My name is Grandmama T ro Roma 0:00:27.920 --> 0:00:30.800 gal Mama T. How are you doing today? Doing good? 0:00:30.880 --> 0:00:34.160 How are you guess? And that means I'm geepop. Well, 0:00:34.640 --> 0:00:37.240 gee pop, that's it. That's our new names. Grandmama T 0:00:37.680 --> 0:00:42.440 and Jeepop were in the building in the Brazil. Then 0:00:42.520 --> 0:00:46.839 what's going on with you? Man's god? Um? I was 0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:49.839 gonna suggest that for today, since there's so much to 0:00:49.840 --> 0:00:53.040 be said before we bring our incredible UM guests. I'm 0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:56.080 really inspired by the guests that we are going to 0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:59.680 have on today that you should really spend some time 0:00:59.760 --> 0:01:03.560 just kind of talking about so much of the things 0:01:03.600 --> 0:01:07.160 that's been happening in the online. I don't even know 0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:09.840 if it's just the media. It's like at this point 0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:14.240 people are creating their own media UM, and so you know, 0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:17.560 I've just figured we could maybe do that and I 0:01:17.560 --> 0:01:20.679 would forego my thought of the day, although all of 0:01:20.680 --> 0:01:22.520 it is like it's not even the thought of the day, 0:01:22.520 --> 0:01:27.319 it's now thoughts of a month, and every day it 0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:30.880 seems like it's been one day for an entire month 0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:34.680 of stuff that has been, um, you know, just just 0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:38.560 very very troubling. And I guess I start off just 0:01:38.640 --> 0:01:43.800 by saying that while I am still very very much 0:01:43.880 --> 0:01:49.680 so concerned about um Kanye or yea, excuse me, I 0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:52.360 want to be respectful because he did mention in an 0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:55.720 interview that I saw that he changed his name and 0:01:55.840 --> 0:01:58.480 he would appreciate if people call him his name, and 0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:01.760 I think that's right. So even though you know, it's 0:02:01.800 --> 0:02:04.120 like Puffs changed his name a million times and I 0:02:04.200 --> 0:02:07.160 still call him Puff and he you know, that's that's it. 0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:10.040 So it's just, you know, sometimes you get attached to 0:02:10.120 --> 0:02:14.440 something but want to be respectful, and so yeah, he 0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:17.000 you know, I am very still I'm still very much 0:02:17.040 --> 0:02:21.600 so concerned about his mental wealth, um, because I feel 0:02:21.680 --> 0:02:26.920 like whatever we want to say about the intentionality or 0:02:27.000 --> 0:02:29.440 not and how he may or may not be be 0:02:29.440 --> 0:02:33.160 being used or how much he may know about what 0:02:33.200 --> 0:02:37.080 he's doing and and all of that, still, to me, 0:02:37.639 --> 0:02:44.920 there is a sickness about anyone who chooses to um 0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:49.280 be sort of anti yourself, right because but for the 0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:53.480 fact that Kanye is or Yea is who he is, 0:02:55.000 --> 0:02:57.280 if he was in the street and there was no 0:02:57.360 --> 0:03:02.760 security and he was thought to have been carrying a 0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:07.640 counterfeit bill or some other type of situation we've seen, 0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:09.440 you know, we have a list. We could go on 0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:12.560 and on and on and on with the list of 0:03:13.240 --> 0:03:16.920 incidents that can take place and if approached by the 0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:20.560 wrong officer at the right time, you can lose your life. 0:03:20.960 --> 0:03:24.200 That's a fact. So it's this is not something that 0:03:24.240 --> 0:03:28.280 we just are you know, we're sort of dreaming up 0:03:28.480 --> 0:03:31.600 or we're making it up, or we're dramatizing it. We 0:03:31.800 --> 0:03:34.520 have watched this happen too many times to too many 0:03:34.600 --> 0:03:38.000 of our people. And for him, who I know from 0:03:38.120 --> 0:03:42.440 Chicago with a mother who had activism even in her 0:03:42.480 --> 0:03:46.800 blood and understanding where where Yea comes from, I know 0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:51.040 that he is very much so aware of the challenge 0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:55.280 that we as people, as black people and especially black men, 0:03:55.920 --> 0:04:00.240 that they face, that you all face in society. And 0:04:00.280 --> 0:04:03.440 I think it's something wrong with the person who is, 0:04:03.520 --> 0:04:07.880 for whatever reason, willing to try to change what we saw. 0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:11.440 There is this question of you know that he has 0:04:11.480 --> 0:04:14.000 been posing and I'm assuming and I assume I don't know, 0:04:14.040 --> 0:04:18.120 because I would never even give Candice Owns documentary two 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:22.039 seconds of my life. But it seems that at some 0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:24.880 point in in this documentary they're trying to make the 0:04:24.920 --> 0:04:29.920 case that the fenon al that was in George Floyd's 0:04:29.920 --> 0:04:33.720 system may have been or is what killed him instead 0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:37.480 of the incident that took place. And I saw someone 0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:41.039 in my comments section make a very very important point 0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:46.480 because you asked, well, who hit him with the fencon al, 0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:50.200 all of that, all those things, who hit him with 0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:53.160 the fencing al, whether or not he took it himself. 0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:55.359 Let me just let me, let me let me because 0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:57.719 I want to be very clear. He did not ask, 0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:05.240 he said, and Coot hit him with the fitting okay, son, 0:05:05.960 --> 0:05:11.280 because they said, oh you're misting, he said, then they 0:05:11.360 --> 0:05:14.720 hit him with the fantonel okay. So what I was 0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:18.000 gonna say is and find please correct me, because I 0:05:18.080 --> 0:05:21.359 certainly don't want to misquote him or anybody else. But 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:26.039 all of that is theory, All of that is opinion, 0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:30.039 All of that is possibility. All of that is what 0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:33.599 we know, though is we watched a man with his 0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:38.840 knee in his neck compressing his body. And in fact, 0:05:39.240 --> 0:05:44.400 it was not just Derek Schauvin who was compressing George 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:49.120 Floyd's body. At some point the other two officers were 0:05:49.160 --> 0:05:52.600 on the other end of his body compressing him as well. 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:56.120 We know it, We saw it, and ain't no nothing 0:05:56.160 --> 0:05:59.839 you could tell. There's no documentary that you know has 0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:05.920 whatever perspective it wants to show. There's no commentary that 0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:10.680 can change what I watched too many times over and 0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:14.479 over and over again and moreover. None of the people 0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:18.360 who are speaking now were present. But you know who 0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:21.720 was present, the people who filmed, the person who filed it, 0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:26.040 and other individuals who were present on the scene. And 0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:30.640 they also saw him die because someone kneeled in his 0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:34.039 neck for over nine minutes. That we know to be true. 0:06:34.520 --> 0:06:36.160 And I guess the only thing I'll say, and I 0:06:36.200 --> 0:06:38.360 will take it to you to to you know, give 0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:44.919 you a perspective. I understand the need and the desire 0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:51.000 to try to defend someone that you love and that 0:06:51.120 --> 0:06:55.720 you are close to or feel close to, even when 0:06:56.200 --> 0:06:58.880 you know that some of the things that that person 0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:02.799 is doing wrong. Right, we all we all we talked 0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:05.880 about last week on the show. There is a level 0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:10.520 of hypocrisy that exists in humans because it is human 0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:16.360 nature to want to protect or to stand by certain 0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:20.679 things and people, either because it's familiar to you or 0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:24.640 because you know you love someone or something in your 0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:27.560 culture or whatever. But it doesn't make it right. The 0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:32.280 problem with Yea and people who are attempting people who 0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.400 have been or at some point we're well respected in 0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:39.280 my eyes, um, but these last few weeks has diminished 0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:42.680 that greatly for me as it relates to some people 0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:46.600 that I really, really really held in high regard, and 0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:50.240 what I think is very It's not just troubling, it's 0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:55.400 actually disgusting that they seem to be able to speak 0:07:55.480 --> 0:07:59.840 to and about this person and say such great things 0:08:00.440 --> 0:08:07.239 and not even mentioned, not even mentioned, the disrespect, disregard 0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:12.960 and the demeaning of George Floyd and what that man suffered. 0:08:13.240 --> 0:08:16.520 And many of some of the same individuals that my 0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:20.720 respect for has diminished are the same people that their 0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:25.320 platforms have grown as a result of what took place 0:08:25.360 --> 0:08:29.520 with George Floyd and how this movement began to shape 0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:34.280 around new ideas, new directions and passed for how we 0:08:34.440 --> 0:08:40.120 overcome in an oppressive and racist system. So to me, 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:44.880 to watch folks use this as eiven either a moment 0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:50.320 to just support someone that they feel in you know, 0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:53.040 endearing or endeared or I don't know if that's the 0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:55.920 right word, but they feel close to for whatever reason, 0:08:56.679 --> 0:09:01.520 and or just because they want click and not to 0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:06.720 even mention the wrongdoing, and and to not to even 0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:11.840 understand things how it all connects, because we did not 0:09:12.000 --> 0:09:16.760 just start here. We started at make America Great Again, 0:09:17.720 --> 0:09:20.319 first of all, which in then in and of itself, 0:09:20.960 --> 0:09:25.040 was a statement that meant America for white people and 0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:28.480 not for black, brown and brown and others. That's what 0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:31.960 make America Great Again was. It was to return to 0:09:32.040 --> 0:09:37.120 a time when white men were in complete power and control. 0:09:37.200 --> 0:09:41.000 And he supported that. We didn't really say much. It 0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:45.240 was whatever, it was whatever. We moved on through many 0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:50.079 other instances. Two White Lives Matter coming up now, and 0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:55.120 that was a direct assault, a violent assault against our movement. 0:09:55.520 --> 0:09:59.000 And now we come to you being one of those 0:09:59.280 --> 0:10:06.600 to be and uh anti black apologist for white people 0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:09.520 who want to say that what happened to George Floyd 0:10:09.559 --> 0:10:12.600 didn't happen in the name of you trying to diminish 0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:16.840 the value of a movement that was that changed the world. 0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:21.480 So for me, I don't feel sorry for Yea at all. 0:10:22.880 --> 0:10:26.040 I feel concerned about his health, but I do not 0:10:26.160 --> 0:10:29.160 feel sorry for him that he is being dragged through 0:10:29.160 --> 0:10:32.559 the mud because the way in which he is approaching 0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:35.840 all of it, everything with the good things that he says, 0:10:36.120 --> 0:10:38.920 the things that are necessary to be talked about, as 0:10:38.960 --> 0:10:44.320 well as the unfortunate, terrible, disgusting things that he said, 0:10:44.559 --> 0:10:48.280 he put himself in this situation. He did this, not 0:10:48.480 --> 0:10:52.840 the world. He did it. Mm hmm. I just think 0:10:52.880 --> 0:10:56.880 for me, you know, just watching and just paying attention 0:10:56.880 --> 0:11:00.840 and just understanding the dynamics, right, and to standing how 0:11:00.920 --> 0:11:05.719 black men are the most targeted people in America. We're 0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:07.720 not the most. I think black women are more hated, 0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:10.800 but I think black men are more targeted, right, And 0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:13.959 and it's hard to find spaces for black men, right. 0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:15.839 It's hard for us to find people that we can 0:11:15.880 --> 0:11:21.440 actually aspire to be, you know, and we don't have 0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:25.400 many of certain kinds of leaders who are in the 0:11:25.480 --> 0:11:28.679 line life. We don't have people who actually aren't afraid 0:11:28.920 --> 0:11:33.559 to say certain things, right. So sometimes the need to 0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:38.000 feel a whole. To feel present, to feel valued, makes 0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:43.959 you attached to things that aren't always um profitable, that 0:11:44.120 --> 0:11:48.040 aren't always beneficial to you, people who don't always have 0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:50.520 your best interests at heart, right, And I think this 0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:54.280 is what happened, right, And I think what's what we're 0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:57.760 seeing right now is black and it is mainly black 0:11:57.800 --> 0:12:03.040 men's need to feel heard, need to feel represented, need 0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:10.280 to feel powerful. And yea, even though it's misguided, even 0:12:10.320 --> 0:12:16.240 though he utilizes the power that he has wrong, even 0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:20.520 though he utilizes his blackness only when it's beneficial to him, 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:23.000 he represents that to some people. You know, we live 0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:26.040 in a capitalist society, and when you have a level 0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:29.360 of money, in the level of notoriety and level of fame, 0:12:29.520 --> 0:12:34.360 people seem to deify you, right, They succeed you at 0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:36.959 some level with deity. And this is what happened. We 0:12:37.040 --> 0:12:42.000 are uh you said, they seem to see you as 0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:46.000 a way a deity. What is that? I never a deity? 0:12:46.160 --> 0:12:53.040 Is a god? Wow, So they start to see you 0:12:53.120 --> 0:12:56.920 in this light, and this is what's happening. And when 0:12:57.000 --> 0:13:00.520 you couple with we live in a capitalistic society, and 0:13:00.559 --> 0:13:03.480 you cover that with him being able to mass to 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:06.880 state the amount of wealth. People will overlook all the 0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:10.800 bullshit that he does because he has wealth and he 0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:14.280 seems to have a voice that he doesn't care. So 0:13:14.320 --> 0:13:16.160 when you look at you look at those things, and 0:13:16.200 --> 0:13:18.800 you look at black men's position in society, and you 0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:21.440 see why they want to champion it. I understand it. 0:13:22.000 --> 0:13:24.800 But it's dangerous in this wrong because this is not 0:13:24.880 --> 0:13:27.839 the person to follow. This is not a strategic leader. 0:13:28.000 --> 0:13:34.760 This is a person who is emotionally destitute. Emotional right, 0:13:35.160 --> 0:13:39.199 we have a person who has the emotional intelligence of 0:13:39.240 --> 0:13:42.480 a five year old. Every time something doesn't go his way, 0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:45.800 every time he doesn't like it. We didn't choose his wife, 0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:48.840 right we we we didn't sign the business deals that 0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:51.880 he did, and every time those things right when we 0:13:51.960 --> 0:13:54.520 told him when people say, you know what, I don't 0:13:54.559 --> 0:13:56.480 know why you would married the kardash they don't really 0:13:56.520 --> 0:13:58.679 have a good track record, especially with black men. I 0:13:58.720 --> 0:14:01.000 don't think if most people say that it didn't make sense. 0:14:01.360 --> 0:14:04.439 He dis is himself from friends and everybody because they 0:14:04.480 --> 0:14:09.520 didn't agree with his relationship.

Now, when the relationship where you and Kim 0:15:14.760 --> 0:15:17.800 doesn't go right. When the business deal that we told 0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:20.040 you you probably should when Swaye told you probably shouldn't 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:23.720 doesn't go right. You are black and these are white 0:15:23.720 --> 0:15:25.840 people doing this to you, or these are these people 0:15:26.240 --> 0:15:28.680 did everybody's doing some to you, and you use your 0:15:28.680 --> 0:15:31.560 black carded us as black people are supposed to come 0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:33.960 with the kate and say, nah, you're black. We don't 0:15:34.000 --> 0:15:36.240 get how much you've diminished our coach, how much you 0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:39.560 disrespected us, how much you said that as harm. That's 0:15:39.640 --> 0:15:41.640 put us in harm's way. You come here with a 0:15:41.680 --> 0:15:44.960 White Lives Matter T shirt where we was in fuck Louisville, 0:15:45.040 --> 0:15:47.880 Kentucky with white people have White Lives Matter hats and 0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:50.480 shirts and surrounded us and was about to kill us 0:15:50.520 --> 0:15:53.560 in the name of white Lives Matter, and you disrespected 0:15:53.600 --> 0:15:56.880 that reality for us. And now because your business and 0:15:56.920 --> 0:16:00.960 your personal situations don't go right, you act black people 0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:04.040 like us, You diminish with Black Lives Matter. The movement 0:16:04.080 --> 0:16:07.040 represents you. You sit on here and you lie, and 0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:10.920 you you take um white supremacists talking points from a 0:16:10.960 --> 0:16:15.359 fake fucking documentary full of the narratives that was already debunked, 0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:19.200 and you put that on on our platforms, on cultural 0:16:19.240 --> 0:16:22.040 platforms that represent black people in the culture, and you 0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:25.880 and you spread that information, which causes other people who 0:16:25.920 --> 0:16:28.920 believe you would follow you to spread the misinformation. And 0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:31.400 now we gotta fight to show that a man who 0:16:31.480 --> 0:16:34.760 was murdered and killed in cold blood on television in 0:16:34.800 --> 0:16:37.320 front of us that we've seen for for damn New 0:16:37.480 --> 0:16:39.960 year straight, we had to fight to say no, that 0:16:40.000 --> 0:16:42.520 he did kill him. And you did that to us, 0:16:42.560 --> 0:16:44.920 and we and we are wrong for saying that we're 0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:47.920 not suppoint you and your personal tirades. You come with 0:16:48.000 --> 0:16:49.840 tirades and you talk about the industry, and you talked 0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:52.160 about this and that, and I was controlling this and that, 0:16:52.320 --> 0:16:54.800 and you got a billion dollars and you haven't built 0:16:54.800 --> 0:16:58.440 one institution, you haven't done anything to combat that. But 0:16:58.480 --> 0:17:01.920 you're yelling screen on platform and we're supposed to and 0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:03.760 not supposed to be I would leader. We're supposed to 0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:07.480 follow somebody with no strategy, with nothing, and you think 0:17:07.520 --> 0:17:13.200 that makes sense. And thing is that people closing, people 0:17:13.760 --> 0:17:17.960 close him that know him well are like, man, there's 0:17:18.040 --> 0:17:21.600 no strategy, there's no strategy, there's no you don't. The 0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:24.199 reason why it's no strategy because this is this has 0:17:24.240 --> 0:17:27.640 happened before. You're doing the same ship that everybody else 0:17:27.680 --> 0:17:29.640 has done and it didn't work for them. You don't 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:33.840 have no strategy. You have not created anything you said. 0:17:34.080 --> 0:17:36.320 You haven't created anything that a black voice can be 0:17:36.359 --> 0:17:38.679 free to speak with with have youthful. You don't have 0:17:38.800 --> 0:17:41.480 the record label that does it. You have no record company, 0:17:41.680 --> 0:17:43.639 you don't you don't have a platform that does it. 0:17:43.960 --> 0:17:46.639 You don't have a job where you only employed black people. 0:17:46.680 --> 0:17:50.080 You don't have nothing that's going to free the free 0:17:50.119 --> 0:17:52.040 to black voice to be what you say it should be. 0:17:52.160 --> 0:17:56.000 And you think it's a problem, I'm confused. No, I 0:17:56.000 --> 0:17:58.399 mean and I and I and I think and you 0:17:58.480 --> 0:18:01.080 got a billion dollars. It's not like you mean, you know, 0:18:01.160 --> 0:18:04.960 he doesn't have a billion dollars. You got a billion dollars, 0:18:04.960 --> 0:18:07.000 and you have access to be able to create that. 0:18:07.200 --> 0:18:12.679 Then have a billion dollars. In the last tirade I 0:18:12.720 --> 0:18:16.080 heard him on, he said he has eleven billion dollars. 0:18:16.119 --> 0:18:21.120 That's what he said, So let's just be clear. He also, Okay, 0:18:21.119 --> 0:18:25.960 this man, to your point, if you're saying that the 0:18:26.080 --> 0:18:31.400 Jews are controlling the media and the Jews have all 0:18:31.480 --> 0:18:35.360 this is his this is his position.

I wouldn't invest 0:21:08.520 --> 0:21:11.240 in this because this is a problem. This is a problem, 0:21:11.280 --> 0:21:12.800 so we need to figure out how we change that. 0:21:13.040 --> 0:21:19.159 What is happening here is we are being weaponized to 0:21:19.359 --> 0:21:23.800 handle your personal business, your family custody battle, which, by 0:21:23.800 --> 0:21:27.280 the way, to all the brothers that are out there 0:21:27.359 --> 0:21:34.760 who are such strong masculine men who support you know yea, 0:21:35.000 --> 0:21:37.720 because he's speaking and he's a freethinker and all this 0:21:37.840 --> 0:21:41.000 and that quick question, do y'all know that the man 0:21:41.160 --> 0:21:43.800 was putting the text messages between him and his wife 0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:47.480 on the internet.

It's not okay. 0:22:09.800 --> 0:22:14.120 And to me back to your point, you're weaponizing us 0:22:14.520 --> 0:22:19.479 for your business deals, for your family issues, all things 0:22:19.720 --> 0:22:21.919 that we have nothing to do with. But if you 0:22:22.080 --> 0:22:24.639 came to the community and said, listen, I am here, 0:22:24.960 --> 0:22:28.120 I'm a supporter, I'm a resource. I'm in the trenches 0:22:28.200 --> 0:22:30.199 doing the best that I can and now I'm in 0:22:30.320 --> 0:22:33.760 trouble and I need support. I'm sure people would get 0:22:33.800 --> 0:22:38.920 behind you, but violating, disrespecting and giving us your ask 0:22:38.960 --> 0:22:41.400 the kids, why would I Why would I get involved 0:22:41.400 --> 0:22:44.480 in that? Why would I want to be involved in 0:22:44.640 --> 0:22:48.919 something with someone who is also standing next to and 0:22:49.040 --> 0:22:55.560 working with people who intentionally intentionally try and and and 0:22:55.600 --> 0:22:59.280 they don't just try. They literally ripped at the fabric 0:22:59.400 --> 0:23:02.080 of every thing we say we stand and fight for 0:23:02.160 --> 0:23:05.960 every single day. Why would we want to stand with that? 0:23:06.520 --> 0:23:10.280 I'm just trying to I literally I want to know 0:23:11.160 --> 0:23:16.520 why I really do. There's no reason. There's there's no 0:23:16.640 --> 0:23:20.040 justification for it, man, you know, and it's it's really 0:23:20.320 --> 0:23:23.119 like I really would say to myself, like it's just 0:23:23.200 --> 0:23:26.680 no more common sense like they have now we have 0:23:27.400 --> 0:23:32.600 hundreds of black people who have respective voices posted about 0:23:32.600 --> 0:23:36.800 a documentary from a once one side from from the 0:23:36.920 --> 0:23:40.080 defense attorney like this is the dumbest ship, Like it 0:23:40.240 --> 0:23:43.120 is the dumbest ship in the world. Like right, it's 0:23:43.160 --> 0:23:46.439 like it's like you coming, like you just like if 0:23:46.520 --> 0:23:48.840 if that's what it took to when the case, we 0:23:48.840 --> 0:23:51.440 wouldn't have no case. If if the defense just came 0:23:51.480 --> 0:23:53.600 and said, look they said we killed them, Look we 0:23:53.680 --> 0:23:55.960 got our evidence, and that the jury just heard that, 0:23:57.200 --> 0:23:59.600 everybody would be like, oh, look you see that. They 0:23:59.600 --> 0:24:03.359 showed this. They showed this. Where is the other side? 0:24:03.880 --> 0:24:06.760 But that's so I mean, But this is what I'm 0:24:06.760 --> 0:24:08.879 trying to say, is I want to understand that the 0:24:08.920 --> 0:24:11.320 common sense of the people that that I that I 0:24:11.440 --> 0:24:14.159 want to believe that I actually want to believe a 0:24:14.240 --> 0:24:16.520 good people that want the best for us. Like I 0:24:16.560 --> 0:24:19.520 want to understand the mind state of an individual who 0:24:19.560 --> 0:24:22.000 I think is a stand up individual. I think it's 0:24:22.040 --> 0:24:25.919 strong that really wants the best for black people. What 0:24:26.119 --> 0:24:29.320 is the mindset that you have when you take the 0:24:29.920 --> 0:24:33.760 talking points, the visuals of the oppressor, the person who 0:24:33.880 --> 0:24:36.760 you know is that everything to take us. Then when 0:24:36.800 --> 0:24:41.000 you take those talking points and you present them, you 0:24:41.119 --> 0:24:44.520 present them because you have a position of power, people 0:24:44.520 --> 0:24:48.200
