She alluded to some housing policy 33 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 7: when she did her economic rollout in North Carolina. What 34 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 7: did you make of the specific points that she made 35 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 7: about housing? 36 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 3: Because so many people in our community. 37 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 7: Generationally, we've had the battle redline communities. Now we're battling 38 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 7: challenges with banking and financing. I know in Georgia that's 39 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 7: a big issue. What did you make of her policy 40 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 7: points and what advice might you offer when it comes 41 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 7: to home ownership and the policy that she builds around now. 42 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 8: She wrote them. 43 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 4: On that list of her I had a little input 44 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 4: on that. 45 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 5: I did have some input in it. 46 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 4: What we are talking about is making sure that we 47 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 4: can have home ownership we have for so long. You 48 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 4: said it right, whether it be redlining, whether it be 49 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 4: the increasing rents. What we know is that housing is 50 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 4: a crisis in this country, but it is especially a 51 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 4: crisis in core communities and communities like ours. What are 52 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 4: you going to hear is how we're going to address 53 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 4: down payment assistance. What you're going to hear is how 54 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 4: we can keep people in their homes. What you're going 55 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 4: to hear is we have started programs. We have actually 56 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 4: sued appraisers and they have now finally decided that they're 57 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,239 Speaker 4: going to change the way they appraise properties in our neighborhoods. 58 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 4: We are looking at how we can make more people 59 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 4: of color red it worthy by not counting double basically 60 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 4: for student loan, bent credit card. So we are finding 61 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 4: ways to make an easier process. But in the meantime, 62 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 4: what we are doing is we are also making it 63 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 4: easier for people to live in housing that we have 64 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 4: by assisting with more resources for rent, more resources for 65 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 4: public housing. 66 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 5: And the one thing that I'm really, really very. 67 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 4: Proud of, and she probably won't mention it, but I 68 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 4: think that you need to know. When I first came 69 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 4: to HUD, if you had a criminal record, you could 70 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 4: not live in public houses. 71 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 5: We changed that. Yes, I the way out the door, 72 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 5: because we have. 73 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 6: Secretary of Judge, like, that's something that y'all should be 74 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 6: making billboards about. 75 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 5: We should, but you know, sometimes you can't tell people 76 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 5: what you do it until it's done. 77 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 4: But now it's done, and so we're telling people because 78 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 4: it brings families together. If people come out of out 79 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 4: of incarcerated situations and they have no place to go, 80 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 4: the rate of citivism goes up really, really hoigh. So 81 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 4: we're trying to do away with that. But we are 82 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 4: working very diligently, and you will see something I don't 83 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 4: want to I don't want to preempt her speech, but 84 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 4: you are going to see that she is serious about 85 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 4: housing in this country, whether it's private equity people coming 86 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 4: in and buying houses up in our community. They literally 87 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 4: told me that they will buy a house in six minutes. 88 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 4: They'll make a decision to come into my neighborhood and 89 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 4: buy a house in six minutes. They put a few 90 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 4: thousand dollars in it, They raise the rent so that 91 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 4: the people who live there can't live there anymore. So 92 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 4: we're dealing with those issues. 93 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 6: So her speech tomorrow is going to be heavy on 94 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 6: policy because that's one of the things that you know. 95 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 6: Listeners were calling in the breakfast club this week saying 96 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 6: that they don't feel like they're hearing enough policy talk 97 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 6: here at the DNC. So is she going to focus 98 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 6: on that heavy Tomorrow? 99 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 4: She is going to focus on policy and she is 100 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 4: going to address housing. Wow, not as in depth as 101 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 4: I have, but you will know that it is a priority. 102 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 5: And it is a priority. 103 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 3: I you know. 104 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 2: One of the things, Misspecial, I think is so important 105 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 2: is a black woman is running for president.

You've seen white judges sit up there at 177 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:31,119 Speaker 8: the bench and say, if it wasn't for your father, right, 178 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 8: I would have you in the slammer, because they have 179 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,199 Speaker 8: personal relationship and we don't criminalize that when they have 180 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 8: personal relationship. 181 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 6: Judges that kind of humanity when they see us though, 182 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 6: because a lot of times you see those black judges 183 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 6: understand they don't have that kind of. 184 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 7: Public defenders any more, public defenders to be elevated. So 185 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 7: often we pay an outsize attention to the Supreme Court, 186 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 7: but the lower courts are also incredibly impactful, specifically specifically 187 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 7: when it comes to us in a very unforgiving criminal 188 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 7: justice system.

Over two hundred judges, 207 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 9: fifty nine of them may have been black. Now black 208 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 9: people and I'm doing my black man only represent about. 209 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 10: Thirteen percent of the populace. 210 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 9: Fifty nine over that's over twenty five percent of the 211 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 9: judges he has appointed that have been plagued. 212 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 10: This is exactly exactly. 213 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 7: Trump appointed over two hundred white men the lifetime appointments 214 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 7: on the federal bench. 215 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 10: That's that's exactly right. But when you think about it, 216 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 10: he's appointed as. 217 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 9: The secretary said, more black women to the Pelic Court 218 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 9: than all presidents combined. And so we got to give 219 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 9: him credits, right, and we got to say there's still 220 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,079 Speaker 9: more work to do. Yes, But when you think about 221 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 9: this administration, what they have done is that they have 222 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 9: transformed things. They even changed the political process. Right all 223 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 9: of my life, we have started the political process in Iowa. 224 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 10: New Hampshire. And ain't nothing wrong with Ivory in New Hampshire. 225 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 10: I love him. 226 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 9: Good Democrats in that state, but been but not very 227 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 9: many of us that live in those states. 228 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 10: But this president and this Vice president said, we got 229 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 10: to change that. 230 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 9: If we keep saying that black folks make up the 231 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 9: heart and the soul in the backbone of the Democratic Party, 232 00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 9: then why are they relegated to the back of the 233 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 9: bus to choose the next president instead of being at 234 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 9: the front of us. And that's why Joe Biden, Kamala 235 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,559 Speaker 9: Harris and yours truly at the DNC changed the schedule. 236 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 9: We moved South Carolina to be the first the state 237 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 9: where forty percent of enslaved people came through the port 238 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 9: of Charleston, which exactly where many of their progeny pick cotton. 239 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 9: Now are the first people to pick the most powerful 240 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 9: person on the face of the earth. And then he 241 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 9: added Georgia, and he added Michigan, and he moved up Nevada, 242 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 9: and as a result of that, for the first time 243 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 9: in American history, four out of the five early states 244 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 9: were led by black women. 245 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 2: Now, Jamison, here's the only thing.

Compounded by the fact 407 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 7: that the donor base is largely white and male.
