I was donkey up to today's time.
Damn he hogged.
It's time for donkey.
I ain't trying to beat donkey today no more. They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm not making new people do these days.
Called donkey of the day, and it really caught me off guard. Damn Charlamagne, who got the donkey out of the day today? Well, jess hilarious donkey today for Monday, May thirtieth goes to the organizers of a Greenville, South Carolina June Tief event. Salute to the eight six four all my upstate South Carolina brethren. What's happening dropping the clues bombs for them? Okay, now we know what June
teenth is, right? In American Black holidays celebrated on June nineteenth to commemorate the emancipation of enslaved people in America.
Well, in Greenville, for.
Whatever reason, they decided to use white models to promote the holiday marking the emancipation of black slaves. You heard me right, They decided to use white models to promote the holiday marking the emancipation of black slaves.
Now, iaw this, I thought it was fake.
I thought it was one of those things somebody created and put online just to get a reaction out of people.
But lo and.
Behold, I was wrong. Let's go to WCNC Charlotte for the report police.
Because we are seeing backlash on social media tonight. As marketing material for a Juneteenth celebration in the Carolinas, well, this is a picture of a Juneteenth banner in Greenville, South Carolina, circulating online. It is drawing some ire and it shows, as you can see here, a white couple advertising this upcoming Juneteenth celebration. The lead organizer says that they were trying to portray how everyone is welcomed to
join in Juneteenth celebrations. That said organizers are apologizing for the execution of that message.
Do we understand that it's a very sensitive subject, especially in the African American community, and we failed at making sure that we completely centered African Americans at the center of our marketing, of all of our marketing.
Organizers apt apologizing say that they plan to change the banners to feature now just the Juneteenth and the Pan African flags.
You know, you never see black people blackwashing white culture, and a few times you do see black people being given inclusion in something white, you get reactions like, you know, a highly got for the little mermaid? You know, and I have no idea. You know, why we think we need white people is to face the Juneteenth as much backlash as we give Republican legislators for trying to retail American history and for creating laws to keep real discussions of race out of.
Schools and banning books about race.
I but trying to hide the truth about this country, especially in regards, you know, to anything to do with black people. Why as a black person would you ever want or think to gentrify June teenth?
Are you doing this so Starbucks gives us our own specialty drink?
Do you want a caramel blackachino for June teenth?
What's that thing you'd be drinking? Envy? Do it?
Deliminade? No macado, machiato machiato? You want to sweet potato mai? You want to sweep potato machiato? Do you think those flavors can only be obtained by including mayonnaise on the June teenth menu?
Oh?
I know what it is. You want Whole.
Foods to have a June teen special? You want organic chicken and seedless organic Guatermelon on sale. You think those things can only happen if white people are involved. This is just like when they took the Five Heart Beats off the cover of that album because the label thought it would help sell better with white people on the cover, which was actually a thing.
They used to always do this in music.
Okay, it's likely, yeah, back in the day, it'd be black artists, but it'd be white people on the cover. It's like Brad Pitt playing the Mexican of Tom Cruise playing the last Samurai. Okay, now, the co found depeat lee that the last thing we want to do is exclude people like they did for us, which is true, but you don't have to exclusively invite the people that actually did us wrong.
Right.
This is the celebration of our people being free, all right. That's like getting released from jail and inviting the cop and judge. That's since you away to your welcome home party. Okay, you know what, I don't even know why I'm trying to explain this. My good sister of man, Deciell's had some thoughts about this, and she summed it up quite nicely.
Let's listen, you're black people.
June teenth, is our day. You don't have to feel any kind of way about white people not being included in Juneteenth because they are included in Juneteenth as the descendants of enslavers. But June teen should be about unity. Why this country is not about unity? Juneteenth is an American holiday. If you're not going to teach true history in American schools, then don't come trying to take black
holidays and call them American holidays. The point is is that black folks can be all right celebrating a day for black folks without feeling like we have to include other folks. I don't see Christians spinning dradles for hanka ads.
But hey, points you're made.
Please give the organizers of June teenth in Greenville the sweet sounds of Hamilton's please.
Oh no, you are the dog the day, all right.
This whole story got me thinking, why is there not a sweet potato macarena?
What's it going? Oh my god?
Because you don't even know what it is. Why is there not a sweet potato machado? Wouldn't that be fire?
You don't have you ever had a machiato? No?
Okay, Like I just feel like a warm, sweet potato back flavor beverage from Starbucks would be amazing.
Starbucks is not gonna be sweet enough. You know, they stingy on the sugar.
We got a Duncan, Oh, Duncan, dunk the they capitalized on the sugar. Now, Duncan has been a fantastic sponsor of the Breakfast Breakfast Club. We might need to do that for June teens Breakfast Club. Sweet potato hot chocolate. That would be potato something, And then maybe y'all can stop buying so much Starbucks.
That's not that's not Why would you lie?
But you know, you know, and they charge you if you say if you go to Starbucks and say no ice, you know they charge you.
Extra for that, like because they charged you actually because.
He means you want more juice lemonade on y'all like this, y'all, like I'm Duncan do on this person myself.
Duncan the break gonna come up with a sweet potato themed beverage for June.
Let's do it all.
Right and shout to b E T will see you guys tomorrow. Peace, you can sweet potatoes everybody else, Let's open up the phone lines. Let's continue on. Yes, Doctor Umar was a little upset.
Oh yeah, he was upset. He was a litt upset at you what. He was upset about a few things. He posted this, He said, dear assisted just hilarious.
Misrepresented my words on your recent breakfast club conversation with brothers.
Should make more.
Based on reports I received, I criticized the possibility of the new movie showcasing snow bunny hopping to our black children. Having not yet viewed the movie myself, I was in no position to tell others not to support it. Nothing but respect for you, sinster, but please try not to misquote your brother going forward appreciatively?
Did you miss quotehim on I didn't know. I didn't. I don't think it was a misquote, and it wasn't a miss quote. I don't be misquoting people. And then whom I said this over the weekend, what are you saying?
Can somebody help me understand this new Spider cartoon. I don't follow the cartool Spider Man across the universe, Spider Man across the universe, and he's bundy hopping in the damn trailer I saw on YouTube. How the hell you gonna have a black super hero cartoon for our children like and he's lusting in, thirsting over the skim milk in the damn trailer. This is insane. How you gonna have a cartoon bunny hopping over the white girl in the cartoon? Lord have mercy? And then what is it
Little mermaid? They said, little Mermaid is swimming in the milk. She is bunny hop into Little Mermaid got a snow puppy. Insane, Brothers and sisters. We can't even have a cartoon with black on black love.
It's getting out of control.
I could confirm there was a snow puppy in Little Murdyuppy.
Let's open up to fulleuse. What is the questions?
Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. Do you agree with doctor lamar Onto?
Something is this is a conspiracy that they can't even show black love and cartoons and in fictional fantasy stories.

Eight hundred five eight five one oh five to one.
