This one, I think is 336 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 4: amazing because I just watched this documentary on Netflix about 337 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 4: the Hasidic Jewish community and they have their own court system, right, 338 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 4: I didn't know that, Like within their community, they going 339 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 4: like they have antiquated laws, like things you can't do 340 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 4: with divorce, things you can't do with sex. 341 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 3: Cussey of your children, and like. 342 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 4: If people want to leave that lifestyle and go experience 343 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 4: like you know, freedom of choice, they almost have to 344 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 4: always leave their family behind because you're not like their 345 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 4: legal system is like, nah, you can't have your kids. 346 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 4: It's crazy and it's binding all like. 347 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, something I said, Like they had their own police force, 348 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 6: like they literally you have like a city within the city. 349 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 4: So I don't think it's crazy to that black people 350 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 4: would want something similar. Now, I don't know how we 351 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 4: would come up with that, and I don't know the 352 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,159 Speaker 4: nuances of it, and far better minds would have to 353 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 4: think about something like that than not canid right, But 354 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 4: it's not a crazy demand, is what I'm saying. And 355 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 4: if I would have learned this as a kid, I 356 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 4: would or that's crazy. Why would they let us do that? 357 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 4: But now I'm like, yeah, why wouldn't we know better 358 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 4: than other people what we go through? Number ten And 359 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 4: it's not like white people don't do that shit any 360 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 4: racial trial. They immediately try to strike off all black jurors. 361 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 4: There's a reason for that. It's not coincidence. We won't 362 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 4: land bread house and education clothing just as if peace yep. 363 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 4: So zero out of ten for the United States on that. 364 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 4: But yeah, that documentary is though. And then the other 365 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:44,879 Speaker 4: part of it that was really truly sad was the 366 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 4: abuses that women experience from men within that movement, and 367 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 4: that kind of crumbled them, at least from that documentary 368 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 4: figure kind of crumbled the movement. 369 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, because through women are the backbone, and a lot 370 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 6: of times men in power they abused that power. 371 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 5: Part of the abusive. 372 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,120 Speaker 6: Part of being abusive is abusing the women that are 373 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:08,159 Speaker 6: close to them. And when these women are like fuck that, 374 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 6: a lot of times it crumbles because men, not the 375 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:13,239 Speaker 6: men don't work. But men a lot of times are 376 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,360 Speaker 6: the face, a lot of the grunt work, a lot 377 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 6: of the going into the community, a lot of the 378 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 6: fundraising at A lot of that shit that actually keeps 379 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:26,120 Speaker 6: the foundation of whatever you're trying to do together is women, right. 380 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 4: So it was, and then like there were different guys 381 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,920 Speaker 4: who like decided like I'm gonna try to run for office, 382 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 4: I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna do that.

The post show is the one we 465 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 4: reported LGBTQ News supposed to include the most transactors in 466 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 4: a live in a live TV ever show series ever. 467 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 3: Obviously, I'm happy to see. 468 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 4: That many trans poc are working, but they recently announced 469 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 4: they were casting Evan Peters, Katemar, and James Vanderbeek. 470 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 3: So my fears that they're taking. 471 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 4: This story about the culture of queer poc and Center 472 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 4: insists head white folks. 473 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:15,640 Speaker 3: On sophoiurism ish. 474 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 4: I'm hoping for the best, but this could easily go 475 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,400 Speaker 4: from positive LGBT News to fuck it with black people 476 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 4: in the heartbeat. Here's a problem with that, in my opinion, 477 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 4: because we don't hire a lot of transactors, they wouldn't 478 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 4: have a name necessarily to be competitive with the casting 479 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 4: of these other names. So because of our essentially because 480 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 4: of our lack of inclusion thus far when they announced 481 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 4: the casting, the roles are what matter, not the name. 482 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 4: So if the roles are James Vanderbeek in a supporting 483 00:22:54,840 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 4: role and the actor that is the star is a 484 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 4: trans person of color, we wouldn't know right now, you 485 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. We almost have to see the 486 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 4: show to know. I'm not saying you're wrong by the way. 487 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:09,919 Speaker 4: I mean, shit, we all know how these stories go. 488 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 4: But in general, like I'm a wait and see before 489 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 4: I start feeling out worried about it, because who would 490 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 4: we There's not enough names for us to feel like, oh, 491 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 4: they got her or they got him.

The hotel 639 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 4: was supposed to be a greeting, right, not a name 640 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 4: of what you are, but a greeting. Using that greeting 641 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 4: is different.

So so 653 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 4: don't say that a swastika is about hatred of Jews 654 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 4: and represents Nazis in Germany. 655 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, no, no no no.

He responded by 926 00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:00,520 Speaker 4: saying he doesn't seek color. That and the rumors that 927 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,719 Speaker 4: the star of fruit Vale Station, the movie about the 928 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:07,240 Speaker 4: murder Oscar Grant, has been his breakout roll in Hollywood 929 00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:10,360 Speaker 4: was among the celebrities supporting the notion of all lives matter, 930 00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 4: led to a condemnation of Jordan and spread across several 931 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:14,360 Speaker 4: popular black gossip sites. 932 00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:16,839 Speaker 3: Spilled in the heated comments on his Twitter Instagram. 933 00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:24,279 Speaker 4: Accounts, so then he ended up issuing societ apology behind this. 934 00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:28,360 Speaker 4: I have been a professional actor for most of my life, 935 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,360 Speaker 4: but being regarded as a leading man is new to 936 00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:33,759 Speaker 4: me and has taken some getting used to. Recently, I 937 00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:35,680 Speaker 4: had the opportunity to be featured under cover of one 938 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:38,160 Speaker 4: of my favorite magazines, and the interview several points that 939 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,760 Speaker 4: I shared were communicated in ways that do not reflect 940 00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,240 Speaker 4: my true feelings and opinions. In addition, there are reports 941 00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:45,160 Speaker 4: written about me elsewhere that simply aren't true. 942 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:47,680 Speaker 3: I like to set the record straight first. 943 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:49,920 Speaker 4: And foremost, I believe that black lives matter, unequivocally and 944 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:53,280 Speaker 4: without a session. I've never said, well, written, snapchatted, tweeted, Instagram, 945 00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 4: or apply anything to the contrary. Any report that states 946 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 4: otherwise is a complete fabrication. I portrayed Oscar Grant in 947 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 4: my first leading role in a feature film, Fruitvale Station. 948 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:04,880 Speaker 4: I'm a founding member of the Blackout for Human Rights Network. 949 00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:06,880 Speaker 4: I gave a speech just a few months ago on 950 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,680 Speaker 4: the importance of Black Lives Matter movement up the BT Awards. 951 00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:12,000 Speaker 4: It's frustrating to see a false claim stirred up on 952 00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,759 Speaker 4: social media, which has caused my supporters to question where I. 953 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:15,920 Speaker 3: Stand on this crucial issue. 954 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 4: But I am confident that my history and continued engagement 955 00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:22,520 Speaker 4: with my community will speak louder than unfounded rumors. Secondly, 956 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:24,759 Speaker 4: it is challenging to have a nuanced conversation about race 957 00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:28,000 Speaker 4: and Hollywood period. The sensative subject becomes even more complicated 958 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:29,920 Speaker 4: when you're dealing with sound bites and articles. A simple 959 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 4: idea or opinion can be abbreviated and distorted as is 960 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 4: communicated to readers. 961 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:34,040 Speaker 3: Out of context. 962 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 4: Allow me to be clear a by my ideas on 963 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:39,360 Speaker 4: rolls traditionally reserved for white actors.

And I think once I realized that, the 1131 00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:22,719 Speaker 4: kind of mystery to all of it went away from 1132 00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:24,759 Speaker 4: me because I was like, oh, it's not really your 1133 00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:28,040 Speaker 4: no offense, But it's not really whether or not your 1134 00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:28,959 Speaker 4: ideas are good. 1135 00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:31,040 Speaker 3: It's just getting sick and. 1136 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:35,560 Speaker 4: Tired of the motherfuckers just being like, yeah, white people represent socialism, 1137 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 4: not you. And it's a sad truth, by the way, 1138 00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:43,080 Speaker 4: because they do you say socialists the average person close 1139 00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:47,480 Speaker 4: their eyes, well vision probably Bernie Sanders, you know, and 1140 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:50,120 Speaker 4: that's not and he's not even like. 1141 00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 3: A true socialist. 1142 00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,399 Speaker 4: So they have a huge much like the hotel people, 1143 00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:56,000 Speaker 4: they got a huge pr problem. 1144 00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:59,080 Speaker 3: And I'm not gonna fix it for them. 1145 00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:02,560 Speaker 4: But you know, every time I've heard the ideas, I 1146 00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:04,239 Speaker 4: don't have a fun with the ideas, you know. 1147 00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:09,080 Speaker 3: And I think it's. 1148 00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:12,719 Speaker 4: More sad than anything else to watch black people on 1149 00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:15,960 Speaker 4: the on the left fight with black people on the 1150 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:21,080 Speaker 4: far left because they have so much in common, but. 1151 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:26,239 Speaker 3: We we just talk to each other so fucked up. 1152 00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:31,480 Speaker 4: It's just I don't know why we can't talk to 1153 00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:34,120 Speaker 4: each other like we got some sense, you know. And 1154 00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:37,560 Speaker 4: it's almost like certain folks revel in it, because I 1155 00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:41,279 Speaker 4: really do think online there's there's a I can't wait 1156 00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:44,400 Speaker 4: till someone studies this and we really get this, like 1157 00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:49,439 Speaker 4: a generation of people examined and get some like research done, 1158 00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:53,319 Speaker 4: because I think there's a false element of power that 1159 00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:58,080 Speaker 4: comes from the ability to like control our social media experience. 1160 00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:00,200 Speaker 3: That has truly. 1161 00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:07,320 Speaker 4: Hurt the way we communicate in some areas. In other areas, 1162 00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:09,200 Speaker 4: it is truly expanded, and there are things that are 1163 00:57:09,239 --> 00:57:11,719 Speaker 4: just simply would have been impossible twenty years ago, would 1164 00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:14,720 Speaker 4: have been impossible. And just like all things with in humanity, 1165 00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:16,919 Speaker 4: there's some good and that's some bad. It doesn't mean 1166 00:57:17,360 --> 00:57:18,320 Speaker 4: that it's not worth it. 1167 00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:18,720 Speaker 3: It doesn't. 1168 00:57:18,760 --> 00:57:23,000 Speaker 4: But there's some things where you could literally be ninety 1169 00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:27,400 Speaker 4: nine percent aligned with somebody, and the one percent that 1170 00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:31,880 Speaker 4: you don't have in alignment is exactly where you stop 1171 00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:32,800 Speaker 4: fucking with people. 1172 00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 3: And y'all don't get along with y'all anymore. 1173 00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:38,400 Speaker 4: And the trauma over these experiences, the way we talk 1174 00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:40,120 Speaker 4: to each other, it never goes away. 1175 00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:41,840 Speaker 5: Those wounds I never healed. 1176 00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:45,720 Speaker 4: There's friendships that will never be fixed. There's people that 1177 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:47,919 Speaker 4: really were never even friends. You thought you were friends 1178 00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:49,920 Speaker 4: because y'all agreed on shit until you find the thing 1179 00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:52,760 Speaker 4: you didn't agree on. Now, y'all not friends. That's not 1180 00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:55,919 Speaker 4: a friendship, you know what I mean? Like that, that's 1181 00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:58,000 Speaker 4: not real. That's not like, that's not a. 1182 00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:01,520 Speaker 3: Real thing, you know. So I think we really have 1183 00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:02,000 Speaker 3: hit a. 1184 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:06,120 Speaker 4: Like I said, once I realized that I got, I 1185 00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:08,280 Speaker 4: was less pressed to be like, oh, I got to 1186 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:10,760 Speaker 4: find out what these ideas are, more like, oh wait, 1187 00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:14,760 Speaker 4: I know these ideas y'all in a book form I'm reading. 1188 00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:16,880 Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, yeah, that's perfectly fine. That makes sense. 1189 00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:18,920 Speaker 3: Why wouldn't we do that? Yes we should. 1190 00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:22,320 Speaker 4: I agree about abolishing prisoners as well, Like, I don't 1191 00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:24,720 Speaker 4: know what you do for punishment necessarily after that, but 1192 00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:27,960 Speaker 4: what we have right now is not good, And I'm 1193 00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:30,480 Speaker 4: completely fine with this shit going away and finding some 1194 00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:35,240 Speaker 4: other solution for rehabilitating people that offend, or something like 1195 00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:38,800 Speaker 4: finding some way to truly try to reintegrate people into 1196 00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:42,720 Speaker 4: society and empower them to not feel the need or 1197 00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:46,880 Speaker 4: have to do some type of impulsive or even just 1198 00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:48,120 Speaker 4: some criminal behavior. 1199 00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:50,880 Speaker 3: Like I would love that. Who's against that? 1200 00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:55,400 Speaker 4: But it's different when somebody's on Twitter, motherfucking you and 1201 00:58:55,480 --> 00:58:58,720 Speaker 4: giving you that idea, as opposed to somebody talking to 1202 00:58:58,760 --> 00:58:59,360 Speaker 4: you about it. 1203 00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:02,200 Speaker 6: You know, those are those are two different ways. And 1204 00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:05,720 Speaker 6: like I said, I words mean things, and when I 1205 00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:08,240 Speaker 6: when people put stuff out there, I literally read them. 1206 00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:10,320 Speaker 5: And like I said, that's between me and you. 1207 00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:12,080 Speaker 6: You come at me on ten and then you expect 1208 00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:14,720 Speaker 6: us to have a reasonable rational conversation for what. 1209 00:59:15,080 --> 00:59:18,080 Speaker 4: Right I've talked Like It's just weird because when I 1210 00:59:18,160 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 4: talk to people that are more to the left of me, 1211 00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:24,640 Speaker 4: that are black or whatnot, in a private setting or 1212 00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:28,800 Speaker 4: face to face or just they're my friend, we don't 1213 00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:31,280 Speaker 4: talk to each other like that. And I completely can 1214 00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:32,320 Speaker 4: get where they're coming from. 1215 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,800 Speaker 3: Even when we disagree. It don't end like the way 1216 00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:38,800 Speaker 3: it ends on social media. And there's something to it. 1217 00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:41,160 Speaker 4: And once I figured that out, I was not as 1218 00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:42,960 Speaker 4: pressed to be like, let me go read this right now. 1219 00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:48,400 Speaker 4: I'm reading Beyond Respectability by Britney Cooper so that that's 1220 00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:51,000 Speaker 4: you know so, And I'm sure I work my way 1221 00:59:51,040 --> 00:59:53,959 Speaker 4: around some back to those some of those books. But yeah, 1222 00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 4: not as pressed anymore because I've I've read about these 1223 00:59:56,800 --> 00:59:58,200 Speaker 4: ideas my whole life.

I think our generation, 1263 01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:47,760 Speaker 6: I think they said we are we've been on the 1264 01:01:47,840 --> 01:01:50,760 Speaker 6: internet just as long as we've been off the internet, 1265 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:53,720 Speaker 6: and so for us, our interactions are very different versus 1266 01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:56,640 Speaker 6: the generations now. You know, like my niece Lada, her 1267 01:01:56,640 --> 01:01:59,080 Speaker 6: whole life has basically been, you know, some form of 1268 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:02,960 Speaker 6: internet and online and things like that.

The 1275 01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:25,760 Speaker 6: person screaming on the corner with the sign, everybody walks 1276 01:02:25,800 --> 01:02:28,080 Speaker 6: past that person, and that's who you become on the internet. 1277 01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:28,640 Speaker 3: Then you work. 1278 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:30,240 Speaker 5: Then you talk about why your. 1279 01:02:30,080 --> 01:02:33,160 Speaker 6: Call's not growing, You talk about how people don't pay 1280 01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:35,320 Speaker 6: you any attention.
