• 16:28
  Speaker 1: city that it is.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: I ate.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: I made sure I didn't take my Skinny Girls shop
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: before I went, so I didn't take it for a month,
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: just so I could eat in New Orleans this year.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: So I ate, I am.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: I told y'all one of my the joys of life
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: for me is live music. And live bands. So went
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: to Freshman Street, went to you know, was on uh
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: Bourbon Street every night. But let's get into it a
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: few things that I realized, here goes.
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: My selective ignorance. Okay, we're gonna.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: Start off with the one, starting off with the culture
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: of New Orleans, and by that I did not know
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: the New Orleans It baby accent was everyone's.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: I thought it was a black accent.
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: No, I thought it was.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: I thought it was the Lil Waynes. I thought it
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: was the masterpiece of it all. I've only ever in
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: my life, and yes, I haven't been in New Orleans
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: that much, but I thought it was our accent. Baby,
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: I'm there. I'm not even gonna lie.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: I think I asked about three or four different service
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: what's your ethnicity?
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: Because they're coming up to the table. I met an
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: Asian at about four white people.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: This sounded like fucking master p and I'm like, I
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: felt like at any moment they were gonna say the
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: N word. And I was just listening extra hard because
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: they sounded black.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: Videos that have been going viral for these a couple
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: of years. Last year there was there was an Asian
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: man who owns a restaurant down.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: I forget what his.
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: Name, but he he he came from Korea, I think
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: or Taiwan, but you hear him talk.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: Oh my god.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: We was walking by there was like one of the
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: doormen outside of the hotels on Bourbon Street and the
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: music started playing and he just started dancing.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: So I started dancing with him, and he said, don't.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Get it started, and I'm like, white, hold on white,
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: Like if he was in Georgia, I would think there's
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: a Confederate fight on the back.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: And he just and I'm like, oh my god. Secondly,
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: m I felt like I was in g t A
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: the NPC characters on Bourbon Street. No no, no, no no no
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: no no no no.
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: Still let you drink Hennessy and all that ship Hennessy.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: First off, I was on shrooms, Miley and liquor okay.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: And literally felt like literally felt like I was in
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: ze bag.
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: The street.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: It was crazy.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: We went into one bar and we were just looking
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: around and it was like this isn't real. Like our
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: bartender left us to go to work. At the front door.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: This security guard started doing the bouts, started just taking
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: the security guard babes, what are you securing not that as.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: Secure.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: So that was crazy, okay, And so all of that
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: happened here we go.
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: I also, okay.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: No, actually, no disclaimers. I believe in black love and
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: I want my sisters to find love in black men.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: M hm.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: And I know it's hard because there's already a lot
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: of groups of men that are not available to us.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: You know, we can say, I mean, we could start
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: with the incarcerated, and that's well, let me get through,
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: let me get through it.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: We could start with the incarcerated, even though that's you know,
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: we're against the system here, I get so, ladies, I know,
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: unfortunately black men are incarcerated at larger rates.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: Than we would like.
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: Bridge that gap, we don't. Okay.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: Secondly, y'all know, y'all know, we got y'all know, we
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: got the gaze. They don't want us, ladies. It's okay.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: And we're not homophobic over here. We love all the letters,
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: but they for us.
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: Okay. Then we got the black men that want to
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: play in snow what we're gonna do about that? Can't
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: do nothing about that, right, so okay.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: And of course, depending on your age, depending, there's also
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: been just groups of people that are available to you.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: Then you've got geographic location.
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: Proximity all that.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: Why black men do we have to create another group
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: of men that make it hard for black women to
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: find black love. I was on Canal Street. Eight blocks,
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: were gonna get into it? Eight blocks about.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Twenty niggas a block, okay, And I'm looking at I
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: was like, are these the Greeks?
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: Okay? So okay? Was it the cues? I was like,
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: NBA season isn't blakers?
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: Watch observer from a distance.
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: So I'm like, what is happening here?
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: You just can't keep going right?
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: Maybe maybe now I don't seeing.
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: Them in Harlem.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: I don't seen them on the belt line, But ain't
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: nothing like this group out of saw out there in Knowlleds.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: So these brothers, by the way, I looked it up
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: because I was like, this is a different group.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: They are. I think, I h el's are their name
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: or is their group or something like that. Basically that
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: the Christian Israelites, well hold on, let me keep going.
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: Not Christian. Yeah, that that they go by the Bible Bible.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's the same Bible. I don't know
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: what it is.
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: They go by the Old Testament.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: I believe, and I think their thing is just a
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: principality thing, not necessarily the religious aspect. But I know
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: they do preach that, you know, the children of Israel
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: are in the America.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: Well, let me tell you this.
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: As we walk that's all I know.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: As we walked by and I started hearing their preachings,
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: I look at my homegirl.
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: Did you stop?
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: Hold on? I'm gonna tell you. I look at my homegirl.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: I said, man, would you like if your nigga did
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: this on a Saturday?
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: Like, what's y'all pussy get wet? For a nigga who
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: came out on the corner with all his brothers smewing
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: these thoughts? I said, would you pussy to get wet?
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: Didn't think so.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: So then I look at these brothers and I just
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: look and I look at all. There's a lot of
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: them dressed up song got little robes on. By the way,
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: I've never seen a group of men's like this in
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: my life. Not one nigga was over at three and
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: I was like, okay, these are the black incelts. That's
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: what this group is. I'm getting Okay, I haven't seen it.
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: I have seen it.
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: The person what I said, I was crying, not one
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: nigga was over three.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: So anyways, we're walking by to go to this party
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: called Queer Space. Shout out to Monica. So we're just
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: walking past them, and they're like saying something to this
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: white group of people, and we don't engage.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: We just look at our homeboy and we laugh.
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: Damn.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: The Master of the Purple and Gold must have felt
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: attacked in his soul, or perhaps he doesn't believe women
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: can chuckle, because he goes to ask us a question
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: on his microphone. By the way, Hey ladies, are y'all
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: the heads of your household? And do you pay bills?
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: And then baby, we looked around and we said, yeah,
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: we do, actually we pay our own bills. And he
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: goes in it's because you don't know how to shut
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: your mouth. It's because you're loud.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: It's because as women, you need to learn to be
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: subservient to the man.
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: That's why you got to pay your own bills.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: It just starts going and then so I go, oh, fuck, nigga,
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: get pulled away.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: I get pulled away. I said, shout out to our camp. Well,
• 25:00

  Speaker 2: No, no no.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: They preached with them niggas in that Afghanistan and doing
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: all at the park, holding hands without no women because
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: they don't want women to enjoy parks. Them niggas in

  Speaker 1: Afghaniste and games hell to try to just be gay.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: That's what's happening here. That's what's happening here. How do

  Speaker 2: there's no journalists.
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: These women know what I'm saying. There's women who are
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: part of that too.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: There is a journalist right now. He went and started
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: walking around the park in Afghanistan. These niggas real friendly.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: He's like, he's like asking all the niggas on the lawn, like,
• 26:34

• 26:47
  Speaker 2: from each other.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: He's like, oh, y'all are really touchy and affectionate without
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: women around, huh. And it's like it was really really
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: interesting and telling me because there's also like women journalists
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: out there right now who are going to to certain
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: parks early enough to just see the park, and as
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: soon as the park's open they have to leave because
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: they're women. So, by the way, we'll talk about this
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: later if you haven't yet. There have been one hundred
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: and forty laws that have banned women's rights in Afghanistan,
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: and again we talked about it last week, right, well,
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: Texas is looking to add the Bible into public schools.
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: When one does it another doesn't.
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: You talk about it a lot though, upholding what patriarchy?
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: And when I tell you, if y'all look at what's
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: happening in Afghanistan right now and again and we'll talk
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: about it, I know you know, they tried to brainwash
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: us that Afghanistan is this terrible, terrible fucking land of
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: people because of Osama bin Laden and all the things.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: That happened here a non eleven poppy, But those are,
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: but those are.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: There are women and children and families over there navigating
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: normal life too, and it's just sad to see like
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: that that is their reality.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: So look into that. Also, look into these Israelites, bitch,
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: because the ghetto, the ghetto.
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: Would what I want?
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: What you just heard? What I want? What you about
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: to ask?
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: I think life survived balance Right now? My thing is,
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: would you have a one on one conversation with a
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: member of the is your like, you know what, just
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: to just to because I think that, Look I don't,
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: I don't I've seen them, I haven't engaged with them.
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: I do understand if that's the construct that they are
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: operating in then they're just going to give you that
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: because everything else outside of it, they're trying to in
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: their mind correct.
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they think this is the proper way to live. Correct.
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: So that's the part of it, you know what I mean.
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: And I think that having dialogue.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: They're thinking that this is the proper way to live
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: is the problem.
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: Because they're going off of the script. They're going off
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: of the it's they are taking. I mean, it's the
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: same thing that that conservatives is a conservative movement, right,
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: and they're taking those parts of the Bible to try
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: to subjugate people and police people's specifically women's behavior and
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: all of that.
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: Same way they.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: Took Nature Boy down. I need them to say, these
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: knicks down, lock them away. But the hurt feelings FBI, Yeah,
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: get them, get him out of here, get him out
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: of here. Let's get into this is America. Don't got
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: your slipping. You said you had, FOMO.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: The entire country has been talking about over the weekend
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Jay Z's concert series in Yankee Stadium. Now what's crazy
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: is this was talked about so much a couple of
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: months ago. When the released it went, it sold out immediately.
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: Then we had the room. Then we then they added
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: the third day, then we saw the roots was also this.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: Since then he has also added l a parent in
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: London shows. So it's giving concert series, giving tour. When
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: you do this, this is giving tour. We are recording
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: this on a Sunday, y'all, so we are recording this
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: prior to a King's belief that we are getting a
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: new album tonight.
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: So I've been, I've been so far my all of
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: my predictions have come true.
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: The cutting of it here uh nas Eminem and no takeover.
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: He totally bypassed. He didn't played the beat. I think
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: they played the beat later in with with Eminem. Eminem
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: came out.
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: But so far so my theory again, as Mandy said,
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: you know we're recording this the day of.
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: But I'm thinking, because of you to your point giving
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: the rollout of the concert stuff, maybe he gets he
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: performs a new album and we get the album on
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: the on the walkout of the stadium right, which leads
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: into more shows, which leads into an eventual announcement of
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: him doing the super Bowl.
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: Oh you think he's super I mean, if.
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: You're gonna do, I think, if you're gonna do, I
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: think all the stuff, the momentum he's created for himself.
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: Not only that, he even said in response to even
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: his decision to have Kendrick last year, who had a
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: bigger year than Kendrick, and essentially, look at what we're
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: seeing right, one of the biggest you as a rapper.
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: Let me touch let me touch l A, let me
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: touch the UK right, Europe right by then, I mean, oh,
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: my other theory to this because he didn't play any
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: Rihanna records in the you know, the end of the
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: end of the two nights he was he was doing
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: a mixed bag, right. He hasn't played Run the Town
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: is coming out tonight. Oh yeah, I can see that,
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: even hanging around in Harlem going to the fish spots
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: with Asat Rocky.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: She's in New York, you know what I mean, say
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: she's there just to show in Newark?
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think two days ago.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: Definitely, Yeah, I can see.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: I can see Okay getting the I ain't gonna hold you.
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: I will be crushed if Rihanna gets on stage.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: Only because Rihanna stopped putting out music before I was
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: going to concerts and had this access I got now,
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: but I never got to see Arehanna concert, and I
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: think that's why I don't really have too much fomo
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: with this.
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: Not only did I just get to see jay Z.
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: Phenomenally perform with an orchestra, which is now what I'm
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: about to chase, I'm mad. I didn't realize Jeez was
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: doing it for summer Lea, especially Vegas, so to me,
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: I really want to see that. But I also went
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: to Blue Blueprint three tour here to Atlanta, so we're gez.
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: It was GZ and Trey songs and I'm just, you know,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: I'm not It's now all my New Yorkers have been like, bitch,
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: what is wrong with you? I can't even I can't
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: even talk to you this weekend. But I'm just not
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: a huge fan. But I think seeing the love that
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: y'all have, the group chats, how we're talking about it,
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: it is a moment.
• 33:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, for sure.
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: I mean we don't see you know, his last tour
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: was four four four, but we don't see Jay on
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: stage a lot. We haven't seen him on stage a
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: lot over the past few years. So it's like it's
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: good to see this, and it's good to remind people
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: that he is who he is, and like, you know,
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: we'll talk about it and going in a little bit
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: more about how people's perception of him has changed to
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: some degree over the years in comparison to what it
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: was when he was in his height.
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: But he is who he is.
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: His art, his art, his music is his music, and
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: the legacy of what he stands for in hip hop
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: is forever as a woman, I.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: Will also say, and this is y'all, I gotta mention this,
• 33:50

• 37:52
  Speaker 3: then you just got to hear his speaking of I'm

  Speaker 3: saying no.
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: That is about the transition here.
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: I just get sick of hey.
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: So y'all.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: Jay Z did what he did at the Roots Picnic,
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: and he offered us more freestyles in responses to things
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: like Target.
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: He also uh mentioned Colin Kaepernick as well.
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: And here's the thing, we should play freestyle.
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: Oh see first outline producer. All you had to do
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: was drop it in the notes, but you don't got it,
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: so we at play.
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: It's okay, It's okay because I'm not Yeah, I'm not
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: a fan at it in post. So jay Z hits
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: the stage, does these freestyles at Yankee Stadium, and of
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: course people like last time dissected the raps. Now I'm
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: gonna kick this off to to jah to.
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: Go first but you know what, I'm just gonna summarize it.
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: So Isaac Case founder fan Base, took to it's.
• 39:00
  Speaker 4: A shameless plug. He's crazy.
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, okay, Goblin investor. At this point, I needed,
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: don't we get my money back?
• 39:09
  Speaker 4: Okay?
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: He took to, ironically, a different platform.
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: I thought this was time.
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: He's the founder of a social media app, but he
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: always screenshots.
• 39:24
  Speaker 4: His tweets, threads.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: His thoughts on other platforms even though he owns a platform. Isaac,
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: we got to talk about that, my brother, all right,
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: He says, Colin Kaepernick is paying for the autopsy of
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: Nolan Wells.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: Meanwhile, jay Z is distant Colin.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: Kaepernick at his show for settling with the NFL after
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: jay Z himself assisted in derailing Colin's social justice movement.
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: This is tone deaf and simultaneously on brand for him.
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: Can't make this this ship up.
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: Thoughts. Take it away.
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: Because you know I'm missing He's missing a lot of
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: information there. That's one too. It seems like he shows
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: up when is any any of one of Aubrey's adversaries.
• 40:16
  Speaker 3: That's when we see these tweets and these these conversations.
• 40:20
  Speaker 4: Jay Z addressed he didn't disc Kaepernick.
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: He addressed the Target and hypocrisy of people putting it
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: on his shoulders. When motherfuckers go to Target every day,
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: then you say you was the longest line in the motherfucker.
• 40:35
  Speaker 3: So we boycotted Target for two months. If that, if
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: you go by Target today, if you people watch.
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: I had argument with one of my friends from the
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: West Coast and she was going on and on and.
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: I said, I'm gonna go there and I'm gonna film
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: this shit so you can see the hypocrisy of us
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: black and Latinos. We scream and you yell on social media,
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: but we show up in these places because guess what the.
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: Price is ignorant? Can we can we just not group
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: black and Latinos in for this? They want a part
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: of the boycott Latino's work.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: All right, you did like, we're not. We're not. We're
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: not grouping them in this.
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: You got, you got you always. Well, guess what, niggas lie.
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: Niggas are screaming shout to the mountaintops on social media
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: and they gonna show up at these places. Niggas ain't
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: stop buying Amazon products. Niggas is waiting on this ship
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: right now as we do this episode.
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: Did y'all get your thirty albums from targeting?
• 41:28
  Speaker 4: I've seen No, I haven't got one yet.
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: I don't have a record player. I mean it's the album.
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: No, I probably won't, but I'm I want to get it. No,
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: I want rock Nation to give me that ship. Now
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: I'm entitled. Now, I'm I want that ship from that way.
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: You on per nocause you know.
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: What's the conversation on the internet right now?
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: Who rock Pain?
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Why you know they love this?
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: Is like I said before, why we're not celebrating this nigga.
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: He's fifty six years old doing it at a high level.
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: Only twenty five year od nigga can't do nothing.
• 42:00
  Speaker 4: They got no cabal Anyway. The whole point of the
• 42:02
  Speaker 4: matter is that's Cap.
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: Yes, he mentioned about the Colin Kaepernick because he took
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: the check, right, and he said, I'm not mad that
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: he took the check, but he also signed. When you
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: sign it, when you take the check, you signed something.
• 42:17
  Speaker 3: Because you can't talk about it. And to Jay's point,
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: I haven't heard Cap talk about the NFL since we
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: know he tried to get the job a few times. Right, whatever,
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: the whole point of The matter is, why are we
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: focusing on Colin and jay Z? What are we doing
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: as people were just arguing about these millionaire niggas not
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: showing up.
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: In that situation. I can only I can only compare
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: to this, like when you have a friend who's in
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: an abusive relationship and they leave, but for whatever reason
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: they take their ass back. Now I don't care.
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: I can't care anymore. Like if they did this much
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: to you, took.
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: Away like not only your earnings, your money, didn't stand
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: for what you stood for, didn't see your blackness and
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: all this stuff I hated when he went and tried out.
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: There's so many other things.
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: Go coach in college, like to go to the same league, Nigga,
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: take youre Ouds of Canada. There's other football leagues, Like
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: there's other ways he could have still been a part
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: of his love for football without.
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: Going back to the league that did all the things
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: that did to him.
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: So for me to take whatever money did signed and
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: now we came from him, I don't want to hear
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: from it anything.
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: But also your people that look like us said they
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: was gonna boycott the NFL, right.
• 43:40
  Speaker 4: And then JZ no, no.
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: No, even beyond jay Z. Niggas still watch football, bro.
• 43:45
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I never stopped wanting tailgates. They never stopped
• 43:47
  Speaker 3: the watch. The viewing parties at the bars and lounges
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: hadn't stopped.
• 43:51
  Speaker 4: So what were we talking about?
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: So then let me ask you, John, how do you
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: view Isaac's take on this take the bread?
• 44:00
  Speaker 4: Because you know, I'm ready.
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: I feel like he got he got his.
• 44:04
  Speaker 4: Points get clipped up to because this mastermind over here.
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: So actually, when it comes to this particular take, to me,
• 44:19
  Speaker 3: this isn't necessarily an original thought of Ikes. A lot
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: of people feel this way. Yeah, yeah, because I know
• 44:27
  Speaker 3: who he is. I know who he is, I know
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: who he stayed in New York.
• 44:32
  Speaker 4: Business.
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know who he is. There are several people
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: who feel this way about jay Z in general, this
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: particular freestyle mentioning Colin Kaepernick, and I do want to
• 44:52
  Speaker 3: zoom out a little bit and and move a little
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: bit away from even just Ike and address something that's
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: a little bit larger than Ike and how this whole
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: situation plays out to your point, Like there's a target
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: down the street from my crib, Like there's black people
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: there all the time.
• 45:09
  Speaker 4: I haven't shopped the Target in a minute.
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: But when I go past their parking livest full and
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: there's niggas getting out of cars going in the Target, right,
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: I'm happy that people boycott at Target because you're not
• 45:21
  Speaker 3: ever really gonna see me caping up for no corporation
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: in no company. I don't give a fuck if these
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: motherfuckers fold or their stock prices go down, whatever it is.
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: But also I know a lot of people didn't boycott Target.
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: And also I don't think the Target is the number
• 45:34
  Speaker 3: one enemy of black people. Like they they're a company
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: acting like a company. They were in support of BLM
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: when it was popular to do so. When Trump came
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: in office and started reverting DEI, they tucktail because they
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: didn't want no smoke with the administration, just like a
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: lot of schools and other companies.
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: The lady who who stole the.
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: Knicks trash can was probably the last person will be
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: at JP Morgan as a DEI.
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it probably won't be any more of that.
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: But our good brother Van Lathan has a viral clip
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: that has gone around a lot over the past and.
• 46:15
  Speaker 4: He describes society dick writing to oblivion.
• 46:21
  Speaker 3: And I think in order to.
• 46:25
  Speaker 4: Be a better society.
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: In order to have better public dialogue, we need to
• 46:31
  Speaker 3: like undicify society. We need to undictify society. And I
• 46:37
  Speaker 3: appreciate Van for calling that out for what it is.
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: It was funny, but it also rings true. But I
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: want to offer a solution to that because Van called
• 46:45
  Speaker 3: it out as a thing. But I want to offer a.
• 46:47
  Speaker 4: Solution to what we should do to undicify society.
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: And what I think we need is the usher Terry Raymond,
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: the fourth method of undicifying your life. And I've said
• 46:59
  Speaker 3: it on this podcast for I've said to other places.
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: But what that means is subscribing to a method of
• 47:04
  Speaker 3: thought that says, if I'm gonna tell it, I gotta
• 47:07
  Speaker 3: tell it all. Let's not leave out any parts of anything.
• 47:13
  Speaker 3: Let's tell the whole thing, right. So in that vein,
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: jay Z is my favorite rapper ever. I think jay
• 47:22
  Speaker 3: Z is unequivocally the goat of rap music. I don't
• 47:25
  Speaker 3: think it's particularly close with anybody. I don't care who
• 47:28
  Speaker 3: your favorite OWL is, I don't care who your favorite
• 47:32
  Speaker 3: MC from Compton is. I think it's jay Z. Everyone
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: else gets in line. But I think we have to
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: be able to slay our phase. We have to be
• 47:44
  Speaker 3: able to slay the people that because if the I
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: fashion myself to be a real nigga, and to me,
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: the real nigga is the metric of a real nigga
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: is not whether or not you can take to task
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: and call out the people that you don't like or
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: people that you don't know. The metric of a real
• 48:02
  Speaker 3: nigga is can you take the task the thing that
• 48:05
  Speaker 3: you love the most? Can you say the real shit
• 48:07
  Speaker 3: about the thing you love the most? And although I
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: don't think this jay Z freestyle was necessarily an attack
• 48:14
  Speaker 3: on Colin Kaepernick, there's some things that need to be clarified.
• 48:19
  Speaker 4: With how he posited this freestyle.
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: Colin Kaepernick, the settlement that he got from the NFL
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: was in conjunction with another player named Eric Reid, who
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: was his teammate at the time. When Colin started kneeling,
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: Eric Reed started kneeling beside him. Yes, at the end
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: of that season, that was kind.
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: Of so many people like that detail. Forget that part.
• 48:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he was ostracized, and he was.
• 48:44
  Speaker 3: But here's the thing, right, he was ostracized too, but
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: Eric Reid was able to get He got two contracts
• 48:48
  Speaker 3: after that, so he kept the job, kept kneeling and
• 48:53
  Speaker 3: kept his job.
• 48:54
  Speaker 4: Colin Kaepernick was black balled so although.
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: Because of the decline of how he was performing as well,
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: though he wasn't declined well.
• 49:03
  Speaker 3: He was still playing well at that point, but they
• 49:08
  Speaker 3: they I think Colin Kaepernick was the loudest voice, obviously.
• 49:11
  Speaker 4: I don't think read loud and light. That was the problem.
• 49:17
  Speaker 4: Loud light with a big ass afro.
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: You think him being biracial was the part.
• 49:21
  Speaker 4: Nobody remembers every.
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the party, the part that he was light skinned.
• 49:28
  Speaker 3: I'm just looking at it. What was what was the identifier? Basically,
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: white people know who Calan Kaepernick is because of what
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: he didn't look like.
• 49:37
  Speaker 4: He didn't look like Michael Michael Porter Jr.
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: Nobody. He was the quarterback of the forty nine ers that.
• 49:43
  Speaker 4: Went all Afrook.
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: Wait wait, so you think that's why. Also, people only
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: know old boy from Kansas City Mahones because he likes
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: I mean because he about racial too.
• 49:55
  Speaker 4: But guess people, he's no.
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: Cam Newton work.
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: People know the quarter they know the people attributes, and
• 50:03
  Speaker 3: Colin at the time was very open and with the afro,
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: the symbolism right, he became the household Caberny, count of Caberney.
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: I will say, I want to bring up a tweet
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: if you don't mind, before we get into no Well's.
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: I did see something interesting because how you said you
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: have to know how to call out your faves too.
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: Now I don't know if both of these people are fans,
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: but I do like to take on this so Teslin
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: figure out. She took to Instagram to actually comment on
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: the freestyle by saying Jay Z said, boycotting Target without
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: boycotting other entities is picking and choosing.
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: However, the target the target.
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: Boycott organizers explained on numerous occasions why Target was a
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: target by saying, you can't boycott everything at want, So
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: is jay and others that agree with him picking and
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: choosing to not understand how boycott's works selective ignorance. Then
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: my son hopped in there as well and said, the
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: crazy thing is Charlemagne keeps saying it even after he interviewed. Intervened,
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: intervened them, and they explained it. The reality is people
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: don't understand organizing and boycotting.
• 51:22
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean, and I think that's true too. I mean,
• 51:24
  Speaker 4: that's why I see people. We're dumb. That's it. Everybody's dumb.
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: We got it.
• 51:31
  Speaker 4: We lost our way, bro.
• 51:33
  Speaker 3: The civil rights mean nothing to nobody no more because
• 51:36
  Speaker 3: we don't look at that context context. We don't look
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: at it. We know it exists, we don't study it.
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: I see, how do we implement today?
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: We just know it.
• 51:47
  Speaker 4: We just know it is a historical footnote. That's it.
• 51:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean we're at a point now where and
• 51:52
  Speaker 3: this has been said numerous times, but like people don't
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: want to sacrifice anything like our convenience. We've placed convenience
• 52:00
  Speaker 3: at the top of everything, and anything that interrupts our
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: convenience or monetary happiness, it's just like, ah, whatever, I
• 52:08
  Speaker 3: don't have time for that. But I want to clarify
• 52:11
  Speaker 3: a couple of things about what Jay said, because the
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: way he positive when he said he took a check
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: Colin Kaepernick and Eric Colin Kaepernick filed his lawsuit first,
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: Eric Reid filed a separate lawsuit. Eventually they combined their
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: lawsuit together because they were both being represented by the
• 52:29
  Speaker 3: same lawyer. Ultimately, the NFL settled the lawsuit more than
• 52:33
  Speaker 3: likely because.
• 52:36
  Speaker 4: Right with an NDA. But here's the thing about even
• 52:38
  Speaker 4: the NDA.
• 52:39
  Speaker 3: The NDA was about, and this happens with all pretty
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: much civil lawsuits. Where you settle, you can't talk about
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: how much they paid, you can't talk about the conversation
• 52:49
  Speaker 3: that happened in the negotiation. It doesn't stop you from
• 52:52
  Speaker 3: talking about There's no public record anywhere that he cannot
• 52:56
  Speaker 3: talk about the NFL. The reason I know that is
• 52:59
  Speaker 3: because two years after this settlement, or maybe maybe four
• 53:02
  Speaker 3: years after this settlement, he did this Netflix series Colin
• 53:06
  Speaker 3: in Black and White and then Colin in Black and White.
• 53:08
  Speaker 3: One of the first things that he talks about in
• 53:10
  Speaker 3: that doc is that the NFL combine is like a
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: slave auction, and you're poking and prodding black men and
• 53:17
  Speaker 3: you're dehumanizing them just based off of athletic.
• 53:21
  Speaker 4: Attributes and all these things.
• 53:23
  Speaker 3: In twenty twenty three, he did an interview with NPR
• 53:26
  Speaker 3: and the interviewer asked him about how he feels about
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: the NFL, if they've made any change, if his kneeling
• 53:31
  Speaker 3: did anything, and he said straight no, I don't think
• 53:34
  Speaker 3: the NFL has changed anything. I think that they are
• 53:38
  Speaker 3: still doing the same old things they always did, and
• 53:40
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't put them, I wouldn't give them any good
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: will or any benefit of the doubt. So in regards
• 53:47
  Speaker 3: to the non disparaging thing, Colin Kaepernick is still saying
• 53:51
  Speaker 3: the things that he's saying about the NFL, and he
• 53:55
  Speaker 3: hasn't been sued for it, so he's still talking about
• 53:58
  Speaker 3: the shit that he's talking about. But the the thing
• 54:03
  Speaker 3: that Jay did in saying it that way made it
• 54:06
  Speaker 3: seem like and then and then he says the line about, uh,
• 54:09
  Speaker 3: I'm the one who can't be controlled, and he was
• 54:12
  Speaker 3: making this scene as if, well, you took the check,
• 54:15
  Speaker 3: so they control you, but they can't control which isn't,
• 54:20
  Speaker 3: which isn't actually what happened. Now people can argue about
• 54:24
  Speaker 3: whether or not they feel like Jay did that on
• 54:26
  Speaker 3: purpose to be petty, or whether that was him just
• 54:30
  Speaker 3: saying what he's saying and him not understanding what actually
• 54:33
  Speaker 3: happened in the lawsuit.
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: But I mean, in hip hop, in music, raps are
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: up for interpretation all the time, and whether it's really
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: a freestyle.
• 54:47
  Speaker 3: Or not, it's him. Yeah, it's it's him saying no,
• 54:53
  Speaker 3: that's that's what Jay does not write. I know it's
• 54:55
  Speaker 3: hard to believe, but he doesn't. I didn't believe.
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: You don't right, but maybe he practiced it in his mind.
• 55:08
  Speaker 2: We're not gonna talk about that. My man's is called.
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: He's on the tour right now. I can't wait to
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: go next week.
• 55:16
  Speaker 4: Are you done?
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: You done?
• 55:18
  Speaker 3: Freestyle is in the elastic term nowadays that just encompasses
• 55:21
  Speaker 3: you're saying a rhyme that has never been released on
• 55:24
  Speaker 3: a record, on the beat, whatever. But I think that, listen,
• 55:30
  Speaker 3: I think that there is plenty of fair criticism for
• 55:34
  Speaker 3: jay Z and the things that he's done. And I
• 55:36
  Speaker 3: think what we have to get to is a point
• 55:38
  Speaker 3: where we all me included, and everyone listening and everyone watching,
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: we have to fight the reflexive instinct that Gag reflects
• 55:48
  Speaker 3: when we have the dick in our throat and we
• 55:51
  Speaker 3: hear you listen, you have.
• 56:02
  Speaker 4: You have to fight.
• 56:05
  Speaker 3: You have to fight the reflexive instinct to defend our
• 56:10
  Speaker 3: favorite thing just because we hear something.
• 56:13
  Speaker 4: And uncomfortable criticism about said thing.
• 56:16
  Speaker 2: Wait, Gagy, this is your favorite thing.
• 56:20
  Speaker 4: When it's dick in the throat, When you have Beyonce
• 56:22
  Speaker 4: is dick in your throat?
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: Who jay Z's context?
• 56:26
  Speaker 4: I'm trying to I'm trying to have favorite over here.
• 56:30
  Speaker 3: Buddy, I have what I'm saying, when you hear something
• 56:35
  Speaker 3: about somebody that you love or don't like, you need
• 56:38
  Speaker 3: to don't just app You can step back for a.
• 56:41
  Speaker 4: Second and just be like, hey, let me look at this.
• 56:43
  Speaker 3: Let me look at this thing and see what's being
• 56:46
  Speaker 3: said and see if it has any merit.
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: I'm not canceling jay Z.
• 56:50
  Speaker 3: If I can go to the concert tonight on a
• 56:52
  Speaker 3: PJ and hop on a helicopter that uses a spot
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: like I would be in that motherfucker swinging around Happy Ship.
• 56:58
  Speaker 2: So you're saying you also don't care about climates change?
• 57:00
  Speaker 4: No, Yes, I'm he just line changed.
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: Yes, I'm cold.
• 57:05
  Speaker 3: We're gonna burn the Ozone Layer Ship and I'm gonna
• 57:08
  Speaker 3: go on rock out to whatever the fuck's going on.
• 57:11
  Speaker 4: I'm not canceling jay Z. I'm not going to malign
• 57:14
  Speaker 4: jay Z.
• 57:15
  Speaker 3: I still have a certain respect for jay Z and
• 57:17
  Speaker 3: that's just gonna be what it is. But if you're
• 57:19
  Speaker 3: gonna tell it, tell it all what it is. I
• 57:25
  Speaker 3: don't because we got to get to know why us
• 57:28
  Speaker 3: as a community keeps regardless of what jay cap. Why
• 57:33
  Speaker 3: are we not organizing, why are we not standing on principles?
• 57:37
  Speaker 3: Why are we lying on social media, saying with boycott
• 57:40
  Speaker 3: and something, but we're going in these stores anyway.
• 57:43
  Speaker 2: No, I don't lie to the people. I'll be I
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: tell it all, don't I say too much? Actually say
• 57:50
  Speaker 2: way too much.
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: It's honestly, But I like, I'll be trying to get
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: y'all to share more, and y'all do, and then y'all
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: be regretting a little bit too.
• 57:59
  Speaker 2: But I think I share a little bit too much.
• 58:01
  Speaker 2: I gotta like, I gotta starting, I gotta reel it
• 58:04
  Speaker 2: in because I told my nigga too much.
• 58:07
  Speaker 4: I was.
• 58:08
  Speaker 2: I've never I shared words too much. I shared Wait no, no, no, no,
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: it's way too late.
• 58:14
  Speaker 3: Now fast, don't go back into no no, it was Molly.
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: That girl is not invited.
• 58:22
  Speaker 4: Oh my god, Molly and no Grace.
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: That bitch had no Molly, no Graces.
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: Gotta go Okay, them hoes got to go away. And uh,
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: Molly and Grace sound like some white bitches. I don't
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: need to hang around anyways, because I would be the
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: only one of color around.
• 58:40
  Speaker 2: So let's get into it over the fourth of July break.
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: Unfortunately, a story hits our timelines.
• 58:50
  Speaker 2: Uh Nolan Wells was.
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: Damn did I keep calling him Noah, I'm sorry, Nolan Wells.
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: Nolan Wells went missing after a boat day with his
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: white friends, and of course they came back to land
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: and said amnesia.
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: They didn't know what happened.
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: As the investigation has continued, they have said that he
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: decided to stay with another group of friends.
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: The group was like, nah that nigga say he was
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: gonna stay with me. His body was found. They are saying.
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: That Ben Crump has taken on this case. We have
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: Tyler Perry who has agreed to pay for funeral costs,
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: and then we do have Colin Kaepernick who is paying
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: for a private autopsy.
• 59:42
  Speaker 2: And this is.
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: Because allegedly, and by the way, correct me if y'all
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: saw something else, why this is being done is because
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: had he drowned, which of course is going to be
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: the assumption of a black person around a body of water,
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: had he drowned, there would have been water in his lungs.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: And apparently with the autopsy what was found so far
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: is not given that.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: M hm. And so now they did hire a private
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: autopsy report. The parents have been doing a phenomenal job
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 2: getting the story out there.
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 3: They have strong people, very strong, very strong and I
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 3: would be crushed if this, if this happened to my son,
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 3: and they are standing strong in the fact that like.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 4: Know something that is not right with this situation.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, I do.
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: So the conversation that I want to have and d
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: if you could pull up the clip, will play this.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: But the conversation that has really hit the internet has
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: been the conversations around if we as black people should.
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: Be the only ones in the room mm hmm with
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 2: a group of white people.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: That both black men and women and children are not
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: safe ever in a room full of white men and women.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: And so with this being a child, I do also
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: want to say some names of people that lost.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: I came across this page and I would love you
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 2: all to follow her. She's dope, and yes I'm saying
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: that about a white woman.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: Our page is that dad, love? If you could play
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: this clip for us real quick.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 6: To have a quick check in with all the white parents,
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 6: white parents, how are we talking to our children who
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 6: have black friends? Because the black community is talking to
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 6: their children about if they can trust their white friends,
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 6: So how are we as white parents talking to our
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 6: white children about how they are to show up for
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 6: their black friends? I had a conversation with our white son,
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 6: and we also have to have conversations with our black
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 6: children about potentially not trusting people who look like their parents.
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 2: That those people who look just like the.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 6: Parents who surround them and love them might not be
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 6: the safest people for them to be with.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: They might not be the people who are going to
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 2: have their backs.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 6: So, white parents with white children, are you having those
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 6: conversations about how your white children are going to show
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 6: up and bring home their black friends.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Right.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 3: I've seen a lot of videos on social media from
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 3: white counterparts. I've seen one video where a gentleman was
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 3: saying that he made the reference that these rich families
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 3: that have white children who have black friends, if something happens,
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 3: they're not protecting that black child because the interest goes
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 3: beyond the child that goes to the parents.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 4: Now, and in this case, we.
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 3: Have one of the one of the friends whose mom
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 3: is a judge.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 4: You know what she's violating.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 3: She's violating her oath or her protocol by even talking
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 3: about this publicly, because when she talks about it, she
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 3: may be swaying the bias with when when somebody in
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 3: her with her position is not supposed to mention anything
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 3: because her son is involved the investigation.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: I wanted to add for those of you who are
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 2: new here, I'm my mom is is white. Who may
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 2: be new here?
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 4: Who are you? You know what I mean?
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 2: But I'm I present as a black woman.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: My mom is white, and I went to all black
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: schools growing up until my freshman year of high school.
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 1: I went to Doctor Phillips, which was predominantly white, but
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 1: I went because it was a Magnet program television production.
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was Good Morning announcements and I was learning
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: and editing.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: That was the Magnet program and I'll never forget it.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 1: Freshman year, I went to a party. Was the first
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: time I came home drunk, okay, and my mom actually
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: had a conversation with me because there wasn't ever fear
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: around me being around my people, but she knew the
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 1: access to drugs that the white kids had, like little
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: to fewer supervision, like the parties that were being held,
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: the drugs, the liquor that.
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 2: Was available, and they were wealthy white people.
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: So I remember a conversation and her fear of me
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: going to these white places, not only because of that,
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: but without people like my friends shout out to Chris Warren,
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: that's my homeboy who ended up bringing me home that night,
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: and like he walked me to the door. My mom
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 1: was grateful, and she literally has two or more of
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: y'all there, like or was this that?
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: And it's just a conversation I'll never forget.
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: Of course, also getting really a scolding for being drunk
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: as fuck. But I had never had that conversation with
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: her before when I had hung out with all my
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: friends that looked like me, when I did sleepovers, when
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: I spent the night, but this was my first time
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: going like being around white people ninth grade. My mom
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: is white, but all of our neighborhoods everything was black,
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: and so seeing this take.
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 4: Place people really brought me.
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: It brought me back to that, but also like she
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: had been someone who ran away from home, and of
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 1: course we already know black people took her in. My
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: dad is black, like her friends when we were growing
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: up black, And so it's interesting because to know that
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: that conversation was had in what it was that two
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: thousand and three, four we were in twenty twenty six,
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 1: and these are conversations somehow that we're still having an
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: it shocks me to know that this hate is still
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: being taught because these three white kids keeping it a
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: secret or not being told. That means their parents, which
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: are my age, are still being taught this.
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 4: Hate and nowhere.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: And I can't like a part of me being a
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: millennial seeing how we blended growing up as a biracial
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: seeing the blending of things, also knowing that that was taught,
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: but also knowing how much we as a community had
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: the Internet, have unlearned so much of this To see
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: that my generation thirties and forties are teaching their kids.
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 4: Yes, to me, it's many.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 3: It never went anywhere if the course correction wasn't done
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 3: forty fifty years ago, and you had that that the
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 3: residual effect of the sixties. Some of them people in
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 3: the sixties didn't like that shit that went down. They
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 3: ain't like that it was equal, the civil rights being discussed.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 3: They didn't like what Martin was talking about it. They adn't
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 3: like what Malcolm was talking about it, like what Mega
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 3: Evans was talking about. So as things quote unquote started
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 3: trending a different way, they still harbored that that anger,
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 3: that pain towards another group of people.
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 4: That's why you hear a narrative.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 3: Now go back to where you came from, or get
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 3: up out my area of all the things, like they
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 3: never went nowhere man, And unfortunately, look what we had today,
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 3: as you pointed out, it's twenty twenty six.
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: Now I don't I don't have children, but I'm curious then,
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: like even we had a conversation similar to this about
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: you know, when I go out and I leave, whether
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: my friends want me.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: To or not, and vice versa.
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: What then should the conversations be, Because we're not sitting here,
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: as you know, parents of children that may be dealing
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: with this, What should our conversations be? Because there have
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 1: been adults as well who we have seen unfortunately pass away,
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: and these sit under these same circumstances. Right, So we
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 1: have Ashley Janet would was recent but that became a
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: race thing, which it did look like that wasn't the case.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 2: We have Laurence Smith. I want to call out these
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 2: other names. I don't know if y'all can. Uh. Tamla
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 2: that's the one.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: Uh, she's the one who went with her, Tamala Warrisford,
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: Peter Spencer, Kyle Basinga, Kendrick Johnson, Kawan, Charles Gloria Bambo,
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: James Beard, Laurence Smith, Elijah Wetherspoon. These are all names
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: of black adults. I think Elijah was the only child here.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: But these are all and.
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 3: Kawan, Charles and and but this was the longer.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: This is not all, but these are the ones that
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: we know that over the last you know, decade or so,
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: have literally fell victim to being the only black person
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 1: in the room.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 3: Also, before I know, I know, you're about to cook
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 3: up some some some soux chef typesh yo.
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 4: A lot of those incidences too.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 3: The one thing that's prevalent is that they deemed it
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 3: a suicide. They took their own lives, so there's nothing
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 3: past that. And it seemed like that's just the default.
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 3: You know, the young blood who who was who was
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 3: chased down by the three pickup trucks. They found his
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 3: body discapitated and they said, you know, they said, they said, oh,
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 3: they told the parents, the animals. The animals got them right,
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 3: you got no head, but the animals got to you.
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 2: Bro.
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: There's lynching, there's drugging, there's I mean everything at this point,
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 1: maybe poisoning.
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 2: There's because so much.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 4: Prove it, but that's what I'm saying. That's what they say.
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 4: Prove it.
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 2: It's that.
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 3: But over the past several years, just to add some names,
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 3: because I've been writing about these a lot of these
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 3: cases on bottle for at least the.
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 4: Last time you got fatigued.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and it gets its old because it's the same
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 3: old pattern of information, the same cycle of how they treated.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 2: All and over again.
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 3: So Trey Reid found the Mississippi hanged himself allegedly you
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 3: mentioned singa uh uh, Gavan Givaon in Albuquerque City hanged himself.
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 4: Where's this other person?
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 3: Torrens Medley, same thing got found near a golf course
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 3: in Wisconsin.
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 4: Hanged himself.
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: There's one right now and I can't get the name.
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: But if you guys look, there is a they're trying
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: to get more national news on.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 2: I think Mississippi. There was just another hanging recently, like
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 2: in the last two weeks.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 4: Yep, uh the Norris Richardson.
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 3: Several years back, there was a child who died at
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 3: school wrapped.
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 4: Up in a gym matt.
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 3: I remember that fell through the bleachers and back rolled
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 3: up in a gym matt and suffocated his death, and
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 3: no one knows anything, No one saw anything. So there's
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 3: all these cases that happened over and over and over
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 3: and over again, and they always through the same conclusion
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 3: almost immediately, Oh it's a suicide, and kind of just
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 3: keep it moving, so like this is not unfortunately, this
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 3: isn't a new thing.
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 2: And do you think we're going.
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: Too far though at all by just instructing us to
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: stay to stay away from all white people, like not
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: all white people like that I'm saying, is it silly
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: for parents to say, you need another black friend if
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: you're gonna hang with these white people, if you're gonna
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: go to this party, you need to have another black
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: person there is Like.
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 2: What what is the real solution here? Like is that not?
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 2: Like what?
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 4: I don't know, I don't see it. Like if you have, yes,
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 4: I would like to.
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 3: See more black children have at least a co pilot,
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 3: another black malienated person with them to say, all right,
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 3: let's just make sure we got each other.
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 2: At all times.
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 3: It might not be I mean, I don't know how
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 3: many I don't know how many black kids live in
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 3: their neighborhood. I don't know how many other black friends
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 3: Oland Wells had.
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 4: Whatever the case, was, but.
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 1: The fan base read me when I said that there
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 1: has to be more than thirteen percent black people in
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 1: the country. They're like, they said, I hadn't traveled enough
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: to the Midwest where there's not.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 3: There, there was no black I know people that grew
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 3: up in Iowa, so that they see black people. There
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 3: was one black person in their school of a thousand,
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 3: don't have any interactions.
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 2: But that's what I'm saying. So, how are we realistically
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 2: going to applord? That's the thing. I know, what's the answer? Oh,
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 2: it's given ignorant.
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 3: That kid Nolan spoke to his parents that same morning,
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 3: Hey son, you're going out there, all right? See you later.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 3: There's no later, right right. I don't know how long
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 3: they've been in that town. I don't know the origin
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 3: story is his parents and how they got to that area.
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 4: But perhaps this is not working.
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 2: Mhm.
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 3: You We need to get back on our plus versus ferguson.
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 3: We need to get back on our separate but equal
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 3: because if they're not, if they're not responsive to who who,
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 3: how do they view people of color?
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 4: Are they still with the three fifths? Bullshit? We less
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 4: than That's the thing. That's what they're.
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 3: Being taught, then the behavior is not going to change. Well,
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 3: that's the other problem because if you saw, if you
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 3: listen to the the enhanced audio, he's get my phone back.
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 2: Audio in the friends there was saying there was an argument.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 2: Well there was, Yes, there's a video. In the video.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 4: You can't see who's arguing. That's the partment.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 2: You can hear.
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 4: The circling around all the bolts.
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 3: Here people arguing in the background, and there's some type
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 3: of back and.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 4: Forth going on.
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know how you police this situation, but
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 3: like you know, there's a it's crazy that this is
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 3: happening right now because over the past I would say
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 3: I've been seeing it for maybe the past two months
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 3: or so. There's a trend on social media of black
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 3: people walking up if they see a black person with
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 3: white people that walking to him, AKM to making sure
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 3: you're good.
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 4: Yes, I see it.
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 3: Make sure these white people not fucking with you, like,
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 3: and it's gone two ways.
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 4: I see one video where the.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 3: White people laugh along because they understand what's being said.
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 3: But there's another recent video where it went left and
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 3: I dropped it in chat.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 3: If you don't have to see it. So black guy
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 3: does the same thing. He's walking down the street. I
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 3: think he's in New York. He sees a guy sitting
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 3: on a curb restaurant eating with some folks that look white.
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 4: Oh, that's the homie, that's that's the guy.
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 2: He does. He'll go.
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 3: He went, he went on a plane and he said, Yo,
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 3: if you're not racism, give up your your first class
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 3: to a.
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 4: Right black person.
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 3: Right, So he says the thing to the black guy,
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 3: sure that you're good.
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 4: And the nigga was mad.
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 2: Nigga was vicious, pissed.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 3: I got up out of his seat and was ready
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 3: to fight this dude because Nah, this was my why
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 3: you don't know me?
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 2: You don't know me?
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 4: And who he thought was a white man was actually
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 4: by racial.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 3: Biracial, and he showed me like my daddy, my daddy
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 3: black twenty three and meters on the sidewalk. He's trying
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 3: to prove black. And I was like, this video was crazy,
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 3: but but but what with the end game? After it though, well,
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 3: the nigga apologized and he said I'm just trying to
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 3: look out and the hug and they hugged afterwards because
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 3: he's like, I'm just trying to look out for you.
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 2: Bro.
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm sure he was doing it partly in jest.
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 4: That's that's his content is kind of I think.
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 2: I think this does become difficult when we do acknowledge
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 2: that there are allies.
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 1: We do acknowledge that we all have. I met your
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 1: white friend and we embraced after I was like, damn,
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 1: you know this white but even.
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 4: What there's always a white but abilities right in Mississippi.
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 3: Well, that's the part of the thing of the story
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 3: is that the reason there's no good faith is because a.
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 2: Michigan still I don't know where in Michigan, but Detroit.
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: You got a couple like this is you're not in
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 3: But it's like, but in Mississippi, you're not going to
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 3: get black people in large to have good faith that oh,
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 3: just in Mississippi the big time. So it's like we're
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 3: looking at the situation with skepticism from the beginning. Then
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 3: you get into the details of it. The judge is
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 3: one of the kids mom, and she deactivated all her
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 3: social media along with the.
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 1: So let me ask both y'all give me one way
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 1: that white people could be a part of helping or you.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 1: You sound like you don't think so.
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 4: I think it can be.
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 3: We gotta do you know how to go, you know
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 3: how we do the the Parnic Change Ship, the program.
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 3: They gotta come not abroad but within and to.
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 4: Spend some time I learn, relearn. I agree with that
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 4: because we don't be in the ass like that.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 7: Bro.
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 3: You don't ever hear white people say that they lost
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 3: a son or daughter in a black community. In fact,
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 3: they'll come to the black community and were more liable
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 3: to go take it to the pizza spot up to the.
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 4: Whole experience, right like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, right.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 3: I find one, find one. I bet you can't. You
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 3: cannot find a scenario where.
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 4: That that that that has happened.
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 3: Well, that's the thing we right now on the surface,
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 3: d you think of something right now? In case when
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 3: you just d ten names of recent ship, right and
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 3: that's you add that to the I guess hundreds of
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 3: thousands correct, all right?
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 2: So, but yeah, I don't think a white man that
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 2: went into a black neighborhood.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 3: And child the fact that we got son sundown town
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 3: still in twenty twenty six, Yeah.
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 4: That's the problem.
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 3: Well, the thing is too like when I've said this
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 3: about police brutality as well, like they'll be like, well,
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 3: you know, police kill white people too, Well, hey, check
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 3: it out. If y'all don't care that y'all people get killed,
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 3: that's y'all problem. When our people die, we give a fuck,
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 3: and we're gonna see about it, and we're gonna interrogate it.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 3: We're gonna investigate, and you should stay on it, and
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 3: we're not gonna just let it go to the wayside
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 3: when we hear something crazy about our people. If y'all
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 3: don't have the same love and respect and care for
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 3: your people, that's what y'all think.
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 2: There has nothing to do with us.
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 1: It's funny that you say that because this is not
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 1: a sports podcast, But but we do have white people
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 1: right now rallying and caring about the safety of Kaitlyn.
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 2: Clark, caring, caring. I don't I don't get there because
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 2: you said that, what.
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 3: They have to source reference that to justify their concern.
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: I know, j'all was like, I got thoughts now for
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: y'all that do not know.
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 2: The Republican Party has decided to.
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 1: Sent a nice little letter. Republican lawmakers sent a letter
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 1: to the w n B A questioning the officiating and
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 1: defending of Caitlin Clark.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 2: It argues that Clark.
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 1: Has been subjected to repeated heart fouls an excessive physical
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 1: play since entering the league, and mind you, yes they do.
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 2: They say that.
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: This is racist because she is a white superstar in
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 1: this league and the.
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 2: Black players are hard on her.
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 1: Now, Clark has been involved in several highly publicized physical incidents,
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 1: including being hit in the throat, which the league did
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 1: put as a flagrant. Stephanie White has publicly criticized the
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 1: w NBA officiating, saying Clark and other players do deserve
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: better protection. There have been rowing calls, and what's crazy
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 1: about this is I also feel like this is one
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 1: of those things that it's always been happening, but now
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 1: that the w n b.
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 2: A just has a larger spotlight on it, we're just
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 2: seeing more of it. Babe.
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: Just went to the w NBA game this weekend. Got
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: to see, uh, the Atlanta Dream. Angel Reese was out,
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 1: she was on a boot. But the Atlanta Dream played Portland,
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 1: which is one of the new teams that just got added,
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 1: and maybe it was it was also just letting you know,
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 1: even though it was at Parkway the vibes. That arena
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: was more live than.
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 2: They get up in there, like like I felt like
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 2: I was almost at high school, high school college. You're
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 2: the guy that has front row seats and he was orchestrating, right,
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 2: you suck, you suck. I'm like, oh, this is giving.
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 2: It was just it was it was fun. It was
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 2: a vibe.
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 1: But them girls was it wasn't no, uh, it was
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 1: a light up on that corner.
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 2: The falls. They was flopping like the World Cup. It
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 2: was throwing themselves.
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 1: Nah, I ain't gonna hold your soccer players, but this
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 1: flopping's crazy. But this has been a conversation now because
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 1: now not only are we dealing with racism again, we
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 1: are dealing with politics involving themselves into sports.
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 4: In then who would have done.
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 2: Who would have thought this shit?
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 1: They didn't even care about women, y'all are taking away
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 1: women's rights. Yet now you care about this white woman
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 1: in the motherfucking NBA and the hard fouls she is getting.
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 2: Are you fucking kidding me? Republicans? There are bigger fish
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 2: to fucking fry.
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 3: And what's crazy about it is is that this story
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 3: has it meets at this crazy intersection of like misogyny, putriarchy, racism,
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 3: white nighting, entitled entitlement, like it has all of these
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 3: elements that play right, so first and foremost like and
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 3: my shout out to my brother David Dennis. He made
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 3: this point on First Take last week, and it's like,
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 3: this is what athletes go through. When you are a
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 3: big dog athlete. People are going to try you. Your
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 3: your peers when you play the game, are gonna try you.
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 3: When Lebron James was fresh in the league, niggas tried him.
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 3: Right now Victor women women, Yama is getting tried. They're
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 3: gonna be physical with him. That's the counter know. But
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 3: what I'm saying is that when you're that one, when
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 3: you looked at as that one, people are gonna take it.
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 3: They're gonna give you their best shot. They're gonna take
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 3: it to you to see if you really like that.
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 3: And so this is just what happens. Caitlyn Clark is
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 3: just that. But then the question I asked myself at
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 3: first was who's the best white American NBA player. Maybe
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 3: you say it's Austin Reeves, Maybe you say it's Cooper Flag.
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 2: Maybe no, no, no, I'm saying.
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 4: He used to be Caro loves is fifty nine years.
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 8: Don't do that right now, super Flag, Like you're like,
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 8: white man, we ran into the KS like two years
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 8: younger than yeah, and KKR was never as good as
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 8: New White Boys, right, but these white boys have probably
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 8: heard wa, I'm.
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 2: Mad that we really got know white Americans, that's who
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 2: like that.
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 3: Said, those three are the bigger, you know if you
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 3: want to. I mean, he's not one of the best.
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 3: But like people respect Prichard, people respect Larry Bird, Okay.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 4: Larry Yeah, yeah right, people respect players like that.
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 3: But in my mind, I'm like, Congress would never the
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 3: misogyny comes in. Is that Congress, these purple would These
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 3: white boys have probably heard all kinds of ship on
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 3: the NBA course, gotten elbowed and gotten thumped and and
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 3: filed and all kinds of shit.
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 2: Congress is not going to.
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 3: Write a letter to the NBA saying you have to
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 3: protect these white athletes.
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 4: And they're not coming out and saying.
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 3: It, but they're talking about, well, they're creating a hostile
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 3: work environment if there's any discrimination or retribution going on.
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 4: Discrimination, So what you're saying.
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 1: Discrimination, I think Paul Pierce and KG came out and
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 1: said that when they played it probably wasn't the Garden
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 1: back then, but in Boston they would get called the
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 1: N word.
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 4: Like talks about it. He talks about the abuse.
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 3: Russells, I mean, Russell Westbrook was gonna fucking fan up.
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 3: And you saw a few seasons back because they were
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 3: talking crazy to him and he's not a nigga who's
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 3: gonna stand around and let you talk that.
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 4: As soon as he brought back anybody. Yeah, so where
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 4: we all.
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 3: When niggas were experiencing discrimination, all this shit, y'allways nowhere
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 3: to be found because y'all don't give a fuck. But
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 3: now that this white girl in a league all of
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 3: black women. So what you're saying is that these black
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 3: women who make up the majority of the w NBA
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 3: are being racist and making a hostile work environment that
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 3: might violate the civil rights of Caitland civil rights and
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 3: we're playing basketball. So the picture that just came out,
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 3: who the new civil rights leadership in that in that organization?
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 3: All white people? He replaced all the niggas. It's like two,
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 3: it was like two or three sprinkle of black women
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 3: in there. Everybody else's oh wow, yt, So what has.
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 2: The NBA's response been, though, John.
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 3: So, the w NBA has basically just said, you know,
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 3: we're going to and even the what is her team?
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 3: What is Kaitlin Clark's team, Indiana whatever, I forget what
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 3: the team is called, but they've basically said, like, hey,
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 3: we're going to try to protect our players. The team
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 3: is we're focused on winning, like the players on the
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 3: team are saying they're focused on winning, et cetera, et cetera.
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 1: And I want to add as well, a quote from
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 1: The Times magazine with this happened. Clark is cognizant of
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 1: the racial underpinnings her being a star, and I want
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 1: to quote her just because this isn't us discussing Caitlyn
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 1: Clark as much as it's.
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 2: Like the Republican Party now just large reacting to what
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 2: she's experiencing.
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 1: She says, I want to say I've earned every single thing,
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 1: but as a white person, there is privilege. A lot
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 1: of those players in the league that have been really
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 1: good have been black players.
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 2: This league has been kind of built on them.
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 1: The more we can appreciate that, highlight that talk about
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 1: that and then continue to have brands and companies invest
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 1: in those players that have made this league incredible.
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 2: I think it's very important.
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 1: I have to continue to try to change that. The
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 1: more we can elevate black women, it's going to be
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: a beautiful thing.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 4: So wow.
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 2: And she said that in the Times magazine athlete of the.
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 4: Year might have a black boyfriend or girlfriend.
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, I would guess girl against girlfriends. I
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 2: ain't gonna hold.
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 1: You need to give the benefit of you know what's crazy.
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 2: We was at the game UH this Saturday, and Chris.
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 1: Literally looks at me and I was like, do you
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 1: think that's just a stereotyper? You really think all these
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 1: bitches is gay? And I said, well, I'll let you
• 1:27:20

• 1:27:37
  Speaker 2: don't and they know it, and not a sudden they know.
• 1:27:42

• 1:27:44
  Speaker 4: They explain, they just you know, one hit a quarter
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 4: type of thing. That's it. And they just move on
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 4: and do whatever they do.
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 2: Well, we do see what okay La Clark does have
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 2: a boyfriend.

  Speaker 2: I don't like her tunnel fits.
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 3: Like you see a lot of woman come in tunnel
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 3: fits and may be some of them you can tell
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 3: the ones that is like girly and dressed up.
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 4: But leaning into the ignorance of NBA players.
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 1: No, it's the ignorance of the summertime. First off, w
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 1: NBA takes place during the summer. And I literally had
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 1: this conversation with Yomi with with my man, and I.
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 2: Was like, here's my issue with dressing, because a bitch
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 2: likes to be flying. You are in between dressing like
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 2: a full stud or a hoe. It's hard to do that.
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 2: You are a stud or a ho. You're gonna wear
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 2: the bagga jeans and maybe have to put it on
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 2: the take, but you look like a yes or actually,
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 2: what's what? What's the world we called it? It's a stem? Oh,

• 1:30:10
  Speaker 3: a term that just.
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 2: Referred to the first I'll be dressed like a stem.
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 4: It's gonna come. It's gonna be like it's it's where.
• 1:30:17

• 1:30:24
  Speaker 2: not fully.
• 1:30:25

  Speaker 3: I've heard this community that white people cannot be studded black.
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 4: White women are.
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 2: But yes, you're like, I've never I've never called a
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 2: black lesbian woman.
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 1: But yeah, so see that's what I love. Yeah, butch
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 1: is a race. It actually says butcher's race neutral, but we.
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 2: Don't put it.
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 4: The spokesperson for.
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 2: That's definitely wow. Google, can white people be butch? They
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 2: literally put.
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 4: Up this is crazy, Like.
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 3: Google, Google kind of that that picture looked like Carlo Esposito.
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 2: It does. It's like Google kind of phobic in whatever
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 2: way they could be phobic in this thing.
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 4: So why do we have all of these names describing
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 4: the same thing.
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 2: Can I also say I love you? Kaitlyn got us
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 2: to this conversation.
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 3: This is not.
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 4: I don't want to go back to something this second.
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 2: A bulldagger, I think that's gotta be white people.
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 3: No, I thought, I thought, I don't know what the
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 3: specific I thought that.
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 2: Playing term for a masculine or but lesson.
• 1:33:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 1: Historically used as a pe jordans, it has been embraced
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 1: by some within queer and black communities as a term
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 1: of pride. Oh so it's I'm a bulldagger. It's like
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 1: happiness with lesbian.
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 1: Actually, how I'm going to start to clip agg but no,
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 1: but you and then we're gonna get into us talking
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 1: about your your friends, the Israelites.
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 4: My friends is crazy.
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 3: No, but this is actually a good point about how
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 3: people view these women, right because even with all of
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 3: the stereotypes and all this stuff about gender, because these
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 3: same Republicans would probably make gender jokes about how these
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 3: women are masculine.
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 1: Right, Republicans would have came to her rescue if she
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 1: openly had a girlfriend.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 4: Probably not, probably, you know what I mean.
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 3: But here's where like the racism and the patriarchy come
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 3: in to it, and the white nighting. So like, for
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 3: people who don't know about white nighting, white nighting is
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 3: generally also a pejorative that you know, you see people
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 3: say like, oh, bro, she's not gonna let you hit.
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 4: Bro, she's not gonna let you hit.
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 3: It's usually in response to a man who is defending
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 3: a woman from.
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 4: An attack, an unfair attack of some kind.
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 3: You're inserting yourself in this situation, not being talked to,
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 3: to defend a woman, and people look at that as like, Oh,
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 3: you're just trying hard to be act like you're a representative,
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 3: act like you care about feminism, or act like you
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 3: care about women. And in this particular case, that's kind
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 3: of what's happening because these these eleven Republican men are
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 3: assuming that these women need their help, that Kaitlyn Clark
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 3: needs their help.
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 4: Kaitlyn Clark don't need their help. Kaitlyn Clark is.
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 3: A basketball player. She's been a basketball player for a
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 3: long time. She not no punk bitch. She knows what's
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 3: going on on the course. She knows what the game is.
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 3: Professional basketball players know what the game is. They don't
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 3: need your help. This is like when you see a
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 3: man trying to man explain some shit and they'd be like, oh, sweetheart,
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 3: let me talk. You don't call me sweetheart. I like
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 3: your sweetheart. I don't need you to come in and
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 3: cape up for me. Kaitlyn Clark doesn't need y'all. So
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 3: y'all are jumping in this really just to virtue signal
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 3: to your base that yeah, there is white plight, Yeah
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 3: there is this. They trying to push this narrative for
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 3: the last few years about white people are being discriminated against.
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 2: Anti DEI is about white people.
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 3: This is part of pushing that narrative for going uh uh,
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 3: pushing forth this idea that white people are being discriminated
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 3: against and that we have to stand up to it.
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 3: Nobody's discriminated against Kaitlyn Clark. Some people just don't like her,
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 3: and that's what it's gonna be. Some people don't like
• 1:36:15
  Speaker 3: her mouth, some people don't like her attitude. A lot
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 3: of people like her game. She has plenty of fans.
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 3: There's all kinds of people who are in the go
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 3: to the games, who are wearing Kaitlyn Clark jerseys. They're
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 3: trying to crown her as the face of the league
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 3: and the reason your league is even one of the
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 3: one of the senators or congress people even said verbatim,
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 3: she's the reason why your league is even still around.
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 2: Your league would be defact it wasn't for her.
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 4: There's been an Asia Wilson, Candice Parker, h.
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 3: Tazi, Cheryl Swoop, Witherspoon and Witherspoon.
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 4: Swoops, Don Staley. There's black one in the book.
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 3: There has been black women who have been propping up
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 3: this league and building to w NBA ratings have gone
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 3: up every season.
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 4: Kaitlyn Clark just got there so like this.
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 2: Before to elevate.
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 4: So this league has been growing.
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 3: Caitlyn Clark is a great player, and of course he's
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 3: brought a whole different level of eyes to it. We
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 3: all understand that for various reasons. But like there's now
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 3: there's hate watching of the w n b A. There's
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 3: people who are watching just for Kaitlyn Clark, and there's
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 3: people who are watching just to root against Angel Reese.
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 4: And they haven't even gone to any game, and they
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 4: haven't gone to any game.
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 3: They're not supporting any way other than this, shout out
• 1:37:41

• 1:40:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah. The way that we're talking about them, like they

• 1:40:19
  Speaker 2: run into. I mean, like the KKK, I don't want
• 1:40:22
  Speaker 2: to run into them.
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 3: Next, but is your life? Ain't killing nobody hanging?
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 2: They're killing my brain cells? Actually, you know, as I
• 1:40:30
  Speaker 2: heard them.
• 1:40:30
  Speaker 1: Speak, I was like, oh, my god, they put some
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 1: goddamn one.
• 1:40:38
  Speaker 4: Why she's still stands on the same block.
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 2: You got to engage, you got to I got engaged.
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 1: I selected Hey, if there is any israel light out there,
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 1: they want to come sit on the couch. I will
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 1: come in here, open to understanding your logic. Now you
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 1: can't convince me that you're right, but I'm open to
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 1: sharing my platform to share, to share what selective ignorance.
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 3: I can't wait until they start asking how to read scriptures.
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that's get different.
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 1: Nonetheless, I wanted to talk about real quick, the misinformation
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 1: that I feel like is plaguing us. So I hopped
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 1: in the comments of this, and there's a woman by
• 1:41:31
  Speaker 1: the name of Magic Monet who said people don't know
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 1: the original ku Klux was black men, and the original
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 1: Jews were black as well. Ku Klux is literally African language. Remember,
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 1: everything is stolen from black people, then demonized, then used
• 1:41:50
  Speaker 1: against us.
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 2: Ready all along. So I go in. I see a
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 2: couple of comments like this.
• 1:41:58
  Speaker 1: I look at the comments. They're like, one, sister, you're right,
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 1: spread the knowledge, keep it going, y'all ku Klux Actually
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 1: hold on, I got it somewhere else kup and Klux
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 1: is not from the African language, and klan also is
• 1:42:15
  Speaker 1: not the.
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 2: Ku Klux Klan.
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 1: KKK was founded by white former Confederate soldiers in eighteen
• 1:42:22
  Speaker 1: sixty five and Pulaski, Tennessee, shortly after the American Civil War.
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 2: There's names of the fucking six founders. And why do
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 2: some people claim kk was originally black?
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 4: Why?
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 2: Literally from misidentified or altered historical photos, confusion with unrelated
• 1:42:41
  Speaker 2: black organizations formed during reconstruction, and deliberate misinformation.
• 1:42:47
  Speaker 1: Now, Joe, I know you're reading a book. I don't
• 1:42:49
  Speaker 1: know if it was a went by a different name.
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 1: I'm mad you didn't bring it in, but you said
• 1:42:54
  Speaker 1: you just read something about this my while we're talking
• 1:42:57
  Speaker 1: about ways in which we need to figure out how
• 1:43:00
  Speaker 1: to get out of this state that we're in where
• 1:43:04
  Speaker 1: we can't even be in a room by ourselves with
• 1:43:06
  Speaker 1: these white people in Xyzello menal p.
• 1:43:08
  Speaker 2: One of the biggest things that we need to do first.
• 1:43:12
  Speaker 2: And like you said, y'all know Rosa Park name, y'all
• 1:43:16
  Speaker 2: know Martin Luther King name, y'all know Malcolm X's name,
• 1:43:20
  Speaker 2: y'all know that the civil rights movement happened it took place,
• 1:43:23
  Speaker 2: But what do you really know about what they did
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 2: and the organizing and the boycotting and what it took
• 1:43:28
  Speaker 2: to get certain laws changed and segregation ending in all
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 2: these things. And as I'm reading these comments, I'm like, oh,
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 2: with all the knowledge in our fingertips, y'all are even
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 2: just refusing to look things up.
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 4: You're told stuff them in a favorable position.
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 1: And I'm just like, okay, But also, yes, black people
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 1: work the first kings and queens, and I get that,
• 1:43:52
  Speaker 1: but this idea that you just want to take something
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 1: to wroun with it, And I mean, mind you. We
• 1:43:57
  Speaker 1: come in here too, if we're told something was wrong,
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 1: what do we do? We leave, We keep looking it up,
• 1:44:03
  Speaker 1: and we come back and be like, damn, we further
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 1: research there. But what I'm liking now is I feel
• 1:44:10
  Speaker 1: forced now y'all. Remember MLA format, y'all remember having to
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 1: cite your sources?
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 2: Even coming in here, I'm having to deep dive, Hey,
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 2: summarize this. What are other resources for this? Bring me here?
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 2: Why are people saying this?
• 1:44:28
  Speaker 1: And AI needs to be used in a way to
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 1: also just provide.
• 1:44:33
  Speaker 2: You more resources And then you gotta go and read.
• 1:44:35
  Speaker 1: Then you gotta go and click, and I'm just reading
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 1: so much misinformation and it bothered me in this in
• 1:44:44
  Speaker 1: this clip, not that yes, say no to drugs, absolutely,
• 1:44:47
  Speaker 1: but also like we have encyclopedias at our fingertips.
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 4: As much information as you care to, but you have
• 1:44:56
  Speaker 4: to read.
• 1:44:58
  Speaker 2: You have to read, You have to dissect, comprehension, skills matter.
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 1: You can't be cross reference, like we're doing that now
• 1:45:05
  Speaker 1: with what they're saying is happening with the Carmelo Anthony case.
• 1:45:09
  Speaker 2: Is it being retried?
• 1:45:10
  Speaker 1: What steps are we now because unfortunately, when so many
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 1: people convolute and add their opinions, things become.
• 1:45:17
  Speaker 2: A little jumble.
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, But.
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 2: What is the book you're reading right now, by the.
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 3: Way, Well, it's actually they talk about this in the
• 1:45:25
  Speaker 3: same book that I talked about last week, This non
• 1:45:27
  Speaker 3: Violent Stuff and Gets You Killed by Charles E.
• 1:45:29
  Speaker 4: Cobb. It just basically talks about.
• 1:45:33
  Speaker 3: World War one, World War two and kind of the reconstruction,
• 1:45:36
  Speaker 3: the end of slavery, and that transition period when you know,
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 3: the Civil War was over and America is now trying
• 1:45:44
  Speaker 3: to reconcile what to do with the race issue, and
• 1:45:48
  Speaker 3: then you know in the South they're trying to hold
• 1:45:50
  Speaker 3: on to it, and in the North they're trying to
• 1:45:52
  Speaker 3: eradicate it, and all the varying things that happened during
• 1:45:56
  Speaker 3: that time period with where politics and race stood, right,
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 3: So there was politicians at the time who eventually understood, like, Okay,
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 3: this slavery thing is not tenable anymore. Black people are
• 1:46:10
  Speaker 3: getting rights, black people are becoming more aware, so we
• 1:46:15
  Speaker 3: need to at least throw them a bone and trying
• 1:46:19
  Speaker 3: to like talk to them and communicate with them and
• 1:46:22
  Speaker 3: give them some of the things that they want. And
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 3: obviously the Southern states weren't trying to hear that shit,
• 1:46:28
  Speaker 3: and Southern politicians who were I guess perceived to be
• 1:46:33
  Speaker 3: sympathetic to.
• 1:46:36
  Speaker 4: Treed people.
• 1:46:37
  Speaker 3: Black people in general were looked at as traders, you know,
• 1:46:41
  Speaker 3: to some degree, And there was splintering of white Democrats
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 3: at the time who were like, no, we're not going
• 1:46:48
  Speaker 3: for any sympathy or any empathy for black people, and
• 1:46:51
  Speaker 3: we're going to keep this shit.
• 1:46:53
  Speaker 4: We're gonna hold the line on white supremacy.
• 1:46:56
  Speaker 2: And so.
• 1:46:58
  Speaker 3: That's where you get groups like the Dixiecrats, who were
• 1:47:01
  Speaker 3: basically Southern whites.
• 1:47:02
  Speaker 4: Who were committed to holding.
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 3: That racist line regardless of what other people at the
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 3: time were trying to do, whether they were trying to
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 3: give black people rights or being sympathetic to black voting
• 1:47:14
  Speaker 3: suffrage and all those type of things.
• 1:47:16
  Speaker 2: But the Ku Klux.
• 1:47:17
  Speaker 3: Klan was not invented or was not founded by black people.
• 1:47:23
  Speaker 3: The whole purpose of the Ku Klux Klan was to
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 3: continue to make sure that black people were subjugated, kept
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 3: in their place, and not get any type of up
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 3: of the ideas of advancing in this society. And so like,
• 1:47:36
  Speaker 3: I don't know what was the person's point about or
• 1:47:40
  Speaker 3: what were they trying to say. Who are the people
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 3: they were trying to say were black? That inventive They
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 3: were trying to.
• 1:47:45
  Speaker 1: Pretty much say, y'all aren't listening to what Kodak is
• 1:47:48
  Speaker 1: trying to say? He right, he is jew. And then
• 1:47:51
  Speaker 1: that's the other thing. There's a difference between jew and Jewish.
• 1:47:54
  Speaker 2: There is oh I gotta sneeze.
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 4: Ie, I hate that shit.
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 2: There's a difference in the context.
• 1:48:05
  Speaker 1: However, they are also the same thing depending on how
• 1:48:09
  Speaker 1: you're saying it.
• 1:48:12
  Speaker 2: You have a you have a is.
• 1:48:14
  Speaker 4: Not is from the jb P. But uh, it's like
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 4: it's not the no is.
• 1:48:22
  Speaker 2: That no here we go.
• 1:48:26
  Speaker 1: Jew is a nown that refers to a person who
• 1:48:28
  Speaker 1: belongs to the Jewish people. Jewish is an adjective used
• 1:48:32
  Speaker 1: to describe someone or something connected to the Jewish people, religion,
• 1:48:36
  Speaker 1: or culture. While both words refer to the same group
• 1:48:39
  Speaker 1: of people, a distinction is primarily.
• 1:48:41
  Speaker 3: Grammatical, man that it references the tablet magazine, which is
• 1:48:46
  Speaker 3: a Jewish platform you're gonna talk to, you talk to
• 1:48:52
  Speaker 3: that's biased. We don't call ourselves Blackish other than the
• 1:48:57
  Speaker 3: TV show Whitish.
• 1:49:01
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, I mean, if you if you are, you are monogamous,
• 1:49:11
  Speaker 4: I'm somewhat someone. It's definitely sound like a book title monogamo.
• 1:49:16
  Speaker 3: And they said I'm somewhat is meaning like someone I'm
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 3: similar to, not.
• 1:49:21
  Speaker 2: Just claim Israelite roots.
• 1:49:23
  Speaker 4: No, I'm not.
• 1:49:24
  Speaker 3: Well, No, I don't know, I don't I understand that
• 1:49:28
  Speaker 3: they're saying the twelve tribes of Israel, right, are supposed
• 1:49:32
  Speaker 3: to be the represent the black people in America.
• 1:49:36
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:49:36
  Speaker 3: So that's when when they talk about the Israelites, and
• 1:49:41
  Speaker 3: with Kodak Black and you know, Kanye's even referenced a
• 1:49:45
  Speaker 3: lot of people in rap have referenced that, but not
• 1:49:47
  Speaker 3: necessarily not the experience you had not that, but they're
• 1:49:50
  Speaker 3: speaking from a heritage, a cultural perspective, and religious perspective,
• 1:49:55
  Speaker 3: but not.
• 1:49:57
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, a lot of it.
• 1:49:58
  Speaker 3: That she's gonna be every bigg I mean that.
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 2: I would have rather just a corner of Greek letters.
• 1:50:07
  Speaker 3: Like give me the dog, and he walked talking about
• 1:50:11
  Speaker 3: I would have would I would have what's up, y'all?
• 1:50:16
  Speaker 2: But damn niggas. I now don't even like the Lakers.
• 1:50:20
  Speaker 1: Well, the Lakers are white. They white now anyway white
• 1:50:23
  Speaker 1: the Lakers. I don't even like the Lakers no more
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 1: brou because I don't sew them.
• 1:50:26
  Speaker 2: God damn shut what the fuck that ship was? I mean,
• 1:50:31
  Speaker 2: I don't.
• 1:50:32
  Speaker 3: I don't know a whole lot about like the Hebrew
• 1:50:37
  Speaker 3: Israelites and that type of thing.
• 1:50:38
  Speaker 4: I know, I know the general idea, correct.
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 3: Because like we'll get this out to damn Kendrick Lamar,
• 1:50:45
  Speaker 3: damn was pretty.
• 1:50:45
  Speaker 2: Much goddamn without you bring up the.
• 1:50:49
  Speaker 3: Greatest rapper of modern time is you said jay Z
• 1:50:53
  Speaker 3: was that he's the greatest rapper ever and modern think
• 1:50:56
  Speaker 3: right now and I would argue him abouts, but that's
• 1:50:58
  Speaker 3: nothing conversation.
• 1:51:00
  Speaker 4: We can we can go there another time, guys.
• 1:51:02
  Speaker 3: But but the album Damn is pretty much about this
• 1:51:04
  Speaker 3: whole thing, Like that's the underlying thing about Damn. He
• 1:51:08
  Speaker 3: has these snippets where he talks to his cousin, his
• 1:51:10
  Speaker 3: cousin Carl, who turned black. Hebrew is your Life, And
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 3: like some of those teachings and those things, it's essentially
• 1:51:16
  Speaker 3: about who are the real Jews and who are those
• 1:51:21
  Speaker 3: people that get to You know, we talked the other
• 1:51:23
  Speaker 3: week about black people and like our heritage and if
• 1:51:27
  Speaker 3: we're being land ownership, but we're being finagled out of
• 1:51:32
  Speaker 3: our things because we haven't had this history. And what
• 1:51:34
  Speaker 3: they to my understanding, what black black Hebrew Israelites are
• 1:51:39
  Speaker 3: on is Judah, tribal Judah and all of that. We
• 1:51:43
  Speaker 3: are that we are God's chosen people. The chosen people
• 1:51:46
  Speaker 3: of God are the is the black man, the original man,
• 1:51:50
  Speaker 3: and not these.
• 1:51:50
  Speaker 4: Other people who are telling this story. That's that's what
• 1:51:53
  Speaker 4: they're on. Again, I haven't studied that.
• 1:51:56
  Speaker 3: I don't know anything about that, but I'm just telling
• 1:51:57
  Speaker 3: you I know that that's their story and the sticking
• 1:52:00
  Speaker 3: to it.
• 1:52:00
  Speaker 2: Would y'all want to go to a class? Y'all think
• 1:52:02
  Speaker 2: there's a class on this? Oh?
• 1:52:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Oh for sure.
• 1:52:06
  Speaker 2: I don't want to.
• 1:52:07
  Speaker 1: I don't want to go on with Lakers jerseys, part
• 1:52:10
  Speaker 1: of a class Lakers the colors with Lakers jerseys, and
• 1:52:17
  Speaker 1: we like sit and listen to these teachings and as
• 1:52:20
  Speaker 1: we sit there, we just write down.
• 1:52:21
  Speaker 2: All the things we dis.
• 1:52:24
  Speaker 3: So my homegirls, I remember what she said now because
• 1:52:26
  Speaker 3: she showed the video she showed me with the Latin
• 1:52:29
  Speaker 3: is your lights, which is the same lights.
• 1:52:32
  Speaker 4: She called them jose taps almost through my phone. And
• 1:52:40
  Speaker 4: I didn't even know that Latin is like movement.
• 1:52:44
  Speaker 3: So it's all together. It's just that they just represent
• 1:52:47
  Speaker 3: the Latin because remember the twelve tribes were specific.
• 1:52:52
  Speaker 2: But not only that, you know, Latin X people also
• 1:52:56
  Speaker 2: believe that they come also from Africa as well.
• 1:52:58
  Speaker 4: But there you know that ain't know, yeah, but there.
• 1:53:02
  Speaker 3: But they're saying, but they're on the same wave, right,
• 1:53:05
  Speaker 3: that they are the chosen people of God.
• 1:53:08
  Speaker 4: It's the same thing, exact wrong, the same block. It
• 1:53:11
  Speaker 4: was the same.
• 1:53:12
  Speaker 3: It was just them and they were They had the
• 1:53:15
  Speaker 3: same soundboard, everything was the same they had. It was
• 1:53:18
