Speaker 1: I want to remind you to go easy on yourself.
Speaker 1: You know, they say life is a journey, and the
Speaker 1: journey is the experience, and even so the experience becomes
Speaker 1: a journey. I got that from my Barbara Lewis T. Powell. Well,
Speaker 1: the reason why I had to say go easy on
Speaker 1: yourself because I feel like sometimes we put too much pressure,
Speaker 1: faulting ourselves for things that we did not know, not
Speaker 1: making room that we did the best that we knew
Speaker 1: how what to do with what we had, with the
Speaker 1: time frame and the engagement of what we had. But nevertheless,
Speaker 1: sometimes I just don't feel like it's enough. Oftentimes I
Speaker 1: feel because we always look into the left and the right,
Speaker 1: were trying to check what the next person is doing
Speaker 1: and how you could have done it better. But how
Speaker 1: about you stay in your own lane and run your
Speaker 1: own race. It makes me think of that track by
Speaker 1: Adele entitled easy on Me. She says, go easy on me, babe,
Speaker 1: I was still a child, didn't get we get the
Speaker 1: chance to feel the world around me. I had no
Speaker 1: time to choose what I chose to do, So go
Speaker 1: easy on me. Can I be vulnerable with you? I
Speaker 1: just thought of this now I'm not about to get
Speaker 1: emotions because we just got up in here. But I
Speaker 1: had to remind myself to go easy on myself when
Speaker 1: my sister and I had to make the decision to
Speaker 1: take my mom off of life support, because your whole
Speaker 1: idea is to hold on, and there wasn't a discussion
Speaker 1: of what to do if a certain circumstance or a
Speaker 1: situation were to happen, which leads me to say, we
Speaker 1: are in life insurance Awareness month. If you haven't talked
Speaker 1: to your loved ones, if you haven't made your own
Speaker 1: plans for yourself, please do that. But nevertheless, I wasn't
Speaker 1: a conversation that my sister and my mom, or my
Speaker 1: sister and I had with my mom in regards to
Speaker 1: any of her last wishes. So we had to make
Speaker 1: the choice and say, hey, we are going to allow
Speaker 1: your body to do what it has to do, and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest. I think there were some times
Speaker 1: that I reflected or I looked back and I was like, well,
Speaker 1: should we have held on longer? And I had to
Speaker 1: realize that at this point, I do think my mom
Speaker 1: was still conscious. I didn't see her blinking her eyes
Speaker 1: too much or she didn't open her eyes, rather but
Speaker 1: still breathing. All wait, Chuck, give me one second check.
Speaker 1: I'm gona call you right back. I didn't mean to
Speaker 1: hang up on you, Chuck, hold one second check, i'm'a
Speaker 1: call you right back. And what I realized is that
Speaker 1: at the time, the only way that I could gauge
Speaker 1: whether my mom was in pain was simply buy her
Speaker 1: blood pressure, because it would go up, and then when
Speaker 1: they would give her blood pain or pain medication, it
Speaker 1: would go down. And at this point she said morphine.
Speaker 1: And I remember when my mother and what she sounded
Speaker 1: like when one time we went to go to laundry,
Speaker 1: it was around November. I didn't even know I had
Speaker 1: only a couple of months left with her, and she
Speaker 1: was feeling some pain in her chest and I was like, okay,
Speaker 1: well I was going to go back home to New York.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, well, Ma, we should go to the hospital.
Speaker 1: And I remember being in that hospital room, and I
Speaker 1: don't know, maybe it was the second occasion, one of
Speaker 1: the occasions, because you know what, it all happened so fast,
Speaker 1: it's kind of like a PTSD. But I remember at
Speaker 1: one point she was calling out to her mother, and
Speaker 1: I can't tell you as my mama's child, her calling
Speaker 1: out to her mama, like, yo, my mama, you're supposed
Speaker 1: to be saving me and to wreck my brain. When
Speaker 1: it came time and my sister and I to say, hey,
Speaker 1: is it right or is it wrong to take her
Speaker 1: off of life support, we had to make room for ourselves.
Speaker 1: We had to give ourselves space. We had to give
Speaker 1: ourselves grace and realize that we did the best that
Speaker 1: we knew how with what we were doing. And it
Speaker 1: was at that point that we decided to allow her
Speaker 1: body to do that. And you have to realize that
Speaker 1: when you get yourself stuck in limbo and you're afraid
Speaker 1: to make a choice, it's like a state of paralysis.
Speaker 1: It's almost like you're on a hamster real driving yourself
Speaker 1: in crazy because you're expecting an answer to come. You're
Speaker 1: expecting something to change, but realize you're not moving, nor
Speaker 1: have you made a step of movement of decision for
Speaker 1: that change. So yet your mind is going in circles.
Speaker 1: And here's what I have to say too. They say
Speaker 1: life is the greatest teacher because first you take the
Speaker 1: test and then you learn the lesson. Just remember, as
Speaker 1: Adele continues on, I had good intentions in the highest hopes,
Speaker 1: but I know, oh right now, it probably doesn't even show.
Speaker 1: Go easy on me, Be easy on yourself. Make sure
Speaker 1: you make room that you are doing the best you
Speaker 1: know how with what you have. Right now, Give your
Speaker 1: self grace, give your self space. All right, All right,
Speaker 1: y'all know what time it is. It's that damn dawn

Speaker 1: in the studio Vitamin D and studio E. It's been
Speaker 1: a long truck. I mean, truly a testament that you
Speaker 1: give fail. If you don't quit, if you fall down
Speaker 1: seven times, get up eight And guess what, if you
Speaker 1: can look up, you can get up. Because your location
Speaker 1: is not your destination. I don't know what you calling
Speaker 1: out or what you doing, or what you're going after,
Speaker 1: but I know that some people are going through some
Speaker 1: hard things right now, and I wanna let you know
Speaker 1: that you're gonna have to put one foot in front
Speaker 1: of the other. You gonna have to breathe easy. You
Speaker 1: gonna have to forget about relying on whatever this vision
Speaker 1: that you got or whatever you see you got, and
Speaker 1: rely on the vision because the greater the vision, the
Speaker 1: greater the reward. And notice I didn't say necessarily what
Speaker 1: you see. I said the vision. Okay, Now, I know
Speaker 1: there's some more I want to say, but I'm gonna
Speaker 1: let it kind of unfold. I thought I was gonna
Speaker 1: have one moment, but I said, you know what, let
Speaker 1: me have this moment UH to necessarily unfold, and we
Speaker 1: will get to UH to talk about some more stuff.
Speaker 1: Let me chuck, just text me call me again, Chuck

Speaker 1: that there was a college student in Pennsylvania that had
Speaker 1: the N word carved on his chest? Hold on tight,
Speaker 1: Log on the Facebook. Okay, log on the Facebook. I'm
Speaker 1: broadcasting live right now. You got the number, keep it saving,
Speaker 1: and then call me back and let me know what
Speaker 1: you can think a couple of things. I appreciate you,
Speaker 1: all right, Okay, all right there right, Praizy Port, praizy Port, Oh.
Speaker 1: I want to go to the doctor today. I have
Speaker 1: to draw some blood. Praise report. Hello somebody, Chuck was
Speaker 1: my first call on my first live of an episode
Speaker 1: that's actually gonna go on the uh on the podcast later.
Speaker 1: I know, right, Okay, listen, we're wine. You probably just
Speaker 1: tuning in. I left off a bit I was talking
Speaker 1: about for the fires in California. Yes, although it's cooling,
Speaker 1: all things are still cooking up with the fires. I
Speaker 1: had all these jokes and all this other stuff I
Speaker 1: want to land in there, but I gotta tell you
Speaker 1: about something else that I didn't even know. Yeah, are
Speaker 1: you ready to hear this? Did you know that it's
Speaker 1: just not regular firefighters and uh first responders that put
Speaker 1: fires out. Yeah, I'm talking about the same people that
Speaker 1: be working around the clock. Okay, that's beending seventy two
Speaker 1: hours up at the at the fire house, risking their
Speaker 1: lives and so much more. That these aren't just only
Speaker 1: trained firefighters and responders. They are also prison firefighters helping
Speaker 1: them put out the fires as well. Did you know that?
Speaker 1: Did you know that? So what they have is they're
Speaker 1: called there are fire camp trained inmates, and they're in
Speaker 1: the middle of these raging fires that are out there.
Speaker 1: They're digging firebreaks, shoveling fire suppression fowder and DIR I mean,
Speaker 1: cutting down the trees the whole nine, hosing down roads,
Speaker 1: manning water trucks, assistant rescue cues, and basically helping out. However,
Speaker 1: they can now get this the prison fire fires. They're
Speaker 1: out there working all day and guess how much they
Speaker 1: getting paid. I want you to guess five dollars a
Speaker 1: day each again, all of five dollars a day that
Speaker 1: you can't even get an app and meal with that
Speaker 1: that ain't even a semi meal, that is a flat meal.
Speaker 1: I don't even know what that means. But I mean,
Speaker 1: if you really think about this here, that's what sixty
Speaker 1: three cents per hour. That's like working all day. And yeah,
Speaker 1: you might have a change to call somebody. But the
Speaker 1: question is is that these prison firefighters out there, or
Speaker 1: the statement rather, are working and they're risking their lives
Speaker 1: side by side with the LA Fire Department, their counterparts especially,
Speaker 1: And I'm sure you're wondering. You're like, well, Dawn, why
Speaker 1: would these grown men and women in prison inmates sign
Speaker 1: up for such a highly dangerous job. Well, I'm glad
Speaker 1: you asked. Well, the prison inmates actually do get some
Speaker 1: other incentives beyond, okay, the five dollars or less a day.
Speaker 1: So for one, they get real food. Listen, for somebody
Speaker 1: that loves to eat, I can appreciate some good food, okay,
Speaker 1: And they're not getting that unidentifiable bullstof Okay. Another reason, too,
Speaker 1: is that they're no longer in the actual physical prison itself. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're actually at stationed at fire camps, which means that
Speaker 1: they're safer and away from more violent inmates. Okay, Now,
Speaker 1: another huge reason that inmates sign up for the prison
Speaker 1: camps cruise, well, probably the biggest one of all. If
Speaker 1: they fight fires for the county and the States is
Speaker 1: a prisoner. In some cases, it shaves off the actual
Speaker 1: original prison sentence, and it also helps with your parole
Speaker 1: hearing to go more in your favor as well. I
Speaker 1: don't know about you, I wouldn't mind getting five dollars
Speaker 1: a day. If that's the case. I'm gonna get real
Speaker 1: food and I'm gonna be out of the actual prison itself,
Speaker 1: and it's gonna show up well for my parole officers.
Speaker 1: I'm not done yet. Now here's the hidden bonus and chew,
Speaker 1: this would get me to sign up. They gonna get
Speaker 1: a ton of exercise. Actually, I mean a lot of exercise.
Speaker 1: I mean, if you think about it, if you're going
Speaker 1: into this prison firefighters, is this miss Felicia, y'all? I'm
Speaker 1: answering I'm going rogue for y'all. This is that dog
Speaker 1: on Dawn like the break of day.
Speaker 2: Hello, how are you.
Speaker 1: Miss Bellisia? You called me?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw I missed it. Calling the phone sitting
Speaker 2: right here. It just didn't ring, and I picked it
Speaker 2: up and I saw that.
Speaker 4: I said, who is this?
Speaker 1: Oh you know what? When did you miss that call?
Speaker 1: Just now? I didn't call you just now, just now,
Speaker 1: just now. Oh, I wonder what that was about. I'm
Speaker 1: up here, I'm live on Facebook with the show. I

Speaker 2: No, I'm not heard.
Speaker 1: I mean what was it a uh hey.
Speaker 2: Or a Mexican kid?
Speaker 1: He was black? The N word? Well, I guess the
Speaker 1: N word could apply to more than uh one race
Speaker 1: or culture.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but maybe you know I thought, because I was
Speaker 5: my head was just spinning and I said, oh, you know,
Speaker 5: so who carved it?
Speaker 1: I'll tell you you're gonna have.
Speaker 2: To carve it on there or did somebody carve it

Speaker 2: just you on the air.
Speaker 5: I took a hot air balloon ride over in Temecula
Speaker 5: this morning. I got up at two o'clock this morning
Speaker 5: and drove to Temecula, California, which is about four hour
Speaker 5: and forty minutes away from.
Speaker 2: LA and got in this hot air balloon ride over
Speaker 2: the vineyards of all of the wineries over there. It
Speaker 2: was a beautiful ride.
Speaker 5: I get.
Speaker 1: That magical. This is what I real just uh, just
Speaker 1: all that blessed. Did you hear that?
Speaker 2: I heard something.
Speaker 1: Oh, oh that was nice. I wanted a hot air
Speaker 1: balloon once I was in Texas when I visited a
Speaker 1: friend down there. That was all some daredevil stuff, Miss Felicia,
Speaker 1: Oh that was all.
Speaker 2: This is my second time.
Speaker 5: I did it in Ethiopia and attified but Ethiopia, and
Speaker 5: it was beautiful. I have so much film footage of
Speaker 5: the Muslims praying at their mosque on a Sunday morning
Speaker 5: and all of the little kids running through the fields.
Speaker 5: And I had these aarppns that I would give the
Speaker 5: kids and I would toss a couple of them down
Speaker 5: there to them as they were running chasing the balloon
Speaker 5: in the field.
Speaker 1: For real, it was beautiful. It was beautiful, It was beautiful.
Speaker 2: I had such a good time.
Speaker 5: This was when I went to Ghana, but I went
Speaker 5: a week ahead of the group and stopped over in
Speaker 5: Ethiopia and stayed a week.
Speaker 2: I had a good time.
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, you know what you're saying, good time.
Speaker 1: It just makes me think about how always said, we're
Speaker 1: here for a good time, not a long time. So
Speaker 1: we gotta make down.
Speaker 2: Better, make account.
Speaker 5: I know I got twenty good years left and before
Speaker 5: I have to sit down, shut up, and be quiet.
Speaker 1: Who'll say today, shoot, did you start speaking a sign language?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: No, no, no no.
Speaker 5: Now I'm looking around me at the at my elders.
Speaker 5: That's twenty my mom's age and older. That's what's happening
Speaker 5: to them. They got to sit down and be quiet
Speaker 5: and move out the way. So I got twenty years

Speaker 2: They said, no, it's not too old. You're not too old.

Speaker 1: there it is. I had another Chuck called me. My
Speaker 1: other Chuck called me miss Mayan, you can call me.
Speaker 1: I wanted to dive into some stories and some news
Speaker 1: and information and the PSA. But I'm afraid if I
Speaker 1: start talking, somebody gonna calling. I want to know who caughling?
Speaker 1: So ms Miyan, are you still here? For anybody that
Speaker 1: does want to call, I'm about to put the number
Speaker 1: or up. Here's the number right here. The number is
Speaker 1: eight one eight four six one fifty four thirty two
Speaker 1: eight one, eight four six one fifty four to thirty two. Chia.
Speaker 1: I kept trying to talk about the dog on. I
Speaker 1: was talking about the firefighters and how they are combating fire,
Speaker 1: and oftentimes they're just not only firefighters or first responders.
Speaker 1: Sometimes they're prison inmates and they have a benefit because
Speaker 1: they gonna eat well, they're gonna be not be in
Speaker 1: the physical walls. And plus, not to mention, it carves
Speaker 1: off time because it says they're on good behavior. Like
Speaker 1: who doesn't want that? I'm just saying it's a win
Speaker 1: for a win, and that right there, that was miss Felicia,
Speaker 1: who had called me real quick. I wanted to go
Speaker 1: over there and talk about when Miss Felicia left off.
Speaker 1: I know, I got a question, how did y'all feel
Speaker 1: about that man hiding end them damned bushes up in Florida?
Speaker 1: Who was trying to what? Who got arrested for trying
Speaker 1: to assassinate Trump?
Speaker 2: Who?
Speaker 1: We ain't talk about that? Yeah, I mean, listen, here's
Speaker 1: my thing, y'all know what was it the week before last? Now,
Speaker 1: Trump was over at his golf course down in Florida, right,
Speaker 1: and there was this guy who was hanging around in
Speaker 1: the bushes for twelve hours with a semi automatic rifle
Speaker 1: that that has a scope on it, just out there waiting,
Speaker 1: like only four hundred yards from Trump. Now, there are
Speaker 1: some reports that said that this dude brought a sack
Speaker 1: lunch with him. I'm talking about a good old Ham
Speaker 1: sandwich and some potato chips, some lazed potato chips. And
Speaker 1: I guarantee you if he has some family from Detroit,
Speaker 1: he busted out a good figo with it. No, I'm
Speaker 1: just playing on that part. But what I want to
Speaker 1: know is for real, Pheral though, how was this guy
Speaker 1: staking out for twelve hours within that proximity of Trump? Like,
Speaker 1: was the security not doing their job? I mean, shouldn't
Speaker 1: they have walked and staked out the place to make
Speaker 1: sure that no one was there. I mean, like we
Speaker 1: all know that, you know, Trump likes American food in
Speaker 1: it and not even myself, I love a good burgerer fries.
Speaker 1: But I'm like, did one of the agents like just
Speaker 1: get on his phone and was like, let me go
Speaker 1: place some order, let me go pick up a order,
Speaker 1: or just play a video game. Because I don't understand
Speaker 1: how that happened and how that was possible to happen.
Speaker 1: And here's another thing that I was thinking about. When
Speaker 1: you think about somebody just waiting out there for twelve
Speaker 1: hours for Trump. Oh his name Ryan, Ryan Ralph Right,
Speaker 1: he can't be okay in the head cause I'm just saying,
Speaker 1: well qualified applicants that's going for a job, they ain't
Speaker 1: standing in there waiting for no twelve hours and still
Speaker 1: don't get the job done. I wasn't saying it like that,
Speaker 1: but I'm just saying, I don't know what kind of
Speaker 1: professional thought process. And then the second clue I'm wondering
Speaker 1: is that it's hot as heil in Florida. Florida is
Speaker 1: known for gatos gatos on the golf course. So I'm
Speaker 1: just wondering, how was the gata on the golf course?
Speaker 1: The man was hot hiding in the bushes and didn't
Speaker 1: get eaten by the gata. Now one can say the
Speaker 1: gata had to make an executive decision. Hey, latasha girl,
Speaker 1: they had to make an executive decision. Say hold up,
Speaker 1: wait a minute. Now, this man right here can get arrested,
Speaker 1: right and he goes to prison. But if I get caught,
Speaker 1: if I, as the gator, get caught, there are chances
Speaker 1: that I might end up being somebody's person or somebody's
Speaker 1: shoes in court. Hey, I've just said catch you while
Speaker 1: it's hot, baby. But seriously, though, where was the alligator?
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, like, peace, peace out. I don't know,
Speaker 1: but that's that. Also another thing that I want to say,
Speaker 1: we lost a great one within the past two weeks.
Speaker 1: Can we just do another shout out to rest in
Speaker 1: peace to the late great mister Tito Jackson, Yes, of
Speaker 1: the legendary Jackson five group, and just prayers out to
Speaker 1: the family and everybody doing it. You know, Tito was
Speaker 1: a fantastic musician. I mean truly an incredible perform I'm
Speaker 1: talking about going down the history books, and so we
Speaker 1: just want to send and I just want us wants
Speaker 1: to send our condolences to the families and friends around
Speaker 1: the world on losing a jackson, so very sad. And
Speaker 1: I wanted to kind of pivot because you heard what
Speaker 1: you heard what Janet had said about Kamla right our
Speaker 1: VP or soon to be president, Kamala Harris saying that
Speaker 1: she had heard that she didn't have any black in
Speaker 1: her and that she was full Indian and then hold up.
Speaker 1: Then a whoopee got on the view and actually came
Speaker 1: to the defense and said, wait a minute, it's a
Speaker 1: lot going on when people coming at your face asking
Speaker 1: you all these questions on top of the fact she
Speaker 1: just dealing with the loss of her her brother. So
Speaker 1: I don't know, do we give grace and space for
Speaker 1: that or do we feel some typeolack Do we give
Speaker 1: grace and space or you might have your other thoughts.
Speaker 1: We didn't even talk about that, honey. I've been up
Speaker 1: in there trying to get back into the studio. We
Speaker 1: ain't even talk about how we feel about Kamala being president.
Speaker 1: Are we doing enough coverage in the media are people
Speaker 1: sharing their views and opinions. I just want to know
Speaker 1: because if you got any thoughts, some comments and pressions,
Speaker 1: pull up and call me in the studio. Eight one

Speaker 1: if you want to email your advice letter, send it
Speaker 1: to Vitamin d at Dawn daispeaks dot com. Here is
Speaker 1: the first letter you all ready all right? Subjects My
Speaker 1: son has got to go. Dear Dawn, love your show,
Speaker 1: but I got a grown son. He just turned twenty,
Speaker 1: and that lazy boy will not get up and get
Speaker 1: himself a job and take care of himself. He just
Speaker 1: wants to be on the couch all day. Hold on,
Speaker 1: I almost look guard distracted. He just wants to be
Speaker 1: on the couch all the time watching Netflix, playing video
Speaker 1: games until the roaches fall asleep. And then that boy
Speaker 1: just eats everything in the refrigerator. That boy opens up
Speaker 1: the refrigerator door here so much that my refrigerator door
Speaker 1: handles has now has a permanent orange Cheeto fingerprints on them. Dawn, help,
Speaker 1: How do I get this twenty year old man off
Speaker 1: my couch and into the real world? Joba, what we
Speaker 1: say about this? You know, this is an interesting situation
Speaker 1: because we love our kids. Anybody that's close to us,
Speaker 1: you want to be able to help them out as
Speaker 1: much as possible. But what we cannot do. What we
Speaker 1: cannot do is coddle them. And I'm like, well, first
Speaker 1: and foremost, did you try pressure washing the boy? Go
Speaker 1: get you a high power water hole system, put a
Speaker 1: suit and tie on him, and ain't your son towards
Speaker 1: the near's employment office and get a job. Boo, get
Speaker 1: a job, and I'm telling you he'll be dry by
Speaker 1: the time the interview process and have a brand new income. No,
Speaker 1: I'm just okay, no, no, no, no, But for grow
Speaker 1: seriously seriously, as we said, you know, haven't grown children,
Speaker 1: you know, you just they don't want to leave the
Speaker 1: nest at times because Mama, Papa, auntie, uncle, grandma, grandpa.
Speaker 1: You know, they kind of want to be permittent, lazy,
Speaker 1: and they looking at the support. But the crazy part
Speaker 1: of this is that most of them see their parents
Speaker 1: or their guardians or whomever looks out over them working
Speaker 1: really hard and struggling just to keep stuff going, and
Speaker 1: that doesn't make them move at all. And you would
Speaker 1: even think that they would even try to pitch in
Speaker 1: and help, but that's not this case. And it's so
Speaker 1: sad because there are so many families right now, y'all.
Speaker 1: And that's why I want to make sure we bring
Speaker 1: with some laughter and things like that. Who are financially
Speaker 1: running interference for them. This has become a huge problem
Speaker 1: right now. And Maria, love baby cakes. I know it
Speaker 1: feels like it's just like you're going through this, but
Speaker 1: trust me, you you are not alone in this. There
Speaker 1: are so many people out there that are trying to
Speaker 1: get it together, not only for themselves but also for
Speaker 1: their family. Now your letter doesn't say it, but I'm
Speaker 1: assuming you talk to him about getting a job right now.
Speaker 1: If that is the case, where's my pining that now?
Speaker 1: If that is the case, this is where the real
Speaker 1: tough love comes in. You gotta perhaps give him a deadline,
Speaker 1: give him like thirty days to get his act together,
Speaker 1: so that one identify where your son wants to work,
Speaker 1: and then two have him some time so he can
Speaker 1: update the resume. Go ahead and send the resume. I'll
Speaker 1: do whatever he needs to do. And then also you
Speaker 1: maybe need to put him out. Put him out, and
Speaker 1: this sounds dramatic, and I want you to chime in
Speaker 1: the check and then maybe I'll open up the phones lines.
Speaker 1: Depending off, y'all got something to say. Do you change
Speaker 1: the locks? Some cases you might have to because it's
Speaker 1: all about the access. Right now, your son is just
Speaker 1: getting a little bit too comfortable having access to your
Speaker 1: home and your resources. Well, he doesn't have a need
Speaker 1: to go after them for themselves and for you, Maria,
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a tough one for you. You
Speaker 1: can't keep caving in on this kind of stuff, and
Speaker 1: you can't change your mind. Once you set an emotion,
Speaker 1: once you stick with something, you gotta stand there with
Speaker 1: ten toes down. And if he comes banging back on
Speaker 1: the door and crying and talking about Mama, I need food,
Speaker 1: I need shoes, I need clothes, I need a place
Speaker 1: to say, you need to yell at him and say
Speaker 1: play call of duty. I'm just joking. You better not
Speaker 1: open that door. You better not open that door. And
Speaker 1: if you have to, because God forbid. You know, some
Speaker 1: people you know, necessarily serving the armed forces don't make
Speaker 1: it back with those who have Thank you so much,
Speaker 1: but just tell them the army is a recruiting station
Speaker 1: in the mall. They can give you the best, the
Speaker 1: brightest and the best. So let me know what's going on.

Speaker 1: I need some more letters, so I want you to
Speaker 1: make sure that y'all go ahead and send me your
Speaker 1: letters at Vitamin d at dawn Dai speaks dot com.

Speaker 1: time to talk about the news. Oh, miss Felicia called
Speaker 1: and I say, I ain't even hello, Miss Felicia. Can
Speaker 1: you hear me? Hello?
Speaker 2: He ask me again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know what you.
Speaker 2: I got a comment to make you know that was
Speaker 2: right up my alley.
Speaker 5: I taught life skills education career planning in la USD
Speaker 5: for forty two years, and uh, the first thing that
Speaker 5: I thought up about in which I used to tell
Speaker 5: my students that what I would do if I was
Speaker 5: their parents, was for their graduation gift, they would get
Speaker 5: a set of luggage.
Speaker 1: Hmmm, because you're gonna have to hit the role jack, I.
Speaker 5: Would tell my students that if you want to plump
Speaker 5: your parents for five more years, go to college.
Speaker 3: Just go to college.
Speaker 2: They'll do whatever they want to do to help you
Speaker 2: make it through those next forty five years in college.
Speaker 6: So you know, the main thing on the serious side too,
Speaker 6: the young boy needs some guidance in the direction he.
Speaker 2: Needs to be put into a program.
Speaker 5: There are programs out there for eighteen to twenty four
Speaker 5: year olds to get job training. So he can go
Speaker 5: to job corps, he can go to you know, a
Speaker 5: program like Marcus's program, what does it Get.
Speaker 1: In the game? Get in the game? Also can check
Speaker 1: out Amari Amari got jlt Academy.
Speaker 6: Uh huh.
Speaker 5: There's a lot of programs that give him on the
Speaker 5: job training and programs, and he's got to figure out
Speaker 5: what it is that he likes to do. But the
Speaker 5: main thing is, don't allow him to just sit up
Speaker 5: there on that sofa eating cheetos and going in the
Speaker 5: refrigerator all day long.
Speaker 2: He got to get him to do something.
Speaker 1: Let me ask you, this is it going to the
Speaker 1: extreme to go ahead and change the locks on the door.
Speaker 1: Would you ever do something like that.
Speaker 2: If I had to?
Speaker 5: But is uh uh? If I had to do that
Speaker 5: if he got to that extreme, especially if he got
Speaker 5: his buddies over there nation up there playing video games
Speaker 5: all day.
Speaker 2: No, that ain't about to happen.
Speaker 1: Uh uh.
Speaker 2: What what?
Speaker 5: What?
Speaker 2: What did Merlina shall say every good? Uh uh uh
Speaker 2: in her song?
Speaker 5: I forgot to name of that song. But anyway, you
Speaker 5: got to get him and go to work, just like
Speaker 5: when I get leave the house. You got to get
Speaker 5: him leave the house too, at least go looking.
Speaker 1: Muse like you and working all day and I got
Speaker 1: us come in the house and look at you all
Speaker 1: comfortable just sitting on a couch.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, you know some of that is the parents
Speaker 5: fault because you know, what, what have you been doing
Speaker 5: with him for the last eighteen years?
Speaker 2: What does he know how to do?
Speaker 1: Hm? Hmm?
Speaker 2: Is is the thing?
Speaker 5: And if she has never had them in participating in
Speaker 5: any kind of activities, so that he can.
Speaker 2: Explore what it is that.
Speaker 5: He might want to do as he's growing up, at
Speaker 5: least know what his likes and dislikes are so he'll know, no,
Speaker 5: I don't like doing that, so I need to stay
Speaker 5: away from that, or I like this, so let me
Speaker 5: pursue something in that direction. But the main thing is
Speaker 5: all these junior colleges around here have programs.
Speaker 2: They're either they're even paying kids to go to school.
Speaker 5: Given the four hundred dollars stipends a month, their books
Speaker 5: and their fees depending on their income is free. Kids
Speaker 5: are not taking advantage of it. Certain kids are taking
Speaker 5: advantage of it. But a lot of kids that look
Speaker 5: like the back of my hand in the front of
Speaker 5: my hand, don't you know, they're not taking advantage of
Speaker 5: these opportunities. Because there's a whole lot of opportunities that's
Speaker 5: out there for these young people.
Speaker 1: That's right. But you know, it's that whole thing about
Speaker 1: bringing awareness and so I think, you know, having you
Speaker 1: call and just reminding people about the resources, even reminding
Speaker 1: people about their experiences that are to be had. I
Speaker 1: think that's the main thing that we need, because it's
Speaker 1: like one thing you can show somebody. You can tell
Speaker 1: somebody that's something there, but let's show them be a
Speaker 1: representation of what it looks like. Provide the information, provide
Speaker 1: the resources.
Speaker 5: You know, just like Taste the Soul is coming up
Speaker 5: on October nineteenth down Crenshaw Boulevard. There's going to be
Speaker 5: a lot of booths out there, with people telling you
Speaker 5: what they have to offer. Stop and talk to those
Speaker 5: people and listen to them. There's a lot of information
Speaker 5: out here, but we get the wrong information.
Speaker 1: Catch it. That's right in fact? You know, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: absolutely in fact.
Speaker 2: So my thing is is get that kid up, you
Speaker 2: know you sometimes you just can't tell them. You gotta
Speaker 2: take them up. Get in the car. She still got
Speaker 2: control of our household.
Speaker 5: Hopefully, hopefully, hopefully, get in the car, and you roll
Speaker 5: him on down to trade Tech.
Speaker 2: Find out what it takes to get him in there.
Speaker 2: Talk to a concert. These program they're paying for these
Speaker 2: kids tuition.
Speaker 5: And if you have young kids that's in high school,
Speaker 5: do you understand that you can have that kid can
Speaker 5: come out of high school with a two year college
Speaker 5: education as well as their high school diploma in their
Speaker 5: senior year.
Speaker 1: Talk about it.
Speaker 5: It's available to the LA Unified will paid for those
Speaker 5: kids books and fees to go to a junior college.
Speaker 2: I think it's free form.
Speaker 5: I've been out of the system for the last four years,
Speaker 5: but I think it's still.
Speaker 2: Free all right.
Speaker 1: If anybody knows comment on the bottom of the chest
Speaker 1: so that we can get this information. These resource out
Speaker 1: there for folks, let us know is it true? Is
Speaker 1: it free? If you got the website or the number,
Speaker 1: put it in the chat. Thank you so much, Miss
Speaker 1: Felicia for your comments.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, a hard thing.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what you gotta do. You gotta show
Speaker 1: them the way. And since we are talking about schooling
Speaker 1: and showing the way, this was actually brought to you
Speaker 1: by Miss Felicia. She said, share this if you know anybody.
Speaker 1: John Hopskins Medical School will be free for most thanks
Speaker 1: to a one billion dollars from Bill Bloomberg Philanthropyes, yes,
Speaker 1: John Hopskins Medical School will be free for most students
Speaker 1: starting this fall. Tuition will be completely free for medical
Speaker 1: students whose families earn less than three hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: I don't know about you growing up in the city
Speaker 1: of Detroit and even some people I know today. That
Speaker 1: would be a lot of people. And this is a
Speaker 1: gift that will be covering living expenses and fees for
Speaker 1: students from families earning up to one hundred and seventy
Speaker 1: five thousand dollars now. Previously, tuition was roughly about sixty
Speaker 1: five thousand a year for four years. This gift aims
Speaker 1: to improve declining life expectancy in the US by making
Speaker 1: medical and nursing more accessible to lower income students and
Speaker 1: diversifying the medical and public health fields. Michael Bloomberg, founder
Speaker 1: of Bloomberg Philanthropies and Bloomberg Lpie, says, as the US
Speaker 1: struggles to recover from a disturbing decline in life expectancy,
Speaker 1: our country faces series the shortage of doctors, nurses, and
Speaker 1: public health professionals, and yet the high cost of medical,
Speaker 1: nursing and graduate school two often bars students from enrolling.
Speaker 1: By reducing the financial barriers to these essential fields, we
Speaker 1: can provide students. We can free more Oh yes, these
Speaker 1: are We can free more students to pursue careers they're
Speaker 1: passionate about and enable them to serve more of the
Speaker 1: families and the communities that need them most. The people
Speaker 1: that look just like you. I don't know about you

Speaker 1: but this is what I will say, is this. The
Speaker 1: information is out there, the resources is out there. We
Speaker 1: got to come together and we got to serve as
Speaker 1: a bridge so people can cross right on over. Because

Speaker 1: Oh are you all ready to dive into this news? Chow?
Speaker 1: Can I get a yes? Can I get a man?
Speaker 1: I'm cutting up? Miss Felicia said a mere I can
Speaker 1: program on Facebook. She provided a Facebook page I just
Speaker 1: penned at the bottom for anyone that is looking for
Speaker 1: a job. Hey, that missus Jackson. I always want to
Speaker 1: say Latoshia, but it's Latasha right. It's just Latasha. Okay, y'all, Well,
Speaker 1: I guess we talked about under the news desk with y'all.
Speaker 1: I got a story, like I said before, a stingray
Speaker 1: got pregnant without a man. A California man was paying
Speaker 1: somebody's electric bill for the past fancy years. LA's County
Speaker 1: Department is formerly banning deputy gangs and clicks and uh
Speaker 1: that's about it. So let's dive into this news. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: this is quite some interesting news there. This a schrisstingray
Speaker 1: that actually got pregnant without a male companion, unfortunately, has died.
Speaker 1: The Aquarium and Shark Lab in North Carolina announced on
Speaker 1: Sunday that Charlotte, the stingray, oh my gosh, Charlotte, that's
Speaker 1: my sister's name. I just ripized that was the name,
Speaker 1: has died after getting a rare reproductive disease. The stingray
Speaker 1: that got pregnant despite not having shared a tank with
Speaker 1: the male of her species for many years. It got exterminated.
Speaker 1: The Aquarium and Shark Lab in Hindersville, this is over
Speaker 1: there in North Carolina said on Facebook late Sunday that
Speaker 1: the stingray Charlotte, died after getting a rare reproductive disease. However,
Speaker 1: they didn't go into further detail. The aquarium, which is
Speaker 1: in the Blue Ridge Mountains, announced back in February that
Speaker 1: Charlotte had gotten pregnant despite not having shared a tank
Speaker 1: with a male stingray and at least eight years, but
Speaker 1: it's said in late that she was suffering from a
Speaker 1: rare reproductive disease and announced in early June that she
Speaker 1: hadn't given birth and was no longer pregnant. The pregnancy
Speaker 1: was thought to be a result of a type of
Speaker 1: sexual a type of asexual reproduction called parthogenesis parthenogenesis parthenogenesis
Speaker 1: in which offspring developed from unfertilized eggs, meaning there's no
Speaker 1: genetic contribution by a male. The most rare phenomenon can
Speaker 1: incur in some insects, fish, amphibians, and birds, along with reptiles,
Speaker 1: but not in mammals at least it hasn't been documented,
Speaker 1: and examples have included California condors, komodo dragons, and yellow
Speaker 1: belly potter snakes. How's that from snows? You know, I
Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if we started hearing more stuff about this.
Speaker 1: Did you guys see that movie under Paris. Yes, chaw,
Speaker 1: it's something about Underpirents. But basically there is a triathlon
Speaker 1: happening in Paris, and I might be messing up. I
Speaker 1: can't even think what the name of the river of
Speaker 1: the water is behind me. The sharks start coming over
Speaker 1: to the warm water because you know, they stay in
Speaker 1: the fresh cold water, or I might be mixing it up. No,
Speaker 1: they stay in the salt water, but they start moving
Speaker 1: over to fresh water. Okay, Now, I don't know about you,
Speaker 1: but you know, like when you be watching the movies
Speaker 1: that stuff be happening and it comes true. It's almost
Speaker 1: like they be having some prem minisia.
Speaker 3: And the like.
Speaker 1: They know about it, but they try to lay it
Speaker 1: on us so we take it easy so that we
Speaker 1: don't go into complete shocks. So listen, you heard me
Speaker 1: say the story about this thing. Ray, I just told
Speaker 1: you about the movie Under Paris with the sharks were
Speaker 1: over there breeding themselves. And the thing that makes it
Speaker 1: so interesting is this In the film they talked about
Speaker 1: when it comes to adaptation or survival of the fittest,
Speaker 1: it isn't always or life cycle. Rather, it isn't always
Speaker 1: about the strongest in the fastest it's about those who
Speaker 1: are willing to adapt, and like in hindsight, when I
Speaker 1: think about that, that reminds me of us as a people,
Speaker 1: as a generation, as a community. We have to be
Speaker 1: willing to adapt to certain situations, in certain things, or
Speaker 1: you will not survive. You can't get stuck in doing
Speaker 1: the same thing day in and day out and expecting
Speaker 1: different results, expecting growth, expecting expansion. So, okay, I just
Speaker 1: went off. I'm done. Now, which one do we want
Speaker 1: to go to? Child? Let's talk about this California man
Speaker 1: that I told you about who finds out they've been
Speaker 1: paying their neighbor's electric bill for the past fifteen years. Child,
Speaker 1: I got this off a KTLA the other day. So
Speaker 1: the gentleman's name is Ken Wilson, and he has been
Speaker 1: trying to conserve electricity y'all in order to lower his
Speaker 1: his utility bill. But he just couldn't remember why recall
Speaker 1: why we're so high. So mister William With Wilson realizes
Speaker 1: that he had been inadvertently been paying for his neighbor's
Speaker 1: electricity bill for the last fifteen years. Now, Wilson lives
Speaker 1: over there in Vacaville, is a Vacaville, between Sacramento and
Speaker 1: San Francisco, and had been worried that his bill was
Speaker 1: higher than other peoples, which did not make any kind
Speaker 1: of sense to him because he often sought to save power.
Speaker 1: He told the local TV station KMAX. He says, I've
Speaker 1: been trying to conserve electricity to and lower my costs
Speaker 1: because it was getting really expensive. Wilson said. Eventually he
Speaker 1: complained to the local utility PG and E, which sent
Speaker 1: a worker out to investigate. And I quought, I thought
Speaker 1: there was a leak, or someone was stealing my electricity,
Speaker 1: or the meter was faulty, because something wasn't right now.
Speaker 1: PG and E instead discovered Wilson's meter was linked to
Speaker 1: unit number ninety one in his building, not his own apartment.
Speaker 1: None but ninety records suggested the situation have been going
Speaker 1: on since at least two thousand and nine child By,
Speaker 1: but Wilson told KMAX that's the news station that he
Speaker 1: was talking to. He moved into the apartment in two
Speaker 1: thousand and six and believes he may been paying the
Speaker 1: wrong bill from the beginning a total of eighteen years.
Speaker 1: Don't play with me, play with yourself, he says, I
Speaker 1: just hope this story is going to help others. I
Speaker 1: can't be the only one for now. However, Wilson is
Speaker 1: still paying his neighbor's bill. As PG and E said,
Speaker 1: it only can be changed in the next billing cycle.
Speaker 1: Oh damn, now lessen y'all knowing fundy trait tho or whatever.
Speaker 1: And I don't even know why I had the preface
Speaker 1: saying that. But is it just me? I don't know
Speaker 1: where you depending on where you're listening, because we got
Speaker 1: some folks in Atlanta, we got some folks in LA.
Speaker 1: We got some folks in DC, we got folks Arrowere.
Speaker 1: Y'all's about to tell me that you do not recall
Speaker 1: at a time I feel so so some type of
Speaker 1: way about sanctizs. Y'all never heard about people going ahead
Speaker 1: and take any people's electricity or not electricity, they cable
Speaker 1: like it was not uncommon. I ain't saying that we
Speaker 1: had to be my people. I'm just saying some people
Speaker 1: that I didn't know. Why was there a conversation or
Speaker 1: a discussion about the fact. Excuse me, I have to
Speaker 1: swallow how people used to steal other people's cable. You
Speaker 1: used to just tie the line. But that's why you
Speaker 1: gotta be paying attention to things. Have you ever got
Speaker 1: caught up? This is listen, don't nobody know where you
Speaker 1: live at. I don't even know your last name. You
Speaker 1: can come in here or call me as a random person.
Speaker 1: I'm just curious. Has anybody borrowed somebody's services, whether it's
Speaker 1: been electricity, whether there's been electricity a cable. Miss Mayan commented,
Speaker 1: She said, I remember that I was about to say,
Speaker 1: let's not act bray new to this, let's act true
Speaker 1: to this. If you are somebody you know has been
Speaker 1: should I say victim? Should I say victim? Or has
Speaker 1: been succumbed to either getting a discounted bill or being
Speaker 1: charged too much? Miss Felicia says, Dawn. How do the
Speaker 1: louse lights get X miss lights on their tents? They
Speaker 1: line it up? Did I say it right? Was that
Speaker 1: a joke or was that a real question? Oh my gosh. Okay,
Speaker 1: So that's that story. Okay, moving on, and y'all can
Speaker 1: definitely call in once I get done, because I think
Speaker 1: there are going to be some things that that we're
Speaker 1: going to need to talk about.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 1: This is a story that really got me excited to
Speaker 1: because it hit a little home and it had a
Speaker 1: little personal you know, after having Catalyst California on there,
Speaker 1: and it was the last guest we had on the FMDAL.
Speaker 1: I know, it's been more than a year and if
Speaker 1: I can't remember, I don't know how to heck you
Speaker 1: gonna remember it. But essentially, we had this woman come
Speaker 1: on and she talked about how her son basically lost
Speaker 1: her life, lost his life, which was some suspect suspect
Speaker 1: activity that could have been related to some gang violence
Speaker 1: within the prison system. I had no idea, called me
Speaker 1: Bubble the fool that there were so many individuals or
Speaker 1: so many families being affected where their loved ones were
Speaker 1: being sent back to their home and they didn't have
Speaker 1: their workings, there were bruises on their body, the records
Speaker 1: were hidden. You're preventing me from physically seeing them. What's
Speaker 1: really good? You are ready to talk about it?
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 1: LA County Sheriff's Department formally bans formally bans Deputy Gangs
Speaker 1: or CLIQUS Los Angeles is seeking to address an issue
Speaker 1: that has long dodged the agency. Los Angeles County Sheriff
Speaker 1: Robert Luna announced a department policy Wednesday, formerly banning Now
Speaker 1: this was last week Wednesday, formerly banning so called deputy
Speaker 1: gangs and cliques. Okay. Sheriff Luna says, our employees are
Speaker 1: dedicated professionals who maintain the highest standards of integrity and service.
Speaker 1: While I recognize the issue of law enforcements gangs only
Speaker 1: involved a small fraction of the department, I also acknowledge
Speaker 1: that this long standing issue must be addressed appropriately to
Speaker 1: maintain the community's trust in us. The tireless efforts of
Speaker 1: our team to move the culture forward, strengthen our reputation,
Speaker 1: and eliminate any lingering shadows of mistrust are crucial to
Speaker 1: our public safety mission. Allegations of often violent collections of
Speaker 1: deputy organizations within the department have led to various lawsuits
Speaker 1: over the years, some by department members claiming to have
Speaker 1: been discriminated against or even physically assaulted for failing to
Speaker 1: join or submit to internal gang influence. Now, department critics
Speaker 1: have alleged that such gangs have led to increased violence
Speaker 1: by deputies against black and Hispanic residents. Now Former Sheriff
Speaker 1: Alex Villanueva long downplaying the existence or the influence of
Speaker 1: such organizations. Although he conceded during a January meeting of
Speaker 1: the Shriff Civilian Oversight Commission that some quote unquote subgroups
Speaker 1: did operate like that within the agency. Don't play with me,
Speaker 1: play with yourself, he denied they were violent gang like organizations,
Speaker 1: liking them instead to softball teams. What you mean. But
Speaker 1: critics have alleged long standing gangs do exist within the agency,
Speaker 1: with members sporting tattoos announcing their allegiance to groups with
Speaker 1: names such as Cavemen, Executioners, or even Benditos. A report
Speaker 1: released by the Civilian Oversight Commission last year suggested that
Speaker 1: at least I have a dozen deputy gangs or clicks
Speaker 1: were active in the department, with their activities leading to
Speaker 1: more than fifty five million dollars in legal damages against
Speaker 1: the agency. Now, one would think, because we talking about money,
Speaker 1: we know that if you want to hit somebody where
Speaker 1: it hurts, you hit them in their pocket. But wait,
Speaker 1: let me know if you can top this, who's money?
Speaker 1: Do you think they user my yours?
Speaker 5: So?
Speaker 1: Who really looking silly? So that's why when we talk
Speaker 1: about this whole notion of defunding the police, let's really
Speaker 1: really outlie what we are really meaning and what we
Speaker 1: are really talking about. Perhaps we need to allocate our
Speaker 1: funds differently, because it's not in the situation of these
Speaker 1: individuals want to be beaten, want to go to prison,
Speaker 1: want to miss out from their family. A lot of
Speaker 1: these people are trying to figure out how to survive.
Speaker 1: And when you're telling me, if I'm won't do something
Speaker 1: that might be sort of illegal, but I might have
Speaker 1: some food on the table, I might can pay the
Speaker 1: medical bill, I might can see my family. Sometimes people
Speaker 1: are doing the things that our quote unquote may not
Speaker 1: be the best decision, may not be the most appropriate decision,
Speaker 1: but it's the decision that they're trying to be survived.
Speaker 1: But if we start putting that money into our communities,
Speaker 1: into our resources, into these training programs, making sure we
Speaker 1: put advertising for job corps, we can be changing this
Speaker 1: whole conversation because we don't have to be worried about
Speaker 1: bearing in somebody else's baby, or somebody else's baby coming
Speaker 1: home and they don't have all their organs in their body,
Speaker 1: or somebody being refused to be a public viewing of
Speaker 1: their loved one because there was some suspect activity. And
Speaker 1: then you gonna sit here and did not in my face.
Speaker 1: And some of this stuff is not even happening when
Speaker 1: you got individuals that got the tattoos only all. So
Speaker 1: now what you planning me like? I'm done.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: The policy also requires that department members to take part
Speaker 1: in any investigations and allege prohibited activities. It also notes
Speaker 1: that criminal allegations may be referred to prosecutors, and allegations
Speaker 1: of participation with any band internal gangs will be referred
Speaker 1: to the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training, which
Speaker 1: could lead to suspension or revocation of a deputy's certification.
Speaker 1: Department officials said the policy was developing in consultation with
Speaker 1: various oversight by and through negotiations with labor organizations. How
Speaker 1: about you talk to the family and the people that's
Speaker 1: been affected. Why don't you talk about that so that
Speaker 1: you can really understand, because you not the one that's
Speaker 1: sitting at your house, Okay, receiving that phone call about
Speaker 1: your loved one. Now, Grant, it ain't nobody perfect. We
Speaker 1: all make our decisions, but I be damned, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: take my life or you gonna take my life and
Speaker 1: then try to cover it up. We can't do that.
Speaker 1: But see that's why they say when you know better,
Speaker 1: you can do better. So therefore we can be better
Speaker 1: because once we understand the money that we are paying
Speaker 1: our hard work and money. So I'm pretty much gonna
Speaker 1: pay you to beat my ass. Do that sound backwards
Speaker 1: to you, y'all get ready to have that conversation on us.
Speaker 1: Don't call your shit because I got another story. Now
Speaker 1: you heard me tease, And I had to say this
Speaker 1: one for last, because child, this is when I was
Speaker 1: getting ready to have doctor's appointment earlier. But I was
Speaker 1: just scrolling through the news. I was asking I forgot
Speaker 1: to tell I was on I was talking to Toyo
Speaker 1: on the move, and I ran across this story about
Speaker 1: this college student over in Pennsylvania. Child, Are you ready
Speaker 1: for this? They had the N word carved on his chest?
Speaker 1: You hurt? Yes? Yes, students exited Gettysburg College after a
Speaker 1: racial slur is carved on a teammate. Now, I got
Speaker 1: a couple ways I want to say this again. I
Speaker 1: gotta say this again. I got a couple ways in
Speaker 1: which we're gonna talk about. And now I'm reading this
Speaker 1: from the computers. So if you're making a comment and
Speaker 1: I miss you. I'm gonna come back to it, all right,
Speaker 1: you're ready, Let me drink some water because child hmm oh,
Speaker 1: here we go. A student at Gettysburg College in southern
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania has left the school after a campus investigation found
Speaker 1: the student responsible for etching hear me when I say this,
Speaker 1: etching a racial slow lure across another student's chess during
Speaker 1: a social gathering earlier this month. Yead Gettysburg's college told
Speaker 1: NPR on Monday the student was no longer enrolled, but
Speaker 1: declined to comment on whether the student was expelled or
Speaker 1: decided to leave, citing student privacy laws. The names of
Speaker 1: the students involved have also not made public student privacy interesting.
Speaker 1: Over that past few weeks, the small liberal arts college
Speaker 1: of what some of twenty two hundred students made national
Speaker 1: headlines after the school announced it was investigating a report
Speaker 1: of a hate crime. Now this is according to the
Speaker 1: school's website, that sixty two percent of the students are white,
Speaker 1: while twenty one percent are none international students of color,
Speaker 1: none international students of color. The incident occurred on September sixth,
Speaker 1: during an informal gathering among the men's swim team at
Speaker 1: an on campus residence. According to the statements made by
Speaker 1: the college and the victim's family, there, a student used
Speaker 1: a box cutter to write the in word across their
Speaker 1: teammate's chest. The victim's family wrote in a statement published
Speaker 1: on Friday in the campus newspaper, this is the Gettysburgian.
Speaker 1: The family added that their son was the only person
Speaker 1: of color at the gathering. Now this is the according
Speaker 1: to the newspaper, what the family had to say, the
Speaker 1: reprehensible act was committed by a fellow student athlete, someone
Speaker 1: he considered to be his friend, someone whom he trusted.
Speaker 1: The incident was later reported by an upperclassman students from
Speaker 1: the swim team, and they were applauded by Gettysburg College
Speaker 1: or college president Bob Leano. In an email to the
Speaker 1: campus community about the situation on Thursday, Eleano added that
Speaker 1: two students have since been susp bend it from the
Speaker 1: swim team. Now just this past Monday, yesterday, Jamie Yates,
Speaker 1: the college's chief communications and marketing officer, told NPR the
Speaker 1: investigation was close to being finished, and once it's closed,
Speaker 1: the school plans to work with the family about how
Speaker 1: most constructively to move forward? What does that mean and
Speaker 1: what does that look like? Now? Here's another statement that
Speaker 1: was made by the victim's family to the paper. They said,
Speaker 1: according to their son, he felt at home on this campus.
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, I'm up here. I'm trying
Speaker 1: to patiently read this story, and then I'm also trying
Speaker 1: to refrain from from commenting. What do y'all think about
Speaker 1: this story so far? Is this crazy? Or what is
Speaker 1: this insane?
Speaker 5: Or what?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 1: The thing that makes it interesting that for this young
Speaker 1: man who is a person of none international color, for
Speaker 1: you to be attending a school that is sixty two
Speaker 1: percent white and twenty one percent none international persons of color,
Speaker 1: what did home feel like?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 1: I do think it's important to diversify yourself. I myself
Speaker 1: have always went to blended schools, multi racial schools. I
Speaker 1: think that is definitely why I'm able to weave in
Speaker 1: and out no matter the crowd. But what is to
Speaker 1: be said when you can look at a school that
Speaker 1: is more than fifty percent of not what you are
Speaker 1: as far as identity, aesthetics, cultural, racially, and to say
Speaker 1: you were at home, you felt at home? I have
Speaker 1: to question or I will have to wonder what kind
Speaker 1: of upbringing is this? And you know, to be completely
Speaker 1: honest with you, I have been in situations where a
Speaker 1: one end I said, well, do we fought the institution
Speaker 1: for this? But they had no control over what this
Speaker 1: student did. It just happened. But now do you feel
Speaker 1: as though they'd taken the right repercussions? They did, they
Speaker 1: act accordingly. Is it right to conceal the student's identity?
Speaker 1: Perhaps because well, is it because they're over eighteen? I
Speaker 1: want you to call me in the studio. Let me
Speaker 1: know what you think of either stories. The one story
Speaker 1: stating how the Los Angeles Sheriff Department has now banned
Speaker 1: or done away with gangs or clicks, and then also
Speaker 1: this swimmer from the swim team in Pennsylvania who had
Speaker 1: the inWORD carved on his chest using a box cutter.
Speaker 1: What are you your thoughts on this? Or perhaps you
Speaker 1: might want to call in about the gentleman that was
Speaker 1: paying the dang On electricity bill for the past fifteen years.
Speaker 1: I'm here at taking calls. Yes, now call me eight one,
Speaker 1: eight four six one fifty four thirty two. Let's get
Speaker 1: a conversation going. Let me know if there's something you
Speaker 1: heard or something you want to talk about. Miss Mayan
Speaker 1: was like, whoa, that's too much. Miss Felicia said, why what?
Speaker 1: Oh my god? Is right, it's right, you got it.
Speaker 1: Listen who you telling? So what you think? What do
Speaker 1: you think about all this, the stories that's going on,
Speaker 1: the resources, the information pull up on me. Call me
Speaker 1: in the studio right now. Eight one eight four six
Speaker 1: one fifty four thirty two. That's eight one eight four
Speaker 1: six one fifty four thirty two. You know, I was
Speaker 1: supposed to call Ms Toya because I forgot to text
Speaker 1: her or remind her I was coming on. Hm m
Speaker 1: m m. It's really disgusting. That's why I think, you know,
Speaker 1: it's just important that we have to be more well
Speaker 1: informed about our situations and our environments, especially, you know,
Speaker 1: even when you're thinking about what's happening up in our
Speaker 1: person system, our person system. Yes, we understand that individuals
Speaker 1: are in there that probably were not all always on
Speaker 1: the right side of the tracks. But you telling me
Speaker 1: where you're supposed to get right is when you actually
Speaker 1: gonna get dead. That don't make sense, do it? Child?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 1: Child? Bye? So does anybody want to call me in
Speaker 1: the studio? Right now. Uh. The number is eight one
Speaker 1: eight four six one fifty four thirty two eight one
Speaker 1: eight four six one five four throw thirty two call
Speaker 1: me and let me know what to do. And that
Speaker 1: reminds me. I wonder if I call a Toyo on
Speaker 1: the Move when she answered, because I want her to
Speaker 1: announce she's doing a great thing for the community in
Speaker 1: regards to giving out some toys. So perhaps I'll put
Speaker 1: a call into her really quickly.
Speaker 6: I know I call.
Speaker 1: I thought today, Oh wow, my phone does not even
Speaker 1: have all the calls all right, mm hmmm hm, let's
