Speaker 1: Good morning, peeps, and welcome to WOKF Daily with Meet
Speaker 1: Your Girl Daniel Moody, recording from the Home Bunker. Folks,
Speaker 1: we are continuing with our series this week on Queer
Speaker 1: the Vote and our partnership with the LGBTQ Task Force.
Speaker 1: As I've mentioned, I had the opportunity to speak with
Speaker 1: LGBTQ activists who live in battleground states while I was
Speaker 1: at the Creating Change Conference last month in New Orleans,
Speaker 1: and I am very excited to bring you those conversations
Speaker 1: this week. Today, we're gonna listen to my interview with
Speaker 1: Bishop Tanya Rawls, and I can't express to you how
Speaker 1: much I love this conversation. I particularly really enjoy having
Speaker 1: conversations with queer faith leaders because what the right has
Speaker 1: done is they have essentially separated tried to separate the
Speaker 1: queer community, the Democrats, progressives from religion right by saying
Speaker 1: that we are godless, by saying that we are an abomination,
Speaker 1: by using their Bible and using twisted words and rhetoric
Speaker 1: as a way to disassociate us with faith. And that
Speaker 1: couldn't be further from the truth. And so in this
Speaker 1: conversation with Bishop Rawls, we talk about faith and being queer.
Speaker 1: We talk about what it means to hold on to
Speaker 1: faith in you know, times of darkness, and we get
Speaker 1: into such, you know, an amazing conversation about freedom, about justice,
Speaker 1: and about religion. And I really hope that you all
Speaker 1: enjoyed this conversation. Coming up next, folks, I am very
Speaker 1: excited to welcome to OOKF Daily Bishop Tanya Rawls, who's
Speaker 1: a national faith leader and social justice advocate. She founded
Speaker 1: the Unity Fellowship Church in Charlotte and Sacred Souls United
Speaker 1: Church of Christ in Charlotte, North Carolina, and is founder
Speaker 1: and executive director of the Freedom Center for Social Justice.
Speaker 1: A lot of titles, a lot of good work. I
Speaker 1: want to start off, Bishop Rawls with talking about the
Speaker 1: way in which Democrats, the left, progressives have ceded religion
Speaker 1: to the right. They've been able to claim religion, claim
Speaker 1: God right and around that claim, and what we've seen,
Speaker 1: particularly over the last nine years on Namaga supremacy, which
Speaker 1: is what I call Donald Trump's regime, is anything other
Speaker 1: than godly. And I'm curious, from your perspective, as a
Speaker 1: faith leader who is also progressive, who also is fighting
Speaker 1: for social justice and freedoms, why do you think that
Speaker 1: we've allowed them to claim faith.
Speaker 2: It's a great question, I am. I have been fighting
Speaker 2: at the intersection of faith and race, social justice, sexual orientation,
Speaker 2: and gender identity for many years, and that intersection is
Speaker 2: an important one because it's one that I feel we
Speaker 2: at the left did walk away from because of the
Speaker 2: sense that faith was not going to be that important.
Speaker 2: I think in order to really understand the depth of
Speaker 2: all of this, the depth of all of this, one
Speaker 2: would have to understand where the religious right anchored their base,
Speaker 2: and that was in the South. And so I think
Speaker 2: many on the left before it was you know, after
Speaker 2: it was late, said oh yeah, the South is going
Speaker 2: to be important. Oh yeah, we do have to engage
Speaker 2: with some of these approaches people are taking to using
Speaker 2: faith as a negative tool instead of positive. There was
Speaker 2: a deep seated strategy that was pulled together by the right,
Speaker 2: and the very fact that we even use that word
Speaker 2: the right, it was intentionally selected. So if you think
Speaker 2: about words like the right, the moral majority, all of
Speaker 2: this language that supposedly centers core Christian Christian principles, in reality,
Speaker 2: it was all part of a long game strategy to
Speaker 2: impact the hearts and minds and spirits of those who
Speaker 2: would be likely to vote for the right, and to
Speaker 2: make it seem like that those that do that are
Speaker 2: the most moral. That's the moral majority. We're the majority,
Speaker 2: the moral majority. The other thing I think that got
Speaker 2: complicated was when activists really had, at some point, not all,
Speaker 2: but many, made a decision that we did not need
Speaker 2: the church to win. We don't need faith to win.
Speaker 2: We need good policies, we need strategies that move politicians.
Speaker 2: We need those things. But what they left behind was
Speaker 2: the voters right. So we as much as she is complicated,
Speaker 2: the church still has power and a lot of it.
Speaker 2: Communities have power and a lot of it. What I
Speaker 2: think we on the left are grappling with is what
Speaker 2: to do with that. But we're pretty far down the
Speaker 2: road now and we're trying hard to And what the
Speaker 2: we that I'm talking about now is the broader progressive
Speaker 2: movement now owning Oh my goodness, Yes, faith is a
Speaker 2: piece and it isn't about It isn't about the quote
Speaker 2: unquote church. It is and this is the thing that
Speaker 2: people have to understand, It is about a mindset. I
Speaker 2: had been baffled by two things recently. One is deep
Speaker 2: concern about what's happening in Gaza, yes, and no understanding
Speaker 2: about how any Christian person who claims to be Christian
Speaker 2: could support that behavior, could support that genocide in those atrocities,
Speaker 2: and people are doing it based on old Testament texts
Speaker 2: to suggest that the occupier has a right to somebody
Speaker 2: else's land. The other thing that has been troubling is
Speaker 2: the huge drop off or rejection that many of our
Speaker 2: younger people are having in throwing. And I can't even
Speaker 2: say younger now anymore, because the churches have problems. Communities
Speaker 2: of faith have had problems, and so to say to
Speaker 2: the movable middle, believe in the church, believe in democracy.
Speaker 2: I have young people now who are telling me they
Speaker 2: considered voting Republican people that I would have never considered
Speaker 2: the thought of thinking about it that way. What's most
Speaker 2: troubling is while faith got a lot of people, got
Speaker 2: the right, a lot of capital, what it also did
Speaker 2: was on the left I think really caused a break
Speaker 2: in our movement, because you have people that feel that
Speaker 2: faith is important in others who say, I reject all
Speaker 2: of it. And so the thing the wright did was
Speaker 2: they never lost lockstep with each other there is no
Speaker 2: grappling someone I heard a post that was so good
Speaker 2: yesterday actually, and it was someone It was a commentator
Speaker 2: who said, the reason that people are voting for Donald
Speaker 2: Trump this time and are backing him and the fact
Speaker 2: that his popularity is growing with each indictment, They said,
Speaker 2: it's because, fundamentally, and this was a conservative talking fundamentally,
Speaker 2: we do not believe he lost, and many of us
Speaker 2: believe he deserves a second chance.
Speaker 1: The thing that gets me, as of the time of
Speaker 1: this recording, we had the Iowa Caucuses and you know
Speaker 1: now the clown cars says moved on to New Hampshire.
Speaker 1: But on cable News they interviewed a Iowa caucus voter,
Speaker 1: a white male, CIS evangelical, self identified evangelical voter, who said,
Speaker 1: Bishop God uses interesting tools and Donald Trump is one
Speaker 1: of those interesting tools.
Speaker 3: And I my mouth a game, It's real. I just
Speaker 3: don't I guess what I grapple with.
Speaker 1: And there are two things I want to come back
Speaker 1: to in what you just said, which is the fact
Speaker 1: that there is a divide between those inside of the
Speaker 1: very large democratic tent, those who are aligned with faith
Speaker 1: in those that are not right, those that are just
Speaker 1: aligned with facts and stats and policy and X, Y
Speaker 1: and z, and they scoff at faith in a lot
Speaker 1: of ways. But when I here a wide evangelical Christian
Speaker 1: talk to me that a man that has been found
Speaker 1: guilty of sexual assault, a man that is achieved that
Speaker 1: is a liar, is an interesting tool of God. I
Speaker 1: don't know where we meet those people, Bishop, I don't know.
Speaker 1: And that's why I say thirty percent of the country
Speaker 1: is gone because you can't meet that type of cult
Speaker 1: like thinking with facts, because they are not answering to
Speaker 1: the same set.
Speaker 3: Of values, morals and reality that the rest of us are.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, the way that I when I'm speaking with
Speaker 2: people and they bring that fact up. Did you ever
Speaker 2: call Donald Trump your president? No? And was there anything
Speaker 2: anybody could say to you that could cause you to
Speaker 2: call Donald Trump your president? No? Okay did it? When?
Speaker 2: Would you have wanted President Obama to have another term
Speaker 2: possibly or somebody other than Trump to have Absolutely? All right,
Speaker 2: So there was nothing anybody could say to you, because
Speaker 2: fundamentally we felt the election was stolen. We felt that
Speaker 2: he was at the very least a narcissist and possibly
Speaker 2: a fascist or other things that I'm lord, I'm up
Speaker 2: here just saying all this stuff is early in the morning.
Speaker 2: But but what I will say is that has helped
Speaker 2: me understand the Republican position because what no one could
Speaker 2: say anything to many of us after we finished crying
Speaker 2: that would allow us to cross that bridge to say
Speaker 2: I'm willing to support this president. It was just I
Speaker 2: think anybody can say to me, right, because I felt
Speaker 2: it was stolen, they feel it was stolen. There is
Speaker 2: nothing that supports that. We had a lot on the
Speaker 2: left to support it. The fact that strange things happened
Speaker 2: during Trump's first twenty sixteen that actually helped me for context. So, no,
Speaker 2: the goal isn't to go for that thirty percent. They're
Speaker 2: not going to move. However, what is important is that
Speaker 2: we understand at the intersection that I opened with when
Speaker 2: I said, you know, I work at the intersection of
Speaker 2: faith and race, social justice, sexual entation, and gender identity
Speaker 2: to look at culture shift. That's a different kind of work.
Speaker 2: It's not transactional. It's not let's go talk to our
Speaker 2: senator about this particular bill that's coming up or whatever, right,
Speaker 2: And that's a strategy that I don't know we on
Speaker 2: the left have been able to commit to as much
Speaker 2: in terms of staying together with those who can work
Speaker 2: with us to help move the needle. We're not going
Speaker 2: to all agree on everything. I'm in the South, okay,
Speaker 2: I'm in North Carolina specific we have had to really
Speaker 2: learn how to and we don't definitely not have it locked,
Speaker 2: but we have to learn how to work with people
Speaker 2: that have fundamental differences on some levels but are solidly
Speaker 2: and with us on others. And I think that's going
Speaker 2: to be important, and which is why I'm happy in
Speaker 2: terms of some of the things happening here at creating
Speaker 2: change because there's opportunities for us to be together with
Speaker 2: different minds.
Speaker 1: What makes me concerned, I think bishop is a couple.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a lot of things that make me concerned,
Speaker 1: but there are a couple of things as it pertains
Speaker 1: to faith, which is that as the times getting singly hard,
Speaker 1: there is a turning to something else. Right because myself,
Speaker 1: I can use myself as an example over the last
Speaker 1: several years, I'm not a person that subscribes to any
Speaker 1: organized religion, but I am a deep person of faith
Speaker 1: and spiritual connection. And I wonder with the divide that
Speaker 1: you mentioned that we do have inside of the Democratic
Speaker 1: Party as we are seeing such atrocities and our human
Speaker 1: brains are trying to reconcile. How how how do we
Speaker 1: say that we're a country that stands up for democracy
Speaker 1: but this is but Gaza and genocide is what we're
Speaker 1: funding with our tax dollars. How do we have a
Speaker 1: president currently that says that he believes in you know,
Speaker 1: justice and equity and yet is not at all in
Speaker 1: statements as it pertains to Gaza and Genese doesn't even
Speaker 1: utter the word Palestinian. Right, So when we see these things,
Speaker 1: I think that people in general humans struggle to make sense.
Speaker 1: And so when we can't make sense, right, we search
Speaker 1: for faith. And so how do you see that playing
Speaker 1: into the next ten months of We have no idea
Speaker 1: how long these wars, multiple wars are going to be
Speaker 1: going on for. But what we do know is that
Speaker 1: this is the first time that we're watching it in
Speaker 1: real time. Yes, right, we're watching it in real time.
Speaker 1: We're not waiting for it to be filtered through one
Speaker 1: of a handful of news stations. We are watching it
Speaker 1: with our own eyes on all of our devices. And
Speaker 1: I'm just I know that it's far gone, as you said,
Speaker 1: but it's just like, is there a way that we
Speaker 1: reclaim faith and connection and our and coalesce around our
Speaker 1: common humanity.
Speaker 2: Yeah, great point, and absolutely there is a power that
Speaker 2: is emerging because of the environment we're in, a power
Speaker 2: that is bigger than many of the fundamental belief systems
Speaker 2: that many of us have stood in. America has never
Speaker 2: experienced what we're experiencing now. And the other thing I
Speaker 2: think that's important to to note is America democracy isn't
Speaker 2: an experiment of sorts. In America, she really has never
Speaker 2: accomplished it fully an experiment, and so as she emerges,
Speaker 2: she being democracy. I don't like the word morality because
Speaker 2: it is it has been bastardized at this point. It
Speaker 2: is a word that is subjective and one that has
Speaker 2: been so misuse used that it's actually almost toxic at
Speaker 2: this point. So that said, we all have to imagine differently.
Speaker 2: I don't trust the systems that we're supposed to be
Speaker 2: built to make me safe. I'm a black out lesbian
Speaker 2: woman cis gender. These systems weren't built for me. These
Speaker 2: systems weren't designed for my people to thrive. And if
Speaker 2: that's the case. Then what I'm excited about now, incredibly excited,
Speaker 2: is the ways that many activists, faith leaders, regular people
Speaker 2: walking down the street because of exactly what you said.
Speaker 2: We're trying to find that place, but we're also finding
Speaker 2: each other, those of us who are doing the grappling,
Speaker 2: we are finding each other. So if I were to
Speaker 2: use my faith talk, I would say spirit is drawing
Speaker 2: us one to another. I was not aware of your
Speaker 2: podcast until I came to Creating Change. I came to
Speaker 2: Creating Change, so your podcast, and like, how do I
Speaker 2: not know this woman? How am I not engaging with
Speaker 2: her more deeply? That is happening globally? Actually right, and
Speaker 2: if we understand a move like that, the transformation that
Speaker 2: is going on and about to manifest in the next
Speaker 2: ten months is going to be revolutionary.
Speaker 1: There's a word that you said that I have been
Speaker 1: meditating on imagination, which comes from a place of dreaming,
Speaker 1: which comes, I think from a place of ease. And
Speaker 1: what I'm fine, what I'm grappling with is the ability
Speaker 1: for us to imagine a future that we have not seen.
Speaker 1: When we are anchored with so much to despair and hopelessness,
Speaker 1: how do we bishop get to a dream scape, to
Speaker 1: an imagination scape that takes us out of the present
Speaker 1: despair and hopelessness that, by the way right the MAGA
Speaker 1: supremis are weaponizing. This is where I struggle and I am.
Speaker 1: You know, the listeners of my shows, they witness me
Speaker 1: go up and down and vacillate from we can do
Speaker 1: it to don't bother me. I'm going to stay in
Speaker 1: bed today.
Speaker 2: Again. Another great point. We don't get out of it.
Speaker 2: That's the that's the fantasy that somehow I'm going to
Speaker 2: be able to put this down and then move on
Speaker 2: to this other place. The thing that excites me in
Speaker 2: this moment is I have other movements that inspire me.
Speaker 2: I have other dreamers who did not necessarily get to
Speaker 2: live to see their dream manifested and the fights that
Speaker 2: they were doing. I didn't have to. You know, when
Speaker 2: I go and i'm talking truth to power, I'm not
Speaker 2: worrying about somebody waiting outside to stab me in my stomach.
Speaker 2: I'm not waiting for somebody to drag me to what
Speaker 2: I've been dragged to jail. But you know not, But
Speaker 2: but I'm not. I'm not. I don't. I don't have
Speaker 2: the fear that a dog is going to attack me.
Speaker 2: How did they dream? What? What did they have? What
Speaker 2: did what? What made mallion Wright Edelson believe that she
Speaker 2: could actually create a fund to defend children? What? What?
Speaker 2: What in her history? Her background? They didn't have the
Speaker 2: history we have to pull from. We've got elders still
Speaker 2: alive who can help show a path. And I bring
Speaker 2: the word elder up because the other thing I think
Speaker 2: that we have greatly lost is the power of what
Speaker 2: comes through the words and experiences of our elders. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they're light bearers. They hold lights. They help us to
Speaker 2: buck up when we want to lay down and our
Speaker 2: comfortable beds and say, my god, I worked for twelve
Speaker 2: hours today fighting in justice. It's like, yeah, they would
Speaker 2: have worked twelve hours fighting in justice and then clean
Speaker 2: Moss's house or ironed Missy's clothes to feed their children
Speaker 2: and still walk to work instead of catching the bus. Right. So,
Speaker 2: I think we've gotten a little soft personally. Privilege will
Speaker 2: do that, and if we are not able to own that,
Speaker 2: it's going to be problematic. This is hard work. This
Speaker 2: is work that requires sacrifice. This is work that requires
Speaker 2: us to put ourselves out there and risk something and
Speaker 2: I don't know that a lot of people are willing
Speaker 2: to risk I don't know that a lot of people
Speaker 2: are willing to cross generational lines. I don't know if
Speaker 2: you know how many are willing to cross lines to
Speaker 2: trans people, to gay and queer people, to the disabled community.
Speaker 2: But again, the spirit is moving and it is drawing us.
Speaker 2: It's not for me to work with everybody. Yeah, but
Speaker 2: I can tell you when I do fine tribe, I
Speaker 2: recognize tribe. I've met white tribe and I've met black folk.
Speaker 2: It's so far not my tribe, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: So the it's more complicated because back in the day
Speaker 2: it was black and white. That's not our truth anymore.
Speaker 2: So this is where imagination comes. We're having to now
Speaker 2: think about ways to work with people we never thought
Speaker 2: we'd even be in conversation with. We're having to grapple
Speaker 2: with what it means to own our own biases. I
Speaker 2: have to push past some of my stuff. I have
Speaker 2: to do. I got a good therapist, you know what
Speaker 2: I'm saying. Because I want to note that too, because
Speaker 2: to your point, and you've referenced the mind several times,
Speaker 2: you don't do this stuff and not get damaged on
Speaker 2: some level, right, if you're not careful.
Speaker 1: I appreciate so much that you just brought up therapy
Speaker 1: and mental health. I talk to people all the time.
Speaker 1: I have a therapist that I've had for the last
Speaker 1: several several years, and without her, I would not be
Speaker 1: able to navigate and would not have grown and been
Speaker 1: able to expand, to be able to carry some of
Speaker 1: the things that have been put in our paths. And
Speaker 1: you know, I want to ask you this last question,
Speaker 1: which is for the hopeless, right, because I agree with you.
Speaker 1: I think that in many ways we have gotten solved.
Speaker 1: I think in many ways, like if I'm real with myself,
Speaker 1: would I have been walking twenty miles to work? Probably
Speaker 1: not right in order to you know, see through a boycott, right,
Speaker 1: Like I think that we have to meet ourselves and
Speaker 1: the moment where we are. But where I'm concerned is
Speaker 1: with this lingering sense of despair and hopelessness that seems
Speaker 1: to be taking control and hold over every generation, over
Speaker 1: every group, so much so that I hear rumblings of
Speaker 1: people saying, well, I am not going to vote. It's
Speaker 1: not this, you know, Biden is not aligned with my values.
Speaker 1: I am not going to do X, Y, and Z,
Speaker 1: and I'm thinking to myself, Oh, so you just want
Speaker 1: to be in the camp then, right, Like, what does
Speaker 1: this look like for you? So what do you say
Speaker 1: to that?
Speaker 2: People think one of the worst things in the world
Speaker 2: are the things that hatred produce. Right, hatred has produced
Speaker 2: horrific things, But personally, I believe there are very few
Speaker 2: things worse than hopelessness. When one loses hope, there is
Speaker 2: no energy to be much more than hopeless. And the
Speaker 2: very act of work or being called to work right
Speaker 2: is overwhelming. And so I think a couple of things
Speaker 2: in reference to this. One is creating increasing numbers of
Speaker 2: safe spaces where people can come and grapple together, increasing
Speaker 2: number of spaces that celebrate joy in a time when
Speaker 2: it is difficult. I have to do things intentionally to
Speaker 2: bring joy into my life because of the nature of
Speaker 2: my work. Right, I am clear that everybody somebody when
Speaker 2: they were talking about I'd heard someone say something negative
Speaker 2: one time about Al Sharpton, and I'm talking about I'm
Speaker 2: from New Jersey, from Northern Jersey, so I'm talking about
Speaker 2: Al Sharpton. That would be in the sweatsuit and curlis
Speaker 2: in his Hey, I'm talking about that Al Sharpton, okay,
Speaker 2: And they were comparing him to Jesse Jackson and saying
Speaker 2: how they felt kind of ashamed about the way that
Speaker 2: Al was showing up versus Jesse Jackson. And the best
Speaker 2: response I ever heard of that was someone saying, you
Speaker 2: don't wear a suit to go to the bottom of
Speaker 2: the barrel. And those who go down to the bottom
Speaker 2: of the barrel to stir up the dirt to reveal
Speaker 2: the stuff, the crud that's down there, they said, that's
Speaker 2: the work. That's OL's work, and he does it well.
Speaker 2: And they said, and we need Jess though, because by
Speaker 2: the time it gets to Jesse, Jesse skimming the residue
Speaker 2: off the top. Come on, And I'm saying, I'm giving
Speaker 2: that to say, you have the people who would have
Speaker 2: rejected Jesse and who would have rejected Al, but we
Speaker 2: needed Jesse and Al. And so if there are also
Speaker 2: increasing ways that we can validate more of the spectrum,
Speaker 2: and in our world now that has to also be multiracial,
Speaker 2: multi issue. You know, it was a little bit of
Speaker 2: a simpler time when all I had to do was
Speaker 2: fight against everything that's anti black. Well, I want to
Speaker 2: talk about the stuff this anti woman. I want to
Speaker 2: talk about the stuff that's anti choice for what happens
Speaker 2: to my body and women like me and everybody voting
Speaker 2: against that isn't my right to choose? Isn't somebody on
Speaker 2: the far right right? So this is where I talk
Speaker 2: talk about imagination. We have to be able to open
Speaker 2: our minds up more and know that there is a
Speaker 2: spectrum that we do not have a container for. We
Speaker 2: don't have the rights container, and I'm happy about that actually,
Speaker 2: but we do have to find a way of being
Speaker 2: able to harness the amazing power, the incredible strength, the
Speaker 2: resilience that is our community. And the hour I'm speaking
Speaker 2: about isn't even so much just progressive versus conservative, because
Speaker 2: there are conservatives that I do share some views with. Right.
Speaker 2: This is why we have to be so careful about
Speaker 2: how we do some things. But at the end of
Speaker 2: the day, we have to get unapologetic about being full
Speaker 2: throated in reference to the things we don't want, we
Speaker 2: will not accept, and that we do want right And
Speaker 2: everybody's not going to do all those things. It's not
Speaker 2: for everybody to do all the things. We need a
Speaker 2: jesse and we need it now. And we need to
Speaker 2: get behind those who are doing that work, not judging
Speaker 2: just because we don't like their hair color. Today, Who
Speaker 2: the heck cares, it's their body. Let them do what
Speaker 2: the heck they want to do, right. But what I
Speaker 2: do care about is if you're impacting whether or not
Speaker 2: my grandchildren and great grandchildren get a good education. I
Speaker 2: ain't gonna stand by and watching mess that up. So
Speaker 2: hope can be restored. That's the good news. The good
Speaker 2: news is hope can be restored. And I am believing
Speaker 2: for a nation that enables us to build not only hope,
Speaker 2: but freedom and justice for all.
Speaker 1: Bishop Tanya Rawls, thank you so incredibly much for your work,
Speaker 1: for your words. I'm for making the time for WOKF.
Speaker 1: I hope that I am able to call on you again.
Speaker 2: Absolutely absolutely, this has been absolutely amazing, and thank you
Speaker 2: for your courage with your podcast. I have to say
Speaker 2: just a full disclosure. I was like, now is it
Speaker 2: okay for me to do a podcast called woke a F?
Speaker 2: I had to sit for a second, Sister, I'm not
Speaker 2: gonna lie, and I said, well, let me check it out,
Speaker 2: let me just look at it. And because they said no,
Speaker 2: you really need to meet her. And then you know
Speaker 2: certain people when they say you should meet somebody you
Speaker 2: like saying, and I said I need to go to
Speaker 2: walk on f I do. And I wanted to say
Speaker 2: the whole thing. I don't even like having this. Can
Speaker 2: I say it one time? I love woke as fuck
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna be acknowledging that everywhere, and I think
Speaker 2: I want to say the whole thing. I thank you.
Speaker 1: That is it for me today, dear friends on woke
Speaker 1: A app as always power to the people and to
Speaker 1: all the people.
Speaker 3: Power, get woke and stay woke as fuck.
Speaker 1: Yeah,
