  Speaker 2: black women are some of the most nasty, disrespectful people
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: because they've trold her appearance.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Let's take a listening.
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: I'm letting you have it right now because the ain't nothing
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: you can do about that. And while you looking for
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: a new job. I'm still gonna be selling out theaters
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: and venues looking like a fat slob and clothes that
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: you said that I look nasty in and my feet
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: is so damn big, and who dressed me. I'm still
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: gonna be making my money. I don't even do this,
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: but I'm so sick of black people, and they're both.
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: I'm saying what I want to say. If you got
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: a problem with what I'm saying, and you know, Lord,
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: pray for me, because I'm not there yet.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Black women, you are some of the most nasty.
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: Disrespectful people on God's planet Earth, the things that you
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: say about other black women women. But you're an activist
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: and you are educated, and you are this, and you
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: are that and you are the other.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Alrighty, So the mic was on Kelly Price said what
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: she said. I told you guys, this is a forty
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: five minute long IG live.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: She did it late, you know, overnight in La.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Literally we woke up to these words, and obviously it
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: was something that was on her spirit, on her heart.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: She performed Friday in Memphis at the Orphium. I believe
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: I'm saying I right the Orphium Theater and there is
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: photos and videos of her posting on stage. I went
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: because I was trying to figure out what prompted this,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: because you know, I went through some of her other pictures,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: and you know, it might have been this might have
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: been a long time coming. Like I know, Kelly Price
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: has had conversations about, you know, how the industry dealt
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: with her when it came to her weight and her
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: having to figure that out and navigate that space.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: So I know that this is not a.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: New area for her to hear people be critical of
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: things about her in relation to her and all of
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: those things. But I did want to try and understand
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: a bit more of like what caused her to get
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: on live, because as she says, she doesn't normally do this.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: I've never seen Kelly Price go live to rid a bitch, Okay,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: I've never seen it. Now do I agree with her?
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: I hate to have to say it, but I do.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I do agree with her. I do believe that. And
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: it's not all black women, it's not everybody. It's not
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: all black men either, but I do think that we
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: unknowingly are some of the toughest people on each other yo,
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: especially in public forums, like especially when it comes to
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: you know, people sitting on platforms, and everybody got mics
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: nown and even if you don't have a microphone or
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: a camera in front of you, just you know, being
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: on your keyboard and you know, on your phone, and
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: you on Twitter, and you in the comments, and it's
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: all about who's comment can get the most likes in
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: the shade room comments and no shade to the shape room.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: Love my people over there. But y'all know what I'm
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: getting at.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: I completely understand, I completely feel her. I think one
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: of the things that I'm starting to see from this
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: and when I said that I saw her performance Friday
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: at that theater in Memphis, I realized on that video
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: that the comments on that video were turned off. I
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: did not see the comments on that video before they
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: were turned off, So I don't know specifically if that wasn't.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: But the other posts she collab that post on her page,
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: but the other post on her page, the comments are
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: not turned off. So I'm assuming that the person who
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: posted that, which was the person who had posted about,
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: you know, seeing her and being excited to see her
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: in Memphis, turned the comments off and then she saw
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: the comments and went live. That's I'm assuming this tracks,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: but I don't know that to be confirmed. Regardless of
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: what went down with comment, it was whatever she saw
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: she it pissed her off, and she wanted to address
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: the girls, and that is exactly what she did. Okay,
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: read them to a t. Here's my thing, though, and
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: y'all let me know how y'all feel about this again.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Get in the streets, get.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Into y'all want to comment, Let's have this conversation.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Let's start with black women.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: So in my own and I'm only speak here for
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: my personal experience, I cannot speak for Kelly Price. In
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: my personal experience, I think not even I think what
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: I have felt just in the little bit of time
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: that you guys have gotten to know me on this platform,
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: people are so critical of your looks everything.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Yo.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: I get comments about the way I pronounce words, the
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: way I say words, I get comments about. So It's
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: like I get comments when I am when I'm over
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: pronunciating or I'm talking proper, people are like, why is
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: she talking like that? Or I've always gotten like the
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: you know, the whole she's talking white?
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: Who does she think she is? Like that whole thing? Right?
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: But then when I'm not talking out because I go
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: in and out. It depends, like I don't know, I
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: go in and out of you know, being able to
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: you know, my dialect changes depending on what I'm talking
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: about sometimes or you know, just what the surrounding is,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: like if I'm talking about court, if I'm talking about whatever.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: But I remember I walked out of the shave room,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: the shave room, I walked out of court during the
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Diddy trial, and I use the words I think I said.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: The prosecutors did their big one, and y'all was all
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: over me. And I don't even just mean in the
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: shave room comments. I mean it went from I'm to
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: shave room comments to my Instagram. I've seen threads about
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: myself on Twitter. On threads, there's always yo. When I
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: went to freaking Dominican Republic and I put on a
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: bathing suit, y'all would have thought that I committed murder.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: I was everything. I was uneducated.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: I was the reason why black young women don't have
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: careers and futures. I was nothing to be looked up to.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: It was crazy, like, it was honestly insane. I'm learning
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: to like I've never been a person that like let
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: social media like ruin my whole life, room, my whole day.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: But you do see the comments. I've had to learn
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: to stay out of the comments because I'd be wanting
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: to get right back at y'all, like that's how I feel.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: So I understand Kelly Price and again the issue that
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: she's experiencing. I'm not making this about me whatsoever, But
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: I think when I hear her talk and then I
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: see people in the comments saying.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: Why are you saying this?
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Why would you get on a platform and speak against
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: black women? That's my issue majority of the time with
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: us as black women. If this is what she's experiencing,
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: why does she got to talk about it in the shadows?
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I think if we talked about.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: It more openly and we shamed people or people had
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: to deal with consequences when they did it, there wouldn't
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: be as much of it. I don't think that we
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: understand the power of like group, group group. Look, y'all
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: gonna drave me forgetting that we're wrong group economics and
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: group think. I really don't think that we understand that,
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: especially because like when you're talking about a person like
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: a Kelly Price, or even when we saw with Essence
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: Festival I was mad as hell at us about that.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: And majority of the of the receipts in the videos
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: and all the things I saw it was black woman led.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: And again I'm gonna talk about black women and black men,
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: but I'm talking two black women first because as a
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: black woman, I've experienced this myself, so I could speak
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: to it. But when you talk about a Kelly Price,
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: so you talk about the way that this woman looks right,
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: so the talking about her way, talking about how she's dressed, you.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Talk about all these things.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: These are conversations that, if put in the right echo chamber,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: can echo to a point where they might affect money, brand, business, whatever.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: Not saying that that is why she got on Live
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: and decided to, you know, say all the things she said.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: But I think about that, and I think about essence
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: special when I think about the things that we choose
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: to focus our time on and joining as a group
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: to you know, shame.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: And I get it.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Everybody has a little key key every now and then,
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: but it gets to a point where it's like, this
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: is not even a joke, it's not even funny. Are
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: you okay? Like are you are you okay? Because at
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: the end of the day. That is a woman who
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: you don't know what she's going through. Every single day.
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: She is getting up, she is getting on the stage,
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: she is getting in front of people, and she is
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: doing her job every single day to be able to
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: pay her bills. Why be the person or why want
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: to be the people in a group, whether it's in
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: comments or whatever, that want to break her spirit enough
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: to the point where she can't do that. We've heard
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: so many conversations about singers, you know, and them having
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: to deal with physical appearance and showing up and just
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: all of these things. I don't understand why, Like I
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: don't understand why people are so comfortable with doing and
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: saying certain things. And when it comes to black women,
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: I think a lot of times, you know, from what
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: I've experienced, we think we're helping each other by doing this.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: It's like I remember we were having a conversation on
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: a breakfast club. It was me Charlottmagne and being a
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: carry champion and I will insert a bit of a
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: conversation here. I always felt like in the media space, though,
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: like the in what we do, I always felt like
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: when it came to black women, it's never a real
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: genuine mentorship. It's always like I've never met a woman.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: I don't have any mentors that don't on camera and
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: do what I do because everybody feel like I'm coming
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: for what they got going on all the time.
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: So I can't. I can't support that.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: But I.
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: Can't.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Im I used to be, but I have to feel
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: that way.
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: But the reality is is that when you let these
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: people know where you come from and what you want, like, yes,
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: people will hate on you, that's just the nature of
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: this business. But you have to find a community of
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: women who have your back. And I'm sure there are
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: some you see right now, there's somebody who's listening to
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: you right now who's gonna be like, I'm gonna take
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: care of her now.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: My point in bringing this this piece up was as
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: a younger black woman trying to figure out and navigate
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: the world every day. And I don't mean like because
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: I got I have family. I'm y'all hear me talking
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: about my family all the time. I'm really close to
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: my family. So I have family. So I have black
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: women that I can go to and that can nurture
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: and I can have conversations. But even there sometimes like
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: and then you go out into the world and it's
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: the same thing we are taught sometimes at being tough,
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: being hard, being negative, you know, pointing out the worst
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: first is helping to build someone to be strong. And
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: it's like no, And I think because we're taught that,
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: and that's how we're raised in our householders. It's a
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: generational thing that we then pass on to our daughters
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: and you know, things of that nature. But then we
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: take that out into the world. And I say we
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: because I know I've been guilty of it. Like listen,
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: I've been on the receiving side of it, so I
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: understand where Kelly Price is coming from. But I've also
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: been the person that's been throwing it out there as
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: well too, And a lot of times I'd be having
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: a correct myself, like, bro, you don't know what you're
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: contributing to right now by doing this, by saying this
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: a little joky joke, a little hei he, y'all know,
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: we good for a little key key Okay. One thing
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: black people are gonna be good for. You don't want
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: to sit downe at the space table with us if
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: if you ain't talking tough enough, and we're gonna have
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: a little key, key, But it does get to a
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: point sometimes where I don't even having to check myself, Like, yo, bro,
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: my grandma used.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: To say, is that's your mind or your manners?
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: And I literally have to think about that to myself sometimes,
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: like Okay, you're going too far?
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Why?
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: Like?
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: What in you makes you want to have a person
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: feel that way? And I don't know what it is
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: about us man like, but we enjoy I don't even
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: know if we enjoy it. Maybe it's a subconscious thing.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: I don't even want to solve it. I don't even
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: want to answer that question. I want to ask you, guys,
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: black women, what is it that causes you to be
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: comfortable with getting online, getting on.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: These platforms and dragging other black women?
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: Because one of the things that I have from the
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: conversation I just showed you guys at the breakfast club.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: You know, I've learned two things.
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: I learned out of that conversation and the conversations that
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: came after, because I had a lot of black women
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: reach out.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: To me, and I had two things happen.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: I had a lot of black women telling me you
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: should not be having those conversations publicly, And then I
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: had a lot of black women come to me and
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: being like.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: I'm glad you said especially women my age and younger.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: I'm glad you said something, because why do we got
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: to be hate and put through hell to feel love
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: from another black woman? Like why does that always have
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: to be the thing? Like why does it have to
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: be like the you're fighting your it's almost like you
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: blood and blood out into the mean girl club?
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Like why does that always have to be a thing?
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: And then you know, for the women who are reaching
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: out to me saying you shouldn't have had that conversation publicly,
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: And that's what I'm seeing a lot of Kelly uh
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: Price's comments, Black women saying, Yo, this ain't all black women.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: Why would you even bring this online and make this
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: a narrative. It's not all black women. Nothing is ever all.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: But if it's happening, and it's happening in a you know,
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: in a in a way that it feels like it's
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: big to her, she decides to talk about it. Let's
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: talk about it because it is a thing. It does happen,
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: and we always have to act like it doesn't. I'm
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: tired of acting like it doesn't. I'm tired of having
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: to act like, you know, everybody's just so loving its sister,
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: I see you and black Girl magic, Brown Girl grinding, No, Yo.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: The the point in me having Brown Girl grinding was
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: I wanted people to realize, like, we don't even have
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: to all like each other, but were gonna be nice
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: to each other, especially publicly, because we should be able
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: to be at a point where we are educated, we
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: are moving culture forward, we are the taste makers. We
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: all know that the Black Girls is where it's at,
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: Like we all know this, right, but we can't go
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: somewhere and yelling from the mountaintops and then inside the
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: house where it supposed to matter, right like when we
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: rep in and standing for each other, we're throwing rocks
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: at a glass house.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Like it can't be like that.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: I've had to come to realize that, and you know,
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: my you know, as I'm getting older and I try
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: and put that out into the world because that's what
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: I want to come my way. But I'm gonna tell
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: y'all something, y'all rough as hell. Y'all be rough as hell.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: So for everybody that is commenting, you know, and you know,
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: because now outlets are picking this up and are throwing
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: conversation Kelly Price's way about what she should not have done.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: I think let's listen to what she's saying and get
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: to the root of the conversation.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: Are we mean to each other or what? And why?
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: And if the answer to that is because it's some
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: things that we're dealing with ourselves. Because I had to
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: take a look at at myself a long time ago
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: and be like, bro, what are you going through that
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: you have to project this to people around you? Or like,
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: what have you been taught that you need to unlearn
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: that you got to project this to people around you,
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: not every now and then. And I'm not saying because
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: sometimes sometimes you you know, people do need a little
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: bit of stop playing with me sometimes, So listen, and we.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Ain't gonna love everything.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: You're not gonna love everybody, But y'all get the gist
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: of what I'm saying, because when when I had that conversation,
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: it was so many people calling me being and to
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: be honest with you, I had conversations with people in
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: my own life after that conversation I had that were like, Yo,
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: this is how you feel?
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: Was our part of that? Yeah, you were?
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: And I couldn't say anything because We're also taught that,
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: especially if someone's older than you, you sit down, you
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: shut up, and you take that order. But all of
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: that cycles down into generations and generations and no, and
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying go cut your elders out. I am
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: not saying that, okay, because listen, baby, I ain't got
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: nothing for you of granny to go tell you get
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: the switch.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: But what I'm.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: Telling you is is that we should take more like
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: note of what we put out. And because you never
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: know how that's affecting someone up, I obviously just affected her.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: So how dare somebody come on her platform and say,
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: why would you talk about this? Because now this has
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: become the narrative, what about why are we doing this
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: to each other in the first place. I love being
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: a black woman. I love seeing other black women thrive.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: You know, I think one of the things I've had
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: to learn because I've always worked like I come from
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: a real family, and then you go out into the
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: world that has raised me to be. Ain't nobody gonna
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: break me down. It's me versus the world. And if
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: it is that, so be it. I'm gonna head up
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: chin high. Make up done, lip gloss on pumps on
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: that that's what we' given every single day. You will
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: never know what I'm going through over here unless I
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: decide to tell you. But you go out into the
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: world and the world begins to like break you down,
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: like as a black, especially if you're working in a
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: world like this is my first time in my life
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: where I'm able to focus on black people and black things.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Before that, I've always been like the only or the minority,
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: like you know, outside of being at Dell State University.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: So shout out to my HBCU.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: And that's why I think I enjoyed that experience so much,
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: because work wise and like professionally, I've always been in
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: spaces where I'm the only black girl or I'm one
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: of like few black people. So I've always had to
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: learn to kind of like tuck my tail a little
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: bit and just be happy to be somewhere when that
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: is not how I was raised whatsoever at all. So
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: when I finally got to a space where I'm like, Okay,
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: I don't got to do that. I can be happy.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: I can be happy to see, you know, somebody like
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: me doing well and sitting across from someone like me
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: or whatever. And then you start feeling and seeing all
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: of the like conniving and you know, like just all
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: of the the stuff Kelly Price is talking about the
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: discuss It's so sad sometimes and again this is not
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: all black people or black women, but baby, when you
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: feel it, it hits.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: And I think because we're black women.
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: We know a bit, like you know how to hit
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: that like that soft spot, you know exactly what, you
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: know how to read a bit, you know exactly what
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: to say to get someone to a point where it's
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: like they're going to react. I've had to tell myself
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: multiple times in public spaces, we can't do that to
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: each other. Like if we want to have a conversation
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: about what we don't agree on, what we don't like,
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: you may not love me, or you may not even
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: like me, or like what I'm wearing when I got
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: going on boom.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: We can do that.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: And jokes is cool, the jokes can fly, but it
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: gets to a point where it goes beyond a respected,
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: respectful conversation. It goes beyond a little jokey joking out
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: a personal attack and it's like you, why are you
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: attacking what you see when you look in the mirror,
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: And when it comes to black men. You know, again,
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: I think the only thing wrong here with the you know,
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: Kelly Price's words to me was it was so generalized
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: that you're going to hit people who don't deserve it
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: when you get on a platform and make things so general.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: But I will say, in my life and recently, I've
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: experienced black men who like can't wake to be like yo,
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: stop playing with her, period. But you do have you know,
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: the other, the opposite and all the things. And Kelly
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: Price said what she said, what she said again about
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: the black man. We don't even gotta get there. We
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: don't cause to me, I mean, I don't. I don't
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: even think that. I know too many men who play
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: in this field of commenting on women and you know,
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: all the things too much. I think the last time
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: in a public forum yet, the last time in a
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: public forum, you know, there was any serious thing where
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: there was conversation about me and it was involving another
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: black man, people were quick to jump to, no, we're
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: not gonna do that, And it wasn't because it was me.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: It was more so, this is a black woman and
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: you're a black man. That's supposed to be a protective
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: space for her, And we ain't even joking or keep
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: keying right now, because I know y'all be piss at
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: Charlottagne too. We ain't talking about him, though, we talked
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: about a whole other situation. If y'all remember some things,
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: y'all know what I'm talking about. Well, I ain't even gonna, Yeah,
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: we ain't giving the grace of all that over here,
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: of calling the names or whatever. But when I saw that,
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: you know happen, I was like number one, I had
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: to take accountability in a moment and say, I need
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: to be more responsible about what I even lend my time, attention,
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: thought and word too, because I don't even want to
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: put black men that I love in a space where
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: they feel like they have to jump to protect her,
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: jumping a line of fire. But again, a lot of
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: this stuff comes and you know, the black men that
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: I love that was ready to you know what I mean, Nah,
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: we're not doing that one with this one over here.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: That's something that they normally do.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: They're you know what I mean, they have black women
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: around them that they're building up and they're loving on
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: every single day. So even with black men again, I
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: think and I'm not you know, I'm not a black man,
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: so I can't speak for y'all, can only speak in
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: my experiences with black men. I think it's just a
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: thing of like how you were raised and who you
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: were raised around. Because again, it's that when you look
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: in the mirror, when you looking at me, you should
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: see your mom, your sister, your grandma, and your aunt
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: and your cousin somebody like That's how that's a stranger
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: on the street if it's a black man. If I
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: see someone in harms way or whatever. I'm not superman,
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: but that's literally what I see. I instantly go into them.
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: That could be my brother, men, that could have been
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: my dad, men, that could have been my uncle, my cousin,
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: like instantly.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: And that's all we want for y'all to do as well.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: And that's all she said.
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: I just anyway, in certain conversations when it comes to
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: women and their appearances, men should not join in on
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: like a little you have a little key key boom,
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: have your keykey and move on. But don't key key
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: too much, because now I'm trying to figure out do
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: me and you pe the same?
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Okay, y'all. So this has been.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: A very interesting topic today and I know I'm probably
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: gonna get some heat for some of the things I said,
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: but listen, I'm inviting all of the heat that smoke
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: because I think conversations like this they're good, Like it's
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: it's a good, healthy conversation to have. But anytime you
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: point the finger, someone's gonna be upset. And there's always
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: fingers being pointed back at you. So I already I
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: already know how this is about to go. But I
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: want to hear from you guys, So make sure you
• 22:47
