She 347 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 2: was saying mean stuff about him, and so he decided 348 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 2: not to pay for the date, and I thought, wow, 349 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 2: that is a controversial thing to do.

Unless 509 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 2: they cast Naomi Harris, Tia Dama in the Powers of 510 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 2: the Caribbean or Winnie Mandela in Long Walk to Freedom. 511 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 2: I really can't see anyone who'd be better suited for 512 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 2: the role and put. 513 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 3: A picture of I guess Naomi Harris or something. I 514 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 3: don't know. 515 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 2: Oh, Lapita as Storm, I don't know. Man Like, I'm 516 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 2: not against it. I think too many people were shitting 517 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 2: on it. Some people were saying that Vixen should be 518 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 2: like somebody she plays. Actually, what's funny. We had this 519 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 2: conversation yesterday on sport Movie Reviews. I talked to Mike 520 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 2: Lawrence of Nerd of our podcast. He's had lining The 521 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 2: Caroline seven thirty on Sunday.

Of course I will accept loke. I 528 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 2: think Agela Baste should have been Storm. I will always 529 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 2: think this. I seen her the Oscars, the. 530 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 3: Other day, she could still be Storm. 531 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 6: She sure cash she could still be Storm because her 532 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 6: body was living at everybody in that red dress. 533 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 3: She was killing it. Johnny Gill was even like, my mind, yes, 534 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 3: and you don't want them, but uh, I could be 535 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 3: cool with Lapeter being Storm, Like, uh, we're coming from 536 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 3: Holly Barry.

You know, 552 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 2: people were really on some like she could never do it. 553 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 2: It's like, guys, come on, let's be honest. Okay, Holly 554 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 2: Berry did this ship. But look at that picture. Man, 555 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 2: it's pretty cool. Like they photoshop the mohawk version. They 556 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,200 Speaker 2: drew in the draw and they drew like a storm. 557 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 2: If she would have had short hair like it could 558 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 2: be cool. 559 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:04,360 Speaker 4: Man. 560 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 2: All right, let's move to the next The pole. The 561 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 2: poll was she twelve years of Slave had won Oscar 562 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 2: for Best Film. Yes, it was the best film. Forty 563 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 2: five percent of people think it was the best film. No, 564 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 2: there were better, better films. Five percent of people think 565 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 2: there were better films than for the Slave. And I 566 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 2: didn't see any of those films. Forty nine percent of people, 567 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 2: basically half our audience didn't see any of the Oscar 568 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 2: films this year. 569 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 4: And that's what most people do. 570 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 6: They'll watch it just, you know, just because it's on, 571 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 6: but most people don't follow it and could care less. 572 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 2: Nick ju right Son. I was one of the people 573 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 2: supporting W. Kmal Bells where is Fruitville hashtag? I'm totally 574 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 2: biased to see what I did there, being from the 575 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 2: Bay and living in Oscars hometown. In the Oscars hometown, however, 576 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 2: where all land on the issue is this. I didn't 577 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 2: see all of the movies, so I SI can't say 578 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 2: twelve Years was the best. It was a beautiful film 579 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 2: that was well shot, acted, edited, with many amazing performances, 580 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 2: and I'm happy at what I was upset with the 581 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 2: total Awards season shutout of Fruitvale, but I understand. I 582 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 2: don't mean to take anything away from twelve Years. Just 583 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,880 Speaker 2: trying to help further conversation about the film I saw 584 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 2: last year that I considered the best from twenty twelve. 585 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,119 Speaker 2: From what I told, the Academy doesn't really have it 586 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 2: for Sundance, and since Fruitvale was the darling of Sundance, 587 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 2: it came out very early in the year, and Ryan 588 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,200 Speaker 2: Coogler probably stopped campaigning his hard after the big prize 589 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 2: of Sundance. The Academy ignored it. Also, Lapida carinbou thanks 590 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,640 Speaker 2: for the shout out. I was having a tweeted Paloser 591 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 2: on Oscar night. I've been watching that award show since 592 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 2: my mama let me stay up late enough to see 593 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 2: the whole thing. 594 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 3: It's pretty much my favorite night of television all year. 595 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,880 Speaker 2: Twitter allowed me to watch it with my friends, even 596 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:49,879 Speaker 2: though on three thousand miles away and at the end 597 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 2: of the day, Hey Caraubu again, Oscar isn't the end 598 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 2: all be all a film recognition, But it's sucks to 599 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 2: see Fruitvale get overlooked for all the major awards this season. 600 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 2: But Michael bay Jordan is eating and Ryan Coogler is 601 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 2: on his way. Yeah, I would say this, man, Like 602 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:09,360 Speaker 2: I thought the Fruitvel thing when W. Kamal Brail brought 603 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 2: it up, I thought it was kind of fucked up 604 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:15,919 Speaker 2: because it raised the bar on twelve Years of Slave, 605 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:19,159 Speaker 2: almost as it marginalized twelve Years of Slave, as if 606 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 2: it wasn't a good movie deserving of the accolades, you know, 607 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 2: at least the tweet I saw. 608 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 4: I don't know. 609 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 2: I heard he made more tweets, so maybe he kind 610 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 2: of put it more in context. But it seemed to 611 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 2: be like on some like like like twelve Years of 612 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 2: Slave wasn't groundbreaking because it really was, you know, black director, 613 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 2: an unflinching portrayal of slavery, no white saviors in the film, 614 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 2: Like it really was not to mention well shot, well acted, 615 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 2: well written, all that stuff. Right now, that being said, 616 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 2: I didn't see Fruitval, so there's a good chance Fruitval 617 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 2: was better. I also think any movie could have been 618 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 2: better than this, Like, it's not necessarily that these other 619 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 2: movies weren't better. And this is what I was saying 620 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 2: about Lapeta. Part of this is the pr thing. Part 621 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 2: of this is telling the narrative and having a story. 622 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 2: Every year, this happens with the Oscars. They want the 623 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 2: winner to have a story. They don't just want to 624 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 2: give it to quote unquote the best film. 625 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 4: It has to be. 626 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 2: Oh, not only did this win, but it was important 627 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 2: because he tells a story about a gay person. 628 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 4: And this new triumph. Yeah. 629 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 2: Like, even with Lapita, what I was trying to say 630 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,719 Speaker 2: was I'm not taking away credit from her performance as 631 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 2: an actress, but she won that award when she won 632 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 2: the hearts and minds of all those people showing up 633 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 2: at other award shows. It wasn't the it wasn't just 634 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 2: her performance. I read articles, maybe I'll read it tomorrow 635 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 2: on the show. There was an article I read where 636 00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 2: someone was like, I picked Jennifer Lawrence, but I'm switching 637 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 2: it to La Peter and here's why. And it was 638 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 2: basically all anecdotal bullshit. Why was Jennifer Lawrence the darling 639 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 2: of the media and everyone picking. 640 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 3: Her because they like her. 641 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 2: She goes award show, she trips and falls, and she's 642 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 2: just an average person. She does middle fingers to the 643 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 2: camera sometimes like oh, she's just so cute and the door. Well, 644 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 2: she's just such a around the way girl who just 645 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 2: happens to be a talented actress and the prettiest chick 646 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 2: at the ball, right, But that's more of a pr thing, 647 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 2: like it gives her an angle. She'll say something in 648 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 2: an interview or something with the media and people go, 649 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 2: oh my god, she's adorable. 650 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 3: And that was going on for about a year. Yeah, 651 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 3: like I saw I saw American Hustle. She was not 652 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 3: that good in it, you know. 653 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 2: Likefortunately, to me, she was the probably the weakest part 654 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 2: of the movie other than Bradley Cooper, who was just 655 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 2: completely out of his depth. Now, I'm not saying she's 656 00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 2: a bad actress. I think she's a great actress. But 657 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 2: the way people talk about her in that role, I'm like, 658 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 2: did y'all watch the movie? Christen Bell and Amy Adams 659 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 2: are the only thing you walk away from that movie 660 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 2: going goddamn, that's it. Those are the only two people 661 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 2: you walk out of there and go they put their 662 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 2: foot in it. Everybody else is just kind of like, eh, eh, 663 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 2: you know, you didn't know it in luisey k I liked. 664 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 4: But the point. 665 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 2: But the point being, I think that Hollywood and especially 666 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 2: the Oscars are more about the story they can tell 667 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 2: about the winner, not not the winner, you know what 668 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 2: I'm saying, Not what was the best, but what story 669 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 2: can we tell? 670 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 5: What? 671 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 4: You know, once they win? How can we spend this off? 672 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 4: How can we you know? Basically? 673 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 6: And I think that the reason that they most likely 674 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 6: do that is because if you can spin these things 675 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 6: off into other happy stories. 676 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 4: And everybody's talking about the. 677 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,959 Speaker 6: Oscar for days, sometimes weeks, right, all these stink pieces 678 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 6: after it ends and things like that. It's just something 679 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 6: to keep the Oscar and of the Oscar round, to 680 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 6: get people excited about next year. 681 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 2: And I'm one hundred percent positive. I don't care what 682 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 2: critics say. I have friends that are critics, and they 683 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 2: swear this is what happened. Fruitvel came out too early. 684 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 2: I don't give a fuck what they say. 685 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:12,880 Speaker 4: Yes it is. 686 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 3: If Fruitveil would have came out in Decemar, it would 687 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 3: have won everything. 688 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 2: That's my opinion, because I think its story is more 689 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 2: powerful because it's current, like you know what I mean, 690 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 2: Like I think twelve Years is powerful, but it also 691 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 2: benefited from coming out a little bit later, right around 692 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 2: that summer peak of movies. And I think that matters. 693 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 2: Also Brad Pitt is involved and some of that stuff. 694 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 2: I think that shit matters. Yeah, And uh, people are 695 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 2: gonna pretend like it doesn't. But the fact that Fruitvale 696 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 2: wasn't up for nothing really didn't win shit. Come on, 697 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 2: it matters, Let's be honest. 698 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 1: It does. 699 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 6: And also what you said about the Oscar is true 700 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 6: because for me and Roger watch a lot of movies, 701 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 6: and right around October November, you'll start seeing tons of 702 00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 6: dramatic quote unquote to jerker movies because they're always aiming 703 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 6: for you know that, they're they're they're sad love stories, 704 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,280 Speaker 6: they're tragedies. 705 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 4: All kinds of things like that. And around that time 706 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 4: of the year is when you get a bunt rush 707 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 4: of these uh rush, bunt rush.

Yes, 1513 01:10:12,240 --> 01:10:15,599 Speaker 2: parents are obligated, but kids shouldn't be entitled. No, parents 1514 01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:19,840 Speaker 2: don't have to pay for your college education. This was 1515 01:10:19,880 --> 01:10:22,400 Speaker 2: sparked by you know, obviously that girl who was suing 1516 01:10:22,439 --> 01:10:24,160 Speaker 2: their parents and stuff, but also. 1517 01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:26,559 Speaker 3: My man on Twitter. 1518 01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:29,600 Speaker 2: I think that was the Underscore Lion or something like that. 1519 01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:32,880 Speaker 2: He was talking to one of our listeners about this idea. 1520 01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:35,960 Speaker 2: We kind of got tagged in it, and I was like, 1521 01:10:36,240 --> 01:10:38,640 Speaker 2: you know, until I like I think it might be 1522 01:10:38,680 --> 01:10:40,840 Speaker 2: a class thing or something. I don't know, But until 1523 01:10:40,880 --> 01:10:44,160 Speaker 2: I got out of the house, I didn't know there 1524 01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:47,720 Speaker 2: were parents who felt that it was their responsibility to 1525 01:10:47,800 --> 01:10:49,320 Speaker 2: pay for that kids college education. 1526 01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:52,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think for me. 1527 01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:56,760 Speaker 6: It wasn't an option. Like for me, it just was 1528 01:10:56,880 --> 01:10:58,400 Speaker 6: an option. My mom was like, Okay, you go, you 1529 01:10:58,520 --> 01:11:01,120 Speaker 6: better get grants of scholarship. I can't afford to pay 1530 01:11:01,160 --> 01:11:03,320 Speaker 6: for shit. And I ain't gonna pay for shit, you know. 1531 01:11:03,439 --> 01:11:05,160 Speaker 6: That's why I worked while I was at school and 1532 01:11:05,240 --> 01:11:07,960 Speaker 6: things like that. I have full time job working, you know, 1533 01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:09,840 Speaker 6: they had full time hours and shit like that. 1534 01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:12,519 Speaker 4: So to me, her, paying was never an option. 1535 01:11:13,080 --> 01:11:15,920 Speaker 6: And I think for me, I've always wanted to be independent, 1536 01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:18,400 Speaker 6: and so for me it's just one of those things 1537 01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:22,000 Speaker 6: where I it wasn't an option. And I never really 1538 01:11:22,040 --> 01:11:24,519 Speaker 6: looked at look to her as far as helping it 1539 01:11:24,600 --> 01:11:27,679 Speaker 6: from that standpoint. And I think for a lot of parents, 1540 01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:31,000 Speaker 6: they had to fight and struggle, and they like I 1541 01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:34,320 Speaker 6: worked hard. I did what I was supposed to. I've 1542 01:11:34,360 --> 01:11:36,519 Speaker 6: gotten to a place now where I've got money. If 1543 01:11:36,600 --> 01:11:38,559 Speaker 6: my child wants to go to school, I don't want 1544 01:11:38,600 --> 01:11:40,840 Speaker 6: my child to have to fight and struggle to learn 1545 01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:43,360 Speaker 6: and bump their way through Scott College. I want my 1546 01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:46,240 Speaker 6: child to be able to just focus on school and 1547 01:11:46,320 --> 01:11:48,240 Speaker 6: that I have to focus on the finances. I completely 1548 01:11:48,360 --> 01:11:50,880 Speaker 6: understand this, but at the same point, it's one of 1549 01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:53,400 Speaker 6: those things where this is not your degree, is your 1550 01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:54,160 Speaker 6: child's degree. 1551 01:11:54,760 --> 01:11:56,280 Speaker 3: Also, I think part of this is. 1552 01:11:58,120 --> 01:12:01,840 Speaker 2: I think class related, and this is how people are 1553 01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:06,280 Speaker 2: able to build up generational wealth. True, because you are 1554 01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:12,560 Speaker 2: also mitigating the debt of a person for years, Like 1555 01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:16,800 Speaker 2: sometimes college loans can take ten twenty thirty years, may man. 1556 01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:19,880 Speaker 3: Sometimes longer than that, and so on those two. 1557 01:12:20,080 --> 01:12:22,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, imagine if you didn't have to pay back a 1558 01:12:22,600 --> 01:12:25,040 Speaker 2: college long because you never took one out and you 1559 01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:28,000 Speaker 2: got a degree that would immediately get you out to 1560 01:12:28,160 --> 01:12:29,920 Speaker 2: a like, you know, start. 1561 01:12:29,760 --> 01:12:30,400 Speaker 3: A head start. 1562 01:12:30,560 --> 01:12:32,639 Speaker 2: You can invest that money, you can save that money, 1563 01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:35,800 Speaker 2: you can spend it on other things you know that 1564 01:12:36,000 --> 01:12:41,600 Speaker 2: you didn't have to before, you know. So I do think, uh, 1565 01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:44,160 Speaker 2: the kind of person that probably feels that this is 1566 01:12:44,200 --> 01:12:47,920 Speaker 2: an obligation that they should have to do is probably 1567 01:12:47,960 --> 01:12:50,000 Speaker 2: going to get that kid off to a better head start. 1568 01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:53,479 Speaker 2: You know, in life, our parents obligated to pay for 1569 01:12:53,479 --> 01:12:56,720 Speaker 2: their children's college education. Yes, parents are obligated. A kid 1570 01:12:56,720 --> 01:13:00,680 Speaker 2: shouldn't be entitled eight percent of our part then says, no, 1571 01:13:00,840 --> 01:13:02,840 Speaker 2: parents don't have to pay for your college education. 1572 01:13:03,880 --> 01:13:06,000 Speaker 6: And I think, like you said, it is a class thing. 1573 01:13:06,080 --> 01:13:07,559 Speaker 6: I think that for like you said, for a lot 1574 01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:10,080 Speaker 6: of people, once you reach a certain class, they literally 1575 01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:14,240 Speaker 6: have the money. The average person, the average parent, even 1576 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:18,679 Speaker 6: in two incomes, don't have the money. And the way 1577 01:13:19,040 --> 01:13:23,720 Speaker 6: they revamped faster up teen hundred times, if especially if 1578 01:13:23,720 --> 01:13:27,200 Speaker 6: you have a two parent income, you don't qualify for nothing, 1579 01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:30,360 Speaker 6: you can't get any type of grants or assistance. 1580 01:13:30,439 --> 01:13:31,439 Speaker 4: That's what they don't say too. 1581 01:13:31,520 --> 01:13:34,200 Speaker 6: They keep raising that bar and making it higher and 1582 01:13:34,320 --> 01:13:37,760 Speaker 6: making it more difficult, so that the average person has 1583 01:13:37,880 --> 01:13:40,639 Speaker 6: to get loans because before shit they would have qualified 1584 01:13:40,680 --> 01:13:41,320 Speaker 6: for they don't. 1585 01:13:41,160 --> 01:13:43,680 Speaker 4: Qualify for no more. Yeah, but they'll give you a 1586 01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:45,000 Speaker 4: loan in a heartbeat. 1587 01:13:46,439 --> 01:13:50,040 Speaker 2: Ir Yallna says, not at all. Scholarships should be the 1588 01:13:50,120 --> 01:13:53,200 Speaker 2: main objective. However, if I have children, I will give 1589 01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:58,040 Speaker 2: I will I will gift him her money for a 1590 01:13:58,160 --> 01:14:02,000 Speaker 2: bility during that freshman year. If they are respectful child, 1591 01:14:02,320 --> 01:14:04,160 Speaker 2: If they are a respectful child and did the right 1592 01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:06,800 Speaker 2: thing before college, that's the gift my parents offered my 1593 01:14:06,880 --> 01:14:09,400 Speaker 2: siblings and I I can't believe that white girl thought 1594 01:14:09,479 --> 01:14:13,360 Speaker 2: she deserved a parents' money.

I mean, my background is 1757 01:22:23,520 --> 01:22:27,360 Speaker 8: I'm from another country. I'm an immigrant, so I've felt 1758 01:22:27,400 --> 01:22:29,760 Speaker 8: with it from a two different perspective. I dealt with 1759 01:22:29,880 --> 01:22:32,799 Speaker 8: it from a you know, white people, but I mostly 1760 01:22:32,880 --> 01:22:35,519 Speaker 8: dealt with it from just Americans. I think the two 1761 01:22:35,640 --> 01:22:39,840 Speaker 8: biggest things was a since I'm a Caribbean, people always 1762 01:22:39,880 --> 01:22:43,000 Speaker 8: wonder where my accent is, like every Caribbean person has 1763 01:22:43,040 --> 01:22:45,479 Speaker 8: to have an accent. And I think the second thing 1764 01:22:45,560 --> 01:22:48,000 Speaker 8: that spokes me the most is that because I'm a 1765 01:22:48,120 --> 01:22:51,719 Speaker 8: polite person, they can assume that I'm not an American citizen. 1766 01:22:52,800 --> 01:22:55,360 Speaker 8: For these guys, I'm not really sure what to say 1767 01:22:55,400 --> 01:22:58,760 Speaker 8: about them, because you know, I would I would think 1768 01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:02,200 Speaker 8: if you made it to Harvard and to graduate from Harvard, you're. 1769 01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:02,760 Speaker 1: You're the best. 1770 01:23:03,120 --> 01:23:06,280 Speaker 8: You're the best bet h that your community has to offer. 1771 01:23:06,320 --> 01:23:09,439 Speaker 8: It's probably some of the smartest intelligence people in America. 1772 01:23:09,520 --> 01:23:12,760 Speaker 8: And to be surprised that, you know, you find out 1773 01:23:12,840 --> 01:23:16,840 Speaker 8: a lot of your student body doesn't really read or 1774 01:23:16,960 --> 01:23:19,360 Speaker 8: study as much as black history as you do, and 1775 01:23:19,439 --> 01:23:21,080 Speaker 8: won't give you the benefit of the doubt. 1776 01:23:21,840 --> 01:23:23,000 Speaker 1: I don't really know what to say. 1777 01:23:24,479 --> 01:23:27,680 Speaker 8: It happens, you know, you just gotta sit back and 1778 01:23:27,840 --> 01:23:31,000 Speaker 8: choose to answer or not answer those questions.

You said, you feel 1865 01:28:10,640 --> 01:28:13,800 Speaker 5: like some of these students are and sometimes a lot 1866 01:28:13,840 --> 01:28:16,519 Speaker 5: of these issues occur because you say, there's an issue 1867 01:28:16,560 --> 01:28:20,800 Speaker 5: that we have, especially in the African American community, where 1868 01:28:20,880 --> 01:28:26,439 Speaker 5: we feel like the white man's ice is colder. My 1869 01:28:26,560 --> 01:28:29,439 Speaker 5: father talk about that all the time, and so the 1870 01:28:29,560 --> 01:28:31,920 Speaker 5: reason I was probably because I do feel like there's 1871 01:28:31,920 --> 01:28:37,400 Speaker 5: a there's a situation in our community where we have 1872 01:28:38,080 --> 01:28:44,200 Speaker 5: we're more critical of ourselves and we're more unforgiving of 1873 01:28:44,320 --> 01:28:48,080 Speaker 5: ourselves than we are others. For example, some of the 1874 01:28:48,200 --> 01:28:51,200 Speaker 5: best places for you to go as an African American 1875 01:28:51,240 --> 01:28:55,200 Speaker 5: students our HBCUs. There are many many people who graduate 1876 01:28:55,600 --> 01:28:58,920 Speaker 5: from HBCUs because to be honest, it really doesn't matter 1877 01:28:59,000 --> 01:29:01,479 Speaker 5: where you get your under grad and they go on 1878 01:29:01,600 --> 01:29:05,439 Speaker 5: to matriculate through many other universities and end up having 1879 01:29:05,479 --> 01:29:09,400 Speaker 5: people work who got their undergrads from other schools. 1880 01:29:09,080 --> 01:29:09,680 Speaker 4: Working for them. 1881 01:29:09,840 --> 01:29:13,760 Speaker 5: I remember there was one homecoming where where we had 1882 01:29:13,840 --> 01:29:17,280 Speaker 5: someone who who was who was a farmer student come 1883 01:29:17,360 --> 01:29:21,600 Speaker 5: back to my HBCU and he talked about how he 1884 01:29:21,760 --> 01:29:25,280 Speaker 5: graduated from from our school which had maybe about two 1885 01:29:25,360 --> 01:29:29,160 Speaker 5: thousand students and doing the cheapest school in the state 1886 01:29:29,280 --> 01:29:32,240 Speaker 5: to go to, and he has people who worked for 1887 01:29:32,400 --> 01:29:36,200 Speaker 5: Harvard working under him. And it's almost like and I 1888 01:29:36,240 --> 01:29:39,439 Speaker 5: almost said this, I was gonna say this too. I 1889 01:29:39,560 --> 01:29:43,000 Speaker 5: see it even with movies, where we're less tolerant of 1890 01:29:44,560 --> 01:29:50,040 Speaker 5: African American bad films than we are of Caucasian or 1891 01:29:50,120 --> 01:29:52,800 Speaker 5: other bad films, just like we would do. I mean, 1892 01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:55,479 Speaker 5: think like a man, ain't like a man. The tile 1893 01:29:55,600 --> 01:29:59,439 Speaker 5: paid movies right a long. They're not the best movies 1894 01:29:59,479 --> 01:30:01,960 Speaker 5: in the world, but they're for a niche market, and 1895 01:30:02,240 --> 01:30:04,040 Speaker 5: you know, they try to cater to them. And there's 1896 01:30:04,080 --> 01:30:07,760 Speaker 5: some good qualities in those movies, although they're not they're 1897 01:30:08,160 --> 01:30:13,880 Speaker 5: mostly D minus in lower movies. And but I've seen 1898 01:30:14,120 --> 01:30:16,639 Speaker 5: situations where I've seen Black people like, oh, this movie's 1899 01:30:16,720 --> 01:30:20,160 Speaker 5: terrible and while we're watching this, but they don't do 1900 01:30:20,400 --> 01:30:24,640 Speaker 5: that with Caucasian films, and that are bad. I mean, 1901 01:30:24,880 --> 01:30:26,639 Speaker 5: I was talking with my friend R He's like, nice 1902 01:30:28,360 --> 01:30:32,040 Speaker 5: terrible movies too, but we we can't seem to tolerate 1903 01:30:32,120 --> 01:30:34,559 Speaker 5: them a little bit more. But I want to stay 1904 01:30:34,560 --> 01:30:38,080 Speaker 5: as close as three minutes as possible. I appreciate all 1905 01:30:38,120 --> 01:30:43,120 Speaker 5: of y'all. Take care and have a good day. 1906 01:30:43,880 --> 01:30:47,880 Speaker 3: But all right, all right, A couple of things. 1907 01:30:48,000 --> 01:30:51,519 Speaker 2: One, I do think that black people are more critical 1908 01:30:51,680 --> 01:30:54,280 Speaker 2: on their own stuff a lot of times unfairly so 1909 01:30:56,160 --> 01:30:58,000 Speaker 2: I think it's kind of messed up, like what we 1910 01:30:58,240 --> 01:31:01,439 Speaker 2: do to a like I'm like, I was serious when 1911 01:31:01,439 --> 01:31:06,040 Speaker 2: I said that during the Oscars el than those guys 1912 01:31:06,080 --> 01:31:10,960 Speaker 2: eating pizza cute.

It's so funny. If fucking 1915 01:31:17,080 --> 01:31:19,000 Speaker 2: Chris Tucker would have walked from behind that b to 1916 01:31:19,080 --> 01:31:22,320 Speaker 2: yourward stage with some fucking pizza, Nigga. 1917 01:31:23,880 --> 01:31:24,280 Speaker 4: Hell up? 1918 01:31:24,920 --> 01:31:27,920 Speaker 2: This why I don't watch BET, Just why I don't 1919 01:31:27,920 --> 01:31:30,880 Speaker 2: even fuck with that? Look, look at the shatto ass, 1920 01:31:31,960 --> 01:31:32,719 Speaker 2: get some pizza? 1921 01:31:33,240 --> 01:31:33,519 Speaker 4: See this? 1922 01:31:33,600 --> 01:31:34,680 Speaker 3: Why like that? 1923 01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:35,760 Speaker 1: Like that? 1924 01:31:37,320 --> 01:31:39,599 Speaker 2: And that's not white people. White people don't watch that ship. 1925 01:31:39,680 --> 01:31:42,920 Speaker 2: That's us hating ourselves. Like that's us going yep, we 1926 01:31:43,160 --> 01:31:45,559 Speaker 2: less than all. Our ship is fucked up. It's why 1927 01:31:45,560 --> 01:31:49,360 Speaker 2: I don't shop on BET no more. I think Tyler 1928 01:31:49,400 --> 01:31:51,760 Speaker 2: Perry makes terrible movies. I don't go see them. It's 1929 01:31:51,800 --> 01:31:54,680 Speaker 2: my solution, you know what I mean. Like, and I 1930 01:31:54,720 --> 01:31:56,960 Speaker 2: don't think that there's a weird ultimato. I think people 1931 01:31:57,040 --> 01:32:00,479 Speaker 2: ship on movies that are bad, period. 1932 01:32:01,200 --> 01:32:01,920 Speaker 4: The thing is. 1933 01:32:03,600 --> 01:32:07,720 Speaker 2: People will stop going to see those movies, right And 1934 01:32:07,840 --> 01:32:10,040 Speaker 2: I think that's a black thing too, Like we'll go 1935 01:32:10,439 --> 01:32:12,720 Speaker 2: see something because we're so starved to see a representation 1936 01:32:12,800 --> 01:32:15,920 Speaker 2: of ourselves. That's why many people don't like Tyler Perry 1937 01:32:15,960 --> 01:32:18,280 Speaker 2: movies and they go see every Tyler Perry movie they 1938 01:32:18,320 --> 01:32:22,080 Speaker 2: don't like, you know, they don't like Kevin Hart. They're 1939 01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:24,439 Speaker 2: gonna go see everything Kevin Hart's end this year, you know. 1940 01:32:24,680 --> 01:32:27,360 Speaker 2: And it's because we're black and we want to see 1941 01:32:27,360 --> 01:32:29,680 Speaker 2: a representation of ourselves and we're not getting a lot 1942 01:32:29,720 --> 01:32:32,320 Speaker 2: of them, so we just go, Okay, one out of 1943 01:32:32,360 --> 01:32:35,200 Speaker 2: every twenty seven movies is a black movie.

Going to PWI, I always knew that 2284 01:48:55,760 --> 01:48:57,840 Speaker 2: white folks generally would not understand my issue as a 2285 01:48:57,880 --> 01:49:00,360 Speaker 2: black male. I have been in private schools all life, 2286 01:49:00,400 --> 01:49:02,759 Speaker 2: or remember being called a nigger and hearing a nigger 2287 01:49:02,760 --> 01:49:04,320 Speaker 2: all the way back in high school, so. 2288 01:49:04,479 --> 01:49:05,720 Speaker 3: I never put it past them. 2289 01:49:05,920 --> 01:49:08,240 Speaker 2: I understand these students paying, but at the same time 2290 01:49:08,320 --> 01:49:10,360 Speaker 2: they need to suck that shit up. One thing I 2291 01:49:10,520 --> 01:49:12,320 Speaker 2: learned is that there won't always be a lane for you, 2292 01:49:12,439 --> 01:49:14,759 Speaker 2: so you have to make that lane.

Like is it two 2602 02:03:58,600 --> 02:04:02,600 Speaker 2: hundred percent more costs to educate a person than it 2603 02:04:02,920 --> 02:04:05,040 Speaker 2: was back in the day, You know what I mean? 2604 02:04:05,160 --> 02:04:08,000 Speaker 3: Like, I just wonder maybe it is, but why. 2605 02:04:08,680 --> 02:04:12,680 Speaker 6: And I think, just just my personal I guess viewpoint 2606 02:04:12,800 --> 02:04:16,720 Speaker 6: of that. I think years ago, education was considered a 2607 02:04:17,720 --> 02:04:20,560 Speaker 6: quote unquote it's always been a privilege, but it was 2608 02:04:20,720 --> 02:04:23,360 Speaker 6: like a privilege and it didn't cost that much because 2609 02:04:23,440 --> 02:04:27,360 Speaker 6: a lot of the universities looked at educating students as 2610 02:04:27,520 --> 02:04:31,840 Speaker 6: educating students. But as time went on and universities got 2611 02:04:31,880 --> 02:04:35,480 Speaker 6: into money, and the universities got into making bigger and 2612 02:04:35,560 --> 02:04:39,640 Speaker 6: better universities as it got where which you've always had 2613 02:04:39,680 --> 02:04:41,760 Speaker 6: people give to universities, but it's gotten to the point 2614 02:04:41,760 --> 02:04:43,360 Speaker 6: where universities realized. 2615 02:04:43,040 --> 02:04:45,840 Speaker 4: That they the university realized it is a corporation. 2616 02:04:46,360 --> 02:04:48,800 Speaker 6: And so once the university realized it is a corporation, 2617 02:04:49,000 --> 02:04:52,520 Speaker 6: and people will pay millions of dollars and donate millions 2618 02:04:52,560 --> 02:04:55,280 Speaker 6: of dollars and give millions of dollars to a corporation. 2619 02:04:55,680 --> 02:04:58,840 Speaker 6: Why else witness corporation charged more for the prestige of 2620 02:04:59,120 --> 02:05:02,680 Speaker 6: stepping the name of this corporation on your certificate and 2621 02:05:02,880 --> 02:05:06,280 Speaker 6: charging you thousands of thousands and millions of dollars a year, 2622 02:05:06,680 --> 02:05:09,480 Speaker 6: not really giving a fuck about your education, but just 2623 02:05:09,720 --> 02:05:12,240 Speaker 6: worrying about the corporation itself. And at the end of 2624 02:05:12,280 --> 02:05:14,720 Speaker 6: the day, guess what's going to survive that corporation. The 2625 02:05:14,760 --> 02:05:17,560 Speaker 6: corporation really doesn't care about the product that it pushes out. 2626 02:05:18,400 --> 02:05:21,120 Speaker 6: Whatever school you go today, don't give a rests as 2627 02:05:21,280 --> 02:05:23,120 Speaker 6: about your degree. As long as you're gonna pay for 2628 02:05:23,200 --> 02:05:25,720 Speaker 6: it and you pass them standardized TESK, that's kind of 2629 02:05:25,760 --> 02:05:26,520 Speaker 6: all they care about. 2630 02:05:26,560 --> 02:05:26,680 Speaker 4: Now. 2631 02:05:27,480 --> 02:05:29,200 Speaker 3: You don't even use the shit you learned in college 2632 02:05:29,240 --> 02:05:29,680 Speaker 3: at a job. 2633 02:05:29,880 --> 02:05:30,680 Speaker 4: No, you don't. 2634 02:05:30,880 --> 02:05:32,480 Speaker 2: Every job I've had, they just taught you how to 2635 02:05:32,520 --> 02:05:34,840 Speaker 2: do job at the job. It really didn't matter what I. 2636 02:05:35,480 --> 02:05:38,520 Speaker 6: And most people that I've come and interact with, whatever 2637 02:05:38,680 --> 02:05:42,720 Speaker 6: your unless you had a specific degree. Most people, whatever 2638 02:05:42,760 --> 02:05:44,560 Speaker 6: they're doing right now is not what the fuck they 2639 02:05:44,600 --> 02:05:46,720 Speaker 6: went to school for. And it's one of those things 2640 02:05:46,760 --> 02:05:48,920 Speaker 6: where when you say this, people don't agree with you. 2641 02:05:49,400 --> 02:05:52,400 Speaker 6: Less and less people are going to start getting the education. 2642 02:05:52,800 --> 02:05:55,480 Speaker 6: A because the motherfucker costs too much. B because most 2643 02:05:55,600 --> 02:05:58,440 Speaker 6: most people can't afford it. And also most less people 2644 02:05:58,440 --> 02:06:00,600 Speaker 6: are getting it because less and less people are seeing 2645 02:06:00,840 --> 02:06:04,280 Speaker 6: the are not ripping the benefits of going in debt. 2646 02:06:05,160 --> 02:06:07,440 Speaker 6: So I go in debt and then I still have 2647 02:06:07,600 --> 02:06:09,800 Speaker 6: a shitty ass job. I go in debt, Go get 2648 02:06:09,880 --> 02:06:13,000 Speaker 6: my doctorates, go get all this education, spend fifteen twenty 2649 02:06:13,120 --> 02:06:15,280 Speaker 6: years in school, and I still don't have a job 2650 02:06:15,360 --> 02:06:16,480 Speaker 6: that can pay this off. 2651 02:06:16,840 --> 02:06:17,720 Speaker 4: Is it really worth it? 2652 02:06:17,840 --> 02:06:21,240 Speaker 6: And I also I think with the invention of the Internet, 2653 02:06:21,600 --> 02:06:25,320 Speaker 6: it's allowing people to make money and go and go. 2654 02:06:25,720 --> 02:06:28,000 Speaker 4: And with the invention of the internet, it's. 2655 02:06:27,880 --> 02:06:31,320 Speaker 6: Allowing people to have alternate routes outside of school to 2656 02:06:31,480 --> 02:06:33,720 Speaker 6: benefit and make money now. And it's just one of 2657 02:06:33,760 --> 02:06:36,200 Speaker 6: those things where hey, I might not not know everything, 2658 02:06:36,440 --> 02:06:39,360 Speaker 6: but I know enough to make the next app and 2659 02:06:39,400 --> 02:06:41,400 Speaker 6: next thing. You know, I'm a billionaire and I never 2660 02:06:41,480 --> 02:06:43,640 Speaker 6: spend a day in school. And more and more people 2661 02:06:43,680 --> 02:06:47,400 Speaker 6: are starting to understand this. And also I do understand 2662 02:06:47,480 --> 02:06:50,640 Speaker 6: when people make this quote unquote argument about you know, 2663 02:06:50,920 --> 02:06:54,560 Speaker 6: a degree, you know, you make a few thousand dollars more, 2664 02:06:54,640 --> 02:06:56,680 Speaker 6: but yeah, you within a few thousand dollars worth of 2665 02:06:56,760 --> 02:06:58,520 Speaker 6: debt that this other person don't have either. 2666 02:06:58,640 --> 02:07:02,560 Speaker 2: Well, you know, statistically, they've been proven that a person 2667 02:07:02,600 --> 02:07:05,080 Speaker 2: with a degree earns like a million dollars more over 2668 02:07:05,120 --> 02:07:10,240 Speaker 2: their lifetime than somebody without. Right. True, So the point 2669 02:07:10,360 --> 02:07:14,320 Speaker 2: really is this, The reason that people are even going 2670 02:07:14,360 --> 02:07:17,320 Speaker 2: to college is because college has become the new dividing 2671 02:07:17,400 --> 02:07:20,120 Speaker 2: line between class. It is not those who will have 2672 02:07:20,360 --> 02:07:22,200 Speaker 2: and those who will not, those who will be middle 2673 02:07:22,200 --> 02:07:25,840 Speaker 2: class those who will be working poor. And it's even 2674 02:07:25,880 --> 02:07:29,960 Speaker 2: though it's becoming less and less difference between those two classes. 2675 02:07:31,960 --> 02:07:33,680 Speaker 2: That's the reason people do it, and the reason people 2676 02:07:33,760 --> 02:07:37,080 Speaker 2: go to Harvard and and all these other places is 2677 02:07:37,160 --> 02:07:40,840 Speaker 2: because that is the promise of even a higher class 2678 02:07:41,080 --> 02:07:43,320 Speaker 2: than just a college degree. It's like, oh, now now 2679 02:07:43,360 --> 02:07:46,600 Speaker 2: you'll be upper middle class or higher because you graduated 2680 02:07:46,640 --> 02:07:50,240 Speaker 2: from here. So that's what they're really paying for, right, 2681 02:07:51,480 --> 02:07:53,400 Speaker 2: Like they don't actually pay for the education. 2682 02:07:53,640 --> 02:07:56,520 Speaker 3: They pay for like you said, the name, They pay 2683 02:07:56,560 --> 02:07:57,560 Speaker 3: for the shirt, the sweater. 2684 02:07:59,520 --> 02:08:02,000 Speaker 6: But hey, what do I know you're gonna And my 2685 02:08:02,120 --> 02:08:05,680 Speaker 6: thing is this, The thing about it that really, I 2686 02:08:05,720 --> 02:08:10,040 Speaker 6: guess affects me is this, regardless of what of where 2687 02:08:10,120 --> 02:08:15,240 Speaker 6: your degree is from, your college cannot guar you guarantee 2688 02:08:15,240 --> 02:08:18,360 Speaker 6: your motherfucking job. That's something where people fail to realize that. 2689 02:08:18,720 --> 02:08:20,920 Speaker 6: And so it's just one of those things where you 2690 02:08:21,120 --> 02:08:22,920 Speaker 6: go and you get this, you get disagree, and you 2691 02:08:22,960 --> 02:08:24,960 Speaker 6: get on this debt and guess what, you're out there 2692 02:08:25,000 --> 02:08:27,240 Speaker 6: looking for a job too. Just like the person that 2693 02:08:27,400 --> 02:08:30,440 Speaker 6: graduated from an HBCU, all y'all in the same pool 2694 02:08:30,520 --> 02:08:32,200 Speaker 6: at the end of the day, and and and and 2695 02:08:32,360 --> 02:08:34,520 Speaker 6: and their degree was a fraction of the cost. 2696 02:08:35,240 --> 02:08:38,760 Speaker 3: And a lot of people think, if I can get 2697 02:08:38,760 --> 02:08:39,320 Speaker 3: in the Harvard. 2698 02:08:39,400 --> 02:08:41,120 Speaker 2: If I can deal with this bullshit and I can 2699 02:08:41,200 --> 02:08:45,280 Speaker 2: graduate as a black person, it'll kind of give me 2700 02:08:45,400 --> 02:08:48,840 Speaker 2: a cover for my race. Like people will look at 2701 02:08:48,880 --> 02:08:51,440 Speaker 2: me and see Harvard first, not just a black guy, 2702 02:08:52,760 --> 02:08:56,880 Speaker 2: and they just like that.

We 2790 02:13:15,880 --> 02:13:17,960 Speaker 2: falling into the habit of hanging out to discuss history, 2791 02:13:18,000 --> 02:13:21,960 Speaker 2: specifically African American history. It started back in January when 2792 02:13:21,960 --> 02:13:24,480 Speaker 2: I showed a bit of Freedom Riders to illustrate a point, 2793 02:13:24,560 --> 02:13:27,320 Speaker 2: and at the class I let the video ride. None 2794 02:13:27,600 --> 02:13:30,480 Speaker 2: had ever heard of North to South Greyhound and Trailways 2795 02:13:30,920 --> 02:13:34,160 Speaker 2: racially integrated bus line bus rides that tested the new 2796 02:13:34,240 --> 02:13:37,520 Speaker 2: federal desegregation laws in the Deep South. After that post 2797 02:13:37,640 --> 02:13:41,920 Speaker 2: class gathering, a few students asked me what their reason 2798 02:13:42,280 --> 02:13:43,200 Speaker 2: to protest will be? 2799 02:13:44,000 --> 02:13:46,840 Speaker 3: Yo?

Because 2802 02:13:53,920 --> 02:13:57,400 Speaker 6: like me and l CH is one thing, our struggles 2803 02:13:57,480 --> 02:13:59,800 Speaker 6: are going to be different than your struggles, and the 2804 02:14:00,040 --> 02:14:02,120 Speaker 6: way you protest is gonna be different. The way when 2805 02:14:02,200 --> 02:14:04,880 Speaker 6: we protest and the way that you perceive the world 2806 02:14:05,000 --> 02:14:06,960 Speaker 6: around you is gonna be completely different. 2807 02:14:08,360 --> 02:14:11,200 Speaker 2: But okay, older folks have played parts in our social movements. 2808 02:14:11,480 --> 02:14:14,400 Speaker 2: But I was struck by the lack of self awareness 2809 02:14:14,480 --> 02:14:18,240 Speaker 2: and self actualization. Students are often the reasons for the 2810 02:14:18,320 --> 02:14:22,360 Speaker 2: protest season, not old folks.

So for example, when they 3002 02:23:18,000 --> 02:23:21,280 Speaker 2: were at that law school, we fought them. We oh, 3003 02:23:21,360 --> 02:23:23,400 Speaker 2: when we were at that law school, we fought them. 3004 02:23:23,760 --> 02:23:24,600 Speaker 3: We had demands. 3005 02:23:24,680 --> 02:23:27,200 Speaker 2: We embarrassed them on the news by identifying and criticizing 3006 02:23:27,200 --> 02:23:27,920 Speaker 2: their hypocrisy. 3007 02:23:28,360 --> 02:23:30,920 Speaker 3: Even when and while they stiff armed us, we carried on. 3008 02:23:31,600 --> 02:23:34,040 Speaker 2: We met and spent quality time with other African Americans 3009 02:23:34,080 --> 02:23:37,440 Speaker 2: across campus, which was in walking distance. We created this 3010 02:23:37,560 --> 02:23:40,960 Speaker 2: cool Friday night off campus gathering where we educated ourselves, 3011 02:23:41,280 --> 02:23:45,120 Speaker 2: played games, dialogue, and fed each other. We raised money 3012 02:23:45,200 --> 02:23:47,560 Speaker 2: for our organizations when the school wouldn't fund some of 3013 02:23:47,640 --> 02:23:51,520 Speaker 2: our projects by selling our organization's sweatshirt to African American 3014 02:23:51,560 --> 02:23:52,760 Speaker 2: students nationally. 3015 02:23:53,440 --> 02:23:54,720 Speaker 3: They never loved us. 3016 02:23:55,000 --> 02:23:57,000 Speaker 2: I don't even know if they liked us, but it 3017 02:23:57,120 --> 02:24:00,960 Speaker 2: seemed pretty clear that they surely respected us them Some 3018 02:24:01,120 --> 02:24:03,080 Speaker 2: of us got great grades and went on to have 3019 02:24:03,200 --> 02:24:07,040 Speaker 2: great careers despite them. Those of us who didn't get 3020 02:24:07,120 --> 02:24:08,879 Speaker 2: great grades went on to have great careers. 3021 02:24:09,640 --> 02:24:10,920 Speaker 3: Now here's the rug. 3022 02:24:11,480 --> 02:24:13,840 Speaker 2: Ask my law school students if we should contact the 3023 02:24:13,879 --> 02:24:16,680 Speaker 2: students to apprise them of the school's history, especially in 3024 02:24:16,800 --> 02:24:18,080 Speaker 2: less politically correct times. 3025 02:24:18,440 --> 02:24:19,640 Speaker 3: Folks ain't even answering me. 3026 02:24:20,400 --> 02:24:21,120 Speaker 4: Oh what damn. 3027 02:24:21,720 --> 02:24:23,800 Speaker 2: No one's interested in doing the hard work of teaching 3028 02:24:23,840 --> 02:24:27,119 Speaker 2: the children, even folks who are soldiers to be generous. 3029 02:24:27,200 --> 02:24:29,480 Speaker 2: It's too painful, and some of us don't want to 3030 02:24:29,520 --> 02:24:32,640 Speaker 2: relive the pain. That's also shame personal or professional that 3031 02:24:32,760 --> 02:24:34,840 Speaker 2: gets in the way of sharing. I suspect this may 3032 02:24:35,240 --> 02:24:36,560 Speaker 2: also be true for parents. 3033 02:24:37,040 --> 02:24:42,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. Also, I think what really. 3034 02:24:42,080 --> 02:24:45,680 Speaker 2: Is scary was the most scary outcome and the reason 3035 02:24:45,760 --> 02:24:47,160 Speaker 2: a lot of people are not gonna say anything to 3036 02:24:47,200 --> 02:24:49,640 Speaker 2: these kids.

That's I want these people 3042 02:25:11,160 --> 02:25:14,480 Speaker 2: to like me and they aren't, so hopefully this video 3043 02:25:15,040 --> 02:25:17,360 Speaker 2: will make them like me. That's the scariest outcome. Hopefully 3044 02:25:17,440 --> 02:25:20,240 Speaker 2: that's not an outcome. Hopefully that's not what the video 3045 02:25:20,360 --> 02:25:22,800 Speaker 2: is about and all that shit. But that's the scariest 3046 02:25:22,840 --> 02:25:25,520 Speaker 2: thing about that video because they never really said what 3047 02:25:25,600 --> 02:25:28,160 Speaker 2: they truly want or how they're gonna get it.

I 3249 02:34:04,480 --> 02:34:06,960 Speaker 2: do wonder about that, especially for the interracial kids, like 3250 02:34:07,080 --> 02:34:09,560 Speaker 2: how many kids were raised and like, we're not gonna 3251 02:34:09,600 --> 02:34:12,120 Speaker 2: talk about raised, We're not gonna discuss it. You live 3252 02:34:12,160 --> 02:34:14,800 Speaker 2: in a race free world. And then the kids get 3253 02:34:14,840 --> 02:34:17,040 Speaker 2: out there and they're just unprepared. They're just like what 3254 02:34:17,920 --> 02:34:19,080 Speaker 2: why is people acting like this? 3255 02:34:19,200 --> 02:34:21,720 Speaker 3: Mom and dad? You know, it's like, well, my bad. 3256 02:34:22,520 --> 02:34:25,440 Speaker 3: Something that hit me when when thinking about this other day. 3257 02:34:25,560 --> 02:34:28,040 Speaker 2: These kids are the product of a generation of parents 3258 02:34:28,080 --> 02:34:30,039 Speaker 2: who took an approach to parenting that was based around 3259 02:34:30,080 --> 02:34:31,920 Speaker 2: protecting and insulating their kids at all costs. 3260 02:34:32,320 --> 02:34:33,760 Speaker 3: I refer to the type of parents. 3261 02:34:33,600 --> 02:34:35,360 Speaker 2: That would go up to the school because out the 3262 02:34:35,440 --> 02:34:37,960 Speaker 2: teacher or complaining to the principal when the kid got 3263 02:34:38,000 --> 02:34:40,400 Speaker 2: a bad grade, rather than actually talking to or disciplining 3264 02:34:40,480 --> 02:34:43,440 Speaker 2: their child. The type of parents who complained to the 3265 02:34:43,520 --> 02:34:45,959 Speaker 2: coach or to the damn school board that the kid 3266 02:34:46,000 --> 02:34:48,680 Speaker 2: didn't make the basketball team, rather than encouraging their kid 3267 02:34:48,720 --> 02:34:50,080 Speaker 2: to work harder and come back next year. 3268 02:34:50,520 --> 02:34:52,000 Speaker 3: The problem with that approach to parenting. 3269 02:34:52,280 --> 02:34:54,959 Speaker 2: Parents like this leave their kids woefully up prepared for life, 3270 02:34:55,240 --> 02:34:58,000 Speaker 2: and the system don't stop after graduation. All you can 3271 02:34:58,040 --> 02:35:01,320 Speaker 2: control is what you can control s. Study, get good grades, 3272 02:35:01,640 --> 02:35:03,800 Speaker 2: and fuck with the racist white people on campus. Think 3273 02:35:03,840 --> 02:35:06,360 Speaker 2: about you. Part of being black in America is learning 3274 02:35:06,360 --> 02:35:09,240 Speaker 2: how to deal with sism effectively. And this is where 3275 02:35:09,480 --> 02:35:11,879 Speaker 2: I'm the most disappointed with the parents of black students 3276 02:35:11,879 --> 02:35:15,160 Speaker 2: at UCLA and Harvard. Rather than wasting time making windy 3277 02:35:15,240 --> 02:35:17,680 Speaker 2: ass videos, why not flip it. Flip it on your 3278 02:35:17,720 --> 02:35:21,400 Speaker 2: white classmates and get them reparation drinks up out of them, 3279 02:35:22,760 --> 02:35:23,400 Speaker 2: I understand. 3280 02:35:24,040 --> 02:35:27,119 Speaker 3: Then the section go out to the bar, get them drinks. 3281 02:35:27,440 --> 02:35:29,360 Speaker 2: Then the section of white privilege and white guilt is 3282 02:35:29,440 --> 02:35:30,840 Speaker 2: a glorious place for black people. 3283 02:35:31,280 --> 02:35:32,480 Speaker 3: I've been to the mountaintop. 3284 02:35:32,600 --> 02:35:33,200 Speaker 4: I have seen it. 3285 02:35:33,320 --> 02:35:35,160 Speaker 2: I barely pay for a drink for four years of 3286 02:35:35,200 --> 02:35:37,880 Speaker 2: college because white kids spending their parents' money on me. 3287 02:35:38,760 --> 02:35:40,840 Speaker 2: This is the biggest way that black parents have failed 3288 02:35:40,840 --> 02:35:43,840 Speaker 2: their children, not putting them up on game about reparation drinks. 3289 02:35:44,560 --> 02:35:47,200 Speaker 2: Rest assured when the time comes, Black Rob Junior will 3290 02:35:47,200 --> 02:35:49,480 Speaker 2: be ready to hustle them drinks up out of his 3291 02:35:49,720 --> 02:35:54,040 Speaker 2: white classmates. Ah, there's an art. It's a science to it. Now, 3292 02:35:54,280 --> 02:35:56,480 Speaker 2: there's a science to it all right, man, that's it 3293 02:35:56,560 --> 02:35:59,520 Speaker 2: for today.
