biggest, the biggest thing, 00:33:10.779 --> 00:33:12.700 My father, they real is just an extended lunch. 00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:14.829 Like really don't do for father's day. 00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:16.119 Like real 00:33:19.109 --> 00:33:19.480 Was grilling. 00:33:19.509 --> 00:33:21.069 You know that ain't going on grill. 00:33:21.130 --> 00:33:22.779 But that's the huge thing. 00:33:22.780 --> 00:33:25.779 I think that's an important part about just the, the awareness of it. 00:33:26.019 --> 00:33:28.750 And I really learned the history when I was in Texas and now it came back. 00:33:28.750 --> 00:33:40.569 So for GE to say that he learned that in high school, I think it, it gives breath to us as a society, but it also shows just how we aren't unified in our history enough for everybody to know the impact in which it has. 00:33:40.570 --> 00:33:43.900 That's why I'm asking how straight out the gate, how y'all feel about Juneteenth. 00:33:43.901 --> 00:33:45.579 And if you did anything fun about it. 00:33:48.039 --> 00:33:56.440 So I guess that would be more of a regional this year is definitely the highlighted. 00:33:56.769 --> 00:33:57.349 And that's what I was. 00:33:57.519 --> 00:33:59.559 That's what I was saying about, about it being a holiday. 00:33:59.560 --> 00:34:03.099 Like now we got the internet and information is unavoidable. 00:34:03.190 --> 00:34:05.009 Like you can't, there's no longer the excuse. 00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:05.589 I didn't know. 00:34:06.160 --> 00:34:10.329 Like now it's like was social media and just the access to information where the information is. 00:34:10.900 --> 00:34:14.170 There's no way people won't know about Juneteenth anymore. 00:34:18.250 --> 00:34:39.250 know a bout all these other random holidays, like hot d og h olidays. 00:34:44.199 --> 00:34:45.610 And can the banks close too? 00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:46.420 Cause I'll be honest with you. 00:34:46.420 --> 00:34:48.099 It's not a holiday to me unless the banks are closed. 00:34:49.570 --> 00:34:50.650 They'll national holiday. 00:34:51.369 --> 00:34:52.150 That's how I know. 00:34:52.150 --> 00:34:55.690 It's l ike earth day holiday. 00:34:55.690 --> 00:34:57.670 We got what's the last new holiday. 00:35:00.010 --> 00:35:04.510 Like what's the last, like w hat d o you mean? 00:35:05.230 --> 00:35:09.219 Like what was the last r ecent holiday? 00:35:10.809 --> 00:35:15.909 Whether it's like p resident's d ay, 00:35:17.500 --> 00:35:21.280 They got rid of, uh, Abraham Lincoln, Dane and George Washington name. 00:35:21.369 --> 00:35:22.480 And then they just made t he p resident's. 00:35:22.481 --> 00:35:25.329 N ow I just know that because of the audio. 00:35:25.659 --> 00:35:31.059 Yeah, it was, you get a good mattress on that day. 00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:37.949 We getting for June team, 00:35:38.550 --> 00:35:39.360 What do we do? 00:35:43.820 --> 00:36:02.539 Like what are we getting stimulus from ancestry. 00:36:02.809 --> 00:36:06.349 And you find

out if your parents was a slave and then you get like, you know what I'm saying? 00:36:06.351 --> 00:36:09.829 Like, are you fill out the little unemployment, filling your ancestry? 00:36:10.099 --> 00:36:22.309 So you're talking about reparations and if they can't find your record by$65, 00:36:41.719 --> 00:36:42.590 1800 hours. 00:36:49.130 --> 00:36:55.550 And I, and I think that bleeds into the next topic, like really just what is the community willing to sacrifice for radical independence? 00:36:55.849 --> 00:36:57.170 What are you willing to give up? 00:36:57.380 --> 00:37:00.260 And this, this bleeds into the, uh, the Kyrie conversation. 00:37:00.260 --> 00:37:05.090 I know you guys are big sports fans and you understand where Kyrie is positioned. 00:37:05.150 --> 00:37:08.480 So before we kind of move forward, I want to know where, where do you lie? 00:37:08.539 --> 00:37:12.110 Are you with Kyrie and or are you not retiree? 00:37:12.110 --> 00:37:25.039 And if you don't know the topic at hand, K yrie, doesn't want to start the basketball season just to show protests and align ourselves with the fact that we can be independent and show others the power that we have in terms of our society. 00:37:25.190 --> 00:37:26.989 So where are you standing on that topic? 00:37:27.019 --> 00:37:32.360 Are you on one side of the fence that says we should continue basketball and go back to everything that's normal? 00:37:32.760 --> 00:37:42.230 Are you stating the fact of s aying, Hey, let's put focus on these initiatives of our society and make sure that others understand that we n ot playing no games out here. 00:37:42.710 --> 00:37:44.300 So where do y'all stand on that incident? 00:37:44.300 --> 00:37:49.550 I'm gonna start with G really quickly because I know you played ball in college and just the different aspects of it. 00:37:49.789 --> 00:37:51.110 Where do you stand on that line? 00:37:52.880 --> 00:37:58.190 I feel like that coin two sides t o that coin, but also more sides to the story. 00:37:58.369 --> 00:37:58.820 Y ou k now w hat I m ean? 00:38:00.530 --> 00:38:03.320 O n one side there's, there's the business side of it all. 00:38:04.610 --> 00:38:08.599 Uh, t here needed to be money, an i nflux of money in the economy. 00:38:08.929 --> 00:38:11.210 Sports is one of those vehicles for that. 00:38:11.690 --> 00:38:16.489 It's also a way for people's att entions to be placed in one direction. 00:38:16.550 --> 00:38:20.659 And the sort of inject that euphoria that we miss fro m soc iety. 00:38:21.199 --> 00:38:27.920 The other side of that is the personal side, you know, and tho se people that actually work in that labor force, you know what I'm saying? 00:38:27.920 --> 00:38:31.789 You got sports athletes that actually need that money. 00:38:33.500 --> 00:38:40.239 You know, they may have, it may be gett ing lik e, you know, 200 cash che c ks, bu t ther e are cos t s of living ther e. 00:38:40.690 --> 00:38:44.440 Co st of everything has went up since they've gotten that new money. 00:38:44.619 --> 00:38:52.599 So it's like they got to k ee p up with their own living arrangements, you know, Dubai game by game tech, yo u know, and some of those people really need that money. 00:38:52.601 --> 00:38:55.630 So I see why some players are saying, Hey, that. 00:38:55.630 --> 00:38:58.630 Like we really need to play becau se we'r e younger in the league. 00:38:58.659 --> 00:39:04.420 We're not necessarily a super superstar getting all this bread, but look, man, I'm a second year player. 00:39:04.420 --> 00:39:06.820 My contract is only 300 K for t he y ear. 00:39:06.969 --> 00:39:08.829 Like that' s noth i ng, you know what I mean? 00:39:08.831 --> 00:39:16.090 Or whoever the three meal, I'm just saying for t hem. 00:39:18.829 --> 00:39:18.829 [inaudible] 00:39:20.280 --> 00:39:23.039 And then there's the third side and there's the third side. 00:39:23.389 --> 00:39:31.409 That's the social side, the side that we're, we're, we're enlightened where right now, you know, the political climate that's going on right now in the social atmosphere. 00:39:31.411 --> 00:39:36.449 So it's like, do you want sports to serve as a distraction? 00:39:37.289 --> 00:39:56.579 Or do you want the players that are, that occupied 90 to 95% of these leads and are just as much as important as a voice in the community as a black diaspora is to give them an opportunity to stand up and say, what's right for themselves, or to shut up, shut up and play. 00:39:56.760 --> 00:39:58.409 Can you do both at the same time? 00:40:00.059 --> 00:40:01.289 That's the way we are with it. 00:40:01.710 --> 00:40:03.079 That's why we're discussing Tyree. 00:40:03.300 --> 00:40:03.300 Right? 00:40:06.139 --> 00:40:12.090 I, I, I, I grew up with GSA, but I think it's actually, you can really do both at the same time. 00:40:15.449 --> 00:40:25.050 And at first I was upset about the whole not upset, irritated, cause it's Kyrie, you know, that's his, that's how I view him. 00:40:26.130 --> 00:40:29.880 What you talking about, man, speaking his mind and you going to tell him that he's, man, come on. 00:40:32.280 --> 00:40:33.239 It's not just a fake word. 00:40:33.960 --> 00:40:36.510 He's not a, contrarion just call him a country areas 00:40:41.199 --> 00:40:42.989 Saying the man, bro, for speaking to me, 00:40:49.139 --> 00:40:58.440 Not my movement at all, but every rally leader versus Kyrie doesn't strike me as a leader. 00:40:59.400 --> 00:41:04.920 He's in a very different place where he's not playing and it's only came up when he realized he wasn't going. 00:41:05.400 --> 00:41:11.400 And he's super breaded compared to the other players and making his own league. 00:41:12.000 --> 00:41:12.449 It's just like 00:41:13.409 --> 00:41:14.849 Wrong with that, bro. 00:41:14.880 --> 00:41:15.179 Come on. 00:41:15.181 --> 00:41:21.000 Let's talk about it, us empowering ourselves in order to organize off of the talent that we have as a

community. 00:41:21.570 --> 00:41:23.099 Why can't we just get up and say, yeah, 00:41:23.130 --> 00:41:26.940 I can't even say those plans while you're a current employee of the NBA. 00:41:27.210 --> 00:41:34.610 Like I'm sure that's a direct violation, but I thought it was not about not entertaining the white people. 00:41:34.880 --> 00:41:37.460 If you make a new league, how are you not entertaining? 00:41:37.519 --> 00:41:37.789 The whites? 00:41:38.710 --> 00:41:38.920 Yeah. 00:41:38.949 --> 00:41:43.989 They're not, they're not benefiting off of it as much as they would prior to it's within the community. 00:41:45.690 --> 00:41:46.599 I'll put money in a pocket. 00:41:50.170 --> 00:41:54.400 But I do agree though, if black people stop cleaning, cause we always talked about it. 00:41:54.400 --> 00:41:57.429 Like man, the black people are like the sports entertainment, everything. 00:41:57.670 --> 00:42:01.179 We run, the music we run, we run the dances. 00:42:01.449 --> 00:42:02.530 You talk about the culture. 00:42:02.530 --> 00:42:05.530 That's our current culture. 00:42:05.530 --> 00:42:06.639 Like these basketball players. 00:42:06.940 --> 00:42:18.849 They say how people cut their hair, how they dress, like how they wag and then going back and forth. 00:42:21.070 --> 00:42:36.190 And so if the rappers aren't having concerts and the basketball players aren't, you know, given, putting on shows in arenas where the white people don't have no more to be entertained by i t just like back in the day when h e was going to M anny, it was still getting entertained by these s eats. 00:42:36.670 --> 00:42:42.099 N ow i t'd be kind of hard and then t hey'd go in and pick it u p right after they get off work. 00:42:42.369 --> 00:42:43.579 It's kind of like that. 00:42:43.581 --> 00:42:53.349 You just can't do hand-in-hand now yet we appropriated the basketball football and we dominate that position. 00:42:53.980 --> 00:42:53.980 Right. 00:42:53.981 --> 00:42:57.130 We dominate that, but we're still the players. 00:42:57.780 --> 00:42:58.659 The players are not. 00:42:58.661 --> 00:43:03.340 So what are they, what are they doing then that plans, how do they spend the rest of the year? 00:43:04.179 --> 00:43:05.409 I don't know what they do. 00:43:05.500 --> 00:43:05.980 I don't know. 00:43:06.429 --> 00:43:07.690 But I'm biased. 00:43:07.690 --> 00:43:17.530 I would love to see them play, but I get it if you don't wanna entertain, because the thing about black people are the biggest entertainers, but yet the poorest group is so backwards. 00:43:18.730 --> 00:43:21.909 That's because they're benefiting off the labor and that's how it's always been. 00:43:21.911 --> 00:43:25.960 You benefit off those that do the work as a society or as a group. 00:43:26.349 --> 00:43:32.949 So if you're going to either stand and I guess that goes back to what Canon was saying, Amegy was saying, so you, so the fact is that you have to pick sides. 00:43:33.099 --> 00:43:33.789 You can't do both. 00:43:34.929 --> 00:43:37.389 Is that the back you either. 00:43:42.059 --> 00:43:43.960 Yeah, but it's only one L eBron. 00:43:47.860 --> 00:43:48.099 Yeah. 00:43:48.101 --> 00:43:51.159 I think, I think that the degrees, right? 00:43:51.161 --> 00:43:54.190 You c an't be a f ull b lown p icket i n every day. 00:43:54.730 --> 00:43:58.929 I'm going to city halls every day and playing basketball full time. 00:43:58.989 --> 00:43:59.260 Right. 00:43:59.530 --> 00:44:07.599 But I do think there's a middle ground where you can be playing, use your position to be an activist. 00:44:07.929 --> 00:44:08.199 Right? 00:44:08.201 --> 00:44:10.179 Like they, when they w ant, I can't breathe. 00:44:10.181 --> 00:44:12.010 T-shirts, that's one of the first things that came up. 00:44:12.969 --> 00:44:13.929 I can't breathe th ese s h irts. 00:44:14.260 --> 00:44:22.059 And I think if they host that press conference, if they do their donations th at t hey're like, yo, this is in the honor of Rihanna Taylor, you know what I'm saying? 00:44:22.061 --> 00:44:28.750 I think if they continue to se t l ight on these injustices that we're going through, that's th e w ay to like, yo, all these white people are watching us. 00:44:28.751 --> 00:44:29.880 Let's use our platform. 00:44:31.190 --> 00:44:31.429 Yeah. 00:44:31.440 --> 00:44:32.219 But we did 00:44:32.219 --> 00:44:32.969 That already. 00:44:33.539 --> 00:44:34.739 Jay we've been doing that. 00:44:34.849 --> 00:44:34.849 Yeah. 00:44:38.630 --> 00:44:42.170 [inaudible] I think it should be an ongoing thing. 00:44:42.170 --> 00:44:44.719 Like it shouldn't be like, yo, we going to do this all February. 00:44:44.989 --> 00:45:08.599 I think this should be like, yo, if we're going to play this season, every single game, every single, every single, if we going to move and be showing up to work, what we work in, but working with these, we're constantly reminded like, yo, this XYZ, all of the money that we have, this have to be some kind of contribution to like police or to police, uh, black people who are being killed by police. 00:45:08.630 --> 00:45:14.719 Or if we're going to do it, if they're going to do it, I think they have to continue, continue to fight. 00:45:14.780 --> 00:45:16.130 Because if not, what are they doing? 00:45:20.719 --> 00:45:21.980 I want to respond to that day. 00:45:22.400 --> 00:45:23.360 I have a long term goal. 00:45:24.679 --> 00:45:26.809 Like my own selfish reasons. 00:45:26.811 --> 00:45:33.559 I would love that because then we get to talk about the NBA, but I just think people will get desensitized exactly. 00:45:34.429 --> 00:45:42.380 And over and over, it'd be like another NBA cares commercial board game. 00:45:44.630 --> 00:45:53.449 Do we have a solution or is it just what I'm saying is for Kyrie and Avery Bradley that message of we're no longer entertaining. 00:45:54.139 --> 00:45:56.570 I think that'd be more powerful than anything.

a human race to have to see that happen. 00:48:24.360 --> 00:48:38.460 And I think because of that, that's been the biggest role up until this point, you know, white people have actually got on the test to see their own doing some despicable on camera. 00:48:42.030 --> 00:48:45.360 It a in't t here ain't no g uess what happened. 00:48:45.389 --> 00:48:52.469 It ain't no, if you don't feel something you just s aid, yeah, something's not right with you. 00:48:52.471 --> 00:48:58.679 If you don't feel something in a, in a pit of your stomach, watching that man s cream for his life, t hen he cannot b reathe. 00:48:59.250 --> 00:49:07.949 M ama calling out for the most rent a nd t he, and the g uy t elling him, well, if you get in the car, y ou k now, y ou w ill be all right. 00:49:07.951 --> 00:49:09.150 He's asking, let me up. 00:49:09.210 --> 00:49:10.170 And they're not letting them up 00:49:10.530 --> 00:49:11.190 Minutes. 00:49:11.190 --> 00:49:11.190 . 00:49:12.360 --> 00:49:14.280 I don't even e ight m inutes straight like that. 00:49:14.280 --> 00:49:15.539 I a in't, I'm g onna keep it honest with you. 00:49:15.541 --> 00:49:22.019 Eight minutes and 20 seconds, 46, 48 minutes and 46 seconds. 00:49:22.260 --> 00:49:25.170 Someone o n y our n eck a nd his hands in his pocket, 00:49:26.550 --> 00:49:26.849 Three them 00:49:32.429 --> 00:49:33.690 It's, it's literally disgusting. 00:49:33.809 --> 00:49:34.559 It is disgusting. 00:49:34.710 --> 00:49:51.239 And I think, and I think that goes back to what, uh, GE was just saying about the allies now that we have, because of the blatant disrespect that we saw with, you know, rip George, Florida, uh, how are we treating our allies though? 00:49:51.599 --> 00:50:02.550 And I, and I bring this up because I think a lot of different communities are showing their support, but are they showing it in a genuine way for us to understand? 00:50:02.579 --> 00:50:16.500 Or are they just going with the moves and the motions, Jay, what do you think about that in terms of the allies that we have in our community, whether it's in the white community, the Asian community, or the Latino community are, is this genuine sort of support or are they just fixated on what's now? 00:50:18.030 --> 00:50:23.550 I can't speak for all allies, but I do know if we have actual allies, we need to embrace them. 00:50:23.820 --> 00:50:24.329 You know what I'm saying? 00:50:24.331 --> 00:50:30.079 Like if we have somebody who's willing to extend themselves to like, listen, I didn't realize she was that bad. 00:50:30.230 --> 00:50:36.590 Cause I think to your point, like the George Lloyd was just like a visual representation of what constantly happens in the black community. 00:50:37.039 --> 00:50:42.349 And I think a lot of white folks were taken off guard like, yo, this is crazy. 00:50:43.400 --> 00:50:48.110 Um, and I do think it opened up a lot of eyes, which is why we're starting to see such a diverse group of allies. 00:50:48.409 --> 00:50:51.980 So anybody that's willing to be an ally let's do it. 00:50:52.039 --> 00:50:55.489 But the, what I won't stand for is people who are performative allies. 00:50:55.670 --> 00:50:58.460 Like, listen, I'm going to do the black screen on who they are. 00:50:58.519 --> 00:51:00.050 I'm a write this post. 00:51:00.139 --> 00:51:01.820 I'm a retreat with this. 00:51:01.820 --> 00:51:04.039 Like I want actual action. 00:51:04.190 --> 00:51:11.900 Like if you're a person in power, like the dude from, um, Marina's husband or E's husband, the one that worked for, u h, Reddit. 00:51:12.349 --> 00:51:12.590 Y eah. 00:51:12.650 --> 00:51:20.989 A ctually t hat actually stepped down from a position, was like, listen, I'm stepping down from my C-level position, b ut I want a black person to take my place. 00:51:21.019 --> 00:51:22.460 T hat's actual a ction. 00:51:23.190 --> 00:51:28.039 I feel like if we have some people who are actual allies, I need action. 00:51:28.130 --> 00:51:30.260 Not just performance based t hings. 00:51:30.320 --> 00:51:31.579 Let's do actual a ction. 00:51:31.581 --> 00:51:41.420 So if you're willing to be an ally and you do have the ability and capability to be an ally, whether you're not in t he f irst m illion, n ot a C-suite person, but just stop the. 00:51:41.840 --> 00:51:47.420 If you see somebody m aking a n insensitive or bigoted joke, like, yo, that's not cool. 00:51:47.480 --> 00:51:48.050 That's not okay. 00:51:48.050 --> 00:51:48.739 That's not cool. 00:51:48.800 --> 00:51:49.489 Like speak up. 00:51:49.940 --> 00:51:54.769 I continue to be an ally and just actually be an ally, but I'm not g oing t o turn anybody away. 00:51:54.771 --> 00:51:56.179 Who's g oing t o h elp our f light. 00:51:56.181 --> 00:51:58.340 That's like an extra soldier on the battlefield. 00:51:58.550 --> 00:51:59.150 I'm all for that. 00:52:00.400 --> 00:52:06.429 Have either one of you guys had that experience with a n ally that you felt that wasn't being genuine GPO c annon, 00:52:06.519 --> 00:52:08.440 That wasn't being genuine, that wasn't 00:52:08.440 --> 00:52:09.010 Being genuine. 00:52:09.010 --> 00:52:15.820 Like they, like you felt as though it was something that we're doing, just because it's on national news because I have, 00:52:16.179 --> 00:52:29.920 I haven't, I haven't actually had a, actually had a coworker call me like maybe one week after j oining a nd n o w as like such a, she was so uncomfortable that it let me know that she was g enuine. 00:52:30.550 --> 00:52:35.590 She called was like, honestly, I wasn't g oing t o do it, but I couldn't just b e quiet anymore. 00:52:35.590 --> 00:52:37.869 And I didn't, it was just bothering me. 00:52:37.871 --> 00:52:45.130 And I don't know if this is inappropriate for the word situation, but I just feel like I have to speak up and she just k inda like poured her heart out. 00:52:45.130 --> 00:52:51.309 And I was just like, honestly, like just you calling and just letting

00:56:25.179 --> 00:56:25.929 Or is it not? 00:56:26.139 --> 00:56:27.610 Now when those conversations happen? 00:56:27.610 --> 00:56:32.380 I think we can always pick out if it's genuine or if it's something forced to do. 00:56:32.889 --> 00:56:43.239 But, but I think a lot of people in this society right now are those that are part of the white majority or those that are not in our community are looking to be a part of this movement only because it's national news. 00:56:43.900 --> 00:56:47.289 And I think most of those times it's going to come off as wrong. 00:56:47.320 --> 00:56:54.309 So if you are going to approach someone, I think the best conversation to have is something similar to what Jamie said, Hey, I'm not too much aware of this. 00:56:54.311 --> 00:56:58.539 I don't know what's going on, but if you need me, I'm here to listen. 00:56:58.541 --> 00:57:01.030 If you need me to come over and get a drink, I'm here.

00:57:01.030 --> 00:57:09.489 If it's things of the sort of, well, we're going to go the extra mile for you to feel satisfied, I'm going to give you a gift. 00:57:09.489 --> 00:57:10.690 I'm going to give you money. 00:57:10.690 --> 00:57:14.260 I'm going to give you this just because now I understand that black people are dying. 00:57:14.260 --> 00:57:14.260 . 00:57:15.699 --> 00:57:16.929 Black people have been down for you. 00:57:17.829 --> 00:57:23.170 And now because it's national news, you are enabled or you are told. 00:57:23.170 --> 00:57:25.239 And I think a lot of people are told what to do. 00:57:25.240 --> 00:57:27.820 They don't really feel a genuine interest in doing things. 00:57:28.179 --> 00:57:30.309 And I can spot that out a mile away. 00:57:30.670 --> 00:57:32.710 If you do that, I'm not saying everyone's done it. 00:57:32.710 --> 00:57:37.900 But I have certain experiences where I have been approached with that was a genuine thought and feeling of mine. 00:57:38.050 --> 00:57:41.349 Now, that's not saying it's right or wrong because I can't tell somebody's true intent. 00:57:41.679 --> 00:57:43.150 Like they may come off a certain way. 00:57:43.300 --> 00:57:54.489 But if you do have that intent in which you do not really know what's going on, or you do not feel that way, state that upfront, don't try to work around it and then give the political answer in order for it to move forward. 00:57:54.920 --> 00:57:55.960 That's that's been my experience. 00:57:57.599 --> 00:58:01.260 Do you feel like it's disingenuous when they actually broken? 00:58:02.250 --> 00:58:03.599 I feel like it's disingenuous. 00:58:03.630 --> 00:58:11.309 If I get the nature that it is being disingenuous, I could only go with how I feel about the situation and if I'm wrong, we can have a conversation about it. 00:58:11.429 --> 00:58:18.809 But if you step to me in a certain way, and it comes off a certain way, I'm going to say, you know me, I'm gonna say, Hey, it feels like a script. 00:58:18.929 --> 00:58:20.099 This feels like a script. 00:58:21.449 --> 00:58:22.050 I'll tell you this. 00:58:22.050 --> 00:58:26.099 I feel like this brought out, you know, both sides as, as it always does. 00:58:26.101 --> 00:58:29.250 You know, both sides of both players on both sides of the field. 00:58:29.730 --> 00:58:44.550 Um, because even in my, in my little complex here, like I would never even think that people would be worried about it so much, but yeah, like I can walk into my complex one t hen, and a few o ther white neighbors up in the front. 00:58:44.550 --> 00:58:50.340 You know, when you come in, they had a sign, t he p osters in their window, you know, black lives matter a nd all kinds of s tuff. 00:58:51.420 --> 00:58:53.340 And I'm like, wow, this is crazy. 00:58:53.340 --> 00:58:53.940 You know what I'm saying? 00:58:53.940 --> 00:58:55.889 Like, okay, one time. 00:58:55.891 --> 00:58:57.210 But th e w h ole t e am, you know what I mean? 00:58:57.210

00:59:42.800 --> 00:59:44.699 Everybody else is trying to be anonymous. 00:59:49.519 --> 00:59:56.900 Everybody saw you just throw a tantrum on a piece of paper, like so fast. 00:59:59.989 --> 01:00:04.489 I don't think every white person in the world ain't going to get, I was like,, did that really just happen? 01:00:04.639 --> 01:00:05.179 That's crazy. 01:00:07.519 --> 01:00:09.469 You gotta rip off a poster on a light. 01:00:10.730 --> 01:00:13.360 It's the same thing that happened in Huntington beach, bro. 01:00:13.420 --> 01:00:20.070 I was in Huntington beach and y'all the road was so divided on the left side was black lives matter. 01:00:20.170 --> 01:00:23.079 And people on the right side seemed like white supremacists. 01:00:23.110 --> 01:00:25.599 It was the most, everything I've ever seen in my life. 01:00:28.599 --> 01:00:30.130 Huntington beach is a central part. 01:00:35.309 --> 01:00:41.289 But the G's point though, like it's both sides and I'm kinda, I'm gonna go with Tyrese. 01:00:41.590 --> 01:00:44.079 Lot of something smells fish with the company. 01:00:44.800 --> 01:00:48.550 You know, like every company, it seems like every company has to make a steak. 01:00:50.230 --> 01:01:02.889 That's CR we know that people like all local bank of America said Ben, and Jerry's like, ministers, don't give a. 01:01:05.300 --> 01:01:06.730 If they look at that surface. 01:01:06.940 --> 01:01:11.699 And really think, you know, the people they live in, 01:01:12.820 --> 01:01:14.650 Dan let's have a real conversation. 01:01:14.650 --> 01:01:15.849 I hate that PR person. 01:01:17.170 --> 01:01:17.440 No, that. 01:01:17.980 --> 01:01:20.079 And so, you know what I'm saying? 01:01:20.081 --> 01:01:28.119 Like, people buying that, eating it up and it's, and it's creating this big storm of this is what I should be doing because everyone's doing it. 01:01:29.050 --> 01:01:31.030 And it just feels like a lot like lip service. 01:01:31.030 --> 01:01:35.409 So I'm with tea that I'm not necessarily fully embracing people right away. 01:01:35.739 --> 01:01:36.849 I'm a more so teaching. 01:01:36.860 --> 01:01:42.429 I'm not part of that generation, that camp that's like, yo, Hey, go learn on your own. 01:01:42.760 --> 01:01:43.329 You know what I'm saying? 01:01:43.539 --> 01:01:44.469 It's a lot of information out there. 01:01:44.480 --> 01:01:45.219 Do the research. 01:01:45.630 --> 01:01:46.750 Then there's so much going on there. 01:01:46.751 --> 01:01:56.500 I don't know, but I'm not, I ain't got time to just sit there and research how to be better to black people. 01:01:57.429 --> 01:01:57.429 Right? 01:02:01.599 --> 01:02:01.599 Exactly. 01:02:02.730 --> 01:02:07.179 I'm looking at other stuff about the LGBT community or the mental illness community. 01:02:07.659 --> 01:02:10.750 But I do know there's certain words I'm not going to say. 01:02:13.630 --> 01:02:14.500 And I learned that. 01:02:15.579 --> 01:02:15.969 I'll be honest. 01:02:15.971 --> 01:02:23.940 I did say though, that's where friend that's messed up. 01:02:24.539 --> 01:02:28.380 I don't even care that much to be disrespectful to that class of people. 01:02:28.380 --> 01:02:29.789 So I'm not even, you know, better. 01:02:29.791 --> 01:02:30.559 You do better, man. 01:02:30.630 --> 01:02:31.199 Exactly. 01:02:31.289 --> 01:02:33.389 And so that's, that's really what I want from white people. 01:02:33.780 --> 01:02:37.320 I don't need you to go out there and spend a lot of bread unless you're in a position. 01:02:38.400 --> 01:02:41.880 But really what I need is just in your inner circle in your daily, but you carry your phone. 01:02:42.030 --> 01:02:46.440 I can't measure that, but you see some o n like i t, 01:02:49.460 --> 01:02:50.269 I'm gonna take it from New York. 01:02:50.271 --> 01:02:51.050 If you see something, 01:02:52.340 --> 01:02:53.269 Say something safer. 01:02:55.489 --> 01:02:56.300 That's my point. 01:02:56.750 --> 01:02:59.449 If you see something, say something, I think we're all in this together. 01:02:59.451 --> 01:03:04.190 And I think just to, just to close this segment up, it is about unity. 01:03:04.250 --> 01:03:08.179 I just mentioned the Huntington beach view or where I was in Huntington beach. 01:03:08.181 --> 01:03:11.389 And just the division that I saw does not help us. 01:03:11.659 --> 01:03:16.610 And I, and I do want to praise a lot of the people that's going on to the protest because it is multi. 01:03:17.150 --> 01:03:18.469 Uh, it is very diverse. 01:03:18.739 --> 01:03:19.579 It is very diverse. 01:03:19.581 --> 01:03:23.090 If you are out here in these streets, I know cannon, he meant to a couple of protests. 01:03:23.090 --> 01:03:25.940 I've been to a protest or two out here in Irvine. 01:03:25.940 --> 01:03:30.230 I'm not sure if, u h, Jamie or G abby has, and that's no slight on anything. 01:03:31.190 --> 01:03:32.239 It's a pandemic out here. 01:03:32.240 --> 01:03:32.809 That's number one. 01:03:32.811 --> 01:03:43.789 I want people to realize that, but number two, but number two, the support that we're getting from these allies are those that are willing to be down with back light.

01:03:44.150 --> 01:03:44.840 Ma dn ess has been huge. 01:03:44.840 --> 01:03:48.710 And I do just wan t to put that out there, like Jamie said, support your supp ort is m an. 01:03:48.889 --> 01:03:51.110 And that, an d tha t's always a huge thing that we do. 01:03:51.409 --> 01:03:52.929 I think I'm going to get into the fact s, ma n. 01:03:52.940 --> 01:03:54.710 I know you guys got a couple of facts that you deal with. 01:03:54.710 --> 01:04:03.820 You mentioned that one of the facts that I had w as b lac k economic independence will lead to another civil war. 01:04:07.820 --> 01:04:07.820 Okay. 01:04:08.460 --> 01:04:14.210 Imagine if the biggest demographic consumer demographic just says, it. 01:04:14.599 --> 01:04:20.989 This has happened before fellows it's happened before, when t here's b een the resources said, it. 01:04:21.409 --> 01:04:23.809 The world became divided fa cts. 01:04:23.840 --> 01:04:25.039 I want to know y' all o pinion on that. 01:04:26.510 --> 01:04:28.099 Nah, man, that's right on the money. 01:04:28.280 --> 01:04:30.650 I mean, you saw what happened with the black wall street. 01:04:31.239 --> 01:04:40.639 So they see black people getting some money, not a granddaughter from years ago, but they was making serious cheese and that blue up, do wn w i th i t k i lled t he whole to wn. 01:04:40.699 --> 01:04:42.650 Ca use e v erybody d o wnward. 01:04:43.070 --> 01:04:55.039 So if w e really became producers to where we were independent as a people, almost like people are, I d e al w ith people, yo u g o t t o t h ink b a ck a nd they go od. 01:04:56.300 --> 01:04:59.000 They're excellent at dealing within their own co mmunity. 01:04:59.780 --> 01:05:12.409 And they bu ilt s uch a ni ce b ridge and network that it c an't really get that, you know, to d i sturbed f rom the outside that this is over years and years and years to o t h ough. 01:05:12.739 --> 01:05:14.329 I mean, and they also Je wish. 01:05:16.579 --> 01:05:43.929 So J ewish Jewish, wh ile w e c a n d o, I don't know if you ever saw the fa mily, but if you pay attention to that video, he shows like his family years go ing f r om l i ke 2 0, 20, 2,400 to 3,200 fa milies. 01:05:45.400 --> 01:05:57.280 And one of the periods of the year though, it was like sil ver wa r between black people and wh i te an d 3, 200 or whatever the year was bla ck pe o ple. 01:06:01.030 --> 01:06:02.769 B ut I do think it' s go ing to have to take the ci vil war. 01:06:02.771 --> 01:06:06.190 I mean, that's the only whatever they ever had. 01:06:06.940 --> 01:06:07.510 They took it. 01:06:08.320 --> 01:06:08.530 Yea h. 01:06:08.539 --> 01:06:15.820 T hey bro ught it That we didn't have right hand. 01:06:23.210 --> 01:06:26.199 We h ave, we have a n h our, 01:06:30.000 --> 01:06:31.530 But now man, that's a fact, man. 01:06:31.710 --> 01:06:34.530 I know another fact that I always tell people is that yo, you need white friends. 01:06:36.030 --> 01:06:43.079 If you don't got white friends, white friends, if you don't have white friends in 2020, I don't think you understand the full picture. 01:06:43.590 --> 01:06:49.739 I don't, I don't think it's good to not have a diverse mindset or just to be able to sympathize with another group. 01:06:50.190 --> 01:06:51.630 So if you don't have white friends, get somebody 01:06:52.710 --> 01:06:55.800 Friends, give me friends like my friends, 01:06:56.909 --> 01:06:57.929 Honestly too. 01:06:58.920 --> 01:06:59.789 Come on now. 01:07:00.300 --> 01:07:00.809 Wait, hold on. 01:07:00.811 --> 01:07:02.039 Not one of y'all g ot t o wait for him. 01:07:02.039 --> 01:07:10.949 , you ain't got one white person you can call on and be like, yo, this is some bro. 01:07:11.250 --> 01:07:11.880 Like, what's your, 01:07:11.880 --> 01:07:12.570 I don't know, man. 01:07:13.980 --> 01:07:23.280 I'm not as strong as the other one needs to be the other way around every white friend that every white person, 01:07:28.409 --> 01:07:32.969 If a black, if a black person has a white friend, white people don't have black 01:07:32.969 --> 01:07:33.239 Friends. 01:07:35.039 --> 01:07:35.309 So 01:07:35.309 --> 01:07:38.099 It's not mutually exclusive is what you're telling me. 01:07:41.099 --> 01:07:44.070 I agree with Jean on that one b ecause, because you g ot t o think about i t. 01:07:44.070 --> 01:07:46.769 Like in society, we always get the white perspective. 01:07:47.010 --> 01:07:52.079 Like more times than not, we get exposed to white people's perspective o n t hings. 01:07:53.119 --> 01:07:54.030 T he people in power. 01:07:55.889 --> 01:08:00.269 T hey're the ones that don't run this, hire these don't hire these. 01:08:00.750 --> 01:08:14.309 S o I think it's
