I do leave everybody leave inspired, you know. 36 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 2: But you know I gotta be a rough role of Marcella's. 37 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: It's a rough role. 38 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 2: Because what was really important about this is and I talked, 39 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 2: I framed it as you know, I have my master's 40 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 2: in adult education. I believe in report cards and receipts, 41 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 2: and I believe in having the information in order to 42 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 2: teach both by fire, trial and fire and theory is 43 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 2: important to me. By the way, if you have not 44 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 2: signed up for the training, you better do so. I 45 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 2: don't know what you're waiting on the next training or 46 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 2: the first training. We might as well call it is well, 47 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 2: I'm calling it Marcella's. The semester the first semester, because 48 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 2: it is five courses. One of five we start on 49 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 2: June fourteenth. We are soldiers the roles and responsibilities of candidates, 50 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 2: campaign workers, organizers and activists. 51 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: We're gonna have a lot of fun in it. 52 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 2: Marcella's can attest to that because I have a good 53 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 2: time with my training. So we also learned you know 54 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 2: as well, So make sure you sign up for that 55 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 2: teslafiggrel dot com. 56 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: But I framed in Marcella's as. 57 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 2: The report card of the people. I use the metaphor 58 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 2: that the school system, the system is America. I didn't 59 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 2: want to use my thirty minutes Marcella's to talk about 60 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 2: the system that we already know that we've been enrolled 61 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 2: in for the last four hundred years. I thought it 62 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 2: was important, and I was gonna let the panelis do that. 63 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:33,799 Speaker 1: After I leave. 64 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 2: They can talk about Trump this Trump dad and Democrat 65 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 2: this dad, and you know, look at what these white 66 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 2: folks doing. I wanted to take a moment to talk 67 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 2: about the pupil, to talk about the student, because we 68 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 2: already know what the system is designed to do, right, 69 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 2: and we've been involved in this system for four hundred years. 70 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 2: But I think it's only fair to talk about what 71 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 2: is the report card of the student? And that wasn't 72 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 2: an easy thing to hear, because you know, y'all love 73 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 2: being cheered on. Y'all don't ever want to hear the critique. 74 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 2: You should be leaving and as I told them, you 75 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 2: should be leaving this speech wondering if you're in the 76 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 2: right class. Will somebody really push you? Marcella's that you say, Man, 77 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 2: should I signed up for pre algebra? Should I have 78 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 2: signed up for AP science? Maybe I need to just 79 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 2: go back to regular science. Maybe I need to see 80 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 2: when you got a good teacher that's pushing you. Marcella's 81 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 2: Like we always say welcome home. If you can't see 82 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 2: the growth, if you can't see the development, when you 83 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 2: always say I'm learning, Yeah, if ain't nobody saying I'm learning, 84 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 2: then what are we doing. We're stuck and we're stagnant 85 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 2: because you want me to cheer you on and never 86 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 2: challenge you to be the absolute best that you can be. 87 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 2: And that's what's happening in the movement Marcella's and why 88 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 2: they can't get fifty people to show up at best 89 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 2: right the attendance is down because we have not been challenging, critiquing, 90 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 2: expecting more. And so now they're folks saying they taking 91 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 2: a rest arrest from what's scrolling. It's a lie when 92 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 2: I hear people say, well, you know we done been 93 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 2: through this before being through what not? This generation you 94 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 2: don't know how to can no food, You don't know 95 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 2: how to plant nothing, you don't know how to fish, 96 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 2: you don't know no carpentry what we've been through. 97 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: True, this generation is not prepared. 98 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 2: If all hell break loose physically, emotionally, spiritually, financially, this 99 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 2: generation is not prepared. 100 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: So when y'all say we've been through and who are 101 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 1: you talking? 102 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 2: You must be talking about grandma and now great grandma, 103 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 2: and now we ain't talking about you. 104 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: Because Marcella said the nerve and audacity for me to 105 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: ever expect him to get a roommate told me the 106 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: nerve class in session, y'all, lass I said, welcome home. 107 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: Y'all know I got to keep just so I can 108 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: call him out in class.

So I had to set up. 125 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 2: The scene on what a report card is supposed to 126 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 2: look like. And if we really go by what a 127 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 2: report card is supposed to look like, instead of just 128 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 2: saying America bad, bad, bad, we already know that. 129 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: Les's one thing. 130 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 2: It has grades, which is a student's scores for different 131 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 2: subjects and courses. Then it has comments, and that's feedback 132 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 2: from the teacher. Areas of improvement put a pin in that, 133 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 2: and overall behavior put a pin in that. The third 134 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 2: thing is attendance. Now, this is information on how often 135 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 2: the student attended class, including absence and. 136 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 1: Tardiness, that's right, that's right. 137 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 2: And you know I told everybody, including the look at 138 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 2: your neighbor and say we was tardy. 139 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: See this what y'all said. 140 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 2: This called report cards. So I'm gonna go ahead and 141 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 2: give you the report.

Now, the people in the 146 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 2: room I want I'm glad that they're there.

I don't do all they running. 172 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: Through the through. 173 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 2: The airport and all they're looking because you think you're 174 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 2: looking busy and all that know, you're looking disorganized in undisciplined. 175 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 1: Thank you to me. 176 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 2: When you know I'm busy, you ain't that damn busy. 177 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 2: So I'm leaving at eleven thirty because my plane boards 178 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 2: at once. So I'm giving myself an hour Marcella is 179 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 2: to get there at twelve thirty. That means I'm taking 180 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 2: into account the thirty minutes in case it's an accident 181 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 2: or deer in the road or whatever it is, so 182 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 2: i can get there twelve twelve thirty at best right 183 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 2: cause you know we do at best right now. Luckily, 184 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 2: it only took thirty minutes to get there, so I 185 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 2: got there at noon. So I by the time I 186 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 2: go through TSA and do all of that, I still 187 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 2: had thirty minutes charge of my phone. 188 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: Take a breath. 189 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:29,839 Speaker 2: You know, not have to worry about this, Dad, make 190 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 2: some phone calls, draught it because I do stuff decent 191 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 2: in order. That's why I on the report card. It 192 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 2: actually has an account. You have to take an account 193 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:42,439 Speaker 2: for the student's attended class, absences and tardiness. 194 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: Then of next thing is about behavior and conduct. 195 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 2: Notes on students' behavior, social interactions and attitude in school. 196 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 2: So when I'm talking to the crowd and you and 197 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 2: I look like I've got a pull teeth to get 198 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 2: you to respond, this is where the student behavior come 199 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 2: into play. See all this ties into why we are 200 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 2: where we are Marcello's in the movement. And then overall 201 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 2: it was the grade point average. So I went through 202 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 2: all those things, and I won't redo the whole speech, but. 203 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: I'll sum it up to say this. 204 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 2: Yesterday, George Floyd policies in Minneapolis got reversed. We after 205 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 2: the murder of George Floyd, over one hundred cities put 206 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 2: policy in place for police reform. Now the Democrats need 207 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 2: a piss poor job of talking about it. They should 208 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 2: have talked about it, you know, they answer well, or 209 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 2: people should just know it's basic civits. Why don't they 210 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 2: look it up? Well, Marcellos, they didn't know. Why wouldn't 211 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 2: you talking about it? It Jesus could go preach the gospel, 212 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 2: and he had enough in him to go preach the 213 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 2: gospel to the people. Why didn't you feel like you 214 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 2: had to go appreciate you above it? They got to 215 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 2: come to you. See that sounds like they ro type 216 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,199 Speaker 2: is me where everybody got to come to you. See, 217 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 2: Jesus went out to the people, so you thought it 218 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 2: was better for the people to come to you. And 219 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 2: now the people don't even know what they lost, but 220 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 2: they gonna know once a foot is on another person's neck. 221 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,839 Speaker 1: Yep. Now I'm confused. 222 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 2: Because five years ago, when we were marching in the pandemic, 223 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 2: Marcella's everybody told me that it wasn't a movement a moment, 224 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 2: it was a movement. I got news to tell you 225 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 2: it's actually it was a moment yep. Turns out it 226 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 2: was a moment yep, because I don't see nobody saying nothing, 227 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 2: and here I go crash out on the stage that's 228 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 2: documented on Netflix. 229 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: In front of twenty million people. 230 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 2: At best that they say them watched it and said 231 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 2: I'm willing to die for the calls. So I done 232 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 2: crashed out and I'm standing behind me and ain't nobody 233 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 2: with me. This is why when I talk about trade 234 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 2: getting in the car and O Boy getting in the car, 235 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 2: you better know what you signing up for, because if 236 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 2: you're waiting on somebody else, if I was waiting on 237 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 2: y'all to really believe that it was a movement, I'll 238 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 2: be lost in the sauce. I would feel away about 239 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 2: saying I'm ready to die for the cause. I would 240 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 2: feel away about the death friends. I would feel away. 241 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 2: This is why we got to go all the way 242 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 2: back to the second grade in the sixth grade when 243 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 2: they laugh and say, why are you talking about what 244 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 2: you did in sixth grade? Because any one of these 245 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 2: leaders is out in front of you. I should be 246 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,679 Speaker 2: able to go all the way back Marcella's and pull 247 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 2: the receipts. 248 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: YEP.

No, 840 00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:40,440 Speaker 2: it's much more important than that, because you're literally the 841 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 2: right hand to everything. Trusting you with my food, right, 842 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,839 Speaker 2: trusting you with my purse, trusting you with knowing when 843 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,239 Speaker 2: Marcella say everybody in place before I get there, that 844 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:58,560 Speaker 2: they really in place. Trusting you with contacts, information I 845 00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 2: give you, Trusting you with int it's a deep, it's 846 00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:08,840 Speaker 2: a real. It is the right hand. You have access 847 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 2: and knowledge the things that people do not. So those 848 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,359 Speaker 2: are the type of positions that you know, hopefully we'll 849 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,719 Speaker 2: get more people to be interested in. 850 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:20,839 Speaker 1: And I'm excited about y'all. 851 00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:25,280 Speaker 2: We've gotten an overwhelming response from students signing up, seriously 852 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,800 Speaker 2: overwhelming response. The goal that I'm trying to reach for 853 00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:35,960 Speaker 2: next year, we're honestly probably I don't want to say 854 00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:37,840 Speaker 2: a few, but a few dozen away from what my 855 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 2: goal was next year. I explaining that to you once 856 00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:43,879 Speaker 2: it's actually done. You know, I love talking when it's done, 857 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:46,879 Speaker 2: not when it's in the middle of being done. Right, 858 00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 2: So I'm very excited. We're way ahead of the game. 859 00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:56,120 Speaker 2: But I'm growing this division the way I've always wanted 860 00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 2: to do. I wouldn't I hadn't been able to do 861 00:45:57,719 --> 00:45:59,719 Speaker 2: it because you know, I was truly trying to do 862 00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:01,440 Speaker 2: it in person ourself. We're still gonna do some pop 863 00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:03,359 Speaker 2: up classes in person, you know, every now and then, 864 00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:07,280 Speaker 2: but I'm excited about it. We got our first booth 865 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 2: coming up at Sea Suckers and Sun Dresses on June sixth. 866 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:13,960 Speaker 2: Don't know how many people to be there, but it's 867 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,440 Speaker 2: just nice to you know, do something like that, you know, 868 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:18,680 Speaker 2: to pass out information people come by. 869 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 1: Marcello's will be at the booth.
