Best of #RMU: Check Candace Owens; BLM Vs. Trump; Jobs #s not good for us; Goodell: NFL was 'wrong'

about when people like Candace Owens set out to be so destructive against African Americans, what they're really doing is playing into white supremacy, so what you have to understand is that this year it's white people in America who don't love anything else . than to find a black person who says some of the most evil and vile things about other black people because, look, then they can talk to black people through that black person, oh yeah, over the years we've seen, The scammers we have seen. people like Candace Owens, people like Larry, the older ones, like Jesse Lee Peterson, and we can go on and on, well, they track them down to the trash and attack black people and present themselves as these dear African Americans, this is the same.

There are no areas of Canada that use the n-double a-c-p to get agreement from their school district on the issue of race, but the same one now that would destroy the end of a CP that was there to defend it. I called them because they deserve to be called I said I'm going to call Carlson and Laura Ingraham and Senator Rand Paul now I call all these other people, I also call the black people because everyone who is your skin is not Joe relatives and you understand that that's one reason why the Candace Owens of the world and the Brandon Tatums of the world there's a reason they're afraid to come here that's one reason they're afraid when they have a little sick black conference where our credentials had been approved but they revoked it because see when we were leaving the White House and Candace saw me and gave me an evil look and what are you doing here?

I said: sorry, I cover black things. This is not a black event. I think she stood there in an amazing gray flannel suit and was angry. Seeing as you called me Uncle Tom and that's why I blocked you in the first place. It's a lie because I don't allow people. call Republicans black or black and serve Uncle Tom's or Coons or traitors or Oreos and I'll allow it, so she was lying and I told her little underling who ran after her, he said, but we have the evidence, I said, bring me the evidence. "We're still waiting for the reason you should always call out liars like Candace Owens, the reason you should call out evil, hateful people who say the things she says about black people is because someone else might be." listening to them as a reason I let people come on this show and live because look, if you're watching this show and someone lies on this show, then you didn't correct them, so what they said must be true, no, I didn't.

I allow it. So I will always call out petty people like Candace Owens and if I see them in person I will look them straight in the eye just like I did with Charlie Kirk who said oh no we will debate someday but I have to go. Ask Candace first Let's see, everyone will understand something when they read the scriptures and remember when evil would lose its mind and start screaming and shouting when

good

people walk by, see the light and the dark, don't go together. I'm a big center of attention. against the darkness of people like Candace Owens and Brandon Tatum I am more than willing to debate any of them.

I had the Nesta Sousa right here. I welcome any of them to the table, in fact, I will go to their table, choose what you want. to debate, pick a day, pick a time, pick a place and I'll be there. I bet you can fill the place with all your followers. I'll kill every one of them all night long, but we as black people understand what's moral. and we can never be silent when evil is among us and even when it resembles one of us, any thought is a windy Rob or the lord of it. Marley Thank you mr.

Mark, let me be on your show, yeah, just so you know. I think the whole Candice Owens phenomenon is interesting to me because it's not just her making these comments, it's what she represents. I've been on Fox News several times and called. He came out to her and said, I'm willing to debate you because she never argues or engages in a conversation without being

check

ed, so to speak, and I think that's really important and I'm glad you said her name because we need to know. She is present throughout their lives and what happens with Candice Owens I think is so important that we all need to know is that she is a shell, she is being used as a pawn in the chess game that is politics and the chess game that These are race issues in this country, so I understand that people need to get their currency.

I get it, but if you're selling your soul to secure a purse, then you need to

check

it out because you're selling to the same people who, as Roland mentioned, saved you. when you needed us, so don't expect these white people to turn their backs on you because they will, they will, it's just a matter of time, they will do you the same way they did diamonds, this silk, what they ended up using and abusing you you. They are going to throw you away, don't come to us to save you here, you stole, right? Yeah, well, I mean, you guys covered it, you covered it.

I'll just say that they know she clearly doesn't love herself. I don't love black people and she will do anything to make money and she will do anything and she will say anything. She finds out what's the furthest she can go, the most right-wing, the most self-deprecating that she can go and then take that position and go even further because that's her business model her business model is to say outrageous things do outrageous things. but and I kind of agree with what the person who told me we shouldn't talk about it because I was debating that as if we're giving it, we're discussing our platform.

She likes this. She likes the fact that she can go and talk to Fox News and say "she watches it roll." Martin talks bad about me as if at the end of the day she is nothing, she doesn't have anything and she has. Her only skill, and it's great, she's

good

at it, is promoting herself and figuring out how to get in front of cameras to say things that might resonate with a base she's looking for, the racist base she's looking for, to be inflamed or validated. . her opinion, you know she wants to make them say that it's okay that you don't see George Floyd as a human being, that's why he's dangerous, Derek's final comment, although I don't agree with everything you guys did and it frustrates me because you know that I'm in I'm in places where I hear people like Well, did you see what Candice didn't, what is that, did you see what Kevin Owens, oh, it's like it bothers me so much because if you have to look at her and everyone else does? that you just planted even mentioned his name, but if you look at them and look at the exact reasons why they were there, they are two of the reasons why black people along with their president never considered the Republican applause and therefore, sometimes it is.

It's not what he said about Floyd and that's it, this is this spring and he shines by putting something completely different, it just dampens everything that we're working for right now during this movement and he's a right man and I'm mad and we forgot. but no, I see the reason, the reason, the reason why I did it and it is because when you are called to sit at the table of power, you can wreak havoc and there may be a young African-American, there may be a white person, a Hispanic. person who listens to it and says oh my God, that makes a lot of sense mm-hmm, but if there is no counterattack then we allow it to help, but the problem is the role in which people are not going to listen to the counterattack because we can go down. rah rah rah that's not true you know this is what I'm saying but wait wait just give me a second because social media will work and it can become an echo chamber so the problem is people will listen, will do it. you care and you can't like Owens and they won't listen to you because that's true you're not you're not who they want to know so right Rob, you're missing out this is what you're missing when they type their name on YouTube and the algorithm will appear in my video, look, trust me.

I also know how this game works. What happens is part of the reason for doing this and I'm just using an example when Snoop Dogg did it. a video and the one who took it criticized Roots the remake of Roots. I objected to what he had to say and when I typed Snoop Dogg and Roots into Google I saw how his comments went global. IBM came back and made a comment against what Snoop Dogg said, guess what happened to that comment, it went global now Snoop shoots better than me. I need to check it again. We finally talked, yes, we let it go, but I did it because if I hadn't, it would never have been a Contrary to what he had to say, I'm sure she has two million on Facebook and you know, a million on Twitter, whatever, but here's the piece.

I made a million on Facebook, I made five hundred thousand on Twitter, four, 81,000 on Instagram and $12,000 on YouTube, etc. What I mean is you can't let something, you can't let evil allies be left alone, so that's what happened in the meeting you did with Donald Trump, what the bad guys did but the mainstream media was that the mainstream media didn't have a handle on Donald Trump at the time, okay, if he wins, you know, the president submits numbers to run for president, I don't like it, so you're pointing out that I'm anybody. Rob, your talk show host, is fine, but what I'm trying to say is that I guess it's just a point of frustration, he has so much reach and she's reaching because he's giving so much ignorance.

Hey, I'm not frustrated about that because he already told you what the problem is. There are white papers, the ball that Candace follows is not black. They're white people who love Candace Owens because she can say things they can't that's right so she sees a big supporter on the market yeah that's one of the others she's a puppet let me tell you something Okay, you saw a little photo. There from Pence I know AR Bernard and Keiko James and Angela Sailor and Elroy Sailor I've had them all on the show guess what they don't call them for certain things they don't call Derek so I call and I can see that there is a segment of the Republican Party that They love diamonds and silk They love Candace Owens They love Brandon Tatum because they love Terrence Williams They could sit back and watch the minstrel show They remember the problem that the miserable shortage of minstrels had fans What's the problem with the Republican Party They know that they they allow it and they something they encourage and they know it used to be a dog whistle with this president is the horn too racist is the bull horn he's really very clear and that's the problem, you know if the Republican Party really wants to attract to voters of color that they don't know right now, their goal right now is to find ways to prevent black voters and other voters from voting and just appeal to the most extreme racism that will be drowned out and I hope for the day, I hope for the day when the Republican Party do that and we can take my humanity off the table, it's not a political issue, that's what I said, period, but Bob online, Derrick, you never let evil stand alone, it always has to. be countered and even if you think you're whistling in the wind trust me someone will hear that whistle if you want to support Pilcher's bunk be sure to join our bring the funk fan club every dollar you give us supports our daily digital. launches one's daily digital show here that keeps it black and keeps it real as unfiltered mobile market support Roland Martin's daily unfiltered digital show going to Roland Martin unfiltered calm down you can make this possible folks this is crazy, okay so I'm going to our panel in a second let me take care of this first what am I going to do with this do you realize that at the press conference today this idiot actually said this about George Floyd look at this we can't allow for that to happen, hopefully, George is watching? down right now and saying something great is happening for our country it's a great day for him it's a great day for everyone today's

jobs

report was a great day for George Floyd and I hope he's putting us down Kristen Clark the clues and the laws committed because surprising is the law, she joins us right now Kristen clearly, what do you say in the face of so much stupidity? using park police using secret service shooting tear gas using chemical agents using batons people who were actually injured while people peacefully gathered in front of st.

The Attorney General of John's Church issues he or the attorney general of the bar issues the order that those people have to be deployed now the people were surprised there were children around there there were elderly people around there there were religious people around there there were black, white and brown people there was the Park Police, their Secret Service, the National Guard, it was horrible, and what we did in the Committee of Lawyers for Civil Rights Under the Laws, which said that enough is enough, we know what it is about, we saw this in Selma, Alabama, with peaceful protesters.

We are marching across the Edmund Pettus Bridge and were met with state-sponsored violence when they got to the other side. Here we are in 2028 dealing with the same thing, so last night we filed a lawsuit in federal district court here in Washington DC on behalf. from DC's chapter on black lives matter the title of the case is black lives matter DC versus TrumpOther named defendants include the attorney general bar an esper and a series of government officials who violated the Constitution by using state-sanctioned violence to attack peacefully gathered protesters and What we plan to do as people across our country she is protesting, demonstrating and expressing her pain over the death of George Floyd, crying out for reform, crying out for the police before her now it is We will support them and we will use the courts to make it clear that they have a right to be out there and that right comes from the First Amendment to the Constitution that says you have the right to freedom of speech and right. to the assembly and there is something interesting about President Trump: he believes in the First Amendment, he believes in the First Amendment when we are talking about armed activists who are besieging government buildings, he believes in the First Amendment, when we are talking about extremists who are trying to go and speak on campuses, he believes in the First Amendment, when talking about hate mongers in Charlottesville, he believes in the First Amendment, when talking about churches that are trying to defy state orders. follow stay at home orders but don't believe in the First Amendment when people come out to talk about racial justice and police violence and issues they don't agree with and that's not right, it violates the Constitution and that's what we're fighting for .

Over and over again what we are seeing is that we are seeing that this use of force is a battle with a DC mayor in terms of people who are in the nation's capital and what we are also seeing are ferocious attacks on Christians by part of police officers throughout this country. Buffalo magazine video Philadelphia New York Los Angeles it's like the cruelty we talked about has been unleashed on black people, white people are being beaten like crazy out there these police officers who are operating as if they have absolutely nothing, already You know, no, no. no remorse we're just going to walk away yeah right now a lot of people have seen the video of the old man in buffalo who was pushed down bleeding from his ears into the back of his head and now we understand that all of the officers apparently have resigned because of a discipline that was imposed on the officer who pushed, they are united and here is what raises a big problem that we are going to have to address: now we participate in this national debate on police reform what do we do with police unions and what do we do with the culture within police unions and these collective bargaining agreements that so often are an obstacle to reform and that often prevent people from implementing the reforms that we need to transform a police department we know what we need we need a ban on chokeholds we need a ban on racial discrimination we need to create a national database where we can track the misconduct of police officers and make it impossible for them to be purged one day and then rehired the next here we need a national standard on the use of force we need to ban the use of federal money to bring in militarized equipment we know the reforms that are needed but a big obstacle will be police reforms and also How do we change the culture within police departments?

So many police officers operate with this warrior mentality. It's a war. Put on your riot gear, get out your baton, get out your tear gas, when in reality if you had a different mindset and saw yourself as a guardian of the people as a community builder, we wouldn't have the tensions and conflicts that we're seeing and We saw that last weekend in Camden, New Jersey, Flint, Michigan, the officers who chose to march alongside the protesters and I said: I'm with you, I'm not against you, the dynamic was totally different and in the places where the people came out with their tanks and riot gear, you know, tension levels just increased dramatically, it's going to be a long road to reform. but we know what we have to do to get the job done, but for now the protesters and the protesters are playing an important role because they are shedding light on the issue and they are making it impossible for you to turn the channel and move on to something else, this issue came to stay, it is front and center and it is not going away and at the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law we are going to defend right now those who choose to protest in the streets exercising their First Amendment right Kristen Clark, the law committee for civil rights under law will appreciate it.

What is the website where people can support the work you do? Visit www.potterybarn.com to purchase these headphones. Use promo code RM VIP 20. /20 RM VIP 20/20 I'm just going to watch the calm while Cee K calms down make sure you watch it and we thank the other party okay guys let's get to this story boy a big story, New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees weighed in. We showed you the video yesterday when I replayed it today where Drew B reads an interview with Yahoo Finance and for some reason decided in the middle of all this to talk about the American flag video from the Kaepernick protest from a few years ago. and obviously it was always about police brutality and now it's coming back to the four and a lot of people are hoping that we see players take a knee again when the NFL season starts.

Now I'm curious how you think the NFL will and should respond. That and of course you are a leader in the league what is your responsibility as a leader in climbs like this for the rest of your teammates and players in the league well, I will never agree with anyone disrespecting the flag of the United States . of America or our country, let me tell you what I see or what I feel when the national anthem plays and when I look at the American flag, I imagine my two grandfathers who fought for this country during the World War. two, one in the Army and one in the Marine Corps, both risk their lives to protect our country and try to make our country in this world a better place, so every time I stand with my hand over my heart looking at that flag and singing the national anthem song, that's what I think about and in many cases it makes me cry when I think of all that has been sacrificed, not only those in the military, but also those in the civil rights movements of the years 60 and everyone and everything that has been endured by So many people up to this point and since everything is good in our country right now, no it's not like that, we still have a long way to go, but I think what you do being there and showing respect to the flag with your hand over your heart, is that correct? shows unity shows that we are all in this together we can all do better and then we are all part of the solution it was fever and fog NFL athletes included two of their teammates not happy at all, it said, the safety from the hall fame has this to say, looking like Frederick Douglass while doing it, I'm going to get right to the point.

I see Drew Brees trying to play the part of him and keeping black people in the right circle of him, that's why he drew Brees, we all have kids so I'll try. for mine, what I say now drew Brees, your street, suck them in your sucker for that, brother, why do you think all these young people here protesting? Why do you think they are here protesting the looting? I can see you talking about the looting and saying that's Bad, you don't support that, but why do you think all these young people are here protesting? I really have no more words for you, brother, calm, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, and for all my Saints fans, for all my New Orleans people. who still like your ass just because they want to win games, you're fine with them you understand, draw brees, you're a fool, you're going to be a fool, you understand, Steven Jackson, a very close friend of George Floyd, said this, shut up , Micah Thomas. man, way to hold yourself accountable, Brees, Micah, I'll give you a pessimism even if all those touchdowns hold his hands responsible, bad timing and he drew Brees, bad timing, bro, it's okay, you let yourself play from the waters and you live in all the worlds . black people, all that support, you drew Brees, you gotta be a little more sensitive to the moment, bro, you can't just say about jazz, you should understand, but y'all gotta hold all our white teammates accountable, bro, all that what do you know.

I'm saying we beat me, we gotta get it over with now, there's nothing over the fence, okay, yeah, I gotta check on my teammates, Michael Thomas, I salute you bro, Drew Brees, where the check is an ass, if you're not with us, then hey! on the other side I will let friends and act as if they support us. I have you very depressed with us, we are not buying it. I let half support us Wayne Donald ed the same thing, screw you half that support is the same thing and you throw them away. passes that make you get all these damn yards Thank you, I don't like the truth Malcolm Jenkins, who is a Saints player, I was very excited look at this, yeah, I promise you this, the offense we have to deal with, it's a madness right now, drew Brees.

If you don't understand how hurtful and insensitive your comments are, you are part of the problem of thinking that because your grandfather served this country and you have great respect for the flag, everyone else should have the same ideals and thoughts as you. . to do is ridiculous and shows that you don't know history because when our grandfathers fought for this country and served and came back, they didn't come back to a hero's welcome, they came back and were attacked for wearing their uniforms, they came back. to the people, to racism, to outright violence and then here we are in 2020 with the entire country on fire, everyone witnessing a black man die in the hem being murdered at the hands of the police and it's not just in cold blood so that everyone see the The whole country is on fire and the first thing you do is criticize the peaceful protest that happened years ago when we were trying to make a sign for help and point to our allies and our white brothers and sisters, the people we consider friends to get involved was ignored and here we are now with the world on fire and they still continue to criticize first how we peacefully protest because it doesn't fit into what they do and their beliefs without even acknowledging the fact that the man was murdered at the hands of the police in front of all of us and that has continued for centuries that the same brothers that you break up the huddle with before every match, the same guys that you believe and are going to fight with every single match. day come home to communities that have been decimated Iran unfortunately unfortunately you are someone who doesn't understand your privilege, you don't understand the potential you have to truly be an advocate for the people you call brothers, you don't understand history and why people like me, people with my skin color whose grandparents fought for this country, who served and I still protested against it, against them, not against the national anthem, but against what was happening in America and what we fed into the fabric of this country.

If you don't understand that other people experience something totally different in you, then when you talk about being the Brotherhood and all that is just lip service or is it just in the field because when we leave the sphere and I take off my helmet I'm a black man walking around America and I tell you I'm dealing with these things. I tell them that my communities are dealing with these things and their response is don't talk. about that here this is not the place where the place you drew is I'm disappointed I'm hurt because why does the world tell you that you're not worthy that your life doesn't matter the last place you want to know about many guys you go to war with and that you can consider allies and friends even though we are teammates.

I can't let this go. Several New Orleans Saints unfollowed Drew Brees on social media. said sabalos former NBA player released this video on Instagram my name is Cedric Ceballos you may not know me Lanning we crossed paths before we knew who you are let me introduce you to Gregory Lloyd Edwards Wow powerful powerful video there that system they took me out there resi draw brees posted This Last night I showed a poster I said boy, your PR team is working overtime so this is what you posted this morning, first of all, I was outraged yesterday, but mmm, things changed this morning.

I would like to apologize to my friends, teammates. city ​​of New Orleans, the black community in the country community and anyone I hurt with my comments yesterday is speaking to some of you. It breaks my heart to know the pain I have caused in any attempt to speak about respect, unity and solidarity shared around the world. The American flag and the national anthem. I made comments that were insensitive and completely missed the issues we are facing right now as a country. They lacked conscience and any kind of compassion or empathy; Instead, those words have become divisive and hurtful and have misled people. in believing that that is something that I am and something that I am somehow an enemy this could not be further from the truth and is not an accurate reflection of my heart or my character this is where I am, I am, I stay with the community black woman and the fight against racial injusticesystemic and police brutality and support the creation of real political change that makes a difference.

I condemn the years of oppression that have taken place in our black communities and still exist today. I recognize that we, as Americans, including myself, have not done enough to fight for that equality or to truly understand the struggles and plight of the black community. I recognize that I am part of the solution at Kennedy and can be a leader for the poor in the black community right now. I'll never know what. It's like being a black man or raising black children in America, but I will work every day to put myself in those shoes and fight for what is right.

I have always been an ally, never an enemy. I'm sick of the way my comments were. perceived yesterday, but I take full responsibility and accountability. I recognize that I should talk less and listen more, and when the black community talks about their pain, we all need to hear that, I am very sorry and I ask your forgiveness, reisi, listen. I'm going to echo the very wise words of Stephen Jackson's youth, Frieza, him and all these fake allies that sit there and put up these black squares. who put out these PR statements and their actions say the exact opposite of what they are trying to telegraph to people.

This is not a game for black people, people who are risking their lives by risking coronavirus and all the other things. and risk more death and more brutality from the police. This is not fun, this is not an Instagram game, this is real life and death for us. You are not an ally, Drew Brees or anyone like you, anyone who agrees with you and your stupid racist mentality. I am it. I'm so sick of being condescending, I don't want to listen to juries, you're not a leader, you just need to sit down and shut your mouth, how's that for all of you guys thinking you're going to use? this moment to show your Elijah even though his PDFs and his statements and all that other stuff don't line up with the way he's behaved throughout his entire life, shut up, sit down and shut up, you can listen to the blacks without doing a damn. announcement that you listen to black people, you can be an ally, some of you might be able to do that without you knowing how to act for people, just do the work, just shut up and listen, that's it, it's in my blood it's boiling. and in that image of a black man then what the hell was it?

It's insulting and they're not helping. Now is not the time for kumbaya. Now is the time to choose a side. Are you on the side of white supremacy or are you on the side of white supremacy? the black humanities side and black lives matter there ain't no kumbaya with that you're one they're the other period well cool now you gotta follow that listen look I'm happy to put up all that smoke to train on Drew Brees Resi just laid it out and my man, Adri, channeled his inner Erica Savage Wilson in that he just wishes he saw an NFL game, since you know, I wouldn't sign caps, I haven't seen an NFL game in a couple of years, but the Ravens They were playing the Saints and Ed Reid was out of retirement.

I could sneak up and watch that game because that brother seemed to want to tie him up right there and handle him on the field with that and with that in mind. Ivory standing, you Bri, she retired, he was thinking about retiring at first last year, he is 41 years old, he signed another two year contract for 50 million dollars and he was worried about his money, let's be very clear, I appreciate the offer to be a leader. for black man, I guess he is the Riley mascot model. I don't know the leader of the black men in the field, but these brothers have made it known, you know how ironic it is that you talk about this story today, when on June 4, 1967.

Muhammad Ali said he would not go to Vietnam and Jim Brown called him up to Cleveland and sat there with Willie Davis and Bill Russell, the great Celtic champion, Bobby Mitchell, who played for the Washington club, and me and our senior, who was a three-time varsity player. of the year out of power Memorial High School in New York the great Lew Alcindor who would soon change his name to Muhammad Ali and after they found out he was elite, I mean change the name to I am Kareem abdul-jabbar and when they found out our lease Say I'm not going to be in Vietnam.

Those brothers accompanied by the black mayor of Cleveland said: "We stand with this brother. Drew Brees. You are under contempt. Old man. Stand down. I am with Shannon Sharpe because, in light of what those brothers did. That day you didn't even call to go to the Hall of Fame, go to Canton with the rest of the Klansmen and enjoy your life, but now you just ruined the idea that you wouldn't get in without the big white Asterix next to your name. Erica Savage oh, I'm coming to the cinema with a breeze and Dr. Auto now say that this is also B, what is the capital B, no, your apology is absolutely rejected with that copy and paste that presents it and for anyone who wants to read why I have not read , know why I haven't followed the NFL. in over a decade, William C wrote in million dollar sports slaves, you know, so that he even invoked them when he was responding in this interview to talk about knitting that he would never do what would never do and there to talk about the world.

Second War, you know, we have a lot of black veterans in all of our families. I'm also a veteran and I'm thinking about the black veterans who came home and one of the brothers said they were an attack but also that they were in Lynch and then I'm thinking about the black veterans who came home and were absolutely excluded from the GI Bill and they weren't able to come home and enjoy some of the benefits of being proper veterans. Colleagues rate them as correct veterans. The brothers and sisters were able to enjoy themselves, so Drew Be Drew Brees showed off his butt.

They caught him and they know that he is not welcome on any front, especially in the black community, when a capital B is any type of leadership and what Dr. Carr talked about retiring him, it's about time he did it . Can I say one more thing? Sure, I just thought of something, sure, I just wanted to say to Dr. Echo Carr's point about being below contempt Malcolm Jenkins, why are you crying, okay, that's why joining these white people with you crying with Drew Brees is talking because he is a white supremacist because he doesn't value your black life, don't let them. see you sweat like this you can leave no you have no reason to be awake now crying that's why you need to be angry you should be angry and I sympathize with your pain and your trauma over that but it shouldn't come to a I'm surprised that this man who is sitting there, like you said, be your brother in the field and just despise your black life, may you and your black family's life cut the tears and you need to show a little more and do this. man, I respect you because he's clearly not doing well right now.

I don't need to say anything, but the bottom line is that sharp running back Shanta fell today to Martellus Bennett, if you haven't seen Martellus Bennett's timeline on Twitter, go check it out. You know he was really overwhelmed today, we'll have him on the show next week. The man spoke a number of truths, but it's surprising when these white kids want to tell us about their grandparents' fights, they want to ignore the fact that we. We had grandparents, uncles and great-grandfathers who fought, but when they returned they were not treated as heroes, they would be treated as if they were enemies.

We had grandparents and great-grandparents who fought against the Germans who fought against the people of Italy who fought. the fascists who fought the nazis still and when the nazi prisoners of war who were put in cars in front of the black troops and there were race riots at depot train stations across the country when they came back from fighting oh yeah the white soldiers and the soldiers were not happy at all to see black men in their uniforms black soldiers dru beers a certain draw brees were lynched in their uniform there were black members who were veterans people like medgar evers who were shot to death by white supremacists yes black people fought for this country and see draw when you want to make it clear how patriotic your grandparents were, Shane becomes more patriotic than fighting for a country that doesn't love you, there is nothing more patriotic than fighting for a country that looks at you as second rate or third class. citizen of a country that puts Nazi prisoners of war before you, so next time one of you white boys wants to give us a lesson, a petty lesson about patriotism, punch him in the ass, read the Jackie Robinson book.

I never did it, mmm, the same. Jackie Robinson, who they tried to court-martial in El Paso, Texas, because he stood up to white supremacy, yes, TMT, years. I made a movie starring Andre Braugher, the same military veteran member of Jackie Robinson who wrote in his book that he would never tell. the pledge of allegiance or defending the flag or watching the national anthem because he knew exactly where white people thought about him, who titled the book about him. I've never done it because he said that's the case, if there's a black person that's not free then I've never done it, you'll think twice next time because you'll sit here and stand up and then praise that flag waving and everything it means and I will never understand your ass.

I will never make that mistake again. I bet you will. think twice when you go to the White House again taking pictures with Donald and Melania, yes it will be a really interesting dressing room in New Orleans and trust me there won't be a second line, well it could be a second line because it could be the second line for the funeral of your career. I'm just saying Komm assistant Maris Field, she created, of course, these headsets and this virtual reality hits you right here. Fantastic, the headphones, of course, 360 degrees 4D, it's an incredible sound. In addition to the VR headset that you see here, if you open it, slide your phone directly into it, you can see comedy content and others, if you know that you are in videos of that level, it is really very good.

Great, all this created by this sister, black owned people, go see a quiet comedy set in this cold right here. RM VIP 2020 RM VIP 2020 and you can actually get it and of course using that code as part of the earnings comes back to our program. It's what we do, Black businesses help Black businesses grow and prosper to come together and so we certainly appreciate the partnership with Senator Cory Booker. Yesterday, Kentucky Senator Rand Paul stood in the way of passing and an anti-lynching bill, get this, the idea that we wouldn't take the issue of lynching seriously is an insult, an insult to the senator Booker, to Senator Tim Scott and to me and to all the senators past and present who have understood that this is part of the great stain on American history to suggest that anything other than pulverizing someone to the point that the coffin would be closed except the heroism and courage of Emmett Till's mother in suggesting that a lynching would only be a lynching if someone's heart was ripped out and produced and shown to someone else is ridiculous and on this day the day of George's funeral Floyd on this day a day that should be a morning mr. president in 2018, the Senate unanimously passed bipartisan anti-lynching legislation that I proudly introduced with the only other Black members of this body, Senator Cory Booker and Senator Tim Scott, it was a historic moment, marking the first time in the history of our country that the federal anti-lynching government -The United States Senate had passed legislation on lynching.

It passed again by unanimous consent in 2019. Senator Paul is now trying to weaken a bill that already passed. There is no reason for this. There is no reason for this. Senator Paul's amendment would impose a greater burden. on lynching victims then it is currently required under federal hate crimes laws there is no reason for this there is no reason other than the cruel and deliberate obstruction of a day of mourning for mr. president in February 2019, this organization did something historic and I don't want to get excited. I'm raw this week, but I stayed here calmly, we cried and talked about the hundreds of years, more than a century, sorry for the effort. approve legislation proposed and defeated time and time again in this body because it is segregationists and how proud I was that at a time when partisanship is high in this country we managed to get 100 senators together in one voice to approve this Exactly the same bill because there are good people in this body on both sides and we were righting a

wrong

in history and no one in this body needs a sermon about lynchings and how horrible it is for everyone in this body of horse racism and they believe that this violence is unfair, there are friends of mine here unanimously, we passed that legislation, we made history in this war and that's why I'm confused, okay, this is what I find very interesting, Derek, this is a sponsored bill by Senator Carla.

Harris Senator Cory Booker, or Senator Tim Scott, is Eric Harris, was previously approved in the Senate. What the chamber did was the chamber changed the name. HeCongressman Bobby Rush wanted Emmett Till's name to be on this bill, which is why Tinder is considered center. Tim Scott, tweeted that, well, you. I know there are a couple of ways we're going to move it forward here, he said there are a couple of ways this bill can be approached and this is what he said. I want our anti-lynching bill passed as much as anyone and I. I am disappointed that Senator Paul is holding up the bill in the Senate even though we have already passed it twice in recent years, but let's not forget that there is another route for it to become law for a year, the House established the Senate bill already passed. they just change the name and send it back to the president of the Senate.

Pelosi can still call a vote on the original Senate anti-lynching bill and send it to the President for his signature. Let's do this one way or another. Here's the whole thing. Derick Mitch McConnell. You could also just bring it to the floor, but you won't, but you wrote, so here's the deal, okay, so it's there, so if the bill is that, first of all, symbols do matter, the Symbolism matters, which is why the bill is named after Emmett Till. It's so bad why not just Mitch McConnell bring Rand Paul's pass to the floor? It goes to the president.

Well, the same way you asked that question, I wanted to reproduce the original bill that everyone agreed on, and so why was that exactly what? I was reading a moment ago, I read why Paul was holding up the buildup and what he was saying is that it's written too broadly, so I'm wondering what the question is, what's the legend here on this bill, anyone? could be literally closed and then thought. oh, I'm surprised, no, that's it, Senator Rand Paul is lying, let me explain. You again, Derek, and I'll say it slowly so you can understand, no, no, I'll say it very slowly so you can understand it properly, like this which is a lobby to fully explain to you that you are an Omega, so I must say it and say it slowly and I could and might need to show photos.

I'm not going to show photos too so you can understand them. Congressman Bobby Rush was counted. Bobby Rush said I think Emmett Till's name should be on this. That's what he said. Very good point. What I have to do is approve it, but Senator Rand Paul now is just bringing up all the other stuff about it. Rob then I have nothing to do with anything, yeah, so he's just trying to put on a show, but he remembers who his dad is, yeah, not his dad. His father was also the only one who voted against and gave the Congressional Gold Medal to Rosa Parks.

I mean, this is who we are, this is what Rand Paul, by my calculations, is doing, he's just signaling to people that I'm still with you, I'm not. I know when he will run for election, but this seems like a pure political stunt. I think it will be approved. This helps him get in the news and he is fighting camel hair. She is fighting Cory Booker. It's sad that he used this right now to do that, but. I think this is all a political trick. I think it will pass. You know, it'll probably stay with him until he's under his name.

I just think people are doing political theater, particularly Rand Paul, because he just wants to be Rand Paul. Rand Paul. does this is why people don't like him in the Senate, including Republicans, who will actually tell you that behind closed doors, I mean they won't say it out loud, but behind closed doors most of them will tell you that they don't like it when it's very simple, how about Sarah? How about the Scottish Senator show some guts and say Mitch McConnell absolutely brings the bill to the floor? I think you know when to move on. No, I think about it again.

I think it's political theater. I think that's what's happening. here you see RAM. I'll try to slow this down because really the only attention he gets is when he does things like this to get his name in the paper, but I find it very sad that it's taken us 64 years to get here. like it's not common sense that lynching is an issue like no one should be against this, but you know, it brings me to what else there was news this week where Donald Trump had talked about wanting to convert an aunt into a domestic terrorist, but the plan is that classified domestic terrorism, so I don't understand this delay, that's not a word I just made up.

What is happening in this country where we are delaying issues of Equality, by dragging our feet on issues of equity. bill that needs to be passed is very simple and if anyone has any wit about it, they should just say this needs to go to the floor and stop using the issue of race to create political theater, but instead use this bill to show unity in Congress says we will no longer tolerate racism in America right now he is lynching right now everyone has been deployed, he was blessed, he was less, he was worse, he was not when it was actually a murder, so when we started Let's talk about this lynching, you meet Lynch again and you murdered both of them you're still dead well I'm a man you sound a lot you sound a little confused I'll just make sure but I think when you look at this we shouldn't use it for political purposes theater but let me tell you that The most important thing we need to do to get this passed is that it's more historic because what we really need to do is focus on real reforms, particularly at the state level, with policing, we focus on reforming mass incarceration, which has to happen, These are things that can, should happen, so I want to make sure that we both get through this, we're going to get through this, the real fight will come when we really fight for these, when we fight for these reforms. or general protections that we need and I too need to bring back the Fourth Amendment and I can tell you who is going to stand in the way of all that oh of course the current United States and if you want to filter be sure to join our bring to the funk fan club every dollar you give us supports our daily digital transport daily digital show that keeps it black and real like roamingmonk unfiltered supports Roland Martin's daily unfiltered digital program by going to Roland Martin at filter com you can make this happen folks the Labor market unexpectedly reverses free fall in May when employers brought back millions of workers after pandemic-induced layoffs.

The unemployment rate fell to 13 to 13.3% from 14.7 percent in April, although it is still higher than any other Previous post-war recessions and everything Donald Trump quickly ran out to boast about the deals Work rates remained far below normal, and the story of black unemployment is even more serious. The overall blood unemployment rate for blacks is sixteen point eight percent for black men. 16 percent for black women at 17.5% all right now play the video but this is amazing what happened today now they thought the number would be a loss of nine million

jobs

and it was a gain of almost three million jobs, no one has seen anything.

I think it was amazing in a couple of ways. Number one. The numbers are fantastic and this leads us to a long period of growth. We will have the largest. We will once again have the largest economy in the world. Nothing like that and I think we are going to have some very good months. I think we are going to have a very good August, a very good July, but a spectacular September can be spectacular, but a spectacular October, November and December, and next year will be one of the

best

. Have I ever had economically like I said, Team Trump was so excited that they sent out this press release touting that this is bad news for Joe Biden, they're trying to spin that black numbers perish in art if you send the email and I said, friend. it's real she said well they didn't increase in large numbers I said no the black unemployment rate increased yes or no he refused to answer the question the answer is yes he joined this right now bingo Dajjal or an economist senior and Sooner for American Progress Christian Brody, dean of the Dillard University College of Business and dr.

Howard University economist William Spriggs, uh, well, I'll start with you again. The White House will not go out of its way to spend these figures. Can they spend their way out of what this means for black people? They can't spend their way out of what this means for black people. of what it means for blacks that the unemployment rate has increased. I mean, you know, the little silver lining is that last month we set a record for the lowest proportion of black men holding down jobs, so we went up a little bit from that and black women had fallen below half of black women who had their jobs, it is now a little over 50%.

I mean, that's the

best

they can do, but for the economy as a whole, as you said, we are still at a record level of unemployment and, more importantly, if we continue this pace, we will still make it to November and not we will have eliminated the 20 million jobs that we lost in March and April, which by the way they revised downward, so we actually lost more jobs than has been previously reported, so this is not the pace to get back to where we were in November if that's what Kristen hopes, they swear things are great, they swear things are great again and then lo and behold, Donald Trump desperately wants to make progress on the economy.

He wants to give the impression that he is the savior of black people, he tweeted the other day that no president passively, with the exception of Lincoln, has done more for black people, they keep touting the number, but here is the problem: the unemployment rate of blacks started going up last year, isn't that a wonderful thing for us if you look at March, the number was 6.7%, April 16.7% and then slightly up to 16.8, it went down for others from April to May for everyone except us, how can that be a wonderful? thing for black people, especially those who are between 16 and 19 years old.

I'm where the rate is 34.9%, it's only higher for Hispanics, at 37.4%. That's not a wonderful thing for us. Bingo Bom Llamas is here again, the white house they are promoting everything. We're going to have incredible growth in the second quarter, third quarter, fourth quarter, we're going to have enormous growth, explosive growth, if there were drug testing in the White House, the biggest thing they're missing is that the reason why the one we're in This mess is we're in a public health crisis and even today we're still seeing higher kovat cases, we're seeing higher death rates, so we've reopened the economy and then they have another break.

Second wave of things like that, if that's going to happen, that will affect the economy again, so we can't talk about the second quarter, third quarter, end of the year without talking about the coca crisis. Bubinga, also, again, they can keep trying to try to fool us. about this, how great and wonderful this is for black people, as if black unemployment isn't twice as many white deaths anyway, and this is something we've seen throughout history that makes good economics, the poor economy has always doubled and In fact, the only time it went down a lot was last month when the rate was about one point, but the reason is that the white rate had gone up a lot and then the other thing that We have been talking about essential jobs.

Many of these essential jobs are disproportionately African American, but they are low-paying jobs with no benefits and are on the front lines of the risk of the Kovach crisis, but this month it really starts to pick up again. from 1.2 to 1.3 5, so it's actually getting worse for African Americans, we see it relatively and that's the important thing with the bill, understanding these numbers, it's very easy to spin the numbers any way you want , but too often the mainstream media isn't really focused on what this means for African Americans and so when Trump says, oh, I'm doing amazing for black people, people just accept it instead of hiding, well , and the danger in the numbers is that we lost another 400,000 jobs locally.

The government and blacks are overrepresented and state and local governments. This is another sign that state and local governments don't have enough money to make it to the end of the year. They are making budgets for next year because they have to balance. their budgets are already planning for austerity they are already figuring out how they can make cuts so we don't have a deficit next year next year means their next fiscal year which means this fall so what we're having is that in the fall Because Senate Republicans refused to do anything about House approved hero Zach, we are not going to get enough money for state and local governments to protect state and local investment and infrastructure and, most importantly, these cuts to the infrastructure of education means that it is going to bealmost impossible to open schools in the fall and if we don't open schools in the fall it will be impossible for women to return to the workforce Christian I'm sitting here while Rasmussen just released his daily presidential tracking poll. shows that blacks probably approve of Donald Trump's job voters don't get over 40% who the hell are they talking to I'm not really sure who the blacks are that approve of Donald Trump's job and I can't imagine who they are looking at again before the numbers I'm seeing with these unemployment rates, I can't imagine who they are, no one that I know, I can't imagine being good, this is not me, this is what is obvious again, he continued speaking on the news today . conference about what's best for black people is the economy, folks, do you have that clip where they even asked him about it?

If not, they have let me know so we can play, but Benga is him again. Trump Donald Trump has this idea that because the stock market is doing so well, things are great for black people. Do you pay any attention to the homeownership rate? Do you pay any attention to the wealth inequality gap? And today he stood there to tout what he's done for HBCUs, but is it also the fact that a black college graduate still earns less than a white high school graduate? We see so many disparities on the educational scale and there are so many reasons to, you know, being a minister, start talking about wealth. and cappen how that has gotten worse and also how since the Great Recession African Americans have not been able to recover, it took 11 years for unemployment rates to drop to 5.5 percent, as dr.

Brody was mentioning and it's one of those things where at every level there will always be disparities and the disparities don't close, so when he talks about this, the best thing for African Americans is to just eat. I don't use this phrase, but he Basically, he is lying, obviously, he is lying a lot, I understand that they say that the mainstream media we can tell lies, so probably the problem is that this is what we have to go ahead and say it because it misrepresents the erroneous statement. Let him know that lying is lying, well, he is doing it. above you're making it up so I was one of the first people in the mainstream to say he was a liar, everyone else tried to respond I'm not a liar he's a liar definitely Chris the second big one being Christie go ahead.

I'll just say that I was going to say something worse than that, but the problem is that he's just talking nonsense and that's a problem that the media has with that, that it doesn't make any sense and that none of the numbers are good, even if we don't talk of African Americans, thirteen point three percent unemployment is something we haven't seen since the Great Depression, it's a horrible number, nothing to celebrate and it literally stood there today and said it at home, Chris before.go play it who said if you see the use, go ahead, areas of the United States will be my focus, it will be a great focus because it is taking care of itself, but we have to help that very vulnerable area, they are vulnerable, it is not right and we.

We are helping them and have helped them in the past, everyone says Opportunity Zones reform criminal justice, no one has ever done it for the black community, what President Trump has done, think about it, historically small black colleges and universities that They would come here for money every year, every year, for many, many years, after three years, I said, why are you doing this? Why do you keep coming here? They said because we come. I said, won't you get a long-term deal so you don't have to come? The principal of one of the most respected universities selected me, sir, we are like beggars every year, we have to come to Washington and ask for money.

I told him he should have a long-term contract and we signed a long-term agreement so they wouldn't. I don't have to come I'll miss them I told him I miss them I met him but the first year I didn't think anything about it - the second year I said that's strange why are you here and then the third year no It's been so long, the same people, the directors of the small historically black colleges and universities, 44 people, maybe a little more than that, a little less than that sometimes, but after three years I said what are you doing, they said the last administration didn't do anything for us. before that didn't do anything for them, so I'll do it, so we did the opportunity zones with Senator Tim Scott.

It's been fantastic and, by the way, it's one of the big unknowns because the unspoken opportunity zones is one of the most incredible success stories ever seen in terms of inner city neighborhoods and in terms of unemployment of blacks, Hispanics and Asians. Opportunity zones. You should write some stories about Opportunity Zones. Billions of dollars of private money are being invested to put people to work for money. which they've never done before, so it's been really fantastic. I think the appropriate phrase that Christians called is that, so I just want to say that on March 27th, I'm president, Trump signed the Cares Act into law which provided two trillion dollars of that fourteen point three billion went to higher education. , 10% of that to HBC years, so I'll say that, but at the same time you have to think about what the discrepancy is and when you think about the fact that seventy-five point four percent of full-time university students per first time at HBCUs they received Pell Grants versus forty-three point two percent at PWI, okay, that's a measure of income inequality and therefore more is definitely needed, right?

I admit that yes, he gave the money, but certainly more too, let's be clear: bill Congress, the bill you cited, thank you, credit goes to Congressman Bobby Scott, who chairs the House Inn and Labor Committee of Representatives and yes, he agreed to sign it, that's what happened here, and when you listen to it, the bills are also there and they talk about all the opportunity zones. I'm still trying to wait for the father of the program. What is really done? I have not seen anything. It's like his claims about medications that can cure coatings and you know, he says. he takes one of them, so we rarely see true positive results from that type of experiment because you're moving the chess pieces around to avoid paying taxes, so it's very difficult to find meaningful results from that and Binga, he said. the problem will just sort itself out no the reason we have good numbers now is because of the concerns acted out because of all the lobbying at work by activists and people passed out and you know the policy makers but I want to go back to the topic.

Point out my Opportunity Zones because I've been writing about them for the last two years and what he said didn't make sense because the program isn't actually implemented yet and it won't really start until 2021, so there's no way. that could really work or something, but the other problem is that the money goes to the rich because you have to have capital gains to invest in places and that's why he talked about city centers, but there are a lot of disadvantaged communities of communities rural. at all times, so we talk nonsense again and that's why we report you, friends.

I appreciate it. I don't think there has ever been a time in mainstream media where three black economies were all together talking at the same time, that's what happens when you own your own show folks, I appreciate it so much thank you quiet cek comedy for partnering with us, this is a marriage rant as a creator, innovator, founder of this company, she of course designed these three, these 360 ​​degree 4d headsets that are absolutely incredible.

NFL players stood up and posted this video today and weighed in on what is happening with George Florida and the need to protest. It's been ten days since George Floyd was brutally murdered a few terms ago we need to ask you to listen to your players what it would take for one of us to be murdered by police brutality read in fiber stores if I were George for that what what if I were for us if I were George fluent I'm Jewish I'm Brianna I'm Amara I'm for me right now take one more I'm Walter Scott I'm Michael Brown I'm Samuel the kids I have Frank smart not fit for wife Jordan Baker we won't be silenced we're serving to peacefully protest shouldn't take that long, so in the name of football, this is what we, the players, would like to hear.

We condemn racism and the systematic oppression of black people. The National Football League is a little

wrong

and silent and our players are not protesting peacefully. We believe that black lives matter, black lives matter, black lives, after a lot of criticism, because the NFL didn't immediately share that video, they finally did and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell just posted this video okay my mailbox look at a difficult time for our country in particular by the people. In our country, first my deepest condolences, families of George Floyd Brianna Taylor Ahmad, our Bri and all the families who have suffered police brutality.

We, the National Football League, condemn racism and the systematic oppression of Black people. We, the National Football League, admit that we were wrong for not listening. to NFL players early and encourage everyone to speak out and protest peacefully. We, the National Football League, believe that black lives matter. I personally protest with you and I want to be part of the much-needed change in this country. Without black players, there would be no National Football. The league and the protests across the country are emblematic of the centuries of silence, inequality and oppression of Black players, coaches, fans and staff.

We are listening, I am listening and I will reach out to the players who have raised their voices and other people about how we can improve. and move forward for a better and more United and if there is no family, oh, that was special. Kaepernick is still being windy so here's my thing with the National Football League, you guys being racist and the fact that Roger Goodell came out and released this statement. Great, thanks for doing it, but my problem is that I want to see Colin Kaepernick on a team because Colin Kaepernick was peacefully protesting, he didn't bother anyone, he just walked on the field and took a knee, they ostracized him, so how can we wait? the NFL must keep their word if they say they respect peaceful protests when what they have shown us is that they do not, instead they align themselves with the notions of white supremacist ideology because when people try to peacefully protest they are excluded.

So it sounds great, it's good optics, but don't tell me what you're going to do, show me what you're going to do. I agree, I would just add, I would say it shows the power of what we have when we stand up. when we fight and no it's not enough but we just went back a year ago and you saw Roger Goodell saying black lives matter for some reason in America saying it's controversial to just say black lives matter and then said that and that's going to piss off a lot of people that are so-called NFL fans that just want to see us shut up and dribble, just throw a ball, whatever they want to say, so I want to acknowledge that he said it and now I want to show it to the players and I want to to talk to the players again pressure him to do more you have the power not them since you said you were right without black players no one watches the nfl you don't have an nfl there is nothing there so acknowledge , go brilliant, continue to use it well, what?

Wendy said okay, the bottom line of the NFL is undeniably racist and to me the NFL is going backwards in terms of race relations because we now have fewer black coaches than we had, so who do we blame for that? That and all those Republicans on voting and funding? hours, I would say that's it, you can't vote, that would be the bottom line, but I'm not going to say, I'm not going to say, everyone we forced, a big announcement, they are because 32 NFL owners, 31, what have we done. back, we've gone backwards, yeah, Derek Adair really agrees with this, like racism sees no boundaries, it's bipartisan, it's right now, I mean, we can go to the west coast, take all that high tech and he's super liberal, go see what the diversity is. on his board, he seesLet's see what their inclusion is, you'll see it will look the same as on the east coast, it doesn't look any different down south, they could stand a tough day, talk different, everyone is nicer to you, but when you look at how things are made, there's not much change, so oh yeah, look, listen, so this is what I want to see.

This is what I talked about today. Look, I don't want my humanity to be a partisan issue and right now it is. and the reward of the right is that the left tends not to speak up enough, so I want to include them in any bipartisan agreement where our humanity is respected across the board and this stops happening, well, guess what right, first of all, that's not the case when you have a Republican standing in the way of the anti-lynching bill, that's not the case when you have Republican senators saying nothing about Donald Trump's absolutely abhorrent behavior when it comes to these troops federals, it doesn't say anything when these republicans stand there and say nothing and when you look at how this man is disrespecting the military, how he puts them at his disposal but then criticizes his people like general mattis or general Kelly or whoever someone else when they get angry then I'll call out the republicans and democrats but here's what I do know those in power right now are not doing their job sitcom cek dot-com by associating with us this is a rant matrimonial as a creator, innovator, founder of this company, she, of course, designed these three, these 4d. 360 degree headphones that are absolutely amazing, we have a partnership with them, friends, if you bought these headphones, use the promo code RM VIP 2020 RM VIP 2020 I'm just going to see the calm like Cee K calm, make sure watch it and we thank you for partnering with us be sure to join our mastermind the fan club every dollar you give us supports our daily digital shuttle the daily digital show here that keeps it black and real like unfiltered rolling vodka supports Roland Martin unfiltered. daily digital program going to Roland Martin calm without filter you can make this possible okay friends let's talk about sports and the world of sports is very involved in the aftermath of what happened to George Floyd Stephen Jackson of the 14 years of the NBA very good friends, they even call George Florida his twin because they look so similar.

Carving has been talking in Los Angeles. The Lakers spoke as a team. Go to my house. Please Lebron James posted this. If you are not with us, we are not with you. "Everyone, first of all, the NBA has been talking, the NFL, you all have been talking, it was quite interesting that Gregg Popovich, only two NBA teams have not issued a statement, but Gregg Popovich actually issued a statement that he actually spoke out loud and so far it's the Spurs what stands out to me is that we all see this police violence and racism and we've seen it all before, I go to my iPad but nothing changes that's why these protests have been so explosive, but without Leadership and understanding of what the problem is will never change and white Americans have avoided considering this problem forever because it has been our privilege to be able to avoid it.

It also has to change now that the New York Knicks are the only team in the NBA. who haven't released a statement, what they sent internally was a joke that haunts many of the Knicks final players. I'm trying to figure out why the hell they don't say something now, today, Tiger Woods dropped This statement. is what he wrote my heart goes out to George Floyd, his loved ones and all of us who are suffering right now. I have always had the utmost respect for our law enforcement, they trained so diligently to understand how, when and where to use force, it is shocking.

The tragedy clearly crossed that line. I remember the Los Angeles riots and learned that education is the best way forward. We can make our points without burning down the very neighborhoods we live in. I hope that through constructive and honest conversations we can build a safer, unified society. Hmm, I can. Don't wait to hear how Bryant from ESP and you have to salute, of course, the author of several books that I'mI'm going to read them in a second, okay Howard, first of all, take it away, tiger, well, first thing and I saw you post The tiger's visit this afternoon, the first thing I saw was the second second square, which led me to think about why it is so important to constantly protect. law and a quarter or criticizing them if you don't understand you don't look for anything we talk about when there is responsibility to deal with what happened immediately, you address the violation, you address exactly what happened, but here, when you address with the police there are always so many, but qualify and it talks about how much, fortunately, all these different passions that you have to go through when really the question is simple, basic responsibility, arrest the perpetrators, charge them, try them and instead, I hate to say it, it comes up, but almost it feels like we use racism where they use race as a kind of red herring where instead of talking about arresting these guys and going through the process because there are a lot of processes that get to accountability, instead we talk about that we have to change people's hearts and we have to abolish racism no one talks about this just do your job and arrest these officers they broke the law this explains you would arrest anyone else for breathing so others here have conceded to Napier to the Sacramento Kings announcer posted on the angry All Lives Matter tweet. many Sacramento Kings players call him a closet racist that's why the Sacramento Kings suspended him well guess what there's a new talk show open there's a new job opening to advertise for the Sacramento Kings because as a result he's been fired when you cross I'm no longer racist uh it's not a closet but again these were boogie cousins ​​and other players calling him out and the Kings had to pay attention well they have to pay attention because again when we talk about this let's remember something. about the NBA and about sports in general, why do we talk about sports differently than we do any other industry, because it's so dominant, because the workforce is predominantly run by African Americans, so they have something to say and especially in the NBA when you're dealing with an 80% black league and real superstar players who have incredible levels of influence, do they have a say and when do they exercise their opinion?

I'm actually watching that Donald Sterling doctor, it's a Chris Paul documentary about kwibi right now, yeah, what happens when they work out? their power when they decide to say something, you have to listen and that's why this industry is different. What's also interesting is that the NFL has been under heavy criticism because of the statement they put out all along that they would do it. have white ball Colin Kaepernick out of the NFL this is what they sent the NFL family is deeply saddened by the tragic events in our country the protesters' reactions to these incidents reflect the pain, anger and frustration that many of We feel, while our deepest condolences go out with the family of Mr.

George Floyd and those who have lost loved ones, including the families of Miss Brianna Taylor of Louisville in Louisville, Mr. Amato, our Barry, the cousin of Tracy Walk of the Detroit Lions, they have other things there from NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, you can read it or friends on social media, if you go to that tweet and read the comments below, they vilified him . because the reality is that this is the internal failure of all this small talk, there is still a white ball about Colin Kapernick, who four years ago took a knee for this very reason for this very issue and on top of that you are going to publish that statement without mentioning to the police. at all, how are you going to bring that up?

He just died alone, he died because of racism, no, he died because the police killed him and that's what I mean with this kind of eight absurdities of real events, why is it so difficult? to avoid Baxton, I mean literally nowhere here no no no no, of course, I think the only one was, I think, Adam Silver, the NBA commissioner, issued a statement that actually mentioned the awardee, but nobody deals with the fact that the police killed this man and So, but we understand the reason and I think these are the things that really need to be talked about about the business relationships in these sports that have with these things also the fear or once , as we saw with Beyonce in Miami, as we thought with the Cleveland Browns as we saw with the st.

Louis Rams with his hands up is useless in Ferguson, if you openly criticize the police they will come after you like st. Louis Police Union went after the Rams trying to discipline those four players, although we also have Steve, one of the ones who has a business relationship, but the other part as well is that they don't want the criticism and I think where that really is. What affects black people the most is what they really appreciate about equality is that you, as a black consumer, you, as a consumer of the NFL, are not as important as the white fan base, so we feel like we're going to offend you. .

I actually challenged the police, so we have to follow this line here, we have to let them know that we care so that they don't go out and kneel and demonstrate and do things to disrupt business, but at the same time we won't do it by pointing out that We're not going to say exactly what happened because we don't want to offend the police and we don't want to offend our target. Should take a page from the injuries we've also seen players being active. involved and that's what I mean, and this is, you know, I think if you start talking about, you start talking about colin kaepernick and others, but look at this here, these are our guys, go to my ipad, for Please, this is Jaylen Brown from the Boston Celtics Mega. fall and lead a march involved in a march I mean, these got this just you know, we just watched the Michael Jordan documentary yeah, Craig Hodges was on that team really involved this is a gym this is a completely different generation of players it's completely different generation and it is a generation that we were talking about you and I was talking about this last night is that we also have this generation of elections of 2008 with the Seminole election, fundamental moment for them and people of voting age, those kids was really interesting if That was your first choice.

Now you're 30 years old and you're seeing this very differently than we do. You believed in this promise. You believed in this post-racial America. Now you feel betrayed and what is really fascinating. This is that when you look at the protests in cities across the country, there is incredible diversity, because you have a lot of these kids of this generation who feel like, wait a minute, we thought we were here, but we're not here yet. and now they're finding out that they're not free either, these white kids for the first time in their lives are finding out that they're not free, or they're being stopped with rubber bullets and all that, which is pretty interesting here when you start. to talk about what's happening by bringing our panel here, so go ahead and bring the panel in as well.

I'll bring them. President George W. Bush issued this statement. It is a strength when protesters protected by responsible law enforcement authorities march for a better future in this The tragedy in a long series of similar tragedies raises a long-overdue question: How do we end systemic racism in our society? Howard Jamil Jamil, his former ESPN colleague Jamil Hill, tweeted that George Bush gave a much better statement on racial injustice than Tiger Woods continues to do 2020. being with the shit is fine, well, I mean, take a good look at it, but still to me, yeah, you talk about all the funny statements, you talk about who's going to come out, but the bottom line is you're not doing yourself any favors or this is Ernie the Fed, everyone else.

The word is breaking, so we'll try to fix his line. Let me bring Kellie Joseph and Dave here. Sports are a big part of what we do. Obviously, they're important to a lot of different people, but these are athletes that saying we're not going to accept this, we're going to use our power and we're going to use our voices, they're not staying silent, well, yeah, I mean, I think You know if we're really being honest here, I think what we saw with the Clippers, as we mentioned before, with their ability to take out an owner even with the threat of not playing, so I think until we have players that are willing to to say that we are not going to go out into the field, the bread and circuses are going to stop and until we have a community committed to that effort to say that I am not going to cross that line, that I am not going to use this as my opportunity to start my path to an NFL career o Surprisingly, a baseball career or a basketball career is the type of unity as a community that will be required to give influential individuals in the sports community the ability to drive a message home to the only way that reaches the majority of Americans,that it is with dollars and that it is for your personal comfort because we know that sports are in many ways an extension of people's personal happiness and it is an extension of people's monetary resources and it is also an extension of the tapestry of America and when that ends we are forced to listen and, as I said before, I do not think it is a coincidence that we are seeing this strong uprising at a time when sports cannot be found on any television dial.

Kelly, which also says that this earth says enough is enough. just telling me to plate play ball and shut up, they're saying you're going to listen to me. I absolutely have something to say. The thing about this is that we have a history of our athletes speaking out, it was just a period of This doesn't happen even when new athletes say, "Hey, I have money, it's not my problem anymore" or it's just not in my space anymore. , but now it's in your face and now athletes feel empowered to say something again, so you know. Ali, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, LeBron James Nano and I can think of a couple more that I've seen on TV since the Black Lives Matter movement emerged.

Torrey Smith of the Baltimore Ravens, someone I think of, but again, these athletes have a voice and just like us, they are citizens; They're American to write, more importantly, a lot of them are black men, yeah, so it would be hard for us to think that they're not going to say anything right now because now with everything. going on and what we've seen not even they say I understand it, although I feel like they have an obligation to talk, uh, they've got it on them, they're going to howl Davon real quick. I think the proof is because we think of someone.

Like Muhammad Ali, he was willing to stand up to the American imperialist project, you know neocolonialism, and he lost three of the best years of his career because he was willing to stand up to that way, I think when it comes to this topic and I think the other mention from your other panelists is that the ability of athletes currently to challenge the Fraternal Order of Police, which is the formal organizational political entity that many of these companies fear, will be the test of the extent and I mean, your panel knows that many of them will talk about their sympathies for George Floyd, but they don't really talk about issues related to policing and how they should be challenged, so that meets the power of proof that we're showing Brian. live video right now a protester is still in front of the White House, it's been 30 minutes past curfew, they're not leaving now and Howard and I are one of the last points on his side.

I think this is different, Howard. Keep saying this and I'm telling you I think people better prepare themselves, this is not going to happen after George Fleurs' funeral on Tuesday, no it's not going to end that way and I think you need to remember that a perfect storm is going to happen here, let's not forget you. you're also dealing with three years of Donald Trump three and a half years of Donald Trump you're dealing with Charlottesville you're dealing with Colin Colin Kaepernick sops you're dealing with a perfect storm you're dealing with him not being there because of the pandemic and in many ways what's going on What's happening is that you're seeing that the murder of George Floyd is kind of a springboard to the final, the final downfall of Donald Trump in many ways because when they're standing in the street, they're essentially defying an order that says, "Look, the power of the people is greater than your office" and we will see what they are going to do.

Are you willing to fight against 300 million Americans or as many as you want? I'll be out there, again, it's absolutely amazing to see what's going on and one of the things that also this might not be the last question RuPaul half an hour I was there a little bit earlier and what? What you're seeing is you're seeing black protest leaders asserting their authority over these protests and telling people that it's not weird, we're not going to give you what you want by sitting here looting, so apparently I didn't think that That was the other deal. There's also some evidence that FBI covert groups, we're white supremacists, have been telling their people to go out and get involved in these protests, that's happening too, so there's a lot of moving pieces here, Howard and not let's forget part of those moving pieces is how much of this is being manipulated by a foreign government how much of this is how much are we being manipulated here as we speak?

There's no doubt when I thought about looking at what was happening last week or last weekend, I was thinking. that how much of this is really coordinated and not that it matters too much, but I think it's important that you see that black activists took control of the movement that they believe is theirs, although when you see that happening, you will certainly be able to say that those parts mobiles collide with each other and, like I said, yeah, I mean, I think you're right, we're at a point right now where there are certain movements where things are different, they resonate in a way that they didn't before and this is one of those sticking points people understand Howard's most recent book, go to my iPad, fill out the dissenters' notes on an uneven playing field by Howard Brian Howe.
