If 245 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 2: you wanted to be a team that like recognizes David 246 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 2: Borie and they're like monthly pamphlet. 247 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: Then you get them some jerseys and some Gatorades or whatever. 248 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 2: Right, But like, if you really want them to be like, yo, 249 00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 2: our king is David Bori, you gotta get them cleats. 250 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: Okay, Damn, that's the problem.

As a child, I remember my mom telling 352 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 2: me that when they first came to America, the family 353 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 2: was shown a video by government officials that was full 354 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,159 Speaker 2: of stereotypes about black people in the US, and we 355 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 2: warned them WHOA, not to associate with African Americans. 356 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: Holy shit, Yo, this is truly crazy.

You have to have that. 493 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: And it's economic a point, but it's primarily rachel you 494 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 1: know what I mean. 495 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, ten of y'all have to starve for my belly 496 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 2: to be full, and it's easier to break it down 497 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 2: based off of color than it is to like go 498 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 2: person to person and be like, what's your personality? 499 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: Like? Right, that's a much more difficult that's a much 500 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: more difficult. No, you're a good guy. He's one of 501 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 1: the good ones, right, Like now they're all dirty rotten 502 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 1: all right, you're taking liberties here. The whole lie knows this, 503 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: you know. But so I just reading this, how do 504 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: you feel about this? Because it truly, however you feel 505 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: about it, you have to acknowledge that it is a 506 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: complicated relationship. And I think both sides seem, at least 507 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: I can say in my life from what I've seen, 508 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: both sides seem to want to take the good from 509 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: each other. They're and not the bad. Does that make sense? 510 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 2: Oh that like we both would love we would love 511 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 2: to borrow Africa as the mother land and. 512 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: Motherland and like that guy and stuff and like oh 513 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 1: yeah we were kings and we used to we don't 514 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: want to. 515 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:26,480 Speaker 2: Deal with like your actual like politics and personhoods and. 516 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: And yeah, and I mean and vice versa right with 517 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: like with like with like from the African side. You know, 518 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 1: Africans love rap music, you know what I mean? They 519 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 1: love the fashion, they want to like all these all 520 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 1: these positive things that everybody takes from Black Americans. I 521 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 1: think that there is a level of wanting that without 522 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 1: maybe the direct problems, And I think that is that's 523 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 1: an odd It's an odd way to look at it, 524 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: because if you look, it feels like we're both in bondage, 525 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So to not meet in 526 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 1: the middle on that is very strange. We're both being like, 527 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 1: I'm not like I'm not like that. I'm not I'm 528 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: not like that one, and we're both we would benefit 529 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 1: from being like, let's let's mix this up a little bit. 530 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: I mean I would, because the the similarities are shocking. 531 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: I don't know though, because you felt you said you 532 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 1: didn't feel like that when you went to Africa. Uh No, 533 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 1: I felt. 534 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 2: I think South Africa is a slightly more complicated. 535 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 1: And maybe it's not. 536 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 2: Maybe I'm being ignorant when I say this, but it 537 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 2: felt more complicated because it is pitched so much as 538 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 2: this place of transformation that like black the black community, 539 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 2: the colored community out there sort of like found their 540 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 2: equality past apartheid, and then you get there and you realize, oh, 541 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 2: apartheid's still happening. They just don't have laws for it anymore. Right, 542 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 2: every single server is a black person and every single 543 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 2: person being served is a white person or a black 544 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 2: person on you know, doing some tourism shit, and it's like, oh, 545 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 2: there's no. 546 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 1: That does feel that would that would I never really 547 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 1: thought about that way, but now I think about it. 548 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 1: That would really change the way I experienced Africa. Bro. 549 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 2: We asked, because we were really trying to experience South Africa, 550 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Like we're in Cape Town, 551 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 2: we like hit up a few of the people in 552 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 2: the hotel, like staff, and like in various places we 553 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 2: knew behind the desk they're going to give us some 554 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 2: generic whatever. But like we pulled like a fucking like 555 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:49,479 Speaker 2: vallet dude aside, and we're like, bro, where can we 556 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 2: go eat where we can really try all food, where 557 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 2: we can really like have the full experience. It was like, Man, 558 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 2: go to Mama Africa. Mama Africa. That's where you gotta be, 559 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 2: Mama Africa. You're gonna love that. 560 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: Please go there. 561 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 2: That's where everybody needs to go if they want to 562 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 2: try and experience our shit. 563 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 1: We went there. 564 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 2: I promise you I am not exaggerating when I tell 565 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 2: you it is the Rainforest Cafe in Africa? 566 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? Like it is African 567 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: rainforest Cafe. I think you think that pitch sounds a 568 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 1: lot worse than it does. 569 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 2: I'm saying that, like I begged you for authenticity, and 570 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 2: this is where you sent me because you know, well, 571 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 2: it's not even that he doesn't believe me, it's that, 572 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 2: you know, if you really if I wanted the experience, 573 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 2: I would have to go to a shanty like i 574 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 2: would have to be amongst the people where I'm not 575 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 2: even safe to be so because this is they're in 576 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 2: townships and shit, like I would have to travel outside 577 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 2: of where people who look like me even exist, and 578 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 2: then I'm in danger. So they're like, nah, man, just 579 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 2: go to mym Africa. That's if that's what you want, 580 00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 2: but like we don't have. It's not available to you 581 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 2: because that's how far the fucking gap is between wealth 582 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 2: and any version of existence out there. 583 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,880 Speaker 1: Is that's fair, that's fair. That yeah, that would not 584 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: because I've never been to South ever, it seems like 585 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 1: that would be difficult. But then I also think about 586 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 1: even my experience with Africa, and so much of it 587 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 1: is familial that it's like I don't know if I 588 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 1: would like go to sier Leone with you and be like, 589 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: let's go to Kalbat town, Like I don't know if 590 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 1: that would even you can come to the village, but 591 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: that's like way out, you know what I mean. But 592 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 1: like so that that, I guess that does informant do 593 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 1: you did you did you have any sense any time 594 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,359 Speaker 1: during the trip did you feel any sense of like 595 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 1: camaraderie or like or was it because doesn't you have 596 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: family in Ghana too? Right? Yeah, but my mom's not 597 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,759 Speaker 1: from there. She just as an expat who no but 598 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 1: like she but she seems to have been able. Has 599 00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 1: she found like community there and to integrate someone? 600 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean my mom lives pretty like, uh, sub rural, 601 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like it ain't fully rural, 602 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 2: but it's it's close to. 603 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 1: It kind of vibes. She's not like an Oka or anything. 604 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:16,879 Speaker 2: She's like I think she said she's like an hour 605 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 2: outside of a cry, you know what I mean. Like, 606 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 2: so it's it's it's she's got to travel to get 607 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:25,920 Speaker 2: there or like a half hour to an hour outside 608 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 2: of it. So it's like maybe an equivalent of a 609 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 2: suburban but it's less developed than what we understand suburbs 610 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:39,320 Speaker 2: to be, right, And so I think, nah, like she's 611 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 2: definitely built a lot of community there, but I do 612 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 2: think even in talking to her, there still remains a 613 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 2: type of otherness that she holds in her head about 614 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 2: like what what are the fundamental differences between an African 615 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:59,439 Speaker 2: person and an African American person? And I don't She's 616 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 2: never gonna but she's also like, yeah. 617 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 1: But I'm not like them. That's interesting. I mean, you 618 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:11,440 Speaker 1: know that Americanness is huge, right, That is a huge 619 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 1: hump to overcome, like black, white whatever. If you're American, 620 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 1: you're American, and that is like that, that is like 621 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,160 Speaker 1: a very different thing than everywhere else as far as 622 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:26,759 Speaker 1: I've seen. Yeah, And I think. 623 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:31,359 Speaker 2: Maybe if I'm if I'm going to be empathetic in 624 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:34,759 Speaker 2: this part of the conversation, it's it's happening now, and. 625 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 1: It looks like you're having a difficult time with I 626 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 1: don't care for it, but I I think maybe there's a. 627 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 2: Level of empathy I can hold for what has always 628 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 2: felt like an attack on in my opinion, from African people, 629 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 2: and that they're sort of like not want not to 630 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 2: be like us. But maybe some of that is the 631 00:36:54,960 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 2: projection that we're always putting out of, Like the americanness, 632 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 2: this sort of like we are our own thing and 633 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,239 Speaker 2: nobody else is a part of it. It's hard to 634 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:11,360 Speaker 2: enter a space and not feel othered in that way 635 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 2: if that's what people are putting out. So I could 636 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 2: respect them being like, well, shit, I don't want you to, 637 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 2: you know, fire back at me because I try to 638 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:19,959 Speaker 2: mix in too much. 639 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:23,280 Speaker 1: Fuck y'all our own thing. And it is odd because 640 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 1: you think about like just like even within America, the 641 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 1: communities a lot of times are very set like some 642 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,799 Speaker 1: people integrate, some people don't like like I have. There's 643 00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: a barber in my shop who's from the DRC, right, 644 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 1: but he's like, fully, you would you wouldn't. I mean, 645 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 1: I guess you could tell by looking at him, but 646 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 1: his mannerism is not that you wouldn't anything about him. 647 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:47,879 Speaker 2: You wouldn't think that, right, But then hey, that's young 648 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:48,800 Speaker 2: man from the Congo. 649 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:53,919 Speaker 1: That's hilarious.

He we got me. 725 00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:37,960 Speaker 1: We're talking about Africans Americans. Africans Americans. I I just 726 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 1: because I also think about this sometimes I feel like 727 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:47,560 Speaker 1: this is sounding weird, not weird. I feel like African 728 00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 1: Americans get a really huge chunk of the conversation of 729 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 1: what is the black diaspora? Does that make sense? Oh, 730 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 1: like even inter nationally, the Americans take up a lot 731 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:05,759 Speaker 1: of space, not in a good or a bad way, 732 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,399 Speaker 1: but just like that does kind of feel because it's 733 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 1: like because Africans, at least in my experience, they keep 734 00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 1: the blackness the same way that American black people do. 735 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 1: Like very much like people in my family think you're 736 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 1: not black if you weren't born in Africa. Like straight up, yeah, 737 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 1: I think to ya, they even want to leave, but 738 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:32,840 Speaker 1: they're like, no, I'm an African. I can't deny my 739 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 1: lineage by like leaving this property. No, they would leave. 740 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 1: That's the thing about Africa. People even fucked up over there. 741 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:42,800 Speaker 1: Everybody would leave if they could, but they just don't. 742 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,799 Speaker 1: They don't. Really you're black if you're from Africa and 743 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 1: everybody else is not.

Yes, because yeah, I've taken mind 814 00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:15,680 Speaker 1: none that I would love to publicly state like you did. 815 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 1: I respect your willingness to trust these animals who listen 816 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 1: to our podcast. 817 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:26,120 Speaker 2: But he's the reason I struggle to trust the Jerry 818 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:30,399 Speaker 2: Seinfeld as a comedian is because of like, Bro, when 819 00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:34,360 Speaker 2: where's your version of that story? If you come from money, 820 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,080 Speaker 2: you don't really have to be doing this. I get 821 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,920 Speaker 2: that there's sort of like a lineage of like Jewish 822 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:43,520 Speaker 2: sort of identity built around comedy. So maybe that's where 823 00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:46,799 Speaker 2: you sort of found your connection. But the drive to 824 00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:50,759 Speaker 2: keep doing this shit at seventy years old, if there's 825 00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,479 Speaker 2: not an origin story here, man, some of this shit 826 00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:57,000 Speaker 2: just feels like word math and I swim a fuck. 827 00:48:57,080 --> 00:48:59,840 Speaker 1: That's how I feel about it. There's no heart to it. 828 00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:04,960 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I'm trying to move forward from that. It's 829 00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:07,680 Speaker 1: so heavy. It was. It was a hard day for me, 830 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 1: big dog. 831 00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:11,880 Speaker 2: I say this, one of the more cynical things that 832 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:15,680 Speaker 2: I've ever experienced as it relates to Africa and conversations 833 00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 2: around Africa, was with you. This was at your house 834 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:22,240 Speaker 2: in Denver, your your gorgeous apartment loft. 835 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:26,759 Speaker 1: Dare I say, yeah, it's a loft. Fuck all right. 836 00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:33,400 Speaker 2: Anyways, was when we were sitting on your couch and 837 00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:37,560 Speaker 2: we watched that YouTube video of that white man traveling 838 00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:42,120 Speaker 2: to like quote unquote remote Africa and handing out sour 839 00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 2: patch kids. He was like hand making fucking people eat 840 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 2: sour patch kids out of his raw palm, just pouring 841 00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:52,680 Speaker 2: it into his own palm and then they eat a 842 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:54,759 Speaker 2: sour patch kid. And he was just filming it to 843 00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:58,799 Speaker 2: see Africans react to try and candy for the first time. 844 00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:02,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was that was dark. That was brutal. I'd 845 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:11,840 Speaker 1: be hate watching some ship man. That was brutal. Fuck. 846 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:13,680 Speaker 1: That was so bad. I forgot about that. 847 00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:18,399 Speaker 2: I'll never forget that because because not only was it 848 00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 2: fucking sick and insane that he wanted to do that 849 00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:25,080 Speaker 2: in the first place, but the Africans weren't even having 850 00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:28,880 Speaker 2: that intense of a reaction to the ship because it 851 00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:29,840 Speaker 2: was just like it's. 852 00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:34,920 Speaker 1: We're not it's not that crazy. There's still people, animals. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 853 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:35,880 Speaker 1: there's just people. 854 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 2: You're not giving a baby a lemon. I know what, 855 00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:41,880 Speaker 2: I can see the little crystals on it. What's it 856 00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:42,800 Speaker 2: gonna be sour? 857 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, yeah. Also you're weirder for eating that all 858 00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:48,319 Speaker 1: the time than they are. 859 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:52,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, like we're talking about in the grand scheme of things. 860 00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:57,840 Speaker 2: If anything, what you're doing is like introducing a drug, 861 00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:01,600 Speaker 2: like you're you're just handing out drugs to people. This 862 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:05,680 Speaker 2: isn't like and insane, like you're blowing their mind. You're 863 00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:06,759 Speaker 2: just poisoning though. 864 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:09,080 Speaker 1: I mean, come on, you see what Sugar's doing in Mexico. 865 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:12,719 Speaker 1: That's not the same thing. Actually, I don't think that's fair. 866 00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:18,160 Speaker 1: That was crazy. That's a button. 867 00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 2: There's something for you that you created. 868 00:51:31,239 --> 00:51:37,520 Speaker 1: So all that being said, man, we've really covered a 869 00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:40,319 Speaker 1: lot of ground this episode. I don't even know if 870 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:42,840 Speaker 1: we did good or bad. I think it was a 871 00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:46,520 Speaker 1: conversation to have. Yeah, this stuff is good to talk 872 00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:49,239 Speaker 1: about before we start wrapping it up. I do want 873 00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:52,919 Speaker 1: to try to find this video to see. I don't 874 00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:55,359 Speaker 1: think they're going to let that out. That's crazy, bro, 875 00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:59,680 Speaker 1: because that's ultimately the conspiracy theory of it all. That's 876 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:03,880 Speaker 1: the easiest shit. The idea that the government has a 877 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:10,120 Speaker 1: video telling foreign black people to be afraid of America 878 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:14,239 Speaker 1: and blacks. That to me is crazy because it also 879 00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:19,120 Speaker 1: speaks to like, that's what they're telling via media in 880 00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:22,960 Speaker 1: all things, and maybe even ourselves to a degree, that's 881 00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:26,120 Speaker 1: what everybody's telling the world about American black people, you 882 00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 1: know what I mean? 883 00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:31,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, I'm I mean, it's such a fascinating thing 884 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:38,080 Speaker 2: to somehow create hierarchies for the lowest tier of people, 885 00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:38,680 Speaker 2: do you. 886 00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 1: Know what I mean? That Like, even when you are. 887 00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:46,440 Speaker 2: The lowest, lowest, lowest fucking person in the world, you 888 00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:49,960 Speaker 2: still have to be able to keep existing in some ways. 889 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:52,719 Speaker 2: You still have to have somebody who you think you're 890 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 2: better than. 891 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:55,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, but that's how they they have to 892 00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:58,960 Speaker 1: do it, right, It's the magic of it, right, Yeah, 893 00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:00,960 Speaker 1: and then your complacent, right, Like I mean, I think 894 00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 1: that's the story of poor white people, right, at least 895 00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:06,440 Speaker 1: we're not them they're taking our job, you know what 896 00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:09,280 Speaker 1: I mean, we were okay, if it weren't for y'all, 897 00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 1: you know. 898 00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:12,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, this would all be a different experience had you 899 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:15,759 Speaker 2: not been here, or had you not done what you did. 900 00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah. 901 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:21,080 Speaker 2: Right, yeah, no, it's it's it's a fascinating magic. I 902 00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:24,279 Speaker 2: think that white people figured it out very early, and 903 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,239 Speaker 2: to their to their credit, they do it well. They 904 00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:29,879 Speaker 2: fucking nail it every time of figuring out a way 905 00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,640 Speaker 2: to make people distrust and hate each other. 906 00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:39,280 Speaker 1: But all that being said, I believe in that video. 907 00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:41,600 Speaker 1: I believe that video. I don't think we're going to 908 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:47,160 Speaker 1: be able to find it, but I yeah, that video exists. 909 00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:51,120 Speaker 2: I looked it up and in all I'm seeing at 910 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:54,239 Speaker 2: least at the beginning of this search, and I'll spend 911 00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:56,560 Speaker 2: a few hours on this after we log off. But 912 00:53:57,320 --> 00:54:01,200 Speaker 2: there's a lot a lot of content of people asking 913 00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:06,120 Speaker 2: do black people and Africans hate each other? And why 914 00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:08,759 Speaker 2: do black people in Africans hate each other? But not 915 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:12,520 Speaker 2: a lot of information of like white the government taught. 916 00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:15,200 Speaker 1: Us to do this, and I don't think they do. 917 00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:18,759 Speaker 1: I think that like it's systemic, But I think at 918 00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:22,040 Speaker 1: the Core. I don't feel that way because I don't 919 00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:27,360 Speaker 1: feel like we're inherently hateful I either group M you 920 00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:29,919 Speaker 1: know what I mean. I do think, if anything, it's 921 00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:33,080 Speaker 1: more put upon and systemic, But I don't I don't 922 00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:36,439 Speaker 1: think that like I don't know, man, When I think 923 00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:42,400 Speaker 1: of Africa, I do think of like love and really 924 00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:47,440 Speaker 1: resilient people who are open to life and other people 925 00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:49,000 Speaker 1: despite what the world is shown. 926 00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:53,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's fair to say. I even to 927 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 2: tack onto that, I would say, so much of it 928 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:01,799 Speaker 2: is maybe less about like even needing to teach us 929 00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:05,120 Speaker 2: to hate because if that, if what you're saying is true, 930 00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:10,400 Speaker 2: and I think I believe what you're saying, then our want, 931 00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:14,040 Speaker 2: our willingness to hate is not at the forefront of 932 00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:17,800 Speaker 2: who we are. But what they can do and smart 933 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:23,600 Speaker 2: strategies that they employ is to just keep our information separate. Right, 934 00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:27,000 Speaker 2: Like how many African books do you read in the 935 00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:31,120 Speaker 2: average American classroom? And even if you are reading an 936 00:55:31,160 --> 00:55:33,440 Speaker 2: African book, how much of it is something that you 937 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:36,560 Speaker 2: had to like seek out on your own. 938 00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:38,399 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Or it's probably like things 939 00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:41,400 Speaker 1: fall apart, which I bet you taught I didn't teach it. 940 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:45,360 Speaker 2: I did read it and took an African studies class 941 00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:48,360 Speaker 2: in college where I read that, But I wouldn't have 942 00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:51,360 Speaker 2: read it, I think, had I just been taking general 943 00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 2: English classes, maybe somewhere along the line you read that. 944 00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:58,200 Speaker 2: But like that's their only African book. 945 00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:00,880 Speaker 1: That's what I mean is that's like the the one, 946 00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:03,480 Speaker 1: and that story is sort of like such a sad 947 00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:09,160 Speaker 1: African story. It's a very like affirming African story if 948 00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,480 Speaker 1: you already have negative stereotypes, E. 949 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:15,600 Speaker 2: Sad place and I like ocon quote, but that's yeah, 950 00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:16,960 Speaker 2: I think it's a great piece. 951 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:21,040 Speaker 1: It's just not it ain't fixing my brain about what 952 00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:25,440 Speaker 1: this place is right right right, So you know you 953 00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:28,120 Speaker 1: want to fix your brain, just go watch some Nigerian movies. 954 00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:31,600 Speaker 1: A lot a lot of good magic in those, stay 955 00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:34,680 Speaker 1: off of YouTube. 956 00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:38,480 Speaker 2: They almost a man handing out sour bad skins, and 957 00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:40,760 Speaker 2: it'll make you feel fucking. 958 00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:43,960 Speaker 1: I don't know how I thought we were just gonna 959 00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:47,279 Speaker 1: go do a comedy show after that.
