1
00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:05,440
Speaker 1: The Jewel Show on demand. Today's International Women's Day. It's

2
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 1: the Jewel Show. I do have something that I would

3
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:12,880
Speaker 1: like to say. Actually wrote an open letter from me too. Women.

4
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: Look that because I don't know if you can tell

5
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 1: I'm not a woman. Oh so I can't really speak

6
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 1: from the same experience as a woman. So I wrote

7
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:26,599
Speaker 1: a letter from my perspective to women for International Women's Day. Okay,

8
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: I love that beautiful. If you want to read and

9
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 1: share it with other women, you can go find it

10
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: on our social at the Jewel Show or my personal

11
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:37,519
Speaker 1: social at Jewel Fresh. And then, um, okay, this is awkward,

12
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:41,520
Speaker 1: so I'll start reading my letter. So I just don't

13
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 1: know how to be like, hey, hey everybody, here's the

14
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,479
Speaker 1: letter I wrote for you. Okay, so here, I'll just

15
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 1: read my open letter. Maybe two women, all right? Here

16
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,599
Speaker 1: he goes, here, he goes, okay, two women. I'm not

17
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 1: sure if you can tell. I've used this show three

18
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 1: times now. I don't care. I put it in my letter.

19
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna use it again. I'm not sure if you

20
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 1: can tell I'm not a woman. There are many reasons

21
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: that I can think of that I wish I was

22
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: a woman. As a matter of fact, I've always taken

23
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:09,319
Speaker 1: a stand against my toxic masculine friends by being comfortable

24
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,760
Speaker 1: admitting that being sitting down is way more relaxing and

25
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 1: everybody should do it. I'm also somebody who has been

26
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,759
Speaker 1: unheard and not seen a lot in my life. So

27
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 1: whenever days like this roll around and people go, what

28
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 1: are you going to talk about for International Women's Day?

29
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 1: I go, I have no business speaking about it. I

30
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: don't mean that I want to stay quiet about my

31
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,119
Speaker 1: belief that everybody in this world deserves an equal shot

32
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: at shining, and that we live in a world where, unfortunately,

33
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 1: a lot of humans haven't learned that just because something

34
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: is different than you and you don't understand it, means

35
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 1: that you have to set up systems in order to

36
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: hold it down and oppress it. I'm a dude, I've

37
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: been one my whole life, and I've seen and heard

38
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: a lot of conversations that are proof that being a

39
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: woman in this world is a special kind of struggle

40
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: that males can't relate to. If you're a dude listening

41
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 1: to me right now and going, what are you talking about?

42
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: Women get all the same rights as me. Fact is,

43
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: they don't, and more than just in the workplace and

44
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: in other areas of life, being a woman means that

45
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: there's extra work and extra steps with everything that a

46
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 1: lot of dudes take for granted. For example, when I

47
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,519
Speaker 1: pump my gas at the gas station, I feel safe.

48
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,679
Speaker 1: What a lot of guys don't think about is that

49
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:42,919
Speaker 1: women have been oppressed and dominated throughout history, So those

50
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: little daily tasks like pumping gas involve more than just

51
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:52,799
Speaker 1: hopping out of the car. Men have it better with

52
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: a lot of things. It's a luxury that most of

53
00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: us don't even realize we have. And personally, I don't

54
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: thank the men that came before me for that luxury.

55
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: I wish they were never weak minded. I wish they

56
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: were quote unquote man enough to handle women actually being

57
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: equal and letting the best person win. We should not

58
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 1: live in a world with any inequality, but because of

59
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: those feeble, egoed men, it's where we are still. I

60
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: do know that we've come a long way. I also

61
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 1: know that we can all do better, and because I

62
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: see the world as mostly good, I think we are

63
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: doing better as a whole, and the world is slowly

64
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: waking up. One of the problems is the world is

65
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 1: not an early riser though, the world is more of

66
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: a hit snooze about seven hundred times and think about

67
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: calling in sick until there's no choice but to get

68
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: out of bed type of waker upper. So I want

69
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: to say on International Women's Day that at least from

70
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: this guy, you are seen to the women who are

71
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: running countries and businesses and proving that everybody deserves an

72
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: equal shot. You continue to build roads and bridges that

73
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: pave the way for the future use. And I see

74
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: you to the women who are given little credit for

75
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: the eighteen tasks that you have to juggle at one time,

76
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 1: all while hearing the word mom, mom, Mom, mom, mom,

77
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: over and over and over again. I don't know how

78
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: you haven't snapped and moved to a remote desert where

79
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: nobody can never say the word mom to you ever. Again.

80
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 1: I don't know how you do it. What you do

81
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: is impressive and it takes strength, kindness, and patience. Please

82
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: know that I see you. I would never want to

83
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: be you, which is why we need you. I also

84
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: know that you make things tick, and I see you

85
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: to the women who breathe the same air as me,

86
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 1: air that we all breathe, and for some reason, there

87
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: are still people who think their lungs deserve the oxygen

88
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: more than you. Those people are wrong, and I see you.

89
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: Please know that I believe that everybody in this world

90
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 1: who is oppressed in any way is because they are powerful,

91
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: and the weak only know how to try to keep

92
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: you down by oppressive domination. Here's the thing, though, they

93
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:15,040
Speaker 1: are ultimately weak and you, you are powerful. They are

94
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 1: darkness and you are light. And a pinhole of light

95
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: will always shine in a valley of darkness. So if

96
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,919
Speaker 1: you're struggling to be seen, know that it's because you

97
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: are powerful. Shine your light, no matter how small it

98
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 1: may feel to you, and the world will see it too.

99
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: You are powerful, You are seen. Should I do sincerely

100
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,640
