 As racists, why do we need to bust the nicks in here? We could be one of those afro-centric, telling us about, you know, our asses and stuff. But who's opinion about that? Let's just watch your hands. I don't know why. I'm sorry, it was like a black man. Whenever they want to portray poverty or something, they always want to point to, you know, just being a little black boy. They're like, you know, some kids in Africa know. Well, we started with, like, there's kids everywhere. So I think that would be black. I feel like they should have, they could have shown, like, a more diverse setting of children versus just one little black boy. That's, you know, just getting those numbers tomorrow. I mean, I don't take offense to it because the, whatever their foundation is may sponsor, like, black kids. So if that's their target to feed the kids in Africa, whatever the child care, whatever that association does, then they're going to promote that. They're not going to show a white starving kid because they're not trying to help white starving kids. I didn't take offense to it. However, I would critique it. And like she said, I would definitely have a better representation of the population because it's not just black kids of starving. It's white kids out here starving. It's basically kids out here starving. Starving is not just a black people thing. I didn't like how she was feeding him like a doggy treat. Every time he got on his knees to do something or handed her something in bed or something like that, you know, I feel like, like you said it could have been, he could have been doing something else if he rewarded the money or why did, if it's a sponsorship, why seem to be rewarded? You know, like. But the play on words was the fact that he was treated like a dog. Yeah, like dogs are getting better. So that's doing what the dog would do to get a treat. Yeah. I have a problem with that too. Why? I don't get why they like to, I mean, I did what they were saying, but why compare a child to a dog? Not him being black, but a child of all, why put him to a dog? Because it was making like the statement. That's the shocking statement. Like dogs are getting better than kids. But that's why they do that. I think the idea behind the meaning is that, you know, they take it from like statistic saying that more black people are empowered. So that's why black people are there. And then it kind of give us something that we know we used to, but we don't like to see it. That's just a bad marketing strategy altogether. Like that's why I guess I never saw him teed. It's not the better way to present that whole cause, but that was just like a bad marketing strategy. It's going to be a white woman and a black child. Maybe they could have shown multiple other children. Now black women feeding a black child. Okay, because we don't donate to our own cause anyway. I mean, it would have red better. So what about like a black woman feeding a white child? But that's not racist. That's racist too. I think it's because that's more of a stereotype. So what if you wouldn't have seen the race of the kid? Like then what? It wouldn't really matter because then you're under an umbrella of just the population of hungry kids. But I think because we are so used to this stereotype, especially in our day in age where we don't so much racism between police officers and all the other kinds of stuff. That's interesting. The commercial was from an organization called Fina Child. And they, I think they made that commercial like 2008, but they never got to air it because of so much backlash. But their point behind it was towards the end that most domestic girls keep better than some kids. But that was like an artistic interpretation of that fact. Like they meant to shock you. But according to them, they didn't see a white woman black child. They just saw a woman with a child. But you know, to a black person you might be like, oh, there's the white man keeping this down. Or to a white person you might be like, oh, you know, they don't have a better dog. But the problem with this whole situation, the reason, you know, I thought it would be a good topic is because if something like that seems racist, like whether or not that woman is Mother Teresa or the organization is actually helping people just because they insinuated that a kid is just as good as a dog and a kid happens to be black, it's racist. So if the kid, if the lady is black and the kid is white, is that racist also? Do we think that's racist? Not so much like, some people might be a minute by it, but I feel like not as many people would be a minute by it because like, I think you have said because it's a stereotype that, you know, black kids are poor versus, they're not really, that stigma is not really held against white kids that they're poor, you know. So I feel like it probably might shock some people or, you know, offend some people, but not for most people. So is it racist because it confends the most, the biggest amount of people? It's racist. So it's not racist because it's racist, it's racist because it's a stereotype. It's racist because of whatever the person who created it felt. Intention. That's the hardest thing. But we don't know. Okay, it's just my intention. Yeah. If some people act like means of black people, they just mean people. And they'll add just as mean to a white person. But that person, that old white man is racist. You know, I wouldn't consider it racist. I'm not saying that. The way it looks exactly, like that's the first thing that jumps in. Don't worry about the other girls in USC who get suspended. Yeah. You hear about it? Right. Oh, she said the problem that you would see white guys, niggers, parking. The competent professor. Yeah. Yeah. You gotta do a while. Hold up. I got the picture. Yeah. Well, yeah. And you know, because she wrote niggers, first of all, she's been suspended. She's about to be expelled. Whacker. Whacker. Whacker. And she's pretty much waiting to expulsion. And double ACP involved and all that kind of shit. So I thought to myself, first of all, I was an offender. The way I looked at it, and you guys might disagree, the way I looked at it, I would have been more offended if she said black people. Because I feel like when you say nigger, you're talking about a specific type of person. I don't classify myself as a nigger. So I'm like, yeah. What about that? Well, we know that her classification of the word nigger was not. 22 different people. Yeah. We know that the name of the whole 800 persons who was using it were white people. Right. She meant black people I know are. Like I said, it's what the person's intention is. Her intention was to say black people are using up a Wi-Fi. Or whatever the why she wrote the nigger on board, which is me talking. Right. And you would think that they would realize you can't do this in this name. It's like, we just had this on at home. We just had things like this pop up. And it's so, they're like, I don't know how to say they, but these people that are continuing to mess it up, no matter who the race, are just ignorant to the fact that you will get in trouble for this. This is not okay. They care. They don't care. And that's actually was more offensive to me. They don't even carry that. Yeah. It's like they're going backwards. Right. There was an error where they were scared of the black person. Exactly. Scared of NAACP because of, or even if we talk about like gay rights and all that, there was an error where we were very sensitive not to step on toes. That's no more. You are allowed to freely have your opinion about anybody and voice it and not expect the entire human race. And that's just messed up. I feel like that also might be because like it's been like underground for so long. Like it might be publicly eradicated, but because it's been manifesting underground for so long, it's starting to surface. And, you know, it's starting to come something like, oh, that's a shocker, but we all know it's still there. It's just not there publicly, but it's still there. And now it's starting to become a public. So what's bringing it out is social media. Social media has exposed a lot of different people. We would have, you know, every one of these things, things like Yikyak and Twitter, like it's exposing so much that we thought was gone. And it's just bringing it back up. I find that interesting because y'all said it's like we're going back like they're not afraid of the black man anymore. I watched a video on a Facebook of this white man. He was saying that the reason that there is so much racism is because they are so scared of the black man. They're scared, they're still scared of the vote that's going to happen because they know that they put black people down for so long, or any minority really. They put them down for so long and act like they were so beneath them that they're still, they're trying to overcompensate now. Like now it's more over conversation rather than it's not necessarily them no longer being afraid, but it's them over-compensating. So he specifically told a white man, he said, you need to get over yourself. You can't talk to the white people. You need to get over it. You don't have superiority over anybody. You don't have rights to anything just because you're white. And I find it really interesting because I feel like he was saying a lot of things that minorities can speak. But if we say it, it's more put in the wrong way. Kind of building on to what she just said. I also think it's a matter, I think that we can't, not necessarily we in this room, but as a race, we can't get that mad when, because I'm personally more offended by the word nigger than nigger. Because I feel like we go around saying nigger stop, or nigger tease or whatever. And I feel like you make them comfortable. Like me, I went to high school in Ohio and I went to a primary white honor school and it's like the black people in my school, they didn't care pretty much. It was basically just a lot of people there that just didn't care. And they made the white people feel comfortable. A lot of white people have said nigger to my face. It's like to my face and it looked up to me to not be the stereotype to lash out, but to kind of educate them or let them know it was unacceptable. And even coming down south, I think it's more touching than it is ignored. But I think we make them feel more comfortable. And we kind of make it okay for that kind of stuff. Some of us, I don't think we stand under one ground. I think we say that we're offended by it, but then we'll be like, oh, this time even Kelly, she's like, you know, type of thing. That's the problem, man. Because, you know, to my view, more African-Americans are racist. They're racist to their own kind and to more other people. Because if you saw a Saudi Arabian working, automatically your thought is like not a level. You know what I mean? Because of like that scare or whatever, or what happened on not a level, but I know that they're not trying to be racist, but that's just what happens. I mean, that's, I don't... I thought that's my prejudice. Yeah, that's not what's serious. That's my prejudice. Because everyone is prejudiced. If you see something that's a free judgment, but whether you act on that, that's what, you know, you're based off of their race or based off of their appearance, that's the discriminatory part. I mean, there's nothing wrong with being prejudiced with something you all are. Don't discriminate. I think with the calling on the N or like nigga, nigga, nigga, like when Kentucky lost to Wisconsin and he called the big, they called Frank the nigga, they were able to say it had been taken away out of Congress. But it's racist or it's not. So it's not, we're going to have to just kill the double standard. Like I can say it with a white person. If your homegirl called you a big, oh, it's cool, but if a guy called you a big, you don't know what color he is. Oh, I'm ready to fight them. So it's a double standard. It's funny, because me and all the people who talk about this he was saying the same thing that you were saying. And I was saying, I've never been cool enough with a person of a different race. I've never been cool enough with them so they can come up to me and be like, hey, yo, what's up, my nigga? Though I do say nigga, but I make a conscious effort to try not to say nigga when I'm a mixed company, because I do get offended if somebody else was saying to me. So because I'm so used to saying the word nigga, it still comes out of my mouth, but I at least try not to say the mixed company. So nobody else will get the, yeah, they won't get comfortable. We go back to the intention. I don't feel any white person that I demand is just that cool that they just go, oh yeah, nigga's my word, you know, I just call him my nigga, because he's my nigga. I feel that he's like, yo, what's up, my nigga? It's like, hey, can they get you? Hey, was that funny? No, I don't like that. I'm never going to be at a comfortable standard for them to say that, because I know there's a, there is some type of little backlash behind it. Yeah, because I, they were saying that for a reason. Yeah, because I feel like once, once they become comfortable, it's like, if anything happens that you make them mad, that word will come out, but it won't come out in the same way. Yeah. But what if he said that that way? When it was cool, it was comfortable when he said, oh, yo, what's up, my nigga? But when he come back and y'all are beefing, that next thing's like, yo, I'm not missing a guy. Would it not be nigga at that time? Like, oh, you call me a nigga? Not even the fact that he said he's going to knock you out. He called me a nigga now. But like, she said, like, nigga and nigga. Like, I don't think nigga means hey, you black, whatever, whatever, like, I've heard white people calling. He's like, nigga, what do you look like? You know what I'm saying? So it's not that hey, I'm calling you black, so what about white people calling each other nigga? What is that? They're naked. They're naked. They're naked. It wouldn't be all right. It wouldn't be all right. I see their intent for it. They're intended not to be rude when they say what's up. I understand. I'm not going to, I don't like it, but I understand that they're not trying to be angry at me. That when they throw that E.R. on there, that you can tell that that's anger and hate. When they do what's up, my nigga, that's nine times out of ten. They're doing that because they want to be cool with you. Exactly. But I'm going to tell them that's not going to come over. You can say the same thing about the word bitch. Right. It's one of those words. Like I said, it's one of those words that has like a, it's like a double meaning. It's a double story. It's okay when some person says it, but it's not like it's your own state. Personally, I believe you are what you ask it to be. If somebody called me a nigga, and I don't think I'm a nigga, why would I be offended? Me being offended says more about me being offended. But like I said, it comes with the connotation of it. You can't tell anybody's connotation of it. You can, you can, you can assume. No. You can assume. You can assume. You can assume. You can assume. You can become several things. Yeah. You can assume. I can say that I am. Can I get some yoga? Yes. Are we all coming with a page? Really? Umm. No. They're coming with help, uh. They can never bebudget again. I mean persons of glow. Uh. But they can never be allowed to catch theimes. Hey you are, All right, so would that like offend you if I called you back? You can say whatever you want about me and I'll tell that to anybody they can say whatever they want about me if it doesn't if It's not true. You can say it anytime you want to if people say hey, you don't think you can keep saying You want to call me? I know I'm not keep going So that's just me personally Yeah Because the fact that we can thought around each other and it just be some light shit as soon as the white person says it's a It's a it's a it's a right. Oh, you don't say that's giving them power over us Not that not the reverse people think it's cool that white people are scared to say maybe that does more for them than us Yeah, I Mean think about it the fact that somebody through one simple word can change your whole move your whole day your whole freakin Your attitude that's power not for you, but for them That goes with any words, but the word nigga go ahead My thing is If that's the case and why people who came before us why do they Take you know the word nigga seriously and cause the same people that's me Do they know how to say my says by as you have right now about doing the word too much fire No, why do you feel that way? I feel like the people that came before us like we as black people we can say Well, I don't like the same nigga because they don't know what my people struggled to what we didn't struggle through it So really we can't say well, I struggled because we did we didn't pick no cotton now It was nobody's house lane so I feel like they witnessed it they were there it was used to put them down That's why they take so much That's not even like give me power that goes back to those people yelling at them Hosing them down sick of dollars on them that word was he's crowded at them. Wow that happened Okay, that's where the angle comes from. That's what you think you think they went through all that so that's To You should get a But but in the sense of the word Where So So As slang we didn't start that in the 90s to my neighbors. We are ones who made it cool or hit word. It's always been their language, our language. And we still, even in the 40s, the 30s, the 20s, when we still hit holds and had to enter in on the brick roads and couldn't drink out the same water. They didn't like white person saying that. I don't like white person saying that. And I can't, there's nothing that can make me comfortable with that. Can I ask you a question? Sure. Why do I not like that word? Why do I not like the word? Because I honestly feel a person's intentions of saying that, a Caucasian's person's intentions. We've got an Indian term. And this might sound as ignorant as it could be in the world. He's Indian. I mean, he was born here and everything, but he could say the word again, wouldn't that faze me at all? I don't like that word because of the histories behind it. And I feel like it also depends on how we use it, because the definition of it is Indian. It definitely means black Indian, right? I think the Caucasian person uses it around a black person. I do not just get my personal approval. And I'm from Boston. I'm from the whitest area in the world. And maybe that's why I feel like that, because I know it's not insane that because they're cool enough that many black people, it ain't that many of us have that. If one of them said it, I know full fact there's some type of Indian. You know, I call him my near at the end of it. Like, I feel like they're, like, they're getting off on it. I think it'll do it. It'll do it. It'll do it. You don't choose that, but sit or you never know how they feel about it. I think it's because his experience with white people with saying the word has never been because he was cool with them. It's always been a bad experience, mine has too. My experience, if somebody, if a white person has ever called me a nigger, it wasn't like, oh, she, my nigger, it's been, she's a nigger. I don't like her. That's why I take offense with a white person. That's the connotation. So then somebody, you know, white people call you a nigger. Yes, I've been called a nigger. Yes. I've been called a nigger in high school, middle school. Like, I've been called a nigger. Like y'all say South Carolina is, you know, South in general, it's like the suppressed days where the black stills stick to the black, the white stills stick to the black. Go to Boston, go to those white areas, predominantly white areas. There's no mixture. I don't have a good, like, experience with Caucasians. You know, at all. So for me personally, your perception is your reality. My perception of a white person calling me a nigger has never been just genuine, what do you call it? Power of a dear man. What if he's just the whole Southern house of dollars? So their intentions might be the same. But just the way they show it. In Boston they might be more showy, but a white person here will help you out and be part of the KKK. I'll be the police. I'm talking about people. These people do not mullies. People we are, they do not cross that line. There is no, there is no just, hey, we're all cool and it's almost still like segregated schools and everything. By gifts, there's the Irish, there's the white, there's Puerto Ricans and the blacks and the Dominicans all over here in the pocket. We look at South, they look at Dorchester, Rochester. It's not as mixed here. We have, you know, I mean, like either way, it doesn't matter, there's rich black people here, there's rich white people. It's real, everybody's cool and kind of cool. So I'm going to say, are they racist? Are they racist? I'm not saying they're racist, but I understand that word. So if you say cracker, are you racist? Yeah. Why? Because I'm going to be calling them crackers. What do I mean if I call them crackers? You know that as you say. So what do you mean when you call a white person cracker? What do I say? What do you mean when you call them? The answer that for me, when you call them. You say, okay, cracker, say it here. What do you mean if I call them crackers? What do you mean if I say cracker? That's what I'm talking about. That's what I'm talking about. You need to write it on. I don't know. I'm just like, oh my God. I'm going to say, are they racist? I'll say cracker when I jump around. I don't really say cracker, but if I say cracker, it's just about them. And that's what I'm going to say. But he actually said, if you say cracker, is that a racist? Yeah, it's a racist. So when I said it, why do you make me racist behind that? Nectar, you can pull in a general statement if you would say that. What do you mean by a general statement? Oh, I would pull in talking to you. If I pull in a general statement, no, you're not racist. No, if I pull in talking to you, if I pull in somebody, yeah. But I don't see how it's okay for me to call him a racist if he doesn't feel comfortable with that. It's not. If he's not comfortable with it, then if somebody told me, if I say, hey, yo, what up, my nigga, and you told me I'm not comfortable with what you call me a nigga, I'm not gonna call you a nigga no more. Just like if in this vice versa, if somebody was to, if I was to go to a white person, and we could all be like, hey, what up, my cracker? If they tell me don't call me a cracker, I'm not gonna call him a cracker. So it's a matter of respect. It's not, it's not just because you're black, you can say nigga. Or just because I'm black, I can call anybody a nigga. If they're not comfortable with the word, then I'm not gonna do it because that's disrespectful. And at the same time, 9 times out of 10, you ain't gonna see a black person talking to a white person. You're a self-cracker. Yeah, we don't do that. We don't do that. There's a word that I say on stuff. I still want to do that. But white people ain't going around calling each other crackers either. Yeah, exactly. No, that's between two words. And that's why we own this word. Even with the word ghetto, it comes from the Jewish housing. They don't even use that. But we've done so they've ordered it. Hey, you've been in ghetto. You don't even know what these are. Yeah, I mean, acceptable. We did. We did that. So taking offense to it, I think it's hypocrisy. I understand. You can't steal some shit from somebody who used that to oppress you. Use it on each other. Yeah. And then when they use it... I'm gonna disagree. That's how it works. I mean, it's not right, but that's how it works. I'm not gonna say I'm not ready to fight every white person who said that. I'm not ready to fight every white person who said that. I'm still very vocal and I'm going to check whoever felt comfortable enough to say it to me. Because if they said it to my dad, he's not going to check you the same way on the job. If they said it to one of my cousins, they're not going to check you. This is me looking out for you. Hey, bro, that's not cool. Because I don't want you to come comfortable and say it's me where you go out in the room. If you say it to me, we'll surround them. If you get comfortable enough to say that to me and I do it in the dark and then we in the light. And you say that again, yo. How do you learn this? How do you learn this? By somebody telling you about you doing it. So if I'm like with kids, I can tell my son not to do something and I guarantee he'll do it. And when it hurts, he won't do it. You tell them, hey, don't say it or anything. I'm telling you, this is going to happen. And that ain't going to happen. When they give us in the mouth, I guarantee they won't say anything again. But at least I can say I promise you something. But do you? Okay, so you're doing it for the second time? No, I told you so. Because it's like this. Because what's in the mouth might be me the next time. Because I gave you that warning. Oh, that's acceptable with it. If you are giving them a warning for you next time, you're going to get a repression to it. Okay. But I'm saying like, you don't have to teach everyone. Like if I tell you that it's this and you go out and do it, it's not like, oh, I told you so. A lot of people live for, I told you so, and hey, I was right. Hey, some of you have to make that mistake on their own. But at the same time, though, if you're calling me a digger, I'm going to let you know. Look, don't do that. I can't promise you what to do. Yeah, okay. To me? Yeah, but he's telling like, hey, don't even want you to call him a digger. No, I'm saying don't say it around me. Okay. Yeah. What if it was a black girl who wrote crack on the board? It would know. So what role do you think the media plays in this? What media will boost it up? That's a hot topic right now. You think it's a reason for it. But that's a very big one. It just kind of plays into that. The problem is to take our attention on something that's more important than I'll tell you, it's stuff that's going on that's way more important than that girl right in the middle and us right in the cracker. And then we don't know what they're taking your eyes off of. I honestly feel they do that. They will pull up a fluff. They'll throw a smoke screen. Yeah, but they had to distract us for something really happening. That was really happening. Everybody's scared to cough around each other for two seconds. And then, oh, the bowl is just gone. Yeah, and I think right now these small racist things that are happening are trying to distract us from the big things. Because now you don't see anybody still marching for Mike Brown. You don't see any protests or stuff to one. It's almost like it's not, yeah, it's kind of a rare thing. But the thing, no, just because it's not being portrayed, there's still marches right now for Mike Brown. There's still marches in Atlanta. Well, okay, well, that's those two things are taking the place of the big thing that's coming up. They're taking the masks from me. They're taking, like, the masks. We were all focused on, you know, the Ferguson situation and all of that. So when they threw that smoke screen up, there's still some loyal people down there in Ferguson who's probably still standing on the corner right now. But the masks, they distracted the rest of us. I don't necessarily see it as a smoke screen. I see it as, like, this is another incident that just happened that's related to this one. You know what I mean? It's still... You talking about the shooting? I'm talking about the shooting. I'm talking about the nigger. I'm talking about the SAE. Like, it's still all related. You know what I'm saying? It's not the same situation, but it's still related. It's still a race. Exactly. It's right. They didn't take the attention off of this. They're just like, yeah, this is happening. It's similar to this now. It didn't take the attention off anything. It just said, this is the same thing that's happening over here. I'm about to say this is off the wall, shit. Y'all feel free to disagree. But I've always felt that a white person who is not racist... Let me not say not racist. Not prejudice against black people. That's an extraordinary white person. Because if you want to look at subliminal messages, if you want to look at even obvious messages, everything around us, from the news to media to everything else, tells us that black people are bad. So for a white person to look beyond that, I think that's exceptional, personally. We find anybody with a prejudice. I feel like that's not... I feel like you can't find anybody without prejudice. You might find people who aren't racist, but I feel like in everybody, there's a little bit of prejudice. If you ask a lot of white people, you ask them, what is one food that black people eat? Fried chicken is the first thing they want to say. That's prejudice because you're boxing everybody into one category. So I honestly feel like there's nobody in this world that doesn't have a small bit of prejudice in them. Now they might not act on that prejudice and discriminate, but there's nobody in this world that doesn't have prejudice, because I'm prejudice. Okay, when does prejudice become racism? Exactly. It's the action. It's a fight. The definition of racism entails a person who is empowered above another race. You have to say, for instance, you have a boss that chooses not to hire black people. That's racism. Now, prejudice is a white person seeing a group of black people and choosing to walk on the other side of the street. That's prejudice. What if that boss is also black? It's still the prejudice. It's racism. It's racism. Is he racist? Yeah. He's still racist though. He's still racist. Take away the color. It's an act like he said. When you act on it, it doesn't have anything to do with the color. Black, white, blue, green. He didn't choose to hire those black people because of whatever the stereotype and prejudice is. So that's racist. Even if it's a white. I'm going to throw that walking on the cross street racist. I'll do that too. I'm not going to throw that. I think black people are racist persons towards black people in general. But is that considered racist? Yeah. I think the mask doesn't consider it racist. Walk on the street and be smart. You know the race, you know the experience. I'm not going to walk through a game. I didn't know it. Yeah. We call white people who do that racist. I did know it. She said it's smart. It doesn't justify the prejudice. It doesn't justify the prejudice. It's an issue with children. That doesn't always go with it. Yeah. Exactly. So if it was kind of black guys with glasses and suspenders and all of that, like Urkel walking across the street, the white person still. Would you cross the street then? Yeah. It's processional. It's processional. But I don't think I think. In general, I'm walking across the street. It's processional. Because it's either one. Either one may look some type of way. I'll be honest with you. If I see five, I'll do some group like boys. You got tattooed and all. I'm still going to cross the street. It's processional. Just like with the Trey Bond. Like walking. Like that's a perception that everybody knows that. Hey, you got a hoodie on. You're black and a white. They look like it's just a second thing that. But if he had on a bull's hide and a bottle in his hand with some suspenders, he probably would have got it. So don't put yourself in that situation. Like that's the conversation that my parents had with me. Like don't put yourself in. It doesn't matter if you want to accept it. But that's real. That stuff is real. So I'm not about the word baggy pants in the white name hood with a hoodie and. Look suspicious. Yes. Look suspicious. The thing is it ain't fair. It's not fair. You admit it. It ain't fair. It's not fair. You don't have. We don't have a long leash. Yeah. We don't have it. So we have to do it. We have to survive. It's not fair. But we have to abide by it. Exactly. It's not fair. I agree with you that we shorten our leash because most of the ones with hoods on have walked around and robbed people. Right. Right. They have done a certain attitude to give. The world. I'm just like you. I'm just like you. I'm just like you. I'm just like you. I'm just like you. I'm just like you. I'm just like you. I'm just like you. I'm just like you. Or just like you. Or like you said, I told you so cool. To prevent from happening. Like, thanks ace. I'll tell him it's thanks. Oh yeah. Have y'all ever heard that hate comes from fear? But you just can't get a newborn. Yeah. It's not very. Oh yeah, I've been doing this where I've been. for a whole trip. Bobby, you got clean shoes on. I'm really happy. That's it. You're walking out of bed. A little skeptical. It's less because I'm dark. Yeah, you look good. I'm pretty. I can have anything. I've got some skinny jeans on. Hold it. They still, I feel they still. They're not done either way, bro. I can really look like that. They're not done either way, bro. I can really look like that. They're not done either way, bro. I can really look like that. They're not done either way, bro. We saw a lot in the man up here. Let's see if they're like skinny people. What? No, no. Let me go ahead. Let me go ahead. He really good. No, no, no. He's a perfect, perfect student. Still, got kicked out by the police. Yeah. Still... It's been trying my best. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No matter what you look like sometimes. I got lost one time. I was walking and it was on. I was going to get pizza. And I got lost. And I ended up like on that hill. It was dark. My phone was dead and all that. And so, some dude, like... I didn't even know I was on that neighborhood. Some dude, you better get out of here. I'ma call the cops. I was walking, I met with my hand. have a lady on a nothing. I'm asking her. So, why the cat on my thing? But I still can't. Yeah, I told him that. He said that. No, no, no, no. But for me, I might not have gotten a one. Yeah. I'm saying, I'm not gonna get a one. I'm saying, I'm not gonna get a one. I'm saying, I'm not gonna get a one. This is how you put it on. I'm saying, whoo, whoo, whoo. They were seeking. They just fucking figured. Yeah. But I think, like, people general, black, white or whatever, like, this thing, they do have to have a hard shell, like, I don't know how to be a teacher. I don't know what I'm trying to do. But I think, like, people general, black, white or whatever, like, this thing, they do have to have a hard shell, like, I don't know how to be a teacher. And they're like, you gonna get a job, you know what I'm saying? Because you're black. Like, me being black has nothing to do with me wanting to teach. Like, that's my desire to teach. Like, I know that I'm gonna be an efficient teacher, whether I'm black or white. So, they're saying, hey, you're gonna get a job if you're black. Okay? You're gonna get a job if you're black. That's it. But they will hire us. Because there's a black male teacher. Yeah, exactly. There's a black male teacher. Yeah. A male teacher. I'll tell you what I'm saying. I'm gonna hire you. Because it's the truth. Yeah, it's true. We're gonna hire you. We're gonna hire you. We're gonna hire you. We're gonna hire you. You're gonna get a job. Yeah. That's not a lot of black boys. You're a big brother. But, yeah, I'm about to say, if you need me to be part of your quality, I'm about to take you to that education. I'm about to be part of it. And I'll be part of it. Don't be bad about it. Take advantage of it. Yeah. Don't be bad about it. You're gonna be part of it. You're gonna be like, I'm gonna hire you because you need me. Yeah. If you want my money to come to your school and get your education, fine. I'll take it. I'm paying no money. If you just put on black clothes. No. At all. I'm saying that. Did you do comedy music? Yeah. I mean, I was an actor. I was an actor. So, I don't, I don't, I haven't paid a dime for school. Nothing. I didn't get a refund at every semester. Yeah. Yeah. If y'all gonna pay me. That's the best thing in the world. This year was getting African American, minority here. He's not even African American because there's not even a lot of white males in the elementary setting. So, his years were getting males innocent. It was minority, but. Males are minorities. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. It's a male thing. They change it from minority to male. So, I told you that. That age. He's 8,000 dollars. That was the same customer. And a year. Exactly. Pre-housing. You don't want to just step on your brain. You should've went home with this. Is it too late? We're not home yet. What if you teach? You teach anyway. You're gonna get a job. You just, the government will pay your loans. Yeah. You don't even have to pay anything. It's up ahead. Up ahead. I think it's three. It's up to three years. I think it, I thought it depends. I'm gonna graduate with a market degree. Can I teach? There's opportunities. You have to, like, go back and get, like, the services. You know what I'm gonna do? I would, I would, I would spend your next two, doing core classes, taking your practice test. Yeah. Take your practice and nose, get that out of the way. But even when you graduate, my cousin got a, um, a criminal justice degree from Savannah State. In the summer, she got a certain pension. All you had to do was take, and they, they paid her $5,000. They gave her a housing, paid for her tests. She could take it. I mean, how many times do you want to. And through that summer, it's a five week course. They, they feed you. They feed you. They feed you. They feed you. They feed you. They feed you. They feed you. They feed you. They feed you. They feed you. They feed you. They feed you. And then, when you get there, you get to a title one school. That's another $20,000. That's a good one. That's a good one. That's a good one. That's a good one. You're on. So I paid that grower in the fall. That's a good one. I paid that grower last Thursday for grower. I wouldn't pay a student alone. I'll take this, a hundred and twenty-five, a hundred and twenty-five payments I have to make at the minimum, $25, a hundred and twenty-five payments. Okay, whatever. And the rest is for giving. You say title grower, do I not treat you like a terrible school grower? Exactly. I'll ask you, I'll ask you with Sam's kids, I don't have to do anything. The most challenging thing is to get them to, it's coming up for stuff for them, because they're smarter than me. So I gotta challenge them even more. That's the biggest challenge I have. They know way more than we ever will. Like, this generation, that came after us, this is almost potential. You just gotta get them motivated. That's their issue. They say we're the laziest, but we're the smartest. They're not motivated. As soon as we can find a way to get them motivated, they will blow everything up. The best thing we ever did, out of the water. But it was, it was ridiculous. It's about education. I love this. Is this your major now? It's not really great. Do y'all get offended when you see comedians do blackface? Like, comedians throw black makeup? What's it like? Sometimes they're about to do something stereotypical that, I feel like it's in the back of their mind that something they would think about. Is that racist? Yeah. They're just like the manifest, but they're manifest in a way that treats so not many people taking it as being racist. Like I was telling you about those behind videos and everything, and I was like, I still taking those as racist. Funny? Have I laughed at them? Yeah, that's my ignorance, but I still find them racist where they put like, we all see the behind videos where they're cutting up and calling it water alone, and it's like five black guys chasing a white girl with watermelon and bucket and KFC chicken. Alright, so was white cheap racist when the black people put it on? I think black people are belittling themselves. That was cool, man. And I mean, they didn't came up off of it. Of course. I still like... Is Dave Chappelle racist? Huh? Is Dave Chappelle racist? No, I believe he's like, he's like an awareness, like he makes people. I just feel like, because I've listened to like, interviews and I could tell, and the reason why he left the show, he said why he left the show, he didn't go crazy, he didn't get on crack, he didn't fly to Africa to run from everything. He said what they were trying to make him do, it wasn't being taken, it wasn't being taken the way that he was trying to, he was trying to make people aware of what we're doing to ourselves. He said, his jokes always come back to like, yeah, that was his point. When he said they threw $50 million at him to do another season, but they took his creative control. So now, they'll be setting up the punts. Two white guys will be setting up the punts for his jokes, and now, they're making these, they're not trying to say the same thing he's trying to say. No, I don't feel he's racist. No, it's that kind of goes back to what the man showed me the other day, I was like, Hollywood's the man. Yeah, every famous black man has had a dress on, has had to have a wig, and he had one of them. And he didn't want to do it. Oh, that's so nice. Yeah, what's the snatch that's done, you got Chris Rock, Henry Murphy, yeah, they don't think that's a, they're doing that on purpose? Yeah. What? You think it's on purpose? Putting black men in dresses. To do what? To do what? To take one of like the, that's like that. I heard that too, like is there a certain effort they're making or is it just coincidence? I don't know if it's, it couldn't just be that's what sells. Would y'all like that? No. $15 million, no dress. Yeah. No dress. No dress. Everything is for sale. Everything is for sale. Everything is for sale. Everything on the tab. You won't, look look, that's what you eat. That's what you eat. You won't, you won't. But some people and I don't know if it's just you like, like you said, if they put 50 million, 50 million, they probably will fill up all of this. So if they say this is your put a dress on for a scene. When you put a dress on, they should be able to wear it. They want them on. I'm not even talking about the money. I think what he's trying to say is like the whole sale of your big minions shit. But for me, what on the dress isn't selling my money. It didn't be something different that I'll say no. It doesn't matter what kind of money. But even in freaking Greek theater and shit, the original people who were playing women were gay. They didn't take a fist of that shit. It's all about your perception. Now if they say you're a man. No. That's what I'm saying. If you put on a dress that's stuck around a little female, I'm not doing that. That's what you're wrong with. Wait, no. Listen to me. I'm not saying you're wrong for doing it. I just know for myself. That's not what I'm saying. What about a million? I'm feeling it! I don't feel like that's how it was. I'm feeling it. I'm feeling it. I have to change a lot of lives with a million dollars. I can't turn that around to change a lot of lives. I have to change a lot of lives with a million dollars. I'm feeling it. Your family and boys are all in mine. No, I'm not saying that. I'm feeling it. Two more for every person in my cousins. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that money because I don't come from a million dollars. I'm not saying the value of a million dollars. When you put that in comparison to a billion, that's a thousand million. That's as generational money. That's never going to happen. You can't spend a million dollars. A million is gone. You can't spend a million. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. I understand that much. Let's really speak in size for all the day. You wouldn't have took a role in big models. I would have been a part of that. That's all it was to me. It was humor. They should feel I have different reasons. It's fun. If he has to figure out they're trying to mass play and he's just trying to rebel against that, then that's one thing. I can respect that. But if he's just doing it because he feels like, you know, they're trying to come for him and it's just his own insecurity, it's just like he's getting offended when somebody calls against him. Call me girl, I'll, you won't. I'm like, what is it? Right. You know what I'm saying? It's like that you won't. Because Landy was the one who did this to me. Yeah, because I am gay, because I had a gay roommate that comes in. He got all the girls. Like you. This is my roommate, like, call me what you want. Listen, yeah, like, I don't care. I don't want to mess with this, though. I had to get you, yeah. Are you all going to say anything? Let's talk about these police, though. Let's talk about these police. We all think police are racist. The thing with, um, this is a video clip, it's on YouTube. Um, the white police officer pulled a white man over. He went to his car, the guy got out the car. He told him, get that, get that. The police officer walked back to his car. The guy pulled out a rifle and started shooting at the police officer. The police officer did not draw his gun out. The guy shooting him through the window. All he's doing is, help, help, help. They pulled a gun out on us, like, hey, he, like, we on the ground, handcuffed, and the gun is to your head, like. This is, this is such a subject to me because my father was a police officer. My dad pulled in so many, many officers, white and black. And I'm not going to be foolish enough to say that, Oh, no, no, no, no. That's not all I can run. Right. Right. I'm not going to be stupid enough to say that. I wouldn't have ever said, this is a stressful job. That is one of those stressful jobs. And that's why I said, we had a conversation in one of our meetings. Like, the, when you look at the, like, the time that those police officers have been, like, in service, it's like three to five years. So they're still rookies basically. Yeah. And your, your life is on the line every day. It's either me or you. If people is done, I got my guard up. I've been talking to him. Right. Not at all. And in that same, in that same respect, you know how, how stressful and dangerous the job is. And you still go for it. Yeah. You are held to everything. Exactly. If you mess up, that's on you. No one may need to be a police officer. Right. So. I'm trying to talk to you. I feel like everybody's not qualified. Right. I mean, you have to be able to see the difference between a black kid with a hoodie who just has a hoodie on and then a black kid with a hoodie who's out here trying to cause you bodily harm and you can't just, you can, you do not have a great area. I mean, you have to be able to analyze instantly. Everybody's not fit for that. I'm not. I think it needs like, cause I don't know what the police academy does or whatever, but like you really need those psychology classes to understand the human, whatever race they are like. But then again, my life is at home alive. It's a split second between deciding if I'm going to shoot him or off into the table. What? Going back to what I said earlier about people who are present against black people being, you know, being almost exceptional. Don't you feel like today, black, I mean, black people to police officers are seen as disposable? Because every 187 who, who, who most likely is, is involved in that black man? Every, every robbery, black people. So doesn't it make sense as fucked up as it may be? Doesn't it make sense that as a police officer, especially a white police officer who's already innately scared of black people when they see a black man, they see criminal? Nope. They see disposable. One thing, um, I think that we as black should do, know your rights and know your laws. Like the police came to our house one time, um, because they said it was the law's complaint. We had some computer speakers on there. They, like my dad retired already. The police worked. So it's like, I know what I can do and what I can do. So like God, he was like, well, can you get on the house? I was like, how are you doing them? He was like, sit down right there. I was like, okay. He was just talking to us. And he just grabbed my arm and said, I'm going to take you to jail. I haven't said anything. I was just like this and I pulled away from him. And the other police officer was like, no, don't, you know what I'm saying? Don't, don't do that. Because I wasn't resisting anything. I'm sitting there on my phone just listening to him talk. But I know, I'm like, hey, I know, hey, you have a right to come here, but you can't come into my house. If you see something in there, they can come in. Like if they were seen, uh, miles through a weed, that's probably cause, but they, they didn't see anything. It was dark in there. And we had to carry them. So it's nothing you can see when I, I see it out the door. They left. That was it. I'm not going to abuse my rights as a citizen. Don't use yours as a police officer. I know you can't take it. I haven't done anything to sit around here. So don't grab me. I feel, I feel into all police. I'm pretty. I'm pretty, you know, where I can do what I can not do. I feel like if I voice that, then it's resisting arrest. I'm being a smart ass. Oh, I do. I do. I do. They do that. They try. And I'm seeing white people. I don't know. I don't know. What the fuck are you pulling me over for? They can say whatever. And they're like, ah, sir, you know, you were speeding. Boom, boom, boom. If I said that, it would be a different statement. But it's what should be said. I'm not going to rush you out. I could say it across. Like you probably said it. You probably said it like I know. That's what I know. I know you. I know you. Well, we're running off. If you want us to. I don't really know. You're not coming in. You're not coming in. We'd be looking at it differently. Even if we said it politely and whatever. It actually said the truth. Like we actually knew the law and said what they could or could not do. If it was a black person telling them what they could not do, I feel like they're going to snatch me over. But my thing is, they didn't find me innocent after all this. Right. But just like we talked about, we have a spirit that's a spirit attached towards our police officers. There was no police officer in them. He was very. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, nice white cop too. And I wasn't wrong in a lot of respects. And they, you know, I'm not classifying at all. But I'm saying, predominantly, he would have locked me up. Or at least put me in handcuffs. I would be guilty until found innocent. And if he pulled over a white guy, the same thing, everything that was going on, it would be like a different story. I just feel like he would not judge them as hard or be as harsh with them, you know. That seems to me, I understand like, that I said earlier, that's a reality that we have to go through. Yeah. It's real. Like in our case, we have to go out of our way to prove that like, I'm not going to hurt you. I'm just being a person. Yeah. Oh, that's what he did. It's funny, like you said, because my mom used to tell us towards the house, my dad used to do that while he was driving. Because my uncles had been pulled over. A cop stopped my uncle and told him, he didn't stop at the stop sign. My uncle stopped at the stop sign because he saw the cop line. Then he was like, well, you did stop, but your music was up too loud. My uncle wasn't listening to music at the time. That's why they said, but they don't keep making up. Yeah. This time you said that, because my dad has been doing that since any of my sisters and little, like anytime we will all be in a car together and he will see a cop, he will automatically go down his window and put his hand out the window and speak to the cop, like wave at the cop. So the cop will know he's a family man who's in the car with his two kids and his wife. So the cop wouldn't think that. Yeah, you have to go out of your way. He really had to go out of his way to make sure the cop didn't think anything of him, especially because the type of car we had at the time and then we might have had tentative windows. But a lot of times, like when African-Americans are put over there, aggressive, like, right in front of you. That's their job to serve and protect. Like if you run the red, like, that's a good one. Like you can break rules, fine. Yeah, break the rules. You can't break those laws. That's their job. So if you go one now over this feeling and the speed limit is 40 and it's different from Atlanta. Atlanta, you can go like 5 and 10 over. Here, it's a no whatever. So you can't go 41 technically, but you're not going to stop at 41. Like if you go 49 and 40, they don't pull you over here. You're going to get some corn salt. Atlanta, they not going to look really tough. They got bigger fish to fry. They got bigger fish to fry. You got to look at where you had to because at least in a small town, this is how they make the money. Exactly. Yeah. Big west is Atlanta. They got drug posters to worry about. They got all types of stuff to worry about. They got all types of stuff to worry about. They got all types of stuff to worry about. More or not. Every time I ran till top, it was, I felt like I was racially... Yeah, racially, racially told problem. One time I was in jail. The dude said, let me see your license. I said, I don't have a license, man. And he took me into jail because I don't have smart ass. Went to jail for that. Then, when we went to... Oh, and then, the dude, they had me living with a meth head. And so, this dude, we literally do drugs all day, not go to class, blah, blah, blah. So this dude decided to come in and it was like three o'clock at night. He decided to cook noodles. Mine's the water. So he put noodles on the stove and I'm going to sleep. So my sweet mate came in and woke us up. We just seen black smoke ball in our house. Me, my sweet mate, and my roommate is black. Well, Clayton. Clayton was my roommate. So I left the cops in the way once. We went downstairs and when the cops came, we were just waiting on the cops. And the dude who was burning the noodles, he was trying to run away. I was like, you don't see that? And so they weren't saying nothing to him. So they asked me and Clayton, they were like, we're going to ask you one time. And we were just going to tell you the truth. How long have you been smoking marijuana? I was like, bro, I never smoked a day in my life. And then he was like, he was like, all right, well, we go ask you one more time. And he just kept asking me until I said yes. I was like, I don't smoke marijuana. He was like, okay. So he went and got the breathalyzer test. Only testing me. I just woke up out of sleep. He didn't do nothing to the dude who he didn't know he was going to sleep. He looked like he was high? Yeah. Oh, then he said, I looked like I was high. Like he did this wake up at three o'clock in the morning. My eyes are red. Then he was like, it's a thing called sticking on your eyes. So I know you've been smoking weed. I know my parents and blah, blah, blah. The next day I was like, I'm not the only one who got breathalyzed. Nobody else did. And so he was like, we'll go talk to the cops if you need to. So I went and the other cop was protecting the other cop. I was like, can I go speak in such and such? He was like, no, whatever you got to say to him, you can say to me. So long story short, I was like, well, long as none of this stuff is on my record, I'm cool. He was like, well, we did write you down. He said, you didn't have some type of intake alcohol which is why the house almost went down. I was like, this nigga went upstairs. It's all, my bad, we talking about this every day. This dude went upstairs and checked and seen his little pot like coming from steam and they came in there, though I can't think. They thought I did basically. So I was like, how, how does that happen? Like, how can I not feel like I was richly profiled if I'm the only one who took a breathalyzer and I was the only one who looked high. Blah, blah, blah. But it was two of black people. One was in a car. So they didn't, they didn't think I knew he was with us because after he got out, he wanted to get caught. So were you the only black person in there? Yeah, it was me, Clayton, and then the white people. I'll tell you, they're not scared of white people. They just, I'm not scared of white people. I'm not scared of white people. They just, I'm not scared of white people. Are you, are you, are you mixed? So, okay. What's your take on this? Yeah, because y'all haven't said anything. Yeah, like family, brothers, anything. Like, do they experience or do they, do they feel what we're coming from? What we're coming from, though, is that racism? Are they insensitive, you know? Yeah, one in my family. They, I mean, my dad has been more exposed to racism than my mom. My mom's more like, I don't want to say oblivious to racism, but she doesn't, she doesn't see it as easily as me and my sister and my dad do. Um, the experiences in the past, but I mean, Like, I'm curious from like a girl to a zoom. I mean, I've had nicest roommates in my freshman year. What did they say? They would throw, like, racial slurs, like, I should, I mean, like, I should probably go to the top of the, we'll find a date or something. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, No, no, no, she said poor, I'm talking about poor, poor, poor, poor. I think black people are creating their own racism too. They ain't taking stuff too far. Yeah, take it too seriously. Yeah, like, they're taking a lot of stuff too far, right? I mean, I understand we're supposed to be proud of our race, but it's like, now that we have, like, social media and stuff, like, people try to throw me in black in other people's face, and it's not that serious. Like, this is the difference between pride and being too boastful. So, I mean, I understand, I mean, I like being black. I don't know what any other experience would be like, but it's like, people would be making a little hashtag, like, Melanin Monday, like, nobody care how black you are. I don't care. Yeah. Melanin Monday. Yeah. Like, they have their own little week for Melanin, the wood color of your skin. Melanin. Yeah, Melanin. People, like, the term Melanin is, like, now. Yeah, now, yeah. So, you know. And what is that? I don't know. Melanin is somebody that makes that color. So, it's definitely your skin. It's really your skin. So, I would admit that everybody had a Melanin, every black person had a Melanin, which makes you darker, like, good. So, basically, like, certain white people can't celebrate. And after a minute, okay. Yeah, so they know what they were talking about. They showed black girls rockin', it was like, what if they had white girls rock out beat? Somebody said that if they had white girls rock, y'all would be upset. And everybody was like, oh, you're a scum for saying that. I don't want to ruin that because I saw that there was, it was like the first lady basically said that white girls don't rock they're not they're not worth it because she went to Black Girls Rock. My take on Black Girls Rock is because the meat because how we're portrayed in media so it's telling little girls coming up a lot of whom have no self-esteem because they don't feel pretty enough they don't feel good enough because they say because how media portrays what beauty is they're not what people say beauty is but that's that's upgrading and holding yeah but black but to say Black Girls Rock is racist I don't think I don't agree with it why not why not say girls rock and then have black women there just so that black women are just a little bit like BT but I feel like saying Black Girls Rock is just a step down right you specifically it's not hard to be a black girl than it is to just be a girl I've had two things to get me I'm black and I'm a female you have things against you being black that's the only thing a male a black male has to get some it's going to be black me I have to go through being a female and and being black so to say Black Girls Rock it's nothing it's lifting me up it's not to put anybody else down but it's to live my conscience it's important for the opposition to realize just because we're building something up don't you return something out of the process that's what I'm trying to say we need them to see black women as women not black but say something is black or or or it's it's it's it's a black talk show or it's a black movie it's just that step down as far as society's concerned so saying women rock is saying that you know you're not just a black girl you're a woman that goes in that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's on bc it goes on anything else it might be called that but it's bc bt whole thing is uh well that goes like in that same argument when people say black lives matter and you have someone pop to say all lives matter yes all lives matter but at the moment we're discussing black lives yeah you know what I'm saying you know what I'm talking about also we're just saying can y'all please realize and can we realize that our lives matter that's like going to a cancer run and someone yelling yo gotta do these matters too yeah would you be offended at a at a um w in store for the white college just out that's what they are white college this is what this is that's what this is are predominantly of historically white college right in the senate um black yeah well i'm saying in the sense where they're out with it like this is for white people i'm saying this is so bcu are only for black people no he's saying would we be offended if they called it uh pretty much a predominantly white college but it is but we don't call it what's your name what's your name people said no yeah historically that's but this is historically white we didn't come in in the 70s but you don't call it historically white college we have to do it because this we have to do we have to let them know it's a bcu because our family just says because it was this is where it came from we didn't have the opportunity to go to these big groups so we made our own yeah so that's our history that is our history i heard that so that's how they should try to be in our history so you're saying what do they call this a historically white no it is but it's just a worry it's a worry no i swear i'm worried but that's what it is like i'm well aware this is a historically white college we didn't show up to the 70s here and that's okay and i want to say even women are around here yeah exactly you know that's what it is like we all know and i'm not offended about it that's just what it is white entertainment network that don't need a sound right what that's not let me tell you is bring everyone together now so the one thing about it is the reason vt is okay is because let me go back to what i'm saying we didn't have this yeah we like we have it now like this but this is a for us by us type of thing but they say you better bring everybody here all right y'all they'll be here at all right black to bring everybody together because they be like yeah that's why that's what i'm saying you know vt they still let other races like right being like jen it was jen was a rat battler who won yeah when they did the top rappers you know who's number one they don't hate all white people is this they celebrate their yeah yeah do you feel that your view is different because you didn't directly come from the same line we did yes i mean that's just everybody's upbringing but it doesn't make our the exception like like we this is all the topic but like with the age of me or something like let me be this child like i was really i got beating when i was little yeah i was like i don't want my kids like my son's being mean to his sister i just told him go in there and lay down and think about it come back and talk to me and apologize to her and that's what he did he was fine he doesn't be me anymore like i don't i don't but that that didn't do anything that didn't do anything to me like i did it again yeah and i just doing it like but when i'm gonna start taking like she's like you can't go to that basketball game she took my game away she took my posters away that didn't work because when he saw her player with the ipad he couldn't for the rest of the day man boy he said nothing but like i said every kid is different too so it may work for some because the thing what he said is he took it to another level yeah everybody's been beat before but he took it to a whole other level nothing was okay you got what was yeah you got marks yeah because he's african and he's i'm saying that's that was my point of asking because even to him we're not the same and uzi would say the same thing too he's not raised like us right and me actually i'm vagin none of my none of my heritage has came from uncle barbados none of them have came through a slain trade or anything like that they came straight from africa so they're not in the same category as an average black person but i still allow myself to see the race because the white person doesn't care if you're african or african-american they're gonna see a black person but that's the thing and i acknowledge okay but the thing about it that that i guess gives me a different perspective it gives me a different perspective is the fact that you know we talk about racism we talk about what we are like if i say you know how we want but that's what he said middle school like you don't think like middle school don't don't think right now i understand that but but most of the the people we see they're still scarred over shit that happened in middle school and that's something that they have to do that's something they have to do but most of society is like that a lot of people we see walking around here dead inside because some shit that happened in middle school high school based on being black being cracked on about your head being cracked on about your skin bleaching your skin different shit like that but but who does that to you black people yeah but we want to because like the way i think about it i was like if i was white and i see these police shootings and shit like that i wouldn't care the reason i was you because when it doesn't directly affect you people don't really care that honestly that but the way i think about it would be they killed themselves more than cops do yes they hurt themselves more than cops do and i have to give a fuck but but look but if i kill you i'm not i don't swear an oath to protect and to serve and protect you so when that police officer has the two seconds to kill you like when i put over i'm like oh shit um maybe you know what i'm saying let me tell the officer that i have a concealed weapons license let me tell them that the gun is in there like you have to tell them that even when i took that class the police officer like it don't matter if you're black or white if you don't tell them that they like and you reaching their oh the gun dropped out their instinct he has a gun that he's reaching for he didn't tell me he's not thinking well maybe he forgot about it you know and see i agree with that completely but the the angle i'm coming from is the resources the time the energy we use to protest in march and fucking cuss people out on social media about this kind of shit if we use that to actually change the psyche of black people educate our kids better but what would we be in the future do you not think that that people are trying to do that they are trying to do that the way is a bulk of our energy going protest now to me for what um the last one i went to was um the uh the march on the capital about the rebel flag right there you know which i feel sometimes they stand up on the on the state building they stand up for rebel flag you're still on state house brown yeah it's still on the browns but they took me from off the top of building so what about them saying that the kids can't wear american flag in the school you saw that too what about that i thought that yes would you say hey we can wear american flag yeah i got a problem with that they can't wear it because they wore it on a single day night so they said that because the kids wore american um wore a pair with american flag on it it was on called racial tensions so they banded they banded up here a pair with america right um they couldn't know what i'm saying um wardrobe the kid on on on the day the kids wore um the american flag and they sent them home they just fed it off the country out there they got the big trucks with the big flag and the girl in my and my class she was like they sent them home because of they were the rebel flag no they were the american flag that's what i was talking about yeah like you mean like i'm all for thomas but you being this is america but that's the thing who draws that line because what if it's you because that's coming since man it might tell me if if i'm in america and i want to represent america and i'm not allowed to do that in a like yeah and i can't i can't be proud of being an army when i enlisted in army to fight for america you tell me i can't be proud of that but also they don't have to let me say it but that intent they like the the original kids that wore the flag on single the mind they minded did that with the intent of like oh this is tomorrow i'm still gonna wrap my stuff yeah to to true i don't know the issue i hear that you know that mess up for everybody else those children were young i feel like they didn't have no way to get that mess up at all i mean you know i didn't go out in school but you can't you can't you can't you can't you never know school school school you can't you never know because a white person can wear a wrapper flag and it could mean two different things it could either mean they hate neighbors or some pride but it's up to you to say is this offended but either way school should be about school should be about your wardrobe blah blah the mess that i never had to wear uniform while i was in school and in 12th grade yeah it was like you know keeping it picked on so everybody i wear uniform but i can say i'm a warrior uniform like people say like it's not what you wear but when you when you put on like like when i dress up like i put dress clothes on people who wear like dress clothes like i like i feel different than when i got this on like you're pretty soon yeah hey so when i wore uniforms i was like i mean i know i'm smart i don't know when i wore that shit i was like hey i'm smart but that might just be you either way even though you got to wear standard color and collar shirt everybody's not gonna have the same exact brand and everybody's been in school before it's always a way to pick on somebody if you don't pick on somebody even if it comes down there it's huge but with the with the uniform thing in Atlanta i know the thing they did that because there's like like a lot of games so it's like you're wearing a white in the cap like that's it you took your shirt in we know you don't have any guns under because like literally at our high school like three four shootings or semesters so it's not it's bigger than me i'm gonna i'm gonna have to agree with that but like i said perception and whatever i have to agree with that because i've seen a person get shot for having a raiders hat on which represents folk nation and he was he was from like like ohio or something but he was in boston and that was a blood neighborhood and he had a open raider hat on and according to them his attention was for your protection we're not allowed to wear those things right outside wear flags you can't fly them any type of situation but obviously to him they never did it to another student that's why you gotta know you wet because like how i when i talk i say cuz i'm not gonna get away saying that nine times i might say cuz at the end of the sentence like in confident i'm not gonna get away saying simple word is like put yourself in situations where you know it's not gonna but some people don't know i didn't know i'm just wearing a hat because it matches my shoes yeah like you can say do since it's like a game like you jay you might surprise me doing my game you know bad fact like it's time when you take a three on court and do this that might mean something like i have like family in games and they explain like if people do this like they don't take offense if i you know what i'm saying wear a certain color because they know i'm not in the game but others if you if they see you doing this like and got like any guys rather like they'll be saying like like yeah don't do that but like you don't do that like my brother right in the car my son is in the back he's looking over like the guys are doing a they were doing a handshake i pity my son they're doing a handshake he rolls down my window rolls my window down and ask them like what's that y'all playing like i'm like uh-huh like it's way deeper than like that's how you hold them and then you got a heart man i was saying that about um i don't even but they were like it's a bad little detergent don't come on no nobody has to teach that ring that ain't your turn but when you look at the deeper thing they say like
