WEBVTT - KILLER MIKE SAYS "NO PRESIDENT HAS BEEN FOR BLACK PEOPLE!"

0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:01.720
<v Speaker 1>Let me ask you a question, because I know not

0:00:01.760 --> 0:00:05.120
<v Speaker 1>only are your entrepreneur, but you're really getting the politics.

0:00:05.600 --> 0:00:09.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to be. That was the segue.

0:00:09.160 --> 0:00:11.319
<v Speaker 3>That was the sailing because what you just said is

0:00:11.320 --> 0:00:13.280
<v Speaker 3>what you said about the president. Now, like I don't

0:00:13.520 --> 0:00:15.240
<v Speaker 3>have to like him or even vote for him, but

0:00:15.280 --> 0:00:17.520
<v Speaker 3>if he does something that helps my community, I should

0:00:17.520 --> 0:00:18.360
<v Speaker 3>take advantage of that.

0:00:18.320 --> 0:00:20.759
<v Speaker 2>Because I'm taking advantage, taking advantage of everything I'm telling.

0:00:20.800 --> 0:00:23.280
<v Speaker 4>But that's every president. Yeah, that ain't this president. Now

0:00:23.400 --> 0:00:27.400
<v Speaker 4>that there has been no president that has been for

0:00:27.800 --> 0:00:28.480
<v Speaker 4>the black.

0:00:28.200 --> 0:00:31.760
<v Speaker 2>Community to take that, Yeah, that's the fact.

0:00:31.800 --> 0:00:35.280
<v Speaker 4>That's that has been no president that has been for

0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:40.480
<v Speaker 4>the black community. But if your policy affects the black

0:00:40.479 --> 0:00:43.920
<v Speaker 4>community in a positive way, which can affect the greater community,

0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:46.840
<v Speaker 4>I have to pay you some attention. Is that if

0:00:46.840 --> 0:00:48.600
<v Speaker 4>I have to pay you something, you don't take Obamas

0:00:48.640 --> 0:00:54.000
<v Speaker 4>for No. I'm clear of what I say and how

0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:58.480
<v Speaker 4>I say. There has been no president that's for the

0:00:58.560 --> 0:01:03.600
<v Speaker 4>black community. But if that president playing in any way

0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:07.800
<v Speaker 4>or policy helps the black community, I'm for that thing.

0:01:08.480 --> 0:01:09.319
<v Speaker 2>You get what I'm saying.

0:01:09.600 --> 0:01:14.960
<v Speaker 4>I rate all us presidents at about a CE different

0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:18.000
<v Speaker 4>variations from a C minus down into the d's too.

0:01:18.720 --> 0:01:20.480
<v Speaker 4>You know, when you start off with slave masters at

0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:25.840
<v Speaker 4>presidents that's a really funky comment. So you have to

0:01:25.880 --> 0:01:28.640
<v Speaker 4>spend your life as a person of color reconciling the

0:01:28.680 --> 0:01:30.759
<v Speaker 4>fact that the dollars that in your pocket, the dead men,

0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:32.800
<v Speaker 4>the slave masters that are only that that that give

0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:35.520
<v Speaker 4>you worth and value to the things you're doing own people,

0:01:35.560 --> 0:01:37.440
<v Speaker 4>and that wealth is something. So you know, when we

0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:39.839
<v Speaker 4>get walk, when we get mad, we want to castigate

0:01:40.120 --> 0:01:42.640
<v Speaker 4>rappers and then are tinners and chit yill right, thank your.

0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:44.240
<v Speaker 2>Money you have there to do, japs though you're twenty

0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:44.800
<v Speaker 2>dollar bill.

0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:48.280
<v Speaker 4>That you're tipping the stripper with genocide on people that

0:01:48.320 --> 0:01:50.720
<v Speaker 4>were from Middle of America and that were red and were.

0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:51.560
<v Speaker 2>Here before you got here.

0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 4>So you're passing a genocidal bill to pay for your

0:01:54.960 --> 0:01:57.600
<v Speaker 4>Sarah and your your need to get grinded off.

0:01:57.800 --> 0:01:58.720
<v Speaker 2>And you've never.

0:01:58.640 --> 0:02:01.720
<v Speaker 4>Chastised yourself enough to say, I'll only pay my PayPal

0:02:01.800 --> 0:02:07.120
<v Speaker 4>because our vote or greenwood.

0:02:07.200 --> 0:02:08.760
<v Speaker 2>So I'm by the way.

0:02:09.080 --> 0:02:12.760
<v Speaker 4>You know what, you know, man, it matters of money.

0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:15.800
<v Speaker 4>We had better learn that we're going to have to

0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:20.680
<v Speaker 4>pack some emotion to the side to accomplish specific dolls

0:02:20.680 --> 0:02:23.760
<v Speaker 4>from a monetary standpoint, so that we can take care

0:02:23.800 --> 0:02:27.520
<v Speaker 4>of ourselves because no one's coming to savings, nothing's coming

0:02:27.560 --> 0:02:31.080
<v Speaker 4>out of sky to save us. Karma, although it's a

0:02:31.200 --> 0:02:34.600
<v Speaker 4>nice concept. Evil people live longer and they seem to

0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:39.160
<v Speaker 4>be happier. George Bushton down he was ninety middle something.

0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:42.320
<v Speaker 1>So but you were, you were supporting Bernie Sanders. Absolutely,

0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:47.840
<v Speaker 1>so you work, you have progressive I guess liberal views.

0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:53.440
<v Speaker 4>If if voting for Bernie Sanders takes my taxes up

0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:56.640
<v Speaker 4>out of the forties into the fifties, just as succeed

0:02:57.880 --> 0:03:00.600
<v Speaker 4>takes care of the next twenty five to thirty years

0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:04.760
<v Speaker 4>of Americans in terms of education, health care, trade that

0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:09.280
<v Speaker 4>trade and college education and basics and and extensive health care,

0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:12.520
<v Speaker 4>and provide social programs that grow us as a country.

0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:16.519
<v Speaker 4>I have no aversion to supporting it, and in fact,

0:03:16.639 --> 0:03:19.239
<v Speaker 4>I think that much of his policy has been raped, robbed,

0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:23.040
<v Speaker 4>and looted by both parties at this point, versus us

0:03:23.160 --> 0:03:26.840
<v Speaker 4>getting behind the person who wanted to give us everything

0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:29.840
<v Speaker 4>we would have needed during this pandemic, including some type

0:03:29.840 --> 0:03:33.360
<v Speaker 4>of universal income, including some type of health care that

0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:38.400
<v Speaker 4>was universal leading toward it, including decriminalization of marijuana, including

0:03:38.840 --> 0:03:40.720
<v Speaker 4>a federal task force that would have dealt with Row

0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:43.800
<v Speaker 4>Police House, including all these seas that would have affected us.

0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 4>But because we didn't do it, because we didn't go

0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:48.240
<v Speaker 4>that move, or because we got robbed of it, or whatever,

0:03:48.280 --> 0:03:50.560
<v Speaker 4>the theory is being, you gotta you know, you gotta

0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:52.520
<v Speaker 4>do with what you got, and you better master your coin,

0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:55.640
<v Speaker 4>you know, because we're we're in a system where as

0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:57.680
<v Speaker 4>much as they want to say they care like Vernion,

0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:01.800
<v Speaker 4>they don't. And if you're not going to allow me

0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:04.840
<v Speaker 4>to pay my ten or fifteen extra to let someone

0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:06.680
<v Speaker 4>like he'll eat the way, don't get mad. And I'm

0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:08.680
<v Speaker 4>gonna try to keep an extra ten of fifteen percent

0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:11.200
<v Speaker 4>and figure out who the fuck trump tax.

0:04:15.600 --> 0:04:18.080
<v Speaker 2>But I you know I didn't. I didn't vote for

0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:22.640
<v Speaker 2>the evil person. I wanted that, Ernests, What's up?

0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:25.200

0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:33.400
<v Speaker 5>to you by P and C Bank. A lot of

0:05:33.400 --> 0:05:37.000
<v Speaker 5>people think podcasts about work are boring, and sure, they

0:05:37.080 --> 0:05:40.960
<v Speaker 5>definitely can be, but understanding a professional's routine shows us

0:05:40.960 --> 0:05:44.600
<v Speaker 5>how they achieve their success little by little, day after day.

0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:48.080
<v Speaker 5>It's like banking with P and C Bank. It might

0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:51.080
<v Speaker 5>seem boring to save, plan and make calculated decisions with

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:54.159
<v Speaker 5>your bank, but keeping your money boring is what helps

0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:57.240
<v Speaker 5>you live or more happily fulfilled life. P and C

0:05:57.400 --> 0:06:02.560
<v Speaker 5>Bank Brilliantly Boring since eighteen sixty five. Brilliantly Boring since

0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:04.920
<v Speaker 5>eighteen sixty five is a service mark of the P

0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:07.880
<v Speaker 5>and C Financial Service Group, Inc. P and C Bank

0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:10.480
<v Speaker 5>National Association Member FDIC.

0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:14.279
<v Speaker 3>I want to go back to I want to go

0:06:14.320 --> 0:06:16.920
<v Speaker 3>back to Greenwood for a second, because a lot of times,

0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:19.839
<v Speaker 3>and even in the book, it dies into the fact

0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:24.320
<v Speaker 3>of black banks being put in neighborhoods right where deposits

0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:26.560
<v Speaker 3>weren't coming in at a frequent rate, and so they

0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:28.800
<v Speaker 3>had to charge higher interest rates when they weren't loaning

0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:30.520
<v Speaker 3>out money because most of people don't really understand how

0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:31.159
<v Speaker 3>banks make money.

0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:33.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the lows right.

0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:36.560
<v Speaker 3>So my thing is like, is Greenwood is there going

0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:38.400
<v Speaker 3>to be similar how other interest rates are going to

0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:39.880
<v Speaker 3>be competing with the big banks?

0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:45.000
<v Speaker 4>So that the first first versus deposits saving. So it's steps,

0:06:45.080 --> 0:06:47.600
<v Speaker 4>this is where we are first. First, the goal is

0:06:47.640 --> 0:06:51.520
<v Speaker 4>to wipe out check fashion, to wipe out the main

0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:56.920
<v Speaker 4>the main parasites in poor and working class people fly.

0:06:57.600 --> 0:07:00.320
<v Speaker 4>So you know, people here saved twenty forty bus sound

0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:03.200
<v Speaker 4>like much to them, But when you're talking about now

0:07:03.279 --> 0:07:06.040
<v Speaker 4>you can save ten percent of your income, what about

0:07:06.080 --> 0:07:07.720
<v Speaker 4>let person gets to raise and get five on your

0:07:07.800 --> 0:07:10.400
<v Speaker 4>thousand on. Now you're saving more money. So that is

0:07:10.400 --> 0:07:13.040
<v Speaker 4>the attack, and the next phase is in loans and

0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:14.840
<v Speaker 4>home ownership, automobile.

0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:15.920
<v Speaker 2>Ownership, and in the phase after that.

0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:19.880
<v Speaker 4>So I like the fact that Ryan is, unlike in

0:07:19.920 --> 0:07:22.640
<v Speaker 4>the past, is not trying to do everything himself at

0:07:22.640 --> 0:07:25.600
<v Speaker 4>the same time as much as he's seeking And they're

0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 4>talking to allies at this moment realizing who are they

0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:30.440
<v Speaker 4>going to get into business with in terms of partnering

0:07:30.440 --> 0:07:33.560
<v Speaker 4>with larger institutions that recover, who are the institutions that

0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:35.720
<v Speaker 4>your money is actually going to be sitting with, and

0:07:35.760 --> 0:07:37.560
<v Speaker 4>as a platform, what they can do to reduce the

0:07:37.600 --> 0:07:40.640
<v Speaker 4>even cost of you, help you become more financially literate, help.

0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:42.240
<v Speaker 3>You to save and something. And that's the first step.

0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:44.480
<v Speaker 3>Eradicate the check cash. Yes, pushing the back of the

0:07:44.560 --> 0:07:46.160
<v Speaker 3>day was also the sofone store.

0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:47.920
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, that's level.

0:07:49.560 --> 0:07:52.240
<v Speaker 3>Then we got the deposits and loans, and so I

0:07:52.240 --> 0:07:55.200
<v Speaker 3>guess the next the last things would be business loans.

0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:57.000
<v Speaker 2>Small business loans. Yeah what small man.

0:07:57.000 --> 0:07:58.480
<v Speaker 4>Now, I don't think that's the last stage. I just

0:07:58.520 --> 0:07:59.960
<v Speaker 4>think that I just think that if you're going to

0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:02.720
<v Speaker 4>run nine miles. Plot out your first three, then plot

0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:04.640
<v Speaker 4>out your next three, and then your final three. Right,

0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:07.240
<v Speaker 4>So let's just say those are the first three miles. Yeah,

0:08:07.240 --> 0:08:08.320
<v Speaker 4>and I saw I wrestling.

0:08:08.000 --> 0:08:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Where Ryan said, like, I think fifty percent of black businesses, Oh,

0:08:13.040 --> 0:08:16.679
<v Speaker 1>black businesses get loans at fifty percent lower rate white businesses.

0:08:17.000 --> 0:08:20.160
<v Speaker 4>I think it's we're returned, yeah, at fifty percent lower rates.

0:08:20.320 --> 0:08:24.160
<v Speaker 4>We're also denied in comparable application. We're denied twenty one

0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:25.640
<v Speaker 4>percent of the time in white's on eight.

0:08:25.880 --> 0:08:28.880
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So, and so I'm assuming that's something that you

0:08:28.920 --> 0:08:31.560
<v Speaker 1>guys will be trying to eradicate.

0:08:31.600 --> 0:08:33.760
<v Speaker 4>As far as with Greenswood, there's definitely going to be

0:08:33.800 --> 0:08:35.880
<v Speaker 4>you know, Greenwood is not Superman, doesn't come in the

0:08:35.880 --> 0:08:38.920
<v Speaker 4>same What it is is a part of the Avengures.

0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:42.560
<v Speaker 4>It's a part of alternative ways now for us to

0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:45.560
<v Speaker 4>take control around dollars. And that's everything from a new

0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:48.560
<v Speaker 4>black credit union that's popping up. It's everything from the

0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:50.600
<v Speaker 4>traditional black banks that are already in the market, whether

0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:53.520
<v Speaker 4>it be Citizens Trust or Carver or One United, and

0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:56.280
<v Speaker 4>that's new platform and fintech like Greenwood. You know, I'm

0:08:56.280 --> 0:08:59.600
<v Speaker 4>an advocate for you know, if you want to if

0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:01.520
<v Speaker 4>you want to get the freedom, take a whole lot

0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:05.040
<v Speaker 4>of buses, you know, don't depend on everyone going in

0:09:05.120 --> 0:09:06.960
<v Speaker 4>one bus, you know what I'm saying. And he even

0:09:07.000 --> 0:09:10.439
<v Speaker 4>told me and Ryan don't travel together, you know what

0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:12.199
<v Speaker 4>I mean. He's just like what you guys are doing

0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:15.800
<v Speaker 4>is that, See don't even travel together. Because if freedom

0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:18.920
<v Speaker 4>is the objective, there may be slightly different variations up,

0:09:19.320 --> 0:09:21.400
<v Speaker 4>but we'll get there even if it's not at the

0:09:21.400 --> 0:09:23.040
<v Speaker 4>same time. But I think we need a lot of

0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:25.800
<v Speaker 4>pistons firing and an engine, not just one, and we

0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:30.560
<v Speaker 4>have to we have to begin to end. I would

0:09:30.600 --> 0:09:35.480
<v Speaker 4>want or or need to critique or overly criticize based

0:09:35.520 --> 0:09:37.040
<v Speaker 4>on a cast failure.

0:09:36.760 --> 0:09:38.800
<v Speaker 2>Because the failure is something you learned from that, and

0:09:38.800 --> 0:09:39.280
<v Speaker 2>that's the part.

0:09:39.360 --> 0:09:43.240
<v Speaker 3>It was like if people understood their relationship with the money,

0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:46.200
<v Speaker 3>they would understand. It's like if my iPhone breaks, I

0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:48.560
<v Speaker 3>don't say I'm never using Apple. I'm just gonna get

0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:50.840
<v Speaker 3>another iPhone, you know what I mean. But if we like,

0:09:50.960 --> 0:09:52.880
<v Speaker 3>and I bank with citizens or shout out to citizens,

0:09:52.880 --> 0:09:56.160
<v Speaker 3>but if they like, if they mess up with deposit,

0:09:56.280 --> 0:09:57.839
<v Speaker 3>It's not like y'all never banking with them again.

0:09:57.880 --> 0:09:59.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna give them the same thing. We gotta get it fixed.

0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:01.760
<v Speaker 4>And again that's why I tell people like one day

0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:04.480
<v Speaker 4>as a leader, which I wasn't even in the in

0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:06.840
<v Speaker 4>the space to be, but they pay another people like

0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:08.040
<v Speaker 4>that black women to make you leave.

0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:12.000
<v Speaker 2>But you know, I'm gonna say my bad, I fucked

0:10:12.040 --> 0:10:18.160
<v Speaker 4>Up my graduates from my school being force back drop

0:10:18.840 --> 0:10:22.560
<v Speaker 4>back drop, Mike drop, back drop drop
