- 0:01Speaker 1: This is a miracle, there is no question.
- 0:05Speaker 2: And there are problems in this country between police and community.
- 0:10Speaker 3: Yes, you are a donkey.
- 0:13Speaker 4: The latest on that police killing of a black man,
- 0:15Speaker 4: now the new developments in the definite spatshooting rampage.
- 0:18Speaker 3: Then say it was a really bad day for him
- 0:19Speaker 3: and this is.
- 0:20Speaker 5: What he did, and so we are in a state
- 0:23Speaker 5: of emergency.
- 0:24Speaker 3: Okay.
- 0:24Speaker 2: White supremacist violence is always has been the number one
- 0:28Speaker 2: threat to our society. But I'm also very proud that
- 0:31Speaker 2: my wife is white.
- 0:33Speaker 3: The breakfast club, bitches, please tell me why was I your.
- 0:38Speaker 2: Donkey of the day? Well, donkey today for Friday, July
- 0:41Speaker 2: twenty first goes through the Florida Border Education. What does
- 0:43Speaker 2: your uncle Shawla always say about the great state of Florida.
- 0:46Speaker 2: The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and
- 0:48Speaker 2: all of Florida, and today is no exception. And those
- 0:51Speaker 2: folks are going to remain crazy because the current government
- 0:54Speaker 2: they have is going to drive them that way, all right. See,
- 0:57Speaker 2: the Florida Border Education approved a new set of standards
- 1:00Speaker 2: how black history should be taught in the state's public schools.
- 1:02Speaker 2: Would you like to know what their new standards are?
- 1:05Speaker 2: Let's go to Fox thirty five or Lando for the report.
- 1:07Speaker 3: Police.
- 1:08Speaker 4: So, the Florida Department of Education Board approved several controversial
- 1:12Speaker 4: rules for the upcoming school year. One of the biggest
- 1:15Speaker 4: changes is to social study standards for African American history
- 1:20Speaker 4: for kindergarten through twelfth grade. The board had a task
- 1:23Speaker 4: force rewrite the new African American History curriculum. The board
- 1:28Speaker 4: feels they created a well rounded curriculum that provides a
- 1:31Speaker 4: depth of knowledge of what African Americans have gone through,
- 1:35Speaker 4: but there are many in the meeting that voice their
- 1:37Speaker 4: opposition to the new standards, including Senator Geraldine Thompson, who
- 1:42Speaker 4: believes this was an effort but not a comprehensive account
- 1:45Speaker 4: of African American history. For example, she believes the Acoe
- 1:49Speaker 4: massacre will not be taught in a way that shares
- 1:51Speaker 4: a whole story with both sides.
- 1:54Speaker 1: I think we're short changing our students. It's the students
- 1:57Speaker 1: who are going to suffer by not knowing the history
- 2:01Speaker 1: and therefore not really embracing all of who we are.
- 2:07Speaker 1: We can't celebrate progress unless we acknowledge the pain that
- 2:12Speaker 1: came about with it.
- 2:13Speaker 2: Very true system, if they aren't afraid of the full
- 2:16Speaker 2: truth of American history, and how come they just won't
- 2:19Speaker 2: tell it? This is the latest nonsense in Florida's debate
- 2:21Speaker 2: over black history. The Education department already rejected a preliminary
- 2:25Speaker 2: pilot version of AP African American Studies courses for high
- 2:27Speaker 2: school students, which it claimed lacked educational value. Well, I
- 2:31Speaker 2: can tell you what has zero educational value, and that's lies.
- 2:35Speaker 3: Okay.
- 2:35Speaker 2: Telling people that the enslaved developed skills which in some
- 2:39Speaker 2: instances could be applied for their personal benefit is a
- 2:43Speaker 2: white devil damned lie. Slavery wasn't no vocational school. Nobody
- 2:47Speaker 2: enrolled in slavery so they could learn the trade, all right.
- 2:50Speaker 2: They make slavery sound like it was a welding class. Right,
- 2:53Speaker 2: You didn't want to implement the AP African American Studies
- 2:56Speaker 2: class because you said it didn't tell the whole truth
- 2:58Speaker 2: about American history. Well, these whose standards y'all created? On
- 3:01Speaker 2: the true visa? You can't take credit for the strength
- 3:03Speaker 2: and methods of survival that slaves learn based off a
- 3:06Speaker 2: matter of necessity.
- 3:07Speaker 3: They had no choice.
- 3:08Speaker 2: Ain't nobody taught them that a first law of nature
- 3:11Speaker 2: is self preservation?
- 3:12Speaker 3: Right?
- 3:13Speaker 2: They're just trying to survive, all right, they gentrified our neighborhoods.
- 3:15Speaker 2: Now they gentrified our past and our history. They really
- 3:19Speaker 2: trying to take credit for how resilient we are as
- 3:21Speaker 2: people after enslaving us.
- 3:23Speaker 3: Could you imagine, if you know, when they're alive.
- 3:25Speaker 2: I Turner took credit for Tina Turner knowing how to
- 3:28Speaker 2: take a punch. How would that sound. Now let me
- 3:32Speaker 2: give you an example of something they want to teach.
- 3:33Speaker 2: You heard it in the news report oh Coley, Florida.
- 3:36Speaker 2: They want to talk about the nineteen twenty oh Coley,
- 3:38Speaker 2: Florida massacre. And under the new rules, they require that
- 3:40Speaker 2: instruction includes acts of violence perpetrated against and by African Americans. Okay,
- 3:46Speaker 2: the massacre is considered the deadliest election day violence in
- 3:50Speaker 2: US history, and according to several histories of the incident,
- 3:53Speaker 2: it started when Moses Norman, a prominent black landowner in
- 3:56Speaker 2: the community, attempted to cast his ballot and was turned
- 3:59Speaker 2: away by white poll workers. That's like the whitewashed version
- 4:03Speaker 2: of what really happened. Okay, what happened was a mob
- 4:06Speaker 2: of white supremacist murdered at least fifty black people for
- 4:11Speaker 2: attempting to exercise their legal and democratic right to vote.
- 4:14Speaker 3: Okay. On November first, the day before the election.
- 4:16Speaker 2: With their robes and their crosses, the KKK the Ku
- 4:21Speaker 2: Klux Klan, paraded through the streets of two black communities
- 4:25Speaker 2: in Okoe, and they had megaphones, and it was nighttime,
- 4:29Speaker 2: and they warned that not a single Negro will be
- 4:33Speaker 2: permitted to vote, and if any of them dared to,
- 4:35Speaker 2: there would be dire consequences. If somebody walks through your
- 4:39Speaker 2: neighborhood the night before an election and tells you that
- 4:43Speaker 2: if you vote, there's going to be dire consequences, then
- 4:45Speaker 2: the next day a mob of white supremacist kills fifty
- 4:50Speaker 2: Black people for voting.
- 4:52Speaker 3: That is premeditated murdered ladies and gettlemen.
- 4:55Speaker 2: Okay, when you say acts of violence, all right, when
- 4:58Speaker 2: you say acts of violence perpetrated against and buy African Americans,
- 5:03Speaker 2: please knock it off. There was no violence committed by
- 5:07Speaker 2: African Americans in regards to the Old Koe massacre, unless,
- 5:10Speaker 2: of course, you think Black people exercising their right to
- 5:12Speaker 2: vote is an act of violence. And if Black people
- 5:14Speaker 2: did get violent on that day, it was in self
- 5:16Speaker 2: defense of the white supremacist mob that was trying to
- 5:19Speaker 2: kill them.
- 5:19Speaker 3: Who the hell gonna stand around and just die?
- 5:21Speaker 2: Okay, what these people are doing is trying to remix history,
- 5:25Speaker 2: all right. These white people are trying to do what
- 5:26Speaker 2: you made. Dupre and Diddy have mastered definition of the remix.
- 5:29Speaker 2: We invented the remix whatever it is. Those white folks
- 5:31Speaker 2: in Florida are doing it all right. They're trying to
- 5:33Speaker 2: do it right. Yes, what they're trying to do right now.
- 5:36Speaker 2: So to all the education and civil rights advocates who
- 5:38Speaker 2: are pushing back against this, keep fighting.
- 5:41Speaker 3: We respect it. We're riding with you.
- 5:43Speaker 2: What I have to tell y'all, we can't rely on
- 5:45Speaker 2: white institutions to teach all kids.
- 5:47Speaker 3: Okay.
- 5:47Speaker 2: Every great black leader we've ever had has told us this,
- 5:50Speaker 2: you know, and we must listen. We cannot rely on
- 5:53Speaker 2: white institutions to teach all kids black history. We have
- 5:55Speaker 2: to self educate our kids in regard to black history.
- 5:58Speaker 2: We have to self educate each each other in regards
- 6:01Speaker 2: to black history. Give book recommendations, and encourage each other
- 6:04Speaker 2: to learn as much about black history it's human humanly possible.
- 6:08Speaker 2: Why would I rely on my open enemy to teach
- 6:12Speaker 2: me about me? Florida is showing us what happens when
- 6:17Speaker 2: you do that. Please give to Florida Board of Education
- 6:20Speaker 2: the biggest he huh.
- 6:24Speaker 3: You know it's crazy.
- 6:25Speaker 2: I've been here all morning talking about Nipsey Hustles book
- 6:30Speaker 2: recommendational listen, you know, because you know, Nipsey left us
- 6:33Speaker 2: with a bunch of books that he thinks that we
- 6:35Speaker 2: should read to educate ourselves.
- 6:37Speaker 3: And I didn't even realize.
- 6:37Speaker 2: I got my Nipsey Hustle chain and a Nipsey T
- 6:40Speaker 2: shirt on. I mean, I know I wore this morning,
- 6:41Speaker 2: but I didn't know we were gonna be having these conversations. Yes,
