Pearl - ＂Pearl, You've Changed？＂ How I got Here

00:00:00.400 What up guys, welcome to my coffee talks. Today I'm in a ranting mood.

00:00:04.460 So I think I'm just going to rant, even though I just made a coffee talk before this.

00:00:09.680 And I was thinking about how some of my old friends from Black YouTube,

00:00:14.600 they kind of asked me what happened to me, because some of my rhetoric around Black people has changed.

00:00:20.040 Now, for those of you that don't know, I grew up in an all-white area.

00:00:23.260 And I really never had any qualms about race. I never cared about it, never thought about it.

00:00:28.160 In fact, my mother used to say that if there was a black girl on my volleyball team or 1.00

00:00:32.800 basketball team, it would usually be about 10 white people, one black girl. 1.00

00:00:36.140 I was always friends with her.

00:00:37.820 And I think it's because I have a similar sense of humor to black people.

00:00:40.840 I don't know why, but I've always enjoyed them like at parties and I think they're funny,

00:00:45.580 right?

00:00:45.740 I think they're funny.

00:00:46.420 I think they're entertaining.

00:00:47.180 And I genuinely have a positive disposition towards them.

00:00:51.220 And that really has been my life.

00:00:53.240 you know um i had a black boyfriend when i was younger and i didn't care or see race and i think

00:00:59.560 most white people were kind of raised like this like we don't care we don't really see race until

00:01:03.960 we have to and that happened to me so this person um said i don't know what's gotten into you i know

00:01:08.760 you're not racist i'm like i'm not racist however i have some observations you know so what happened

00:01:17.240 was i i grew up in this white area um i went and i worked in sales in a completely white office

00:01:23.240 never cared, never thought about it much. Um, if I had a black boyfriend or dated someone that

00:01:29.000 was black, usually he grew up around white people. So anyways, I ended up moving to England and

00:01:37.420 England, immigration has made that city not white at all. I lived in a Muslim area. I lived, 0.98

00:01:44.460 I spent a lot of time in an African area and I lived in a pretty African area,

00:01:48.460 um because i lived in the east london and east london um like west is more british east isn't

00:01:55.580 and that's where my volleyball was so that's that's where i played so i got to know other

00:02:00.820 cultures and when i was in london i had a almost 100 black staff so um if you're in entertainment

00:02:08.960 everyone knows entertainment that's got a lot of black people in it it's kind of like personal

00:02:13.740 training like I'm into athletics a lot of black people in athletics you know it would kind of be

00:02:19.660 like saying Asians do math white people are engineers you know there's just some tropes

00:02:25.060 right and I ended up employing a hundred percent black people and this was a mistake um because

00:02:33.860 almost every not every single one it's not every black person that betrays you but the things that 0.96

00:02:41.320 happened um when I did that just would never have happened in a white area and the cope with black 1.00

00:02:48.900 people they say white people commit crime too and I'm gonna go into what happened I say no I grew

00:02:55.260 up in a white area for 20 years none of this happened I had a camera stolen I was extorted for

00:03:02.540 money I had a bunch of black people that I gave opportunities to like I one guy he was my co-host

00:03:13.640 for like a year and a half doubled his subscribers doubled them he had like 50,000 subs and when he

00:03:21.720 joined my channel and we co-hosted this show his subscriber count went up by double

00:03:27.740 he ended up calling me a racist colonizer and accused me like of trying to take footage of

00:03:45.040 black people and hold it over their heads now i'll explain what happened and it was just incredible

00:03:50.220 so i've never been a big drinker because i'm too into fitness and i threw this whiteboard party i 0.89

00:03:56.580 I love, I had a birthday party and, um, at my parties, I tell people you can give a presentation

00:04:03.100 on anything. I think this is a fun party game. You should do it if you want. And, um, you know,

00:04:09.200 sometimes the whiteboard presentations got a little like out there, sexual, whatever,

00:04:14.000 but they're kind of funny, right? Like I did presentation. I said, I'm always on the side

00:04:17.440 of the women, but men do cap about things. And today I want to talk about the things you men

00:04:22.940 cap about and i'm like money none of you're making as much money you know and i kind of went on

00:04:27.860 another guy said the types of girl you have in your rotation your number one draft pick 1.00

00:04:32.240 runner up but there's something wrong with her girl you only see once a month that's how i kind

00:04:37.480 of came up with you know if you want to see how serious a guy is about you you got to see how

00:04:41.440 often he's seeing you depending on if he has the time right because some men just um they have the 0.69

00:04:49.000 time to see you every day and see another bitch every day just depends on you know so anyways 1.00

00:04:54.320 anyways so he accused me of like setting up this whole party and like basically trying to get 0.98

00:05:01.820 footage of black people and hold it over people's heads right and it was just incredible because he 0.99

00:05:08.760 took footage from the party and used in this like youtube video he made about me and it got a ton

00:05:14.100 of views and there was just so many black people I gave opportunities to that they just kept 1.00

00:05:19.940 fucking it up another girl I would let her come on my show all the time also called me a racist 1.00

00:05:24.780 and before this I didn't care I didn't see race um I then went on a black um owned youtube network 0.98

00:05:32.420 and I had a black girl scream at me and the company never paid me right and it was just like

00:05:39.860 over and over again um another black guy that worked for me was smoking weed on the job and 0.98

00:05:45.740 telling my other editors to do less work so he wouldn't look bad I had an editor have a mental 0.89

00:05:51.420 breakdown because he was doing the work of all the black people that worked for me 1.00

00:05:54.920 and um it it was just incredible um how I would give black people opportunity after opportunity

00:06:05.060 after opportunity and they would just it's like something about black culture where they feel as

00:06:11.840 though if you're willing to be taken like women kind of have this too women feel like if you're

00:06:17.720 willing to buy a stranger drinks at the bar that you deserve to be taken advantage of if you're 0.56

00:06:23.440 willing to buy her dinner you deserve it and it's very similar to the way black people do if you're 1.00

00:06:28.240 willing to pay me when I'm doing a bad job um I like that's your fault and to some degree they're 0.99

00:06:35.480 kind of right right they do teach you not to be suckers but the one thing about black or about 0.99

00:06:40.260 white culture is we're taught to give people the benefit of the doubt and we're taught to assume 0.82

00:06:46.820 the best and we're taught to um not steal not cheat people like I have a contractor um I probably

00:06:55.720 I don't know if I should say that, but I'll just say, I put him in a position where he

00:06:59.900 has a lot of trust, um, to like, I don't want, I don't want to say too much, but he's in

00:07:08.820 a position that I have to put a lot of trust in him and I'm not even the slightest bit

00:07:14.320 worried he'd take advantage of it because he's an older white guy and they just, and 0.97

00:07:22.300 it's just incredible how we constantly talk and we shit on white men um in society like I've heard 0.98

00:07:30.240 this anti-white rhetoric for like 20 years and just my experience from being in different cultures 0.99

00:07:37.740 is that white people do the best with the most trust that you give them like a white guy could

00:07:45.520 have the key the lot like the key to your house and he would never steal it or do something with

00:07:49.800 it now there's exceptions obviously there's white people that commit white collar crimes this isn't

00:07:54.440 always and it's not always with black people right we got to look at people as individuals

00:07:58.560 however as a group um i've just never had the same problem with white people that i've had 0.56

00:08:05.720 with black people when it comes to stealing um when it comes to trying to overcharge you taking 0.95

00:08:12.900 advantage. Like I've just never really had those issues ever. So I don't know. This is just my, 0.94

00:08:22.760 so what tends to happen is white people are kind of reacting the same way women are making men

00:08:27.960 react where women have just taken advantage of men's kindness too much. They've, um, they've 0.98

00:08:34.960 taken the free dinners. They've taken the money. They've taken the kindness. They've taken this,

00:08:39.480 this this this where the white men they're the men in general right they're like I got nothing

00:08:44.640 more to give I've given you it all and I kind of got to that point with black people where I'm like

00:08:50.200 you know I've given so many of you opportunities to come on my channel um I've run a bunch of your

00:08:56.200 channels and you know the the lack of gratitude it's just um incredible and this isn't all

00:09:07.420 obviously like I had black people that worked for me that were amazing and awesome and I would

00:09:11.140 I would only say good things about but um it's not all but it's enough of them

00:09:17.380 where white people get kind of bitter um and I would say it's the same thing 0.61

00:09:21.520 with men and women where it's like a lot of the patterns that you see with women um white people

00:09:29.720 are kind of going through the same thing where we're just sick of um we're just sick of being

00:09:36.520 so nice and being taken advantage of. Um, you know, you gotta, you gotta think about it from

00:09:45.440 my position. This guy, I brought him on my channel. I paid him for a year. Um, and I invited him to

00:09:55.620 my personal birthday party and in repayment, he called me a colonizer. Um, a different person

00:10:00.740 did very similar things, stole a camera from me. Right. And the list just goes on and on and on

00:10:08.000 and on. And like, um, there's just a point where white people aren't going to fight. We just walk 0.57

00:10:15.560 away. We say, well, uh, I guess I'm going to live in a white area and I'm going to be more 0.99

00:10:21.880 discerning in the future because you can't keep, you know, you can't call people suckers for 0.60

00:10:28.260 getting taken advantage of and then be surprised when we walk away so anyways um that's just my

00:10:35.340 observations this will be my coffee talk tomorrow and if you have different observations that's

00:10:42.120 totally fine i'm not here to tell anybody what to think or how to feel so if you have different

00:10:46.840 observations let me know in the comments and i can also talk about some of the positives of black

00:10:51.680 culture i know white people like to pretend there's none i actually do think there are some

00:10:56.400 positives that you know they do better so um anyways different video different day if you

00:11:04.360 want that i'll give it like the video subscribe and i'll see you next time
