Speaker 1 (00:07):
Today May sixteen, twenty twenty three, coming up a roller
park unfiltered streaming live of the Black Star Network. We
have talked about the wall of silence. Pro Publica has
broken down this story with a new NYPD and not
only does it show how these cops lie, it shows
what happens when they will pull a black cop aside

(00:29):
and say, yo, what you're doing, and then he will
go back into a hearing and lie about the truth.
It is an unbelievable story. Wait until we've talked to
it with the reporter who broke this thing down. Also
on the show, Fox News continues to be pissed off
and upset because President Joe Biden talked about white supremacy

(00:52):
and it speaks to Howard University. We're gonna show you
when a Fox News anchor literally called Howard University graduates
because of his speech. And then I got a few
words to say to her, to Greg Gutfield, and I
even have to correct the Breakfast Club for their reporting

(01:12):
on President Joe Biden's speech. Nikki Freed leads to the Democratic
Party in Florida. She's gonna be joining us right here
in the studio talking about the continue assault on diversity,
the equity inclusion by the dictator Ron DeSantis there in
the state of Florida. So we got that, uh and

(01:32):
a lot more to unpack on today's show, folks, plus
our marketplace segment when we be talking to the co
founder of a snack company that's Gluten Freeze. So lots
of lots of the coverage. It's time to bring the
funk on Rolling Mark unfiltered on the Black studd Network.
Let's go.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
On it.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
Whatever it is, he's got the fine, he's right on
top in Israel.

Speaker 4 (02:00):

Speaker 1 (02:41):
All right. Twenty nineteen, Kawaski tradevid was shot by two
New York Police Department officers. First of all, it was
a shooting involving two officers. One of the cops a
white cops. Shout them Now, his was so crazy, y'all.
There has audio and there's video of the black cop
okay Uh telling Herbert Davis telling Brendan Thompson not to shoot,

(03:02):
not to do any of this. Now he's so crazy.
They're interviewing this dude after the fact, and he's like, yo,
he was wrong, he was wrong, he was wrong. He
said it all out. Then they going to a hearing,
an internal hearing, and he gets on the stand and
says he was wrong. Should the shot? Should the shot?
They pull a brother into the bathroom. He comes out, Yeah,

(03:25):
I didn't tell the truth. My recollection is totally different.
It is an unbelievable story of how the NYPD, how
cops will lie, will cover up to protect one of
their own. So today I was on social media and
I saw this long Twitter feed that came from the

(03:50):
editor at large of Pro Publica, Eric Yumansky, and I
see that. We gotta get him on the show. And
so he joins us right now, Eric, glad to have
you here. So, folks, let's just do this here. So
we're gonna play some video first, understand exactly what's going on. Well,
actually what happened. So let's play the first piece of video,

(04:10):
and again, what you're gonna hear and see, you're gonna
actually see the cop telling this dude what not to do.
Yet he was still ignored. He's the senior officer. And
it is just this long lit this long list of
lies upon lies upon lies, and it shows with the
actual audio in the video, how cops, top to bottom,

(04:34):
bottom to top, protect each other and don't give a
damn about the citizens. Play the first one.

Speaker 7 (04:40):
Okay, when he was at the kitchen and he kept saying,
get out of my house.

Speaker 8 (04:46):
I'm cooking my full you see, I say, can you
please put.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
The Knight down?

Speaker 8 (04:49):
Put the night down?

Speaker 1 (04:49):
He went and put it down, He took a step forward.

Speaker 7 (04:51):
I pulled it out, activated and my partner activated. He said,
we were aiming it to get to hit him with it. Okay, no,
we would. I don't think we were talking about anything.
We were talking about just mainly we were focusing on him.
We didn't want to really talk about anything. We'll focus
on him.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
Yeah, okay, folks, again, it's a whole totally crazy story.

Speaker 4 (05:11):
Eric.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
The thing at reading reading the Twitter feed, reading the
story is just unbelievable. How these cops on video on
audio and you got them busted. They don't care. They
will protect their own and higher ups will force cops
to change their testimony because they refused to hold even

(05:35):
one officer who was absolutely wrong.

Speaker 9 (05:40):
Yeah, so it's a really really troubling case. I first
reported on it a few years ago. What had happened
was this young man Kwaski, who lived in the Bronx,
had called nine one one himself because he had locked
himself out of his apartment, and he lived in a
supportive housing facility, and the super in the building basically

(06:04):
decided to teach tenants a lesson and wouldn't let them
back into their apartments if they locked themselves out, and
so he called nine to one one and actually firefighters
came and Jimmie opened his door and he was inside,
back in his apartment, and then the cops came after
he was back in his apartment, alone in his apartment,

(06:25):
and they sort of pushed the door in a little
bit and he says, why are you in my home?
I'm already back in and he's holding a long bread
knife and a stick, and at that point the cops say,
you know, put down the knife. And as you say,
there's two cops, there's a senior officer, Herbert Davis, who's

(06:46):
black and who speaks more calmly, says.

Speaker 8 (06:48):
Will you put down the knife?

Speaker 9 (06:50):
Polease and then there's a younger, more junior, white cop,
Brendan Thompson, who's not speaking so calmly. And what happens
is one hundred and twelve seconds after the cops get there,
Brendan Thompson first uses his taser on Trey Wick and

(07:10):
then shoots him despite Davis repeatedly telling him, literally saying
once no, we ain't gonna taste him, and then trying
to push Thompson's gun down, pushing his gun down and
saying no, no, no, don't, don't, don't, don't, and Thompson
shoots anyway and kills Treywick.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
Okay, so Treywick gets killed. And again, as you said,
here you have a senior officer directing this guy what
to do, what not to do, and he doesn't care.
He literally he decides, I'll give a damn about you.
I'm gonna do whatever I want to do. And he

(07:54):
is disobeying the orders again of the more experienced cop.
In fact, the uh there was video. Uh so, uh
there was video you had posted which is on the
YouTube feed that I mean, and I saw it and
I was just sitting here going, okay, I can't believe it.
That what we just witnessed, and so folks just just

(08:14):
roll this because again, folks, this is crazy.

Speaker 10 (08:31):
Man.

Speaker 11 (08:31):
Let me tell you it is beautiful, beautiful, beautiful outside.

Speaker 1 (08:47):
So it's a total is a six minute video. Uh
that's on there, folks. Uh, it's again.

Speaker 8 (08:53):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
Let me see if I can reset this here. I
want to reset it because again I'm watching this and
I'm sitting here going, are you serious?

Speaker 8 (09:03):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (09:04):
Did this actually happen? And when we talk about these
things all the time, you know, on this show, we
often are showing these videos. We often are playing these videos. Uh,
and let's see. Uh, let's see do we have it here?
Let's see, hopefully I can now get it because it
is just unbelievable, uh to watch what unfolds here. And

(09:26):
when you started reporting on it, okay, let's play it there.
When you started reporting on this, when you start seeing
the truth and seeing what came out, were you even
going they really thought you're never gonna find out.

Speaker 9 (09:44):
I gotta tell you, I was amazed when I mean,
you got to keep in mind that I know the
video is playing in the background. The NYPD fought against
this footage coming out for a year and a half.
They refuse to make it public, even refused to share
it with civilian oversight investigators, who couldn't even start their

(10:05):
investigation because the NYPD refused to share any records. Uh.
And then what happened is some some public interest lawyers
sued and won in court and got the footage disclosed.
And you know, it showed really really troubling uh stuff.
But even that, you know, it's it's frankly kind of

(10:27):
hard to follow. And uh and I don't I actually
think this is kind of quite likely a bunch of
us uh doesn't come out and keep in mind. And
I know we're going to get to it. But it's
so amazing to me that you want to you want
to stop and uh.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
Yeah, So here's some I'm about to play this right
now and I want people to act problem see and
hear what happened. He'll play it no Bia.

Speaker 10 (11:02):
Four two four three three three three Fay three four.

Speaker 8 (11:52):
Two four n.

Speaker 2 (12:41):
Lted it down?

Speaker 1 (12:42):
Why are you?

Speaker 12 (12:46):
Why?

Speaker 13 (12:47):
Why my home?

Speaker 10 (12:49):
About?

Speaker 1 (12:50):
How about?

Speaker 8 (12:51):
Why is that home? Put it out?

Speaker 1 (12:53):
Why you in my home?

Speaker 5 (12:55):
Put it down?

Speaker 14 (12:55):
He's got nice.

Speaker 13 (13:00):
Yeah, I don't I have a knife because I'm I'm cooking.

Speaker 15 (13:13):
The night out.

Speaker 9 (13:18):
What it down?

Speaker 8 (13:19):
Put the knight. Put the night down.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
I'm cooking.

Speaker 16 (13:27):
With the Knight down.

Speaker 13 (13:28):
I just talked the five department cut out down with.

Speaker 17 (13:31):
The Knight down.

Speaker 18 (13:32):
I want the five department have already been here with
the Knight down.

Speaker 4 (13:36):
Why is he's just kicking my door open?

Speaker 8 (13:37):
The door was open with the chain.

Speaker 13 (13:38):
I'm knocking the.

Speaker 10 (13:39):
Dog with the night.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
And then dropped the knife?

Speaker 4 (13:51):
Why why is my door?

Speaker 1 (13:53):
Drop the knife?

Speaker 19 (13:54):
Yeah, I'm careful, Yeah yeah, drop the knife. Yeah, drop
the knife, Yeah, drop the knife?

Speaker 12 (14:05):
What what then?

Speaker 4 (14:07):
That was Seren said, Yeah, just sitting.

Speaker 10 (14:37):
NA tell you respond for our.

Speaker 1 (14:54):
So here we have a sixteen year police officer, black guy,
three year police officer, white guy. Black guy has been
very calm, very trying to de esplate if you will.
You got the three year cop. He's got his gun
out and his taser out. First of all, why did

(15:15):
Davis have a body camera? Or did he simply have
one but not have it on?

Speaker 8 (15:21):
He had forgotten it on his lunch Breck. That's actually
the truth, you know. But but like in his defense,
I mean, you know.

Speaker 13 (15:33):
That can happen.

Speaker 1 (15:34):
Well, look here's the deal that shouldn't happen because I
don't think a cop will forget their badge and gun.
And this is one of those because again, this is
one of those things that if we don't have the
body camera footage, we don't actually see or hear any
of this because you really can't see it from the
from the hallway camera. So you see him and you

(15:55):
hear him literally saying put the taser down, We're not
gonna tase this. And then he pulls his gun out
for this other and he and here's what's so crazy
to me. You look at the video. Thompson is literally
in front excuse me, Davis is in front of Thompson.
So if anybody's in the most danger, it's Davis. But
Thompson still doesn't give a damn. He is literally ignoring

(16:18):
the senior officer on the scene.

Speaker 8 (16:21):
That's right, That's absolutely right.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
That's one right, Yeah, old, one second, I'm gonna go
to a break. We're gonna come back and pick pick
up more than this. Because if y'all thought that was crazy,
wait until wait till I guess tells you what happened
when they actually had the hearing unbelievable. You're watching Rolling

(16:45):
Mark on the Filter on livestud network.

Speaker 20 (16:50):
Hatred on the streets.

Speaker 21 (16:51):
A horrific scene white nationalist rally that descended into deadly violence.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
People are losing their their minds.

Speaker 22 (17:03):
As an agary pro Trump Mad storms to the US
capital ship.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
We're about to see the lives what I call white
minority resistance.

Speaker 23 (17:10):
We have seen white folks in this country who simply
cannot tolerate black folks voting.

Speaker 24 (17:16):
I think what we're seeing is the inevitable result of
violent denials.

Speaker 14 (17:21):
This is part of American history.

Speaker 24 (17:23):
Every time that people of color have made progress, whether
real or symbolic, there has been but Carol Anderson at
every university calls white rage as a backlash.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
This is the life of the proud boys and the
Boogaaloo boys America. There's going to be more of this
the proud boy guy.

Speaker 25 (17:40):
This country is getting increasingly racist and its behaviors and
its attitudes because of the fear of white people.

Speaker 23 (17:48):
The fee that they're taking our jobs, they're taking our resources,
they're taking out women.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
This is white beeing Live start network.

Speaker 4 (18:13):
A real revolution there right now. I thank you for
me and the voice of black appearances.

Speaker 14 (18:18):
A moment that we have.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
Now we have to keep this going.

Speaker 8 (18:21):
The video looks phenomenal.

Speaker 2 (18:23):
Between Black Star Network and black owned media and something
like seeing.

Speaker 1 (18:28):
In you can't be black owned media and be scared.

Speaker 8 (18:32):
It's time to be smart. Bring your eyeballs home. You dig.

Speaker 1 (18:40):
Black TV does matter? Dang it?

Speaker 26 (18:43):
Hey, what's up, y'allish your boy Jacob Latimore and you're
now watching Roland Martin right now?

Speaker 1 (18:53):
All right, welcome back, Eric, you MASKI with Pro Public
l at Large. We're talking about this this unbelievable case,
y'all out New York was a shooting four years ago.
So Eric, all right, So Trey Wick gets he gets shot,
he's killed for fire shot to hit him in the chest.
Now it's time for the investigation.

Speaker 8 (19:14):
Yeah, share with it.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
How shameful this investigation was?

Speaker 9 (19:22):
Yeah, so so about a year and a half after
Tree was killed, actually almost two years afterward, the NYPD
actually gave us, after we kept questioning them about it,
a statement saying, well, the investigation is complete and we found.

Speaker 8 (19:39):
No wrongdoing at all. And I was like, well, what
has that? Haes that work and the answer to that is, uh,
we're not telling you. They would't say anything about it.

Speaker 9 (19:52):
And then with my colleague Mike Hayes got some really amazing.

Speaker 8 (19:58):
Uh document and audio about what actually the investigation consisted of.

Speaker 9 (20:04):
So we got this audio actually audio interviews of Davis
and Thompson being interviewed by NYPB.

Speaker 8 (20:12):
Investigators, and it's really remarkable.

Speaker 9 (20:16):
And the reason it's so remarkable is because what the
investigators don't ask them about. They don't ask them about
the fact that Davis had tried to stop his partner
from tasering and then shooting a trailing, even though it's
on footage and you know, we could see it and
we could hear it. They literally never asked them about it.

(20:37):
They interviewed each of them for a half an hour.
Once they interviewed Thompson about it, they waited seven months and.

Speaker 8 (20:47):
Gave him the footage to review first.

Speaker 27 (20:52):
They grew in.

Speaker 8 (20:53):
Yeah, yeah, so.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
Seven months after the shooting and before they interviewed him,
but said, hey, he watched the footage first and then
tell us what happened.

Speaker 8 (21:07):
That's right, you got it, that's correct, yep.

Speaker 1 (21:11):
Okay.

Speaker 8 (21:12):
So then.

Speaker 1 (21:14):
Then this thing goes to some internal vped sort of
like the tribunal. That's that's not public, right.

Speaker 9 (21:24):
Yeah, yeah, And the NYPD says, basically, okay, docally, no
problem at all clears the officers.

Speaker 8 (21:33):
But in New York City, right, yeah, go ahead, go ahead, Yeah.

Speaker 9 (21:37):
In New York City, there's this thing called a Civilian
Complaint Review Board, which is exactly what it sounds like.

Speaker 8 (21:44):
If civilians have complaints, you can lodge it and has
the ability to independently.

Speaker 9 (21:50):
Investigate, but then it can't punish officers itself. It's a
rule that what it has to do if it wants
to give serious punishment against officers, it goes to exactly
what you were just saying, an internal NYPD tribunal that
sort of looks like court and sort of smells like court,
but definitely is in court.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
So they have they have this hearing and Davis testifies.
What does Davis say first?

Speaker 9 (22:21):
So it's pretty it's pretty amazing, and I wish we
had a recording of this, but the NYPD doesn't allow recording,
so it's ah and it's a tribunals. So what happened
was Davis is being interviewed by the Civilian Investigation Board lawyer,
and a Civilian Investigation Board lawyer says, so you tried

(22:43):
to stop your partner from tasering Treewick, and Davis says, yep,
and he says, and you try to stop him from
shooting Traywick and he says yep. And he says, so
you think your partner made a mistake and then it
didn't need to happen, And he says, yes, that is correct.

(23:04):
You know this could have all gone down differently.

Speaker 8 (23:08):
And then all Davis damp.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
Surprises goes, hey, no blue walls, hut, this should not
have happened. He should did this. This should not have happened.
Then all of a sudden, potty break, yup.

Speaker 8 (23:21):
Bathroom break yep, potty break yep. So the lawyers for
the for Thompson's.

Speaker 9 (23:29):
The lawyer for Thompson says, your honor, we have a
five minute bathroom break, which it had been a while
since we had had a bathroom break.

Speaker 8 (23:39):
I will say, And so everybody goes to the bathroom
or whatever.

Speaker 9 (23:44):
Everybody goes out for a few minutes, and about ten
minutes later we go back in and I will say,
I actually, I will tell you, and this is real reporting.
I followed Davis into the bathroom. I did not see
him with anybody, but I wasn't there the whole time,
and he might have been talking to other people and

(24:05):
about ten minutes later, the trial restarts and Davis gets
up there and now he's being questioned by his partner's
lawyer and.

Speaker 8 (24:17):
Says, you know, I actually think the shooting was justified.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
Okay, wait wait wait wait wait wait wait. So, first
of all, this hearing, this internal whatever we're going to
call it, took place.

Speaker 8 (24:30):
When it took place, that was on Friday.

Speaker 1 (24:37):
Okay, so Friday. So here we was shooting that took
place in twenty nineteen. On video. On video on audio,
you have David saying, put the taser down, put the
gun down. I'm not going to taste this guy. You
see his reaction after the shots the fire. In the interview,
Davis is saying, hey, he should not have shot him.

(24:59):
Here he goes in front of this hearing and he says,
flat out shooting the shot him. Shut the wind down.
Bathroom break comes back. Hmmm, yeah, I was wrong four years.
He has been a couist years now. All of a sudden,
after a bathroom break with Thomas's lawyers, he changes his mind.

Speaker 9 (25:23):
Yeah, so, uh so that was a moment, right, and
so actually the civilian investigator lawyer gets up and says,
wait a second, I.

Speaker 8 (25:31):
Want to understand this.

Speaker 9 (25:32):
You're now saying you that you think your partner shooting
was justify What made you change your mind over a
ten minute bathroom break? And literally Davis's answer was, yeah, well,
I had a chance to think about it. It was
a line stuck in my head. I had a chance
to think about it. And the lawyer says, let me
ask you something.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
Right, go ahead, go ahead.

Speaker 8 (25:51):
The shooting was four years ago.

Speaker 9 (25:53):
You never had a chance to think about it over
four years and uh, Davis says, nope, I have not.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
Okay, So what happened next? Was there a ruling?

Speaker 8 (26:08):
No?

Speaker 9 (26:08):
Well so then then, first of all, what happened was
Thompson gets up there and says he doesn't recall anything
he doesn't recall as partner objecting, They said, well it's
in the video. He said, if you say it's in
the video, it's in the video. I don't recall that,
and I don't know there's nothing that he recalls. Right,
So there's Officer Thompson and what happens next is the

(26:36):
judge and this is a person who actually works for
the NYPD commissioner will issue a ruling which is actually
a recommendation, which goes to the NYPD commissioner, who can
decide whatever they want whenever they want it.

Speaker 8 (27:00):
And that is the system.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
You mean to tell me, four years after a shooting,
four years after we have hallway camera, body camera audio interview,
NYPD clears them. Civilian board or whatever you want to
call it, has this hearing which is basically completely governed

(27:36):
by the NYPD, So it ain't civilian. You can't record
it auto your video. David's sixteen year black cop flips
his story all not even think about it. And these
guys are still being paid, they've been on the force.
Have both of them been on death duty or have
they been still been on the street.

Speaker 9 (27:56):
No, they are both still on the street, including Officer Thompson, who,
by the way, has had complaints against him for undue
use of force since uh being uh since shooting Trevier.

Speaker 1 (28:15):
Have we heard anything from Mayor Eric Adams anything from
the commissioner? Have we heard anything all of these people
who keep talking about, you know, what's right and just
has anybody said, hey, this is bullshit?

Speaker 8 (28:33):
So you've had you've had, you.

Speaker 9 (28:34):
Know, City Council, the speaker of the of New York's
City Council has spoken up about Jamna Williams spoken up
about it, but has the Mayor of New York City,
Eric Adams, not that I'm aware of.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
Wow, mm hmm, ain't that quite interesting? Eric, Keep us
a breast of what happens. As you said, there's no
timetable when the decisions gonna be made. M hm. That's right, yeah, wow, alrighty,
all right. We appreciate great reporting here, Eric, thanks a lot.

Man?

Speaker 1 (31:02):
You got to stay on stage?

Speaker 28 (31:03):
And I was like a man, I'm like, you know,
I'm thinking there, I'm good And he was absolutely right.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
But what show was jail at that This was one
on one during that time, and I will show you
show You're doing one on one going great, You're making money,
and you're like, I'm like, I don't need to leave.

Speaker 28 (31:20):
I only need from you know, Wednesday, Thursday to Sunday.

Speaker 1 (31:23):
You know, I just didn't want to do that.

Speaker 29 (31:25):
You know.

Speaker 28 (31:25):
It was just like I'm gonna stay here or I
didn't want to finish work Friday, fly out, go do
a gig Saturday Sunday.

Speaker 14 (31:32):
I was just like, I don't have to do that,
and I lost a little bit of.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
That hunger that I had.

Speaker 28 (31:37):
In New York. I would hit all the clubs, running around,
you know, sometimes be in Chappelle or be in this
one or that one. We go to the comedy cellar
one in the morning, and I mean that was our
life and we loved it.

Speaker 8 (31:50):
You know.

Speaker 28 (31:50):
You do two shows in Manhattan, go to Brooklyn, leave Brooklyn,
go to Queen's, go to Jersey.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
And I kind of just I got complacent.

Speaker 28 (31:58):
But I was like, I got this money out good,
I need to go. I don't know, to go chase
that because that money wasn't at the same level that
I was making.

Speaker 14 (32:06):
But what I was missing was that training yes, that
was that.

Speaker 1 (32:10):
And it wasn't the money.

Speaker 28 (32:11):
It was the money, you know, it was that.

Speaker 14 (32:13):
That's what I needed.

Folks, Time Patres are panel that lead former senior advisor
for the e p A Environmental Specialists.

Speaker 10 (34:58):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (34:58):
We have, of course Randy Bryant, the Disruptor, the dee
I Disruptor. She and Mustafa from DC to Run Walker
found her Context Media out of Atlanta. Tom Ustafa. What
we've just heard was absolutely insane and it goes to
show you what happens when these cops they would do

(35:20):
whatever to protect themselves. And here's the deal. Black cops
covered for a white cope at blue walls. What's most important,
it's about blue. It ain't black and it ain't white.

Speaker 31 (35:31):
Yeah, and it's just another example of why folks have
such a difficult time and being able to trust police officers.
You know, we expect that there are always going to
be a percentage of cops who are going to be
bad cops. You know, they're gonna be the ones causing
the police brutality, you know, unfortunately, the ones who are
also taking our lives. But we also have expectations that,

(35:52):
you know, that the cops are going to stand up
the people who want to be labeled as good cops,
the ones who want to be trusted. And it gets
even worse because this is actually built into the system.
Lying is built into the law enforcement or policing system
if you really understand what's going on. You know, police
officers lie during investigations when they're out there trying to
gather facts and trying to move people in one direction.

(36:15):
When you take folks into the interrogation room, we know
that there's lying that happens there. We saw in the
Breonna Taylor case that there was lying also that happened
in relationship to to the arrest warrants. So you know, now,
you know, we continue to see this time and time
and time again. And what it comes down to is
that they are protected and that's where that blue wall

(36:36):
of silence comes in place. And if you happen to
speak out against that, then there are ramifications. If you
are a police officer, or often if you are also
in other occupations, if you called out that part of
the injustice, then you are a black ball. You are
also seen as someone who doesn't support making sure that
that communities are safe.

Speaker 8 (36:56):
And it's all a false narrative.

Speaker 1 (36:59):
These people do not care, Randy, they don't care. And
then you have a system that literally is rigged for
the cops to get away with it. The internal investigation,
in the so called civilian investigation that the NBYPD runs.
How the hell do you have an investigation and then

(37:19):
a second investigation and they run.

Speaker 13 (37:22):
Both, Right, the police are policing themselves.

Speaker 32 (37:26):
The police are policing themselves, so of course there's going
to be no accountability or change.

Speaker 13 (37:32):
We have to get outside outsiders involved in this.

Speaker 33 (37:36):
You know, it was interesting to me when I watched
that tape and the season officer was directing the young
white officer not to tage and not to shoot, and
how that officer disregarded the black officer, and I really
would suggest that it was because he was black, that
he really did not have a value for black people altogether.

(37:58):
He almost seemed anxious to injure this black man in
some way. When he had his taser and his gun
out at the same time. He wanted to injure this man,
and that's what was scary about it. But then after
all of that that the black man, who the black
police officer, who to me was disregarded by the white

(38:20):
police's officer, went on to defend him, to provide a
defense for him and say and completely change his story.

Speaker 8 (38:28):
It's just sad.

Speaker 13 (38:29):
I mean, it just shows how thick that wall is
and how quickly.

Speaker 33 (38:34):
Those you know, you can change someone. I was reading
an article recently that said that most officers acknowledge that
there is this blue wall, but fifty two percent think
it's not a problem. They don't even see it as
an issue. That they lie and cover up all of
their misconduct.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
And here's the thing to ron, where all the blue
Lives matter people, where all the people talk about what's
what's fair and what's just, it's amazing how they're all
quiet and they are defenders of the system that allows
cops to lie with impunity.

Speaker 34 (39:14):
Well, you know, the whole idea of blue lives matter
kind of died on January sixth, where you had people
storming the capitol and beating police officers and killing one
of them, and they tried to make excuses for that.
That whole idea about a blue wall and the idea
of blue lives matter only is convenient when it's not
going against their white supremacy bottom line. And to the
other sister's point who just spoke, it's fascinating that in

(39:37):
any other sort of hierarchy, whether it's the military or
even in corporate America or anything, where you have an
experienced leader or an experienced veteran and a rookie, so
to speak, the deferment is always going to go to
the more experienced person, and it did not happen in
this case. If you have a partner and you're a
lawlessman officer, you listen to what your partner, who has

(39:59):
more experience, says, and if you completely disregard what he says,
what does that say about your ability to follow commands
and follow orders? And what does that say about your
ability to listen to a black man with more experience.
And it's sad that this particular officer who has more
experience and is black, completely caved on this man's human
rights and his civil rights when he was put on
the spot about what really happened, and he defended his

(40:20):
partner when it's a partner had no respect for him.

Speaker 14 (40:22):
It's horrible. It's more. It's a deeper code than what
the mafia has and what gangs have, where you have
a code of silence that.

Speaker 34 (40:28):
Says you back up your person right or wrong, at
the expense of someone else's life.

Speaker 14 (40:31):
And that's evil.

Speaker 1 (40:33):
That's exactly what that is. And so we'll see what
this ruling is. All right, y'all got to go to break,
we come back. Fox News, boy, they are mad as
hell at President Biden for discussing white supremacy in his
speech to Howard University. I got a few things to
say to one Fox News host who literally called the

(40:53):
two thousand and twenty three four thousand student graduates of
Howard University called them because she ain't like Biden's speech.
And then Greg Gutfield, Oh, he says, white supremacy, it's
not a thing in this country.

Speaker 8 (41:11):
Hm.

Speaker 1 (41:12):
Really, time for another deconstruction. That's next. You're watching Rolling

Speaker 20 (43:11):
Ha, Hey, I'm in Tick smithber Ulna.

Speaker 1 (43:17):
Well and you will watching Roling Martin on field. All right, folks,

(43:39):
yesterday you saw how I had to sit here and
just destroy Harris Faulkner and the rest of those fools
and out numbered who straight up lied about President Joe
Biden's speech to Howard University and the commitment on Saturday. Uh,
and it clearly it seems that after his speech, Oh
it really is pissed off the entire Fox ecosystem, which
means that they set out for talking points attack Biden

(44:03):
on him, attacking white supremacy. That's typically what happens when
you see all the Fox shows repeating the same talking points. So, uh,
Fox and Friends the day after you have Rachel Compost, Duffy,
Peter Head, Saith and Will Caine. They were talking about
his speech and listen to the sheer, hatred and stupidity

(44:25):
that comes out of these fool's mouths.

Speaker 14 (44:30):
Stretching out everybody stretch.

Speaker 1 (44:35):
Meditations.

Speaker 14 (44:36):
Daily affirmation was.

Speaker 1 (44:40):
All right, first of all, guys, you're playing breakfast club audio.
So here's the deal. Let's play. Let's go to the
Fox video. Okay, let's play the Fox video.

Speaker 27 (45:05):
Versity didn't talk about the border, he didn't talk about
the threat of the Chinese Communist Party, he didn't even
talk about the threat of islam terrorism. Instead, he said,
the biggest threat to our country is, in fact, the
threat of white supremacy.

Speaker 20 (45:20):
Yeah, that's right, he said.

Speaker 1 (45:21):
It's not right there. Okay. So Will Caine, who I
repeatedly destroyed when I was at CNN, he decided, oh,
Biden didn't talk about this or this or this. Oh,
He's like, oh, the biggest threat is white supremacy. All right,
So huh, okay, I want you to remember that particular

(45:44):
point because I'm gonna play a law enforcement expert who
literally call that the greatest threat. So just just just
we go get to that in a second. But just
played more of the Fox News stupidity of Will Rachel
and Peter Hicks.

Speaker 37 (46:02):
That meanwhile, a record number of actual terrorists you talked
about will suspects have been coming across our border. Take
a look at this list here, So we have in
October through March. You know in twenty twenty two alone,
ninety eight people. Look at the increase.

Speaker 1 (46:25):
Look at the one in the bottom right.

Speaker 38 (46:27):
That's four years combined, eight total on the terror watch
list encounter. These are the encounters, by the way, not
the gataways exactly.

Speaker 1 (46:36):
So far one hundred and sixty eight.

Speaker 38 (46:38):
It's just listening to that speech, so divisive, so cynical.
It plays into the conversation they want to be having
about maga republicans.

Speaker 1 (46:49):
And threats to democracy.

Speaker 38 (46:52):
It's not grounded in actual threats or at least ones.

Speaker 1 (46:56):
That I just look at it and go, this is
where we're at. So it's a freeze. That's not true.
Now I want you to understand, this conversation was actually
held on the one year anniversary of the shooting in
Buffalo where ten black people were gunned down by a
white supremacist, by a racist, no mention of that. And

(47:20):
then you see that, Look at that bottle right number.
Look at the number there were more white domestic terrorists
on January sixth, twenty twenty one, than they claimed that's
crossing the border. Oh and then you heard him, Well
they would have blamed Mecca. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (47:38):
And then on the.

Speaker 1 (47:39):
Exact same day that they were complaining about Biden's speech,
you had hundreds of racist patriot folks, the patriot.

Speaker 26 (47:51):
Right marching in Washington, DC. Literally, they were marching in
why shoots in DC. Oh, I guess Fox.

Speaker 1 (48:04):
News didn't get the memo or the email about that
racist march. Okay, more of the stupidity.

Speaker 14 (48:14):
Believe it to be true?

Speaker 1 (48:15):
Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 27 (48:17):
You know, if he believed it to be true, we'd
be talking about a level of incompetency that would be
unmatched in the Oval office in the White House. If
it were to be true, we'd be looking to president
that is totally ignorant of the threat of the Chinese
Communists Party, Islamic terrorism, terrorists coming through the southern border.
We would be looking at a president so frivolous and

(48:37):
ignorant that it would represent in and of itself a
national security threat.

Speaker 1 (48:42):
The sheer ignorance, the incompetence, the stupidity is you Will Caine,
is you Rachel Compost Duffy, is you Peter heck Seth, Well,
the three of you combined don't even have the IQ
to mess Joe Biden. You three are sheer idiots. But

(49:10):
we haven't gotten to the good stuff just yet.

Speaker 27 (49:13):
PRIs play, but it's not true, and he doesn't believe
it's true. It's a pander, and it is a naked
and shameless and an embarrassing pander that he has to.

Speaker 1 (49:24):
All right, Will came just saying it's not true. I
want y'all to put a pin in that video right there,
and I want y'all to write, now play. Here's the
video of the director of a federal Bureau of Investigation,
Christopher Ray, speaking about white domestic terrorism and the threat

(49:49):
to the homeland.

Speaker 39 (49:52):
We're also keeping our eye on domestic terrorism from people
who've come up with their own customized belief systems and
hope to advance them through violence. We have, through the
third quarter of this fiscal year, had about give or
take one hundred arrests in the international terrorism side, which

(50:14):
includes the homegrown violent extremism this year. But we've also
had just about the same number again, don't quote me
to the exact digit on the domestic terrorism side. And
I will say that a majority of the.

Speaker 8 (50:31):
Domestic terrorism.

Speaker 39 (50:35):
Cases that we've investigated are motivated by some version of
which you might call white supremacist violence, but it includes
other things as well. A huge chunk of those domestic
terrorism investigations involve racially motivated, violent extremist motivated terrorist attacks,
and the majority of those of the racially motivated violent

(50:57):
extremist attacks are fueled by some kind of white supremacy.
And I would say that the most lethal activity over
the last few years has been committed.

Speaker 40 (51:08):
By those type of attackers. It used to be that
some angry, demented guy living in mom's basement, not that
there's anything wrong with that, you know, in one part
of the country is now able to communicate with a
similarly angry guy in grandma's attic in another part of
the country, and they get each other spun up. Now
and how to separate who's being aspirational versus who's being intentional.

(51:34):
It won't shock you to learn, and hopefully not other
members of the committee, that the amount of angry, hateful, unspeakable, combative, violent,
even rhetoric on social media exceeds what anybody in their
worst imagination is out there. Terrorism moves at the speed

(51:55):
of social media, and you have the ability of loan
actors in one part of the country to spin up
similar like minded individuals in other parts of the country
and urge them into action.

Speaker 1 (52:10):
Here we have the head of the FBI laying out
laying out the sheer threat of white domestic terrorism. Go
to BIPAD. This here is the New York Times. Top
law enforcement officials say the biggest domestic terror threat comes

(52:30):
from white supremacists. Who says that the Secretary of the
Department of Homeland Security, it's his job to actually know
these very threats. Last year, a former head of the
Department of Homeland Security's intelligence branch filed a whistle blow

(52:50):
or complaint in which he accused the Department of blocking
a report about the threat of violent extremism and describe
white supremacist as having been exceptionally lethal in the abhorred
target attacks in recent years. Who was the president the
previous year? The president the previous year was Donald Trump,

(53:14):
the same Donald Trump who welcome those white supremacists on
January sixth. But on Fox News, Oh no, Biden's the problem,
they say, Biden's line, Biden's incompetent. The same Biden who
spoke about the threat of white supremacy in his Staley

(53:39):
Union address this year, in his address to Congress the
Joint Session when he first got there. The Saint Nod
ain't the first time he said it. But you gotta
understand the white nationalist audience. They watched Fox News. That's

(54:02):
why Fox is so angry at Biden because of this.
Now let's go back, because I have not played yet
the best of a shit stupidity of what we heard
on Fox News, Chris play.

Speaker 27 (54:20):
He has to put a punctuation mark of And I'm
not just saying that.

Speaker 1 (54:24):
Because I'm here in HBCU. Yes you are. And you
know what we could do.

Speaker 27 (54:28):
We could roll the tape of Joe Biden throughout his
career as a politician and all of the racist statements
that he has made look subjective.

Speaker 1 (54:38):
Again Will Kaine saying he's only saying it because he
said it at HBCU. Real, Caine, you are an absolute liar.
I expose Harris Faulkner her lies yesterday. He said it
in the State of the Union. He said it in
his first Joint Session of Congress. He said it in

(54:59):
a the summit at the White House.

Speaker 26 (55:01):
He said it in twenty nineteen when he was running
against Trump.

Speaker 1 (55:04):
You and when he was speaking in Iowa eighty six
point six percent white in that particular town, you were lying.
But you're more bright wh when you had CNN, which
is why I was easily debating you. And so you
absolutely are with the cast of dummies now at Fox News,
people who clearly don't know how to use Google Press, play.

Speaker 27 (55:31):
Objectively racist statements he has made throughout his career and
say this is your knight and shining armor. This is
your man to take down white supremacy. He's pandering and
if it can't be seen, you're blind.

Speaker 37 (55:45):
Well it's also it's a political strategy. And we had
on someone's guiding gene from America First Legal who uncovered
that our you know, federal law enforcement is actually going
after the supposed white supremacists. And they had these ridiculous,
comical profiles of pro life moms and you know, conservative dads,

(56:06):
you know in rural America. And meanwhile, we have this
list of one hundred and sixty eight terris coming across
our border in just the last few months. So you
know that's crazy. But it's actually it's so I'm going
to just say it. I think it's evil. It's evil
to take a country as good as ours, a country
that really, if you look at people's everyday interactions with

(56:26):
people of other races and cultures here in America, they're
by and large ninety nine point nine percent peaceful, loving
people want to live in America the way Martin Luther
King had it, where we don't see color, we look
at people's character.

Speaker 20 (56:40):
That's who we are. And yet he for political game.

Speaker 37 (56:43):
Because he has failed so much as a president and
taken our country so down, he understands the only way
he could win is to convince some pretty dumb college
kids at that university if they believe him.

Speaker 20 (56:55):
Well, it's a disservice if they believe that.

Speaker 37 (56:58):
This country is full of white supremacists and that's our
number one threat.

Speaker 20 (57:03):
But look you saw in twenty.

Speaker 37 (57:04):
Twenty pt during those rites, a lot of people could
be convinced that this is not this is a racist country.

Speaker 38 (57:12):
That's being taught at that university, as universities across America.
So that statement is not surprising to the ears of
those kids. Over the years of most college kids across America.
They've been programmed to believe that is true, most of
which have never left the country, never seen real You
want to see real racism, travel the world, travel the
world outside.

Speaker 1 (57:32):
Of our borders.

Speaker 38 (57:33):
We have our sins of our past and things we've
had to get through in this country.

Speaker 1 (57:37):
There's no doubt.

Speaker 38 (57:38):
But man, when you look the way Americans live together
in everyday life, ignoring.

Speaker 1 (57:44):
The issue of race. It's a special thing, and they're
trying to ruin that, no.

Speaker 20 (57:48):
Question about it.

Speaker 1 (57:52):
You got three ignorant, incompetent white people and Fox News
actually trying to tell black people, especially four thousand black
students at Howard University, that she called Howard graduates dumb.

(58:15):
Let me explain some of you, dumb ass. Rachel Compost Duffy,
my niece, graduated summa cum laude from Howard with a
degree in architecture and is getting her master's next year.
I was there. You Rachel can kiss my ass, Will Caine,

(58:36):
you can kiss my ass, and you know better, Will,
and Peter Head said, and then Peter you go.

Speaker 41 (58:45):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (58:47):
They use question whether these black students have passports, whether
they travel the world. You three dumb asses haven't even
traveled Black America. I dare you, Peter Heck Saith and
Rachel compos Duffy and Will Cane, I dare you to

(59:08):
visit Howard University. They don't know racism when those students
were subjected to bomb threats. Today, Jackson State University was
closed down because of a bomb threat. Numerous HBCUs across
America endured bomb threats, and U three assholes have the

(59:33):
audationy to say they know nothing about racism. What I
need y'all to understand is that what you are witnessing
is why I wrote this. They are angry that Joe

(59:58):
Biden is calling out their audience. They're angry that the
number one white nationalists in America took across and it's
no longer employed there. White nationalism is literally the business
plan of Fox News, and that's why they're upset because

(01:00:24):
Biden keeps calling it out. For you to dare say
that these black students are dumb, when Rachel compost Duffy,
how did you get your job because your ass was
on Big Brother? You don't know a damn thing, You

(01:00:49):
have no real experience and Will came Now you and
I both know you a lightweight. Now we debated at
seeing in numerous times. Yeah, you from Texas, You're at
the University of Texas. But will you are a lightweight,
which is why BALMANI destroyed you at ESPN, which is

(01:01:11):
why Stephen A. Smith destroyed you at ESPN. But among
the faithful at Fox News, you a bright shining light
because we all know all of them ain't bright bulbs
in a dark ass room. The reason I played all
of that for y'all because I need you to understand

(01:01:34):
the sheer hatred that is going on in this country
and for you to understand what does that play and
what their strategy is. And their strategy is they need
to gin up their white base for next year's election.
If you don't think if you think I'm lying, remember
I destroyed Harris Faulkner her out Number crew yesterday. They

(01:01:57):
went on at noon yesterday while we were on the air,
Greg Gutfield had his own comments about Fox News. We're
gonna play those after the break. They're gonna go to
my panel, and then we're gonna talk with NICKI Free
who leads the Florida Democratic Party. Because you got Ron Desantist,
who is the head cheerleader of the white nationalists and
what he's doing attacking diversity, equity, inclusion and doesn't want

(01:02:18):
the race being discussed in Florida. I need y'all to
understand I call this. I've been talking about white fear
since two thousand and nine. What you're seeing play out,
you're seeing the white nationalist network, fake Fox News get
upset because Biden is there calling it out, and you're

(01:02:38):
watching rolling by dunfilter on a black stud network.

Speaker 21 (01:02:43):
Hatred on the streets, a horrific scene, white nationalist rally
that descended into deadly violence.

Speaker 1 (01:02:52):
White people are losing their their minds. As a maguary
pro Trump Mark storms the US capital over sex. We're
about to see the lives what I call white minority resistance.

Speaker 23 (01:03:03):
We have seen white folks in this country who simply
cannot tolerate black folks voting.

Speaker 9 (01:03:10):
I think what we're seeing is the inevitable result of
violent denial.

Speaker 4 (01:03:15):
This is part of American history.

Speaker 24 (01:03:16):
Every time that people of color had made a progress,
whether real or symbolic, there has been but Carol Anderson
at every university calls white rage as a backlash.

Speaker 1 (01:03:26):
This is the right of the proud Boys and the
Boogaaloo boys.

Speaker 8 (01:03:29):
America.

Speaker 1 (01:03:30):
There's going to be more of this, the prodvoy God.

Speaker 25 (01:03:33):
This country is getting increasingly racist and its behaviors and
its attitudes because of the fear of white people.

Speaker 23 (01:03:41):
The fear that you're taking our job, they're taking out
our resources, they're taking out women.

Speaker 1 (01:03:46):
This is white beeing.

Speaker 35 (01:04:04):
On a Next a Balanced Life with me, doctor Jackie.
What does it mean to actually have balance in your life?

Speaker 13 (01:04:09):
Why is it important?

Speaker 8 (01:04:10):
And how do you get there? A masterclass on the
art of balance.

Speaker 35 (01:04:13):
It could change your life.

Speaker 36 (01:04:14):
Find the harmony of your life. And so what beat
can you maintain at a good pace? What cadence can
keep you running that marathon? Because we know we're going
to have, you know, high levels, we're.

Speaker 13 (01:04:29):
Going to have low levels.

Speaker 36 (01:04:30):
But where can you find that.

Speaker 13 (01:04:34):
That harmonious taste.

Speaker 35 (01:04:36):
That's all Next on a Balance Life on the Lifestar Network.

Speaker 1 (01:04:42):
What's up? What's up? I'm doctor Ricky the Quid Master. Hi.

Speaker 4 (01:04:46):
I am amra Stevens West from the Carmichael Show.

Speaker 8 (01:04:48):
Hi.

Speaker 42 (01:04:48):
My name is LaToya Luckett and you're watching Roland Martin Unfiltered.

Speaker 1 (01:04:58):
So one of the most incompetent people who has no
business being on any news show, on any networks. Great
gut Field, he decided to get involved, get his get
his take on what's happening, because you know, I'm telling y'all.
Fox News distributed to their talk few points across the
network in the Gutlass Wonder himself, greatgut Field, this is
what he had to say about Bibe the speech of
white supremacy.

Speaker 22 (01:05:18):
I just think it's time that white people stop lying
to black people, right.

Speaker 1 (01:05:23):
Why do we lie to them?

Speaker 22 (01:05:25):
Why do we tell them, Hey, when you get out
into the real world, this is what you're gonna face.

Speaker 8 (01:05:29):
That's a lie.

Speaker 1 (01:05:30):
It's an outright lie. White supremacy is not a threat
to them.

Speaker 22 (01:05:34):
If you look at the ADL, who are very biased
towards labeling everything a racist act, they found twenty five
murders I guess in twenty two attributed to extremism out
of twenty six thousand homicides, twenty five murders, two mass
true two mass shootings.

Speaker 1 (01:05:51):
So it's rare. Ugly, it's rare, but it's sure.

Speaker 22 (01:05:55):
As hell, ain't the number one threat. That is a
brat obvious lie you could come up with.

Speaker 1 (01:06:02):
So he is lying.

Speaker 22 (01:06:03):
You have to ask why do you lie to black people?
Why do you lie to black people? Why do liberals
feel that they have to do that because they need
to keep blacks angry, They need to keep blacks close
to them.

Speaker 1 (01:06:17):
Right, This does not serve black people, doesn't.

Speaker 22 (01:06:20):
If it doesn't serve black people, it doesn't serve white
people either, because it creates conflict. The people who need
to cleave blacks from whites do so because they realize
there is profit and discontent. They're rent seeking as long
as there's a problem, whether it's racism or whether it's homelessness.
A billion dollars worth to homelessness, we don't.

Speaker 1 (01:06:38):
Know where one.

Speaker 22 (01:06:39):
Because you need a persistent crisis in order to keep
your job, consultants and corporations, Right, activists, you.

Speaker 1 (01:06:47):
Got to keep this lie going.

Speaker 22 (01:06:49):
And once blacks walk away from this lie, oh they're
going to be happy, but they're going to be pissed.
And I'm so going to be there for that.

Speaker 1 (01:07:07):
Greg, how many black people do you actually know? Seriously,
Greg Gutfield, you have been an Essence Festival, You have
been in the Cincinnati Music Festival, correction of Black Hawcas Foundation. Hell, Greg,
has your pale ass ever been to an HPCU game ever?

(01:07:32):
And man I love this yere. Oh it's the liberals
and they're getting bleat to be fired up. Dude, your
white savior, Donald Trump. Literally that was his campaign. He
stoked white fear the moment he came down the escalator.
That was what he did. The numbers don't lie the

(01:07:56):
dramatic increase in racial attacks, the dramatic increase in the
sort of racial violence rhetoric on the social media Donald Trump.
And again, why were those white domestic terrorists outside of
the Capitol on January sixth? Because Donald Trump was angry

(01:08:17):
about black people voting in Atlanta, Philadelphia, Milwaukee, and Detroit.
He kept naming them. Oh I'm sorry he named them
again the scene in town hall, which was a joke.
So I need people watching, I need you to understand
the reason they are attacking Biden and now this old

(01:08:38):
Black people are going to be pissed. Actually, that's why
we don't watch you, Fox News, because your business plan,
which Roger L's created, was to attack black people. Shall
we roll the tape when Bill O'Reilly attacked Snoop and
Ludicrous and all the other folks. How he consistently attacked

(01:08:58):
civil rights folks and to her and Hannity and Laura.
We can continue if you would like. And so I
need people to watch you to understand and see. I
told y'all how the role that other media outlets play
in this year, like you take media. Iye, that's amazing.
I could see Mega Kelly can talk about burping and

(01:09:21):
Media Eye will run a story. But you notice they
won't write up anything about this segment when we were
in fact checking Fox News. I wonder why I told
y'all of a black host a network had called me
and said that would be great to have me on
the show, but her white producers didn't like my book title. Yeah, seriously,

(01:09:42):
they're afraid of this title, even though I discussed those
saying media people in the book. Why am I laying
this all out because I need all of y'all to
understand what twenty twenty four is all about. What you
are witnessing. Ronald Sanders in Florida, Greg Abbott in Texas,
that nutcase Carry Lake and the people in Arizona, and

(01:10:03):
then of course in South Carolina and Tennessee in North
Carolina and Mississippi and Alabama, and we can go on
and on and on. They know the only way they
can win in twenty twenty four, how they can win
the White House, how they can win the Senate, how
they can keep control of the House, how they can
win governess managers and say legislatures. They need to stoke

(01:10:24):
white fear, y'all, CRTDI that is all about white fear.
Moms for liberty who have the audacity to use a
my Angelo quote on Mother's Day when they are literally
trying to get rid of books written by my Angelo.
I keep telling y'all, we're connecting the dots here and
mull start for Randy in to run. Black people had

(01:10:47):
better not be asleep and get caught up in silliness
and not realize what is at stake. These people do
not want to see any initiatives that speak to the
advancement of black people because they see what is going on.

(01:11:09):
They see there are fewer white births. They see, they
see what's the death White death rate is hired about
twelve fifteen states in the white birth rate. This whole
great replacement theory. We see what they're doing is before
our eyes, and if we sit at home and do
not vote, these are the people who are going to
be in power.

Speaker 33 (01:11:26):
Randy, your first They absolutely want us to stay asleep,
just like you just said.

Speaker 13 (01:11:32):
That's why they have the anti rogue moment.

Speaker 33 (01:11:34):
They do not want us to be aware and be
intelligent about what is happening in this country. It was
interesting to me how they show the status of the
what's happening at the border, but they did not show
the status of crimes that are committed based in white
violence and white supremacy, and those numbers have sky I

(01:11:55):
found that very interesting.

Speaker 32 (01:11:56):
Those numbers have skyrocketed. And if you do this the research, you.

Speaker 33 (01:12:01):
Will find that oftentimes what they do doesn't end up
in death, but the violence is absolutely there.

Speaker 13 (01:12:08):
Right, So that's one thing how they avoided that all together.

Speaker 33 (01:12:14):
If people were aware of what was happening, they would
be angry and they would vote differently, and we would.

Speaker 13 (01:12:20):
As we have in the past, shown up at the polls.

Speaker 4 (01:12:23):
So is this does, like you.

Speaker 13 (01:12:24):
Mentioned, go right along with what the Santus is doing.
They want us to be quiet.

Speaker 33 (01:12:29):
They want us to be not knowledgeable about what's happening
in this world. White supremacy is what is unquestionably the
biggest threat to this country, and they don't want us
to be aware of it.

Speaker 13 (01:12:42):
I mean These are people who.

Speaker 32 (01:12:43):
Won't even They want to act like Africans.

Speaker 33 (01:12:46):
Being enslaved never really happened, and it wasn't that bad,
and it was a really, really long time ago. They
don't want to talk about systemic racism because we all
then would be outraged.

Speaker 32 (01:12:56):
So they try to silence us anyway they possibly can.

Speaker 1 (01:12:59):
I got a kick out of them talking about, Oh
my god, look at all these terrorists who crossing the border,
go to my iPad. This is January six folks, five
hundred guilty, please, nine hundred arrests. More than three thousand
people could be charged. That's a hell of a lot
more folks. And guess what not many of those people

(01:13:21):
look like me and Utah run.

Speaker 34 (01:13:24):
Well, you know, even deeper than a political message, what's
going on what you're seeing right now is the power
of messaging.

Speaker 14 (01:13:33):
Fox News is not planned to the inform voter. Fox
News is playing to its base.

Speaker 34 (01:13:37):
And it just came off of this serious case with
Dominion and Tucker Carlson that happened and everything. So what
they're trying to do is ramp up this white supremacist rhetoric,
but they're cauching it in language where they don't have
to necessarily say the N word, but all you have
to do is say, look at all these people who
are coming across the border. Look at these black people
who don't really have any issues. Somebody's get gitting them
up to have a conversation to get them outrage and funny.

Speaker 14 (01:13:58):
It's funny you mentioned the situation.

Speaker 34 (01:13:59):
Where Howard, because there is a historic thing that happens
with a lot of white supremacists where they think that
black people aren't intelligent enough to form their own opinions,
that there has to be some invisible white hand directing
black people, which is why so much how slowly gets
formed towards white people who may be allies to black
people who are trying to push back.

Speaker 14 (01:14:15):
Against white supremacy.

Speaker 34 (01:14:16):
The other thing is this Trump was what I would
like to call, you know, ignorant evil. The people who
you mentioned, like carry Leg des Sandus and other people
in other states who are pushing towards moving things right wing,
they are intelligent evil, meaning they know enough to be
quiet and they know how to not make enough ways
to make people outrage enough with them enough to push

(01:14:36):
back against them.

Speaker 14 (01:14:37):
That makes them more dangerous.

Speaker 34 (01:14:38):
And all this stuff is couched in racist language, is
couched in racist rhetoric. And the danger is, and what
I talk about a lot is that I think there's
an opportunity for the DNC to be to be forward thinking,
to say that, look, President Biden had called out white supremacy.
This is a messaging that we can seize on. So
we can say that these are things that need to
be fought against, and this is what we stand for.
So I think it's very dangerous people don't get behind

(01:14:59):
this and say that we are pushing back against this
and we're not going to let people control the narrative.

Speaker 14 (01:15:04):
And right now, don't see that. It's very dangerous.

Speaker 1 (01:15:06):
Le's seem stat again. I need people to understand. Fox
News is the tip of the spear. They are the leader.
And so when Biden gives this speech on Saturday, and
again they said the first time Biden and giving a
speech to discuss in white supremacy. I laid it out yesterday.
He did it in Iowa in twenty nineteen in a
town as eighty seven percent white, eight point five percent black.

(01:15:29):
Trust me what that many of us at that damn speech? Okay,
he did it again in his first speech the Joint
Session of Congress in twenty twenty one, did it again
and instead of the Union speech this year did it
again at a summit that was held in the White
House with a lot of white people in the audience.
So when the Harris Faulkner yesterday was like Bardin's never,
I bet he would have said this for the white people,

(01:15:51):
he has what they don't like is and this is
no different. This is why center Tommy Tupperville is out
of Alabama is like, well, I see these white nations
as Americans. He won't even condemn they are calling and
they're attacking the Secretary of Defense, Lord Austin, first African American. Oh,
all this vote because they're trying to get rid of

(01:16:13):
extremism in the military. And a Congressman Alexandria Oczo Cortez
has talked about white supremacy in law enforcement press playing.

Speaker 5 (01:16:26):
It's found that despite efforts, it doesn't look like things
have improved. And I would like to submit both of
these documents to.

Speaker 8 (01:16:34):
The record without objection.

Speaker 14 (01:16:37):
Police officers have.

Speaker 5 (01:16:38):
Been dismissed across the United States, including Virginia, Texas, Florida, Michigan, Nebraska,
and Louisiana. For having ties to the klu Klux Klan.
And we also know that more than thirty active or
retired police officers joined the January sixth attack on the
Capitol and at least seven are facing charges connected to

(01:16:58):
that day. I take it you are familiar with this
two thousand and six bulletin, correct.

Speaker 29 (01:17:08):
I may have to review that bulletin man to recall
it exactly.

Speaker 4 (01:17:11):
No worries to your knowledge.

Speaker 5 (01:17:14):
What do we know about the radicalization efforts among certain
officers already in police departments and the effort to recruit
white nationalists joining.

Speaker 40 (01:17:25):
Police departments across.

Speaker 32 (01:17:26):
The United States?

Speaker 8 (01:17:29):
Yes, ma'am.

Speaker 29 (01:17:29):
Well, as I mentioned before, individuals that are in positions
of trust and have radicalized ideas and gravitate towards hate
and violence are a very bipad.

Speaker 1 (01:17:43):
They for a writer's investigation May six, twenty twenty two.
Will they lay out US police trainers with far right
ties are teaching hundreds of cops. What we're seeing here, Mustafa,
is that these radical extremists, these white nationalists, these white
supremacy are invading military law enforcement. Is this is real?

(01:18:04):
The data is there, and that's why the deal, Just
why Department of Defense wants them out. And guess what, Gustafa.
When the bill was put forth to actually investigate and
root out neal Nazis and the white supremacist in our
military and law enforcement, nearly every Republican in the House
voted against it. That is why Fox News is pissed

(01:18:29):
off at the Biden's piece. At howard final comment.

Speaker 14 (01:18:32):
Yeah, I mean, all you have to do is go back.

Speaker 31 (01:18:34):
So let's go back twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen over the
Department of Homeland Security. You know, they actually had three
reports that came out at that time through the threat assessment,
and all those came back and they said that white
supremacy is the national number one threat to the nation.

Speaker 4 (01:18:50):
And we know that white.

Speaker 31 (01:18:51):
Supremacy thrives off of both policies and laws. And that's
the reason you see desantists, you see the governor of Texas.
You see all these folks trying to change the laws
and trying to change the policies so that they can
then continue to erode people's rights. And that's why we
have to stay woke, and that's why we have to
continue to put a spotlight on this and we've got
to continue.

Speaker 14 (01:19:10):
To fight.

Speaker 1 (01:19:12):
And again, just for everybody, especially for the not bright
yahoos over at Fox News. Just so we understand. Here,
go to my iPad. This is called a fact check.
Every single House Republican voted against investigating Neo Nazis in

(01:19:36):
the military. You will not see that discussed by Fox
and Friends, by you Will Caine, Rachel compos Duffy, Peter
heck Seth, or the really unfunny Greg Gutfield. Why because
you will not discuss something when it's actually your audience.

(01:19:58):
You're watching rollingd markin unfiltered black Star Network. We come back,
We'll talk with the head of the Democratic Party in Florida,
Ron de Santis. He is at ground zero of leading
this attack and what he's doing in Florida he wants
to do for the country. Back at the moment.

Speaker 30 (01:20:17):
When we talk about blackness and what happens in black culture,
we're about covering these things that matter to us, us
speaking to our issues and concerns.

Speaker 1 (01:20:27):
This is a genuine people power movement, a lot of
stuff that we're not getting.

Speaker 8 (01:20:32):
You get it when you spread the words.

Speaker 1 (01:20:33):
We wish to plead our own cause. To long have
others spoken for us. We cannot tell our own story
if we can't pay for it. This is about covering
us invest in black on media. Your dollars matter. We
don't have to keep asking them to cover ourself, So
please support us in what we do. Folks. We want

(01:20:54):
to hit two thousand people fifty dollars this month, waits
one hundred thousand dollars. We're behind one hundred thousand, so
we want to hit that. You All money makes this possible.

Speaker 15 (01:21:21):
Next right here on the frequency the woman they called
the Gifted Eye, hip hop celebrity photographer Cory Soldier. She's
some massive storyteller that captured the history of hip hops
through the lens of her camera.

Speaker 4 (01:21:34):
Tupac comes out the next thing.

Speaker 16 (01:21:36):
You know, you didn't know who they were at first.
You just seen all these dudes just come rushing the stage.
Did you realize Biggy gets the bottle of champagne.

Speaker 4 (01:21:45):
He pops it open, raise it on the crowd.

Speaker 1 (01:21:48):
He drinks the bottle.

Speaker 15 (01:21:49):
Cory Soldier, the hip hop celebrity photographer, joining me right
here in the next episode of The Frequency on the
Blackstar Network.

Speaker 1 (01:21:57):
Well you make friend him.

Speaker 5 (01:22:01):
Hi, my name is Brecia Webb, and you're watching Roland
Martin unfiltered.

Speaker 35 (01:22:05):
Aw Well, I like a nice filter usually, but we
can be unfiltered.

Speaker 1 (01:22:42):
All right, So all suff that you saw me just
lay out that Fox News cannot stand being talked about.
We're seeing happen in real time in Florida. Okay, we're
seeing happening in real time in Florida. It's happening right now, folks.
And Ronda Santas, the governor of Florida. He is the
one who is really, really, really leading that efforts. He
just signed into law a bill that basically cleared no money,

(01:23:05):
get me spent on diversity, equity inclusion in Florida.

Speaker 16 (01:23:08):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:23:08):
It changes how race is being taught in the Florida classrooms.
You see the anti gay bills, you see all the
different things that are happening there. And so he wants
to and he's doing all of this because he wants
to create the blueprint to say this is what we're
doing in Florida and what I want to do around
the rest of the country. That's one of the reasons
why he's now barnstorming. In fact, he is so shameless,

(01:23:29):
and the Republicans are there. They actually even passed a
bill shielding his travel records so the people in Florida
who are paying for it won't see where he's traveling.
Nicki Freeze, he has a far Democratic Party and is
the one who is there to counter and counter him
and fight him there. And NICKI glad to have you
in studio here in DC. Okay, So, first of all,

(01:23:49):
before he went on, you said, today there's an event
at the White House, and President Biden talked about.

Speaker 20 (01:23:56):
Ye white nationalism. I mean, we were there today.

Speaker 3 (01:23:59):
It's Jewish Heritage Month and so there was a big
reception at the White House today and it came up.
It was part of his speech about how we all
have to stick together and combat hatred because you're going
after you know, those that are black in our United States,
or immigrants and Jews.

Speaker 20 (01:24:15):
He's coming after all of us.

Speaker 1 (01:24:16):
So for Harris Falkner and Fox News, who said Biden
doesn't bring these things in front up in front of
white people.

Speaker 20 (01:24:22):
Well, there was no one, we were all white in
the room.

Speaker 1 (01:24:24):
Come out. I mean like literally, that was the whole deal.
Oh you know he won't say these things in front
of white people. And I'm kind of like, h he
kind of has. But again it but it shows you
again what the strategy is. And I keep trying to
tell everybody Trump's whole deal was to stoke white fear.
That's what. And you saw an increase in those folks,

(01:24:47):
how rapid they've gotten and that's the that's their blueprint.
That's what the Santus is doing, That's what Abbott is doing.
And they now realize, oh they're no longer is a penalty,
So we can now just say all kinds of crazy
stuff and do crazy stuff because there's an appetite now
for the audience, and conservative meaning is going to give
us cover.

Speaker 20 (01:25:05):
That's correct and not my conservative media is giving them cover.
The courts are now giving them cover.

Speaker 3 (01:25:10):
So as we're sitting here and know this too, that
this legislative session, he got that shirt sixteen million dollars
for legal defense bills, and the Republicans are saying, well,
democrats stop suing us. I was like, well, stop stepping
on my constitutional rights. But that's what's happening, is that
now he's stacked the courts in all these states, have
stacked the courts. So even if we are finding there

(01:25:30):
are unconstitutionality issues here, who's coming to RII back to
the basics of voting. That is the only way that
we're going to get back democracy here.

Speaker 1 (01:25:39):
And the thing here is that. And then I'm more
talking about how how you connect the dots again. Super
majority in Florida, so Republicans they don't have to listen
to Democrats. The same thing in a number of these
southern states. And so there's so many Democrats who keep
being fixated on national elections. Not really there's a tremendous

(01:26:01):
amounts of the power in the states, and in many
ways they've said, Okay, y'all could do whatever y'all want.
In DC, we're gonna we're gonna unleash our power. Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama,
North Carolina now with one Democratic flipp and they now
have a super majority in North Carolina. I think they're
voting as we speak to override the governor's abortion veto

(01:26:22):
South Carolina, and we could go on on and on.
In fact, the only reason South Carolina didn't pass that
abortion bill because you actually had some Republican women who
stood up and said, hey, this this has gone to
them far. We're seeing this. They are they are wielding
their power.

Speaker 3 (01:26:39):
Correct, they're wielding their power, and they're doing everything with
their power to make sure they stay in power. Yep,
so everything to suppress folks. I mean, look what happened
to last year. Desantus arrested twenty individuals that were returning
citizens right before the election.

Speaker 1 (01:26:53):
Yep.

Speaker 20 (01:26:53):
So what do you think happened?

Speaker 3 (01:26:54):
Everybody who is returning citizen who we've all worked so
hard to get back onto the roles get back into
society all stayed home on a.

Speaker 1 (01:27:00):
Chilling effect because they were so pissed off with desbind
and Machina Mead others did with the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition,
and they are afraid those one point four million people
are going to vote against them, which is why they
then went back in and change the rules. But say
oh no, no, no, you're got to pay all your
fines and everything off before oh you can actually get
your right to vote, and in those cases, charteris all
got tossed, all.

Speaker 20 (01:27:20):
Of them, all of them got tossed. But they keep
now going.

Speaker 3 (01:27:23):
And now they've got this power. So they're changing the
voting laws. Now they're changing all this stuff with education,
and so they're doing everything. And look at the jerry
mandering of the districts. First time in history. DeSantis writes
the maps and draws the congressional maps.

Speaker 1 (01:27:37):
And you know what he learn it blew off his
own party. No, I'm gonna do it.

Speaker 20 (01:27:40):
I'm going to do it.

Speaker 3 (01:27:41):
And you know when he announced them, he announced and
launched it on Martin Luther King Day.

Speaker 8 (01:27:46):
Why do you do that?

Speaker 20 (01:27:47):
To go after the Voting Rights Act?

Speaker 3 (01:27:49):
This has been their plan, trying to dismantle the minority
access districts. Took out Lawson out of his seat, and
now we're still in the courts.

Speaker 20 (01:27:55):
This is what they do. So now that they have power,
they want to make sure they do everything their power.

Speaker 14 (01:28:00):
To keep it.

Speaker 1 (01:28:01):
So I had a meeting yesterday and we were talking
about preparing for twenty twenty four. And the thing that
I have said to Democrats, to progressives, to all the
people who clearly who are trying to oppose what we're seeing.
I said, folks, you can't be waiting for May of
twenty twenty four. You can't be waiting for January. I said,

(01:28:25):
there should be right now, massive voter education. Explain to
people one what the opposition is doing, two where Democrats
have accomplished, three what they plan to accomplish, and laying
the stakes out what will happen. This is what America
will look like, what the state will look like if
these folks continue to do more. We saw how they

(01:28:46):
silenced the folks in Tennessee. They silenced the transgenior elected
official in Montana, they silence the non binary woman in Oklahoma.
They're using their power to say you can't even talk.

Speaker 3 (01:28:59):
And you know what the crazy part is, they're doing
it under the church. They're doing it all under religion.
And that there's so many of the speeches that I've
heard God told me to do this. This is all
about God. You know, I believe in a God that
you know wants equality, justice, you know, making sure that
you're respecting one another. But this is their game plan.

(01:29:20):
It is to shut out everybody who is an opposition.
That is not what democracy is about, and that's not
how this country was built. This country was built on
giving everybody an opportunity, and truthfully, that's not how it started,
but that's how we are every single day trying to
make this a more perfect union. And yes, we've got
to be starting now talking to everybody in our state,
in our country of what is happening on the ground

(01:29:41):
and the impact of these elections. And you're right, local elections,
state elections are much more impactful than that what's happening
in Congress.

Speaker 1 (01:29:48):
So how do how do you how are you trying
to reach that disaffected voter, try to reach that independent voter,
trying to reach that disaffected black voter. Because Florida is
a perfect example of how those things have disintegrated. What

(01:30:09):
used to be a blue state then became a purple
state now and very much as a red state. And
so the people have simply said they just totally just
checked out.

Speaker 3 (01:30:18):
Yeah, I mean, it's going back onto the ground. I
mean that is something that you always have to do.
That knocking on doors and being able to have that
one on one conversation is really what is so essential here.

Speaker 20 (01:30:27):
And unfortunately the Democratic Party in Florida.

Speaker 3 (01:30:29):
Didn't do that for the last couple of election cycles,
and so now we're having to play catch up that
all of the narrative. Rond de Santas has taken all
the oxygen out of the room in Florida, and so
to have a conversation when I was out there, you know,
pounding the pavement for years. The first time that I
called him a dictator was in March of twenty twenty.
Everybody thought I had lost my mind. Oh my god,

(01:30:50):
she called him a dictator. I said, you're right, I'm
watching what is happening.

Speaker 20 (01:30:55):
And so we have to get back.

Speaker 3 (01:30:56):
Onto the ground, back onto door knocking, having those conversations,
going to areas where we haven't been in many, many years,
and to have those conversations about what exactly is happening
to our state, into our country.

Speaker 20 (01:31:07):
And God forbid that Ron de Santis becomes president.

Speaker 3 (01:31:10):
Of the United States, you and I are going to
end up in jail somewhere because he's going to use
the power of the police to do something to take
away our rights.

Speaker 1 (01:31:18):
And I don't think people if people will say, oh,
you know, that's hyperboctly, No, it is abundantly clear, yes,
what their strategy is so tight. One second, we come back.
We're going to bring our panel. They got their questions,
they can ask Nick Kid as well. Again, Folks, I'm
telling y'all understand, they are executing their game plan. And
if you think what is happening in Florida, in Texas

(01:31:40):
and Mississippi at these places they're just one offs, then
you must be in a coma. Folks, be sure to

Speaker 2 (01:32:32):
Next on the Black Table with me Greg Call, we
look at one of the most influential and permanent Black
Americans of the twentieth century.

Speaker 1 (01:32:41):
His work literally changed the world.

Speaker 2 (01:32:44):
Among other things, he played a major role in creating
the United Nations. He was the first African American and
first person of color to win the Nobel Peace Prize,
and yet today he is hardly a household. With nat
we're talking, of course about Ralph J.

Speaker 8 (01:33:00):
Bunch.

Speaker 2 (01:33:02):
A new book refers to him as the absolutely Indispensable Maid.

Speaker 41 (01:33:06):
His lifelong interest and passion in racial justice, specifically in
the form of colonialism, and he saw his work as
an activist and advocate for the black community here in
the United States as just the other side of the
coin of his work trying to roll back European Empire

(01:33:27):
and Africa.

Speaker 2 (01:33:28):
Author cal Rastilla will join us to share his incredible story.
That's on the next Black Table here on the Black
Star Network.

Speaker 18 (01:33:42):
I'm Farahi Muhammad, live from la and this is the culture.
The culture has a two way conversation, you and me.
We talk about the stories politics, the good, the bad,
to the downright ugly. So join our community every day
at three pm Eastern and let your voice be heard.
We're all in this together, so let's talk about it

(01:34:03):
and see what kind of trouble we can get into.
It's the culture week days at three only on the
Black Saw Network.

Speaker 1 (01:34:13):
My name is Charlie Wilson.

Speaker 4 (01:34:15):
Hi, I'm Sally, and I'm down here with you. Everybody.

Speaker 18 (01:34:18):
This man Fred Hammond, and you're watching Roland Martin my
man unfiltered.

Speaker 8 (01:34:27):
M m m m m m.

Speaker 14 (01:35:17):
M m m.

Speaker 31 (01:35:25):
M m.

Speaker 8 (01:35:28):
M m m m m m.

Speaker 1 (01:35:39):
All right, folks, welcome back rolling Mard Unfiltered. We're talking
with Nicki Freeds of course, at least for a Democratic Party.
Questions for our panel, rand of you.

Speaker 33 (01:35:45):
First, I would just love to know you know this
is my fail DEI, and I would just love to
know why you think that.

Speaker 43 (01:35:54):
The focus Well, I have my suspicions why that they
always talk about d I is soiate it with Black
Americans And it seems as if people are comfortable with
us losing programs when it comes to Black Americans.

Speaker 33 (01:36:08):
And why is there not more just information out there
that it affects everything? It affects women's rights, it affects
gay rights, it affects you know, immigration, and.

Speaker 13 (01:36:17):
Affects Jewish rights.

Speaker 33 (01:36:19):
And because it seems that way we could have much
more of an impact and that people would you fight
back against the things that the.

Speaker 13 (01:36:26):
SANTIS is doing.

Speaker 3 (01:36:28):
And you're absolutely correct, and we do talk about that
because you're right that the DEI aspects of our college
education and even just in the classrooms, it impacts everybody,
you know, as somebody of the Jewish faith, you know,
Jewish studies, we're on the chopping block too, same thing
with Asian studies. And we now have a second black
female student body president at the University of Florida, and

(01:36:49):
I am scared to death for her that she's going
to try to spend money on Pride student Union, Black
History Month, Jewish Awareness Month, name the organization, and the
general counsel from the University of Florida's no, no, no,
you can't do that. And so it's going to be
incumbent upon us who are talking about these issues to
make sure, as we've always done, building the ride coalitions,

(01:37:10):
to make sure everything is like kind of that that
same poem that we all have been hearing for our
entire lifetimes.

Speaker 20 (01:37:15):
You know, first they came for the socialist, but I
wasn't a socialist, and you keep going on and on.
People need to realize that we're not just talking about
Black America.

Speaker 3 (01:37:22):
We're talking about every marginalized community that doesn't have a
seat of the table.

Speaker 13 (01:37:29):
Thank you.

Speaker 33 (01:37:29):
I'm hoping to see more of that because I think
that's how we will impact and have some power when
it comes to upcoming elections.

Speaker 20 (01:37:35):
Absolutely well stop them.

Speaker 31 (01:37:38):
Yeah well, Nikki, thank you for your work in Florida
and beyond. You know, they say Ron DeSantis is actually
operating from a nineteen sixties segregation as playbook.

Speaker 4 (01:37:47):
Do you feel that that's there's truth in that statement.

Speaker 3 (01:37:50):
I do, and not just nineteen sixties you know playbook
on that, but I'm going back to even nineteen sixties
in Cuba. I mean, he's doing everything possible to take
people rights, separate out our country, to divide our state,
and yes, every opportunity that he has to.

Speaker 20 (01:38:07):
Divide us on racial lines, he does so.

Speaker 3 (01:38:10):
And then he tries to hide behind you know, he
brings you know, one or two black families to the
State of the Union address and say, look, I've got
black friends, This is a scary time in Florida and
a scary time across the country to think that somebody
like this can get anywhere close to the White House.

Speaker 9 (01:38:29):
To Ron.

Speaker 34 (01:38:31):
Hello, Nikki, thank you for your work in Florida. My
question is, dessandas and Florida Republicans are very good at
crafting emotional messages to speak to the heart of their constituency.
What are the Democrats doing to tell to help Florida
people who are Florida Democrats understand the urgency of voting
and pushing back against these messages down in Florida.

Speaker 3 (01:38:50):
You know, we've got a kind of a mixed opportunity here,
you know, one we've got to we've got to fight
back about these issues. And if you saw any of
our Democrats in the House and in the Senate this
session pouring their emotional hearts out each one, each argument
was so heart filled and to know that you were
telling your personal stories. We have the first black gay

(01:39:12):
senator and telling his story every single time, telling the
women that we're in the chambers talking about their personal stories.
As we're going to a six week abortion ban in Florida,
and there is that emotional conversation, but we also have
to talk about what is also happening in Florida. We
have the largest teacher shortage in the entire nation, a
property crisis. People can't afford their insurance. People can't afford

(01:39:36):
their mortgages, they can't afford their rent, they can't afford
their housing. We've got students that are leaving our state
because they don't want to be in any of our
higher ed systems. And now the next catastrophe that's happening
in our state is the immigration bill that he just
signed last week, which we have eight hundred thousand migrant
workers in the state of Florida. That is under our

(01:39:56):
three top economic incentives in our state, tourism, construction.

Speaker 20 (01:40:02):
And agriculture. So I can't wait and talking about black
sear you.

Speaker 3 (01:40:06):
Know that, you know you're talking about you know all
the all the people of color have taken.

Speaker 20 (01:40:10):
All of our jobs.

Speaker 3 (01:40:10):
Well, great Florida, Now you're going to have about eight
hundred thousand jobs. Can't wait to see the lines of
the Republicans coming to.

Speaker 20 (01:40:18):
Take those jobs. It's not going to happen.

Speaker 3 (01:40:20):
So part of the story that we have to be
telling in Florida is, yes, to be combating all of
the insanity and the culture wars, but then hitting them
also and the pocketbooks because the people of our state
are hurting today financially well.

Speaker 1 (01:40:35):
I think that's where again when you start talking about voters,
and what I explain to people all the time is
when you talk about Republicans, you have obviously you got
the hardcore down Trump maga people. It does not matter.
They don't believe. They believe nothing if it doesn't come
out of his mouth. So you're dealing with that. But
then you have those those Republicans who are national security Republicans.

(01:40:57):
They're both for anything with the military. Then you have
the law enforce publicans that you have, the tax Republicans
that you got, the evangelicals in the culture warriors. I
still fundamentally believe even when you look at these polling
right now, people talk about all how low Biden is polling.
First of all, polling is low also because a lot
of people are looking at his age. And the bottom

(01:41:19):
line is, well, I keep telling people, you could get
caught up in all of the silly stuff, but if
they actually stop and look at the laws that are
being passed. I mean, in my native Texas, they literally
are trying to strip any early voting location off of
college campuses. Eight thousand or more Texas A and M

(01:41:41):
is a conservative university, Bresis County removed the early voting
location from that campus. And I've been saying to all
these white students, don't think voter suppression is about black people.
And you know people, they coming after you too. And
so I think that a lot of people again don't
really understan that the drive run is happening in all

(01:42:03):
of these states. What you're seeing the bills passed being
passed in Florida and Texas and other places. They absolutely
want to nationalize.

Speaker 3 (01:42:11):
Absolutely, And I don't if you saw, but he just
signed a piece of legislation this week that a doctor,
a health insurance company, and a hospital can deny coverage
if they do not personally agree with.

Speaker 20 (01:42:24):
You, like have their pomels of beliefs.

Speaker 3 (01:42:27):
So again, as somebody from the Jewish faith, if I
went into a doctor's office and they were a white nationalist,
they may not serve me, they may not actually give
me health care.

Speaker 20 (01:42:36):
This is what's happening. This is real life.

Speaker 3 (01:42:39):
People are going to have prevented of getting now access
to even healthcare. And this is their playbook. And this
is why they're going after higher end because what has
higher education been doing for one hundred years? Creating democrats?
Educated democrats?

Speaker 1 (01:42:52):
Yeah, because once people actually start reading and get educated,
they go, oh, you know what, they're idiots, correct, and
that's why they hate the college educated folk. But the
last point though, this is also though, where you have
to have these and I will see these white Democratic
consultants who stop thinking that's the only voters to go after,

(01:43:12):
because part of the problem is they keep telling these candidates, oh,
ignore those folks with the high school diplomas or who
didn't finish. Is only talk to the suburbs, only college educated. No,
that's how you lose.

Speaker 20 (01:43:24):
That's correct, And that's how I won in twenty eighteen.

Speaker 3 (01:43:27):
And as Commissioner of Agriculture is that we knew we
had to turn out the blue but we went to
the red counties and we went to the red counties
and some rural areas and talked to those so that
we lost by less in those areas.

Speaker 20 (01:43:37):
Right, it has to be a full equation that.

Speaker 1 (01:43:39):
You lid to sixty five, thirty five, sixty forty, not
eighty twenty.

Speaker 3 (01:43:42):
Correct, and you got to talk to everybody because you
don't know that you can't put people into boxes anymore.
Because some people are single issues and right now they're
Republican Party.

Speaker 20 (01:43:52):
And I confess this.

Speaker 3 (01:43:53):
My dad is a diehard Republican. The conversation when I
took over as party chair. I know, by the way, Dad,
I got arrested for causing good trouble on abortion.

Speaker 20 (01:44:02):
That was an interesting conversation.

Speaker 3 (01:44:04):
But the Republican Party that I heard about growing up
was about small government, less taxes, you know, free market
home rule.

Speaker 1 (01:44:14):
That's not today, that's us all gone, that's all gone.

Speaker 3 (01:44:17):
And so there are even those true conservative Republicans who
understand this is not my party anymore.

Speaker 20 (01:44:23):
And we, just as the Democrats, need to make.

Speaker 3 (01:44:26):
Sure that our umbrella is large enough that we are
capturing in those Republicans as well.

Speaker 1 (01:44:31):
All Right, the cold, good luck, you got a tall
task on your hands down Land, Florida.

Speaker 3 (01:44:35):
I do, but I feel energized, and I feel that
we have the wind under us that we're going to
make some headway.

Speaker 1 (01:44:41):
All right, keep causing good trouble always, all right, folks,
we'll come back. We're gonna have a marketplace segment where
we're talking to a sistant who owns a snack company,
Gluten Free. We'll tell you all about it next on
roland Mark and Unfilted on the Black stud Network.

Speaker 44 (01:45:04):
On the next Get Wealthy with me Deborah Owens, America's
wealth coach. Nurses are the backbone of the head care
industry and yet only seven percent of them are black.
What's the reason for that low number, Well, a lack
of opportunities and growth in their profession.

Speaker 4 (01:45:23):
Joining us on the next Get Wealthy is Needy Barnanilla.

Speaker 44 (01:45:27):
She's going to be sharing exactly what nurses need to
do and what approach they need to take to take
ownership of their success.

Speaker 42 (01:45:36):
So the Blackness Collaborative really spawned from a place and
a desire to create opportunities to uplift each other, those
of us in a profession to also look and reach
back and create and create pipelines and opportunities.

Speaker 4 (01:45:49):
For other nurses like us. That's right here on Get
Wealthy only on Black Star Hendrom.

Speaker 18 (01:46:00):
I'm Faraji Muhammad live from la and this is the culture.
The culture is a two way conversation. Here and me,
we talk about the stories, politics, the good the bad
and the downright ugly. So join our community every day
at three pm Eastern and let your voice be heard. Hey,
we're all in this together, so let's talk about it

(01:46:22):
and see what kind of trouble.

Speaker 8 (01:46:23):
We can get into.

Speaker 18 (01:46:24):

Speaker 1 (01:47:02):
All right, folks, you know snack Queen Randy has been
waiting for this segment. She I think she personally requested
to be on today's show, My Next Guest, Folks, created
her own line of snacks. Now you know, we're now
living in the world, and I don't even know what
it's all started from, because I didn't nobody growing up.

(01:47:23):
Didn't nobody what the hell gluten was. We ate every
damn thing of you to eat. You just starved. But
she's created a line here of of gluten free, allergy
friendly snacks. All right, And I know you might be saying, really, yeah,
oh yeah, African American and so it's called fully Charge

(01:47:43):
allergy free Snacks. The tagline here says, you won't taste
the difference, but your body will. All right. That's kind
of interesting here, and so we're gonna talk about what happened,
how did she create this company? And so joining us
down is a Cultur, the co founder of Fully Charged

(01:48:03):
algae friendly Snacks. Glad to have you on the show.
So what do you call? We call you al Cultur.

Speaker 4 (01:48:10):

Speaker 41 (01:48:12):
Huh.

Speaker 4 (01:48:13):
My first name is A and my last name is coature.

Speaker 1 (01:48:16):
So your first name is A.

Speaker 4 (01:48:18):
Yes, the first letter of that at forget.

Speaker 1 (01:48:20):
I bet you, I bet you. In class, teachers like
what's your first name? A Ity was like, no, no, no,
I want to what's your first name?

Speaker 8 (01:48:26):
You like this? A?

Speaker 1 (01:48:28):
All right? So what happened? What caused you to launch
this line?

Speaker 4 (01:48:34):
Thank you so much for having me, mister Rowland.

Speaker 17 (01:48:37):
I've launched this line in twenty twenty with my mother
after I had a difficult pregnancy due to food allergies.

Speaker 4 (01:48:44):
She's a registered nurse, worked in the emergency room. I
was pregnant and I thought that I was eating healthy
by eating soy and tofu.

Speaker 17 (01:48:52):
And all those other things that they tell moms to eat,
and staying away from pork and beef and things that they.

Speaker 4 (01:48:58):
Told us not to eat.

Speaker 17 (01:49:00):
And the entire time I was making myself sick because
I had a wheat allergy, a dairy allergy, a corn allergy,
and a soy allergy.

Speaker 1 (01:49:08):
Damn, damn. I mean you had to like that. You
had the quartet going on, all right, So okay, So
were you allergic to these things pre pregnancy or was
it developed during pregnancy.

Speaker 4 (01:49:23):
I actually used to have reactions and didn't know where
they were coming from.

Speaker 17 (01:49:27):
I always saw that I grew up with exzema or
sorilesis or cradle cap when I was little, but I
had no idea that it was related to the foods
that I was eating.

Speaker 1 (01:49:36):
Also, you just thought you had itchy skin. Yes, I
ain't know what it is, and so all right, so
you're pregnant and then you had this reaction and so
you go to the hospital. What then you get tested.

Speaker 17 (01:49:47):
I go to the hospital and have an emergency c section,
and they still don't know what it is until they
give my baby the milk. And when they gave the
baby the milk, and my daughter started having a reaction.

Speaker 4 (01:49:58):
We knew then that it was a food reaction.

Speaker 1 (01:50:02):
Wow, wow okay, and so and then all of a sudden,
you go, all right, at all these different alities, there's
a whole bun of stuff I can't eat. But clearly
you want to be like Randy, you want to snack
when watching that late night movie. Right.

Speaker 4 (01:50:17):
Yes, I was actually a mom on the go, and
I was a single mom.

Speaker 17 (01:50:20):
I was going through a divorce, and so I didn't
have time to do all of the time to do
all of that baking and.

Speaker 4 (01:50:26):
Stuff that they see on YouTube and other channels. And
so I told my mom.

Speaker 17 (01:50:30):
I was like, what is something that I can have
as a grab and go for me and the baby
that I don't actually have to make myself. And so
she started sending me product and then we were sitting
at home during the pandemic. I was on furlough from
my job, and so I said, why don't we test this,
why don't we see what other people think of it?

Speaker 4 (01:50:47):
And it kind of took off from.

Speaker 1 (01:50:48):
There, right, okay, So we've got so trust me. Randon's like,
why was it Iron Studio on day? Look at it?
I say, I see you. So we've got let's see here,
lemon and blueberry, many muffins. We got very very many muffins,

(01:51:09):
triple chocolate brownie bites, and then chocolate chip mini muffins.
So these are the four that you have, right.

Speaker 4 (01:51:18):
Yes, And we have Cinnamon's chiro donut drops, so that's right,
all right.

Speaker 1 (01:51:23):
I see cinnamon turio right here. Okay, so I see
these right here? All right? Then, So you started the
company win and how have sales been going.

Speaker 4 (01:51:30):
So we started the company in twenty twenty.

Speaker 17 (01:51:33):
We were a food service private label manufacturing company and
we started to just blow up.

Speaker 4 (01:51:38):
We started we had a corporate client.

Speaker 17 (01:51:40):
Microsoft was our first client that took us on, and
we started out with fifteen thousand.

Speaker 4 (01:51:45):
Bags, fifteen hundred bags from them.

Speaker 17 (01:51:47):
Then we ballooned up to ten thousand bags a month
from them a month.

Speaker 1 (01:51:52):
Yes, yeah, this is snack ass and Maco saw people.

Speaker 4 (01:51:57):
So we saw a lot of.

Speaker 17 (01:52:00):
Traction in the corporate cafeteria space and in the corporate
sales space. So we really stated private label wholesaling on
the food service side.

Speaker 4 (01:52:08):
We just recently launched to the public.

Speaker 17 (01:52:11):
We run about fifty seven thousand bags a month out
of our studios in both Seattle and Los Angeles, California,
where I'm based, and sales have been taking offer. In
our third year, we're in a profit, so we're grateful
to God for that, and so we're looking to just
scale and grow from here. Really started to create a
brand presence under our name, and not just in the

(01:52:31):
private label food service sector.

Speaker 1 (01:52:34):
Wow, all right, let's go to my panel. And every
time I have some damn snacks or some alcohol or
it's time I have this segment on Tuesday, I'm guaranteed
to get a damn text message from my daddy. You're
just gonna send me talking about seeing me a care package.
I'm like, I ain't eve through the segment yet, he

(01:52:56):
already texted. All right, Randy, going with your question, I've.

Speaker 13 (01:53:01):
Go congratulations on what it is, just a smart idea.

Speaker 12 (01:53:04):
I was wondering if you could expand a little bit
about how allergies can show up in many of us.
I know that I certainly have a few allergies, and
same thing I thought I had, you know, just exima
or something, and it.

Speaker 13 (01:53:18):
Turned out that I have a slight dairy allergy.

Speaker 33 (01:53:22):
And so if you just explained, because I think a
lot of people don't realize that they actually have allergies instead.

Speaker 13 (01:53:26):
Of just ecima or asthma.

Speaker 4 (01:53:30):
Yes, it's something that's prevalent in people of color.

Speaker 17 (01:53:33):
We never realized it due to the processed foods that
we eat so tepically we look at the processed food
and our beef for and other items. We never look
at it in our pastries, our breads, our fruit drinks,
our orangees. Everything that we consume here.

Speaker 4 (01:53:48):
In America has added it in extra ingredients to preserve
the shelf life.

Speaker 17 (01:53:53):
And because people of colored and the marginalized communities tend
to consume those items more and less hole straight from
the earth, they have a tendency to be exposed to
those allergies at an early age, particularly those who took.

Speaker 4 (01:54:07):
On wilk wick or other forms of milk.

Speaker 17 (01:54:10):
We notice that children start to develop these allergies as
early as six to eight months, and then about the
time it's gone into their system and it's set there
for another twenty years. We're wondering why we're suffering from
mental illness, from depression, from anxiety. All of those have
had direct correlation to food allergies. So you wonder why
you may drink a glass of wine, have a bit

(01:54:31):
of pasta, eat some bread, or you may eat seafood,
and you have a wonderful time while you're eating it,
and then the next two or three days you're experiencing
all types of symptoms. Usually it isn't something that's related
to what you naturally see. It's something that went inside
of your body.

Speaker 16 (01:54:50):
Thank you for that.

Speaker 1 (01:54:51):
All right, So I know I'm gonna have to like
a fight Randy over these pies because she is the
snack queen sitting here. Y, I want those tro the
turo cinnamon. Okay, I pad okay, I say that bad
for you because see I'm all about I'm all about chocolate. Uh,
everything in my life is chocolate, my car and flat

(01:55:15):
everybody's black in my life. I don't even mentioned with
vanilla ice cream. All right, let's uh, let's let's go
to a tot run with a question. We're just laughing.
That was off.

Speaker 9 (01:55:29):
Run.

Speaker 1 (01:55:30):
Go ahead.

Speaker 34 (01:55:32):
First of all, since congratulations on your success in launching
your business and the packaging looks amazing by the way,
my question is do you have any plans to expand in.

Speaker 14 (01:55:39):
A different markets?

Speaker 34 (01:55:40):
So maybe the partner with the larger chain to get
your get your product out.

Speaker 4 (01:55:45):
Yes, And actually we wanted to be very strategic.

Speaker 17 (01:55:47):
So we felt like starting out, we didn't want to
try to compete against people that were already being successful.
There's fifty brands on whole foodshelves or in target or
in your local brochure. So we wanted to go where
people needed us the most movie theaters, attractions, on the airport.

Speaker 4 (01:56:04):
And on planes.

Speaker 17 (01:56:05):
We want to be where the customer has to actually
have no other choice of what they can eat when
they have food allergies. So we're looking to expand we're
asking that you connect with us, promote us, talk about
us when you go in those types of places, so
that we can get a footprint where customers.

Speaker 4 (01:56:24):
Really need us and then they can take us home
and add us to their contry.

Speaker 1 (01:56:27):
So Mustapha, it says our alergae friendly promise. No gluten,
no eggs, no dairy, no soy, no nuts, no wheat,
no corn, no shell fish, no artificial sugars or sweetness,
no artificial flavors, colors, no preservatives, no gmo. Damn was
it a bag empty?

Speaker 4 (01:56:47):
Everything comes from the earth ingredients?

Speaker 1 (01:56:50):
Mustafa go right ahead?

Speaker 33 (01:56:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 31 (01:56:52):
Well, first of all, I appreciate everything coming from the earth.
That's incredibly important for our folks. And congratulations on the growth.
You know, there are lots of entrepreneurs who watched this show.
Can you talk about how you got that first deal
with Microsoft? What were the steps that you put in
place to make that happen?

Speaker 17 (01:57:09):
Well, Really, the biggest thing was that I was always
about sales. I'm a diehard retail girl. My first job
was in retail, so I was always raised with the
notion and grew up working in an environment that you
don't make money unless you get out there and sell.
And so I started reaching out to people that I
knew I had heard in articles or I had seen

(01:57:29):
on television that said that they had different food allergies
or they were observing some type of medically modified diet,
and then I started stalking them. I did reach out
to distributors and brokers as well, but I really wanted
to make sure that I first sent them the product,
no strings attached, Just try it, tell me how you
like it, the good, bad, and the ugly, and I

(01:57:51):
would modify the product. So I would really encourage entrepreneurs,
really know what it is that you're selling. You know
your numbers, know your cost of goods. Really be focused
on how you can develop a plan to get those
cells in before you start creating too much product.

Speaker 4 (01:58:08):
And don't be afraid of what you believe in. If
you know that your product is good and you.

Speaker 17 (01:58:12):
Can stand by everything that you claim, all your captors
is just keep asking, seeking and not until it opens up.

Speaker 1 (01:58:20):
So is that last statement there AND's on this package
here based upon your faith where you said all things
are possible for one who believes.

Speaker 4 (01:58:29):
Yes, it absolutely was.

Speaker 17 (01:58:30):
Like I said, I was going through a divorce, I
was furloughed off my job, I was a single mom,
and I really did believe in this product and I
knew that.

Speaker 4 (01:58:39):
It could sell.

Speaker 17 (01:58:40):
But I also know I'm definitely shy, and I have
trouble of socializing and getting out among people because I'm
such an introvert. And so I knew that if I
could do anything, I know good food and I know
how to sell to people, and so I just kept
trying to push past it. And honestly, Roland, you here,
a mister Roland, you really instrumental in that as well.

(01:59:01):
I had a vision in my mind that I was
one of the first product commercials that was going to
be on your programming and so, and I stand by
that goal. And so I know you're not going to
talk to me unless I'm moving real numbers and real products,
and so it gave me something to work towards.

Speaker 4 (01:59:18):
So I wanted to make sure that we were bringing
in at least a million in sales. I wanted to
make sure.

Speaker 17 (01:59:23):
That we were consistent in our customer service and our
shipping and distribution, so that when you have Hostess, you
have Freedom Lag, you have PepsiCo, you have fully charged snacks,
and we're going to be bringing a line of commercials
that can help you so that you don't have to
even reach out to them to get your commercials. That
you have minority based businesses that are profitable and that

(01:59:43):
can meet those advertising goals that you need.

Speaker 4 (01:59:46):
And we don't have to go to white on media,
but we.

Speaker 17 (01:59:49):
Also don't have to go to white owned consumer products
as well. That African Americans like myself can take up
all of those commercial segments that you have and we
can all keep it in the families.

Speaker 1 (02:00:01):
That's why. But but this is I mean, so what
you just laid out is precisely why one the show
was created the network was created, but also while this
segment was created, because the reality is, and this is
what people don't understand a lot. I keep telling a
lot of people don't understand the business of the business. Uh,
the reality is. And when when you're out here and

(02:00:24):
you're trying to start something, I mean, you're trying to
get some sort of attention. And I've had people come
to me. I've had other people say, man, you should
be charging people for these segments, and I said, no,
I said, We're not gonna do that. It's gonna be
a news segment. I said. Now, if there are people
who who come on, if they give back, I said,
that's they advertise or they just give like our fan club.

(02:00:47):
I said, that's wonderful. But the whole point is is
this segment is all about just just giving people an opportunity,
like I'm wearing a pair of shoes from one of
the one of the companies that we had on you know,
on the show. That that's the whole point how we
use Because doctor King said on April third, nineteen sixty eight,
when he spoke a Mason Temple, everybody talks about the

(02:01:07):
mountaintop part, but he said, black people individually are poor,
yet collectively we are wealthy, he said. And when we
move as a collective, we can change this country and
we change this world. So that's what this is about,
using this show, using the platform to give folks like
your platform. And we've other people who've come on and
they said they're skit that they sold hundreds of thousands

(02:01:29):
of dollars. Sales have increased. I was doing Angela Yee's
show and it was a black owned body scrub company
and they ran heard and were like, yo, after we
could get a rolling show. I mean, our sales went up.
But that's the whole point. We can't talk about black
economics and black self empowerment and bill black and by

(02:01:51):
black if folks don't actually do it. That's the whole point.
And so I appreciate that. And look, because you're right, listen,
it ain't easy out here trying to get these folks
to advertise, and the opportunities for us are absolutely about
creating our own and being able to showcase what we're

(02:02:14):
able to do.

Speaker 8 (02:02:15):
So, Litten, we want to be able to support you.

Speaker 17 (02:02:17):
You know, we don't want to leave you out there
by yourself either. You know, I was really inspired as
well by mister Bellafonte and how he was able to
support so many of the endeavors of doctor King. And
so I just believe that all of us who has
a lane to work. I'm not necessarily in activists, So
I'm not in politics. I am a business owner, and
so if I can be able to help the movement
and help your calls in my way, that's.

Speaker 4 (02:02:39):
All we want to be able to do.

Speaker 1 (02:02:40):
All right, awesome, all right, So here's the deal. I'm
a chocolate lover.

Triple chocolate, try to triple chocolate brownie bites verse.

Speaker 1 (02:02:50):
I like light chocolate, dark chocolate. Some of y'all gonna

So this it's more like a brownie versus like a cookie.

Speaker 4 (02:03:03):
