Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: It is the deal.
- 0:00Speaker 2: You can show you a twenty twenty six and this
- 0:02Speaker 2: is so, when did you find out or that the
- 0:06Speaker 2: name you and you your entire life wasn't the same
- 0:08Speaker 2: as on your birth certificate? Because I think most people
- 0:11Speaker 2: like I think that I may be wrong on these numbers,
- 0:14Speaker 2: but we're a nation of about three hundred and fifty
- 0:16Speaker 2: million people. They issue anywhere, they issue like ten million
- 0:21Speaker 2: passports a year, but Americans generating used between two.
- 0:25Speaker 1: And four million. It went out a very well travel country.
- 0:28Speaker 2: Yeah, the first time I ever needed my passport was
- 0:30Speaker 2: when I was going on a cruise at twenty twenty five.
- 0:33Speaker 2: I wouldn't have needed for anything else. The first time
- 0:35Speaker 2: I ever needed my birth certificate was that. And so
- 0:38Speaker 2: you have to get this paperwork. You have to say
- 0:40Speaker 2: I've used this name. You have to have a the Davis.
- 0:43Speaker 2: But the Save Act is going to make a lot
- 0:45Speaker 2: of people go through those changes.
- 0:47Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 0:47Speaker 4: Well, also don't forget if you get married and you
- 0:49Speaker 4: change your name and it is totally different on your versativity.
- 0:52Speaker 1: As outlined in.
- 0:53Speaker 4: Project twenty twenty five, women will more than likely lose
- 0:58Speaker 4: their right to vote if it does not match the
- 1:00Speaker 4: name on their birth source.
- 1:01Speaker 2: But imagine me and skip both do and you no
- 1:05Speaker 2: device of our own. And if you haven't traveled, wow,
- 1:09Speaker 2: and you didn't need a birth sea taket and you
- 1:11Speaker 2: didn't need a passport, what would you know that?
- 1:13Speaker 5: For?
- 1:13Speaker 6: Right?
- 1:14Speaker 2: You can live your whole life there? And how many people?
- 1:16Speaker 2: How many passports an issue in this country? Oh, let's see,
- 1:20Speaker 2: I was grown before I got my past.
- 1:22Speaker 1: Yeah me too.
- 1:23Speaker 3: I was where was I gonna go? You know, I
- 1:25Speaker 3: think in Mexico? And I said, I think part of it.
- 1:28Speaker 4: Is because twenty four point five million passports.
- 1:30Speaker 2: Yeah, but they only used to. They issue twenty four
- 1:33Speaker 2: but they only used to.
- 1:34Speaker 4: Yeah, they're over one hundred and seventy one million that
- 1:37Speaker 4: are in circulation.
- 1:37Speaker 1: Though, Yeah, they don't use them at all though yeah,
- 1:40Speaker 1: probably not.
- 1:40Speaker 4: But also I think it has a lot to do
- 1:42Speaker 4: with money economics. You know a lot of people don't
- 1:44Speaker 4: reality to travel curiosity.
- 1:46Speaker 2: I think we will be the same place we got
- 1:48Speaker 2: to can Like we're not a very adventure some travel.
- 1:52Speaker 3: True, United States is a big, big property. Like when
- 1:55Speaker 3: you're in Europe, if you want to go to beach,
- 1:56Speaker 3: you gotta travel.
- 1:57Speaker 1: You got it.
- 1:57Speaker 3: Because they're small countries and you gotta travel. You can
- 2:00Speaker 3: go to Miami, you want to go to the mountains,
- 2:01Speaker 3: you can go to Colorado, you can stay in the
- 2:03Speaker 3: United States and hit all those different kind of environments.
- 2:06Speaker 2: I think it's that that there's a reason we read
- 2:09Speaker 2: at the fifth grade level because we don't have curiosity.
- 2:13Speaker 2: So I think that it is people tend to eat
- 2:16Speaker 2: the things that they're comfortable with, go the places they
- 2:19Speaker 2: come to with, do the things they comfortable with.
- 2:22Speaker 1: I will say a.
- 2:22Speaker 4: Couple of years ago they said that the number of
- 2:24Speaker 4: people who applied for a passport and got one was
- 2:26Speaker 4: up quite a bit, showing that people wanted to travel.
- 2:29Speaker 1: But now it's way down. It's down.
- 2:32Speaker 2: Its way down, Like we're not a very well like
- 2:36Speaker 2: if you go to a lot of African countries, like
- 2:38Speaker 2: people who are educated in Africa they travel a lot.
- 2:41Speaker 2: People are educating eurol they travel in the Asia that
- 2:44Speaker 2: they travel a lot.
- 2:45Speaker 1: Yeah that's true, but here, but that's why you go.
- 2:49Speaker 1: I went to the Bahamas.
- 2:52Speaker 2: You know we're not And so I think that the
- 2:55Speaker 2: occasion to have to ask for a passport, there's going
- 2:58Speaker 2: to be a lot of people shit this pass There's
- 3:00Speaker 2: gonna be a lot of people who.
- 3:02Speaker 1: Find out that they're not elivovote either. Watch.
- 3:05Speaker 2: So the question we're asking is, when did you find
- 3:07Speaker 2: out the name you've been using your entire life wasn't
- 3:10Speaker 2: the name on your birth certificate?
- 3:11Speaker 1: And why do our parents want to keep your versative
- 3:13Speaker 1: it ain't yours?
- 3:14Speaker 7: I don't know.
- 3:14Speaker 4: I guess they keep it in the family Bible as
- 3:16Speaker 4: they do.
- 3:16Speaker 1: But you could take a picture of that.
- 3:18Speaker 2: Yes, if you need your original and a lot of
- 3:20Speaker 2: places now youre gonna need your original cer certificate. But
- 3:22Speaker 2: your mama, I can't think of the last time I
- 3:23Speaker 2: needed my person. And when you think of it, I
- 3:26Speaker 2: think of it to say that, sure will so skip
- 3:32Speaker 2: what happened with you when you find out?
- 3:34Speaker 3: You know, I kind of always knew because I had
- 3:35Speaker 3: seen it, but it never became an issue until it
- 3:37Speaker 3: was time to get a passport. Hell me and Tiffany
- 3:39Speaker 3: were dating at the time, and we were going out
- 3:41Speaker 3: the country. Matter of fact, the first time we went
- 3:43Speaker 3: out the country, we went to Mexico, and you can
- 3:44Speaker 3: still travel with a birth certificate, and I had a
- 3:46Speaker 3: counterfeit one made I knew there was a dude.
- 3:48Speaker 1: I knew who dude, and but that was cool. But
- 3:51Speaker 1: now you're listening to this. Yeah, but then when they
- 3:54Speaker 1: switched to pan and note to your people, tell a
- 3:56Speaker 1: get whatever.
- 3:57Speaker 3: I had to go through hell and high water. You
- 4:00Speaker 3: had to get half of David's. I had hold of
- 4:03Speaker 3: report cards and people testifying and all that stuff to
- 4:06Speaker 3: get it everything.
- 4:07Speaker 2: It is a cumbersome endeavor, it is, and I think
- 4:10Speaker 2: a lot of people are not counting that because they
- 4:12Speaker 2: never really had an occasion to get a versity.
- 4:15Speaker 3: And I had to go to the passport office in
- 4:17Speaker 3: Houston because that's the main one integon.
- 4:19Speaker 1: I couldn't go to the one in Dallas. I had
- 4:20Speaker 1: to go to the main one fly down.
- 4:22Speaker 2: I had to go to too. I had wited it out.
- 4:27Speaker 2: You didn't got to do it. I just show us
- 4:29Speaker 2: paperwork and I did it. So how old were you
- 4:32Speaker 2: when did you find out?
- 4:33Speaker 1: N even how old?
- 4:34Speaker 2: But when did you find out that the name you've
- 4:36Speaker 2: been using your entire life wasn't the one of your
- 4:38Speaker 2: verth certificate? We're going through the phones.
- 4:39Speaker 6: I thought about my own name. My name is spelled
- 4:42Speaker 6: different from my birth certificate, and when I was in
- 4:46Speaker 6: grade school, my teachers never spelled it.
- 4:48Speaker 1: Help was on my.
- 4:49Speaker 6: Birth certificate so I didn't think much of it until
- 4:52Speaker 6: I got ready to get a passport because I legally
- 4:56Speaker 6: changed it to how I would want it to be spelled,
- 4:58Speaker 6: since I'm named after my dad and so it's the
- 5:01Speaker 6: same name, but it just looks more feminine, and I
- 5:04Speaker 6: was concerned about getting a passport. The immigration gave me
- 5:07Speaker 6: no issues in regards to that, so it's never been
- 5:11Speaker 6: spelled like that unless I'm forced to spell it that way,
- 5:13Speaker 6: like in regards to my driver's license last year when
- 5:16Speaker 6: I got it renewed, the DMV made me spell it
- 5:20Speaker 6: the way it is on my birth certificate, but on
- 5:22Speaker 6: my passport it's still different.
- 5:25Speaker 5: I was forty eight years old when I first found
- 5:27Speaker 5: out my name wasn't the same oundverth certificate, and my
- 5:30Speaker 5: mama was acting as shocked as I was. You know,
- 5:33Speaker 5: I'm forty nine now. I just found out last year
- 5:35Speaker 5: trying to give me a passport that my name didn't
- 5:38Speaker 5: match on a birth certificate. I was like, Wow, that's
- 5:41Speaker 5: like saying that you don't you ain't in the same family.
- 5:43Speaker 5: Would you find out that you from another country or something?
- 5:46Speaker 5: You know.
- 5:47Speaker 8: I didn't find.
- 5:47Speaker 9: Out that my real name was my real name until
- 5:51Speaker 9: I got ready to graduate from high school and they
- 5:54Speaker 9: got ready to pull up my diploma and my old
- 5:56Speaker 9: birth certificate pulled up. My father adopted me when I
- 5:59Speaker 9: was years ago when my parents got married. And also
- 6:02Speaker 9: my mom just found out just found her new birth certificate.
- 6:07Speaker 9: Five years ago. She found out that her mother was
- 6:09Speaker 9: not her original mother, and she had to go through
- 6:12Speaker 9: ancestry dot Com, went through all the DNA tests and
- 6:15Speaker 9: found out that her mother was not her real mother.
- 6:16Speaker 9: And my mother is now sixty six years old. She
- 6:18Speaker 9: found out at the age of sixty she never had
- 6:21Speaker 9: a birth certificate until she found out that her mother
- 6:24Speaker 9: was not her real mother. Come to find out her
- 6:26Speaker 9: last name, it was not their last name. She was
- 6:28Speaker 9: a year younger and her name was different.
- 6:31Speaker 10: The question that d O just said, Man, I was
- 6:33Speaker 10: fifty one years old when I found out that my
- 6:35Speaker 10: original birth certificate did not was not coincidable what I've
- 6:38Speaker 10: been using for the past fifty one years, and.
- 6:40Speaker 1: They made me changing.
- 6:41Speaker 5: When I go on to get my driver's license after
- 6:44Speaker 5: fifty one years.
- 6:45Speaker 10: I told the woman I sitting man up and buying
- 6:46Speaker 10: houses and cars and everything else, You're gonna trim me
- 6:49Speaker 10: up to fifty one years.
- 6:49Speaker 5: This is not my right name.
- 6:52Speaker 10: So I had to change it on my driver's license
- 6:54Speaker 10: and everything and take it, take the junior off, and
- 6:58Speaker 10: I legally cannot sign on anything that I signed. That's
- 7:03Speaker 10: legal finding right now at this current time.
- 7:06Speaker 11: I was twelve years old when I found out that
- 7:09Speaker 11: I didn't have a name on my birth certificate because
- 7:13Speaker 11: when I was born back in the days, back in
- 7:17Speaker 11: nineteen sixty two, they wasn't putting names on bersatificates. The
- 7:21Speaker 11: parents could leave the hospital without men and their children
- 7:25Speaker 11: at the time. So on my birth certificate, my name
- 7:29Speaker 11: is known as Baby. Not gonna tell you my last name,
- 7:33Speaker 11: but that's my first name is Baby. So yeah, it's crazy.
- 7:37Speaker 2: So the question we're asking, when did you find out
- 7:39Speaker 2: that the name you've been using your entire life was
- 7:41Speaker 2: not the one on your Birthdaybut we're going right to
- 7:43Speaker 2: the phone.
- 7:44Speaker 12: Well, I got one to do a little bit better.
- 7:46Speaker 5: My grandmother and grandfather, No, my great grandmother, my great.
- 7:50Speaker 12: Grandfather had so many children they celebrated birthday together. So
- 7:55Speaker 12: my aunt fails out that her birthday was not much eleven.
- 8:00Speaker 12: Her birthday was April the eleven, So take your pic
- 8:04Speaker 12: with you. Rather had the wrong name or the wrong birthday.
- 8:08Speaker 8: Well, my birth certificate has my father's middle name on it.
- 8:12Speaker 8: My original birth certificate has it, but I haven't used
- 8:16Speaker 8: my middle name since I was like sixteen. I just
- 8:20Speaker 8: go by my first and last name, and that's how
- 8:23Speaker 8: I've been signing everything. And if I was to go
- 8:26Speaker 8: get my birth certificate, I would have to go get
- 8:28Speaker 8: all my ID change to include my middle name, and
- 8:32Speaker 8: I don't know about the Social Security number, but that
- 8:35Speaker 8: is kind of hectic to do. But I don't use
- 8:39Speaker 8: my middle name and I've never had since I was sixteen.
- 8:42Speaker 8: So no, my birth certificate doesn't.
- 8:44Speaker 5: It doesn't have the name that I used in public.
- 8:48Speaker 13: I found out that my last name wasn't my last name.
- 8:52Speaker 7: Of I was in the eighth Green I'll be sixty
- 8:54Speaker 7: four this year, and you know, when you started.

- 9:03Speaker 7: wasn't the name I was going by all years. And
- 9:06Speaker 7: we found out my brother what happened was my mom
- 9:10Speaker 7: back then you know, whatever.
- 9:11Speaker 11: Your mom that's name was, then that was your last name.
