I want 9 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: to talk to you today about my gun control personal contradictions. 10 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:50,440 Speaker 1: My gun control personal contradictions. I hope that I am 11 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: able to say something uh in your life that either 12 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: blesses you, challenges you, confronts you, uh, pricks your conscious 13 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: in order to think broadly about this topic and take 14 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: what I am saying as an opportunity to have a 15 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 1: discussion among yourself from not folks on Twitter, not folks 16 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 1: on i G not complete strangers that you do not know, 17 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 1: not trying to convince me, but an opportunity to talk 18 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: about gun control where you stand with your family. Like 19 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: I always say, use it, lose it, can make you 20 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: choose it. I am nonpartisan. I do not belong to 21 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,960 Speaker 1: a political party. I do not push one ideology over 22 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: the other. My role, I believe, is to prick the conscious, 23 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 1: using the words of Shirley Chisholm, of America, in particularly 24 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,479 Speaker 1: Black America. So I want to say that right now 25 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: America is at a cross roads, not a cross road 26 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: that we have not seen before. In fact, the cross 27 00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: road looks very familiar to Black America. We recognize the signs. 28 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:07,639 Speaker 1: In fact, like a GPS, black people, as the moral 29 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: compass of America, have predicted what it is that we see. 30 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: We have always seen the one way street that was 31 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 1: systematically created by design that basically tells Black America. The 32 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: government has always told us my way or the highway. 33 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: We also recognized the dead ends, the system that blocks 34 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: us in. And when you're blocked in, While many communities 35 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: use that as an opportunity to get close, the opposite 36 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,959 Speaker 1: effect can also happen where we turn on each other. 37 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: On Tuesday, I know the families of those who are 38 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: slain in Buffalo will be at the US Capitol, and 39 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: Attorney Crump asked me if I wanted to join them 40 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: and that journey. At first I said yes, and then 41 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: I said no, and then I said yes again, and 42 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 1: then my final answer was no. And it's not often 43 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: that I am indecisive about what I should do and 44 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: where I should go. In fact, my my cousin was 45 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: teasing me and she said, you so wishy washy. She 46 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: thought I was going just the d C to hang out, 47 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,399 Speaker 1: and I said, no, I wasn't going to hang out. 48 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: I was going to watch the families testify. And it's 49 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: not that I'm wishy washy. It is that I listened 50 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 1: to discernment on my spirit on what I should be 51 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: involved in and what I should not be involved in. 52 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: And for me, it was more important to talk about 53 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: white supremacy alone and that alone, and not gun control, 54 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: although gun control should be talked about. I wanted for 55 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: me and where I stand, because I can't control the 56 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: narrative of the media and what clips they take and 57 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: how they take the story and do what they want 58 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: to do with it. For me, I have to control 59 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: my position and where I stand. And for those of 60 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 1: you who have heard a lot of things about Attorney Crump, 61 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: I want to dismiss this particular line, and I have 62 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: no problem with people criticizing him, but you have to 63 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: understand that those who criticize him have never worked with him. Uh, 64 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: don't even know the man. So I do want to 65 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: say this that him and I fall often on different 66 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 1: sides of the spectrum on how we see things. And 67 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: although contrary to popular belief, when you've heard him heard 68 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: things about him telling families to forgive, and it's never 69 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: told families anything, at least not in my presence to 70 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 1: tell them what to do. Now, let me be clear, 71 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: I do not, I repeat, do not support that forgiveness bullshit. 72 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: And I also understand that the family has a right 73 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: to move they want to move, But I want to 74 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,679 Speaker 1: be clear that's not where I stand. But I'm saying 75 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: this to say that he has never challenged me on 76 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 1: my position and how I feel. And I credit that 77 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 1: as a true leader to me because opposed to him, 78 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 1: when I told him that I had a conflict with 79 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: testifying about gun control and white supremacy, Uh, he never 80 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: tried to talk me into it. What says, you know, 81 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: this is what we gotta do. He said. I respect that. 82 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,919 Speaker 1: I understand that because to me, I needed it to 83 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 1: be all about white supremacy. But I'm not in control. 84 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: But I am in control of where I stand, and 85 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: when I am standing on the stage, it needs to 86 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,359 Speaker 1: be crystal clear to me and my conscious on what 87 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: I believe. So I told him on Saturday, I think 88 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna pass because of my personal contradictions on gun 89 00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 1: control may not be aligned with those who are in 90 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: charge of the hearing, those who are in charge of 91 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: the media, those who have the microphone. And rather than 92 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: me going there and trying to bogard and over talk 93 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: folks and big folks, I just decided to sit home 94 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: every now and then. You need to learn how to 95 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: not be on the stage. There's many opportunities that I 96 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: have to be on the stage, but I will never 97 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 1: stand for something I do not believe in, which is 98 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: why you don't see me a part of every protest, 99 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: why you don't see me a part of every hashtag, 100 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: why you don't see me commenting on everything that goes 101 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 1: across the Twitter feed, because I do not believe that 102 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 1: I have to have a comment for everything and ride 103 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: on everything. So I chose to say home on this 104 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: particular subject. And the reason why I'm at a crossroads 105 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: is because how can I tesla and figure, oh, I'm 106 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: not talking about you all on Twitter? I see you. 107 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: I'm not talking about you on Instagram and you on YouTube. 108 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 1: I'm talking about Tesla Figure. Oh. How can Teslain Figure 109 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: Oh stand there and talk about gun control when I 110 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: know that white supremacy will use their guns on us. 111 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: And I'm not talking about just the physical guns. I'm 112 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: talking about all of the fire power that they have 113 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: and when they use that fire power, whether it is 114 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 1: the physical. If you're just now following me, you have 115 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: to understand I use a metaphors and analogies because I 116 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: need you to get it. It's just not the physical 117 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: fire power, but their influence power that allows them to 118 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: get away with murdering us as a veteran and M 119 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: sixs to gonna to be exact, that's a twenty three 120 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: pound weapon that fires a hundred rounds at a time. 121 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: Would it be hypocritical for me to stand there and 122 00:07:55,920 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 1: believe and pretend that I don't believe even Black America's 123 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: right to self defend? How can I pretend that perhaps 124 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: if Trayvon Martin are Ahmad Aubrey, who, as a reminder, 125 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: were not killed by police but killed by armed white 126 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: supremacist civilians, perhaps if Trayvon Martin actually had what George 127 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: Zimmerman pretended he had, which was a gun opposed the skittles. 128 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: Perhaps the outcome would have been different. Perhaps if Ahmard 129 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: was strapped, not cocked, and ready to rock to defend 130 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: himself although he was outnumbered, perhaps Ahmad's parents would not 131 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: have been the only one attending their son's funeral. How 132 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 1: can I pretend that these things don't exist? How can 133 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: I take one topic and talk about that one topic 134 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: but not talk about the others. How can I present 135 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: to you not present the three sixty degrees? And since 136 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: I know I'm not only I'm only gonna have a 137 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: minute or two on the mic, I know it doesn't 138 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: allow me an opportunity to present the full case. So 139 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: I'd rather do it on Instagram or Twitter or YouTube. 140 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 1: And it doesn't matter to me how many watch, how 141 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: many subscribe, how many don't share. This is about me 142 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: putting it down in the atmosphere for my conscious and 143 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: for your conscious, and to take that with you so 144 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 1: that you can make a difference in your own life. 145 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: Many of you say, oh, yeah, if you have the opportunity, 146 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: you would do it. No, no, no, I've had many 147 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: opportunities to be on many stages. I don't cloud chase 148 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 1: despite popular belief. I have said no more than I've 149 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: said yes, because my name means something to me. And yes, 150 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,559 Speaker 1: those of you that say, well, what about gun violence 151 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: in our community? Can I take a moment to talk 152 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: to you about that, because yes, that is devastating as well. 153 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: My best friend that I have brought on the show 154 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: several times, Cliffer Johnson, was paralyzed three years ago just 155 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: by standing in the yard at a barbecue, a victim 156 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: of a drive by shooting. I was on the phone 157 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: with him ten minutes prior, begging him to go home 158 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: because he was actually tired. Kept saying I'm tired of 159 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: I'm a fall asleep on the where. I said, why 160 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: don't you go home? I kept saying why don't you? 161 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: He kept making stop at the stop. At the stop, 162 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: I kept saying, go home. He said, I'm gonna make 163 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: one more run. I was on the phone with him 164 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: when he pulled up and he said, I don't like 165 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: the way it looks. This doesn't look right, and I said, 166 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: why don't you go home? Ten minutes later he called 167 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: me on FaceTime Indianbulance saying he was shot in paralyzed. 168 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 1: So I don't need nobody explaining to me what gun 169 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: control means. This has been one of the most devastating, 170 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,959 Speaker 1: to scruciate and trauma inflicted things that I've ever had 171 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 1: to deal with. Despite losing a family member every year 172 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,079 Speaker 1: for the last twenty years, including both my parents, this 173 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,559 Speaker 1: one was different because my conscious kept pulling him back 174 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: and the enemy kept pulling him forward, and I struggled 175 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: with that even to this day. This is why, as 176 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: I explained to you a moment ago, when my conscious 177 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: say stay, and then something says go, and then my 178 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: conscious say stay and then says go, I listened to 179 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: my conscious is called the Holy Spirit. It says that 180 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 1: the Lord to send you a comforter. So how do 181 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: I ignore the fact that perhaps if we didn't have 182 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: violence in our community, he would not be paralyzed. The 183 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:53,319 Speaker 1: strongest man that I've ever known since n my protector 184 00:11:54,080 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: since nineteen nine four, How is it that I have 185 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:05,959 Speaker 1: to watch him not be able to move. If you 186 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 1: go back and listen to the Gangster Chronicles podcast, he 187 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: explained how it was the first one there when he 188 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 1: opened up his eyes because it was important to me 189 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: that he knew that even though he could not stand, 190 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: he was not standing alone. How do I forget that? 191 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 1: In two thousand thirteen, my nineteen year old baby because 192 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: in Jordan Turner, was shocked by kids that pretended to 193 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: be his friends. He was left in the field for months. 194 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 1: It was a close casket. His mother never had an 195 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 1: opportunity to give a proper goodbye. How do I deal 196 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: with his dad having to identify a decomposed body every night, 197 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: several nights a week. A week, his father would call 198 00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: while he was working the late night shift. Someone that 199 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: I've known that has been strong his whole life. Jordan 200 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 1: was my cousin Lynn's son, and Frank would call me 201 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 1: at night just to talk or sometimes to cry, or 202 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 1: to sometimes ask why because he didn't understand how he 203 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: was a football coach. Frank is a football coach and 204 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 1: works with thousands of youth every year. Gave his son 205 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: a game. What to look for, what not to look for, 206 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: what to avoid? How is it that they took my 207 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: son from me? Or how do I forget about my 208 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: twenty one year old cousin Chantel Matt, who was also 209 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 1: murdered a few years later In two thousand and seventeen 210 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 1: by random gunfire at a softball game. How do I 211 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 1: forget that she had nothing to do with the streets, 212 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,359 Speaker 1: Jordan had nothing to do with the streets young lives 213 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: that were taken from us by just being in the crossfire. 214 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 1: Or what about just last month, many of you heard 215 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: me react in real time on my Instagram when the 216 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: text came through that told me that one of my 217 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: closest friend's daughter, twenty two year old now you're roughing, 218 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: was shot and murdered by someone who broke down her door. 219 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: Not a girl in the streets, not somebody that was 220 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: out selling dope, not somebody that was in violence, but 221 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 1: laying on her couch, the door was kicked in, and 222 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: she was murdered and taken away from her family and 223 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 1: her young toddler. How do I forget about her? And 224 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 1: then also, how do I forget about Brianna Taylor that 225 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: was also laying in her bed, unarmed and killed by 226 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: the state. So do I wish that all of the 227 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: people that I mentioned had an opportunity to defend themselves? 228 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: The answer is hell, yeah, I do. Do I know 229 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: that many of you say that, well, you know guns 230 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 1: not the answer, Well, what is the answer. Do we 231 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: keep sitting like sitting ducks? Does it mean that me 232 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: promoting self defense means that more wrong people might get guns? 233 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 1: I'm not dumb, are slow? I understand that when there's guns, 234 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: criminals are gonna get them as well. But do I 235 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 1: also understand that two things can be true at the 236 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: same time, and being trained in armed to defending yourself, 237 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: you got a better chance of making it out alive. 238 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 1: Or my funeral won't be the only funeral that will 239 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: be going down. How is it that I can stand 240 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: before anybody and have this conversation when I know I 241 00:15:53,960 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: have my own personal contradictions Right now, rules are upset, 242 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: the teachers are being asked to carry a weapon, and yes, 243 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 1: I have concerned that some of those teachers might turn 244 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: the gun on us. Well, you know, he got out 245 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: of control and the only way I could defend myself 246 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: was to kill him. But but what difference is that 247 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: when the state has an opportunity to kill him and 248 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: get away with it. So it seems that we're at 249 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: a parallel, a parallel no matter what the situation. But 250 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: I won't lie to you and tell you that I 251 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 1: would rather my very best friend, my sister, my prayer warrior, Aisha, 252 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: who's been a teacher for twenty five years, has an 253 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: opportunity to defend herself in the classroom. Never touched the gun, 254 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: never a violent person, never even a fight. Every fight 255 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: that she had growing up, I was always the one 256 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: that stood in the front and said, if you want 257 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: to fight her, you're gonna have to deal with me. 258 00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 1: So she is nowhere near a violent person, But are 259 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: something about knowing she would have an opportunity to defend 260 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 1: herself and make it home that I came life to 261 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: your family. I don't know if it's all the way 262 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: a bad thing. That's just me my own personal contradictions, 263 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 1: my own personal contradictions are struggling with white supremacy killing us, 264 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 1: the state killing us, my own personal contradictions of my 265 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: own people killing us, my own personal contradictions of mass 266 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: shooters and class rooms. This is the crossroads that we 267 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: continue to bear. The question is do we bear arms? 268 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 1: Are not bear arms? And no, I do not believe 269 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 1: that a civilian needs and a ARE fifteen. But I'm 270 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:55,159 Speaker 1: also not dumb enough to know that when in a 271 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:59,199 Speaker 1: ARE fifteen is uh improperly used? That is what we 272 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: call the print at all, even if he did not 273 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:06,160 Speaker 1: have a prior background, he's committing criminal behavior, whether it's 274 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: mental illness or just flat out a criminal, whether it's 275 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 1: a gang member that's blasting up a whole uh block. 276 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: The bottom line is they're a criminal. So I don't 277 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: know if they're going to it here to the background 278 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 1: check anyway. So this is the crossroads that we are at. 279 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: And I also know that it's not much a pistol 280 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 1: can do nine times out of ten against an A 281 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 1: R fourteen a R fifteen. But I know that it 282 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: happened a couple of weeks ago. Uh some woman shot 283 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: down someone that had an A R fifteen and was 284 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 1: firing in an open crowd. Does that happen all the time? No? 285 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: Miss me? With your social media, what about is M comments? 286 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 1: You always thinking you got a new answer, something new, 287 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: won't know? But what about this? And what about that? 288 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 1: Always thinking you got the most brilliant mind, the smartest 289 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 1: in the room. We could sit here and go through 290 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 1: a thousand what about Islams? And what about this? And 291 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: what about that? Well, what if the person was this 292 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: or that? The bottom line is what I'm telling you 293 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: is that it's obvious that the leaders don't know. You 294 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know. I encourage you to do 295 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,239 Speaker 1: what's best for you and your family. Don't listen to me. 296 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: I don't tell you who to vote for. I don't 297 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 1: tell you what political party to join. So I'm damn 298 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:24,719 Speaker 1: sore not gonna tell you not to defend yourself and 299 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: stop waiting on someone to tell you what it's right. 300 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,719 Speaker 1: Stop waiting on someone to stay, to be able to 301 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 1: stay and affirmed and what you believe. That's the problem. 302 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 1: You always running looking for an answer, and then y'all 303 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 1: make it up as you go. It's so hilarious this 304 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 1: last weekend when Lorie Harvey and Michael broke up, broke up, 305 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: I've watched all the comments of everybody who ain't never 306 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 1: been in the bedroom with them, everybody who ain't never 307 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,199 Speaker 1: being in their house, everybody who don't know shit about him, 308 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: came up with all kind of conclusions where you know 309 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 1: it was all just a contract where you know they 310 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 1: say he gave you know she didn't want to have 311 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,160 Speaker 1: no babies, where you know she for the streets. It's 312 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: so amazing how y'all make it up as you go 313 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: with people you ain't never met, and you'll be standing 314 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 1: in that ship so affirmed as if you actually know 315 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 1: what you're talking about. I'm here to remind you you 316 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,199 Speaker 1: don't know what you're talking about, and neither do the 317 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 1: other person on Twitter or Instagram or Facebook or YouTube. 318 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: And guess what that also includes me. The decision is yours. 319 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 1: That's why people get disappointed when they say, what's what? What? 320 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 1: What's what should I do? I don't know what should 321 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 1: you see? I'm not trying to create some movement to 322 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,159 Speaker 1: tell you what to do. The movement I'm creating is 323 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: to tell you to stand on your own damn feet. 324 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 1: People that feel like they got to control your every 325 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: emotion I call that manipulation. Oh no, we need to 326 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 1: go do this, We need to do this. Who the 327 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: hell is weak? Who is weak? You need to stand 328 00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 1: on you? What tells it? What? Just? What? Just tell 329 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:00,959 Speaker 1: me how to vote? How can I tell you how 330 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,160 Speaker 1: to vote when I don't know nothing about your pocket book. 331 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: I don't know nothing about how you live. I don't 332 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 1: know nothing about your family, And why would you trust 333 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 1: it with me? You don't know me from a hole 334 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 1: in the wall. Social media has too many of you 335 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: believe the great equalizers because you believe now that your 336 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: opinion is important. So because you believe your opinion is important, 337 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: you read the next person's opinion and you believe that 338 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: actually they got something to contribute. No, all the time, 339 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 1: you ain't got nothing to contribute. Sometimes you just need 340 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 1: to be quiet. That's why I'm not there Tuesday. Because 341 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: sometimes you need to be quiet and allow your discerning 342 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: the most high, to speak to you. And if you 343 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 1: don't believe in God, then hey, I don't have no 344 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 1: problem with that either. I'm telling you my personal contradictions 345 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: how I move because I don't have a mentor. I 346 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 1: don't have parents on this earth to tell me how 347 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:52,360 Speaker 1: to do this and how to do that. I don't 348 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,160 Speaker 1: have elders from the civil rights community. Let's say, well, 349 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:56,959 Speaker 1: you should do this and you should do that. Did 350 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 1: nobody put me in this. I've been walking by faith 351 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: and not by sight, so I've had to figure it out. 352 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: I've had to know when to listen, when to be quiet, 353 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: when to speak, when the halt and yes, even when 354 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: the clown, even when to check. Somebody, Oh, why do 355 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 1: y'all take the time? Tells them? Why do you take 356 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 1: the time to do it. Well, I take the time 357 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 1: to do it. Not that I do it with everybody 358 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,199 Speaker 1: that come for me, but I take the time to 359 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: do it because I believe in scattering spirits. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 360 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,640 Speaker 1: I believe. See, I'm truly self defense. When you come 361 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,120 Speaker 1: looking for me, I'm gonna send you back to your 362 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 1: mommy and Nam's house. And I don't mean that just 363 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: in the literal sense, but in the figurative sense and 364 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 1: self defense because I don't go picking on nobody on 365 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: Instagram or Twitter. You don't hear me making video after 366 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: video about what this contributor said and what that contributor said. 367 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 1: No disrespect to the people that do it. I'm telling 368 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: you how I get that. I only talk about the 369 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,199 Speaker 1: powers that be. So when some body comes out and 370 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: go out of their way to come looking for me, 371 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 1: then you get an opportunity to see what y'all saw 372 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: last week when the chick came looking for me. I'm 373 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 1: gonna sending your ass home and make you regret you 374 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:17,239 Speaker 1: ever opened up your mouth. Oh teslent, you didn't let 375 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,160 Speaker 1: us speak. Well, that's because I got annointing in my spirit. 376 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 1: I shut sit down. I talked over you I'm rude, 377 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: um childish. I do all of that because you shouldn't 378 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: have never walked your ass up on my property. That's 379 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 1: our self defense. Get down. Yeah, yeah, that's that's that's 380 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,719 Speaker 1: how stopped expecting me to behave like a civilian. I'm 381 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: not a civilian. A lot of y'all runnerver w in 382 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: war and war and warrior never been to No warrior's 383 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 1: been trained, no war. I'm a real warrior for real, 384 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 1: really trained for real through the infantry. So why do 385 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: you expect folks like me that was trained for war, 386 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: whether I've been the one or not. The bottom line 387 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 1: is I raised my hand and said, put me on 388 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,639 Speaker 1: the front line. So that tell you that my brain 389 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 1: ain't wrapped up the way you're civilized, Seville. Your brain 390 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 1: is wrapped up, which is taking the high road, which 391 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: is talking about talking ship from a distance. I like 392 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: to talk face to face. That's why when people come 393 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: after me, I say, let's go live, because I need 394 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: to see your face. I need to see if you're 395 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 1: just as strong as your words. And y'all see, once 396 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,120 Speaker 1: they get old, they stumble what they words. They fumble 397 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: with they words. They're not as clear. Oh they seem 398 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 1: so strong when all you got to do is read, 399 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: But when you got to deal with me face to face, 400 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 1: when I get an opportunity to see if your verbal 401 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: can really handle my verbal. When does an opportunity to 402 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 1: see it these nowls and verbs and adjectives and my 403 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:41,879 Speaker 1: quick wit and all event and facts come up against you, 404 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:48,199 Speaker 1: Then we get to see who's really m C on 405 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:53,159 Speaker 1: this microphone? All teslaing you be humble, I'm just staying faces. 406 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: I'm a MC on the microphone. I'm a freestyle battle rapper. 407 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: I've battled me in part get lots after the club. 408 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 1: I'm not just saying that I wrapped for real, I 409 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,199 Speaker 1: just didn't know who would be on the microphone in politics. 410 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: But I'm not surprised because I'm a freestyle battle rapper. 411 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: That's why it comes off so easy. That's why the 412 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: metaphors is so easy. That's why the analogy is so easy. 413 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: And that's why I like to challenge people for battles. 414 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 1: Forget all of that. I do a video, and you 415 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: do a video. Then I do a video. Let's go 416 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: live and let's let the people see. Let's do it 417 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 1: versus let's let them all see that that that girl 418 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,239 Speaker 1: set up there and recruited everybody to come watch up 419 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,439 Speaker 1: the minds. Let me say it one more time.

She said, Oh no, no, no, 422 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 1: let's make sure we have a set time so everybody 423 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,440 Speaker 1: can come watch. I don't have no problem, mom, I'm 424 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 1: trying to save you to humiliation, but instead you wanted 425 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 1: to bring everybody to come sit around and watch you 426 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: at three o'clock on the bus stop.

However, if you believe that 499 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 1: there should be no guns, and you've had a loved 500 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: one taken from you and that pain is attached to 501 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: a gun, then you two have every right to say 502 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 1: I want to get rid of all guns. It's a utopia. 503 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: It's not gonna happen, but you do have that right 504 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: to that emotion, to that trauma. And if somebody took 505 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,719 Speaker 1: your loved one's life and you say, I believe in 506 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: an eye for an eye and a two for the two, 507 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: and if the state ain't gonna do it, then somebody 508 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 1: got to do it. Then who am I to judge that? 509 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 1: Either I'm not encouraging violence, but if I was encouraging violence, 510 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 1: so well, America has been encouraging violence on black bodies 511 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 1: for over five four hundred years. It's a trick when 512 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 1: I see black leaders always feel like they got to 513 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: give the disclaimer. I'm not inciting violence, though I'm not 514 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: encouraging violence, though I armed up. I just want to 515 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 1: make it clear I'm not. What if you was they 516 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 1: inciting it on us? Stand up with your back straight, brother? 517 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: What if he was encouraging violence? What if you was 518 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 1: you get so nervous? What the white folks gonna think, oh, man, 519 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 1: I don't I don't want no head like they're saying, 520 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: I'm insight violence. Guess what they're gonna say it anyway, Well, 521 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: we don't want them to look at us, and we 522 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 1: don't want when Will Smith slapped the taste out of 523 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 1: Chris Rock, now, well we don't want the black folks. 524 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: We don't want the white folks looking at us that 525 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 1: kind of way. They already look at you that kind 526 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: of way. Maybe it's time they start seeing black men 527 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: slap again. Let me say it one more time. Maybe 528 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: it's time they see black men slap again. Maybe they 529 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 1: need to know that a slap is always on the table. 530 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: Maybe they'll stop running up with the audacity and yes, 531 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,719 Speaker 1: don't waste your time talking about but Chris Rock though 532 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 1: there was something different, But I can know that some different, 533 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: dumbbo I'm talking about the overall message. You're so quick 534 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: to want to have something to say. I'm talking about 535 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 1: the overall. Maybe it's time the black men slap again. 536 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: Maybe if they can take Cornball Wheel and make him 537 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 1: get fed up, maybe he can be the symbol that say, 538 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,520 Speaker 1: if Will Smith is fed up, now, don't start typing 539 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: in the comments. Aba, Really it was about Jada, and 540 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: really was about that. Shut up dumbo. We're talking about 541 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: the main thing being the main thing. Maybe Will Smith 542 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 1: can be the symbol to say that if Will Smith 543 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 1: is fed up, if the friend, if the fresh Prince 544 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: of bel Air is fed up, then maybe you should 545 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 1: be concerned about how they're feeling incompetent. But y'all didn't 546 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: see that though, because you got so caught up. Go 547 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,959 Speaker 1: back and listen to my podcast about how black voters 548 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 1: are getting the Chris Rock slapped out of him. You didn't. 549 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: You missed all of that because you were so caught 550 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 1: up in in Jada's bedroom and Will's bedroom, and oh 551 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: lord and lord, they did it in front of the 552 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: white folks were so embarrassed. I remember Turning Crump was 553 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 1: there at the oscars. Old man, it's just the air 554 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 1: left the room. I said, why didn't you ask some 555 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 1: of them people in the room. Why didn't know some 556 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 1: of them celebrities stand up when it comes to white supremacy. 557 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 1: Why the air don't never get taken out the room 558 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 1: when people are murdered. But y'all got so much to 559 00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: say about somebody getting slapped. I don't want to hear it. 560 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: I called bullshit you so oh man, we just so 561 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 1: heart broke it cause the white folks ain't gonna never 562 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 1: invite us back again, oh man. And Will Packard was 563 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,720 Speaker 1: the director, and oh man, it made us look so bad. 564 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 1: What about the ancestors that was the director, the producer, 565 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: the cast, everything that built this country. And I don't 566 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: see none of them talking about reparations to miss me 567 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 1: with this all of a sudden passion that you got 568 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 1: for an executive producer, miss me with this all of 569 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: a sudden. You're so distraught because you can't stand violence 570 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:04,479 Speaker 1: when y'all set there, multi millionaire asses and ain't putting 571 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 1: nothing on the line to stand for black folks that 572 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 1: were shot down in their back. But y'all didn't hear 573 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: that part because you allow social media to get you 574 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 1: caught up and ship that ain't got nothing to do 575 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 1: with ship. Look at the metaphor, look at the analogy, 576 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:31,439 Speaker 1: Look at the signs. There was a sign the nerve 577 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 1: of them who's sitting around here getting slapped by Hollywood, 578 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 1: getting slapped by white supremacists, being told when to speak 579 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: when not to speak. None of them what they rich 580 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,879 Speaker 1: asses are willing to put anything on the line. Let 581 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: me correct that. I don't want to say no because 582 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: some do. Let's use Jamie fox for an example. I 583 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: believe one of the most talented, if not the most 584 00:34:55,040 --> 00:35:01,880 Speaker 1: talented black man are man period in Holly would He 585 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:09,800 Speaker 1: has consistently spoke up against white supremacy. He also gotta 586 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 1: lick in when the dude jumped on the stage to 587 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 1: hurt Dave Chappelle. Do y'all remember can I show you 588 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 1: a sign? Do y'all remember that Jamie FOXX came out 589 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 1: on the stage and gotta lick in. And he's an 590 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 1: Oscar winner too. Y'all didn't catch that? You didn't see 591 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: what God was trying to show you. See, he was 592 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 1: willing to still risk it all. But that was different. 593 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,360 Speaker 1: There wasn't the obscars think about the big picture, dumbbo. 594 00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 1: The bottom line is he knew it with trend, he 595 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 1: knew what would get out there. He knew that it 596 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 1: could affect him. But when they came for his brother, 597 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 1: he was willing to stand. See in Hollywood they make money, 598 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 1: but that it seemed like it ain't never enough money 599 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 1: for him. I'm a middle class woman. I'm not rich 600 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,239 Speaker 1: even by a long shot. While am I willing to 601 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,759 Speaker 1: stand up and lose it all the consequences of consciousness. 602 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 1: Y'all can't risk five hundred thousand when y'all damn near 603 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 1: head a billion. How much money do you need? How 604 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,680 Speaker 1: much power do you need? And I ain't had no problem. 605 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 1: If you want all the money and the power in 606 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,959 Speaker 1: the world, that's fine. But don't you dare say nothing 607 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,359 Speaker 1: about we didn't want thin white folks to look at 608 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 1: us and violent because you got up there and slapped him. 609 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:22,360 Speaker 1: They already looking at your violent black man. They already 610 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 1: looking at your violent black woman. Why do you think 611 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 1: they say, I fear for my life? So you ain't 612 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 1: gonna change no hearts and minds of no races. Whatever 613 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 1: they're gonna do harm to you, they're gonna do it. 614 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 1: So I say, we're gonna all, using the words of 615 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,880 Speaker 1: Harlem Nights, we're gonna all be some fighting motherfucker's in 616 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:55,040 Speaker 1: here this evening. At some point you're gonna have to 617 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 1: figure it out for yourself. At some point you're gonna 618 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 1: have to figure out where you're staying. And I'll say 619 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 1: this and closing, and I said all the time, and 620 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 1: we'll repeat it every chance I get. In the end 621 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 1: of it all, if you believe in the most high, 622 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 1: the question will be asked. There will be dividing up 623 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,839 Speaker 1: the goat from the sheep. I know, y'all, love has 624 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,319 Speaker 1: tack and go go, go, go goat. Everybody will gold 625 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 1: in your mind. Everybody would go the greatest all time, 626 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 1: greatest all time. Can I tell y'all that in the end, 627 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 1: this is what the Bible will say, not what I say, 628 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 1: and say it's gonna divide up the goat from the sheet. 629 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,360 Speaker 1: But what do you mean the sheep. I'm not a sheep. 630 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: I don't follow along. Well, of course you don't follow along, man, 631 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 1: but the sheep. It's about the shepherd's business, about the 632 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 1: least of these. And there will be a distinction. I 633 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:43,839 Speaker 1: know y'all don't be in the funerals and they say 634 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 1: we all gonna go to heaven. What a day it 635 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:47,959 Speaker 1: will be, because I remind you we all ain't going. 636 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 1: Because if we're all going, then what the hell am 637 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 1: I fighting for? Because I don't want to be among 638 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,320 Speaker 1: many of you. I need there to be a distinction. 639 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:57,799 Speaker 1: I need you to know the distinction between me and 640 00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 1: them over there all tests, and you ain't better than them. 641 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 1: That know what I'm saying. I'm saying I need to know, you, 642 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 1: need to know the difference. I ain't like you, I 643 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,960 Speaker 1: ain't like you, ain't nothing like you. Let's make the distinction. 644 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 1: Like the brother the other day that said, well just 645 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 1: like you, ma Ben can't be just like me because 646 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 1: we ain't the same. And I say that because at 647 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:16,319 Speaker 1: the end there will be a distinction between those who 648 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 1: have been about the shepherd's business and the goat. And 649 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:24,440 Speaker 1: the shepherd's business is the least of these. And if 650 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:27,360 Speaker 1: you do not find yourself ever on the side of 651 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 1: the least of these, then you're gonna find yourself on 652 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 1: the other side of the gate. Well, I ain't worried 653 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 1: about it, because I don't leave it. No heaven, no way. 654 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 1: Well great, if heaven don't exist, I guess you don't 655 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: have nothing to worry about. But what if it does exist? 656 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:43,960 Speaker 1: What if it does exist? And no, I do not 657 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 1: preach Jesus Passive New Testament Christianity. I believe in Deborah 658 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 1: from the Book of Judges that said, if you do 659 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 1: not deliver my people, general Barack from the hands of poverty. 660 00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 1: He will deliver it through the hands of a woman. 661 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,760 Speaker 1: Oh there you go with that gender talk and nobody 662 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: talking about no damn gender talk. I'll just make it 663 00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:13,920 Speaker 1: up as you go. You look for ship to talk about. 664 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: This weekend, when I made the comment about um Omar 665 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:23,719 Speaker 1: talking about conflating his relationship using a slavery analogy, brother said, well, 666 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 1: you stop being mad at successful black men. Oh you 667 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:28,880 Speaker 1: just get mad at this. Why you don't say it 668 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 1: with women. That's why I had to repost the clip 669 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 1: that showed I checked old girl when she tried to 670 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 1: make a false equivalenca to slavery. So anytime somebody make 671 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 1: a false equivalently to slavery our trauma, I'm gonna tell 672 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 1: your asked to shut it up in my presence and 673 00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 1: our damn showre gonna say it when you're trying to 674 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: use that to justify your marriage to a white woman. 675 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 1: Because I noticed that the only thing that was trending 676 00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 1: about Omar was how he had to borrow money from 677 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 1: fift not one person and said anything about that. That's 678 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,760 Speaker 1: why I made that post. Don't you find it interesting 679 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 1: that you're more concerned about if he had to borrow 680 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: money from fifty cent but nobody gave two ships about 681 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,279 Speaker 1: him talking about how he to master the slave and 682 00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: some mumbo jumbo that didn't even make no damn sense. 683 00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 1: Not nobody stood up for us. You thought it was 684 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 1: a gender thing because I used women, though I'm talking 685 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:28,400 Speaker 1: about me and and women Black people. You keep our 686 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 1: trum out your mouth, and that even means Black people 687 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 1: keep your trauma out our mouth. If you want to 688 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 1: marry the white girl, just say I married the white 689 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 1: girl because she was down with me and our love. 690 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:41,480 Speaker 1: The I ain't got no problem with that. Many brothers 691 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 1: came in the comments and said I married a white woman. 692 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 1: But I would never equate that to slavery. I would 693 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 1: never use that type of analogy. I would never equate 694 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,960 Speaker 1: it to how just because she's stood by him always 695 00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 1: shows that she can withstand the same ship black people do. 696 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: I'm paraphrasing, but go look at the actual quote. The 697 00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 1: nerve of you to think, because she's still by your 698 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 1: fine ass, that she deserved some type of award to 699 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,439 Speaker 1: go through what black women go through. Who's stand by 700 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,400 Speaker 1: our men through thick and thin, the ugly ones, the 701 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,919 Speaker 1: tall ones, the short ones, the fat ones, the ones 702 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 1: in jail, the ones in the grave. We have always 703 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 1: still by me. And so we don't give no white 704 00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:22,360 Speaker 1: woman no cookie for standing by his fine ass. Because 705 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 1: somebody said this. I'm not gonna say it, but by 706 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:28,240 Speaker 1: the looks of his wife, the nerves, heart, the feels, 707 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 1: she had another option. Oh yeah, I'm gonna go ahead 708 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 1: and say it. Oh mars fine his hell, where else 709 00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:37,919 Speaker 1: was she gonna go. She don't get no cookie. Hell, 710 00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,560 Speaker 1: I'm standing there with her, about a hundred more standing 711 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,320 Speaker 1: there waiting in line. If she get out the line, 712 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 1: there's a thousand more right behind the So black women 713 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 1: don't give no damn cookie. Oh but he was praising 714 00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 1: his wife. Well, you can praise your wife, but keep 715 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 1: black women out of it. Brother, he spoke, and we 716 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 1: he didn't say me. He's spoken weak, meaning he was 717 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,560 Speaker 1: speaking on behalf of the collective. He said, black people, 718 00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:06,440 Speaker 1: when we see that you can withstand the fire that 719 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,360 Speaker 1: we've been through, she had a lot of strength. The 720 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 1: black women didn't know she had it. When we see 721 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:13,120 Speaker 1: that you can withstand the fire, we say, oh you 722 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 1: in it. Ain't that about a bitch?

Can you join us tomorrow on MSNBC. That 767 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 1: ain't high work. I've been on this microphone wall way 768 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:35,839 Speaker 1: before y'all knew me. Over a decade plus. I did 769 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 1: at a radio station Oklama City. I did talk radio 770 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 1: in Orlando for years. I've done it on blog talk radio, 771 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:45,440 Speaker 1: talking to myself on YouTube. I've been practicing on this 772 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 1: mic for a minute. My first show was called unscripted 773 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 1: in Dallas, Texas in two thousand four. Do you know 774 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:54,920 Speaker 1: what unscripted means? That means no script. I ain't never 775 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 1: needed no script. So what makes you think if I've 776 00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 1: been in the boxing rings, sparring for over twenty years, 777 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:04,440 Speaker 1: what makes you think that all of a sudden, because 778 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 1: you don't set up here and listen to somebody else 779 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 1: content that you think you can handle me, You're gonna 780 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:11,919 Speaker 1: get your ass knocked out. That's all that's gonna happen. 781 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:15,200 Speaker 1: You're gonna get knocked out. Telling you ain't always right, 782 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:16,880 Speaker 1: this ain't gonna do it always right. I'm saying I 783 00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:20,279 Speaker 1: gotta skilled. I'm skilled at this. Remember, every boxer is 784 00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:23,560 Speaker 1: not always the strongest. Every box is not always the best. 785 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,760 Speaker 1: But because they have a skill, because they practice a skill, 786 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:28,920 Speaker 1: they know exactly where they hit you. There was a 787 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:31,279 Speaker 1: time with Mike Tyson. You better hope you don't catch 788 00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:33,600 Speaker 1: that right, because if you catch that right, it's over with. 789 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: Shout out to Corey Jacobs in the building with the 790 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,759 Speaker 1: Bearer the Live Project.

I say please just to be nice. 933 00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:44,000 Speaker 1: But in all reality, I'm not begging and y'all to 934 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:49,000 Speaker 1: do nothing. I don't beg we boss. That's that's how 935 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:50,399 Speaker 1: I go.

Learn 937 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:54,839 Speaker 1: how to stop begging all the damn time, waiting white 938 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:57,319 Speaker 1: folks to save you, waiting on a man to save you, 939 00:52:57,440 --> 00:52:59,440 Speaker 1: waiting on a woman to save you, waiting on the 940 00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:02,239 Speaker 1: government to save you. We still can fight, but you 941 00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:04,759 Speaker 1: still have to self defend yourself, which is what this 942 00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:10,319 Speaker 1: message was about. But also self defend yourself economically, spiritually 943 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:12,440 Speaker 1: a defense. Remember we talked about that a couple of 944 00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:15,279 Speaker 1: weeks ago. I use the metaphor doctor Strange. You have 945 00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:17,759 Speaker 1: to put up a shield to guide and to get 946 00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:21,480 Speaker 1: negative energy, negative spirits out your life. Self defense is 947 00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:23,840 Speaker 1: just not by the weapon. It is by many many 948 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 1: things that are that you cannot see principalities that are 949 00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:30,360 Speaker 1: beyond just a weapon. But in the meantime, I noticed 950 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:34,359 Speaker 1: nine millimeter put you on your back if you come 951 00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:36,759 Speaker 1: in my household. So you have to figure out what 952 00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:39,480 Speaker 1: works for you and stop waiting to be affirmed all 953 00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 1: the damn time. Stand up, black woman and black man, 954 00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,359 Speaker 1: and mean and know what you mean, and say what 955 00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:48,360 Speaker 1: you mean and mean what you say, even if it 956 00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:51,440 Speaker 1: takes you losing it all. If you like me, I'm 957 00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:54,560 Speaker 1: used to not having nothing, So losing nothing ain't nothing, 958 00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:57,240 Speaker 1: because you know I don't. I don't want to lose nothing. 959 00:53:57,280 --> 00:53:59,160 Speaker 1: What what are you attached to?

They'll do you, y'all, 1022 00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:56,520 Speaker 1: don't think about that. See, they called him, but they 1023 00:56:56,560 --> 00:56:58,759 Speaker 1: don't want to take the case. That's that's why they 1024 00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:01,520 Speaker 1: called Atterney crump, because nobody else want to take the case. Dumbo, 1025 00:57:01,760 --> 00:57:04,160 Speaker 1: Oh we take all the cases. Well, do you think 1026 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:06,440 Speaker 1: that there's no attorney in your city? Do? What do 1027 00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 1: you think they're not? They're not um this the advertiser 1028 00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 1: is not sufficient.

Every 1030 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:16,920 Speaker 1: day and hip hop stations all over the country. You 1031 00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:20,440 Speaker 1: see billboards everywhere. So why is it that somebody got 1032 00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 1: to call Attorney Crump outside of the city. Why they 1033 00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:25,920 Speaker 1: don't call their local elected officials. Why they can't call 1034 00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:28,800 Speaker 1: the church and the clergy, Why they can't call the 1035 00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:31,280 Speaker 1: attorneys in your city? Were there to answer the question, 1036 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:35,680 Speaker 1: because they don't answer the damn call?

Ain't never met with 1040 00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:43,520 Speaker 1: the man. It is illegal, let me say, at one time, 1041 00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:48,560 Speaker 1: illegal for him to solicit any family. Attorneys don't solicit families. 1042 00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:52,320 Speaker 1: They'll lose their law log license. These families call him 1043 00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:57,640 Speaker 1: because when they call him, they have exhausted everything else 1044 00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:02,680 Speaker 1: because nobody, very few people want to fight the white 1045 00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:06,920 Speaker 1: supremacist system in your hometown. They don't mind fighting uh, 1046 00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:10,920 Speaker 1: slipping phones. They don't mind fighting since y'all say ambulance chasing, 1047 00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:13,400 Speaker 1: y'all all say that to your family being an ambulance. 1048 00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:17,400 Speaker 1: They don't mind fighting disability cases. They don't mind fighting 1049 00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:19,800 Speaker 1: that type of ship. But when it comes down to 1050 00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:22,120 Speaker 1: fighting police retally, you gotta fight the d A who 1051 00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:25,360 Speaker 1: they have lunch with You gotta fight, uh, the judges 1052 00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:28,240 Speaker 1: who they hope look at them favorably so they can 1053 00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:31,000 Speaker 1: get some of the motions passed.

Ask yourself, why is it 1058 00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:48,200 Speaker 1: that the local attorney ain't never on the microphone. Do 1059 00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:50,360 Speaker 1: you think it's because Attorney Crumb don't let him on 1060 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:52,560 Speaker 1: the microphone.

And let me tell you something else. 1123 01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:47,280 Speaker 1: You're gonna hear this for the next three weeks. If 1124 01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:48,920 Speaker 1: you don't like it, get used to it, or buckle 1125 01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:50,520 Speaker 1: up if you like it, because I'm gonna take you 1126 01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:52,360 Speaker 1: on this journey. Because he don't talk about it the 1127 01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:56,120 Speaker 1: way that I do. It all be a set up 1128 01:01:56,320 --> 01:02:00,400 Speaker 1: to get a settlement. Tell me when white's a premise 1129 01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:03,600 Speaker 1: he has ever in this country set up anything for 1130 01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:05,920 Speaker 1: our favor? Do you know that would mean that he 1131 01:02:05,960 --> 01:02:07,640 Speaker 1: would have to convince I just want you all to 1132 01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:10,120 Speaker 1: think about the ship that y'all say, when it's all 1133 01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:12,680 Speaker 1: a set up. Oh, when he gets the settlement, they 1134 01:02:12,720 --> 01:02:14,320 Speaker 1: do it, so make it go away. I want you 1135 01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:18,760 Speaker 1: to think about this. That means that Attorney Crump by 1136 01:02:18,880 --> 01:02:24,720 Speaker 1: himself would have to convince the judge to make it 1137 01:02:24,800 --> 01:02:27,840 Speaker 1: a set up. He would have to know in advance 1138 01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:31,960 Speaker 1: every jury, because the jury, by the way, besides how 1139 01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:34,560 Speaker 1: much punitive damages are. So he would have to know 1140 01:02:34,680 --> 01:02:37,920 Speaker 1: in advance every jury that's gonna be on there. And 1141 01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:40,520 Speaker 1: then he would have to go, I guess he is 1142 01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:43,320 Speaker 1: the mob. He would have to go tell the jury 1143 01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:47,120 Speaker 1: y'all better settle or else. And then he has to 1144 01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:49,920 Speaker 1: get the d A on his side. Hey, d A, 1145 01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:53,640 Speaker 1: let's all get on the whole District Attorney's office. Hundreds 1146 01:02:53,680 --> 01:02:55,440 Speaker 1: and hundreds that work in the DISGA attorney office. He 1147 01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:58,240 Speaker 1: would have to convince them to hey, y'all, mom's the word, 1148 01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:00,480 Speaker 1: let's all get on one accord so they can keep 1149 01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:04,480 Speaker 1: killing black people. That sounds ridiculous. He would have to 1150 01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:09,919 Speaker 1: single handedly change the system. The reason why the people 1151 01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:12,400 Speaker 1: get away with it is because the laws have been 1152 01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:15,640 Speaker 1: set up in place by design. So it's our job 1153 01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:18,920 Speaker 1: to continue to keep pushing the line for the lows. 1154 01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:22,920 Speaker 1: That's how you change the system. But in the meantime, yes, 1155 01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:26,720 Speaker 1: break the bank on their ass because guess what I 1156 01:03:26,880 --> 01:03:29,919 Speaker 1: believe as as long as they gotta keep paying that money, 1157 01:03:29,960 --> 01:03:32,840 Speaker 1: that's where the problems start. They don't give a shit 1158 01:03:32,920 --> 01:03:37,240 Speaker 1: about a George shop in our some uh collateral damage 1159 01:03:37,280 --> 01:03:39,720 Speaker 1: going to jail. That's just one less white boy fighting 1160 01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:42,240 Speaker 1: they wore. But when you start talking about breaking the 1161 01:03:42,320 --> 01:03:45,040 Speaker 1: bank on their ass, when you start talking about people 1162 01:03:45,080 --> 01:03:48,200 Speaker 1: having to pay, oh, it's totally different. And yes, I agree, 1163 01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:51,240 Speaker 1: it should be qualified immunity, so the taxpayers don't have 1164 01:03:51,280 --> 01:03:53,840 Speaker 1: to pay for it. Absolutely, it should come from the 1165 01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 1: police officers. So why don't y'all push that line? Did 1166 01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:01,400 Speaker 1: you know that quality thought immunity was ended in New 1167 01:04:01,520 --> 01:04:04,400 Speaker 1: York City? Did you know it was ended in Colorado? 1168 01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:07,840 Speaker 1: Those are facts. So it's not like it can't happen. Oh, 1169 01:04:08,040 --> 01:04:10,400 Speaker 1: you can't end because of the police union. Well, is 1170 01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:12,840 Speaker 1: there not a police union in Colorado? Is there not 1171 01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:15,280 Speaker 1: a police union in New York City? No? These people 1172 01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:17,440 Speaker 1: that be out of giving you this misinformation, they do 1173 01:04:17,560 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 1: it on purpose because they gotta keep you locked in 1174 01:04:19,360 --> 01:04:24,800 Speaker 1: to get them clicks. Just keeping it real. Let's deal 1175 01:04:24,880 --> 01:04:27,480 Speaker 1: with facts. If it can be changed there, then it 1176 01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:30,560 Speaker 1: can be changed somewhere else. Oh, Joe Biden can't sign 1177 01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:32,320 Speaker 1: no executive order? Well, how the hell do you just 1178 01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:34,240 Speaker 1: signed one on police reform two or three weeks ago? 1179 01:04:34,520 --> 01:04:36,840 Speaker 1: And no, it's not the police reform we need. It's fluff. 1180 01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:40,000 Speaker 1: It's a nothing burger, absolutely, But he's still damn signed 1181 01:04:40,040 --> 01:04:43,080 Speaker 1: it because I was pushing signed something. Damn it, do something. 1182 01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:44,760 Speaker 1: But y'all was in the comment you don't know how 1183 01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:47,520 Speaker 1: it works. He can't sign in hisxecutive order. Oh, we 1184 01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:49,800 Speaker 1: don't need an executive order because they're just gonna change 1185 01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:52,360 Speaker 1: it back. Well, guess what Republicans is gonna change it 1186 01:04:52,440 --> 01:04:55,480 Speaker 1: back anyway, dumbbo they're trying to change roeb Wade. How 1187 01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:57,400 Speaker 1: long has that ship been in place. They don't give 1188 01:04:57,440 --> 01:05:00,160 Speaker 1: a damn about changing laws back. They change laws back 1189 01:05:00,160 --> 01:05:01,919 Speaker 1: all the time they try to do with health care form. 1190 01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:04,000 Speaker 1: That's all they do is change it back. When they 1191 01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:06,920 Speaker 1: come in, they change it back. So you're not doing nothing. 1192 01:05:07,080 --> 01:05:09,040 Speaker 1: It's not gonna stop them from not changing it back. 1193 01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:11,120 Speaker 1: The bottom line is Joe Biden need to do something 1194 01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:13,520 Speaker 1: because he promised the family. He was looking in their 1195 01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:17,120 Speaker 1: eyes when he said it, and I guess the lordship 1196 01:05:17,160 --> 01:05:18,440 Speaker 1: have never fixed it that I was in the room, 1197 01:05:18,440 --> 01:05:20,880 Speaker 1: because I'm gonna keep reminding them. Why everybody else a's 1198 01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:23,280 Speaker 1: saying nothing, I'm gonna keep reminding them you was in 1199 01:05:23,320 --> 01:05:24,960 Speaker 1: the room, no home, because I heard you tell it, 1200 01:05:25,160 --> 01:05:27,800 Speaker 1: and nobody say, hey, are you gonna do something for us? 1201 01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:30,520 Speaker 1: They were sitting there grieving. He volunteered that line, So 1202 01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:33,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep reminding you, Hey, Homer, you volunteered that line. 1203 01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:35,240 Speaker 1: You're gonna do something, do what you can if the 1204 01:05:35,320 --> 01:05:37,760 Speaker 1: executable I understand that. No y'all weren't giving me no 1205 01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:40,200 Speaker 1: damn scholars telling me somebody. You know. That's just on 1206 01:05:40,280 --> 01:05:42,160 Speaker 1: the federal level, of course, But he needs to do 1207 01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:45,160 Speaker 1: what he said he was gonna do. And then after that, 1208 01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:47,160 Speaker 1: pick up the phone and get states to do it, 1209 01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:49,160 Speaker 1: because you damn so got states to core less behind 1210 01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:52,320 Speaker 1: getting you elected. They called all of the politicians all 1211 01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:56,760 Speaker 1: over this damn country. I worked with nothing but politicians 1212 01:05:56,800 --> 01:06:01,120 Speaker 1: elected officials. They core lest everybody around this country to 1213 01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:03,520 Speaker 1: get on board, just like they're doing with voters. Right. 1214 01:06:03,720 --> 01:06:06,000 Speaker 1: They know how to coalesce do you mean tim, they'll 1215 01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:08,080 Speaker 1: know not to collect, but that's their job though they're federal. 1216 01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:10,400 Speaker 1: But why they don't say that when they're calling these 1217 01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:13,520 Speaker 1: local city commissioners and county commissioners or you know, we 1218 01:06:13,560 --> 01:06:15,080 Speaker 1: need you on the same page. We need to support 1219 01:06:15,120 --> 01:06:16,880 Speaker 1: Joe bid. Why do they do that? They know how 1220 01:06:16,920 --> 01:06:18,240 Speaker 1: to coalest when it's time to get you to go 1221 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:21,000 Speaker 1: to the polls. Why they can coalesce around policy whether 1222 01:06:21,120 --> 01:06:23,240 Speaker 1: ain't they John It Also, ain't they job to coalest 1223 01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:24,440 Speaker 1: to get people to vote with them? But they do 1224 01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:29,680 Speaker 1: that too. So start a damn movement and say, hey, Colorado, 1225 01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:33,480 Speaker 1: work with Oklahoma. Hey Oklahoma, work with Missouri. Hey Missouri, 1226 01:06:33,560 --> 01:06:36,200 Speaker 1: work with a level. We gotta figure out something to 1227 01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:39,400 Speaker 1: get some of this ship passed because if nothing gets passed, 1228 01:06:39,600 --> 01:06:41,640 Speaker 1: they're gonna start thinking we're on bullshit. But guess what 1229 01:06:41,760 --> 01:06:43,880 Speaker 1: we've been doing? You on bullshit? But can I also 1230 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 1: tell you that a hundred cities have passed some type 1231 01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:48,800 Speaker 1: of police reform since the murder of George Floyd, So 1232 01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:51,560 Speaker 1: there is some change. They don't talk about that either. 1233 01:06:52,360 --> 01:06:54,720 Speaker 1: They gotta be the dumbest dumb bolls ever because to me, 1234 01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:56,720 Speaker 1: I will be talking about the change. They don't wanna 1235 01:06:56,720 --> 01:06:58,320 Speaker 1: talk about the change because they still think like the 1236 01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:00,680 Speaker 1: pimp game. They think they gotta keep you down and 1237 01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:03,400 Speaker 1: not motivated. Oh, nothing to ever change, none ever change 'all. 1238 01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:04,800 Speaker 1: Come on, come on, come on, show up? Getting fired 1239 01:07:04,840 --> 01:07:06,520 Speaker 1: all this because nothing we need to change, change change. 1240 01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:09,480 Speaker 1: They're not realizing that that's backfiring. People need to actually 1241 01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:12,360 Speaker 1: know that something is happening. Otherwise, why am I? Why 1242 01:07:12,360 --> 01:07:13,840 Speaker 1: am I gonna keep showing up to the fight. It's 1243 01:07:13,880 --> 01:07:15,840 Speaker 1: like the dog the boy to cry wolf, give me 1244 01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:17,800 Speaker 1: a reason to show up to the fight if you 1245 01:07:17,920 --> 01:07:20,240 Speaker 1: keep showing up an abusive relationship, but she keep going 1246 01:07:20,320 --> 01:07:22,560 Speaker 1: back toward the following week. At some point the brother 1247 01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:24,280 Speaker 1: gonna be like, well, ship, you like it. I love it. 1248 01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:26,360 Speaker 1: But if I'll show up and you swing on them 1249 01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:28,360 Speaker 1: you do something, well, hey, I might be willing to 1250 01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:30,760 Speaker 1: fight with you. They haven't figured out their concept yet, 1251 01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:32,760 Speaker 1: so they don't. They only want to pick and choose 1252 01:07:32,960 --> 01:07:35,040 Speaker 1: and tell you the good things that they're doing when 1253 01:07:35,080 --> 01:07:36,800 Speaker 1: they come to everybody else. But why they don't want 1254 01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:38,600 Speaker 1: people to know the police reform has been in place, 1255 01:07:39,240 --> 01:07:41,280 Speaker 1: that a hundred cities have changed places for him? Are 1256 01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:43,360 Speaker 1: they are they afraid that the white folks may not 1257 01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:45,560 Speaker 1: like it. Do they not want to call attention to that? 1258 01:07:45,760 --> 01:07:47,560 Speaker 1: Seem like they want to call attention to that. So 1259 01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:49,800 Speaker 1: those are the questions that you should be asking. And 1260 01:07:49,920 --> 01:07:52,080 Speaker 1: people who don't want you to know that and only 1261 01:07:52,160 --> 01:07:54,320 Speaker 1: want you to know what's not happening, you have to 1262 01:07:54,360 --> 01:07:56,360 Speaker 1: look at their motives too, even if they're pro black, 1263 01:07:56,600 --> 01:07:59,760 Speaker 1: because sometimes people's motives is to keep you angry and upset. 1264 01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:02,080 Speaker 1: It's called two things can be done at the same time. 1265 01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:07,160 Speaker 1: Stay mad every day, celebrate when you can, have joined 1266 01:08:07,200 --> 01:08:11,520 Speaker 1: when you can, laugh when you can, drink when you can. 1267 01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:14,560 Speaker 1: But the next day you get up and you fight. 1268 01:08:15,080 --> 01:08:18,040 Speaker 1: Learn how to have a balance.
