  Speaker 1: course y'all know Saturdays, we're off Tarrida Tarrida's on Sunday,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Latonia's on Monday, and then Patrisa's on Tuesday, and then
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: we are off Wednesday and Thursday of next week because
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: we do not have hosts for those hours for those shows,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: so we're off. So I'll probably be doing some I'll
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: probably be doing some stuff here on the network with
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: some of those that are incarcerated. I'll probably bring some
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: of those guys that are incarcerated on share their stories
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: and try to bring some light to some of the
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: things that's going on behind prison walls. So that's probably
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: what we're gonna do. On eleventh and twelfth. Of course,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: y'all know, I'm gonna be interviewing our kings on TikTok.

• 13:11
  Speaker 1: I know you guys have been seeing a lot of
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: the women, but we've not been seeing a lot of
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: stuff from our men, but we're gonna have an opportunity
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: to see some of these men, share their brands, share
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: what they're doing. You got an opportunity to purchase some
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: of their books and to support them and connect with them.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: So make sure that you tune in next week. Wednesday
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: and Thursday, I'm gonna be live on TikTok and I
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: am going to be interviewing some of those that are
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: incarcerated on Wednesday and Thursday and next week live right
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: here on the Crew podcast in the eighth in the
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: eight o'clock hour, y'all in the eight o'clock hour, because
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: we do not have hosts for those two days. We
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: do not have hosts for Wednesday and Thursday of next week,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: so I am going to be holding down the fort
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: until we get those spaces filled in. So y'all are
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: probably gonna be meeting some of those incarcerated individuals that
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: y'all hear me talk about all the time. Those that
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: are authors, you will get the opportunity to meet them.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Cornell is an author, the Kendrick who Patrice had on
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: her shoulder the other day. He's an author. And I
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: have a couple of more authors that I work with.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: That is incarcerated and definitely going to see if I
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: can get them on next week because they are also men,
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: you know, they just happened to be incarcerated. You know.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: This month is our our black history, our men's Black
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: History Month, because there's not a national reckon reckon recognition
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: of our black men, so we do have. This month
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: is Men's Men Mental Health Awareness Month as well. If
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: you did not know that, this month is also Men's
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: Mental Health Awareness Month, and this is so the month
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: of June is Men's Mental Health Awareness Month, Father's Day.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: We recognize our men the whole month of June. So
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: for us, for the last five years we have been celebrating.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: We call it Black Men's History Month. We have Women's
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: History Month and all this other stuff, but there's not
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: a specific time that's truly set aside for our men,
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: and especially our black men, who have done so much
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: and have been treated so badly, and I feel like
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: society has truly let them down, has truly disappointed them,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: and has truly not stood up to you know, what
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: they are supposed to be doing when it comes to
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: our men. So I definitely am my brother's keeper. So
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: y'all always see me trying to shot them out, trying
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: to uplift them, trying to encourage them, trying to you know,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: let them know that they are not forgotten. So we
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: just dropped another book book two Kings, You Are Not Forgotten,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: and it was specifically designed for those that are incarcerated.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you, I truly enjoyed working with the three
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: individuals that work with me, that collaborated with me to
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: do this book. Y'all. It is a thirty one day devotional.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: It has transitional information, it has all type of stuff.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: So if you have someone that is incarcerated, this is
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: definitely a must have for them, especially as they began
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: to work towards coming home. This is something that could
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: help them as they began to transition back home because
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: it has different resources and different things, and it walks
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: you different processes and different things that can help you
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: on that journey because a lot of times these prison
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: systems are not set up, they're not designed for true rehabilitation.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: They was not designed for true rehabilitation, so we don't
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: see that. You know, they do everything but rehabilitate our kings.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: You know, they do everything in their power to break
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: them and y'all have heard that. If y'all followed the podcast,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: y'all tune into the podcast, y'all listen to some of
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: these clips. Y'all listen to some of the shows. Here
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: what goes on behind these prison walls and what these
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: individuals sometimes have to endure. And then you talk about
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: them being wrongfully and overly incarcerated and still having to
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: endure some of the stuff that they have to endure.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: I think it's horrific and they should not have to.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: But we gonna make sure that we do our part
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: and keeping them uplifted and keeping them inspired and keeping
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: them encouraged, because a lot of people, when you go
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: to prison, they forget about you. They forget that you
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: still exist. They cast you off, especially if you have
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: a long sentence. You know, when I hear people saying
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: that they got ninety nine years, they got one hundred years,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: they got all of this. Then I know a lot
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: of family members. A lot of these individuals end up
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: by themselves because they're family members. They cast them to
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: the wolves, they forget about them. If you have a
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: loved one, y'all, y'all, don't forget about them, because there's
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: always a chance that they can be that they can
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: be parole, that something can be found out about their case.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Because y'all know, if you follow, if you follow the news,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: and you follow what goes on, we see all the time.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: How many times do we see individuals that have been
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: wrongfully and overly incarcerated that eventually set free and able
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: to you know, be redeemed. You know, it happens all
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: the time, and it happens more to our black and
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: brown people than any other race. And y'all, we we
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: gotta keep fighting, We gotta keep standing, We gotta keep
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: bringing awareness to what's going on, because truly, the judicial
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: system is not set up for us. But we are
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: as people, we are, we are evolving. You know, as
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: much as they try to keep us down, as much
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: as they try to keep us buried, you know, we
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: always rise a bub that's just something about us. We
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: can never It's like, we can never be contained because
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: we are not meant to be contained. Like when you
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: know who you are and you know what you possess,
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: then you know the power that you walk in. And
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: we gotta keep going forth. We gotta keep going forth,
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: got to keep going forth. And we as brown people y'all,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: we gotta stick together, and we got to do a
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: better job at supporting each other and uplift in each
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: other and not pulling each other down. Because now we see, y'all,
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: we see if your eyes hadn't been open, then they
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: they're not gonna be open. But I'm grateful and again,
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: thank you guys for jumping on. Again. This was not
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: my show. This was supposed to be a doctor Chen's show.
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: She her name of her show is Asked Speaks and
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: knowledge to power prosperity with the Queen Mother. I'm not
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: sure what happened. Again, she's out of the Virgin Island,
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: so sometimes and we know that she sometimes have connections
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: problem and depending on what's going on over there, and
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: they'm telling what may be going on, So we always are.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: We're always mindful of that when we come on the
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: shows that you know, we don't know what's going on.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: But again, I just wanted to be obedient and wanted
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: to make sure that I occupied the space for as
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: long as I occupy the space to provide whatever knowledge
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: and I could provide. So that's what I did, and
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: I'm gone, y'all. I stuck around for as long as
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: I could, and I'm gone. I'm out of here again.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Tomorrow same time, eight pm Easter Standard time, we'd be
