  Speaker 1: long walk yesterday in Brooklyn, but I was at this
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: restaurant called Tillies. I went to go get some takeout
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: while I was there, and you know, in Brooklyn, well
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: in New York, they've been doing drinks to go. So
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: I had this little wine drink and I think I
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: haven't been drinking that much. So I had one of
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: those yeah out and about all right, Well, um, shout
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: out to Revolt. Yesterday I was on Revolt. They were
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: talking about let me get the correct beyond black and blue.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: So they were talking to me in another lady, I
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: can't remember her name, and they were just talking about
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: the police and what we feel a police should be doing.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: And they were just asking my opinion what my dad said.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Of course, my dad is a retired police officer, and I,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: you know, we were just going through you know, how
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: I was raised as a son of a cop, and
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: what my dad said about police. And I've set it
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: up here a million times. You know, my dad number
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: one thing is the police and not your friends. Uh,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: you don't say anything, keep your mouth shut. Uh you know, Um,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: you can always call a lawyer. You can always call
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: your your you know, your your parents, but you never
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: say anything. You know, don't try to weazle your way
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: out of a situation. Just shut the f up, as
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: my dad would always say. And the second thing my
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: dad always says, you gotta make it home. I always
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: talk about, you know, I used to be uh you know,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: when I used to give I get I used to
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: get pulled over a lot. And one time when I
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: got pulled over, my dad was on a speaker phone
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: and I was being an ass to the cop because
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: the cop was being an ass to me. I could
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: just hear my dad yelling streaming, just give them your
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: license and registration. Just give them your license to FF
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: and registration. So when the cop left, my dad was like, look,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if he's right or wrong. Yes, he's
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: absolutely wrong, but at the end of the day, I
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: need you to come home. I need you to make
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: it home. You can't beat him in the street. You can,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: we can beat him when you get home, but you
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: can't beat him in the street. And that just stuck
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: with me, and I tell that to my kids. I mean,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: it's you know, it's not right. But at the end
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: of the day. I want my kids to make it home,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: you know. So, I mean I've talked about that last
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: I will vote. Yeah, that's great advice. The only sad
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: part is we've seen people be polite to police and
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: comply with police and still getting killed or getting beat
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: up or brutalize. So I mean, it's like, you damned
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: if you do your damned if I don't think that
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: the community, I don't think the community relationship, the black
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: community relationship will never be a solid relationship with the
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: police until there is an overwhelming amount of people from
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: our community that are police officers. I actually think that
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: should be one of the community policing incentives, Like they
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: should have financial incentive for people who grew up in
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: a certain neighborhood who decided to go into law enforcement
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: and come back and police said neighborhood, yeah, and they
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: should have a financial incentive to do that. Absolutely also spoke,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: you know, growing up in Queens, I was like, you know,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: it was more community. I remember there was a kid
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: on our block and I talked about this, you know,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: he had down syndrome when we called him the E
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: kid because all he said was and I remember there
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: was an incident one time with the police, and my
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: dad was there and the police came and if my
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: dad wasn't there, I don't know what would happened to
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: that kid because he was had down syndrome. He was aggressive,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: but my dad knew him. So when the cops came out,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Dad I was like, no, I got this, I got this.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: I got this. And my dad was able to call
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: his mom and call his pop and de escalate the
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: situation because he knew the community, he knew the kid,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But if it would have
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: been anybody else, they wouldn't have known it. They wouldn't
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: have known what was going on. If he would attacked,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: it might have shot him. So, like you said, yeah,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: we absolutely positively need more of that in the community.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: And you know, my dad is a Queen's Head. He's
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: from originally from Brooklyn, but when we moved to Queens
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: that's his block. He's not going away. He knows everybody
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: on the block. He knows the kids on the block,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: he knows the elderly people on the block. It's it's that,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: it's what he does. You know, homeboy who's a copy
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: asked me yesterday, he said, how long do I think
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: cops should be in training And I said, it depends.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: I said, you know, if if, if it depends on
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: the play community they're policing. If they're training a community
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: that they're not from, they don't have no you know,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: experience with the training should be longer. If they're going
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: to be policing in the community that they know, the
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: training should be shorter. That's right. That's just my personal opinion.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: And you feel and you feel a little different when
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: your family's in that community, like like like, is my
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: dad gonna do something foul in the community when I'm
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: running around playing as a kid. No, he's he protects
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: that community. He knows his kids and kids kids friends.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: So we talked about that last That will revolve very
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: great conversations. So shout out to Ebony Kay Williams. Did
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: he Charife and everybody on the Revolt team appreciate you guys.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: All right, now, we got a special guest joining us
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: this morning. He did a one on one with this
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: young lady. Yeah, still like Abrams. So you want to
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: explain to people who sil is, Ye, yes, Sillli is
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: women who she's an author and she's an activist and
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: she is also one of the women who was featured
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: on On the Record, that is the documentary about Russell
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Simmons with the women who are accusing him of rape
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: and sexual assault. And she's one of the women that's
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: featured on there, and she's told her story before the documentary,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: and she's told her story and books that she's authored,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: but not said his name until a couple of years ago.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: She has said who the person is, and so we'll
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: get into what made her come forward, what made her
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: say the person who assaulted her is Russell Simmons and
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: say his name, and also why she participated in this documentary,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: what has been the response since then, and why women's
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: voices need to be heard and led. All Right, So
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: we'll speak with her a little bit later. But now
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: we got front page news. What we're talking about. Well,
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: since we talked about the police, let's talk about this police,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: this executive action signing that Donald Trump had yesterday at
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: the White House. All Right, we'll get into that next.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Keep a lot. This the breakfast club, good morning, earning money, envy,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: angela ye, Charlemagne, the gad we are the breakfast club.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: Let's get in some front page news where we starting yet. Well. Yesterday,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump was doing an event in the Rose Garden
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: and he was talking about an executive order that he
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: says creates a federal database of police officers with the
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: history of using excessive force. Now, Donald Trump is against
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: dismantling the police. Here's what he said. Strongly opposed the
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: radical and dangerous efforts to defend, dismantle, and dissolve our
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: police departments, especially now when we've achieved the lowest recorded
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: crime rates in recent history. Without police, there is chaos.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: Without law, there is anarchy, and without safety, there is catastrophe.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Americans believe we must support the brave men and women
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: in blue who police are streets and keep us safe.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Americans also believe we must improve accountability, increase transparency, and
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: invest more resources and police training, recruiting, and community engagement,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: dismantling the police, though the funding is not dismantling. Nobody said,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: we don't want any police. We just want the police
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: to be held accountable when they commit violence against us
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: and kill us. And yes, they don't need them big
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: ass budgets. Take some of that money and put it
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: into the community, nobody said, But some people aren't. Some
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: people are saying to dismantled police department. Some people are
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: calling for I mean, so we can't say no one
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: saying that, Yeah, but that's not what the funding means. Though,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: like he keeps trying to twist the words defunding the police,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: that's not what defunding the police means. For some people,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: they that is what it means. I think it's just
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: you do have to be clear because defund does mean
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: to take away the funds. And some people they look
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: at anybody, Okay. So another thing that he discussed was
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: he said that it's only a small percentage, a bad
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: huss and he talks about why is he signing this
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: executive order because at no point did he address race
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: racism as the issue. But here's what he said. Reducing
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: crime and raising standards are not opposite goals. That is
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: white Today, I'm signing an executive order encouraging police department
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: stationwide to adopt the highest professional standards to serve their communities.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: These standards will be as high and as strong as
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: there is on earth. All Right. The executive void is
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: really nothing to get excited about, I mean, because it's
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: just suggestions. Like I do like some of the things
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: that are in there, like supporting the registry of bad
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: cops and correspondents in mental health case cases. But it's
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: not a bill, it's just suggestions, suggestions. Okay. Now, you
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: also met with the families. He also met with the
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: families of him at Arebury, both m John Antoine Rose,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Jamal Robeson, at Tatiana Jefferson, Michael Dean, Darius Tarver, Cameron Lamb,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: and Everett Palmer. And according to one person who attended,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: they said it was very power full. It took place
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: for an hour before he signed the executive order, and
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: there were a lot of tears in the room. So
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, by the way, before we move on from
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Front page News, she tweeted out, Chump's policing Executive Order
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: is meaningless since to day one, he's used a racially
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: charged rhetoric, all while rolling back efforts to root out
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: racism and policing and virtually abandoning police misconduct investigations. We
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: need real reforms past the Justice and Policing Act. Now,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: she's right, because it's not a bill. It's not a bill.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: You put it in the bill, make the goop passage
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: sign it. Then you got something but those are the
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: executive orders, just suggestions. That's just a whole bunch of
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: pomping circumstance, that's all. He probably just wanted the families
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: in the White House to be able to get a
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: picture with him. To be honest, to me, it looked
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: like he's he cares and he's doing something. Selection season, baby,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: a lot of dreams being sold. Yeah, cars llesman everywhere

• 12:20
  Speaker 1: to know why is it that these cops have to
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: do all these professions that they say they have to do,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: but yet they requires to have limited education in order
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: to perform it. Hair dresses have to go to school
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: longer to get trained before cops and cops are able
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: to take people live why is that how long police academy?
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: The police have to go to academy. They have to
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: go to academy. I know that the doctor has to
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: go to school for seven years to save a life.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: For yet a cops have to go to the academy
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: and they get to kill people. That's okay. How long
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: is academy I don't even know. But yet they have
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: to before they have to be social workers. It's psychia,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: tricks and all these other professions that yet they don't
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: have the education. That's not okay. Get one of sixty
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: credits because they only required to have sixty credits to
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: be a police officer. Yeah, yeah, I was reading something.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: I thought it was this a high school diploma. I
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: was reading something um yesterday and just said, like, it's
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: three years of training in Norway to be a police officer.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Three year three year degree is required to become a
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: police officer in Finland, two years of training to become
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: a police officer in Germany. But in the America you
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: just need a high school diploma in twenty one weeks
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: of training one twenty four weeks of training. It's still
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: a high school diploma. Because I know at one time
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: I thought they moved it up. You need a certain
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: amount of college credits. I'm not sure them. Don't quote me.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: I just looked at up. It says high school diploma
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: is often the minimum form of education required an associates
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: bachelor's a graduate degree. It's rarely mandatory. M d all right,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. If
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: you need to vent, hit us up now. Now we
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: got rooms on the way. Ye yes we do. And
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: we'll be talking about Matt Barnes what he has to
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: say about Kyrie Irving sitting out the NBA season. All Right,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: we'll get into that next keeping lock this to Breakfast Club.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Good morning the Breakfast Club. This is the Rumor Report
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: with Angela Yeast. So, as you know, Kyrie Irving is
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: calling for NBA players to reconsider resuming the season so
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: that players can focus on fighting oppression and so that
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: we don't lose focus. And a lot of people have
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: been critical of that. One person who is critical is
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Matt Barnes. Now, he was on his podcast that he
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: does with Stephen Jackson, and here's what he had to say,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: Kyrie needs to quit, boy, because what I heard was
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: Kyrie wanted to go to Orlando to support his team.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: They didn't let him, so then he flipped the script, talking,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna give up everything. Bro. You can give up
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: everything to go do the Mier morning if you really
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: want to. But at the same time, sitting out without
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: a cause or purpose defeats the purpose, and then it
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: also divides us. I respect people don't want to play
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: because if it's COVID and you're putting your family a risk,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: I get that. But if it's for the movement of
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: the country right now, we have to take charge of it. Yeah,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, I tend to agree with Matt Bonds, like
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: nobody can make me understand why some NBA players think
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: playing would be a distraction from the protest. Like athlete
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: activism has always been a thing. The demonstrations and things
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: you can do before a game, the comments you can
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: make after a game will only highlight what's going on
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: in the streets. And if you're not absolutely playing, If
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: you are not playing, are you about to dedicate your
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: life the full time activism If that's the case, cool,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: If not, I don't get it. And the reference that
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: he had to Maya Moore. Maya Moore is a w
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: NBA star who sat out consecutive seasons to work directly
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: on criminal justice before, and we had talked about that previously.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: She announced that she was missing a second straight season
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: and the Olympics before they were postponed. It's because she
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: was helping her family friend overturn a fifty year prison sentence.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: So she show she dedicated her life, correct, she was
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: on the front Yeah. So so if you dedicate in
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: your life the full time activism, if you're not playing
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: because you want to be out there on the front lines,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: I get it. If not, I don't get it. All right.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: Stacy Dash has officially filed for divorce from her fourth husband,
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Jeffrey Marty. So they were married for two years, almost
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: two years, and she posted the announcement previously. She said,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: my husband and I have made the hard decision of
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: ending our marriage. After much prayer, I feel this is
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: the right path for both of us. I wish him
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: nothing but the best. And you know, she was arrested
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: on domestic battery charges, y'all remember when that happened, But
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: she declared after the state attorney did not press charges
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: against her. So I wonder, what's the longest um, what's
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: the longest lease she's had on a husband two year
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: at least this one, Oh boy, that was the two year.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: Last husband was the two year least. I wonder, what's
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: the longest lease she's ever had on a sheet? Miles?
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: With that? How many miles did she get it per year?
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. I wonder when when did she
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: realize it's time to turn it in and get into one? Right? Well,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: that one's about to be over, fourth one, all right?
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: And Jacole, you know what, I woke up this morning
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: and I saw Jay Cole and Kendrick were trending. I
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: don't understand why. Still, I was trying to figure it out.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, j Cole, I know, he put out a
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: new song and we're gonna play that actually, yes, Snow
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: on the Bluff, and that's his first song of twenty twenty,
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: so you know, he's discussing everything that's been happening. It's
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: interesting because I just interviewed Neo for Lift Service. That
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: episode just came out yesterday, and he was saying, one
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: artist who he really wants to work with right now
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: is Jay Coole, especially to do a song about everything
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: that's happening right now. And Black Lives Matter, and Jay
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Coole just did that himself with Snow on the Bluff,
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: so I think we should play that. And still, yeah,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: we don't appreciate Snow on the Bluff like we should
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: not the actual movie, classic phenomenal film. Man, we do
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: not appreciate that movie like we should. I'm gonna be
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: honest now, I like that. I love Snow on the Bluff.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Everybody should go watch Now on the Bluff at least
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: once in your life. It's kind of like the Hood
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Blair Witch Project. Remember how he didn't ripped. Well, I
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: didn't know if the Blair Which project was real at
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: first because I saw a documentary about it before it aired.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: So I was like, wow, somebody actually was walking around
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: with his camera and captured this footage. I thought that
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: about Snow on the Bluff as well. Well. Shout out
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: to Curtis Snow from Snow and the Bluff. That's right,
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: classic film, you got, Curtis. All right, Well, I'm angela Ye,
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: and that's your realm. More important, let's get into Jacole's
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: new song, Snow on the Bluff Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: angela Ye, Charlomagne, the guy we are to breakfast club.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Let's get in some front page news where we're starting. You, Well,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: let's start which Donald Trump's police perform executive order. What
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: is in it? A new database for police misconduct? He said,
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: They will establish a new national database of police officers
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: with the history of using excessive force, mental health corresponders.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: They are directing the Secretary of Health and Human Services
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: to encourage police departments to embed mental health professionals as
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: corresponders on calls related to mental health, homelessness, and addiction,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: and also directing to help police department find funds to
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: hire this personnel. And banning chokeholds, but technically not really
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: so what they said under this executive order is that
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: chokeholds will be banned except when an officer's life is
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: at risk, and the only police departments that choose to
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: get certified would have to comply with that standard. Yeah,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: because I saw people saying that there is no banning
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: chokeholds initiative in his executive order. Actually saw Maya Harris
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: tweeted that out. But I mean, the executive arder is
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: really nothing to get excited about. It's just suggestions, you know.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: I do like some of those things that are in there,
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: you know, supporting the registry of bad cops. Definitely to
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: respond is in mental health cases. But it's not a bill.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: If you put it in a bill, make the goop passing,
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: and then sign it, then we'll have something to talk about.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: That executive order that is nothing but symbolism. A trust
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: police officers. If you don't know their record, if you
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: don't know that their past, if you don't know if
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: they had previous report, it's like that has to be
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: public knowledge. I mean, if they pull me over, they
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: know my past, they know my history. We should know
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: everybody's history, honestly. Yeah, And you can't say that you're
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: banning choke holds unless you know officer's life. Then you're
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: not really banning choke holds. Correct, it's not really banned.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: All right. Now, let's discuss Ray Shard Brooks. He was
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: killed by an Atlanta police officer outside the Wendy's restaurant
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: after failing a sobriety test. Then he fought with two
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: officers and took a taser from one and ran away. Well,
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: now they are saying, according to the police union president,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: that shooting was justified under Georgia law. So they said
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: the taser is not a deadly weapon when used by
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: a trained individual because a trained individual knows where to
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: aim it, but an untrained individual does not, and then
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: it becomes a deadly weapon at that point. In addition,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: you know, Gayner said that could he carjack somebody? Could
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: he be scared so that he's going to kidnap somebody
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: in another car? Is he going to hurt a civilian.
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of things that come into play that
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: you have to play out. And I am responsible for
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: this person. I was going to arrest and he now
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: has a weapon that I provided him because he took
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: it from me. So they are saying justified, lawful. No,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: there's nothing justified about that killing. I heard so many
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: different things. I heard that, uh, once the taser and
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: maybe I'm wrong, but they said once the tas is discharged,
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: it can't be discharged again. And they said that. I
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: heard that. Then I also heard that, um. I heard
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: that when he was running away they could have It's
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: one of those things where the taser is I guess
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: you have to be within four feet of the person,
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: and it was further than four feet. There's there's so
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: many correlations in different things that I've heard about that
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: you know, But where they fired, I think they resigned
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: one of them reasons. I think I thought one was
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: and the other one was. Yeah, the officer who shot
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: Garrett Rolph was fired after the footage showed him shooting
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: up Brooks small ul times and the other officer, well,
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: the police chief resigned, but the police chief wasn't there,
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: but the police chief did resign. I know officers have
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: multiple weapons on them, why not have a gun with
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: rubber bullets for a situation like that? If you gotta,
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: you know, gun somebody down from the back, why can't
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: you use rubber bullets the same bullets you use on protesters?
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Why does it have to
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: be real bullets? And how do you justify How did
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: somebody you know, snatching your tais and running justify you
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: shooting them in the back and killing them. I don't
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: understand that lot. Well, see that's that's something different than
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: there's no way that that one man should be able
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: to overpower them to police officers and take his weapon.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: But having an additional weapon, that would be a lot
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: because you think about it, I mean, it would look
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: like Rambo. I mean you'd you'd have a real gun,
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: you'd have a gun with bullets. Then you'll have a chaser,
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: and then you have a paton. Like it's kind of like,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: do you want to confuse the costs with all those
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: those choices to shoot me? You giving them giving them
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: police budgets anyway, so they might with that. I want
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: to talk about another start. I don't know if you'all
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: heard this, but this also happened in Georgia, and these
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: moms were pleading with a cop who was holding these
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: kids at gunpoint. The cop was by himself. He had
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: gotten a report that a group of kids had a
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: gun and we're fighting in the stores parking lot. Listen
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: to this, please sar, please go shoot go shoot, shoot, sar. Please.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: And so the moms were pleading with the police officer
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: to put the gun down and to make sure that
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: nothing happened. And it was a group of I think
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: like thirty people that were there just telling the police
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: officer why you got a gun out? They are kids,
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: their kids. So it was a seventeen minute video and
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: they did the children did emit. They were teenagers, that
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: they had a BB gun and they had thrown the
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: gun in the bushes and so, and it resembles a
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: semi automatic pistol. But I don't know what are you
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: do in that situation. I mean, in that situation, you
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: gotta understand, when the police get a phone call at
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: somebody has a gun, they're automatically thinking that somebody has
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: a gun, so they have to make sure that nobody
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: has that weapon. That's why they told them to put
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: their hands up, and that's why he read it for backup,
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: to make sure somebody patted them down. In that situation,
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: when you get a phone call and you say that,
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: that's why you know, when we go back to community people,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: and that's when you know, if somebody in that community
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: like like, oh, Ray Ray, come here, Ray Ray, what
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: you got on? You know what I mean, that's where
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: it comes to that. But when a cop comes to
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: a neighborhood and don't know these kids and they get
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: a call for a gun, I mean, they got to
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: protect themselves as well. In this case. Yeah, but we've
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: seen them get that horribly wrong too. I mean, Rice
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: was a kid, you know what I'm saying, with a
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: toy gun at a park or that. We'll always a
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: time eight. I think I don't know how you're a kid,
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: you know what you're supposed to be twenty. I think
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: sometime this week cops pulled up, just jumped out by't
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: even assessed the situation nothing. They just got to call
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: some kids in the park with a gun and they
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: pulled up shooting. So I don't know, it's complicated, Jesus
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: christ Man. Well, that is your friend. That's made is
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: somebody losing their life. Absolutely well, that is your front
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: page news. I'm Angela Yee. All right, thank you, miss Ye.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Now when we come back, yesterday, Yee had an opportunity
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: to speak with still Alie Abrams. You want to explain
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: what that conversation was about you, Yes, well, Russell Simmons
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: did have a platform to come up here and discuss
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: and defend himself from the accusations against sim and still
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: Lie Abrams is one of the women who has said
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: that Russell Simmons actually she says that he raped her.
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: And so we wanted to make sure that these women
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: also had that equal platform to just say what they
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: have to say and express themselves. So we wanted to
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: make sure we gave Sillye Abrams that platform. So We
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: had a very enlightening discussion on black women, how women
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: are treated, the sexual violence and all of that. All right,
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: we'll get into that next, so don't move. It's to
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Good Morning, the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the God. We all the
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Now we have a special guest, Angela Ye.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: Got a chance to speak with sil Lie Abrams. Yes,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: she was featured on the Record that is a documentary
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: with She's one of the women who's accusing Russell Simmons
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: of assault of rape. Actually in her situation, it was rape,
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: and she talks about her situation and she's going to
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: give you all of this firsthand. We wanted to make
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: sure she had the platform. So here we go. We
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: interviewed Russell Simmons last week and you appeared in the
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: On the Record documentary that's on HBO Max, and we're
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: going to talk all about that. But we did see
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: on social media that you did not appreciate that interview.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: So I do want to give you the platform here
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: to respond to what happens with that Russell Simmons interview
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: and also to be able to have the platform to
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: tell you a story. So let's just get that over
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: with first. You know, I understand that everybody's entitled to
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: tell their story. Everyone's entitled to share their side of things.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: What was incredibly painful for me as a survivor was
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: being silenced for so long and the first time that
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: Russell pops up is on a show with such a
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: reach as The Breakfast Club, and that he was unchallenged
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: essentially throughout the entire interview. And not only was he
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: unchallenged and allowed to perpetuate a lot of very harmful
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: myths around rape and around the women that have accused him,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: but it was very retraumatizing. It was a traumatic experience
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: because we didn't have an opportunity to speak. There's been
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: this huge vortex of silence around the film within the
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: black community, which in large part I believe has been
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: managed and negotiated by him. He's a man with incredible power,
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: and so Russell is the Harvey Wine scene of the
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: hip hop community. He even prior to Harvey being convicted,
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: Harvey had become a pariah because of the multiple allegations
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: by so many different women against him. But those same
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: standards don't apply to our community with r Kelly or
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: anyone else that has perpetuated these types of crimes by
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Bill Casby or Bill Cosby, we ride or dive for
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: them until the end. And I get that. We can
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: get into that later, but just specifically, why I've been
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: so vocal is because there is a tremendous responsibility that
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: comes with having the privilege of the position that your
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: show has, and at times the show hasn't done right
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: by the community that it says it long and so
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: in this case, it was it was just wrong. It
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: was just like it was just not a good look
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: and it was painful. Well, I will say this, as
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: soon as HBO reached out to me to have the
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: women from on the record on the show, I responded
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: immediately and said absolutely. And that was the first time
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: anyone had reached out to me. And so because I
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: had done I may destroy you a campaign with that
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: with them, they had my information and hit me up directly,
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: and so as soon as I was asked, there was
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: no question. So I believe that I would say the
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Breakfast Club is not perfect, as I don't feel like
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: any platform gets it right all the time. But I
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: know and I can speak I think on behalf of
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: all of us that you know, we do try to
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: make sure that we uplift our community in many different ways,
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: and if things are triggering, I do apologize for that
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: because that's never my intention for that to happen. And
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: so that's why I want to make sure and I
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: would have given you this space regardless if that interview
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: happened or not. It was just that the way that
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: it works. It's not that we reached out to anyone
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: for an interview. People reach out to us normally, and
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: that's usually how interviews are booked, and so you know,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: and you're right, like I do feel like the documentary.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: I reported on it multiple times. I played the trailer
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: you know, in my roomor report, and we talked about
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Oprah when she signed on to do it, we talked
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: about it when she decided not to do it, and
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: then when it got picked up by HBO Max. So
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: while I do feel like a lot of platforms hadn't
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: been even covering that this documentary happened, it was something
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: that we have discussed and I have put in my
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: roomor report as things unraveled. So I just want to
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: put that out there for you, and I do want
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: to talk about that, since you brought it up with
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: the documentary, just what happened with Oprah, because we've heard
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: that she felt like the stories were conflicting and she
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: couldn't sign on. She does believe the women, she said,
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: but you feel like they were too many contradictions. So
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: can you, from your own space talk about what happened
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: before I go there, I just want to say that,
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: according to our side, there was outreach that began at
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: the top of May. Now whether or not that went
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: from the specific booker at your show, I don't know
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: how many bookers there are, I don't know, but I
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: know that the outreach had begun because we all know
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: if there is a film anything of any import, people
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: want to go on the Breakfast Club to talk about it.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: We know if we want to reach Black America, you
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: come here, which is why Joe Biden comes on here
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: presidential nominee. So yeah, I just wanted to touch on
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: that because there might be a little miscommunication there. But
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: as far as Oprah's pulling out, there was a lot
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: of reporting around the drama on that preceded the release
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: of the film, and I get it. It's tantalizing people
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: want to know, Oh, well, what's going on. Oprah said
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: that there's some inconsistencies with this person. And you've got
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: a campaign that's happening with fifty seven and Russell Simmons's
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: operating on social media and people. You've got people from
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: other communities who are just diving in saying this is
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: just another attempt to take out a black man and
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: we can't let this happen. But all of this is occurring,
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: and people are forgetting Hello, there are survivors involved here,
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: and we're collateral damage. And so Oprah choosing to step back,
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: that's her prerogative. I wasn't in the room. She stayed
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: it in the New York Times. She said on TV
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: her issue would created differences period. She also said that
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: she believed us, and so I believe that she has
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: a right to do whatever she wants with her money
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: and with her platform. I also think it's incredibly disingenuous
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: for Russell to come on the show last week and
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: start to invoke Oprah like, oh oh, oh, Oprah, She's
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: so wonderful, when Oprah straight up just said nah, like
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: you had nothing to do with this, Like your whatever
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: you're saying to try and imply that Oprah is co
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: signing you. That's not fair because you also know Miss
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: Oprah Winfrey is not going to come back out to
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: relitigate something that's in the past. That's irrelevant. What's important
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: is the fact that I saw one article for an
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: Okay player, a tweet about how our film almost became
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: an urban legend, one of those. And really it's been
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: this very skittish road to get here because of the
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: fact that there has been so much controversy. So it
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: wasn't painful. Yeah, the whole damn experience has been painful
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: since I chose to come forward, going back in twenty seventeen.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: But that is the price that survivors pay when they
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: choose to tell their stories, irrespective of how powerful their
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: perpetrator is. All right, when we come back, we got
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: more with sil Lie Abrams, so don't move. It's to
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela, Yee,
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club. Were still
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: speaking with Abrams. Angela, you got a chance to speak
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: with her yesterday. Let's get back into the interview and
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: you can see the documentary on the record on HBO Max. Now,
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: you know what I've read a lot about what you've
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: been through and how Joyanne Reid was supposed to interview you,
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: and you had given her your story which she was writing,
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: and she was doing to sit down an interview with you,
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: and you had to provide all kinds of receipts to
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: improve that what you said happened to you did indeed happen,
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: and then the story never ended up going on air,
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: and I know that had to be difficult. And then
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: you know, we're talking about your son sitting next to you,
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: and that was one of the most heartbreaking scenes. Was
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: and I don't even want to bring things up, but
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: I know for people who haven't seen it that are
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: listening right now, you know you did detail having to
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: be taken to the hospital and kissing her son goodbye
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: because you didn't even want to be here anymore after
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: that happened. Was that the first time he had heard
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: about that. It was the first time that he knew
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: the details. And that's the thing that, let me be clear,
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: I didn't tell. I mean I told there were people
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: who were present that day immediately after the assault, people
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: from Russell's camp that came to be with my son.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: There are people that my friends that took me to
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: the hospital, and I never thought that it would go
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: further than that. You know what, mother wants to tell
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: their child about something that painful, something that I still
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: have a lot of mixed feelings about. But you know what,
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: sexual violence not only impacts the individual who is hurt,
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: it impacts their families. You know, when we talk about
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: the restorative justice model or the transformative justice model, the
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: first thing that has to occur is for a perpetrator
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: to acknowledge the harm that they've done, not only to
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: the victim, but to the victim's family, to the community,
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: and to the society at large. And you cannot even
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: begin a dialogue of healing without first having accountability. That's
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: what's missing in this is that Russell did apologize to
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: me at Mumba a couple of years later, and this
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: is detail in the Hollywood Reporter piece. He did he
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: change person now? Right? He said he's changed, and he
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: was alluding to being fully sober and also I guess
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: having a different mindset around what consent is, I guess,
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: But he happened to be having dinner with Donald Trump,
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: you know, I mean so it's like and I just
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: stopped him. I was just like, first off, he blindsided
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: me because my sister had died of a drug overdose
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: a couple months before. That's what he approached me to say,
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I heard about your sister. I just she
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: Melee was a really good girl. And I was so raw,
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: like you could have knocked me over. And I was
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: just so glad someone, anyone would acknowledge that my sister
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: died of a drug overdose because nobody wants to talk
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: about that. Had he not started with my sister, I
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: would have walked away. I had nothing to say. But
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: your question encompassed a lot. You mentioned joy read and
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not going to guess why, but
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: I'll say that my story was vetted, it went through
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: it passed standers and practices at NBC. I have receipts.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: It was just NBC, as we saw with Ronning Pharaoh
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: and other stories. They have their own ongoing issues within
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: that news organization of how they handle sexual harassment and
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: misconduct and Russell's attorneys strong arms, and I mean it
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: went all the way to the top, to the head
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: of the news divisions and of the company so that's
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: the power he has to shut something down. And so
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: when by the time I finally to the Hollywood Reporter,
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: the story morphed and it became one that was about
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: how of me too story is killed? And that's what's unfortunate,
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: is that it no longer becomes something linear. Is well,
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: why did you come forward? You know everyone came out
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: in November December, and here it is June, almost July,
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: and now your story is breaking. Well, it's not my fault.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: It's because I got hemmed up. But the Hollywood Reporter
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: had all the access to all of the same information
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: that NBC did, and yes, they were pressured by Russell's
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: attorneys and they ran it. They ran it and there
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: has not been any civil suit. And to Russell's point
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: last week, I've never filed the civil suit. I never
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: wanted anything from him. But what I will not do
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: is be complicit in silencing survivors, nor will I be silenced.
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: Think about it. The privilege that I have, the many
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: levels of privilege that I have, of the relationships within
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: the industry, of having a certain attorney, all this stuff
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: that I have at my disposal is what allowed my
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: story to end up being published after it was killed
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: by one news outlet. And you know how it works.
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: When your story gets squashed at one news outlet, the
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: bar is set double as high to get published that
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: with another one. And so again, I keep thinking about
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: all of rape is a crime that happens in private.
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: It happens in the private sphere, but it's litigated often
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: in the public, and so many victims don't have receipts right,
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: And I think people are awesome mistakenly think that because
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: you cannot get convicted right after getting a kised. But
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: that doesn't necessarily mean it didn't happen. A lot of
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: people will say, well, the charges got drapped or it
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: didn't happen, and a lot of times that doesn't necessarily
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: mean the person is innocent. You know that we as
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: a people know that police brutality committed against black people
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: is an epidemic. We know even if the media doesn't
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: report on it, which it hasn't forever. It's only now
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: because we have our own cameras and making the news
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: through social media that people are really starting to see
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: the extent of the harm that's been done to us
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: for centuries. We know what happens to our people because
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: we know how corrupt the system is and it's stacked
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: against us, So we don't question when police brutality occurs,
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: we accepted as truth. But when a black woman says
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: that she's been sexually violated, and when you look at
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: all the statistics we know it's a global women's health epidemic,
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: it's all of a sudden, Well, you know, she's lying,
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: she wants something, she's a hole, she was drunk. All
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: of these rapemisters employed, and I'm like, this is why
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: I think, in the middle of the movement for black
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: lives that's occurring, why the death of toy In Salow
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: just hits right at that intersection of what we're talking
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: about about a black woman speaking up and using her
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: voice on a platform like social media to talk about
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: the fact that she had been assaulted, and then the
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: very person who she trusted to provide her some type
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: of care ends up hurting her and then her body
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: is discovered. There are parallels that exist in many women's
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: lives where we know that the majority of crimes happened
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: between people who know each other, whether it's domestic violence
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: or intimate partner abuse, and especially rape and sexual assault
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: all right, well, old move, we got more with sil
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: Lie Abrams. It's the Breakfast Club. Good Morning Morning, everybody
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the Gay We are
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Now yesterday, Angela Yee got a chance
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: to kick it with sil Lie Abrams. Yes sel Lia
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: Abrams has accused the Russell Simmons of rape and you
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: get to hear what happened to her firsthand. And she's
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: also featured on the record, which is on HBO. Max
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: has been can rape their wives. Some people don't feel
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: like that's even possible, right, They were like, well, you're married,
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: so that can't happen. But the truth of the matter
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: is I know women who will tell you that they've
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: been raped by their husband. And then I think when
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: that happens, it's difficult to speak up because you feel ashamed.
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: You also know that people will say, well, you know,
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: you guys are married, so if you you've already had sex,
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: you already have kids, Like, I don't see how that's
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: even possible. But then when you hear the violence that occurred,
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: and I think, especially when it happens to somebody you know,
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: I think we all know a woman or women, multiple
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: women who who have been sexually assaulted and will never
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: speak up about it or never tell this story. I
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: can't think of too many people who don't have a
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: story to tell. Certain people who have questioned me because
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: Russell and I had dated before I look, I put
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: it all out on the table. I had to say
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: that he and I had Kis it right? Consentually creates me? Yeah,
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: it had, you had a boyfriend, it ended, and we
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: were supposed to be friends forever, according to him. And
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: so like last week when he's talking about all his friends,
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: how he's still friends with all these women, I might, well,
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: I was your friend. I trusted you, and now we're
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: not friends because you violated me and you destroyed our friendship.
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: And that is something that it's still hard to wrap
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: your head around. You know, years later, I think about
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: my time working in entertainment and in media, and I
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: think hearing all of the horror stories to your point
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: that many women share privately but will never share publicly.
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: I'm lucky it was only two men. When you think
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: about all of the allegations that have come up, and
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: all of the conversations and the whisper talks that we
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: have amongst each other where we don't come forward and
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: talk about what's really going down in the industry, right,
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: and how nobody is holding the perpetrators accountable. And that's
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: where I think that media outlets, by at least providing
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: an opportunity to hear the voices of survivors, can level
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: the field. How does it fail then that people still
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: legally have to say allegations because as you know, Restsell
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: Simmons is saying he took a lot of detective tests,
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: he hasn't been charged with anything, and so legally it
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: still is considered allegations. And that others the to you
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: to have. How many women have come forward so far?
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: I mean it depends upon what you're talking about. I
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: believe it's six or seven who publicly accused him of rape,
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: and then the rest are various forms of sexual misconduct
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: and harassment, which I guess in total is twenty. I mean,
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: as far as allegations, news media has got to cover
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: their behind, right, So legally, you can't get sued if
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: you eat, don't ry allegedly allegedly, right, And so you know,
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: I have accused him publicly of assault, and so I
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: don't have an issue with the fact that people say allegations.
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: What I have a problem with is when your identity
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: as a survivor becomes secondary to that of your perpetrator
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: simply because he is famous, even around everything that happened
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: last week, it was, you know, Russell Simmons rape accuser
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: last breakfast club, and I'm like, I have a name,
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: and if you go back, I have an identity, I
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: have professional bona fides. I'm not just an accuser. Don't
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: minimize and marginalize me and tie me into the headline
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: of who this man is. Because that was a big
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: part of my decision not to include his name in
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: my first book, because I explicitly outline what happened. But
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: I gave a pseudonym in the book because I never
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: wanted because I'm painfully aware that there are people who
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: think that the reason why I've achieved any type of
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: success is because of the way that I look. And
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: let's be real, I have certain privileges that have helped
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: make things easier. But you don't stay in the game
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: just because you look cute. You've got to actually be
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: able to bring something to the table. You have to
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: know your as they say, and so with respect to
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: my identity getting erased and all survivors getting erased. Like,
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: I get it. It happens to people. I see it
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: all the time. I'm just very sensitive to it because
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: I remember the night before my story dropped, I went
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: on Google and I screenshot. I did a search and
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: I screenshot my name, and it was like, rest in
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: peace to sly Abrams, nationally recognized domestic violence awareness activists,
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: because henceforth you're going to be known as a woman
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: who accused Russell Simmons of great And that's nothing that
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: I ever wanted. I didn't want my work to be
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: built around the identity of a man that had hurt me.
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: I did not want, and certainly not as a feminist.
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: I certainly was not going to try par lay this
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: into any type of what did he say? He said
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: last week? He said, to be famous or infamous? Who
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: the hell wants to be infamous or not? For that?
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: What do you win? What could Russell do? Now? Is
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: there anything? I want accountability? If we're not able to
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: navigate the criminal justice system, because what happened between us
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: is outside of the statute of limitations. And to be
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: very clear, like, let me bring you back. I chose
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: not to press charges at the time because I was
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: drunk that night, because of the fact that he and
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: I did have a prior sexual relationship, and because I
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: was terrified because of the imbalanced empower and money between
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: us and what happened in the examination room. So I
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: was scared. Now today, as a woman who is going
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: to be turning fifty in a month, what does the
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: grown ask woman want? What I want is a chance
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: to begin restorative justice. I want Russell to actually stop
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: the pantomime of being an innocent and truly acknowledge the
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: harm that he's done and then start to make the
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: amends to the individuals and the community that he continues
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: to harm by peddling mistruth that he ends up contradicting
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: himself on. So, like, just pointing to the interview last week,
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: he said that he misinterpreted what happened with Jenny, right,
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, dude, you just said in essence that
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: you raped her, Like that's what you said, right, I mean,
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: I guess I got my signals crossed. Well, if Jenny
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: says it wasn't consensual and you don't know what consent is,
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: well I'm sorry that right, there was an admission of
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: some sort, even in the case of me, a drunk
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: woman can't consent, right. It's my hope that having this
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: conversation is an opportunity, to your point, to try and
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: shift the needle and get something right. By us having
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: this dialogue on the heels of what happened last week,
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: at least there's some contexts. And I can't speak for
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: the other survivors, but I can say that I am
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: appreciative of this conversation and of this opportunity because you
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: all have tremendous power and you help shape culture, but
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: there are parts of our culture that absolutely have to change.
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: And letting people come on and not be interrogated on
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: their behavior, that's not cool. That's not going to bring
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: about any liberation. That's not black love. That's not accountability.
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: And when you love someone, you hold them accountable. So
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: I do appreciate you for taking the time to come
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: on this platform. I know you are on the board
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: for the National Domestic Violence Hetline, and you were on
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: the board for a Safe Horizon, So just so people
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: know that there are safe spaces that they can go
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: to if they do need to seek out help and support, absolutely,
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: and they call the Sexual Assault the National You can
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: contact Brain as well, which is a national sexual assault hotline.
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: I mean urban times where I've just picked up and
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: called either one. I called Safe Horizon not too long
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: ago and just said I need to talk because the
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: pressure of being of going through something like this, I
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: just need to anonymously speak to someone and just say
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: this is really hard. I'm having a hard time handling this.
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: And it's been twenty five years, right, but so much appreciated,
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: and we will definitely make sure we stay in touching.
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: If you need our platform, make sure you let me know.
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: All right, thank you, thank you, Sail Abrahams. All right,
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: take care boarding. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: the guy. We all to Breakfast Club. Let's get to
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: the rooms. Let's talk Will Smith. Okay, are you ready
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: to watch the bulls Smith? It's about Angela Ye, the
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Okay, are you ready to watch the bus.
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: Smith's starting a new movie as a runaway slave. Why not?
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: It's Will Smith. Will Smith gets busy on that screen. Well,
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: the new movie is called Emancipation. It'll be directed by
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: Antoine foo Quads, based on a true story, and Will
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: Smith is playing Peter, a runaway slave for us to
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: flee and outwit slave hunters on his journey to the
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: Union Army and his only chance of freedom. Now I've
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: said I'm a record saying I'm tired of seeing slave more. Yes,
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: you are, only because only because they show us, you know,
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: being the victims all the time, which we were. But
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: I'm intrigued about this one because it's based off that
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: classic picture we always see with the brothers showing the
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: whelps on his back. Right, if I'm not mistaken, I
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: think I read that yesterday. I'm interested. All right, Well,
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: that production is going to start early in twenty twenty one. Now.
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: Will Smith is also starring in a Father's Day documentary
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: called Dads alongside Keenan Thompson, and it will be available
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: on an Apple TV Plus June nineteen. More stories of
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: black liberation that don't have to do with slavery. But yeah,
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: all right, speaking of Dads, let's talk about Deja Harris.
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: And you know, I actually was watching Ti and Tiny
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: Friends and Family Hustle and this is the hymen Gate
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: episode where ti it is comments about taking his daughter
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: to the gynecologists and making sure that her hyman is
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: still intact. Well, here is what Deja had to say
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: she found out while they were on vacation in Mexico.
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: My heart sank very shocked, hurt, angry, embarrassed by be
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: honest for real, that he goes to the Ghyana coologists
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: with you to make sure that you're feel aversion. Yeah,
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: he goes, Well, what we want you to do is
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: talk to him about it. Man, I'm not gonna be
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: able to really get through to him like connect here. Yeah.
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: He always plays big, honestly, So like, are you angry?
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: I just don't really care to be around him right now.
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: Do you feel like this is not going to put
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: a frame over it? Come on, No, this situation is
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: just a little traumatizing for me. Yeah. I hate the
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: fact that she has to relive that, you know, especially
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: being as she said it was traumatic. I'm sure it was.
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: So I hate to see people have to relive trauma. Yeah,
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: And there's a certain conversations in a certain situations you
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: just want to keep in the household, you know. And
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: I blazed a lot with my daughter too, and you
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: know what too, I was watching it and I did
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: feel real like she was, you know, breaking down about
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: to cry, and he didn't really want to like apologize
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: or approach her about it and ruining the trip and
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: things like that, so it was very difficult to watch. Yeah,
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: I just don't want my daughter's him and to be
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: your entertainment, because that's what it turns out to be, right, Like,
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: even if you're even if if Tip had the best intentions,
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: which I'm sure he did, it still ends up being
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: somebody's entertainment because it's on television, you know what I mean. Yeah, Well,
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: that's what happens when you have a show and you
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: talk about your family and your life so much, but
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: you sometimes you don't realize you know, well you do
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: realize what's going to be, you know, really hurt your
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: daughter's feelings, you know what I mean. I've been through
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: that too with my daughter. I said some stuff that
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: my daughter didn't like and I had to have a
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: conversation and apologize to it. It is a process being
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: having daughters. I got three daughters. Having daughters is like
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: having a landmine, right because you don't know when you
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: might step. It caused them them to blow up, and
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: it's not like it was your intention, you know, it's like,
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: oh my god, you know right, and you know, and
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: I said this at the time. I think as a
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: young as a woman, and I know when I was
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: a young girl. You know where you are very there's
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: a lot to do with women's bodies, and you don't
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: want to be invasive over things like that because I
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: can't affect somebody forever. So it's just really important to
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: listen to women. Listen to what your daughters have to say,
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: and make them feel empowered and let them know their
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: body is their body and they control that. And have trust.
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: You know, you have to be able to trust that
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: you raise your daughters in the right way and that
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: they'll make smart decisions when you're not around and you
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: don't have to check their hymen. All right, I'm angela
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: yee and that is your christ Oh my god. Yes,
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: well all right, all right, we'll give me a donkey.
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: We need Vice President Mike Pence to come to the
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: front of the congregation. We like to have a world
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: with them. I and also ask ye it don't drip
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: five five one or five one. If you need relationship advice,
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: you and hit e right now with the Breakfast Club.
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: Good morning, Charlemaine say the gang. Don't get out a
• 59:05

• 59:17
  Speaker 1: Donkey man, give it with the eyes the breakfast club bitch.
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: I just don't give Today today. Donkia Today for Wednesday,
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: June seventeenth, goes to the leader of the Trump Administration's
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: coronavirus task for us, the Vice President and worst sidekick
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: since Aquaman had Aqua Girl, Mike Pince. Oh. Yes, I
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: come from the era of Aquaman being highly uncool, not
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: the Lisa Bonaide and Niece Huxtable husband version y'all have now.
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: I come from the era of Aquaman being a laughing
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: stock and having a sidekick named Aqua Girl who was
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: killed off in a mini series called Crisis on Infinite Earth,
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: and ironically, Aqua Girl drowned. You know how trash you
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: have to be if your only superpower is being able
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: to breathe on the water and you die by drowning.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: Were you ever really a superhero? Anyway? Google it so
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: you can see how trash and pathetic her character was,
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: and you won't understand why Mike Pence is the worst
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: sidekick since Akua Girl. Now, Donald Trump is having a
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: clan rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, this weekend, the twenty if
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: our belief the rallies are a big part of Trump
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: galvanizing support. He goes out, He tries his new stand
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: up routine for the MAGA crowd, makes a few jokes,
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: tells a lot of lies, hands out a few false promises,
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 1: and asked to see you in November at the polls. Well,
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: that disease they keep down playing COVID last name nineteen
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: because put a halt to a lot of those rallies.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: So Trump has to get back out there and rally
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: the clan okay, or the first one since the pandemic
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: happened is this weekend in Oklahoma, and people want to
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: know is it safe? How do you social distance at
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: a clan rally? Now? Mask or optional? All right? Even
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: the hooded ones at Trump's rally, which confuses the hell
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: out of me because I've been told one of the
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: main ways to stop transmission of the viruses to wear
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: a mask. Okay, what does the Trump administration have against
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: wearing masks? Mask are actually great for the Trump administration
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: number one. The magamask would not only be insanely popular
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: and a best seller. It's so much easier to lie
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: with a mask on because people can't see your face
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: being able to read facial expressions to detect lies. A
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: magamask will cover that up. A magamask will hide that
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: false smile. Donald Trump, does you know that false smile?
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: He does just with his mouth and nothing else moves.
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: Magamask hide that. Magamask could hide the fact that sometimes
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: people push their lips to counteract the dry mouth that
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: comes with lying. Okay, sometimes people blush when they're lying.
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump does it all the time. That's why he
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: turns bright orange. Magamask will cover all of that. Okay.
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 1: A magamask will keep us from reading Trump's facial expressions
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: when he lies. So why are they against mask at
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: his rallies? I have no idea. Now, clearly people don't
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: feel safe about attending this rally for obvious coronavirus virus
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: related reasons. So Mike Pinch, being the Jenkie concert promoter
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: that he is, decided to do what most Jenkie concert
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: promoters do, and that's lie to make people feel comfortable
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: enough to come. Now, Mike pinch Told reported on Monday
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: afternoon that numbers for the virus in Oklahoma had declined.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: In fact, he didn't just say declined. He used the
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: word I have never heard Ti R. Stephen A. Smith used,
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: And that word is precipitously. Did I pronounced that right,
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: ANGELI ye, precipitously sounds right. Well, you asked me please precipitously.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 1: All right, Let's listen to what Mike pins had to say.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: President and I both spoken to Governor Kevin Stood in
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: the last several days and even earlier today. And Oklahoma
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: has really been in the forefront of our efforts to
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: slow the spread, and in a very real sense, they
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: flattened the curve. And today their hospital capacity is abundant.
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: The number of cases in Oklahoma's declined precipitously, and we
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 1: feel very confident going forward. Now. Precipitously means very steeply,
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: so it's really really, really declined. Huh. Well, you know what.
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: The celebrity and a chief, Donald Trump, didn't use the
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: word precipitous sleep I had too big a word for him,
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: but he said basically the same thing. Let's listen, Well,
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma has done very well. I just spoke to the governor.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: He's very excited about it. Oklahoma is at a very
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: low number. They've done really fantastic work. But Oklahoma has
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: been a place that I think one of the reasons
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: we chose it is because of how well that because
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: it's early, because of what a great job the governor
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 1: and everybody else has done in Oklahoma. Okay, both Mike
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: Pence and Donald Trump say it is all good in Oklahoma.
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 1: For their clan rally Maska optional including your hooded ones.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: What they said this about coronavirus declining steeply on Monday, Well,
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: what is the actual coronavirus forecast in Oklahoma? What is
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: actually going on with coronavirus in Oklahoma? For asking one
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: simple question, here have cases in Oklahoma declined precipitously. Let's
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: go to Koco ABC file for the report police. In fact,
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: cases have done just the opposite. Another record increase today,
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: the one week average now higher than it was back
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 1: when the outbreak first peaked, some suggesting could this be
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: because of more testing. In fact, total testing is down
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: over the past two weeks compared to the two weeks before.
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: Just listen to that. The same day, Mike pinchon Donald
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: Trump said that Oklahoma is declining steeply. I'm tired of
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: pronouncing precipitously. Tosa County sees highest single day increase in
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 1: coronavirus cases since the pandemic began. Pinch and Trump absolutely
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: need to wear a mask, not just to spread, not
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 1: just to stop the transmission of the virus, but to
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: hide their lying ass facial expressions. Okay, America is on autopilot.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: We've been on autopilot. We just freestyle, and this is
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: a game of rhyme antics. Whatever the last word is
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: that was uttered, find a way to freestyle it. I
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: don't care if it was Corona police brutality protests. Now
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: back to Corona. Just pick a word and find something
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: that rhymes with it. I am tired, Okay, I don't
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: know what to do in regard the Corona. I am confused.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: I envy folks who are yolo with it. I envy
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: folks who don't believe in it and think it's a
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: conspiracy theory and just be throwing caution to the win
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: and just be out chair. When I'm not one of
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: those people, I'm still in the house. Okay. The way
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: my anxiety is set up. The whole family is still quarantine.
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: We might venture out towards the end of this month
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 1: to go to another state where coronavirus cases of spiking,
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 1: and that's South Carolina, But I don't know. All I
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: would tell Oklahoma in every place where cases of spiking
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: is this simple advice given to me by every older
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: black person in my license I was a child. Never

• 1:07:28
  Speaker 1: when we moved. She's in the military. We moved to
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: another state and au gusts. That's when we split up.
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: Divorce was done in October and then last week I
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: found out that she moved in a guy in December
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: to live with her and my kids. And I just
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: found it out last week. I found out by um
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 1: because in our divorce years uh uh, and I decreed
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 1: that basically, when you were in a relationship or you
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: starting one, that one the background chick gotta be sent
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: and we post to meet the person, not approve of them,
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: but just to meet the person. And basically, come December,
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: I saw a picture of hers and one of my
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: people sent me one of her Facebook posts of her
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 1: taking a picture with a god, and then my kids
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: were taking a picture in the same area. So I asked,
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: I said, is this guy but you got a guy
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: around my kids? I haven't met him, and she was like, well, yeah,
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 1: that's my fault. It was my birthday. I wanted to
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 1: do that, whatever, whatever, And I'm like, okay. Then we
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 1: moved on. Two days after that, I go on her
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: page and then go look at his page on Facebook
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: and see that he's taking pictures around her house. And
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 1: then I asked her two days later, as this guy
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: stand with you, and she's finally gonna sit that miss
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: that the guys staying there. Then when this prandemic hits.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: Because I'm working, I decided not to be around my
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 1: kids because I used to have my on the weekend.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: I was like, no, she's in the military and she's
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 1: not working. They super quarantine, that's what I'm thinking. But
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: find out last week there's a man living in the
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: house with my kids who's going to work. And she
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: didn't say not one word to me. Wow, that's really
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: really disrespectful. Yeah, I don't know what other way. I don't.
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 1: I don't know what to do because if that was
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: the shoe was on the other foot, or I would
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 1: be all up in court. As soon as I found
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: out that the guy even was around my kids. I
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 1: met him eight SAP, with him five minutes. I can't
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 1: say you've mad hand now, Oh yeah, I'm at him.
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: I wasn't mad at him because it wasn't his fault.
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 1: And guy didn't even know that. Guy didn't even know
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: that I didn't know. He was like, broy even though
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 1: you didn't know I was there. But she with him
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 1: for a while before she moved him in. I do
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 1: not even know. So legally, if you wanted to, legally
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 1: you could you could take her to court for this does,
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: and that's what I gotta like. My my people was like, yeah,
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: the lord's just gonna take your money. N I mean, look,
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 1: so how do you so? Okay? So you don't have
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 1: a problem with the guy. You just don't like the
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: fact that she didn't follow what y'all had agreed upon. Yeah,
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 1: she did not follow me leaving the person. That's all
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: I want to do. And I met him, I told him,
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 1: I deal, he agreed those ope issues. Well, at this point,
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 1: you don't want to take her to court. You don't
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: want to pay a lawyer and do all of those
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: things and make this that type of situation. But she
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: is definitely dead wrong and you need to express to her.
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 1: Look at this point right now, you've done what you did,
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 1: but this was not what our agreement was, and I'm
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: not comfortable with how you went about things, and you
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: need to have a conversation about that so that in
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 1: the future she's respectful of what she needs to do
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 1: as somebody who you know, you are a parent to
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 1: those children as well, so you guys have shared responsibilities
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: and because you are respectful to what you guys agreed upon,
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: she needs to respect that as well. And you need
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: to make sure I'm moving forward, because the main thing
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 1: I would think is the children, right, It's not really
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: about her. It's about you making sure your children are
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: safe and that you know what's going on in their lives,
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 1: and you need to let her know that. No, and
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 1: I've done that. My saying is that this is not
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 1: like the first Foot incident, that you just do what
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 1: you want. The problem is that you do whatever you
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 1: want that zero consequence maybe, but this is something that
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: you need to just make sure that you document so
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: that in the future and let her not be like, look,
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: I am documenting these things and the next time that
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: something like this happens, I will take you to court.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: She's the most farder call a first hurt. Hopefully they
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: I mean that Scar's military PY for some reason. I
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: don't know why I would consult with the lawyer, not
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: that you're gonna take it to court right now, just
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 1: so that you know what your options are, and then
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: if there's some way that you can go on the
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: record so that you have all of these things, even
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 1: if you send her an email just detailing everything and
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 1: letting her know I have an issue with you violating
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: what our agreement was these are the things that you did,
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: and I'm giving you right now warning that if you
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 1: do something else without following what we agreed upon, then
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 1: I will pursue a legal recourse. I would do that
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 1: so that you that way, you have documented, and that
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: if she does something else, she knows that there will
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 1: be some repercussions, because it feels like there's no repercussions,
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 1: so she's just going rogue. Yah. All right, good luck,
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 1: Thank you brother. All Right, ask ye eight hundred five
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: eighty five one oh five one if you need relationship advice, hee,

• 1:12:39
  Speaker 1: you almost said your name. I'm just joking. I'm just joking, man.
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: What's your question for you? Bro? All right? I'm I'm
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: I'm a male about thirty three years old. UM. I
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 1: was in a situation I was listening to Miss Abrams
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 1: this morning to live and you know she had been
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 1: in a situation where she you know, she was intoxicated
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 1: and and taking advantage of allegedly. And I had the
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 1: same situation happened to me and I got a child
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 1: by the mom and uh, I never I never, well,
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: I spoke about it to people in my circle. Even
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 1: my wife, she doesn't, you know, never believe me. I
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: mean she kind of takes it lightly. Um. You know,
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: men men being raped, just as you know, heard of
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 1: a lot. And I was just wondering, like what could
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 1: I do. It's been since twenty and twelve, and I
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 1: was just wondering what could I do in that situation.
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 1: Like I never wanted to you know, trust charges or anything.
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: And I was intacticated, possibly drugged, I'm not sure, you know,
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 1: but I just kind of let it go, especially with
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: me having a child. Um, it's just something that's always
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: stuck with me. You know what. I think that it
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 1: is important for you to be able to express yourself
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 1: because yes, this can happen and does happen to men
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 1: as well. And I do feel like there are spaces
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 1: that you can go to to speak your truth. That's
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 1: a safe space so that you can't express yourself and
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 1: that's important to be able to do. Like a safe
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 1: horizon is someplace that you could um actually go to. Also,
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: rain r AI n N, you should speak with them.
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: That's the nation's largest anti sexual violence organization, and they're
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 1: available by phone, they're available online. You can talk to
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: them also. And it is so important for you to
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 1: be able to express yourself and get the proper tools
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 1: that you'll need because you don't even know how this
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: is affecting you, right, Okay, okay, I got so look
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 1: at that brain dot org that's r ai nn dot org.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 1: Because I want to make sure you have the proper
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 1: tools to deal with this and to be able to
• 1:14:36

• 1:15:03
  Speaker 1: salalized interview and I'm glad that you felt empowered enough

• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: hope a lot was. I was intoxicated, right, It's not
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 1: your fault whether you nobody should do that to you
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 1: if a person is not in the state of mind
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: to be able to give consent, and that is rape
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 1: for sure. For sure, I hope a lot more. You know,

• 1:15:52
  Speaker 1: ask ye Now we got rumors on the way, yes,
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 1: and we'll be talking about Lacrex. He has some things
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: there he wants to get off his chest about the
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 1: end that he did earlier this week. All right, we'll
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 1: get into that next. Keep a lot this to Breakfast Club.
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Wanting everybody a CJ Envy,
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we all the Breakfast Club.
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 1: Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Lacreix's filling the team.
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 1: This is the rumor report with Angela Yee on the
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. So Lacre ended up having a conversation with
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 1: the pastor Louis Giglio. I don't know how you say
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 1: his name, Giglio Giglio, And people were very uncomfortable with
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 1: him in that interview when these comments were made about
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 1: slavery being a white blessing. People thought that he was
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 1: okay with it because he was sitting there and kind
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 1: of nodding. Well, since then, LACRAI has this to say.
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 1: First of all, I want you to know I wasn't
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 1: okay with it. Even as I sat there, I was
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: very uncomfortable and I was processing on like, man, how
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 1: do I what do I say? In light of this?
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 1: Um I ended up in a conversation with him subsequently,
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 1: you know, right after we talked, and then I talked
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 1: to him again last night and let him know my
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: views and my perspectives, and obviously I wasn't okay with it,
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 1: and we can't just be virtue signal and doing this
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 1: because it's the end thing to do to talk about
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 1: race on platforms. And I didn't have any Ontario motives
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 1: other than to, you know, help and articulate, you know,
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 1: some of what's going on in our world and in
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 1: our culture. Now. I know y'all wanted to create a
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 1: challenge that guy on that, But the only thing to
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 1: be said is the white man's blessing has always been
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 1: black people's curse. But that's a that's a fact. But
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 1: I can totally understand how a white person would think
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 1: their white privilege is a blessing. I can totally get
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: why they would feel that way. But right to please
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 1: remember that the Craze tweeted out the man's choice of
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 1: words wasn't the best, but I got his point. Who's
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 1: putting their career, freedom in life on the line. Me,
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 1: if anyone has the right to be upset, it's me.
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: Grace and love lead me though he's learning, he's not
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 1: shying away or silent. Though it's a marathon, not a sprint.
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 1: And here is what the pastor Louis Giglio had to say.
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 1: All right, like so many am so burdened about what
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 1: is happening in our nation right now, and one of
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 1: the things that I'm most heartbroken about is trying to
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 1: help myself continue to learn and to help my white
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 1: brothers and sisters understand that white privilege is real. And
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: in trying to get that sentiment across on Sunday, I
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 1: used the phrase white blessing, for which I'm deeply sorry,
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 1: horrible choice of words. Does not reflect my heart at all.
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 1: I don't to be clear, I believe there's any blessing
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 1: in slavery. I mean, he also tweeted out, yeah, absolutely, Yeah.
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 1: He also tweeted out not seeking to refer to slavery
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 1: as blessing, but that we are privileged because of the
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 1: curse of slavery and calling it a privilege benefit blessing.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 1: Word choice wasn't great. Oh that's what the pass is it?
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 1: M Yeah, he's right, and I mean that's all the
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 1: creed to tell him, lacred to say, look, your blessing
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 1: was a black person's curse. So yeah, that's that's that.
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 1: That was the challenge. But yeah, I would have just
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: sat there and night in my head. But maybe Lacraze
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 1: was praying. Maybe Lacre decided in that moment to pray
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 1: for him right there. That's would have say, was right.
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 1: I was actually praying, well, I was thinking hmm, I
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 1: was thinking amen. Amen. All right, Well, happy belated birthday
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: to Gunna. He got a really nice present. Young Thug

• 1:20:32
  Speaker 1: will be featured as well. Isn't no secret of a
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: Tianna Taylor fan. I think Tiana Taylor gets busy. I
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: think she's highly, highly entertaining on all levels. The album
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: is dope. I got a chance to hit the album
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: a couple of months ago, Join with Erica Bado, joined
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: with Rick Ross, Rianna got Some, got some, got some,
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 1: got some stuff. But the crazy bat, Miss Lauren Hill.
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 1: I want to hear that too. Lauren Hill record is dope.
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: I thought it was. I don't want to say, but
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: listen once again. I don't know why Tiana Taylor musically
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 1: doesn't connect with people the way that she should, because
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: the musically always there. I have to say it's a
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 1: label problem. I just have to. I have to say
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 1: it's a label problem because people, even as an entertainer,
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 1: just her dancing, her videos, her presentations amazing. But even
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 1: like I said, this song that just came out, I
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 1: love you know the we made the graduation. I think
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 1: it's a great song. This is perfect for the times,
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I don't know why it
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 1: hasn't been pushed away. It should be. I don't know.
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 1: I think they should have gave Tiana Taylor money to
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 1: do like an hour long movie, like how Beyonce did Lemonade,
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: because Tiana's a beast with dividuals, you know what I mean.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 1: Do something like that, put the music together and maybe
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 1: it would have been received differently. But we'll see you
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: on Friday. The album comes out Friday. Let's go get that.
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 1: Let's support Tiana Taylor. People absolutely all right. And lastly,
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 1: even Marsalis leaving The Real Housewives of Atlanta after three
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 1: seasons on the show. She did make the announcement yesterday
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 1: and she said she does appreciate the bond of friendship
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 1: I've made with my cast mates and strong person of
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: relationships I have with the numerous execs and producer is
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 1: at Bravo, and she's thankful for the opportunity. So she's
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: not on there anymore. All Right. I don't know what
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: talking about that because Ninny doesn't like her. So yeah,
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know why she would come back anyway, because
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: all they did was bully of the whole season that
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 1: I've seen her a lot. Yeah, I'm sure that baby,
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 1: she don't go through that stress absolutely. All right. Well,
• 1:22:21

• 1:22:31

• 1:22:43
  Speaker 1: if she wants to be on the pancakes. It says
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 1: here is that Quaker Oats is retiring it because it's
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: origins are based on a racial stereotype. That's right, and
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 1: your mamma deserves a break. She deserves to be retired. Okay.
• 1:22:57

• 1:24:51
  Speaker 1: will always be open for anyone, especially black people who
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 1: have something to say, because there are three sides to
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: a story, and you know, if we can get all
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 1: three sides, I welcome all three sides, even if the
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 1: person only wants to speak to one of us. I
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 1: am fine with that, Okay, but I do I must say,
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 1: still lie. I highly disagree with you thinking Russell shouldn't
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: have been on the show, the same way I would
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 1: disagree with someone thinking you shouldn't be on the show.
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 1: You know, if accusations are being made, people have a
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 1: right to make those accusations, and people have a right
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 1: to reply to those accusations as well. So I'm sending
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 1: you nothing but positive love and light. Still a lie,
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 1: even if you wish me to opposite she doesn't. Yeah,
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know, And let's just make sure. I want
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 1: to make sure that people are also just making sure
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 1: that you show love to still live for everything that
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 1: she's had to go through. If you watch on the record,
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 1: and make sure you do, it's on HBO Matts, it's
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 1: out and it's available now for you to watch on
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 1: the record. She actually ran through a lot, and she
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 1: did try to take her own life, and she did
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 1: even kiss her son goodbye. And fortunately, you know, she
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 1: went to the hospital and was able to recover from that.
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 1: But I know it's still a lot of healing that
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 1: has to happen, and it's an ongoing process. But I'm
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 1: glad that we were able to give her a safe
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 1: space where she could tell her side of the story.
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 1: Right And you can see the full interview on No.
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 1: I heard you say that this morning about how still
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 1: Lie I tried to take her own life. And you know,
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 1: as a as a person who just had a friend
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 1: commits suicide, you know last week Jasmine Waters, Yeah, I
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 1: want everybody to get to healing they deserve. You know,
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 1: you never know what people are going through. You never
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 1: know what you know, trauma's people have experienced that. You know,
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 1: they still have those pain bodies about. So you know,
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 1: I wish still Lie nothing but the best. And you know,
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 1: I see people on Instagram saying, you know, she sounds bitter.
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 1: If you've been through what she's been through, you probably
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 1: would sound like that too. And I wouldn't call that bitterness.
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: I would just call that hurt and anger and pain.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 1: And she has every right to feel that. And one
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 1: thing I will say that she said in an interview
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 1: that really struck me was the fact that giving up
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 1: that anonymity that she had before, and she had discussed
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 1: this in books and she hadn't named Russell Simmons. And
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 1: now you know, people are taking away her name and
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 1: just calling her Russell Simmons accuser or the woman who
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 1: accused Russell Simmons of rape, and I can you know,
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 1: we have to sympathize with the fact that she was
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 1: out here successful writing books, you know, winning awards, essays
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 1: and doing the work already, working with Safe Horizon, working
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 1: with the National Domestic Violence Hotline and all of that,
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 1: and you know, just to have to give up her
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 1: identity in order for her to come forward. Just make
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 1: sure that when you discuss her her name is Pelli Abrams.
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 1: She had something to share and to talk about. And
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 1: make sure that her voice is heard and her identity
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 1: is always known. And this platform was open for people
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 1: like her, absolutely right And you can hear the full
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 1: interview on our YouTube page right now, so definitely click
• 1:27:53
