What's going on, my son, Lennon, I'm. 0:00:17.160 --> 0:00:20.200 Blessed black and Holly favored. Tamika, Ma, how you doing today? 0:00:20.640 --> 0:00:23.800 I'm doing okay. I'm a part of the Black women 0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:26.800 who are resting. I'm not really restling because I've been 0:00:26.800 --> 0:00:30.520 working and busy and doing and going and planning and being. 0:00:30.360 --> 0:00:31.240 Involved in stuff. 0:00:31.280 --> 0:00:36.640 But I have not been forcing myself to think about 0:00:37.040 --> 0:00:41.040 what's next and a rally, a march, a thing, a thing. 0:00:41.120 --> 0:00:43.559 I just haven't. I just am not forcing myself to 0:00:43.600 --> 0:00:46.040 do that right now. I am a part of the 0:00:46.159 --> 0:00:50.000 ninety two percent. I believe that Black women have the 0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:55.720 instincts that God only himself could have placed in us 0:00:55.720 --> 0:00:57.080 to be able to be the. 0:00:59.200 --> 0:01:02.880 Birth ers of this nation. 0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:07.600 And I believe that our instinct in what we have 0:01:07.920 --> 0:01:16.240 in us is something that other people, you know, benefit from. 0:01:16.480 --> 0:01:19.600 And so since I'm in a ninety two percent, while 0:01:19.640 --> 0:01:21.880 I feel sad about a lot of things that's happening, 0:01:22.160 --> 0:01:23.520 I really feel proud. 0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:26.000 I feel I'm in good company. 0:01:26.520 --> 0:01:30.959 I feel like I don't have to put a cape 0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:34.200 on and immediately return to the battlefield. 0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:36.640 It's the holiday season, and. 0:01:36.640 --> 0:01:41.119 I feel like we as black women, deserve an opportunity 0:01:41.319 --> 0:01:47.720 to sit, exhale, breathe, taking one another's love and affection, 0:01:48.320 --> 0:01:50.880 and just not have to go kill myself stressed out 0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:51.400 of our work. 0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:54.280 As you should enjoy yourself, you know, like you said 0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:58.080 you part of in ninety two percent. I think unfortunately 0:01:58.080 --> 0:01:59.800 for me, I just feel like there's a lot of 0:01:59.840 --> 0:02:01.160 things things that black men are doing. 0:02:01.160 --> 0:02:04.360 So I've been I've been just really organizing in my mind. 0:02:04.400 --> 0:02:07.120 I han't physically went out and did a lot of things, 0:02:07.120 --> 0:02:11.079 but I've been really just strategizing and organizing and pretty 0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:14.400 much like I want to start, like pretty much right 0:02:14.440 --> 0:02:17.760 after the holidays, just really implementing a lot of things 0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:21.280 that I think are needed and necessary in this moment 0:02:21.280 --> 0:02:24.800 for black men, especially black men, young black men, just 0:02:25.120 --> 0:02:31.560 you know, the would I say, the the tide of 0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:34.880 the world, just the energy of the world, just the feeling, 0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:37.400 and I just feel like it's very much a time 0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:41.399 to start strategizing and organizing young black men. 0:02:42.040 --> 0:02:44.120 Yeah, I mean the time has always been and I've 0:02:44.160 --> 0:02:48.800 said to you many times that you know, as a woman, 0:02:49.919 --> 0:02:54.840 I know that we are we are blessed, very blessed 0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:59.520 to have the connections and the relationships among one another. 0:02:59.680 --> 0:03:00.680 You know that. 0:03:01.360 --> 0:03:05.200 Not to say that men and black men particularly don't 0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:09.519 have relationships, but there's just something different about the ways 0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:12.440 in which black women show up from one another. And 0:03:12.800 --> 0:03:16.799 I think something. I think a part of our enslavement 0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:22.720 and what has happened to us fostered certain things. So 0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:29.960 you know, men African men right who were being forced 0:03:29.960 --> 0:03:37.320 into enslavement and then of course going through chattel slavery. Certainly, 0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:43.000 the idea that you are now you know, responsible for 0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:47.000 your community and unable to protect your community at the 0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:50.640 same time has to be something that has created a 0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:53.240 psychological backlash. 0:03:53.640 --> 0:03:57.760 I think that backlash. 0:03:57.880 --> 0:04:02.880 A part of the protection has been, you know, trying 0:04:02.920 --> 0:04:09.000 to maintain position and and and feeling of power and 0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:12.800 a feeling of you know, being able to protect because 0:04:13.280 --> 0:04:17.239 that has been stripped in so many ways from you all, 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:21.680 in so many ways, and it continues beyond enslavement, beyond 0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:25.960 all that that we went through. Then even now, you 0:04:26.080 --> 0:04:29.520 still see that, and I know that it is important. 0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:32.600 I think anyone whose lineage. 0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:38.040 Includes enslavement, needs, a certain level of therapy, a certain 0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:42.479 level of of of a community of coming together to 0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:47.000 understand a lot of how we're still responding to life based. 0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:49.320 Upon you know, what we have been through. 0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:53.240 You even in your song where you're talking about the 0:04:53.279 --> 0:04:57.960 Willie Lynch letter, you acknowledge that people say the letter may. 0:04:57.839 --> 0:05:00.440 Not be real, but the effects of what what is. 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:05.000 In that letter, it's significant. It's significant, and I see 0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:07.880 it every day. I see it in young black men 0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:10.520 that I deal with, And I think that the most 0:05:10.560 --> 0:05:14.160 important thing we can be doing for the next four years, 0:05:14.480 --> 0:05:19.160 while being outside and protesting and bringing awareness and all 0:05:19.160 --> 0:05:22.920 of that, is going to be incredibly important. I still 0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:27.599 believe that one of the fundamental things that we have 0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:31.120 to engage in is community building that is not public 0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:33.720 for the world to see, right, Like, that's got to 0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:34.479 be something that we do. 0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:36.440 So I support you one hundred percent. 0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:38.240 Yes, it's definitely time. 0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:41.640 So that's what I've been, you know, just focusing on 0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:44.480 and trying to get into, you know, and just trying 0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:47.640 to stay abreast of what's going on, trying to take 0:05:47.680 --> 0:05:50.440 it light, you know, because everything has been so heavy 0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:53.560 and dark, and you know, so trying to have light conversations, 0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:58.080 enjoy life, you know, listen to music, watch the internet. 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:01.320 It's a couple of things that I've been focusing on 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:03.320 that really has been bringing me joy. 0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:06.720 Like I actually like casanat right. I've been watching him. 0:06:06.720 --> 0:06:09.280 He's a young kid and he just enjoys life and 0:06:09.279 --> 0:06:12.440 a lot of people go. He has all these stars 0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:14.960 on his live stream and he's been doing like I 0:06:15.000 --> 0:06:17.160 think he's doing like a thirty day live stream. 0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:20.240 So he's the other day he had Snoop Dogg on there. 0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:23.800 You know, he had Chris Brown on there, and everybody 0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:26.839 is just enjoying hisself, like as a young kids, the 0:06:26.960 --> 0:06:29.279 young in the twenties. They having fun, They talking about 0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:32.040 good things and and I love that, like you know, 0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:33.320 so that why he was. 0:06:33.320 --> 0:06:35.760 On the shower in the shower the other day, because he's. 0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:38.280 Straight. 0:06:38.320 --> 0:06:41.680 They for thirty days straight, everything he does is going 0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:44.040 to be on live stream, so hiss in the shower, 0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:46.560 everything like all his So you can go and you 0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:48.640 can click on his live stream right now and he's 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:52.000 on the live stream as we speak doing whatever. So 0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:55.320 you know, I've really been enjoying that just watching him 0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:58.920 be and he's and he's he's enjoying life. 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:01.840 You know what I'm saying. It's like I wouldn't do it. 0:07:01.839 --> 0:07:03.960 It reminds me of like The Truman Show, kind of 0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:06.200 if you ever seen the movie The Truman Show with 0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:09.080 Jim Carrey, Like his thing reminds me of the Truman Show, 0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:11.640 but his real life. It's actually his real life and 0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:15.360 the Truman Show, Truman was the only person that didn't 0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:18.360 know that he was on TV. They raised him from 0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:21.040 a little kid inside the TV. 0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:23.720 I think I remember that built. 0:07:23.440 --> 0:07:26.560 The whole life around him. Yeah, they built the whole. 0:07:26.320 --> 0:07:31.640 I'm not as old as you. 0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:31.880 But they built his whole life inside this TV. 0:07:32.320 --> 0:07:35.840 So but when I'm watching this, it's very entertaining, and 0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:37.640 but there was one thing in it that kind of 0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:42.119 that made me that resonated with me because you watched 0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:43.000 him in all this moments. 0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:46.320 So he's in the store and this is just probably today. 0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:49.480 He's in the store, he's buying shoes and it's about 0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:52.280 one hundred pairs of sneakers on the counter. So he 0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:54.240 walks by and he's looking. He's like, well, who put 0:07:54.720 --> 0:07:56.240 all of this stuff? Like, I ain't put all this 0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:59.520 stuff in. So the lady's like, well, people just putting 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:02.080 stuff up. So he's with his friends or whatever, so 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:05.480 he's like, yo, just ask, he said, I don't mind 0:08:05.600 --> 0:08:08.360 paying for it, but just ask. Like he ain't saying 0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:09.280 it till he's just saying it to. 0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:11.400 The chat as they listening. Just ask. 0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:13.120 He said, I would never do nothing like that. I 0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:16.880 just wouldn't go. I would ask it. And it resonates 0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:19.920 because when you get to a certain level, or just 0:08:20.280 --> 0:08:22.000 when people think you at a certain level, there's a 0:08:22.080 --> 0:08:25.440 level of entitlement, right think, yo, yo, you got it, Yo, 0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:27.160 you should do it. And it's not that I shouldn't 0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:29.080 do it or I wouldn't do it, but I wanted 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:31.760 to feel like you don't you you're not taking advantage 0:08:31.760 --> 0:08:31.920 of me. 0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:33.439 And he said, he said, these little things, this is 0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:35.680 how people go broke and be little stuff like that. 0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:37.720 And it shows that he's a sharp young man. 0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:39.880 You know what I'm saying. It's like this how people 0:08:39.880 --> 0:08:42.080 go broke and be little things like this, and you 0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:44.160 ain't saying nothing about it. Next thing, you know, there's 0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:47.199 one hundred thousand going. People just start taking for granted 0:08:47.400 --> 0:08:49.160 that they don't have to ask you for things, and 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:52.119 they just could take things from me, and it just 0:08:51.880 --> 0:08:54.960 it and it's the mind state. We live in an 0:08:55.200 --> 0:08:58.560 entitlement era, like people feel entitled to things, like I 0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:01.480 have conversations with people and I see so many different things. 0:09:01.520 --> 0:09:05.400 People don't even say thank you no more like you know, family, friends, whatever. 0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:08.640 You do things for people, and it's not that you 0:09:09.200 --> 0:09:11.640 want them to feel like they debt, but you just 0:09:11.679 --> 0:09:13.840 want somebody to say thank you, because that's what you 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:15.960 would do. I would do say thank you about that 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:17.600 you did something for me. I want you to feel 0:09:17.760 --> 0:09:19.920 like I acknowledge and I understand that you don't have 0:09:20.000 --> 0:09:22.000 to do something for me, you know, and we're just 0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:26.240 in such a time. So it was it resonated with 0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:28.520 me because I see it happen. I've experienced it, I've 0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:31.360 gone through it a lot. But it resonated to see 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:33.840 a young boy just understanding that he's in his twenties 0:09:33.880 --> 0:09:37.360 and he understood, like just ask me. He just like, well, 0:09:37.400 --> 0:09:38.880 we got it. We just gonna do this because he 0:09:38.960 --> 0:09:42.960 understands paying attention. He's a student of life. He sees 0:09:43.000 --> 0:09:46.040 with how people have failed, to see how people have won. 0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:48.360 You know, the fact that he brings a lot of 0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:50.880 different artists and people who have made it on his show, 0:09:51.160 --> 0:09:54.160 they've probably given him advice and he's taking it. So yeah, 0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:57.120 it just it just resonated with me because so much 0:09:57.240 --> 0:10:02.000 negativity on the internet. There's so many people just pumping crap. 0:10:02.440 --> 0:10:05.160 Just to see some young boy having fun and who's 0:10:05.200 --> 0:10:08.800 in tune. It's smart and actually understands life. 0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:09.160 You know. 0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:11.480 It's just it's a breath of fresh air, you know what. 0:10:11.559 --> 0:10:14.960 I like Constantat. I met his sister and his mother, 0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:17.840 and he comes from good stock. He comes from a 0:10:17.880 --> 0:10:21.240 good family, at least from what I saw them. They 0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:25.200 look beautiful people. His sister is very funny and very kind. 0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:28.360 His mother was really kind, and I, you know, I 0:10:28.400 --> 0:10:31.319 think he's a good kid. I do think that when 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:34.240 you put so much of your personal business in the world, 0:10:34.840 --> 0:10:36.839 people will think that they can take advantage of you 0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:40.400 because they know too much about what you have. And 0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:44.160 that's just the nature of human beings. And sometimes people 0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:46.120 don't even know how to ask because they haven't been 0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:50.160 They no home training, home trained. It goes very much 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:53.600 to what we were talking about originally, this idea that 0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:56.520 you know, we all and this is not a black 0:10:56.559 --> 0:10:59.720 man or whatever thing. This is all people home training 0:10:59.800 --> 0:11:02.680 is very important. When I was raised, you couldn't ask 0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:05.280 nobody for a thing. If I came home with something 0:11:05.320 --> 0:11:09.120 that somebody gave me, my parents would lose it. You're 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:11.880 not allowed to have nothing. You're not allowed to have anything. 0:11:11.880 --> 0:11:12.760 Where did you get that from? 0:11:12.760 --> 0:11:14.440 Who gave it to you? Why they give you? Go back? 0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:14.880 Take it? 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:16.760 Well, so and so mother said I could have it. 0:11:17.040 --> 0:11:21.160 I this mother. Your mother said, you can't have it. 0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:22.040 Take it back. 0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:25.200 Not a shirt, not a shoe. They can't buy you nothing. 0:11:25.320 --> 0:11:28.880 I mean really, And it's funny because I'm the complete opposite. 0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:31.360 I'm always giving and doing and whatever. 0:11:31.720 --> 0:11:33.720 Perhaps some of it has to do with that, But 0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:35.840 I tell you one thing, I do not have expectations 0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:38.120 that anybody's gonna give me anything. But that brings me 0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:42.560 to my thought of the day today. My thought of 0:11:42.559 --> 0:11:46.080 the day today is really kind of like a question. 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:54.360 I'm wondering if people have decided to throw their hands 0:11:54.440 --> 0:11:57.280 up as it relates to police violence, and they just 0:11:57.320 --> 0:12:01.040 over it like that's it, you know, we just it 0:12:01.080 --> 0:12:04.360 is what it is. We've accepted that the police can 0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:10.280 kill us and then probably probably probably will be not 0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:14.080 much to come of it. We can be abused in 0:12:14.120 --> 0:12:19.319 our communities, pulled over, profiled, in some cases, sexually assaulted. 0:12:19.400 --> 0:12:21.720 We know what we're dealing with in Kansas City, Kansas, 0:12:22.440 --> 0:12:26.080 but its officer will sexually assaulting women for years, for 0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:30.680 thirty years, and nobody's gonna do anything about it. And 0:12:30.720 --> 0:12:34.520 so therefore we have sort of decided to relinquish our 0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:37.680 fight and our efforts in that area and just move 0:12:37.720 --> 0:12:41.840 on to financial matters. And maybe there are people who 0:12:41.840 --> 0:12:45.079 really truly believe, which I do believe in some ways, 0:12:45.559 --> 0:12:51.520 that the more economic development and economic growth that we 0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:55.160 have in our communities, then we will have less of 0:12:55.160 --> 0:12:57.000 a need for law enforcement. 0:12:57.600 --> 0:13:02.240 But what I always go back to is how we have. 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:08.720 Watched communities be extremely economically sound, especially black communities like 0:13:08.880 --> 0:13:16.360 Rosewood and Jacksonville, Florida, or Tulsa, Oklahoma, where the fact 0:13:16.400 --> 0:13:19.400 that we would even get together and try to have 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:22.839 our own economic engines that pisces them off to and 0:13:22.920 --> 0:13:26.480 they find a way to physically buy fire blow it up, 0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:29.439 not blow it up as in set the leaders up 0:13:30.440 --> 0:13:34.160 and whatever. I'm talking no conspiracy there. We're talking about physical. 0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:34.920 Fire is burning. 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:38.319 And I'm wondering the reason why I'm asking this question 0:13:38.400 --> 0:13:41.720 around have people just decided police violence, that's one we 0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:42.240 can't win. 0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:44.480 We moving on from it is. 0:13:44.480 --> 0:13:48.440 Because I'm not sure how you have or how you 0:13:48.720 --> 0:13:52.440 as a black man, especially but black people in general, 0:13:53.600 --> 0:13:59.920 some of them are so excited about Trump and his presidents, 0:14:01.160 --> 0:14:04.640 knowing that this is a man who does not believe 0:14:05.200 --> 0:14:12.080 at all that policing should have controls that hold people, 0:14:12.280 --> 0:14:16.000 hold people accountable for harming black and brown folks. We 0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:18.000 know that because he said it so many times. I'm 0:14:18.040 --> 0:14:19.280 not debating it with anybody. 0:14:19.320 --> 0:14:21.880 We know. We said that. We lived through administration where 0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:22.720 he showed it. 0:14:22.920 --> 0:14:25.560 Right, so we know it. So that's that right. And 0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:27.960 I'm not asking this question to focus so much in 0:14:28.040 --> 0:14:32.280 on Trump, but I'm just thinking about the whole pie. 0:14:32.360 --> 0:14:38.000 Because here last week the police went into a man's house, 0:14:38.080 --> 0:14:42.480 Brandon Durham, our brother, Lee Merritt, the attorney is the 0:14:42.560 --> 0:14:46.080 attorney for the family. And then you have ministers Stretch 0:14:46.480 --> 0:14:49.520 from Las Vegas, who is our guy who is there 0:14:50.040 --> 0:14:53.040 working to mobilize the local community. And even he said 0:14:53.400 --> 0:14:57.400 getting people really active and engage and you know, make 0:14:57.520 --> 0:14:58.640 getting people to show up. 0:14:58.880 --> 0:15:01.960 It's not as easy as not even as easy. 0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:07.680 People are not as enthusiastic about being out there to 0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:11.280 push back against the system. Then you have folks that 0:15:11.280 --> 0:15:13.280 we're going to have on the show later on who 0:15:13.360 --> 0:15:17.600 are dealing with trying to force the City of Louisville 0:15:17.920 --> 0:15:22.600 to sign a consent degree with this particular administration, this 0:15:22.720 --> 0:15:27.040 Department of Justice to deal with a list of things 0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:31.640 that the Department of Justice found when they investigated the 0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:36.920 police department for all types of abuse against of power, right, 0:15:37.280 --> 0:15:40.840 And so you got that happening in one hand, and 0:15:40.880 --> 0:15:43.640 then on the other hand, it seems that there are 0:15:43.680 --> 0:15:45.840 people who are like, don't worry about it, or I 0:15:45.840 --> 0:15:47.640 don't know what they feel, and maybe I don't have 0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:50.320 the answer. So I'm hoping that in the comments section 0:15:50.720 --> 0:15:53.760 we're gonna get some answers from folks on where do 0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:56.720 they stand with that? Because Brandon Durham, which I was 0:15:56.720 --> 0:16:00.480 about to say, in Las Vegas, calls the police because 0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:03.400 there's an intruder in his home while he and his 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:07.440 fifteen year old daughter in the house, and they tell 0:16:07.600 --> 0:16:10.600 them the description of the person who's in the house. 0:16:11.200 --> 0:16:16.480 When the police officer came, he being the man in 0:16:16.520 --> 0:16:19.560 the house. The man who the house belongs to, is 0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:23.240 fighting off a woman who is in the clothes with 0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:27.560 the description that has been reported. He is in the 0:16:27.560 --> 0:16:32.000 clothes or she is she was in a red outfit, 0:16:32.560 --> 0:16:37.040 which is what was reported on the call when police 0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:40.080 help was asked, was requested. 0:16:41.400 --> 0:16:42.800 When the police got. 0:16:42.560 --> 0:16:46.640 There, they shot him the man who house it is. 0:16:46.680 --> 0:16:51.720 They killed Brandon Durham instead of a woman. So, you know, 0:16:51.800 --> 0:16:55.800 like I said, I really want people to just tell 0:16:55.920 --> 0:17:01.520 me have they decided that police violence? Because here's my 0:17:01.640 --> 0:17:06.359 real question because I know that the Trump supporters and 0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:08.320 the black people who tell us that we out of 0:17:08.320 --> 0:17:14.520 our mind. You know, we just doing boogieyman, those people. 0:17:15.160 --> 0:17:17.200 I want to know what the brand and Durham because 0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:19.400 that's what they're gonna do. They always come as well, 0:17:19.440 --> 0:17:22.200 Breonna Taylor was with a guy and he was this 0:17:22.600 --> 0:17:26.760 he was a drug dealer. And then George Floyd, he 0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:31.040 just had something. I don't know if fake twenty whatever nonsense. 0:17:31.080 --> 0:17:33.520 Things they come up. They have an excuse for every 0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:37.040 single situation. So what are they going to say about 0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:38.320 Brandon Durham. 0:17:38.640 --> 0:17:39.400 What did he do? 0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:42.000 He was in his house and he reported the person 0:17:42.640 --> 0:17:47.159 who was in there and gave a description of what 0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:49.280 the person was wearing, and the police came there and 0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:54.120 shot him to death. Now the Trump presidency, his position is, 0:17:54.400 --> 0:17:59.080 which we know that Copston have full immunity from prosecution. 0:18:00.080 --> 0:18:03.760 Mistakes happened, issues happen while they're out there working, but 0:18:03.800 --> 0:18:05.520 they should be able to do their jobs and they 0:18:05.520 --> 0:18:08.560 should not have to worry about people like you and. 0:18:08.560 --> 0:18:10.080 Me making a finger it. 0:18:10.520 --> 0:18:13.080 So I'm just, I just, I really want people to 0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:14.400 let me know where we at. 0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:21.280 I believe that, you know, after the George Floyd era, 0:18:22.119 --> 0:18:26.000 the powers that be worked very hard to get people 0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:30.720 to not recognize any black issues. You know, they made 0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:35.399 Black Lives matter a curse word. They made d a 0:18:35.440 --> 0:18:39.240 curse word. You know, they may all everything that had 0:18:39.280 --> 0:18:41.600 to woke is a curse word. You know, all the 0:18:41.680 --> 0:18:45.320 things that had the whole world paying attention to the 0:18:45.320 --> 0:18:48.200 injustices that black people were dealing with, the people that said, wow, 0:18:48.280 --> 0:18:50.879 these black people really deal on all of those things 0:18:50.880 --> 0:18:53.919 that led to that that the slogans and everything that 0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:57.560 was attached to that has now, oh in less than 0:18:57.600 --> 0:19:01.440 two three years, has turned into curse towards right. 0:19:01.560 --> 0:19:04.080 So this was very intentional. 0:19:04.119 --> 0:19:07.840 It's very active, you know, and they're not going to 0:19:07.880 --> 0:19:09.720 allow black people to continue to. 0:19:11.760 --> 0:19:13.280 You know, they're not gonna allow black. 0:19:13.080 --> 0:19:17.320 People to continue to be able to evolve and to 0:19:17.440 --> 0:19:20.399 grow and get justice and equity in America. So this 0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:25.119 is very intentional. You know, they keep drilling the same 0:19:25.160 --> 0:19:27.680 things in your head. You have black people who try 0:19:27.720 --> 0:19:30.760 to tell you, you know that di is a bad thing, 0:19:30.840 --> 0:19:34.000 and being woke is a bad thing, and black lives matters. Well, 0:19:34.040 --> 0:19:36.000 don't say, nobody want to hear that black lives matter? 0:19:36.040 --> 0:19:37.960 And why do black people need to do this? And 0:19:38.000 --> 0:19:40.600 why does somebody have to have black people? So, because 0:19:40.640 --> 0:19:43.840 you don't need nobody culturally competent to understand what's going 0:19:43.840 --> 0:19:47.000 on with black people issues. We don't need an administration 0:19:47.320 --> 0:19:50.360 that includes us. We don't need a world that includes 0:19:50.440 --> 0:19:52.640 us and sees the value in the black people, especially 0:19:52.640 --> 0:19:54.680 when you have to deal with the issues that black 0:19:54.720 --> 0:19:58.120 people do. So when we're talking about black people getting killed, 0:19:58.200 --> 0:20:01.359 police killing us, they they have none thus to it. 0:20:01.400 --> 0:20:03.480 They made it seem like that's not a big thing. Though, No, 0:20:03.480 --> 0:20:06.399 no white kids about that, y'all just victim you know 0:20:06.520 --> 0:20:09.280 what you are, We have victimhood because we should just 0:20:09.320 --> 0:20:13.399 be okay with be a shot. We should be no really, 0:20:13.440 --> 0:20:15.639 because this is what people tell you what you talk about, Hey, 0:20:15.880 --> 0:20:18.560 policia have no just victimhood. Nobody want to hear that, 0:20:18.960 --> 0:20:23.000 and they quickly dismiss it. And they've got some of 0:20:23.080 --> 0:20:26.119 us to actually buy into that. So what I'm saying 0:20:26.240 --> 0:20:31.440 is I'm not surprised, but you know, I'm also understanding 0:20:31.440 --> 0:20:33.280 that that's that's why we are here. 0:20:33.760 --> 0:20:36.800 Unfortunately, that's why we're here. 0:20:37.160 --> 0:20:37.520 This is. 0:20:38.960 --> 0:20:40.960 Because when I sit there and I listen to it, 0:20:41.240 --> 0:20:43.879 my soul is not okay with that. No matter how 0:20:43.920 --> 0:20:46.359 many people I can sit in room with one million 0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:48.720 people try to tell me just forget about it and 0:20:48.760 --> 0:20:51.359 it's not that serious, and my soul is not okay 0:20:51.400 --> 0:20:54.480 with that because I understand so understand what it is 0:20:54.520 --> 0:20:56.520 that I was called here to do is to fight 0:20:56.600 --> 0:20:59.679 for my people, doing regard even despite of my people. 0:20:59.880 --> 0:21:02.320 I'm a fight for my people. So that's the reality 0:21:02.359 --> 0:21:05.920 we're dealing with. You know, unfortunately that we don't see 0:21:06.320 --> 0:21:08.280 the people that care, but we know that people are 0:21:08.320 --> 0:21:10.440 kid because they are people that hit us and tell 0:21:10.520 --> 0:21:13.159 us every day, you know, please keep fighting. Don't let 0:21:13.240 --> 0:21:16.000 these people stop you from fighting. But sometimes you get 0:21:16.040 --> 0:21:17.960 you get weary, you be like, man, what the fuck 0:21:18.000 --> 0:21:19.959 am I fighting, and I realized I say that all 0:21:19.960 --> 0:21:22.359 the time. That's what happened to a lot of our leaders, 0:21:22.400 --> 0:21:25.000 that your quote unquote quote sellouts because. 0:21:25.520 --> 0:21:28.640 People have told you directly that I wouldn't be with you, 0:21:28.720 --> 0:21:30.200 but I can't do it anymore. 0:21:30.240 --> 0:21:32.640 I can't do it anymore, you know, And that's what happens. 0:21:32.880 --> 0:21:36.040 So you know, it is it is a It is 0:21:36.080 --> 0:21:39.720 a hard fight. It is not one when we look 0:21:39.720 --> 0:21:42.800 at even doctor King. We celebrate Doctor King now, but 0:21:42.840 --> 0:21:45.400 the same people celebrate them now call them names. They 0:21:45.400 --> 0:21:48.600 called them coon, they called them sellout. Malcolm Max was 0:21:48.920 --> 0:21:51.439
