I mean he's never shot away from it. 94 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 2: Just like how people may feel about him his movies 95 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 2: and whatnot. I think he's always been outspoken about race 96 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 2: when it comes to people get you know, get up 97 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 2: in arms or whatever with hit some of his movies 98 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 2: and the decisions that he makes. But you can never 99 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 2: say that he didn't talk about it. You know, you 100 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 2: agree to didn't disagree, right you like him or not?

Forty 112 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 2: white actors in two years and no flavor at all, 113 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 2: and he did spell. 114 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 3: Flavor f L A v A. 115 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 2: We can't act? What the fuck? It's not coincidence. I'm 116 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 2: writing this as we celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of doctor 117 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 2: Martin Luther King, Junior's birthday. Doctor King said, because the 118 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 2: time when one must make take a position that is 119 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 2: neither safe nor public, I mean, nor safe, nor politic, 120 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 2: politic nor popular, but he must take it because conscience 121 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 2: tells him it is right. For too many years, when 122 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 2: the Oscar nominations are revealed, my office phone rings out 123 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 2: the hook with the media asking me for my opinion 124 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 2: about the lack of African Americans. And this year was 125 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 2: no different. For once, maybe I would like the media 126 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 2: to ask all the white nominees about the studio and 127 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,559 Speaker 2: studio heads how they feel about another all white ballot. 128 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 4: Come on, now, if. 129 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 2: Someone has addressed this and I missed it, then I 130 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 2: still mistaken. It's a good point. It is always weird 131 00:06:55,520 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 2: when people don't get to the you know, to that 132 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 2: part of the discussion where it's like, you know, if 133 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 2: you really want to fix this shit, white people have 134 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 2: to be involved too, and they have to care. 135 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 3: The problem. 136 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 2: Always said, what you know diversity initiatives is someone got 137 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 2: to give up a seat. 138 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 3: Very few people in this. 139 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 2: World are designed to give up something for someone else 140 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 2: that doesn't benefit them in a monetary or substantial way. 141 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 2: It only benefits the like it benefits them in this 142 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 2: way where it's like, I can't really say that my 143 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,239 Speaker 2: award was ever the best one. I know that nobody 144 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 2: else is considered for being black, so I can never 145 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 2: say I had to the Oscar. When I win the 146 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 2: Oscar that year, I know that they don't even consider 147 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 2: black people. 148 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 3: So it's like, how prestigious. 149 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 2: Is my award? You know, that's the only benefit I 150 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 2: can see people having. But in general, people don't think 151 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 2: like that. So it'll just be like, so I might 152 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 2: not win an Oscar because they nominate some other nigga, 153 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 2: Now what, I don't want to do that. As I 154 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 2: see it, the Academy Awards is not where the real 155 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 2: and put real and quot battle is.

Now, 177 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 2: I don't know what the recording situation was on it. 178 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 2: You know, like she was just in her house. Maybe 179 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 2: she had on a tripod or something or something. But 180 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 2: it wasn't somebody like hope, hold on, It wasn't somebody 181 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 2: on the camera. 182 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 3: It was clearly like she said, somewhere. 183 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, she has a crew. 184 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, it don't seem like she had a crew or anything. 185 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 2: She's just sitting on her couch discussing it. That's very 186 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 2: important because I want to come back to it. Also, 187 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 2: the audio call, it leaves something to be desired. So 188 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to turn this way up. So okay, 189 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 2: we can't talk while this is playing. It's about two 190 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 2: and a half minutes.

That maybe it's 200 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:52,319 Speaker 6: time that we recognize if we love and respect in 201 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 6: ourselves in the way in which was getting others to 202 00:10:55,040 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 6: do that, that is the place of true power. I'm 203 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 6: simply asking question, here's what I believe. 204 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 4: And he has the. 205 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 6: Right to acknowledge whoever they choose, to invite them, whoever 206 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 6: they choose. And now I think that it's our responsibility 207 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 6: now to make the change. Maybe it is time to 208 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 6: pull back our resources and we put them back. 209 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 7: Into our communities, into our programs, and we make programs 210 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 7: for ourselves that acknowledge us in ways that we sit 211 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 7: that all mainstream ones. 212 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 4: I don't know. 213 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 8: Here's what I do though. 214 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 6: Begging for acknowledgement or even asking diminishes and diminishes power. 215 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 6: And we are dignified people and we are powerful. 216 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 8: And let's not forget it.

I don't know if they 234 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,479 Speaker 2: were gonna do any level of uh. 235 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 3: Presentation or anything, right, they probably were, Yeah, well that's 236 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 3: not I'm assuming that that won't happen or they'll play 237 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 3: a video, because I believe he already got it at 238 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 3: a luncheon a couple of weeks ago before the before 239 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 3: the nominations weren't out, so you know, now you know, 240 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 3: if they were going to do something, he won't. 241 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:17,559 Speaker 2: Be there for that shit. But anyway, but it sounds 242 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 2: like he's just fed up and he's not going. He 243 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 2: doesn't want to support it, uh, so you know he uh, 244 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 2: and he's tired of being asked about the idea that. 245 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 3: This is a. 246 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 2: You know, a black issue took to address and you know, 247 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 2: what do you think about not having any black people 248 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 2: this time? You know, he's sick of that shit. So 249 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 2: he's just like, fucking, I ain't going. Jada sounds like 250 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 2: she won't be going, and a lot of people have 251 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,719 Speaker 2: said her comments are trying to say that nobody else 252 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 2: should be going. And I didn't get that from her comment, 253 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 2: but that seems to be the popular way to kind 254 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 2: of spend what she said, Uh, you know she said 255 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 2: the things I held on to, or when she said 256 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 2: maybe we need to pull back and take our resources 257 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 2: and basically like build up our own spaces or whatever, 258 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 2: which is a fine idea. I'm not knocking that. I 259 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 2: don't think it'll be the Oscars, but we already do 260 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 2: have some faces that are doing things, and the Smiths 261 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 2: do participate in those things. So you know, maybe you know, 262 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 2: maybe she's talking about pulling more black celebrity resources. 263 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 3: Who knows, but yeah, So anyway, what do you think 264 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 3: about though both of them? 265 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 2: M h m hmm. 266 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 10: It's well, I think with Uh and with Spike, he 267 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 10: brings up some good points as far as and it's sad, 268 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 10: but on any arena brown people particularly, well, we're talking 269 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 10: about black people us, our issues and our concerns and 270 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 10: our death and anything revolving around us always causes people 271 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 10: to ask black people about black people. We're not a 272 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 10: model with But it's funny how he brought the comput 273 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 10: It's funny how it's never asked in the other direction. 274 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 10: So I do agree with him about that. It's like 275 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 10: you're asking me, but I didn't get nominated. I'm not 276 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 10: up for anything. Ask these other people, how. 277 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 4: Do they feel? It's like white people. I never asked, 278 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 4: how do you feel about no black. 279 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 10: People being in the room tonight? They're not questioned. You know, 280 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 10: that's never bought up in an all white room. 281 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 2: And the board makes the decision, right, not not Spike Lee, 282 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 2: you know, right, So it's like, well, who's gonna interview, 283 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 2: who's gonna talk to the board. I mean people did 284 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 2: release statements later. I mean some people have spoken about 285 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 2: it since then, but yeah, well, so what do you 286 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 2: think about Dada's day? 287 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 10: Some Spike first, sorry, and also with Spike Keeper, I 288 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 10: agree with him saying that a lot of projects that 289 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 10: we have never get green lighted because they never see 290 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 10: the light of day. And that's because we're not in 291 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 10: the rooms. We're not making the decisions. We're not on 292 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 10: the boards, we're not in uh, the positions, we're not 293 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 10: on a lot of time, not on these voting committees. 294 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 4: We're not there. 295 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 10: So these decisions are made without minorities there made, they 296 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 10: are made without women. So these decisions are made without 297 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 10: without the groups that they affect. And then everybody shocked 298 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 10: and surprised when the surprise when these groups come up. Hey, y'all, 299 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 10: left us out, and everybody were like, well, okay, and 300 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 10: it's because we wouldn't on their motherfucking minds. Let's just 301 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 10: keep that real. We were not on their minds. And 302 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 10: it's sad that we. 303 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 4: Live in twenty sixteen and people continue to demand diversity 304 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 4: and everybody's always shocked in and surprised when these minority 305 00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 4: groups get angry when they're constantly left out. 306 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 3: Mm hmm, yeah, I agree with all that obviously. 307 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 2: I think uh Spike has a good point about the 308 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,919 Speaker 2: battle being twofold. I think a lot of people lose that, 309 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:19,120 Speaker 2: like there should be more opportunities as well as more 310 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 2: camaraderie because these white people that are in the room there, 311 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,360 Speaker 2: these are their peers. And it's not just black people 312 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 2: that got short tripped. It's called Oscar so white. Shout 313 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 2: out the rain and April, but it's it's Oscar so white, 314 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,159 Speaker 2: not Oscar is not black, or Oscar is not brown, 315 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 2: or Oscar's not it's just there's it's an overwhelming whiteness, 316 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 2: no diversity. Yeah, and we've already we're already well on 317 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:46,719 Speaker 2: record about how we feel about the about you know, 318 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 2: this idea that black people shouldn't want to get oscars. 319 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 2: That's that's just fucking stupid. Or that people that work 320 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 2: so hard to be recognized in the same field as 321 00:17:56,280 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 2: everybody else should be okay and satisfied getting less. That's 322 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 2: pretty self defeating to say the least of people who 323 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 2: think black people should not want to receive the same 324 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 2: respect and recognition as their work demands, right, that's just. 325 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 10: Dumb by their peers in the same field, because we 326 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:20,719 Speaker 10: all have to work together. And speaking on Jada, I 327 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,439 Speaker 10: think for me personally, I have more problems with the 328 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 10: response to what Jada said than what she said. My 329 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 10: problem is that I haven't played all the response. 330 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 2: We'll get to some of the response from what she said, 331 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 2: but I was just saying about what she said. So 332 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 2: because I do have one thing about what Jada said 333 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 2: that I do think it's just inescapable. 334 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 3: It's no way, there's just no way to talk around it. 335 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 2: But the Smiths have worked very hard, and they've been 336 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 2: very fortunate, and they've am asked a certain amount of pull, 337 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 2: a certain amount of money, a certain amount of status. 338 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:07,919 Speaker 2: It's like if Lebron James called for NBA lockout, Yes 339 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 2: he could be right, but people are gonna think he's 340 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,479 Speaker 2: the wrong messenger because he has the means to do it, 341 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 2: and many other NBA players don't know they don't So 342 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 2: it's like, while other people would be missing meals and 343 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 2: checks and rent, he would be doing just like, not 344 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,400 Speaker 2: just fine, but he'd be doing better off. He would 345 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 2: have the resources to in a poll to figure something 346 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 2: out in the meantime, where other people just would not 347 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 2: have all those options. Right doesn't mean she's wrong, doesn't 348 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 2: mean that the impetus is wrong, doesn't mean that she 349 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:47,199 Speaker 2: doesn't have a point. I personally don't necessarily agree with 350 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 2: her point, but I'm also not in that room, so 351 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 2: I can't say. 352 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 3: You know what I would do. 353 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 2: But you know, I personally don't think anybody should have 354 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 2: to joining the boycotting thing like that. And now she 355 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 2: didn't tell anybody to join. She didn't say if you go, 356 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 2: you something's wrong with you. She didn't say she didn't 357 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,199 Speaker 2: tell anybody else to watch. She just told you what 358 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 2: she's gonna do.

People are dying, 459 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 9: boys are being shot, So. 460 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 3: That's so okay. 461 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 2: Two things that are happening here, I have to stop 462 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 2: so that I want to make note while it's happening, 463 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 2: and then we'll go back. The first thing is the 464 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 2: assumption is Jada Pinkett is speaking on behalf of her. 465 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 3: Husband and not for herself. 466 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 2: Come on now, I find that to be extremely It's sex. 467 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 3: It's basically it's only we. 468 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 2: Only do that for women, We don't do that for men. 469 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 2: Right strip away her agency, Jada Pinkett Smith is has 470 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 2: never had an issue speaking out for herself also, and 471 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,360 Speaker 2: I think this is just the way because I saw 472 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 2: people running with us. And maybe part of it was 473 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 2: just because she said it, but people have a very 474 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 2: simplistic idea of what marriage is, and they really do 475 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 2: think you lose your individuality and you speak for each 476 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 2: other all the time, or that you run shit by it. 477 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:51,360 Speaker 2: Tata's video did not look sophisticated enough for me to think, yeah, 478 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 2: we'll put her up to this, you know what I mean? 479 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 4: Like that she sat down, turned the camera on. It 480 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 4: was like, this is what I got to say. 481 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, she tweeted about it. Do you think she ran 482 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 2: on tweets by him? Like even if what you're saying 483 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 2: may be connected to this other person, because y'all are married. 484 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 2: It doesn't mean you share the same brain. It doesn't 485 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,120 Speaker 2: mean that you guys agree on everything. It doesn't mean 486 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 2: that you disagree. Sometimes you say shit because you know 487 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,679 Speaker 2: the person you're with, You trust them, and you feel 488 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 2: like they have your back. So if you're passionate about something, 489 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 2: it's like we passionate about something. Now, I'm not saying 490 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,919 Speaker 2: that always works out that way, but I'm just providing 491 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 2: other alternatives to the idea that Jada Pinkinsmith of all 492 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 2: women has to go. Hey, will is it okay if 493 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 2: I talk about the Oscars this year? I just like 494 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 2: I said, I think it's very simple in a lot 495 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,640 Speaker 2: of people's minds, and they haven't really thought about why 496 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 2: it's so simple to them. But it's not realistic. Think 497 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,360 Speaker 2: about your own relationships.

Now, some couples may be like that, 848 00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:33,879 Speaker 2: I sincerely doubt the way that they carry themselves. You know, 849 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 2: when Jada Pinkinsmith goes the Black Girls Rock and when 850 00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 2: Will Smith gets on stage and that it just like 851 00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 2: you know, gushes his love out openly as a black 852 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:49,280 Speaker 2: man to his black wife from the stage at multiple 853 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,399 Speaker 2: black events, be a t Awards and all this shit. 854 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 2: It's very hard for me to believe that that's a 855 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 2: guy going did you better not say nothing?

Here's what Will said. 872 00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:44,959 Speaker 2: Because some people try to say, well, Will Smith said 873 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:46,200 Speaker 2: racism is rare. 874 00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:51,200 Speaker 3: And I said, I remember reading that and not being mad. 875 00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:56,280 Speaker 2: So I feel like some context is missing from people 876 00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 2: bringing this up. 877 00:46:57,680 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 3: One it still wouldn't have shit to do with what 878 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 3: Jada's said, and. 879 00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:07,319 Speaker 2: In two, if he thinks that, I feel like I 880 00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:09,439 Speaker 2: would have been more upset when I read that shit. 881 00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:12,360 Speaker 2: So I went and look it up. Because we have 882 00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:15,120 Speaker 2: the fucking Internet machines in our hands at all times, 883 00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:17,480 Speaker 2: there's no need to be running around saying stupid shit, 884 00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 2: taking out of context or ripped from a headline. When 885 00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 2: there's an entire fucking article. 886 00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 3: Belief beneath it. 887 00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:22,799 Speaker 4: Come on now. 888 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:26,520 Speaker 2: Will Smith says racism is actually rare, but prejudice is everywhere. 889 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,759 Speaker 2: Everybody is prejudice. Will Smith thinks there's a problem with 890 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 2: the discussion around race in Hollywood to dad confusion or 891 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:35,120 Speaker 2: at least a lack of precision about two of the issues. 892 00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:39,720 Speaker 2: Key turns Smith, who gets serious? Oscar Buzz? Who's getting serious? 893 00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:42,600 Speaker 2: Oscar Buzz for his role as doctor Bennett Oumalu from 894 00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:45,480 Speaker 2: the upcoming movie Concussion, was asked about this highly charged 895 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:48,759 Speaker 2: issue during the Hollywood Reporters Award Season Actor round Table. 896 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:50,800 Speaker 2: Smith explained that he and his wife Jada Pink and 897 00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 2: Smith had just been talking about the crucial difference between 898 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:57,719 Speaker 2: racism and prejudice. Everybody is prejudiced, he said. Everybody has 899 00:47:57,719 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 2: their life experiences that make them prefer one thing over another. 900 00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:03,480 Speaker 2: It makes them prefer blonde hair over brunette. 901 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:04,400 Speaker 3: If you see. 902 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:06,200 Speaker 2: Somebody with dark skin walking down the street, you have 903 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:08,719 Speaker 2: a different reaction than you have with someone who is 904 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:12,600 Speaker 2: five foot one and white. The word racism, he said, 905 00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 2: implies something worse, the feeling that your race is generally 906 00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:18,080 Speaker 2: is superior, and I have to say, I live with 907 00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:20,919 Speaker 2: constant prejudice, but racism is actually rare. 908 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 3: Someone who thinks their race is superior. 909 00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:25,960 Speaker 2: Smith said that on the rare occasion that he's encountered 910 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:29,719 Speaker 2: someone in Hollywood who's actually racist, he immediately decided not 911 00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:30,720 Speaker 2: to work with them. 912 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:32,520 Speaker 3: And he said, it does happen. 913 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 2: Now, it's a semantic argument at this point, because he 914 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,800 Speaker 2: ain't shine away from the fact that there's implicit bias 915 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:48,720 Speaker 2: in Hollywood via prejudice and open and out just racism 916 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:53,200 Speaker 2: in Hollywood. He hasn't run into the opening out racism 917 00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:55,799 Speaker 2: very often, which is easy to believe because he is 918 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:59,040 Speaker 2: Will Smith, right. You know, his experience may be different 919 00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:02,799 Speaker 2: than say, don cheat or something. I'm sure people talk 920 00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:07,319 Speaker 2: to him and about him differently, and his experience is 921 00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:10,680 Speaker 2: different than a lot of black people's experience. Which still 922 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:14,080 Speaker 2: doesn't mean he's sleep though, because he's out here like, yeah, 923 00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 2: when that shit happens, I don't work with people, and 924 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,400 Speaker 2: it does happen. I think what happens a lot of 925 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:22,840 Speaker 2: the time is that people don't read these articles and 926 00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:27,399 Speaker 2: they immediately go he think racism ain't real. He's like, no, no, 927 00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:29,960 Speaker 2: I've experienced it right up in my motherfucking face, and 928 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,320 Speaker 2: I said, let me walk the fuck out. The sad 929 00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:34,480 Speaker 2: part is will have the agency to be able to 930 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:36,600 Speaker 2: do that. A lot of people getting that racism in 931 00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 2: they face and they still. 932 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 3: Need that check. 933 00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:40,400 Speaker 4: Yes they do them bills don't stop. 934 00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:42,719 Speaker 2: A moment later, the interviewer asked if actors could do 935 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 2: anything to fight this kind of racism. The other African 936 00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:47,879 Speaker 2: American on the panel, Saniel Jackson, asked with. 937 00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 3: A simple no. 938 00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:55,480 Speaker 2: Shout out the sound that's the really shit album. He 939 00:49:55,680 --> 00:50:01,160 Speaker 2: was like, Nah, no, racist, it ain't shit you could do. 940 00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:05,200 Speaker 2: But Smith was more optimistic about that chances. As actors, 941 00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 2: we have the ultimate power. Historically, story combined with imagery 942 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:12,160 Speaker 2: moves humanity for what we do. Not that it's a responsibility, 943 00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:14,920 Speaker 2: but it's the ultimate form for changing people's hearts and minds. 944 00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:16,799 Speaker 3: A lot of artists believe that shit. 945 00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 2: You know that, Hey, the art I make is gonna 946 00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:21,759 Speaker 2: push the boundaries for it to make people learn, you 947 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:22,759 Speaker 2: know good. 948 00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:26,200 Speaker 3: A lot of people did, Comedians, musicians, a lot of people. 949 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 2: The latest statements archasisted whatever other smith Is made in 950 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:32,600 Speaker 2: the past. In February, he said that fixing America's race 951 00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:35,319 Speaker 2: problem will require change that will be so brutal and 952 00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:36,239 Speaker 2: so painful. 953 00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:40,359 Speaker 3: This sound like a dude that thinks racismin a thing. 954 00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:42,759 Speaker 2: It sound like a nigga that's not woke. 955 00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:43,640 Speaker 9: What are we doing? 956 00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:49,200 Speaker 2: Why are we Why are people putting this quote out. 957 00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:52,200 Speaker 3: Here like he's excusing racism? 958 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:53,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, they're not reading the article. 959 00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 3: Where's the aptitude?

At 965 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:11,160 Speaker 2: that point, Smith's acting the singer have been generating tons 966 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:13,879 Speaker 2: of money for decades, which may have inoculated him from 967 00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:17,320 Speaker 2: even and even blinded him too, the worst behaviors in 968 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:20,720 Speaker 2: Hollywood going back even further. For example, he called nineteen 969 00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 2: ninet nine a great time to be black in Hollywood. 970 00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:26,920 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, nineteen nine nine.

People keep being like, well, 974 00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:37,520 Speaker 2: he got enough money, I mean, because who knows he 975 00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:40,000 Speaker 2: might go to the Oscars. We don't know that he's 976 00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:41,400 Speaker 2: not going to the Oscars. 977 00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:42,440 Speaker 4: Right, she might be at home. 978 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:45,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, she might not go, and he might who knows. 979 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:51,680 Speaker 2: But it's very funny though, because when you're young, this 980 00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 2: is how they do this a lot to black quarterbacks. 981 00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:55,440 Speaker 3: Your first year in. 982 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:57,239 Speaker 2: The league, when having a good year, taking the league 983 00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:59,480 Speaker 2: by storm. Defenses hadn't got used to you haven't gone 984 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 2: through at verse, and they ask you this question always 985 00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:04,560 Speaker 2: when you first starting out, and they're like, so, you 986 00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,799 Speaker 2: know it's a black quarterback, how does that affect you, know, 987 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:11,319 Speaker 2: your play on the field and all your perception.

It's just hard for 1061 00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:41,560 Speaker 2: me to believe. I'm not saying it's impossible. It's just 1062 00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:45,640 Speaker 2: real fucking hard for me to believe that you because 1063 00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:47,440 Speaker 2: Jada woke as fuck. Matter of fact, let's get to 1064 00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:50,400 Speaker 2: that cause, like I said, those are Will's comments, not 1065 00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:52,840 Speaker 2: that I have nothing no problem with those comments. And 1066 00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:54,880 Speaker 2: I would think the majority of our audience has no 1067 00:55:54,880 --> 00:56:00,120 Speaker 2: problem with those comments, but those still aren't Jada's comments. 1068 00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:01,200 Speaker 3: But for. 1069 00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:07,560 Speaker 2: Janet Hewart, you know, to say that, you know, Will 1070 00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:10,839 Speaker 2: doesn't care about raceship, okay, all right, cool to say, 1071 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:13,759 Speaker 2: or at least to imply that he doesn't and he 1072 00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:15,880 Speaker 2: didn't because he didn't speak up for her contract. 1073 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:21,000 Speaker 3: He doesn't care about black people and shit, Okay, cool. 1074 00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:24,560 Speaker 2: I think it's Smith donated one hundred and fifty thousand 1075 00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:28,920 Speaker 2: dollars to the Justice or Else March. You may recall 1076 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:31,080 Speaker 2: that because it happened last fucking year. 1077 00:56:32,960 --> 00:56:39,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, the you know, the Daily Show, the Nightly Show 1078 00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:40,440 Speaker 3: sent people out there. 1079 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:44,279 Speaker 2: Roy Roald Jina had a really good savement on there 1080 00:56:44,320 --> 00:56:49,759 Speaker 2: about what the or Else is. Minister Lewis Ferrikhn was 1081 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:52,560 Speaker 2: in charge of that. So if they were really scared 1082 00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:56,960 Speaker 2: of backlash, I would say they probably wouldn't want to 1083 00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:58,040 Speaker 2: be associated with. 1084 00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:02,480 Speaker 3: The Lewis a fhra con. 1085 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:07,120 Speaker 2: You know, who has been very outspoken about some issues 1086 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:09,399 Speaker 2: of the Jewish persuasion, if you know what I'm saying. 1087 00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 2: But they gave money because it was supposed to be 1088 00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:15,560 Speaker 2: like the New Millionaire in March, where you know, it 1089 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:18,680 Speaker 2: wasn't gonna be any of that.

But to realize they weren't going to 1132 00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:54,000 Speaker 2: show the category on television was a slap in the 1133 00:59:54,040 --> 00:59:57,520 Speaker 2: face right at the time, less than three decades ago. 1134 00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:01,360 Speaker 2: While the Awards committee didn't want to tell category nomination 1135 01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:05,360 Speaker 2: for raps first Grammy recipients, they did ask. 1136 01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:08,120 Speaker 3: Them to perform.

That slap in the face led the 1141 01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:19,480 Speaker 2: duo to boycott. We didn't know what was going what 1142 01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:21,600 Speaker 2: it was going to do for our career. But at 1143 01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:23,720 Speaker 2: that point, in that stage of hip hop, you had 1144 01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:25,400 Speaker 2: people saying that hip hop is only going to be 1145 01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,040 Speaker 2: around a certain amount of time. The efforts to thwart 1146 01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:29,920 Speaker 2: and they Sayers led the other big names of hip 1147 01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:33,600 Speaker 2: hop following suit.

Jada also talked about race versus gender 1239 01:04:56,440 --> 01:05:00,000 Speaker 2: when it comes to Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton is runn 1240 01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:02,040 Speaker 2: for president. When Hillary made her announcement, I was more 1241 01:05:02,040 --> 01:05:04,880 Speaker 2: confused and anxious than excited. Her announcement conjured many old 1242 01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:07,560 Speaker 2: hurts and scars. In the past, I've been criticizing for 1243 01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:10,560 Speaker 2: suggesting that black women extend our media platforms the white 1244 01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:13,160 Speaker 2: women in the way In which white women are making 1245 01:05:13,200 --> 01:05:16,280 Speaker 2: strives to extend their media platforms media platforms to us. 1246 01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:19,320 Speaker 2: But Hillary's announcement arounded me that the relationship between black 1247 01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:23,760 Speaker 2: and white women on the political platform has been deeply complicated, disappointed, 1248 01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:26,680 Speaker 2: and painful. The only question I have been asking myself 1249 01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:28,840 Speaker 2: is if I'm supposed to vote for Hillary because she 1250 01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:30,920 Speaker 2: is a woman, will she take us to the mountain 1251 01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:32,840 Speaker 2: top with her? Or will women of color once again 1252 01:05:32,880 --> 01:05:35,760 Speaker 2: be left out and left behind? For example, during the 1253 01:05:35,800 --> 01:05:39,760 Speaker 2: women's suffrage movement, black women were specifically excluded because northern 1254 01:05:39,800 --> 01:05:42,920 Speaker 2: white women feared of losing support of southern white women 1255 01:05:42,960 --> 01:05:45,919 Speaker 2: and if black women weren't crewed. What made it even 1256 01:05:45,960 --> 01:05:48,440 Speaker 2: more offensive is that the two women given credit for 1257 01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:52,120 Speaker 2: pioneering the women's movement were at first abolitionists. Those were 1258 01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:55,040 Speaker 2: complicated times, but as time has gone on, it scenes 1259 01:05:55,280 --> 01:05:58,320 Speaker 2: as if that sentiment of separatism did not let up 1260 01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:00,800 Speaker 2: and permeate it through the femis this movement as a 1261 01:06:00,840 --> 01:06:02,880 Speaker 2: place to facilitate and empower white women. 1262 01:06:02,960 --> 01:06:03,240 Speaker 3: Only. 1263 01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:07,160 Speaker 2: I personally suffer the racism and classism of the feminist movement, 1264 01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:10,240 Speaker 2: and now have had to watch my daughter battle even agism, 1265 01:06:10,240 --> 01:06:12,960 Speaker 2: and she journeys to participate in the feminist movement, but 1266 01:06:13,040 --> 01:06:15,400 Speaker 2: she continues to fight the good fight, referring to herself 1267 01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:18,080 Speaker 2: as a feminist while her mother refers to herself as a. 1268 01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:20,520 Speaker 3: Womanist who supports feminism and feminists. 1269 01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:24,320 Speaker 2: You can imagine that Willow and I've had some spirited 1270 01:06:24,360 --> 01:06:27,720 Speaker 2: conversations about this topic that's uneasy for even a mother 1271 01:06:27,800 --> 01:06:30,840 Speaker 2: and daughter to talk about at times, which simply illuminates 1272 01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:33,560 Speaker 2: how volatile a subject it could be for a nation. 1273 01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:34,280 Speaker 3: Of women to explore. 1274 01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:38,240 Speaker 2: But we must. How will we reconcile the past to 1275 01:06:38,440 --> 01:06:41,760 Speaker 2: move into the future. Can Hillary, whether she becomes president 1276 01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:44,080 Speaker 2: or not, heal the broken political ties of the women 1277 01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:46,920 Speaker 2: of this nation. I know it takes far more than 1278 01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:49,480 Speaker 2: the idea of being the first female president of the 1279 01:06:49,560 --> 01:06:51,600 Speaker 2: United States to run this country, but as a woman, 1280 01:06:51,840 --> 01:06:54,680 Speaker 2: it sure is an exciting idea. Women of color and 1281 01:06:54,720 --> 01:06:58,520 Speaker 2: white women have been taken on the majority of their 1282 01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:03,120 Speaker 2: fights on the political platform on separate lines. Can Hillary 1283 01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:05,920 Speaker 2: Clinton change that legacy through her journey to become president? 1284 01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:07,640 Speaker 3: Because if she can, she. 1285 01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:09,640 Speaker 2: Would not only have my vote, but she would have 1286 01:07:09,760 --> 01:07:12,320 Speaker 2: my heart to all my women friends, or all colors 1287 01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:16,080 Speaker 2: and creeds. This is a great opportunity for healing and reconciliation, 1288 01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:18,840 Speaker 2: less woman up in the spirit of compassion, the game, 1289 01:07:18,920 --> 01:07:21,600 Speaker 2: more understanding of one another and the issues we faced. 1290 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:23,360 Speaker 3: Let's get this conversation started. 1291 01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:23,720 Speaker 2: Jay. 1292 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:27,440 Speaker 4: Does it sound like she don't wow? 1293 01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:31,160 Speaker 2: Do it sound like she like she don't care? Is 1294 01:07:31,160 --> 01:07:32,960 Speaker 2: it just me? Or does it sound like you think 1295 01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:34,120 Speaker 2: she ran it by Will first? 1296 01:07:34,120 --> 01:07:34,280 Speaker 1: Here? 1297 01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:36,400 Speaker 2: And you think she had to go, Hey, Will, I'm 1298 01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:38,680 Speaker 2: gonna write some shit on Facebook. What you want to 1299 01:07:38,720 --> 01:07:39,640 Speaker 2: proof read this for me? 1300 01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:42,160 Speaker 3: Okay? 1301 01:07:43,160 --> 01:07:47,240 Speaker 2: And yet she did get chastised for and honestly she 1302 01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:48,680 Speaker 2: was just asking the question. 1303 01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:50,600 Speaker 3: But she she photos. 1304 01:07:50,880 --> 01:07:53,640 Speaker 2: She took a picture of photoshot with Charlie's on the 1305 01:07:53,680 --> 01:08:01,400 Speaker 2: covered essence and said basically like, would we do this? 1306 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:03,320 Speaker 2: We put her on the cover and let her talk 1307 01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:06,400 Speaker 2: about the experience of loving and raising a black son 1308 01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:12,080 Speaker 2: because she's adopted a black child.

The Academy has 1479 01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:33,599 Speaker 2: a problem, said the British actor. Uh, it's a problem 1480 01:16:33,640 --> 01:16:38,120 Speaker 2: that needs to be solved. He revealed that Boone Isaacs, 1481 01:16:38,160 --> 01:16:38,599 Speaker 2: who's the. 1482 01:16:40,040 --> 01:16:45,160 Speaker 3: What do you call it, the like head of the 1483 01:16:45,160 --> 01:16:48,880 Speaker 3: Oscars or whatever, head of the Academy. A year ago, 1484 01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:49,880 Speaker 3: she's a black woman. 1485 01:16:50,080 --> 01:16:51,680 Speaker 2: A year ago, I did a film called Selma, and 1486 01:16:51,800 --> 01:16:56,400 Speaker 2: after the Academy Awards, Cheryl Cheryl Booneas invited me to 1487 01:16:56,520 --> 01:16:59,120 Speaker 2: her office to talk about what went wrong. We had 1488 01:16:59,160 --> 01:17:02,080 Speaker 2: a deeper, meaningful conversation for twenty opportunities to celebrate actors 1489 01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:03,920 Speaker 2: of color actress as the colors that we missed last 1490 01:17:04,000 --> 01:17:04,639 Speaker 2: year is one thing. 1491 01:17:04,920 --> 01:17:07,120 Speaker 3: For that to happen again this year is unforgivable. 1492 01:17:08,479 --> 01:17:11,160 Speaker 2: While urging the audience to pray for Boone Isaacs, he continued, 1493 01:17:11,200 --> 01:17:13,799 Speaker 2: the reason why the Oscars are so important is because 1494 01:17:13,840 --> 01:17:16,040 Speaker 2: it is the zenith, It is the epitome. It is 1495 01:17:16,080 --> 01:17:18,760 Speaker 2: the height of celebration of artistic endeavor. 1496 01:17:18,479 --> 01:17:19,840 Speaker 3: Within the filmmaking community. 1497 01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:23,040 Speaker 2: We grow up aspiring, dreaming, longing to be accepted into 1498 01:17:23,080 --> 01:17:27,560 Speaker 2: the August establishment because it is the height of excellence. 1499 01:17:27,640 --> 01:17:29,960 Speaker 2: I would like to walk away and say it doesn't matter, 1500 01:17:30,040 --> 01:17:33,360 Speaker 2: but it does, because that acknowledgment changes the trajectory of 1501 01:17:33,400 --> 01:17:35,479 Speaker 2: your life, Your career and the culture of the world 1502 01:17:35,479 --> 01:17:38,080 Speaker 2: we live in. Right, He said that the current Academy, 1503 01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:41,679 Speaker 2: the institution doesn't reflect this president, and it doesn't reflect 1504 01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:44,479 Speaker 2: this room. I'm an Academy member and it doesn't reflect me. 1505 01:17:44,680 --> 01:17:45,680 Speaker 2: It doesn't reflect this. 1506 01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:49,719 Speaker 3: Nation when it probably does O Yo Loo. 1507 01:17:50,560 --> 01:17:55,360 Speaker 2: Note that two of the top films at the box 1508 01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:57,360 Speaker 2: office this weekend are led by black performers. 1509 01:17:57,560 --> 01:18:01,080 Speaker 3: We have a situation whereby currently the biggest movie in 1510 01:18:01,160 --> 01:18:02,600 Speaker 3: the world and. 1511 01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:04,960 Speaker 2: Of all times, Star Wars A Force Awakens, led by 1512 01:18:04,960 --> 01:18:07,320 Speaker 2: a black man. The film was knocked off the top 1513 01:18:07,360 --> 01:18:09,519 Speaker 2: spot this weekend by film led by two black men. 1514 01:18:09,600 --> 01:18:11,480 Speaker 3: Right along too, the biggest. 1515 01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:13,799 Speaker 2: TV show on the planet is led by black people, Empire. 1516 01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:16,960 Speaker 2: Pointing to the speed of change in the nineteen sixty 1517 01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:18,960 Speaker 2: he said there was no reason the Academy should take 1518 01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:21,960 Speaker 2: so long. The effect changed now, without specifying what change 1519 01:18:21,960 --> 01:18:22,559 Speaker 2: that should be. 1520 01:18:23,280 --> 01:18:24,800 Speaker 3: There was a photograph up here earlier. 1521 01:18:24,840 --> 01:18:26,960 Speaker 2: It's a photograph of Lyndon Johnson giving a pen that 1522 01:18:27,080 --> 01:18:29,240 Speaker 2: was used to sign the Voting Rights Act to doctor King. 1523 01:18:29,800 --> 01:18:32,120 Speaker 2: The year before that photo was taking the Civil Rights 1524 01:18:32,120 --> 01:18:34,920 Speaker 2: Act was passed. It was started as an idea by 1525 01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:38,519 Speaker 2: JFK LBJ used the sentiment at the loss of at 1526 01:18:38,600 --> 01:18:41,080 Speaker 2: the loss of JFK's life, to bring about the Civil 1527 01:18:41,160 --> 01:18:44,320 Speaker 2: Rights Act being passed. When Doctor King said he needed 1528 01:18:44,320 --> 01:18:47,080 Speaker 2: the Voting Rights Active be passed, LBJ said it's too soon. 1529 01:18:47,520 --> 01:18:50,000 Speaker 2: It can't be done. People were losing their lives, people 1530 01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:53,280 Speaker 2: weren't allowed to vote. Doctor King said, we cannot wait. 1531 01:18:53,840 --> 01:18:57,320 Speaker 2: That was done. What was done was done not in years, 1532 01:18:57,360 --> 01:19:00,920 Speaker 2: but months. The march from Selma to Montgomery. Those marches 1533 01:19:00,960 --> 01:19:03,960 Speaker 2: began in January of nineteen sixty five, and by March 1534 01:19:04,000 --> 01:19:07,680 Speaker 2: of nineteen sixty five, the world was aware what was 1535 01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:09,640 Speaker 2: going on in Selma. By August of that year, the 1536 01:19:09,720 --> 01:19:12,240 Speaker 2: Voting Rights Act was passed. He used that example. The 1537 01:19:12,280 --> 01:19:15,240 Speaker 2: LAMB based the Academy for not moving quicker. The Academy 1538 01:19:15,280 --> 01:19:19,000 Speaker 2: is an institution in which they all say radically, radical 1539 01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:22,040 Speaker 2: and timely. Change cannot happen quickly. It better happened quickly. 1540 01:19:22,080 --> 01:19:24,439 Speaker 2: The law this country can change in a matter of months. 1541 01:19:24,720 --> 01:19:28,080 Speaker 2: It better come on. The OSCARS is on February twenty eighth. 1542 01:19:28,400 --> 01:19:31,320 Speaker 2: Cheryl needs us to pray that by that date change 1543 01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:33,439 Speaker 2: is going to come. We need to pray for Cheryl. 1544 01:19:33,479 --> 01:19:36,240 Speaker 2: We need to support Cheryl, We need to love Cheryl. 1545 01:19:36,320 --> 01:19:38,720 Speaker 2: We cannot afford to get better, we cannot afford to 1546 01:19:38,720 --> 01:19:39,360 Speaker 2: get negative. 1547 01:19:39,640 --> 01:19:44,639 Speaker 3: But we must make our voice heard. Yeah, and I will. 1548 01:19:44,840 --> 01:19:48,559 Speaker 2: That last statement I think is most important here ice Cube. 1549 01:19:50,439 --> 01:19:53,439 Speaker 2: He was giving an interview and last week someone asked 1550 01:19:53,479 --> 01:19:56,160 Speaker 2: him about Hey, straight out of Compton didn't get any 1551 01:19:56,240 --> 01:20:02,400 Speaker 2: awards except for writers, which is all white people. By 1552 01:20:02,439 --> 01:20:04,320 Speaker 2: the way, it's weird that the writers are all white. 1553 01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:08,240 Speaker 2: It seemed like, uh, I don't know why why Q 1554 01:20:08,320 --> 01:20:09,960 Speaker 2: ain't get a writing credit on that ain't in his 1555 01:20:10,080 --> 01:20:13,600 Speaker 2: life anyway, Like I'm surprised. 1556 01:20:13,280 --> 01:20:16,160 Speaker 3: He didn't write himself in. I don't know. Uh, but. 1557 01:20:17,760 --> 01:20:23,919 Speaker 2: He uh talked about not playing the Hollywood game because 1558 01:20:24,160 --> 01:20:25,880 Speaker 2: at last week people were pulling out this clip of 1559 01:20:25,920 --> 01:20:28,640 Speaker 2: him being like, oh see he's okay with that.

But yeah, 1593 01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:13,000 Speaker 2: when you steal on that ship, I know he was mad. 1594 01:22:13,200 --> 01:22:16,760 Speaker 2: I know he was mad. Everybody's mad. You can't be 1595 01:22:16,840 --> 01:22:21,479 Speaker 2: okay with that. Uh. Yeah, the cheruboone. ISAAC did release 1596 01:22:21,520 --> 01:22:24,000 Speaker 2: a statement, but it's the same as a statement. 1597 01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:27,880 Speaker 3: From last year. Yeah, we're gonna diversify and we're gonna 1598 01:22:27,880 --> 01:22:29,360 Speaker 3: take dramatic steps. 1599 01:22:30,560 --> 01:22:30,960 Speaker 4: Changes. 1600 01:22:31,240 --> 01:22:34,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. So you know the real problem with the oscars 1601 01:22:34,400 --> 01:22:38,360 Speaker 2: is that the six thousand people that already have votes, 1602 01:22:39,200 --> 01:22:43,360 Speaker 2: their thinking needs to change, right, And that's that's the 1603 01:22:43,400 --> 01:22:45,960 Speaker 2: real hurdle. You're just never gonna be able to You'd 1604 01:22:45,960 --> 01:22:49,240 Speaker 2: have to add twelve thousand more people to fucking offset 1605 01:22:49,320 --> 01:22:55,160 Speaker 2: the racist, uh implicit bias and uh prejudice that's already 1606 01:22:55,200 --> 01:22:57,720 Speaker 2: within there and the nepotism and shit. You just you 1607 01:22:57,720 --> 01:22:59,960 Speaker 2: would have to put ten twelve thousand people to offset 1608 01:23:00,120 --> 01:23:01,800 Speaker 2: six thousand that are already there. 1609 01:23:01,800 --> 01:23:02,840 Speaker 3: And that's not gonna happen. 1610 01:23:02,920 --> 01:23:07,080 Speaker 2: So something has to happen with the members of the Academy. 1611 01:23:08,000 --> 01:23:10,480 Speaker 2: And let's be honest, A lot of those are established 1612 01:23:11,240 --> 01:23:15,280 Speaker 2: people who are very opinionated, very. 1613 01:23:17,800 --> 01:23:18,400 Speaker 4: Very uh. 1614 01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:24,200 Speaker 2: Implanted in Hollywood. So I don't expect it to change 1615 01:23:24,680 --> 01:23:28,320 Speaker 2: anytime soon. But that doesn't mean people need to stop 1616 01:23:28,360 --> 01:23:30,160 Speaker 2: talking about it, and it doesn't mean that people should 1617 01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:32,840 Speaker 2: stop pushing for it, and it doesn't mean that you 1618 01:23:32,960 --> 01:23:36,559 Speaker 2: can't change their thinking by putting this. 1619 01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:38,640 Speaker 3: Pressure on them. I think you can. You won't get 1620 01:23:38,680 --> 01:23:41,479 Speaker 3: them all, but there's really no point in not. 1621 01:23:41,400 --> 01:23:45,760 Speaker 4: Trying, right do you have to demand change for change 1622 01:23:45,800 --> 01:23:46,160 Speaker 4: to happen. 1623 01:23:46,320 --> 01:23:52,080 Speaker 2: Speaking of one of those people, George Clooney, he spoke, 1624 01:23:52,400 --> 01:23:55,200 Speaker 2: he spoke up about this. He said, if you think 1625 01:23:55,240 --> 01:23:57,800 Speaker 2: back ten years ago, the Academy was doing a better job, 1626 01:23:58,600 --> 01:24:01,640 Speaker 2: Think about how many more African Americans were nominated in 1627 01:24:01,640 --> 01:24:04,040 Speaker 2: two thousand and five. Morgan Freeman and Jamie Fox both 1628 01:24:04,080 --> 01:24:08,120 Speaker 2: one acting oscars A, Catalina Sandino Marino don Chito, and 1629 01:24:08,160 --> 01:24:13,439 Speaker 2: Sophie Cornino Corneto, We're all among nominees. Echoing the popular 1630 01:24:13,439 --> 01:24:15,400 Speaker 2: sentiment that the lack of diversity at the Oscars is 1631 01:24:15,439 --> 01:24:19,160 Speaker 2: reflective of a larger symptomatic, a systemic problem, Clooney said, 1632 01:24:19,840 --> 01:24:22,680 Speaker 2: I would also make the argument, I don't think it's 1633 01:24:22,720 --> 01:24:25,800 Speaker 2: a problem of who you're picking as much as it 1634 01:24:25,880 --> 01:24:29,679 Speaker 2: is how many options are available to minorities in film, 1635 01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:31,839 Speaker 2: particularly in quality films. 1636 01:24:33,080 --> 01:24:35,280 Speaker 3: As he said before he signed up for another co inflict, 1637 01:24:36,080 --> 01:24:39,600 Speaker 3: Oh come on, man, you gotta get some brothers on 1638 01:24:39,640 --> 01:24:43,160 Speaker 3: that wall. Leaning into this connection that Hollywood's golden era 1639 01:24:43,479 --> 01:24:47,080 Speaker 3: when it's Aunt Rosemary Cloney enjoyed on screen success, Coloney 1640 01:24:47,080 --> 01:24:49,320 Speaker 3: also champion women, saying I think we have a lot 1641 01:24:49,320 --> 01:24:50,800 Speaker 3: of points we need to come to terms with or 1642 01:24:50,800 --> 01:24:52,920 Speaker 3: find it amazing that we're industry that in the nineteen 1643 01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:55,280 Speaker 3: thirties most of our leads were women, and now a 1644 01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:57,760 Speaker 3: woman over forty has a very difficult time being a 1645 01:24:58,160 --> 01:25:00,599 Speaker 3: lead in a movie. We're seeing some movement. 1646 01:25:00,880 --> 01:25:03,679 Speaker 2: Jennifer Lawrence or Patricia Arca have made loud pronouncement about 1647 01:25:03,680 --> 01:25:06,439 Speaker 2: wage disparity. Have put a stamp on the idea that 1648 01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:08,960 Speaker 2: we got to pay attention, but we should have been 1649 01:25:08,960 --> 01:25:11,440 Speaker 2: paying attention long before this. I think that African Americans 1650 01:25:11,439 --> 01:25:13,759 Speaker 2: have a real fair point that the industry isn't represented 1651 01:25:13,800 --> 01:25:14,559 Speaker 2: them well enough. 1652 01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:16,280 Speaker 3: I think that's absolutely true. 1653 01:25:17,840 --> 01:25:19,960 Speaker 2: This isn't the first time that Clooney had used position 1654 01:25:20,040 --> 01:25:22,839 Speaker 2: to power Hollywood to call out the industry. In two fourteen, 1655 01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:25,360 Speaker 2: he condemned his colleagues for filling the sign of petition 1656 01:25:25,400 --> 01:25:27,920 Speaker 2: to support for Sony he circulated just out of the 1657 01:25:27,920 --> 01:25:31,040 Speaker 2: twenty fourteen cyber attacks, and just last year suggested. 1658 01:25:30,720 --> 01:25:32,759 Speaker 3: Roles for men be rewritten for women. 1659 01:25:33,400 --> 01:25:35,880 Speaker 2: Given his prominence in Hollywood, as possible to clooney sharp 1660 01:25:35,920 --> 01:25:38,920 Speaker 2: statement to Variety, advocating for change will have an impact. 1661 01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:40,800 Speaker 2: He concludes by calling out some of the great work 1662 01:25:40,840 --> 01:25:44,639 Speaker 2: from non white Hollywood players he thinks merited recognition. Let's 1663 01:25:44,680 --> 01:25:46,639 Speaker 2: look back at some of the nominees. I think around 1664 01:25:46,840 --> 01:25:49,240 Speaker 2: two thousand and four, certainly there were black nominees like 1665 01:25:49,280 --> 01:25:51,519 Speaker 2: Don chie O, Morgan Freeman, and all of a sudden 1666 01:25:51,560 --> 01:25:53,559 Speaker 2: you feel like we're moving in the wrong direction. There 1667 01:25:53,560 --> 01:25:56,360 Speaker 2: were nominees left out the table. There were four films 1668 01:25:56,360 --> 01:25:59,640 Speaker 2: this year. Creed could have gotten nominations, Concussion could have 1669 01:25:59,680 --> 01:26:02,680 Speaker 2: gotten Will Smith the nomination. Idris Elba could have been 1670 01:26:02,680 --> 01:26:04,640 Speaker 2: nominated for Beasts of No Nation and Straight Out of 1671 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:07,439 Speaker 2: Content could have been nominated. And certainly last year with 1672 01:26:07,479 --> 01:26:10,960 Speaker 2: Selmo director Evert du Verne, I think that it's just 1673 01:26:11,240 --> 01:26:12,720 Speaker 2: ridiculous not to nominate her. 1674 01:26:12,920 --> 01:26:15,599 Speaker 3: But honestly, that should be more opportunity than that. 1675 01:26:16,040 --> 01:26:18,000 Speaker 2: That should be twenty and thirty or forty films of 1676 01:26:18,040 --> 01:26:20,800 Speaker 2: the quality that people would consider for the Oscars. By 1677 01:26:20,840 --> 01:26:24,040 Speaker 2: the way, we're talking about African Americans. For Hispanics, it's 1678 01:26:24,080 --> 01:26:25,920 Speaker 2: even worse. We need to get better at this. 1679 01:26:26,280 --> 01:26:29,880 Speaker 3: We used to be better at it. George Clooney woke, 1680 01:26:29,960 --> 01:26:31,920 Speaker 3: Hall of Fame.

A former player has harsh advice 1815 01:33:29,560 --> 01:33:33,800 Speaker 2: for women wanting answers okay. Elijah Connor is like many 1816 01:33:33,840 --> 01:33:37,960 Speaker 2: men who enjoy the company of numerous beautiful women, often 1817 01:33:38,000 --> 01:33:41,920 Speaker 2: without consequences. But unlike many Connors from Landering Ways, landing 1818 01:33:41,960 --> 01:33:45,400 Speaker 2: him a gig on Oxygen's reality show Players, and more importantly, 1819 01:33:45,400 --> 01:33:48,280 Speaker 2: Connor is willing to be honest. He believes that most 1820 01:33:48,280 --> 01:33:50,720 Speaker 2: women become detectives to find out who their man is 1821 01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:53,080 Speaker 2: sleeping with, because they want to see what the other 1822 01:33:53,120 --> 01:33:56,720 Speaker 2: woman looks like. More than anything. It's a mind thing 1823 01:33:56,800 --> 01:33:59,160 Speaker 2: with women. They just want to know what the other 1824 01:33:59,200 --> 01:34:01,599 Speaker 2: woman looks like. They want to know who and what 1825 01:34:01,640 --> 01:34:04,679 Speaker 2: their competition is. It doesn't mean they are going anywhere, 1826 01:34:04,800 --> 01:34:09,479 Speaker 2: Kinda explains Ouch. Admittedly, Connor does have a point. After 1827 01:34:09,479 --> 01:34:12,040 Speaker 2: hearing his insight on women rolling out, ask him what 1828 01:34:12,120 --> 01:34:12,759 Speaker 2: advice will. 1829 01:34:12,640 --> 01:34:13,040 Speaker 4: You would give? 1830 01:34:13,040 --> 01:34:15,120 Speaker 2: Women want to know why that man is cheating on them. 1831 01:34:16,120 --> 01:34:19,320 Speaker 2: Connor has some harsh but fair words of wisdom. Okay, 1832 01:34:19,560 --> 01:34:22,160 Speaker 2: I'm successful, i have a little money, I'm not a 1833 01:34:22,160 --> 01:34:25,639 Speaker 2: bad looking guy. It's not realistic for you to assume 1834 01:34:25,720 --> 01:34:28,679 Speaker 2: that you're the only one I'm talking to. Women shouldn't 1835 01:34:28,680 --> 01:34:31,080 Speaker 2: assume that there aren't other women in a man's life 1836 01:34:31,080 --> 01:34:32,960 Speaker 2: at the time he meets you. Chances are if you 1837 01:34:32,960 --> 01:34:34,960 Speaker 2: think he's a good catch, someone else does too. 1838 01:34:35,560 --> 01:34:37,600 Speaker 3: Usually how you meet him is the way he is 1839 01:34:37,640 --> 01:34:38,240 Speaker 3: going to stay. 1840 01:34:38,360 --> 01:34:39,760 Speaker 2: If you meet a guy at a club with a 1841 01:34:39,800 --> 01:34:41,880 Speaker 2: lot of women around, don't be surprised if that's his 1842 01:34:41,960 --> 01:34:44,559 Speaker 2: normal routine. Don't expect your man to fall in love 1843 01:34:44,600 --> 01:34:47,200 Speaker 2: with you and change his behavior. Be honest with yourself 1844 01:34:47,200 --> 01:34:50,360 Speaker 2: about your intentions or long term goals. Do you want 1845 01:34:50,400 --> 01:34:52,960 Speaker 2: to just kick it, do you want just sex and trinkets, 1846 01:34:53,000 --> 01:34:55,400 Speaker 2: or do you want marriage? Connor says, if a woman 1847 01:34:55,479 --> 01:34:58,000 Speaker 2: is just looking for sex, she shouldn't be upset when 1848 01:34:58,040 --> 01:34:59,479 Speaker 2: she discovers the other women. 1849 01:35:00,040 --> 01:35:01,720 Speaker 3: They at the level of your maturity. 1850 01:35:01,920 --> 01:35:04,599 Speaker 2: If you can't handle certain situations, you shouldn't put yourself 1851 01:35:04,600 --> 01:35:07,000 Speaker 2: in that type of position. Not everyone is able to 1852 01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:10,960 Speaker 2: handle the life of an entertainer, athlete, etc. He must 1853 01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:14,639 Speaker 2: follow the etcetera. Stop stop praying to God and think 1854 01:35:15,000 --> 01:35:19,320 Speaker 2: about things you can google. Women always say that. Women 1855 01:35:19,400 --> 01:35:21,719 Speaker 2: always say that a praying to God show them a sign, 1856 01:35:21,760 --> 01:35:24,240 Speaker 2: but usually they can find their own side that they 1857 01:35:24,320 --> 01:35:27,240 Speaker 2: just open their eyes. Yes, ladies, kinda says you should 1858 01:35:27,240 --> 01:35:29,920 Speaker 2: absolutely google him, check your social media pages. 1859 01:35:29,960 --> 01:35:31,240 Speaker 3: Everything is as a coincidence. 1860 01:35:31,280 --> 01:35:34,000 Speaker 2: Wake up. While most of his advice is brutal yet transparent, 1861 01:35:34,040 --> 01:35:35,880 Speaker 2: all hope is a lost will. Ask what advice he 1862 01:35:35,920 --> 01:35:38,240 Speaker 2: will give a woman wanting to marry a man and 1863 01:35:38,320 --> 01:35:40,799 Speaker 2: become his wife for all the right reasons, He said, simply, 1864 01:35:41,120 --> 01:35:45,160 Speaker 2: you have to fight sometimes for what you love.
