• 1:05
  Speaker 2: But lo and.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: Behold, I was wrong. Let's go to WCNC Charlotte for
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: the report police.
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: Because we are seeing backlash on social media tonight. As
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: marketing material for a Juneteenth celebration in the Carolinas, well,
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: this is a picture of a Juneteenth banner in Greenville,
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: South Carolina, circulating online. It is drawing some ire and
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: it shows, as you can see here, a white couple
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: advertising this upcoming Juneteenth celebration. The lead organizer says that
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: they were trying to portray how everyone is welcomed to
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: join in Juneteenth celebrations. That said organizers are apologizing for
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: the execution of that message.
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: Do we understand that it's a very sensitive subject, especially
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: in the African American community, and we failed at making
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: sure that we completely centered African Americans at the center
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: of our marketing, of all of our marketing.
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: Organizers apt apologizing say that they plan to change the
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: banners to feature now just the Juneteenth and the Pan
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: African flags.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: You know, you never see black people blackwashing white culture,
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: and a few times you do see black people being
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: given inclusion in something white, you get reactions like, you know,
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: a highly got for the little mermaid? You know, and
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: I have no idea. You know, why we think we
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: need white people is to face the Juneteenth as much
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: backlash as we give Republican legislators for trying to retail
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: American history and for creating laws to keep real discussions
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: of race out of.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Schools and banning books about race.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: I but trying to hide the truth about this country,
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: especially in regards, you know, to anything to do with
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: black people. Why as a black person would you ever
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: want or think to gentrify June teenth?
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: Are you doing this so Starbucks gives us our own
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: specialty drink?
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Do you want a caramel blackachino for June teenth?
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: What's that thing you'd be drinking? Envy? Do it?
• 2:55
  Speaker 6: Deliminade? No macado, machiato machiato? You want to sweet potato mai?
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: You want to sweep potato machiato? Do you think those
• 3:06
  Speaker 6: flavors can only be obtained by including mayonnaise on the
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: June teenth menu?
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: I know what it is. You want Whole.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: Foods to have a June teen special? You want organic
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: chicken and seedless organic Guatermelon on sale. You think those
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: things can only happen if white people are involved. This
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: is just like when they took the Five Heart Beats
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: off the cover of that album because the label thought
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: it would help sell better with white people on the cover,
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: which was actually a thing.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: They used to always do this in music.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: Okay, it's likely, yeah, back in the day, it'd be
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: black artists, but it'd be white people on the cover.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: It's like Brad Pitt playing the Mexican of Tom Cruise
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: playing the last Samurai. Okay, now, the co found depeat
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: lee that the last thing we want to do is
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: exclude people like they did for us, which is true,
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: but you don't have to exclusively invite the people that
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: actually did us wrong.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: This is the celebration of our people being free, all right.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: That's like getting released from jail and inviting the cop
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: and judge. That's since you away to your welcome home party. Okay,
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: you know what, I don't even know why I'm trying
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: to explain this. My good sister of man, Deciell's had
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: some thoughts about this, and she summed it up quite nicely.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: Let's listen, you're black people.
• 4:13
  Speaker 7: June teenth, is our day. You don't have to feel
• 4:16
  Speaker 7: any kind of way about white people not being included
• 4:18
  Speaker 7: in Juneteenth because they are included in Juneteenth as the
• 4:21
  Speaker 7: descendants of enslavers. But June teen should be about unity.
• 4:26
  Speaker 7: Why this country is not about unity? Juneteenth is an
• 4:30
  Speaker 7: American holiday. If you're not going to teach true history
• 4:33
  Speaker 7: in American schools, then don't come trying to take black
• 4:36
  Speaker 7: holidays and call them American holidays. The point is is
• 4:40
  Speaker 7: that black folks can be all right celebrating a day
• 4:43
  Speaker 7: for black folks without feeling like we have to include
• 4:46
  Speaker 7: other folks. I don't see Christians spinning dradles for hanka ads.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: But hey, points you're made.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: Please give the organizers of June teenth in Greenville the
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: sweet sounds of Hamilton's please.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: Oh no, you are the dog the day, all right.
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: This whole story got me thinking, why is there not
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: a sweet potato macarena?
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: What's it going? Oh my god?
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: Because you don't even know what it is. Why is
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: there not a sweet potato machado? Wouldn't that be fire?
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: You don't have you ever had a machiato? No?
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: Okay, Like I just feel like a warm, sweet potato
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: back flavor beverage from Starbucks would be amazing.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: Starbucks is not gonna be sweet enough. You know, they
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: stingy on the sugar.
• 5:42
