<v Speaker 1>oh yeah, we're gonna be there. I'm gonna be there

0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:30.440
<v Speaker 1>on the fourth, and then I'm gonna be there on

0:04:30.440 --> 0:04:34.440
<v Speaker 1>the eighteen, and Flame, you kept telling the whole time, Nick,

0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:37.000
<v Speaker 1>because we joke about it, like hey, we we we

0:04:37.080 --> 0:04:39.160
<v Speaker 1>want to be in the same space. We talked about this,

0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:42.840
<v Speaker 1>right but f him, you said, you said last month,

0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:45.000
<v Speaker 1>keep an eye on that. Let's let's kind of hold

0:04:45.040 --> 0:04:48.640
<v Speaker 1>off on that for now. Well, the numbers are crazy here,

0:04:48.680 --> 0:04:51.080
<v Speaker 1>and my issue is not with all this mean along.

0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:53.400
<v Speaker 1>We're just talking about this, this whole suggestive that you

0:04:53.440 --> 0:04:55.840
<v Speaker 1>don't fly. We suggest that you don't fly when you

0:04:55.880 --> 0:04:59.520
<v Speaker 1>stay home these Americans you cannot tell I said this before.

0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:01.240
<v Speaker 1>We do not like to be told what to do.

0:05:01.880 --> 0:05:03.680
<v Speaker 1>You have to be one way or the other. The

0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:05.760
<v Speaker 1>governors of each they should have shut down the airports

0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:08.159
<v Speaker 1>if they were their numbers were astronomical. I'm not blaming

0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:10.720
<v Speaker 1>Newsom for people making doing They're making their own decisions.

0:05:11.040 --> 0:05:12.800
<v Speaker 1>But if you had to shut down the airport, a

0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:14.760
<v Speaker 1>lot of options would have been taken away because don't

0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.320
<v Speaker 1>nobody want to drive from here all the way to Florida.

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:20.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm just saying so they would. We would have saved

0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:23.200
<v Speaker 1>some people, and according to the statistics, by the end

0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:26.040
<v Speaker 1>of January this month, a whole lot of other people

0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:27.800
<v Speaker 1>will be caught up and in a place that they

0:05:27.800 --> 0:05:29.680
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't have been, or they would did not have to

0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:31.960
<v Speaker 1>be in if they have set their ass down and

0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:35.200
<v Speaker 1>stayed at home. We talk, you're talking about the lockdown.

0:05:35.279 --> 0:05:37.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, the UK has decided they are locking down

0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:41.240
<v Speaker 1>until the middle of February. That came down today from

0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:43.840
<v Speaker 1>Boris Johnson. But you know you're talking about what we're

0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:47.080
<v Speaker 1>doing here. Remember what your president said this week. So

0:05:47.520 --> 0:05:51.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, my president retired four years ago. I don't

0:05:51.360 --> 0:05:55.400
<v Speaker 1>have a president until January. I think I'm supposed to

0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:57.840
<v Speaker 1>have a president by then. But we were talking about

0:05:57.839 --> 0:06:00.840
<v Speaker 1>those COVID death numbers. Remember how he call those, uh

0:06:01.680 --> 0:06:04.800
<v Speaker 1>fake news. Yeah. Yeah, here's the hypocrisy of the fake

0:06:04.920 --> 0:06:07.120
<v Speaker 1>news and the fake COVID death numbers. Some of the

0:06:07.200 --> 0:06:09.280
<v Speaker 1>people that passed away, may you rest in peace. I

0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:11.880
<v Speaker 1>bet you some of your family members voted for this nigga,

0:06:12.040 --> 0:06:16.799
<v Speaker 1>not once, but twice, and you are the collateral damage

0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:19.720
<v Speaker 1>behind voting for him of somebody who not too who

0:06:19.800 --> 0:06:23.960
<v Speaker 1>did not take control of this this virus. So prayers

0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:25.840
<v Speaker 1>to you your family members. Just look, go look at

0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:27.600
<v Speaker 1>yourself in the mirror. If you voted for Donald Trump

0:06:27.600 --> 0:06:29.440
<v Speaker 1>twice and when your family members there from the COVID

0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:31.480
<v Speaker 1>and he called it a hoax, go look, go to

0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:34.080
<v Speaker 1>the nearest mirror, and the first person you see slap

0:06:34.200 --> 0:06:39.720
<v Speaker 1>the ship out of I got that person, dog. No,

0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:41.160
<v Speaker 1>we were just talking about that. I just want to

0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:43.400
<v Speaker 1>make sure people know that we're talking about specifically. Anybody

0:06:43.440 --> 0:06:46.600
<v Speaker 1>missed it. Those remarks came from President Trump just as

0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:48.919
<v Speaker 1>the number of COVID nineteen deaths in the United States

0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:52.480
<v Speaker 1>past three hundred fifty thousand, and this is according to

0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:56.640
<v Speaker 1>information compiled by JOHNS. Hopkins, who has been charting this. Uh,

0:06:56.720 --> 0:06:59.279
<v Speaker 1>the university has been charting this from the very beginning.

0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:02.520
<v Speaker 1>Can I good question? Is everything COVID death? Now there's

0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:06.480
<v Speaker 1>no more car accidents and your hysms heart attacks. Uh

0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:12.560
<v Speaker 1>remember because now every time somebody dies, everything is COVID, COVID, COVID.

0:07:12.600 --> 0:07:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Everything is just not COVID. I think that's just what's

0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:18.680
<v Speaker 1>being reported on. Oh yeah, yeah, that's the that's what's

0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:20.240
<v Speaker 1>hot right now in the news. So that's what we're

0:07:20.240 --> 0:07:23.040
<v Speaker 1>gonna hear about before we jump to our topics. So

0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:25.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm you would want to sound off on a couple

0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:26.600
<v Speaker 1>of things. You want to talk about the Georgia Center

0:07:26.680 --> 0:07:30.000
<v Speaker 1>runoff election, and you're talking about Mitch McConnell and Nancy Pelosi.

0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Nancy Pelosi and Mr McConnell's houses were both vandalized this weekend.

0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:37.920
<v Speaker 1>I believe that Nancy Pelosi's was This is my conspiracy theory.

0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:39.960
<v Speaker 1>So to my disclaimer, you can agree with me if

0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:42.120
<v Speaker 1>you want you if you don't want to, I'm giving them. Uh.

0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:45.760
<v Speaker 1>Nancy Pelosi's house was targeted by probably some people who

0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:48.480
<v Speaker 1>don't care for her. Miss McConnell's I think was just

0:07:48.600 --> 0:07:50.760
<v Speaker 1>deployed to throw us off to think that they only

0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:52.760
<v Speaker 1>did it to Nancy, so we would only think that

0:07:52.840 --> 0:07:55.120
<v Speaker 1>they only did it to Nancy Pelosi. This is my theory.

0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:56.680
<v Speaker 1>How y'all think, what y'all want to think? And what

0:07:56.760 --> 0:07:58.440
<v Speaker 1>else did you ask me about all? Georgia. Let me

0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:00.560
<v Speaker 1>tell you something, Georgia, y'all need to show up tomorrow

0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:03.040
<v Speaker 1>if you don't need nothing else. I have said over

0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:06.080
<v Speaker 1>these the course of this year or these eight nine months,

0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:08.480
<v Speaker 1>if you haven't got the proof in the putting this weekend,

0:08:08.520 --> 0:08:10.920
<v Speaker 1>with these audio tapes that have been released that he

0:08:11.000 --> 0:08:15.240
<v Speaker 1>spoke to you guys, Secretary State. What's his name? Yeah,

0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:19.920
<v Speaker 1>I can't say the name, the nickname, Burger, Hamburger, Cheese, Burger, cat, Burglar,

0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:22.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't know ship anything. I love I love him

0:08:23.240 --> 0:08:25.920
<v Speaker 1>because this is what he did. What because Niklas love

0:08:26.000 --> 0:08:28.160
<v Speaker 1>to get on me about me not trusting Fauci. So

0:08:28.320 --> 0:08:30.520
<v Speaker 1>let me give you the synopsis. It's not that I

0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:33.520
<v Speaker 1>don't think that Dr Fauci is accredited doctor, but when

0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:36.000
<v Speaker 1>you had the opportunity in real time to speak to

0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:38.480
<v Speaker 1>help save these three hundred and fifty five thousand American

0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:41.760
<v Speaker 1>laughs and counting that have died, you should have. This

0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:44.640
<v Speaker 1>was the only one who stood up in his face

0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:48.839
<v Speaker 1>and say, hey, he's completely Republican. He completed, does not

0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:51.360
<v Speaker 1>go for the Democrats, but he wanted to be fair,

0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:53.640
<v Speaker 1>so in Trump's face, he turned around and put the

0:08:53.640 --> 0:08:55.839
<v Speaker 1>ship and say, this is what I'm saying. So all

0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:58.600
<v Speaker 1>the books that you want to write Bolton and Michael

0:08:58.640 --> 0:09:01.160

<v Speaker 1>week we'll see how this plays out. But I am

0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:32.640

<v Speaker 1>And I'm talking not just to the people that we

0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:11.560
<v Speaker 1>do know. I'm talking to like some of our listeners

0:11:11.600 --> 0:11:15.040
<v Speaker 1>Hannah Vesper, people in Georgia who have given us information.

0:11:15.280 --> 0:11:17.720
<v Speaker 1>Hats off. You guys were pushing it, pushing it, pushing it. Okay,

0:11:18.200 --> 0:11:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Nick's kick off our first topic, because hey guys, let's

0:11:23.080 --> 0:11:25.480
<v Speaker 1>get it going. We were talking about kind of keeping

0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:27.800
<v Speaker 1>on that theme of how we as a community really

0:11:27.880 --> 0:11:29.959
<v Speaker 1>just need to do as much as we can to empower.

0:11:30.480 --> 0:11:32.320
<v Speaker 1>We were talking about life insurance. Flame. We were talking

0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:34.240
<v Speaker 1>about how life insurance is a must and it's a

0:11:34.440 --> 0:11:36.480
<v Speaker 1>it can be an uncomfortable topic for some people, but

0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:38.400
<v Speaker 1>we said we needed to bring this up for laugh

0:11:38.480 --> 0:11:40.400
<v Speaker 1>and learn. Yeah. So, I mean we kind of had

0:11:40.440 --> 0:11:44.280
<v Speaker 1>a brief discussion about this yesterday and I told you know, Nick,

0:11:44.320 --> 0:11:46.280
<v Speaker 1>you and Flame, I said, I don't have life insurance,

0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.520
<v Speaker 1>but partly because you know, I'm still living with my

0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:52.199
<v Speaker 1>parents at this point in time for personal reasons, and um,

0:11:52.360 --> 0:11:53.760
<v Speaker 1>you guys are both like, well, you're at home, you

0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:56.520
<v Speaker 1>don't need life insurance. Um. But just kind of looking

0:11:56.559 --> 0:11:58.719
<v Speaker 1>through some things and you know, kind of getting you

0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:00.920
<v Speaker 1>guys is feedback. I realized that this is something very

0:12:01.000 --> 0:12:03.040
<v Speaker 1>important that we all need to have. You know, some

0:12:03.160 --> 0:12:04.839
<v Speaker 1>people don't think that I don't want to pay for this.

0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:06.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to do that, but in the long run,

0:12:06.559 --> 0:12:09.440
<v Speaker 1>it's really just to protect yourself. So, UM, I'm doing

0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:11.280
<v Speaker 1>my research. You know. Kind of you guys kind of

0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:13.439
<v Speaker 1>sparked a light bulb for me. I'm doing some of

0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:16.079
<v Speaker 1>my research and seeing what my options are. UM. And

0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:18.319
<v Speaker 1>I saw some of the data that you provided Nick,

0:12:18.400 --> 0:12:20.680
<v Speaker 1>and you said in two thousand three, virtually ninety seven

0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:26.240
<v Speaker 1>of the population purchase term life insurance. Correct, Yeah, absolutely,

0:12:26.559 --> 0:12:29.560
<v Speaker 1>and basically learned that just came down to for those

0:12:29.600 --> 0:12:32.760
<v Speaker 1>who don't know, they're really like two basic types of insurance.

0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:35.319
<v Speaker 1>And there was a time when the hurdle to have

0:12:35.840 --> 0:12:39.240
<v Speaker 1>life insurance was onerous, right, people couldn't afford to. You

0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:40.679
<v Speaker 1>were just trying to make it the best way that

0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:44.040
<v Speaker 1>you could. But life insurance really has become affordable because

0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:47.880
<v Speaker 1>the marketplace has expanded, much like how Senator Pelosi has

0:12:47.920 --> 0:12:51.319
<v Speaker 1>talked about the need to expand the the space for

0:12:52.080 --> 0:12:55.400
<v Speaker 1>health insurance and Medicare and medicaid and all of those things.

0:12:55.440 --> 0:12:59.160
<v Speaker 1>So life insurance is affordable for people. And the reason

0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:01.120
<v Speaker 1>you want to do at is because Flame and I

0:13:01.200 --> 0:13:03.760
<v Speaker 1>talked about personally how we have had friends of ours

0:13:03.800 --> 0:13:05.960
<v Speaker 1>who are now in our age group and some older,

0:13:06.120 --> 0:13:09.560
<v Speaker 1>some younger who have died, and um, you don't want

0:13:09.600 --> 0:13:11.400
<v Speaker 1>to have a situation where your family has to pass

0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:14.400
<v Speaker 1>the hat trying to collect money. And the days Flame

0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:16.800
<v Speaker 1>was talking about two nick more than that, the days

0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:18.760
<v Speaker 1>of the go fund me, Nick that's dead. You know,

0:13:18.960 --> 0:13:21.199
<v Speaker 1>if folks aren't working, they can't do go fund me.

0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:23.680
<v Speaker 1>So for as little as and and again we encourage

0:13:23.679 --> 0:13:26.080
<v Speaker 1>everybody do your own research. But for as little as

0:13:26.120 --> 0:13:29.360
<v Speaker 1>twelve bucks a month, you can have life insurance that

0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:33.200
<v Speaker 1>allows you to have a decent burial where you are

0:13:33.320 --> 0:13:37.199
<v Speaker 1>not leaving the responsibility of having a respectful service, and

0:13:37.360 --> 0:13:40.000
<v Speaker 1>you put away on your family members who may or

0:13:40.040 --> 0:13:41.920
<v Speaker 1>may not be able to afford it, or may or

0:13:41.960 --> 0:13:44.720
<v Speaker 1>may not be able to carry out your wishes. Okay,

0:13:44.880 --> 0:13:47.040
<v Speaker 1>and my biggest thing, first of all, Miss Marshall, we

0:13:47.120 --> 0:13:54.160
<v Speaker 1>see you comment about we got life insurance on you,

0:13:54.320 --> 0:14:01.040
<v Speaker 1>so thanks, mom, appreciated. Thanks. Insurances in important because you

0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:03.679
<v Speaker 1>know I'm saying I'm saying this from a transgender perspective.

0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:05.640
<v Speaker 1>So many of the queens we we will go get

0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:07.880
<v Speaker 1>our hair done, we'll get our makeup done, we'll get

0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:10.520
<v Speaker 1>costumes made, and but we won't you know. And then

0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:12.880
<v Speaker 1>when when somebody dies, we want to do a benefit show,

0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:15.200
<v Speaker 1>we want to raise money here, and then it's always

0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:18.760
<v Speaker 1>the discrepancy of the Listen to me, the funeral home

0:14:18.800 --> 0:14:20.960
<v Speaker 1>didn't get the money, or this person took the money

0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:23.520
<v Speaker 1>ran off and with it. This is covering your own behind.

0:14:23.680 --> 0:14:26.800
<v Speaker 1>So if it's only a ten thousand dollar policy that

0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:28.960
<v Speaker 1>you can afford. Get that, because what you don't want

0:14:29.000 --> 0:14:31.680
<v Speaker 1>to do is burden the family or whoever is in

0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:34.760
<v Speaker 1>your life to try to put you away. Now, my family,

0:14:34.760 --> 0:14:36.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to hear them talk ship. See this

0:14:36.520 --> 0:14:38.040
<v Speaker 1>is this is a personal Let me just give it

0:14:38.080 --> 0:14:39.640
<v Speaker 1>to y'all in the raw. I don't want to be

0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:41.600
<v Speaker 1>laying in there like you know. I ain't had no money.

0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:43.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why you didn't take it is you're

0:14:43.240 --> 0:14:45.240
<v Speaker 1>going into my savings. You I had to spend my money.

0:14:45.240 --> 0:14:47.400
<v Speaker 1>I can't get my beano money, my my mama. I

0:14:47.480 --> 0:14:49.840
<v Speaker 1>can't go to Bengo. I raised up from the dead

0:14:49.840 --> 0:14:51.400
<v Speaker 1>and say look at here, old lady, you need to

0:14:51.480 --> 0:14:55.760
<v Speaker 1>knock it all shady pas, my shady pans. She just say, nigger,

0:14:55.760 --> 0:14:58.600
<v Speaker 1>you already in a pan box. Not at all. But

0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:01.080
<v Speaker 1>it's very important. And we three or four queens, and

0:15:01.240 --> 0:15:03.520
<v Speaker 1>with the unsurety of the COVID virus, people are dying

0:15:03.640 --> 0:15:05.320
<v Speaker 1>like this now. They say every ten minutes we lose

0:15:05.360 --> 0:15:07.720
<v Speaker 1>the depth to COVID virus. It's very important. And they

0:15:07.800 --> 0:15:09.520
<v Speaker 1>used to give you a lot of a brick wall.

0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:11.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting a life insurance. You had to take all

0:15:11.520 --> 0:15:13.920
<v Speaker 1>these blood tests, and it's not even like that anymore.

0:15:14.000 --> 0:15:15.560
<v Speaker 1>Now you can just pick up a phone and set

0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:17.880
<v Speaker 1>it up and do automatic bill pay. If you get

0:15:17.920 --> 0:15:19.560
<v Speaker 1>a month once a month check or if you get

0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:23.520
<v Speaker 1>paid by weekly or salary haven't automatically taken out that way,

0:15:23.600 --> 0:15:25.520
<v Speaker 1>you can't miss what you never got, but you'll know

0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:27.800
<v Speaker 1>that you're covered. And when you do whole life, it

0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:31.240
<v Speaker 1>usually takes two years before it goes into effect for

0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:33.600
<v Speaker 1>you to get the all of the money. So do

0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:37.320
<v Speaker 1>it now, down Flame, that's whole life. I'm glad you

0:15:37.400 --> 0:15:40.440
<v Speaker 1>mentioned whole life. The cheapest and least expensive one. Uh.

0:15:40.520 --> 0:15:43.120
<v Speaker 1>That is least of a burden for people, or less

0:15:43.120 --> 0:15:45.240
<v Speaker 1>of a burden for something I think would be term

0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:48.160
<v Speaker 1>life insurance. And that level term means that the death

0:15:48.240 --> 0:15:51.360
<v Speaker 1>benefits stays the same throughout the duration of the policy.

0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:53.560
<v Speaker 1>So if you get a ten thousand dollar policy, and

0:15:53.560 --> 0:15:56.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna tell you anywhere you guys, you can be

0:15:56.480 --> 0:15:59.880
<v Speaker 1>buried for uh, for ten thousand bucks a nice decent sir.

0:16:00.360 --> 0:16:02.280
<v Speaker 1>You may not get the mausoleum and the and the

0:16:02.360 --> 0:16:04.680
<v Speaker 1>heart with the you know, you know how we used

0:16:04.680 --> 0:16:06.920
<v Speaker 1>to do was it hoped back in Chicago, Flame, which

0:16:07.080 --> 0:16:08.640
<v Speaker 1>was the one where they put you in the glass

0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:11.960
<v Speaker 1>video screen and everything there and people. That's gatlands on

0:16:12.000 --> 0:16:15.200
<v Speaker 1>a hundred and third and you see how new Exactly

0:16:15.200 --> 0:16:17.400
<v Speaker 1>what you're talking about, baby was a drive through. Baby,

0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:21.040
<v Speaker 1>again because the COVID you came a lot of people.

0:16:21.360 --> 0:16:24.480
<v Speaker 1>We should, baby, drive back, could you? Hey, baby, let

0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:26.600
<v Speaker 1>me tell you. If I'm driving back and the person

<v Speaker 1>then sunk up and way back, baby, I'm running into

0:16:29.520 --> 0:16:35.320
<v Speaker 1>everything in front of me. Ridiculous. But you can do

0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:37.320
<v Speaker 1>that for a little bit twelve bucks a month and

0:16:37.560 --> 0:16:40.120
<v Speaker 1>and and that covers it, and that is good, uh

0:16:40.280 --> 0:16:42.680
<v Speaker 1>for thirty years. So there you go. It's just that simple.

0:16:42.960 --> 0:16:45.720

0:16:47.880 --> 0:16:50.400
<v Speaker 1>your home. It really does help you and your loved ones.

0:16:50.640 --> 0:16:52.080
<v Speaker 1>And it's not like you're trying to leave people a

0:16:52.080 --> 0:16:53.520
<v Speaker 1>whole great deal of money. You just want to make

0:16:53.560 --> 0:16:56.240
<v Speaker 1>sure that people put you away safely and make it

0:16:56.360 --> 0:16:58.760
<v Speaker 1>they'll feel better about themselves. I'm with you, niggas. Sometimes

0:16:58.800 --> 0:17:01.440
<v Speaker 1>you don't even need the headstone. And the way people

0:17:01.480 --> 0:17:03.000
<v Speaker 1>are dying now, it ain't gonna be in the room

0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:05.320
<v Speaker 1>for here. So yeah, exactly, I ain't gonna be another

0:17:05.359 --> 0:17:07.119
<v Speaker 1>room for here. Someone. I'm gonna have two heir stones

0:17:07.160 --> 0:17:09.320
<v Speaker 1>like this one. Somebody on the front, somebody on the back.

0:17:09.600 --> 0:17:13.320
<v Speaker 1>So we took two people in the casket. Uh, I

0:17:13.400 --> 0:17:15.080
<v Speaker 1>want to I want to go ahead, and I want

0:17:15.080 --> 0:17:16.480
<v Speaker 1>to go ahead and move to our next one, so

0:17:16.600 --> 0:17:18.200
<v Speaker 1>that when you all opened up for the flame message

0:17:18.200 --> 0:17:20.359
<v Speaker 1>and sound off on both of these, because flame, this

0:17:20.480 --> 0:17:23.560
<v Speaker 1>tied directly into the topic you were most passionate about

0:17:23.600 --> 0:17:28.200
<v Speaker 1>this week, which was colorectal health. And we had to

0:17:28.359 --> 0:17:31.159
<v Speaker 1>educate my baby here at my guys, did you did?

0:17:31.240 --> 0:17:32.960
<v Speaker 1>But see, that's why we call this laugh and learn,

0:17:33.040 --> 0:17:34.960
<v Speaker 1>and this is why we have our own discussions before

0:17:35.040 --> 0:17:37.359
<v Speaker 1>coming on here, because we are actually kind of learning

0:17:37.400 --> 0:17:40.200
<v Speaker 1>things ourselves, well at least I am. So when we

0:17:40.240 --> 0:17:43.359
<v Speaker 1>talked about colorectal health, initially, I really thought that this

0:17:43.520 --> 0:17:46.480
<v Speaker 1>was something mainly for men. I really did. I didn't.

0:17:46.560 --> 0:17:48.680
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know that it was something that both men

0:17:48.840 --> 0:17:51.800
<v Speaker 1>and women did equally, um, because you know, I always

0:17:52.280 --> 0:17:55.000
<v Speaker 1>like men, and my family always went and got colonoscopes

0:17:55.040 --> 0:17:57.159
<v Speaker 1>and that sort of thing. I mean, my mother alone

0:17:57.200 --> 0:17:59.280
<v Speaker 1>My mother has never gotten a colin oscarpy before, so

0:17:59.480 --> 0:18:02.120
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't I didn't know, um, but you know, doing

0:18:02.240 --> 0:18:05.640
<v Speaker 1>some research that sort of thing, I realized that it's

0:18:05.880 --> 0:18:08.879
<v Speaker 1>very important, not just in men, especially black men, but

0:18:08.960 --> 0:18:12.120
<v Speaker 1>also black women. UM. Interestingly enough, I had an aunt

0:18:12.119 --> 0:18:14.399
<v Speaker 1>who passed away a couple of years ago from colon cancer.

0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:16.960
<v Speaker 1>She didn't have to she didn't want to talk about

0:18:16.960 --> 0:18:19.200
<v Speaker 1>it or tell anybody, but she did. She's it's something

0:18:19.280 --> 0:18:22.399
<v Speaker 1>she passed away from. So uh. I think that we

0:18:22.440 --> 0:18:25.240
<v Speaker 1>should probably lower the age requirement of when we should

0:18:25.280 --> 0:18:27.680
<v Speaker 1>go get checked because I think it's fifty correct, Nick,

0:18:28.560 --> 0:18:32.280
<v Speaker 1>it is was recommended for black men specifically. Yes, I

0:18:32.359 --> 0:18:34.680
<v Speaker 1>think that's a little too too late. I think we

0:18:34.680 --> 0:18:36.760
<v Speaker 1>should be doing it earlier. I think forty would probably

0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:39.240
<v Speaker 1>be a better age. Um, similar to when women have

0:18:39.320 --> 0:18:42.360
<v Speaker 1>to get mammograms. I think that would probably be better. Um.

0:18:42.480 --> 0:18:44.520
<v Speaker 1>But it's something very important and we just have to

0:18:44.600 --> 0:18:46.200
<v Speaker 1>make sure that we check ourselves and make sure that

0:18:46.240 --> 0:18:49.120
<v Speaker 1>we're okay. We really do. Yeah, and Nick, you had

0:18:49.200 --> 0:18:51.080
<v Speaker 1>you had a call as a couple of them, huh

0:18:51.480 --> 0:18:54.160
<v Speaker 1>and Nick, I have uh and again laugh and learn

0:18:54.200 --> 0:18:55.800
<v Speaker 1>we're talking. We talked about this because you and I

0:18:55.880 --> 0:19:00.200
<v Speaker 1>had this conversation. UM. I have been proactive in my

0:19:00.280 --> 0:19:02.760
<v Speaker 1>health for years because I come from a family of

0:19:02.880 --> 0:19:06.159
<v Speaker 1>heavy comorbidities UM, A family of high blood pressure, of

0:19:06.240 --> 0:19:10.040
<v Speaker 1>family of diabetes, a family where we add insalt before

0:19:10.040 --> 0:19:12.840
<v Speaker 1>we even tasted the food. So those became my habits

0:19:12.920 --> 0:19:16.600
<v Speaker 1>until I learned more. Right, UM, I have been testing

0:19:16.760 --> 0:19:20.160
<v Speaker 1>and doing colonoscopy since I was forty UM, and that's

0:19:20.200 --> 0:19:23.680
<v Speaker 1>because of the high risk factors that I walk into

0:19:23.800 --> 0:19:26.239
<v Speaker 1>it with. UH. So yes, I am a I'm an

0:19:26.240 --> 0:19:29.920
<v Speaker 1>advocate of UH doing the whole process and just just

0:19:30.040 --> 0:19:33.159
<v Speaker 1>being proactive. But it can be intimidating for men, and

0:19:33.240 --> 0:19:36.000
<v Speaker 1>it can be intimidating, I think even more so for

0:19:36.119 --> 0:19:39.320
<v Speaker 1>members of my community, specifically black men, who may not

0:19:39.520 --> 0:19:42.639
<v Speaker 1>have always gone to a doctor regularly. So this entire

0:19:42.720 --> 0:19:46.000
<v Speaker 1>process becomes so foreign. And you and I talked about

0:19:46.040 --> 0:19:47.560
<v Speaker 1>this in flame. I know you're gonna talk more about this,

0:19:47.720 --> 0:19:51.960
<v Speaker 1>but bedside manner matters, and I think that sometimes people

0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:56.560
<v Speaker 1>don't know how to UH demand that demand requests expect

0:19:56.720 --> 0:19:59.639
<v Speaker 1>that their doctor or the person UH being as in

0:19:59.720 --> 0:20:02.600
<v Speaker 1>vain as one can possibly be to your person in

0:20:02.720 --> 0:20:05.880
<v Speaker 1>your space, be somebody you're comfortable with. But if they're

0:20:06.160 --> 0:20:09.879
<v Speaker 1>being very clinical with Mr Parker moved here, Mr Parker

0:20:09.960 --> 0:20:11.879
<v Speaker 1>moved there, and you're like, whoa can you? Can you?

0:20:12.040 --> 0:20:14.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that I need you, know dinner, but

0:20:14.800 --> 0:20:17.120
<v Speaker 1>I need you to at least, you know, talk nice

0:20:17.160 --> 0:20:21.800
<v Speaker 1>to me. I want to give you my ass. Hold

0:20:21.800 --> 0:20:26.239
<v Speaker 1>on play a hold on, slow down man. So that's well,

0:20:26.320 --> 0:20:29.000
<v Speaker 1>thank you Nicholas for sharing that, because that that's the truth.

0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:31.760
<v Speaker 1>But a lot of times, like I said before, people, um,

0:20:31.960 --> 0:20:34.480
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to demand respect, you command respect. People

0:20:34.520 --> 0:20:36.240
<v Speaker 1>treat you the way they see you treat yourself. Even

0:20:36.280 --> 0:20:39.240
<v Speaker 1>if you're in the hospital. They see how who comes

0:20:39.240 --> 0:20:40.879
<v Speaker 1>to visit you, what type of people those are? They

0:20:40.920 --> 0:20:42.959
<v Speaker 1>see how you speak with the nurses, whether you polite.

0:20:43.160 --> 0:20:44.480
<v Speaker 1>First of all, I ain't gonna be rude with you

0:20:44.520 --> 0:20:46.240
<v Speaker 1>if I'm sucking together in hospital, because I don't know

0:20:46.240 --> 0:20:48.000
<v Speaker 1>what you're putting up in this. I vy you have

0:20:48.119 --> 0:20:50.440
<v Speaker 1>me a broken out here with taking the vaccine. Y'all

0:20:50.440 --> 0:20:54.320
<v Speaker 1>know I ain't taking that ship any who. Secondly, I

0:20:54.520 --> 0:20:57.440
<v Speaker 1>was very against having a colonoscopy. I was afraid I

0:20:57.560 --> 0:21:00.480
<v Speaker 1>had heard the horror stories. So my to ask me

0:21:00.560 --> 0:21:02.520
<v Speaker 1>at forty five to take one. I put it off

0:21:02.800 --> 0:21:05.560
<v Speaker 1>for ten years. I just had my first one in November,

0:21:05.600 --> 0:21:07.119
<v Speaker 1>the third this year. I was I talked about it

0:21:07.200 --> 0:21:09.359
<v Speaker 1>on on coffee time before we got this show on

0:21:09.880 --> 0:21:12.440
<v Speaker 1>every day, and I talked about the process. It was

0:21:12.520 --> 0:21:14.760
<v Speaker 1>not bad at all. It was It was not bad

0:21:14.800 --> 0:21:17.720
<v Speaker 1>at all. Yeah, it isn't trusive. And if you're a

0:21:17.800 --> 0:21:19.440
<v Speaker 1>man and you're in tune with your body, you know

0:21:19.520 --> 0:21:21.680
<v Speaker 1>who you're all. Woman, you have to be comfortable with

0:21:21.720 --> 0:21:24.080
<v Speaker 1>who you are if you follow the rules. The worst

0:21:24.119 --> 0:21:26.200
<v Speaker 1>part about the thing was not the taste of the medicine,

0:21:26.240 --> 0:21:28.080
<v Speaker 1>cause I got a new medicine to little Brown bottics.

0:21:28.119 --> 0:21:31.000
<v Speaker 1>It's not even bad. It's just being in the restroom

0:21:31.040 --> 0:21:33.600
<v Speaker 1>for a very long time. But they also tell you

0:21:33.680 --> 0:21:35.200
<v Speaker 1>that if you don't get it right the first time,

0:21:35.280 --> 0:21:37.359
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna have to do it again. So don't eat.

0:21:37.720 --> 0:21:39.480
<v Speaker 1>Get it right the first time. You can go hungry

0:21:39.520 --> 0:21:41.359
<v Speaker 1>for a day. Good guys, some of y'all, y'all, some

0:21:41.400 --> 0:21:43.080
<v Speaker 1>of your mother's can missing me over here there. I'm

0:21:43.119 --> 0:21:45.920
<v Speaker 1>just saying, but you know, once you get in the

0:21:46.600 --> 0:21:49.159
<v Speaker 1>and I went to Mount SINAI no, when I go

0:21:49.359 --> 0:21:51.920
<v Speaker 1>I went to see the sign out and then it

0:21:52.000 --> 0:21:54.119
<v Speaker 1>was a very distressful morning because I didn't want to

0:21:54.160 --> 0:21:56.720
<v Speaker 1>do it. I was completely against it. I couldn't find

0:21:56.800 --> 0:21:58.880
<v Speaker 1>the bait called see the sign that has twenty buildings,

0:21:59.040 --> 0:22:00.800
<v Speaker 1>so I didn't know where I was on. I called

0:22:00.880 --> 0:22:02.400
<v Speaker 1>NICKI and the frieze. I said, you know what I'm

0:22:02.400 --> 0:22:04.800
<v Speaker 1>not doing. I'm going home. Nick say, calm down. This

0:22:04.960 --> 0:22:06.720
<v Speaker 1>is the first time he was calm told me to

0:22:06.800 --> 0:22:08.639
<v Speaker 1>calm down. He picked up the phone, he made a

0:22:08.680 --> 0:22:10.080
<v Speaker 1>phone call. He called me back and gave me the

0:22:10.119 --> 0:22:12.000
<v Speaker 1>exact address. Now, I want to tell you that I

0:22:12.080 --> 0:22:14.119
<v Speaker 1>was too ignorant, say because I had asked the hospital

0:22:14.119 --> 0:22:15.879
<v Speaker 1>where you going? They want to check your booty. But

0:22:16.040 --> 0:22:18.000
<v Speaker 1>Nicholas called and said, we need to know where the

0:22:18.119 --> 0:22:23.359
<v Speaker 1>endoscopy clinic is. I'm like, what is the endoscopy? But

0:22:23.760 --> 0:22:25.959
<v Speaker 1>it calmed me down. I went. The procedure was smooth

0:22:26.040 --> 0:22:27.719
<v Speaker 1>and great. I didn't even know what was done. When

0:22:27.760 --> 0:22:30.840
<v Speaker 1>it was done, the doctor was very nice. The proper

0:22:30.920 --> 0:22:32.960
<v Speaker 1>vall was worth it. If you asked me why did

0:22:33.040 --> 0:22:36.680
<v Speaker 1>Michael Jackson down from propovol, then you've never fing had propovole.

0:22:36.720 --> 0:22:39.320
<v Speaker 1>Because when I tell you that the proper vol will

0:22:39.400 --> 0:22:42.160
<v Speaker 1>take you on a rad that the gummies can't touch.

0:22:42.359 --> 0:22:45.359
<v Speaker 1>Good God, it's it's it's it's a good uh anesthetic

0:22:45.440 --> 0:22:47.840
<v Speaker 1>to have. I will I will say that I've had

0:22:47.880 --> 0:22:50.359
<v Speaker 1>it twice in my life and I had some great sleep.

0:22:50.680 --> 0:22:52.760
<v Speaker 1>It's the best sleep. And you think you've been sleep

0:22:52.800 --> 0:22:55.960
<v Speaker 1>at ten twelve fifty, now you've been sleeping like twenty minutes. Yeah,

0:22:56.600 --> 0:22:59.639
<v Speaker 1>it's amazing. It's amazing personal experience. The first time I

0:22:59.680 --> 0:23:01.920
<v Speaker 1>had proball, I had a procedure on my mouth, I

0:23:01.960 --> 0:23:05.320
<v Speaker 1>had my teeth extracted that we're impacted, and I woke

0:23:05.440 --> 0:23:07.960
<v Speaker 1>up to my dear old mother hitting me because Michael

0:23:08.040 --> 0:23:10.159
<v Speaker 1>Jackson had just passed away from this, so she was

0:23:10.280 --> 0:23:12.960
<v Speaker 1>very nervous. Um. But anyway, I kind of want to

0:23:13.000 --> 0:23:15.479
<v Speaker 1>circle backfield because I think that a good takeaway from

0:23:15.560 --> 0:23:18.320
<v Speaker 1>this is too is that you know, black folks really

0:23:18.400 --> 0:23:21.119
<v Speaker 1>need to advocate for our health. You know, Nick, you

0:23:21.240 --> 0:23:23.680
<v Speaker 1>mentioned you know, poking and prodding and you know, not

0:23:23.800 --> 0:23:27.000
<v Speaker 1>actually having proper bedside manner um. I think that's kind

0:23:27.000 --> 0:23:28.520
<v Speaker 1>of like a history of something that we've had to

0:23:28.600 --> 0:23:31.639
<v Speaker 1>deal with always and that you know, we've had these

0:23:31.720 --> 0:23:35.359
<v Speaker 1>like stereotypes label to us that we can endure higher

0:23:35.400 --> 0:23:37.720
<v Speaker 1>tolerance of pain and these sort of things. So I

0:23:37.840 --> 0:23:40.840
<v Speaker 1>think that a serious message that we can take take

0:23:40.920 --> 0:23:43.200
<v Speaker 1>away here is please advocate for your health. You know,

0:23:43.600 --> 0:23:45.880
<v Speaker 1>don't allow a doctor to tell you like, oh, you're

0:23:45.880 --> 0:23:47.760
<v Speaker 1>gonna be fine when you know something's wrong with you.

0:23:47.840 --> 0:23:50.760
<v Speaker 1>It's important to take your health seriously. And it's always

0:23:50.800 --> 0:23:53.359
<v Speaker 1>important that you actually go and see a doctor because

0:23:53.680 --> 0:23:55.639
<v Speaker 1>maybe they'll be able to tell you something that you

0:23:55.760 --> 0:23:58.359
<v Speaker 1>don't know or that you're not even feeling. So please

0:23:58.359 --> 0:24:00.119
<v Speaker 1>advocate for your health, because we all want to make

0:24:00.160 --> 0:24:02.600
<v Speaker 1>sure that we're here for a long time exactly. And

0:24:02.760 --> 0:24:04.600
<v Speaker 1>and Lauren just touch based on that. The reason we're

0:24:04.600 --> 0:24:07.600
<v Speaker 1>pushed anga Uh, colon oscary. There are some famous people

0:24:07.680 --> 0:24:10.440
<v Speaker 1>that we all know who have died because of colon

0:24:10.520 --> 0:24:13.520
<v Speaker 1>cancer or had colon cancer. Among them, of course we

0:24:13.600 --> 0:24:17.439
<v Speaker 1>all know Chadwick Boseman, we talked about, Darryl Strawberry, Uh,

0:24:17.760 --> 0:24:24.280
<v Speaker 1>Charles M. Schultz, Audrey Hepburn, Ronald Reagan, Vince Lombardi, Elizabeth Montgomery,

0:24:24.560 --> 0:24:27.280
<v Speaker 1>and of course Ruth Bader Ginsburgh. So it knows no race,

0:24:27.400 --> 0:24:30.440
<v Speaker 1>no Asian demographic. It is a killer. One of the

0:24:30.480 --> 0:24:32.280
<v Speaker 1>things I wanted to talk about too, just because we're

0:24:32.320 --> 0:24:34.560
<v Speaker 1>on that and I just push it because you know,

0:24:34.640 --> 0:24:36.080
<v Speaker 1>I try to run and everything in the morning when

0:24:36.119 --> 0:24:38.840
<v Speaker 1>I can, but I'm still addicted to that bread Aman Church.

0:24:39.200 --> 0:24:43.119
<v Speaker 1>Colorectal cancer rates are higher in African Americans. This is

0:24:43.200 --> 0:24:46.000
<v Speaker 1>just a statistic from cancer dot Org. So I want

0:24:46.040 --> 0:24:48.760
<v Speaker 1>everybody to know, Uh, this is where we source this information,

0:24:49.080 --> 0:24:51.880
<v Speaker 1>and it's rising in younger people. They don't necessarily know why,

0:24:52.000 --> 0:24:53.879
<v Speaker 1>but this is the reason why we're talking about it

0:24:54.119 --> 0:24:56.919
<v Speaker 1>on this platform, because we want family members to encourage

0:24:56.960 --> 0:24:59.720
<v Speaker 1>other family members. I know, the black men sometimes we

0:24:59.800 --> 0:25:02.920
<v Speaker 1>can be uncomfortable going to a doctor that maybe isn't

0:25:02.960 --> 0:25:05.919
<v Speaker 1>a black male, or I have male friends who are

0:25:05.960 --> 0:25:08.919
<v Speaker 1>comfortable with female doctors. I've had female doctors. I've had

0:25:09.280 --> 0:25:12.520
<v Speaker 1>male doctors. If you pass med school and I'm comfortable

0:25:12.560 --> 0:25:14.320
<v Speaker 1>with you and I can have a conversa issue that

0:25:14.520 --> 0:25:18.040
<v Speaker 1>is open, that is honest, Uh, that is completely transparent,

0:25:18.320 --> 0:25:20.520
<v Speaker 1>We're good to go. But I interview my doctors just

0:25:20.640 --> 0:25:22.399
<v Speaker 1>like I know they interviewed me, and they said, they're like,

0:25:22.440 --> 0:25:23.359
<v Speaker 1>you know, I don't know if I want to deal

0:25:23.400 --> 0:25:25.240
<v Speaker 1>with this way. He talks a bit much. I get

0:25:25.240 --> 0:25:30.800
<v Speaker 1>all of that. The last thing I want to throw

0:25:30.800 --> 0:25:33.760
<v Speaker 1>out there is there's a new app called jet Doc

0:25:34.000 --> 0:25:37.920
<v Speaker 1>that I learned about today being promoted by Rick Ross.

0:25:38.640 --> 0:25:41.840
<v Speaker 1>Ross shared his own personal health story today, Um, and

0:25:41.920 --> 0:25:43.600
<v Speaker 1>I was just it was it was. He talked about

0:25:43.600 --> 0:25:45.960
<v Speaker 1>the weight loss and his love of the wrong foods

0:25:46.000 --> 0:25:50.000
<v Speaker 1>and why he wanted to encourage other black men and women,

0:25:50.280 --> 0:25:52.639
<v Speaker 1>but black men in particularly because we're the group that

0:25:52.720 --> 0:25:55.840
<v Speaker 1>tends to be the most affected by not really following

0:25:55.880 --> 0:25:57.720
<v Speaker 1>through with our health. Women, for the most part, will

0:25:57.800 --> 0:26:01.119
<v Speaker 1>at least be somewhat proactive in their health, much more

0:26:01.200 --> 0:26:02.800
<v Speaker 1>so than man. So it was it was this call

0:26:02.880 --> 0:26:04.800
<v Speaker 1>to reach out to brothers. And I believe the app

0:26:04.920 --> 0:26:07.080
<v Speaker 1>is like twenty bucks, but it also allows you to

0:26:07.240 --> 0:26:10.239
<v Speaker 1>find a doctor and all that stuff that works for you. Okay, well,

0:26:10.320 --> 0:26:12.880
<v Speaker 1>thank you, Nicky and nick Nay opened up the door, y'all.

0:26:12.880 --> 0:26:14.440
<v Speaker 1>We and now we even open up the floodgates for

0:26:14.480 --> 0:26:16.760
<v Speaker 1>y'all coming. We're gonna come back to you, nick Alright.

0:26:17.280 --> 0:26:19.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm so proud of Rick Ross for doing that because

0:26:20.160 --> 0:26:22.280
<v Speaker 1>I think that Kevin Hart, to me, Kevin Hart and

0:26:22.320 --> 0:26:25.000
<v Speaker 1>Timmany had had a big hand and opening and so

0:26:25.080 --> 0:26:27.399
<v Speaker 1>many other celebrities that go unknown. I love when they

0:26:27.480 --> 0:26:30.520
<v Speaker 1>help other people, give other artists an opportunity because then

0:26:30.600 --> 0:26:32.800
<v Speaker 1>people just keep paying it for. We're paying for paying

0:26:32.880 --> 0:26:35.880
<v Speaker 1>for Yeah, so good job for Rick Rick. Rick Ross

0:26:35.920 --> 0:26:37.520
<v Speaker 1>had a heart attack on the plane, right. He had

0:26:37.560 --> 0:26:40.760
<v Speaker 1>a couple of health scares that were really detrimental to him.

0:26:40.840 --> 0:26:42.960
<v Speaker 1>So I actually saw what Nick was talking about. I

0:26:43.000 --> 0:26:45.240
<v Speaker 1>think about two weeks ago, Rick Ross was on our

0:26:45.600 --> 0:26:49.760
<v Speaker 1>Melbourne show on MSNBC with his other investor and they

0:26:49.840 --> 0:26:51.840
<v Speaker 1>were just talking about how they really just wanted to

0:26:51.920 --> 0:26:55.639
<v Speaker 1>provide access to care and you know, access to affordable

0:26:56.000 --> 0:26:59.520
<v Speaker 1>health care. So um, yeah, definitely shout out to them,

0:26:59.640 --> 0:27:01.240
<v Speaker 1>thank you for just helping that. And I just want

0:27:01.280 --> 0:27:03.080
<v Speaker 1>to personally thank you Rick Ross for doing that. And

0:27:03.400 --> 0:27:05.399
<v Speaker 1>started wearing a T shirt because you was killing me

0:27:05.480 --> 0:27:07.159

0:28:14.680 --> 0:28:17.560
<v Speaker 1>not only just Georgia, but the country as a whole.

0:28:17.760 --> 0:28:20.960
<v Speaker 1>We all should be questioning what's really going on, not

0:28:21.240 --> 0:28:23.640
<v Speaker 1>just Georgia, but the country, the country as a whole

0:28:23.960 --> 0:28:27.880
<v Speaker 1>the next go round for our elections, especially in Kentucky. Kentucky,

0:28:28.359 --> 0:28:30.680
<v Speaker 1>y'all needs to get it together. George is not the

0:28:30.760 --> 0:28:33.320
<v Speaker 1>only state that needs to get out to the polls.

0:28:33.560 --> 0:28:36.280
<v Speaker 1>All the polls and y'all hold all the cars right

0:28:36.320 --> 0:28:39.200
<v Speaker 1>now though, because everything is writing on tomorrow right now

0:28:39.640 --> 0:28:44.160
<v Speaker 1>in Georgia. Yes it is, Yes, it is. You are

0:28:44.280 --> 0:28:48.160
<v Speaker 1>so right. The only thing, um is that we have

0:28:48.400 --> 0:28:50.880
<v Speaker 1>to get a lot of the transplants to realize you

0:28:51.040 --> 0:28:55.240
<v Speaker 1>do matter. Your vote matter. Everybody's telling Georgia to vote,

0:28:55.280 --> 0:28:57.960
<v Speaker 1>but you're not being specific. We have a lot of

0:28:58.360 --> 0:29:01.560
<v Speaker 1>males that are not voting. I work with a lot

0:29:01.600 --> 0:29:04.840
<v Speaker 1>of men that do not vote, not planning to vote,

0:29:05.040 --> 0:29:08.560
<v Speaker 1>not thinking about voting. Uh, yesterday I dropped off some

0:29:08.720 --> 0:29:11.520
<v Speaker 1>items to my mom. There you you actually see people

0:29:11.600 --> 0:29:14.560
<v Speaker 1>going from door to door to get people to vote.

0:29:14.920 --> 0:29:17.080
<v Speaker 1>They have a lot of volunteers out on the ground.

0:29:17.720 --> 0:29:21.240
<v Speaker 1>Uh that's asking uh people to come out to vote. Also,

0:29:21.560 --> 0:29:25.680
<v Speaker 1>I've been inundated by email, text, phone calls about us

0:29:25.760 --> 0:29:28.520
<v Speaker 1>getting out to vote. But you will be be surprised

0:29:28.880 --> 0:29:31.280
<v Speaker 1>of a large group of our black men that will

0:29:31.360 --> 0:29:33.880
<v Speaker 1>not vote. Do you know why are they saying why

0:29:33.920 --> 0:29:37.280
<v Speaker 1>they don't want to go out and vote. Many many

0:29:37.400 --> 0:29:40.040
<v Speaker 1>don't believe in the system. They believe they don't believe

0:29:40.040 --> 0:29:43.720
<v Speaker 1>in that the system will help them. Many don't believe

0:29:44.280 --> 0:29:49.480
<v Speaker 1>that they've vote matter many believe in conspiracy theories. Um.

0:29:49.960 --> 0:29:52.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, right now, with the eleven thousand, seven hundred

0:29:53.000 --> 0:29:56.560
<v Speaker 1>eighty votes that somebody wants to negotiate about, that's not right,

0:29:56.640 --> 0:30:01.240
<v Speaker 1>that's illegal. But you know, most people, they just don't

0:30:01.320 --> 0:30:04.920
<v Speaker 1>think that they matter. Um. And a lot of the

0:30:05.000 --> 0:30:09.560
<v Speaker 1>transplants from other states have been redlined or pushed out

0:30:09.760 --> 0:30:14.440
<v Speaker 1>of their home and most people won't be honest about that.

0:30:14.520 --> 0:30:16.880
<v Speaker 1>They won't be honest that you can't get a job

0:30:17.040 --> 0:30:20.080
<v Speaker 1>in certain states, you can't find housing in certain states.

0:30:20.680 --> 0:30:23.880
<v Speaker 1>But they're rather talk about other things, but they won't

0:30:23.920 --> 0:30:26.040
<v Speaker 1>talk about what's going on in their home state and

0:30:26.240 --> 0:30:28.800
<v Speaker 1>what's sad about it. Many of them come from blue states.

0:30:30.240 --> 0:30:32.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna flip all these states blue like my glasses.

0:30:32.680 --> 0:30:35.440
<v Speaker 1>They're getting my nerve. Hey, Hannah, you stay safe down there.

0:30:35.480 --> 0:30:37.600
<v Speaker 1>And we're gonna be watching these posts tomorrow. I'm gonna

0:30:37.600 --> 0:30:39.840
<v Speaker 1>be watching because I know it's gonna be a nail biter.

0:30:40.360 --> 0:30:42.240
<v Speaker 1>And I love what Laurence said and that you're saying

0:30:42.240 --> 0:30:44.200
<v Speaker 1>that the people that are out there voting, that it

0:30:44.240 --> 0:30:46.080
<v Speaker 1>looks like we're gonna get these seats. But I need

0:30:46.200 --> 0:30:48.880
<v Speaker 1>us as black people or people in the state of Georgia.

0:30:48.920 --> 0:30:51.200
<v Speaker 1>Not to rely on that, because you remember, we thought

0:30:51.280 --> 0:30:54.320
<v Speaker 1>Hillary was a shooting four years ago and three days

0:30:54.400 --> 0:30:56.440
<v Speaker 1>before they threw a monkey wrench in the game playing

0:30:56.520 --> 0:30:59.040
<v Speaker 1>comy and you lost your job to this nigga bay

0:30:59.520 --> 0:31:02.600
<v Speaker 1>uh and we and Hillary lost. Now, Hillary didn't lose

0:31:02.720 --> 0:31:05.200
<v Speaker 1>because we didn't like a Hillary lost because white folks

0:31:05.200 --> 0:31:08.880
<v Speaker 1>didn't like Let's be honest, because like, yeah, but then

0:31:09.200 --> 0:31:11.200
<v Speaker 1>they see the boomerang of life is Trump got the

0:31:11.240 --> 0:31:13.240
<v Speaker 1>same ship back in his face because he thought he

0:31:13.360 --> 0:31:15.480
<v Speaker 1>was going to win, and he was close. But three

0:31:15.560 --> 0:31:18.960
<v Speaker 1>days and four days before they dropped that vaccine. That's

0:31:19.040 --> 0:31:20.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, some of y'all are taking not me, but

0:31:20.640 --> 0:31:22.760

<v Speaker 1>seven hundred and ninety nine votes to win. He asked

<v Speaker 1>the light. Okay, if you're gonna get in the lift,

0:33:12.880 --> 0:33:15.520
<v Speaker 1>get you some lights off. Spread the asses, I spray everybody, baby,

0:33:15.560 --> 0:33:19.440
<v Speaker 1>spread everybody where. We're gonna we're gonna get vesper girl.

0:33:19.480 --> 0:33:22.200
<v Speaker 1>You know I can't see those words. Yes, y'all, get

0:33:22.280 --> 0:33:25.240
<v Speaker 1>y'all asses out there and vote, vote, vote, vote vote,

0:33:25.360 --> 0:33:29.600
<v Speaker 1>because I'm telling you, Georgia, we need you. Hell don't

0:33:30.000 --> 0:33:32.880
<v Speaker 1>look like John Osoft. Let me tell you something, John

0:33:32.920 --> 0:33:35.480
<v Speaker 1>Osoft is fine, he could get it. I stay in

0:33:35.600 --> 0:33:38.520
<v Speaker 1>drag almost the whole time and everything, but eventually we're

0:33:38.560 --> 0:33:40.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna slat off. I'm just letting you know. I gotta

0:33:40.200 --> 0:33:44.680
<v Speaker 1>be comfortable. Ship. Your mind is in the gut of today.

0:33:44.720 --> 0:33:50.200
<v Speaker 1>And it's a new year, same thing, a new year

0:33:52.880 --> 0:33:55.560
<v Speaker 1>in Georgia. Look, the voter suppression is real. And the

0:33:55.680 --> 0:33:57.760
<v Speaker 1>thing about it is they make it look so natural,

0:33:57.920 --> 0:34:00.720
<v Speaker 1>like it's normal that people don't really think about it.

0:34:00.840 --> 0:34:03.160
<v Speaker 1>But when I went like I had my mail in

0:34:03.280 --> 0:34:07.000
<v Speaker 1>ballot and as I was about to seal it, I

0:34:07.160 --> 0:34:10.080
<v Speaker 1>was like, realized I didn't put the actual ballot into

0:34:10.080 --> 0:34:12.239
<v Speaker 1>the envelope. I was like, oh, ship tore it open,

0:34:12.680 --> 0:34:15.000
<v Speaker 1>and it tore just a little edge on. So I

0:34:15.080 --> 0:34:17.279
<v Speaker 1>put my ballot in there, sealed it. It looked good,

0:34:17.400 --> 0:34:19.759
<v Speaker 1>but I didn't even want to like chance it that

0:34:19.920 --> 0:34:22.440
<v Speaker 1>they would, you know, not take it. So I went

0:34:22.520 --> 0:34:25.560
<v Speaker 1>up to the polls this weekend or right before the

0:34:25.640 --> 0:34:29.200
<v Speaker 1>New year, and um, there was a long line, um,

0:34:29.400 --> 0:34:31.319
<v Speaker 1>and you could tell who the Trump supporters were because

0:34:31.320 --> 0:34:34.480
<v Speaker 1>they weren't wearing masks even you know, and they weren't

0:34:34.680 --> 0:34:37.600
<v Speaker 1>social distancing. Everybody else was like good ten feet away

0:34:37.640 --> 0:34:40.320
<v Speaker 1>from those people. Everybody else was keeping good six ft apart,

0:34:40.480 --> 0:34:45.200
<v Speaker 1>but the tension was there. There was no parking. They

0:34:45.400 --> 0:34:49.400
<v Speaker 1>purposely chose a location that was small with very little parking,

0:34:49.560 --> 0:34:53.319
<v Speaker 1>blocked off half of the parking. And um, people were

0:34:53.400 --> 0:34:56.799
<v Speaker 1>just crazy in the parking lot. Um, and they were

0:34:56.840 --> 0:34:59.440
<v Speaker 1>all giving me mean looks and you know, cussing at me.

0:34:59.560 --> 0:35:01.440
<v Speaker 1>I just nordom as I was walking up to the

0:35:01.520 --> 0:35:05.640
<v Speaker 1>ballot and just dropping it into the dropbox. Um. And

0:35:06.080 --> 0:35:07.520
<v Speaker 1>as soon as I dropped it in a drop box,

0:35:07.600 --> 0:35:10.399
<v Speaker 1>they were all like, oh, okay, you know, but I mean,

0:35:10.520 --> 0:35:14.560
<v Speaker 1>tensions are high. There's very few voting locations. There's very few,

0:35:14.800 --> 0:35:17.560
<v Speaker 1>there's very little parking. And the thing about it is,

0:35:18.320 --> 0:35:20.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to remind people that this is what voter

0:35:20.800 --> 0:35:24.239
<v Speaker 1>suppression looks like. Okay, they want to make it as

0:35:24.280 --> 0:35:27.000
<v Speaker 1>difficult as possible so that when you show up, you

0:35:27.080 --> 0:35:29.480
<v Speaker 1>don't want to vote because you rather just not deal

0:35:29.560 --> 0:35:31.440
<v Speaker 1>with it. And the thing is, we have to deal

0:35:31.520 --> 0:35:34.680
<v Speaker 1>with it because this is everything is writing on Georgia

0:35:34.760 --> 0:35:37.320
<v Speaker 1>right now. Every the whole country, and not even the

0:35:37.360 --> 0:35:39.840
<v Speaker 1>whole country, the whole world is kind of watching Georgia

0:35:39.920 --> 0:35:41.920
<v Speaker 1>right now because this will determine the fate of not

0:35:42.080 --> 0:35:44.719
<v Speaker 1>only the future of our nation, but the future of

0:35:44.760 --> 0:35:48.640
<v Speaker 1>the world. Because if we have a Senate that is

0:35:48.719 --> 0:35:52.439
<v Speaker 1>controlled by the Democrats, we will pass um some type

0:35:52.440 --> 0:35:56.280
<v Speaker 1>of climate change legislation and that will affect the world.

0:35:56.400 --> 0:35:58.880
<v Speaker 1>So it's so important that we all get out here

0:35:58.920 --> 0:36:02.240
<v Speaker 1>and vote, and so important that you don't let anything

0:36:02.560 --> 0:36:06.239
<v Speaker 1>discourage you from doing your part and doing your God

0:36:06.280 --> 0:36:10.520
<v Speaker 1>give him right to vote is my resident white boy,

0:36:10.640 --> 0:36:12.920
<v Speaker 1>black boy. But that's my white chocolate y'all vest. But

0:36:13.000 --> 0:36:14.759
<v Speaker 1>you gave me that with conviction. I felt that all

0:36:14.840 --> 0:36:17.520
<v Speaker 1>in my spirit. Baby cut through my breast and plans

0:36:17.600 --> 0:36:20.560
<v Speaker 1>good God. I mean I was feeling it too. I

0:36:20.719 --> 0:36:22.239
<v Speaker 1>was so upset when I saw that. And I'm like,

0:36:22.360 --> 0:36:25.080
<v Speaker 1>y'all don't realize. This is what voter suppression is. It's

0:36:25.160 --> 0:36:27.719
<v Speaker 1>not like it was in the sixties. It's you know,

0:36:27.840 --> 0:36:30.880
<v Speaker 1>they have to do it in a more coverts. The

0:36:30.960 --> 0:36:33.160
<v Speaker 1>scariest part of all that best is we are on

0:36:33.239 --> 0:36:35.719
<v Speaker 1>the power to keg about to explode. I believe that,

0:36:35.840 --> 0:36:38.800
<v Speaker 1>and this fuel is igniting it and igniting it. Here's

0:36:38.800 --> 0:36:41.400
<v Speaker 1>the thing. We can't even really fall Trump anymore. We

0:36:41.560 --> 0:36:44.600
<v Speaker 1>can't because we know because he keeps showing who he is,

0:36:44.920 --> 0:36:47.920
<v Speaker 1>the powers that's over him. The Congress is sending in

0:36:48.080 --> 0:36:51.759
<v Speaker 1>both strip this nigg of power. Well remove him out

0:36:51.800 --> 0:36:53.759
<v Speaker 1>of this position. I don't care that we get what

0:36:54.000 --> 0:36:57.080
<v Speaker 1>sep four team more days, sixteen more days, remove him

0:36:57.160 --> 0:36:59.280
<v Speaker 1>now the detriment that what are you gonna do? Commit

0:36:59.320 --> 0:37:02.399
<v Speaker 1>all these crimes publicly and then pardon himself. So we're

0:37:02.400 --> 0:37:05.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna let this nigga do this and then tell usself,

0:37:05.200 --> 0:37:06.640
<v Speaker 1>nig you get to get out of jail free card.

0:37:06.680 --> 0:37:09.800
<v Speaker 1>This ain't monopoly. Well, I mean, I will say, I

0:37:09.880 --> 0:37:12.439
<v Speaker 1>don't know if if I totally agree with that plame

0:37:12.520 --> 0:37:15.520
<v Speaker 1>because I think, especially now that you're seeing all of

0:37:15.600 --> 0:37:17.960
<v Speaker 1>these like senators coming out and supporting, for instance, not

0:37:18.040 --> 0:37:21.360
<v Speaker 1>certifying the election for Biden come January six to, it

0:37:21.520 --> 0:37:24.680
<v Speaker 1>really makes me think that Trump really just has stuff

0:37:24.719 --> 0:37:27.480
<v Speaker 1>on all of these different senators, and that's why we're

0:37:27.480 --> 0:37:30.120
<v Speaker 1>seeing them flip. We saw instances with Lindsay Graham, so

0:37:30.600 --> 0:37:35.480
<v Speaker 1>we're it's we're in a very interesting time, to say

0:37:35.560 --> 0:37:37.920
<v Speaker 1>the least. Um, So yeah, I don't I don't know

0:37:38.000 --> 0:37:40.600
<v Speaker 1>if it's that simple great point, may great point. May

0:37:40.800 --> 0:37:42.279
<v Speaker 1>let me say this best, but thank you, my don

0:37:42.320 --> 0:37:46.200
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna hit you than you see. Donald Trump probably

0:37:46.320 --> 0:37:48.920
<v Speaker 1>does have dirt on all of these politicians because here

0:37:49.000 --> 0:37:52.160
<v Speaker 1>it is, he was never a politician, this nigga still

0:37:52.200 --> 0:37:55.440
<v Speaker 1>ain't a politician, but he did business with them for

0:37:55.680 --> 0:37:58.279
<v Speaker 1>so many years before he decided to throw his head

0:37:58.320 --> 0:38:02.120
<v Speaker 1>in the politician reign. So he did business with the Democrats,

0:38:02.200 --> 0:38:05.279
<v Speaker 1>the Republicans, these people. So I got all, y'all, I

0:38:05.360 --> 0:38:06.960
<v Speaker 1>know where the bodies is buried, I know where the

0:38:07.040 --> 0:38:09.080
<v Speaker 1>count is hid, and I know this and that. So

0:38:09.280 --> 0:38:11.560
<v Speaker 1>there everybody is afraid to throw him up under the bus.

0:38:11.640 --> 0:38:13.520
<v Speaker 1>If they have not done business with him, they are

0:38:13.560 --> 0:38:16.600
<v Speaker 1>not like Kamala Harrison and lives a bit warm people

0:38:16.680 --> 0:38:20.600
<v Speaker 1>like that. But if you've done business with him before politics, expecially,

0:38:20.600 --> 0:38:22.600
<v Speaker 1>then they got holding something up. You're right, he's holding

0:38:22.640 --> 0:38:24.560
<v Speaker 1>something over there here, because somebody should have been the

0:38:24.640 --> 0:38:27.120
<v Speaker 1>smashed him with with that, with what they know about

0:38:27.200 --> 0:38:29.840
<v Speaker 1>him exactly if this was a normal democracy, if we

0:38:29.920 --> 0:38:31.959
<v Speaker 1>were actually living in a democracy, I think those would

0:38:31.960 --> 0:38:35.120
<v Speaker 1>be the circumstances. But it's just not. I think Lindsay

0:38:35.160 --> 0:38:37.360
<v Speaker 1>Graham is probably the biggest example of that of just

0:38:37.800 --> 0:38:40.440
<v Speaker 1>one time Trump's racist, He's all this. In the next

0:38:40.520 --> 0:38:42.759
<v Speaker 1>moment he's supported. Well, he ain't bad self because that

0:38:42.920 --> 0:38:45.400
<v Speaker 1>terr crews Texas, y'all should be shamed. Yallself got that

0:38:45.480 --> 0:38:47.359
<v Speaker 1>nick in office, This nick. Let me tell you something

0:38:47.360 --> 0:38:49.520
<v Speaker 1>about a man. Let me let me educate you on,

0:38:49.640 --> 0:38:51.279
<v Speaker 1>let me let me change his voice to me hold on,

0:38:51.400 --> 0:38:53.360
<v Speaker 1>let me let me let me give it to you

0:38:53.560 --> 0:38:57.000
<v Speaker 1>right any who, A man is a heart. A man

0:38:57.200 --> 0:38:59.800
<v Speaker 1>has a heart and a sense of responsibility like no

0:39:00.000 --> 0:39:03.960
<v Speaker 1>it else. Because a woman is more um, what's the

0:39:04.000 --> 0:39:06.120
<v Speaker 1>word loyal? Women? Way more loyal. I mean, you know,

0:39:06.160 --> 0:39:08.239
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna bothize the offense. I know, but the man

0:39:08.360 --> 0:39:11.200
<v Speaker 1>got a heart tear Crews. You allowed this man to

0:39:11.360 --> 0:39:14.600
<v Speaker 1>tell you in your face that your wife was ugly.

0:39:14.960 --> 0:39:18.359
<v Speaker 1>He disrespected you, Michael Rubio. He told he threw your

0:39:18.400 --> 0:39:21.000
<v Speaker 1>father under the bus y'all were going against him. And

0:39:21.040 --> 0:39:24.600
<v Speaker 1>now you allowed this man to come in between your marriage,

0:39:24.680 --> 0:39:27.040
<v Speaker 1>ted Crews. And you're standing up for this fool who

0:39:27.160 --> 0:39:29.640
<v Speaker 1>disrespected the woman that you got on your knees and said,

0:39:29.719 --> 0:39:32.640
<v Speaker 1>for better or for worse, for she should have divorced you.

0:39:33.120 --> 0:39:35.560
<v Speaker 1>And I we knew you was batshit crazy when you

0:39:35.640 --> 0:39:37.520
<v Speaker 1>got on the Senate floor to speak for twenty four

0:39:37.560 --> 0:39:40.120
<v Speaker 1>hours telling something green eggs and ham, I am, I

0:39:40.239 --> 0:39:43.160
<v Speaker 1>am nigga. The eggs are green and the ham is brown.

0:39:43.560 --> 0:39:48.160
<v Speaker 1>That ship ain't no good. But if the disrespected Loyd,

<v Speaker 1>let somebody, just your husband disrespect you like that. Not

0:39:57.760 --> 0:39:59.360
<v Speaker 1>this nigger got the lay in the bed next to you.

0:39:59.560 --> 0:40:01.680
<v Speaker 1>That nigga should have been afraid. He should have been

0:40:01.719 --> 0:40:05.520
<v Speaker 1>real afraid. Oh there ran my blood pressure come back, Flane,

0:40:05.560 --> 0:40:07.120
<v Speaker 1>come back, bring me back along and bring me back

0:40:07.120 --> 0:40:26.400
<v Speaker 1>and bring me back. Hannah talked about the expense in

0:40:26.480 --> 0:40:28.920
<v Speaker 1>housing and why people move there because they've been redlined,

0:40:29.239 --> 0:40:31.600
<v Speaker 1>and she's right, So many of those states are blue states.

0:40:31.920 --> 0:40:34.840
<v Speaker 1>Just looking at the quick list, New York, Rhode Island,

0:40:35.000 --> 0:40:39.880
<v Speaker 1>New Jersey, California, Massachusetts. These states have the highest cost

0:40:39.960 --> 0:40:42.360
<v Speaker 1>of housing. So then people moved to a place that

0:40:42.440 --> 0:40:45.480
<v Speaker 1>they think is less expensive, um, and then they don't

0:40:45.520 --> 0:40:47.600
<v Speaker 1>partake in the voting process, and that can just be

0:40:48.000 --> 0:40:50.439
<v Speaker 1>frustrating all the way around. So Hannah's absolutely right. People

0:40:50.440 --> 0:40:52.560
<v Speaker 1>need to get out there and vote, and one can

0:40:52.640 --> 0:40:57.360
<v Speaker 1>go to Georgia voter guide dot com and there's a

0:40:57.440 --> 0:40:59.520
<v Speaker 1>full list of different places that will take you to

0:40:59.600 --> 0:41:02.080
<v Speaker 1>the polls if you need to ride. For different levels

0:41:02.120 --> 0:41:04.560
<v Speaker 1>of ability and disability. Nicholas hold On weigh in on

0:41:04.680 --> 0:41:08.359
<v Speaker 1>that last subject about all of the whole the voter

0:41:08.800 --> 0:41:10.920
<v Speaker 1>suppression that Vesper was talking about, because I know you

0:41:11.000 --> 0:41:12.680
<v Speaker 1>know about that because you're down and you in the South,

0:41:13.040 --> 0:41:15.960
<v Speaker 1>but but that's not unique to the South. This is

0:41:16.040 --> 0:41:19.120
<v Speaker 1>exactly what fair fight dot org has been about with

0:41:19.200 --> 0:41:23.840
<v Speaker 1>Stacy Abrahams. Regardless of where you live, the whole idea

0:41:23.920 --> 0:41:27.600
<v Speaker 1>behind voter suppression initially was, you know what, we're going

0:41:27.640 --> 0:41:29.719
<v Speaker 1>to create a barrier that blacks will have to be

0:41:29.719 --> 0:41:31.360
<v Speaker 1>able to read this and they need to add this

0:41:31.680 --> 0:41:36.120
<v Speaker 1>before they can vote. Jim Crow change that. Now we

0:41:36.239 --> 0:41:39.600
<v Speaker 1>move forward and there are new ways that they we marginalize.

0:41:40.040 --> 0:41:42.319
<v Speaker 1>Florida voters said, you know what, we want people who

0:41:42.360 --> 0:41:44.279
<v Speaker 1>have been convicted of a felony to have the right

0:41:44.320 --> 0:41:47.080
<v Speaker 1>to vote. The court comes in and says, oh, but

0:41:47.160 --> 0:41:50.560
<v Speaker 1>they need to pay their fines first, so again another barrier.

0:41:50.800 --> 0:41:53.960
<v Speaker 1>All of these are barriers to voting. What they've done

0:41:53.960 --> 0:41:56.920
<v Speaker 1>in Georgia, what they do in other places, this redistricting,

0:41:57.120 --> 0:42:01.160
<v Speaker 1>this gerrymandering, all of that is part of voter suppression

0:42:01.440 --> 0:42:03.200
<v Speaker 1>because what we want to do is want to divide,

0:42:03.280 --> 0:42:05.799
<v Speaker 1>is split up districts so that Lauren and I can

0:42:05.840 --> 0:42:07.839
<v Speaker 1>live across the street from each other, but we both

0:42:07.920 --> 0:42:11.279
<v Speaker 1>can't vote for the same representative to try and get

0:42:11.400 --> 0:42:14.840
<v Speaker 1>things that affect our neighborhood. As a whole. The idea

0:42:14.920 --> 0:42:18.560
<v Speaker 1>behind voter suppression in Georgia specifically, I've heard people right

0:42:18.640 --> 0:42:22.960
<v Speaker 1>and talk about is simply the runoff system Georgia decided

0:42:23.000 --> 0:42:24.800
<v Speaker 1>to some time ago you know what, Atlanta is a

0:42:24.880 --> 0:42:28.120
<v Speaker 1>little bit dark. We can't control Atlanta, but we got

0:42:28.200 --> 0:42:30.160
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the state. So what we'll do is

0:42:30.520 --> 0:42:33.719
<v Speaker 1>we'll create a situation where we have a runoff. The

0:42:33.880 --> 0:42:36.960
<v Speaker 1>likelihood of two candidates being in the runoff who are

0:42:37.040 --> 0:42:40.000
<v Speaker 1>African American are slim to none. This way, if one

0:42:40.080 --> 0:42:44.120
<v Speaker 1>of our people who are of a lighter hue is

0:42:44.200 --> 0:42:47.600
<v Speaker 1>running against an African American, chances are one of them

0:42:47.640 --> 0:42:50.239
<v Speaker 1>will be in the runoff. If that white person is

0:42:50.280 --> 0:42:53.239
<v Speaker 1>in the runoff against an African American. The idea is

0:42:53.719 --> 0:42:55.360
<v Speaker 1>those who sat back and say, oh, I don't need

0:42:55.400 --> 0:42:59.000
<v Speaker 1>to worry about it, because maybe I liked either one

0:42:59.040 --> 0:43:01.839
<v Speaker 1>of these two white Can it is who split the vote? Now?

0:43:02.080 --> 0:43:05.080
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, there's no choice here. I can't I

0:43:05.160 --> 0:43:08.359
<v Speaker 1>can't vote for this black guy. The problem with us

0:43:08.400 --> 0:43:12.920
<v Speaker 1>off for some is that he's Jewish, right, running in

0:43:13.160 --> 0:43:16.360
<v Speaker 1>the South, running in Georgia. For the most part. I

0:43:16.400 --> 0:43:18.000
<v Speaker 1>will tell you, though, flame you know, we keep talking

0:43:18.040 --> 0:43:20.959
<v Speaker 1>about the South. Atlanta doesn't really consider itself the South.

0:43:21.280 --> 0:43:24.360
<v Speaker 1>It considers itself a city that happens to be in Georgia.

0:43:24.880 --> 0:43:28.000
<v Speaker 1>I think most who live in Atlanta would argue they're

0:43:28.040 --> 0:43:30.920
<v Speaker 1>more progressive than you all in California. I think at

0:43:31.000 --> 0:43:34.200
<v Speaker 1>Lantin's tend to put themselves um from It's been my

0:43:34.280 --> 0:43:39.000
<v Speaker 1>experience that Atlanta's tend to um have delusion, not delusions

0:43:39.000 --> 0:43:42.360
<v Speaker 1>of grandeur, but they definitely do not consider themselves Southerners.

0:43:42.680 --> 0:43:45.719
<v Speaker 1>They cause you're you're right, You're you're right about that, Nick,

0:43:45.760 --> 0:43:47.200
<v Speaker 1>I will say, because you know, I did live in

0:43:47.239 --> 0:43:49.680
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta for four years. And what's what's said is that

0:43:50.160 --> 0:43:53.080
<v Speaker 1>there's Atlanta and then there's the rest of Georgia. That

0:43:53.280 --> 0:43:55.600
<v Speaker 1>is definitely something that said. And I do wanted to

0:43:55.760 --> 0:43:57.600
<v Speaker 1>add to what you just said to because part of

0:43:57.680 --> 0:44:01.239
<v Speaker 1>the voter suppression, too is also gentle cation, and that's

0:44:01.280 --> 0:44:05.200
<v Speaker 1>directly talied into housing, because you know, we gentrify colored

0:44:05.239 --> 0:44:07.480
<v Speaker 1>folks out of these areas and all of a sudden

0:44:07.480 --> 0:44:09.040
<v Speaker 1>they don't have anywhere to go. If you know, if

0:44:09.040 --> 0:44:11.640
<v Speaker 1>you don't have an actual address or a house of

0:44:11.760 --> 0:44:14.640
<v Speaker 1>where you're residing, you don't get a ballot, you can't

0:44:14.640 --> 0:44:17.000
<v Speaker 1>register to vote. So that's also part of the And Lauren,

0:44:17.040 --> 0:44:21.040
<v Speaker 1>that's everywhere, that's d C, that's San Francisco, that's l A.

0:44:21.520 --> 0:44:24.759
<v Speaker 1>There are neighborhoods where people what we were talking about

0:44:24.760 --> 0:44:26.840
<v Speaker 1>the wrong side of the ten flame. If you're on

0:44:26.840 --> 0:44:28.279
<v Speaker 1>the wrong side of the ten you know you in

0:44:28.360 --> 0:44:30.600
<v Speaker 1>the hood, right, or that was the idea. I live

0:44:30.640 --> 0:44:32.120
<v Speaker 1>in Long Beach. I don't know what you're talking about.

0:44:32.160 --> 0:44:35.319
<v Speaker 1>Believe it or not. There was a time though there

0:44:35.360 --> 0:44:38.200
<v Speaker 1>were parts of Long Beach they were considered hood right.

0:44:38.520 --> 0:44:42.880
<v Speaker 1>So no, actually where I live in Long Beach? Now? Uh,

0:44:43.000 --> 0:44:45.480
<v Speaker 1>In the seventies and sixties they used to have actually

0:44:46.160 --> 0:44:49.759
<v Speaker 1>klu Klux Land marches that, yes, but there are there

0:44:49.800 --> 0:44:55.359
<v Speaker 1>are all some some um ghetto areas of Long Beach.

0:44:56.120 --> 0:45:01.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying, I don't know that. Let me but they

0:45:01.280 --> 0:45:02.719
<v Speaker 1>got the best department, So let me just say that.

0:45:03.000 --> 0:45:08.399
<v Speaker 1>Any who. I hear you, Nicholas, I hear Lauren. I'm

0:45:08.440 --> 0:45:11.520
<v Speaker 1>talking about this, y'all talk about this voter suppression Georgia.

0:45:11.960 --> 0:45:15.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking to y'all right now, Atlanta, whatever wherever they have,

0:45:15.520 --> 0:45:18.920
<v Speaker 1>the whole state of Georgia be inconvenience for one day

0:45:19.520 --> 0:45:21.800
<v Speaker 1>being baby. From what I see, they said to me

0:45:21.840 --> 0:45:23.840
<v Speaker 1>and won't go vote ship Magic City down and some

0:45:23.880 --> 0:45:25.520

<v Speaker 1>down for a day, because whatever it takes, by any

0:45:30.520 --> 0:45:33.839
<v Speaker 1>means necessary. This is how Donald Trump almost won by

0:45:33.960 --> 0:45:37.520
<v Speaker 1>any means necessary. He adopted Malcolm X's philosophy and he

0:45:37.600 --> 0:45:40.800
<v Speaker 1>took it to heart. We always love to speak it,

0:45:41.040 --> 0:45:43.440
<v Speaker 1>but we got to walk it. We got to do

0:45:43.560 --> 0:45:45.400

<v Speaker 1>I hope wait a thing I do want to say

0:46:22.640 --> 0:46:24.880
<v Speaker 1>those shout out to strippers in Georgia because they did

0:46:25.000 --> 0:46:29.560
<v Speaker 1>create an entire campaign and they encouraged quite a few

0:46:29.600 --> 0:46:31.799
<v Speaker 1>people to go out and vote. Shout out to all

0:46:31.840 --> 0:46:34.600
<v Speaker 1>the strippers in Atlanta. Thank you for doing your completely agree.

0:46:34.800 --> 0:46:38.040
<v Speaker 1>We will actually talk about another city going through a

0:46:38.160 --> 0:46:45.000
<v Speaker 1>change right now. Chicago. Uh, Chicago, Chicago. I think Chicago

0:46:45.280 --> 0:46:48.239
<v Speaker 1>is a perfect example of how one can be an

0:46:48.280 --> 0:46:51.640
<v Speaker 1>industrial city and reinvent itself right because there was a

0:46:51.719 --> 0:46:53.719
<v Speaker 1>time when I think that there are those who would

0:46:53.760 --> 0:46:57.320
<v Speaker 1>argue and I please jump in flamets. Detroit and Chicago

0:46:57.360 --> 0:47:00.720
<v Speaker 1>were really the same city. Detroit was a living city

0:47:00.760 --> 0:47:03.520
<v Speaker 1>in the fifties sixties. People wanted to be in Detroit.

0:47:03.640 --> 0:47:06.839
<v Speaker 1>People raising great middle class families, middle class homes, people

0:47:06.840 --> 0:47:08.600
<v Speaker 1>were able to African Americans were able to go and

0:47:08.680 --> 0:47:11.040
<v Speaker 1>buy and they worked at Ford or they worked at GM.

0:47:11.320 --> 0:47:16.000
<v Speaker 1>They had great schools. Then when the industry changed, Detroit

0:47:16.120 --> 0:47:18.600
<v Speaker 1>didn't change with the times. Chicago found a way to

0:47:18.640 --> 0:47:22.640
<v Speaker 1>reinvent itself. In that reinvention, we now have an African

0:47:22.680 --> 0:47:25.080
<v Speaker 1>American mayor who seems to be getting some of the

0:47:25.160 --> 0:47:28.360
<v Speaker 1>same pressures that white mayors have gotten before her flying

0:47:29.040 --> 0:47:30.680
<v Speaker 1>and you know, I'm gonna speak about so y'all, first

0:47:30.680 --> 0:47:33.359
<v Speaker 1>of all, tell you something about Chicago. We're talking about

0:47:33.400 --> 0:47:38.080
<v Speaker 1>Mayor Lory Lightfoot, who completely annihilated Tony PreK in the

0:47:38.239 --> 0:47:40.120
<v Speaker 1>in the in the in the runoff. She beat her

0:47:40.200 --> 0:47:42.759
<v Speaker 1>in her own district. This is how bad she beat her.

0:47:43.000 --> 0:47:45.800
<v Speaker 1>So that goes to say that Chicago y'all really wanted

0:47:45.840 --> 0:47:48.440
<v Speaker 1>Lory Lightfoot to be mayor. Here's my problem with it.

0:47:48.520 --> 0:47:50.839
<v Speaker 1>So Lory Lightfood did tell a lie. We ain't gonna say.

0:47:50.880 --> 0:47:53.480
<v Speaker 1>She sugar coated the truth and she smoothed over. She

0:47:53.719 --> 0:47:55.359
<v Speaker 1>lied and said that she didn't know about the young

0:47:55.440 --> 0:47:58.360
<v Speaker 1>lady talked about two weeks ago. Yeah, that the police

0:47:58.400 --> 0:48:00.160
<v Speaker 1>came in her house and kept her neckd But such

0:48:00.160 --> 0:48:02.440
<v Speaker 1>a long time. But she had just gotten into the

0:48:02.560 --> 0:48:05.200
<v Speaker 1>job that this happened two years ago. This happened like

0:48:05.280 --> 0:48:07.440
<v Speaker 1>the first month or so that Lori Lifer was in

0:48:07.520 --> 0:48:10.520
<v Speaker 1>the job. So it wasn't like she had gotten used

0:48:10.560 --> 0:48:12.480
<v Speaker 1>to be in the mayor. You get you a job,

0:48:12.520 --> 0:48:14.640
<v Speaker 1>you hit a new job. You still it's a learning process.

0:48:14.719 --> 0:48:16.440
<v Speaker 1>You know what I mean, and I'm saying in my way.

0:48:16.480 --> 0:48:19.160
<v Speaker 1>I ain't speaking all technical and high booksh it. This

0:48:19.239 --> 0:48:23.000
<v Speaker 1>is not the way I talk any who. So she

0:48:23.239 --> 0:48:25.719
<v Speaker 1>was fresh in the job. But as black people, we

0:48:25.800 --> 0:48:28.680
<v Speaker 1>are ready. We are protesting and trying to strip this

0:48:28.760 --> 0:48:31.440
<v Speaker 1>woman off her job. We seeing as a people to

0:48:31.600 --> 0:48:36.160
<v Speaker 1>forgive white ugliness before we forgive black ugliness. And I

0:48:36.239 --> 0:48:39.160
<v Speaker 1>got a problem with that because they are protesting trying

0:48:39.160 --> 0:48:41.560
<v Speaker 1>to remove that her. You ain't never made a mistake

0:48:41.640 --> 0:48:44.600
<v Speaker 1>at your job and ask for a second chance. No,

0:48:45.040 --> 0:48:48.520
<v Speaker 1>here's the thing. Nobody died. I understand the humiliation of

0:48:48.600 --> 0:48:51.600
<v Speaker 1>this woman and the Frost station, but nobody died. We're

0:48:51.680 --> 0:48:54.959
<v Speaker 1>so quick to attack us. It shows how we treat

0:48:55.000 --> 0:48:57.239
<v Speaker 1>each other. It's how they treat us. So we keep

0:48:57.280 --> 0:48:59.759
<v Speaker 1>attacking us so that that they feel like it's okay

0:48:59.840 --> 0:49:02.800
<v Speaker 1>for them to attack us, because that's what we're showing them. Again,

0:49:03.160 --> 0:49:06.719
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to demand respect, you commanded. People treat

0:49:06.760 --> 0:49:08.759
<v Speaker 1>you the way they see you, treat you goddamn self.

0:49:08.960 --> 0:49:12.080
<v Speaker 1>And I'm tam Lorie Lightfoot. Apologize for the mistake. You

0:49:12.160 --> 0:49:14.479
<v Speaker 1>may say, yep, I made a mistake. I was fresh

0:49:14.520 --> 0:49:17.200
<v Speaker 1>and new or whatever, and keep it pushing. I'm tam

0:49:17.280 --> 0:49:19.480
<v Speaker 1>Lorie Lightfood. I like hers. She's a star brow too.

0:49:19.680 --> 0:49:21.600
<v Speaker 1>If you need a boyfriend or a girlfriend called me.

0:49:22.400 --> 0:49:25.640
<v Speaker 1>It's also important to mention to Lorie Lightfoot took responsibility

0:49:26.120 --> 0:49:27.800
<v Speaker 1>right where she stepped up, and she has owned it.

0:49:28.120 --> 0:49:31.280
<v Speaker 1>She has owned not being more proactive. She has owned

0:49:31.800 --> 0:49:35.640
<v Speaker 1>needing to apologize to Miss Jeanette's I forget her last name.

0:49:35.640 --> 0:49:38.160
<v Speaker 1>I want to. I want to give this young respect.

0:49:38.440 --> 0:49:41.000
<v Speaker 1>She's she's and she has met with her uh to

0:49:41.200 --> 0:49:43.200
<v Speaker 1>own it. So she didn't try to duck and dodge.

0:49:43.600 --> 0:49:47.200
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, definitely, no, Yeah, I definitely think that there's

0:49:47.239 --> 0:49:50.000
<v Speaker 1>a there's a double standard here for sure. But at

0:49:50.040 --> 0:49:52.359
<v Speaker 1>the same time, you know, we I think she does

0:49:52.440 --> 0:49:55.560
<v Speaker 1>deserve a second chance. However, but the narrative always is

0:49:55.840 --> 0:49:58.200
<v Speaker 1>as a person of color, you're supposed to look out

0:49:58.600 --> 0:50:01.279
<v Speaker 1>for your folks, and I think that's probably what people

0:50:01.320 --> 0:50:04.759
<v Speaker 1>are having trouble a hard time swallowing at this point,

0:50:04.920 --> 0:50:08.359
<v Speaker 1>is that not only you know, was this somebody black,

0:50:08.400 --> 0:50:10.960
<v Speaker 1>but she was also a woman and she was humiliated

0:50:11.000 --> 0:50:13.799
<v Speaker 1>in the worst way, thank you, so, But I'm saying

0:50:13.840 --> 0:50:16.399
<v Speaker 1>that what happens on Jeanette Young, she's black, she's a woman,

0:50:16.440 --> 0:50:19.600
<v Speaker 1>and she was really really humiliated in the worst kind

0:50:19.680 --> 0:50:22.440
<v Speaker 1>of way. So I think because of the circumstances, it's

0:50:22.440 --> 0:50:25.320
<v Speaker 1>adding more fuel to the fire. And that's why I

0:50:25.440 --> 0:50:29.520
<v Speaker 1>think uh mayor Lightfoot's receiving more backlash. But to you know,

0:50:29.960 --> 0:50:33.320
<v Speaker 1>your point, Nick and your point Flame, that she deserves

0:50:33.360 --> 0:50:36.400
<v Speaker 1>the second chance. She came out, she apologized, she recognized

0:50:36.440 --> 0:50:38.840
<v Speaker 1>the wrongdoing, and it's just like, learned from your mistakes,

0:50:39.200 --> 0:50:42.120
<v Speaker 1>don't do it again. But there's always going to be

0:50:42.200 --> 0:50:45.160
<v Speaker 1>that double standard because we are always taught that we

0:50:45.280 --> 0:50:47.560
<v Speaker 1>have to be ten times better at everything that we do,

0:50:47.760 --> 0:50:49.759
<v Speaker 1>so when we make a mistake, we're going to be

0:50:49.880 --> 0:50:52.800
<v Speaker 1>ridiculed more for it. So you know, learn from it.

0:50:52.880 --> 0:50:55.560
<v Speaker 1>And let's just you know, the last African American woman

0:50:55.680 --> 0:50:59.280
<v Speaker 1>to help somebody out of Chicago who did get backlash

0:51:00.560 --> 0:51:06.000
<v Speaker 1>was miss Fox who shifted the removed prosecuting justice small

0:51:06.040 --> 0:51:10.439
<v Speaker 1>at Remember that was Chicago also, So there are times

0:51:10.480 --> 0:51:12.960
<v Speaker 1>when when they do look out we look out for

0:51:13.239 --> 0:51:15.239
<v Speaker 1>and we do hold their feet to the fire. It's

0:51:15.280 --> 0:51:17.759
<v Speaker 1>not it's not correct. This is not one of those tams.

0:51:17.800 --> 0:51:19.960
<v Speaker 1>And I think they're handling this. I think they're handling

0:51:20.040 --> 0:51:23.120
<v Speaker 1>this completely incorrect. And I'm telling you that as a people,

0:51:23.160 --> 0:51:24.959
<v Speaker 1>we got to start for giving each other a little

0:51:24.960 --> 0:51:27.479
<v Speaker 1>bit more. So they'll start for giving us a little

0:51:27.480 --> 0:51:29.520
<v Speaker 1>bit more because we still don't hold the cards. You know,

0:51:29.719 --> 0:51:32.120
<v Speaker 1>sometimes you don't want to admit to And I loved

0:51:32.120 --> 0:51:34.359
<v Speaker 1>that all these young entrepreneurs and all these young men

0:51:34.480 --> 0:51:37.319
<v Speaker 1>and young women of power and money are branching out

0:51:37.360 --> 0:51:40.400
<v Speaker 1>and starting their own record labels and businesses. Who but

0:51:40.520 --> 0:51:43.320
<v Speaker 1>we're still playing in their sandbox, real talk. And they

0:51:43.440 --> 0:51:46.239
<v Speaker 1>proved it to us November the third, and that's trying

0:51:46.239 --> 0:51:47.600
<v Speaker 1>to prove it to us. Now. That's why we need

0:51:47.640 --> 0:51:49.840
<v Speaker 1>you to get in bup that we're playing in their sandbox. No,

0:51:50.040 --> 0:51:52.480
<v Speaker 1>this is our own corner of the sandbox, because first

0:51:52.480 --> 0:51:54.120
<v Speaker 1>of all, I was over in that sandbox over in

0:51:54.120 --> 0:51:57.320
<v Speaker 1>Africa when with you dancing at the Grascart, you shouldn't

0:51:57.320 --> 0:51:58.759
<v Speaker 1>have brought your airs over there with those pop as

0:51:58.920 --> 0:52:01.080
<v Speaker 1>chicken sungers and teased bitch, you know, I'm easy for

0:52:01.120 --> 0:52:03.399
<v Speaker 1>a piece of chicken. And you know what, But that's

0:52:03.480 --> 0:52:06.480
<v Speaker 1>I would almost argue that this sandbox is as much

0:52:06.560 --> 0:52:08.959
<v Speaker 1>ours as it is there's, if not more so, because

0:52:08.960 --> 0:52:11.840
<v Speaker 1>I do believe we built because we feel I just

0:52:12.000 --> 0:52:14.440
<v Speaker 1>feel that, I just feel as though we have to

0:52:14.520 --> 0:52:16.919
<v Speaker 1>collectively say, you know what, if these are the rules

0:52:16.960 --> 0:52:18.440
<v Speaker 1>we're all going to play by, or we're gonna tear

0:52:18.520 --> 0:52:20.960
<v Speaker 1>up the rule book and and move forward, closing out

0:52:21.000 --> 0:52:22.719
<v Speaker 1>on Lorrie life. But I just want to say, and

0:52:22.800 --> 0:52:26.440
<v Speaker 1>then you guys, wait, wait, wait, wait, nick, La, I'm

0:52:26.440 --> 0:52:28.440
<v Speaker 1>going to say into that though too. We always talk

0:52:28.480 --> 0:52:30.440
<v Speaker 1>about how we have to create our own table, and

0:52:30.560 --> 0:52:32.799
<v Speaker 1>we have to have a seat at this table. Once

0:52:32.840 --> 0:52:34.640
<v Speaker 1>we get a seat, two people, don't be so quick

0:52:34.680 --> 0:52:36.640
<v Speaker 1>to remove us from it just because you get a

0:52:36.680 --> 0:52:38.960
<v Speaker 1>little offended. You know, allow us to have the time

0:52:39.000 --> 0:52:41.600
<v Speaker 1>to figure it out and you know, and actually sit

0:52:41.680 --> 0:52:44.240
<v Speaker 1>in said seats so we can affect, you know, proper change.

0:52:44.640 --> 0:52:47.080
<v Speaker 1>And wait, Nick, before you say anything, thank you, Lauren.

0:52:47.760 --> 0:52:51.239
<v Speaker 1>Lor Lyfefoot is openly gay, understand, And in Chicago. I'm

0:52:51.239 --> 0:52:53.640
<v Speaker 1>from Chicago, baby, You've got to be tough in them

0:52:53.640 --> 0:52:56.440
<v Speaker 1>streets of Chicago because you know, do you know what

0:52:56.560 --> 0:52:59.080
<v Speaker 1>kind of backlash she is getting in corporate America where

0:52:59.120 --> 0:53:04.680
<v Speaker 1>she works, or around gay gay the word even in

0:53:04.800 --> 0:53:08.239
<v Speaker 1>some outside of our black community, people look at it.

0:53:08.280 --> 0:53:10.719
<v Speaker 1>And really, people as much as you guys are open

0:53:10.800 --> 0:53:12.880
<v Speaker 1>here on this page and receive me from what I

0:53:13.000 --> 0:53:15.040
<v Speaker 1>am and who I am because I'm comfortable with me.

0:53:15.600 --> 0:53:17.560
<v Speaker 1>A lot of people are still comfortable and sell. But

0:53:17.680 --> 0:53:19.799
<v Speaker 1>she's the mayor of the city of Chicago. It's very

0:53:19.960 --> 0:53:23.160
<v Speaker 1>Chicago is a very conservative city. It's what you don't know, y'all.

0:53:23.239 --> 0:53:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Just hear about the crime and ship Chicago is super concerned.

0:53:26.280 --> 0:53:28.719
<v Speaker 1>I can only imagine the names that she has been

0:53:28.800 --> 0:53:32.200
<v Speaker 1>called loud enough to hear in the same space to

0:53:32.320 --> 0:53:35.680
<v Speaker 1>put her. And she is a woman, whatever she identifies as.

0:53:36.120 --> 0:53:38.280
<v Speaker 1>She because she dressed like Uncle Willie from San Franson,

0:53:38.520 --> 0:53:40.800
<v Speaker 1>but she is a woman. She still has a woman's

0:53:40.840 --> 0:53:43.319
<v Speaker 1>hard mind and soul. I'm sure they have broke her

0:53:43.400 --> 0:53:45.480
<v Speaker 1>a couple of times where she had to break down

0:53:45.560 --> 0:53:48.600
<v Speaker 1>to her partner, and nobody is taking that consideration. Y'all

0:53:48.640 --> 0:53:50.320
<v Speaker 1>need to stop being so goddamn me and she the

0:53:50.400 --> 0:53:52.600
<v Speaker 1>letty made it damn mistake. I'm gonna make a couple

0:53:52.640 --> 0:53:54.479
<v Speaker 1>of before the show is over today, and I'm asking

0:53:54.600 --> 0:53:58.240
<v Speaker 1>for forgiveness that Gloria Wilmer, we see you. Gloria Wilmer

0:53:58.320 --> 0:54:01.280
<v Speaker 1>just said, truth be known, we engineer her civilizations. Gloria

0:54:01.320 --> 0:54:03.840
<v Speaker 1>Wilmer one of the flame mats. They're sounding off. We

0:54:04.000 --> 0:54:06.759
<v Speaker 1>just love that the altamen of color just got a

0:54:06.880 --> 0:54:10.080
<v Speaker 1>note Bobby sh Murder could get out of prison. You know,

0:54:10.320 --> 0:54:12.359
<v Speaker 1>you guys. We love that you guys continue to sound

0:54:12.440 --> 0:54:14.640
<v Speaker 1>off while we're having this conversation, because this is all

0:54:14.719 --> 0:54:18.200
<v Speaker 1>part of the conversation, different things that we're learning. Hannah Vesper,

0:54:18.239 --> 0:54:20.440
<v Speaker 1>who both just jumped in and shared information with us.

0:54:20.680 --> 0:54:22.560
<v Speaker 1>Lory Lyffoot, I just want to leave everybody with this

0:54:22.680 --> 0:54:24.920
<v Speaker 1>note to let everybody know that we're not bashing her.

0:54:24.960 --> 0:54:26.440
<v Speaker 1>We're just trying to call out what it is that

0:54:26.520 --> 0:54:29.120
<v Speaker 1>we're seeing it there on the ground. Lory Lightfoot did

0:54:29.239 --> 0:54:32.120
<v Speaker 1>mayor Lightfoot excuse me, uh did note that the police

0:54:32.120 --> 0:54:35.080
<v Speaker 1>department has made changes to a search warrant policy uh

0:54:35.239 --> 0:54:38.000
<v Speaker 1>since January, and that she has directed a review of

0:54:38.080 --> 0:54:40.840
<v Speaker 1>how this matter was handled. That is a direct so

0:54:41.040 --> 0:54:43.560
<v Speaker 1>she knows. Okay, this January four, if you mean for

0:54:43.680 --> 0:54:53.000
<v Speaker 1>three days free, all right, We're gonna bring you out

0:54:53.000 --> 0:54:54.239
<v Speaker 1>and we bring you back here. We want to get

0:54:54.280 --> 0:54:57.839
<v Speaker 1>some weight on it because we got Jessic's in Chicago, honey,

0:54:57.880 --> 0:55:00.400
<v Speaker 1>and I'm teeing Lory Lightfoot, miss justin h tell me

0:55:00.440 --> 0:55:02.359
<v Speaker 1>who you voted for because I ain't like that only

0:55:02.400 --> 0:55:07.319
<v Speaker 1>break Winkle. Let me just say, I ain't suit Hi,

0:55:08.880 --> 0:55:11.600
<v Speaker 1>how are you you in Chicago? What you think about me?

0:55:11.680 --> 0:55:15.680
<v Speaker 1>A lory Lightfoot? Okay? To be fair. When they wanted

0:55:15.760 --> 0:55:20.879
<v Speaker 1>to release the video, one of the city mayors, I'm sorry,

0:55:20.960 --> 0:55:23.440
<v Speaker 1>not the city mayor. One of the lawyers of the

0:55:23.520 --> 0:55:27.279
<v Speaker 1>City of Chicago asked the judge not to release it.

0:55:28.040 --> 0:55:32.839
<v Speaker 1>He has since resigned. I can't recall his name off

0:55:32.880 --> 0:55:35.960
<v Speaker 1>the bat because I had it written down, but he resigned,

0:55:36.800 --> 0:55:42.040
<v Speaker 1>so and uh, Mayor Lightfoot except that his recosignation. Also,

0:55:42.239 --> 0:55:46.240
<v Speaker 1>don't forget because everybody's pointing a finger at their Lightfoot,

0:55:46.320 --> 0:55:49.160
<v Speaker 1>which I am Team Lightfoot. I don't expect it to

0:55:49.239 --> 0:55:51.840
<v Speaker 1>be a saint. I'm not a saint. I expected to

0:55:51.920 --> 0:55:55.759
<v Speaker 1>do a good job, period. Man. Woman doesn't matter to me.

0:55:56.120 --> 0:55:58.680
<v Speaker 1>Do your job, that's what That's what I expect from

0:55:58.719 --> 0:56:03.440
<v Speaker 1>you when I support you to your job. Um. Also, um,

0:56:04.080 --> 0:56:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Superintendent Eddie Johnson, everybody's forgetting who the superintendent was. He

0:56:09.360 --> 0:56:12.040
<v Speaker 1>had that happened in the beginning of the year at

0:56:14.000 --> 0:56:17.000
<v Speaker 1>and all kinds of loop the loops happened with him.

0:56:17.640 --> 0:56:23.600
<v Speaker 1>He ended up resigning after that mine drew. When when

0:56:23.920 --> 0:56:29.400
<v Speaker 1>I believe Lakwen McDonald was shot seven or seven sex sixteen,

0:56:29.760 --> 0:56:32.920
<v Speaker 1>I know somebody else was. Unfortunately, I know there's more

0:56:33.000 --> 0:56:36.680
<v Speaker 1>than one victim that was shot multiple times. So I

0:56:36.719 --> 0:56:41.120
<v Speaker 1>apologize that I didn't get that correct. Um So. Also,

0:56:42.480 --> 0:56:45.839
<v Speaker 1>the superintendent before Eddie Johnson was thrown under the bus

0:56:46.000 --> 0:56:49.400
<v Speaker 1>by Robbie Manuel, he resigned. So we've had problems with

0:56:50.440 --> 0:56:54.279
<v Speaker 1>the mayors and the superintendent of the police not being

0:56:54.320 --> 0:56:56.239
<v Speaker 1>on the staying. Do you think that do you think

0:56:56.280 --> 0:56:58.319
<v Speaker 1>that they should remove Lory life? Do you think they

0:56:58.320 --> 0:57:02.839
<v Speaker 1>should give a second chance. No, they shouldn't remove her

0:57:03.000 --> 0:57:06.600
<v Speaker 1>because she's been trying to get at the root of

0:57:06.640 --> 0:57:09.440
<v Speaker 1>the problem with the weeds and the police department. Mind you,

0:57:09.680 --> 0:57:13.240
<v Speaker 1>I do support the police department. I do make them coffee,

0:57:14.000 --> 0:57:16.480
<v Speaker 1>have my volunteer when I do my volunteer work, I

0:57:16.560 --> 0:57:22.120
<v Speaker 1>do make them coffee. I treat and respect everyone until

0:57:22.160 --> 0:57:26.040
<v Speaker 1>you give me a reason that um But also but

0:57:26.240 --> 0:57:30.120
<v Speaker 1>also um so, we've had problems with the police department

0:57:30.360 --> 0:57:35.480
<v Speaker 1>and the god what is his name, the head of

0:57:35.560 --> 0:57:39.800
<v Speaker 1>the Federal Order Police, the union. He he's always he's

0:57:39.840 --> 0:57:44.880
<v Speaker 1>a Trump supporter, he's always all there. I just want

0:57:44.880 --> 0:57:46.480
<v Speaker 1>you to come back to the Lord Life, because girl,

0:57:46.520 --> 0:57:49.320
<v Speaker 1>you have taken me over the I'm not to see

0:57:49.320 --> 0:57:52.840
<v Speaker 1>the Wizard girl. What the hell are you going? I'm

0:57:52.880 --> 0:57:55.720
<v Speaker 1>not to see the Wizard girl, That's what I mean.

0:57:56.840 --> 0:58:01.360
<v Speaker 1>They're coming after Lord Life book home. Being the woman,

0:58:01.560 --> 0:58:05.760
<v Speaker 1>the mayor of our city. Yes she is the accountable,

0:58:05.800 --> 0:58:08.600
<v Speaker 1>the buck stop for her, but they forget that all

0:58:08.680 --> 0:58:12.400
<v Speaker 1>the little undercones that happened when people are trying to

0:58:12.640 --> 0:58:16.240
<v Speaker 1>one undermine her authority, and too they're trying to do

0:58:16.400 --> 0:58:19.439
<v Speaker 1>stuff behind you know where they're trying to cover each

0:58:19.440 --> 0:58:22.439
<v Speaker 1>other when they do missee Now, mind you, Like I said,

0:58:22.520 --> 0:58:25.400
<v Speaker 1>she has to atone for what happened on her watch,

0:58:25.600 --> 0:58:30.280
<v Speaker 1>which this happened und her watch. She has met it

0:58:30.440 --> 0:58:32.440
<v Speaker 1>was it was on the notes that she met with

0:58:32.840 --> 0:58:37.120
<v Speaker 1>with the lady. And I saw the videotape. I was horrified.

0:58:37.280 --> 0:58:42.080
<v Speaker 1>I was also I I I am so you know,

0:58:42.200 --> 0:58:44.880
<v Speaker 1>horrified at what happened to her, because I can't even

0:58:44.960 --> 0:58:49.640
<v Speaker 1>imagine being by yourself and you're you're changing, you're totally naked,

0:58:49.840 --> 0:58:52.000
<v Speaker 1>and they and they put you in handcuff with no

0:58:52.800 --> 0:58:55.439
<v Speaker 1>like they're nothing, you know, like you're not We're just saying,

0:58:55.520 --> 0:58:57.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, we always love when you weigh in. Thank

0:58:57.280 --> 0:59:00.320
<v Speaker 1>you my do you look beautiful? Happy New Year? Happy?

0:59:04.360 --> 0:59:06.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I think the the overall what she's talking

0:59:06.720 --> 0:59:09.920
<v Speaker 1>about is there's a lot of corruption within the Chicago government.

0:59:11.720 --> 0:59:13.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we just talked about facts. It is not

0:59:13.440 --> 0:59:16.800
<v Speaker 1>that nothing personally. Well, there's there's some corruption that she's

0:59:16.840 --> 0:59:19.480
<v Speaker 1>having to deal with, and you know, at the end

0:59:19.520 --> 0:59:21.280
<v Speaker 1>of the day, everything is being blamed on her, but

0:59:21.360 --> 0:59:24.840
<v Speaker 1>she inherited, you know, a corrupt system, and then she's

0:59:24.880 --> 0:59:27.439
<v Speaker 1>trying to weed the bad folks out and get it together.

0:59:27.600 --> 0:59:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Chicago politics been corrupt for so many years. I can

0:59:31.360 --> 0:59:33.080
<v Speaker 1>say because I'm from there. I can say, because I'm

0:59:33.080 --> 0:59:35.840
<v Speaker 1>from the Chicago politic has been corrupt for years. Signed

0:59:35.880 --> 0:59:38.680
<v Speaker 1>with them Daily's baby them Daily. That first day the

0:59:38.800 --> 0:59:40.280
<v Speaker 1>daddy was a gang. I don't can know what the

0:59:40.320 --> 0:59:42.960
<v Speaker 1>body is beared in airthing, But then we get who

0:59:43.000 --> 0:59:44.480
<v Speaker 1>we get. We had, we had a man, we had,

0:59:44.720 --> 0:59:46.760
<v Speaker 1>we had another black man. We had Harold Washington. Back

0:59:46.760 --> 0:59:48.560
<v Speaker 1>in the day with Harold Washing was strong wheeled and

0:59:49.160 --> 0:59:52.320
<v Speaker 1>he ended up dying from food poison. Now is it

0:59:52.440 --> 0:59:55.560
<v Speaker 1>food poison? Poison? Food? As to what way you use

0:59:55.640 --> 0:59:57.800
<v Speaker 1>the words I'm just saying. Then we had a gangster

0:59:57.880 --> 1:00:01.080
<v Speaker 1>man named Jane Byrne. She gave bad the projects of Turkey,

1:00:01.120 --> 1:00:02.840
<v Speaker 1>and that's how she wants. She gave us all the

1:00:02.880 --> 1:00:06.320
<v Speaker 1>turkey for Christmas. Seriously, this is how. This is how

1:00:06.400 --> 1:00:07.960
<v Speaker 1>Chicken had been getting us fun up for years. But

1:00:08.040 --> 1:00:09.920
<v Speaker 1>she if everybody in the projects of Chicken and then

1:00:09.960 --> 1:00:12.280
<v Speaker 1>said she was gonna take apartment in the Caprini Greens,

1:00:12.320 --> 1:00:14.400
<v Speaker 1>which was the most hurious project in the country at

1:00:14.440 --> 1:00:16.840
<v Speaker 1>that time. She came in the building, they probably took

1:00:17.000 --> 1:00:18.880
<v Speaker 1>us in the front and camera took right on the

1:00:18.920 --> 1:00:21.160
<v Speaker 1>back then and she didn't stayed. She got an apartment

1:00:21.240 --> 1:00:23.120
<v Speaker 1>and projects. Girl, if you don't knock it off, she says,

1:00:23.160 --> 1:00:25.960
<v Speaker 1>didn't gone. But then we had the other daily hold on,

1:00:26.960 --> 1:00:28.720
<v Speaker 1>we had another. We had the Sun Now the song

1:00:28.920 --> 1:00:32.760
<v Speaker 1>was Gangster. He made Chicago beautiful. The Chicago skyline is

1:00:32.840 --> 1:00:36.720
<v Speaker 1>absolutely now, the city downtown is beautiful. The corruption is

1:00:36.760 --> 1:00:39.600
<v Speaker 1>still there. Yes, I know Harold was murdered. Y'alln't listened

1:00:39.600 --> 1:00:43.120
<v Speaker 1>to what I said. I'm not gonna say that. You said, um,

1:00:43.520 --> 1:00:46.320
<v Speaker 1>the city is beautiful. But his wife Maggie, who suffered

1:00:46.320 --> 1:00:49.240
<v Speaker 1>from cancer for years and battle battle battle cancer. He

1:00:49.360 --> 1:00:51.520
<v Speaker 1>had a black secretary that worked behind him on the

1:00:51.640 --> 1:00:54.080
<v Speaker 1>low low. Him and the black secretary was like missing

1:00:54.120 --> 1:00:56.160
<v Speaker 1>me and Mrs Jones. They had the thing going on.

1:00:56.760 --> 1:00:59.960
<v Speaker 1>After Maggie Dad, she gave him his approved, her approved

1:01:00.080 --> 1:01:02.320
<v Speaker 1>vote to go on and be with somebody else. He

1:01:02.480 --> 1:01:05.120
<v Speaker 1>married the black girl. We ain't seen or heard from

1:01:05.160 --> 1:01:08.080
<v Speaker 1>Mayor Daily since because Mayor Daily get caught up on

1:01:08.200 --> 1:01:11.720
<v Speaker 1>that black girl magic, because that black girl magic. And

1:01:11.840 --> 1:01:14.240
<v Speaker 1>at the Maggie said, I'm leaving here. He got but

1:01:14.360 --> 1:01:16.720
<v Speaker 1>she not only did he hook up with this black woman,

1:01:17.200 --> 1:01:19.880
<v Speaker 1>he married this black woman. She had some black girl

1:01:19.960 --> 1:01:25.840
<v Speaker 1>voodoo magic. Well, let's bring Nick back and so we

1:01:25.880 --> 1:01:28.800
<v Speaker 1>can slide into this last topic, which I think is

1:01:28.840 --> 1:01:31.680
<v Speaker 1>going to be a major topic that we're really going

1:01:31.720 --> 1:01:34.240
<v Speaker 1>to have to go through. So they're gonna go deep, y'all.

1:01:34.320 --> 1:01:36.800
<v Speaker 1>I can't handle deep. We're gonna talk about this last

1:01:36.840 --> 1:01:42.640
<v Speaker 1>topic nasty all day today, all day today. A couple

1:01:42.680 --> 1:01:45.000
<v Speaker 1>of things before I want to close out with LORI

1:01:45.160 --> 1:01:46.640
<v Speaker 1>life for a couple of things I just want to

1:01:46.680 --> 1:01:48.920
<v Speaker 1>touch on that was brought up with that last uh

1:01:49.720 --> 1:01:52.240
<v Speaker 1>I guess because she's absolutely right. It looks like, just

1:01:52.360 --> 1:01:55.200
<v Speaker 1>so people know the video shows the Chicago police officers

1:01:55.240 --> 1:01:57.080
<v Speaker 1>smashed up on the door of fifty year old and

1:01:57.200 --> 1:02:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Jeanette Young's townhouse in February twenty nine. Team Lightfoot, who

1:02:02.800 --> 1:02:06.720
<v Speaker 1>was who promised to bring more transparency and accountability to Chicago,

1:02:07.200 --> 1:02:10.120
<v Speaker 1>took office in April of twenty nineteen. So she was

1:02:10.200 --> 1:02:12.840
<v Speaker 1>not Mayor win this one down. And it's just important

1:02:12.840 --> 1:02:15.600
<v Speaker 1>that we kind of kind of mentioned that, let them know, Hey, Okay,

1:02:16.000 --> 1:02:19.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, leave that woman alone, y'all. And you know

1:02:19.600 --> 1:02:24.840
<v Speaker 1>what you remember Burn Mayor Burn I just talked about

1:02:27.720 --> 1:02:31.680
<v Speaker 1>and she lived in Cabrini Greenford. No, no, no, she

1:02:31.920 --> 1:02:34.560
<v Speaker 1>she took that no no, no, no, no no, she

1:02:34.760 --> 1:02:37.720
<v Speaker 1>walked through Capparini Green She and she took that apartment

1:02:37.760 --> 1:02:45.360
<v Speaker 1>at CANU that uh huh. And they we saw the

1:02:45.440 --> 1:02:48.160
<v Speaker 1>camera walking in. Understand that they didn't have a They

1:02:48.240 --> 1:02:51.480
<v Speaker 1>had a back door in Caprina Green. She was hanging

1:02:51.520 --> 1:02:59.240
<v Speaker 1>out of Caprina Green playing state And this is why

1:02:59.360 --> 1:03:06.840
<v Speaker 1>she's my long Lord. I needed help with that. Lad.

1:03:08.160 --> 1:03:11.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry. I just feel like our last subject is

1:03:11.600 --> 1:03:13.400
<v Speaker 1>so heavy, but we felt like we just had to

1:03:13.480 --> 1:03:15.920
<v Speaker 1>kind of talk about it there. Um, Lauren, go ahead,

1:03:16.120 --> 1:03:20.880
<v Speaker 1>take us away. Yeah, So, um, Nick, you actually sent

1:03:21.000 --> 1:03:23.920
<v Speaker 1>us this article. UM. But an eight year old boy

1:03:24.120 --> 1:03:26.720
<v Speaker 1>named Gabriel Tay he was in the third grade. He

1:03:26.760 --> 1:03:30.880
<v Speaker 1>actually committed suicide in seventeen and it was due to

1:03:30.960 --> 1:03:35.120
<v Speaker 1>him being bullied at school. Um And, so this was

1:03:35.240 --> 1:03:39.640
<v Speaker 1>January seen. His parents have since UM filed a lawsuit

1:03:39.680 --> 1:03:42.520
<v Speaker 1>against an alleges that Gabriel was attacked by another student

1:03:42.960 --> 1:03:44.920
<v Speaker 1>while he was at school and was left unconscious at

1:03:44.960 --> 1:03:47.760
<v Speaker 1>one point. There's also a video that shows Gabriel lying

1:03:47.800 --> 1:03:50.080
<v Speaker 1>on the floor for more than five minutes before any

1:03:50.160 --> 1:03:53.120
<v Speaker 1>help was received for him. And Gabriel's parents were saying

1:03:53.160 --> 1:03:55.600
<v Speaker 1>in their lawsuit that the principle and the assistant principle

1:03:55.840 --> 1:03:58.880
<v Speaker 1>knew Gabriel was being bullied but did not communicate that

1:03:58.960 --> 1:04:02.840
<v Speaker 1>information to his parrants. So they're basically saying that the

1:04:02.880 --> 1:04:04.960
<v Speaker 1>school is at fault and that um they need to

1:04:05.040 --> 1:04:07.040
<v Speaker 1>do something. And that's that's one of the reason why

1:04:07.120 --> 1:04:11.240
<v Speaker 1>we started talking about this topic because UM, I personally believe,

1:04:11.400 --> 1:04:16.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, uh, these parents deserve to have some type

1:04:16.680 --> 1:04:20.960
<v Speaker 1>of justice for the death of their child. Um And

1:04:21.240 --> 1:04:24.600
<v Speaker 1>And I know people say, Nick, I don't want teachers

1:04:24.680 --> 1:04:26.920
<v Speaker 1>hitting my kids. I don't want some kid feeling like

1:04:27.000 --> 1:04:30.840
<v Speaker 1>they don't have an out and uh, this this is

1:04:30.880 --> 1:04:33.360
<v Speaker 1>what happens. I need teachers to intervene, and I know

1:04:33.480 --> 1:04:35.120
<v Speaker 1>that's not their job, and I don't know what to say.

1:04:35.320 --> 1:04:37.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm just saying that I don't think a three somebody

1:04:37.680 --> 1:04:40.160
<v Speaker 1>in the third grade, y'all, third grade, you know that

1:04:40.520 --> 1:04:42.320
<v Speaker 1>that that broke my heart. That's why I shared it,

1:04:42.440 --> 1:04:46.600
<v Speaker 1>you know. I mean, I have have a couple of thoughts.

1:04:46.840 --> 1:04:50.480
<v Speaker 1>So one, I don't think that the school is solely responsible.

1:04:51.040 --> 1:04:52.920
<v Speaker 1>Um now, the incident of him being bullied and laying

1:04:53.000 --> 1:04:54.800
<v Speaker 1>on the floor for five minutes not being helped, that

1:04:54.920 --> 1:04:56.840
<v Speaker 1>is absolutely on the school. They should have done something

1:04:56.880 --> 1:04:59.880
<v Speaker 1>about that. But I don't know. Maybe it's the way

1:05:00.000 --> 1:05:03.440
<v Speaker 1>it I was raised, but my parents knew when something

1:05:03.560 --> 1:05:06.360
<v Speaker 1>was wrong with me. I can't imagine this kid going

1:05:06.440 --> 1:05:09.440
<v Speaker 1>to school being bullied and the parents saw nothing. I

1:05:09.600 --> 1:05:11.480
<v Speaker 1>understand that. You know, they may have been working, they

1:05:11.480 --> 1:05:13.360
<v Speaker 1>couldn't take time off to come up to the school.

1:05:13.760 --> 1:05:17.040
<v Speaker 1>Everybody's circumstances are different, but there's just no way that

1:05:17.160 --> 1:05:19.160
<v Speaker 1>you didn't know something was going on with your kid.

1:05:19.600 --> 1:05:21.680
<v Speaker 1>And even in the instance where you can't go to

1:05:21.760 --> 1:05:25.560
<v Speaker 1>the school. My mom straight up was like you getting

1:05:25.600 --> 1:05:29.080
<v Speaker 1>bullied because I got bullied when I was younger. She

1:05:29.200 --> 1:05:30.960
<v Speaker 1>encouraged me to fight. We can just we're gonna take

1:05:31.000 --> 1:05:33.520
<v Speaker 1>it there. I was encouraged to fight, and my instructions

1:05:33.560 --> 1:05:36.120
<v Speaker 1>were clocked that heap and when she's not looking, Lauren,

1:05:36.600 --> 1:05:40.400
<v Speaker 1>straight up, straight up, clock her. When she's not looking,

1:05:40.440 --> 1:05:42.480
<v Speaker 1>I guarantee you she's going to leave you alone. And

1:05:42.560 --> 1:05:45.920
<v Speaker 1>what you get in trouble probably, what you get suspended, probably,

1:05:46.000 --> 1:05:47.360
<v Speaker 1>But guess what, I'm gonna be right up at that

1:05:47.440 --> 1:05:49.960
<v Speaker 1>school when I can get there, supporting you and defending

1:05:50.000 --> 1:05:52.600
<v Speaker 1>your actions. Because you don't you don't allow yourself to

1:05:52.640 --> 1:05:55.880
<v Speaker 1>get bullied. There's ways to figure that out. So that's

1:05:55.880 --> 1:05:58.640
<v Speaker 1>why I'm saying, yes, this is the school responsible on

1:05:58.720 --> 1:06:02.000
<v Speaker 1>one front, absolutely, because you're kid goes into this classroom,

1:06:02.400 --> 1:06:05.720
<v Speaker 1>this school, and it's the teacher, principal, assistant, principle. It's

1:06:05.720 --> 1:06:07.520
<v Speaker 1>their job to take care of you within these six

1:06:07.560 --> 1:06:10.439
<v Speaker 1>to eight hours that you're there. Absolutely, But it's also

1:06:10.520 --> 1:06:13.080
<v Speaker 1>the parents job when your kid comes home, to check

1:06:13.120 --> 1:06:14.880
<v Speaker 1>in with your kid and make sure that they're okay,

1:06:14.960 --> 1:06:17.880
<v Speaker 1>and then instruct them properly, properly of how you need

1:06:17.960 --> 1:06:21.600
<v Speaker 1>to handle themselves. When they're away from you. Okay. So

1:06:21.800 --> 1:06:26.480
<v Speaker 1>thus were the both the textbook and no no kid policies.

1:06:26.960 --> 1:06:30.160
<v Speaker 1>Let me talk to you as a parent. Now came

1:06:33.920 --> 1:06:37.520
<v Speaker 1>with my kids. I'm showing up period. I'm going to

1:06:37.600 --> 1:06:39.840
<v Speaker 1>follow protocol which I have and if you watch me

1:06:39.920 --> 1:06:42.520
<v Speaker 1>on the ready, I talked about this subject. All my

1:06:42.680 --> 1:06:45.720
<v Speaker 1>jokes got some truth to the stories. If you, if

1:06:45.760 --> 1:06:47.840
<v Speaker 1>I follow protocol, which is go up to the school

1:06:47.880 --> 1:06:50.480
<v Speaker 1>and speak with the principles, speak with whoever is in administration,

1:06:50.560 --> 1:06:53.040
<v Speaker 1>speak with security that my child, my child is being

1:06:53.320 --> 1:06:55.960
<v Speaker 1>and you do nothing. Step two is I'm not gonna

1:06:56.040 --> 1:06:58.440
<v Speaker 1>wait because bullying these days don't mean what it meant

1:06:58.480 --> 1:07:00.439
<v Speaker 1>when I was a kid. Bullying we you to fight

1:07:00.760 --> 1:07:02.760
<v Speaker 1>and all that. See, Nicholas never had a fight in

1:07:02.840 --> 1:07:04.880
<v Speaker 1>his life. Let me first, let me go back. Nicholas

1:07:04.960 --> 1:07:08.000
<v Speaker 1>never had a fight. You see them hands this nigga

1:07:08.040 --> 1:07:10.040
<v Speaker 1>will get down because they fought me because I was

1:07:10.120 --> 1:07:12.919
<v Speaker 1>sissy markets or they fought me because I I lived

1:07:12.960 --> 1:07:15.120
<v Speaker 1>the life that I wanted to live. Whatever the reason was,

1:07:15.520 --> 1:07:18.200
<v Speaker 1>it taught me to fight some people that I fought

1:07:18.640 --> 1:07:22.560
<v Speaker 1>on Monday, mean mug on Tuesday, smiled at on Wednesday,

1:07:23.080 --> 1:07:25.840
<v Speaker 1>winked that on Thursday, and we were speaking again on Friday.

1:07:26.160 --> 1:07:28.280
<v Speaker 1>We are our best friends to this day. This is

1:07:28.320 --> 1:07:31.920
<v Speaker 1>fifty years ago. This the hostility of these children not

1:07:32.040 --> 1:07:34.960
<v Speaker 1>being able to release all this aggression and its frustration

1:07:35.040 --> 1:07:38.000
<v Speaker 1>and it's hurt because of the Internet and cell phones

1:07:38.080 --> 1:07:41.400
<v Speaker 1>and woo woo, they need someplace to let it out. Unfortunately,

1:07:41.480 --> 1:07:45.600
<v Speaker 1>because we encourage children non violence and don't fight, they

1:07:45.800 --> 1:07:47.680
<v Speaker 1>all this is built up on them. So now they're

1:07:47.680 --> 1:07:49.920
<v Speaker 1>snapping out and they're killing their parents, or they're going

1:07:50.000 --> 1:07:52.360
<v Speaker 1>to shooting up the schools, and then they're cutting themselves.

1:07:52.560 --> 1:07:55.480
<v Speaker 1>They're hurting themselves. Sometimes these kids need to have a

1:07:55.520 --> 1:07:57.600
<v Speaker 1>good old fashioned fist fight to get the ship up

1:07:57.600 --> 1:07:59.920
<v Speaker 1>all of them. But if you funk with my kids

1:08:00.000 --> 1:08:01.640
<v Speaker 1>and my kid is being bullied and you don't follow

1:08:01.640 --> 1:08:04.000
<v Speaker 1>a protocol, I will fight your kids. Let me just

1:08:04.120 --> 1:08:05.720
<v Speaker 1>say I'm not the only black bitch on here there

1:08:05.800 --> 1:08:08.200
<v Speaker 1>to say that I will fight your I will meet

1:08:08.240 --> 1:08:10.280
<v Speaker 1>your kid on the barkat lot or in the playgrou

1:08:10.400 --> 1:08:12.840
<v Speaker 1>and fight your kid. And I know that sounds fame.

1:08:12.880 --> 1:08:16.240
<v Speaker 1>You can't fight a kid. Some of these kids don't

1:08:16.280 --> 1:08:18.800
<v Speaker 1>act like kids because they were raised by children. So

1:08:18.920 --> 1:08:21.559
<v Speaker 1>they are the ones that are in control. My children

1:08:21.600 --> 1:08:24.280
<v Speaker 1>don't run my house. They think they do. But when

1:08:24.360 --> 1:08:26.040
<v Speaker 1>I get mad and take this weird off and the

1:08:26.160 --> 1:08:28.759
<v Speaker 1>boys get deep, they run for the corners like roaches

1:08:28.760 --> 1:08:30.439
<v Speaker 1>when you cut on the light in the kitchen because

1:08:30.479 --> 1:08:32.439
<v Speaker 1>they know they didn't cross the land. And I'm not

1:08:32.600 --> 1:08:34.840
<v Speaker 1>having it. These kids not scared of their parents, and

1:08:34.920 --> 1:08:37.680
<v Speaker 1>these youngest parents ain't raising their kids. Some of these

1:08:37.760 --> 1:08:40.519
<v Speaker 1>kids will hurt your children. Sometimes you have to meet

1:08:40.560 --> 1:08:42.760
<v Speaker 1>fire with fire. And that's why my name is flame,

1:08:42.760 --> 1:08:45.599
<v Speaker 1>because if your kid funk with my kids, they're gonna

1:08:45.640 --> 1:08:47.960
<v Speaker 1>meet the fire that is flame. But no, yeah, but

1:08:48.080 --> 1:08:49.880
<v Speaker 1>that's I would say, that's the dad in you, because

1:08:50.000 --> 1:08:52.559
<v Speaker 1>even for me and my mother is crazy as all

1:08:52.640 --> 1:08:54.479
<v Speaker 1>can get out, and you know, love her dearly for it.

1:08:54.560 --> 1:08:57.200
<v Speaker 1>She's always been the helicopter mom. But everybody knew my

1:08:57.280 --> 1:08:59.479
<v Speaker 1>mom was crazy. But it's when my dad showed up.

1:08:59.640 --> 1:09:02.040
<v Speaker 1>That's what we called the brigade. We didn't want him

1:09:02.080 --> 1:09:04.200
<v Speaker 1>showing up. We didn't. That's when everybody was like, Okay,

1:09:04.240 --> 1:09:06.639
<v Speaker 1>he's coming up here to shoot. We don't want them problems.

1:09:06.760 --> 1:09:10.040
<v Speaker 1>As crazy as my mother was, my dad was feared. Okay,

1:09:10.120 --> 1:09:11.720
<v Speaker 1>So that's what I'm saying that's that's the dad, and

1:09:11.760 --> 1:09:14.599
<v Speaker 1>you're talking about fighting kids and not that's that's the dad,

1:09:14.640 --> 1:09:17.920
<v Speaker 1>and you in protecting your your you're young. Well you

1:09:18.000 --> 1:09:19.760
<v Speaker 1>know what I said on the ready, I said when

1:09:20.040 --> 1:09:21.439
<v Speaker 1>when I went up there to read the little boy,

1:09:21.439 --> 1:09:23.760
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't in drag the space and a beard and

1:09:23.760 --> 1:09:25.760
<v Speaker 1>a bad breath. So he went home and told that

1:09:25.840 --> 1:09:27.599
<v Speaker 1>his mom and dad that he was attacked by her

1:09:27.680 --> 1:09:33.240
<v Speaker 1>mom and dad. That Nick, And I'm not encouraging anyone

1:09:33.320 --> 1:09:35.560
<v Speaker 1>to go fight somebody else's children, but I love what

1:09:35.640 --> 1:09:38.360
<v Speaker 1>you're saying. You need to cover your children, and good

1:09:38.400 --> 1:09:40.920
<v Speaker 1>parents are the first to discipline their children, but they

1:09:41.000 --> 1:09:43.280
<v Speaker 1>also are the first to defend that you. My mother's

1:09:43.320 --> 1:09:45.240
<v Speaker 1>name never came up to the school to see about me.

1:09:45.439 --> 1:09:47.439
<v Speaker 1>My mother never came when I got in trouble. I

1:09:47.520 --> 1:09:49.760
<v Speaker 1>got into fight, so I had altercations because she never

1:09:49.840 --> 1:09:51.640
<v Speaker 1>came to see about me. I knew that when I

1:09:51.720 --> 1:09:54.280
<v Speaker 1>became a parent, that was not gonna be my story

1:09:54.360 --> 1:09:56.920
<v Speaker 1>for my children because I'm like Lawrence Dad. They hate

1:09:56.920 --> 1:09:59.240
<v Speaker 1>to see me coming because I showed up like Mdia.

1:09:59.240 --> 1:10:02.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm cussing out everybody first, especially when it comes to

1:10:02.080 --> 1:10:04.240
<v Speaker 1>my children and I've always told my children, and both

1:10:04.240 --> 1:10:06.160
<v Speaker 1>of you guys know my children. You tell me the

1:10:06.240 --> 1:10:08.680
<v Speaker 1>truth right in their face. Whatever the principal says about you,

1:10:08.720 --> 1:10:10.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna believe you first, because you don't lie to me.

1:10:10.720 --> 1:10:12.920
<v Speaker 1>I teach my children never to lie to me. I'm

1:10:12.920 --> 1:10:14.720
<v Speaker 1>still working on their last one. But I teach my

1:10:14.840 --> 1:10:16.920
<v Speaker 1>children never to lie to me. But you stand flat

1:10:16.960 --> 1:10:18.840
<v Speaker 1>foot and look in their face, because I'm gonna let

1:10:18.880 --> 1:10:20.800
<v Speaker 1>them tell their story, and then they're gonna let you

1:10:20.880 --> 1:10:22.960
<v Speaker 1>tell you. And I'm giving y'all. For instance. So I

1:10:23.040 --> 1:10:25.200
<v Speaker 1>had an altercation two years ago because you know about this,

1:10:25.320 --> 1:10:28.120
<v Speaker 1>at the school my baby girl. The principal was a

1:10:28.200 --> 1:10:30.080
<v Speaker 1>son of a bit. He was, and he told he

1:10:30.160 --> 1:10:32.960
<v Speaker 1>said a racist remark to my kids. We were driving

1:10:33.040 --> 1:10:35.040
<v Speaker 1>home from school. She told me, I turned the car

1:10:35.160 --> 1:10:39.760
<v Speaker 1>around mid show I had a nineteen eighty nine. Uh what,

1:10:40.000 --> 1:10:42.960
<v Speaker 1>I have a big gas truck, a General motor something.

1:10:43.200 --> 1:10:45.519
<v Speaker 1>It was a old cranker. We called a BIRTHA God

1:10:45.640 --> 1:10:47.599
<v Speaker 1>is good. Two years later I got something new. Any who,

1:10:48.240 --> 1:10:52.880
<v Speaker 1>We went right back, and she begged me not to

1:10:52.920 --> 1:10:54.720
<v Speaker 1>go back because she didn't want to conversate because she

1:10:54.800 --> 1:10:56.639
<v Speaker 1>knows how I am about them. She knows that I'm

1:10:56.640 --> 1:10:59.160
<v Speaker 1>super overprotective. I said, you say the same thing to

1:10:59.280 --> 1:11:02.719
<v Speaker 1>him that you said to me. He she told her story,

1:11:03.560 --> 1:11:06.160
<v Speaker 1>and he, you know, he told his story first, and

1:11:06.240 --> 1:11:08.680
<v Speaker 1>I never interrupted him, neither did she did. She was

1:11:08.760 --> 1:11:11.720
<v Speaker 1>telling her story and he interrupted her, and I said, stop.

1:11:12.439 --> 1:11:14.800
<v Speaker 1>She didn't interrupt your story. Let her tell her story.

1:11:15.000 --> 1:11:17.680
<v Speaker 1>My daughter told the story to me and to him

1:11:17.800 --> 1:11:20.719
<v Speaker 1>in his face, the exact same way she had said

1:11:20.760 --> 1:11:23.400
<v Speaker 1>it in the car. I knew my daughter was not lying.

1:11:23.960 --> 1:11:27.040
<v Speaker 1>Baby that wasn't rehearsed every me and that man headed

1:11:27.080 --> 1:11:29.360
<v Speaker 1>out at the school. He is now the principal at

1:11:29.360 --> 1:11:31.160
<v Speaker 1>the school that she's at, and for two years he

1:11:31.240 --> 1:11:33.320
<v Speaker 1>has been to my shows to see my shows. He

1:11:33.439 --> 1:11:36.479
<v Speaker 1>supports me. I'm not and I'm telling you. But because

1:11:36.560 --> 1:11:39.720
<v Speaker 1>I addressed that as Lauren say, as the dad, and

1:11:39.840 --> 1:11:42.400
<v Speaker 1>he didn't see the flamer bro, he saw that other one.

1:11:42.880 --> 1:11:46.760
<v Speaker 1>And we are cool. Sometimes, like again, we go back

1:11:46.800 --> 1:11:49.960
<v Speaker 1>to people treat you the way they see you treat yourself.

1:11:50.240 --> 1:11:52.320
<v Speaker 1>So many of my children's friends are well to do,

1:11:52.520 --> 1:11:54.840
<v Speaker 1>kids with money and woo woo, but they spend more

1:11:54.920 --> 1:11:57.240
<v Speaker 1>time with the nanny's than they do with the parents.

1:11:57.479 --> 1:11:59.160
<v Speaker 1>I eat they like to hang out with us because

1:11:59.160 --> 1:12:01.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm always at home. I'm a hands on dad, even

1:12:01.840 --> 1:12:03.960
<v Speaker 1>on the days, and I want to be And I

1:12:04.040 --> 1:12:06.200
<v Speaker 1>think that's the point to you gotta have you gotta

1:12:06.200 --> 1:12:08.120
<v Speaker 1>be hands on with your kids as much as possible.

1:12:08.160 --> 1:12:11.000
<v Speaker 1>I understand, like I said, everybody's circumstances are different, but

1:12:11.200 --> 1:12:14.200
<v Speaker 1>like those car ride homes from school back to the house,

1:12:14.360 --> 1:12:16.760
<v Speaker 1>that was important time with me and my mom or

1:12:16.800 --> 1:12:19.960
<v Speaker 1>my dad because they wanted to know what happened at school.

1:12:20.040 --> 1:12:22.160
<v Speaker 1>Just like Flame talked about some your principal made a

1:12:22.240 --> 1:12:24.560
<v Speaker 1>racist comment, what happened today as cool, That's not the

1:12:24.640 --> 1:12:27.880
<v Speaker 1>job of the nanny. But this is something completely Because

1:12:27.920 --> 1:12:31.000
<v Speaker 1>you all talked about being hands on parents, I'm often

1:12:31.080 --> 1:12:34.000
<v Speaker 1>criticized or still even to this day, tease by friends

1:12:34.040 --> 1:12:35.439
<v Speaker 1>in mine for that. They're like, Nick, you still call

1:12:35.479 --> 1:12:38.320
<v Speaker 1>your mother mom like I never called I joke with

1:12:38.640 --> 1:12:40.479
<v Speaker 1>I said, you know, Mr Rozetta got on my nurse today,

1:12:40.640 --> 1:12:42.600
<v Speaker 1>but I would never say to my mother Rosetta. I

1:12:42.760 --> 1:12:45.639
<v Speaker 1>told you, like, there's still this. I am not a child,

1:12:45.720 --> 1:12:48.040
<v Speaker 1>and I still fear my mother in some ways, you

1:12:48.120 --> 1:12:50.160
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying. There And we did talk and

1:12:50.240 --> 1:12:55.000
<v Speaker 1>we played, we played Monopoly together, sorry, and things like that.

1:12:55.120 --> 1:12:57.759
<v Speaker 1>We played board games together, you know, and we should

1:12:57.840 --> 1:13:02.599
<v Speaker 1>encourage your reading. But but I've had two divorces now, Flame,

1:13:02.920 --> 1:13:05.679
<v Speaker 1>because why are you gonna talk to your mama every

1:13:05.800 --> 1:13:08.360
<v Speaker 1>damn day? You know that ain't healthy you you need

1:13:08.439 --> 1:13:11.840
<v Speaker 1>to so so so so, I don't know, Flame, Is

1:13:11.880 --> 1:13:15.360
<v Speaker 1>it possible to be too much of a parent too? Well? Well,

1:13:15.400 --> 1:13:17.840
<v Speaker 1>I want to go back to the original topic, which

1:13:18.000 --> 1:13:21.040
<v Speaker 1>was that the eight year boy eight year old boy

1:13:21.120 --> 1:13:23.360
<v Speaker 1>killed himself. This is what I'm talking. I don't know

1:13:23.520 --> 1:13:25.519
<v Speaker 1>his situation. I don't know whether he was gay, whatever

1:13:25.560 --> 1:13:27.160
<v Speaker 1>they bullied him for. But I want to give hats

1:13:27.200 --> 1:13:29.600
<v Speaker 1>off to the Wayne Way because had I had a

1:13:29.720 --> 1:13:32.200
<v Speaker 1>parent in my home that cared about me at eight

1:13:32.280 --> 1:13:34.000
<v Speaker 1>years old like that, you know, my mother was there,

1:13:34.040 --> 1:13:35.760
<v Speaker 1>but my mother was on George'll we already know the

1:13:35.800 --> 1:13:38.000
<v Speaker 1>story her that and I ain't telling Oh, he freached

1:13:38.000 --> 1:13:39.680
<v Speaker 1>out on his mama. My mom had been cleaning us

1:13:39.680 --> 1:13:43.040
<v Speaker 1>over over thirty years, but she was on drugs, big time,

1:13:43.400 --> 1:13:46.200
<v Speaker 1>big time, and she wasn't there. And if I had

1:13:46.240 --> 1:13:48.439
<v Speaker 1>the asuity of having one person in my life to

1:13:48.520 --> 1:13:50.880
<v Speaker 1>talk to, imagine if that little eight year old boy

1:13:50.960 --> 1:13:54.080
<v Speaker 1>has somebody he could confide in and tell that listen

1:13:54.200 --> 1:13:56.840
<v Speaker 1>to him, didn't talk at him, didn't want to go

1:13:56.920 --> 1:13:58.360
<v Speaker 1>up to the school, but listen to him and try

1:13:58.439 --> 1:14:00.479
<v Speaker 1>to help him and show that they care. Maybe he

1:14:00.479 --> 1:14:03.000
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't have killed himself. How losst was this baby at

1:14:03.080 --> 1:14:05.640
<v Speaker 1>eight years old that he committed suicide. A lot of

1:14:05.720 --> 1:14:07.880
<v Speaker 1>these kids don't have nobody to rely on. They really

1:14:07.920 --> 1:14:10.680
<v Speaker 1>don't have nobody. You've talked about how unlike when you

1:14:10.760 --> 1:14:12.960
<v Speaker 1>and I were growing up, the bullying doesn't stop when

1:14:13.000 --> 1:14:15.439
<v Speaker 1>you leave that school. Oh no, because it's on the internet.

1:14:15.520 --> 1:14:17.720
<v Speaker 1>So you I come home and so when we get

1:14:17.760 --> 1:14:19.439
<v Speaker 1>off the page. You know how much hate I get

1:14:19.479 --> 1:14:21.640
<v Speaker 1>on my page? Oh I can't stay in flame my row,

1:14:21.720 --> 1:14:24.040
<v Speaker 1>So you get a hundred likes. Bitch, I don't give

1:14:24.080 --> 1:14:27.720
<v Speaker 1>a fuck, but I'm fifty. A child won't see that

1:14:27.960 --> 1:14:30.840
<v Speaker 1>because if they don't, if their self esteem is already low,

1:14:31.400 --> 1:14:33.840
<v Speaker 1>and then they you a hundred people saying agreeing with

1:14:33.920 --> 1:14:35.760
<v Speaker 1>somebody saying they don't like you. First of all, you

1:14:35.840 --> 1:14:38.679
<v Speaker 1>don't even know who these hundred people are. But nobody

1:14:38.720 --> 1:14:41.160
<v Speaker 1>has explained to an eight year old. Because that's there's

1:14:41.200 --> 1:14:43.719
<v Speaker 1>a self esteem is low, and then a hundred people

1:14:43.720 --> 1:14:46.160
<v Speaker 1>don't like me, I should kill myself. I'm not killing

1:14:46.240 --> 1:14:49.720
<v Speaker 1>myself and your mama and generations of your mama. She

1:14:50.000 --> 1:14:52.240
<v Speaker 1>But I think that also too goes back to the

1:14:52.320 --> 1:14:54.920
<v Speaker 1>parents and that we're talking about, because, for instance, social media,

1:14:54.960 --> 1:14:56.840
<v Speaker 1>like on Instagram, you'ren't even allowed to have an Instagram

1:14:56.840 --> 1:14:59.680
<v Speaker 1>account to you're fourteen years old, So it also goes

1:14:59.720 --> 1:15:01.360
<v Speaker 1>back to of the parenting. Now, mind you, I will

1:15:01.439 --> 1:15:03.639
<v Speaker 1>fully accept I'm not a parent. I don't have kids.

1:15:03.760 --> 1:15:06.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm only speaking on not not yet exactly, but I'm

1:15:07.000 --> 1:15:09.880
<v Speaker 1>only speaking on the experiences that I've had with my

1:15:10.040 --> 1:15:12.280
<v Speaker 1>mother because my mother, like she likes to say, she

1:15:12.400 --> 1:15:15.200
<v Speaker 1>was liberally strict, as much of an oxymoron that is.

1:15:15.360 --> 1:15:18.360
<v Speaker 1>But I understand now as I'm getting older, what that

1:15:18.600 --> 1:15:21.639
<v Speaker 1>means and how important. You know, some of those harsh

1:15:21.920 --> 1:15:24.080
<v Speaker 1>boundaries I may have thought she had laid out for me,

1:15:24.720 --> 1:15:27.439
<v Speaker 1>but they were needed because the flames point. You know,

1:15:27.560 --> 1:15:29.960
<v Speaker 1>when people say things, I don't get affected by it

1:15:30.080 --> 1:15:32.639
<v Speaker 1>as much. You know, I've had my share of fights

1:15:32.640 --> 1:15:35.040
<v Speaker 1>because people have pissed me off, and people have pissed

1:15:35.040 --> 1:15:36.920
<v Speaker 1>me off and guess what, they didn't do it twice.

1:15:37.520 --> 1:15:40.400
<v Speaker 1>So although you may not agree with the parenting or

1:15:40.439 --> 1:15:43.200
<v Speaker 1>the upbringing that you received. Sometimes it's necessary to give

1:15:43.280 --> 1:15:45.400
<v Speaker 1>that tough love and just to kind of be overbearing

1:15:45.880 --> 1:15:47.840
<v Speaker 1>because you know it pans out well in the end.

1:15:48.080 --> 1:15:49.640
<v Speaker 1>Before we leave you, guys, we've got to hear one

1:15:49.640 --> 1:15:53.960
<v Speaker 1>more thing we cannot ignore. Kean. Yes, yes, yes, I

1:15:54.040 --> 1:15:57.360
<v Speaker 1>was gonna say, speaking of her black dad's let's talk

1:15:57.360 --> 1:16:00.880
<v Speaker 1>about great black dads. So um. A couple of weeks

1:16:00.920 --> 1:16:04.200
<v Speaker 1>ago and actually Grammy Award women, a Grammy Grammy Award

1:16:04.280 --> 1:16:07.840
<v Speaker 1>winning artist Keion Harold was in a hotel in Soho,

1:16:07.960 --> 1:16:11.080
<v Speaker 1>New York, and uh with his fourteen year old son,

1:16:11.600 --> 1:16:15.439
<v Speaker 1>and this woman came in and literally tackled his son,

1:16:16.040 --> 1:16:21.240
<v Speaker 1>saying that he stole her iPhone. Um so the woman,

1:16:21.680 --> 1:16:24.920
<v Speaker 1>her name is Maya Miya. However, you want to say

1:16:24.960 --> 1:16:27.920
<v Speaker 1>a poncetto. She's twenty two years old. She she falsely

1:16:28.000 --> 1:16:31.439
<v Speaker 1>accused Keion Harold's son of sealing her iPhone at the

1:16:31.520 --> 1:16:36.040
<v Speaker 1>Arlow Hotel in Manhattan, Soho neighborhood. Um ponsetto who uh

1:16:36.880 --> 1:16:39.760
<v Speaker 1>uh activists have dubbed her Soho Karen, We'll get to

1:16:39.840 --> 1:16:43.479
<v Speaker 1>that too. Was arrested actually in February of last year

1:16:43.520 --> 1:16:46.160
<v Speaker 1>for public intoxication with her mother and got a d

1:16:46.439 --> 1:16:49.559
<v Speaker 1>y uh in May for driving drunk in l A County.

1:16:50.000 --> 1:16:52.719
<v Speaker 1>So Poncetto has been named in a civil case involving

1:16:52.760 --> 1:16:55.479
<v Speaker 1>an eviction for nonpayment, and my p D says that

1:16:55.520 --> 1:16:59.040
<v Speaker 1>they're planning to charge Maya Poncetto with multiple charges of assault,

1:16:59.520 --> 1:17:01.920
<v Speaker 1>and the New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has

1:17:01.920 --> 1:17:04.439
<v Speaker 1>blasted the running as plain and can we just say,

1:17:04.520 --> 1:17:05.920
<v Speaker 1>can we give a shot off to the fact that

1:17:05.960 --> 1:17:08.840
<v Speaker 1>they finally put somebody else's information out there for once,

1:17:08.880 --> 1:17:13.479
<v Speaker 1>because usually the minute a person of colors victimized, they're like, oh,

1:17:13.560 --> 1:17:16.360
<v Speaker 1>but you know, back when he was fourteen, he did

1:17:16.439 --> 1:17:18.400
<v Speaker 1>such and such. And I'm glad that they're like, oh,

1:17:18.479 --> 1:17:20.559
<v Speaker 1>by the way, the woman who attacked him, let's tell

1:17:20.560 --> 1:17:22.880
<v Speaker 1>you a little bit about her. She tried the wrong one,

1:17:23.120 --> 1:17:27.000
<v Speaker 1>is what happened. She tried the wrong one. No, no, no, no,

1:17:28.560 --> 1:17:32.960
<v Speaker 1>what's the best name? Miya Maya Pto? Please please let

1:17:33.360 --> 1:17:34.640
<v Speaker 1>let me be in there, and ran up on one

1:17:34.640 --> 1:17:38.080
<v Speaker 1>of my children. Hats off to everybody involved. I'm glad

1:17:38.120 --> 1:17:40.800
<v Speaker 1>that little boy is okay. Nobody was hurt, and I'm

1:17:40.800 --> 1:17:42.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna give you some for instances, because you know, if

1:17:42.880 --> 1:17:45.080
<v Speaker 1>the dad would have hit the mom, he's black and

1:17:45.200 --> 1:17:48.040
<v Speaker 1>she identified as his white because I don't think she

1:17:48.160 --> 1:17:52.519
<v Speaker 1>might have Italian right, Yeah, y'all black Italians, good hair,

1:17:53.040 --> 1:17:56.680
<v Speaker 1>black any who. I would have sucked this lady up.

1:17:56.760 --> 1:17:58.479
<v Speaker 1>Let me tell you I had a problem with the

1:17:58.560 --> 1:18:00.759
<v Speaker 1>dad video tape, and I said, this my love lounge

1:18:00.840 --> 1:18:03.920
<v Speaker 1>because you're standing back videotaping, but I understand the plight

1:18:04.040 --> 1:18:06.080
<v Speaker 1>that we are in in America. As a black man,

1:18:06.479 --> 1:18:07.920
<v Speaker 1>they would have turned it all the way around and

1:18:07.960 --> 1:18:10.200
<v Speaker 1>said he attacked this woman because she looks white to

1:18:10.320 --> 1:18:14.040
<v Speaker 1>the to the naked eye. But as a transgender dad

1:18:14.160 --> 1:18:16.479
<v Speaker 1>and parents, I would have beat that bitch ass right

1:18:16.520 --> 1:18:19.360
<v Speaker 1>there for touching my kid on the spot. And then

1:18:19.439 --> 1:18:21.280
<v Speaker 1>they said a man ain't supposed to for the woman.

1:18:21.520 --> 1:18:23.760
<v Speaker 1>I always keep a spare wig in my purse. I

1:18:23.800 --> 1:18:25.680
<v Speaker 1>would have put a wig on and said, this was

1:18:25.800 --> 1:18:28.720
<v Speaker 1>a woman whooping this woman for touching myself. What we're

1:18:28.760 --> 1:18:30.639
<v Speaker 1>not gonna do is put our hands on my children.

1:18:30.680 --> 1:18:33.599
<v Speaker 1>Because when they made that woman's phone, they made a thousand,

1:18:33.640 --> 1:18:36.000
<v Speaker 1>ten thousand more just like it. You walk in and

1:18:36.080 --> 1:18:38.640
<v Speaker 1>tackle my son, all of my kids are like me.

1:18:38.760 --> 1:18:40.920
<v Speaker 1>If I'm swinging, they all swinging. If I go to

1:18:41.040 --> 1:18:43.080
<v Speaker 1>the purse, they duck and run because they know some

1:18:43.160 --> 1:18:45.800
<v Speaker 1>ship coming out. Well, let's let's talk about that too.

1:18:45.880 --> 1:18:48.160
<v Speaker 1>So the phone ended up being returned because she was

1:18:48.200 --> 1:18:50.479
<v Speaker 1>a guest at the hotel, but three days prior, she

1:18:50.600 --> 1:18:52.720
<v Speaker 1>wasn't even a guest at the time. The phone was

1:18:52.800 --> 1:18:55.960
<v Speaker 1>returned from an uber driver that same day. And to

1:18:56.120 --> 1:18:58.720
<v Speaker 1>top it all off, the phone that she had was

1:18:59.080 --> 1:19:01.280
<v Speaker 1>a lesser version of what the sun had. It wasn't

1:19:01.280 --> 1:19:03.280
<v Speaker 1>even the same version of the same fun. Well, you know,

1:19:03.400 --> 1:19:05.880
<v Speaker 1>the bitch was confused. She got caught drunk driving and

1:19:06.000 --> 1:19:09.760
<v Speaker 1>the bitches publicly intoxicated. So the bitches an alcoholic called

1:19:09.800 --> 1:19:13.719
<v Speaker 1>triple A A triple A a r P somebody because

1:19:13.760 --> 1:19:16.479
<v Speaker 1>the bitches are drunk, and it's public knowledge that the

1:19:16.520 --> 1:19:18.719
<v Speaker 1>bitches a drawn, and y'all keep giving them a pass.

1:19:18.800 --> 1:19:21.280
<v Speaker 1>Ain't no pass. She drunk and she was out drunk

1:19:21.320 --> 1:19:24.800
<v Speaker 1>with a mama. Who does that? And and get and

1:19:24.920 --> 1:19:27.000
<v Speaker 1>get charged for it? Because I know mothers and daughters.

1:19:27.040 --> 1:19:29.439
<v Speaker 1>They go to the tavern often, drink, have a good time,

1:19:29.560 --> 1:19:32.080
<v Speaker 1>go home, anybody que ain't nobody started ship with no

1:19:32.240 --> 1:19:36.640
<v Speaker 1>police and her mama. It's the generational drunk, it's in

1:19:36.720 --> 1:19:41.320
<v Speaker 1>the longevity, it's in the know that I got a

1:19:41.400 --> 1:19:43.720
<v Speaker 1>problem with that. I don't like that they make excuses

1:19:43.800 --> 1:19:45.720
<v Speaker 1>for them. But we always made out to look like

1:19:45.800 --> 1:19:48.519
<v Speaker 1>the monsters. We're not the fucking monsters. And that boy

1:19:48.680 --> 1:19:51.080
<v Speaker 1>was fourteen years old. The dad had every right to

1:19:51.160 --> 1:19:53.240
<v Speaker 1>slap you know what the dad should have did. Y'all

1:19:53.400 --> 1:19:55.080
<v Speaker 1>see that video where the man slapped the man with

1:19:55.160 --> 1:19:58.479
<v Speaker 1>a d He slapped the twelve days of Christmas out

1:19:58.479 --> 1:20:01.840
<v Speaker 1>of his ass, got there. He kicked that candy baby.

1:20:01.880 --> 1:20:04.880
<v Speaker 1>He he kept calling him a nigga. He get my nigga, nigga, nigga,

1:20:04.880 --> 1:20:07.360
<v Speaker 1>that nigga, that nigga, that baby. That man kicked that can.

1:20:07.479 --> 1:20:10.639
<v Speaker 1>He took that canny. He slapped the twelve horses running

1:20:11.560 --> 1:20:18.760
<v Speaker 1>Christmas listing six dogs and slap five. Slapped the ship

1:20:18.840 --> 1:20:23.880
<v Speaker 1>out of me baby. He slapped the yellow moans, pink stars,

1:20:23.920 --> 1:20:26.599
<v Speaker 1>and was out there that that's what that lady need.

1:20:26.640 --> 1:20:28.560
<v Speaker 1>I'd have slapped her as her hands spent around like

1:20:28.600 --> 1:20:30.840
<v Speaker 1>Linda Bland xes, don't put your hands on my keys,

1:20:31.200 --> 1:20:33.720
<v Speaker 1>and and understand that in a different climate and in

1:20:33.800 --> 1:20:36.639
<v Speaker 1>a different time, he wouldn't have had every right because

1:20:36.680 --> 1:20:40.320
<v Speaker 1>you protect your children at all costs. She tackled this

1:20:40.479 --> 1:20:42.320
<v Speaker 1>man's son, she don't know if he had a knife

1:20:42.560 --> 1:20:44.800
<v Speaker 1>and was stabbing her baby or what have you. I

1:20:44.880 --> 1:20:47.840
<v Speaker 1>would my natural reaction would have been to punch the

1:20:47.880 --> 1:20:49.920
<v Speaker 1>hell out of her. Honestly, I wouldn't have thought about

1:20:49.920 --> 1:20:52.280
<v Speaker 1>what it would have been different too, because I'm just

1:20:52.320 --> 1:20:54.720
<v Speaker 1>saying if it was me and my mom, oh, my

1:20:54.800 --> 1:21:00.400
<v Speaker 1>mom would have weld on yeah, so and and I

1:21:00.439 --> 1:21:03.080
<v Speaker 1>think that's probably the difference too, because because this was

1:21:03.120 --> 1:21:05.720
<v Speaker 1>a black male and it was his son, you know

1:21:05.960 --> 1:21:08.160
<v Speaker 1>he I think he handled it the best way he

1:21:08.200 --> 1:21:11.360
<v Speaker 1>could have because I saw the security of video, and

1:21:11.400 --> 1:21:13.600
<v Speaker 1>then I saw the cell phone video. She literally like

1:21:13.880 --> 1:21:17.240
<v Speaker 1>bulldozed his son down, and Kean Harold ran up and

1:21:17.400 --> 1:21:19.599
<v Speaker 1>pulled her off of him and everything else, and then

1:21:19.640 --> 1:21:22.400
<v Speaker 1>she tried to do it again. So I'm glad they

1:21:22.479 --> 1:21:24.439
<v Speaker 1>had the security footage. I'm glad he did the cell

1:21:24.479 --> 1:21:27.000
<v Speaker 1>phone video because if he didn't have that evidence, the

1:21:27.120 --> 1:21:29.240
<v Speaker 1>narrative would have been so much different. It would have

1:21:29.240 --> 1:21:31.840
<v Speaker 1>been like, oh no, I was attacked and everything else.

1:21:32.080 --> 1:21:34.200
<v Speaker 1>It should have been a black mama named key Show

1:21:34.400 --> 1:21:42.880
<v Speaker 1>or like to baby Sophia. Woman woman, woman, bitch head

1:21:42.960 --> 1:21:46.720
<v Speaker 1>to ground for touching her baby. Very Beyonce and obsession.

1:21:46.840 --> 1:21:54.120
<v Speaker 1>You touched my child? How are you way in? We

1:21:54.240 --> 1:21:56.800
<v Speaker 1>want your opinion on anything and everything. I'm gonna tell

1:21:56.840 --> 1:22:00.320
<v Speaker 1>you this thing. I'm from DC City, the as you know.

1:22:01.200 --> 1:22:03.760
<v Speaker 1>This lady in my school made me do something. My

1:22:03.960 --> 1:22:06.400
<v Speaker 1>dad came to that school and I've never seen him

1:22:06.439 --> 1:22:09.280
<v Speaker 1>do something like this. He choked that lady and put

1:22:09.360 --> 1:22:11.360
<v Speaker 1>her up the wall and said, if you ever touched

1:22:11.400 --> 1:22:13.720
<v Speaker 1>my son again, this will be your last day on

1:22:13.800 --> 1:22:21.479
<v Speaker 1>this what's your daddy's number? That? I mean, he did

1:22:21.640 --> 1:22:24.000
<v Speaker 1>fight in Vietnam, so he's a little touchy and he's

1:22:24.040 --> 1:22:27.160
<v Speaker 1>a black panther. But my dad would have messed that

1:22:27.280 --> 1:22:30.160
<v Speaker 1>woman up, hands down. I've seen him do it. So

1:22:30.360 --> 1:22:33.000
<v Speaker 1>she was totally wrong. And it is inappropriate for me

1:22:33.080 --> 1:22:34.960
<v Speaker 1>and honestly to me for them to put a hand

1:22:35.000 --> 1:22:37.160
<v Speaker 1>on a woman. But sometimes a woman pushed the envelope.

1:22:37.200 --> 1:22:39.120
<v Speaker 1>And now that was not about her hitting him, that

1:22:39.240 --> 1:22:42.880
<v Speaker 1>was about him protecting his sea. Yeah, absolutely, your son. Yeah,

1:22:42.960 --> 1:22:45.240
<v Speaker 1>you gotta protect your kids. If if no one's gonna do,

1:22:45.280 --> 1:22:48.320
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be your well. If your children don't and

1:22:48.360 --> 1:22:50.679
<v Speaker 1>if your children don't feel safe with you as their parents,

1:22:50.720 --> 1:22:56.240
<v Speaker 1>they'll go find safety in the arms of the wrong person. Correct, absolutely, exactly, exactly, Well,

<v Speaker 1>Georgia and vote. We have to get control of the Senate.

1:24:03.960 --> 1:24:05.880
<v Speaker 1>And when I say control, we're not even getting control.

1:24:05.920 --> 1:24:08.400
<v Speaker 1>We're just getting the fair play of even even the

1:24:08.960 --> 1:24:12.120
<v Speaker 1>deciding vote will be uh broken by Kamala Harris, the

1:24:12.200 --> 1:24:14.880
<v Speaker 1>vice Vice presidential Canada, Kamala Harris, and we know she's

1:24:14.960 --> 1:24:17.560
<v Speaker 1>raning with Team Democrats. So let's do this so we

1:24:17.640 --> 1:24:20.120
<v Speaker 1>can have some kind of power because Ms McConnell is blocking.

1:24:20.120 --> 1:24:22.200
<v Speaker 1>And I know some of y'all hungry, some of y'all

1:24:22.240 --> 1:24:24.639
<v Speaker 1>can't pay your rent. They are dropping everything. And I'm

1:24:24.680 --> 1:24:27.360
<v Speaker 1>not saying hungry in vain or in comedy. I'm saying

1:24:27.600 --> 1:24:31.120
<v Speaker 1>for real. Because if you showed, they showed the hypocrisy

1:24:31.200 --> 1:24:34.000
<v Speaker 1>of what they could have been done for Americans last week.

1:24:34.560 --> 1:24:37.080
<v Speaker 1>Y'all waited all this time. Y'all gave the first stimulus

1:24:37.200 --> 1:24:40.400
<v Speaker 1>is in April, and y'all waited all the way to December,

1:24:40.479 --> 1:24:42.640
<v Speaker 1>the almost the end of the fucking year, and you

1:24:42.880 --> 1:24:45.960
<v Speaker 1>clicked one button and just released money to so many people.

1:24:46.040 --> 1:24:50.320
<v Speaker 1>You could have done this in May, June, July, August, September,

1:24:50.439 --> 1:24:53.720
<v Speaker 1>October November. You waited to almost the end of the

1:24:53.840 --> 1:24:57.360
<v Speaker 1>year to do six hundred disrespectful dollars to people who

1:24:57.479 --> 1:25:00.200
<v Speaker 1>have been hurting for months because of the back of

1:25:00.320 --> 1:25:03.920
<v Speaker 1>responsibility that you guys voted to put this clown in office.

1:25:04.200 --> 1:25:07.719
<v Speaker 1>Don't blame nobody but yourselves, but don't use us as ponds,

1:25:08.000 --> 1:25:09.840
<v Speaker 1>which is what y'all did. That was like when you

1:25:09.920 --> 1:25:11.160
<v Speaker 1>go to a welfire office and you get them so

1:25:11.240 --> 1:25:12.680
<v Speaker 1>secret and they hit one, but they can see what

1:25:12.760 --> 1:25:14.640
<v Speaker 1>states you have welfame because I had state welfaend like

1:25:14.680 --> 1:25:18.240
<v Speaker 1>seven states and I'm get off topic. Listen, ladies and gentlemen,

1:25:18.280 --> 1:25:21.120

1:25:21.240 --> 1:25:24.120
