At the beginning, 21 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,199 Speaker 1: all right, well, this is for you man, for Charletts, Maine. 22 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: You know, I understand that a couple of days ago 23 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:08,759 Speaker 1: you said that you wanted your daughter to bring home 24 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: the same race that that you guys are, which is black. 25 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 1: I understand that completely. But seven out of ten domestic 26 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: violences that are reported on a female are from a 27 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: black guy. How would you feel if you kept putting 28 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: it on your daughter about dating the black guy, but 29 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 1: then she was getting beat up all the time. First 30 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 1: of all, I don't even know if the statistic is 31 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: really and it's coming and it's coming from a white man. Sorry, 32 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: used to believe it. It's real, It's real. Google it. 33 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 1: You sound like the Jeeves. Yeah, I mean that's that's 34 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: like saying, you know a majority of black people in 35 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,040 Speaker 1: America have probably been killed by white people historically, whether 36 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: we go from slavery to Jim Crow, segregation to now. So, 37 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 1: so I should never let my daughter day the white man. 38 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: The white man has historically been behind every mass carnage 39 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: and murder in America. So I should never let her 40 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: my daughter day to white man just saying she dates 41 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: of Jacob or Stephen Man, she might be more comfortable. 42 00:01:55,440 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: You never know, man, get off my phone.

Correct And you're promoting men doing better 89 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: and talking to me a woman better and doing all 90 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: these things to better men, right, So why would you 91 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: giving it's a little hypocritical to say that to men 92 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,679 Speaker 1: and then tell a loot of women or condone women 93 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: not being up in an honest with men saying okay, 94 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 1: I'm not interested, instead of ignoring them and doing things 95 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: like that. Yes there are men who are crazy. Yes 96 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: there are men who are doing these wild things. Once 97 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: for not doing that. Listen, if a woman is not responding, 98 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: If a woman is not responding to you, my whole point, 99 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: And it doesn't have to be mutually. I mean, it 100 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: could be two different things. But if a woman's not 101 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 1: responding you, that doesn't give you the right to be 102 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: nasty and root to her.

I didn't say 109 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: it's okay, but it is okay for her to ignore 110 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: him if she's not interested. She doesn't owe him anything. 111 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: She doesn't even know him. I know she doesn't owe 112 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: him anything.

Let's talk about 221 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: the business. Yes, and I see all y'all businesses all 222 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: the time. I know about you on real estate. I 223 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:26,719 Speaker 1: know about you and your juice bars. I see what 224 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: you do. Obviously we share somebody together and Karen Kenny. 225 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: So I mean it's really about how you evolve your 226 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: own business. And now I think it's actually somewhat culturally 227 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: relevant to beat business savvy, where that hasn't always been 228 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,079 Speaker 1: the case. Man, That's not always been the case. We've 229 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 1: been so busy being consumers for so long that was 230 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 1: just all this emphasis on ownership and entrepreneurship. I'll tell you, man, 231 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: when I first came out of college, I got a 232 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: chance to start reading a book that really changed my life. 233 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: It was called Power Noomics by Claude Anderson. Right, none 234 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,439 Speaker 1: of you guys have heard about it, and uh, it's 235 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 1: so incredible where it talks about, Hey, you know, right 236 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: after Jim Crow, when everybody felt like they were doing 237 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: African Americans such a service by desegregating socially, but that 238 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 1: was just one of the symptoms. That wasn't the cause 239 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: of the issue, right, and how it should have been 240 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: about the redistribution of wealth and power because the reality 241 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,319 Speaker 1: is that that was always maintained by Caucasian people for 242 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 1: a very long time. So it's not until right now 243 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,319 Speaker 1: that we have certain African Americans that are in that 244 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: rarefied air. And there's so many times where, you know, 245 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: for me going to a school like Duke and play 246 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 1: in this game, I'm the only black person early minority 247 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,199 Speaker 1: in the room, in the room, and I have to 248 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: be comfortable in my own skin. But then when I 249 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: go back to my home, I was being called an 250 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: uncle Tom or sellout because I was trying to play 251 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: in that world and trying to establish myself business wise. 252 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: And now I think it's cool to be smart. It's 253 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 1: cool to be savvy. It's cool to understand how your 254 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: business works in and out, and it's cool to not 255 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: let people be culture vultures and extract from our culture. 256 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: And it is important when we become successful that we 257 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: do things in the areas where we're from to help 258 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: build up those areas. Also, like to own businesses instead 259 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: of letting other people come in and own those businesses. 260 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: And watching what Katie and rich Climate have done is 261 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: pretty it's pretty special because you know, they've made so 262 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: many investments. They invested in Postmates, which obviously just raised 263 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: another one hundred and fifty million and got you know, 264 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: evaluated over a couple of billion dollars at the same time, Like, 265 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: this is not a show where we're trying to sit 266 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: here and pound in our chests and tell you all 267 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: the different strategies you need to you know, insert into 268 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: your business, Like this is a show where we're all 269 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 1: learning together. Right, So Katie's in the room listening to 270 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 1: a Steve Bomber like how many times do you get 271 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,320 Speaker 1: a chance to And it's about access too, though, Maine. Right, 272 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: we listened to a story from Steve Bomber. We're like, well, 273 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: how'd you get started? He's like, well, I just happened 274 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:32,680 Speaker 1: to be next to Bill Gates at the right time. 275 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 1: What like. So so now you're telling me, granted, you 276 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 1: have to have a certain intellect to continue to you know, 277 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: leverage your brand and build it, but it's about accessing. 278 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 1: It's about being around the right kind of people. You 279 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 1: could have the Hamburger stand. We saw Bill Gates. I mean, 280 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: but look, I mean that whole conversation with Steve just 281 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: turned into him owning the Clippers and how they're moving 282 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: to Englewood and how they're going into tax abatements and 283 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: how they're building out retail around it. You're like, oh, 284 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: this is like you're looking at this is a multi 285 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,599 Speaker 1: billion dollar business and how many minorities do we have 286 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: as far as team ownerships. Even from a woman's perspective, 287 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: like Clara Sai, who is a minority owner of the 288 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: Brooklyn Nets, like is out here putting in work and 289 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: she's from China, and what she's doing with Justice reform, 290 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: what they're doing with the nets, what they did with 291 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: the liberty and buying the liberty. I mean, we need 292 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: to talk about more of that so that becomes the 293 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: norm and we hear other young people of minority or 294 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: different ethnic backgrounds and understand that they can achieve that 295 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: same thing. That's that's the truth that you know. The 296 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: one problem that we always have is we always feel like, 297 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,719 Speaker 1: well we give excuses too much. Oh, I don't have 298 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,599 Speaker 1: any money, I can't start. Oh well they got this, 299 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:39,959 Speaker 1: or I couldn't do that. And that's my problem with 300 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: our people sometimes is sometimes we don't want to put 301 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: into work. We sabotage ourselves exactly, well, I can't do this, 302 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: I don't have the resources. Like my thing is, it's 303 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: almost like my accident. I used to say why all 304 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 1: the time, and it's became why not me, Like, yeah, 305 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,559 Speaker 1: I can do it. I mean Robert Johnson started BAT 306 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,199 Speaker 1: with a fifteen thousand dollars loan, Like you can go 307 00:13:58,280 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: to friends and scrape up money if you have the 308 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:01,959 Speaker 1: right kind of strategy in place, and you surround it 309 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 1: with the right people. But it's also about allowing our 310 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: young people to have access to the right people. So 311 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: you know, and I look, I'll own it. I think 312 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: sometimes when you try to climb the ladder, you're so 313 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: busy climbing, you're so busy trying to achieve that you 314 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: forget to pass it forward. And now I think, watching 315 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: what Lebron's doing, watching what Kad is doing, it's about like, hey, 316 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: let's rise up together, like let's share, listen, let's help 317 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: other people. All right, we are more with Jay Williams 318 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: when we come back, so don't move.

Now. 322 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: The first episodes, you guys are talking about sneakers and 323 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 1: the whole sneaker culture, which was an interesting conversation because 324 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: you think about, of course, nowadays with players, it's not 325 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: just how great you are on the court. It's also 326 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: more of a lifestyle thing too. It is and also 327 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: even understanding the sneaker business right, And I think it's 328 00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: something that culturally we're into sneakers, Like, just take it 329 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: another level for all the kids out there understand, like, hey, 330 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: Footlocker just invested one hundred and fifty million dollars into Goat. Right. 331 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: It's a secondary marketing tool for sneakers, secondary market for sneakers, right, 332 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: and it's close to a two billion dollar industry. So 333 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: if you have some pairs of dope kicks, like put 334 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 1: them on a stock X, put them on a goat, like, 335 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: sell them, you can make three multiple off what you 336 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: pay for because people love the culture of sports. I mean, look, 337 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 1: I found this out about ESPN a couple of years ago, 338 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: like seven years ago. We used to play heavy metal 339 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: music going to break off NBA games. Right now we're 340 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: playing hip hop going to breaks. Like hip hop has 341 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: become like pop music to everybody. Right, So if you 342 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 1: have that culture, if you understand, you know the strength 343 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: of it, take advantage of it, and just it comes 344 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: with just doing research and doing your due diligence. How 345 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: did you and Katie get a business relationship? I met 346 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: Rich climbing man back in two thousand and one from 347 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: a party I went to a scooter Bron. Literally we 348 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: were just hanging out with method Man and next thing 349 00:15:57,880 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: I know, I'm meeting Rich and we talk a little bit. 350 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: And then Scott had connected us maybe about a year ago, 351 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 1: and we just started talking about what we do in 352 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: our lives and he was like, Hey, I got this 353 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: idea that I want to do with KD. We want 354 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: to find a way to create a platform where we 355 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: could bring all of our friends, you know, bring you 356 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: guys on board, talk about what you're doing and have 357 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 1: conversations about how people got started. Like create a forum 358 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: where people are talking about their struggles and how they 359 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: start their business, you know, where they see future markets 360 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: in their potential industries, and really just work together and 361 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 1: collaborate and just create content. I mean, everybody is in 362 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: this content while West space anyway, So we can be 363 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: informative with the content that we create with people that 364 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: are able to move the needle from a culture perspective 365 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 1: that's still now. We see these guys like Lebron, we 366 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: see k D. Are they anomalies? Are athletes really getting 367 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: smarter when it comes to business? I think athletes are 368 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: really getting smarter coming to business out So you've got 369 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: those people that are in the rarefied air. But I mean, 370 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: look at the TV right, steals that are happening right 371 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 1: now with sports, it was a multi it was in 372 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: the double digit billion dollars that you're getting these rights 373 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 1: to sports. So you have athletes that are making more 374 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 1: money than ever right now. You have guys that are 375 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 1: marginal players, right, guys who are scoring eleven twelve points, 376 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 1: who are signing four years, seventy five million dollars deals. Wow, 377 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 1: and it really makes me want to come back for 378 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 1: a ten daycome and it's just out there. So I 379 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 1: think that the money is getting so high made that's 380 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 1: getting to this point where it's like, all right, great, 381 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: Like you just made seventy million dollars off of four years, 382 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: you know after taxes, say that's thirty five million. How 383 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,479 Speaker 1: are you investing that money? What kind of things are 384 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 1: you doing with that money so you can create that 385 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: long sustained wealth that we all want, we all talk 386 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: about doing. But then when you see our habits, our 387 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: habits are conducive to doing that because we're spending money 388 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,440 Speaker 1: on frivolous stuff. But you know what I realized with 389 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: a lot of players, and not just NBA, NFL, they 390 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: honestly don't know, and a lot of times people around 391 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 1: them just try to I wouldn't even say fake, they 392 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 1: don't know either, but they just try to invest in 393 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 1: things that they don't know, and you runs up the 394 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: money all the time. And that's what we do. We're 395 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: helping a lot of players that necessarily don't know what 396 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: they're doing and helping them investing properties and investing things 397 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 1: that they'll make money for a long time down the 398 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: road because a lot of them just don't know. And 399 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 1: let me tell you how this happens though, So I 400 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: would see some of my other friends get drafted, and 401 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: I will also know that there's such a business behind 402 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,160 Speaker 1: the business of what they get drafted. So the agents 403 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 1: are paying money to different family members or you know, 404 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:27,360 Speaker 1: different accountants or social advisors, whatever it may be. Financial advisors, 405 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: excuse me, are paying money and everybody's trying to get 406 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,959 Speaker 1: to the kids. So you know, as a kid, all 407 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: of a sudden, now that you're about to make all 408 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 1: this money and all these people come out of nowhere, 409 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:37,439 Speaker 1: you don't know who the hell a trust. So who 410 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: do you trust? You trust some your family members. You're 411 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 1: looking at your family members, no clue and by the way, 412 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: their hands are in your pocket because if they bring 413 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,159 Speaker 1: you to the table for an agent or for a 414 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: financial visor, they're getting a percentage of your deals. Right, 415 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: So then I'm something you're you're making those kind of decisions. 416 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 1: That's the foundation of how you're looking at your business. Like, 417 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 1: we need people to start reaching out and be like, 418 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 1: you know, it's not about I don't trust my family. 419 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: You can still trust your family, but you don't know 420 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: what you don't know with me. I got so many 421 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 1: artists and athletes that call me all the time, especially 422 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,920 Speaker 1: about real estate, and they want to learn. And the 423 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: first thing I always tell them, if you want to learn, 424 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: I want you to come with me. And the reason 425 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: I say that is because I want you to see 426 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: it for yourself. A lot of people just invested, they 427 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: don't know what they're invested, but a lot of people 428 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: don't have that innatability to want to work. So my 429 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: thing is, if that is the case for you, then 430 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: be smart enough to carefully invest your time in the 431 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 1: people that you think love to work too. Then the 432 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: more you can asually say no too. You can't be 433 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: afraid to fire people if somebody ain't care in their weight, like, Yo, 434 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: I love you, but this is business. I gotta let 435 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 1: you go. And I think the most important thing that 436 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: everybody in this room is doing is dispensing the information 437 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 1: because a lot of times we say that all people 438 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: don't want to work, but they really just don't have 439 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 1: an information. They don't even know why to work, you 440 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 1: know what I mean. So, like what you're doing with 441 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: your show, and if you're doing real estate, we're giving 442 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 1: them the information. And that's what it's about. Man, It's 443 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 1: you know, this show for me is it's such a 444 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:54,920 Speaker 1: bigger thing. And when I go and when I talk 445 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 1: to kids, and this is only from my personal experience, 446 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: but you know, growing up and growing up a predominantly 447 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 1: African American in Latin neighborhood and then going to school 448 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 1: in a predominantly white school, Like every time I would 449 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 1: go to school wearing my kicks or wearing my pants 450 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 1: down a little bit, I got called being ghetto. I 451 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 1: got called being black. And then when I went back 452 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: home and I started talking about things that happened politically 453 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 1: or things that I learned in chemistry class, I was 454 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 1: called Uncle Tom. I was called being a sellout. So 455 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 1: when I go on the streets, and I work with 456 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 1: some of these kids like I want them to have 457 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: informed conversations with me. I want this to be the 458 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 1: new norm. I want you to be smart and not 459 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: be called Uncle Tom or sellout. That's the only way 460 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: that we're going to change it from a foundational perspective, 461 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 1: so we can start being in that verified air and 462 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 1: start having these conversations to start owning our own ship. 463 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: We appreciate you for joining us, man, Man, it already 464 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 1: came out.

And how many episodes are there? There 468 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 1: are six episodes in total, but the first two came out. 469 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 1: We did another one with Brian and Mad, which would 470 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: be pretty cool out of air, you know, around when 471 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 1: those two teams meet up. But I got to be 472 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: a fascinating one to question. You talked about sneakers.

I had to just learn I was kind 495 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: of killing myself. I was draining myself and give myself 496 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 1: some negative headaches. And when you look up, man, you 497 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: got beautiful children and family. You just kind of realized, like, 498 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 1: you know, you even draining them with you know, ignorant 499 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 1: movements and you know, being young and silly. Man. So 500 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 1: I love to see y'all walk through it too, like 501 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: to work through everything, you know, because she did stay 502 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: with you, and there were times you thought it wasn't 503 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: gonna work out, and she thought it wasn't gonna work out. 504 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 1: But it's nice when she stays in. She sees the 505 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: work that you're putting in. Like, y'all, you didn't even 506 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: go to Vegas, And I think part of that was, 507 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 1: of course you had family obligations your son's birthday, but 508 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: the other part of it was you don't even want 509 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,159 Speaker 1: to put yourself in a situation in the shoes, especially 510 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: with these cameras.

And 518 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: what you said is real, Like you don't want to 519 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 1: ruin your family, man, Like I saw my father rome 520 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: my family because of infidelity. So I didn't want to 521 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 1: do that to my family. You know. Well, Ryan single, 522 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 1: so he's out. He still Ryan? Oh, man, I ain't single. 523 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 1: About the choice I got it, don't now. I was 524 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: trying to get married to it. I had to take 525 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 1: my brother in Valentine's dinner, the last one. I don't 526 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 1: gonna think about the lonely man. You don't think you 527 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: could possibly work that out? I don't know. Probably I'm 528 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 1: not against it. You know, I ain't dating, like I said, 529 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: I ain't holing, you know. So I was on the 530 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 1: path to get married. I just had some you know, 531 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: bumps in the road in my relationship. So what happened? 532 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 1: You know, you know how it is, and y'all just 533 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 1: certain stuffy'all just can't forgive um.

It's like with the 536 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: level of being on television like when the woman is 537 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: it is embarrassed more, you know. I mean I put 538 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 1: in a position to be more embarrassed than average person, 539 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I'm naturally embarrassed. Yeah, 540 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 1: I didn't even I an't need this girl. It's just that, 541 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:21,919 Speaker 1: you know, for it to be, like I say, when 542 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 1: you allow for somebody else to be on the level 543 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:26,919 Speaker 1: of your woman, that means in the level of respect, 544 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 1: then that's worse than anything else that you could do. 545 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 1: You know, say, I've prided myself on never letting no 546 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 1: other chick ever come to the level of that. In 547 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 1: the end, like I say on TV, jump out the 548 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 1: boat and to sell the story on your ass, you know. 549 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 1: So it's like that level of embarrassment is just he 550 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 1: is kind of un forgive. You got everybody, and she 551 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: got everybody. Never mentioned the room ball alert.

What a set of black 587 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: ain't crew? I resent that only because you know what 588 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 1: I mean, Like, um, you know how, like I said, 589 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 1: I knowing you for longer, you know how I feel 590 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 1: about my business and you know about my brand, and 591 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 1: for what has become on a television show has just 592 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 1: been some you know what I mean, some garbage to 593 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:39,639 Speaker 1: be able to say that, you know what I mean, 594 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: people walked in my shop from what they see on 595 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 1: TV and be like, hey, man with a drink set, 596 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 1: and it's like it's a business, right and I'm there 597 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: conducting every day. So what's exuded on the show, you know, 598 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not what's really going on for me, 599 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. In the light, so that's 600 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: why I opened a new shop. What you'll be seeing coming. So, um, 601 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: it's a separation between you know what is what was 602 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 1: done there before and what can go on now. Though 603 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 1: we can yeah, I can show what I can do, 604 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,959 Speaker 1: but you know what everybody else is doing, what they're filming, 605 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like I said, people will 606 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,159 Speaker 1: do whatever to be on that camera. You know what 607 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: I mean, when it's time to fight it, when it's 608 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: time to turn up, or what she thinks she got 609 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 1: to do to secure her spot for another season. You 610 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: know what I mean, which is it's literally like that, 611 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: and they don't understand. It's like just because these cameras 612 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 1: that were recording for thousands of hours, you get ten 613 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: minutes later and the attention span of the people is 614 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 1: even shorter. You know, So what you just did to 615 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: diminish yourself and my business in the same sense, it's 616 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: worth more than what you're trying to show, you know. So, 617 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 1: and they put it out there and it's like you know, 618 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 1: when it's edited for television, you know, people, that's what 619 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: cuts to commercials, that's the stuff that make people tune 620 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: back in. But you know it's tarnishing my Brandy because 621 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: never forget Ryan is one of the best tattooed artists. 622 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 1: When I press met him, he was known for doing 623 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: tattoos and in Chicago, and I was like, I don't 624 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 1: have any tattoos, as I've ever got a tattoo. I 625 00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 1: would let Ryan do it if I ever got one, 626 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 1: because he he's like always been known for that. And 627 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 1: when you first got on, I was like, don't have 628 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 1: to fool I did I hit him? I said, I 629 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: hit him. I sa Ryan, please don't be actually crazy 630 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 1: on TV. Yeah, and it's got to be weird too, 631 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: because a lot of confrontations and stuff probably happened only 632 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 1: because the cameras roll. Absolutely, but you don't know what's 633 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 1: really it was not right, you know, people turning out, 634 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,440 Speaker 1: how people get lost in it, man, Like it's it's disgusting, man. 635 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 1: Now is it good for business in the sense of 636 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: like more tattoo artists want to come apply just because 637 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: it may want to be on TV? I don't know. Well, 638 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: I mean most definite lists are like tattooing, it's a 639 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,399 Speaker 1: it's a visual business in there right now, in the 640 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 1: climate of social media, you know what I mean, it's 641 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 1: probably the best way to be promoted in you know network, 642 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 1: so to be able to have an entertainment television show 643 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 1: shows a little bit of the boy. But what I 644 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 1: can get through that is, you know, some of the 645 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: messages about how we really some South Side do from 646 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: Chicago who conduct business and we didn't stand in the streets, 647 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 1: and you know what I mean, it's more that can 648 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 1: be done. We got more with the cast of Black 649 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,479 Speaker 1: and Clue Chicago. When we come back to it, move 650 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: It's to Breakfast Club.

Now, Heather Coppenter, like I told you, 1085 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,920 Speaker 1: as a substitute teacher. For whatever reason, she had a 1086 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:16,719 Speaker 1: dispute with the school's principle. Heather was allegedly upset to 1087 00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:19,560 Speaker 1: the school's principle was set to have a birthday party 1088 00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:22,360 Speaker 1: at a particular venue. The venue in question was the 1089 00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:25,440 Speaker 1: pavilion in Erfa Park. Now, I don't know what Heather 1090 00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:28,680 Speaker 1: has against the principle or the principal's daughter, but Heather, 1091 00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:32,960 Speaker 1: a substitute teacher, decided to be a party pooper. Literally, 1092 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:35,319 Speaker 1: let's go to Fox thirteen for the report. Police. All 1093 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:38,160 Speaker 1: eight of these picnic tables here at Erfur Family Park 1094 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:41,320 Speaker 1: had to be replaced after a woman spread human waste 1095 00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:43,839 Speaker 1: and fecal matter all over the wood as a form 1096 00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:46,920 Speaker 1: of payback. Let's mixture of urine and feces, and she 1097 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 1: had it in a big cup. The nasty vandalism costs 1098 00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:52,840 Speaker 1: the county more than twenty three hundred dollars for cleanup, 1099 00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 1: replacing tables and grills, and reimbursing and rescheduling a birthday 1100 00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:59,719 Speaker 1: party set for the pavilion later that morning. It only 1101 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,759 Speaker 1: to the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office a few days to 1102 00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:05,839 Speaker 1: track down and arrest Heather Carpenter. The forty two year 1103 00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:09,240 Speaker 1: old is charged with felony criminal mischief. Turns out, Carpenter 1104 00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:12,840 Speaker 1: is a substitute teacher at Philippi Shores Elementary School. According 1105 00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:16,160 Speaker 1: to arrest paperwork, Carpenter wasn't happy with how the principle 1106 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:19,280 Speaker 1: handled a professional complaint she made. At the end of November, 1107 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:23,000 Speaker 1: the Sarasota woman admitted to investigators she smeared the feces 1108 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:25,440 Speaker 1: with the goal of spoiling the birthday party planned at 1109 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:28,600 Speaker 1: the park that day. The celebration was for the principal's daughter. 1110 00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:31,799 Speaker 1: Official say Carpenter is no longer a substitute and can't 1111 00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:35,280 Speaker 1: volunteer at any district schools. Well, this investigation is active. 1112 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:40,279 Speaker 1: You think Heather was with the sugar honey iced teas. Okay? Now, 1113 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:42,600 Speaker 1: I have a homeboy who shall remain nameless, who used 1114 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:44,719 Speaker 1: to have a real problem beating people up. So he 1115 00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:47,200 Speaker 1: went to angle management as part of his probation for 1116 00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:49,560 Speaker 1: beating people up. So whenever he wanted to beat people up, 1117 00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 1: instead he would resort to fighting with pieces. What I 1118 00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:55,319 Speaker 1: mean by that's wax is crazy. I didn't say him. 1119 00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 1: What I mean by that is if he had a 1120 00:50:57,440 --> 00:50:59,560 Speaker 1: beef with someone, he would cut your cars he opened 1121 00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:02,279 Speaker 1: and put ankleberries in the cushions, or he might go 1122 00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:04,440 Speaker 1: on your house and put a couple of chocolate delights 1123 00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:07,480 Speaker 1: in your sneakers. I remember it is I remember he 1124 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:09,200 Speaker 1: had an issue with his next door neighbor, and the 1125 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:11,680 Speaker 1: next door neighbor's roommate, you know, let him in the house. 1126 00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:15,040 Speaker 1: So my guy put butt truffles in the neighbor's couch cushions. 1127 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:19,440 Speaker 1: What's a butt truffle turd? Never understood why the roommate 1128 00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:21,640 Speaker 1: was down with that, because he had to live there too. 1129 00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:24,120 Speaker 1: All right, tomorrow of the story is it's just some 1130 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:27,360 Speaker 1: real live turn terrorists out here, and Heather Carpenter is 1131 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:31,000 Speaker 1: clearly wanted them. My thing is, Heather, you got beef 1132 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,920 Speaker 1: with the principle, why resort to attacking the kids, Because 1133 00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:36,239 Speaker 1: that's essentially what you were doing about spreading button mud 1134 00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:38,480 Speaker 1: all over the picnic tables and grills at this part, 1135 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:40,759 Speaker 1: none of the adults were gonna be affected by these 1136 00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:43,680 Speaker 1: rusty nuggets. I mean, sure, you put some rector warriors 1137 00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 1: on the grills, so that means everybody's burger would end 1138 00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:48,400 Speaker 1: up getting fudge. Babies on them. But why do that 1139 00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:51,239 Speaker 1: to the kids? Okay, what is something else to r 1140 00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:53,920 Speaker 1: Uncle Charla always tells you never go to war with 1141 00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:56,720 Speaker 1: someone who gives an f less than you, And clearly, 1142 00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,759 Speaker 1: Heather Carpenter don't give an f anyone can get it, man, 1143 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,640 Speaker 1: women and children.

I'm telling you don't go to war 1148 00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:17,800 Speaker 1: with somebody who gives an f lest than you, especially 1149 00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:20,719 Speaker 1: erect the warrior. Now Heather has been charged with third 1150 00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:23,759 Speaker 1: degree felony mischief in property damage, and there's no way 1151 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,560 Speaker 1: she can be in population with other prisoners because what 1152 00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:28,880 Speaker 1: if this tird terrorists decided to let a bunch of 1153 00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:31,960 Speaker 1: frightened turtles loose in a prison. Did you really want 1154 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:35,200 Speaker 1: a corn massacre in one of these correctional facilities?

I never looked at my pool. 1177 00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:39,600 Speaker 1: That's got to make sure it looks normal. Texture. All right, guys, 1178 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:46,759 Speaker 1: the breakfast club back you're checking out the World's most 1179 00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:51,560 Speaker 1: dangerous morning show. Morning Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, 1180 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:53,840 Speaker 1: Charlemane the guy. We all the breakfast Club. We got 1181 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:57,160 Speaker 1: a special guest in the building, Michael Eric Dyson. Good brother, 1182 00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:59,799 Speaker 1: Michael Eric. Damn man, it's good to be up here 1183 00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:02,239 Speaker 1: with y'all. See, you got a nice little book in 1184 00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:03,920 Speaker 1: your hand. You just handed it to me, and now 1185 00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:06,160 Speaker 1: I'm sou I don't want to start reading it. No, man, 1186 00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:08,279 Speaker 1: this thing is off the hook. Veronica Chambers as an 1187 00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:11,560 Speaker 1: extraordinary woman. She did that book, that edited book collection 1188 00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:14,879 Speaker 1: essays on Michelle Obama that did so well last year, 1189 00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,719 Speaker 1: and then this new book, Look, it's hot off the press. 1190 00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:19,480 Speaker 1: It ain't even out yet. They come out next month 1191 00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:22,799 Speaker 1: called Queen Bee, a celebration of the power and creativity 1192 00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:26,279 Speaker 1: of Beyonce Knows Carter and I got an essay in 1193 00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:28,520 Speaker 1: there all right, called the King of Popping, the Queen 1194 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:31,920 Speaker 1: of Everything. And my argument is that Beyonce snatched the 1195 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:34,400 Speaker 1: crown from Michael Jackson. I saw him at his height. 1196 00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:35,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if y'all went to his concerts and 1197 00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:37,320 Speaker 1: saw him at his height, but I did not, and 1198 00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:39,799 Speaker 1: he was extraordinary. It's a genius but what she's doing 1199 00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:42,560 Speaker 1: is on another level. I'm on record as saying I 1200 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:45,520 Speaker 1: think that she's a better performer than Michael Jackson. But 1201 00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 1: I you know, I didn't see Michael in contract. But 1202 00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:50,200 Speaker 1: I just compare, like, you know, the Black Michael at 1203 00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:52,120 Speaker 1: the super Bowl to Beyonce at the super Bowl, Motown 1204 00:54:52,200 --> 00:54:55,000 Speaker 1: twenty five, the Big Cheller, Like I just compare those 1205 00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:57,080 Speaker 1: type of things, and I'm like, I just think she's 1206 00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:00,399 Speaker 1: better on stage. She she absolutely is. I did see 1207 00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:02,480 Speaker 1: them at their height. Since you said that she took 1208 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:04,359 Speaker 1: the crown from Michael Jackson. When you think about all 1209 00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:08,560 Speaker 1: this Finding Neverland controversy with this documentary that HBO is 1210 00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:12,680 Speaker 1: going to show about Michael Jackson, Yeah, you know, it's tough, 1211 00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 1: isn't it. Michael was a great icon, an extraordinary genius. 1212 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:21,000 Speaker 1: Nineteen fifty eight, Madonna, Prince, Michael Jackson. I mean, happens 1213 00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:22,640 Speaker 1: to be my year too, but I ain't putting myself 1214 00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:26,399 Speaker 1: in their league. Just extraordinary creativity was born in that year. 1215 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:30,400 Speaker 1: And yet we know that Michael had tremendous traumas did 1216 00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:34,200 Speaker 1: he have videlago, certainly in terms of his skin and melanin, 1217 00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:37,960 Speaker 1: but he also had self hatred because his father deposited 1218 00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 1: that in his subconscious he didn't think he was very handsome, 1219 00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:43,040 Speaker 1: or he told him he was ugly and he chided him, 1220 00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:47,799 Speaker 1: and then Michael began to have spooky European ideals transplanted 1221 00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:51,880 Speaker 1: onto his face. Was he involved with children, That's what 1222 00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:54,840 Speaker 1: the documentary says. Those two guys when they were younger 1223 00:55:55,239 --> 00:55:58,160 Speaker 1: said it wasn't true. But we know what happens when 1224 00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:01,320 Speaker 1: you're younger and you're seduced and the hypnotics way of 1225 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:04,719 Speaker 1: fame and celebrity may preclude you from telling the truth, 1226 00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:07,160 Speaker 1: or your parents got bought out and then they sold 1227 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:09,840 Speaker 1: you out. All of that is true, but think about it, 1228 00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:12,799 Speaker 1: hanging out with kids like that at that age. It ain't. 1229 00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:15,759 Speaker 1: It ain't something that we would recommend. It's not something 1230 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:19,240 Speaker 1: that we would do for our own kids. It ain't. 1231 00:56:19,440 --> 00:56:22,120 Speaker 1: And if it is normal, it's pathological. So the thing 1232 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:24,879 Speaker 1: is we have to be open and honest. It's hard 1233 00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:28,600 Speaker 1: to reckon with the flaws of our great heroes, and 1234 00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:30,920 Speaker 1: all of us as human beings are flawed. But we 1235 00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:33,359 Speaker 1: got to go where the evidence, you know, tracks us. 1236 00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:36,680 Speaker 1: But that's important where the evidence tracks us because we're 1237 00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:41,360 Speaker 1: living in a me too generation. That is extremely important 1238 00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:46,200 Speaker 1: in terms of reckoning with the flaws, especially of toxic masculinity, 1239 00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:51,200 Speaker 1: of poisonous patriarchy, and how men have had free, if 1240 00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 1: you will, free ways to do everything that we do 1241 00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: that are often messed up and jacked up. At the 1242 00:56:57,239 --> 00:57:00,239 Speaker 1: same time, you can't just have an allegation and your 1243 00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 1: career is done. You can't just disappear after somebody said something. 1244 00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:06,360 Speaker 1: You know the mantras out now believe women, and I 1245 00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:08,320 Speaker 1: understand what that means. That means that women who have 1246 00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:12,960 Speaker 1: historically been not acknowledged, have been denied, have been delegitimated 1247 00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:16,240 Speaker 1: in a culture that refuses to acknowledge their humanity or 1248 00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:18,400 Speaker 1: that the words they say are true, or to take 1249 00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:21,960 Speaker 1: at face value what they mean. I get that. At 1250 00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:25,480 Speaker 1: the same time, you know, it doesn't mean that people 1251 00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:28,680 Speaker 1: haven't been in complicated situations where nuance is called for. 1252 00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:33,000 Speaker 1: Believe people who tell the truth, because whether man or woman, 1253 00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 1: and we know that's very complicated. Believe black people. Yeah, 1254 00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:39,960 Speaker 1: believe black people who tell the truth. And when we 1255 00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:43,200 Speaker 1: have the state of evidence here now that you can 1256 00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:47,880 Speaker 1: merely make an allegation and somebody disappear, I think that's problematic. 1257 00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:50,120 Speaker 1: I don't think that's the best ideas of feminism. I 1258 00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 1: think feminism is height Now. I know a lot of 1259 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:54,080 Speaker 1: people who think that's controversial. I don't think so at all. 1260 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:57,560 Speaker 1: Feminism is about the recognition of women. It's about putting 1261 00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:00,960 Speaker 1: forth the principle of emancipation for human beings who happen 1262 00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:03,320 Speaker 1: to be women. And it's dealing with gender as the 1263 00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 1: predicate for our social examination of issues that continue to 1264 00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:11,000 Speaker 1: be shunted to the priphery or deny legitimacy in our 1265 00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:14,560 Speaker 1: own lives and socially speaking. But at the same time, 1266 00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:17,760 Speaker 1: you can't use me too as an adjudication of competing 1267 00:58:17,800 --> 00:58:20,760 Speaker 1: claims about good dates or bad dates. It can't resolve 1268 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:24,400 Speaker 1: horrible sex. It can't resolve the fact that it's complicated. 1269 00:58:24,720 --> 00:58:27,000 Speaker 1: I am sixty years old. I have never in my 1270 00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:29,560 Speaker 1: life asked a woman to have sex. Now. I know 1271 00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:32,120 Speaker 1: affirmative consent has developed because now we're living in an 1272 00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:35,160 Speaker 1: era where people have to say something explicitly, but there 1273 00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:38,600 Speaker 1: are other manifestations of consent rather than verbal. But I 1274 00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:41,560 Speaker 1: think we have gotten off the rails here by not 1275 00:58:41,880 --> 00:58:46,320 Speaker 1: grappling with the nuanced, complicated ways in which sex and 1276 00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:50,320 Speaker 1: eroticism and romance get involved. So we've got to figure 1277 00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:54,880 Speaker 1: out a way to acknowledge the context of sex. If 1278 00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:57,640 Speaker 1: you want to be nuanced about anything in this country, 1279 00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:00,720 Speaker 1: it's got to be sex. But let's not ten ween 1280 00:59:00,840 --> 00:59:02,760 Speaker 1: in the age we are now, and that a different 1281 00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:05,680 Speaker 1: age prevailed not long ago. Do we have amnesty? Do 1282 00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:07,880 Speaker 1: we say, hey, rules used to be this way, not 1283 00:59:08,040 --> 00:59:11,439 Speaker 1: even unchanged up. Now we're retroactively going back and holding 1284 00:59:11,480 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 1: people of accountable for now. Don't get me wrong here, 1285 00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:18,800 Speaker 1: not for explicit sins, not for problems, not for legally 1286 00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:21,960 Speaker 1: challengeable activities and behaviors that should be held to the 1287 00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:25,200 Speaker 1: highest account. But when we're talking about nuance and interpretation, 1288 00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:27,640 Speaker 1: do you like it? Do you not like it? No 1289 00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:31,200 Speaker 1: means no period. And yet in the interaction between men 1290 00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:33,880 Speaker 1: and women, many people who turn people down twenty five 1291 00:59:33,920 --> 00:59:36,800 Speaker 1: times and not married with three kids. Right, that's the 1292 00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:39,760 Speaker 1: kind of reality of sex that we're not seeing taken 1293 00:59:40,680 --> 00:59:43,480 Speaker 1: in a serious fashion, in a nuanced way in the 1294 00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:45,800 Speaker 1: broader public discourse about that. I know we got off 1295 00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:48,520 Speaker 1: of that on the Michael Jackson thing. But the Michael 1296 00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:51,080 Speaker 1: Jackson thing to me is about nuance and complication and 1297 00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:53,720 Speaker 1: being willing to face up to the flaws of our 1298 00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 1: iconic figures and at the same time seat their humanity 1299 00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:58,200 Speaker 1: and then figure out what to do from now. You 1300 00:59:58,240 --> 00:59:59,800 Speaker 1: said a lot of three things. I want to say. 1301 01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:03,280 Speaker 1: Number one, I agree. I think you should listen to everybody, 1302 01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:06,920 Speaker 1: listen to all women, but believe all proof too. I 1303 01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:09,640 Speaker 1: think the Michael Jackson thing is unethical only because those 1304 01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:12,960 Speaker 1: guys did you don't understand and say, hey, nothing happened, 1305 01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:14,920 Speaker 1: and they said that all through their adulthood. Even the 1306 01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:17,400 Speaker 1: God's mom said he really even said in Ape Michael. 1307 01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:21,080 Speaker 1: And Third, yes, we're not acknowledging that culture has changed. 1308 01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:23,240 Speaker 1: We grew up in and told me today the eighty 1309 01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:28,280 Speaker 1: to nineties was totally different than now, with language, with action, 1310 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:31,640 Speaker 1: everything right. So I'm saying that you can't both assert 1311 01:00:31,720 --> 01:00:34,960 Speaker 1: the necessity of the agency of human beings, especially women, 1312 01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:38,160 Speaker 1: as agents of their own sexual desire, and then deny 1313 01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:41,160 Speaker 1: that agency when it comes time to talk about culpability 1314 01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:44,080 Speaker 1: and responsibility and mutuality. So it is important that we 1315 01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 1: encourage women when there's bad behaviors to be able to 1316 01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:50,200 Speaker 1: feel that they have power to speak about it and 1317 01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:52,360 Speaker 1: that they will be supported because I still see when 1318 01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:55,520 Speaker 1: women say things, people don't believe them. They think that 1319 01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:58,080 Speaker 1: they're just trying to, you know, get some cloud off 1320 01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:01,040 Speaker 1: of saying something. So it is different time for women 1321 01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:03,400 Speaker 1: who and think about the women who still won't come forward, 1322 01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:05,160 Speaker 1: that's still it's too scared to do that. I think 1323 01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:08,160 Speaker 1: those numbers are far greater than somebody that will say 1324 01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:10,040 Speaker 1: something like, oh I dated him and I had buyers 1325 01:01:10,120 --> 01:01:12,919 Speaker 1: with Morse the next day. But what I'm trying to say, 1326 01:01:13,080 --> 01:01:15,880 Speaker 1: I agree with everything you just said. I'm not denying 1327 01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:18,960 Speaker 1: the legitimacy of women having the voice now to come forward. 1328 01:01:19,160 --> 01:01:22,120 Speaker 1: The reality is is that we are not We cannot 1329 01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:27,320 Speaker 1: resolve the infinite complexity of human relationality and the intimate 1330 01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:31,680 Speaker 1: relations of sex with a resort to a kind of 1331 01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:34,920 Speaker 1: all or nothing approach. And I think that's part of 1332 01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:37,480 Speaker 1: the problem. We got more with Michael Eric Dyson. Where 1333 01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:39,240 Speaker 1: we come back, don't move is to breakfast Club, Goal 1334 01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:46,560 Speaker 1: Morning Yea. Where back is the breakfast club dj N 1335 01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:49,680 Speaker 1: v Angeluee, Charlemagne the guy we have Michael Eric Diyson 1336 01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:51,440 Speaker 1: in the building. What do you think about this era's 1337 01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:55,320 Speaker 1: cancel coach and mentality? I love young people. I ride 1338 01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:57,400 Speaker 1: with him. I write books about here by bud canceling. 1339 01:01:57,600 --> 01:01:59,920 Speaker 1: That's some white supremacist notion to me. First of all, 1340 01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:01,920 Speaker 1: you can't cancel nobody. You ain't got no subscription to 1341 01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:04,320 Speaker 1: a magazine or a credit card. You ain't canceling nothing. 1342 01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:06,439 Speaker 1: And if you want to cancel something, cancel Donald Trump. 1343 01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:09,280 Speaker 1: How idiotic is that? Because you can't cancel Trump. He's 1344 01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:12,840 Speaker 1: there politically, He's an existential and empirical fact that you 1345 01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:15,680 Speaker 1: can't dismiss because I'm done with you read the hand. 1346 01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:19,240 Speaker 1: Digital culture cannot deal with analog realities, it seems to me, 1347 01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:23,000 Speaker 1: and an analog reality here is there are persistent social 1348 01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:26,440 Speaker 1: facts and features of our existence that have to be 1349 01:02:26,640 --> 01:02:28,520 Speaker 1: dealt with. I want to say that again. Digital coaching 1350 01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:31,320 Speaker 1: can't handle analog facts sometimes, I mean, and that's what 1351 01:02:31,400 --> 01:02:33,520 Speaker 1: the deal is, right, because here we are we canceling. 1352 01:02:33,680 --> 01:02:35,959 Speaker 1: There were some analog canceling going on too. I mentioned 1353 01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:39,120 Speaker 1: Malcolm X, who was murdered by people who were intolerant 1354 01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:42,400 Speaker 1: of his viewpoint canceled him. Now, now, young people will 1355 01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:44,800 Speaker 1: tell me that's a metaphor. But the metaphor to me 1356 01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:48,800 Speaker 1: is wrought. It's it's it's it's not only is it flawed. 1357 01:02:49,080 --> 01:02:52,240 Speaker 1: I think it's it's it's it's especially flawed because it 1358 01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:55,000 Speaker 1: borrows from the very logic we want to oppose. Right, 1359 01:02:55,080 --> 01:02:57,440 Speaker 1: white supremacy wants to cancel people out, hang you, let 1360 01:02:57,480 --> 01:03:01,240 Speaker 1: you castrate, you remove, you, cancel, no argue, put them 1361 01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:04,120 Speaker 1: in a in a moral box, and say this is problematic. 1362 01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:07,560 Speaker 1: Let's resist them. But the impulse to cancel, to me 1363 01:03:08,000 --> 01:03:09,800 Speaker 1: is borrowed from the very people we want to resist. 1364 01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:12,880 Speaker 1: This cancel culture. You're canceled, You're done. I'm just tired 1365 01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:16,360 Speaker 1: of the intolerance that young people show, especially young black people, 1366 01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:18,360 Speaker 1: and trying to cancel each other. And then somebody gonna 1367 01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:20,880 Speaker 1: cancel your black ass. You're trying to cancel somebody, Then 1368 01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:23,000 Speaker 1: you're gonna be to cancel lead, and then what's gonna happen? 1369 01:03:23,040 --> 01:03:25,520 Speaker 1: Then a great a man to steal said, cancel coach 1370 01:03:25,640 --> 01:03:28,040 Speaker 1: is real, but redemption coaches should be real as well. Well, 1371 01:03:28,080 --> 01:03:29,640 Speaker 1: it is real as well. But the cancel culture to 1372 01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:32,680 Speaker 1: me and canceled he's saying, I'm just saying to cancel. 1373 01:03:32,800 --> 01:03:34,360 Speaker 1: But first of all, you can't cancel somebody. What does 1374 01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:37,560 Speaker 1: that even mean? You can't cancel somebody? Right? You can't 1375 01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:40,040 Speaker 1: even cancel your bills. You can't even cancel the people 1376 01:03:40,120 --> 01:03:42,440 Speaker 1: living with you. What you should be saying is I 1377 01:03:42,480 --> 01:03:44,960 Speaker 1: will put you in a particular situation where I hold 1378 01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:47,680 Speaker 1: you accountable. I want to resist you. I think you're problematic. 1379 01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:50,800 Speaker 1: You can't even cancel Donald Trump because I think the 1380 01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:53,600 Speaker 1: logic of canceling is derived from a white supremacist culture 1381 01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:57,240 Speaker 1: that believes that human beings are subject to our arbitrary 1382 01:03:57,360 --> 01:04:00,760 Speaker 1: will and caprice. And I think that's more deep than that. 1383 01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:02,479 Speaker 1: It's deeper than that. I think that's what makes people 1384 01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:05,200 Speaker 1: evolved to when you when you when you hold them accountable, 1385 01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:07,000 Speaker 1: and you say, look, I'm gonna hold you accountable. I 1386 01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:08,480 Speaker 1: want you to think about the things that you don't 1387 01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:10,439 Speaker 1: think about the thing that you said. If that person 1388 01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:13,960 Speaker 1: really cares, I think that's what growth happens, of course, 1389 01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:17,280 Speaker 1: because otherwise, look, I'll tell you what cancel culture is. 1390 01:04:18,240 --> 01:04:21,760 Speaker 1: Young kids second third grade getting kicked out, life folk 1391 01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:24,680 Speaker 1: canceling them every day, right, cancel, throwing them out of school. 1392 01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:28,200 Speaker 1: Wait a minute, Johnny messed up, little killed you messed up, Chanique, 1393 01:04:28,240 --> 01:04:30,600 Speaker 1: were messed up. But can they get some redemption? Little 1394 01:04:30,680 --> 01:04:33,640 Speaker 1: little Johnny is little Sally is getting redemption. They ain't 1395 01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:38,240 Speaker 1: getting canceled. They're getting sent to not even probably to delinquents, 1396 01:04:38,480 --> 01:04:42,000 Speaker 1: you know, to delinquency or putting in a situation in 1397 01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:44,600 Speaker 1: a classroom where they are held separate from the other 1398 01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:46,760 Speaker 1: class they are being talked to, they are being putting 1399 01:04:46,800 --> 01:04:49,160 Speaker 1: put in time out. Negroes believe time out means the 1400 01:04:49,240 --> 01:04:50,880 Speaker 1: time I knock you out for what you did wrong 1401 01:04:50,960 --> 01:04:52,720 Speaker 1: and the time you wake up that's time out. So 1402 01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:56,120 Speaker 1: the reality is we've got to understand more complicated ways 1403 01:04:56,120 --> 01:04:59,480 Speaker 1: and approaches, because, yeah, canceling somebody to meet borrows from 1404 01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:02,400 Speaker 1: the logic the very people that we hold as enemies 1405 01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:05,640 Speaker 1: or that our enemies to the process of development and evolution. 1406 01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:07,880 Speaker 1: So yeah, we're canceling our young kids. And look at 1407 01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:09,600 Speaker 1: the result of that. What do you think about, you know, 1408 01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:13,240 Speaker 1: US canceling super Bowl halftime and US canceling Gucci and 1409 01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:17,840 Speaker 1: Product and Mount Clary. See the super Bowl half time 1410 01:05:17,880 --> 01:05:19,920 Speaker 1: to me is complicated. Let me tell you why. I 1411 01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:23,760 Speaker 1: think when jay Z refuses to go, that's huge. When 1412 01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:26,480 Speaker 1: Rihanna refuses to go, that's huge. And I think they 1413 01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:29,720 Speaker 1: should stand with their principles and I stand with them. Right, 1414 01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:31,640 Speaker 1: jay Z is a friend of mine. Love him, love 1415 01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:36,200 Speaker 1: his consciousness, love his commitment of conscience to our cause, 1416 01:05:36,320 --> 01:05:39,480 Speaker 1: and refusing to participate was a huge statement. Travis Scott 1417 01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:41,400 Speaker 1: now so much. Travis Scott doesn't do it. The next 1418 01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:44,600 Speaker 1: need grow up. We'll stand in that place. Right. So 1419 01:05:44,800 --> 01:05:48,000 Speaker 1: the thing is, or people want to cancel Gladys Knight 1420 01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:51,280 Speaker 1: Last Night is seventy four years old, recognize her game, 1421 01:05:51,600 --> 01:05:54,800 Speaker 1: Recognize what she's meant to this culture. Midnight Train to Georgia, 1422 01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:57,840 Speaker 1: Go get Farah. Jasmine Griffin's book Who Set You Flowing 1423 01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:02,400 Speaker 1: to look at her examination of immigration, Native Black and 1424 01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:06,200 Speaker 1: black migration narratives and how the music in part set 1425 01:06:06,280 --> 01:06:09,320 Speaker 1: the terms for our own self understanding, and that The 1426 01:06:09,440 --> 01:06:11,760 Speaker 1: thing is is that when when you think about canceling 1427 01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:14,240 Speaker 1: Gladys Knight, she's women, even if you think she made 1428 01:06:14,240 --> 01:06:16,200 Speaker 1: a mistake. I didn't agree with the statement she made 1429 01:06:16,200 --> 01:06:18,440 Speaker 1: about the anthem that I didn't agree with that, but 1430 01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:20,960 Speaker 1: I agree with the fact that Gladys Knight is such 1431 01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:25,000 Speaker 1: a huge figure who should be seated legitimacy right TB. 1432 01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:26,800 Speaker 1: I believe women to what women do we believe? What 1433 01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:29,600 Speaker 1: do we believe Gladys Knight? Do we believe Canada's owns. 1434 01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:31,840 Speaker 1: She's a black woman too, right. So the thing is, 1435 01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:34,600 Speaker 1: we got we got to test the durability of their 1436 01:06:34,640 --> 01:06:37,440 Speaker 1: truth and the insight that they bring. Gladys Knight is 1437 01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:39,240 Speaker 1: a seventy four year old black woman who was fought 1438 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:41,760 Speaker 1: before some of these people were born. She got she 1439 01:06:41,920 --> 01:06:43,840 Speaker 1: got the cash, She got the cash, she got the 1440 01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:47,120 Speaker 1: you know, she got the rigorous testimony to what she 1441 01:06:47,200 --> 01:06:50,320 Speaker 1: has been committed to. So and plus, Atlanta is a 1442 01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:53,080 Speaker 1: black city with a black mayor. Right. Meek Mill was 1443 01:06:53,120 --> 01:06:56,800 Speaker 1: there that weekend talking about criminal justice reform. It's complicated. 1444 01:06:57,040 --> 01:07:00,080 Speaker 1: There are multiple streams of resistance. Third good Marshal. It 1445 01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:01,880 Speaker 1: was in the courts, Martin Luther King Junior was in 1446 01:07:01,920 --> 01:07:04,440 Speaker 1: the streets. What happened to the inside outside, And everybody 1447 01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:06,680 Speaker 1: can't be the point guard. Somebody got to be the forward, 1448 01:07:06,800 --> 01:07:08,480 Speaker 1: somebody got to be the center. We got to have 1449 01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:12,400 Speaker 1: multiple strings unconscious. But when black people cancel I canceler 1450 01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:15,240 Speaker 1: you because I disagree with your style and your route, 1451 01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:17,200 Speaker 1: I think that's problematic. It doesn't mean that they are 1452 01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:19,080 Speaker 1: black people who sell us out. There are many of them. 1453 01:07:19,120 --> 01:07:22,120 Speaker 1: Clarence Thomas Ben Carson, Right, we can talk about that 1454 01:07:22,320 --> 01:07:24,160 Speaker 1: but others would say, wait a minute, let's be more 1455 01:07:24,440 --> 01:07:26,880 Speaker 1: cautious about saying that. But I don't believe in canceling them. 1456 01:07:27,280 --> 01:07:30,240 Speaker 1: I don't believe in eradicating them. I believe in engaging them. 1457 01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:33,320 Speaker 1: If we can talk to white supremacists across the table, 1458 01:07:33,640 --> 01:07:37,120 Speaker 1: Martin Nuther King Junior sat down and negotiated, what white 1459 01:07:37,160 --> 01:07:39,720 Speaker 1: supremacists you mean? We can't do the same thing for 1460 01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:42,280 Speaker 1: our brothers and sisters. We have to cancel you out. 1461 01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:44,800 Speaker 1: So now you're telling me we can't disagree with each 1462 01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:46,880 Speaker 1: other while saying I hate you, I think you are 1463 01:07:46,920 --> 01:07:48,960 Speaker 1: so wrong. Look, I can disagree with you, I can 1464 01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:51,120 Speaker 1: think you're wrong, but I don't have to hate you. 1465 01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:53,480 Speaker 1: I don't have to cancel you. So I think when 1466 01:07:53,520 --> 01:07:55,400 Speaker 1: we look at the Super Bowl, that was a far 1467 01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:58,000 Speaker 1: more complicated affair than we made it to be. And 1468 01:07:58,080 --> 01:08:02,280 Speaker 1: look look at what happened entered the nisin squabbles. So 1469 01:08:02,480 --> 01:08:05,880 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick my man whom I love, and Eric Reid 1470 01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:08,520 Speaker 1: my man whom I love. Right, Eric Reid got into 1471 01:08:08,560 --> 01:08:13,080 Speaker 1: a fight rhetorically ideologically with Malcolm Jennings. Malcolm Jennings is 1472 01:08:13,160 --> 01:08:16,880 Speaker 1: doing the work in Philadelphia. He's talking about criminal justice reform. 1473 01:08:17,040 --> 01:08:19,679 Speaker 1: He's talking about cash balls, He's speaking about the ways 1474 01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:23,920 Speaker 1: in which the system of justice for black people is 1475 01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:28,479 Speaker 1: fundamentally flawed, and using his resources, took one hundred million 1476 01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:31,479 Speaker 1: dollars right that group of his players, fellow players from 1477 01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:33,600 Speaker 1: the NFL, to say we're going to leverage this in 1478 01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:37,559 Speaker 1: defense of our practices. How but that's what I'm saying. 1479 01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:40,560 Speaker 1: They feel like Malcolm sold them out. But Malcolm, this 1480 01:08:40,720 --> 01:08:42,559 Speaker 1: is my point about the cancel culture about to sell 1481 01:08:42,600 --> 01:08:45,000 Speaker 1: out language. Right, Martin King Junior was called to sell out? 1482 01:08:45,120 --> 01:08:47,080 Speaker 1: Did he sell us out? Let me think? I think 1483 01:08:47,160 --> 01:08:49,400 Speaker 1: he didn't. But at the time, people thought that, why 1484 01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:52,040 Speaker 1: can't we do both hands? Why can't we say, Malcolm 1485 01:08:52,080 --> 01:08:54,519 Speaker 1: do this, Martin do this, Fanny lew Hammer do this, 1486 01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:57,200 Speaker 1: Ella Baker do this, we all do it together. How 1487 01:08:57,240 --> 01:08:59,360 Speaker 1: come you can't do something somebody else can't do something 1488 01:08:59,400 --> 01:09:01,439 Speaker 1: I can't do some Then we say, look, we're dealing 1489 01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:03,800 Speaker 1: with the same elephant as many parts of us, and 1490 01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:07,320 Speaker 1: yet we are so intolerant. Why because we are so desperate, 1491 01:09:07,560 --> 01:09:11,679 Speaker 1: we are so traumatized. Any expression has to represent all expression. 1492 01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:13,920 Speaker 1: One film, you know what you didn't do in that film? 1493 01:09:14,080 --> 01:09:17,680 Speaker 1: And neck grow it's one film, right, so I think 1494 01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:20,280 Speaker 1: that we have to have an open mindedness. We want 1495 01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:23,960 Speaker 1: to sit around on the sidelines casting stones at people 1496 01:09:24,240 --> 01:09:27,559 Speaker 1: rather than building together and doing something we think is affected. 1497 01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:30,040 Speaker 1: We got more with Michael Eric Dison where we come back, 1498 01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:33,160 Speaker 1: don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. 1499 01:09:33,280 --> 01:09:37,200 Speaker 1: Your mornings will never be the same. Yep, we're back. 1500 01:09:37,240 --> 01:09:40,880 Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. DJ Envy Angela, Ye, Charlemagne the guy. 1501 01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:42,920 Speaker 1: We have Michael Eric Diyson in the building. I got 1502 01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:45,840 Speaker 1: a couple more questions yet here. What do you think 1503 01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:50,559 Speaker 1: about all the backlash that Kamala Harris's receiver. I mean, 1504 01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:53,720 Speaker 1: she was on the Greatest Show in America yesterday, a 1505 01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:55,920 Speaker 1: couple of days ago, the Breakfast Club where she broke 1506 01:09:55,960 --> 01:09:58,160 Speaker 1: it down. I mean this is an example of what 1507 01:09:58,240 --> 01:10:01,000 Speaker 1: I'm talking about. Kamala Harris been black from the Getty up. 1508 01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:03,439 Speaker 1: Ain't nobody course she'd been black. She was black and fine. 1509 01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:06,280 Speaker 1: She was black and intelligent. She was black and showing 1510 01:10:06,360 --> 01:10:08,240 Speaker 1: up doing her thing. And whether you agree with or not, 1511 01:10:08,320 --> 01:10:10,280 Speaker 1: had nothing to do with her blackness, is with her ideology. 1512 01:10:10,320 --> 01:10:12,679 Speaker 1: Maybe you disagree with the politics she has, that's fine, 1513 01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:16,080 Speaker 1: but don't question the black name, right, the same people 1514 01:10:16,439 --> 01:10:19,760 Speaker 1: that want to hold black people to account in this 1515 01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:22,560 Speaker 1: generation council culture and with the me too, which is 1516 01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:26,599 Speaker 1: extremely important. Ain't saying nothing about the passage in Michelle 1517 01:10:26,640 --> 01:10:30,160 Speaker 1: Obama's book where she went a whole hog against Jeremiah 1518 01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:35,799 Speaker 1: Wright in one of the most misrepresentative pieces of literature 1519 01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:37,960 Speaker 1: we've seen in the last five years. Yeah, I didn't. 1520 01:10:38,040 --> 01:10:40,080 Speaker 1: I didn't agree with that either, because it's like they 1521 01:10:40,280 --> 01:10:43,040 Speaker 1: loved Jeremiah right at one point, but when it became 1522 01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:46,559 Speaker 1: bad for business politically, they wanted to stand to the side. 1523 01:10:46,680 --> 01:10:48,960 Speaker 1: I didn't. I don't like that. I'm white still doing 1524 01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:52,479 Speaker 1: that in the book like y'are not selling a billion copies. 1525 01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:57,680 Speaker 1: I love Michelle Obama, right, but Michelle Obama gratuitously assaulting 1526 01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:01,599 Speaker 1: Jeremiah Wright is offensive in the nth degree. But where's 1527 01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:04,280 Speaker 1: the cancel culture? Cancel Michelle? Are you gonna cancel Michelle 1528 01:11:04,439 --> 01:11:06,439 Speaker 1: or a lot you're gonna cancel Michelle? Or they don't 1529 01:11:06,439 --> 01:11:08,880 Speaker 1: know that that digital error don't know about Jeremiah right. 1530 01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:10,880 Speaker 1: Let's say that's my point. Something you just said don't 1531 01:11:10,960 --> 01:11:13,719 Speaker 1: know and ain't and ain't trying to know and ain't 1532 01:11:13,840 --> 01:11:16,560 Speaker 1: trying to ax what they don't know. This is my 1533 01:11:16,680 --> 01:11:19,040 Speaker 1: problem with digital culture. On the one hand, it's brilliant. 1534 01:11:19,400 --> 01:11:22,360 Speaker 1: It puts an entire library at your keystroke. That's the 1535 01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:25,439 Speaker 1: genius of digital culture. And no more encyclopedias. Remember we 1536 01:11:25,520 --> 01:11:27,840 Speaker 1: all have en cyclopedias at home. But see but then 1537 01:11:27,920 --> 01:11:29,680 Speaker 1: the browsing is cut off. So when you go to 1538 01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:31,280 Speaker 1: the car calog you're looking for the book. Oh, I 1539 01:11:31,360 --> 01:11:33,920 Speaker 1: was looking for Charlotte Mayne's book, but I discovered dj 1540 01:11:34,040 --> 01:11:37,439 Speaker 1: Every's book. I discovered Angela Ye's book. You know, I 1541 01:11:37,600 --> 01:11:39,960 Speaker 1: discovered something else because I was looking. And I think 1542 01:11:40,040 --> 01:11:44,200 Speaker 1: again the illusion of omni competence that the digital culture 1543 01:11:44,240 --> 01:11:46,160 Speaker 1: gives you it believed. It makes you believe because I 1544 01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:49,360 Speaker 1: can will the keystroke, I can say something Ooh, I 1545 01:11:49,520 --> 01:11:52,240 Speaker 1: said something bold, and I can cut somebody out, or 1546 01:11:52,320 --> 01:11:54,960 Speaker 1: I can I can, I can shade them. Look at 1547 01:11:55,000 --> 01:11:57,919 Speaker 1: the shades of meaning, not the shade you can give Facebook. 1548 01:11:57,960 --> 01:11:59,680 Speaker 1: I had to face the book and read it. Look 1549 01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:03,040 Speaker 1: at the digital errors genius, but look at its subversion 1550 01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:08,240 Speaker 1: of tradition and apprenticeship. There is no sense of apprenticeship 1551 01:12:08,560 --> 01:12:11,759 Speaker 1: that you can't have it. Now, everybody shouldn't be famous. 1552 01:12:11,960 --> 01:12:15,719 Speaker 1: Everybody shouldn't have a platform. Everybody doesn't have the capacity 1553 01:12:15,760 --> 01:12:18,360 Speaker 1: to speak well at a particular time, and we should 1554 01:12:18,400 --> 01:12:21,520 Speaker 1: acknowledge that just because you have access to that particular 1555 01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:25,439 Speaker 1: forum doesn't mean you got something profound to say. Should 1556 01:12:25,479 --> 01:12:28,840 Speaker 1: it democratize expression so that people that you want to 1557 01:12:28,920 --> 01:12:31,800 Speaker 1: rule out have something to say? Absolutely, But you gotta 1558 01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:34,160 Speaker 1: have the bona fidays, you gotta have the chops, you 1559 01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:36,479 Speaker 1: gotta have the ability once you get in to show 1560 01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:38,000 Speaker 1: you deserve to be there. Back to your point about 1561 01:12:38,040 --> 01:12:41,280 Speaker 1: Kamala Hairs, it's ridiculous. Judge her based upon her performance, 1562 01:12:41,560 --> 01:12:44,240 Speaker 1: Judge her based upon her politics, Judge her based upon 1563 01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:46,439 Speaker 1: what she will or will not do. But to dismiss 1564 01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:49,000 Speaker 1: her is not being black enough. We've haven't been down there. Well, 1565 01:12:49,120 --> 01:12:51,639 Speaker 1: we hadn't been there and done black before. Let's figure 1566 01:12:51,680 --> 01:12:54,679 Speaker 1: out more complicated than nuanced ways to engage a figure 1567 01:12:54,720 --> 01:12:57,040 Speaker 1: like Kamala Hairs. What should the black agenda? Because a 1568 01:12:57,080 --> 01:12:58,800 Speaker 1: lot of people are saying, we're not even thinking about 1569 01:12:58,880 --> 01:13:01,360 Speaker 1: voting in twenty twenty if these candidates don't have a 1570 01:13:01,400 --> 01:13:05,400 Speaker 1: black agenda, Okay, just get what you already got here, right, Look, look, 1571 01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:08,600 Speaker 1: look talking about the black left. I'm part of the 1572 01:13:08,600 --> 01:13:10,960 Speaker 1: black left. I had huge arguments with the black left 1573 01:13:11,040 --> 01:13:15,000 Speaker 1: last election. Ain't no difference between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump? 1574 01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:17,880 Speaker 1: How you like it? Now? Are you telling me that 1575 01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:21,599 Speaker 1: you don't think as flawed as Hillary Clinton was, as 1576 01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:24,320 Speaker 1: problematic as you thought she was? That Hillary Clinton was 1577 01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:27,920 Speaker 1: no different than Donald Trump. This is the trauma and 1578 01:13:28,840 --> 01:13:31,560 Speaker 1: problem and tragedy of so much of our politics. And 1579 01:13:31,720 --> 01:13:33,960 Speaker 1: again for younger black people getting involved, it didn't turn 1580 01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:37,200 Speaker 1: out my way. Welcome to the world. You gotta fight again. 1581 01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:41,439 Speaker 1: This ain't Jesus versus Muhammad, right. This ain't no pure 1582 01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:46,560 Speaker 1: ecstasy of divine appropriation of human form to express identities. 1583 01:13:46,600 --> 01:13:49,080 Speaker 1: These are flawed human beings who are jacked up like 1584 01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:51,599 Speaker 1: you and I are, but some less so than others, 1585 01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:54,360 Speaker 1: and some with better policies than others. We have to 1586 01:13:54,520 --> 01:13:57,559 Speaker 1: make them accountable to our interests. The black agenda should 1587 01:13:57,600 --> 01:14:02,040 Speaker 1: be what crime? Criminal justice reform is huge, The persistence 1588 01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:06,519 Speaker 1: of poverty is huge in this country. Voters suppression. Let's 1589 01:14:06,560 --> 01:14:09,519 Speaker 1: not ask Kamala Harris how black she is. Let's ask 1590 01:14:09,600 --> 01:14:14,040 Speaker 1: what policy she has to combat voters suppression in this country. 1591 01:14:14,360 --> 01:14:16,840 Speaker 1: We will never have perfect politics, but we have to 1592 01:14:17,080 --> 01:14:19,680 Speaker 1: understand the need to get involved in the game. And 1593 01:14:19,760 --> 01:14:22,200 Speaker 1: if we laid back with that same attitude. Look at 1594 01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:25,519 Speaker 1: the last election, people were putting in harambee and filling 1595 01:14:25,560 --> 01:14:28,240 Speaker 1: in the blank of something just to be voting for protests. 1596 01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:30,240 Speaker 1: This is what the right wing understands. You ain't just 1597 01:14:30,400 --> 01:14:34,280 Speaker 1: voting for Trump, You're voting for the Supreme Court. Look 1598 01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:39,120 Speaker 1: how ingenious they were. There are now probably three choices 1599 01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:43,320 Speaker 1: that Donald Trump will have to shape that court. And 1600 01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:45,679 Speaker 1: if you don't think that makes a difference in your life, 1601 01:14:46,439 --> 01:14:50,439 Speaker 1: you are sadly mistaken. This is why it's extremely important 1602 01:14:51,320 --> 01:14:53,400 Speaker 1: for young people to get involved and for us to 1603 01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:56,200 Speaker 1: continue to vote.
