She usually like the darker ones, and Drake is a
little lighter skinned than the average one day dated lately
because you know, honey, what's his name, what they last name,
Kanye West was of a darker hue than Drake, so
we don't think they could be together. But nevertheless, they're

Back in the day, when a man dated aef a
woman had more than two suitors, y'all didn't date them suitors.

doing this morning?
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Man, bless this morning, Happy to have you, good to
be on so.
Speaker 5 (09:29):
Good morning, brother man. Listen.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
There is so much happening this morning. Anybody that's watching
the news is aware of all of it. And I'm
I'm in an interesting place because so much of my
work has been about talking about issues.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
Of politics and engaging around issues of.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Justice and and trying to even mobilize some degree our
folk in a way to bring a life for us
that has better than any.
Speaker 5 (10:04):
Of our ancestors have ever had it.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
And it's interesting in the morning like today, where even
thinking about talking about some of the things that are
happening raise a higher level of fear and angst, whether
it's from a corporate standpoint where we have to protect.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
Our institutions, or even whether it's from a.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
Social standpoint where we're trying to navigate what is the
right way for us to respond to things. And I'm
just in such an interesting place because at every single step,
I just see fear winning. And whether it is violence
that we see that is a response to people's fear,
(10:45):
not even reality, whether it is policy that is driven
by those that want to use fear as a mechanism
of mobilizing people against each other who actually aren't enemy,
and convincing people that they that their their families are different,
that they want different things, that they value different things,
(11:07):
when they actually are just appealing to the need to
have somebody address their issues and allow somebody else to
become the enemy or or in some cases the reason
why they believe they're not getting something.
Speaker 5 (11:21):
When the leaders that are spewing this stuff know that
it's not real.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
Fear is really the greatest weapon that is destroying not
just America, but destroying so many of us, and fear
continues to be a weapon that is used against so
many people, the ignorant and non ignorant life, And so
in these kind of moments, my hope, Rich is that we.
Speaker 5 (11:49):
Some of us as people of faith, some of us
are people.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
Of that just believe in humanity, would would figure out
a way, even as we defend ourselves again those that
would attack our history, that would attack who we are,
that would attack our communities, that would attack us with policy,
that would that would weaponize police against us, that we
(12:12):
figure out how to not use fear in response to that,
and even as we defend ourselves and we are aggressive,
as I talked about before in Resistance, that we are
serious about figuring out ways that we don't use fear
to destroy ourselves and hating on each other and being
unwilling to work with each other and recognizing that as
(12:35):
much as sometimes we don't like each other, we got
to share destiny, and that my life is never going
to be amazing if your life is terrible, right, and Kay,
my life is never going to be prosperous if your life.
Speaker 5 (12:50):
Is rooted in survival.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
And I just want us to get to a place
not where we have some fake Kumbaya moment where we
all sit hands and and and cocoa and roast marshmallows
and act like Kumbaya is possible because there's never been
a time in the history of the world where that's real. However,
there is a possibility for us to realize, man, that
(13:12):
my life is never going to be exceptional if your
life is oppressed. And I want us to get to
a place where we don't let anybody else use spear
against us to divide us against each other. But even
if with our personality conflicts in some of our challenges,
and we recognize that hate on each other is much
(13:33):
a form of white supremacy.
Speaker 5 (13:36):
As those would attempt to use it against us. And
so what am I saying this morning?
Speaker 4 (13:40):
I'm saying this morning with all of the news around
the school shootings that have taken place, with the murder
of Charlie Kirk, with the police and the army and
the National Guard that is being sent to our cities,
with the fact that many people are still not able
to get jobs, with the reality that we feel less
(14:03):
safe than we ever had before.
Speaker 5 (14:05):
My point is that.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
Using fear even as a motivation to fight, versus leveraging
love as a way to defend ourselves and lift ourselves
at the same time.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
Has got to be what we commit ourselves to.
Speaker 4 (14:19):
And we're we're not going to save ourselves by giving
in to fear or weaponizing it. We're only going to
save ourselves by lifting a level of love that is
beyond what anybody in politics even has the capability of
talking about. But what communities have always understood is what's safe.
So y'all hit me a justestination. Let me know what
you think, how you're feeling, how you're navigating this moment
(14:40):
in time, and how you're pushing back there through loving
yourself in those regrounds.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
I love you, Hey, love you too, man, and let
everybody know how you can be
Speaker 5 (14:51):
Reached justination at iglus appreciate it.
Oh yeah, Hey, so we started from the bottom that were.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Here, Oh yeah, right here.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
You ever been a bride?
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Why hold it he half man, half woman?
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Yes, garye, you want to help you to the team.

Man, bless this morning, Happy to have you, good to
be on so.
Speaker 5 (09:29):
Good morning, brother man. Listen.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
There is so much happening this morning. Anybody that's watching
the news is aware of all of it. And I'm
I'm in an interesting place because so much of my
work has been about talking about issues.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
Of politics and engaging around issues of.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Justice and and trying to even mobilize some degree our
folk in a way to bring a life for us
that has better than any.
Speaker 5 (10:04):
Of our ancestors have ever had it.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
And it's interesting in the morning like today, where even
thinking about talking about some of the things that are
happening raise a higher level of fear and angst, whether
it's from a corporate standpoint where we have to protect.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
Our institutions, or even whether it's from a.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
Social standpoint where we're trying to navigate what is the
right way for us to respond to things. And I'm
just in such an interesting place because at every single step,
I just see fear winning. And whether it is violence
that we see that is a response to people's fear,
(10:45):
not even reality, whether it is policy that is driven
by those that want to use fear as a mechanism
of mobilizing people against each other who actually aren't enemy,
and convincing people that they that their their families are different,
that they want different things, that they value different things,
(11:07):
when they actually are just appealing to the need to
have somebody address their issues and allow somebody else to
become the enemy or or in some cases the reason
why they believe they're not getting something.
Speaker 5 (11:21):
When the leaders that are spewing this stuff know that
it's not real.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
Fear is really the greatest weapon that is destroying not
just America, but destroying so many of us, and fear
continues to be a weapon that is used against so
many people, the ignorant and non ignorant life, And so
in these kind of moments, my hope, Rich is that we.
Speaker 5 (11:49):
Some of us as people of faith, some of us
are people.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
Of that just believe in humanity, would would figure out
a way, even as we defend ourselves again those that
would attack our history, that would attack who we are,
that would attack our communities, that would attack us with policy,
that would that would weaponize police against us, that we
(12:12):
figure out how to not use fear in response to that,
and even as we defend ourselves and we are aggressive,
as I talked about before in Resistance, that we are
serious about figuring out ways that we don't use fear
to destroy ourselves and hating on each other and being
unwilling to work with each other and recognizing that as
(12:35):
much as sometimes we don't like each other, we got
to share destiny, and that my life is never going
to be amazing if your life is terrible, right, and Kay,
my life is never going to be prosperous if your life.
Speaker 5 (12:50):
Is rooted in survival.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
And I just want us to get to a place
not where we have some fake Kumbaya moment where we
all sit hands and and and cocoa and roast marshmallows
and act like Kumbaya is possible because there's never been
a time in the history of the world where that's real. However,
there is a possibility for us to realize, man, that
(13:12):
my life is never going to be exceptional if your
life is oppressed. And I want us to get to
a place where we don't let anybody else use spear
against us to divide us against each other. But even
if with our personality conflicts in some of our challenges,
and we recognize that hate on each other is much
(13:33):
a form of white supremacy.
Speaker 5 (13:36):
As those would attempt to use it against us. And
so what am I saying this morning?
Speaker 4 (13:40):
I'm saying this morning with all of the news around
the school shootings that have taken place, with the murder
of Charlie Kirk, with the police and the army and
the National Guard that is being sent to our cities,
with the fact that many people are still not able
to get jobs, with the reality that we feel less
(14:03):
safe than we ever had before.
Speaker 5 (14:05):
My point is that.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
Using fear even as a motivation to fight, versus leveraging
love as a way to defend ourselves and lift ourselves
at the same time.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
Has got to be what we commit ourselves to.
Speaker 4 (14:19):
And we're we're not going to save ourselves by giving
in to fear or weaponizing it. We're only going to
save ourselves by lifting a level of love that is
beyond what anybody in politics even has the capability of
talking about. But what communities have always understood is what's safe.
So y'all hit me a justestination. Let me know what
you think, how you're feeling, how you're navigating this moment
(14:40):
in time, and how you're pushing back there through loving
yourself in those regrounds.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
I love you, Hey, love you too, man, and let
everybody know how you can be
Speaker 5 (14:51):
Reached justination at iglus appreciate it.
