Speaker 1: That little boy got off, didn't he not guilty? Mm hmm,
Speaker 1: what a shocker? Ho politicks, y'all. It's so little right now,
Speaker 1: little politics, y'all. So look, there are a number of
Speaker 1: great African American proverbs handed down to us by our griots,
Speaker 1: one of which is, oh hell no, you got me
Speaker 1: fucked up. That's one of them. But that's not what
Speaker 1: I want to talk about. The one I want to
Speaker 1: talk about today is the deep sigh is a part
Speaker 1: of the proverb. So I started over for you. We
Speaker 1: tried to tell you. We tried to tell you. I
Speaker 1: know I did, because I know how white this worked,
Speaker 1: and I understand our justice system. So I'm referring to
Speaker 1: your little young shooter, Kyle Rittenhouse, who um ain't not guilty,
Speaker 1: And you know what what you want me to say?
Speaker 1: The boy got off, he got off. You know it's
Speaker 1: this little, a little crying session, you know what I'm
Speaker 1: saying a little, a little self defense. You feel me
Speaker 1: like that mug worked. And I've been trying to tell y'all,
Speaker 1: of course it's gonna work because he knows something that
Speaker 1: I've been trying to tell y'all is they ain't gonna
Speaker 1: do ship this like y'all ain't gonna do it, ain't
Speaker 1: nothing gonna happen to it. And y'all know the victims
Speaker 1: was white people, right like. And it's funny. I don't
Speaker 1: don't hear y'all worried about no white on white crime,
Speaker 1: you know, saying you know how silly that sound? Now
Speaker 1: when you talk about black on black you see how
Speaker 1: silly it sound. He he murdered two white people. And
Speaker 1: I see his supporters that are always doing about the
Speaker 1: What about the crime in Chicago? Why aren't you worried
Speaker 1: about young Dolph? Like, why don't you worried about white
Speaker 1: all white crime? Then it is. I say this so
Speaker 1: many times because I feel like y'all ain't appreciating, And
Speaker 1: I hope this little not guilty verdict helps you appreciate
Speaker 1: what I'm trying to tell you. People broke into the
Speaker 1: Capitol building, set on elected officials desks with guns and
Speaker 1: and zip ties and moose heads and foods, just went
Speaker 1: home and went back to work like y'all not gonna
Speaker 1: do shit. And this is what I'm trying to That
Speaker 1: little boy turned them tears all. That was some of
Speaker 1: the most hilariously we all that. That was hilarious. I listen,
Speaker 1: I very rarely cry about people's pain. And I say
Speaker 1: rarely because sometimes I do. I'm sorry, I ain't all
Speaker 1: the ways saved. That's that's another black another Black proverb.
Speaker 1: I ain't all always save. Lords still working on me.
Speaker 1: That's a terrible thing to say. But that little boy
Speaker 1: got on that stand and tried to squeeze out some tears,
Speaker 1: and I'm looking at it and I'm like, this is
Speaker 1: gonna work just like last week. I tell you some
Speaker 1: of these people and it's in this feeling froggy episode,
Speaker 1: they're gonna be able to actually get off in defending
Speaker 1: themselves because that's just that's just how it works. Now.
Speaker 1: For this episode, it was very easy for me to
Speaker 1: turn this into just a venting session and just sort
Speaker 1: of like see see see, and just kind of work
Speaker 1: myself into a frenzy um. But I'm saving that for
Speaker 1: the group text this situation. Listen, I want to make
Speaker 1: a couple of cases for us and also want to
Speaker 1: put in perspective what could be going on in carts
Speaker 1: and minds is uh, some of the black people you
Speaker 1: may know, because it's it's what we keep trying to
Speaker 1: tell you white supremacy is not necessarily just about the color.
Speaker 1: It's a system. It's not white people as much as
Speaker 1: it's whiteness. In this case is like this is well,
Speaker 1: this is what we're trying to say it it's a
Speaker 1: structure of power. Is you do you understand what we're
Speaker 1: trying to say, Like it protects itself. And I don't
Speaker 1: know if y'all getting it. Here's the thing. One would
Speaker 1: think that after hundreds of years and thousands of examples,
Speaker 1: thousands of cases, that something like this situation wouldn't be
Speaker 1: so shocking. In case you don't know, in Kenosha, Wisconsin,
Speaker 1: last year at this young little seventeen year old boy
Speaker 1: had his mama follow me drive him down to Kenosha
Speaker 1: where there were some protests happening around the shooting of
Speaker 1: a black man who didn't die, but you know it
Speaker 1: was it was around their shooting. He was going down
Speaker 1: there too humongous air quotes, uh, protect businesses and to
Speaker 1: according to him, offer medical aid. So he goes down
Speaker 1: there with his you know, salt semi automatic rifle, this
Speaker 1: big old gun strapped to his little teeny chest and
Speaker 1: went out there and was you know, defending property, and
Speaker 1: in the defense of property shot and killed two guys. Uh,
Speaker 1: and his defense was well self defense. I was down
Speaker 1: there doing good work and these guys attacked me. Whatever. Anyway,
Speaker 1: I don't want to adjudicate the case again. But situation again,
Speaker 1: what a shocker. The kid got off not guilty, right, Uh.
Speaker 1: And obviously he's out of cop. This isn't a police officer,
Speaker 1: you know, So when these are officers involved shootings, obviously
Speaker 1: there's a there's a particular sort of standard where we
Speaker 1: would think that we would hold a police officer too,
Speaker 1: which you're right, it is not the same standard I
Speaker 1: would hold uh, common citizen too. However, to go out
Speaker 1: of your way to another city to quote unquote defend
Speaker 1: property with your weapon, it's it's I don't want to
Speaker 1: adjudicate the case again. The point is a little boy
Speaker 1: got off. Also, as stated before, adding an interesting socio
Speaker 1: cultural wrinkle to this, although it shouldn't be a wrinkle
Speaker 1: at all, is that these aren't dead people of color.
Speaker 1: There dead white people. It's a it's different. It's the same,
Speaker 1: but it's different. It's kind of the No, it's different.
Speaker 1: It's different. Now, my mama, don't listen to the show
Speaker 1: because I cuts too much in it, and I'm still
Speaker 1: still a little embarrassing cussing in front of my mama.
Speaker 1: Were black people? Um, she cuts in front of me though. Anyway,
Speaker 1: my grandma different story. She cutsing it out quick anyway, Um,
Speaker 1: she don't even know the topic. I just went over
Speaker 1: there and I was just talking to her, like, hey, mom,
Speaker 1: now that little white, that little cow he got off
Speaker 1: and she said, she said exactly what I said, Well,
Speaker 1: what a shocker. I'm not surprised. And then she said,
Speaker 1: you know what they're doing right now, all them little
Speaker 1: they're out there locking it loading right now, and they
Speaker 1: hit little folks they feel to turn up. That's what
Speaker 1: my mom said, because she goes and because that's what
Speaker 1: this that's what this trial taught him, is like we
Speaker 1: all right. So in her own way, she just explained,
Speaker 1: y'all ain't gonna do ship, and what happened when y'all
Speaker 1: don't do ship is fools read it as a green light.
Speaker 1: I don't even have to tell her that that's what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. We tried to tell you. The hood knows.
Speaker 1: My mama knew the topic. I didn't even have to
Speaker 1: explain that she already knew. They don't trying to tell you.
Speaker 1: We already knew. We tried to tell you. If y'all
Speaker 1: don't do ship, it's gonna keep happening. Here's why I say,
Speaker 1: what a shocker. We tried to tell you. It's because
Speaker 1: we've seen these aces before. Oftentimes I'm gonna jump subjects here,
Speaker 1: oftentimes black people and maybe abroad, maybe in a broader sense,
Speaker 1: people of color. I can't speak to any specifics for
Speaker 1: them because that's not my situation. I'm only adjacent to that.
Speaker 1: But I know in our community where we're oftentimes juggling
Speaker 1: multiple crises. Right because, just two days ago from the
Speaker 1: day that I'm recording this, which is the day that
Speaker 1: Kyle got his his not guilty verdict, Young Dolf got murdered.
Speaker 1: Young Dolph is an artist from Memphis who in a
Speaker 1: lot of ways carried that same sort of nipsey hustle
Speaker 1: spirit where he was. He did he never left his hood.
Speaker 1: He did good for his community. He was good out there.
Speaker 1: He by family man, you know, wife, two kids, by
Speaker 1: a probably of course, you know, music's ratchet, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, But he ain't no more ratchet than
Speaker 1: you know, any of your country Western singers. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. But I'm not here again to argue
Speaker 1: over whether a man deserved to be murdered because his
Speaker 1: music is ratchet. That's not what we're here to talk about.
Speaker 1: What I am here to talk about is a loss
Speaker 1: of life and that's happening within our own hoods, Things
Speaker 1: that we need to take care of, things that we
Speaker 1: are grieving within our own communities, about trying to amongst
Speaker 1: each other be better because we can't whenever somebody starts, um,
Speaker 1: you know, advancing and start thinking different, talking different, moving
Speaker 1: different somehow or another because of our situation. Listen, we
Speaker 1: could talk about the criminal justice system. We could talk
Speaker 1: about capitalism, issues of poverty that pushes people of color
Speaker 1: into these environments who choose that like their only choices. Violence,
Speaker 1: why you know, the psychological effects of poverty and why
Speaker 1: gangs become what they are and why you feel like
Speaker 1: that person is your We can talk about all that.
Speaker 1: At the end of the day, a black man murdered
Speaker 1: another black man and it is an absolute tragedy that
Speaker 1: we're still trying to untangle and figure out, and especially
Speaker 1: over some raps ship which is what makes it even
Speaker 1: more stupid. I think we're not aware of that, that
Speaker 1: we're not aware of black on black crime. You think
Speaker 1: we don't know if and that it's you can't. This
Speaker 1: is why it's another reason why it's bullshit when you
Speaker 1: try to weaponize that phrase because people shoot who close
Speaker 1: to him like this, it's a it's an absurd statistic
Speaker 1: and we know it's disingenuous because exhibit A Kyle Rittenhouse.
Speaker 1: But yes, seeing ourselves shoot each other said is fucking ridiculous.
Speaker 1: We're tired of it all the way back to Tupac
Speaker 1: Biggie jam Master j Bigail. We're tired of this ship
Speaker 1: Nipsey like, we're tired of it. We hate it. This
Speaker 1: all happening at the same time that our brother Julius
Speaker 1: Jones got removed from the death penalty, which is a
Speaker 1: moment of celebration. So you're like, Okay, there's this tragedy
Speaker 1: and then there's this celebration, But then the celebration is
Speaker 1: still kind of weird because he's just getting life in prison.
Speaker 1: When the parole board two times recommended we need to
Speaker 1: let this little boy go. He needs a new trial.
Speaker 1: There was mad evidence that was withheld that showed that
Speaker 1: that little boy had a perfect alibi he supposedly committed
Speaker 1: to murder in that. I mean, the little boy wouldn't
Speaker 1: even there and he was about to be murdered. So
Speaker 1: it's weird how when you in in our situation, we
Speaker 1: have to celebrate every win we get, and this is
Speaker 1: the bare minimum. That little boy shouldn't be in jail period.
Speaker 1: Little boy he had grown man now forty one years old,
Speaker 1: been in jail since he was seventeen for something he
Speaker 1: didn't even do, or at least they didn't prove he did,
Speaker 1: right you, So there's you're holding those two things. I
Speaker 1: haven't even got to the armad auvery case where that
Speaker 1: defense attorney was like, we don't want to know Black
Speaker 1: Pastor's coming down here. As another side note, I feel
Speaker 1: like black Church has been the conscious of our nation
Speaker 1: for years, maybe the whole time, because demand that was
Speaker 1: outside leading some of the charges. Uh In advocating for
Speaker 1: Julius Jones. There was a black creature out there, tied
Speaker 1: himself up the chains. He was like, if you need
Speaker 1: a body, just take mind. You gotta kill somebody, kill me,
Speaker 1: Let that little boy go. Of course, it was an
Speaker 1: act of protest. Of course it's high drama, but that's
Speaker 1: the point of it. We're putting our bodies on the line.
Speaker 1: I know people directly, my boy consciously, Miamie jb that
Speaker 1: worked tirelessly, Joshua Duke boys tirelessly on this Julius case.
Speaker 1: I'm so happy for him that that little boy alive,
Speaker 1: a grown man alive, but life in prison for something
Speaker 1: you can eat. He didn't even do it. So you
Speaker 1: got the arm on every case whatever. That man was
Speaker 1: murdered and we saw it. I listened to the testimonium
Speaker 1: of the white boys say, uh, he grabbed my gun
Speaker 1: and I got scared. And I still, honestly don't understand
Speaker 1: that defense because I'm like, uh, I think he felt
Speaker 1: when you pulled it on it? Who you think was
Speaker 1: really scared? You feel? But that's again, I don't want
Speaker 1: this to be a venting session. I'm trying to set
Speaker 1: up something. These are things we're carrying all the time.
Speaker 1: Right My patron, Saint James Balden was talking about to
Speaker 1: be black in America is to be at a full
Speaker 1: constant rage just right under the surface, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. I guess it's just that's just like right
Speaker 1: under your cool, isn't is a tempest that's just always there.
Speaker 1: You feel me? Uh, My homeboy Kendrick says that niggas
Speaker 1: from l A always just randomly using big words and
Speaker 1: I just did it again. We're just like a tempest anyway.
Speaker 1: This is why we say our music and Black Boy
Speaker 1: Joy and Black Girl Fly and all this stuff is
Speaker 1: like it's part of our protest, because it's part of
Speaker 1: our our rebellion. Because what's hovering under us is this
Speaker 1: impending dread and the years and years of receipts of
Speaker 1: looking at this Kyle rittenhouse case and going that little
Speaker 1: white boy gonna get off right and and listen, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna come back to the thing we tried to tell you.
Speaker 1: He's gonna get away with it. Now this on our case,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I feel like because of like the
Speaker 1: free Barrabbit's joint that uh, they may give us them
Speaker 1: and because that judges I'm getting ahead of myself with that.
Speaker 1: Judges are different judges in this one. But uh, I
Speaker 1: don't know if I could call it for that one.
Speaker 1: I think you know, but this this Kyle one, Oh,
Speaker 1: I knew y'all ain't gonna do ship. I didn't told
Speaker 1: y'all this a number of times on this show. Don't
Speaker 1: nothing happen to them? You know that little boy raised
Speaker 1: upwards of a hundred and seventy five thousand, maybe even
Speaker 1: more on a on a go fund me when he
Speaker 1: got into legal troubles. That stay one. That's stay boy.
Speaker 1: That's the boy. Now, let me make a case for
Speaker 1: all of us. Uh, I'm gonna make a case first
Speaker 1: to the hood, and then I want every It's like
Speaker 1: so cratic method. I'm talking to the inner circle, but
Speaker 1: I want the rest of us to really listen, especially
Speaker 1: if you're in a position of power or privilege, or
Speaker 1: you have access to things that us and inside of
Speaker 1: this circle and got access to. Let me break it
Speaker 1: down after this break who I did a I did
Speaker 1: a product break check me out? Yeah, all right, yo,
Speaker 1: check it. I'm sorry, I'm chewing rice. It's disgusting. Um,
Speaker 1: I'm coping. I think it's important to remember when you're
Speaker 1: looking at these two particular cases, the Kyle Raynownce case
Speaker 1: and the I'm on Overy case, it's the behavior of
Speaker 1: the judges why I was absolutely convinced that cal Nnownce
Speaker 1: was going to get off was the judge, and all
Speaker 1: the way back to the beginning that the judge wouldn't
Speaker 1: let the two dead men be called victim because it's
Speaker 1: going to sway the jury. So you're telling me the
Speaker 1: two dudes that died aren't victims. Remember I told you before.
Speaker 1: Most of the time, when it comes to cases like this,
Speaker 1: the shooter is not on trial, the victim is. Are
Speaker 1: they worthy to be called victims? Even when the victims
Speaker 1: ain't necessarily black or brown, because the power is protecting itself. Basically,
Speaker 1: these these these victims, they they sided with the wrong people.
Speaker 1: They didn't side with power. They sided with the marginalized,
Speaker 1: which I mean, according to the system, the power structure,
Speaker 1: you've become an OP. So I'm gonna treat you like
Speaker 1: a OP. I'm gonna treat you how we treat the ops.
Speaker 1: Because again we're not talking about like people were talking
Speaker 1: about whiteness. Need please understand the difference, Like it's so
Speaker 1: important a lot to look this is a side note,
Speaker 1: but it's very important that you understand this. It's like
Speaker 1: when someone talks about privilege, specifically white privilege, your knee
Speaker 1: jerk reaction is like, well, I'm I come from poverty too,
Speaker 1: And I'm like, Okay, that's classism. Nobody is saying y'all
Speaker 1: ain't came from some struggle. I know some real dirty,
Speaker 1: dirty gutter ratchet as hell white people who came from
Speaker 1: the mud, like more mud than I came from. That's
Speaker 1: not what I'm talking about. We're talking about a system.
Speaker 1: Oh I forgot. We're not allowed to teach this stuff
Speaker 1: because it makes white people feel bad. My bad said,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna call him there. I'm gonna call them writers.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna call him protesters. I'm gonna call them We're
Speaker 1: gonna call them agitators. But we're not gonna call them victims.
Speaker 1: Hear how that hear how their lives, dignity was stripped
Speaker 1: from them and they already dead. They shouldn't have been
Speaker 1: running with the ops. That's how we treat the ops.
Speaker 1: Ops is in everybody that's not part of this power structure.
Speaker 1: I was like, holy, gonna get off. It is the
Speaker 1: dread of any black or brown person who's been caught
Speaker 1: in the system. Two run into a judge that has
Speaker 1: a complete implicit bias about you. The problem is the
Speaker 1: bias about us is oftentimes against us. What we witnessed
Speaker 1: was an implicit bias, but in the favor of the defendant.
Speaker 1: Y'all ain't see that. Man, how dope would it? Could
Speaker 1: you imagine? I was texting some of the obviously is
Speaker 1: how dope would it be for you to be on trial?
Speaker 1: And the judge you walk in and the judges like
Speaker 1: judges like neighborhood? Like the judge did you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying? The judge like rapping the block? He looking
Speaker 1: at you like, hey, hommy, when all this is over, man,
Speaker 1: you got come over, Maybe play space, play some dominoes.
Speaker 1: You're good on me, you know what I'm saying. And
Speaker 1: then and then when you start showing some emotion, he like, hey,
Speaker 1: I think everybody should chill. Let them let the young
Speaker 1: homie gets like, how great would it be? You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying if you walk in now? Instead we
Speaker 1: walk in the judges like pull up your pants, son,
Speaker 1: So what gang are you from? What bad choices are you? Like? Man,
Speaker 1: First of all, we all do gang bang. Number one,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Number two you don't even
Speaker 1: know me. We ain't even made no case yet, you
Speaker 1: feel me? So we walk in with the opposite bias,
Speaker 1: that Kyle guy. But wouldn't it be nice. Here's the
Speaker 1: thing you want to say, Well, well you know your
Speaker 1: judges are are supposed to be impartial. Well they're humans,
Speaker 1: they're not this we we tried to tell you. It's
Speaker 1: the system, the whole thing. So number one, the judge
Speaker 1: was like, you can't call them victims. I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: this case over that little boy. They have a little
Speaker 1: boyfriend to get off. Then he did the little water
Speaker 1: works and then his mama cried, and then they was like,
Speaker 1: I think we need to take a little break. And
Speaker 1: then man's is on his phone and it's funny watching
Speaker 1: like lawyer. If you know lawyers, like if you're friends
Speaker 1: with any at how weird it reflects that is, or
Speaker 1: if you follow any on any social media. They're not
Speaker 1: surprised at all by this man. They like, listen, this
Speaker 1: is how it is, yo, yo, yo. Judge is a
Speaker 1: luck of a draw. That man got seventy two cases
Speaker 1: after this. That lady got nine and nine other cases
Speaker 1: after this. That lady, that man is a person. They
Speaker 1: live in a city. They got opinions. I don't know
Speaker 1: why y'all think. Of course they do This is what
Speaker 1: we mean by like, yo, the case was stacked against us.
Speaker 1: We got an implicit bias. The justice system wasn't fair
Speaker 1: because the judge already decided, you're gonna look at that
Speaker 1: car rid Now's case. I think that judge the already
Speaker 1: know was he not stacking them cards in that boy favor?
Speaker 1: Just it was televised, we saw it. That man. That
Speaker 1: man said, hey, pick a name out of hat. You
Speaker 1: want to choose which one of these jurors stays that
Speaker 1: the defendant like, are y'all y'all homies? Like y'all really homies?
Speaker 1: So here's my case. District judges they elected, well indirectly,
Speaker 1: let me let me impact this. Uh, District judges are appointed,
Speaker 1: but they're appointed by it's pretty convoluted, but they're appointed
Speaker 1: by our elected officials. So ultimately they're elected. But the
Speaker 1: way that the separation of powers is set up, we're
Speaker 1: not supposed to directly, they're not supposed to um campaign boom.
Speaker 1: But the people that put them in place are the
Speaker 1: ones that are campaigning, and we get to choose that.
Speaker 1: So we gotta pay attention to our ballots, especially our
Speaker 1: local ones. Remember I told you to think about Mitch.
Speaker 1: The game Mitch was playing had a man's man's put
Speaker 1: too Hondo judges on benches, on lower benches all over
Speaker 1: the country. Now, I don't know who elected this man.
Speaker 1: I ain't do that much homework, but I tell you what,
Speaker 1: somebody we elected appointed that person, and look where it
Speaker 1: got us. That's what I'm saying. I'm gonna make that case.
Speaker 1: So yo, the voting of yet your local, your your
Speaker 1: your Congress, it this way, it plays out. It plays
Speaker 1: out there, not just on the things you see on
Speaker 1: the news, plays out there. Does that you follow me?
Speaker 1: District attorneys, they're elected. What this means to me is
Speaker 1: in your legal case or not in your legal cases
Speaker 1: and your when your ballots come, when your local balants come,
Speaker 1: I'm asking you to do a little more homework on
Speaker 1: who is being elected to those to that bench, to
Speaker 1: the school board. What this means to me is in
Speaker 1: your legal case or not in your legal cases when
Speaker 1: your ballots come, when your local balance come, I'm asking
Speaker 1: you to do a little more homework on who is
Speaker 1: being elected to those to that bench, to these school boards,
Speaker 1: to these district offices. We have a say that that
Speaker 1: type of implicit bias shouldn't exist somebody that can sway
Speaker 1: a case like that. You think that man ain't sway
Speaker 1: that case. So here, So so here's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: We need to pay more attention to that. Now, let
Speaker 1: me push you even further. Some of you young shooters
Speaker 1: who are activists now out here getting radicalized by cools
Speaker 1: on media. Let me ask you this, Hey, what's we're
Speaker 1: going to law school though? What if you got on
Speaker 1: that bench? What if that was your way of advocating. Now,
Speaker 1: if you listen to the episode me and Robert Evans
Speaker 1: I talked about, I understand how problematic that is. Like,
Speaker 1: I'm why would I jump into a seeking ship that
Speaker 1: I already know sucks? Right, I'm saying, but in the meantime,
Speaker 1: niggas is still on trial, murders are still getting off.
Speaker 1: It's in the meantime before we could tear it all down,
Speaker 1: burn it all down. I mean, in the meantime, some
Speaker 1: of us got court cases. It'd be really dope to pull,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Jannicia Jackson as my judge.
Speaker 1: It'd be dope to pull Juan Carlo Perez as my judge.
Speaker 1: Because I'm gonna look at Wan Carlo Wan Carlo like
Speaker 1: oschool On from East Low's, I understand the nuances. Now
Speaker 1: let me judge this case accordingly. Because Nick, if you
Speaker 1: wil and you wilding like the cake like I may
Speaker 1: have quoted this man before uh riley Um from Boondocks. Hey, listen,
Speaker 1: every nigga in jail a Nelson Mandela, some of y'all
Speaker 1: niggas broken the law. I cite the Young Dolf situation.
Speaker 1: Who's that who's that football player? We just saw that
Speaker 1: through his lady. What's that boy's name? I'm asking y'all
Speaker 1: like you listening, don't go look at this video. But
Speaker 1: as a former Jet New York Jet Smack just ball
Speaker 1: baled is fist up and punched his lady and then
Speaker 1: threw her into a TV. That you need to put
Speaker 1: that nigga up under the jail. You wild like you
Speaker 1: broke the law. Like far be it from me to
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna again. Like I said, I don't slander
Speaker 1: black men in public. But wrong is wrong, my nigga.
Speaker 1: Like you you you bugging? Cause what you want me
Speaker 1: to say? You bugging them? Two little boys that shot
Speaker 1: Young Dolf? They but what you what you want me
Speaker 1: to say, I understand the situation. Two can be the
Speaker 1: both can be true. I understand the situation and needsy
Speaker 1: to go to jail. That's a murder. It don't bring
Speaker 1: me joy. It sucks. I would love to see some
Speaker 1: more restorative justice. That's my hope. I'm trying to tear
Speaker 1: a form a new world. But until then, it would
Speaker 1: be really dope if we had better judges on the bench.
Speaker 1: My second case I want to make to you, I
Speaker 1: think I said it before, is jury summons is again.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna reiterate this. I might be sitting in a
Speaker 1: place of privilege where I make my own schedule. Um,
Speaker 1: my income may a probably not be affected too bad
Speaker 1: if I had to like sit on a case um
Speaker 1: for like a week or two. I understand that that's unique.
Speaker 1: I also understand that the people that make time, that
Speaker 1: make time for this are the people that end up
Speaker 1: sitting on a case like kyle rittenhouse. They make time
Speaker 1: for it. Could you imagine if if it was one
Speaker 1: of us that was in that in that deliberation, it
Speaker 1: was just like, I am not budging that little boy guilty.
Speaker 1: I looked at that, I looked at the evidence. He guilty.
Speaker 1: You're not gonna You're not you need a unanimous We're
Speaker 1: gonna stay here forever. I'm not gonna let that man.
Speaker 1: Like could you imagine, Like, can you imagine the type
Speaker 1: of freedom fighter you would be? Like nobody would know.
Speaker 1: But that's the beauty of like really being a freedom fighter.
Speaker 1: Don't nobody know. Ain't no real case, ain't no real tags.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, You get for for a
Speaker 1: lot of the lot of the work a lot of
Speaker 1: us do. Even as a side note, there's something that
Speaker 1: like I kind of stepped back a lot of ways
Speaker 1: from being an organizer in the sense that as I
Speaker 1: became more of a public figure, I didn't want nobody
Speaker 1: to just follow some sort of personality cult, Like don't
Speaker 1: just be here because you're a fan of me. Be
Speaker 1: here because it's the right thing to do, you know,
Speaker 1: be here because this is the right cause, not just
Speaker 1: because you like my music. So I'm like, I had
Speaker 1: to learn how to push the line different ways, you know,
Speaker 1: because I don't want nobody to just be I here
Speaker 1: because I want them to be radicalized on their own.
Speaker 1: You feel me, let me just give you the nuggets
Speaker 1: and you find your place in there, But don't just
Speaker 1: show up because I'm here, because that won't last. You
Speaker 1: feel me. I might get on your nerves one day.
Speaker 1: I may have a hot take one day, and then
Speaker 1: the movement suffers. You feel me, And that's not what
Speaker 1: I'm looking for. But what what I what I will
Speaker 1: do is I'm must I say yes to jury duty.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna show up because it's until we could of
Speaker 1: a system. It's the only one we got. So those
Speaker 1: are my two main cases. Like, yo, you know, three
Speaker 1: really a like pay attention to who we vote into
Speaker 1: the benches and then maybe even considered going into law.
Speaker 1: And then three yo, get on the juries like yo,
Speaker 1: get on the jury's fam like I mean, and as
Speaker 1: much as you can, Yo, get on the juries, because
Speaker 1: listen when these people look at us breaking into the capitals,
Speaker 1: shooting people on something like I'm protecting business and then
Speaker 1: sit on sit on the stand like shut the funk,
Speaker 1: y'all ain't gonna do shit? What hey, hey, what we're
Speaker 1: doing after this? Looking at the judge like, yo, what
Speaker 1: we're doing. We're gonna barbecue, bro, We're gonna barbecue. We're
Speaker 1: gonna kick it after this. So when they say y'all
Speaker 1: ain't gonna do ship. You can bring in the other
Speaker 1: African American proverb, Oh you got me fucked up, y'all.
