1. 0:00What he did was the biggest mangina
2. 0:02monologue I've ever seen in my life.
3. 0:04>> And then all And then there's another
4. 0:06thing, too. I'm not going to lie. The
5. 0:07work ethic of Americans it it's hard for
6. 0:11them to trust it. But in America, no
7. 0:13shade to you guys, you're just
8. 0:14incompetent for a really long time. All
9. 0:17right, I'm glad y'all didn't hear that.
10. 0:18>> Uh hi. I've got a lot of thoughts. Many
11. 0:20I've already shared on my YouTube
12. 0:22channel. Here's what I will say. First
13. 0:23of all, he was born in New York. I keep
14. 0:26trying to explain to these musty, dusty,
15. 0:29dirt cookie eating fleers and their
16. 0:31descendants that just because I hang out
17. 0:33in Jeff St. James garage does not make
18. 0:36me a Lambo. You can look like me all you
19. 0:37want to. You can try to act like me and
20. 0:39talk like me, walk like me, all like
21. 0:41that. Last time I saw somebody do that,
22. 0:43his name was King Louie and he said,
23. 0:45"Ooh, ooh, ooh. I want to be like you.
24. 0:48That's what he is. He's an ape. He acted
25. 0:50like a park ape on a global platform and
26. 0:53decided to disrespect my people. I'm not
27. 0:55an African-American. I'm a foundational
28. 0:57black American. He played a foundational
29. 0:59black American and then turned around
30. 1:01and spent that entire interview, and
31. 1:02this is what everybody on the internet
32. 1:04is missing, and I haven't even said this
33. 1:05publicly yet, but as the only graduate
34. 1:08of the Hollywood machine here, I will be
35. 1:10the one to tell you. He was doing what
36. 1:11we call casting call virtue signal,
37. 1:14which means he would say things like,
38. 1:16"Well, you know, I'm not problematic. I
39. 1:18am cheaper." And he's saying it in a
40. 1:19passive-aggressive, bitch-made, tethery,
41. 1:21roundabout way, but that's what he's
42. 1:23saying. And then he goes on to say, "You
43. 1:25know, and then I just want to be a
44. 1:27person playing a role. I don't just want
45. 1:30I don't want to be black."
46. 1:31>> Respectfully to your platform, Jeffrey,
47. 1:33[ __ ] please. What I need you to
48. 1:34understand is that entire thing was a
49. 1:37signal to white casting directors, white
50. 1:39producers, white Hollywood taste taste
51. 1:41makers, and the small-headed people who
52. 1:43fund these folks to let them know that
53. 1:46he is what I call a safe negro. He is an
54. 1:49O'Nat tether. That's a special kind of
55. 1:51tether. An O'Nat tether, for those of
56. 1:52you who do not know what O'Nat means,
57. 1:54it's one [ __ ] at a time. He wants to be
58. 1:55that one [ __ ] at a time because he was
59. 1:57on Jessica Jones and as a Marvel fan, I
60. 1:58don't even remember him. You know what I
61. 2:00do remember? Him sitting there across
62. 2:02from a cut, over sect, weird mad hatter
63. 2:06from Gotham escapee from Arkham Asylum
64. 2:09allowing him to say that and only
65. 2:11putting giving any type of pushback by
66. 2:13saying, "Can Can I Can I disagree?" The
67. 2:15whole thing reeked of cucky, [ __ ]
68. 2:17assery, beta male sit mangina energy.
69. 2:20And then on top of that, before I land,
70. 2:22he of course got a gig working with
71. 2:24Tyler Perry, a foundational black
72. 2:26American. Before that, he had a gig
73. 2:28working for 50 Cent. Whether his beef
74. 2:29with Big Meech is relevant or not is
75. 2:32beside the point. Last I checked, 50
76. 2:33Cent was a foundational black American.
77. 2:35There are too many people around here
78. 2:37who wouldn't bust a grape in a fruit
79. 2:38fight, who wouldn't have that same
80. 2:39energy if it wasn't for a closed set
81. 2:40with a bunch of white people watching
82. 2:42that he had when he was sitting there.
83. 2:43What he did was the biggest mangina
84. 2:46monologue I've ever seen in my life. I
85. 2:48wouldn't piss on this man if he was on
86. 2:50fire. He is absolute trash. He a little
87. 2:53soft, a little sassy. And to top it all
88. 2:55off, he's out here begging for a job on
89. 2:57a football player show. I can't. I'll
90. 2:59end it there for now. First of all,
91. 3:01respectfully to everybody, y'all can
92. 3:02miss me with the diaspora [ __ ] Period,
93. 3:04point blank. Because the truth of the
94. 3:06matter is, pan-Africanism, flat
95. 3:08blackness, a race is my culture. Not
96. 3:10doing that. Because everybody else can
97. 3:12come over here and put their flags in
98. 3:13their little Instagram profiles and
99. 3:16nobody says something. The second I say
100. 3:18I'm a foundational black American, now
101. 3:19everybody want to get all up in arms.
102. 3:21No. On top of that, shout out to Uncle
103. 3:23Claude. Uncle Claude has spent, mhm, the
104. 3:26better part of 60 years giving [ __ ]
105. 3:28solutions and [ __ ] don't like to
106. 3:29listen. Minister Farrakhan gave [ __ ]
107. 3:31solutions and they didn't want to
108. 3:32listen. Malcolm gave [ __ ] solutions
109. 3:34and they didn't want to listen. Hell,
110. 3:35Ice Cube tried to give y'all [ __ ]
111. 3:37solutions and y'all didn't want to
112. 3:38listen. So, it's not a matter of having
113. 3:40the blueprint, it's the matter of
114. 3:41everybody trying to lead and and be the
115. 3:43one on the steering wheel trying to
116. 3:44drive the bus instead of just getting
117. 3:46things done. The other part of that is
118. 3:48you have too many glad-handing,
119. 3:50want-to-be tap-dancing, [ __ ] ass
120. 3:52[ __ ] who would rather have their
121. 3:55addiction to white adjacency satiated
122. 3:58over making sure our people are
123. 4:00satisfied. That is why we have food
124. 4:03deserts in the majority black
125. 4:04communities. That is exactly why we have
126. 4:07too many kids reading barely at or below
127. 4:10grade level. This is exactly why we
128. 4:13don't have $500 in cash in case of an
129. 4:16emergency. This is exactly why. And then
130. 4:20thing about other people don't spend
131. 4:21time and energy and so on and so forth.
132. 4:23I vehemently disagree as the former
133. 4:25president of the National Conference of
134. 4:26Christians and Jews, I can tell you for
135. 4:28a fact Jewish people spend a whole lot
136. 4:30of energy checking people. And I'm
137. 4:32sorry. And this is hypothetically and
138. 4:34this is imaginary so I don't want nobody
139. 4:36to get offended cuz I got one too. But
140. 4:38if I was to sit up here and say your
141. 4:39mother's a crack [ __ ] ain't nobody
142. 4:41here who wouldn't try and test my jaw on
143. 4:43that. The problem is foundational black
144. 4:45Americans for too long have sat here and
145. 4:48allowed other people to call our mama
146. 4:50crack [ __ ] and every damn thing else.
147. 4:52And then when we finally say, "Oh no,
148. 4:53you didn't." Now it's "Well, you know,
149. 4:55everybody's got something and every
150. 4:58we all are No, we're not. Here's what I
151. 5:01mean. Here, when we're talking about
152. 5:02building. The microphone that I'm
153. 5:04talking through came from a black man.
154. 5:06The internet that we're doing this show
155. 5:07on came from a black woman. We can talk
156. 5:09about how we feel about things or we can
157. 5:11talk about the actual facts. Last I
158. 5:14checked, there is no bushmeat crisis in
159. 5:16the black American community. Last I
160. 5:18checked, there's no water running crisis
161. 5:21in the black American community. Last I
162. 5:23checked, has anybody here had a mud
163. 5:25cookie for dinner in the past ever?
164. 5:28Strong no. So, miss me with the false
165. 5:30comparisons because the other part of
166. 5:32that is the foreigners who come over
167. 5:34here are the best of the worst. And by
168. 5:36that, I'm talking about from a financial
169. 5:38standpoint because it takes a lot of
170. 5:40money to get into this country. Because
171. 5:41this country is great. You can talk
172. 5:43about all of the ills of this country
173. 5:44and trust me, huh, I've written volumes
174. 5:47of books about the ills of this country.
175. 5:49However, it's still the best place on
176. 5:51Earth, and it is the best place on Earth
177. 5:53for black people. Period, point-blank.
178. 5:55Cuz ain't nobody running anywhere else
179. 5:58in droves. So, until these folks find a
180. 6:01way to stop warring with each other,
181. 6:03take the Igbo and Yoruba in Nigeria,
182. 6:06take the South Africans who are kicking
183. 6:09out illegal Nigerians out of South
184. 6:11Africa, and I'm talking about the black
185. 6:12ones, not the Elon Musk ones. Until such
186. 6:14time as Jamaicans stop saying on camera,
187. 6:18where you can Google it, that they would
188. 6:19rather die than let one more Haitian
189. 6:21immigrant into their country, miss me
190. 6:23with the diaspora [ __ ] Miss me with the
191. 6:25flat blackness. Miss me with the
192. 6:27pan-goofiness. Because pan-goofies get
193. 6:30you things like Umar Johnson's Hotep
194. 6:32Hogwarts that don't exist. And I'll land
195. 6:34there.
196. 6:34>> Dave, for the brevity of time, can you
197. 6:37give a very 120-second basis of why this
198. 6:41FBA thing is, what is it representing,
199. 6:44and what is it that they
200. 6:45>> want? First of all, it's not a movement.
201. 6:46Like [ __ ] is an organization. That ain't
202. 6:49got nothing to do with us. Foundational
203. 6:50Black Americans are lineage. They are
204. 6:52the people who were either here or mixed
205. 6:55in with the people who were in the
206. 6:57transatlantic slave trade, the 300,000
207. 6:59or so that were brought here. That's it,
208. 7:01and that's all. Aside from that, of
209. 7:02course, reparations, but that's not just
210. 7:05it. It is everything that we were
211. 7:08promised and equality. And I'm just
212. 7:10going to keep it there for for brevity
213. 7:11of time. It is not a movement. It is not
214. 7:14an organization. It's not a clique, a
215. 7:16band, a record label, or a crew. That
216. 7:18that's it. It is literally an ethnic
217. 7:21distinction. I I I don't know how to
218. 7:23make that any plainer. I'll put it a
219. 7:24different way. My mother, who's 80 years
220. 7:26old, is older than Nigeria. People have
221. 7:28no problem calling people of that area
222. 7:29Nigerians. That's what it is. Y'all can
223. 7:31try and turn it into a movement, turn it
224. 7:33into all this or all this. It It's not
225. 7:35going to be that.
226. 7:36>> The man had 2.1 million followers on
227. 7:39Instagram. 48 hours later, he has 1.9.
228. 7:42>> Couple of things. The UK guy thought
229. 7:44that the professor was just going to
230. 7:46co-sign his BS because he makes a career
231. 7:48out of talking trash about foundational
232. 7:50black Americans. Matter of fact, his
233. 7:52some of his biggest videos have my face
234. 7:53in them.
235. 7:54>> Yep.
236. 7:54>> So, like that's what he does. He goes
237. 7:56after people because he's all the way
238. 7:58across the pond. All this unity, like
239. 8:01Rick James and Queen Latifah decided to
240. 8:02do a duet and yet and still they're over
241. 8:04there talking greasy about us. But
242. 8:06they're so much better. There is an
243. 8:09individual at the University of
244. 8:10Pennsylvania, which is an Ivy League
245. 8:11institution, named Lia Thomas. And Lia
246. 8:14Thomas, when she was a man, was 554th
247. 8:19in the 200-yard freestyle, but the
248. 8:21second he, she, they decided to get into
249. 8:25the trans movement, they became first.
250. 8:28So, if you're 555th throughout the
251. 8:30diaspora, come here and become number
252. 8:32two. You're You're being trans-
253. 8:34foundational. Good job, numbnuts. Again,
254. 8:36like the guy said, you are comparing the
255. 8:40best of you with the mid of us. There
256. 8:43are more black millionaires in this
257. 8:44country than any place else. We are the
258. 8:46most successful group of black people
259. 8:49than any place else, barring Mansa Musa,
260. 8:51where we actually control a certain
261. 8:54things.
262. 8:55Now, when it comes to change, and I want
263. 8:57to be extremely clear on this and then
264. 8:58I'll wrap. I'm on Capitol Hill quite a
265. 9:00bit. I have an organization that I've
266. 9:02had for quite some time called the
267. 9:03Financial Services Innovation Coalition.
268. 9:05We fight for everything from financial
269. 9:06literacy to reparations, and we actually
270. 9:08lobby and put money up. I don't like
271. 9:11what happens on social media, so I
272. 9:12started an app called Jaro Go. You ain't
273. 9:14got to say unalive the great. Unlike
274. 9:16some people, I can acknowledge
275. 9:18disrespect and educate black kids on a
276. 9:21collegiate level, put kids through
277. 9:22college. I started a tutoring program
278. 9:24called Black Boys Win, and I'm I'm
279. 9:26launching an HBCU tour, where I'm
280. 9:28teaching AI integration through
281. 9:30entrepreneurship. So, I'm walking my
282. 9:32walk. I don't know about nobody else. I
283. 9:34am the son, brother, grandson, nephew,
284. 9:37and father of educators. I am not here
285. 9:39to decipher why Tethers babble. I am not
286. 9:42here to try and figure out why people
287. 9:43have their panties in a bunch and have
288. 9:45their manginas all up in arms because
289. 9:47they are not happy as to where they are
290. 9:49in life. Sucks to be you. Tough titty.
291. 9:52Cry it out. Cry me a river. Build a
292. 9:54bridge and get over it. Because here's
293. 9:56what's happened. That young man, whether
294. 9:58you choose to acknowledge it or not,
295. 10:00whether you choose to babble and explain
296. 10:01it away, whether you choose to say,
297. 10:04"Well, you know,
298. 10:05he kind of meant this and we needed to
299. 10:07differentiate this point from that
300. 10:08point." His best friend when he got to
301. 10:10LA was coaching him and there's video of
302. 10:12this. Coaching him on doing it again and
303. 10:14doing it again when he's trying to
304. 10:16self-tape for auditions. And the funny
305. 10:18thing is when you look at those
306. 10:19auditions, he was lazy because the dude
307. 10:21was pushing him too hard. On top of
308. 10:23that, he has said on many occasions that
309. 10:25he did not want to be like Black
310. 10:27Americans. He just wants to play roles
311. 10:29and this that and the third. So, his
312. 10:30behavior historically before the Cam
313. 10:32Newton interview was rooted in what
314. 10:34Darwin can't seem to find the words to
315. 10:36say, which is anti-blackness.
316. 10:38And so, I'm not going to pretend that a
317. 10:41bigot is not a bigot because he shares
318. 10:43my skin color. And I'm not going to
319. 10:44pretend that behavior that is
320. 10:46disrespectful shouldn't be checked
321. 10:48because there's too many [ __ ] who
322. 10:49aren't willing to walk and chew gum at
323. 10:50the same time in our land. Good night.
