Speaker 1: Talks one on one with brother Eleen, and there were
Speaker 1: times when we were in sync and there are times
Speaker 1: when we just had a disagreement and we share that. Well,
Speaker 1: at least I'm gonna share that on this podcast episode.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure what title I'm gonna call, but we're
Speaker 1: gonna revisit the Bobby Shop Talks because because it's organic
Speaker 1: and it's just two black men having a conversation there,
Speaker 1: later on someone came in and the one of their
Speaker 1: hair cut and they participated and so especially at a
Speaker 1: time with me and was just at a you know,
Speaker 1: a distance in terms of our perspective. Listen. I'm also
Speaker 1: gonna feature on this episode a book that just came
Speaker 1: out by a young man named A. K. A. E.
Speaker 1: T but his name is Dr Eric To. I don't
Speaker 1: think he liked to go by doc, but he got
Speaker 1: his PhD. Eric Thomas. He he wrote a book called You,
Speaker 1: Oh You. So I'm gonna feature a book review on that,
Speaker 1: and I think that's gonna be enough for this particular
Speaker 1: episode because the barby Shop Talk instead of be chopping
Speaker 1: it up, I'm bringing the old conversation alright, So stay
Speaker 1: tuned for this episode fifty first episode of Malik's Bookshop.
Speaker 1: The Barber Shop Talks debate is about to begin, and
Speaker 1: I gotta do a public service announcement. Why because I'm
Speaker 1: gonna pre warn you right now this right here, it's
Speaker 1: a debate, is heated, it's passionate, It got a lot
Speaker 1: of energy, and hey, I'm just warning you up front
Speaker 1: that it might not be something that you know because
Speaker 1: sometimes we haven't a dinlog and then sometimes having a monologue. Right,
Speaker 1: So it is what it is. We brothers, We love
Speaker 1: each other, but hey, we have a disagreement and I'm
Speaker 1: about to air this Bobby Shock talking, so I hope
Speaker 1: you enjoy it. I never know when you're gonna drop
Speaker 1: bombs when I'm in the chair, So I got to
Speaker 1: you know, put the recorder on them. I'm at the
Speaker 1: Bobby shot again. I got to make sure I get
Speaker 1: it because my brother be dropping bombs. I gotta make sure.
Speaker 1: I gotta make sure that it's recorded. Man for the audience,
Speaker 1: because it's raw, it's real, it's community, it's social, it's culture.
Speaker 1: Talk to me, man, finish your point. They want are
Speaker 1: people to think that they're black, negro colors. All of
Speaker 1: these name brands, non nationality, name brand that Congress came
Speaker 1: the brand does with to keep us trapped under a
Speaker 1: what they call a corporate status system. So they can
Speaker 1: have you're stitching over you to tell you what you
Speaker 1: can do, so you rustle with the term black people
Speaker 1: identify themselves as black people. Of course I do. Why
Speaker 1: because black is an adjective, is not a noun according
Speaker 1: to the English system, the English system that operates under
Speaker 1: that this country operates under. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: the language sy isn't that the courts operate under, which
Speaker 1: is Latin. Don't more mean black? Huh, don't more mean black? No, sir,
Speaker 1: more don't mean black. It doesn't mean Morocco. No, it
Speaker 1: don't mean Morocco. The word the word more also goes
Speaker 1: artory back to the ancient one of the first empires
Speaker 1: on this planet, back in Arabia, what they call a
Speaker 1: so called Black civilization empire. But what does the medimate
Speaker 1: they called the mur Uru Empire, and what does the
Speaker 1: word mean. Well, in the ancient language the ms, it's
Speaker 1: called the member and in me or move, and it's
Speaker 1: represented in ancient hieroglyphs as a wave of water, so
Speaker 1: it represents motion. It represents the more inflowment of things.
Speaker 1: That's why the letter M today the like if you
Speaker 1: look at the ancient letter M, it's like it's like
Speaker 1: a squiggly line that looks like, you know, a wave
Speaker 1: of water, and then they shorten it to make it
Speaker 1: look like how the M looks today now they are
Speaker 1: represents the sun raw and it represents the aile died.
Speaker 1: The represent knowledge, so represent one who flows with knowledge
Speaker 1: through his system. Here it was the title of the
Speaker 1: high priest Batch in ancient Kimmit and back in ancient
Speaker 1: Arabia amongst the Amuru Empire and an ancient commet. So
Speaker 1: this is all in the hieroglyphic or the world more.
Speaker 1: It's been here for a long time. There's nothing New Okay,
Speaker 1: But did not the people identify themselves being the original
Speaker 1: people of the of the planet Earth, and didn't and
Speaker 1: didn't they identify themselves as also being dark and being
Speaker 1: coming out of triple triple darkness? And then and then
Speaker 1: what words did they use? This crime? Because words like berber,
Speaker 1: kimm it, all of these words mean black. Na. The
Speaker 1: word burber means a barbarian. That that's a Greek word
Speaker 1: barbario that come from I mean, not a group. What
Speaker 1: what I'm saying is that, okay, that the Africans didn't
Speaker 1: call themselves burber. The Europeans call them Berber because they
Speaker 1: were black people had indigenous names, so they tried they
Speaker 1: was named the names of the people of the tribal
Speaker 1: named after the original the originator of that tribe. Right.
Speaker 1: But when I'm trying to say what I'm what I'm
Speaker 1: trying to get back, when we talked about the word Berber,
Speaker 1: the Europeans referred to us as that barbarians savages. So
Speaker 1: but it also means that black, that black savage, that
Speaker 1: black barbarians. Because no, no, but what I'm saying the
Speaker 1: word berber means black, just like the word black. But
Speaker 1: it also means, but it was just but it meant
Speaker 1: the black. Yeah, yeah, because because because because, but hold on,
Speaker 1: the Romans. They didn't call the Romans, called the Europeans savages, barbarians.
Speaker 1: They called the blacks in Africa savages, but they called
Speaker 1: them burber because they were black. So the word black
Speaker 1: was always meant to be part of that, not just
Speaker 1: us being a savage, not us being but once again,
Speaker 1: but going back to the question you asked, what did
Speaker 1: we call our sell you going by what somebody else
Speaker 1: forced upon us? So you that's like, that's like what
Speaker 1: you're doing right out. That's like you said, well, we're
Speaker 1: niggers because they called us niggers. No, we never called
Speaker 1: ourselves nigger. We adopted that today because that was fourth
Speaker 1: upon it and then grain enough all these years, but
Speaker 1: that wasn't a black. Black folks always around ancient times
Speaker 1: referred to themselves as black people. How do you know that?
Speaker 1: I never historically, it's there are there are a lot
Speaker 1: of indigenous words that described It's just like that. Did
Speaker 1: we that the black man called the earth a name?
Speaker 1: Like he named planets in the Solar system? Did the
Speaker 1: black man name every animal on the planet? Did the
Speaker 1: black men know he was black? Why did he paint
Speaker 1: pictures all in the pyramids as being black? If we
Speaker 1: if they didn't identify themselves as black people, you gotta
Speaker 1: describe your back to the point people called themselves. You
Speaker 1: read any dictionary? Do you read any ancient literature? They
Speaker 1: didn't call themselves by crayon colored? Brother? What's wrong with
Speaker 1: being identified? Being black? The word? Brother? Back? Black? Black
Speaker 1: is black is not a color. Black is the ass
Speaker 1: of life, brother, Black is the essence of all colors.
Speaker 1: Black is not a cut is the root? Hold on, brother,
Speaker 1: it's first, I'm trying to help you understand where I'm
Speaker 1: coming from. But you're trying to explain me something after
Speaker 1: you asked me a question. You can't even give me
Speaker 1: the color of the universe. You can't give me the
Speaker 1: color of the universe that we talk, move all the sons, move,
Speaker 1: all the stars out. What color is? But color? What
Speaker 1: color is? What color? You? Brother? I'm a original man.
Speaker 1: I'm black. I'm black, brother, add my child, I'm black
Speaker 1: right now to tell you with a crayon, your skin
Speaker 1: is brown. Brother, I'm the black man. I'm a black man. Brother. First,
Speaker 1: why do you ever problem being identified as a black man.
Speaker 1: But I just told you why why? I just told why? What? So, brother,
Speaker 1: you're talking about complexion, alright, the color of my complexion
Speaker 1: as me about Alright, I'm talking about identity, not complexion,
Speaker 1: brother Politan, and let's just call it because why brother,
Speaker 1: man read, I don't have a problem. We are black people, brother,
Speaker 1: and we live all over the planet. We all black people,
Speaker 1: and we live all over the planet. Brother, Black is
Speaker 1: not black is not a color at all. We've been taught, brother,
Speaker 1: and all the science of this world, all right, have
Speaker 1: identified humans in a classification. Whether we agree with it
Speaker 1: or not, it doesn't matter. The point is we gotta
Speaker 1: get understanding at the end of the day, how do
Speaker 1: we identify with original people born in America, Britain, Um, Africa, Sweden, Germany, Brazil?
Speaker 1: All right, how do we connect because we still have
Speaker 1: all of the original people, all right? So when he
Speaker 1: asked me, why don't identify black? I said, according to
Speaker 1: the English system, I said, I'm not talking about how
Speaker 1: do we ate two people, beauty, I said, a quarter
Speaker 1: to this system that we operate under. This system in
Speaker 1: America operates under what it's called a called civil law.
Speaker 1: Civil law is known as Roman law. Roman law is
Speaker 1: based upon their religious trees that come out of the Vatican. Therefore,
Speaker 1: when you operate under Roman law and you're using words
Speaker 1: like black and what have you under their system, that
Speaker 1: puts you under a certain category for them to have
Speaker 1: juristiction over you, to do this and to do that
Speaker 1: to you, and to deprive you of your rights. That's
Speaker 1: why I said, I don't use it. I said, I'm
Speaker 1: not talking about how we view ourselves anciently religiously, how
Speaker 1: we said the stuff he's talking about. And I told
Speaker 1: him I understand all of that. So so so what
Speaker 1: why does he have a problem with identifying as a
Speaker 1: black man about politics? So so when we're talking about politics,
Speaker 1: I was saying, based upon how politics is used on
Speaker 1: us and based upon the cast name system that suckers
Speaker 1: came up with, like calling us African Americans and then
Speaker 1: grow black color all these years to change. So when
Speaker 1: we adopted for ourselves, that allowed then if they to
Speaker 1: enforce unjustice, let me take the flow, brothers, let me
Speaker 1: take the floor. He holdify yourself as the black man,
Speaker 1: that's the question, because as a national more and my
Speaker 1: skin is not black. Can I answer now? So therefore
Speaker 1: they're having this in his name. People don't us Okay, okay, yellow, black, whatever.
Speaker 1: People have names of their tribe. Where can I take
Speaker 1: the flowers? How do you identify yourself? Again? I said
Speaker 1: I'm a more and I say I'm a black man,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna tell you why. I'm gonna tell you why.
Speaker 1: I'm saying I'm a black man. And I'll tell you why, brother,
Speaker 1: because I use that term to identify with every black
Speaker 1: person on this planet. That's what makes us regardless of
Speaker 1: where you're born on this planet. Just like Marcolm said,
Speaker 1: if a chicken was born in the oven, don't mean
Speaker 1: there's a biscuit. The fact that we're born all over
Speaker 1: this planet, brother, we have to have something that we
Speaker 1: can connect with each other. Not nationality, not continent, but black.
Speaker 1: And let me tell you something. Back in the sixties,
Speaker 1: all right, it took a long time, and in all
Speaker 1: these words are political. Calling us a negro was a
Speaker 1: political word, but the word black ass political, and the
Speaker 1: white men worked hard to move us away from identifying
Speaker 1: as black and moves to African America because it's political.
Speaker 1: The thing is, the white man didn't give us, didn't
Speaker 1: want us calling ourselves black. The white man was happy
Speaker 1: us going around calling us the so called negro. That's
Speaker 1: what in the sixties Elijah Muhammad worked hard, diligently and
Speaker 1: long and sleepless nights. The movers away were identifying ourselves
Speaker 1: being called negro, he said, the so called negro. When
Speaker 1: he wrote the Message to the Black Man, it's called
Speaker 1: the Message to the Black Man. Why because God told
Speaker 1: him to identify with ourselves as being black men and
Speaker 1: not negros, and not more wars or not any other
Speaker 1: name that we identified ourselves with in this world. He
Speaker 1: wanted us to unite ourselves with seeing ourselves, so the
Speaker 1: white men didn't give us the word black. He never
Speaker 1: wanted to identify ourselves as being black. In fact, he
Speaker 1: worked hard to give us away when the movement came
Speaker 1: out in the sixties and seven. I'm Black and I'm proud.
Speaker 1: I'm Black and I'm proud all of that, you know,
Speaker 1: all the music, all the culture, and we were talking
Speaker 1: earlier about how music was. You know, it's different today,
Speaker 1: but back then it was very uplifting motivation and it
Speaker 1: was used in a way. James Brown made black and
Speaker 1: I'm I'm Black and I'm proud, popular. These are the
Speaker 1: things that and that that helped us to identify ourselves
Speaker 1: differently today. So why I love being called a black man,
Speaker 1: It's because brother is the only thing it doesn't mean
Speaker 1: by color, all right. Black is the root and essence
Speaker 1: of all life. Life on this planet didn't start, brother
Speaker 1: with on this planet. Life came from space. This planet
Speaker 1: grew over treas and trains of years and life was
Speaker 1: still here. Life was here before there was a son,
Speaker 1: before there was a moon. So light, triple triple darkness.
Speaker 1: What do you believe you believe God created the earth
Speaker 1: or that you believe the man revolved over revolution? Whether
Speaker 1: you have both? If evolution means to evolve to change,
Speaker 1: but then you also have creation, which is the power
Speaker 1: to bring it to existence. All right, So we're a
Speaker 1: combination of both. What you created, you got to evolve.
Speaker 1: We are. We came from space. We just life didn't
Speaker 1: start on the planet Earth. Life didn't start when we
Speaker 1: had a sun in the in the start. Life came
Speaker 1: from space. It comes out of triple darkness. It comes
Speaker 1: when you can form with a molecular water. Brother, six
Speaker 1: days and metatorical allegories is in fact you know this
Speaker 1: Earth is older than six thousand years. People older than
Speaker 1: six thousand years. I think that with all that getting,
Speaker 1: you gotta get understanding. You know, when we study, You know,
Speaker 1: we have to study to show ourselves approven. And what
Speaker 1: happened is a lot of things we're taught. It's fair,
Speaker 1: he tells brother, is not scientific. We gotta get back
Speaker 1: to the science and rooted things. If we want to
Speaker 1: rule this world. We got to think mathematically and scientifically,
Speaker 1: not emotionally. This whole conversation a lot had to do
Speaker 1: with emotion. Everything he was saying and what I was
Speaker 1: saying some of his emotion. But if we want to
Speaker 1: get to, you know, the heart of what makes sense,
Speaker 1: That's why I said, what do you want to be called?
Speaker 1: And why is that important? Because we was given a
Speaker 1: term called the black man in order to help us
Speaker 1: connect with each other because we're divided into tribes. And
Speaker 1: to what the white men did the Anglo in the
Speaker 1: Saxon in Britain, he united the tribe and then they
Speaker 1: conquered the world. So they went from tribal to national
Speaker 1: to global. We gotta think bigger than way we're thinking,
Speaker 1: and if we want to move forward, we can argue
Speaker 1: later on about certain name, but we need a term
Speaker 1: that's gonna unite us. She and I say, I'm not
Speaker 1: black because of the color of my skin. I'm black
Speaker 1: because I'm the original people of the planet Earth. I'm
Speaker 1: first my DNA, go back to the first life on
Speaker 1: the planet, and we have nothing to do with the
Speaker 1: color of my skin. That's why I said, but how
Speaker 1: hot it is hot? So this argument was primarily based
Speaker 1: on what as black men and we should call ourselves,
Speaker 1: whether we should be black, Afro American, Negro. So you
Speaker 1: prefer to be recognized as a black man, absolutely, unapologetically.
Speaker 1: I'm a black man, and that's why we persecuted in America.
Speaker 1: That's why we're killed and and oppressed because with black people,
Speaker 1: the original people not necessarily color of your skin, because
Speaker 1: they are oppressed. You brother, if you if you was
Speaker 1: a white man on this planet, they come up against
Speaker 1: this world. Brother, did go through all that, all that
Speaker 1: negativity about the description or the definition of black and
Speaker 1: uphold the standard that we all know that God created
Speaker 1: a black man. Black people the first people are planning Earth.
Speaker 1: All other races are nothing. But I just said that
Speaker 1: He created the man in the image of him. So
Speaker 1: God must be black, absolutely, brother. You know, if if
Speaker 1: you refer to God as an entity or life for him,
Speaker 1: all right, then you referring to him as being a
Speaker 1: black because all the descriptions of God in ancient times
Speaker 1: referred to him as black. In Buddha he was black.
Speaker 1: In ancient Egypt, he was black. You know, all of
Speaker 1: these cultures historically and anciently refer to God being black,
Speaker 1: and the black man referred to himself as God. We
Speaker 1: have gotten away from him when you talk about raw.
Speaker 1: We're debating on what we should call ourselves. Are we black?
Speaker 1: Are we need row? Are we indigenous? Are we are
Speaker 1: we Hebrew? Which? One hour? I always like to say,
Speaker 1: I'm probably a God regardless what you want to call me.
Speaker 1: Who wait, man, that was a debate, you know what,
Speaker 1: And that's gonna be my title for this debate here
Speaker 1: at the Bobby Shop Talks. I'm calling it I Am
Speaker 1: Black because this topic today was about identity and we
Speaker 1: got into a spirited debate and sometimes we cut each
Speaker 1: other off, but it was all in good taste. I
Speaker 1: hope you enjoy this debate at the Bobby Shop Talks.
Speaker 1: But I think the perfect title for this podcast episode
Speaker 1: is I am black. Hey, look, that's another side of malite.
Speaker 1: Sometimes you know, you don't see and today, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm very passionate. I have a lot of energy, and
Speaker 1: I have a strong belief in terms of identity, and
Speaker 1: I'm very comfortable with being called black. And we had
Speaker 1: a spirit of debate. He disagree with me, and he's
Speaker 1: entitled to have his you know, disagreement. So hey, we
Speaker 1: had a debate in the body shop. That's all it
Speaker 1: was about. After that, we embraced each other, hugged each other,
Speaker 1: and we still brothers. But hey, I gotta agree to disagree.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm very comfortable with being identified as a
Speaker 1: black man, you know, in the America, and I think
Speaker 1: that that's a word that's unifying and very important for
Speaker 1: us to see ourselves not based on some crown color,
Speaker 1: but based on the essence and root of life itself,
Speaker 1: as the mother and fathers of humanity. So that's my
Speaker 1: take on this. I hope you enjoyed it. You Oh You.

Speaker 1: always open seven now it's called the email is a
Speaker 1: real Malik Mohammed at gmail dot com. That's right, Real
Speaker 1: Malik Mohammed gmail dot com. So email me a question
Speaker 1: and I'll try to ask it on my podcast. Well,
Speaker 1: this question is Hi. My name is John Black. I
Speaker 1: have been listening to your podcast for the last three months.
Speaker 1: You have such a wide range of topics every week
Speaker 1: I can expect a unique and original topic. How do
Speaker 1: you choose your topics? That's an accellent question, and there's
Speaker 1: no one single way I can answer that, because it
Speaker 1: comes from the gut. Sometimes I just get inspiration by
Speaker 1: being at a place out with my family or at
Speaker 1: an event, or I get an idea from someone walking
Speaker 1: into the store. None of this is prescript I personally
Speaker 1: like the organic topics that just come just because of
Speaker 1: the moment. I find that more you know, original, and
Speaker 1: it just comes across as being you know, real and
Speaker 1: so um, there's like I said, there's no one way.
Speaker 1: I um, you know, look for ideas all the time
Speaker 1: and usually nothing happens. But when I'm not looking, they
Speaker 1: come and you know, like this last episode, this episode
Speaker 1: is about I am black? Well how did that happen?
Speaker 1: I got in at debate and winning at the Bobby
Speaker 1: Shop and he had a problem with my friend had
Speaker 1: a problem would have been down the fire with being black. Hey,
Speaker 1: it's further two a debate. Well, that's how it happens,
Speaker 1: you know. I just you know, if nothing is primarily
Speaker 1: pre pre planned. If I'm doing a book event at
Speaker 1: the store, I'm interviewing you on the spot. You know.
Speaker 1: That's how I got Spike Lee, Terry Crews, garcel Um,
Speaker 1: who else tabled the Brown, Kevin Fredericks Um and his
Speaker 1: wife and many others. It's all on the spot. Uh.
Speaker 1: But like I said, most of this is not scripted.
Speaker 1: I don't write out questions. Um, it's just original and
Speaker 1: it's real, and that's how I come up with my topics.
Speaker 1: And I hope you continue to listen and tell your
Speaker 1: friendly and friends to tune in to Malik's folk show
Speaker 1: bringing a World together with books, culture and community. Since
Speaker 1: I answered that question in a timely matter, let's move
Speaker 1: on to one more. My name is Sylvia Johnson. Your
Speaker 1: last episode on fasting was very interesting. I am not
Speaker 1: sure I agree with everything, but certainly something's made good
Speaker 1: sense and relatable. You mentioned eliminating meals. Well, can you
Speaker 1: explain more in depth about eliminating meals and how it
Speaker 1: affects your aging? This is really a subject matter for
Speaker 1: my last guests, Walter Malik de Gene, but he's not
Speaker 1: here answer, so I'm gonna do my best. Let Hey, Hey,
Speaker 1: the reason why eliminating meals help you in terms of
Speaker 1: health while eyes in the aging process is because all
Speaker 1: food that we eat has waste. Every time you eat something,
Speaker 1: your body has to eliminate something. Every time you eat anything,
Speaker 1: whether it's an apple, a banana, I mean those are
Speaker 1: natural and healthy, but yet you have to eliminate something
Speaker 1: out of your body, and that is waste, and that
Speaker 1: waste your body cannot use. Your body only wants nutrients
Speaker 1: so that it can do it. What it's supposed to
Speaker 1: do in terms of you know, repairing you and growing
Speaker 1: and so forth. But anything that's toxic, the body wants
Speaker 1: to eliminate. So when you're eating food, understand you also
Speaker 1: eating partison to the body. You cannot eat an apple
Speaker 1: without posing in the body and to have and waste,
Speaker 1: so that waste in your body is toxic to your
Speaker 1: body and it and it affects your body in a
Speaker 1: way that it causes aging. Now, my understanding is that
Speaker 1: the quickest way to age is to eat meat. Eating
Speaker 1: flat A lot of people all y'all you know we
Speaker 1: was born to eat meat. Well, it's a lot of
Speaker 1: scientists just disagree with you. Based upon our antm anonomy
Speaker 1: and the science of today and the technology of the
Speaker 1: day is selling in all arguments. And as a result,
Speaker 1: it has been scientifically proved that human beings are not
Speaker 1: animal eaters and that we can get protein based upon
Speaker 1: the way our intesters are set up through pants beings
Speaker 1: and and and natural things, not animals, but animals, and
Speaker 1: the waste in the toxicity in the blood, you know,
Speaker 1: because when you eat an animal and they kill it,
Speaker 1: you can you you digesting its emotions as well. It's
Speaker 1: in the blood. But anyway, apparently eating meat is the
Speaker 1: fastest way to cause your selves to age. Now, there's
Speaker 1: a lot of scientists out here in a lot of books. Hey,
Speaker 1: all you gotta do is just pick up one. But
Speaker 1: all I'm doing is just telling you that, Hey, everything
Speaker 1: that we eat has waste, and so when you eat less,
Speaker 1: then you have less cosicity going into what your body,
Speaker 1: so the cells are not as damaged and you're able
Speaker 1: to stress your seals and as a result, aging is
Speaker 1: slow dramatically by eating less. So that's how the best
Speaker 1: way to stress your seals is not just working out, running,
Speaker 1: lifting weight, but but it's what's starving it all right,
Speaker 1: because that's one of the number one urges that we have, hunger.
Speaker 1: So that's all I can say about that. Thank you
Speaker 1: for your question. Now, Hey, if you got a question,
