Speaker 4: Now, Yes, donkey today for Monday, March twenty fifth, goes

12
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 4: the tail Of Preparatory High School in Detroit. Slu to

13
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,640
Speaker 4: everyone who listens to us on w j LB in Detroit,

14
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 4: drop one the clothes.

15
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 2: Bombs for the day. Detroit.

16
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 4: We have a small problem this morning. See there's a

17
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 4: history teacher named Dominique Brown. And if you ask me,

18
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 4: there is an injustice that happened to Dominique because Dominique

19
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,560
Speaker 4: Brown was let go from her job at Tailor Preparatory

20
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 4: High School. Yes, let go, fire, terminated, discharged, all because

21
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 4: they didn't like her side hustle, all because teachers are

22
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 4: so underpaid in this country that a lot of them

23
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 4: have to try to find other sources of incomes.

24
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 2: Are other careers. Okay, trust me.

25
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 4: My mother was an English teacher in South Carolina, and

26
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 4: I've said on this radio public school teachers are disgustingly underpaid,

27
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,680
Speaker 4: all right, The humans that we entrust with our most

28
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 4: prized possessions, our children, are barely getting by. There was

29
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 4: a survey done by Anya dot org that found teachers

30
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 4: work more hours per week than other working adults.

31
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 2: Yes, an estimated fifty three.

32
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 4: Hours per week, seven more hours than the average working adult.

33
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 4: And teachers, no surprise here, report much less satisfaction with

34
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,199
Speaker 4: their base pay than other working adults, and twenty five

35
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,119
Speaker 4: percent of their work is uncompensated.

36
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 2: Did you hear what I just said?

37
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 4: Twenty five percent of all the work teachers do is uncompensated,

38
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 4: and sixty six percent say their base salary is inadequate,

39
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 4: compared with thirty nine percent of working adults. Okay, it's terrible,

40
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 4: horrible for what teachers mean to us in our communities.

41
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 4: It's actually kind of criminals. So when you have teachers

42
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 4: like Dominique who clearly love what they do because they're

43
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 4: really you know, there really is no reason to be

44
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 4: a teacher other than love, because you know you're gonna

45
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 4: be overworked and underpaid to If Dominique wants to have

46
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 4: a side hustle, God bless her. I know what you're thinking, Uncleshalla.

47
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 4: What you're saying sounds good. But before I agree, what

48
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 4: is her side hustle? Well, let's go to WTAE Detroit

49
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 4: for the report.

50
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 2: Police.

51
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: Dominique Brump, whose rap name is Dripping Honey, has been

52
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: an educator for seven years and started teaching history at

53
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: Taylor Preparatory High School in August, but all that came

54
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 1: to an abrupt end months later after she says a

55
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: parent came across one of her rap videos.

56
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 5: The first meeting that I had was like the principal

57
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 5: dund and they had told me that the parent wished

58
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,519
Speaker 5: to stay anonymous, and she felt as if she didn't

59
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,679
Speaker 5: like my rap career and that I was a bad

60
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 5: influence on the kids because I rap.

61
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 1: She said she was fired in February because she's a rapper.

62
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: Before the firing, around Thanksgiving, she says, there were meetings

63
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 1: and an ultimatum.

64
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 5: My mind, in my heart was telling me two things.

65
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,920
Speaker 5: I'm just I couldn't see myself like giving up my

66
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 5: other passion just because somebody didn't like it. They said,

67
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 5: erase all your content. That was all and maybe erast

68
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 5: all your content. I'm just like, respectfully, I can't do that.

69
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: Brown acknowledges the profanity in her lyrics, but she says

70
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: that has nothing to do with Taylor Prepp and the

71
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: positive impact she's had on her students and the community.

72
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 1: In February, on her last day, she created a music

73
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 1: video with her students that has since gone viral. Christina

74
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: Lenz says her son in eleventh grader started a petition

75
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 1: in supportive miss Brown, gathering over two hundred student signatures.

76
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 2: Dropping the Clues Box with Dominique brownieka Dripping.

77
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 4: Honey, Dripping Honey fired because of an anonymous hating as

78
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 4: parent complaining saying she's a bad influence on her students

79
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 4: because she's a rapper.

80
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 2: How you feel like that?

81
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 4: In Detroit, home with some of the most influential people

82
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 4: ever to pick up a microphone, there is nothing but

83
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 4: a bunch of rapidy, rap ass Negroes and Caucasians in Detroit. Okay,

84
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 4: people in Detroit started rapping soon as they come out

85
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 4: the womb, soon as they get smacked on the ass

86
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 4: by the doctor. They don't cry. They start spitting, Boss,

87
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,000

Speaker 2: Oh he tries Big Sean. Oh.

Speaker 4: They got this one guy who's considered by many one

92
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 4: of the greatest of all time. He's not on my

93
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 4: personal list, but objectively speaking, you can't deny his place

94
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 4: in hip hop culture. Marshall matters is that name ring

95
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 4: a bell? What I'm telling you is rapping in Detroit

96
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 4: is like breathing, okay, and being from Detroit. There's a

97
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 4: lot of other side hustles she could be doing that

98
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 4: could be considered a bad influence, but rapp ain't one

99
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 4: of them.

100
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 2: Yo.

101
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 4: Now she got a record, okay. You heard them talk

102
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 4: about it in the news report.

103
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,279
Speaker 2: I saw. I watched it on YouTube.

104
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 4: It's called Dripping One on One And in the video

105
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 4: she has some.

106
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 2: Of her students, you know actually in the video.

107
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,040
Speaker 4: In the description of the video, it says, Dripping one

108
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 4: on one featuring the best students in the world.

109
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 2: All I hear is a positive anthem.

110
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 4: Okay, a positive anthem okay, encouraging young ladies not to

111
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 4: be ho east. Okay, I don't know how old Dominique

112
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 4: Brown is, but she doesn't look old. And this is

113
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 4: the first time, probably ever in the history of life,

114
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 4: that the age demographics between adults and kids is really

115
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 4: non existent. And what I mean by that is the

116
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 4: stuff we was raised on in the nineteen hundreds and

117
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 4: early two thousands really ain't no different from you know

118
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,840
Speaker 4: what these kids is on now. It's the same type

119
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 4: of content. Okay, argue amongst yourselves. We try to act

120
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 4: like our generation was so much better. They might have

121
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 4: been talent wise, but the content is the same.

122
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 2: Okay. How is the generation to raise off?

123
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 4: Nwa Uncle Luke lil Kim three six, Mathia and Eminem.

124
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 4: Gonna judge anybody, Okay, as long as that woman is

125
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 4: doing what she's supposed to be doing in that classroom

126
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 4: and her kids are learning and passing. If she wants

127
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 4: to rap in her spare time, let up. And I

128
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 4: bet you all of those kids trust her more than

129
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 4: they trust any other teacher in the school because she

130
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 4: speaks their language.

131
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 2: Okay, how about this?

132
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 4: Instead of stopping teachers side hustles, how about improving pay

133
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 4: because a lot of teachers are getting out of the

134
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 4: teaching business, and a lot of teachers aren't looking to

135
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 4: a lot of people aren't even looking to get into

136
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,280
Speaker 4: the teaching business. So if you want to recruit and

137
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 4: retain educators, get their money up, but not only that,

138
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 4: improve the number of hours worked in their overall working conditions.

139
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 4: That's how you gonna keep teachers wanting to be teachers.

140
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 2: And then the mean time.

141
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 4: You shouldn't try to stop them from rapping to potentially

142
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 4: find the career to make its meat. You should be

143
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,679
Speaker 4: ashamed that they have to attempt to rap to find

144
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 4: a career that make ins meat because you not paying

145
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,119
Speaker 4: them enough as a teacher. Please give Preparatory High School
