucker himself, 1265 00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:37,640 Speaker 2: which is I've seen people. I've seen men talk about 1266 00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:40,240 Speaker 2: you know, a lot of men struggle with this, like 1267 00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:43,959 Speaker 2: we are bred and raised to have a certain type 1268 00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:49,400 Speaker 2: of mentality where you fight your enemies and whether that 1269 00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:53,640 Speaker 2: be physically whatever, right. And I know there's been situations 1270 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:55,840 Speaker 2: where I was like, I'm not going to fight this 1271 00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:59,480 Speaker 2: person because XX and X like this will be a 1272 00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:02,160 Speaker 2: problem for or this like it's a longer term, it 1273 01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:04,360 Speaker 2: will be a problem. Maybe I'll get banned from the YMCA, 1274 01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:07,280 Speaker 2: maybe they'll file a police report. Maybe I can end 1275 01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:09,600 Speaker 2: up hurting myself, maybe I could get beat up. Maybe 1276 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:12,440 Speaker 2: And there's times where the smart play was not to 1277 01:00:12,480 --> 01:00:13,120 Speaker 2: fight someone. 1278 01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:14,360 Speaker 3: You don't fight. 1279 01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:16,600 Speaker 2: Them, and then you still end up feeling in your 1280 01:00:16,640 --> 01:00:18,320 Speaker 2: back of your mind like I'm a bitch.

This is the core pendragons from the 1438 01:08:38,160 --> 01:08:43,640 Speaker 7: chat room, which I rarely am in because unfortunately I 1439 01:08:43,680 --> 01:08:46,960 Speaker 7: can't sink up the schedule, but basically wanted to combat 1440 01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:53,959 Speaker 7: on Monday's podcast when you slavery, we were slaves basically. 1441 01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:58,000 Speaker 7: I do believe they do teach it in schools, but 1442 01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:01,519 Speaker 7: they it's like the bear the moment. I haven't been 1443 01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:03,880 Speaker 7: out of school that long, but I do remember that 1444 01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:06,479 Speaker 7: like getting sort of like the basic idea, and even 1445 01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:10,200 Speaker 7: you know, Georgia Washington Carver were like, oh yeah, peanut butter. 1446 01:09:10,280 --> 01:09:13,720 Speaker 7: But as I got older, I realized, like, I mean, 1447 01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:15,760 Speaker 7: the man has the National Park for a reason. He 1448 01:09:15,840 --> 01:09:20,080 Speaker 7: sort of went but during the droughts in the Midwest, 1449 01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:22,400 Speaker 7: he kind of he literally went from farm to farm 1450 01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:26,240 Speaker 7: with the pantlet, telling them what they could grow, how 1451 01:09:26,280 --> 01:09:29,280 Speaker 7: they could rotate their crops, all this stuff that basically 1452 01:09:29,320 --> 01:09:34,720 Speaker 7: saved America from a drought. So, you know, you hit 1453 01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:37,040 Speaker 7: the basic, but you don't really get the detail. And 1454 01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:39,880 Speaker 7: I think more importantly than that, they're not peak taught 1455 01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:45,240 Speaker 7: what was what happened before slavey. It was something that 1456 01:09:45,280 --> 01:09:46,560 Speaker 7: I saw on Tumba. 1457 01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:46,760 Speaker 6: The other day. 1458 01:09:46,760 --> 01:09:48,479 Speaker 7: It's like, yeah, you know all this stuff, but what 1459 01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:52,479 Speaker 7: about like we weren't always sleeve. So I think that's 1460 01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:55,920 Speaker 7: the part that's missing, really emphasizing the fact that a 1461 01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:59,240 Speaker 7: fellow was at play because Black Wars, if you will, 1462 01:09:59,680 --> 01:10:04,920 Speaker 7: trade did with England and were in England for a 1463 01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:08,640 Speaker 7: long time. So yeah, it was just my comment on that. 1464 01:10:08,680 --> 01:10:10,960 Speaker 7: And I just also wanted to comment on that story 1465 01:10:11,000 --> 01:10:14,960 Speaker 7: about the racist teacher. And I'm surprised at how many 1466 01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:18,000 Speaker 7: stories I'm hearing about teachers like the one who wouldn't 1467 01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:20,080 Speaker 7: have said, oh, I can't want the kids because I 1468 01:10:20,080 --> 01:10:22,120 Speaker 7: don't like black kids, Like I feel bad for these 1469 01:10:22,200 --> 01:10:24,840 Speaker 7: kids out here with these teachers that don't like those 1470 01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:28,240 Speaker 7: at a racist But anyways, thank you guys, you have 1471 01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:32,280 Speaker 7: a great show.

I don't think this is some brand 1479 01:10:58,240 --> 01:11:00,920 Speaker 2: new ship before it was like, I hate these black kids. 1480 01:11:00,920 --> 01:11:02,559 Speaker 3: Blah blah blah. I hate these. 1481 01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:05,599 Speaker 4: As far as that right. 1482 01:11:05,479 --> 01:11:07,519 Speaker 2: Now, it's like I hate these and wouldn't that also 1483 01:11:07,560 --> 01:11:08,400 Speaker 2: make a funny tweet. 1484 01:11:08,640 --> 01:11:09,599 Speaker 3: Actually it wouldn't. 1485 01:11:09,760 --> 01:11:15,719 Speaker 2: Don't do it as far as before slavery history and stuff. 1486 01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:19,679 Speaker 2: I think what happens is because so many Black people 1487 01:11:19,680 --> 01:11:23,920 Speaker 2: here are disconnected from our roots, and we don't know 1488 01:11:24,160 --> 01:11:29,680 Speaker 2: necessarily where we come from provably, you know, Unlike you 1489 01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:31,320 Speaker 2: know a lot of times you see where like African 1490 01:11:31,320 --> 01:11:33,479 Speaker 2: people come over here, it's like they have a certain 1491 01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:39,200 Speaker 2: more like attachment to like, oh, well, this is my grandfather, 1492 01:11:39,400 --> 01:11:41,559 Speaker 2: he's from here, this is you know, I know which 1493 01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:43,800 Speaker 2: country I'm from, I know all that stuff. And I 1494 01:11:43,800 --> 01:11:45,599 Speaker 2: think a lot of Black people don't know those things. 1495 01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:50,439 Speaker 2: So we view those as just African history lessons. We're 1496 01:11:50,479 --> 01:11:52,880 Speaker 2: taught a lot of stuff about what happened before its slavery. 1497 01:11:53,400 --> 01:11:56,040 Speaker 2: We just don't see it as our history because we 1498 01:11:56,080 --> 01:11:59,439 Speaker 2: don't know for a fact that it is like ours. 1499 01:11:59,520 --> 01:12:04,559 Speaker 2: Like it's like if someone is Irish, they go, I'm Irish, 1500 01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:09,080 Speaker 2: and and I know that I come from this place, Ireland, 1501 01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:11,840 Speaker 2: and I know that these are my ancestors and blah 1502 01:12:11,840 --> 01:12:15,000 Speaker 2: blah blah. But when you talk about Africa, Africa is 1503 01:12:15,160 --> 01:12:17,920 Speaker 2: a lot of different countries with a lot of different 1504 01:12:18,040 --> 01:12:22,120 Speaker 2: historical relevances and a lot of different historical contexts, like 1505 01:12:22,640 --> 01:12:25,280 Speaker 2: different religions, different So I think people look at it 1506 01:12:25,280 --> 01:12:28,439 Speaker 2: and they get almost overwhelmed because it's like, I don't 1507 01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:31,320 Speaker 2: feel like I'm learning about me. I feel like I'm 1508 01:12:31,400 --> 01:12:33,400 Speaker 2: learning about a whole other country. 1509 01:12:35,240 --> 01:12:35,479 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1510 01:12:35,520 --> 01:12:38,880 Speaker 2: That isn't that they would not recognize me as much 1511 01:12:38,880 --> 01:12:41,639 Speaker 2: as I would not recognize them except for skin color. 1512 01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:41,880 Speaker 1: Yep. 1513 01:12:42,200 --> 01:12:43,920 Speaker 3: And I think that's what a disconnect is. 1514 01:12:44,560 --> 01:12:47,200 Speaker 2: I don't think it's just that kids are like, I 1515 01:12:47,240 --> 01:12:49,559 Speaker 2: don't you know, I don't want to learn about Africa. 1516 01:12:49,640 --> 01:12:51,720 Speaker 2: I don't know anything. I really think people feel like 1517 01:12:53,320 --> 01:12:56,480 Speaker 2: learning about Africa to me is like learning about Russia. 1518 01:12:56,840 --> 01:13:01,040 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, yeah, because in their minds away from America 1519 01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:02,080 Speaker 5: and that's that's not me. 1520 01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:03,240 Speaker 4: It's not me. 1521 01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:07,840 Speaker 2: And that's that's as much because we were purposely disconnected 1522 01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:11,080 Speaker 2: from this history and you have to purposely reconnect, like 1523 01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:14,400 Speaker 2: you would have to go maybe pos get DNA test to. 1524 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:15,719 Speaker 4: Get to a family tree. 1525 01:13:15,840 --> 01:13:18,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, like this is not like, this is not it's 1526 01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:21,400 Speaker 2: by design that it was this way. But that is 1527 01:13:21,400 --> 01:13:23,920 Speaker 2: why you find people that don't connect to that ship, 1528 01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:28,040 Speaker 2: because it's like, I, you know, my history started with 1529 01:13:28,920 --> 01:13:31,439 Speaker 2: my ancestors in America, because that's as far back as 1530 01:13:31,479 --> 01:13:37,479 Speaker 2: I know, that's the only and uh, you know some 1531 01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:40,559 Speaker 2: of that. Uh, Like I know, people shop on roots 1532 01:13:40,560 --> 01:13:42,960 Speaker 2: all the time. But one of the things and roots 1533 01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:47,559 Speaker 2: that I did find to be a very poignant point 1534 01:13:47,680 --> 01:13:49,400 Speaker 2: was how they were saying that they wanted to keep 1535 01:13:49,400 --> 01:13:53,840 Speaker 2: the history of Coota Kinte alive through word of mouth 1536 01:13:54,400 --> 01:13:59,000 Speaker 2: because that was that connection back to the African ancestry. 1537 01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:02,880 Speaker 2: And if they would have let that die, no one 1538 01:14:03,040 --> 01:14:06,000 Speaker 2: would have known where they came from. And that was 1539 01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:09,880 Speaker 2: the significance of telling his part of that story over 1540 01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:13,120 Speaker 2: and over to all the kids, making sure they all 1541 01:14:13,240 --> 01:14:18,040 Speaker 2: know that you came from a strong African heritage and 1542 01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:19,839 Speaker 2: you're not just a slave. 1543 01:14:20,760 --> 01:14:21,800 Speaker 3: That was a huge part of that. 1544 01:14:21,920 --> 01:14:24,920 Speaker 2: But you know, but thank you so much for that 1545 01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:27,639 Speaker 2: voicemail man, I was very introspective and good. 1546 01:14:28,320 --> 01:14:29,560 Speaker 3: Last voicemail. 1547 01:14:32,360 --> 01:14:35,759 Speaker 6: Erica from Cleveland just want to say thank you guys 1548 01:14:35,760 --> 01:14:40,519 Speaker 6: for another great week of shows. I pretty much enjoyed everything. 1549 01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:44,639 Speaker 6: I never have a complaint of my racist ass really 1550 01:14:44,680 --> 01:14:49,760 Speaker 6: loved just a Race. Anyway, I wanted to make a 1551 01:14:49,840 --> 01:14:52,479 Speaker 6: kind of one of the episodes talking about the Slave movie, 1552 01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:56,920 Speaker 6: which I also planned on not seen, because do we 1553 01:14:57,160 --> 01:15:00,280 Speaker 6: really need any more slaves movies unless it's Jangle and 1554 01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:04,439 Speaker 6: we're getting retribution. In addition, you mentioned that they're making 1555 01:15:04,520 --> 01:15:07,599 Speaker 6: a remake up Group, and I'm totally against that ship. 1556 01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:13,000 Speaker 6: My thing is, have we run out of ideas? Like 1557 01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:17,240 Speaker 6: do we really need another fucking slaves movie? And people 1558 01:15:17,280 --> 01:15:19,320 Speaker 6: aren't going with the kids need to learn about it. 1559 01:15:19,600 --> 01:15:23,080 Speaker 6: These kids don't give a damn about shit. Okay, how 1560 01:15:23,120 --> 01:15:24,960 Speaker 6: many times have we got to tell these kids that 1561 01:15:25,080 --> 01:15:27,640 Speaker 6: we got our ass deep to vote, we got our 1562 01:15:27,720 --> 01:15:29,479 Speaker 6: ass beach just to go to school and have a 1563 01:15:29,560 --> 01:15:31,920 Speaker 6: quality education, and they don't even take advantage of it. 1564 01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:35,360 Speaker 6: So it's like, what's another movie about slavery going to 1565 01:15:35,400 --> 01:15:41,120 Speaker 6: teach them that they're already ignoring? And pretty much again, 1566 01:15:42,280 --> 01:15:44,920 Speaker 6: You're a great show and I love it. I listened 1567 01:15:44,920 --> 01:15:48,599 Speaker 6: every morning, and I finally mastered laughing in my cuticle 1568 01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:51,200 Speaker 6: and not getting in trouble. All right, guys, have a 1569 01:15:51,200 --> 01:15:52,439 Speaker 6: great week. 1570 01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:56,280 Speaker 2: Thank you so much, Erica. The first thing I will 1571 01:15:56,360 --> 01:16:03,559 Speaker 2: say is I think that I think people are going 1572 01:16:03,600 --> 01:16:07,400 Speaker 2: overboard now the other way where they feel like there's 1573 01:16:07,479 --> 01:16:09,120 Speaker 2: too many movies about slavery. 1574 01:16:09,160 --> 01:16:11,800 Speaker 3: I don't think there's too many. I really don't. 1575 01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:15,519 Speaker 2: I think people, I think we feel it more because 1576 01:16:15,760 --> 01:16:19,599 Speaker 2: we're so we're black, you know what I mean, So 1577 01:16:19,640 --> 01:16:22,000 Speaker 2: we feel that way. But I really don't think there's 1578 01:16:22,040 --> 01:16:24,840 Speaker 2: too many movies about slavery like that. 1579 01:16:25,120 --> 01:16:27,880 Speaker 5: And also I think because of the era that we're 1580 01:16:27,920 --> 01:16:31,040 Speaker 5: in with everything is instant, because you know, years ago, 1581 01:16:31,400 --> 01:16:34,960 Speaker 5: most people wouldn't know about the movie about slavery until 1582 01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:37,040 Speaker 5: it literally came out or by word of mouth. But 1583 01:16:37,120 --> 01:16:39,639 Speaker 5: now you can find out about the slavery movie eighteen 1584 01:16:39,720 --> 01:16:42,040 Speaker 5: years before it's made. So a lot of people are like, 1585 01:16:42,120 --> 01:16:44,559 Speaker 5: y'all comeing out with another slave movie, another slave movie 1586 01:16:44,600 --> 01:16:46,919 Speaker 5: in twenty twenty, another slave movee in twenty fourteen. 1587 01:16:47,120 --> 01:16:48,439 Speaker 4: God damn, there's too many of them. 1588 01:16:48,479 --> 01:16:49,960 Speaker 5: It's just one of those things where we live in 1589 01:16:49,960 --> 01:16:52,920 Speaker 5: an era where everywhere you constantly bombarded with stuff. Make 1590 01:16:53,040 --> 01:16:54,800 Speaker 5: as many of them as you won't. It don't mean 1591 01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:56,280 Speaker 5: I got to see them, but make as many as 1592 01:16:56,320 --> 01:16:56,679 Speaker 5: you won't. 1593 01:16:56,760 --> 01:17:01,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, how many are there? Because people keep saying that, Like, honestly, 1594 01:17:01,960 --> 01:17:04,040 Speaker 3: in the last two years. I can only think Django 1595 01:17:04,120 --> 01:17:04,400 Speaker 3: and this. 1596 01:17:07,320 --> 01:17:10,879 Speaker 2: But I've heard that statement, like every movie is about slavery. 1597 01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:15,280 Speaker 2: It's like, no, no, not. The Butler's not about slavery. 1598 01:17:16,160 --> 01:17:21,400 Speaker 2: The fruit Vale Station is not about slavery. What else 1599 01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:26,760 Speaker 2: came out this year that was quote unquote black? Uh, 1600 01:17:27,479 --> 01:17:30,880 Speaker 2: Like it's a lot of these movies. I think they 1601 01:17:30,920 --> 01:17:34,320 Speaker 2: aren't about slavery, But we feel it, man, because it's 1602 01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:39,720 Speaker 2: our history on screen, and our history has some we 1603 01:17:39,760 --> 01:17:44,280 Speaker 2: all our history always has the overcoming part because it's 1604 01:17:44,360 --> 01:17:47,320 Speaker 2: integra to our history in America, Like it's the truth, 1605 01:17:48,200 --> 01:17:51,360 Speaker 2: you know, like shit was fucked up, We're still here. 1606 01:17:51,479 --> 01:17:54,479 Speaker 3: We must have overcome something, you know what I mean. 1607 01:17:54,600 --> 01:17:57,320 Speaker 2: But I think that we just don't want to hear 1608 01:17:57,400 --> 01:18:00,600 Speaker 2: it because we're tired of seeing black people in a 1609 01:18:00,680 --> 01:18:03,759 Speaker 2: light where you know, they have to overcome a struggle 1610 01:18:03,800 --> 01:18:07,479 Speaker 2: for something. As the only stories that really are taken 1611 01:18:07,640 --> 01:18:11,240 Speaker 2: seriously in Hollywood for black people, by which I mean 1612 01:18:11,320 --> 01:18:14,920 Speaker 2: like when there's Oscar contention and stuff like that, those 1613 01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:16,800 Speaker 2: are the movies that are gonna get brought up, these 1614 01:18:16,960 --> 01:18:20,040 Speaker 2: historical movies where black people were struggling, like The Help 1615 01:18:20,120 --> 01:18:24,800 Speaker 2: and stuff like that, and we don't really have the 1616 01:18:24,880 --> 01:18:26,759 Speaker 2: balance necessarily. 1617 01:18:27,800 --> 01:18:29,920 Speaker 3: In a lot of people's eyes. But I feel like. 1618 01:18:31,840 --> 01:18:35,120 Speaker 2: One of the reasons I want to go see The 1619 01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:41,439 Speaker 2: Best Man Holiday is because I want to support black 1620 01:18:41,479 --> 01:18:48,479 Speaker 2: people doing stuff that isn't necessarily always a history a 1621 01:18:48,680 --> 01:18:53,559 Speaker 2: historically accurate movie.

He should 1891 01:32:16,520 --> 01:32:19,320 Speaker 5: have hit him, because I can't hit a woman, or 1892 01:32:19,439 --> 01:32:21,280 Speaker 5: I can't hit a man, or I can't you know, 1893 01:32:21,479 --> 01:32:25,040 Speaker 5: so because of this, I'm gonna go to the other extreme. 1894 01:32:24,760 --> 01:32:27,400 Speaker 2: Be like, well s, you're just punched you. That's when 1895 01:32:27,439 --> 01:32:30,640 Speaker 2: niggas and niggas just punch you. You like, that's not realistic. Essentially, 1896 01:32:30,720 --> 01:32:35,000 Speaker 2: in this organization, that guy was his manager. Essentially, if 1897 01:32:35,040 --> 01:32:37,559 Speaker 2: you look at like a corporation, he was basically his manager. 1898 01:32:37,920 --> 01:32:40,000 Speaker 2: We've all had managers we didn't like. We didn't go 1899 01:32:40,040 --> 01:32:41,960 Speaker 2: punch him in the face. We went if we had 1900 01:32:42,080 --> 01:32:45,639 Speaker 2: felt harassed and we felt they crossed some legal bounds, 1901 01:32:45,680 --> 01:32:48,639 Speaker 2: we probably went to HR most of us probably because 1902 01:32:50,120 --> 01:32:51,160 Speaker 2: and I don't want. 1903 01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:53,120 Speaker 3: To say that you're a bit for doing that. All 1904 01:32:53,240 --> 01:32:53,640 Speaker 3: you're not. 1905 01:32:53,880 --> 01:32:56,120 Speaker 2: I know other people will say that and they can't 1906 01:32:56,160 --> 01:32:58,680 Speaker 2: say that. And like I said, it's not mutually exclusive. 1907 01:32:59,040 --> 01:33:00,760 Speaker 2: I can understand why some people will think he got 1908 01:33:00,840 --> 01:33:04,680 Speaker 2: pumped out, Well, he's a sucker for going out like this. 1909 01:33:05,479 --> 01:33:07,920 Speaker 2: I can't understand that angle. I just didn't want to 1910 01:33:07,960 --> 01:33:10,599 Speaker 2: hear it. In regards to letting somebody call you a nigger, 1911 01:33:11,160 --> 01:33:14,679 Speaker 2: I don't understand how the fuck you got pumped out 1912 01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:17,599 Speaker 2: because you said you're not gonna call me the n work. 1913 01:33:17,640 --> 01:33:21,519 Speaker 5: And also something else me and you kind of talked 1914 01:33:21,560 --> 01:33:25,240 Speaker 5: about something you hit. This is bigger than bullying. This 1915 01:33:25,280 --> 01:33:28,400 Speaker 5: is workplace harassment. And I think people are framing it 1916 01:33:28,439 --> 01:33:30,959 Speaker 5: as bullying because when you start talking about workplace harassment, 1917 01:33:30,960 --> 01:33:32,840 Speaker 5: guess what it got to change the working environment and 1918 01:33:32,880 --> 01:33:34,080 Speaker 5: people who are not trying to. 1919 01:33:34,040 --> 01:33:37,360 Speaker 4: Hear motherfuckers change the NFL working environment?

You just have accepted it, and 1933 01:34:08,120 --> 01:34:09,639 Speaker 5: nobody wants to challenge the norm. 1934 01:34:09,800 --> 01:34:13,479 Speaker 2: We have romanticized the NFL locker room into the gladiator cages, 1935 01:34:13,760 --> 01:34:17,400 Speaker 2: and that is why people are that are on the 1936 01:34:17,439 --> 01:34:20,919 Speaker 2: outside looking in are trying to be protective of that environment, 1937 01:34:21,479 --> 01:34:25,160 Speaker 2: like they feel an attachment to what they've romanticized as 1938 01:34:25,920 --> 01:34:29,760 Speaker 2: just guys going around being brutes, and they don't want 1939 01:34:29,800 --> 01:34:33,000 Speaker 2: to have They don't want to believe that these guys 1940 01:34:33,080 --> 01:34:35,360 Speaker 2: will be beholding to the same rules that all the 1941 01:34:35,439 --> 01:34:39,559 Speaker 2: rest of us in society are, where you can't get 1942 01:34:39,600 --> 01:34:41,720 Speaker 2: away with just doing any fucking thing you want to 1943 01:34:41,760 --> 01:34:44,800 Speaker 2: at work, you know what I mean, Like you're gonna 1944 01:34:44,800 --> 01:34:46,559 Speaker 2: have to treat each other like human beings that people 1945 01:34:46,560 --> 01:34:49,919 Speaker 2: don't want to.
