I feel like 25 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 2: one thing that I've noticed, as far as like being 26 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,559 Speaker 2: on the ground in comparison to maybe like the Arab 27 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 2: community and different things like that, as I feel like 28 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 2: that they're more of a monolitht when it comes to 29 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 2: certain things. 30 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not true. It's just a matter of you 31 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: have to find so you know, like you're saying, getting 32 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 1: people excited and all of that. If anything is a monolith, 33 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: Black people are monolift because they vote ninety percent loyal 34 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: to the Democrat Party more than anybody. So no, they're 35 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: not a monolith at all. It's millions of people in Michigan. 36 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: They only had to find one hundred thousand that agreed 37 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 1: with what they wanted to push forward. What we do 38 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: is can you still hear me? 39 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 2: Exa? 40 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 1: What we do is we give up and so we'll 41 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: see people who ain't really organized as for real, they 42 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: don't understand that you may have to knock on thirty 43 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: doors to get one and after everybody all men, ain't 44 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 1: nobody win' on the same page. This was wrong with us? 45 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 1: Don't nobody want to work together, and they throw the 46 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: brochures and run off like somebody stole their bike. You 47 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 1: have to find And we talked about this in the 48 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 1: push the line of training. It's not about we, it's 49 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: about me. It's not about no monolith. It was only 50 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: let's look at the population in Michigan. Let me just 51 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: google this right quick one second. Don't let the negative 52 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: stereotypes that you hear and start believing that it is 53 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: ten million people in Michigan. Can you still hear me? Okay, 54 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: so everybody turned into your neighbor and say ten million, 55 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: they only got one hundred thousand. They didn't even get 56 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: a one percent didn't even get a million. It doesn't 57 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 1: take a lot. Many of you may not be believers 58 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: of the Christian faith, but in the Bible they talk 59 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: about not needing ten thousand people in the army. They 60 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: only needed three thousand, three hundred. They dumbed it down 61 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: and said, the rest of gott home long because we 62 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 1: don't need you, you a bunch of people to all 63 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: be on the same pay.

You have the money, 234 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: the resources. Because I watch y'all raise money overnight. I 235 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 1: watch y'all come from all over the country to go 236 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: to rallies, to go to my training. Y'all get up 237 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: and come all over the country.

That's it. 246 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: So all the time that you're spending getting people motivated 247 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: and excited about it, if you don't have a direct action, 248 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: people need an action, call like they need something to do. 249 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like we need you to 250 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: do this November fourth.

They they more than excited, passionate, and they 253 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: mean it. And they showing these people they mean business, 254 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 1: willing to go through a wall, they mean it. They're 255 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: not just excited about it. They're making their voice heard 256 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: literally on the ballot. Let me say it again for 257 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: those who just join it. I'm not talking about behind 258 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: a candidate. I'm talking about a ballot initiative every state, 259 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,719 Speaker 1: or not every state, but look into which one of 260 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 1: these seven states that you can get on the ballot, 261 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: or even even if y'all got let me make it 262 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: even easier for you for the states that have the 263 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 1: blank the right end organize a write in campaign. Raheem, 264 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: y'all should be saying, we need y'all to write in reparations. 265 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,319 Speaker 1: But guess what, rahim it can't just be random, right 266 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 1: ends everywhere. The numbers ain't gonna add up. You gotta 267 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: pick a state you want to do it in. You 268 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: follow what I'm saying, Rain, You got to pick a state. 269 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: You can't just get into the space, say everybody go 270 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 1: right in because it's not gonna be enough numbers.

Let 276 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: them know you mean business. Organizing is about consolidating and 277 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 1: concentrating in one area. It's not about all over the place. 278 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: That's not how organizing works. It's not about y'all know 279 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: I'll be telling candids all the time.

You're wasting your time. You 284 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: have to concentrate. That's how it actually works in a 285 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: system called voter action network. They only talk to the 286 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: super voters. They're not even talking about you, even thinking 287 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: about you, so you're not threatening them at all. They 288 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: got a list of who to go talk to and 289 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: they only talk to them, and they concentrate with them, 290 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: and they talk to them two times, three times, four times, 291 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: and they get them to the polls. That's it. They 292 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: ain't even thinking about you. They wasn't even helping you 293 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: in You weren't even a part of it.
