But you know, things, things 0:10:48.640 --> 0:10:51.760 have changed a bit of always do a network things. 0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:52.080 I was just. 0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:55.800 Oh, I didn't sign in DA. 0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:58.599 They had to make room for what episodes of Rebel. 0:11:02.400 --> 0:11:08.559 Misunion did not signd noting for Cosby. So wait says 0:11:08.600 --> 0:11:11.079 you didn't. Was there a problem with this storyline? Was 0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:13.320 that the real issue? Because it's like so many issues. 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:16.040 Rumors about why there was the whole suing. 0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:18.400 Would be you can't sue for a storyline. 0:11:18.640 --> 0:11:20.360 It was like a lot of different things like, well, 0:11:20.440 --> 0:11:22.800 she wants more control, she wants more controlled of creative. 0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:25.320 How much more control can you have than being executive producer? 0:11:25.440 --> 0:11:25.880 Rumors. 0:11:26.720 --> 0:11:28.640 I don't read blogs, so I don't know neither. I 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:32.040 only know like headlines what I see for no and 0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:34.040 I thought it was super clear. Whyse dude, I don't 0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:37.559 know how it could have been misinterpreted. No, we made 0:11:37.559 --> 0:11:40.240 it a financial agreement. And a lot of what a 0:11:40.280 --> 0:11:43.079 lot of networks will do is they will try to 0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:46.400 combine seasons. So if you make it, say you get 0:11:47.240 --> 0:11:50.960 a raise from seasons three to four and four to five. 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:53.880 The way a lot of networks will save money is 0:11:54.000 --> 0:11:58.480 by combining have a super size six. Yeah, so when 0:11:58.520 --> 0:12:01.440 they do that, everybody loses money. Well that the cast, 0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:04.920 the crew, everyone loses money that way. So until someone 0:12:05.040 --> 0:12:07.880 takes a stand like I did legally and say, no, 0:12:08.080 --> 0:12:10.160 we had a you know, we had a legal agreement 0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:13.400 each episode each season was going to be no more 0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:17.400 than thirteen, no less than eight, and you can't do that. 0:12:17.600 --> 0:12:20.240 You have to pay me as individual seasons, including my races. 0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:22.599 So I just sued them to get them to do 0:12:22.720 --> 0:12:25.000 what they said, what they agreed to. 0:12:25.280 --> 0:12:27.480 But that was it. Everything else, and that was that. 0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:29.120 What happened with the show, because I mean, the ratings 0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:31.400 were good from what I understood, I mean, is that 0:12:31.679 --> 0:12:33.240 actually why they stopped the show? 0:12:34.440 --> 0:12:36.800 Well, you know, corporate is corporate. They wanted a certain 0:12:36.840 --> 0:12:40.880 amount of it. Did become an expensive show. I mean 0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:44.480 for for b ET and I guess they wanted more 0:12:44.559 --> 0:12:45.200 of a return. 0:12:45.520 --> 0:12:45.920 I guess. 0:12:46.640 --> 0:12:48.640 Uh so that was that was that. 0:12:49.480 --> 0:12:53.040 But these same people that you negotiated with coming in, 0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:55.199 are they the same people. 0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:59.080 That No, No, there's been some regimes since yeah, since we. 0:12:59.160 --> 0:13:02.840 First show like that as well to a regime. Yeah. 0:13:03.320 --> 0:13:06.760 So so yeah, there's some people who made promises and 0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:09.319 then by the time those promises were it's time to 0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:12.000 pay the piper, it was like, oh no, bitch. 0:13:11.880 --> 0:13:17.240 No, So this twenty episode season four, come on now? 0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:19.360 So how does that work with your relationship with because 0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:22.520 you were the BET Honors person as well, like you were, 0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:25.000 so how does that work? Like you do keep it separate? 0:13:25.040 --> 0:13:26.439 I can't remember if you stopped after that? 0:13:26.559 --> 0:13:28.920 It all stopped just because I'm not a host, So 0:13:28.960 --> 0:13:31.480 I'm like, I'm an actor, So you know, why am 0:13:31.520 --> 0:13:34.079 I taking a job from somebody who wants to be 0:13:34.080 --> 0:13:35.080 a host or who. 0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:35.839 Needs another job. 0:13:35.880 --> 0:13:38.160 I don't need all the checks, I mean, as per 0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:41.000 the prenup, I don't, so I just kind of thought 0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:43.240 it was time for somebody else to have a shot 0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:45.800 at it. It was a great and a great paying gig. 0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:50.920 And yeah, like it's let somebody else have a shot. Yeah, 0:13:50.920 --> 0:13:52.800 I mean, but we would have continued on. Everyone in 0:13:52.840 --> 0:13:55.880 the cast wanted to come back. Everyone loved the show, 0:13:56.000 --> 0:13:57.960 We loved the show runner, we loved being in Atlanta. 0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:01.000 It was not a tough show to do. We would 0:14:01.040 --> 0:14:03.880 shoot two episodes at a time, so it was tough 0:14:03.960 --> 0:14:07.000 to shoot. But we like the people, we like the storyline. 0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:09.520 So yeah, no, I definitely didn't have any problem with 0:14:09.600 --> 0:14:11.800 the story. You know the storyline that and I had 0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:14.240 a ton of power, so and I was paid very well. 0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:17.160 I can't can complain about that, but I do complain 0:14:17.240 --> 0:14:17.640 with my money. 0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:18.160 Gets funny. 0:14:19.400 --> 0:14:21.080 I don't mess with anybody else's money, and I don't 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:22.400 expect anybody else to fuck with mine. 0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:27.440 So that's why I own my own network. We can 0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:30.720 rebooth me and Mary Jane on the Sugar Network having 0:14:30.720 --> 0:14:32.200 an Instagram, so on Instagram live. 0:14:32.280 --> 0:14:35.840 Okay, So if you I don't know what the arrangement is, 0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:40.920 but is it possible that you can just put it 0:14:41.040 --> 0:14:42.880 on ice for a little Yeah, put it on ice 0:14:42.920 --> 0:14:44.160 for a little bit and then go well, I mean 0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:44.680 it's been. 0:14:44.760 --> 0:14:47.040 It's been what almost a year and a half. No, 0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:50.360 maybe a year since we last aired our last episode, 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:53.560 and it's going to be another They're not going to 0:14:53.560 --> 0:14:56.560 even air the movie until twenty nineteen, and we've been 0:14:56.600 --> 0:15:00.760 done with the movie since February. It's just it's that's 0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:02.400 a long time for an audience to wait and try 0:15:02.440 --> 0:15:05.200 to stick with it. And then everyone else had got jobs, 0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:08.080 and that was the other thing, Like when you when you, yeah, 0:15:08.120 --> 0:15:10.960 when you commit to pick up a show, that means 0:15:11.000 --> 0:15:13.160 you can't the other the cast can't do other things. 0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:17.240 But they're also not actually getting paid to be on 0:15:17.440 --> 0:15:19.240 hold and not be able to do other things. So 0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:21.600 I'm again, I don't mess with anybody's money, and if 0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:23.120 we're not going to come back in a timely fashion, 0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:25.480 then I'm not also not going to hold you hostage 0:15:25.880 --> 0:15:27.080 for a Maybe that's not fair. 0:15:27.240 --> 0:15:29.520 Speaking of that.

I don't know. 1:18:09.760 --> 1:18:11.040 Yeah, I just feel like this is a side of 1:18:11.080 --> 1:18:12.880 you that people don't get to see because. 1:18:12.680 --> 1:18:16.400 Like you if you follow me or you are like 1:18:16.880 --> 1:18:18.640 even marginally around. 1:18:19.920 --> 1:18:23.400 Right now, like I usually have a cocktail or scientist. 1:18:24.479 --> 1:18:28.960 Dupre Yeah, okay, look, you getting pulled over. 1:18:29.160 --> 1:18:33.439 I don't want to slightly open a door, and we 1:18:33.520 --> 1:18:36.920 have a limited time left, so you know, I do 1:18:37.160 --> 1:18:43.400 want to talk about, uh, what's happening now. I was like, well, 1:18:43.760 --> 1:18:45.680 as far as no, no, no, I mean, because I 1:18:45.800 --> 1:18:49.560 know that you're you're for a while, there was a 1:18:49.800 --> 1:18:52.760 sisterhood gathering of the me too. 1:18:53.479 --> 1:18:53.639 Oh. 1:18:54.120 --> 1:18:57.320 I was like, wait what, I don't know what you're 1:18:57.360 --> 1:18:58.599 talking about our group chat. 1:19:00.040 --> 1:19:03.120 In the group chat, sir, No, okay, I didn't go there, 1:19:03.160 --> 1:19:09.599 but I just mean, like, yes, where at the time 1:19:09.720 --> 1:19:13.000 when you guys were you know, where it was deep 1:19:13.040 --> 1:19:16.639 into Harvey's situation and whatnot. There was like okay, let's 1:19:16.680 --> 1:19:20.439 take action rosters. And now it's like four or five 1:19:20.520 --> 1:19:27.240 months later, has anything significant come you know, from the 1:19:27.320 --> 1:19:27.960 gathering or is. 1:19:27.960 --> 1:19:32.000 It just like I think, because it made the conversation 1:19:32.200 --> 1:19:35.920 so much wider, you know what I mean. I've been 1:19:36.000 --> 1:19:38.880 doing this work for shit. I've been out about being 1:19:38.920 --> 1:19:42.200 a sexual assault survivor for almost twenty five years, you know. 1:19:42.680 --> 1:19:45.080 To Ronna Burke, she's been you know, in the movement 1:19:45.120 --> 1:19:49.560 ground you know, ground floor for fifteen twenty years. So 1:19:49.680 --> 1:19:51.439 for those of us who've been doing the work, it's 1:19:51.520 --> 1:19:54.800 not a new conversation, but trying to reach as many 1:19:54.920 --> 1:19:59.120 people as as we as needed to be reached, who 1:19:59.200 --> 1:20:05.000 needed help, healing and justice. We just weren't reaching as 1:20:05.120 --> 1:20:08.800 all the people that needed us. So with the Times 1:20:08.840 --> 1:20:14.200 of Movement and Me Too movement, the conversation is worldwide. 1:20:14.680 --> 1:20:20.639 So people are are feeling strengthened and heard and seen 1:20:21.640 --> 1:20:24.200 to be able to share their their truth and. 1:20:25.280 --> 1:20:25.640 Some of that. 1:20:25.920 --> 1:20:28.360 Sometimes that leads to justice. Sometimes that leads to a 1:20:28.439 --> 1:20:33.040 safer work environment. Sometimes it leads to having conversations where 1:20:33.080 --> 1:20:35.479 people know it's like, please don't pull your dick out, 1:20:35.840 --> 1:20:39.120 like not appropriate, not appropriate in the office, Like I 1:20:39.200 --> 1:20:41.240 don't want to be making copies with your dick next 1:20:41.320 --> 1:20:44.760 to me, Like stop it. So it's starting to help 1:20:44.840 --> 1:20:50.200 people police themselves in work environments of what is reasonable 1:20:50.240 --> 1:20:54.360 and what is unreasonable because so much of so much 1:20:54.479 --> 1:20:58.400 unreasonable behavior was not even spoken about. You just took it, 1:20:58.479 --> 1:21:01.080 especially if you were in a subordinate position, and so 1:21:01.160 --> 1:21:04.840 everyone thought that that shit was normal, and it's not normal. 1:21:04.920 --> 1:21:06.000 It's never it never has been. 1:21:06.080 --> 1:21:08.280 So now that the conversation is more out there and 1:21:08.320 --> 1:21:12.200 people know that there are consequences to the bullshit, it's 1:21:12.240 --> 1:21:16.840 starting to help people behave a bit better and people 1:21:17.000 --> 1:21:18.480 know that there are consequences. 1:21:19.720 --> 1:21:23.519 Do you feel a personal like uh difference in it 1:21:23.720 --> 1:21:26.560 or is it just people saying Okay, I'm sorry, I 1:21:26.680 --> 1:21:28.960 mean that. Don't you know, like are they slow to 1:21:29.120 --> 1:21:30.240 joke around you or anything. 1:21:30.320 --> 1:21:33.479 I think there's slow to joke period, like inappropriate jokes, 1:21:33.560 --> 1:21:35.760 like even in Hollywood, where I mean we make a 1:21:35.840 --> 1:21:38.599 living off of, you know, inappropriate things and being able 1:21:38.680 --> 1:21:39.360 to be free sort of. 1:21:39.920 --> 1:21:44.599 But there's a there's a there's a line between being 1:21:44.800 --> 1:21:46.160 funny and being racist. 1:21:46.439 --> 1:21:50.560 There's a line between being funny and subjecting your coworkers 1:21:50.640 --> 1:21:54.080 to your fucking dick. There's a line between like offering 1:21:54.160 --> 1:21:59.200 opportunity and offering opportunity coupled with your dick, Like there's 1:21:59.200 --> 1:22:02.760 a fucking difference and like this gray area that people 1:22:02.920 --> 1:22:05.479 keep like, but what about it? It's like, no, motherfucker, 1:22:05.520 --> 1:22:08.240 you know, this isn't like rocket science. You've just known 1:22:08.320 --> 1:22:10.760 that so many other people have gotten away with it, 1:22:11.920 --> 1:22:14.360 and now we're just not letting everyone get away with it. 1:22:14.840 --> 1:22:17.000 And there's still so much more work to be done. 1:22:17.080 --> 1:22:19.680 And there's because there's so much anytime someone comes out, 1:22:20.080 --> 1:22:23.960 this idea that victims become fucking famous for telling their 1:22:24.080 --> 1:22:26.800 truth is bullshit And nobody wants to be famous for 1:22:26.880 --> 1:22:29.160 this shit. You want the shit to stop. You want 1:22:29.200 --> 1:22:30.559 to be able to go to work, do your shit, 1:22:30.680 --> 1:22:33.000 create cool shit, and go the fuck home, you know 1:22:33.040 --> 1:22:36.120 what I mean, Like you don't want to be followed 1:22:36.479 --> 1:22:38.799 or harassed or subjective to bullshit. 1:22:39.040 --> 1:22:40.639 You want to do your shit and get the fuck home. 1:22:41.920 --> 1:22:44.240 And I think now people are a little bit more 1:22:44.800 --> 1:22:48.640 conscientious of the shit that's probably actually in their you know, 1:22:48.960 --> 1:22:52.040 rule books. You know they know where the HR department 1:22:52.160 --> 1:22:53.280 is if they didn't before. 1:22:53.520 --> 1:22:56.280 How do you think the asia R Gentle situation is 1:22:56.520 --> 1:22:58.519 affecting it or what effect do you think you will 1:22:58.600 --> 1:22:59.360 have on the movement. 1:23:00.000 --> 1:23:00.840 I think it's it's. 1:23:02.600 --> 1:23:07.040 It's it's unfortunate that she took a leadership position knowing 1:23:07.120 --> 1:23:11.479 she had she had hurt a child. So in that sense, 1:23:11.920 --> 1:23:14.800 she's hurting her herself and she hurt because she hurt 1:23:15.400 --> 1:23:17.320 a child, and she's paying a consequence. 1:23:17.960 --> 1:23:23.080 For the record, she's categorically denying that that happened. 1:23:23.320 --> 1:23:24.360 The video, the. 1:23:24.360 --> 1:23:35.680 Picture she at she admitted that ship and you know, n. 1:23:35.680 --> 1:23:37.040 So down did we have to do like I mean, 1:23:37.120 --> 1:23:39.840 not we but amongst the women in the leadership, does 1:23:39.880 --> 1:23:41.679 that have to be a conversation of all right girl, 1:23:41.840 --> 1:23:44.519 so y'all good? Right. The thing is, it's a leadership. 1:23:44.560 --> 1:23:47.720 It's a leaderless movement, except there are people who are 1:23:48.080 --> 1:23:51.839 sort of elective elected by If you're doing an interview, 1:23:53.080 --> 1:23:55.599 you know, for your movie or whatever, and somebody asked 1:23:55.600 --> 1:23:57.960 you a question about you know, me too and times 1:23:58.040 --> 1:24:01.040 up then and I and I answer it, they'll be 1:24:01.080 --> 1:24:03.439 like Gabrielle Union leader of you know, I'm like, no, 1:24:03.680 --> 1:24:07.320 I'm answering question. But because you know, she was, she 1:24:07.520 --> 1:24:09.960 was sort of putting herself in a position of leadership 1:24:10.000 --> 1:24:10.360 because like. 1:24:10.400 --> 1:24:12.320 Rose McGowan is a face that you might say, okay, 1:24:12.360 --> 1:24:14.040 I know it's not a leadership. But she is definitely 1:24:14.080 --> 1:24:14.439 a face. 1:24:14.560 --> 1:24:17.240 She's she's she's very much in the forefront. 1:24:18.840 --> 1:24:21.840 So yeah, so you would think if you are going 1:24:21.880 --> 1:24:25.120 to be in the forefront, that you shouldn't make payments 1:24:25.160 --> 1:24:28.280 to you know, to a you know, damn it sung 1:24:28.320 --> 1:24:31.439 around with a kid. But no, I mean, and and 1:24:31.560 --> 1:24:34.720 also that hurt people hurt people, you know, not all 1:24:34.960 --> 1:24:38.400 not obviously not all hurt people hurt people, but you know, 1:24:38.600 --> 1:24:42.720 unfortunately sometimes you know, people who have been abused go 1:24:42.840 --> 1:24:45.519 on to abuse other people, and at some point we 1:24:45.680 --> 1:24:48.880 have to be accountable for our behavior and face consequences. 1:24:49.200 --> 1:24:51.240 Do you really think now that we now we're talking 1:24:51.280 --> 1:24:54.040 about the resurgence of Louis k and whatnot, and when 1:24:54.080 --> 1:24:55.960 it comes to Hollywood, because maybe on you know, in 1:24:56.439 --> 1:24:59.920 other industries, I feel like there may be more consequences, 1:25:00.080 --> 1:25:01.960 but in Hollywood it seems like, let's just give it 1:25:02.040 --> 1:25:06.240 six months, or let's give it a year, just lay back. Yeah, 1:25:06.320 --> 1:25:08.639 I mean, I mean maybe Kevin's I'm thinking. 1:25:10.320 --> 1:25:14.320 I think that's a wrap for him. Yeah, I mean, 1:25:14.360 --> 1:25:17.200 he got a standing ovation. So if you were, if 1:25:17.240 --> 1:25:18.280 you were one of the chicks that. 1:25:20.640 --> 1:25:22.439 Oh yeah, I heard it on his new his stand 1:25:22.520 --> 1:25:23.720 up or he did a set. 1:25:24.240 --> 1:25:26.639 So I mean, what I you know, just from social media, 1:25:26.840 --> 1:25:30.160 that's just what I've I've been when I'm not tweeting 1:25:30.200 --> 1:25:36.240 the boy from to all the boys I've loved before. Yeah, no, 1:25:36.320 --> 1:25:40.479 I I I saw that he went up after being 1:25:40.520 --> 1:25:43.000 gone with eight months and got it before he spoke 1:25:43.040 --> 1:25:46.880 a word, got a standing ovation. So just thinking from 1:25:46.960 --> 1:25:49.760 the space of one of the five women. Out of 1:25:49.880 --> 1:25:54.000 five women, he asked all five if he could masturbate 1:25:54.840 --> 1:25:59.479 in front of them. Three said no, two said yes 1:25:59.600 --> 1:26:03.479 or but there were women who said no, I'm cool 1:26:04.040 --> 1:26:07.479 no and still proceeded to do that. So if you're 1:26:07.479 --> 1:26:09.000 one of those women, and then when they went on 1:26:09.120 --> 1:26:11.519 to talk about him masturbating. 1:26:11.960 --> 1:26:13.200 He derailed their careers. 1:26:14.160 --> 1:26:16.160 So that's your career. 1:26:16.280 --> 1:26:21.280 That is a long consequence for speaking out about and 1:26:21.360 --> 1:26:23.360 not even speaking to the media. Is just speaking to 1:26:23.479 --> 1:26:28.200 other people like, Yo, this motherfucker like whacked off while 1:26:28.240 --> 1:26:32.000 I was sitting there. You know what I mean, what 1:26:32.200 --> 1:26:36.160 message does that send if you're them, Well, we're not living. 1:26:35.960 --> 1:26:37.680 In a world that cares about them right now, right 1:26:37.760 --> 1:26:39.559 Like doesn't you think you have all about Well. 1:26:39.600 --> 1:26:42.479 Yeah, but that was just a big fuck you to me. 1:26:42.800 --> 1:26:44.479 I mean, like just the way, and I think a 1:26:44.479 --> 1:26:46.120 lot of people sort of felt that way. And then 1:26:46.360 --> 1:26:48.200 you know, I'm scrolling through the comments, it was like, well, 1:26:48.240 --> 1:26:49.439 how long or what was his name? 1:26:49.520 --> 1:26:50.000 What's his name? 1:26:50.360 --> 1:26:53.560 Michael Ian Black? He kind of came stepped up and 1:26:53.640 --> 1:26:55.840 came to Lewis e K's defense. It was like, well, 1:26:56.840 --> 1:26:59.040 on the other side of this METO movement, with these 1:26:59.120 --> 1:27:00.800 men who have been you know, sort of out it 1:27:00.880 --> 1:27:04.280 as you know, exhibiting shitty behavior, how do we get 1:27:04.360 --> 1:27:06.799 how do how do they get on the road to redemption? 1:27:06.920 --> 1:27:09.200 And how long should they? And you know, and the 1:27:09.280 --> 1:27:12.599 response categorically was I don't fucking know, I don't fucking care, 1:27:12.760 --> 1:27:15.040 Like it's not long enough. And maybe a standing ovation 1:27:15.120 --> 1:27:19.920 before he said a word, much less publicly from the stage, 1:27:20.439 --> 1:27:24.600 you know, addressed it again or taking public steps to 1:27:24.760 --> 1:27:27.519 whatever it is. But I think a lot of people 1:27:27.560 --> 1:27:28.879 feel very strongly about. 1:27:28.800 --> 1:27:31.000 Also say I'm sorry. 1:27:32.360 --> 1:27:37.439 I'll say that the audience at the Comedy Seller is 1:27:38.280 --> 1:27:43.680 beyond Bridge and Tunnel like usually it's it's like a 1:27:43.760 --> 1:27:46.360 touristy spot, a lot of people from out the country 1:27:47.479 --> 1:27:49.479 and that sort of thing. So I almost think that 1:27:49.520 --> 1:27:55.280 their borderline like not connected I'm not even trying to 1:27:55.360 --> 1:27:56.600 man explain or quest plain it. 1:27:56.800 --> 1:27:58.599 No you're not. No, you're not explaining anything. I get 1:27:58.600 --> 1:28:00.599 what you're saying, but it just doesn't make any sense 1:28:00.640 --> 1:28:02.360 because they went to see him. 1:28:02.880 --> 1:28:07.240 Well, yeah, like you go. 1:28:07.600 --> 1:28:11.120 You go to the Comedy Cellar, hoping is a place 1:28:11.160 --> 1:28:14.720 where the big names go to practice a set to 1:28:14.800 --> 1:28:17.240 see if this material works in that so any night 1:28:17.280 --> 1:28:19.480 could be Chris Rock, Jerry Seinfeld. 1:28:19.840 --> 1:28:20.200 So I went. 1:28:20.720 --> 1:28:22.920 Chris called when he was putting his act together, the 1:28:23.080 --> 1:28:26.360 last act together, and he's like, Yo, come come see 1:28:26.560 --> 1:28:28.240 you know, I'm going to go up to at the 1:28:28.439 --> 1:28:30.840 at the Comedy Cellar and I'd never been. I had 1:28:30.880 --> 1:28:33.479 no idea where it was, and it's so dark in there. 1:28:33.960 --> 1:28:35.760 I was sitting in the back. I couldn't tell you 1:28:35.880 --> 1:28:37.800 what the crowd looked like because all I could see 1:28:37.880 --> 1:28:40.080 is him on the stage and then you know, the 1:28:40.160 --> 1:28:42.439 crowd is pretty dark from where I was sitting, So 1:28:42.479 --> 1:28:45.759 I couldn't even tell you the type of phograph. 1:28:46.520 --> 1:28:47.360 I would have no idea. 1:28:48.760 --> 1:28:55.080 But usually it's it's you know, Germans visiting New York 1:28:55.160 --> 1:28:57.559 for the summer, like that's sort of thing. 1:28:57.800 --> 1:28:59.240 Oh wow, Yeah, So it. 1:28:59.320 --> 1:29:01.000 Wasn't like, I'm curious, what are you guys. 1:29:01.080 --> 1:29:04.360 It's like, you know, two women and four guys, Like, 1:29:04.720 --> 1:29:07.280 what do you guys think of the Me Too? 1:29:07.360 --> 1:29:07.639 Movement? 1:29:08.760 --> 1:29:14.920 I think it's right, well not right on time, it's overdue. Yeah, 1:29:15.120 --> 1:29:17.880 I mean, this shit's wrong and something needs to be 1:29:17.960 --> 1:29:20.120 done about it. So let's do something about it. 1:29:21.000 --> 1:29:21.200 Yeah. 1:29:22.000 --> 1:29:27.000 Well no, no, at least the conversations I've had with you, 1:29:29.960 --> 1:29:33.160 I know that we've spoken at length about you know, 1:29:34.840 --> 1:29:38.840 are do the women in the movement understand that women 1:29:38.920 --> 1:29:43.720 of color having going through this way longer and harsher. 1:29:43.600 --> 1:29:49.680 With everything, with the page gap and and you know, 1:29:49.800 --> 1:29:50.840 everything that comes with it. 1:29:51.320 --> 1:29:53.320 And so I almost feel as though if for to 1:29:53.400 --> 1:29:55.519 truly be a movement, there has to be a universal 1:29:55.640 --> 1:29:59.160 understanding of all the components involved. 1:30:00.240 --> 1:30:04.560 You know, yeah, some do, some don't, you know, some 1:30:04.920 --> 1:30:08.040 some you know, like when you think of Hollywood, you 1:30:08.200 --> 1:30:10.840 have to look at it as like any community. So 1:30:10.920 --> 1:30:13.479 there's there's the very very wealthy who live in the 1:30:13.920 --> 1:30:16.200 big game engines, and then there's the people who live 1:30:16.280 --> 1:30:19.680 in in you know, government subsidized housing. You know, like 1:30:19.840 --> 1:30:23.400 regular working actors who will never be famous. They just 1:30:23.640 --> 1:30:26.800 love what they do, and you know, generally have second 1:30:26.840 --> 1:30:29.479 and third jobs. But all of these people are part 1:30:29.520 --> 1:30:33.360 of part of the movement. The people in the gay 1:30:33.400 --> 1:30:37.519 communities are not going to be relating to the struggle 1:30:37.560 --> 1:30:41.800 of a working actor and the basic things that working 1:30:41.840 --> 1:30:45.880 actors are fighting for, like like insurance and health care 1:30:46.120 --> 1:30:48.040 and you know, basic rights. 1:30:48.400 --> 1:30:52.280 So it's not that they're uneducated per se, it's more 1:30:52.320 --> 1:30:54.120 of it's not my reality. 1:30:54.479 --> 1:30:56.840 So the ship I'm fighting for I want to make 1:30:56.920 --> 1:30:59.720 what Mark Wahlberg makes, and we're like, wait, what, Yeah, 1:30:59.760 --> 1:31:03.280 it's yeah, it's it's it's such a massive they're just 1:31:03.880 --> 1:31:05.400 totally different conversations. 1:31:05.840 --> 1:31:07.440 But yes, I think everyone's. 1:31:09.360 --> 1:31:15.599 Yes, but it's is it doing more harm if there's 1:31:15.840 --> 1:31:19.760 not an understanding it? And are you the type that's 1:31:19.800 --> 1:31:23.160 willing to let them know in a very clear manner 1:31:24.160 --> 1:31:26.080 without you. 1:31:26.160 --> 1:31:28.519 Know, I've never been one to hold my tongue. 1:31:29.360 --> 1:31:32.439 So when you when you respond, when you when you respond, 1:31:32.680 --> 1:31:35.720 is it more like radio silence from your sisterhood or 1:31:37.160 --> 1:31:37.599 I think. 1:31:37.520 --> 1:31:42.040 I think people are more concerned wanting to know more 1:31:42.080 --> 1:31:44.479 about what I'm feeling than you know, what I may 1:31:46.840 --> 1:31:50.080 communicate via a text, so I'll get a call be like, okay, 1:31:50.920 --> 1:31:54.960 help me understand what what what? What exactly you want 1:31:55.000 --> 1:31:58.080 me to convey to the larger group, because I'll talk 1:31:58.120 --> 1:32:01.519 to certain individuals as a postse to like full thread, 1:32:01.720 --> 1:32:04.800 you know, threads of people or whatever. But no, I 1:32:04.840 --> 1:32:09.120 don't think anyone's ever really confused by what I say. 1:32:09.520 --> 1:32:10.280 I'm very clear. 1:32:10.400 --> 1:32:14.519 I'm like, listen, if your movement is not intersectional, and 1:32:14.680 --> 1:32:20.040 you are not centering the most marginalized among us, then 1:32:20.080 --> 1:32:20.639 it's a moment. 1:32:20.760 --> 1:32:23.719 It's not a fucking movement. I'm not interested in a moment. 1:32:24.040 --> 1:32:27.040 I'm too old. I'm too I'm too tired. I've been through, 1:32:27.080 --> 1:32:29.280 I've been too way too much shit. So for if 1:32:29.280 --> 1:32:31.720 I'm actually going to participate in something, we are going 1:32:31.800 --> 1:32:35.960 to center the most vulnerable of us, and that's not you. 1:32:36.520 --> 1:32:40.160 So hand over the microphone, push away from the desk, 1:32:40.280 --> 1:32:43.160 pull some other chairs up, and let somebody else talk. 1:32:43.520 --> 1:32:44.960 I think it has to be I think it has 1:32:45.040 --> 1:32:46.720 to be like you know, when you ask you know 1:32:47.120 --> 1:32:49.080 what we thoughts from moving where. I think it has 1:32:49.160 --> 1:32:52.200 to be some kind of I don't know if just 1:32:52.840 --> 1:32:54.680 it has to be some kind of definition as to 1:32:54.840 --> 1:32:57.000 what is what. So for me, when I saw it, 1:32:57.080 --> 1:32:59.400 it was like I compared it to almost kind of 1:32:59.479 --> 1:33:04.040 like in American gangster Gizell when he was talking about like, Yo, 1:33:04.160 --> 1:33:05.800 this is blue magic, you know what I'm saying, and 1:33:05.880 --> 1:33:08.200 it's like, this is my package, Like I stand behind 1:33:08.240 --> 1:33:10.840 I guarantee it. If you want to cut the ship 1:33:10.920 --> 1:33:13.320 and call it something else, fine, but don't call this 1:33:13.360 --> 1:33:15.360 shit blue magic, you know what I mean. That was 1:33:15.479 --> 1:33:17.600 kind of my thoughts on just like when when it 1:33:17.640 --> 1:33:19.800 first happened, and like first the Harvey shit broke and 1:33:20.000 --> 1:33:23.000 like everybody was like holy shit, you know. 1:33:23.000 --> 1:33:23.240 What I mean. 1:33:23.280 --> 1:33:25.720 It was like yo, like that's a fucking package. But 1:33:25.880 --> 1:33:28.840 then like disease, I'm sorry, shit, it was just. 1:33:28.960 --> 1:33:31.960 Like you feel me. It was you know what I mean, 1:33:32.080 --> 1:33:33.439 I mean to me, until a lot of people it 1:33:33.520 --> 1:33:33.880 was just like. 1:33:36.240 --> 1:33:38.639 Like okay, like like the Harvey stuff, like a lot 1:33:38.680 --> 1:33:40.840 of the other the stories like that was like clear 1:33:41.000 --> 1:33:43.400 cut AsSalt, like that was like that was just black 1:33:43.439 --> 1:33:43.800 and white. 1:33:43.880 --> 1:33:46.120 But isn't that the process? And the oh, it was 1:33:46.600 --> 1:33:48.599 like that's the process, just like you got an Asia Argento, 1:33:48.760 --> 1:33:51.559 like this is something new and everything is not one hundred. 1:33:51.600 --> 1:33:53.120 We got to learn the balance and the. 1:33:53.120 --> 1:33:57.400 Skalets would be on the road to Harvey had he not. 1:33:57.520 --> 1:33:59.599 Been No, no, no, I'm just saying that, for lack 1:33:59.640 --> 1:34:02.559 of a better term, mistakes will happen, some things will 1:34:02.600 --> 1:34:05.920 fall between the cracks, like there will be some misunderstand 1:34:06.040 --> 1:34:08.000 Like that's gonna happen, It's gonna be an disease. But 1:34:08.280 --> 1:34:10.200 if as long as it's you know, ninety. 1:34:10.000 --> 1:34:14.280 Ten, I just with the AZ just in that in particular, 1:34:14.360 --> 1:34:17.479 I'm like back to just the blue maginology. You can 1:34:17.600 --> 1:34:20.360 call that whatever you want, but if I'm the leader 1:34:20.479 --> 1:34:22.600 of that movement, I'm like, yo, you can't call that. 1:34:22.640 --> 1:34:23.160 Shit me too. 1:34:23.479 --> 1:34:25.840 No leader, but there's no leader, no leader. 1:34:26.600 --> 1:34:29.000 I'm just saying, if see but you feel me like 1:34:29.080 --> 1:34:32.240 I'm speaking in how fucking product with that bullshit? 1:34:32.320 --> 1:34:37.080 The problem is also, you know, the problems that I've 1:34:37.160 --> 1:34:40.200 had with it are like, say a publication like Time 1:34:40.320 --> 1:34:47.360 magazine will decide and cherry pick who they feel will 1:34:47.560 --> 1:34:50.360 sell more magazines for the movement right now. When they 1:34:50.400 --> 1:34:52.439 did it last year, and you know, I saw certain 1:34:52.479 --> 1:34:53.880 people on there, I was like, wait. 1:34:53.760 --> 1:34:55.280 A minute, come on, Like. 1:34:57.960 --> 1:34:59.360 And you know, I don't think it should be like 1:34:59.800 --> 1:35:01.960 the prizes or like who's the most victimized or that 1:35:02.120 --> 1:35:02.439 sort of. 1:35:02.439 --> 1:35:04.599 Thing, and that's kind of what it becomes, though at 1:35:04.720 --> 1:35:07.560 least it seems to me it becomes like the Olympics 1:35:07.600 --> 1:35:07.760 of that. 1:35:08.160 --> 1:35:10.519 Yeah, but the way that they portrayed it was just like, Okay, 1:35:10.640 --> 1:35:13.240 well we'll pick these four particular ones because they're big 1:35:13.360 --> 1:35:14.720 box office draws, right. 1:35:15.080 --> 1:35:17.160 And we'll use them as that. And then. 1:35:18.640 --> 1:35:21.120 You know, that's sort of where I was like, Ah, this, 1:35:21.360 --> 1:35:23.960 this is where it gets ruined. But does it need 1:35:24.040 --> 1:35:24.439 a leader? 1:35:26.400 --> 1:35:30.160 I mean, it's like civil rights movement, right, there's so 1:35:30.439 --> 1:35:34.720 many of us who all have different ideas about or 1:35:34.800 --> 1:35:37.200 had different ideas about civil rights and how best to 1:35:37.280 --> 1:35:41.160 get them. There is the Martin Luther King, but you 1:35:41.240 --> 1:35:46.720 know more you know, nonviolent movement, and then they're you know, 1:35:47.640 --> 1:35:52.880 Black Panther, you know Malcolm X. I think you you 1:35:53.040 --> 1:35:58.200 align yourself with whose route matches your ideologies. So I 1:35:58.240 --> 1:36:00.280 don't think there has to be one leader or if 1:36:00.320 --> 1:36:04.080 the goal is liberty, I think there's many paths to that, 1:36:05.000 --> 1:36:07.519 and you you either you lead or you follow who 1:36:08.000 --> 1:36:11.400 best speaks to your needs and your desires and where 1:36:11.439 --> 1:36:12.680 you see the change you want to see. 1:36:12.920 --> 1:36:14.120 So how do you handle somebody? 1:36:14.200 --> 1:36:15.720 So how do you address that in the context of 1:36:15.760 --> 1:36:20.439 somebody like Nick Parker who was found not guilty in 1:36:20.520 --> 1:36:21.280 a court of law. 1:36:21.920 --> 1:36:23.280 But still you know. 1:36:24.840 --> 1:36:27.320 He pre me too though he pre me too well. 1:36:27.360 --> 1:36:28.559 I mean, well he will he. 1:36:32.160 --> 1:36:34.640 No, no, that movie like fucking like he yeah, he 1:36:35.600 --> 1:36:37.599 for that ship, that ship thanks and so like yeah, 1:36:37.640 --> 1:36:39.439 so how do you like reconcile that? 1:36:39.560 --> 1:36:43.519 I mean and you work with him?

But 1:38:49.000 --> 1:38:50.800 but in particular with the Nate Parker thing, that was 1:38:50.840 --> 1:38:52.679 a thing where it's like, Okay, this is a guy, 1:38:53.120 --> 1:38:55.840 black man who was on trial again for raping a 1:38:56.040 --> 1:38:56.960 white woman that. 1:38:57.360 --> 1:39:00.439 That angel, that Lily White. 1:39:02.479 --> 1:39:06.040 He married, Like, no, dude, he was. 1:39:06.200 --> 1:39:08.000 I'm just saying like he was. 1:39:08.240 --> 1:39:11.840 He was on trial in fucking like Pennsylvania, Like Pennsylvania 1:39:12.040 --> 1:39:13.439 is Alabama with Philly in it. 1:39:13.520 --> 1:39:14.000 Nigga, Like. 1:39:16.600 --> 1:39:21.000 He's right, Nigga was on trial in Pennsylvania for fucking 1:39:21.880 --> 1:39:25.280 allegedly raven a white woman beat it, found not guilty. 1:39:25.560 --> 1:39:28.200 His homeboy was found guilty. And then and when he 1:39:28.320 --> 1:39:30.160 went in, they later went back and was like, you 1:39:30.240 --> 1:39:31.120 know what, this was bullshit. 1:39:31.200 --> 1:39:32.240 So his on boy got out. 1:39:32.520 --> 1:39:35.200 So this is a guy who was by all the accounts, 1:39:35.320 --> 1:39:37.960 found not guilty something, but he was still fucking like 1:39:38.120 --> 1:39:38.600 raked over the. 1:39:38.600 --> 1:39:39.000 Coldes for that. 1:39:39.320 --> 1:39:41.240 So it's just like my mama said, yeah, he still 1:39:41.240 --> 1:39:43.320 married that white woman, right, And that's that's what I remember, 1:39:43.439 --> 1:39:45.040 and a lot of women's I don't know whatever, but 1:39:45.600 --> 1:39:46.680 what I don't think, I. 1:39:46.800 --> 1:39:48.719 Just that's the movement. 1:39:50.800 --> 1:39:52.439 So it was been for three. 1:39:56.160 --> 1:40:00.400 I mean, I think listen with anything, there's no easy answers, 1:40:00.439 --> 1:40:03.720 Like you know, I was just having this debate. I've 1:40:03.760 --> 1:40:07.160 been a debate speaking facts about the civil rights movement, 1:40:08.000 --> 1:40:13.240 erasure of women and the LGBTQ community who are instrumental 1:40:13.320 --> 1:40:16.120 in the movement that we to this day don't don't 1:40:16.160 --> 1:40:20.720 recognize and acknowledge. James Balbin rested, like, there, I mean, 1:40:20.800 --> 1:40:24.760 but we today it's twenty eighteen, we're acknowledging them. Back 1:40:24.840 --> 1:40:26.960 in the day, you know, it was like do the 1:40:27.040 --> 1:40:30.479 work and we'll reap the benefits, but we will never give. 1:40:30.320 --> 1:40:32.200 You your your your desserts. 1:40:33.240 --> 1:40:37.320 So every no movement is is ideal or perfect or 1:40:37.720 --> 1:40:42.320 with one leader, and it's rarely the wheels of progress 1:40:42.479 --> 1:40:45.640 rarely turn at the rate we want them to, and 1:40:45.800 --> 1:40:49.040 everything is in flux. And if the goal is liberty, 1:40:50.760 --> 1:40:52.920 it's a long road. And it has been a long road, 1:40:53.120 --> 1:40:54.880 you know, especially for us. 1:40:55.479 --> 1:40:57.439 So and that's what I keep feeling out. It's funny 1:40:57.479 --> 1:40:59.160 because as you asked that question, I always say, you know, 1:40:59.240 --> 1:41:01.280 I'm just going to wait until these white women get 1:41:01.320 --> 1:41:03.320 their freedom so I can get mine, just like voting 1:41:03.439 --> 1:41:05.960 and everything they else and with the dollar and everything else, 1:41:06.000 --> 1:41:08.720 because it seems like there's an order to things, no 1:41:08.840 --> 1:41:11.320 matter how much we're involved, it's an order. And that's 1:41:11.360 --> 1:41:13.080 why I have on this shirt protect Black Yeah. 1:41:13.520 --> 1:41:14.400 Yeah, and that's kind of me. 1:41:14.560 --> 1:41:17.920 Yeah, I don't really, Yeah, I just I stay out 1:41:17.920 --> 1:41:20.400 of white people problems.
