So 0:02:36.919 --> 0:02:38.679 the bad thing about it is, you know, they can't 0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:41.160 have any parties, you know, So today we put together 0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:43.960 something special for them, or I ain't even gonna say we. 0:02:44.280 --> 0:02:46.800 My wife did. Um I paid for it, but my 0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:50.480 wife put together something special for them. I'm excited about it. 0:02:50.520 --> 0:02:52.160 So when they get up this morning, we set up 0:02:52.160 --> 0:02:54.600 a whole carnival theme in the family room. We took 0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:56.880 out all the couches to chairs.

Ain't nothing we can do. 0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:15.960 They can't have any parties, No friends could come by. 0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:17.800 But we're trying to make it as far as possible 0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:19.919 as them and try to keep any type of of 0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:22.960 of a little bit of a normalcy.

Okay, all right, let's get the show cracking 0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:39.599 front page news. What we're talking about, Well, Joe Biden 0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:42.280 is speaking out. He was in Philly yesterday morning, and 0:04:42.400 --> 0:04:45.559 he was talking about Donald Trump's response to George Floyd 0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:49.200 protests and some of his own plans. All right, we'll 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:51.200 get into that next. Keep it locked. This to breakfast Club. 0:04:51.240 --> 0:04:55.680 Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela, Ye, Charlomagne 0:04:55.720 --> 0:04:58.040 the guy. We all the breakfast Club. Let's get in 0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:03.560 some front page news. Where were starting you? Well, yesterday 0:05:03.680 --> 0:05:06.400 Joe Biden was speaking from Philadelphia's City Hall and he 0:05:06.600 --> 0:05:09.640 was talking about a bunch of different things. One thing 0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:12.640 he discussed was how racism has to come to an 0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:15.200 end in this division. Here's what he said. I can't 0:05:15.279 --> 0:05:18.120 leave this moment thinking that we can once again turn 0:05:18.160 --> 0:05:21.400 away and do nothing. The moment has come for our 0:05:21.520 --> 0:05:25.080 nation to deal with systemic racism, to deal with the 0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:28.839 growing economic inequity that exists in our nation, to deal 0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:32.080 with the denial of the promise of this nation. But 0:05:32.160 --> 0:05:36.760 it's going to take more than talk. In addition, he 0:05:36.839 --> 0:05:41.640 talks about it. In addition, he talks about police reform. 0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:43.760 Here's what Joe Biden had to say about that a 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:46.839 down payment on what is long overdo should come now, 0:05:46.960 --> 0:05:49.720 should come immediately. I call on the Congress to Act 0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:52.480 this month. Our measures that will be the first step 0:05:52.520 --> 0:05:56.200 in this direction, starting with real police reform. Congressman Jefferies 0:05:56.600 --> 0:05:59.840 has a bill to outlaw chokeholes. There are other measures 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:02.760 stop transferring weapons of war the police forces, improve over 0:06:02.839 --> 0:06:06.479 shutting accountability, to create a model use of force standard. 0:06:06.839 --> 0:06:09.120 Looking ahead in the first one hundred days of my presidency, 0:06:09.200 --> 0:06:12.760 I've committed to creating a National Police overstut Commission. I've 0:06:12.839 --> 0:06:16.200 long believe we need real community police. We all need 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:18.960 to take a hard look at the culture allows for 0:06:19.080 --> 0:06:25.080 the senseless tragedies to keep happening. I'll be honest. Let 0:06:25.080 --> 0:06:27.200 me stop him game that's gonna say. I'll be honest, 0:06:27.240 --> 0:06:28.840 Like that's what he's supposed to say, Like he is 0:06:28.839 --> 0:06:31.000 supposed to say that. Like do we think any differently? 0:06:31.040 --> 0:06:33.160 Would he get up there and say anything else but that? Now, 0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:35.760 I just pray the guy that if when he wins 0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:39.400 the presidency, he follows through with everything that he says, Well, no, no, 0:06:39.480 --> 0:06:41.520 it's not about winning the presidency. It's about getting him 0:06:41.560 --> 0:06:45.720 to make those policy commitments publicly. Now, Okay, I watched 0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:47.720 it yesterday. It was good. You know, he's talking the 0:06:47.760 --> 0:06:49.640 way he needs to talk. He's talking about this mantle 0:06:49.720 --> 0:06:52.360 and systemic racism. He's talking about investing in the black 0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:56.680 community through legislation and economic justice. Listen, if President Barack 0:06:56.720 --> 0:07:00.480 Obama was JFK, Joe Biden has the opportunity to be 0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:02.919 Lendon B. Johnson. He has the opportunity to be justice 0:07:02.960 --> 0:07:06.320 progressive on race and class as LBJ was, and he 0:07:06.480 --> 0:07:08.719 better because they ain't no good gonna come to become 0:07:08.800 --> 0:07:12.800 to America until he'd be right by the black community. Period. Okay, 0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:16.440 all right, well here's here's what he had to say 0:07:16.480 --> 0:07:20.080 about economic justice yesterday. In order that true American justice, 0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:23.240 we need economic justice as well as a media step. 0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:27.480 Congress should act now to rectify racial inequities, to allow 0:07:27.600 --> 0:07:32.240 COVID nineteen recovery funds to be diverted from where they live. 0:07:32.800 --> 0:07:36.120 I'll be sending forth my general and economic justice and 0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:39.000 opportunity in the weeks and months ahead, but it begins 0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:44.760 with healthcare. Listen, man, America has to to office for 0:07:44.880 --> 0:07:47.560 its original sin, which your slavery. That's the only way 0:07:47.640 --> 0:07:49.640 this nation will ever heal. And the only way to 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:54.400 heal racial inequities is legislation and reparation. So Joe go 0:07:54.440 --> 0:07:57.480 ahead and announce your black woman renime. You already committed 0:07:57.480 --> 0:07:59.280 to a black woman on the Supreme Court. That'll be 0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:02.280 your Lendon B. Johnson third good Marshal moment. And lean 0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:06.560 into this black agenda, lean into this police reform, provide 0:08:06.600 --> 0:08:09.120 this economic justice for the black community, and go out 0:08:09.120 --> 0:08:11.440 there and try to bring this thing home in November. 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:16.960 Because if Joe Biden did sweep off seven presidential primaries yesterday, 0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:21.040 not a surprise at all because there's nobody that's really 0:08:21.080 --> 0:08:24.080 actively imposing him. Yeah, so it's not a surprise at all. 0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:27.120 But those are the results. I'm in Ferguson also elected 0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:31.160 their first black mayor, So that happened in Ferguson, and 0:08:32.559 --> 0:08:35.439 obviously that's something I think that's a really positive thing 0:08:36.280 --> 0:08:39.559 in Ferguson. So shout out to them. Ella Jones took 0:08:39.600 --> 0:08:43.120 fifty four percent of the vote in that race. All right, 0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:46.920 I'm angela.

Yeah, yeah, 0:09:29.040 --> 0:09:32.199 this is just a guy looking at guy looking in 0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:34.360 They the best way the player game is watched from 0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:37.640 the stands, right, So this is what I would really 0:09:37.720 --> 0:09:40.160 want to happen in America within the next couple of years. 0:09:40.640 --> 0:09:42.600 You can correct me if I'm wrong anyway I say 0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:46.000 something wrong. So this is it. So I hear that 0:09:46.760 --> 0:09:51.680 Native American Indians they get something like morney every month 0:09:51.720 --> 0:09:54.160 from government, just right, that reparation money. Is that true? 0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:58.840 I don't know that something suck something something to that effect. Yeah, yeah, 0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:01.280 I mean I mean South Smarta right now. So I 0:10:01.360 --> 0:10:03.120 know that the terminals they get they get a check 0:10:03.200 --> 0:10:06.440 every month. I mean by the way that they're like, yo, 0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:08.520 I was so like when you come to this country, 0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:12.520 get yourself a seminal girl, because you'll be banking all month, 0:10:12.559 --> 0:10:14.920 you know. I mean, so that's what that's what I heard. 0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:17.839 But but what I was saying is I think the 0:10:17.960 --> 0:10:20.960 best way to get rid of um what's happening in America, 0:10:21.280 --> 0:10:24.400 well racism. You really can't change with protests in our 0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:27.400 looting because you gets throwing all these people who are 0:10:27.480 --> 0:10:30.120 like born in racism. I should live in South Carolina. 0:10:30.160 --> 0:10:32.559 So is a place called aching, and aching got some 0:10:32.960 --> 0:10:37.240 got some places really, you know, so some people who 0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:40.880 are just racismist part So some people just will never 0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:42.920 change no matter how much you loose to our protests. 0:10:43.480 --> 0:10:46.680 What I think should happen is like you should once 0:10:46.760 --> 0:10:49.720 you have like a business plan as a black person, 0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:53.440 a solid business plan, the government should put into place 0:10:53.640 --> 0:10:57.960 something where you the only qualification you need for granting 0:10:58.200 --> 0:10:59.880 to get your business off the girl is us being. 0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:02.720 That's just that reparation I would love to see, because 0:11:03.400 --> 0:11:06.000 if you have a tide business man, you walk into 0:11:06.080 --> 0:11:08.760 that building, you walk on with checks to purchase it. 0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:10.959 If you want to be a big up, you had 0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:13.640 to check to purchase up the oven and and all 0:11:13.679 --> 0:11:16.480 that sort of stuff.

Do you know if her chests? Bro Hey, 0:12:34.320 --> 0:12:38.040 good morning miss ye and umm dj n vy here 0:12:38.160 --> 0:12:41.880 Every morning I listened to Charlemagne with his commentary about 0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:46.560 black recreations along with his uh need for a black 0:12:46.840 --> 0:12:51.360 female vice president. Reckless commentaries like that come him and 0:12:51.440 --> 0:12:55.199 people like Sharon Collins. It's going to allow Trump to 0:12:55.360 --> 0:12:58.520 walk right into the white album. What benefits for the 0:12:58.679 --> 0:13:02.160 for the black population happen is like we're having now. 0:13:02.640 --> 0:13:06.439 He believes that every Brent truck should run into the 0:13:06.760 --> 0:13:09.880 front of every black household and dump a bag of money. 0:13:10.200 --> 0:13:12.599 That's not gonna happen, and it should not happen. He 0:13:12.720 --> 0:13:15.720 does not owe Black America nothing. Only thing he owes 0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:20.400 Black America is basically civil justice. Okay, and make sure 0:13:20.480 --> 0:13:23.360 that there are is criminal justice reform along with these 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:27.520 police departments. And yes they should demilitarize the police department 0:13:27.880 --> 0:13:31.920 if I'm correct. Charlemagne said that he's a dropout, but 0:13:32.200 --> 0:13:35.600 yet because of determination and hard wood, he's where he's 0:13:35.600 --> 0:13:41.720 at now. Black America has every opportunity and up they 0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:45.079 want to do. Hang up on him. The reason I'm 0:13:45.120 --> 0:13:47.439 hanging up on him because the Vice President, Joe Biden, 0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:50.520 even thinks different. You heard him yesterday, yesterday he's talking 0:13:50.520 --> 0:13:54.480 about dismantling systemic racism. Yesterday, he's talking about investing in 0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:58.600 the black community through legislation and economic justice. Any stupid 0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:01.760 ass negro that says America because doesn't old black people 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:05.400 is a goddamn sellout. Hell, yes, they old black people. 0:14:05.480 --> 0:14:08.400 We built this country for free. They have to atone 0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:10.959 for their original sin, which is slavery. And that's the 0:14:11.080 --> 0:14:13.120 only way this nation is going to ever hill and 0:14:13.320 --> 0:14:16.560 and the only way we're gonna ever have heal racial 0:14:16.640 --> 0:14:20.600 inequalities is through legislation and reparation, not chip to Hello, 0:14:20.680 --> 0:14:21.920 what the hell are you talking about? And you know 0:14:21.960 --> 0:14:23.800 why we need a black women running make it's simple 0:14:23.880 --> 0:14:28.400 math because in two thousand and twelve, from twenty twenty sixteen, 0:14:28.680 --> 0:14:31.640 four point four million people that were registered to vote 0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:35.280 didn't show up to vote. A third of them were black. Okay, 0:14:35.520 --> 0:14:37.920 knock it off, and and and black women vote for 0:14:38.280 --> 0:14:40.880 voted for Hillary ninety percent of the time. So why 0:14:40.880 --> 0:14:43.160 wouldn't you lean into your base? Why are you aalking 0:14:43.240 --> 0:14:46.960 with that man? I hate dumb name, And why wouldn't you, 0:14:47.040 --> 0:14:49.800 And why wouldn't you want black people to get economic justice? 0:14:50.120 --> 0:14:52.320 Why are you always been through that ud? Why are 0:14:52.320 --> 0:14:56.400 you aalking with that man? That's why I don't talk 0:14:56.400 --> 0:14:59.840 to after five o'clock. Well, let's well, it's it's before 0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:03.880 too early. Think out my goddamn blood pressure go up 0:15:03.920 --> 0:15:06.800 telling me that black black person saying black people shouldn't 0:15:06.840 --> 0:15:09.200 get nothing. That's what's wrong with y'all. Y'all don't understand, y'all. 0:15:09.240 --> 0:15:11.680 Votes are quick, pro quo kids. Y'all ain't never demanding 0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:13.520 nothing in your life.

We 0:15:27.240 --> 0:15:29.440 got rumors on the way. Yes, and it looks like 0:15:29.520 --> 0:15:32.160 a Manda Sales is not renewing her contract with the Reil. 0:15:32.200 --> 0:15:34.760 We'll tell you what you had to say about that, yes, 0:15:34.880 --> 0:15:39.040 and also we'll be discussing a radio show that should 0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:42.360 not be renewing their contract. Well at least I heard 0:15:42.360 --> 0:15:44.400 you shouldn't be renewing their contract. Me I love a 0:15:44.440 --> 0:15:46.640 Manda Seales on the rail but anyway, well, I'll get 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:48.880 to rooms. Next is the breakfast Club. The morning, the 0:15:49.120 --> 0:15:57.320 Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne 0:15:57.360 --> 0:15:59.120 the guy. We all the Breakfast Club. Let's get to 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:06.400 the rumors. Let's all command the Seals. This is the 0:16:06.520 --> 0:16:11.200 rule of report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well, 0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:14.520 Amanda Seals is leaving the reel. She says she has 0:16:14.640 --> 0:16:17.440 not renewed her contract, but she wants to make sure 0:16:17.520 --> 0:16:20.000 people don't make up their own narratives about what happened. 0:16:20.080 --> 0:16:22.720 And here's what she had to say. My contract is 0:16:22.800 --> 0:16:24.360 up at the reel and I did not renew it 0:16:24.640 --> 0:16:27.240 because it doesn't feel good to my soul to be 0:16:27.360 --> 0:16:30.360 at a place where I cannot speak to my people 0:16:30.440 --> 0:16:32.320 the way they need to be spoken to, and where 0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:34.920 the people who are speaking to me in disparaging ways 0:16:35.160 --> 0:16:39.160 are not being handled. I'm not in a space where 0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:42.560 I can, as a full black woman, have my voice 0:16:42.760 --> 0:16:45.640 and my co workers also have their voices, and where 0:16:45.680 --> 0:16:48.840 the people at the top are not respecting the necessity 0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:51.640 for Black voices to be at the top two. Listen, man, 0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:54.120 my sister not scared. My sister me betting on herself 0:16:54.160 --> 0:16:56.320 for a long time. You know, one thing about independence, 0:16:56.360 --> 0:16:58.760 once you have built something independently, it's very hard to 0:16:58.800 --> 0:17:00.800 give up your freedom and go, you know, work for 0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:03.240 your work for a corporation. And Smart, Funny and Black 0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:05.000 as a brand, and man, the seals built which makes 0:17:05.040 --> 0:17:07.399 people like the Real want to be in business with her. 0:17:07.480 --> 0:17:11.239 So she's always got that. Absolutely gonna stand up. She's 0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:14.040 gonna keep doing her Smart, Funny and Black amongst other things, 0:17:14.119 --> 0:17:16.520 and she gonna keep prospering the way she was before 0:17:16.560 --> 0:17:18.320 there was the Real. Don't get a twisted. She got 0:17:18.359 --> 0:17:21.480 a plan. A mando always has a plan. Should be fine. Yeah, 0:17:22.119 --> 0:17:24.360 I said, it's hard, you know, once you've been independent, 0:17:24.640 --> 0:17:26.720 you know, making your own money, to be a part 0:17:26.720 --> 0:17:30.440 of a corporation. So I get it that freedom is priceless. Yes, 0:17:30.680 --> 0:17:35.479 And speaking of these talk shows during the day, Megan McCain, 0:17:36.560 --> 0:17:38.520 she is, of course, as you know, on the View 0:17:38.520 --> 0:17:40.600 as one of the co hosts there. She wrote on 0:17:40.760 --> 0:17:43.440 Twitter about the protests that have been taking place in 0:17:43.520 --> 0:17:46.520 New York. She said, my neighborhood in Manhattan is eviscerated 0:17:46.520 --> 0:17:49.240 and looks like a war zone. To Blasio and Coromar 0:17:49.359 --> 0:17:52.120 are an utter disgrace. This is not America. Our leaders 0:17:52.160 --> 0:17:55.159 have abandoned us and continue to let great American cities 0:17:55.240 --> 0:17:57.840 burn to the ground and be destroyed. I never could 0:17:57.880 --> 0:18:00.919 have fathomed this well. Another person who lives in her building, 0:18:01.040 --> 0:18:05.639 Kristin Bartlett, who writes for TBS's late night program, responded, Megan, 0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:08.120 we live in the same building and I just walked outside. 0:18:08.240 --> 0:18:15.840 It's fine, So shut that down pretty quickly.

And Kimberly 0:18:22.800 --> 0:18:25.879 and Bet they're on a radio show in Rochester, New 0:18:25.960 --> 0:18:29.000 York on ninety five point one, and they were having 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:33.200 a conversation about the attack of a local couple after 0:18:33.400 --> 0:18:37.600 protests that were happening in downtown Rochester. And Kimberly and 0:18:38.080 --> 0:18:41.960 Beck actually have this to say. Were they acting and 0:18:42.320 --> 0:18:45.800 word ish? There's your question.

By god, you're a sog. 0:19:07.240 --> 0:19:10.160 And by the way, there are people in the black 0:19:10.240 --> 0:19:13.280 community would say they are acting any word, but they 0:19:13.359 --> 0:19:16.119 can say that. You can't say that. It's double standard. 0:19:16.280 --> 0:19:21.959 I was gonna sat appreciate the devil standard. No interesting, Kimberly, 0:19:22.040 --> 0:19:25.240 you are acting a white devilly, all right, Kimberly, you 0:19:25.280 --> 0:19:28.800 are acting crackerly. You're acting crackerly.

There's a public viewing a memorial 0:22:24.920 --> 0:22:27.159 that will take place, and on Monday, a memorial will 0:22:27.200 --> 0:22:30.960 take place in Houston at the Fountain of Praise Church. Now, 0:22:31.320 --> 0:22:34.200 George Floyd's door to Gigi. She's six years old. And 0:22:34.440 --> 0:22:38.200 this video just really makes you want to shut a 0:22:38.240 --> 0:22:40.040 tear if you didn't shut a tear when you first 0:22:40.080 --> 0:22:44.280 watched it. And here she is. She is actually um 0:22:44.680 --> 0:22:47.119 sitting on Stephen Jackson's shoulders. And here's what she had 0:22:47.160 --> 0:22:53.000 to say, he did what. Yes, I love it. I 0:22:53.119 --> 0:22:58.480 love it man, Daddy changed the world. Yes. And the 0:22:58.680 --> 0:23:02.360 mother of George Floyd's door, Roxy Washington, actually told reporters 0:23:02.400 --> 0:23:04.600 that she wants to see justice for Floyd and for 0:23:04.760 --> 0:23:07.240 her daughter as well. Here are some of the things 0:23:07.280 --> 0:23:10.400 that she had to say. Janna does not have a fall. 0:23:12.880 --> 0:23:18.000 He will never see grow up graduate. He will never 0:23:18.160 --> 0:23:23.000 walk down. If it's a problem she's saying, and it 0:23:23.160 --> 0:23:27.280 she needs a day. She does not have been anymore. 0:23:27.880 --> 0:23:31.520 I'm on justice for him because he was good, no 0:23:31.720 --> 0:23:39.200 matter what anybody thinks. All right now, Joe Biden, we 0:23:39.320 --> 0:23:42.920 told you he did sweep all seven presidential primaries. In addition, 0:23:43.440 --> 0:23:45.960 and that was no surprise. Obviously, there's nobody that we 0:23:46.040 --> 0:23:49.760 know that's running against him that's gonna make him not sweep. 0:23:50.119 --> 0:23:52.880 But you know, we do have more elections happening next 0:23:52.920 --> 0:23:55.480 week on Tuesday, So we'll tell you what states that's 0:23:55.520 --> 0:23:57.320 going to be in, and we'll keep on making sure 0:23:57.359 --> 0:23:59.240 that people do vote. And if you're not wretched to 0:23:59.280 --> 0:24:01.560 to vote, make sure you're a registered to vote. Make 0:24:01.600 --> 0:24:04.399 sure you feel that your sentence form. But Joe Biden 0:24:04.560 --> 0:24:06.880 was talking yesterday in Philadelphia and he was talking about 0:24:06.920 --> 0:24:10.720 police reform a down payment. I want a long overduce. 0:24:10.720 --> 0:24:13.480 Should come now, should come immediately. I call on the 0:24:13.560 --> 0:24:16.399 Congress to act this month my measures that will be 0:24:16.520 --> 0:24:19.679 the first step in this direction, starting with real police reform. 0:24:19.800 --> 0:24:23.760 Congress from Jefferies has a bill to outlaw chokeholes. There 0:24:23.800 --> 0:24:26.240 are other measures to stop transferring weapons of war the 0:24:26.280 --> 0:24:30.239 police forces, improve oversighting accountability, to create a model use 0:24:30.280 --> 0:24:32.800 of force standard. Looking ahead, in the first one hundred 0:24:32.880 --> 0:24:35.639 days of my presidency, I've committed to creating a National 0:24:35.720 --> 0:24:39.920 Police Oversight Commission. I've long believe we need real community policing. 0:24:40.320 --> 0:24:42.159 We all need to take a hard look at the 0:24:42.240 --> 0:24:47.600 culture that allows for the senseless tragedies to keep happening. Listen, 0:24:47.720 --> 0:24:50.000 Joe said all the right things yesterday in Philadelphia, and 0:24:50.119 --> 0:24:53.560 we need him to keep making policy commitments like that publicly, 0:24:53.600 --> 0:24:56.240 because voting will not change things unless the people we 0:24:56.400 --> 0:24:59.320 put in want to change them. This white supremacist system 0:24:59.640 --> 0:25:02.639 is by design, Okay. The whole function of systemic racism 0:25:02.720 --> 0:25:04.840 is the marginalized black people. And it's very hard to 0:25:04.880 --> 0:25:07.080 get any old white man to change the system has 0:25:07.160 --> 0:25:09.199 been working for him and his family for years. So, yes, 0:25:09.280 --> 0:25:11.680 the only way systemic racism will be dismantled if the 0:25:11.720 --> 0:25:14.119 people who benefit from it wanted this mantledge. So I'm 0:25:14.160 --> 0:25:16.560 glad he was talking about this manlest systemic racism. I'm 0:25:16.560 --> 0:25:20.280 glad he's talking about economic justice investments into the black community. 0:25:20.440 --> 0:25:22.200 That's the only way he's going in Because I keep 0:25:22.200 --> 0:25:24.399 standing over and over, if Jeff k was president, Obama, 0:25:24.760 --> 0:25:27.879 Biden has to be Lyndon B. Johnson. That's it. And 0:25:27.960 --> 0:25:31.919 shout out to Congressman Jeffries. Shout out to Congressman Jeffries, 0:25:31.960 --> 0:25:34.200 who he actually referenced when he talks about outlawing the 0:25:34.440 --> 0:25:37.400 outlawing the chokehold. That is actually my congressman who represents 0:25:37.440 --> 0:25:39.720 my district here in Brooklyn. And you know on Judas 0:25:41.200 --> 0:25:43.200 elections are here in New York City. But yes, I 0:25:43.320 --> 0:25:47.480 love if that Clark in Brooklyn. I love Hakim Jeffrey. 0:25:47.600 --> 0:25:49.920 So make sure we support that. Now. Bank of America 0:25:50.000 --> 0:25:53.640 has committed one billion dollars to help combat racial inequality. 0:25:54.119 --> 0:25:56.400 It is the nation's second largest bank, and what they're 0:25:56.400 --> 0:25:59.560 saying is that one billion dollars will benefit communities of 0:25:59.640 --> 0:26:01.960 color over the next four years. The money will go 0:26:02.000 --> 0:26:05.520 toward a number of different areas like employee recruitments, job training, 0:26:05.680 --> 0:26:08.960 support to small businesses, housing aid, and the expansion of 0:26:09.000 --> 0:26:13.040 health services like vaccination clinics. So according to the CEO, 0:26:13.240 --> 0:26:16.800 he said, underlying economic and social disparities that exists have 0:26:16.880 --> 0:26:20.840 accelerated and intensified during the global pandemic. The events of 0:26:20.920 --> 0:26:24.000 the past week have created a sense of true urgency 0:26:24.320 --> 0:26:27.200 that has arisen across our nation, particularly in view of 0:26:27.240 --> 0:26:29.680 the racial injustices we have seen in the communities where 0:26:29.720 --> 0:26:32.320 we work and live. We all need to do more right, 0:26:32.560 --> 0:26:37.520 and I would say you have to keep Yeah. Now 0:26:37.560 --> 0:26:39.280 we're gonna say I was gonna say this with Bank 0:26:39.320 --> 0:26:42.000 of America too. Bank of America changed the policy that 0:26:42.160 --> 0:26:45.200 really affects a lot of small business owners Bank of America, 0:26:45.200 --> 0:26:46.879 because a lot of small business owners been hitting me 0:26:46.880 --> 0:26:49.760 about this. Bank of America. Usually, if you write somebody 0:26:49.760 --> 0:26:52.040 a check, it would usually clear from three to five days, 0:26:52.359 --> 0:26:54.920 but now the checks are clearing in ten to twelve days, 0:26:54.960 --> 0:26:56.520 which is a problem for a lot of small business 0:26:56.560 --> 0:26:58.600 owners because if you write somebody a check, they can't 0:26:58.600 --> 0:27:00.399 get that money for ten to twelve day, which is 0:27:00.440 --> 0:27:02.880 a problem. A lot of business owners are leaving Bank 0:27:02.920 --> 0:27:05.119 of America because they can't wait twelve days for a 0:27:05.240 --> 0:27:08.120 check to clear. That's affecting a lot of mone arted businesses. 0:27:08.359 --> 0:27:09.800 I want to say that to a Bank of America. 0:27:09.800 --> 0:27:11.480 I hope somebody's listening, because they gotta change that. It 0:27:11.520 --> 0:27:13.960 wasn't always because we actually use Bank of America for 0:27:14.080 --> 0:27:16.080 juice for life. I use it for a lot of myself. 0:27:16.080 --> 0:27:18.800 I too, but but I'm gonna change it. Well, I'm 0:27:18.840 --> 0:27:20.920 glad they put up that billion dollars for you know, 0:27:21.640 --> 0:27:24.280 racial justice, because we gotta keep pushing America to atone 0:27:24.280 --> 0:27:26.960 for his original sin, which is slavery, and the only 0:27:27.040 --> 0:27:29.920 way to heal is through legislation and reparations. Just the 0:27:30.000 --> 0:27:33.280 black community needs an economic justice package. We need that bag, 0:27:33.480 --> 0:27:36.119 and we're gonna get it. Okay. That's that's why I 0:27:36.160 --> 0:27:40.520 just keep telling people, don't be afraid to make demands. Right, 0:27:40.840 --> 0:27:46.600 what's your votes? All? Right? Well I am um Angela. Yeah, 0:27:46.600 --> 0:27:48.600 and that is your front page news? Did you get 0:27:48.600 --> 0:27:51.600 your name? Would you have to think about that because 0:27:52.600 --> 0:27:54.560 Bank of it. I'm looking at Think of America right 0:27:54.600 --> 0:27:56.960 now and I was like trying to see about what 0:27:57.080 --> 0:27:59.320 they do because that was you know, a concern. But 0:27:59.400 --> 0:28:01.639 we don't ever checks anymore anyway, because we just do 0:28:01.760 --> 0:28:04.440 everything electronically. Yeah, but for some people, like if you 0:28:04.480 --> 0:28:06.040 write checks to people to get a receipt. A lot 0:28:06.080 --> 0:28:08.000 of small business own owners were telling me that Bank 0:28:08.000 --> 0:28:11.520 America the checks Claire and tended business days seven to 0:28:11.600 --> 0:28:13.440 ten business days, but before it was three to five. 0:28:13.520 --> 0:28:17.280 But anyway, up next Kurt Franklin movie joining us. We'll 0:28:17.320 --> 0:28:19.480 kick it with Kurt Franklin, So don't move. It's the 0:28:19.560 --> 0:28:25.840 Breakfast Club the Morning, the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is 0:28:25.880 --> 0:28:29.359 tj Envy, Angela Yee, Charlotte and the guy. We are 0:28:29.440 --> 0:28:31.920 the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest on the line, 0:28:32.320 --> 0:28:36.200 the brother Kurt Franklin or some beautiful people mana Snana 0:28:36.280 --> 0:28:38.080 to be here. And I want to make sure, you know, 0:28:38.200 --> 0:28:40.360 if if I need to take this, you know, ben 0:28:40.440 --> 0:28:42.840 down off, you know, trying to come this morning with 0:28:42.840 --> 0:28:44.320 a look sauce. If I need to take it off, 0:28:44.400 --> 0:28:46.280 I'll take it off. You know. I like your Christian 0:28:46.320 --> 0:28:50.160 kryp vibes nice and it looks like you have a 0:28:50.240 --> 0:28:54.000 fresh haircut too. Can I see that line on the side. Yeah, yeah, 0:28:55.280 --> 0:29:04.840 about no, if I want to do. I watched you, 0:29:05.080 --> 0:29:07.560 I watched a good brother, Bishop td Jakes, I watched 0:29:07.600 --> 0:29:10.320 Fred Hammond all in the studio together with no damn 0:29:10.400 --> 0:29:13.080 mask on. I believe in God too, and I got 0:29:13.160 --> 0:29:16.320 favorite Corona is real where everybody that came into the 0:29:16.360 --> 0:29:18.960 studio we're taking tempts and it's very difficult to be 0:29:19.000 --> 0:29:21.800 able to speak to the people and communicate in an 0:29:21.840 --> 0:29:23.680 effective way when we're having to do it in the mask. 0:29:23.720 --> 0:29:25.200 So you know, we were doing the best we can, 0:29:25.320 --> 0:29:29.080 but for the sake of hope and encouraging the people, 0:29:29.640 --> 0:29:32.200 we put ourselves out there. Well, thank you so much 0:29:32.240 --> 0:29:34.760 for that Versus battle on Sunday. That was amazing and 0:29:34.840 --> 0:29:37.600 I think the timing wise, the timing couldn't have been 0:29:37.680 --> 0:29:40.640 any better at all because we all needed that. Man. No, 0:29:41.200 --> 0:29:43.440 I was very humble when Us Swiss and Tim hit me. 0:29:44.040 --> 0:29:46.160 It was something that I would never do in a 0:29:46.280 --> 0:29:49.040 normal situation now because I think the platform is not 0:29:49.120 --> 0:29:51.719 too produced. I just think that in you know, gospel 0:29:51.840 --> 0:29:54.480 music or Christian music, just because we talk about you know, 0:29:54.600 --> 0:29:57.760 someone bigger than us, you know, to try to say 0:29:57.840 --> 0:29:59.560 you know that the music God gave me a stupid 0:29:59.560 --> 0:30:01.760 than the music God gave you you know, and you 0:30:01.840 --> 0:30:04.680 know just kind of would have not always reflected what 0:30:04.840 --> 0:30:06.840 I think the biggest story is. But because we were 0:30:06.880 --> 0:30:09.280 able to do it for the people, and we were 0:30:09.320 --> 0:30:11.760 able to do it for something that had a bigger narrative, 0:30:12.400 --> 0:30:14.480 as I thought, it was a great moment. It wasn't 0:30:14.480 --> 0:30:16.680 a battle. We don't call it a battle. It's it's 0:30:16.720 --> 0:30:19.239 giving each other flowers. It's kind of wrapping each other 0:30:19.360 --> 0:30:21.800 and represent each other. So we I know, I know 0:30:21.880 --> 0:30:24.000 we call it the verses, but it's more like giving 0:30:24.240 --> 0:30:27.520 artists and producers and writers their flowers while they're here. 0:30:27.600 --> 0:30:30.040 And we definitely needed that one this weekend. Now, Kirk 0:30:30.120 --> 0:30:32.280 got sounds great, But who won? Who you think one? Now? 0:30:32.360 --> 0:30:38.080 Come on? He is? I hope that gospel music one. Then. 0:30:38.200 --> 0:30:40.800 I hope that gospel music look fresh. I hope that 0:30:40.920 --> 0:30:43.080 people you know, could you know, con see you know, 0:30:43.160 --> 0:30:44.920 just because when you look at all the genres of 0:30:45.040 --> 0:30:48.040 music that are curated by people of color, you know, 0:30:48.200 --> 0:30:49.880 a lot of times gospel music is one of the 0:30:49.960 --> 0:30:52.560 lord hanging fruits you're dig and so to be able 0:30:52.560 --> 0:30:56.120 to beyond that big platform, to be able to keep 0:30:56.160 --> 0:30:58.400 it a buck with people about you know, the hurting 0:30:58.480 --> 0:31:01.959 pain and to be able to see the entertaining DNA 0:31:02.080 --> 0:31:04.680 of gospel music as well. That was pretty for us, 0:31:04.840 --> 0:31:07.360 for us to be able to present that to culture. Now, 0:31:07.400 --> 0:31:09.239 what do you tell your people that that are your 0:31:09.320 --> 0:31:12.080 fans that follow you right now with everything that's going 0:31:12.120 --> 0:31:16.720 on from COVID nineteen coronavirus to the protest and what 0:31:16.840 --> 0:31:20.120 happened with George Floyd, what what are you telling your people? Is? 0:31:20.240 --> 0:31:24.200 I try to say that I don't understand everything that 0:31:24.400 --> 0:31:27.360 that that I we put those that weep and and 0:31:27.800 --> 0:31:30.280 and I'm warm with those who mourned. That that a 0:31:30.360 --> 0:31:33.760 lot of times it's not necessarily always stole about the 0:31:33.880 --> 0:31:36.240 scripture and every freaking thing. A lot of times you 0:31:36.320 --> 0:31:38.760 just gotta be talent and fill the pain with people. 0:31:39.080 --> 0:31:42.600 And when the opportunity permits itself, then you give them 0:31:42.680 --> 0:31:47.320 another narrative and another optic of what they can look like, 0:31:47.800 --> 0:31:49.800 and you do life with people. Man is. I think 0:31:49.960 --> 0:31:54.040 that what it's made this moment also divine as well 0:31:54.080 --> 0:31:56.720 as painful, is that we all on the same level. 0:31:57.240 --> 0:31:59.520 And so I just try to be on the front 0:31:59.600 --> 0:32:02.440 line in the middle of the struggle with my people. Man. 0:32:02.560 --> 0:32:05.120 One touching moment was you had Wander Cooper Jones, the 0:32:05.200 --> 0:32:07.480 mother of a mad Abery actually called in and that 0:32:07.680 --> 0:32:11.280 was a tear jerking moment for that to happen, but 0:32:11.400 --> 0:32:14.480 it was also inspirational as well, Thank you. And I 0:32:14.640 --> 0:32:16.840 was very intentional about that, like I hunted her down 0:32:16.960 --> 0:32:20.400 when when this versus situation came up, I was like, 0:32:20.840 --> 0:32:24.040 we need an element that can remind us. And you know, 0:32:24.200 --> 0:32:27.920 here's the unfortunate thing. We are having so many black 0:32:28.040 --> 0:32:32.160 soldiers fall during this Civil War that a lot of 0:32:32.200 --> 0:32:35.800 times you can forget the soldier before the soldier. Yeah, 0:32:35.880 --> 0:32:38.200 dig And so I just thought that it would be 0:32:38.640 --> 0:32:42.480 a very powerful moment for this beautiful queen to know 0:32:43.000 --> 0:32:46.320 that even in the midst of mister Floyd's suffering, that 0:32:46.640 --> 0:32:50.800 we also know that before mister Floyd was mister Aubrey. 0:32:50.920 --> 0:32:53.440 And so sometimes there's a mom I gonna imagine that 0:32:53.520 --> 0:32:56.880 you may forget that people move on from yours, and 0:32:57.000 --> 0:32:59.360 I want her to know that the pain is transferable, 0:33:00.040 --> 0:33:02.320 that we see you as well and we remember you, 0:33:02.720 --> 0:33:05.160 and we got you. You know, Kirk, you got a 0:33:05.240 --> 0:33:08.440 single called Strong God. And then it talks about racism 0:33:08.520 --> 0:33:11.360 and the human race needing healing did you have this 0:33:11.520 --> 0:33:14.120 song already made prior to the death of George Floyd 0:33:14.200 --> 0:33:16.760 or was just a result of his murder? Man? I 0:33:16.840 --> 0:33:19.200 wrote this song last year and I put it on 0:33:19.320 --> 0:33:21.840 the latest album Long Live Love, and had no idea 0:33:22.480 --> 0:33:24.640 that it would be an evergreen moment. But you know what, 0:33:24.760 --> 0:33:27.080 at the same time, you know, we've been in this 0:33:27.240 --> 0:33:30.280 state for many, many, many, many, many many years, and 0:33:30.400 --> 0:33:35.240 so these these topics, unfortunately, these topics are ever green. 0:33:35.480 --> 0:33:38.400 We should be writing new lyrics, which we should be 0:33:38.720 --> 0:33:42.320 having new conversation, but unfortunately we are always having to 0:33:43.520 --> 0:33:45.720 to open back up the same one. And so that 0:33:45.920 --> 0:33:48.800 is a problem. It's it's a problem for culture. It's 0:33:48.840 --> 0:33:53.040 a problem for Christianity, it's a problem for social injustice. 0:33:53.040 --> 0:33:56.240 It's a problem on the political scale. It's a problem 0:33:56.320 --> 0:33:59.880 socio economically, is that we're always having to regurg it 0:34:00.040 --> 0:34:03.600 take the same conversation, and that in itself can be deplorable. 0:34:03.960 --> 0:34:07.120 I saw you tweet on May twenty ninth, pain losers 0:34:07.200 --> 0:34:10.839 is hearing after centuries of broken promises, it becomes numb 0:34:10.960 --> 0:34:14.520 and death to anything except tangible change. You cannot love 0:34:14.680 --> 0:34:17.320 people and not be shook to your care by the 0:34:17.400 --> 0:34:21.759 optics against humanity helping. It's found it's found on that plete. Well, 0:34:21.800 --> 0:34:23.279 I don't know how I can spit any better than 0:34:23.320 --> 0:34:25.560 you did, you know, And and plus you got that 0:34:25.640 --> 0:34:30.239 Charlomagne tone, so you know kind of more powerful. Um 0:34:30.880 --> 0:34:33.960 that if we are are from the same origin, we 0:34:34.120 --> 0:34:37.799 are all from from the same dirt. You know, scientifically 0:34:37.880 --> 0:34:40.800 proven that we all come from the soil of Africa. 0:34:40.920 --> 0:34:44.480 So so we all have some type of genetic code 0:34:44.520 --> 0:34:47.080 inside of us that makes all of us humans. That's 0:34:47.120 --> 0:34:52.080 why we don't see animals cry when they kill each other, 0:34:52.200 --> 0:34:56.200 just because humans possess a soul that should be universal 0:34:57.040 --> 0:35:00.080 with somebody ax. And so when when you don't have 0:35:00.280 --> 0:35:05.600 sorrow in your heart, when humanity hurts, there is a 0:35:05.800 --> 0:35:09.759 deadening inside of your humanity. There is something inside of 0:35:09.840 --> 0:35:13.520 you that it's deceased. And I don't care how much 0:35:13.560 --> 0:35:15.880 you lift your hands or what God you pray to. 0:35:16.560 --> 0:35:22.399 And so if you conceive people suffering and screaming for help, 0:35:23.719 --> 0:35:26.520 if I was drown in Charlemagne, and if you drove 0:35:26.600 --> 0:35:28.399 by me, and if I was drowning in the lake, 0:35:28.880 --> 0:35:30.440 and if you pulled to the south of the lake, 0:35:30.520 --> 0:35:35.120 and if you started saying to me swim harder, battle 0:35:36.120 --> 0:35:38.400 doggiest out and if you took a book about how 0:35:38.480 --> 0:35:40.279 to swim and threw it at me in the water, 0:35:41.000 --> 0:35:42.960 in your mind, if you think that you're helping me, 0:35:43.160 --> 0:35:46.600 you've lost your mind. I'm drowning, as I don't need 0:35:46.640 --> 0:35:48.279 for you to pull over and throw a book at me, 0:35:48.520 --> 0:35:51.160 as I don't need for you to yell dogget pattle. 0:35:51.280 --> 0:35:53.040 I need for you to get your ass in that water, 0:35:53.600 --> 0:35:56.319 and I need for you to come swim because I've 0:35:56.360 --> 0:35:58.279 been drowning for a long time and I need for 0:35:58.320 --> 0:36:00.919 you to come getting me out of that water. Now, Kirk, 0:36:00.960 --> 0:36:04.520 I can't swim. Kirk, can you swim? I can swim. 0:36:04.640 --> 0:36:08.800 I'm a black man that can swim me too. You 0:36:08.880 --> 0:36:11.000 said doggy style. It's doggie pattle. I don't know what 0:36:11.080 --> 0:36:17.800 you're thinking about, but it's dog thinking about. It's not style, 0:36:18.920 --> 0:36:25.080 doggy battle. You tell your wife you're gonna lay hands 0:36:25.120 --> 0:36:30.759 on her. So, oh my gosh, h we got more 0:36:30.800 --> 0:36:32.879 with Kirk Franklin when we come back, don't move. It's 0:36:32.880 --> 0:36:37.280 the Breakfast Club. Good morning, p j Envy Angela Ye, Charlomagne, 0:36:37.320 --> 0:36:39.359 the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking 0:36:39.400 --> 0:36:42.040 it with Kirk Franklin, Charlomagne, what do you say to 0:36:42.160 --> 0:36:45.959 a lot of Christians who have received backlash for saying 0:36:46.040 --> 0:36:47.839 that we need to pray for the cops who are 0:36:47.960 --> 0:36:51.880 involved in George Floyd's murder. We need to forgive the cops. 0:36:51.960 --> 0:36:54.480 What are your thoughts on that? It's all the timing, 0:36:54.680 --> 0:36:56.640 It's it's someone like we need to say, then we 0:36:56.760 --> 0:36:58.160 need to say that we need to pray for the 0:36:58.280 --> 0:37:01.960 Roman soldiers to kill Jesus. They say that you need 0:37:02.040 --> 0:37:04.719 to pray for the man that shot doctor King, then 0:37:04.840 --> 0:37:08.920 say that, share it. And if you're gonna say it, 0:37:09.000 --> 0:37:13.560 saying loud. The Bible says, rejoice with those who rejoice them, 0:37:13.640 --> 0:37:16.160 mourn with those who mourned. Right now, we're in a 0:37:16.280 --> 0:37:21.120 mourning state, and mourn mourn, mourn with us. It makes 0:37:21.200 --> 0:37:24.759 Christianity duplicitness when you have those type of statements, and 0:37:24.880 --> 0:37:27.400 that's why people do not trust we are. We are 0:37:27.480 --> 0:37:30.600 already trying to deal with the narratives of the weaponized 0:37:30.719 --> 0:37:34.840 version of Western Christianity. They we've been dealing with for centuries, 0:37:35.000 --> 0:37:37.400 and so I'm just trying to rewrite that narrative. And 0:37:37.560 --> 0:37:40.600 so I'm not praying for anybody right now mourning with 0:37:40.719 --> 0:37:44.719 my brothers and sisters. And if a white Christians want 0:37:44.719 --> 0:37:46.880 to have that conversation now, then I think that they 0:37:46.960 --> 0:37:49.480 need to check their motives and intent. That's the first 0:37:49.480 --> 0:37:52.920 time I've ever heard that, you know, and really, people say, no, 0:37:53.040 --> 0:37:55.360 you gotta pray for the people as hurting you, and 0:37:55.480 --> 0:37:58.120 I always say I can't. I can't pray right now 0:37:58.160 --> 0:38:00.600 because I haven't. I haven't forgiven them yet. And that's 0:38:00.640 --> 0:38:02.480 the first time I've heard anybody say that. Used to 0:38:02.480 --> 0:38:04.400 people like, no, we have to pray. You know, the 0:38:04.480 --> 0:38:06.400 person that came in in and shot the people in 0:38:06.440 --> 0:38:07.960 the church. We have to pray for that young man. 0:38:08.000 --> 0:38:10.160 We forgive him. I can't forgive him because I'm still 0:38:10.200 --> 0:38:12.919 mourning now. Bother you if I think that this should 0:38:13.040 --> 0:38:16.520 row it when you have families right after the Charleston 0:38:16.680 --> 0:38:19.080 killing that say that we're going to pray for for 0:38:19.280 --> 0:38:24.080 this young white young man, how here rowing and how 0:38:24.520 --> 0:38:26.560 much I want to be like that. And I do 0:38:26.719 --> 0:38:30.200 believe that God allows in different periods of history those 0:38:30.320 --> 0:38:33.400 moments that we can try to aspire to, but it 0:38:33.480 --> 0:38:36.080 should not be a judgment against those that can't do 0:38:36.160 --> 0:38:37.960 it at that moment. Right, I'm gonna be honest with 0:38:38.040 --> 0:38:39.719 your Kraig. I don't believe them when they do that. 0:38:39.880 --> 0:38:42.040 Like I'm I'm from, I was born in Charleston, raised 0:38:42.080 --> 0:38:44.719 amongst Corner right next to Charleston. I don't believe them 0:38:44.719 --> 0:38:48.880 when they forgive that quick, like it's it's physically, emotionally, mentally, 0:38:49.040 --> 0:38:52.880 spiritually impossible to get to a place of forgiveness that fast. 0:38:53.120 --> 0:38:56.800 I don't believe. Well, you know what, bro that is 0:38:56.840 --> 0:39:01.880 that I can totally understand what you're saying that for 0:39:02.120 --> 0:39:05.480 your state and your mourning and your pain. But I 0:39:05.680 --> 0:39:09.200 do believe, in my humble opinion, this is my humble opinion, 0:39:09.880 --> 0:39:14.520 that there is a supernatural power that God can give 0:39:14.680 --> 0:39:19.960 corredit that king when her husband was martyred for the 0:39:20.080 --> 0:39:22.959 sake of freedom, that gives her the power to march 0:39:23.080 --> 0:39:27.640 and stand and to pray and to keep the narrative going. 0:39:27.960 --> 0:39:30.719 And I believe if I believe in God, then I 0:39:30.800 --> 0:39:34.120 gotta believe in a supernatural power that can supersede and 0:39:34.280 --> 0:39:39.319 even trump my human emotions and being. Now, there's no scientific, 0:39:40.280 --> 0:39:43.720 no scientific evidence for it, there's nothing tangible in any data. 0:39:44.040 --> 0:39:46.600 But that's what the spirits relieves think about it. Man. 0:39:46.680 --> 0:39:48.600 Just look at all the people. Look at all the 0:39:48.680 --> 0:39:51.319 health Black Booth been going through for censuries and still 0:39:51.400 --> 0:39:53.560 with some of the most powerful people from the planet. 0:39:53.840 --> 0:39:58.080 And when you look at that, I mean bro like 0:40:00.000 --> 0:40:02.480 and excited, there's keeping no cap right there. Look at 0:40:02.600 --> 0:40:05.359 all of the hell our four fathers and mothers went through. 0:40:05.600 --> 0:40:08.359 And you didn't hear a lot about suicide. You didn't 0:40:08.400 --> 0:40:10.080 hear a lot about people just ending it at all. 0:40:10.239 --> 0:40:14.279 You hear more about Listen, I great grandmama's and grandparents. 0:40:14.480 --> 0:40:16.600 They were not cashing out like we all right now, 0:40:17.200 --> 0:40:19.799 and they were going through some of the most demonic 0:40:20.760 --> 0:40:23.799 trauma and all the PTSD that a lot of them 0:40:23.920 --> 0:40:26.840 lived through. But they were still holding on, still believing 0:40:26.840 --> 0:40:28.520 that God was gonna make a way out of no way. 0:40:28.680 --> 0:40:31.279 And if they could have done it without the resources 0:40:31.320 --> 0:40:36.040 that they had during Jim Crown, then there's got to 0:40:36.080 --> 0:40:40.520 be supernatural power that we cannot explain, right, just how 0:40:40.560 --> 0:40:43.680 people grieve differently at some points. For people, their faith 0:40:43.800 --> 0:40:45.759 is what we'll get them through certain things, and that 0:40:45.920 --> 0:40:49.759 might mean prayer and forgiveness because that helps you as 0:40:49.800 --> 0:40:53.040 a person to go on, while at the same time 0:40:53.200 --> 0:40:56.719 I can also co signed Charlemagne and anybody else that 0:40:56.920 --> 0:40:59.680 if you're not there, we need to not judge people 0:40:59.719 --> 0:41:02.719 that they not fair. It say not there, man less, 0:41:02.880 --> 0:41:04.840 mourn with them. That's what I'm saying, that there's a 0:41:04.920 --> 0:41:08.399 duality that we can be both. I always ask people, 0:41:08.480 --> 0:41:10.880 you know, at times like this, you know a lot 0:41:10.960 --> 0:41:13.719 of times people are trying to to to get their 0:41:13.800 --> 0:41:16.560 faith and losing faith a little bit, you know, from 0:41:16.640 --> 0:41:19.960 COVID nineteen to coronavirus. Then people open up their their 0:41:20.000 --> 0:41:23.120 small business and then their business gets looted. You what 0:41:23.200 --> 0:41:26.480 do you tell those individuals? First of all, incredible question. 0:41:26.920 --> 0:41:29.400 And I think that it's very important to say to 0:41:29.560 --> 0:41:32.440 people that I don't have all the answers. One of 0:41:32.680 --> 0:41:35.240 one of the most prolific statements that you can sometimes 0:41:35.280 --> 0:41:38.480 say is I don't know, but I do want to 0:41:38.520 --> 0:41:42.000 say this what I don't know, that's not cancel out 0:41:42.360 --> 0:41:44.800 what I do know, And so what I do know 0:41:45.239 --> 0:41:47.720 still has a validity in the midst of the battle. 0:41:47.840 --> 0:41:50.160 And I can say to people that I was abandoned 0:41:50.239 --> 0:41:52.279 as a child. I was adopted at the age of 0:41:52.360 --> 0:41:55.080 four by six to four year old woman. I heard 0:41:55.120 --> 0:41:58.080 my biological mother tell that lady I at thirteen. Shit 0:41:58.200 --> 0:42:00.560 visited once. Instead. I didn't even want him. I wouldn't 0:42:00.560 --> 0:42:03.040 in an abortion, and you wouldn't let me. My father 0:42:03.160 --> 0:42:05.319 did one thing for me, gave me a haircut when 0:42:05.520 --> 0:42:08.000 his father died for the funeral. Never did anything else 0:42:08.040 --> 0:42:10.800 for me. I had ADHD. Kids laughed at me because 0:42:10.800 --> 0:42:13.120 I was a church boy. I dropped out of high school. 0:42:13.200 --> 0:42:15.080 I had learning to sort. I got a kid when 0:42:15.120 --> 0:42:18.040 I was seventeen. The church keeped me out. I found 0:42:18.080 --> 0:42:21.000 that same lady that adopted me dead and asleep, and 0:42:21.360 --> 0:42:25.000 I remember going to the pawn shop cash him, trying 0:42:25.040 --> 0:42:27.400 to pawn her wedding ring that she left to me 0:42:27.640 --> 0:42:29.920 because I was hungry living in her house that was 0:42:29.960 --> 0:42:32.759 not full of rats. And so how can you take 0:42:33.040 --> 0:42:38.360 somebody like me with no education. I'm vertically shalling. I 0:42:38.520 --> 0:42:44.080 can't saying, and my career has lasted for over three decades. 0:42:45.400 --> 0:42:48.120 It's not because I'm a dopist. There are so many 0:42:48.239 --> 0:42:50.759 people that are great and better than me. It is 0:42:50.960 --> 0:42:54.399 only the greatest and testimonial Christ. And so I try 0:42:54.480 --> 0:42:55.960 to let people know that if he can did that, 0:42:56.600 --> 0:42:59.000 if he can do that for me, he can do 0:42:59.160 --> 0:43:02.520 that for you. Hey, Kirk is a fellow vertically challenged man. Um, 0:43:02.560 --> 0:43:04.800 it's not like you're playing basketball. Okay, So let's not 0:43:05.360 --> 0:43:08.239 let's not act like okay, let's not act like the 0:43:08.320 --> 0:43:10.560 height has a real factor in anything that you're doing. Okay, 0:43:11.880 --> 0:43:13.839 thank you, brother. I want to talk about strong God 0:43:13.880 --> 0:43:18.319 because you said until lives matter more than ties matter. WHOA, 0:43:18.480 --> 0:43:19.640 let me here, let me let me hear you did 0:43:19.680 --> 0:43:22.439 some of these paths making all this money. Uh yeah, 0:43:22.560 --> 0:43:26.520 you know. Um, once again, there are brothers and sisters 0:43:26.600 --> 0:43:29.719 that are in the battle that don't always reflect what 0:43:30.680 --> 0:43:32.640 the battle should look like. You know, even if you 0:43:32.760 --> 0:43:35.880 have a president that is walking in front of a 0:43:35.960 --> 0:43:38.440 church yesterday holding up a Bible where you know, he 0:43:38.560 --> 0:43:41.040 must ain't read Sums one nineteen, you know, because some 0:43:41.360 --> 0:43:44.239 my chief says, hide thy word in thy heart, not 0:43:44.440 --> 0:43:48.880 hold my word in thy hands, you know, and so 0:43:49.880 --> 0:43:53.240 so so so there are a lot of hypocritical images 0:43:53.640 --> 0:43:56.560 in every community. And so that's why you try to 0:43:56.640 --> 0:43:59.880 see me be very verbal about the mistakes of Christianity, 0:44:00.280 --> 0:44:04.520 the sins of Christianity. And so I can co sign 0:44:04.640 --> 0:44:09.279 with that, I can concur and so and so. But 0:44:09.440 --> 0:44:11.600 it does not mean that there are the man and 0:44:11.680 --> 0:44:15.920 women that have not been transformed by the incredible eternal 0:44:16.040 --> 0:44:18.920 message of the Gospel. Jump through sixteen. For God so 0:44:19.120 --> 0:44:21.399 loved the world that he gave his only son. These 0:44:21.440 --> 0:44:25.279 are messages, and so when people make money and make 0:44:25.400 --> 0:44:29.560 God a lottery, then they are missing the divine purpose 0:44:29.719 --> 0:44:33.399 of why Christ will give his life for everybody. There's 0:44:33.440 --> 0:44:36.399 not a person on this planet that Jesus don't love. 0:44:36.800 --> 0:44:38.480 All Right, we got more with Kirk Franklin when we 0:44:38.600 --> 0:44:41.600 come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. 0:44:41.640 --> 0:44:45.680 Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlemagne, the guy we 0:44:45.760 --> 0:44:49.640 are the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Kirk Franklin. Ye, Kirk, 0:44:49.680 --> 0:44:51.480 while you're at home during this time, have you been 0:44:51.560 --> 0:44:54.480 inspired musically just by everything that's going on around you? 0:44:54.840 --> 0:44:57.359 You know, if I can be honest with you, one 0:44:57.400 --> 0:44:59.640 of the reasons why I wore this shirt today is 0:44:59.640 --> 0:45:02.000 because I started back going to therapy during this pandemic. 0:45:02.320 --> 0:45:04.600 I can now it's I've been going to therapy now 0:45:04.680 --> 0:45:06.960 off and on for about the last thirty years, you know, 0:45:07.080 --> 0:45:10.360 dealing with my just dealing with my band ament issues, 0:45:10.480 --> 0:45:12.520 dealing with you know, just a rejection I had as 0:45:12.560 --> 0:45:15.160 a kid a lot of the trauma that I've suffered 0:45:15.200 --> 0:45:17.560 as a young man, and so therapy and my faith 0:45:17.640 --> 0:45:20.080 have been my They've just been my life boat. And 0:45:20.160 --> 0:45:24.920 so the trauma of first of all the pandemic, and 0:45:25.040 --> 0:45:27.440 then now what's happening now is that I started going 0:45:27.480 --> 0:45:29.759 back to my therapist. And I can be honest and 0:45:29.840 --> 0:45:32.160 tell you that the motivation to do a lot of music, 0:45:34.120 --> 0:45:36.840 it's been often own just because I've been just really struggling. 0:45:36.960 --> 0:45:39.400 I've been really struggling trying to get people just to 0:45:39.520 --> 0:45:41.920 hold on. It's it's almost like where does the physician 0:45:42.000 --> 0:45:44.759 go when he's sick. You know, I'm getting myself back 0:45:44.800 --> 0:45:49.040 together just because I think that y'all needed Sunday, But 0:45:49.160 --> 0:45:53.120 I needed Sunday too. Is I needed that versus moment too? Now? 0:45:53.160 --> 0:45:54.839 What have you been going through? You said you were 0:45:54.840 --> 0:45:56.319 going through a lot, and I'm sure people are going 0:45:56.360 --> 0:45:57.920 through the same thing. What were you dealing with that 0:45:57.960 --> 0:45:59.279 you said, you know what, I gotta go see a 0:45:59.360 --> 0:46:02.520 therapist right now. I was an anxiety. What was it 0:46:02.640 --> 0:46:05.800 that you say I have to Yeah, yeah, well you 0:46:05.880 --> 0:46:08.759 know I've always struggled with anxiety. And then you know, 0:46:08.920 --> 0:46:11.440 just as a creative I think almost every creative and 0:46:11.560 --> 0:46:13.320 of course you're all three of y'all feel that's just 0:46:13.400 --> 0:46:17.759 because y'all are curators. And then the attention that y'all give, 0:46:17.840 --> 0:46:21.040 and the and and and just to grab the y'all platform, 0:46:21.400 --> 0:46:23.320 you know, to who much has given, much is required 0:46:23.360 --> 0:46:25.200 and a lot of times people don't know. And of 0:46:25.320 --> 0:46:27.560 course y'all can amand this when you live in the 0:46:27.640 --> 0:46:32.840 public eye, your highs and your loans are different, and 0:46:33.040 --> 0:46:35.160 so that type of pressure that you live up under, 0:46:35.520 --> 0:46:38.880 it's not realistic. So um, you know, just in the 0:46:39.000 --> 0:46:42.160 pressures of the world, or are people trusting that you 0:46:42.280 --> 0:46:44.680 always got to answer and that you're always having to 0:46:44.719 --> 0:46:48.440 be ready to give an answer? Um can be very discouraging, 0:46:48.520 --> 0:46:51.440 can be very heavy, and and and I carried the 0:46:51.560 --> 0:46:56.000 weight of people's hurt very real life bro Like no cap, 0:46:56.080 --> 0:46:59.040 I'm telling you, I would not be doing this music 0:46:59.520 --> 0:47:01.640 if I not believing the dude that I walk with. 0:47:02.239 --> 0:47:03.960 So it's like I gotta have somebody to be able 0:47:04.000 --> 0:47:05.759 to block this. Kim. I can't go to White Pep 0:47:06.000 --> 0:47:08.279 with that every day. You know, she made me to 0:47:08.360 --> 0:47:10.239 be strong with her. So it's like I gotta go 0:47:10.320 --> 0:47:13.359 to somebody who I can go. Man, these christens me off. 0:47:13.640 --> 0:47:16.120 It's like, man, somebody else got shot. Man, what do 0:47:16.239 --> 0:47:18.200 I do? Man? It's like people ain't working right now, 0:47:18.520 --> 0:47:20.239 you know. And I got a whole crew that I 0:47:20.280 --> 0:47:22.080 got to take care of. Man, you know, went to 0:47:22.280 --> 0:47:24.920 and so that type of pressure is I need somebody 0:47:25.000 --> 0:47:27.080 to pour into me so that when I get on 0:47:27.160 --> 0:47:29.920 these incredible platforms with y'all, I'll have something to be 0:47:29.960 --> 0:47:32.560 able to say absolutely, Hey, Kirk, you know what's so 0:47:32.760 --> 0:47:37.680 interesting man? Um. You know, prior to the quarantine, my 0:47:37.920 --> 0:47:40.360 therapist had been trying to tell me for the longest, 0:47:40.840 --> 0:47:44.279 let go of things that you can't control, you know 0:47:44.320 --> 0:47:46.680 what I mean? And I could never grasp that concept. 0:47:47.360 --> 0:47:50.560 Until the quarantine, we had never experienced anything like coronavirus. 0:47:50.640 --> 0:47:53.680 So you know what I did, I flipped it right it. 0:47:54.600 --> 0:47:58.680 I started leaning more into my faith side because I 0:47:58.719 --> 0:48:00.880 already had gotten what I needed from going to therapy 0:48:00.960 --> 0:48:03.000 all of those those those past these past a couple 0:48:03.000 --> 0:48:04.719 of years. I started leaning into my facetie. So it 0:48:04.840 --> 0:48:08.160 was more Bishop TD Jakes, more, Stephen Fredick more, Pastor 0:48:08.280 --> 0:48:10.799 John Graha More minutes to ferracon. You know what I mean, 0:48:11.280 --> 0:48:13.040 That is the job that I want you to be 0:48:13.080 --> 0:48:17.680 able to communicate to culture as well. Is that at 0:48:17.680 --> 0:48:20.440 the end of the day, you are spiritual beings. Is 0:48:20.480 --> 0:48:24.000 that if you live your life depending upon the natural 0:48:24.120 --> 0:48:27.000 world to be able to feel something that the natural 0:48:27.040 --> 0:48:29.480 world does not have the ingredients to do. That's why. 0:48:30.160 --> 0:48:32.200 That's why it don't matter how good sex has been 0:48:32.640 --> 0:48:34.279 for a lot of human beings, a lot of people 0:48:34.320 --> 0:48:36.880 don't stay with that same one. You're always looking for 0:48:37.040 --> 0:48:39.400 something different, no matter how much that drug made you 0:48:39.440 --> 0:48:41.839 feel at that moment. You're looking for the next high, 0:48:42.040 --> 0:48:45.160 just because the natural world can't speak to the depth 0:48:45.600 --> 0:48:48.720 of the crime of your soul. Your soul was created 0:48:48.800 --> 0:48:52.239 for something bigger that the human world is not able 0:48:52.239 --> 0:48:54.719 to be able to fulfill it with. And so that's 0:48:54.800 --> 0:48:57.480 why I'm always trying to That's why I'm always trying 0:48:57.520 --> 0:49:01.719 to be a messenger to clean up what a lot 0:49:01.800 --> 0:49:06.520 of the history of Christianity has messed up. Because Christianity 0:49:06.840 --> 0:49:14.080 and Jesus are not always synonymous. Explain a little bit well. 0:49:14.600 --> 0:49:17.839 Christianity is the form in which we brought to communicate 0:49:18.520 --> 0:49:21.720 what the teachings of Jesus is, or what the chiefing 0:49:21.760 --> 0:49:26.320 of Jesus was but in the sinfulness of man. Throughout 0:49:26.400 --> 0:49:30.000 the narrative of that historical context, there has been a 0:49:30.120 --> 0:49:34.360 lot of distraction. There's been a lot of abuse or power. 0:49:34.680 --> 0:49:37.520 There's been a lot of misuse of the statements of 0:49:37.600 --> 0:49:42.080 Jesus Christ. But that does not mean that the historic 0:49:42.440 --> 0:49:45.640 individual of Jesus Christ and what he stood for and 0:49:45.800 --> 0:49:49.880 for what he preached, it's always reflective in the actions historically, 0:49:50.080 --> 0:49:54.839 whether through the Crusades, whether through the Conquest, whether through 0:49:54.920 --> 0:49:59.840 Jim Crowe, whether through colonialism. Christianity was always leading in 0:50:00.080 --> 0:50:03.080 those narratives, and we've got to confess those sins in 0:50:03.280 --> 0:50:06.000 order to get it right. We've got to confess what's wrong. 0:50:06.480 --> 0:50:11.719 And so that's why I'm always an advocate for platforms 0:50:11.760 --> 0:50:16.200 like Apologetics to be able to communicate the historical, accurate 0:50:17.320 --> 0:50:20.680 narrative of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, as well as 0:50:20.800 --> 0:50:25.440 pointing out the bull and the foolishness that Christianity historically 0:50:25.520 --> 0:50:29.200 has done. Absolutely, I got one last question question for 0:50:29.280 --> 0:50:31.960 brother Kirk. I was watching UM Bishop TV Jake's Sunday 0:50:32.000 --> 0:50:34.480 and this is a conversation that a lot of me 0:50:34.560 --> 0:50:37.279 and my folks have been having. Do you believe Kirk 0:50:37.360 --> 0:50:40.440 that we're in the end of times. You know, I 0:50:40.600 --> 0:50:44.200 think that a lot of people can be so enamored 0:50:44.280 --> 0:50:47.680 with the conversation of what does this mean versus what 0:50:47.880 --> 0:50:51.600 do we do? As I think that it's easier to 0:50:52.400 --> 0:50:56.520 try to figure out what's happening out there instead of 0:50:56.680 --> 0:50:58.880 looking at this moment to see what needs to be 0:50:59.000 --> 0:51:02.880 fixed in here? Does that make sense what I'm saying 0:51:03.719 --> 0:51:08.480 perfect sense? And so I would encourage people. I encourage 0:51:08.520 --> 0:51:11.520 people to stop trying to be so worried about where 0:51:11.600 --> 0:51:14.960 God is instead of trying to be more focused on 0:51:15.680 --> 0:51:22.759 it's God with me who thinks ll thank you now 0:51:24.239 --> 0:51:26.480 for us. And just so you know, I'll be praying 0:51:26.520 --> 0:51:30.520 for you as well as I know difficult times. Absolutely, 0:51:30.560 --> 0:51:33.919 you gotta leave us with a prayer. Though, brother, man, father, 0:51:34.200 --> 0:51:37.520 I uh man, don't even know what to say to 0:51:37.680 --> 0:51:40.799 you sometimes in the midst of this, because I don't 0:51:40.840 --> 0:51:45.160 always understand what your hand is doing. But I've come 0:51:45.200 --> 0:51:48.680 to understand that when I cannot trace your hand, that 0:51:48.840 --> 0:51:52.240 I can trust your heart and that I can also 0:51:52.400 --> 0:51:55.719 believe that when the world is out of control, that 0:51:55.840 --> 0:51:57.960 does not mean that you are still not in control. 0:51:58.840 --> 0:52:01.239 And I do want to say to your Father, if 0:52:01.280 --> 0:52:04.360 you've ever been trying to get our attention, you have 0:52:04.640 --> 0:52:09.680 our attention now. Whatever you want to say to us, Lord, 0:52:09.719 --> 0:52:12.400 we want to have hearts to hear. And I know 0:52:12.520 --> 0:52:16.120 that we come sometimes with our own biases, our own prejudices, 0:52:17.080 --> 0:52:20.360 our own ideals of who you are. But instead of 0:52:20.440 --> 0:52:22.000 us trying to make you out to be where we 0:52:22.120 --> 0:52:26.160 think you are, God, I'm asking you, by faith, show 0:52:26.320 --> 0:52:29.960 us who you are. Show us your face, let us 0:52:30.000 --> 0:52:34.400 see your hand, reveal yourself to us in this pandemic. 0:52:34.960 --> 0:52:42.040 Because we have two pandemics happening, three pandemics financially, socially, politically, spiritually, 0:52:42.320 --> 0:52:45.320 more than one just pandemic. They we're asking you to 0:52:45.440 --> 0:52:48.600 be the sovereign God that you are and hear the 0:52:48.800 --> 0:52:52.359 hearts of your people. And Lord, I know right now 0:52:52.480 --> 0:52:55.920 it is so difficult to trust because we are so 0:52:56.160 --> 0:52:59.520 broken and fragile. So God, I'm asking you right now 0:53:00.520 --> 0:53:05.400 have mercy. Have mercy on message and your name christ 0:53:05.480 --> 0:53:16.200 I pray, Amen, Amen, Man, thank you, thank you man. Yes, sir, 0:53:16.320 --> 0:53:18.959 all right, it's Kirk Franklin. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. 0:53:20.520 --> 0:53:29.880 It's just oh gosh, got guys, it's so today on 0:53:29.960 --> 0:53:31.880 the talk they've put out a teaser for what's going 0:53:31.960 --> 0:53:34.680 to be happening, and Eve is discussing how she has 0:53:34.680 --> 0:53:37.560 to have these very difficult and uncomfortable conversations right now 0:53:37.640 --> 0:53:39.879 because she is married to a white man. So here's 0:53:39.920 --> 0:53:43.560 what she said. I am in an interracial relationship. I 0:53:43.680 --> 0:53:48.880 am having some of the most difficult and uncocomfortable conversations 0:53:48.960 --> 0:53:52.360 I think I've ever had and vice versa with my husband. 0:53:52.680 --> 0:53:56.080 But at the same time, it's a beautiful thing because 0:53:56.440 --> 0:53:58.040 I don't know his life through his eyes. He doesn't 0:53:58.080 --> 0:53:59.759 know my life my eyes. All we can do is 0:54:00.160 --> 0:54:02.759 all he can do is try to understand and try 0:54:02.800 --> 0:54:06.239 to ask the questions, and he wants to understand. It's 0:54:06.280 --> 0:54:08.880 gonna be uncomfortable, but we have to be okay with 0:54:09.000 --> 0:54:11.360 being uncomfortable so that we can get to a solution. 0:54:11.719 --> 0:54:14.120 Is that what ll cooj was alluding to when he 0:54:14.280 --> 0:54:17.320 was saying, what did it by racial? No, I actually 0:54:17.360 --> 0:54:20.160 got a call about LL I believe. Don't quote me. 0:54:20.200 --> 0:54:23.879 I believe he has a step brother or that's half black, 0:54:23.920 --> 0:54:26.160 half white. I believe, And that's what he was referring to. 0:54:26.640 --> 0:54:29.239 I believe. Okay, oh okay. When he yelled, when he 0:54:29.360 --> 0:54:32.040 yelled out on Twitter. Imagine how people raising by racial 0:54:32.200 --> 0:54:35.719 children feel right now? This is crazy. So Eve was 0:54:35.760 --> 0:54:39.640 just having a conversation with her white husband. I get it. Yes, 0:54:40.040 --> 0:54:42.680 that shouldn't be an uncomfortable conversation though. It shouldn't be 0:54:42.760 --> 0:54:46.879 uncomfortable at all. It should be somebody listening and somebody teaching. Yeah. Yeah, 0:54:47.120 --> 0:54:49.960 but it is also okay to have uncomfortable conversations. I 0:54:50.040 --> 0:54:52.279 feel like that's fine, you know, because it might be 0:54:52.440 --> 0:54:55.080 something that I mean, it's a you know, right now, 0:54:55.360 --> 0:54:57.960 in this day and age and everything that's happening, some 0:54:58.120 --> 0:55:00.760 of those conversations might get a little heated, even amongst 0:55:00.880 --> 0:55:05.680 people who love each other. Yeah, just don't understand. Yeah, 0:55:05.719 --> 0:55:07.640 And it's not even a conversation about race. This is 0:55:07.719 --> 0:55:09.800 a conversation about humanity, you know what I'm saying. Like, 0:55:09.880 --> 0:55:12.319 there's no way a human being can watch that video 0:55:12.400 --> 0:55:15.640 or George Floyd and say, oh that's okay. If you 0:55:15.719 --> 0:55:17.480 don't feel a way about that, and then something's wrong 0:55:17.480 --> 0:55:20.120 with you. You don't got no soul. And you should 0:55:20.120 --> 0:55:22.600 always feel okay when you're in a space where you 0:55:22.640 --> 0:55:25.040 feel safe to be able to ask questions too, even 0:55:25.080 --> 0:55:28.600 those difficult questions. So like she said, you know, he 0:55:28.719 --> 0:55:31.160 sees life through his eyes. She sees life through her eyes. 0:55:31.280 --> 0:55:33.680 So they have to be able to discuss those things 0:55:34.280 --> 0:55:36.400 and trying. And she said, you know it's hard because 0:55:36.680 --> 0:55:40.160 she gets very emotional as well. So I can see 0:55:40.239 --> 0:55:44.040 why now. Killer Mike also hosted a virtual meeting with 0:55:44.160 --> 0:55:46.840 grassroots leaders and he was highlighting all the ways that 0:55:46.880 --> 0:55:50.759 they're working to address systemic racism.

Yep, what Killer 0:56:30.760 --> 0:56:34.160 Mike or Killer Mike is doing has been happening. Okay, 0:56:34.320 --> 0:56:36.839 that's that. That one just went public. But we all 0:56:36.920 --> 0:56:38.880 know Mike as a brother that always does the work. 0:56:38.920 --> 0:56:40.719 But I'm gonna tell y'all something. We don't need to 0:56:40.760 --> 0:56:43.120 be plotting and planning in front of the world. Let's 0:56:43.200 --> 0:56:45.120 let folks just see the work. They don't need to 0:56:45.160 --> 0:56:46.839 see how the food is being cooked. You get more 0:56:46.840 --> 0:56:50.040 accomplished that way. Sniper position, stay low, keep firing. And 0:56:50.120 --> 0:56:52.680 for all your brothers and sisters in the communities, don't 0:56:52.719 --> 0:56:55.120 wait on a celebrity to help you organize. Organize yourself. 0:56:55.239 --> 0:56:57.480 Don't wait on a celebrity to lead. You lead. You 0:56:57.640 --> 0:57:00.560 know your community better than better than any So clebrity done, 0:57:00.640 --> 0:57:04.000 so leave well. In Chicago, the mayor Lory Lightfoot has 0:57:04.000 --> 0:57:07.120 already announced new reform measures for police accountability and also 0:57:07.200 --> 0:57:09.640 a ten million dollar fund for businesses that have been 0:57:09.680 --> 0:57:12.759 harmed in recent days. So there's some new directives, and 0:57:12.920 --> 0:57:15.919 she says they're immediate necessary next steps like improved training 0:57:16.000 --> 0:57:19.560 for police officers, bringing in community leaders and members as teachers, 0:57:19.680 --> 0:57:22.560 offers to wellness programs so they can manage their own 0:57:22.600 --> 0:57:26.880 trauma and stress, mandatory training on crisis intervention and procedural 0:57:27.000 --> 0:57:29.400 justice for all officers, and a new recruit program for 0:57:29.480 --> 0:57:32.400 police community relations. So they said they're going to be 0:57:32.520 --> 0:57:35.640 implementing these measures within the next ninety days. So nobody 0:57:35.680 --> 0:57:37.840 can say that work is not getting done. I don't 0:57:37.880 --> 0:57:40.240 think that's true at all. Drop one a CLUDI bond 0:57:40.280 --> 0:57:42.000 for Lory Lightfoot. And you know what else that shows you, 0:57:42.160 --> 0:57:44.600 Lord Lightfoot is a black woman. She's a black woman 0:57:44.640 --> 0:57:49.600 who is in a position to do things that benefit 0:57:49.680 --> 0:57:52.160 the black community. She's not just a blackface in a 0:57:52.280 --> 0:57:55.040 high place. She's a black face that cares about black 0:57:55.120 --> 0:57:57.320 people in a high place, so she can make those 0:57:57.360 --> 0:57:59.160 type of things happen. That's how you just gent to 0:57:59.200 --> 0:58:01.920 white supremacy. And she's fed up and she doesn't give 0:58:01.920 --> 0:58:04.200 an f and she only cares about making sure what 0:58:04.720 --> 0:58:06.240 doing what's right. And I love it. I love that 0:58:06.720 --> 0:58:08.960 all right. And Keki Palmer also took to the streets 0:58:09.120 --> 0:58:12.520 yesterday and she was demanding justice for George Floyd.

She has announced that 0:59:42.480 --> 0:59:44.720 it's in the works right now. It's a mini documentary 0:59:44.800 --> 0:59:48.480 series about the Tulsa race massacre in nineteen twenty one. 0:59:49.040 --> 0:59:50.960 That's when the Greenwood District was known as a black 0:59:51.040 --> 0:59:53.360 wall Street, and that was because of the success of 0:59:53.400 --> 0:59:56.960 the three hundred African American owned businesses. She said, Black 0:59:57.000 --> 0:59:59.880 people from Tulsa have refused to let the Greenwood District 0:59:59.880 --> 1:00:02.080 ma secur be your race from history. I'm so inspired 1:00:02.120 --> 1:00:04.600 by their persistence to lift up the stories of what 1:00:04.720 --> 1:00:07.960 North Tulsa was before the massacre. So she's going to 1:00:08.000 --> 1:00:10.760 be telling that story. Yeah, I can't wait for that 1:00:10.880 --> 1:00:14.360 story to be told. Also, Dreamhampton is so much more 1:00:14.400 --> 1:00:16.680 than the Surviving Our Kelly director. I hate when people 1:00:16.760 --> 1:00:18.080 I mean, that's not your fault, ye, but I just 1:00:18.160 --> 1:00:21.160 hate when people label her that when they say Surviving 1:00:21.200 --> 1:00:23.280 Our Kelly director.

Donkey today for Wednesday, 1:01:20.800 --> 1:01:24.280 June third goes to LAPD Police Chief Michael Moore. Now, 1:01:24.360 --> 1:01:27.080 I don't know how I missed this, but this man 1:01:27.240 --> 1:01:29.840 has to get the credit he deserves for being stupid. Today, 1:01:30.240 --> 1:01:35.000 Los Angeles Police Chief Michael Moore said that looters. Looters 1:01:35.680 --> 1:01:38.840 carry as much blame for the death of George Floyd 1:01:39.480 --> 1:01:42.720 as the Minneapolis police officers who actually killed him. I 1:01:42.920 --> 1:01:48.560 repeat LAPD Police Chief Michael Moore said that louders carry 1:01:48.600 --> 1:01:51.440 as much blame for the death of George George Floyd 1:01:51.680 --> 1:01:54.440 as the Minneapolis police officers who actually killed him. You 1:01:54.560 --> 1:01:57.720 can't make this kind of stuff up. Let's listen. We 1:01:57.800 --> 1:02:00.560 didn't have protests last night. We had the will acts, 1:02:01.000 --> 1:02:05.200 but then people mourning the death of this man, George Floyd. 1:02:05.680 --> 1:02:10.600 We had people capitalizing his death is on their hands 1:02:11.120 --> 1:02:13.600 as much as it is those officers. And that is 1:02:13.640 --> 1:02:17.280 a strong statement. But I must say that this civil 1:02:17.360 --> 1:02:19.960 unrest that we're in the midst of, we must turn 1:02:20.040 --> 1:02:24.480 a corner from people who are who are involved in violence. 1:02:25.240 --> 1:02:29.120 I am a business owner and Angelie is a business owner. 1:02:29.240 --> 1:02:31.240 Djm vy as a business owner. As much as I 1:02:31.400 --> 1:02:35.680 don't like seeing people's businesses destroyed, not once has watching 1:02:35.760 --> 1:02:39.880 buildings get destroyed. Not once is watching buildings get set 1:02:40.000 --> 1:02:43.840 on fire traumatized me in any way. I've never gotten 1:02:43.880 --> 1:02:47.080 a panic attack watching the Rolex store get broken into. 1:02:47.600 --> 1:02:51.280 Not once. If I gotten heart papeltations watching folks steal 1:02:51.360 --> 1:02:54.080 some vans. You know why, because I know all that 1:02:54.240 --> 1:02:57.600 material stuff can be replaced, buildings can be repaired, but 1:02:57.760 --> 1:03:00.360 you know it can't be replaced once just stolen from you. 1:03:01.040 --> 1:03:04.440 You guessed it your life for one thousand alex okay. 1:03:04.720 --> 1:03:07.800 Statements like the one LAPD Police Chief Michael Moore made 1:03:07.840 --> 1:03:10.760 are the sole reason there is a Black Lives Matter movie, 1:03:10.920 --> 1:03:13.280 because we have to keep saying it over and over 1:03:13.440 --> 1:03:16.080 and over again in the hopes that you may finally 1:03:16.240 --> 1:03:20.720 understand that black lives do indeed matter, Because, as you 1:03:20.800 --> 1:03:24.640 can see, when looters are being compared to murderers, then 1:03:24.760 --> 1:03:27.720 that means that this full LAPD Police chief Michael Moore 1:03:27.840 --> 1:03:30.760 thinks buildings and black people are on the same level. 1:03:31.800 --> 1:03:34.520 Not to mention, have you ever heard of cause and effect? 1:03:34.600 --> 1:03:40.080 There was no looting, protesting, rioting before George Floyd's murder 1:03:40.360 --> 1:03:42.760 at the hands of the police in Minneapolis. So how 1:03:42.840 --> 1:03:46.320 in the hell did the looters have anything to do 1:03:46.440 --> 1:03:51.560 with George Floyd's death? It isn't okay. One has absolutely 1:03:51.680 --> 1:03:54.160 nothing to do with the other. The only other thing 1:03:54.280 --> 1:03:57.080 contributing to the looting in America is the fact that 1:03:57.240 --> 1:04:02.080 the celebrity in chief, your president, to handle the coronavirus pandemic. Well, 1:04:02.400 --> 1:04:05.240 so forty million people ended up out of work, largest 1:04:05.320 --> 1:04:09.560 unemployment rate since the Great Depression, era, poverty, lack of resources, 1:04:09.680 --> 1:04:13.920 no money, bag stopping. Okay, being broke is what leads 1:04:13.960 --> 1:04:16.760 to looting. You know whose fault that is the president. 1:04:17.520 --> 1:04:19.800 The President should carry as much blamed for the looting 1:04:20.080 --> 1:04:23.720 as the looters because he made this economic mess. Period. 1:04:23.920 --> 1:04:27.200 Now I know what LAPD Police Chief Michael Moore said, 1:04:27.320 --> 1:04:31.800 pished you off. I'm sure it angered you. Well. The 1:04:31.960 --> 1:04:35.440 LAPD had his own meeting. There was a police commission 1:04:35.880 --> 1:04:40.040 that met in wake of all the regional unrests going 1:04:40.120 --> 1:04:43.680 on in the city. And I don't know why this man, 1:04:43.840 --> 1:04:47.040 Jeremy Frisch got invited. I don't know if he hacked 1:04:47.080 --> 1:04:50.880 the system. But Jeremy Frisch got through, and I'm glad 1:04:50.920 --> 1:04:53.800 he did. He had some words for LAPD Police Chief 1:04:53.920 --> 1:04:57.520 Michael Moore drama. I want you to turn the music off. Okay, 1:04:57.520 --> 1:05:02.120 because I love a great read. This is a great read. Okay. 1:05:02.440 --> 1:05:05.560 On a scale of one to kaya talking to Trina, 1:05:05.960 --> 1:05:09.360 this one is about a seven or eight. Let's hear it.

Good morning, 1:07:30.360 --> 1:07:33.200 Good morning, Um, I just want to ask Angela, how 1:07:33.240 --> 1:07:36.560 do you cope with moving on from your first relationships? 1:07:37.000 --> 1:07:40.080 Like specifically, Like I'm a high school I'm a fresh 1:07:40.160 --> 1:07:42.400 out of high school students, and you know, I was 1:07:42.480 --> 1:07:46.160 dating this girl and we had like good chemistry, but 1:07:46.760 --> 1:07:49.360 life happened and college happened, and we have to go 1:07:49.440 --> 1:07:52.800 our separate ways, right and we're not really on speaking terms. 1:07:52.920 --> 1:07:55.520 And you know, I was always going to ask her, like, 1:07:56.320 --> 1:07:59.400 how do you cope? Okay, Well, so you're fresh out 1:07:59.440 --> 1:08:02.120 of high school. You guys broke up, and this is 1:08:02.120 --> 1:08:04.240 a really difficult time to be breaking up with somebody 1:08:04.240 --> 1:08:06.400 because I know a lot of us are social distancing. 1:08:06.480 --> 1:08:08.120 There's a lot of things in the world that we're 1:08:08.160 --> 1:08:10.680 dealing with at the same time. Why did you guys 1:08:10.720 --> 1:08:14.080 break up? It was nothing specific, really, it was just 1:08:14.280 --> 1:08:18.760 we have to take our different path in college, like 1:08:19.400 --> 1:08:21.720 out of date and you know, I was going to 1:08:21.840 --> 1:08:26.040 another country, you know, to spend time with my homeland 1:08:26.120 --> 1:08:29.080 and study there and we kind of lost touch over 1:08:29.120 --> 1:08:31.720 the years. And what's your homeland. I'm just curious where 1:08:31.720 --> 1:08:34.960 are you from. I'm from the Philippines, And okay, the 1:08:35.080 --> 1:08:37.640 girl I was dating, the girl was dating she's of 1:08:37.800 --> 1:08:43.599 Jamaican descent, and she's actually attending University of Virginia. Okay, 1:08:44.320 --> 1:08:46.560 well a few things here. First of all, I know 1:08:46.720 --> 1:08:48.799 sometimes people will say, oh, you guys are high school. 1:08:48.840 --> 1:08:51.920 It's peppy love. But there is, you know, definitely nothing 1:08:51.960 --> 1:08:53.880 wrong with you feeling heartbroken. Do you have any like 1:08:54.040 --> 1:08:57.240 physical chest pains you know that happens sometimes when people 1:08:57.240 --> 1:09:00.439 go through a breakup. Not really, Like I guess it 1:09:00.560 --> 1:09:03.120 was kind of like a shock for me at first, 1:09:03.160 --> 1:09:06.479 Like I was having like you know, like depression like 1:09:06.600 --> 1:09:10.240 symptoms like I can't really focus properly, you know, like 1:09:11.080 --> 1:09:15.040 I would lose focus at times, and I lost like 1:09:15.320 --> 1:09:19.360 interest in some activities. But I did get some help. Okay, 1:09:20.320 --> 1:09:23.040 so you got you went to a therapist. Yeah, through 1:09:23.040 --> 1:09:26.000 a traditional therapist. You know. I started going to the gym, 1:09:26.760 --> 1:09:31.759 and I started having a more plant based diet. Okay. 1:09:31.800 --> 1:09:33.759 So those are positive things that you're doing for yourself 1:09:33.840 --> 1:09:35.720 to help you get through this heartbreak, because you don't 1:09:35.760 --> 1:09:37.720 want to lose sight of things that you need to 1:09:37.800 --> 1:09:39.639 do that's positive for you. And let me tell you something, 1:09:39.680 --> 1:09:43.040 It is perfectly normal to feel that way after a 1:09:43.120 --> 1:09:45.920 breakup and to miss somebody because clearly, you know you 1:09:46.000 --> 1:09:49.240 cared about this person, and so I think what's important 1:09:49.320 --> 1:09:50.800 right now is to make sure that you're in touch 1:09:50.880 --> 1:09:52.840 with friends and family and that they know what you're 1:09:52.840 --> 1:09:54.760 going through, and that you express yourself and that they're 1:09:54.800 --> 1:09:57.360 supportive of you. Do you have good friends and family 1:09:57.439 --> 1:10:02.519 around you? Yes? Absolutely, I keep wying. Okay, And then 1:10:02.640 --> 1:10:04.960 another thing, do you still follow her on social media? 1:10:04.960 --> 1:10:07.560 And do you guys still keep in contact? No, no, 1:10:08.640 --> 1:10:11.719 we don't keep in contact and follow her on social media? 1:10:12.800 --> 1:10:15.040 All right, So take your time. I think it feels 1:10:15.080 --> 1:10:17.000 to me like you've been doing a great job with 1:10:17.160 --> 1:10:20.160 coping and understanding that you are going through something and 1:10:20.960 --> 1:10:24.320 you're very aware, self aware. So it does just take time. 1:10:24.439 --> 1:10:26.799 And you know, they do say that time hills all wounds, 1:10:27.400 --> 1:10:29.640 and that is the truth. As the days go by, 1:10:29.720 --> 1:10:32.679 it feels like you've been feeling better about yourself. Yes, 1:10:33.920 --> 1:10:36.240 And you know, I kind of want to start going 1:10:36.320 --> 1:10:40.520 in on relationships again because I feel like I'm more experienced. 1:10:40.560 --> 1:10:42.920 You know, I learned a lot through that and I 1:10:43.000 --> 1:10:45.240 felt like, you know, like like you said, like we 1:10:45.320 --> 1:10:48.040 were young and you know, trying out new things, and 1:10:48.200 --> 1:10:51.680 you know, sometimes when things go less you kind of 1:10:51.680 --> 1:10:54.040 don't know how to handle it. You don't have any 1:10:55.000 --> 1:10:58.080 you know, coping mechanisms. So I felt like that taught 1:10:58.120 --> 1:11:00.360 me a lot. Well, that's good, and I think that's 1:11:00.400 --> 1:11:02.519 what we should take away from every relationship, even if 1:11:02.520 --> 1:11:04.360 it doesn't work out, you should be you should be 1:11:04.479 --> 1:11:06.800 learning from it so that in the next relationship that 1:11:06.920 --> 1:11:09.320 you're in, you'll be even more experienced. You know better, 1:11:09.439 --> 1:11:11.280 know yourself, better, know what you want in a partner, 1:11:11.320 --> 1:11:14.120 what you don't want in a partner. So you know, 1:11:14.240 --> 1:11:16.559 I think you're doing all the right and positive things. Jay, 1:11:17.000 --> 1:11:19.839 all right, thank you, Thank you so much, no problem. 1:11:19.960 --> 1:11:22.800 I wish you so much luck all right, ask ye 1:11:23.000 --> 1:11:25.280 eight hundred five eight five one oh five one if 1:11:25.320 --> 1:11:28.000 uni relationship advice to any type of advice Coler now 1:11:28.200 --> 1:11:31.880 was the breakfast Club.

This is Lisa? Hey, Lisa? 1:11:46.840 --> 1:11:50.280 What's your question for ye? Hi? Um? So our questions 1:11:50.360 --> 1:11:53.960 for you? First of all, you guys a collective lydy 1:11:54.120 --> 1:11:56.679 Uncle Charlotte as you and Houston had a book signing. 1:11:57.120 --> 1:12:01.240 So I love you guys. Um Antela, yeh. Question My 1:12:01.400 --> 1:12:07.120 question is, Um, yesterday I found out about the march 1:12:07.320 --> 1:12:11.080 in Houston. Um. I lived in Houston for about ten years, 1:12:11.160 --> 1:12:15.160 and so I just moved. And I told my boss 1:12:15.280 --> 1:12:17.519 that bar I was writing an email and I'm like 1:12:18.120 --> 1:12:20.200 a first of fun teller. Then I erased it and 1:12:20.320 --> 1:12:22.800 I just said I had an appointment. Um, I went 1:12:22.920 --> 1:12:25.479 to the market. I feel so much better. I've been 1:12:25.600 --> 1:12:29.000 just playing my role, doing what I can to make 1:12:29.040 --> 1:12:31.120 a change. And so now I'm on my way back 1:12:31.200 --> 1:12:33.920 to work. Out of my kids in my car their sleeves, um, 1:12:34.280 --> 1:12:39.280 and and I just I want to tell her because 1:12:39.280 --> 1:12:41.080 I don't want to put in sick leaves, because I 1:12:41.120 --> 1:12:43.640 need to take a pathnic leaves. Um. So I do 1:12:43.760 --> 1:12:46.439 want to put in like maybe cam time or and 1:12:46.600 --> 1:12:48.600 I do just want to have that conversation because I 1:12:48.640 --> 1:12:52.880 went from Houston working with all black people, works all 1:12:53.040 --> 1:12:56.200 black women as a now I'm in a different city 1:12:56.280 --> 1:12:59.439 and it's I'm the only black woman in the office, 1:12:59.680 --> 1:13:02.400 and I do want to have that conversation. I just 1:13:02.720 --> 1:13:05.240 don't really know what to do. Okay, well, this is 1:13:05.280 --> 1:13:07.800 what I would recommend. So number one, you said you 1:13:08.000 --> 1:13:10.439 had an appointment and you did, so, you didn't lie 1:13:10.479 --> 1:13:12.240 about that you had an appointment. You went to go 1:13:12.360 --> 1:13:15.400 to the rally and absolutely nothing wrong with that. In 1:13:15.600 --> 1:13:17.720 the state of what we're in right now, have they 1:13:17.800 --> 1:13:20.040 had discussions about these things at work, being that you're 1:13:20.080 --> 1:13:23.080 the only black person, No, we have not. I mean 1:13:23.200 --> 1:13:28.240 we've had discussions about rady something, but not recently, and 1:13:28.720 --> 1:13:31.519 you know what's going on. Do you feel your boss 1:13:31.640 --> 1:13:35.479 is open to having these discussions. I do. I do 1:13:35.680 --> 1:13:39.280 feel like say that he is. Okay, So I think 1:13:39.320 --> 1:13:42.479 a positive way to approach this, just because nothing's been 1:13:42.600 --> 1:13:46.240 done wrong here is for you to actually schedule an 1:13:46.240 --> 1:13:48.320 appointment to talk to her and let her know. Look, 1:13:48.560 --> 1:13:50.400 this has been weighing heavy on me obviously. You know 1:13:50.520 --> 1:13:52.640 this is my people in my community, and we are 1:13:52.680 --> 1:13:55.360 all being affected. So I think this is a great 1:13:55.400 --> 1:14:00.000 time for us to take the opportunity to have these discussions, 1:14:00.120 --> 1:14:03.080 even if they're uncomfortable discussions in the office, and we 1:14:03.360 --> 1:14:05.200 would love for us to schedule some time to do that. 1:14:05.280 --> 1:14:08.080 And I can't imagine that she would say no to 1:14:08.200 --> 1:14:10.280 something like that, and I think that you could be 1:14:10.360 --> 1:14:13.519 a great catalyst for that in the office. Okay, I 1:14:13.640 --> 1:14:17.280 think I have alfornity to schedule an appointment, but sir, 1:14:17.439 --> 1:14:20.240 I can definitely do that. Yeah. So, and I think 1:14:20.280 --> 1:14:22.720 that's really really dope. And another discussion you need to 1:14:22.800 --> 1:14:25.240 have is about diversity in your office just because you 1:14:25.400 --> 1:14:27.640 are the only black person and that seems like that 1:14:27.720 --> 1:14:29.920 could be an issue as well. And you know, I 1:14:30.040 --> 1:14:32.880 think we may have just hired and notified person. So 1:14:33.560 --> 1:14:36.160 I'm not sure she didn't quite say, but why she 1:14:36.320 --> 1:14:39.200 was alluding to it. I think it is so. I 1:14:39.320 --> 1:14:41.400 do think they're open, but I do want to have 1:14:41.600 --> 1:14:45.080 that open conversation as well. Yeah, now is the time 1:14:45.120 --> 1:14:48.240 to do it. And Lisa, how was the rally? It 1:14:48.479 --> 1:14:52.519 was great? It was positive, great energy. I brought my 1:14:52.640 --> 1:14:55.920 cousin the law, she brought her sister. It was it 1:14:56.080 --> 1:14:58.680 was a lot of people, it was hot, but the 1:14:58.960 --> 1:15:05.519 energy was great. I got some exercise in. So all right, 1:15:05.600 --> 1:15:07.840 she's breaking up. It sounds like it was much needed. Well, 1:15:08.080 --> 1:15:10.720 so much left to you, Lisa, and a good luck 1:15:10.800 --> 1:15:12.479 at work today. I feel like this is going to 1:15:12.520 --> 1:15:14.599 be a positive discussion for you to have in the office, 1:15:14.920 --> 1:15:17.720 I hope, so asking ye eight on DRID five eight 1:15:17.800 --> 1:15:19.840 five one on five one. If you need relationship advice 1:15:19.920 --> 1:15:22.479 and any type of advice, you could hit YEA any time. Now. 1:15:22.520 --> 1:15:24.400 We got rumors on the way, yes, and we're gonna 1:15:24.439 --> 1:15:26.599 give you an update from earlier. We were talking about 1:15:26.680 --> 1:15:30.760 this show Kimberly and Beck and that show is an 1:15:30.800 --> 1:15:33.880 iHeart show, or should I say was, and they said 1:15:33.960 --> 1:15:37.120 some very nasty and racist things yesterday, and so we 1:15:37.200 --> 1:15:39.720 are going to address what they said and then what 1:15:40.120 --> 1:15:42.680 was the repercussions from that? All right, we'll get into 1:15:42.720 --> 1:15:44.840 that next Keeping locked this the Breakfast Club. Good morning, 1:15:45.360 --> 1:15:57.960 the Breakfast Club. This is the rum of report with Angela. Yes. Now, 1:15:58.040 --> 1:16:00.439 we were telling you about this show and a Rochester, 1:16:00.560 --> 1:16:03.639 New York Kimberly and backed their radio show hosts. They 1:16:03.720 --> 1:16:07.360 also were part of iHeart Radio and apparently they have 1:16:07.520 --> 1:16:11.000 been fired already, according to the president of the Upstate 1:16:11.040 --> 1:16:14.400 New York market for iHeartMedia, Robert JA Morrigan, he said, 1:16:14.400 --> 1:16:16.719 we made the decision to terminate Kimberly and Back yesterday 1:16:16.720 --> 1:16:18.639 as soon as we learned of their comments and inform 1:16:18.720 --> 1:16:20.920 them early this morning. We will not tolerate this kind 1:16:20.960 --> 1:16:24.360 of behavior, which is uh, I can't say this word right, 1:16:24.400 --> 1:16:27.559 antithetical to our core values and beliefs and to our 1:16:27.560 --> 1:16:30.639 commitment to our community and everyone in it. So here 1:16:30.800 --> 1:16:33.400 was the discussion that they had after the attack of 1:16:33.479 --> 1:16:36.680 a local couple following the Black Lives Matter protest in 1:16:36.760 --> 1:16:41.760 downtown Rochester. Were they acting and word ish? There's your question. 1:16:41.840 --> 1:16:47.519 They were acting thuggarily like I think the N wordly. Yeah. 1:16:47.760 --> 1:16:50.760 And by the way, you can't say bad, what are 1:16:50.800 --> 1:16:56.719 you doing here? Problem? You know, it's not their fu show. 1:16:56.840 --> 1:16:58.599 If you look like a song and if you act 1:16:58.680 --> 1:17:01.200 like a soga you got read on one. And beating 1:17:01.280 --> 1:17:03.679 up a white woman with a two by four, by god, 1:17:03.720 --> 1:17:07.000 you're a thug. And by the way, there are people 1:17:07.120 --> 1:17:10.439 in the black community would say they're acting anyword, but 1:17:10.600 --> 1:17:13.519 they can say that. You can't say that it's double center. 1:17:13.760 --> 1:17:18.000 I was gonna say the double standard. Well, Kimberly, that's 1:17:18.000 --> 1:17:20.320 what you get for being white, Devili, that's what you 1:17:20.400 --> 1:17:25.600 get for cracker being. Being crackerly is a word I 1:17:25.760 --> 1:17:27.120 did just now, you know what I mean. I don't 1:17:27.120 --> 1:17:29.599 care how much you've heard to Chris Rock and words 1:17:29.680 --> 1:17:31.800 versus black people, joker, how much you've heard Uncle ruck 1:17:31.880 --> 1:17:34.880 and saying some heavy niggatry at work. You can't say 1:17:34.920 --> 1:17:36.560 that Kimberly. I don't care that you use it in 1:17:36.600 --> 1:17:40.680 the proper context. And that is also another reminder of 1:17:40.840 --> 1:17:43.479 why DJ Andvy when we first started the Breakfast Club 1:17:43.520 --> 1:17:45.840 putting his contract that he can't get fired over anything 1:17:45.880 --> 1:17:50.839 that I say. That is definitely true. They fired Kimberly 1:17:51.200 --> 1:17:54.680 and Beck. He trying to defend the producer was the 1:17:54.760 --> 1:17:56.360 one that was trying to tell them you can't say 1:17:56.439 --> 1:18:01.960 that I wasn't back oh that the producer. Now, let 1:18:02.040 --> 1:18:05.240 me just say this last I would have truly does 1:18:05.400 --> 1:18:08.280 yeah for whatever new show is coming, So at least 1:18:08.280 --> 1:18:10.840 they always remember they got fired on Blackout Tuesday though, 1:18:11.000 --> 1:18:17.000 So that's dope bombs for God.

Y G is a blessing to the coach. 1:19:11.200 --> 1:19:12.720 I don't give a damn with nobody say I saw 1:19:13.200 --> 1:19:15.160 somebody I was arguing with the other day telling me 1:19:15.240 --> 1:19:17.200 why G was whacked. I'm like, you got your damn mind. 1:19:18.680 --> 1:19:21.080 I forgot who I was debating without debating with somebody 1:19:21.080 --> 1:19:25.439 you don't want in a regular Negro conversation, who it was? Well, 1:19:26.160 --> 1:19:28.680 great part two. This is a great part two to 1:19:28.800 --> 1:19:31.560 his Collaba Nipsey Hustle f dt F Donald Trump. So 1:19:32.280 --> 1:19:36.439 you know I'm all right now, Leah Michelle had from 1:19:36.479 --> 1:19:39.200 Glee has had to apologize and she also lost her 1:19:39.280 --> 1:19:44.000 endorsement with Hello Fresh, and that is for her past behavior. Now. 1:19:44.640 --> 1:19:46.920 You know, she tweeted the other day in support of 1:19:47.000 --> 1:19:50.920 Black Lives Matter, and things went left. She had said 1:19:51.720 --> 1:19:54.479 that she was supporting George Floyd in the Black Lives 1:19:54.560 --> 1:19:57.840 Matter movement. But that's when one of her Glee co stars, 1:19:57.880 --> 1:20:00.960 Samantha Marie Ware, accused her of torment her on the 1:20:01.080 --> 1:20:05.040 set of Glee, and she said that she doesn't remember 1:20:05.479 --> 1:20:08.400 ever making specific statements. You know that it was said 1:20:08.400 --> 1:20:12.560 that she said. According to Samantha Ware, she said that 1:20:13.400 --> 1:20:16.160 Leah Michelle said, LMAO, remember when you made my first 1:20:16.200 --> 1:20:19.360 television gig a living hell, because I'll never forget. I 1:20:19.439 --> 1:20:22.360 believe you told everyone that if you had the opportunity, 1:20:22.479 --> 1:20:26.320 you would issh in my wig, amongst other traumatic microaggressions 1:20:26.360 --> 1:20:29.200 that made me question a career in Hollywood. So she 1:20:29.360 --> 1:20:33.479 was called out for her hypocrisy, and you know, things 1:20:33.600 --> 1:20:35.800 just spiraled from there. A lot of people were talking 1:20:35.840 --> 1:20:40.080 about their own experiences. Now Leah Michelle has apologized. She said, 1:20:40.120 --> 1:20:42.120 what matters is that I clearly acted in ways which 1:20:42.160 --> 1:20:44.560 hurt other people. One of the most important lessons of 1:20:44.600 --> 1:20:46.040 the last few weeks is that we need to take 1:20:46.080 --> 1:20:48.320 the time to listen and learn about other people's perspectives 1:20:48.360 --> 1:20:50.640 and any role we have played or anything we can 1:20:50.720 --> 1:20:53.200 do to help address the injustices that they faced. When 1:20:53.240 --> 1:20:54.720 I twitted the other day was meant to be a 1:20:54.760 --> 1:20:57.479 show of support, she said, Well, I don't remember ever 1:20:57.560 --> 1:20:59.880 making this specific statement, and I have never judged other 1:21:00.080 --> 1:21:01.960 by their background or color of their skin. That's not 1:21:02.080 --> 1:21:04.519 really the point. What matters is that I clearly acted 1:21:04.560 --> 1:21:07.520 in ways which hurt other people. So she did acknowledge 1:21:07.520 --> 1:21:10.599 it with her privileged position and perspective that caused her 1:21:10.640 --> 1:21:14.080 to be perceived as insensitive or inappropriate at times. All 1:21:14.160 --> 1:21:18.200 right now, following that, BT founder Robert Johnson is calling 1:21:18.320 --> 1:21:22.600 for fourteen trillion dollars in reparations from slavery, and he 1:21:22.640 --> 1:21:24.840 said he wants to send a signal to white Americans 1:21:24.880 --> 1:21:28.559 to acknowledge that damages are owed for the unequal playing 1:21:28.640 --> 1:21:31.360 field that has been created due to slavery. Here is 1:21:31.400 --> 1:21:35.320 what Robert Johnson said. I am convinced that the problems 1:21:35.360 --> 1:21:40.120 that we confront today can be solved, but it takes 1:21:40.520 --> 1:21:46.080 a big bone action and fourteen trillion dollars in reparation, 1:21:46.400 --> 1:21:52.800 but damages visit upon the airs of slaves is an 1:21:52.880 --> 1:21:57.840 appropriate statement. Listen, og, Bob not wrong. Nothing good gonna 1:21:57.840 --> 1:22:00.639 come to America and the atone for the city into slavery. 1:22:00.720 --> 1:22:04.320 So yes, America has to do that through legislation and reparations. 1:22:04.400 --> 1:22:08.120 The black community needs an economic justice package. America absolutely 1:22:08.200 --> 1:22:10.439 has the means to dedicate capital to the rebuilding of 1:22:10.520 --> 1:22:13.120 all communities. And that's just another step in the divine 1:22:13.160 --> 1:22:17.000 direction to dismantling white supremacy. I mean, they printed up 1:22:17.040 --> 1:22:19.200 the money last time. They printed up the money last 1:22:19.240 --> 1:22:21.240 time so they could print up the money. Now. Yeah, 1:22:21.280 --> 1:22:23.559 I talked to Bob hit me this week. We're gonna 1:22:23.560 --> 1:22:26.240 have Bob on tomorrow. Og Bob Johnson gonna he gonna gonna, 1:22:26.240 --> 1:22:29.479 He's gonna pull up on the breakfast club via zoom. 1:22:29.880 --> 1:22:31.920 Why are you wrapping yourself up in the towel like that? 1:22:32.560 --> 1:22:34.400 Because I'm called it's called in my basement for some 1:22:34.560 --> 1:22:37.680 reason this morning.

I bought my Bible into the scriptl 1:24:39.560 --> 1:24:42.600 Club one time in Columbia, South Carolina. I took my 1:24:42.720 --> 1:24:47.560 Bible in there. I actually recorded Why why well, I 1:24:47.600 --> 1:24:49.360 didn't record it. Somebody was recording me with it. I 1:24:49.400 --> 1:24:51.639 mean I took it in there just I was feeling 1:24:51.720 --> 1:24:55.320 the word, that's all. I'm sure scripts did not want 1:24:55.360 --> 1:24:58.519 they was running from them that that paper. I'm feel 1:24:58.520 --> 1:25:02.240 that's your census. Yet we've been did the sentence yeah 1:25:02.240 --> 1:25:03.920 a long time. That's want to make sure because some 1:25:03.960 --> 1:25:06.640 people still haven't done it and you still can. So 1:25:07.200 --> 1:25:08.840 that's why I'm asking if we did. A couple of 1:25:08.840 --> 1:25:11.599 months ago, I was posting from Evett Clark and UM 1:25:11.640 --> 1:25:13.920 in Flatbush where I'm from, only sixty five percent of 1:25:13.920 --> 1:25:15.560 the people they are filled out the census. So I 1:25:15.640 --> 1:25:17.719 just want to encourage people who have not yet filled 1:25:17.720 --> 1:25:21.680 out their senses, please make sure you do all right. 1:25:21.760 --> 1:25:24.519 Well when we come back. We got the positive notice 1:25:24.520 --> 1:25:28.759 to Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is stej Envy, 1:25:28.960 --> 1:25:35.759 Angela Yee. Charlomagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club now, Charlomagne. Yes, indeed, 1:25:36.160 --> 1:25:37.960 I've seen you on CNN last night too. I meant 1:25:37.960 --> 1:25:42.200 to tell you your own, but you always do when 1:25:42.200 --> 1:25:43.519 people say you hold your own, I'm like, there, he 1:25:43.560 --> 1:25:47.880 always hold his own. I was on Anderson Cooper's show 1:25:48.000 --> 1:25:50.880 last night with UM David actual Rod. If you know 1:25:50.880 --> 1:25:53.920 who David actual Rod is, he was the former senior 1:25:54.000 --> 1:25:56.679 advisor to President Barack Obama, and we were talking about 1:25:56.920 --> 1:25:59.840 Joe Biden's speech in Philadelphia and what Joe Biden needed 1:25:59.840 --> 1:26:02.679 to do moving forward to win the election in November. 1:26:02.760 --> 1:26:05.160 And you know my answers, because I've been screaming my 1:26:05.240 --> 1:26:07.360 answers on this radio for the past few months. He 1:26:07.479 --> 1:26:13.519 has to bet on blackness. And David Axelrod absolutely agreed. Yeah, absolutely, Well, 1:26:13.520 --> 1:26:16.320 you got a positive note for the people. I do. Man, 1:26:16.400 --> 1:26:18.320 This comes out of my Black Pearls book. I have 1:26:18.400 --> 1:26:21.320 a book called Black Pearls. It's daily meditations, affirmations, and 1:26:21.479 --> 1:26:27.560 inspirations for African Americans. And today's affirmation is encouragement. We 1:26:27.680 --> 1:26:30.320 can rarely expect ourselves and others to fall in line 1:26:30.320 --> 1:26:32.759 of the command. What we can do is encourage, motivate, 1:26:32.840 --> 1:26:35.200 and allow opportunities for the spirit to flourish. We need 1:26:35.280 --> 1:26:37.840 to show our children the world's possibilities, giving them a 1:26:37.960 --> 1:26:40.439 chance to become aware and excited about their own talents 1:26:40.439 --> 1:26:42.719 and interest. We need to give our loved ones time, 1:26:42.800 --> 1:26:45.160 spatient emotional support so they can get in touch with 1:26:45.240 --> 1:26:49.680 their passions excitement as contagious commands are a drag. So 1:26:49.840 --> 1:26:52.560 on this day, pledge to encourage and support friends and 1:26:52.760 --> 1:26:56.960 other black folks in their endeavors. Breakfast Club, you know 1:26:57.000 --> 1:26:58.080 I'm finish for y'all, dumb
