Speaker 1: I Sy's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's
Speaker 1: up to Size? Team? You're listening to. The Daily Game
Speaker 1: a compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years
Speaker 1: that I've found inspiring and helped me through the game
Speaker 1: of life. Today's quote comes from Angela Davis, a prominent
Speaker 1: figure in the US civil rights movement. In the nineteen sixties,
Speaker 1: she found a Critical Resistance, a national grassroots organization dedicated
Speaker 1: to building a movement to abolish the prison system. Angelus says,
Speaker 1: in a racist society is not enough to be non racist.
Speaker 1: We must be anti racist. It's true. You have to
Speaker 1: fight racism. You can't just be a non racist. It's
Speaker 1: not good enough just to sit back and say, well,
Speaker 1: I'm not racist. You have to address racism as it
Speaker 1: showed its face. If I'm around somebody and they might
Speaker 1: be racist against white people, you know, I'm going to
Speaker 1: ask them why. I'm going to ask them, you know
Speaker 1: where does that come from? Well, you know, it's not
Speaker 1: all white people. You can't put it all on white people.
Speaker 1: You can't put it on on Mesicans, you can't put
Speaker 1: it all on Chinese people. You can't do that. They
Speaker 1: might call me an asshole and move on. But at
Speaker 1: least I thought it. I stood for it, and I
Speaker 1: said my piece. We have to fight racism. You can't
Speaker 1: just be anti it, you know what I'm saying. It's
Speaker 1: you have to look at it like any other cancer
Speaker 1: in the system. Racism plagues the world. You know, wherever
Speaker 1: you go, there's certain people that don't like other people
Speaker 1: because of their race. But it's the stupidest thing in
Speaker 1: the history of the world. You know, just looking at
Speaker 1: somebody in the side and because of that race, I
Speaker 1: don't like them. I'll never understand it. I've always judged
Speaker 1: the devil by its deeds. I've always looked at people
Speaker 1: as being the same. The guy that looks like me
Speaker 1: might put the knife in my back. The whitest guy
Speaker 1: might be the guy that drags me out of that fire.
Speaker 1: So my theory of looking at somebody for race is stupid.
Speaker 1: But in a society that we are in, it's not
Speaker 1: enough just to be non racist. We must be anti racist.
Speaker 1: That's Angela Davis. This has been another ice cold fact
Speaker 1: from me iced tea. Listening again tomorrow when I drop
Speaker 1: some wisdom on your ass Till then, stay safe. Stay
Speaker 1: smart and don't stay quiet when you know your fellow man,
Speaker 1: or your neighbor, your friends are facing undeserved racism on
