1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,560 Speaker 1: I listened to the Black Guy Who Tips podcast because 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,800 Speaker 1: Roden Karen are haunt. The very essence of the civil 3 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:10,799 Speaker 1: rights movement was it appealed to the conscience of those 4 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: who beat us with batons, attacked us with dogs, and 5 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,960 Speaker 1: stood defiantly at the schoolhouse door. We wanted our enemies 6 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 1: to know that every blow they struck was a blow 7 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:23,319 Speaker 1: against another human being. The bloodshed that resulted was the 8 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:27,640 Speaker 1: blood of all humanity. When I met George Wallace, I 9 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:32,559 Speaker 1: had to forgive him because to do otherwise, to hate him, 10 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: would only perpetuate the evil system we sought to destroy. 11 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,479 Speaker 1: George Wallace should be remembered for his capacity to change, 12 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:41,959 Speaker 1: and we are better as a nation because of our 13 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,479 Speaker 1: capacity to forgive and to acknowledge that our political leaders 14 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 1: are human and largely a reflection of the social currents 15 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:52,879 Speaker 1: in the river of history. Whether at the bridge in Selma, 16 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 1: at a bombed church in Birmingham, or on the schoolhouse steps, 17 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: George Wallace and I were thrust together by fate, by 18 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: our personal conviction and principle, and by what I like 19 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:06,119 Speaker 1: to call the spirit of history. The Civil Rights movement 20 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,319 Speaker 1: achieved his goals in the person of mister Wallace because 21 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,560 Speaker 1: he grew to see that we, as human beings, are 22 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,040 Speaker 1: joined by a common bond. I can never forget what 23 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:19,120 Speaker 1: George Wallace said and did as governor, as a national leader, 24 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: and as a political opportunist. But our ability to forgive 25 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: serves a higher moral purpose in our society. Through genuine 26 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: repentance and forgiveness, the soul of our nation is redeemed. 27 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: George Wallace deserves to be remembered for his effort to 28 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: redeem his soul and is so doing to mend the 29 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: fabric of American society.

It's 53 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: from the New York Times op ed uh and it 54 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: was written by John Lewis in nineteen ninety eight. September sixteenth, 55 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: nineteen ninety eight. John Lewis, civil rights icon hero. You 56 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: know he died today. He passed today. I know last 57 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: week everybody was saying, wek yeah, but it was actually 58 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: today that he passed. And you know, ly last night 59 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: I believe, but rest in peace to a to a 60 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: giant among men and women and people of of all backgrounds, 61 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: face colors, all that stuff. Somebody that really walked the 62 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: walk and truly did believe it, and a much better 63 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: man than pretty much most of us are ever gonna 64 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: hope to be, period. And I just wanted to bring 65 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: up that part because a lot of the stuff that 66 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: people say they wan't, I think there's a lot of 67 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: stuff right now that's easy. And I think one of 68 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: the things that's always easy for people to reach for 69 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: in terms of distress is vengeance. You know, it's something 70 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: that we all it's a human emotion we all relate to, 71 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: and we all can feel it, and you know, we've 72 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 1: all been there before. And I think the hardest fucking thing, 73 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: it's harder than it's hard to forgive people to move on. 74 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: And I you know, and too often people trivialize forgiveness 75 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: as some weak shit, that's something that people do to 76 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: protect white people, protect whiteness. But it's not. 77 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 3: It's really about protecting your soul. 78 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: And I believe also it's about saving someone else's soul 79 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: because of what they did, you know, So to see 80 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 1: John Lewis talk about that, and John Lewis wasn't no 81 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: like soft ass like you ain't got to do nothing. 82 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: I'm just kind of like he was on some like listen, 83 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: if you do the work, if you show repentance, if 84 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: you do that, then then I'm willing to to to 85 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: then move on. You know, this is not he didn't 86 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: attend Trump's inauguration, Like, this isn't something dude that just 87 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: throws these platitudes out here or whatever or says shit 88 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: and doesn't live by it or tries it or tries 89 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 1: to throw forgiveness out there some like catch y'all that 90 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,239 Speaker 1: you can just oh, why can't we just forgive everything? 91 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: Like No, it was very much like if you make 92 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 1: a concerted effort, because that's really what civil rights movement was. 93 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,720 Speaker 1: It was pushing people to make that concerted effort to say, 94 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: this sustain in your soul more than nine So what 95 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: are you gonna do to move beyond this? And you know, 96 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: different times for different folks. I think now we're more 97 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: in the age of like kind of hate and bitterness, 98 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: and and like we I think there's there's this idea 99 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: that well, we haven't tried hate before, which we have, 100 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: but like if we're violent to them, if we're dismissed 101 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 1: to them, if we're mean to them, then that will 102 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: win the way when the day win the war. And look, 103 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: maybe it will. Maybe I don't, you know, maybe John 104 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 1: Lewis doesn't know what he's talking about. But I feel 105 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 1: like there's some some there's some consideration and wisdom in 106 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 1: the words of a man that people want to throw 107 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: out there like a Pokemon mascot today, you know, and 108 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: cherry pick what he stood for. But there's some words 109 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 1: of wisdom in this person because all his radicalness, all 110 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: of his getting arrested, all of his being abused, all 111 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 1: of his standing up, all of his boycotts, all of 112 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: that good trouble he did, all of that still came 113 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: from a place of radical love for himself, his fellow man, woman, 114 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 1: every you know, fellow people, uh, and even for the 115 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: people that tormented him. And I think that just gets 116 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: lost in the equation. And you know, you know, it's 117 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: just it's an easy sentiment to dismiss, But I don't think. 118 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: I think people are misguided when they dismiss it so 119 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 1: out of hand. It should be considered because ultimately there 120 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: will be no reconciliation, there will be no truth, there 121 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: will be no justice if we don't have the capacity 122 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: to to forgive at some point. You can't have you 123 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: can't have uh, you can't reset things without that. And 124 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: I think that's a very important lesson. That's what I'm 125 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: gonna take from his life. 126 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 2: No, you can't. And you know, because. 127 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 4: A lot of people have been hurt, a lot of 128 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 4: people have been damaged by their past, a lot of 129 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 4: people have been let down, a lot of that's why 130 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 4: do you have a lot of needs to dose with 131 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 4: so much anger? You do me, fuck you forever, you 132 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 4: crossed me, Fuck you forever, fuck you forever. And you're like, okay, okay, 133 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 4: you say that, you say that, let's go back. 134 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 2: Down memory lane. In your life. 135 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 4: Have you ever disappointed your parents, your grandparents? Have you 136 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 4: ever disappointed your uncles? Have you ever disappointed your children, 137 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 4: your spouse? Is there somebody where you have done an 138 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 4: action to disappoint them and they, at some period of 139 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 4: time had to go through the route of forgiveness, But 140 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 4: as your kids, it don't matter. 141 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 2: Did they forgive you? Is the question? 142 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 4: Because the thing is people act like you do something 143 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 4: to them, and you're just supposed to write people off forever. 144 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 4: But everybody under the sign of my voice at some 145 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,359 Speaker 4: period of time, somebody somewhere had to ask you for forgiveness. 146 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 2: And the thing is. 147 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 4: A lot of people want to pick and choose when 148 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 4: they do that, like they've never committed a wrong crime, 149 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 4: Like they've never made a flaw, said the wrong thing, 150 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 4: you know, Like like they've never crossed somebody that didn't 151 00:08:55,640 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 4: mean to cross or did something never never never never never, 152 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 4: Like you were just born absolutely positively perfect and there's 153 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 4: nothing that you ever did in your life that requires 154 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 4: some form of forgiveness from somebody in your life. And 155 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 4: for me, I think as you become an adult, life 156 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 4: will harden your heart. That's a lot of people like 157 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 4: life will actually harden your heart, and you have got 158 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 4: to learn that, in my opinion, if you choose not 159 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 4: to forgive, cool, But for a lot of people they 160 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 4: say that, but you can tell that it bothers them 161 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 4: and it weighs them down, and it hurts them, and 162 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 4: it prevents them from relationships and it breaks bonds and 163 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 4: it does all this damage because you are allowing this 164 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 4: hurt and pain to wrack your soul. 165 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 2: You are allowing it to. 166 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 4: Tell you apart, and you can't forgive, and you can't 167 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 4: forget and it's a replay in your mind, and it's 168 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 4: a very tortuous place to be and a lot of. 169 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 2: People will never admit that they're struggling with this. 170 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 4: It's easier for you to say, well, then fuck them 171 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 4: and cut them off, and if it at the bud 172 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 4: because you quote unquot protecting yourself and I understand that. 173 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:04,839 Speaker 2: But part of. 174 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 4: Life is love and lost and being disappointed, and part 175 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 4: of life is also being hurt, like that's also the 176 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:15,200 Speaker 4: that's also part of life and living. And my thing 177 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 4: is if you don't hurt, not trying to find it, 178 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 4: you're actually not living. And that's very hard to get 179 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 4: people to understand that because the thing is forgiveness works 180 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 4: for everybody, and particularly here in America, particularly with slavery 181 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 4: and all that stuff. In order for us to move 182 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 4: past that, it's a lot of forgiving. White people need 183 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 4: to forgive themselves and black people need to forget white people. 184 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 4: That's very hard to do because you're requiring a lot 185 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 4: when you go back and you look at the history 186 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 4: and the past and it hurts, and don't. 187 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: Be lost in that. There has to be repentance, that 188 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: it has to be work like, it's not forgiveness for 189 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: forgiveness sake. 190 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 2: No. 191 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: No, I think that's what people get lost in, is 192 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: this idea like yeah, and then we move on. It's like, no, 193 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: when someone is willing to move on, are you going 194 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: to meet them there? You know? Because if not, then 195 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: what's the point of the movement If the whole movement 196 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 1: is just to turn it into some type of like 197 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: I don't know, punishment of white people, some type of like, 198 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: for lack of a better term, cooking of white whiteness, 199 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: like you know, it's like, uh, you know, it's like 200 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,559 Speaker 1: people can't it's like they want to replace the white 201 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: people at the top with their own dogma. 202 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 3: And I think to see past that is so rare 203 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 3: to see people. 204 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: And John Lewis saw past that, like, no, it's not 205 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: about us dictating down to white people, like and now 206 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 1: we the new leaders, Like no, that's not what the 207 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 1: fuck we want, you know, Like, it's about uh, mitigating harm, 208 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 1: it's about coming together and putting yourself on the line 209 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: for other people. Because it's not like this was his 210 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: only cause. Like John Lewis was a uh was a 211 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: Democrat through and through for many causes. You know. The 212 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: other thing too, is what I what I what I 213 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,839 Speaker 1: always think about when I think about the Civil Rights 214 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: movement of like the peace the peaceful protesters quote unquote, 215 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,559 Speaker 1: because you know, the violence was still done to them, 216 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: and as much people have disdain for those peaceful protests, 217 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: it's so weird because what do you think these quote 218 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:22,439 Speaker 1: unquote uprisings were, Like the vast majority of these uprisings 219 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: were people peacefully protesting and the police beating them up 220 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: and shit and getting caught on camera. That is from 221 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: the Civil rights era. Yes, and to have people like 222 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: spit in the face of the civil rights era, to 223 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,439 Speaker 1: have people, you know, I remember people were talking bad 224 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: about John Lewis when he essentially said he wasn't friends 225 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 1: with Bernie like me and Bernie like I don't know 226 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: him in the way that you know, like he ain't 227 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: really want of the crew, and people got mad at 228 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 1: him as if like, oh, but Hillary Clinton is like well, 229 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton is around and within it works with the 230 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: CBC more often than all that shit. So yes, me 231 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: and Hillary Clinton are cool. 232 00:12:58,520 --> 00:12:59,839 Speaker 2: I know her face, I know her people. 233 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: Me and Bernie are coworkers, and people got very upset 234 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 1: with that man over that, and I was like, you 235 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: know y'all, how fucking dare y'all? You know, like you 236 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: march with King, nobody march with King on to John Lewis, 237 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 1: so like what are we doing? You know? That was 238 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 1: really the start of my like, oh, I'm not even 239 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: fucking with these burning people, like, like, on no level 240 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: do I want to be around them, because I saw 241 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: the jig at that moment. But the thing I really 242 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: uh under respect about him is that he saw strength 243 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: and how much the capacity to withstand. He saw that 244 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: a strength, And I think now people are moving towards 245 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: the capacity to do damage, the capacity to destroy, to 246 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: inflict harm. That's what we see is strength now. And 247 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 1: I'm not saying it never was like that for anybody, 248 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 1: but it seems like the mainstream thing now is you know, 249 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: real resistance is violence. Real resistance is destruction. Real that's 250 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,679 Speaker 1: and if you and if you're not on board with that, 251 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: or if you're or like if that's not your go to, 252 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: you're somehow weaker, you know. And I think, uh, I 253 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: think violence inflicts are stained on your soul, just like 254 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 1: the people that did it to us, And I think 255 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: when we do it to other people, it does that. 256 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: And I think the world that we live in. This 257 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: country wants to turn us into violent animals so they 258 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: can justify what they do to us already, like they 259 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: that's what they existed, and some people accept it and 260 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: they go, I'm gonna become that to show y'all that 261 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: this is what y'all did to me, And and I'm 262 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: gonna show y'all how violent I can be there, fuck y'all. 263 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: And I understand that mentality, but you know, I'll try 264 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: to fight against it because I don't want to. That's 265 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: not I don't want to let them determine the outcome 266 00:14:58,240 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: for me, you know. 267 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 4: And also people don't look at this, but there is 268 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 4: strength and forgiveness, noting fun. 269 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 2: It's real easy to do up a wall, to go 270 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 2: and walk away. 271 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: There's more strength of forgiveness than this other ship. Right. 272 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: People don't want to hear that ship there, But think 273 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: about how rare forgiveness is. If I'm making it up and. 274 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 2: People don't want to be better, the easy. 275 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: Thing is always to hit back. That's why motherfucker's worshiped 276 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: Jesus because he was turning the other cheeks and nobody 277 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 1: else can do that, you know what I mean? Like 278 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: there's a reason to it. You know, it's hard. It 279 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: is fucking hard, you know, just on a social level. 280 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: That's been people that have said and done ship where 281 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: back in the day I would have reflectively snapped back 282 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: of the ass been on the show talking shit about them, 283 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: you know, dragging them through the mud and all that shit. 284 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 1: And when I decided to stop that, to not do 285 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: that anymore, it was like difficult. 286 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 3: You know, We've had long conversations. 287 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: I'm like, just let me. He's let me fucking talk 288 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: about this person, and you know, and it took a 289 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: lot to not do it. But ultimately I felt like 290 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: that was for the best because if I would have 291 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: told any stranger on the street, if I would have 292 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: asked ninety of our listeners, they would have said they 293 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 1: wanted to. 294 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 3: Hear it, just to hear it as entertainment, but. 295 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: They wouldn't have gave a fuck about how it would 296 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: have made me feel later. But you and Justin and 297 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: BOSSI and Nick Jew and all these people, y'all know 298 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: me more than a host of a podcast, So y'all 299 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: know that, Well, at some point you're not gonna feel 300 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: so good about this. At some point you're gonna wish 301 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: you would have just you know, moved a fuck on, 302 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 1: or you're gonna wish that you had been the bigger 303 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: person because you don't really take a lot of pride 304 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: in being team petty dollar shit. And you know, it's 305 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: been an adjustment. I'm not always gonna be able to 306 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: reach it, obviously, you know. It's a very high minded 307 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: virtue that I think is so difficult to reach. It's 308 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 1: very you know, like everyone got their limits. But to 309 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: think of a man like this who faced down George Wallace. 310 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:04,959 Speaker 1: So we don't get to play, we don't get to 311 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: claim some sort of oppression Olympics over John Lewis. We like, 312 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: the most you can say is, well, I'm just not 313 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: as good a man as John Lewis. That's the most 314 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: you can say, because you really can't say I'm a 315 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: better person than him. You can only be like, yeah, 316 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,439 Speaker 1: I just don't have that in me because that and 317 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: that's okay to admit. But that's why the fuck is. 318 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: That's why the fuck he was a Titan. That's why 319 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 1: he was a hero. It is because he did have 320 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,439 Speaker 1: that at him when in a world where nobody has that, 321 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: everyone encourages the small act. Now everyone encourages the reflexive 322 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: clap back. Everyone encourages that. Now no one says, dog, 323 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 1: it ain't even worth it, walk away, it's not you know, 324 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 1: no one does that anymore. 325 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 2: Well, if you do, it's rare that you do that. 326 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 4: And you know, when I say what was talk about 327 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 4: forgiving before, I'm not saying anything that I haven't been through. 328 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 2: I have forgave and I have been forgiven. 329 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,680 Speaker 4: So I've been on both sides of this, and I've 330 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 4: also forgiven myself, which is a different type of. 331 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:06,919 Speaker 2: Forgiveness, you know. 332 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 4: And so you know, it's one of these things where 333 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 4: it's very different because it's something that you have to 334 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 4: wrestle with, this a quote unquote internal. 335 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 1: Battle with yourself. 336 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 4: And I think the hardest forgiveness is the forgiveness of yourself. 337 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 2: You know. 338 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,439 Speaker 4: It for you to be forgiven and for you to 339 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 4: ask forgiveness, that's different than you actually forgiven yourself, you know, 340 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 4: because the thing about it, you feel accountable or responsible 341 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 4: for your actions. 342 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 1: People that don't forgive other people don't forget themselves, correct, 343 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: And you can tell that's why they're so bitter inside. 344 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 1: Like if you have a hard time forgiving other people 345 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: you got a hard time forgiving yourself it less. You're 346 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: some type of fucking narcissist, which is a whole nother story, right, 347 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: But if you, if you're a person, I look at 348 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 1: look deeper at those people that tell you they don't forgive, 349 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 1: and look outw they feel about. 350 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 4: Themselves actions, Look how they treat people. Look at their relationships. 351 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 4: How long are their relationships. Do they have any relationships 352 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 4: that last more than three to five years? Do like 353 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 4: like do people like being around them? See how they 354 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,159 Speaker 4: interact with people on social media? And then your real life. 355 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 4: Look at people around you that like I don't forget. 356 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 2: Look at their lives. Are they happy? Do they seen fulfilled? 357 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 2: Are they mad and bitter and angry? 358 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 4: Like like, signs around them will let you know if 359 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 4: they are at a place where like a lot of 360 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,400 Speaker 4: times people that go, I'm petty, I'm petty, I don't forgive. 361 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 2: I don't forgive. But look around them, and you if 362 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 2: you paid attention. 363 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 4: I think people say this, and people don't pay attention 364 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 4: to what's around them. 365 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 2: Pay attention to the company they keep paying attention. 366 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 4: To that shit, and it will let you know if 367 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 4: they are actually walking to walk and talking to talk 368 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 4: and they just mad to be mad and that's it. 369 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:39,919 Speaker 2: But normally it doesn't work like that. 370 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:44,360 Speaker 4: Normally, if you are a team, I don't forgive nothing, never, never, nobody. 371 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 4: It's a deeper issue that that actually needs to be resolved. 372 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,199 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm not saying it happens immediately, but it 373 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: just takes time. But I think that the fact that 374 00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:02,199 Speaker 1: we create so many communities formed around gripes and the 375 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: capacity to just to inflict damage on people or ask 376 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 1: people and shit, I think that is just put people 377 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: in a much more a much harder space to hear that. 378 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: Like it used to be a time where everyone was 379 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,879 Speaker 1: going to church once a week, you were getting that 380 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,400 Speaker 1: lesson of like and you gotta forgive, you gotta turn 381 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: another cheek. You know, where there was a little bit 382 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 1: more community, you know, where it was physical community. So 383 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,880 Speaker 1: you didn't really have the ability to say, I'm only 384 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 1: gonna sit on this side of the table with everyone 385 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: whose opinions will agree with me. You know, when you're 386 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:38,879 Speaker 1: physically with somebody, you can't cherry pick what you said. 387 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 2: You can't choose to. 388 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 1: Selectively like share this, that and the other. Like they 389 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: kind of get to see the crust of you. So 390 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 1: you have that friend that says something, you go, hey, man, 391 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 1: that's messed up. That's you shouldn't have said that, and 392 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 1: oh my bad. And it could be something that tiny 393 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 1: that we don't have anymore. You know, people fuck up 394 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 1: and now it's like our screenshot got this shit forever, 395 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 1: you know. So it's like this type of environment I 396 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 1: think is can be not is, but can be counter 397 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 1: productive to the capacity to forgive. And and the fact 398 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: that people see two things as weakness tells a lot 399 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: about I feel like and I think this is where 400 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 1: people always lose connection with me. And you know, call 401 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: it the impact, call it being a libra. But I 402 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: feel like the real revolution is apologizing and forgiveness because 403 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: those are the two things people tell you how to 404 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: will make you weak, and to me, those are the 405 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 1: two things that the strongest, the strongest, only the strongest 406 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 1: people can do. 407 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 2: Yes, sir, you know I don't. 408 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: I don't like I look at it as a strength 409 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 1: because I know there are people that I still haven't 410 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,199 Speaker 1: forgiven in my life. I'm like, nah, fuck them, you know. 411 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 1: And I but I hope to. But that's to me, 412 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,040 Speaker 1: it's a goal to be like to one day be 413 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: able to say, even if even if they never apologized, 414 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: to forgive them on the on the in the capacity 415 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 1: that they're human, they made a mistake, they fucked up 416 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: or or whatever, and I let me move on from it. 417 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: Not it's not even for them necessarily, it's for me 418 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: to move on. And I've done that before, you know, 419 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 1: And it's just a goal. So I think that's the 420 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,640 Speaker 1: part that gets lost in all this shit is that 421 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: in the world that sees forgiveness is weakness. John Lewis 422 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 1: was the strongest among us, and anyone that can't see that, 423 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 1: fuck them real talk Like if anyone that can't see that, man, 424 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: you don't know, you don't realize you got the game backwards, 425 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 1: you know, the ability to move on, to not become 426 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: stuck and fixated on this point or this like this 427 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: get back, Because if anybody had any right to be 428 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 1: like I'm on, get. 429 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 3: Back, John Lewis, John Lewis. 430 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 1: Had the right to be like that, you know, and 431 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: and I'm not gonna And unless you're willing to say 432 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 1: he's not a hero, he's some type of weak ass 433 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: nigga or something, then you have to admit the reason 434 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: we lionize this dude. The reason people look up to 435 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: him is because of that capacity to forgive and because 436 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: there is a virtue in it that we must acknowledge 437 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 1: exist because we as long. If we forget that, I 438 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: feel like then everything was pointless. I think everyone talks 439 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: about white supremacy is capitalism, They talk about the racism, 440 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 1: they talk about all this these like bigger societal terms 441 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: and stuff, but just emotionally, emotionally, I feel like white 442 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 1: supremacy is really trying to turn and take and mold 443 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:44,439 Speaker 1: us into the monsters that they said we are, you know, 444 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: and at least for me personally, I refuse. Like that 445 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: is a revolution. That is fighting back. That is radical 446 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: is to love somebody, you know. That's why the you know, 447 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 1: that's why I mean, I make Joe somebody, but that's 448 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 1: why that prison a relationship.

You 450 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, because on some level I understand 451 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 1: what they're trying to get to is this idea of 452 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: you trespass, but you're still a human being, and then 453 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 1: that I believe you're salvageable. I believe you can be 454 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 1: you know, you can be molded or supported in areas 455 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,159 Speaker 1: that would that would reduce the likelihood for you to 456 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 1: commit crime. That is what they essentially are saying. Most 457 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,639 Speaker 1: people don't look at it, you know. I laugh at 458 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 1: the people that just welded over you like a moral 459 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: hour horse.

But you know, if that's 635 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 1: where he stops, that's where he stops, it's really uh, 636 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:09,959 Speaker 1: you know, for him, that's enough, but for somebody else 637 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 1: it might not be enough. And you know, that seems 638 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 1: what the whole conflict between people's discussion of what he 639 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 1: should be up to and what, you know, what they 640 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 1: feel like should happen, That seems to be the whole conflict. 641 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 1: But honestly, the criminal justice system quote unquote has enough 642 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 1: evidence with or without that man to convict this woman, right. 643 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 2: And I'm fine with whatever the system decides. 644 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, d Ramsey aka Mother Jenkins says, I'm playing catchup 645 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 1: with episodes.

You were talking about people who can't 653 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 1: be in silenced with themselves as I was listening to 654 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 1: you while listening to NPR, while doing the dishes, while 655 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 1: doing my laundry, while waiting for the water to filter, 656 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 1: while I was making lemonade, all at the same time. 657 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean I can't be in silence, Hurrah. Just kidding, 658 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:21,240 Speaker 1: a ha, just kidding. That definitely is what it means. 659 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,800 Speaker 1: It's something I've struggle with. That's why I fall asleep 660 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 1: through your podcasts or others. Sometimes. I really liked hearing 661 00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,360 Speaker 1: about how you both use counting to calm your mind 662 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,719 Speaker 1: and bring yourself back to the moment. I'm going to 663 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:35,040 Speaker 1: explore the idea of micro meditation. I'm not consistent enough 664 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: with regular meditation, yet micro meditation might be easier, shorter. 665 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:41,320 Speaker 2: It's shorter, shorter periods of time. 666 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 1: And work your way up. 667 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:45,239 Speaker 4: I guess, yeah, yeah, you know it's an exercise, because 668 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,839 Speaker 4: it's almost something if you're not accustomed to it. Yeah, 669 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 4: five seconds, ten seconds, thirty seconds, and next thing you know, 670 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:52,839 Speaker 4: you're doing the menu, and next thing you know, when 671 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 4: you're on sweet it to five or ten. Like it 672 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:57,839 Speaker 4: is a gradual process, particularly if you have a brain 673 00:36:57,920 --> 00:36:59,400 Speaker 4: that constantly runs all the time. 674 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 1: Him Doc says, I fuck with what, I fuck with 675 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 1: all of y'all, a host of truly beautiful people. Very 676 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 1: grateful for this community. Oh that's just a very nice, 677 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 1: very nice comment. Even he says, artist is still delicious. 678 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 1: And there was a line in the drive through the 679 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: last time I went, oh, listen, I never said there's 680 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:19,799 Speaker 1: not a line in the drive through. I said, there's 681 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: never a line inside. The reason there's a line in 682 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:25,360 Speaker 1: the drive through is because they have to make everything 683 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:29,240 Speaker 1: to order because no one ever orders that. So literally, 684 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 1: if you order a roast beef sandwich, they have to 685 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 1: start cooking the roast beef as you're waiting in line, 686 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:36,759 Speaker 1: so you have to wait thirty minutes for them to 687 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 1: roast to beef or whatever. That's that's very that's not 688 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:43,800 Speaker 1: unusual at all. Bad service can create a good line. 689 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 1: No lack of customers can also create a good line 690 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 1: in fast food. You know, you know, like the line 691 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,840 Speaker 1: is never long, Like when the line is long and Popeye's, 692 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 1: we all know because it's bad service, right like we're 693 00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,359 Speaker 1: like the good food is delicious, but also they had 694 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 1: a worse service. The line is long Chick fil A, 695 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 1: it's because everybody wants some Chick fil A and they 696 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,319 Speaker 1: gotta have people outside taking your order in the middle 697 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,240 Speaker 1: of one hundred and three degree heat. They don't care, 698 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:12,680 Speaker 1: walkie talkie's, relay teens, sniper's on the roof. Yes, they 699 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 1: got all of the shit, but they gonna have a 700 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:18,399 Speaker 1: long line because people love Chick fil Ah. But you know, 701 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 1: when the line is on at Arby's, it just means 702 00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:24,799 Speaker 1: two people wanted Arby's anyway. The poets, have you made 703 00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 1: any friends in the TBGWT community? Yes, not yet? Or 704 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 1: I don't know how to make friends, Karen, Yes, I 705 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 1: have made friends. I have too some of my best 706 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:40,839 Speaker 1: friends now yes yes, Twenty three point six percent say yes, 707 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 1: thirty forty six percent say not yet, and then thirty 708 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 1: and a half percent say I don't know how to 709 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 1: make friends, which I understand. Okay, it's hard if you 710 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,719 Speaker 1: don't learn at a young age how you're supposed to 711 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 1: learn as an adult. And these motherfuckers are not as 712 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 1: friendly once they get it to be grown ever, So 713 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 1: twenty one to thirty nine public debate, we had four 714 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 1: comments on this one. Kim says, Karen, you spoke the 715 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:13,880 Speaker 1: truth about Wait. I thought my mama and her family 716 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 1: were the only ones like this. It drives me crazy, 717 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 1: and I've told her so many motherfucker times to stop that. 718 00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:21,719 Speaker 1: You're right, you know what you look like. I don't 719 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,320 Speaker 1: need nobody tell me that. The thing is, she ain't small, 720 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:26,879 Speaker 1: but that is her go to She's seventy six now, 721 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 1: it ain't changing. But I will let her know how 722 00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: I feel when she said something foul. 723 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, and don't count up about your little hurt feelings, 724 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 4: you know, cause it comes to a point where you 725 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 4: have to kind of stand up in your truth and 726 00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:42,239 Speaker 4: become an adult. Because to most parents, you know, no 727 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,839 Speaker 4: matter how old you are, you still quote unquote their child. 728 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:45,919 Speaker 2: And that's understandable. 729 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 4: Some parents never allow their children to grow up, you know, 730 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 4: they still feel like that they can boss you around 731 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 4: and quote unquote tell you what to do, and particularly 732 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,680 Speaker 4: most black people have been taught we do certain things out. 733 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 2: Of respect, which is cool. 734 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 4: But I can respectfully tell you that you get my 735 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 4: motherfucking nerves and you need to chill out because now 736 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 4: we've grown.

But 758 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 1: it's like, that's not you. No one's making you do shit. 759 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 1: So like, if you think the only kind of person 760 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,280 Speaker 1: that you know is acceptable way is a certain amount 761 00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 1: of weight you don't like, then you can date that 762 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,280 Speaker 1: kind of person, you can be that kind of person, 763 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 1: you can do all this shit.

They don't even know 769 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 2: why they do it. 770 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:25,800 Speaker 4: And some of these people that quote unquote are small 771 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 4: and picking on you have struggled with the same things 772 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 4: some of them, A lot of them are just on 773 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:30,640 Speaker 4: the other side. 774 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 2: Now. 775 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:32,760 Speaker 4: So now since some of the on the other side, 776 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,000 Speaker 4: I can dish out the pain and a hurt that 777 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 4: was poured upon me because that's quote unquote part of 778 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 4: the process. Yeah. 779 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 1: I remember I had a friend he smoked cigarettes, and 780 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 1: I think I've set it off the show a lot 781 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 1: of time ago. One of my random thoughts, so I 782 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,720 Speaker 1: was like, fat people and people that smoke, we should 783 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 1: just be cool with each other. It really is no 784 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:53,399 Speaker 1: need for either one of us to be judging each other. 785 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,480 Speaker 1: You know, like you want to hell smoke and fuck 786 00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:59,120 Speaker 1: up your lungs.

Like, let's 788 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,800 Speaker 1: let's kick it, like you know, but but instead, because 789 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 1: people that smoke a lot of times, smoking can actually 790 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 1: keep you from gaining weight. So you'll have people that 791 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:13,560 Speaker 1: look at somebody that's smoke and be like, there's nothing 792 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,360 Speaker 1: wrong with that, because they look the right way, you 793 00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,640 Speaker 1: know what I mean in their minds. Yeah, quote unquote, 794 00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 1: they look the right way. You know. I remember, like 795 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 1: I hated that she even felt the need to do it, 796 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,799 Speaker 1: But like Lizo put out a video maybe a month 797 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:32,319 Speaker 1: ago of just a year of these workouts she does 798 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 1: in her backyard on her deck and shit, and you 799 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:36,360 Speaker 1: know it's like sped up footage, you know, of the 800 00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 1: like time delay shit, and it's like, yeah, I mean, 801 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:42,279 Speaker 1: one anyone that's ever seen her perform knows Lizo works out. 802 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,359 Speaker 2: You have to do it. In order to do that 803 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:45,600 Speaker 2: and still singing. 804 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,759 Speaker 1: And think about right, think about what it is, because 805 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 1: it's not that she does that once a month. She 806 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 1: does that ship several times a week, travels between the times. 807 00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 1: Like she clearly was in shape, she just wasn't. She 808 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:03,520 Speaker 1: didn't look right, quote unquote, and so people that probably 809 00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:06,240 Speaker 1: cannot be in as good shape as her with shitting 810 00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 1: on her because it's like I look different than you, 811 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 1: therefore you need to listen to my advice or you 812 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 1: know why you got to wear a bathing So it's like, 813 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 1: what if somebody like it? Who gives a fuck? 814 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:18,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, And that's also one of the thing, like you said, 815 00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 4: she's in better shape, it's like, oh, word, could you 816 00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:22,759 Speaker 4: do half the shit she does? 817 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 2: No? 818 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:23,279 Speaker 4: Right? 819 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 1: But she don't. The thing I'm saying is is to me, 820 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 1: it's a little sad. She shouldn't even have to put 821 00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,799 Speaker 1: that video out, you know what I mean, Like it's 822 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 1: kind of obvious she's an athlete because because look what 823 00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 1: you do and you're entertaining, and who cares how you 824 00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:39,320 Speaker 1: got there? You know, because people make it seem like 825 00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:41,400 Speaker 1: it's out of concern. But you don't love lizz Oh, 826 00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 1: you don't even know it. You know, that's a stranger 827 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:45,719 Speaker 1: to you. You know, you don't know her any more 828 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:47,680 Speaker 1: than some stranger walking down the street and you still 829 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 1: would feel very judgmental about her. So, yeah, wait, is 830 00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:54,600 Speaker 1: such a weird thing. It just triggers people, Monica said. 831 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 1: And the most triggering thing is if somebody is fat 832 00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:58,879 Speaker 1: and they don't just fucking hate themselves for it. 833 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,239 Speaker 4: I don't know why you love yourself being fat, act 834 00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:05,759 Speaker 4: like something that like it's a mental disease or something. 835 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,879 Speaker 2: I know, I like my body the way it. 836 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 1: Is, especially if it's a black woman, They fucking like 837 00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 1: it's like the devil just jumped up out of them. 838 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:19,200 Speaker 1: So what the fuck? No, And maybe it's because, you know, historically, 839 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 1: black women's bodies have been so so they've been owned, 840 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:29,800 Speaker 1: they've been property, they've been so heavily critiqued. They've been 841 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:35,600 Speaker 1: demonized for at once not being like a white woman's body, 842 00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,279 Speaker 1: but at the same time we praised white women for 843 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:43,319 Speaker 1: having the figure we attribute to black women. So it's 844 00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 1: just very it's like such a weird thing. So maybe 845 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:48,760 Speaker 1: that's part of it too, But man, I really hate it, 846 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:51,839 Speaker 1: Monica says. I found an idea of having public debate 847 00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:55,280 Speaker 1: on TV again intriguing. Those debate programs from the sixties 848 00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 1: and seventies were quite long in duration, and today I 849 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:00,720 Speaker 1: think they've been replaced with talking heads and sound bites 850 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 1: on some news networks and maybe the Sunday morning politics shows. 851 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:07,840 Speaker 1: But these seconds, seconds long back and forth are no 852 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:10,880 Speaker 1: longer proper debates. They end up being just quotes in 853 00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 1: search of virality. It's only talking, not listening. Yeah, you 854 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:21,799 Speaker 1: know what I were compared to, It was like, it's 855 00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 1: like we have turned the game of basketball. Like, let's say, 856 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 1: long form debates used to be like watching a two 857 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,399 Speaker 1: and a half hour game of basketball. As I guess, 858 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:33,160 Speaker 1: at some point people went, this is born. I don't 859 00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 1: want to see this, blah blah blah. So what happened 860 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 1: instead is that they said, well, what do you want 861 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 1: to see? It's like, I like the dunk contest, and 862 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 1: so we have just turned basketball into the dunk contest. 863 00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: And then this is like what happens is if you 864 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 1: make everything the dunk contest, everything has a lot less substance, 865 00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:56,719 Speaker 1: you know, the tone, the pacing, Like Lebron James is 866 00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 1: no longer the best player in the world. If the basketball, 867 00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:02,360 Speaker 1: if they tired game of basketball is just a dunk contest, 868 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,600 Speaker 1: then then we're like, yeah, Vince Carter is the greatest 869 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 1: basketball player to ever play. Michael Jordan is up there. 870 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:10,040 Speaker 2: But he ain't. 871 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 1: He ain't the top no more. You know that kind 872 00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 1: of thing. That's what it feels like. We did to 873 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:17,960 Speaker 1: public discourse where it's like, okay, but how can we 874 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,800 Speaker 1: turn this into a thirty second clip back and forth 875 00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 1: dunk contest where at the end of it we go, oh, 876 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:27,319 Speaker 1: Donald lemon zinged him, and that has replaced what we 877 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:28,640 Speaker 1: used to have public debate. 878 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:29,280 Speaker 2: Correct. 879 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:33,840 Speaker 1: Someone sent me a link to a podcast. It was 880 00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:36,160 Speaker 1: like the dark Horse Podcast, and it had all these 881 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:41,400 Speaker 1: black academics, this round table quote unquote talking about the 882 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 1: race problem. It was two hours long. The only problem 883 00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: was I thought it had too many people on. It 884 00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:49,200 Speaker 1: had like six or seven different people talking when it 885 00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 1: should have had about two or three. But the point 886 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:55,799 Speaker 1: being it was a it was a rigorous discussion that 887 00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:58,520 Speaker 1: you know, I didn't really agree with a lot of it, 888 00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:01,880 Speaker 1: or you know, because it had certain conservative type leaning 889 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 1: black people. You know, when you're talking academics, it's really 890 00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:11,120 Speaker 1: for aloof. It's very aloof. They're very distant from the problem. 891 00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:14,440 Speaker 1: That's not they don't really see the humanity and the problem. 892 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:17,120 Speaker 1: They might cherry pick a couple of anecdotal examples. But 893 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:20,480 Speaker 1: they don't really see the people as human. They see 894 00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:23,600 Speaker 1: this is a problem to have things prescribed to it, right, 895 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:29,240 Speaker 1: And I'm listening to them and whatnot and it. But 896 00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:31,239 Speaker 1: but there was something about it where I listened to 897 00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:33,080 Speaker 1: the whole two hours because I was like, oh cool, 898 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 1: a long form discussion on a long form problem. You know, 899 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:39,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to see you try to wrap up 900 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:41,960 Speaker 1: race in ten minutes. It's never gonna be able to 901 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 1: You're not gonna be able to touch it in any 902 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:50,480 Speaker 1: you know, in any way that actually is tangible. Agreed, 903 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:54,680 Speaker 1: So yeah, we do. We no longer have the attention 904 00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:58,000 Speaker 1: span for watching long in depth discussions, not on network 905 00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:02,200 Speaker 1: TV television, but the a podcast in digital presentation that workshops, 906 00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:04,440 Speaker 1: especially during the pandemic, lets we know people will show 907 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:08,319 Speaker 1: up for listening. There's a company called Intelligence Square that 908 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 1: has been hosting live debates all over the world since 909 00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:14,920 Speaker 1: two thousand and two. Okay, I didn't know about that. 910 00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 1: They post all their debates on their YouTube channel. They 911 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,280 Speaker 1: even have some virtual ones on there. Now. I always 912 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:23,800 Speaker 1: wanted to go on there. They were usually hosted at NYU, 913 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 1: but I never got to go. You reminded me of them. 914 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 1: Public debates still remain kind of a niche event. That 915 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:32,960 Speaker 1: makes sense, Yeah, I mean that's the thing is, I 916 00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,160 Speaker 1: don't know that the public debate is ever gonna be 917 00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:39,319 Speaker 1: better TV than The Bachelor, you know, like for what 918 00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:42,319 Speaker 1: TV is trying to do and what a debate is 919 00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:45,200 Speaker 1: trying to do, Like the goal is to get you 920 00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:50,240 Speaker 1: to watch between commercials. Whether or not this dude is 921 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:54,480 Speaker 1: gonna cheat or have some racist tweets or whatever, is 922 00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:58,360 Speaker 1: much more compelling than sitting down and watching Tita HOOSEI 923 00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 1: coach and that mcwater mcchorter dude go back and forth 924 00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:05,239 Speaker 1: about race. Most people are gonna tap out, So I 925 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:12,040 Speaker 1: get it. Kyle Quero knee exactly. Oh okay, so Evie says, 926 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:15,239 Speaker 1: Kylequerrol knew exactly what he was doing. He just didn't 927 00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:18,880 Speaker 1: expect the backlash. He is trash for that. I don't 928 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:21,560 Speaker 1: even remember who Kyle Carol is. Now you remember who 929 00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 1: that was? 930 00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:22,759 Speaker 2: You know? 931 00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 1: I don't, Man, it's been Oh it was the dude 932 00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 1: talking about Jill Scott. Yeah, ain't got some shit. He 933 00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:31,080 Speaker 1: pissed the all internet off three days later, I'm like, 934 00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:33,759 Speaker 1: who the fuck who? And he played football, and I 935 00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:35,759 Speaker 1: don't know who he is. You know, I'm always you know, 936 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,560 Speaker 1: my answer is who he gotta get better at football 937 00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:41,520 Speaker 1: for me to keep up. 938 00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:43,479 Speaker 3: Would you like to see a return of public debate 939 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:43,879 Speaker 3: on TV? 940 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:44,279 Speaker 2: Yes? 941 00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:44,600 Speaker 7: No? 942 00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:45,839 Speaker 1: Or I don't care either way? 943 00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:49,000 Speaker 3: Care, I don't care, all right, Karen's in the thirty percent. 944 00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 1: I'm in the yes category, So fifty five percent of 945 00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:54,640 Speaker 1: people want to see it and fifteen percent say no. 946 00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:57,400 Speaker 1: And I would like to see Maybe Netflix could just 947 00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:00,239 Speaker 1: do it or something like, I just want to see it, man, Like, 948 00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:03,600 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if there's an audience for this shit. 949 00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:07,319 Speaker 1: I don't know. MS Bond says absolutely. Social media has 950 00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:11,000 Speaker 1: got folks so complacent to say any crazy thing behind 951 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:13,160 Speaker 1: the keyboard. If there was a face to face discussion, 952 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,680 Speaker 1: I promise it would change the course of the conversation. 953 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,680 Speaker 1: I think so too. I think so too. I think 954 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 1: also some of these ideas they fall flat upon rigorous 955 00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:30,800 Speaker 1: examination or when you start asking for long form discussions. 956 00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 1: And I think that's a very telling thing about these 957 00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:41,320 Speaker 1: ideas and how how unsolvable some problems are, but also how. 958 00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:45,920 Speaker 3: Bombastic people talk online when they when. 959 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:47,800 Speaker 1: They really know The reason they can say that is 960 00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:50,439 Speaker 1: because they don't have to have a solution, they don't 961 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:52,719 Speaker 1: have to have a reality. They can just throw it 962 00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:55,400 Speaker 1: out in the theory and the etherol space of social 963 00:50:55,440 --> 00:50:58,359 Speaker 1: media or the internet and just walk away like, yeah, 964 00:50:58,719 --> 00:50:59,239 Speaker 1: what about it? 965 00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:02,280 Speaker 2: Explain no depth, no critical thinking. 966 00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:04,840 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, I would love to see some of the 967 00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:06,920 Speaker 1: stuff have to be fleshed out and for you to 968 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:09,200 Speaker 1: and for if you don't have an answer, for us 969 00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:10,879 Speaker 1: to see it and be like, oh, okay, they don't 970 00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 1: have an answer beyond this, you know, to have someone 971 00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:16,799 Speaker 1: because it's different in an interview where the interviewer is 972 00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:18,920 Speaker 1: trying to help you. You know, I do interviews on 973 00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:20,839 Speaker 1: our show. I'm always trying to help the person I'm 974 00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,600 Speaker 1: an interviewing. I'm I don't really do hostile interviews. So 975 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:25,399 Speaker 1: if they seem like they don't got an answer to that, 976 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:28,080 Speaker 1: all right, cool, we gotta move on.

So, but in the debate, 979 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:36,480 Speaker 1: it's the opposite your your opponent in that debate, the 980 00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:39,240 Speaker 1: person on the stage is is gonna try to be like, hey, 981 00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:42,160 Speaker 1: this is the weakness in your argument, you know, like 982 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:45,840 Speaker 1: you gotta fashion something out of that. So anyway, twenty 983 00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:49,480 Speaker 1: one forty, Reagan returns Our Girl, Reagan Go Mass came 984 00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:52,800 Speaker 1: back on.

It was definitely a wake up call. I 991 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:13,040 Speaker 1: didn't even realize that every marriage is different until I 992 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:16,480 Speaker 1: heard her say that, which is absolutely insane.

It is amazing how 998 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:36,000 Speaker 4: many women get, particularly newly wed women, particularly when they 999 00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:40,480 Speaker 4: get younger, get married and just do ridiculous shit because it's. 1000 00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:41,440 Speaker 2: The way you thought it was gonna be. 1001 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:43,359 Speaker 4: I'm gonna be like my mama, if my mama would 1002 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:46,360 Speaker 4: stay at home wife. You know, sometimes some women go 1003 00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:48,160 Speaker 4: that route because that's the way they think they supposed 1004 00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:50,319 Speaker 4: to do. They think if their mama worked from home 1005 00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:52,000 Speaker 4: and cook them clean and took care of the children, 1006 00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:54,120 Speaker 4: you know why the husband billy did nothing.

But they just have to be vocal 1021 00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:32,040 Speaker 4: and demand and actually just ask, like you know, and 1022 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 4: sometimes women are afraid to ax men for help because 1023 00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:37,000 Speaker 4: they don't know how the man is going to respond 1024 00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:40,280 Speaker 4: a lot of times either. And so you know, most 1025 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 4: good men, loving men and kind men, especially if they 1026 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:46,040 Speaker 4: left their mouth, actually want to help with the kids. 1027 00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:48,120 Speaker 2: They actually want to help. And some women, you have 1028 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:48,839 Speaker 2: this thing on my. 1029 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:51,080 Speaker 4: MoMA always did it, and so you have this pride 1030 00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:53,759 Speaker 4: sometimes as a woman is if I don't cook and 1031 00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:55,279 Speaker 4: clean and take care of my kid, if I don't 1032 00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:56,840 Speaker 4: do this, I have failed as a woman. 1033 00:53:57,280 --> 00:53:58,160 Speaker 2: And that's not true. 1034 00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:00,680 Speaker 4: You're fucking exhausted, and then we and your mate wants 1035 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:01,960 Speaker 4: still want to be intimate with you. 1036 00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:06,239 Speaker 2: You're tired because you're you know, you've been working for. 1037 00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:09,640 Speaker 4: Like fourteen hours, fifteen hours, twenty hours, go to bed 1038 00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:11,360 Speaker 4: and you just want to sleep. You don't want to 1039 00:54:11,400 --> 00:54:13,239 Speaker 4: actually be intimate with your mate. But being intimate with 1040 00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:14,879 Speaker 4: your mate is a part of the relationship too. 1041 00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:17,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, And men have a checklist in their head too, 1042 00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:21,240 Speaker 1: from all this bullshit expectations and stuff we've been taught. 1043 00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:23,759 Speaker 1: So you end up with men that think, you know, 1044 00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:29,919 Speaker 1: marriage is just about sexual performance, it's just about how much. 1045 00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:33,600 Speaker 1: Hold on a second, let me pause this. So yeah, 1046 00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:36,399 Speaker 1: men believe in gender roles and stuff like that too, 1047 00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:37,840 Speaker 1: and I think a lot of times it ends up 1048 00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:39,799 Speaker 1: being destructive to the household because you end up with 1049 00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:42,960 Speaker 1: man tying their egos and stuff like how much money 1050 00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:47,320 Speaker 1: they bring into the house. Materialistic shit, what kind of 1051 00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:51,520 Speaker 1: having a job, what kind of job? You know, all 1052 00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:55,040 Speaker 1: these physical attributes and being emotionally distant and all this 1053 00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:58,160 Speaker 1: different stuff, and you know, just I'm just gonna watch 1054 00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:01,879 Speaker 1: football in the man cave and you know, the keep 1055 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:04,279 Speaker 1: these damn kids out of my way. And it all 1056 00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:09,600 Speaker 1: hurts uh men in these situations, and it's it's mostly 1057 00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:12,480 Speaker 1: harm you're inflicting on yourself. And I think also it 1058 00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:15,439 Speaker 1: teaches women don't stand up, just do just do the work, 1059 00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:17,480 Speaker 1: just do this, do the you know, a good woman 1060 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:20,359 Speaker 1: would do blank And these these weird archetypes that are 1061 00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:24,839 Speaker 1: based on white supremacist, patriarchal capitalist ideals. 1062 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:27,759 Speaker 3: That's been happening since we were fucking like. 1063 00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:31,520 Speaker 1: You know, since slavery and shit, where a white man 1064 00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:33,920 Speaker 1: earned all the money, his wife was expected to fucking 1065 00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:35,960 Speaker 1: do all the shit in the house because that's how 1066 00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:37,680 Speaker 1: much white men used to make at the time, and 1067 00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:39,440 Speaker 1: white men were the only ones that could have jobs 1068 00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:41,840 Speaker 1: and all this shit, and then just the world change 1069 00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:44,120 Speaker 1: where two people in the household don't have jobs, they're 1070 00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:49,719 Speaker 1: probably not doing too well. You know, where childcare is 1071 00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:52,200 Speaker 1: more than a woman's job. It's the only it's not 1072 00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:55,160 Speaker 1: the only thing she's responsible for anymore. So you just 1073 00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:57,799 Speaker 1: end up with all these different situations that people still 1074 00:55:57,800 --> 00:56:00,400 Speaker 1: want to treat like the old school situation. And I 1075 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:03,120 Speaker 1: think that's why you have people that think marriage is 1076 00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:06,239 Speaker 1: still you know that they keep trying to make it, 1077 00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:09,439 Speaker 1: keep trying to turn it back into that, and that's 1078 00:56:09,440 --> 00:56:09,960 Speaker 1: what happens. 1079 00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:14,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, And also I am thankful for people fighting to 1080 00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:16,120 Speaker 4: change the definition of marriage. 1081 00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:16,680 Speaker 2: I'm just keep that. 1082 00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:20,279 Speaker 4: Really, I'm here for people saying no, no, no, this 1083 00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:22,360 Speaker 4: normal shit is not a marriage. 1084 00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:26,319 Speaker 2: Like marriage has all types of definitions. Marriage has all 1085 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:26,919 Speaker 2: types of. 1086 00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:31,360 Speaker 1: Meanings, not even just marriage like relationships like it's also 1087 00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:34,600 Speaker 1: like it reminds me of the book Conflict Is Not Abuse, 1088 00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:36,720 Speaker 1: And she talks about one of the mistakes she thinks 1089 00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:40,799 Speaker 1: that a lot of LGBTQ people made when pushing for 1090 00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:45,080 Speaker 1: a marriage quality is that it then reframed a lot 1091 00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:50,960 Speaker 1: of LGBTQ relationships that had broken the mold of patriarchy, 1092 00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:54,120 Speaker 1: that had broken the mold of monogamy, broken the mode 1093 00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:58,480 Speaker 1: of you know, marriage, and it turned people into like, 1094 00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:02,040 Speaker 1: it's not respectable if it doesn't turn into man woman 1095 00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 1: or or man man or woman woman or trans person 1096 00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:09,919 Speaker 1: like one person, one person, monogamous relationship is the goal, 1097 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:14,640 Speaker 1: and so the limits of the definition of marriage fucked 1098 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:17,640 Speaker 1: it up for in her mind, like this now has 1099 00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:20,560 Speaker 1: pushed us back. It's some like, yes, we should be 1100 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:22,680 Speaker 1: had a right to get married all that stuff, but 1101 00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:25,840 Speaker 1: also in the right to get married, we turned into 1102 00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:27,919 Speaker 1: the pursuit to get married. And once it turned into 1103 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:31,360 Speaker 1: the pursuit to get married, is marriage actually a happy 1104 00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:35,120 Speaker 1: making initiative for everybody? Is this a thing for everyone 1105 00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:37,360 Speaker 1: to want? And I mean, it's just deep questions like that. 1106 00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:41,840 Speaker 1: And as Cheyenne new said, you know, Karen said, every 1107 00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:44,320 Speaker 1: marriage is different, and I think that's true, Like every 1108 00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:47,760 Speaker 1: person is different, So how can two people have the 1109 00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:51,080 Speaker 1: same relationship as two different people? That doesn't even make sense. 1110 00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:55,920 Speaker 4: So because everybody, you and your your significant other, spouse 1111 00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:59,680 Speaker 4: or a group of people all have different life experiences 1112 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:02,920 Speaker 4: than your parents. You live raised in different generations, so 1113 00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:06,920 Speaker 4: your expectations and what you think that your partner partner 1114 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:10,240 Speaker 4: should be and like, like the definitions have changed, So 1115 00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:10,880 Speaker 4: why would you. 1116 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:14,520 Speaker 2: Expect to have the exact same marriage as somebody else? 1117 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:16,720 Speaker 1: And it's because we get taught this shit, because we 1118 00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:18,960 Speaker 1: all get taught the same fairy tales and we think 1119 00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:21,880 Speaker 1: that that's right. And then and then we punish ourselves 1120 00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:24,440 Speaker 1: and make ourselves feel like failures for not living up 1121 00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:27,080 Speaker 1: to this. You know, if you get divorced, you don't 1122 00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:30,160 Speaker 1: if you have a child and you're not married, if 1123 00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:32,440 Speaker 1: you have a child and he leaves, if ever, Like, 1124 00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:34,880 Speaker 1: it's just all these different things. It's like, that doesn't 1125 00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:38,560 Speaker 1: make sense. Everybody's life is fucking different. No, it's not 1126 00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:43,200 Speaker 1: gonna flow together in this perfect harmony of foreverness for 1127 00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:45,280 Speaker 1: two people forever. Yeah. 1128 00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:45,400 Speaker 2: No. 1129 00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:49,320 Speaker 4: Also, the thing is, quote I'm gonna say quote unquote, 1130 00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:53,880 Speaker 4: even if it's something where the roles reverse, where the 1131 00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:56,720 Speaker 4: woman actually makes more money than the man, the woman 1132 00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:58,840 Speaker 4: actually works outside of the house, the man is at 1133 00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:01,080 Speaker 4: home all of a sudden, and he's less than a math. 1134 00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:04,840 Speaker 1: Right. Yes, all these weird, just weird shit that don't 1135 00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:07,160 Speaker 1: have nothing to do with it, just like Lizzo's body and 1136 00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:09,040 Speaker 1: all this stuff. It doesn't really have much to do 1137 00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:11,640 Speaker 1: with other people, but we keep in certain ourselves. That's 1138 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:14,360 Speaker 1: why people got so obsessed with Will and Jada is 1139 00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 1: because we want to peek into their life to see 1140 00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:20,760 Speaker 1: what it says about our own. Ms. Barnes says, one 1141 00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:22,600 Speaker 1: of the many beautiful things about this podcast are the 1142 00:59:22,600 --> 00:59:26,160 Speaker 1: guests that you bring, mainly because I learned something new 1143 00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:28,800 Speaker 1: every time. Sadly, I had no idea who Reagan Gomez was, 1144 00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:31,000 Speaker 1: but if she was talking, I was thinking to myself, Damn, 1145 00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:33,439 Speaker 1: she sounds so much like Roberta from the Cleveland Show. 1146 00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:37,000 Speaker 1: I'm subscribing to a podcast at adding Queen Sugar to 1147 00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:40,040 Speaker 1: my watch list. Thank you again for highlighting talented folks 1148 00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:46,320 Speaker 1: like Reagan. Absolutely big fan. Yes, Trey says, Hey, Rod 1149 00:59:46,320 --> 00:59:48,480 Speaker 1: and Karen, thank you so much for having Reagan on. 1150 00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:50,120 Speaker 1: She was such a great guest and a breath of 1151 00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:54,400 Speaker 1: fresh air Hashtagsaria Peterson have. I feel for her and 1152 00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 1: every parent and teacher out there deciding on whether or 1153 00:59:56,920 --> 00:59:59,560 Speaker 1: not to send their kids back to school. I don't 1154 00:59:59,560 --> 01:00:03,240 Speaker 1: even have and it has my nerves bad lol. Hopefully 1155 01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:04,920 Speaker 1: parents will do what they need to do to keep 1156 01:00:04,960 --> 01:00:08,880 Speaker 1: their kids safe. We can only hope. On Will and Jado, Jada. 1157 01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:12,240 Speaker 1: On Will and Jada, kudos to them for being open 1158 01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:14,800 Speaker 1: in eyes about their relationship. I'm still shocked that they 1159 01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:16,840 Speaker 1: were willing to be that open about their relationship because 1160 01:00:16,840 --> 01:00:19,439 Speaker 1: they could have easily ignored it. A lot about it, Yeah, 1161 01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:21,920 Speaker 1: and that's you know, and honestly, just depends on what 1162 01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:25,000 Speaker 1: you're projecting, because none of us know the truth. Some 1163 01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:26,840 Speaker 1: people think they did get up there and lie, So 1164 01:00:26,920 --> 01:00:28,840 Speaker 1: I don't even you know, I don't even know that 1165 01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:30,680 Speaker 1: they told the truth of it. I know how it 1166 01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:33,760 Speaker 1: felt to me and the way that I'm projecting on 1167 01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:36,120 Speaker 1: the shit, but I'm smart enough to know I don't 1168 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:36,840 Speaker 1: know what the fuck. 1169 01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:38,720 Speaker 2: Is going on, and yeah, nobody does. 1170 01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:40,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, but see that's the thing a lot of people 1171 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:43,520 Speaker 1: think they do. It's why I don't really like discussing 1172 01:00:43,520 --> 01:00:46,280 Speaker 1: it with people, because they really will sit up there 1173 01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:48,960 Speaker 1: and tell you as if you fucking are insane and 1174 01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:51,640 Speaker 1: just came up with these theories. It's like we're all 1175 01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:55,160 Speaker 1: coming up with theories. None of us know shit, you know. Anyway, 1176 01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:57,520 Speaker 1: it definitely seems like they took the time to sit 1177 01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:00,280 Speaker 1: down one another and really define what they know their 1178 01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:02,960 Speaker 1: relationship is. That is very powerful when you think about it. 1179 01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:05,360 Speaker 1: In the end, it seems they grew from it emotionally, 1180 01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:08,720 Speaker 1: So again, kudos to them. Yeah, man, like I said, 1181 01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:13,520 Speaker 1: I do, at least from what they told me, what 1182 01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:17,200 Speaker 1: they told the world, it seemed to me like more 1183 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:21,720 Speaker 1: believable than this alternative where they have open relationship with 1184 01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:24,720 Speaker 1: all these nbas and that no one's ever snitched. 1185 01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:27,040 Speaker 4: Because I think if that was maybe, like I said, 1186 01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:28,880 Speaker 4: this is me checked, and I think if that was 1187 01:01:28,880 --> 01:01:30,920 Speaker 4: the truth, they would they would have came out and 1188 01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:31,480 Speaker 4: said that. 1189 01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:33,600 Speaker 1: I just think it's easy. I think it's an easier 1190 01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:37,080 Speaker 1: sale when everyone already thinks it correct because there's no like, honestly, 1191 01:01:37,080 --> 01:01:38,840 Speaker 1: people would almost be bored if they would have came 1192 01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:40,720 Speaker 1: out and said, we're just in an open relationship, y'all, 1193 01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:43,120 Speaker 1: this is just one of the one of our jump 1194 01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:46,320 Speaker 1: if was just acting stupid back and North, yeah, everybody 1195 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:48,320 Speaker 1: would be like, well, that's what we've been said now, 1196 01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:50,760 Speaker 1: you know. But I think in a weird way, it's 1197 01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:53,400 Speaker 1: disappointing the people because they built them up. It's just like, 1198 01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:56,960 Speaker 1: this is how you run an open relationship. No one 1199 01:01:57,000 --> 01:02:00,080 Speaker 1: ever knows their business. They've been going around fucking and 1200 01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:03,040 Speaker 1: sucking everybody and it's just as quiet as kept And 1201 01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:06,160 Speaker 1: when that didn't happen, it's like, well, damn, I've been 1202 01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:09,360 Speaker 1: saying that this is what open relationships look like. And 1203 01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:11,840 Speaker 1: these are two of the most well liked, beautiful people 1204 01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 1: in Hollywood, and they just said it was some quasi 1205 01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:19,200 Speaker 1: cheating type shit. Well then fucked them. You know. So 1206 01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:21,160 Speaker 1: I don't, like I said, I don't put a lot 1207 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:23,680 Speaker 1: of hope and faith and celebrity anyway. 1208 01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:26,080 Speaker 3: But it just all feels like we're projecting. 1209 01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:28,720 Speaker 1: I don't think I know anything more about them than 1210 01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:32,200 Speaker 1: what they said in the interview. You know, and I 1211 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:35,360 Speaker 1: watched the interview. I watched the whole thing, so you know, 1212 01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:38,280 Speaker 1: it just I still didn't walk away, like and now 1213 01:02:38,320 --> 01:02:40,280 Speaker 1: I figured it out. I'm just like, I don't know, 1214 01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:45,280 Speaker 1: Maybe they telling the truth. Finally, I hope Reagan gets 1215 01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:48,000 Speaker 1: to direct more TV series. I remember her talking on 1216 01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:51,800 Speaker 1: Twitter about shadowing the legendary director Julia Julie Dash on 1217 01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:55,920 Speaker 1: The Queen Sugar set her show idea, she mentioned sounds dope. 1218 01:02:56,080 --> 01:02:57,920 Speaker 1: I could definitely see it on free Form or the 1219 01:02:57,920 --> 01:03:01,520 Speaker 1: c W.

But I think when 1313 01:07:41,240 --> 01:07:43,640 Speaker 1: you just go, well, fuck it, I ain't got nothing 1314 01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:45,480 Speaker 1: to do with it.

You know, if they were just 1323 01:08:11,280 --> 01:08:13,680 Speaker 1: making jokes about, yeah he got killed, ha haa haa, 1324 01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:16,519 Speaker 1: it wasn't it hilarious, I would not fuck with them 1325 01:08:16,560 --> 01:08:18,720 Speaker 1: because this is a real thing to me. This is 1326 01:08:18,760 --> 01:08:22,600 Speaker 1: something that is happening a lot in America, you know. 1327 01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:25,519 Speaker 1: And so I'm like when you when I when these 1328 01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:28,559 Speaker 1: things affect me emotionally, No, I don't want to see 1329 01:08:28,560 --> 01:08:31,519 Speaker 1: it be fotter for a joke because it's it's it's 1330 01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:33,559 Speaker 1: not a joke to me in that type of way, 1331 01:08:33,680 --> 01:08:35,720 Speaker 1: because it's still a real problem. And I feel like 1332 01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:41,080 Speaker 1: the attitude of belittling it, normalizing it adds to the 1333 01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:44,519 Speaker 1: thing happening that's you know. That's so that's why people 1334 01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:46,800 Speaker 1: say stuff like you can't joke about blank, blank and blank. 1335 01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:50,719 Speaker 1: What they're really saying is don't trivialize it. It doesn't 1336 01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:52,360 Speaker 1: really mean you can't joke about it. You come up 1337 01:08:52,400 --> 01:08:55,559 Speaker 1: with a good enough joke, shit, people gonna laugh even 1338 01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:56,160 Speaker 1: if it's wrong. 1339 01:08:56,200 --> 01:08:58,200 Speaker 3: People will laugh if the joke is good enough. 1340 01:08:58,560 --> 01:09:03,920 Speaker 1: But to trivialize something is where people start feeling like, well, damn, 1341 01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:06,879 Speaker 1: what is the point here? You know. It's the difference 1342 01:09:06,880 --> 01:09:11,320 Speaker 1: between Dave Chappelle's first special when he came on Netflix 1343 01:09:11,360 --> 01:09:14,519 Speaker 1: and he made a couple transphobic jokes, mostly about Caitlyn 1344 01:09:14,560 --> 01:09:17,800 Speaker 1: Jenner and all this shit, but then the last not 1345 01:09:18,320 --> 01:09:20,639 Speaker 1: the eight forty six, but the one before that, where 1346 01:09:20,720 --> 01:09:23,040 Speaker 1: it was just mean and it was just like, you know, 1347 01:09:23,200 --> 01:09:26,240 Speaker 1: twenty thirty minutes of just transphobic material because he had 1348 01:09:26,720 --> 01:09:30,840 Speaker 1: become so fucking like, I don't know, triggered by people 1349 01:09:30,960 --> 01:09:32,960 Speaker 1: not liking that he did it, that he wanted to 1350 01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:35,759 Speaker 1: like prove some type of point. It's the difference between 1351 01:09:35,760 --> 01:09:39,120 Speaker 1: those two things. I think when it comes to this, 1352 01:09:40,360 --> 01:09:44,479 Speaker 1: oh you about to say something, okay, So yeah, anyway, 1353 01:09:44,520 --> 01:09:48,080 Speaker 1: all that stuff to say, the anti semitism shit, it's 1354 01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:52,000 Speaker 1: not even jokes. And I think we as black people, 1355 01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:55,519 Speaker 1: it's just it's whack to see black people hide behind 1356 01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:57,880 Speaker 1: being black as a reason that this is okay. 1357 01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:02,320 Speaker 4: Come on you wouldn't you would tolerate that with white people. 1358 01:10:02,360 --> 01:10:04,479 Speaker 4: We are not We're not we are not a special 1359 01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:07,000 Speaker 4: group just because we've been oppressed, mode of right. 1360 01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:10,120 Speaker 1: It's just whack. It's like, because we can't prove that 1361 01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:13,639 Speaker 1: this is a thing that black people are exerting force 1362 01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:18,000 Speaker 1: on Jewish people with that somehow that's okay. You know, 1363 01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:20,599 Speaker 1: it's the the u. This is the thing that people 1364 01:10:20,640 --> 01:10:24,040 Speaker 1: always defend Louis Farrakhn with and I'm always like, nah, 1365 01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:27,040 Speaker 1: you can't. Then you not about it, then stop judging people, 1366 01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:29,720 Speaker 1: don't look down on nobody, because because if you're like 1367 01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:33,680 Speaker 1: upholding Louis Farrakhn and saying, let's just forget about the transphobia, 1368 01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:36,760 Speaker 1: let's forget about the missogyny, let's forget about the homophobia, 1369 01:10:36,840 --> 01:10:39,720 Speaker 1: let's forget about the anti semitism. Isn't he a good guy? 1370 01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:42,840 Speaker 1: It's like, nah, because you don't accept that from nobody else, 1371 01:10:43,520 --> 01:10:45,720 Speaker 1: and you damn show and then they go, well, I 1372 01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:47,280 Speaker 1: mean it's not like he got a lot of power, 1373 01:10:47,360 --> 01:10:48,960 Speaker 1: so it's not like he can do anything. It's like 1374 01:10:49,439 --> 01:10:52,840 Speaker 1: that doesn't make it okay, right, because if we're really 1375 01:10:52,880 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 1: being real, the average white person don't have a lot 1376 01:10:55,360 --> 01:10:57,400 Speaker 1: of power. And y'all want a motherfucker to go to 1377 01:10:57,479 --> 01:11:00,240 Speaker 1: jail for calling the police on a nigga because you 1378 01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:03,160 Speaker 1: want her to put her dog up.

So, you know, 1381 01:11:09,320 --> 01:11:11,799 Speaker 1: I think we need to we need to be vigilant 1382 01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:15,439 Speaker 1: about that, you know, or at least at least don't 1383 01:11:15,520 --> 01:11:18,000 Speaker 1: let people hide behind being black based off of it. 1384 01:11:18,040 --> 01:11:21,080 Speaker 1: I don't care if you know, we're not gonna make 1385 01:11:21,160 --> 01:11:23,880 Speaker 1: Hotep stop whole tepping.

They don't care. Nick Cannon didn't care 1389 01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:34,200 Speaker 1: until some motherfucking money got missing. So it ain't that. 1390 01:11:34,240 --> 01:11:36,559 Speaker 1: Ain't ain't just that. But it's just for your own sake, 1391 01:11:36,600 --> 01:11:40,519 Speaker 1: for your own soul, Like, let not denounce that shit. 1392 01:11:40,560 --> 01:11:42,800 Speaker 1: And if you not hip on what anti semitism is, 1393 01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:46,120 Speaker 1: look it up.

Now also watched Frozen, and I 1602 01:23:02,560 --> 01:23:07,960 Speaker 8: felt lied too, And this is why Niggas was telling 1603 01:23:08,000 --> 01:23:11,320 Speaker 8: me Frozen is the best thing since since Slice Bread. 1604 01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:14,639 Speaker 8: Oh my god, Elsa. Everybody dressed enough as Elsa for Halloween. 1605 01:23:14,880 --> 01:23:18,000 Speaker 8: When Anna was my bitch, that was my homegirl, I 1606 01:23:18,080 --> 01:23:18,720 Speaker 8: fucked with her. 1607 01:23:19,040 --> 01:23:20,000 Speaker 9: She was Rider's Eye, so. 1608 01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:22,760 Speaker 8: Her damn sister who ain't really it wasn't really trying 1609 01:23:22,800 --> 01:23:24,439 Speaker 8: to fuck with her because of course, I mean she 1610 01:23:24,439 --> 01:23:26,520 Speaker 8: probably would have killed her with a lightning. 1611 01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:27,960 Speaker 1: And the and the ice stuff. Okay, cool. 1612 01:23:30,080 --> 01:23:34,240 Speaker 8: However, I also felt lied too, and I was told 1613 01:23:34,280 --> 01:23:37,559 Speaker 8: by apple Care that let it Go was awesome. But meanwhile, 1614 01:23:37,600 --> 01:23:40,280 Speaker 8: love is an open door slash way harder than let 1615 01:23:40,280 --> 01:23:43,600 Speaker 8: it go. How dare y'all? I don't get it. I 1616 01:23:43,640 --> 01:23:48,599 Speaker 8: am very frustrated, and I'm upset. And I knew that 1617 01:23:48,600 --> 01:23:51,800 Speaker 8: that Prince Nigga was was full of ship from the 1618 01:23:51,920 --> 01:23:53,080 Speaker 8: very moment that I saw. 1619 01:23:53,560 --> 01:23:56,320 Speaker 1: Oh she got cut off. Now I haven't seen Frozen, 1620 01:23:56,360 --> 01:24:02,400 Speaker 1: so this is all. I haven't seen Frozen to see 1621 01:24:02,439 --> 01:24:08,280 Speaker 1: it frozen? Okay, all right, it's came again. 1622 01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:10,000 Speaker 8: Of course you knew a bitch was gonna get cut 1623 01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:13,040 Speaker 8: off because everybody got cut off on this line. And 1624 01:24:13,080 --> 01:24:15,040 Speaker 8: I laughed at everybody else when they got cut off. 1625 01:24:15,080 --> 01:24:19,120 Speaker 8: And here I go, looking dumb. Anyway, getting back Amazon 1626 01:24:19,240 --> 01:24:23,800 Speaker 8: is here, getting back to parasite. I think one of 1627 01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:26,559 Speaker 8: my favorite shots in the in the whole movie was 1628 01:24:27,800 --> 01:24:31,439 Speaker 8: when they found out that the maids had a peach 1629 01:24:31,520 --> 01:24:35,559 Speaker 8: allergy and they were shaving the peach stuff onto like 1630 01:24:35,640 --> 01:24:39,760 Speaker 8: her her things. That was crazy. I also thought that 1631 01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:43,160 Speaker 8: they had killed her when they like smashed her face 1632 01:24:43,200 --> 01:24:44,200 Speaker 8: into some peach stuff. 1633 01:24:45,760 --> 01:24:47,080 Speaker 1: So there were so many moments. 1634 01:24:46,880 --> 01:24:48,759 Speaker 8: Where I was like, Okay, that lady is dead. 1635 01:24:49,120 --> 01:24:50,559 Speaker 9: Meanwhile, she wasn't really dead. 1636 01:24:53,200 --> 01:24:57,000 Speaker 8: And it just got really really reckless and crazy at 1637 01:24:57,000 --> 01:25:03,080 Speaker 8: the end, and I felt like I was. It was 1638 01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:08,240 Speaker 8: very relatable content in terms of y'all are trying to 1639 01:25:08,280 --> 01:25:11,000 Speaker 8: be a parasite and siping off of the riches of 1640 01:25:11,080 --> 01:25:15,200 Speaker 8: these people and feel everybody's job so that your whole 1641 01:25:15,360 --> 01:25:18,839 Speaker 8: entire family could come up off of these people. Meanwhile, 1642 01:25:18,920 --> 01:25:22,040 Speaker 8: somebody had already came up off of them, and then 1643 01:25:22,080 --> 01:25:25,080 Speaker 8: you ended up in the same situation as the nigga 1644 01:25:25,120 --> 01:25:26,000 Speaker 8: that was in the basement. 1645 01:25:26,200 --> 01:25:27,639 Speaker 1: So boomed and. 1646 01:25:27,560 --> 01:25:29,800 Speaker 8: You're not gonna get out of there because it is 1647 01:25:29,840 --> 01:25:33,200 Speaker 8: what it is. However, I'm wondering if when they sell 1648 01:25:33,240 --> 01:25:37,280 Speaker 8: that house, are they going to uncover the locked like 1649 01:25:37,280 --> 01:25:37,919 Speaker 8: like they've. 1650 01:25:37,680 --> 01:25:38,479 Speaker 1: Got to move that. 1651 01:25:40,439 --> 01:25:43,080 Speaker 8: Bookshelf out the way the sea what's up and then 1652 01:25:43,120 --> 01:25:46,600 Speaker 8: they'll find that little trap door thing. I'm guessing, But 1653 01:25:47,040 --> 01:25:50,000 Speaker 8: that's me and my editorial fiells and it's too much 1654 01:25:50,080 --> 01:25:53,439 Speaker 8: like right anyway, before I get cut off again, I 1655 01:25:53,520 --> 01:25:56,599 Speaker 8: just wanted to say, have a great day everybody, and 1656 01:25:56,960 --> 01:25:58,799 Speaker 8: peace Kim Doc later. 1657 01:25:58,800 --> 01:26:01,800 Speaker 1: Thanks Jim Doc. Yeah, it's interesting too because I don't 1658 01:26:01,840 --> 01:26:04,519 Speaker 1: think did you watch Parasite? It just it was just 1659 01:26:04,560 --> 01:26:07,880 Speaker 1: me you okay, Yeah, it's so weird because like it 1660 01:26:07,960 --> 01:26:11,640 Speaker 1: didn't quite like neatly wrap up as a metaphor. It 1661 01:26:11,680 --> 01:26:14,280 Speaker 1: was almost like a like a like a like how 1662 01:26:14,320 --> 01:26:18,000 Speaker 1: a dream doesn't make sense one hundred percent, Like you 1663 01:26:18,040 --> 01:26:20,599 Speaker 1: have a dream, you wake up and you be like, Okay, 1664 01:26:20,600 --> 01:26:22,479 Speaker 1: they didn't make one hundred percent sense. It gave me 1665 01:26:22,520 --> 01:26:25,719 Speaker 1: a feeling, but the feeling makes sense. That's how Parasite 1666 01:26:25,720 --> 01:26:28,160 Speaker 1: feels for me. Because people try to like turn the 1667 01:26:28,200 --> 01:26:30,280 Speaker 1: whole allegory into like, this is what it means. It's 1668 01:26:30,280 --> 01:26:34,280 Speaker 1: about capitalism or about scarcier resources and this, and and 1669 01:26:34,320 --> 01:26:36,479 Speaker 1: I'm like kind of a kind of g nine. It's 1670 01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:40,360 Speaker 1: about vilifying people that you think are doing better than 1671 01:26:40,400 --> 01:26:44,479 Speaker 1: you and then becoming the kind of person that you 1672 01:26:44,560 --> 01:26:47,880 Speaker 1: claim a rich person is. Like, it was just a 1673 01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:51,880 Speaker 1: very interesting thing. And I think because of the time 1674 01:26:51,880 --> 01:26:53,960 Speaker 1: we're in, there's a lot of people like kill the rich, 1675 01:26:54,040 --> 01:26:56,120 Speaker 1: eat the rich, and shit, so they act like that's 1676 01:26:56,120 --> 01:26:57,720 Speaker 1: what the movie is about. But I didn't think the 1677 01:26:57,760 --> 01:27:01,160 Speaker 1: movie was really about that as far as the conversation 1678 01:27:01,240 --> 01:27:04,320 Speaker 1: around it. It felt more like what the pursuit of that 1679 01:27:04,400 --> 01:27:08,360 Speaker 1: ship does to people. And anyway, I love the I 1680 01:27:08,400 --> 01:27:11,280 Speaker 1: love the movie though it was. It was just an 1681 01:27:11,320 --> 01:27:14,840 Speaker 1: amazing movie. All right, let's go to the next voicemail. 1682 01:27:16,240 --> 01:27:23,040 Speaker 1: All right, next voicemail. Let's give it a second. There 1683 01:27:23,040 --> 01:27:27,720 Speaker 1: we go.

Pandemic has killed my reading, like 1722 01:30:04,240 --> 01:30:07,040 Speaker 1: vibe man, Like I would, I would read and then 1723 01:30:07,080 --> 01:30:10,840 Speaker 1: I would go out to like a restaurant. A lot 1724 01:30:10,840 --> 01:30:14,280 Speaker 1: of times I'd go by myself and just sit eat 1725 01:30:14,320 --> 01:30:16,640 Speaker 1: a sandwich or something and just read, sip on some 1726 01:30:16,640 --> 01:30:19,840 Speaker 1: coffee or something. And I'm just not doing that ship 1727 01:30:19,880 --> 01:30:23,599 Speaker 1: at all. It's just not the same at the crib man. So, 1728 01:30:24,320 --> 01:30:26,280 Speaker 1: but I need to get back. I've been reading The 1729 01:30:26,320 --> 01:30:30,640 Speaker 1: Wedding Party for fucking ever. I just feel like I 1730 01:30:31,360 --> 01:30:33,240 Speaker 1: read like a page and then I'll be like, see 1731 01:30:33,240 --> 01:30:33,880 Speaker 1: you next week. 1732 01:30:34,000 --> 01:30:35,320 Speaker 3: But I gotta get on it. 1733 01:30:36,120 --> 01:30:38,519 Speaker 1: And maybe it's just what I'm reading. Maybe I need 1734 01:30:38,520 --> 01:30:41,400 Speaker 1: to get back into some some nonfiction or something. I 1735 01:30:41,400 --> 01:30:44,760 Speaker 1: don't know what it is, but but yeah, I swear 1736 01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:47,200 Speaker 1: about all those books. And conflict is not abuse. It 1737 01:30:47,240 --> 01:30:50,600 Speaker 1: was just a tough, tough read for me, but it 1738 01:30:50,720 --> 01:30:53,240 Speaker 1: was one I really needed to read, like I had 1739 01:30:53,280 --> 01:31:00,040 Speaker 1: to to learn some things that like things that I 1740 01:31:00,040 --> 01:31:04,240 Speaker 1: feel like the internet circles I traffick in rely so 1741 01:31:04,560 --> 01:31:13,360 Speaker 1: heavily on the abuse terminology, victimization and stuff that there. 1742 01:31:13,400 --> 01:31:16,120 Speaker 1: And there's some merit to it, obviously, you know, because 1743 01:31:16,120 --> 01:31:19,080 Speaker 1: when you're talking about people who've never been heard before, 1744 01:31:19,439 --> 01:31:22,759 Speaker 1: who've never been acknowledged in the traumas that they've gone through. 1745 01:31:23,479 --> 01:31:26,200 Speaker 1: Clearly there is some merit to the fact that there 1746 01:31:26,240 --> 01:31:29,000 Speaker 1: now have a platform to talk about these things. But 1747 01:31:30,160 --> 01:31:33,519 Speaker 1: there's a level of manipulation that can happen. There's a 1748 01:31:33,840 --> 01:31:38,840 Speaker 1: un level, there's a level of unhealthy UH denial that happens, 1749 01:31:38,960 --> 01:31:42,440 Speaker 1: a lack of compromise. 1750 01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:43,680 Speaker 3: A lack of. 1751 01:31:45,320 --> 01:31:49,479 Speaker 1: UH coordination. And then also I don't think people have 1752 01:31:49,640 --> 01:31:56,000 Speaker 1: really really understand what it means to lead from a 1753 01:31:56,040 --> 01:31:59,240 Speaker 1: place of trauma and why that's a bad thing. You know. 1754 01:32:00,000 --> 01:32:04,280 Speaker 1: Imagine that there was a professor and they had to 1755 01:32:04,320 --> 01:32:11,000 Speaker 1: teach a course about racism, right, but this professor would 1756 01:32:11,240 --> 01:32:13,479 Speaker 1: anytime they started getting up in front of the class 1757 01:32:13,520 --> 01:32:17,599 Speaker 1: to talk about racism, they started crying and they started 1758 01:32:17,600 --> 01:32:20,639 Speaker 1: being like, let me tell you, in my past, people 1759 01:32:20,640 --> 01:32:23,639 Speaker 1: have been racist to me, and I you know, it's 1760 01:32:23,760 --> 01:32:27,520 Speaker 1: terrible and white people are horrible and blah blah blah. 1761 01:32:27,640 --> 01:32:29,920 Speaker 3: At some point the university would be like, I. 1762 01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:34,280 Speaker 1: Can't let you teach this class because you're not capable 1763 01:32:34,360 --> 01:32:37,200 Speaker 1: of coming in and doing the job of teaching this class, 1764 01:32:37,280 --> 01:32:39,880 Speaker 1: right because you're not you have not dealt with the 1765 01:32:39,960 --> 01:32:43,840 Speaker 1: trauma of what has happened to you, and therefore you're leading. 1766 01:32:43,560 --> 01:32:45,639 Speaker 3: This classroom from your trauma. 1767 01:32:45,760 --> 01:32:49,200 Speaker 1: So you're saying, halfway through the class, I feel triggered. 1768 01:32:49,280 --> 01:32:50,680 Speaker 1: I want all the white people to get out of 1769 01:32:50,680 --> 01:32:55,560 Speaker 1: the class. You're saying halfway through the class, no questions. 1770 01:32:56,920 --> 01:33:00,679 Speaker 1: You're saying, you know, I didn't feel like doing class today, 1771 01:33:01,000 --> 01:33:05,280 Speaker 1: you know, you know stuff like that, Right, Well, that's 1772 01:33:05,360 --> 01:33:08,120 Speaker 1: kind of that's kind of different. The way that we 1773 01:33:08,240 --> 01:33:11,800 Speaker 1: navigate the internet is like that. How many spaces are 1774 01:33:11,840 --> 01:33:14,240 Speaker 1: started by people who really haven't dealt with the trauma 1775 01:33:14,240 --> 01:33:17,240 Speaker 1: they've gone through and they want to have this like 1776 01:33:17,400 --> 01:33:20,479 Speaker 1: public reckoning of their trauma that they're not even done with. 1777 01:33:21,160 --> 01:33:23,479 Speaker 1: So they don't have they're not in you know, they 1778 01:33:23,479 --> 01:33:25,519 Speaker 1: haven't dealt with it through therapy, they haven't dealt with 1779 01:33:25,560 --> 01:33:30,519 Speaker 1: it through whether it's medication, whether it's conflict resolution skills. 1780 01:33:30,880 --> 01:33:33,760 Speaker 1: And yet how many of these people are on pedestals. 1781 01:33:34,479 --> 01:33:37,960 Speaker 1: How many these people can just self appoint themselves as 1782 01:33:38,040 --> 01:33:41,799 Speaker 1: I'm an activist as I'm the leader of this group. 1783 01:33:41,960 --> 01:33:44,680 Speaker 1: I started this Facebook page. Y'all don't like what I say, 1784 01:33:44,720 --> 01:33:47,559 Speaker 1: Get the fuck off. You know how many people are 1785 01:33:47,760 --> 01:33:52,120 Speaker 1: like that? And in addition to that not being healthy 1786 01:33:52,120 --> 01:33:55,240 Speaker 1: for them, because they're gonna consistently be triggered and all 1787 01:33:55,280 --> 01:33:58,080 Speaker 1: this stuff, we still we feed into it. We give 1788 01:33:58,120 --> 01:34:01,599 Speaker 1: them power, We empower them fact that they can't resolve things. 1789 01:34:01,840 --> 01:34:06,000 Speaker 1: We empower the fact that they use abuse language rather 1790 01:34:06,080 --> 01:34:10,160 Speaker 1: than you know, this neutral type of language. Right, We 1791 01:34:10,240 --> 01:34:13,280 Speaker 1: empower that because we think that that is, we think 1792 01:34:13,320 --> 01:34:18,880 Speaker 1: our pity and our empathy is empowering them. But in 1793 01:34:18,920 --> 01:34:21,360 Speaker 1: a lot of cases, we're infantilizing them and dooming them 1794 01:34:21,400 --> 01:34:25,519 Speaker 1: to repeat the same patterns over and over, and especially 1795 01:34:25,560 --> 01:34:28,320 Speaker 1: when we know now the predictability of it. All Right, 1796 01:34:28,720 --> 01:34:32,120 Speaker 1: So for example, if I know I'm a sexual assault 1797 01:34:32,160 --> 01:34:35,000 Speaker 1: survivor and I start a hashtag on Twitter for people 1798 01:34:35,040 --> 01:34:37,960 Speaker 1: to talk about sexual assault, well they're gonna be people 1799 01:34:38,040 --> 01:34:39,840 Speaker 1: on Twitter who are gonna say some fucked up shit, 1800 01:34:41,360 --> 01:34:44,680 Speaker 1: Like I can tell you that right now, certain with 1801 01:34:44,800 --> 01:34:49,679 Speaker 1: one thousand percent certainty. Well, in my once we get there, 1802 01:34:50,000 --> 01:34:51,800 Speaker 1: if I'm the leader of this thing, I haven't dealt 1803 01:34:51,840 --> 01:34:54,000 Speaker 1: with my trauma. What do I start doing demanding that 1804 01:34:54,040 --> 01:34:56,040 Speaker 1: all of you address my trauma? 1805 01:34:56,200 --> 01:34:59,160 Speaker 3: Hey, go get this person, go, get go, do this. 1806 01:34:59,439 --> 01:35:01,960 Speaker 1: Don't put me in this tweet, don't retweet that, don't 1807 01:35:02,000 --> 01:35:05,719 Speaker 1: post this, don't as opposed to what I can control, 1808 01:35:06,080 --> 01:35:10,599 Speaker 1: logging off what I can control making my account private, 1809 01:35:11,120 --> 01:35:14,960 Speaker 1: you know, now, I make you responsible for me, you know. 1810 01:35:15,160 --> 01:35:18,360 Speaker 1: It's it's it's like when people call our Facebook group 1811 01:35:18,400 --> 01:35:19,720 Speaker 1: or something, they be like, it's a safe space. I'd 1812 01:35:19,720 --> 01:35:22,840 Speaker 1: be like, it's not, because I can never be responsible 1813 01:35:23,080 --> 01:35:25,560 Speaker 1: for you, and you can never really truly be responsible 1814 01:35:25,560 --> 01:35:28,240 Speaker 1: for me, you know. And that's that, And we need 1815 01:35:28,280 --> 01:35:30,400 Speaker 1: to get rid of that illusion because the truth is 1816 01:35:30,439 --> 01:35:35,559 Speaker 1: more sobering than the lie of me putting myself on 1817 01:35:35,600 --> 01:35:38,120 Speaker 1: a pedestal like I can protect you from the internet. 1818 01:35:38,160 --> 01:35:41,040 Speaker 1: I can't, you know. And I think these are the 1819 01:35:41,040 --> 01:35:44,040 Speaker 1: tougher discussions. And conflict does not abuse gave me the 1820 01:35:44,640 --> 01:35:47,880 Speaker 1: language around it because it was so different from everything 1821 01:35:47,880 --> 01:35:49,280 Speaker 1: I was reading at the time, and I was like, 1822 01:35:50,080 --> 01:35:55,920 Speaker 1: but this is true. You know, people that refuse to 1823 01:35:58,080 --> 01:36:01,320 Speaker 1: discuss shit with people that they call friends but disagree with, 1824 01:36:01,960 --> 01:36:04,400 Speaker 1: and they kind of turned it into a bullying leverage 1825 01:36:04,400 --> 01:36:06,240 Speaker 1: of you're gonna do what I tell you to do 1826 01:36:06,280 --> 01:36:08,880 Speaker 1: and shut the fuck up, you know what I'm saying, Like, 1827 01:36:08,960 --> 01:36:11,320 Speaker 1: that type of thing never felt good to me, and 1828 01:36:11,360 --> 01:36:14,400 Speaker 1: it didn't feel empowering and it didn't feel right. And 1829 01:36:14,960 --> 01:36:16,840 Speaker 1: but that was a very common thing that I was 1830 01:36:16,840 --> 01:36:19,760 Speaker 1: seeing on the internet all the time. So it has 1831 01:36:19,800 --> 01:36:22,160 Speaker 1: a conflict with somebody, they stopped talking to them, they 1832 01:36:22,200 --> 01:36:24,400 Speaker 1: start telling everybody else about it, and then they tell 1833 01:36:24,439 --> 01:36:27,120 Speaker 1: them the fucking like they better they better come to 1834 01:36:27,160 --> 01:36:29,120 Speaker 1: me and say this, that and the other don't say 1835 01:36:29,160 --> 01:36:32,080 Speaker 1: shit like and eventually you end up in this situation 1836 01:36:32,120 --> 01:36:36,000 Speaker 1: where it's like, was that healthy for anyone involved? You know, 1837 01:36:36,240 --> 01:36:38,439 Speaker 1: I could see if y'all weren't really really friends then, 1838 01:36:38,880 --> 01:36:40,880 Speaker 1: but you know, people call this shit friendship and they 1839 01:36:40,880 --> 01:36:43,960 Speaker 1: do this to people. So anyway, I'm glad you're reading 1840 01:36:44,000 --> 01:36:47,360 Speaker 1: all those books. Man, those are some dope books. All right, 1841 01:36:47,479 --> 01:36:54,040 Speaker 1: We got email, Sean, says Rod and Karen. I wrote 1842 01:36:54,040 --> 01:36:57,639 Speaker 1: before about getting infected a second time to clarify the reason, 1843 01:36:57,800 --> 01:37:00,400 Speaker 1: oh comments about immunity. To clarify the The reason I 1844 01:37:00,400 --> 01:37:02,439 Speaker 1: wrote was because you tend to be better at providing news. 1845 01:37:02,520 --> 01:37:04,920 Speaker 1: Relate to COVID nineteen to many news networks in the US, 1846 01:37:05,120 --> 01:37:07,160 Speaker 1: and I wanted to clarify about an article you reported 1847 01:37:07,240 --> 01:37:09,599 Speaker 1: on and that article on some other similar articles. They're 1848 01:37:09,640 --> 01:37:13,479 Speaker 1: referring to cases of relapse in a manner that imply reinfection. However, 1849 01:37:13,800 --> 01:37:17,040 Speaker 1: we are now entering a period where that will where 1850 01:37:17,320 --> 01:37:20,200 Speaker 1: that will be more likely for people who got infected early. 1851 01:37:20,720 --> 01:37:23,599 Speaker 1: Natural immunity lasts about six months. That means that people 1852 01:37:23,640 --> 01:37:27,040 Speaker 1: infected in November January likely no longer have immunity. In 1853 01:37:27,120 --> 01:37:30,559 Speaker 1: some cases, immunity will dissipay faster, So not assuming immunity 1854 01:37:30,680 --> 01:37:33,680 Speaker 1: is a lot safer. Yeah, they just did a study. Well, 1855 01:37:33,680 --> 01:37:35,479 Speaker 1: I will read it on the next one of these things. 1856 01:37:35,560 --> 01:37:38,200 Speaker 1: I just read to study what they were saying. Some 1857 01:37:38,280 --> 01:37:43,000 Speaker 1: of these antibodies are gone before three months. And with 1858 01:37:43,120 --> 01:37:45,840 Speaker 1: that being the case, you know, one, it kind of 1859 01:37:46,040 --> 01:37:49,240 Speaker 1: lowers hope for a vaccine. Two, it kind of makes 1860 01:37:49,280 --> 01:37:51,800 Speaker 1: them be like, we should be concentrating on treatment, like 1861 01:37:51,880 --> 01:37:55,599 Speaker 1: how do we get people treated and medicated and out 1862 01:37:55,600 --> 01:37:59,040 Speaker 1: of the hospital faster and cured of this thing, rather 1863 01:37:59,120 --> 01:38:03,000 Speaker 1: than a vaccine that may not be viable if it's 1864 01:38:03,000 --> 01:38:06,719 Speaker 1: only going to last a few months. Furthermore, the Oxford 1865 01:38:06,800 --> 01:38:09,680 Speaker 1: vaccine is now in phase three wide scale trials in 1866 01:38:09,720 --> 01:38:12,960 Speaker 1: South Africa and Brazil, and Indian company is already producing it, 1867 01:38:13,000 --> 01:38:15,360 Speaker 1: and the US has already pre ordered three hundred million doses. 1868 01:38:15,360 --> 01:38:18,439 Speaker 1: If successful, distribution could begin as early as September. However, 1869 01:38:18,439 --> 01:38:21,080 Speaker 1: immunity from this vaccine only last about a year. That 1870 01:38:21,200 --> 01:38:24,639 Speaker 1: means that annual boosters will be needed. Also, as Faucci 1871 01:38:24,720 --> 01:38:27,479 Speaker 1: reported pointed out, if there is less than sixty nine 1872 01:38:27,439 --> 01:38:30,919 Speaker 1: percent coverage, you will still see COVID nineteen spread. Osaka 1873 01:38:31,040 --> 01:38:33,920 Speaker 1: University is working on a DNA vaccine that could be 1874 01:38:33,960 --> 01:38:37,360 Speaker 1: available as early as December. This means, rather than injecting 1875 01:38:37,360 --> 01:38:39,719 Speaker 1: a weak form of the virus to a listening immune response, 1876 01:38:39,960 --> 01:38:42,840 Speaker 1: they inject the DNA for the antigens directly into sales. 1877 01:38:42,920 --> 01:38:46,559 Speaker 1: DNA vaccines have fewer side effects and produce longer immunity, 1878 01:38:46,560 --> 01:38:49,720 Speaker 1: but they are only currently used in veterinary vaccines. The 1879 01:38:49,760 --> 01:38:53,200 Speaker 1: Osaka University star as COBE two vaccine would be in 1880 01:38:53,240 --> 01:38:57,000 Speaker 1: the first in the first human DNA vaccine. Damn. I 1881 01:38:57,000 --> 01:38:59,760 Speaker 1: hope this information is useful as a complex confusing time 1882 01:38:59,800 --> 01:39:01,519 Speaker 1: and you are doing such a great job keeping your 1883 01:39:01,560 --> 01:39:04,000 Speaker 1: audience informed that I would like to thank you living 1884 01:39:04,080 --> 01:39:08,240 Speaker 1: in Schrodinger's virus countries, y'all in the US, myself in Japan, 1885 01:39:08,680 --> 01:39:12,040 Speaker 1: where there's insufficient testing, so everyone that's simultaneously infected and 1886 01:39:12,120 --> 01:39:14,880 Speaker 1: not infected. It's quite stressful. Stay safe and keep up 1887 01:39:14,880 --> 01:39:15,360 Speaker 1: to go work. 1888 01:39:15,720 --> 01:39:18,920 Speaker 4: Thanks Sean, Thank you, baby, you'd be safe there. 1889 01:39:19,120 --> 01:39:22,280 Speaker 1: John Wright saying, good morning Karen and Rod. Last week 1890 01:39:22,360 --> 01:39:25,519 Speaker 1: you mentioned scenarios where someone would confess to something they 1891 01:39:25,520 --> 01:39:27,719 Speaker 1: actually didn't do when all the pressure of the police 1892 01:39:27,760 --> 01:39:29,840 Speaker 1: and criminal justice system is on top of them. I 1893 01:39:29,880 --> 01:39:32,080 Speaker 1: think it was on the pregame show discussion about Amanda 1894 01:39:32,160 --> 01:39:35,920 Speaker 1: Knox documentary, and maybe on the Jail COVID episode too. Yeah, 1895 01:39:35,960 --> 01:39:38,200 Speaker 1: it was definitely on the pregame. I remember talking about 1896 01:39:38,200 --> 01:39:42,160 Speaker 1: this because I watched the Amanda Knox documentary on Netflix, 1897 01:39:42,320 --> 01:39:46,240 Speaker 1: and the biggest thing that I didn't know was that 1898 01:39:46,479 --> 01:39:50,680 Speaker 1: her and that dude confessed. I didn't know that. I 1899 01:39:50,880 --> 01:39:54,240 Speaker 1: just always thought they had framed them. Motherfucker's first well, 1900 01:39:54,280 --> 01:39:55,920 Speaker 1: to be honest, when I wasn't paying attention, I just 1901 01:39:55,960 --> 01:39:58,760 Speaker 1: thought they did it because I mean, who the fuck 1902 01:39:58,800 --> 01:40:03,160 Speaker 1: frames white America, a white American woman overseas right for 1903 01:40:03,280 --> 01:40:05,320 Speaker 1: some sex crime shit. I was like, oh, yeah, she 1904 01:40:05,400 --> 01:40:07,800 Speaker 1: must've did that. So then when I looked into it 1905 01:40:07,840 --> 01:40:11,519 Speaker 1: a little bit, I was like, well, maybe she didn't 1906 01:40:11,520 --> 01:40:13,160 Speaker 1: do it. I don't know.

Holy shit. 1908 01:40:19,080 --> 01:40:21,360 Speaker 1: Now we know that you can call it a confession 1909 01:40:21,400 --> 01:40:25,040 Speaker 1: out of people. She's in a foreign country, YadA, YadA, YadA. 1910 01:40:25,080 --> 01:40:25,680 Speaker 2: I'm not different though. 1911 01:40:25,760 --> 01:40:27,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not saying this impossible. 1912 01:40:27,200 --> 01:40:30,040 Speaker 1: And then certain people's mentality do not make them good 1913 01:40:30,080 --> 01:40:34,120 Speaker 1: with interrogation and being questioned, and they get nervous and 1914 01:40:34,160 --> 01:40:36,479 Speaker 1: they fuck up and they say something and that's not 1915 01:40:36,560 --> 01:40:38,680 Speaker 1: what you want to do in police custody, man, But 1916 01:40:38,800 --> 01:40:40,360 Speaker 1: a lot of people do it. They don't have the 1917 01:40:40,439 --> 01:40:43,639 Speaker 1: mentality to be like because the smart thing is shut 1918 01:40:43,680 --> 01:40:45,400 Speaker 1: the fuck up. You can't talk your way out of this, 1919 01:40:45,439 --> 01:40:47,320 Speaker 1: wait till you get a lawyer. Let they let them 1920 01:40:47,360 --> 01:40:50,719 Speaker 1: do the talking. But we've all seen the first forty 1921 01:40:50,760 --> 01:40:53,519 Speaker 1: eight We all know people they say shit to you 1922 01:40:53,560 --> 01:40:55,320 Speaker 1: before you're in custy. They got tricks, they can lie 1923 01:40:55,360 --> 01:40:57,839 Speaker 1: to you about certain things, and people end up boom, 1924 01:40:57,920 --> 01:41:00,840 Speaker 1: I'm confessing to something, thinking that they com fromising or 1925 01:41:01,280 --> 01:41:03,280 Speaker 1: helping get out of trouble. And now You're going to 1926 01:41:03,280 --> 01:41:05,439 Speaker 1: prison forever because you said some shit and it's admissible 1927 01:41:05,520 --> 01:41:08,000 Speaker 1: in the court of log right, So that's a big 1928 01:41:08,040 --> 01:41:10,960 Speaker 1: part of it. Anyways, I just wanted to add in that. 1929 01:41:11,600 --> 01:41:13,479 Speaker 1: In addition to When they see Us. There's also a 1930 01:41:13,520 --> 01:41:18,000 Speaker 1: really amazing Netflix docu drama series called Unbelievable that you 1931 01:41:18,040 --> 01:41:20,800 Speaker 1: should check out. Oh yeah about the girl guy? Yeah, yeah, 1932 01:41:20,840 --> 01:41:22,680 Speaker 1: I know this one. It tells the story of a 1933 01:41:22,680 --> 01:41:25,679 Speaker 1: serial rapist in Pacific Northwest who evaded capture for years, 1934 01:41:25,840 --> 01:41:27,840 Speaker 1: but the real focus is on how horribly are system 1935 01:41:27,880 --> 01:41:30,800 Speaker 1: treats victims of sexual assault. It's a really great series 1936 01:41:30,840 --> 01:41:33,280 Speaker 1: that's probably the best commentary and illustration of rape culture 1937 01:41:33,280 --> 01:41:36,719 Speaker 1: that I've ever seen, and its rightfully centers the victims 1938 01:41:36,800 --> 01:41:40,519 Speaker 1: perspective throughout the feature as features some amazing performances by 1939 01:41:40,560 --> 01:41:43,280 Speaker 1: all the women in the cast. So wait is it? 1940 01:41:43,320 --> 01:41:46,559 Speaker 1: I thought Unbelievable was a Okay, you said docu drama, 1941 01:41:47,400 --> 01:41:50,120 Speaker 1: so we say performances? Do they have act acting in 1942 01:41:50,160 --> 01:41:52,000 Speaker 1: it too? Are they like acting out the parts? 1943 01:41:53,680 --> 01:41:53,800 Speaker 4: All? 1944 01:41:53,880 --> 01:41:57,920 Speaker 1: Right? Obviously serious trigger warners for sexual violence, misogyny, et cetera. 1945 01:41:58,400 --> 01:42:00,599 Speaker 1: Though the show does do a fait really good job 1946 01:42:00,640 --> 01:42:03,760 Speaker 1: of making the assaults terrifying without being overly graphic. Oh 1947 01:42:03,800 --> 01:42:06,120 Speaker 1: so they are acting re enacting it. Oh that is 1948 01:42:06,360 --> 01:42:09,800 Speaker 1: that is a choice? That isn't that is a choice. Yeah. 1949 01:42:09,920 --> 01:42:13,639 Speaker 1: I watched athlete a if you want to watch another series, 1950 01:42:13,680 --> 01:42:15,799 Speaker 1: and I thought it was a lot less like triggering. 1951 01:42:15,880 --> 01:42:20,439 Speaker 1: It wasn't like trying to get into the graphic sexual 1952 01:42:20,520 --> 01:42:23,679 Speaker 1: nature of the stuff. I also heard. I also heard 1953 01:42:23,680 --> 01:42:27,080 Speaker 1: the they did that with the I'll be there in 1954 01:42:27,080 --> 01:42:29,080 Speaker 1: the dark or whatever, I'll be gone in the dark, 1955 01:42:29,320 --> 01:42:33,400 Speaker 1: the thing about the Golden about the the serial killer, 1956 01:42:33,439 --> 01:42:37,719 Speaker 1: that that they caught using DNA test and shit, and 1957 01:42:37,720 --> 01:42:40,080 Speaker 1: and now I heard they do dramatization of the crowns too. 1958 01:42:40,080 --> 01:42:43,439 Speaker 1: I wonder why they do that. You know, like someone 1959 01:42:43,520 --> 01:42:45,800 Speaker 1: was sexual assault, you think they wouldn't want to do that, but. 1960 01:42:46,000 --> 01:42:48,040 Speaker 4: They wouldn't want to touch that, right, Just let somebody 1961 01:42:48,080 --> 01:42:49,840 Speaker 4: just tell it. Telling them to this traumatizing. 1962 01:42:49,960 --> 01:42:50,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's traumatizing. 1963 01:42:51,080 --> 01:42:51,120 Speaker 4: Know. 1964 01:42:51,280 --> 01:42:53,920 Speaker 1: Anyway, As a bonus, most of the scenes of the 1965 01:42:53,920 --> 01:42:56,560 Speaker 1: main character biking around Washington were actually filling on the 1966 01:42:56,600 --> 01:42:59,360 Speaker 1: streets of so Caw. Anyways, just thought you might want 1967 01:42:59,400 --> 01:43:01,719 Speaker 1: to add it to your coronavirus binge watching lists because 1968 01:43:01,720 --> 01:43:03,360 Speaker 1: along with when they see us. This is probably the 1969 01:43:03,439 --> 01:43:06,559 Speaker 1: most powerful series I saw in twenty nineteen. It's something 1970 01:43:06,600 --> 01:43:10,080 Speaker 1: that especially men should watch to help wrap our heads 1971 01:43:10,080 --> 01:43:13,479 Speaker 1: around the world that women have to navigate. Ps. I 1972 01:43:13,479 --> 01:43:15,760 Speaker 1: don't even play video games, but I would gladly buy 1973 01:43:15,760 --> 01:43:18,200 Speaker 1: a gaming system just to play Mortal Karen.

Yeah, yeah, it's insane. I've been 2030 01:46:06,640 --> 01:46:08,639 Speaker 1: reading a ton lately and I stumbled onto an essay 2031 01:46:08,640 --> 01:46:11,439 Speaker 1: by James Barwin called Negroes are anti Semitic because they 2032 01:46:11,439 --> 01:46:14,160 Speaker 1: are anti white. Yeah, Randolf was quoting that the Last 2033 01:46:14,160 --> 01:46:18,840 Speaker 1: Songs on Three Guys on in the American concept the context. 2034 01:46:18,960 --> 01:46:22,400 Speaker 1: In the American context, the most ironical thing about Negro 2035 01:46:22,520 --> 01:46:25,240 Speaker 1: anti Semitism is that the Negroes really condemning the Jew 2036 01:46:25,280 --> 01:46:28,160 Speaker 1: for having become an American white man, for having become, 2037 01:46:28,200 --> 01:46:31,320 Speaker 1: in effect a Christian. The Jew profits from his status 2038 01:46:31,320 --> 01:46:34,320 Speaker 1: in America, and he must expect Negroes to distrust him 2039 01:46:34,360 --> 01:46:37,240 Speaker 1: for it. The Jew does not realize that the credential 2040 01:46:37,320 --> 01:46:40,160 Speaker 1: he offers, the fact that he has been despised and slaughtered, 2041 01:46:40,400 --> 01:46:44,560 Speaker 1: does not increase the Negro's understanding and increases the negroes rage. 2042 01:46:44,680 --> 01:46:47,439 Speaker 1: I'm noticing that a lot of people don't want black liberation. 2043 01:46:47,520 --> 01:46:49,759 Speaker 1: They just want to take the place of the white man. Yep. 2044 01:46:50,040 --> 01:46:52,760 Speaker 1: They want whatever power they believe white man to have. 2045 01:46:52,920 --> 01:46:54,639 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe I'm wrong, and I'm sure you'll 2046 01:46:54,640 --> 01:46:58,719 Speaker 1: tell me.
