  Speaker 1: So check out Stacy instead of going to classes. Why

• 3:41
  Speaker 1: went to cycle under State. Were just the crib playing spade,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: and I said something. My mom was like, you think
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: I'm not a play spade? I went to an HBCU.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: One of my friends actually had to do another semester
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: because she used to miss class all the time because
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: she would be playing spades. Is that your friend that
• 3:57

  Speaker 1: play s page in the county jail? For me, what
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: did y'all play for? Because you know, college we play
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: for things. What did you play for the county jail?
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: What did we didn't play for? Nothing? Play play to
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: play the path to time. That's what we played. Bro,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: we won't judge. You do what you gotta do. It
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: is what it is. All right, let's get the show
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: crack in front page news. What we're talking about, Well,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: let's talk about student loan forgiveness. Now, Joe Biden has
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: rejected a fifteen fifty thousand dollars student loan forgiveness plan,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: and we'll tell you about the backlash. All right. We'll
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: get into all that when we come back, and Erica,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Alexander and Whitney daw will be joining us, so we'll
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: kick it with them as well. It's the breakfast Club.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Good morning. Let's get in some front page news where
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: we're starting you, Well, let's start with this student loan
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: forgiveness because I know that's something that's front and center
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: on a lot of people's minds if you've gone to college,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: if you have kids that have went to college, and
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: now you have these student loans that are weighing on you.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: So during Joe Biden's town hall on Tuesday, he did
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: again address a student loan forgiveness and say that he's
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: not willing to forgive fifty thousand dollars. Here's what he said.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: We need student loan forgiveness beyond the potential ten thousand dollars.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Your administration has a proposed we need at least a
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars minimum. I will not make that happen,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: but everyone should be able to go to community college
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: for free. And I think any family making under one
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five thousand dollars whose kids go to
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: a state university they get into that should be free
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: as well. And the thing I do in terms of
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: student debt that's accumulated is provide for changing the existing
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: system now for debt forgiveness if you engage in volunteer activity.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: I agree. So I wonder why they just don't pay
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: a very the student loan there, Like I saw, the
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: biggest student loan debt in America is one point seven
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: trillion dollars, Like we watched them give damn near four
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: trillion dollars out last year. Those corporations get trillions of dollars.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: The millionaires and billionaires who already got it get get
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: trillions of dollars when they need a bail out. Why
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: not take care of the student loan there? Why not
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: wipe that off? To wipe that off? Does it matter
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: if the person is making like a lot of money
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: or if their family has a lot of money, should
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: that be forgiven? Because that's another proposal that's come up.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: If you make up to one hundred and twenty five
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars, then yes, but any if you make above that,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: then I think it's proportionate. There's all kinds of different things,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: but I think you've got to raise a board because
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: it depends where you live. Because if you make one
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five thousand dollars in New York, you're
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: still not doing that well because everything in New York
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: and the prices of rent and everything is so expensive.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Or if you make that in LA the price is expensive.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: But I think that they should if you make a
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: certain amount, maybe one seventy five for both family members.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: I think that they should take care of your your
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: college absolutely past. I was gonna say that black class
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: comes from this. Alexandria Kazio Cortes said, who cares what
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: school someone went to. Entire generations of working class kids
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: were encouraged to go into more debt under the guise
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: of elitism. That is wrong. Nowhere does it say we
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: must trade off early childhood education for student loan forgiveness.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: We can have both. Yeah, I don't see why everybody
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: can't get paid off, because, like I said, you got
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: these corporations, these millionaires, these billionaires who receive trillion dollar bailouts,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: and they got it. That true. Do same for the
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: kids one point seven training and student loan debt. Wipe
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: that off for these kids. Give them a head start
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: in life. Don't let them start in debt. Here's what
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: else Joe Biden have to say. I do think that
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: in this moment of economic pain and strain, that we
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: should be eliminating interest on the debts that are accumulated.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Number one and number two, I'm prepared to right off
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: the ten thousand dollars debt, but not fifty with ten
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars help, I'm sure, it would help, right, it
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: would help. But when kids like hundred twenty five thousand
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: a year and it's one hundred thousand dollars, that ten
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: thous you still ninety thousand, you know, like you said,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: they make they find all this other money for everything else.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: They find this money to bail out people, to help
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: the airplane the airline industry. Yeah, help these kids out
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: as well. I just remember how crippling student loans were
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: for me, knowing that when I first graduated, having to
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: pay those and get a job and pay my bills
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: in you know, have to pay for eating every day
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: to stretch everything. Then I had to keep getting the ferments.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Just just just just wipe it off with the kids.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: And if he's saying that community college should be free,
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: what she's saying, If you're already saying that should happen,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: then everybody that went to community college at least they
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: should get their student loans wiped off, right, since you're
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: already gonna make it free anyway. I look at that.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: It's the same way with the criminalizing marijuana. Once you
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: decriminalize marijuana, or if you want to decriminalize marijuana, you
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: gotta let everybody out of jail. Who's in there for
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: non violent? Uh drug offenses? We defenses? All right, well
• 8:59

• 14:49
  Speaker 1: student loan debt or ten thousand dollars and a public

  Speaker 1: DREI five one oh five one if you need to vent,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: you can hit us up right now. Now, we got
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: rumors on the way, yes, and we had reported earlier
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: and gave given our condolences to Nicki Minaj and her
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: family after her father was killed in a hitt and run. Well,
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: now the driver has surrender to the cops. All right,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: we'll get into that next. Keep a lock. That's to
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Good morning the Breakfast Club. This is the
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: rumor report with Angela years Well, the driver who was
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: wanted for hitting Nicki Minaj's father with a car and
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: a hitt and run has turned himself in. As you know,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Nicki Minaj's father passed away. Again, condolences to Niki and
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: her family. But police did arrest seventy year old Charles Polovich. Damn.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: That's sac He's older than Nikki's father. He's been arraigned
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: in charge with two felonies, leaving the scene of an
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: incident involving death of a person and tampering with or
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: suppressing physical evidenced. He wouldn't have got charged at all
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: if an accident. Ye, dam According to reports, he exited
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: his vehicle stood over Nicki Minaj's dad. Robert Mirage asked
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: if he was okay, walked and returned to his vehicle
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: and then fled the scene. I mean, what was the
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: response when he asked her asked him, was he okay?
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: Why would you just leave the scene like that? Condolences
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: go to Nikki's family. And I'm sure that you know
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: that seventy year old man conscious was eating him alive.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: That's why he probably turned himself in. But it's just
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: a tragic situation all the way around, right, And then
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: they said, and this is how you know he knew
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: he did something crazy. He actually drove home, avoiding intersections
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: and he hit his vehicle in the detached garage at
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: his residence. Absolutely, because I'm sure when he asked, you know,
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Nicki's father, was he okay? Probably was no response. All
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: he could look and see visibly that you know that
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: brother wasn't okay. But he should have. I mean, but
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: if you'd have called the police, it might have saved
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: his life, you know. I mean, even if they will absolutely,
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: you know, resuscitate him or whatever, but they definitely should
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: have called the police. Might have saved that man. Nobody
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: wants to deal with the consequences of their actions. Sometimes
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: I'll be thinking it's just a young thing, but clearly
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: it's not like damn all right. Now, Quevo has a
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: new show coming to YouTube this summer, and this is
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: with content that's being rolled out from the YouTube. Black
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Voice is fund and so he'll be going to local
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: basketball courts around the country and linking up with NBA
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: stars who live in the area and teaching viewers about
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: the role that basketball courts play in the local community
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: at large and also important historical moments. It's called Supreme
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: Courts and it's his own idea. By the way, it
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: was his brain child. That's dope. You know. You know
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: he loves basketball so m and by the way, Culture
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: three will be out soon, FYI. They had already announced
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: that now the guerrilla glue girl, Tessica Brown, her go
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: fund me is under investigation, so she can't take out
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: any of the money. She ended up getting twenty three
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars in that go fund me. She said they
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: won't release it to her because many people have called
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: and said it was a fraudulent account. Every time you
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: look at it, it says it's under investigation. So I
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: guess people are not believing her or I don't know
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: what's going on. But she can't get that money that
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: was in that go fund me, So would you say
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: her goalfund me is a sticky situation right now? Well,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: she wanted to actually donate to the doctor who helped
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: her hair and helped her get the guerrilla glue out.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: She wanted to donate twenty thousand to his charity, and
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: that was what she was planning to do with the money.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: And she said the rest of the cash she wants
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: to use for families in her parish which she personally
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: knows have been struggling. She wants people to know it
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: was not a social media's done as some believe. A
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: right man, there's a quote. The quote is clever is
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: getting out of a sticky situation? Wise is not getting
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: into a sticky situation. Sounds like this whole situation is
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: sticky with Jessica Brown all the way around. It's interesting
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: that there were so many I be cats after stupid people.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: All right. Rowdy Rebel says Bobby Schmirder will be out
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: in less than a week, So we hope this is
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: not another false alarm. But they are saying he wrote
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: on Instagram six days yesterday, so hopefully that means he'll
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: be coming home, like for real, in a few days. Yeah.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: I thought his mother said February too, So I'm hoping
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: he is coming home in the next couple of days.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: That'll be dope. Yeah, I'd be feeling bad. Not bad,
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: but I get like anxiety when I see you know,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: people post stuff like that because you know a brother
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: like Bobby's murder. He'll be home in six days. He's
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: gonna come home to a lot of love and a
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: lot of fan fair. You got haters in jail. You
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: got people that be jealous and intervious in jail, you know,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: and try to disrupt something just because they know that
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: brother coming home. So I'll be wondering sometimes if it's
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: even good to put that out there. All right, Scissor
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: is giving fans an update on some new music now.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: She was on an interview with CBS this morning talking
• 20:52

• 21:41
  Speaker 1: as soon as possible and soon it's your turn. But
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: NBA players are very hesitant to promote these vaccines. And
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: we'll give you some more information. All right, we'll get

  Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast club. Let's get
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: in some front page news. No, my tennis fans. Naomi
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Osaka beat Serena in Australian Open semifinals yesterday. So Naomi
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Osaka beat Serena. Also, I would saying the equivalent of that,
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: I was telling dramas this early. The equivalent of that
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: is like if Patrick Mahomes had beat Tom Brady in
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Correct, absolutely, yeah, Well US Open is
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: considered I guess I think the super Bowl of everything.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: But yes, similar to that. And also you see that
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: they imploded Trump Tower out in Atlantic City. Yeah, so
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: everybody gathered around applauding the shout to the mayor, Marty Smalls.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: He wanted us to come broadcast out there. He was like,
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: why don't y'all come broadcasts out there? I was like, nah,
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: I'm good days, stay with that. I'm pretty good. All right?
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: What else we're talking about? Easy all Russia. Limbad died.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: He was seventy years old. He announced that he was
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: battling advanced lung cancer about a year ago, and things
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: took a turn for the worst recently. He missed some
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: shows and His wife Katherine, announced the news on his
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: radio show yesterday morning. Yeah, I saw that seventy years
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: old died of lung cancer. That's I don't I don't
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: want to go out that way, and I don't want
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: nobody that I love to go out that way. I
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: saw people celebrating the fact that he passed away yesterday,
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: and I didn't understand that because I just don't want
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: that kind of energy back on me. Seven y years
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: old died of lung cancer. Nah, no, way, I don't
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: want that. Yeah. I didn see too. My sympathy from
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: our community when it came to Russia limbad, which is
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: which is great. It's not even to me. It's not
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: even about Russia. It's just about the situation. Sometimes you
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: got to look at somebody and say, what I want
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: that to happen to me? Would I want that to
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: happen to somebody I love? That's like no, because I can,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: by the way, that can happen. To stay quiet. That's
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: one of those situations. Say anything business that could happen
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: to you. You can get lung cancer, your mom can
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: get lung cancer, your dad, people close to you, people
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: that you love. Is just like no, absolutely not you know,
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: but sometimes when you do certain things and then you know, yeah,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: I do be thinking about that, Like when you die,
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: you want to leave a positive mark on the world. Well,
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: if you heard, if you heard a community, and you
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: heard somebody, and somebody is affected by your words. Like
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: you said, for every action is a reaction. It is
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: what it is. That's not a right people are reacting to.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: How do you feel? You know what I mean. All
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: I'm saying is lung cancer. It's something that's out of
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: all of our control, which is true. That's what I'm saying,
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: all right. A lot of top NBA players are hesitant
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: to promote coronavirus vaccines. They've been trying to get them,
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: you know, because it's not a lot of trust when
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: it comes to vaccines in the United States, and the
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: NBA has reached out to the agents of many of
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: the league's elite play they wanted to try to get
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: some PSA is going to promote the safety and effective
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: effectiveness of the vaccine, but not too many players are
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: excited about being on the front lines of telling people
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: to go get vaccinated, and sources are saying there's a
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: number of factors that contribute to many players reluctance to participate,
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: which includes some of them don't want to take it themselves.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: They're not too certain about that, they don't want to
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: advocate its use for others, and also they don't want
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: to extend favors to a league amidst the largely unpopular
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: plans for All Star. For all of them distrust, they
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: act like the distrust is not warranted. It's absolutely warranted.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: Like the medical system in this country has been historically racist.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: We have every reason not to trust this country when
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: it comes to the vaccine. And like I've always said,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: they have not put any remedies for any other virus.
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: And in the Black community, whether it's been poverty, poor schools,
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: police brutality, you know, they don't. They don't care about
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: us any other time. But now all of a sudden,
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: it's like, hey, y'all need to get this vaccine first. Like,
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: but I would say they're not just giving it to
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: the Black community. They're given to everybody, doctors, healthcare workers, teaches,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: making everybody just very true, but it's not like there's
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: not a real push for they're getting in the black community,
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: like running running commercials on black radio. Tyler Perry got
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: b teach specials about it, like they're really making a
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: real push a right. They've asked me to be on
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: coronavirus vaccine task forces to try to get black people
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: to take it the same thing I just said, Yeah,
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: me too. But it's also a lot of black people
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: have underlying conditions, and we have diabetes, we have other
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: things that that affect us and having COVID. Very facts
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: such a small percentage of black people aren't getting the
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: vaccine that is gonna if it's a you know, being
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: that it's effective, which is what we are hoping, that
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: is going to be a disadvantage for us. Yet again,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: all that is true, but my point stands the trust,
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: the distrust is warranted. We have every reason not to
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: trust this country when it comes to that vaccine, because
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: it's even worse if none of us get vaccinated and
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: then that we can't move around, we can't do anything,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: and then we're the only ones getting sick. Kamala Harris
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: not our fault. We don't trust him. President Kamala Harris
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: has stressed that teachers should be given priority for getting
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: COVID nineteen vaccinations, and she wouldn't say if she thinks
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: that's what should be the prerequisite for reopening schools. Teachers
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: should be a priority along with other frontline workers, and
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: we're going to make them a priority. I believe that
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: twenty two states, I believe have prioritized, but they're not vaccinated.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: Is it safe for them? Well, I think that we
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: have to decide if we can put in place safe measures.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: This is why, and it's so important we pass the
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: American Rescue Plan. The American Rescue Plan is a plan
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: that is about getting our schools back open. Right, Doctor
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: Fauci is thing. Doctor Fauci was very clear he doesn't
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: think it should be a requirement for every teacher to
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: reopen schools. Listen to this. I think if you were
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: going to say that every single teacher needs to be
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: vaccinated before you get back to school, I believe, quite
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: frankly Tony, that that's a non workable situation. I think
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: teachers should absolutely be priority among those who we consider
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: essential personnel. But you don't want to essentially have nobody
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: in school until all the teachers get vaccinated. I mean
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: that makes sense, right, I don't know. I mean, well,
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: teachers I think should be vaccinated, you know, I mean
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: because you have all these students. They and these students
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: come in and a teacher could have it, and the
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: students bring it back home to their parents, and their
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: parents bring it to their grandparents. So yeah, I think
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: teachers absolutely should have to have to be vaccinated to
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: teach in school. I agree. Maybe I heard doctor, Maybe
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: I heard doctor FID, youre wrong. I thought that's what
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: he said. I agree. I think teachers should be vaccinated
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: because you know, they say that. I guess younger students
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: can't you know, get it, but they still it pass
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: it to the teachers. But I'm like, yo, let the
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: teachers get vaccinated. Teachers right, usually won't have as bad symptoms.
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: I actually spoke to it professor the other day who
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: got COVID from one of her students in the classroom
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: and then they shut the whole school down. All right, Well,
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: why aren't teachers considered essential workers? Shouldn't they be? Some places?
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: I think that they're doing it. In certain places they are,
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: And so some states are saying that, yes, they are
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: frontline workers, and some aren't. So states are making decisions
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: individually about who will be on the list that gets
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: vaccinated first. All right, and that is your front Page News.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: All right, thank you, miss ye. Now when we come back,
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: we have Erica Alexander join us in Whitney. Now. They
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: have a podcast with the name of the podcast well
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: you know it's yeah, it's Black History Muff and Black
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: History Muff is all about teaching and learning, you know,
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: all things black and one conversation that's been happening for
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: a long time in this country in the black community
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: as reparations and Yes. The podcast is called The Big
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: Payback and launches today on the Black Effect iHeartRadio podcast network,
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: and it's brought to you by Color Farm Media, hosted
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: by Erica Alexander in Whitney Now. So they were joining
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: us next, so we're kicking with the next and don't move.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club Morning.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy we
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. He got some special guests on
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: the line. We have Erica Alexander, who's been here several
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: times as welcome back system, and we also have Whitney Now,
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Good morning, sir, at you having me? What's up Whitney,
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: what's up Queen Erica. They're here to talk about reparations
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: now were never the big payback podcasts? Yes? How about that?
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: How about that? It's time has come? As time has come,
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: and we're happy to do it. Actually, it's been a
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: really good conversation but also a great education not only
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: into the history of America but also the history of
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: African Americans in America and the all the injustices from slavery.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: It's it's actually overwhelming. You can hear people saying, what
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: makes you and Whitney qualified to discuss reparation? And how
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: did you get this podcast started? Oh? Sure, okay, we'll
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: do both. I'll answer the second one. Indeed, we were
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: working on a documentary and it was about reparations, and
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: obviously you start to get some of the stars of
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: reparation to people that have been pioneers and people that
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: are in it and really qualified experts. And then something
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: extraordinary happened. There was an older woman in Evanston, Illinois.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: Her name is Robin Ruth Simmons, and she passed the
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: first reparations bill in American history in the four hundred
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: year meaning last year twenty nineteen, or I guess the
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: year before last, and did something that no one had
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: ever done. So they called her the Rosa Parks of Reparations,
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: and we started following her. We'd already been starting starting
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: to follow HR forty and it's sort of turgid moved
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: through Congress with Sheila Jackson Lee as she inherited it
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: from John Conyers. But why am I qualified? I'm black,
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: I'm African America. I didn't get qualified me to say
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: a little bit about reparations because I think i'm it.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: And the other thing is that I think I'm a
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: person who's curious enough to know that this is an
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: important issue, and I wanted to look at it from
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: a greater point of view, and the black effects said, yeah,
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: we'll do it. So there you go. And why are
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: you well, you know, first of all, I'm white, so
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: I guess I'm off by to pay it right. So
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: that's the first. The second thing, I've been making films
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: about racing difference, always with a cross race with partners,
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: and the more I started like making films and projects
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: about it, I always felt like there was this big
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: conversation left that or like, what is white people's role
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: in it? I know it's changed a lot in the
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: last few years, and so as I started digging into it,
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: and started really digging into all the all the different
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: ways that races impacting the country. I really come to
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: the point where just believe that a the racial division
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: in this country is the thing that's driving all the divisions,
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: and the fact that we've never had a reconciliation this
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: country is driving all the divisions, economic divisions, political dilivisions,
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: social divisions, and that until we deal with that, we're
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: not able to deal with anything. Now do you guys
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: think we'll ever see reparations in our lifetime? Honestly? You
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: know what, here's the problem. For thirty years, they've been
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: trying to have a discussion about reparations, not trying to
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: give it to us. That what HR forty is. It's
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: named after famously, the forty acres in the Mule, but
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: it's the House of Representation has this bill in front
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: of them and they can't even bring it in to
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: discuss it. And this is among people who a lot
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: of them want it. So I don't know if we're
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: going to actually get reparations. There's in pockets. But I
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: think that Robert ru Simmons might have something of a
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: blueprint because people are starting to talk about it locally,
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: so maybe that's the way it comes in. Can we
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: talk about that blueprint? Because when you hear reparations, everyone
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: has a different opinion on what reparations actually looks like.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: And I know you guys are exploring that on the podcast,
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: but from your own personal opinions, what do you think
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: is the best way that reparations should happen? Money I'm
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: just cash is kiding, but that's me think, yeah, check exactly.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: But you know, by the way, that's that's the conversation
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: of why the conversation or discussing it, or the analysis
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: and the diagnosis of it is so important because a
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: lot of people think that it's just about a check,
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: or it's only about a check or you know, and
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: that's so crude, it's kind of grotesque. The problem is
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: there's a pain and suffering of all these people. Millions
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: and millions of Africans die, and we weren't we denied citizenship,
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: We were denied all sorts of restitutions. They did experimentation
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: on a Tuskegee mass incarceration. These are all plagues among us.
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: So should it just be a check note? Should it
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: be a check? I absolutely we should leave. It should
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: because I think that money is power. No, Y, you
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: talk a lot about real estate, you talk about ownership
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: and part of owning it, I think for white people
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: who is paying and having, you know, an outright payment
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: for it. But there's programs, there's all sorts of things
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: that you come into play. There's the mental and health conversation.
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: There's so many things that are involved that it's going
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: to take I think, a mask or the program and
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: really the real experts to come and do it. But
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: I do think that money should be a part of
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: it because I think that that's how Americans and most
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: people human beings, wigh value. I'm afraid to give people
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: just money though, because if you give people just money
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: with no financial competency, no financial literacy, he's gonna get
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: it right back to the white man. Yeah, call somebody
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: called killer Mike. You're trying to you're trying to teach
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: us how to spit in our well. You know, Whitney.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: Do you think that you're gonna get it right back?
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: I'm hoping no. All right, now, you're gonna take then
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: out of your name, calling you whitey down. I got
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: one something that you asked you, Is it just money,
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: and I think, actually, I mean because I you know,
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: I taught eric and I have this you know, I'm
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: here to save white people too, because I feel that,
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: like it's not just about the money. But I acciltally
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: like that's like the baseline onsibility. I think one when
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: you ask me, is it going to happen? One of
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: the big things that has to happen. One reason why
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: why repreation hasn't happened. It's forced. It's going to force
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: white Americans to reimagine their own story. And that's the
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: existential threat to get white people to say, accept their history,
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: accept their legacy of being part of this white supremacist structure.
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: That's why people are storming the capital, not because that
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: they're thinking that they think that somehow the election was stolen,
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: but they're being told that, hey, the bills come due.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: This is the reality of the world and it's an
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: end for you know someone I did this project called
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: the Whiteness Project, where I talked to three hundred white
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: people out being white. It's an existential threat, Like to
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: accept that means I'm not who I think I am.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: All Right, we got more with Erica Alexander and Whitney
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: down from the Big Payback podcast and don't Move It's
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: to Breakfast Club go moaning moaning. Everybody is DJ Envy
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: Angela Yee. Charlomagne the guy we are to Breakfast Club
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: was still kicking in with Erica, Alexander and Whitney down
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: from the Big Payback podcast. Chellamone. One thing that intrigues
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: me about this this podcast A Big Payback is Whitney's perspectives.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: So I want to hear from both of y'all. You know, Erica,
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: you start, why was it important to include the perspective
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: of a white male in this conversation because it's their
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: death and it may not be the death that they say,
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: Oh I know. So if this is the conversation and
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: that most people say are they say, I wasn't there.
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: My ancestors did it, but I wasn't there. Why should
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: I paid? And said, well, you know, you can't say
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: that to the victims of Hiroshima, that you know, they're
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: deformed babies that come out years and years and years
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: after that bomb was dropped and the original victims are dead,
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: that they're not ongoing disfigurements. And so to me, the
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: disfigured position of African Americans is because of the historical
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: precedent of race and slavery in America. So you talk
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: about redlining, you talk about loans and how it's not
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: only difficult to get a decent loan, but also the
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: discrimination and the prejudice behind it. Talk about the women
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: that go missing all the time and nobody looks to them.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: They will launch a huge thing for for white women,
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: but not for Black people and black women. It goes
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: on and on and on, how many disparities that we
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: are vulnerable too. So it's white people's debt, they should
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: pay it, but it's America's debt. They don't have to
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: worry about paying. Let the federal government pay it, because
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: that's their debt. They're the ones who paid it to
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: the Japanese. They're the ones who started it. Now they
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: don't officially call reparations to the Native Americans. Millions of
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: acres of land, billions of dollars. It's their debt and
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: it's our debt as Americans to make sure that African
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: American descendants are considered and more properly. This huge apology
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: has to do with an acknowledgement that they've done something
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: to a specific population in America. But who apologize you?
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: Is it their president? Is it you know, who do
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: we get this apology from? Which had a couple go ahead,
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: but there's already been an apology, right, And I think
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: the sen and voted for apology, but they said, let's
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: just be clear, this apology can't be used for reparations.
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, there's like what you know, it wasn't a
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: true apology. But I do think it's the federal government
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: created the system. The federal government created all great the
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: structures to like impress black people. It's a federal government
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: responsibility to make that better. But I want to answer
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: something that you said, you know, Charlie, about why white
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: people and it's like it is our death, and it's
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: like it's our responsibility to clean it up. It's like
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: when your kids mess up that makes it up, you
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: make them clean it up. And I really feel that
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: it's that until white people acknowledge that they can't really behold,
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: they can't be full Americans, they can't be part of
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: this community. So what I really hope that this worked,
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: but this podcast does, and is that I have few
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: my role, my job. There's lots of black voices out there,
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: But I want to create white ears who can hear them,
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: and I feel like sometimes I can be the interpreter.
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: Is that you know how it is like white people
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: and black people speak, they don't hear them, They don't
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: want to hear them, and so they pretend they can't
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: hear them. But you know, someone like me perhaps can
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: be the interpreter and allow them to come to the project,
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: like let's come to the podcast with open minds and
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: hear it differently than if we're just rat How do
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: you determine who gets reparations? Because I see that argument
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: also going on, and that's an interesting one for me.
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: So who determines that? What if you know your mixed,
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: like just so many different things about reparations, So how
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: do you determine that? Well, I know I gets it,
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: you know it, I gets it right now that that
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: by the way, if you look at ATOS and some
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: of the leaders in that movement, they believe that it
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: should solely be descendants of African American slaves. Now it's
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: hard to determine who that is right now, but I
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: think it's pretty clear. You know, let me put it
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: to you, like this Obama don't get it Okay, I
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: don't think Kammaly gets it. You know, if you really
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: start to look at where they come from, she might
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: have to ask for restitution from Jamaica, baby go to
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: you know, her mother's East Indian. Of obviously, Obama is
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: from Kenya and his mother is Kenazine. But Michelle Obama
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: gets it. Her children gets it because they have the
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: blood of slaves running through them. From her side, I
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: think that one of those things that we get hung
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: up on is who gets it. But the truth is
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: America gets it because what happens is when you eat,
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: when you start to really compensate African Americans, and it
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: goes into side of their community. It lifts all those people.
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: Poor whites are in this conversation partly because of the
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: historical damage done to African Americans. But you know, we
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: shouldn't look at obviously, Angela yee, you're mixed, and you
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: know somebody might look at Indians say look how light
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: he is. He don't get it, but probably his lights him.
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, oh really, Well, I don't know if you
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: gets it, you might have to, you know, throw some dice. Brother. Look,
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: But I just believe that it's a conversation about that
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: we got to find the people. But I think that
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: overall we can figure out where to put that money
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: in those programs Erica and Whitney. Can we achieve true
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: equality in America without reparations with some form? I don't
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: think so now. I mean it's because reparations is about
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: it means repair right, repairs the relationship. And I don't
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: think you can have true equality until you really, until
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: you acknowledge you're wrong, you you repair that relationship. But
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: then it's also the question, shan Man, is what is
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: true equality? Sometimes I get to the point it's like
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: do you actually need that? Do you mean? Do you
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: just take it? You know what I'm saying, Like, what
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: is what does that actually mean to to to achieve
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: true equality? Does that mean that we're all color blinds?
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: We have this? It's hard to understand the question. I
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: work a lot of Haiti and there's always like Haiti
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: gonna change? Is Haiti gonna change? Like change to what Jamaica? Bahamas?
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: Like what do you think it's? What do you have
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: you been to Haiti? Like what do you want it
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: to be? In some ways it's a really cool place
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: because it's not totally owned by the cruising Just Street
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: and it's kind of this unique spot in the world.
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: So you say that, so it's hard to know what
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: actually true quality needs. Yeah, I always say I don't
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: even know if we can ever achieve civil rights in
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: this country because it's not civil rights that I think
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: the problem is. I think it's human rights. They just
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: don't look at black people is humans. How could we
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: ever did with the civil aspect of it if we
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: don't even deal with our regular human rights? True? You know,
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: Reverend Barbera calls this our market, this time period as
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: the third Reconstruction, So I think that means this is
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: the time to rebuild American's foundation as it should have
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: been built since reconstruction. And he knows that's not possible
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: without looking at the moral monetary obligation as he calls it,
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: towards the least of these. And he doesn't just stop
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: at African Americans. He includes poor whites, he includes people
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: of color. Includes this because of the continuation of Reverend
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: doctor Martin Luther King's Poor People's Campaign, which talked about
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: usion politics uniting marginalized communities. But that recipe includes the
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: advancement and the implementation of reparation towards descendants of enslave Africans.
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: I believe, like climate change. You're talking about climate change,
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: it's an urgent call. We need to save the planet
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: for human beings. But I believe this is our last
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: chance to create America for all Americans, not just as
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: it was meant to be meeting the Founder's minute, to
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: be for white American men, but as it should be.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: Do you and Whitney bump heads on certain things, but
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: we hear that on the podcast, you know, and it's
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: about usually about emotion. I get emotional about things. I
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: cry very easily because I realized that there's a lot
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: of anger that I have suppressed. I'm frustrated. You know,
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: so many people would ask me, have I am I
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: the angry black woman? And I used to say no.
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: I used to be offended, and I realized, I'm so
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: freaking angry. I don't know what to do. I'm angry
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: a lot of the times, and so it comes out
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: in these conversations. I didn't understand what my mother was
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: talking about. What she always talked about white people, white people.
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: She was angry because she couldn't get past their barriers,
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: and she was so deserved. She worked so hard. Again,
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: I always say my were orphans. They had no help
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: in a familiar way. They had to do it with
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: just bearing down, willfully determination, try to get education. And
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: she couldn't get a job after she got her master's
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: one semester's from a doctorate and she was fifty years old.
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: So I look at Whitney. He's a Columbia, he's a
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: professor from Columbia. He's got a beautiful family, and I
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: don't I don't think he shouldn't have those things. I'm
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: happy for him. I'm also mad that he has those things.
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: I work hard, but it's not hard enough to get
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: past my skin color a gender, certainly not my skin color.
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: And so yes, be bump heads, because I sometimes I'll
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: be honest to take out on him, but I can't
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: take out on the world as you should. Thank you,
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: whitey down. You're talking about Charlin here, just got him
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: white down down? Yes, yes, do you feel like that?
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: I do that with me because we I mean, he argued.
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: If we do argue, we've had you know, look, we're
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: kind of working out for a couple of years, and
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: I think what's interesting about is that you can have
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: like shared goals with different motivations. So we're trying to
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: get to the same destination. So we're locked in nets.
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: We're locked in mission, but we kind of had different
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: missions and we had different roads that we're traveling along at.
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: But look, it's complicated because we live in different realities
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: and so yeah, we you know, I think that that
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: going into it. When I first met Erica, I was like,
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: I was very skilled. I don't know if I want
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: to work with this woman. She's an actress, movie star guy.
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: I'm like, this guy, documentary filmmaker, works in the basement.
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: I don't know if this is a good deal of it.
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: And I said, Erica, I don't if this is gonna work.
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: We feel like she said, Whitney, you think I survived
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: in Hollywood for thirty years without don't how to handle
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: white people like you. I was like, I can work
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: with that. Well. The Big Payback Podcast check it out
• 46:49

• 47:16
  Speaker 1: It's about angela ye, the breakfast clubs. So doctor Dre's
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: strange wife, Nicole Young, has fouled documents. She wants the
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: court to let her get access to their marital home
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: because she has some personal belongings there. And get this,
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: She's saying that she's observed several different women posting photos
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: and videos inside the house and some of them might
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: be wearing her stuff. Can you imagine that you are
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: separated and then you see videos of people wearing your
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: chanel slides or whatever it is that you some of
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: the belongings that you left. She also says that she
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: has a closet with twenty four coats and a cedar
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: and temperature control environment and she wants to go and
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: get those because if he packs up her stuff and
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: puts it in storage, that would be catastrophic for her furs.
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: They have to remain in that temperature control closet. Rich
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: people problems exactly? People wear furs in Lato? Is it
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: that cold? Probably? Sometimes, I guess at night, and you
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: know how the temperature drops at night. I guess she
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: just has travels. You just said it's rich people problems, right,
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: Rich people do rich things. If I want to wear
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: a fur in seventy degree weather, let me wear my
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: fur and seventy degree weather, Okay, cold out in sixty degrees,
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: put on and callie. All right. Well April Jones who
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: people are saying the rumor is that she's been dating
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: doctor Dre because they were photographed out together going to dinner.
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: She recently did an interview and she was talking to
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: Madame Noir and she was talking about why she was
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: on Love and hip Hop. She said, the whole situation
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: with me and Oh on Love and Hip Hop was
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: completely controlled. As far as on Marion, she said, I
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: never even wanted to freaking reality TV. His management thought
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: it would be good for him to show who he
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: was in his life because they were gay rumors, so
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: the show he was in a relationship with a woman
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: and having kids and all that. They thought it would
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: be great. If you love somebody, you're going to do it.
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: But I just felt very controlled. I wasn't really myself.
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: On top of that, I was pregnant both times, so
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: I was really not myself. And when I came out
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: of that relationship which was fully effing controlled, and it
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: was a lot going on. I was like, oh my god,
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: I totally lost myself in that. Managers and publicians come
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: up with the most stupid ideas. But you know what
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, because sometimes because sometimes you just gotta let
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: people believe what they believe, let them think what they think.
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: If you're not gay, who cares? If you're not gay
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: and you know you're not gay, who cares? Right? But
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: she stayed on the show after that, so you know,
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: she's saying it was controlled and she didn't want to
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: do it, and I don't know, go ahead, all right?
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: Donald Glover has signed an eight figure deal with Amazon Studio,
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: so they're saying he has left the Disney owned effects
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: for Amazon Studios. They're saying he secured that deal which
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: includes a prime video channel that will highlight his work
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: as well as other curated content. So they have not
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: yet confirmed the details at Amazon Studios, but insiders are
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: saying he'll executive produce a number of projects under that deal,
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: including a potential series called Hive Dope. What did that
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: mean for Atlanta? Under contract for that So it's not
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: going to affect Atlanta that's been renewed for two more seasons,
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: so he'll figure. You know, I'm sure that's carved out
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: for him to finish his contract deal that he has
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: with FX for Atlanta. But they do expect that Atlanta
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: will resume in the upcoming months, with season three perhaps
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: premiering later this year. Look at him, man, that's amazing,
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: all right, um meek Mill. People are upset about his lyrics.
• 50:50
  Speaker 1: It's a song with little Baby that he has and
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: he references Kobe Bryant, and not in a positive manner.
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: Listen to this, and if I ever let him going
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: out with my travel to be a novel Kobe the
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: shot could tell that they never know me because if
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: they knew me, they would have never showed me. Who's
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: about some money? Sweety to be lonely? Because at home,
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: I know'll never show me. I made the promise before.
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: Gone don't want another hope me. So he said, I'm
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: going out what my chopper like Kobe Chopper. He said,
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: if I ever lack, I'm going out with my chopper
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: would be another Kobe ish. I can tell they ain't
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: never know me. That's what he said. He's talking about
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: the un Actually it's like, what do you call it
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: a double one hundra? Yeah, the Chopper and the Chopper.
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: I just that hurt my heart because I just thought
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: about how his wife with Phil and daughters and people
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: close to him like making a joke about it. I
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: mean a pun in music about the Chopper and Kobe.
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: It's painful. I mean, yeah, it is, but you know,
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: and I thought the line was whacking, this tasteful, but
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: it's rap music, like the rapper. Yeah, rappers have been saying, wow,
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: it has you know, stuff like that. You know, I
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: guess it adds to the shock value of hip hop.
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: But you know, personally, I know I would be standing
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: on really shaky moral ground to criticize me too much,
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: especially with the stuff we let slide on the regular. Like, yes,
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: Kobe was beloved, so that's probably why it hit home.
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: The accident was tragic, and personally, I don't see why
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: people play with folks death like that. But it's it's rap.
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: I just think about Vanessa Brian and she's even said like,
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: I can't please do not post any tribute to about
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: Like she's been asking people please don't post this, please
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: don't do that. We're still grieving. True, but what about Okay,
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: what about a line like when Eminem says when when
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: the concert? The bombing happened at the Ariana Grande concert
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: and he said, I'm contemplating yelling bombs away on the
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: game like I'm outside and Ariana Grande concert. People died
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: in that. Yeah, yeah, and people were outraged about that.
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: People have been doing it for a long time. I
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: mean there's LUNs with Hove doing it, there's LUNs with
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: and like you said, Eminem doing it is I'm sure.
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: I'm sure Fab might have said a line. There's something
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: similar when when to talk about like that. That's how
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: the Columbine lines. I think you also have to know
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: when they do something like that, you know it is
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: going to affect people, and people are going to have
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: an issue with it. I mean, in your head you
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: have to say, if I say this, I know there's
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: going to be some backlash. There's no question. Absolutely little
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: way said I like this has happened so many times
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: out and apologize. Yeah. I just feel like I would
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: be standing on really shaky moral ground to criticize me,
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: because it'd be hypocrisy because it's so much stuff that
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: we let slide on the regular. All right, now their body.
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: Have you guys ever used that they're a gun? No,
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: it's like a massage gun. Yeah, yeah, local because he
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: plays football. But yeah, all right. Well, in their latest
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: round of investing, their Body is a company that makes
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: They're a Gun. They got us a lot of support
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: for more than one hundred names in sports, business, culture
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: and entertainment, people like Kevin Durant, Rihanna, Russell, Wilson, Sierra.
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: All of these people have now in vested in their Body.
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: They said, their Body is at the forefront of incredible
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: opportunities in the wellness space, and we look forward to
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: seeing what else they're going to accomplish. So they tripled
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: its overall revenue since twenty seventeen. The company has one
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: hundred and twenty six patterns globally and another one hundred
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: and thirty eight pending, and they have their products and
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: approximately ten thousand stores around the world. A lot of
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: support there. All right, Well that is your rumor report.
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: All right, thank you, miss ye charlemagn Who are you
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: giving that donkey too? Oh man? We need a Texas
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: marrit named Tim Boyd to come to the front of
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: the congregation like This ain't rap. You know what I'm saying,
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: the wild distasteful stuff that Tim Boyd said, This ain't rap.
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: We'll talk about it for after the hour, all right,
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: we'll get you that next it's the breakfast Club. Good
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: Morning's time for Donkey of the Day. I'm a Democrat,
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: so being Donkey of the day a little bit of
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: a mixed day. Now, I've been called a lot in
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: my twenty three years. That Donkey of the Bay is
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: a new wife. Yes, donkey here today for Thursday, February eighteenth,
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: goes to Texas Mayor Tim Boyd. Tim Boyd is, or
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: should I say, was, the mayor of Colorado City. Before
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: I tell you what he did, let me tell you
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: the backstory. We all are in our own worlds here
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: on this planet, so some of us may not be
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: familiar with what's going on in Texas right now, but
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: a deadly and record breaking winter storm has left much
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: of the state without power. This week, I saw a
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: good brother, Trade the true shop clus to trade the truth.
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: I saw him post that people are sleeping in cars
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: and dying due to carbon monoxide poisoning, and Trade pointed
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: out something that is clearly ringing true. Because Trade said,
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: and I quote, the problem for us is the people
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: who in positions of power in Texas felt the money
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: was more important. How the f government and politicians allowed
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: us and allowed Arcot to f us over. Arcott is
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: the electric Ability Counsel of Texas. By the way, they
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: operate the electric grid for seventy five percent of the state.
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: From what I read now, people in Texas have gone
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: without powerful our food for three days, says Trey. So
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: really serious situation happening in Texas, you know what I mean?
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: Prayers are for everybody in Texas. Who do people turn
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: to in times like this? Who helps folks in situations
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: like this? Because the Avengers of fictional characters, so is
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: a justice league. I would love for wand to create
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: an alternate reality in Texas right now where they are
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: not being hit with a winter storm. But that's not reality. Okay,
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: this isn't a Marvel Disney Plus TV show. In times
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: like this, the people that are supposed to help are
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: the elected officials, the public servants we put into office
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: to protect, provide, and serve our communities. So we think
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: I literally said to you in the six am hour
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: in regard to Joe Biden not wanting to cancel student loan.
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: That I don't care if it's Republican a Democrat. They
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: don't care about helping anyone except the rich and elite. Okay,
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: that always comes for us in this country. These operations
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: will get bailouts, but the people will starve. It never
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: fails in this situation in Texas is no different. Keep
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: in mind what I said about Texas. Okay, keep in
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: mind what Trade said about Texas. Deadly win it's done.
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: Trade to Truth said, elders and babies are dying from
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: carbon monoxide poisoning because they have to sleep in their cars.
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: Folks haven't eaten or had power in three days, says
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: Trade to Truth. And the mayor of Colorado City, Texas,
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: Tim boy the mayor had this to say, Let's go
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: to KRBCNBC nine for the report. Police. The strong will
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: survive and the week will perish. Harsh words from Colorado
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: City Mayor Tim Boyd as residents continue to fight the cold.
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: Mitchell County Judge Mark Merrill says the area husband struggling
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: to keep water and some electricity on since Monday, and
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: as many in the county look for help, Colorado City's
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: mayor says, don't look to him, quoting it's not the
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: local government's responsibility to support you during trying times like this,
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: sink or swim, it's your choice. Colorado City's Maorhouse was signed,
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: but others say the city is still working to step
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: up and keep residents warm during the storm. I'm gonna
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: be honest with you. That news report didn't you know
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: do it didn't give what Tim Boyd wrote any real justice,
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: Like they really watered what he said down. Let me
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: read it for you. Okay, this is Tim Boyd verbatim raw.
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: I'm not putting no sauce on this. I will read
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: you Tim Boyd's old statement in full. Let me hurt
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: some feelings while I have a minute. No one owes
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: you or your family anything, nor is it the local
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: government's responsibility to support you during trying times like this.
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: Sink or swim is short choice. The city and county,
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: along with power providers or any other service, owes you
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: nothing in capital letters. I'm sick and tired of people
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: looking for a damn handout with an exclamation mark. If
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: you don't have electricity, you step up and come up
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: with a game plan to keep your family warm and safe.
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: If you have no water, you deal without and think
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: outside of the box to survive and supply water to
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: your family. If you are sitting at home in the
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: cold because you have no power and are sitting there
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: waiting for someone to come rescue you because you're lazy,
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: it's a direct result that you're raising. Only the strong
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: will survive and the weak will parish. Folks, God has
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: given us the two to support ourselves in times like this.
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: This is sadly a product of a socialist government where
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: they feed people to believe that the fuel will work
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: and others will become dependent for handouts. Am I sorry
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: that you have been dealing without electricity and water? Yes?
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: I can't tell, Tim, but I'll be damned if I'm
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: gonna provide for anyone that is capable of doing it themselves.
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: We have lost sight of those in need and those
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: that take advantage of the system and mess them into
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: one group. Bottom line, quit crying and looking for a handout,
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: Get off your ass and take care of your own family.
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: End quote Tim boy that I need you to shut
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: the f up forever, all right. These are the folks
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: who are and leadership positions in America. How can you
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: say power providers or any other service owes the people nothing.
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: Of course they do. They owe the people power and
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: good service. That's what they pay for every month. You
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: know what happens if a regular, everyday citizen tells the
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: power company, I owe you nothing, the power company will say,
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: oh word, and they will cut off that person's power.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: See the reason this mayor thinks the power company doesn't
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: owe the people anything is because he knows the people
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: need the power companies more than the companies need the people.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: The people have no choice but to have power, and
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 1: the man owes this, and that's why he's flexing on
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 1: his constituents in this manner. The mayor said, he's sick
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: and tired of people looking for a handout. Sir, this
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: was a storm. This winter storm is an act of God.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: Folks are in distress. They need help. If my house
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: is on fire and I called a fire department to
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: come put it out, that's not me asking for a handout.
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: That's me, as a taxpaying citizen utilizing resources that I
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: help pay for. For you to tell those residents in Texas,
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: if you don't have electricity, you don't have water, to
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: come up with a different game plan to keep your
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: family warm and safe, to think outside of the box
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: to survive. Tim Boyd, tell me your plan. I bet
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: you got water, I bet you got electricity. I bet
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: you got food. Meanwhile, you're on Facebook talking down on
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: the people you're supposed to be serving, sounding like you're
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: quoting the hook of huh by juvenile. You told the
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: residents of Texas you know what it is. You make
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: nothing out of something. You handle your bins and don't
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: be crying and suffering if you don't get your human
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: jar helmet's head ass up out of here. I hate
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: when people chastise folks for problems that the people they
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: chastised and didn't create. You called these people lazy, as
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: if they created this snowstorm, as if they put themselves
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: in these positions. You blame their present condition on the
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: way they were raised. Okay, you might be right, because
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 1: a lot of these people weren't born privileged. Okay. They
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: were raised in the poverty, all right, grew up they
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: were raised pouring disenfranchise okay, and because of socioeconomic conditions
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: of this country, they just simply haven't been able to rise.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: Because a good old boys like Tim Boyd, systemically keeping
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: their foot on folks. Next, that is the American way,
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, Okay, the American way. It's systemically oppressed
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: and marginalized folks. And then when the most vulnerable, vulnerable
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: among us is exposed by situations like this, situations that
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: are out of their control, the people in positions of
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: power of victim blame instead of taking accountability what you
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: and your piss poor administration, Tim Boyd is clearly not doing. Now.
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: Of course the post was deleted. Tim received backlash or
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: he gave us the mandatory fake apology after things like
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: this happened. Let me read it. I would never want
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: to hurt the elderly or anyone that is in true
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: need to help, to be left to fend for themselves.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: I was only making a statement that those folks that
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: are too lazy to get up and find for themselves,
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: but are capable, should not be dealt a hand out.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: I apologize for the wording and some of the phrases
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: that were used. Once again, Tim, shut the f up forever.
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: It's an act of God. You do realize that an
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: act of God can bring anyone to their knees. Rich
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: Paul black White. It doesn't matter, Tim, you and your
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: family to be in that position one day, just like
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: that snap of thin no stump, okay, earthquakes, her queen's blizzards.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: They don't give a damn about your financial status. They
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: will take your home right out and then what we're
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: gonna tell you to get it? How you live, just
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: like you did those families in their time of need.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: Now Tim Boyd has resigned, which I'm shocked about. Usually
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: the privilege to let us among us just say the
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: hell with y'all. I said what I said, but he
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: resigned and his wife got fired for his comments. See,
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 1: knowing when to open your mouth and when to keep
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: it shut is valuable wisdom. Tim, you should have kept
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 1: the lid on the Mayonnaid's jaw aka your mouth. All right?
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: Please let Chelsea Handler give Tim Boyd the biggest he
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 1: haw he haw he haw. That is way too much.

  Speaker 1: Is Sean Tell? Hey, Sean Tell? What's your question for you? Um?
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 1: I've been with my boyfriend now for eight years. Ye
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: have two children together, and like any young couple, we've
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: been off and on, you know, we've had our problems,
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: but more recently with this last love town we made,
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: we were doing good. Everything I needed was being you know,
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: Matt communication, our goals was in wine and then I
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 1: don't nowhere. Back in September, I went through his phone
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: and I think that he was entertaining females on social
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: media through Yes. I mean like really, you know, just
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: doing the most. Like one girl was begging her to
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: cut him back on. I was just confused, like what
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: did she cut you out of? But anyway, we talked
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: about it. Nothing was physical, and that's fine. I was
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: like willing to move on. Nothing I came across and
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: made it seemed like he was getting down with anybody,
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: So I was like, okay, I gave when we talked
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 1: about it, and I taught him there. I said, you
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: know this, I'm not gonna keep going through this. I'm
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 1: too old. I got too much going on to be going.
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: I feel like this is childish if that's where you
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: want to be leading me off, you know. So that
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: was in September. Out of nowhere, Here we go February
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: team he fasted out, drunks. I go through his phone
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: and now he's been sneaky about it. He's actually still
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: conversating with these females, but he's deleting it and to
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 1: show it's fun. Wow, that's embarrassing. Hey, this is crazy
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: because I want to say a few things here. You
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: guys have been off and on. It probably feels like
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: to him, y'all will go through it, but you're always
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: going to be back together with him. So he can
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: kind of do him because you ain't going nowhere. It's
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: been eight years, you have two kids together, So he's
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: not concerned about that at all. Secondly, all his friends
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: know what he's doing. That's embarrassing. Now you gotta be
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: around them. I gotta see you, you gotta be and
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: you always think, oh, his friends is laughing at me
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: because they know what he's doing behind my back. They
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: know he don't even take me seriously family, right, so
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 1: everybody knows. So now you feel like boo boo the fool. Yeo,
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: I listen, he loved me and he there's nothing. But
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 1: I guess my question is, is Hill's flirting? I mean,
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 1: to me, it's it's working. I'm not willing to put
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: out with it. But is that? Is that now what
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 1: twenty one is about? Like, it is not, and there
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: is no way you should be excusing his behavior as
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 1: just flirting or this is what twenty twenty one is about.
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 1: Don't let him convince you that, okay, because that is
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: dead wrong. He's out here seeking validation and who knows
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 1: if this will lead to something physical, because if not,
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: what's the point of him even doing that? Does he
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 1: feel like it makes him feel attractive? Is it good
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 1: for his ego? What is it that you feel like?
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: Am I not doing what he needs me to do
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 1: for this relationship to work? And is completely disrespectful? Yeah?
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: So I just think that you know, y'all have been
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: through a lot, Like you said, you've been off and on.
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: Y'all been together for eight years and he's still not
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 1: taking it seriously. What do you need to do for yourself?
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: Because don't you want to be in a relationship where
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: you're not going through someone's phone where you don't even
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: have to think like that? Yes? I do. And I've
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: never been that type. I've never been a jealous type.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 1: I've never been to go through a phone type. He
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 1: never even gave me any clue, but I had to
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: do that. It was really like, I'm just so you
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: all like, and then I became that person. Yeah, And
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: I do think when you realize you're not who you
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: are in a relationship, then that means things aren't going well.
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: When I'm acting out a character and I'm like, why
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 1: am I feeling jealous? Why am I feeling like I
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: got to go through his phone? Why am I feeling insecure?
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: That's not a good sign. So he needs to get
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 1: some help he needs to do. You need to decide
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: what it is you have to tell him he needs
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: to do. And in the meantime, I feel like you
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: have to realize that we are not in a committed
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: relationship until you can fulfill these goals. And I just
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: can't see it working until he does what he needs
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: to do and you feel more comfortable, and that's going
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 1: to take time. Is he willing to step up to
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 1: the plate to do that, though, is the question. So
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: you need to figure out what I have to tell him. Well,
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: tell him what it is specifically that he needs to
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: do to make you feel comfortable. And if that means
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: making his account private, if that means that you have
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: access to his account so you can see what he's doing,
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: whatever it is that you need, don't let him tell
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: you know. And if he's not willing to do those things,
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: that he's not willing to save your relationship. Okay, thank you,
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 1: all right, you're welcome, girl. I wish you so much luck.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: I do hope things work out for you. Guys. But
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 1: he has to make the most effort right now because
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: you can't trust him. And once that trust is broken,
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 1: no one wants to live in a relationship where they're
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: always second guessing everything. When he leaves the house, who
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 1: is he on the phone with? Why it's his phone
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: turned upside down? M? I mean he always in his fall,
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: always is glued in his hand, in his face, and
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: then he's my kind of look over he go, you know,
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: basketball related, M. You know right, all right, Well, sounds
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: like you're a good woman, but you can't keep holding
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: down somebody that's doing things like that and embarrassing you
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: and being disrespectful. Yeah, thank you, You're welcome, good luck,
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: all right? Ask ye eight hundred five eight five one

  Speaker 1: ask ye, Hello, who's this? This small from? What's up? Yo?
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 1: So what's your question for you? So basically, I got
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: I got a thought pregnant and I don't want to
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: know liked do our Steward do our group? You got
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: a woman pregnant and you don't know if you should
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: stay with her? Do you want to be with her?
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: I mean, she a good girl whatever, but she so
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: being around So I don't know what I don't want
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: to do. So you're trying to say in the past,
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: she's got a lot of bodies, but that bothers you, now,
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 1: I mean from me, I ain't planning to get her pregnant,
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 1: but he all right, let's take the pregnancy out of this.
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: Is this somebody that you would want to be with? No? No,
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 1: really why not? Because is like from me, I'm funny
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: for I'm living okay, So you just not ready to
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: be in a relationship. It has nothing to do with
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: her past. You just said she's a good girl. But
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 1: she's been around for me, for me, so your heart
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: refuse a love? So what she did? What about you?
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: Have you been around? You feel me? But that's a
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: double stairs of the life bore like you know, you
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: supposed to get around, you know, like, oh, so you're
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: saying it's okay for you, but it's not okay for her.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: It's definitely okay for me. I'm a god, It's like
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: a woman is is what? Oh? No, what I'm supposed
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: to And I'm not ridiculous to you. So you could
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: do whatever you want in the past. But when she
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: was single and mingling, that was it. That's an issue
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: now even though it's in her past and you said
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 1: she's a good girl. You know, if you're real confident
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: in yourself and securing who you are, it should not
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 1: matter what anybody thinks about your girl. True, true, But no,
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: I understand, I understand. I'm man for advice. I'm listening.
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 1: So if you want to be with this woman, you
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 1: want to at least give the relationship a chance, then
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 1: you do that because you said she's a good girl.
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: If you don't let what other people might think about
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: your girl bother you. It should only matter what you
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 1: think about your girl. And if you now if she
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: treats you well, if she's great to you. Man, you
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 1: got her pregnant, take care of your responsibility. You can't
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 1: take the pregnancy out of this, and you better be
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 1: a good father because now he is gonna be It's
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 1: not about that he's asking if he should be with her.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 1: That is what it's about. It's about taking care of
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 1: that child. You can take care of your child and
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: not be together. You don't have to be with somebody
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 1: just because you go to him. You told him take
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: the pregnancy out of if you can't in this situation,
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. What I'm saying is if his question
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 1: is does he want to be with her or not,
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: you're not. You don't stay with somebody just because they're pregnant.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: You can still be a father of his responsibilities. But
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying is if you want to be with her,
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: it's not about whether she's pregnant that you want to
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: be with her. It's about whether or not you want
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 1: to be with her. Yes, still be your father, still
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 1: handle your responsibilities, but you're not for should be number
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 1: one one. I'm so you feel me. So it's like,
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 1: you know, people look down on that she's not on
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: the same playe. But tom is you know what I mean, Like,
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 1: I'll be having a coach and father. You're saying, so,
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 1: so yeah, I'm so you're hustling as a as a
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 1: street hustler, or you just hustle like you get money.
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 1: I mean like, yeah, I'm getting money both both way, Okay,
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 1: And I'm sure people judge you for that, right Yeah,
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 1: but you know I live in know bros. It's like
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 1: it's like it's like, I don't know, there's no judgment.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: Once you're getting money, It's like, damn, at least you
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: gotta take care of your kid regardless. You gotta take
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 1: care of your kid regardless, And you have to have
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 1: a relationship with the mom, whether you want to be
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: with her or not. You have to have a great
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 1: relationship for your child. You laid down with that woman
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 1: and things happen, and now you gotta be a man man. Uh,
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 1: I think, yeah. The first thing is, of course are
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 1: you planning. You are planning to take care of your child, right,
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 1: That wasn't the question. I mean, yeah, of course I
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: take care of my child, take care of my bam me.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: I'm the one who play everybody, but you know I
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: play the building. It's on me, put the food on
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: the table and all that. You just don't know if
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: you want to wife her, it's all it's crazy. Yeah,
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 1: I think take your time. All you can do is
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 1: to make sure is make sure that she has a
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 1: safe pregnancy. Just be good and be there for her
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: throughout her pregnancy so the baby is safe and healthy
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 1: and you can work on your relationship and decide. You
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 1: don't got to make that decision right now as far
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: as whether you guys are co parenting or in a relationship.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: But I think you know, just handle your responsibilities as
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 1: a father and then you guys will decide in time.
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: But don't judge her based off of her past. Her
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 1: past is you know, it's cliche, but your past is
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: what makes you who you are today. She wouldn't be
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 1: the person that she is right now that you say
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 1: is a good girl if she hadn't done the things
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 1: that she would have done in her past and lived
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: her life and you and you add it to her
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 1: body count. You know she had a lot of bodies
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 1: before you slept with her. You got her pregnant. Take
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 1: care of your responsibilities. She's filling the team. This is
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: the Rumor Report with Angela Ye on the Breakfast Club. Well,
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: Tammy Roman posted a video of herself and she's very emotional.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: She's in Atlanta working. She said her house into and
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 1: Texas is destroyed. Here's what you had to say. I'm
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 1: siding me my trailer, just trying to keep it together
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 1: because I know I gotta go and perform today. Like
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: everything is okay, everything open. Work is so hard for
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 1: thee My children just hurted away in an instant and
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 1: I know everybody it's going through something. But I just
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 1: wanted to offer prayers up for you in your situation.
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 1: That's horrible. M Yeah. So um. You can watch her
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: full statement on Instagram now. Kanye, according to reports, is
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 1: not doing well amidst to split from Kim Kardashian. So
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 1: some people that they would get back together, but it
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: looks like it's not happening. A source told People magazine.
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 1: He's anxious and very sad. He knows the marriage is
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: over and there's nothing that can be done right now.
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 1: He also knows what he is losing in Kim. She
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: has defended him privately to her family. She has stopped
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 1: beside him at a time where a few wives, where
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 1: a few wives would have done that. There is very
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 1: little hope of reconciliation. It would have to be a miracle,
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 1: but Kanye does believe in miracles. It feels like this
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 1: source is the Kardashian. Yeah, it definitely seems like I
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 1: would say, no matter what happens in anybody's family, especially
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: your wife, it doesn't matter what happened that that will
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 1: hurt you. That'll put you into an adult place if
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 1: you ever think about losing your family or losing your wife.
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 1: So I get it. I understand completely. Yeah, that's your
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 1: that's your wife, that's the mother of your kids. It's like,
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 1: you know, who wants to live like that? You know
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 1: what I mean? Who wants to live without without a wife?
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 1: By the inside. Gotta go see the same. Insiders said,
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 1: Kim doesn't want to hurt him. She just knows she
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: can't be married to him anymore. He's very aware that
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 1: she's been a good wife. He still loves her very much,
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: but he understands. Chris, we can see you. We can
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 1: see you, Chris. Okay. Now, Another source, I don't know
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 1: if it's the same source told E News exclusively that
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 1: while Kim and Kanye's relationship may be nearing its end,
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 1: their kids do remain the top priority and that he
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: can see his children whenever he wants. And they said
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 1: she's moving on and having a lot of fun. At
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 1: this stage in her life, she feels like she is
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 1: already divorced. And they are at a standstill currently, and
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 1: neither of them are pushing to make their split official
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 1: at this point in time. There's no rush for paperwork
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 1: to be finalized. Okay, Chris just passed the phone to Kim.
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 1: That was Kim, just now, So Chris Chris Kim, and

• 1:20:52

• 1:20:55
  Speaker 1: on the Black Effect iHeartRadio podcast network available everywhere you
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 1: listen to podcasts now, and the conversation is about what
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 1: black people are old economically in this country. And yesterday

  Speaker 1: we had a shot in Troy on from the Earn
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 1: Your Leisure podcast talking about, you know, financial literacy and
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 1: in the black community, financial empowerment because financial freedom might
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 1: be our only hope. Okay, and doctor Claude Anderson has
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 1: been on the forefront of that conversation forever. If you've
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 1: never read Power Nomics, his book, you need to because
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 1: he describes black economic empowerment as building a proverbial structure
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: with multiple floors. Let's listen to when he was on
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 1: The Breakfast Club breaking it down. The Breakfast Club presents
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 1: a new Black History Month legend. This is my power
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: Nomics plan. I'm giving you the power and I'm playing
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 1: out one I gave you about the social construct. The
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 1: second thing I want you to do is the man
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 1: that there'll be a permanent office for made Black Affairs
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 1: established in the White House, which means any asia goals down.
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 1: You got a piece of person sitting there with where
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: the president is that I saw dictating what your needs
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 1: are and what kind of what your resources needs are.
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 1: That's the second thing. The third thing I want you
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: to be able to demand that black now that we
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: have a I have a power nomics plan for setting
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 1: up jobs in the United States for black vote. I
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 1: want them to build a southern high speed rail system
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 1: in the South that would run from Atlanta, Georgia to Dallas, Texas.
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 1: It'll run at one hundred and fifty miles an hour,
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 1: take you from Atlanta, Georgia to Dallas, Texas. That you
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 1: build businesses around those centers. This is for the black
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 1: vote because that's that's called a southern black belt, running
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 1: from from from the east coast to the west coast.
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 1: The fourth thing I want you to do is to
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 1: also tell them to the knowledge before they start bringing
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: in the more immigrants in this country, tell them that
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 1: require Congress, that Congress do an examination or the negative
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 1: impact that immigration has owned black vote. Nobody ever makes
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 1: that point. They're only people that's that's damage and injured
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 1: by immigrants coming in this country is black vote. And
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 1: the next point is this that I want you to
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 1: extabish a focusing on the reparations for black folk in
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 1: the country and the question they keep the white school,
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 1: where's the money going to? It should be set up
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 1: in what we call I would call regional distribution banks
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 1: where black folk and bar had money to start businesses
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 1: in those in the major black urban areas in the
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 1: United States. Every major and black cities, you should get
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 1: about five or six of them should have a reparations
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 1: bank there. That's what I want now for reparations funds.
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: And don't be worried about how much money with each
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 1: black person getting off, I want to put into a
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 1: special revolve revolving loan fund where Blacks can ball that
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 1: money and be able to start businesses in those are
• 1:23:31
