  Speaker 1: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from Al Salvador
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy nom the United States
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: are here illegally, your next you will be fined nearly
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned, and deported. You will
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: never return. But if you register using our CBP home
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: app and leave now, you could be allowed to return legally.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Do what's right. Leave now. Under President Trump, America's laws,
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: border and families will be protected.

  Speaker 2: Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: Putting the word black in front of something with no
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: real talking, it's interesting, you know, That's just one of
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: these things. I just feel like it only happens with
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: black people, where it would be x Y and Z
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: company and they're doing a Black initiative or this is
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: the Black division or.
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: Like the soul aspect of it.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: And it's like, I feel like if if anybody else
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: did it, it wouldn't even be a thought of It
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: wouldn't be allowed, and it would just be you know,
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: extremely disrespectful to their culture.
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: Like if we were to have.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: The annual Arab Summit, right, and we're like, and we're
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: not Arab, and we and we every year we threw
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: the Annual Arab Summit and we were the ones behind it,
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: and we didn't really have any Arab partners. People that
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: run it might be Arabs, but it's literally us behind it.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: An you lisia Arab Summit. Like I'm not opposed to
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: doing that, but I think the only way to do
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: that is to have a partner in the situation who's
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: Arab fifty to fifty split however you decide. Then it's like, okay,
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: now that makes sense. Or if we just did like
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: a Mexican division, Like if we did a Mexican division,
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: then we would have to have people from Mexico, like
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: we would have to actually you know, integrate with Mexicans, Right,
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: we can't just hire people and then just say like, oh,
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: this is this is what we're doing. This is our
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: initiative for Mexicans, this is our initiative for Indians, this
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: is our initiative for you know, you name it, Japanese people.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: I just feel like, no, no, no, whop, we would
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: even go for that, And this doesn't make any sense,
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Like if they're going to do is theyre going to do?
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: They do their own thing.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: They have Telemundo or they have Al Jazeer, so they
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: have like you know what I'm saying. So I just
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: feel like it's just we've just been so used to
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: that is just kind of normal at this point in time.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: And like I said, I feel like, you know, if
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: you're going to do something targeted towards black people, because
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: everybody targets black people, I don't think you have to
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: put the word black in front of it. You can
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: just say, like you know, it's just like a record label, right,
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: and it's just you putting out the type of music.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: It's automatically going to attract a certain element. But once
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: you start to put black in front of it, now
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: you're being very direct at what you're doing, right, and
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: it's very targeted. So I just feel like if the
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: word black is in something or associated with something and
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: it's no real black equity involved in it, like at all,
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: I just don't understand how that works. And I don't
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: understand how it works. I also don't understand why it's
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: accepted because it's to me, it's like a fall of charity.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: It's like to say like, you guys can't really do
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: it yourself, so we're going to do it for you.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: And I just I don't know in this day and age,
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: I don't know why that is even championed or accepted
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: or celebrated.
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: How do we make these companies give us equity.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: I don't even think it's about making sure that they
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: give us equity. I just think that it's stopping it
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: before it even happens, like you know what I mean,
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: like to say like, yo, hey, we're not going to
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: support it off the rip, So if you don't support something,
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: they don't even have an initiative to actually do it,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: and then be like, you know, really have strong pushback
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: on it to the point where they just feel so
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: uncomfortable that they will just give it up. Like that's
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: a mistake, My bad write an apology letter, Like, you know,
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: we had good intentions, but we went about this the
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: wrong way. We rather support people that's really doing it
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: on the ground already, or we want to empower, you know,
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: people that's actually you know, from the culture. Like so
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: I don't think that they're never going to give us equity.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: So I just feel like it's just better to either
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: to start your own things, support your own thing, but
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: boycott will support. It's more important, like you know as
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: far as like just don't don't champion it. But you know,
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: there's always going to be somebody black that will willingly
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: champion anything that's not black for free, by the way,
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: for free, you don't even have to pay them, and
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: don't do whatever you want. They'll do a press conference,
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: they'll they'll tap dance, they do cartwheels.
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: And don't forget the car and believe it.
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: Is what it is.
• 5:26
  Speaker 6: Like So, so what you're saying, like, how do we
• 5:27
  Speaker 6: make them give us equity? Like I said, I'm with
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: shy on it. I don't think it is give us equality.
• 5:32
  Speaker 6: But we also got to pay attention to like a
• 5:34
  Speaker 6: lot of these corporations that are using that but also
• 5:37
  Speaker 6: inside of their their companies they make these like diversity committees.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: That is, be like, how is it diverse?
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 5:46
  Speaker 6: Like you'll find like, all right, let me find people
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: of color who work here, and you guys are going
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: to have your own club inside of this company, and
• 5:53
  Speaker 6: you guys can put on anything you want that you
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: feel like will be represented representative of your culture you like.
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: But it's that diversity, right. So that's that's one of
• 6:03
  Speaker 6: those things where it's like, all right, well we'll try
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: to appease or we'll try to accommodate, but is that
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: what we really want?
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: You know?
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: What I'm saying is they always like we always had
• 6:14
  Speaker 6: that quote.
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: It's like you're celebrated and not tolerated.
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: Yep, but we got to really believe that, like really
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: believe it and really live by it.
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and at some point these companies are earners.
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: What's up?
• 6:28
  Speaker 6: You ever walk into a small business and everything just works,
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: like the checkout is fast, or seats are digital, tipping
• 6:35
  Speaker 6: is a breeze, and you're out the door before the
• 6:38
  Speaker 6: line even builds. Odds are they're using Square? We love

• 9:18
  Speaker 5: You're going to have to find a way to take
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: care of not only us, but like the customer base
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: a lot more or people are going to leave. I
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: don't I think it was bs what Paramount did about
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: not selling BT to Tyler in fifteen, But it's like
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: I felt like they did that for a rollout. We're
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: going to tease it like hey, we want to sell it,
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: and then retract the offer. But the companies that do
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: not take care and people are waking up, Like even
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: with court cutting and Cable, that was because as a
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: point people felt like you were taking advantage of us.
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: Prices were going up and there was a monopoly at
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: and T went through the same thing and they have
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: not been able to correct it. Like if you do
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: not take care people, they feel like you are just
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: constantly using them or manipulating them and not giving them
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: anything back of value. Old the next two or three years,
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: it's gonna be a lot of trouble for some of
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: these companies that are not given You choose. You neither
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: choose to give equity and take care of everybody, or
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: your shit's gonna go under you picked, choice is yours? Yep, yep.
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: That's the one thing I will say about the NFT
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: culture I did like even if I can bring it
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: up like I saw Bee burns, some people foul lawsuit
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: against the Southby's because boyd Ay Yacht Club isn't performed
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: as well what Pimpsey said, if it was Borday Yacht
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: Club back there, it gotta be boord A yacht Club.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: Now, how you gonna sue?
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: It's an investment. Gotta pick, you gotta pick. But what
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: do I know? Come see what Robert Smith has to
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: say at investments.
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: Please, But that'd be like if it's like an airline said,
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: let me make up an airline. Let's say it's like
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: Red Blue Airline, right, Red Blue Airline is like the
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: number one airline in the world. And Red Blue Airline
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: made a new a new ip called Red Blue Airline Black.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: And the Red Blue Airline Black only flies to major
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: black city so it go from like New Orleans to
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: Atlanta to Chicago to DC and and all the flight
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: intendants is black. And they'll serve fried chicken on the planes.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: Like you say it, like, how would that homes Stewards
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: on there? But how crazy is that? But how crazy
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: does that sound? But how crazy does that sound? That
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: sounds crazy, right, Chicken fried rice boy?
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: Nope, like it sounds crazy. It sounds crazy, right. But
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: that's what's happened.
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: That's the equivalent of what these companies do when they
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: do these black when they throw black in front of
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: it or for the culture or black at the end
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: of it. It's the same exact things. It's the craziest
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: thing in the world. And nobody that's an eye.
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: Is the company doing well? Clearly they won't be an investment,
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: so we can put a name on that bullet.
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's not one company though.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: That's why I didn't want to name any one company
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: because a lot of companies are guilty of doing it.
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: And like I said, it's something that it keeps happening,
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: so it happens across all areas of everything, right, Like
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: companies they you know, they they realized that black people
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: are a consumer based that they can make money from,
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: so they pander to black people. And like I said,
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: the way that they do it, I just think it's
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: not tastefully done and it's disrespectful. But that's just my
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: own personal thoughts. On everybody feel differently. But like I said,
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: just using that airline example, like if it would just
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: like it's just puzzling, Like how you start something for
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: black people and it's not run.
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: By BLA black people.
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: It's like soul playing and.
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: Then they tell you like, well, ownership doesn't matter.
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: Hate that, Yeah, I hate that.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: As long as black people are empowered, that's what they
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: that's what they use these terms. They're gonna empower you.
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: That's disrespectful. That's a dispectful term. How are you gonna
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: empower somebody that's like saying like you you're like above them.
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: You can only empower somebody that's beneath you. Yeah, like
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like we're gonna we're gonna
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: empower black voices. We're gonna empower black leadership. Well, who's
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: the leader. It's only one leader, So you're gonna empower
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: black leaders No, you're just hiring black people, that's what
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: you're doing. You're hiring black people and you're putting them
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: in positions, but they have no equity. They don't own anything.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: It's not their company. This is this is what Dame
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: Dash told DJ Mvy and Charlomagne and Angela Yee seven
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: years ago, like you don't own iHeart. I don't think
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: it was disrespectful the way what he what he said.
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: People might have got offended by how he said it.
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: But so I listen to the message in the how
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: it's delivered.
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: People, people, and even people that work at the corporations.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of great people that work at these
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: corporations that have good intentions, but they're under a misconception.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: They think that they have like real control and real power,
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: but they don't. They can be they can be fired. Yeah,
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: if they do something too radical, they're fired. If they
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: do something that that the higher ups don't agree with,
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: they're fired. So how empowered are you really? How empowered
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: are you really?
• 14:36
  Speaker 5: Or they make you train somebody else for your job replacement.
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: It's just my thoughts, Just my thoughts.
