You 54 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: know you have a strong voice in the media landscape 55 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,679 Speaker 1: or you would you say you a political influencer or 56 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:06,839 Speaker 1: a brand influencer? UM, I would say neither. I would 57 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: say that I am an advocate. UM that I'm someone 58 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: who fights diligently for macro and micro level change. Um 59 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: growing up in the house with an with an activists, 60 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,399 Speaker 1: so UM, I don't really see myself as an influencer. 61 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 1: People are influenced the great um. I bet my My 62 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: primary goal in life is to make things better for 63 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: for human beings, for human kind. And I say that 64 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,519 Speaker 1: I focused most of that energy are making things better 65 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: for black folks. Well, you're doing a good job, a 66 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: great job, Angela. And I'm a marketing guru, as they say, 67 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: I'm a brand specialist, and I have to say you 68 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: are an influencer, especially when I saw the video that 69 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: that was posted on the Washington Post that you did 70 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: with Latasha Brown and Tiffany Cross and and Alicia Gaza 71 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: and the Sonny and you saw it for the man 72 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: the seals in that article talking about Biden still needs 73 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: black women and here are a few things he needs 74 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: to do. Now, that article is an influencing article to me. 75 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: And so that's why that's a good thing. There's nothing 76 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: negative about being influenced as far as I'm concerned, because 77 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: you build your brand to say that you know and 78 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: your voice I think stands out and so when when 79 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 1: I have you on the show, because you are influence. 80 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: You're a person who who moves the needle, as they say, 81 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 1: and so talking to talk us about that, tell us 82 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: about that that that the video that's on, watching the post, 83 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: and talk us about why why black women are so 84 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 1: important to the bad efforts to get back into the 85 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: White House, to get getting the White House. First he 86 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: was the vice president, but this time he'd like to 87 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 1: go back as the president. Yeah, I think, Um, it's 88 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,039 Speaker 1: really really clear, um, And that's why to me, it 89 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: was so easy for me to write that piece with 90 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: my sister. Um, some of whom you know are on 91 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: top shows and others who run various platforms. There are 92 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: activists in there, all right. And what's very clear that 93 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: you know, election after election, black women, black people really 94 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: do so much to ensure um that Democrats aren't in 95 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: a position of power that um, you know, they win 96 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: and so often our thinks is that they are there, 97 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: but our thinks is not in them meeting agenda items 98 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 1: that would be required of any other voter who knows 99 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: that their vote is worthy of something. Um. You know, 100 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: as an attorney, you learn um that uh, in a 101 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: contract there is a bargain for exchange, and a bargain 102 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,359 Speaker 1: for exchange means that I will give you something, but 103 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,919 Speaker 1: in return I get something, and we're telling them the 104 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 1: things that we need in return. UM. Part of what 105 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: is unfortunate for this particular campaign is that it comes 106 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: years and years and generations after this bargain for exchange 107 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: hasn't really been bargained for, and in fact, there hasn't 108 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 1: been exchange and exchange at all. There's just been a 109 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: repeated gift, a gifting of the of our voting power, UM, 110 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: and it hasn't been rewarded. And so we're saying it's 111 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: time out for that UM, and it has to be 112 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: right now. I think that what's happened was coronavirus has 113 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 1: certainly shined a bright light on UM the inequities that 114 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: exist in this country, and it has made us say, 115 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: you know no more, you know it's time for something 116 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 1: very different to happen. And that's surely because of our 117 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 1: our need to survive and to thrive in this country, 118 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: which I totally agree on pace with you with that. Now, 119 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,359 Speaker 1: there are three things he needs to do for black 120 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 1: women in particular, black people overall. But let's talk about 121 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: this articles about black women, and that's the first one. 122 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: America needs a black woman as Vice President. M H. 123 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: That was your first comment. Do you have a person 124 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: or at least some options you'd like to recommend. I 125 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 1: actually think that going into who the options are is 126 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: a distraction right now, because the principle is in just 127 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: getting them to agree that we are worthy of that right, 128 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 1: that we are worthy of UH, a VP that looks 129 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: just like us, who is representing our best interest. It's 130 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: not that any black woman would do right. It is 131 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: that there are an abundance of qualified black women to 132 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: choose from. And so don't you don't get to say 133 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: this time that you don't have anybody who's qualified. You 134 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: don't get to say this time that you don't have 135 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: anyone who's experienced. That is not true. And so that's 136 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: what we wanted to focus on. UM, it's been a 137 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: listening and they mean name awesome. And the other other 138 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: two was American needs a black female Supreme Court justice. 139 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: Your comments, yes, yes, And we we tied that specifically 140 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: to UM what happened with UM Clarence Thomas's confirmation hearing. 141 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: And you know this is the yes. This was supposed 142 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: to be Um. You know, the man who was replacing 143 00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: and fulfilling the legacy of thurgand Marshall, and instead he's, 144 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 1: for lack of a better term, I'll say, pooh pooed 145 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: on it, Um, So I'll cut on your show. And 146 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: the other thing that we have is, yes, Anita Hill. 147 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: And it's not just that Anita Hill was shamed before 148 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: the Judiciary committee that Joe Biden chairs, because she also 149 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: got a half hearted apology only after he announced his 150 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: campaign for running for president this time. So we certainly 151 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 1: go Anita Hill. And I gotta be honest with you 152 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: and say, even though I'm not naming name, it's sure 153 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: would be poetic justice to have Anita Hill on that bench. 154 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: I don't know that you would want it, but wow, 155 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 1: that would be something that would be awesome. Now, the 156 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: third one, which I think was not so much driven 157 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: by female but just a black agenda, period of comprehensive 158 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 1: black agenda, is tied to the physical violence that's being 159 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: just just we're sleeping in our bedrooms and police officers 160 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 1: just coming in, and you're jogging down the street and 161 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: people just randomly just shooting you. You You getting choked out 162 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: in New York it's just so in the backyard of 163 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: Sack of Sacramento getting shot a hundred times, there's just 164 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: so many and so many rotine things. And I tell you, 165 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: as a black man, I do think about that. I do. 166 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: I do have concerns. I do have concerns. I want 167 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: to walk around with a with a mask on because 168 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: of the pandemic times that we live in. Can somebody 169 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: be stupid that day? And I want to question why 170 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: I have a mask on when everybody else has a 171 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: mask on. And so let's talk about that. The comprehensive 172 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: Black agenda. Yeah, And I think that this is this 173 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: part is really straightforward to you know, regardless of who 174 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 1: is in power, Black people have some um certain needs 175 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: based on our historic positioning in this country that dated 176 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 1: that dates back to four hundred plus years um of 177 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:45,199 Speaker 1: institutional uh of slavery, um that goes to Jim Crow, 178 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: that goes to redlining, that goes to mask incarceration. There 179 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 1: are some systemic wrongs that have uniquely um taken place 180 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 1: for black people that need to be addressed. And it 181 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,719 Speaker 1: needs to be addressed whether there is a Republican, a Democrat, 182 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: a libertarian, a tea part whoever it is into the 183 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: position of power. This needs to be addressed, and I 184 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: would argue at every level. For Sean, it needs to 185 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: be at the local level. That's what I'm saying. I'm 186 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: talking to local. I'm just going to progress and I'm worried. Okay, Yes, 187 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: I understand, and I'm just agreeing with you that. Yeah, 188 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 1: that is indeed the case that we have to start saying. Hey, 189 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 1: and this isn't just about UM racial injustice, UM through 190 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: a societal or a social lens um or through you know, 191 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: the less of a criminal justice reform plan. It is 192 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: also about our economic empowerment UM, our economic opportunity. My 193 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: dad is called for years for a specific satisfide and 194 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: designation for people who are the descendants of the United 195 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: States enslaved. He now says, he says, we should not 196 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 1: say slaves anymore. It should be enslaved because they put 197 00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: the onus on the slave, um, the slave holder to 198 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: say enslaved. And so UM, that is that is one 199 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: of the things that should be done. UM. There should 200 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: be a robust agency like the Minority Business Development Agency 201 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:16,959 Speaker 1: that specifically addresses the needs of black business. UM. So 202 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: there's I mean, there's so many things that need to 203 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: be addressed. Livable wage, um you know, access to healthcare 204 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: or you know free healthcare, Medicare for all would certainly 205 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: helped black people. And so often we shy away from 206 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 1: what is u beinged as progressive. It is called socialist policy, 207 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,839 Speaker 1: and that is because people don't want to have to 208 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 1: repay the debts that are owed to black people. But 209 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: those are the things that would help us, which is amazing. 210 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 1: Before we wrap up here, how did all the all 211 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: of the individuals.

We 255 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 1: held Black Women Speak and from that UM just grew 256 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: this sisterhood and UM it was expanded to include some 257 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: two women in the field who are doing the work 258 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 1: every day, and that is UM Latasha Brown who rust 259 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: Black Voters Matter and frankly helped to secure the victory 260 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: for Doug Jones and that senest site in Alabama. And 261 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 1: then also Alicia Garza who we referred to in the 262 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: article UM for Black Futures Lab. They've they've developed this 263 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: agenda Sean. That was UM built upon serving thirty thousand 264 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: Black people all over the country. It's the largest survey 265 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: of black people in a hundred and fifty five years. 266 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: And UM that is where the policy recommendations come from 267 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: in that agenda, and we say, hey, this is a 268 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 1: good place to start your list. Every voice agenda is 269 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: not sufficient. It does not even scribe the surface on 270 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: what we needed black people. But Alicia's Alicia, Alicia Garza's 271 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: UM plan does and so we asked them to participate 272 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: in this with us because we know that their voices 273 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 1: are powerful. We know they represent the interests of the culture. 274 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: UM from a grassroots and an organizing standpoint and certainly 275 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: from an advocate advocacy perspective, that's amazing.

You know, 314 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: I've been uh invited on a lot of shows. I've 315 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: somewhat become a pandemic expert, especially when I look at 316 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: the plight of the people of color and especially African Americans. 317 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: What bothers you the most, how the media is kind 318 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 1: of like suppressed it, and really it had one little 319 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 1: moment in the sun and then it's like hit the 320 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: back burner after that because you can't grab any more stats. 321 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 1: I can't find them about how and I have to 322 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: do deep reach, deep dyve research to find out a 323 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: breakdown on how blacks are still being overtly affected by 324 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 1: the you know, the holding virus. Tell us your impact 325 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: or your feelings on that. But you know what I 326 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 1: think it's so fascinating about this is an opportunity for 327 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 1: us to lift up another Black woman, um Ayanna Presley, 328 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 1: who is a first term congresswoman from Massachusetts, who took 329 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: it upon herself to say, I need to know how 330 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 1: black people are being impacted by this virus. And so 331 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 1: you're going to pull data that shows me what that 332 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 1: adverse impact and that disproportionate impact is. And so thanks Guyana, 333 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 1: we will see those numbers. They will not be able 334 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: to hide. Um. And I think it's really important for 335 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: us to understand the importance of having advocates both in 336 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: the streets and in the halls of Congress. Um. And 337 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: she's one in the halls of Congress who's doing that work, 338 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: and it's so important that we continue to lift that up. 339 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: I think the other things that we have to see 340 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: as are the ianas that are making that same case 341 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,360 Speaker 1: on the state level, right, so we understand how we're 342 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: faring in the state. UM. It was discussed on seeing 343 00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 1: it last night, actually that black people currently, of course, 344 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,720 Speaker 1: you make up twelve percent of the overall demographics in 345 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 1: this country, but we make up more than twenty seven 346 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 1: percent of the of the COVID cases per cent. That 347 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,479 Speaker 1: is large, and it's of course disproportionate. We have a 348 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,679 Speaker 1: lot of the underlying conditions, which means we are putting 349 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 1: ourselves in harms, in harm's way, and we're overwhelmingly essential 350 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: workers right um, and for whatever reason, they still have 351 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: not um bridged that gap between what it means to 352 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 1: be an essential worker and an essential life. You know, 353 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 1: it's really it's amazing, you know, because just to give 354 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: some more status to that, there was people here that 355 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,199 Speaker 1: I even I was talking. Numbers don't lie. You know, 356 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 1: in Chicago of the residents of the black of the 357 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,679 Speaker 1: COVID nighteen deaths are blacks. Seven out of ten COVID 358 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 1: deaths and new allus in the state of Louisiana have 359 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 1: been black. When that report came out in April, people 360 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,360 Speaker 1: can understand now once you read the report. While Mary 361 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 1: Kesha last Bottom was upset when you see that eight 362 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 1: percent of the hospitalized COVID and a teen patients and 363 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 1: Georgia were black, and the numbers go on and on. 364 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,479 Speaker 1: That came out and and when Georgia opened up, you know, 365 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: he opened Georgia three days before that CDC report came out. 366 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 1: So that was that was a strategy all along, that 367 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,479 Speaker 1: it didn't matter about black people. I'm gonna move forward. 368 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: I have no plan to save rask black people, have 369 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: no plan to help out black people. It's about me 370 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 1: and my agenda. And that's really what disturbed you, the 371 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,360 Speaker 1: motion that when I hear about what you what you 372 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 1: did in the Washington Post, and you talk about the agenda, 373 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: that's what we're saying. If we're gonna give about vote, 374 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: get something back this time in writing and righting and 375 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 1: otherwise she's just gonna sit back and go they're gonna 376 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 1: go through the motions again and again another four years, 377 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 1: and they're gonna come back to us with the same stale. 378 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,880 Speaker 1: We need your plan and we're gonna deliver because the other, 379 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 1: the other option doesn't even have an option for us, 380 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: it doesn't exist. And so I really appreciate you your 381 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 1: honesty when you talk about these things. But before we wrap, 382 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 1: I saw all freedom freedom t shirt of freedom hoodies 383 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 1: yea for women. Talk to us about that before you 384 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: get out of here, because you know, I really appreciate 385 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: a person who who Who's Who's Who's branding. That's what 386 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: we're talking about, Brandon, branding your message, branding your reputation, 387 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: branding your tone. Talk about the freedom line? So, um, 388 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: what the overall line? I guess it's just my stuff. 389 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: But I have this affinity to T shirts and apparel 390 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: that have affirmations on them. Um. My good friend be 391 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 1: Mike out of New Orleans has a shirt that says, 392 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: I am my ancestors wildest dreams, Um, wildest dreams. And 393 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 1: I feel like I want people to know how I 394 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 1: feel about myself by what I'm wearing. And I want 395 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: to remind myself how I feel about myself. So, um, 396 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 1: one journey that I've been on for some time is 397 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 1: just freedom and what does it really mean? And how 398 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,159 Speaker 1: do you really like tap into a boldly walk in 399 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: your freedom and in liberation?

A hat trick is three, But in this metaphor, 458 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 1: great savings counts as two goals, and so does around 459 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 1: the clock protection, so it's like four goals and that's 460 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 1: more than three.
