  Speaker 2: Whitley head joining us. Now, if you're just joining us,
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: we're talking about Ebony k Williams. She talked about she
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: would never date a bus driver, and then she doubled
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: down and said this.
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: I only saw a handful that even considered the possibility
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: of a bus owner being a more aspirational position. Now,
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: I suspect that some of y'all are the same men
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: that were bringing home c's and d's on your report cards,
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: only to then be coddled by parents that said, well,
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: that's okay as long as you're doing your best. Well, listen,
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: I love and believe in the excellence of black men.
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: So no, my dear c's and d's or any other
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: form of mediocrity is not okay. But could it be
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: that black America has been sold a narrative of average,
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: regular and typical being good enough for us? Well, see,
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: that's called white supremacy.
• 0:54

  Speaker 6: I feel like, if the person is putting God first,
• 1:12
  Speaker 6: is loving you unconditionally, why should the occupation matter?
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: Because she want to go to dinner somewhere I guess expensive,
• 1:19

• 4:41
  Speaker 1: agree with.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Me, you agree with Abney Kate Williams.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: I bet that she could have worded that better. But
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: at the same tour game. All right, So I was
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: I was a trash worker for twenty years, right and
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: they and they made us out here. I started my
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: own company with my wife from I saw the home
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: companies this then. But there's nothing wrong with being a
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: trash worker. Nobody aspire us to be a trash worker,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: you see what I'm saying. So we have to do so,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: you know, our parents have to do better, to push
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: us to do better. You know, although we we are
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: sex workers, we we are needed out here, we are necessary,
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: but we're not looking. We'll always look down upon.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: No, you're not.
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: No, you're not not not in New York Because when
• 5:28
  Speaker 6: that trash start piling up the front, where is the
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: sanitation workers?
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, where a pick.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: Up the work.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: But I'm gonna put up. I'm gonna put a thude
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: like this, we are we all want this when we
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: are needed, but when we aren't needed, they don't. They
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: don't want to look at us like that.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: But that's the y y'all, you're always needed. I can't
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: think of the time that y'are not needed.
• 5:49
  Speaker 6: Never.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's changed. I think that might have
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: been twenty years ago. I tried to holler at my
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: uh my trash worker. He was so fine he got
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: off that truck. I was like, wait a minute, I.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Said, how you doing? Let me help you with that
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: bad I canna lie. I mean, I appreciate all the
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: sanitation under all of them. Sometimes when you block the streets,
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: sometimes we can't get by. But other than that, I
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: appreciate you got that's right, that's right. What's the biler story.
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: That the moral of the story is that everyday working
• 6:17
  Speaker 6: class people are not average, they're not mediocre, they're not typical.
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: And it's the level of eliticism in those words that
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: I don't like. And you know, Ebany is the homie.
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: She's entitled her preference. She can date whoever she wants
• 6:28
  Speaker 6: to date, she can have whatever standard she wants. Well,
• 6:30
  Speaker 6: let's not put down everyday working class people in the process,
• 6:33
  Speaker 6: and us entertainers. We need to stop over inflating our worth. Okay,
• 6:37
  Speaker 6: we are not essential and if those everyday working class
• 6:40
  Speaker 6: people don't support us, we don't have careers.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: Right, no, right, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
