Do You Have a Hidden Agenda

morning show. Good morning Usa yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo. Good morning, angela Ye, good morning. He's damby Cholomagne, the god beast to the planet is Monday, and let me shout out to Toronto. Good morning, Torondo, the sixth what's happening in the sixth Man, It feels good to be back.

Even though America is burning. We can't sit here and act like we don't know why it's burning though, right, we all know how we got here. We got we got three perfect storms brun out once in America, you know, coronavirus, and then of course the killing of George Floyd. Good, good old, good old fashioned racism, all right, And like I've been saying, ain't no good gonna come to America until they do right by black people. America is never

truly atone for his original sin, which is slavery. And they put black people through so damn much and haven't given us a damn thing back. America owes black people for building this country. And you wonder why so many black folks have a problem with patriotism, It's because how can we salute a country that enslaved us and continues to brutalize us. Come on, now, it's not act like we don't know what's going on in this country right now.

And like you said, forty million people unemployed, largest unemployment number since the Depression era. Of course, people out here Luton, they feel deprived in one of the wealthiest nations in the world. They want some of those luxuries y'all taught them how to love. Okay, America acts completely clueless in regards to the plight of the poor. And let's not forget too, America's also rebelling against fascism. Okay, that goddamn

Trump administration. America's out here rebelling against that fascist regime. They out here rebelling against racism and bigotry. We know, we know how we got here. Come on, come on, people, it's not that clueless. This morning, and hopefully this morning will we'll hear from the district attorney and the other three cops will be charged. I'm praying that they'll do the right thing in charge those three officers. That's gonna

happen because they put Keith Ellison. Keith Ellison is one of the prosecutors on the case that I think they removed their original DA from Keith Ellison as a brother. So I'm pretty sure that they're probably gonna lock those three officers up real soon, if they're not already locked up. But I don't know. I haven't I haven't checked the news this morning, I haven't seen anything else yet, but I hope, hopefully what they will be locked up by this morning. All right, Well, let's get the show crack

in front page News. What we're talking about you, Well, of course, i'll be giving you updates on what happened overnight, and we'll talk about Attorney General Keith Ellison, leading the prosecution of George Floyd's death. We'll tell you when can you expect Shopping to be back in court. He was supposed to be in court actually today, but that date has been delayed. So we'll tell you what that next

date is. And we'll just be giving you updates of what's going on in response to George Floyd's death around around the country and around the world. All right, we'll get into that next. Can we listen? Can we start with a modern day negro spiritual because we have song to get us through these troubling times, because because we have to have a case of optimism, right, we gotta

believe everything. Everything's gonna be good, don't we. My God, My God told me, My God told me to tell y'all this morning that we're gonna be high dark nights and my prayers. Morning. Everybody is DJ v Angela, Ye, Charlomagne and God, we all the breakfast club. Let's getting some front page news where we start? Ye? Well, this morning front page news will be talking all about George Floyd. Now, Derek Chavin, the officer arrested and George Floyd's death has

a record of shootings and complaints. They said they were at least eighteen conducts complaints filed against him. Two of them resulted in reprimands. It feels like that's not enough. Now he did Also, they were supposed to have him in court this morning, but it looks like that date has been delayed. They didn't really give a reason why the date was delayed. But now he'll be in court on June eighth, so that's his next court hearing. Now,

George Floyd's brother spoke to Donald Trump. Here is Donald Trump discussing speaking to the family of George Floyd. The death of George Floyd on the streets of Minneapolis was a grave tragedy. It should never have happened. It has filled amr all over the country with horror, anger, and grief. Yesterday I spoke to George's family and expressed the sorrow of foreign entire nation for their loss. Now, George's brother, Philonie Floyd, said that the conversation that he did have

with Donald Trump was pretty quick. Here's what he said. It was hard. I was trying to talk to him, but he just kept pushing me off, like I don't want to hear what you're talking about and I just told him I want justice. I said, I can't believe that they committed a modern day lynching and broad daylight all right. George Floyd's family also intends to have an independent autopsy performed. There was a lot of outraigs over the medical examiner saying that there is no physical findings

of traumatic asphyxia or extangulation. They said that George Floyd likely died from a compilation of police restraint, underlying health conditions, and any potential in toxicans and assists m George Floyd's family is now doing their own autopsy. Ben Crump, who was the family's attorney, said that he and the family reject the notion from the Minneapolis Medical Examiner that the knee from the police officer on George's neck for almost nine minutes was not the proximate cause of his death.

So they're trying to make it seem like it was also underlying health conditions and the fact that he had been drinking. Okay, yeah, so we all didn't see the video of a white devil, racist bigot with his knee on the back of George's next now, over and over, I can't breathe, come on, we seen it was what was the relationship that they knew each other, they worked

with each other, Was any of that true effectual? Well, they both worked yeah, one of them, you know, Chavin obviously was a police officer that did security, but he also worked with George Floyd. But George Floyd, they said, they may not have known each other. Their paths might not have crossed, so it's not certainly they knew each other. Okay, it's just crazy that this guy even still had a job. Like, I mean, he shot and killed a brother the name Wayne Rees in two thousand and six, and then shot

multiple civilians while in uniform. Like you tell me, at what what job can you have where you keep making those kind of mistakes and still still stay employed. Well, they said, even in one of the closes where he worked, there were a lot of complaints against him. Even the owner had to reprimand him at times because he was too aggressive when speaking to the patrons. So it looks

like he had an ongoing issue. Attorney General Keith Ellison will be leading the prosecution of George Floyd's death now, the governor announced Sunday he has asked him to assist County Attorney Mike Freeman in the forthcoming case, and he Ellison has accepted that case. They plan on meeting actually today to start their joint work. The score right now, cops, you've allowed four to five days with people tearing up cities all across America simply because you don't want to

arrest three police officers. Makes no sense. Should have been arrested, that would be that would be an easy trade for me. Burn burn Now cities across America arrest three cops. George Floyd's family did speak to the police that Minneapolis please directly for the first time live on CNN, and one of the questions that Floyd's brother asked was whether the other officers involved would be arrested, and police chief responded, being silent or not intervening to me, you're being complicit.

Mister Floyd died in our hands. So I'm not sure what's going to happen, but feels like that is what has to happen. All right, WELLLA is your front page news. Get it off your chest eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. If you need to vent, you need to highlight us, call us up right now, phone line to wide open. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the breakfast Club. I'm telling of year. This is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad

or blessed. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. We want to hear from you on the breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Hey? And be what's going on this morning? Break what up? Man? Get it off your chests? Bro? Good morning, Good morning to Angelo point eli man. Um,

your your dad was a cop, right? Um? I have a suggestion, and I don't know if it's something that they already do, but I remember, um doctor doctor did Gregory remember mentioning, why don't we have tops be licensed like like a physician or like a CDL driver where they have to go every couple of years and get recertified and they're retested because I think when they get into the fourth um done into the UM law enforcements, they gotta take physicals, they gotta take psychological exams, and

then later on they get all these reprimands and they get all these um uh, bad things on their records, but they're still allowed to remain cops because there's no recertification program and nothing like that. They don't get retrained for certain things. So it's like you keep all these bad cops on on on on on the fourth and they have all these bad records because we don't we don't recertify them for a couple of years. I think

that's the top. Every couple of years. We should be able to do your physical all over, and you should do your psychological exams all over so that you don't have these these bad apt pool and in the bunge measuring it all up and not knowing how to deal with the public. Yeah, my dad has been an officer for over fifteen years on the job. But I think they do retrain. I think you do have to take a test every couple of years. I know when you retire, every year you have to take a test to maintain

that you can keep your weapon, your service weapon. But that's a good thing. But I think they should be checked mentally as well, not just physical, y'all, just being able for mentally as well. I think you should be like a lighted police officer in the sense of listen if if if you have certain things on your record of what a period of time, just like if you

have a driving record, you have your life. I agree, because what are all those complaints for if nothing happens, if people are filing these complaints, and what's the whole point of the civilian complaint board? Yeah? I agree. It should definitely be a point system. And if you have a certain amount of points, you lose your your your license as being a police officer, just like you would lose your license as a driver. I agree, Thank you, Red.

And you also have and you also have to set a certain precedent by charging your damn cops when they shoot and kill people. Okay, a dude shopping had killed somebody in two thousand and six. What are we talking about him? Yes? Hello, who's this? He's Brian called forbody watch in DC. Running from DC. What's up, broke? Get it off your chests, hey man, We're just calling and say that some of the protests downtown last night yesterday evening down the White House. Man, it's a lot of

a lot of white people out there. They're doing all the Vanderlist, doing all least track lives matters. Hey, stuff man, it's making us a fan. Just want to not have them pointing the finger at us. Some point the finger here, who's really doing all the Vanderlist and make all the writers everything. Yeah, I saw a lot of that online. I saw people white people writing Black Lives Matter on the wall and say, dude, what do you Yeah, but

I don't understand. I really think, um, America, that probably that has to piss them off to see white people fighting alongside black people, like like America can now have the narrative that white kids are actually fighting for black folks, right, So America can't have the narrative that white kids are fed up with the direction of this country that defeats the whole purpose of white supremacy. That has to be

a white supremacist worst nightmare to think that. Yeah, I don't even know if it's I'm fighting for us then taking advantage of the situation and using house for their push their agenda, because I mean, you got people down there it's yelling no, don't do that, don't take that, don't do that, stop doing it, you know us, because we're there trying to get our point across, and they guy's just he's burning and everything else, and it's making

it hard to get the actual message across. If you're gonna cause all this destruction, Yeah, I think it's a little bit of both. I think it's someone on our side and doing what's right, and I think it's some taking in advantage. I see one dude looked like he had a whole goal pro set up in his crib, and then on the ceiling he had like a Maga shirt. So yeah, it's a lot of people taking advantage as well.

You're gonna always have coin to a pro that disrupt protests, but you know, you can't post me that say things like I wish they love black people the way they love black culture, and then when they show up for black people and want to fight with us, we'd be like, wait a minute, you might be an agent that some of them all, you know, some of them all get it off but just fed up, and some of them are fact that if I was, if I was a white supremacist, I'll be out here spinning the narrative too,

saying that those people are planting in their agents, because I would not want anybody to think that Americas are actually unifying white people actually out there fighting for black people's rights. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one Get it off your chests. It's the breakfast Club. Come on the breakfast club. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're man like from you on the breakfast club, but if you got something on your mind, Hello, who's this woun Get it off

your chests? Bro doing all man? You know, I just want to get off you get high praise. Everybody's going on right now because I know it's a lot of things you know in this world that you know sometimes you can't understand, but you know, we gotta get through it. And I definitely got my chest about a lot of these celebrities. The celebrities is not using their voice, use their voice for the people. They are so much worried

about their assets. When when when when all other people, all our people, give them get you know, all type of resources to make them who they are. But when it comes to politics, and I don't understand, you know, everybody's not you know it's a politics, but at least for our people, you know, say something. Don't stay silent. Don't stay silently y'all. You know people worried about oh people bring it into the Gucca do when Gucci don't really don't care nothing about us? So why support where

support people don't care about us? But celebrities have all this power, but then standing solid, I'll say this, I don't know that I look at this time of celebrities to see like what does this person think about things? But I do feel like, yes, yeah, but I understand being this to point it in some people who you feel like, wow, I thought they'd be you know, at least say something about it. But again, I don't look

at celebrities for that. Yeah, I mean either I'm looking I'm not looking at that celebrities to be like, oh man, I'm gonna go to his page and see what he said. I mean, I don't care, honestly, not at this point, not at this time. I think. I think everybody that's being loud right now are the people that's supposed to be in loud, And that's the actual people, you know what I mean, And not dimension even when it comes

to some of the celebrities. Everybody fights different, Like you don't know what people are doing, you know, behind the scenes, what kind of calls are being made, what kind of meetings are being had. Like just because a person isn't showing up to a protest doesn't mean that they're not out there fighting. Some people fight different everybody got a position to play. Absolutely. Hello, who's this hey, miss Monique,

come on and get it off your chests. Yeah. Well, I'm very upset about how George Floyd was murdered in Minneapolis. You know, I didn't even know that that happened because I don't watch the news like that to this pandemic. And my son told me that my son is twenty two, and he told me what went down, and I was like what. And when I said that, it's just like touched me. When I heard that man say he can't breathe,

it was like Eric Gardner all over again. You know, it's touching, Like, you know, my family re from Alabama, so now I'll see why my grandmother ran from down there, you know, and she's still dealing with racism. I know, police in corrupt, but this this got to stop. Just have to stop, right. We can't, we can't. We can't take it no more. Our heart is bleeding, our hearts is bleeding. You know, we want justice. We want this man in jail for what he did to George Floyd.

I don't condone the riots. I don't condone any of the riots at all, but as far as justice needs to be served all right, now, just keep on happening with no repercussions, Like this is ridiculous, And why do we keep saying all cops aren't corrupt. The whole police system is corrupt. So if you're a part of that system, you're a part of that corruption, especially if you're not doing anything to change it. Yeah, but I think she means all police officers aren't bad. That's what I think

she meant. And she's right, all police officers are bad. There's a lot of and there's a lot of police officer I'm standing up right now saying it is wrong and saying what that that chocole was wrong and saying that that that officer needs to be arrested and needs to be charged with murders. So there's there's there's some officers standing up and we've been joining the protests. Yeah, but the whole system is corrupt, Like the whole entire system is a corrupt system. So it doesn't even make

any sense to say one individual it's not corrupt. I mean it does. I mean for some people, she just saying she knows that all cops aren't bad, which is which is facts, which is true. All cops all cops aren't bad, but the system is. The whole system is terrible. Get it off your chest. Eight hundred five five, one oh five one. If you need to vent, you can hit us up at any time. Now, we got rumors on the way. Yes, and just In responds to the caller who was upset about celebrities not speaking up and

speaking out. What's tell you what's been happening in the celet pretty world when it comes to George Floyd, who is speaking out and who is going back and forth on social media with people. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it loft. This the breakfast club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. P j Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We all the breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Tory Lanes. So Tory Lanes and Chicana had a back and forth. You know Chicana from Love and

Hip Hop Atlanta. Now, Chicana was on her life previously and she was talking about the looting and the protesting and she wants people to stop tearing up businesses. Here's what that sounded like. Y'all, y'all can say whatever y'all want to say they Rice is whatever, I don't want to hit. Yeah, well, Tory Lane's posted with all the things going on, I'm seeing this lady crying over the Gucci store being broken into the f and Gucci store.

Shorty well Chicana then was in his comments on his life, and he did put her on and the two of them had a conversation, and here is how it went. Have you going outside of the marsh with the people yet? Now I had a marsh with the people. Have you been around when the looting is going on? Have you've been around in like any of those places where it has been going on, in the moments of it going on, and now I haven't been. I'm not I don't appreciate

that white man killing less. I don't think that's cool. I'm not with that, But I don't think I don't think we're gonna get into web by stealing these people. Goochie, I don't even wear it anyway. It's another way we could get out. Point across the brock, I scream, I'm black. You thought we angry? Right? Listen, man, Both of them are entitled to their opinions. But those buildings will be back. But the lives of Black people killed at the hands

of the police are gone forever. So to me, when you just tell protesters, rioters, whatever you want to call them to just cut it out, it's not that simple. You're not acknowledging the pain of the people. You've given folks, nor the choice, nor the outlet they expressed themselves. Plus they don't think they're gonna get justice any other way. Folks have a right to be angry, and sadly, when they're angry, they're gonna express that ain't in various ways,

and in tearing up buildings is one of them. Man, did y'all see that old black and who they tore up his business? There's a lot of people, minorities crying business and stock and it's been ruined. Talking about the old video from the nineties during the Rodney King rights. Now he wasn't yelling, he was crying. You know. There's there's a couple of business has been burned down and people can say, I can never go back, I can't afford you know, my insurance doesn't cover all of it.

So a lot of minorities at her point, and I agree with that, And you shouldn't point the finger at the looters, point the finger at America. This is America's part. If you're gonna point a finger at the looters, you gotta point two fingers back in America. The America is the root cause of this all right now, Machine Gun Kelly has raised his voice to talk about protesting, and he actually was outside protesting as well. He posted some pictures and here's what he had to say to his fans.

If you look like me, if you have racism in your heart and on your mind and coming out your mouth, you I'm ashamed of you. If you enjoy my music or you like my movies, I don't want you watching. I don't want your business you. I don't want nothing. That's a part of the evil agenda. And that's not what our generations legacy is gonna be. Stuff up and speak out for our fellow people going through all this hell right now, and and encourage good evil is running

the show. Man, take it back from them, these motherfucker I agree, Man, dropping the clues bombs from Machine and Kelly, and dropping the clues bomb for all the white kids, all the white people out there fighting with the black poles, standing side by side with with your black brothers, and sisters, and every white supremacist in America right now is confused. Its hell. Lasting America wants at a time like this

is unity. I actually think it's a white supremacists worst nightmare to have white people out there actually fighting with black people. That's why they keep trying to push the narrative out there that you know, these white folks are being paid to do that, their agents. I'm sure it's cointell pro and these protests black and white, but for the ones that aren't agents, and they just out there fighting because they love black people. Salute to you white folks. Yeah,

I love I absolutely positively love that. And on a side note, I didn't know skateboards with that that strong skateboards, but the damage to skateboards like skateboards, damn skateboards is gangster is hell. I'm gonna tell you something. I'm so happy that there's so many white people out there because if it was just us negroes, oh they have got us. It had been so much desk this weekend now, it

had been so much missing black folks. If it was just black folks out there, white folks that are actually out there for the right cause, carry on all right now. Michael Jordan has also spoken out amongst amidst everything that's happening with George Floyd, and he released a statement. He said, I am deeply sad and truly pained and plain angry.

I see and feel everyone's pain, outrage and frustration. I stand with those who are calling out the ingrained racism and violence to our people of color in our country. We have had enough, so that was part of the statement that Michael Jordan put out. He said, I don't have the answers, but our collective voice is so strength and the inability to be divided by others. We must listen to each other, show compassion and empathy, and never

turn our backs on senseless brutality. We need to continue peaceful expressions against injustice and demand accountability our unified our unified voice needs to put pressure on our leaders to change our laws or else we need to use our vote to create systematic change. Cardie b also has posted a video and she was talking about the looters and

everybody being upset over the murder of George Floyd. And here's what she had to say about people just being tired of being peaceful seeing people looting and going extremely outraged and as much as people it's so against it. At this point, I feel like I'm not against it, even though it do scare me and I don't want anybody to get hurt. But it's just it's really frustrating. You want to know why, because how many peaceful protests

have we seen. Like I've been doing police brutality videos ever since my teeth been up, and the only that change has been my teeth, Like you know what I'm saying. So it's like, motherfucker could take the grown an adult way and at peaceful people aren't tired of that. So now this is what people have to resort to. She's right. It goes back to what I said earlier. You got to acknowledge the pain of the people like you. You've You've left people with no other choice at least that's

how they fail. They're desperate, they got an other outlet. They expressed themselves. Plus forty million people being unemployed. Man, you know, poverty is real. People have been sitting in the house for three months. They just want to feel good, and you know, if getting some free stuff makes them feel good, sally, that's what they're gonna do. And That's why I think Michael Jordan should set up a pop

up shop and have legal looting. Just let Michael Jordan's buy a building and just put mad Jordan's in there and just let people run up in there, legally dangerous. They might just give them away. Just give anybody get a free pair of Jordans. You know that way, because they even when they see people loo, when you see them stealing sneakers from each other, Wow, yeah you can. That's how you can tain in the chaos a little bit, make it like a fair Factor challenge or something a Hey, well,

I'm angela Year and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, miss ye. Now when we come back, we got front page news. What are we talking about? Yes, I'll give you some updates on what was happening overnight. We'll tell you about the curfews that a lot of these cities, at least forty cities and Washington, d C. Having posed curfews. And we'll tell you some new developments. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep a lock this to breakfast club. Good morning, Good morning. Everybody is

DJ Envy Angela Ye, Charlomagne the guy. We all to breakfast club. Good morning, good morning, we're happening. Let's get in some front page news where we starting you, Well, let's start with George Floyd's family. Now, they spoke with the Minneapolis Police Department for the first time live on the news, and here's what happened. I won't know if he's going to get justice for my brother and arrest all the all and complete being silent or not intervening

to me, you're complicit. So I don't see a level of distinction any different. Obviously they're charging those decisions will have to come through our county attorney's office. Certainly, the FBI is investigating that my decision to fire all four officers was not based on some sort of hierarchy. Mister Floyd died in our hands, and so I see that as being complicit. It's really simple. I mean, I've gotten in trouble before. I've been around people who who've had guns,

who've had drugs. If somebody don't claim the gun, has claimed the drug, all of us go to jail. Like every single one of those people are accessories to murder. All those cops are accessories. Are they are? And in that little bull crap body footage that they released last week, which is disrespectful. Well, it was all bleeped out. You couldn't hear what they were saying, and everything was blacked out.

That that was that was for no reason. And did you see did you see the video that came out yesterday? But it was beating up George Floyd in the back of the in the car. Yeah, absolutely, and then pulled them out of the car. I mean he pulled them out of the car because at first they said he wouldn't get in the car, but then they pulled them out the car. It's crazy. First degree murder accessories the murder.

The first court appearance for a Derek Shavin, who was the former Minnesota police officer charged in the death of George Floyd, has been moved to June eighth. It was supposed to be today, and records indicate no specific reasoning for why that date was reset. But he does remain in custody, and he was charged with third degree murder and second degree manslaughter, two felonies where they say intent is a key element. And it's very important to note

that he shot two people before and killed one. He had a record of twenty complaints to two letters of reprimand there was absolutely no reason for that guy to even still be on the police force. You know what I'm saying. That's why you got to set a certain precedent by charging your damn cops when they shoot and kill people and fire them period. All right. Now, a man who drove a tanker truck into a crowd of protesters in Minnesota Sunday night was charged with assault. I

don't know if you guys saw that. I definitely thought video as well. So that person has been charged with assault. Also, shortly past midnight in Oakland, California, midnight their time, shots were fired at a police administration building. They said at twelve or nine am. Shots were fired at the Oakland building, located at four fifty five seven Street. No injuries reported. Three people have been detained in connection with the shooting. MVU sent us all a video of them looting in

Soho in New York City. Yeah, they were going into the Rolex store, the Chanelle store, Bloomingdale's even got looted, Gucci, Best Buy, everything got looted, you seemed like in New York City. All right, Around four thousand people have been arrested in the United States since George Floyd's death, We're still waiting for three more people to be arrested. By the way, they should have been the first ones in addition to Shavin. But there those people have been arrested

because of the nationwide protests that had been happening. The first arrest began on Tuesday, May twenty six, which was the day after George Floyd was murdered, and YPD officers, some of them did take a knee with protesters in Jamaica Queens. You can see video of them kneeling and uh, people were surprised when the officers went ahead and nailed with them. So there are places where police officers are joining in the protests. And some of the protests in

certain states and certain cities have been peaceful. I know in Newark, New Jersey, with Mayor Rose Baracca, they actually had a very organized marching solidarity with each other, so and Ross Barroca was out there too. The mayor was actually out there walking and kneeling with the people. So it's a lot different. Hey, question, why is it so easy to break into these expensive ask stores? I would

think that it would be a little bit. Why is it so easy, like I would think it would be a little bit harder to break into like the Rolette store. And I mean, if you think about it, when you got hundreds of people breaking into a store, it's not not much any anybody can do. I mean, you can stop right. They don't care if you're caught on camera. They don't care. No, I mean, all that stuff is being able to be broken, the gates of being able

to be ripped apart. Like when people want to get in, they can get in, and you know, usually there's a camera to deter people, or you know, it's usually one or two people that you can deter. But when you got fifty to one hundred people, it's nothing you can do, and they don't care one about my police officers don't post up in front of those like expensive as stores more than they do other places. Well, you gotta think I would think that at the time like this, there'd

be more police presidents. People are protesting all over all over the city, so cops can't get street and being Brooklyn and being soho and being Hall on the you know, I mean, it's it's spread in and then if you one cop and it's one hundred people coming in to getting that stone. What are you that one cop gonna do? Well? I will say, man, just watching all across America, those looters really do have good taste, like all the things

this country has put value on. They went there first, Louis Gucci, Rolex, Alexander McQueen Chanel, all the places I can't pronounce, get some of them luxuries. All right, well that is your front page news. All right, thank you, miss ye. Now when we come back with open them to the phone line. So we're talking to this morning. I want to talk, man to some of the white protesters, the white folks that's out there fighting alongside black folks. Uh.

You know, surprisingly, your uncle Charlotte believes in you. Okay. I know that some of y'all are being painted as agents, and I totally understand why black folks are skeptical of white people being out there fighting alongside us. We have no reason to trust, Okay. But but I'm and I'm sure that there's some cointell pro involved some of these in some of these protests. But I also believe there's white people tied to seeing black folks get killed in

these screens for no reason. And I know it's white folks out there that are fed up with this country and are fighting against the fascist regime. And I just want to hear from y'all white like, white folks. I want to know what are your reasons for being involved right now? I really do. I want to talk directly to the white people that are out there raising hell. All right, well, let's let's get on the phone lines now. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. It's

the Breakfast Club the Morning. Call in right now at your opinion to the Breakfast Club top down, eight one oh five one, The Breakfast Club. It's topic times called eight hundred five eight five one oh five. Want to join it to the discussion with the Breakfast Club, talk about it morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlemagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club, Good morning now

if he just joined us. We've been talking about the protesters because of George Floyd's death, or I should say George Floyd's murder, and Charlota may want to hear this talk to some white people this morning, yeah, because I mean I've just been noticing, man, you know, it's been so many uh you know, white people are fighting side by side with black folks, and it's just like, Yo, I want to talk to you because you know, ironically,

I don't say ironically, that's not the word. Surprisingly. I believe in you, Okay, I know some of it, y'all. I know some of y'all are you know, being painted as agents, and I'm sure that it is from Cointell pro involved in some of these protests. I totally understand why people are skeptical of white folks fighting with black people, but I also believe that it's just white people tired of seeing black folks get killed in these streets for

no reason. And you know that meme, that meme that says I wish they love black people the way they love black culture. It hits different at a time like this. So I know it's some white folks out there that are just fed up with this country and they fed up with the treatment of black people. They're fed up with this fascist regime. They they're they're unemployed, you know what I'm saying. They don't know when they're going back

to work. So I think it's a lot of reasons for white folks to be out there protesting, But I just I just want to know why a lot of white folks are choosing to be involved right now. That's it, all right, Well, let's go to the phone line. Hello, who's this? That's Steve. Steve, what are you calling from? Calling from? Dat? No? How dat Ohio? Yes? I am white, and I just think, you know, I totally agree with all of may And you know, we're all all sick of this, you know, I don't think in my mind

there is no race. We're all you know, You're noted is one, you know. And I'm just sick and tired of all this drama, you know. I mean that man didn't deserve that, you know. And I can't even walk around with my African American you know, brother in all without him feeling some type of way or or you know, feeling, you know, stressed out because you know, a police officer drives by, and I don't think that's right. You know, I protesting a different matter, you know, I just think

it's you know, it's all bs. You know. I can't even speak right now because I'm so hurt over the whole situation, you know. I mean, I understand we should protest, but you know, destroying our property, I'm not agreeing with that, part. But I mean as far as Charlomagne said, yeah, we're all sick of it, you know. And you have a black brother in law, Yes, sir, I do. I mean like that means you got a black wife? Yes? Oh wow? So you you you so you got a bird's eye

view of a black experience. Yes, sir, I mean for the last twenty years, I've been experiencing all of this, and you know, I just I'm just ashamed, man, I'm just ashamed that you know about the actions they chose to make, you know, and you know, I just I'm just not half a brother. I really ain't. Well. Thank you for calling, brother, believe you. Hello, who's this yo? It's up, David. What's your name? David? Hey, David Comona man, good mon. Yeah. Yeah, I'm from Austin, Texas. So I'm sorry.

It's just a long weekend. It was crazy. We had we had tear gays stoning at us. We were a shot whichever bullet too is ridiculous. Why are you out there fighting, young man? Tell us what's showing up as a white man. I'm from a small town from Mississippi, so I know back home, I got like one hundred one hundred and fifty people who can't go out to a big town. You can't go out to the protests, So I'm gonna be the voice of the people back at home. Okay, all right, what's the cause you fight?

To point out? Though? One thing I do want to point out though, that I noticed last night they burnt the tent and the mattress of a homeless man. They're trying to give the peaceful protests a bad name. Well yeah, and that's what I said. I do know it's probably some cointell pro out there's probably some disruptors out there, but I do feel like it's more white people were out there for the right reasons, like yourself, you know, simply because you know, you're tired of seeing black people

get killed in this country. Definitely, it was there was no need for all that type of violence out there. There were people sitting there on their knees, hands up, and they were still shooting tear gas and brother bullets app and there's just no need for this violence. Well, thank you, thank you for your service. Young Caucasian eight hundred one oh five one hit us up. Now we're asking to talk to some of the white people. That's

in the fight with us. All right, that's out there protesting, that's out there protecting, that's out there telling everybody how they feel. Call us up now, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, call me and your opinions to the Breakfast Club tops. Come on eight hundred five five five one morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne the god we all the Breakfast Club. Good morning now if you just joined us, Charlemagne has been trying to highlight our white

allies this morning. That's it, man, you know what I mean. I want to talk to some of the white protesters, the people that we see out there, you know, fighting alongside black folks. I believe in you, especially use skateboarders. I didn't know you white skateboarders were so goddamn gangster, okay. And I know that a lot of people are painting the white folks as agents that are fighting alongside black people.

And I have a theory about that. I think it's the white supremacists worst nightmare to have white people out there actually fighting with black people. That's why they keep pushing this narrative that these white folks are being paid to do this and their agents. I'm sure it's some cointell pro out there. I'm sure some people out there

just that want of disrupt things. But for the most part, I think that it's black people and white people fighting alongside each other because these white people really love black folks. That mean that said, I wish you love black people

the way you love Black culture. That gotta hit different at a time like this, when all your heroes are black, when your favorite athletes are black, when your favorite musicians are black, when the way you dresses is black culture, the way you even talk is black culture, that men gotta hit different. So salute all the white folks out there on the front lines with us, But let's go to the full lines. Hello, who's this, Lindsay? Lindsay? Are

you white? Are you clear? Bay? Black? Lindsay? Morning, good morning. I can smell the star books on. I can smell the star books on our breakfast morning. Hi. Hi, Now why are you out there? Uh this weekend? Um? Well, I'm not part of the protesters, but I do agree that black lives matter. UM, I have many black friends. I think black people are wonderful. I think most of them are better than white people. Um, they truly have good hearts, and I'm tired of seeing what's happening to them.

You know, these police officers out there just you know, taking that upon themselves to judge them and stereotype, and you know, it's got to stop. Um. But what I don't agree with is the writing and the looting. Those people are putting a bad name on themselves as well as black people because they're destroying public property. And you know, I mean, what would George Floyd want. He wouldn't want that.

He wouldn't want people out there destroying things and you know, harming other people and people being scared to go out. He would want them to stick up for his name, but not in that way. I mean, I listen, I don't know what George Floy would want because he's not here to tell us what he would want because he got killed by god damn racist ass coot. But I mean, listen, nobody wants to see the looting, nobody wants to see

the burning down the buildings. But we kind of gotta understand the outrage though we can understand where a mayhem is coming from. Understand I completely understand that. And you know, I mean, if they want to you know, go burn cop cars. That's fine, But I mean that poor black man with his business and then you know, burning his business down. He didn't do anything. I mean, he's one of them, you know. I mean, don't hurt your own kind.

You know, I didn't target the right If you're gonna target something, This is coming from a white woman, y'all. If you're gonna target something, target the right things. Yeah. And speaking of target, I mean they had to adjust their hours and close their stores. But they did say that they stand with us, so that the CEO released a statement in support of the protest against police abuse against African Americans. Well, thank you, Lindsay, Thank you, Lindsay.

Let's go to another line. Hello, who's this this? Candice? Hey, Candice, what are you calling from. I'm from Done South Carolina, Carolina. Okay, I no, I did with them once. I ain't even gonna front. I thought it might have been something no white, Yeah, I am. Okay. Let's talk. What reasons do you have for being involved? First of all, I have three mixed children. I have a year old son that I'm scared to grow up. He's at the age now where he's starting

to find a self. So he's starting to go out with his friends and you know, right around and all that,

and I'm scared for him to leave. And it really makes me mad that every time of the season hashtag black lives matter, they want to change it to all lives matter, which all lives do matter, but right now, so this situation, it is black lives matter, because until white people are scared to go outside or scared to cause the police for anything because they don't know how they're going to act, then white people don't understand how it feels. I understand how they feel because I'm in

that community, you know what I'm saying. I am more around black people than I am white people, So I understand how they feel. And I'm scared for my son to grow up. I'm scared for him to be in a store that's predominantly white and they're looking at him suspicious and he's not doing anything wrong. Where you outside, where you outside the protests, I actually didn't get to make it. I work two jobs, so I wasn't out there physically with them, but my heart is with them.

My heart is really with them, because it's it's ridiculous that we've let it get this far. Absolutely like it could have changed so easily if everybody would just come together. It's just it's sad that it takes a killing to make people want to protest, like we should protest peace all year round anyway, until this stops and the police officers need to be held accountable just like we would absolutely. Well, thank you for calling, and thank you for riding with us, Mama,

We appreciate it. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five. One is the moral to the story? Yeah, the moral of the story is man for all the white people out there fighting alongside black folks, salute to y'all. We appreciate your service, you know what I mean. Drop on the clues bombs for the white folks out there fighting with black people. I appreciate you. I want you to continue to use your privilege to combat prejudice. You know, don't just love our music, don't just love our culture,

love us. And right now, what's happening. This is a white supremacist worst nightmare. And I promise you they're going to keep the narrative going that you know these people are being paid, are you know their agents? And listen, some of them probably are just like some of the black folks probably are, but for the most part, I think it's people out there that are really just fed up with what's happening to black people in this country.

So salute to you Caucajuns. I'm gonna come up for a name with y'all because we need the opposite of Vanilla isis Vanilla isis is mestic terrorists, the white supremacist. We need to We need a name for the the good white folks. Think of one. All right, Now, we got rumors on the way. Yes, let's talk about Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lant Bottoms. Now, she was joined alongside Killer Mike and Ti to address what was happening in the

streets in Atlanta. So we'll give you that update. Also, doctor Dre he was on Young Money Radio and we'll tell you what he had to say about George Vloyd's murder. All right, we'll get into that next. Keeping lock this to Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let me shout out to my mom. Today's my mom's birthday. Happy birthday, Mama, Happy birthday. Sucks. We can't have a

I know some guys who got some like cheap rolexes. Right now, I'm good, I'm good. Bags now, I'm good, Chanelle, coach you saw now, No,

I'm good. Positive, I'm positive. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. It's your time to give back. This is about way to get right, goodness great. I did see them on up in that Rolegs store. I was like, Wow, and THEE store and the Chanelle store. The way the I'm telling you them, skateboards got put extra power on the man. The way them skateboards are able to break class break wood, break windshields, break cars like them. Skateboards are very very strong.

I have a new respectful skateboarder. Skateboarders to me are like the new biker gangs. But the skateboarders are on our side. The biker gangs are usually on the other side and either side of the white supremacists, you know what I'm saying. But the skateboarders seem like they're on our side. So salute to them. I respect y'all. Gangster, that's what they do though. Their whole life. Their whole life is rebelling against copy right, breaking bones for living.

They tough in a real way. You're right. You know. The crazy thing is, you know in New York, New Jersey. Out here, you're not allowed to carry a firearm. It's just not allowed. You cannot have it. You can have it in your house. It's very hard to get a firearm to carry outside, right, So most people have like a little baseball bat or a club. Back in the day, they would have that in their trunk with their back seat just in case of an altercation. But I'm gonna

get me a skateboard, brother, learn how to skateboard. I'm gonna get me a cardio probably crazy this board. If you want to, you're gonna be fighting all goddamn day. Oh my goodness. All right, we got rumors all the way, yes, and keep you updated on the protesters. Also, we'll tell you some of the celebrities who were out and about protesting. And we'll talk about Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottom. She was joined by Killer Mike and Ti and we'll tell

you what was said. All right, we'll get into that when we come back. Keep a lock. This to Breakfast club. Good morning. Tell we all the breakfast club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Killer Mike. It's about Angela Ye fund the breakfast club. Yes, Keiler, Mike and Ti joined Atlanta Mayor Kesha Lance Bottoms and they were talking about basically the rioting that was happening in Atlanta. Now here is what Killer Mike hat to say. If it is your duty not to burn your own house down

for anger with an enemy. It is your duty to fortify your own house so that you may be a house of refuge in times of organization. And now it's the time to plot, plan, strategize, organize, and mobilize. It is time to beat up prosecutors you don't like it the voting booth. It is time to hold mayorial offices accountable. Chiefs and deputy chiefs. Telling you right now, if aliens came down to day and told me, take you, take take me to your leader, I'm taking them to kill them.

Mike that is absolutely one of the leaders. I'm taking them to drop on a clues box and kill the Mike love that. Keisha lance Bottom is also telling people that if you were outside protesting, make sure you go get a coronavirus testau I did think about that. Did we just forget about pandemic because nobody's wearing masks? Like, do we just it's coronavirus? Just we just forget it? Racism and police brutality are the kills for coronaviruses? Who knew? All? Right? Now?

Jaycole was outside and he was marching approach testers in his hometown of Fayetteville, North Carolina. He wasn't taking pictures or anything like that, not doing interviews. He didn't want to distract from the moment, but it was exciting for people to see that j Cole was out there. And that's not the first time he's done something like this.

He also attended protests after the killings of Michael Brown and Eric Garner in fourteen, and he was spotted at a rally in DC organized by Farrakahn commemorating the twentieth anniversary of the Million Man mart So he does the work also while hit the streets with protesters in LA as well, and Insecure Star Kendrick Sampson he was out as well, and he said he did get injured by

Rubbert bullets while he was out protesting all right. In addition, in addition to all of this, Doctor Dre was on Young Money Radio and here's what he told Little Wayne about the murder of George Floyd. My heart is steell aching and it feels like that cop had his knee on all of our necks, meaning black men, and it's like, what can we do? But what do we need to do to make this thing stop? Did you hear that the cop was arrested today. Yeah, I heard that, But

that's not enough at all, not enough. You know, the other three cops are supposed to be arrested, they're supposed to be convicted, and they're supposed to be arrested and convicted the first degree murder, all right, And that's rare for dtor J to even do an interview. So just I do think it is important to hear people speaking up. It is inspiring. And CNN's Don Lemon he has called out a bunch of different celebrities for their lack of visibility during protests. Here's what Don Lemon had to say.

What about Hollywood strangely quiet? I see them on Twitter, I see them all. You know, I'm loving what Don Lemon is doing. I'm loving what this person So why are I don't But they got to do more than that, especially black celebrities and black leaders and white celebrities and rich Hollywood and rich folks. Why aren't they helping these young people get on television or do something? You know, I was home on Friday night, Saturday and n I

think it was sad. I don't remember what night it was, but I was home and I was actually watching that live, and I would like to say that Don Lemon sounded crazy, okay, because first of all, you don't know I was watching that too, you don't know what I was watching that too. And he was like, it just sounded mad, erie because it didn't show him, It was just showing the protests,

and he tried to sound so mad. He was vamping like he was actually literally trying to kill time, and they was playing b role and they probably was just telling them to talk. Just sounded crazy exactly because first of all, you don't you don't know what folks are doing. And when you call the folks out, ask ask yourself, what are you doing? Don saying that from the comfort of his TV show. If you're gonna call folks out like that, you go on the front lines. I have

mentioned why do we care? What? Why do we care what celebrities are doing? America's obsession, which celebrity is exactly why we have a reality star as president. What you're calling out Hollywood for I call out the politicians, the elected officials. Not no damn Hollywood. Who cared what Ellen and Oprah got to say at a time like this, And you know, and and like you said, earlier. We

don't know what people are doing. You don't know if people are more Okay, I'm just gonna handle my business behind the scenes and not make it public what it is that I am. Or they might be plotting in doing something right now that we don't even know about. That we'll find out about later. But you know, I can't call it that. But that's the least of my concerns right now. Yes, and Don Lemon called out people that are doing the work, like Colin Kaepernick already was

establishing a fund to bail protesters out. You see him the governor. The governor yesterday said he was on the phone with jay Z. You know what I mean. And now Keith Ellison is on the case, like you don't know what people are doing behind the scenes for you to be calling folks out. But once again, if you're gonna call people out, make sure you on the front lines and not from the not doing that from the comfort of your TV show, Don Lemmon, come on now well.

Jay Z also released a statement after our very earnest conversation, thank you to Governor Wallas for doing what's right and calling in Attorney General Keith Ellison to take over the George Floyd case. Earlier today, Governor Wallas mentioned having a human conversation with me, a dad and a black man in pain. Yes, I am human, father and a black

man in pain, and I am not the only one. Now, I, along with an entire country in pain, call upon A g Ellison to do the right thing and prosecute all those responsible for the murder of George Floyd to the fullest extent of the law. This is just a first step. I am more determined to fight for justice than any fight my would be a pressures may have I prevail on every politician, prosecutor, and officer in the country to

have the courage to do what is right. Dropping the clues bons behold man, you know what those one other thing Don Limit did. He called folks out and told them to stop tweeting, you know, stop just being on social media and told him her speak. But then he gave Beyonce a credit speaking on social media. Don was just talking. He was just talking. It was like, you got this expo is like I'm just gonna talk exactly, just vamping. All right. Well I'm Angela Yee and that

is your rumor report. All right, thank you, Miss yee. Now when we come back Donkey today, who are you giving that donkey too? Donkey today is going to Mayor Build de Blasio. He really needs to come to the front of the congregation because he does not know how to de escalate a situation. We'll talk about it, all right, We'll get into that next keeping lot. This to breakfast club. Good morning. Let's don't be a dusty because right now

you want it's time for Donkey of the day. So if we ever feel I need to be a dunk man the head sheet I had become Donkey of the day. The Breakfast Club bitches. Donkey today from Monday, June first goes to New York City Mayor Build de Blasio. Now, I saw a lot of things that disturbed my soul this weekend. I saw a lot of things that gave me panic attacks. I saw a lot of things that kept me from sleeping at night. But there was one video that disturbed me a lot, disturbed me a lot

more than the others I saw. And I'm sure you saw the video of a pair of NYPD SUVs driving into a crowd during one of this weekend's protested George Floyd's death. I think this was in Brooklyn. If I'm not mistaken, Let's let's say the report we took a dramatic turn. By night. There reports of demonstrations happening all over the city, but the bulk of the activity was here in Brooklyn as well as Manhattan, at one point

shutting down the Manhattan Bridge. A video has also surf is showing two NYPD vehicles pushing into a crowd of demonstrators, and officials are saying that those vehicles were being struck by rocks as well as other objects. Thankfully, nobody was seriously hurt. But when I showed my wife that video, like she literally cried, and it baffles my mind. At a time like this, police officers wouldn't be doing everything in their power to improve relationships with the people, Like

now was not the time. The show is that you really don't give a damn, Like you know, I don't even know why police officers still have decreed the protecting to serve. Salute to all the good cops out there, But I don't see how you can be a good cop in a corrupt system. I would really like to know, seriously, and let me explain. It's simple, right, They always say, one bad apple spoils a bunch. We've always heard that expression.

Well have you ever heard the opposite? Can I take a good apple, put it in a bunch of rotten apples and make those rotten apples turn good? I've never seen it. If it's possible, I'll shut the f up forever on this topic. But I don't think I'm wrong. See, the system is so corrupt and as the great AOC said Alexandria Carte. She tweeted this last week in regards

to the killing of George Floyd. She said, I'll just say it, a lot of politicians are scared of the political power of the police, and that's why charges to hold them accountable for flagrant killings don't happen. That in itself is a scary problem. We shouldn't be intimidated out of holding people accountable for murder. AOC is absolutely right, but politicians shouldn't be scared to hold police accountable for anything.

But that is exactly what mad Bill Deblasio did this past weekend when he failed to hold those officers accountable for drying through that crowd. Listen to what may build the Bladio had to say in regard to that situation, I saw some moments yesterday that were disturbing in terms of the way police handled things, and that need to be done better. We many of us have seen the video involving two NYPD vehicles and a crowd of protesters.

I didn't like what I saw one bit, and clearly we need to do a full investigation and look at the actions of those officers and see what was done and why it was done, and what could be done differently. But I also want to emphasize that situation was created by a group of protesters blocking and surrounding a police vehicle, a tactic that we had seen before in the last few days, a tactic that can be very, very dangerous

to everyone involved. And we've seen direct attacks on police officers, including in their vehicles, and we need a full and impartial investigation. But we also need to be clear about the context, and that was a situation that had to be resolved. It could not stay that way. But we need to understand more about it, and if there's discipline that needs to be meeted out will be Mayor Bill de Blasio is shook to death of police leaders and

unions they own him. Do you remember when Edward D. Mullen is the president of the Sergeant's Benevolent Association, tweeted in February that members of the NYPD were declaring war on the BLASIL, and last August the union declared it had no confidence in the BLASIL. And my girl AOC once again. You know, she came through with some truth. You know, because after the Blasio said what he said, AOC replied on Twitter that he was making excuses for

the NYPD. AOC tweeted, as Mayor, this police department is under your leadership. This moment demands leadership and accountability from each of us. Defending and making excuses for NYPD running SUVs into crowds was wrong. Make it right, de escalate de Blasio. You just made folks hate cops and hate the system even more. Those cops who did that should have been fired or at the least suspended. Okay something,

don't make it seem like that was okay. Meanwhile, this is why we are at the point in our society we should just shut the f up and let black women lead, all right. Keisha Land's Bottoms, Mayor of Atlanta. This weekend, right this weekend, two Atlanta police officers. I know you probably saw this video. Two Atlanta police officers were captured on video forcibly pulling a pair of college students out of their car, hazing them, placing them under

arrest during protest. These kids were doing nothing. Guess what happened to those two police officers. They got fired straight like that. Mayor Bottoms gave U speech about it. Let's hear it, Chief Shield and I who made the determination that two of the officers involved in the incident last night will be terminated immediately. The other three officers are right now on deckk's duty, pending further determination of what, if any appropriate action disclinary actions should be taken against them.

The release of that body can footage and the corres funding police report should be available to the media immediately. Simple cops do something wrong, Cops get fired. That's how you repair relationships between the community and the police. That's how you change your system. Just get rid of the bad apples in that system. Hold cops accountable. That's all we want, and this is why black women make the best leaders. Okay, she took action immediately, something that build

de Blasio clearly doesn't have the needs to do. Please let Remy mad give Mayor Bill de Blasio the biggest he ha he ha he haa you stupid mother, Are you dumb? That's also why Kesha Land's Bottoms is being mentioned on the shortlist for being Vice President of the United States of America. That'd be a great position for her, even though with a name like Mayor Bottoms, she's perfect to be the mayor of Atlanta. Stop it all right, Well,

thank you for that donkey of the day. Now when we come back, Corey Minor Smith will be joining us telling people who she's an attorney. She has a book called Driven, and she is a huge mental health advocate, man. And I know that right now, especially after the past week, especially after this weekend, a lot of us are emotionally drained. You know, a lot of us, you know, are just trying to keep our keep our mental health in order.

And I think that is very important. And um, you know, she just has a lot of great ideas and a lot of a lot of good tips for you to keep your your mental health in order. Man. So I think that this is a great conversation. The Mental Health Awareness Month was last month, but mental health awareness, you know, for me is a year round thing. So I think a lot of people could actually use her conversation this morning,

could actually benefit from hearing that conversation this morning. All right, we'll get into that next keeping locked this to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Voting. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest on the line right now, Attorney Corey Minor Smith. She has a new book out called Driven. It's a memoir, but it's a self motivational memoir. What is it about. Yes, it's called hashtag Driven, and

it is a motivational memoir. But I use it as a resource for families and friends that have a loved one living with severe mental illness. A lot of times people don't know what resources are available in the community. Many times, a lot of people who are suffering with a severe mental illness are left alone, dismissed by family and friends because they don't know what to do to help that person. So I use my life story to help individuals who are in a position that I was

in and dealing with my mother who suffers from schizophrenia. Wow, what do you think it would take to completely eradicate stigmas of mental illness in the Black community. Well, first of all, we need to recognize the stereotypes that we associate with mental illness. Many times, perhaps it's the people that are untreated, who are in psychotic states that we

associate with the term mental illness. And therefore, anybody that's dealing with depression or anxiety or just mild symptoms don't want to be associated with those images, and therefore the stigma prevents us from getting therapy, prevents us from seeking treatment that is readily available. And in order to eradicate it, we have to acknowledge that it is present, it's real, it doesn't discriminate with anyone, regardless of your gender, your race,

your socio economic status. So it's important for us to acknowledge it, to accept it, to love our loved ones through the symptoms that they exhibit, and then ultimately advocate by talking about it using your platform, which I appreciate you all doing today. This is National Mental Health Awareness Month, July is Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, and this is a three sixty five global issues, So all throughout the year,

we need to continue to talk about it. And then take action through legislation, seeking research and funding that can help us to know about other medications that may help individuals who are experiencing severe mental illness. I wanted to ask you a question about I get several ask ye.

That's the advice segment that I have, And several people have emailed me and they're in relationships with people who they feel are suffering from mental illness, but the person doesn't want to seek professional help, and they don't know what they should do. Should they stay in the relationship? What are some options available If you are in a relationship with somebody who you feel like, Okay, they do need to get professional help, but they're not willing to

do that, what would you advise? Yeah, I would advise the person who is asking that question to seek for him or herself, for example, having consultation with organizations like NAMI. They can help you to establish effective tools and continue in the relationship with that person, or understanding that you may not be able to continue the relationship with that person, ultimately being able to set boundaries and dependent on what the mental illness is, you have to be aware of

the potential symptoms that that person can exhibit. Especially if you're dealing with severe mental illness like schizophrenia and bipolar. Those types of severe mental illness is less untreated, can be dangerous, and you wouldn't want to put yourself in that position. What is the triple A strategy to destigmatizing mental illness? Actually something that just went over, but acknowledging, accepting, and advocating. A lot of us want to ignore or

deny symptoms. For example, if we're in that relationship you know, and the person is exhibiting things, don't don't ignore that. You have to be cognizant and aware of potential symptoms and knowing that you are not putting yourself at harm. Acknowledging also includes learning more about illnesses so that you can help your loved one to cope, to build up the tools necessary to have the highest quality of life, and then acknowledging in the sense of knowing about the

resources that are available in the community. The second part is accepting, accepting that this person is mentally ill. Your loved one or friends may never be the way he or she was before exhibiting The first signs of severe mental illness, For example, with schizophrenia is described in like threes in thirds. One third of people who experience schisophrenia may have one about with symptoms related to schizophrenia and

never have reoccurring symptoms. The second third of individuals like my mother, may be in an out of mental institutions for the rest of their lives, on and off of the medication because they believe at some point that they don't need it. They get off of it, left untreated, their symptoms become very severe. And then there are those that we may see on the street on any given day in any city USA, who are homeless, who are

exhibiting severe signs of mental illness. They're left untreated, they're not connected with any services in the community, and they end up dying, whether it's by suicide or someone on

the streets killing them. And that who also talk about sorry yes, yes, such as you chalmagn you know with your book and also the guests that you all have had on here using your platform to openly talk about it, creating the space necessary for people to feel free to talk about it and share the symptoms, and understanding that there are services are available and we cannot afford to be ashamed of these services. In using the services, that

are available. So the three US point strategy is the acknowledging, accepting, and advocacy. One thing you also discuss is undesirable circumstances. And you've said, don't allow undesirable circumstances to be excuses for you to fail, but allow them to be reasons for you to excel. So let's talk about what undesirable circumstances are in your book and how that has you driven Yes, thank you. I had a teacher in high school named Norma Washington, and she told me I had

what she called undesirable circumstances. At that time in high school, I had been the fourteen school, lived in three states in eight different households. By the time I was fourteen, that's when my mother started to show signs of severe mental illness. And by the time I was fifteen, she left me in Texas and returned to Ohio. And by the time I was sixteen, my mother had attacked me and I was in the court system where at that

time my grandmother, my paternal grandmother, took me in. And so just those circumstances alone, in addition to other things that I've experienced, have been attributed some to my mother's illness, just to the factors that a lot of people in the African American community face, such as poverty, transient lifestyles,

and things of that nature. So with that, but to word phrase, I turned it into my life's model, which is not to allow undesirable circumstances like some of the ones that I've experienced, to be excuses for you not to do things, not to pursue goals and objectives, not to pursue a better quality of life because of those undesirable circumstance, but to use them to excel in your life. All Right, we got more with Attorney Corey mindus Smith. When we come back, don't move. It's the breakfast club.

Good morning, pointing. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Shalomain the guy. We are the breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Attorney Corey minus Smith Chalomagne. You know, I love how you talk about, you know, your loved ones with mental illness, your mom, because you know, I've seen so many people affected by a grandmother or a mother who has all time as a dementia and doesn't remember

them anymore. How do you handle having loved ones with mental illness and you staying mentally saying when something like that happens. That's a very good question, because it's a

day by day process. You have to create boundaries and knowing what you can and cannot do for your loved one, knowing when it's necessary to take a step back, and that's when it's important to have those resources that are available in the community, because you can have case workers that are able to directly connect with your loved one rather than you. And my case, I'm my mother's only child, so many times I'm the focus of her psychotic states.

I'm blamed for things a lot, but my love for my mom overshadows all of that, and I want to be there for as much as I can, so I rely on community resources, and I suggest that people connect with services like NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, their local chapters in the community, and they can connect your loved one with services. Right now, there are people who are quarantined also and going through a lot of

different things with the people who they love. What advice do you give people right now and quarantine who are going through difficult circumstances and how to come through it on the other side, even stronger. Absolutely, I suggest using this time. I'm using this time just to be grateful. This has given us a lot of time to be quiet and be still and understanding our thoughts how we

want to come out of this. But ultimately, if someone is feeling like they just can't handle it, you know they feel too much distress, I suggest as doing a mental health assessment and understanding what tools and resources may

be available to help you with those things. For example, there's an organization called Mental Health America, and right now you can go online and do a mental health assessment, especially since you can't necessarily get to in person appointment with your medical doctor or if you do see a counselor, it's great that there are telehealth services available where you

can talk over the phone with a counselor. NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, has peer to peer support as well as family to family support, and those services are available on zoom Calls online, and they have created a confidential space so that those who want to participate in those programs can. You know you broke the book down in the five parts to faith, motivation, determination, preparation, and action or roll did each of those play in

your life. Faith definitely played a part in it. You know, while my family, my mother, my father may not have always gone to church, my father required me to go to church when I lived with him, and it ultimately helped in those rough teenage years right where I was hanging out with the crowd that we did some activities that weren't necessarily good, you know, jumping girls unfortunately, trying to sell drugs, just hanging out in the streets and

those types of things. But ultimately, my faith and those who pray for me when I didn't know those to pray for myself help me to excel through those undesirable circumstances Angela that you asked about, and ultimately leading me to wanting to do more. And that's where the motivation came in. You know, you may not always have the inner drive to get you to your next goal, but other people in your circle, they can be instrumental in helping you to have the motivation or give you motivation

to come out of your circumstances. The determination I came up with that listening to Shannon Shark's NFL speech. He talked about having a five alarm fire and I identify with that so much because I never knew what drove me to want to accomplish things in my life, but ultimately it was the undesive of circumstances that I wanted to get away from. So that's where the determination piece comes from. Preparation is being prepared for the things that

you want in your life. Many times we think we can just connect with a person of same or celebrity and they can just automatically get us to where we want to be. But if you're not prepared to be where you want to be, you won't get there. And then as far as action, the fifth part of it. You can daydream, think about doodle on paper all day long, but if you don't take action to get where you want to go, you'll never make it to reaching those goals that you set for yourself. So those are my

five principles that break down the book hashtag driven. I was going to say, the book is a very useful and helpful tool for people, and I think it will definitely inspire people to want to make sure they check on their mental health even more. Yes, yes, And I just want to say, well more thing, You're right, it is okay to not be okay, and I know now it's a difficult time for people worried about finances, worried about family members, just worried about going outside in general.

And it is okay to have those concerns and worries and to not be okay. But how do you know when it's to the point where it is something that you have to take action and take control of. If you're losing fleet, if you're not eating the way you're used to eating, if you're not connecting and engaging people. I know we can't personally or in person, but just not wanting to talk to anybody on the phone. Those are some top signs that things may not be right for you at this time, and maybe you need to

consider talking to someone to talk through that. It's important to just understand there's no reason to be ashamed of reaching out for help, even if you talk to a friend. You know, I relied on my best friend Kim a lot, but I found that I could not keep putting all of that on her. So I have no problem, you know,

identifying that I go to counseling. There's no way I could get through all of the issues and concerns that I have, especially in trying to be there for my mother without taking some time for myself and understanding the boundaries that I need to create and to use the services that are available rather than putting it all on myself to me forward.

It's the Breakfast Club, the Breakfast Club. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the room as let's talk the dream. This is the rumor report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Yes that we went on Twitter to address the damage that he's seen being done

in the city of Atlanta. He said, remember this, he said. First, he said, dear people, if you're not from Atlanta, don't come here and please go home. I own things in the city. A lot of blacks owned things in the city from Bankhead to Buckhead. Do not destroy property that in negainst the decades of work. My children will not be set back by you. And then when he got backlash from that, he responded saying, remember this, when it's hard to get a loan being black too, When a

black business is burned down, it usually never returns. Three. They will still owe the loan four credit to start again as rejected. Five we have to wait a hold generation to restart. These are some facts, are y'all that simple? All I talk about is black Ish. All I do is Blackish. Yo. I can't say, don't burn down my home. Yeah, I'm sorry if you feel that's cool. I've been in the streets. I've been part of illegal arrest and unrest.

Here's what you want. Here what you want. So people were giving him a lot of backlash for talking about the protesters in the city. Well, he didn't say don't protest. He just said, don't burn down our own stuff, our own unity. You know, like he said, there's a lot of black businesses out there that if they burned down, they probably will never be able to get back up. So I understand what he was saying. Yeah, I mean, he's right, And you know, nobody is wrong when they

tell you not to tear up your own community. But you know, once that mayhem and rage starts, you can't control it. You just hope that you don't. They don't tell up their own stuff, right, you don't you see a police priest in blowing up. Okay, you get it. You see police cars blowing up, Okay, you get it. But you know, don't go to the black owned businesses. Now, Twitter is also upset at LL cool J, and they

don't understand why he would question. He put out a tweet imagine how people are raising by racial children feel right now? This is crazy. So people were not understanding why he decided to come to Twitter with that thought, and there was some backlash for that. The backlash was so strong that he actually went on Instagram Live to try to clarify what he meant. Here's what he said. It give me that just be act like a moral or act like an idiot just for you to like me,

kiss my ass. I ain't doing that either. I'm not going to tell lies on Twitter or tell or act like I don't have questions about things just to please you. I don't care if you like damn not, because there are a lot of like minded people who do and who get it, and that's who I care about. You know, I don't like seeing ll not cool like. It can't just be lll J. It's got to be LLL cool J at all times. On that video, he lost his cool.

LLL is an icon. You know what I'm saying. LL always seems to be in control and every situation, even when you hear about people breaking in his house, he's in control, beating the person up, calling the police. It seems like he wasn't in control in that video. I don't like cl I don't like seeing LL without the cool. Yeah. I'm not even still sure what he meant by that statement at that time, but all right now, Janelle, Yeah, he was talking about by racial He was saying, you're

on both sides of defense. I guess that would that's what he was saying. But LL always a person that stood up for our community. LL is always the person that made show. He took care of kids in our community. So you know, like like May said, I don't you know LL wilding out? Like you know, LLL is too cool for that. He just basically was saying that, you know, how do you have that conversation? And I'm mixed household?

If you got you know, if you're a white mom with black kids, that's gotta be a difficult conversation with a white husband. It's just gotta be a difficult conversation. I don't know if that's the conversation you should be having now. But I get get what he was saying. It just gotta be on the side of right. It's not about that for white people. If you have an issue with what happened, then you're on the side of right. And so I don't think you know, I don't know.

It was just a weird statement to me. But I mean, I'm by racial and I was confused, but he was just insane. I just I couldn't imagine, you know, being in that situation, being a parent in that situation. People got to stop breaking down what people say, so to the to the bonom like like. But he had an opinion on something and had a thought. And just because he had a thought doesn't mean he's not the cause. He's not for the people people take these things. Certain,

certain certain thoughts got to be fleshed out. Though it was just confusing to me. I just didn't understand it. I wasn't like your cancel, but I just really didn't understand it. That's all got to be fleshed out, that's all. You can't just tweet things out randomly like that in the middle of the night. What do by racial can't feel what's out of nowhere with no context? All right, Yeah, The NFL released the statement, the NFL family is greatly

saddened by the tragic events across our country. The protesters reactions to these incidents reflect the pain, anger, and frustration

that so many of us feel. Our deepest condolences go out to the family and mister George Floyd, and to those who have lost loved ones, including the families of miss Brianna Taylor and Louisville and mister modd Arbury, the cousin of Tracy Walker of the Detroit Lions, and they went on to talk about the systemic issues with our players, clubs, and partners and continuing the important work to address those issues.

The NFL sent this out now. Jamil Hill tweeted out, you gotta be fing kidding me, and she's the NFL tweeting about what happened with George Floyd is the equivalent of when the CIA recognizes dark doctor Martin Luther King Junior's birthday, loved him so much, y'all helped to kill him. Get out of here with the bs. And Ava Dubernat said, the accuracy, the precision, and she said to the NFL Shame on you. This is beyond hollow and disingenuous. This

is a lie. Your actions show who you are. You've done nothing but the exact opposite of what you describe here. Keep mister Floyd's name out of your mouth. Shame on you and the consultants of this travesty of an organization. Yeah, I mean, that was the whole point of Colin Kaepernick taking a knee, right, you know, And I mean, by the way, America, Colin showed you the most peaceful, respectful way to protests, and y'all didn't like a respect that either.

So now sinks the things he was kneeling for continue to happen. The only language they understand is revolt, you know. So yeah, yeah, all right, and yeah absolutely. Faith Stevans was arrested also for allegedly attacking Stevie J. According to new reports, the police were called to their home in la and upon their arrival they saw that STEVIEJ had marked and scratches on his face. They said that two of them got into a very ugly screaming match, and

they don't know what it was about. She was arrested for domestic violence and was released on bond. Hours later. All right. In addition to that, Kylie Jenner and Chris Jenner are allegedly freaking out, and that's because Forbes is saying that she lied about being a billionaire. They actually put out an article. It was called inside Kylie Jenner's Web of Lies and why she's no longer a billionaire according to Forbes. They said, you'll remember, they said she's

not worth as much in May of twenty twenty. So they're saying in January, she sold fifty one percent of Kylie Cosmetics to the company Cody, which is a huge beauty company, for six hundred million dollars. That would have put a value on the branded around one point two billion dollars because Cody is publicly traded, though those fining

and to documents and records must be disclosed. And what they are saying is the deal was not that much, and revenues over a twelve month period before the deal was one hundred and seventy seven million dollars, which was far lower than the published estimates at the time. And then the piece they're also saying that they feel like some of those documents that she gave them was forged. So Kylie Jenner has responded as she woke up and just acted like the whole thing was just lies, And

she said, what am I even waking up to? I thought this was a reputable site. All I see are a number of inaccurate statements and unproven assumptions. I've never asked for any title or tried to lie my way there ever period, even creating tax returns that were likely fords. That's your proof, So you just thought they were forged. So maybe she's not a billionaire. I guess we'll see. It doesn't matter right now. Rich people problems. It doesn't matter right now. Though. I wasted my time reading that

article this weekend, and it was so dumb. You know why. You know why because at the end of the article it says it says she's not worth over a billion, she's worth a little under nine hundred million. No, who cares? Okay, forty plus a million people unemployed, largest unemployment, racings, the depression, people looting their asses off, and y'all want me to care that a person's not a billionaire but they're worth a little under nine hundred million. That was worth a

whole article. Let's stop, man. That was what was wrong. With us, yo, stupid stupid storming. All right, well I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, miss Yee. All right now, when we come back to People's Choice Mix, get your request and let me know what you want to hear at DJ Envy. I'm gonna kick the mix off with this Tianna Taylor new record.
