Speaker 1 (00:00):
And grind rising family, and thanks for making us part
of your morning ritual again. Later, scholar and Grill Professor
James Small will take over our classroom. Professor Small will
discuss if we need a black agenda going into the
new year. Professor Small will navigate the social, political, religious,
and financial aspects of this topic. But before we hear
from Professor Small, the Mooney Twins sales of Paul's adult sons.
(00:22):
He used to open for Dick Gregory on their dad.
Back in the day. They would call themselves the conscious comedians.
Now they're talking money. We're going to talk about comedy first,
the state of comedy in twenty twenty five, and then
we're going to discuss the volatility of the cryptocurrency market.
But before we do all of that, we gotta Kevin
to open the classroom doors for us. This morning, Grand Rising, Kevin.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Grand Arising, Carl Nelson. We have officially opened the Carl
Nelson Show University once again. Everybody, grab your pens and
papers and a glass of water, because it's going to
be quite a morning. Quite a morning if I could
say anything about it.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
But meanwhile, how are you feeling, Karl?
Speaker 1 (01:00):
I'm still learning I'm still learning. I want folks to
have an open mind every time they listen to this program.
I got to have an open mind. You can't learn
if you your mind is close by the way. But
that's a tip. You just have an open mind when
you hear things.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
It's like a good a good parachute. You want it.
You want to open him at the right.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Side, man, the Mooney Twins, if that was funny? Do
you think the Mooney Twins laughing about I think so okay.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
I think I got them all, you know, in the
palm of my hand. This morning, Yeah, I felt like
I was waking Uh. I was waking Dwayne up. But
he said he's good. We were talking to tone down
the moment. What's making headlights this morning?
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Man, there's so much going on.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
I just had to, you know, choose where we're gonna start.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
President and Trump was is meeting with mom and Donnie
to meet in the over office tomorrow after months of bickering.
Remember previously he criticized the mayor elect Laboring, labeling him
a communist. He threatened to deport him. Now he's gonna
lead him. You know, he's confirmed.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Is that part of his is do you think that's
part of of Trump's uh makeup, that narcisistic make up.
Taco Trump always taps out, or was he Trump chickens out,
chickens out, so he makes all these you know, grandiose things,
and then he backs down because the tariffs. I'm gonna
peels him back. Everything he does, he comes back. He said,
(02:23):
do you think that's part of a personality sort er
or that's a negotiation tactic.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
I think he might be bipolar.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
You know, if I could do my own be my
own armchair doctor here, because you know, to have two
different opinions at the same time. One he may be
telling us who he is, the real authentic Trump says
he's a communist, where while the the guy who knows
what his job is has to meet with these officials
(02:53):
now because he's he's obsessed with leaderships. So he wants
to now tell this leader how to lead, is what
I thing. But according to The Guardian, to sit down
with Trump was on social media, would take place in
the Oval office and could possibly represent a detente of
(03:13):
sorts between the Republican president and the Democratic rising star.
Calling Mom Donnie by his full name and putting the
mayor elect's middle name of Kwame in quotation marks. Trump
posted on Wednesday night that mom Donnie has asked for
the meeting. He said he asked, promising further details to
follow see and Trump said it's customary. It's customary because
(03:39):
Trump's from New York, right, So he's going to look
out for his city, isn't he don't? I don't think so.
He may be from New York, but he's not New
York friendly. New York's not friendly to him either, So
that's why he went to Florida.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Oh, he just stopped his residency.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
But yeah, he changed, But can.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
You stop your hometown heritage? Isn't it still in your DNA?
Speaker 1 (04:04):
I don't know. He hasn't shown much love to New York,
and New York hasn't shown much love back. We're toldout
new York City now not the state city state. Yeah,
the city is overwhelmingly Democratic, and he was a Democrat
before he was part of that that that makeup that
fabric of New York City being mostly Democrat. And you
may have heard he said if he ever ran for president,
(04:25):
he'd be dude as a Republican because they're easy to
get along, easy to fool or whatever something else that
something of that nature.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
You can fool.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
You can fool some of the people some of the time,
but you can't fool all of the people all.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Of the time.
Speaker 5 (04:37):
Time.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Yeah, yeah, no, I don't know who said that one,
but I know this is what Trump said bastually. Yeah,
because he was a Democrat or lived in Queens, grew
up in Queens and lived on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.
You know, it's a Democrat like most New Yorkers, and
like New York City a game. People understand. We talked
(04:58):
about New York, New York. It's like this city and
then you have you know, Albany and Buffalo and the
other urban centers. But when you get out in the
middle between New York City and East New York and
all the that's the Republican era right there.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
One more thing about that.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
During during his victory, Mom Donnie, a thirty four year
old who is just a few short months it rose
from obscure state lawmaker, and he said he wanted New
York to show the country how to defeat Donald Trump.
He's also said he's gonna Trump proof New York once
he takes office.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
So maybe that's what Trump is doing.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
How can you trump proof anywhere in the United States.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Well, he's taking a lot of l's this last month.
I mean, this is this month is he's charged up
a lot of losses. So, you know, and the month
is coming to end, he'll probably wish November never never existed,
because you know, he never loses, and he never admits
when he's wrong either. It never admits that he's lost.
So for him having this meeting, somehow he's got it.
(06:01):
Whenever the meeting's over, he's got to come out on top.
He's already saying that man Doonnie requested the meeting. So therefore,
you know, he came to me. How to go to him?
He's got to he's got to keep feeding that to
his base. Yeah, so we'll see how it turns out. Kevin,
it would be really interesting.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
Make him an offer he can't refuse. That's what the presidents.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Meanwhile, the Wall Street Journal says that the outraged House
lawmakers vote to strike five hundred thousand dollars payouts for
the senators. And we were talking about that before the
show started. Uh, they can no longer sue and it's
adding up to five hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Explain that if you will miss.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
What happened was was Kevin doing the what is it
the assault on the Capitol? Yeah, and the Democrat insurrection
man insurrection. Democrats subpoena the phone records or some of
the Republicans, some just some members of Congress the subpoena,
and then Donald Trump comes in and he frees everybody
and rescinds the whatever, you know, punishment they received. And
(07:07):
so some of those who were punished, they turned around
and they sued back the government and the elected senators
could do the same thing, and you know, and they
could ask for that amount of money, so so that
you know, that would look bad. That looked like double
dipping because I'm not sure what phones that they were seized,
whether they were the government phones, the ones that we
pay for, or their personal cell phones, so whatever, either way,
(07:29):
it would look bad for them to do that. So
that that they, you know, just to make sure everybody's
in line, they're rescinding that.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Oh, I see, and it was passed unanimously, by the way,
So there is that. And finally, once again, as far
as Democrats go, his ustain I guess uh. Sheila Sherphillis
McCormick indicted for stealing five million dollars in FEMA funds,
(07:55):
and a federal grand jury in Miami yesterday indicted her
and several co defendants, charging them with stealing roughly five
million dollars in Federal Emergency Management Agency affectionately known as
FEMA disaster relief funds and funneling the money into her
twenty twenty one congressional campaign. The US Department of Justice announced.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Well first that well first, we gotta say she's edits
until proven guilty. These are just allegations where now she
has to go and prove that she didn't do that.
But the allegations are with the FED say that she
and her brother they had this medical company and they
funneled the money. They're using dummy. They got folks who
would come in and it was supposed to down the payroll,
and then they kicked them the money. The checks came
(08:38):
out to them and they would kick back percentage back
to her, and a lot of that money that would
kicked back was helped her in her campaign. And she
only won office by like four votes, four votes, four
or five votes something like that. That mini school that's
how she made it into Congress. And she's been on
a surveillance because before that they're saying this, there was
some funny things that have gone on with the money
some of the people who donated money to her with suspect.
(09:01):
So they've been watching her for quite some time. And
you know, you know, when i's go looking, if they
if they'll find something if they go looking, and obviously
they came with this. This is the same thing they
go after James. They look at they couldn't find anything.
They look look at the mortgage application and they try
to find something like they were Mile and Mosby, try
to find something that doesn't line up or doesn't appear
(09:22):
to line up. Then they charge them with that, and
then the Burney's on you to prove that everything is
so the burn is on con No, Burnie's on her
now to prove that she did not stay. She's gonna
what she's gonna do. They're gonna she got to go
to court and then they read the charges and she'll,
you know, enter a pleagu guilt you're not guilty, and
they set up a court day and then and then
(09:43):
the ball starts rolling. Then she had her attorney's gonna
have to prove that that's not true, or at some
point they'll work out a deal and says, well, this
is true, but this is not true. We have a
plea bargain deals she will or whatever. But at some
point she has to prove that she's totally that they're
totally erroneous the charges. So that's what's on her, the
burdening proof right now. It's on her to prove that
(10:04):
she did not steal that money.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Well, according to my studies of law and Order, the
TV show that I watched endlessly, I thought, it's always
the prosecution's job to prove a guilt. They got a
prayer right guilt, and to improve the guilt if theyress
a good case.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
But that's what they've already done. That's why they file
the charges. So it's on her now just to counter
that and say these charges are ironus, This did not happen, Okay.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
The prosecutors say the funds were laundered through multiple accounts
to mask their origin, with a substantial portion routed from
the FEMA contract which was overpayment linked to COVID nineteen,
and she rerouted it into her campaign contry, as you said,
and that she also conspired with her tax preparer to
(10:53):
file a false federal return.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Now that's the part that's interesting, Kevin, because you know
the person does you tax. All he's doing, he's calculating
the numbers by what you give him. So what they
actually what the government is saying that her tax repayer
actually knew that she stole the money, was filtering the money,
laundering the money as they call it. And he's his
defense is I didn't know. She just gave me the
figures and I put them in my computer and this
(11:17):
is what comes up. That's that's probably was going to
be his defense. So that's going to interesting if they
have additional information that he actually knew and that the
allegations were true and he went along with it. So
that's that's going to be really interesting.
Speaker 6 (11:32):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
And so forty six year old McCormick is under other
types of scrutiny for her family's company pandemic era finances
and the firm that she ran before entering Congress and
accusing it of overcharging the state by guess what, five
million dollars. So I tell you, man, hey, that's what's happening.
(11:57):
That's what's happening on twenty five of November. Man, let's
get your guests on and see what they are thinking.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
How about that?
Speaker 1 (12:04):
All right? Thanks Kevin Fortune at the top day out.
Let's bring in the money to ends. Grand Rising, Darryln, Dwayne,
welcome back to the program.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
Grand Rising, Carl Nelson and the family, Sir, gonna have.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Both of you brothers. Let me ask you. They said,
you know Bill Maher, We know Bill Maher. He says
he doesn't stand up anymore because he's scared he might
get shot.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
It's so high that outraises.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
What are your thoughts about Charlie.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Kirk are killing?
Speaker 6 (12:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (12:33):
Yeah, I just read about that. Yeah, that's pretty interesting.
Bill Maher is a pretty controversial comedian and he's afraid
because of the things that he's says that he's is
vulnerable to attack and to be shot the way Charlie
Kirk was, because that's what he equated it with. So
(12:55):
it's pretty sad when the comedian is afraid to go
on a role that he will get killed. Uh So
it's uh, it's incredible, man, that state of what's going
on out here. Just because you have a microphone in
hand and you may have an opinion that some people
(13:16):
don't like. So that's what that was about. So he's afraid.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
Well, let me ask you this. Then, when you guys,
when when you go, when you're on the road, are
you concerned that somebody may a couple of drinks too
many and an attack you or something like that? Is
that or just concerned about the insults that they may shoot?
Speaker 4 (13:34):
Well, two of us those stage. So it's very hard
for somebody to try to attack two people because they'll
be in the world of trouble.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Yeah, well, yeah, somebody may whe of y'all may get hit.
Then that's all that means the guy who is upset.
You know, I think it's a probably person, I said,
the person. The person will probably settled for that.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
Yeah, they think that they hit one of us, both
of us to get hurt. No, No, nobody ever messed
with us. They've tried it a couple of times. But
you know, we'll attalk to you. But but think about it, Carl.
Think about it, Carl. Some of the great conscious comedians
(14:21):
of of of America. We're talking about people like George Carlin,
our father, Paul Mooney, uh, legendary Dick Gregrey. We're talking
about Dave Chappelle. We're talking about Eddie. What's Eddie's last name, Dwayne,
Eddie Griffmin. We're talking about kat Williams, Kat Williams, we're
(14:49):
talking about all of these uh Lenny Bruce back in
the day. We're talking about these conscious comedians. Think about
out it who spoke truth, especially the ones who spoke
truth to power. It's something about the comedian. No matter
(15:10):
what the real real comedians, they didn't give a heck
about what would possibly happen to them. They felt that
their right or freedom of speech. They put their life
on the line, their jokes on the line, to tell
their truth and do their comedy. It's something about comedy
(15:33):
always was given a past. Comedy was given to pass
the way the court jester with the King was you
could tell the king certain things about himself and about
government because he made him laugh. Laughter was always given
a past, a past. That's why it's really surprising that the.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Moody Twins were step aside for a few moments, eighteen
minutes out of the top. They our family just waking up.
We got the money Twins, formerly conscious comedians. I think
they're still on the road, but now they're into making money,
But first we're going to talk about comedy. You want
to join this conversation, reach out to us at eight
hundred four five zero seventy eight seventy six and we'll
take your phone calls. Next and Grand Rising family in
thanks are waking up with us on this Thursday morning.
(16:21):
The guests that right now the Mooney twins, Dwayne and
Darryl Mooney, many even Omas Paul's adult sons. And they
used to be on the comedy circuit with Dick Gregory
and their dad. They opened for both of them on
the road. Which first we're talking about comedy. We will
talking about money next, which they've moved into the money area.
But I got to ask you this fellas Uh Cat
Williams is Cat now the hottest black comedian out there,
(16:44):
and his comedy seems a little different. He was like,
he's dropping dimes more more than you know, things that
makes you laugh. They go, wow, that happened, and there's
something that you laugh at, Uh find funny.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
He's gotten to the point, you know, for a while,
even before the talk that he had with Shae on
the Shay Shaw Show, that he has turned into a
pretty much a comedian orator he's dropping a lot of
wisdom on stage and he's still funny. But remember he's older,
(17:21):
and once you get older and you develop a fan base,
especially when you're conscience, you start becoming something else. And
he has reached that point where he's more than just
a comedian. He's an experience. And now he couldn't get
away with that when he was younger because he didn't
(17:42):
have a following. But once you get that following, and
especially after the epidemic happened, things changed where people wanted
something a little more substance and people like him really
stand out. And then again with the Shay Say Show,
(18:04):
the other thing that he showed was his intellect. You know,
we comedians always knew that he was smart. He's very intelligent,
but the movie saw how smart he was. Yeah, and
the brilliance of Kat Williams is the fact that he
is doing it himself with his own his own money.
(18:27):
He's producing his own shows. He's selling out around the country.
I mean they are standing around the corner to see them,
and he to see him and his other comedians that
he's bringing with him and the comedians that he's putting
on his shows. I mean it's incredible what he's making.
(18:48):
He's literally coming into town making millions of dollars. It's
incredible what he's doing with his own money and paying
his comedians very very well, and building a movie a
film studio in Atlanta, duplicating what Tyler Perry has done
(19:12):
and building his own studios where he's going to be
making his own movies in Atlanta. Pretty incredible for a
comedian and doing so. He's really really more than just
a comedian. He's an entrepreneur, a businessman and really making
a big difference.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
That's interesting. Let me ask you, fellows, this though about Ai.
AI is permeating everything that we have, everything on the
existence is including the entertainment industry. Do you ever see
a time where comedians will be replaced by some fictional
character on AI made by Ai am and be funny
at the same time.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Well, that's going to be very difficult because comedy is
something different and it's the spur of the moment. It's
going to be hard for AI communit to get it way. Remember,
maybe a white comedian, but a black comedian will be
very hard because when you're dealing with the black audience,
(20:09):
you better be into the vibration of the audience and
you better understand how to let them experience you. And
it's a it's a feeling being a black stand up.
That's why you know you have your different comedians. You
have your what we call your safe comedians, black comedians
(20:30):
who are starting that deal with in white audiences. Where
white audiences are into jokes that into you, you know,
set up punchline joke. Black audiences are into experience. They
want to feel where you are coming from. They're just
(20:51):
not going to go for set up punchline joke. They
want to hear your experience. And it's going to be
hard for a hour to be able to share their
experience that relates to the black audience, because you know
that experience changes. You got to be very with the
(21:13):
experience with the black wild. If they ever get an
AI that could improv you know, improvisations, improvisation, Carl is
on the spot when you create in the moment in provisation.
When they can get an AI can do that, that's
going to be incredible. But have you seen all of
(21:34):
these AI videos where they've got Muhammad al Lead talking
to Bruce Lee and they got all of them AI.
I just saw Kobe Bryant AI opening up Saturday Night Live.
It's incredible what they're doing with AI. But you always
see the slight difference between AI and reality. But it
(21:57):
looks like they're trying to merge this thing where you
don't literally don't know the difference.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
Right.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
So I'm pretty soon again we will see the money
twins A. I will think if it's Daryln, Dwayne and
and somebody you know created your guys.
Speaker 4 (22:14):
Look, Drayne is sleep. Man, it's getting crazy, Carl. They
go AI. You, Carl, you're gonna be a sleeping You're
gonna wake up and your show gonna be over. You're
gonna say what happened? It was AI? Carl, Cancel that?
Speaker 3 (22:34):
Cancel that can that's not gonna happen?
Speaker 4 (22:40):
How all the content you have over the years, can you?
But they are setting up AI so cold.
Speaker 7 (22:47):
Man.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
They can set up shows that you've done over the year. Man,
take all your content, bring all that together, your information,
and you just talking AI talking talking talk. Know this.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Because they could pull they can pull an interview, say
we did with Kwame Terrae or doctor Bennon, Doctor Clark
and have them saying something totally yeah, one hundred and
eighty degree is different than what they talked about, you know, but.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
It would lack, it would lack the nuances of the
of the experience, just like you said with the comedic delivery,
with the show like this that it takes context, It
takes knowing who you're talking with and you know, and
the human experience from this show. Even the topic may
start with A and end up at Z, and I
(23:40):
don't think A.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
I can do that.
Speaker 4 (23:42):
I mean, if you can.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Take that, but not everybody can can transcribe the words perhaps,
but it won't be able to transcribe the feeling of Hey,
I have a question for the guest.
Speaker 4 (23:54):
It's not Carl Nelson because they're going to see six
six fingers on one hand.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Yeah, but but fellas that there are some people who
who there was I think a song that was out recently,
a movie or something. I said ninety more than ninety
percent of people couldn't tell it was AI.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
Man say the song. Brother, they've got the signing AI
singers man to recording contracts.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Brother, Yeah, I heard about that.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
But those non real individuals sing songs signing them to
recording contract because they're actually having hits. This is happening
in China right now as we speak. So the possibility
is incredible. Have you seen these commercials with these help Google,
(24:48):
these black help googoos like Saby pushing different nutrition broadus Ai. Yeah,
they got baby selling products. Man, I know Sean.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Told me about that. It's incredible.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
But to save the selling products. Man, it's not even
his old doctor Shrady's doing the McDonald's commercials.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
Oh wow, Hey, but gentlemen, the lady who.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
Wrote the lady who wrote the small burgers.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Hey, the lady who wrote the AI song that was
being signed to a record label is from Mississippi.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
It's a sister named.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Zania Monette and yeah, and they signed her for what
nine million dollars and they.
Speaker 4 (25:36):
Was that crazy?
Speaker 2 (25:37):
And then when they found out it was a I
now they're trying to sue her, but they don't have
a case apparently. Oh it's three million dollars. I'm sorry,
and they don't have a case.
Speaker 8 (25:46):
They say, yeah, so think about that. Take that all
the way back to comedy. Take that all the way
back to comedy. We haven't seen that yet, but watch
are they gonna take comedian ends ai them? And you'll
start hearing jokes and you start hearing AI comedy.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
It's just it's just getting started. Because when I saw
that Kobe Bryant holk Sting SNL, I said, what are
they going to start doing with the comedians now? Will
you see? They started doing it with George Carlin, George
Carlin food the company where they were doing some stuff
(26:27):
with George where they are right?
Speaker 1 (26:29):
I saw that. Well, but but he's a suit because
they I think it's soonous because they didn't have permission.
But if she granted permission, uh, and if they if
you grant permissions, say you on the road, you're busited
with with the money with the crypto councy deal now
and you're still out there relevant and we can see
you probably have an AI channel of comedians and you
(26:52):
got you sign off on it is that okay, it.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
Would be financially but like it it's gonna be really old.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
Well, explain, Explain how you guys come up with the jokes,
the funny bone, the thing that makes you laugh and
laugh that you want to be, you know, that kind
of joke, slide side splitting jokes. Explain how how do
you how do you determine which jokes are.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
Well, the Chris Water comedians. But right now, Carl, you've
got comedian comedy all over the place, right now, right,
I mean all over the place. You've got Christian comedy,
you've got clean comedy, you've got dirty comedy, crossover comedy,
black comedy, White comedy, Latin comedy, all the different kinds
(27:42):
of comedy going on. One of the main things and
Dick Gregory always talked about this, and our father always
talked about this. One of the greatest comedy is current events.
Our father used to say, the jokes right themselves. When
you at current events, the jokes right there, says, look
(28:04):
at what's going on right now with the Epstein files
and Trump jokes, funny jokes. Just the reality is funnier
than the joke. So the current events right themselves. Then
you have the storytelling when the comedians go into and
who's real good at this is Marlon Waiams. He's one
(28:26):
of the great ones at this. They have stories of
their life story. Right now, you have comedians that are
getting shows, showtime specials just talking about one thing and
making that thing funny. So it's all kinds of different
styles going on right now. Political humor, social humor, controversial humor.
(28:50):
Look at what Dave Chapel did. He did a whole show,
a whole special on the LGBTQ community, his whole special.
What's on that? So right now, comedy is really really powerful.
But it's a lot of different looks happening right now.
When you're talking about writing again, it's a gift. Comedians
(29:13):
write differently. Some comedians take notes, they think of something
in the moment, they write it down. Some comedians can
look at current Evince and the jokes are right there.
Some comedians going to their history, their story and they
write jokes about that. There's all kinds of different ways
to write comedy.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
Carl, Yeah, Guy Tory was here recently, twenty six weeks
from the top of Down Family. We're speaking with the
money to it, and you're talking about comedy right now.
We're going to talk about money later. Guy Toy was
in one of the questions I forgot to ask him
when he hung up. I thought about it as a
as a comedian. Do you guys have to be on
all the time. Say you go into the airport and somebody, oh,
(29:52):
Dwayne Mooney your money to you? Say, do you feel
you have to come back with a joke or do
you have to you know, do you have to be Probably.
Speaker 4 (30:00):
It's a great question. It's comedians that are different, like
if Tat Williams. Tat Williams is very shy when he's
on stage because he's intellection, so he'll be real quiet.
Richard pryor the same way. But some comedians are on
like an Eddie Griffiths, like Dick Gregory, like a Paul Mooney.
(30:22):
They're never all They're never off stage. They're always on stage.
Because usually a conscious comedian is constantly on stage because
he has something to say. His mission is bigger than
just stand up, so he's always on. He's always wants
an audience, he always wants to give out information. He
always wants to tell the truth. But because something is
(30:45):
wrong with him, a little nut, he's got to tell
the joke you said around with Dick Gregory when he
was alive. Dick Gregory the whole court for hours off stage,
and Paul Moon is just the same. In fact, it
was always interesting when Paul Mooney and Dick Gregory would
get together because Paul Mooney would listen, he would live
(31:07):
because the only time we would be all mother his mouse.
When he was around Dick Gregory, Dick Gregor would go
all so Carl, Dick would go on and on and all,
and that's the only time we shall all followed. Be quiet.
Father would just be sit up there, Yes, Dick, you're right, yes, man.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
But sometimes sometimes with Dick Gregory, it was hard to
tell you was joking or not. You know, half the
time he'd have me cracking up, and the rest of
the room.
Speaker 4 (31:36):
Man, yeah, man was he started pulling out papers and
booked And.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
If I know that, how come to Wall Street Journal?
I don't know that.
Speaker 4 (31:48):
And when I got from this, I see I a connection.
I mean, it was crazy, man, but he's made. I
don't know where he got that energy from. I guess
it was from off all that ask thing he was doing.
But it's incredible when to be around those kind of minds,
those kind of brains, that kind of with But like
(32:08):
Dwayne said, Richard Pryor was totally different. He was like
Kat Williams.
Speaker 7 (32:14):
He was quiet.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
He was quite a state quiet and he's just quiet
around him, not saying anything. Has compared to Dick Gregory
and Paul Mooney. That's why Richard loved Paul being around
him because Paul was like that energizing bunny, always feeding
him material, and that's why he loved him hanging around.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
And right there, fellas say, right there, we got to
check the news first, and twenty three minutes away from
the top, they only come back. I want to ask

WLB and also in the DMV on fourteen twenty w
l so Mooney Twins. Eddie Murphy says he's gone back
on the road. It's been off for quite some time.
Do you think it's easy to get back into stride
or you like an athlete and all those skills and
the stuff that you've learned.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
Sort of clips for Eddie Murphy is not getting back
on no goddn road. No, I don't know. I know
if you guys, his special was well, his documentary was amazing.
His body of work is incredible. But as far as
(34:08):
his stand up is concerned, that is kind of over.
He's He's not he has not been doing a stand up.
Has to be doing stand up, Hey, dar want to
I wanted to say something about that. If you remember
his last Saturday Night line, Yeah, and he showed a
(34:29):
little bit of it on the documentary that if you
watched it when he was doing his stand up when
he opened Saturday Night Live. I'm talking on when they
were showing ursal, he looked lost. Yeah, the energy he
ain't had the fire where the producers of Saturday Night Live.
They came up with the idea to have comedians come
(34:53):
on stage during his opening. Why did he do that
so he didn't have to do you stand up? He
can actually talk and let the comedians tell the jokes
and he can end prov That's what he's good at.
His stories are like, you know, they're simple. He's not
(35:14):
really talking about anything. He's turning into Bill Cosby, and
Bill Cosby was doing that forever, you know, talking about family,
telling his jokes, doing his characters. But Eddie is like,
he's just like watching Grandpa now, so his stand up
on the road, compared to what's going on now just
won't be exciting and won't be hot. We like what
(35:38):
he's doing now. He's being interviewed, he's getting his flowers
while he's alive. He's still funny. He's doing these movies.
You know, I don't know how many people who actually
go see Eddie even in a movie theater. Now everything
is on TV now. The character that he'll be playing,
they say, he's playing what's the character? The detective? The
(35:59):
pink happen and he's doing, uh, what's the musician? Rock
and roll star? Come on, give me Henry George Clinton,
George Clinton, George George. He's gonna be playing George Clinton,
and he's the new king Panthers over the paint the
Peter Seller's character. But but did you call documentary No.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
I didn't say. He's documentary man.
Speaker 4 (36:27):
At the documentary, man, check this out, Carl, the documentary
pulls out some uh dolls, some puppets, puppets, uh uh,
Bill Cosby, Richard Cryer and and Paul Mooney. Right, those
three puppets, because he's doing the puppeteering thing.
Speaker 3 (36:51):
Right. I didn't realize he was such a great vents man.
I saw that.
Speaker 4 (36:56):
Now check this out. Here's the reality, his reality. For
those who watched that, they thought it was incredible. He
thought it was magical. It was great. Well, he has
always had the puppet of Paul Mooney. He was fascinated
by our father, Paul Mooney. He always had that puppet.
(37:17):
When the producers of the documentary saw that puppet of
Paul Mooney, what they did was suggested that he get
a puppet of Richard Pryor and Bill Cosby for the documentary.
Those puppets were just for the documentary because he already
(37:42):
had the Paul Mooney puppet incredible, but it's incredible what
he was doing with that. It was funny, it was hilarious,
and that's how he ended the documentary. But he really
really loved Paul because he loved Paul's personality and his
character and he was just like Richard Pryor.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
So you want to talk about you want to talk
about why he got the puppets.
Speaker 4 (38:07):
Down. Yeah, he was Paul for Richard and for Eddie.
Was their militant consciousness that they couldn't be all the
time because Pops was always on that. That's why he
loved That's why they loved having him around, because he
kept them conscious. And if you notice Dude Eddie Murphy's documentary,
(38:33):
although he was entertaining and he was commercial, there was
an underlying consciousness with Eddie Murphy that was throughout his
entire career, so he was very conscious. He was very
subtle with it. So he was just fascinated with Paul's
character and his personality and he decided to do a
(38:54):
puppet and it was very it was very interesting to
see that underlying consciousness, same thing that Richard Pryor had
and Paul Mooney reminded them of that because Paul Mooney
was not a smoker, he wasn't a druggy, so they
liked him around because Paul was very clear headed and
(39:16):
he always talked about what was going on, so he
kept them alive. He kept them on what was going
on in the world through comedy. And he loved Paul
because Paul was more Hollywood than Eddie. He's more Hollywood
than Richie. But at the same time, he was conscious
and if you watch the documentary, you saw the consciousness
(39:39):
when Eddie spoke out when he was on the Oscars.
I don't know if he was the whole story. He
was just a guess, but he spoke out against the industry.
And even Eddie said, he said, that's why he's never
won an Oscar, because he spoke out against them. He
(40:00):
was white listed. He actually said blacklisted, but he was
whitelisted from the Oscars. So he's never won an Oscar.
All the brilliance that Eddie Murphy is done, he should
have won two or three or four Oscars, but he's
never won one because of his outspokenness against the Oscars. Wow.
Speaker 1 (40:23):
Interesting, not away from the topic. Let me ask these
fellas this question, though with some of the newer comedians
I've seen, they they what's funny for them, and they
like to compare black life and white life. Well, white
person does, and everybody's laughing. Do you find that funny?
Speaker 3 (40:40):
That that?
Speaker 1 (40:41):
No, I don't find it funny. As I thought, I'm
the only person.
Speaker 4 (40:45):
This is why we don't find his funny. And Paul
Money was the only one that was great at it.
And this was the difference. Check this out. When black
folks do black and white chokes, black folks always the
butt of the joke. White folks got great credits, black
folks got bad credits. It's always, you know, white folks
(41:08):
got straight here, black folks got mappy here. You know,
white folks do this for black folks to shoot you up.
You know, it's always the negative good hair, mad hair. Yeah,
Paul Mooney was the first one that turned it around
where he made white folks the butt of the joke. Yeah,
(41:29):
and that's why.
Speaker 1 (41:30):
Hold, I thought, right there, Hold, I thought, right there.
Do you think had he not done that, he'd have
been more successful.
Speaker 4 (41:36):
Yes, that's why White Folds and Franchem only only only
white wolves in like uh, Paul Mooney were conscious. White
folks your average like the James Founders, those type of
white folks. The average white folk couldn't sand Paul Moon
because he made the white He made the white cracker
(41:56):
the butt of the joke. Black folks were the butther
of the joke with Paul Mooney. That's what his brilliance was.
That's what made him stand out. That's why it's following
will live forever. That's why the hip hop generation loved
because he made black folks the the self esteem of
his comedy.
Speaker 2 (42:16):
Hey, gentlemen, yes, but we will be remissed calling called
and said, what about the female comedians? We are not
talking about any of the ladies that made his fat
and made comedy.
Speaker 3 (42:28):
What it is today too.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
Yeah, Wither was cutting edge when she first came out
with that single Lady. Yeah, that one lady act that
she did, you know on Broadway?
Speaker 4 (42:44):
Do you remember do you remember Moniques one of her
greatest stands up when she did the stand up in
prison for the Women's Lists.
Speaker 3 (42:52):
Yes, uh huh.
Speaker 4 (42:53):
That was one of the most magnificent comedy pieces I've
ever sent. It was her best work.
Speaker 9 (43:01):
Okay, Wanda, thankle Now, and you know who's real funny?
Speaker 4 (43:14):
What's with the TV show Girl. We were just talking
about her shed hilarious. She is married game and she's
putting a lot of comedians on. I really want to
give a shout out to Sherry Shepherd because she's giving
a showcase to comedians that would never touch television.
Speaker 5 (43:38):
And she's mad.
Speaker 4 (43:39):
She's come a long way from when she was on
the show with Whoopi Goldberg and then and when they
used some dogger and an intelligence she was and how
she was just you know, the new person on the box.
But now with her also on even this show, she
took over Wendy Williams spot. Remember she was they were
(44:00):
talking about she's taking over Wendy. She's not gonna be
funny for her to come up with her own energy,
her own show. And it comes to where she is now.
I think that people don't talk about how phenomenal that is.
And now she's the greatest thing on television. And a
shout out to Tippany hat Man. She's got a specially
(44:22):
with her her girlfriends that went on that tour in
Africa on a vacation that's on now with Tippany Hattis.
Tippany had its just opened up their grocery store and
the community called the diaspora black owned black products. I mean,
comedians are doing amazing things.
Speaker 2 (44:42):
Look at thoughts on any thoughts on some more. I'm
a big simmon.

But she's done well, so the kudos to her. But
(47:53):
here's what the markom Heinim says, the Telemoney Twins that
Marko Maronheim says, and love just the last time we
saw each other was doing the All Stars Exclusive Comedy
tribute to Antos to take correctly held of the Ricardo
Monteblanc Theater that was in Hollywood, says, they don't tell
that the woman that was shamelessly flooding was Bill Duke's spouse.
He says they are correct. The current of fair jokes
(48:15):
do write themselves. He goes on to say he had
a crush on Elaine Maxwell doing his college sailing days,
and it just says, just as he said, that would
have been funny, that'd been some good, good jokes for
you fellas to write.
Speaker 4 (48:28):
What's that brother?
Speaker 1 (48:31):
Some pictures you guys too. I'm just looking at this.
Speaker 4 (48:35):
Yeah, I'm what a brilliant man.
Speaker 1 (48:39):
Yeah, But fellas, lets let's talk. Let's get into the
money game now, because are you still doing comedy with
with on your on your tours now for crypto currency
or are you doing something else or.
Speaker 4 (48:52):
More crystal more more more crypto currency right now, right now, Carl,
crypto currency is so hot. Remember the last presidential with
Biden in the gang crypto, there was a war on crypto.
But now of the president and the government is crypto friendly.
(49:13):
So now they're calling the crypto capital. Okay, from the
war crypto to crypto capital cryptocurrency now think about it.
It was reported Baron Trump, the youngest Trump. It was
in the news about a month ago that he made
one hundred and fifty million dollars in a year with.
Speaker 10 (49:37):
Their company that the family owned, the American crypto company
that the family owns. He made one hundred and fifty
million dollars from owning ten percent shares of that company.
But they didn't tell you all the billions that were
made from the other Trumps, including President Trump that owns
(50:00):
the other shares of the company.
Speaker 4 (50:03):
Billions of dollars. Now, what are you the dollars made
with the currency. So this very very crypto friendly. They
passed the the what is that the the uh uh,
the Clarity Act, the Genius Act for the stable coin framework,
the Clarity Act, which is advancing to give the CFTC
(50:27):
clear authority over spot crypto markets where the SEC is
not as stop the crypto research, I mean, an examination
of priorities, all of this. So it's very very crypto
friendly right now. So the average person should follow suit,
(50:47):
follow the money. There's a big wealth transfer happening right now,
and we are educating people to be a part of that.
We talk about AI car Automatic Intelligence. Well, you've got
crypto robots that we have that can trade for you.
We're making money right now, Carl, right now that we're
(51:08):
being interviewed with you, we're making money with crypto robots
that are doing the trading. I mean cryptocurrency with real estate,
cryptocurrency with all kinds, with the four x market connected
to the forts market, which is international currency, crypto stable coins,
(51:30):
the crypto currency, decentralized market, the centralized market. It's just incredible,
staking Dwayne N goos on and on, doesn't it. Yeah,
And you mentioned Baron Barron the company that they have
they mine bitcoin. We should really think about this. They
are mining bitcoin, they are making bitcoin. That's why they're
(51:55):
making so much money so right.
Speaker 1 (51:58):
There though, because you say't them mincoin, they're mining other
cryptocurrencies or everything, justin.
Speaker 4 (52:04):
The mining Bitcoin, which is the main stable Bitcoin is
the father of all bitcoins. Right now, they're only mining bitcoin,
which is incredible. That's why they made so much money
so fast. And I want to say that we got
a mining company too, but I wanted to say that
(52:28):
what's incredible is because of this presidency is so crypto friendly.
It has opened the door when the Biden administration was
in it. And I'm not saying Biden and One is
better than other Democrats Republicans. It's two wings of the
same bird. My point is that all the wrong that
(52:50):
Trump is doing. The door is wide open with cryptocurrency.
If anybody ever wanted to get into crypto currentcy now
is the time. And people always say, well, we're swarps
are waiting. Crypto is going down. Well two things. It's
the end of the year and everything's going down. But
also because of the government shut down, it's really made
(53:12):
it go down. But guess what what goes up most
come down. And what most people don't know this is
the key. You can make money when cryptocurrency is going down.
If cryptocurrency, if Bigcoin went down to a dollar, people
will become trillionaires. And this is what people are not
(53:36):
aware of.
Speaker 2 (53:37):
I don't think it's never going down to a dollar, though,
I mean it went down. Look it went down from
one hundred million to ninety one million now. But I
wanted to ask I wanted to ask you about the
mining of the bitcoin. Is they're only twenty one million
bitcoins right, so eventually they won't be able to mine it.
Speaker 3 (53:55):
So what about the coin.
Speaker 4 (53:58):
There'll be a new coin. XR team is authorise it'll
be a new coin. It'll be another coin coming. Bigcoin
is right now. And the speech that Trump did in Miami.
They call bitcoin a superpower. They said, we want to
make crypto America the crypto capital of the world. Okay,
(54:20):
so this is the kind of strategic of what they're
doing right now with cryptocurrency. It's just real power right now.
They actually have a property in mail Dive where they're
using their financing it through investors with cryptocurrency. This is Trump.
So there's something that's happening behind the scenes with cryptocurrency
(54:43):
that people have to under they're not reporting this stuff
on the news, but people have to understand there's a
well transfer happening right now through cryptocurrency that is incredible.
If you look online, if you're online, you see all
these people around the world who are making money with
cryptal currency. And what we want people to do is
(55:05):
to be a part of that. That's what we educate
with our Wealth Portal. We easily where people can get
involved in cryptal currency, where they can make money with culture.
When we found out that forty eight million people are
on Snap and on welfare where they're literally making welfare
and Snap a lifestyle, that's just got to stop. We've
(55:29):
got to take that to another level and start creating
work for our selves so we can take our communities
to the next level, and cryptocurrency is one way that
we're able to do that.
Speaker 1 (55:42):
All right, hold on, felt right there, Fellasten twelve after
the top of out, take a step by step? How
can you do it? People listening now because they've heard
the term crypto concenty, they heard about big coins and
and all that stuff. But what's break it down? The
average person. You know, Kevin's in the graduate class, so
he knows all about crypto.
Speaker 4 (56:05):
You got to do is have a crypto wallet. Everybody
has it. You have to have a wallet. Understand, they're
simple ones. They're called uh centralized wallets. Uh. You have
your coin base, that's a centralized wallet. Difference between the
centralized wallet and the comic are decentralized wallet, whereas one
(56:26):
called atomic wallet, which is decentralized. A centralized wallet, you
have to give up all your information, your your your license.
They got to know where you're coming from, a bill,
et cetera, because they don't want you laundering money. Decentsulized
don't care. It's just a number. Once you understand the
(56:46):
basics just to get a wallet, then you have to
understand how to turn your dollars into cryptot.
Speaker 2 (56:57):
Didn't the Binding administration do away with the decentralized wallet though,
I mean, that's what I'm experiencing right now.
Speaker 4 (57:04):
Is ID right now no centralized centralized wallet, and.
Speaker 2 (57:13):
So coin base coin basis is the one that's offering
the decentralized walming.
Speaker 4 (57:18):
No, they have a decentralized wallet system, yes, but their
main one is centralized.
Speaker 3 (57:24):
Especially they can investigated.
Speaker 4 (57:26):
Or something for the coin based centralized triple dot com
and centralized atomic walls is decentralized. Is decentralized and centralized walls.
We can go on and go on.
Speaker 3 (57:37):
And blockchain blockchains for.
Speaker 4 (57:40):
Example, for example, everybody who has a cash app. Most
people have a DApp. Yeah, right now you can buy
bitcoin on your cash app. That's considered the centralized wallet,
and you.
Speaker 3 (57:53):
Can buy that PayPal.
Speaker 2 (57:54):
You can get a but that's central it's a limit on.
Speaker 4 (57:59):
Any time you got to give up your information, which
is ky speed know your customer. That's a centralized wallet.
When you have to take your your what do you
call twelve phrase words for example, that's the centralized the key,
that's the key that's decentralized. And there's a difference. It's
(58:19):
good to have a combination of both. So it's but
both of those are still right now today are easy,
easy to manifest and to out there in abundance. But
that's the first thing you have to do to be
able to get turn your crypto into cash, and your
cash into crypto is by way of your wallet. This
(58:43):
is the way you do it, the real simple, real
simple cash that right on there. You know you're move
in money, moving money to people. Well just look at
the crypto on there and you can buy you some bitcoin.
When you buy your bitcoin, you can move it. You know,
you can own bigcoin right there. But then what you
can do if you have another wallet, like a decentralized wallet,
(59:07):
atomic wallet, you can actually are you can use a
what we call a swap exchange site. One is called
change now change now, which is decentralized. You can move
that your bitcoin and change it to or swap it
to any other coin you want, like a us DT.
(59:31):
You can uh which is a coin that matches the dollar.
Was created from the dollars, so when the dollar goes up,
it goes up. When the dollar goes down, it goes down.
In fact, people use USDT as just you know when
the market is very volatile, they'll swap their moneys into
us DT until it's not volatile anymore, especially if it's
(59:52):
volatile going down because USDT matches the dollar, so it
stays going sideways. So it's a good point to have
when you're trying to move money because it won't fluctuate.
But then you can start swapping it into any other coin.
And because a lot of sites, a lot of programs,
(01:00:13):
a lot of investments take certain coins. So once you
learn how to move it, this is key. Once you're
like a drug dealer on the internet, but you're not
a drug dealer. You're moving crypto. When you understand that
you can move it and turn it into any coin,
this is when the door opens wide open, when you
(01:00:35):
understand how to move it, where to move it, and
you can start making money. Check this out hourly, weekly, daily,
and monthly. In other words, you just don't have to
buy and hold crypto and the hope it goes up. No,
(01:00:56):
you can. People can burow what we call staking or
liquidity pools are yield farming. These are terms where you
make money where people will borrow your crypto from you
and you will make a percentage daily and that's gonna
yield farming, yield farming, liquidity pools, staking, staking, you can
(01:01:21):
stick your coins and make money on it daily.
Speaker 5 (01:01:25):
We do it all the time.
Speaker 3 (01:01:30):
Very good.
Speaker 1 (01:01:32):
You hold on and said Kevin, Kevin to take the bake.
You guys get all this worked up on this crypto country,
you know need for that's like myself and just trying
to figure out what's going on here. Fellas a family.
You got questions about crypto and you hear the Mooney
Twins saying that it's booming, and we've had other people
have Michael Redmanson come on and says, this is time
to get into crypto because as long as the government's involved,
(01:01:54):
you know, it's because the Trump's involved, you know, it's
gonna make some money. They're not gonna put get behind
something that's going to lose money. Brother, So what are
your thoughts? You want to join us? Reach out to
us at eight hundred and four or five zero seventy
eight seventy six ticket phone calls next and Grand Rising family,
thanks for staying with us on this Thursday morning. I
guess to the Mooney twins and you know them as
Paul's adult sons. They used to be known as the
(01:02:17):
Conscious Comedians. They used to open for their dad, Paul
Mooney and Dick Gregory on the road. Now they've transitioned
those halfway transition, if you will, because they're still doing
their comedy, but now into making money using the vehicle
of cryptocurrency. Well, we go back to Ron has a
question or comment for any's online.
Speaker 5 (01:02:33):
Three.
Speaker 1 (01:02:33):
It's calling from Tacoma Park in Maryland. Grand Rising, Ron,
you're on with the Mooney Twins.
Speaker 7 (01:02:38):
Grand Rising brother waits Grand Rise and to the brothers
the comedy the Moone Twins. Gentlemen, I call this morning
because I wanted to share some information on how important
the information is that these gentlemen are sharing with your listening.
Speaker 5 (01:02:59):
On is this morning and call.
Speaker 7 (01:03:01):
This article appeared on back in May New York. Big
coin miners are buying up power plants and communities are
fighting back. Talking about the four largest big coin mines
in the country, which consumes huge quantities of electricity and
(01:03:26):
water to cool the service, and the clouds of human
noise and flood and atmosphere of conspecially with greenhouse as pollutants.
Now it goes on to talk about data centers and
the relationship between crypto mining, but what was important in
this article. It went on to talk about how the
(01:03:50):
value of the big coin is set once a code
is reached confirming the transactions happens across the network. Every
ten minutes big coin mind Us received three point one
newly minute big coins each worth ninety five thousand, which
is the fee for help and maintainment network.
Speaker 6 (01:04:13):
And secure it.
Speaker 7 (01:04:16):
And that is backed by the energy costs and the
transmission costs. When we pay our gas for the electricity bills,
we are receiving passed through step up underwright this industry.
So when we pay our gas what the electricity bills,
we're helping the fuming big coins.
Speaker 4 (01:04:37):
So it ain't going open, it ain't going nowhere.
Speaker 6 (01:04:45):
That with you.
Speaker 7 (01:04:46):
Brothers this morning, ain't thank you what you do. And
let me give people my web website and they can
go look at this information for themselves. It's positive change
pc dot com. They can click the news and events
thence and put in the article and it will tell
you how the utility industry and the tech industry and
(01:05:10):
the crypto mining industry are tied to AI, crypto mining
and blockchain technology. And that is everything is going and
we are setting in the center piece because right here
in Loudon County you got two hundred and fifty data centers,
(01:05:33):
the largest hook up on the planet Earth. So we
sent right ere in the nation's gap on top of
the crypto mining industry.
Speaker 4 (01:05:43):
So with that being said, y'all have a blessed day,
and thank you, thank you, Hey, hey, hey, Carl. I
want the people to understand this because you said something.
You're about processing. When we say you have a wallet.
When you you have your wallet, you have a received,
and you have a SIN. Your received has an address,
(01:06:07):
and when you send, you send to a certain address.
That's what it's called. An address is a series of
numbers and alphabets. That's called an address, and they all
are unique with themselves. Remember received and SIN. Right, So
now you let's say you have bitcoin, you sending and receiving.
(01:06:28):
You want to receive bitcoin from somebody you have that
bitcoin sent to you, or you want to send. Now,
this is where it gets powerful. When you're receiving and sending.
Let's say you're sending you send. Let's say you take
it and you're the address and you send a thousand
(01:06:49):
dollars worth of bitcoin and you're sending it to an
AI that's trading for you. That AI is making you
twenty to thirty percent returns monthly. At the end of
that month, you take that profit and you have that
profit sent to you in bitcoin in your wallet. So
(01:07:13):
now that's in your wallet right now. You take that
bitcoin and you transferred. If you don't have it in
the wallet there, you transferred to a wallet that has
a card like a debit card. So what you're doing
in house, in your own back office, you're taking that
(01:07:34):
crypto and you're exchanging that bitcoin crypto into cash right
in your back office. So now you've changed that crypto
into cash. Now you have cash right on your debit card.
You can go out and use that debit card to
(01:07:55):
buy and purchase anything you want from services good just
like a regular credit card, a debit card. You can
use that debit card where you've exchanged your crypto into cash.
That's how powerful is That's how it becomes money. Carl Okay,
(01:08:16):
now thought, let me.
Speaker 1 (01:08:17):
Jump in and ask you this question. At twenty seven
minutes off the top there I found we got the
money Twins Style and Dwayne talking about crypto currency. Right now,
I hear stories about people losing their numbers of whatever
something I lose in all their money, because that's the key.
Explain that for us, because we don't people lose their
money straight up, So yes, how can you avoid that in.
Speaker 4 (01:08:38):
The beginning when I lost I still right now have
ten thousand dollars floating out there in the crypto currents
in the crypto universe because I lost my keys. The
brother said earlier, your keys, your phrases. In the decentralized market,
that's why you have to be very careful because the
(01:08:59):
decentralized mark market you have more responsibility. In centralized marketing,
when the KYC know your customer, they have your information,
so you can call the company and you can get
your information. But decentralized, if you lose a twelve word
phrase and you lose it, you don't you don't write
(01:09:19):
it down and you misplace it or whatever. You cannot
get back into your back office because you lost your phrase.
And if you can't get into your back office, you
cannot retrieve your cryptocurrency. Remember that's what happened Kevin Durant
a few months ago when he had those hundreds of
thousands of dollars that said, he finally got access back
(01:09:42):
access to well, he found his keys, and there wasn't keys.
His was centralized. That's why you found it.
Speaker 1 (01:09:51):
Okay, And now I'm gonna ask you this, can somebody
find your key because can somebody infiltrate get getting you code?
Speaker 2 (01:10:00):
No, you have to write them down and then you
can put them on a thumb drive or some way
to keep it secure outside of your normal way of
saving things, and then put that in a vault or
you know, put that where you keep your keep your keys,
you know, and keep other documents that you want to
keep safe. Yeah, and you can have it on a
(01:10:21):
thumbs very important, brother, Yes, that's the best way to
do that.
Speaker 4 (01:10:24):
It's like gold, brother, you got it. You got it.
You've got to be able to track your keys and
keep them private, put them in a few places because
you want to have those keys. It's like, for example,
anything happens to you, you want your family members to
be your wife or your husbands to be able to
have access to those keys, because if anything happens to
(01:10:45):
you and they can't get to the keys, they can't
get to the money. Brother. So this is your responsibility
to keep track of those keys, put them in a safe.
Speaker 1 (01:10:56):
But yeah, here's my question though, Dwayne and Darryl and Kevin.
Can somebody else start looking through your stuff and try
to figure out, you know, using computer, using AI whatever
and figure out your key. Is that possible?
Speaker 5 (01:11:10):
No?
Speaker 4 (01:11:11):
No, you can't figure out there's no serve.
Speaker 3 (01:11:13):
Because the word the words are so random that it's
not possible.
Speaker 4 (01:11:18):
They can hack your account. Now, you got some experts
out there that can hack your account. But that that's
a whole that's a whole different animal there. But that's
why you want to have those keys. You want to
have what you call those when you have the code.
There's different security measures that you go through in order
(01:11:39):
to secure your accounts. That's just one. The keys are
one there or others.
Speaker 1 (01:11:45):
All right, I got cool test on it for you, fellas.
Speaker 4 (01:11:48):
Check this out to protect your account.
Speaker 1 (01:11:50):
Thirty minutes after the top down check this out. Tweeter
just says, we invested one thousand dollars in book bigcoin,
and when we went to collect, the woman said you
have to wait. Everything's out on hold. Eventually we stopped
calling her. We lost one thousand dollars. So that's the person.
They didn't say the company company.
Speaker 4 (01:12:09):
Yeah, yeah, it's like anything.
Speaker 5 (01:12:12):
You know.
Speaker 4 (01:12:12):
There's a lot of craziness going on. There's a lot
of fake companies going on. There's a lot of people
that are there to rip you off. This is like
the wild wild Gold russ Wet. So you get a
lot of scams out there. Sounds like they were in
a scam if they couldn't get their money out. But
the thing is with scams. I'm gonna tell people this too,
(01:12:35):
and this is very serious. People will holler out scam.
That's why they don't mess with crypto. Look, don't let
scam stop you because you may lose one thousand dollars somewhere,
but you make ten thousand dollars somewhere else. Just like
regular investing, a regular investor does not win all the time,
(01:12:57):
but they win three out of ten times. They're doinging well.
They're doing good. So you gotta realize that you have
to be in multiple streams of investments. Don't just get
in one. I'm gonna just depend on bigcoin. Right now,
bigcoin is down, but other coins are up. Other coins
(01:13:18):
so XRP is killing the game right now. Light coin
is doing well. So there's lots of lots of coins,
there's stable coins, there are mean coins, there's lots of coins.
But people just had to be educated and have the
understanding of what's going on. Because remember, every master was
once a disaster. Every ignorant person, every smart person was
(01:13:42):
once ignorant. So you have to learn, be willing to learn,
open up your consciousness, get out of poverty consciousness for
a wealth consciousness, and learn this stuff, and then you
will get on the road to building wealth and you
get real, real understanding of what's going out here. Because
if somebody else can do it, you can also do
(01:14:04):
it too. So our thing is to educate people and
just show people what we're doing so they can do
it too. Very simple. Once you got it, you got it,
you do it over over and over again, and you
start having a level of master three.
Speaker 2 (01:14:18):
Even when bitcoin goes down and I consider that a sale,
wouldn't you say that that's the time to buy when it.
Speaker 4 (01:14:25):
Goes exactly, it's whole sale right now, it's time to
buy its whole seal.
Speaker 1 (01:14:30):
Yeah, So let me just ask for you fellas this then,
because the critique I hear about that bigcoin and twenty
six minutes away from the top of our family just
joined the Mooney Twins through In and dall with us
Kevin's and chipping into They all know about cryptocons. I
don't know how much you fellas know. The listeners how
you how much you know. But one of the critiques
I've heard fellas is that it's a pyramid scheme.
Speaker 4 (01:14:50):
Is it or is it not?
Speaker 1 (01:14:51):
A Peermid scheme? They always all laughing.
Speaker 4 (01:14:56):
And amid a pyramid schemes. Cryptal currency has nothing to
do with the expeerramid scheme. Now you can be involved
with cryptal currency with affiliate marketing companies, or you can
be involved with cryptal currency with mL LIMP companies what
some people will call a Peermid scheme. There are some
companies that do have pyramid schemes that are illegal. For example,
(01:15:21):
we've got companies that we were involved in years ago
that got arrested or got stopped by government, but now
they are paying people back the money. The government's got
a hold up. We've been paid back to companies that
we had been with previously that are being paid back
their companies. Right, so you have to do real good
(01:15:43):
research on your companies. We've learned we've lost what we've gained.
That's a part of the investment world though, so you
have to really really do your due diligence. And right
now we are involved with different business partners that are
doing treating with us for us, and we have different
companies that were involved in We keep the diversity. Like
(01:16:06):
I said, we involved in real estate, we're involved with
gold and silver, we're involved in the four x market
all by way of crypto currency. So you have to
be smart. When you get in this game, you become
smarter and smarter and smarter. So it's investing. You're always
taking a risk, just like life, but you want to
(01:16:27):
take risks that have the law of probability that you're
gonna make money. So we know as investors somewhere you
will lose, but you will win more. You got to
be smart, do your research, and you will make money
like other people are doing. And the answer that no,
(01:16:51):
it isn't a crypto currency is not a pyramid scheme.
It's a it's a new way of making money. Crypto
currency is energy. This blockchain technology. Keep up, ladies and gentlemen,
keep up with what's going on. If you're not into crypto,
you're a bypto. In other words, something's wrong with you.
(01:17:16):
And if you're blaming crypto for your problems, something's wrong
with you. We say, down with food stamps, up with crypto.
Speaker 1 (01:17:26):
All right, Hold up, Thory, Hey, we got to check
the news. But when we come back, though, you guys
are throwing around words like blockchain, can you explain that
that what? What is a blockchain? You know, because some
of these terminologies when people listening probably hearing it for
the first time, they've heard about a crypto country or
mostly they've heard about bitcoin.
Speaker 4 (01:17:42):
I know what the change is, but what's a blockchain?
Speaker 1 (01:17:46):
What's a blockchain?
Speaker 4 (01:17:47):
Right?
Speaker 1 (01:17:47):
I'll let you explain that when we get back. Family
YouTube can join our discussion with the Mooney Twins. Reach
out to us at eight hundred four five zero seventy
eight seventy six or twenty three minutes away from the
top of Yeah, let's check the news, trafficking weather, our
different cities and we'll be back after this and Grand
Rising family, thanks for starting your Thursday with us at
sixteen minutes away from the top of the way. The
Mooney Twins, Dwayne and dal you know them, is the
(01:18:09):
conscious comedians and many of you probably saw him when
they opened for Dick Gregory and their dad, Paul Mooney.
Well now they're into the money business cryptocurrency. Before we
go back to them, let me just remind you. Coming
up later this morning, we're going to speak with one
of our grills, one of our top scholars. That will
be the Professor James Small. He'll be here. And also
Tomorrow's Friday, we're going to give you another chance to
free your mind and join us for our open for
(01:18:29):
on Friday program again promptly at six am Eastern time
right here in Baltimore on ten ten WLB and also
in the DMV on fourteen fourteen twenty w OL. And
you know a lot of folks, let me just say this,
say wait till the last minute and we have to
do We just can't get everybody in, so just make
sure that you call early. So would love to hear
from you. What's going on in your community and what
do you think of some of the guests that we've
(01:18:49):
had this week. Dall and Dwayne. You know I was
September that brother sint Kliskin, or one of our frequent
guests on this program, you had a Blockchaine summit at
Howard University. He wants to get more or our funk's
involved in it to make money for it. So we
cannot get in on this game. But I'm not quite sure.
For the folks that in the tend the Blockchain Summit
at Howard, explain it to us. What is a blockchain?
Speaker 4 (01:19:13):
Look, look, I'm gonna I'm gonna give you some information.
A blockchain is a decentralized, distributed, and immutable digital leisured
use to record transactions across many computers, making it transparent
and resistance to modification. It is the lighting technology for
(01:19:37):
crypto currency.
Speaker 1 (01:19:40):
So to get in the game, you have to use that.
You have to use the blockchain.
Speaker 4 (01:19:44):
Is that?
Speaker 1 (01:19:44):
And what you know I'm trying to understand is.
Speaker 4 (01:19:47):
The blockchain is the system that is utilized for you
to move currency. For you to move cryptocurrency, you have
to use it through the blockchain, and the blockchain records everything.
It's almost like watching the beginning of the Matrix when
you see all that green going the movie the Matrix,
(01:20:08):
when all that green is coming up and you see
all those numbers. That's the blockchain.
Speaker 1 (01:20:15):
All right, Well we'll check it out. Kevin. I know
you've got a question for the tank Carl.
Speaker 4 (01:20:22):
Without the blockchain, crypto ain't happening. That's how crypto has
moved is through the blockchain.
Speaker 2 (01:20:32):
Okay, look, I wanted to go back to something you
said earlier about moving your bitcoin around, moving the money
around when things are going on. Are you advocating that
you then switched to the other coins in the event
that a you know, an adjustment, I called it an
adjustment when bitcoin goes down. You are you recommending then
(01:20:56):
go to one of the other coins.
Speaker 7 (01:20:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:20:58):
The profit from that absolutely.
Speaker 4 (01:21:02):
Again, if you want to stabilize your coins, if you're
if you're scared of the volatility, Like I said, Daryl
n I, we make money when crypto is going down.
We use crypto box, we use spor xbox, and they'll
get into sell positions when it's when the when the
market our crypto is going down, and we make that money.
(01:21:23):
We make money that way too. But for your average person, say,
for instance, you own a lot of Bitcoin, and you
own a lot of uh stable coins like eth coins
of that nature, what you will do is sometimes what
a lot of people do when it's a lot of volatility,
especially going down, they'll swap their coins and turn it
(01:21:46):
into us d T until when it goes down, so say,
for instance, goes three four thousand and five thousand dollars
down like bitcoin. Just did you you you you have
your usd T, you've changed, splipped it over, changed it over,
and then when it's down at a lower place, you
(01:22:07):
buy the bitcoin again. This is what people do. This
is what investors do all the time.
Speaker 3 (01:22:13):
You're not out of the bitcoin market, though, are you.
Speaker 4 (01:22:15):
You're u s d T is a BI is a cryptocurrency,
So no, you're in the market. You're just saving You're
just you're just saving your loss by moving the coin
or swapping it into another.
Speaker 3 (01:22:31):
Coin and then you can swap it ben Yeah, then.
Speaker 4 (01:22:36):
You swap it back when and you buy it at
a lower price, like you said, it's wholesale, now you
buy it at a lower price.
Speaker 11 (01:22:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:22:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:22:44):
You need software from that though.
Speaker 4 (01:22:45):
Right out there, Like for example, when Dwayne you know
the words the language, when he says volatility, that means
that the coin is making big movements either down or up.
Either a bear bear is going down, bullets is going up.
When they're making extreme moves, that's volatility. When it's making
(01:23:08):
big moves, those of you who don't understand what volatility means.
Speaker 3 (01:23:12):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (01:23:13):
And what sort of software do you use to create
these changes of cryptocurrency?
Speaker 4 (01:23:21):
Say that again.
Speaker 3 (01:23:22):
Are you using a software? Are you manually trading between
bitcoin and changes?
Speaker 4 (01:23:30):
You can use one. It's called uh change now change
noow dot io. That's a good one. But a new
one we just got a hold of. Check this out.
It's called loom Acts. They actually have a passive investment
(01:23:50):
where we make money on it daily too, on people
making the exchange. So that's a new one.
Speaker 7 (01:23:56):
Loom x.
Speaker 4 (01:23:58):
Call us up for that one because damn affiliate to it.
And it is fantastic because you're doing the same thing
that Changed now did, but you can't make money off
of it. You can't make money off of other people
doing it.
Speaker 5 (01:24:11):
With loom x, you can.
Speaker 4 (01:24:13):
So that's a great one.
Speaker 3 (01:24:14):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (01:24:15):
Let me let me jump in here for a second.
Kevin and nine away from the top of our family
with the Mooney Twins. Kevin's also discussing cryptocurrency. Yeah, and
you mentioned Doge and that's Elon Musk is some of
your remember for what he called what his government agency
was doing, sort of cleaning up the government but that's
also a cryptocurrency family. So you know, Musk is thinking
(01:24:35):
ahead of the game. Here is this something? Is this
something that you guys would buy, because now he's back
in the government as well as you know he's at
that dinner the other night with Donald Trump and this
is not by accident what he's doing. So dosee is
a cryptocurrency. Is this something that you would embrace or
something or you're gonna watch it? How do you see?
Doge is a buy or sell?
Speaker 4 (01:24:57):
Or?
Speaker 1 (01:24:57):
Wait?
Speaker 4 (01:24:59):
Well, what what we do? We pretty much stick with
the stable coins for investments for long term those is
just a mean coin that we really don't pay a
lot of attention to because it doesn't have a lot
of what we call utility behind it. That means it's
not backed with something. It's not back with something of substance.
(01:25:19):
You know, Trump has his own coin. It's a mean coin. Uh,
but Obama has a coin. It's just no substance behind it.
Speaker 1 (01:25:28):
When you're doing when you say substance behind it, what
do you mean?
Speaker 4 (01:25:32):
In other words, there's no there's no utility, there's no backing,
there's no it's like almost like the dollar. Remember when
gold used to back the dollar. What is the coin doing?
Speaker 5 (01:25:44):
What is it?
Speaker 4 (01:25:45):
It's like why people are so crazy about x r P.
X r P actually has a utility behind it. A
lot of banking institutions are using XRP to transfer money money,
They're using the x r P system to do that.
So that's a vehicle. You want coins that have vehicles
(01:26:07):
behind it, that is actually something being done.
Speaker 1 (01:26:12):
And how do you know which ones have that? Though?
Speaker 4 (01:26:14):
Fellas well, there's stable coins. All your stable coins have
utility behind it. That's your big coin, your utility, your eth,
your XRP, your salama.
Speaker 3 (01:26:28):
Well what about ethereum?
Speaker 4 (01:26:30):
Ethereum? Yes, ethereum has utility behind it. Just write that down.
Stable coins state that. That's why it's called stable coins.
All right, let me.
Speaker 1 (01:26:41):
Jump in and ask you this. Then back to those things.
It's muscot all this money he couldn't eat, dump a
bunch of money behind those when that give it to
make it a stable coin?
Speaker 12 (01:26:52):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (01:26:53):
Those I mean you gotta believe, you gotta believe that
the money, Carl, is not us. The money is to utility.
How is it being used? Is it being used in
the industry? That's what gives us its power. That's why
people invest in it because it has utility behind its
(01:27:13):
meaning it's being used in the industry.
Speaker 3 (01:27:15):
But something popularity.
Speaker 4 (01:27:20):
No, no, see, a mean coin could be popular. See
when Trump from when Trump went into office and he
had the trump coin and coin, they did the party
and all that because they told him how to do
a coin. So when he had the Trump coin, because
he got elected, all of a sudden, all his people,
all his cronies invested in the Trump coin and all
(01:27:44):
the common people investing in it. That made it go up.
They bought it low. So when all the people invested
in it overnighty, it all went up, up and up.
So in forty eight hours, he made multiple millions, if
not billions off his Trump coin because a mean coin.
And that was like a money graph. Is that how.
Speaker 3 (01:28:08):
I'm sorry? Is that how Baron made his one fifty
million dollars was from no, no.
Speaker 4 (01:28:13):
No, no, that's the part of it. But Baron made
his one hundred and fifty million with their their family
owned company mining company. So the mining is creating the
coins itself, which can be creating big coin, It can
be creating ethereum, we could be creating different coins. The
(01:28:34):
mining is a foundation in the base. When they opened
up that company, he made one hundred and fifty million.
But remember the family owns the company, so they made
billions as a family because of these coins going up. Uh,
they just made money because they're mining. So they still
(01:28:55):
own that company, and that company is still making big money.
So they talked about his hundred fifty millions, but they
didn't talk about the family billions that they made off
of the mining company.
Speaker 3 (01:29:06):
And he's only nineteen years old.
Speaker 4 (01:29:09):
Nineteen years old, damn. You know. Yeah, people are listening
to this now fifty million.
Speaker 1 (01:29:17):
Right, you guys are throwing away, throwing thrown around millions
and millions of dollars and people thinking, I got to
pay the rent, I kept paying my phone bill, I
got my.
Speaker 4 (01:29:25):
Car, not to pay I gotta get my snap, right,
I didn't get my snap.
Speaker 1 (01:29:30):
You guys are throwing back. The baron's got a hundred bills.
Speaker 4 (01:29:34):
He got one hundred million, you see the right, it's
his game.
Speaker 1 (01:29:39):
And here's another thing too, that there was a dude
that that he Donald Trump just partnered. It's a big
player in the crypto game. And you feel as familiar
with with that person at Donald Trump, he just partnered
just last week and they were saying he had nothing
to do with crypto. But even though he was bigger
(01:30:00):
the crypto game, Wow, check it out. But the whole
I thought right that because we gotta check, we gotta
check the traffic and weather we come back. Maybe you
guys can look it up in the Betime four minutes
away from the top of they our family with the
Mooney Twins doll and do an if you know the
answer that question, just reach out to us at eight
hundred and four or five zero seventy eight seventy six,
or if you got a question about crypto, you can
speak to the Mooney Twins. We'll take your phone the
(01:30:20):
calls right after the traffic and weather. That's next. Grand
Rising Family Facts is staying with us on this Thursday morning.
With the Mooney Twins coming up shortly, we're gonna be
speaking with one of our scholars, one of our top grails,
Professor James Smaller. Right now we're talking money with the
Mooney Twins. Before we left for the break, I actually
about that. Did you guys look it up? Because I
looked it up and I found it.
Speaker 4 (01:30:39):
The Asian guy, the founder of Bince Binance. This is
an exchange and also a broker, crypto broker where you
can make trades, you can exchange coins, et cetera. He
pardoned him, and Trump actually said, I don't even know
(01:31:01):
who I pardon. I didn't know he was in the crypto.
Trump is lying. And somebody said, you brother Ron said
that Trump was bipolar. No, he's just Gemini.
Speaker 1 (01:31:15):
Yeah, in that company that's is that the company saying
binancis other company that is Sony's involved in and he's.
Speaker 4 (01:31:21):
Uh, Binances his own exchange. They were connected to some
company that that white guy that lost all that money
through crypto. I forgot the name of the company. But
Binance is still strong, still going on there, Binance USA,
(01:31:41):
and they also have Binance International. I'm actually with both
of them, and I moved money through Binance, so they're
alive and well. But he was the founder. He was
just connected in another investment opportunity that didn't do well
and and he went to jail and he was pardoned.
He was pardoned by Trump and Trump said he didn't
(01:32:06):
even know who he was. It's an Asian guy, Daryl.
Speaker 3 (01:32:09):
You let me give a shout at it. Seung Poun.
Speaker 4 (01:32:14):
Yeah, that's kind of Wow. I didn't even hear about that.
Speaker 6 (01:32:18):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (01:32:19):
Yeah, he served four months, Carol.
Speaker 4 (01:32:24):
You know crypto is big when they got to pardon you?
Speaker 1 (01:32:27):
Yeah, right, and you don't you don't know who he is, right,
you don't remember you don't know the person right ahead, Kevin?
What do you find out?
Speaker 2 (01:32:37):
According to CBS News, he paid a finance paid a
four billion dollar fine and.
Speaker 3 (01:32:45):
Four billion dollar fine.
Speaker 4 (01:32:46):
And yeah, a billion dollars to get your pardon. Trust.
Speaker 3 (01:32:55):
Yeah, it's all gag.
Speaker 4 (01:32:57):
You got. You guys know as well as we know.
It's all the big games. It's all the big money game,
it's all the big power game. We just got to
observe it, watch it, see what we can take advantage
of it, and take advantage of it, because as they're
putting it out here, they can't keep it away from
us little people. To be able to do the same
(01:33:19):
thing within the crypto industry, they may need moving billions,
but we can move thousands, We can move millions. We
can do the same thing they do it, maybe not
at that level, but we can do it at our
own level. We can start with twenty dollars, Brothers, twenty
dollars to get you involved. So we're just saying, hey,
get started. Understand it. Say it's a program in the
(01:33:42):
defire world that you can put up five dollars and
make twenty four percent of month. Yeah crazy? Yeah wow.
So getting the game the game.
Speaker 1 (01:33:52):
Right, that's going to be my question because how much money,
because it sounds you know, when we're talking about minutes
and billions of dollars, it sounds like you got you've
got to put up a Yeah, that's.
Speaker 4 (01:34:00):
Not what the big boys do.
Speaker 7 (01:34:02):
More.
Speaker 4 (01:34:02):
The big boys and girls do millions and millions. Again,
we gotta company. It's a company. You can put up
a dollar and make twenty four percent. Come up, I
just said nine dollars. Did you have to be put
up a dollar? It's crazy how you put up a dollar? Millions?
So anybody can get in. It's the knowledge that you
(01:34:23):
have to have. The knowledge is the key is you
can turn in a dollar into five dollars, five dollars
and twenty five dollars, twenty five dollars into one hundred dollars.
You can build on it, but you have to start,
and we are the people that get you started.
Speaker 1 (01:34:39):
Yeah yeah, So what do you need to get started?
Speaker 13 (01:34:44):
You need.
Speaker 4 (01:34:46):

Let me ask you this, man, Yeah, it does, it does?
Which which is better for you? Fellowship? Which is more
entertaining for you? Is it telling Joe so making money?
Speaker 4 (01:36:01):
God Man, why don't you be asking some kind of question?
Joe all money? Joe, all money? People tell Joe to
get the money. What if we just go straight for
the money and laugh all the way to the bank.
Speaker 1 (01:36:20):
That's a joke again. Did she always on though? That's
the question? See, we talked about that. As a comedian,
you guys are always on.
Speaker 4 (01:36:29):
Yes, one more question for you. You know.
Speaker 1 (01:36:34):
You know that there are some there are some comedians
that passed on. You know, we talked about a lot
of comedians earlier and Robbin Harris brings the name comes
up and Harris and even now and still find it
funny even though you've heard the joke. Is there a
comedian her mom's baby didn't hear when she was around,
But listen, Joe, and it's still funny. But is there
(01:36:55):
a comedians? You guys know that you you you respect
that it's probably gone, maybe still here, but the joke's old.
But you still hear him today and you still and
he still laugh.
Speaker 4 (01:37:05):
Is there any Michael Courier? Michael Courier tells the oldest
jokes on the planet and he makes them hilarious. Yeah, yeah, shoot, man.
When I watch old Robin Williams, man, my father did great.
They just make me laugh every time I watch them.
I watched old Tay YouTube got everybody up there, from
(01:37:28):
the old school to new school.
Speaker 5 (01:37:30):
I laugh.
Speaker 4 (01:37:31):
And anytime you want to get a good laugh, just
put up stand up comedy on YouTube and just watch.
You know, laughter is so so powerful laugh laugh laugh, laugh,
laugh laugh. Laught is healing. Listen to those communities. Our favorite,
Dwayne nine is conscious comedy. We love intelligence, social political
(01:37:55):
humor that's always educating you sugly but also making you
laugh at the same time. But there's all kinds of
comedy right now. Look at you the brother. What's Country Wane?
Speaker 5 (01:38:08):
This dude?
Speaker 4 (01:38:08):
Internet humor these you know, there's a there's some new
millionaire comedians being created just through social network like Country Wane.
Country Wayne is doing incredible comedy skits on YouTube and
on social media, and there's a lot of comedians taking
advantage of that. You have the traditional comedians who are
(01:38:30):
jealous and mad about that, but don't be jealous and
mad about the new technology because you will get left.
It's just like when the airplane comes came and people
was on the bus and they didn't want to catch
the plane. They got left. And that's what's happening with
people who.
Speaker 1 (01:38:46):
Are yeah, ten of us out because we've got Professor
Small on deck.
Speaker 4 (01:38:51):
But in Baltimore, Man, that's.
Speaker 1 (01:38:56):
Yeah, but kareem in Baltimore, won don't you speak to
you brothers before we go to Professor Small? He's online?
Speaker 4 (01:39:00):
Three, Hey, Peece, how you doing?
Speaker 14 (01:39:05):
I just wanted to ask because there is some stuff
about the crypto being used for criminal activity, because that's
what that's what that Asian guy was accused of, and
that's what he was indicted for. How how do we
avoid that type of catch bag for lack of a
(01:39:26):
better word, being involved in those.
Speaker 4 (01:39:28):
First thing you do you're avoided is first ball. You
don't do it using for criminal activity. Yeah, you don't
use it. That's the first piece. Because cryptocurrency is a
big universe, just like anything else, real estate, stock market,
just like anything else, there's always going to be criminal
(01:39:48):
activity involved in finances. You make sure you don't get
involved in it. You make sure you do your research
of a company, and you make sure you're not sending
your money in the criminals. And first of all, you
make sure you are not a criminal. That's where it starts,
because it's just like anything else, it's about you. It's
(01:40:09):
not about them. It's about you and what you are
using cryptocurrency for all.
Speaker 1 (01:40:14):
Right, fellas, eleven after top before bringing Professor Small one
more time. With that phone number, folks can reach you.
They want to get in the crypto game.
Speaker 4 (01:40:22):
Uh three two three four or five oh five three
four oh three two three four or five oh five
three four Old, We're going to be doing a meeting
today two o'clock. I talk and I'll invite you, so
you know what's going on, because this thing is about
education more than anything, Carl. You gotta be educated because
(01:40:46):
each one, reach one, each one, teach one, each one,
wealth one. That's what the game is about. Right now,
educate you.
Speaker 1 (01:40:54):
We're gonna get about to get educated from a professor
James Small. So I want to thank you, ye bus,
thank you.
Speaker 4 (01:41:01):
I love man James Ball, we love him.
Speaker 3 (01:41:05):
I love them.
Speaker 1 (01:41:06):
Well, do some comedy and help him too, because you know,
we need you fellas in the crypto world to start
helping some of our scholars out there because they need
some help out there. So if you you could do it.
Speaker 4 (01:41:16):
You know, we're working with one of our scholars. I'm
not gonna say his name, but a very important scholar
has been around a long time. We're in business partnership
and we're doing some incredible things together. These elders got
to look at cryptocurrency because we're elder coviy you know,
we are sixty seven years old. Young okay, think about
(01:41:39):
we are elders, my brother, young elders. So we elders
got to get involved because you got a lot of
comedians out there right now, been around a long time.
They are starved and man, they are driving Uber. They
are driving Uber and different cart different odd jobs. Hey,
we we decided let's getting involved in this investin so
(01:42:02):
we can create and get control of our own financial destiny,
because our economy is under our control right now, our control,
nobody else.
Speaker 1 (01:42:12):
Thanks fellers, thanks for joining us this morning.
Speaker 7 (01:42:15):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 4 (01:42:17):
All right, all right, everybody.
Speaker 1 (01:42:22):
Thin and down money. Those Paul's adults and many of
you recall it used to open for Dick Gregory and
their dad on the road. Now they're into crypto country,
into making money. They want to help money, help our community.
Grand Rising Professor James Small, welcome back to the program.
Speaker 6 (01:42:37):
Thank you very very very much, Carl, and I'd like
to get in touch with those but because I agree
that we've got to get involved in the new financial technologies.
That's the only movie going to make it right. You
can't be afraid of it.
Speaker 1 (01:42:54):
You know that too, and we need you know, with
all this new technology, even everything that's news, even the
digital age as we move into we've got to figure
out a way, Professor small, how we can use it
to enhance our position in this country or in the world,
if you will, because it's a global One of the
things that the Internet has made the world much smaller.
(01:43:14):
So we've got to figure out a way how we
can use it, whether it be big coin, whether it
be uh, you know, any of the Internet sources that
are platforms a out there. We've got to figure out
out how we can use it, even to get your
story out of there, how to help all these all
of our scholars. Are your thoughts on that?
Speaker 5 (01:43:30):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (01:43:30):
No, I agree one hundred percent. The brother used the
analogy of the people who were on the bus didn't
want to get on the plane and they got it
left behind. That's real. The technology of today, especially the
technology that allows us to manipulate finance, we must learn.
We watched the person who's the president of the United States,
(01:43:54):
he's making billions of a new technology while he's the
president and office, well his family is and the company is,
and people are getting mad with him. But I'm not
mad with him. Let me learn how to do that too,
and teach it to my people.
Speaker 1 (01:44:12):
You know, we're probably all doing the same thing. We're
in that position. You're going to help your children at some.
Speaker 6 (01:44:18):
Point, you know, absolutely no, the technology is technology. It
doesn't belong to anybody. Anybody that wisdom to learn and
use it. That's who's friends with the technology of today.
It's like radio. There was a time there was no radio.
(01:44:39):
Radio became a massive scientific achievement in terms of moving
information and it caused revolutions and everything from finances to education.
And we need to use everything that's available.
Speaker 4 (01:44:57):
That's what I want to talk about.
Speaker 1 (01:44:58):
This money. You know, Professor Small, we got to step
aside and we come back. Let's let's let's get to it,
because what we have now we need to create a
new paradigm for our people. We're sitting here watching as
we talk about the digital age. So what hopefully you
can tell us what's some of the issues that we
need to be doing, whether it be social, political, financial, religious,
How do we move into those spaces and take advantage
(01:45:20):
of the new technology for our people. I'll let you
address those issues when we get back. Family YouTube can
join our conversation coming up with Professor James Small. You
can reach us at eight hundred four or five zero
seventy eight seventy six at seventeen after the top of
that will take your phone calls next Grand Rising Family.
Thanks rolling with us on this Thursday morning. Call up
a coupe of French right now and tell them Professor
James Small's on the radio. Just call up a couple
(01:45:41):
just two. They'll thank you later. Because what we're going
to discuss is very, really, really important. Because we talk
a lot, Professor Small about we need a Black agenda.
We need something to take us into the next year
and beyond because the situations around us have changed. We're
now in the digital age, is the Mooney Twins mentioned,
but also you know ef, it's a change on the social, political, religious,
(01:46:03):
financial ways of doing things have changed, and one of
the concerns for some folks is that our people are
not up to snuff. We're always on the late train.
So I'm just wondering if you can help us out
this morning because the problems are still there. The problems
of racism still there. It's not going to go away.
But how can we how can we mitigate some of
those problems. You know, some people, when something happens, we're
(01:46:23):
usually a reactionary and we march, and then we forget
about it after it's back in the memory bank, until
it's someone thing helps, something else happens to us as
a people, we're all upset, and then we march and rally,
and then you know, a couple of months, something happened,
and something happens to one of us, and somehow we
figured out, well, I think we should change that. I
(01:46:43):
just want to get to your thoughts on that.
Speaker 6 (01:46:46):
Well, it doesn't change the formula. The technology is new,
but the formula for change is the same. One of
those formulas is you've got to study history. You cannot
go forward and let you know where you're coming from.
(01:47:10):
I mean, you're in a place of being a blank
if you don't.
Speaker 15 (01:47:15):
Have a history to make reference to. Knowing myself, meaning
knowing your people. For instance, I'm.
Speaker 6 (01:47:25):
From South Carolina. I know I'm Lucille and Paul Johnson's son.
I know I'm Susan and Andrew Grandson. I know I'm
Peter and Martha great grandson. I knew that they were
farmers initially, and I knew that my father became an electrician,
self learned, self taught, and then went to RCA. I
(01:47:49):
knew that my mother went to a beauty culture school
and became a beautician, and they moved to New York
and found work. I knew that my mother, who I
loved more than any thing on the planet Earth, was
involved and the movement with Malcolm X and the movement.
I knew that my father was involved in the union organizing,
(01:48:10):
and all those things are the things that tell James
Small who I'm going to be based on who these
people in my history. Something as basic as that Mama
and Daddy did these things. Let me try to learn
from those things. That's how they raised eleven kids, and
nobody was on drugs, and nobody went to prison, and
(01:48:31):
all of us survived, and me married and had kids,
and most of us went to college, and nearly all
of our children went to college. That pathway got set
down by somebody that made up our history. That's just
the most basic thing. Then, what is the history of
my people? I'm from the most fantastic people in the world.
(01:48:54):
Talking now about my ethnic nation, the African American peoples,
we have made contributions to technology does not rival by
in the last two hundred years, then no one in
the world can rival you know, we have even under
the circumstances of the worst form of slavery, chattel and
(01:49:17):
what we called Jim Crow, which was in a continuation
of legalized cattle slavery without the change for a couple
of hundred years. And in the midst of all of that,
we built something like three hundred black communities. It wasn't
just Tulsa. And many of them got attacked and burnt
down and we got murdered, but we didn't quit. We
(01:49:40):
kept looking for new ways. We built bus companies because
that was the modern thing of the time. How do
you move masses of people to work? That was new technology.
So in Raleigh, North Carolina, he says, look at the
white bus company won't care black folks, So we don't
carry the black black people. We built our own bus company.
And when the white bus company couldn't compete, this city
came to us and asked the black people, can you
(01:50:02):
move the whole city? And so we became the bus
company for Raleigh, North Carolina. That's just one thing or
we go and looking at the turn of the century
with Maggie walk Up down in Richmond, Virginia. Her mom
dad was born in slavery. Maggie started to St. Luke's
Penny Association because we couldn't bank in white banks, and
she built one of the biggest bank black or white
(01:50:24):
in Richmond, Virginia. She was able from the wealth of
that bank to open one of the first department store
in this country and at the time using black mannequins
because no one else would use them, and hired all
black women. She had an all black women's department store
down in Richmond, Virginia. They tried to deny, to deny
her in history, but she with that capital that she
(01:50:47):
amassed from the Saint Luke's Penny Saving Associations, he built
this massive bank. She was able to loan money to
black people in Richmond, to open business, to buy homes,
to Saint Kisa College. It's like the formula is the same.
The technology is just gonna enchance how we do it.
Everybody should get on board and learn AI, not be
(01:51:09):
afraid of AI. We need to master the AI I'm
getting ready to do the AI classes, not next week,
you know what I'm saying. I'm on inside. I'm eighty
years old, right, I'm on Instagram, I'm on that. I'm
on Facebook. Every day people call me because this is
me up two and three in the morning. I'm kicking it.
Using the technology to spread information. I'm a historian, so
(01:51:32):
my thing is how do I use this technology to
spread information and enlighten my people on things economic, political,
and cultural. Because that's my thing.
Speaker 1 (01:51:42):
You know, Well, that's where I was going. How do
we use the new technology to get that message across
Because now we're in a sort of a crossroads, just
through a lower inflection point in our community. Living here
in this country. Some people decided that it's time to
go back home, quote unquote home to the continent. Some
people want to remain here. You've got an idea what
(01:52:05):
will work or in Africa, what will work in the
United States. So that's why we have you here this morning.
For the folks who are thinking about relocating, giving up
on this country. I want you to help them out.
And the folks are gonna stay here because not everybody
can goss the reality. So some of us got to
stay here because we can't.
Speaker 6 (01:52:23):
Most of us are gonna stay here. There's nothing wrong
with that. We stay here because we built here. And
the way to really understand that again, you go back
to history. We built here. You tell people, we built here,
past the cotton fields, pass the sugar cane fields. There
is no technology in America that we weren't involved in creating.
(01:52:46):
From the electric light to the telephone, to the computer
to the chips. We have been involved in all of it.
We just haven't been involved in owning it because of
the racism and the laws and rule. But now that's
the technocracy that makes America the wealthiest, most powerful company
in the world would never have happened. So now we've
(01:53:08):
got to study history so that we can understand how
can we best then use that technocracy for ourselves.
Speaker 1 (01:53:17):
You know, Doc, I tell folks all the time, we
are twenty eight minutes off the top of our family.
Those are who going to work at school this morning?
I guess it's Professor James Small, Professor to oology. We
have some of the smartest, the brightest minds working in
this country, I know, overseas, all over, but they're working
for the other folks. They're not working for us. How
can we crown and they don't. We don't need all
(01:53:38):
of them, just a few of them to do what
you're doing, you know, using the history of our culture
to move us as a group of people, move us
forward instead of just sitting there because their contributions to
the world and people, you know, they don't get the recognition.
We don't know who they are, but we know that
every sector of society, business, finance, whatever it is, we
(01:54:01):
got people look like me and you family, but they're
just working for the other folks. How can we get
some of those people, pull some of those folks back.
Speaker 6 (01:54:09):
I'm dropping the magic word again. We've got to study history,
history of racist the mystery. Look at the ethnic group
or racial groups that are doing the best economically in
the world. And the one thing they have that others
don't have is a tight united racial grouping centered around
(01:54:29):
specific cultures or cultural events. And all a cultural event
is the commemoration of something in the history of the
group that is significant and the group can relearn over
and over to use advance itself. And so we've got
to learn how to be a racial group, how to
(01:54:52):
be an ethnic group, I don't want to call their names,
but just look at the ones who are successful and
see what is the things they got that you don't have.
That little word you and it t hy we take
it for granted. You know we're talking now on buntu.
Speaker 5 (01:55:13):
You know you and me.
Speaker 6 (01:55:14):
Well, let's stop using the cliches and let's build Ambuntu.
Let's build the kind of unity where I shop. If
I've got to do ads on and I need ads
on the radio, let me go to Cassley Hughes and
her network because that network is feeding the Black community.
(01:55:35):
Let the black community, elements of the community who have
my ads shop with me. They would say, oh, I
can get a better quality, I can get it cheaper
if I shop with this other group who's not African.
But then you're building them. You want to build yourself.
You've got to learn the price of shopping with me,
(01:55:57):
because that's what makes the other group. So that unity
comes from from the unity comes from having a knowledge
of history. Car it seems so simple. People don't want
to catch it in your history is the glue that
(01:56:17):
binds you together economically, politically, and culturally. It is the
cause all content have intent. What is the intent of
our content, meaning our economic content, our political content. We're
going to spend this year over two trillion dollars in
North America. Now what is that money going to be
(01:56:39):
spent on and who is it going to be spent with?
If our content is have an intent that don't allow
us to aggregate that money in the way Carle Anderson said,
then we're going to stay in the same position, be
the trillion dollar negro, the two trillion dollars negro, and
we're still living in poverty a large segment of Now
(01:57:00):
let's be clear, most of our people are not impoplished,
but a large segment about people is impoplished, okay, And
that large segment interferes and disturbs the progress and the
solidarity of the group that is not impoverished. And then
so poverty that affects the entire group. Whether you are
(01:57:23):
homeless or not. You may be in Maryland, whether medium
income in your city is two hundred thousand dollars. But
if you've got a wire about me coming in your
city and stealing your Mercedes because I need to get
another fixed because I'm stuck in DC and hooked on heroin,
you're as impolished as I am. So what do we
(01:57:47):
do about the situation of our unemployed? What do we
do about our group, meaning our racial unemployed? What do
we do about our unemployables? What do we do it?
But the those who can't afford to be healthy? And
the only people that can solve this problem is those
(01:58:08):
of us who have the degrees, those of us who
have the wealth, those of us who have the businesses.
We've already proven we know how to survive. How do
we then make the others know how to survive? And
we can't do that unless we realize we have a relationship.
We have a relationship, and in that relationship, we have
(01:58:29):
an obligation.
Speaker 11 (01:58:32):
You know.
Speaker 6 (01:58:32):
Look at the successful groups we can call them. Look
at the Chinese group, look at the Jewish group, Look
at the Vietnaminis group, look at the White Anglo Saxon group,
look at the successful group. We can call them all
the names we want to call them. They are successful
around things economics, they're successful around things political, they're successful
(01:58:54):
around things cultural because they have one thing in mind
as the intent of their content is unity. See but
that you were here being your intent, you're not going
to be able to aggregate your content. Then that we
say is nice enough for y'all. You gotta take your
(01:59:18):
your your content and allow your intent to determine how
that content is used.
Speaker 1 (01:59:25):
All right, Professor Small, twenty six minutes away from the top.
We're coming into a holiday season now, and we saw
what the what what the boycott did to target I'm
gonna say, if you heard the Ladies News, they got
to lay off a bunch of their folks that cut
back because they're not getting the traffic that they used
to get. And this is all, you know. Jamal Bryant
started this, and we're coming in to the holiday season
and Dick Gregan, he used to talk about it, you know,
(01:59:47):
but he was straight up. He was saying, you should
boycott Christmas too. We're too connected to Christianity to give up,
you know, celebrating Christmas.
Speaker 6 (01:59:56):
What's the method of boycott? We should whitecott. We're not
going to get our people to boycott Christmas as a
holiday because it's embedded in their spiritual being. And there's
nothing wrong with that. I mean, you have to We
adopted Christianity because we were in this condition and the
(02:00:18):
situation in America, and we use it to our best advantage.
Those who adopted Islam in Africa. They're the same Islam
wasn't born out of Africa. He had almost fifty percent
of Africa mustens and they've adopted the Abi Islam and
made it an African Islam to use for themselves. We've
got to be able to understand that being Christian don't
(02:00:38):
mean succumbing to the culture of another group, because that
group is doing Christianity, but they're not to coming to
African culture. They're that's the coming to Asian culture. They
use in that Christian system to advance and promote and
to unify and to ethnicize and to moralize themselves for
the sake of them being able to be a healthy family,
(02:00:58):
a healthy community, and a healthy nations. We have to
be clear and technology is needed in all of this
because the biggest technology of technological advances in the world
today is the communications technology. We talk about social media
like it's poisoned. Let me talk about it in the
black community. You know, social media is run of the
(02:01:19):
highest use of technology in the world today and is
making people billionaires and trillionaires because of the information flow
that you now have access to. But you can't say
yet you love the new technology. And I know most
brothers and sisters my age, they're not using it. They
barely know how to use a cell phone. They're afraid
(02:01:40):
of using a cell phone, let alone using Instagram or
using Facebook, or getting up every night like I do,
and spend an hour putting together your story a message
of photo essay that carries a message about black people.
You know that you hope they learn from brother saying
(02:02:01):
we love Professor Small. Well, they don't love me because
I got the name Professor Small. It's because I spent
hours and hours and hours sharing information that is useful
for the economic, political, and cultural development of the African group.
Speaker 1 (02:02:17):
Right and hold that thought right there, Professor Swell. We
got to step aside for a few moments. I'll thed
you finish up. And we also got a tweet question
two that says, please ask doctor Smalls. If most Black
households are headed seventy two percent by women, many uneducated,
how can we ever ever reach a critical mass of
educated and skilled Blacks needed to move us forward. I'll
let you respond to that when we get back twenty
(02:02:38):
three minutes away from the top of our family. You
want to join this discussion with Professor James Small. Reach
out to us at eight hundred four five zero seventy
eight seventy six and we'll take all your phone calls
next and Grand Rising family, thanks for staying with us
on this Thursday morning. We're like I guess Professor James Small.
Professor Small is one of our top scholars, is a
grill in our community. He's got the answers for us.
And I mentioned earlier, you call up a couple of friends,
(02:03:00):
is that you know that not listening who you think
need to hear this message. They'll thank you letter tell
them to tune in because Professor Small is going to
be bowling down their alley today. Before we left Oover
with Professor Small, Tweeter said, please ask doctor Small. If
most Black households are headed by seventy women, many of
them are uneducated, how can we ever ever reach a
(02:03:20):
critical mass of educated and skilled Blacks needed to move
us forward?
Speaker 6 (02:03:25):
First, most Black household are not headed by seventy percent women.
That's too high. Most black household I headed. There's about
the national staff that's just been out last month, about
twenty five percent a black household was headed by women
who don't have spouse in about fifty percent is headed
(02:03:48):
by women who do have spouses, and so what we're
talking about and at the same time, women are also
leading in the home ownership and the black community. And
the formula is simple. Women have a greater access and
the greater success rate in education than the black men
(02:04:09):
by almost fifty percent, and so that gives them access
to jobs and finance and income that the black men
don't have. And that's not a complicated formula to understand
that education leads to better employment, leads to greater financial development,
(02:04:29):
and allow for you to access housing, food and clothing
in your community. Because you remember the bottom line. We
can say all the things, the pretty things we want
to say. The bottom line is can you provide the food,
the clothing, the shelter and the safety for yourself and
your family? How do you do that? That's the prime
(02:04:51):
motivation for the world. Let's keep it simple. We're going
to college to do what to make money? We want
to make money to do what to buy food, clothing,
and shelter. Let's stop making it complicated. You don't go
to college to be a lawyer. You want to be
a lawyer to make money. You know someone said, I
(02:05:13):
want to be a lawyer, I want to be a doctor,
I want to be No, you're doing all of that
because that's going to lead to an income that's going
to allow you to provide the fundamental necessity that all
human beings need, food, clothing, shelter, and safety. Let's be real,
Let's keep it. I think the kid says, keep it,
(02:05:34):
keep it number one or keep it one hundred. We
try to miss the point. If you can't feed yourself,
for you impoverished. If you can't clothe yourself and house yourself,
you impoverished. How do you get rid of the poverty
of not being able to do food, clothing, shelter and safety.
Everybody wakes up in the morning with that aspiration in mind,
everybody across the world. And so if you look at
(02:05:56):
the rate of which Black women are getting degrees, they're
getting degrees as the higher rate than any other group
men or women in the world. If you look at
the rate of which black women, because of access to
that degree, is making capital that's allowing them to buy homes,
they're buying homes that are higher rates than almost anybody
in the world except maybe one or two community, maybe
(02:06:19):
the Asian community in certain sectors, and again the Jewish
community and certain sectors. So you tie education has got
to be tied to income because income is motivated by
the need for food, calling, shelth and safety. And so
the black women isn't leading the household because some of
(02:06:41):
rome with black men. The black women is reading the
household because the black women have had access to education,
not just higher education. If you go down to elementary school,
the manner in which black males are handled in elementary schools,
junior high and high school determines whether they're going to
make it to college or not. And the man in
(02:07:02):
which black women are handled by teachers black or white.
And so the control of education should be an essential
element of the black community because education isn't about getting
fame or education isn't about talking about greater accomplish The
education is about cannot provide food, clothing, health, to safety.
(02:07:24):
At the end of the day, for my family and
most of us, household where the statistics says black women
are the head, what they mean is that the black
woman is the leading income maker for that household. That
the black woman more likely owns the house, and she
more likely owns the car. But there's a male in
that house, his income may not be man in most
(02:07:46):
instances is less than fifty percent of what the income
of the woman is. So we have to also be
clear on how we look at this thing, and I'll
get played and pocket by other people talking of a
gender distinction and be clara about family development. So it
doesn't really matter who's bringing the income into the house.
(02:08:07):
I certainly couldn't compete with my wife, who was a
medical doctor, in terms of the income, but I did
everything that was necessary to make sure she could go
to medical school. We had children all along. I used
to be called mister Mom because I go to my
work with one child strapped to the back and two
in a STROLLO made space to my office for them.
Speaker 4 (02:08:26):
You know.
Speaker 6 (02:08:26):
I made sure that she could study and do all
the things she needed to do because that income is
going to help their family, not theil woman. And so
we've managed to be together for fifty four years and
raise six children and gave them all a college degree
and graduate degree so that they can learn how to
(02:08:48):
raise their family. By being able to financially support their family.
The education and income is tied together in a knot
that one should not even want to untie, you see,
And so that brings it back down to the basic
politics at the local level, and every community black community
(02:09:08):
in the country, you must control the basic politics at
the local level to determine the type of education quality
that your children's going to get so that that next
generation would be able to do more financially for themselves
and being able to provide food, clothing, shelf and safety.
If we come back down to the basics, you have
(02:09:31):
got to vote, but if you are educated not to vote,
and a lot of people in our community unfortunately saying
it doesn't do any good and like these people in
their corrupt Yes, all of that is going on in
everybody's community. Now, how do you get control of your
situation to minimize those things. We just saw a mayor
(02:09:54):
in New York get driven a black mayor get driven
out of office with false innuendos by the white press
who has never proven any charges against the man. And
we saw that the biggest black administration in the history
of New York City is about to be dismantled by
(02:10:15):
other ethnic groups who did not fight for any of
these things. Because we allow ourselves to be manipulated by
the technology in the media of another ethnic group. So
black people need to make sure that the information that
informs them on how to develop a community is in
their hands. And we've lost most of the media in
(02:10:38):
New York. We haven't any real black media in New
York to talk about. I think one radio station and
the newspaper that's stumbling on whether it is a black
information at work or not. And so all of this
is tied together, though, Carl. You can't separate your information,
the thing that informs you of how to survive in
(02:11:00):
the academic, political, and cultural arena, from the things that
educate you to be proficient into such a degree that
you use the technology that make yourself necessary for industry
so you can make income to come back home and
put that food on the table, buy that house, pay
that mortgage, buy that car, pay thus college tuition. That's
(02:11:22):
what this is all about. We've got to make it simple.
But as the foundation of it, you got to vote.
You've got to learn how to run the political apparatus
in your community. You got to run the city council
that makes a decision on how much money goes to education.
You've got to be able to be the policeman. You
can't say I hate to pay I hate the police,
but you keep leaving it open for the right wing
(02:11:45):
racist to come in and get those jobs and police
your community. When we have enough black males and females
in our population who are tooled enough and skilled enough
to become the people that run the security of our
community and guarantee the safety of our population, it's a
common sense. Then if and this doesn't change whether you
(02:12:05):
live in Africa or in America, You're not going to
go to Africa and not needful weakness. You're not going
to go to Africa and not want to own a house.
You're not going to go to Africa unless you can
make an income to pay your bills and provide the food, clothing,
and shelter. You may get some advantages of the stress
being removed, not having to live under the stress of
(02:12:27):
this racist dominant society that's sickening, but all of the
other basic needs and necessities will remain the same. So
how do we meet those obligations? And so first you
got to make family your core, not the black male,
(02:12:48):
not the black female. Black males can't have children by themselves,
and black females can't have children by themselves. Black males
and black females both need the emotional love of one another.
Family should be the key organization that you're struggling to build.
In order to build that organization called a family, and yes,
(02:13:08):
family is the first most primary organization that you are
a part of. How do we build and maintain that
organization called a family? We've got to provide food. We've
got to provide clothing. We've got to provide shelter. How
do we provide food, clothing, shelter. We got to be
in control of the economics. We've got to be in
control of the politics. We've got to be in control
(02:13:30):
of the culture where we live. You know, in that
geographical space we are living and sleeping every night. How
do we get control of that. We've got to tooled
and skilled ourselves through education. I can't say it any simpler.
I've broken it down and the most common denominator and
then you can put all the frills on. Once you've
(02:13:52):
accomplished that basic.
Speaker 1 (02:13:56):
Gotcha, shaved it away from the top of Professor's well,
some folks want to talk to you. Ready, Let's take
our first call to Atlanta. Sean John's reaching out. He's
online one grand Rising, Shawn John. Your question for a Professor.
Speaker 11 (02:14:07):
Small, Grand Rising, Professor Small car a fan of yours,
Professor Small, all the knowledge and information you put Pruss
Small because all get right, y'all won't get it right
to it, okay, And I'm with you with everything. And
what we have to do is Black people to come
(02:14:27):
together and formulay our on and have our on. So
these groups who really come over here, I know, we
try to give them clap clap that they did this,
they did that. But you got to understand too, got
the small too that And I know you know when
we go as an African American or Black people to
(02:14:49):
try to get small loans at banks, we're not approved.
When they come over, say they group, they'll put fifteen
in a they'll come over with their Asians. Who who
get the gas they is they have you know, the
whig shops they have, you know, the nail shops, all
of that. So they said no, so we go, we can't.
They're want to prove us because you know, they took
(02:15:10):
everything from us, and the best way to destroy races
is take away their ability to produce.
Speaker 6 (02:15:17):
I agree with you one hundred percent. Let me respond
to that. Right, first, don't blame the victims. Those other
poor people coming over looking to feed their families, food, clothing,
and shelter. They're not coming over attacking us, and they're
looking to eat like us. Right, Let's look and see
what the formula is. We know that the white racist
(02:15:39):
financial institutions and individuals are afraid of only one group,
the African Americans. One because we are the second largest
ethnic nation in America. Two because we have a different direction.
Three because our relationship to the motherland of Africa, with
some people are tried to deny foolishly, will allow us
to tap into the lodge, this source of wealth in
(02:16:01):
the world, if we had the organization and the technology
to do it. And so what we've got to do
is make some fundamental decisions. Do I shop at that
weak store that is not black, or do I get
together with a few brothers, assistants and to the money
we do have and open a wig store worthy to
be shopped that is black. Now that's the decision you
(02:16:24):
got to make. You can't say, well, there ain't no
black wakestore, then them would open one. Okay, Do I
go to that gas station that's owned by other ethnic
groups that don't hire my people. I may organize my community.
We make a demand. You ain't selling no gas up
in here because we ain't buying no gas. We ain't
got even pick at you. We just send a delegation
(02:16:46):
there with a letter we will not shop with you
unless we see our people employed as they're represented in
the community, which in most cases many majority of your
employees have to be black people so they can learn
how to run a gas and eventually put their money
together and open. One is buying into a franchise that
requires capital. We are going to spend over two trillion
(02:17:08):
dollars this year, so we have the capital. We do
not have the sense of what group organization and race organization.
Speaker 5 (02:17:19):
Is.
Speaker 6 (02:17:20):
And I know a lot of people and my little
system may jump on the airtog my manzani. I'm not
interested in mister Manzani. I'm interested in black leadership. We
had black leadership in New York. You didn't if you
didn't have to like mister Adam's demeanor. Mister Adams had
more black people to run government in New York City
(02:17:41):
than ninety five mayors before him ever did. And you're
not looking at that all of that is now going
to be lost because they're going to all be replaced, right,
And you didn't understand the value of that because you
didn't like his demeanor. You didn't understand that New York City,
right has one point fifteen billion dollars, well, no, one
(02:18:05):
hundred and fifteen one hundred and fifteen point five billion
dollars as his main daily budget. It has one hundred
and seventy three point six billion dollars as his ten
year capital budget. All of that was in the hands
of a black mayor who was distributing it for the
first time across the racial line pretty equal. He was
(02:18:28):
distributing it to the Asians, to the black, to the
white folks, to everybody. And those folks was who was
used to having one hundred percent of that under their control.
Now we're relegated to fifty percent. And that's why Adams
had to go. Had nothing to do with his speaking
to Trump because Mondani's going down to dining the Trump
today or tomorrow, and nobody's going to vilify him for
(02:18:49):
doing it.
Speaker 1 (02:18:50):
Right, I'm not feeling Professor small will to take a
short break here were stations can identify themselves down. How
didn't you pick it up and tell us what's going
on in New York?
Speaker 4 (02:18:57):
Shit?
Speaker 1 (02:18:58):
You want we get back family to you two can
wants to speak to Professor Small. Reach out to us
at eight hundred four or five zero seventy eight seventy
six and we'll take your phone calls next and grind
rising family. Thanks for staying with us and our guests.
Professor Small, we're discussing our future. What would we do?
Before he left for the bank, he mentioned that mcdonnie
has in control of a lot of money and billions
(02:19:19):
of dollars in the city council, and before Mandonna, we
also had uh David Dinkins was mayor black mayor. But
but Professor Smaller, you go uptown, go up to Harlem,
go up to one hundred and twenty fifth Street, or
most of the business is still black, I mean still white.
That's probably so what's how much control do they really have?
That's my question though, yep.
Speaker 6 (02:19:41):
Well, the point is people don't understand the nature of America.
The politics in America is race politics. Now, mister mundonnih
he's probably going to be put forth an excellent effort,
and we don't take anything from a brilliant young man,
(02:20:02):
But he's not my brilliant young man. He's from another
estignation and he has multiple other interests pulling on him
to make him deliver for their community so that they
can have the food, clothing, shelter necessary to raise their families.
I'm saying, we saw what happened. What crime did mister
(02:20:27):
Adams commit that he should not be the mayor? What
promise did mister Mundani or mister what's the other one
name that was running the other two? All of them
were saying the same thing. Mandonni was smart enough to
youse technology and a one and organizing with the youth
to make his message of housing. Everybody was saying they
want to bring the price of housing down. Everybody was
(02:20:49):
saying they wanted to bring the price of grocery down.
Nobody said anything different. It was how they were saying it.
And he was where the main media while the media,
the same media who was attacking Adams, was the same
media promoting Mandani and none of that media was black owned. Now,
(02:21:11):
what was that message that we're supposed to get from that?
And I gave the budget of New York That says right,
Now that's in the hands of mostly black persons, all
of whom will be out of office in a few months,
and it will be in the hands of the other
ethnic group. You think those other ethnic group gonna address
(02:21:34):
the black issues. Even on the night of election, the
young man mentioned every ethnic configuration in New York except
African Americans. Now, that may have been a Freudian slip,
but history has told me better. History erases the mystery.
And back to us, Carl, if we're going to spend
(02:21:54):
two trillion dollars and back to the brothers of Atlanta.
Don't blame the immigrant population. They're just people looking for jobs,
just like us. And yes, we know the racists prefer
them because they're not going to put a demand for
racial change in America. They're trying to join the racist
and his behavior and culture while maintaining their culture. We
(02:22:16):
are the group that's fighting against the racists. We are
the group that's forcing change in the structure. So the
racist see us as primary enemy Enemy number one, meaning
the Black American grouping. But we can't get caught up
in being the enemy and becoming the enemy of the
new immigrants. We need to win them over to our signe.
(02:22:37):
Let them understand what the reality of America is and
how they're being used to help the marginalize the African American.
Complaining about them is not helping. Driving them more in
the enemy campus not helping. We need to get wiser
and how we do propaganda and share information just like
they do. And our money that two trillion dollars in
(02:22:58):
our hands, are we going to to go? Are we
going to find a way to aggregate that two trillion
dollars and go to a black community like East Saint
Louis that's ninety eight percent Black, yet we own hardly
ten percent of the business. Are we going to go
there and buyt Lewis out by the other ethnic outsid
of ninety eight percent black and run East Saint Louis.
(02:23:20):
Who's sitting now, what sorority or fraternity? A black political
economic organization that's coming up with a plan to do
that in Sint Lewis and all the other East Saint
Louis and America where we are the majority in that community.
We've got the plan as a black people, we have
been planning as individual with the aspiration of joining the
(02:23:41):
white club, hanging out in the white spaces and not
even showing the dignity and the integrity that a people
should show and responding to the worst the group who
have committed the worst genocide in the history of the
world against us almost a five hundred year period. Because
(02:24:02):
we don't have a memory, we don't understand our history,
and we minimize the marginalized history. And so you get
you to make the dollar, make the dollar. You make
the dollar, and you spend it with the people who
are going to make sure your son and your daughter
can't make the dollar. And I hope I'm making sense
without complicating things, because it's not that complicated. It not
(02:24:28):
that complicated.
Speaker 1 (02:24:30):
Truly, you makeing sense this morning at eight after the
top day. Let's take another call for you though. Professor
Small Tyrone is calling from Maryland. He says he has
a political question for you. He's online too, Grand Rising Tyrone,
you're own with Professor.
Speaker 6 (02:24:41):
Small Grand Rising.
Speaker 5 (02:24:47):
Yes, that brother, this is the time whether you have
to challenge the eldest brother. You started a storm on
this radio the last time you was here. You might
not even know, Lord, I didn't know it. You just said,
you just said a keyword. We must not drive our
young people into an enemy camp. Brother, when you came
(02:25:10):
on this station the last time and you said that
we should participate in everything that America has to offer,
including the military and everything you said that, Brother, it's
been a storm on this radio of people who disagree
(02:25:30):
with you and people who agree with you. So we've
been in debate. And brother Qracy knows this because I'm
a father over eight four boys and fourth girl. There's
no way that I will allow anybody being under the
teaching of Elijah Muhammad for thirty six years, who went
(02:25:53):
to prison because he refused to go into the war. Now,
it is against the law to get on this radio
state when a war has started and tell our young
people not to go in. You can be arrested for that.
But before the war starts, you can say that all
day and every day. Now, if you said it in
(02:26:13):
the perspective of that they should go in the military
like the spook who sat beside the door, to take
what they've learned there and bring it back and use
it to teach their people guerrilla warfare. Many people would
agree with you. But because you are a scholar and
we respect you, you know what's happening with the lie
(02:26:35):
that they're telling in Nigeria to go in and justify
killing and ravishing those people's oil like Argentina and that
forty billion dollars.
Speaker 6 (02:26:48):
But don't give me too much to remember now because
I'm old, No, no, because.
Speaker 5 (02:26:52):
I'm inn and wood the point. But you know what's
happening in Venezeuela. They are getting ready to go to
an unjust war. So why should we tell our children
to join the crypts in the bloods and be used
on the front line, as Brother Quacy say, to be
killed when we know this is an unjustifiable war, that
(02:27:15):
they're planning to take these people natural resources and use
our babies to do their dirty beans. Why should we
tell our young people to go in that military that.
Speaker 6 (02:27:30):
That I'm not going to buy into your narrative. That's
the first thing. Yes, the Honibi Logia went to deail
for resisting to go in the military. I went in
the military and I resisted going to Vietnam. Then you
want to hear my story and all the other black
men who resisted going to Vietnam. And we were in
the military, and some of us for court martial and
(02:27:51):
some of us got killed, but we didn't go and fight.
Many went to fight because they didn't know any better.
They didn't know what we knew. I went in the
military already, haven't met Malcolm Maxim, was already informed by
many things coming from the nation, Mslam, and from my parents.
My father served in the military, my brother served in
the military, and all of them came back home and
(02:28:12):
served in the Black movement, and most of them became Muslims.
Speaker 5 (02:28:16):
You know.
Speaker 6 (02:28:16):
So this thing is somehow our minds are so weak
that we're going to go in the military and all
of a sudden, we're going to be a bunch of
enemies of black people. That most of the men that
helped built the black community after the Second World wal
with black men who served in the military. So don't don't,
don't let's give a false narrative. Some of we're going
to lose our minds completely. I didn't lose mine, and
(02:28:38):
many of those young men I struggled didn't lose theirs.
And my friends who got blown up in that truck,
fifteen of them in that nine we were all resisted,
you know. So that's the myth that we one of
the things we haven't been able to stop. The bloods
and the crypts slaughtering our community. They looked just like us,
(02:28:59):
and we haven't stopped them. And they're all in partnership
with the white crime drug dealer and a big part
of those drug dealers with the US government itself. Let's
study real history. Most ethnic groups in this country use
the military to advance themselves. It's just like you got
to use the police force. You got a police force
(02:29:19):
right now in most black dominant city and the police
force is still predominantly white. What is wrong with us?
Something sick about that and we can't rationalize why we
should in droves showing that police force. One of the
pathway to being the policeman is to use the military.
I don't care what he's saying about Nigeria. We know
(02:29:42):
that these people are our enemy. What's happening the Nigeria
isn't nothing new. They would support. They're supporting the very
groups that they're talking about. They created the al Kaita
in Africa, they created the Boka Haram when Nigeria could
have destroyed Boca Horam years ago. Can step in and
stop them. So let's study the history so we know
(02:30:02):
the mystery conside a trick asids really playing and we
can make the narrative what it really should be. We
know we're dealing in the most vicious government in the world.
There's a single war they've ever had that was justifiable.
The war against us every day by the American intelligence
apparatus is not justifiable. But if we don't get some skills,
(02:30:24):
if we don't get some training, if we don't use
this country to advance ourselves, there is no dignity in
going to prison. And you can't take care of your
wife and kids. I've taught it in enough prison and
embarrassed enough brothers. What are you doing here while somebody
else is taking care of your wife and child? They're
not there. And you've given jobs to white folks to
(02:30:45):
cook your food and to be your corrections offices, and
to be your parole offices, and to be your lawyers.
And you're going to glorify that. You can't do that.
We've got to use the system like everybody else, and
some of us is going to be lost in that battle.
But we're getting lost now and we're not achieving enough
of what black males should achieve. Our household shouldn't be
(02:31:08):
fifty percent black female running it financially it should not
be twenty five percent. But there's no spouse in that household.
That's our fault, black men, because we're not learning the
lessons of how to build in a society. And yes,
some of us are going to get lost in the
wars of the white man if we go into this military,
but most of us will come back home with skills
(02:31:29):
and tools and position to better our family if that's
our goal. But I don't see the goal now. If
we can do that without going in the military, I said, fine,
do it. But this opposition to military and police is
foolish because we've never really taken on the challenge. A
few brothers in the Panther Party in the Black Liberation
(02:31:50):
Army challenge the police militarily. We're not in a position
to militarily challenge America stop dreaming. We're not in position
to do that. Position to wage guerrilla warfare. We tried that.
I was one of those guerrillas that tried that and survived.
But what we are in position to do is build
the black community. Use what we've got. We've got nearly
(02:32:13):
two trillion dollars. We've got to learn how to use it.
But you can't use it effectively if you can get
control of the municipal apparatus that run the community that
you're in. For me, I don't care nothing about the
American military. I don't care nothing about the American government,
and I have not no matter what the season was,
(02:32:34):
I've criticized him, you know. But what I do care
about is that we are smart enough to watch other
people who are successful in using the apparatus of Americas,
using the military, using the police, using the fire department.
We still most black community in America are fire department
(02:32:57):
is still seventy five percent white. That makes no sense.
So how do we get access to those things? Most
of our postal services and most black communities is so
majority white others that makes no sense. What are we
talking about. We've got this money, we obviously working. We're
(02:33:23):
one of the most educated group in the country, especially
our women. And if we can spend two trillion dollars,
we've earned two trillion dollars and that ain't the corruption money.
So how are we using it? We don't know how
the system works. People say, well, I don't want to
be in a Democratic party or a republic comparty, then
(02:33:43):
start a third party or fourth party or fifth party,
and if you can't do that, you better use the
party that's in place, because if you don't take control
of the politics where you live, somebody else is going
to be in control of that. If you don't take
control of the real estate where you live, somebody else
has gone own that. You can complain all day about
how they won't give you the small business loan. They
(02:34:06):
shouldn't give you because you were their enemy. So why
are you giving them your two trillion dollars if they
won't give you the small business loan. It's a common
sense question, and it comes to people being organized, right.
Speaker 1 (02:34:23):
All I thought Small ale I thought, right there, we've
got to step aside for a few moments. Family, here,
some real talk going on right now. We talked about
people going to war and coming back. Dramo Pratt was
an example, learned what he did in Vietnam. It came
back to help us. What are your thoughts? Eight hundred
four or five zero seventy eight seventy six week to
Professor Small. We'll take calls next and Grant Rising family,
(02:34:47):
thanks are staying with us on this Thursday morning with
our guest, Professor James Small. Professor Small one about Grills,
one of our scholars, and you got a question for him,
reach out to us at eight hundred four or five
zero seventy eight to seventy six. It's got a lot
of folks want to talk to you, Professor's if you.
Speaker 6 (02:35:05):
And I agree, we know the dangers of dealing with
the demon and the demon rats that run this country,
especially when you're talking about the military. But we've got
to also be smart enough the way, what is the
value to us in building a black community? If we're
going to stay here, we've got to build a black community.
(02:35:26):
We can't be here complaining about who owned the gas station,
who owned the bodego, who owned all the stores that
we're spending our two trillion dollars with. And we can't
even determine whether the school our children going to is
seizing them to read and write. Okay, our behavior and
our expectation about identity as the community has got to change,
(02:35:47):
and a big part of that is coming from studying
history and knowing how we got from where we were
in Africa to where we are today. And for those
who said we were here before Africa, yes some of
us was, but we still need we're not where we
was lumbers, got here. We're in a situation now that
we need to get the hell out of it. So
let's figure out how to use this tool called America
(02:36:10):
to our advantages. That's all I'm saying. I'm not pro
American military. I've thought it all my life. I'm not
just a scholar, and I want people don't replaying on
that scholar stuff with me, because I was in every
aspect of the Black movement you can be in. Physically,
been into jail, beat up by the cops, thrown into
seventy seven precinc in Los Angeles, beat up and thrown
(02:36:32):
in the precinc in New York. I was in the streets.
I'm not just a scholar. I don't even like the term.
I'm talking from experience of being in the struggle, being
in the movement and fighting, raising a family, having children,
watching what my mother and father went through, learning from that,
and realizing that we must provide food, clothing self for safety,
(02:36:53):
then we must protect that. Once we provided, we must
run our community. We can't constantly leave all the major apparatus,
the police department, the fire department, the postal apartment, the
sanitation in the hands of our enemy and be feeling
good about that. We can't talk about we need education,
(02:37:13):
and our schools are full of some of the most
racist people in the world, or some of the most
misinformed black people in the world, not loving and not
teaching our children to be the optimal self. So we've
got to take responsibility if we want perfection, to create
the environment in which perfection can happen, and that means
we must take over and control that environment. If you
(02:37:36):
can do it without going in the military, if you
can do it without joining the police forces, I'm with you,
but I know you can't because I'm watching the other
people getting ahead of us by using these instruments. We
are watching the immigrant communities from all over the world
using these same instruments to step up and run our
communities while we're sitting around talking about why we're not
(02:37:58):
going to use it. And then back to Black youth.
No movement in the history of the world have been
successful without the youth, because the youth have always been
the majority of all movements in the history of the world.
But the youth lack of experience have always required having
elders as a part of the council and the leadership
(02:38:19):
on how that movement will go. So it isn't the
youth versus the elders or elders versus the youth. It
is the black family using all of its elements so
that they can be successful and build a successful future
on things economic, political, and culture.
Speaker 1 (02:38:37):
That set you twenty five at the top down, Henry's
calling for baltimon on a family. If you're on hold,
just plague your question short so we can get as
many people on to speak to Professor Small. Henry grand
Rising your question for Professor Small. I don't think Henry's
ready for us. Let's move on, Kevin. Let's go to
Eric online one ericson Forestville, Maryland. Grand Rising, Eric, your
(02:38:57):
question for Professor Small?
Speaker 16 (02:39:00):
Uh good gran Rising, Mster doctor Smalls and uh mister Nelson.
Uhcuse Yeah. Recently here in the last three weeks, we've
had several police shooting where police have I'm gonna call murder.
Uh individuals. One I know is black. I tried to
(02:39:23):
confirm whether the other one was black, and they used
the same scenario.
Speaker 6 (02:39:29):
Uh.
Speaker 16 (02:39:29):
He pulled us, he reached around in his waistband, he
pulled a gun. Uh, he lunched at need with for
a knife or a screwdriver and they underlive these people.
Yet you got a police chief and mad to go.
I mean, they seem like they naive to it. And
they used the same scenario time and time again. Uh
(02:39:50):
with this type of UH. And I suspect that another
murder would be coming by way the police. UH real soon,
I hope not. How would we get are these people
at the top of doctor small that's.
Speaker 6 (02:40:05):
Just my yeah, And I understand you surely, because you
know we've had we have black cops who have become
white racist because that's the culture of those who run
the police department, and we know that's to be true.
And we have black cops who we should fare more
than me fare some of the white cops. But unless
(02:40:26):
you put black cops in there that you don't have
to fear, nothing's going to change. You've got to take
control of the police department. There's no logic or rationale
why a community does not control their police department. And
if the persons we have in their face, being black
or whatever, is not doing their job, we should be
controlling the community political apparatus to move them immediately. Now
(02:40:51):
we've got to be responsible for controlling the economic and
politics and culture where we live, not leaving in the
hands of a few negroes. We just see themselves as
having a chorea and making money. But we as a
black community, got to control those things. That's how our
the people in Jewish community is that the Jewish compan
is not shooting Jewish children, Asian comps is not shooting
(02:41:12):
Asian children. Then let's ask the question why not, because
the community is in control of whoever is running those precincts.
We're not in control. We're leaving it to the negroes
that was trained by white folks, and we who say
we are the progressives and we are the militants, we're
(02:41:34):
sitting back having a conversation and the criticism because we're
scared to jump in that water and swim or sink,
meaning we're afraid to take responsibility to run the politics
of our community. If you don't like the Democratic Party,
then run the shoe two party. I don't care how
you do it. But if you don't get control of
the city council seats, and you don't get control of
(02:41:55):
the community boards, and you don't get control of the
school boards, and you don't get control of the educational
committee or the sanitation committee through these electoral process, then
somebody else is running your life and they're gonna shoot
you down in the streets. Something's gonna look like you
because they're and they're becoming a part of what that
thing that's the police department in Washington, DC is still
(02:42:16):
a white department, still a racist clan department. Philosophically and ideologically,
you know, let's build a community police department that understands
that they're there to protect that community and not to
be cops. Quote unquote. We have no excuses. I don't
care what nobody says. Don't even come to me with
(02:42:38):
that stuff. We have no excuses why we don't run
the police department in our community the way it should be.
We have no excuses why we're not dominating. If people
are going to prison, then we better be the corrections officers.
We have no excuses. Complaining isn't good enough. That's the
first step. Yes, you gotta complain, criticized, that's a step.
(02:43:01):
You've got to criticize, but you got to get to
the step where you transform that situation with your mind
and body and bring change by you being the change
that you're criticized and we don't seem to be able
to make that step in a large enough number. Some
of us are doing it, but in a large enough number,
(02:43:22):
and most of the cities in America, there's some cities
where black people are running their communities, but the overwhelming
majority of the black communities are being run mostly by
white persons and other persons of color who have no
respect for us and do not know our history because
they came over ahead just to get some food, clothing,
and shelter, and we're not providing the ones providing them
(02:43:44):
access to that, and so they are loyal to the
people who are providing them the access to the food, clothing,
and shelter. Now, what are we going to do about
our food, clothing and shelter? Complaining is the first step.
Now what is the next step? Transforming? How do we transform?
You've got to learn how the system work, and then
(02:44:04):
we got to run that system once we learn how
it works.
Speaker 1 (02:44:10):
All right, Well, I thought right there, Doc. Thirty minutes
after the top of the our family, Professor James Small
is our guest, and hopefully you are understanding what he's saying.
It's some real talk conversation taking place. Professor Small MARKA.
Mannheim says hello. He says that. He says that even
though the US Supreme Court Brown versus bort of Education
ruling may have occurred in nineteen fifty four and Charleston County,
(02:44:31):
South Carolina attended all black segregated public schools in the
early nineteen seventies, So someone who spent most of his
childhood in segregated South Carolina and segregated Virginia, now that
this nation is headed into Jim Crow two point zero,
it says, it saddens him to see so many people
who have been suffering what he terms the illusion of
inclusion who are now panicking. He says, where's are the
(02:44:52):
people who are not suffering the illusion of inclusion, but
who are often gaining success claimed to be a political
as an act, as if they did it all on
their own, repeating the ridiculous pull up yourself by a
bootstrap some mantra. So these folks are so ignorant they
do not even realize that that quote was originally meant
as sarcast and because it's physically impossible to pull up
yourself by a bootscrap. He goes on to say, now
(02:45:13):
we have such a successful people as Pharrell Williams spearing
bootstraps and meritocracy mantra in relation to elimination of DEIA programs,
It's not DEI, it's d EI A and Farrell never
mentions the A, just as most who discussed the A
refers to the handicap, and including the A would make
it more difficult to criticize DEIA programs because I wanted
(02:45:35):
to say, I suggest such people as a political Pharrell
Williams sit down and watch the films that Josephine Baker's
Story in nineteen ninety one introducing Dorothy Thanders in nineteen
ninety nine, which depict blacks who are often becoming successful
and suffering from the illusion of inclusion, found themselves slapped
back into reality, leading them to becoming very political.
Speaker 6 (02:45:55):
What say you, Well, that's a lot to me to
respond to. I mean, and you answered most of the
questions yourself, but at least at the most basic level
that DEI I don't even respect the concepts. See, when
we let other people create the narrative, you've already lost
the game. And DEI implies that people were given job
(02:46:15):
because of the color of their skin and not because
of the skills and talents they brought to the table.
And we know that that's a lie, right. We know
that if you came to that table and you didn't
have the skills and talents, you didn't get the job,
even when the worst enemy or even your friends was
behind the desk. So we've got to stop letting people
(02:46:35):
create the narrative and then put the definition. When they
throw Dea out there and got everybody thinking that Dea
means I hired you just because you were black, that's
the biggest lie in America. So don't play in the
line and then try to bring it to some kind
of sensible conclusion, because you're not going to be able
to do that because you've already accepted the lie. Segregation
(02:46:56):
never ended in America. There's no sign that segregation ever
ended in America. Integration never happened in America. What happened
in America with what was called integration was the dismantling
of the black economic apparatus across this country. Brown versus
(02:47:17):
the Board never changed education because the education achievements of
black folks dropped exponentially after Brown rather than rise. You know,
Brown was designed to destroy the black socialization process of
black children and was never designed to be an advancement.
(02:47:41):
If you don't believe me, study that the history started
with howl Cruz's broke plural but equal, you know, and
get a sense of what integration was really about. Brown
versus the Board came about when there was three other cases,
including another Brown versus the Board that was right there
in DC, and a case out of South Carolina, and
(02:48:02):
one out of Virginia with the young lady who was
asking for something very different. They were asking for the
proportional return of tax dollars to the black community so
that we could provide the quality of education for all
children that the white community was getting appropriate capital was doing.
And somebody said, we'd give all this money back to
the black community. It's like the Black School I forgot
(02:48:25):
it was in DC that was the highest performing high
school in America and they destroyed it. Well, that wasn't
the only high performing high school in America or high
performing elementary school in America. Look at the performance of
Black children prior to Brown versus the Border bed, and
look at the performance of Black children after Brown versus
the boarder bed. Look at the loss of black teachers
(02:48:46):
that we lost after Brown versus the board and black
principles that we lost, and black control of a school
board that we lost, and black control of a content
and value that we lost as a result of versus
the board that on let other people create a narrative
that have you buy in to that narrative, and the
narrative didn't do don't tell a story but doing what
(02:49:10):
it should have done. And I'm not ashamed to say
that we went for the okie dope and we've been
paying for it. You go to Tulsa, Oklahoma. It was
burned to the grounds of Greenwood, But go out to Tulsa.
I was out there multiple times before any presidents went
out there. I mounted the street until they had to
put me in the wheelchair when my knee went out
(02:49:30):
and I couldn't do it anymore. And Tulsa, Oklahoma rebuilds
itself better than it was before Greenwood was burned down.
And they'll tell you it got destroyed by integration. When
we thought shopping in the white community was a better
deal than shopping in the black community. We thought the
white economic apparatus was going to integrate with the black
(02:49:54):
economic apparatus, and it did just the opposite. Across the country.
So let's study history so we can get rid of
the mystery and see what the result of it was
on us. And America is as segregated today as it
was one hundred years ago. Go in any city in
(02:50:15):
America and you know exactly where the black community is.
You knew exactly where the white community and other communities are,
and it's segregated. We're the only ones that was talking
about integration because somebody else was leading our agenda, our
nice liberal friends, and the only thing that got integrated
was our dollar. With their businesses.
Speaker 1 (02:50:37):
All share to that hold that though right there, Professor
eight hundred four or five zero seventy eight seventy six
to speak to Professor James Swamp, we got to take
a short break of twenty three minutes away from the
top of y I'm gonna come back and take your
phone calls. You can reach us at eight hundred four
or five zero seventy eight to seventy six. Your calls

part of your morning with us and our guests. The
Professor James Small, just before we go back to the calle,
(02:50:59):
said that should you write it's smort as Friday. I
give you a chance to free mind and reach out
to us in our open for on Friday program and
promptly at six am Eastern time right here in Baltimore
on ten ten WLB and also in the DMV on
fourteen twenty WL. Professor Small, we've got a bunch of folks.
We've got questions for you. If you're on hold, please
make a question short, so we're gonna get as many
people speak to Professor Small as possible. Let's call a
(02:51:20):
Los Angeles on line three. Dorothy's reaching out to us.
Grand Rising, Dorothy a question for Professor Small.
Speaker 17 (02:51:27):
Grand Rising, you discussed the importance of going to college,
but I wanted to ensure that trade schools are also
critically important for African American males. Getting a trade in construction, drafting,
(02:51:53):
building technology, and all the other plumbing, all the other
trades is important and many you can make more money
in those fields and starting your own businesses with a trade.
So I just wanted to ensure that trade uptaining the
trade is also critical.
Speaker 6 (02:52:13):
Thank you, Arthur. I agree with you one hundred percent,
and there's nothing else to add to that is that
trade schools have always been a part of our community
when we were at a most prosperous, to the point
that they don't exist now. If I make a call
right now to any online company and says I have
(02:52:33):
a plumbing issue, I would watch every ethnic group in
the country show up at my door, except the African
American ethnic group. If I says I need plumbing and roofing,
everybody will come because it goes out there on the
network and everybody will start calling me to get the job.
And we have to also as a community. See, you
(02:52:54):
can't talk about trade schools and unless you're talking about
a community trade schools out there. But a lot of
this work is learned through apprenticeship. I'm a plumber. I
learned plumbing through eight years apprenticing under a mass plumber.
We still have, especially in the southern sector and in
the DC, we still have black plumbers, black electrician, black roofers,
(02:53:18):
black house painters. How do we get them to work
with creating apprenticeship program for black youth because we can't
wait for people to establish schools to teach trade. It's
coming back in America and people are advocating for it,
and you're seeing more of them develop, but you can
build even faster by those blacks who have those skills,
(02:53:41):
apprenticing black youth. But that comes from the whole community
being involved. Because most of our people so go to churches.
What is the church role in socializing in the mind
of the young people. We can't let them up the
hook because people don't want the criticism. You know, you
look in other community. There religious organization is tied to
(02:54:02):
youth mobilization, tied to youth socialization. In our community, we
are tired to selective youth socialization the minister's daughters, the
deacon's children, the school teacher's children, and the banker's children.
But the majority of people in the church don't get
access to these possibilities. And that's my critique of them.
(02:54:23):
You can't just be there to worship God, and God
don't tell you how to provide food, clothing, health and safety.
Every other community's religion do that. The Catholic Church runs schools,
and the majority of the people and much of this
country going to Catholic school is Latino Americans, and the
Catholic schools are some of the best in America, preparing
(02:54:43):
those children to compete. What are we doing? But of
our people still go to the churches. Are we taking
responsibility for the socialization of the youth? And so yes,
I really the sist one hundred percent. That's where the
money is. The people who come to be the plumber.
You need a plumber every day, you need any lectures,
(02:55:05):
and every day you need somebody to pay your house
every day. But how do we get back into those
trades because now everybody got to be licensed and so
forth and so on. So the few of us who
our license need to start opening apprenticeship program for the
black youth and then fighting to struggle to get trade
schools where in our city's where we live. That comes
(02:55:27):
back to the basics I was talking about. If you
don't get control of your city council and you don't
get control of your school board, you're not going to
get trade schools and you're not going to control the
city council school whether if you don't register the vote,
and you're not going to be able to do it
if you don't take that vote and use it wisely.
Speaker 1 (02:55:47):
Thank you for connecting the US fourteen away from the
top of our Professor small Sister Pereier is calling from Baltimore,
has a question for issues online four grand rising, Sister Praie,
you're a question for a Professor.
Speaker 18 (02:55:58):
Small's good might want to mister Nelson, audience and Professor Small,
I happen to notice when yesterday's UH program I listened
to a more than say that there was some young
people that didn't disturb and act this past Monday morning,
and the.
Speaker 12 (02:56:15):
School paid no attention to them. And after school, this
lady and her son were ganged up once and she's
pregnant and her son was protecting her. And you have
people that watched it of all ethnic backgrounds and classes,
and they have a gofunding paid set up with this
lady who who was harassed on her way home with
the school, and what should be done with parents who
(02:56:37):
need to take accountability and people who need a lot
of teaching across the board when it comes to their children,
and how to treat other people. What should be done
about this?
Speaker 18 (02:56:45):
Cause these were elementary school.
Speaker 6 (02:56:47):
That happens in every school and ever b ethnic group
everywhere in the world. And you're solved by organizing your community.
You solved by having a common race, culture, and consciousness.
You can't and be a bunch of strangers that hate
each other and operating as individuals based on ego and
arrogance and attachments and other kinds of way of communicating
(02:57:12):
that person. That child feels no kinship to the other child,
and feel no kinship to that adult. And we are
the ones that have allowed this kind of environment to
exist in our community, both the victims and the victimizet
of victims of the lack of culture, the lack of
an ethical moral base that comes from having culture that
(02:57:33):
binds people together. People think things like history is mundane.
Everybody that is successful use history as the foundation of base.
Everybody who's successful as an ethnic group must be united.
Everybody that you find that's united have some sort of
cultural glue that keeps them united. You can't have a
(02:57:55):
bunch of individual using fragments of other people's culture and
wonder why they hate one another. It's because they hate themselves.
It comes back to the simple basics that we keep
running away from. We never solved the problem. We never
taught black studies to our community. A handful of radicals
try to get it into college and in the schools,
(02:58:17):
and our people, the very people we brought it to help,
fought against it. So Now that's how they a black
studies program in a school. But basic American history is
white studies and it works. Jewish synagogue teaches Jewish studies
and it works as Black churches teach Black studies. Know, Now,
(02:58:39):
how do you socialize your children? Socialization means how they
get their values, their interests, and their principles. Whose job
is it to socialize the youth of any community, the
parents and the spiritual institutions that is supposed to give
the ethical moral guidance to that community. How they want
(02:59:00):
to be off of the hook and leave it to
the one injured, broken family that will commit the crime.
Why are they're injured and broken in the first place?
If you have a community. I feel sorry for those
who are victimized by the other victims, but they're all
victims because we are failing to organize as an African people,
(02:59:23):
you know, And every time it looks like we're going
to get something going as an African, become under attacked
by people look like us. Now we've got people attacking
pan Aficanism. Pan Africanism simply means a unified African people.
Why would you want to attack that? That is so foolish,
But yet people are trying to take the term and
(02:59:45):
make it something other than what I means. Simply means
black people are unified about things black, black political interests,
black economic interests. The Latino community is not trying to
organize a black community. The Asian community is not trying
to organize the Black community. The Jewish community is not
trying to organize the Black community. The Irish and the
Italian community, they're not trying to organize the Black community.
(03:00:07):
They're organizing their community around the best interests of their
children because that's the future of the community. And we
need to learn how to do the same thing. If
I'm playing basketball, I'm going to watch the team that's
winning and learn some strategies and techniques from that winning
team so that my team can win also. And that's
(03:00:29):
what we need to get busy doing. And it's basic
and fundamental and having change over centuries. Food, clothing, shelter
to safety and security. Everybody got out of bed this
morning either knowing or trying to find out where they
were going to get food, clothing, help, to safety and
security for that day. That's the motivator. Then that requires
(03:00:51):
having money, capital and getting money and capital requires having skills,
education and getting education is being goodtrol of the politics
where you live, so the apparatus that allows for you
to access that education, so you can get that capital,
so you can provide the housing, the clothing, and the
shelter field people, fundamental people, Stop making excuses while you're
(03:01:16):
not voting. Stop making if you if you think the
voting don't work, then you can't complain when there's no
results because you didn't involve yourself.
Speaker 11 (03:01:27):
Let's use that we have.
Speaker 1 (03:01:32):
Professor small Rick is calling from Laurel and MERYLDI is
online to ground rising Rick. Question. Can you make it
a quick your question for a Professor.
Speaker 13 (03:01:39):
Small Yes, Air morning time, professor pychological yes, sir, the
psychological effect to prison to war. You got an option.
You don't go to war, you go to prison. So
now no, no, no, no, no, I'm just trying to
say something real quick. If you go to if you
go to print, if you go to war, you're going
(03:02:00):
somewhere that you don't want to be. Okay, it's a
possibility that you may not make it out of war.
To embarrass people that's in prison to say you should
be home with your wife teaching you why. But it's
a possibility if you'd say and learn something from being
in war, you might get killed. So it's a psychological
thing to be somewhere when you don't want to be
(03:02:21):
period prison or war. You understand what I'm trying to say.
Speaker 6 (03:02:24):
I agree with you, But they, i'll say, embarrassing them
because we do have responsibility, So we're not we're not
deathlining done to the point we don't have responsibility. We
make decisions, and we have to make decisions of how
we make decisions.
Speaker 13 (03:02:40):
Yes, sir, you're gonna have to be made the right decision.
Speaker 6 (03:02:44):
Yes, there and some of us don't make the right one.
I've gotten it. I've committed coming to acts that I
didn't get caught for. If I'd gotten caught for a
few burglaries I pulled, I'd probably still be in the penitentiary.
But I didn't get caught. That was just the luck
of the draw. But the and I learned how to
make better decisions, and you can't just learn on your own.
(03:03:06):
I was lucky enough to be a part of a
community where people were trying to make better decisions, where
there were people from the five percent nations, where there
were people from the nation of this land, and even
from my church. You know, there were people in my
family who had been into the world and came back
and taught us. It's about struggling to organize yourself, to
(03:03:27):
unify yourself. It is in prison or most black people
never go to prison, okay, And we seem to think,
we seem we can only tell our stories about those
who were on drugs or those who got killed, or
those who went to prison. That's the minority of our community.
But not one of them should be in that situation
because that minority which is injured in that way, come
(03:03:49):
back home and help to injure others who never would
have gotten injured if that person hadn't gotten injured. So
when I told folks in prison, I want them to
get out, I want to motive be they asked to
lead that prison and go home and never come back,
you know, because you got there by behavior sometimes and
we know we've been trapped and tricked and framed and
(03:04:12):
all of those things as well. But don't posit. That
is why not go in to military, Because if you
got an if you've got an alternative, just then don't
go into military. But don't tell me you shouldn't do this.
I'm saying that is a pathway to take in control
of your community when you get back home, because of
the skills and the experience learned. And we see it
(03:04:33):
being done by the Latino communities using it like a
stair step. And yes there's wars, and you're going to
get killed in the wars, you know, like I said,
and the people who don't have to fight, but you
can resist. I resisted the war and I took the
court martial and others did too. But everybody isn't going
to do that. And I'm just saying, what are the
(03:04:54):
tools you have to get some freedom. Don't tell me
why you're not gonna get freedom. Don't tell me why
you're gonna stay stuck in the mud. Tell me what
tools around you that you can use. Maybe that military
reason a good tool, then find another tool. But we
can't stay here and say we spending two trillion dollars
(03:05:15):
and we're committing the crimes we're committing against our community.
I know some people are angry with Eric Adams, and
I would shy he didn't bring it back either, stop
in frisk, But those same people weren't doing nothing about
they amount of black youth and black women being shot
down in the street by young black men who didn't
even know how they use a damn gun that they
had in their hands. So you got to have one
(03:05:36):
or the other now, or you got to find another
way to do this. But don't tell me that you
know that what I'm offering is so bad when you're
sitting by watching the body count go up, right, you know?
Speaker 1 (03:05:51):
So we got to stand there. We're just about flat
out of time. She got a bunch of folks want
to talk to you, so we we got to get
you back because I know you're going to Africa before
the end of Yeah.
Speaker 6 (03:06:00):
Correct, that's right, and everybody should give me a ring
and jump on board. I'm going to Africa to do
all the historical cultural things, but I'm going there to
party and hang out with a bunch of black folks
from all over the world that's coming to Ghana. That's
become the place to come and meet each other and
know each other and begin to start investing in African countries,
in African industry and the wealthiest confident in the world.
(03:06:24):
We need to learn those people to learn their culture,
learn how to invest, learn how to buy real estate,
learn how to open businesses. I think something like ninety
six thousand Americans have applied in the last year for
jobs in Africa, and seventy percent of them with white folks.
Speaker 4 (03:06:43):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (03:06:45):
We got to wake up, yeah, professor Small, So so
how can folk treat you real quickly? We're going to
try and get you back.
Speaker 6 (03:06:52):
The quickest thing is telephone number nine one four nine
six zero two six nine three nine six zero two
six nine three. Do it again nine one four nine
six zero two six nine three, because we're gonna have
a good time. But we're gonna do business too, and
we're gonna learn about the educational things in the confidence.
(03:07:15):
We're gonna bond with our brothers and sisters who was
left behind to hind to that form of slavery and colonialism,
when we were brought to this form of slavery and colonialism.
And we're gonna get to know each other and heal
each other and bond with each other and build the
black nation we want to see.
Speaker 1 (03:07:32):
All right, and thank you for classes. Dismissed for the day,
Stay strong, stealthy, what's you tomorrow morning, six o'clock Right
