00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: people who are excited by the one to being a program.

39

Speaker 1: We have to find a way to expand it because

40
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 1: there's so many people that are interested in being a

41
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 1: part of it. Then once they finished that, they're going

42
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,960

Speaker 1: be a rapper, I want to be an actor and

46
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 1: just out there. So they need to have some kind

47
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: of skills behind it. And these guys are doing a

48
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,200

Speaker 1: geared at adults. And once the city got winned, I

83
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: about York. We joke about New York a lot about

84
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 1: it it being it's crime, but you cleaned up New

85
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: York a lot, you know, and how difficult was it

86
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: to clean up? It's getting in of work to do.

87
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: But you know now, you know, I eating York. Now,

88
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: my kids played basketball in NewYork and the AAU team,

89
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: so I do a lot of parties in New York.

90
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: Is cleaning It's way better than it was. Well, we're

91
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 1: doing we can, man, you know, we're trying to. Programs

92
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: like this help us out a lot. We put more

93
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 1: police on the street, but but more importantly, the things

94
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: that happened that that are not dealing with long enforcement

95
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: is what helps us move. Creating jobs for people, opportunities

96
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: for them to go to training, to meet people like

97
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: JD to talk to the young people, to give them

98
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: opportunities to do something different than just being the streets

99
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: all day. I mean, that's what we have to do.

100
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: The more programs that we have like this, targeting towards

101
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: high school kids, elementary school kids, out of school, kids

102
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 1: who dropped out, who need places to go to be

103
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,359
Speaker 1: re engaged in society, all those programs help us to

104
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: reduce crime and make the environment better. You don't look

105
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: stressed down at all, man, I know, it's only you know,

106
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 1: it's stressful, but I'm not stressed up. And it's another

107
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 1: thing as far as people always stay he's trying to

108
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: stunt on Nook like it's a lot of money coming

109
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: through Nook right now corporate wise. Just all of that

110
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: is going on, and you know, I think, what was

111
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: it three summers ago was the sum of the Death? Yeah, yeah,

112
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: just three summers ago before he got an office, we

113
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: had what we called the Sum of the Death where

114
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,799
Speaker 1: it was just crazy over there. I'm talking about every modify,

115
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 1: handguns and all types of craziness. So just for us

116
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: to come from there to him, like you said, you

117
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 1: got it to the point where it's like tolerable where

118
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: you're like, yo, I could I could have my kids

119
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,039
Speaker 1: go through it. I know how to manu through New York.

120
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: Now my kids played through, but kids playing in New

121
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: York and it's and I feel comfortable at it. Yeah.

122
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 1: So Weak the beautiful Community Center one of the best

123
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: I've ever seen in this area. I mean they have

124
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,480
Speaker 1: everything from rock climbing, their basketball. Oh you must be

125
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: talking about Grafting. Yeah, that's that's where I'm from. Yeah,

126
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: that's where I'm from. That's where I'm from. But yeah, man,

127
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: and it's like I said, we come in a long

128
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,039
Speaker 1: way and it's slowly but surely it's picking up. But

129
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 1: it's definitely not like it was, you know, so that

130
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 1: that's got to get I think also the og you know,

131
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,720
Speaker 1: gang gang members out there are realizing that wasn't the way,

132
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 1: and they're teaching the kids like yo, y'all can't be

133
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: out here just killing each other. Like they've got a

134
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: different mindset, some of them. But for the mayor, for

135
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: rasping Racket, didn't you sit down with some of the

136
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: gang members and set up a meeting. I remember reading

137
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,559
Speaker 1: about that many times. But when I as the mayor,

138
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: we did it, and I think that's effective. And we

139
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: have a program called nvr R New York Violence Production

140
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: Initiative where we talk of the paroles and people uh

141
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: violent offenders, trying to get them social services and other programs,

142
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 1: but also talk to them about what's happening in the

143
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: community and where we're trying to go. Where we're take

144
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: in Newark, and you guys are like an obstacle to it.

145
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,119
Speaker 1: We can't do the development we need, We can't create

146
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: the opportunities and jobs for children, for your families. If

147
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: you're gonna continue to shoot the neighborhood up. Nobody wants

148
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:14,479
Speaker 1: to come and be a part of the city. So

149
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 1: we have those kind of frank, open conversations that they

150
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: probably never even had in their life before, you know,

151
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: especially not with the mayor president saying listen, you know,

152
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: we're trying to build a community center here. You can't

153
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:25,840

Speaker 1: alternatives other than just athletics and like entertainment. Oh yeah.

160
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: We have a lot of workforce development programs in the

161
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: city for in the summertime. We're doing coding, the coding

162
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:50,480
Speaker 1: program for young people within j I T. We're doing

163
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: urban design kind of a program for about eight hundred

164
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 1: kids that we're organizing now. So we're trying to increase

Speaker 1: the summer youth employment this summer and get more kids

166
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 1: involved in these kind of training programs specifically targeted again

167
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: out of kids who more than likely may not finish

168
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: high school in a traditional way, trying to grab them

169
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 1: before they decide that they want to make crime a career,

170
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: because that's what a career criminal means. You're making crime

171
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 1: a career, that we have to give you another career

172
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: besides crime. And uh so we we're we're looking for money.

173
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: The financial institutions have been involved, the banks have been involved,

174
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: uh to other you know, nonprofits and all of the

175
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: philanthropic organizations have been involved. Trying to raise the revenue.

176
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 1: We need to put these kids to work in the

177
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 1: summertime and get them to kind of work for us

178
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 1: training that they need. Performing Arts school. Yeah, I went

179
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 1: to Arts High School. Yep, right there on Martin Luther

180
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: King Downtown Nook or you know, Like, like I said,

181
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: a lot of us came, but what made you decide

182
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: to go? Now? Actually like it, it was just a

183
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: blessing that I ended up there because I actually was

184
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: going to go to week Back then, we had science,

185
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: how we had university, how we had Arts High and

186
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: I was more into science, you know. I mean I

187
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 1: was always acting in schools that I was in, but

188
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: I figured that I wanted to be a science scientist.

189
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: So I tried to get into science and university. Things

190
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 1: was wrong with my application, like where I was living

191
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: and all types of craziness, and I ended up going

192
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 1: in the arts and it was like, you know, I

193
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: got accepted right away and then I got there and

194
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: I just ended up so involved in what it was

195
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 1: I was doing and being a drama major that everything

196
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: just kind of took off from this. So when you think,

197
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 1: because you know, you from New York, like when when

198
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: did it go up? Because I remember when I was young,

199
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: we used to go walk around downtown New York, you know,

200
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: coming from South Carolina, and the one somebody was like, no,

201
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: we can't go to New York no more. Yeah, um,

202
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: well it was I say it was after the ninety

203
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 1: eight was like remember ninety eight, that was pretty good

204
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: year for all of us. You know what I'm saying.

205
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: It kind of blew up. So I say somewhere around

206
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 1: two thousand, maybe you know, people started having I don't know,

207
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 1: less care or less respect about whatever was going on.

208
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: But then there's that disparity between having a father figure

209
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 1: or role models or mentors, you know, male mentors. And

210
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,079
Speaker 1: so once that, once that happened, where like we used

211
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,200
Speaker 1: to listen to our old heads, you know what I'm saying. Like,

212
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 1: but once that that age group of kids came up

213
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: past ten to about twelve, and they wasn't listening to

214
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 1: us anymore, or we wasn't talking to him anymore. How

215
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: it went, That's when everything kind of went, you know, left.

216
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 1: So I say, somewhere between two thousand two thousand and five,

217
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: stuff started getting like kind of rough. But it's a cycle,

218
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. You learn, you know, they learned,

219
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: they grow up because now they're grown up and they

220
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: in a position where they got to try to force

221
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 1: the little heads to listen to them. So, you know,

222
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 1: you guys have had a lot of events there recently,

223
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: Black Girls Rock was there last week, Will Smith, Jada,

224
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: that's beautiful, Jill, everybody was out there this Yeah, it was.

225
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: It was incredible too. Now, No, Newark also has a

226
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 1: lot of prim real estates right by the by the water. Now,

227
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 1: are you scared of losing that to to big investors

228
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 1: and people are not necessarily from the community, No, not

229
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: at all. I mean, first of all, Newark is not

230
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 1: like these other cities where it is really the population

231
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 1: is so condensed and heavy that you have to put

232
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 1: people out in order for other people to come in.

233
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: So we can stand another one hundred two hundred thousand

234
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: residents in the comfortably uh you know, New York. At

235
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 1: one point, I had almost a half a million people

236
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 1: in it, you know, right now, and we're about three

237
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 1: hundred thousand. So we have opportunity for more business, more investment.

238
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: We're trying to bring more manufacturers, big box industries to

239
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: the city of New York. We are a prim location

240
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 1: for manufacturing. You know, we have the third largest seaport

241
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 1: in the nation. There mostly all the goods and services

242
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 1: that come through this trosted area come through the New

243
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: York Seaport. We have an international airport. The transportation in

244
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 1: the city is you know, next to none. So the

245
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 1: kind of manufacturing we're trying to uh, you know, create

246
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 1: in the city is where is the type that has

247
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 1: the trucking, that puts out people to work, that uses

248
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 1: the seaport, uses the transportation, uses the airport, and we

249
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 1: want them to come. So and they are coming almost

250
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 1: twenty dollars pew, they got shot. Well, you know, people

251
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 1: start leaving, you know, people people leave the city. You know,

252
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,839
Speaker 1: there was a trend where people began leaving cities right

253
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 1: so after the New York Rebellion in sixty seven, and

254
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 1: many people started moving to the suburbs. Now there's trending

255
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 1: in the the way all over the country. Everybody wants

256
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 1: to live in a city. The millennials, they want to

257
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 1: have conveniance. They want to live next to the train station,

258
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: they want to walk, you know, they want to have

259
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 1: all of the amenities around their house where they don't

260
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 1: have to get public catch the train all the time,

261
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: or drive, you know. So they're coming back to these cities.

262
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: And so New York is a part of that. And

263
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: New York is expensive, for Bogan is expensive. These city

264
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,199
Speaker 1: is expensive. So people are looking for opportunities to have

265
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,719
Speaker 1: decent housing in safe environments where the amenities are right there.

266
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 1: I'm looking at I'm looking at downtown Nook crazy because,

267
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 1: like I mean, I've seen it change a whole bunch

268
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: of different ways. But what it's turning into right now,

269
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:37,959
Speaker 1: as far as it's having a Prudential Center down there

270
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: and and Jay Pack down there, and then all these

271
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 1: people will be coming through for these hockey games, and

272
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 1: I mean they don't just go there for the game,

273
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,319
Speaker 1: maybe walking around downtown and I'm like, wow, Like, yeah,

274
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 1: they don't know, but but that's good for us, you know,

275
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: because we get to see them, they get to see us,

276
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: you know. And they're fixing up downtown. We got all

277
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 1: of the a new type of strip mall coming up downtown.

278
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: And yeah, Whole Foods is coming in. But that's nice.

279
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: We have three more hotels coming downtown. Yep, yep, yep,

280
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,439
Speaker 1: it is. It's about to happen. That's what the programs do.

281
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 1: You all encourage industries like all these new like hotels

282
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: and stuff that are you know, coming up. You' all

283
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 1: encouraging them. The higher kids that absolutely absolutely. Endigo hire

284
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 1: ninety percent of new workers. Wow. And what happened was

285
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: when we found out the hotel was coming, they partnered

286
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: with the city to create a hospitality program, hotel motor

287
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 1: management program that we did in the city and we

288
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: trained the residents so they'll be able to get those jobs.

289
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: And so the beautiful thing about it is we did

290
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 1: that just for the Endigo, not knowing that three other

291
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: hotels will come in. And so we've been working and

292
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 1: working and working, and so now we have three other hotels,

293
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,959
Speaker 1: So that program is going to live past the hotel Indigo,

294
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: so we get more people through the program and higher

295
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: the other hotels that are coming to the city. Do

296
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,319
Speaker 1: you give owners breaks for hiring Newark residents, because that

297
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 1: would be something now I'm sure a lot of people

298
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 1: are coming. I opened up a business, you know, hire

299
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 1: Newark residence, a discounting taxes or discounting in or discounting

300
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 1: that is that possible? Well, right as possible. But right

301
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 1: now when people get when you get a tax abatement

302
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 1: or subsidies from the city, there's requirements. So most developers

303
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 1: don't most of them don't use all of their money

304
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 1: or none of their money at all as a matter

305
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: of fact, and they get a lot of state and

306
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: city subsidies when that happens, or they get a tax

307
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 1: abatement from us, which means they don't pay full taxes.

308
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: They pay a pilot or a payment in leewer taxes.

309
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: And if they if we grant them that, then in

310
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 1: turn they have to hire a certain percentage of new

311
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 1: Rakers and that's usually like forty percent. But what we're

312
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 1: doing now is we're working above that forty percent, telling

313
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,520

Speaker 1: a host of other things. Like I said that we're

340
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: all trying to put under one hub and that's just

341
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 1: based on that thing. Uh. He just did his State

342
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 1: of the City address last week. It was crazy, Like

343
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I felt the energy. He had me yelling

344
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: at the end of it, you know what I'm saying.

345
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: And right now he he rebranded Nook and instead of

346
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: brick City, we're going towards nor three point zero now.

347
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 1: So I'm trying to get that wrapped around my head

348
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 1: right now. So y'all gonna start seeing a lot of

349
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 1: Nork three point Oh. But you know, I know he

350
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 1: can tell you point oh. Well, it's it's what we

351
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: talked about. The millennials, the the young youngsters that out

352
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: here that use the iPad, the internet, that that want amenities,

353
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: that want space, and you know, we're creating an opportunity

354
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: using the infrastructure that we have under the ground the

355
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: fiber optic cables to create Wi Fi in the city,

356
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 1: free Wi Fi in public places. It's taking the city

357
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 1: to the to the next level, right, So creating more

358
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: jobs for people using the manufacturing that we talked about,

359
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 1: building quality housing to turn Newark into a place, uh

360
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: that you would want to live at, you know, a

361
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 1: destination city that people want to come to, uh and

362
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: keeping the same people in it at the same time,

363
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 1: so not throwing people out, training them to be a

364
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: part of a new Newark, a newer three point zero.

365
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 1: Like you know, you get a new video video games,

366
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 1: it's the new video game. It's better than the old ones.

367
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: So the whole concept of newer three point oh is

368
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 1: this is Newark at the next level, in the next century, bigger, better, brighter,

369
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 1: batter You think it's a negative connotation with the brick

370
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: city term, I do. I mean, well, I think it's

371
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: outlived as usefulness. Really, you know, at the end, when

372
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 1: I was a kid, I was brick city all the way.

373
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: You know, you know, it made you feel rugged, tough,

374
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: you know, I'm from NewYork. That's what's up. And it's

375
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 1: really more about because we had so many projects in

376
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: the city more per capita than any city in America,

377
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 1: you know, as a matter of fact. That's why we

378
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 1: were the brick city, and everybody felt gritty and grimy

379
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: about that. So we're not that anymore. We moved on.

380
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: A lot of those projects are torn down. We moved

381
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: into the next, next generation, next opportunities. Well not really.

382
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: So we're trying to advance the city without getting rid

383
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 1: of the people. What I said, we don't want to

384
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: get rid of new Ark because we love the people,

385
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 1: their families. We like JD and Rod Digger and all

386
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 1: those folks. They from Newark, you know, Mike Jordan, they

387
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: went to the same high school. New York has a

388
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: lot of great people. You know, we don't highlight them,

389
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 1: and we're trying to highlight them now so the kids

390
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: can see we got great people that came from lived

391
00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 1: on your same block, living in Rafton the Avenue. Now

392
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: and they start it's doing all kinds of things. You well,

393
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 1: but yeah, but she heard her. You know yet Irvington,

394
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 1: all of those East Irvington and Nook, they all we

395
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 1: all consider that one s you know pretty much. So

396
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,199
Speaker 1: now besides being man, is there a bigger run that

397
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 1: you after you finish your New York duties that you

398
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:26,200

Speaker 1: I feel good and in the seat driving a bus

400
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: in New York, you know it. It feels good for me.

401
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 1: It's the city of my birth, I was born and raised.

402
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 1: You know, it's nothing. There's no better job in the

414
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: good for these people to see other people. Like if

00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 1: you go to Atlanta, they see Ludacris, they see Gez,

416

418
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,560

425

426
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,120
