It's easier to be to hide 28 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: on Twitter than it is Instagram. But it is important 29 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: that you are on Twitter.

I see Juicy Genius in the building. 37 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: Shout out to her, UM, so I know she was there. 38 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 1: There's some other folks that I'm seeing that will probably 39 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: be joining UM. They can actually give real time feedback. 40 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: So let me first say I am so for and 41 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: so inspired from the training on last week. For those 42 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 1: who are just listening and asked, what is push the 43 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: line and what is that? Um? There were a couple 44 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: of questions asking is it a movement, is an organization? 45 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: Is it a it is a training, So let's let's 46 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: clear that up right now. I own a business called 47 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: Tesla figurea communications group I trained year around. Some of 48 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: you may have seen me on TV as a news 49 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: of the day pundit. Let me explain that, especially to 50 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: the Twitter folks that only see people giving commentary one way, 51 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: so they're totally clueless on the different types of commentary 52 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: that's out there and the type the styles of commentary. 53 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: UM a news of the day commentator, which means I'm 54 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: booked often UM to do whatever, to talk about whatever 55 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 1: topic that is for that day. So if that topic 56 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: for that day is it's hot as hell outside, they 57 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: booked me, and say tell them come on and talk 58 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: about if it's hot as hell house, hot as hell outside. 59 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: I myself, I take personal responsibility to make sure that 60 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: when I am on TV that I'm always inserting what 61 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 1: is important to black folks, or at least the black 62 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: folks that I am in connection with. I do not 63 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: know every black person. I am not a speaker for 64 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: all black people because we're not a monolithic. Many of 65 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: us have different opinions, different views, and so I just 66 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: tried to represent and authentically what I uh, what I 67 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: hear from people that is not often mentioned uh in 68 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: the cable news space because people don't understand what the 69 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: news of the day commentator is. I get feedback, particularly 70 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: on Twitter, why didn't you talk about this? Why didn't 71 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: you talk about that? Well, just because you didn't see 72 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: me talk about it during that one two minutes hit 73 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: doesn't mean I've never talked about it. It also means 74 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 1: that you, guys have to understand. And this is why 75 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 1: training is so important, so that you can even understand 76 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: like the differences of the things that people do, um 77 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: that that are different and you may not you know, 78 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: even get it. Uh. When some people are booked, they're 79 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: booked on a single issue topic where they may say, hey, come, 80 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 1: we want you to talk about X, y Z, and 81 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: that person is booked for that. I'm booked day of 82 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: not even knowing what my topic is, or sometimes in 83 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: advance next week on the Hill, they have me booked 84 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: Tuesday or Wednesday to say, hey, Tesla, we want you 85 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: to come on, having no idea what my topic is. 86 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 1: So a News of the day commentator is very different 87 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 1: than when somebody has booked just to interview for a 88 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: particular a topic that they advocate for. So somebody is 89 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: known in the police reform space, in the reparation space, 90 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: in any space that they are a uh huge, you know, 91 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 1: an advocate that you hear them talking about it NonStop. 92 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 1: Maybe they have an organization as attached to it, maybe 93 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: they're part of that they booked. They may book that 94 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: person to talk about that. I am a news of 95 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: the day commentator. I'm booked to talk about whatever the 96 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: headline is for that day. So some of you may 97 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: know me by that. But what I have done for 98 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: the last decade plus under TESLAM Figural Communications Group TESLAM 99 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: figuro dot com is I have trained, consulted, mostly training 100 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: for the last decade plus. I have a master's degree 101 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: in adult education. That means I went back and said 102 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: I want to actually learn how to put together programs 103 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: to teach people. I've worked on campaigns local, state and national. 104 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 1: I've consulted campaigns local, state and national. I even ran 105 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: as myself as a change reform candidate. I got off 106 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: the ballot quickly because I realized that was not for me. 107 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: But I learned. I even ran as a candidate before 108 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: I've set on multiple boards appointed uh in in government, 109 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: particularly in Orlando, Florida. So I bring to you a 110 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: lot of experience that I've loved learned from the political spaces. 111 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: My staffing style on how our recruited you guys, came 112 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: from my corporate background, being a staff and manager at 113 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: Robert half in a Deco, the first and third largest 114 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: staffing firm in the world, in addition to owning my 115 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: own staffing firm in Orlando with three hundred employees. That's 116 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: why you got That's why I personally text and email 117 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 1: everybody over five hundred people at least five times until 118 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 1: I was able to weed out the right three hundred 119 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: somebody say the right three hundred on Instagram, weed out 120 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: the right three hundred in the room. It was me 121 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: literally texting and engaging and making sure that people had 122 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: the information. Let me back up for those that did 123 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: who are not a part of this but want to comment, 124 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 1: especially on Twitter, because I'm gonna definitely get to some 125 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: checking in a moment, but I want to give little 126 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: inspiration at the same time when we when I started 127 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: this in June and began the recruiting process of asking 128 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: folks you know share The Flyer went on Breakfast Club 129 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: talked about it. It's very You can get folks in 130 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 1: the in, you know, engage, say hey, I'm interested, I 131 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: want to be a part of it. But then you 132 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: have to start actually engaging people some something that our 133 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: leaders obviously refused to do. Something that these d n 134 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: c s and A b c s and cbcs and 135 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 1: one two threes and memo mees refused to do, which 136 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: is called engagement. So I sent out a couple of 137 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: surveys to people. Wanted to know why do they want 138 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: to be a part of the training. What were they 139 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: gonna do with the training surveys. That was an opportunity 140 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: because I wanted to see who it was engaged. Somebody 141 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: say engaged. See it's one thing to talk on Twitter, 142 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: is one thing to talk on YouTube, But I wanted 143 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: the right three hundred in the building that actually has 144 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: some skin in the game. I'm sure it felt good 145 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: to Lightness and Juicy James, who's listening right now on Twitter. 146 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: I'm sure it felt good to Charlie who's listening on 147 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: Instagram because I see all of y'all. I'm sure it 148 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: felt good to Joscelyn on Instagram. I'm sure it felt 149 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: good to Marcella's on Instagram. I'm sure it felt good 150 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: to sit next to somebody that has some skin in 151 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: the game. You should be tired of sitting next to 152 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: folks that didn't put any effort to get into the room. 153 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: So I strategically set this up. Somebody say it was 154 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: a set up. It was a set up to get 155 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: the right people in the room. A lot of people 156 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: wanted to attend, and I hope I don't. I'm not. 157 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 1: I'm not upset about that. I understand things happen. Things 158 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 1: happened in my life. I had a funeral I had 159 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: to attend. I wasn't expecting my god mother to pass away. 160 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 1: So I understand that things happen. But I also want 161 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 1: you to understand that the people in the room that 162 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: also happened, that the right people were in the room. 163 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: And let me tell you what happens when you engage 164 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: the right people. Even people on my team said, well, 165 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 1: you know, black people gonna show up late. You know 166 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 1: how we do we show up late. Some of the 167 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: people on my team they actually came on time.

Why is it that 275 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: these elected leaders, particularly these black ones, how come they're 276 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: not setting up any type of training to have you 277 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: come take their seat or challenge the people that they 278 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: refuse the challenge. Yes, the CBC doesn't. They have a 279 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: national train need that they do every year. I did 280 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: it in two thousand ten. But in order to be 281 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: a part of that training, a person from Congress has 282 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: to send you. They say that it's a nonpartisan training, 283 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: but really you go to to learn how to be 284 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 1: a good Democrat. How do I know because I went 285 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: to the training myself. So why is it that they 286 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: don't have a nonpartisan training to say you're gonna get 287 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: the tools to go organize even if you're organizing against me. 288 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 1: There were three tracks to the training for those that 289 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: are that that did not know. One was the candidate 290 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: track training. The candidate track training if you wanted to 291 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: run for office, if you even thought about you wanted 292 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: to run for office. There was a training from a 293 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: candidate lens perspective from a four time winning shout out 294 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: to Vanessa Councilwoman Harper from Tulsa, Oklahoma, Greenwood, descendants of Greenwood, 295 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: black Wall Street. That pushes the line, pushes for reparation 296 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: for those of y'all who are listening on Twitter, because 297 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 1: I know you're always looking for that pushes for reparations 298 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: for black Wall Street for more time winners. She just 299 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: won her campaign again for the fourth time, and she 300 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 1: gave you a perspective from the candidate lens. But again 301 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: she was not there to push her agenda at all. 302 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: Everybody had the same core curriculum, which was campaign planning, 303 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: campaign management, campaign compliance, campaign roles and responsibilities. There were 304 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: five there were five components. Every track was from a 305 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 1: different lens. You have the candidate giving it from a 306 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: different lends. So, for example, for those of you don't 307 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: understand what that means, if it was campaign, if it 308 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: was roles and responsibilities, I think that was the first 309 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: UH session. The candidate gave it to you from a 310 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: candidate perspective. These are the type of people that you 311 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: want on your team. The operative class gave it from 312 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: an operative perspective. What is an operative and operative was 313 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: somebody that actually wants to work to get somebody elected, 314 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 1: A campaign manager, volunteer coordinator, a field director, and operative lens, 315 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: so that training facilitated by Michelle was giving campaign roles 316 00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: and responsibilities from an operative perspective. Then we had an issue. 317 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,160 Speaker 1: We had an organizer track, which was the most filled tracked, 318 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: by the way, which is why she had the larger room. 319 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 1: That was Christy Williams from Oklahoma, who is Vanessa's campaign 320 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: manager and also sits on the board of Greenwood and 321 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 1: Texas and and Black Wall Street and still pushing for 322 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: the descendants of the Tulsa massacre, which there's still three 323 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 1: living descendants by the way. So she gave it from 324 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: an organizer standpoint, because even as an organizer, if you 325 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: want to organize around reparations or mass incarceration or healthcare, 326 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 1: whatever it is that you care about, you still need 327 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:42,159 Speaker 1: to know that there's roles and responsibilities of people on 328 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 1: your team, and you need to know what what what 329 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,479 Speaker 1: those team members are and what those names actually look like. 330 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: So each track was set up from that lens and 331 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:54,880 Speaker 1: you got you get in where you're fitting. The room 332 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: was completely full. Somebody on Instagram has tag completely full, 333 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: So for those of y'all on two who are looking 334 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: for the bad photos, the room was completely for all tests. 335 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 1: And why you're saying that because I know how y'all 336 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 1: did with other conferences, if you will, that were similar 337 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 1: to this. But I want to give you some breaking news. 338 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 1: This wasn't a conference. It wasn't a summit. I'll be 339 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,199 Speaker 1: on the summit on they three the Revolt Summit, but 340 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 1: this wasn't a summit. This was a training. I need 341 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,360 Speaker 1: y'all to really make sure, especially those of y'all who 342 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: are who have been really trying to correct the record 343 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,440 Speaker 1: on on this narrative, to see what happens is they'll 344 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: create their own narrative and run with it. Remember I 345 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: told you all that is the beginning of the training. 346 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,440 Speaker 1: People on Twitter, particularly Twitter because that's where the trolls live, 347 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: will create their own narrative and run with it. So 348 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 1: let's be clear in our language. This was not a conference. 349 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: This was a training. This was not a summit. This 350 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: was a training. This was not a panel. This was 351 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 1: a training. This was not a podcast. This was a training. 352 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: What does the training? The training means you're getting step 353 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: by step how to do this. This this this this 354 00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 1: writing notes, taking it home and something to implement, not 355 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: a panel where we talk about the problem. I'm on 356 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: plenty of panels. I do plenty of podcasts where I 357 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 1: talked about the problem. All y'all, what we need to 358 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 1: do is this. What we need to do is that 359 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,439 Speaker 1: I'm not this in any of that because I do that. 360 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: I have a podcast, ay man, I have a podcast, 361 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: So I don't understand the importance of educating people through 362 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 1: the podcast space. But this was a training, and you 363 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: need to know the difference between a training. This was 364 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:28,439 Speaker 1: a class, not a protest, not a panel, not a summit, 365 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: not a soapbox, but an actual training class. And the 366 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 1: room was packed. Let me say it one more time. 367 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 1: The room was full. So if anybody let me put 368 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: this on the record. This is why I'm recording this 369 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: in three different spaces on YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter. If 370 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: anybody trying to show a half fast full room, because see, 371 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: I know how y'all Peter Point Dexter, Revenge of the 372 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: Nerds clowns do. If anybody try to post a picture 373 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: half fast picture it was after we split the room up. 374 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 1: Somebody on Instagram hashtag after the room was split. I'll 375 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,159 Speaker 1: I have already thought way past the juice, and I 376 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 1: didn't think I thought past that. I didn't told y'all cornballs, 377 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 1: I come from the streets. Stop trying to outthink me. 378 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: You're gonna lose every time. So if you're showing a 379 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 1: half ass full room, please know that was after we 380 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: split the room up.

Because after this, all of 422 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 1: the ones I'm doing will be small ones will be 423 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 1: at you know, smaller community centers. By the way, So 424 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 1: I'm not this and that, but I had to do 425 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 1: this one time to show you that it could be done. 426 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 1: Let me say it again. I had to do it 427 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 1: one time just to show you that it could be done, 428 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: because they keep saying it can't be done. So I 429 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 1: had to show you that it could be done. I 430 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 1: had to show the receipts. So it was at a 431 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 1: convention center, so let's be clear, at the beautiful Cops Center. 432 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 1: Just for clarity. Now, somebody might be saying, so I 433 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: gotta deal with all the pettiness. I got to go 434 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: down the list of the pettiness. This is what I 435 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 1: told everybody who was there, and I'm telling y'all asses now, 436 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 1: particularly on Twitter. Why did he get no black cater 437 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 1: Let's deal with that. When when you book a convention center, 438 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: you're required year to get their food. You're required to 439 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: purchase their food. And I had to do a convention 440 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 1: center because I needed one room to be able to 441 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: hold over two hundred people at one time, and then 442 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 1: I needed two meeting rooms to be able to break 443 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 1: out into two sessions. And there wasn't a place in 444 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 1: Atlanta that we could find they could do that. The 445 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: Clark Media Center at Clark University only held about a 446 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: hundred or so, and a hundred black men wanted to 447 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 1: be a part of that. And I didn't want any 448 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: organization attached to it because I knew you Twitter trolls 449 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 1: was gonna wrong with that and say, well that's a 450 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: hundred black me it was a part of it. It It 451 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,120 Speaker 1: is the blue leg I already know all you're talking 452 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 1: point us home me, so I had I didn't. That's 453 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 1: why I didn't wanted that Clark. Somebody say she from 454 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 1: the streets, she already thought about all that. And you 455 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 1: know how I know I'm right. You know how I 456 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,399 Speaker 1: know I'm right. Rain, Look at yesterday's tweet when that 457 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,880 Speaker 1: clown and they're talking about this looked like an hbc 458 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 1: U event. Now imagine if I would have had it 459 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: at HBCU, they really would have been saying, look at 460 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: it this at HBCU to see. I already thought about that, 461 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: already knew what you troll you trolls who ain't doing 462 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 1: a damn thing besides talking on Twitter. I already know 463 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: what y'all was gonna say. That's why I told Clark 464 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 1: that I didn't want to do it at Clark, and 465 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 1: it was gonna be way cheaper to do it at Clark. 466 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: Tells you don't have this, plain, Yes I do. See 467 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,439 Speaker 1: this is on Instagram saying I'll have this play. Let 468 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: me pause for a moment.

When people say, well, I ain't got this, 474 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: plain all that because they don't have no receipts, they 475 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: can't run this ship down the way I'm running it down. 476 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 1: Oh yes, I must explain. I must give all the details. 477 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 1: I must school them. When people say that, it's because 478 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: they ain't got nothing to explain. See, I love receipts. 479 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 1: I love explaining. Ain't nothing. I love explaining. This is 480 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: called train.

She wants 577 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 1: to make sure that she leaves a legacy that has 578 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: fire in it. The protest I was a part of 579 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 1: the halls cloth of Oklahoma City case. My mother was 580 00:29:55,600 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 1: diagnosed she had faith uh stage for lung cancer. The 581 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: day that they were telling her there was nothing else 582 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 1: that could be done, she harried up. There was a 583 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 1: press conference going on downtown. I just happened to be 584 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: in town when they had the press conference. She told 585 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: the people, harry up and get the port out of me, 586 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 1: because I need you. I need her to get down 587 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: to talk about this horsecloth case, because she's been talking 588 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: about it NonStop. I said, Mama, keep the porting you 589 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: because even though they said there was nothing else that 590 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: could be done, whatever a little bit of medicine that 591 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,040 Speaker 1: was left in that port, I needed her to get 592 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 1: all of that. I can go to a protest at 593 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 1: any time, but she took it out and said, I 594 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 1: need her to be able to go down here. In 595 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 1: other words, what my mama was saying, Christie was that 596 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: she's done her time. The time now is to speak 597 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 1: up for somebody else. And when I put this testimony together, 598 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna show you. I'm gonna include my mom's post 599 00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 1: on my mom's text message that she sent me as 600 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: we would go back and forth, because at that time 601 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: I was on the campaign trail one weekend, I was 602 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 1: at home with my daughter. The next weekend, I was 603 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: at my mom's camp uh Chemo, and there was a text. Men. 604 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 1: She said, man, she said, this is your time. This 605 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: is your time. See, there's something about time that you 606 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: all don't understand. It's something about time that people like 607 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: to waste on Twitter. It's something about time that that 608 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: was important to me to understand that time is of 609 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 1: the essence and we are running out of time. We're 610 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 1: all going to die. I didn't expect my god mother 611 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 1: to die on this weekend. I said, Lord, please don't 612 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 1: let the funeral fall on Saturday, because there's no way 613 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: I cannot go to my training. And thankfully she was 614 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: buried at a military base and they didn't do funerals 615 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 1: on Saturday, so it failed.

So it was a blessing for me 808 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:18,000 Speaker 1: to see, you know, some of your facilitators from Tulsa, uh, 809 00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:20,400 Speaker 1: Christie and I forget the other woman's naing who was 810 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 1: a candidate, to come up and really share because these 811 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 1: are people who have produced results, you know, and then 812 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 1: are really serious about their work. And they were just 813 00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:31,680 Speaker 1: saying like, okay, this is what you do, step a 814 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 1: step be, you know, for planning. They were giving you 815 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:38,240 Speaker 1: the real real like sometimes it's gonna be hard. Sometimes 816 00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,960 Speaker 1: people are not gonna support your vision. Sometimes you're not 817 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 1: gonna get paid. Sometimes you gonna throw your hands up 818 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:45,680 Speaker 1: and be like dad on it. I'm tired today, you know, 819 00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 1: and you gonna you know, find your faith, find your 820 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,919 Speaker 1: strength and jot back in the game. So I really 821 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 1: appreciated hearing from the facilitators from different angles. The networking 822 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 1: was great and one tesman is saying that this training 823 00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,040 Speaker 1: was from twelve hours. It was for twelve hours to 824 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,799 Speaker 1: doing lust time. She jumped up there and saw having 825 00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 1: a whole workshop, which was beautiful. When we learned were interacting, 826 00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 1: we got to reflect on what we were learning. It 827 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:11,920 Speaker 1: was a legit twelve hours. It was not already asked 828 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 1: me like, oh, we're there, vendors there with their performance. 829 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 1: I was like performers a venders, This was a trainer's 830 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 1: I just I just wanted to say thank you. I 831 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 1: really enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to the next um. 832 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:26,840 Speaker 1: And I appreciate everyone who showed up. And also Tesla, 833 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 1: I left out one thing. Now only was it seven 834 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:32,120 Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning. It was also raining, okay, and 835 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,600 Speaker 1: yeah that's it. And and and you know, it's nothing 836 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:40,839 Speaker 1: wrong with events and summits and forums and pammos ship 837 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:44,400 Speaker 1: I got a podcast. I'm getting ready to the Revolt Summit. 838 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 1: I'm a part of all of those different things where 839 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 1: we have vendors. But this was a trainee. There, it's 840 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:53,080 Speaker 1: been a it's been a missing component in my opinion, 841 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 1: of having enough opportunities to actually train. The thing that 842 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:58,440 Speaker 1: people ask me the most is what can I do? 843 00:42:58,480 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 1: What can I do? How do I do it? How 844 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 1: do I do it? How I do it? So this 845 00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:03,759 Speaker 1: was really like literally how to do it? So let 846 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 1: me ask you this j because I'm gonna answer. I 847 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 1: see juicy James and Lheim. I definitely want you to 848 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 1: speak Marcella. Marcella'st I see you, please stick around. Let 849 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 1: me ask you because you organize a lot and you 850 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 1: do a lot of work. And my my thing that 851 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 1: I was most concerned about is I knew that there 852 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:22,520 Speaker 1: were people. First of all, guys, there were people from 853 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:25,319 Speaker 1: all over, so let's get that straight. Detroit, Jay came 854 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:31,040 Speaker 1: from d C. We had Chicago, we had Dallas, Houston, Baytown, Atlanta, 855 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 1: of course, Omaha, Virginia. I mean literally, people came from everywhere. 856 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,360 Speaker 1: L A. I was blown away and no worries. We 857 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,680 Speaker 1: got the receipt. So the video will show that. Um. 858 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 1: But one of the things I was concerned about was 859 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:48,880 Speaker 1: making sure because you noticed, even when people signed up, 860 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 1: I really pushed that this was a basic training. And 861 00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:54,840 Speaker 1: I did that because I didn't want a season people 862 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,479 Speaker 1: to get bored and feel like, Okay, this is stuff 863 00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 1: I already knew, but I knew and this is another 864 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 1: training nugget, guys. So this is what I'm telling is 865 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 1: a training nugget on how you organized, setting up your expectations. 866 00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 1: I knew that people were gonna get way more than basic. 867 00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:09,960 Speaker 1: I knew that no matter how much experience you had, 868 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: you were going to get something. But I didn't market 869 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,799 Speaker 1: it that way because then you set up the expectation 870 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:16,880 Speaker 1: that somebody comes in and says, you said I was 871 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 1: gonna get something. I didn't get anything. So it was 872 00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:21,760 Speaker 1: very strategic when I said it was basic, basic level, 873 00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 1: but we still have people from all over It was. 874 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 1: We had people as young as sixteen, all the way 875 00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 1: older than seventy years old that were there. So you 876 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 1: have a lot of experience. Was there something that you 877 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 1: can point to that at least was an Aha moment 878 00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 1: for you or something that you didn't know previous? Um, 879 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:42,759 Speaker 1: I know there was a lot of confirmation for a 880 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 1: lot of people like Okay, yeah, I've been doing this right. 881 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:48,440 Speaker 1: But was there a particular session that you really appreciated 882 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:52,280 Speaker 1: that that add that added another tool and you're already 883 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:57,359 Speaker 1: you know, full toolbox. Yeah. I mean for me it 884 00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:01,080 Speaker 1: was it was all good. I really enjoyed. I mean 885 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:03,440 Speaker 1: I came there as sign up for the organizing training 886 00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 1: and I got a lot of out of that. But 887 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,960 Speaker 1: when I went into the operative training, and I thought 888 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 1: about ways in which I could be an operative, like 889 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 1: ways in which I could support like for example, ourselves 890 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 1: campaign or other folks this campaign that don't live in 891 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:20,040 Speaker 1: my city. That was definitely an AHA moment. And because 892 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,799 Speaker 1: it was like, you know, I was hearing testimonials UM 893 00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:26,000 Speaker 1: and people would the facilitator was saying, UM, your sister 894 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:30,400 Speaker 1: with her name Michelle. Michelle was saying, like, you don't 895 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:34,359 Speaker 1: like sometimes like the people in your city aren't gonna 896 00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 1: rock with you. And so if you're a candidate, you 897 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 1: can pull from people from around the country to really 898 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:41,799 Speaker 1: support you. And then she was talking about how she 899 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:44,799 Speaker 1: worked on campaigns like outside of her city. So that 900 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:48,319 Speaker 1: gave me more insight UM in terms of how I 901 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:50,840 Speaker 1: can't expand how I can organize and also be an 902 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:53,760 Speaker 1: operative at the same time. So that was extremely helpful 903 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:56,479 Speaker 1: in terms of the point you were making, UM making 904 00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 1: sure that like season folks you know, didn't feel bored. 905 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,440 Speaker 1: I am of the mind that any time I go 906 00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:04,719 Speaker 1: anywhere right, if I'm supposed to be in that wrong, 907 00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:06,279 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be in that room, and there's something for 908 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:08,239 Speaker 1: me to gain and learn. And we also want to 909 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:11,440 Speaker 1: separate ourselves from people who feel like they know everything 910 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:14,359 Speaker 1: or you know, I've been it. I saw that before 911 00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:15,880 Speaker 1: I already know that. I already know that well all 912 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:18,600 Speaker 1: those all I already know that people are missing jewels 913 00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 1: in real time because you know, when you're a facilitator 914 00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 1: and you facilitate training, you understand that you are guiding 915 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:28,400 Speaker 1: the conversation, you're giving tools, and you're creating a form 916 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,359 Speaker 1: for teaching and learning. But also the folks who are 917 00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 1: in the room, the participants, they're generating the teaching and learning. 918 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:36,880 Speaker 1: And so I was really blown away by a lot 919 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 1: of the questions that I was hearing from all of 920 00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 1: the rooms, like the participants across the board and some 921 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:44,279 Speaker 1: of their insight, and it just it just we just 922 00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:47,880 Speaker 1: went really really deep and said every single aspect of 923 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:51,239 Speaker 1: organizing and being an operative. And I really appreciated that, 924 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:57,600 Speaker 1: UM are sisters telling tesman's body is real, y'all. I 925 00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:02,319 Speaker 1: saw the people looking at again, but no, she's she's 926 00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 1: she's inside it out right, So that the testing that 927 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 1: you see on television on social media is the same 928 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,399 Speaker 1: system you're gonna mean in person. She's a sweetheart, she's 929 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:14,920 Speaker 1: a cancer. So I have a lot of cancers, UM 930 00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:17,480 Speaker 1: in my circle. They're the sweetest part. But when we 931 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:19,800 Speaker 1: will cut your ass and just for clarity. I'm a 932 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 1: Gemini cancel custom. I can't take all the cats. I 933 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:23,920 Speaker 1: got a lot of gym and on me.

And I thank you, Teslain, 1027 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:44,480 Speaker 1: I'm so honored. My personal testament, my personal story, my 1028 00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:48,880 Speaker 1: personal testimony is that I'm a Georgia resident and I 1029 00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:51,800 Speaker 1: just happened to find you on Twitter. I wasn't aware 1030 00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:54,840 Speaker 1: you was on MSNBC. I wasn't aware of your resume 1031 00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:57,520 Speaker 1: until after I actually came into one of your Twitter 1032 00:51:57,560 --> 00:52:00,040 Speaker 1: spaces and you allow me to come up on the 1033 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:03,320 Speaker 1: on the uh on the stage and ask the question 1034 00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:05,920 Speaker 1: about what can I do? And you told me to 1035 00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:08,239 Speaker 1: get to work and that's what I did, and so 1036 00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:10,399 Speaker 1: I tended to training and one of the most one 1037 00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:13,120 Speaker 1: of the most important things that I took away was 1038 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:15,560 Speaker 1: the fact of the calling and the purpose and alignment. 1039 00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:18,480 Speaker 1: There's a reason why we were all there. That's solid 1040 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:21,080 Speaker 1: three hundred. There was a reason why you can't come 1041 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:23,800 Speaker 1: in there and be folded and being afraid. Well West 1042 00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:26,200 Speaker 1: was saying, you are either called to do this or 1043 00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:27,719 Speaker 1: you just called to sit on the top of the 1044 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 1: sidelines and watch from afar.

So that's something that I took away. Um, 1071 00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:45,520 Speaker 1: this is something that is in my purpose. Is it 1072 00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:48,040 Speaker 1: something I feel led to do? Uh? I don't know 1073 00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:50,000 Speaker 1: what I was doing.

The first thing I started out 1135 00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:42,480 Speaker 1: with this training was defining your win. Every win. Every 1136 00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:44,960 Speaker 1: loss is not a loss, Every win ain't a win. 1137 00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:46,879 Speaker 1: What is your plan? What is your plan? B plan? 1138 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 1: But even when I commended you, I'm just gonna tell 1139 00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:51,760 Speaker 1: you just keeping it real. When I commended you. Somebody 1140 00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 1: came in a support of yours obviously and say, well, 1141 00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:56,520 Speaker 1: why you didn't talk about Marcelle on the Breakfast Club. 1142 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:59,000 Speaker 1: Let me be clear to y'all on Twitter, y'all tell 1143 00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:01,359 Speaker 1: me what to do. I'm not ourselves publicists. I talked 1144 00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:02,919 Speaker 1: about what I want to talk about when I get 1145 00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:04,680 Speaker 1: good and damn ready to talk about that. I don't 1146 00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:07,640 Speaker 1: disrespect to you myself, but because I'm seasoned enough to 1147 00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:10,000 Speaker 1: know how this works, I still support what it is 1148 00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:12,760 Speaker 1: that you're doing. But nobody's gonna punk me into saying anything. 1149 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:15,239 Speaker 1: Nobody tells me what to say. I appreciate what Juicy 1150 00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:17,160 Speaker 1: just say. Y'all need to use your platforms to spread 1151 00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:19,120 Speaker 1: the message. But let me double back down and say 1152 00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:20,880 Speaker 1: that if you don't never spread my message, if you 1153 00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:23,200 Speaker 1: don't never share ship, I'm gonna get these people in 1154 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:25,720 Speaker 1: the room because I know how to organize, and that's 1155 00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:27,920 Speaker 1: what I want people to remember. Whether people support you 1156 00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:31,160 Speaker 1: don't support you, you still have to hustle. I wasn't 1157 00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:32,959 Speaker 1: on the bread I was booked on there talking about 1158 00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:35,160 Speaker 1: what I was talking about, and that's not how to 1159 00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:37,160 Speaker 1: build allies either. I know you didn't do that. That 1160 00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:40,640 Speaker 1: was somebody else. But again, you guys have to believe 1161 00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:42,560 Speaker 1: in what you believe in, you have to push it. 1162 00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:46,680 Speaker 1: Use outside resources. Uh, don't use outside resources. If you 1163 00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:49,200 Speaker 1: don't have no outside resources, do it by your damn self. 1164 00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:51,560 Speaker 1: But your name does keep coming up over and over. 1165 00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:53,960 Speaker 1: You got these suicists here that are wanting to support you, 1166 00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:56,000 Speaker 1: and I hope you know that that you guys are 1167 00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:58,320 Speaker 1: able to use at least something from this training to 1168 00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:01,520 Speaker 1: actually be able to help somebody to either be a disruptor. 1169 00:58:01,560 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 1: We covered that in the training. It talked about what 1170 00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:07,560 Speaker 1: it meant to be a disruptor and establishment candidate, to 1171 00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:11,280 Speaker 1: change aging candidate, UM, somebody that just really literally is 1172 00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:13,720 Speaker 1: running to shake it up, like we dealt with all 1173 00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:15,320 Speaker 1: of that, and you're just not gonna get that. I've 1174 00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:17,280 Speaker 1: been the most of these trainers. I've been this critengresional, 1175 00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:19,240 Speaker 1: that Caucus training. I've been the vote Run lead. I've 1176 00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:21,160 Speaker 1: been to the White House Project, I've been to Yale 1177 00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:25,440 Speaker 1: uh Campaign School for Women. I've been to Emily's List Ruthless, 1178 00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:28,280 Speaker 1: I've been to a lot of trainings, and I wanted 1179 00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:30,720 Speaker 1: this training to give people the real deal that I 1180 00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:33,760 Speaker 1: just do not hear all the time. It was very 1181 00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:38,360 Speaker 1: boot camp oriented in a way of saying, um, I 1182 00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:40,800 Speaker 1: don't want everybody to be a part of this. I 1183 00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:43,480 Speaker 1: only want the reel in the room. That's literally like 1184 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:47,240 Speaker 1: the military. The military is about pushing everybody out and 1185 00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:59,480 Speaker 1: not keeping everybody in. So it had that mindset we 1186 00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:02,280 Speaker 1: have to be okay. We're telling people it's okay unsubscribed. 1187 00:59:02,680 --> 00:59:04,760 Speaker 1: You don't like it unsubscribed, you don't up out of here. 1188 00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:06,560 Speaker 1: We got to be okay with that. But you still 1189 00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:09,960 Speaker 1: need people like Juicy, who is a professional publicist of PR. 1190 00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:12,800 Speaker 1: Look check out her information that is gonna be marketing 1191 00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:14,920 Speaker 1: and is gonna say, hey, y'all come following Tesla, y'all 1192 00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:17,280 Speaker 1: come support what you're doing. I'm just reminding you that 1193 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 1: if you don't never follow you see them people in 1194 00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:22,760 Speaker 1: their room, don't you. Nahi might want to bring you 1195 00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:24,920 Speaker 1: up line that you you had something. I'm adding you 1196 00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:26,760 Speaker 1: Naheim and um line that you got your hand up. 1197 00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:29,320 Speaker 1: You want to chime in on that. Yes, I just 1198 00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:32,280 Speaker 1: wanted to say that you gave a really great demonstration 1199 00:59:32,360 --> 00:59:34,880 Speaker 1: of what it means um and how much work is 1200 00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:38,400 Speaker 1: work it takes to organize when it's not a reactionary 1201 00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:42,760 Speaker 1: issue um at play for example, when a cop kills 1202 00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:45,640 Speaker 1: a black person, or if a Chinese person for example, 1203 00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:48,600 Speaker 1: and some establishments you have a lot of a black person, 1204 00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 1: it's easier to get a whole bunch of people to 1205 00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:55,200 Speaker 1: show up somewhere to pull up my short notice. But 1206 00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:59,560 Speaker 1: what you did was very very um strategic and engaging 1207 00:59:59,560 --> 01:00:02,600 Speaker 1: in turn. Is it the text messages, the emails, the surveys, 1208 01:00:03,120 --> 01:00:06,680 Speaker 1: you know, you engage your audiences from your social media 1209 01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:10,080 Speaker 1: and you continue to you know, to organize that way, 1210 01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:12,920 Speaker 1: and that takes a lot more energy and you get 1211 01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:15,840 Speaker 1: a different caligori of people to do it because they're 1212 01:00:15,880 --> 01:00:18,800 Speaker 1: serious and they're passionate about it. First, he's being reactionary, 1213 01:00:18,800 --> 01:00:20,520 Speaker 1: and so I wanted to name that. It's something that 1214 01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:23,080 Speaker 1: I also learned. Yeah. Also remember y'all got homework for 1215 01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:25,800 Speaker 1: those who listening. Guys, we set out homework and a 1216 01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 1: political glossary so that people could be prepared, you know, 1217 01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:31,600 Speaker 1: before they came to the training to even start thinking about, 1218 01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:34,080 Speaker 1: you know, what was going to be in this class. 1219 01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:38,640 Speaker 1: So thank you for naming that, Nahim, I got you up, 1220 01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:42,960 Speaker 1: huh nahin tall to tell y'all know, I gave the 1221 01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:45,720 Speaker 1: women I gave him, they love, but not how tall 1222 01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:47,840 Speaker 1: are you?

And now you mom said, y'all know, I 1232 01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:19,360 Speaker 1: get distract distracted, I'm all over the place. It's school. 1233 01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:23,400 Speaker 1: It's school. Um. You know. First and foremost, Sis honestly 1234 01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:28,200 Speaker 1: honorest to you that it was a powerful, powerful event, 1235 01:01:28,960 --> 01:01:33,000 Speaker 1: and in my estimation, I believe that it was one 1236 01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:38,560 Speaker 1: of the most important political events for our people in 1237 01:01:38,600 --> 01:01:41,360 Speaker 1: the past several decades. And I'm to tell you why 1238 01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:47,000 Speaker 1: I see that, you know, when you when you launch 1239 01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:51,720 Speaker 1: on Twitter, because that's what I heard about it at first, 1240 01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:55,520 Speaker 1: and I came in face you said what this is 1241 01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:59,000 Speaker 1: going to be and what it wasn't going to You 1242 01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:03,280 Speaker 1: said it was not going to be a politically a 1243 01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:09,080 Speaker 1: gender driven event, and it wasn't. There was a zero 1244 01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:12,360 Speaker 1: of that. So nobody can't make that claim because I 1245 01:02:12,440 --> 01:02:15,200 Speaker 1: was there and like I said, who's gonna challenge me 1246 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:22,640 Speaker 1: all my credibility? I mean it is, it is. That's right, 1247 01:02:22,680 --> 01:02:27,560 Speaker 1: that's my nickname, which is just the fact. So I 1248 01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:32,160 Speaker 1: learned so much more. You know, everybody thinks they know 1249 01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 1: some self. I'm I'll call myself a lifelong student. Although 1250 01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:41,800 Speaker 1: we do some teaching, and I was fake. I'm always 1251 01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:46,640 Speaker 1: always learning. And then with things that I learned at 1252 01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:51,080 Speaker 1: this event that will help me and help those for him, 1253 01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:55,600 Speaker 1: I may have some influence over as you know, as 1254 01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:59,400 Speaker 1: I personally moved forward, as I moved forward with my organization, 1255 01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:05,960 Speaker 1: et cetera. And do you ask line, that's the question 1256 01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:10,760 Speaker 1: about that one thing that that suck our And I'm 1257 01:03:10,840 --> 01:03:16,640 Speaker 1: gonna answer that. It was when you said it's on me, yes, yes, 1258 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:19,000 Speaker 1: let me let me pause right there before you say 1259 01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:22,200 Speaker 1: that that was the main thing that was the topic 1260 01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:25,920 Speaker 1: that I made sure the trainers, I said this particular 1261 01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:29,120 Speaker 1: sub topics because I've came up with their name. It's 1262 01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:31,600 Speaker 1: all about it's it's all about weed. But it it's 1263 01:03:31,600 --> 01:03:33,920 Speaker 1: all on me, and and I did that line, and 1264 01:03:33,920 --> 01:03:35,760 Speaker 1: I'm pedipin right there. Don't forget, but I just want 1265 01:03:35,760 --> 01:03:37,960 Speaker 1: to pin that some people know why I came up 1266 01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:41,280 Speaker 1: with that particularly sub topic because even with my even 1267 01:03:41,320 --> 01:03:44,080 Speaker 1: with my team, I was frustrated. I was frustrated even 1268 01:03:44,080 --> 01:03:46,120 Speaker 1: more on my team because I'm like, y'all can't get 1269 01:03:46,200 --> 01:03:47,920 Speaker 1: more people to come. You're not sharing it. I'm not 1270 01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:50,560 Speaker 1: saying some people didn't even share it, and I wanted 1271 01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:53,000 Speaker 1: and I called them out as well, because at the end, 1272 01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:55,280 Speaker 1: they this is my brand and it's not from a 1273 01:03:55,480 --> 01:03:58,840 Speaker 1: I want a bragg standpoint, but it's from this falls 1274 01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:01,320 Speaker 1: on me because if it failed, they would have been 1275 01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:04,080 Speaker 1: talking O Tesla failed. They wouldn't have said, oh, Chrissy fail, 1276 01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:06,360 Speaker 1: Michelle fail, but that's a fair It would have been 1277 01:04:06,360 --> 01:04:09,080 Speaker 1: on me. So I stayed on people's ass and I'm 1278 01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:12,400 Speaker 1: talking about on the ass about anything they said they 1279 01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:14,920 Speaker 1: was gonna do. You had to do it or move around. 1280 01:04:15,240 --> 01:04:17,920 Speaker 1: And I want people to understand what that means you. 1281 01:04:18,120 --> 01:04:20,840 Speaker 1: It's great when people come in and help, but if 1282 01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:23,120 Speaker 1: they do not, it falls on you. And that's what 1283 01:04:23,240 --> 01:04:25,800 Speaker 1: scares people. You don't hear that in trainings because they 1284 01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:28,720 Speaker 1: want you to create this utopia thing. We together, we 1285 01:04:28,760 --> 01:04:31,280 Speaker 1: can get weak together. We we we we we that's 1286 01:04:31,320 --> 01:04:33,440 Speaker 1: great if as we, but it ultimately falls on you. 1287 01:04:33,600 --> 01:04:35,320 Speaker 1: And that was the man. I'm so glad you pointed 1288 01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:37,160 Speaker 1: that up because that was the main sub topic that 1289 01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:39,520 Speaker 1: I told the ladies. Make sure you drill and tell 1290 01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:43,160 Speaker 1: them the truth. Do not bullshit these people. Tell them 1291 01:04:43,160 --> 01:04:45,640 Speaker 1: the truth. And I also told everybody in the training 1292 01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:48,400 Speaker 1: that if any one of these trainers start pushing an agenda, 1293 01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:50,919 Speaker 1: you better damn well come snitch on them. Snitches don't 1294 01:04:50,920 --> 01:04:52,720 Speaker 1: get stitches, so I can stop it right there and there. 1295 01:04:52,720 --> 01:04:54,320 Speaker 1: And I said that in front of the trainers, but 1296 01:04:54,440 --> 01:04:55,760 Speaker 1: go ahead, and naim, I just want to put a 1297 01:04:55,760 --> 01:04:58,880 Speaker 1: pen on that so they know what you were talking about. Definitely, 1298 01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:05,120 Speaker 1: that's the stage for me and understanding everything else that 1299 01:05:05,240 --> 01:05:09,800 Speaker 1: was presented throughout the day. And we had an example 1300 01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:13,560 Speaker 1: of that with the young lady in the candidate room 1301 01:05:13,840 --> 01:05:16,440 Speaker 1: that you were trying to school but she was trying 1302 01:05:16,480 --> 01:05:18,840 Speaker 1: to I think I can't really remember what she was 1303 01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:22,560 Speaker 1: trying to push, like I don't remember from the system, 1304 01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:27,479 Speaker 1: and you had the schools system you because answer never change, 1305 01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:31,280 Speaker 1: you had to never change and you know, I was 1306 01:05:31,600 --> 01:05:36,880 Speaker 1: wondering if she had listened to what was set in 1307 01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:41,520 Speaker 1: the earlier room and organizing the space before everybody split up, 1308 01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:45,080 Speaker 1: that it's on you. If that's what you feel, then 1309 01:05:45,120 --> 01:05:50,360 Speaker 1: you're going to have to get momentum behind your idea 1310 01:05:50,480 --> 01:05:53,760 Speaker 1: by finding the people that sink along the lines, that 1311 01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:56,960 Speaker 1: think the way that you think is then pull them 1312 01:05:57,080 --> 01:06:01,080 Speaker 1: into I mean, I don't know if her thing was 1313 01:06:01,160 --> 01:06:03,960 Speaker 1: political or a political, but I wasn't really short. Yeah, 1314 01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:06,560 Speaker 1: we always confused. Charlie was confused. So he's over on 1315 01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:08,760 Speaker 1: the Instagram. I'm looking at this guy. We didn't we 1316 01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:10,920 Speaker 1: didn't know what it was. But I can't repeat to 1317 01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:14,880 Speaker 1: say I know exactly you're talking about. But that was 1318 01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:17,640 Speaker 1: that was the biggest thing. Like last year, um, you know, 1319 01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:22,520 Speaker 1: organized the reparations rally in Atlanta, Georgia. It was my 1320 01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:25,280 Speaker 1: first time doing it. It was only over the place. 1321 01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:26,760 Speaker 1: I want to give a shout out to my brother 1322 01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:30,400 Speaker 1: ty Hawfen because he got military experience. He came up 1323 01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:32,400 Speaker 1: to me said, right, brother, not he this is what 1324 01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:34,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do. I'm gonna have all the speakers lined 1325 01:06:34,840 --> 01:06:38,760 Speaker 1: up overhead. We're gonna do an introduction to he speaking 1326 01:06:38,800 --> 01:06:40,640 Speaker 1: I need you to go up there, boom because I 1327 01:06:40,680 --> 01:06:43,400 Speaker 1: had never done it. It's just need one team to 1328 01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:46,280 Speaker 1: do something. And I was gonna make sure that he 1329 01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:51,120 Speaker 1: got done and he had a successful event. But that's 1330 01:06:51,160 --> 01:06:53,640 Speaker 1: why I signed up for the order of the Track. 1331 01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:56,320 Speaker 1: I was like, that was my weakness, right, that was 1332 01:06:56,360 --> 01:06:59,720 Speaker 1: one of the things that you know in the stripe, right, 1333 01:06:59,760 --> 01:07:04,400 Speaker 1: your stript, your weaknesses, your opportunities, your threats. My weakness 1334 01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:08,240 Speaker 1: was that I never really organized anything like that. You know, 1335 01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:10,360 Speaker 1: got some people from the hood to go Martch on 1336 01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:13,560 Speaker 1: the precinct before, like, we're going there to the precinct. Man, 1337 01:07:13,760 --> 01:07:17,680 Speaker 1: they bought they bought brother. That was different than trying 1338 01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:23,360 Speaker 1: to an actual event. So I learned. I mean, I 1339 01:07:23,480 --> 01:07:25,640 Speaker 1: learned so much. I mean, there's so much stuff that 1340 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:28,800 Speaker 1: I can say about it, but I just want the 1341 01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:33,840 Speaker 1: family to know that this was this was a very important, 1342 01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:40,919 Speaker 1: non partisan political event. I'm able to take something and 1343 01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:45,000 Speaker 1: disseminated two those that may come into our organization and 1344 01:07:45,120 --> 01:07:49,280 Speaker 1: United Sons and Daughters of Freeman and help with the 1345 01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:54,120 Speaker 1: political education that's basically needed and moving forward. I had 1346 01:07:54,120 --> 01:07:56,200 Speaker 1: people that were saying to me, damn, you know, I 1347 01:07:56,240 --> 01:07:59,280 Speaker 1: wish whether Marsin was here as well. I was like, yeah, 1348 01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:03,360 Speaker 1: this this is definitely because we uh, we're the wrong 1349 01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:06,880 Speaker 1: people that are in politics. One of my brothers that 1350 01:08:06,880 --> 01:08:09,480 Speaker 1: that that was on our team, he was an elected 1351 01:08:09,520 --> 01:08:12,840 Speaker 1: official out of Illinois, so you know, he basically got 1352 01:08:12,840 --> 01:08:16,599 Speaker 1: this same down pack. But I learned so much more 1353 01:08:17,120 --> 01:08:20,559 Speaker 1: from the training. So let's just say I had six 1354 01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:24,320 Speaker 1: things right. I was missing for things that I didn't 1355 01:08:24,360 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 1: really know that I was listening until I went, until 1356 01:08:28,960 --> 01:08:31,599 Speaker 1: I attended the train, and I was able to get 1357 01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:35,880 Speaker 1: those four more things to make what I'm trying or 1358 01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:39,320 Speaker 1: attempting to do politically a little more complete. And I 1359 01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:41,360 Speaker 1: just want to summing up with that. And one more thing. 1360 01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:46,400 Speaker 1: You spoke about somebody saying something about the UH in 1361 01:08:46,439 --> 01:08:49,599 Speaker 1: their critique, Why didn't you Why didn't you speak about 1362 01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:52,800 Speaker 1: pooling resources? And although that you said someone got up 1363 01:08:52,840 --> 01:08:57,120 Speaker 1: in school about pooling resources, this Blue Camp was about 1364 01:08:57,400 --> 01:09:06,240 Speaker 1: learning how to be a candidate, opportunity, and about anything 1365 01:09:06,439 --> 01:09:09,519 Speaker 1: other people blooded to be about it. And that's another 1366 01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:13,479 Speaker 1: part of our problem with that way detracting or trying 1367 01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:16,479 Speaker 1: to find a way to distract from mission so that 1368 01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:21,400 Speaker 1: we can promote our own and guess what guess what 1369 01:09:21,520 --> 01:09:25,519 Speaker 1: not he but guess what, yeah, and guess what if 1370 01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:28,240 Speaker 1: they if you if you believe, like if there was 1371 01:09:28,280 --> 01:09:30,800 Speaker 1: somebody there, like a brother said on the testimony we 1372 01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:33,200 Speaker 1: talked about he was talking about he was networking on 1373 01:09:33,240 --> 01:09:36,400 Speaker 1: people about pulling his economic resources together. This training was 1374 01:09:36,439 --> 01:09:39,400 Speaker 1: actually teaching you how to do that. So whatever your 1375 01:09:39,640 --> 01:09:43,840 Speaker 1: issue was, it was an insert the Blakee thing everybody 1376 01:09:43,880 --> 01:09:46,040 Speaker 1: always wanted. Why y'all didn't talk about reparation. I don't 1377 01:09:46,040 --> 01:09:49,200 Speaker 1: be talk about reparation at the Revolt summit. I talked 1378 01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:52,479 Speaker 1: about many different things. This was about whatever you're into, 1379 01:09:52,920 --> 01:09:57,880 Speaker 1: whether it be reparations, economic development, mass incarceration. Everybody don't 1380 01:09:57,920 --> 01:10:00,679 Speaker 1: push the same thing at the same time all the time. 1381 01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:04,240 Speaker 1: Everybody in politics is driven the politics for a different 1382 01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:07,080 Speaker 1: motivating factor is their number one thing or the second thing. 1383 01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:09,519 Speaker 1: So if you were about that's why I told her brother, 1384 01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:11,360 Speaker 1: let's go live. Let's talk live. I don't like this 1385 01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:14,320 Speaker 1: type and ship onto it. Let's talk live. Because if if, if, 1386 01:10:14,360 --> 01:10:16,000 Speaker 1: if somebody said, you know what, I want to focus 1387 01:10:16,040 --> 01:10:19,519 Speaker 1: on economic development, then this class, this training gave you 1388 01:10:19,600 --> 01:10:23,080 Speaker 1: five cord four curriculum to be able to do that. 1389 01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:25,760 Speaker 1: You just simply need to insert the blank. And that's 1390 01:10:25,800 --> 01:10:28,439 Speaker 1: what people have a hard time understand because they're single 1391 01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:31,280 Speaker 1: issue topics and that's their one thing. And you do 1392 01:10:31,400 --> 01:10:33,679 Speaker 1: need to push you push, push, push, push your ass off. 1393 01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:40,160 Speaker 1: But understand the difference between a training and an activists 1394 01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:43,479 Speaker 1: on a platform telling you what needs to happen versus 1395 01:10:43,479 --> 01:10:46,280 Speaker 1: a training. This was a training telling you how to 1396 01:10:46,439 --> 01:10:50,280 Speaker 1: do whatever you believe needs to happen through either being 1397 01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:55,080 Speaker 1: a candidate or an operative or an organizer. And so 1398 01:10:55,120 --> 01:10:57,639 Speaker 1: you're talking about the sister that you know, just some 1399 01:10:57,680 --> 01:11:00,559 Speaker 1: people just have a hard time grasp the fact that 1400 01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:03,280 Speaker 1: it really is just about you. And so she began 1401 01:11:03,360 --> 01:11:06,639 Speaker 1: her feedback about should we be separated as people are 1402 01:11:06,680 --> 01:11:08,599 Speaker 1: all together, and I had to stop that. I'm glad 1403 01:11:08,640 --> 01:11:10,600 Speaker 1: I was in the training at that particular time to 1404 01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:13,960 Speaker 1: stop that, because this was not about what we need 1405 01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:16,080 Speaker 1: to be doing and how we need to be y'all 1406 01:11:16,080 --> 01:11:18,599 Speaker 1: do that all the time on Twitter. This was about 1407 01:11:18,640 --> 01:11:21,160 Speaker 1: actually doing what you say that you need to be doing. 1408 01:11:21,439 --> 01:11:23,599 Speaker 1: So thank you for naming that and and and pointing 1409 01:11:23,640 --> 01:11:26,960 Speaker 1: that out. I'm gonna take Marcellus. I'm keeping y'all speakers 1410 01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:28,920 Speaker 1: on if y'all feel y'all need to chime back in, 1411 01:11:28,960 --> 01:11:31,040 Speaker 1: particularly to the people that were there. But let me 1412 01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:33,679 Speaker 1: bring up the number one line pushing the bill to y'all. 1413 01:11:33,800 --> 01:11:36,680 Speaker 1: March stellis in the building. He went from Instagram and 1414 01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:38,920 Speaker 1: topped on over here on Twitter to be able to 1415 01:11:38,960 --> 01:11:47,760 Speaker 1: shine men. I can hear you, okay. So I just 1416 01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:50,160 Speaker 1: want to say again thank you for for having that, 1417 01:11:50,200 --> 01:11:53,600 Speaker 1: because you really didn't have to do that. I'm a 1418 01:11:53,960 --> 01:12:01,280 Speaker 1: mind pretty quick. Um, I really did a lot of stuff. 1419 01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:05,080 Speaker 1: I kinda knew because our teen in your virtual uh 1420 01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:09,800 Speaker 1: classes as well. Um. But also I was in there 1421 01:12:10,120 --> 01:12:15,160 Speaker 1: looking for my tribe as well.

This that I didn't sit 1470 01:14:45,200 --> 01:14:47,679 Speaker 1: down at all, uh, and I got the Apple Watch 1471 01:14:48,040 --> 01:14:50,000 Speaker 1: calories to prove it. On that day, I did a 1472 01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:52,200 Speaker 1: whole lot of walking because I want to make sure 1473 01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:54,320 Speaker 1: one I was coming in there to make sure everybody 1474 01:14:54,360 --> 01:14:57,000 Speaker 1: was on track. And I didn't have no counter protel 1475 01:14:57,320 --> 01:14:59,439 Speaker 1: trying to throw it off too. I was making sure 1476 01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:02,680 Speaker 1: my training us. I was looking at them because I 1477 01:15:02,680 --> 01:15:04,559 Speaker 1: don't want to depend on y'all to snitch on them. 1478 01:15:04,600 --> 01:15:07,400 Speaker 1: So I was watching them, and three, I was making 1479 01:15:07,400 --> 01:15:09,840 Speaker 1: sure that you got a little bit of me, or 1480 01:15:10,080 --> 01:15:12,280 Speaker 1: probably more than enough for me. So I just gave 1481 01:15:12,320 --> 01:15:14,360 Speaker 1: you all the strategy while I was walking up and 1482 01:15:14,479 --> 01:15:17,160 Speaker 1: all up and through them classes, because I don't trust nobody, 1483 01:15:17,200 --> 01:15:19,000 Speaker 1: even on might, even sweet little Christie.

Look like it's HBCU. You don't know none 1510 01:16:17,560 --> 01:16:19,200 Speaker 1: about me home and shout out to es Bon right 1511 01:16:19,240 --> 01:16:22,080 Speaker 1: now Instagram from forties cript, who's listening.

I talked to 1514 01:16:27,720 --> 01:16:29,559 Speaker 1: him all the time about how he's trying to get 1515 01:16:29,560 --> 01:16:31,360 Speaker 1: people out of game violence. He's trying to move people 1516 01:16:31,360 --> 01:16:33,360 Speaker 1: in positive direction. Him and I talk all the time. 1517 01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:35,280 Speaker 1: He's like, man, people ain't they don't want to hear 1518 01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:36,920 Speaker 1: the positive. I don't get the clicks because they don't 1519 01:16:36,960 --> 01:16:40,480 Speaker 1: want to positive. I encourage him from crips and bloods 1520 01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:44,440 Speaker 1: all the way down to the juicy geniuses, to the beloved, 1521 01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:47,880 Speaker 1: the lyn this beloved, peace and blessings all the way 1522 01:16:47,920 --> 01:16:50,080 Speaker 1: to whoop and what up. Cause so you don't know 1523 01:16:50,160 --> 01:16:52,640 Speaker 1: nothing about me, but you will find out when you 1524 01:16:52,680 --> 01:16:54,160 Speaker 1: get the plan with me, because that's all I do 1525 01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:56,400 Speaker 1: is talk and shut down. So anyway, I just had 1526 01:16:56,479 --> 01:16:57,880 Speaker 1: to say that right quick, just so we had a 1527 01:16:57,880 --> 01:16:59,920 Speaker 1: little bit of clarity on who you sitting up the plan. 1528 01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:01,240 Speaker 1: We all better go play with the rest of them 1529 01:17:01,240 --> 01:17:04,479 Speaker 1: on MSNBC because I'm down with it, down with dealing 1530 01:17:04,520 --> 01:17:07,320 Speaker 1: and dealing with you at any time, any place, live 1531 01:17:07,479 --> 01:17:10,479 Speaker 1: off the dome. So that's why this, this, uh, this 1532 01:17:10,479 --> 01:17:12,800 Speaker 1: this particular space was important so we could get it 1533 01:17:12,840 --> 01:17:16,000 Speaker 1: out here on the record and Atlanta Part two the 1534 01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:18,240 Speaker 1: next one. And I'm telling you this now, I'm only 1535 01:17:18,280 --> 01:17:21,639 Speaker 1: doing fifty to seventy five people. At most um they 1536 01:17:21,640 --> 01:17:23,400 Speaker 1: will be there will be at a place like a 1537 01:17:23,439 --> 01:17:26,760 Speaker 1: library that already has power point presentation. You know, we 1538 01:17:26,840 --> 01:17:28,679 Speaker 1: had to literally build that room. We had to bring 1539 01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:30,559 Speaker 1: the power in, we had to bring the screens in. 1540 01:17:31,080 --> 01:17:33,160 Speaker 1: If you've ever worked with Convention SA today Nickel and Dime, 1541 01:17:33,200 --> 01:17:35,400 Speaker 1: your death. Oh you want a power cord, that's another cast. 1542 01:17:35,520 --> 01:17:36,920 Speaker 1: Or you want a podium, that's another casts. Or you 1543 01:17:36,960 --> 01:17:38,960 Speaker 1: want to dask that's another cost. Oh you need a pin, 1544 01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:42,400 Speaker 1: that's another cost. I mean literally, y'all. So the next 1545 01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:43,920 Speaker 1: one that I'm doing, I'm gonna try touch as many 1546 01:17:43,920 --> 01:17:46,640 Speaker 1: states as I possibly can. It won't be all my 1547 01:17:46,680 --> 01:17:49,479 Speaker 1: trainers with me, because again, that's a cost. And let 1548 01:17:49,479 --> 01:17:52,320 Speaker 1: me put that after all these trainers were paid. Um. 1549 01:17:52,360 --> 01:17:54,200 Speaker 1: I think that's important to say because somebody at the 1550 01:17:54,240 --> 01:17:56,000 Speaker 1: end said, oh man, I'm so great for y'all. Did 1551 01:17:56,080 --> 01:17:58,080 Speaker 1: what y'all did, and y'all probably did it for free. 1552 01:17:58,360 --> 01:18:01,280 Speaker 1: Uh somebody has take paid not to put their business street, 1553 01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:03,759 Speaker 1: but I'm putting their business street. Not only were they paid, 1554 01:18:03,800 --> 01:18:06,920 Speaker 1: they also were flown up and the rooms and all 1555 01:18:06,960 --> 01:18:10,040 Speaker 1: that was taken care of. Y'all. Gotta get out this mindset. Uh. 1556 01:18:10,320 --> 01:18:12,640 Speaker 1: People shouldn't be paid for what they do. They were 1557 01:18:12,680 --> 01:18:15,240 Speaker 1: paid and guess what. Guess what the strategy was behind that. Jay, 1558 01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:17,559 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give give y'all some game. I don't want 1559 01:18:17,600 --> 01:18:20,120 Speaker 1: nobody's thinking I owe them nothing, So let's say that. 1560 01:18:20,240 --> 01:18:21,720 Speaker 1: Let me say it one more time in case they didn't. 1561 01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:23,960 Speaker 1: Here Chris is listening. We don't want Christie thinking she 1562 01:18:24,000 --> 01:18:26,000 Speaker 1: owed me owe me. I don't owe you nothing. I 1563 01:18:26,080 --> 01:18:27,760 Speaker 1: have to be in a position to be able to 1564 01:18:27,760 --> 01:18:30,320 Speaker 1: tell people you don't like how I move, keep it moving. 1565 01:18:30,560 --> 01:18:32,760 Speaker 1: So I didn't ask Hell for no donation. I had 1566 01:18:32,800 --> 01:18:34,479 Speaker 1: asked another free. Now they may have said, damn, I 1567 01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:37,280 Speaker 1: should have been paid more. Then that could be an argument. 1568 01:18:37,439 --> 01:18:40,280 Speaker 1: But the damn show was paid. And for those who asked, well, 1569 01:18:40,320 --> 01:18:42,559 Speaker 1: how did you get the money, don't worry about it. 1570 01:18:42,720 --> 01:18:46,000 Speaker 1: If I had to strip a magic City on the weekends, 1571 01:18:46,240 --> 01:18:48,559 Speaker 1: all you need to know is you got in the 1572 01:18:48,600 --> 01:18:51,439 Speaker 1: class for free, and then nobody pushed no agenda on you. 1573 01:18:51,640 --> 01:18:53,600 Speaker 1: So let that be enough. So if I had to 1574 01:18:53,640 --> 01:18:57,160 Speaker 1: sell a weed and strip on Sundays, or do whatever 1575 01:18:57,160 --> 01:18:59,000 Speaker 1: it took to get you in the room, that's all 1576 01:18:59,040 --> 01:19:00,840 Speaker 1: you need to wear about thee. If I tell y'all 1577 01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:02,880 Speaker 1: what such and such paid for it, then y'all be 1578 01:19:02,960 --> 01:19:04,880 Speaker 1: running with that y'all be lying about that on Twitter 1579 01:19:04,920 --> 01:19:06,920 Speaker 1: when you know such and such paid for and it 1580 01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:09,240 Speaker 1: really was an agenda. I know how you pee. THEP 1581 01:19:09,320 --> 01:19:12,080 Speaker 1: index is moving this Twitter space, So just just go 1582 01:19:12,120 --> 01:19:14,040 Speaker 1: ahead and tell people I had to strip on the weekends. 1583 01:19:14,320 --> 01:19:17,280 Speaker 1: On the weekends, I was at Magic City getting the 1584 01:19:17,320 --> 01:19:19,920 Speaker 1: money to get this together, so that y'all can run 1585 01:19:19,960 --> 01:19:22,559 Speaker 1: with that, and then y'all can take that that talking 1586 01:19:22,600 --> 01:19:25,200 Speaker 1: point and say, look at them. They always working in politics. 1587 01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:27,439 Speaker 1: I know how y'all do. It's so it's so easy 1588 01:19:27,479 --> 01:19:29,680 Speaker 1: to do. So just just no idea that I was 1589 01:19:29,720 --> 01:19:32,080 Speaker 1: moving ounces. I moved down to make this happen. So 1590 01:19:32,160 --> 01:19:33,439 Speaker 1: let that be there. Y'all run with that. I'm gonna 1591 01:19:33,680 --> 01:19:35,960 Speaker 1: gonna wrong with that and make that lie up. But 1592 01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:38,080 Speaker 1: the bottom line is you was in there for free 1593 01:19:38,080 --> 01:19:40,080 Speaker 1: and then nobody asked you for a damn thing, and 1594 01:19:40,120 --> 01:19:41,640 Speaker 1: I like it that way. It's nothing wrong with being 1595 01:19:41,640 --> 01:19:44,360 Speaker 1: a nonprofit organization, but I am a for profit organization. 1596 01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:46,320 Speaker 1: Tells them figure on dot com.

Some of it 1610 01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:15,519 Speaker 1: is petty, some of it is we really need it, 1611 01:20:15,680 --> 01:20:16,960 Speaker 1: and some of it is I want to be able 1612 01:20:17,000 --> 01:20:19,439 Speaker 1: to show these leaders that this can be done. You 1613 01:20:19,479 --> 01:20:22,120 Speaker 1: can't just keep talking about what didn't do it? Do it? 1614 01:20:22,160 --> 01:20:23,799 Speaker 1: Do it? You gotta be and say no, we showed 1615 01:20:23,800 --> 01:20:25,599 Speaker 1: it can be done. So why y'all not doing it? 1616 01:20:26,040 --> 01:20:28,720 Speaker 1: Why are they not doing it? The answer is not 1617 01:20:28,880 --> 01:20:31,120 Speaker 1: hem they don't want to do it. Like, let's put 1618 01:20:31,120 --> 01:20:33,479 Speaker 1: the ship on app this so everybody can just grasp this. 1619 01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:35,920 Speaker 1: Somebody said, oh, would you be willing? Somebody asked me yesterday, 1620 01:20:35,960 --> 01:20:37,720 Speaker 1: would you teach the d n C. Why I'm to 1621 01:20:37,760 --> 01:20:40,320 Speaker 1: teach the DNC y'all time is up.

So now you can tell 1624 01:20:46,320 --> 01:20:48,559 Speaker 1: them no, no, no, we actually did it. Because I 1625 01:20:48,600 --> 01:20:50,240 Speaker 1: used to tell people I did this in two thousand 1626 01:20:50,280 --> 01:20:52,479 Speaker 1: and eight where I brought three d volunteers, but that 1627 01:20:52,560 --> 01:20:54,960 Speaker 1: was too long ago. I needed a recent receipt to 1628 01:20:55,080 --> 01:20:58,040 Speaker 1: drop on your ass to say no, it can be done. 1629 01:20:58,439 --> 01:21:01,800 Speaker 1: We just did it, so why can't you do it? 1630 01:21:02,120 --> 01:21:05,320 Speaker 1: The answer is they don't want to do it, so 1631 01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:07,920 Speaker 1: I'm not consulting nobody on the back end. None of 1632 01:21:07,960 --> 01:21:10,479 Speaker 1: these d n c s, a BCS one to three's, 1633 01:21:10,760 --> 01:21:12,960 Speaker 1: they can't get fifty people in the room at best. 1634 01:21:13,280 --> 01:21:15,880 Speaker 1: It's because they do not want to do it. Guys, 1635 01:21:16,280 --> 01:21:19,479 Speaker 1: we are no longer waiting. I'm not waiting. I got 1636 01:21:19,520 --> 01:21:21,880 Speaker 1: plenty of sky miles. I will come to your city. 1637 01:21:22,120 --> 01:21:24,400 Speaker 1: Get a library where we ain't got to pay nothing 1638 01:21:24,439 --> 01:21:27,080 Speaker 1: to be there, or maybe fifty dollars the best, get 1639 01:21:27,080 --> 01:21:28,720 Speaker 1: me fifty people in the room, because I'm not it's 1640 01:21:28,720 --> 01:21:31,960 Speaker 1: a big nobody to share ship on social media. That 1641 01:21:32,040 --> 01:21:34,760 Speaker 1: was frustrating as hell, staying on top of people to share. 1642 01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:37,200 Speaker 1: Then you got Marcella's who was willing to pulling up 1643 01:21:37,200 --> 01:21:39,800 Speaker 1: on folks house when people didn't share. Marcella said he 1644 01:21:39,800 --> 01:21:42,719 Speaker 1: didn't have enough. So I got worried about Marcella's running 1645 01:21:42,800 --> 01:21:45,920 Speaker 1: up on folks being folks up for not sharing it. 1646 01:21:46,000 --> 01:21:48,439 Speaker 1: So I'm trying to keep Marcella's out of jail. So 1647 01:21:48,520 --> 01:21:50,719 Speaker 1: in order to do that, we're just gonna do fifty 1648 01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:53,320 Speaker 1: people at a time at a library. I don't need 1649 01:21:53,360 --> 01:21:55,799 Speaker 1: no whole bunch of people.

And by two thousand twenty four, 1654 01:22:05,160 --> 01:22:08,559 Speaker 1: I will have touched two thousand twenty four people, and 1655 01:22:08,640 --> 01:22:10,960 Speaker 1: I will be bringing it up in their face when 1656 01:22:10,960 --> 01:22:13,559 Speaker 1: they run in two thousand twenty four to say, hey, 1657 01:22:13,640 --> 01:22:15,599 Speaker 1: you had more than enough opportunity to do this, because 1658 01:22:15,600 --> 01:22:17,040 Speaker 1: if I can do what you damn show can do it. 1659 01:22:17,200 --> 01:22:19,200 Speaker 1: So that's that's the bigger picture of the bigger strap. 1660 01:22:29,000 --> 01:22:32,040 Speaker 1: I want to say, uh, thank you for that.

So 1846 01:31:08,200 --> 01:31:10,759 Speaker 1: I very much involved the streets because it's a difference 1847 01:31:10,760 --> 01:31:12,720 Speaker 1: between the hood and the streets. That's why you pour 1848 01:31:12,800 --> 01:31:15,080 Speaker 1: Peter porndeck Is need to know. I'm from the streets. 1849 01:31:15,120 --> 01:31:17,320 Speaker 1: Big difference, Penny.

I went later to the operative track and 1928 01:34:47,360 --> 01:34:49,760 Speaker 1: Mett Michelle and I want to give Christie your shout out. 1929 01:34:49,920 --> 01:34:51,840 Speaker 1: And before I moved to that part, let me say, 1930 01:34:51,960 --> 01:34:54,920 Speaker 1: you know, you were talking just a minute ago about 1931 01:34:55,640 --> 01:34:59,800 Speaker 1: how this was not just a reparations issue and people, 1932 01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:03,000 Speaker 1: you know, this was a training for whatever anyone's issue was. 1933 01:35:03,040 --> 01:35:06,400 Speaker 1: So Christie did take the time to ask what people's 1934 01:35:06,960 --> 01:35:09,840 Speaker 1: issues were. And I think about fifty people answered, and 1935 01:35:09,880 --> 01:35:12,720 Speaker 1: all these fifty people had different things to say, and 1936 01:35:12,760 --> 01:35:15,040 Speaker 1: really none of them were reparations. It was it was 1937 01:35:15,080 --> 01:35:17,719 Speaker 1: amazing to me. Um, So I did take the time 1938 01:35:17,760 --> 01:35:21,719 Speaker 1: to go over to um the let me let me pause, 1939 01:35:21,800 --> 01:35:24,080 Speaker 1: Let me pause right there, because see what somebody to 1940 01:35:24,200 --> 01:35:27,000 Speaker 1: do is take that clip and we'll run with that. 1941 01:35:27,080 --> 01:35:29,160 Speaker 1: And I even told Christie that we we all family. 1942 01:35:29,280 --> 01:35:31,360 Speaker 1: And I told Christie she shouldn't ask all that, you 1943 01:35:31,400 --> 01:35:34,360 Speaker 1: know why, because what happens is they take what you 1944 01:35:34,479 --> 01:35:36,840 Speaker 1: just said and they'll say nobody in the room with 1945 01:35:36,880 --> 01:35:41,639 Speaker 1: supporting reparations. So let's be crystal clear that if somebody said, hey, 1946 01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:44,880 Speaker 1: I'm interested in mass incarceration, arm interested, it wasn't that 1947 01:35:44,920 --> 01:35:49,400 Speaker 1: nobody out of three people did not support reparations, including Christie, 1948 01:35:49,439 --> 01:35:52,599 Speaker 1: who literally pushes reparations, who was the trainer in Tulsa. 1949 01:35:52,920 --> 01:35:54,760 Speaker 1: So I have to put a pen in that. And 1950 01:35:54,800 --> 01:35:56,960 Speaker 1: I told Christie that, see again, I look at stuff 1951 01:35:56,960 --> 01:35:59,200 Speaker 1: from a crisis calm standpoint. So I'm glad you said 1952 01:35:59,240 --> 01:36:02,160 Speaker 1: that because see, if let somebody say an op will 1953 01:36:02,200 --> 01:36:05,639 Speaker 1: take that and say, see, do nobody talk about no reparation. 1954 01:36:05,800 --> 01:36:09,360 Speaker 1: So see I already think ahead of these point Peter pointdexters. 1955 01:36:09,400 --> 01:36:11,559 Speaker 1: So let's be clear. If you want to hear what 1956 01:36:11,640 --> 01:36:14,320 Speaker 1: I feel about reparations, bring your ass to the Rebulse 1957 01:36:14,400 --> 01:36:17,280 Speaker 1: summit on the twenty three. It will be televised and 1958 01:36:17,320 --> 01:36:19,640 Speaker 1: Trek and I will be on the reparations panel. So 1959 01:36:19,680 --> 01:36:22,479 Speaker 1: I gotta be very clear that Nahim was their supports 1960 01:36:22,479 --> 01:36:26,519 Speaker 1: reparations line and support reparation, juicy gene support reparation. See, 1961 01:36:26,600 --> 01:36:28,479 Speaker 1: I can't let them take that little clip and run 1962 01:36:28,560 --> 01:36:30,519 Speaker 1: with that. So I'm not I didn't want to interrupt you, 1963 01:36:30,520 --> 01:36:31,439 Speaker 1: but I had to put a pen and down. I 1964 01:36:31,479 --> 01:36:33,599 Speaker 1: told Crazy she shouldn't have done that, just into full 1965 01:36:33,640 --> 01:36:36,599 Speaker 1: transparency because when I say it's no agenda, they didn't 1966 01:36:36,640 --> 01:36:39,040 Speaker 1: need to say what the agenda was because people will 1967 01:36:39,080 --> 01:36:42,559 Speaker 1: take that and run with that. But Christie doesn't do 1968 01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:46,000 Speaker 1: crisis calm. I do. So I love Christie and I'm 1969 01:36:46,000 --> 01:36:48,200 Speaker 1: but I'm telling y'all, I don't have no secrets. I 1970 01:36:48,240 --> 01:36:50,559 Speaker 1: told you shouldn't have don't do that. When I say 1971 01:36:50,760 --> 01:36:52,679 Speaker 1: no agenda, I don't need to know what y'all issue 1972 01:36:52,760 --> 01:36:55,120 Speaker 1: was and wasn't important what your issue was I know 1973 01:36:55,200 --> 01:36:57,840 Speaker 1: how people flip ship, so I needed to put that 1974 01:36:57,920 --> 01:37:00,360 Speaker 1: in there because they will run with that, guys. So 1975 01:37:00,479 --> 01:37:02,280 Speaker 1: let's be sure. I want to say it one more time, 1976 01:37:02,640 --> 01:37:04,920 Speaker 1: because Marcelis is in here, Line is in here, and 1977 01:37:04,960 --> 01:37:08,839 Speaker 1: Naheim is in here, Juicy James in the Friday Jones 1978 01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:12,200 Speaker 1: is in here. We all support reparations. Let me say 1979 01:37:12,200 --> 01:37:15,280 Speaker 1: at one time, we all support reparations, and the trainer 1980 01:37:15,360 --> 01:37:18,760 Speaker 1: that as that not only supports reparations but pushes for 1981 01:37:18,840 --> 01:37:22,360 Speaker 1: reparations in Tulsa, Oklahoma. But that was a part that 1982 01:37:22,439 --> 01:37:26,360 Speaker 1: I should not have even been said preferably. I know 1983 01:37:26,439 --> 01:37:28,600 Speaker 1: she was trying to get you guys engaged, but I 1984 01:37:28,640 --> 01:37:30,479 Speaker 1: want you to see how people take ship and take 1985 01:37:30,520 --> 01:37:32,240 Speaker 1: a clip and wrung with it. So go ahead, Carl. 1986 01:37:32,240 --> 01:37:34,799 Speaker 1: I'm glad you made that point, all right, no problem, 1987 01:37:34,800 --> 01:37:37,120 Speaker 1: And I understand what you're saying. I still think it's 1988 01:37:37,160 --> 01:37:40,680 Speaker 1: powerful that she did that, because you know it was 1989 01:37:40,760 --> 01:37:44,639 Speaker 1: about people not having the same agenda. You were being 1990 01:37:44,680 --> 01:37:48,040 Speaker 1: non biased, and you you said that from the beginning, 1991 01:37:48,040 --> 01:37:50,479 Speaker 1: and I think it's just emphasized that and anyone that 1992 01:37:50,520 --> 01:37:53,360 Speaker 1: would take that information, which I agree, I agree with you. 1993 01:37:53,439 --> 01:37:55,559 Speaker 1: I trust what you're saying that people will run and 1994 01:37:55,640 --> 01:37:58,760 Speaker 1: take away with it how any way that they can. Um, 1995 01:37:59,240 --> 01:38:01,800 Speaker 1: they would just be to on a disservice um and 1996 01:38:01,880 --> 01:38:03,880 Speaker 1: really coming to look like an idiot to me because 1997 01:38:04,760 --> 01:38:06,880 Speaker 1: they don't care. No, that looks like an idiot. Girl. 1998 01:38:06,880 --> 01:38:09,760 Speaker 1: It's people who it's people that have agenda. Some of 1999 01:38:09,840 --> 01:38:12,000 Speaker 1: y'all need to understand just because somebody pushing the jet like, 2000 01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:14,719 Speaker 1: people got agendas and feel they can be the only 2001 01:38:14,760 --> 01:38:16,920 Speaker 1: person to talk about certain things. I get it all 2002 01:38:16,920 --> 01:38:18,960 Speaker 1: the time when people why you ain't talking about this, 2003 01:38:19,200 --> 01:38:20,680 Speaker 1: and then when you do talk about it, when you 2004 01:38:20,720 --> 01:38:22,720 Speaker 1: don't talk about it enough? Or why you don't this? 2005 01:38:22,800 --> 01:38:25,559 Speaker 1: And I mean so especially in this Twitter space. That's 2006 01:38:25,560 --> 01:38:27,800 Speaker 1: why I had to point that out. It's a lot 2007 01:38:27,840 --> 01:38:30,160 Speaker 1: of people that are they just want to cause confusion. 2008 01:38:30,360 --> 01:38:32,439 Speaker 1: That's it that there. The main thing is to cause 2009 01:38:32,439 --> 01:38:35,639 Speaker 1: confusion because they're so afraid that I'm gonna get something 2010 01:38:35,960 --> 01:38:39,400 Speaker 1: that's gonna benefit me personally or whatever it is. And 2011 01:38:39,439 --> 01:38:41,720 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you just gotta understand. Everybody don't have an 2012 01:38:41,720 --> 01:38:45,000 Speaker 1: agenda to hustle. But one if I wanted to hustle, 2013 01:38:45,040 --> 01:38:48,360 Speaker 1: I could just go to Magic City again, Magic City. 2014 01:38:48,400 --> 01:38:50,400 Speaker 1: I could go to Magic city if it was about hustle. 2015 01:38:50,800 --> 01:38:53,160 Speaker 1: I just really like training. I mean, that's just it. 2016 01:38:53,200 --> 01:38:55,519 Speaker 1: And I got receipts to provate, and I want to 2017 01:38:55,520 --> 01:38:58,600 Speaker 1: see people get into the game and do whatever it is. 2018 01:38:58,680 --> 01:39:01,400 Speaker 1: And let me be clear, there needs to be people 2019 01:39:01,479 --> 01:39:06,200 Speaker 1: in the space, including a reparation space, that can train 2020 01:39:06,320 --> 01:39:08,640 Speaker 1: people on how to actually do it. And I'm not 2021 01:39:08,680 --> 01:39:11,040 Speaker 1: saying that people are not talking about that. Y'all know 2022 01:39:11,080 --> 01:39:12,880 Speaker 1: I support to read, and I know a lot of 2023 01:39:12,880 --> 01:39:14,760 Speaker 1: people don't like that. Our support to read, people telling 2024 01:39:14,800 --> 01:39:16,439 Speaker 1: it all the time. White support to you shouldn't portray. 2025 01:39:16,560 --> 01:39:18,200 Speaker 1: Hey man, I don't have no problem with nobody in 2026 01:39:18,240 --> 01:39:20,320 Speaker 1: this movement, even though it's been people who have went 2027 01:39:20,439 --> 01:39:21,880 Speaker 1: back and forth. I ain't even gonna say the name, 2028 01:39:21,920 --> 01:39:23,519 Speaker 1: but then they're gonna say she was in there talking 2029 01:39:23,560 --> 01:39:25,839 Speaker 1: about you. Hey man, I ain't got time these kids. 2030 01:39:26,040 --> 01:39:27,920 Speaker 1: I don't have no problem with nobody that don't have 2031 01:39:27,920 --> 01:39:30,040 Speaker 1: a problem with me. I don't bother nobody, but I 2032 01:39:30,160 --> 01:39:32,400 Speaker 1: damn show ain't gonna be bothered. So when you come 2033 01:39:32,439 --> 01:39:34,760 Speaker 1: at me and clap at me, I'm going to clap back. 2034 01:39:35,120 --> 01:39:37,800 Speaker 1: I'm just as petty as anybody else. But I do 2035 01:39:37,920 --> 01:39:41,360 Speaker 1: think there is room for people to actually learn how 2036 01:39:41,400 --> 01:39:43,960 Speaker 1: to apply what it is that they want to push. 2037 01:39:43,960 --> 01:39:46,519 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that nobody's doing that, But I'm 2038 01:39:46,520 --> 01:39:48,640 Speaker 1: not here to take over no movement and be in 2039 01:39:48,760 --> 01:39:51,280 Speaker 1: charge of no movement. And who's gonna be the only 2040 01:39:51,320 --> 01:39:54,120 Speaker 1: one speaking about it. I'm the News of Today commentator. 2041 01:39:54,120 --> 01:39:55,840 Speaker 1: I can talk about any topic off the dome at 2042 01:39:55,920 --> 01:39:59,080 Speaker 1: any time, and I crushed whoever debates against me. Those 2043 01:39:59,120 --> 01:40:01,839 Speaker 1: are facts, So I'm not trying to compete with nobody 2044 01:40:01,880 --> 01:40:03,840 Speaker 1: on nothing. Who's gonna be the one with the most 2045 01:40:03,840 --> 01:40:06,040 Speaker 1: streams and the most likes and the I don't even 2046 01:40:06,040 --> 01:40:07,559 Speaker 1: think I have a couple of thousand people that follow 2047 01:40:07,600 --> 01:40:09,200 Speaker 1: me on my YouTube. You don't see me said, follow 2048 01:40:09,240 --> 01:40:11,599 Speaker 1: me my YouTube, follow me YouTube. I'm hey. I'm here 2049 01:40:11,640 --> 01:40:15,040 Speaker 1: to support whatever anybody's doing to push black people. I'm 2050 01:40:15,040 --> 01:40:17,200 Speaker 1: with that ship a hundred percent. Even if you don't 2051 01:40:17,280 --> 01:40:20,080 Speaker 1: rock with me, I support you. But I have to 2052 01:40:20,120 --> 01:40:23,080 Speaker 1: point those out because Carla, there are people that are 2053 01:40:23,120 --> 01:40:28,360 Speaker 1: just so intimidated by somebody, you know, coming into a 2054 01:40:28,400 --> 01:40:31,120 Speaker 1: space that they feel they rightfully owned. And it's a 2055 01:40:31,200 --> 01:40:34,120 Speaker 1: damn shame and that's why we don't get ahead faster. 2056 01:40:34,479 --> 01:40:36,400 Speaker 1: But I do believe we're going to get ahead. I 2057 01:40:36,439 --> 01:40:38,280 Speaker 1: just see people just need to find their tribeing and 2058 01:40:38,400 --> 01:40:43,240 Speaker 1: keep it moving. I agree. Okay, so you talked to 2059 01:40:43,360 --> 01:40:45,280 Speaker 1: and now he ain't talked about the gentleman that was 2060 01:40:45,320 --> 01:40:47,600 Speaker 1: saying something about want to to pull your money and 2061 01:40:47,640 --> 01:40:49,360 Speaker 1: all that. And I just want to say, I saw you, 2062 01:40:50,040 --> 01:40:54,840 Speaker 1: uh running his ass down. You gotta look five minute 2063 01:40:54,840 --> 01:40:57,000 Speaker 1: Twitter space up and put his name in the title 2064 01:40:57,040 --> 01:40:59,800 Speaker 1: like you wanted to deal with it, uh, or just 2065 01:41:00,040 --> 01:41:03,639 Speaker 1: room that he wasn't, you know, gonna put himself behind 2066 01:41:03,760 --> 01:41:08,360 Speaker 1: the worst he was saying. So, Um, I really had 2067 01:41:08,400 --> 01:41:10,280 Speaker 1: no idea I was going to where you know, I 2068 01:41:10,320 --> 01:41:12,880 Speaker 1: was able to move around watching you move around. I 2069 01:41:12,920 --> 01:41:16,400 Speaker 1: know this was kind of right after lunch. I talked 2070 01:41:16,439 --> 01:41:20,120 Speaker 1: to you about where the other um the operative space 2071 01:41:20,400 --> 01:41:25,519 Speaker 1: was and and the the candidate track. So I went 2072 01:41:25,560 --> 01:41:28,320 Speaker 1: over to the operative track with Schelle. I want to 2073 01:41:28,320 --> 01:41:32,080 Speaker 1: give her her flowers. Um, she was beyond ethical and 2074 01:41:32,120 --> 01:41:38,160 Speaker 1: her delivery very solid information as well and answering questions. 2075 01:41:38,479 --> 01:41:41,479 Speaker 1: And so I didn't think that I would buy with 2076 01:41:41,600 --> 01:41:44,479 Speaker 1: the operative track. But what I really liked was just 2077 01:41:44,520 --> 01:41:47,920 Speaker 1: how methodical it was you would have to be to 2078 01:41:48,040 --> 01:41:51,439 Speaker 1: be able to be an operative um and also just 2079 01:41:51,560 --> 01:41:54,639 Speaker 1: where you know, it seemed like everything and I didn't 2080 01:41:54,640 --> 01:41:59,120 Speaker 1: go and make it to the the candidate track, but 2081 01:41:59,560 --> 01:42:03,360 Speaker 1: from what idea see, it was a lot of us 2082 01:42:03,360 --> 01:42:07,000 Speaker 1: as people have to decide personally what it is that 2083 01:42:07,040 --> 01:42:09,920 Speaker 1: we want to do and what energy we have to 2084 01:42:09,960 --> 01:42:13,920 Speaker 1: bring to this movement. Um, there's a lot of personal reflection. 2085 01:42:14,080 --> 01:42:16,720 Speaker 1: Is is kind of what I took away from from 2086 01:42:16,760 --> 01:42:20,400 Speaker 1: all of this training. So um, she was very on point. 2087 01:42:20,479 --> 01:42:23,920 Speaker 1: All of that information really got me high. Uh, and 2088 01:42:23,960 --> 01:42:27,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I followed her on Instagram. I'm I really 2089 01:42:27,320 --> 01:42:29,439 Speaker 1: like the way that she moves. I appreciate that.

Um, if y'all go following 2096 01:42:42,960 --> 01:42:44,640 Speaker 1: these trainers and you don't like something they said in 2097 01:42:44,720 --> 01:42:47,080 Speaker 1: the past or even in the future, I'm not responsible 2098 01:42:47,120 --> 01:42:48,880 Speaker 1: for that. So let's put that on the record because 2099 01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:50,920 Speaker 1: I know I'm had to run that back somebody gonna 2100 01:42:50,920 --> 01:42:53,559 Speaker 1: go see what somebody saying say, Look, oh she had 2101 01:42:53,640 --> 01:42:56,120 Speaker 1: this trainer and this trainer really is a democrat, and 2102 01:42:56,160 --> 01:42:58,479 Speaker 1: they was there pushing an agenda. So let me put 2103 01:42:58,520 --> 01:43:01,479 Speaker 1: that ship right out there right now, whoever you go follow. 2104 01:43:01,560 --> 01:43:04,479 Speaker 1: I'm not responsible for Christy, Vanessa and Michelle, what they've 2105 01:43:04,520 --> 01:43:07,400 Speaker 1: done prior to or what they will do in the future. 2106 01:43:07,760 --> 01:43:09,519 Speaker 1: What I did tell them is they've been not coming 2107 01:43:09,560 --> 01:43:12,040 Speaker 1: here pushing not nan agenda because I will shut it 2108 01:43:12,080 --> 01:43:15,080 Speaker 1: down in the middle of the training in front of everybody. 2109 01:43:15,080 --> 01:43:16,960 Speaker 1: So as I go to the next caller, let me 2110 01:43:17,000 --> 01:43:19,800 Speaker 1: say that one more time. We were separated in three 2111 01:43:19,800 --> 01:43:22,880 Speaker 1: different rooms throughout the day. So just because nobody mentioned 2112 01:43:22,920 --> 01:43:25,759 Speaker 1: reparations at that particular moment when Christie asked the question, 2113 01:43:25,960 --> 01:43:28,719 Speaker 1: there were two other classrooms going on at the same time, 2114 01:43:28,760 --> 01:43:30,720 Speaker 1: and it was people that are that support reparations. I 2115 01:43:30,800 --> 01:43:33,880 Speaker 1: gotta say that, and the visionary, the founder me, I 2116 01:43:33,920 --> 01:43:36,759 Speaker 1: support reparations, and this was my ship. So I gotta 2117 01:43:36,800 --> 01:43:39,120 Speaker 1: make sure that that is so clear. Because this sorter 2118 01:43:39,200 --> 01:43:41,680 Speaker 1: space is different, y'all. These trolls come up and all 2119 01:43:41,800 --> 01:43:43,680 Speaker 1: make up all types of ship as they go. So 2120 01:43:43,720 --> 01:43:46,320 Speaker 1: I had to reiterate that just one more time. UM, 2121 01:43:46,400 --> 01:43:49,360 Speaker 1: let's take another caller.

So that, um, you understood 2131 01:44:20,920 --> 01:44:22,720 Speaker 1: that if people had to go to work or if 2132 01:44:22,760 --> 01:44:25,360 Speaker 1: they had something else going on throughout the day, that 2133 01:44:25,439 --> 01:44:28,000 Speaker 1: they would take that time and still go and get 2134 01:44:28,040 --> 01:44:30,960 Speaker 1: what bit of information that they could. Yeah, because sometimes 2135 01:44:31,000 --> 01:44:33,320 Speaker 1: you gotta get it. Sometimes you gotta get it in pieces. 2136 01:44:33,320 --> 01:44:35,040 Speaker 1: It took me over a decade to get my degree. 2137 01:44:35,360 --> 01:44:38,960 Speaker 1: Three hours one time, three hours of next six. I 2138 01:44:39,080 --> 01:44:40,960 Speaker 1: gotta get out, I gotta do something, my baby, gotta 2139 01:44:41,000 --> 01:44:43,120 Speaker 1: start my business, stop my business, stay out of school 2140 01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:45,240 Speaker 1: for two years, come back, get another three hours, get 2141 01:44:45,280 --> 01:44:48,320 Speaker 1: another twelve hours. Y'all, don't be discovered. Sometimes you gotta 2142 01:44:48,320 --> 01:44:51,160 Speaker 1: get the information bit by bit until it all comes together. 2143 01:44:51,200 --> 01:44:53,600 Speaker 1: The point is get that information that you can. And 2144 01:44:53,600 --> 01:44:55,280 Speaker 1: I'm glad that y'all keep saying over and over how 2145 01:44:55,360 --> 01:44:59,240 Speaker 1: y'all switch classes, because I made that point at the 2146 01:44:59,360 --> 01:45:01,800 Speaker 1: end of the at the end of the training that 2147 01:45:02,000 --> 01:45:04,360 Speaker 1: um were not at the end after lunch, that I 2148 01:45:04,400 --> 01:45:06,600 Speaker 1: wanted you guys to you know, switch and go to 2149 01:45:06,640 --> 01:45:09,120 Speaker 1: other classrooms. And I'm glad y'all took me up on 2150 01:45:09,160 --> 01:45:11,400 Speaker 1: that offer because Michelle was like, after lunch, he said, 2151 01:45:11,400 --> 01:45:13,280 Speaker 1: what happened because my class got really full? That was 2152 01:45:13,320 --> 01:45:15,280 Speaker 1: the operative track. I said, yeah, because I wanted people 2153 01:45:15,320 --> 01:45:17,680 Speaker 1: to go test something else out, you know, to get 2154 01:45:17,960 --> 01:45:20,559 Speaker 1: a different you know, a different vibe. And it seems like, 2155 01:45:20,560 --> 01:45:22,679 Speaker 1: based on your feedback this morning that that was really 2156 01:45:22,680 --> 01:45:25,040 Speaker 1: really helpful because a lot of people didn't understand they 2157 01:45:25,040 --> 01:45:26,800 Speaker 1: probably should have been in the operative argue, maybe they 2158 01:45:26,800 --> 01:45:29,559 Speaker 1: should have been an organizer. So not being in one 2159 01:45:29,600 --> 01:45:32,280 Speaker 1: class all day I think was really helpful. And that's 2160 01:45:32,280 --> 01:45:34,960 Speaker 1: why everybody was teaching the same thing at the same time, 2161 01:45:35,360 --> 01:45:37,880 Speaker 1: because I wanted you to get the same content and 2162 01:45:37,920 --> 01:45:41,600 Speaker 1: see it from a different lens, and the operative and 2163 01:45:41,680 --> 01:45:44,519 Speaker 1: candidate they were like two sessions behind because Kiss Chrissy 2164 01:45:44,600 --> 01:45:47,280 Speaker 1: was moving really fast, so it gave people a chance 2165 01:45:47,320 --> 01:45:49,799 Speaker 1: to go listen to the same session from a different lens. 2166 01:45:50,200 --> 01:45:52,760 Speaker 1: And it sounds like that was really helpful, uh to 2167 01:45:52,840 --> 01:45:55,080 Speaker 1: you guys.

Yes, 2263 01:50:24,880 --> 01:50:27,639 Speaker 1: I was at the training um, and I just wanted 2264 01:50:27,680 --> 01:50:30,679 Speaker 1: to say thank you so much. Um. That was beyond 2265 01:50:30,800 --> 01:50:34,800 Speaker 1: my expectation. It was extremely organized. Its functioning like a 2266 01:50:34,800 --> 01:50:38,559 Speaker 1: well oiled machine. I mean the timing everything was just 2267 01:50:38,920 --> 01:50:41,840 Speaker 1: it was like an orchestra, just every the timing was 2268 01:50:41,920 --> 01:50:45,080 Speaker 1: just perfect. Um. But I do want to confirm that, yes, 2269 01:50:45,439 --> 01:50:49,240 Speaker 1: the training was completely full. Um. People were early. There 2270 01:50:49,320 --> 01:50:51,840 Speaker 1: was plenty of food, but there was plenty of good food. 2271 01:50:53,880 --> 01:50:56,080 Speaker 1: You know, somebody's gonna go back and complain that this 2272 01:50:56,200 --> 01:50:57,880 Speaker 1: wasn't good or that wasn't good, but it was. It 2273 01:50:57,960 --> 01:51:01,680 Speaker 1: was delicious. And as a matter of I remember you 2274 01:51:01,760 --> 01:51:03,840 Speaker 1: telling us to go ahead and take some food home 2275 01:51:04,960 --> 01:51:07,600 Speaker 1: because it was so much of it. Um. But I 2276 01:51:07,640 --> 01:51:09,120 Speaker 1: wrote down a couple of notes because I just want 2277 01:51:09,120 --> 01:51:10,920 Speaker 1: to you know, be on you know, on point and 2278 01:51:11,520 --> 01:51:14,160 Speaker 1: uh touch all the points that I wanted to share 2279 01:51:14,200 --> 01:51:19,120 Speaker 1: with everybody. Um. The training was extremely engagement engaging. Uh. 2280 01:51:19,520 --> 01:51:21,640 Speaker 1: The time was twelve hours, but it didn't feel like 2281 01:51:21,720 --> 01:51:23,840 Speaker 1: that to me. For me, it felt like it flew 2282 01:51:23,880 --> 01:51:25,800 Speaker 1: because it was just everything was just back to back 2283 01:51:26,120 --> 01:51:29,439 Speaker 1: and on point. Um. It's one thing to know, you 2284 01:51:29,479 --> 01:51:32,200 Speaker 1: know what you know, but when it comes to your facilitators, 2285 01:51:32,240 --> 01:51:36,000 Speaker 1: they also um, you know, brought a level of credibility 2286 01:51:36,040 --> 01:51:39,720 Speaker 1: and experience that just you just can't compete with that. 2287 01:51:39,840 --> 01:51:42,799 Speaker 1: So you know, people can read off of power points, 2288 01:51:42,920 --> 01:51:46,360 Speaker 1: they can uh, you know, regurge tate information. But the 2289 01:51:46,400 --> 01:51:49,439 Speaker 1: people that that you had training us were experienced in 2290 01:51:49,479 --> 01:51:53,320 Speaker 1: the field. Um. But the one thing that stood out 2291 01:51:53,360 --> 01:51:57,040 Speaker 1: with me was the calling versus career. Um I really 2292 01:51:57,080 --> 01:51:59,960 Speaker 1: you touched on that and that kind of resonated with 2293 01:52:00,160 --> 01:52:03,120 Speaker 1: me because of calling is that thing that you wake 2294 01:52:03,240 --> 01:52:05,639 Speaker 1: up every morning or you go to bed, and this 2295 01:52:05,720 --> 01:52:07,640 Speaker 1: is all you think about. You know, you you have 2296 01:52:07,800 --> 01:52:10,280 Speaker 1: to get active. And for me coming to your training, 2297 01:52:10,280 --> 01:52:12,639 Speaker 1: I had just gotten over COVID like a week before, 2298 01:52:13,400 --> 01:52:15,360 Speaker 1: um so, and I had to drive from out of 2299 01:52:15,400 --> 01:52:17,680 Speaker 1: state to get there. But where did you come from? 2300 01:52:17,760 --> 01:52:20,439 Speaker 1: Where did you come from? Darlin? Um? I came from 2301 01:52:20,439 --> 01:52:23,040 Speaker 1: Florida and from Louisiana, but I live in Florida now. 2302 01:52:23,800 --> 01:52:27,920 Speaker 1: So I didn't get there until about eleven thirty that night. 2303 01:52:28,160 --> 01:52:31,000 Speaker 1: The night before I had to get to get a 2304 01:52:31,000 --> 01:52:33,360 Speaker 1: couple of hours of sleep and then just head over there. 2305 01:52:34,240 --> 01:52:37,360 Speaker 1: But yes, it was raining too. Look I got all 2306 01:52:37,400 --> 01:52:40,479 Speaker 1: pretty glad arm my hair by time I left that training. 2307 01:52:40,520 --> 01:52:44,799 Speaker 1: It was I had a little puff going on. But anyway, 2308 01:52:45,160 --> 01:52:47,840 Speaker 1: I wanted to thank you. Um, it was beautiful. I 2309 01:52:47,880 --> 01:52:50,160 Speaker 1: did attend to after the party, but briefly because I 2310 01:52:50,160 --> 01:52:52,280 Speaker 1: showed up a little bit late, got me some food 2311 01:52:52,320 --> 01:52:54,120 Speaker 1: and I had to get back to go get some sleep. 2312 01:52:54,160 --> 01:52:57,800 Speaker 1: But thank you and everybody, please, um, if you have 2313 01:52:58,000 --> 01:53:02,840 Speaker 1: any doubt of out the content and the just the 2314 01:53:02,920 --> 01:53:06,400 Speaker 1: delivery what it is that Tuglin has to to offer us, 2315 01:53:06,920 --> 01:53:09,880 Speaker 1: it would be a fool to pass this up, but 2316 01:53:10,080 --> 01:53:12,800 Speaker 1: thank you for your let me speak no thank you 2317 01:53:12,880 --> 01:53:15,120 Speaker 1: so that I appreciate you saying that. And if they 2318 01:53:15,120 --> 01:53:16,599 Speaker 1: a fool and want to pass it up, we want 2319 01:53:16,600 --> 01:53:18,559 Speaker 1: to keep their food lass right where they is because 2320 01:53:18,840 --> 01:53:21,360 Speaker 1: we we only want the people that are this serious 2321 01:53:21,439 --> 01:53:25,120 Speaker 1: about this. And I hope you guys saw that when 2322 01:53:25,160 --> 01:53:27,200 Speaker 1: you get the right people in the room, it really 2323 01:53:27,240 --> 01:53:29,800 Speaker 1: does make a difference we we get so you know, 2324 01:53:29,840 --> 01:53:32,000 Speaker 1: this ain't church where everybody you know, we all come 2325 01:53:32,040 --> 01:53:34,360 Speaker 1: where everybody welcome, come on it. No, we want the 2326 01:53:34,439 --> 01:53:36,920 Speaker 1: right PE's nothing wrong with that. But I just believe 2327 01:53:36,920 --> 01:53:39,040 Speaker 1: if we get the right people in the room, and 2328 01:53:39,080 --> 01:53:40,600 Speaker 1: you'll be okay with saying you know what this is 2329 01:53:40,680 --> 01:53:42,640 Speaker 1: just ain't for you.

I don't want 2332 01:53:46,560 --> 01:53:48,640 Speaker 1: no followers un following me. Don't don't worry, but you 2333 01:53:48,680 --> 01:53:50,680 Speaker 1: don't like what I say? Keeping moving. I do that 2334 01:53:50,760 --> 01:53:52,400 Speaker 1: to be an example to you, to show that it's 2335 01:53:52,439 --> 01:53:54,840 Speaker 1: okay if Marcella is. One of the reasons I know 2336 01:53:54,920 --> 01:53:57,080 Speaker 1: y'all be saying Marcella is something else. But the reason 2337 01:53:57,120 --> 01:53:59,400 Speaker 1: why I poured a lot into him, even behind the 2338 01:53:59,439 --> 01:54:03,120 Speaker 1: scenes on Marcella stopped asking when my friends don't be listening, 2339 01:54:03,160 --> 01:54:05,639 Speaker 1: they don't be there. Stop waiting on friends and family. 2340 01:54:06,200 --> 01:54:08,759 Speaker 1: Stop waiting on friends and family. I had four cousins 2341 01:54:08,840 --> 01:54:10,960 Speaker 1: that came guys, and I've never met these people in 2342 01:54:11,000 --> 01:54:12,599 Speaker 1: my life, and they came to the training. I've never 2343 01:54:12,600 --> 01:54:16,120 Speaker 1: met them in my life, even your family, just because 2344 01:54:16,120 --> 01:54:19,000 Speaker 1: you don't have family rocking with you. Eventually they had 2345 01:54:19,040 --> 01:54:20,760 Speaker 1: to know who I was as a cousin because they 2346 01:54:20,800 --> 01:54:23,000 Speaker 1: can't miss that work I'm doing. So they had to 2347 01:54:23,000 --> 01:54:25,080 Speaker 1: show up and see who is this cousin that I 2348 01:54:25,280 --> 01:54:27,960 Speaker 1: never met. You think I was waiting on thel, You 2349 01:54:28,000 --> 01:54:29,679 Speaker 1: can come show up and meet me at the work, 2350 01:54:29,840 --> 01:54:31,439 Speaker 1: meet me at the work. That's how we can get 2351 01:54:31,479 --> 01:54:33,120 Speaker 1: that's what the family you ain't gonna be. And I 2352 01:54:33,200 --> 01:54:35,520 Speaker 1: told them flat out, I hope y'all come to train, 2353 01:54:35,560 --> 01:54:37,360 Speaker 1: because I'm not stopping this training to be doing no 2354 01:54:37,480 --> 01:54:40,680 Speaker 1: family reunion and we're not to sit on take out 2355 01:54:40,680 --> 01:54:43,320 Speaker 1: time on the train and talk about who cousin this 2356 01:54:43,520 --> 01:54:45,600 Speaker 1: and who grandpa is and all of that. That ain't 2357 01:54:45,600 --> 01:54:47,760 Speaker 1: what this is for. I hope y'all came for training. 2358 01:54:47,920 --> 01:54:49,880 Speaker 1: Y'all want to talk on the back end, we'll talk 2359 01:54:49,880 --> 01:54:52,560 Speaker 1: on the back end. But this was not to even 2360 01:54:52,640 --> 01:54:55,480 Speaker 1: come meet with cousins I never met before. So I 2361 01:54:55,520 --> 01:54:57,640 Speaker 1: have the large families people all over there that I've 2362 01:54:57,680 --> 01:55:00,200 Speaker 1: never met. So they came. There was cousins hey, yes, 2363 01:55:00,280 --> 01:55:02,520 Speaker 1: so so some love. They came when I because I 2364 01:55:02,560 --> 01:55:05,240 Speaker 1: was checking people in, Oh y'all cousins so and so, Hey, 2365 01:55:05,320 --> 01:55:06,920 Speaker 1: nice to meet you gave my hug, told him keep 2366 01:55:07,000 --> 01:55:09,640 Speaker 1: on pushing. So even family that I never met before 2367 01:55:09,680 --> 01:55:11,840 Speaker 1: had been there. I didn't stop to have a conversation 2368 01:55:11,920 --> 01:55:14,400 Speaker 1: with them. So I hope you understand that. That's why 2369 01:55:14,440 --> 01:55:16,440 Speaker 1: I give you a real time example. Real time. You 2370 01:55:16,480 --> 01:55:18,120 Speaker 1: ain't got time to be stopping waiting on more because 2371 01:55:18,160 --> 01:55:21,440 Speaker 1: everybody ain't called for this yo yo tribe and your 2372 01:55:21,480 --> 01:55:24,560 Speaker 1: people that are caffe and the career versus calling situation. 2373 01:55:24,640 --> 01:55:26,840 Speaker 1: The reason why there was a topic is because even 2374 01:55:26,880 --> 01:55:29,280 Speaker 1: with Michelle, I talked to her all the time. You'll 2375 01:55:29,280 --> 01:55:31,360 Speaker 1: know if it's a calling versus a career. There's some 2376 01:55:31,440 --> 01:55:33,960 Speaker 1: operatives that just want to have this as a career, 2377 01:55:34,040 --> 01:55:37,080 Speaker 1: meaning they want to be a field organizer. That's okay, guys. 2378 01:55:37,600 --> 01:55:41,400 Speaker 1: Everybody doesn't have a prophetic calling, and that's okay, but 2379 01:55:41,440 --> 01:55:42,960 Speaker 1: you need to know the difference, beween a calling and 2380 01:55:43,000 --> 01:55:46,520 Speaker 1: a career because everybody's not called for this you just made. 2381 01:55:46,520 --> 01:55:49,120 Speaker 1: There's people to go to school and political science major. 2382 01:55:49,600 --> 01:55:51,880 Speaker 1: You know, I want to do strategy. I want to 2383 01:55:51,920 --> 01:55:53,960 Speaker 1: do like that wants. It's to kept asking about doing 2384 01:55:54,000 --> 01:55:56,560 Speaker 1: research and all of that. Hey yeah, great do research. 2385 01:55:56,840 --> 01:55:58,400 Speaker 1: That may not be a calling, but she may be 2386 01:55:58,480 --> 01:56:01,480 Speaker 1: damn good at it doing a career here and doing research. 2387 01:56:01,840 --> 01:56:03,920 Speaker 1: But I do a calling though, that mean I'm gonna 2388 01:56:03,960 --> 01:56:06,839 Speaker 1: understand it by myself looking crazy as hell. That's the difference. 2389 01:56:06,880 --> 01:56:08,880 Speaker 1: That's how you know somebody looking at you like you're crazy, 2390 01:56:08,920 --> 01:56:11,720 Speaker 1: what's wrong with them? And they that's a calling versus 2391 01:56:11,800 --> 01:56:14,440 Speaker 1: a career that's gonna do things according and purpose and 2392 01:56:14,840 --> 01:56:17,360 Speaker 1: in a lineman. And you remember that one brother for 2393 01:56:17,440 --> 01:56:19,720 Speaker 1: those was an operator plays rember. That one brother kept saying, well, 2394 01:56:19,720 --> 01:56:21,840 Speaker 1: how do we sell ourselves to a candidate? I don't 2395 01:56:21,840 --> 01:56:24,080 Speaker 1: sell myself to know candidate, and any if anything, I 2396 01:56:24,160 --> 01:56:25,960 Speaker 1: tell them you're gonna roll how I roll a wing 2397 01:56:26,080 --> 01:56:29,160 Speaker 1: on function together. That don't mean everybody moved that way. 2398 01:56:29,400 --> 01:56:32,680 Speaker 1: So you have to understand the difference of calling UH 2399 01:56:33,320 --> 01:56:35,680 Speaker 1: and a career. And I'm glad you brought that up 2400 01:56:35,960 --> 01:56:48,240 Speaker 1: because that was very important.

You know, a lot of us have to 2439 01:58:48,960 --> 01:58:51,160 Speaker 1: figure it out on our own, we have to do research, 2440 01:58:51,680 --> 01:58:54,640 Speaker 1: we wing it, but you gave us to how to 2441 01:58:54,720 --> 01:58:56,960 Speaker 1: do it. And it was in order, right. It was 2442 01:58:57,120 --> 01:59:01,480 Speaker 1: like in a progressive, very strategic, very organized way of 2443 01:59:01,520 --> 01:59:03,760 Speaker 1: doing this.

I remember Chrissy 2453 01:59:31,000 --> 01:59:33,560 Speaker 1: was like, okay, I told I said, no, let's literally 2454 01:59:33,640 --> 01:59:36,360 Speaker 1: go all the way back to the first moment when 2455 01:59:36,400 --> 01:59:40,120 Speaker 1: you said I want to organize? What does that look 2456 01:59:40,160 --> 01:59:42,520 Speaker 1: like when I want to organize? And even Chrissie says, 2457 01:59:42,560 --> 01:59:44,440 Speaker 1: she said, okay, yeah, Test, you're taking me all the 2458 01:59:44,440 --> 01:59:46,320 Speaker 1: way back. Because I didn't want her to start on 2459 01:59:46,360 --> 01:59:48,960 Speaker 1: step five and ten. I said, go all the way 2460 01:59:49,000 --> 01:59:51,520 Speaker 1: back to like day one. Hey, I want to do something. 2461 01:59:51,560 --> 01:59:53,560 Speaker 1: What is the first thing that you do? Because what 2462 01:59:53,640 --> 01:59:56,680 Speaker 1: I found is attending so many different trainings, you leave 2463 01:59:56,720 --> 01:59:58,680 Speaker 1: with all this content and then you're like, damn, how 2464 01:59:58,680 --> 02:00:01,120 Speaker 1: do I What's liter the first thing that I do? 2465 02:00:01,680 --> 02:00:04,080 Speaker 1: And so I wanted to make sure that we started 2466 02:00:04,080 --> 02:00:08,000 Speaker 1: at step one and then gradually built so uh, the 2467 02:00:08,040 --> 02:00:10,080 Speaker 1: training was set up to say, okay, first, this is 2468 02:00:10,120 --> 02:00:12,520 Speaker 1: the type of team you have to have. Then the 2469 02:00:12,560 --> 02:00:14,960 Speaker 1: second one was envision of a rider because again we 2470 02:00:15,080 --> 02:00:18,840 Speaker 1: use I used hip hop titles. After you say this 2471 02:00:18,880 --> 02:00:20,720 Speaker 1: is the type of team you have, now you need 2472 02:00:20,760 --> 02:00:23,440 Speaker 1: to know it's all about you. That was very strategic. 2473 02:00:23,520 --> 02:00:26,760 Speaker 1: I wanted to end that order because what I've seen 2474 02:00:26,800 --> 02:00:29,400 Speaker 1: with these trainers is most of these training courses they 2475 02:00:29,400 --> 02:00:32,720 Speaker 1: start with the teams and then after that they go on, Okay, 2476 02:00:32,760 --> 02:00:34,320 Speaker 1: now this is how you raise money, and then now 2477 02:00:34,360 --> 02:00:36,200 Speaker 1: this is the campaign day and then now you win 2478 02:00:36,320 --> 02:00:38,640 Speaker 1: and now it's over with. And what I have seen 2479 02:00:38,800 --> 02:00:42,000 Speaker 1: even as a candidate, that you get this, they tell 2480 02:00:42,000 --> 02:00:44,240 Speaker 1: you're gonna have this team and then nobody shows up. 2481 02:00:44,480 --> 02:00:46,160 Speaker 1: And then that's where people just get out of the game. 2482 02:00:46,200 --> 02:00:49,320 Speaker 1: They that's where they usually stopped. That's why that that session, 2483 02:00:49,480 --> 02:00:51,120 Speaker 1: and I'm glad now he brought it up. It's all 2484 02:00:51,160 --> 02:00:53,760 Speaker 1: about we, but it falls on me. I drilled that 2485 02:00:53,840 --> 02:00:55,840 Speaker 1: to the trainers. This is the most important. There was 2486 02:00:55,920 --> 02:00:57,840 Speaker 1: one part that was one of the most important was 2487 02:00:57,920 --> 02:01:00,520 Speaker 1: that because that's usually where people just a, you know what, 2488 02:01:00,760 --> 02:01:03,040 Speaker 1: I'm not doing this. Don't nobody support me? Why they're 2489 02:01:03,040 --> 02:01:05,280 Speaker 1: not supporting me? The training said, I'm supposed to have 2490 02:01:05,320 --> 02:01:08,800 Speaker 1: a fundraising manager and a voter outreach person and of 2491 02:01:08,880 --> 02:01:10,680 Speaker 1: this and that, and that's where people get out of 2492 02:01:10,680 --> 02:01:13,040 Speaker 1: the game. I could have started with it's all about 2493 02:01:13,040 --> 02:01:15,640 Speaker 1: you starting out, but I wanted I strategically wanted the 2494 02:01:15,720 --> 02:01:18,560 Speaker 1: team first because I wanted you to I wanted you 2495 02:01:18,600 --> 02:01:20,680 Speaker 1: to get built up to know that you have a team, 2496 02:01:20,760 --> 02:01:23,160 Speaker 1: and then brought down to know you really may not 2497 02:01:23,240 --> 02:01:26,080 Speaker 1: be them. And then now let's go back to community 2498 02:01:26,080 --> 02:01:28,960 Speaker 1: coalition building too. Now this is how you find your 2499 02:01:29,040 --> 02:01:31,600 Speaker 1: new tribe, and then now this is how you plan, 2500 02:01:31,800 --> 02:01:34,280 Speaker 1: and then now this is how you manage. So that 2501 02:01:34,400 --> 02:01:38,120 Speaker 1: was very much in order, strategically in place. And I'm 2502 02:01:38,160 --> 02:01:40,360 Speaker 1: glad you brought that up because I wanted I wanted 2503 02:01:40,360 --> 02:01:42,200 Speaker 1: you to. I wanted that. I don't know if y'all 2504 02:01:42,280 --> 02:01:44,800 Speaker 1: knew that, but that was it was strategically set up 2505 02:01:44,880 --> 02:01:51,640 Speaker 1: that way, So thank you for naming that kindle. You 2506 02:01:51,680 --> 02:01:58,200 Speaker 1: can now speak. I know you were at the training 2507 02:01:58,200 --> 02:02:00,680 Speaker 1: because I remember your name.

Adults have a hard time. 2537 02:03:20,360 --> 02:03:22,480 Speaker 1: They feel they're disappointed you by saying I can't attend. 2538 02:03:22,520 --> 02:03:25,000 Speaker 1: It's okay if you can't attend. I just needed to know. 2539 02:03:25,120 --> 02:03:27,040 Speaker 1: That was a strategy to like, be okay, we're saying 2540 02:03:27,040 --> 02:03:29,360 Speaker 1: I can or I can't. It costs money to send 2541 02:03:29,400 --> 02:03:32,240 Speaker 1: y'all text messages. You don't just text for free. So 2542 02:03:32,280 --> 02:03:34,520 Speaker 1: I needed to know so I can get an idea 2543 02:03:34,560 --> 02:03:36,400 Speaker 1: on food and all that. Because this is at the 2544 02:03:36,440 --> 02:03:39,320 Speaker 1: convention center. They needed these numbers, so I had to have, 2545 02:03:39,440 --> 02:03:40,880 Speaker 1: you know, I couldn't just wait on people. I got 2546 02:03:40,880 --> 02:03:43,560 Speaker 1: the text message I told you I confirmed three months ago. 2547 02:03:43,880 --> 02:03:46,280 Speaker 1: Think about it, y'all. From the very beginning, when people 2548 02:03:46,280 --> 02:03:48,440 Speaker 1: were signing up in June, I said, check your email 2549 02:03:48,480 --> 02:03:51,400 Speaker 1: and your Texas often. Check it often. I kept saying, 2550 02:03:51,400 --> 02:03:54,120 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to confirm more than once. Confirm on 2551 02:03:54,280 --> 02:03:57,160 Speaker 1: confirm or confirm. Things change in life. I can't assume 2552 02:03:57,480 --> 02:03:59,200 Speaker 1: that the same people that signed up in the beginning 2553 02:03:59,200 --> 02:04:00,600 Speaker 1: of the same people that sign and at the end. 2554 02:04:00,880 --> 02:04:03,000 Speaker 1: That's a part of organizing guys and people that are 2555 02:04:03,000 --> 02:04:05,400 Speaker 1: too damn lazy to do that. That's why they have 2556 02:04:05,840 --> 02:04:07,600 Speaker 1: when they say, oh, well, I always one of my team. 2557 02:04:07,640 --> 02:04:10,160 Speaker 1: They said, we don't always expect about thirties percent not 2558 02:04:10,240 --> 02:04:12,440 Speaker 1: to show up. I said, if you're expecting thirty percent 2559 02:04:12,520 --> 02:04:15,200 Speaker 1: not to show up, you didn't engage them appropriately, Because 2560 02:04:15,240 --> 02:04:17,840 Speaker 1: if you know even at thirty percent, Let's say I 2561 02:04:17,840 --> 02:04:20,440 Speaker 1: say three hundred people gonna show up. I should know 2562 02:04:20,600 --> 02:04:23,160 Speaker 1: who those thirty percent are before the event. If you 2563 02:04:23,280 --> 02:04:26,640 Speaker 1: engage them. There's gonna still be some last minute stuff 2564 02:04:26,640 --> 02:04:30,360 Speaker 1: going on, but overwhelmingly I should have an idea of 2565 02:04:30,440 --> 02:04:32,360 Speaker 1: who's gonna be there and who's not gonna be there. 2566 02:04:32,560 --> 02:04:34,640 Speaker 1: When people just do that, throw it up against the 2567 02:04:34,640 --> 02:04:37,360 Speaker 1: wall and see what sticks, it's because they did an 2568 02:04:37,440 --> 02:04:39,520 Speaker 1: r n v P at the last minute. They just 2569 02:04:39,560 --> 02:04:41,960 Speaker 1: assumed if they say they coming, they're coming. And then 2570 02:04:42,000 --> 02:04:44,040 Speaker 1: you come to the room and there's forty people at best, 2571 02:04:44,320 --> 02:04:45,960 Speaker 1: And then you're sitting around talking about where you know, 2572 02:04:46,000 --> 02:04:47,960 Speaker 1: we don't never show up for nothing when you know 2573 02:04:48,040 --> 02:04:49,840 Speaker 1: we show up for the club where you know we 2574 02:04:49,920 --> 02:04:51,960 Speaker 1: don't this, Well, maybe we should have had food. No, 2575 02:04:52,080 --> 02:04:54,560 Speaker 1: maybe you should have engaged. When you take the time 2576 02:04:54,600 --> 02:04:57,080 Speaker 1: to engage d n C, you don't have to worry 2577 02:04:57,080 --> 02:04:59,480 Speaker 1: about black people not voting. When you take the time 2578 02:04:59,520 --> 02:05:01,840 Speaker 1: to engage each Republican party, you don't have to wear 2579 02:05:01,840 --> 02:05:04,840 Speaker 1: about black people not vote. When you engage black men 2580 02:05:05,000 --> 02:05:07,400 Speaker 1: you're around. You don't have to sit around some of 2581 02:05:07,440 --> 02:05:09,560 Speaker 1: these people who running for governor talking about black men. 2582 02:05:09,600 --> 02:05:12,680 Speaker 1: Don't vote. You didn't engage you. That's just the bottom line. 2583 02:05:12,760 --> 02:05:15,600 Speaker 1: So it all starts with engagement and that was what 2584 02:05:15,920 --> 02:05:18,000 Speaker 1: started this training. And I hope you guys were able 2585 02:05:18,000 --> 02:05:20,000 Speaker 1: to see that. I'm sorry, Kendall, I just want to 2586 02:05:20,040 --> 02:05:22,879 Speaker 1: put a pin in that part.

She's still with us, do 2885 02:19:09,800 --> 02:19:11,920 Speaker 1: thick and thin, and this ain't the end. This is 2886 02:19:12,000 --> 02:19:14,560 Speaker 1: the begin because to be absent with the body is 2887 02:19:14,600 --> 02:19:17,080 Speaker 1: present with the Lord. We used our body to perform 2888 02:19:17,120 --> 02:19:19,240 Speaker 1: how to put on the full arm of God. Because 2889 02:19:19,280 --> 02:19:21,039 Speaker 1: she knew that in life we would need to pull 2890 02:19:21,040 --> 02:19:24,520 Speaker 1: out our holy ghost sword. And as you saw in 2891 02:19:24,560 --> 02:19:26,560 Speaker 1: the video, at the end of every performance, before we 2892 02:19:26,600 --> 02:19:30,560 Speaker 1: would say goodbye, she would have us seen I love him, 2893 02:19:30,640 --> 02:19:34,400 Speaker 1: I love him, Oh how much I love him. She 2894 02:19:34,520 --> 02:19:37,880 Speaker 1: had a singer because she wanted us to tell everybody 2895 02:19:38,080 --> 02:19:42,320 Speaker 1: before we said goodbye who we loved and why. So 2896 02:19:42,400 --> 02:19:44,720 Speaker 1: as I say goodbye on behalf of the friendship back 2897 02:19:44,760 --> 02:19:46,760 Speaker 1: the church drill team, we love you, ses the Bridget. 2898 02:19:47,640 --> 02:19:50,080 Speaker 1: I hope I was able to explain why. And we 2899 02:19:50,240 --> 02:19:53,000 Speaker 1: know that your home now, but it's only natural for 2900 02:19:53,120 --> 02:19:58,880 Speaker 1: us to cry. We love her, We love her, Oh 2901 02:19:59,000 --> 02:20:02,160 Speaker 1: how much we love of her Jesus, she has her 2902 02:20:02,200 --> 02:20:07,280 Speaker 1: crown Jesus, the precious One, Jesus. Such the bridget a 2903 02:20:07,400 --> 02:20:10,760 Speaker 1: job well done. So that's the end of that piece. 2904 02:20:11,240 --> 02:20:12,840 Speaker 1: I'll put the video up if you want to see. 2905 02:20:12,879 --> 02:20:14,720 Speaker 1: Before we would go out, we would say Jesus, a 2906 02:20:14,840 --> 02:20:17,959 Speaker 1: precious one, Jesus, you know our Lord and saviors. So 2907 02:20:18,200 --> 02:20:20,240 Speaker 1: it makes sense if you watch the piece. But I 2908 02:20:20,280 --> 02:20:21,879 Speaker 1: wanted to say that. And the reason why I wanted 2909 02:20:21,879 --> 02:20:23,400 Speaker 1: to do that poem is because you just heard the 2910 02:20:23,440 --> 02:20:25,520 Speaker 1: sister to talk about three generations. And I'm gonna end 2911 02:20:25,560 --> 02:20:27,760 Speaker 1: it here because it's very important that we end on 2912 02:20:27,879 --> 02:20:30,560 Speaker 1: a prophetic word. You just heard the sisters say that 2913 02:20:30,640 --> 02:20:33,879 Speaker 1: I did move Hell and how watered the bring three generations, 2914 02:20:33,879 --> 02:20:36,520 Speaker 1: her mother, herself and her child. And she said, you 2915 02:20:36,640 --> 02:20:39,120 Speaker 1: planted a seed in her and so that poem was 2916 02:20:39,240 --> 02:20:41,560 Speaker 1: very important to do because I wanted you to know 2917 02:20:41,600 --> 02:20:43,560 Speaker 1: what I left that train to go do on Monday, 2918 02:20:43,760 --> 02:20:46,200 Speaker 1: which was to confirm the seed that was planted in me. 2919 02:20:46,520 --> 02:20:49,720 Speaker 1: And we really can do this. We can break generational curses. 2920 02:20:50,040 --> 02:20:52,680 Speaker 1: It isn't us. You don't have to have the budget, 2921 02:20:52,840 --> 02:20:55,119 Speaker 1: you don't have to have an elected official push you, 2922 02:20:55,120 --> 02:20:57,640 Speaker 1: you don't have to have a quote unquote organization.
