Fathers Day Special

You know. I always think at their age, nobody's ready because but I don't even know, like if you're ever really ready. That's that's the thing. Right when I had my son, I was two twenty two, I was much younger. I was eighteen. Yeah, so he beat you well, and you know, and so I am. I would love for him to follow a more traditional route, traditional of having his career completely off actually happen. Well, it's traditionally what we want, Okay, but I'm saying, what is the likelihood

that actually happened. Well, I'm just saying that's what we try to encourage. Like every family tells the young people, wait until you get your career together. You traveled you you know, you see the world, you have multiple experiences, and then you have children. We all I'm not saying they do. I'm just talking about what I would like to have happened for him, you know that he would be in a different situation, and also for the mom,

who I also love very much. And you know, I wish that that was more of their situation because I always feel like when we're young and we're in our twenties, we really should be enjoying life because you know, having children it's hard, Like there's no joke. It's a life changing thing. I think in theory what you're saying is like beautiful. What I think in reality when men have babies, I don't know what. I've never been a woman, so I can't speak for women, so I've never gonna try to.

But I know when I have my son at two years old, it gave me a sense of purpose. It gave me a sense of motivation. It made me say, Okay, I gotta do things a lot different. I've got to be very much more intentional. I can't really play around. And it gives you to motivation to do more and be better and be more adult. Like you know, so I hear the whole thing about all we want to be a career, but that that's a traditional thing for families.

And I think that's a well to do ideology. But ideology maybe, but I don't ever think it was because most men, even in families where they have money or they come from you know, you know, whatever, the pedigree is the right mix. Um still, the kids pop up pregnant and you just gotta do what you have to do. And I get it, you know. I'm just saying that.

I think every family, and particularly moms, because we know the struggles of having to like you, you don't get to separate with your child at all, and we know it. So it's like when we see um, you know, younger people having kids in it, it sort of takes you back to a time when it was a real struggle and I feel like damn. But at the same time, my son is a provider. He always has been. He's not the type of person that will turn his back or you know, or not be available to his child

because he does it for his whole family. I'm thinking, Sharon, now this is Sharon is uh what, I don't know. She was like almost sixty or something like that. She's a woman who is mature, my sister, and for some reason, my son still buys her food. I have no idea like why he's feeding her, and but he does it. And you know he's a man, Yes, I mean he's like that's so, you know, So listen, I think, I think, congratulations to you relations Tweka. I think Tweek is gonna

be a good father. And it's a girl. It's a girl. I have a little girl that you can spoil you like you know, and you know about the spoiling part. Nobody knows about. Listen to me. You say that, and I remember the first time I see my grandson. He just he's adorable little boy. And every time I get the chance about him something and I want to spoil him and hold him. They moved to Connecticut, so it's a lot harder for me to see him as I want to before. They should go visit him every other day.

So it's different when you become Listen, Casan. Cassan has very good parents, both his mother and his father, Cindy and not San your son and Cassan's mom. They are very good parents. So one thing I will say is that you see the transition again, like generationally, you see the transition of men like yourself, mothers like me, because we've dealt with the crack era, right, So what happened was there was a pocket of like lost kids because the parents was all messed up and the kids got

all that stuff. And now that you kind of have that cleared up a little bit, you see these younger people who are having children, especially since they're not eighteen and nineteen like it was, you know, the fifteen and fourteen, because that's how young some of my sister and you know, my friends they were that age when they had their children because again their parents were out whatever was going on, and they end up getting pregnant, and so you know,

you have, you know, you have basically a situation where now with these twentiesomething in rolls a lot of them, they're starting to settle down a little bit more and take care of their children. And then on top of that, their grandparents like you, you know, like your your your what do I say, excuse me, let me go back so we don't get that messed up, Okay, like Cassan's grandmother who are really involved and trying to help provide

some level of guardrails. I don't know where this mindset came from that we don't have to do that, like, oh, you know, it's not on me. I don't have to help take kid to kids. That doesn't actually work. And that's why I'm sticking with grandma. I'm sticking with grandmother. I know, yeah, Grandma's cue. Well, you know, you don't look like the traditional brand. I think that's what it is.

I think people have evolved and try to change the name because more it's more culturally fitting, right, because the grandmothers, our grandmothers didn't look like you. You know what I'm saying. Nobody said this is my grandma. So it's a different ideology and different concepts that they want to show the evolution of it. But I guess you want to be you want to be just a traditional grandma. Listen. I love Grandma, I love g G, I love me Ma, I love all of those things. But I think that

there is something to be said, you know. And I try to be reflective and as I sit and think about the breakdown of our communities, because damn it, there is a breakdown. We are in the midst of a internal and external war, and I'm trying to as a reflective individual who does look different, and I try to do that in every area of my life and my career.

Everything I do is to show that you can be fly, you can you know, look good, be up with the trend, have your own style, do all that you want to do, and still be actively engaged in fighting for your community, Be a responsible individual, be somebody that's working on your

spiritual healing and all of that. And that's why I'm sticking with Grandma, because I feel like there's a lot of glammy's and all of those beautiful names, but there is also a space for us to restore what grandmothers, grandma, regular grandma, what that looks like. And so I want to know what people out there think, like, do folks in the world think I'm being extra or do you all agree and understand why Grandma needs so much? You know?

Teslin wrote on my page the other day when I announced that I'm about to be a grandma, she was talking about the word grant and how important just grant in and of itself is and for me, that's a legacy piece. So I'm speaking with Grandma. I'm a I love. But the thing is, it's still the same thing because the G is just the abbreviation for so it's still traditional. It's it's just my little, my little flavor that I like that, you know what, I just feel like I want.

But I don't listen. I'm not trying to say anybody who doesn't it's wrong. I'm just saying what I'm doing. You know what I'm saying. Everybody doing what they're doing. Let's get into these news uh so much news. The news is just a new updates, UM and what's happening across the nation. So, first of all, I'm really proud of our friend, attorney Benjamin Crump. UM. Just this past weekend we attended attended the Tribeca Film Festival where his film was featured. Sybil is the name of It. On

June nineteenth. It will be released on Netflix. UM. Right now. It's in the film festivals this week actually today. UM. It will also be featured during the African American Film Festival in Miami, which we will attend. UM. The film is incredible. People talk so much bullshit about Attorney Crump, But after watching this film, and we know we worked with him every day, I see Crump all the time. I talked to him at five in the morning. I'm there when he's trying to sleep a little bit in

the middle of the day, he's standing up sleeping. I've seen him through so for years since Trayvon Martin, I've don't Been Crump, and I've watched him grow up, watched him slim down. I've watched him work on his craft and Nope. But after seeing the film, you can't say nothing to me about Been Crump. I mean, you couldn't say that to me before this. But I think the film delves into so many different things. It delves into

his perfect as a delts upbringing. It shows you the complexity of his life, his family, family, how much his wife is so supportive because she He's never there talking

about his family, talking about his friends. You know, my god, Big Silky and Silkie is somebody that you know, he's been with Trump, Triple O G And when you understand his history and you understand how Crump has him with him and every day exactly, and then you look at different cases that you don't even know that Crump is working on, and how he's engaged you know, and then when you you you hear the criticism. He even puts it in it or if you love it, why you're

doing for money in response to it. But basically, I mean, I know, I don't know if it's supposed to tell because people need to watch it, but I think it needs to be said because you know the critics, they will watch us and this, uh and then never gonna

watch the film. And I think that even if you are a critic of someone, especially if you're black and you claim you love black people and you're a critic of someone and they have a documentary, a book or something out, you can't be a authentic critic unless you read it and try to understand more about who that person is so that you can know is it is it firsthand knowledge? Is this exactly? You know? What is

my interpretation real? Or is this what I heard somewhere or just what I think because of based upon me seeing this person for a few seconds. So if you are a real critic of being crumbs, you should be more than willing to sit down and watch this documentary. That again, when he's asked about the money, he talks about how the Civil Rights Division, which are the cases that he fights across the country, they are that is the least paid or the hot the least earning department.

Within his law practice, he makes the most money from personal injury from suing these major companies when they are discriminating against you know, employees on the civil right side. People see these big cases Brianna tell A twelve million dollars, George Floyd's family twenty seven million, which, by the way, when they give you a graph of all the cases,

those are the hot the two highest paid. The rest of them trade Von Martin one one million or two million, somebody one million, two million, And he just it just started to get to the point where they are able to get that type of money for these absolutely right, because making sure that the government pays you. Because he's built up a reputation, right, he's he's able to guard

enough attention. He's able to call people like us and other organized as a civil rights people around this world, call on leaders, call on to bring attention which the government can ignore, right, so that they can't just say, you know, we did this to George Floyd. We're just gonna give you two million dollars and y'all figure that out. No, because they know that the world would be outraged. So

he's able to make those things happen. So because he's put this work in for twenty plus years, he's built itself up to a position to where he is an asset to somebody else's family and and and therefore he makes itself as it to itself. So I don't understand the like I've never understood the criticism. I think people you can criticize anybody you want, but I mean critique

is final. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. For me. It's like, I don't understand why we have no problem with the white lawyers and all of them they get paid hundreds of that you know, you know how many these white lawyers is taken these You know how much um young thugging and lawyers is getting paid for you know, they pay him millions of dollars. By the time you you finished with these white lawyers, if you was in the street and you've got millions of dollars, they're cleaning you

drive and ain't and you're not going home. They're they're taking your money and they're making use. Okay, we're gonna we're just making sure you don't get life. You're gonna get twenty five years. And most of them is cleaning you up. So a man who is fighting and he's getting you a settlement and getting a piece. He ain't taking on. He's getting a percentage of what he thought to get you. These people are just taking what you

already got and you nothing. But you have an issue with us being that you have an issue with the black people being able to be compensating. It's just, it's just I don't need anybody should be working for free, period at all. I think that is crazy. I don't know where it came from, but I personally I do not ascribe to it and I will not. And that's just the bottom line. So next thing. Well, so, anyway back to congratulations, great great, great, great great great film.

Um So, a college student is missing. This story has me tripped out because our director, Kathleen Trigg of Eye Woman tv UM is the person who brought the story to us. I have no idea happened. Sometimes I can't even deal with the news. It's like every time I turn to TV and I want to um So, this college student, her name is t J. She's her mom's only child. She was in her final semester of college. She met a woman online. Lord have mercy we meet people.

I just don't know why we meet people. I don't know why we make physical online relationships like keep it online. What I'm saying now, I mean people that I've met online. They come to our events and new but I'm not meeting you by myself, man, Jesus Christ. Poor baby. So she was making some posters for the woman. I'm I'm going to assume the woman had some type of cause that she was interested in. She was making posters for this woman, and she traveled to d C. You know,

of course, there's many details in between. But she traveled to d C uh to do something for this woman, and she went missing. It's been over a month. Um. She took the bus, got off on Union State at Union Station in d C. She went missing. No one has seen her. On June one, which was about a month later, she calls from Maryland from a hair salon, um and calls her mom and says, come and get me now. She told a family member tell my mom to come and get me now, and then the family racist,

then I mind you. She's from New York. She's a New Yorker, but she ends up there in Maryland calling her mom. So her family they raised to Maryland looking for her about of course, by the time they got there, she was no longer there. So they are looking for their daughter. T J. It's her name, and it's gonna be more information that you will see. Um a matter of fact, can somebody tell me what TJ's last name is? Because I I lost you know, I'm neglected to write

that down. But her name is t J. She's a college student, um, you know, and in her final semester and she is missing. She is somewhere while she traveled from New York to d c UM and around June one, she was at a salon in Maryland. So if you anyone knows of has seen or think they know anything, matter of fact, let me. I think I can pull her name up quickly. Here. What's her name? Baker? T J. Baker, Folks, t J. Baker on t I J A E T I J A E Baker Uh? And how old does she?

Twenty three year old? Young woman went missing, so folks, you know she helped final any information, please reach out. You know, her mother's mother is actually looking for right now physically physically went to d c her. She's actually living out her car and doesn't plan to go back home until she finds her daughter. So please, do you have any inter so you can d m at until excuse me, dm at Street Politicians Pod. You can d m at Street Politicians Pod if you think you have

any information. Next, and our news lineup is Wells Fargo. Now Wells Fargo. They they just they're bad actors. I'm convinced at this point there's been so much in terms of discrimination. Employees complaining they were involved in the Dakota Access Pipeline, which is where the Native Americans were being displaced for a pipeline that they wanted to put in some pipes that would run straight through the Native American land. UM.

There were many into including Queen your Nasca Habulist. I was dear sister who's out there fighting to literally using their bodies to protect the Native land, which is sacred land. UM. And as a result of the spring, because they sprayed them, law enforcements sprayed the people, they tasered them, they locked them up, They did all types of things that impacted

the health of the protesters. And now Queen your Nastah is suffering from cancer uh and dealing with other issues and a lot of other indigent fact, they have been on some that have actually died since the big protests, and Wells Fargo was one of the corporations involved in that. There have been many times where people have called for Wells Fargo to be on the cancel list. Now we find out that they were holding fake in the interviews

for diversity candidates. So these were people who were going in to be interviewed, and there's a manager there who's telling the story himself. So this is not to Maka and some other crazy people made it up in mice on just going along with it. No, this is something where a manager says he noticed. So they were they were bringing these candidates in under the diversity initiative where they're supposed to be hiring. They say, it's a cold

word for women and people of color. Uh, so they're bringing these candidates in and they would interview them for positions. But the guy learned that the manager, he learned that something those positions had already been assigned to someone else, so it already been promised to another person. That's the same thing that happened with the coach in the NFL,

wasn't it. Um I forget his name. But it was the code he was he was applying for a coaching position and found out they had already promised it to a whitening Brian Flores. That's what that's what happened. They sent him, They sent him the wrong email. They said the person who you're actually hiring. He sent him and said he got the job, and he was supposed to go in the next day to the interview. So they were just basically interview him. Nothing to say exactly crazy stuff.

That's what we gotta deal with, man. You know, the discrimination, especially in sports, and it's just so many different other arenas that we have, you see, and just in major corporation. That's what There's very little opportunity for us to really excel in these corporations, major corporations. So you know, this is this is a Michael Cosmo where we actually deal with what it's actually being seen. This has been going, right, It's been going on every day exactly. That's a good point.

That's a good point. It's been going on. Actually we get to see it. So then another thing and this sort of gets into my thought of the day. So I'm going to especially since we are moving quickly to get to our guests. We're trying to learn how to stop talking for ninety hours arguing about everything, so they got us on a real time. I'm frame here, guys. Uh, But now that's okay because you know, I gotta tighten it up. It's nothing wrong with getting better. That's what

we're trying to do. If you get if it takes you a long time to say, you might not know what you're talking about. That's what my pastor says about when you get up to speak, if you need thirty five forty minutes to give a sermon, you don't. You can't really pretty, she said, twenty minutes. Tops people don't want here longer than that. It's okay for work with that. So Trump, Yo, let me tell you something. Trump is the best to ever do. I'm just convinced at this point,

I don't know anybody. Now, let me tell you. Obama worked the camera, He worked angles. I let me see, I can't really obviously we were really young, so I can't think back to any other president. But I'm sure there are folks who are my senior who might say, well, this other president knew how to do it too. But

beyond like Obama was good at the camera. The he was, he was charismatic, and he also was um you know his he they were advanced where they knew how to push the internet right, but Trumpnam they don't took everything Obama new and put a little bit of extra on it. And they are working the algorithm. They're working people's minds. They got the media cycle wrapped around their fingers and it's just crazy. So people are asking, is he finally

going down? And my answer is probably no, Right, I don't think he's going down, but I do think that we need to protect Benny Thompson with at all costs. The congressman who is uh, the the the presiding count congressman, I guess I don't know if they're calling him the presiding official over the January sixth committee. So basically this

committee has been meeting. There's actual testimony going on. I know that in this week they got they have testimony from a couple of people, including that worked directly with Trump that was at one point like his homing them they was all together. And then other people who um he fired, who were like high up in the government. And these are all individuals who are saying that basically there was they already told him from day one that he lost the election period. That's it exactly. Well, they

didn't say that, but that's what we're saying. And then they also had, you know, other individuals who were experts to talk about what took place on January six. Now the insurrection. Now the two things are aligned because it is assumed and and I guess there is some um evidence that proves that the reason why they tried to take basically take the government in a coop is because Trump was basically implanting in these crazy people's minds that he won and that the election was stolen from him

by Joe Biden and the Democrats. That is, that's the whole nation that was his That's that's what it was supposed to be all about. And therefore all these folks got together and went to Washington, d C. To perform an insurrection and and and so that's that's how it is aligned. But if you watch and just pay close attention to the media, they will have you talking more

about whether or not the election was stolen. Then the fact that people went into the capital too, took over the capital, and we're running up walls like animals being people a woman that got herself shot stealing male computing. I mean, what are we talking about? All of that happened, But they will have you talking about election fraud the votes, because that's because they're so good at what they do

as spending it and keeping people focused on the wrong thing. So, my daughter, the j is is Trump going down from all of this? No, because people are not really. I don't even know that the government is really even taken seriously. I just don't know. I know they've got a committee and it's established and knows, but it's gonna take some real I don't excuse me. I don't know if you could say balls, I think that's like, no, I don't

think you're supposed say that. Some real testicular fortitude, Okay, I got that from Mr Trump, some real testicular fortitude for you to be able to fight these people. You gotta fight, man, because if we don't fight, we have Trump back in these to see or at least it's home or man. What I'm trying to tell you, the problem with the government for me is what I've I've learned. You know, I've heard the ballot and brother the thousand times, and and I really what I realized and I understand

now is democracy doesn't really exist. It's it's a it's a farcet. It's not it's no real reality of it, right. And the reason why is because you have a democratic party who just wants to encompass everybody. Right. It just says, you know, hey, you want to do this, you should be equal to this, that all those things are good. Right, But you have a Republican party that is set on we're gonna make money and we're gonna keep our country

and we're gonna do that ship by any means. You have one party is willing to do something by any means, and you have another coom by y'ard, I just want to figure out how can we make things happen, and that doesn't work. So don't matter what happens, there's one party that's gonna always be in control. That's how we So speaking of Boycott Black Murder, we have a guest on today. Now you know Father's Day is coming up, and often with our shows, um not not just with

our shows, I take that back. Often folks in general talk to mothers of those who have lost a loved one in violent incidents. Police brutality. The mother is the heartstring. We know that. M I think most people are comfortable with the fact that the mother's really kind of stepped forward. And the world wants to know when a child is lost, the mother who's bear that child, how do they feel, you know, and and and what is their fight? And really take sort of a lot of their direction. Uh,

you know from the moms. The mothers have been leading the movement in many ways, but we can never lose sight of the fact that they are fathers who are equally engaged that are a part of the movement for uh, for our for our people, especially against injustice and racial violence and and also other violent incidents. And not long ago again, once again, Attorney Crump contacted us about another

situation that took place in Boynton Beach, Florida. Now, in this situation, UH, it's very different because this is a child. And I received a lot of calls from Crump over

the years. Obviously he called this about Brianna Taylor, and there have been other cases, uh also Pam Turner in Texas, lots of cases over the years where he's reached out to say, Hey, I just want to let you know this is going on, and if you all have the capacity that eild get the air or to do something to help uplift the family, you know, please do so. Uh and so in this particular situation, it was the first time that he was calling a about a child.

Thirteen year old Stanley Davis the third um Now Stanley Davis was killed in Boyton Beach, Florida by a police officer by the name of Mark Some this man, Uh, basically, and we're gonna talk to his father, which is why I mentioned Father's Day and how important the fathers are. His father, Stanley Davis Jr. Is going to join us today. Now the story is really important that people get to know the details, because first of all, not enough folks are talking about I don't even know why. I mean,

we should be outraged. The whole nation, the whole world really should know Stanley Davis the Third the same way that you know all the other names. The story goes that he had a dirt bit. Stanley Davis the Third, he had a dirt bite and had gone to the gas station. He goes inside the gas station and he

com back out and he gets on the bike. It looks like before he ever even pumps the gas and he goes out of the station and the police car follows him, and we know that the officer basically ran him off the road, that he lost control at some point of his vehicle. Now, the thing about it is that what I've heard from his father, who again will join us, is that this particular police officer everybody knows him. And we know because we got a whole rat sheet

of stuff that the man has done. Like this is not like he's just some officer who, you know, maybe this is his first incident, not even his second, not even his third, not even his fourth, not even his kid. This is a this is a constant thing where he's somehow it's a it's a no, a rat sheet resume. This job is actually to be cause in habit and pretty much I mean, I don't know. I mean, I guess I'm willing to call him whatever because it is what it is. But he certainly is a repeat offender

of these types of incidents. So because we we met other families, particularly another child who was six years old that was killed as a result of another high speed chase where the child died in the incident that this child died as a result of a high speed chase that did not have to happen. This is his third This is his third incident where someone has died as

a result of a high speed chase. But let me just say, let me just say in August six in August sixteenth, the two thousand and twenty two Officers Zone or mark soon as we you know, we're not calling him officer anything, even though he still has not been fired.

He had neglect of duty for accidentally discharging his shotgun while in the police vehicle in and let's see where October twenty five, two thousand and two, he got a verbal reprimand for the neglect of duty for failing to respond to a backup officer after advising he was in route and arrived twenty three minutes late. So, in other words, they saying he just kind of went off the grid and got in trouble for doing something there that they

couldn't figure out. Where were you? He has several document deficiencies and disciplinary issues in two thousand and in and three again many incidents he uh and and the and the premise of all of this is that we know, based upon all of this that officers shown is racist

that's what we that's what we know. So he got a verbal counseling for violating the Communication Regulation UM in which he responded to a channel which is the radio, by saying that he when he was asked what was his location, he said he was at Stone Haitian Drive,

which evidently was not the name. Yeah right, it was a racial slur into In February or two thousand and three, Officers Zone was counseled in presence of another lieutenant several lieutenants informing him that his performance as a probation every officer had not met the basic required standards to maintain his status as a full time police officer. He was informed that he had two weeks to bring his deficiency.

So he hadn't been in trouble several times, and instead of them saying you're not gonna make it to be a police officer, they put him on the force. They gave him two weeks, put him on the force, and then anyway, the point is that this goes on and on and on. It goes down to Jaden Reardon. This is the at the time he was five years old, this young boy where he was Officers Zone or Mark Zone was conducting the high speed pursuit. The vehicle that he was pursuing struck this child and the child was

killed because again he's chasing people down. And then at the end they found out that should have never been chasing the person in the first place. In two thousand and seventeen, another man, Patrick mcfatt McFadden, was pulled over and Browert County and was surrendering when Mark Soon ordered a dog to attack him. And there are pictures that we will show of this man all uh, you know, bruised up or whatever by this dog that attacked him.

So this man has several incidents, racial slurs, he has, he's he doesn't follow instructions they were gave, weren't gonna let he he didn't make the requirements to become a police officer. They kept him on the force all of this time. He's killed multiple people. And now there's a thirteen year old boy, Stanley Davis, the third who has been killed. And his dad said everybody in the community knew him. Everybody he's been doing this for twenty years.

Everybody knows this officer in our community that coming just terrorized the community and the dirty cops and not doing in not community. Sublies did not life by the police. They target the people in the community, and he seems to be one of those. But he's definitely So we're joining today by Stanley Davis Jr. We as we are again talking about Father's Day, and of course there's a lot of great stuff that we say during Father's Day.

We want to celebrate and highlight, but we have to remember that there are fathers that are hurting deeply because they can't they could not be there to protect their children, uh and to protect them from this brutal system. And so today we want to say to you, um, happy Father's Day. You still deserve that as uh. You know, our community reaching out to tell you that you are loved, that your family is loved and supported, but we know

that you are grieving very very deeply. Uh. And we thank you for coming to be a guest on Street Politicians today. Welcome uh Stanley Davis Junior. You know we were always trying to remember which one is the third, which one is junior and what we know you are. Stanley Davis Junior. Thank you for joining us, thanks for

having me. Thank you to you. How you know I know Father's Day coming up you know, and this traumatic experience and you still fight, you just to get the average basic justice for your son, Like how you feel. I'm not feeling the yesterday I had outbreak in my house. I taught up so much stuff. Yesterday's like, no, David, pleasant, I haven't been happened since the incident happened. I don't have happy days, you know, faturs day, like holidays. I

no longer celebrating the holidays. They would always do me and him, like no matter what was going on, what there was, like you quick out of hand with the saint birth. So you know, stadium, every million and you know it. You have been you ever been to you know, every doctor ever been changed, everybody ever had it always been him. So now it's just like I don't have that anymore. Like I don't look forward to anything. Me waking up and I pray that I don't wake up,

and I just trying to pain. I just want to get it over there. H you know, being a father, you know, I can't even imagine, you know, I actually have three sons, and I just I couldn't even imagine that pain. So I'm just saying you know that I definitely feel for you you know, and even though I never experienced, I could just identify with what it would even remote we feel like. But the fact that we still haven't seen justice. This has happened about a year ago. No,

it's it's decent. This is the day after Christmas. He has been about six months. Yeah, it's been about six months and we still haven't seen your justice. Monks. Only still you know what do you who would you like to see happening? Right? Yeah, I really don't want my thoughts, you know, I can give you them, you know, for him to be fired. Hope my thoughts is really good?

Well not so tell tell me what you think. I mean, you know, and I know from a legal perspective, First of all, you weren't there, so you can't really say what happened or what didn't happen because you were not there. But you but you know, based upon video footage and also based upon uh the witnesses, and then of course your own experience with the same officer and him terrorizing your community. You pretty much have put together the details and your lawyers have of what you we all believe

happened that day. Give us your understanding, um, and and then yeah, go ahead, I can pretty much tell you what happened. The individual that my son was at the gas, but my son just left him house. Um, he went in and pay for gads. But prior to him going in, he noticed the police was circling the gass and so you can see he went in. He gave that guy the money that's want to hit my friend and you

know one of the guys we ride with. So my son he was trying to pretty much get it and go, and that's why you can see he didn't get the tell of the money. Did the guy the money? He came outside and noticed that the officer was going to presume so as you said, like, he never got the gags, he just was trying to go. Um, prior to the instant, you know, he stated about the police officer already you know, causing having on some of the kids that he was with.

But anyways, back to saying what happened. My brother actually called me when it was happening and asked him why I was at I said, now, I just left my house. I'm going to get something ecause my son. Literally ten minutes after my son leave, this incident happened. You know, I was at my mom house and um he asked me and said, well, what is she got on? Said blue jean, black shirt? He said, man, the police chasing, say man. So my brother witnessed the whole thing happened.

That's why it's like I know what happened. And I got there. The only person was there with my brother offers a song and another officer just came when the ambros just righting. So I literally got the two minutes after happen. And when I got there, my son was, you know from where they determined he was deceased. You know, the angion didn't read in the aid, they didn't try to be on the phone for him. I even asked, like you guys gonna help him. They just shipped their

head and walked away. So my brother was telling, you know, the other happens. My brother was telling other officers. So what happened for my brother was witnessed it. You know, my brothers on that on a federal highway helping someone that he knows and witness the whole pursuit and everything. So you're telling us that you arrive and you saw your son. They're deceased or they told you he was deceased, but you saw him physically. Yeah, I physically I was there.

I touched him there. I got there before the m and EM was pulling out when I was filling up. What was h mark Son doing? He was standing next to the vehicle, was just like his hand on the lack of dultline. He was just standing up looking stupid. My brother was going off on stadium man. This was ship kind of sit you always that you've been doing that. You know what you was done for the month. You were just standing out. He didn't win the age, He

didn't do anything. He was just standing off. So you're saying that you not to do nothing since Yeah, so days before your son told you that he put it on social media that they were scared. I can't get in his phone because I don't, you know, have his the steal so you know, I couldn't go back to the archives and retrieve it. But he had just put a post up about it was the frandage. The mom

spoke up after it. Amount of fact, I think the little boy he came, but I there was some of these fans came to get in the pool and he was one of the ones that that same officer he hit him off the bike and was the only thing that saved him from not getting und those because the bike on the sidewalk, you know, was stuck in between the cast so he was able to get up and run. Mark Song was chasing him with a firearm. Kid they

him for a po kid, little kids. So is there an image like do you have a screenshot of your son? What he said on his socidia? But you know, they could have been a story and after twenty four hours is a racing story phone I could have on his archives, you know, yeah? Wow. But he had just said that the officer was messing with them, right, and you you're saying this officer has history, talk about that, yeah, d commune, like you said, you've got the interest with him seeking

the dog on people constantly beat people. As you can see his file like science did I know him personally and chase him, you know, made him reck out and if you got all right, refore pretty much states that the god didn't not wrong, he just did it. Did

to do it. And the Jaden Reid case, like I know his friends would and well Mark someone was chasing the man with the residential area rap rap right across from the school with the inswer he had no regards for like you said, he raised it, and it's it's evident. You got a file in his report and you can see everything that he do is towards black people or hasting minority is. It's never Carcasian. That's really crazy and

I'm quiet. It's no community that I know all go to that there's no white while the white ben turgeted the same way you've turgean in the black. And it's evident. The city of Boring Beach, they see it, they know what's going on, but then it's like they're okay with it. I feel like when you go to it said, anywhere

across America, you're gonna polish stricken areas. That's why all the police brutality happened out, That's why all their injustice happened at because they feel like you have no financial moons, you have no voice. Um here, it is like men ship with the Internet happened. My mom said, though we don't live there. I live in in a different part of the time. And in my community where were the kid to be round to buy the police are calmed.

The man you know, telling to put the bikes up at the five o'clock the end of the city there boring beach. But they're just going to show you how you're being handled when you know, and it's just say fancy to get up for an example, you've been handling them police different in those cities there they allowed that gay And I said something about you know, at q and A, we had with the police to front if wild lot of individual to till rogers to them for so many years. If you guys are not poor, you

could easily transferred him somewhere else in the city. But you know that's not tolerated elsewhere in that city. If you go outside of the ghetto, you you're falling a different uh income category, which means those individuals got the financial means too to go at it with the police or to the tofend their child. Yeah, over there don't happen. So you know the city of that fault as well. And I don't even want to see that because they

are allowed. Like you said, you've seen five over twenty years and I haven't been a time payer where he don't have a break. And that's just the things that he was caught doing. As of all the things he got away with, that's right, that's right. So what what is the status of the case right now? You know, they're not giving us any details about on the thing, but you know I've been talking. They're pretty much saying

they're gonna pretty much terminating Luce lunch Nuss. That's no bigger for me because he needs to be charged, that's right. He definitely needs to be charged. To murder yourself. Yeah, I just feel like I don't know, I can't really shot my thought. But you know, I mean, we'll listen. I understand. I've been working with families for over twenty years, and everything you feel is okay. You know, it's it's

okay for you to feel all those emotions. Um, you know, this is it's it's unfathomable, like I just you know, wow. And and what is worse, it's not even so much that which which which is terrible that he killed your son, but we know they killed black people, this happen. What is unbelievable is that he hasn't just been terminated. That should have happened already before he even got to uh Jaden. Right, So before he killed the last child, there was enough

on him to take him off the force. And yet he has still he's that that there are several litigations happening at the same time he's in court for multiple

things at once with different families. That is ridiculous. And if something had been done about his behavior prior in in previous years, in fact, when they first said that they did not feel at that point that he had done all needed to become a police officer, if they would have looked at his infractions at that time and stopped him from becoming a cop, we wouldn't be here having this conversation. And so it is just, I don't

know the word to describe how unbelievable this is. It's disgusting, man, you know, just that we're having this conversation, you know, around father's thing that that really bothers me being a father, you know, actually meeting this man and hearing his passion and being able to tell how much he really loved his son, you know how much, you know, trying. She's a worrious young king had two parents who loved them,

you know, and they did the right things. You know, they were raising their child the right way they do. They were doing the right things, and they have to be able to deal with these things. And not give any level of justice. You know, it's disgusting and I just want to tell you my heart goes out to you, brother, understand, you know, and we're gonna be fighting with you. You know,

we're gonna do everything we can. We're gonna utilize our voices, our platforms, everything we came man to try to make sure that justice is served for you man. You know. As a final question, I just really want to ask you, you know, just listening to that, trying to just running back in my mind. You know, we we we we don't hear like she says, a lot of times, we don't hear the stories of a lot of fathers. Right. And when you've seen when when this happened to you,

did you ever did this? Was it something that you even fathomed? Like looking back you've seen Trey von mar You've seen what was happened to Brianna Taylor. Like when you when you've seen that, did you ever fathom me your mind that this could actually be me? Right? And then and then after you didn't fathoms two part I don't want to cut you off with after you just couldn't think about it when you in it, does it

give you a different sense of responsibility. Do you wish that before this had happened that you have been more vocal? Like how does that play up like for us? Like I never fathom this happening until me and farther being vocal always been voked in my community. That's why I feel at my I defended my step up everyone. I don't care black white Haitian made me more different. If I feel they're being wrong, I'm avorts my opinion or I'm gonna step forward or and mikeel like you know

my community. Know I helped everyone all across four and I never fought in this happening to me. And like if I if I felt like that, I would have never allowed him to be out, you know. And it's just sad because within the last like years, so I finally let him stop going out. I always keep him in the neighborhood. But it's like, you know, I was telling his mom, you're not a baby anymore. Like you know, he got to find his way, and you know, I don't want to hold his hand and stop him from

being a kid. At that was all over the place. So it's like, you know, I had just started allowing him to go out because I feel I always feel getting the phone calls and something happened with my kids, and I will always tell his mom that's why, you know, I was raising him like you know, no this ShredIt to his mom, but I just felt like I could protect to provide better his mom, and you know she

felt the same way about it. Once. I have another son, and I my kids with my world, Like you know, I always shore them, making shure nothing happened to them, you know, making sure that they got what they needed the or what they needed to be always with me because I felt like like I could protect them, you know.

And I know you said it was a final question, and it's just just listening to you knowing that because I talked to people and we came down for the two or three occasions where we've been there with your family, we have talked to individuals and we know how active you are in your community. People are saying they cannot believe this happened to you because they already knew you to be someone who was out there in the community with the people. And that goes to show that it No,

none of us are exempt. It could be any one of us at any time, including us as the adults, our children, our seniors, any one of us at any time that is a victim of this uh, this system of white supremacy, of racism, of tyranny, of terrorism that are our people deal with. And I heard you say that you feel like you failed. I want to tap into that, right because so many of our fathers feel like they weren't able to be there to stop something

from happening. And I just want to tap into that feeling that you are experiencing and then just get you to tell the community what is it that your family needs, going back to feel them that I felt them when he was born. I hold him in my hand. I told him I will always to protect and as she was going through school and things, that makes our other plan for something bad, no matter what the situation is.

We're being a fixed no matter what. Like I said, I had a perfect child, never been in trouble in school, never been in trouble in home. Dellabatorian Student of the Week, eight weeks in a road on a road street, never been disrespecting no one. And you know me standing over the body, That's what I felt like. I just had

the reil in my hand and I just dropped. M damn me not keeping my word telling him that I would always be that I would always do that for him, and me knowing that he was trying to get back to me because he believed those words that I always spoke to me, and I feel like I just didn't keep my hand to deal, like if I was there no doubt in my mind, he would have had to kill me before I would ever letting hand my child. And every day I think about, like, man, I wish

I could have been the roar. I should have bought him this or you know, I'm like I don't have to buy him back since he was three, so you know, like it was just another ordinary day. But like I said, me feeling like I felt like I wasn't there and at all the places that you know, I could have been in the world, Like I just felt like I should have been there and I ain't. The day that that That's what even there more than anything, because I felt like I told him those words, and my son

believe anything I said. I could have told me the style was yellow and give it when I didn't said it was because he had just got much belief and faith in me. And for me not to be able too to back on what I said. You know, that's why I feel like I felt. I just want you to know something. You know, for thirteen years, like you said, you raised a perfect young man, and you did everything you could. And sometimes the things that we can't foresee as human beings and human nature takes his course to

and sometimes it doesn't make sense to us. But just listen to the level of you know, the level of passion, you know, the manhood demand that you stand as today, the way that you still fight those times that I've seen you walk into those rooms and you demand justice, and the way that you you standing up in that community, and the way that you make sure that his legacy is still here, and the way that you still fight for justice for him is what you said you was

gonna do. So you didn't fail. Brother. I just want you to know that, man, and you deserve everything. You're a good father man and heavy Father's Day because you deserve it. Can Yeah, you didn't fail, and it may not seem like it's today, but I've had to have

this conversation with a lot of families. Unfortunately, some times there's a sacrifice made on behalf of all of us, and Stanley Davis, the third s J is going to be one to change the way that policing happens, at least in Boyton Beach, but hopefully all over the country and then all over the world. Thirteen years old. It pulls at the heartstrings. And that's how young he had to be taken so that no one can ignore or make him just another person who was killed by a

racist cop. It had to be his age. He had to be the perfect kid that was on the honor roll, so they don't come up with all of these excuses to make him a criminal, to make him all of them the bad things that they try to say, which we would still I don't care what he may or may not have been. We would fight for your son. But all of the things that you have said about him makes him the perfect candidate to sacrifice his life

on behalf of all of us to save us. So for this Father's Day, we want you to know that we will be here. We told you that and we meant it, and we will continue to stick with you and your family until the end. Tell folks how they can be helpful. I know you have a petition, what can we all do to support you? Really, his mom been pushing from petition. We just spoke about it earlier.

It's just pretty much being vocal, you know, signing petition, like using your platform whatever platform and social media or whatever, using the platform to get up to get the story out. And then you know, I'm not I'm not I'm not a big talking you know, I just I just feel like they said, even the trade Martin and things with that nature, just you got to be heard, and it's like it's being heard, but it's not being heard because we still have these same things happening every day. Like

the only way I feel like it's gonna change. And I like you said, they're being a rushed or they're taking their pension, or people start getting active, you know what I mean. And I know I shouldn't be thinking like that, but that's the only way I feel like it don't changed. We can sign moment partition, you know what I mean. At the end of the day, if if, if you gotta understand this, the union all cost the

man for the police union. So you know, my son of treyvonman or Core Jones, my childhood grew up with just another you know, you know the word. You know, it's sad, like no matter what we do is it's never gonna be enough because they got all the right people, the right position get you give us one, okay, years one. Obviously you've got Tim more like him in the same city. So it's like at the end of the day, I

don't feel like it's going really be no change. I just I just want to send you some energy, positive, some positive energy, because I know the devil was always busy in these times. Man, but I want you to know that, you know you definitely one of those is God's creatures, man, God's children. Man, So keep have faith. Don't ever lose faith, man, don't ever lose it. I know it seems hard. So I haven't been having faith. Friday today, man, I was so happy. Man, I'm a kid.

I do everything with him, like right now, you know, the summertime, like three and friends, they're back down the pool. I would have ten of them here. I can't get

rid of them every break. You know. It's just like I was so happy, man, you know, just being like you know, entrepreneur, just teaching my son, like he was talking about college, and you know he was like, Dad, you know, I've been to college and we're going so well, and I was teaching about you know, things about own like I have to go to college to go fine. You know, I have a truffing company. Since that's happened with my son, I hadn't text the truck luck to him.

I don't nobody to go out. And it's just you know, my son was into breathing dogs. You know. I bought him all the dogs, and just recently last week, I just nearly gave them away. I gave away my dog. It's like I can't bear you know, what I'm going through. And it's just like I'm not happy. I watched my business pretty much, you know, going on this. It's like I'm not happy. I don't have a happy moment. You know, my other son. You know, I went months without speaking

for my when I had my kids every day. I guess my stage is like this, this this is just destroys the family. Yes, sir, yeah, would you give your head up? Yeah? You know sometimes you know you gotta go through it. You get through it. Man. It's a lot. Man, You're dealing with a lot. You got heavy burden to carry. Man, But God give us his toughest battle to the strongest Soldiers game. So I know it seems tough, but it's gonna you know, justice. I think justice will help you

feel a little little bit better. So that's what we will be fighting for. Thank you so much for joining us today. We're gonna be telling the story of Stanley Davis the Third s J all over the world. Wherever we go, we will take your son with us. God bless you. That's how we own it. Wow. You know, just hearing the pain is Stanley David Junior's voice took a lot of my energy. You notice, usually have a lot, but just hearing him and you can tell he's a

strong man. He's a strong man, and he feels defeated, like when you feel like you failed you that's no man wants to feel like he failed this job. You know, we don't like to feel like we feel anything. Just knowing that his child is not here and you feel like he failed as a father. You know, you can tell you successful businessman, all these things, but you feel

like he felt because he wasn't there. And I didn't want to make him relive the trauma, but I really wanted to ask him because sometimes it's just important for our people to hear the story and get into the details so we can like own it like it's our own. So we could go out and tell people the story the same way we do for Brianna Taylor. We should be doing that. Fan. But I when he said my

son tried to make it back to me. I remember Shannon Um s James Stanley Davis the third, he's affectionately known as s J. I remember her saying that he was going in the direction of the house or wherever his dad was, so he was probably trying to make it back to his family before this man ran him off the roat. It's just too much. I just I don't even want to talk. And so we're dealing with so much death, right, young black males are dying. Um

the brother Trouble with young rapper from Atlanta. What does he rap about? I mean, who was I actually met Trouble a couple of times of trade. Trade introduced me to Trouble in Miami, and I has just lost soul. He was a good rapper man. You know, it was street, it was street music, it was based around street music. But he was a positive dude. You can see you can actually hear him his elevation and evolved into someone who was, you know, just street conscious and just being realistic.

You know, Tod how he lost his life, you know, gunned down in the girl's house. He was dealing with a strange ex boyfriend, you know over well, she said, I read, I read, and I think it was in the police report, because that's where it looked like online that you know, on the internet, they chopped stuff up and do whatever they want. So I can't be too sure, but I read that in her her statement to the police, she mentions that this guy and they were together just

a week ago. So when you know, when you say it's strange an x, yeah, a week I mean you see him when he was being arrested like a big dummy. Yeah, It's just I've just never been that tape. I'm not beating you. I don't even want to fight you over a girl that didn't want me. But I just I don't know. Everybody is different, Like you know, a lot of us haven't learned how to deal with our emotions, how to put those things. And if you go to a girl's house and another men's did I mean she

didn't force his win let you know. Yeah, But you know when you say, well, this is a whole different days conversation because when you say somebody that doesn't want me. Oftentimes and I'm not saying I don't know this young lady, she could have been trying to get out of relationship. I don't know, but sometimes we say somebody, I don't you know. These things should show a person that I

don't that this that you're no longer interested. But it's the it's your mannerisms, how you treat a person, and also the things that you say. Some things are said, some things just feel a certain way. If you are not very clear with people verbally, emotionally, and physically that you are done, people will get the impression that they should be fighting because they believe that there's hope. So hopefully that that's not well. I mean we will do

crazy see things after they feel like whatever. I think it's I mean, you you break up, you're in a situation. Whatever, you don't break up. This is a situation. Is this is anger and all this, but you're killing some money. It just doesn't you know. The man lost his life over something that definitely should have been avoided. So I just want to say, r I P. You know, we we're losing so many young black men. You know, we're using babies. Police is killing us. We're killing us, you know.

And and that brings me to you know, this rally march meeting that I'm doing in the Bronx this Father's Day that I want everybody to be at, you know, and it's called we must protect our babies, you know, And it's against all of these things, against police violence against me black and black violence is against all the negativity as many in our communities. We have to take

back our communities. You know. It's the things that I've I've hashtag core cower culture, and it's so many different things going on where men who were supposed to be men are doing things that are sold beneath him below. With manhood looks like and what it is. It was established for me that we have to re establish with

manhood's right. We have to go back to when as men, our parks were safe, where the woman felt safe because there were certain men in our community the didn't know what there to protect even when you were doing hustling and anything. We protected the kids and the babies and the woman and they felt safe. They understood. Okay, he might be doing this part over here, he might be hustling, but I know that they're gonna protect this community. We're gonna help you with this your bags. If you need

some money, we're gonna give you some groceries. There was a neighborhood, there was community, There was you know, we we we all had different things that we were dealing with. You know, poverty had a in my frame where we're trying to figure out how we're going to survive. But we wasn't trying to kill each other. We wasn't trying to take our lives. Our communities were well, I don't know, there was there, but it wasn't like today. There was

there were unridden rules. You know, there were unridden rules that women and children were off limits, that you didn't shoot in parks where kids was. There was if you had beef, you waited to the nighttime, even though it wasn't right, but it was. There was unwritten rules that the kids and the women were supposed to be safe and it was supposed to be and then off limits.

And I think, you know, we've moved so far from that that nothing is off limits, you know, And that's why I called this rally and this march on Father's Day because I think it stemmed from me from the young eleven year old girl who got shot and killed and I listened to in the Bronx and I just

listened to her father cry. And just a week before that, the seventeen year boy was here with the Cobridge and we did in the Bronx, and it's just like you know, and I'm in front of Bronx, and I just wanted to convene in the Bronx to call all the fathers to meet us in the Bronx. You don't have to be in front of Bronx, but this is just actually where I'm from, you know, it's my community, and I wanted to convene there. So um, so on this Sunday, we're gonna be doing to march. It is going to

be on the Foredom in the Grand Concourse. That's the gathering spot. Um. We're gonna all just rally and we're gonna meet, Like I said, we're gonna talk about solutions. Is gonna be or a lot of different violence interrupters. People have already been doing this work. Like I said, it's a coalition of a lot of people who've been

doing this work. We have s OS, we have RPG, we have man Up, we have all different organizations that are in the Bronx that I've worked with on the daily, and we've all decided that we're gonna come together to be people from different sites, not even in the Bronx worldwide, people who reached out, um, you welcome. Also, they'll probably be system brother marches, different people you know, other places.

But it's just it's really just us saying that we're taking back our communities, right, you know, like you said, the world has existed, they've been doing this work. It's not new. It's just I think the strategy of us unifying all of them and then being able to highlight people in their their particular areas, and we're coming to your community and saying, hey, this person is part of our our team. We all as a team, and we're

all pouring resources into that individual. And then we're pouring resources into that individual as we come to their communities and we continue to do that and then it's known as this is what it is, you know, And I

think that's a strategy. And then we also want to incorporate you know, the help of different artists from the community is because as an artist, you have responsibility and when you're screaming out that block, I'm from this black hole day and you have responsibility to make sure nobody done on that block. So we want to incorporate artists, We want to make sure that you know, the radio stations,

everybody is involved. If you're not involved in, you know, the stopping of black murder in our communities, then you're not for our communities. So you know that's that's gonna be one of the main focuses for me and in a lot of different organizations and with the coalition, And it's gonna be on Sunday, you know, on Sunday Father's Day. Am at Fordham Road in Grand Concourse. What is it called Big Punt Plaza now they call it, Yes, they changed the name to Big Punt Plaza. So make sure

you're out there as we together. And that brings you to my I'm gonna fire today these lights whoa's on fire? I don't get why, I'm so damn but it all, it all correlates into the same thing. Oh don't I don't get it today. It's based on a video I say, I don't know if you've seen it, watch there was theseus Oh no, it was all aways needs. I seen it like last week, and I was really just sitting here trying to figure out how to I even see something about it. We were just dealing with so many

different things. And I had this video and there's a car chase. A car is driving alongside a guy. He's running with his baby stroll and it's a kid. What I'm seeing is the kids are watching it on their cell phone, and I guess they see what happened. They're like, yo, look he chases. Look and we got the stroll, he got the shore. They're laughing, you know. And then at the end of the video, you don't see what happens. You just see the baby inside the garbage can't crying,

probably two years old. The baby is inside the garbage, playing and the baby's crying and they're like, whoa, he threw his baby in the garnage, and they're laughing. And I'm just saying, so the people on the video are not associated with them, I don't know. I can't tell you whether they are not, because I don't know how they would have the video if they weren't associated with it,

or maybe they did somebody sent it to him. I don't know what it was, but I know that you see the guy running, he has the stroll and he's running. They're like where you going? Where are you going? Where you're going? And they're like driving alongside of him as he runs, and you don't see them actually put the kid in the garbage when there's a picture of the baby upside down and he's crying inside the garlage, and

and I just did they kill the guy? I don't know what happened to the guy, so you don't see that anymore. I don't know what. I just know that the baby was inside the garnage and he was crying. They took a picture of it, and they made it as if they had did the biggest thing. And know they know not to play with me, and it was some tough It was a badger honor, and to me, it was the most cowarsh that I've ever seen. Like every day I say that, right, and it feels like

it gets more and more cowardy, cowardly. I think I only want to el cawarity. You know, It's like, at what point, dude, we say as man like I'm not gonna sink this. But I don't even understand the mind state of a man that would throw a baby in the garbage, because you got to quote unquote some type of beef with the father, Like what when did we move that far from integrity? You know? And these kids was laughing like it was really such funny, like there

was something they did. And then people asked was he right or what they right a wrong for what they did? And I'm like, how how does that a question? You know, I don't get I don't people was asking that they write along, they asked on the video, they wrote was they threw the bag to be in the garbage? Where they right a wrong? Because this is his option if you catch the baby and whatever it is, it's it's you know, it's it's all games. And this is a

mindstake that we have now. And it's like for me, were it's anarchy, It's this is straight we are there's no level of anything. And I really just don't get it, man.

And I'm hoping that we get back to some level, hoping that this march and you know, this boycott Black Murder movement, you know, move coalition and just connected with the Brothers who have been doing this work, and assistance who have been doing this work, and everyone who's been doing this work, and just really coming together under one unbrellable, one strategy to make sure that everybody gets the resources and the opportunities and everything needed to make some significant change, right.

I'm just looking forward to that. Yeah, I mean, I think the great thing about Boycott Black Murder, where we really are focused on shifting the narrative, enforcing corporations, radio stations, artists, individuals, everybody who has an influence to start really uh, you know, sort of participating, as you said, in this movement to end the violence. The just just like the overwhelming level

of violence that's happening in our community and stupidity. To do that, it's gonna take more than one meeting, more than one march. So when people say, why are you guys out there, we have to keep being out there.

We can't ever allow it to be that people in the community feel like, oh, well, we're just killing and that's it, and that the robbers and the and the scammers and the abuses and all of those who are causing this type of environment that they think that they just free to roam and that they're not people like us who show up to shine a light on them

and to shine a light on their communities. And people in the community need to know that they have support and that they are loved, and that folks are here to pay attention. So we're gonna keep marching, We're gonna keep gathering, We're gonna keep needing and talking about different ways to uh, you know, to engage in this work.

And after we finished marching together, we're gonna go to a location that will be announced and feed families on Father's Day, hoping that we get some brothers to come out um and and get groceries for their family members, very similar to what we did in Buffalo. Because there's a mass shooting happen and every day just right here.

I think it's hypocritical of us to fly to other cities and other places because of because of because of because we feed families and feed people around the nation, we've done it many times, but because of ten people, ten of our seniors are elders being slaughtered in one place,

everybody is gonna go there. Everybody is going to bring resources, and we should and we should and we have to, but we also have to realize that ten people have been killed or hurt, murdered, slaughtered, abuse, attack in different pockets of the city just over the weekend, in that past, just in the last several days. We have to see that at the same level that we do our seniors outside of a grocery store. And if we bring resources to Bath Buffalo, We've got to bring resources to the Bronx.

We've got to bring resources to the South side of Chicago. We've got to bring resources to Louisiana, to uh Latonia, Atlanta, you name the cities where our people are hurting and where where these violent incidents are happening. We gotta beat them, be present because you know there is mass murder of black people happening everywhere. H said. It has to be a culture shift, man. We have to make it not cool like this can't be cool for somebody to do

a baby. You can't be I k and shot. It can't be cool, like there can't be any level of acceptance. There has to be ostraciation. Ostracization. You have to be ostracized if you're in the community and your course and have it and we can have it on our community. So it's a new day. It's a new movement and we ain't taking no points. And with that said, I'm not gonna always be right, but I'm how to sail to me. It's not gonna always be wrong, but we're

gonna both always and I mean always be that. Listen to Street Politicians on the Black Effect Network on I Heart Radio, and catch us every single Wednesday for the video version of Street Politicians on I Women Dot Tv.
