The Raiders 15 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 2: and Rams are like they're like they're like pieces to me, 16 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 2: like because they are they didn't originate here and they 17 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 2: never stay prop. The Lakers or the Dodgers didn't originate 18 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 2: here either. 19 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: They are our teams. 20 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 2: Okay, And of course there is the Galaxy, LAFC, Angel 21 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 2: City FC and the Sparks, all of which yes, those 22 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 2: are our teams too. Can definitely co sign everybody I 23 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 2: just said there. Anyway, there is At some point the 24 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 2: Dodgers became part of the soil. We just want a 25 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 2: back to back series. I can't believe it. 26 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 1: I tell you what. 27 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 2: At the bottom of the knife, I was finn to 28 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,479 Speaker 2: turn that TV off because I was like, it is over. 29 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: But the power of Kendrick, the power of Los Angeles 30 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 2: defeated Toronto once again, continuing the ball stomping. There are 31 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 2: things that we will continue to love and boast about 32 00:01:55,400 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 2: Los Angeles Dodgers. Fernando Venezuela, Jackie Robinson, I mean, did 33 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 2: we integrate baseball? 34 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: I feel like we integrated baseball. 35 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 2: There are a lot of things the Dodgers will always 36 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 2: be proud of and will always be a part of us, 37 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 2: our story. 38 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 1: The team belongs to us. 39 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 2: Having said that the stadium, Schefez Ravine was a neighborhood 40 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 2: of a Latino community that was violently displaced, pulled from 41 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 2: their homes and had their homes destroyed, so that we 42 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 2: can make that stadium and all the way up to today. 43 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,959 Speaker 2: The owner of the Dodgers, who just now bought majority 44 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 2: share of the Lakers, has a deep financial tie to 45 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 2: Ice his partners in the GEO group. 46 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,839 Speaker 1: He is the CEO of the Google. 47 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,959 Speaker 2: Hind Partners in Global Investment firm, which holds the majority 48 00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 2: stake approximately thirty eight percent, a private owned corporation that 49 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 2: operates ice detention centers. He's literally making money off ice raids. 50 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 2: It's complicated, y'all tap in with me. So it gets 51 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 2: real spooky, scary, crazy, scary, spooky hilarious when we start 52 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 2: making our moral stance as to where we where in 53 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 2: what we want to participate in. Okay, I have participated 54 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 2: in the target and Home Depot boycotts for most of 55 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 2: the year, and then my pipes broke. I had a 56 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 2: pipe burst right here outside of my studio. Now I 57 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 2: got other options. I could go to Low's Right, you 58 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 2: could go to Harbor Free right. There are other things 59 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 2: you can do, and to the extent that I can, 60 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 2: I will. However, when I got my home, my mother 61 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 2: just in one of the most loving acts possible, shared 62 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 2: her home Depot credit card with me, and she was like, 63 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: this is my gift to you as a congratulations to 64 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 2: you purchasing a home. So whenever I need to fix 65 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 2: stuff at the house, I can use that. Now. Granted 66 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 2: I don't ever abuse it, but I have a Home 67 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:32,159 Speaker 2: Depot credit card. I kind of duck my head every 68 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 2: time I walk in. But can you name me a 69 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 2: hardware store that isn't somehow tied to if you dig 70 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 2: hard enough, tied to something that I deeply disagree with. 71 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 2: Amazon hate it, absolutely hate it. There are ways that 72 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 2: you can use Amazon as a search engine. Having said that, 73 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 2: every time I come home, there's an Amazon package in 74 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 2: front of my door, one of my children, no matter 75 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 2: despite how hard a fight against this, what are you 76 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 2: what are you gonna do? You're gonna what are you 77 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 2: gonna go to Target instead? 78 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: Do you know what I'm saying? What do you you know? 79 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 2: There's the point I'm making is at some point it 80 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 2: becomes just infrastructure. I like, I don't know what to say. 81 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 2: The Olympics are coming here. The Olympics are notoriously horrible 82 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 2: for the local communities. It's gonna be so bad. Having 83 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 2: said that, I can't wait for the track and field. 84 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 2: I mean, the list goes on. Do you do you 85 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 2: listen to college dropout? Because that's the old Kanye I 86 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 2: don't like. I don't know what to say. So the 87 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 2: dialogue around LA right now is how in the world 88 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 2: the same people that was in the streets in droves 89 00:05:54,600 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 2: protesting ice could go celebrate this team where the own 90 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 2: owner is profiting off of the very same thing. Now, 91 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 2: there's a lot of ways to look at that. Some 92 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 2: people would say keep politics out of baseball. I would 93 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 2: say that's literally impossible. Okay, that's number one. Other people 94 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 2: would say, well, the team belongs to us, it don't 95 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 2: belong to it, don't belong to the owner, to which 96 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 2: you could say it literally belongs to the owner because 97 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 2: he's the owner. I mean, I mean, this guy is 98 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 2: like like he partnered with like pallentteer Technologies and developed 99 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 2: the data analytics for the immigration os of which ICE 100 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 2: use to track immigrants to support to support the deportation efforts, 101 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 2: like a contract worth thirty million dollars. He's literally profiting 102 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: off the very people that supports his team. It's complicated, 103 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 2: but I think this tap in is not necessarily about 104 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 2: pointing out the complications of this. What I want to 105 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 2: talk to y'all about is you make your own decision 106 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 2: how you want to handle this. There's a lot of 107 00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 2: people in my feed that are like really shaming each other, Like, 108 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 2: you know, it's obviously my feet is cooked, But the 109 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 2: shame of shame on you for not loving your community 110 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 2: enough to boycott the Dodgers. Also, shame on you for 111 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 2: not being able to separate the owner, who's a piece 112 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 2: of shit, from the franchise, which is a part of 113 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 2: our fabric. I take this particular stance, decide on your 114 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 2: own to the degree for which you can sleep at night. 115 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: Decide. I don't feel any. 116 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 2: Obligation to correct or confirm or affirm anyone in these 117 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 2: type of situations. The whole systems compromised. Where you're gonna, 118 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 2: you're gonna if you unplug and go live in the woods, 119 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 2: that's still somebody else's land. The problem is, I still 120 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 2: don't believe you should own land anyway, because you ain't 121 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 2: make land, don't belong to the natives if they could, 122 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 2: So like, what land are you standing on? Where you 123 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 2: are going to homestead? It's not possible. So at the 124 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 2: end of the. 125 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: Day, I just encourage you. 126 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 2: You know, we are going to continue to have these 127 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 2: moments where our loves and our allegiances will be tested. 128 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 2: It'll continue to be complicated as the world we. 129 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: Live in becomes more and more weird. 130 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 2: So whether you decide to sit out or to sit 131 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 2: in the nuance and the complications and conflictions of both 132 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 2: cheering and protesting. Whether you can square that circle or not, 133 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 2: it's truly up to you. You're not going to be 134 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 2: judged by me either way, because we both know ice 135 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 2: is a scourge on our communities right now, and also 136 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 2: Vivlo Doyers tap me with
