I 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:38.640 posted on my page last week there was a young 0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:41.920 man who I don't even know what kind of confrontation 0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:45.040 him and this young man was twenty one years old 0:03:46.680 --> 0:03:50.560 and the guy who you know, he allegedly shot was 0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:54.280 thirty two years of age. And you know, it seemed 0:03:54.280 --> 0:03:57.720 like there was probably a disagreement, just a little dollar. 0:03:57.800 --> 0:03:59.480 I don't know that the bad history or anything. 0:03:59.520 --> 0:04:02.080 All I know that the man was walking out and 0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:06.080 he was shot in his head. And you know, in 0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:08.960 no situations you don't know you how do you protect yourself? 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:11.560 How do you how do you think somebody thinks you 0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:14.960 get into a minor disagreement with somebody or just a 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:16.919 back and forth, that somebody's gonna shoot you in the 0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:18.800 back and shoot you in the back of your head 0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:20.400 and kill you. You know what I'm saying, Like you don't 0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:23.040 even know. So these kids are nervous. A lot of 0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:25.240 these young kids is nervous. They're like your people try 0:04:25.320 --> 0:04:27.640 to kill me. You know, you walk in you don't 0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:29.640 even know, people mistake you a sound if you don't 0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:31.640 got a gun or anything to get your well. 0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:35.279 So we're just dealing with really really serious times. 0:04:35.440 --> 0:04:41.080 Is mental health, you know, it's trauma, you know, it's poverty, 0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:44.280 you know, it's were still coming from the pandemic that 0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:47.560 the you know, the after effects of the pandemic and 0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:50.159 the remnants of the pandemic having left a lot of people, 0:04:50.640 --> 0:04:54.600 you know, a lot, especially with the amount of finances 0:04:54.640 --> 0:04:56.440 that was in the streets during the pandemic. 0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:59.760 Everybody had money. So now it's going back to be broken. 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:03.839 And that's trauma in itself to one day you got 0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:06.560 one hundred thousand and fifty thousand, and next thing, you know, 0:05:06.600 --> 0:05:09.280 you got five dollars and you can't even you know, 0:05:09.320 --> 0:05:10.440 you can't make ends meet. 0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:12.440 So it's just so much going on. 0:05:12.480 --> 0:05:15.719 So I'm just praying for him, hoping that you know, 0:05:15.800 --> 0:05:17.920 he stays strong and you know, we get through this. 0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:22.000 But it's tough, man, It's really tough doing this boycott 0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:25.920 Black Murder, you know, initiative, in nationwide campaign. 0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:29.080 I have to really dig into it. 0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:31.480 You know, when this work is not just I'm going 0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:34.040 on to do this where you start looking at doing 0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:36.320 the research and looking at the data and then look 0:05:36.360 --> 0:05:39.800 at the communities with that it really impacted, and you 0:05:39.880 --> 0:05:44.000 start noticing trends and you start realizing that then it 0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:48.479 ain't just bad people, it's bad situations. It's like you said, 0:05:48.480 --> 0:05:51.000 it's meantal health it's so many different things that lead 0:05:51.080 --> 0:05:53.040 up to it. Then some people are just scared. And 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:55.760 that's what my thing is about guns. If you give 0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:59.559 a scared person a gun, you don't know what could happen. 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:03.400 If you give somebody who's not mentally doesn't have the 0:06:03.440 --> 0:06:05.240 mental capacity to have a gun, you don't know what. 0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:09.039 So everybody, everybody, Yo, everybody, No, everybody shouldn't have guns. 0:06:09.320 --> 0:06:12.479 I'm not everybody. There's a couple of people that know 0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:15.400 if they have guns. If they had guns, they would 0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:18.400 have killed about ten people already. Everybody don't have that. 0:06:18.800 --> 0:06:20.760 Just think about some of these people that have road rage, 0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:23.240 but they don't have guns. Right when you see the 0:06:23.320 --> 0:06:25.679 road the road rage with the guns, you've seen dudes 0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:29.080 really shoot through their window while they driving because somebody 0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:31.880 almost cut them off and they shooting through the window trying. 0:06:31.680 --> 0:06:33.200 To kill people. Have killed people. 0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:36.560 So all of those type of people had guns, and 0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:39.280 every time something like that happened, they was able to 0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:42.400 respond and react, you know, based on the emotions and 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:44.880 the lack their control of their emotions they had. 0:06:45.440 --> 0:06:48.080 So you know, it's just it's just been it's been 0:06:48.080 --> 0:06:48.640 a tough week. 0:06:48.680 --> 0:06:51.479 It's been like a tough month dealing with this, but 0:06:52.520 --> 0:06:54.640 I'm faithful that God is gonna, you know, do what 0:06:54.680 --> 0:06:55.400 he's supposed to do. 0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:58.280 Yeah, hopefully that you know your nephew will be all 0:06:58.360 --> 0:07:02.040 right and whatever the certircumstances are gets worked out, and 0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:04.440 like you said, when you are able to go and 0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:08.440 visit him and really sit with him and understand his 0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:11.920 perspective and all of that, you know, hopefully it'll help 0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:16.080 you to think through how to help him because you know, legit, 0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:16.640 I don't. 0:07:16.480 --> 0:07:18.960 I don't know if he even had to do. 0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:20.800 I don't know anything, so I haven't really had a 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:23.320 conversation with but this is what you know, he's been 0:07:23.400 --> 0:07:23.920 arrested for. 0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:27.239 So you know, we just got to pray yep, yep, 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:31.040 and make sure he has the proper representation no matter 0:07:31.080 --> 0:07:34.080 which way it goes, because that's another problem across the nation. 0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:37.160 We see so many people falling victim and you have 0:07:37.360 --> 0:07:41.480 in the past to just not having the proper representation 0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:44.960 so that whatever they are, whatever circumstances and whatever their 0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:49.760 fate may be, that you believe someone was there representing 0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:53.760 them to the best of you know, of the of 0:07:53.840 --> 0:07:57.200 the type of representation that they should be. You know 0:07:57.440 --> 0:08:00.320 entitled to. So it's it's a you know, like you said, 0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:03.600 it's a lot, because the courts are packed, the emails 0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:08.280 are coming in with people with different situations and tragic 0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:12.120 stories all across the country. It's a lot that's happening. 0:08:12.200 --> 0:08:14.760 And as we were saying, I think it was last week, 0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:17.480 we were talking about, you know, hoping that people are 0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:20.600 really paying attention and understanding that there are a lot 0:08:20.640 --> 0:08:23.400 of folks who feel like they need to turn their 0:08:23.480 --> 0:08:25.960 eyes away or turn it off, which is fine for 0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:28.920 your own mental health, but also knowing that this is 0:08:28.960 --> 0:08:31.480 a time for us, maybe not so much to turn 0:08:31.600 --> 0:08:35.040 to the information overload, but to certainly try to figure 0:08:35.080 --> 0:08:37.600 out who are the groups that we can work with. 0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:39.800 Because you said in the beginning that you know, trying 0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:42.120 to stop gun violence, and I don't believe that that's 0:08:42.120 --> 0:08:45.880 a reality. I don't think we could ever stop anything. 0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:48.760 I think we can reduce it. I think we can 0:08:48.840 --> 0:08:54.000 reduce it signal significantly and prevent some situations from happening. 0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:57.120 And so but that takes work. Like you know, to 0:08:57.240 --> 0:09:02.240 stop it is almost easier than to reduce it, right, 0:09:02.320 --> 0:09:04.200 Like you would think, Okay, if we stopped it, that 0:09:04.320 --> 0:09:07.679 means that there's some divine intervention and gun violence there's 0:09:07.840 --> 0:09:12.319 no more. That's like an act of God. But to 0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:15.920 prevent it and to slow it down, you know, to 0:09:16.240 --> 0:09:19.160 to reduce it, that's real work. It takes people who 0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:24.600 are real practitioners and they need resources. And unfortunately, being 0:09:24.640 --> 0:09:29.040 a gun violence intervention specialist is not a job that 0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:31.320 you can just go online and look it up and 0:09:32.160 --> 0:09:36.160 you know, thousands and whatever jobs pop up. You know, 0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:39.360 where there's money for it, and there's you know, investment 0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:42.520 and there's health insurance. It's really none of that unless 0:09:42.559 --> 0:09:46.000 you are connected to a good organization that has been 0:09:46.040 --> 0:09:49.080 doing it for years. So hopefully people will understand the 0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:53.320 need to be more involved. So that's that on that 0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:58.240 in my life, you know, definitely had In the last 0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:01.559 couple of weeks, I have had a few tragic things 0:10:01.600 --> 0:10:04.440 going on, and in fact, I've had three things over 0:10:04.480 --> 0:10:08.120 the last several months. My uncle passed away. My little 0:10:08.120 --> 0:10:13.240 cousin was mistaken for somebody. His car was the same 0:10:13.280 --> 0:10:17.280 as someone else who was involved in some type of incident, 0:10:17.320 --> 0:10:19.240 and so he was shot at, which caused him to 0:10:19.280 --> 0:10:22.560 be in a car accident and he lived, thank God. 0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:28.360 But lots of problems. You know what he experiences, body trauma. 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:32.360 And now my first cousin. And you know, for a 0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:34.319 lot of people, when you say your first cousin, they're 0:10:34.360 --> 0:10:38.240 kind of like, okay, like you know, first cousin or cousins, 0:10:38.360 --> 0:10:40.960 like they don't see it. I noticed that a lot 0:10:41.000 --> 0:10:45.920 of people just don't have very close knit families the 0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:48.640 way that some people do, because I know a lot 0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:50.040 of people who do. I know a lot of people 0:10:50.080 --> 0:10:52.679 that have very close knit families, and I know a 0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:54.480 lot of people who don't have family at all or 0:10:54.480 --> 0:10:56.680 they don't really see or talk to their family members. 0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:01.440 And in my situation, it's not like that because my 0:11:01.559 --> 0:11:05.880 mother and father have been together for almost sixty years 0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:08.120 or maybe more than sixty years at this point I 0:11:08.120 --> 0:11:13.760 have checked, but definitely more than fifty five. And the 0:11:13.800 --> 0:11:17.680 way we were raised is like brothers and sisters with 0:11:18.040 --> 0:11:22.360 the children and my parents while they were there, you know, 0:11:22.440 --> 0:11:26.080 they have in laws, they don't call each other in laws. 0:11:26.320 --> 0:11:30.559 Everybody is a blended, very strong family. I have spent 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:37.600 summers and holidays and birthdays and anything you could think 0:11:37.679 --> 0:11:41.640 of with either my mother's side or my father's side, 0:11:42.200 --> 0:11:47.560 and at some point even my mother's nephews and nieces 0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:53.920 and their generation. My parents' generation became family with my 0:11:54.040 --> 0:11:58.000 father's side because my parents when they would get for 0:11:58.080 --> 0:12:00.400 the summer, they would take two or three of my 0:12:00.480 --> 0:12:05.000 father's nieces and nephews and also my mother's nieces and nephews, 0:12:05.040 --> 0:12:08.280 and we all came together. So there's really no separation 0:12:08.480 --> 0:12:12.360 of people with people. Everybody knows everybody, and everybody has 0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:15.240 been close if you have a wedding, a birthday party, 0:12:15.320 --> 0:12:19.000 or anything. These families have come together for sixty years. 0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:23.480 That's a long time. So when one of us goes 0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:26.840 or something happens to an aunt whatever and ' especially 0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:30.840 a young person, which we've never experienced. Can you believe 0:12:30.880 --> 0:12:35.520 that we have never until this particular week have we 0:12:35.640 --> 0:12:39.400 ever lost except my brother who died before I was born, 0:12:39.840 --> 0:12:43.360 But we've never lost a young person of the forty 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:48.480 fifty whatever generation. So, with that being said, my cousin 0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:54.320 had a seizure while he was driving and he ended 0:12:54.440 --> 0:12:59.520 up laming on his gas, running into another car and 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:02.680 had a tragic car accident. He had to be cut 0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:06.080 out the vehicle before it was all said and done. 0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:09.959 Every kind of internal problem you could think of, every 0:13:10.040 --> 0:13:15.439 kind of all just types of things, brain swelling, bleeding, body, 0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:21.000 just everything happened to him. And finally, on this past Saturday, 0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:23.880 my aunt had to make and his brothers had to 0:13:23.920 --> 0:13:27.719 make what was probably the hardest decision that they have 0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:30.760 ever made, and then us as a family collectively being 0:13:30.880 --> 0:13:35.000 there to take him off the respirator and within thirty 0:13:35.040 --> 0:13:38.360 minutes he took his last breath, maybe an hour. So 0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:43.320 that has been traumatizing, And with all the situations that 0:13:43.360 --> 0:13:46.480 I experienced, I never really write about it on social 0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:49.280 media because you know, we're so traumatized from the work 0:13:49.320 --> 0:13:53.640 we do that our personal lives become very very quiet. 0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:57.160 People don't know, they have no idea about family things 0:13:57.160 --> 0:13:58.960 that we're having every now, and that you may say 0:13:58.960 --> 0:14:01.120 something before the most part, right, we saw to take 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:03.800 it on the chin. But this has been so emotional 0:14:04.320 --> 0:14:09.160 and so heart wrenching and just so tragic that you know, 0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:13.200 I have solicited the prayers and support the family and friends, 0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:16.600 and so that is my what has been happening with me, 0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:21.120 but the last week, and it's been pretty tough. We 0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:24.000 have to bury him this weekend and it's just a 0:14:24.000 --> 0:14:24.880 hard situation. 0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:28.280 Well, I just want to send on my condolences to 0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:32.960 the family, to your whole family. You know, it's I 0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:34.360 don't know about a lot of people, but I have 0:14:34.440 --> 0:14:37.880 first cousins that you know, like sisters to me. Most 0:14:37.920 --> 0:14:40.520 of my cousins are females, but I have you know, 0:14:40.920 --> 0:14:45.400 some family males. But it's some in particular that are 0:14:45.640 --> 0:14:49.640 really close to me. So you know, I don't wish 0:14:49.720 --> 0:14:53.000 that on anybody. I know, it's hard just thinking as 0:14:53.040 --> 0:14:54.720 I hear you saying that the mother had to make 0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:59.600 a decision, you know, to yeah to some for him 0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:02.840 to move on, you know. But like I said, you 0:15:02.840 --> 0:15:06.000 know when you told me, we just got to remember 0:15:06.080 --> 0:15:09.480 him in good spirits. You got to remember the person 0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:14.200 because you know, after that situation, him trying to move 0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:16.600 forward and trying to live not like he was supposed 0:15:16.600 --> 0:15:18.720 to live, probably wasn't going to be good for. 0:15:18.680 --> 0:15:22.120 Anybody, No, not with all the ailments that he would 0:15:22.160 --> 0:15:25.760 have had if he lived. His legs would have been amputated, 0:15:26.680 --> 0:15:30.440 he had brain issues because of that car accident, his 0:15:30.560 --> 0:15:33.320 body parts had all different types of things. He would 0:15:33.320 --> 0:15:36.560 have never he would have been my cousin the type 0:15:36.560 --> 0:15:39.320 of person that he was. He would have woke up 0:15:39.760 --> 0:15:43.440 with his legs amputated and been like, who's good idea? 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:46.840 Was it for me to live with this? Like who 0:15:47.000 --> 0:15:50.120 made this decision? He would never have probably forgiven us 0:15:50.160 --> 0:15:54.120 as a family collectively, because that would not have been 0:15:54.320 --> 0:15:59.000 his way. He owned several barbershops. He had three children 0:15:59.360 --> 0:16:02.480 fourteen years old, seven and eight. He was a get 0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.480 up and go person. He and I have often been 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:08.040 considered like the black sheets of our family because when 0:16:08.080 --> 0:16:10.880 we were younger, we stayed in trouble. But he turned 0:16:10.960 --> 0:16:14.440 his life in the right direction, was doing the right things. 0:16:15.120 --> 0:16:19.880 Entrepreneurship definitely didn't believe in working for nobody, you know, 0:16:20.240 --> 0:16:24.080 and then boom, here we go. So you know, life 0:16:24.200 --> 0:16:28.000 just happens. And as a result of that, all weekend 0:16:28.440 --> 0:16:32.640 I saw people posting a young man in a hospital bed, 0:16:33.680 --> 0:16:37.240 and I kept turning away from it fast. I did, 0:16:37.320 --> 0:16:39.320 you know, I think I liked one of Sean King's 0:16:39.360 --> 0:16:42.920 posts because I saw he was raising money for a family, 0:16:42.960 --> 0:16:44.960 and I already know if Sean posted it. Then I 0:16:45.000 --> 0:16:47.760 saw you posted it. I know it's something that's important. 0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:50.680 But something happened to a young man by the name 0:16:50.720 --> 0:16:53.600 of Ralph y'all, and I know you know the story. 0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:55.360 So I will let you tell this story. 0:16:55.560 --> 0:17:00.320 I I stood by my cousin's bed and I all, 0:17:00.520 --> 0:17:02.520 you know, when the nurse came in to clean him up, 0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:05.720 she asked, you know, people who wanted to leave to leave, 0:17:05.760 --> 0:17:07.480 and those who wanted to stay to stay. 0:17:08.000 --> 0:17:10.280 And I saw his body in the condition that it 0:17:10.400 --> 0:17:15.840 was in. So when seeing Ralph y'all popping up on 0:17:15.880 --> 0:17:18.560 my timeline, it's just something that I could not stomach 0:17:18.640 --> 0:17:22.320 because I was literally standing there looking at another young 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:25.240 person forty years old, and I know Ralph is so 0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:28.639 much younger, but it just seems like black folks, like 0:17:28.680 --> 0:17:32.320 we just have so much trauma. I know, car accidents 0:17:32.359 --> 0:17:35.159 and things like that happen all the time, but it 0:17:35.320 --> 0:17:38.560 just still just feels like we can't even just live 0:17:38.600 --> 0:17:43.040 a life that we only have the regular things that 0:17:43.119 --> 0:17:45.399 you can't control. Because then you got the Ralph y'all 0:17:45.480 --> 0:17:50.600 situation at the same time. So what happened to him, Well, yeah. 0:17:50.240 --> 0:17:55.040 Ralph y'all was sixteen years is sixteen year old boy 0:17:55.800 --> 0:18:00.960 and he was going to pick up his siblings in 0:18:01.040 --> 0:18:04.240 Kansas City, Missouri, and he went to the wrong home. 0:18:05.359 --> 0:18:06.960 You know, I guess he had the wrong address. He 0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:09.040 went to pick them up, and when he went to 0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:15.720 the wrong home, the homeowner shot Ralph through the glass door, 0:18:17.359 --> 0:18:22.000 shot him once in the head, and then you know, 0:18:22.040 --> 0:18:24.080 he shot him first, then he shot him again in 0:18:24.080 --> 0:18:27.320 the head to make sure that he was dead, you know. 0:18:27.400 --> 0:18:30.480 And by the grace of God, Ralph has survived and 0:18:31.440 --> 0:18:34.520 he's on his way to recovering. But this was a 0:18:34.560 --> 0:18:39.840 white man, you know, And there seems to be absolutely 0:18:40.040 --> 0:18:44.800 no understanding why through a door that you would see 0:18:45.560 --> 0:18:48.440 a young kid who ask. 0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:50.720 I'm here to pick up. 0:18:50.640 --> 0:18:53.360 Something, and just on the mere sight that you would 0:18:53.359 --> 0:18:56.639 try to take his life and said, this is not 0:18:56.800 --> 0:19:01.480 standing in ther ground, this is not anything related to that. 0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:06.240 This is a murderer, mentionally murdered this young black boy 0:19:06.320 --> 0:19:12.280 and calling for justice, you know. And Attorney Lee Merrit 0:19:12.359 --> 0:19:15.480 is on the case along with Attorney Crump. They're both 0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:20.440 working on this case. But it's very, very very triggering 0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:23.960 just seeing those, you know, those pictures of him and 0:19:24.040 --> 0:19:27.320 like you said, in that hospital bad you know, it's 0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:27.880 it's just. 0:19:29.520 --> 0:19:33.200 I don't even understand. I just don't understand what what 0:19:33.200 --> 0:19:37.320 what what what level evil? You know, what it takes 0:19:37.400 --> 0:19:39.200 for me to take somebody's. 0:19:38.720 --> 0:19:44.680 Life, like they're going to say, they're gonna say, which 0:19:44.880 --> 0:19:48.080 you know, I need to Probably this week, I can't 0:19:48.080 --> 0:19:51.960 do it, but I will at some point try to 0:19:51.960 --> 0:19:55.800 get more details. But I'm sure that the excuse is 0:19:55.840 --> 0:20:01.200 going to be that he they felt threatened. They saw 0:20:01.200 --> 0:20:04.600 a man and there's and there's been robberies in the community, 0:20:04.680 --> 0:20:07.000 and there's been this, and I was nervous. 0:20:08.160 --> 0:20:09.600 Yeah, but that's always saying. 0:20:09.720 --> 0:20:12.480 I'm just wanting I want to understand what makes you 0:20:12.600 --> 0:20:15.520 nervous by just seeing a young black man? What what 0:20:15.880 --> 0:20:19.960 was it about him that he did they'll make you nervous. 0:20:20.000 --> 0:20:22.119 He didn't brandish any weapon, he didn't do anything. What 0:20:22.480 --> 0:20:24.200 made you feel like you needed to shoot him? And 0:20:24.200 --> 0:20:27.280 then shoot him in the head, as you said over like, 0:20:27.359 --> 0:20:30.760 I don't understand this level. For me, in my mind, 0:20:30.760 --> 0:20:33.400 it's like you have to for me to just even 0:20:33.440 --> 0:20:36.440 want to harm you, you have to do something to 0:20:36.440 --> 0:20:40.560 me that is drastic. But for me to take your life, 0:20:41.680 --> 0:20:45.359 you know, what you would have to do is just 0:20:45.440 --> 0:20:47.680 stand in front of my door, you know. And I 0:20:47.720 --> 0:20:50.960 don't understand it. I just don't get it. And we 0:20:51.080 --> 0:20:55.159 constantly have these conversations, and young black men are constantly 0:20:55.200 --> 0:20:57.600 the victims of these situations. 0:20:58.359 --> 0:21:02.240 It's sad. I mean, it's just it's just too much. 0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:05.280 It's just too much. And you know, like I said, 0:21:05.560 --> 0:21:08.080 they'll come up with as many excuses as possible. But 0:21:08.600 --> 0:21:10.920 one thing I do know is that with Lee Merrit 0:21:11.480 --> 0:21:17.280 and Ben Crump and Sean King excuse me you, and 0:21:17.320 --> 0:21:20.239 so many others, I see all kinds of celebrities and 0:21:20.280 --> 0:21:25.400 people posting about it. With all of those folks involved 0:21:25.800 --> 0:21:31.520 at the onset versus in the ahmard arbery's situation, it 0:21:31.720 --> 0:21:35.320 took time before people even knew about it, and then 0:21:35.520 --> 0:21:39.840 time for Sean and Lee Merit to work there, you know, 0:21:40.320 --> 0:21:45.359 points of pressure and get everybody involved. But now people 0:21:45.400 --> 0:21:47.840 seem to be engaged in this from the beginning. So 0:21:47.960 --> 0:21:54.119 I think that eventually there will be they'll be an arrest, 0:21:54.359 --> 0:21:55.160 That's what I think. 0:21:55.200 --> 0:22:00.200 But you know, he was let go, you know, that's 0:22:00.160 --> 0:22:01.960 support I didn't really they said he was. He was 0:22:02.040 --> 0:22:05.000 brought down question and didn't let go, you know. 0:22:05.080 --> 0:22:09.480 Yeah, because he's he's scared. He was scared. That's what 0:22:09.520 --> 0:22:13.120 they're gonna say. He was scared. So you know, it 0:22:13.160 --> 0:22:16.880 is what it is. And there's been, like you said, 0:22:16.960 --> 0:22:22.920 so many different tragic situations happening. Because even over this 0:22:23.040 --> 0:22:26.959 past weekend, while you had you know, my my cousin 0:22:27.840 --> 0:22:30.639 he you know, was in a tragic car accident and 0:22:30.800 --> 0:22:34.080 passed away on Saturday. But then there was a prom 0:22:34.640 --> 0:22:37.040 h two kids at a prom or going or coming 0:22:37.040 --> 0:22:39.600 from a prom. I'm not sure, but I saw that also, 0:22:40.200 --> 0:22:44.280 and those two individuals died in a car accident. And 0:22:44.320 --> 0:22:47.919 by the way, I think, if I'm not mistaken, that 0:22:49.640 --> 0:22:54.600 uh Floyd Mayweather's manager or assistant, a beautiful young woman. 0:22:54.640 --> 0:22:57.560 I think her name was like Kitty or something. She 0:22:57.960 --> 0:23:00.760 it seemed like she died in a car accident. I 0:23:00.800 --> 0:23:05.720 saw a meat mill and Milano posting about another young lady, 0:23:06.200 --> 0:23:09.439 beautiful young lady who died in a car accident. Then 0:23:09.520 --> 0:23:14.000 I think you guys posted a guy recently, some some 0:23:14.000 --> 0:23:16.960 some dude, he died in a car accident. Then you 0:23:17.119 --> 0:23:23.080 had t I's manager or his person, business partner, whatever, 0:23:23.359 --> 0:23:28.160 who had some type of medical issue. People, it's it's 0:23:28.280 --> 0:23:31.280 really a lot of death. It's really a lot of death. 0:23:31.840 --> 0:23:32.359 It really is. 0:23:32.400 --> 0:23:34.240 And I said that the other day, man, we have 0:23:34.320 --> 0:23:38.679 to really protect your soul, protect your energy, you know, 0:23:39.560 --> 0:23:42.120 protect your spirit, because death. 0:23:42.000 --> 0:23:44.160 Is you know, it's it's what we have war. 0:23:44.800 --> 0:23:49.040 I think it's you know, and and death is hitting 0:23:49.119 --> 0:23:53.720 us a lot. So I think keep your your surroundings 0:23:53.760 --> 0:23:59.000 and your circumference really tight. Yeah, you know, fast, do 0:23:59.040 --> 0:24:01.840 whatever you gotta do, you know, because a lot going on. 0:24:02.359 --> 0:24:07.680 It is it is, it is and and no, And 0:24:07.720 --> 0:24:11.800 we can't afford to have shootings because we're we already dying, 0:24:11.840 --> 0:24:15.639 were dying from health issues. We're dying in you know, 0:24:15.920 --> 0:24:22.439 like you said, the these these freak accidents, we're dying there. 0:24:22.880 --> 0:24:26.920 God bless our brother Jamie Fox, who had a serious 0:24:27.000 --> 0:24:30.320 medical emergency at the point of us taping. We know 0:24:30.440 --> 0:24:34.160 that he's His family has not updated people on where 0:24:34.200 --> 0:24:37.280 he is now except the fact that he began communicating. 0:24:37.720 --> 0:24:40.280 So you got all of these things happening. We can't 0:24:40.320 --> 0:24:43.320 afford to be fighting one another and shooting one another 0:24:43.400 --> 0:24:47.600 because we are already dealing with all these other challenges. 0:24:48.000 --> 0:24:50.360 And you know, I saw that a sweet Now, one 0:24:50.400 --> 0:24:53.200 thing I did actually read about, and you know, it 0:24:53.560 --> 0:24:56.399 hit me was the sweet sixteen that there was a 0:24:56.440 --> 0:24:59.639 major shooting in Alabama, I believe, I think I remember 0:24:59.680 --> 0:25:03.040 it was in Alabama and four people died. Four people 0:25:03.160 --> 0:25:07.240 at this sweet sixteen, and it brings me to my 0:25:07.400 --> 0:25:15.680 thought of the day. I was really sitting with something 0:25:15.680 --> 0:25:20.479 that I heard last week prior to us going to 0:25:20.560 --> 0:25:25.359 be with Justin Jones in Nashville, Tennessee. As I was 0:25:25.400 --> 0:25:30.280 preparing my remarks, I was doing some research and earlier 0:25:30.320 --> 0:25:34.960 in the morning I saw a historian on the news 0:25:35.680 --> 0:25:40.359 who was talking about the amount of mass shootings that 0:25:40.400 --> 0:25:44.360 had happened at that point last week and how it 0:25:44.600 --> 0:25:47.720 was more than the amount of days in the year. 0:25:48.520 --> 0:25:51.119 So it was like at that particular day, there was 0:25:51.160 --> 0:25:53.920 one hundred days in the year and there had been 0:25:53.960 --> 0:25:57.679 one hundred and forty seven mass shootings. So he was 0:25:57.720 --> 0:26:02.800 reporting that. I thought of the day was that with 0:26:03.000 --> 0:26:07.159 four people shot in Alabama in one place at one time. 0:26:07.280 --> 0:26:10.240 No, it's four people killed, it was twenty eight people shot. 0:26:10.800 --> 0:26:14.199 Wow. Se Yeah, obviously didn't read well enough. So but 0:26:14.320 --> 0:26:16.360 with four people killed, so twenty. 0:26:16.040 --> 0:26:18.960 Eight people injured injured in this. 0:26:19.080 --> 0:26:24.760 Situation, is that counted in the number of mass shootings? 0:26:25.000 --> 0:26:28.840 So every shooting that happens in the black community, black 0:26:28.880 --> 0:26:35.080 and brown communities where there are multiple people shot, multiple injuries, 0:26:35.560 --> 0:26:39.840 do they count those in the number of mass shootings? 0:26:39.840 --> 0:26:42.439 Happening across the country because I believe that if you 0:26:42.600 --> 0:26:46.160 put all of those numbers together, So if the shooting 0:26:46.200 --> 0:26:49.040 in Alabama, because I know one thing in the news, 0:26:49.320 --> 0:26:53.320 they do not call a shooting in an urban community 0:26:53.600 --> 0:26:56.800 where there are more than one where there is more 0:26:56.840 --> 0:27:00.159 than one person shot or more than one injury, I 0:27:00.200 --> 0:27:03.439 have never heard them use the word mass shooting to 0:27:03.520 --> 0:27:07.320 describe it. I've never seen I've never a witness the 0:27:07.480 --> 0:27:13.280 media slowing down. I've never witnessed the legislators having to 0:27:13.320 --> 0:27:15.720 go to the floor to talk about it. I've never 0:27:15.800 --> 0:27:19.119 seen the President of the United States and the Vice 0:27:19.200 --> 0:27:23.600 president going to visit that town or making a speech 0:27:23.640 --> 0:27:27.399 about the horrific incident that has happened in Chicago and 0:27:27.440 --> 0:27:31.560 Louisiana and New York and Alabama. I've never seen that. 0:27:32.040 --> 0:27:38.600 I've never ever ever seen the world focus in on 0:27:38.760 --> 0:27:43.760 the shooting of four five six people injuries as you said, 0:27:43.840 --> 0:27:47.600 twenty eight, but four people dead and call it a 0:27:47.720 --> 0:27:50.919 mass shooting and bring attention to it to make the 0:27:51.040 --> 0:27:54.280 case of why there has to be something done about 0:27:54.320 --> 0:27:58.679 gun violence. And so I wonder why is that, Because 0:27:58.720 --> 0:28:02.600 if you count the number properly, then we've had more 0:28:02.680 --> 0:28:06.480 than one hundred and forty six shootings in one hundred days. 0:28:06.520 --> 0:28:10.000 And now I'm understanding that the number has grown even 0:28:10.040 --> 0:28:13.080 more than that because there are mass shootings that basically 0:28:13.200 --> 0:28:18.040 happen every day. Under the current criteria for how they 0:28:18.520 --> 0:28:21.320 identify mass shooting, there have been more than one hundred 0:28:21.320 --> 0:28:24.800 and forty seven from last week. Right, So let's just 0:28:24.840 --> 0:28:27.359 say the number is at one fifty or one fifty 0:28:27.400 --> 0:28:31.280 one or two. Right. If you add what happens in 0:28:31.400 --> 0:28:34.040 our communities with our people too, that it could be 0:28:34.080 --> 0:28:37.840 two fifty in one hundred and ten day period. So 0:28:37.920 --> 0:28:42.160 we're dealing with the problem of epic proportion and then 0:28:42.320 --> 0:28:45.560 even in counting the numbers. And I'm not blaming the 0:28:45.600 --> 0:28:48.640 person who was on the news and what they're doing, 0:28:48.680 --> 0:28:51.080 because you know they had good intention people who trying 0:28:51.120 --> 0:28:55.440 to present data, right, But I'm just saying in America, 0:28:55.720 --> 0:28:59.040 if we look at an American crisis that does that 0:29:00.480 --> 0:29:05.560 all people are impacted by there is still racism in 0:29:05.680 --> 0:29:09.200 even reporting the numbers of how many people have been 0:29:09.240 --> 0:29:12.040 shot and how many mass shootings are happening across the nation. 0:29:12.400 --> 0:29:15.640 Still black and brown people are not even being counted 0:29:16.120 --> 0:29:19.640 unless like you have in Uvaldi where there were babies 0:29:19.680 --> 0:29:23.440 in the school, so therefore they counted that, but they 0:29:23.520 --> 0:29:24.440 won't even talk about them. 0:29:24.960 --> 0:29:26.320 And if they all counted, they not. 0:29:26.400 --> 0:29:29.200 We don't know it because you said, those are not 0:29:29.240 --> 0:29:32.120 the things that are highlighted. We don't see none of 0:29:32.360 --> 0:29:36.040 the president and nobody going to places in Chicago, places 0:29:36.080 --> 0:29:37.760 in New York where four or five. 0:29:37.600 --> 0:29:39.960 People are being shot at one time. We don't. That's 0:29:40.000 --> 0:29:42.760 not a thing, you know. And that's that. 0:29:42.760 --> 0:29:46.880 Goes back to where the slogan black Lives matter comes from. 0:29:47.400 --> 0:29:50.440 You know, all lives matter. No, we have to tell 0:29:50.520 --> 0:29:50.840 you that. 0:29:50.880 --> 0:29:54.400 Black lives matter because the situations like this, where we 0:29:54.760 --> 0:29:57.400 don't get the attention when the lives are lost in 0:29:57.440 --> 0:30:01.200 our communities. It's it's not seen as something that's tragic. 0:30:01.240 --> 0:30:05.440 It's seen as you know, status quo. You know, and 0:30:05.480 --> 0:30:06.880 that's what I tell people all the time. 0:30:07.000 --> 0:30:07.920 It is status quo. 0:30:08.400 --> 0:30:13.160 It's designed to capitalism and America was designed to keep 0:30:13.240 --> 0:30:16.479 us where we are. You know, we are expendable, we 0:30:16.560 --> 0:30:20.720 are we are products, we are consumers. You know, we 0:30:20.800 --> 0:30:23.200 are all the things that's supposed to feed the economy. 0:30:23.280 --> 0:30:26.640 Black man was never supposed to be benefit off of 0:30:26.680 --> 0:30:29.440 the economy. So that's why when you look at the 0:30:29.440 --> 0:30:31.720 wealth gap and you look at all those things, we 0:30:31.880 --> 0:30:36.600 always we've never represented over two percent of wealth in America. 0:30:36.760 --> 0:30:39.720 It's just never happened, you know why, because we were 0:30:39.760 --> 0:30:43.520 never designed to it. No matter if we were seventeen, eighteen, fourteen, 0:30:43.640 --> 0:30:48.600 fifteen percent of you know, the population, We've never we've 0:30:48.640 --> 0:30:51.000 never achieved over two percent of the wealth gap. So 0:30:51.240 --> 0:30:53.959 when people say things are better, we still are at 0:30:54.000 --> 0:30:56.080 two percent of world gap. So it's not really better, 0:30:56.120 --> 0:30:59.520 you just it's a perceived notion. Because now we have 0:30:59.640 --> 0:31:04.160 social media and people are either able to live about 0:31:04.200 --> 0:31:09.040 wealth or the ones who have wealth, you know, they weren't. 0:31:09.200 --> 0:31:12.760 They didn't see what was already done. So we have 0:31:12.960 --> 0:31:16.479 false sense of reality and false sense of you know, 0:31:16.640 --> 0:31:19.600 growth that's not really happening. So until we get on 0:31:19.680 --> 0:31:24.000 the same page and we start acknowledging what America is 0:31:24.080 --> 0:31:27.000 doing to us and how it's never focusing on us, 0:31:27.080 --> 0:31:30.120 and we start focusing on making sure that we highlight 0:31:30.200 --> 0:31:34.440 that we utilize our platforms, voices and resources and everything 0:31:34.680 --> 0:31:37.840 to combat the violence and the lack of you know, 0:31:37.960 --> 0:31:40.680 sensitivity for the violence in our community. 0:31:40.920 --> 0:31:42.880 We're gonna keep seeing it happen every day. 0:31:43.040 --> 0:31:45.920 That's right, and she'll breathe. I would just say this. 0:31:47.400 --> 0:31:50.480 Someone asked me, actually, while I was at the hospital, 0:31:50.840 --> 0:31:53.239 one of my aunts walked up to me and was like, man, like, 0:31:53.240 --> 0:31:56.200 it's so much killing, just worrying me all the stuff 0:31:56.240 --> 0:31:59.040 going on, worrying about my other little cousins. They going 0:31:59.120 --> 0:32:01.320 to parties and you know, you don't want to stop 0:32:01.360 --> 0:32:03.880 their lives. And she was just like, you know, just 0:32:03.960 --> 0:32:07.200 worries me. It's just so much, and she said, and 0:32:07.280 --> 0:32:09.800 I just wonder, like what it's going to take to 0:32:09.960 --> 0:32:11.960 end it. I'm like, as long as you do not 0:32:12.160 --> 0:32:19.800 put a job resources, proper housing, deal with people's mental 0:32:19.840 --> 0:32:23.320 health issues and their other health issues. Make sure that 0:32:23.480 --> 0:32:27.320 families like mother and father have jobs, not just the 0:32:27.360 --> 0:32:29.880 young person. Because the young person have a little job 0:32:30.080 --> 0:32:33.040 and then they go to work and guess what, all 0:32:33.080 --> 0:32:35.480 their money is being taken up because they either trying 0:32:35.480 --> 0:32:38.280 to help their little sister or give money to their family. 0:32:38.680 --> 0:32:41.240 If you have to make sure that a whole realistic 0:32:41.400 --> 0:32:45.280 approach to the whole family being taken care of and 0:32:45.320 --> 0:32:47.520 not that. And when I say taking care of, I'm 0:32:47.520 --> 0:32:49.680 not talking about giving them a handout. I'm talking about 0:32:49.680 --> 0:32:53.200 giving them an opportunity, educating them properly, making sure they 0:32:53.200 --> 0:32:56.160 have access to clean food and things that like, not 0:32:56.280 --> 0:33:00.000 all the freaking sugar and disgusting stuff that we put 0:33:00.080 --> 0:33:02.880 in our bodies every day. That does not make us healthy. 0:33:02.920 --> 0:33:05.400 It doesn't make us our best selves, It makes us tied, 0:33:05.400 --> 0:33:09.240 it makes us sluggish. Right, make sure that people are healthy. 0:33:09.360 --> 0:33:11.600 If you do that, I bet you you will see 0:33:12.120 --> 0:33:16.719 you talking about reducing violence. That might actually bring it 0:33:16.760 --> 0:33:19.800 almost to a stop. Right you would have you would 0:33:19.800 --> 0:33:24.320 be able to make a clear determination of the shooters 0:33:24.560 --> 0:33:27.000 they would be. They would be they would be so 0:33:27.440 --> 0:33:31.720 they would be known, and they would be easily cast out, 0:33:32.040 --> 0:33:34.960 like we would see them, identify them and they be 0:33:35.080 --> 0:33:36.440 gone because. 0:33:36.200 --> 0:33:39.280 The research, because all everything else would be on points. 0:33:39.280 --> 0:33:42.600 So those, you know, just the negative and evil people, 0:33:42.920 --> 0:33:44.880 it'd be easy to get weeded out, you know, but 0:33:44.920 --> 0:33:48.760 it's a lot of people. I tell people all the time. Look, crime, 0:33:49.680 --> 0:33:53.600 poverty is crime, you know what I'm saying. Poverty is violence. 0:33:53.680 --> 0:33:56.960 And when we can't eliminate poverty, and we can't eliminate 0:33:57.000 --> 0:34:00.200 the things that create poverty, that contribute to property, that 0:34:00.320 --> 0:34:03.200 continue to face the poverty, you know then you can't 0:34:03.200 --> 0:34:03.960 stop violence. 0:34:04.040 --> 0:34:04.719 You just can't. 0:34:09.160 --> 0:34:12.960 So now we are shifting gears to talk about something 0:34:12.960 --> 0:34:15.600 that for the last week I have not been able 0:34:15.719 --> 0:34:18.640 to really get into the way I want to, And 0:34:18.680 --> 0:34:22.040 I guess today begins the beginning of me really trying, trying, 0:34:22.200 --> 0:34:26.080 trying to help people make sense of what took place 0:34:26.200 --> 0:34:26.800 last week. 0:34:27.760 --> 0:34:27.960 You know. 0:34:28.160 --> 0:34:35.480 Unfortunately, the situation with the FBI and Shaquaula Robinson her, 0:34:35.560 --> 0:34:39.480 you know, with with the unfortunate news that we received, 0:34:39.880 --> 0:34:45.120 coincided with my cousin passing away, and for the first 0:34:45.200 --> 0:34:47.440 time in a long time, I was like, I just can't, 0:34:47.560 --> 0:34:50.440 like I just can't do all these things at one time, 0:34:50.960 --> 0:34:55.480 but you all were on it, my son and you know, 0:34:55.600 --> 0:34:58.839 until freedom of course, and then we have the best 0:34:58.960 --> 0:35:01.560 legal team. I tell people in America, if you want 0:35:01.560 --> 0:35:03.879 to know the best legal team in America, you need 0:35:03.920 --> 0:35:07.120 to be following us, because we had the lawyers. Son't 0:35:07.120 --> 0:35:10.040 listen to that bullshit they tell you on the internet, 0:35:10.360 --> 0:35:15.279 because that stuff is not true. So you all know that. 0:35:16.000 --> 0:35:21.600 At some point Attorney Ben Krump, he was he decided 0:35:21.800 --> 0:35:26.200 to take on yet another situation after he learned about 0:35:26.440 --> 0:35:32.480 the unfortunate story of Chanqula Robinson. But that did not 0:35:32.800 --> 0:35:38.560 happen without him having several conversations between myself and this 0:35:38.640 --> 0:35:41.480 young lady who is my our friend, our dear sister, 0:35:42.360 --> 0:35:46.560 who is an attorney that works with Attorney Crump, when 0:35:46.560 --> 0:35:48.799 she stepped in and said, I got this. You know, 0:35:49.040 --> 0:35:54.160 I'm going to manage this case. I'm going to travel 0:35:54.280 --> 0:35:57.440 to Mexico. I'm going to get down to the bottom 0:35:57.440 --> 0:36:01.040 of what happened to Shanmqualla Robinson. And that is Attorney 0:36:01.080 --> 0:36:04.960 Sue Ane Robinson, which is no relation to the Robinson family, 0:36:05.000 --> 0:36:07.319 although at this point she talks to them so much 0:36:07.360 --> 0:36:11.440 that they're probably becoming like, you know, distant cousins. But 0:36:12.600 --> 0:36:17.080 Attorney Sue Ane Robinson has a law firm called Frontline 0:36:17.200 --> 0:36:22.920 Law out of Florida, and she is of counsel to 0:36:23.160 --> 0:36:26.880 Ben Crump Associates, which is being Crump's law firm. Is 0:36:26.920 --> 0:36:28.560 it Ben Crump's Associates? 0:36:28.960 --> 0:36:30.680 Sean ban Crump Law? 0:36:31.200 --> 0:36:35.080 Oh, it's just being Frump Law. Excuse me, I've been corrected, y'all. 0:36:36.040 --> 0:36:38.480 And so, Attorney Robinson, I know you don't have a 0:36:38.520 --> 0:36:41.880 long time today, but we're glad that you have joined 0:36:41.960 --> 0:36:45.839 us to kind of take us quickly through what has 0:36:46.000 --> 0:36:49.640 happened and then we can talk about the whys and 0:36:49.840 --> 0:36:52.120 like who's asked we need to kick I said that, 0:36:52.360 --> 0:36:57.680 not you, and so please let us bring us up 0:36:57.719 --> 0:37:00.080 to speed on what took place last week when in 0:37:01.480 --> 0:37:06.120 the Robinson family Shamfquali's family met with the FBI. 0:37:07.000 --> 0:37:08.520 Okay, sure, thanks for having me. 0:37:08.560 --> 0:37:11.480 Hey, my son, and my condolences to you Timika and 0:37:11.560 --> 0:37:14.200 your family's loss. Thank you so much for you know, 0:37:14.719 --> 0:37:17.840 coming right back in the game. As always, I appreciate 0:37:17.880 --> 0:37:21.080 you and all the work that your team does. Last 0:37:21.080 --> 0:37:24.479 week we had a meeting with the family with two 0:37:24.600 --> 0:37:31.040 of the US attorneys and two US attorneys and about 0:37:31.040 --> 0:37:34.640 ten or so of federal agents, and they basically said 0:37:34.680 --> 0:37:40.080 that they did their own independent autopsy. After their autopsy 0:37:40.160 --> 0:37:44.880 results indicated something different from the Mexican autopsy, which is 0:37:44.880 --> 0:37:48.719 that there's no neck injury, they decided that they would 0:37:48.760 --> 0:37:52.440 now start an investigation into the case. Then they spoke 0:37:52.520 --> 0:37:56.200 to witnesses, which they didn't tell us specifically which witnesses. 0:37:56.640 --> 0:38:00.040 And then after they did that so called investigation, and 0:38:00.440 --> 0:38:04.280 they decided not to file charge, not to file homicide charges. 0:38:04.520 --> 0:38:07.840 Now it's important too things One because it's a transnational 0:38:07.880 --> 0:38:11.439 criminal case. The only charge is that they can bring 0:38:11.520 --> 0:38:15.120 against a US citizen that commits a crime against another 0:38:15.239 --> 0:38:22.200 US citizen is murdered. So they can't charge anybody with 0:38:24.280 --> 0:38:27.839 assault or battery or something like that, so it has 0:38:27.880 --> 0:38:30.440 to be a murder charge. That's still not an excuse 0:38:30.560 --> 0:38:33.960 because obviously we see what's in the video, and we 0:38:34.120 --> 0:38:38.200 know that Shapula Robinson's body had contusion on her head, 0:38:38.280 --> 0:38:40.680 she had a big knot on her forehead, and that 0:38:40.800 --> 0:38:45.879 she had some contusions around her eyes, and their autopsy 0:38:45.960 --> 0:38:48.800 actually confirmed that she also had swelling on the brain, 0:38:49.200 --> 0:38:54.319 which indicates that she had head trauma. So it's all 0:38:54.400 --> 0:38:56.960 the signs line up in terms of the condition of 0:38:56.960 --> 0:38:59.440 her body for what we see in the video in 0:38:59.520 --> 0:39:03.600 terms of her being beaten. So to me, our first 0:39:03.640 --> 0:39:07.600 question to them was, well, what is your autopsy results? 0:39:08.160 --> 0:39:12.680 Why did that make you start finally investigating number one? 0:39:12.920 --> 0:39:14.320 Because remember our. 0:39:14.280 --> 0:39:17.000 Urgency has always been ta maka that you know every 0:39:17.080 --> 0:39:20.360 day that passes that they weren't investigating or questioning the 0:39:20.440 --> 0:39:22.560 people who were in the home, the travel mates. 0:39:22.920 --> 0:39:24.279 They could be getting their story straight. 0:39:24.360 --> 0:39:27.200 They could be deleting text messages, they could be doing anything, 0:39:27.800 --> 0:39:32.000 and so the FBI admitted that there was a delay 0:39:32.120 --> 0:39:37.960 because they didn't start that investigation until after the autopsy 0:39:38.000 --> 0:39:41.000 results came out, which honestly makes no sense. 0:39:40.800 --> 0:39:46.759 To me, but it it is par. 0:39:46.840 --> 0:39:51.480 For the course because it indicates what we've suspected all along, 0:39:51.560 --> 0:39:53.840 which is they've never taken the case. 0:39:53.680 --> 0:39:54.920 Seriously from the beginning. 0:39:55.280 --> 0:39:58.760 So they did an autopsy on shan Pula's body after 0:39:58.840 --> 0:40:02.440 it had already gone through it thorough autopsy, which Pulla 0:40:02.680 --> 0:40:06.400 and Ms Robinson and the Robinson family have actually authorized 0:40:06.400 --> 0:40:09.160 me to release some of the Mexican autopsy just so 0:40:09.200 --> 0:40:13.440 the public understands, like when the US authorities are saying, oh, 0:40:13.480 --> 0:40:18.400 we did other autopsy and kind of discrediting the Mexican autopsy, 0:40:18.480 --> 0:40:23.719 they will actually see how thorough it was for themselves, 0:40:23.719 --> 0:40:26.719 so that you can kind of say, well, this comparison 0:40:26.840 --> 0:40:31.080 or this kind of disparity doesn't really make sense. But 0:40:31.200 --> 0:40:35.040 the US authorities autopsy was done after the body had 0:40:35.080 --> 0:40:38.600 already gone through an autopsy which includes looking at organs, 0:40:38.920 --> 0:40:42.359 doing certain cuts, and then the body was put back 0:40:42.360 --> 0:40:46.479 together and then embalmed, and then by the funeral home 0:40:46.560 --> 0:40:49.960 and then transported to the United States. So that's when 0:40:50.000 --> 0:40:53.040 they did their autops So the FBI is saying, don't 0:40:53.040 --> 0:40:57.799 trust this Mexican autopsy done by the Mexican authorities that 0:40:57.880 --> 0:41:00.760 indicates that she had a spinal injury that was done 0:41:00.800 --> 0:41:05.359 contemporaneously with her being dead. Trust the autopsy done weeks later, 0:41:06.120 --> 0:41:09.640 after the body has already been prepared for burial and embalmed. 0:41:09.920 --> 0:41:12.200 This is the autopsy that we're using to say that 0:41:12.239 --> 0:41:15.759 we're not going forward with chartists. It's outrageous, it's unreasonable, 0:41:15.800 --> 0:41:18.920 it's disrespectful to Shinko's marry and what happened to her, 0:41:18.960 --> 0:41:20.600 and of course to all of us who can see 0:41:20.640 --> 0:41:21.800 in the video what happened. 0:41:22.480 --> 0:41:27.279 Yeah, I'm I'm perplexed because basically you're telling me. First, 0:41:27.719 --> 0:41:30.640 like you just said, you know, you do something. Weeks 0:41:30.640 --> 0:41:35.040 and months later, you do, you perform an autopsy, and 0:41:35.120 --> 0:41:37.560 you come up with the fact that her neck wasn't broke. 0:41:37.880 --> 0:41:41.160 But the fact that you you're making just her neck 0:41:41.239 --> 0:41:44.640 being broke the only criteria for how she was murdered 0:41:44.640 --> 0:41:47.719 to me is crazy. Right when you're saying she has contusion, 0:41:47.840 --> 0:41:50.920 she says all the other things that are you know, 0:41:51.160 --> 0:41:55.760 that are that equate to the fact that she was murdered, 0:41:56.160 --> 0:42:00.160 you know, and they overlooked that because because they say 0:42:00.600 --> 0:42:03.719 that there's no spinal injury, Like, I don't understand. What 0:42:04.040 --> 0:42:05.719 about the rest of us, What about what we're seen 0:42:05.760 --> 0:42:07.440 on the video? What about what we've seen with. 0:42:07.400 --> 0:42:08.080 Our own eyes? 0:42:08.719 --> 0:42:08.920 You know? 0:42:09.560 --> 0:42:12.520 And then I heard that there was something that said that, 0:42:12.960 --> 0:42:18.640 you know, there was supposed to be like a fight that. 0:42:18.520 --> 0:42:24.680 They agreed she agreed to agreed to a fight two people. Okay, okay, 0:42:24.800 --> 0:42:28.359 Well here's the issue with that theory. If you say, 0:42:28.800 --> 0:42:30.480 what do you say that? Let me just say this, 0:42:31.080 --> 0:42:33.400 because my song is going, what about the you know, 0:42:33.440 --> 0:42:36.960 the brain, the head injuries? What about this? What about that? 0:42:37.200 --> 0:42:41.800 The other question, what about she's dead? Like is that 0:42:42.040 --> 0:42:46.040 does that play into any What about the fact that 0:42:46.080 --> 0:42:46.560 she's dead. 0:42:46.840 --> 0:42:48.720 But that's what I'm saying, and all of these things 0:42:48.719 --> 0:42:51.279 that you see that's wrong with her, along with the 0:42:51.320 --> 0:42:53.719 fact that she's dead, shows that somebody killed us. 0:42:53.760 --> 0:42:54.520 So I'm just trying. 0:42:54.800 --> 0:42:59.719 Their position is they cannot determine, based on their autopsy 0:43:00.360 --> 0:43:02.959 exactly what her cause of death is. They are going 0:43:03.000 --> 0:43:06.680 to list her cause of death that's undetermined and not 0:43:06.719 --> 0:43:09.960 go forward with charges, so that in and of itself 0:43:10.320 --> 0:43:13.359 is a conflict. So they're saying, we can't rule out 0:43:13.400 --> 0:43:15.680 that it was based on the fight, and specifically said 0:43:15.719 --> 0:43:18.719 those words. We cannot rule out that she was not 0:43:18.880 --> 0:43:23.080 killed by injuries from this beating that she took, but. 0:43:24.600 --> 0:43:26.480 We're gonna list it as undetermined. 0:43:26.960 --> 0:43:31.040 So so the frustration really, you know, no, you're going 0:43:31.080 --> 0:43:33.400 to get into the part about the two people agreed 0:43:33.440 --> 0:43:33.959 to a fight. 0:43:34.760 --> 0:43:37.880 Okay, so Shankquila. 0:43:38.480 --> 0:43:41.959 They made sure to advise us that Shankqula was being 0:43:42.000 --> 0:43:45.040 a normal twenty year old, twenty five year old that 0:43:45.200 --> 0:43:48.800 was of age on a vacation and was drinking. Oh, 0:43:48.840 --> 0:43:51.279 she was drinking. We were advised she was drinking. Yes, 0:43:51.320 --> 0:43:53.279 we know that. And then she was drinking when she 0:43:53.320 --> 0:43:56.560 got there. Okay, that makes sense. She's on her vacation 0:43:56.719 --> 0:43:59.160 with her okay, and then she was drinking at this 0:43:59.239 --> 0:44:01.279 time and she was drink at this time. So they're 0:44:01.320 --> 0:44:07.799 telling us all this, I understand, to imply even though 0:44:07.840 --> 0:44:10.759 they cannot determine because they didn't do any toxicology because 0:44:10.760 --> 0:44:13.520 they couldn't. They didn't examine any of her organs because 0:44:13.520 --> 0:44:16.520 they couldn't, so the autopsy was very limited. They're trying 0:44:16.560 --> 0:44:21.960 to imply by their own context story that she's intoxicated. Okay, 0:44:22.760 --> 0:44:27.200 that's fine, we'll give it intoxication. Then how would they 0:44:27.239 --> 0:44:31.200 be able to then say, oh, witnesses advised us that 0:44:31.320 --> 0:44:35.160 what we're actually seeing is that two people agreed to 0:44:35.239 --> 0:44:40.719 a mutual comment. If she's intoxicated, hot number one, how 0:44:40.800 --> 0:44:44.400 is she going to consent to to to mutual combat 0:44:45.120 --> 0:44:49.919 being beaten to being beaten? No, absolutely, that's what That's 0:44:49.920 --> 0:44:51.800 what we're seeing. That's what we know happened. 0:44:51.880 --> 0:44:54.000 I'm saying, we got trying to be. 0:44:54.000 --> 0:44:56.120 Heard on tape when they tell her to fight back 0:44:56.160 --> 0:44:58.560 and she's saying no, right. 0:44:58.520 --> 0:45:02.040 Because we're all supposed to ignore what we can see 0:45:02.080 --> 0:45:04.560 with our own eyes. That's what we're supposed to do 0:45:04.600 --> 0:45:08.040 and believe that, oh this is the. 0:45:08.239 --> 0:45:11.640 And even if it is, even if it was, which 0:45:11.640 --> 0:45:16.040 it absolutely was not. If you move, if you mutually 0:45:16.120 --> 0:45:18.600 agree to fight someone and the person kills you. 0:45:19.880 --> 0:45:21.960 You responsible murder that person. 0:45:22.280 --> 0:45:26.280 Well here's the thing. Let me just say this, because 0:45:26.320 --> 0:45:33.560 I think the level of disrespect and the game that 0:45:33.680 --> 0:45:38.000 is being played is beyond real. I saw Tina Laws 0:45:38.040 --> 0:45:42.040 and Beyonce It's mother write a long post like this 0:45:42.320 --> 0:45:47.480 shit is ridiculous. It's outrageous what has happened here. And 0:45:47.520 --> 0:45:52.000 it's so sad because in this country we have gone 0:45:52.120 --> 0:45:59.040 from Shanquala Robinson to Ralph y'all so quick that people 0:45:59.400 --> 0:46:02.960 have ship did their attention from last week's thing or 0:46:03.000 --> 0:46:08.400 in between that the Justin's in Tennessee being expelled or 0:46:08.440 --> 0:46:11.640 expawled whatever from their seats. There is so much and 0:46:11.960 --> 0:46:16.239 by the way, during this week, Jalen Walker shot at 0:46:16.360 --> 0:46:19.720 ninety times hit forty something times by police in Akron, 0:46:19.760 --> 0:46:22.879 Ohio is a thing. It's so much shit going on 0:46:23.160 --> 0:46:26.839 that is at this point it's clear that even the 0:46:26.880 --> 0:46:30.960 federal government is playing on the fact that we can't 0:46:30.960 --> 0:46:34.319 stick with one thing but for so long, right right 0:46:34.400 --> 0:46:40.480 and because because because in this situation, nothing you're telling 0:46:40.520 --> 0:46:44.120 me that they're saying makes sense, And I'm gonna tell 0:46:44.120 --> 0:46:47.160 you why. And I've been trying to understand them because 0:46:47.200 --> 0:46:49.960 I'll be telling my son sometimes like, well you kind 0:46:50.000 --> 0:46:51.839 of got to think about this and that, and then 0:46:51.880 --> 0:46:54.480 then the nine he'd be like no, or we both 0:46:54.520 --> 0:46:56.560 will say, well, you know what, that does make sense 0:46:57.000 --> 0:47:00.239 in this situation, Well we are to I know that 0:47:00.320 --> 0:47:03.080 this is how it works because we from the street. 0:47:03.200 --> 0:47:06.080 All of us here, we've been growing and raised in 0:47:06.160 --> 0:47:08.400 the hood. We know how it works. If me and 0:47:08.480 --> 0:47:14.240 you are fighting and I don't continue to fight back, 0:47:15.200 --> 0:47:18.320 and you are beating on me and I'm doing nothing, 0:47:18.880 --> 0:47:24.320 the fight is over. That is that's it. 0:47:24.800 --> 0:47:26.680 That's the rules of a fish. That's a fight that 0:47:26.719 --> 0:47:29.399 we consent to. Once I'm not fighting back anymore, they 0:47:29.400 --> 0:47:31.560 get that's now. 0:47:31.719 --> 0:47:34.560 Everybody goes around talking about, oh, you got your ass whooked, 0:47:34.840 --> 0:47:38.040 and they walk around telling everybody, and everybody hears the story. 0:47:38.080 --> 0:47:38.839 And you stay in the. 0:47:38.760 --> 0:47:42.080 House the rest of the summer because now you've been 0:47:42.120 --> 0:47:45.080 embarrassed as somebody who got beat down and didn't even 0:47:45.080 --> 0:47:47.919 fight back. That is how it works. The people who 0:47:47.960 --> 0:47:51.439 are there, the friends who are standing around, at the 0:47:51.480 --> 0:47:55.000 point that you stop fighting back and you're taking a beating, 0:47:55.120 --> 0:47:58.920 they are supposed to say it's done. It's over, especially 0:47:58.920 --> 0:48:01.880 if all of us were some point supposed to be friends. 0:48:02.160 --> 0:48:08.560 So that's that's that's now, that's the that's not the law, right. 0:48:10.440 --> 0:48:15.200 But if I die, it becomes a legal thing that 0:48:15.280 --> 0:48:19.600 you continue to beat me to the point where I die. 0:48:20.040 --> 0:48:22.800 I mean, here's the thing, here's the problem. 0:48:22.960 --> 0:48:25.080 Two things. One day wasn't in the hood. They was 0:48:25.120 --> 0:48:27.640 in Cabo. They was spending two k a night to 0:48:27.760 --> 0:48:31.600 stay at the spot who were at the Cabo luxury 0:48:32.280 --> 0:48:38.279 mansion saying let's do a fight club. Nobody, Okay, you're 0:48:38.320 --> 0:48:41.080 not doing that because we are chilling, we. 0:48:41.120 --> 0:48:43.600 Are having drinks, we are hanging out. 0:48:43.800 --> 0:48:46.560 Et cetera. Nobody is up here like you know what, y'all, 0:48:46.600 --> 0:48:48.400 let's take it back to the hood, in the in 0:48:48.520 --> 0:48:49.960 the expensive. 0:48:50.120 --> 0:48:51.560 Mansion overlooking the sea. 0:48:51.840 --> 0:48:54.480 Nobody is doing that. So when the FBI is telling 0:48:54.520 --> 0:48:57.840 me some crazy stuff like that, the disrespect is that 0:48:58.040 --> 0:49:01.160 you would think that I would think that that's what 0:49:01.239 --> 0:49:06.719 they were doing on their vacation. So you're disrespecting me 0:49:07.800 --> 0:49:10.200 and black people by stereotyping and saying. 0:49:10.040 --> 0:49:12.480 Well, y'all, you know what y'all do. It don't matter 0:49:12.520 --> 0:49:13.280 where y'all lie. 0:49:13.840 --> 0:49:16.200 It don't matter that y'all are on the luxury vacation 0:49:16.800 --> 0:49:20.920 in a ten star villa with a private chef. 0:49:21.320 --> 0:49:22.359 This is what y'all do. 0:49:25.120 --> 0:49:28.919 This is some deep shit for real. But you gotta 0:49:29.000 --> 0:49:31.960 come back because you need to go. I'm gonna keep 0:49:31.960 --> 0:49:34.120 the time you gave me, so you have to come 0:49:34.160 --> 0:49:36.560 back because we have to continue to break down other 0:49:36.600 --> 0:49:38.479 parts because the next thing we need to talk about 0:49:38.680 --> 0:49:43.160 is what does this mean for Americans traveling abroad who 0:49:43.200 --> 0:49:45.800 believe that there's some type of protection by the American 0:49:45.840 --> 0:49:48.560 government and you happen to be black or a black woman, 0:49:48.640 --> 0:49:52.879 because you know, and by the way, I'm not going 0:49:52.920 --> 0:49:55.319 to Mexico no time soon. I'll tell you that right now, 0:49:55.400 --> 0:49:59.560 because every single few days, twice a week, I've been 0:49:59.560 --> 0:50:06.560 seeing shot killed, captured at sea, kidnapped. That it's not 0:50:06.840 --> 0:50:09.880 the things in Mexico is not going well for American citizens. 0:50:09.920 --> 0:50:11.560 But the last thing I want you to talk about 0:50:11.560 --> 0:50:14.840 before you go is that the family has decided that 0:50:14.880 --> 0:50:17.960 they are not going to let this end here. Is 0:50:18.000 --> 0:50:21.600 it possible that if there's more information that comes out, 0:50:21.960 --> 0:50:26.560 they will be the Feds could change their current position. 0:50:26.760 --> 0:50:29.799 That's one two, because this wouldn't be double jeopardy because 0:50:29.800 --> 0:50:34.080 they haven't charged them. So tell us that ten Mexico's 0:50:34.120 --> 0:50:39.560 still extradite and what is happening on May nineteen, So 0:50:39.920 --> 0:50:43.520 the Feds could indict if they because they said, you know, 0:50:43.760 --> 0:50:46.319 if they get more investigation, that's what they claim, and 0:50:46.360 --> 0:50:48.880 more information, that's what they put in their statement. So 0:50:48.960 --> 0:50:52.759 they're leaving that door open, which again goes to what 0:50:52.800 --> 0:50:55.399 we said from the very beginning. We're expected to carve 0:50:55.440 --> 0:50:57.359 our own path to justice. They want us to do 0:50:57.440 --> 0:51:00.440 their job, so they're not investigating the case. They're like, oh, 0:51:00.520 --> 0:51:02.319 y'all figure it out and then if you bring us 0:51:02.360 --> 0:51:04.319 everything wrapped in the bow, we'll see what we can do. 0:51:04.440 --> 0:51:05.719 Okay, no problem, got you. 0:51:07.239 --> 0:51:10.200 In terms of the extradition, what the family is asking 0:51:10.239 --> 0:51:12.960 for now is for a high level of diplomatic intervention 0:51:13.320 --> 0:51:17.200 in order to prioritize Shainpula's case so that the extra 0:51:17.680 --> 0:51:21.800 extradition process can move forward. Because Mexico indicated that they've 0:51:21.840 --> 0:51:25.680 completed their packet, they've completed their investigation, which we attached 0:51:25.800 --> 0:51:29.200 some of the investigative documents to the letter. So they're like, hey, 0:51:29.480 --> 0:51:33.560 we've already identified as suspect, we're ready to extradite the person. 0:51:33.800 --> 0:51:37.920 We've submitted. We're waiting for you all well, specifically for 0:51:37.960 --> 0:51:41.319 the Department of State to approve the extradition documents. So 0:51:41.400 --> 0:51:43.640 we're saying, listen, if you don't want to press your 0:51:43.640 --> 0:51:48.200 own charges, facilitate and prioritize the extradition process and let 0:51:48.239 --> 0:51:51.239 them get on. Let them get on and be prosecuted 0:51:51.280 --> 0:51:54.640 in Mexico, and that makes sense so for us, and 0:51:54.719 --> 0:51:57.000 what the family is doing and what until Freedom in 0:51:57.040 --> 0:51:59.880 the Community is doing is that on May nineteenth, we 0:52:00.080 --> 0:52:03.280 are going to rally in the US capital and walk 0:52:03.360 --> 0:52:06.040 to the State Department to essentially demand on the two 0:52:06.160 --> 0:52:09.759 hundred day that this takes place, that the case we prioritize, 0:52:09.800 --> 0:52:13.440 and that the person that Mexico has already identified, already 0:52:13.480 --> 0:52:17.719 submitted a packet for, already done their own investigation, be 0:52:17.880 --> 0:52:23.000 extra diuieted to Mexico so that someone who participated in 0:52:23.040 --> 0:52:26.960 this horrific crime is held accountable. 0:52:29.160 --> 0:52:32.439 Sounds and I. 0:52:32.360 --> 0:52:34.920 Just want to say we appreciate you for, you know, 0:52:35.440 --> 0:52:38.680 taking the rains on this and really just every day. 0:52:38.760 --> 0:52:41.319 I know I've been watching you, you know, going to 0:52:41.440 --> 0:52:46.600 Mexico nights, you know, calling Tamika days. Look, this was 0:52:46.640 --> 0:52:49.200 going on you like, y'all y'all really serious, man, and 0:52:50.160 --> 0:52:53.440 I and I love to see how you know, we're 0:52:53.480 --> 0:52:55.239 fighting for black women. I just want you to know 0:52:55.280 --> 0:52:58.719 I got your back. This woman deserves justice. And the 0:52:58.760 --> 0:53:02.880 fact that I would quote unquote Justice Department in FBI 0:53:03.400 --> 0:53:04.160 don't see that. 0:53:04.480 --> 0:53:06.520 It's just it's just it's a disgrace, man. 0:53:06.560 --> 0:53:09.200 So we're gonna keep on fighting and fight don't stop, 0:53:09.320 --> 0:53:12.239 you know, you know one monkey, don't stop, no show. 0:53:12.320 --> 0:53:13.319 That's how they say it. Man. 0:53:13.360 --> 0:53:15.560 So we go on to the next thing. You know, 0:53:15.640 --> 0:53:17.840 if we got to get extradition in Mexico, got to 0:53:17.880 --> 0:53:19.440 do it. But we ain't gonna stop. 0:53:19.480 --> 0:53:23.040 So May nineteen, May nineteen, and I just want to 0:53:23.040 --> 0:53:26.000 say that, you know, Massan, thank you for the constant 0:53:26.000 --> 0:53:29.120 support Attorney Trump. You know, he had the family with him, 0:53:29.120 --> 0:53:32.959 I think in North Carolina or somewhere recently, making sure 0:53:33.000 --> 0:53:35.120 that they get the type of attention people don't. They 0:53:35.120 --> 0:53:37.920 want to know why Ben Frump, because when Ben moves, 0:53:37.960 --> 0:53:40.799 the media moves with him, and cases that would never 0:53:40.880 --> 0:53:45.960 get attention, they get some awareness brought to those matters 0:53:46.000 --> 0:53:49.520 because Attorney Crump, you know, is out there on the 0:53:49.520 --> 0:53:53.040 front line. So thank you, Attorney Robinson. Please go take 0:53:53.120 --> 0:53:55.200 care of your business for the day we already made 0:53:55.239 --> 0:53:59.520 you three minutes late. I appreciate you, and you be safe, 0:54:00.120 --> 0:54:01.359 love you, Sorry, well you. 0:54:01.320 --> 0:54:07.279 I appreciate you. Guys. Hope to see be blessed. 0:54:09.400 --> 0:54:12.239 I mean, if that's not a crock of bullshit, I 0:54:12.280 --> 0:54:14.480 am and you know, some people are gonna say no 0:54:14.520 --> 0:54:16.800 because you don't know the law and this and that. Listen, 0:54:17.600 --> 0:54:19.680 the law I have used me. 0:54:19.960 --> 0:54:23.839 The law has taken young black men's lives for way 0:54:23.920 --> 0:54:26.520 less than that ship. The law has locked us up, 0:54:26.680 --> 0:54:29.480 thrown away the key for ship that's less than that. 0:54:29.880 --> 0:54:33.120 But hearing the voice that somebody's. 0:54:32.560 --> 0:54:38.720 Saying made up, that's trumped up, no pun intended. 0:54:39.320 --> 0:54:42.240 So it's just for me, it's just like I don't understand. 0:54:42.280 --> 0:54:45.400 Excuse me, I don't understand what's going on here. But 0:54:45.480 --> 0:54:47.880 I do understand what's going on here because this is America. 0:54:48.400 --> 0:54:51.480 You know, this is what America does. They show us 0:54:51.520 --> 0:54:55.600 every day how they don't value us, you know, and 0:54:55.640 --> 0:54:59.120 my cadoleas is again to Shinquella's family. But you know, 0:54:59.120 --> 0:55:01.440 we're gonna keep fighting, man, We're gonna keep on fighting. 0:55:01.520 --> 0:55:04.760 I believe like they say, I believe that we were winning. 0:55:04.800 --> 0:55:06.640 We just keep on fighting. May nineteenth. 0:55:07.160 --> 0:55:10.239 I never in my life believed that they were gonna 0:55:10.280 --> 0:55:13.439 do the right thing for Shamfaulla. I never believed it. 0:55:13.840 --> 0:55:14.440 I'm not gonna. 0:55:15.000 --> 0:55:18.520 I actually thought this was open and shut, and I 0:55:18.600 --> 0:55:20.359 started to get myself. 0:55:20.080 --> 0:55:22.800 As Listen, these are other black people. They they'll protect 0:55:22.840 --> 0:55:23.320 their people. 0:55:23.480 --> 0:55:26.120 No, I didn't believe. You know why, But I didn't 0:55:26.120 --> 0:55:29.200 believe it. But I tell you this much. Once people 0:55:29.200 --> 0:55:32.160 started to get involved and folks start really calling it out, 0:55:32.320 --> 0:55:34.960 and Ben and Swinn decided to take on the case, 0:55:35.120 --> 0:55:37.600 I was like, Okay, now we're getting somewhere. But from 0:55:37.680 --> 0:55:43.560 day one I was concerned because I when they originally 0:55:43.640 --> 0:55:46.400 came out with a statement before we saw the video 0:55:46.920 --> 0:55:50.600 saying that there was no foul play and case was closed. 0:55:50.719 --> 0:55:53.359 I already knew right then they didn't even try. They 0:55:53.400 --> 0:55:56.720 didn't even try, so I knew what we were dealing 0:55:56.760 --> 0:56:01.560 with from that, from that exam, they already had a 0:56:01.600 --> 0:56:04.600 statement out before the video was even released that there 0:56:04.640 --> 0:56:07.440 was no foul play and it was done right. This 0:56:07.600 --> 0:56:11.799 was based upon whatever initial whatever, whatever, whatever. So how 0:56:11.960 --> 0:56:16.839 why would I believe that after some days they would 0:56:16.840 --> 0:56:19.640 come back and say, Okay, we saw the video and 0:56:19.680 --> 0:56:21.680 now we're going to do something. I mean, I wanted 0:56:21.680 --> 0:56:24.400 to believe that, but they have shown us over and 0:56:24.480 --> 0:56:26.799 over and over again to your point that we just 0:56:26.880 --> 0:56:29.839 don't we can't get We cannot get the type of 0:56:29.960 --> 0:56:33.560 respect and justice that is consistent because the same Department 0:56:33.560 --> 0:56:35.960 and Justice. We've had many days when we've had to 0:56:36.000 --> 0:56:39.040 talk about how we appreciate the fact that some things 0:56:39.080 --> 0:56:42.640 have moved forward and there has been accountability in a 0:56:42.680 --> 0:56:44.880 few cases. And so some people would say, well, you 0:56:44.920 --> 0:56:47.560 can't win them all. No, you can't win them all. 0:56:47.760 --> 0:56:52.319 But in this situation, we are these eyes. You see, 0:56:52.320 --> 0:56:56.040 these eyes are pretty white today. 0:56:56.080 --> 0:56:57.880 We've seen them with the eyebows. We've seen them with 0:56:57.920 --> 0:56:58.760 our own eyeboat. 0:56:59.120 --> 0:57:02.000 Because of the fact that they did not take it 0:57:02.120 --> 0:57:05.360 seriously and do something to figure out from the beginning 0:57:05.800 --> 0:57:10.640 what was going on. They because this statement is out 0:57:10.680 --> 0:57:14.880 again before the video, so that means that she dies, 0:57:15.719 --> 0:57:19.800 the US is informed, and they make a determination based 0:57:19.880 --> 0:57:23.640 upon Mexico and America at that time said oh, nothing happened, 0:57:24.200 --> 0:57:27.560 and they go forward with putting out a statement that 0:57:27.680 --> 0:57:30.840 says no foul play. Well, in the midst of all 0:57:30.960 --> 0:57:34.880 that they're losing time before bodies being in her body, 0:57:34.920 --> 0:57:38.800 being in balm and all these other things, they're losing 0:57:38.960 --> 0:57:42.400 time to be able to do the proper autosi that 0:57:42.440 --> 0:57:45.960 would help them determine all the things that happened to 0:57:46.040 --> 0:57:49.840 her and the cause of death. So time played a 0:57:50.000 --> 0:57:55.240 role in why Shanquala Robinson is not getting the accountability 0:57:55.240 --> 0:57:59.840 from the American government that she deserves, definitely. 0:58:00.160 --> 0:58:02.000 And then when you talk about them putting the body 0:58:02.040 --> 0:58:04.400 back together, and then I'm saying that the net was 0:58:04.440 --> 0:58:08.720 never separate, like, well, dug, I mean, but it's just 0:58:08.800 --> 0:58:11.320 it's just, you know, it's so much going on, man, 0:58:11.400 --> 0:58:12.440 and it's terrible. 0:58:13.280 --> 0:58:15.880 It's just stupid. It's just really stupid, man. 0:58:16.800 --> 0:58:22.360 But yeah, it's called mass My family member ain't number mess. 0:58:22.480 --> 0:58:27.840 That number mess onto onto before before I get into 0:58:27.880 --> 0:58:28.960 my I don't get it. 0:58:29.000 --> 0:58:31.440 I wanted to just give a shout out, you know, 0:58:32.280 --> 0:58:34.640 you know, I'm a big sports fan. Yesterday I was 0:58:34.720 --> 0:58:37.320 just in the house after taking my sons to the 0:58:37.400 --> 0:58:39.360 soccer game and watching. 0:58:39.040 --> 0:58:40.960 Them play all day. I was in the house and 0:58:40.960 --> 0:58:42.120 I was watching. 0:58:43.280 --> 0:58:48.160 The Clippers versus the Phoenix game, which was a dope game. 0:58:48.200 --> 0:58:50.800 Shout out to both teams. They played hard. But I 0:58:50.920 --> 0:58:54.400 just I really just wanted to give flowers to somebody. 0:58:54.560 --> 0:58:58.640 And because I watched and and so many ways the 0:58:58.720 --> 0:59:02.720 individual minds me and my out right Russell Westbrook. Right, 0:59:04.200 --> 0:59:10.640 Russell Westbrook is a Hall of Fame, you know, point guard, 0:59:11.600 --> 0:59:14.480 and he's been through the last couple of years. He's 0:59:14.480 --> 0:59:16.840 been through a lot. You know, he went to the 0:59:16.920 --> 0:59:19.840 Lakers and everybody's trying to say he's the cause of 0:59:19.840 --> 0:59:21.960 why they weren't winning. He wasn't playing good, he wasn't 0:59:22.000 --> 0:59:24.440 the people trying to throw them away. They try to 0:59:24.480 --> 0:59:27.560 disrespect him. You got lower level players who have never 0:59:27.560 --> 0:59:31.320 accomplished with these he's accomplished. You got fans disrespecting them. 0:59:31.480 --> 0:59:35.000 You got to make articles about him, everything you could 0:59:35.040 --> 0:59:41.200 think of, and through it all, Russell Westbrook has never 0:59:41.320 --> 0:59:44.480 lost confidence in him like what. 0:59:44.560 --> 0:59:46.840 It takes to be that level of it. Like you 0:59:47.400 --> 0:59:49.480 will watch other. 0:59:49.440 --> 0:59:53.479 Individuals that when they're being criticized and they're not playing good, 0:59:53.960 --> 0:59:57.200 You'll watch them start to lose their own confidence. They 0:59:57.240 --> 0:59:59.800 start to shy away from the moment. They want to 0:59:59.840 --> 1:00:02.200 do less. They just happy to be there. You know, 1:00:02.200 --> 1:00:04.720 they're not taking as many shots. They gonna take two 1:00:04.760 --> 1:00:07.080 shots if they open, they say, I'm not gonna take 1:00:07.120 --> 1:00:11.280 the shot. Russell Westbrook does not have that mentality. He 1:00:11.400 --> 1:00:14.760 has the fearlessness and the heart of a lion. Just 1:00:14.800 --> 1:00:17.240 watching him play every day. If you back up from 1:00:17.320 --> 1:00:20.200 Russell Westbrook, he gonna take the shot. He don't give 1:00:20.240 --> 1:00:23.280 fuck how many people tell me he can't shoot. He 1:00:23.480 --> 1:00:27.120 has a mentality that is only a warrior's mentality, and 1:00:27.240 --> 1:00:31.280 yesterday watching him play, it just made me respect. 1:00:30.960 --> 1:00:32.120 Him so much more. 1:00:32.440 --> 1:00:35.520 He's been traded from the Lakers to the Clippers, and 1:00:35.640 --> 1:00:40.480 watching how he's moved continue to be great, Like he 1:00:41.080 --> 1:00:44.080 pretty much won that game. He did little things that 1:00:44.480 --> 1:00:47.800 if you watch the game and you understand basketball, he 1:00:47.840 --> 1:00:49.920 played a level of defense and the level of intense 1:00:50.000 --> 1:00:52.800 with the level of intensity that nobody else could match, 1:00:53.400 --> 1:00:56.520 because in his mind, he's always the best player on 1:00:56.520 --> 1:00:58.440 the field. I don't give a fuck. The man was 1:00:58.480 --> 1:01:02.800 three for nineteen yesterday he missed. That means he only 1:01:02.880 --> 1:01:05.920 hit three shots out of nineteen. He missed sixteen shots. 1:01:06.240 --> 1:01:08.640 But never did he not take the shots, never did 1:01:08.640 --> 1:01:10.960 he not want the ball, never did he stop being 1:01:11.000 --> 1:01:14.280 aggressive that whole game. He made the biggest defensive play 1:01:14.320 --> 1:01:16.880 of the game and didn't hit two crutch free throws 1:01:17.040 --> 1:01:18.880 that stealed that game. And I just want to give 1:01:19.680 --> 1:01:22.840 give the flowers to Russ because Russ has taken so much. 1:01:23.280 --> 1:01:25.640 And I was watching him and I was looking at 1:01:25.640 --> 1:01:27.240 his eyes, and I know what that is. I know 1:01:27.280 --> 1:01:29.240 when people try to throw you away and tell you 1:01:29.320 --> 1:01:31.600 not as good, and this and that ball off and 1:01:31.640 --> 1:01:33.520 this and that and you and when you have this 1:01:33.680 --> 1:01:36.080 undying belief in you and you know that you're great, 1:01:36.680 --> 1:01:39.000 That's what Russell represents. So I just want to shout 1:01:39.040 --> 1:01:41.680 him out, you know, I want to say, your fearlessness 1:01:41.920 --> 1:01:45.120 and the level of heart that you have is I 1:01:45.160 --> 1:01:48.800 don't think I've seen I've seen some great players, right, 1:01:48.840 --> 1:01:53.080 I've seen great players that when it was told that 1:01:53.160 --> 1:01:55.880 they didn't have it no more and they had not 1:01:56.040 --> 1:01:57.560 just that he was total that they didn't have it 1:01:57.560 --> 1:01:57.959 no more. 1:01:58.120 --> 1:02:01.120 He went to a team right where it wasn't his team. 1:02:01.160 --> 1:02:03.160 Because most of the great players, they stay on the 1:02:03.200 --> 1:02:06.400 team that's their team. So when they getting criticized, they 1:02:06.400 --> 1:02:08.360 still could take forty and fifty shots a game. They 1:02:08.400 --> 1:02:11.160 still starting every game, so they able to the coach 1:02:11.240 --> 1:02:13.240 is still telling me your year. But he went on a 1:02:13.280 --> 1:02:16.480 team where you started to see that they was losing 1:02:16.520 --> 1:02:19.680 confidence in this game, and he never lost confidence in him. 1:02:19.960 --> 1:02:22.200 He still went out there with the same energy and 1:02:22.280 --> 1:02:24.680 went to the next team. And now the level that 1:02:24.720 --> 1:02:27.560 he's playing at and the heart that he always plays 1:02:27.560 --> 1:02:29.640 with is just unmatchment. So I just wanted to shout 1:02:29.720 --> 1:02:32.160 him out and say, man, Russ, continue to do because 1:02:32.160 --> 1:02:34.439 it's inspirational for me watching you. And I was watching 1:02:34.520 --> 1:02:37.480 him yesterday and he was just playing with the energy 1:02:37.560 --> 1:02:41.880 that was unmatched. I don't care how big you was, nothing. 1:02:42.360 --> 1:02:46.000 Russ plays with the energy in that game, with the 1:02:46.040 --> 1:02:48.560 belief in himself that I don't think I've ever seen 1:02:48.640 --> 1:02:49.960 any other basketball player. 1:02:50.040 --> 1:02:51.000 I've seen the greats. 1:02:51.200 --> 1:02:54.520 I don't think that Michael Jordan in his final season 1:02:54.560 --> 1:02:57.840 when he was on walk the Wizards, was playing with 1:02:57.960 --> 1:03:01.120 the level of belief in his game that that Russy 1:03:01.200 --> 1:03:03.360 Westwood plays it. So I just want to say shout. 1:03:03.120 --> 1:03:05.480 Out to Russ. It was a big one yesterday, man, 1:03:05.520 --> 1:03:08.360 and it was motivational just watching you, you know. So 1:03:08.400 --> 1:03:09.280 I just wanted to say. 1:03:09.120 --> 1:03:10.880 That that's amazing. 1:03:11.400 --> 1:03:14.000 It is it is. It is amazing, man. 1:03:14.040 --> 1:03:16.440 You just if you were to watched that game and 1:03:16.600 --> 1:03:19.040 just know what Russ has been through and watch all 1:03:19.120 --> 1:03:21.439 the games he gets criticized or why is he taking 1:03:21.440 --> 1:03:21.760 the shot? 1:03:21.800 --> 1:03:24.120 Because he always believes he gonna make the shot. 1:03:24.400 --> 1:03:28.360 And now that you somewhere in his life there is 1:03:29.400 --> 1:03:33.720 a group and particularly a black woman or many black 1:03:33.760 --> 1:03:35.840 women who believe in him that tell him that he's 1:03:35.840 --> 1:03:37.959 great every single day, bro. 1:03:38.360 --> 1:03:42.800 I hope so because he definitely believes it, and watching 1:03:42.840 --> 1:03:45.960 him play, he believes that there's nobody better than him 1:03:45.960 --> 1:03:49.360 on that court at any given time. He's not gonna 1:03:49.360 --> 1:03:51.880 be swayed. You're not gonna talk about the game. He's 1:03:51.880 --> 1:03:54.640 not gonna have one bit of fear. He gonna step up, 1:03:54.640 --> 1:03:57.000 he gonna play the best player. He's gonna play defense, 1:03:57.200 --> 1:03:59.040 he gonna out rebound seven foot this. 1:03:59.400 --> 1:04:01.000 He just gonna do everything it takes to win. 1:04:01.120 --> 1:04:02.960 So you know, that's the type of person I want 1:04:03.040 --> 1:04:05.320 with me and a bunker and a dog fight back 1:04:05.360 --> 1:04:08.440 to back because you know, when los A draw, he 1:04:08.600 --> 1:04:10.720 gonna be there with you, man, So shout out to 1:04:10.800 --> 1:04:15.000 him and that. So with my I don't get it. 1:04:21.800 --> 1:04:24.720 So you know, I'll always have conversations with people are 1:04:24.760 --> 1:04:31.760 going all online and you know, and there is this 1:04:31.760 --> 1:04:35.760 this notion, right, there's this notion that comes and I 1:04:35.760 --> 1:04:37.120 don't know where it came from. 1:04:37.840 --> 1:04:39.360 I think I know where it came from. 1:04:39.400 --> 1:04:46.040 I think it came from individuals who have low self esteem, who. 1:04:47.360 --> 1:04:50.880 Who who try to hide weakness, who. 1:04:53.080 --> 1:04:58.080 Who actually are afraid, you know, who feel under accomplished 1:04:58.160 --> 1:05:01.240 or whatever it is. But there's the this notion that 1:05:01.600 --> 1:05:07.280 because people have money, or they have things, or you know, 1:05:07.320 --> 1:05:12.760 they have possessions, that they're somehow better than someone else, right, 1:05:13.120 --> 1:05:19.120 And that notion, to me, I vehemently despise it. I 1:05:19.520 --> 1:05:22.800 denounce it. I deny it, and I always say it's 1:05:22.800 --> 1:05:25.880 not it's not what a person possesses, the content of 1:05:25.880 --> 1:05:31.560 an individual's character. And you know, we become so overwhelmed 1:05:31.600 --> 1:05:34.640 by what people possess in today's society that. 1:05:34.640 --> 1:05:36.959 We overlook good people moral. 1:05:36.640 --> 1:05:40.440 And integrity, you know, the same way. I don't just 1:05:40.560 --> 1:05:42.840 respect like I don't. I don't care about how much 1:05:42.920 --> 1:05:45.520 money you got. I don't care how much things you have, 1:05:45.960 --> 1:05:47.840 Just like when the dudes in the street come to 1:05:47.840 --> 1:05:49.919 me and say I'm a shooter and I shot this one. 1:05:50.400 --> 1:05:52.560 I don't care about none of that shit. None of 1:05:52.560 --> 1:05:54.640 that shit don't mean nothing to me. I'm not scared, 1:05:54.680 --> 1:05:58.080 I'm not impressed. None of those things mean Uh. I 1:05:58.200 --> 1:06:01.120 want to talk about the individual you are. You know, 1:06:01.120 --> 1:06:03.480 what kind of friend on you of, what kind of 1:06:03.560 --> 1:06:05.480 heart do you have, what kind of morals do you have? 1:06:05.880 --> 1:06:08.840 That's what divine's and individual And I'm so I just 1:06:08.920 --> 1:06:11.880 really don't get why we allow in this day and 1:06:11.960 --> 1:06:14.960 age that as soon as we start talking about things 1:06:15.440 --> 1:06:17.880 that have to do with character, things that have to 1:06:17.920 --> 1:06:21.680 do with who an individual really is, that some weak 1:06:21.800 --> 1:06:24.560 individual wants to tell me how much money someone has, 1:06:25.000 --> 1:06:26.320 you know, And I really don't get it. 1:06:26.760 --> 1:06:27.800 And I want to say. 1:06:27.640 --> 1:06:30.320 To my young kings and queens, don't let nobody try 1:06:30.320 --> 1:06:32.760 to make you feel less than because they may have 1:06:32.800 --> 1:06:37.040 more than you. Right, because all those things, I've watched 1:06:37.400 --> 1:06:40.160 millionaires have millions and millions. 1:06:39.920 --> 1:06:42.240 Of dollars and go to nothing and have zero. 1:06:42.600 --> 1:06:45.040 But I never seen a person who is a good 1:06:45.120 --> 1:06:49.479 character and integrity ever lose that I've seen. I've seen 1:06:49.520 --> 1:06:52.320 millionaires who was pieces of shit lose all their money 1:06:52.360 --> 1:06:54.360 and still be a piece of shit. When you're a 1:06:54.400 --> 1:06:57.280 good individual, when you're a good when you're a personal 1:06:57.400 --> 1:07:02.320 good moral fiber and integrity and strong character, you can 1:07:02.360 --> 1:07:06.040 lose a million dollars and still be wealthy. Right, some 1:07:06.040 --> 1:07:08.040 people are so poor all they have is money. So 1:07:08.080 --> 1:07:11.000 don't let nobody think or make you think because you 1:07:11.040 --> 1:07:14.520 don't have possessions, that somehow they're better than you, or 1:07:14.560 --> 1:07:14.959 they have. 1:07:14.920 --> 1:07:17.960 Some level something over you.

This is why crime raises so how 1:07:25.640 --> 1:07:29.040 because they're trying to They're trying to get the possessions. 1:07:29.400 --> 1:07:31.360 You know that I want to have the money like 1:07:31.400 --> 1:07:33.360 somebody else. If I had the money, then I could 1:07:33.360 --> 1:07:37.120 be this person. No, be this person, be that person, 1:07:37.200 --> 1:07:39.680 Be a person of good character. You know, when you 1:07:39.720 --> 1:07:41.640 do the things the right way and you and you 1:07:41.680 --> 1:07:46.920 live your life in a respectful manner, you're gain the 1:07:46.960 --> 1:07:50.760 money gonna come. But don't don't don't lose yourself trying to, 1:07:51.120 --> 1:07:53.400 you know, to to compete or make somebody make you 1:07:53.400 --> 1:07:55.840 feel like you less than because you don't have possessions.

You know what I'm saying. 1:09:41.040 --> 1:09:43.040 That's one of the most famous pictures of Harry. You 1:09:43.080 --> 1:09:45.559 see Harriet with the braids or the head dress.

It was it 1:09:56.360 --> 1:09:58.920 was her braids. I definitely know she used to wear 1:09:58.920 --> 1:10:02.519 a headdress and like a twist, but she did. 1:10:03.280 --> 1:10:04.920 I know, I see one with the head dress. 1:10:05.280 --> 1:10:11.280 Yeah, because Harriet, I mean Rosa Parks wore hats and 1:10:11.320 --> 1:10:14.120 then she wore like a braided thing.
