Speaker 1: I was donkey up to today's time.
Speaker 2: Damn he hogged.
Speaker 3: It's time for donkey.
Speaker 2: I ain't trying to beat donkey today no more. They
Speaker 2: should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm not
Speaker 2: making new people do these days.
Speaker 3: Called donkey of the day, and it really caught me
Speaker 3: off guard. Damn Charlamagne, who got the donkey out of
Speaker 3: the day today? Well, jess hilarious donkey today for Monday,
Speaker 3: May thirtieth goes to the organizers of a Greenville, South
Speaker 3: Carolina June Tief event. Salute to the eight six four
Speaker 3: all my upstate South Carolina brethren. What's happening dropping the
Speaker 3: clues bombs for them? Okay, now we know what June
Speaker 3: teenth is, right? In American Black holidays celebrated on June
Speaker 3: nineteenth to commemorate the emancipation of enslaved people in America.
Speaker 2: Well, in Greenville, for.
Speaker 3: Whatever reason, they decided to use white models to promote
Speaker 3: the holiday marking the emancipation of black slaves. You heard
Speaker 3: me right, They decided to use white models to promote
Speaker 3: the holiday marking the emancipation of black slaves.
Speaker 2: Now, iaw this, I thought it was fake.
Speaker 3: I thought it was one of those things somebody created
Speaker 3: and put online just to get a reaction out of people.
Speaker 2: But lo and.
Speaker 3: Behold, I was wrong. Let's go to WCNC Charlotte for
Speaker 3: the report police.
Speaker 4: Because we are seeing backlash on social media tonight. As
Speaker 4: marketing material for a Juneteenth celebration in the Carolinas, well,
Speaker 4: this is a picture of a Juneteenth banner in Greenville,
Speaker 4: South Carolina, circulating online. It is drawing some ire and
Speaker 4: it shows, as you can see here, a white couple
Speaker 4: advertising this upcoming Juneteenth celebration. The lead organizer says that
Speaker 4: they were trying to portray how everyone is welcomed to
Speaker 4: join in Juneteenth celebrations. That said organizers are apologizing for
Speaker 4: the execution of that message.
Speaker 5: Do we understand that it's a very sensitive subject, especially
Speaker 5: in the African American community, and we failed at making
Speaker 5: sure that we completely centered African Americans at the center
Speaker 5: of our marketing, of all of our marketing.
Speaker 4: Organizers apt apologizing say that they plan to change the
Speaker 4: banners to feature now just the Juneteenth and the Pan
Speaker 4: African flags.
Speaker 3: You know, you never see black people blackwashing white culture,
Speaker 3: and a few times you do see black people being
Speaker 3: given inclusion in something white, you get reactions like, you know,
Speaker 3: a highly got for the little mermaid? You know, and
Speaker 3: I have no idea. You know, why we think we
Speaker 3: need white people is to face the Juneteenth as much
Speaker 3: backlash as we give Republican legislators for trying to retail
Speaker 3: American history and for creating laws to keep real discussions
Speaker 3: of race out of.
Speaker 2: Schools and banning books about race.
Speaker 3: I but trying to hide the truth about this country,
Speaker 3: especially in regards, you know, to anything to do with
Speaker 3: black people. Why as a black person would you ever
Speaker 3: want or think to gentrify June teenth?
Speaker 2: Are you doing this so Starbucks gives us our own
Speaker 2: specialty drink?
Speaker 3: Do you want a caramel blackachino for June teenth?
Speaker 2: What's that thing you'd be drinking? Envy? Do it?
Speaker 6: Deliminade? No macado, machiato machiato? You want to sweet potato mai?
Speaker 6: You want to sweep potato machiato? Do you think those
Speaker 6: flavors can only be obtained by including mayonnaise on the
Speaker 6: June teenth menu?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 2: I know what it is. You want Whole.
Speaker 3: Foods to have a June teen special? You want organic
Speaker 3: chicken and seedless organic Guatermelon on sale. You think those
Speaker 3: things can only happen if white people are involved. This
Speaker 3: is just like when they took the Five Heart Beats
Speaker 3: off the cover of that album because the label thought
Speaker 3: it would help sell better with white people on the cover,
Speaker 3: which was actually a thing.
Speaker 2: They used to always do this in music.
Speaker 3: Okay, it's likely, yeah, back in the day, it'd be
Speaker 3: black artists, but it'd be white people on the cover.
Speaker 3: It's like Brad Pitt playing the Mexican of Tom Cruise
Speaker 3: playing the last Samurai. Okay, now, the co found depeat
Speaker 3: lee that the last thing we want to do is
Speaker 3: exclude people like they did for us, which is true,
Speaker 3: but you don't have to exclusively invite the people that
Speaker 3: actually did us wrong.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: This is the celebration of our people being free, all right.
Speaker 3: That's like getting released from jail and inviting the cop
Speaker 3: and judge. That's since you away to your welcome home party. Okay,
Speaker 3: you know what, I don't even know why I'm trying
Speaker 3: to explain this. My good sister of man, Deciell's had
Speaker 3: some thoughts about this, and she summed it up quite nicely.
Speaker 2: Let's listen, you're black people.
Speaker 7: June teenth, is our day. You don't have to feel
Speaker 7: any kind of way about white people not being included
Speaker 7: in Juneteenth because they are included in Juneteenth as the
Speaker 7: descendants of enslavers. But June teen should be about unity.
Speaker 7: Why this country is not about unity? Juneteenth is an
Speaker 7: American holiday. If you're not going to teach true history
Speaker 7: in American schools, then don't come trying to take black
Speaker 7: holidays and call them American holidays. The point is is
Speaker 7: that black folks can be all right celebrating a day
Speaker 7: for black folks without feeling like we have to include
Speaker 7: other folks. I don't see Christians spinning dradles for hanka ads.
Speaker 2: But hey, points you're made.
Speaker 3: Please give the organizers of June teenth in Greenville the
Speaker 3: sweet sounds of Hamilton's please.
Speaker 2: Oh no, you are the dog the day, all right.
Speaker 3: This whole story got me thinking, why is there not
Speaker 3: a sweet potato macarena?
Speaker 2: What's it going? Oh my god?
Speaker 3: Because you don't even know what it is. Why is
Speaker 3: there not a sweet potato machado? Wouldn't that be fire?
Speaker 2: You don't have you ever had a machiato? No?
Speaker 3: Okay, Like I just feel like a warm, sweet potato
Speaker 3: back flavor beverage from Starbucks would be amazing.
Speaker 2: Starbucks is not gonna be sweet enough. You know, they
Speaker 2: stingy on the sugar.
Speaker 3: We got a Duncan, Oh, Duncan, dunk the they capitalized
Speaker 3: on the sugar. Now, Duncan has been a fantastic sponsor
Speaker 3: of the Breakfast Breakfast Club. We might need to do
Speaker 3: that for June teens Breakfast Club. Sweet potato hot chocolate.
Speaker 3: That would be potato something, And then maybe y'all can
Speaker 3: stop buying so much Starbucks.
Speaker 2: That's not that's not Why would you lie?
Speaker 6: But you know, you know, and they charge you if
Speaker 6: you say if you go to Starbucks and say no ice,
Speaker 6: you know they charge you.
Speaker 2: Extra for that, like because they charged you actually because.
Speaker 6: He means you want more juice lemonade on y'all like this, y'all,
Speaker 6: like I'm Duncan do on this person myself.
Speaker 3: Duncan the break gonna come up with a sweet potato
