I was talking to my sister this morning because I
always got a story, like you said in the intro.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
The old one, old one, you know, she got a
funny story to old one, right, the old one that's
still old.

Speaker 5 (01:36):
At this point.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
Yeah, yeah, okay.

Speaker 4 (01:38):
But my sister was like, you know, we were talking
and I remember at the beginning of the pandemic, I
was twenty nine. I just turned thirty in that May,
so we the world stop around March and then May
I had just turned thirty. So I was talking to
my sister and I was like, I remember speaking to
you when you're always saying, oh back, you know, I'm

(02:00):
closer to forty.

Speaker 3 (02:00):
Sissy was turning.

Speaker 4 (02:03):
Four turn now thirty four at the time, and now
she's thirty. Now she's thirty nine.

Speaker 5 (02:09):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
So we were going back and forth, and I was like,
there are so many people who are embracing the fact
that they're so blessed to just age each year, and
I hear so many because I don't. There's nothing about
me that feels old. Everything about me feels grown. I
like the decision that I make where I'm like party

(02:31):
till God knows when, at whatever time, and now it's
my choice to do so or not or rest in
that band because resh it's good, right, And so.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
You know, I was telling her.

Speaker 4 (02:44):
I was like, now that you are a year from forty,
you're looking at everything like white people saying, white people saying,
you know, you know, being in this age is so old.
I said, you did that to yourself. Every year you
worried about being the next age. Every single year you
were saying, oh, I'm so closer to forty. At thirty three,
turning thirty four, you said you were closer than forty.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
Yeah, your life in that way, you're going to look back.

Speaker 4 (03:08):
There was a challenge that I posted in my stories.
It said post yourself in twenty seventeen, ugly or pretty, whatever,
And I posted myself in twenty seventeen, and I said, Wow,
I lived in that time. But to say that I
would go back to want to live those days, no,
I and those are great times. But then I was
looking at other things where I was like, wow, I

(03:29):
had so much body at dysmorphia in these photos, and
now your girl became a woman, and I'm not used
to having chest or you know, I'm still slim, I'm
still you know, tall, long legs, but I'm not used
to having so I'm looking at dang. I had so
much body dysmorphia here and where I was just like
trying to be something or whatever, and it was close

(03:51):
to like, girl, if you don't eat something at that time,
you know now like it's just you look back at
those times and so don't.

Speaker 3 (03:58):
Take away your years.

Speaker 4 (04:00):
Today, you were a moment today, I must want to
think about yourself, that's fine. But if you are in
that place where you're just like, ugh, I'm just never
gonna be this, I'm never pretty, I'm never this. And
then you get to a place where okay, you know,
you got some lines on your face, but you look
back at the days where you were just stressed out
about the wrong things on yourself and you're like, I
wish I can go back to that day. Tell that

(04:21):
girl she was beautiful. Tell that girl that though like
you are, you are youthful, you are young. When somebody
passes away at the age of like forty, they're.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
Saying, oh, he was so young, he was so young.
But to live in.

Speaker 4 (04:36):
The year of forty. You are just so old. Everything
hurts on you because you're old.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
You was drinking for two years. Stop, get yourself together.

Speaker 4 (04:46):
Put some water in your system, get on a.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Treadmill, stretch, stretch it out, breathe do the thing you
did to yourself die.

Speaker 1 (04:58):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (04:59):
As you age, things start to sag, things start to
do things whatever. But that you cannot blame everything for
the rest of the once you turn thirty, for the
rest of your.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
Life you old. No, you absolutely absolutely so. I just
said that to you know.

Speaker 4 (05:14):
Love where you at right now. Enjoy where you at
right now. There are some people who solange who you
talking about. Beyonta earlier, so long chat this thing that
she said where she couldn't even believe that she reached
I believe it was the age of thirty. She had
this anxiety that she lived through in her twenties that
she would never make it to the age of thirty. Okay,

(05:35):
So you get to live today. You live in all right,
you young, and you fun and do whatever works for you.
Get healthy, get your mind right. Stop focusing and putting
that just the the making yourself think that I am
tomorrow is the last day you know when the time
is now, right, he said, tomorrow is the last day
for me.

Speaker 3 (05:54):
I'm gonna turn. The forty is around the corner. I can't.
I just but you got forty to fifty, then you
got fifty to.

Speaker 4 (06:01):
Sixty, then you got to seventy, and then you got
seventy to eighty, and god, well when you got eighty
to ninety in white folks, this is not your territory
ninety two hundred.

Speaker 5 (06:10):
We'll back up, but no, it's not for real. Less
really think about it though.

Speaker 4 (06:16):
Then you I'll tell this to say, enjoy your life now.
If you can't fix something about where you are right now,
fix it, but do not make yourself feel like your life.

Speaker 3 (06:24):
I know the saying is life for short, but life
is also now you, I hope.

Speaker 4 (06:28):
In this morning, I said, you know, the sun came up,
and so did I, and that's just enough to just
sit right.

Speaker 3 (06:33):
There with it.

Speaker 4 (06:35):
That's it, man, Okay, And I just wanted to tell
y'all that this morning, I'm sorry.

Speaker 5 (06:41):
You s fuck on that.

Speaker 6 (06:42):
As somebody that's forty six about to be forty seven now,
I feel I definitely feel like, wait, I'm really not
getting older. I'm not that old, but you're right. We
used to always speaking like, man, I'm so old now, bro,
you even talking the best friend.

Speaker 5 (06:57):
Bro. We getting old like.

Speaker 6 (07:00):
Is just what we did with our bodies in our twenties.
It's catching up to us.

Speaker 5 (07:05):
That's all it is. That's it all it is.

Speaker 3 (07:08):
You can get healthy.

Speaker 4 (07:09):
I watched the man who was sixty two years old
say that he was not when he turned fifty.

Speaker 3 (07:14):
He just wasn't feeling like all the things that.

Speaker 4 (07:16):
You where you are right now, you do the things
that we did in our twenties. I am at the
place where I started undoing them at the beginning of
the pandemic, because baby, the way I was drinking and
the way things was happening to get out of my house,
but the way things happened that they happen in that time.
They want to see the shirt, Oh.

Speaker 3 (07:33):
Black men smile.

Speaker 5 (07:36):
I'm sorry, so.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
Fad she got like going on body.

Speaker 4 (07:45):
No, but I say that to say, you know, we
we must like you are where you are right now,
and it's such a beautiful tender space.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
Like everybody, we did.

Speaker 4 (07:56):
Things in our in our twenties or our thirties or
wherever we are now, where we have to undo. But
you gotta be okay with what undoing it. You gotta
be okay with the things that we learned that were
no good learning them?

Speaker 3 (08:08):
And what does that take? Time? And time you have
every time you wake up in the morning.

Speaker 4 (08:14):
So I was like, that is literally something that the
world wants to take away from us, make us feel
like you just gotta you. All you gotta do is work.
You don't give no time to your family, but you
gotta take care of them. I was looking at the
clip little Here I Go. I was looking at a
clip that that young man with the who's from South Africa.

(08:34):
He's half white, but he's real black. He's very Colin Kaepernick,
and he used to do the nightly show and he's
he makes funny jokes.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
Yeah, it's.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
None of us remember his name.

Speaker 4 (08:49):
I know, it's crazy. We haven't seen him in a
minute somebody. But he said, it's crazy how what they
did was bring us here, and black people specifically are
communities naturally, were people who created tribes with each other.

Speaker 3 (09:07):
We helped each other. It came free. We knew.

Speaker 4 (09:13):
That.

Speaker 3 (09:14):
I wish I know where that clip was.

Speaker 4 (09:15):
But he talked about how where you thank you so
much because I knew somebody was gonna get thank you.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
That's none of us.

Speaker 3 (09:24):
We couldn't remember that. It was so crazy and he done, Yeah,
we couldn't. But what happens is you know he was saying,
how we just were made to assist and help and
be like a village to each is.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
What we're doing.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
They saying, we trip it in the in the chat
room because remember his name.

Speaker 4 (09:45):
No I could when you somebody out of sid mind,
but focus your camera, focus your camera. But I say
this like it's true. Are we were created to literally
help each other for free? If your our families help
each other, we have the next person. But there are
stories documentation that talks about how when Christopher Columbus went

(10:10):
over to the Taino people over and what's now called Haiti,
the Hispaniola area, and what he did with the people
came and saw him and offered him things, what do
you need?

Speaker 3 (10:21):
And there was a language barrier.

Speaker 4 (10:22):
There were all kinds of things that were that you know,
what you would think in today's day in age as
to how they teach us to be with people, You know,
you would think they wouldn't even mess with them, gave
them all they had showed them like jewelry and things
and gave them and to share, right to share, and
he killed them right, slaughterly murdered them and brought slaves
over there. But it's what happens is and this is

(10:45):
the American way. They take away with people how to
work along with each other, help our communities, help people,
help mothers, help children, help people. You know, throughout the day,
the next door neighbor used to come over with a
pie that you could trust. The next door neighbor used
to come over and help the child when you couldn't
do it, or or the grandmother or the grandfather, or

(11:05):
that was a natural thing. And what they do is
break that away, break us out of those cycles. And
now we have to pay for those services. Now I
gotta pay for somebody to watch my kid. Now I
gotta pay for you know, this extra food, or now
I gotta pay for help. Right now, I gotta pay
for all of this stuff that used to be something
that we just used to do as a community as people,

(11:29):
and now you know, they try to take away, to
take that away from us. I think that's why we
also feel so age and so whatever, because the wisdom
and stuff, the recipes. They leave in all those spices
that the white folks was killing people over and they
never used.

Speaker 3 (11:45):
Right, we gotta hold.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
Jennif outed a whole people for some spices and don't
even put seasons.

Speaker 3 (11:53):
I never touched y'all never used.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
It's it's a good conflation.

Speaker 7 (12:00):
I love you guys.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
I mean, I guess my rant.

Speaker 4 (12:02):
I know it's too much. But have you liked and
have you shared? Have you subscribed to any one of
these channels? If you like what you're hearing? That was
just a little bit of the show of what's to
come on today's show, because baby, it's a lot that
happened during the wee and we got to get into
it before our good brother Bubba leaves out at twelve.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
But I just really, really really want.

Speaker 3 (12:21):
To go over some things. But before we do all that,
have you liked? Have you shared? Have you subscribed to
these channels? It must be all three?

Speaker 5 (12:27):
All three actually four?

Speaker 1 (12:30):
Yes, yeah, all three things, all four channels.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
Yeah, yeah, got twelve clicks to go gott.

Speaker 4 (12:37):
And come on back to mine, so go for real,
But honestly, no, that's my rant.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
Good guy, I ain't going to bed about three oclock

Speaker 2 (14:20):
Yeah, oh yeah, I guess I could jump in and
tell you about my week instead of letting dead air
Philly in my bad this video. That's my kicking in.
It's just another week in the grind. That's all I've
been doing is is just grinding away. So it was
a good week, you know, good fun family week, good
fun messing with mag online week and messing with Democrats

(14:43):
because I can't you know, they ain't doing too good
and around the world no more, uh, messing with Zionists. Oh,
it's been a productive week. Yeah it was good then, yeah, yeah,
it was good.

Speaker 5 (14:55):
Good.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
God made a lot of new enemies this week, you know.
So that's all.

Speaker 3 (14:59):
And what was topic that led you to this?

Speaker 2 (15:03):
No, just realize, you know, just just coming to terms
with how how evil some Democrats are, like they got
the devil in them, like they got the devil in
them at the level of mega. I used to during
the last election, they were always saying they Nancy Pelosi, Uh,
Nancy Pelosis of the world, the Jeff Hackeen, Jefferies of
the world. But really the one I'm talking about the

(15:24):
ones online though, the Democrats online.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
Like they they they just as bad as MAGA.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
Some of them so made a lot of new enemies
with them this week. They're like, oh, I thought you
I thought you were just a good old Democrat. No,
I just voted against Donald Trump.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
I don't mistake that.

Speaker 4 (15:42):
Yeah, I think people, you know, get it twisted. And
I know that there is this huge alliance that we
formed back in twenty sixteen as the.

Speaker 3 (15:53):
You know, younger millennial group or the.

Speaker 4 (15:55):
Fighters, or the resistance, the resistance, and did all of that,
and and and quickly seeing how the resistance wasn't resisting.
And it's actually when when I was actually just listen, look,
I was actually just listening to a song where it's
talking about resistance and it actually says the work can
get done.

Speaker 3 (16:16):
When you stop resisting.

Speaker 4 (16:18):
We weren't resisting the right the We were resisting each other.
When the ideology wasn't the same within the group, When
people wanted to center themselves more around a popular issue
than the real issue. That's when this whole Democrat alliance
that we had fell apart and became the issue. And

(16:40):
we see that often when we hear people like Nancy
Pelosi get up on a mic and discuss and say
out of her.

Speaker 3 (16:50):
Is it lips? I don't know what that is. Say
about the first three things together to say.

Speaker 4 (17:00):
At alligated Alcatraz, out of alligator all Schwitz.

Speaker 3 (17:04):
Is actually a distraction.

Speaker 2 (17:07):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
The other things that are happening are distraction. That said
hold on everything. That's no, you got that wrong sense
and you know why you got that wrong, because it's
never been on your radar, right right, a distraction.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
For the people down there suffering.

Speaker 4 (17:21):
Never you've been holding this seat since you since they
created it for you, since your whiteness got you blessed
into the door to hold this seat. That did you
really did nothing for I don't like when I see
people from that, you know, consider themselves liberal or whatever.
Just hold on to these people like their gods, like
they're like, oh, Nancy Pelosi, she wore that can take

(17:44):
cloth whist people.

Speaker 3 (17:47):
You know, it's just Nancy Pelosi.

Speaker 4 (17:49):
And Nancy Pelosi is always she got like six houses,
all her kids gonna be good, the kids kids gonna
be good. Every secret that's gone through the family, we
ain't never heard about it. And if we did, we
ain't ever care about it, because she comes to tell
you she ain't never cared about your problems, but she
want Donald Trump out because it's beef.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
That's it.

Speaker 3 (18:06):
That's it.

Speaker 4 (18:06):
But your issues were never really on the radar because
those are distractions. Them taking away stuff from poor people,
from marginalized groups, from children.

Speaker 3 (18:16):
That's just you know, that's just fluff.

Speaker 4 (18:18):
But that's actually no, they're doing the work that they
that they.

Speaker 3 (18:22):
Promised us they would do. It's not just fluff.

Speaker 4 (18:25):
It's actually what they projected and projective. Remember then they're
doing and they've done each thing. So Nancy Pelosi, for you.

Speaker 3 (18:34):
To come home with the dentss and people with.

Speaker 4 (18:38):
Health care, you got to keep you alive this long
to tell the other things that are happening.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
It's just distraction, absolutely not.

Speaker 4 (18:46):
That's because it's never been on your radar and it's
nothing that you ever cared about. And it's actually bigger,
it's a bigger concern. But this is the way that
she thinks and the way that a lot of other
people who are mostly non melanated think, and the group
the liberals or you know, the left, I should say,
and in totality, so yes.

Speaker 2 (19:07):
And that said thing like, uh, somebody who took me
up on the paper clips? He said, what are those lips?

Speaker 8 (19:13):
Now?

Speaker 1 (19:14):
Those paper clips?

Speaker 2 (19:17):
Rod said, the Democrat establishment is complicit and they are
for real, they like really really really, Jonathan said, Ben
is finding out about Blue Maggot. And you know what
it is is is they're showing that they asked is
a whole lot more. You know what I've come to
terms with, y'all. I just this is certain things I'm
gonna have to cuss about. I just I'm just I've
been praying to.

Speaker 1 (19:37):
The Lord about it.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
I've been I've been reading scripture on it, and there's
spading examples and real no, no, no, there's plenty of
scriptures in the Bible that where the prophets and Jesus
and all the other folks they actually did use language
that was profane at the time, like.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
No, no, another. It's like twenty scriptures about it.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
So like I don't take you know, I never take
one scripture like if it's a whole set, but the
whole thing is like Blue Maga.

Speaker 1 (20:02):
They are really showing it behind this week, and they're
showing it themselves to be as racist as Maga when
it comes to Muslims when it comes to progressives, when
it comes to the mayor, the guy running for mayor,
Zoran Mandanmi Mandanni, they are just as and they lie

(20:27):
just as much as Maga. They flip and they distort
the truth just as much as Maga. Right, they are
intentionally ignorant just as much as Maga when they want
to fight.

Speaker 2 (20:42):
But not why says not when they fight in Maga.
They don't do it when they fight Maga. They only
do it when they fight people who are actually trying
to do something to help folks. So, you know, I
put up with them. I put up with them in
twenty twenty because I was like, we gotta stop Donald Trump.
I put up with them in twenty twenty four because
it was like, we gotta stop Donald Trump. But at
this point, it's like, what's the point of stopping Donald Trump.

(21:03):
Y'all gonna go out there and do the same damn things. Yeah,
so anyway, anyway, let's let me let me, let me
get up these pictures.

Speaker 1 (21:09):

Speaker 4 (21:47):
It was a movie, and you had to say, I've
never seen anything black girls in my life.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
Okay, here's that. Here's the thing she's talking about. This
is the trust.

Speaker 8 (22:03):
It's all off the subject of what they're doing harmful
to the voice the little needs of the American people.

Speaker 9 (22:13):
I want to make sure I understand what you mean
when you say distraction.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
Do you think that.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
Pambond one thing I don't like about Instagram? You can't
just start over from.

Speaker 8 (22:22):
Scene or Alcatraz. It's all off the subject of what
they're doing with this budget that is harmful to the
kitchen table meeting the kitchen table needs of the American people.

Speaker 9 (22:35):
I want to make sure I understand what you mean
when you say distraction. Do you think that Pambondi going
to Alcatraz is meant potentially as a distraction from Epstein,
which has not gone over well at all with the
president's base.

Speaker 8 (22:49):
No, I think they're both distractions.

Speaker 3 (22:54):
No, listen to me.

Speaker 4 (22:56):
So the epstein is the things that is a distraction,
the alligat it, she said.

Speaker 3 (23:01):
She was clear to say no, hefa.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
I said, I said what I said.

Speaker 3 (23:06):
And if you like, why are you not getting that?
I said?

Speaker 4 (23:08):
And she said, this was a moment for her to clarify. Listen,
the white lady was white signaling to white lady. This
lady said, girl, is that what you meant? I just
want to go back because they're gonna clip it. They
gonna clip this. So she said, yes, that's what I said.
And so the fifteen year old that was sent over

(23:29):
to Alligator Alcatraz, okay, because there was there was one
that was sent over there as well to the for
a day.

Speaker 3 (23:36):
No kind of Ah, that's.

Speaker 4 (23:39):
Not that's not her business, she said, that's not my
that's that that's that all that. We shouldn't even be
focused on the moment. You know how we think that
it's only Republicans follow directions, and when they are at
of order, they still come right back into they come
back and sing Democratic Party. People who believe in Democrats,
people can come themselves. Left people themselves.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
You know, liberals once there's a there is a.

Speaker 4 (24:04):
Group of them, when they have like a bat signal
from people like Nancy Pelosi do to say, you know what,
alligator Alcatraz is actually a distraction.

Speaker 3 (24:15):
A distract.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
I didn't think about it that way.

Speaker 4 (24:17):
We should not even be focused on that when you
know children are being brought to their fifteen year old
boy without a criminal record was sent over to the
concentration camp.

Speaker 1 (24:33):
Mhmm.

Speaker 2 (24:35):
Okay, is it okay for us now to call an
alligator all stitch? Because I you know, when I came up.

Speaker 3 (24:39):
With I think it's like a little you know, but yes,
it's it's it's call it that, right.

Speaker 2 (24:44):
You know when I thought of it, I thought of
it about two three weeks ago and I mentioned it,
and I was like, I bet I.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
Said that everybody's calling that.

Speaker 2 (24:50):
They don't call me anti semitic. They love calling me
anti semitic.

Speaker 4 (24:53):
No, well, everybody's calling it that, but they're they're correcting
me and saying that's what it is because it is
a concentration camp.

Speaker 3 (24:58):
I don't care.

Speaker 4 (24:59):
If if we define it it is mirroring a concentration camp.

Speaker 3 (25:04):
Donald Trump, it says that his whole idol is Hitler, right,
we know it.

Speaker 4 (25:10):
He mentions it, he talks about some of the things
that you can take that are all right, and he
wants to be a dictator so bad, so why not this.

Speaker 5 (25:17):
Is just doing.

Speaker 2 (25:18):
But before you run this clip, though, let me just
say this real quick because because here's the thing that
gets me about what Nancy Pelosi said about this being
a distraction. The thing is is that they are literally doing.
They are It's done now. They the leadership of the
Democratic Party, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, all of

(25:40):
them literally did zilch nothing to stop that bill. They
had the power to grind it to a halt. They
may not have been able to stop it indefinitely, but
they literally did nothing. If you look at what Maga
did to block and they weren't Magga time, they were

(26:00):
the Tea Party, it was a Republican party. What they
did to block Obama every year of his eight years.
When you look what they did to block and slow
down Joe Biden, Democrats have done nothing. So Nancy, please
tell me if this is a distraction that means you
want everyone to focus on the bill. But why should

(26:21):
we focus on the bill when you people who had
ability to slow that thing to a halt did absolutely nothing.

Speaker 1 (26:27):
What is it? What is it that they want us
to do?

Speaker 2 (26:30):
They really just want us running around without any sense
of direction and purpose to bring critique and change to
the system. Because he doesn't want us to focus on
the bill, but they're not doing anything to stop the bill.
She doesn't want us to focus on or rather she
wants us to focus on the bill, but they're doing
nothing to stop it. They don't want us to focus
on Epstein. They don't want us to focus on Alcatraz,
I mean on Oustitch. What is it that they want

(26:53):
They want us to literally sit back and watch democrats
let Republicans turn this into Nazi Germany.

Speaker 1 (27:01):
That's what democrats want us to do.

Speaker 4 (27:03):
Yes, that's exactly what it is. And if somebody has
a problem with us calling it what it is, there's the.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
Dough m.

Speaker 4 (27:13):
Because I'm not I'm not playing with anybody anymore. How
I said, you know what, I'm not playing with anybody today, tomorrow,
or the next day with this anymore. I'm not sitting
with white folks and playing like hey, yeah this is
I'm not.

Speaker 3 (27:30):
Sitting with black people. Maybe I'm not sitting with anybody.

Speaker 4 (27:34):
I don't care who are if you do not want
to call this what it is, just because you need
to stay on the.

Speaker 1 (27:41):
Good side of the Democratic Party good side.

Speaker 4 (27:44):
Or say on the fence, or not not make this
such a you know me, you know you're you can't
make it about age. You can't think it about the
fact that you know they are here on a temporary
protected status. I mean, you know, like they are taking
some of the yoah, go get out of my face,
because it's.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
The same thing for me, and with with with with
with these you know who I can't stand even more though,
I mean, I'm gonna keeping let me take this person
down again.

Speaker 1 (28:11):
Black Zionist m hmm.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Black folks who are supporting Benjamin and y'allhoo and Israel
and what they're doing in Gaza, y'all are some disgusting niggas.

Speaker 1 (28:20):
Y'all are like this high key some really disgusting because
you are literally playing the game of white supremacy, the
language of white supremacy, the lies and the distortion of
white supremacy in order to justify killing babies in Gaza.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Y'all are worst than blue maga. Y'all are worse than
white maga. Red maga, y'all are some real demons dressed
in black skin.

Speaker 1 (28:40):
What are we doing here? Tip for none of them?

Speaker 4 (28:45):
Sorry, they gotta hear it, they gotta hear it, they
gotta they gotta feel it. I'm so sick of sitting
beside him, and that that's why I don't go on
those you know, people don't they don't see me on
them shows.

Speaker 3 (29:02):
No more with the people because what happens?

Speaker 4 (29:05):
Did you sit there and you have to hear them,
you debate them, but it's just like, uh, at the
end of it's like, all right, guys, No, I don't
want to sit with anybody who was thinking or being
a part of the problem and pushing it, because that's
why we are where we are today.

Speaker 3 (29:22):
It is the worst that it's been in a very
long time.

Speaker 4 (29:25):
So to go back, yes, all the time, I'm gonna
mention the fact that when it comes to immigration, it's
never been America's priority for anything, So they've always been
last on the list. So when you think about people
like Nancy Pelosi opening your mouth to say things like
this and then to turn around because again, sex offenders
and rapists and stuff they're in. They're all up and
through politics. It doesn't reserve itself to Republicans.

Speaker 3 (29:47):
So there's been a lot of covering up on both
sides of the situation, if you want to talk about that.

Speaker 4 (29:52):
So this like this is coming from somebody who's probably
seen things covered up and other people that they know
that may not only be on republic inside or whatever
are named on the Democratic side.

Speaker 3 (30:03):
People can get hurt, people can get all things will
be exposed.

Speaker 4 (30:07):
So to get on there and be clear and double
down that this was a distraction Epstein files, which can
get Donald Trump something, So we can we can, we
can have something of the sort that will give us
something other than the kinkles they posted. It can give
us something right, showing us that Donald Trump is exactly
who we believe he is and it's on paper and

(30:29):
it's on this instead of them hiding it. It will
be something for us. But for her saying, oh no,
it's just a distraction, We babby, what what we're gonna
focus on.

Speaker 3 (30:35):
Beloved, Because you ain't you ain't said nothing by that bill.
Mm hmm huh.

Speaker 1 (30:41):
You stop the bill.

Speaker 7 (30:44):
Nothing to stop the bill.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
This negro king Jeffries is out here doing glamour shots
and him posting up on the fence with his little chain.

Speaker 3 (30:55):
But I saw that it was the start that on
the side because he was trying to put them hips in.

Speaker 5 (31:00):
Back up.

Speaker 6 (31:01):
Okay, I gotta get I gotta get that picture, please please.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
Because it was on the side because he tried to
put the hip in because baby, he might be a
little wide.

Speaker 3 (31:13):
And that's where the lines go. When you start going
on the other side, you get rid. You can't get rid.

Speaker 5 (31:22):
And he's done so many of them, the tricks in
the train of all the fake photos.

Speaker 3 (31:30):
You gotta walk back ground.

Speaker 8 (31:32):
You didn't.

Speaker 3 (31:33):
You can't just added your hip, I got your shadow
because the shadows.

Speaker 7 (31:39):
You still wide. Loaded back.

Speaker 3 (31:47):
The dragon.

Speaker 7 (31:48):
Okay wait, and they said he photoshopped it.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
Hey go hey, I know his ad.

Speaker 2 (32:00):
Y'all forgive me. I don't pay for premium. Bitty boy,
somebody want to give me the past wordligible?

Speaker 7 (32:04):
Uh here he is? What are we doing, bro? Look
look at it?

Speaker 3 (32:11):
Okay, okay, what are you doing now? Picture is he
leaning into the He's leaning back.

Speaker 2 (32:21):
A look at the It's like a warp time space
warp continued it's like a wormhold.

Speaker 7 (32:26):
Black hole right there about his yes on one, Like, wait,
what's that? God, what he's busy?

Speaker 1 (32:38):
Listen, he did that himself. He did that himself because
he would be I would have to fire if I
hire somebody and they did that.

Speaker 2 (32:44):
I mean, but he's doing this, he's doing this instead
of stopping. Let me tell you, I got I got
some I'm dropping something today. Uh it's just an infographic
because I'm tired of trying to do whole videos and
whole articles. I'm just like, I'm just gonna put out
these infographics. I did one on Zionism yesterday, y'all go
get it. It shows you every single libby and told
by Zionism, right. But today I'm dropping one that shows

(33:04):
you everything the Republican Party did to oppose Donald Trump,
I mean, to oppose Barack Obama and Joe Biden when
they were in the minority.

Speaker 1 (33:12):
Because here's what these raggedy blue magas are saying, Oh,
we're in the minority, we can't what do we expect
from Hackeen Jeffries. They're in the minority, they can't do anything.

Speaker 2 (33:21):
Y'all are just dumb enough to believe that y'all either
dumb enough to believe that, or y'all are complicit and
manipulative and.

Speaker 1 (33:28):
Evil just like these Democrats are.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
Because if you just remember just five years ago, not
even five years ago, just remember back to Joe Biden's term.
When Republicans are in the minority, they shut shit down.
They stop stuff from getting accomplished. They would not allow
a single one of Barack Obama's federal appointee judge appointees
to get through. They stopped us from they stopped Barack

(33:53):
Obama from getting a Supreme Court pick for almost a
whole year, and they were in the minority. Sit here
and tell us about what the Democrats can't do to
stop this Republican fascism from coming because we saw Republicans
do it.

Speaker 3 (34:08):
I'm so tired of this.

Speaker 1 (34:09):
I'm sorry. I'm Rebecca to pull me out.

Speaker 3 (34:13):
Because we gotta, we gotta, you know, all skinned folk.

Speaker 1 (34:20):
Yeah here doing photoshops, photo shoot and photoshop.

Speaker 4 (34:24):
Because the booty was bootying and he's like, nah, baby,
I'm in the gym, and it's like, no, you weren't
with us shooting in the gym, and we can see
that because you have the photoshop. The wagon narrative, it's
it's it's we have to be very very intentional about
we have to be very intentional about making sure that

(34:47):
we stand on this side of it. Because Hakem was
put in by us, and we were considered, we were
we were believing that it was for us.

Speaker 3 (34:55):
But even in these moments, we see and we know
and we have to all out even I know it sucks.

Speaker 4 (35:03):
But when we saw the line when it was for
Mayor Eric Adams and it was mostly black people who
are just going because the person is black. Now I
am rooting for everybody black. But again we talked about this,
there's an asterisk there everybody black. However, we y'all know
what the black person. Y'all know the black person I'm
talking about, y'all. Like in the Bible, all them things

(35:25):
do not Now for Jesus applies to people, but he
also has asterisk.

Speaker 3 (35:28):
He said. Now, I love all of.

Speaker 5 (35:30):
Y'all, but some'll go to hell matter.

Speaker 7 (35:34):
I love you right up in there too.

Speaker 3 (35:36):
I hate the sin. I don't hate you. You know
a lot of people want to remix and say.

Speaker 4 (35:40):
Things like he he knows my heart, he knows my heart. Well, girl, listen,
you gotta work, you gotta change. He talks about changing,
and all the same thing that we have to apply.
If you are a believer, or if you are somebody
who believes in the universe, or if somebody believes in astrology,
it all is the You got to make sure, like

(36:02):
the bad thing, the bad apple, the thing, they will rot.

Speaker 3 (36:06):
And it will mess up everything. We can't just say
he's our.

Speaker 4 (36:09):
Good representation within the party because he's a black person,
we should not speak against them, or we can't just say,
you know, this is our talking head and while they
aren't the best, they're the only black person in that
space that can really speak for us.

Speaker 3 (36:21):
No, get yo, get up and get out of it.

Speaker 1 (36:23):
Get get these these sorry people, get them out the paint.

Speaker 2 (36:29):
Because here's the thing, like, some of us are really
serious about opposing MAGA and fascism. Some of us will
really put our lives on the line to stop these
fascists from getting into power. And then though some of
us are out here doing photoshops and photo shoots, like
what are we doing?

Speaker 1 (36:43):
What are we doing? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (36:44):
Are we?

Speaker 2 (36:45):
And here's the thing everybody's always tweeting, Kamala hairs is right,
Kamla try to warn you. She was right, She did
try to warn you, and I voted for her, and
I'll vote for her again, but not now. One of
these niggas is out here doing and carrying themselves and
governing them themselves accordingly. If Kamala Harris was right about
Maga beeing fascist, then why isn't Hakeeen Jeffries and Chuck

(37:06):
Schumer doing everything in their power to stop them?

Speaker 1 (37:08):
Instead I hear doing performances.

Speaker 3 (37:11):
Yep, stop stop stop shucking and driving.

Speaker 4 (37:15):
First of all, before you know what, Ben, because you
done jumped over here, you might as well what did
let the people know what Haqeen Jeffries did?

Speaker 7 (37:23):
And why did?

Speaker 3 (37:23):
Why are we mad at him because.

Speaker 5 (37:25):
He did a speech?

Speaker 1 (37:26):
That's it.

Speaker 3 (37:27):
He did what he's saying his speech.

Speaker 4 (37:28):
Because people were going for it at first, because that's
how we are fickle. And then suddenly it's the same
effect that Corey Booker.

Speaker 2 (37:36):
Yes, yes, yes, so yeah, hell no no, no, you
know you just you just nailed it right, So everybody
got excited about it, and I even supported Corey book
on the little speech.

Speaker 1 (37:46):
But I knew, I knew in my hair I did.

Speaker 2 (37:49):
It wasn't even an actual filibuster. A filibuster speech is
meant to prevent a piece of legislation from actually progressing
or getting voted on.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
He didn't do that.

Speaker 2 (38:00):
He was a Hikeem Jeffries, or rather Corey Booker wasn't
even opposing an actual bill.

Speaker 1 (38:04):
It was a stray performance. Then Hakeem Jeffries took his
ability as a leader in the party, a leader in
the Congress, and they have the right to speak as
long as they want to. Now, it's not the same
as a filibuster, but it is something that can delay.
It can delay, it can delay. He did it for
a coup out eight hours. Good job, but it wasn't

(38:25):
an actual opposition or to prevent the bill from passing.
He didn't use any actual procedural techniques. He didn't rally
his troops, and they did not call for as many
amendments as possible. One thing that they could do. Here's
one thing they can tangibly do. Throw in as many
an infinite number of amendments. What does that have to do?

(38:46):
That means that every single amendment has to be debated
and voted upon. You know what Republicans did when Barack
Obama was in office.

Speaker 2 (38:53):
They did not stop with adding amendments to every single
bill to the point where not a single bill could
get passed.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
They added amendment after amendment after amendment. Democrats didn't do
any of the procedural tools at their disposal to stop
MAGA and this bill that they just used to get
rid of, not just Medicaid and get rid of PBS,
to get rid of what's the other one, PBS and
NPR right there.

Speaker 4 (39:21):
They did it in the in the they did it
like an apple bill, right, like a bill that comes
like a thief in the night.

Speaker 7 (39:29):
On your phone.

Speaker 4 (39:30):
And then people was like you, like last night, for real,
they did something. They did it, and like while people
were sleep. And at that the Lord woke me up
at my.

Speaker 3 (39:38):
Sleep and he said, look at your phone, look at
that notification.

Speaker 4 (39:40):
And I said, wow, this just goes to show you
while he's doing all of this other stuff, all the
promise that the little promise that he made to give
the people nine billion one nine points something nine point
eight billion. He said, you know that was a promise,
and it is rare. It is rare for this to happen,
where they already promised you some money right and allocate

(40:02):
it for them the reverse and say, you know what, that.

Speaker 3 (40:04):
Little money, you ain't getting it.

Speaker 4 (40:08):
We gotta we're gonna change it up. But I know,
we said, but now you're gonna get a portion of it.
And it's all because Donald Trump wants to reduce any
anything that is liberal, that is free.

Speaker 3 (40:21):
He doesn't want any of those teachings. So it's took.
It's to have control over it, and and and and
and we know.

Speaker 4 (40:27):
And in growing up, my household cable cause my parents
worked hard the immigrants, but some of some of my
friend's household did not have cable.

Speaker 3 (40:35):
And I would go over there and watch PPS and
stuff with them. I knew those communities.

Speaker 4 (40:40):
Some of them did not have the ability, but they
had PBS. They had all the other channels that came
on for free so that they can stay in the know.
And and I actually love what we watched on PBS
and how we learned.

Speaker 5 (40:52):
And all those.

Speaker 4 (40:56):
For me, and it's not Captain Planet to Magic School
Bus and the those used to come on them extra
channels that you would get. You had the little antennas
right or when you used which is a hanger and
you twist it up and you put it in that
little piece and in the t.

Speaker 3 (41:13):
Just the right way and you get.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
You Arthur, come on, hang on, hang on, hang on,
I gonna do you want I'm gonna do you one better.
This is a whole different category, but used to be.

Speaker 4 (41:23):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (41:24):
When you have you have the cable box connected to
it and you pass up go like past HBO and
you don't have a subscription to a b o HBO,
you just change your channel back one and then refocused
the little y'all.

Speaker 1 (41:35):
Remember that the black and white TVs where you do
the dow.

Speaker 7 (41:37):
And justin I wasn't in that.

Speaker 3 (41:40):
That wasn't my people, but it was, but it.

Speaker 1 (41:43):
Was that was generation for you man. I have hacked
so many so we used to watch for free HBO
for real.

Speaker 6 (41:51):
We used to have a little filter thing that you
can put on the back of TV and get all
the channels.

Speaker 2 (41:56):
But here's and here's the reason we have to we
have no choice but to go after democrats as well,
is because democrats are literally helping Republicans. I was on
Roland Martin last week and Roland was trying to figure
out He was like, he was like, you know what
is HAKEM. Jeffrey's doing. Same guy on the screen. I

(42:18):
was like, oh, you know, Maha mind, I'm listening to him.
I'm like, oh, you're gonna go after Hakem.

Speaker 1 (42:22):
And he laid out a case.

Speaker 2 (42:23):
He was like, Hakem has made steps that are the
most inefficient, illogical steps that could be made if you're
serious about fighting MAGA.

Speaker 1 (42:32):
So Roland was making the case. So I just went
a little bit step further.

Speaker 2 (42:35):
I said at this point, though, like, we can't call
it ignorance, we can't call it incompetence. You don't get
as high as Hakeem Jeffries, you don't get as high
as Nancy Pelosi, you don't get as high as Chuck
Schumer and be incompetent. So if it's not incompetence, it
means they're complicit. And I just said, straight up, I said,
maybe the fact, maybe the truth is is Hakeem Jeffries
doesn't want to stop MAGA. And I think that's what

(42:56):
we got to really think about.

Speaker 3 (43:00):
That's exactly what it is.

Speaker 4 (43:01):
Ben. These people don't want to stop MAGA because there's
something in it for them. They don't want to lose
their seats. So you don't want to challenge when you
miss Corey missus Corey. She challenged, she went against the grain,
and she lost her spot when she spoke up. A

(43:21):
lot of them are afraid to do so because they
don't want to lose their spot. You gotta play it safe,
because it is politics at the end of the day.
But the leadership that does something a little different, that
might go against the grain, has to suffer the possible
consequence of losing their position. And a lot of them

(43:42):
would rather bite the bullet, not for you, but for
their own self, for their own family, for what benefits them,
even though we chose them to be our leader, to
sacrifice for us, and we don't see a lot of
that these So Hakeem is one of the people who
came on, you know, riding, riding the whole thing, the

(44:05):
coattail of vote black, mm, vote black because the crack
is whack, Rebecca, are doing it because the crack is whack. Yeah,
but before we get to before I keep going, I know, Bubba,
you gotta get here.

Speaker 3 (45:03):
All right, y'all, but we gotta get off that train.

Speaker 4 (45:07):
Bro, we gotta, we gotta, we have to get off
that midnight train to Georgia.

Speaker 3 (45:12):
I really want to wake up. I want to.

Speaker 7 (45:15):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (45:15):
I don't, I don't want us. We can.

Speaker 1 (45:19):
We have to.

Speaker 4 (45:20):
We're sacrificing right now. I can't go nowhere. I can't
afford to go anywhere. This what's happening is not something
that is like, oh, it's gonna be what what happened
now is gonna affect us.

Speaker 3 (45:32):
You know, probably three years or four years, we've got
some time.

Speaker 4 (45:36):
No, it is an immediate response, an immediate reaction from
what he did. It's immediately affecting people's lives right now.
There's this big trend right now of healthcare workers being
fired from jobs, huge trend being fired from jobs, and
you know, we need some health care workers. Where it's

(45:56):
actually trending so much so that they say in just
two years, in just two years, so many hospitals will
be shutting down because they need to train other people
for lesser pay. But the people that they're bringing in
are not knowledgeable. And the people that were already there

(46:16):
that they fired to get the people with lesser pay
are the ones that they're calling back. This is true stories,
true accounts. They're calling them back to come and train
because they let so many people go and no one
was there to train, just so they can pay these
people less. We're seeing this where there's an influx of

(46:41):
Now they put back medical bills on your credit school score.

Speaker 3 (46:45):
Yeah, you ain't gonna be able to buy no house.
You ain't gonna be able to buy no call.

Speaker 4 (46:52):
And if you do, you'll be paying. We know because
we know people leaving a lot thirty percent APR. We
know that, Well, you gotta feed your kid, but you
need to you gotta get the car. You got to
get the car that actually has one hundred thousand miles
or thirty percent APR just to get your kid too
in from the sacrifices that were already making that are

(47:13):
we had. We got a little softening from from just
the little help that we've gotten throughout the years that
we fought for. Where they threw us a bread crumb,
they snatched that back. We have nothing nothing, So go ahead, Ben, Sorry.

Speaker 2 (47:29):
No, I just but see this is why I'm becoming
a really strong advocate for us to fundamentally change how
we perceive. Let me give you a really quick scenario.
When I when I was like seventeen eighteen nineteen. I
can't remember exactly our old my sisters nor maybe I
was sixteen because my sister, no, I forget, it doesn't matter.
My sisters were graduating college, and they all went to

(47:51):
college at the same time. One graduated early, one, two
of them graduated early. Whatever the case, they end up
graduating on the same day. And so they were considering
where do we move, you know, should we get an
apartment or do we move back in with our parents,
or do we rent our parents' house? And they insisted,
love them not knocking on my sisters, because everybody has
this mindset.

Speaker 1 (48:12):
I had it for a minute too.

Speaker 2 (48:13):
They insisted that they didn't want to live or rent
from their parents. Right in order to go out and
get their own place. Everybody has to get their own place.
Then everybody has to get their own car. Then everybody
has to have all of these these trimmings of society
that cost that takes, that makes us nothing but consumers.

(48:34):
And when you're in that mindset, which everybody just I
mean most of America, I'd probably say ninety percent of
America lives like that. And then they're depending on that
credit score though, right when we become hyper sensitive to
every change that's made. If the government decides to put
medical medical bills back on your insurance, then all of

(48:55):
a sudden, you do get that thirty percent APR on
your car, on your home, and you were in the
financial strength for the rest of your life. This is
why I assist we got to change. We got to
absolutely start consolidating. If you can live with family, live
with family, if you can live with community, live with community,
if your community can live off of one car instead
of everybody in that like seven different cars, when y'all

(49:16):
could get over with two, Like, if we don't start
living like that, we're gonna always be lambs to the
slaughter for this machine, because it's designed to kill us
and crush us and take everything from us. And so
as long as we are living in a mindset where
we have to consume at the level that they tell
us and that they advertise to us to consume, then

(49:36):
we're gonna always be praying victim to whatever decisions they make.

Speaker 4 (49:40):
No, I agree, but Ben, I don't want to go
back to the strip club. I shouldn't even have to
at this age of mine. Right, I got two degrees.
I owe so much, not got three degrees. I was
so little, sound like that lady from the show, But
I got three degrees. I was people so much money, right,
And I also went back and got education for something else,
to get a better job. And I'm still and had

(50:00):
to pay for that, and still right, every single time
I think I'm gonna be free, they told me if
I went to school that I would be able to
afford just my own life, my own individual life. Growing
up in an immigrant household.

Speaker 3 (50:11):
Ain't for the week. You get fat, you get fed
three times a day.

Speaker 4 (50:15):
You got your own bedroom, miss, not yours, No matter
how what age you are, they are busting wide. They
busting in, right, you like all that nothing. So my
independence is something that I take really serious. I want
that for me, But I should not be where I'm
looking at white kids who have.

Speaker 3 (50:31):
To do nothing in this world.

Speaker 4 (50:33):
They don't gotta go nothing there, they ain't doing nothing,
but they can get their own housing, they can do
whatever they can get on TikTok and immediately just for
being white. Yeah, the algorithm pushes them out and pays
them and does whatever they They can go into a
job and immediately because they're white, just be considered for
the position.

Speaker 3 (50:51):
It doesn't matter, right, it should I shouldn't. I shouldn't
have to be.

Speaker 4 (50:55):
In that in that space where I gotta go back
to my mama house. But I do understand what you're saying.
It goes back to what I was saying.

Speaker 3 (51:01):
In the beginning.

Speaker 4 (51:02):
They have made it so that we look at consolidating
or getting the help that we need as you having
to live like that forever, and that it needs to
come with the price when your family is willing to
take you in while you're going through trouble for free
and you're able to get back on your feet.

Speaker 3 (51:21):
But this society has made us believe. And that's why
your sisters went through. They went with the idea of
all right, I got to do my own thing.

Speaker 2 (51:28):
And that was in the two thousands too, That's when
everybody was trying to get everything on their own. That
was like, that was That's how they had trained us,
That's how they advertised to us, that's how they put
it on television, like we desire what they show us
and what they give us when we don't really think
about it. But here's the thing, Rebecca, you and I
tell people this all the time, like what does it
mean to be successful in an evil system? What does

(51:49):
it mean to be successful and to have what you
want in an evil, evil system? This system is designed
Cedric Johnson, to believe, I keep getting his it might
be Cedric Robinson. Somebody in the chat room, please help
me as a Cedriac Johnson of Cedric Robinson who came
up with racial capitalism. This globe not just America. This
globe is centered on racial capitalism. It is designed expressly

(52:12):
to the benefit of white people, white capitalism, European descent.
That's why white folks, and this is why we tell
folks you know, who are on our side and progressives
and all those people allies to you. Got to understand
your privilege. Everything that you said is absolutely true, Rebecca,
But there's almost nothing that we can do to change

(52:33):
that in that system. We have to opt out, we
have to refuse to participate in that system. And in
every way we can choose to refuse, little by little,
Like I told my brother, like he has a wonderful
job working for one of the biggest computer companies in
the world, right and still you know, it's still like
he's in that grind of consumerism and got to keep

(52:55):
working all that kind of thing. And I said, just
refuse to buy the next thing. If there's something that
comes across your radar that you want, refuse to buy it.
That's a win, and then refuse to buy something else.
Live on what you can live off of, Like get
your consumption down to bare give it to not not
even within your means, live below your means, go to subsistence.

Speaker 1 (53:18):
Food and shelter. If food and.

Speaker 2 (53:22):
Shelter, If we as black people and people who are
tied or capitalism in general, if we don't get ourselves
and teach ourselves how to be satisfied with the bare
minimum because everything above that is what they make a
profit off of.

Speaker 1 (53:36):
Everything above that is what they take from us.

Speaker 2 (53:38):
So we gotta we gotta refuse and just kind of
opt out and say I'm not And of course I
had to learn. I learned to live like that because
we lost everything for a minute, right, We lost everything.

Speaker 1 (53:47):
For a good while.

Speaker 2 (53:48):
And in that loss, I was like, you know what,
I don't need. I haven't had a phone in a year.
I'm not gonna have a phone. I'm gonna share this
phone with my wife, which means I'm have to live
extremely right.

Speaker 4 (53:58):
You have a bar, Right, it's crazy. We have a
partner where you can make those decisions with him. Thank god,
it's your partner who is.

Speaker 3 (54:05):
Ready to ride with you.

Speaker 5 (54:07):
Right.

Speaker 1 (54:07):
But we extended like we extended it. We created it
into a little community.

Speaker 2 (54:12):
Like for a minute there, we didn't have a car, right,
and so we had someone in our community who let
us use their car.

Speaker 1 (54:19):
And then when we got our car, they lost their car.
And you know what, we let them use our car
like like clockwork, Like whenever we didn't need it, y'all
use it. They kept gasing it. We kept it running together.
Like I think if we don't.

Speaker 2 (54:31):
And that's the nature of how civilizations that existed before
racial capitalism, that's the nature of how civilizations have existed
since the beginning of time. And we're living in a
period that is just completely I'm just gonna keep talking
to you each camera back up. We live in a
period that is the exact opposite of what is necessary

(54:53):
for us to thrive. And then even in that, it's
a place of peace, it's a place of community, like
living and being and having everything on your own. Like
how many millions of people live in the cities and
have no community. Hell, not even just the cities. I've
been in rural areas that have huge neighborhoods, but nobody

(55:15):
even know each other, nobody's sharing resources, nobody even knows
the name of their neighbor, and they can't get help
from anybody. Nobody can take somebody to the store or
pick up something while I'm there. And that's by design,
because as long as they keep us isolated and alienated,
they can extract every one of us, for every piece
of our life, for the rest of our lives.

Speaker 1 (55:35):
And that's what they've been doing.

Speaker 4 (55:40):
It's tough, man, because I don't want to live you know,
I am one of those girls who don't want to
live my whole life suffering. I try to romanticize every
part of my life, even when I've had nothing, and
I've had nothing, I have had nothing.

Speaker 3 (55:55):
And been hungry. They had a dollar in my account car.

Speaker 4 (55:59):
I remember this, this is a funny story, not too funny,
but funny, like that camera do is not doing it
for me. But I remember, as I get this camera ready,
where I was going out, lost my job, lost a
lot of things that didn't have no money than nothing,
and I said, at least I can spend Thanksgiving here

(56:19):
if it's just gonna be with my sister, because I
can't afford anything. I can't afford to go nowhere else
or be with anybody else. I'm gonna do it here
with my sister.

Speaker 3 (56:28):
And so when I went.

Speaker 4 (56:29):
Off to go outside, they dodn'et grabbed my car. And
this was one of those times where the situations where
my APR was twenty seven percent on a two thousand
and three vehicle that had over one hundred miles one
hundred thousand miles on it, all because I didn't have

(56:50):
the all because of that, I didn't have the means
to pay for anything.

Speaker 3 (56:55):
But I had to get to school.

Speaker 4 (56:57):
I had to get to do my job that was
actually paying me two hundred and seventy dollars every other week.
That was what I can afford while I was while
I was in two give me my master's degree. And
in that time, I'm like, Lord, I will never I
pray that I never get to this position again where

(57:18):
I'm one day away from homelessness.

Speaker 3 (57:21):
I am like, like, I have nothing.

Speaker 4 (57:23):
I couldn't even go pick up a turkey with the
ten dollars that I had put together with quarters.

Speaker 3 (57:31):
Didn't even do that.

Speaker 4 (57:33):
And I said, I don't ever want to keep living
in this way, living in my sister's home, no privacy,
like you know, things are a problem like it was.
I don't want to live like this anymore. Everything is
being taken away from me. And then when things got
hard for her, we nothing, how you know. It was
just like even to the point where church or started

(57:54):
saying no to people because the whole community was being affected.

Speaker 2 (57:58):
See yeah, see, because because it has to be a
fundamental mind change and shift. Right. The first shift for
me came in my life came at the beginning of
COVID because I was in the streets, like you know
I was. I used to be out to you know,
poker night would last until two three o'clock in the morning.

(58:19):
We didn't care about it. Right, But the first shift was, Okay,
am I going to stay home and protect my family
from all the places I want to go?

Speaker 1 (58:27):
Right? That was a no brainer.

Speaker 2 (58:29):
That wasn't even hard for me because I always prioritize well,
I prioritized their safety. I didn't prioritize me giving them time.

Speaker 1 (58:35):
And so that shift came for me.

Speaker 2 (58:36):
But then we started losing stuff, losing stuff, and I
had to start shifting, like, Okay, why am I so
upset about the fact that we don't have three cars? What?

Speaker 1 (58:45):
What is wrong with me?

Speaker 8 (58:46):
All? Right?

Speaker 1 (58:47):
Then I was like, okay, so why am I upset?

Speaker 9 (58:48):
Now?

Speaker 1 (58:48):
We only got one car? You know what I mean?
And so it's just a mind shift. And then and
then like even there's been times.

Speaker 2 (58:58):
When when you live off of a food pantry, right,
that is not even so much a humbling thing so
much as it is a reminder you're like, wait a minute,
there's a better way for us to have been doing
this all along anyway, Right, there's community. There is a
way for us to give our extra to someone else,
and that extra becomes a fundamental basis that somebody else

(59:20):
can live off of. But we put so much shame,
We've attached so much humiliation, so much arrogance. Oh you back,
hang on, take you down here and put you up here.
We put so much shame to the idea of us
not being able to have I mean, and look at it,
look at the absurdity of it, Like you go, well
beyond just the shame of not having enough food that

(59:40):
you have to go to a food pantry. Now they
apply shame to if you don't have a certain type
of bag that might cost one thousand dollars, you don't
have a certain type of shirt that doesn't that costs
five hundred dollars, you don't have certain types of chains,
you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (59:53):
It's a real level.

Speaker 3 (59:54):
Of thrifting, is mine. I still thrift till this day.

Speaker 4 (59:57):
I find enjoying it because like the other day, I
just was at the thrift store and I saw what
was it. It was a high fashion brand, and then
the shoe was only like eight dollars, right, I said, that's.

Speaker 3 (01:00:12):
Too hard for a thrift store.

Speaker 4 (01:00:13):
But it was it was like a five hundred dollars
shoe that people are wearing everywhere, and I saw it
for eight dollars.

Speaker 3 (01:00:20):
Just wasn't my my size. My feet kind of on,
you know, so, but it wasn't my size.

Speaker 4 (01:00:26):
And I think about how how social media and then
and how world goes and capitalism feeds off that, like
whatever it's trending.

Speaker 3 (01:00:36):
They will, they will.

Speaker 4 (01:00:37):
This is this is what Trevor Ola was talking about,
the same thing you were talking about. Community was broken,
only for us to pay for it now and then,
you know, things that are free. Somebody may put online
something that we already knew for a long time, it
begins to trend, they take it away from us. Well
now it's hard to find. They tax it up so
much money, and then they make us pay for this

(01:01:00):
thing that was actually free. Seeds and stuff like that,
where we can grow our own gardens and do all
that from the fruits that we eat. Now you're telling
me this this trending behind fruit, y'all's gonna now the
seeds that I want because I don't got it.

Speaker 1 (01:01:15):
I don't.

Speaker 4 (01:01:15):
I don't know where to find this fruit. No, mo
Now the things that I want. You guys are telling
me I got to pay twenty dollars per package. You allie,
God created this.

Speaker 3 (01:01:23):
I won't. I want to like what?

Speaker 4 (01:01:25):
And it's like water, simple things like why are we
start We're still talking about communities that don't have clean
water or whatever when people know how to fix it.
We have people who actually know how to work it
and fix it and get it, get the things that
we need. But they are making us pay for every
single thing. And Donald Trump is deciding listen, because things
are too liberal, I am going to defund.

Speaker 1 (01:01:47):
Those things right to work.

Speaker 3 (01:01:50):
Yes, that's mean thing it's worth.

Speaker 4 (01:01:52):
I'm going to fund the things that are going to
put our communities at risk in every single way.

Speaker 3 (01:01:57):
I will continue to fund those things right. And that's
what we're seeing right now.

Speaker 4 (01:02:03):
Everything that was supposed to be meant as community, they're
making us pay for it. If you want it, you
gotta pay five thousand for it, a golden ticket, you gotta.

Speaker 3 (01:02:11):
You know, everything that was supposed to be we are ready.

Speaker 4 (01:02:15):
As black people in America have to work a million
times as hard as anybody.

Speaker 3 (01:02:20):
So that's why we create. It's not for us to
we never wanted to other ourselves.

Speaker 4 (01:02:27):
But because America others us, we had to create programs
and communities, the same ones that they took apart, like
the Black Panther Group, which was which was something to
help the community and bring it together and keep people together, educate,
feed the community, give them health care. Was it was
broken apart. They made them seem like a terrorist group,

(01:02:51):
and that's what they do. And now we have to
go around and get other services that are from the government,
only to be tattooed or told and stay in stereotypes
that oh, all we do is get government assistance. When
people be having great jobs but just can't afford living
because where they stay at it's just rent. It's way
too damn high, and they can't feed their kids. At

(01:03:13):
the same time with traveling to work, having to put
gas in their vehicle, keep the insurance up, pay the
monthly costs, pay for the ac while their kids are
at home for the summer, like pay for right now,
kids just went on break and they're already having to
think about how much is gonna cost to put their

(01:03:33):
kids things together for school. A teacher just posted that
the unpaid hours it takes for me to get my
classroom together.

Speaker 1 (01:03:41):
Yes, no, I remember that personally for the student.

Speaker 3 (01:03:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:03:44):
You being a former educator, like I'm pretty sure you
understand those unpaid hours for teachers who are already underpaid.

Speaker 3 (01:03:53):
They don't think about that.

Speaker 4 (01:03:54):
But they rather fund things that are going to harm
the communities and push things they're gonna harm the communities
and make.

Speaker 3 (01:04:02):
These communities have to pay. The children that are going
to school.

Speaker 4 (01:04:06):
That can't eat, they free lunch no more because the
BBB M the Beautiful Bill says you can't eat.

Speaker 3 (01:04:14):
It's not it's not important.

Speaker 4 (01:04:16):
And we went over that on the last show, where
they were like there was some community that said, you
know what, it ain't really a priority. We ain't gotta
feed the kids.

Speaker 1 (01:04:28):
So they they they move and and and so.

Speaker 2 (01:04:35):
We gotta accept the fact that this is it's not
that they don't know what they're doing to us. It's
that they know exactly what they're doing and precisely how
to get it done and how to precisely keep us
from changing it. And that method of keeping us from
changing it includes people like Haqeen Jeffreys, who looks like
he's going to oppose that system, but he actually is

(01:04:56):
in there to do nothing but to prevent those of us,
those radicals, those leftists, those progressives. He's there, He's the
structure there to prevent us from changing any of this
because they know what they're doing to us, and they're
doing it intentionally, and it goes all the way. I
need people to really understand this. It's not just about
making us uncomfortable. The range of what they will do

(01:05:18):
to us. Goes from our discomfort here in the United
States all the way to what they're doing in Gaza.
They will kill us, they will genocide us. They've done
it before. Why the hell do we think they won't
do it again? And so people really need to understand,
like every time we opt in, we are supporting the
system that is eventually going to get around to our
community to kill us. Right, They're going to start with

(01:05:41):
just poisoning the air. They're going to start with stuff
that we can't notice immediately. They always end with missiles,
or in the case of our history, they end with rifles,
and they end with guns and they you know what
I mean, Like they haven't launched, except they did drop
bombs on us in Philadelphia the move movement, right, but
it always ends what we see in Gaza, and so

(01:06:02):
we have to actively start saying no, I won't consume.
I'm not buying your cheap shit. I'm not putting money,
and I'm not going out to eat when I can
eat at home. I'm not going to go buy a
new car if I can keep my clunker running and
be proud of my clunker. I'm not gonna go out
and buy a new home or new clothes if I
can go to a thrift store and get it. And

(01:06:23):
people are a lot of people are embarrassed to even
talk like that. But if we don't start living like that,
we're gonna always.

Speaker 1 (01:06:31):
Be paying them to kill us.

Speaker 2 (01:06:33):
In the end, every dollar black people gives this country,
it's a dollar that kills us. We Our dollars don't
even stay in the black community. It goes right out
into the hands of people who later on turn it
around into a way to kill us. We gotta stop consuming.
I think that's the most powerful too. And I'm not
even talking about a boycott. I'm simply saying if I
got one hundred dollars, I'm only gonna spend ten because.

Speaker 3 (01:06:56):
I need that to eat, and I need that to feed,
and I need that to have a high a place
to live.

Speaker 2 (01:07:01):
But other than that, I'm not spending not because I
want to be a big savor and all that kind
of stuff. That's good because I just refuse to put
money into the hands of people who are intentionally destroying us.
They are doing it and on purpose. And Democrats are complicit.
Republicans are just the outright flaming demons, right, they don't care.
But Democrats are the manipulative ones that are in there saying, oh, oh,

(01:07:23):
you actually wanted to do something positive in New York City.
Now we're gonna call him. We're gonna call him Islamis
terrorists and a socialists.

Speaker 4 (01:07:33):
And how again, we got to be very vicious when
we are, and I know that it goes against it
goes against the natural way to function within the Democratic
Party or Democratic believers or Democratic people who vote blue

(01:07:55):
no matter who.

Speaker 1 (01:07:57):
And unless it's a zoron.

Speaker 3 (01:07:58):
But go ahead, right, you know, no could we That's
good because it's different. We can't vote blue no matter who.

Speaker 4 (01:08:04):
But that is true for that. You know, New York City,
they're going crazy out there, they're going crazy out of them.
But we also have to remember, like if the person
is good if the person is good, but that's why
we're voting for him.

Speaker 3 (01:08:16):
That's why if the person can benefit us. It worked
for us that way.

Speaker 4 (01:08:20):
But even in this last election, the same people, my
stomach is talking to me Jesus.

Speaker 3 (01:08:31):
The same people the monogram is something. They acting crazy.

Speaker 4 (01:08:35):
The same people that were saying they were not gonna vote,
they were gonna hold their vote because of the Palestine,
because of what's happening in Godsa, because they needed to
stay in solidarity. Said you know, and again, we are
not ashamed to ever call out Kamala Harris and the
administration about the deministration for how they handled it, what
they talked about, what they said, they got the rights

(01:08:57):
to defend them all, the gall the stuff we said it,
We covered it for a very long time, but we
also did the math.

Speaker 3 (01:09:06):
We also did the math. And what happens when you
didn't vote. I ain't shaming none of y'all, but I'm
shaming y'all.

Speaker 4 (01:09:13):
What happened when you didn't vote is what it brought
us here in a place where we had to fight
worse and Palestinians are in a worse position because Donald
Trump is going He's given everybody the green light to
do whatever they want to obliterate the people, and also
doing it in other countries. Got his hands over in

(01:09:35):
Haiti in some kind of way and then telling the
people they can't be here, sitting down with folks playing
all kinds of corrupt stuff and saying the people can't
be here. But bringing South Africans over here.

Speaker 3 (01:09:50):
For free Kinkles is destroying this country. Tankles is destroying
the country.

Speaker 4 (01:10:04):
And we can't go off of the what happened. It
already happened. But I want people to look at today.
We have to make sure we get people like Zoron
into leadership. We gotta make sure we get people out
like Nancy Pelosa, who's been holding seats for a.

Speaker 3 (01:10:22):
Whole damn life. I ain't ever hear one of the
Democrats saying nothing about the people that died their fellow
state representatives that right, we're murdered. We're murdered, Like are.

Speaker 1 (01:10:32):
They not going to just get see that it's intentional?

Speaker 2 (01:10:39):
We can't accept we cannot accept that it's an oversight
because the fact that this country is not actively mourning
those individuals Melissa and Mark Hortman, and we're not mourning
them on a regular consistent basis, at least for the
first thirty days. Now they forgot about it in two weeks.

Speaker 1 (01:10:56):
It was out of the news in like three days.

Speaker 3 (01:10:58):
Yes, three days. I feel like it was twenty four hours.

Speaker 4 (01:11:00):
And the next day we was on the something else
and then the kids that just that should be a
big story and it wasn't the only the children, because
it was children and the community that died because of
Texas and you know, not doing what they needed to
do to hold down they state to hold down, that
that city to hold like, why aren't we talking about this?

Speaker 3 (01:11:22):
Why aren't we talking about how to keep things together?
What we should be doing?

Speaker 4 (01:11:27):
And even locally, they're acting like they're too good to
really talk to their constituents and or hear out their constitution.

Speaker 3 (01:11:32):
This is what's happening now. Now it's just to be outright.

Speaker 4 (01:11:38):
Nasty and to be out of controlling and to just
say I got the job, but I'm not gonna protect
you guys, I'm not gonna pay you like I said
I was, I'm not doing.

Speaker 5 (01:11:46):
It, not doing it.

Speaker 2 (01:11:50):
And yeah, no, I think I think we have to
we have to collectively start deciding to just fundamentally opt
out and change our mind about how we participate in
this country, not opt out out of voting. We need
to make sure and people should have And I agree

(01:12:11):
with you on the folks who decided not to vote
in twenty twenty four for whatever the reason, right, because
we did know, we did know what Donald Trump was
going to do to this country, and he's absolutely doing
it and it's going to make it even more difficult
for us to get any progress. That said, I voted
in twenty twenty four, right, And so for me, it's

(01:12:33):
like I don't have the energy to address them anymore because,
like we said, that's done, that's done, and we are
where we are. I see what's happening in New York
totally different, because it is absolutely the Democratic Party showing
you that they will do everything in their power to

(01:12:54):
prevent you from getting anything anything, not even like like
because the stuff that Zoran is talking about is really
like basic stuff. It's not actually it's not like scary ooh,
you know Fidel Castro communism, you know what I mean.
It's it's basically like European socialism, you know, which is

(01:13:15):
not even socialism, right, But the Democrats are so committed
to us not getting anything. So now they have all
completely inverted and they're saying, oh, we're not gonna vote
blue no matter who. And so my thing is, I'm
not playing that game with Democrats anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:13:30):
I'm going through.

Speaker 2 (01:13:30):
Not only are we going to call them out, but
we're gonna we have to We have to dismantle that
power structure because it is in service of Maga, it
is in service of fascism. And nobody can prove me wrong.
They can't if they actually get into the nuances of
what the Democrats are doing, and if we get into
the nuances of how America has shifted to the right

(01:13:53):
on the Democrats watch, and how the Democrats don't use
the tools at their disposal like Republicans use at their disposal.
There's not a single Democrat on this planet who can
tell me that the Democrats are actually standing for us
when the evidence is clear. Now they can lie, they
can distore it, they can manipulate the information just like

(01:14:13):
Magga does. But that's all the more reason for us
to look at them and say, hey, listen, if you're
serious about preserving this democracy, which I am, if you're
serious about doing something for working class people, and middle
class people, which I am if you're serious about trying
to stop white supremacy. Because good god, these the Democrats
when they had the House and the Senate and Joe

(01:14:34):
Biden didn't even pass the George Floyd Justice and Policing Act.
They didn't pass the John Lewis and the Voting to
Restore Our Voting Rights Act. They didn't pass either one
of those. So you can't even tell me that all
of these excuse me, got stuff fall in the background.
You can't even tell me that all of these black
Democrats who are out here pretending as if they are

(01:14:56):
the vanguard of protecting silvi rights, you're not even protecting
civil rights, my dude, y'all are protecting Israel and Zionism
more than you're protecting the black community. So we you
know what I mean, it's really absolutely time out for
anything other than complete and total opposition against this entire thing.
And watch this, y'all can't don't don't talk to me

(01:15:18):
about patriotism. You're not gonna sit out here and say, oh,
he's radical, he wants to destroy America. No, I want
to destroy the people who are destroying America, because America
actually could have been, except now it's been taken hostage
by a neoliberal regime that is both democrat and republican,
by a fascist regime that is both democrat and republican.
And oh, by the way, black fascists like Eric Adams

(01:15:40):
in New York and black Zionists who are supporting fascism
in Israel expecting us.

Speaker 1 (01:15:45):
To not have it here at home.

Speaker 2 (01:15:47):
Nah man, we know the gig is up, y'all.

Speaker 1 (01:15:49):
The jig is up.

Speaker 3 (01:15:50):
It's all up. I wish the gig would be up,
but you know it's affecting.

Speaker 4 (01:15:58):
I sent you this video so because everything we talked
about goes into what this video, it's actually just run it.
I know you may not get it, but if y'all
a we're paying attention from the get go of this
this episode, you'll understand what I'm talking about how this
ties into it.

Speaker 3 (01:16:15):
But Ben, here's here's how it falls into. Like this
Burger King.

Speaker 4 (01:16:18):
This is Burger King worker, this young woman who's I
believe twenty five years old, and I think you probably
go through the there's a video there possibly, but it
goes through this woman who is a Burger King employee
and she is running the burger King franchise or the
Burger King Stool restaurant on her own. And she's the

(01:16:40):
one person because somebody quit and she is most likely
getting paid minimum wage. And she is one of the
employees had quit and she had a take on cooking
the food, running the drive through, and also the people
who were coming into the restaurant as well.

Speaker 3 (01:17:00):
Take a look at this.

Speaker 4 (01:17:01):
And she's also a mother of I believe three when
she did her twenties, and she has a record. I
say that because I want you to play these.

Speaker 11 (01:17:09):
Hamilton is a single mother of three here in Columbia.
She works twelve hours plus to provide for her children,
even if that means doing it all by herself. At
this burger came on Broad River Road.

Speaker 12 (01:17:21):
One of my employees just quit on me and they
ain't had nobody else to come in, So I had
to work by my set and clothes by myself.

Speaker 3 (01:17:29):
Had to do the dishes, do.

Speaker 12 (01:17:31):
Prep, do the floor, do front cound of drive through
though I know shit, now drive through and let people
come in because it's too much, try to run and
take waters then gotta run back.

Speaker 1 (01:17:42):
Is there more to it?

Speaker 3 (01:17:43):
There was more to it? I don't that wasn't the
let me see because my friends.

Speaker 4 (01:17:48):
Hold on because I wanted you guys to hear her
actually give here here we are her and I don't
really support Hollywood a lot, but they got it here
there go because they just been lying on people, and
they just lying on people.

Speaker 1 (01:18:02):
What's that?

Speaker 7 (01:18:03):
Who the guy owned that?

Speaker 1 (01:18:04):
What's his name?

Speaker 5 (01:18:04):
Again?

Speaker 1 (01:18:07):
Good lord?

Speaker 5 (01:18:07):
Ready, they're back already?

Speaker 3 (01:18:10):
Who your family?

Speaker 5 (01:18:12):
My people?

Speaker 1 (01:18:13):
They went, they went to an event, but I don't.

Speaker 3 (01:18:16):
You thought you had more time. We're out of here soon.

Speaker 2 (01:18:18):
But just because he's gonna get this video, Oh, even
what it means doing it all by herself.

Speaker 5 (01:18:25):
I'll be missing out my kid's life.

Speaker 12 (01:18:28):
And I work a lot, so you have to provide
for them, and I really don't be having time to
spend with them, and it hurts me a lot.

Speaker 11 (01:18:35):
Nakia Hamilton is a single mother of three here in Colombia.
She works twelve hours plus to provide for her children,
even if that means doing it all by herself. At
this burger came on Broad River Road.

Speaker 12 (01:18:47):
One of my employees just quit on me as they
ain't had nobody else to come in, so I had
to work by myself and closed by myself. Had to
do the dishes, do the prep, do the floor through
front condor drive through the I you know, shitting, I
drive through and let people come in because it's too much,
try to run and take water, then gotta run back.

Speaker 4 (01:19:05):
So y'all need to get her some help up in
here because she busted her behind.

Speaker 3 (01:19:08):
She's doing everything she needs to do to make sure
everybody is okay up in here.

Speaker 11 (01:19:11):
And this TikTok video you can see Hamilton working by herself,
and thousands of people on social media had questions.

Speaker 5 (01:19:18):
Now last night I closed again by myself. Last night.

Speaker 7 (01:19:21):
I finally got helped.

Speaker 5 (01:19:21):
Today.

Speaker 12 (01:19:22):
Man, she's been here since eleven o'clock. She about to
close with us at a living so we just ain't
got no employees. Nobody want to work no more.

Speaker 11 (01:19:29):
Still, even after what happened here that day, Hamilton says
that she's doing it all for her children and thinks
her manager for giving her the job.

Speaker 12 (01:19:38):
I wouldn't have no job because I do have a record,
and it's hard to find a job with a record.
And look, by grace of God, she gave me a job.
So that's the only reason why I stayed for.

Speaker 1 (01:19:49):
So to get some certification about it.

Speaker 3 (01:19:55):
So no.

Speaker 4 (01:19:57):
The reason why I bring it up is because there's
so many points and I think I might make a
separate video on this just because like you go, you
go through and you see this, and burger King actually
made a statement.

Speaker 3 (01:20:06):
Burger king statement was that.

Speaker 1 (01:20:09):
She it was good to you.

Speaker 5 (01:20:10):
Humh.

Speaker 4 (01:20:10):
The burger King statement was that burgking statement was that,
now that's not what burger King said. But burger King's
statement was that, oh, this is not how we function
as burger King. And for franchise locations, we're gonna do
an investigation to see why that happened. She should be
having one at least one person other person working with her.
I said, that's all y'all got for this girl holding

(01:20:32):
down that location for y'all and represent and saying that
burger King, the owner of his Burger King.

Speaker 3 (01:20:39):
Saw her, gave her an opportunity.

Speaker 4 (01:20:43):
And she knows that that, you know, she looks at
that as, oh my goodness, like this owner of burger
King saw me and gave me an opportunity. And and
and it sucks because I know what the person saw.
They saw somebody who had no chance and they knew
that no matter what they her blood sweat and tears
for this.

Speaker 3 (01:20:59):
And it also goes to show.

Speaker 4 (01:21:00):
That they don't like it's it's black women having the hole,
like yeah, yeah, yeah, black women having to deny their
families so that they can help the communities. But they
can get these these payments to make sure they take
care of their kids. They'd rather do that, right. And
she also she could have walked out on that location.
She didn't have to stay there. There was nothing. There

(01:21:22):
was nothing that would have kept her there because man,
there's nothing but the thought of me not having any
other opportunities. This is all I can get, This is
all I'm worth, This is it for me. Burger King
could have said, for this girl to be able to
show us that she can hold it down on her own,
that when when stuff hits the fire, literally when the

(01:21:43):
people Burger hitting the fire, while she has to go
take care of the orders at the at the window
and then the people who are coming in.

Speaker 8 (01:21:49):
And she did it.

Speaker 4 (01:21:50):
She wasn't she was running around, but she wasn't running
around with like a chicken with her head cut off.
She was making sure that every and then she was
strategic about it. You had some folks in the common
saying you know, hey, maybe if it was you know,
maybe if she did like this, or maybe she did
like this, and a lot of us as black folks,
we knew she needs to be a general manager. Compensate

(01:22:11):
that woman. Dude like Burger King, do better. Don't say, oh,
she should have never been working alone.

Speaker 3 (01:22:17):
Now we have to investigate why it was just her.
She just said an employee quit.

Speaker 4 (01:22:22):
But she also was in fear of losing this job
because this job is the only way she feeds her kids.
And the world told her that as a formally incarcerated
person who has a record, this is all she deserves
and she should be happy with this because this is
it for her. And yeah, she has to go fund

(01:22:44):
me and they raised I believe you know up today
it has to be yeah, and she deserves it, right,
she deserves it. But I also want her, I said,
I was like, I don't want her to quit the job.
I want Burger King to offer her up a position
to run at least them South Carolina.

Speaker 3 (01:23:03):
In Columbia, South Carolina.

Speaker 4 (01:23:05):
Those burger Kings give her a position that takes her
out to elevate her because she elevated this place for y'all,
for so long, and god knows how long she's been
running it this way.

Speaker 3 (01:23:15):
God knows how long she'd been running it this way.

Speaker 2 (01:23:18):
Yeah, for them, sorry, I was gonna say for them,
it had to be for a little bit of time
for them to pick up on the story and then
come and make a story out of it. It's not
like it happened one day and then the news cameras
showed up that same day. Now, it probably took weeks
for her to get the attention for what she was doing,
and then they let her do it for that loan.

Speaker 3 (01:23:37):
Yes they did. They knew she was opening the spot
up and doing get this for this long.

Speaker 4 (01:23:41):
My thing is the second chances should not come at
the cost of overworking her into the ground, like she
should not have to go and be subjected to only
these low paying wages and then being celebrated for surviving this.

Speaker 2 (01:23:56):
Right right, We love survival stories in the United States
of America, right, especially when.

Speaker 3 (01:24:01):
It comes from a black woman. She she just told y'all,
I was formally incarcerated. I came out.

Speaker 4 (01:24:06):
I'm not trying to go back. But this lady gave
she saw me and she gave you me a chance.
But she gave you a chance at putting yourself just
to be running to the ground. And then as soon
as a statement came out, they said, oh, this is
we gotta investigate, not oh, she should have never been
working this way. We are going to get with her,
We're gonna partner with her. We think her none of that,

(01:24:29):
none of that, and they let her. They saw the
news reports, they saw that she that she was running
herself into a ground thinking that this is her only opportunity,
and this is this is how good it gets for her.

Speaker 3 (01:24:40):
They know, I'm pretty sure conversations with their.

Speaker 4 (01:24:42):
Miniatuer said, are you gonna be able to run this
place even like even if it was like on fire,
where you still run into this building to save it?
Those were the interview questions. I'm pretty sure because she's
formally incarcerated, she has a record.

Speaker 1 (01:24:56):
As opposed to see and this is this is what
I'm saying. And I don't believe. Good God, emne of
that camera don't like you today. I don't believe.

Speaker 3 (01:25:06):
That.

Speaker 2 (01:25:12):
I believe that people need I don't think this is
a pipe dream, but I do believe that there is
the possibility for community to be strong enough to shoulder
people as they are transitioning back into reality, like if
if I mean, I'm not saying that she shouldn't have

(01:25:34):
gotten that job, but what I'm saying is people shouldn't
have to sacrifice their lives in order to get back
on their feet. And this system has intentionally just taken
away our capacity as communities, the whole idea of community
to be able to take care of people and to
restore them and to get them back into this on

(01:25:57):
their feet. Right now, there's like there's like we're we're
there are the people in her community, in her family,
in her neighborhood, in her life that could have helped
sustain her. So she didn't have to go back and
create her whole give her whole body over to this system.

Speaker 1 (01:26:12):
Right where is that at?

Speaker 2 (01:26:14):
It doesn't exist? And that's on purpose, Like that's the
key thing that they have been able to do. They
need us to be in the most vulnerable position possible,
but you won't be vulnerable if you have community to
fall back on. Not everybody in your community is good,
not everybody in your family is good, and you can't
count on everybody, and not every situation is ideal.

Speaker 1 (01:26:33):
But the reason it is that way is because we
have all been trained.

Speaker 2 (01:26:38):
All of the systems have been broken, all of the
programs have been broken, all of the church the mentality
for churches to even do this kind of work, that
thinking has been broken. Churches are now corporations and they're
building empires, and they're building their brands instead of building
their communities. Right, So every possible way that could have
helped this sister to not have to sell her labor

(01:27:00):
so cheap to basically she's share cropping on behalf of
Burger King, right, she's running the entire machine, and then
they're giving her a pad on the back, and then
everybody's celebrating the story. Oh look, she's such a triumph
and black woman. She's so determined, no, no benefits nothing.
And so that's on purpose, and that's what we have
to break. If we don't break that, we're gonna hear

(01:27:22):
a story after story, like we hear it.

Speaker 7 (01:27:23):
All the time.

Speaker 2 (01:27:24):
Here's this janitor who walked twelve miles every day and
after thirty years they decided they give them a car.

Speaker 4 (01:27:31):
That's why I'm pissed because it's like these stories, I
don't it's not about like tearing her down being like
a black woman. But it's about not normalizing the way
that these systems and these corporations and capitalism and they
abuse her just because this black woman can take it.

Speaker 3 (01:27:51):
Right.

Speaker 4 (01:27:52):
She came from jail, she needed to feed their kids,
she could take this. I'm pretty sure that's how the
interview went. I'm telling you, I know the questions that
were asked, are you able to, like, you know, take
it if? What if you're the only person? What if
you they want to they know because they're gonna that's
what And that's what we're seeing a lot of happen.
They're firing a lot of people from these jobs to

(01:28:13):
get people who are desperate in these positions because they
know that they'll hold down their corporations for them. And
but they're gonna pay them less and give them less
benefits or no benefits.

Speaker 3 (01:28:23):
And I want people to.

Speaker 4 (01:28:24):
Understand, like this is why I say she doesn't deserve
to never see a life outside of just working like.

Speaker 3 (01:28:32):
She She deserves better. She deserves if she came out.

Speaker 4 (01:28:35):
With the mindset of change, and I want to put
the work in it shouldn't this job that she's doing
will it's made to keep her like this for for
however long, for however long, where she in her mind
will continue to say and tell people, y'all.

Speaker 3 (01:28:51):
Know, I got a record.

Speaker 4 (01:28:52):
I can't get nothing else I can't get. And it's
not her fault. It's not her fault, it's the system. Meanwhile, community,
the community that's seen this, the community of black folks
has seen this online said put that.

Speaker 3 (01:29:05):
Put that. No, what's her cash at? That's right, what's
what's her baby schools?

Speaker 5 (01:29:10):
What she needs?

Speaker 3 (01:29:11):
What does she need? Put you know, let's get.

Speaker 1 (01:29:13):
All of that digital community.

Speaker 3 (01:29:15):
Step who's hiring. Let's get her a job.

Speaker 4 (01:29:17):
Let's train her up for something else, because they even
are overworking her so much, she probably can't put time.

Speaker 3 (01:29:22):
Into trying to figure out other things.

Speaker 1 (01:29:24):
Right, right, she's holding around twelve twenty hours a day.

Speaker 4 (01:29:28):
It's crazy on her own, the cooking food, taking care
of the orders from the drive through and also the
people who are walking in to eat inside the restaurant.

Speaker 3 (01:29:40):
She's taking care of that community. She's taking care of
that business.

Speaker 2 (01:29:45):
But you said, you said something really critical. That's what
the digital community see. The digital community, and this is
what your local community can help you find a place
to stay. They can open up a room. They can
open up their they can open up that right. They
can tell you somebody, I know somebody who has it's
a broken down car, but it'll run.

Speaker 1 (01:30:05):
The ac ain't the ac ain't too good. But you
know what I mean. But if you keep the windows cracked,
you be all right. Like that's what local community can do.

Speaker 2 (01:30:12):
The digital community can send you resources and send you
money and send you to opportunities.

Speaker 1 (01:30:18):
And they stepped up. I don't know how long is
she that twenty six thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:30:22):
If she handled it right, it could be enough to
help her get on her feet and to get a
little break and get free.

Speaker 1 (01:30:28):
But where the local community.

Speaker 2 (01:30:29):
Has fallen, it is good to see the digital community
step up the way they did for sure.

Speaker 4 (01:30:35):
Yeah no, And I can't lie, you know. That's why
I say I know my audience right now, this is
my community in times like this, the difficulty, times like this,
like I lean on this community to help me, you know,
if they can, because in these times it's just like

(01:30:55):
I know y'all know y'all been rocking with me, y'all.
I remember my therapist told me when I had literally
didn't know what I was gonna do she said, you
have a community, lean on them. And I was so
afraid right at that time. But the moment that I
shared what was happening with me, they begin to pour in,
y'all begin to poor, and y'all began to help. And

(01:31:16):
I know, my pride sometimes steps in the way because
you know, I like to be seen a certain kind
of way. I don't want to be seen as like
a charity case, right, you know, because of what I do.
I want to be well respected. I wanted people to
look at me and respect me and not always say, oh,
she needed to go fund me for this, she needed
or whatever. Life be life, and it does. But when

(01:31:37):
my therapist was like, girl, lean on your community. That
is actually your community. And when I opened my mouth
and I shared what was going on, you know, I
was able to get out of whatever I was in
in that moment.

Speaker 3 (01:31:48):
Right.

Speaker 4 (01:31:49):
So I'm happy that we have this community, and I'm
happy that somebody knew that when they shared that video,
that it would get into our hands. It would get
into you know, from our phone, from our screens, and
we would see not look at it.

Speaker 3 (01:32:04):
Like, oh wow, he working hard, Oh man, he working hard.
Let's just know.

Speaker 4 (01:32:11):
She's working too hard and assistant. That's telling her that
she can't get nothing else. Let's let's help her understand
what's happening with her and tell her she can get better.
But it's also you know, give her the tools and
and give her the money that she needs and all.
That's what community does, and that's what we see was
what was happening before us just now. So yeah, you know,

(01:32:33):
that's that's it, you know, And and right now again
I'm leaning on my community. I'm leaning on you guys
as we're at the end of the show to help
write with us and what we're doing and how we're
doing it, because this is the only way I'm surviving
right now. I don't have any of the income that
I once had. There, you know, I'm trying to keep
everything together lights, you know, cars and and water and

(01:32:55):
all the things. And this is work that I do
because I love to do. I love to be here,
and I lean on my community. And that's okay.

Speaker 3 (01:33:03):
I'm glad that we have, you know, the option to
have community and and all the things.

Speaker 1 (01:33:09):
But yeah, these uh, super chats from the community.

Charlie said, yes, Nancy, Fascism can be very distracting. We
should probably do something about it. I swear to themns
do so much work to not have to do anything.
They put in so much effort to get nothing done.
It's unbelievable. Not Low's said Bubba. What color is that shirt?

Speaker 1 (01:34:08):

Speaker 2 (01:35:04):
Tiger said, if we're serious about surviving this administration, we
need to start using all the tools and tricks the
right has succeeded with minus bigotry. Dims fight better fight.
That's right, that's a fact. Jillan gen thank you for
the ten dollars, and thank you Tiger for yours. Jen said,
I saw someone say that the reason they don't want

(01:35:24):
to dismantle the MAGA slash doope is because if they
succeed it gives people the blueprint on how to also
dismantle the DNC on undred percent.

Speaker 1 (01:35:32):
Yes, this is from star or asterisk.

Speaker 3 (01:35:36):
Rather asterisk look asterisk.

Speaker 2 (01:35:38):
Yes, it's unforgivable that Dems have not righteously framed. ICE
is the largest anti Catholic movement since the KKK and
the twenties to market ourselves to ethnic whites who do
not identify with evangelical white nationalism.

Speaker 3 (01:37:24):
The food, the food, If.

Speaker 4 (01:37:26):
It's that, my skunna make is growling, benly plan plan
which is good for you. But I will say y'all listen,
I am about to be at a ten thousand. I've
been waiting to get at two thousand. You guys have
been so loyal to me. Ten thousand, ten thousand. I
am one hundred and four away. I did it on
my own, A subscribers away from ten thousand. If you haven't,

(01:37:49):
please like, share, subscribe, send to your grandmama, your ex,
your new man. Okay, somebody please send it over so
that they can follow and see what I'm doing. I
had dropped a brand new video earlier this week called
Ice is not Security, It is a weapon. Please take
a look at it and again share it with your friends.

(01:38:10):
Like the post, make sure you send it out there
for the algorithm. I got a new video coming up
for y'all soon, and it's going to be on how
AI is being used to stereotype black people, specifically black women.
I don't know why we always posted up and use
in our likeliness is used for us to look like
baby Mama's people who ain't got no job hood people.

(01:38:33):
But we'll be able to definitely flesh it out because
when white folks are on use on AI, they are
used as people who are people would kind of stinks, right,
we got jobs, you know, the same way, and the
people behind the AI creations of black people.

Speaker 3 (01:38:47):
The caricatures of AI are usually white. So let's talk
about it, but pact.

Speaker 2 (01:38:52):
Let me play this real quick before I go. This
is a young rapper from Philadelphia. I just learned about
him this week and he unfortunately got killed. Didn't learn
about him until he got killed. He called himself the
voice of the community, or i'd rather the voice of
the youth, voice of the youth, and he was. I've
done nothing but listened to his stuff all week long.

(01:39:14):
When I tell you straight up a prophet, and I
don't say that likely you know what I mean, Like
you know I'm I'm gonna play I'm gonna play this
clip and you know his his His stage name was
LGBT LGP Quah. Let's get paid Quah. And I just
want to I want to play this real quick because
I'm what I've been doing for the last three weeks

(01:39:36):
with the couple Melissa and Mark Hortman out of Minneapolis,
the two who were killed that you brought up. I've
been remembering them every day, five days a week, just
on time.

Speaker 1 (01:39:47):
But I don't do it. His own Saturday and Sunday.

Speaker 2 (01:39:49):
But I'm doing that because remembrance, like you've said so
many times, remembrance is important, like they on erase it
from our memories.

Speaker 1 (01:39:56):
This brother, I didn't know him.

Speaker 2 (01:39:58):
I didn't know his work until this week from North Philly,
But I think this is somebody that we should learn
about as well as remember.

Speaker 1 (01:40:06):
And I want to just play it real quick and
then we get out of here. Can you hear it?

Speaker 3 (01:40:16):
No volume?

Speaker 1 (01:40:18):
No volume?

Speaker 4 (01:40:19):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:40:19):
Oh, hang on right there, try now, can you hear now?
Niggas don't let's start a getting real quick, I said, South.

Speaker 10 (01:40:28):
Destruction aheaded floor. She ain't getting bed as far as
here was the new challesman, I'm getting bridy for a
chance getting light. So now the pears really stressing for
all where from niggas down fighting for everything I talked
is off facts, This reality bullets fighting, body stopping and
police with the book. A sixteen year old girl fucking
time a while, give all that tankers keep on fucking
up they like from here in time. You want to

(01:40:49):
know the reasons because they never had f I was
then broke, man. I never had a fall I ever had,
was my mom?

Speaker 1 (01:40:56):
The boy said, of you.

Speaker 3 (01:40:57):
So I'm gonna speak for my community everybody.

Speaker 10 (01:40:59):
Hey, why did you thinkings always that I was just.

Speaker 1 (01:41:05):
Revolution shall be televised.

Speaker 3 (01:41:06):
I hope you bring it back.

Speaker 10 (01:41:08):
Slavery to sliver in their hands. It's in particulars trying
to put his back in the film all of my
niggas moment of South.

Speaker 2 (01:41:20):
LGB qu l G p Quai and yeah, like that's
just the tip of the iceberg was murdered.

Speaker 1 (01:41:29):
He was murdered over his chains.

Speaker 2 (01:41:32):
You know, I'm doing my best not to get into
conspiracy theory. One of the last things this young man
was doing was organizing his community to feed the homeless.
And when you that's it's strangely enough, people who organize
the community to feed the homeless is the fastest way
for you to get put on the radar. When you

(01:41:55):
add that to all the stuff that he was actually
talking about. He used to talk about missile was dropping
in the middle of East hes to talk about systemic problems, right,
And he did it in a way that he and
he always had the streets with them. He always had
the streets with them. Every video you see of him,
he's backed by this mini dudes are more and then
you watch the video where because they do have it

(01:42:17):
on CCTV where he got shot, right, they could see it.
You could see like the people they surrounded him came
from different sides like it it was. It looked less
like a robbery and more like a hit job. That's
all I'll say about that. I just feel like he
was a prophet that needs to be heard, and so
I'm doing everything i can every day the same days

(01:42:40):
I'm honoring those folks, Melissa and Mark Cortman out of Minneapolis.
It's gonna be the same exact day that I honored
this cat by playing some of his stuff and showing
people who he was, because I think he needs to
be remembered.

Speaker 1 (01:42:51):
LGP quad, So thank.

Speaker 4 (01:42:54):
You for sharing that with us, and you know, absolutely
condolences to his family, and I'm glad that you were
able to uh share that with us so we can
at least just play his videos, you know, to continue
to That was deep, He's it was a deep wrapper
and I hate that to see that.

Speaker 2 (01:43:12):
And he was loved, I mean, he was loved by
the streets. I mean like the people who were doing
drill music, you know, they they had his back. I
mean from from Dope Boys on the Block all the
way to will I Am to common the most death,
Like the people really really really respected him. So just

(01:43:33):
going gone way too soon, but left the mark. I
mean there's thousands of like hours of videos of him
out there doing this kind of stuff. So all we
got to do is keep playing it and he'll never
be forgotten and his impact, that's the thing, not just
that he won't be forgotten, his impact can continue to
impact people. And so that's what we want to do. Becca,
Thank you for that extra minute. Don't get out here,
