Speaker 1 (02:18):
He's Poky's prest She's real. Good question.
Speaker 5 (02:20):
No, he's rolling Barton.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Mate. Yes. Thirteen bells told well the ten people slaughtered
(03:27):
and three wounded in a racist attack that took place
at the grocery store in Buffalo, New York. A supermarket
in Buffalo, New York. Hundreds of people, including local, state,
and national officials, gathered in the same parking lot outside
the Tops Friendly Market where a gunman, a white gunman,
opened fire on May fourteenth, twenty twenty two, New York
(03:47):
Traney General Titter James issuing a gun accessory manufacturer for
selling a lock that can be easily removed to attach
high capacity magazines, which are legal in the state. The
white gunmen who massacreten black shoppers and workers in that supermarket.
Of course, he carried it out with a semi automatic
rifle he purchased legally, but then modified so he coldloaded
(04:10):
with illegal high capacity ammunition magazines. He pled guilty to
murder and other charters and was sent us to life
without parole in February. A federal case against him is tending.
Joining me right now is the Mayor of Buffalo, Byron Brown.
Mayor Brown, glad to have you on the show. It
was quite tragic what took place a year ago. How
(04:33):
has your city dealt with this, especially in a nation
where mass shootings just continue to happen on a regular basis.
Speaker 7 (04:42):
This was very painful for our city, the darkest day
in the history of the city of Buffalo.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
The community came together.
Speaker 7 (04:53):
People held each other up, people supported each other, supported
each other in amazing ways. People are in various stages
of healing. We had a five fourteen Remembrance Weekend activities
on May twelfth, thirteenth, and fourteenth to reflect and remember
(05:18):
those precious lives that were taken on May fourteenth, twenty
twenty two, and to steal ourselves to be in the
fight to push for things like this not to be
able to happen again. So it was a tough weekend.
(05:39):
It was an emotional weekend, but as always, our community
stood together and supported each.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Other when these things happen again. They're happening with such
regularity in this country. Essentially we just hot from city
to city to city, and I think so many people
have frankly just gotten immune. A shooting happens and we
go up two or three, four five. It's as if,
(06:07):
you know, it doesn't even capture our attention unless it's
eighteen or more people.
Speaker 7 (06:12):
You're one hundred percent right. We're in day one hundred
and thirty seven. In twenty twenty three, there have already
been over two hundred mass shootings in the United States
of America, and since the mass shooting in Buffalo last
year on May fourteenth, twenty twenty two, there have been
(06:36):
more than six hundred and fifty mass shootings. This problem
isn't getting better. It's getting worse, and we can't be
immune to it. We can't be desensitized to it. Innocent
people are being killed in urban, suburban, and rural communities
all across this country.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
When you hear elected officials, largely Republican, offer their thoughts
and prayers and then do nothing. When you watch in
Tennessee whether it's a mass shooting, and what do they do.
They shut down three lawmakers, two African American, and then
pass a bill shielding the gun manufacturer from being sued.
(07:21):
When you see Texas where the governor Republican government decries
mental illness but then cuts two hundred eleven million dollars
out of the budget for mental health, what does that say.
Speaker 7 (07:34):
These Republican elected officials, many of them, are playing with
American lives. They are putting the interests and the profits
of gun manufacturers over the safety and security of the
American people. It's time that Americans all across the country
(07:56):
stand up, speak up, and vote some of these people
out of office. That is the only way that we
are going to produce a change in this country. To
combat white supremacy. To have sensible gun reform, we need
to ban assault weapons and terrain in social media so
(08:17):
that hateful messages and radicalization of people cannot be done
through social media.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
We're going to talk about this a little bit later.
On Saturday, President Biden spoke at Howard University. He talked
about white supremacy and racism in this country, and there
was a Fox News panel that took exception to what
he had to say. When you see folks on Fox
News and others in the conservative media just last and
(08:48):
blame everything as woke, they act as if this is
a game and that white supremacy and racism is not
an issue still left in this country. The shooter who
took out those teams black folks in Buffalo, he was
a racist. He was in a flight out racist. The
guy in Allen, Texas, he was a racist. Dylan Rufe
was a white supremacist. The FBI has made it clear
(09:11):
that white domestic terrorism still is the most important issue
here on the homeland.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
President Biden was absolutely right.
Speaker 7 (09:25):
White supremacy, unfortunately, is on the rise.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
It is deadly.
Speaker 7 (09:32):
We saw how deadly it can be in my city, Buffalo,
New York. We saw how deadly it could be in Texas.
We've seen the death and destruction that white supremacy can
cause in many places across the country. We have to
take this seriously. It is I believe and the President
(09:56):
is right. It is one of the greatest domestic terrorism
threats to the American people, and we have to crack
down on it. One of the families in Buffalo that
lost their mother and grandmother, the Whitfield family, they have
made white supremacy and cracking down on white supremacy their mission,
(10:23):
and I think more people across the country should make
it their mission to fight white supremacy and put an
end to that danger, that cancer that is growing in
our country.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
So last question for you, Obviously it has been one
heck of a year. What is do being provided for
those involved or just residents in the Buffalo who's to
a traumatize what happened last year?
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Governor Hockel has.
Speaker 7 (11:00):
Announced millions of dollars that will flow for homeowners for
home repair, to small businesses for business investment, money that
will flow to the community.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
For mental health care.
Speaker 7 (11:17):
Certainly, this was a very traumatizing event, not just for
the families of those whose lives are taken. The three
individuals who were shot and wounded, and many survivors who
were in the store who are outside the store. There
(11:38):
are people that have not been able to go back
to work, children who are doing poorly in school. We
have been appealing not only to the state government and
Governor Hochel is providing significant resources, but the federal government
to provide more resources. A president came here. He called
(12:00):
this an act of domestic terrorism, called out the white
supremacy and resources are needed to help people who have
been harmed and deeply affected by this mass shooting in
the city of Buffalo.
Speaker 1 (12:18):

Speaker 1 (13:50):
To see the rise where I call white minority resistance.
We have seen white folks in this country who simply
cannot tolerate black folks voting.
Speaker 10 (13:59):
Quote we're seeing is the inevitable result of violent denial.
Speaker 11 (14:04):
This is part of American history.
Speaker 12 (14:06):
Every time that people of color have made progress, whether
real or symbolic, there has been.
Speaker 13 (14:11):
But Carol Anderson at every university calls white rage as
a backlash.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Is the wife of the Proud Boys and the Boogaaloo
Boys America. There's going to be more of this at
the PROD.
Speaker 14 (14:22):
This country just getting increasingly racist and its behaviors and
its attitudes because of the fear of white people.

Is between Black Star Network and Black owned media and
something like CNN.
Speaker 15 (15:11):
You can't be black owned media.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
And be scared.
Speaker 6 (15:14):
It's time to be smart. Ring your eyeballs home, you dig.

So?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
What's up? This is your boy?
Speaker 6 (15:26):
Earthquake?
Speaker 16 (15:26):
H I am Chayley Rose and you're watching Roland Martin unfiltered?
Speaker 1 (15:46):
All right, folks, Tanner present our pound doctor Julian Malvox.
She's the dean of the College of Ethnic Studies. California University,
Los Angeles. She's out of La DOT. I'm a Congo
dibinga senior propa soio lecturer, School of International Service, American University.
He's here from joining us from DC. And doctor Savish Hill,
Adjunct Assistant Professor African American Studies, University of Texas at Arlington,
(16:10):
joining us from Dallas. Glad to have all three of
y'all here on the show. Let's start with you, Julian,
and that is this here. I mean, so many people
were shocked and stunned last week, but not black folks.
We've had to deal with the terror in America since
(16:30):
the moment people of African descent were first brought here.
When you look at what took place during Jim Crow,
the lynchings and the race riots and the murders, black
folks just trying to swim, Black folks just trying to live.
So this terror that is constantly visited upon us, we
have had to deal with it from the beginning.
Speaker 17 (16:51):
Well precisely, and people do not People want to minimize
the impact that that terror has on individuals. Go Richard
Wright wrote that when there's a lynching in Mississippi, he
could feel it in Chicago, and I think when we
look at Buffalo as an example, we look all the
rest of this stuff.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
Our people are traumatized.
Speaker 17 (17:13):
I have the privilege of visiting Buffalo about a month
after that shooting with some of the Black Lives Matter
LA team, and the.
Speaker 5 (17:21):
Women were there were a couple of women who were in.
Speaker 17 (17:23):
The store and they were still crying, still shouting, crying
out one woman, she and her daughter both worked at
that tops market and she was frantically looking for her daughter.
Speaker 5 (17:34):
They both found each other, but she was still shaken.
But we've been shaken.
Speaker 17 (17:38):
We've been shaken when we're lynched for nothing, shaken when
we attempt to do economic empowerment and find like in Elaine, Arkansas,
two hundred black people lynch because they dared try to organize,
because they dared try to get their little sharecoping pennies up,
just a few more pities. And so we understand this,
which is why we see the humidity in some black people.
(18:02):
We see the uncle toomism and others, frankly, those who
would acquiesce to white supremacy. And I wish we could
find another word rolling besides white supremacy, because they're not supreme,
their inferior. But you know, when we say white supremacy,
somehow I think we reinforce some of that. I want
to find another word, white paranoia, white ignorance. But the
(18:25):
fact is that we have, as you say, we have
been in this situation being terrorized, brutalized, marginalized since we
stepped foot on these shores.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
You know, I'm a congo again, Dylan Ruth this shooting
and others. When you look at these people who act
as if this is no big deal, you're making too
much of this. I'm going to get at this in
a moment. Well, I got a few things to say
to the idiots at Fox News, including Harris Faulkner, a
(18:58):
black woman, you know, just mocking this notion of white supremacy,
white nationalism, and the hatred that still exists in this
country for black people.
Speaker 18 (19:10):
You know, it's said, not only are they mocking and
disrespecting us, but it's also been once again attached to
these cultural wars where we see all of these issues
now that are happening, there is some type of Republican
candidate or a governor or a congress person.
Speaker 11 (19:26):
That's going to latch onto it.
Speaker 18 (19:27):
We see the case with Governor Abbott in Texas, with
Daniel Perry, who killed a Black Lives Matter supporter getting
all of the support. Now, clearly we don't know where
Daniel Penny lines the person who killed Jordan Neely, but
we know that his family has connections to the Trump
Camp organization and DeSantis and has raised over two million
dollars as well, and during for his defense. During this
(19:49):
whole time when everybody who's villainizing Neely, you know, Penny
has had time to scrape his social media platforms and
all of these things. My point is that whenever these
situations happened, whether we're talking about a deal in the
roof above, the Buffalo shooter, and the light, the people
in power are also gravitating towards this to help build
their case and build their cause as it relates to
(20:11):
their identity politics. And they're taking this right in the
twenty twenty four and they're talking about this isn't serious.
Speaker 11 (20:17):
I'm right here in DC.
Speaker 18 (20:18):
The Patriot Front just had hundreds of white extremists. I'll
say that, doctor Malbau, why extremists marching right.
Speaker 11 (20:24):
Here in the Capitol.
Speaker 18 (20:26):
So they are only growing, They're only more embolden, and
the only way we're going to continue to win is
to continue to fight them in every way, shape or form.
And we're getting to this later with Fokner and Fox.
But like you said, Roland, we can't let them minimize that.
We got to call them out in every single way politically, economically,
and socially because if not, they're going to keep explaining
this stuff away while at the same time, hate crimes are.
Speaker 11 (20:48):
Going to continue to rise, and our community is.
Speaker 18 (20:50):
Continually number one for hate crimes targets in this country.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Pam Love, this is video here of those racists marching
in DC this weekend, and the real is they are proud,
they're vocal. And what we have to understand that these racists,
they are becoming even more embolden because they're patron Saint
Donald Trump says, we're good.
Speaker 14 (21:17):
And they still have to hide their faces. So that
tells you a lot, because which are scared of if
you're so bold and you're so so cause to bring
show your face.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
And apparently they don't know about.
Speaker 14 (21:30):
The history because they came here to America on a ship.
They slaughtered the native people who were here, and they
believe that they are the true to Americas. And again,
you know, we have to really pay attention because this
is something that is growing. It is growing, and we
have to be prepared for it anyway that we need to,
(21:51):
you know what I'm saying. But again, these are cowards.
Look at them, their face there covered. If they're so
bold and so bad, why don't they show who they are?
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Well, you're absolutely right, And look, I mean bon line
is you know these folks are going to continue to
do what they do. And again they're being embolden by
their supporters in the Republican Party Julian and I mean
that's just a fact.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
Well embolden and basically rallying around like they're the money
that Jordan's the man who killed Jordan Neely. I'm not
even gonna call his name. I'm not even gonna call
his name. But the murderer who.
Speaker 17 (22:30):
Killed Jordan Eely, he's got go fund me pages, the
millions being raised for him to assist him with his
legal defense. And so basically, they are trying to rewrite
a narrative that we reject.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
We have to continue to reject the narrative. And I
like what sister said about them covering then faces this
is a throw back to the Ku Klux Klan and
the pillow cases on their head. I guess they were
pillar cases.
Speaker 17 (22:54):
I don't know, But in any case, we see what
we see is our country in crisis of the n'sual
urban leagues. State of Black America this year really lifted
up the whole threat in terms of white extremists terrorism,
and we see it time and time again in cities
all over the country. And then you see these broken
black people broken. We should be empowered. That pain should
(23:17):
turn into power. It should make us want to fight
more and harder, because if we don't fight, we are
going backwards. Twenty two states now laws against teaching race theory.
Speaker 5 (23:29):
I don't know how many.
Speaker 17 (23:29):
States have eroded the Voting Rights Act and more they
are attempting to go back to the eighteenth century, frankly,
and we aren't going back, yep.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
That is how they're operating in Look, we're going to
continue to do what we do, and so we're going
to break this thing down further. I'm going to talk
about again the folks at Fox News who somehow believe
that President Biden, how dare he, how dare he speak
about white supremacy at Howard University. Uh wait until we
(24:01):
share with you some of the nose. And these people
said clearly, these people are not the brightest bulbs in
dark rooms. They probably haven't read any American history. What
time breaking down for you? You're watching rollingd Mark unfiltered
on the Black Sun Network.
Speaker 19 (24:18):
It's pivotal, pivotal time.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
And Kevin Kevin Hart telling me that he's like, man,
what you doing? Man? You gotta stay on stage?
Speaker 20 (24:28):
And I was like, I'm you know, I'm.
Speaker 19 (24:31):
I'm thinking there, I'm and he was absolutely right.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
But what showed Jill do this was one on one
during that time, and that was so you don't one
on one going great, you're making money.
Speaker 19 (24:43):
You're like, I'm like, I don't need to I don't
need need from you know, Wednesday, Thursday to Sunday.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
You know, I just I don't want to do that.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
You know.
Speaker 19 (24:50):
It's just like I'm gonna stay here or I didn't
want to finished work Friday, fly out, go do a
gig Saturday Sunday.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
I just think I don't have to do that.
Speaker 19 (24:58):
And I lost a little bit of that hunger that
I had to New York. I would hit all the clubs,
run around. You know, sometimes it's me in Chappelle or
be in this one or that one, go to the
comedy cellar one in the morning, and I.
Speaker 11 (25:12):
Mean that was our life.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
We loved it.
Speaker 6 (25:15):
You know.
Speaker 19 (25:15):
You get two shows in Manhattan, go to Brooklyn.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Leave Brooklyn, go to Queen's, go to Jersey, and I
kind of.
Speaker 19 (25:21):
Just I got complacent.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
But I was like, I got this money, I'm good.
Speaker 5 (25:25):
I need to go.
Speaker 19 (25:26):
I don't need to go chase that because that money
wasn't at the same level that I was making. But
what I was missing was that training.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Yes, was that was that And it wasn't the money.
Speaker 19 (25:36):
It was the money, you know, it was that. That's
what I needed.
Speaker 21 (25:52):
Next, right here on the frequency, the woman they called

Hey, I'm Donnie Simpson. What's up? I'm Lance Gross and
you're watching Roland Martin Unfiltered to get it, folks. On
(26:57):
a Saturday of the Capitaljuann Arena here in Washington, d D.
President Joe Biden spoke at the commencedvent for Howard University.
I was in attendance there. My niece Faith Marshall. She
graduated and so was there shooting video and photos for her,
and it was pretty cool. A number of people were
(27:18):
there in attendance there. First of all, President Biden was
honored with an honorary degree along with Congress and Jim
Clyburn and a number of others. Actor Wendell Pearce had
a cousin who was there. Actor Roger Guinevere Smith had
a nephew was graduating as well, and so a number
of people who were in the house. During his speech,
(27:38):
President Biden talked about what his administration has accomplished that
impacts African Americas. But he also talked about the threat
in America when it comes to racism and white supremacy.
Speaker 4 (27:51):
You know, good, American history has not always been a
fairy tale.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
From the start.
Speaker 4 (27:58):
It's been a constant push and pull for more than
two hundred and forty years between the best of us,
the American idea that we're all faded ecal, the worst
of us, the harsh reality racism has long torn us apart.
Speaker 6 (28:16):
It's a battle.
Speaker 23 (28:17):
It's never really over all the best days and all
of us have.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
The guts and the hearts.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Just stand up for the best in us to choose
all over hate.
Speaker 4 (28:33):
You whoever tissues, is progress over retreat. To stand up
against the poison white supremacist. I did in my inaug
to address to a single out as the most dangerous
terrorists got to our homeland is white supremacy. I'm not
(28:58):
saying this because I'm as a black.
Speaker 23 (29:02):
I say, wherever I go, stand up for truth over
live lies, goll for power and profit. Now going to
Sault to subvert our election, suppress our right to vote.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Great Some students were protested. About fifteen students protested. About
fifty student protested Biden's speech. Some of them were carrying
signs saying Biden Harris do not care about black people.
Also caring signs they said a young black man was
lynched speaking of Jordan Neely. That's Channing Hill. I remember
(29:40):
she never seen her. She of course, was one of
the leaders of the protest at Howard when it came
to the dormitories there, And so those students stood up,
turned their back to the president against some hell signs.
Others were simply on their phones again as that sign
of protests. Now, so Biden comes there and he speaks
(30:03):
about this whole issue. Folks at Outnumbered on Fox News, Oh,
they were not happy at all that Biden had dared
talk about white supremacy, and so they literally had one
of the dumbest, I mean, one of the dumbest conversations
(30:26):
you have ever heard. And so I just want y'all
know most a lot of times I just ignore what
he's stuck on stupid people. But I just really had
to deconstruct the sheer stupidity that I saw and heard today.
Roll it.
Speaker 20 (30:47):
One of the problems with us is that he thinks
because he is in front of a black audience that
he can just say whatever he wants. I don't ever
remember him saying with such specificity any of this in.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Front of a audience.
Speaker 5 (31:00):
But maybe we missed that day.
Speaker 20 (31:02):
Maybe it happened in Delaware on one of those mystery
weekend getaways.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Stop stop, Harris. As a black woman, you should be
ashamed of yourself. You absolutely should be ashamed of yourself
first and foremost. It's abundantly clear you've never actually followed
Joe Biden when it comes to speaking. That's just one two.
(31:29):
I thought you were so called news anchor, and so
you're trying to throw some shade about his mystery weekends
of Delaware. No, it's called actually going home for the weekend.
What's also silly with your comments? Harris? As one of
the few black people on air there at Fox News,
(31:49):
you didn't listen to the speech knowing that you read it,
because if you actually did, and again I was there,
you would have realized that Biden, oh, talked about student
loan debt, talked about police reform and accountability and a
host of other issues. But see you or oh, what
(32:14):
he thinks he can say whatever he wants. Well, actually, Harris,
when you're the president. You typically can say whatever you want. Now,
I've actually given twenty commencement addresses. I don't know about you,
I don't know who's everybody you to speak at a
commencement and guess what in all twenty I kind of say,
(32:35):
what the hell I wanted to say? Yep, sure did so.
It's called commencement speaker prerogatives. So you may know nothing
about that, Harris, So keep rolling it.
Speaker 20 (32:46):
But this is really important because there is domestic terrorism
in our country, and you can look at the facts
and see where that's coming from. You can also say
that two things are true. Things can be a problem
without being the.
Speaker 3 (32:58):
Number one or the only.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
But right now, our sovereignty is at state.
Speaker 20 (33:03):
Right now, people are still fighting high prices of things
like we're in the midst of history making for all
the wrong reasons.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
The Blacks and that audience care about that.
Speaker 5 (33:13):
You don't think that we care.
Speaker 20 (33:14):
About the economy, of course, I mean, come on, you
don't have to victimize us to reach us.
Speaker 5 (33:19):
But that's what he does.
Speaker 20 (33:20):
No one's putting us in chains.
Speaker 5 (33:22):
That's a great point. And LOOKAI could.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
Comeback, comeback, comeback. That was just stupid, Harris. I mean
that was just some dumb shit you just said right there. Okay,
the director of the FBI, Harris has gone before Congress
(33:45):
on numerous occasions and actually saying the number one national
security threat is white domestic terrorism.
Speaker 6 (33:57):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
I noticed how you didn't want to say white.
Speaker 5 (34:01):
Hmm.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
I noticed, Harris, how you just conveniently didn't say white.
I noticed that. I noticed how, uh, you were just
so so so bothered by the speech. And then and
then you were so so bothered by the speech, Harris, that,
(34:30):
baul there's so many other issues. See, I love it
when when you're president, who's talking about white supremacy and
you as a black woman, though, but why you got
to bring that up? Why white? White? Why can't you
talk about some other stuff?
Speaker 3 (34:49):
No?
Speaker 1 (34:49):
No, no no, why don't we stick to the white
supremacy part?
Speaker 24 (34:56):
See that's why for some folk it becomes an embarrassment,
if you will, for black people to have you sitting
up that Harris just saying.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Just dumb shit, just dumb, just dumb. And then you
also show your sheer ignorance, Harris Faulkner, when you clearly
never read it, you clearly never listen to it in
(35:38):
the speech the speech that I heard because I was
actually there. He actually talked about a number of issues.
In fact, do you see my eyepad? Okay, let's see
(36:00):
if I'm not sure why it's not showing up, let
me try to cause. See again, folk, we only showed
you a buck twenty seven of the speech. What we
didn't show you was all of it. Now we live
streamed it. We live streamed it on the Blackstar Networks.
(36:20):
If you actually want to hear the full speech, you
can actually hear the full speech. And we did that
because again, when you're a credible news organization like we are,
and Harris Folks Fox News, they're not credible at all.
They don't bother to do those things. And so in
his particular speech, Biden talked about Mother's Day things they
(36:45):
went through. We mentioned South Carolina State, He mentioned the
other honorees and talked about them, and then also, as
you go through this, shout out Divine nine. In the speech,
he talked about a number of things, including the first
black vice president, the first black female vice president, Howard
you graduate showed them some love as well. In the
(37:08):
same speech, he talked about the first African American woman
you know who on Supreme Court. Yep, yep, yep. Talked
about that, talked about the issue of violence in the country,
go to my iPad, come on. So he talked about
look at this here right here, y'all. He talked about
Charlotte and the crazy neo Nazis and a white supremacist. Yep.
(37:31):
See you talk about all that sort of stuff like that,
fighting against those forces. In the same speech, y'all, he
talked about the history of this country and what we
must deal with the history in this country, dealing with lies.
Talked about record turnout, voter suppression, political violence, mentioned the
bomb threats that were against HBCUs all across the country,
(37:55):
talked about putting democracy on the ballot, talked about oh, sorry,
Harris said, didn't Harris say, well, there are other things
that are so crucial that black people care about. He
didn't mention those things. Hmmm. He sat here and said
for affordable healthcare, in housing, the right to raise your family,
(38:16):
retire with dignity, stand up against gun violence in this country,
stand up against books being banned in black history. Erase,
I kind of see that kind of stuff in the speech.
He also like, I'm just scrolling right here, as he
walks through it, talks about the sinister forces, talked about
what they have to do as a graduating class, and
(38:40):
what he said, with your voices and votes, I was
able to feel my commitment to put the first black
oneman on the Supreme Court of the United States. Hunh
talked about the judicial nominees being more diverse than ever,
including African Americans. He said, right here, he said, because
of you, you turned out, you spoke up, you knew,
you showed up. The votes counted. Oh, that's kind of
(39:02):
what I see. Oh, right here, you feel the promise
and the peril of climate change. Because of you, we're
making the biggest investment ever in the history of the
world in climate change. He talked about I'm keeping my
promise that no one should be in jail merely because
of using or possessing marijuana. That got lots of applause
from the audience.
Speaker 5 (39:20):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (39:20):
He talked right here about student loan debt and the
impacts on folks as well. He talked about how Republicans
are dead set against a student loan debt. He sit
here and talks about to reduce your debt service payments
when you graduate, laying the whole thing out, sing Republicans
are fighting those things at will. Talked about the assault
weapons van, talked about police reform and public safety. Talked
(39:44):
about these very issues. Hmm hmm. Right here, George Floyd,
the bill banning chocol's restricting no knock warrants es happens
in a database. H it's amazing.
Speaker 25 (40:01):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (40:01):
Talks about the investment to HBCUs for doctors and lawyers
and judges. Yet all that right here in the speech
six billion dollars in counting to HBCUs, including to create
new research and development labs and prepare students for jobs
of the future and high income feels cancer Moonshot talked
about those things. Talked about international diplomacy. All of us
(40:24):
say you're the leaders of tomorrow, but it's coming on
you really quickly. Talked about all of these things. Y'all
are seeing the actual speech that he gave. Talked about
the danger to democracy, what happened on January sixth, twenty
twenty one, talked about that very issue, issued an optimistic
(40:45):
message for black students, laid the whole thing out in
his speech. So, Harris Faulkner, what hella you talking about?
You and you're a wife the cohort sitting on that
Fox panel never bothered to actually read it or listen
(41:06):
to it. No, you chose to get fixated on him
discussing white supremacy, and then you got to indignant even
though your own network has had white supremacists and white
nationalists on it talking about the very same thing QAnon
and the Proud Boys talk about as well. I never
(41:29):
heard yo ass say nothing about Tucker car said, Harris Faulkner.
Never hurt you criticize Bill O'Reilly, Harris Faulkner, It's never
hurt you. Questions Sean Hannity, Harris Faulkner, never hurt you
challenge Laura Ingram, Harris Faulkner. I've never heard you defend
(41:50):
black people, Harris Faulkner. And you have the audacity, the
unmitigated gall to sit on the air and lie y
your ass saw off because you couldn't ball it, to
do some basic damn research and go to Google and
type in Joe Biden and Howard's speech and read it
for your damn self. Oh, I ain't done. I'm gonna
(42:13):
go to a break now, I'm gonna come back, and
I'm gonna get y'all ask even further. You want your
rolling mortin unfiltered on the Black Star Network.
Speaker 2 (42:23):
Hit it.
Speaker 26 (42:29):
On the next Get Wealthy with me Deborah Owens, America's
wealth coach.
Speaker 5 (42:33):
Nurses are the backbone of.
Speaker 26 (42:35):
The healthier industry, and yet only seven percent of them
are black. What's the reason for that low number, Well,
a lack of opportunities and growth in their profession.
Speaker 5 (42:48):
Joining us on the next Get Wealthy is Needy Bartanilla.
Speaker 26 (42:52):
She's gonna be sharing exactly what nurses need to do
and what approach they need to take to take ownership
of their success.
Speaker 16 (43:01):
So the Blackbers Collaborative really spawn from a place and
a desire to create opportunities to uplift each other, those
of us in a profession to also look and reach
back and pretate and create pipelines and opportunities for other
nurses like us.
Speaker 26 (43:15):
That's right here on Get Wealthy only on Black Start him.
Speaker 27 (43:26):
I'm Foraji Muhammad live from la And this is the culture.
The culture is a two way conversation, You and me.
We talk about the stories, politics, the good, the bad,
and the downright ugly.
Speaker 11 (43:38):
So join our community every day at three.
Speaker 27 (43:41):
Pm Eastern and let your voice be heard. Hey, we're
all in this together, so let's talk about it and
see what kind of trouble we can get into. It's
the culture week days at three only on the Black
Saw Network.
Speaker 1 (43:57):
This is Judge Math. What's going on?
Speaker 6 (43:58):
Everybody?
Speaker 1 (43:59):
It's your boy, Matt he was up Yadiship boy, Jacob
Latimore and you're now watching Roland Marty right now. All right, y'all.
So here's more of the sheer stupidity that they air
every day on Outnumbered on Fox News Channel.
Speaker 5 (44:24):
He has to shore up his numbers among black voters.
Speaker 28 (44:26):
Among young people, he was pulling out about ninety percent
according to the Associated Press, with black voters.
Speaker 1 (44:31):
Now it's sixty percent.
Speaker 5 (44:32):
He has a big problem here.
Speaker 1 (44:33):
Fifty eight.
Speaker 28 (44:34):
Perhaps he might have to go back to the well
and suggest that if you are a person of a
certain skin color who doesn't support him, you're not really black.
Remember that, Yeah, from twenty twenty you brought that up
in the last hour, Harris, I'd forgotten about that quote.
Briefly you raised him like, oh yeah, he did say that.
I think that's a window into his mentality, not necessarily
into his heart, but into the way that his political
brain works and what he's trying to do that fair
(44:56):
And speaking.
Speaker 1 (44:57):
Of pandering, let me just throw this right back to you.
Speaker 28 (44:59):
When he he said, I'm not saying this because I'm here,
I'm saying this everywhere I go.
Speaker 1 (45:04):
Where is that? Is that not a panda?
Speaker 2 (45:07):
To that specifical?
Speaker 20 (45:08):
I think it sits next to it onlike the digital
websters maybe, like that is exactly a pander.
Speaker 5 (45:13):
And when he says I'm not just saying that to.
Speaker 20 (45:15):
Blacks at an HBCU, I'm just thinking, does he not
know the B an HBCU.
Speaker 5 (45:19):
Stands for black? Like, why are you saying it twice?
Speaker 20 (45:22):
Like you're really double selling this, You're really trying to
put this out there.
Speaker 5 (45:26):
And by the way, there are a lot of.
Speaker 20 (45:27):
People who teach at HBCUs. Who knows who was in
that audience?
Speaker 5 (45:31):
Yeah, I mean he we don't know.
Speaker 20 (45:33):
In my own household are people who look like you.
So I'm just wondering and I'm pointing to guy in
case you didn't see.
Speaker 6 (45:39):
That, good look at householder.
Speaker 1 (45:40):
Yeah, but I myself like this, Hairs, let me help
you out. I know you're married to a white man, Harris,
but trust me, I think the white professors at Howard
University know a hell of a lot more about black
culture and what's happening with their black students at the
Mecca than you and your husband do. Press play woit.
Speaker 20 (45:59):
With this is that if you wouldn't say it to everybody,
why are you only saying it to a certain audience.
Speaker 29 (46:04):
I think his commitment to unity lasted the end of
that sentence, because we've seen nothing but divisiveness and exactly
the kind of stoking and incendiary rhetoric coming from him
this entire time. I thought that speech was fantastically degrading.
It is so degrading to paint a portrait for based
on an assumption of the box checked by everyone's sitting
(46:27):
there and their families, and essentially that eras apparently zero
drop of anything else impacting those families, that the most
important thing facing them is this enemy, and that that
will somehow define their trajectory, define their existence by the
existence of something else. I know when I graduated college,
in my commencement speech, I was looking for inspiration. I
(46:49):
would think for my president, I would be looking for policy.
I would want to know exactly how my community could
be lifted up, how that tide rises to lift up
all boats. The kind of things where when I walk
out of there, I feel more educated, more inspired, more
equipped for my divine assignment. Instead, after that, I would
feel victimized. I would feel afraid. I would feel judgmental
(47:11):
and critical of my neighbor based on a box they checked.
This commander in chief is anything but a unifier and
that speech was appalling.
Speaker 1 (47:19):
Well, okay, that's because you a dumb as woman. You're
dumb as white woman. That's because you just dumb. I mean,
you literally didn't even read the speech. You literally didn't
even listen to it. All of y'all sound like some idiots.
We actually ran the speech. I scrolled through the entire speech.
(47:45):
He literally challenged the Howard students to be the next
generation of doctors and lawyers and scientists. And you, y'all
hos sit on Fox News and lot. But you know what,
that's no shock because you just pay seven hundred and
eighty seven pointy five million dollars to Dominion because your
(48:07):
ass was lying with Donald Trump about the election. All
of you are idiots, every single one of you, the
black and the white ones, the white man and the
white women, and the black woman, the fact that you
will knowingly lie to your audience when literally the speech
(48:32):
is there for anybody to see, shows not a single
one of you have any integrity, credibility, morals, values are principles.
Because a basic fact check exposes your lies, y'all, we
(48:54):
ain't done. Wait till this next food talks. Y'all, watch
this one.
Speaker 28 (48:58):
Weld me during the commercial break, really feeling unity in
Joe Biden's America.
Speaker 1 (49:03):
I was saying it as a joke as.
Speaker 8 (49:04):
We also he's the most divisive president, you know, in
American history.
Speaker 1 (49:08):
But the point is he's not right there. It's not
right there. Oh my god, no, no, no, no, no, no,
you're right there, right there. Please put her dumbass in
a two box, y'all. This fool just said of I God,
(49:32):
he's the most divisive president in American history. On congo,
can you share with folk the absolute racist who followed
(49:58):
Abraham Lincoln after he got assassinated, Because her dumb ass
clearly ain't never heard of that racist.
Speaker 18 (50:10):
Who was also Trump's favorite president. I mean, we're talking
about a situation where you know you have Andrew Jackson,
a man who's sit here who said I don't care
about the Supreme Court as it relates to Native American land.
Speaker 11 (50:23):
I'm going to take it anyway because I got.
Speaker 18 (50:24):
The Army and they don't retook That's why situations with
the Freeman Bureau never really got off track because of
Andrew Jackson. I mean, this guy, this man was probably
the most racist president we ever had. And then we
get Trump later, who has a proud portrait of him
to constantly take pictures at or stand next to while
he's in the Oval office. The fact of the matter
(50:45):
is more, we have more presidents who have been racist.
Speaker 2 (50:48):
Than not right.
Speaker 11 (50:50):
And so when we look at it at the end
of the day and we're coming to to Biden.
Speaker 18 (50:53):
Anything that goes against a white extremist white pride narrative
is considered divisive, period, bottom line. And that's why this
really ties into your first segment, because every single step
that they I mean, look, just today, Paul Gosar was
found to have a neo Nazi as part.
Speaker 11 (51:11):
Of his staff.
Speaker 18 (51:12):
Everything they do is about uplifting white supremacy, and so
anything that speaks against that is going to be a threat.
And furthermore, rolling to your point, the fact that they
don't even care about what's presented. They don't care about
reading his stories, they don't care about reading what was
actually in the speech. All they want to do is
bring him down for anything. I mean, looks gonn't matter.
(51:32):
In his first presidential campaign ad when he ran a
few years ago, and his recent one, white supremacy was
right there in the ads everywhere he's gone, he said,
I'm running because of what happened in Charlottesville. And so
he told you literally does talk about this everywhere he
goes presidential debate, called out Trump is what led Trump
to say, stand back and stand by. So their ignorance
is why Tucker Parston was found to not even be
(51:54):
able to be called a credible new source.
Speaker 1 (51:56):
But here it is.
Speaker 11 (51:57):
They are, and you are exposing them one hundred percent.
Speaker 1 (52:00):
But but here's the deal. Okay, so he said this here, Pamela,
please share with our folk about that racist Herbert Hoover
who led the lily white faction of the Republican Party.
You know, there's some reason why we don't want to
(52:25):
know the truth.
Speaker 14 (52:26):
We want to find anti black people who will speak
and just say anything trying to indoctrinate people. Understand what
this term means, that the Republican are using all the time.
It means to keep telling something to the poor where
people don't criticize it and don't check the facts. Look
at what these people have done historically and are still doing.
(52:50):
White supremacy is on the rise, and it's everywhere, and
we see it. We see it in the politics that
this Republican Party is pushing in and pushing in and
trying to erase and to change the narra of our history,
of our story, because in fact, let's just erase all this,
let's take this out and let's add this, and let's
make make people think that these were the good people
(53:12):
and racism won't.
Speaker 1 (53:16):
It doesn't exist. But really, but when you when you're
so dumb and say he's the most divisive in history, Julian,
just explain the folk, the absolute virulent racist who what
Droe Wilson was.
Speaker 5 (53:35):
Oh please, he would not have black people in the
white House. He basically explaining it.
Speaker 17 (53:43):
He was not only a died inable racist, he had
so many other issues and challenges that people who.
Speaker 5 (53:50):
Had things named after him are taking them down.
Speaker 1 (53:53):
He bade banded black folk from being hired in the
federal government. He he re entered to the segregation. The
man is show Birth of a nation. That racist d W.
Grifforth movie in the White House helped promote it across
the country.
Speaker 17 (54:09):
Roland black people who were civil servants lost their jobs
under Woodrow Wilson.
Speaker 5 (54:14):
They had worked their way up and they lost their
jobs because of him.
Speaker 17 (54:17):
He you know, I don't understand who that little chick
was whatever she was talking about, But I don't watch
Fox do so their level of idiocy is unparalleled. I
don't understand who the little fucktor whatever her name is,
that little chick is either.
Speaker 5 (54:29):
But between the between the five people of that panel.
Speaker 17 (54:32):
I think you might have had a third of a
brain because the nonsense they were spouting, especially you know,
Biden being the most divisive.
Speaker 5 (54:40):
Come on, we can look at so many others. We
can look at rich Richard Dixon with his Southern strategy.
We could look we could go.
Speaker 17 (54:48):
Further back we you know, I mean, we could just
go president by president by That's.
Speaker 1 (54:53):
My whole point. The problem is with one of these
idiots when when they get up here and they say,
oh my god, he was the most the divisive effort,
it's because the audience they haven't read. They don't know,
and so again what she said was a flat out, undeniable,
easily proven lie. All right, let me go, let me
(55:16):
go back to lion ass. Harris Faulkner. Harris Faulkner, who
I know, I can text a lying ass right now?
Harris Faulkner said, Oh, Joe Biden brought these things up?
Has he ever said that in front of white people? Henry,
(55:38):
go to my iPad?
Speaker 17 (55:40):
She is coming up done, going.
Speaker 30 (55:44):
Up parton.
Speaker 1 (55:48):
Justin Morgan, Riz Brian, Oh hold up right there, Oh
put lord, please can you give it to me right here? Please?
Because I just want to make sure, okay, I don't
wear glasses. Uh that's that's a somewhat of a glare
on my monitor here. Uh, but I got damn good
(56:09):
eyes sight. It looking like I want lot of white
people in this audience. I'm sick. White white white white
white white white white white white white white white white
white white white white white white white white white white
(56:29):
white white white. But go over here, uh, white white
white white, white, white, white white white Do y'all know
what this is? This is called the United We Stand Summit,
taking Action to prevent an address hate motivated violence and
(56:51):
Falster unity. This is also called Harris farkman. It's a
damn lot, she said, Biden, has he ever addressed these
things in front of white people? Harris, these people look
like the person you're married to. Those are your words.
(57:16):
So this is what happens, Harris, when you go on
the air and make an ass out of yourself and
just straight up and lie. Because because he said these
things in front of black people, I mean, so I
don't recall him saying these things in front of white people.
(57:39):
Joe Biden said, I've talked about it. That's what he said.
And so you're sitting here mad because he brought it up.
And what you're trying to do, You want to sit
here and use black people as your foio when you
didn't even bother Harris to actually check the facts. Yep, yep.
(58:10):
May seventeenth, twenty twenty two. President Joe Biden on Tuesday
called on Americas to reject the poison of white supremacy
and urged lawmakers to band weapons of mass destruction. That's
from roll Call May seventeen. See. As a matter of fact,
(58:30):
I wish I could let me see if I can
go get this here, get this here straight henryducing my
iPad here, good pull it up. See this is for
Harris Faulkner, who clearly don't know you know, damn research y'all.
Let me see you how easy this is. I went
to Google and I typed in Joe Biden discussed this
(58:52):
white supremacy. Y'all saw how easy that was. Do you
see what came up? What came up was, oh damn,
it came up his Howard University speech. Uh. It talked
about remarks of Joe Biden right here.
Speaker 6 (59:10):
What is this?
Speaker 1 (59:12):
Is this the State of the Union? Oh, y'all, control room?
Can y'all please pull up some video of a State
of the Union, because I recall that was a lot
of white people who were sitting in that audience. I
don't think that was an all black audience. Maybe Pamela
on the Congo Julian got some different information on that one.
(59:34):
But last time checked, last night check, that's a pretty
damn white room. And so according to this here search,
which came up number one, Biden mentioned white supremacy in
his State of the Union address that I think a
lot of white people also happened to be watching the
(59:55):
State of the Union. So for her for Harris Faulkner
to suggest that old Biden has never talked about these
things in front of white people. My god, it's amazing
how Google can just make you look like a damn fool.
This is literally the speech right here, y'all. So let
me just gone back. Okay, right here, I told y'all
(01:00:18):
right here at boom, huh huh, Oh my god. April
twenty eighth, twenty twenty one. Oh, watch, Biden said during
his first joint session to join agrees to Congress. White
supremacy is the most lethal threat. Oh my god, Well
all those white people there, Oh, look at this, Lord
(01:00:40):
have mercy, Biden said. On April twenty, he said that
white supremacy is the most lethal threat to the homeland today.
You know what, since we're here, fat, you can just
go ahead and play it.
Speaker 9 (01:00:55):
Determined to be the most lethal terrorist threat to the
homeland today.
Speaker 2 (01:01:00):
To back.
Speaker 9 (01:01:02):
What our intelligence agents had determined to be the most
lethal terrorist threat to the homeland today, white supremacy is terrorism.
We're not going to ignore that either, my fellow Americans. Look,
we have to come together to heal the soul of
this nation.
Speaker 1 (01:01:21):
Oh so, I'm hey, I'm confused. I'm confused when you say, oh,
he's panning the black people. He brought those things up
in front of us, and he hasn't brought those things
but infront of white Oh my goodness, y'all. That was
on April twenty eighth, twenty twenty one. Lord, have mercy.
Right here. President Biden calls white supremacy a poison when
(01:01:45):
he went to Buffalo, y'all in May twenty twenty two.
Ain't that something? He said that right here when he
went to Buffalo. Let me keep going right here, y'all
can pull up right there. This is when just you
know what, what the hell, just go ahead and play it.
Let's just play it.
Speaker 9 (01:02:03):
White supremacy is a poison.
Speaker 2 (01:02:06):
It's a poison.
Speaker 9 (01:02:08):
Running through it really is.
Speaker 11 (01:02:13):
Running through our body.
Speaker 9 (01:02:14):
Politic, and it's been allowed to fester and grow right
in front of her eyes.
Speaker 1 (01:02:19):
I'm just wondering what any white people in the audience
they're in Buffalo, Yeah, I think there were, see y'all.
What I'm doing is I'm showing you what happens when
liars lie on television and just make stuff up and
their dumb, largely white conservative audience on Fox News eats
(01:02:43):
it up thinking that they're telling the truth. You know what,
just for shits and giggles, give me a little bit
more of the idiots from Fox News, which.
Speaker 8 (01:02:53):
Neighbor against neighbor, people against the other.
Speaker 5 (01:02:56):
That is the point of this.
Speaker 8 (01:02:57):
Like every Marxist before him, you have to have someone
to blame, you have to have intentionally divide society. Did
this during COVID with the unvaccinated, like me trying to say, hey,
don't spend Christmas with your unvaccinated family member.
Speaker 1 (01:03:10):
They're dangerous, they're unclean.
Speaker 8 (01:03:12):
He did this heading into the midterm elections with Ultra
Maga standing with the military flame to behind him, labeling
seventy five million Americans as enemies of the state.
Speaker 1 (01:03:21):
And now he's just doing it with white people.
Speaker 8 (01:03:23):
And the sad part is and the irony of it
is that Joe Biden has probably made some of the
most racist statements of any president in American history. Whether
it was paling around with segregation as whether it was
saying that Obama was the first black American who's bright, articulate,
and clean, whether it was saying he didn't want his
kids to grow up in a racial jungle, whether it
was saying that you have to have an Indian accent
to go into a set or work at a seven
(01:03:44):
to eleven, or go into a seven eleven, which I
was so, I mean, so he has actually made blatantly
racist statements. But then he has the audacity to sit
there and intentionally divide Americans because guess what, Rome is
burning and the country is a mess, and he's trying
to prevent a distraction and have people to have a
group of people for everyone to blame for their problem.
Speaker 1 (01:04:02):
And by the way, just very quickly, stop stop stop
right there. I do not want y'all to miss what
she just said. He wants a group of people to
blame someone else for their problems. I do not want
(01:04:23):
y'all to miss what she just said. See the reason
we do these deconstructions is because the other folk just
sort of play a little clip. But right there she
said what her intention was. You people, you're blaming someone
else for your problems. It's your problem when it comes
(01:04:48):
to crime, it's your problem, when it comes to criminal justice,
it's your problem when it comes to education. You're trying
to blame somebody else for all of your problems. As
if the federal government did not sanction redlining, as if
the federal government did not have laws that prevented black
(01:05:10):
people from owning banks, As if the federal government did
not allow did not prevent black people from living in
public housing that's led to the race riots in Detroit,
in Chicago and other places. As if the federal government
and the state governments and the county governments and the
city governments did not play a role in the present
(01:05:31):
day conditions of black folks all across this country. What
you're seeing, or a group of white people on Fox
News and a black apologist on Fox News literally lie
to their audience and paint a picture that the only
(01:05:56):
thing Joe Biden talked about in his speech at Howard
University on Saturday, The only thing he talked about was
white supremacy.
Speaker 2 (01:06:09):
When we have now.
Speaker 1 (01:06:10):
Shown you the facts, go to my iPad twenty nineteen.
During the campaign, Biden says, Trump fans flames of white
supremacy as Democrats attack racism. This took place right here here,
he was speaking, HM, oh my god, look at this here, y'all.
(01:06:32):
Let me just go ahead and read it in both
clear language and in colde This president has fanned the
flames of white supremacy in this nation. Biden, the former
Vice president, said, in a speech in Burlington, Iowa, huh, come,
you know, matter of fact, you know, just go ahead
and I leave it on a racial makeup of Berlin, Iowa. Well,
(01:07:05):
damn y'all, Joe Biden gave a speech in Burlington, Iowa
that is comprised of eighty six point six three percent
white people, and Harry matter of fact, control room. See
if y'all can find video of that speech. I just
(01:07:26):
want to see because Clinton eight point two five percent
of Burlinchin is black. So the way Harris talking, every
Negro in Burlingen, Iowa was at that speech and nobody
else was there. I got a feeling. I got a
feeling that if he gave a speech in a city
as eighty six percent white, it was a good number
of white people who were in the audience. To everybody
(01:07:51):
who's watching and listening, what I've just laid out to
you is how white mainstream media uses white voices and
black face, black faces in white spaces to construct a
flat out lie. And so now what they have done.
(01:08:14):
They have now said Biden went to Howard, and all
he did was talked to the black folks like they
were victims. See that's what happened. And then you had
a little white woman in the green. He was trying
to blame somebody else for their problems when he literally
said to those students, you can change America. He, y'all
(01:08:39):
is in the speech. He literally challenged them to save America,
to save the democracy, to save the republic, for them
to be the best they can be. Not one person
on Fox News would say that is because, and I
(01:09:01):
keep trying to tell y'all, the job of Fox News
and Newsmax and One American News and The Blaze and
conservative talk radio, it is to push the buttons of
white fear. Because they know the only way they can
(01:09:24):
win is if when they are getting rid of ballot
drop boxes and when they are keeping folks from voting
and voter id and if they scare white people into voting.
That's why they hate diversity, equity inclusion. That's why they
hate multiculturalism. That's why they cannot stand anything that speaks
(01:09:48):
to black people and Latino people and Asian people, Native
American people, non white people from being able to benefit
in this society. See, they ain't gonna show you by
talking to all of them white folks in twenty nineteen
discussing white supremacy press play. What I talk see, facts
(01:10:11):
are facts, y'all. They sitting right here. What you have
just heard me do is literally take every single lie
from Harris Faulkner and Kaylee mcanennie and God Benson and
let me. I want to name check everybody. I want
(01:10:31):
to name check everybody. Give me the other two names.
What I'm looking for right now? Give me the other
two names. Lisa, what the hell is her name?
Speaker 2 (01:10:43):
What I don't know?
Speaker 1 (01:10:44):
Again, y'all, give me the names.
Speaker 2 (01:10:47):
Y'all.
Speaker 1 (01:10:49):
They are deliberately lying. That's why they had to pay
dominion and I can't wait is a semantic that as
the other company I hope they take. They asked to
the cleaners, Lisa Booth, and who's the other person? Emily who?
Emily Copano, Lisa Booth, Kaylee mcadenni, God Benson, and Harris Faulkner.
(01:11:13):
Shame on all five of y'all. And you know what,
Shame on you, Suzanne Scott, the CEO of Fox News,
because you knowingly allow your host to go on your
network and just lie. I have debunked all their lies,
and y'all ain't gonna correct it because your network is
(01:11:34):
built on the lie. Because your damn show not a
real news network. You're not Fox News, your folk news.
You fake. You are truly fake news because that segment
was simply gutter trash and a flat out lie. And
(01:11:54):
specifically Harris Faulkner, Shame on you because you know better,
or at least you should. You're watching Rolling By Unfiltered
on the Black Star Network. Well, we check facts before
we speak back in the moment, we talk about blackness
(01:12:18):

We wish to plead our own cause to long have

if we can't pay for it. This is about covering
us invest in black on media. Your dollars matter. We

Why is it important?
Speaker 31 (01:13:26):
And how do you get there?

It could change your life.

Speaker 2 (01:13:58):
Hi, I'm bb Winding.
Speaker 1 (01:14:00):
Hi I'm Kimberrell.
Speaker 5 (01:14:02):
Hey, everybody is a Sherry Shepherd. You're watching Roland Martin
unfiltered and while he's doing unfiltered, I'm practicing your walk.
Speaker 1 (01:14:13):
So apparently Greg gutt Feel on Fox News is the
five brought up the whole white supremacy thing again. I'm
gonna roast his ass tomorrow. Let's talk about this here, folks.
Last week you might remember we tell you the story
of Andrew Gillim and one of the associates being found
not guilty on one charge, the jury was dead locked
(01:14:34):
on the others. Well, today federal prosecutors put forth emotion
in the courtroom announcing they are not going to retry
Andrew Gillum, the twenty eighteen Democratic nominee for Florida governor,
and of course Sharon Lippman hits his longtime associate again.
(01:14:55):
The US attorney announced that they were going to retry
them under the dyke of diverting tens of thousands of
dollars in campaign contributions for personal use. But today they
asked the judge to dismiss the remaining corruption charges against them.
Prosecutors said again they intend to retry them, but reverse
their decision. The judge did not immediately rule on the
(01:15:16):
motion today, but generally judges give following the judges normally
follow the prosecutor's lead. Here is the real deal here
on a congo. You know what happens when they have
a hung jury. The prosecutors go in and they go
talk to the jurors. They win, had those conversations and
(01:15:36):
the jewors were like, y'all case ain't shit. Your case
is trash. And some of them even talked about how
it was grossly confusing, and they were like, seriously, they
don't trial for this here. They knew they could not
convict them because this jury said the charters were pretty
much bogus, and they were not going to get a
second jury to believe them.
Speaker 18 (01:15:56):
And that's why I'm glad that that Gillum fought this,
because we know that in Florida, with von de Santis
and the hole that he has over all areas of
politics down there, he's going to do anything to make
sure that any potential future opponent, just like he was
his past opponent, right is going to be smeared and the.
Speaker 11 (01:16:12):
Fame in some way, shape or form. And so for
Gilam to go.
Speaker 18 (01:16:15):
Out and make sure, you know, he could have taken
some type of plea or just something to kind of
stay you know, below the radar and maybe not make
a public face for himself. Again with a trial like this,
it speaks a lot to his character. And people can
talk about, you know, issues in the personal life. Those
are personal issues. But when you have a governor and
when you have these Republicans there who are really out
(01:16:37):
to target any person who could be a potential threat
to and I think he lost by what thirty four
thousand votes or something to DeSantis. He tried to go
after him, and he tried to make it so that
he couldn't come back hard. And so I'm hoping that
Gillim takes this and use this to motivate himself and
fortify himself to maybe give it another run in some way,
shape or form in Florida, because I do believe that
(01:16:57):
he was a rising star, and I feel like, given
everything that's going on there, he can still do a
lot of good in that state. And so to get
out there and not give up and not give in,
knowing that they were never going to stop trying to
smear him, I commend him for his fortitude.
Speaker 1 (01:17:12):
You know, normally in these type of cases, Julian and
we know fellow authorities is typically guaranteed they gonna get
a conviction. I mean, their conviction rate off the time.
One of the reason their conviction rate is so high
because folks simply plead guilty and they don't want to
face the un noned States government. This is a case
where they said no, we're going to fight you, and
(01:17:33):
the government lost. And now they got an egg on
their face like a fool. Just like listen, Brian Benjamin.
They charged him, forced him to resign as Lieutenant governor
of New York, and then what happened, had to drop
the charges and so his name is now selling. He's
no longer lieutenant governor. And so this is what happens.
And so if you this is where I say, if
you know you didn't do it, damn, but you got
(01:17:55):
to fight.
Speaker 5 (01:17:56):
Andrew Gillum is he's a hero to me for any
no reasons.
Speaker 17 (01:18:00):
He did so well in that gubernatorial like Oba Congo said, well,
thirty four thousand votes off of toppling Disantus. But even
more than that, he's a smart brother with a lot
of integrity, a lot of policy ideas, a lot of
good sense. They really threw a bathtub at a drizzle.
Speaker 5 (01:18:21):
If you will, they just threw the book at him
because they could.
Speaker 17 (01:18:24):
And so I commend him for standing up and standing
in his truth and in his innocence. The jury couldn't
figure it out because the prosecutor couldn't figure it out.
Speaker 5 (01:18:34):
But you know what we have to say.
Speaker 17 (01:18:36):
I just admire the young brother so very much for
so many things, but especially for his integrity. Here and again,
what we know about prosecutorial discretion is they could go
after who they want to, they can choose to ignore
who they want to. That's why the former president took
him forever to get convicted on anything.
Speaker 5 (01:18:57):
In any case. That discretion often works against black people.
We know that.
Speaker 1 (01:19:02):
Look, here's the thing here Dot Maryland Moseby is dealing
with this crap right now. The US attorney in Maryland
is trying to go after her for saying she withdrew
money early from her own retirement account that like y'all
(01:19:25):
spending that time, and so she and here's what they do.
It least for you to rack up hundreds of thousand
dollars in legal bills, leaves you in debt even if
you were quitted.
Speaker 14 (01:19:37):
Exactly, Doctorill, GoAhead, Yes, you know there has always been
an effort to remove black folks who are in political
positions are seeking Uh, there was a time you may
remember when a majority of black counsel persons were being
(01:19:58):
investigated to their offices and went through their things. And
it's just this fear that if these people get up
in office, if these black folks who are who have integrity,
who are honest, and who care about their communities get
into these positions, we're gonna see these changes. And so
you have these other folks who are trying their best
(01:20:18):
to find whatever they can to knock us down. But
as you can see, we're keep coming back. And I
am so elated to know that we see people like
this brother who stand up, who speak out, and it
encourages other young people who want to run for office
(01:20:39):
to have a path to follow, to know what they
need to do. So it's very encouraging again that he
didn't back down. He stood up and said, come on,
you're gonna have to fight me, and I'm ready.
Speaker 1 (01:20:52):
Oh absolutely, And show again they now get to move
forward and show hopefully they will be able to recover
from this because typically again when they come after you,
you have a mountains of debt in legal bills, and
unlike when a white man kills a black man on
a subway station, you don't have two million dollars that's
(01:21:15):
raised by folk for your legal defense fund. And then
you don't have folks like Governor Rond de Santis tweeting out, hey, hey,
kick them some money to defend themselves in court. Literally,
Daniel Penny has raised more than two million dollars through
his GoFundMe, and folks like Governor Ronda Sata is actually
posted on social media for folks to give to this
(01:21:36):
man's legal defense fund for choking a black man to death.
And the fools at Fox News don't think whiteness is real.
You're watching Roller markin Unfiltered on the Blackstone Network.
Speaker 12 (01:21:53):
Next on the Black Table with me Greg Call, we
look at one of the most influential and prominent black
of Man Americans of the twentieth century.
Speaker 6 (01:22:02):
His work literally changed the work.
Speaker 12 (01:22:05):
Among other things, he played a major role in creating
the United Nations. He was the first African American and
first person of color to win the Nobel Peace brud
and yet today he is hardly a household name. We're talking,
of course, about Ralph J. Bunch, a new book refers
to him as the absolutely indispensable man.
Speaker 10 (01:22:27):
His lifelong interest and passion in racial justice, specifically in
the form of colonialism, and he saw his work as
an activist and advocate for the black community here in
the United States as just the other side of the.
Speaker 6 (01:22:44):
Coin of his work trying to roll back European.
Speaker 11 (01:22:48):
Empire and Africa.
Speaker 12 (01:22:49):
Author cal Rastilla will join us to share his incredible story.
Speaker 6 (01:22:55):
That's on the next Black Table here on the Black
Star Network.
Speaker 21 (01:23:00):
Next right here on the Frequency, the woman they called
the Gifted Eye, hip hop celebrity photographer, Cory Soldier. She's
some massive storyteller that captured the history of.
Speaker 5 (01:23:10):
Hip hop's through the lens of her camera. Upa comes
out the next thing.
Speaker 3 (01:23:14):
You know, you didn't know who they were at first.
You just seen all these dudes just come.
Speaker 5 (01:23:19):
Rushing the stage, didn't you realize.
Speaker 22 (01:23:22):
Biggy gets a bottle of champagne. He pops it open,
raised it on the crowd.
Speaker 5 (01:23:26):
He drenched the bottle.
Speaker 21 (01:23:28):
Coy Soldier, the hip hop celebrity photographer, joining me right
here in the next episode of The Frequency on the
Blackstar Network.
Speaker 24 (01:23:35):
So ha ha ha ha ha ha hai.
Speaker 5 (01:23:42):
Hey, I'm Anthony Smith.
Speaker 11 (01:23:44):
Ulna well, and you were watching Rolling Martin on the field.
Speaker 1 (01:23:54):
Judges Misssippi has ruled against three Jackson residents who found
a lawsuit challenging a house build that would create a
separate judicial and police force in the Capitol Complex. Judge
Dwayne Thomas said the plain disclaims failed on all merits.
He said they could not prove beyond a reasonable doubt
that the challenge provisions were on constitutional. Under House Built
(01:24:14):
ten twenty, Capitol Police will be given primary jurisdiction within
the expanded Capital Complex Improvement District boundary liance. Jackson Police
would have secondary jurisdiction. The bill will also place certain
areas within the majority black city most of the majority
of white neighborhoods, under the jurisdiction of a new court system.
That new system would send those convicted of misdemeanors to
state prisons rather than county jails, and the pal could
(01:24:38):
be filed in this case. In a separate case, the
federal judge timporarily blocked House Built ten twenty form becoming law.
On Friday, May twelfth, US District Court Judge Henry winning
Gate granted the NAACP's motion to block the Chief justice
from appointing judges under the law, while House Built ten
twenty is being challenged in court. Well, that's the battle
(01:24:58):
that continues over and over and over again there. This
is also why you have to have our legal groups.
This is the thing here, This is the thing right here, Pamela,
that we have to have to recognize. And I was
at the naacp LDF dinner a couple of weeks ago
(01:25:20):
we supported laws gree for civil rights under law. I
don't think a lot of folks watching, a lot of
black folks really understand what is happening, the work that
is being put in, the fights and the battles that
are happening all across this country by our legal organizations
are Legal Titans, Barbara on Wines Transforming Justice Coalition, and
(01:25:44):
we could go on and on and on. I mean,
these folks are doing the doing the critical work needed
using the law to fight the racist things that are
happening in this country.
Speaker 14 (01:25:56):
Absolutely no we for somety to think that we have
overcome We're not paying attention to these new Jim Crow
laws that are being instituted right before our eyes. We're
so preoccupied with stuff that don't mean anything and We
really need to pay attention to these laws because they
will affect us, and we're.
Speaker 5 (01:26:14):
Seeing it now.
Speaker 14 (01:26:15):
We have to look, you know, I mean things like voting,
of course, the constant attack against diversity, and trying to
erase black history, not granting professor's tenures, they even teach it,
or talk about or even mention certain certain words. So
it's really imperative that we try to educate our communities
(01:26:35):
about what's going on.
Speaker 5 (01:26:37):
And a great place to be will be in the churches.
Speaker 14 (01:26:41):
You know, our churches used to be those spaces where
we could organize. We have to get back back to
that and maybe, you know, have some kind of campaign
where we will talk about what's going on in our
communities so that will know what we need to do
and understand how these laws will work against us.
Speaker 1 (01:27:01):
No, absolutely, I'm a congo. Again. When we talk about
this multi pronged strategy, it is a battle, it is
a war, and it has always been the case. Our
legal minds have always been at work, just like those
on the business side, just like those on the protest side,
(01:27:24):
just like those who are out in the streets in
the suites. And so when we talk about how we
change black America for the future. It literally is going
to require all of our forces moving. As doctor King
said on April third, nineteen sixty eight, operating as a collective.
Speaker 18 (01:27:43):
Absolutely and being involved in all things relating to law
is an extreme part of the process.
Speaker 2 (01:27:49):
You know.
Speaker 18 (01:27:49):
Unfortunately, the only times you really hear things on television
outside of the Blackstar Network relating to black lawyers is
when we're dealing with the situation of an unarmed shooting
of a black person by the police, and we have
people like you know, the greatly Merit and the great
Ben Kromp on the air, and of course they need
to have their stories continue to be magnified in terms
(01:28:10):
of the work they're doing. But you're absolutely right in
terms of the work that a legal defense fund, you know,
jay Z has an organization that's dealing with it, has
a legal team as well. And really, at the end
of the day, if we don't get more sophisticated with
the law and support the people in our community who
are actually doing this work, who already have the knowledge,
I hope that there's Mississippi case on appeal, maybe they'll
(01:28:32):
start to tighten some of the you know, get to
the case a little bit tighter and come back again.
Speaker 11 (01:28:37):
But if we don't do that, we are going.
Speaker 18 (01:28:40):
To lose, because time and time again, from the local
level up to the Senate Roland, these Republicans have shown
that they have been willing or able to outfox us
in many ways pun intended.
Speaker 11 (01:28:53):
On some of these legal issues.
Speaker 18 (01:28:55):
And even with the situation with Einstein, they couldn't even
replace her because Republicans won't allow a vote to have
or be temporarily replaced. They understand this stuff at a
deeper level than many of us have shown. Even with
the election of Donald Trump, many of us knew the
Republicans knew it.
Speaker 11 (01:29:10):
Was about the Supreme Court.
Speaker 18 (01:29:11):
They hated him, but they knew it was about the
Supreme Court and federal judges and these local judges. The
Heritage Foundation has a list of judges that they want approved.
And so really, at the end of the day, I'm
so glad you brought this up because we need to
support those of us putting in serious work in the
legal profession to be able to successfully challenge these laws.
(01:29:32):
And if we don't do that, then they're not going
to get to support that they need. And these types
of folks are going to keep on winning in places
like Jackson and Flint and other places across the country.
They already got the legislation we're in, They already got
the policies we're in.
Speaker 11 (01:29:45):
We need to support the legal minds. Going right back
at them here, Leon.
Speaker 5 (01:29:50):
I agree with Obacongo completely.
Speaker 17 (01:29:53):
We basically have not been first of all supportive of
our legal infrastructure. The Legal Defense Fund, barbar Arline, Lawyer's Committee,
they all did.
Speaker 5 (01:30:03):
They're on the bag all the time. They get some
foundation support.
Speaker 17 (01:30:06):
But just like people give money to church, give money,
we should be giving money to our legal infrastructure. The
second thing I would say is that we see this
tricky nonsense that these Republicans are fooling with, and we
don't talk about it enough.
Speaker 5 (01:30:20):
That jerry mandering.
Speaker 17 (01:30:22):
I bet you if you pold twenty black people tool
that will know what jerry mandering is.
Speaker 2 (01:30:26):
That.
Speaker 5 (01:30:26):
I'm not saying that people are ignorant. I'm saying that people.
Speaker 17 (01:30:29):
Choose not to know. We choose not to know. The
Jackson case is so extremely egregious to just create a
new legislative district which increases the penalties that people will
have to spend for a misdemeanor as opposed to going
to jail, you go to go to the penitentiary. That's absurd.
But this is again we're going back to.
Speaker 5 (01:30:48):
The eighteen eighteen fifties, eighteen sixties, if that earlier than that.
So we have to, you know, we shout out the
ben Crumbs and the barber Armwines. We dig down. There's
some other.
Speaker 17 (01:31:02):
Basically stellar lawyers through the local stuff that's really important.
The folks in Jackson and the N DOUBLEACP Legal Defense
and Education Fund, they don't call themselves at anywhere, but
anyway I call it that they basically deserve our full support,
as does the big N double ACP.
Speaker 5 (01:31:19):
We've got to do better, folks.
Speaker 17 (01:31:20):
If we don't do better, you know, let's fast forward
ten years and see where black people are.
Speaker 5 (01:31:24):
We ain't gonna like it.
Speaker 1 (01:31:25):
In the tap of Black and Missing, do we have
a sound of Brandon Johnson. Kayla Washington has been missing
(01:31:48):
from her Homestead, Florida home since May fourth. A seventeen
year old, is five feet one inches tall, weighs one
d nine pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. Anyone
with information about Kayla Washington should call the Homestead, Florida
Police Department at three zero five, two four seven one
five three five three zero five two four seven one
five three five folks Today, Chicago swore in its fifty
(01:32:10):
seventh mayor, Brandon Johnson took the oath of office today,
where hundreds of people flocked to the Credit Union One
Arena on Monday to watch him. A union organizer and
county commissioner, also former public school teacher, sworn in as
the mayor of Chicago.
Speaker 25 (01:32:29):
The soul of Chicago tells us we will never close
our doors to those who come here and search of
a better life. For as scripture says, I was hungry
and you gave me something to eat. I was thirsty
(01:32:51):
and you gave me something to drink. I was a
stranger and you invited me in.
Speaker 1 (01:32:57):
I needed closed and you.
Speaker 6 (01:33:01):
I was sick and you looked after me. I was
in prison and you came to visit me.
Speaker 25 (01:33:08):
That has always been the soul of Chicago, and it
will always be the soul of Chicago. We know the
strength of a city is determined by how we treat
the most vulnerable, and so we choose to be a
(01:33:29):
strong city.
Speaker 2 (01:33:30):
We must reject a zero sum.
Speaker 25 (01:33:32):
Formulation between investing in those who have been here for
decades and supporting those who have been sitting here on
a bus even this morning. We can do both Chicago,
and we can all thrive together.
Speaker 1 (01:33:49):
Got up job in his hands, trying to convince these
ornament that he does not have ulterior motives. They got
a major major issues dealing with budgets and pensions. Also,
they'll be holts in the twenty two for a Democratic
National convention in Chicago. He also has support a new
Chicago police superintendent, and again the city has been struggling
with issues such as crime in bad schools. Over this
(01:34:11):
past weekend, twenty five people were shot in Chicago, six
were killed, according to the cops. He's got one hell
of a tough job on well, yes, And.
Speaker 14 (01:34:23):
I think that, of course his background, particularly working in education,
he'll have a different perspective on how to deal with things.
And it sounds like he really has a lot of support.
And I'm glad to hear someone say that we're going
to open our arms to everyone, because that's what we're
supposed to do, supposed to give, and we receive that.
Speaker 1 (01:34:44):
And I hope that, you know, he doesn't fall down.
Speaker 14 (01:34:50):
I hope that there are people around him to make sure.
Speaker 5 (01:34:52):
That he.
Speaker 6 (01:34:54):
Supported and.
Speaker 5 (01:34:57):
We just have to wait and see, see see what happens.
Speaker 14 (01:35:00):
But he sounds like he is going to make an
impact positive one.
Speaker 1 (01:35:05):
It is going to be a very, very tough job.
But look, the voters picked him. Julian now spend towning him.
Speaker 2 (01:35:12):
Go to work.
Speaker 5 (01:35:14):
You know, this is a rising star. He's amazing.
Speaker 17 (01:35:16):
I met him several times, been on the air with
him with Reverend Jackson's radio show. What's interesting about Brandon
And this is a lesson that we can all take.
A year ago, he had two percent name recognition in Chicago,
two percent, and he ends up winning the mayoralty over
(01:35:38):
a well financed police guy of Vallas's opponent was heavily
endorsed by the police union. Mayor Johnson heavily endorsed by
the teachers union, and most of his money coming from
unions in terms of contributions. So police education, police education.
(01:35:58):
That lets you know where he's coming from. He does
have to appoint a superintendent of the police or chief
police chief, but that's not his number one priority.
Speaker 5 (01:36:08):
He's got a lot of priorities and.
Speaker 17 (01:36:09):
He's going to have to juggle and he's got a
heck of a hard job, but I believe he's equal
to it. He is a protege of Reverend Jackson's. He's
just really amazing. I have very high hopes, but I
agree with Pamela. It's also going to be a challenge
for him to get through the aldermen who basically are
stuck on difficult just really are stuck on difficult.
Speaker 5 (01:36:32):
But that's always the case in Chicago. So I just
hope he does well, and I'm pretty sure he will.
Speaker 1 (01:36:38):
I'm on Congo, well.
Speaker 18 (01:36:41):
I remember we had him on the show, you know,
the night before the election, and I'm remembering.
Speaker 11 (01:36:46):
Eric Adams and others who have been on the show,
and shout.
Speaker 18 (01:36:49):
Out to those politicians out there who respect the power
of black media as it relates to reaching their intendant audience.
When it comes to to Mayor Johnson, I think that
it's also important to understand that we need to have
more educators, people.
Speaker 11 (01:37:02):
Who come from our community.
Speaker 18 (01:37:04):
Is it, you know, brother Jamal a representative in New
York as well, you know, as a former educator, people
who have seen what happens in our communities as it
relates to violence, as relates to underfunding, as it relates.
Speaker 11 (01:37:15):
To the needs of our students to be able to
come and be whole.
Speaker 18 (01:37:18):
And when I'm harping back on this education piece, because
when you focus on making you know, the school's whole,
there are wrap around services that you have to bring
to a community that are going to help the entire
community as relates to job creation reduction and violence of
reduction and people who are not engaged in after school
activities and they're like and this is a person who
(01:37:39):
understands that. So I'm very excited about what's going to
happen with Chicago, and even as it relates to.
Speaker 11 (01:37:44):
The superintendent thing.
Speaker 18 (01:37:46):
You know, Brian Johnson is somebody who believes in having
partnerships with the police and the community, and so I
feel like if he continues to move forward with the
support that he has, understand that he wasn't and that's
a mandate for people who God is back and want
to see something better these aldermen and these other people,
that will be a challenge. But if he continues to
have that city at his back, I think amazing things
(01:38:07):
can happen in Chicago. And lastly, Roland, I'm very happy
with the fact that he took on this issue of
these these migrants and these workers being busted. These cities
with black mayors took it head on and said, hey,
we are here for it because that says more about
who we are. So man props to him and the
best of luck.
Speaker 1 (01:38:25):
All right, folks, ho tit one second. We come back
live Wind. They said, the COVID emergency is over, but
it is still an issue. Be sure to protect your health.
We'll talk about that next time. Roland Mark unfiltup on
the Blackstore Network.

Speaker 27 (01:39:27):
I'm Faraji Muhammad live from la and this is the culture.
The culture is a two way conversation, you and me.
We talk about the stories, politics, the good, the bad,
and the downright ugly. So join our community every day
at three pm Eastern and let your voice be heard. Hey,
we're all in this together, so let's talk about it
(01:39:48):
and see what kind of trouble we can get into.
It's the culture we days at three only on the
Black Star Network.
Speaker 6 (01:39:57):
Black Star Network, a real revolution there right now.
Speaker 3 (01:40:03):
I thank you for being the voice of black affarans,
a moment that we have.
Speaker 6 (01:40:07):
Now we have to keep this going.
Speaker 5 (01:40:09):
The video looks phenomenal.
Speaker 13 (01:40:11):
Differ between Black Star Network and black owned media and
something like seeing.
Speaker 15 (01:40:16):
N You can't be black owned media and be scared.
Speaker 6 (01:40:20):
It's time to be smart. Bring your eyeballs home, you dig.
Speaker 2 (01:40:28):
My name is Charlie Wilson, I'm.
Speaker 14 (01:40:30):
Sally Richard W.
Speaker 1 (01:40:31):
Gild and I'm dalking with you.
Speaker 2 (01:40:32):
Everybody.
Speaker 27 (01:40:33):
Just man Fred Hemmon and you're watching Roland Martin my
man unfiltered.
Speaker 22 (01:40:55):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (01:40:55):
The World Health Organization that says COVID is no longer
a global health emmerse, but the numbers are still real.
Here are the current stats when it comes to COVID
worldwide folks, we're talking about one hundred and six million,
seven hundred and ninety two thousand and fortune and seventy
four cases. You had one point one million deaths since
(01:41:20):
the pandemic began. Now, of course, the emergency is over,
but the virus still lingers. Joining me now is doctor
Jane Morgan, the executive director of Piedmont Healthcare Corporation's COVID
Task Force. Dot glad to have you. I mean, the
reality is, and I'll say this here probably look what
when I fly, I still and wear my mask as
(01:41:41):
there was a study that showed that they examine the
examine fecal matter from a number of planes. Ninety six
percent of what was tested COVID was present, so that
air circulating. I'm always wearing my mask there. But it's
interesting when I've gone to others, other outdoor events, we're
(01:42:02):
not as vigilant as we used to when it comes
to wearing masks and having protection. I don't actually see
hand sanitizer and a lot of places like we used to.
We used to be a heck of a lot more
vision about it. But as we've gotten further and further
away from twenty twenty one, things seem to be shifting.
Speaker 30 (01:42:24):
You know, I agree, and science has certainly been overridden
by a lot of other messages that have confused and
conflated the message coming from public health arenas and also
scientific experts like myself. And so people began to get tired,
more so not from the pandemic, but began to get
tired of trying to constantly figure out what they needed
(01:42:48):
to do today, What do they need to do on Wednesday?
Did it change from Friday? What does this mean now
we have a new variant? And then all of the
multiple messages, and unfortunately, as a scientific community, including the CDC,
we never did really get ahead of communication such that
people were really following sound science during communications. And so
(01:43:09):
you're right, we're in an endemic state. The virus has
not gone away, it certainly has dampened. We are in
a much better place. The majority of Americans have some
degree of immunity, either with vaccination or by contracting the virus. Unfortunately,
many people have contracted it over and over and over again,
which also lends to a sort of carelessness and an
(01:43:32):
increase of your risk of long COVID. So you're right here,
we are We're in a better place. But COVID has
not gone away, and we have about one thousand deaths
every week still here in the United States.
Speaker 5 (01:43:43):
So that's a lot of deaths.
Speaker 1 (01:43:47):
Look, what are other doctors saying, doctors and nurses, are
they frustrated with political leaders wanting to rush as quickly
as possible back folks like no, no more shut downs,
things along those lines. So what are your fellow colleagues saying.
Speaker 30 (01:44:08):
Yeah, you know, hospitals and physicians offices have always been
open to everyone, regardless of your political affiliation, including people
at the height of COVID who escheed science and science
deniers who then showed up in the emergency room sick
with COVID and risk infecting those of us who were
(01:44:30):
there and my colleagues and wanting help and really reaching
out to the hospital, which is what the hospital is,
the practical application of all the science that you are denying,
but willing get that point to accept treatment and accept
the latest therapies. We actually, you know, we take care
of everyone, so we don't ask what is your affiliation.
(01:44:52):
We take care of everyone, even though your decisions put
you in that predicament, and even though your decisions now
are risking the lives of our staff. We absolutely take
care of everyone. So yes, there has been a level
of frustration, a level of unbelievable maybe unbelievability with what
(01:45:13):
we were facing in the hospital and then walking right
outside of the hospital one or two blocks away and
seeing people, you know, gathering at events and unmasking. Meanwhile
back at the hospital reintubating people, and so it was
really certainly at different stages of the pandemic. It was
almost living in two different worlds, which can be very
very discouraging that you're spending your entire day at the
(01:45:36):
hospital managing and saving the lives of patients who are
sick with COVID, and then you lead outside of the
hospital setting and the world doesn't seem to be aware
of what's really happening.
Speaker 1 (01:45:47):
Questions from the panel Juliania first ark, thanks for your work.
Speaker 5 (01:45:52):
I really appreciate it.
Speaker 17 (01:45:55):
If COVID is not finished, we know you're talking about
the death work experience every week. What kind of precautions
so people take other than continuing.
Speaker 5 (01:46:05):
To wear a mask? Are there other precautions in terms
of larger gatherings, etc. Keeping social distance? What should people
be doing well?
Speaker 30 (01:46:13):
I think people should be pragmatic know who your social
circle is. If you're going into any type of event
or social event and you are unclear of what everyone's
vaccination or immune status is, then you just need to
use your decision making for what you're going to do.
Is it going to be a tightly, tightly packed event
(01:46:35):
where you literally are walking sideways to squeeze through people,
then you may want to consider a mask. Are people
going to be able to move and filter freely? And
so I think at this point, when we're in restaurants,
or we are aware we are in where we are
at tables that are placed apart from one another, you
don't necessarily need to wear a mask. We certainly are
(01:46:56):
in an endemic state. But there may be time when
you want to wear masks. So, for instance, if you're
in an airplane, you've seen it next to someone who's coughing,
or you're sitting behind someone who has a chronic call,
you may want to consider what you need to do
to protect yourself. Because this virus is still indemming. Hopefully,
hopefully it will go away, but it may not. It's
(01:47:18):
not consulting us, and it certainly can always evolve into
something else that could be more formidable.
Speaker 11 (01:47:26):
Om Congo, Doctor Morgan, My question is about long COVID.
You mentioned it earlier.
Speaker 18 (01:47:32):
I just feel as a lay person, I'm not hearing
much about any progress as it relates to solving this issue.
Are there any updates as it relates to that area?
Speaker 30 (01:47:41):
Such an excellent question. I was just talking about that
just yesterday with regard to all of these long COVID
cases that we're managing, and it's the plethora of them,
all different types of symptoms from mile to people who
really may end up being permanently disable and what are
we going to do about it? And what are the
(01:48:04):
combination of symptoms and problems that we see. So, for instance,
we know that if people got multiple infections, they're at
a greater risk of developing long COVID and also at
a greater risk of developing more severe symptoms. If their
disease progress was also more severe, they seem to be
(01:48:24):
at a greater risk of developing long COVID than if
they had a very mild disease process. Most people who
were vaccinated, if in fact they became unlucky enough to
also get COVID, generally had a mild course and it
does appear that vaccines, even if you contracted COVID, provided
some protection from long COVID. So you're right, we have
(01:48:47):
a lot to learn about this. This is still declaring itself.
It will be a disability issue here in the United States,
and right now, you're right, it is not getting the
visibility that it deserves.
Speaker 1 (01:49:01):
Bella, Yes, thank you.
Speaker 14 (01:49:04):
Do you think that it's a possibility that COVID can
become a major epidemic again?
Speaker 5 (01:49:11):
You know, I think we never say never. I hope not.
Speaker 30 (01:49:14):
I hope that we have really learned some hard lessons
because we learned them the hard way. I think Roland
was very clear, we had over a million people got
that's a tough lesson and if we choose to ignore that,
then you're right, history could repeat itself. And we certainly
have seen many of the.
Speaker 5 (01:49:34):
Missteps of the CDC.
Speaker 30 (01:49:35):
And to be clear, the CDC is a governmental agency
that was really designed for surveillance, for identification, for monitoring,
and not for rapid mass emergency response, and yet that
was what was required of it. And what we learned
is that a lot of its data gathering techniques then
(01:49:56):
were not appropriate. When we were in any emergency. They
have techniques that require time to gather data. They come
from multiple sources, from multiple different digital platforms, some not
digital platforms, some required approval, some didn't. It was all
of this disparate use, which worked when you are just surveiling,
(01:50:19):
but when we needed to respond, it doesn't work.
Speaker 5 (01:50:21):
So there are a lot of lessons learned.
Speaker 30 (01:50:22):
And I think absolutely we are vulnerable to another pandemic
if we don't get a handle on social media, if
we don't get a handle on messaging. And when I
say that, I mean that the messenger in a scientific
emergency needs to be Science needs to be the messenger,
and not all types of people who may be famous
(01:50:43):
or may have followers for whatever reason, those people start
to have the louder voices because they have the larger following,
but they have the least amount of experience and the
least amount of background and did quite a bit of damage.
Speaker 1 (01:50:56):
All right, then, well that we certainly appreciate its lot
for joining us. And again, folks, please remain vigilant because
COVID is still real. We appreciate it, all right, panel,
thanks a lot, Julian Pamela, I'm a congo. I appreciate
y'all joining us on today's show. Thank you so very much, folks.
