1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,640 Speaker 1: Native Land Pod is a production of iHeartRadio in partnership 2 00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:05,319 Speaker 1: with Reason Choice Media. 3 00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:08,719 Speaker 2: Welcome, Welcome, Welcome, Welcome, Welcome, Welcome, Welcome. 4 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:13,560 Speaker 1: Okay, everyone, welcome home. Welcome home, y'all. As we normally say, 5 00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 1: this is a very very serious day. There's we're having 6 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:23,119 Speaker 1: on those every single day in a very serious and 7 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:26,440 Speaker 1: treacherous time. I want to open today's show with a 8 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 1: very important historical clip because I think it provides context 9 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:32,199 Speaker 1: for where we are. Let's roll. 10 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 2: It's disrespected person in America is the black woman. The 11 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 2: most unprotected woman A person in America is the black woman. 12 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 2: The most neglected person in America is the black woman. Say, 13 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 2: if the white man will do whatever is necessary to 14 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 2: see that his woman gets respect and protection, then you 15 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 2: and I will never be recognized as men until we 16 00:00:58,200 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 2: stand up like men. 17 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 1: And that is just it. What is required of men 18 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 1: in this hour to stand up for the most disrespected 19 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 1: person in America. And so I think where we have 20 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: to really begin today is, uh, you know this question. 21 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 1: I saw I was flagged earlier that Stephen A. Smith 22 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: put our podcast on his talking about where we discussed 23 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: his critique of Jasmine Crockett Congressman Jasmine Crockett and I'm 24 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: this special episode of his podcast. 25 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 3: He says, can we be grown ups and deal with 26 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,919 Speaker 3: what the real issue is involving what I said? 27 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 2: Willie d. 28 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,559 Speaker 1: Roland, Martin Bakari. 29 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 2: Sellers and Angela Rai, who I have profound respect for. 30 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 2: How's it disrespectful to say what I said? Could you 31 00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 2: just disagree? 32 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: Could we just say, yo, I disagree with you. Here's 33 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: why he resents the fact that people challenged his critique 34 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: of Jasmine as disrespectful. It sounded like he resented the 35 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: fact that people fought his challenge sounded in some way misogynistic. 36 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 1: And so where that leaves us is trying to understand 37 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:25,519 Speaker 1: why there may be a road where we are missing 38 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 1: each other, where the positions are not quite aligned. And 39 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: so where I want to lean in is first on facts. 40 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 1: When Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett was just on with us just 41 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:41,959 Speaker 1: weeks ago prior to the government shutdown, right before that vote, 42 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett talked about having to go in special 43 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 1: entrances when she's going to public events, having to go 44 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: get fitted for a bullet proof vest I talked about 45 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: that on our main episode this week, and I want 46 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 1: to draw your attention back to it because of what 47 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: Malcolm X told us, which is the black woman is 48 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: the most unprotected person in America. So to me, if 49 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: someone is getting death threats, if someone is championing the 50 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,679 Speaker 1: voices of the people, those who can't say the thing 51 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: that needs to be said, one of the things that 52 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: you all said to me often when I saw you 53 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: like I love seeing you on CNN, or I love 54 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: seeing you on MSNBC, or I love seeing you on 55 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 1: Native Lampard, you speak for me and win these voices, 56 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: not just mine, not just Jasmines, but Joy and Tiff 57 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: and Sonny and Aaron Haynes and Britney Pagnett Cunningham and 58 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 1: Jamel and Carrie. When those voices raise up and they 59 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: speak on behalf of someone who feels marginalized, unheard, and invisible, 60 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: those become the voices that we seek to for comfort 61 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: because they're saying something in spaces where we've not been 62 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: invited to or have not been allowed to speak our truth. 63 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: Nine times out of ten black women sit in spaces 64 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: in corporate America where their voices cannot speak truth to 65 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: power because they could risk losing their jobs. Nine times 66 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: out of ten, when black women are hired to work 67 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 1: for the federal government or the state government, or county 68 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: or local government in some other form, they cannot use 69 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: their voices to speak truth to power for the risk 70 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 1: of losing their jobs. That's something that we know to 71 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: be true. Yet every now and then someone decides that 72 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 1: their truth being spoken is so important that it is 73 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: worth risking the opportunity and perhaps even risking their lives. 74 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: And that's where we find ourselves now. Like there are 75 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,919 Speaker 1: black women who are saying, I'll catch the case, or 76 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 1: i will catch the heat, or I'll deal with the punishment. 77 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: It don't mean that I won't be in a leadership position, 78 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: Jasmine Crockett, Right, It'll mean that I might get demoted. 79 00:04:55,880 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 1: But my truth deserves to have a platform because our 80 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: lives are on the line. So when you're dealing with 81 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 1: when your opponent is someone who will say low IQ 82 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: such and such, which is how Y'all's commander in chief, 83 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: Y'all's president chooses to address not just black women but 84 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: black people, you have an obligation to continue to speak 85 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 1: truth to power even when he basically is calling you dumb. 86 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: And that is something that we don't take lightly. It's 87 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 1: something that we commended, something that we deem as courageous. 88 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: And that is why Jasmine Crockett's approval numbers right now, 89 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: rival only Barack Obama's at his height. It's because she's 90 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: speaking truth to power. Now, there are some things that 91 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 1: I wish my dear sister didn't say. I wish you 92 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:44,919 Speaker 1: didn't call the commander chief out of his name. I 93 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 1: call him y'all's president. But I understand that as a tactic, 94 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 1: and more than y'all agree with her than you agree 95 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: with me. And I understand because we're watching this man 96 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: terrorize the country, and she is one of the lone 97 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 1: soldiers who continues to speak up and say what is 98 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: wrong to call a thing a thing. This is not 99 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: some random hood rat check as someone have you to 100 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: believe on their platforms using language that is not only 101 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: dangerous but involves racist troopes. This is someone who has 102 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: a law degree. She's a former civil rights attorney. This 103 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 1: is someone who was a state representative. This is someone 104 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: who in Texas looked for folks to hold the line. 105 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: Last time folks needed to leave the state to ensure 106 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: that the Texas Republicans did not pass legislation that was 107 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: antithetical to our interests. She is that person. She is 108 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: that person. She is the one who is introducing legislation 109 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: to ensure that our needs are protected. She has introduced 110 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: several bills in Congress. One that I regularly tell that 111 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: I'm so proud of her for doing is called the 112 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: clear id Act. The clear id Act would hold to 113 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 1: account the law and horsemen that are going into our 114 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:06,919 Speaker 1: communities right now, terrorizing our citizens, and they're doing it masked. 115 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: There was a time where this country honored legislation that 116 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: was passed a force the ku Kluks plan to identify 117 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: themselves now, right in time for this terroristic activity under 118 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: the guise of the state of under the guys of 119 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: state sanctioned violence. Really, they're now able to be masked again. 120 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: So that is what we're up against. So again, Jasmine 121 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 1: Crockett is a sitting member of Congress. She is one 122 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: that does not just speak about her work, but she 123 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: is regularly booked because she cuts through, because she speaks 124 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: for people who have been marginalized and left out, because 125 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: she is a fighter for those who don't have any 126 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: fight left in them. She is someone who not only 127 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: speaks on air when invited, she also goes to committee 128 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: hearings and tors and she provides amendments to bills. She 129 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: introduces those amendments, she argues them in committee markups. Committee 130 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: mark ups is where legislation goes to be negotiated and 131 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: amended before it goes to the House floor. She does 132 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: that work. We watch her do that work. That work 133 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: also goes viral. She does it in committee hearings where 134 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: she's challenging the nonsense that disputes her across from a 135 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: witness table where people have been sworn under oath, Jasmine 136 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: holds them accountable too. So I resent the fact that 137 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: she's being talked about as someone who's just showing up 138 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: for a show. This is someone who is working very 139 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: hard to get the needs of the American people's interests 140 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: met and those of her district. And now, speaking of 141 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: her district, did you know that the Republican State Legislature 142 00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: created a district map for Jasmine Crockett's district where they 143 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: carved her house where she resides out of her district. 144 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 1: Does that sound like a group of people who want 145 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: to work with her? Would you work with someone who 146 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: is calling you out of your name and calling you 147 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: low IQ. Would you work with someone who has people 148 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: in the House of Representatives who are making fun of 149 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: your appearance in Congress? That is actually how we got 150 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: to beach blonde, bad built, butch body, because bleach bond blonde. 151 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: I can't even say it without messing up the allt 152 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:40,599 Speaker 1: to Bees talked about her eyelashes first in a congressional 153 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: hearing oversighting government reform. Look it up, right, So I 154 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,479 Speaker 1: just want us to be very clear about the challenges 155 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 1: ahead and the fact that, yes, the most disrespected and 156 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 1: unprotected person in this country is the black woman. And 157 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: so pardon me for having X right that a black 158 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: man would protect a black woman at least, I mean 159 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 1: that's how things used to be. But pardon me for 160 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: expecting that right? Like, how dare I expect that I 161 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 1: expect that you know that what Republicans few on Fox 162 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: News and in all of their rags would not be 163 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: the facts. I would expect that you would know that 164 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,839 Speaker 1: just because a black woman is tried and gone after 165 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 1: and pursued and maybe even hunted down, like it's been 166 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: said sixteen nineteen, that maybe that's not all the facts. 167 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: So I'm going to turn your attention to another disrespected 168 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: black woman. Her name is Fannie Willis. Fannie Willis is 169 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 1: currently trying is in the fight of her life for 170 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: just saying to the American people, listen, Donald Trump and 171 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: gay an election interference, charged him as such. Then it 172 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 1: became that her character was on the line. Now the 173 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: Department of Justice Donald Trump Donald Trump's Department of Justice 174 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: issued a subpoena for records related to Fannie Wallace's travel history. 175 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 1: If this is not selective prosecution, you all should know 176 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: this from watching our podcast when Marilyn Mosby was targeted 177 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: through selective and malicious prosecution, means, I don't know what 178 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: is this is textbook. This is someone who he sees 179 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: as a political adversary, someone who he sees as someone 180 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: who targeted him, even if the target was rooted in 181 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: a factual challenge of a clear violation of the law. 182 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: This is someone who he has made out to be 183 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: a political enemy. Right, It's not just we don't just 184 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 1: end with Jasmine Crockett and as jd Vance just went 185 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: after Joy read just a week or so ago, We're 186 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: gonna have to in there or with Fannie Willis. Let 187 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: me turn your attention to Lisa Cook. Lisa Cook, the 188 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 1: first black woman to ever serve on the Board of 189 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: Governors for their Federal Reserve. Oh, she was targeted because 190 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: a black woman has a nerve to buy a house 191 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: and child, not just one. She has the nerve to 192 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 1: to one, to have two. She had the nerve to 193 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 1: want to have multiple properties, having done all of this 194 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:29,199 Speaker 1: with her career, wanted to have multiple properties. And so 195 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: they go with the solution in search of a problem 196 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: to try to target Lisa Cook because Lisa Cook hasn't 197 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,199 Speaker 1: been a rubber stamp for Donald Trump, right, so they 198 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: go after Lisa Cook. And right now, the only thing 199 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: keeping Lisa Cook at her job is the fact that 200 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:51,839 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court blocked Donald Trump's attempt to fire her, 201 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: which he does not have the authority to do. And 202 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: now they are just temporarily blocking it. And they plan 203 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: to hear care or arguments in the case involving the 204 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 1: unlawful firing of Lisa Cook in January. So she's got 205 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: a temporary reprieve. We don't know how long the Supreme 206 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 1: Court is gonna act, right, come on, y'all know better 207 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: than that. And then let me take you to Tis 208 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,559 Speaker 1: James for those of you who might have missed it. 209 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: She is the New York State Attorney General. She is 210 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: the person who ensured that Donald Trump, given the fraud 211 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: and the fraudulent activity that he engages in through the 212 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 1: Trump Organization, actually finally faced the consequence since the Supreme 213 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: Court decided to give Donald Trump or criminal immunity. A 214 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: president doesn't just have civil immunity. Now they have criminal 215 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 1: immunity thanks to the Supreme Court's lack of knowledge around 216 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,079 Speaker 1: the Constitution and what actually should be protected. It shouldn't 217 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: be criminal behavior. You take an oath, sir. But fine, 218 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: they give him criminal immunity. And now that means that 219 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 1: every case that he was facing before the Supreme Court ruled, 220 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 1: they just said, oh, you know what, maybe we just 221 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,079 Speaker 1: gotta let it go because these activities happened either when 222 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,439 Speaker 1: he was president or before, so we're gonna release all 223 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: of it. This man who's currently sitting in the White 224 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: House allegedly and with great regularity, violating the emoluments Clause 225 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: taking gifts from foreign countries and foreign adversaries. But this 226 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: person is the same one who wants to come at 227 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 1: yet another black woman for having the nerve to want 228 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 1: to buy multiple properties. Black women buys house, black women 229 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: commits fraud. We've seen that playbook before. We saw it 230 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: with Marilyn Moseby. This is the same thing they did, 231 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: mind you, Marilynd Moseby's mortgage fraud allegation and charge and 232 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: her case around the mortgage fraud charge was thrown out 233 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: on appeal. And here we are again with a paper thin, 234 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: paper thin indictment of Tiss James for buying a home 235 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: where her niece in Norfolk, Virginia could stay. Now, Tiss James, 236 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 1: this case again, this is the New York State's attorney general. 237 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: You would think that folks who are watching someone weaponize 238 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: their power to target their political enemies, you would think 239 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: that there would be agreement. Maybe not bipartisan agreement, there 240 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: has been some, but you would think that at least 241 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: for elected officials in New York, at least for elected 242 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: officials in New York, that there would be agreement, widespread agreement, 243 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: just on that point. Just on that point. Let's roll 244 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: this clip with Andrew Cuomo. 245 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 3: Should the President have gone after Tiss James. 246 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 4: Well, the my point is, and I think this is 247 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 4: nearly uniform. Both sides, Democrats and Republicans believe there's too 248 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 4: much politics in the justice system. 249 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 3: This is what your statement said yesterday. But should the 250 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 3: president have gone after the attorney general? Was he right 251 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 3: to do that? 252 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 4: Well, he will say he didn't go after her. The 253 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 4: prosecutor will say they were just doing justice, which is 254 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 4: what Tis James said about going after President Trump. I'm 255 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 4: just pursuing justice. That's why it's political. 256 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 3: But what do you say. 257 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 4: Neither side should be playing politics. 258 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, your opponent was out there this morning saying that 259 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 3: you won't condemn the president in any sort of way 260 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 3: because you have the same donors. And in this conversation, 261 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 3: it doesn't sound like you think that he was wrong 262 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 3: in this situation of going after the attorney general. What 263 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 3: do you say to to mister m donney who came 264 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 3: out this morning and said you won't speak out a lit'sten. 265 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 4: We have the same donors. The president was from New York. 266 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 4: I am a lifelong New Yorker. 267 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 2: Right. 268 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 4: There are people who know the president, there are people 269 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 4: who know May. There are people who contributed to the president, 270 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 4: contributed to make friends. 271 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 3: Walt condemned the president here in this situation, How can 272 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:20,160 Speaker 3: a New York believe you'll actually stand. 273 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: Up to him, you condemn him for what well, he 274 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:25,920 Speaker 1: was not likely to stand up to him. But here's 275 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 1: what we also know, he's not going to stand up 276 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 1: for justice. There are folks in the comments saying justice 277 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 1: for Tis James. We stand with Tis James, and I 278 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: think our harsh reality is if you can't stand on 279 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 1: facts and stand on the business of the facts, and 280 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 1: stand on the business of justice, you should not be 281 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: in any elected office, let alone trying to represent the 282 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: city where this black woman, where she comes out of 283 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: and she has been one of the chief protectors of 284 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 1: democracy and justice by trying this case against Donald Trump, 285 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 1: one of the only successful cases against Donald Trump, yielding 286 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 1: a three hundred and sixty eight I believe that it 287 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: is three hundred and sixty eight million dollars fine for 288 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 1: the fraudulent acts taken by the Trump organization, with interest 289 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: by the time it went to appeal over five hundred million. 290 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: And the thing that we have to understand in this 291 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,679 Speaker 1: environment is, given that it's now an appeal, it's not 292 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 1: necessarily thrown out, but it's sure tougher to move forward 293 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 1: with a verdict and a judgment that is actionable because 294 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: people are so afraid of trying a Donald Trump and 295 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: calling him to the carpet. So she got a verdict. 296 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 1: She beat Donald Trump based on that case alone. Donald 297 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 1: Trump and his organization are fraud. But guess who's not, 298 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: Tis James. Tis James is doing what so many black 299 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:58,439 Speaker 1: people have done. Our communities have often been groomed to 300 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 1: take care of one another, to take care of our 301 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 1: family members. And that is what Tis James is being 302 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 1: accused of. She's being accused of buying a house, buy 303 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: another house. So the case was so flimsay the first 304 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 1: time that Donald Trump's I'm sorry that the case went forth. 305 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: When he was trying to push forth with in the 306 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:24,120 Speaker 1: Eastern District of Virginia, the US attorney there was Eric S. Sebert, 307 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 1: and Eric Sebert said, you know what, there's no there there. 308 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,440 Speaker 1: We cannot try this case. Friend, We're not gonna be 309 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 1: able to do it. So what does Donald Trump go do? 310 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: Just like he's done with many of his cabinet positions, 311 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: many of his cabinet secretaries who are DEI, and that 312 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: they didn't earn it. Not diversity, equity inclusion. It's a 313 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 1: very white cabinet y'all can go run tell that and 314 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: check it. It's very true. I believe the only person 315 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 1: who is black in his cabinet is the HUD secretary. 316 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 1: So Eric Siebert says, non Brah, I ain't gonna be 317 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 1: able to do it. He replaces Eric Siebert with Lindsey Halligan. 318 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 1: Lindsay Halligan has no prosecutorial experience, no prosecutor experience whatsoever. Instead, 319 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 1: Lindsey is a insurance an insurance lawyer. And what is 320 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: I think most bizarre about this particular case is that 321 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 1: they are hinging an intent to commit fraud based on 322 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 1: a form. And what we know about these forms is 323 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 1: that people regularly make mistakes on these forms. If in fact, 324 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 1: there were any mistakes made on the forms, we shall see. 325 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: They are charging her with lying and bank fraud. They 326 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: have to prove an intent to deceive, and I think 327 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: they're going to struggle to do exactly that. So let 328 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:50,640 Speaker 1: me just remind you for the record, we have Donald 329 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 1: Trump with thirty four felonies where he was convicted. Remember 330 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: he was charged with eighty nine three were dropped, Yeah, 331 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: I believe it, or was it eighty eight either eighty 332 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: eight felonies three were dropped. It was ninety one ninety 333 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: one felonies charges to eighty eight felony charges thirty four 334 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 1: counts where he was convicted. Guess how many Tiss has zero? 335 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 1: So Donald Trump thirty four felonies Tiss James zero. I 336 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 1: think that's important to understand because again I want to 337 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: draw us back to the fact that it was a 338 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 1: black woman who bought a house. Marilyn Moseby was a 339 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: black woman who bought a house. Lisa Cook is a 340 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 1: Black woman who bought a house. We can't have multiple properties, 341 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: we can't pursue the American dream. When we do is fraudulent. 342 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 1: It's inherently violent and criminal. We are, and I'm saying 343 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 1: these are. They did not committed the acts of violence 344 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 1: or engage any even any physical you know, self defense practices. 345 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: But I'm saying it because this is an age old 346 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 1: story that black people are inherently violent and criminal. That 347 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 1: is what I want to focus us on here, because 348 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:22,199 Speaker 1: if there was ever a time for black men, for 349 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: black women, for black people, for all of our allies 350 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 1: to stand together, it is now. There are folks right 351 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 1: now in Chicago who are being arrested, zip tied handcuffed, 352 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 1: no questions about their citizenship. We told you all this 353 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 1: was gonna happen. We're watching this happen every single day, 354 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: and we told you all that there would not be 355 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 1: a distinction. Brothers, he gonna come for you too. You're 356 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: gonna be on the wrong side of the truth. At 357 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:57,919 Speaker 1: some point, He's already come for some of our folks. 358 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 1: He came for Lenardi, called Lenard lo Iq, It's called 359 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: Don lo Iq, right. This is someone who engages in 360 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: textbook discrimination. There's a thread circulating right now, a political 361 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 1: article about young Republicans in all of the racist white 362 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: supremacists and Hitler Fangirland language in a text exchange on 363 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: an app called Telegram. This is what young white Republican 364 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 1: males are talking about. So if you're not in it 365 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 1: to win it with us, you on the wrong side 366 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: of history, playboy. That's just what it is. So that 367 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: is where I wanted to be today. We have some comments. 368 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 1: Somebody says, why hasn't someone filed a complaint with the 369 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: Bar Association against Bondi, who has clearly violated all conditions 370 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 1: of standing to maintain her license. I agree. I've actually 371 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: raised this same thing that folks should start filing bar 372 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 1: complaints against these frivolous actions taken, as well as the 373 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: selective prosecution that is coming down from this administration that 374 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 1: goes for James Comy. I would love to talk to James. 375 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 1: Call me. I'm still mad at him twenty sixteen, but 376 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: he don't deserve what's happening right now. So James call me, Tis, James, 377 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: Lisa Cook. These are all people who he's targeted because 378 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: he felt like they were on the wrong side of him. 379 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 1: If you don't bend the knee, if you don't bow down, 380 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 1: if you don't kiss the ring, this is what you're 381 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: up against. We know what time it is. The question 382 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: is do you And if you don't know what time 383 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 1: it is, what is it going to take for you 384 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 1: to wake up? So I just want to come here 385 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: to the comments really quick, just to see if there's 386 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:49,399 Speaker 1: anything else here. Y'all got a lot of love today. 387 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 1: I'm grateful and we definitely want to answer any questions. 388 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: Why are when are we going to be solution oriented? 389 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 1: I love this quest question. I love to hear your solutions. 390 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,719 Speaker 1: I think that many of us are being solutions oriented. 391 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: We just talked about a bar complaint strategy. We talked 392 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 1: about ways that people can push back against this onslaught 393 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 1: of a violent rhetoric, violent action, the death threats that ensue, 394 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: and the ways in which they're coming after people's career. 395 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 1: We know right now that more than three hundred thousand 396 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 1: black women, I think it's probably double that are out 397 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 1: of the workforce since this man became president. The way 398 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: for us to respond is to hire one another, to 399 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:36,400 Speaker 1: look for contracting opportunities for each other. We haven't even 400 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 1: talked about on this show yet. The Department of Transportation 401 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: issuing a regulation and the Still of Night saying that 402 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 1: they are changing the Disadvantage Business Enterprise program. They are 403 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: no longer going to consider race or gender. What do 404 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 1: you think is going to happen to the businesses that 405 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: disproportionately hire our people. If there was ever a time 406 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 1: for us to come together and fight back against this nonsense, 407 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 1: this craziness, the type of oppression that our folks claude 408 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: their way out of. If there was ever a time 409 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,159 Speaker 1: to do that, it is right now. It's not tomorrow. 410 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 1: It's not waiting for permission, y'all. We gotta get on 411 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:18,399 Speaker 1: board all together. That is what this moment requires, and 412 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 1: so I implore us, all right, I got if we got 413 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 1: fights to have as a people, let's call each other, 414 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,679 Speaker 1: let's text, let's try to figure out whatever the solution 415 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 1: is on the back end. If you want information about 416 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: someone's accomplishments, what they do, how they roll, and how 417 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,440 Speaker 1: they protect us and the legacy they're building, let's have 418 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: our conversation offline. We ain't got to have family business 419 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 1: in public. We ain't got to do that. I'm down 420 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 1: and stand ready to be available to anyone that wants 421 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 1: to have that conversation, whether it's about my girl, Jasmine, 422 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: my mentor Maxine Waters, Tis James, Marilyn Moseby, whoever it 423 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 1: is like, let's go. Let's talk about it. The brothers too. 424 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 1: It's brothers will be an attacked as well. But what 425 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: we shouldn't do is attack one another and do the 426 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: enemies work for them. That's what we shouldn't do. How 427 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 1: does NLP feel about No King's event? Go forth? Friends, 428 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: go forth? I think you go wherever you feel called. 429 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: Let's see what can we do to continue to support her? 430 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 1: I love it? What can we do to continue to 431 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,160 Speaker 1: support her or Maryland? I think in order to continue 432 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 1: to support Tis James. There's a bunch you can do. 433 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: There's a letter that her attorney, Abby Lowell wrote in April. 434 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: There's another one that he wrote to Ed martin August 435 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: eighteenth that they're all for public consumption. There are also 436 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:47,360 Speaker 1: articles being written about her case so that you understand 437 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 1: what she's up against, which isn't much. Her case is 438 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 1: actually before Judge Jamar Walker, who is a Biden appointee 439 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 1: in the Eastern District of Virginia and as a thirty 440 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 1: nine year old, and I think that he's gonna see 441 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 1: the facts of the case and realize that there are none, 442 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,399 Speaker 1: and hopefully the case will be thrown out. It is 443 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: selective prosecution. It is malicious prosecution. I actually hope that 444 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: Attorney General Tiss James will sue them for malicious prosecution, 445 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:21,400 Speaker 1: which is a civil cause of action. With Marilyn Moseby, 446 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,920 Speaker 1: I think stay informed about where she is in the 447 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: UH in the case around appeal. We want that sister 448 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 1: to be able to practice. She's actively engaged in State 449 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 1: of the People work with me. She's powerful, she's incredible, 450 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: she is dope, and she's doing the Lord's work and 451 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 1: always has been Uh, somebody said, Tish is about to 452 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:44,479 Speaker 1: be convicted. Stop it? You stop it, friend? You have 453 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: no facts? What else? 454 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 3: Uh? 455 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's it. We've been We've been rolling 456 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 1: deep for about thirty minutes. As you all know, we 457 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: record our show on Wednesdays, our main episode and then 458 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: our mini pods or our main episode will drop, same 459 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: bad time, same bad station here on YouTube and on 460 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 1: iHeart wherever you get your podcasts.

How should black men and black women be 464 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 1: engaging in this conversation right now, especially when we're at 465 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 1: we're at war on every side. We shouldn't be at 466 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: war with each other. We certainly should be protecting each other. 467 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 1: And if we don't have all the facts, we have 468 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 1: an obligation to get to know them, especially when they 469 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 1: are so scarce in this moment. So I appreciate you 470 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: all's time. It was heavy on my heart to talk 471 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: about the least protected person in America. They are my 472 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: dear sisters, and I urge you all to read about 473 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 1: them and when you are comfortable after reading all those facts. 474 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: Stand with them because they are fighting the good fight 475 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 1: we all deserve to be fought for. Let's join in 476 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 1: the fight and not watch them idly as they fight 477 00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: on our behalf. I appreciate y'all so much.
