Speaker 1: What's up. Family, it's your girl to Mika d Mallory.
Speaker 2: Is your boy, my son general and we are your.
Speaker 1: Hosts of street politicians the place with politics. I'm supposed
Speaker 1: to be being on a little bit of a No,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I guess it is a vacation. Anytime
Speaker 1: you leave the country and you are at a birthday,
Speaker 1: it's supposed to be vacation, right, y'all. Don't y'all don't
Speaker 1: believe in vacation.
Speaker 3: No, I don't believe in vacation. They believe that you're
Speaker 3: will to get them a show. Oh, based yeah, based
Speaker 3: on what we call contractual obligations. We're gonna go and
Speaker 3: put this good old yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and we actually get shows off. But it's funny
Speaker 1: how when you're competitive and you also strive for excellence,
Speaker 1: even though they give you a certain amount of shows
Speaker 1: you don't have to do, we still be.
Speaker 2: Still try to do them all.
Speaker 1: You definitely, I'll be the one to be like, it's
Speaker 1: no show today, and you'll be like, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: gotta do it.
Speaker 3: You gotta do it, because it's the truth. With the
Speaker 3: number one show in the world. When you're the number
Speaker 3: one show in the world.
Speaker 1: Continue to oh, please anyway as I sit in my
Speaker 1: little vacation spot, which sometimes it might be a little noisy,
Speaker 1: so please excuse me. I wanted to just start out
Speaker 1: by sending a lot of love and support and sadness
Speaker 1: and just everything all you could think of to the
Speaker 1: family of Imani Robertson last week, her family reached out
Speaker 1: to me asking if I could help them to raise
Speaker 1: the profile of her being missing, the case of her
Speaker 1: being missing. She had gone missing, and then I believe
Speaker 1: that it sort of all happened at the same time
Speaker 1: where her car was found torched, and you know, I
Speaker 1: think that kind of really put a damper on the
Speaker 1: search efforts. Like every you know, a lot of people
Speaker 1: didn't say it, but I'm sure folks were thinking, damn,
Speaker 1: if her car was found torched, more than likely her
Speaker 1: life was taken, and that was sort of like a
Speaker 1: cover up of evidence or whatnot. It's pretty sad. And
Speaker 1: so she you know, has four children, four beautiful children,
Speaker 1: including a newborn who was with the person of interest
Speaker 1: or the person who has now been arrested, which is
Speaker 1: his father, slashed her husband, Imani's husband. He's been arrested.
Speaker 1: The police believed that he is responsible for her murder,
Speaker 1: and he had the baby with him, this infant baby,
Speaker 1: very small, small baby. I'm not sure exactly how old
Speaker 1: the baby is. And her family member sent me a
Speaker 1: picture of the reunification of the children and the baby,
Speaker 1: and it just, you know, so sad. Just looking at
Speaker 1: the kids, you could tell that, you know, they have
Speaker 1: been traumatized by probably the separation from their mom. And
Speaker 1: also I don't know whether they had been told exactly
Speaker 1: what was going on, but they looked like they knew
Speaker 1: something really bad happened to their mother in this picture.
Speaker 1: And I sat there and looked at it for a
Speaker 1: while and was just thinking, you know, if you really
Speaker 1: get down to the nitty gritty, as they say, of
Speaker 1: what happened to Imani and why if he did kill her,
Speaker 1: which it looks like all roads lead to him. But
Speaker 1: if you look at if you you know, really try
Speaker 1: to get to the nitty gritty of it and understand why,
Speaker 1: I bet you it's just the most ridiculous foolishness, you know,
Speaker 1: probably an attempt to control, an attempt to you know,
Speaker 1: silence her voice or what have you. You know, even
Speaker 1: if she did something to him, even if she anything
Speaker 1: short of her, you know, obviously taking the life of
Speaker 1: her children or sexually assaulting the children, which even in
Speaker 1: that case, I still don't believe that, you know, murdering
Speaker 1: her was the right thing to do. However, I feel
Speaker 1: like it's probably so foolish. Whatever the reason is for
Speaker 1: why this woman was murdered. So that's just you know,
Speaker 1: just my thoughts on it.
Speaker 2: Now. It's really sad, man. I was looking at it,
Speaker 2: and it's like.
Speaker 3: It's like an overload of situations with you know, woman
Speaker 3: to be killed, mothers are being killed, you know, for
Speaker 3: some reason. It seems like relationships are going bad, and
Speaker 3: even kids are like it's I don't know, I think
Speaker 3: I say all the time, man, we in a like
Speaker 3: a war for our souls.
Speaker 2: Like this ship is very it's like a demonic time.
Speaker 3: When you look at all of the stuff that's happening,
Speaker 3: it'd be like it's coming from a dark place, you know.
Speaker 3: And that's why a lot of people it's mad at
Speaker 3: you know, the colleague the college Russell's situation, and they
Speaker 3: were like, you know, there's too much things going on
Speaker 3: and that's why she can't be doing these things.
Speaker 2: And I agree with it, but at the same time.
Speaker 3: We still every time situations like this arise, I don't
Speaker 3: know if it's if it's.
Speaker 2: A false alarm, I don't know if somebody is lying.
Speaker 3: But every time that I think that one of our
Speaker 3: women are in trouble, I'm going to utilize my platform,
Speaker 3: my voice to try to figure out because there's situations
Speaker 3: like this, you know that we see happen way more
Speaker 3: often than somebody who's not actually telling the truth. So
Speaker 3: my you know, my condolences goes out to the family,
Speaker 3: you know, and it's really it's just really sad man.
Speaker 2: It's really sad man.
Speaker 3: And I don't I don't know what the mindsetate of
Speaker 3: the individual is that that commits this type of prim
Speaker 3: like I just I don't know. I just I've never
Speaker 3: been that angry in a relationship on mad.
Speaker 2: I don't know what.
Speaker 3: I don't know what it looks like to be that
Speaker 3: mad with someone that you supposedly once and are in
Speaker 3: love with that you just want to take their life.
Speaker 3: I just don't know what. I don't know what that
Speaker 3: looks like. You know that that's that has I don't
Speaker 3: want my mother used to say. My mother used to
Speaker 3: always say, I don't want nobody loved me to death.
Speaker 3: You know, don't love me to death, man, because that's
Speaker 3: that's very strange. They love me to life man, love life,
Speaker 3: and you know what.
Speaker 2: Too much.
Speaker 1: And I love me so much that I don't want
Speaker 1: to go to jail for the rest of my life
Speaker 1: for taking your life or doing something that causes me.
Speaker 1: You know, while I'm trying to harm you, I end
Speaker 1: up harming myself. I don't want that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and nobody should want that. Like I say
Speaker 3: that old time. Like I've had conversations where I've heard
Speaker 3: you know, and it's more often and not saying because
Speaker 3: it doesn't happen, but I've I've had conversations with women.
Speaker 2: Who are detrimental, want to be detrimental to themselves because
Speaker 2: relationship is not going right, and they say, oh, everything's
Speaker 2: going bad, I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna do that.
Speaker 2: I'm like you doing all.
Speaker 3: That that ain't gonna change whatever the dick out there doing,
Speaker 3: he ain't gonna When you think because you you, you
Speaker 3: make yourself worse, you hurt yourself, you know, you destroy
Speaker 3: your body, You do all of this shit that's gonna
Speaker 3: make him want you more.
Speaker 2: Well, he's still gonna be up there with Susan, you know.
Speaker 2: So I don't know. I don't understan And.
Speaker 3: I'm not saying it's men that and now men who
Speaker 3: have the same mindset. I just you know, you know,
Speaker 3: unfortunately or.
Speaker 1: Fortunately understand it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't come in content, but I still don't
Speaker 3: understand it. And I'm never going to understand.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 2: You know, it hurts.
Speaker 3: You should be hurt. You in a relationship, things don't
Speaker 3: go right. There should be a level of pain. There
Speaker 3: should be disappointment, and I'm not saying that, but it
Speaker 3: should never reach the point to where you when you
Speaker 3: want to alive yourself or somebody else, or you want
Speaker 3: to be detrimental. I just I just don't see it.
Speaker 3: I just don't see it.
Speaker 1: And you mentioned Charlie Russell, and I'm thinking, you know,
Speaker 1: the same thing with her. It's like her boyfriend or
Speaker 1: ex boyfriend. Who if this is true, Like we still
Speaker 1: haven't heard the reason why she did what she did.
Speaker 1: But if what the Internet says is true was that
Speaker 1: she was attempting to get the attention of him, then
Speaker 1: he's at the club this weekend, this past weekend, you know,
Speaker 1: talking about he's looking to find love, So no matter
Speaker 1: whether you could do all this jump up and down.
Speaker 1: And I'm and you know, we're using Carly as an example,
Speaker 1: but this is just in general that you know, we
Speaker 1: end up, especially as women, almost killing ourselves attempting to
Speaker 1: be with people that have already shown us that they
Speaker 1: don't want us, you know. And I think there's a
Speaker 1: saying that I've heard many times, which is that you
Speaker 1: can't try to keep somebody by giving them something more
Speaker 1: of what they already don't want.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: And so you know, it's like save yourself, sist. But
Speaker 1: speaking of Carly Russell, one of the things that I
Speaker 1: was talking about or of during the week last week
Speaker 1: on My Life was this new found energy that the
Speaker 1: Alabama Legislature has to start discussing making false reporting a felony.
Speaker 1: And you know, it's one of the reasons why, you know,
Speaker 1: just being in this movement and in this work and
Speaker 1: being a conscious of society, because there's certainly the difference
Speaker 1: between being conscious and being unconscious. Not that you're not
Speaker 1: alive or that you're not progressive and doing positive things
Speaker 1: every day, but consciousness means that you are in tune
Speaker 1: and tap into what is happening racially, politically, socially, that
Speaker 1: you're conscious on those levels, which means that you have
Speaker 1: an opinion, that you understand, and that you are engaged
Speaker 1: in some way, shape or form, and not so much
Speaker 1: a movement, but just engaged at the table understanding, making moves,
Speaker 1: making discussions or creating discussions, and then being involved in
Speaker 1: discussions and especially in your professional spaces, making sure that
Speaker 1: if you have power, that you are looking at how
Speaker 1: to help shift the power dynamics towards people who are
Speaker 1: most marginalized. So that's what consciousness looks like, and being
Speaker 1: a conscious member of society ready for thirty plus years
Speaker 1: of my life, as my parents started me in the movement,
Speaker 1: I'm always very cautious about how much I jump on
Speaker 1: the bandwagon to support the vilification and you know, villainizing
Speaker 1: and tearing down and just whatever of other black folks,
Speaker 1: especially black people who are just regular folks, you know,
Speaker 1: just just regular people making it happen every day, who
Speaker 1: do dumb shit, make bad decisions, you know, and just
Speaker 1: you know, and whatever. So people like that, I'm always
Speaker 1: very cautious of it. And with Carly, I also had
Speaker 1: a level of grace because I thought about my own situations,
Speaker 1: about my own life, and I know what it looks
Speaker 1: like to do really dumb, dumb, stupid, super dumb stuff.
Speaker 1: And so I've said that a million times. But what
Speaker 1: I also realized is that white folks love to use
Speaker 1: the voice of black people and the energy of black
Speaker 1: folks too condemn, correct, assault, and ultimately lynch black people.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 1: And so what's an example of that. Just let's go
Speaker 1: back and think about what happened with the crime build
Speaker 1: the nineties, right. You think about how they explain it
Speaker 1: and how they talk about it now that they know
Speaker 1: it was catastrophic for the black community. The first thing
Speaker 1: you hear them say was other black people wanted it.
Speaker 1: Black pastors, black community leaders, just everyday black people were
Speaker 1: looking for a way to deal with crack.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: And you know, I push back on that all the
Speaker 1: time because they bring that up right now around this
Speaker 1: whole idea of more policing in our communities. They're using
Speaker 1: oh well, the black seniors, the elders in the community,
Speaker 1: the church folks or whatever they are the ones calling
Speaker 1: for more police. No, what black people want is safety.
Speaker 1: They want to feel safe, and safety does not mean policing.
Speaker 3: The problem with that is, unfortunately, our community doesn't understand,
Speaker 3: not not just our community especially, it's our elderly community.
Speaker 1: Like you.
Speaker 3: If you think about older people in our community, what
Speaker 3: safety looks like to them is police. They've been taught
Speaker 3: that you call the police. Something go wrong, you call
Speaker 3: the police, right, And a lot of them either were unified.
Speaker 3: So what happened was when they see when they don't
Speaker 3: see unity unity within the community, they don't they don't
Speaker 3: see it like they used to when.
Speaker 2: They were younger.
Speaker 3: We took care of each other, We fought side by
Speaker 3: side with each other. They see these young kids outside
Speaker 3: beefing with each other, gunshots, people getting killed. So in
Speaker 3: their mind, there's no real unity, right, there's no real unity.
Speaker 3: So the only course of safety is in their perception
Speaker 3: is that the police can come save them and and
Speaker 3: the reality is that's not the reality. Right, So they've
Speaker 3: been able to sell that, and then you have a
Speaker 3: lot of older politicians that keep selling that, and they're
Speaker 3: engaged in the process of voting. They engage in the
Speaker 3: government because they understand their points, They understand what it
Speaker 3: took to get to voter, so they fully engaged. So
Speaker 3: when they hear politicians, and they talk about safety, and
Speaker 3: the only thing they talk about safety is how the
Speaker 3: police have to do this, and if we need police
Speaker 3: presidence here and we need police presidence there, And they said, well,
Speaker 3: if that's the safety, then we need to get that done.
Speaker 2: You know, they're not right.
Speaker 1: But they've never seen yeah, they've never they've never been
Speaker 1: presented with other options for what safety truly looks like.
Speaker 1: They've not been presented with that, So they therefore lean
Speaker 1: towards what a white supremacist society teaches versus what we
Speaker 1: have always known as a people, which is to take
Speaker 1: care of your own and to do in your own
Speaker 1: communities what's needed for there to be wholeness. Because if
Speaker 1: people are whole, they can also ensure safety exactly.
Speaker 2: And the reality is you can't.
Speaker 3: You can't ensure safety because police don't prevent. You know
Speaker 3: that they're not they're not skilled or trained or even
Speaker 3: actually their focus is not to come before the crime
Speaker 3: is committed or before you know, to make sure that
Speaker 3: the community it's like your household. You have to you
Speaker 3: got a baby in your household. You gotta make sure
Speaker 3: that the debate is baby proof. You gotta put foam
Speaker 3: here you gotta make sure the socas is closed.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: You're only gonna call the police after something happened to
Speaker 3: the baby. So the police is not gonna give the safety.
Speaker 3: Is you that's actually presenting the safety. Just like that's
Speaker 3: how we have to have guardrails in our communities. We
Speaker 3: got to put things in our communities that are sure
Speaker 3: that the atmosphere is safe so we don't have to
Speaker 3: call the police. And then they gotta come and arrest somebody,
Speaker 3: or gotta come and pick up the carnage, or gotta
Speaker 3: come try to rectify a situation before after this already
Speaker 3: you know out of hand, no.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And so now the Alabama legislature is into hating
Speaker 1: any idea of making false reporting a federal crime. And
Speaker 1: I'm thinking to myself making it a felony rather a felanine.
Speaker 1: And I was thinking to myself, Wow, what they will use,
Speaker 1: how they will use us against us, is that now
Speaker 1: that a black woman has made a false report, they
Speaker 1: want to change the laws. And yet Alabama, Alabama is
Speaker 1: the state of where white women have done false reporting.
Speaker 1: I'm just thinking about the movie Oh My God, and
Speaker 1: it's about a real story, but in Alabama, in the
Speaker 1: city where my mother is from, in Monroeville, Alabama. The
Speaker 1: Killermockenburg and other stories that have come out of that
Speaker 1: area just by itself is the home of white women
Speaker 1: doing false reporting, and they never wanted a felony assigned
Speaker 1: to those cases, but now that a black woman does
Speaker 1: it here, they want to change the laws. So I
Speaker 1: just think that means that we just have to be
Speaker 1: really careful, and we got away from the main reason
Speaker 1: why I brought up you know, Imiani, of course, is
Speaker 1: a really really sad ending to a story that we
Speaker 1: were hoping would just turn out to be different, turnout
Speaker 1: to just be, you know, a woman being found rather
Speaker 1: than a woman being found dead. But I think these
Speaker 1: stats are really important because people need to know, especially
Speaker 1: since you know, unfortunately or fortunately, Carli bought a lot
Speaker 1: of people's attention to missing black women. A lot of
Speaker 1: folks knew what was happening, But I don't know if
Speaker 1: people are aware of the statistics and so early earlier today,
Speaker 1: Anastasia on our team share these stats with me that
Speaker 1: black women and black girls make up eighteen percent of
Speaker 1: all missing persons cases, but yet we are only seven
Speaker 1: percent of the population. Five hundred and fifty six thousand
Speaker 1: people have been reported missing, and of that number, two
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy one thousand of them are women, and
Speaker 1: of that number, one hundred thousand are black women. So
Speaker 1: eighteen percent of the population of missing person cases in
Speaker 1: this country are black women and black girl but we're
Speaker 1: only seven percent of the population.
Speaker 3: Logic triple percentage of those who are being abducted and kidnapped.
Speaker 2: And just to put based on the percentage of ish,
Speaker 2: that's crazy.
Speaker 3: That means it's a problem, you know, and it sounds
Speaker 3: it sounds crazy because it sounds similar to you know,
Speaker 3: we talk about the population and prisms, and I think
Speaker 3: unfortunately in every major statistic that is terrible, we somehow
Speaker 3: are leading it and I don't and it's and it's
Speaker 3: not me, you know what I'm saying, it's not okay,
Speaker 3: And we got to figure.
Speaker 2: Out, you know, how do how do.
Speaker 3: We we rectify these situations? What is the plan? You know,
Speaker 3: That's what I I'm always solution based when I talk
Speaker 3: about the problem. I want to figure out, like, what
Speaker 3: is the plan? What can we do to try to
Speaker 3: bring some level of change to the situation.
Speaker 2: That's crazy? Just just imagine that just imagine.
Speaker 3: Or that that you're that in danger when you walk
Speaker 3: outside of not coming home.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well that's so true. That's so true, son. I'm
Speaker 1: just going to leave it at that, because we do
Speaker 1: need the solutions, and I think one of them is
Speaker 1: that we got to keep our eyes open and keep
Speaker 1: ourselves focused. You know, we need the buddy system at
Speaker 1: all times. Lady ladies, you know, can't be out here
Speaker 1: going out with people and slipping off with people and
Speaker 1: doing crazy things that you know, nobody knows you're doing.
Speaker 1: And it's just not that time because there's a lot happening.
Speaker 1: They snatching you off the streets. So you know, if
Speaker 1: you're getting in the car with some man and you
Speaker 1: know you don't really know or you know whatever, these
Speaker 1: things can happen. So you're right, the solutions matter. Let's
Speaker 1: talk about Jamie Fox and specifically Jennifer Aniston. I did
Speaker 1: a live on this and it has a lot, like
Speaker 1: one hundred and nine thousand views at this point, so
Speaker 1: people are really into it. I've been seeing a lot
Speaker 1: of shares and I've also been receiving a lot of
Speaker 1: d ms from people who are like wow, and I'm
Speaker 1: talking about white folks and by the way, I'm talking
Speaker 1: about white folks who are important people in society have
Speaker 1: been sending me messages saying, you know, I watched this,
Speaker 1: and you know what you said is so deep. And
Speaker 1: first of all, we already have said, which I'm sure
Speaker 1: you will reiterate that we know for sure based upon
Speaker 1: what Jamie Fox said, he is not talking about He
Speaker 1: was not talking about in his tweet or wherever he
Speaker 1: put his comment in his post. He was not talking
Speaker 1: about Jewish people. He wasn't talking about a people. He
Speaker 1: was talking about person a person, And you know he
Speaker 1: clarified that, which you know, I'm okay with. I don't
Speaker 1: you know, people are like, well, I hate that he apologized.
Speaker 1: You know, I've lived long enough and been through enough
Speaker 1: stuff to realize that people have various reasons for why
Speaker 1: they do things, and some people are just so good
Speaker 1: at heart that whenever they hear that's something they did
Speaker 1: or said impacted another person, they automatically are like, oh
Speaker 1: my god, I'm so sorry. You know, so I don't know.
Speaker 1: I haven't had obviously a conversation with the brother. But whatever,
Speaker 1: whether he apologized or not, it's neither he nor did
Speaker 1: the fact that if he apologized because he felt he
Speaker 1: had to, that's a different thing, and that's something else
Speaker 1: we could talk about. But you know, we don't know that.
Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna kind of let that go.
Speaker 3: I say all the time, each individual is an individual.
Speaker 3: If I say something and you interpret it as it
Speaker 3: was wrong, and I feel like, you know, based on
Speaker 3: a relationship or anything that me and you have, you know,
Speaker 3: I want to apologize for making you feel it even
Speaker 3: though it wasn't my intentions, and even though you.
Speaker 2: Might have misinterpreted.
Speaker 3: Some of us have that much selflessness and I don't,
Speaker 3: and I don't hold that against I don't.
Speaker 2: Think that makes you wrong or sort anything.
Speaker 3: If if I feel like I said something or you misinterpreting,
Speaker 3: I care enough and I want to apologize.
Speaker 2: I apologize.
Speaker 3: If I don't, I don't, And I'm a firm believer
Speaker 3: in that, you know, I think. I just think in
Speaker 3: this situation, right, it wasn't It wasn't Jamie's apology. It
Speaker 3: wasn't any for me. It was the interjection of Jennifer
Speaker 3: Anderson and utilizing her platform to label man right, a
Speaker 3: label man that she probably could have reached out to.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: She utilized that platform and her voice because of whatever
Speaker 3: pressure she got to to try to deflect whatever somebody
Speaker 3: made her feel on to somebody else. And that's just
Speaker 3: a level of weakness, right, It's a level of fear,
Speaker 3: a weakness that people impose on you. It's just like
Speaker 3: we both go to the store and you buy candy
Speaker 3: and I'm oh, this candy is good.
Speaker 2: Did somebody come to you like, yo, well you buying
Speaker 2: that candy? This and that?
Speaker 3: Oh well such and such told me to buy it.
Speaker 3: You know, he I don't support it. I didn't know
Speaker 3: all of that. Well, he probably didn't know it either, right,
Speaker 3: And because people don't want to deal with a level
Speaker 3: of backlash from something, the weak thing to do is
Speaker 3: try to deflect. And I think that's the more thing
Speaker 3: to me. People talking about Jamie Shitner, maybe he shouldn't
Speaker 3: have a problem, but maybe he wanted to because it
Speaker 3: wasn't that serious to him, like, oh shit, I didn't
Speaker 3: even think about that, And I'm not bad.
Speaker 2: It ain't about fear, It ain't about nothing.
Speaker 3: You know, a lot of times people want you to
Speaker 3: take on their own personal battles or battles if they
Speaker 3: feel that they're dealing with that that's not my battle.
Speaker 3: And I don't have to feel obligated to hold on
Speaker 3: to that bat. You know, and I might and I
Speaker 3: might feel like I wouldn't apologize, and it might be
Speaker 3: a lot, but that we can't hold Jamie to that
Speaker 3: because of his mind, he don't even see the big deal.
Speaker 3: He like, man, I was talking about fake friends, and
Speaker 3: if that, you know, if if people that I care for,
Speaker 3: people that I respect, pon me and say, hey, oh,
Speaker 3: it looked like you were saying that, I could say,
Speaker 3: what funk would it look like? And fuck you too?
Speaker 3: Or I could just say, you know what, that's my bad.
Speaker 3: I didn't even think of it that way. I didn't
Speaker 3: mean that to harm. You're not saying it's my bad
Speaker 3: because I did something wrong. It's my bad if it
Speaker 3: offended you, you know, And that and that, and people
Speaker 3: got to understand that there's things. They're nuances and conversations.
Speaker 3: A lot of times as black people us understanding these
Speaker 3: situations and a lot of times people knowing what this
Speaker 3: situation looks like and have dealt with similar situations. You know,
Speaker 3: it's you feel attacked, you deal with the trauma of it.
Speaker 3: But you know a lot of times it's not that
Speaker 3: it's not about trauma. It's about an individual holding himself
Speaker 3: respond for what he feels, you know, for what he feels.
Speaker 3: And that's why I was adamant when you know, with
Speaker 3: Kyrie's situation, Kyrie was understood his situation, knew what he
Speaker 3: was saying. He wasn't talking about nothing else. And because
Speaker 3: he decided on how he was willing to deal with
Speaker 3: I respected that as a man, just like I respected
Speaker 3: Jamies feeling.
Speaker 2: Like you want and that's what it is for me.
Speaker 3: I want black men and women to have autonomy over
Speaker 3: their thoughts, their feelings, their bodies, how they think, and
Speaker 3: what they think. And nobody should be able to make
Speaker 3: you think what they want you to think. You know,
Speaker 3: whether it's a white person or a black person, you know,
Speaker 3: we individuals. If I feel like, you know, I want
Speaker 3: to do this or I felt like this, and I
Speaker 3: know that where I come from is a place of
Speaker 3: you know, of joy and happiness and you trying to
Speaker 3: make something else, and I don't feel like I'm gonna
Speaker 3: allow you to label me that, and I'm gonna fight
Speaker 3: against that because that's a fight I'm willing to fight
Speaker 3: for it. Then I'm gonna stand with you. You know what
Speaker 3: I'm saying. If you feel that it was not that,
Speaker 3: then I'm gonna stand with you also, and maybe and
Speaker 3: if if the fight is deeper for me, then I'm
Speaker 3: gonna hold on to it. I'm gonna continue the conversation
Speaker 3: based on whatever the situation is. And that's what I think.
Speaker 3: That's what people gotta start doing. If the fighter, if
Speaker 3: the fight is deeper for you, then you take the
Speaker 3: conversation to the level you wanted to go. Don't don't
Speaker 3: think that everybody's gonna take that that same leap and
Speaker 3: that same thing and it doesn't make them less than
Speaker 3: or graded and it just makes them different.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, I mean I agree with everything you said.
Speaker 1: There's nothing for me to add. I will say that
Speaker 1: on the Jennifer Jennifer Anderson piece, I think what made
Speaker 1: me jump so quick, like my bones shifted around that
Speaker 1: I wanted to speak on it is because of what
Speaker 1: Lissa Milana. That's the same thing that she did to
Speaker 1: us at the Women's March. Hers was even worse. Well,
Speaker 1: I guess in a way it's the same because Jennifer
Speaker 1: Andison I just learned yesterday is not even Jewish, So
Speaker 1: she was literally inserting herself into a conversation and not
Speaker 1: even allowing the people who are actually from the community
Speaker 1: to lead the conversation. And she didn't use her ability
Speaker 1: and her proximity to Janie to have a conversation and
Speaker 1: try to bring people together. So, as far as I'm concerned,
Speaker 1: as you said, it's weak, it's ignorant, and to be clear,
Speaker 1: it's violent because whenever you even think about using certain terminology,
Speaker 1: whether it be anti black or anti Semitic or whatever,
Speaker 1: and you put it, attach it to someone's name, or
Speaker 1: put it in the atmosphere and attached to that person,
Speaker 1: there are consequences for that, And in this particular situation,
Speaker 1: being called anti semitic is very very very very life
Speaker 1: altering and dangerous for black people. So that is it's ignorant,
Speaker 1: it's weak, and on top of everything else, is violent.
Speaker 1: But Alyssa Milano, she did something very similar. Nobody invited
Speaker 1: Alyssa Milano to speak at the Women's March, And if
Speaker 1: somebody did invite her, I would, you know, want to
Speaker 1: see what was the official letter, because I don't think so,
Speaker 1: because I know the people who were responsible for inviting
Speaker 1: speakers who were authorized to invite speakers, so she was
Speaker 1: not invited to speak at all any period. And the
Speaker 1: next thing, you know, after all the allegations of us
Speaker 1: being anti Semitic and all of that, she came out
Speaker 1: talking about how she would not speak at the Women's
Speaker 1: March or speak at the march because she ftans against
Speaker 1: anti Semitism. Well, first of all, boo woo, you wasn't
Speaker 1: invite it, But even if you were, why would you
Speaker 1: not pick up the phone and call and have conversations
Speaker 1: before you run to the public to try to label us,
Speaker 1: Which created a situation that ultimately, if we pay, if
Speaker 1: we understand the history of what took place, even with
Speaker 1: all the charge of anti Semitism and everything we were
Speaker 1: going through, so many leaders within the Jewish community came
Speaker 1: together with us to say, we have a fundamental difference
Speaker 1: on this issue of whether or not we feel Tamika
Speaker 1: Mallori should denounce Minister Farakhan, or whether or not she
Speaker 1: should say these things or do these things. Of course,
Speaker 1: there was a fundamental difference of feelings, opinion or whatever
Speaker 1: in terms of people telling me what words I should
Speaker 1: use to describe leaders within my own community. Of course,
Speaker 1: there was just a lot of pushback on all kinds
Speaker 1: of things that came up in the context that whole
Speaker 1: situation that was beyond again the issue of anti semitism,
Speaker 1: but really turned into the relationship between white women and
Speaker 1: black women, and women of color and white women, and
Speaker 1: how dangerous that moment could be in terms of our future,
Speaker 1: and of course the dangers of feminism. I mean, it
Speaker 1: was just so many things that came up, but the
Speaker 1: leaders were together saying it was more important for us
Speaker 1: to find ways to unify and to move forward with
Speaker 1: our movement, and we continue to move forward, we continue
Speaker 1: to build. When Alyssa Milano made her statement, it changed
Speaker 1: the dynamics of the Women's March forever because it created
Speaker 1: it opened the door for a literal assault. It was
Speaker 1: her then the next thing, you know, Megan McCain. It
Speaker 1: was so many different and women and black women who
Speaker 1: were afraid, which we won't talk about who they are
Speaker 1: today because those relationships have been some of them have
Speaker 1: been mended. For Black women who were afraid, scared to death,
Speaker 1: shaking in their boots, ran, ran, and some of them
Speaker 1: were actually harmful. On top of it, some of them
Speaker 1: got together and started other groups of women to try
Speaker 1: to counter us, to find ways to catch our responsors
Speaker 1: that left the women's March, and it was after Alyssa
Speaker 1: Mulano decided to step in the chat to throw us
Speaker 1: under the bus, to disrespect us because she wasn't even invited.
Speaker 1: And so again what Jennifer Aniston did, there is an
Speaker 1: actual prototype. There's an actual like you could go look,
Speaker 1: there's a book on it. And the book is called
Speaker 1: white Women a perpetuate violence against women of color and
Speaker 1: black women, black men, and just other people all the time.
Speaker 1: And it is extremely dangerous and we have to call
Speaker 1: it out. And I know people don't like to hear it.
Speaker 1: Some people will say, oh, well, Tamika, you shouldn't. I
Speaker 1: don't care. It's just no, it's just it's just wrong.
Speaker 1: And like I said, we don't like that. We don't
Speaker 1: like that. So let's see what else are you going
Speaker 1: to talk about today?
Speaker 3: Very much triggering, you know, it triggers a lot of
Speaker 3: emotions based on personal experiences.
Speaker 2: So trust me, the flower in the wall.
Speaker 1: Gets all right, well, well, yeah, you were the Flower
Speaker 1: Women's March, you know all about it. And by the way,
Speaker 1: I think we should also say because you always have
Speaker 1: to give credit where credit is due. That there were
Speaker 1: some white women who ten toes down, hurting and all
Speaker 1: being you know, being ridiculed by their friends and family.
Speaker 1: They still stood strong and said we won't participate in
Speaker 1: this this moment and assaulting other you know, women and
Speaker 1: specifically women of color, because they understood that the history
Speaker 1: books were therefore record their names as being some of
Speaker 1: those who were harmful to other women that they claimed
Speaker 1: they were supposed the allies with. And when things get tough, tough,
Speaker 1: when situations, when the ground gets shaky, folks start running
Speaker 1: and it's just pretty dangerous. I guess you could probably
Speaker 1: talk about this next thing in terms of today waking
Speaker 1: up being a proud black woman, black man. So not
Speaker 1: necessarily because there was violence, but because there was unity
Speaker 1: among the people in Montgomery, Alabama.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, man.
Speaker 3: So by now I'm sure the world has seen, you know,
Speaker 3: this video that's going viral of a black security guard
Speaker 3: getting into not really altercation, who actually was jumped by
Speaker 3: some white men for allegedly there was he was working
Speaker 3: at the dock and there was a boat docked that
Speaker 3: I guess was on by these white people, and there
Speaker 3: was another boat trying to come in, and the security
Speaker 3: guard looked or from the information that I was given,
Speaker 3: was told, was telling the.
Speaker 2: White people that they needed to move their vote so
Speaker 2: that this other boat could come in, you know.
Speaker 3: And then there was a back and forth conversation between
Speaker 3: one man, one identified white man, and a security guard,
Speaker 3: you know, and it seemed like the conversations were getting
Speaker 3: little heated, but there was no punches, there was no
Speaker 3: physical and then out of nowhere, one junk white man
Speaker 3: comes and a tax them. And as he's fending off
Speaker 3: this man, then two and three more come and they're
Speaker 3: punching them, they're kicking them. And at that point you
Speaker 3: see one black guy come from upstairs on the dock.
Speaker 3: He runs down. He gets in the middle of trying
Speaker 3: to break it up, so they's trying to hit on him.
Speaker 3: He's making that up. Then you see a young boy
Speaker 3: who they call an aquaman. He swims across, you know,
Speaker 3: the ocean. I don't know where he came from. I
Speaker 3: think they say he was on the boat that was
Speaker 3: actually trying to dock as.
Speaker 2: He swam in. He was part of a crew and
Speaker 2: he swam in and you.
Speaker 3: Know, first he was trying to separate and you know,
Speaker 3: just trying to rectify the situation.
Speaker 2: And then he saw again physical, you know, and and
Speaker 2: then he got involved.
Speaker 3: And then these three other guys came from nowhere and
Speaker 3: you know, the day I called him about business, that's
Speaker 3: they they they about business.
Speaker 2: Crew.
Speaker 3: I seen these three guys walk up and they looked
Speaker 3: like they had seen what happened. They came with their
Speaker 3: shirts off, and they proceeded to match the same energy
Speaker 3: of the white man that was jumping the black man,
Speaker 3: you know, and that that energy became contagious. That's when
Speaker 3: the young the young boy got involved. And then it
Speaker 3: became all out, we ain't gonna We're not gonna be oppressed,
Speaker 3: and you know, and it was a unified moment.
Speaker 2: And like like Tamika said.
Speaker 3: Man, I'm not celebrating the violence, because that's not something
Speaker 3: that I advocate.
Speaker 2: I don't I'm not sitting here advocating for violence at
Speaker 2: any level.
Speaker 3: But the unific the unity that was displayed in that
Speaker 3: it just showed that I was my brother's keeper.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: It reminded me of me and my brothers and my
Speaker 3: nephews and you know, my son. Like it reminded me
Speaker 3: of how we were taught to react and how we
Speaker 3: were taught to protect one another at all courts, and
Speaker 3: that's what they did.
Speaker 2: And you know, and they they and they proceeded to
Speaker 2: whip some ass as we call.
Speaker 3: It, you know, and they proceeded to to show that,
Speaker 3: you know, karma shows up fast. Sometimes it comes so fast,
Speaker 3: you know. And as I watched it, it made me
Speaker 3: tear up a little bit because it's so many it's
Speaker 3: so many videos viral. It's so many times I watch
Speaker 3: situations where I watch black men getting jumped, black women
Speaker 3: being bead I've seen Shakisha Clemens getting through them. I've
Speaker 3: watched where we've sat around and watched. You know, there's
Speaker 3: no there's no.
Speaker 2: Mystery and I've always stated it all the time.
Speaker 3: There's no mystery that I'm I'm an advocate to protect
Speaker 3: each other.
Speaker 2: That we should not be just sitting there just recording,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 3: And even in this situation, even the people that was recorded,
Speaker 3: even though they weren't able, but you can hear this
Speaker 3: to day, she was cheering it on, like go protect them,
Speaker 3: fight back, do that that's right, brother, get get involved,
Speaker 3: like you can. You can see that they were on
Speaker 3: the same page and I think, you know, as people
Speaker 3: saw that video, you know, it's hundreds of videos that's
Speaker 3: going viral.
Speaker 2: You know, you got Ricky Smiley.
Speaker 3: You got applies, you got dm you got so many
Speaker 3: different people who now like people.
Speaker 2: Talking about it, and.
Speaker 3: The main theme is that it was unified, that we
Speaker 3: showed that we were together. You know, we weren't. We
Speaker 3: weren't in port. We weren't the cause of any violence.
Speaker 3: We didn't we initiate violence, but we protected each other.
Speaker 3: You know, we weren't gonna be oppressed. We weren't victims.
Speaker 3: It's the gloss of what we actually can be and
Speaker 3: what we actually should be, you know, as as just
Speaker 3: a community, you know, as a people, you know, And
Speaker 3: so to me, it was probably one of the proudest moment,
Speaker 3: people saying August six is not January sixth, you know,
Speaker 3: it's it's two completely different days. It shows two different
Speaker 3: sides of a coin, and August six should be a
Speaker 3: national holiday.
Speaker 2: Man, they could, they said it should be. Do we
Speaker 2: call the fuck.
Speaker 3: Around and find out that, you know, and I think
Speaker 3: what we can learn from that is what we look
Speaker 3: like unified. It's crazy because something prompter on my my
Speaker 3: timeline and They had a lion getting chased by a
Speaker 3: bunch of hyaenas and was fighting off the hyaenas, about
Speaker 3: ten hyenas on him.
Speaker 2: He was fighting at and then next thing.
Speaker 3: You know, five lions came out of nowhere and they
Speaker 3: started ten hyaenas apart and hyenas is running. And it
Speaker 3: reminded me of that, and it's like, it's unification. Even
Speaker 3: animals understand that they protect each other. Even animals they
Speaker 3: move in pact, they identify, well, this is that we're
Speaker 3: brothers and we're sisters.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 3: And I think Black people have to get to get
Speaker 3: back to that animal instinct, you know, not not in
Speaker 3: the violence sense, but just in the sense of understanding,
Speaker 3: I want to protect my brother. This is my brother
Speaker 3: identifying and looking at saying that's my brother, and I
Speaker 3: don't want I'm not gonna allow harm to come to him.
Speaker 3: I want what's best for him, you know. And when
Speaker 3: we started really moving like that, when we start making
Speaker 3: that a conscious effort, we saw being so intentional about that,
Speaker 3: you know, we're gonna see a lot of different results.
Speaker 3: You're gonna see different cultures and different ethnicities. You know,
Speaker 3: who I see is unified all the time start treating
Speaker 3: us different, because they'll realize that we're coming into our
Speaker 3: innate power, you know, the born the born energy that
Speaker 3: we have that we.
Speaker 2: Just haven't tapped into in so long. You know, it's
Speaker 2: it's it's for me.
Speaker 3: People always talking about slavery, and I think slavery was
Speaker 3: a time, you know, before it was after that time
Speaker 3: that we were we were one culture in one nation.
Speaker 3: But it was also a time that we understood that
Speaker 3: we needed each other. You know, we looked and said
Speaker 3: to ourselves and they knew that, and that's why they
Speaker 3: attempted to divide us. And they and they did a
Speaker 3: pretty damn good job of separating us and and and
Speaker 3: pitting us against each other.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 3: So I'm hoping that you know, August sixth is not
Speaker 3: just a moment, it's a movement, yes, and we take
Speaker 3: and build on it.
Speaker 1: Well, I you said a whole lot of things, that's true,
Speaker 1: And I think my thought of the day today surrounds
Speaker 1: the what's the next steps? Right, folks knowah should be
Speaker 1: able to understand very clearly what happened. That this was
Speaker 1: a response. And you know, if it was just one
Speaker 1: man fighting one man, it would have been cool, but
Speaker 1: that man was in danger because there were multiple white people.
Speaker 1: They were surrounding him. They started hitting him. And I
Speaker 1: believe that we should definitely do what happened in that video,
Speaker 1: which is to always step up stand in one man.
Speaker 1: When he first came, he just was trying to stop
Speaker 1: it and they were stopping him. And to be clear,
Speaker 1: women also got involved with the fight. And I want
Speaker 1: to just make sure we mentioned that black women whip
Speaker 1: some ass out there too, because it was necessary. But
Speaker 1: what's the next steps from my thought of the day,
Speaker 1: is that Number one, if you're in the Selma, Alabama area,
Speaker 1: Vassa's Mini Marked is the store that is owned by
Speaker 1: the individual who started this fight. So Selma, Alabama residents,
Speaker 1: people go to Selma every single year for the jubilee
Speaker 1: and to be a part of the recommitment to our
Speaker 1: movement that started in the sixties with doctor King and
Speaker 1: Congressman John Lewis and others. And so while you're in Selma,
Speaker 1: if you're there for any reason, if you just want
Speaker 1: to go and visit the excuse me, the Edmund Pettis Bridge,
Speaker 1: make sure that you do not support Vassar's Mini Mark. Also,
Speaker 1: I'm sure knowing the revolutionaries that are in the Alabama
Speaker 1: area and the Selma area, they are going to make
Speaker 1: sure that that store understands the ramifications of its owner
Speaker 1: being involved in this type of assault. Actually have been
Speaker 1: watching a thread online. Not sure if it's real or not,
Speaker 1: but it looks like the person who runs the store
Speaker 1: and runs their social media it's still popping major shit
Speaker 1: online that they don't need our support, that they appreciate,
Speaker 1: they want superior white dollars, and so black people know
Speaker 1: what to do when we pull ours. There's no way
Speaker 1: you can't survive because we spend way too much money
Speaker 1: in the economy. But Isaac Hayes the Third wrote something
Speaker 1: on Instagram today the thought was so real where he
Speaker 1: said that you know, they're gonna they're going to get
Speaker 1: their lick back, and their lick back is gonna come
Speaker 1: from their votes. So they're ready. What they know. First
Speaker 1: of all, Trump was in Alabama. He did a rally,
Speaker 1: and this whole situation happened after the rally, and so
Speaker 1: there's reason to believe there's cause to believe that they
Speaker 1: felt emboldened just because of the you know, the the
Speaker 1: the the energy and the climate of what has happened
Speaker 1: and politically around this nation. And so with that being said,
Speaker 1: we now have to make sure we match that energy.
Speaker 1: And I saw people in the comments like, oh, here
Speaker 1: we go capping for the Democrats. It's not about capping
Speaker 1: for the Democrats or capping for anybody. It's about the
Speaker 1: fact that these people the way that they're going to
Speaker 1: respond to what has happened and to what happened out
Speaker 1: there and all of our you know, there's jokes, there's this,
Speaker 1: there's that, and all of that. We got all of
Speaker 1: this big talk and we should have it. But what
Speaker 1: they're gonna do is buckle down and say they're gonna
Speaker 1: make sure that Alabama organizes behind the individual who supports
Speaker 1: them running up and punching the black man in the
Speaker 1: face on the dock and anywhere else the supports the
Speaker 1: January sixth behavior of trying to take over the capital
Speaker 1: of you know, of all that they do and all
Speaker 1: the the the violence that they in site on a
Speaker 1: regular basis, and that they are candidates, not one, but
Speaker 1: many of them that they all stand behind, whether it
Speaker 1: be Ron DeSantis, whether it's all of them, even Mike
Speaker 1: Penance is out here talking all of this. Oh you know,
Speaker 1: trank put me in a bad situation. Bro, you was
Speaker 1: with it until you wasn't, so stop. Okay. So anyway,
Speaker 1: that's that on that make sure that you are politically
Speaker 1: engaged so that your punch also becomes punching at the
Speaker 1: polls to ensure that we double down on how we
Speaker 1: would not be disrespected and we will not be oppressed.
Speaker 1: So that's my thought of the day.
Speaker 3: That's very good thought of the day. Man, use your
Speaker 3: you know, use your vote. I don't give for who
Speaker 3: you vote for. Vote for somebody like. Stop sitting around
Speaker 3: here talking about our Democrat. Man. Find you somebody you like?
Speaker 3: I call what kind of credit is man? Find you
Speaker 3: somebody you like. That's talking muscle shit that you want
Speaker 3: to talk about. Find you a candidate that you invest in, right,
Speaker 3: that you that you you grow from the seed and.
Speaker 2: Do something else.
Speaker 3: But just don't sit around here and complain. It tied
Speaker 3: to y'all complaining. Get get active, like the like the
Speaker 3: crew they calling him the crew. The boy jumped out
Speaker 3: that boy who whipped ass. I'm talking about whipping ass
Speaker 3: man and taking names. That's that's that's the season. When
Speaker 3: I'm in whipped ass, take name, season.
Speaker 2: I here.
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna start nothing with nobody, but I ain't
Speaker 3: gonna let nobody do nothing to me and mine. I
Speaker 3: need the world to understand that, yes, I am definitely
Speaker 3: I tell people I'm anti violent. I'm not now violent
Speaker 3: because na, this means none. I'm against violence. But the
Speaker 3: minute that you think you're gonna pose your will upon me,
Speaker 3: you're gonna realize that you are dealing with a warrior
Speaker 3: with the warrior spirits, and the ancestor is gonna the
Speaker 3: ancestors is gonna properly show you who the fuck I am.
Speaker 3: You understand what I'm saying, And that's what happened that night, man,
Speaker 3: And and that's that's that's my.
Speaker 2: I don't get it.
Speaker 3: I don't get why we don't always move like that.
Speaker 2: That's what I don't get.
Speaker 3: I don't get why we don't always realize that we
Speaker 3: are wanting were unified.
Speaker 2: I don't get that.
Speaker 3: I don't get how we don't look at shit like
Speaker 3: that throughout history, you know, and seeing like people like
Speaker 3: I used to watch movies in certain movies and be like,
Speaker 3: damn inspired me seeing what our people went to say, Yo,
Speaker 3: this is this is who we are we great.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't get anybody that don't see ship like that
Speaker 3: and say, look today, I'm a lover for my people.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna give my people more grace, you know, a
Speaker 3: little more grace than I gave me A say, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna go to the store. It might be a little jannkie,
Speaker 3: but I'm I'm a helper. I'm gonna say, yeah, won't
Speaker 3: y'all fix this up a little bit. I'm gonna buy
Speaker 3: some ship from here, but won't you get a little
Speaker 3: better customer service? I'm gonna uplift my people. I'm not
Speaker 3: gonna say we got it fucked up and leave them alone,
Speaker 3: especially if I know the tools that could fix whatever's wrong.
Speaker 2: Right, So that's what I want I want us to do.
Speaker 3: I want us to be more intentional about fixing the
Speaker 3: ship that we know is wrong with our own people,
Speaker 3: instead of going outside and bigging up and supporting and
Speaker 3: making them billionaires and trillion as fuck. All right, you
Speaker 3: don't got you don't got all the pieces here, you
Speaker 3: don't got it all right, but you got the idea.
Speaker 3: Let me take this, you know, take this information I got. Well,
Speaker 3: take this critique that I have. You know, let's let's
Speaker 3: be intentional, Like I don't mind. I like I've been supporting.
Speaker 3: Shout out to my voice Sia Man Saya got some
Speaker 3: of the most comfortable shoes. I got my shoes that
Speaker 3: I wear that Tamika hates. They my traveling shoes. But
Speaker 3: I also got some new color ones that they so

Speaker 3: designs its own ship, probably got his own family and
Speaker 3: everything in the way.
Speaker 2: Else I seen his father there.
Speaker 3: Like, it's about us being intentional about owning our own
Speaker 3: ship and producing our own ship.
Speaker 2: And supporting our own So that's what I want to do.
Speaker 2: I want.
Speaker 3: I want to I want to see the positivity in
Speaker 3: black people and try to figure out, even the ship
Speaker 3: that I see is negative, how do we help them
Speaker 3: change that?
Speaker 2: How do we come from a place.
Speaker 3: Of love to where we we're helping our people grow, right,
Speaker 3: not just criticizing tean of down and say you ain't
Speaker 3: got shipped and you ain't this and that. Why are
Speaker 3: we not trying to help them become bigger than they
Speaker 3: are or better than they are? That's what I want
