But I like, just on the topic 989 00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:49,080 Speaker 5: of women being different and women coming together in community 990 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 5: and like not judging each other, I'll admit, like I 991 00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:55,839 Speaker 5: have definitely said some inappropriate things about religion before, like 992 00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 5: Bible thumpers, or like don't say that the Christians are 993 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:03,000 Speaker 5: not going to like it, so I can admit I 994 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:06,240 Speaker 5: can first hand admit that, like because I know I'm 995 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 5: so heathenish and vocal that like sometimes if I meet 996 00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 5: someone and they're like okay. So for instance, one time 997 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 5: I was getting my hair braided. My cousin was getting 998 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:17,480 Speaker 5: her hair braided, and I came over to visit, and 999 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:19,400 Speaker 5: she had another friend there that I had never met before. 1000 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:22,640 Speaker 1: Anyway, I'm real hippy dippy. 1001 00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:25,920 Speaker 5: And I you know, in mid conversation, I spotted some sage. 1002 00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 1: I started lighting the. 1003 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 5: Stage, and I took it upon myself to start smudging everybody, 1004 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 5: which is literally just taking the smoke around everybody's head 1005 00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:34,280 Speaker 5: to feet. 1006 00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:37,200 Speaker 1: Mid conversation. Didn't ask permission. 1007 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:39,080 Speaker 5: Didn't think about it, just thought I'm doing everybody if 1008 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:43,680 Speaker 5: grand favor, clearing the energy. Everybody wants their smudge stage today, 1009 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 5: So here I am. 1010 00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:46,799 Speaker 1: So this one girl was there and she was like, 1011 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:55,279 Speaker 1: a ah, no, no. I was like, what have I done? 1012 00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 1: She was like, I'm a Christian. I was like, what 1013 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:00,800 Speaker 1: does that mean? 1014 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 6: What does that mean? 1015 00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:04,799 Speaker 3: So okay, I'm glad that you said that. 1016 00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:08,359 Speaker 8: So the thing is, you know, I know who I am, 1017 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 8: I know what I believe, and it's taken me. So 1018 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 8: I believe that I'm not offended by difference. Difference is 1019 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:24,600 Speaker 8: not a threat to me. I think that indifference and 1020 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:28,920 Speaker 8: in uh you know, dissonance and sometimes confusion and places 1021 00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 8: where we don't line up, it's lots of opportunities. 1022 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:33,440 Speaker 3: For learning and understanding. 1023 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:39,000 Speaker 8: And you know, I think me being around people who 1024 00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:43,480 Speaker 8: don't believe what I believe strengthens my belief even further. 1025 00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:47,160 Speaker 3: It's not a threat to it. It makes me dig. 1026 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:51,760 Speaker 8: Down and really understand and really seek to be clear 1027 00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:54,560 Speaker 8: about why I believe and what I believe. So I 1028 00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:57,160 Speaker 8: think a lot of times and I think it's it's 1029 00:48:57,520 --> 00:49:01,800 Speaker 8: not unfounded, right. So I think religion has been used inappropriately. 1030 00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 8: I think a lot of people have used it to 1031 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:09,960 Speaker 8: do some hateful, harmful, hurtful things, and as such it's 1032 00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:13,839 Speaker 8: gotten a bad rap, right, And so I have had 1033 00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 8: to kind of interrogate that on my own in terms of, 1034 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:18,759 Speaker 8: you know, what I believe in, where things line up 1035 00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,759 Speaker 8: and where they don't. And I think where I land is, 1036 00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:27,799 Speaker 8: you know, respect and love, And I mean, I am 1037 00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:30,560 Speaker 8: a Christian. I believe in Jesus Christ, and I believe 1038 00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 8: that as a Christian is my my duty, my responsibility, 1039 00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:36,719 Speaker 8: my aim, my aspiration to live life like he did. 1040 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:39,759 Speaker 8: And Jesus did not hang around a bunch of church folks. 1041 00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:42,080 Speaker 8: It was church folks who actually killed you about to 1042 00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:47,360 Speaker 8: say I was like Jesus, but Jesus didn't. Jesus was 1043 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:51,880 Speaker 8: around people people hang around heavens. Jesus was hanging around 1044 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:56,720 Speaker 8: unseemingly people, people who did not, you know, fall neatly. 1045 00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:59,040 Speaker 8: And I say that with the air quotes. Now, I'm 1046 00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:02,360 Speaker 8: not judging anybody on here, because I don't. I feel 1047 00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:05,160 Speaker 8: like I am. So I'm so caught up in my 1048 00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:07,400 Speaker 8: own relationship with Jesus Christ. I don't have time to 1049 00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:10,120 Speaker 8: police anybody else's, so I don't say, I don't. I 1050 00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:13,839 Speaker 8: don't deem you know, I can't condemn anybody to hell 1051 00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 8: because I'm trying to keep myself out. So whatever decisions 1052 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:19,239 Speaker 8: she make is between you and the gods that you 1053 00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:22,160 Speaker 8: serve and who you believe in. I'm just literally trying 1054 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:24,480 Speaker 8: to make sure that I'm I'm okay over here. And 1055 00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:29,040 Speaker 8: so when people I have different beliefs or different you know, 1056 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:32,440 Speaker 8: perceptions or understandings or perspectives or but you know, it 1057 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:34,880 Speaker 8: doesn't shake me. And I think that that's something that 1058 00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:37,440 Speaker 8: a lot of church church folks, I'm not gonna call 1059 00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:39,839 Speaker 8: them Christians, I'm a lot of church folks struggle with right. 1060 00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:43,520 Speaker 8: We're so threatened by difference because I think and I 1061 00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:45,759 Speaker 8: think that's a lot of that has to do with insecurity. 1062 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 3: But I'm secure in who I am and what I 1063 00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:48,719 Speaker 3: believe in why I believe it. 1064 00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 8: So if somebody believes differently than me, it doesn't mean 1065 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:53,520 Speaker 8: I can't have a conversation with them, doesn't mean I 1066 00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:56,240 Speaker 8: can't be their friend. It just means what it means, 1067 00:50:56,440 --> 00:50:59,640 Speaker 8: like you know, like Jay, you know, you know, I mean, 1068 00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:02,880 Speaker 8: I think this is something that I've come to really 1069 00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 8: love about my friendship with Jade because we are connected 1070 00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:11,799 Speaker 8: as people and we respect one another as people so 1071 00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:16,560 Speaker 8: much that it's not even a tolerance. It's more like 1072 00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:20,000 Speaker 8: I embrace Jade for who she is, and Jade embraces. 1073 00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:20,480 Speaker 3: Me for who I am. 1074 00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:25,000 Speaker 8: And so even though Jade is not I don't want 1075 00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:27,160 Speaker 8: to say it like this, but like Jade is not 1076 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:28,920 Speaker 8: a praying person, like you don't see her and be 1077 00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:30,200 Speaker 8: like Jay gonna drop down. 1078 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:31,280 Speaker 3: And pray us all to heaven. 1079 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:34,799 Speaker 8: But if jaye like when i'm you know what I'm saying, 1080 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 8: and I say, like you, she connects with God differently 1081 00:51:38,080 --> 00:51:41,279 Speaker 8: than how like conventional church folks. But when Jay knows 1082 00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:44,240 Speaker 8: that I'm upset, or when Jay knows that I'm bothered 1083 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,960 Speaker 8: about something, she knows that that's the way where I 1084 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:50,839 Speaker 8: go to what gives me peace. Jay will say, let's pray, 1085 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:53,879 Speaker 8: or Jay will pray. And so the fact that she's 1086 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:57,160 Speaker 8: willing to she knows that about me, and she's willing, 1087 00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:59,320 Speaker 8: you know, that's why I will never you know, I 1088 00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:02,279 Speaker 8: think that that's beautiful. I think that that is I 1089 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:05,160 Speaker 8: think that that's what Christ's intended, you know. I think 1090 00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 8: that that's when we really get in Christianity, right, is 1091 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:10,600 Speaker 8: when we can sit around and have conversations with folks 1092 00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:13,960 Speaker 8: who are who believe fundamentally differently than we do. 1093 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:16,640 Speaker 3: But it doesn't have to be that, oh f you ah, 1094 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:19,399 Speaker 3: you stupid. It don't have to be that. It's just like, okay, 1095 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:20,160 Speaker 3: that's different for me. 1096 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 8: Okay, because even when y'all was reading the tarot card 1097 00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:24,000 Speaker 8: at the beginning, I was over here, like. 1098 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:28,279 Speaker 1: Okay, read it whatever. 1099 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:32,080 Speaker 8: I was over here, and I mean I wasn't shaken. 1100 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:33,799 Speaker 8: It wasn't like, oh God, what I'm gonna do?

And that's where 1203 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:05,239 Speaker 5: you really grow, because you know, you know, I could 1204 00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:08,040 Speaker 5: think one way and then have a conversations about Kia 1205 00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:11,000 Speaker 5: and totally walk away with a completely different perspective of 1206 00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 5: what I thought religious women were like Christian women were like, 1207 00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:17,200 Speaker 5: and that like, oh, don't you know I don't want 1208 00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:18,400 Speaker 5: her to come because she's not gonna be happy. And 1209 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:19,800 Speaker 5: I take my shirt off at the party because you know, 1210 00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:20,800 Speaker 5: I'm gonna take my shirt off at. 1211 00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 1: The party, you know what I mean. I would be 1212 00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:27,120 Speaker 1: the strip club you enjoy yourt I'm going to. 1213 00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:30,560 Speaker 3: Enjoy your you know what. 1214 00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:33,600 Speaker 9: I'm saying, You'll just go to church on Sunday and yeah, 1215 00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:36,200 Speaker 9: in three different services. 1216 00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:38,640 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. 1217 00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:42,360 Speaker 9: That's that's what it's gonna be. But we do love 1218 00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:44,680 Speaker 9: each other for our differences. I pray in a different 1219 00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:46,160 Speaker 9: way than Kia. But if I need to pray with 1220 00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:47,880 Speaker 9: Key in a way that I know it's gonna resonate 1221 00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:50,120 Speaker 9: with her if she's dealing with something, That's what I'm 1222 00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:52,560 Speaker 9: gonna do for sure, you know, because that's what that's. 1223 00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:54,320 Speaker 4: What spirit that's what spiritual movie to do. 1224 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:58,320 Speaker 9: This is about humanity, right, So I think our foundation 1225 00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:01,840 Speaker 9: as Black women should come into play more than anything, 1226 00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:03,120 Speaker 9: and how we love one another. 1227 00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:06,960 Speaker 8: I think our difference is where the beauty. Where the 1228 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:09,320 Speaker 8: beauty is. The beauty is in the difference, absolutely. 1229 00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:10,760 Speaker 3: And I think, and you know, I'm in. 1230 00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:12,960 Speaker 8: A place in my life and my scholarship, you know, 1231 00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:15,520 Speaker 8: in my studies where I feel like, you know, white 1232 00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:17,720 Speaker 8: supremacy is responsible for everything. 1233 00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:20,760 Speaker 3: So I think that what what it was. 1234 00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 8: And I think we think critically about what that what 1235 00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:26,480 Speaker 8: it meant for us to be property in this country, 1236 00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:29,320 Speaker 8: and we think about the implications of that. What that 1237 00:58:29,400 --> 00:58:32,240 Speaker 8: has done, I think it is it is the cause 1238 00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:35,080 Speaker 8: for all of the division that exists because we were 1239 00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:37,800 Speaker 8: we were pit against one another. We were we were 1240 00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:42,720 Speaker 8: uh socialized to compete and compare and draw each other 1241 00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:44,760 Speaker 8: down because we were taught that there was only just 1242 00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:47,040 Speaker 8: a few spaces that we would be, that we were 1243 00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:50,440 Speaker 8: all fighting for, when the reality is it's enough space 1244 00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:53,960 Speaker 8: out here for all of us to win, because we're 1245 00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:56,520 Speaker 8: supposed to be winning being ourselves, not trying to be 1246 00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:01,280 Speaker 8: like the next person and so and and like you said, 1247 00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:07,560 Speaker 8: difference is where the learning is. I study organizational learning 1248 00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:12,840 Speaker 8: and organizational change thinking about what institutional leaders need in 1249 00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:17,200 Speaker 8: order to to to catalyze and push change agendas on 1250 00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:21,000 Speaker 8: their and you know, within their organization. So everyone has 1251 00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:23,720 Speaker 8: these inclusion and diversity statements, right, and so we have 1252 00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:27,480 Speaker 8: these lofty aspirations for we want to be equitable and 1253 00:59:27,640 --> 00:59:31,680 Speaker 8: inclusive organization, but we look at our practice and how 1254 00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:35,040 Speaker 8: we behave it is the it is the opposite of inclusion. 1255 00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:40,840 Speaker 8: And so in reading the literature around like how organizations learn, 1256 00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:44,640 Speaker 8: it is not by similarity, it is by difference. It 1257 00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:46,680 Speaker 8: is not by success, it is by failure. 1258 00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:47,320 Speaker 1: So it. 1259 00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:51,840 Speaker 8: It actually requires us to embrace the areas where we 1260 00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:55,120 Speaker 8: disconnect the things, cause I mean only only when we 1261 00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 8: do that is where we can kind of those are 1262 00:59:56,880 --> 01:00:00,000 Speaker 8: the opportunities for us to learn, you know, different perspectives 1263 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 8: and what other people are going through and see where 1264 01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:04,080 Speaker 8: the similarities are because they exist. 1265 01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:07,280 Speaker 3: So like we're all about community on getting grown. 1266 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:11,920 Speaker 8: I learned so much from sharing space and time with 1267 01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:14,200 Speaker 8: women who didn't who are who are different than me, 1268 01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:16,880 Speaker 8: because I don't learn anything from being around a bunch 1269 01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:20,560 Speaker 8: of people who are just like me, who think like 1270 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:21,120 Speaker 8: I think. 1271 01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:24,480 Speaker 3: So yeah, I mean all of that. 1272 01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:26,480 Speaker 8: I think we have to if we're really going to 1273 01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:29,200 Speaker 8: get to a place where we can hold white folks 1274 01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:33,320 Speaker 8: accountable for all of the ways in which the world 1275 01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:35,680 Speaker 8: is divided. That means we have to stand up in 1276 01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:37,120 Speaker 8: the ways that we divide ourselves. 1277 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:39,640 Speaker 6: Absolutely amen that. 1278 01:00:41,400 --> 01:00:43,480 Speaker 2: I couldn't. I couldn't agree. I couldn't agree more. And 1279 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:45,160 Speaker 2: I didn't say amen to be in an asshole. 1280 01:00:45,360 --> 01:00:49,600 Speaker 1: Oh no, I mean that because I really mean that 1281 01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:50,800 Speaker 1: mean that. 1282 01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:52,360 Speaker 6: I think that that's. 1283 01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:56,240 Speaker 2: I think that that really is also like, yeah, the 1284 01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:59,400 Speaker 2: beauty and what we do and it's kind of like 1285 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:01,600 Speaker 2: I didn't even know, oh that that was what I 1286 01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:02,760 Speaker 2: was doing, you know. 1287 01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:05,680 Speaker 8: Right, because we was all socialized to do it. They 1288 01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:08,000 Speaker 8: taught us how to do it in grade school. It's 1289 01:01:08,040 --> 01:01:10,720 Speaker 8: all about being the first, being the best, and if 1290 01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:13,080 Speaker 8: I got to step on my sister's neck to do it, 1291 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:13,920 Speaker 8: then so be it. 1292 01:01:14,440 --> 01:01:18,200 Speaker 9: That's that's capitally not being the same, right, Like we're 1293 01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:18,680 Speaker 9: not the same. 1294 01:01:18,720 --> 01:01:19,840 Speaker 1: We can't be friendsactly. 1295 01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 9: I can tell Kia I'm working on my altar this weekend, 1296 01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:24,400 Speaker 9: and she's like, that's beautiful. 1297 01:01:26,040 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 4: Put it. 1298 01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:29,840 Speaker 8: What goes on something like that, girl, tell me about it. 1299 01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:31,479 Speaker 6: It means but I think that's great. 1300 01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:34,320 Speaker 3: I don't know about that, but I'm happy that that 1301 01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:36,880 Speaker 3: is bringing you joy.

It's so 1477 01:09:51,720 --> 01:09:57,479 Speaker 8: much bigger than it's not okay for you know, you know, 1478 01:09:57,640 --> 01:10:00,200 Speaker 8: whether it is whether or not it's okay for a 1479 01:10:00,200 --> 01:10:01,720 Speaker 8: man to prefer a light skinned woman. 1480 01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:03,920 Speaker 3: It's bigger than that. We're talking about systems. 1481 01:10:03,960 --> 01:10:08,960 Speaker 8: We're talking about power, structures, privileged systems, and this young 1482 01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:12,120 Speaker 8: lady who is a white Latina, right and who who 1483 01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:15,840 Speaker 8: has the privilege of associating herself like she can she 1484 01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:19,000 Speaker 8: can take her blackness on and off. If she says 1485 01:10:19,000 --> 01:10:23,639 Speaker 8: that she's a black person in the LATINX community, then that's, 1486 01:10:23,720 --> 01:10:25,760 Speaker 8: you know, we believe that, or she can say that 1487 01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:28,120 Speaker 8: she's not. So we have to acknowledge that that in 1488 01:10:28,160 --> 01:10:30,879 Speaker 8: and of itself is a privilege. Because I'm black everywhere 1489 01:10:30,920 --> 01:10:33,320 Speaker 8: I go, I can't say that I'm not black. So 1490 01:10:33,320 --> 01:10:35,640 Speaker 8: so the thing about that is like, you know, we 1491 01:10:35,720 --> 01:10:38,240 Speaker 8: have to really what it pained me to watch it 1492 01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:42,360 Speaker 8: watch her apology, because it was like we I think 1493 01:10:42,400 --> 01:10:45,439 Speaker 8: we all get further faster if we really think about 1494 01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:49,040 Speaker 8: these things and call them what they are. These are 1495 01:10:49,240 --> 01:10:52,719 Speaker 8: systems and structures and ideologies that we have to combat. 1496 01:10:53,360 --> 01:10:55,439 Speaker 3: We have to recognize that it is. It is like, 1497 01:10:55,479 --> 01:10:56,920 Speaker 3: you know, light. 1498 01:10:57,360 --> 01:11:01,320 Speaker 8: Skinned women being preferred because of their proxyy to whiteness 1499 01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:04,320 Speaker 8: and then talking about anti blackness, and I don't know, 1500 01:11:04,360 --> 01:11:06,240 Speaker 8: people like to call me deep and all extra, but 1501 01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:08,080 Speaker 8: I just feel like this is this is who I 1502 01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:10,519 Speaker 8: have to be because I mean, there's no point in 1503 01:11:10,520 --> 01:11:12,200 Speaker 8: me reading and learning this stuff if I don't talk 1504 01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:14,320 Speaker 8: about it, but I think we would we just get 1505 01:11:14,360 --> 01:11:14,719 Speaker 8: a lot. 1506 01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:16,240 Speaker 3: We get a lot. 1507 01:11:16,400 --> 01:11:18,320 Speaker 8: We would get a lot further, a lot faster, if 1508 01:11:18,360 --> 01:11:22,160 Speaker 8: we would stop getting so mired down and going back 1509 01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:24,520 Speaker 8: and forth.
