0:33
Speaker 1: Mm hmmm, woo woo woom. What's up? What's up? What's up? Y'all?
0:37
Know what's your favorite girl from A five four? Your
0:40
girl actually bringing you another episode of Black Girl interrupted
0:43
the podcast. Happy Wednesday. I hope everyone is doing phenomenal today.
0:48
I hope everyone is having an amazing, amazing day. But
0:55
before I jump into tonight's conversation, I always have to
0:59
do a mental health check in. I need to make
1:02
sure everyone is good. I haven't seen y'all in over
1:05
a week. Well, so let me back up. So, yeah,
1:08
it's been about two weeks. So the week before last,
1:12
we were without internet for like three days. Internet went
1:15
out I want to say, like Tuesday, and we didn't
1:19
get it back up until I want to say, like
1:22
Friday evening sometimes, so unfortunately I could not do my
1:26
podcast then. And then, for those that are new, I
1:31
did lose my dog last week actually a week ago today.
1:37
I found my puppy in the backyard dad, And that's
1:43
all I want to say about that regarding that. But
1:47
other than that, I'm doing well. I'm feeling great, I'm
1:50
feeling fantastic. I'm marvelous. But again, before I get started,
1:55
I do like to do a mental health check in
1:57
because I need to make sure everyone is good. I
1:59
hope everyone is having an amazing week thus far. So
2:03
before we jump into tonight's conversation, I always like to
2:06
play something empowering, something encouraging, something uplifting, to let you
2:11
know that, regardless of whatever it is that you're going through,
2:14
you are strong enough to make it through. So here
2:17
we go.
2:22
Speaker 2: It's an urge truth be told.
2:25
Speaker 3: Every champion has felt it, every president has felt it,
2:30
every king has felt it, every lion has felt it,
2:34
every winner has felt it, every soldier has felt it,
2:39
every victorious person who has felt it the urge.
2:45
Speaker 2: To quit. Don't you give up on your dread? I
2:54
don't care if you don't have the money, you don't
2:56
have the help, and you don't have the family for it,
3:00
and you don't have the background for it, and you
3:02
don't have friends for it. Don't you give up on
3:04
you dort dream pot, shoot do it, don't shoot do it?
3:08
Don't shoot do it. It may take you twice as long,
3:12
you may have to take courses and classes. You may
3:15
not read as fast, you might not move as quick,
3:18
you might not have as much, But don't you quit
3:23
don't you quit. Don't you quit. You do make a difference.
3:29
You do make a difference. You do make a difference.
3:34
As weak as you are, as tired as you are,
3:36
as many mistakes as you may, you do make a difference.
3:39
There is something they would lose if you were not there.
3:42
There was something that they would miss if you were
3:45
not there. You do make a difference. You do make
3:50
a difference. You do make a difference. Keep popping. It's
3:56
for people that are trying to hop their way back home.
3:59
Come ahead, how water going the best they can with
4:02
what they got. That that's what we are, going the
4:05
best we can with what we got. And we may
4:08
not break any ribbons, and we may not get any trophies,
4:11
but if we can learn how to hang on in there,
4:15
we'll be all right. I will not lie tell you
4:18
I feel like going on, But I had seen days
4:21
I did not want to get out in the bed,
4:23
didn't want to put on clothing, did didn't feel like
4:25
brushing my teeth. I've seen days so dark that I
4:28
just wanted to keep driving, and I didn't even care
4:31
where I ended up on what you called me?
4:34
Speaker 4: They came.
4:36
Speaker 2: And they passed, Then it came to pass.
4:43
Speaker 1: I kept.
4:46
Speaker 5: I kept it. I lost a lot of stuff, I
4:49
lost a lot of friends, I lost a lot of strength,
4:52
I lost a lot of curry. I lost a lot
4:55
of time, I lost a lot of money. But I
4:58
kept on my knees. I was still believing, pro I
5:04
was believing nor man. I was believing, be trying. I was.
5:12
Speaker 2: If you lose the job, keep the faith. If you
5:15
lose the spouse, keep the faith. If you bury your child,
5:18
keep the faith. If you have to downside, keep the faith.
5:22
If you have to move in with your mama, keep
5:24
the faith. If you actually wits in, keep the faith.
5:27
If you have to catch the bus, keep the faith.
5:29
If you have to dumb, keep the faith. If you
5:32
get sick, keep the faith. If you lose the kidneys,
5:35
keep the faith. If you got a heart trouble, keep
5:38
the faith. You might not get it no hard, but
5:40
you gotta keep your faith.
6:14
Speaker 1: I think maybe I needed to hear that today, everything
6:17
that's been going on, I've always remained stead fast in
6:22
my faith, and I've always kept the faith despite everything
6:25
that I have endured, things that I continue to endure,
6:28
things that I go through, my storms, But I still
6:32
come out victorious. So I again I want to say
6:37
to everyone, no matter what it is that you're going through,
6:41
keep the faith. Those storms don't last always, and y'all
6:45
know that sometimes it's just a test. Sometimes we get overwhelmed,
6:49
and I get it. I understand.
6:52
Speaker 6: You know.
6:52
Speaker 1: There are a lot of days where we just want
6:54
to give up, a lot of days where we want
6:55
to throw on a towel. But you can't give up.
6:58
Maybe you can't, you can and I give up. So again,
7:03
Happy Wednesday. I hope everyone is having an amazing day.
7:06
I hope your week has been great to you thus far.
7:12
But tonight's conversation is very, very very heavy. Let me
7:25
let me because I told myself I was going to
7:30
be able to do this. I was going to be
7:32
able to have this conversation tonight because I myself have
7:39
a black son, and I worry whenever he goes out
7:45
and hangs with his friends. I worry because we are
7:51
seeing far too many of our black boys that are
7:56
going to hang out with their white friend friends and
8:00
they're not making it back to us alive. In light
8:05
of the news of Nolan Xavier Wells, I will touch
8:09
on that next week. So tonight's conversation is black men deserve.
8:18
Speaker 6: To grow old.
8:21
Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
8:26
Speaker 1: Black men deserve to grow old.
8:31
Speaker 6: Mm hmm.
8:33
Speaker 1: I gotta pull it together because I said I was gonna,
8:36
I was gonna be able to do this, and I
8:39
can do it. July fourth, July fifth, we lost Nolan
8:52
Xavier Wells, but he is not the only young man
9:01
who has been out and outing with their Caucasian friends
9:06
and have died. H This is rough. This is a
9:19
very difficult, a very very very very very heavy topic
9:27
because when I've noticed that when we have conversations like this,
9:33
it's always, well, black men are killing other black men.
9:39
Speaker 6: We know that.
9:42
Speaker 1: Justice is also being served, but when it comes to
9:51
the white people unliving our black men, it's ruled as
9:59
a either a suicide or accident, and no one has
10:05
ever held accountable. We're seeing all of that unfold right now.
10:14
But I don't want to just talk about Nolan Xavier Wells.
10:22
I want to speak about Daniel Irving. I want to
10:33
talk about Daniel Irving, an eighteen year old that was
10:41
out with some friends back in April of twenty twenty
10:46
six and his body was recovered in the water. There's
10:58
been no media cover Rich as always, when it comes
11:05
to black boys, black girls, black men, and black women
11:09
that go missing, there's always little to no media coverage.
11:15
And I don't understand why do our lives not matter? Again?
11:23
Do our black men not deserve the right to grow old?
11:27
Do our young black men not deserve the right to
11:31
get married, have children, go on and live beautiful lives?
11:38
Apparently not.
11:42
Speaker 6: So.
11:42
Speaker 1: Before we continue into the conversation, here's a little brief
11:46
background on the death of Daniel Irving.
11:54
Speaker 7: Today night, the push for answers and the death of
11:56
a North Texas teen. Three months after the body of
11:59
eighteen year old Daniel Irving was found in Lake Gray Hubbard,
12:03
there's been an arrest in connection with the case. Our
12:06
Jala Washington breaks down the timeline of the last few
12:09
months ahead of an update from attorneys tomorrow.
12:14
Speaker 8: Photos from over the years are some of the few
12:15
things eighteen year old Daniel Irvings family has left the
12:19
body of the honorable high school senior who was on
12:21
the swim team, according to his family, was found here
12:24
in Lake Gray Hubbard nearly three months ago and hand
12:26
in Hans. Since losing him, his loved ones are desperate
12:29
for answers.
12:31
Speaker 9: As a mother, I knew something had happened to my child.
12:34
Speaker 8: On April thirteen, Daniel's mother says two males who were
12:37
her son's friends picked him up from their home to
12:39
go fishing. She says she couldn't reach him shortly after.
12:42
Speaker 10: I call.
12:42
Speaker 9: It takes my son multiple times and there was no reply.
12:46
I was immediately immediately hellong.
12:50
Speaker 8: The next day, on April fourteenth, she filed a missing
12:52
persons report with the Roulette Police Department. Daniel had left
12:55
behind his driver's license and money, which made her even
12:58
more worried. After police put out a community alert online
13:02
on April sixteenth, Daniel's body was found in ray Hubbard
13:05
Lake on April seventeenth, four days after he went missing.
13:09
Daniel's mom says police told her they couldn't ping his
13:11
phone before then because of privacy laws.
13:14
Speaker 11: They have been met with delays instead of accountability.
13:17
Speaker 8: Civil Rights Advocacy Group's Next Generation Action Network and Justice
13:21
Seekers are now working with the family and have criticized
13:24
how the Routlet Police Department has handled the case. The
13:27
group say one of the people Daniel was with before
13:29
he went missing came forward after his body was found
13:33
and said what happened was an accident.
13:35
Speaker 11: Daniel left a home with somebody, went out there Lake
13:40
Gray Hubbard with somebody, but nobody called his mother nor.
13:46
Speaker 8: Called non level one Police arrested nineteen year old Lucas
13:49
Roper on July ninth, nearly three months after Daniel's death,
13:54
and charged him with tampering with evidence with the intent
13:57
to ruin it.
13:57
Speaker 3: And even if he did drown, why did it take
13:59
you four or five days to say anything?
14:02
Speaker 12: And that's what the family is under stirred about.
14:04
Speaker 8: The Dallas Police Department is now taking over the investigation.
14:07
Ralei Police told NBC five it was unable to discuss
14:10
details while the investigation remains open.
14:12
Speaker 1: We are only here to ask for truth.
14:15
Speaker 8: Jayla Washington, NBC five.
14:18
Speaker 7: The nineteen year old arrested is no longer listed as
14:21
being in jail when we checked earlier today, and there
14:23
was no attorney listed for him. Civil rights groups are
14:26
now asking for transparency from Dallas PD as its agency
14:30
leads the investigation. The Daniels family attorney will share more
14:33
on an independent investigation tomorrow morning.
14:42
Speaker 1: So we have a eighteen year old young man who
14:47
left home on April thirteenth with two unidentified people. You've
14:57
only arrested one I bring with evidence. Let's let this
15:07
sink in for just a moment. Again, he left home
15:18
and didn't return home. Four days later, you find his body.
15:29
My question is, again, as the family has stated, why
15:34
are we unable to get transparency? One of the things
15:38
that I've noticed in a lot of these cases were
15:41
always met with pushback. We want answers, we want to
15:46
know what happened. And then you have these quote unquote
15:53
friends that are changing up stories. They say one thing,
15:59
they say something else, But again the families are still
16:05
met with pushback. So again, Damniel Irving, eighteen years old,
16:13
your body is found in the water, and like they
16:18
said in the video, no one called the police. You
16:21
didn't call his parents. What I don't understand is why
16:25
did it take for the mother If he left with
16:28
these two individuals. If you're seeing what happened to him
16:32
was an accident, why didn't you call the police? Why
16:35
didn't you alert somebody that right there alone is enough
16:39
to raise suspicions. If you leave with me and something
16:44
happens to you, the first thing I'm gonna do is
16:47
I'm gonna call nine one one I'm gonna try to
16:49
get in touch with your family, your friend, somebody. But
16:54
we're seeing this happen far too often with little to
16:59
no justice. I'm looking at a lot of these cases
17:04
where they're finding black men hung from trees. Black people
17:10
don't hang themselves from trees, and these stories, these cases
17:17
are being ruled as suicides. Again, where is the transparency
17:25
in all of this? And then some of these Texas Mississippi.
17:33
Anyone that's familiar with Mississippi, you know they are so
17:36
racist in Mississippi. We're looking at it right now. With
17:40
Nolan Wells, we're looking we're witnessing that. But now we're
17:47
looking at Diane Irving again, this young man went missing
17:51
in April. Why was there no media coverage? Were Why
17:56
are we just now starting to hear about these stories?
18:00
But yet, and I know people may take offense to this,
18:03
but yet we're still hearing about Scott Peterson who killed
18:08
his pregnant wife. They got documentaries and I'm just saying,
18:16
and you could take this how you want, but our
18:23
lives are just as important. That's not to discredit lives
18:27
that have been lost, But I want to speak about
18:29
the black community and why we get little to no
18:32
media coverage. I remember when my niece went missing. Her
18:37
story was skated over by a woman and her dog
18:43
that were found murdered in a park in Georgia. We
18:50
were told, oh, it's nothing we could do, she's over eighteen.
18:57
But Gaby Purtito, who I think was about that same age, billboards,
19:05
that was breaking news, interviews, everything. But when in the
19:11
black a black boy, black girl, black man, a black
19:14
woman goes missing, we get twenty seconds and that's it.
19:20
You don't hear no more about it. I'm very surprised
19:26
that Nolan Wells is getting as much coverage as he is.
19:31
I'm very surprised. I'm very grateful because I hope that
19:39
his case will blow the doors wide open for these
19:42
other cases of these black boys and black girls that
19:47
go on these social outings with their white friends, but
19:50
they're not returning home to us. But a lot of
19:58
y'all don't want to have that conversation. This could be
20:02
your baby that I'm sitting up here talking about. This
20:06
could be your nephew, this could be a cousin, a brother.
20:11
Wouldn't you want someone to get up and speak, wouldn't
20:16
you want more media coverage. Wouldn't you want people out here?
20:24
But we're not getting it. And that's the disheartening part
20:27
about all of this. I am so glad that Nolan
20:36
Wells is getting coverage. I am so happy, But I
20:42
need that same energy to be helped for Daniel Irving.
20:46
I need that same energy to be held for Gerard Jackson,
20:49
for Dionne Walton. We want transparency. We're calling for transparency.
20:58
We don't want to hear that, oh, well, there was
21:01
no fil plan. How do you know without a thorough investigation?
21:07
How do you know? Again talking about Daniel Irving, this
21:14
baby went missing in April, and I just heard about
21:21
this story about a week ago, maybe when they arrested
21:31
one guy for tampering with evidence. What does he say?
21:43
We understand it's an investigation, but again, this family has waited.
21:52
We're in July. This baby went missing in April, May,
21:56
June July. Here we are almost four months later, and
22:02
the parents are still left with questions, questions. We're definitely
22:13
gonna get into Nolan Wells, not today. I need a
22:19
moment to process m I need a moment of process
22:28
this with Nola and Wells. So we're definitely gonna talk
22:31
speak on him. But Daniel Irving, eighteen years old drown
22:47
in Texas. I want to say, not too far from
22:53
the city where Carmelo Anthony was found guilty.
23:00
Speaker 10: Yeah.
23:01
Speaker 1: So Daniel Irving again, eighteen years old, went missing April
23:12
thirteenth of twenty twenty six. Somebody was recovered April seventeen.
23:24
I believe one or two people have been arrested. I
23:27
know one person was charged with tampering with evidence, and
23:35
all he said was it was an accident. But what
23:38
was accident? What happened?
23:42
Speaker 6: What did y'all do to him?
23:46
Speaker 1: And missed me with that old he committed suicide?
23:49
Speaker 6: No, no, miss me with that.
23:58
Speaker 1: I'm so let me tell you, oh, I am so
24:00
sick oherent that narrative whenever they find a black person
24:07
hung somewhere or in the woods, or it was a suicide,
24:15
no foul play. I'm still waiting on justice for Kendrick Johnson,
24:23
that was the young man they found rolled up in
24:25
the gym matt in Georgia. We're still waiting for justice
24:28
for that family because there's let me tell you, there
24:34
is nothing in this world that will make me believe
24:39
that that baby did that to himself. I believe that
24:44
that footage was altered because we see him going to
24:48
the gym, but we don't see him come out. Then
24:52
all of a sudden, you find him head first, rolled
24:55
up in a gym map and the shoes are missing.
25:00
We're still waiting on justice for Kendrick Johnson. Still again,
25:08
no media coverage. When deaths like this happened to our
25:13
black men and I were black women, I were Black girls,
25:16
and I were black boys, we get zero coverage. I'm
25:20
still waiting for answers on what happened to Tamla Horsford.
25:28
That was that black lady who went to this sleepover
25:34
at her white neighbor's house, and somehow she ended up dead.
25:38
Out of all the women that were there, she was
25:40
the only one that ended.
25:41
Speaker 6: Up dead, the only one.
25:46
Speaker 1: So make this make sense to me, Make this all
25:50
make sense to me. I don't believe that that woman
25:57
went over there and committed suicide. They found this woman,
26:00
I believe at the bottom of the of the of
26:01
the patio. Out of all the women at this slumber party,
26:05
this sleepover, Tamala Horsel was the only one that was
26:09
that was that passed away, the only one. Again still
26:16
no media coverage, Still still no justice. You still have
26:25
a family demanding answers. We haven't forgotten, at least I
26:33
know I have not forgotten. And then we have all
26:40
these black men that they have found hanging from trees.
26:46
One young man they found his legs were broken. So
26:50
how could he climb up in a tree to hang
26:53
himself if his legs were broken? This is nick and
26:59
zero sense to me. All we're calling for and asking
27:05
for is transparency. Black men, black women, black boys, and
27:11
black girls deserve the same thorough investigation as the white counterparts.
27:20
Speaker 6: I said that.
27:22
Speaker 1: Some of y'all may not like that and say, oh,
27:25
she's being racist. No I'm not. I'm just being honest
27:30
and telling you my views and how I feel. Black men,
27:37
black women, black boys, and black girls deserve the same
27:40
amount of media coverage and investigative work as the whites.
27:46
When they go missing, we hear about it for two
27:50
or three weeks. Here we are John Bonnet Ramsey has
27:55
been dead how many years? And we're still hearing about her.
28:04
We're still hearing about lazy Peterson or they want to
28:07
give Scott Peterson a new trial. Why we know he
28:10
did it. But this is what I mean when I
28:15
say there's a difference when black people go missing versus
28:19
one White people go missing. White people get billboards, they
28:22
get put on flyers, they get documentaries, but when it's
28:28
one of us, we.
28:30
Speaker 6: Don't get that.
28:34
Speaker 1: If that's the type of things that we want, we
28:37
have to spend our money. I'm still surprised that so
28:43
much time and money was invested in carl It Russell
28:47
and she turned out to be a ball faced liar.
28:53
I'm surprised. But with carl It Russell, you made it
29:04
even harder for black people that go missing to get
29:09
any type of media coverage. You made it very difficult
29:13
because you lied, you weren't even missing. You did all
29:18
of that for what. But there are really truly black boys,
29:25
black girls, black men, and black women that are out
29:27
here missing. That's not being taken seriously. Again, Daniel Irving
29:38
body was found April seventeenth after leaving home with two
29:41
unidentified individuals. And this body was found in the lake. Again,
29:47
I didn't hear it. I just heard about this case
29:51
a week ago. Then we have another young man, Jackson,
30:03
who was at an outing, a social outing with his
30:07
white friends, and his body was found in the woods.
30:12
But they say, oh, it was a suicide. Not every
30:21
black person out here is suicidal. But Gerard Jackson, twenty
30:28
eight years old went to a concert and electric fiells Michigan.
30:36
I want to see. Let me get that pulled back up.
30:39
I want to say that's where he was June the thirtieth.
30:47
So here we are. So it was in Michigan. So
30:52
I was correct in Michigan twenty eight years old. It
31:01
was from Illinois. He went to confessor and they're saying,
31:09
so I apologize. He was reported missing July twenty ninth.
31:15
Let me go back and say that. And they found
31:18
him hanging in a tree. They say his wallet and
31:28
his keys was left in the rental car. Make this
31:35
make sense? They say, oh, preliminary that he died from suicide.
31:50
They said he was reported missing sing on June the
31:55
twenty ninth. They say his bible was later they're found
31:58
in a wooded area near his parked rental vehicle, and
32:03
troopers responded to Jackson's campsite after he reported an alleged
32:07
criminal incident involving a friend. They say he left his
32:17
cell phone, phone, and other personal belongs behind. Let's let's
32:28
let's double back on this one more time. So he
32:33
calls the police on a friend to report a criminal activity, okay,
32:43
and then he winds up there after this alleged criminal
32:52
incident that took place. They say he left his left
32:57
behind his cell phone and its personal belongs. Do you
33:04
see how a lot of these stories are in correlation
33:10
with one another. Or they left they mysteriously left their
33:13
cell phones behind. And let me tell you something, in
33:17
this day and age, ain't nobody leaving without their cell phone? Nobody, nobody,
33:25
I don't care what you say. Nobody, white, yellow, purple, black, orange, green, yellow.
33:31
Nobody's leaving without their cell phone. Nobody. People in this world.
33:38
Let me tell you something. We can't even function in
33:40
this world without our cell phones. Everybody your walk past
33:45
has a cell phone in their head, everybody. But notice
33:52
this seems to be the same em in Daniel Irvian's case,
34:00
Gerard Jackson's case, and Nolan Wells case and Daniel Irving's case.
34:07
They say, oh, well, we couldn't ping for privacy reasons.
34:11
What so you mean to tell me if you found
34:18
this young man's body in the water, wouldn't common sense
34:25
tell you again to ping? Wherever their last location was.
34:31
But you go and you tell the family you can't
34:34
ping it for privacy reasons. Doesn't sound like they're trying
34:40
to do an investigation to me. Sounds to me they're
34:42
trying to sweep this baby's murder under the rug. Then
34:47
you look at Gerard Jackson, twenty eight years old, who
34:52
went missing June. He was reported missing June twenty ninth
34:58
after a phone call to law enforcement for a criminal
35:05
activity on a friend. And then this baby's body is
35:12
found in the woods and they say, oh, he let
35:18
the cell phone, he left his personal belongings, I believe
35:21
the keys and his whilet we're in the car. Yeah,
35:32
So that doesn't sound a little suspicious to you. That
35:34
doesn't make you stop and question and say, wait a minute,
35:38
this is this doesn't sound right. This is not adding up.
35:51
So here's a little more information regarding Gerard Jackson, and
35:57
then we'll dip back into this conversation.
36:02
Speaker 4: Holliday quickly turning into a tragedy for a Covington County
36:06
family who lost their loved one in a drowning just
36:08
days ago on the fourth of July.
36:11
Speaker 1: My apology shoe the wrong story. Here we go.
36:16
Speaker 13: Police are investigating the death of a man who attended
36:19
the Electric Forest Music Festival near Rothberry. His body was
36:22
found this morning along a trail near the festival grounds.
36:26
Speaker 1: Police say the twenty eight year old from Illinois died
36:28
by suicide after leaving a group of friends and his
36:30
personal belongings back at the festival.
36:32
Speaker 13: Thirteen on your Sidze, Michael Martin joins us now after
36:35
speaking with investigators and witnesses Michael Juliette Lauren.
36:38
Speaker 14: The day before his body was found in this wooded area,
36:42
the man had been speaking with state police. Witnesses say
36:45
it was a fairly normal conversation who was trying to
36:48
report a crime that police now say they don't believe
36:51
ever happened.
36:53
Speaker 12: Some people in the community are worried for it outrightly,
36:56
as they should be, because you never know what you're
36:58
going to see or go on.
37:00
Speaker 14: After four days of music, art connection at Electric for
37:03
his twenty twenty six.
37:05
Speaker 12: It's a vacation for a lot of people, but we
37:07
all have to come back to our friends and our
37:08
families back home.
37:10
Speaker 14: The body of a twenty eight year old man from
37:12
Illinois was found just off a trail several miles southeast
37:16
of the grounds.
37:17
Speaker 15: I had to go get a ride to drop some
37:19
camping supplies off to some of the people I was with,
37:21
and he was talking on two state police officers the.
37:24
Speaker 14: Day before He's found a few hours before he disappears,
37:28
people like Hunter Rose see the man speaking with state police.
37:32
MSP says the man had called them to report a crime.
37:35
They investigated and say they found no evidence that the
37:38
crime ever happened.
37:40
Speaker 15: It seemed to be cordial and nothing seemed to be
37:42
too wrong or anything. He was just reporting something.
37:44
Speaker 14: Shortly after that, he took off in a rented vehicle,
37:48
leaving his friends in cell phone behind.
37:51
Speaker 15: Le're just wondering what's going on with him, and I
37:52
figured i'd let someone know I saw something, because you
37:55
never know.
37:55
Speaker 14: A reliable source close to the investigation tells thirteen On
37:59
your Side. The man's friends told investigators he had been
38:02
up for nearly forty eight hours and had been using
38:06
substances when he left. The rental vehicle was found near
38:10
the man's body, his wallet and keys still inside.
38:13
Speaker 15: We have some looking back to do on certain things,
38:15
I think, but Forrest is a great place. Don't mind
38:18
a couple bad things bring it down as a whole,
38:20
just like other things going on.
38:22
Speaker 12: You never know.
38:25
Speaker 14: State Police said in a statement that they extend their
38:28
sincere condolences to the man's family and loved ones during
38:31
this difficult time. If you have information that you might
38:34
believe could be relevant in any way to the case,
38:37
you can reach out to State Police. Michael Martin thirteen
38:40
on your side.
38:43
Speaker 1: So let's let us sink in for just a moment.
38:49
You're saying he was having a conversation with the state
38:54
police to report a crime against a friend or friends.
39:01
They say, oh, they didn't find any evidence of a crime, Okay,
39:06
But then a few hours later he's missing. The friends say, oh,
39:14
he's been up for two days on some kind of substance.
39:20
Has there been an autopsy? That's what we're trying to
39:26
figure out. Is there an autopsy other than the preliminary
39:34
where you say, oh, it was a suicide. But as
39:40
wild and keys were left in the car and his
39:43
body was found not too far from the vehicle, that
39:49
doesn't sound suspicious to you. Again, I've seen no additional
39:59
updates regarding this young man. Let me go back, let
40:03
me just double back. I'm gonna see but no, our toopsy,
40:10
No nothing, I'm looking give me just a moment. We're
40:15
gonna see. We know the family is demanding justice, they
40:22
want a full investigation. Hmm.
40:34
Speaker 6: This is just.
40:38
Speaker 1: H How much more of this do we have to
40:42
continue to endure? When are we gonna started getting again?
40:51
And I'm gonna repeat this and I'm gonna scream it
40:54
from the rooftops. Why no justice when it comes to
41:05
these mysterious deaths of our black men, black boys, black
41:11
women and black girls. Again, it's always ruled as a suicide,
41:21
no foul play. Wasn't that the same thing they said
41:25
with Nolan Wells? And now look conflicting stories, text messages deleted.
41:39
Let's see we have so Gerard Jackson, he said soon
41:57
after report onto his fingerup. It says Jackson moved himself
42:02
away from the group after reported missing. It says at
42:12
this time, a final report from the medical examiner is
42:15
waiting to be released to determine the cause of death.
42:18
But we know what they're going to say. It was
42:28
a suicide. We knew they say it all the time
42:33
when our black men and black boys go missing. That's
42:41
what we see and that's what we hear every time.
42:52
But at what point do y'all say our lives matter again?
43:00
I don't want to hear the but y'all kill each other.
43:04
Speaker 2: We know this.
43:07
Speaker 1: But one thing that we do know is justice is
43:10
always served. Because we know Ray Ray Shapuki. We know
43:16
that Ray Ray gets sent us to the fullest extent
43:21
of the law. But when you have a Jared or
43:27
a Timmy that unalyves one of us, it's foul play.
43:37
Their family members are related to a judge, or they're
43:42
somehow connected to someone in a higher position that wants
43:48
to sweep this under the rug. But at what point
43:54
do we stop allowing them to do this? At what
43:58
part do we at what stands do we finally come
44:02
together and say enough is enough. We need justice for
44:06
our black boys, our black girls, our black men, and
44:08
our black women. When are we gonna come together and
44:12
start demanding this. When are we gonna stop accepting the
44:18
bare minimum When it comes to what these medical examiners
44:22
and what these police officers and these crime scene investigators
44:25
tell us, we just say, Okay, well, yeah, it was
44:31
a suicide. You're just gonna lay down and take that
44:37
no again. At what point are we gonna finally come
44:45
together and demand justice. Why haven't we come together to
44:51
get justice for Kendrick Johnson. Why haven't we come together
44:54
to get justice for Tamla Horsford Again, you have families
44:59
that are still left with unanswered questions. You have families
45:05
that are still out five six, seven, eight, nine, ten,
45:09
eleven years later, still trying to figure out what happened
45:12
to my loved one, especially when they've been out at
45:18
social gatherings with their white friends. We're seeing this way
45:27
too often, and yet everybody's wanting to be silent. Everybody's
45:33
willing to just take whatever they tell you. Oh, well,
45:38
he died from suicide. Okay. We have to stop being
45:47
so quick to say accepting of whatever they tell us.
45:53
If this is your child, if this is your loved one,
45:57
you should want justice and you shouldn't stop fighting. Push
46:03
for it to be on the news stations. Push for
46:05
it to be on these on get on social media.
46:10
I'm encouraging y'all. If you see a story like this
46:12
that's in your city, in your town, your state, we
46:15
can't see everything, start sharing, because that's the only way
46:22
we're gonna be able to take us stances. If we
46:24
know about this, we have to start rallying together. We
46:29
have to start coming together for things that make sense.
46:32
Start standing in line, in line for five, six, seventy
46:35
eighty nine, ten hours for an iPhone or some Jordans
46:38
or whatever new item that's coming out. And let's go
46:41
stand at these polls. Let's go stand up at these
46:46
judicial sit at these hearings, these public hearings. Most of
46:52
the point, we gotta go to the polls, because it
46:55
starts at the lower level. If you want to see
46:57
a change in your city, in your town, and your state,
47:00
you gotta go to the polls. You understand, you gotta vote.
47:03
We are the people responsible for putting these judges in
47:07
their seats, for putting these chief of police in their positions,
47:11
for these city council We're responsible for that. When you
47:15
get a summons for jerry duty, go stop saying, oh,
47:19
I don't want to go to jerry duty. Why that's
47:23
the only way we're gonna be able to make a difference.
47:30
But we're so far forgetting, we're so forgiving that we
47:35
just take whatever they tell us. I'm not accepting the
47:37
fact that Gerard Jackson committed suicide because it's too mysterious
47:43
that after he reported a suspicious crime to the group
47:47
of friends that he was went to the police. This
47:49
baby ends up dead. You have Daniel Irving, eighteen years old,
47:55
who left his home April thirteenth. We're two unidentified people. Again,
48:00
we don't know if it was two males, two females,
48:02
a male and a fee. We don't know. Four days later,
48:06
this baby's body is found and the police tell the family, oh, well,
48:11
we can't trackt opinion for privacy issues. What if this
48:16
baby was if this baby's bottle body was found out
48:20
here in the water, what was he at prior? You
48:23
don't think that's imperative to the investigation. You don't feel
48:26
like that's not imperative to the family. And then we
48:32
look at Nolan Wells text message is deleted. Kid's stories
48:38
are changing, but y'all are willing to just sit back
48:42
and just take whatever. No, when are we gonna start
48:46
standing up for our black boys, our black girls that
48:49
were black men, that were black women. When are we
48:51
gonna start standing up for that? When are we gonna
48:54
start pushing us to the forefront? When are we gonna
48:56
start pushing these stories to the forefront? Again, here we
49:00
are twenty something years later, and we're still hearing about
49:02
John Bane Ramsey. Here we are ten years later, however,
49:06
many years we're still hearing about Lady Peterson. That don't
49:14
make you sick, That don't make you upset. We've heard
49:18
nothing more about Tamla Horsburg. We've heard nothing about Daniel Irvy.
49:23
We've heard nothing about Gerard Jackson. We still hear nothing
49:30
about Kendrick Johnson. What about the other young lady who
49:37
they found drowning, Who's I want to say? She had
49:42
went out with her babysitter, her white babysitter in this
49:45
little girl was found dead in the water. If you
49:54
could get this is the issue that I have with
49:57
social media. Social media could be a good and a
50:02
bad thing. But some of the shit that you're excuse
50:08
my language, but some of the stuff that y'all post,
50:15
But y'all won't post about these black boys that are missing,
50:20
these black girls that are missing, these black women that
50:23
are missing, these black men that are missing. But y'all
50:27
always have so much to say when we finally do
50:31
hear about it, But yet you do nothing. You do
50:38
nothing but sit and complain. You won't go to the
50:43
polls and vote. Because I've seen quite a few of
50:47
them on my time on my Facebook timeline. Or I'm
50:50
not voting, my vote doesn't matter anyway, I'm not going
50:54
to jerry duty. Okay, you're not well, then don't complain
51:02
when you could have made a difference. Don't complain when
51:10
that particular person is the chief of police. Stop complaining
51:18
when this particular person is the judge. Stop complaining when
51:23
this person is on a city council or your school board.
51:26
Don't complain because remember, your voice don't matter. Remember that's
51:31
what you say. But then you get up here and
51:34
your hoop and holland you say, oh, we gotta do this,
51:37
we gotta do that. Well, then if you're not doing anything,
51:39
you're a part of the problem. See me, let me
51:43
tell you something about me. I've never had a problem
51:46
with shaking the table. I've never had a problem with
51:48
putting things on the forefront. I've never had an issue
51:50
with putting things on a table that are uncomfortable for
51:52
a lot of people. Because see, y'all don't want to offend.
51:56
I don't mind. See I get out here and I
52:01
do this, I vote, even at the lower level. I
52:10
get up here and I have these conversations some that
52:13
y'all shy away from because again, you don't wanna offend.
52:19
But one thing about me, I'm aa always stand for
52:23
the ones that look like me before I stand for
52:25
anyone else. And you could take that how you want,
52:30
but I'm gonna protect me. I'm gonna look out for
52:32
me and those that look like me. I want justice
52:39
for Nolan Wells, I want justice for Gerard Jackson. I
52:43
want justice for Daniel Irving because you know why, Gerard
52:48
Jackson could have been my son. Daniel Irving could have
52:50
been my son. Nolan Wells could have been my son.
52:53
Dione Walton could have been my son. He could have
52:55
been your son, he could have been your brother, he
52:57
could have been your cousin. But you don't say anything
53:05
because you don't want to offend. Don't you think we're
53:10
offended when these stories come out, and again we get
53:14
little to no media coverage. As I said, when my
53:19
niece went missing, her story was passed over for a
53:22
woman and adult that were found dead in a park.
53:29
You don't think we didn't try to fight with the police.
53:31
You know what they told us, Well, she's over eighteen,
53:36
she's an adult. We can't do anything. Police knew who
53:45
to go look for. You think they did no. And
53:50
not only did he kill her, but he murthered another
53:54
young lady. And it could be others out there. But
54:00
this is what we do. I bring these types, I
54:04
bring these topics and conversations to the forefront so we
54:07
can talk about them, so we can discuss them. We
54:11
have to have these conversations because it's too many of
54:14
our children that are leaving out but they're not coming
54:17
back home. Nolan Wells could be your son. You could
54:26
be that parent standing on the other side of that
54:28
podium begging and crying for justice because your child passed
54:33
under mysterious circumstances. I don't want to let me tell
54:37
you something. I don't want to high powered attorneys out there.
54:41
I don't want none of that. I want my community
54:45
to rally with me. So I'm asking y'all, this could
54:52
be your baby, this could be your son, your nephew,
54:57
your cousin. Start speaking out. Stop being so afraid to offend.
55:06
I don't want to put that because I don't want
55:08
to be what I'm gonna have this conversation because at
55:16
the end of the day, I does I believe black
55:20
men deserve to grow old. And again, I've had this
55:25
conversation before, and you know what I've heard again, But
55:29
black men kill each other. They're killing each other. We
55:31
know this. You don't think we don't know. You don't
55:35
think we're not tired of that either. But one of
55:38
the things that we're very tired of is that when
55:41
Jeffrey or Michael or Paul kills Daniel or Gerard or Nolan,
55:52
we get no justice. Or when Brett kills Hendrick it's
56:01
an accident, it's suicide. Stories ain't matching up, timeline ain't
56:10
coming out like it's supposed to. But this is this
56:14
is what we see every day. I tell my son
56:20
every day when he goes out with his friends, be careful.
56:26
Make it back home to me. We got parents right
56:33
now wondering what happened to their child. They're wondering, but
56:46
nobody wants to have that conversation. Y'all keep saying enough
56:52
is enough. This needs to stop. Then what are you
56:54
gonna do? Just keep posting about it on social media?
56:58
Are you gonna really get up and do something? Are
57:00
you really going to get up and be a part
57:01
of their community? M Are you going to be a
57:11
part of the problem or a part of the solution.
57:16
That's the million dollar question, because again, you could be
57:23
sitting on the other side of that podium, begging for
57:27
justice for your child, calling on the community to come
57:33
in and help and rally. Say I'm not new to this.
57:42
I do this, do I post and brag about it
57:45
on social media? Note for what not everything needs a
57:51
video camera and not everything needs to be regarded. But
57:57
a few times that I have shared, y'all have seen
58:00
me at these rallies, protesting, marching because I gotta think
58:09
about mine. I have three children, three black children, so
58:20
I'm gonna do whatever I have to do to stand
58:22
up for them for their rights, not just theirs, but
58:26
your child's rights. So I get out here and this
58:31
is what I do. I have these conversations. I'm not
58:36
afraid y'all don't want to do it because you don't
58:41
want to offend nobody. Y'all just post what looks good
58:48
on social media, but y'all not really about that. Yes,
58:53
I'm calling y'all out.
58:57
Speaker 6: Again.
58:57
Speaker 1: Do you want to be a part of the problem
58:59
or part of the solution. We have to start demanding things.
59:10
We have to stop settling for whatever it is, They
59:13
tell us again, I look at Gerard Jackson's case. Shung
59:24
Man was twenty eight years old. I look at Daniel
59:32
Irving eighteen years old. I look at Dionne Walton seventeen
59:41
years old, drowned in a lake.
59:53
Speaker 6: No media coverage.
59:58
Speaker 1: And he died the same weekend as New Wells. Yeah, seventeen.
1:00:12
Can we call.
1:00:14
Speaker 4: Holiday quickly turning into a tragedy for a Covington County
1:00:18
family who lost their loved one in a drowning just
1:00:21
days ago on the fourth of July. Wd Agen's Robert
1:00:24
Smith Junior has the latest.
1:00:26
Speaker 16: The stomachs of Jason Walton and John Walden turned after
1:00:29
they were at the store getting food to grill out
1:00:31
for the holiday when they got a frightening call from
1:00:33
their nephew, Dion Walton's football coach, that he went missing
1:00:36
in a community lake.
1:00:38
Speaker 17: He was like, hey, Jason, where you guys are. I
1:00:41
was like, well, we just got home from the grocery store.
1:00:44
And he was like, you guys need to get here asap.
1:00:47
And I was like, well, what do you mean and
1:00:49
he was like, it's involving Dion.
1:00:51
Speaker 16: They went to the community lake off Harmony Church road
1:00:54
in Coventon County, where Walton was with some of his
1:00:56
teammates celebrating the holiday.
1:00:58
Speaker 17: We've seen all these polices there and then we pulled
1:01:01
into the driveway on the side of the house, and
1:01:04
then I saw the rescue squad. They were boat divers
1:01:09
searching out there into what I'm like, why are these
1:01:12
people out here? And so he parked the car and
1:01:14
I rushed ran to the dock quick, and I was like, well,
1:01:20
one of the parents came up. I said, what's going on?
1:01:22
Speaker 16: His family says they were told. Walton and some friends
1:01:24
jumped off the pier into the lake to see who
1:01:26
could swim to a small island in the middle of
1:01:29
the lake the fastest. But Dion struggled as he was
1:01:32
cramping in the water. After turning back towards the pier,
1:01:35
calling for help, trying to grab onto a floaty, he
1:01:37
was already starting to sing underwater.
1:01:39
Speaker 17: The parent that owned the home, he said, he rushed
1:01:42
out there to the pond and he jumped in to
1:01:44
try to look for him, and all the other players
1:01:45
turned around and tried to search for him, and they
1:01:47
just could not find him. And I was just I
1:01:53
don't know, it's a lot. It's just it's not even real.
1:01:56
Don't even seem real to me.
1:01:58
Speaker 16: Family says Dion was a mediuker swimmer and he was
1:02:01
used to pools, but not lakes where you can't see
1:02:03
the bottom. Although this is a tragedy, family says, there
1:02:06
is one message that comes out of this.
1:02:08
Speaker 1: Be careful.
1:02:09
Speaker 10: That's I mean, you don't want to put the message
1:02:11
out there that says, hey, you know, don't get in
1:02:14
there on this holiday or you may suffer these consequences.
1:02:20
That's that's not the message.
1:02:21
Speaker 5: The message is.
1:02:23
Speaker 10: Be careful and try to take there cautions and everything
1:02:26
that you do. Maybe, you know, if I know him,
1:02:31
get maybe get the life rap.
1:02:33
Speaker 16: His uncle say his teammates loved the un To know
1:02:35
him was to love him. He was a seventeen year
1:02:37
old student at straw In High School who ran track,
1:02:40
played football and basketball and.
1:02:42
Speaker 17: He just had, you know, so much of you know,
1:02:46
a brightness of future ahead of him. And it just
1:02:51
sucks that it happened, you know, what happened on Saturday,
1:02:54
and he just he had so much more to give.
1:02:57
Speaker 16: Family says he was full of energy and life, love
1:03:00
to rap and sing, be acting.
1:03:02
Speaker 10: But that's that's a teenager, but he brings them in
1:03:06
with that smile on that laugh, and that's what most
1:03:11
people will remember and miss.
1:03:13
Speaker 16: All the school will have a vigilant memory of him.
1:03:16
Friday Night in Coventin County Robert Smith, w DH and
1:03:19
news for the White Grass.
1:03:24
Speaker 6: It just.
1:03:28
Speaker 1: All these black boys just devastates me. That's one of
1:03:42
the reasons why I think I pray so hard over
1:03:46
my children, is because I see what's going on out
1:03:51
here in the world, and these kids are just not
1:03:58
making it back home. What should be a night of
1:04:03
fun somehow ends in a night of tragedy.
1:04:14
Speaker 5: What do we do?
1:04:18
Speaker 1: Where do we go from here? What can we do
1:04:25
now proactively? How do we truly seek justice for these children?
1:04:41
When there's lack of transparency, when there's conflicting stories, when
1:04:47
phone numbers I'm sorry, when text messages are being deleted,
1:04:57
they keep asking us do we care? Do y'all care?
1:05:07
It hurts my heart when I see these stories, knowing
1:05:13
that I myself was only other than the social media
1:05:18
asking social media to help find my niece, and only
1:05:29
a handful of people shared. But then when I expressed
1:05:35
that she had been found but was deceased, and it
1:05:40
was Oh my god, We're so sorry. It's the help
1:05:51
of convenience, is what I call it. But when it's
1:05:57
one of your loved ones, then oh, please help, please help,
1:06:01
please help, stop picking and choosing.
1:06:07
Speaker 6: Who to help.
1:06:15
Speaker 1: Again. I'm so grateful that Nolan Wells family is getting
1:06:22
the coverage and praying that they receive the justice that
1:06:28
they so righteously deserve. I continue to pray over the
1:06:34
family of Daniel Irving. I pray that your baby gets justice.
1:06:47
For the family of Gerard Jackson, I pray your family
1:06:50
gets justice. I pray that Kendrick Johnson's family will one
1:06:59
day get you justice. For Tamela horsef It's family, I
1:07:06
pray you get justice for the countless other families who've
1:07:16
lost their loved ones and mysterious manners. I pray you'll
1:07:25
get justice. I will always stand on the side of
1:07:33
black men deserving to grow old. Mhm. This is heavy
1:07:55
and it hurts my brother says. We have to rewire
1:08:01
our current way of thinking in this new society. Absolutely,
1:08:09
because this justice for this family is so deserving. Again,
1:08:18
Kendrick Johnson has been gone. Let me see. I'm gonna
1:08:21
tell you, Kendrick Johnson has been gone since twenty thirteen,
1:08:34
thirteen years later, and this family still has gotten no justice.
1:08:48
We look at Tamla Horsford. Tamla Horsford has been missing.
1:09:01
I just had here we go twenty eighteen, almost six years.
1:09:21
There see that this lady was in that this young
1:09:26
woman was intoxicated and fell from a balcony, but her
1:09:36
official cause of death was ruled as multiple blood force injuries.
1:09:44
They saved from an accidental fault. But again, Tamla horsef
1:09:50
was at a sleepover with one, two, three, four, five, six,
1:09:56
seven white women, and you mean to tell me she
1:10:01
was the only one that died. But no one can
1:10:08
seem to say what happened. Oh, she was drunk, she fell.
1:10:14
If this is your friend, why didn't you make sure
1:10:17
she got in the baby or got upstairs or wherever
1:10:20
it was that you ladies were sleeping. You have a
1:10:26
family is still waiting for justice. You do, and then
1:10:41
you have this beautiful, beautiful let me tell you. Let's see.
1:10:59
Oh her babysitter, I believe she was thirteen or ten.
1:11:14
Let me see if I could find a story here
1:11:22
she was eleven years old. Angelique Cunningham, is this baby's
1:11:31
name Angelie Cunningham. I couldn't remember the baby's name, but
1:11:46
Angelie Cunningham is her name. Let me pull this up
1:11:52
really quickly, and this was July the sixth, because what
1:12:05
I want to know is why at that time of night,
1:12:24
I want to snighttime, taking eleven year old child on
1:12:36
a boat ride on the night of July first. Why
1:13:03
they say it was consistent with drowning, but they say
1:13:13
it's accidental. So again, the woman was only charged with
1:13:29
felony child endangerment. But again, make this make sense to me,
1:13:44
because who in their right mind we'll tak an eleven
1:13:48
year old child on a boat ride at eleven o'clock
1:13:52
at night? Something suspicious about that. I pray for Angelie
1:14:04
Cunningham's family that justice has served, that the truth will
1:14:11
come out about what really happened with this baby, because
1:14:21
out of the three people that were on the boat,
1:14:23
only one left. But that's just me. Maybe that's my war.
1:14:30
Twar's the way of thinking. Maybe over thinking. I don't know,
1:14:34
But again I'm still trying to make it make sense
1:14:36
as to why this eleven year old baby was on
1:14:42
a boat ride at ten thirty eleven o'clock at night.
1:14:50
But hey, who am I'm just a podcaster. So tonight's
1:15:02
episode will continue. There will be a part two because
1:15:06
I really want to get into the Nolen Wells case
1:15:12
and speak about the updates that we have regarding this
1:15:19
young man's odtopsy and the undetermined cause of death. I
1:15:27
want to know your thoughts. How do you feel? Do
1:15:37
you feel like it's something suspicious? Do you feel like
1:15:41
maybe this was an accident, or do you just not
1:15:44
feel anything at all? Hold on to those questions because
1:15:54
we definitely have to have a part two of this
1:15:57
because again, I really, really, really truly want to get
1:16:01
into this about Newel and Wells, because this case brings
1:16:13
near deer into my heart.
1:16:19
Speaker 6: But you hold that.
1:16:23
Speaker 1: So as I bring tonight's episode to a close, I
1:16:28
want to end by saying to my black men, you
1:16:37
are so wanted, you are so needed, you are so loved.
1:16:46
You are greatness, You're spectacular, you're phenomenal, You're imperfectly perfect.
1:16:57
But most importantly, I love you. And I do want
1:17:02
to see my black men grow old. I want to
1:17:06
see my brothers with their grandchildren, great grandchildren, live long,
1:17:13
beautiful lives, flourish in your careers, reach every limit possible.
1:17:24
That's what I want to say to my black men,
1:17:31
because you're great. You're phenomenal. I don't even think there's
1:17:39
enough words in the dictionary to even describe black men.
1:17:48
Some of y'all get on my nerves. Some of y'all
1:17:50
do stuff you ain't got no business. But you know what,
1:17:52
I love you anyway, into my black men, I got you.
1:18:06
I walk with you, I stand with you. I open
1:18:12
up a circle of safety for you black men, take
1:18:22
care of yourself because regardless and I've said this so
1:18:28
many times, regardless of what the world says, regardless of
1:18:32
what society says about black men, I still love you.
1:18:41
I still honor you, I still cherish you. Yes, I
1:18:46
will uphold you in your wrongdoing. But I'm gonna love
1:18:49
you in the midst of all of that, because you
1:18:54
black men deserve that. The world is so unkind to y'all,
1:19:02
and I don't like that. M Black men, you rock.
1:19:14
Not just the black girls rock, but you black men.
1:19:17
Speaker 9: You rock.
1:19:20
Speaker 1: I love you, God bless you. M So tomorrow night
1:19:33
we're gonna kick it off early because I know we're
1:19:35
probably gonna be talking about Nolan. I know we're gonna
1:19:38
be discussing Nolan Wills, and I know this is gonna
1:19:41
be a very very very deep and imperative conversation, but
1:19:45
I want y'all to stay with me. I want you
1:19:48
all to continue to like, share comments, subscribe, tell your
1:19:51
friends what we do over here on Black Girl, interrupt
1:19:53
that podcast. Don't forget there are house rules. You will
1:19:59
be respectful on this platform. If you're not respectful, I
1:20:04
will remove you. I will give you a fair warning.
1:20:14
If I have to tell you again, I will remove you.
1:20:20
And then if I have to tell you again, I
1:20:22
will block you Tomorrow. Night's conversation is very imperative that
1:20:29
we have because we're seeing this story happen over and
1:20:35
over and over and over and over again and nothing
1:20:40
is done. So it's now it's time for us to
1:20:44
take a stand. Now, it's time for us to start
1:20:48
standing up and stop falling for anything and everything that
1:20:51
they tell us. We have to start demanding justice. And
1:20:58
when I say demanding justice, you have to be willing
1:21:01
to roll and roll and walk and through the trenches
1:21:06
because this could be your child, this could be your
1:21:10
loved one that I'm sitting up here having a conversation
