26
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: while I was there, and you know, in Brooklyn, well

27
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 1: in New York, they've been doing drinks to go. So

28
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 1: I had this little wine drink and I think I

29
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 1: haven't been drinking that much. So I had one of

00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 1: those yeah out and about all right, Well, um, shout

00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: out to Revolt. Yesterday I was on Revolt. They were

32
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 1: talking about let me get the correct beyond black and blue.

33
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: So they were talking to me in another lady, I

34
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: can't remember her name, and they were just talking about

35
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: the police and what we feel a police should be doing.

36
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: And they were just asking my opinion what my dad said.

37
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: Of course, my dad is a retired police officer, and I,

38
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,359
Speaker 1: you know, we were just going through you know, how

39
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: I was raised as a son of a cop, and

40
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: what my dad said about police. And I've set it

41
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 1: up here a million times. You know, my dad number

42
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: one thing is the police and not your friends. Uh,

43
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: you don't say anything, keep your mouth shut. Uh you know, Um,

44
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: you can always call a lawyer. You can always call

45
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 1: your your you know, your your parents, but you never

46
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,920
Speaker 1: say anything. You know, don't try to weazle your way

47
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 1: out of a situation. Just shut the f up, as

48
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: my dad would always say. And the second thing my

49
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 1: dad always says, you gotta make it home. I always

50
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: talk about, you know, I used to be uh you know,

51
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: when I used to give I get I used to

52
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 1: get pulled over a lot. And one time when I

53
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 1: got pulled over, my dad was on a speaker phone

54
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:51,679
Speaker 1: and I was being an ass to the cop because

55
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: the cop was being an ass to me. I could

56
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: just hear my dad yelling streaming, just give them your

57
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,839
Speaker 1: license and registration. Just give them your license to FF

58
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: and registration. So when the cop left, my dad was like, look,

59
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if he's right or wrong. Yes, he's

60
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 1: absolutely wrong, but at the end of the day, I

61
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 1: need you to come home. I need you to make

62
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 1: it home. You can't beat him in the street. You can,

63
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: we can beat him when you get home, but you

64
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: can't beat him in the street. And that just stuck

65
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: with me, and I tell that to my kids. I mean,

66
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: it's you know, it's not right. But at the end

67
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: of the day. I want my kids to make it home,

68
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: you know. So, I mean I've talked about that last

69
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: I will vote. Yeah, that's great advice. The only sad

70
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: part is we've seen people be polite to police and

71
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: comply with police and still getting killed or getting beat

72
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: up or brutalize. So I mean, it's like, you damned

73
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: if you do your damned if I don't think that

74
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: the community, I don't think the community relationship, the black

75
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: community relationship will never be a solid relationship with the

76
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: police until there is an overwhelming amount of people from

77
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: our community that are police officers. I actually think that

78
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: should be one of the community policing incentives, Like they

79
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: should have financial incentive for people who grew up in

80
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: a certain neighborhood who decided to go into law enforcement

81
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: and come back and police said neighborhood, yeah, and they

82
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: should have a financial incentive to do that. Absolutely also spoke,

83
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: you know, growing up in Queens, I was like, you know,

84
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 1: it was more community. I remember there was a kid

85
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 1: on our block and I talked about this, you know,

86
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: he had down syndrome when we called him the E

87
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 1: kid because all he said was and I remember there

88
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 1: was an incident one time with the police, and my

89
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 1: dad was there and the police came and if my

90
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: dad wasn't there, I don't know what would happened to

91
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 1: that kid because he was had down syndrome. He was aggressive,

92
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: but my dad knew him. So when the cops came out,

93
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 1: Dad I was like, no, I got this, I got this.

94
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 1: I got this. And my dad was able to call

95
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 1: his mom and call his pop and de escalate the

96
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: situation because he knew the community, he knew the kid,

97
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But if it would have

98
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 1: been anybody else, they wouldn't have known it. They wouldn't

99
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: have known what was going on. If he would attacked,

100
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: it might have shot him. So, like you said, yeah,

101
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: we absolutely positively need more of that in the community.

102
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: And you know, my dad is a Queen's Head. He's

103
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: from originally from Brooklyn, but when we moved to Queens

104
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 1: that's his block. He's not going away. He knows everybody

105
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: on the block. He knows the kids on the block,

106
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 1: he knows the elderly people on the block. It's it's that,

107
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,719
Speaker 1: it's what he does. You know, homeboy who's a copy

108
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 1: asked me yesterday, he said, how long do I think

109
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: cops should be in training And I said, it depends.

110
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: I said, you know, if if, if it depends on

111
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: the play community they're policing. If they're training a community

112
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: that they're not from, they don't have no you know,

113
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 1: experience with the training should be longer. If they're going

114
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 1: to be policing in the community that they know, the

115
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: training should be shorter. That's right. That's just my personal opinion.

116
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 1: And you feel and you feel a little different when

117
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: your family's in that community, like like like, is my

118
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: dad gonna do something foul in the community when I'm

119
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 1: running around playing as a kid. No, he's he protects

120
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 1: that community. He knows his kids and kids kids friends.

121
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 1: So we talked about that last That will revolve very

122

00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 1: women who she's an author and she's an activist and

129
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 1: she is also one of the women who was featured

130
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: on On the Record, that is the documentary about Russell

131
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 1: Simmons with the women who are accusing him of rape

132
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: and sexual assault. And she's one of the women that's

133
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:23,479
Speaker 1: featured on there, and she's told her story before the documentary,

134
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: and she's told her story and books that she's authored,

135
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: but not said his name until a couple of years ago.

136
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 1: She has said who the person is, and so we'll

137
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: get into what made her come forward, what made her

138
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 1: say the person who assaulted her is Russell Simmons and

139
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 1: say his name, and also why she participated in this documentary,

140
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: what has been the response since then, and why women's

141
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: voices need to be heard and led. All Right, So

142
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,320

Speaker 1: radical and dangerous efforts to defend, dismantle, and dissolve our

156
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: police departments, especially now when we've achieved the lowest recorded

157
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 1: crime rates in recent history. Without police, there is chaos.

158
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: Without law, there is anarchy, and without safety, there is catastrophe.

159
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 1: Americans believe we must support the brave men and women

160
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: in blue who police are streets and keep us safe.

161
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: Americans also believe we must improve accountability, increase transparency, and

162
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 1: invest more resources and police training, recruiting, and community engagement,

163
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: dismantling the police, though the funding is not dismantling. Nobody said,

164
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: we don't want any police. We just want the police

165
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 1: to be held accountable when they commit violence against us

166
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: and kill us. And yes, they don't need them big

167
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: ass budgets. Take some of that money and put it

168
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 1: into the community, nobody said, But some people aren't. Some

169
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: people are saying to dismantled police department. Some people are

170
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: calling for I mean, so we can't say no one

171
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: saying that, Yeah, but that's not what the funding means. Though,

172
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 1: like he keeps trying to twist the words defunding the police,

173
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: that's not what defunding the police means. For some people,

174
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 1: they that is what it means. I think it's just

175
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: you do have to be clear because defund does mean

176
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,839
Speaker 1: to take away the funds. And some people they look

177
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: at anybody, Okay. So another thing that he discussed was

178
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 1: he said that it's only a small percentage, a bad

179
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: huss and he talks about why is he signing this

180
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 1: executive order because at no point did he address race

181
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 1: racism as the issue. But here's what he said. Reducing

182
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: crime and raising standards are not opposite goals. That is

183
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: white Today, I'm signing an executive order encouraging police department

184
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: stationwide to adopt the highest professional standards to serve their communities.

185
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:21,199
Speaker 1: These standards will be as high and as strong as

186
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 1: there is on earth. All Right. The executive void is

187
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:29,559
Speaker 1: really nothing to get excited about, I mean, because it's

188
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 1: just suggestions. Like I do like some of the things

189
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 1: that are in there, like supporting the registry of bad

190
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 1: cops and correspondents in mental health case cases. But it's

191
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:44,959
Speaker 1: not a bill, it's just suggestions, suggestions. Okay. Now, you

192
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 1: also met with the families. He also met with the

193
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 1: families of him at Arebury, both m John Antoine Rose,

194
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 1: Jamal Robeson, at Tatiana Jefferson, Michael Dean, Darius Tarver, Cameron Lamb,

195
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 1: and Everett Palmer. And according to one person who attended,

196
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: they said it was very power full. It took place

197
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,079
Speaker 1: for an hour before he signed the executive order, and

198
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 1: there were a lot of tears in the room. So

199
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, by the way, before we move on from

200
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: Front page News, she tweeted out, Chump's policing Executive Order

201
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 1: is meaningless since to day one, he's used a racially

202
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,079
Speaker 1: charged rhetoric, all while rolling back efforts to root out

203
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 1: racism and policing and virtually abandoning police misconduct investigations. We

204
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 1: need real reforms past the Justice and Policing Act. Now,

205
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 1: she's right, because it's not a bill. It's not a bill.

206
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: You put it in the bill, make the goop passage

207
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: sign it. Then you got something but those are the

208
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,199
Speaker 1: executive orders, just suggestions. That's just a whole bunch of

209
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: pomping circumstance, that's all. He probably just wanted the families

210
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: in the White House to be able to get a

211
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 1: picture with him. To be honest, to me, it looked

212
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 1: like he's he cares and he's doing something. Selection season, baby,

213

Speaker 1: a lot of dreams being sold. Yeah, cars llesman everywhere

00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,840

00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: the side of the highway. It does feel sad and lonely.

239
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: It does. A couple of weeks ago, I was on

240
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: the side of road called the Total Up. Come get me.

241
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 1: Thanks for calling broth. Hello, who's this Tan from the Bronx? Hey,

242
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: le Shan, get it off your chests. Well, I want

243
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: to know why is it that these cops have to

244
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 1: do all these professions that they say they have to do,

245
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: but yet they requires to have limited education in order

246
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: to perform it. Hair dresses have to go to school

247
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: longer to get trained before cops and cops are able

248
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 1: to take people live why is that how long police academy?

249
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 1: The police have to go to academy. They have to

250
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 1: go to academy. I know that the doctor has to

251
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:46,839
Speaker 1: go to school for seven years to save a life.

252
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 1: For yet a cops have to go to the academy

253
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: and they get to kill people. That's okay. How long

254
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 1: is academy I don't even know. But yet they have

255
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 1: to before they have to be social workers. It's psychia,

256
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 1: tricks and all these other professions that yet they don't

257
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: have the education. That's not okay. Get one of sixty

258
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 1: credits because they only required to have sixty credits to

259
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 1: be a police officer. Yeah, yeah, I was reading something.

260
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,560
Speaker 1: I thought it was this a high school diploma. I

261
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: was reading something um yesterday and just said, like, it's

262
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: three years of training in Norway to be a police officer.

263
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 1: Three year three year degree is required to become a

264
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 1: police officer in Finland, two years of training to become

265
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: a police officer in Germany. But in the America you

266
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: just need a high school diploma in twenty one weeks

267
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: of training one twenty four weeks of training. It's still

268
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 1: a high school diploma. Because I know at one time

269
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: I thought they moved it up. You need a certain

270
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: amount of college credits. I'm not sure them. Don't quote me.

271
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 1: I just looked at up. It says high school diploma

272
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 1: is often the minimum form of education required an associates

273
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 1: bachelor's a graduate degree. It's rarely mandatory. M d all right,

274
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. If

275
00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 1: you need to vent, hit us up now. Now we

276
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: got rooms on the way. Ye yes we do. And

277
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: we'll be talking about Matt Barnes what he has to

278
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: say about Kyrie Irving sitting out the NBA season. All Right,

279
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 1: we'll get into that next keeping lock this to Breakfast Club.

280
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 1: Good morning the Breakfast Club. This is the Rumor Report

281
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: with Angela Yeast. So, as you know, Kyrie Irving is

282
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 1: calling for NBA players to reconsider resuming the season so

283
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 1: that players can focus on fighting oppression and so that

284
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 1: we don't lose focus. And a lot of people have

285
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 1: been critical of that. One person who is critical is

286
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 1: Matt Barnes. Now, he was on his podcast that he

287
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: does with Stephen Jackson, and here's what he had to say,

288
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: Kyrie needs to quit, boy, because what I heard was

289
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 1: Kyrie wanted to go to Orlando to support his team.

290
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: They didn't let him, so then he flipped the script, talking,

291
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give up everything. Bro. You can give up

292
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 1: everything to go do the Mier morning if you really

293
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 1: want to. But at the same time, sitting out without

294
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: a cause or purpose defeats the purpose, and then it

295
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 1: also divides us. I respect people don't want to play

296
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: because if it's COVID and you're putting your family a risk,

297
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 1: I get that. But if it's for the movement of

298
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 1: the country right now, we have to take charge of it. Yeah,

299
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I tend to agree with Matt Bonds, like

300
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 1: nobody can make me understand why some NBA players think

301
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: playing would be a distraction from the protest. Like athlete

302
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 1: activism has always been a thing. The demonstrations and things

303
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 1: you can do before a game, the comments you can

304
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 1: make after a game will only highlight what's going on

305
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 1: in the streets. And if you're not absolutely playing, If

306
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: you are not playing, are you about to dedicate your

307
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: life the full time activism If that's the case, cool,

308
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 1: If not, I don't get it. And the reference that

309
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 1: he had to Maya Moore. Maya Moore is a w

310
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: NBA star who sat out consecutive seasons to work directly

311
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 1: on criminal justice before, and we had talked about that previously.

312
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 1: She announced that she was missing a second straight season

313
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: and the Olympics before they were postponed. It's because she

314
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: was helping her family friend overturn a fifty year prison sentence.

315
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: So she show she dedicated her life, correct, she was

316
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 1: on the front Yeah. So so if you dedicate in

317
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: your life the full time activism, if you're not playing

318
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 1: because you want to be out there on the front lines,

319
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 1: I get it. If not, I don't get it. All right.

320
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 1: Stacy Dash has officially filed for divorce from her fourth husband,

321
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Marty. So they were married for two years, almost

322
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 1: two years, and she posted the announcement previously. She said,

323
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: my husband and I have made the hard decision of

324
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: ending our marriage. After much prayer, I feel this is

325
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: the right path for both of us. I wish him

326
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: nothing but the best. And you know, she was arrested

327
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 1: on domestic battery charges, y'all remember when that happened, But

328
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: she declared after the state attorney did not press charges

329
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: against her. So I wonder, what's the longest um, what's

330
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: the longest lease she's had on a husband two year

331
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 1: at least this one, Oh boy, that was the two year.

332
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: Last husband was the two year least. I wonder, what's

333
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 1: the longest lease she's ever had on a sheet? Miles?

334
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: With that? How many miles did she get it per year?

335
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. I wonder when when did she

336
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: realize it's time to turn it in and get into one? Right? Well,

337
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 1: that one's about to be over, fourth one, all right?

338
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 1: And Jacole, you know what, I woke up this morning

339
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 1: and I saw Jay Cole and Kendrick were trending. I

340
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 1: don't understand why. Still, I was trying to figure it out.

341
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 1: I mean, j Cole, I know, he put out a

342
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 1: new song and we're gonna play that actually, yes, Snow

343
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 1: on the Bluff, and that's his first song of twenty twenty,

344
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,399
Speaker 1: so you know, he's discussing everything that's been happening. It's

345
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 1: interesting because I just interviewed Neo for Lift Service. That

346
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 1: episode just came out yesterday, and he was saying, one

347
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 1: artist who he really wants to work with right now

348
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: is Jay Coole, especially to do a song about everything

349
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: that's happening right now. And Black Lives Matter, and Jay

350
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 1: Coole just did that himself with Snow on the Bluff,

351
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 1: so I think we should play that. And still, yeah,

352
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 1: we don't appreciate Snow on the Bluff like we should

353
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:48,679
Speaker 1: not the actual movie, classic phenomenal film. Man, we do

354
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 1: not appreciate that movie like we should. I'm gonna be

355
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,639
Speaker 1: honest now, I like that. I love Snow on the Bluff.

356
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: Everybody should go watch Now on the Bluff at least

357
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 1: once in your life. It's kind of like the Hood

358
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 1: Blair Witch Project. Remember how he didn't ripped. Well, I

359
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,119
Speaker 1: didn't know if the Blair Which project was real at

360
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 1: first because I saw a documentary about it before it aired.

361
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 1: So I was like, wow, somebody actually was walking around

362
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 1: with his camera and captured this footage. I thought that

363
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 1: about Snow on the Bluff as well. Well. Shout out

364
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: to Curtis Snow from Snow and the Bluff. That's right,

365
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,439
Speaker 1: classic film, you got, Curtis. All right, Well, I'm angela Ye,

366
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 1: and that's your realm. More important, let's get into Jacole's

367
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: new song, Snow on the Bluff Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy,

368
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 1: angela Ye, Charlomagne, the guy we are to breakfast club.

369
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:39,120
Speaker 1: Let's get in some front page news where we're starting. You, Well,

370
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: let's start which Donald Trump's police perform executive order. What

371
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:46,120
Speaker 1: is in it? A new database for police misconduct? He said,

372
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: They will establish a new national database of police officers

373
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: with the history of using excessive force, mental health corresponders.

374
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: They are directing the Secretary of Health and Human Services

375
00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,400
Speaker 1: to encourage police departments to embed mental health professionals as

376
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,640
Speaker 1: corresponders on calls related to mental health, homelessness, and addiction,

377
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 1: and also directing to help police department find funds to

378
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 1: hire this personnel. And banning chokeholds, but technically not really

379
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,439
Speaker 1: so what they said under this executive order is that

380
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,399
Speaker 1: chokeholds will be banned except when an officer's life is

381
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,439
Speaker 1: at risk, and the only police departments that choose to

382
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,880
Speaker 1: get certified would have to comply with that standard. Yeah,

383
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,479
Speaker 1: because I saw people saying that there is no banning

384
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: chokeholds initiative in his executive order. Actually saw Maya Harris

385
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: tweeted that out. But I mean, the executive arder is

386
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 1: really nothing to get excited about. It's just suggestions, you know.

387
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,360
Speaker 1: I do like some of those things that are in there,

388
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 1: you know, supporting the registry of bad cops. Definitely to

389
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 1: respond is in mental health cases. But it's not a bill.

390
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,399
Speaker 1: If you put it in a bill, make the goop passing,

391
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 1: and then sign it, then we'll have something to talk about.

392
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 1: That executive order that is nothing but symbolism. A trust

393
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 1: police officers. If you don't know their record, if you

394
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 1: don't know that their past, if you don't know if

395
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 1: they had previous report, it's like that has to be

396
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: public knowledge. I mean, if they pull me over, they

397
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 1: know my past, they know my history. We should know

398
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 1: everybody's history, honestly. Yeah, And you can't say that you're

399
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 1: banning choke holds unless you know officer's life. Then you're

400
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: not really banning choke holds. Correct, it's not really banned.

401
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: All right. Now, let's discuss Ray Shard Brooks. He was

402
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 1: killed by an Atlanta police officer outside the Wendy's restaurant

403
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 1: after failing a sobriety test. Then he fought with two

404
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,119
Speaker 1: officers and took a taser from one and ran away. Well,

405
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 1: now they are saying, according to the police union president,

406
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:34,400
Speaker 1: that shooting was justified under Georgia law. So they said

407
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: the taser is not a deadly weapon when used by

408
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 1: a trained individual because a trained individual knows where to

409
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 1: aim it, but an untrained individual does not, and then

410
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 1: it becomes a deadly weapon at that point. In addition,

411
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 1: you know, Gayner said that could he carjack somebody? Could

412
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 1: he be scared so that he's going to kidnap somebody

413
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,200
Speaker 1: in another car? Is he going to hurt a civilian.

414
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 1: There's a lot of things that come into play that

415
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 1: you have to play out. And I am responsible for

416
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 1: this person. I was going to arrest and he now

417
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 1: has a weapon that I provided him because he took

418
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 1: it from me. So they are saying justified, lawful. No,

419
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:16,120
Speaker 1: there's nothing justified about that killing. I heard so many

420
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: different things. I heard that, uh, once the taser and

421
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 1: maybe I'm wrong, but they said once the tas is discharged,

422
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 1: it can't be discharged again. And they said that. I

423
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 1: heard that. Then I also heard that, um. I heard

424
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 1: that when he was running away they could have It's

425
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: one of those things where the taser is I guess

426
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:35,879
Speaker 1: you have to be within four feet of the person,

427
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,439
Speaker 1: and it was further than four feet. There's there's so

428
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,399
Speaker 1: many correlations in different things that I've heard about that

429
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 1: you know, But where they fired, I think they resigned

430
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:51,879
Speaker 1: one of them reasons. I think I thought one was

431
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 1: and the other one was. Yeah, the officer who shot

432
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,439
Speaker 1: Garrett Rolph was fired after the footage showed him shooting

433
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 1: up Brooks small ul times and the other officer, well,

434
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 1: the police chief resigned, but the police chief wasn't there,

435
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 1: but the police chief did resign. I know officers have

436
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:11,639
Speaker 1: multiple weapons on them, why not have a gun with

437
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: rubber bullets for a situation like that? If you gotta,

438
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 1: you know, gun somebody down from the back, why can't

439
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 1: you use rubber bullets the same bullets you use on protesters?

440
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Why does it have to

441
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,159
Speaker 1: be real bullets? And how do you justify How did

442
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 1: somebody you know, snatching your tais and running justify you

443
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:28,400
Speaker 1: shooting them in the back and killing them. I don't

444
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 1: understand that lot. Well, see that's that's something different than

445
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 1: there's no way that that one man should be able

446
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 1: to overpower them to police officers and take his weapon.

447
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: But having an additional weapon, that would be a lot

448
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 1: because you think about it, I mean, it would look

449
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,359
Speaker 1: like Rambo. I mean you'd you'd have a real gun,

450
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 1: you'd have a gun with bullets. Then you'll have a chaser,

451
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 1: and then you have a paton. Like it's kind of like,

452
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:50,640
Speaker 1: do you want to confuse the costs with all those

453
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: those choices to shoot me? You giving them giving them

454
00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 1: police budgets anyway, so they might with that. I want

455
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 1: to talk about another start. I don't know if you'all

456
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 1: heard this, but this also happened in Georgia, and these

457
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 1: moms were pleading with a cop who was holding these

458
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,719
Speaker 1: kids at gunpoint. The cop was by himself. He had

459
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:13,359
Speaker 1: gotten a report that a group of kids had a

460
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,680
Speaker 1: gun and we're fighting in the stores parking lot. Listen

461
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: to this, please sar, please go shoot go shoot, shoot, sar. Please.

462
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 1: And so the moms were pleading with the police officer

463
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: to put the gun down and to make sure that

464
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: nothing happened. And it was a group of I think

465
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,679
Speaker 1: like thirty people that were there just telling the police

466
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 1: officer why you got a gun out? They are kids,

467
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 1: their kids. So it was a seventeen minute video and

468
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,199
Speaker 1: they did the children did emit. They were teenagers, that

469
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: they had a BB gun and they had thrown the

470
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 1: gun in the bushes and so, and it resembles a

471
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 1: semi automatic pistol. But I don't know what are you

472
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 1: do in that situation. I mean, in that situation, you

473
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 1: gotta understand, when the police get a phone call at

474
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:07,239
Speaker 1: somebody has a gun, they're automatically thinking that somebody has

475
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 1: a gun, so they have to make sure that nobody

476
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:10,640
Speaker 1: has that weapon. That's why they told them to put

477
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 1: their hands up, and that's why he read it for backup,

478
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: to make sure somebody patted them down. In that situation,

479
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: when you get a phone call and you say that,

480
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: that's why you know, when we go back to community people,

481
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 1: and that's when you know, if somebody in that community

482
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 1: like like, oh, Ray Ray, come here, Ray Ray, what

483
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 1: you got on? You know what I mean, that's where

484
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 1: it comes to that. But when a cop comes to

485
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,120
Speaker 1: a neighborhood and don't know these kids and they get

486
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 1: a call for a gun, I mean, they got to

487
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 1: protect themselves as well. In this case. Yeah, but we've

488
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,640
Speaker 1: seen them get that horribly wrong too. I mean, Rice

489
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:38,359
Speaker 1: was a kid, you know what I'm saying, with a

490
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: toy gun at a park or that. We'll always a

491
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 1: time eight. I think I don't know how you're a kid,

492
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 1: you know what you're supposed to be twenty. I think

493
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 1: sometime this week cops pulled up, just jumped out by't

494
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,640
Speaker 1: even assessed the situation nothing. They just got to call

495
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 1: some kids in the park with a gun and they

496
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,879
Speaker 1: pulled up shooting. So I don't know, it's complicated, Jesus

497
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 1: christ Man. Well, that is your friend. That's made is

498
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 1: somebody losing their life. Absolutely well, that is your front

499
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 1: page news. I'm Angela Yee. All right, thank you, miss Ye.

500
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 1: Now when we come back, yesterday, Yee had an opportunity

501
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:19,719
Speaker 1: to speak with still Alie Abrams. You want to explain

502
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 1: what that conversation was about you, Yes, well, Russell Simmons

503
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,360
Speaker 1: did have a platform to come up here and discuss

504
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 1: and defend himself from the accusations against sim and still

505
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 1: Lie Abrams is one of the women who has said

506
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 1: that Russell Simmons actually she says that he raped her.

507
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 1: And so we wanted to make sure that these women

508
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 1: also had that equal platform to just say what they

509
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:44,639
Speaker 1: have to say and express themselves. So we wanted to

510
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,199
Speaker 1: make sure we gave Sillye Abrams that platform. So We

511
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 1: had a very enlightening discussion on black women, how women

512
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:54,359
Speaker 1: are treated, the sexual violence and all of that. All right,

513
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: we'll get into that next, so don't move. It's to

514
00:25:56,320 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Good Morning, the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is

515
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,399
Speaker 1: DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the God. We all the

516
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Now we have a special guest, Angela Ye.

517
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 1: Got a chance to speak with sil Lie Abrams. Yes,

518
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,440
Speaker 1: she was featured on the Record that is a documentary

519
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 1: with She's one of the women who's accusing Russell Simmons

520
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 1: of assault of rape. Actually in her situation, it was rape,

521
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,680
Speaker 1: and she talks about her situation and she's going to

522
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:29,479
Speaker 1: give you all of this firsthand. We wanted to make

523
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: sure she had the platform. So here we go. We

524
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 1: interviewed Russell Simmons last week and you appeared in the

525
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,400
Speaker 1: On the Record documentary that's on HBO Max, and we're

526
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 1: going to talk all about that. But we did see

527
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 1: on social media that you did not appreciate that interview.

528
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 1: So I do want to give you the platform here

529
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: to respond to what happens with that Russell Simmons interview

530
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 1: and also to be able to have the platform to

531
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,160
Speaker 1: tell you a story. So let's just get that over

532
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:58,199
Speaker 1: with first. You know, I understand that everybody's entitled to

533
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 1: tell their story. Everyone's entitled to share their side of things.

534
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 1: What was incredibly painful for me as a survivor was

535
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: being silenced for so long and the first time that

536
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: Russell pops up is on a show with such a

537
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:25,639
Speaker 1: reach as The Breakfast Club, and that he was unchallenged

538
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 1: essentially throughout the entire interview. And not only was he

539
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 1: unchallenged and allowed to perpetuate a lot of very harmful

540
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 1: myths around rape and around the women that have accused him,

541
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 1: but it was very retraumatizing. It was a traumatic experience

542
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 1: because we didn't have an opportunity to speak. There's been

543
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 1: this huge vortex of silence around the film within the

544
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 1: black community, which in large part I believe has been

545
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:04,479
Speaker 1: managed and negotiated by him. He's a man with incredible power,

546
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 1: and so Russell is the Harvey Wine scene of the

547
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:14,399
Speaker 1: hip hop community. He even prior to Harvey being convicted,

548
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 1: Harvey had become a pariah because of the multiple allegations

549
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 1: by so many different women against him. But those same

550
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 1: standards don't apply to our community with r Kelly or

551
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:32,400
Speaker 1: anyone else that has perpetuated these types of crimes by

552
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 1: Bill Casby or Bill Cosby, we ride or dive for

553
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 1: them until the end. And I get that. We can

554
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:45,920
Speaker 1: get into that later, but just specifically, why I've been

555
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 1: so vocal is because there is a tremendous responsibility that

556
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: comes with having the privilege of the position that your

557
00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: show has, and at times the show hasn't done right

558
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 1: by the community that it says it long and so

559
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 1: in this case, it was it was just wrong. It

560
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 1: was just like it was just not a good look

561
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 1: and it was painful. Well, I will say this, as

562
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 1: soon as HBO reached out to me to have the

563
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: women from on the record on the show, I responded

564
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 1: immediately and said absolutely. And that was the first time

565
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: anyone had reached out to me. And so because I

566
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 1: had done I may destroy you a campaign with that

567
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 1: with them, they had my information and hit me up directly,

568
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 1: and so as soon as I was asked, there was

569
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 1: no question. So I believe that I would say the

570
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club is not perfect, as I don't feel like

571
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: any platform gets it right all the time. But I

572
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: know and I can speak I think on behalf of

573
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 1: all of us that you know, we do try to

574
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 1: make sure that we uplift our community in many different ways,

575
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 1: and if things are triggering, I do apologize for that

576
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 1: because that's never my intention for that to happen. And

577
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 1: so that's why I want to make sure and I

578
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 1: would have given you this space regardless if that interview

579
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 1: happened or not. It was just that the way that

580
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 1: it works. It's not that we reached out to anyone

581
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 1: for an interview. People reach out to us normally, and

582
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 1: that's usually how interviews are booked, and so you know,

583
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 1: and you're right, like I do feel like the documentary.

584
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 1: I reported on it multiple times. I played the trailer

585
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 1: you know, in my roomor report, and we talked about

586
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 1: Oprah when she signed on to do it, we talked

587
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,239
Speaker 1: about it when she decided not to do it, and

588
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: then when it got picked up by HBO Max. So

589
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,920
Speaker 1: while I do feel like a lot of platforms hadn't

590
00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 1: been even covering that this documentary happened, it was something

591
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 1: that we have discussed and I have put in my

592
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:47,719
Speaker 1: roomor report as things unraveled. So I just want to

593
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 1: put that out there for you, and I do want

594
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 1: to talk about that, since you brought it up with

595
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 1: the documentary, just what happened with Oprah, because we've heard

596
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 1: that she felt like the stories were conflicting and she

597
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 1: couldn't sign on. She does believe the women, she said,

598
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 1: but you feel like they were too many contradictions. So

599
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: can you, from your own space talk about what happened

600
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: before I go there, I just want to say that,

601
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 1: according to our side, there was outreach that began at

602
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 1: the top of May. Now whether or not that went

603
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 1: from the specific booker at your show, I don't know

604
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 1: how many bookers there are, I don't know, but I

605
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: know that the outreach had begun because we all know

606
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: if there is a film anything of any import, people

607
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,480
Speaker 1: want to go on the Breakfast Club to talk about it.

608
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 1: We know if we want to reach Black America, you

609
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: come here, which is why Joe Biden comes on here

610
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 1: presidential nominee. So yeah, I just wanted to touch on

611
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 1: that because there might be a little miscommunication there. But

612
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: as far as Oprah's pulling out, there was a lot

613
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 1: of reporting around the drama on that preceded the release

614
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 1: of the film, and I get it. It's tantalizing people

615
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 1: want to know, Oh, well, what's going on. Oprah said

616
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 1: that there's some inconsistencies with this person. And you've got

617
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 1: a campaign that's happening with fifty seven and Russell Simmons's

618
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 1: operating on social media and people. You've got people from

619
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 1: other communities who are just diving in saying this is

620
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 1: just another attempt to take out a black man and

621
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 1: we can't let this happen. But all of this is occurring,

622
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 1: and people are forgetting Hello, there are survivors involved here,

623
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 1: and we're collateral damage. And so Oprah choosing to step back,

624
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 1: that's her prerogative. I wasn't in the room. She stayed

625
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 1: it in the New York Times. She said on TV

626
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 1: her issue would created differences period. She also said that

627
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 1: she believed us, and so I believe that she has

628
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 1: a right to do whatever she wants with her money

629
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 1: and with her platform. I also think it's incredibly disingenuous

630
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 1: for Russell to come on the show last week and

631
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 1: start to invoke Oprah like, oh oh, oh, Oprah, She's

632
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 1: so wonderful, when Oprah straight up just said nah, like

633
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: you had nothing to do with this, Like your whatever

634
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 1: you're saying to try and imply that Oprah is co

635
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 1: signing you. That's not fair because you also know Miss

636
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 1: Oprah Winfrey is not going to come back out to

637
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:38,400
Speaker 1: relitigate something that's in the past. That's irrelevant. What's important

638
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: is the fact that I saw one article for an

639
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 1: Okay player, a tweet about how our film almost became

640
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:51,920
Speaker 1: an urban legend, one of those. And really it's been

641
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 1: this very skittish road to get here because of the

642
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 1: fact that there has been so much controversy. So it

643
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 1: wasn't painful. Yeah, the whole damn experience has been painful

644
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 1: since I chose to come forward, going back in twenty seventeen.

645
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 1: But that is the price that survivors pay when they

646
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 1: choose to tell their stories, irrespective of how powerful their

647
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,839
Speaker 1: perpetrator is. All right, when we come back, we got

648
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 1: more with sil Lie Abrams, so don't move. It's to

649
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:26,000
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela, Yee,

650
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club. Were still

651
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 1: speaking with Abrams. Angela, you got a chance to speak

652
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: with her yesterday. Let's get back into the interview and

653
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 1: you can see the documentary on the record on HBO Max. Now,

654
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 1: you know what I've read a lot about what you've

655
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 1: been through and how Joyanne Reid was supposed to interview you,

656
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,880
Speaker 1: and you had given her your story which she was writing,

657
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 1: and she was doing to sit down an interview with you,

658
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 1: and you had to provide all kinds of receipts to

659
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:59,800
Speaker 1: improve that what you said happened to you did indeed happen,

660
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:04,879
Speaker 1: and then the story never ended up going on air,

661
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,640
Speaker 1: and I know that had to be difficult. And then

662
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 1: you know, we're talking about your son sitting next to you,

663
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:15,239
Speaker 1: and that was one of the most heartbreaking scenes. Was

664
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 1: and I don't even want to bring things up, but

665
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 1: I know for people who haven't seen it that are

666
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 1: listening right now, you know you did detail having to

667
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 1: be taken to the hospital and kissing her son goodbye

668
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,920
Speaker 1: because you didn't even want to be here anymore after

669
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 1: that happened. Was that the first time he had heard

670
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 1: about that. It was the first time that he knew

671
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,320
Speaker 1: the details. And that's the thing that, let me be clear,

672
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 1: I didn't tell. I mean I told there were people

673
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 1: who were present that day immediately after the assault, people

674
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 1: from Russell's camp that came to be with my son.

675
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 1: There are people that my friends that took me to

676
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 1: the hospital, and I never thought that it would go

677
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 1: further than that. You know what, mother wants to tell

678
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 1: their child about something that painful, something that I still

679
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,959
Speaker 1: have a lot of mixed feelings about. But you know what,

680
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:16,800
Speaker 1: sexual violence not only impacts the individual who is hurt,

681
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:21,480
Speaker 1: it impacts their families. You know, when we talk about

682
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:26,279
Speaker 1: the restorative justice model or the transformative justice model, the

683
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:31,440
Speaker 1: first thing that has to occur is for a perpetrator

684
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 1: to acknowledge the harm that they've done, not only to

685
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 1: the victim, but to the victim's family, to the community,

686
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 1: and to the society at large. And you cannot even

687
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 1: begin a dialogue of healing without first having accountability. That's

688
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 1: what's missing in this is that Russell did apologize to

689
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:02,879
Speaker 1: me at Mumba a couple of years later, and this

690
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 1: is detail in the Hollywood Reporter piece. He did he

691
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 1: change person now? Right? He said he's changed, and he

692
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:14,840
Speaker 1: was alluding to being fully sober and also I guess

693
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:19,680
Speaker 1: having a different mindset around what consent is, I guess,

694
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 1: But he happened to be having dinner with Donald Trump,

695
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:27,080
Speaker 1: you know, I mean so it's like and I just

696
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:30,400
Speaker 1: stopped him. I was just like, first off, he blindsided

697
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,840
Speaker 1: me because my sister had died of a drug overdose

698
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:37,040
Speaker 1: a couple months before. That's what he approached me to say,

699
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:41,480
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I heard about your sister. I just she

700
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 1: Melee was a really good girl. And I was so raw,

701
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,360
Speaker 1: like you could have knocked me over. And I was

702
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 1: just so glad someone, anyone would acknowledge that my sister

703
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 1: died of a drug overdose because nobody wants to talk

704
00:37:56,640 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 1: about that. Had he not started with my sister, I

705
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:04,759
Speaker 1: would have walked away. I had nothing to say. But

706
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:10,239
Speaker 1: your question encompassed a lot. You mentioned joy read and

707
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:12,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not going to guess why, but

708
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:19,360
Speaker 1: I'll say that my story was vetted, it went through

709
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 1: it passed standers and practices at NBC. I have receipts.

710
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:30,240
Speaker 1: It was just NBC, as we saw with Ronning Pharaoh

711
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:34,880
Speaker 1: and other stories. They have their own ongoing issues within

712
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:40,799
Speaker 1: that news organization of how they handle sexual harassment and

713
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 1: misconduct and Russell's attorneys strong arms, and I mean it

714
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,040
Speaker 1: went all the way to the top, to the head

715
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:53,479
Speaker 1: of the news divisions and of the company so that's

716
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 1: the power he has to shut something down. And so

717
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 1: when by the time I finally to the Hollywood Reporter,

718
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 1: the story morphed and it became one that was about

719
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:12,240
Speaker 1: how of me too story is killed? And that's what's unfortunate,

720
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:17,279
Speaker 1: is that it no longer becomes something linear. Is well,

721
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:21,240
Speaker 1: why did you come forward? You know everyone came out

722
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 1: in November December, and here it is June, almost July,

723
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 1: and now your story is breaking. Well, it's not my fault.

724
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 1: It's because I got hemmed up. But the Hollywood Reporter

725
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:37,959
Speaker 1: had all the access to all of the same information

726
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:43,320
Speaker 1: that NBC did, and yes, they were pressured by Russell's

727
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:48,480
Speaker 1: attorneys and they ran it. They ran it and there

728
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 1: has not been any civil suit. And to Russell's point

729
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:55,279
Speaker 1: last week, I've never filed the civil suit. I never

730
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 1: wanted anything from him. But what I will not do

731
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:06,480
Speaker 1: is be complicit in silencing survivors, nor will I be silenced.

732
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:11,360
Speaker 1: Think about it. The privilege that I have, the many

733
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:15,040
Speaker 1: levels of privilege that I have, of the relationships within

734
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 1: the industry, of having a certain attorney, all this stuff

735
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 1: that I have at my disposal is what allowed my

736
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:27,160
Speaker 1: story to end up being published after it was killed

737
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 1: by one news outlet. And you know how it works.

738
00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 1: When your story gets squashed at one news outlet, the

739
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 1: bar is set double as high to get published that

740
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:43,719
Speaker 1: with another one. And so again, I keep thinking about

741
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:48,280
Speaker 1: all of rape is a crime that happens in private.

742
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:51,320
Speaker 1: It happens in the private sphere, but it's litigated often

743
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 1: in the public, and so many victims don't have receipts right,

744
00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 1: And I think people are awesome mistakenly think that because

745
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:04,279
Speaker 1: you cannot get convicted right after getting a kised. But

746
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 1: that doesn't necessarily mean it didn't happen. A lot of

747
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:11,480
Speaker 1: people will say, well, the charges got drapped or it

748
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 1: didn't happen, and a lot of times that doesn't necessarily

749
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 1: mean the person is innocent. You know that we as

750
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:24,280
Speaker 1: a people know that police brutality committed against black people

751
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:29,320
Speaker 1: is an epidemic. We know even if the media doesn't

752
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 1: report on it, which it hasn't forever. It's only now

753
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:37,160
Speaker 1: because we have our own cameras and making the news

754
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 1: through social media that people are really starting to see

755
00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: the extent of the harm that's been done to us

756
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:51,320
Speaker 1: for centuries. We know what happens to our people because

757
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 1: we know how corrupt the system is and it's stacked

758
00:41:54,800 --> 00:42:00,120
Speaker 1: against us, So we don't question when police brutality occurs,

759
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: we accepted as truth. But when a black woman says

760
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 1: that she's been sexually violated, and when you look at

761
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:16,360
Speaker 1: all the statistics we know it's a global women's health epidemic,

762
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:21,320
Speaker 1: it's all of a sudden, Well, you know, she's lying,

763
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:26,719
Speaker 1: she wants something, she's a hole, she was drunk. All

764
00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:30,920
Speaker 1: of these rapemisters employed, and I'm like, this is why

765
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:34,040
Speaker 1: I think, in the middle of the movement for black

766
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:40,360
Speaker 1: lives that's occurring, why the death of toy In Salow

767
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 1: just hits right at that intersection of what we're talking

768
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 1: about about a black woman speaking up and using her

769
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 1: voice on a platform like social media to talk about

770
00:42:56,520 --> 00:43:00,680
Speaker 1: the fact that she had been assaulted, and then the

771
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:05,360
Speaker 1: very person who she trusted to provide her some type

772
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 1: of care ends up hurting her and then her body

773
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:16,680
Speaker 1: is discovered. There are parallels that exist in many women's

774
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:22,720
Speaker 1: lives where we know that the majority of crimes happened

775
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 1: between people who know each other, whether it's domestic violence

776
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 1: or intimate partner abuse, and especially rape and sexual assault

777
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:34,040
Speaker 1: all right, well, old move, we got more with sil

778
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 1: Lie Abrams. It's the Breakfast Club. Good Morning Morning, everybody

779
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:42,160
Speaker 1: is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the Gay We are

780
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:45,759
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Now yesterday, Angela Yee got a chance

781
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:48,920
Speaker 1: to kick it with sil Lie Abrams. Yes sel Lia

782
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 1: Abrams has accused the Russell Simmons of rape and you

783
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 1: get to hear what happened to her firsthand. And she's

784
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 1: also featured on the record, which is on HBO. Max

785
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:02,640
Speaker 1: has been can rape their wives. Some people don't feel

786
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 1: like that's even possible, right, They were like, well, you're married,

787
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:10,239
Speaker 1: so that can't happen. But the truth of the matter

788
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 1: is I know women who will tell you that they've

789
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 1: been raped by their husband. And then I think when

790
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 1: that happens, it's difficult to speak up because you feel ashamed.

791
00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:22,160
Speaker 1: You also know that people will say, well, you know,

792
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:24,879
Speaker 1: you guys are married, so if you you've already had sex,

793
00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:27,680
Speaker 1: you already have kids, Like, I don't see how that's

794
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 1: even possible. But then when you hear the violence that occurred,

795
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:33,799
Speaker 1: and I think, especially when it happens to somebody you know,

796
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:37,080
Speaker 1: I think we all know a woman or women, multiple

797
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,440
Speaker 1: women who who have been sexually assaulted and will never

798
00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:43,239
Speaker 1: speak up about it or never tell this story. I

799
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 1: can't think of too many people who don't have a

800
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:49,080
Speaker 1: story to tell. Certain people who have questioned me because

801
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:53,319
Speaker 1: Russell and I had dated before I look, I put

802
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:55,920
Speaker 1: it all out on the table. I had to say

803
00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 1: that he and I had Kis it right? Consentually creates me? Yeah,

804
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:09,160
Speaker 1: it had, you had a boyfriend, it ended, and we

805
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 1: were supposed to be friends forever, according to him. And

806
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:15,880
Speaker 1: so like last week when he's talking about all his friends,

807
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:20,799
Speaker 1: how he's still friends with all these women, I might, well,

808
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:25,319
Speaker 1: I was your friend. I trusted you, and now we're

809
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:31,480
Speaker 1: not friends because you violated me and you destroyed our friendship.

810
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 1: And that is something that it's still hard to wrap

811
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:42,400
Speaker 1: your head around. You know, years later, I think about

812
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:48,399
Speaker 1: my time working in entertainment and in media, and I

813
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:51,640
Speaker 1: think hearing all of the horror stories to your point

814
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 1: that many women share privately but will never share publicly.

815
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:03,439
Speaker 1: I'm lucky it was only two men. When you think

816
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:06,680
Speaker 1: about all of the allegations that have come up, and

817
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:09,839
Speaker 1: all of the conversations and the whisper talks that we

818
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:13,080
Speaker 1: have amongst each other where we don't come forward and

819
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:18,359
Speaker 1: talk about what's really going down in the industry, right,

820
00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 1: and how nobody is holding the perpetrators accountable. And that's

821
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:30,919
Speaker 1: where I think that media outlets, by at least providing

822
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 1: an opportunity to hear the voices of survivors, can level

823
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:40,440
Speaker 1: the field. How does it fail then that people still

824
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:43,800
Speaker 1: legally have to say allegations because as you know, Restsell

825
00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 1: Simmons is saying he took a lot of detective tests,

826
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:49,719
Speaker 1: he hasn't been charged with anything, and so legally it

827
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:55,000
Speaker 1: still is considered allegations. And that others the to you

828
00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:57,600
Speaker 1: to have. How many women have come forward so far?

829
00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 1: I mean it depends upon what you're talking about. I

830
00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 1: believe it's six or seven who publicly accused him of rape,

831
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:08,760
Speaker 1: and then the rest are various forms of sexual misconduct

832
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:14,880
Speaker 1: and harassment, which I guess in total is twenty. I mean,

833
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 1: as far as allegations, news media has got to cover

834
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:22,600
Speaker 1: their behind, right, So legally, you can't get sued if

835
00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:28,440
Speaker 1: you eat, don't ry allegedly allegedly, right, And so you know,

836
00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:34,319
Speaker 1: I have accused him publicly of assault, and so I

837
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:38,920
Speaker 1: don't have an issue with the fact that people say allegations.

838
00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:44,640
Speaker 1: What I have a problem with is when your identity

839
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:48,520
Speaker 1: as a survivor becomes secondary to that of your perpetrator

840
00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:53,480
Speaker 1: simply because he is famous, even around everything that happened

841
00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:56,960
Speaker 1: last week, it was, you know, Russell Simmons rape accuser

842
00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:01,000
Speaker 1: last breakfast club, and I'm like, I have a name,

843
00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:07,719
Speaker 1: and if you go back, I have an identity, I

844
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:14,880
Speaker 1: have professional bona fides. I'm not just an accuser. Don't

845
00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:19,080
Speaker 1: minimize and marginalize me and tie me into the headline

846
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:21,879
Speaker 1: of who this man is. Because that was a big

847
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:24,759
Speaker 1: part of my decision not to include his name in

848
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:31,080
Speaker 1: my first book, because I explicitly outline what happened. But

849
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:35,040
Speaker 1: I gave a pseudonym in the book because I never

850
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:39,319
Speaker 1: wanted because I'm painfully aware that there are people who

851
00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:42,880
Speaker 1: think that the reason why I've achieved any type of

852
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:45,440
Speaker 1: success is because of the way that I look. And

853
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 1: let's be real, I have certain privileges that have helped

854
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,240
Speaker 1: make things easier. But you don't stay in the game

855
00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:55,880
Speaker 1: just because you look cute. You've got to actually be

856
00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 1: able to bring something to the table. You have to

857
00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:05,080
Speaker 1: know your as they say, and so with respect to

858
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:10,440
Speaker 1: my identity getting erased and all survivors getting erased. Like,

859
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:13,319
Speaker 1: I get it. It happens to people. I see it

860
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:15,840
Speaker 1: all the time. I'm just very sensitive to it because

861
00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:19,279
Speaker 1: I remember the night before my story dropped, I went

862
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 1: on Google and I screenshot. I did a search and

863
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:26,400
Speaker 1: I screenshot my name, and it was like, rest in

864
00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:32,680
Speaker 1: peace to sly Abrams, nationally recognized domestic violence awareness activists,

865
00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:36,959
Speaker 1: because henceforth you're going to be known as a woman

866
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:41,319
Speaker 1: who accused Russell Simmons of great And that's nothing that

867
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:45,879
Speaker 1: I ever wanted. I didn't want my work to be

868
00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:52,680
Speaker 1: built around the identity of a man that had hurt me.

869
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:57,440
Speaker 1: I did not want, and certainly not as a feminist.

870
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:00,680
Speaker 1: I certainly was not going to try par lay this

871
00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:03,560
Speaker 1: into any type of what did he say? He said

872
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:06,080
Speaker 1: last week? He said, to be famous or infamous? Who

873
00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:10,120
Speaker 1: the hell wants to be infamous or not? For that?

874
00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: What do you win? What could Russell do? Now? Is

875
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:20,319
Speaker 1: there anything? I want accountability? If we're not able to

876
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:26,280
Speaker 1: navigate the criminal justice system, because what happened between us

877
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 1: is outside of the statute of limitations. And to be

878
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:34,840
Speaker 1: very clear, like, let me bring you back. I chose

879
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:38,880
Speaker 1: not to press charges at the time because I was

880
00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:41,799
Speaker 1: drunk that night, because of the fact that he and

881
00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:47,879
Speaker 1: I did have a prior sexual relationship, and because I

882
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:52,520
Speaker 1: was terrified because of the imbalanced empower and money between

883
00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:57,880
Speaker 1: us and what happened in the examination room. So I

884
00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:02,360
Speaker 1: was scared. Now today, as a woman who is going

885
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:07,799
Speaker 1: to be turning fifty in a month, what does the

886
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:13,240
Speaker 1: grown ask woman want? What I want is a chance

887
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:19,960
Speaker 1: to begin restorative justice. I want Russell to actually stop

888
00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:26,719
Speaker 1: the pantomime of being an innocent and truly acknowledge the

889
00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 1: harm that he's done and then start to make the

890
00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 1: amends to the individuals and the community that he continues

891
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:44,440
Speaker 1: to harm by peddling mistruth that he ends up contradicting

892
00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:48,120
Speaker 1: himself on. So, like, just pointing to the interview last week,

893
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:55,279
Speaker 1: he said that he misinterpreted what happened with Jenny, right,

894
00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:58,320
Speaker 1: And I'm like, dude, you just said in essence that

895
00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:01,680
Speaker 1: you raped her, Like that's what you said, right, I mean,

896
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:06,520
Speaker 1: I guess I got my signals crossed. Well, if Jenny

897
00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:10,319
Speaker 1: says it wasn't consensual and you don't know what consent is,

898
00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:15,680
Speaker 1: well I'm sorry that right, there was an admission of

899
00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:19,840
Speaker 1: some sort, even in the case of me, a drunk

900
00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:24,239
Speaker 1: woman can't consent, right. It's my hope that having this

901
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:29,480
Speaker 1: conversation is an opportunity, to your point, to try and

902
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:38,080
Speaker 1: shift the needle and get something right. By us having

903
00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 1: this dialogue on the heels of what happened last week,

904
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:45,719
Speaker 1: at least there's some contexts. And I can't speak for

905
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:49,319
Speaker 1: the other survivors, but I can say that I am

906
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:56,920
Speaker 1: appreciative of this conversation and of this opportunity because you

907
00:52:57,040 --> 00:53:02,080
Speaker 1: all have tremendous power and you help shape culture, but

908
00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:05,440
Speaker 1: there are parts of our culture that absolutely have to change.

909
00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:11,319
Speaker 1: And letting people come on and not be interrogated on

910
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:15,120
Speaker 1: their behavior, that's not cool. That's not going to bring

911
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:19,440
Speaker 1: about any liberation. That's not black love. That's not accountability.

912
00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:23,600
Speaker 1: And when you love someone, you hold them accountable. So

913
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,799
Speaker 1: I do appreciate you for taking the time to come

914
00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:29,160
Speaker 1: on this platform. I know you are on the board

915
00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:32,000
Speaker 1: for the National Domestic Violence Hetline, and you were on

916
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:35,720
Speaker 1: the board for a Safe Horizon, So just so people

917
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:37,640
Speaker 1: know that there are safe spaces that they can go

918
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:42,359
Speaker 1: to if they do need to seek out help and support, absolutely,

919
00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:46,359

Speaker 1: I mean urban times where I've just picked up and

922
00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:59,839

923
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:02,440
Speaker 1: ago and just said I need to talk because the

924
00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:06,279
Speaker 1: pressure of being of going through something like this, I

925
00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:09,919
Speaker 1: just need to anonymously speak to someone and just say

926
00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:13,839
Speaker 1: this is really hard. I'm having a hard time handling this.

943
00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:17,120
Speaker 1: said I'm a record saying I'm tired of seeing slave more. Yes,

944
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:20,200
Speaker 1: you are, only because only because they show us, you know,

945
00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:22,480
Speaker 1: being the victims all the time, which we were. But

946
00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:24,640
Speaker 1: I'm intrigued about this one because it's based off that

947
00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:27,800
Speaker 1: classic picture we always see with the brothers showing the

948
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:30,080
Speaker 1: whelps on his back. Right, if I'm not mistaken, I

949
00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:33,560
Speaker 1: think I read that yesterday. I'm interested. All right, Well,

950
00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:36,480
Speaker 1: that production is going to start early in twenty twenty one. Now.

951
00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:39,279
Speaker 1: Will Smith is also starring in a Father's Day documentary

952
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:42,960
Speaker 1: called Dads alongside Keenan Thompson, and it will be available

955
00:55:52,160 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 1: all right, speaking of Dads, let's talk about Deja Harris.

956
00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:58,480
Speaker 1: And you know, I actually was watching Ti and Tiny

Speaker 1: to the gynecologists and making sure that her hyman is

960
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:12,319
Speaker 1: still intact. Well, here is what Deja had to say

961
00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:14,600
Speaker 1: she found out while they were on vacation in Mexico.

962
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:22,040
Speaker 1: My heart sank very shocked, hurt, angry, embarrassed by be

963
00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:24,480
Speaker 1: honest for real, that he goes to the Ghyana coologists

964
00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:27,520
Speaker 1: with you to make sure that you're feel aversion. Yeah,

965
00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:29,360
Speaker 1: he goes, Well, what we want you to do is

966
00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:31,279
Speaker 1: talk to him about it. Man, I'm not gonna be

967
00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:34,120
Speaker 1: able to really get through to him like connect here. Yeah.

968
00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:37,840
Speaker 1: He always plays big, honestly, So like, are you angry?

969
00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:40,560
Speaker 1: I just don't really care to be around him right now.

970
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:42,080
Speaker 1: Do you feel like this is not going to put

971
00:56:42,080 --> 00:56:47,799
Speaker 1: a frame over it? Come on, No, this situation is

972
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:50,560
Speaker 1: just a little traumatizing for me. Yeah. I hate the

973
00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:52,520
Speaker 1: fact that she has to relive that, you know, especially

974
00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:54,920
Speaker 1: being as she said it was traumatic. I'm sure it was.

975
00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:58,080
Speaker 1: So I hate to see people have to relive trauma. Yeah,

976
00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:00,160
Speaker 1: And there's a certain conversations in a certain situations you

977
00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:02,279
Speaker 1: just want to keep in the household, you know. And

978
00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:04,920
Speaker 1: I blazed a lot with my daughter too, and you

979
00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:06,839
Speaker 1: know what too, I was watching it and I did

980
00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:10,680
Speaker 1: feel real like she was, you know, breaking down about

981
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:14,640
Speaker 1: to cry, and he didn't really want to like apologize

982
00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:17,720
Speaker 1: or approach her about it and ruining the trip and

983
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:22,040
Speaker 1: things like that, so it was very difficult to watch. Yeah,

984
00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:23,720
Speaker 1: I just don't want my daughter's him and to be

985
00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:26,200
Speaker 1: your entertainment, because that's what it turns out to be, right, Like,

986
00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:29,280
Speaker 1: even if you're even if if Tip had the best intentions,

987
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:31,680
Speaker 1: which I'm sure he did, it still ends up being

988
00:57:31,680 --> 00:57:35,440
Speaker 1: somebody's entertainment because it's on television, you know what I mean. Yeah, Well,

989
00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:37,440
Speaker 1: that's what happens when you have a show and you

990
00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:39,360
Speaker 1: talk about your family and your life so much, but

991
00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:42,480
Speaker 1: you sometimes you don't realize you know, well you do

992
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:44,760
Speaker 1: realize what's going to be, you know, really hurt your

993
00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:46,680
Speaker 1: daughter's feelings, you know what I mean. I've been through

994
00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:48,280
Speaker 1: that too with my daughter. I said some stuff that

995
00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:49,840
Speaker 1: my daughter didn't like and I had to have a

996
00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:52,920
Speaker 1: conversation and apologize to it. It is a process being

997
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:55,560
Speaker 1: having daughters. I got three daughters. Having daughters is like

998
00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:58,280
Speaker 1: having a landmine, right because you don't know when you

999
00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:00,720
Speaker 1: might step. It caused them them to blow up, and

1000
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:03,480
Speaker 1: it's not like it was your intention, you know, it's like,

1001
00:58:03,480 --> 00:58:06,320
Speaker 1: oh my god, you know right, and you know, and

1002
00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:08,760
Speaker 1: I said this at the time. I think as a

1003
00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:10,960
Speaker 1: young as a woman, and I know when I was

1004
00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:13,320
Speaker 1: a young girl. You know where you are very there's

1005
00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:15,439
Speaker 1: a lot to do with women's bodies, and you don't

1006
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:18,320
Speaker 1: want to be invasive over things like that because I

1007
00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:22,720
Speaker 1: can't affect somebody forever. So it's just really important to

1008
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:26,160
Speaker 1: listen to women. Listen to what your daughters have to say,

1009
00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:28,400
Speaker 1: and make them feel empowered and let them know their

1010
00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:31,240
Speaker 1: body is their body and they control that. And have trust.

1011
00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:33,040
Speaker 1: You know, you have to be able to trust that

1012
00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 1: you raise your daughters in the right way and that

1013
00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:38,000
Speaker 1: they'll make smart decisions when you're not around and you

1014
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:40,800
Speaker 1: don't have to check their hymen. All right, I'm angela

00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:28,600
Speaker 1: June seventeenth, goes to the leader of the Trump Administration's

1029
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:32,560
Speaker 1: coronavirus task for us, the Vice President and worst sidekick

1030
00:59:32,680 --> 00:59:36,080
Speaker 1: since Aquaman had Aqua Girl, Mike Pince. Oh. Yes, I

1031
00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:39,640
Speaker 1: come from the era of Aquaman being highly uncool, not

1032
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:43,160
Speaker 1: the Lisa Bonaide and Niece Huxtable husband version y'all have now.

1033
00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:45,840
Speaker 1: I come from the era of Aquaman being a laughing

1034
00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:48,760
Speaker 1: stock and having a sidekick named Aqua Girl who was

1035
00:59:48,880 --> 00:59:52,320
Speaker 1: killed off in a mini series called Crisis on Infinite Earth,

1036
00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:56,920
Speaker 1: and ironically, Aqua Girl drowned. You know how trash you

1037
00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:59,320
Speaker 1: have to be if your only superpower is being able

1038
00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:01,800
Speaker 1: to breathe on the water and you die by drowning.

1039
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:04,920
Speaker 1: Were you ever really a superhero? Anyway? Google it so

1040
01:00:04,960 --> 01:00:07,360
Speaker 1: you can see how trash and pathetic her character was,

1041
01:00:07,560 --> 01:00:10,200
Speaker 1: and you won't understand why Mike Pence is the worst

1042
01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:13,320
Speaker 1: sidekick since Akua Girl. Now, Donald Trump is having a

1043
01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:17,040
Speaker 1: clan rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, this weekend, the twenty if

1044
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:20,320
Speaker 1: our belief the rallies are a big part of Trump

1045
01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:23,880
Speaker 1: galvanizing support. He goes out, He tries his new stand

1046
01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:26,600
Speaker 1: up routine for the MAGA crowd, makes a few jokes,

1047
01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:29,520
Speaker 1: tells a lot of lies, hands out a few false promises,

1048
01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:32,840
Speaker 1: and asked to see you in November at the polls. Well,

1049
01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:36,440
Speaker 1: that disease they keep down playing COVID last name nineteen

1050
01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:38,640
Speaker 1: because put a halt to a lot of those rallies.

1051
01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:40,960
Speaker 1: So Trump has to get back out there and rally

1052
01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:44,000
Speaker 1: the clan okay, or the first one since the pandemic

1053
01:00:44,040 --> 01:00:46,360
Speaker 1: happened is this weekend in Oklahoma, and people want to

1054
01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:49,560
Speaker 1: know is it safe? How do you social distance at

1055
01:00:49,560 --> 01:00:52,800
Speaker 1: a clan rally? Now? Mask or optional? All right? Even

1056
01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:55,960
Speaker 1: the hooded ones at Trump's rally, which confuses the hell

1057
01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:58,000
Speaker 1: out of me because I've been told one of the

1058
01:00:58,080 --> 01:01:00,919
Speaker 1: main ways to stop transmission of the viruses to wear

1059
01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:04,280
Speaker 1: a mask. Okay, what does the Trump administration have against

1060
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:07,800
Speaker 1: wearing masks? Mask are actually great for the Trump administration

1061
01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:11,440
Speaker 1: number one. The magamask would not only be insanely popular

1062
01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:14,840
Speaker 1: and a best seller. It's so much easier to lie

1063
01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:17,640
Speaker 1: with a mask on because people can't see your face

1064
01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:21,000
Speaker 1: being able to read facial expressions to detect lies. A

1065
01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:24,280
Speaker 1: magamask will cover that up. A magamask will hide that

1066
01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:27,440
Speaker 1: false smile. Donald Trump, does you know that false smile?

1067
01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:29,920
Speaker 1: He does just with his mouth and nothing else moves.

1068
01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:33,880
Speaker 1: Magamask hide that. Magamask could hide the fact that sometimes

1069
01:01:33,920 --> 01:01:37,080
Speaker 1: people push their lips to counteract the dry mouth that

1070
01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:40,720
Speaker 1: comes with lying. Okay, sometimes people blush when they're lying.

1071
01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:42,480
Speaker 1: Donald Trump does it all the time. That's why he

1072
01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:46,520
Speaker 1: turns bright orange. Magamask will cover all of that. Okay.

1073
01:01:46,520 --> 01:01:50,280
Speaker 1: A magamask will keep us from reading Trump's facial expressions

1074
01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:53,240
Speaker 1: when he lies. So why are they against mask at

1075
01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:56,680
Speaker 1: his rallies? I have no idea. Now, clearly people don't

1076
01:01:56,720 --> 01:02:00,240
Speaker 1: feel safe about attending this rally for obvious coronavirus virus

1077
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:04,520
Speaker 1: related reasons. So Mike Pinch, being the Jenkie concert promoter

1078
01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:07,680
Speaker 1: that he is, decided to do what most Jenkie concert

1079
01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:11,040
Speaker 1: promoters do, and that's lie to make people feel comfortable

1080
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:13,600
Speaker 1: enough to come. Now, Mike pinch Told reported on Monday

1081
01:02:13,680 --> 01:02:17,480
Speaker 1: afternoon that numbers for the virus in Oklahoma had declined.

1082
01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:20,160
Speaker 1: In fact, he didn't just say declined. He used the

1083
01:02:20,240 --> 01:02:23,520
Speaker 1: word I have never heard Ti R. Stephen A. Smith used,

1084
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:27,120
Speaker 1: And that word is precipitously. Did I pronounced that right,

1085
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:33,920
Speaker 1: ANGELI ye, precipitously sounds right. Well, you asked me please precipitously.

1086
01:02:34,200 --> 01:02:36,080
Speaker 1: All right, Let's listen to what Mike pins had to say.

1087
01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:39,040
Speaker 1: President and I both spoken to Governor Kevin Stood in

1088
01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:42,560
Speaker 1: the last several days and even earlier today. And Oklahoma

1089
01:02:42,600 --> 01:02:45,520
Speaker 1: has really been in the forefront of our efforts to

1090
01:02:45,720 --> 01:02:48,480
Speaker 1: slow the spread, and in a very real sense, they

1091
01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:53,040
Speaker 1: flattened the curve. And today their hospital capacity is abundant.

1092
01:02:53,640 --> 01:03:00,280
Speaker 1: The number of cases in Oklahoma's declined precipitously, and we

1093
01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:05,920
Speaker 1: feel very confident going forward. Now. Precipitously means very steeply,

1094
01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:09,480
Speaker 1: so it's really really, really declined. Huh. Well, you know what.

1095
01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:11,440
Speaker 1: The celebrity and a chief, Donald Trump, didn't use the

1096
01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:14,200
Speaker 1: word precipitous sleep I had too big a word for him,

1097
01:03:14,440 --> 01:03:16,880
Speaker 1: but he said basically the same thing. Let's listen, Well,

1098
01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:19,240
Speaker 1: Oklahoma has done very well. I just spoke to the governor.

1099
01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:22,520
Speaker 1: He's very excited about it. Oklahoma is at a very

1100
01:03:22,520 --> 01:03:26,640
Speaker 1: low number. They've done really fantastic work. But Oklahoma has

1101
01:03:26,680 --> 01:03:29,280
Speaker 1: been a place that I think one of the reasons

1102
01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:31,720
Speaker 1: we chose it is because of how well that because

1103
01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:34,720
Speaker 1: it's early, because of what a great job the governor

1104
01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:37,680
Speaker 1: and everybody else has done in Oklahoma. Okay, both Mike

1105
01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:40,680
Speaker 1: Pence and Donald Trump say it is all good in Oklahoma.

1106
01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:44,400
Speaker 1: For their clan rally Maska optional including your hooded ones.

1107
01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:49,400
Speaker 1: What they said this about coronavirus declining steeply on Monday, Well,

1108
01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:53,200
Speaker 1: what is the actual coronavirus forecast in Oklahoma? What is

1109
01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:56,480
Speaker 1: actually going on with coronavirus in Oklahoma? For asking one

1110
01:03:56,520 --> 01:04:01,320
Speaker 1: simple question, here have cases in Oklahoma declined precipitously. Let's

1111
01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:04,240
Speaker 1: go to Koco ABC file for the report police. In fact,

1112
01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:08,480
Speaker 1: cases have done just the opposite. Another record increase today,

1113
01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:11,439
Speaker 1: the one week average now higher than it was back

1114
01:04:11,480 --> 01:04:15,200
Speaker 1: when the outbreak first peaked, some suggesting could this be

1115
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:18,360
Speaker 1: because of more testing. In fact, total testing is down

1116
01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:21,360
Speaker 1: over the past two weeks compared to the two weeks before.

1117
01:04:21,640 --> 01:04:24,240
Speaker 1: Just listen to that. The same day, Mike pinchon Donald

1118
01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:27,640
Speaker 1: Trump said that Oklahoma is declining steeply. I'm tired of

1119
01:04:27,680 --> 01:04:32,320
Speaker 1: pronouncing precipitously. Tosa County sees highest single day increase in

1120
01:04:32,400 --> 01:04:37,080
Speaker 1: coronavirus cases since the pandemic began. Pinch and Trump absolutely

1121
01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:39,760
Speaker 1: need to wear a mask, not just to spread, not

1122
01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:42,520
Speaker 1: just to stop the transmission of the virus, but to

1123
01:04:42,680 --> 01:04:46,480
Speaker 1: hide their lying ass facial expressions. Okay, America is on autopilot.

1124
01:04:46,800 --> 01:04:50,080
Speaker 1: We've been on autopilot. We just freestyle, and this is

1125
01:04:50,080 --> 01:04:52,480
Speaker 1: a game of rhyme antics. Whatever the last word is

1126
01:04:52,520 --> 01:04:54,640
Speaker 1: that was uttered, find a way to freestyle it. I

1127
01:04:54,640 --> 01:04:57,520
Speaker 1: don't care if it was Corona police brutality protests. Now

1128
01:04:57,640 --> 01:05:00,400
Speaker 1: back to Corona. Just pick a word and find something

1129
01:05:00,440 --> 01:05:03,240
Speaker 1: that rhymes with it. I am tired, Okay, I don't

1130
01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:06,040
Speaker 1: know what to do in regard the Corona. I am confused.

1131
01:05:06,240 --> 01:05:08,959
Speaker 1: I envy folks who are yolo with it. I envy

1132
01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:10,760
Speaker 1: folks who don't believe in it and think it's a

1133
01:05:10,800 --> 01:05:13,520
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory and just be throwing caution to the win

1134
01:05:13,600 --> 01:05:15,600
Speaker 1: and just be out chair. When I'm not one of

1135
01:05:15,640 --> 01:05:17,920
Speaker 1: those people, I'm still in the house. Okay. The way

1136
01:05:17,960 --> 01:05:20,880
Speaker 1: my anxiety is set up. The whole family is still quarantine.

1137
01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:23,080
Speaker 1: We might venture out towards the end of this month

1138
01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:26,080
Speaker 1: to go to another state where coronavirus cases of spiking,

1139
01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:29,560
Speaker 1: and that's South Carolina, But I don't know. All I

1140
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:33,120
Speaker 1: would tell Oklahoma in every place where cases of spiking

1141
01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:36,920
Speaker 1: is this simple advice given to me by every older

1142
01:05:36,960 --> 01:05:40,919
Speaker 1: black person in my license I was a child. Never

1143
01:05:40,960 --> 01:05:44,320
Speaker 1: trust the white man. That quote maybe a broad generalization,

1144
01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:46,480
Speaker 1: but in the case of Donald Trump and Mike Pince,

1145
01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:50,439
Speaker 1: it's absolutely true. Please let Kathy Griffin give aqua girl

1146
01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:53,880
Speaker 1: aka Mike Pence the biggest he hall. Please give this

1173
01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:31,480
Speaker 1: when we moved. She's in the military. We moved to

1174
01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:34,680
Speaker 1: another state and au gusts. That's when we split up.

1175
01:07:35,400 --> 01:07:39,160
Speaker 1: Divorce was done in October and then last week I

1176
01:07:39,240 --> 01:07:43,720
Speaker 1: found out that she moved in a guy in December

1177
01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:47,400
Speaker 1: to live with her and my kids. And I just

1178
01:07:47,480 --> 01:07:53,160
Speaker 1: found it out last week. I found out by um

1179
01:07:53,800 --> 01:07:58,040
Speaker 1: because in our divorce years uh uh, and I decreed

1180
01:07:58,080 --> 01:08:00,440
Speaker 1: that basically, when you were in a relationship or you

1181
01:08:00,520 --> 01:08:03,520
Speaker 1: starting one, that one the background chick gotta be sent

1182
01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:06,800
Speaker 1: and we post to meet the person, not approve of them,

1183
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:11,920
Speaker 1: but just to meet the person. And basically, come December,

1184
01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:15,520
Speaker 1: I saw a picture of hers and one of my

1185
01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:18,840
Speaker 1: people sent me one of her Facebook posts of her

1186
01:08:19,040 --> 01:08:21,759
Speaker 1: taking a picture with a god, and then my kids

1187
01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:24,759
Speaker 1: were taking a picture in the same area. So I asked,

1188
01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:26,720
Speaker 1: I said, is this guy but you got a guy

1189
01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:29,800
Speaker 1: around my kids? I haven't met him, and she was like, well, yeah,

1190
01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:31,920
Speaker 1: that's my fault. It was my birthday. I wanted to

1191
01:08:31,960 --> 01:08:34,840
Speaker 1: do that, whatever, whatever, And I'm like, okay. Then we

1192
01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:38,800
Speaker 1: moved on. Two days after that, I go on her

1193
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:42,639
Speaker 1: page and then go look at his page on Facebook

1194
01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:46,160
Speaker 1: and see that he's taking pictures around her house. And

1195
01:08:46,200 --> 01:08:48,559
Speaker 1: then I asked her two days later, as this guy

1196
01:08:49,080 --> 01:08:52,280
Speaker 1: stand with you, and she's finally gonna sit that miss

1197
01:08:52,320 --> 01:08:55,400
Speaker 1: that the guys staying there. Then when this prandemic hits.

1198
01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:58,840
Speaker 1: Because I'm working, I decided not to be around my

1199
01:08:58,920 --> 01:09:00,559
Speaker 1: kids because I used to have my on the weekend.

1200
01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:03,280
Speaker 1: I was like, no, she's in the military and she's

1201
01:09:03,280 --> 01:09:07,280
Speaker 1: not working. They super quarantine, that's what I'm thinking. But

1202
01:09:07,560 --> 01:09:10,080
Speaker 1: find out last week there's a man living in the

1203
01:09:10,120 --> 01:09:13,160
Speaker 1: house with my kids who's going to work. And she

1204
01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:17,200
Speaker 1: didn't say not one word to me. Wow, that's really

1205
01:09:17,240 --> 01:09:20,800
Speaker 1: really disrespectful. Yeah, I don't know what other way. I don't.

1206
01:09:20,840 --> 01:09:22,920
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do because if that was

1207
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:24,760
Speaker 1: the shoe was on the other foot, or I would

1208
01:09:24,760 --> 01:09:27,000
Speaker 1: be all up in court. As soon as I found

1209
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:30,320
Speaker 1: out that the guy even was around my kids. I

1210
01:09:30,439 --> 01:09:32,840
Speaker 1: met him eight SAP, with him five minutes. I can't

1211
01:09:32,880 --> 01:09:35,160
Speaker 1: say you've mad hand now, Oh yeah, I'm at him.

1212
01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:37,719
Speaker 1: I wasn't mad at him because it wasn't his fault.

1213
01:09:38,080 --> 01:09:40,479
Speaker 1: And guy didn't even know that. Guy didn't even know

1214
01:09:40,520 --> 01:09:42,200
Speaker 1: that I didn't know. He was like, broy even though

1215
01:09:42,240 --> 01:09:44,519
Speaker 1: you didn't know I was there. But she with him

1216
01:09:44,520 --> 01:09:47,200
Speaker 1: for a while before she moved him in. I do

1217
01:09:47,320 --> 01:09:50,839
Speaker 1: not even know. So legally, if you wanted to, legally

1218
01:09:50,960 --> 01:09:54,040
Speaker 1: you could you could take her to court for this does,

1219
01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:57,720
Speaker 1: and that's what I gotta like. My my people was like, yeah,

1220
01:09:57,720 --> 01:10:00,840
Speaker 1: the lord's just gonna take your money. N I mean, look,

1221
01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:02,680
Speaker 1: so how do you so? Okay? So you don't have

1222
01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:04,360
Speaker 1: a problem with the guy. You just don't like the

1223
01:10:04,360 --> 01:10:08,599
Speaker 1: fact that she didn't follow what y'all had agreed upon. Yeah,

1224
01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:11,680
Speaker 1: she did not follow me leaving the person. That's all

1225
01:10:11,720 --> 01:10:13,880
Speaker 1: I want to do. And I met him, I told him,

1226
01:10:13,880 --> 01:10:17,320
Speaker 1: I deal, he agreed those ope issues. Well, at this point,

1227
01:10:17,360 --> 01:10:18,720
Speaker 1: you don't want to take her to court. You don't

1228
01:10:18,720 --> 01:10:20,439
Speaker 1: want to pay a lawyer and do all of those

1229
01:10:20,479 --> 01:10:22,840
Speaker 1: things and make this that type of situation. But she

1230
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:26,120
Speaker 1: is definitely dead wrong and you need to express to her.

1231
01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:28,920
Speaker 1: Look at this point right now, you've done what you did,

1232
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:31,760
Speaker 1: but this was not what our agreement was, and I'm

1233
01:10:31,800 --> 01:10:34,000
Speaker 1: not comfortable with how you went about things, and you

1234
01:10:34,040 --> 01:10:35,880
Speaker 1: need to have a conversation about that so that in

1235
01:10:35,920 --> 01:10:38,800
Speaker 1: the future she's respectful of what she needs to do

1236
01:10:38,840 --> 01:10:41,519
Speaker 1: as somebody who you know, you are a parent to

1237
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:45,080
Speaker 1: those children as well, so you guys have shared responsibilities

1238
01:10:45,280 --> 01:10:48,439
Speaker 1: and because you are respectful to what you guys agreed upon,

1239
01:10:48,600 --> 01:10:50,760
Speaker 1: she needs to respect that as well. And you need

1240
01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:52,519
Speaker 1: to make sure I'm moving forward, because the main thing

1241
01:10:52,560 --> 01:10:55,080
Speaker 1: I would think is the children, right, It's not really

1242
01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:57,200
Speaker 1: about her. It's about you making sure your children are

1243
01:10:57,240 --> 01:10:59,320
Speaker 1: safe and that you know what's going on in their lives,

1244
01:10:59,520 --> 01:11:01,640
Speaker 1: and you need to let her know that. No, and

1245
01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:04,920
Speaker 1: I've done that. My saying is that this is not

1246
01:11:05,160 --> 01:11:07,400
Speaker 1: like the first Foot incident, that you just do what

1247
01:11:07,479 --> 01:11:10,280
Speaker 1: you want. The problem is that you do whatever you

1248
01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:13,559
Speaker 1: want that zero consequence maybe, but this is something that

1249
01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:15,920
Speaker 1: you need to just make sure that you document so

1250
01:11:15,960 --> 01:11:17,960
Speaker 1: that in the future and let her not be like, look,

1251
01:11:18,280 --> 01:11:20,720
Speaker 1: I am documenting these things and the next time that

1252
01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:23,280
Speaker 1: something like this happens, I will take you to court.

1253
01:11:23,720 --> 01:11:26,800
Speaker 1: She's the most farder call a first hurt. Hopefully they

1254
01:11:27,840 --> 01:11:30,439
Speaker 1: I mean that Scar's military PY for some reason. I

1255
01:11:30,479 --> 01:11:32,840
Speaker 1: don't know why I would consult with the lawyer, not

1256
01:11:32,880 --> 01:11:34,360
Speaker 1: that you're gonna take it to court right now, just

1257
01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:36,760
Speaker 1: so that you know what your options are, and then

1258
01:11:36,920 --> 01:11:38,240
Speaker 1: if there's some way that you can go on the

1259
01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:40,160
Speaker 1: record so that you have all of these things, even

1260
01:11:40,160 --> 01:11:43,080
Speaker 1: if you send her an email just detailing everything and

1261
01:11:43,160 --> 01:11:45,959
Speaker 1: letting her know I have an issue with you violating

1262
01:11:45,960 --> 01:11:48,000
Speaker 1: what our agreement was these are the things that you did,

1263
01:11:48,439 --> 01:11:50,760
Speaker 1: and I'm giving you right now warning that if you

1264
01:11:50,840 --> 01:11:55,000
Speaker 1: do something else without following what we agreed upon, then

1265
01:11:55,200 --> 01:11:58,320
Speaker 1: I will pursue a legal recourse. I would do that

1266
01:11:58,680 --> 01:12:01,439
Speaker 1: so that you that way, you have documented, and that

1267
01:12:01,520 --> 01:12:03,320
Speaker 1: if she does something else, she knows that there will

1268
01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:06,240
Speaker 1: be some repercussions, because it feels like there's no repercussions,

1269
01:12:06,479 --> 01:12:10,599
Speaker 1: so she's just going rogue. Yah. All right, good luck,

1279
01:12:44,880 --> 01:12:48,519
Speaker 1: I'm a male about thirty three years old. UM. I

1280
01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:50,559
Speaker 1: was in a situation I was listening to Miss Abrams

1281
01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:53,760
Speaker 1: this morning to live and you know she had been

1282
01:12:53,800 --> 01:12:56,280
Speaker 1: in a situation where she you know, she was intoxicated

1283
01:12:56,360 --> 01:13:01,240
Speaker 1: and and taking advantage of allegedly. And I had the

1284
01:13:01,280 --> 01:13:03,280
Speaker 1: same situation happened to me and I got a child

1285
01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:06,639
Speaker 1: by the mom and uh, I never I never, well,

1286
01:13:06,640 --> 01:13:09,160
Speaker 1: I spoke about it to people in my circle. Even

1287
01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:11,720
Speaker 1: my wife, she doesn't, you know, never believe me. I

1288
01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:14,280
Speaker 1: mean she kind of takes it lightly. Um. You know,

1289
01:13:14,439 --> 01:13:17,680
Speaker 1: men men being raped, just as you know, heard of

1290
01:13:17,920 --> 01:13:20,280
Speaker 1: a lot. And I was just wondering, like what could

1291
01:13:20,320 --> 01:13:23,040
Speaker 1: I do. It's been since twenty and twelve, and I

1292
01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:26,600
Speaker 1: was just wondering what could I do in that situation.

1293
01:13:26,760 --> 01:13:30,439
Speaker 1: Like I never wanted to you know, trust charges or anything.

1294
01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:35,000
Speaker 1: And I was intacticated, possibly drugged, I'm not sure, you know,

1295
01:13:35,200 --> 01:13:36,920
Speaker 1: but I just kind of let it go, especially with

1296
01:13:37,040 --> 01:13:40,519
Speaker 1: me having a child. Um, it's just something that's always

1297
01:13:40,520 --> 01:13:42,560
Speaker 1: stuck with me. You know what. I think that it

1298
01:13:42,720 --> 01:13:44,840
Speaker 1: is important for you to be able to express yourself

1299
01:13:44,960 --> 01:13:47,960
Speaker 1: because yes, this can happen and does happen to men

1300
01:13:48,040 --> 01:13:51,559
Speaker 1: as well. And I do feel like there are spaces

1301
01:13:51,600 --> 01:13:54,040
Speaker 1: that you can go to to speak your truth. That's

1302
01:13:54,040 --> 01:13:56,439
Speaker 1: a safe space so that you can't express yourself and

1303
01:13:56,520 --> 01:13:59,240
Speaker 1: that's important to be able to do. Like a safe

1304
01:13:59,280 --> 01:14:04,719
Speaker 1: horizon is someplace that you could um actually go to. Also,

1305
01:14:04,920 --> 01:14:08,720
Speaker 1: rain r AI n N, you should speak with them.

1306
01:14:08,840 --> 01:14:13,200
Speaker 1: That's the nation's largest anti sexual violence organization, and they're

1307
01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:15,920
Speaker 1: available by phone, they're available online. You can talk to

1308
01:14:16,040 --> 01:14:18,920
Speaker 1: them also. And it is so important for you to

1309
01:14:19,000 --> 01:14:22,080
Speaker 1: be able to express yourself and get the proper tools

1310
01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:23,920
Speaker 1: that you'll need because you don't even know how this

1311
01:14:24,080 --> 01:14:27,960
Speaker 1: is affecting you, right, Okay, okay, I got so look

Speaker 1: tools to deal with this and to be able to

1315
01:14:36,640 --> 01:14:39,720
Speaker 1: express yourself. And you know, I do appreciate you for

1316
01:14:39,880 --> 01:14:43,040
Speaker 1: calling us this morning, because I know you're right. They

01:14:43,120 --> 01:14:48,000
Speaker 1: don't discuss this too often with men, right, and uh,

1318

01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:33,479
Speaker 1: if a person is not in the state of mind

1334
01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:36,120
Speaker 1: to be able to give consent, and that is rape

01:16:04,200 --> 01:16:11,040
Speaker 1: Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Wanting everybody a CJ Envy,

1346
01:16:11,240 --> 01:16:13,960
Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we all the Breakfast Club.

1347
01:16:14,040 --> 01:16:20,360
Speaker 1: Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Lacreix's filling the team.

1348
01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:23,840
Speaker 1: This is the rumor report with Angela Yee on the

1349
01:16:23,960 --> 01:16:28,080
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. So Lacre ended up having a conversation with

1350
01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:31,200
Speaker 1: the pastor Louis Giglio. I don't know how you say

1351
01:16:31,200 --> 01:16:35,519
Speaker 1: his name, Giglio Giglio, And people were very uncomfortable with

1352
01:16:35,800 --> 01:16:39,519
Speaker 1: him in that interview when these comments were made about

1353
01:16:39,680 --> 01:16:43,600
Speaker 1: slavery being a white blessing. People thought that he was

1354
01:16:44,240 --> 01:16:47,760
Speaker 1: okay with it because he was sitting there and kind

1355
01:16:47,800 --> 01:16:51,080
Speaker 1: of nodding. Well, since then, LACRAI has this to say.

1356
01:16:51,360 --> 01:16:52,679
Speaker 1: First of all, I want you to know I wasn't

1357
01:16:52,720 --> 01:16:54,800
Speaker 1: okay with it. Even as I sat there, I was

1358
01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:57,559
Speaker 1: very uncomfortable and I was processing on like, man, how

1359
01:16:57,600 --> 01:16:59,080
Speaker 1: do I what do I say? In light of this?

1360
01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:01,520
Speaker 1: Um I ended up in a conversation with him subsequently,

1361
01:17:01,640 --> 01:17:03,559
Speaker 1: you know, right after we talked, and then I talked

1362
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:05,760
Speaker 1: to him again last night and let him know my

1363
01:17:06,120 --> 01:17:08,960
Speaker 1: views and my perspectives, and obviously I wasn't okay with it,

1364
01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:10,960
Speaker 1: and we can't just be virtue signal and doing this

1365
01:17:11,040 --> 01:17:12,800
Speaker 1: because it's the end thing to do to talk about

1366
01:17:12,880 --> 01:17:15,880
Speaker 1: race on platforms. And I didn't have any Ontario motives

1367
01:17:15,920 --> 01:17:18,640
Speaker 1: other than to, you know, help and articulate, you know,

1368
01:17:18,720 --> 01:17:20,200
Speaker 1: some of what's going on in our world and in

1369
01:17:20,280 --> 01:17:22,560
Speaker 1: our culture. Now. I know y'all wanted to create a

1370
01:17:22,680 --> 01:17:25,560
Speaker 1: challenge that guy on that, But the only thing to

1371
01:17:25,640 --> 01:17:28,280
Speaker 1: be said is the white man's blessing has always been

1372
01:17:28,360 --> 01:17:30,560
Speaker 1: black people's curse. But that's a that's a fact. But

1373
01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:33,000
Speaker 1: I can totally understand how a white person would think

1374
01:17:33,000 --> 01:17:36,200
Speaker 1: their white privilege is a blessing. I can totally get

1375
01:17:36,280 --> 01:17:39,320
Speaker 1: why they would feel that way. But right to please

1376
01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:41,760
Speaker 1: remember that the Craze tweeted out the man's choice of

1377
01:17:41,800 --> 01:17:44,120
Speaker 1: words wasn't the best, but I got his point. Who's

1378
01:17:44,160 --> 01:17:46,479
Speaker 1: putting their career, freedom in life on the line. Me,

1379
01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:48,880
Speaker 1: if anyone has the right to be upset, it's me.

1380
01:17:49,080 --> 01:17:51,200
Speaker 1: Grace and love lead me though he's learning, he's not

1381
01:17:51,320 --> 01:17:54,799
Speaker 1: shying away or silent. Though it's a marathon, not a sprint.

1382
01:17:54,880 --> 01:17:58,160
Speaker 1: And here is what the pastor Louis Giglio had to say.

1383
01:17:58,479 --> 01:18:01,760
Speaker 1: All right, like so many am so burdened about what

1384
01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:04,040
Speaker 1: is happening in our nation right now, and one of

1385
01:18:04,120 --> 01:18:07,120
Speaker 1: the things that I'm most heartbroken about is trying to

1386
01:18:07,240 --> 01:18:10,240
Speaker 1: help myself continue to learn and to help my white

1387
01:18:10,320 --> 01:18:14,720
Speaker 1: brothers and sisters understand that white privilege is real. And

1388
01:18:14,840 --> 01:18:18,040
Speaker 1: in trying to get that sentiment across on Sunday, I

1389
01:18:18,240 --> 01:18:21,240
Speaker 1: used the phrase white blessing, for which I'm deeply sorry,

1390
01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:25,400
Speaker 1: horrible choice of words. Does not reflect my heart at all.

1391
01:18:25,560 --> 01:18:28,439
Speaker 1: I don't to be clear, I believe there's any blessing

1392
01:18:28,720 --> 01:18:32,920
Speaker 1: in slavery. I mean, he also tweeted out, yeah, absolutely, Yeah.

1393
01:18:32,920 --> 01:18:35,559
Speaker 1: He also tweeted out not seeking to refer to slavery

1394
01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:37,960
Speaker 1: as blessing, but that we are privileged because of the

1395
01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:40,559
Speaker 1: curse of slavery and calling it a privilege benefit blessing.

1396
01:18:40,600 --> 01:18:43,200
Speaker 1: Word choice wasn't great. Oh that's what the pass is it?

1397
01:18:43,760 --> 01:18:45,840
Speaker 1: M Yeah, he's right, and I mean that's all the

1398
01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:48,000
Speaker 1: creed to tell him, lacred to say, look, your blessing

1399
01:18:48,600 --> 01:18:52,280
Speaker 1: was a black person's curse. So yeah, that's that's that.

1400
01:18:52,439 --> 01:18:54,479
Speaker 1: That was the challenge. But yeah, I would have just

1401
01:18:54,560 --> 01:18:56,120
Speaker 1: sat there and night in my head. But maybe Lacraze

1402
01:18:56,160 --> 01:18:58,639
Speaker 1: was praying. Maybe Lacre decided in that moment to pray

1403
01:18:58,680 --> 01:19:03,439
Speaker 1: for him right there. That's would have say, was right.

1404
01:19:04,160 --> 01:19:06,640
Speaker 1: I was actually praying, well, I was thinking hmm, I

1405
01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:12,080
Speaker 1: was thinking amen. Amen. All right, Well, happy belated birthday

1406
01:19:12,160 --> 01:19:14,639
Speaker 1: to Gunna. He got a really nice present. Young Thug

01:19:14,760 --> 01:19:18,000

Speaker 1: will be featured as well. Isn't no secret of a

1430
01:20:35,080 --> 01:20:38,080
Speaker 1: Tianna Taylor fan. I think Tiana Taylor gets busy. I

1431
01:20:38,160 --> 01:20:41,840
Speaker 1: think she's highly, highly entertaining on all levels. The album

1432
01:20:41,920 --> 01:20:43,719
Speaker 1: is dope. I got a chance to hit the album

1433
01:20:44,200 --> 01:20:47,080
Speaker 1: a couple of months ago, Join with Erica Bado, joined

1434
01:20:47,080 --> 01:20:49,680
Speaker 1: with Rick Ross, Rianna got Some, got some, got some,

1435
01:20:49,760 --> 01:20:51,720
Speaker 1: got some stuff. But the crazy bat, Miss Lauren Hill.

1436
01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:54,599
Speaker 1: I want to hear that too. Lauren Hill record is dope.

1437
01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:56,800
Speaker 1: I thought it was. I don't want to say, but

1438
01:20:57,080 --> 01:21:02,200
Speaker 1: listen once again. I don't know why Tiana Taylor musically

1439
01:21:02,320 --> 01:21:05,679
Speaker 1: doesn't connect with people the way that she should, because

1440
01:21:05,720 --> 01:21:08,760
Speaker 1: the musically always there. I have to say it's a

1441
01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:11,559
Speaker 1: label problem. I just have to. I have to say

1442
01:21:11,600 --> 01:21:14,320
Speaker 1: it's a label problem because people, even as an entertainer,

1443
01:21:14,439 --> 01:21:18,720
Speaker 1: just her dancing, her videos, her presentations amazing. But even

1444
01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:20,280
Speaker 1: like I said, this song that just came out, I

1445
01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:23,639
Speaker 1: love you know the we made the graduation. I think

1446
01:21:23,680 --> 01:21:25,840
Speaker 1: it's a great song. This is perfect for the times,

1447
01:21:26,400 --> 01:21:27,400
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I don't know why it

1448
01:21:27,439 --> 01:21:29,240
Speaker 1: hasn't been pushed away. It should be. I don't know.

1449
01:21:29,720 --> 01:21:31,560
Speaker 1: I think they should have gave Tiana Taylor money to

1450
01:21:31,640 --> 01:21:34,920
Speaker 1: do like an hour long movie, like how Beyonce did Lemonade,

1451
01:21:34,920 --> 01:21:37,240
Speaker 1: because Tiana's a beast with dividuals, you know what I mean.

1452
01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:39,439
Speaker 1: Do something like that, put the music together and maybe

1453
01:21:39,439 --> 01:21:41,040
Speaker 1: it would have been received differently. But we'll see you

1454
01:21:41,080 --> 01:21:43,240
Speaker 1: on Friday. The album comes out Friday. Let's go get that.

1455
01:21:43,320 --> 01:21:46,400
Speaker 1: Let's support Tiana Taylor. People absolutely all right. And lastly,

1456
01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:49,920
Speaker 1: even Marsalis leaving The Real Housewives of Atlanta after three

1457
01:21:50,000 --> 01:21:52,679
Speaker 1: seasons on the show. She did make the announcement yesterday

1458
01:21:53,240 --> 01:21:55,559
Speaker 1: and she said she does appreciate the bond of friendship

1459
01:21:55,600 --> 01:21:57,600
Speaker 1: I've made with my cast mates and strong person of

1460
01:21:57,680 --> 01:22:00,200
Speaker 1: relationships I have with the numerous execs and producer is

1461
01:22:00,240 --> 01:22:03,759
Speaker 1: at Bravo, and she's thankful for the opportunity. So she's

1462
01:22:04,040 --> 01:22:06,880
Speaker 1: not on there anymore. All Right. I don't know what

1463
01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:09,720
Speaker 1: talking about that because Ninny doesn't like her. So yeah,

1464
01:22:09,720 --> 01:22:11,240
Speaker 1: I don't know why she would come back anyway, because

1465
01:22:11,400 --> 01:22:14,160
Speaker 1: all they did was bully of the whole season that

1466
01:22:14,200 --> 01:22:18,240
Speaker 1: I've seen her a lot. Yeah, I'm sure that baby,

1467
01:22:18,320 --> 01:22:21,280
Speaker 1: she don't go through that stress absolutely. All right. Well,

1468
01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:23,720
Speaker 1: I'm anti Lagie and that is your room of report. Wow,

1469
01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:25,840
Speaker 1: all right, thank you for really trying to y'all really

1470
01:22:25,880 --> 01:22:28,760
Speaker 1: trying to silence black women, which I'm not gonna report that.

1471
01:22:28,920 --> 01:22:31,720
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna report that. Aunt Jamma quit. Aunt your

1472
01:22:31,760 --> 01:22:34,639
Speaker 1: mamma is tired of just being on y'all pancakes. Aunt

1473
01:22:34,680 --> 01:22:38,360
Speaker 1: your mamma tied y'all working for y'all every morning. Okay,

1474
01:22:38,479 --> 01:22:40,679
Speaker 1: whenever you want pancakes, you just grab her and spread

1475
01:22:40,680 --> 01:22:43,519
Speaker 1: her on pancakes. Don't, don't, don't, don't. Don't even ask

1476
01:22:43,520 --> 01:22:46,120
Speaker 1: if she wants to be on the pancakes. It says

1477
01:22:46,280 --> 01:22:49,720
Speaker 1: here is that Quaker Oats is retiring it because it's

1478
01:22:49,800 --> 01:22:53,360
Speaker 1: origins are based on a racial stereotype. That's right, and

1479
01:22:53,520 --> 01:22:56,840
Speaker 1: your mamma deserves a break. She deserves to be retired. Okay.

1480
01:22:57,200 --> 01:22:59,760
Speaker 1: It's based off a song old Aunt Jemima from a

1481
01:23:00,080 --> 01:23:04,160
Speaker 1: still show performer and reportedly sung by slaves. So who

1482

1484
01:23:09,560 --> 01:23:10,960
Speaker 1: person on the face of the box and then they

1485
01:23:11,040 --> 01:23:13,680
Speaker 1: called the white name, still would you still eat? It

1486
01:23:14,520 --> 01:23:19,400
Speaker 1: wouldn't taste that surf, won't have no flavor on it.

1487
01:23:19,760 --> 01:23:22,920
Speaker 1: It doesn't have to have a face. It is just

1488
01:23:23,040 --> 01:23:25,240
Speaker 1: st all I know. Is nobody's free in telling this's

1507
01:24:23,439 --> 01:24:26,479

01:24:29,760 --> 01:24:31,880
Speaker 1: to be able to feel like they can start to

1510
01:24:31,920 --> 01:24:34,519
Speaker 1: seek the help and the healing that you know that

1511
01:24:34,600 --> 01:24:37,880
Speaker 1: you need and to feel empowered to speak up. I

1512
01:24:38,240 --> 01:24:41,280
Speaker 1: want to say, God bless seal Lie. I've never met her,

1513
01:24:41,680 --> 01:24:43,920
Speaker 1: don't notice, sister, but I am definitely gonna pray for

1514
01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:46,360
Speaker 1: her today. I wish her her best and I hope

1515
01:24:46,400 --> 01:24:48,800
Speaker 1: she finds the healing that she deserves. And I just

1516
01:24:48,920 --> 01:24:51,120
Speaker 1: want everybody out there to know that the Breakfast Club

1517
01:24:51,479 --> 01:24:55,120
Speaker 1: will always be open for anyone, especially black people who

1518
01:24:55,200 --> 01:24:57,160
Speaker 1: have something to say, because there are three sides to

1519
01:24:57,240 --> 01:24:59,360
Speaker 1: a story, and you know, if we can get all

1520
01:24:59,439 --> 01:25:02,040
Speaker 1: three sides, I welcome all three sides, even if the

1521
01:25:02,160 --> 01:25:04,400
Speaker 1: person only wants to speak to one of us. I

1522
01:25:04,479 --> 01:25:07,479
Speaker 1: am fine with that, Okay, but I do I must say,

1523
01:25:07,520 --> 01:25:11,080
Speaker 1: still lie. I highly disagree with you thinking Russell shouldn't

1524
01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:13,360
Speaker 1: have been on the show, the same way I would

1525
01:25:13,400 --> 01:25:16,719
Speaker 1: disagree with someone thinking you shouldn't be on the show.

1526
01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:18,840
Speaker 1: You know, if accusations are being made, people have a

1527
01:25:18,960 --> 01:25:21,040
Speaker 1: right to make those accusations, and people have a right

1528
01:25:21,080 --> 01:25:24,400
Speaker 1: to reply to those accusations as well. So I'm sending

1529
01:25:24,479 --> 01:25:27,599
Speaker 1: you nothing but positive love and light. Still a lie,

1530
01:25:28,160 --> 01:25:31,240
Speaker 1: even if you wish me to opposite she doesn't. Yeah,

1531
01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:33,760
Speaker 1: I don't know, And let's just make sure. I want

1532
01:25:33,800 --> 01:25:36,840
Speaker 1: to make sure that people are also just making sure

1533
01:25:36,880 --> 01:25:39,200
Speaker 1: that you show love to still live for everything that

1534
01:25:39,320 --> 01:25:41,519
Speaker 1: she's had to go through. If you watch on the record,

1535
01:25:41,560 --> 01:25:43,599
Speaker 1: and make sure you do, it's on HBO Matts, it's

1536
01:25:43,640 --> 01:25:46,040
Speaker 1: out and it's available now for you to watch on

1537
01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:48,640
Speaker 1: the record. She actually ran through a lot, and she

1538
01:25:49,000 --> 01:25:51,120
Speaker 1: did try to take her own life, and she did

1539
01:25:51,600 --> 01:25:55,360
Speaker 1: even kiss her son goodbye. And fortunately, you know, she

1540
01:25:56,040 --> 01:25:58,240
Speaker 1: went to the hospital and was able to recover from that.

1541
01:25:58,439 --> 01:26:01,240
Speaker 1: But I know it's still a lot of healing that

1542
01:26:01,400 --> 01:26:03,680
Speaker 1: has to happen, and it's an ongoing process. But I'm

1543
01:26:03,720 --> 01:26:06,120
Speaker 1: glad that we were able to give her a safe

1544
01:26:06,200 --> 01:26:08,439
Speaker 1: space where she could tell her side of the story.

1545
01:26:08,840 --> 01:26:12,760
Speaker 1: Right And you can see the full interview on No.

1546
01:26:12,960 --> 01:26:14,679
Speaker 1: I heard you say that this morning about how still

1547
01:26:14,760 --> 01:26:16,000
Speaker 1: Lie I tried to take her own life. And you know,

1548
01:26:16,120 --> 01:26:18,719
Speaker 1: as a as a person who just had a friend

1549
01:26:18,760 --> 01:26:23,080
Speaker 1: commits suicide, you know last week Jasmine Waters, Yeah, I

1550
01:26:23,560 --> 01:26:25,680
Speaker 1: want everybody to get to healing they deserve. You know,

1551
01:26:25,760 --> 01:26:27,519
Speaker 1: you never know what people are going through. You never

1552
01:26:27,640 --> 01:26:30,960
Speaker 1: know what you know, trauma's people have experienced that. You know,

1553
01:26:31,200 --> 01:26:33,519
Speaker 1: they still have those pain bodies about. So you know,

1554
01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:38,160
Speaker 1: I wish still Lie nothing but the best. And you know,

1555
01:26:38,400 --> 01:26:41,840
Speaker 1: I see people on Instagram saying, you know, she sounds bitter.

1556
01:26:42,520 --> 01:26:44,719
Speaker 1: If you've been through what she's been through, you probably

1557
01:26:44,760 --> 01:26:47,000
Speaker 1: would sound like that too. And I wouldn't call that bitterness.

1558
01:26:47,000 --> 01:26:49,760
Speaker 1: I would just call that hurt and anger and pain.

1559
01:26:49,880 --> 01:26:52,320
Speaker 1: And she has every right to feel that. And one

1560
01:26:52,360 --> 01:26:53,920
Speaker 1: thing I will say that she said in an interview

1561
01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:57,280
Speaker 1: that really struck me was the fact that giving up

1562
01:26:57,320 --> 01:27:01,040
Speaker 1: that anonymity that she had before, and she had discussed

1563
01:27:01,040 --> 01:27:03,320
Speaker 1: this in books and she hadn't named Russell Simmons. And

1564
01:27:03,439 --> 01:27:06,000
Speaker 1: now you know, people are taking away her name and

1565
01:27:06,040 --> 01:27:08,680
Speaker 1: just calling her Russell Simmons accuser or the woman who

1566
01:27:08,720 --> 01:27:12,800
Speaker 1: accused Russell Simmons of rape, and I can you know,

1567
01:27:12,920 --> 01:27:14,840
Speaker 1: we have to sympathize with the fact that she was

1568
01:27:14,920 --> 01:27:19,559
Speaker 1: out here successful writing books, you know, winning awards, essays

1569
01:27:19,760 --> 01:27:23,920
Speaker 1: and doing the work already, working with Safe Horizon, working

1570
01:27:23,960 --> 01:27:26,360
Speaker 1: with the National Domestic Violence Hotline and all of that,

1571
01:27:26,920 --> 01:27:30,519
Speaker 1: and you know, just to have to give up her

1572
01:27:30,680 --> 01:27:32,840
Speaker 1: identity in order for her to come forward. Just make

1573
01:27:32,920 --> 01:27:36,120
Speaker 1: sure that when you discuss her her name is Pelli Abrams.

1574
01:27:36,479 --> 01:27:40,120
Speaker 1: She had something to share and to talk about. And

1575
01:27:40,240 --> 01:27:42,040
Speaker 1: make sure that her voice is heard and her identity

1576
01:27:42,560 --> 01:27:46,479
Speaker 1: is always known. And this platform was open for people

1577
01:27:46,600 --> 01:27:49,479
Speaker 1: like her, absolutely right And you can hear the full
