1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,000 Speaker 1: I listened to the Black Guy Who Tips podcast because 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:07,920 Speaker 1: Rod and Karen a hot. There were distinct advantages to 3 00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 1: black atheism, to a disbelief in dreams and moral appeal. First, 4 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 1: it removed the way of believing that white people quotes 5 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:20,120 Speaker 1: around it in Mass were interested in listen. We're interested listeners. 6 00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:24,480 Speaker 1: White people in Mass are not. They're like any other people, 7 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 1: mostly self interested, which is why mass appeals to conscience 8 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: minus some compelling existential threat generally end in disappointment. 9 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 2: But I was armed against disappointment. 10 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 1: Because in defiance, I had no expectations of white people 11 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: at all.

The excerpt that I 34 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: read is from We Were eight Years in Power in 35 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: American Tragedy by Tannahose Coats, and that's just a small 36 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: paragraph that I remember highlighting at the time because that 37 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: is the closest I can get to explain in the 38 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: way I view race and race struggles in America. 39 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,119 Speaker 2: And some people think it's too pessimistic. Some people don't 40 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 2: get it. 41 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,959 Speaker 1: You know, I'm not saying I'm always right. There's a 42 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: lot of times where I'm wrong, and I'm happy to 43 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: be wrong. But I wouldn't even describe what I feel 44 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: as pessimism. 45 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 2: I feel is realism. 46 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 1: You look at the history of this country, you look 47 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: at how fucked up it is, and you looked at 48 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: how it's being fucked up, and this is like one 49 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: of those things where you can't ever be too Maybe 50 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: I'm just protecting myself from being too disappointed, but I 51 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: just don't believe in this general idea that white people 52 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: just need to be informed of the black plight and 53 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: then things will change in this country, because people have been. 54 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 2: Trying that for centuries and. 55 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: You find out quickly that it's not so much that 56 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: they're misinformed, but many of them either are generally an 57 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: itch or complicit. 58 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 3: Correct correct, and and and and the thing is because 59 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 3: the problem, at the end of the day is white supremacy, 60 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 3: and that is something that's extremely hard to tackle because 61 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 3: that means you need to change the foundation of this 62 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 3: country and how it was even built. And that's I'm 63 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 3: not gonna say it's impossible, but it's it's it's a 64 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 3: hard task like that. 65 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I don't think a lot of our teachings 66 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: from black history class and activism and stuff when we 67 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 1: were kids, a lot of the teachings that we were 68 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: allowed to learn in school were these moments of white 69 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: people being informed, and then once they were informed, things 70 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,839 Speaker 1: were supposed to get better, but they always gloss over 71 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: the fact that white people knew a lot of cases. 72 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,119 Speaker 1: And then most of the cases where you see progress 73 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: in black people's plight in America, it came at too. 74 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 2: It was fart for tooth and nail. 75 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: It came from Boycot, it came from weld in our 76 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: financial power, it came from federal laws that mayndated that 77 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: there was an intercession of federal troops and stuff like this. 78 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: Like it's always been at force that we have pushed 79 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: white people into giving us even anything close to resembling equality. 80 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: And I think it's very important that people understand that, 81 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: and for people like me that do understand that, it's 82 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: why to some extent there's people that probably think I'm 83 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 1: easier on racism and white people and shit, But it's 84 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 1: not that I'm easier. 85 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 2: I just don't have faith. 86 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 1: I think you have to have faith in somebody in 87 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: order to truly feel let down by them. And if 88 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: I don't feel faith in you can't disappoint me. You know, 89 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: look at it like a child that if you have 90 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: like an absentee father, you have a father figure or 91 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,359 Speaker 1: parental figure that consistently lets you down consistently, at some 92 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: point you draw a boundary off to your emotions and say, 93 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: I'm not expecting you to come on my birthday because 94 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: you don't come. If you show up, okay, cool, nice, 95 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: I'm glad you did what you're supposed to do this year. 96 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 1: But next year we write back to the same spot. 97 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: I'm not going to be hurt because you didn't come 98 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: to my rescue. And So I think a lot of 99 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: times when I talk of especially individual white people, which 100 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 1: is one of the least one of the least affective 101 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: ways to even discuss racism, the individual white celebrity or 102 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: somebody that says something stupid, it's just I always had 103 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: this feeling of like there's a big chance that they 104 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: don't know and don't give a fuck, you know, Like like, 105 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 1: I'm not saying there's no racist white people. 106 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 2: I think you can be racist and not. 107 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: It doesn't necessarily excuse your racism, but I do think 108 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: there's something to be said about I don't think white 109 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: people sit around thinking about us nearly as much as 110 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 1: we think they do. 111 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 3: No, they don't. They don't because when shit happens, a 112 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 3: lot of times be like, ooh, it's my bad. We 113 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 3: didn't even think about that, which is the truth, Like 114 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 3: that the things that we care about and we're concerned 115 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 3: out don't even cross their purview if nobody is there 116 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 3: to advocate on our behalf. 117 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's almost more hurtful in a way that they 118 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: don't think about you. 119 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 2: You know. 120 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 1: It's almost like I wish i'd rather you intentionally say 121 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: I want to hurt you and hurt your people than 122 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: some of the ways we get injured now, which is 123 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: just these haphazard off you know, like I don't know 124 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: if it might sound like a too complicated idea, but 125 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 1: it's almost like more refreshing that you call me a nigger, 126 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: because then I have something to be like, well, see 127 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: now I know exactly what you're saying, and you're not 128 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: even playing around.

Sometimes. 695 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: You know, if I do rapt lrics, Karen's not normally 696 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: going to say anything. 697 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 2: If I do. 698 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:38,959 Speaker 1: Opening with a poem or or or a quote, she 699 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: normally doesn't contribute. But you know, and I didn't prompt 700 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: her to do this or whatever. But when I started 701 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: reading the book quotes, Karen started being like, oh, yeah, 702 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 1: this is how I relate to this quote.

I 1156 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:41,200 Speaker 1: don't keep on Colin Kaeviernick like that shrug emoji, and 1157 00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:42,880 Speaker 1: I said, thanks for the correction, I'll make sure to 1158 00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:44,919 Speaker 1: bring it up on the show, and I did. Miss 1159 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:46,800 Speaker 1: Anderson says The Warmth of other Sons is one of 1160 00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:48,960 Speaker 1: my favorite books. I read it last year, and the 1161 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:50,440 Speaker 1: best thing about the book is that it left me 1162 00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 1: with so many questions from my grandparents who came up 1163 00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:56,960 Speaker 1: to New York from Virginia, questions that never even crossed 1164 00:52:56,960 --> 00:52:59,919 Speaker 1: my mind to ask. I gained so much information about 1165 00:52:59,920 --> 00:53:02,640 Speaker 1: it our history that I can pass down to my children. 1166 00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:05,080 Speaker 2: I loved it. Great book. 1167 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:10,360 Speaker 1: I'm not done yet, obviously, I'm only like seventeen percent in, 1168 00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:14,280 Speaker 1: but still reading it that it's good. Did Cabernets workout 1169 00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:18,520 Speaker 1: change your mind? Yes, I feel differently about the situation 1170 00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:22,960 Speaker 1: though now I was never paying attention or No, I 1171 00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:24,280 Speaker 1: still feel as I did before. 1172 00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:26,360 Speaker 3: The workout, still feels as I did before. 1173 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:27,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I still feel the same. 1174 00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:32,200 Speaker 1: Sixty nine percent agree with us, twenty nine percent say 1175 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:34,960 Speaker 1: they weren't even paying attention before or after this, and 1176 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:36,160 Speaker 1: two percent. 1177 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:38,360 Speaker 2: Say yes, I do feel differently about the situation now. 1178 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:40,840 Speaker 1: And mine says, I don't watch football, so I was 1179 00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 1: never invested in that story. 1180 00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:43,120 Speaker 2: That invested in the story. 1181 00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:45,160 Speaker 1: It seems like he's doing fine despite not having a 1182 00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:47,080 Speaker 1: position on the team. I see stories about things he's 1183 00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:49,279 Speaker 1: doing to educate young people about their rights. If he 1184 00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:51,919 Speaker 1: kept playing football and was never fired, I probably would 1185 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:54,799 Speaker 1: never know his name. Shrug Kem says, I'm not a 1186 00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:57,480 Speaker 1: football fan. I never understood it. However, in junior high, 1187 00:53:57,719 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 1: high school, in college, I stayed going to a game 1188 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,440 Speaker 1: strictly for the purposes of mixing and mngland. Plus I 1189 00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:05,680 Speaker 1: don't understand the specifics and the goal post. Keep moving, 1190 00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:09,360 Speaker 1: Monique says, I noticed that in people's commentary on of 1191 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:11,680 Speaker 1: his workout, they're still bringing up the troops veterans in 1192 00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:12,120 Speaker 1: the flag. 1193 00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:13,720 Speaker 2: What the fuck? Yoh, it's a broken record. 1194 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:16,360 Speaker 1: He's a superior athlete, far superior than some of the 1195 00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:18,520 Speaker 1: starting quarterbacks in the league. I mean, come on, now, 1196 00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:21,279 Speaker 1: I take him in a hardbat over Ron Fitzpatrick or 1197 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:25,000 Speaker 1: Dwayne Haskins. He runs like a cornerback. He's a gun 1198 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,040 Speaker 1: of an arm. He should be playing on the team 1199 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,600 Speaker 1: that needs a quarterback right now. Like oh, I don't 1200 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:32,399 Speaker 1: know Detroit. He's definitely better than Mason Rudolph. I could 1201 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:34,560 Speaker 1: go on and on, but here we are. I feel 1202 00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:36,759 Speaker 1: like Jay's deal with the NFL will not last two years. 1203 00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 1: He's taken too many l's. It's being nothing but egglessness 1204 00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:41,400 Speaker 1: for him since he announced this. 1205 00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:45,440 Speaker 2: I hope for the best for all parties involved. Yeah. 1206 00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:48,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, at least the one thing that came to this, 1207 00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:50,160 Speaker 1: and I don't expect anyone in the backtrack or say 1208 00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:52,319 Speaker 1: they were wrong, because it's just not what people do. 1209 00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:54,359 Speaker 2: But the one thing that came to this does seem 1210 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:54,759 Speaker 2: to be that. 1211 00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:58,160 Speaker 1: Jay Z actually did want to get him a job. 1212 00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:01,120 Speaker 1: You know, at least if the rumors are true. He's 1213 00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:04,359 Speaker 1: not talking obviously, so maybe it's all bullshit. But if 1214 00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:06,799 Speaker 1: it's true that he's the part of the reason that 1215 00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:11,440 Speaker 1: Goodell felt pressured in the you know, making this work, 1216 00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:15,680 Speaker 1: trying to give get calling the Kaepernick An opportunity, then 1217 00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:17,560 Speaker 1: I mean that kind of proves a lot of people 1218 00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 1: what they said about Jay was a little presumptuous. Calling 1219 00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:25,560 Speaker 1: the audible was the next podcast ev he says, I 1220 00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 1: it wasn't the armies that made you sick, it was 1221 00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:30,120 Speaker 1: the hate in your heart, They got the meats. 1222 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:32,000 Speaker 2: Can't wait to see your Christmas present. 1223 00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:36,600 Speaker 3: Gonna think around, she gonna get you, she gonna see 1224 00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:37,480 Speaker 3: you an obvious plushy. 1225 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:40,320 Speaker 1: Sometimes I feel like Ev thinks I'm Henry. You know, 1226 00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:44,600 Speaker 1: it's like you like, do you hate me as well? 1227 00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:45,120 Speaker 2: Is that what? 1228 00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:47,960 Speaker 1: I'm the Henry of this show? You just keep watching 1229 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:51,279 Speaker 1: helping I die? Will you eat Chick fil A? Once 1230 00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:56,440 Speaker 1: they stopped donating to homophobic charities? Yes, this is what 1231 00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:59,279 Speaker 1: I've been waiting on. No, I'm never going back or 1232 00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:02,600 Speaker 1: I never stopped stop em Seventy six percent of the 1233 00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:04,920 Speaker 1: audists never stop eating there at least y'all honest? 1234 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:05,839 Speaker 3: Uh. 1235 00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,080 Speaker 1: Nineteen cent says no, I'm never going back, and six 1236 00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:10,320 Speaker 1: percent said yes, That's why I've. 1237 00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:11,000 Speaker 2: Been waiting on. Y'all. 1238 00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:14,000 Speaker 1: Keep wondering what number of people are they really hoping 1239 00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:19,360 Speaker 1: to like to get by not contributing to the charities. 1240 00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:22,200 Speaker 1: At this point, I feel like it can't be a 1241 00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:26,880 Speaker 1: majority of people, because they continue to do great business 1242 00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:31,480 Speaker 1: without without you know, coming off of them charities. 1243 00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:33,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, just they just try to being protested.

So this is just like two 1250 00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:48,799 Speaker 1: years ago when they said they were gonna stop, and 1251 00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:50,600 Speaker 1: then so and asked them again. They was like, well, 1252 00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:54,359 Speaker 1: we didn't say we would stop stop. Like what AMM says, 1253 00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:56,360 Speaker 1: I need a fourth choice of going back after the 1254 00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 1: election because they're donating the Trumps campaign.

Now, they may choose to 1426 01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:43,160 Speaker 1: reject these things, but yelling at them wasn't gonna make 1427 01:04:43,200 --> 01:04:48,160 Speaker 1: them accept them anymore. And not yelling at them doesn't 1428 01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:51,480 Speaker 1: mean they're right. And so I just appreciate that. That's 1429 01:04:51,520 --> 01:04:53,240 Speaker 1: the kind of vibe that I try to cultivate. 1430 01:04:53,280 --> 01:04:54,160 Speaker 2: I try not to. 1431 01:04:54,760 --> 01:04:56,760 Speaker 1: We have had a few shows that turn into like, 1432 01:04:57,600 --> 01:05:01,880 Speaker 1: you know, pretty passionate back and forth with people, but 1433 01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:02,800 Speaker 1: I try. 1434 01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:07,160 Speaker 2: Not to do that on purpose.

And I think 2095 01:34:58,000 --> 01:35:02,640 Speaker 1: parents are not stay they will, you know, immovable, immutable 2096 01:35:02,680 --> 01:35:04,720 Speaker 1: beings the way that we feel when their kids when 2097 01:35:04,760 --> 01:35:05,320 Speaker 1: we're kids. 2098 01:35:05,520 --> 01:35:08,439 Speaker 2: But the truth is they're learning too and as they 2099 01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:09,680 Speaker 2: get better at parenting us. 2100 01:35:09,720 --> 01:35:12,240 Speaker 1: They get more research and get more time to learn 2101 01:35:12,680 --> 01:35:14,960 Speaker 1: and undo and unwork a lot of the harm that 2102 01:35:15,000 --> 01:35:15,719 Speaker 1: they've absorbed. 2103 01:35:16,240 --> 01:35:18,839 Speaker 2: Hopefully they use that to become better at parenting. 2104 01:35:19,520 --> 01:35:23,479 Speaker 1: And it means a lot to me that you that, 2105 01:35:24,439 --> 01:35:27,160 Speaker 1: you know, you said that it was me talking about 2106 01:35:27,600 --> 01:35:29,400 Speaker 1: how my dad used to sit down and talk to 2107 01:35:29,520 --> 01:35:31,439 Speaker 1: us that did that. 2108 01:35:31,800 --> 01:35:34,400 Speaker 2: And you're not the only person. Like someone else hit 2109 01:35:34,439 --> 01:35:37,320 Speaker 2: me up on Instagram and told me a very similar 2110 01:35:37,439 --> 01:35:39,880 Speaker 2: story and said that, you know, at one point they 2111 01:35:39,920 --> 01:35:42,960 Speaker 2: almost lost custody of their kids, like they had to 2112 01:35:43,120 --> 01:35:46,280 Speaker 2: rebuild how they think of parenting from the ground up. 2113 01:35:46,439 --> 01:35:49,479 Speaker 1: Correct, because the ship that we are taught and that 2114 01:35:49,600 --> 01:35:53,000 Speaker 1: has passed down to us. If we don't break these cycles, 2115 01:35:53,160 --> 01:35:57,040 Speaker 1: we're actually putting our kids in worse situations. And these 2116 01:35:57,080 --> 01:36:00,280 Speaker 1: are black children, and these black children already have the 2117 01:36:00,360 --> 01:36:02,680 Speaker 1: world against them, and the last place they need to 2118 01:36:02,720 --> 01:36:05,160 Speaker 1: feel like that is at the house. You know, the 2119 01:36:05,280 --> 01:36:07,200 Speaker 1: last person they need to feel isn't on their side 2120 01:36:07,280 --> 01:36:08,400 Speaker 1: is the person that's in charge. 2121 01:36:08,280 --> 01:36:09,000 Speaker 2: Of protecting them. 2122 01:36:09,400 --> 01:36:11,640 Speaker 1: Now, I know it's probably easier said than done, and 2123 01:36:11,720 --> 01:36:14,640 Speaker 1: I understand that corporal punishment is probably a shortcut for 2124 01:36:14,800 --> 01:36:17,400 Speaker 1: a lot of parents, you know, And I'm not gonna 2125 01:36:17,600 --> 01:36:20,240 Speaker 1: I'm trying my best not to sound mean. 2126 01:36:19,800 --> 01:36:21,920 Speaker 2: And judgment or and call people like you lazy and 2127 01:36:22,000 --> 01:36:22,439 Speaker 2: all the shit. 2128 01:36:22,920 --> 01:36:26,320 Speaker 1: I think when you're taught something you in a lot 2129 01:36:26,360 --> 01:36:29,880 Speaker 1: of cases, you don't recognize it's wrong until until it's 2130 01:36:29,920 --> 01:36:32,880 Speaker 1: too late, you know. But if you're listening to the 2131 01:36:32,960 --> 01:36:35,080 Speaker 1: sound of my voice, it's not too late. If you 2132 01:36:35,200 --> 01:36:37,080 Speaker 1: have kids, it's not too late. 2133 01:36:37,040 --> 01:36:39,400 Speaker 2: To reform how you deal with your children. 2134 01:36:39,680 --> 01:36:42,759 Speaker 1: It's not too late to unteach yourself and thereby unteach 2135 01:36:42,840 --> 01:36:45,640 Speaker 1: your kids, you know, because that's the other thing. Your 2136 01:36:45,720 --> 01:36:47,519 Speaker 1: kids gonna go to school and how they're gonna solve 2137 01:36:47,560 --> 01:36:51,400 Speaker 1: their problems with violence. See, we don't talk about that 2138 01:36:51,520 --> 01:36:53,599 Speaker 1: part of We talk about how we're gonna keep them 2139 01:36:53,640 --> 01:36:56,479 Speaker 1: in line with violence. But I'm also teaching them that 2140 01:36:56,680 --> 01:36:59,400 Speaker 1: you can control the world through your violence. And so 2141 01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:01,240 Speaker 1: when they go the school and they have a disagreement 2142 01:37:01,280 --> 01:37:03,880 Speaker 1: with a classmate and they get violent, well, then what 2143 01:37:04,040 --> 01:37:06,240 Speaker 1: is that inviting into that kid's life in the prison, 2144 01:37:06,600 --> 01:37:09,600 Speaker 1: the school, the prison pipeline a black child, normally, what 2145 01:37:09,680 --> 01:37:12,920 Speaker 1: are we inviting into that life? What authority, what punishment? 2146 01:37:13,320 --> 01:37:16,160 Speaker 1: What risk are you putting a child at so, and 2147 01:37:16,240 --> 01:37:17,880 Speaker 1: I'm not saying this is a lecture of us. I'm 2148 01:37:17,920 --> 01:37:20,360 Speaker 1: saying this in general, just like I want people to 2149 01:37:20,400 --> 01:37:22,599 Speaker 1: be thinking about this shit because we can break these cycles. 2150 01:37:22,760 --> 01:37:26,240 Speaker 1: There's no there's no need for us to continue to 2151 01:37:26,360 --> 01:37:29,720 Speaker 1: allow this. And we know it doesn't come from a 2152 01:37:29,880 --> 01:37:33,000 Speaker 1: positive place as far as how we as a as 2153 01:37:33,040 --> 01:37:35,639 Speaker 1: a as a race received these. 2154 01:37:35,600 --> 01:37:38,720 Speaker 2: Lessons on how this is how you discipline someone. So 2155 01:37:40,040 --> 01:37:42,960 Speaker 2: I love these stories, man, I really do. I don't 2156 01:37:42,960 --> 01:37:43,720 Speaker 2: get tired of them. 2157 01:37:43,720 --> 01:37:47,240 Speaker 1: And I understand that it's a lot because you have 2158 01:37:47,320 --> 01:37:49,120 Speaker 1: to be vulnerable to even admit you are wrong, and 2159 01:37:49,200 --> 01:37:51,160 Speaker 1: nobody likes admitting there wrong anymore. 2160 01:37:51,360 --> 01:37:53,920 Speaker 3: No, right, No, we live in society, well people don't 2161 01:37:54,040 --> 01:37:56,280 Speaker 3: like to do that. And the way I feel is 2162 01:37:56,479 --> 01:37:59,160 Speaker 3: every day is a day to get it right. And 2163 01:37:59,640 --> 01:38:01,479 Speaker 3: a lot of people don't view the world like that. 2164 01:38:01,800 --> 01:38:04,200 Speaker 3: But everybody fucked up, and everybody's flawed in some way, 2165 01:38:04,240 --> 01:38:06,760 Speaker 3: shape from a fashion, but every day it's a day 2166 01:38:07,040 --> 01:38:10,360 Speaker 3: to get it right. So you decided today was today 2167 01:38:10,520 --> 01:38:13,120 Speaker 3: that I'm going to get it right. And the thing 2168 01:38:13,360 --> 01:38:15,560 Speaker 3: is it's a slow process, and nobody wants to go 2169 01:38:15,640 --> 01:38:17,280 Speaker 3: through the slow process. So, like you said, a lot 2170 01:38:17,280 --> 01:38:20,400 Speaker 3: of people use still struck cuts, and I know we 2171 01:38:20,560 --> 01:38:23,280 Speaker 3: we laugh and joke at your dad about about how 2172 01:38:23,320 --> 01:38:25,120 Speaker 3: he talks and things like that, you know, because as 2173 01:38:25,120 --> 01:38:26,559 Speaker 3: a kid, you're like, oh my god, I'm boyd to death. 2174 01:38:26,640 --> 01:38:29,519 Speaker 3: But actually they're listening. They might that's the thing. Children 2175 01:38:29,520 --> 01:38:31,800 Speaker 3: are actually listening. Adults look at their faces and go, 2176 01:38:31,880 --> 01:38:33,800 Speaker 3: are you even listening to me? They are listening. Just 2177 01:38:33,960 --> 01:38:35,840 Speaker 3: just just let them make their faces, let them do 2178 01:38:35,960 --> 01:38:36,280 Speaker 3: their thing. 2179 01:38:36,479 --> 01:38:38,800 Speaker 1: Well, they're listening even when they don't know they're listening, 2180 01:38:38,840 --> 01:38:41,479 Speaker 1: because I know, I know shit that my parents told 2181 01:38:41,520 --> 01:38:44,000 Speaker 1: me when I was like, I ain't listening to that shit, 2182 01:38:44,120 --> 01:38:46,040 Speaker 1: and then now as an adult, I'm like, I remember 2183 01:38:46,040 --> 01:38:46,920 Speaker 1: when they told me that shit. 2184 01:38:47,040 --> 01:38:48,519 Speaker 2: That's exactly what came to pass. 2185 01:38:48,600 --> 01:38:52,160 Speaker 1: You know, like you're always passing down knowledge, but you 2186 01:38:52,280 --> 01:38:55,600 Speaker 1: know you're also passing down how you resolve situations. And 2187 01:38:55,920 --> 01:38:57,519 Speaker 1: you know, one of the ways we pass that down 2188 01:38:57,640 --> 01:38:59,600 Speaker 1: is with that physical violence. And then your kid has 2189 01:38:59,680 --> 01:39:01,680 Speaker 1: to un work that, and I work that. And I 2190 01:39:01,760 --> 01:39:04,559 Speaker 1: feel like the main responsibility we had at each generation 2191 01:39:05,080 --> 01:39:07,120 Speaker 1: is to do more right by them than what was 2192 01:39:07,200 --> 01:39:10,680 Speaker 1: done by us, you know what I'm saying, And so everyone. 2193 01:39:10,479 --> 01:39:12,439 Speaker 2: And that should be. Your parents should want you to 2194 01:39:12,520 --> 01:39:14,960 Speaker 2: be better, and you should want your child to be 2195 01:39:15,080 --> 01:39:15,720 Speaker 2: better than you are. 2196 01:39:16,000 --> 01:39:18,600 Speaker 1: That's the whole point. And it's very difficult in this 2197 01:39:18,800 --> 01:39:23,000 Speaker 1: rigged fucking system, this rigged country. When it comes to blackness, 2198 01:39:23,040 --> 01:39:26,560 Speaker 1: it's so fucking it's such a head trip. You know, 2199 01:39:26,840 --> 01:39:29,559 Speaker 1: they got us tricked into thinking we saving each other 2200 01:39:29,640 --> 01:39:31,479 Speaker 1: by hitting each other, you know what I'm saying, Like, 2201 01:39:31,600 --> 01:39:34,360 Speaker 1: they got us tricked into thinking that shit. But it's 2202 01:39:34,439 --> 01:39:37,519 Speaker 1: not like but in order to break the cycle now, 2203 01:39:37,640 --> 01:39:39,960 Speaker 1: we have to recognize the progress that we've made as 2204 01:39:39,960 --> 01:39:43,080 Speaker 1: a country and as a race to say maybe the 2205 01:39:43,200 --> 01:39:44,559 Speaker 1: old ways aren't the best. 2206 01:39:44,400 --> 01:39:45,880 Speaker 2: Ways, right. 2207 01:39:46,000 --> 01:39:48,000 Speaker 3: And the thing is, you know when you say that, 2208 01:39:48,120 --> 01:39:50,360 Speaker 3: people go, well, you're just not disciplining your children.

But a lot of this 2375 01:47:11,680 --> 01:47:13,880 Speaker 1: stuff we see now with a lot of black people 2376 01:47:14,000 --> 01:47:19,960 Speaker 1: kind of trying to I don't know what the best 2377 01:47:20,000 --> 01:47:22,280 Speaker 1: word is for. I don't want to say imitate white 2378 01:47:22,320 --> 01:47:25,400 Speaker 1: women in this way, but like kind of embrace this 2379 01:47:25,560 --> 01:47:30,160 Speaker 1: definition of we're gonna push all the problematic jokes and 2380 01:47:30,200 --> 01:47:33,320 Speaker 1: the problematic tropes and the we're not you know, and 2381 01:47:33,439 --> 01:47:36,040 Speaker 1: the like trying to push that out of the community, 2382 01:47:36,080 --> 01:47:39,400 Speaker 1: which I respect and I understand, but I feel like 2383 01:47:39,560 --> 01:47:41,639 Speaker 1: they have an uphill bat on their hands because unlike 2384 01:47:41,680 --> 01:47:45,200 Speaker 1: white people, we actually have had it hard. So there's 2385 01:47:45,280 --> 01:47:47,640 Speaker 1: like a right of passage of we make fun at 2386 01:47:47,680 --> 01:47:49,800 Speaker 1: our plight, so we get to make fun of everyone's plight, 2387 01:47:49,840 --> 01:47:52,360 Speaker 1: and of course everyone's finding out that that's. 2388 01:47:52,280 --> 01:47:53,400 Speaker 2: Not necessarily true. 2389 01:47:53,439 --> 01:47:55,479 Speaker 1: I mean, look at Dave Chappelle in the response that 2390 01:47:55,520 --> 01:47:58,639 Speaker 1: he's been receiving.

But I feel like that might be one 2393 01:48:02,760 --> 01:48:05,240 Speaker 1: of the reasons for the rebellious spirit of certain black 2394 01:48:05,320 --> 01:48:12,960 Speaker 1: comedians is that forever before recently it being black and 2395 01:48:13,080 --> 01:48:16,320 Speaker 1: oppressed was good enough to be able to comment on anything, 2396 01:48:16,520 --> 01:48:20,439 Speaker 1: anything and make fun of anyone and everybody. And now 2397 01:48:20,760 --> 01:48:26,719 Speaker 1: because we're getting into the depth, the deep with levels 2398 01:48:26,760 --> 01:48:31,320 Speaker 1: of privilege and intersectional feminism and stuff. Now that we're 2399 01:48:31,320 --> 01:48:33,680 Speaker 1: getting into that, you're having people be like, well, hold up, 2400 01:48:34,000 --> 01:48:38,000 Speaker 1: you're making fun of gay people, you're not gay, and 2401 01:48:38,240 --> 01:48:40,880 Speaker 1: black people are being like, but I am black. So 2402 01:48:41,600 --> 01:48:43,479 Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, but you don't get to make that joke. 2403 01:48:43,520 --> 01:48:45,680 Speaker 1: You're black, but you're not gay. And so now we're 2404 01:48:45,680 --> 01:48:48,800 Speaker 1: getting into these like into the weeds of it, which 2405 01:48:48,880 --> 01:48:54,240 Speaker 1: is what progression is about everything that people think take 2406 01:48:54,320 --> 01:48:56,840 Speaker 1: for granted.
