0:54
Speaker 1: god beast to the planet is Monday, and let me
1:01
Speaker 1: shout out to Toronto. Good morning, Torondo, the sixth what's
1:06
Speaker 1: happening in the sixth Man, It feels good to be back.
1:11
Speaker 1: Even though America is burning. We can't sit here and
1:14
Speaker 1: act like we don't know why it's burning though, right,
1:16
Speaker 1: we all know how we got here. We got we
1:18
Speaker 1: got three perfect storms brun out once in America, you know, coronavirus,
1:24
Speaker 1: and then of course the killing of George Floyd. Good,
1:28
Speaker 1: good old, good old fashioned racism, all right, And like
1:31
Speaker 1: I've been saying, ain't no good gonna come to America
1:33
Speaker 1: until they do right by black people. America is never
1:36
Speaker 1: truly atone for his original sin, which is slavery. And
1:39
Speaker 1: they put black people through so damn much and haven't
1:42
Speaker 1: given us a damn thing back. America owes black people
1:44
Speaker 1: for building this country. And you wonder why so many
1:47
Speaker 1: black folks have a problem with patriotism, It's because how
1:49
Speaker 1: can we salute a country that enslaved us and continues
1:52
Speaker 1: to brutalize us. Come on, now, it's not act like
1:55
Speaker 1: we don't know what's going on in this country right now.
1:57
Speaker 1: And like you said, forty million people unemployed, largest unemployment
2:00
Speaker 1: number since the Depression era. Of course, people out here Luton,
2:03
Speaker 1: they feel deprived in one of the wealthiest nations in
2:05
Speaker 1: the world. They want some of those luxuries y'all taught
2:08
Speaker 1: them how to love. Okay, America acts completely clueless in
2:11
Speaker 1: regards to the plight of the poor. And let's not
2:14
Speaker 1: forget too, America's also rebelling against fascism. Okay, that goddamn
2:19
Speaker 1: Trump administration. America's out here rebelling against that fascist regime.
2:23
Speaker 1: They out here rebelling against racism and bigotry. We know,
2:25
Speaker 1: we know how we got here. Come on, come on, people,
2:27
Speaker 1: it's not that clueless. This morning, and hopefully this morning
2:30
Speaker 1: will we'll hear from the district attorney and the other
2:33
Speaker 1: three cops will be charged. I'm praying that they'll do
2:36
Speaker 1: the right thing in charge those three officers. That's gonna
2:41
Speaker 1: happen because they put Keith Ellison. Keith Ellison is one
2:44
Speaker 1: of the prosecutors on the case that I think they
2:45
Speaker 1: removed their original DA from Keith Ellison as a brother.
2:50
Speaker 1: So I'm pretty sure that they're probably gonna lock those
2:52
Speaker 1: three officers up real soon, if they're not already locked up.
2:55
Speaker 1: But I don't know. I haven't I haven't checked the
2:56
Speaker 1: news this morning, I haven't seen anything else yet, but
2:59
Speaker 1: I hope, hopefully what they will be locked up by
3:01
Speaker 1: this morning. All right, Well, let's get the show crack
3:05
Speaker 1: in front page News. What we're talking about you, Well,

3:16
Speaker 1: you expect Shopping to be back in court. He was
3:19
Speaker 1: supposed to be in court actually today, but that date

3:24
Speaker 1: date is. And we'll just be giving you updates of

Speaker 1: get into that next. Can we listen? Can we start
3:35
Speaker 1: with a modern day negro spiritual because we have song

Speaker 1: to get us through these troubling times, because because we
3:41
Speaker 1: have to have a case of optimism, right, we gotta
3:43
Speaker 1: believe everything. Everything's gonna be good, don't we. My God,
3:46
Speaker 1: My God told me, My God told me to tell
3:48
Speaker 1: y'all this morning that we're gonna be high dark nights
3:55
Speaker 1: and my prayers. Morning. Everybody is DJ v Angela, Ye,
4:01
Speaker 1: Charlomagne and God, we all the breakfast club. Let's getting
4:03
Speaker 1: some front page news where we start? Ye? Well, this
4:08
Speaker 1: morning front page news will be talking all about George Floyd. Now,
4:11
Speaker 1: Derek Chavin, the officer arrested and George Floyd's death has
4:15
Speaker 1: a record of shootings and complaints. They said they were
4:17
Speaker 1: at least eighteen conducts complaints filed against him. Two of
4:21
Speaker 1: them resulted in reprimands. It feels like that's not enough.
4:25
Speaker 1: Now he did Also, they were supposed to have him
4:29
Speaker 1: in court this morning, but it looks like that date
4:31
Speaker 1: has been delayed. They didn't really give a reason why
4:35
Speaker 1: the date was delayed. But now he'll be in court
4:37
Speaker 1: on June eighth, so that's his next court hearing. Now,
4:43
Speaker 1: George Floyd's brother spoke to Donald Trump. Here is Donald
4:46
Speaker 1: Trump discussing speaking to the family of George Floyd. The
4:49
Speaker 1: death of George Floyd on the streets of Minneapolis was
4:54
Speaker 1: a grave tragedy. It should never have happened. It has
4:59
Speaker 1: filled amr all over the country with horror, anger, and grief.
5:06
Speaker 1: Yesterday I spoke to George's family and expressed the sorrow
5:11
Speaker 1: of foreign entire nation for their loss. Now, George's brother,
5:16
Speaker 1: Philonie Floyd, said that the conversation that he did have
5:19
Speaker 1: with Donald Trump was pretty quick. Here's what he said.
5:22
Speaker 1: It was hard. I was trying to talk to him,
5:24
Speaker 1: but he just kept pushing me off, like I don't
5:27
Speaker 1: want to hear what you're talking about and I just
5:29
Speaker 1: told him I want justice. I said, I can't believe
5:33
Speaker 1: that they committed a modern day lynching and broad daylight
5:41
Speaker 1: all right. George Floyd's family also intends to have an
5:43
Speaker 1: independent autopsy performed. There was a lot of outraigs over
5:47
Speaker 1: the medical examiner saying that there is no physical findings
5:50
Speaker 1: of traumatic asphyxia or extangulation. They said that George Floyd
5:54
Speaker 1: likely died from a compilation of police restraint, underlying health conditions,
5:57
Speaker 1: and any potential in toxicans and assists m George Floyd's
6:01
Speaker 1: family is now doing their own autopsy. Ben Crump, who
6:04
Speaker 1: was the family's attorney, said that he and the family
6:06
Speaker 1: reject the notion from the Minneapolis Medical Examiner that the
6:09
Speaker 1: knee from the police officer on George's neck for almost
6:12
Speaker 1: nine minutes was not the proximate cause of his death.
6:15
Speaker 1: So they're trying to make it seem like it was
6:16
Speaker 1: also underlying health conditions and the fact that he had
6:19
Speaker 1: been drinking. Okay, yeah, so we all didn't see the
6:23
Speaker 1: video of a white devil, racist bigot with his knee
6:27
Speaker 1: on the back of George's next now, over and over,
6:30
Speaker 1: I can't breathe, come on, we seen it was what
6:33
Speaker 1: was the relationship that they knew each other, they worked
6:35
Speaker 1: with each other, Was any of that true effectual? Well,
6:38
Speaker 1: they both worked yeah, one of them, you know, Chavin
6:42
Speaker 1: obviously was a police officer that did security, but he
6:45
Speaker 1: also worked with George Floyd. But George Floyd, they said,
6:48
Speaker 1: they may not have known each other. Their paths might
6:50
Speaker 1: not have crossed, so it's not certainly they knew each other. Okay,
6:55
Speaker 1: it's just crazy that this guy even still had a job. Like,
6:58
Speaker 1: I mean, he shot and killed a brother the name
7:00
Speaker 1: Wayne Rees in two thousand and six, and then shot
7:03
Speaker 1: multiple civilians while in uniform. Like you tell me, at
7:08
Speaker 1: what what job can you have where you keep making
7:10
Speaker 1: those kind of mistakes and still still stay employed. Well,
7:13
Speaker 1: they said, even in one of the closes where he worked,
7:15
Speaker 1: there were a lot of complaints against him. Even the
7:17
Speaker 1: owner had to reprimand him at times because he was
7:19
Speaker 1: too aggressive when speaking to the patrons. So it looks
7:22
Speaker 1: like he had an ongoing issue. Attorney General Keith Ellison
7:25
Speaker 1: will be leading the prosecution of George Floyd's death now,
7:28
Speaker 1: the governor announced Sunday he has asked him to assist
7:32
Speaker 1: County Attorney Mike Freeman in the forthcoming case, and he
7:35
Speaker 1: Ellison has accepted that case. They plan on meeting actually
7:37
Speaker 1: today to start their joint work. The score right now, cops,
7:42
Speaker 1: you've allowed four to five days with people tearing up
7:46
Speaker 1: cities all across America simply because you don't want to
7:49
Speaker 1: arrest three police officers. Makes no sense. Should have been arrested,
7:54
Speaker 1: that would be that would be an easy trade for me.
7:56
Speaker 1: Burn burn Now cities across America arrest three cops. George
8:00
Speaker 1: Floyd's family did speak to the police that Minneapolis please
8:03
Speaker 1: directly for the first time live on CNN, and one
8:05
Speaker 1: of the questions that Floyd's brother asked was whether the
8:08
Speaker 1: other officers involved would be arrested, and police chief responded,
8:11
Speaker 1: being silent or not intervening to me, you're being complicit.
8:14
Speaker 1: Mister Floyd died in our hands. So I'm not sure
8:16
Speaker 1: what's going to happen, but feels like that is what
8:19
Speaker 1: has to happen. All right, WELLLA is your front page news.
8:23
Speaker 1: Get it off your chest eight hundred five eight five
8:26
Speaker 1: one oh five one. If you need to vent, you
8:28
Speaker 1: need to highlight us, call us up right now, phone
8:30
Speaker 1: line to wide open. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
8:33
Speaker 1: the breakfast Club. I'm telling of year. This is your
8:43
Speaker 1: time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad
8:46
Speaker 1: or blessed. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one.
8:48
Speaker 1: We want to hear from you on the breakfast Club. Hello,
8:51
Speaker 1: who's this? Hey? And be what's going on this morning?
8:55
Speaker 1: Break what up? Man? Get it off your chests? Bro?
8:57
Speaker 1: Good morning, Good morning to Angelo point eli man. Um,
9:03
Speaker 1: your your dad was a cop, right? Um? I have
9:06
Speaker 1: a suggestion, and I don't know if it's something that
9:08
Speaker 1: they already do, but I remember, um doctor doctor did
9:13
Speaker 1: Gregory remember mentioning, why don't we have tops be licensed
9:18
Speaker 1: like like a physician or like a CDL driver where
9:21
Speaker 1: they have to go every couple of years and get
9:23
Speaker 1: recertified and they're retested because I think when they get
9:26
Speaker 1: into the fourth um done into the UM law enforcements,
9:29
Speaker 1: they gotta take physicals, they gotta take psychological exams, and
9:32
Speaker 1: then later on they get all these reprimands and they
9:36
Speaker 1: get all these um uh, bad things on their records,
9:40
Speaker 1: but they're still allowed to remain cops because there's no
9:43
Speaker 1: recertification program and nothing like that. They don't get retrained
9:46
Speaker 1: for certain things. So it's like you keep all these
9:48
Speaker 1: bad cops on on on on on the fourth and
9:52
Speaker 1: they have all these bad records because we don't we
9:54
Speaker 1: don't recertify them for a couple of years. I think
9:56
Speaker 1: that's the top. Every couple of years. We should be
9:59
Speaker 1: able to do your physical all over, and you should
10:00
Speaker 1: do your psychological exams all over so that you don't
10:03
Speaker 1: have these these bad apt pool and in the bunge
10:07
Speaker 1: measuring it all up and not knowing how to deal
10:08
Speaker 1: with the public. Yeah, my dad has been an officer
10:11
Speaker 1: for over fifteen years on the job. But I think
10:15
Speaker 1: they do retrain. I think you do have to take
10:17
Speaker 1: a test every couple of years. I know when you retire,
10:19
Speaker 1: every year you have to take a test to maintain
10:22
Speaker 1: that you can keep your weapon, your service weapon. But
10:24
Speaker 1: that's a good thing. But I think they should be
10:26
Speaker 1: checked mentally as well, not just physical, y'all, just being
10:28
Speaker 1: able for mentally as well. I think you should be
10:32
Speaker 1: like a lighted police officer in the sense of listen
10:35
Speaker 1: if if if you have certain things on your record
10:38
Speaker 1: of what a period of time, just like if you
10:39
Speaker 1: have a driving record, you have your life. I agree,
10:44
Speaker 1: because what are all those complaints for if nothing happens,
10:46
Speaker 1: if people are filing these complaints, and what's the whole
10:49
Speaker 1: point of the civilian complaint board? Yeah? I agree. It
10:51
Speaker 1: should definitely be a point system. And if you have
10:53
Speaker 1: a certain amount of points, you lose your your your
10:55
Speaker 1: license as being a police officer, just like you would
10:57
Speaker 1: lose your license as a driver. I agree, Thank you, Red.
11:00
Speaker 1: And you also have and you also have to set
11:02
Speaker 1: a certain precedent by charging your damn cops when they
11:05
Speaker 1: shoot and kill people. Okay, a dude shopping had killed
11:09
Speaker 1: somebody in two thousand and six. What are we talking
11:11
Speaker 1: about him? Yes? Hello, who's this? He's Brian called forbody
11:17
Speaker 1: watch in DC. Running from DC. What's up, broke? Get
11:20
Speaker 1: it off your chests, hey man, We're just calling and
11:22
Speaker 1: say that some of the protests downtown last night yesterday
11:26
Speaker 1: evening down the White House. Man, it's a lot of
11:30
Speaker 1: a lot of white people out there. They're doing all
11:33
Speaker 1: the Vanderlist, doing all least track lives matters. Hey, stuff man,
11:37
Speaker 1: it's making us a fan. Just want to not have
11:40
Speaker 1: them pointing the finger at us. Some point the finger here,
11:42
Speaker 1: who's really doing all the Vanderlist and make all the
11:44
Speaker 1: writers everything. Yeah, I saw a lot of that online.
11:48
Speaker 1: I saw people white people writing Black Lives Matter on
11:50
Speaker 1: the wall and say, dude, what do you Yeah, but
11:53
Speaker 1: I don't understand. I really think, um, America, that probably
11:57
Speaker 1: that has to piss them off to see white people
12:00
Speaker 1: fighting alongside black people, like like America can now have
12:04
Speaker 1: the narrative that white kids are actually fighting for black folks, right,
12:07
Speaker 1: So America can't have the narrative that white kids are
12:09
Speaker 1: fed up with the direction of this country that defeats
12:11
Speaker 1: the whole purpose of white supremacy. That has to be
12:13
Speaker 1: a white supremacist worst nightmare to think that. Yeah, I
12:17
Speaker 1: don't even know if it's I'm fighting for us then
12:19
Speaker 1: taking advantage of the situation and using house for their
12:24
Speaker 1: push their agenda, because I mean, you got people down
12:27
Speaker 1: there it's yelling no, don't do that, don't take that,
12:29
Speaker 1: don't do that, stop doing it, you know us, because
12:31
Speaker 1: we're there trying to get our point across, and they
12:34
Speaker 1: guy's just he's burning and everything else, and it's making
12:37
Speaker 1: it hard to get the actual message across. If you're
12:40
Speaker 1: gonna cause all this destruction, Yeah, I think it's a
12:42
Speaker 1: little bit of both. I think it's someone on our
12:44
Speaker 1: side and doing what's right, and I think it's some
12:46
Speaker 1: taking in advantage. I see one dude looked like he
12:48
Speaker 1: had a whole goal pro set up in his crib,
12:50
Speaker 1: and then on the ceiling he had like a Maga shirt.
12:53
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's a lot of people taking advantage as well.
12:55
Speaker 1: You're gonna always have coin to a pro that disrupt protests,
12:58
Speaker 1: but you know, you can't post me that say things
13:00
Speaker 1: like I wish they love black people the way they
13:04
Speaker 1: love black culture, and then when they show up for
13:06
Speaker 1: black people and want to fight with us, we'd be like,
13:08
Speaker 1: wait a minute, you might be an agent that some
13:10
Speaker 1: of them all, you know, some of them all get
13:13
Speaker 1: it off but just fed up, and some of them
13:16
Speaker 1: are fact that if I was, if I was a
13:18
Speaker 1: white supremacist, I'll be out here spinning the narrative too,
13:20
Speaker 1: saying that those people are planting in their agents, because
13:23
Speaker 1: I would not want anybody to think that Americas are
13:26
Speaker 1: actually unifying white people actually out there fighting for black
13:29
Speaker 1: people's rights. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five
13:33
Speaker 1: one Get it off your chests. It's the breakfast Club.
13:35
Speaker 1: Come on the breakfast club. This is your time to
13:41

14:02
Speaker 1: things you know in this world that you know sometimes
14:04
Speaker 1: you can't understand, but you know, we gotta get through it.
14:07
Speaker 1: And I definitely got my chest about a lot of
14:09
Speaker 1: these celebrities. The celebrities is not using their voice, use
14:14
Speaker 1: their voice for the people. They are so much worried
14:16
Speaker 1: about their assets. When when when when all other people,
14:20
Speaker 1: all our people, give them get you know, all type
14:23
Speaker 1: of resources to make them who they are. But when
14:26
Speaker 1: it comes to politics, and I don't understand, you know,
14:29
Speaker 1: everybody's not you know it's a politics, but at least
14:32
Speaker 1: for our people, you know, say something. Don't stay silent.
14:36
Speaker 1: Don't stay silently y'all. You know people worried about oh
14:38
Speaker 1: people bring it into the Gucca do when Gucci don't
14:42
Speaker 1: really don't care nothing about us? So why support where
14:44
Speaker 1: support people don't care about us? But celebrities have all
14:47
Speaker 1: this power, but then standing solid, I'll say this, I
14:51
Speaker 1: don't know that I look at this time of celebrities
14:53
Speaker 1: to see like what does this person think about things?
14:56
Speaker 1: But I do feel like, yes, yeah, but I understand
14:59
Speaker 1: being this to point it in some people who you
15:01
Speaker 1: feel like, wow, I thought they'd be you know, at
15:03
Speaker 1: least say something about it. But again, I don't look
15:06
Speaker 1: at celebrities for that. Yeah, I mean either I'm looking
15:09
Speaker 1: I'm not looking at that celebrities to be like, oh man,
15:11
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to his page and see what he said.
15:13
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't care, honestly, not at this point,
15:16
Speaker 1: not at this time. I think. I think everybody that's
15:18
Speaker 1: being loud right now are the people that's supposed to
15:20
Speaker 1: be in loud, And that's the actual people, you know
15:22
Speaker 1: what I mean, And not dimension even when it comes
15:24
Speaker 1: to some of the celebrities. Everybody fights different, Like you
15:26
Speaker 1: don't know what people are doing, you know, behind the scenes,
15:28
Speaker 1: what kind of calls are being made, what kind of
15:30
Speaker 1: meetings are being had. Like just because a person isn't
15:33
Speaker 1: showing up to a protest doesn't mean that they're not
15:35
Speaker 1: out there fighting. Some people fight different everybody got a
15:37
Speaker 1: position to play. Absolutely. Hello, who's this hey, miss Monique,
15:42
Speaker 1: come on and get it off your chests. Yeah. Well,
15:45
Speaker 1: I'm very upset about how George Floyd was murdered in Minneapolis.
15:49
Speaker 1: You know, I didn't even know that that happened because
15:52
Speaker 1: I don't watch the news like that to this pandemic.
15:55
Speaker 1: And my son told me that my son is twenty two,
15:58
Speaker 1: and he told me what went down, and I was
16:00
Speaker 1: like what. And when I said that, it's just like
16:02
Speaker 1: touched me. When I heard that man say he can't breathe,
16:05
Speaker 1: it was like Eric Gardner all over again. You know,
16:08
Speaker 1: it's touching, Like, you know, my family re from Alabama,
16:11
Speaker 1: so now I'll see why my grandmother ran from down there,
16:14
Speaker 1: you know, and she's still dealing with racism. I know,
16:18
Speaker 1: police in corrupt, but this this got to stop. Just
16:22
Speaker 1: have to stop, right. We can't, we can't. We can't
16:24
Speaker 1: take it no more. Our heart is bleeding, our hearts
16:27
Speaker 1: is bleeding. You know, we want justice. We want this
16:31
Speaker 1: man in jail for what he did to George Floyd.
16:34
Speaker 1: I don't condone the riots. I don't condone any of
16:36
Speaker 1: the riots at all, but as far as justice needs
16:41
Speaker 1: to be served all right, now, just keep on happening
16:46
Speaker 1: with no repercussions, Like this is ridiculous, And why do
16:49
Speaker 1: we keep saying all cops aren't corrupt. The whole police
16:54
Speaker 1: system is corrupt. So if you're a part of that system,
16:57
Speaker 1: you're a part of that corruption, especially if you're not
17:00
Speaker 1: doing anything to change it. Yeah, but I think she
17:02
Speaker 1: means all police officers aren't bad. That's what I think
17:04
Speaker 1: she meant. And she's right, all police officers are bad.
17:06
Speaker 1: There's a lot of and there's a lot of police
17:10
Speaker 1: officer I'm standing up right now saying it is wrong
17:12
Speaker 1: and saying what that that chocole was wrong and saying
17:14
Speaker 1: that that that officer needs to be arrested and needs
17:17
Speaker 1: to be charged with murders. So there's there's there's some
17:19
Speaker 1: officers standing up and we've been joining the protests. Yeah,
17:22
Speaker 1: but the whole system is corrupt, Like the whole entire
17:26
Speaker 1: system is a corrupt system. So it doesn't even make
17:29
Speaker 1: any sense to say one individual it's not corrupt. I
17:33
Speaker 1: mean it does. I mean for some people, she just
17:35
Speaker 1: saying she knows that all cops aren't bad, which is
17:37
Speaker 1: which is facts, which is true. All cops all cops
17:41
Speaker 1: aren't bad, but the system is. The whole system is terrible.
17:44
Speaker 1: Get it off your chest. Eight hundred five five, one
17:47
Speaker 1: oh five one. If you need to vent, you can
17:48
Speaker 1: hit us up at any time. Now, we got rumors
17:50
Speaker 1: on the way. Yes, and just In responds to the
17:53
Speaker 1: caller who was upset about celebrities not speaking up and
17:56
Speaker 1: speaking out. What's tell you what's been happening in the
17:59
Speaker 1: celet pretty world when it comes to George Floyd, who
18:02
Speaker 1: is speaking out and who is going back and forth
18:05
Speaker 1: on social media with people. All right, we'll get into
18:08
Speaker 1: that next. Keep it loft. This the breakfast club. Good morning,
18:10
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. P j Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy.
18:17
Speaker 1: We all the breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors.
18:20
Speaker 1: Let's talk Tory Lanes. So Tory Lanes and Chicana had
18:23
Speaker 1: a back and forth. You know Chicana from Love and
18:25
Speaker 1: Hip Hop Atlanta. Now, Chicana was on her life previously
18:29
Speaker 1: and she was talking about the looting and the protesting
18:32
Speaker 1: and she wants people to stop tearing up businesses. Here's
18:36
Speaker 1: what that sounded like. Y'all, y'all can say whatever y'all
18:41
Speaker 1: want to say they Rice is whatever, I don't want
18:42
Speaker 1: to hit. Yeah, well, Tory Lane's posted with all the
18:46
Speaker 1: things going on, I'm seeing this lady crying over the
18:48
Speaker 1: Gucci store being broken into the f and Gucci store.
18:52
Speaker 1: Shorty well Chicana then was in his comments on his life,
18:56
Speaker 1: and he did put her on and the two of
18:58
Speaker 1: them had a conversation, and here is how it went.
19:00
Speaker 1: Have you going outside of the marsh with the people yet?
19:02
Speaker 1: Now I had a marsh with the people. Have you
19:04
Speaker 1: been around when the looting is going on? Have you've
19:07
Speaker 1: been around in like any of those places where it
19:09
Speaker 1: has been going on, in the moments of it going on,
19:12
Speaker 1: and now I haven't been. I'm not I don't appreciate
19:15
Speaker 1: that white man killing less. I don't think that's cool.
19:17
Speaker 1: I'm not with that, But I don't think I don't
19:19
Speaker 1: think we're gonna get into web by stealing these people. Goochie,
19:23
Speaker 1: I don't even wear it anyway. It's another way we
19:25
Speaker 1: could get out. Point across the brock, I scream, I'm black.
19:28
Speaker 1: You thought we angry? Right? Listen, man, Both of them
19:31
Speaker 1: are entitled to their opinions. But those buildings will be back.
19:34
Speaker 1: But the lives of Black people killed at the hands
19:36
Speaker 1: of the police are gone forever. So to me, when
19:38
Speaker 1: you just tell protesters, rioters, whatever you want to call
19:41
Speaker 1: them to just cut it out, it's not that simple.
19:43
Speaker 1: You're not acknowledging the pain of the people. You've given folks,
19:46
Speaker 1: nor the choice, nor the outlet they expressed themselves. Plus
19:48
Speaker 1: they don't think they're gonna get justice any other way.
19:51
Speaker 1: Folks have a right to be angry, and sadly, when
19:53
Speaker 1: they're angry, they're gonna express that ain't in various ways,
19:55
Speaker 1: and in tearing up buildings is one of them. Man,
19:58
Speaker 1: did y'all see that old black and who they tore
20:01
Speaker 1: up his business? There's a lot of people, minorities crying
20:07
Speaker 1: business and stock and it's been ruined. Talking about the
20:11
Speaker 1: old video from the nineties during the Rodney King rights.
20:17
Speaker 1: Now he wasn't yelling, he was crying. You know. There's
20:20
Speaker 1: there's a couple of business has been burned down and
20:25
Speaker 1: people can say, I can never go back, I can't
20:27
Speaker 1: afford you know, my insurance doesn't cover all of it.
20:29
Speaker 1: So a lot of minorities at her point, and I
20:32
Speaker 1: agree with that, And you shouldn't point the finger at
20:34
Speaker 1: the looters, point the finger at America. This is America's part.
20:38
Speaker 1: If you're gonna point a finger at the looters, you
20:40
Speaker 1: gotta point two fingers back in America. The America is
20:43
Speaker 1: the root cause of this all right now, Machine Gun
20:46
Speaker 1: Kelly has raised his voice to talk about protesting, and
20:49
Speaker 1: he actually was outside protesting as well. He posted some
20:52
Speaker 1: pictures and here's what he had to say to his fans.
20:55
Speaker 1: If you look like me, if you have racism in
20:57
Speaker 1: your heart and on your mind and coming out your mouth,
21:00
Speaker 1: you I'm ashamed of you. If you enjoy my music
21:03
Speaker 1: or you like my movies, I don't want you watching.
21:05
Speaker 1: I don't want your business you. I don't want nothing.
21:08
Speaker 1: That's a part of the evil agenda. And that's not
21:10
Speaker 1: what our generations legacy is gonna be. Stuff up and
21:14
Speaker 1: speak out for our fellow people going through all this
21:17
Speaker 1: hell right now, and and encourage good evil is running
21:20
Speaker 1: the show. Man, take it back from them, these motherfucker
21:24
Speaker 1: I agree, Man, dropping the clues bombs from Machine and Kelly,
21:27
Speaker 1: and dropping the clues bomb for all the white kids,
21:29
Speaker 1: all the white people out there fighting with the black poles,
21:32
Speaker 1: standing side by side with with your black brothers, and sisters,
21:35
Speaker 1: and every white supremacist in America right now is confused.
21:38
Speaker 1: Its hell. Lasting America wants at a time like this
21:41
Speaker 1: is unity. I actually think it's a white supremacists worst
21:43
Speaker 1: nightmare to have white people out there actually fighting with
21:46
Speaker 1: black people. That's why they keep trying to push the
21:48
Speaker 1: narrative out there that you know, these white folks are
21:51
Speaker 1: being paid to do that, their agents. I'm sure it's
21:53
Speaker 1: cointell pro and these protests black and white, but for
21:56
Speaker 1: the ones that aren't agents, and they just out there
21:58
Speaker 1: fighting because they love black people. Salute to you white folks. Yeah,
22:02
Speaker 1: I love I absolutely positively love that. And on a
22:04
Speaker 1: side note, I didn't know skateboards with that that strong skateboards,
22:11
Speaker 1: but the damage to skateboards like skateboards, damn skateboards is
22:16
Speaker 1: gangster is hell. I'm gonna tell you something. I'm so
22:18
Speaker 1: happy that there's so many white people out there because
22:21
Speaker 1: if it was just us negroes, oh they have got us.
22:23
Speaker 1: It had been so much desk this weekend now, it
22:25
Speaker 1: had been so much missing black folks. If it was
22:27
Speaker 1: just black folks out there, white folks that are actually
22:30
Speaker 1: out there for the right cause, carry on all right now.
22:33
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan has also spoken out amongst amidst everything that's
22:36
Speaker 1: happening with George Floyd, and he released a statement. He said,
22:39
Speaker 1: I am deeply sad and truly pained and plain angry.
22:42
Speaker 1: I see and feel everyone's pain, outrage and frustration. I
22:45
Speaker 1: stand with those who are calling out the ingrained racism
22:47
Speaker 1: and violence to our people of color in our country.
22:50
Speaker 1: We have had enough, so that was part of the
22:52
Speaker 1: statement that Michael Jordan put out. He said, I don't
22:55
Speaker 1: have the answers, but our collective voice is so strength
22:57
Speaker 1: and the inability to be divided by others. We must
22:59
Speaker 1: listen to each other, show compassion and empathy, and never
23:02
Speaker 1: turn our backs on senseless brutality. We need to continue
23:06
Speaker 1: peaceful expressions against injustice and demand accountability our unified our
23:10
Speaker 1: unified voice needs to put pressure on our leaders to
23:12
Speaker 1: change our laws or else we need to use our
23:14
Speaker 1: vote to create systematic change. Cardie b also has posted
23:19
Speaker 1: a video and she was talking about the looters and
23:22
Speaker 1: everybody being upset over the murder of George Floyd. And
23:24
Speaker 1: here's what she had to say about people just being
23:27
Speaker 1: tired of being peaceful seeing people looting and going extremely
23:32
Speaker 1: outraged and as much as people it's so against it.
23:37
Speaker 1: At this point, I feel like I'm not against it,
23:39
Speaker 1: even though it do scare me and I don't want
23:42
Speaker 1: anybody to get hurt. But it's just it's really frustrating.
23:45
Speaker 1: You want to know why, because how many peaceful protests
23:49
Speaker 1: have we seen. Like I've been doing police brutality videos
23:53
Speaker 1: ever since my teeth been up, and the only that
23:56
Speaker 1: change has been my teeth, Like you know what I'm saying.
24:00
Speaker 1: So it's like, motherfucker could take the grown an adult
24:03
Speaker 1: way and at peaceful people aren't tired of that. So
24:07
Speaker 1: now this is what people have to resort to. She's right.
24:10
Speaker 1: It goes back to what I said earlier. You got
24:11
Speaker 1: to acknowledge the pain of the people like you. You've
24:14
Speaker 1: You've left people with no other choice at least that's
24:16
Speaker 1: how they fail. They're desperate, they got an other outlet.
24:18
Speaker 1: They expressed themselves. Plus forty million people being unemployed. Man,
24:23
Speaker 1: you know, poverty is real. People have been sitting in
24:24
Speaker 1: the house for three months. They just want to feel good,
24:27
Speaker 1: and you know, if getting some free stuff makes them
24:29
Speaker 1: feel good, sally, that's what they're gonna do. And That's
24:32
Speaker 1: why I think Michael Jordan should set up a pop
24:34
Speaker 1: up shop and have legal looting. Just let Michael Jordan's
24:38
Speaker 1: buy a building and just put mad Jordan's in there
24:41
Speaker 1: and just let people run up in there, legally dangerous.
24:46
Speaker 1: They might just give them away. Just give anybody get
24:48
Speaker 1: a free pair of Jordans. You know that way, because
24:49
Speaker 1: they even when they see people loo, when you see
24:52
Speaker 1: them stealing sneakers from each other, Wow, yeah you can.
24:55
Speaker 1: That's how you can tain in the chaos a little bit,
24:57
Speaker 1: make it like a fair Factor challenge or something a Hey, well,
25:00
Speaker 1: I'm angela Year and that is your rumor report. All right,
25:02
Speaker 1: thank you, miss ye. Now when we come back, we
25:04
Speaker 1: got front page news. What are we talking about? Yes,
25:07
Speaker 1: I'll give you some updates on what was happening overnight.
25:09
Speaker 1: We'll tell you about the curfews that a lot of
25:11
Speaker 1: these cities, at least forty cities and Washington, d C.
25:13
Speaker 1: Having posed curfews. And we'll tell you some new developments.
25:17
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get into that next. Keep a lock
25:19
Speaker 1: this to breakfast club. Good morning, Good morning. Everybody is
25:22
Speaker 1: DJ Envy Angela Ye, Charlomagne the guy. We all to
25:26
Speaker 1: breakfast club. Good morning, good morning, we're happening. Let's get
25:30
Speaker 1: in some front page news where we starting you, Well,
25:35
Speaker 1: let's start with George Floyd's family. Now, they spoke with
25:38
Speaker 1: the Minneapolis Police Department for the first time live on
25:41
Speaker 1: the news, and here's what happened. I won't know if
25:44
Speaker 1: he's going to get justice for my brother and arrest
25:48
Speaker 1: all the all and complete being silent or not intervening
25:52
Speaker 1: to me, you're complicit. So I don't see a level
25:56
Speaker 1: of distinction any different. Obviously they're charging those decisions will
26:00
Speaker 1: have to come through our county attorney's office. Certainly, the
26:03
Speaker 1: FBI is investigating that my decision to fire all four
26:07
Speaker 1: officers was not based on some sort of hierarchy. Mister
26:11
Speaker 1: Floyd died in our hands, and so I see that
26:16
Speaker 1: as being complicit. It's really simple. I mean, I've gotten
26:20
Speaker 1: in trouble before. I've been around people who who've had guns,
26:23
Speaker 1: who've had drugs. If somebody don't claim the gun, has
26:26
Speaker 1: claimed the drug, all of us go to jail. Like
26:27
Speaker 1: every single one of those people are accessories to murder.
26:30
Speaker 1: All those cops are accessories. Are they are? And in
26:32
Speaker 1: that little bull crap body footage that they released last week,
26:36
Speaker 1: which is disrespectful. Well, it was all bleeped out. You
26:39
Speaker 1: couldn't hear what they were saying, and everything was blacked out.
26:41
Speaker 1: That that was that was for no reason. And did
26:44
Speaker 1: you see did you see the video that came out yesterday?
26:46
Speaker 1: But it was beating up George Floyd in the back
26:47
Speaker 1: of the in the car. Yeah, absolutely, and then pulled
26:51
Speaker 1: them out of the car. I mean he pulled them
26:52
Speaker 1: out of the car because at first they said he
26:54
Speaker 1: wouldn't get in the car, but then they pulled them
26:55
Speaker 1: out the car. It's crazy. First degree murder accessories the murder.
27:00
Speaker 1: The first court appearance for a Derek Shavin, who was
27:02
Speaker 1: the former Minnesota police officer charged in the death of
27:05
Speaker 1: George Floyd, has been moved to June eighth. It was
27:07
Speaker 1: supposed to be today, and records indicate no specific reasoning
27:12
Speaker 1: for why that date was reset. But he does remain
27:14
Speaker 1: in custody, and he was charged with third degree murder
27:17
Speaker 1: and second degree manslaughter, two felonies where they say intent
27:22
Speaker 1: is a key element. And it's very important to note
27:25
Speaker 1: that he shot two people before and killed one. He
27:28
Speaker 1: had a record of twenty complaints to two letters of
27:31
Speaker 1: reprimand there was absolutely no reason for that guy to
27:34
Speaker 1: even still be on the police force. You know what
27:36
Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's why you got to set a certain
27:37
Speaker 1: precedent by charging your damn cops when they shoot and
27:41
Speaker 1: kill people and fire them period. All right. Now, a
27:46
Speaker 1: man who drove a tanker truck into a crowd of
27:48
Speaker 1: protesters in Minnesota Sunday night was charged with assault. I
27:52
Speaker 1: don't know if you guys saw that. I definitely thought
27:56
Speaker 1: video as well. So that person has been charged with assault. Also,
28:00
Speaker 1: shortly past midnight in Oakland, California, midnight their time, shots
28:04
Speaker 1: were fired at a police administration building. They said at
28:08
Speaker 1: twelve or nine am. Shots were fired at the Oakland building,
28:11
Speaker 1: located at four fifty five seven Street. No injuries reported.
28:13
Speaker 1: Three people have been detained in connection with the shooting.
28:17
Speaker 1: MVU sent us all a video of them looting in
28:20
Speaker 1: Soho in New York City. Yeah, they were going into
28:23
Speaker 1: the Rolex store, the Chanelle store, Bloomingdale's even got looted, Gucci,
28:28
Speaker 1: Best Buy, everything got looted, you seemed like in New
28:31
Speaker 1: York City. All right, Around four thousand people have been
28:34
Speaker 1: arrested in the United States since George Floyd's death, We're
28:37
Speaker 1: still waiting for three more people to be arrested. By
28:39
Speaker 1: the way, they should have been the first ones in
28:41
Speaker 1: addition to Shavin. But there those people have been arrested
28:44
Speaker 1: because of the nationwide protests that had been happening. The
28:48
Speaker 1: first arrest began on Tuesday, May twenty six, which was
28:50
Speaker 1: the day after George Floyd was murdered, and YPD officers,
28:55
Speaker 1: some of them did take a knee with protesters in
28:57
Speaker 1: Jamaica Queens. You can see video of them kneeling and uh,
29:02
Speaker 1: people were surprised when the officers went ahead and nailed
29:04
Speaker 1: with them. So there are places where police officers are
29:08
Speaker 1: joining in the protests. And some of the protests in
29:11
Speaker 1: certain states and certain cities have been peaceful. I know
29:15
Speaker 1: in Newark, New Jersey, with Mayor Rose Baracca, they actually
29:18
Speaker 1: had a very organized marching solidarity with each other, so
29:24
Speaker 1: and Ross Barroca was out there too. The mayor was
29:26
Speaker 1: actually out there walking and kneeling with the people. So
29:29
Speaker 1: it's a lot different. Hey, question, why is it so
29:32
Speaker 1: easy to break into these expensive ask stores? I would
29:36
Speaker 1: think that it would be a little bit. Why is
29:37
Speaker 1: it so easy, like I would think it would be
29:39
Speaker 1: a little bit harder to break into like the Rolette store.
29:41
Speaker 1: And I mean, if you think about it, when you
29:43
Speaker 1: got hundreds of people breaking into a store, it's not
29:46
Speaker 1: not much any anybody can do. I mean, you can
29:49
Speaker 1: stop right. They don't care if you're caught on camera.
29:51
Speaker 1: They don't care. No, I mean, all that stuff is
29:56
Speaker 1: being able to be broken, the gates of being able
29:58
Speaker 1: to be ripped apart. Like when people want to get in,
30:00
Speaker 1: they can get in, and you know, usually there's a
30:02
Speaker 1: camera to deter people, or you know, it's usually one
30:05
Speaker 1: or two people that you can deter. But when you
30:06
Speaker 1: got fifty to one hundred people, it's nothing you can do,
30:10
Speaker 1: and they don't care one about my police officers don't
30:13
Speaker 1: post up in front of those like expensive as stores
30:16
Speaker 1: more than they do other places. Well, you gotta think
30:18
Speaker 1: I would think that at the time like this, there'd
30:20
Speaker 1: be more police presidents. People are protesting all over all
30:22
Speaker 1: over the city, so cops can't get street and being
30:26
Speaker 1: Brooklyn and being soho and being Hall on the you know,
30:29
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's spread in and then if you
30:31
Speaker 1: one cop and it's one hundred people coming in to
30:33
Speaker 1: getting that stone. What are you that one cop gonna do? Well?
30:37
Speaker 1: I will say, man, just watching all across America, those
30:39
Speaker 1: looters really do have good taste, like all the things
30:41
Speaker 1: this country has put value on. They went there first,
30:44
Speaker 1: Louis Gucci, Rolex, Alexander McQueen Chanel, all the places I
30:49
Speaker 1: can't pronounce, get some of them luxuries. All right, well
30:53
Speaker 1: that is your front page news. All right, thank you,
30:55
Speaker 1: miss ye. Now when we come back with open them
30:57
Speaker 1: to the phone line. So we're talking to this morning.
31:00
Speaker 1: I want to talk, man to some of the white protesters,
31:03
Speaker 1: the white folks that's out there fighting alongside black folks. Uh.
31:06
Speaker 1: You know, surprisingly, your uncle Charlotte believes in you. Okay.
31:10
Speaker 1: I know that some of y'all are being painted as agents,
31:13
Speaker 1: and I totally understand why black folks are skeptical of
31:15
Speaker 1: white people being out there fighting alongside us. We have
31:18
Speaker 1: no reason to trust, Okay. But but I'm and I'm
31:21
Speaker 1: sure that there's some cointell pro involved some of these
31:24
Speaker 1: in some of these protests. But I also believe there's
31:26
Speaker 1: white people tied to seeing black folks get killed in
31:28
Speaker 1: these screens for no reason. And I know it's white
31:30
Speaker 1: folks out there that are fed up with this country
31:32
Speaker 1: and are fighting against the fascist regime. And I just
31:34
Speaker 1: want to hear from y'all white like, white folks. I
31:36
Speaker 1: want to know what are your reasons for being involved
31:38
Speaker 1: right now? I really do. I want to talk directly
31:40
Speaker 1: to the white people that are out there raising hell.
31:44
Speaker 1: All right, well, let's let's get on the phone lines now.
31:46
Speaker 1: Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. It's
31:49

32:12
Speaker 1: join it to the discussion with the Breakfast Club, talk
32:15
Speaker 1: about it morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlemagne
32:20
Speaker 1: the guy we are the Breakfast Club, Good morning now
32:23
Speaker 1: if he just joined us. We've been talking about the
32:26
Speaker 1: protesters because of George Floyd's death, or I should say
32:30
Speaker 1: George Floyd's murder, and Charlota may want to hear this
32:33
Speaker 1: talk to some white people this morning, yeah, because I
32:35
Speaker 1: mean I've just been noticing, man, you know, it's been
32:37
Speaker 1: so many uh you know, white people are fighting side
32:40
Speaker 1: by side with black folks, and it's just like, Yo,
32:43
Speaker 1: I want to talk to you because you know, ironically,
32:46
Speaker 1: I don't say ironically, that's not the word. Surprisingly. I
32:48
Speaker 1: believe in you, Okay, I know some of it, y'all.
32:51
Speaker 1: I know some of y'all are you know, being painted
32:53
Speaker 1: as agents, and I'm sure that it is from Cointell
32:55
Speaker 1: pro involved in some of these protests. I totally understand
32:58
Speaker 1: why people are skeptical of white folks fighting with black people,
33:01
Speaker 1: but I also believe that it's just white people tired
33:03
Speaker 1: of seeing black folks get killed in these streets for
33:05
Speaker 1: no reason. And you know that meme, that meme that
33:08
Speaker 1: says I wish they love black people the way they
33:10
Speaker 1: love black culture. It hits different at a time like this.
33:13
Speaker 1: So I know it's some white folks out there that
33:14
Speaker 1: are just fed up with this country and they fed
33:17
Speaker 1: up with the treatment of black people. They're fed up
33:19
Speaker 1: with this fascist regime. They they're they're unemployed, you know
33:22
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. They don't know when they're going back
33:24
Speaker 1: to work. So I think it's a lot of reasons
33:26
Speaker 1: for white folks to be out there protesting, But I
33:28
Speaker 1: just I just want to know why a lot of
33:30
Speaker 1: white folks are choosing to be involved right now. That's it,
33:33
Speaker 1: all right, Well, let's go to the phone line. Hello,
33:35
Speaker 1: who's this? That's Steve. Steve, what are you calling from?
33:38
Speaker 1: Calling from? Dat? No? How dat Ohio? Yes? I am white,
33:43
Speaker 1: and I just think, you know, I totally agree with
33:46
Speaker 1: all of may And you know, we're all all sick
33:48
Speaker 1: of this, you know, I don't think in my mind
33:51
Speaker 1: there is no race. We're all you know, You're noted
33:53
Speaker 1: is one, you know. And I'm just sick and tired
33:56
Speaker 1: of all this drama, you know. I mean that man
33:58
Speaker 1: didn't deserve that, you know. And I can't even walk
34:01
Speaker 1: around with my African American you know, brother in all
34:04
Speaker 1: without him feeling some type of way or or you know, feeling,
34:08
Speaker 1: you know, stressed out because you know, a police officer
34:11
Speaker 1: drives by, and I don't think that's right. You know,
34:14
Speaker 1: I protesting a different matter, you know, I just think
34:18
Speaker 1: it's you know, it's all bs. You know. I can't
34:19
Speaker 1: even speak right now because I'm so hurt over the
34:21
Speaker 1: whole situation, you know. I mean, I understand we should protest,
34:25
Speaker 1: but you know, destroying our property, I'm not agreeing with that, part.
34:29
Speaker 1: But I mean as far as Charlomagne said, yeah, we're
34:32
Speaker 1: all sick of it, you know. And you have a
34:35
Speaker 1: black brother in law, Yes, sir, I do. I mean
34:38
Speaker 1: like that means you got a black wife? Yes? Oh wow?
34:41
Speaker 1: So you you you so you got a bird's eye
34:43
Speaker 1: view of a black experience. Yes, sir, I mean for
34:46
Speaker 1: the last twenty years, I've been experiencing all of this,
34:48
Speaker 1: and you know, I just I'm just ashamed, man, I'm
34:52
Speaker 1: just ashamed that you know about the actions they chose
34:54
Speaker 1: to make, you know, and you know, I just I'm
34:57
Speaker 1: just not half a brother. I really ain't. Well. Thank
35:00
Speaker 1: you for calling, brother, believe you. Hello, who's this yo?
35:03
Speaker 1: It's up, David. What's your name? David? Hey, David Comona man,
35:09
Speaker 1: good mon. Yeah. Yeah, I'm from Austin, Texas. So I'm sorry.
35:13
Speaker 1: It's just a long weekend. It was crazy. We had
35:16
Speaker 1: we had tear gays stoning at us. We were a
35:18
Speaker 1: shot whichever bullet too is ridiculous. Why are you out
35:22
Speaker 1: there fighting, young man? Tell us what's showing up as
35:25
Speaker 1: a white man. I'm from a small town from Mississippi,
35:28
Speaker 1: so I know back home, I got like one hundred
35:31
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty people who can't go out to
35:33
Speaker 1: a big town. You can't go out to the protests,
35:35
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna be the voice of the people back
35:37
Speaker 1: at home. Okay, all right, what's the cause you fight?
35:41
Speaker 1: To point out? Though? One thing I do want to
35:42
Speaker 1: point out though, that I noticed last night they burnt
35:46
Speaker 1: the tent and the mattress of a homeless man. They're
35:50
Speaker 1: trying to give the peaceful protests a bad name. Well yeah,
35:53
Speaker 1: and that's what I said. I do know it's probably
35:55
Speaker 1: some cointell pro out there's probably some disruptors out there,
35:58
Speaker 1: but I do feel like it's more white people were
36:00
Speaker 1: out there for the right reasons, like yourself, you know,
36:03
Speaker 1: simply because you know, you're tired of seeing black people
36:05
Speaker 1: get killed in this country. Definitely, it was there was
36:08
Speaker 1: no need for all that type of violence out there.
36:10
Speaker 1: There were people sitting there on their knees, hands up,
36:13
Speaker 1: and they were still shooting tear gas and brother bullets
36:16
Speaker 1: app and there's just no need for this violence. Well,
36:18
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you for your service. Young Caucasian eight
36:22
Speaker 1: hundred one oh five one hit us up. Now we're
36:27
Speaker 1: asking to talk to some of the white people. That's
36:28
Speaker 1: in the fight with us. All right, that's out there protesting,
36:31
Speaker 1: that's out there protecting, that's out there telling everybody how
36:34
Speaker 1: they feel. Call us up now, it's the Breakfast Club.
36:36
Speaker 1: Good morning, call me and your opinions to the Breakfast
36:48
Speaker 1: Club tops. Come on eight hundred five five five one morning.
36:54
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne the god we
36:58
Speaker 1: all the Breakfast Club. Good morning now if you just
37:01
Speaker 1: joined us, Charlemagne has been trying to highlight our white
37:05
Speaker 1: allies this morning. That's it, man, you know what I mean.
37:08
Speaker 1: I want to talk to some of the white protesters,
37:09
Speaker 1: the people that we see out there, you know, fighting
37:12
Speaker 1: alongside black folks. I believe in you, especially use skateboarders.
37:15
Speaker 1: I didn't know you white skateboarders were so goddamn gangster, okay.
37:18
Speaker 1: And I know that a lot of people are painting
37:21
Speaker 1: the white folks as agents that are fighting alongside black people.
37:24
Speaker 1: And I have a theory about that. I think it's
37:26
Speaker 1: the white supremacists worst nightmare to have white people out
37:30
Speaker 1: there actually fighting with black people. That's why they keep
37:33
Speaker 1: pushing this narrative that these white folks are being paid
37:35
Speaker 1: to do this and their agents. I'm sure it's some
37:38
Speaker 1: cointell pro out there. I'm sure some people out there
37:40
Speaker 1: just that want of disrupt things. But for the most part,
37:42
Speaker 1: I think that it's black people and white people fighting
37:45
Speaker 1: alongside each other because these white people really love black folks.
37:49
Speaker 1: That mean that said, I wish you love black people
37:51
Speaker 1: the way you love Black culture. That gotta hit different
37:54
Speaker 1: at a time like this, when all your heroes are black,
37:57
Speaker 1: when your favorite athletes are black, when your favorite musicians
37:59
Speaker 1: are black, when the way you dresses is black culture,
38:03
Speaker 1: the way you even talk is black culture, that men
38:06
Speaker 1: gotta hit different. So salute all the white folks out
38:08
Speaker 1: there on the front lines with us, But let's go
38:10
Speaker 1: to the full lines. Hello, who's this, Lindsay? Lindsay? Are
38:13
Speaker 1: you white? Are you clear? Bay? Black? Lindsay? Morning, good morning.
38:21
Speaker 1: I can smell the star books on. I can smell
38:23
Speaker 1: the star books on our breakfast morning. Hi. Hi, Now
38:27
Speaker 1: why are you out there? Uh this weekend? Um? Well,
38:31
Speaker 1: I'm not part of the protesters, but I do agree
38:34
Speaker 1: that black lives matter. UM, I have many black friends.
38:37
Speaker 1: I think black people are wonderful. I think most of
38:40
Speaker 1: them are better than white people. Um, they truly have
38:43
Speaker 1: good hearts, and I'm tired of seeing what's happening to them.
38:46
Speaker 1: You know, these police officers out there just you know,
38:49
Speaker 1: taking that upon themselves to judge them and stereotype, and
38:54
Speaker 1: you know, it's got to stop. Um. But what I
38:57
Speaker 1: don't agree with is the writing and the looting. Those
39:02
Speaker 1: people are putting a bad name on themselves as well
39:05
Speaker 1: as black people because they're destroying public property. And you know,
39:11
Speaker 1: I mean, what would George Floyd want. He wouldn't want that.
39:15
Speaker 1: He wouldn't want people out there destroying things and you know,
39:19
Speaker 1: harming other people and people being scared to go out.
39:21
Speaker 1: He would want them to stick up for his name,
39:23
Speaker 1: but not in that way. I mean, I listen, I
39:25
Speaker 1: don't know what George Floy would want because he's not
39:27
Speaker 1: here to tell us what he would want because he
39:28
Speaker 1: got killed by god damn racist ass coot. But I mean, listen,
39:31
Speaker 1: nobody wants to see the looting, nobody wants to see
39:34
Speaker 1: the burning down the buildings. But we kind of gotta
39:37
Speaker 1: understand the outrage though we can understand where a mayhem
39:41
Speaker 1: is coming from. Understand I completely understand that. And you know,
39:46
Speaker 1: I mean, if they want to you know, go burn
39:49
Speaker 1: cop cars. That's fine, But I mean that poor black
39:52
Speaker 1: man with his business and then you know, burning his
39:56
Speaker 1: business down. He didn't do anything. I mean, he's one
39:59
Speaker 1: of them, you know. I mean, don't hurt your own kind.
40:03
Speaker 1: You know, I didn't target the right If you're gonna
40:05
Speaker 1: target something, This is coming from a white woman, y'all.
40:06
Speaker 1: If you're gonna target something, target the right things. Yeah.
40:09
Speaker 1: And speaking of target, I mean they had to adjust
40:11
Speaker 1: their hours and close their stores. But they did say
40:14
Speaker 1: that they stand with us, so that the CEO released
40:18
Speaker 1: a statement in support of the protest against police abuse
40:21
Speaker 1: against African Americans. Well, thank you, Lindsay, Thank you, Lindsay.
40:24
Speaker 1: Let's go to another line. Hello, who's this this? Candice? Hey, Candice,
40:29
Speaker 1: what are you calling from. I'm from Done South Carolina, Carolina. Okay,
40:34
Speaker 1: I no, I did with them once. I ain't even
40:35
Speaker 1: gonna front. I thought it might have been something no white, Yeah,
40:39
Speaker 1: I am. Okay. Let's talk. What reasons do you have
40:42
Speaker 1: for being involved? First of all, I have three mixed children.
40:45
Speaker 1: I have a year old son that I'm scared to
40:48
Speaker 1: grow up. He's at the age now where he's starting
40:51
Speaker 1: to find a self. So he's starting to go out
40:52
Speaker 1: with his friends and you know, right around and all that,
40:55
Speaker 1: and I'm scared for him to leave. And it really
40:58
Speaker 1: makes me mad that every time of the season hashtag
41:01
Speaker 1: black lives matter, they want to change it to all
41:03
Speaker 1: lives matter, which all lives do matter, but right now,
41:05
Speaker 1: so this situation, it is black lives matter, because until
41:09
Speaker 1: white people are scared to go outside or scared to
41:12
Speaker 1: cause the police for anything because they don't know how
41:14
Speaker 1: they're going to act, then white people don't understand how
41:17
Speaker 1: it feels. I understand how they feel because I'm in
41:19
Speaker 1: that community, you know what I'm saying. I am more
41:22
Speaker 1: around black people than I am white people, So I
41:24
Speaker 1: understand how they feel. And I'm scared for my son
41:26
Speaker 1: to grow up. I'm scared for him to be in
41:28
Speaker 1: a store that's predominantly white and they're looking at him
41:32
Speaker 1: suspicious and he's not doing anything wrong. Where you outside,
41:36
Speaker 1: where you outside the protests, I actually didn't get to
41:39
Speaker 1: make it. I work two jobs, so I wasn't out
41:43
Speaker 1: there physically with them, but my heart is with them.
41:46
Speaker 1: My heart is really with them, because it's it's ridiculous
41:49
Speaker 1: that we've let it get this far. Absolutely like it
41:54
Speaker 1: could have changed so easily if everybody would just come together.
41:57
Speaker 1: It's just it's sad that it takes a killing to
42:00
Speaker 1: make people want to protest, like we should protest peace
42:03
Speaker 1: all year round anyway, until this stops and the police
42:06
Speaker 1: officers need to be held accountable just like we would absolutely. Well,
42:10
Speaker 1: thank you for calling, and thank you for riding with us, Mama,
42:12
Speaker 1: We appreciate it. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five.
42:15
Speaker 1: One is the moral to the story? Yeah, the moral
42:17
Speaker 1: of the story is man for all the white people
42:19
Speaker 1: out there fighting alongside black folks, salute to y'all. We
42:22
Speaker 1: appreciate your service, you know what I mean. Drop on
42:24
Speaker 1: the clues bombs for the white folks out there fighting
42:26
Speaker 1: with black people. I appreciate you. I want you to
42:30
Speaker 1: continue to use your privilege to combat prejudice. You know,
42:32
Speaker 1: don't just love our music, don't just love our culture,
42:35
Speaker 1: love us. And right now, what's happening. This is a
42:38
Speaker 1: white supremacist worst nightmare. And I promise you they're going
42:40
Speaker 1: to keep the narrative going that you know these people
42:42
Speaker 1: are being paid, are you know their agents? And listen,
42:46
Speaker 1: some of them probably are just like some of the
42:48
Speaker 1: black folks probably are, but for the most part, I
42:50
Speaker 1: think it's people out there that are really just fed
42:52
Speaker 1: up with what's happening to black people in this country.
42:56
Speaker 1: So salute to you Caucajuns. I'm gonna come up for
42:58
Speaker 1: a name with y'all because we need the opposite of
43:00
Speaker 1: Vanilla isis Vanilla isis is mestic terrorists, the white supremacist.
43:04
Speaker 1: We need to We need a name for the the
43:07
Speaker 1: good white folks. Think of one. All right, Now, we
43:10
Speaker 1: got rumors on the way. Yes, let's talk about Atlanta

45:10
Speaker 1: I have a new respectful skateboarder. Skateboarders to me are
45:13
Speaker 1: like the new biker gangs. But the skateboarders are on
45:16
Speaker 1: our side. The biker gangs are usually on the other
45:18
Speaker 1: side and either side of the white supremacists, you know
45:20
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. But the skateboarders seem like they're on
45:23
Speaker 1: our side. So salute to them. I respect y'all. Gangster,
45:27
Speaker 1: that's what they do though. Their whole life. Their whole
45:29
Speaker 1: life is rebelling against copy right, breaking bones for living.
45:32
Speaker 1: They tough in a real way. You're right. You know.
45:35
Speaker 1: The crazy thing is, you know in New York, New Jersey.
45:37
Speaker 1: Out here, you're not allowed to carry a firearm. It's
45:40
Speaker 1: just not allowed. You cannot have it. You can have
45:41
Speaker 1: it in your house. It's very hard to get a
45:43
Speaker 1: firearm to carry outside, right, So most people have like
45:46
Speaker 1: a little baseball bat or a club. Back in the day,
45:49
Speaker 1: they would have that in their trunk with their back
45:50
Speaker 1: seat just in case of an altercation. But I'm gonna

Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. All right, we got rumors all the way, yes,
46:06
Speaker 1: and keep you updated on the protesters. Also, we'll tell
46:09
Speaker 1: you some of the celebrities who were out and about protesting.
46:12
Speaker 1: And we'll talk about Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottom. She
46:15
Speaker 1: was joined by Killer Mike and Ti and we'll tell
46:17
Speaker 1: you what was said. All right, we'll get into that
46:19
Speaker 1: when we come back. Keep a lock. This to Breakfast club.
46:21
Speaker 1: Good morning. Tell we all the breakfast club. Let's get
46:25
Speaker 1: to the rumors. Let's talk Killer Mike. It's about Angela
46:35
Speaker 1: Ye fund the breakfast club. Yes, Keiler, Mike and Ti
46:40
Speaker 1: joined Atlanta Mayor Kesha Lance Bottoms and they were talking
46:44
Speaker 1: about basically the rioting that was happening in Atlanta. Now
46:48
Speaker 1: here is what Killer Mike hat to say. If it
46:50
Speaker 1: is your duty not to burn your own house down
46:55
Speaker 1: for anger with an enemy. It is your duty to
46:58
Speaker 1: fortify your own house so that you may be a
47:01
Speaker 1: house of refuge in times of organization. And now it's
47:05
Speaker 1: the time to plot, plan, strategize, organize, and mobilize. It
47:14
Speaker 1: is time to beat up prosecutors you don't like it
47:17
Speaker 1: the voting booth. It is time to hold mayorial offices accountable.
47:21
Speaker 1: Chiefs and deputy chiefs. Telling you right now, if aliens
47:24
Speaker 1: came down to day and told me, take you, take
47:27
Speaker 1: take me to your leader, I'm taking them to kill them.
47:29
Speaker 1: Mike that is absolutely one of the leaders. I'm taking
47:31
Speaker 1: them to drop on a clues box and kill the
47:32
Speaker 1: Mike love that. Keisha lance Bottom is also telling people
47:36
Speaker 1: that if you were outside protesting, make sure you go
47:38
Speaker 1: get a coronavirus testau I did think about that. Did
47:44
Speaker 1: we just forget about pandemic because nobody's wearing masks? Like,
47:49
Speaker 1: do we just it's coronavirus? Just we just forget it?
47:52
Speaker 1: Racism and police brutality are the kills for coronaviruses? Who knew? All? Right? Now?
47:57
Speaker 1: Jaycole was outside and he was marching approach testers in
48:00
Speaker 1: his hometown of Fayetteville, North Carolina. He wasn't taking pictures
48:04
Speaker 1: or anything like that, not doing interviews. He didn't want
48:06
Speaker 1: to distract from the moment, but it was exciting for
48:09
Speaker 1: people to see that j Cole was out there. And
48:11
Speaker 1: that's not the first time he's done something like this.
48:13
Speaker 1: He also attended protests after the killings of Michael Brown
48:16
Speaker 1: and Eric Garner in fourteen, and he was spotted at
48:19
Speaker 1: a rally in DC organized by Farrakahn commemorating the twentieth
48:23
Speaker 1: anniversary of the Million Man mart So he does the
48:26
Speaker 1: work also while hit the streets with protesters in LA
48:29
Speaker 1: as well, and Insecure Star Kendrick Sampson he was out
48:33
Speaker 1: as well, and he said he did get injured by
48:35
Speaker 1: Rubbert bullets while he was out protesting all right. In addition,
48:41
Speaker 1: in addition to all of this, Doctor Dre was on
48:43
Speaker 1: Young Money Radio and here's what he told Little Wayne
48:47
Speaker 1: about the murder of George Floyd. My heart is steell
48:50
Speaker 1: aching and it feels like that cop had his knee
48:53
Speaker 1: on all of our necks, meaning black men, and it's like,
48:57
Speaker 1: what can we do? But what do we need to
48:59
Speaker 1: do to make this thing stop? Did you hear that
49:02
Speaker 1: the cop was arrested today. Yeah, I heard that, But
49:04
Speaker 1: that's not enough at all, not enough. You know, the
49:07
Speaker 1: other three cops are supposed to be arrested, they're supposed
49:09
Speaker 1: to be convicted, and they're supposed to be arrested and
49:13
Speaker 1: convicted the first degree murder, all right, And that's rare
49:16
Speaker 1: for dtor J to even do an interview. So just
49:19
Speaker 1: I do think it is important to hear people speaking up.
49:22
Speaker 1: It is inspiring. And CNN's Don Lemon he has called
49:26
Speaker 1: out a bunch of different celebrities for their lack of
49:28
Speaker 1: visibility during protests. Here's what Don Lemon had to say.
49:31
Speaker 1: What about Hollywood strangely quiet? I see them on Twitter,
49:36
Speaker 1: I see them all. You know, I'm loving what Don
49:39
Speaker 1: Lemon is doing. I'm loving what this person So why
49:41
Speaker 1: are I don't But they got to do more than that,
49:44
Speaker 1: especially black celebrities and black leaders and white celebrities and
49:49
Speaker 1: rich Hollywood and rich folks. Why aren't they helping these
49:53
Speaker 1: young people get on television or do something? You know,
49:57
Speaker 1: I was home on Friday night, Saturday and n I
50:00
Speaker 1: think it was sad. I don't remember what night it was,
50:01
Speaker 1: but I was home and I was actually watching that live,
50:03
Speaker 1: and I would like to say that Don Lemon sounded crazy, okay,
50:07
Speaker 1: because first of all, you don't know I was watching
50:10
Speaker 1: that too, you don't know what I was watching that too.
50:12
Speaker 1: And he was like, it just sounded mad, erie because
50:14
Speaker 1: it didn't show him, It was just showing the protests,
50:17
Speaker 1: and he tried to sound so mad. He was vamping
50:20
Speaker 1: like he was actually literally trying to kill time, and
50:22
Speaker 1: they was playing b role and they probably was just
50:25
Speaker 1: telling them to talk. Just sounded crazy exactly because first
50:28
Speaker 1: of all, you don't you don't know what folks are doing.
50:31
Speaker 1: And when you call the folks out, ask ask yourself,
50:33
Speaker 1: what are you doing? Don saying that from the comfort
50:35
Speaker 1: of his TV show. If you're gonna call folks out
50:37
Speaker 1: like that, you go on the front lines. I have
50:39
Speaker 1: mentioned why do we care? What? Why do we care
50:42
Speaker 1: what celebrities are doing? America's obsession, which celebrity is exactly
50:45
Speaker 1: why we have a reality star as president. What you're
50:47
Speaker 1: calling out Hollywood for I call out the politicians, the
50:50
Speaker 1: elected officials. Not no damn Hollywood. Who cared what Ellen
50:52
Speaker 1: and Oprah got to say at a time like this,
50:55
Speaker 1: And you know, and and like you said, earlier. We
50:59
Speaker 1: don't know what people are doing. You don't know if
51:00
Speaker 1: people are more Okay, I'm just gonna handle my business
51:03
Speaker 1: behind the scenes and not make it public what it
51:07
Speaker 1: is that I am. Or they might be plotting in
51:09
Speaker 1: doing something right now that we don't even know about.
51:11
Speaker 1: That we'll find out about later. But you know, I
51:13
Speaker 1: can't call it that. But that's the least of my
51:16
Speaker 1: concerns right now. Yes, and Don Lemon called out people
51:19
Speaker 1: that are doing the work, like Colin Kaepernick already was
51:21
Speaker 1: establishing a fund to bail protesters out. You see him
51:25
Speaker 1: the governor. The governor yesterday said he was on the
51:27
Speaker 1: phone with jay Z. You know what I mean. And
51:29
Speaker 1: now Keith Ellison is on the case, like you don't
51:31
Speaker 1: know what people are doing behind the scenes for you
51:33
Speaker 1: to be calling folks out. But once again, if you're
51:36
Speaker 1: gonna call people out, make sure you on the front
51:38
Speaker 1: lines and not from the not doing that from the
51:40
Speaker 1: comfort of your TV show, Don Lemmon, come on now well.
51:43
Speaker 1: Jay Z also released a statement after our very earnest conversation,
51:47
Speaker 1: thank you to Governor Wallas for doing what's right and
51:49
Speaker 1: calling in Attorney General Keith Ellison to take over the
51:52
Speaker 1: George Floyd case. Earlier today, Governor Wallas mentioned having a
51:55
Speaker 1: human conversation with me, a dad and a black man
51:58
Speaker 1: in pain. Yes, I am human, father and a black
52:00
Speaker 1: man in pain, and I am not the only one. Now, I,
52:04
Speaker 1: along with an entire country in pain, call upon A
52:07
Speaker 1: g Ellison to do the right thing and prosecute all
52:10
Speaker 1: those responsible for the murder of George Floyd to the
52:13
Speaker 1: fullest extent of the law. This is just a first step.
52:16
Speaker 1: I am more determined to fight for justice than any
52:18
Speaker 1: fight my would be a pressures may have I prevail
52:21
Speaker 1: on every politician, prosecutor, and officer in the country to
52:24
Speaker 1: have the courage to do what is right. Dropping the
52:27
Speaker 1: clues bons behold man, you know what those one other
52:31
Speaker 1: thing Don Limit did. He called folks out and told
52:33
Speaker 1: them to stop tweeting, you know, stop just being on
52:36
Speaker 1: social media and told him her speak. But then he
52:38
Speaker 1: gave Beyonce a credit speaking on social media. Don was
52:43
Speaker 1: just talking. He was just talking. It was like, you
52:45
Speaker 1: got this expo is like I'm just gonna talk exactly,
52:48
Speaker 1: just vamping. All right. Well I'm Angela Yee and that
52:52
Speaker 1: is your rumor report. All right, thank you, Miss yee.
52:56
Speaker 1: Now when we come back Donkey today, who are you
52:58
Speaker 1: giving that donkey too? Donkey today is going to Mayor
53:01
Speaker 1: Build de Blasio. He really needs to come to the
53:03
Speaker 1: front of the congregation because he does not know how
53:06
Speaker 1: to de escalate a situation. We'll talk about it, all right,
53:09
Speaker 1: We'll get into that next keeping lot. This to breakfast club.
53:11
Speaker 1: Good morning. Let's don't be a dusty because right now
53:13
Speaker 1: you want it's time for Donkey of the day. So
53:18
Speaker 1: if we ever feel I need to be a dunk
53:20
Speaker 1: man the head sheet I had become Donkey of the day.
53:28
Speaker 1: The Breakfast Club bitches. Donkey today from Monday, June first
53:33
Speaker 1: goes to New York City Mayor Build de Blasio. Now,
53:36
Speaker 1: I saw a lot of things that disturbed my soul
53:38
Speaker 1: this weekend. I saw a lot of things that gave
53:41
Speaker 1: me panic attacks. I saw a lot of things that
53:43
Speaker 1: kept me from sleeping at night. But there was one
53:46
Speaker 1: video that disturbed me a lot, disturbed me a lot
53:49
Speaker 1: more than the others I saw. And I'm sure you
53:51
Speaker 1: saw the video of a pair of NYPD SUVs driving
53:55
Speaker 1: into a crowd during one of this weekend's protested George
54:00
Speaker 1: Floyd's death. I think this was in Brooklyn. If I'm
54:02
Speaker 1: not mistaken, Let's let's say the report we took a
54:05
Speaker 1: dramatic turn. By night. There reports of demonstrations happening all
54:09
Speaker 1: over the city, but the bulk of the activity was
54:11
Speaker 1: here in Brooklyn as well as Manhattan, at one point
54:15
Speaker 1: shutting down the Manhattan Bridge. A video has also surf
54:19
Speaker 1: is showing two NYPD vehicles pushing into a crowd of demonstrators,
54:24
Speaker 1: and officials are saying that those vehicles were being struck
54:26
Speaker 1: by rocks as well as other objects. Thankfully, nobody was
54:30
Speaker 1: seriously hurt. But when I showed my wife that video,
54:33
Speaker 1: like she literally cried, and it baffles my mind. At
54:36
Speaker 1: a time like this, police officers wouldn't be doing everything
54:40
Speaker 1: in their power to improve relationships with the people, Like
54:44
Speaker 1: now was not the time. The show is that you
54:46
Speaker 1: really don't give a damn, Like you know, I don't
54:49
Speaker 1: even know why police officers still have decreed the protecting
54:53
Speaker 1: to serve. Salute to all the good cops out there,
54:56
Speaker 1: But I don't see how you can be a good
54:58
Speaker 1: cop in a corrupt system. I would really like to know, seriously,
55:02
Speaker 1: and let me explain. It's simple, right, They always say,
55:04
Speaker 1: one bad apple spoils a bunch. We've always heard that expression.
55:08
Speaker 1: Well have you ever heard the opposite? Can I take
55:11
Speaker 1: a good apple, put it in a bunch of rotten
55:13
Speaker 1: apples and make those rotten apples turn good? I've never
55:17
Speaker 1: seen it. If it's possible, I'll shut the f up
55:19
Speaker 1: forever on this topic. But I don't think I'm wrong. See,
55:22
Speaker 1: the system is so corrupt and as the great AOC
55:25
Speaker 1: said Alexandria Carte. She tweeted this last week in regards
55:28
Speaker 1: to the killing of George Floyd. She said, I'll just
55:31
Speaker 1: say it, a lot of politicians are scared of the
55:35
Speaker 1: political power of the police, and that's why charges to
55:38
Speaker 1: hold them accountable for flagrant killings don't happen. That in
55:42
Speaker 1: itself is a scary problem. We shouldn't be intimidated out
55:45
Speaker 1: of holding people accountable for murder. AOC is absolutely right,
55:50
Speaker 1: but politicians shouldn't be scared to hold police accountable for anything.
55:53
Speaker 1: But that is exactly what mad Bill Deblasio did this
55:56
Speaker 1: past weekend when he failed to hold those officers accountable
55:59
Speaker 1: for drying through that crowd. Listen to what may build
56:02
Speaker 1: the Bladio had to say in regard to that situation,
56:05
Speaker 1: I saw some moments yesterday that were disturbing in terms
56:08
Speaker 1: of the way police handled things, and that need to
56:10
Speaker 1: be done better. We many of us have seen the
56:13
Speaker 1: video involving two NYPD vehicles and a crowd of protesters.
56:17
Speaker 1: I didn't like what I saw one bit, and clearly
56:20
Speaker 1: we need to do a full investigation and look at
56:23
Speaker 1: the actions of those officers and see what was done
56:26
Speaker 1: and why it was done, and what could be done differently.
56:28
Speaker 1: But I also want to emphasize that situation was created
56:32
Speaker 1: by a group of protesters blocking and surrounding a police vehicle,
56:36
Speaker 1: a tactic that we had seen before in the last
56:38
Speaker 1: few days, a tactic that can be very, very dangerous
56:41
Speaker 1: to everyone involved. And we've seen direct attacks on police officers,
56:45
Speaker 1: including in their vehicles, and we need a full and
56:48
Speaker 1: impartial investigation. But we also need to be clear about
56:51
Speaker 1: the context, and that was a situation that had to
56:53
Speaker 1: be resolved. It could not stay that way. But we
56:56
Speaker 1: need to understand more about it, and if there's discipline
56:58
Speaker 1: that needs to be meeted out will be Mayor Bill
57:01
Speaker 1: de Blasio is shook to death of police leaders and
57:05
Speaker 1: unions they own him. Do you remember when Edward D.
57:08
Speaker 1: Mullen is the president of the Sergeant's Benevolent Association, tweeted
57:12
Speaker 1: in February that members of the NYPD were declaring war
57:15
Speaker 1: on the BLASIL, and last August the union declared it
57:19
Speaker 1: had no confidence in the BLASIL. And my girl AOC
57:23
Speaker 1: once again. You know, she came through with some truth.
57:25
Speaker 1: You know, because after the Blasio said what he said,
57:27
Speaker 1: AOC replied on Twitter that he was making excuses for
57:32
Speaker 1: the NYPD. AOC tweeted, as Mayor, this police department is
57:35
Speaker 1: under your leadership. This moment demands leadership and accountability from
57:40
Speaker 1: each of us. Defending and making excuses for NYPD running
57:44
Speaker 1: SUVs into crowds was wrong. Make it right, de escalate
57:49
Speaker 1: de Blasio. You just made folks hate cops and hate
57:52
Speaker 1: the system even more. Those cops who did that should
57:55
Speaker 1: have been fired or at the least suspended. Okay something,
57:58
Speaker 1: don't make it seem like that was okay. Meanwhile, this
58:01
Speaker 1: is why we are at the point in our society
58:04
Speaker 1: we should just shut the f up and let black
58:07
Speaker 1: women lead, all right. Keisha Land's Bottoms, Mayor of Atlanta.
58:10
Speaker 1: This weekend, right this weekend, two Atlanta police officers. I
58:14
Speaker 1: know you probably saw this video. Two Atlanta police officers
58:17
Speaker 1: were captured on video forcibly pulling a pair of college
58:21
Speaker 1: students out of their car, hazing them, placing them under
58:24
Speaker 1: arrest during protest. These kids were doing nothing. Guess what
58:27
Speaker 1: happened to those two police officers. They got fired straight
58:31
Speaker 1: like that. Mayor Bottoms gave U speech about it. Let's
58:33
Speaker 1: hear it, Chief Shield and I who made the determination
58:37
Speaker 1: that two of the officers involved in the incident last
58:40
Speaker 1: night will be terminated immediately. The other three officers are
58:45
Speaker 1: right now on deckk's duty, pending further determination of what,
58:51
Speaker 1: if any appropriate action disclinary actions should be taken against them.
58:59
Speaker 1: The release of that body can footage and the corres
59:02
Speaker 1: funding police report should be available to the media immediately.
59:07
Speaker 1: Simple cops do something wrong, Cops get fired. That's how
59:12
Speaker 1: you repair relationships between the community and the police. That's
59:15
Speaker 1: how you change your system. Just get rid of the
59:17
Speaker 1: bad apples in that system. Hold cops accountable. That's all
59:21
Speaker 1: we want, and this is why black women make the
59:24
Speaker 1: best leaders. Okay, she took action immediately, something that build
59:28
Speaker 1: de Blasio clearly doesn't have the needs to do. Please
59:32
Speaker 1: let Remy mad give Mayor Bill de Blasio the biggest
59:34
Speaker 1: he ha he ha he haa you stupid mother, Are
59:39
Speaker 1: you dumb? That's also why Kesha Land's Bottoms is being
59:42
Speaker 1: mentioned on the shortlist for being Vice President of the
59:47
Speaker 1: United States of America. That'd be a great position for her,
59:50
Speaker 1: even though with a name like Mayor Bottoms, she's perfect
59:54
Speaker 1: to be the mayor of Atlanta. Stop it all right, Well,
59:56
Speaker 1: thank you for that donkey of the day. Now when
59:59
Speaker 1: we come back, Corey Minor Smith will be joining us
1:00:03
Speaker 1: telling people who she's an attorney. She has a book
1:00:07
Speaker 1: called Driven, and she is a huge mental health advocate, man.
1:00:10
Speaker 1: And I know that right now, especially after the past week,
1:00:14
Speaker 1: especially after this weekend, a lot of us are emotionally drained.
1:00:17
Speaker 1: You know, a lot of us, you know, are just
1:00:19
Speaker 1: trying to keep our keep our mental health in order.
1:00:22
Speaker 1: And I think that is very important. And um, you know,
1:00:25
Speaker 1: she just has a lot of great ideas and a
1:00:26
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of good tips for you to
1:00:29
Speaker 1: keep your your mental health in order. Man. So I
1:00:31
Speaker 1: think that this is a great conversation. The Mental Health
1:00:34
Speaker 1: Awareness Month was last month, but mental health awareness, you know,
1:00:37
Speaker 1: for me is a year round thing. So I think
1:00:39
Speaker 1: a lot of people could actually use her conversation this morning,
1:00:43
Speaker 1: could actually benefit from hearing that conversation this morning. All right,
1:00:47
Speaker 1: we'll get into that next keeping locked this to Breakfast Club.
1:00:49
Speaker 1: Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Voting. Everybody is DJ Envy,
1:00:56
Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
1:01:00
Speaker 1: We got a special guest on the line right now,
1:01:02
Speaker 1: Attorney Corey Minor Smith. She has a new book out
1:01:05
Speaker 1: called Driven. It's a memoir, but it's a self motivational memoir.
1:01:09
Speaker 1: What is it about. Yes, it's called hashtag Driven, and
1:01:12
Speaker 1: it is a motivational memoir. But I use it as
1:01:15
Speaker 1: a resource for families and friends that have a loved
1:01:17
Speaker 1: one living with severe mental illness. A lot of times
1:01:21
Speaker 1: people don't know what resources are available in the community.
1:01:24
Speaker 1: Many times, a lot of people who are suffering with
1:01:26
Speaker 1: a severe mental illness are left alone, dismissed by family
1:01:30
Speaker 1: and friends because they don't know what to do to
1:01:33
Speaker 1: help that person. So I use my life story to
1:01:36
Speaker 1: help individuals who are in a position that I was
1:01:39
Speaker 1: in and dealing with my mother who suffers from schizophrenia. Wow,
1:01:44
Speaker 1: what do you think it would take to completely eradicate
1:01:46
Speaker 1: stigmas of mental illness in the Black community. Well, first
1:01:50
Speaker 1: of all, we need to recognize the stereotypes that we
1:01:52
Speaker 1: associate with mental illness. Many times, perhaps it's the people
1:01:56
Speaker 1: that are untreated, who are in psychotic states that we
1:01:59
Speaker 1: associate with the term mental illness. And therefore, anybody that's
1:02:03
Speaker 1: dealing with depression or anxiety or just mild symptoms don't
1:02:07
Speaker 1: want to be associated with those images, and therefore the
1:02:11
Speaker 1: stigma prevents us from getting therapy, prevents us from seeking
1:02:16
Speaker 1: treatment that is readily available. And in order to eradicate it,
1:02:20
Speaker 1: we have to acknowledge that it is present, it's real,
1:02:23
Speaker 1: it doesn't discriminate with anyone, regardless of your gender, your race,
1:02:27
Speaker 1: your socio economic status. So it's important for us to
1:02:30
Speaker 1: acknowledge it, to accept it, to love our loved ones
1:02:34
Speaker 1: through the symptoms that they exhibit, and then ultimately advocate
1:02:37
Speaker 1: by talking about it using your platform, which I appreciate
1:02:40
Speaker 1: you all doing today. This is National Mental Health Awareness Month,
1:02:44
Speaker 1: July is Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, and this is
1:02:48
Speaker 1: a three sixty five global issues, So all throughout the year,
1:02:51
Speaker 1: we need to continue to talk about it. And then
1:02:54
Speaker 1: take action through legislation, seeking research and funding that can
1:02:58
Speaker 1: help us to know about other medications that may help
1:03:01
Speaker 1: individuals who are experiencing severe mental illness. I wanted to
1:03:05
Speaker 1: ask you a question about I get several ask ye.
1:03:08
Speaker 1: That's the advice segment that I have, And several people
1:03:11
Speaker 1: have emailed me and they're in relationships with people who
1:03:15
Speaker 1: they feel are suffering from mental illness, but the person
1:03:18
Speaker 1: doesn't want to seek professional help, and they don't know
1:03:21
Speaker 1: what they should do. Should they stay in the relationship?
1:03:23
Speaker 1: What are some options available If you are in a
1:03:26
Speaker 1: relationship with somebody who you feel like, Okay, they do
1:03:30
Speaker 1: need to get professional help, but they're not willing to
1:03:32
Speaker 1: do that, what would you advise? Yeah, I would advise
1:03:35
Speaker 1: the person who is asking that question to seek for
1:03:38
Speaker 1: him or herself, for example, having consultation with organizations like NAMI.
1:03:43
Speaker 1: They can help you to establish effective tools and continue
1:03:46
Speaker 1: in the relationship with that person, or understanding that you
1:03:49
Speaker 1: may not be able to continue the relationship with that person,
1:03:52
Speaker 1: ultimately being able to set boundaries and dependent on what
1:03:56
Speaker 1: the mental illness is, you have to be aware of
1:03:59
Speaker 1: the potential symptoms that that person can exhibit. Especially if
1:04:03
Speaker 1: you're dealing with severe mental illness like schizophrenia and bipolar.
1:04:07
Speaker 1: Those types of severe mental illness is less untreated, can
1:04:11
Speaker 1: be dangerous, and you wouldn't want to put yourself in
1:04:13
Speaker 1: that position. What is the triple A strategy to destigmatizing
1:04:18
Speaker 1: mental illness? Actually something that just went over, but acknowledging, accepting,
1:04:24
Speaker 1: and advocating. A lot of us want to ignore or
1:04:28
Speaker 1: deny symptoms. For example, if we're in that relationship you know,
1:04:31
Speaker 1: and the person is exhibiting things, don't don't ignore that.
1:04:35
Speaker 1: You have to be cognizant and aware of potential symptoms
1:04:38
Speaker 1: and knowing that you are not putting yourself at harm.
1:04:42
Speaker 1: Acknowledging also includes learning more about illnesses so that you
1:04:45
Speaker 1: can help your loved one to cope, to build up
1:04:48
Speaker 1: the tools necessary to have the highest quality of life,
1:04:51
Speaker 1: and then acknowledging in the sense of knowing about the
1:04:54
Speaker 1: resources that are available in the community. The second part
1:04:58
Speaker 1: is accepting, accepting that this person is mentally ill. Your
1:05:01
Speaker 1: loved one or friends may never be the way he
1:05:04
Speaker 1: or she was before exhibiting The first signs of severe
1:05:06
Speaker 1: mental illness, For example, with schizophrenia is described in like
1:05:10
Speaker 1: threes in thirds. One third of people who experience schisophrenia
1:05:15
Speaker 1: may have one about with symptoms related to schizophrenia and
1:05:19
Speaker 1: never have reoccurring symptoms. The second third of individuals like
1:05:24
Speaker 1: my mother, may be in an out of mental institutions
1:05:27
Speaker 1: for the rest of their lives, on and off of
1:05:29
Speaker 1: the medication because they believe at some point that they
1:05:32
Speaker 1: don't need it. They get off of it, left untreated,
1:05:35
Speaker 1: their symptoms become very severe. And then there are those
1:05:38
Speaker 1: that we may see on the street on any given
1:05:41
Speaker 1: day in any city USA, who are homeless, who are
1:05:44
Speaker 1: exhibiting severe signs of mental illness. They're left untreated, they're
1:05:48
Speaker 1: not connected with any services in the community, and they
1:05:52
Speaker 1: end up dying, whether it's by suicide or someone on
1:05:55
Speaker 1: the streets killing them. And that who also talk about
1:06:00
Speaker 1: sorry yes, yes, such as you chalmagn you know with
1:06:06
Speaker 1: your book and also the guests that you all have
1:06:08
Speaker 1: had on here using your platform to openly talk about it,
1:06:11
Speaker 1: creating the space necessary for people to feel free to
1:06:14
Speaker 1: talk about it and share the symptoms, and understanding that
1:06:17
Speaker 1: there are services are available and we cannot afford to
1:06:21
Speaker 1: be ashamed of these services. In using the services, that
1:06:24
Speaker 1: are available. So the three US point strategy is the acknowledging, accepting,
1:06:30
Speaker 1: and advocacy. One thing you also discuss is undesirable circumstances.
1:06:34
Speaker 1: And you've said, don't allow undesirable circumstances to be excuses
1:06:37
Speaker 1: for you to fail, but allow them to be reasons
1:06:40
Speaker 1: for you to excel. So let's talk about what undesirable
1:06:43
Speaker 1: circumstances are in your book and how that has you
1:06:46
Speaker 1: driven Yes, thank you. I had a teacher in high
1:06:49
Speaker 1: school named Norma Washington, and she told me I had
1:06:54
Speaker 1: what she called undesirable circumstances. At that time in high school,
1:06:58
Speaker 1: I had been the fourteen school, lived in three states
1:07:01
Speaker 1: in eight different households. By the time I was fourteen,
1:07:04
Speaker 1: that's when my mother started to show signs of severe
1:07:07
Speaker 1: mental illness. And by the time I was fifteen, she
1:07:11
Speaker 1: left me in Texas and returned to Ohio. And by
1:07:15
Speaker 1: the time I was sixteen, my mother had attacked me
1:07:17
Speaker 1: and I was in the court system where at that
1:07:19
Speaker 1: time my grandmother, my paternal grandmother, took me in. And
1:07:23
Speaker 1: so just those circumstances alone, in addition to other things
1:07:27
Speaker 1: that I've experienced, have been attributed some to my mother's illness,
1:07:32
Speaker 1: just to the factors that a lot of people in
1:07:34
Speaker 1: the African American community face, such as poverty, transient lifestyles,
1:07:39
Speaker 1: and things of that nature. So with that, but to
1:07:42
Speaker 1: word phrase, I turned it into my life's model, which
1:07:45
Speaker 1: is not to allow undesirable circumstances like some of the
1:07:49
Speaker 1: ones that I've experienced, to be excuses for you not
1:07:52
Speaker 1: to do things, not to pursue goals and objectives, not
1:07:55
Speaker 1: to pursue a better quality of life because of those
1:07:58
Speaker 1: undesirable circumstance, but to use them to excel in your life.
1:08:03
Speaker 1: All Right, we got more with Attorney Corey mindus Smith.
1:08:05
Speaker 1: When we come back, don't move. It's the breakfast club.
1:08:07
Speaker 1: Good morning, pointing. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Shalomain
1:08:11
Speaker 1: the guy. We are the breakfast Club. We're still kicking
1:08:13
Speaker 1: it with Attorney Corey minus Smith Chalomagne. You know, I
1:08:17
Speaker 1: love how you talk about, you know, your loved ones
1:08:19
Speaker 1: with mental illness, your mom, because you know, I've seen
1:08:22
Speaker 1: so many people affected by a grandmother or a mother
1:08:26
Speaker 1: who has all time as a dementia and doesn't remember
1:08:28
Speaker 1: them anymore. How do you handle having loved ones with
1:08:32
Speaker 1: mental illness and you staying mentally saying when something like
1:08:35
Speaker 1: that happens. That's a very good question, because it's a
1:08:38
Speaker 1: day by day process. You have to create boundaries and
1:08:42
Speaker 1: knowing what you can and cannot do for your loved one,
1:08:46
Speaker 1: knowing when it's necessary to take a step back, and
1:08:49
Speaker 1: that's when it's important to have those resources that are
1:08:51
Speaker 1: available in the community, because you can have case workers
1:08:55
Speaker 1: that are able to directly connect with your loved one
1:08:58
Speaker 1: rather than you. And my case, I'm my mother's only child,
1:09:02
Speaker 1: so many times I'm the focus of her psychotic states.
1:09:06
Speaker 1: I'm blamed for things a lot, but my love for
1:09:09
Speaker 1: my mom overshadows all of that, and I want to
1:09:12
Speaker 1: be there for as much as I can, so I
1:09:14
Speaker 1: rely on community resources, and I suggest that people connect
1:09:18
Speaker 1: with services like NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness,
1:09:22
Speaker 1: their local chapters in the community, and they can connect
1:09:26
Speaker 1: your loved one with services. Right now, there are people
1:09:29
Speaker 1: who are quarantined also and going through a lot of
1:09:31
Speaker 1: different things with the people who they love. What advice
1:09:34
Speaker 1: do you give people right now and quarantine who are
1:09:37
Speaker 1: going through difficult circumstances and how to come through it
1:09:40
Speaker 1: on the other side, even stronger. Absolutely, I suggest using
1:09:45
Speaker 1: this time. I'm using this time just to be grateful.
1:09:47
Speaker 1: This has given us a lot of time to be
1:09:49
Speaker 1: quiet and be still and understanding our thoughts how we
1:09:52
Speaker 1: want to come out of this. But ultimately, if someone
1:09:55
Speaker 1: is feeling like they just can't handle it, you know
1:09:57
Speaker 1: they feel too much distress, I suggest as doing a
1:10:00
Speaker 1: mental health assessment and understanding what tools and resources may
1:10:04
Speaker 1: be available to help you with those things. For example,
1:10:07
Speaker 1: there's an organization called Mental Health America, and right now
1:10:10
Speaker 1: you can go online and do a mental health assessment,
1:10:14
Speaker 1: especially since you can't necessarily get to in person appointment
1:10:18
Speaker 1: with your medical doctor or if you do see a counselor,
1:10:21
Speaker 1: it's great that there are telehealth services available where you
1:10:24
Speaker 1: can talk over the phone with a counselor. NAMI, the
1:10:28
Speaker 1: National Alliance on Mental Illness, has peer to peer support
1:10:32
Speaker 1: as well as family to family support, and those services
1:10:36
Speaker 1: are available on zoom Calls online, and they have created
1:10:39
Speaker 1: a confidential space so that those who want to participate
1:10:43
Speaker 1: in those programs can. You know you broke the book
1:10:46
Speaker 1: down in the five parts to faith, motivation, determination, preparation,
1:10:50
Speaker 1: and action or roll did each of those play in
1:10:53
Speaker 1: your life. Faith definitely played a part in it. You know,
1:10:56
Speaker 1: while my family, my mother, my father may not have
1:10:59
Speaker 1: always gone to church, my father required me to go
1:11:02
Speaker 1: to church when I lived with him, and it ultimately
1:11:05
Speaker 1: helped in those rough teenage years right where I was
1:11:09
Speaker 1: hanging out with the crowd that we did some activities
1:11:12
Speaker 1: that weren't necessarily good, you know, jumping girls unfortunately, trying
1:11:16
Speaker 1: to sell drugs, just hanging out in the streets and
1:11:19
Speaker 1: those types of things. But ultimately, my faith and those
1:11:22
Speaker 1: who pray for me when I didn't know those to
1:11:25
Speaker 1: pray for myself help me to excel through those undesirable
1:11:28
Speaker 1: circumstances Angela that you asked about, and ultimately leading me
1:11:32
Speaker 1: to wanting to do more. And that's where the motivation
1:11:35
Speaker 1: came in. You know, you may not always have the
1:11:38
Speaker 1: inner drive to get you to your next goal, but
1:11:41
Speaker 1: other people in your circle, they can be instrumental in
1:11:45
Speaker 1: helping you to have the motivation or give you motivation
1:11:48
Speaker 1: to come out of your circumstances. The determination I came
1:11:51
Speaker 1: up with that listening to Shannon Shark's NFL speech. He
1:11:57
Speaker 1: talked about having a five alarm fire and I identify
1:12:01
Speaker 1: with that so much because I never knew what drove
1:12:04
Speaker 1: me to want to accomplish things in my life, but
1:12:07
Speaker 1: ultimately it was the undesive of circumstances that I wanted
1:12:10
Speaker 1: to get away from. So that's where the determination piece
1:12:13
Speaker 1: comes from. Preparation is being prepared for the things that
1:12:18
Speaker 1: you want in your life. Many times we think we
1:12:20
Speaker 1: can just connect with a person of same or celebrity
1:12:23
Speaker 1: and they can just automatically get us to where we
1:12:25
Speaker 1: want to be. But if you're not prepared to be
1:12:28
Speaker 1: where you want to be, you won't get there. And
1:12:30
Speaker 1: then as far as action, the fifth part of it.
1:12:33
Speaker 1: You can daydream, think about doodle on paper all day long,
1:12:38
Speaker 1: but if you don't take action to get where you
1:12:41
Speaker 1: want to go, you'll never make it to reaching those
1:12:43
Speaker 1: goals that you set for yourself. So those are my
1:12:46
Speaker 1: five principles that break down the book hashtag driven. I
1:12:50
Speaker 1: was going to say, the book is a very useful
1:12:51
Speaker 1: and helpful tool for people, and I think it will
1:12:53
Speaker 1: definitely inspire people to want to make sure they check
1:12:56
Speaker 1: on their mental health even more. Yes, yes, And I
1:12:59
Speaker 1: just want to say, well more thing, You're right, it
1:13:01
Speaker 1: is okay to not be okay, and I know now
1:13:02
Speaker 1: it's a difficult time for people worried about finances, worried
1:13:06
Speaker 1: about family members, just worried about going outside in general.
1:13:10
Speaker 1: And it is okay to have those concerns and worries
1:13:13
Speaker 1: and to not be okay. But how do you know
1:13:15
Speaker 1: when it's to the point where it is something that
1:13:17
Speaker 1: you have to take action and take control of. If
1:13:20
Speaker 1: you're losing fleet, if you're not eating the way you're
1:13:23
Speaker 1: used to eating, if you're not connecting and engaging people.
1:13:27
Speaker 1: I know we can't personally or in person, but just
1:13:31
Speaker 1: not wanting to talk to anybody on the phone. Those
1:13:33
Speaker 1: are some top signs that things may not be right
1:13:36
Speaker 1: for you at this time, and maybe you need to
1:13:39
Speaker 1: consider talking to someone to talk through that. It's important
1:13:43
Speaker 1: to just understand there's no reason to be ashamed of
1:13:46
Speaker 1: reaching out for help, even if you talk to a friend.
1:13:50
Speaker 1: You know, I relied on my best friend Kim a lot,
1:13:54
Speaker 1: but I found that I could not keep putting all
1:13:56
Speaker 1: of that on her. So I have no problem, you know,
1:13:59
Speaker 1: identifying that I go to counseling. There's no way I
1:14:01
Speaker 1: could get through all of the issues and concerns that
1:14:04
Speaker 1: I have, especially in trying to be there for my
1:14:06
Speaker 1: mother without taking some time for myself and understanding the
1:14:10
Speaker 1: boundaries that I need to create and to use the
1:14:13
Speaker 1: services that are available rather than putting it all on
1:14:16
Speaker 1: myself to me forward. Thank you. Where can we get
1:14:20
Speaker 1: Driven from? Yes? Driven is available by going to Corey

Speaker 1: Minor Smith. It's the Breakfast Club, the Breakfast Club. Everybody
1:15:43
Speaker 1: is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We are
1:15:47
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the room as let's
1:15:49
Speaker 1: talk the dream. This is the rumor report with Angela
1:15:57
Speaker 1: Yee on the Breakfast Club. Yes that we went on
1:16:00
Speaker 1: Twitter to address the damage that he's seen being done
1:16:03
Speaker 1: in the city of Atlanta. He said, remember this, he said. First,
1:16:08
Speaker 1: he said, dear people, if you're not from Atlanta, don't
1:16:10
Speaker 1: come here and please go home. I own things in
1:16:12
Speaker 1: the city. A lot of blacks owned things in the
1:16:14
Speaker 1: city from Bankhead to Buckhead. Do not destroy property that
1:16:17
Speaker 1: in negainst the decades of work. My children will not
1:16:19
Speaker 1: be set back by you. And then when he got
1:16:22
Speaker 1: backlash from that, he responded saying, remember this, when it's
1:16:24
Speaker 1: hard to get a loan being black too, When a
1:16:26
Speaker 1: black business is burned down, it usually never returns. Three.
1:16:29
Speaker 1: They will still owe the loan four credit to start
1:16:31
Speaker 1: again as rejected. Five we have to wait a hold
1:16:33
Speaker 1: generation to restart. These are some facts, are y'all that simple?
1:16:37
Speaker 1: All I talk about is black Ish. All I do
1:16:39
Speaker 1: is Blackish. Yo. I can't say, don't burn down my home. Yeah,
1:16:42
Speaker 1: I'm sorry if you feel that's cool. I've been in
1:16:45
Speaker 1: the streets. I've been part of illegal arrest and unrest.
1:16:47
Speaker 1: Here's what you want. Here what you want. So people
1:16:50
Speaker 1: were giving him a lot of backlash for talking about
1:16:53
Speaker 1: the protesters in the city. Well, he didn't say don't protest.
1:16:57
Speaker 1: He just said, don't burn down our own stuff, our
1:16:59
Speaker 1: own unity. You know, like he said, there's a lot
1:17:01
Speaker 1: of black businesses out there that if they burned down,
1:17:04
Speaker 1: they probably will never be able to get back up.
1:17:06
Speaker 1: So I understand what he was saying. Yeah, I mean,
1:17:09
Speaker 1: he's right, And you know, nobody is wrong when they
1:17:12
Speaker 1: tell you not to tear up your own community. But
1:17:14
Speaker 1: you know, once that mayhem and rage starts, you can't
1:17:17
Speaker 1: control it. You just hope that you don't. They don't
1:17:19
Speaker 1: tell up their own stuff, right, you don't you see
1:17:23
Speaker 1: a police priest in blowing up. Okay, you get it.
1:17:26
Speaker 1: You see police cars blowing up, Okay, you get it.
1:17:28
Speaker 1: But you know, don't go to the black owned businesses. Now,
1:17:32
Speaker 1: Twitter is also upset at LL cool J, and they
1:17:35
Speaker 1: don't understand why he would question. He put out a
1:17:39
Speaker 1: tweet imagine how people are raising by racial children feel
1:17:42
Speaker 1: right now? This is crazy. So people were not understanding
1:17:45
Speaker 1: why he decided to come to Twitter with that thought,
1:17:48
Speaker 1: and there was some backlash for that. The backlash was
1:17:50
Speaker 1: so strong that he actually went on Instagram Live to
1:17:53
Speaker 1: try to clarify what he meant. Here's what he said.
1:17:57
Speaker 1: It give me that just be act like a moral
1:18:00
Speaker 1: or act like an idiot just for you to like me,
1:18:02
Speaker 1: kiss my ass. I ain't doing that either. I'm not
1:18:06
Speaker 1: going to tell lies on Twitter or tell or act
1:18:09
Speaker 1: like I don't have questions about things just to please you.
1:18:12
Speaker 1: I don't care if you like damn not, because there
1:18:15
Speaker 1: are a lot of like minded people who do and
1:18:17
Speaker 1: who get it, and that's who I care about. You know,
1:18:20
Speaker 1: I don't like seeing ll not cool like. It can't
1:18:24
Speaker 1: just be lll J. It's got to be LLL cool
1:18:26
Speaker 1: J at all times. On that video, he lost his cool.
1:18:31
Speaker 1: LLL is an icon. You know what I'm saying. LL
1:18:33
Speaker 1: always seems to be in control and every situation, even
1:18:36
Speaker 1: when you hear about people breaking in his house, he's
1:18:39
Speaker 1: in control, beating the person up, calling the police. It
1:18:42
Speaker 1: seems like he wasn't in control in that video. I
1:18:45
Speaker 1: don't like cl I don't like seeing LL without the cool. Yeah.
1:18:48
Speaker 1: I'm not even still sure what he meant by that
1:18:50
Speaker 1: statement at that time, but all right now, Janelle, Yeah,
1:18:55
Speaker 1: he was talking about by racial He was saying, you're
1:18:58
Speaker 1: on both sides of defense. I guess that would that's
1:19:00
Speaker 1: what he was saying. But LL always a person that
1:19:02
Speaker 1: stood up for our community. LL is always the person
1:19:05
Speaker 1: that made show. He took care of kids in our community.
1:19:08
Speaker 1: So you know, like like May said, I don't you
1:19:11
Speaker 1: know LL wilding out? Like you know, LLL is too
1:19:13
Speaker 1: cool for that. He just basically was saying that, you know,
1:19:16
Speaker 1: how do you have that conversation? And I'm mixed household?
1:19:19
Speaker 1: If you got you know, if you're a white mom
1:19:21
Speaker 1: with black kids, that's gotta be a difficult conversation with
1:19:24
Speaker 1: a white husband. It's just gotta be a difficult conversation.
1:19:26
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's the conversation you should be
1:19:28
Speaker 1: having now. But I get get what he was saying.
1:19:31
Speaker 1: It just gotta be on the side of right. It's
1:19:33
Speaker 1: not about that for white people. If you have an
1:19:35
Speaker 1: issue with what happened, then you're on the side of right.
1:19:39
Speaker 1: And so I don't think you know, I don't know.
1:19:41
Speaker 1: It was just a weird statement to me. But I mean,
1:19:44
Speaker 1: I'm by racial and I was confused, but he was
1:19:47
Speaker 1: just insane. I just I couldn't imagine, you know, being
1:19:49
Speaker 1: in that situation, being a parent in that situation. People
1:19:51
Speaker 1: got to stop breaking down what people say, so to
1:19:53
Speaker 1: the to the bonom like like. But he had an
1:19:56
Speaker 1: opinion on something and had a thought. And just because
1:19:58
Speaker 1: he had a thought doesn't mean he's not the cause.
1:20:00
Speaker 1: He's not for the people people take these things. Certain,
1:20:03
Speaker 1: certain certain thoughts got to be fleshed out. Though it
1:20:07
Speaker 1: was just confusing to me. I just didn't understand it.
1:20:09
Speaker 1: I wasn't like your cancel, but I just really didn't
1:20:11
Speaker 1: understand it. That's all got to be fleshed out, that's all.
1:20:16
Speaker 1: You can't just tweet things out randomly like that in
1:20:18
Speaker 1: the middle of the night. What do by racial can't
1:20:20
Speaker 1: feel what's out of nowhere with no context? All right, Yeah,
1:20:32
Speaker 1: The NFL released the statement, the NFL family is greatly
1:20:35
Speaker 1: saddened by the tragic events across our country. The protesters
1:20:38
Speaker 1: reactions to these incidents reflect the pain, anger, and frustration
1:20:41
Speaker 1: that so many of us feel. Our deepest condolences go
1:20:44
Speaker 1: out to the family and mister George Floyd, and to
1:20:46
Speaker 1: those who have lost loved ones, including the families of
1:20:48
Speaker 1: miss Brianna Taylor and Louisville and mister modd Arbury, the
1:20:51
Speaker 1: cousin of Tracy Walker of the Detroit Lions, and they
1:20:55
Speaker 1: went on to talk about the systemic issues with our players, clubs,
1:20:58
Speaker 1: and partners and continuing the important work to address those issues.
1:21:03
Speaker 1: The NFL sent this out now. Jamil Hill tweeted out,
1:21:07
Speaker 1: you gotta be fing kidding me, and she's the NFL
1:21:11
Speaker 1: tweeting about what happened with George Floyd is the equivalent
1:21:13
Speaker 1: of when the CIA recognizes dark doctor Martin Luther King
1:21:16
Speaker 1: Junior's birthday, loved him so much, y'all helped to kill him.
1:21:18
Speaker 1: Get out of here with the bs. And Ava Dubernat said,
1:21:22
Speaker 1: the accuracy, the precision, and she said to the NFL
1:21:25
Speaker 1: Shame on you. This is beyond hollow and disingenuous. This
1:21:28
Speaker 1: is a lie. Your actions show who you are. You've
1:21:30
Speaker 1: done nothing but the exact opposite of what you describe here.
1:21:32
Speaker 1: Keep mister Floyd's name out of your mouth. Shame on
1:21:35
Speaker 1: you and the consultants of this travesty of an organization. Yeah,
1:21:39
Speaker 1: I mean, that was the whole point of Colin Kaepernick
1:21:41
Speaker 1: taking a knee, right, you know, And I mean, by
1:21:43
Speaker 1: the way, America, Colin showed you the most peaceful, respectful
1:21:47
Speaker 1: way to protests, and y'all didn't like a respect that either.
1:21:49
Speaker 1: So now sinks the things he was kneeling for continue
1:21:52
Speaker 1: to happen. The only language they understand is revolt, you know.
1:21:56
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, all right, and yeah absolutely. Faith Stevans
1:22:02
Speaker 1: was arrested also for allegedly attacking Stevie J. According to
1:22:06
Speaker 1: new reports, the police were called to their home in
1:22:09
Speaker 1: la and upon their arrival they saw that STEVIEJ had
1:22:11
Speaker 1: marked and scratches on his face. They said that two
1:22:13
Speaker 1: of them got into a very ugly screaming match, and
1:22:15
Speaker 1: they don't know what it was about. She was arrested
1:22:17
Speaker 1: for domestic violence and was released on bond. Hours later.
1:22:21
Speaker 1: All right. In addition to that, Kylie Jenner and Chris
1:22:25
Speaker 1: Jenner are allegedly freaking out, and that's because Forbes is
1:22:28
Speaker 1: saying that she lied about being a billionaire. They actually
1:22:31
Speaker 1: put out an article. It was called inside Kylie Jenner's
1:22:34
Speaker 1: Web of Lies and why she's no longer a billionaire
1:22:37
Speaker 1: according to Forbes. They said, you'll remember, they said she's
1:22:42
Speaker 1: not worth as much in May of twenty twenty. So
1:22:45
Speaker 1: they're saying in January, she sold fifty one percent of
1:22:48
Speaker 1: Kylie Cosmetics to the company Cody, which is a huge
1:22:51
Speaker 1: beauty company, for six hundred million dollars. That would have
1:22:54
Speaker 1: put a value on the branded around one point two
1:22:56
Speaker 1: billion dollars because Cody is publicly traded, though those fining
1:23:00
Speaker 1: and to documents and records must be disclosed. And what
1:23:02
Speaker 1: they are saying is the deal was not that much,
1:23:05
Speaker 1: and revenues over a twelve month period before the deal
1:23:08
Speaker 1: was one hundred and seventy seven million dollars, which was
1:23:10
Speaker 1: far lower than the published estimates at the time. And
1:23:13
Speaker 1: then the piece they're also saying that they feel like
1:23:16
Speaker 1: some of those documents that she gave them was forged.
1:23:19
Speaker 1: So Kylie Jenner has responded as she woke up and
1:23:23
Speaker 1: just acted like the whole thing was just lies, And
1:23:26
Speaker 1: she said, what am I even waking up to? I
1:23:28
Speaker 1: thought this was a reputable site. All I see are
1:23:31
Speaker 1: a number of inaccurate statements and unproven assumptions. I've never
1:23:34
Speaker 1: asked for any title or tried to lie my way
1:23:36
Speaker 1: there ever period, even creating tax returns that were likely fords.
1:23:40
Speaker 1: That's your proof, So you just thought they were forged.
1:23:43
Speaker 1: So maybe she's not a billionaire. I guess we'll see.
1:23:47
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter right now. Rich people problems. It doesn't
1:23:51
Speaker 1: matter right now. Though. I wasted my time reading that
1:23:55
Speaker 1: article this weekend, and it was so dumb. You know why.
1:23:57
Speaker 1: You know why because at the end of the article
1:24:00
Speaker 1: it says it says she's not worth over a billion,
1:24:03
Speaker 1: she's worth a little under nine hundred million. No, who cares? Okay,
1:24:08
Speaker 1: forty plus a million people unemployed, largest unemployment, racings, the depression,
1:24:12
Speaker 1: people looting their asses off, and y'all want me to
1:24:14
Speaker 1: care that a person's not a billionaire but they're worth
1:24:17
Speaker 1: a little under nine hundred million. That was worth a
1:24:20
Speaker 1: whole article. Let's stop, man. That was what was wrong.
1:24:23
