• 4:04
  Speaker 1: me and him winning the business together, and you know
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: I gave. I gave everything. Um, I even went and
• 4:09

• 4:14
  Speaker 1: god own truck and everything, and he went behind my

• 4:21
  Speaker 1: An accountant was out me everything, and all I am.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: I'm left with nothing. I had to I had to
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: even fail where I was living at. I'm back with
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: my parents, like I'm starting. So y'all, y'all didn't have
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: a contract with each other. No, he was my own boy. Me.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: We and him went through like three jobs together, you know.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: He introduced me. We met at the same job. He
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: found another one, got me on, and then I found
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: a prod of one so we could get our class
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: A cels and I brought him with. I just wanted
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: your own boys. I just want to say, man, I
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: had started a business with somebody I was. I don't
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: known since I was like it in fifth grade. But
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: you know, in the future, because I do feel bad
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: that this happened to you. Make sure you do an
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: operating agreement when you start a business with somebody, because
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: you have to have your paperwork right. You never know
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: what might happen that way, legally you'll be able to say,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: but even though you could be best friends, family members, married,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: but if you do have a business together, do make
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: sure you have an operating agreement and have a real
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: lawyer invest in that because when things go left, you
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: need to make sure. And a lot of times things
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: do go left in business. You don't even want to
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: have to have that conversation. It's just all in the paperwork. Yeah.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: See now I feel now it's like, you know, I
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: want to get back to that state. Like I said,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: I'm sort for Brown. I ain't never, I ain't giving up.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: But right now you've got something to prove. Yeah, yeah,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: I won't get back to that stage, but I want
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: to do it. I mean I'm gonna do it myself.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: You know you got this. You learned a lot, You
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: learned a lot, yea, Yeah, I already taking a L.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: Right Yeah no, yeah, you took it L. But that
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: L also means learning from it. Yeah, it's a learning experience.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Good luck, brother, Hello, who's this? What's up? Man? It's
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: big room and man St Louis absour but roaming get
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: it off a chap, bro man. I just want to
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: say first off Man, appreciate everything y'all do love all
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: the y'all, especially my girl answer thee but her the
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: announcement for the super Bowl performances, man, and I was
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: like you, I wasn't hype man, and then get on
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: the radio. We got this negative Nancy Charlotmagne, the kids
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: are Man, it's kind of you know, ain't the wrong
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: that performances? Man, I think it's gonna be a good show.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Let me let me let me ask you a question, sir,
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Why do you think it's negative to ask why our
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: legends in hip hop have to share a stage collectively
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: when you got people like the Katie Perry's of the
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: world and whoever else who don't even have the resume
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: they do, they get their own solo show. And I
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: asked the question. I said, I wonder if that was
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: a prerequisite in performing, because they don't let acts like
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: that performance to super Bowl, Let's be clear. So I
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: was wondering, was that a prerequisite? Are you know? I
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: just asking a question, that's all. Besides besides maybe like
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Michael Jackson or Whitney Houston, it's always been shows where
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: artists are coming home with rock groups with rappers out
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: there with him. So this ain't the first time that happened. Man.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Everybody except Marry is from Cali. Man, so Emm is
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: not from there's from Detroit. Shout from there. But then
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: he's been on all West Coast music. That's straight. That's
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: not true either. But my point is if you're not
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: wondering that, then you're just not thinking. I was just
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: wondering why they had to do it as a collective.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: I love the show. I think it's a great lineup,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: but I'm just wondering why you had too. Man. I
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: love you too, dog, I appreciate it, but thank you
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: for calling in. I said this morning. When I heard that, man,
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: I was hyped, and Bro, you from Saint Louis. Correction, Uh,
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: he's from Saint Louis, right, yeah, yeah, start look look
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: at look at property in Saint Louis. Real estate in
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Saint Louis is at a good price right now, and
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: it's starting to increase a lot. So look at real
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: estate in Saint Louis. That's my next stop. All right,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: right on, Man, make an announcing when you're coming at y'all.

• 8:04

  Speaker 1: I'm I'm honored right now. Congratulations. Thank you so much
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: for the documentary on Video Music Box. Yeah, I watched
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: it yesterday. I was I was hungover, so I was
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: laying on the couch and I just turned it on.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Oh good, thoroughly enjoyed it, enjoyed it to stay. It
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: was really great here in the Tri State area. I
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: remember it was Video Music Box and it was new
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: York hot tracks. Yes, yes, yeah, you're showing your age
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: now with New York. I have cable, right if I
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: wanted to see videos, the only place back then you
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: really could see it if you caught one of those shows.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah thirty one, Yes, Town thirty one and you know, look,
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: this has been something that we've been wanting to do.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: I've been working on this project for ten years. So
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: we went through a bunch of hoops to get to
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: showtime and Massiphill and then Nas came in and said,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: I want to get this right. And I almost cried
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: when he said that, because I was like, what are
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: you talking about, bro? How do you go through all
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: that footage? Yeah? Because you have a lot of footage. Now,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: if you don't know video music boxes, it's a video
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: show that started off playing hip hop videos where nobody
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: else would. Right, it was on it wasn't on cable,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: so it was Channel thirty one, one of the high channels,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: and after school we'd all run home to go watch it. Yes,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: but you have footage of years. Man, how did you
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: go through the footage to decide what you're gonna put
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: in this documentary? Because the documentary was what ninety minutes.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Ninety minutes. Yeah, it went to me for three hours
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: and it would have been interesting, but you know, showtime
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: was like easy, take it, easy path. So but you know,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: we filled up that ninety minutes with so much stuff,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: and you know, so many interviews were left on the
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: editing floor. It was difficult to really shave it all
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: down to ninety minutes. But you know, you got the
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: eighties and the nineties. I said, the nineties are super important.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: Let's make sure that we got the nineties and makes
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: make sure we got them more of that than the eighties,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: because there's a lot more people around from the nineties,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: so let's touch on that. And I liked the nineties
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: era myself. About perspective, such a such a full circle
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: moment for you to you didna this first video? Yes,
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: and then for him to be executive producing this with
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: with massive pill man, how did that feel? Um Naas
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: came in and I looked at him and I said,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: you know, you know, this is something that I think
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: you're going to enjoy. And originally he was the executive producer,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: he wasn't the director, and then he's somewhere in the
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: middle set. Now I'm going to direct this and I
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: want to get this right, Ralph, and and I just was,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: you know, it was, you know, like I did. It
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: ain't hard to tell. The first single Wolf of Illmatic.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: I directed that and this thing called it ePK, which
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: was really the thing that really broke NAS in New
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: York because it was like an interview with all the
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: producers and all the people that were involved. I went
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: to his house hung out in Queensbridge. It was just
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: like a little short documentary that I did not So
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: now he's doing, you know, my thing, and I'm like bugging.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: I'm like wow, like this is the God. Yeah, it's
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: one of those things. It's like, Yo, you never know
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: who's gonna be who. That's why you should show everybody.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Everybody love key key. You know. We see people all
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: the time that come up, and I always show people
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: respect because I don't know, first of all, because I'm
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: from the street and I understand respect the street, you know,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: because we got to go out there in these in
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: these blocks all the time, you know, and I'm like,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: we don't want no problems out here, so I never
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: know who's who, and let's continue to respect him. And
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: I think that people say, man, you be out here,
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: you know, you on the av and you in this place,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, you don't got no bodyguards. They'd be
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: looking around like where do I'm like, I'm good, what's up.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: I was gonna ask that you ever got into any
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: any any problems because like with Fat Joe said under
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: the documentary, yeah, you know, I'm on my block, and
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: they say Video Music Box got a party down the block.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: And you were in the Bronx, You went in Brooklyn,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: you went to la you went to you went to
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: the hood, you on Jamaica Avenue, you you were in
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: the hoods. Did you ever have a problem at all? Um,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: you know, we probably did. But my man Beasts, Yeah,
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: you highlighted them in the day. Yeah, but Beast is
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: not like my security. He was my friend, you know,
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: like we weren't like you know people. He did security
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: for all these other people like that. You know, he
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: became known for White Claugh and everything. And he's known.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: He's in the shot his movie and everybody knows him
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: for shot is because he blows up the whole place
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: is he's acting, right. But but Beast was official, you know,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: you know, he's official cat, you know, and and so
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: we kept guys like that. They just hung around it.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: I tell you tell people this, A lot of not beasts,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: but a lot of the other guys that worked with
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: us all had come home from jail. They needed an opportunity,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: and I said, loo, I'm gonna give you'all opportunity to
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: work with me, but you can't screw it up, you know.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: And most of those guys took it and ran with
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: it and did the right thing. Now, Video Music Box
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: was really just in the Tri State area, but people
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: knew about it from all over. Why do you think
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: it never ended up going national? Well, in the dock,
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: I said that. I went to MTV and there was
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: this concert called The Fresh Fresh and I went there
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: and I was like, I saw a mixture of everybody,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: so white people, black people, Asian people. I was said, Oh,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: this is happening right now. And I went to MTV
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: and they were like, no, Middle America is not ready
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: for this, Ralph, you know, it's not happening right now.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, there's a tour, it's going out. I
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: got the videotapes, take a look at it. And they
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: were like, no, you don't. You need to pull out
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: the tapes, It's okay, we already know what we're gonna do.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: And then two years later they did, you know, MTV
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: raps and you know, and people thought, oh, you got
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: me tight right now, And I wasn't tight then. I
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: was gonna type the first time because I knew that
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: it was happening already and they could have had to
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: jump on it. So my whole career I've been a
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: little bit early. But you know, whatever it was gonna
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: be was what it's gonna be. How did you get
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: paid original from Video Music Box because there was no
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: commercial We was doing three or four parties in the night,
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: you know, and you know, just walking away with the
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: money and going, okay, we're good. Yeah, you're explaining the
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: ductor you never actually made money off the show? No, no,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: because it was at first it was on a PBS
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: channel and so it was non commercial, which was great
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: really because it gave us the opportunity to educate where
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: you know, you can't really do that in commercial world,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: Like we had no time for that. We got a
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: round commercials, bro we ain't trying to help the community,
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: you know, you know, we we wanted to do a
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: lot of that and we did do that in the show.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: So it was a balance of both and that's how
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: we got through, um, you know, being on that station.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: We got more with Uncle Ralph, Ralph McDaniels when we
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: come back. Of course, he's the creator a video music box.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. Good Morning, the Breakfast Club Morning.

• 14:52
  Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Uncle Ralph Charlomagne.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: You know, you got the video of bigging NAIs Freestyle
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: and you know Jay and Big in the club all great,
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: But what is your most prized piece of footage. M hmm.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: That's a good question. Um. I think for me, Um,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: it's probably Big and Jay when they did the My
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: Birthday because that was really kind of like out of
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: the blue and Jay came and was hosting it and
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: they and they were both at the early stages of
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: their career. Was like the beginning of Rockefeller and the Big,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: you know, beginning of Big, you know at Bad Boy
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: and and they just in the place was crowded. You know,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: this is when people got dressed up and they danced
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: at clubs. Remember that, and you know, it was just
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: one of those nights where you were like, I couldn't
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: call that any better than that. That was That was
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: a beautiful night. You know. It was like everybody, your
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: peers were there, you know, just you know, one of
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: those one of those shows that was just it was perfect.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: But you didn't realize that those two individuals would become
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: these mythical yeah, you know beings that they are now
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: right right? You always say, you know, people always ask
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: me what if they was alive? What would that be like?
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: Between him and Jay and Nas? Like what would that
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: you know, what would that look like? And I don't know,
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: you know, like I mean Nas, you know is you know,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: like I'm a fan of like you know, poets and
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: you know, and Naz is that that kind of spiritual
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: kind of thing. You know. That's how when he started
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: doing my thing, I was like, this is a spiritual dude, man,
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Like I'm gonna be in a good place, you know.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I see. I used. All I was saying to Nas
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: was we gotta have that hip hop soul bro. No,
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: you know, because I watched documentaries and I'm like, this
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: is mad generic right now? We noticed everybody if people
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: notice all this information. We don't need to go through this.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: Let's get into different stories. And that's what I wanted
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: to do with this, and he was like, got it,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: and he just started working and making sure that the
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: direction took the right direction because we know, yeah, it
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: was the Bronx, and we know there was dances, and
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: we know graffiti, we know that already. We there's more
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: stories to us than that. You know, to me, the
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: soul comes from your footage, yes, you know what I mean,
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Like your footage throughout gives it that warmth, makes it
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: you know classic. Yeah, yeah, nah, I mean, and I'm
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: I'm super happy that you know that we still have
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: the footage because I thought about that too when you
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: whenever you showed the room. I'm always think about what
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: if he'd lost all of that the way really lost
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: all that, right, Yeah, yeah, Rizz, you know, loss so
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: many of his masters. But you know we've been in
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: the last One thing about the pandemic is it got
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: me to be around and really work on digitizing all
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: of this content. So I just was like, yo, I
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: gotta get this done. And we started a nonprofit, the
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Video Music Box Collection, and we started raising money for it,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: and you know, and people started, you know, giving us
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: a couple of dollars. We're still raising money for I
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: still need money for people, give me some money. But
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: we that is what helped us get to the point
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: where we have. You know, you can look at this
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: content and be like, wow, it's pretty clear. You know
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: thirty years ago. You know, you remember the DVD day
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: all of that. You know, there's guy's out there that
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: can have content that is super important. Man restore it,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: take care of it. Our history, hip hop history is important.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Your history is Black history is important. But you know,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: sometimes our stuff just gets pushed to the side. There's
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: been so many masters and visuals that have been lost
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: over the years, and it's like, wait a minute, somebody
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: just threw that away right because they didn't think it
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: was important. Like who did that? You know happens all
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: the time. A Part two, Since you said you do
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: have a lot of footage that you weren't even able
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: to use for this one. Yeah, I told um showtime, like, yo,
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: we could do two, three more, you know, and some
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: other stories that we got in the books. So that's
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: on the plate for twenty twenty two. I would like
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: to see artists talk about those moments more like I
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: want to just hear nas go more in death on
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: the Big thing because he said something and the doctor
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: I didn't know. He was like, yo, him and Big

• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Saint John's University and was a fan of Video Music
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: Box when he was at Saint John And Jake Cole
• 19:14

  Speaker 1: Music Box to be remembered? The whole idea of this

  Speaker 1: you're watching Video Music Box film was to not be forgotten,
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: because I could easily see how our history is forgotten

• 20:17
  Speaker 1: little bit of a break, a little bit of three
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: minutes of a music video or a shout out is
• 20:23

• 20:30
  Speaker 1: bunch of money. And they're certain people whenever they call,

• 22:06
  Speaker 1: white supremacist boom now was denazification of perfect solution to
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: fixing Germany. No, but not celebrating racist was a step
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: in the right direction to actual healing. Well, Decratifying America
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: be easy. Hell no, because America really really worships his
• 22:24

  Speaker 1: happened in Germany, like like I just explained, they got
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: rid of, you know, pretty much all Nazi ideology from
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: you know, everything from culture to education, the politics. America
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: has never even taken a step to do that because
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: we still celebrate racist We still celebrate biggests by having
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: their names on buildings, by having highways named after them.
• 22:47

  Speaker 1: to wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: So okay, So my name is Terry. I teach people
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: how to invest in stocks for income. And I'm so
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: excited because I feel like people are ready for this now.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: Like twenty twenty, everybody realized their finances weren't quite in order.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Then twenty twenty one they were like, Okay, let me
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: start paying off my dad a little bit, maybe invest
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: long term. And now twenty twenty two they're like, you
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: know what, I got a little bit of savings. I
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: have a little bit like ready to invest, but I
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: don't know what to do with it. So that's where
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: I come in. What did you learn? First? What did
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: you learn all of this? Because this is stuff that
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: you know, like you know, Charlemagne and I will talking
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: behind the scenes. They teach these to our kids now,
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: but we didn't have that knowledge. So where did you learn?
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: How did you get into the love of stocks and
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: making money? Honestly, I'm similar. I was born with single mother.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: We didn't know all this stuff either. But I went
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: to a program in high school called Lead and it
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: was where they took kids from all they all over
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: the US that had good PSA T scores and then
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: took us to business schools. So I went to Northwestern
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: University and they took it to the Chicago Stock Exchange.
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: So my senior year I had learned at Northwestern. Then
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: Google had their IPO, And when they had their IPO,
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: I asked everybody asked my mom, I asked my teachers.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: Nobody knew how to invest, and the shares were eighty
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: three dollars. IPO, imagine that man, Like now they're almost
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: three thousand dollars. Like my whole life would have been
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: different if we had known how to invest. So that
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: got me excited. Then I went to MT and said, well,
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna figure this out myself because nobody knew how
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: to do it. Went to M I did not till now,
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: and we didn't have money either. So I'm so much
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: more accessible now too, with all these apps that make
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: it a lot easier for people to be able to
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: trade to definitely, and they don't have cost now, so
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: now you can get in without the high commission feed
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: so you can trade for free. There's no barrier to
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: injury now. And you've got a whole sea change here,
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: especially in our community. And that's what's so exciting. You
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: have sixty percent of blacks under forty now invested in
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: the stock market and the gap is closing now. Yeah,
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: the investment gap closed in the millennial generation. That's really
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: making history. So we're starting this whole invest in You campaign,
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: which we'll talk more about take your first trade challenge
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: because we have participation now, but now we have to
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: add education to that and teach people how the market works.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: And then we can really, particularly our community, cause US
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: sea change if we just collect our forces and move
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: them together. But I'm glad we're talking about this today
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: because one, I've was the first black and the woman
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: to report from the New York Stock Exchange way too
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: long ago, and a lot of y'all new investors have
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: never seen a bear market before, and we don't want
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: you freaking out and pulling out in their bear market.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: So it's really important that we're having this conversation now.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: That's why I'm excited too, because a lot of people
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: were scared coming into the last couple of weeks of
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: the first couple of weeks of January, coming into twenty
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: twenty two, the marks have been down and if people
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: who are invested in stocks or crypto, they're hurting, right,
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: And so now I think they're scared. And then like
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: seven people, Black people are seven times more likely to
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: pull out when it's bad, and you see all these
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: articles that really scary, they'd be like bitcoin is crashing,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: you know, we don't know how long this is going
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: to be around, and then some people doubt it, other
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: people who have gotten rich off of it and been
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: able to utilize it. So is it time to bube
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: when you see everything falling? Yes? So, Warren Buffett says,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: so one. A lot of black people only think that
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: you can make money in the stock when they're going up,
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: but you can actually make a lot of money when
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: it's coming down. That's called short selling. Everybody says buy low,
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: sell high. You can actually do that in the other
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: like you can sell high first and then buy low
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: second and still make the difference. Same thing. That's called
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: short selling. Yesterday I made forty six thousand dollars because
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: I was able to short sell. Well, we made money
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: going up and then on the way down. Before that,
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: we made money going down. Could you walk us the
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: way a short cell? Yes. Say you borrowed my cell
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: phone and then you sold it to dj Envy for
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: a thousand dollars. Now you go on eBay and you
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: find the same phone for five hundred dollars. Well, you
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: sold it for a thousand, you sold it high, but
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: then you bought it back low for five hundred. You
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: got to keep five hundred dollars. That makes sense, but
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: all in one day you can do it over. It's
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: trading just the same way you can trade sat okay. Yeah,
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: So like, for example, if a lot of people were
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: in Tesla recently, if they had sold at twelve hundred
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: dollars and then when it came back down to a thousand,
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: they could make that difference and then you pay taxes
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: right when you pay taxes. But it's the same as
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: you pay taxes on any job. So like I paid
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: myself a salary from my course. It took out right.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: So maybe we know our taxes up here are are crazy.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: But let me see this. But you can reinvest back.
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: If you reinvest and don't take it out of the
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: stock market and put it somewhere else, then you don't
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: have to pay taxes. Is that How does that work? Well,
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: that's the same for real estate. Like if you you
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: could buy a house sell as long as you put
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: it back into another property, you ain't got to pay
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: tax at that moment exactly. But with stocks you do
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: still have to pay. You any realized gains, you're gonna
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: have to pay taxes. You pay tax on what you earned.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: But I think just to take a step back for
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: a second. There's a difference between trading and investing, and
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: a lot of us we talk about the stock market,
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: and I've always talked about the stock market is a
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: great long term investment, which it is over time averaged
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: about ten percent a year, which means like if you
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: wouldn't invested one hundred dollars at the start of this
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: pandemic and left it alone and not added anything else
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: to it, it would have been one hundred and eighty dollars.
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: A general rule of thumb for investing is that any
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: money that you will not need in five years or
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: less should be in stocks, and you should look at
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: it long term, and that's when you wanted to build
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: like a comfortable retirement and create financial security. Trading, what
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: Terry is talking about is very different, and that's where
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: we need, you know, people like her and people with
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: her skills to walk us through that. She actually gives
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: people a trading plan and a risk management plan, and
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: I think that's why her course is sold over forty
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: million dollars. You know, made over forty million dollars in sales.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: You of course made over forty million dollars in sales.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: It did I'm the number one investing course on teachable, well,
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: number one course period out of hundreds of thousands of courses,
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: and it's on investing how to invest for income? All right? Now,
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: keep a lack. We have more with Terry Egioma in
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: Stacey Tisdale, So don't hold it's the breakfast Club, go
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: more forty. Everybody is DJ Envy Edge Lee Charlomagne the guy.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: We are the breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: Terry Egioma in Stacy Tisdale, Charlomagne, let me ask you
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: a rich as a question, right, um for the average
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: listener that's listening right now, all audience, and they want
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: to invest, right. I think I read a study with
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: like over fifty percent of all Americans are living paycheck
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: to paycheck? How do they do that? So I think
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: that there's prerequisite to when you start investing versus trading. Okay,
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: I think as a as an investor, So like I
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: saw you all had uyl and Market Mondays and Wall
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: Street trappers, love all of them when you're and they
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: teach long term investing. When you're investing, you can invest
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: with any amount, like if you have hundred dollars, Hey
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: go buy so OXL or AMD whatever educational purposes only
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: not recommending stuff. But but if you're a trader, you're
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: going to have to try to make a percentage of
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: the cash you have. So I try to teach people
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: to make one percent of their cash amount. So I
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: think you do need about two thousand dollars in your account.
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: That's why I said, now in twenty twenty two, I
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: feel like people are ready. I feel like they've done
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: the long term investing and now they have some money
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: saved up and they want to make that work versus
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: just putting it in a savings account. So then it's like, okay, well,
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: how do I pay for the things that I want
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: versus the things that I just have to settle for? So,
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: for example, how do you pay for I saw y'all
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: had change for change? How do you pay for your
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: rent going up because of inflation? How do you pay
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: for A guy had a hurricane, there was a hurricane item,
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: you guys gave him money? Well, how do you pay
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: for emergencies or daycare? I saw one of the girls,
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: she had like eighteen hundred dollars she was paying for daycare, Like,
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: how do you trade the money you have to pay
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: for those things. So I do think it takes. You
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: have to start with money at least two thousand in
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: your account, and then your goal as a trader it's
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: going to be to make one percent of that on
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: a regular basis. I'm glad you said that. A lot
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: of people just think you can. I don't know what
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: they think, but you gotta have money to even do
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: these things for trading, For investing, I mean an there's
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: apps and out that you can invest long term. When
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: it comes to trading, Like you're hearing all these stories
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: of people hearing like get rid of quick the whole
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: game stop thing, and they're doing things like taking out
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: credit card debt and spending their whole life savings to
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: try to get in on this trading thing. One, you
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: should never do it without an education or a guide,
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: and also never trade more money than you could afford
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: to lose. But it's like it's it is like gambling,
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: So you should talk about how to make it not gambling. Yeah,
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: there are ways to protect your risk, but a lot
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: of people just don't know about them. Yeah, So a
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: big part of my trade and travel class is risk management.
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: First step is. I'm a technical analysis trader, so I'm
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: not just betting on something or not even use the
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: word bet, but investing. It's not let's go right. My
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: grandmama said at the barbershop, you know, it's like no,
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: it's actually looking at healthy company. So first, that's one
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: big part of it, what companies are investing in. Then
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: we have to look at reward to risk race shows.
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: So I'm looking at charts. I am a technical analysis trader.
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: I hear a lot of people say like, oh, charts
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: are too hard. I don't look at that. But if
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: you want to have high probability, I know. I'm in
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: my tea girl like we like, did y'all ever see
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: the movie twenty one? It was about in my tea
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: group that went in card Counted and then in Vegas.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: But like, one of the things he says is he's like,
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: we don't gamble. We just take really high probability calculated moves.
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: And that's what we're doing with charts. That's how you
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: get more high probability calculated trades. So looking at your
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: reward to risk in advance, you can actually calculate on
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: a chart. When I get into this trade, the probability
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: that I do well is three times my reward is
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: three times my risk. Then the other part of it
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: is there's something called a stop loss, like being able
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: to put in um if it drops to a certain Yes,
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: and that says, and I know you have an investing club,
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: so you know this. But if it drops to a
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: certain place, you can get out of the trade. I
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: think a lot of people are getting into stuff with
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: no exit strategy right and then, and it's an automatic
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: thing too, like once it gets to this certain point,
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: it'll pull out. Yeah, it'll let you know to pull out.
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: You have that stop loss in in advance. You can
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: calculate how much you're willing to lose. Trade and travel
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: came from you traveling and trading. So can you talk
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: about that? Yes, I was in education. My last job
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: before I quit was assistant principle of elementary school. But
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: I was miserable. But anyway, I decided that my ex
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: strategy would be investing because I had learned about it
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: in college. I had learned about it in high school. Yeah,
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: and all I needed was three hundred dollars a day
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: to replace my income. And you started with that's what's
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: really important when we're talking about trading. She had a goal. Okay,
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: I need to earn three hundred dollars a day, so
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: that's how much she was going to risk. But also
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: one of the things that so touching about you is
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: you also wanted to trade because to cover your parents'
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: medical costs. Yeah, well, let me finish this because I
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: want to tell you about the trade and travel. Like
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: I was finally able to quit my job and start
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: traveling around the world, and people started asking me, well,
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: how are you affording it? And it was I was
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: trading stocks. I would trade to pay for the hotel room.
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: I would trade. Okay, my flight is three hundred or actually, like,
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: let's say I want to go to Greece. I calculated
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: all this on Instagram, Like if y'all scroll scroll way
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: down on Terry Geoma, Like, the trip to Greece was
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: thirty five hundred dollars, So I traded to get there. Wow,
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: I said, okay, this is how much the hotel room is.
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: If I can make, you know, four hundred dollars to
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: pay for the hotel, now I'm gonna I'm gonna want
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: to eat when I get there, so I'm up trade
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: to pay for the food, and that's how I traveled,
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: and I was gone. I went to South Korea, Thailand
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: for a month, Vietnam for a month, Australia, but all
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: that time just trading what I needed to pay for
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: the travel. And now people ask me to teach them,
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: and now I'm teaching them how do you trade for
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: what you want? I love the fact that you didn't
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: stay in a job that you hated, because what happens
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: is your growth resentment, and you was you was with kids,
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: so you'd have been projecting all of that on those kids.
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: So I really, I really respect that part of this story.
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: Thank you. And I feel like I was because I
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: remember this one little I had mainly black, black and brown,
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: this one little Huspanic girl, she was cutest. One day,
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: she must have seen me crying in the bathroom. She
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: came and gave me this flower that she had made
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: in class, and she just came in the biggest hug.
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: I know they saw it. Well hopefully I was asking
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: it good enough. But yeah, that's why you're a good trader,
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: you exactly, And honestly, those skills helped you develop a
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: course as well. You know what the biggest things that
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: helped me develop the course were my mistakes when I
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: first quit my job and was traveling full time. I'm
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: not gonna pretend like it went well all the time.
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: Like when I first quit, I had my biggest loss ever.
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: I invested in Pandora, and Pandora stock just went straight down.
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: But at the time, everybody says invest with what you know,
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: and I was. It was on my phone and Pandora
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: was going inside of the TV. And this is like
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: Pandora stock it is not around anymore because they sold
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: to Serious X him. So you can do this right.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: But like every like, I woke up overnight I had
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: traded earnings thinking I was gonna be rich the next today.
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: Woke up the next day and I had lost twenty
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: six thousand in a day. And for an educator like
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: I didn't have a ton of money. So I was
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: crying thinking I had to go back to work. And
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: the thing was, I realized all the things I had
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: done wrong. My quantity size was too high. This is
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: back to risk management quantity size. I had eight thousand
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: shares and the thing was, I thought I was gonna
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: be reached the next day. So eight thousand nine if
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: I make a dollar I got no, but I lost,
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: and so overnight it was down three dollars. I'm down
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: twenty four thousand. So that first lesson is don't do
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: what you can afford to lose, yes, and watch your
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: quantity size in the course, actually have a formula. How
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: do you calculate your quantity size? Then another thing that
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: I did wrong was not having to stop loss. It
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: fell and I didn't have any protection. Then I didn't
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: have a plan of okay when I didn't even have
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: a target in mind. So once it started falling, I
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: just flipped out. I called my mom, was like, I'm
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: gonna having to get a job again, and and I
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: just let it go and it kept falling. That's right.
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: That's why you need a trading plan so that you're
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: not managed by your guts and emotion. But you know
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: the steps. The biggest money hopefully more will come another day.
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: But the biggest money flow I had in my life
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: was when I worked at a technology firm and they
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: gave us stock options. I remember, overnight I was like
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: a millionaire on paper and these options went to whatever
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: but I and I wasn't familiar with them, so I
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: had no plan in place and started dropping and dropping,
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: and you just get that mentality, Oh it'll go back up,
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: Oh it'll do whatever went to nothing. There's a lot
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: of people that are that's that's happening to them right now,
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: especially with crypto and even some stocks. They've they've been
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: told so long to just buy and hold, which is
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: over time, a good strategy. But what what do you
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: do for your life right now? You're rich on paper,
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: but you're broken your real life. And that's why trading
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: is important because we can help you to fund things
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: in your life right now while the other things are
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: still working. All right, Now, keep a lack. We have
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: more with Terry Egioma and Stacy Tisdale, So don't move.
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: It's to breakfast Club morning. Everybody's DJ Envy and Jela Yee,
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: kicking it with Terry Egioma and Stacy Tisdale. Now, how
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: much is your course? How much is the lesson? It's
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: five thousand? Have a VP eight week program that's five thousand,
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: but you can get in for half of that at
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: twenty five and we have payment plans. I saw something
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: and correct me if I'm wrong. You made over sixteen
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: thousand people millionaires. That just no, all together, we've all
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: those sixteen thousand people in the course are making millions,
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: and they actually like show us screenshots of how they're
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: realized profit, and they're like showing us. So we have
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: this thousand dollars in a day club. If they make
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: over a thousand dollars in a day, they send us
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: their screenshots, send us their trade, and then we send
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: them a plaque. So we know that we've had over
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: sixteen hundred in that club that we've sent plaques to,
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: and many more than just haven't sent in the screen shots.
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: So we know if you got even a thousand people
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: making a thousand dollars in a day, then that's a
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: million dollars that we can generate in a day from
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: trade and traveling. Now, for people who are like this
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: is expensive, can you explain why it's worthwhile? Because the
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: classes that I took were thirty thousand dollars, so the
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: actual investing knowledge is actually really expensive. This is a
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: discount to that. So when you look at the like
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: what other classes are out there, and some people will say,
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: well what about YouTube? Migraining told me sometimes you have
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: to pay for convenience, Like, yes, you can go to YouTube,
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: but it might take you a lot of time. You
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: may not know what exactly you need. You get in
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: too much information yet, what's true, what's not? So this
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: is all into one class. I've already detailed out what
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: you need in terms of how do you pick the
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: right company, what's the risk management? How do you do charting?
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: How do you do short sellings? Make money on the
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: way down? How do you do gaps and globecks? How
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: do you trade options? Like everything's in there. It's actually
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: not much when you look at the their courses out
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: there and then think about how much you can actually make. Right,
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: A lot of the students within a couple pay for
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: themselves back. Yeah, That's why I asked you about the
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: sixteen dollars because those success stories are important because people
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: are here that number and be like, well, she made
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: forty million dollars. Who was she made rich? She's just hustling. Yeah, well,
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: and several of them have become millionaires. I do know
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: some that I have made millions, but I just don't
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: I don't want to say like, I don't want to say, oh, yeah,
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: I made a whole bunch of millionaires. No, I've taught
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: a lot of people how to make three hundred dollars
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: in a day, two hundred dollars in a day, pay
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: for which good money. It's about those goals and you
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: don't have to do that way too. You can't take
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: the course and not do the work. Goals and freedom,
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: And I know when you first started trading, one of
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: your goals was that you're like, your mother couldn't afford
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: a anesthesia? Oh yeah, back to work, yes, for dignity.
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: So um, anybody here had to ever do a like
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: really expensive medical thing, like what operation? Pay for an operation?
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: My mom was her dental work. She had to get
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: like all your teeth taken out, and it was really expensive.
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: I don't work. Yeah yeah, most insurance only covered I
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: think like maybe a thousand dollars for clearing for root canal.
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: Or if you pay for somebody's cosmetic it cost a
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: last day that's out. The poet either what cosmetic? And
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: just like she was in pain, but the doctor had
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: told her that they were gonna do the surgery without anesthesia. Yeah,
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: no way, but I thought she couldn't afford it. They
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: were like, oh, well, you know anasc is gonna cost
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: you like an extra five hundred dollars. The nurse was
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: basically telling my mom like, well, you can't get this
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: surgery because you can't afford it. And my mom, because
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: I had actually given her money for her medical bills,
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: was able to say, no, that's fine. I'm gonna get
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: all four of them done at one time. And she
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: told me, Terry. She called me something else, but she
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: told me, Terry, money can't buy you happiness, but it
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: can buy you dignity. I was able to be in
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: that chair and speak up for myself because I could
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: afford the surgery. How time consuming is it to trade?
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: It depends what your goal is. So if your goal
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: is to make two hundred dollars in the day and
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: your account size is okay, you might be done in
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: fifteen minutes. But I do say people should, especially in
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: the beginning, you should budget at least four hours a day.
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: If you can't do that, like as you start getting
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: better and better, it'll go down. Like some people they'll
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: do one hour in the beginning of the market and
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: they'll trade that, or they'll trade that last hour of
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: the market. I do think, like when I was an educator.
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: I would look at my phone. In the beginning of
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: the day, I'd go do whatever I had to do
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: as a principle, come back check it at because you
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: can trade in your phone. I would check it at
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: lunchtime that didn't take long. And then at the end
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: of the day at night before I went to bed,
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: that's where I would do my real homework of looking
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: at the stocks, looking at the news, looking at the charts,
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: and then i'd be ready for the next day. Right,
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: so when they open in the morning, you know what
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: you want? Yep. So what's the call to action? I
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: look here for a call to action today, I'm going
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: to teach people how to actually get invested in take
• 50:50
  Speaker 1: the first trade, okay, because I feel like there's a
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: lot of people that are just scared and they haven't
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: done it yet, and they're looking for like, Okay, I
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: need somebody to like a teacher, to like walk me
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: through step step. So we're gonna do a five day

  Speaker 1: you can get the income, but so that when Google
• 51:14

  Speaker 1: I'm in. So you guys gonna take your first trade challenge?
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: I am. And you said we should have at least
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: two thousand dollars, right, I got somebody who doesn't for me?
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: You know what? You know what it is. I'll be
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: honest with you, Right, I always feel like I go
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: to professionals to do something, so I hire people to
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: do certain things, right, because I can't watch it, like
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: I got too many things. So I hire people to
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: look at my stocks. I hire people look at real estate.
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: I hire people to do different things because I don't
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: have the time. But that's more of an investing than
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: at trading. This is this is new year, right, it's
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: all making money. Yeah. All the whole thing about the
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: stock market is, you know, do your long term investing
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: and leave the trading for the professionals. But everything changed,
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: as you know, trading became more mainstream, and technology changed everything,
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: and people are trading now, and now what they have
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: to do is do it with some education, do it
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: with some guidance. And that's why wouldn't people hear things
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: like five thousand dollars for a course and think of
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: it as school you're actually learning because there's so many
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: people like get people like that's the reason why we
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: even started doing the real estate seminars, because people with
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: charging people so much money but not teaching them stuff,
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: you know, I mean, and then saying okay, after you
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: get to this point, you need another thousand dollars for
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: this and another, And that's why we started teaching people
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: how to do real estate the way that we do it,
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: and we're not we charged ninety nine dollars and we're
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: really only charging for the venue. And it's a great
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: what you're doing with real estate investing. I know, you
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: get a lot of people that charge people a lot
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: of money and don't really get them. Give them anybody,
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: and I'm sure people come to you and be like,
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: I went to this person's course and I learned nothing.
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: And that makes me happy so much when they say
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: they come they go to another person's course and learn nothing,
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: and then they come to your course and be like,
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: I learned so much. Yes, that's why I'm excited that
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: I have so many students that I have, because it's
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: word of mouth. Terry is just such an example of
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: what investing can do. She's living her best life and
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: she's paying it forward. She doesn't have to do this.
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: We had a nice conversation the other day. I was
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: asking her why is she doing this? So I was
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: looking at this forty million dollars house that she's renting
• 54:51

• 56:18
  Speaker 1: We were talking about the quick game behind the scenes,
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: and we all finished it. We didn't realize our god,
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: Nick didn't finish it. I didn't know he didn't finish it.
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: He walked out earlier, saying that, Okay, you can talk
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: about school game when I lead a room, but I
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: definitely already spoiled it. That's right, anyway, donk Ye. The
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: day goes to a forty three year old man named
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: Kevin William t Okay. Kevin is from the Michigan area,
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: and I swear in my old age, I just be
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: feeling sorry for people. I'm serious. I used to come
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: in here and just want to give people to credit
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: they deserve for being stupid. But when I hear certain
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: stories like this one in the day, I feel bad
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: for Kevin because clearly, clearly something is wrong. All right.
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: We have to recognize when mentally someone is not what
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: they need to be. And I have empathy for those people.
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: I just do because I think something that just out
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: of their control. Some things are above him, and I
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: feel I truly feel like this is one of those situations. Now,
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: with that said, Kevin is a home invader. Okay, if
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: you wake up in the middle of the night and
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: a stranger is in your house, does it matter what
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: his or her mental or emotional state is, they probably
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: getting shot. Okay, well, at least in my house. All
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: right now, I will send him in his family healing
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: energy after the fact. But hey, that person made a
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: choice to break it into my house. I don't have
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: time to figure out if you know, if they're mentally unwell. Now,
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: that has nothing to do with the story I'm about
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: to tell you, Because Kevin broke into someone's house and
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: he lived to tell about it. In fact, he didn't
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: just live to tell about it. He lived to ask
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: the police for help. Uncle Shla, Brother Lenard. What are
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: you talking about? He lived to ask the police for
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: help after breaking into someone's house. Well, let's go to
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: news net for the report, please. A Michigan State Police
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: trooper from the Catalog Post respondent to a breaking and
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: entering complaint at a home on West Ridge Drive in Williamsburg.
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: Homeowner reported she was watching television in the living room
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: when she saw a man enter the room. She originally
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: thought it was her husband, However, when she realized it wasn't,
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: she screamed. Her husband came downstairs and told the man
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: to leave. The trooper searched the area and located the suspect,
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: forty three year old Kevin William Tegue from Williamsburg, in
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: the backyard of his parents home nearby. When the trooper
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: attempted to speak with Tigue, he fled into the woods.
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: Later that evening, Tegue called nine one one to report
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: he was lost. When troopers arrived, Tigue flagged them down,
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: and he was taken into custody and lodged in the
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: Grand Traverse County jail. Tigue was arraigned for one count
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: breaking and entering without permission and one count resisting and
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: obstructing police. He was given a one thousand dollars bond
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: and his next scheduled court appearances on October twenty sixth.
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: There's a phrase God watches over babies and fools babies.
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's possible God is in the babysitter per se,
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: but he will give the mother the scrimp to hold
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: it down. But watches over, not watches. It's a difference,
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: all right. The fool's part. I don't know about that,
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: because Kevin, I don't know if that was God watching
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: over him or just the luck of the draw. Okay,
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: it's great Kevin didn't get shot in these people's house.
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: But why would God be involved in this? Why would
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: God have sent this fool, all right to do the
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: breaking into someone's house and then have him run off
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: into the woods and get lost. And then this man
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: felt like he could just call the police because he
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: was lost, never mind the fact he just committed a
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: whole crime, never mind the fact he was in the
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: woods hiding because of a crime he just committed. I'm
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: gonna call the police and tell them I'm lost. You
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: don't think they're gonna have questions on why you just
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: randomly in the woods at this time of night. What
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: you're gonna tell them? You're camping? Huh, you're hunting? Just
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: taking a walk, y'all? Do realize narcissism is considered a
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: mental disorder, correct, Because there's no way you commit a
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: crime and didn't think you are able to call the
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: police because you're lost if you're not a narcissist, all right,
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: I honestly, I can't even continue this story until we
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: play a game of guess what race it? Maybe this
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: will give us a better understanding of this situation. Okay,
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: Kevin william T, forty three years old, broke into someone's house,
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: lived to tell about it, fled into the woods, then
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: had the audacity, the unmitigated gall to call nine one
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: one to report that he was lost. Angela, yee, guess
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: what races? Well, I'm gonna have to say he is Caucasian.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: What makes you say Caucasian? Angela, Well, you know we
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: don't call nine one one like that. And then he
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: probably said I didn't know you couldn't do that. In
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: the words of Dave Chappelle, all right, Kevin william T,
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: forty three years old, broke into someone's house and fled
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: into the woods, then called nine one one to report
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: that he was lost. DJ nv Rashawn, Yes, what right,
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: I'm destroyed on this one. Why are you destroyed? All right?
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: Because it's I'm in the middle, right, I'm gonna tell
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: you why. Right at first Dominican, No, I'm not Dominican
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: and black, but I was thinking black at first, because
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: I can see a black person getting stuck in the
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: woods and then hearing animals and being like nah adadam
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: cool and I would want to get out. Okay, but
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: if we did something illegal, we just we just tried
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 1: set in the woods, sing out with the bear, stugging
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: out with them bears because we ain't calling no poet
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: these bears and being jail. Yes, I gotta go with Caucasian. Okay,
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: Well I want angel and DJ and VI didn't know
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: that you bofar right, Kevin william T gets our Caucasian.
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: He had to call gasity, the unmitigated white privileged gall
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: to break into someone's house, running to the woods, getting
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: lost and then call the police to help. And this
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: bond is only a thousand dollars for breaking in and
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: entering without permission and resisting in obscructing police. And he
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: resisted in obscructed police without getting shot. Well, if you
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: just said that, I definitely I know I didn't want
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: to give that one away. Please give Kevin william Tu

  Speaker 1: here exhausted, like literally like you sat down and he
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: was like bones hurt man has soldiers shoulders order. Three
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: weeks three weeks ago, I've just been you know, because
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: from doing stand up so much, I got off by
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: this birth side it's and tend to night it's and
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: a tar on their shoulder. So I was doing that
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: stand up doing nine ten shows a week, and that
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: whears it out. So I just got to reconstructed. I'm ready.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: I'm back on that stage, and I'm actually gonna be
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: in New York this weekend at the Gotham Country Club
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: just working out. You might have to get one of
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: those mics that just attached on or something like that.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: Why Janet Jackson headset J Yeah, but I don't want
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: both hands free. I like the microphone. It's a prop
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 1: and about it makes it's a club. You can knock
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: somebody but a head with it. It could be a
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: you can make it whatever, you know what I mean.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: So I like having the mic because that's the beauty
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: of imagery. Like you have a mic, you have a light,
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 1: you have a stool. Give me some drunk people, I
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: can make him laugh. Anywhere you think stand up as
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 1: a lost art, No, I think it's the found art.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: I think it's the only place you're gonna be safe
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: to say what you feel. Everybody don't need a stage.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: You don't need a stage where they CANCELA good. I
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: don't think you get on stage no more either. I
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 1: think I think you just got you can't you just
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 1: can't on stage. Yeah, you get on stage because that's
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 1: what they come to see you. If people can't you
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: for a joke, those people that can't you ain't give
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 1: about you in the first place. People that love you,
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: they come for the craziest that you say. They want
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: you to say that. Anybody else is scared to say. So.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: You know, I think it's a loss, but a found
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 1: art from I love. I love stand up as much
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: as I'm doing this drama stuff, and I do my
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: movies and my TV show stand up. You know that
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: that's my patch and that's my freedom. Every weekend, I
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 1: just get to express and talk and find it, you know.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: And I've been doing this so long now. I just
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: got a special dropping yeah on nineteenth UM on HBO,
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: Max called you know what it is? And then I
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: already got a brand new two three hours on right now, Well,
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 1: let's talk about it because we did get an advanced screener,
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: so you know I had a chance to watch it.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: You did address your cheating scandal. Oh yeah, that happened. Yeah,
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: that happened. You would right into making it hot water
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: in the cheat, Yes, I did. Yeah, But I guess
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: that's something that you kind of have to do, right,
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: like you don't have to a lot of people, not
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 1: too though, because people think about it. And then it
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: also is like you said, you can make anything funny,
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: Well it's not. Well, that's part of my healing process.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 1: So you know, as much as it may before I
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: could make anything funny to me, that's right. But honestly, um,
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm glad that God gave me a microphone
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: because I get to talk about my truth. And as
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: long as you're talking about your truth, you can't hurt
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 1: or offend others. You know. The person that was in
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: it with you, you know, we laugh about it. And
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: just like my my best friend, my rider die, I
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 1: love that woman to death. Now we don't have sex,
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 1: but still she got the card, she got the house,
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: her house better than mine. I'd be jealous. And we
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: never went to court to talk about those kinds of things.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: That's my family. I love it. I love it for life.
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: But yeah, one thing that people have to think about
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: too when something like that happens. What about the kids?
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: What do the kids have to say to you when
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: you come home because they see everything online? You know,
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: because the kids feel for mommy, you know, because we
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: make stupid excuses. First thing I said, and I knew
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: I was on the boother woman, but you cant see
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: sick I would have. I was like, I said, this
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: was true. I said, I know this pictures with one girl,
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 1: but there was like seven others. I should have seen
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: it that was happening down below. But it was funny
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: to me and I was able to make her laugh
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 1: at the time. But I felt like, man, it's like,
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 1: you know, there's no um, there's no no amount of
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: sorries you can say except for you are sorry. Yeah,
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 1: I'm a sorry as my bad. And that's something that
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: you're gonna regret for the rest of your life. You
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: think your success took a shot at you because you're
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: so famous that they're taking pictures that you want to
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: boat na. Actually that was the first time I felt successful.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: I'm like, it wasn't a picture either because and it
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 1: wasn't like a cool picture with I had floaties. I
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: want to swim that well, I had those little you
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: never say float had one of them little boys. And
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 1: that's what happens when you're famous, when you fly PA,
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 1: wasn't that famous? Just now getting famous famous you don't
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: have to sitcom on network TV, you know, like, come on, bro,
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 1: all this Netflix stuff come on. But still all that
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: was like building up to you know, this new this
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 1: is this is what my best years are ahead of me.
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 1: I always say, first thirty was learning and now these
• 1:08:35

• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: young face you have Google alerts for yourself. Yeah, I

  Speaker 1: Marlon Wayne's when we come back, don't Move. It's the
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: Breakfast Club, Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy we are to Breakfast Club were still
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 1: kicking with Marlon Wayne's did you take anything out of
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: this special? Because there were some edgy things on there
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: where even I was like, oh, this is one joke
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: that I really loved that took out. I didn't want to,
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 1: but as Maxell's like, listen, they were like, just that one. Okay,
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 1: you want to stand up to do it? Are you?
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 1: You can't get cancer if you're standing up now, you guys,
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: if you're sitting down not the views of the Breakfast
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 1: Clube Juice inspired this joke, and eds Water and Charlemagne's book.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: Actually I got out of Charlemagne's third book, all right.
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: So it was it was because I talked about my
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 1: my daughter. I want to talk about her being gay now.
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: Acceptance right and our love us accept and you know,
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 1: at the end of the day, the message is always
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: about love and acceptance. That's my child. And I try
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 1: to speak to fathers out there who are in especially
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: old school point of views, like, yo, I'm not accepting
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: my kids in that life and it's like, at the
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: end of the day's still your kid. And I talked
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: about how I went to per phone on to high
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: school and to this day, I still have gay friends
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: and I still, you know, hang out with my gay
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: friends and when you know, and that's why I consulted it.
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: When when it was time for me to find figure
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: out like what to do with my daughter, I sat
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: my gay friend down and I asked him, you know,
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: what do you do? And he goes, well, and he'd
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: made this noise, but his method was like and I
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: was like, hey, you just pull off and imagine they
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: answered my question because he made that noise that I
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: can't make it. And then the audience laughs and I said,
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: that's not the worst thing I said to him. I said, listen,
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 1: we gave people a great sense of humans. I actually
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: said something darker to him, but I'm not going to
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 1: tell people what it was because I felt like to
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 1: get upset. And then the audience egged me on it's
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: like tell looks, tell luck, tell look all right, And
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: I said all right, and I y'all, nothing's gonna judge me. No,
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: you this. You're a comedian, all right. So then I said,
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 1: I said, oh, think no. Because I said, I said, hey,
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 1: I forgot, it's so funny. They're like, oh my god,
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 1: they're looking at here like, no, don't do it. They are,
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 1: and I said, he goes. My gay friend was like,
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: I was born this way. And then I said, I said,
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 1: oh really, I said, but then I said what who who?
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: So what? And then it's a little like the baby
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: that kind of joke, and the audience like laughed. They
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 1: lost it and I got a big huge round of
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: applause just because I've said that, because they didn't think
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: I was gonna go there, and I'm like and they
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 1: was like, yo, that's dope, and they laughed. It was
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 1: one of my favorite jokes. But I was just like,
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know how mothers over the age of white
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 1: mothers over forty seven would enjoy that, and for my
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: white female audience over forty seven, I chose to take
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 1: that joke out. I can see the think pieces, Marlon Wayne,
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: They're not funny there's nothing funny about that, Marlin. I
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 1: didn't just do the little baby. I did the whole
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: la laba, and it just gets more and more uncomfortable
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: and funnier, and it's funny. I can see the pieces
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 1: right now. But here's the thing. Ready, there's funny and everything. Thing.
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: I don't care what topic it is. It's funny and everything.
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 1: Now it may take you time to find it, but
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 1: it's funny and everything. You can't tell somebody how to
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 1: feel about what they went through. That's their therapy is going, Oh,
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 1: you know, it's funny about this, And that's the beauty
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: of comedy is no matter what we decide to talk about,
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: if as long as you're talking about your truth, as
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: long as you're talking about a perspective that um isn't
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: you're trying to bash, but you're trying to enlighten. I
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: think you can talk about anything. Every time. Every time
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 1: I tell the story about how I got molested at
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: eight by my cousin's ex wife, and I always say,
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: you know, I made her stop because she had a
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 1: Jerry Crow and I didn't like her Jerry craw. You
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 1: see what I'm saying. I've been telling every time after
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: same reaction every single time. She's like, I've read it
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 1: too many times already, but it's funny every time. How
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: many times? But it's a true stories. I wouldn't do.
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 1: I would be the same winning trying to go down
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 1: to the way Jay Carl smells. It's like, that's how
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 1: I felt when I was eight. I was like, I
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: don't like the kids on my hands. It's everywhere. Your
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 1: mom can tell who it was. It was your aunt
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: now because look at your l all that glitzerings on
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: lat that's what that is. I know it was Loreta.
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 1: Now you know what's gonna cancel you after this? People
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 1: with auty belly buttons. I canceled them years ago. You
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 1: gotta see this fest I grew up, wheld you grow
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 1: up South Carolina. Monk's going to South Carolina? Would you say, okay?
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 1: So you know I'm talking about it's the auty belly
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: button kids. They just badass and kids. It was always
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: ben Do with the Audi belly button. That was the
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 1: bully in the hood. Their shirt on anything they never had,
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 1: they always had and they were buff at four years old.
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 1: And so I talk about Audi belly button people and
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: how they're terrible human human being. So Audi belly button people, please,
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: um watch this. It's no offense to you. It's more
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 1: offense to your belly button and how you raise. But
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 1: the funny part is somebody can write and think peace
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 1: about that too. Marlon Wayne thinks people belly buttons on
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 1: the devil, Like, what can you fix that? If you
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 1: have an Audi, like get serious? Black people try they
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 1: put a quarter you ever seen somebody was quarter button
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 1: or Nickel Brothers trying to fix it. Just sleep the
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 1: sleeping on his stomach. Maybe I don't know where it
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 1: comes from, but it always scared me. And so in
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: my special, I just I talk about my fears and
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 1: that's one of them. Listen what I like about the specials.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 1: It starts weird, just off the cuff, so that's weird,
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 1: and then it just keeps going and then it gets
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: like okay. Then you after the first eight minutes you
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 1: enter the special and you realize that, oh, I'm on
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 1: a journey, and you know, I get to talk about
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 1: my life, my truth, you know, my cups and and
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 1: and and poke fun at it. It was crazy. I'm
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 1: just just I'm just realizing. I don't think you've been
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: here in two years August, maybe you twenty nineteen. I'm
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 1: gonna make views like I'm making invY one. This tastes
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 1: just like water. I got christ It's a little old baby,
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 1: all right. We got more with Marlon Wayne when we
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 1: come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club, The Morning
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club, do power one, O five one, the
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Your morning's will never be the same morning.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking with Marlon Wayne's
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 1: yet you see now Robin has come out as as bisexual,
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 1: and I see a lot of people weighing in on
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 1: when did that happened? Just came? That just happened as
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 1: soon as they put my character. Why didn't put this
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 1: on the on the brother white? Robin is now black? Um,
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 1: I didn't know that. I feel like, you know, with
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 1: the way the world is at this point, everybody needs
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 1: some representation. Everybody should have some type of hero and
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 1: who cares like I mean, I think it's dope that
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: you know, it progresses and that he goes the way
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 1: everyonets if that's what he wants to be that's what
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: I look. My daughter needs a superhero. So hey, congrat
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 1: gay Robbie. My daughter would love that. She'd be like yes, Robin, Yes.
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: So for everybody like I was beautiful. Yet another reason
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 1: why Living Color should get more credit because everybody was
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 1: represented on in Living Color, everybody. It was a diverse cast,
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 1: and every character y'all portrayed was I mean, handicap people,
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 1: gay people like. They say that in Living Color couldn't exist.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: To there, I disagree. I don't think the world would
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 1: be as sensitive if in Living Color did exist. If
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 1: we did, people go, you can't do a White Chicks too?
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 1: Sure we could. I think White Chicks too would actually
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 1: be better given this climate than it was. It would
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 1: be more successful than it was because people are looking
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: for people to just can say it. Everybody's so scared
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: to just say I'm gonna say it, and it's oh,
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 1: I've always said it, but I always say with kids
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 1: gloves because our intention is never to dismantle or hurt people.
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 1: Our intention is to bring people together with a laugh.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 1: That's why I love about my shows. When I do
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: stand up, I have a point of view over here,
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 1: and somebody else has a point of view over there.
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 1: But if I get them all to laugh, then we're
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: agreeing about something. I would argue that if we laugh
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 1: with each other and at each other, we all normalize
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: each other, regardless of what it is. Growing up, that's
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: all we did with snap on each other. Black people,
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 1: white people, Portovican people, Dominicans and Porto Ricans who go
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 1: at it, And that's what we did. Who's to say
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 1: you can't say this. Sometimes you make your best friends
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 1: by talking about people. So we got cool talking about
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 1: each other. I was like, it was motivation. When Marlin
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: told me I piqued that life, I said, I really
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: got to be more myself. He told me, I piqued
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: that life. Was like, let's say that. I was trying
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: to get nuclear. Yeah, behind you, I'm writing this, I'm
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 1: gonna do my podcast that pick that like, and I'm
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 1: living at home with my mom right now because I
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 1: got fire from Wendy. What wow, that's very effective that
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 1: like wow, Like I might as well go for it.
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 1: He was talking about like for no reason, this is
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 1: just like why do you like this answer? And then
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: trauma really yeah, hell yeah hurt person. Once. I was
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: a little mad at you because you've made my you
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 1: and Wendy and my sister, and my sister Kim is
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 1: the sweetest, sweetest, most intelligent, the diagram of what a
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 1: great black woman should be. And they went at my sister.
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 1: I was like, nah, I went about them with me.
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 1: I thought I went at Sean. No, you went at Kim,
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: and that's why Sean got mad. You went at afterwards,
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 1: and Sean's like, that's my sister. Sean, we new York.
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: That was that felt like, all right, Kim, I'm up.
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 1: You get windy that yeah. But so that when we
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 1: had to twitter being that's what I was like, but
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 1: sing Kim O love, I sincerely apologize. I was a
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 1: different person. Thank you man. I absolutely absolutely a woman
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 1: deserve that. I know. We're also here to talk about respect.
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 1: We had yes because I read Franklin biopick first and foremost.
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: Jennifer Hudson is amazing in this movie. When you see
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 1: when you see this woman's word, I couldn't believe that
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 1: I was watching this woman do this like and it
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: wasn't like she was trying. She had no fear she
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 1: would come to word. She's singing to read the Franklin takeout,
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 1: the takeout to take live Wow never asked for hot
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: well and Lemon I was like, honey, God is in
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 1: her abdomen, like she was so damn good and she's
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 1: like I felt like. When I was going to work,
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 1: I was like, I'm I'm going to watch Jennifer Hudson
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 1: win three oscars and abusive husband and which was different
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 1: for me because I've never seen my dad strike my mom.
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 1: I didn't grow up in a household like that. Layne's
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 1: household was not like that. That's why me and my
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 1: brothers were respectful men. We'll walk away before it get crazy.
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 1: If you would light my house on fire, I'm still
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 1: not gonna hit you. And none you can do to
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 1: make me come out of my character. So I really
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 1: had to dig deep to find that. And I thought
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 1: what would make a man hit a woman? And I
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 1: thought a damaged man would hit a woman because he's
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 1: trying to damage her, because damage people damage people, and
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 1: a damaged man is really a hurt little boy. And
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 1: so the insecurity and the jealousy him trying to control
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 1: her spark the abuse. But I wanted it to come
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 1: from a place of love, because when a man meets
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 1: a woman, he loves her. He wants to rescue her.
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 1: He's coming as the Night in shining armor, and that
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 1: was his intention, but he failed up because he just
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 1: was nothing but a hurt little boy. And that to me,
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 1: I wanted to do that because I wanted to represent
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 1: for all the women that are in abusive relationships and
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 1: people go, why don't you just leave him? Girl? It
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 1: ain't that easy when you fall in love. And that's
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 1: the beauty of his movies. You see us fall in
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: love and then you invest in the love, and so
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 1: it's not that easy to leave somebody because you're trying
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: to rescue people from each other's damage. How do you
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 1: prepare for the role though, Like, because you keep talking
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: about like, I guess the hurt little boys you have
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 1: to tap into, like the trauma you some trauma you
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 1: experience as a child. I mean I've seen, I mean,
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 1: you grew up in the placs you see, you see,
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 1: you see people get to dance with all the time.
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 1: So I thought about past relationships that I knew girlfriends
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 1: of mine that have been in abusive relationships or you know,
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 1: family member who have been in abusive relationships. So I
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 1: kind of tapped into that and then I read iceberg
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 1: slim book Pimp and Pimp is the thing that made
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: me realize that all monsters aren't monsters, they're really damaged
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 1: little boys. And Iceberg Slim in his book Pimp, he
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 1: was became a pimp because he was mad at his mother,
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 1: because his mother left his stepfather, who was the only
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 1: man in his life that he loved, and she around
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 1: with another dude. And she left that man who was
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 1: really good to him for another dude. And he was like, bitch,
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 1: I hate you. I'm slapping bitches for knife, and that's
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 1: what he did. I think they're saying, you gotta go,
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 1: but but I'm canceled, being that this is my last
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 1: I do want to ask you about this because I
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 1: thought this was good. Speaking of motivation, say Chris rock Heck,
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 1: could you during a performance that for years? I don't what.
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 1: I was like, Chris, because I didn't know it was him,
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 1: you know, was eighteen seventeen. I'm doing stand up. I
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 1: hear and I'm like, you know, you're trying to find it,
• 1:26:09

• 1:29:45
  Speaker 1: Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We got
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 1: a special guest with us this morning, Doctor Panel Joseph
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 1: and I just found out it from queens and y'all. Yes, absolutely.
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 1: I read an amazing book called The Sword and the Shield,
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 1: written by doctor Neil Joseph one of the best books
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 1: I've ever read. I got around to it about a
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 1: year later. I know it came out last year in March,
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 1: but I got to it about a year late. But
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 1: it really explores the revolutionary lies of doctor Martin Luther
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 1: King Junior and brother Malcolm X in a very humanizing way,
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 1: like like, what made you want to explore him the
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 1: way that you did? Well, I've always you know, I'm
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 1: gonna say what Muhammad Ali said about Malcolm X. He said,
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 1: I fell in love with Malcolm X when he was
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 1: debating people and talking to people about black history. So
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 1: I fell in love with Malcolm X by the time
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 1: I was eight, nine, ten years old. The Eyes on
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 1: the Prize documentary series came out, and this is before
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 1: Denzel's brilliant movie came out in nineteen ninety two. I
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 1: was nineteen when the movie came out. So I've always
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 1: loved Malcolm X. I think my love for Doctor King
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 1: has come as I've gotten older, as I've become a father,
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 1: as I've become just a deeper adult, because you see
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 1: one how doctor King was radicalized in part by Malcolm X.
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 1: But but I've also come to see that. Certainly we
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 1: need self defense what Malcolm X talked about, but we
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 1: also need the beloved community where doctor King talked about.
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 1: So my whole thing was seeing how they they went
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 1: from being rivals and adversaries to being each other's alter egos.
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 1: What have you learn a lot of this because you
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 1: know in school, especially growing up, they touched on a
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 1: lot of it. You know, I mean it wasn't so
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 1: deep like it was that I have a dream speech.
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 1: It was a little bit of Malcolm X. So what
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 1: made you want to learn more about these characters Malcolm
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 1: X and Martin Luther King? And you know, it was
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 1: growing up in New York City and the you know,
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 1: my mother was part of a hospital workers SCIU eleven
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 1: ninety nine, and so we grew up in a city
• 1:31:39
  Speaker 1: where we talked about social protest. I was a freshman
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 1: in high school when Michael Griffith was murdered in December
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 1: of eighty six and Howard Beach, a white mob chased
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 1: them out into the highway and the brother was just
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 1: destroyed by by a fast moving car and was trying
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 1: to figure all this stuff out in New York City.
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 1: So this before David Dinkins This is when Eleanor Bumpers,
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 1: who was a black grandmother, was murdered by the police
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 1: at in her own home. And so all of that
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 1: got me interested. But then, certainly Eyes on the Prize
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 1: premiered in New York in nineteen eighty seven eighty eight
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 1: on PBS Channel thirteen over here, and we grew up
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 1: in New York City where Channel five before Fox News.
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 1: We used to watch the drive in movies and you
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 1: think about Wu Tang, they talk about Shaolin. We three
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 1: pm on Saturdays. This is before cable, This is before everything.
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 1: We used to watch, you know, kung fu movies, right,
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 1: So was this idea of you were watching kung fu movies?
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 1: Hip Hop Run DMC lived on Hollis right up the hill,
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 1: so we used to see Run DMC. We used to
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 1: be able to go to shows they used to play
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 1: at times right in PS thirty four Park, But there
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 1: was all this racial segregation. Ed Koch was the mayor
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 1: of New York. Ronald Reagan was the president. All that
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 1: got me interested in Malcolm X. First time I read
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 1: about Malcolm my mother had the autobiography of Alcolm X
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 1: in the house and I read that and that just
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 1: got me going, man, how old are you? Because you're
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 1: talking like you fifty something? You look like you and
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 1: you're okay, okay, I'm forty eight. Okay, Wow, man, would
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 1: you vegan a lot of water? A lot of water,
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 1: a lot of it? Been practicing yoga for twenty three years? Okay? Okay?
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 1: And uh yeah, all that good stuff. Now, what does
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 1: the metaphor in the book's title, the Sword and the
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 1: Shield referred to? And I'm glad you asked that. So
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 1: we usually think about Malcolm X is the political sword
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 1: of the Black freedom struggle. And I even write in
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 1: this book Malcolm served as Black America's prosecuting attorney, so
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 1: he was prosecuting the United States for crimes against black
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 1: humanity that dated back to racial slavery. Doctor King is
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 1: usually think thought of as the shield. He's America's apostle
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 1: of non violence, where Malcolm is Harlem's hero of self defense.
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 1: We think about the ballot or the bullet speech. We
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 1: think about Malcolm with a rifle by by a window,
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 1: and that's an iconic picture. What I argue in The
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 1: Sword in the Shield is that both Malcolm and Martin
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 1: are both Malcolm X is not only the political sword
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 1: of the black community. He becomes our prime minister who
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 1: goes to Africa from the Middle East. He becomes l
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 1: Hodge Malik Shabaz, and he wants to build the beloved
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 1: community as well, but one that's rooted in truth and
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 1: the truth of not just racial slavery, but our West
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 1: African and our African heritage. So Malcolm is a Pan
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 1: African all day, every day. But he's also a Muslim.
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 1: He's also a radical internationalist. King is not just somebody
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 1: who's a man of peace. He's a man of peace.
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 1: He's a man of God. Both of them are men
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 1: of God. But King is also this non violent revolutionary
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 1: King becomes so revolutionary after Malcolm X's death, he's no
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 1: longer on speaking terms with the President of the United
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 1: States because he comes out against the Vietnam War, and
• 1:34:53
  Speaker 1: he starts to say things like all white Americans have
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 1: unconscious racism. He says the halls of the US Congress
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 1: of running wild with racism. In April fourth, nineteen sixty seven,
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 1: at the Riverside Church in New York, he says that
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 1: the greatest purveyor of violence in the United States in
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 1: the world is the United States of America. So that's
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 1: the revolutionary King who goes to places like Marks, Mississippi
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 1: and tells poor black people that during reconstruction they were
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 1: promised forty acres in the mule. They didn't get their
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 1: forty acres in the mule, but he's gonna lead a
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 1: poor people's caravan to go to Washington, DC until they
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 1: get the forty acres in the mule. That's doctor Martin
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 1: Luther King Junior. So he's both a sword and the shield.
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 1: But Malcolm is as well. And what I argue in
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 1: the book is that the person who most influences doctor
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 1: King's radicalism is Malcolm X. You know they, you know, Charlemagno.
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 1: We talks about how Malcolm and Malcolm X and doctor Kings,
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 1: doctor King spoke. Do you think they were assassinated because
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 1: they were possibly going to join forces that come out
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 1: together and that would just be too much power. Well,
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 1: I think they definitely are assassinated because they represent a
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 1: threat to the American political system. I think that they
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 1: would have gotten together. They spoke together once on March
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 1: twenty six, nineteen sixty four, at the US Senate. But
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 1: one little known aspect did I get into in the
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 1: book is that Malcolm saw King in Harlem December seventeenth,
• 1:36:15
  Speaker 1: nineteen sixty four. He was sitting next to Andy Young
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 1: Andrew Young, a former mayor of Atlanta, a former UN ambassador,
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 1: and he heard doctor King give a whole speech after
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 1: King won the Nobel Peace Prize, and not just that.
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 1: He speaks about that speech in Harlem a few days
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 1: later and says that it was a terrific speech. He's impressed,
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 1: and he goes to Alabama to visit with doctor King,
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 1: and doctor King's in prison, and he visits instead with
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 1: Coretta Scott King, doctor King's wife and really political partner.
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 1: We think of Coreta Scott King is just his wife.
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 1: She's a brilliant organizer, political partner, intellectual's his better half.
• 1:36:54
  Speaker 1: Let's let's face it. And so when we think about Malcolm,
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 1: Malcolm was ready to join forces with King, but on
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 1: his own terms, he wasn't gonna do the same thing.
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 1: He Malcolm always believed in black dignity, King believed in
• 1:37:07
  Speaker 1: black citizenship. Over time, they both come to believe in
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 1: black dignity and citizenship, and Malcolm X defined black dignity
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 1: as the end of world white supremacy. All right, we
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 1: got more with Doctor Panel Joseph when we come back,
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 1: don't move as to Breakfast Club morning, everybody is dj
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 1: Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 1: Club was still kicking it with Doctor Panel, Joseph Charlomagne.
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 1: Let's let's dig in on that a little bit more,
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 1: because I love the concept of radical black dignity as weird,
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 1: because I've read the autobiography of Malcolm X a few
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 1: times Love Message to the Black Man, Biolijah Muhammad, swear
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 1: by those books. But I don't remember that concept, you know,
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 1: explored as much as when I read The Sword and
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 1: the Shield, and I even incorporated a lot of the
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 1: concept of radical black dignity and commissment speech I gave
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 1: for South Carolina State, you know, about a month ago.
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 1: But can you dig a little deeper on what that is?
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 1: What is radical black dignity? Radical Black dignity from Malcolm
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 1: X is radical black political self determination. So what that
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 1: means is that Malcolm absolutely had this external critique. He
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 1: critiqued white supremacy, critique institutions that were brutalizing black people,
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 1: the police, the whole deal. But he also expected a
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 1: lot of ourselves. So Malcolm defines radical black dignity as
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 1: Black people coming to understand and love themselves through the
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 1: pain and trauma of racial slavery and segregation and brutalization.
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 1: That we have to understand that, but we have to
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 1: not be as hard on ourselves as we usually are.
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 1: Because Malcolm criticized us for loving white people and loving
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 1: white supremacy too much. But what that meant was that
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 1: we weren't able to face how we had been subjugated,
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 1: how we had been subjugated during racial slavery. The reason
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 1: why Malcolm X goes to Africa three times because people
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 1: don't talk about the nineteen fifty nine trip to Africa
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 1: where he's in Egypt, he's in the Middle East, he
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 1: meets up with President Vice President n y El Sadat,
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 1: he meets up with Prince Faisal Saudi Arabia, the whole deal.
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 1: Malcolm went there to the Middle East, into Africa even
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 1: before he takes to Hajj, because he knew that black
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 1: people out of history before the Middle Passage. So part
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 1: of that dignity was we understood that yes, not only
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 1: had we been kings and queens and obviously not all
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 1: of us were just kings and queens in Africa. But
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 1: we had a history before the US. We had a
• 1:39:19
  Speaker 1: history before European I won't even call it conquest, but
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 1: being captives here and really recreating Western civilization through our
• 1:39:28
  Speaker 1: own protests. Another part of radical black dignity is black
• 1:39:31
  Speaker 1: beauty and black love. Malcolm, following Marcus Mosiah Garvey, believed
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 1: in the beauty of black people intrinsically black women, black men,
• 1:39:42
  Speaker 1: black children, black babies, black neighborhoods. So when we think
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 1: about this idea of self determination, and my final point
• 1:39:48
  Speaker 1: is this is why Malcolm has a critique of racial integration,
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 1: not because he doesn't want an equal society. But Malcolm
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 1: was horrified by the fact that it took troops to
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 1: bring black children to school in Little Rock Central High
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 1: School in nineteen fifty seven, Whereas King writes a telegram
• 1:40:07
  Speaker 1: to President Eisenhower applauding that in September of nineteen fifty seven,
• 1:40:12
  Speaker 1: Malcolm is angry and mad about that. Why it's a
• 1:40:16
  Speaker 1: sixth society where our children, little black girls and boys,
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 1: have to be guarded by troops to go into a
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 1: high school or an elementary school. And that's why Malcolm
• 1:40:26
  Speaker 1: says American democracy is nothing but American hypocrisy. And very
• 1:40:30
  Speaker 1: famously he says, you can't put a knife nine inches
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 1: in a person's back, take it out three inches and
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 1: call that progress. You haven't taken out the knife, and
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 1: you haven't even acknowledged the wound. So black dignity is
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 1: us understanding our own struggle, loving ourselves through the joy
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 1: and the trauma of that struggles. Remember the reason why
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 1: Malcolm X is the best order in American history. And
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 1: I'll say doctor King's number two. The reason why Malcolm's
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 1: the best. Malcolm has a great sense of humor. He
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 1: actually forces us to confront this through different parables. And
• 1:41:03
  Speaker 1: when he talks about house negroes versus field negroes, he's
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 1: talking about black dignity, but he's also talking that we
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 1: have class tensions in our own community. Sometimes you'll have
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 1: historians and scholars to say, well, the house negro field
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 1: negro is more complicated than that. Malcolm's given us allegoris
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 1: that everyone can understand. That's why he says, make it plain.
• 1:41:21
  Speaker 1: So the house negroes wore black folks who had more
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 1: identification with white supremacy and white masters and that's why
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 1: Malcolm says, when the white master got sick, the house
• 1:41:32
  Speaker 1: negro said, we see right and field negroes. Malcolm defined
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 1: them like he defined himself, black people who were catching
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 1: hell every day and who were bold enough to resist
• 1:41:44
  Speaker 1: against white supremacy. So black dignity is huge, huge, huge,
• 1:41:48
  Speaker 1: And this is why when we think about the Malcolm
• 1:41:50
  Speaker 1: and Martin, the dichotomy and the convergence, it's only because
• 1:41:54
  Speaker 1: of Malcolm X. The Doctor King starts talking about black dignity.
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 1: Doctor King starts saying black is beautiful, and it's so
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 1: beautiful to be black. Doctor King, by nineteen sixty seven
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 1: tells us that they even tell us little white lies
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 1: are better than black lives. Black lives. That's Doctor King,
• 1:42:09
  Speaker 1: only because Malcolm X had taught all of us about
• 1:42:12
  Speaker 1: black dignity. Before Malcolm, we were all negroes who turned
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 1: into black people because of Malcolm X. And in the
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 1: book you lay out how they each become the others
• 1:42:21
  Speaker 1: alter ego. Essentially, to me, that's what the book is
• 1:42:25
  Speaker 1: ultimately about. Can you explain it absolutely? When we think
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 1: about Malcolm and Martin, over time, doctor King becomes much
• 1:42:32
  Speaker 1: more of a radical and a revolutionary, speaking truth to
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 1: power in an unapologetic way in the tone of Malcolm X.
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 1: My great example there is when doctor King is in Marks,
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 1: Mississippi in nineteen sixty eight organizing the Poor People's Campaign.
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 1: He tells the poor black folks in Marks, Mississippi that
• 1:42:50
  Speaker 1: the way they are living is a crime. That's the
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 1: exact language that Malcolm X used to use about this
• 1:42:56
  Speaker 1: crime against black humanity that had occurred. For Malcolm, it's
• 1:43:00
  Speaker 1: the ballot or the bullet speech. The ballot or the
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 1: bullet speech is the first time Malcolm X acknowledges the
• 1:43:06
  Speaker 1: need for radical black citizenship. He had always acknowledged a
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 1: need for radical black dignity. But Malcolm hedges he doesn't
• 1:43:12
  Speaker 1: believe in American democracy, never does he believes in what
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 1: black people. He says, the reason why I think we
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 1: should do the ballot or the bullet is that I
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 1: want Black people to have a chance to utilize this
• 1:43:23
  Speaker 1: political power and see where it gets them. Remember, Malcolm
• 1:43:27
  Speaker 1: X had been in prison. Malcolm X's father had been
• 1:43:30
  Speaker 1: killed early. He always felt it was a white supremacist attack.
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 1: His mother had been institutionalized. Malcolm had seen what I
• 1:43:38
  Speaker 1: call the lower frequencies of the United States of America.
• 1:43:41
  Speaker 1: So he was always skeptical about democracy working the way
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 1: in which white people pretended it worked, right, But what
• 1:43:48
  Speaker 1: he did was he had faith in who black people.
• 1:43:51
  Speaker 1: He was schooled by his mother, Louise Norton Little, who
• 1:43:54
  Speaker 1: was from Granada, So Malcolm has Caribbean blood as well
• 1:43:57
  Speaker 1: as the African African American blood. He was schooled by
• 1:43:59
  Speaker 1: his father or a little he was schooled by the
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 1: honorable Alija Muhammad, but he was also schooled by all
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 1: these revolutionary leaders in the Middle East and Africa. Right,
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 1: So when you think about Malcolm becomes closer to king
• 1:44:12
  Speaker 1: through this acknowledgement that we need to end worldwide supremacy,
• 1:44:17
  Speaker 1: not just through self defense, but we're gonna need that
• 1:44:19
  Speaker 1: beloved community. But Malcolm Hedges, he says, one, I only
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 1: believe in black people visa VI this democracy thing. But
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 1: two he says that white people and his language is
• 1:44:29
  Speaker 1: this sincere white people can be part of the movement.
• 1:44:32
  Speaker 1: What did he define as sincere? He divined a sincere
• 1:44:35
  Speaker 1: as what do boys call abolitionist democracy? White people who
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 1: are gonna be willing to put themselves on the line
• 1:44:42
  Speaker 1: right to transform the entire world. So du Boys always said,
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 1: and W. B. Du Boys is the intellectual who is
• 1:44:50
  Speaker 1: the founder of the NAACP, one of the most important
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 1: intellectuals ever. But what he wrote in a book nineteen
• 1:44:55
  Speaker 1: thirty five called Black Reconstruction was he wrote the true
• 1:44:58
  Speaker 1: history of reconstruction. He pushed back against the Lost Cause
• 1:45:01
  Speaker 1: history that had said we were apes and monsters and
• 1:45:04
  Speaker 1: we were raping white women. He showed how black people
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 1: tried to reimagine American democracy. And the only reason the
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 1: country exists in the form and exists now is because
• 1:45:14
  Speaker 1: of our labor, our sweat, our sacrifice, our love, our patriotism. Right.
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 1: And so when we think about Malcolm and Martin, Martin
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 1: becomes closer to Malcolm where he becomes this unfettered revolutionary,
• 1:45:25
  Speaker 1: becomes a pillar of fire, an Old Testament prophet. He's Amos,
• 1:45:29
  Speaker 1: He's Jeremiah, He's Moses by the end of his life,
• 1:45:32
  Speaker 1: and Malcolm becomes closer to King where he starts to
• 1:45:35
  Speaker 1: say that not only is he a prosecuting attorney, he
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 1: becomes Black America's prime minister. In the last year of
• 1:45:41
  Speaker 1: his life, Malcolm X had an office at the United Nations.
• 1:45:44
  Speaker 1: Malcolm X could go and speak to Prime Minister Kwame
• 1:45:47
  Speaker 1: and Kruma in Ghana, he could speak to nam diazakiway
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 1: in Nigeria, he could speak to Mohammed Babu, who's the
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 1: Prime Minister of Zanzibar. So that's when he becomes closer
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 1: to Doctor King. So they really converge, and you could
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 1: see the love and admiration that Malcolm has for him
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 1: when he tells Correctis Scott how much he admires her
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 1: husband in Selma. And when you read the statement that
• 1:46:12
  Speaker 1: King sends after Malcolm's assassination, he expresses his admiration and
• 1:46:18
  Speaker 1: says what a great man Malcolm X was who was
• 1:46:21
  Speaker 1: constantly changing. So you can see the convergence between both
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 1: of them even in their lifetimes. Let me tell you something, man.
• 1:46:27
  Speaker 1: His name is doctor Pernil Joseph. The book is Disord
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 1: and the Shield. I'm not even exaggerating when I say
• 1:46:31
  Speaker 1: it's one of the best books that I've ever read
• 1:46:34
  Speaker 1: in my entire existence on this planet. I think everybody
• 1:46:38
  Speaker 1: should go out there and get Disword in the Shield
• 1:46:40
  Speaker 1: right now. It explores the revolutionary lives of Malcolm X
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 1: and Doctor Martin Luther King Jr. I can't wait to
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 1: just read more of your stuff, Doctor Furnil Well, thank you,
