3:14
Speaker 3: Like I mean, I think it's like it gets the
3:15
Speaker 3: hottest after all the rain. Right, So we had a
3:18
Speaker 3: lot of rain last weekend. It's usually kind of steamy afterwards,
3:21

Speaker 2: think about August is the hottest month. It's that's scary.
3:59
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, but we haven't had a whole lot of
4:04
Speaker 3: super hot days.
4:05
Speaker 2: You feel like when we did have the hot days,
4:10
Speaker 2: they were hell hot. You better get right with God,
4:12
Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying. That's sad. Don't make you want
4:15
Speaker 2: to do that else, it should make you want to
4:17
Speaker 2: get right with the Lord. Let's get me seen. This
4:51
Speaker 2: just propped up on the docket and I forgot about this,
4:55
Speaker 2: but you know, I was pissed because I don't play
4:57
Speaker 2: about Tyler Perry because he does so much for our community.
5:00
Speaker 2: So this, well, the fucking Derek Dixon filed a two
5:04
Speaker 2: hundred and sixty million dollar lawsuit against Tyler Perry alleged
5:07
Speaker 2: sexual harassment, assault, and retaliation. The lawsuit claims Perry used
5:12
Speaker 2: his power to create a coercive and sexually exploitive dynamic
5:16
Speaker 2: with Dixon. Perry allegedly offered Dixon acting opportunities and later
5:21
Speaker 2: escalated his behavior with inappropriate text messages grow uping in
5:25
Speaker 2: sexual assault. Dixon claims Perry used professional opportunities a part
5:29
Speaker 2: of a quid pro qro arrangement and retaliated with Dixie
5:34
Speaker 2: Dixon resistant sexual advances. Now, Tyler Perry's attorney, Mackie Boy
5:39
Speaker 2: stated that Dixon's claims are fabricated and described them as
5:42
Speaker 2: a scam. Boy it is. Let me tell you something,
5:47
Speaker 2: if you get rich and famous, you just better make
5:49
Speaker 2: sure you don't do shit wrong in life, because somebody
5:52
Speaker 2: is coming to get some of that money. Now. They
5:55
Speaker 2: posted on the Shade Room the conversations that were ad
6:00
Speaker 2: the team Tyler Perry and this Dixon guy.
6:03
Speaker 1: And nothing of it.
6:04
Speaker 2: None of it sounds sexual at all. Nothing but maybe
6:08
Speaker 2: it was edited. I don't know, you know. I guess
6:11
Speaker 2: we'll see further what this guy's claims are. But Tyler
6:16
Speaker 2: perryin't gonna be nobody's friend no more after.
6:18
Speaker 1: This, y'all.
6:23
Speaker 3: I'm not one of them people who quick to believe people,
6:26
Speaker 3: you know, when they say, but we can't not you
6:29
Speaker 3: can't just discredit people when they do come up with
6:31
Speaker 3: these things, not immediately until we get all. I don't
6:34
Speaker 3: like them, and nobody rather, you know, it's the person
6:37
Speaker 3: who's complaining or the person who's being accused, right, I
6:42
Speaker 3: don't wanna that. Shit just has to has to play
6:45
Speaker 3: out in court, and hopefully Tyler Perry ends up on
6:48
Speaker 3: the winning side of it all, because we do.
6:51
Speaker 1: Ever since the Me Too movement, like you, you.
6:54
Speaker 3: Don't know who to trust because we know a lot
6:56
Speaker 3: of things were you know, just conjured up out of
6:59
Speaker 3: thin air, you know, to discredit a lot of black men.
7:03
Speaker 1: We hadn't heard anything about Tyler Perry in the past.
7:08
Speaker 3: But we also can't put stuff past people because you
7:12
Speaker 3: have to realize that sometimes people don't know when they
7:14
Speaker 3: violate somebody else.
7:15
Speaker 1: Because just think about like a work work environment.
7:18
Speaker 3: Right, if you like the nigga, yes, harass me, Yeah,
7:22
Speaker 3: harassed me, nigga, I'm harassing you too, you know, But
7:26
Speaker 3: when you don't like them.
7:27
Speaker 2: It's harassment. Yeah, it's only harassment if you don't like
7:30
Speaker 2: them exactly.
7:32
Speaker 1: You know.
7:32
Speaker 3: So sometimes, like I think, there are some men who
7:36
Speaker 3: men who don't get the They don't get the hint,
7:38
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. When they like you, you're
7:40
Speaker 3: automatically supposed to like them. That is a thing, hopefully,
7:47
Speaker 3: I don't know.
7:48
Speaker 1: And it's a.
7:50
Speaker 3: White man also, right, A fine ass white man, nice
7:57
Speaker 3: looking man, you know, so I don't I don't know,
8:01
Speaker 3: you know, I don't know.
8:03
Speaker 1: We'll see.
8:04
Speaker 2: Well, I just hope I come out on top. Now

Speaker 2: liked how you I liked how you wore that dress.

8:27
Speaker 3: you cannot negate what somebody determines like sexual harassment is.

14:33
Speaker 2: somber news? This is not stupid internet news at all. Uh.
14:38
Speaker 2: The VJ former VJ from MTV, Ananda Lewis, passed away.
14:46
Speaker 2: She was fifty two years old and she had breast cancer.
14:51
Speaker 2: You know. She passed away at home and her sister looked,
14:56
Speaker 2: I'm gonna miss this name up, but I'm gonna try
14:59
Speaker 2: my best lunch. I'm not even her sister. He looks
15:06
Speaker 2: me like like SIMI like she me share the news
15:10
Speaker 2: of Lewis's passing with a heartfelt message stating she's free
15:13
Speaker 2: and then his heavenly arms, expressing her grief with a
15:16
Speaker 2: broken with broken heart emotions. She you know, she came
15:22
Speaker 2: out in twenty twenty saying that she was, you know,
15:25
Speaker 2: battling breast cancer and like she discussed about you know,
15:29
Speaker 2: early detection and going to get checked. You know, so
15:34
Speaker 2: I encourage you men and women alike, because men can
15:38
Speaker 2: get breast cancer too, to please get your bodies checked.
15:43
Speaker 2: You can do self checking. Hold one arm over your head,
15:47
Speaker 2: behind your head and cross your yeah, and then feel
15:51
Speaker 2: on your breast, need your breast and feel for any lumps.
15:55
Speaker 2: And if you feel something, go see a doctor. Don't
16:01
Speaker 2: uh think you always probably insist or it's probably don't
16:05
Speaker 2: try to self diagnose as something else. Just go get checked. Everybody.
16:10
Speaker 2: You know, she she ended up like the doctor wanted
16:14
Speaker 2: her to get a double misectomy, and she chose not
16:19
Speaker 2: to cut her breasts off. And I wonder why she
16:24
Speaker 2: chose that, you know, why wouldn't she just cut them
16:26
Speaker 2: off when she chose to.
16:31
Speaker 3: I mean, it's our breast a us right, And I guess,
16:35
Speaker 3: you know, maybe she was more of I can only
16:37
Speaker 3: assume like how I would be in that particular situation.
16:44
Speaker 3: I'm not afraid to die, right, So if it's my time,
16:47
Speaker 3: that's what that's what's gonna happen. So maybe she didn't
16:49
Speaker 3: want to face her body. Maybe she didn't want to
16:51
Speaker 3: go through because I mean that chemotherapy literally chills the
16:54
Speaker 3: good sales and bad sales in your body. So even
16:56
Speaker 3: she'd have had to got the she would have had
16:58
Speaker 3: to gotten my second me and chemo, it would probably
17:02
Speaker 3: it would not just be one or the other situations. So, yeah,
17:07
Speaker 3: she got diagnosed in twenty twenty, and she just I mean,
17:12
Speaker 3: she lived with five more years. She probably just accepted
17:16
Speaker 3: her feet and didn't want to have to go through that,
17:19
Speaker 3: through that suffering. Yeah, I guess, you know, because you're
17:23
Speaker 3: not guaranteed either way either, you know what I'm saying.
17:26
Speaker 3: And it depends also on how long how far along
17:29
Speaker 3: the cancer actually was.
17:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, she was staged three when diagnosed.
17:34
Speaker 1: When she when she got diagnosed, Yeah, boy, I know,
17:37
Speaker 1: I mean that I just.
17:39
Speaker 2: Really really really despised.
17:42
Speaker 1: I know so many women right now battling breast cancer.
17:46
Speaker 1: I knew.
17:47
Speaker 3: I know at least four women, that's a lot. That's
17:49
Speaker 3: a lot as far as I'm concerned, that's a lot.
17:51
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, personally, like yeah, I know, battling breast cancer.
17:56
Speaker 2: Two two women battling brisk answer all right. You know,
18:02
Speaker 2: I don't even like to say balut healing from healing
18:05
Speaker 2: from breast cancer, because.
18:09
Speaker 3: I mean, we're gonna fight it, but it's not yours though,
18:11
Speaker 3: you know. I people be like my cancer, my my diabetes,
18:14
Speaker 3: like that. We ain't claiming it now, but we are
18:16
Speaker 3: going to fight.
18:17
Speaker 2: Okay.
18:18
Speaker 3: Aside from going and getting your your your exams annually,
18:26
Speaker 3: you know, most likely we also need to watch our
18:29
Speaker 3: diets and stuff like that.
18:30
Speaker 1: I just the food, the food.
18:32
Speaker 2: We eat eating, and then I also feel like deorderant,
18:38
Speaker 2: I don't know, ye, the deorant.
18:42
Speaker 3: Deorderant, bras, all of that are pressing on your lymph
18:45
Speaker 3: nodes in that area. That's why they have like the
18:47
Speaker 3: no broad day and ship like that, because all of
18:49
Speaker 3: those things contribute to breast cancer.
18:53
Speaker 1: Deorder with the aluminum.
18:56
Speaker 3: Hardly me either, especially it's hot outside deorderan our words.
19:00
Speaker 3: People be talking about the natural deorderant, but the deorderant
19:04
Speaker 3: with the aluminum and all those extra added bullshit. It's
19:08
Speaker 3: clogging your pores underneath your arm.
19:10
Speaker 2: It's clogging. And all those toxes that are supposed to
19:13

20:54

22:50
Speaker 3: Shut up man, all right, So this is the last thing, y'all. So,
22:54
Speaker 3: uh divorced deception, it says, man forges wife's name on
22:59
Speaker 3: divorce papers. Police saying, now, y'all, remember when we reported
23:02
Speaker 3: where this girl actually hired a man that looked like
23:07
Speaker 3: her boyfriend and had him go through the process and
23:11
Speaker 3: courts to obtain a marriage license and he didn't even
23:15
Speaker 3: know they were married. He took her on a trip
23:17
Speaker 3: and she felt like that was her honeymoon. He didn't
23:20
Speaker 3: even know they were married. Well, this man actually forged
23:24
Speaker 3: his wife's signature to divorce her ass without knowing. So
23:28
Speaker 3: it says a Houston man, while all these motherfuckers in Texas,
23:30
Speaker 3: they'd be wild down here and like that's June. I'm
23:35
Speaker 3: about to say juneteenth. Yeah, Thus June teenth, a Houston
23:40
Speaker 3: man now has to answer to his wife and the courts.
23:44
Speaker 3: Harris County Priestinct for deputy said Paul Nixon fifty one
23:48
Speaker 3: tried to deceive the Harris County District's district's clerk's office
23:53
Speaker 3: by forging his wife's signature on divorce papers. It says
23:56
Speaker 3: he's alleged to have forged documents with his signature to
23:59
Speaker 3: try to solidify the divorce, said the.
24:01
Speaker 1: Countable Mark Herman.
24:06
Speaker 3: The wife inadvertly knew nothing about the proceedings or the
24:11
Speaker 3: divorce decree.
24:15
Speaker 1: It's how he did, he said.
24:16
Speaker 3: Court documents show Nickson filed for divorce February fifteen, and
24:21
Speaker 3: then on April seventeen, uncontested waiver divorce papers were submitted
24:27
Speaker 3: to the court with ford signature of Dixon's wife and
24:29
Speaker 3: a notary republic A court in Herman. So whoever a
24:32
Speaker 3: notary is getting in trouble too. But why is this crime?
24:36
Speaker 3: You could face off the ten years in prison and
24:39
Speaker 3: five thousand dollars worth of fines right.
24:41
Speaker 2: Because that is nuts? Why don't you just ask for
24:45
Speaker 2: a divorce? Right?
24:48
Speaker 3: Like I mean, I'm just trying to figure out, like
24:54
Speaker 3: why he couldn't just and that.
24:57
Speaker 2: Why could Maybe she was going to fight and be
25:01
Speaker 2: like I want this and I want that. But if
25:03
Speaker 2: he just signed it himself, he can just get get
25:06
Speaker 2: away scott free. But how you talking?
25:12
Speaker 1: I feel like I've seen this man before. Is he
25:14
Speaker 1: an actor or somebody you don't know this thing. He
25:19
Speaker 1: just looks familiar, this guy. But yeah, I don't.
25:24
Speaker 2: Know, man.
25:25
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe maybe he didn't feel like fighting duking it
25:27
Speaker 3: out in court. Maybe he just wanted to file like
25:29
Speaker 3: a differences and get the hell of and maybe.
25:34
Speaker 2: Mh and never that's crazy.
25:41
Speaker 1: Crazy all right, So y'all.
25:44
Speaker 2: Today is a national holiday. It is June team everywhere.
25:51
Speaker 2: It's awesome. My god baby birthday. We have your girl, Fayre. Yeah,
25:56
Speaker 2: I loved, we loved you so much. We're going to
26:01
Speaker 2: talk about June teenth, what it is, why we need
26:03
Speaker 2: to celebrate it, and all the things. So y'all will
26:06
Speaker 2: be right back in just a second. Stay tuned. All right, y'all,
26:14
Speaker 2: this episode is why Juneteenth was forgotten? Did you know
26:18
Speaker 2: about Juneteenth? Agent?
26:20
Speaker 1: Uh? Well, yeah, I feel like no.
26:25
Speaker 3: Up until they passed it as a national holiday, I
26:30
Speaker 3: never celebrated juneteen. I can't say I didn't know about Juneteenth,
26:34
Speaker 3: but we definitely didn't celebrate it in South Carolina.
26:37
Speaker 2: Yeah.
26:39
Speaker 1: I always thought it was like a Texas thing.
26:43
Speaker 2: Like I didn't really learn about it until I remember
26:46
Speaker 2: hearing like, yeah, Texas people talk about Juneteenth and how
26:49
Speaker 2: they celebrated it. But it wasn't a thing for us.
26:53
Speaker 2: So let me explain to y'all what Juneteenth is. Juneteenth
26:58
Speaker 2: is short for June nineteenth, this US holiday commemorating the
27:02
Speaker 2: end of slavery in the United States. It specifically marks
27:07
Speaker 2: June nineteenth, eighteen sixty five, the day when Union troops
27:11
Speaker 2: arrived in Galveston, Texas and announced that all enslaved people
27:15
Speaker 2: were free, more than two years after President Abraham Lincoln
27:19
Speaker 2: had issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January first, eighteen sixty three.
27:25
Speaker 2: So that's they were being enslaved despite So them white
27:29
Speaker 2: folks in Texas was like, shit, ain't no ain't no
27:34
Speaker 2: group texts, it ain't no phone call these niggas TV.
27:39
Speaker 2: We ain't gonna tell them. We're not gonna tell them.
27:43
Speaker 2: So someone had to come and like literally let them
27:47
Speaker 2: know that they were no longer enslaved and that they
27:50
Speaker 2: could be free, which is a you know, it brings
27:55
Speaker 2: up another conversation because then when they were free, now
27:58
Speaker 2: what you.
27:59
Speaker 3: Know, Yeah, a lot of people chose even in the South,
28:03
Speaker 3: you know, because through my studies, slavery was predominantly in
28:07
Speaker 3: the South. It's like Jim Crow and black laws and
28:11
Speaker 3: stuff like that that was experienced throughout the entire country,
28:14
Speaker 3: but slavery in particular probably was from Virginia on down,
28:18
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, Like maybe even some parts
28:20
Speaker 3: of Virginia wasn't uh didn't have you know, as much
28:23
Speaker 3: slavey like South Carolina and Mississippi and Louisa, Yeah, predominantly,
28:29
Speaker 3: But I mean black people lived up north too, you know.
28:32
Speaker 3: And I think twelve Years a Slave is an actual
28:35
Speaker 3: good depiction of what some people experienced during that time,
28:39
Speaker 3: because you know, remember on that movie, he was free.
28:42
Speaker 3: He was a free man living in the North with
28:45
Speaker 3: white friends, had a whole family, owned a business, and
28:48
Speaker 3: he was kidnapped into southern slavery. Yeah, and it wasn't
28:53
Speaker 3: until he m It wasn't until a good white man
28:56
Speaker 3: came onto the plantation he was on. They had basically
28:58
Speaker 3: tried to beat his his identity out of him, but
29:01
Speaker 3: he told this man who he was, and that white
29:04
Speaker 3: guy went back up up north and came back down
29:08
Speaker 3: with his black with his white friends, who then basically
29:12
Speaker 3: took him. You know what I'm saying, like, we ain't
29:14
Speaker 3: paying you off for him because he's not a slave.
29:17
Speaker 3: So a lot of people were kidnapped into slavery. A
29:20
Speaker 3: lot of black people were born free, were always free,
29:23
Speaker 3: so slavery was predominantly in the South. So people in Texas,
29:28
Speaker 3: right Galveston, Texas and other parts of Texas, they didn't
29:31
Speaker 3: even know that slavery had been abolished for two whole
29:34
Speaker 3: years until June nineteenth, eighteen sixty five. And see, that's
29:40
Speaker 3: why Juneteenth had been celebrated mostly in Texas prior to.
29:45
Speaker 2: Being Yeah, and here's the thing. This is all right,
29:50
Speaker 2: so if you haven't noticed, this administration has been quietly
29:58
Speaker 2: erasing history, like they're taking stuff out of the like
30:04
Speaker 2: things that were celebrated in our United States military. They
30:07
Speaker 2: were moving it black figures that were they have done
30:14
Speaker 2: great things for this country. They're silently removing it from
30:17
Speaker 2: the history. But and what that does is creates an
30:22
Speaker 2: environment where we don't know. That's why Juneteenth is just
30:25
Speaker 2: becoming a holiday because we're ignorant to it. So if
30:28
Speaker 2: you take out, if you remove the history, people will forget.
30:33
Speaker 2: And then next thing, you know, give me.
30:37
Speaker 1: Some examples of people and now I know that. You know,
30:40
Speaker 1: critical race theory.
30:41
Speaker 3: Has always been like one of the biggest debates the
30:43
Speaker 3: last eight years or so right, whether or not critical
30:45
Speaker 3: race theory should be taught on a college level, It's
30:48
Speaker 3: never a discussion about it being taught to children age
30:53
Speaker 3: you know, first grade to twelfth grade.
30:55
Speaker 1: It's just it was supposed to be a college course, right.
31:00
Speaker 3: Personally, if y'all going to teach history, y'all need to
31:02
Speaker 3: teach the correct history or else just let me teach
31:05
Speaker 3: my child their history.
31:07
Speaker 2: Right.
31:08
Speaker 3: So, as a little black child, I don't want my
31:10
Speaker 3: kid to think that their entire entire existence began in bondage.
31:14
Speaker 3: I would prefer for them not to teach them that
31:16
Speaker 3: because it's just not true. And that's what we learn
31:19
Speaker 3: learned in school. Like you would think that black people
31:23
Speaker 3: all came to America on a on a on a
31:25
Speaker 3: slave ship, and it's just not true. Right, So if y'all,
31:29
Speaker 3: if y'all not gonna teach the history properly, don't teach it.
31:31
Speaker 3: And then little white kids should not at the same token,
31:34
Speaker 3: should not be made to feel like shit because of
31:37
Speaker 3: their ancestors.
31:38
Speaker 1: So we can we.
31:39
Speaker 3: Can teach history history, we can't live there, and that's
31:42
Speaker 3: what that's what continues to happen. So at what point
31:45
Speaker 3: do we like and I'm not saying get over right,
31:50
Speaker 3: but at what point do we try to just be Americans,
31:55
Speaker 3: just be one? Will it ever happen if we keep
31:58
Speaker 3: teaching these negative parts of American history and then teaching
32:05
Speaker 3: it improperly? You see what I'm saying, still not actually
32:09
Speaker 3: telling the truth about it.
32:11
Speaker 2: I think you know, all right, So our history is important,
32:16
Speaker 2: I think all right. So for us to truly become
32:20
Speaker 2: fully American as one, we have to know our true stories,
32:24
Speaker 2: to celebrate the history and growth right to become what
32:29
Speaker 2: we are. But if you erase it, then it's like
32:33
Speaker 2: you want people to not know the truth. Now.
32:37
Speaker 3: I don't think you're racing it, though, I don't think
32:40
Speaker 3: they're raising it.
32:41
Speaker 2: So let me tell you the erasure of black military heroes.
32:45
Speaker 2: This year, Sergeant William Henry Johnson, the Pentagon moved the
32:49
Speaker 2: dedicated webpage honorary Sergeant William Henry Johnson, the Black World
32:53
Speaker 2: War One hero who received the Medal of Honor in
32:56
Speaker 2: twenty fifteen. They were moving them. General Colin Powell Arlington
33:01
Speaker 2: National Cemetery cease highlights the first black Chairman of the
33:06
Speaker 2: Joint Chiefs of Staff on its website, completely erased Tuskegee
33:11
Speaker 2: Airmen and other black veterans that the Department of Defense
33:14
Speaker 2: the deleted content related to the Tuscagee Airmen and other
33:18
Speaker 2: black veterans as a part of the same DEI review.
33:23
Speaker 2: So impact on military terry base renaming. Fort Gregg Adams,
33:28
Speaker 2: Virginia renamed in twenty twenty three to honor General Arthur J.
33:31
Speaker 2: Gregg and Lieutenant Colonel Charity Charity Adams, both distinguished black officers.
33:36
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty five, the basement was reverted to its
33:40
Speaker 2: original name, Fort Lee. Fort Kavaris, Texas renamed in twenty
33:45
Speaker 2: twenty three to honor of General Richard E. Kavaris, the
33:48
Speaker 2: first Hispanic Ford Star general. In twenty twenty five, they
33:52
Speaker 2: reversed it to Fort Hood does not acknowledge Kavars, effectively
33:56
Speaker 2: erasing his recognition. And this is the name.
34:00
Speaker 3: So some of them, So some of the fort names
34:02
Speaker 3: were changed a couple of years ago.
34:04
Speaker 1: Then you're saying they changed them back MH to their
34:07
Speaker 1: original names.
34:08
Speaker 2: Yes, So they were named after black military figures, black
34:13
Speaker 2: and brown, black and brown, and now they're taken and
34:17
Speaker 2: and this is just a few small examples of what
34:20
Speaker 2: they're doing. You're systematically erasing us from the history. So
34:26
Speaker 2: will be another one hundred years where we'll be like, oh,
34:31
Speaker 2: did you know about Kwanza? Have you ever heard?
34:35
Speaker 1: That's what.
34:38
Speaker 3: M That's what I'm saying. Though, You cannot expect the
34:44
Speaker 3: enemy to teach you anything, Okay, So that's why people
34:50
Speaker 3: parents at homes you have to teach your kids. Yes,
34:52
Speaker 3: you know, they made it a law essentially. I think
34:54
Speaker 3: that's the one good thing COVID did, right. It got
34:56
Speaker 3: a lot of parents doing home teaching. A lot of
34:59
Speaker 3: parents did and ended up not sending their kids back
35:01
Speaker 3: to school, so they're still teaching their small kids and
35:04
Speaker 3: you know, high school kids at home, which I think personally,
35:08
Speaker 3: when I have a child, I'm going to do homeschooling.
35:10
Speaker 3: I hope I'm in a position to absolutely do that
35:13
Speaker 3: when I have a kid. You cannot expect the enemy
35:16
Speaker 3: to teach you anything, because whoever wins the war shapes
35:20
Speaker 3: the future. They shape what happened. And you think only
35:23
Speaker 3: good people win wars. They don't know bad people be
35:26
Speaker 3: winning wars. So we always vacuum.
35:30
Speaker 2: How do we become one America when we know that
35:32
Speaker 2: there is an enemy amongst us? You know, how do you,
35:35
Speaker 2: how can we even say, oh, we need to be
35:38
Speaker 2: one America if we know that we're not viewed as one.
35:42
Speaker 3: There will always be prejudice, right because we are not
35:48
Speaker 3: all the same right now. Racism is absolutely taught. But
35:53
Speaker 3: people just have like these preconceived prejudice against people. We
35:58
Speaker 3: have them, you know what I'm saying, And we just
36:00
Speaker 3: we can't be racist, you know it, Like black people
36:02
Speaker 3: can't power white tt is.
36:06
Speaker 2: On your back.
36:08
Speaker 3: I don't want nobody's best on my back because I'm
36:10
Speaker 3: not a fucking lesbian mood them titties. Okay, I don't
36:14
Speaker 3: know what that has to do with what we're talking about,
36:17
Speaker 3: but stupid now you'll be doing shit like that, and
36:21
Speaker 3: I forget my thoughts.
36:23
Speaker 2: I got I gotta add a little somewhere.
36:29
Speaker 3: Go ahead, Yeah, what was I saying? Yeah, everybody has
36:34
Speaker 3: like prejudice, right, racist that people say like black people
36:36
Speaker 3: can't be racist because we're not in a position of
36:38
Speaker 3: power to be racist. And I don't think that black
36:41
Speaker 3: people want to be in position in a position right
36:44
Speaker 3: so we can oppress everybody else. That's just not the
36:46
Speaker 3: type of people we are. There's a way in America
36:52
Speaker 3: in particular because this is a capitalistic society.
36:56
Speaker 1: Marching isn't going to change anything. Even fucking starting wars
36:59
Speaker 1: and shit ain't gonna change shit. Because we are black people.
37:02
Speaker 1: We are the number one consumers in America. You boycott,
37:05
Speaker 1: that is the way you get what you want. You
37:08
Speaker 1: stop participating in the system and watch how quick things
37:11
Speaker 1: change because this system depends on us. The power is
37:17
Speaker 1: in the dollar. That's it.
37:20
Speaker 3: That's how we combat racism. You don't fuck with them.
37:26
Speaker 3: Other communities that people don't have these issues we have
37:29
Speaker 3: because they have more unity. And they also like say,
37:32
Speaker 3: for instance, you sell on one product right, your product
37:35
Speaker 3: costs a dollar one dollar. The Asian people they need
37:41
Speaker 3: your product right for their store or something like that,
37:44
Speaker 3: but they have a there's a there's a there's another
37:47
Speaker 3: Asian vendor that sells the same product, but it's three dollars.
37:51
Speaker 3: Guess you ain't spending their money with even if they
37:55
Speaker 3: got to pay two dollars more. They're going to their people.
38:01
Speaker 3: That's one example on out of combat racism. You fuck
38:06
Speaker 3: with your own people. We were bamboozled the civil rights
38:09
Speaker 3: The civil rights movement bamboozled black people. That's my opinion, right,
38:17
Speaker 3: we didn't need to be integrated. That yeah, segregation, if
38:23
Speaker 3: we would have remained segregated, and though they destroyed everything
38:27
Speaker 3: we tried to create, right, and I think you know
38:31
Speaker 3: during that we can do it again. We're choosing now
38:35
Speaker 3: not to do it again. We can do it again.
38:37
Speaker 1: You see.
38:38
Speaker 2: Uh if we do that again, is it wouldn't really
38:41
Speaker 2: be one America though, you know. I mean what you
38:44
Speaker 2: were saying was like that history. We need to not
38:48
Speaker 2: have it. We need to be one. But how can we.
38:50
Speaker 3: Be I'm thinking about the children, right, I'm thinking about
38:54
Speaker 3: the children. It may not happen in our lifetime because
38:58
Speaker 3: adults like this. This is why I fuck with kids
39:01
Speaker 3: more than adults. We got to start focusing on the youth,
39:04
Speaker 3: focusing on the children and what they're learning. And if
39:07
Speaker 3: they keep learning that, then that is what the future
39:10
Speaker 3: is will continue to look like. Right, So at some
39:13
Speaker 3: point we have to stop so that the kids can
39:17
Speaker 3: be doing it won't be, it won't be during our
39:20
Speaker 3: lifetime where we're one America. It won't be because we're
39:23
Speaker 3: already tainted this this thing we're talking about, we're talking
39:27
Speaker 3: about being taught to small people. So we have to
39:32
Speaker 3: stop teaching the bullshit to small people so that they
39:35
Speaker 3: can grow up and be one America. It won't happen
39:37
Speaker 3: in our lifetime.
39:38
Speaker 1: And what do you feel like the bullshit is when
39:41
Speaker 1: you say that teaching black children that their entire existence
39:47
Speaker 1: started as a slave, right, and teaching white children that
39:51
Speaker 1: their entire existence started as savages because that's what their
39:56
Speaker 1: ancestors wore. As much as they try to make it
39:59
Speaker 1: look like, make it seem like black people are such savages,
40:02
Speaker 1: we taught y'all how to wash.
40:03
Speaker 3: Let's be very clear, Okay, So yeah, that type of
40:08
Speaker 3: stuff should not be taught. So slavery, No, I don't.
40:15
Speaker 3: If a parent wants to teach that at the house,
40:17
Speaker 3: they can because we'll teach it properly. Right, there's no
40:21
Speaker 3: recollection in my family that any of us came from slaves.
40:26
Speaker 3: Now what we not slick? When I say slaves, I
40:28
Speaker 3: mean coming from Africa on a slave boat. Because let's
40:32
Speaker 3: just think about that time. It would have been impossible
40:35
Speaker 3: to get millions of millions of people cross here in
40:37
Speaker 3: the boat. I know they probably calculating the people having
40:41
Speaker 3: children and all that and that number once they got here.
40:44
Speaker 3: But in the record in history, they're trying to say
40:47
Speaker 3: that they brought all these millions of people on slave ships.
40:50
Speaker 3: It would be impossible for that time if niggas was
40:52
Speaker 3: riding around on horse and buggies and shit like that,
40:56
Speaker 3: Like y'all don't y'all didn't have the means to create
40:58
Speaker 3: these ships that y'all want people to think. What was
41:01
Speaker 3: actually happening. There was more trans trans America slave trade
41:06
Speaker 3: versus transatlantic interest. He's the intra American slave trade. Meaning
41:11
Speaker 3: they were taking people from Charleston from Louisiana, from from
41:15
Speaker 3: from Florida and swapping him with Barbados, swapping him with
41:19
Speaker 3: with Jamaica, like moving people from close islands like that.
41:22
Speaker 3: We weren't coming from Africa. There were some people coming
41:26
Speaker 3: from Africa. There were some You could tell who people
41:29
Speaker 3: were based on what crops were grown on, what plantation. Yeah,
41:34
Speaker 3: that's not like Rice and Charleston like, there were absolutely
41:37
Speaker 3: some Africans. Last week, you mentioned the African community down
41:41
Speaker 3: in Beauford. I know, I said Hilton Handle at the
41:42
Speaker 3: same area.
41:45
Speaker 1: Last week. So of course some people did come.
41:47
Speaker 3: And we're all just a blended people at this time
41:49
Speaker 3: at this time, you know what I'm saying, But not
41:52
Speaker 3: everybody came in on a slave ship. That's why we'll
41:54
Speaker 3: never get reparations.
41:57
Speaker 2: In some ways. But I don't think nobody if it's
42:00
Speaker 2: from omitting the truth. You know, this is.
42:03
Speaker 1: Why they definitely benefit from omitting the truth because in.
42:06
Speaker 2: Order I'm talking about I'm talking about now like raising
42:11
Speaker 2: our children to not know the history of their people,
42:14
Speaker 2: raising white kids to not know the history of their people.
42:18
Speaker 2: I think it's important for us to teach our children
42:20
Speaker 2: our history because they.
42:22
Speaker 3: Teach them, though I don't think it should be in
42:23
Speaker 3: a school curriculum because they're not teachings. That's what we
42:27
Speaker 3: should attack them, right, If you're going to teach history right,
42:31
Speaker 3: this is what we need to collectively attack. We attack
42:35
Speaker 3: the curriculum and what is being taught right because even
42:39
Speaker 3: now they're going to continue with the same curriculum. It's
42:42
Speaker 3: not working, it's not and.
42:44
Speaker 2: It's not real like some of the some of the
42:49
Speaker 2: things that I've seen is they try to paint history
42:51
Speaker 2: like slavery as like the slaves were happy to be slaves,
42:54
Speaker 2: you know, because they don't want to traumatize the children.
42:58
Speaker 2: But one, if you're gonna maybe you're teaching them too young.
43:04
Speaker 2: If you think it's gonna be too traumatic for them,
43:06
Speaker 2: then maybe it shouldn't be a part of the curriculum
43:08
Speaker 2: just yet. But don't make it seem like no, like
43:13
Speaker 2: black people were just out there smiling picking cotton.
43:17
Speaker 1: Do you remember that headline?
43:18
Speaker 3: This was some years ago, and I actually saw a
43:20
Speaker 3: boy like talking about it, like how his school took
43:23
Speaker 3: him to a cotton field and had them picking cotton
43:26
Speaker 3: with a bag, Yeah, all day, and then he just.
43:29
Speaker 1: Run around the cartfield like it's fun like.
43:31
Speaker 3: And he said he went home and he had a
43:34
Speaker 3: he had cotton in his back pocket. And mind you,
43:37
Speaker 3: his mama signed off on this future but obviously you
43:40
Speaker 3: didn't read the doctor he was going. Yeah, so I
43:44
Speaker 3: told she was washing clothes and the nigga had fresh
43:47
Speaker 3: cotton in his back pocket.
43:51
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you not taking my child's no damn plantation.
43:55
Speaker 3: And that's the type of shit that can possibly happen
43:57
Speaker 3: with the current curriculum.
43:59
Speaker 2: Right because so before we saw this, I went to
44:04
Speaker 2: see how much juneteen has been added to students curriculum
44:09
Speaker 2: since you know, it became a federal holiday, and it
44:11
Speaker 2: has not been widely added to any student's curriculum. These
44:15
Speaker 2: kids still don't know what it is. Even though it
44:18
Speaker 2: is a national holiday, it's still not in their curriculum
44:21
Speaker 2: to even understand why it's a holiday, what it is,
44:24
Speaker 2: and how people see it as, oh, that's a black holiday.
44:28
Speaker 2: It's not even a national holiday I remember celebrating.
44:32
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a federal holiday.
44:35
Speaker 2: It's a federal It's not widely taught what it is.
44:40
Speaker 2: It's not you go to schools July fourth, the students
44:44
Speaker 2: have red, white and blue all over the school. You know,
44:48
Speaker 2: they learn what it is. June teen should be celebrated
44:51
Speaker 2: the same way. But it's not even a part of
44:53
Speaker 2: the curriculum. It's not even added. Even after it's become
44:56
Speaker 2: a national holiday, have they Some places have added, but
45:00
Speaker 2: based on what I found on the internet, is not
45:02
Speaker 2: widely in it, and people are seeing it as a
45:06
Speaker 2: oh that's a black holiday. That's a new black holiday.
45:10
Speaker 2: And then even though in South Carolina, I think you
45:13
Speaker 2: like government jobs, like you can choose between uh, what's that?
45:21
Speaker 2: What's or junet off? Pick one?
45:26
Speaker 1: Oh you can't get both off.
45:28
Speaker 2: No, you can pick one of those.
45:31
Speaker 3: You don't even get a floating holiday, ignorant. That's why listen,
45:40
Speaker 3: this is why I don't agree that Juneteenth should have
45:42
Speaker 3: ever been.
45:42
Speaker 1: Made a federal holiday. It's a lot of holidays.
45:44
Speaker 3: They can Columbus Day for one, right, So now there
45:47
Speaker 3: are people, there's people, there are people who celebrate Indigenous
45:51
Speaker 3: Day right as opposed to Columbus Columbus Day.
45:55
Speaker 1: The thing is is that I want money.
45:59
Speaker 3: I don't want symbolization for anything else anymore, right, I need.
46:04
Speaker 2: We don't want to statuations. Who said that, then we're
46:10
Speaker 2: gonna give us nothing but symbolism.
46:13
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that, and that's what we received once we
46:15
Speaker 1: accepted that. I don't accept I'm not saying that Juneteenth
46:18
Speaker 1: is not important.
46:19
Speaker 2: Okay.
46:20
Speaker 3: As far as like how it should be added to
46:22
Speaker 3: the curriculum, okay, you would you like to see, like
46:27
Speaker 3: like what would what would the schools do on Juneteenth?
46:31
Speaker 3: I know you said fourth of July, July, put the
46:34
Speaker 3: color what is the thing, But what is the teach
46:38
Speaker 3: the student?
46:39
Speaker 2: Why is it important? Give them some strawberry drink or something,
46:44
Speaker 2: I don't know what, the full something and watermelon leverage
46:50
Speaker 2: something whatever like because those things are associated with Juneteenth.
46:53
Speaker 2: That's what they had to celebrate. Y'all need to have
46:55
Speaker 2: a cookout at the school I don't know something, do
46:58
Speaker 2: something celebrate us because we are such a huge intergral
47:02
Speaker 2: part of the fabric of this fucking country, and we're
47:06
Speaker 2: just like, Oh, that's a black holiday. Oh that's that
47:08
Speaker 2: new black ship. That ain't for us.
47:10
Speaker 3: No, it's for you too, because we've been I don't
47:13
Speaker 3: want the symbolists. I don't want the I don't want
47:15
Speaker 3: want it all.
47:16
Speaker 2: I want it all.
47:19
Speaker 3: I would prefer actual tangible items. Another holiday is not
47:23
Speaker 3: really tangible.
47:24
Speaker 2: I want the holiday when it was remember what he said,
47:30
Speaker 2: what and either what? No, let's have it all. Why
47:33
Speaker 2: should we have to choose one between one or the other.
47:36
Speaker 3: I don't want no more pacifiers, all right. I don't
47:38
Speaker 3: want to be rocked to sleep. I'm very conscious. I
47:41
Speaker 3: know some niggas mean naps. I take my naps. I
47:45
Speaker 3: prefer actual tangible items. And I feel like when they
47:49
Speaker 3: gave us this holiday, when they gave us because that's
47:52
Speaker 3: all they're going to do is give us symbols, symbolization,
47:58
Speaker 3: they're actually discarding what it is that we actually need
48:01
Speaker 3: to be competitive in this market. Yeah, so we keep it.
48:05
Speaker 3: I don't accept I don't accept this. I don't accept it.
48:09
Speaker 3: I acknowledge it, but I don't accept it. It's not enough.
48:12
Speaker 2: No, it's definitely not enough. It's not enough. I say,
48:15
Speaker 2: I want both. Give us the holiday and the money,
48:18
Speaker 2: give us for acres and the mule. We want all
48:21
Speaker 2: of that, but too we celebrate all this ship that
48:26
Speaker 2: don't have nothing to do with us is sitting around Thanksgiving.
48:31
Speaker 1: We lost the war. We lost the war.
48:33
Speaker 3: So the enemy is now has now been shaping the future.
48:38
Speaker 3: That's who we have been allowing to teach our children,
48:41
Speaker 3: That's who we've been allowing to feed our people.
48:44
Speaker 2: That's who we run the country. That's who we allow
48:47
Speaker 2: and vote for to run the country. The same people.
48:50
Speaker 2: So I mean, what do you do? You do? You
48:53
Speaker 2: know you.
48:54
Speaker 3: Have h right now in Charleston, it's a lot of
48:59
Speaker 3: city councilmen in the city of North Charleston that they're
49:04
Speaker 3: facing prison time.
49:06
Speaker 1: And what these niggas did.
49:08
Speaker 3: A lot of times black people get into position to
49:11
Speaker 3: actually help their community, right to actually be a voice
49:16
Speaker 3: of representation for the people, and they get in there
49:19
Speaker 3: and they do sline ball shit just like the white
49:21
Speaker 3: man does. Because really, ultimately a lot of black people
49:24
Speaker 3: just want close proximity to whiteness. They don't want to
49:27
Speaker 3: knock all this shit over and start a new and
49:29
Speaker 3: that's what we're dealing with. It's a lot of it's
49:31
Speaker 3: a lot of black people who get voted in and
49:34
Speaker 3: they only do best interest for them in their family,
49:37
Speaker 3: I mean one generation of families. White people do sline
49:40
Speaker 3: ball shit. They are trying to enrich generations, their entire lineage.
49:45
Speaker 3: We only worry about the niggas in the house with us.
49:49
Speaker 3: It's a mindset in order in order to change. You
49:53
Speaker 3: may not, it's fine. I'm just I gave you an
49:55
Speaker 3: example though, right, and we and there's a lot of
49:57
Speaker 3: our a lot of other examples of black people who
49:59
Speaker 3: get in position of power and they only do things.
50:03
Speaker 3: They do the wrong things every fucking time. It's a
50:06
Speaker 3: lot of them, okay, from the church to politicians, politicians,
50:10
Speaker 3: It's just the truth. Right.
50:12
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say everybody.
50:13
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna make a blanket statement and say everybody,
50:16
Speaker 3: but a lot of them, Okay, they don't do the
50:19
Speaker 3: right things when we do get in positions of power.
50:23
Speaker 3: So it starts with us. We could keep blaming other people.
50:27
Speaker 3: We could keep blaming other groups of people.
50:29
Speaker 1: We have more power now.
50:31
Speaker 3: We have more money now to actually make change, and
50:36
Speaker 3: we're not doing it a lot of times, No we're not.
50:38
Speaker 3: We're not getting together, unifying and actually doing it. Our
50:42
Speaker 3: ancestors in the Civil Rights Union, civil rights movement, and
50:45
Speaker 3: a lot of other movements, they had a little bit
50:48
Speaker 3: more organization. So people could be mad at Kanye all
50:51
Speaker 3: day long. When he says slavery was a choice, I
50:53
Speaker 3: don't agree with that, right, But he says slavery he said,
50:57
Speaker 3: he said, sounds like a choice. Right. If we don't
51:01
Speaker 3: choose slavery, then we are absolutely choosing slavery.
51:05
Speaker 2: Now I can't disagree with that. You know, the stuff
51:10
Speaker 2: that we just sit back and let ride, Like when
51:15
Speaker 2: they started removing all this black history. You know, Tyler
51:19
Speaker 2: Perry is just like pop Wars. He spoke on it,
51:23
Speaker 2: you know, about how they're erasing our political, our historical
51:27
Speaker 2: figures from quietly just removing us, and we just just
51:32
Speaker 2: quiet about it. We're just so quiet about it. We
51:35
Speaker 2: not care. Are we just only concerned with our like
51:38
Speaker 2: you said, our immediate family and our own own immediate needs.
51:44
Speaker 2: What do you do when you're behind enemy lines? What
51:46
Speaker 2: do you do? Because we can sit here talk about
51:52
Speaker 2: you let me finish my thought. We can sit here
51:54
Speaker 2: on this podcast and talk about what niggas ain't doing
51:57
Speaker 2: right and what they're doing in position, But what are
51:59
Speaker 2: we doing? We ain't doing shit, but sitting here talking
52:01
Speaker 2: on a podcast. What have you done? What have I so? Nothing?
52:06
Speaker 2: So we just talked on.
52:08
Speaker 3: Of one of my goals and I know I've mentioned
52:11
Speaker 3: it on this podcast, is to actually get involved with politics.
52:15
Speaker 3: That's why I go to my city council meetings and
52:17
Speaker 3: stuff like that so I can understand what's going on.
52:20
Speaker 1: It starts there.
52:21
Speaker 3: Just getting involved with your community, you know what I'm saying,
52:25
Speaker 3: doing some volunteer work, stuff like that, getting to know people,
52:29
Speaker 3: getting to understand people's mindsets, get involved with politics. We
52:32
Speaker 3: can't continue to be on the sidelines. We can't not
52:35
Speaker 3: be involved with who the president is just because we
52:38
Speaker 3: don't like them.
52:40
Speaker 1: Right.
52:40
Speaker 3: We need to know what the fuck they're in there doing, right,
52:43
Speaker 3: so we send people in there to look around and
52:45
Speaker 3: check shit out and come back and report.
52:47
Speaker 1: We shouldn't be publicly.
52:49
Speaker 3: Disparaging them, right, because sometimes you can't always tell the
52:54
Speaker 3: left hand what the right hand is doing. Because throughout
52:57
Speaker 3: history it has been black people that put us in
53:00
Speaker 3: these vulnerable states to get fucked up, conspiring with the other.
53:04
Speaker 1: Side, conspiring with conspiring.
53:06
Speaker 2: With the enemy.
53:07
Speaker 3: We have always been being torn down from within. They
53:10
Speaker 3: use one of us to get us every time. So
53:14
Speaker 3: that's what I'm saying. It starts with us. We have
53:17
Speaker 3: to change our mindset if we want to change change
53:20
Speaker 3: the future of our people. We can't be torking in
53:27
Speaker 3: the protests and all this bullshit. We are taking nothing serious.
53:35
Speaker 3: So the one thing I can do right now is
53:37
Speaker 3: one individual right. Because I have a lot of strong
53:39
Speaker 3: views on a lot of a lot of things. I
53:42
Speaker 3: love my people, I love black people, I love Black people,
53:46
Speaker 3: and I just want us to be better. I want
53:48
Speaker 3: us to do better collectively.
53:50
Speaker 1: But some of these nigga's.
53:52
Speaker 3: Gonna have to die. Okay, It's just true. Something everybody
53:56
Speaker 3: can't go. This is why Harry Tubman, listen, none of
54:07
Speaker 3: us died. I want all of us to go, and.
54:11
Speaker 1: Everybody can't go. That is the problem.
54:14
Speaker 3: We are not even amongst our people. We're not all
54:17
Speaker 3: the same amongst their people. They're not all the same
54:22
Speaker 3: amongst every group there are. Everybody not gonna be able
54:25
Speaker 3: to go. So so the people who have the wherewithals
54:28
Speaker 3: that actually make change. Those are the people we have
54:31
Speaker 3: to congregate with and hopefully the others wake up. But
54:36
Speaker 3: we will die trying to wake them up. A lot
54:41
Speaker 3: of us will die, a lot of us will be
54:42
Speaker 3: casualties of war trying to wake them up. The gang community.
54:46
Speaker 3: That's our soldiers right there. Like it really like people
54:49
Speaker 3: have to actually die for change. First of all, it's
54:52
Speaker 3: not gonna come through legislation. It comes to war.
54:56
Speaker 1: For real. But we don't have a military. We don't
54:59
Speaker 1: be ki ourselves. Now we're telling each other they no
55:02
Speaker 1: longer doing it no.
55:03
Speaker 2: More, and they're not and we're not willing to make
55:05
Speaker 2: the sacrifices. Like like you said, if it costs a
55:08
Speaker 2: dollar with Asians, we're gonna pay the dollar versus paying
55:13
Speaker 2: the three dollars with our own people. But oftentimes they
55:17
Speaker 2: don't be trying to get over on eight people.
55:19
Speaker 3: Though there's a fucking place I won't go to here
55:21
Speaker 3: because why are y'all charging niggas twenty five dollars for
55:24
