First of all, what's the HBC school HBCU? 18 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: You mean, bro? I know what you meant, see Hugh Charlemagne, 19 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: the gods smartest you forgot to you. I didn't know 20 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: what you talking about whatever, But like, look, you don't 21 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: see some colord of state on they don't get games. 22 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:15,400 Speaker 1: Espnuld play game. I agree, I agree with you, I 23 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: definitely agree. Agree. It's up to you know what, though, 24 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: it's up to those those those superstar athletes from those states. 25 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: Somebody's gonna have to make the sacrifice to say, you 26 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: know what, White Ice is not colder, and I'm gonna 27 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: go to an HBCU. I'm gonna take my talents to 28 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 1: an HBCU. That's the only way they're gonna start getting 29 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 1: A couple of them are doing. The young lady that 30 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: went to baseball and another brother went to Howard he 31 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,960 Speaker 1: plays basketball. So there's a couple of them doing it though. Yeah, 32 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: but still put the most kids want to shine. They 33 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: want to they want school so they can get the 34 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: complicity to see a household thing. But they don't get that. 35 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: So I feel like ESPN should take the additiative to 36 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: have a game. They just ad TUUM schools so they 37 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: could get some kind of shot, because it's not that's 38 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: the reason one of them want to go.

Wait, 181 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 1: what does that mean? This is the first time. It's 182 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: not a free position on the Biden campaign. I can 183 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: tell you that. Let me just it will be Director 184 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: of Public Engagement, which means I'll engage in interact with 185 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 1: everybody from the civil rights community, to the LGBTQ community, 186 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: to Black Lives Matter, to the Latino community. And I'll 187 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 1: be in the White House as a senior advisor to 188 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: the President for him to bounce stuff off, to have 189 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: him put in decisions. And sometimes you know, it's that 190 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 1: question is who's at the table? It's my expectation to 191 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: be at the table. Do you get a chance to 192 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 1: breathe and say, yes, we finally made it, We finally 193 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: did it because it was a long fight, and the 194 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: fight continue for a minute, or do it now you 195 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: look at it and say, Okay, now we got a 196 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,079 Speaker 1: whole lot more to do. Well, we have a lot 197 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: of work to do. This president has left chaos and 198 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: confusion all across the country, especially a raging pandemic. But 199 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 1: we you know, I don't have to tell you all. 200 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: You know, we have a lot of work to do. 201 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: When you start talking about systematic racism, when you start 202 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: talking about addressing poverty, when you start talking about addressing 203 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: climate change, and you start talking about addressing police reform, 204 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: criminal justice reform, all of those things we've talked about. 205 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 1: Now it becomes the time to put up a shut 206 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: up and so we have work to do. And that's 207 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 1: the part that is the awesome task. I saw you 208 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: said that this was the hardest decision you've had to 209 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,679 Speaker 1: make in your life. So what were your reservation? Well, 210 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 1: first of all, I haven't had a boss in twenty 211 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: one years except the people who put me in office. 212 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: And the other part was making sure that you know 213 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: it's meaningful. And Charlomagne, I will tell you that between 214 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 1: you and DL, because both of you all on interviews 215 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 1: asked me the same question at some point, which was 216 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: who do we hold accountable if things go around or 217 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: we don't live up to expectations, And the real question was, well, 218 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: if I don't go in, then I'm cheating people of 219 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,959 Speaker 1: that voice, of all of the people I'm convinced to 220 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: be a part of this movement. And then you know, 221 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: it was just to uproot your family and moved to DC. Look, 222 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: I like DC, but New Orleans is the best city 223 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: in the country, and so all of those factors went in. 224 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, it's something I 225 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: had to do. Was it hard to leave your congressional seat. Absolutely? 226 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, I just got reelected. It's 227 00:11:56,559 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: been six elections going into my eleventh Assistant to the Whip, 228 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: which is a leadership position in the House, and the 229 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: more seniority you get, the more you can help your district. 230 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: But in this broken government that we have now, with 231 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 1: the Senate controlled by Republicans or could be controlled by Republicans, 232 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell's just going to continue to block everything that's 233 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: important us, like the George Floyd Policing Act, which he's blocking, 234 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 1: and are the Voting Rights Extension which he's blocking. So 235 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 1: part of it is, you know, there's more than one 236 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: way to skin a cat, and so if we can't 237 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: get it done legislatively, let's go into executive branch and 238 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: see what we can get done there. Who you think 239 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: should get that seat? Your old seat? Oh, look, there's 240 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: a number of qualified people who are running, and I 241 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: will look at him, I'll talk to each and every 242 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 1: one of them, and I'll probably make a recommendation to 243 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 1: the voters. But it's important to keep someone who will 244 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 1: put the constituents over ambition or anything like that. So 245 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: and look, everybody that's running has a track record, so 246 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: voters will be able to judge them. How are you 247 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 1: navigating through Donald Trump not trying to help with this 248 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 1: transition phase? What are you guys able to do to 249 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: get around that? Well, the good news is Joe Biden 250 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 1: has been in the White House before and so there's 251 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: some institutional knowledge there. But it's a hindrance. And the 252 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 1: sad part about it is it puts Americans at jeopardy. 253 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: So if we're talking about having a cohesive rollout of 254 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 1: the vaccines, if they're ready, it would be nice to 255 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: know where they are, what's their plan, so that we 256 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: could come in or adjust their plan and have our 257 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: own plan ready. But you need to know those type 258 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 1: of things, especially on national defense and security briefings. One 259 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: of the glaring items in the nine to eleven report 260 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,679 Speaker 1: was that because it wasn't a smooth transition, there were 261 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: gaps and the terrorists were able to exploit those gaps. 262 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 1: So those are the things you don't want to happen. 263 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,959 Speaker 1: But there are a number of people who used to 264 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: be in the Trump administration that is volunteering information. And 265 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: so we're doing the best we can with what we got. 266 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: But I don't think that's adequate, and we know it's 267 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,679 Speaker 1: not adequate for the American people. So we just, you know, 268 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: hopefully expect to temper tance from the stop and we 269 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 1: can get to transition and get ready for one of 270 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: peaceful transition, but to a moving presidency coming up. And 271 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 1: I was gonna ask, is there any way to forcefully 272 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 1: do that by law? You know the fact that these 273 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: laws or all these states to come in and say 274 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: you know now that you did leave, that you did lose. 275 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: Is any way to forcefully say no, we need this information. 276 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: You have to or you go to jail. Is that possible? 277 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 1: Or know that doesn't happen like that? But there's some 278 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 1: legal routes you can take. But I'll just tell you 279 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 1: from my time in Congress, when Donald Trump tells its 280 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: cabinet secretaries and not to cooperate with committee investigations, to 281 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: ignore our subpoenas, we hold them in contempt, and then 282 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: nothing still happens. This is a lawless punch that is 283 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: in the White House right now, and you know, without 284 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: Donald Trump freeing them up, I expect them to continue 285 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: to be a problem. However, I do think at some 286 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 1: point Donald Trump is going to realize that it's bigger 287 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 1: than him for the first time. I think he will 288 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 1: understand that this is not all about him, or he'll 289 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: just take his ball and go home and say, you know, 290 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: if y'all want Sleepy Joe, take Sleepy Joe. Y'all all 291 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: want me back in four years. So I'm taking my 292 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: ball and going home. Whatever it looks like, it just 293 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: needs to happen so that we can get on with 294 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: the business of transition and preparing to run the greatest 295 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: country on Earth. We got more with Cedric Richmond. When 296 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good Morning, 297 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Chalomagne, 298 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 1: the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking 299 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 1: it with Cedric Richmond. Charlomagne, Cedric, are you ready for 300 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 1: all the smoke that's gonna come you away? Though? Because 301 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 1: I posted you on my Instagram yesterday a couple of 302 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: days ago, congratulating you, and immediately people started coming with 303 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: all types of you know, rhetoric whose climate advocates and 304 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: leaders who fight against toxicare pollution sin that he's terrible 305 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: for the environment because he got tied to the oil 306 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: and gas industry. But what do you say to that. Look, 307 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 1: I understand their concern. They also have to understand that 308 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: in my congressional district we have hundreds of thousands of 309 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: jobs tied to people showing up working every day anywhere 310 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: from hotels to all in gas to refineries. And that's 311 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: just the district that I represent. But what I would 312 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: just tell them is that they all applaud Don mckeachen 313 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: as being one of the leaders on environmental justice. Well, 314 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 1: when we were deciding to put our climate plan together, 315 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: it was me that called Don mckeachen, who's a difference 316 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: in mine, and said, Hey, we want the best environmental 317 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 1: justice plan that we can find, and we want you 318 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: at the table when I want you involved. So I 319 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: know the damage that's going on out there, and I 320 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: think we have assembled the team to put it together. 321 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: And we had a robust climate change plan. And by 322 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 1: the way, Joe Biden and its climate plan won the presidency. 323 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,400 Speaker 1: Nobody else did. Yeah, but then that's why they were 324 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 1: kind of upset too, because they said that you raked 325 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,919 Speaker 1: in big money from the fossil fuel industry and voted 326 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 1: to help oil and gas companies. Is that true? No, 327 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: that's not true. Now, I did receive contributions from the 328 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: oil and gas company. They're businesses in my district, and 329 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 1: just because you write a check doesn't mean you only 330 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: And at some point the activists are gonna have to 331 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: understand that. Man, you're the third politician I heard say that, 332 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: and it makes perfect sense to me, Like you can, 333 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 1: you know, have somebody donate to your campaign, But as 334 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 1: long as you're still serving the interest of the people 335 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: and not, then what's the problem. Environmentalists have also donated 336 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 1: to my campaign, So look, I just think that it's 337 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 1: it's a distraction. And when you know people are out 338 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: there just trying to get it done, we should come together, 339 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: especially when you win an election, and the fact that 340 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: Democrats are fighting after we win makes absolutely no sense. 341 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 1: We should be at the table figuring out where we 342 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 1: go from here. And I think that's what Joe Biden 343 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,919 Speaker 1: wants to do. So look, Sunrise and all the environmental groups. 344 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,880 Speaker 1: I'm going to reach out to them and make sure 345 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 1: that they understand that this is the Biden Climate plan, 346 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: this is the agenda we're going to embark on them. 347 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 1: So let's take people out of it, focus on the plan. 348 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: And so I forgot who said it. It It might have 349 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 1: been King, but I heard Obama repeated before it's not 350 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,160 Speaker 1: about the man, it's about the plan. And I believe 351 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:34,120 Speaker 1: in Joe Biden's climate plan and his environmental justice plan. 352 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 1: I was going to ask, how do you undo the 353 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 1: damage done by the president now and his constituents who 354 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: are saying that there's voter fraud and this whole election 355 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:45,880 Speaker 1: was rigged, and there's a lot of people who don't 356 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 1: believe in the system. So how do you undo that damage? Well? 357 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,120 Speaker 1: One first five, making sure we get to January twentieth 358 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 1: and watch him leave the White House and watch Joe 359 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 1: Biden go into the White House, because I think what 360 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 1: we've seen over the campaign is that Joe Biden people 361 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: believe him, and he can restore trust in government, the 362 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: election system. The Trumpsters out there that believe that somebody 363 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 1: stole the election, they're going to believe that no matter 364 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: what I mean. They created the term alternative facts, and 365 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 1: people believe it. Unfortunately, he has a percentage of the 366 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 1: population that will believe whatever he says. He says the 367 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: news media's line, and they believe it. So it's upon 368 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: us once we take office, to make sure we restore 369 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,199 Speaker 1: people's faith in governments, restore the faith in the election system. 370 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:34,439 Speaker 1: You have republican governor's, Republican Secretary of States like in 371 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:38,679 Speaker 1: Georgia saying we had a recount, Joe Biden's the winner. 372 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 1: The election was fair, there was no fraud, and those 373 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: people who are going to choose to believe the alternative 374 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 1: facts are just going to believe that. Now, how can 375 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 1: we help you and Senator Harris and everybody in the 376 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 1: White House keep those promises for black people? How can 377 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: we help on the ground. Well, I think you have 378 00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: to keep raising issues. We don't get a pass because 379 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 1: one and I think that that's important, and I think 380 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 1: I said it on this show before, Charlotte Mane. But 381 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 1: I try to give you the thirty second of it. 382 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:11,159 Speaker 1: When Jesse Jackson, John Lewis and Martin Luther King and 383 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: all those people, not Martin, but when the civil rights 384 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 1: leaders went into visit London, Johnson after the passage of 385 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 1: the Civil Rights Act that told him they needed a 386 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 1: voting Rights Act. He said, I can't do it. They said, no, 387 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: you have to do it. He said, I want to 388 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 1: do it, but I don't have the political capital are 389 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: the will of the people to do it. So help 390 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: me by when you leave this room, make me do it. 391 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,360 Speaker 1: Go create the environment out there, create the demand for 392 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: that change that will help me usher it in. So 393 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 1: to the extent that people are still talking about Black 394 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: Lives Matter movement, whether it helped or hurt, Black Lives 395 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,920 Speaker 1: Matter movement is a partner in the struggle for progress 396 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: in this country, and we recognize that. We applaud them, 397 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 1: and the more that they push, the more that we're 398 00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 1: able to do. And so that's what we need from 399 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: you too. I mean, we have to make sure that 400 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: our people are engaged. And if that means our people 401 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: are engaged enough to the point where they are criticizing 402 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 1: our action or in action, well that's just a consequence 403 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: of it. But it moves the needle forward. So just 404 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: keep doing what you're doing, being an honest voice, plane spoken, 405 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: keeping it real, however, you know, being woke, however we 406 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 1: describe it or have what the young people say it. 407 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: That's what we need from you, and so young people 408 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 1: need the truth and the real truth. And the more 409 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: it incentivises them to be a part of the process, 410 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: I think that is very very important. You know, you know, 411 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: and I know you're part of the administration, But on 412 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 1: a scale of one to let's say, the Civil Rights 413 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,959 Speaker 1: Act of nineteen sixty four, do you have faith in 414 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: the Biden Harris administration to really make transformative change for 415 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 1: the black community. Absolutely, you know. The hindrance is the 416 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: fact that we did not pick up the Senate yet, 417 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 1: and hopefully we can pick up those two seats in Georgia. 418 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: We need the people in order to just really show up. 419 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 1: But the will is there, and you know, my grandmother 420 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: used to say, whether there's the will, there's a way, 421 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: And so I believe that both of them want to 422 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: be very transformative and leave a legacy bigger and better 423 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: than the sixty four Civil Rights Act, sixty five Voting 424 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 1: Rights Act. And part of what we want to do 425 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 1: is to extend that Voting Rights Act, which has lapsed 426 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: since the Supreme Court decision that gutted it. But by 427 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: the way, I just want to also throw in there 428 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: that you know, Vice President Biden did break a barrier 429 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: or and show some courage and the ability to think 430 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: out of the box and take chances by picking not 431 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 1: only the first woman, but the first black woman to 432 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 1: be a vice president candidate on a major ticket. And 433 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:52,640 Speaker 1: by the way, at the end of the day, as 434 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,639 Speaker 1: I look at this, I don't think there's another ticket 435 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 1: that would have beat Donald Trump as close as this 436 00:22:56,800 --> 00:23:00,439 Speaker 1: election was. I think Senator Harris was a part of 437 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: the ticket. And I think Joe's authenticity and people knowing 438 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 1: him is what earned him the title of president elected 439 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: soon to be forty six president of the United States. 440 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: I agree with you. I just you know, I just 441 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: want more than the symbolism at this point. That's all, 442 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Oh look, I agree with you. 443 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,439 Speaker 1: I would just say, if you want to see what 444 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: somebody's going to do in the future, just look at 445 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 1: their past actions. And I think that that should at 446 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 1: least earn, you know, a sense of you know, good will. 447 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: Not saying that that good will should last in perpetuity, 448 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,199 Speaker 1: but I think it's it sets the tone for what 449 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 1: type of administration this wants to be. And I would 450 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: just tell you, as talking to President elect Joe Biden. 451 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:47,199 Speaker 1: It is very clear that he wants to empower and 452 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:51,400 Speaker 1: do more for the African American community and any president 453 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: before him. And you know there are other issues he 454 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,880 Speaker 1: wants to have that legacy on, but he is very 455 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:02,400 Speaker 1: set on making sure that you know, uh lift every 456 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 1: voice agenda, it's actually implemented. Well, we're gonna be on 457 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: his ass, so don't change your number.

I would talk about 470 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: It's not true. I was talking about it on my podcast. 471 00:24:55,880 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 1: Did you.

I'm going to as well. What happened 481 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 1: was I texted, I put it on Instagram a picture 482 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: of my wife, and I said she wasn't laying next 483 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: to me. My wife doesn't have a Twitter, so it 484 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: goes on Twitter automatically, and because she doesn't have a Twitter, 485 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 1: they just put my name at dj envy. That's what 486 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: it is. You can go to Instagram and see the post, 487 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: but anyway, it doesn't automatically. It does well mind when 488 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,120 Speaker 1: I hit Instagram and automatically does Twitter as well. Um, 489 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 1: but like I was saying on my podcast, we were 490 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 1: talking about would you date yourself?

You're tiny, you have a 493 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 1: lot of cute insecurities, different colors on your face. Would 494 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 1: you date yourself? Bro? First of all, I don't talk 495 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 1: about the old version of me, a little messy bottom yourself. Listen, 496 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 1: the old version of me that led with ego. No, 497 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,640 Speaker 1: this version of me that leads with soul. Yes, that's 498 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: because I have done the work on myself, you know, 499 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 1: through therapy and having a Sacred Purpose coach. I practice 500 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,359 Speaker 1: mindfulness in a real way. And the greatest compliment that 501 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 1: I received nowadays is people tell me how much I evolved. 502 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 1: So when I look back at the old me and 503 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 1: listen to things I used to say, things I used 504 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: to do, I didn't love myself. I didn't love myself 505 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 1: like I thought I did. I was a hurt individual 506 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: and hurt people, hurt people, and I led with my 507 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,399 Speaker 1: trauma in a lot of situations. But I went on 508 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 1: a journey of healing and I'm still healing in a 509 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,199 Speaker 1: lot of ways. But I know that I'm connected to 510 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 1: this great universe that God built, and God built me 511 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 1: to be a part of it. So I feel whole. 512 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: So this whole version of me. Yes, I would date 513 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 1: this whole version of me. That's that's I'm not a 514 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 1: broken human with a wounded go anymore. So yes I would. 515 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 1: I would date this version of me. I am a catch. 516 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,639 Speaker 1: All right, you're not a catch. But I said the 517 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 1: same thing. You know, before I had an ego, I 518 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 1: was insecure. No, I wouldn't have dated me, and I 519 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: thank god get stayed with me. Now, yeah, I'm a 520 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: different individual.

All my ex boyfriends love me. I 524 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: don't have any of those issues. I think I've made 525 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 1: poor decisions when it comes to the men that I 526 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 1: did it.

A lot of us in 660 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 1: our community don't feel connected to politics, and you know, 661 00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:00,439 Speaker 1: and me and Tamika being on the forefront the civil 662 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 1: rights and advocacy work that we do, we understand that 663 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:07,320 Speaker 1: disconnect and we feel like we know how to translate 664 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 1: from the streets to the suits, as we say, you know, 665 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 1: So we wanted to create a show, you know, a 666 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,880 Speaker 1: platform where we talked about hip hop culture, when we 667 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: talked about how it integrates and intertwines with politics and 668 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,719 Speaker 1: how everybody definitely has a role and can play a role. 669 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 1: You know. I remember going to a club and DJ 670 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 1: self see me, and then when I started doing advocacy, 671 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 1: were in the strip club and he was like, what 672 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,359 Speaker 1: you're doing here? I say, the same thing you're doing 673 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 1: here watching the strip but he's like, naw, you ain't 674 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 1: supposed to be a here, you know you do. I'm like, nah, 675 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,800 Speaker 1: that's and then that's the disconnect, y'all think, because we 676 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,120 Speaker 1: actually on the front lines and we do work for 677 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 1: civil rights and we fight for the rights of our 678 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 1: people that were not for the culture, and we're not 679 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 1: actually the same people like you. So that makes people 680 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,879 Speaker 1: feel like they don't have an intersection into this work. 681 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 1: So you know, our platform is showing that intersection, showing 682 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: how you can of hip hop culture. You can like 683 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 1: the Strip Club, you can like Cardi B. And you 684 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: can still go and do a meeting with Jesse Jackson's 685 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 1: and sit down, you know what, Revernard shopping and be 686 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,359 Speaker 1: in at the table doing civil rights work. So when 687 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:15,720 Speaker 1: you only interview people on that have your same views, 688 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: or let's say, for the podcast, when you talk with 689 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 1: somebody like a little Wayne or even like a little Pip, 690 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 1: I mean a little Pump or you know, like when 691 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 1: you have conversations with people that don't necessarily a view 692 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: or have the same views as you, I mean I 693 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 1: will to me and we always we agree with each other, 694 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 1: we don't age with each other. So that's that's what 695 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 1: our podcast was pretty much, Beach. We got a lot 696 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 1: of different views. We share the same you know, the 697 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,880 Speaker 1: same passion for the movement, but we definitely have different views. 698 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,800 Speaker 1: And sometimes on the show, you know, we get into debates. 699 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 1: So I definitely want to bring somebody up that has 700 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 1: a different point of view than me and try to 701 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 1: get to understand them. Now you can't I can bring 702 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 1: you up when you have a different point of view, right, 703 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,400 Speaker 1: But I can't morally conflict. I don't even want to 704 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 1: give a platform to somebody that I'm morally conflict and 705 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:10,000 Speaker 1: understand that you getting on my platform is elevating your 706 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 1: voice to a more standard that doesn't coincide with minds. 707 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 1: Now that's something different. So like at Takasi sixty nine, 708 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:18,879 Speaker 1: if we want to talk about this documentary that's out 709 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 1: that's never gonna happen, what about what are your thought 710 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 1: to people that don't necessarily agree with your views? You know? Well, 711 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 1: like I said, Mike Sonna, not have conflict. And you know, 712 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 1: we've been doing street politicians for a while, but now 713 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 1: we have a bigger platform with this podcast. And I 714 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 1: think this election cycle has sort of helped us see 715 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 1: where we align more than we used to think we 716 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 1: did because we used to argue about everything. But as 717 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 1: the election played out and we really got to understand 718 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 1: the trauma of our communities, I think we've begin to 719 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:56,480 Speaker 1: have conversations where we're kind just trying to see out 720 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 1: of eyes. So that's one part of it. I have 721 00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:01,319 Speaker 1: no problem with talking to people that I don't necessarily 722 00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 1: agree with. However, I think my songs sentiments are so 723 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:09,360 Speaker 1: true that I'm not trying to elevate people and provide, 724 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 1: you know, false narratives to our community, because it's just 725 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,319 Speaker 1: too serious right now, Like we just have so much 726 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 1: that's at stake and we cannot be sitting up playing 727 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 1: around or had, you know, joking around with people's lives, 728 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 1: because when young people, particularly hear points of views, sometimes 729 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 1: they can take the wrong things from certain people just 730 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,719 Speaker 1: because of the packaging, and they begin to apply those 731 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 1: things to their real lives. And we can't afford to 732 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,319 Speaker 1: do that at this moment. And I think the other 733 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 1: reason why I wanted it to be called street Politicians 734 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 1: is because people think you're similar to what my song 735 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 1: was saying, that we live in a bubble that we 736 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 1: don't understand, like what's going on in the world. How 737 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 1: do we deal with the relational issues in our community 738 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 1: as well? Because it's politics in a marriage and you know, 739 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,319 Speaker 1: trying to get married, trying to fall in love, it's 740 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,080 Speaker 1: politics and everything that we do in our lives, and 741 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 1: I think we have a way of being able to 742 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: show people the connection. What do you think about people 743 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: having views like supporting or Donald Trump, right, and We 744 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:13,239 Speaker 1: saw some hip hop artists come forward and show their 745 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,879 Speaker 1: support for him, but other people will say, okay, well, 746 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:19,760 Speaker 1: everybody's allowed to have a different opinion. We shouldn't discredit 747 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: people just because of who they're voting for. What are 748 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:27,319 Speaker 1: your thoughts on that they should have that opinion somewhere else? 749 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:29,880 Speaker 1: Because I'm just you know, like I said, I can't 750 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 1: I can't even really be in conversation with individuals who 751 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 1: are trying to help me understand why Donald Trump is 752 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 1: good for our people, knowing that this man has literally 753 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 1: been a disaster that killed two hundred and forty thousand individuals. 754 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 1: But certainly I'm not trying to have you know, Charlotmagne's 755 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:51,359 Speaker 1: friend and Killer Mike's friend Campus Owens on my show. Well, 756 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 1: I would have conversations with Waka Flock or fifty or 757 00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,439 Speaker 1: you know, or a little pumba one them who said 758 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:02,239 Speaker 1: that they support, break down what they're saying and give 759 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 1: them an understanding of what they're doing, because a lot 760 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 1: of them don't have they don't even have knowledge of 761 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,920 Speaker 1: what they're talking about, and they're going along with you know, 762 00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 1: forced narratives that being put on the internet, and that 763 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 1: they're hearing and they don't have Like little Wayne doesn't 764 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 1: know what the platinum plan is. He just looked at 765 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 1: somebody told him it made sense. He probably has no 766 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:22,920 Speaker 1: idea what he's saying. So when you sit down and 767 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,399 Speaker 1: you really have a conversation with them and you break 768 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:27,840 Speaker 1: it down from beginning to end, I believe that we 769 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:31,760 Speaker 1: can come to some level of understanding and really educating people. 770 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 1: You're posted about Angel left and tweeted out about the Millionmagamarks, 771 00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,120 Speaker 1: where she was supporting it and saying it was good 772 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 1: until some end, whereas came and ruined everything. Yeah, yeah, 773 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:44,360 Speaker 1: you know. Well. And then the week before that, I 774 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 1: was on TMC and she wrote underneath someone posted the 775 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 1: video of me being on the show, and she wrote 776 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 1: on in the comments that black women know how to 777 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 1: do everything except keep their babies in their roomb or 778 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:03,400 Speaker 1: something like that. And so I wrote, because you know, 779 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:07,799 Speaker 1: sometimes the petty it comes over me and I can't 780 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:09,920 Speaker 1: help it. I try to fight it, but in this 781 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: particular situation, I just couldn't help it. And I sent 782 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: it to Charlemagne and said, and don't tell me to 783 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 1: delete it, because I'm not. She lost her election by 784 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 1: seventy plus percent in Atlanta, she just bring oh see, 785 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:30,160 Speaker 1: well exactly exactly. So she ran for Congressman Congressman John 786 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:33,760 Speaker 1: Lewis to c and people think that black folks are stupid, 787 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:37,600 Speaker 1: Like those people weren't just voting for Congressman Lewis because 788 00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,920 Speaker 1: you know, they just were like robots. They were voting 789 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,080 Speaker 1: for him because they believed in something. They had a 790 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,960 Speaker 1: connection to his work. So when you come in as 791 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 1: a person who's talking about carrying Donald Trump's message, there 792 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: is no way, shape or form that folks are going 793 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 1: to support that. And so they slapped her down and 794 00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:01,320 Speaker 1: I had to write on my page, I thought somebody 795 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 1: who lost the election by seventy not, like, how are 796 00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:08,080 Speaker 1: you talking about me? And you need to go figure 797 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 1: out where you went wrong this thing. So, no, we're 798 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,160 Speaker 1: not gonna get it because I you know, I probably 799 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 1: get into arguments and be looking crazy and then y'all 800 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,760 Speaker 1: will be texting me, this is not you, miss Nalary. 801 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:21,359 Speaker 1: You know, I don't want to hear that. They don't 802 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 1: realize that it really is that really is you? All Right? 803 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,960 Speaker 1: We got more with Tamika Mallory and Mason don't move. 804 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 1: It's the breakfast cloak of Morning Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, 805 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Sharlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast Club. 806 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 1: We have Tamika, Mallory and Mason in the building. Ye Now, 807 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 1: when we do look at everything that's going on in 808 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 1: hip hop right now, and there's been you know a 809 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 1: lot of unfortunate incidents that have happened in the past 810 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:47,560 Speaker 1: a few weeks. What it can be done? Because I 811 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:49,520 Speaker 1: you know, you have to come from a place where 812 00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 1: you're not preaching and trying to tell people what to do, 813 00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:55,279 Speaker 1: but what can be done. I think for me, I 814 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 1: think that's where you know, I played a role in 815 00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 1: just the movement in general. It's coming from hip hop 816 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 1: being incarcerated, being in the streets, understanding the dynamics of 817 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:07,960 Speaker 1: the streets, and being able to speak to them, not 818 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 1: like you said, don't preach to them, but let them 819 00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,960 Speaker 1: understand the realities of what come with that life. You know, 820 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 1: every day I'm dealing with young kids and mentor young kids. 821 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,839 Speaker 1: I have an organization and quote raising kings and which 822 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:21,759 Speaker 1: that's what we do. We sit down and talk to 823 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:25,240 Speaker 1: at risk youth and have conversations with them and explain 824 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,440 Speaker 1: to them what a real right to passage is and 825 00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:29,759 Speaker 1: what manhood really looks like. I think what happened with 826 00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 1: this hip hop culture is we start identifying the wrong 827 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 1: things with manhood and what quote unquote real was, you know, 828 00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 1: and we would misled. So there has to be a 829 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,680 Speaker 1: real conversation. People have to be honest and say, Yo, 830 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:45,200 Speaker 1: that's just not real. It's nothing real about you killing 831 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 1: your brother's nothing real about you beefing with somebody that 832 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:49,879 Speaker 1: you don't even know when you willing to take his life. 833 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:52,200 Speaker 1: That's not real. I don't know who told you that. 834 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:54,600 Speaker 1: Anybody who's telling you that is live. We got to 835 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 1: be able to call that out and make some make 836 00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:00,919 Speaker 1: being unified and make loving each other. What's in again? 837 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 1: What's trending? You know? We create what cool is? We 838 00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,320 Speaker 1: create the trends. I think we also have to understand 839 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:11,000 Speaker 1: that this pandemic has made people hungry for real, Like 840 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,280 Speaker 1: it's a different situation. We're going back to the eighties 841 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:19,000 Speaker 1: and the nineties. When people are hungry, people start and 842 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 1: how to figure it out. Because the stimulus money has 843 00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 1: ran out, they busy, you know, debated and by the way, 844 00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:28,120 Speaker 1: even if you give people another twelve hundred dollars or whatever. 845 00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: It's not enough money for folks to really survive and thrive. 846 00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:35,839 Speaker 1: So you're gonna see more and more violence. And that's why, 847 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 1: you know, everybody goes crazy about this whole defund the 848 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:43,880 Speaker 1: police topic. But it's important that we understand what defund 849 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 1: and the police will give us the opportunity to do, 850 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 1: and that is to be able to refund our communities, 851 00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:54,840 Speaker 1: as Mason said, and to put some moneys into the 852 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 1: things that we need in terms of housing, in terms 853 00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 1: of food, and Louisville can Kentucky. There is only one 854 00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:08,280 Speaker 1: supermarket in the entire town, and when there were protests happening, 855 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 1: that Kroger closed down and so people were unable to 856 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,399 Speaker 1: get real food. These are like real, live issues that's 857 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 1: happening in cities across this country and urban communities, which 858 00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:22,520 Speaker 1: creates violent situations. So we're going to see more of 859 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 1: it until we come to a place where we stop putting. Because, 860 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:29,239 Speaker 1: by the way, the police officers who we came up 861 00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:32,360 Speaker 1: against many times in Louisville at the protests, oh, they 862 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:36,880 Speaker 1: got the best equipment. They liked the apple of police department. 863 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:40,560 Speaker 1: They have all of this militarized equipment and yet there 864 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 1: are no mental health services and many of the people 865 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 1: who are protesting for Brianna Taylor every single day are 866 00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:50,520 Speaker 1: folks that don't have real housing. So we have to 867 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 1: be able to find balance so that we can take 868 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:57,320 Speaker 1: guns out of people's hands and give them the opportunities. 869 00:45:57,520 --> 00:45:59,760 Speaker 1: Tim Goa, why do you think Democrats get the messaging 870 00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:02,759 Speaker 1: of funding the police all wrong? I think Democrats are 871 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,879 Speaker 1: scared of everybody except the people who are the base 872 00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 1: of their party. I think that's the problem. I think 873 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:13,440 Speaker 1: that they that they are. And it depends on which 874 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 1: Democrats you're talking about, because if you think about some 875 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:20,400 Speaker 1: of the older, more established and some of the younger 876 00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 1: but people who lean towards the older, more establishment politics 877 00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:27,759 Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party, and then you think about the 878 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:32,840 Speaker 1: il han Omars and others Alexandria Cassio, they have no 879 00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 1: problem saying defund the police. And that tells you that 880 00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 1: there are two different mindsets that is happening within the party. 881 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 1: And by the way, many of the individuals who are 882 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 1: afraid to use language like defund have been losing their elections. 883 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 1: But that's a that's a whole different story. Now what 884 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:53,400 Speaker 1: about You know a lot of people feel like Joe Biden, 885 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:56,040 Speaker 1: as far as the presidency was just as were especially 886 00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:58,800 Speaker 1: black people, was just as worse as Donald Trump. What 887 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 1: do you say to those people because some peop but 888 00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:04,280 Speaker 1: they're no different the drop but they no different. Listen, 889 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 1: those people right there, those people right there right are 890 00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:13,680 Speaker 1: ignoring immediate imminent danger as we see. Does Joe Biden 891 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 1: have racism, Yes he does. He's a racist. I don't 892 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,960 Speaker 1: believe that any seventy year old white man doesn't have 893 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:25,200 Speaker 1: a level of racism and uneducated in racial sensitivity and 894 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:28,239 Speaker 1: understanding certain things. And that's something that Joe Biden is 895 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 1: definitely guilty, guilty of. But there's an intentional white supremacist 896 00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:38,919 Speaker 1: racist mentality that Donald Trump exudes, he activates every time 897 00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 1: he speaks and is purposely done. So when we look 898 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,960 Speaker 1: at those two things, we we compare to ninety four 899 00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:47,320 Speaker 1: crack bill, I mean the ninety four crime bill and 900 00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:53,000 Speaker 1: a mandatory minimum citizen, and we talk about those things, 901 00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:55,919 Speaker 1: we have to realize that those were twenty plus years. 902 00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:59,600 Speaker 1: But in two thousand and twenty, there is a president 903 00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:02,439 Speaker 1: right now who is out here doing the exact same 904 00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:04,680 Speaker 1: thing that somebody was doing twenty plush years ago and 905 00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:08,839 Speaker 1: planning to further that activity. There's one who might want 906 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 1: to make amends for that activity that he did twenty 907 00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:14,280 Speaker 1: years ago. Yeah, what I tell people is Joe Biden 908 00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:17,399 Speaker 1: has implemented legislation that has ruined way more Black people 909 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:20,600 Speaker 1: than anything Trump is implemented. Yet, if Trump would have 910 00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:23,839 Speaker 1: stayed in that White House, he was already rolling back 911 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 1: the war on drugs, mass and causation, all of that. 912 00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:29,279 Speaker 1: That first step back was an illusion. But you know, 913 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,879 Speaker 1: but I think that when you you know, the whole 914 00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 1: idea of the two men being a light yep, I 915 00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:38,440 Speaker 1: think that it is probably true that they have some similarities. 916 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,080 Speaker 1: I'm not going to argue with that, but I do 917 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,399 Speaker 1: know that one of them decided to bring a black 918 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 1: woman along and the other one. Every black woman that's 919 00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:49,600 Speaker 1: been around has been disrespected and treated like trash. Damn Well, 920 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:52,600 Speaker 1: we are our own responsibility too, because once you left 921 00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:54,920 Speaker 1: the president, it's not just okay, let's wait and hope 922 00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 1: he does what we need them to do for us. 923 00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 1: That just means that we have to make sure we 924 00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:00,880 Speaker 1: keep our foots on their next to make sure what 925 00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:02,839 Speaker 1: we need to get done for our community. And that's 926 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 1: our responsibility as well. And that's why that's why I 927 00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:07,400 Speaker 1: got hoped right now, because because of the people like 928 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:09,600 Speaker 1: to me getting my son being on the ground. But 929 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,840 Speaker 1: that's what we did with Obama. We had a party. 930 00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:15,759 Speaker 1: We went to the Christmas parties because I was there 931 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:20,000 Speaker 1: and I was siland I was taking I was in 932 00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:23,600 Speaker 1: the White House several times. The party was a big, big, 933 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:26,840 Speaker 1: big deal. When you got that invitation to the Christmas party, 934 00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:28,840 Speaker 1: you was, You was in the You was in the 935 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:31,719 Speaker 1: cool crowd. You know what I'm saying. And I was saying, 936 00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:36,800 Speaker 1: we cannot allow uh the line dancing to go on 937 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:40,719 Speaker 1: Memorial Weekend in May and forget about the work that 938 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:43,279 Speaker 1: has to happen. So what demand do you think need 939 00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:47,279 Speaker 1: to be placed on the Biden Harris administration. I think 940 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:51,719 Speaker 1: we need to I'm sorry, I think we absolutely need 941 00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:55,600 Speaker 1: to go back to UH said task force and begin 942 00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,880 Speaker 1: to look into these departments. I think also they need 943 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:02,600 Speaker 1: to instruct their FBI and you know, and and the 944 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:05,400 Speaker 1: Department of Justice. Rather forget the FBI, they need to 945 00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:08,719 Speaker 1: instruct the Department of Justice to look into some of 946 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,880 Speaker 1: these real serious cases like Brianna Taylor. All Right, we 947 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,799 Speaker 1: got more with Tamika, Mallory and Mason don't move. It's 948 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:21,239 Speaker 1: the breakfast cloakal Morning Morning. Everybody's Angela, Charlemagne the guy. 949 00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 1: We are the breakfast Club. We have Tamika, Mallory and 950 00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:26,680 Speaker 1: Myson in the building. Charlemagne. Now, you know what I 951 00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:28,879 Speaker 1: wanted to ask, y'all? When when when do you turn 952 00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:32,000 Speaker 1: people off? Like? Because going back to Angela and Kansas, right, 953 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 1: because in their mind they feel like they are liberating 954 00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:38,800 Speaker 1: black people. What what would you tell them about liberating 955 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:41,160 Speaker 1: black people? What do you think they're doing wrong? Who 956 00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:45,440 Speaker 1: are you talking about? Like your cousins, Tamika, those are 957 00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 1: her cousins. I listen. I love you know, I actually 958 00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:51,719 Speaker 1: like Candice as as a person. I've had conversations with her. 959 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:54,719 Speaker 1: Um we sat on the panel together. I wasn't feeling well. 960 00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:57,680 Speaker 1: She was really you know, concerned about that. We had 961 00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:03,000 Speaker 1: a good conversation. But you know, people work for folks. 962 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:05,919 Speaker 1: People be trying to get them checks like that's really 963 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,520 Speaker 1: it's nothing more you can say. You know, I think 964 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:12,759 Speaker 1: an Angela's standing situation. You're thinking, you know, she was 965 00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 1: pardon and we get that, and it was a good 966 00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:18,680 Speaker 1: thing that her story is strong. We know that her 967 00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:21,279 Speaker 1: story is solid. I love her story. That's why I 968 00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:23,880 Speaker 1: was attracted to her. But then as you begin to 969 00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:27,759 Speaker 1: dig deeper into these people who follow Trump, many of 970 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:30,960 Speaker 1: it it's like cult like behavior, you know. And and 971 00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:35,120 Speaker 1: I've been saying over and over again, Yes, on one hand, 972 00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:39,520 Speaker 1: we could see some benefit to any administration. There's nobody 973 00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:41,719 Speaker 1: that's going to come into office and you just say, oh, 974 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:44,759 Speaker 1: they did nothing. They just totally did nothing at all. 975 00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:48,200 Speaker 1: Everybody just because of the way the government works. There's 976 00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:51,640 Speaker 1: going to be some pushing pull, there'll be some benefits, 977 00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:54,600 Speaker 1: but overall, it's like looking at Trump and it's my 978 00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,440 Speaker 1: same argument. But ice cube, it's my same argument with 979 00:51:57,560 --> 00:51:59,920 Speaker 1: fifty cent it's the same argument I have, where all 980 00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:02,560 Speaker 1: all of them on one side. You might be able 981 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:05,279 Speaker 1: to get you a nice house, a nice car, you 982 00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:07,839 Speaker 1: can get you a diamond ring, but when you get home, 983 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:10,759 Speaker 1: the man is going to beat you and bloody your 984 00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,600 Speaker 1: eyes and choke you and damn near killing you. So 985 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:17,000 Speaker 1: these things can't be dealt with separately. They have to 986 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,160 Speaker 1: be looked at as an entire pie. If you're going 987 00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:22,759 Speaker 1: into the administration and you're working with them to get 988 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:26,240 Speaker 1: some economic relief, but then on the streets, they're allowing 989 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 1: police departments across the nation to beat up on those 990 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:32,759 Speaker 1: of us who are fighting for our rights. Those conversations 991 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:36,160 Speaker 1: can't can't happen in isolation. They have to happen at 992 00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:39,799 Speaker 1: the same time. And I know I'm probably talking too much, 993 00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:42,400 Speaker 1: but I have to say this. It was my same thing, 994 00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:45,440 Speaker 1: you know, I was. I was real careful, an ice 995 00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:48,360 Speaker 1: cute thing because I have learned to try my best 996 00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:51,399 Speaker 1: not to fight with black people in public as much 997 00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:55,600 Speaker 1: as possible. I've been working on that, especially with black men, 998 00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:59,040 Speaker 1: because there have been moments when I've had some real 999 00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:01,800 Speaker 1: knockdown draft house with black men in public, and it 1000 00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 1: has hurt other black men that I loved. Especially as 1001 00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:07,239 Speaker 1: a black woman. I know that our power is so 1002 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 1: strong that we have to be careful when and how 1003 00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:12,480 Speaker 1: we use our words. And my son doesn't enough for 1004 00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:14,680 Speaker 1: both of us, So I just let him be one 1005 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:17,560 Speaker 1: to go out and argue with people all day. And 1006 00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:20,239 Speaker 1: the situation where Ice Cuba took me a while, I 1007 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,600 Speaker 1: watched and as I grow it, rather than me speaking 1008 00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:27,160 Speaker 1: on it publicly. At first, I sat back and I watched, 1009 00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:30,080 Speaker 1: and he tweeted something the other day. That helped me 1010 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:34,319 Speaker 1: realize that I wasn't wrong for feeling that the way 1011 00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:37,120 Speaker 1: in which they approached the situation with what he was 1012 00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:38,960 Speaker 1: trying to do, which I think was a good thing, 1013 00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:42,560 Speaker 1: but the way in which they approached it, I already 1014 00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:45,360 Speaker 1: knew that it wasn't I didn't agree with it. He 1015 00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:49,440 Speaker 1: tweeted a list of names of individuals that he talked to, 1016 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:51,960 Speaker 1: and he was saying, don't try to tell me that 1017 00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:55,640 Speaker 1: I didn't speak to real people before putting together my plan, 1018 00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:59,399 Speaker 1: and it was not one black woman listed, not one. 1019 00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:03,279 Speaker 1: And I knew right then that if you had the 1020 00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:07,320 Speaker 1: right black woman like Alicia Garza at the table to 1021 00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:10,279 Speaker 1: be a part of the conversation, she would have said, 1022 00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:13,120 Speaker 1: here's the direction that I think we need to take 1023 00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:16,400 Speaker 1: with our people so that we can mitigate any potential 1024 00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:21,000 Speaker 1: harm in this particular election process. She also would have 1025 00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:23,759 Speaker 1: been able to bring forth other things aside from it. 1026 00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 1: I know that maternity death is a major problem that 1027 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:30,600 Speaker 1: seems to be the only real substantive thing in his 1028 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:34,080 Speaker 1: plan that has to do with black women. If you 1029 00:54:34,280 --> 00:54:36,880 Speaker 1: don't have a strong black woman at the table, and 1030 00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:39,640 Speaker 1: it doesn't have to be Tomka Mallory but whoever it 1031 00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:42,399 Speaker 1: is that is able to help advise what you're doing, 1032 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:45,839 Speaker 1: your plan is already going in the wrong direction. Yeah, 1033 00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:48,440 Speaker 1: that's crazy coming from Q too, because I saw when 1034 00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:50,640 Speaker 1: Roland tried to connect Cube and Alicia, so it's not 1035 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:54,239 Speaker 1: like he doesn't know Alicia exists. Right before I sit 1036 00:54:54,320 --> 00:54:56,839 Speaker 1: down and I'm gonna have a conversation with somebody who's 1037 00:54:56,880 --> 00:54:59,279 Speaker 1: been a sworn enemy to me, you have to show 1038 00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:02,800 Speaker 1: me some level of change.

Now. I read aheadline from you yesterday that 1057 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 1: I had to put on my Instagram page because it 1058 00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:18,840 Speaker 1: was so completely culturally clueless that it was disgusting. You 1059 00:56:18,880 --> 00:56:20,600 Speaker 1: can go look at it for yourself my Instagram and 1060 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,160 Speaker 1: see to God cetch g o D. It's one of 1061 00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:26,359 Speaker 1: those moments where you realize why diversity matters so much, 1062 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:28,560 Speaker 1: because when you have the large reach out of Yahoo 1063 00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:32,040 Speaker 1: Finance does and you put out this type of misinformation, 1064 00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:36,400 Speaker 1: it's just straight up erasure, straight up not acknowledging what 1065 00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:39,399 Speaker 1: culturally someone has done. I wouldn't go so far as 1066 00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:42,279 Speaker 1: to say this is a colonizer's way of seeing the world, 1067 00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:44,920 Speaker 1: because when you are a white privileged male, you have 1068 00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:47,640 Speaker 1: cultural blind spots because you don't have to pay attention 1069 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:50,160 Speaker 1: to everybody else and everything you do see that's a 1070 00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:53,680 Speaker 1: first for you. Since you are an almighty all knowing 1071 00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: white man, must be a first for everyone else. Right, 1072 00:56:57,520 --> 00:56:59,919 Speaker 1: In this case, it's not about a first. It's about 1073 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:04,640 Speaker 1: something that has been a staple in black hip hop 1074 00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:08,520 Speaker 1: New York culture for years.

Not 1147 01:00:58,080 --> 01:01:01,440 Speaker 1: knowing all Tims ain't good Tims. That right there sums 1148 01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:04,240 Speaker 1: up today's donkey of the day. In a tweet, Brian 1149 01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:07,360 Speaker 1: Sazzi of Yahoo Finance wrote a whole article saying Kamala 1150 01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:09,760 Speaker 1: Harris may have made Tims cool again, as if Tims 1151 01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:12,560 Speaker 1: have ever been anything less than cool. Brian wrote in 1152 01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:17,240 Speaker 1: his article, what better validation of Timberland's ruggedness mixed with 1153 01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:21,120 Speaker 1: comfort than Senator Harris's entire day in them. Don't talk 1154 01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:24,040 Speaker 1: to me about comfort and ruggedness of Timberlands if you 1155 01:01:24,120 --> 01:01:26,720 Speaker 1: have not found a way to wear them year round 1156 01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:29,920 Speaker 1: like my brother wax on my man is biscuit. Until 1157 01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:32,800 Speaker 1: you've worn Tims on the beach like wax and it's 1158 01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:35,800 Speaker 1: biscuit and Jesus from Jesus and Marrow, don't tell me 1159 01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 1: about ruggedness mixed with comfort? Okay? Brian Sazo said, what 1160 01:01:39,800 --> 01:01:43,000 Speaker 1: better signal to shoppers that Tims could be cool again? 1161 01:01:43,600 --> 01:01:47,800 Speaker 1: Maybe not early nineties cool, but cool now that Harris 1162 01:01:47,920 --> 01:01:51,080 Speaker 1: is wearing a sneaker like version of the iconic footwear. 1163 01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:55,240 Speaker 1: That right there is the problem Brian sneaker like version 1164 01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:58,600 Speaker 1: of Tim's. We don't do that. Okay, just go read 1165 01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:01,720 Speaker 1: under my comments on the Graham all right, sim Ur 1166 01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:04,200 Speaker 1: sim here at iHeart says it looks like she has 1167 01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:08,200 Speaker 1: on the single soul Tim's blasphemy. Rocky Thunder said those 1168 01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:11,880 Speaker 1: the Burlington coat factory butters. Willie d from Nick Ghetto 1169 01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:15,720 Speaker 1: Boys said, in reference to you, Brian, his mama should 1170 01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:18,160 Speaker 1: be embarrassed and his daddy should have pulled out no 1171 01:02:18,360 --> 01:02:22,920 Speaker 1: mo talk, my man. Eugene, who works at the NAACP said, 1172 01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:26,480 Speaker 1: and I quote, if we weren't fighting forty five, she 1173 01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:28,960 Speaker 1: would have lost my vote on the lace up alone. 1174 01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:32,200 Speaker 1: Poor Senator Kamala Harris was cutting off all circulation to 1175 01:02:32,320 --> 01:02:34,440 Speaker 1: her ankles. The way she had those boots tied, like 1176 01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:36,480 Speaker 1: she really had them tied, like she was going to 1177 01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:39,200 Speaker 1: work on somebody's construction site. The moral of the story 1178 01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:42,479 Speaker 1: is Tim's have always been cool, Brian. In fact, Jimmy 1179 01:02:42,560 --> 01:02:45,520 Speaker 1: Choue released the Collaborate Tims this week, real tims, the 1180 01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:49,160 Speaker 1: six inch week premium joints, not whatever Senator Harris had on. 1181 01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:51,680 Speaker 1: And that's not her fault. But clearly she don't have 1182 01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:54,400 Speaker 1: anyone around her to tell her what Tim's the rock 1183 01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:56,480 Speaker 1: and how to rock him. If you're watching us on 1184 01:02:56,640 --> 01:03:01,320 Speaker 1: Revote TV, please please Revote put up this picture of aoc.

That's the kind of 1187 01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:10,640 Speaker 1: Tims you rock, and that is how you rock them. Okay, 1188 01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:13,960 Speaker 1: that was last year. I believe right. I think that 1189 01:03:14,080 --> 01:03:15,960 Speaker 1: was last year. You know why she had those on 1190 01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:20,840 Speaker 1: last year, Brian, because Tims have always been cool. Please 1191 01:03:20,920 --> 01:03:24,360 Speaker 1: let Chelsea Handler give Brian Shazzy of Yahoo Finance the 1192 01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:27,720 Speaker 1: biggest he hare hee haw hee haw.

Thank you, thank you. How you holding up 1214 01:04:41,640 --> 01:04:44,240 Speaker 1: during the pandemic. How was that for you? You know 1215 01:04:44,320 --> 01:04:48,520 Speaker 1: what I gotta say, wildly challenging off top, but it's 1216 01:04:48,600 --> 01:04:50,640 Speaker 1: been probably one of the best years of my life. 1217 01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:54,040 Speaker 1: Really well, you know, I really deepened my spiritual journey. 1218 01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:56,760 Speaker 1: I was already on this path and I was, you know, 1219 01:04:56,880 --> 01:04:59,720 Speaker 1: kind of diligently doing the work, and then this gave 1220 01:04:59,760 --> 01:05:02,160 Speaker 1: me opportunity to kind of deepen some of that healing, 1221 01:05:02,280 --> 01:05:05,560 Speaker 1: to understand ways in which to help other people heal. 1222 01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:08,960 Speaker 1: And you know, this time it I feel like it's 1223 01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:11,880 Speaker 1: been challenging for quite a lot of people because so 1224 01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:14,720 Speaker 1: many are meeting themselves for the first time, you know, 1225 01:05:15,040 --> 01:05:18,680 Speaker 1: spending that much time with themselves and being in their thoughts. 1226 01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:20,960 Speaker 1: But if you let it, it can be so beautiful. 1227 01:05:21,120 --> 01:05:23,120 Speaker 1: You get to the root of anything that was holding 1228 01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:26,120 Speaker 1: you back. You have the chance to cultivate a really deep, 1229 01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:29,920 Speaker 1: beautiful internal relationship with self. There's just a there's a 1230 01:05:29,960 --> 01:05:32,840 Speaker 1: lot of opportunity to it. Well, let's talk about your 1231 01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:40,800 Speaker 1: journey and how this became your calling. Yes, well, y'all know, 1232 01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:44,640 Speaker 1: I started a radio born and raised in La You know, 1233 01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:48,040 Speaker 1: the thing that led me to radio was I was 1234 01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:52,320 Speaker 1: so deeply curious about storytelling, curious about myself, curious about 1235 01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:54,560 Speaker 1: the world. Like radio is one of the most sacred, 1236 01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:57,080 Speaker 1: in my opinion, art forms, like you get to share 1237 01:05:57,200 --> 01:06:00,919 Speaker 1: space in someone's mind, and I loved for so long. 1238 01:06:01,080 --> 01:06:03,560 Speaker 1: But then when I started my journey, I just found 1239 01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:06,560 Speaker 1: that I was really called to study metaphysics, I was 1240 01:06:06,680 --> 01:06:10,440 Speaker 1: really called to study trauma, and I kind of just 1241 01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:13,480 Speaker 1: found myself not easily being able to stay up on 1242 01:06:13,560 --> 01:06:16,280 Speaker 1: current events or you know, really wanting to just talk 1243 01:06:16,320 --> 01:06:19,000 Speaker 1: about some other things. And so I pivoted and I 1244 01:06:19,120 --> 01:06:22,960 Speaker 1: went into the self care, wellness mindfulness world, which I 1245 01:06:23,080 --> 01:06:25,320 Speaker 1: did it kind of before the big bang hit on 1246 01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:29,720 Speaker 1: social media of wellness, and so it was very uncharted territory. 1247 01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:31,320 Speaker 1: I didn't know if I made the right choice for 1248 01:06:31,400 --> 01:06:35,240 Speaker 1: a long time, but I stuck with it and I felt, 1249 01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:37,120 Speaker 1: you know, I just feel like my calling is to 1250 01:06:37,200 --> 01:06:39,920 Speaker 1: help people heal. You know, we throw these terms around that. 1251 01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:42,920 Speaker 1: We say, you know, mental health, we say mindfulness, we 1252 01:06:43,000 --> 01:06:46,680 Speaker 1: say wellness, we say healing. What is all of that 1253 01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:49,120 Speaker 1: to you? And in particular mindfulness, what is that to you? 1254 01:06:49,600 --> 01:06:52,800 Speaker 1: So mindfulness is it's really rooted in a slowing down 1255 01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:55,800 Speaker 1: kind of you know, the very simplified term would be 1256 01:06:55,920 --> 01:06:58,360 Speaker 1: to be mindful, to have things kind of top of mind, 1257 01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:00,680 Speaker 1: to have a set of intention that's and planted, and 1258 01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:04,120 Speaker 1: that's the way you're navigating your spiritual values in the world. 1259 01:07:04,800 --> 01:07:07,440 Speaker 1: But what I think it is more clearly, and I 1260 01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:10,080 Speaker 1: think a lot of the conversation around healing, it's like 1261 01:07:10,320 --> 01:07:14,840 Speaker 1: mental health here, mindfulness wellness here, and it's like you 1262 01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:17,640 Speaker 1: have to have both, and they have to be integrated. 1263 01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:19,840 Speaker 1: For you to really live the fullest life possible, you 1264 01:07:19,920 --> 01:07:22,560 Speaker 1: have to do some of that deeper trauma healing, which 1265 01:07:23,080 --> 01:07:26,320 Speaker 1: mental health is so great for. Talk therapy, somatic therapy 1266 01:07:26,440 --> 01:07:29,320 Speaker 1: is so beautiful for but you also need that peace 1267 01:07:29,440 --> 01:07:31,480 Speaker 1: that makes it real for you and not just stuck 1268 01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:34,440 Speaker 1: in your brain, not just intellectualizing it. It has to 1269 01:07:34,560 --> 01:07:36,560 Speaker 1: come down to your heart so that you can actually 1270 01:07:36,600 --> 01:07:39,000 Speaker 1: embody and live it. Why do mental health and mindfulness 1271 01:07:39,040 --> 01:07:41,120 Speaker 1: go hand in hand? You think, well, you have to 1272 01:07:41,160 --> 01:07:43,479 Speaker 1: have integration, so you have to have the mind, body 1273 01:07:43,600 --> 01:07:46,160 Speaker 1: soul connection to have the full experience of being a 1274 01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:48,560 Speaker 1: whole human being. And a lot of times when we 1275 01:07:48,760 --> 01:07:52,160 Speaker 1: just focus on the mental health point, which is just 1276 01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:55,440 Speaker 1: incredibly important, but when we just focus on that, you're 1277 01:07:55,480 --> 01:07:59,000 Speaker 1: missing so many other opportunities to love yourself, to get 1278 01:07:59,040 --> 01:08:02,600 Speaker 1: to know yourself. You know, part of the reason we're 1279 01:08:02,680 --> 01:08:05,680 Speaker 1: so disconnected from ourselves is because we feel foreign in 1280 01:08:05,720 --> 01:08:08,120 Speaker 1: our own bodies, especially if you're a person of color. 1281 01:08:08,520 --> 01:08:11,960 Speaker 1: You know, you were trained through systemic racism, through years 1282 01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:16,160 Speaker 1: of ancestral trauma to not really feel safe in your 1283 01:08:16,200 --> 01:08:18,880 Speaker 1: own body, and so self care is really such a 1284 01:08:19,080 --> 01:08:23,000 Speaker 1: radical form of revolution for us as people of color, 1285 01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:26,120 Speaker 1: to really be able to sit inside yourself and enjoy 1286 01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:28,920 Speaker 1: where you're spending that time, to be able to even 1287 01:08:29,400 --> 01:08:32,559 Speaker 1: touch yourself, to love your body, you know, to feel yourself. 1288 01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:36,400 Speaker 1: It's so so important, and I think so many people 1289 01:08:36,439 --> 01:08:40,240 Speaker 1: don't realize how rare that is, especially depending on your circumstance. 1290 01:08:40,400 --> 01:08:42,840 Speaker 1: You know, even to hold eye contact with another person 1291 01:08:42,920 --> 01:08:45,600 Speaker 1: and so sacred and intimate, and so many people have 1292 01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:49,600 Speaker 1: a real challenge being able to do that because of 1293 01:08:49,680 --> 01:08:52,439 Speaker 1: how they experience themselves. What was the turning point for 1294 01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:55,000 Speaker 1: you that that got you, that got you really into it? 1295 01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:56,960 Speaker 1: Was it something that you've seen, Was it some trauma 1296 01:08:57,040 --> 01:08:59,040 Speaker 1: that happened to you. Was it a fringe trauma? Like 1297 01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:02,160 Speaker 1: what got you so into it? When I started really 1298 01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:06,040 Speaker 1: investigating myself, looking back at my history, looking back at 1299 01:09:06,080 --> 01:09:09,680 Speaker 1: my experiences, and seeing what I thought they meant about me, 1300 01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:11,599 Speaker 1: So much of the things that happened to us when 1301 01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:15,360 Speaker 1: we're children, even if they're not major, you perceived major traumas, 1302 01:09:15,840 --> 01:09:18,080 Speaker 1: they plant these seeds of how we grow to feel 1303 01:09:18,120 --> 01:09:20,080 Speaker 1: about ourselves and how we grow to see the world. 1304 01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:22,840 Speaker 1: And so when I started really investigating, like why do 1305 01:09:22,960 --> 01:09:24,680 Speaker 1: I think this way? Why do I feel that way. 1306 01:09:24,840 --> 01:09:27,080 Speaker 1: Why do I experience like a charge in my chest 1307 01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:30,000 Speaker 1: or an anxiety when this happens and you slowly start 1308 01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:32,559 Speaker 1: peeling back the layers, and before you know it, it's 1309 01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:35,240 Speaker 1: like this memory as a three year old of misinterpreting 1310 01:09:35,400 --> 01:09:38,400 Speaker 1: something that happened, that planted a seed that you built 1311 01:09:38,479 --> 01:09:41,000 Speaker 1: upon and built upon and built upon, and before you 1312 01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:42,880 Speaker 1: knew it, you know, you were in a space where 1313 01:09:42,880 --> 01:09:45,000 Speaker 1: maybe you didn't really care about yourself, or you didn't 1314 01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:47,720 Speaker 1: think you were worth it or worthy. Really all the 1315 01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:51,880 Speaker 1: human experiences is remembering your wholeness. But people when of 1316 01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:54,240 Speaker 1: guests didded on a spiritual journey but don't know where 1317 01:09:54,280 --> 01:09:57,200 Speaker 1: to begin, what would you tell them would be one 1318 01:09:57,240 --> 01:09:59,560 Speaker 1: of the first steps. Oh man, You know, one of 1319 01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:02,439 Speaker 1: the first steps is just really setting the intention to 1320 01:10:02,560 --> 01:10:05,559 Speaker 1: become more and to be better. There's so much power 1321 01:10:05,640 --> 01:10:08,120 Speaker 1: in planning the seat of intention, and you can do 1322 01:10:08,240 --> 01:10:11,400 Speaker 1: that with affirmations, you know, depending especially on your cultural 1323 01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:15,839 Speaker 1: belief system, there is so much so many family systems 1324 01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:18,760 Speaker 1: that really restrict your ability to connect to yourself, and 1325 01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:21,320 Speaker 1: so many belief systems that tell you you have to 1326 01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:23,840 Speaker 1: have a middleman to get to the divine, to get 1327 01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:26,519 Speaker 1: to God. But God resides in all of us, like 1328 01:10:26,640 --> 01:10:30,840 Speaker 1: our ability to grow and transcend is always there, you know. 1329 01:10:31,040 --> 01:10:33,640 Speaker 1: And I think in the mindfulness world, whatever you like 1330 01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:35,800 Speaker 1: to call your higher power, if you believe in one, 1331 01:10:35,920 --> 01:10:39,320 Speaker 1: it's really just saying I'm ready to become more. Show 1332 01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:43,120 Speaker 1: me how, or something I love saying to myself is God, 1333 01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:45,280 Speaker 1: please show me the deeper truth of who I am. 1334 01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:48,280 Speaker 1: And then I disconnect from whatever that answer is, and 1335 01:10:48,400 --> 01:10:51,120 Speaker 1: I let the answers just slowly show up, and the 1336 01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:54,040 Speaker 1: right teachers or the right readings or the right conversations 1337 01:10:54,560 --> 01:10:57,920 Speaker 1: just begin to populate your life in a really delicious way. 1338 01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:02,240 Speaker 1: Cannegative energy attract prosit of energy death? No? Impossible? Yeah, 1339 01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:07,080 Speaker 1: it's impossible, you know. It's the energetic exchange is such 1340 01:11:07,160 --> 01:11:11,240 Speaker 1: a deeply powerful and sacred experience. And when you're rooted 1341 01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:14,479 Speaker 1: in negativity, we're each we're each the co creators of 1342 01:11:14,520 --> 01:11:17,719 Speaker 1: our life. So we're in co creation with divine power 1343 01:11:17,800 --> 01:11:19,640 Speaker 1: or whatever you like to call that higher power to 1344 01:11:19,800 --> 01:11:23,439 Speaker 1: really manifest the life of your highest vision. When we 1345 01:11:23,640 --> 01:11:27,280 Speaker 1: hold onto those seeds of negativity, or we consider ourselves 1346 01:11:27,360 --> 01:11:30,960 Speaker 1: to be stuck or unworthy of more, which typically if 1347 01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:33,400 Speaker 1: you're negative it's because you've given up a belief that 1348 01:11:33,560 --> 01:11:36,120 Speaker 1: you can have more or that you deserve more, and 1349 01:11:36,280 --> 01:11:39,679 Speaker 1: when you give into that mindframe, it doesn't allow any 1350 01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:42,240 Speaker 1: cracks in your wounds for the light to get through. 1351 01:11:42,600 --> 01:11:44,920 Speaker 1: So it's really hard from that space to be able 1352 01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:47,679 Speaker 1: to attract positivity, which is not to say you won't 1353 01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:49,600 Speaker 1: encounter some, but you just may not be able to 1354 01:11:49,680 --> 01:11:52,400 Speaker 1: recognize it when it shows up. Keep it lock. We 1355 01:11:52,479 --> 01:11:54,679 Speaker 1: have more coming up next. It's the Breakfast Club Morning. 1356 01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:58,680 Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela, Ye, Chage guy. We all 1357 01:11:58,720 --> 01:12:00,920 Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club.

Um. 1360 01:12:09,240 --> 01:12:12,200 Speaker 1: I talk about thinking like my own musings, observations I'm 1361 01:12:12,240 --> 01:12:15,000 Speaker 1: having about the world, observations I'm having about myself as 1362 01:12:15,040 --> 01:12:17,320 Speaker 1: I do the work. I have guests on. You know, 1363 01:12:17,600 --> 01:12:20,280 Speaker 1: I had Charlemagne on the show talking about really unpacking 1364 01:12:20,360 --> 01:12:22,320 Speaker 1: his journey. I would love to have you, Envy. I 1365 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:24,280 Speaker 1: would love to have you Angela. So note to self, 1366 01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:27,960 Speaker 1: stunt on them real quick. Well, we were just on 1367 01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:30,599 Speaker 1: a little vacation in Mexico.

So oh, of course it's easy for you. 1375 01:12:55,280 --> 01:12:57,840 Speaker 1: And it's really about getting into like the cellular level 1376 01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:00,200 Speaker 1: of like how did that switch start happening and how 1377 01:13:00,240 --> 01:13:02,879 Speaker 1: did you start allowing yourself to see the world differently 1378 01:13:02,920 --> 01:13:05,799 Speaker 1: and to shift? And in this season, I'm really excited 1379 01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:08,439 Speaker 1: because we're deep diving into a lot of metaphysics. I 1380 01:13:08,520 --> 01:13:11,760 Speaker 1: have incredible guests coming on the show, people doing deep 1381 01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:15,679 Speaker 1: work and decolonizing the mental health field, joy and pleasure work, 1382 01:13:16,040 --> 01:13:18,640 Speaker 1: really bringing pleasure to the forefront as a way to 1383 01:13:18,720 --> 01:13:22,599 Speaker 1: help women heal using orgasms to manifest. We talk about 1384 01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:26,960 Speaker 1: that on the show that what yeah, yeah, we're getting there. 1385 01:13:27,080 --> 01:13:29,599 Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot of facets to this wellness. 1386 01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:33,920 Speaker 1: It's not just meditation. There's so many healing modalities and 1387 01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:36,160 Speaker 1: so many tools to be on this journey, and so 1388 01:13:36,680 --> 01:13:38,560 Speaker 1: this season I'm really trying to unpack it. So for 1389 01:13:38,640 --> 01:13:41,160 Speaker 1: people that are like, oh, I can't meditate, there's no way, 1390 01:13:41,240 --> 01:13:43,920 Speaker 1: or oh that looks weird. This looks weird. I'm really 1391 01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:47,720 Speaker 1: looking to present so many different entry points for this path. 1392 01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:50,160 Speaker 1: How did you break through with Shamagne? I mean, because 1393 01:13:50,840 --> 01:13:53,360 Speaker 1: you know we talk, I mean, I mean with being honest. 1394 01:13:53,360 --> 01:13:55,200 Speaker 1: You know, Shallemagne in a long time, and you know 1395 01:13:55,360 --> 01:13:58,479 Speaker 1: how he was, you know, hurt people, hurt people, to 1396 01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:00,880 Speaker 1: make fun of people all the time. You know, how 1397 01:14:00,960 --> 01:14:03,120 Speaker 1: did you get him out of that way? He's changed 1398 01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:05,000 Speaker 1: a little bit where you know, I'm seeing him, you know, 1399 01:14:05,120 --> 01:14:08,120 Speaker 1: walking outside with his bad toes, you know, hugging days 1400 01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:09,800 Speaker 1: and things like that, Like how did you get him 1401 01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:14,559 Speaker 1: to that part? Well, Charlemagne has divine light on him, 1402 01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:17,160 Speaker 1: so I think that has always been in his card 1403 01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:20,320 Speaker 1: since he was born to live this really beautifully big life. 1404 01:14:21,200 --> 01:14:23,760 Speaker 1: I think, you know, it's like Charlemagne gets all the 1405 01:14:23,800 --> 01:14:26,200 Speaker 1: credit for that. He's done the work. You know, he's 1406 01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:28,479 Speaker 1: deep dived into himself, and I think that it's so 1407 01:14:28,920 --> 01:14:31,640 Speaker 1: hard to look at yourself for real. You know, we 1408 01:14:31,760 --> 01:14:34,200 Speaker 1: get so caught in this idea of shame, or this 1409 01:14:34,360 --> 01:14:36,439 Speaker 1: idea of what we don't deserve, or this idea that 1410 01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:39,840 Speaker 1: past decisions that we've made have to define what the 1411 01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:42,040 Speaker 1: rest of our life is going to look like, especially 1412 01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:45,240 Speaker 1: with council culture. And I think it's so important that, 1413 01:14:45,600 --> 01:14:48,320 Speaker 1: you know, we allow people the room to stretch and 1414 01:14:48,439 --> 01:14:51,599 Speaker 1: to grow, like as a society, we can only expand 1415 01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:55,000 Speaker 1: as the highest level of consciousness that we possess. He's 1416 01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:57,600 Speaker 1: super woke now. Now when I see Charlemagne hugging a 1417 01:14:57,680 --> 01:15:00,320 Speaker 1: tree and holding a tree and walking a around in 1418 01:15:00,360 --> 01:15:03,920 Speaker 1: the grass, was ugly told you did not have a 1419 01:15:03,960 --> 01:15:07,240 Speaker 1: pedicule number two that was called grounding, sir, Okay, I 1420 01:15:07,320 --> 01:15:10,400 Speaker 1: was centering myself be hug insures too, So why is 1421 01:15:10,400 --> 01:15:13,280 Speaker 1: that important to tell them why grounding is important? We 1422 01:15:13,439 --> 01:15:16,240 Speaker 1: have to get anchored, you know. So when we're on 1423 01:15:16,400 --> 01:15:20,639 Speaker 1: earth and we're experiencing this human experience as spiritual beings, 1424 01:15:21,080 --> 01:15:23,559 Speaker 1: we have to ground We have to remember to get centered. 1425 01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:25,840 Speaker 1: And a great mechanism to do that is connecting with 1426 01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:30,080 Speaker 1: nature and really being able to behold the functions of 1427 01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:32,840 Speaker 1: the world and behold God's beauty and God's grace, and 1428 01:15:33,320 --> 01:15:35,800 Speaker 1: it's so important to do breathwork. It's so important to 1429 01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:37,960 Speaker 1: plant your feet in soil, to plant your feet in 1430 01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:40,920 Speaker 1: the ground, to get restored, to experience sunshine on your 1431 01:15:41,000 --> 01:15:45,400 Speaker 1: skin and really hold space, to be mindful in those moments, 1432 01:15:45,439 --> 01:15:47,960 Speaker 1: and to experience all the little joys that come with it. 1433 01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:51,240 Speaker 1: You know, Devi is so important. You know, she's one 1434 01:15:51,280 --> 01:15:53,200 Speaker 1: of the most important people in my life. But the 1435 01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:55,120 Speaker 1: reason I feel you're so important to the coach it 1436 01:15:55,280 --> 01:15:57,840 Speaker 1: is because you are hip hop you know, I'm saying, 1437 01:15:57,920 --> 01:16:00,120 Speaker 1: watching you grow from Tupac the DPOC has been one 1438 01:16:00,160 --> 01:16:03,320 Speaker 1: of the greatest joys in my life. And I want 1439 01:16:03,320 --> 01:16:06,240 Speaker 1: to ask you, like, what what did Tupac do to 1440 01:16:06,360 --> 01:16:09,120 Speaker 1: open up your third eye? Uh? You know, the thing 1441 01:16:09,160 --> 01:16:11,800 Speaker 1: that I thought that I always connected to so deeply 1442 01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:16,360 Speaker 1: with Tupac was how multifaceted he was and how awake 1443 01:16:16,479 --> 01:16:18,479 Speaker 1: he was at such a young age. You know, we 1444 01:16:18,640 --> 01:16:21,479 Speaker 1: forget and obviously are there problematic lyrics. Was there some 1445 01:16:21,600 --> 01:16:25,000 Speaker 1: problematic behavior, one hundred percent, But most of what we 1446 01:16:25,080 --> 01:16:27,600 Speaker 1: saw of Pak was him twenty four and under and 1447 01:16:27,720 --> 01:16:30,679 Speaker 1: the fact that he was able to showcase the array 1448 01:16:30,800 --> 01:16:34,560 Speaker 1: of human emotions and human experiences I always connected to. 1449 01:16:34,840 --> 01:16:37,639 Speaker 1: You know, I've always, always, since I was a little girl, 1450 01:16:37,760 --> 01:16:41,760 Speaker 1: been fascinated by transformation. You know, Pac said it so well, 1451 01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:45,000 Speaker 1: he he and figures, these really archetypal figures like him, 1452 01:16:45,080 --> 01:16:48,120 Speaker 1: like Oprah. You know, they sparked the They spark that 1453 01:16:48,479 --> 01:16:50,559 Speaker 1: thing in your brain that lets you know you can 1454 01:16:50,680 --> 01:16:54,080 Speaker 1: have more, you can think more, you can be more. Yeah, 1455 01:16:54,120 --> 01:16:56,599 Speaker 1: and you know, for for us all I think, because 1456 01:16:56,640 --> 01:16:59,080 Speaker 1: we all know dev on our you know, on a 1457 01:16:59,560 --> 01:17:02,719 Speaker 1: different type of level for different purposes.

I 1463 01:17:20,760 --> 01:17:23,360 Speaker 1: want to talk about Crystal Bliss, because you know Crystal Bliss. 1464 01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:25,240 Speaker 1: I wanted what did it benefits of gyms and crystals? 1465 01:17:25,280 --> 01:17:27,759 Speaker 1: Dev sends me, Jim, she sends me crystals. I buried 1466 01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:30,400 Speaker 1: something that tree you saw me hugging. I buried something 1467 01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:32,160 Speaker 1: at the root of that What did it benefits of 1468 01:17:32,200 --> 01:17:35,880 Speaker 1: gyms and crystals? Yeah, crystals are such a beautiful accompaniment. 1469 01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:38,760 Speaker 1: And you know, I think there's so much education around 1470 01:17:38,800 --> 01:17:41,599 Speaker 1: mindfulness that has to happen for the bipop community because 1471 01:17:41,680 --> 01:17:44,320 Speaker 1: it's so much of it is misunderstood or people were 1472 01:17:44,360 --> 01:17:48,320 Speaker 1: giving given false narratives through different systems of belief of 1473 01:17:49,160 --> 01:17:51,920 Speaker 1: what to stay away from. But people don't really even know, 1474 01:17:52,439 --> 01:17:54,000 Speaker 1: you know, what these things are or what they do. 1475 01:17:54,200 --> 01:17:57,400 Speaker 1: And I think crystals are such a beautiful accompaniment to 1476 01:17:57,560 --> 01:18:00,599 Speaker 1: whatever work that you're doing. They harness so much beautiful 1477 01:18:00,680 --> 01:18:04,839 Speaker 1: energetic power. And it's believed that you know, crystals, different crystals. 1478 01:18:04,880 --> 01:18:08,479 Speaker 1: There's hundreds, you know, sometimes into the thousands, even though 1479 01:18:08,680 --> 01:18:12,000 Speaker 1: those aren't readily available, but there's so many to choose from, 1480 01:18:12,120 --> 01:18:14,680 Speaker 1: and they all emanate energy. You get upset when you 1481 01:18:14,720 --> 01:18:17,880 Speaker 1: see people who seem to be like, you know, using 1482 01:18:18,040 --> 01:18:22,880 Speaker 1: it's like performative wellness. You know, they're selling crystals there, 1483 01:18:23,280 --> 01:18:26,479 Speaker 1: they're practicing, they're teaching mindfulness and like, but they really 1484 01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:29,320 Speaker 1: haven't done the work. Yeah, I think, you know, I 1485 01:18:29,400 --> 01:18:31,160 Speaker 1: wanted to say, I get upset about it. I think 1486 01:18:31,200 --> 01:18:34,920 Speaker 1: it's dangerous for the people that are perhaps spending money 1487 01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:37,559 Speaker 1: or buying into things with someone who just isn't ready 1488 01:18:37,640 --> 01:18:40,479 Speaker 1: to teach yet. I think we all possess the ability 1489 01:18:40,560 --> 01:18:43,000 Speaker 1: to be teachers and guides for other people based on 1490 01:18:43,080 --> 01:18:45,360 Speaker 1: the work that we do. But this is the era 1491 01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:47,880 Speaker 1: of the expert, right, Like, this is the era where 1492 01:18:47,960 --> 01:18:51,640 Speaker 1: everybody is marketing themselves and selling themselves, and so I 1493 01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:54,040 Speaker 1: just think it's important that if you do feel called 1494 01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:56,439 Speaker 1: to be in this field, you do the work. When 1495 01:18:56,520 --> 01:18:59,400 Speaker 1: you do this trauma work, it's so sacred. You don't 1496 01:18:59,439 --> 01:19:02,800 Speaker 1: want to open people up to this raw space and 1497 01:19:02,960 --> 01:19:05,400 Speaker 1: then not have the tools to help them navigate through it. 1498 01:19:05,960 --> 01:19:09,360 Speaker 1: Debi Dad Dropping Gym's podcast will be out today everywhere 1499 01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:12,440 Speaker 1: that you listen to podcast via the Black Effect. iHeartRadio 1500 01:19:12,520 --> 01:19:14,439 Speaker 1: podcast network.
