WEBVTT - AntiRacist

0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:04.440
<v Speaker 1>I Sy's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's

0:00:04.519 --> 0:00:07.680
<v Speaker 1>up to Size? Team? You're listening to. The Daily Game

0:00:08.160 --> 0:00:11.959
<v Speaker 1>a compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years

0:00:12.240 --> 0:00:16.000
<v Speaker 1>that I've found inspiring and helped me through the game

0:00:16.040 --> 0:00:22.280
<v Speaker 1>of life. Today's quote comes from Angela Davis, a prominent

0:00:22.320 --> 0:00:26.200
<v Speaker 1>figure in the US civil rights movement. In the nineteen sixties,

0:00:26.920 --> 0:00:32.560
<v Speaker 1>she found a Critical Resistance, a national grassroots organization dedicated

0:00:32.600 --> 0:00:37.720
<v Speaker 1>to building a movement to abolish the prison system. Angelus says,

0:00:38.640 --> 0:00:43.199
<v Speaker 1>in a racist society is not enough to be non racist.

0:00:43.920 --> 0:00:49.680
<v Speaker 1>We must be anti racist. It's true. You have to

0:00:49.720 --> 0:00:53.640
<v Speaker 1>fight racism. You can't just be a non racist. It's

0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:55.640
<v Speaker 1>not good enough just to sit back and say, well,

0:00:55.680 --> 0:00:59.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm not racist. You have to address racism as it

0:00:59.720 --> 0:01:03.880
<v Speaker 1>showed its face. If I'm around somebody and they might

0:01:03.920 --> 0:01:07.120
<v Speaker 1>be racist against white people, you know, I'm going to

0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:09.600
<v Speaker 1>ask them why. I'm going to ask them, you know

0:01:09.640 --> 0:01:11.640
<v Speaker 1>where does that come from? Well, you know, it's not

0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:14.480
<v Speaker 1>all white people. You can't put it all on white people.

0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:16.520
<v Speaker 1>You can't put it on on Mesicans, you can't put

0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:19.720
<v Speaker 1>it all on Chinese people. You can't do that. They

0:01:19.800 --> 0:01:21.959
<v Speaker 1>might call me an asshole and move on. But at

0:01:22.040 --> 0:01:24.959
<v Speaker 1>least I thought it. I stood for it, and I

0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:28.920
<v Speaker 1>said my piece. We have to fight racism. You can't

0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:33.000
<v Speaker 1>just be anti it, you know what I'm saying. It's

0:01:33.080 --> 0:01:36.120
<v Speaker 1>you have to look at it like any other cancer

0:01:36.160 --> 0:01:40.039
<v Speaker 1>in the system. Racism plagues the world. You know, wherever

0:01:40.080 --> 0:01:43.440
<v Speaker 1>you go, there's certain people that don't like other people

0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:47.400
<v Speaker 1>because of their race. But it's the stupidest thing in

0:01:47.440 --> 0:01:50.960
<v Speaker 1>the history of the world. You know, just looking at

0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:53.560
<v Speaker 1>somebody in the side and because of that race, I

0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:57.440
<v Speaker 1>don't like them. I'll never understand it. I've always judged

0:01:57.440 --> 0:02:00.920
<v Speaker 1>the devil by its deeds. I've always looked at people

0:02:01.320 --> 0:02:04.800
<v Speaker 1>as being the same. The guy that looks like me

0:02:04.920 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 1>might put the knife in my back. The whitest guy

0:02:07.800 --> 0:02:09.919
<v Speaker 1>might be the guy that drags me out of that fire.

0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:15.720
<v Speaker 1>So my theory of looking at somebody for race is stupid.

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:19.240
<v Speaker 1>But in a society that we are in, it's not

0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:24.239
<v Speaker 1>enough just to be non racist. We must be anti racist.

0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:32.440
<v Speaker 1>That's Angela Davis. This has been another ice cold fact

0:02:32.440 --> 0:02:36.080
<v Speaker 1>from me iced tea. Listening again tomorrow when I drop

0:02:36.200 --> 0:02:39.320
<v Speaker 1>some wisdom on your ass Till then, stay safe. Stay

0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:42.960
<v Speaker 1>smart and don't stay quiet when you know your fellow man,

0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:46.520
