Starting point is 00:00:00 All right, we are back. Here. Alive. Yes. Black. Very black. Quite black. Actually, I'm more black than gay right now.
Starting point is 00:00:13 Oh. Yeah. Okay. I don't even think I'm going to talk about being gay. Wow. At all, this whole episode. And yet, 15 seconds in, you've said the word gay twice. But I also said black twice, so it's two for two.
Starting point is 00:00:26 Blick. How are you doing, my black friend? I mean, we literally talk every day. We've been talking every day. Every day. And all of the feels. I mean, we really have been going through it. Just when we thought things were bad, they're like, let's throw some worse on it.
Starting point is 00:00:43 They're like, oh, you haven't even seen what we got left in this bag. Yeah. And it's almost like, you know, 2020 was a car on fire and they just put a boot on it now. It's a boot. It's like, what was this for? What is the boot for? Yeah. We were always like, throw the year away.
Starting point is 00:01:04 But now they're like, oh, put some on. It's like a car that broke down. And then you're waiting for AAA and then you get robbed. Yes. And then after you get robbed, somebody gives you a flat tire. Yes. And then the car catches fire. And then a cop drives by and is like, let me put a little boot on this thing.
Starting point is 00:01:23 That's what 2020 feels like. Put a boot on it and then shoot you. And then shoot you. Yes. so that's that's like cleo and set it off that's what's going on right now and uh it's i've already was feeling like down but this just is another level of distress that i'm just trying to manage yeah because it's like how long are we gonna talk we talk every day at all we've been talking to friends back to back to back just trying to process and get through everything
Starting point is 00:01:55 it's no more talking right because it's the conversations are all the same now how you doing and I'm doing this thing where I don't say I'm just I don't say just anymore yes I am it's not I'm just so angry I'm
Starting point is 00:02:11 angry very I'm just I'm so tired I'm tired furious and also like I'm not I'm not thanking white people for checking on me no like this as a human being this is something that you should be doing without anybody telling you to do it like people are hurting you should reach out to somebody that you know you should reach out to you to your black friend you
Starting point is 00:02:33 should google uh black books or stuff about race that you can do to educate yourself but then at the at the same time you need to look within yourself that's like if it took me this long to realize that i need to go fucking look for a book educate myself reach out to my friends don't look like at me you are also the problem no the real true peak problem is the people who are not racist or say that they're not racist and they have black friends and they live in blue states and they moved from their red state but their parents are problematic and their aunts are problematic and their nana problematic in her uh sneakers from coals like these are people the people who don't talk speak up when those people are saying mess y'all are the problem
Starting point is 00:03:17 i mean it's a whole bunch of people who are like not me right now everybody's saying not me i'm not hearing anybody saying me yeah but it's that's not the the stats are telling me that it is all of y'all yeah it's a lot of we got the statistics and it's and it's like we already have to do so much work on ourselves from jump and now so now there's another layer of work that we have to do for y'all in the middle of a pandemic bitch what says we we trying to wrap this pandemic up with a nice little bow and kick the pandemic down we're done i could see the light at the end of the pandemic and y'all are doing this now yeah oh man and the fact that you guys are not even upset like just a little bit you're focused on a fucking looting on if that's what
Starting point is 00:04:08 you're worried about bitch you you are absolutely where you live put your address down so the looters can come through let me tell you something if i had known we was gonna be in soho i would have pulled up cash hey sid you wanna you wanna go to soho tonight just you know just take a walk on a cobblestone street and i if i was near a window and it was open and it was something close by i'm in there you know this country is so full of shit and everybody who wants to be so self-righteous about it and that's what makes african americans upset it's like you can't tell us what's right when y'all been doing wrong from jump yeah and isn't it wild that they call us african americans but they don't call white people european americans or english americans
Starting point is 00:05:00 or i don't know russian americans y'all are also not from here yeah most of this yeah y'all are y'all are some ellis island americans realistically i mean when it's time to do history that's when they start talking about that but for the most part they'd be like well my 23 and me says i'm from 71 different places but i am american so and it's and it's just uh you know we wouldn't want to work on mental health right now because it's like we have to stay sane like while we're getting up and trying to be activists and get the word out and donate and send links and reach out to other people it's like but okay but who's replenishing us right and it weighs it weighs on you like when i tell you the last couple days i wake up and there's like a split second that i'm
Starting point is 00:05:51 awake where it's like and then no and then immediately i remember and i'm just angry i'm so mad and i'm tired while i've just woke up i got my seven hours i'm still in my bed and i'm fatigued like my body is tired yeah and all of that all of that is happening plus i'm getting emails from people about auditions and self-tapes and it's like no no i'm not i'm not i missed Somebody messaged me to do a voiceover for, I don't know what it was, like H&R Block or something, or something like that. And she was like, can you get this to me by 1130? And I said, hey, Tracy, I'm going to try, but I'm not really in the mindset to do any work right now for anything work related. And she sent me a message today, three days later, to be like, hey, I know you weren't ready the other day, and I'm not trying to rush you or anything, but I just want to see if you're doing any better.
Starting point is 00:06:49 And it's like, sis, you still trying to make money off my black ass? Yes. You still trying to send me stuff that I book that you can claim 10% of? Yeah. Sis, today is, what's today? Tuesday? What is today? Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:07:03 Wednesday? Yeah. Like, I'm going to get to it when I get to it. But also, like, rushing how I feel and trying to, like, scurry along for a white woman is not what I'm doing this week. That's not our brand. That's not my ministry. We can't. That's just really not on the agenda.
Starting point is 00:07:23 Hurry up and buy? No. I'm not. No. And that's what people don't understand. At the end of the day, I mean, we are all of entertainment. We are providing a service that you just really can't get. And then when it's time to support us for stuff like this, it's like, well, I can't really get involved.
Starting point is 00:07:46 My hands are tied. oh is your hands are tied well we're getting shot in the back so i think you need to get your hands untied and get involved at least reaching your wallet and donate to the people so we can bail protesters out so we can get covid relief for protesters so we can you know afford proper autopsies to be done you saw the absolute fucking nerve that they had to tell us that oh no george floyd died because um of health health issues hypertension they said uh they also said it was some fentanyl in there really so y'all just gonna throw the whole bag in everything we we sprinkled that on top oh he was also on drugs he was unfit he was unhealthy and he was on drugs but he did
Starting point is 00:08:33 not choke to death no but that's why rich people that's why it's good to have money that's rich people win cases you know because they can afford to pay an actual specialist they can afford their own autopsies they can afford to hire their own private investigators because cops ain't gonna do shit not if it makes them look bad no and the fact that they already look bad they look terrible and they still people are still like oh we have to protect these people why but that's the craziest part to me is like you know that murder is wrong murder you know that murder is wrong you know that because it's not justified because you're upset about looting but you know murder is wrong and you make every excuse in the world to not arrest these three other cops that just happen
Starting point is 00:09:23 to be there all you have to do is throw the book at these niggas it's really not that hard no you throw the book at people for less for less for marijuana let's talk about it let's talk about it but you're telling me it's on tape we see it they aren't they're on his back literally on his back for nine minutes he died and they were still on his neck yeah for three more minutes it's like really how does that not make you upset how does that not make you be like yes something has got to change and it's like oh you know protesting and looting is not gonna
Starting point is 00:10:00 bring back George Floyd we're not just here for that friend no we're here for all the other non-convictions that have happened are you 400 years late bitch do you know what we've been dealing with here did you just wake up sis um yeah
Starting point is 00:10:16 it's it's three more cops just you don't even care about these If you're going to throw somebody under the bus, I feel like you might as well throw the people under the bus that are bad. Yeah. But also, I didn't watch the tape.
Starting point is 00:10:33 I didn't watch the video because I don't need that in my psyche. But I saw, you know, I've seen the images or whatever. And for him to be that calm with his hand in his pockets, that's not the first time he killed somebody. He's a sick fuck. He's a psycho. His hands were in his pocket. like think about the amount of times in the day when you're casually strolling and you don't think
Starting point is 00:10:57 to put your hands in your pocket this dude was like literally murdering somebody and he was like whistling in his head mental illness that's all i could say mental illness and then for for us is that we keep seeing these visuals like back to back to back brianna taylor i mean it's it's disgusting and so we've been watching this for years and years and years and years and you know it's like what can we do how are we going to stop this the the infrastructure is fucked from within yep like even if we protest even if we try to get these things in place this system is has always not been for us we would have to throw everyone away every we have to start from scratch burn all the police stations down and salt the earth and then hire all brand new cops but brand new cops
Starting point is 00:11:47 brand new sergeants brand new uh lieutenants the police unions gotta go like because they're the ones who advocate for these cops i was reading about this yesterday after i got off the phone with you and i was like the fuck like the same way there are teachers unions or whatever like everyone has a union you join that and that person the union fights for your wage they fight for your vacation days they fight for if this person gets in trouble this is gonna be the consequence and police unions are like oh uh if they hurt somebody or they get a write-up that'll only be on the record for six months so what so if i scroll back i'm not gonna see all the stuff that they've actually done or they advocate for them not to get fired oh if they do something stupid
Starting point is 00:12:28 if they kill somebody they can't get fired they gotta get a disc job what no i think you need to in jail right like any literally any other job that exists in the world if you're bad at your job you get fired but not if you're a cop if you're a cop they just like yeah you know what happened i need to see the incident report and now you can take this gun and go outside again you should not be allowed to do anything jack shit yeah and and the crazy thing yesterday they went on a facebook live the nypd they had to listen to like citizens of la just oh so the lapd yeah they had to go like they were michael moore they were they people wrote up stuff in advance and they were letting these niggas have it and it was like do your job what is it to do
Starting point is 00:13:22 your job right do you like your job if you don't like their job if you don't like your job that restaurant is hiring you can get another job like what is the deal and i mean they were so at they're getting all this information from all these citizens who were very well spoken everything was well written and they were upset some of them were saying suck my dick it was my dick it was beautiful i yield my time suck suck suck my dick from the back or something i don't remember oh and choke on it suck my dick and choke on it it was eloquent and it's like this is the stuff that you weird they got to hear that but they know all this stuff none of this stuff is new it's it's not it's not new they know how bad they are they know how bad they are but also they don't but they don't
Starting point is 00:14:06 care and they don't care because they have not been getting in trouble for this behavior for decades yeah like this is not new cops been trash the police force has been garbage everywhere well i knew it wasn't trash when you know the domestic violence that happens between cops and their wives when you watch Lifetime Channel, they stay showing you that a cop is beating their wife's ass and then the whole precinct is like, no, but Jake is good. Yeah, they're like, Detective Jake?
Starting point is 00:14:38 They have cops come to the house to check on it and they're like, yeah, she's still alive, so I think everything's fine, you know? They're like, all right, well, we still playing golf tomorrow? Yeah. All right, don't make me come back out here again. Like, if they're showing that on Lifetime Channel, that's what they're doing in their house when they go out oh they they're letting people have it
Starting point is 00:15:01 they're killing people yeah and i don't know if there are any police officers listening to this right now i highly doubt it but if there are or you're married to a cop or whatever maybe you are married to a good one but a good cop is somebody who who's not afraid to speak up at their job for the most part what everything that i've been bombarded with information wise is cops don't rat on other cops or if you tell on these are the movies that we see if you are undercover investigating the dirty cops in your precinct you're the bad guy they they mad at you and it's like you stealing and robbing people and raping people and killing and killing people and planting evidence you know you are a regular training day
Starting point is 00:15:45 you you didn't tell but you know why those movies do so well because it's true yeah i mean there's truth in all of that people can relate to it but also but also every job there's people who hate their job people hate their jobs in all industries right so you won't tell me that there are no cops that don't hate their jobs yeah yeah they're so annoying it's just like i really just don't know where or when this will get better and right now it's all about cleaning house within your own communities too it's like if you ever looked at me crazy if i feel like i've been in pictures and it's just been me you ain't got no other black people in your lives i gotta cut you off it's just it's enough enough is enough you're not the spokesperson for black people no
Starting point is 00:16:41 more no ma'am well i stopped that years ago but it's definitely this is the time where it's like i'm not doing this with you yeah but also like we you want to be with people from within your own community you want to be with people who sympathize with you and the only people and even then not all black people sympathize with black people the self-hate is real what happened with Off-White with that $50 donation that he bragged about. It was like, why did you post this? Who was that for?
Starting point is 00:17:14 But also, it's like, okay, I don't know what else is going on. Like, he said that he donated $20,000 but it just wasn't posted. So why would you post the $50,000? Did you
Starting point is 00:17:30 donate the $20,000 before or after the $50,000? Because like, I saw his uh his whack-ass apology or his statement he was like i've donated all the time you know i i didn't think that this was something that i needed to like boast about or whatever and he was like i'm gonna continue to do what i can for my community you know when people get caught they say stupid stuff like emma watson or whatever got caught she posted like the three squares on her page the black squares for blackout tuesday and people were like you haven't even said anything
Starting point is 00:18:03 also you care more about what your page looks like that she she posted three boxes so the whole thing still looked like uniform yeah and she released a statement on her instagram like a couple hours later and she was like well i was waiting for blackout tuesday to be over in the uk before i released my official statement but you didn't say anything beforehand no exactly and it's like says but did you did you wait were you waiting for it to be wednesday no well i just think at this point the people who the beige the alabasters who are like you're damned if you do you're damned if you don't like what can i do that's right and it's like i don't know that same energy you do to like try to figure out these dance moves on tiktok put that towards
Starting point is 00:18:49 figuring it out how to make this better yeah if you could be a class uh if you could be a savage classy bougie ratchet then you can figure out how to do something or say something and it's not damned if you do damned if you don't so i'm not gonna you need to do something you need to have a conversation with somebody or you need to post something somewhere or you need to check the people in your life that are trash that's it we're not saying that you gotta post something on your page you don't have to post receipts of stuff but you should be doing something in your real life or your social media life if that's something that you feel like you need to prove that you did yeah I'm trying to draft up something to put on my actual page because it's like I'm not I'm not
Starting point is 00:19:27 speechless it's not like I don't have anything to say it's just like I'm trying to process my own shit yeah and I can't be on all these platforms talking like I'm on Twitter and I'm like this is what I can focus on because it's just words and I'm I don't have to worry about a picture and like video video you know I'm on Twitter I'm reposting I'm donating I'm trying to get little jokes here and there just to make myself laugh if possible but i can't be on all these platforms i mean it's just too much i'm overwhelmed yeah but i do want to say something and just like you know you guys come to us for comedy and i can't do that because i can't do my fucking job because the world is fucked on fire literally it's on fire and i am glad to see it
Starting point is 00:20:14 burn i feel good about that um i feel good about the looting i feel like all of that is it's great because the little bit of pain that you feel watching people uh get robbed or watching people steep whatever it's it pales in comparison to what's happening in real life like to everybody else when i saw those people trying to defend target i said oh yeah you gotta we gotta get shut it down we have you are so far gone that no amount of medication is going to help you also target is a multi-million dollar corporation they're fine all of these businesses that are getting looted have insurance fine they have insurance we mad that chanel got robbed no we mad that rolex is getting robbed no who cares literally who cares they're fine they're robbing
Starting point is 00:21:02 us mark jacobs made a statement on his page and he was like he was like yeah i stand with y'all um he was like you know property damage is it's just property it's not people whatever whatever and somebody was like what um what would you say if your your store got um robbed or looted and he was like my store did get looted my stores have been looted and he was like it's still not as important as human life and people are like uh oh you're not you're not mad that your stuff got stolen it's just stuff dude it's always gonna be stuff and things please stop stop making a big deal like do better people are are so angry and they're just like where are the solutions and even when we do have the solutions we still are overlooked i mean as many people we post in martin
Starting point is 00:21:56 luther king quotes it's like you've got to be fucking kidding let's talk about that they assassinated that man he peaceful protesting king of it king of the piece assassinated so king of like they was getting dressed up in suits and linking arms and singing we shall overcome and y'all were furious about that yeah and i've been learning so much more about martin luther king in the last three days then i learned about him in school he was arrested like over 29 times and when they i guess some they did a poll in the united states and he was the most hated man in america when he was alive martin luther king who y'all are telling us we should be more like who y'all killed was the most hated man in america when he was alive because he was bringing us
Starting point is 00:22:41 together he was educating us making us organized to fight back for the rights that we fucking deserve and they couldn't stand it they were like how dare this well-dressed like they were terrorizing his family they were putting all his business on front street about you know you know the affair and stuff you know you're working that hard out in the streets you can't just keep his dick in his pants what you want sometimes you can't run all the way home to coretta sometimes you gotta run to your side piece house because she lived you know far away from the she on the way she's yeah she's you can't be on the street it's curfew you can't be out here you gotta stop at your side hoe house um sister levita jenkins levita alize jenkins anyway whatever so
Starting point is 00:23:27 uh it's interesting to me for people to keep bringing up martin luther king and they don't bring up all his quotes they only bring up the ones that for them it's like oh he says non-violent and he said this it's like yeah but he also said other stuff that y'all not quoting so let's talk about it i mean if we just want to get down to brass tacks um malcolm's right i am 35 years old and the actual information that i had to take in about being a black person in america is traumatizing i remember being in school learning about black history month and being embarrassed yes i remember that being embarrassed like seeing people being lynched burned on fire and you're ashamed total total towns just done you know i saw that movie rosewood
Starting point is 00:24:15 and i was i was like oh i can't fuck with white people for a minute oh i didn't see rosewood oh rosewood is about a woman who her a white woman her husband or her side piece raped and beat her and then she came out and said that a black man did it and they were on this wild goose chase to find this black, big black man that raped and beat her and they burned all of Rosewood down. This is fictional, but it's not. It's not.
Starting point is 00:24:47 We know that's what white women used to do back in the day. We know what happened with Emmett too. We know that they would not let us walk on the same side of the street as them. If a black person was on the sidewalk and a white person was coming, we had to get off the sidewalk which is why to this day I do not
Starting point is 00:25:03 do that. If I'm coming up the block and white women, I know that y'all are listening but y'all are peak take over the whole sidewalk if it's four of y'all having a conversation they will walk abreast of each other so they can all be like in each other's line of sight and if my black ass is coming up the other way they 95 of the time will not move out of the way for me and they expect me to i don't know step off this off the curb for them i'll stop walking i will i will plant my feet and stop walking and they can go around me like water going around a rock because that that that is why i don't do it because like y'all don't own the
Starting point is 00:25:40 sidewalk it's not for you now let's stop for a second if you are a uh beige woman or a man listening right now right you might have said wow this is a lot of stuff they're really letting us have it we're gonna keep going and also if you're one of those people that's listening you're like well not all of us it's like stop it's not all of you but it's a hell of a lot of you it's a it's a lot it's so much that i bet you if you ask any your black friend ask your black friend after you listen to this episode if they've experienced white women walking on the sidewalk and they will tell you that they've all experienced exactly what i'm talking about or just watch the movie rosewood look it up that movie sounds wild it's it oh my god i don't want to see that i well
Starting point is 00:26:23 i understand that it's like something that happened and it's like something you know it's educational in that like it's our history but like i can't watch movies or videos or body cam footage like that anymore it just it's it's my my spirit can't take that like they play george floyd's videos and the black people getting killed videos on a loop all over its social media i can't watch it yeah they play it on the news i can't watch it 12 years a slave never seen it never gonna see it I can't watch stuff like that. Like, I'm tired of seeing black people, like, bloodied and in chains and biting the curve. Like, American History X is not, that's not my film.
Starting point is 00:27:07 I'm not doing this with you guys no more. I don't want to have that in my brain playing on a loop when I'm sitting in front of a white person. Or when I'm walking out of my house. Someone wrote on Twitter, the help is trending on Netflix. I have to laugh. it's like we not watching that shit it's not us viola's not watching it octavia not watching it none of us are watching that they're not we are not watching that shit that's for y'all we've already dragged it to the to the point of no more dragging yeah you have to listen to um viola davis's
Starting point is 00:27:42 um um interview about that that movie yeah there was like some podcasts yeah she talked about like the whole process of doing it and how she felt and how they treated her and what the book is actually about and what it's based on. And it's like, this is all, this is more Karen bullshit from the writer to the actual story. And you know, Viola is still fucked up about that.
Starting point is 00:28:08 Oh yeah. She's not watching that damn movie. She has PTSD from the help. But most black people have PTSD from being black. Like that's a real ass thing that like we need therapy for. and i was reading something like this time last year about how um trauma can be passed down in your dna it's generational it's yeah so like the same way that like your eye color and like bald the baldness gene or whatever like if there's trauma which we have because 250 years of slavery
Starting point is 00:28:41 all of that stuff like goes it gets passed on to generation like generation after generation after generation and we walk in different we we feel it different it's affecting all of us right now differently because this ptsd is like real and white folks y'all benefit from all of the ancestors that you said were not slave owners or were not racist or were not problematic like you benefit from all of the stuff that they passed on to you the summer house the the inheritance like the ability to just be the ability not even have to think about what the fuck is going on right now yeah to wake up and be like well i think i can go on and just uh do this tiktok and then post it oh the nerve to put and it's and it'd be off beat but and and then you know
Starting point is 00:29:34 for me i was i was um i was thinking the other day it's like we'd be so mad at you know the woman that works at CVS who got an attitude or the lady who works at the DMV who's got an attitude or the woman that's the black woman that's in the street that's not smiling that's got an attitude there's a fucking reason why we got an attitude yeah why we upset yeah what's wrong what's wrong oh do you have 12 years I can tell you what's wrong do you have 12 years 12 years do you have it because there's so many things that we have to unpack yeah and a lot of black people do not go to therapy no so we we have our parents trauma we got our grandparents trauma because they didn't go to therapy neither and we just like carrying this and then i gotta smile and i gotta be present on
Starting point is 00:30:21 this call and i gotta i gotta not have an attitude with somebody who's literally never had a care in the world i have to be nice to somebody who parents probably pay their rent and they gentrified my neighborhood and now i can't pay my rent like it's so many layers to this that y'all are not seeing and it's like wow okay stop you might be listening to this and you're like fuck they still going ham you're gonna keep going but also if you feel but wait there's more there's more if you are one of those people that have reached out to us to say i'm sorry i know what's going on your white guilt it's got to stop it's got to end you got to look inward and it's not for me to say it's okay like i know you're not one of them it's not for me to say that because you have to do that
Starting point is 00:31:15 honestly and truly i don't know if you're not one of them i truly don't know and i honestly i'm looking back at stuff in situations where it's like yo i'm the only black person at your wedding the only black person here out of a hundred motherfuckers are you are you kidding me you don't have nobody gay and you don't have nobody black just me you got the you got your old nanny who's filipino and that's it like how do i know that you think you're not one of those i don't know what you're saying when i don't know what y'all are saying when i'm not here you're one black friend also i don't know what you let your boyfriend say or what you let your your aunt say or how many niggas you drop when you listen to a little wayne song and you think that nobody like
Starting point is 00:31:56 i don't know nothing about i don't know what uh blackface party you went to in college that you thought was like dope and you dressed as nikki minaj but there's no footage because facebook like i don't know i know y'all be going to jamaica and getting those cornrows so it's like the boderics yeah i don't honestly i can't say that you are not one of them and it's not for me to make you feel better and i like i wrote it on twitter but i didn't i wasn't expecting people to write me but it's like when 9-11 happened and i'm a new yorker everybody was reaching out like are you okay like i know what you've seen i know you weren't there i know you're alive but like how do you feel right we got all of those messages we like every the whole world poured out to every
Starting point is 00:32:37 fucking new yorker but when this shit happens we don't hear nothing nobody is reaching out to say hey i know you just saw someone get killed on camera unjustified no they're reaching out now so if it happened on thursday yeah amy cooper was the beginning of the week that was we haven't even touched on that bitch that beige beach bitch and then uh floyd happened and then saturday sunday and monday mainly is when white people were really in my inbox and in my dms and messaging me to be like hey i'm just checking in on you i see you i hear you and it's like yeah i posted in my stories that you should reach out to your black friend but really what you should be doing is reaching out to your white family members and your white friends yeah because it's also you shouldn't have
Starting point is 00:33:29 to be prompted to be like let me check in on the the way y'all organized for these fucking dogs i mean whatever you're doing for them pita bitch i need you to pull up and do all of that for actual human beings yeah but like there's no but there i agree with sydney 100 percent uh Because the thing is that I don't want to sit there and be like, oh, these white people are evil. Because they'll find it in their heart to figure out some shit for something like, I don't know, dogs. So if you can do that for them, you're telling me that dogs' lives are more important than ours? Then what the fuck are we doing? We don't have anything to talk about.
Starting point is 00:34:14 Then why are we working together? Why are we in each other's community? If that's how you really feel, then let's really separate then. Then don't fuck with me. I mean, there's a whole documentary or a whole series on Netflix about the cat killer guy. And y'all rallied. It was. Rallied for some cats.
Starting point is 00:34:35 Don't fuck with cats. For cats. I said that woman who was in Vegas while she was on the case, I need her to get on this George Ford case. I need her to get on the Breonna Taylor case. I need her to get on these cases. I need her to get on the Tupac case. i need her to get on all the cases uh of all things black because like what and and if that has to be something that has to be broken down to you don't even get me started on this all lives
Starting point is 00:34:58 matter both like people have already i think dragged y'all through the mud about that uh this all lives matter thing if we telling you black lives matter and you're saying all lives matter that's so you so you what do we see keep getting killed though yes and it's like blue lies no you don't you're not born blue you're born whatever color you are and then you fail out of college or whatever you do and then you become a cop and then you start killing black people you're not born blue blue lives are not more important than anybody else's lives blue lives don't exist so you guys can stop saying the craziest thing is that they give cops like so much like love but like firefighters literally go into burning buildings also they don't know if they're
Starting point is 00:35:43 gonna come out no one no one's ever said fuck the fire department never no one literally no one has ever said that can we talk about that never also like we put we we're protesting police brutality and y'all sending more cops to be more violent somebody on twitter said it makes sense someone's on twitter said that's like sending the fire department to fight fire with more fire yeah like to throw fire on top of a burning building yeah like that's not what they do and a lot and it'd be mad volunteer firefighters a lot of them not even getting paid they just want to put out fires just cuz no they're not even getting paid to save your ikea couch from burning what is happening and then it's like you guys are seeing the same shit that we're seeing so if you if we
Starting point is 00:36:31 seeing it and you seeing it and then you're like but bitch what yeah oh they left on a but what about chicago what about chicago how do you think that city got the way it got if it was not for y'all who do you think got the guns to chicago black people riddle me this what came first the looting or the police brutality the the police brutality or the protesting you tell nobody is just out there protesting because nothing was fucking happening well i mean what comes first the the non-violent protests or the violent protests because if you're not listening to a sing you're not listening to dr king you're not listening to the nigga in the church shoes that's marching across a bridge with like well other well-dressed you throwing dogs at him
Starting point is 00:37:22 What makes you think that we are going to be doing this? We're not keeping the same energy in 2020. That's not what we do here. No, ma'am. New year, new me, new decade. There's new black people. We're not doing what they were doing because it didn't work for them. But also, we still want to give props to everybody who was fighting the good fight in the 40s, 50s, 60s.
Starting point is 00:37:43 All the years. Yeah, we're not them. But also, yeah, we aren't them because some of the resilience that they had, I don't think I could do. I cannot get hosed down. No, no, no. I'm not getting hosed down and then getting up the next day to go protest again. You hosed me down, I'm knocked out for the year. That's it.
Starting point is 00:38:02 The fire department was hosing people down during the civil rights movement, and we cool with the fire department now. Can you just do a little bit of work on you so this can go away, so this can be better? can you deal with these corrupt politicians and these these terrible cops and these police unions and these racist white women who and white men who say oh a black person robbed me and it's like actually no that's not what happened it was a white person or no there was a woman who was supposed to get married some white lady i don't remember it was like a couple years ago and she got cold feet you didn't go to the wedding and she showed up a couple days later and said she got kidnapped by a black man and it was like sis you just didn't you just didn't want to get
Starting point is 00:38:49 married a black man kidnapped you how really explain what happened i don't remember that was that's the part of the story that i remember she was it was like on the it was on the news she said that she got kidnapped and she didn't go to her wedding and she was gone for x amount of days but sis was home or in a hotel she gone girl she was a gone girl gone girl and she said a black person did it now if you're still listening to this you know which i'm not going to give you uh what you should i'm not going to give you a pat on your back for still listening to this because you should be listening to this but if we're at this point where you're like you saw amy cooper on camera doing the stunts that she did with all of the confidence not even feeling bad not one bit
Starting point is 00:39:34 that was caught on camera imagine all the shit that's happening that we can't catch sis was choking her dog and the people that were watching and commenting were like, the poor dog. And it's like, this dude's out there watching birds. So you already know what kind of black person that is. He probably, if she gave him a chance, could be her type, but she
Starting point is 00:39:54 didn't like that it was a black man. And she's crying into fake tears and he's threatening me and my dog. The dog is like, sis, I'm ready to go with him and leave you. What are you doing right now? The dog is like, I can't breathe.
Starting point is 00:40:10 And then people were like, people watched that video and had the audacity, audacity to write anything other than, yeah, that bitch has got to go. Arrest her. She needs to be arrested. Yeah. For falsely accusing somebody of doing a crime that they didn't even, he didn't even do anything. Also, it's not illegal to call 911 and waste these people's time.
Starting point is 00:40:37 Y'all, you can't get arrested for that. honey they love when time is wasted there was a video and and so there was a video that i saw yesterday after i got off the phone with you it was a woman on the upper east side or something black woman and this like socialite like russian mom lady was upset with her being it looked like they were on the high line that's what it looked like to me so i don't know what where on the upper east that is but so they're outside and this black lady's just sitting outside her building enjoying the weather and this white woman comes up and it's like you don't live here so you can't be sitting right here and the video starts with her just like she called the cops like four five
Starting point is 00:41:17 six times and she's like i'm she's threatening me and my kids this like pregnant lady she's fake crying the same the same amy cooper rule book and this black lady is like if you're so scared why are you sitting directly across from me also i live here like my building is right i just came down here for some air not that she has to explain herself to this woman but the cops never came and i think the cops never came and far as i know she did not get in trouble it's like you called the cops how many times you said you feared for your life but you're sitting across from me in your sandals yeah they're like oh you called four times she's still alive this is a lie yeah she's on the phone she's like an african-american woman is threatening me and my kids can you please
