00:00:00 Did you see what happened with Carmelo Anthony?
00:00:02 Yeah.
00:00:02 Do you think that was self-defense?
00:00:03 He brought a knife to attract me?
00:00:05 I'm going to keep it real with you.
00:00:06 I brought knives to school every day.
00:00:08 I brought knives to school every day.
00:00:09 You brought knives to school every day?
00:00:10 Why?
00:00:10 I got jumped.
00:00:11 I had my nose broken.
00:00:12 I had a concussion.
00:00:13 I couldn't go to school for three weeks.
00:00:14 I've seen people my age, younger, get robbed.
00:00:16 I've seen people my age, younger, get beat up.
00:00:18 At a certain point, you have to...
00:00:20 When it comes down to you or somebody else,
00:00:22 you're always going to pick yourself.
00:00:23 Austin just asked him to move out of his seat.
00:00:26 I wasn't there.
00:00:27 Carmelo's going to be the bad guy in that picture regardless.
00:00:30 Well, he's free now.
00:00:30 He just said the bond was posted and he's home
00:00:32 and they raised $400,000.
00:00:33 Yo, then he's free.
00:00:35 I'm not really mad at it even if he did it out of malice
00:00:37 because at the end of the day, 0.82
00:00:38 being black in America is not always fun. 0.75
00:00:40 And a lot of the time in that situation, 0.94
00:00:42 whether he did it out of self-defense or not,
00:00:44 he would have went to jail.
00:00:48 What do you mean?
00:00:48 I'm not part of that.
00:00:49 Don't put me on the camera. 1.00
00:00:50 You're talking about black men and all that shit? 1.00
00:00:52 Chill with that shit, bro. 1.00
00:00:53 You know I'm part black, right? 1.00
00:00:54 I don't give a fuck what you are, 0.99
00:00:56 but you ain't got the right to speak on 1.00
00:00:57 how black men move, bro. 1.00
00:00:59 I talk about everybody.
00:01:00 I talk about everything.
00:01:03 So who could talk about black people? 1.00
00:01:08 I'm not Mexican.
00:01:10 Everybody talks about everybody.
00:01:12 Nah, keep us out your mouth, though, bro.
00:01:14 Keep it gaston.
00:01:15 You, fresh and fit, all y'all do it.
00:01:17 It's like y'all got something.
00:01:18 What did I say that you don't like?
00:01:20 Well, you said a lot.
00:01:21 You know what you said.
00:01:21 No, tell me.
00:01:22 I'm not going to go verbatim.
00:01:23 Come on, bro.
00:01:23 I'm in the industry, too.
00:01:25 You're upset about something I said,
00:01:26 but you don't know what it is?
00:01:27 I'm upset. 1.00
00:01:27 I just checked you on that bullshit. 1.00
00:01:29 You don't do it no more. 1.00
00:01:30 What's the bullshit that I said? 1.00
00:01:31 You said a lot of bullshit. 1.00
00:01:32 Can you say one thing? 1.00
00:01:34 Not verbatim.
00:01:35 All right, then you don't know what you're talking about.
00:01:36 Then you don't know what you're talking about. 1.00
00:01:38 I'll fuck with you, bro. 1.00
00:01:39 I'll fuck with you. 1.00
00:01:39 All right, fuck with you, too. 1.00
00:01:41 You don't even know what you're talking about. 1.00
00:01:42 I'll fuck with you, bro. 1.00
00:01:43 I'll fuck with you, bro. 1.00
00:01:44 Keep on your face, keep on your face, keep on your face. 1.00
00:01:46 Love speech.
00:01:47 All right, all love.
00:01:47 Love speech. 0.99
00:01:49 What the fuck is he talking about? 1.00
00:01:50 How are you upset about something you don't even know? 1.00
00:01:52 Did you hear the story that happened with Carmelo Anthony?
00:01:55 No, you haven't heard about that?
00:01:57 You don't look at the news too much.
00:01:58 Not much.
00:01:59 No, actually.
00:02:00 I can't believe anyone's heard about this.
00:02:01 No.
00:02:02 What's up, man? 0.98
00:02:05 Two kids, one black kid stabbed a white kid. 0.91
00:02:07 You didn't hear about that? 0.90
00:02:08 I heard about that, yeah.
00:02:08 Okay.
00:02:09 What are your, any thoughts about that?
00:02:10 Or is it just some news you see in Swirl?
00:02:12 It's just news that I've seen, yeah.
00:02:14 Okay.
00:02:14 You want to tell me more about it?
00:02:16 He's like an 18-year-old kid, black kid, 0.98
00:02:17 who stabbed a white guy at a track meet. 0.98
00:02:19 Oh, I have not heard about that.
00:02:20 You didn't hear about that?
00:02:21 No.
00:02:21 Okay, can you guess what happened to him?
00:02:24 I guess they caught him.
00:02:26 How much time in prison do you think he's doing?
00:02:28 What sentence do you think he's facing?
00:02:30 Well, I hope so.
00:02:32 I don't know, five years, I guess.
00:02:33 Five years?
00:02:34 Yeah, I guess so.
00:02:35 For murder, or you think only five years?
00:02:37 I don't know, so maybe more, I'm just guessing.
00:02:39 Five years is pretty light.
00:02:40 Okay, so give him, I don't know.
00:02:41 Right now, he just got out on bond.
00:02:43 This bond was lowered from a quarter million to 25,000.
00:02:46 And now he's home, he's free.
00:02:48 I guess how much money his family raised?
00:02:49 But since you are telling me about it,
00:02:51 I don't know, they raised maybe 10K?
00:02:54 $400,000.
00:02:56 $400,000.
00:02:56 Yeah, for people who support him.
00:02:58 I know there were two sides of the story, right?
00:03:00 The first was that it was an unprovoked attack.
00:03:03 The second was that people are now saying, you know, the initial aggression,
00:03:06 like there was some aggression on both sides.
00:03:08 So I don't know.
00:03:09 I don't know if there's evidence on that.
00:03:11 So I don't know.
00:03:12 Well, you're looking like you're going to the gym right now.
00:03:13 Have you ever brought a knife to the gym to stab somebody?
00:03:16 I have not brought a knife to the gym.
00:03:18 Any hate crime or anything like that,
00:03:19 I feel like the eye for eye punishment needs to be implemented again.
00:03:24 I don't know if that sounds kind of barbaric.
00:03:25 You mean self-defense?
00:03:26 Yeah, like, no, but like eye for an eye. 1.00
00:03:27 Like, you stab me, bitch, I'm going to stab you? 1.00
00:03:30 Yeah, yeah, I don't know. 1.00
00:03:31 And that person should get stabbed. 0.99
00:03:33 That one singular story of this terrible thing that happened 1.00
00:03:36 over a fucking biscuit and gravy, that's fine. 0.99
00:03:38 Okay, that's fine. 1.00
00:03:39 What about the guy who got deported with no crime
00:03:42 and is not going to come back?
00:03:43 Like, or the fact that Donald Trump was hot mic
00:03:45 saying he wants to start deporting natural citizens.
00:03:47 I would love to have a singular talk about one conversation
00:03:49 if that story wasn't being used by the wrong people 0.98
00:03:51 in order to push a bullshit narrative. 1.00
00:03:54 Yes, one person got killed over a knife fight that was bullshit. 1.00
00:03:56 Happens here too sometimes. 1.00
00:03:58 But let's start talking about some of the shit that really matters. 0.99
00:04:00 Like, for example... 0.99
00:04:01 You don't think that matters?
00:04:02 I think it's being blown out of context.
00:04:04 I think that when we take a singular story like that
00:04:06 and blow it up, 0.99
00:04:07 then we're not looking at the shit that's really happening. 0.99
00:04:08 For example, we're back in a trade war again. 0.99
00:04:10 That means people are going to have a shit ton more problems
00:04:13 than one kid is going to have right now.
00:04:15 And you know what?
00:04:16 He deserves to go to jail.
00:04:17 Let's call it out.
00:04:18 You want him to call?
00:04:18 It's fine.
00:04:18 Let's call it out.
00:04:19 He deserves to go to jail.
00:04:20 He's not innocent.
00:04:21 He deserves to go to jail.
00:04:21 Fair enough.
00:04:22 Got it.
00:04:22 But World War III, the tariff war,
00:04:23 is more important to talk about.
00:04:25 Because that's actually something that impacts us
00:04:26 all actively right now.
00:04:28 Do you think he deserves the $400,000
00:04:30 that was raised through GoFundMe?
00:04:31 I think that if people decided that they relate to him
00:04:35 and they decided that they want to help his family out,
00:04:39 then that's a personal decision that they made.
00:04:41 So whether or not he deserves it isn't up to me.
00:04:43 It's up to the people that donated the money.
00:04:45 They gave him, you know, they helped his family out
00:04:47 because they see something that a lot of people
00:04:49 that don't look like black people don't see. 0.98
00:04:51 They see that regardless of what he does.
00:04:54 So it's like that.
00:04:57 You know, you stick together.
00:04:58 Honestly, like, like I said, bro,
00:05:00 I see people that look like me get incarcerated for everything.
00:05:03 Get incarcerated for things you ain't do.
00:05:04 Look at Khalif Browder.
00:05:05 Khalif Browder got arrested for...
00:05:07 And I was in New York.
00:05:08 Khalif Browder got arrested for beating somebody up,
00:05:10 stealing a book bag.
00:05:12 And when you take a lot of losses, you know, as a community,
00:05:14 you see things like that happen over and over,
00:05:15 time and time again.
00:05:16 You know, people going to jail for things they ain't do.
00:05:18 You don't really care if somebody did it or not.
00:05:20 Sometimes you want to...
00:05:20 So you don't care if you did it or not?
00:05:22 Me personally, nah.
00:05:24 Me personally, I don't care.
00:05:25 I don't care.
00:05:26 Because at the end of the day, bro, like,
00:05:28 objectively, I've been that kid.
00:05:29 I've been that kid that didn't do something and got booked.
00:05:32 You did that, so you did something like that before?
00:05:33 Nah, I got arrested my freshman year of high school,
00:05:35 my first day of high school.
00:05:36 I got arrested for beating up and robbing a kid.
00:05:39 I never touched, never seen him.
00:05:40 To this day, I don't know what he looked like.
00:05:41 Did you do it or you didn't do it?
00:05:43 I was on camera cutting class in the bathroom.
00:05:47 Going to the bathroom.
00:05:49 Robbery happened five, six miles away.
00:05:51 Happened to be going to the mall.
00:05:52 So, police picked me up said I matched the description
00:05:54 and I didn't match, ironically enough.
00:05:57 So, but...
00:05:59 And it's not even a malicious thing, like,
00:06:00 nothing like no hate to Austin's family.
00:06:02 It's just, when you see a system
00:06:04 take things from people that look like you 0.61
00:06:06 over and over and over,
00:06:08 sometimes somebody being home,
00:06:09 whether they're guilty or not,
00:06:10 it just feels like a win.
00:06:11 It might not be justice for real,
00:06:13 but most of the time,
00:06:14 you don't get justice in this country
00:06:16 if you look a certain way.
00:06:17 Do you see race?
00:06:19 It depends on which neighborhood, yes.
00:06:22 So, which neighborhoods do you see race?
00:06:25 I can't say really race,
00:06:27 because we have the police department
00:06:29 protecting us,
00:06:30 but at certain times in the year,
00:06:32 I feel like I see my hate on my community.
00:06:36 Yeah, do you think that there's more hate
00:06:37 towards the Jewish community now?
00:06:38 Yes, no.
00:06:45 I can't say,
00:06:46 because it's both together.
00:06:48 Are you a Hasidic?
00:06:49 Yes, I am.
00:06:50 Can I ask you,
00:06:51 do you support Israel
00:06:52 or you don't support Israel?
00:06:52 Yes, I do.
00:06:53 You do, okay.
00:06:54 So, some of them don't,
00:06:55 some of the Hasidic Jews don't.
00:06:56 Correct.
00:06:57 What's the difference
00:06:57 between those who do it?
00:06:58 Everybody has, you know,
00:06:59 in Catholic and in Christian
00:07:01 and in every community,
00:07:03 someone supports the community,
00:07:04 someone doesn't support the community.
00:07:06 So, you can't say everybody supports it, right?
00:07:09 Can I ask you a question?
00:07:10 Do you see race?
00:07:11 Do you see color?
00:07:12 No, I'm Muslim.
00:07:13 How are you going to see them?
00:07:14 I don't look at them differently
00:07:16 when I see their color.
00:07:19 You have no stereotypes at all for anybody?
00:07:20 I'm trying to not have any stereotypes.
00:07:24 Ah, I think so.
00:07:25 Okay.
00:07:25 Do you think that makes you prejudiced
00:07:26 or stereotypical or racist?
00:07:28 No, I don't think so.
00:07:29 Oh my God, I see color.
00:07:31 I love color.
00:07:32 I see race.
00:07:35 Do you see race?
00:07:36 Do I see race?
00:07:37 Yeah.
00:07:38 Okay.
00:07:39 Sure.
00:07:39 Do you make judgments off that?
00:07:42 Implicitly, yeah, I do,
00:07:43 but so does anybody.
00:07:45 Some people say they don't.
00:07:46 A lot of people sat down
00:07:47 so they don't judge anyone
00:07:48 until they meet them.
00:07:49 Well, nobody wants to believe that
00:07:51 they're making judgments like that,
00:07:53 you know?
00:07:53 Do I see color?
00:07:54 Yeah.
00:07:55 I think it's an important part
00:07:56 of anyone's identity.
00:07:57 Okay.
00:07:57 Yeah.
00:07:58 Do you make judgments off of that?
00:08:00 I don't think so.
00:08:01 I was raised to be very conservative,
00:08:03 but I, like, tried really hard
00:08:07 to unlearn a lot of them.
00:08:07 And you became an actress
00:08:07 in New York, yeah.
00:08:08 Well, I, before I moved,
00:08:10 I tried really hard to, like,
00:08:11 unlearn a lot of those, like, ideas.
00:08:14 Like what?
00:08:14 You grew up conservative Catholic?
00:08:16 Yes, I was raised Catholic.
00:08:17 Like, um, my family was very conservative.
00:08:20 My parents voted for Trump twice.
00:08:22 Well, Allah created all of us. 0.97
00:08:24 How can I see race?
00:08:26 How can I see color?
00:08:27 All that is a construct.
00:08:29 Allah created us from different parts
00:08:32 of the land.
00:08:33 He said that.
00:08:33 That's written.
00:08:34 So you don't make any judgments
00:08:35 based off of where people are from
00:08:37 or what they look like?
00:08:38 No. 0.94
00:08:39 Are you crazy? 0.99
00:08:40 Allah will make the same judgment 1.00
00:08:42 against you.
00:08:42 You don't want the same judgment
00:08:43 made against you.
00:08:44 Allah created us
00:08:46 for us to get to know each other,
00:08:48 not for us to separate
00:08:49 and be segregated.
00:08:50 As human beings,
00:08:51 we fail to understand
00:08:52 our creator.
00:08:54 It doesn't matter what color you are. 1.00
00:08:55 If you act like an asshole, 1.00
00:08:56 like, you're an asshole 1.00
00:08:57 or, like, stupid and stuff. 1.00
00:08:58 That's how I look at it. 1.00
00:08:59 I mean, there were several studies.
00:09:01 I don't remember where
00:09:02 the real big one was.
00:09:03 It was either MIT or Harvard
00:09:05 where you take specific tests
00:09:08 and it's specific A-B testing.
00:09:10 It's not,
00:09:11 do you have specific biases
00:09:13 or judgments
00:09:13 across all groups of people,
00:09:15 but, say,
00:09:16 between Christians and Jews 0.97
00:09:18 or Jews and Muslims.
00:09:20 And based off of word associations
00:09:23 or headlines
00:09:24 and things of that nature
00:09:25 and running through it,
00:09:27 and I'm sure this test is dated
00:09:28 because it's been around
00:09:29 at least 10, 15 years maybe,
00:09:32 it reveals that you may have
00:09:35 implicit biases
00:09:36 that you were not aware of.
00:09:38 I remember I took it.
00:09:40 You took this test?
00:09:40 Oh, yeah.
00:09:41 I took two different versions
00:09:43 of the test.
00:09:44 And I,
00:09:45 the first time I took it
00:09:46 was about six years ago
00:09:48 and it revealed that
00:09:50 I had a tendency
00:09:51 to relate,
00:09:53 to have more likely
00:09:55 to associate violence
00:09:56 to people of lighter skin complexions
00:09:58 than of darker skin complexions.
00:09:59 Really?
00:09:59 You reverse,
00:10:00 so you're like the opposite
00:10:00 of everyone else?
00:10:01 Yeah, well,
00:10:01 I'm a mixed person,
00:10:02 so I grew up around
00:10:03 a whole bunch of different
00:10:04 types of people
00:10:05 and I just,
00:10:06 you know,
00:10:07 and I grew up
00:10:08 in a very liberal household
00:10:09 where a lot of the violence
00:10:11 that is talked about
00:10:12 is, you know,
00:10:14 violence and acts of hate
00:10:15 conducted by people 0.99
00:10:17 of white people
00:10:18 lighter skin complexions.
00:10:20 I'm Latina,
00:10:21 but I'm also a mix.
00:10:22 I'm also a woman,
00:10:24 and so I am a victim
00:10:26 of people looking at me
00:10:28 and making assumptions,
00:10:29 observations,
00:10:29 so I do see it,
00:10:31 I observe it,
00:10:33 but I don't want to feel
00:10:37 that I am the victim
00:10:40 because of that.
00:10:42 You don't have
00:10:42 a victim mentality?
00:10:43 No.
00:10:44 Do you hate men?
00:10:45 Do you hate anyone?
00:10:46 Men?
00:10:47 Yeah.
00:10:47 No.
00:10:48 I've had bad experience
00:10:49 with not men,
00:10:50 like, relationship-wise,
00:10:51 but bad experience 0.78
00:10:53 like a pedophile
00:10:55 when I was a child, 0.52
00:10:56 but I don't.
00:10:57 Like, I never felt,
00:10:58 and so, interesting
00:10:58 because I started writing
00:10:59 about that,
00:11:00 and I've always wanted
00:11:01 to write a book,
00:11:02 but I paused on that section,
00:11:04 and two weeks ago,
00:11:05 I reopened it,
00:11:07 but I reopened it
00:11:08 not feeling bad about myself
00:11:10 and having a lot of realizations
00:11:11 that I didn't feel bad
00:11:13 about myself.
00:11:13 I felt pity for my mother
00:11:14 and felt pity for him,
00:11:16 like, shame on you
00:11:18 that you're abusing, 0.93
00:11:20 you're manipulating,
00:11:22 and your power,
00:11:23 and I feel sorry for you,
00:11:25 and, you know,
00:11:26 like, life, universe,
00:11:28 universe has a way
00:11:28 of giving you things back,
00:11:31 and I am free from that,
00:11:33 so.
00:11:34 What advice would you give
00:11:35 to people who want
00:11:36 to forget past trauma?
00:11:38 Well, I don't know
00:11:40 if you have to forget
00:11:41 past trauma.
00:11:42 I think you have to
00:11:43 dig it up,
00:11:44 look at the jewels,
00:11:45 polish the ones 0.99
00:11:46 that are dull,
00:11:48 and feel what you need
00:11:50 to feel,
00:11:51 because otherwise
00:11:52 you're just storing it away,
00:11:54 and that's how you deal
00:11:55 with your trauma,
00:11:56 like, you face it,
00:11:57 you put yourself
00:11:58 in a scenario
00:11:59 where you're that child,
00:12:00 like, if I was five,
00:12:03 or four,
00:12:04 or 14 again,
00:12:06 and just tell that child,
00:12:08 like, hey,
00:12:10 I'm here for you,
00:12:11 and you want that child
00:12:12 to be proud of who you are
00:12:13 at the current moment,
00:12:14 so vice versa.
00:12:15 It's really all about
00:12:17 going back
00:12:18 and opening the doors,
00:12:20 so that way
00:12:21 it's not about
00:12:22 closing doors,
00:12:23 I mean,
00:12:23 a lot of times
00:12:24 you'll hear people
00:12:24 saying closing the doors,
00:12:26 but the doors
00:12:26 have to reopen.
00:12:27 Again,
00:12:28 I tried, like,
00:12:28 really hard to unlearn
00:12:29 a lot of those ideals,
00:12:30 so I, like...
00:12:31 Why?
00:12:32 Because I don't think
00:12:33 that they're right
00:12:34 at the end of the day.
00:12:35 Can you give an example? 0.94
00:12:36 I think that gay people 0.99
00:12:38 aren't going to hell. 0.99
00:12:39 I think that abortion 0.98
00:12:40 is a medical care.
00:12:42 Like, it's not...
00:12:44 That should be up
00:12:45 to the woman 0.68
00:12:45 and her doctor
00:12:46 and no one else.
00:12:47 Are you still Catholic?
00:12:48 I still believe in God,
00:12:50 but I think that
00:12:50 organized religion is... 0.99
00:12:52 A scam. 0.98
00:12:53 Scary.
00:12:54 Scary.
00:12:55 Yes.
00:12:55 Okay.
00:12:56 So where do you think
00:12:56 gay people are going now? 0.99
00:12:58 I think that gay people 1.00
00:12:59 are going to heaven. 1.00
00:13:01 I think that if you're
00:13:02 a good person,
00:13:02 you're going to heaven,
00:13:03 and I don't think 0.77
00:13:03 that being gay is... 0.95
00:13:05 It's an automatic 1.00
00:13:05 sentence to hell. 0.98
00:13:06 I don't think that being gay 0.97
00:13:07 is a quantifier
00:13:08 for if you're a good person
00:13:09 or not.
00:13:11 That's fair.
00:13:11 Yeah.
00:13:12 I think a lot of people
00:13:12 would agree with that.
00:13:13 It's mostly based on,
00:13:13 like, we're all going
00:13:14 to be judged.
00:13:15 Yeah, exactly.
00:13:16 Okay.
00:13:16 Do your parents, like,
00:13:17 push back on you
00:13:18 for you changing
00:13:19 your beliefs on this?
00:13:19 All the time.
00:13:20 Yeah.
00:13:21 Okay, Thanksgiving dinner
00:13:21 is difficult.
00:13:22 Yeah, so we'll Easter brunch,
00:13:23 which is coming up.
00:13:24 Oh, yeah, it is.
00:13:25 Yeah, I'm going home
00:13:25 for that.
00:13:26 How are you going
00:13:26 to prepare
00:13:27 for that conversation?
00:13:28 I'm going to take
00:13:29 a little edible
00:13:29 because it's on 420.
00:13:31 Do you make judgments
00:13:32 based off of people's race?
00:13:34 Honestly, I feel like,
00:13:36 yeah, sometimes I do,
00:13:37 but I feel like...
00:13:38 I mean, I'm in a philosophy
00:13:39 class right now
00:13:39 that's about, like,
00:13:40 marginalized people.
00:13:42 And we actually
00:13:42 were just talking, like,
00:13:43 two days ago
00:13:44 about, like,
00:13:45 visualizing Jesus
00:13:46 and, like, the way
00:13:47 that, like,
00:13:47 people would visualize it.
00:13:48 And our teacher was like,
00:13:49 okay, visualize him black.
00:13:50 And the majority 0.67
00:13:51 of the people
00:13:51 could not do it
00:13:52 because it's like,
00:13:53 there are just things
00:13:53 like that where it's,
00:13:54 like, it's a very...
00:13:56 Wait, but everybody
00:13:56 can visualize him white?
00:13:57 Right, exactly.
00:13:58 But he wasn't white.
00:14:00 He wasn't white at all.
00:14:00 So that's the thing.
00:14:01 It's like, I don't know,
00:14:02 I feel like this world
00:14:03 is very anti-black
00:14:05 and it kind of
00:14:06 is moving backwards.
00:14:07 You think so?
00:14:08 In a sense.
00:14:09 Oh, yeah, I do.
00:14:10 I mean, it's obvious
00:14:11 you have to.
00:14:11 I'm not gonna lie
00:14:12 and say I don't see race. 0.98
00:14:13 I'm not fucking colorblind. 0.98
00:14:14 But me seeing race 0.96
00:14:15 doesn't mean that
00:14:15 I have to dictate
00:14:16 how I'm gonna treat
00:14:17 someone differently
00:14:17 because of that.
00:14:18 Just because you're
00:14:19 a different type of brown
00:14:19 than I am,
00:14:20 someone's a different type
00:14:21 of purple
00:14:21 or a different type of white
00:14:22 doesn't mean I'm gonna
00:14:22 take away their right 0.99
00:14:23 to vote or live
00:14:25 where they want to live
00:14:25 or be treated 1.00
00:14:26 like a fucking human being. 1.00
00:14:27 That's basic. 1.00
00:14:28 That's the basis.
00:14:29 It's the basis.
00:14:30 Nowhere in that
00:14:31 holy Bible did Jesus say
00:14:33 treat everyone
00:14:33 like an absolute 1.00
00:14:34 piece of shit 1.00
00:14:35 because they're not 1.00
00:14:35 your fucking 1.00
00:14:36 natural born neighbor. 1.00
00:14:37 Nowhere in that book.
00:14:38 Nowhere in that book.
00:14:40 So again,
00:14:41 the same people
00:14:41 who are telling you
00:14:42 to follow that book
00:14:42 don't follow the teachings
00:14:43 in that book.
00:14:44 The same people
00:14:44 who pay you
00:14:45 to come up here
00:14:46 and do this
00:14:46 are the same people
00:14:46 who throw you
00:14:47 under the bus
00:14:47 with a Hitler salute 1.00
00:14:49 or some bullshit. 1.00
00:14:50 The same people 1.00
00:14:51 like Nick Fuentes
00:14:51 will get a million views
00:14:53 off you 0.88
00:14:53 and then chuck you 0.84
00:14:54 to the side
00:14:54 because it's easy
00:14:55 to throw you
00:14:56 under the bus
00:14:56 than to take accountability
00:14:57 for their own 1.00
00:14:58 fucking actions. 1.00
00:14:59 And who's left 1.00
00:14:59 on the wayside?
00:15:00 Us.
00:15:01 People who really 1.00
00:15:02 had a fucking dream. 1.00
00:15:03 People who really 1.00
00:15:03 wanted to do something.
00:15:04 People who had a voice
00:15:04 and they destroy us first.
00:15:06 Fred Hampton,
00:15:07 Malcolm X,
00:15:08 Martin Luther King, 0.99
00:15:09 whoever the fuck 0.99
00:15:09 has a voice 1.00
00:15:10 that has a power,
00:15:11 they destroy you
00:15:11 first and foremost.
00:15:13 Why?
00:15:13 Because you may have
00:15:14 a result
00:15:14 and you can change
00:15:15 the future.
00:15:16 You have that power,
00:15:17 Sneeko. 0.54
00:15:18 Do you judge people
00:15:18 based off of their race?
00:15:20 No.
00:15:21 It's pointless.
00:15:23 Okay.
00:15:24 So when you see race,
00:15:26 what do you think?
00:15:28 When I see race, 0.99
00:15:28 I think of
00:15:29 systemics.
00:15:32 I think of intersectionality.
00:15:33 I think of the way
00:15:34 things are intertwined
00:15:35 into society.
00:15:36 So like,
00:15:37 when I see race,
00:15:37 I see like,
00:15:39 I live in like
00:15:40 Flatbush.
00:15:40 When I see race, 0.99
00:15:41 I see the fact that
00:15:43 everybody's kind of
00:15:44 boarded into somewhere
00:15:45 and I know that
00:15:46 people don't have
00:15:46 property like me
00:15:47 in certain places
00:15:48 because of redlining.
00:15:49 Or I see
00:15:49 more police
00:15:50 in my train stations
00:15:51 than,
00:15:52 let's say like,
00:15:54 4th Ave
00:15:54 and Bay Ridge
00:15:55 or something like that.
00:15:56 When I see race, 0.99
00:15:56 I see small things
00:15:57 like that.
00:15:57 Intricacies
00:15:58 are politics,
00:16:00 the way things
00:16:01 are worded in the news,
00:16:03 mortality rates.
00:16:05 Do you see race?
00:16:07 What do you mean?
00:16:08 Do you see color?
00:16:08 Do you see race?
00:16:10 Yes.
00:16:11 Do you make judgments
00:16:11 off of that?
00:16:12 No.
00:16:13 Well,
00:16:14 I feel like we're
00:16:15 raised to,
00:16:17 we're taught at school
00:16:18 also to,
00:16:20 I feel like we're all
00:16:21 divided in some
00:16:22 sort of ways,
00:16:22 but I see myself
00:16:24 as a global citizen
00:16:25 so I don't really
00:16:26 like judge
00:16:27 by race at all.
00:16:30 At all?
00:16:30 No,
00:16:31 I don't think so.
00:16:32 No,
00:16:32 I see everybody
00:16:33 as equal.
00:16:34 I mean,
00:16:34 I don't treat people
00:16:34 differently based on
00:16:35 how they're dressed,
00:16:36 how they act.
00:16:37 Well,
00:16:38 how they act is different
00:16:39 but I mean,
00:16:39 who they are as a person
00:16:40 doesn't matter to me.
00:16:41 So,
00:16:42 when do you make
00:16:42 judgments of somebody?
00:16:43 Based on their actions,
00:16:44 based on their character,
00:16:45 how they treat other people
00:16:46 and if they respect others
00:16:48 and animals especially.
00:16:49 If they don't like animals, 1.00
00:16:50 they're fucked up. 1.00
00:16:51 I judge people 1.00
00:16:52 by their character,
00:16:53 not by their race.
00:16:55 You make no judgments
00:16:55 off race?
00:16:57 At all?
00:16:58 Do you notice
00:16:58 any anti-white bias at all?
00:17:01 I don't,
00:17:02 I don't know.
00:17:02 I mean,
00:17:03 I feel like being white, 0.88
00:17:04 I'm very privileged
00:17:05 and like I recognize
00:17:06 that I have privilege
00:17:07 and like I have the power
00:17:09 to change things
00:17:11 and like to see that like
00:17:11 there are things
00:17:12 that need to be changed
00:17:13 but I mean,
00:17:15 personally like towards me,
00:17:16 like I have not felt
00:17:18 any type of like
00:17:18 anti-white bias
00:17:20 just about anything
00:17:21 really in my life
00:17:22 and like that's a privilege
00:17:23 that I haven't felt that.
00:17:26 You don't notice any,
00:17:27 like anything at all?
00:17:31 Okay,
00:17:32 how about this?
00:17:32 Remember during George Floyd?
00:17:34 Yeah.
00:17:34 When white people 0.61
00:17:35 were like bowing down 0.86
00:17:36 to black people's feet? 0.96
00:17:37 Yeah. 0.99
00:17:38 Do you think
00:17:38 that that was right?
00:17:40 I mean,
00:17:41 I think in regards
00:17:43 to like Black Lives Matter 0.87
00:17:44 and stuff,
00:17:44 like I mean,
00:17:45 police brutality
00:17:46 is kind of its own thing
00:17:47 and I feel like of course
00:17:49 there's always prejudice
00:17:51 towards specific like races
00:17:54 and I mean,
00:17:56 I don't know,
00:17:57 it's like I think
00:17:57 it's in our power
00:17:58 to recognize
00:17:58 that there are things
00:17:59 that are wrong
00:18:01 but I mean,
00:18:02 it's about like equality
00:18:03 in the end,
00:18:04 like it's,
00:18:05 you know,
00:18:05 about between like race
00:18:07 and also like for,
00:18:08 you know,
00:18:09 female and male
00:18:10 and like,
00:18:10 you know,
00:18:11 so much other as well
00:18:12 but I don't know,
00:18:14 I don't know
00:18:14 how to answer that.
00:18:17 So you just,
00:18:18 loving everyone
00:18:18 is the way to go.
00:18:19 Yeah.
00:18:20 So James,
00:18:20 you're 12 years old.
00:18:21 Yeah.
00:18:22 What do you want to be
00:18:22 when you grow up?
00:18:23 I want to be
00:18:24 a professional hockey player.
00:18:26 Are you on track
00:18:26 to do that?
00:18:28 Hopefully.
00:18:29 I think I'm doing good
00:18:30 so far.
00:18:31 I'm working hard
00:18:31 at practices,
00:18:33 doing my best
00:18:34 but I really think
00:18:35 if I keep going
00:18:36 I have a chance.
00:18:36 It's a difficult sport.
00:18:37 There's a lot of fighting
00:18:38 and it's a lot of training.
00:18:39 I know.
00:18:40 Part of that's the reason
00:18:40 I play it.
00:18:41 I like how tough
00:18:42 you have to be
00:18:43 to play it.
00:18:44 It's a very hard sport
00:18:45 but that's what
00:18:46 I like about it.
00:18:47 Why hockey?
00:18:47 Why do you want to
00:18:48 be a professional
00:18:48 hockey player?
00:18:51 Well,
00:18:51 not because of a pay.
00:18:52 I pay a lot
00:18:53 but I really have
00:18:54 a love for the sport.
00:18:55 I mean,
00:18:56 I come to practice
00:18:57 and I'm just happy
00:18:58 to be there.
00:18:59 I really love hockey.
00:19:00 It's a big passion of mine.
00:19:02 Do you work at it
00:19:03 every single day?
00:19:05 I have spring break now
00:19:06 so every day this week
00:19:08 I'm doing privates
00:19:09 but usually on
00:19:11 weekdays I can
00:19:12 because I have school
00:19:13 and homework.
00:19:14 Well,
00:19:14 you can still do drills
00:19:15 in your room.
00:19:15 You can still work out.
00:19:16 You can do push-ups.
00:19:17 I shoot pucks sometimes
00:19:17 but I don't really do
00:19:18 any body weight.
00:19:19 I should do some
00:19:20 body weight exercises
00:19:20 like push-ups,
00:19:22 squats,
00:19:22 lunges
00:19:22 but I don't really.
00:19:23 Something you can do
00:19:24 in your room.
00:19:24 Why not?
00:19:24 Instead of playing
00:19:25 Fortnite,
00:19:25 you should get that done.
00:19:26 I should.
00:19:27 I truly should.
00:19:27 Yeah.
00:19:28 Well,
00:19:28 if you want to be
00:19:29 professional,
00:19:29 I think the best advice
00:19:30 I can give you
00:19:31 is start now
00:19:32 because there's someone else.
00:19:33 The future best hockey player
00:19:35 is doing those push-ups.
00:19:37 So next time you're playing
00:19:38 Fortnite or something,
00:19:38 remember that the
00:19:39 next best player
00:19:40 is doing what you're not doing.
00:19:42 Yeah.
00:19:42 At that moment.
00:19:44 Hey,
00:19:44 but Sam,
00:19:44 I wish all the best success
00:19:45 to you, man.
00:19:46 You're going to make it
00:19:46 one day if you work hard.
00:19:47 Thank you.
00:19:48 What did you want to be
00:19:49 when you grew up?
00:19:51 Funny enough,
00:19:51 I loved the ocean a lot
00:19:53 and I thought I wanted
00:19:54 to be a marine biologist
00:19:55 when I was a young kid
00:19:56 because I thought
00:19:57 it was just
00:19:58 you just go out in boats
00:19:59 and look at fish
00:20:00 and things,
00:20:01 you know?
00:20:02 Take pictures of fish
00:20:02 and all that.
00:20:04 But now,
00:20:04 like,
00:20:05 I make music,
00:20:06 I work in the music industry
00:20:07 so...
00:20:08 Complete 180.
00:20:10 Oh, yeah.
00:20:11 Especially when I learned
00:20:12 that marine biology
00:20:13 is not about
00:20:14 taking pictures of fish.
00:20:16 What did you want to be
00:20:17 when you grew up?
00:20:18 When I was really young,
00:20:20 I wanted to be an astronaut.
00:20:21 Did, like,
00:20:21 a whole project on it,
00:20:22 made, like,
00:20:23 a whole diagram.
00:20:24 And then all my friends
00:20:25 when I was kids,
00:20:26 they told me I would die
00:20:27 if I was an astronaut
00:20:28 so I threw that away.
00:20:30 You threw it away
00:20:30 because of your friends?
00:20:31 Yeah,
00:20:31 my friends told me
00:20:32 I was going to die. 0.50
00:20:32 I was scared shitless, bro.
00:20:34 Do you regret
00:20:34 not following that?
00:20:35 I don't know about astronomy.
00:20:38 I guess when I got older
00:20:39 as well,
00:20:40 I kind of realized
00:20:40 that, like,
00:20:41 space wasn't, like,
00:20:42 super interesting to me.
00:20:44 From there,
00:20:45 I guess, like,
00:20:45 the past that I really
00:20:46 thought about
00:20:46 were, like,
00:20:47 I was pretty involved
00:20:47 in robotics
00:20:48 in high school.
00:20:49 When do you think
00:20:50 it's too old
00:20:51 to still try
00:20:52 to pursue your passions?
00:20:53 It's never too old.
00:20:54 I'm starting ballet
00:20:56 at 50.
00:20:57 So,
00:20:58 it's never too old.
00:20:59 So, like,
00:21:00 being 50,
00:21:00 I am, like,
00:21:01 being a child again.
00:21:02 So,
00:21:03 I'm getting to, like,
00:21:05 see myself
00:21:05 in a different light.
00:21:06 So,
00:21:07 two months into
00:21:08 absolute beginner ballet.
00:21:12 I wanted to be
00:21:12 a veterinarian.
00:21:13 Are you doing that?
00:21:14 No,
00:21:15 I'm studying fashion
00:21:16 and marketing.
00:21:17 Do you go to FIT?
00:21:18 No.
00:21:19 Okay.
00:21:19 Local community.
00:21:20 So,
00:21:21 when did you change
00:21:22 from veterinarian
00:21:23 to fashion?
00:21:23 That's a big jump.
00:21:24 I didn't want to see
00:21:25 animals die.
00:21:26 That was, like,
00:21:27 not my thing.
00:21:28 Yeah.
00:21:28 I just like helping them,
00:21:29 but I'd rather have
00:21:30 multiple pets
00:21:30 than just be a veterinarian.
00:21:32 Do you prefer cats
00:21:33 or dogs?
00:21:33 I have two cats, so.
00:21:34 You don't like dogs?
00:21:35 I love dogs.
00:21:36 You do?
00:21:36 I love all animals.
00:21:37 You kind of remind me
00:21:39 of a cat,
00:21:39 but why don't you have dogs?
00:21:40 I live in an apartment,
00:21:41 so it wouldn't be fair.
00:21:42 It needs, like,
00:21:43 room to roam around.
00:21:44 Oh, okay.
00:21:45 What did you want to be
00:21:45 when you grew up?
00:21:46 I want to be a vet,
00:21:48 still.
00:21:49 You in school for that?
00:21:50 Not yet.
00:21:51 I'm a vet assistant
00:21:52 right now.
00:21:53 Okay.
00:21:53 So,
00:21:53 working my way.
00:21:55 Oh,
00:21:55 so you're going to achieve it?
00:21:56 Yes.
00:21:56 Have you always wanted
00:21:57 to be a vet?
00:21:58 Yes.
00:21:59 What is it about animals
00:22:00 that you like so much?
00:22:02 Just the innocence.
00:22:03 Like, you know,
00:22:03 they don't have a voice
00:22:04 for themselves,
00:22:05 so, you know,
00:22:06 I want to be that voice,
00:22:07 help out.
00:22:08 Which animals
00:22:09 do you mostly take care of?
00:22:10 I have three cats right now.
00:22:12 I do cat and dog vaccines.
00:22:14 I help out,
00:22:14 but I love all animals.
00:22:16 I originally wanted
00:22:17 to do, like,
00:22:18 marine,
00:22:18 so, like,
00:22:19 sharks and stuff like that.
00:22:21 And now I notice
00:22:21 you have the cat sweater on.
00:22:23 Yes.
00:22:23 You represent?
00:22:24 Yeah,
00:22:25 I've got three cats.
00:22:26 They're all old men. 1.00
00:22:27 What did you want to be
00:22:27 when you grew up?
00:22:29 Baseball player.
00:22:30 Are you Dominican?
00:22:31 Yes, sir.
00:22:32 How you know that?
00:22:33 Baseball,
00:22:33 you know,
00:22:34 uptown.
00:22:35 Facts, facts.
00:22:36 Yeah.
00:22:36 Did you do it?
00:22:38 Nah.
00:22:39 Got as far as college,
00:22:40 that's all.
00:22:41 How come you
00:22:41 couldn't make it further?
00:22:43 Not that nice,
00:22:44 I guess.
00:22:45 What position?
00:22:46 Shortstop?
00:22:46 Second base shortstop.
00:22:47 Second base shortstop.
00:22:48 Yeah.
00:22:49 Okay.
00:22:49 I'm two for two right now.
00:22:51 Yeah,
00:22:51 you are.
00:22:52 Yeah,
00:22:52 yeah.
00:22:52 Did you regret it?
00:22:53 I mean,
00:22:53 do you have any regrets?
00:22:55 Eh.
00:22:57 I had a kid too,
00:22:58 so no,
00:22:59 I don't regret it actually.
00:23:00 Oh, okay.
00:23:00 How many kids do you have?
00:23:01 Three.
00:23:01 Three?
00:23:02 Yeah.
00:23:02 Dang.
00:23:04 What's the,
00:23:04 can I ask,
00:23:05 all the same mom? 0.99
00:23:06 The oldest?
00:23:07 Well,
00:23:08 is it all the same mom
00:23:08 for all three?
00:23:09 No, no,
00:23:09 three different baby moms, 1.00
00:23:10 man.
00:23:10 All three?
00:23:11 I'm Dominican,
00:23:12 they're just saying.
00:23:13 Come on,
00:23:13 man.
00:23:13 Que lo que,
00:23:14 wah, wah, wah.
00:23:15 You're slaying.
00:23:15 Facts,
00:23:16 wah, wah, wah.
00:23:16 Wah, wah, wah.
00:23:18 I guess I want to get
00:23:19 a good job
00:23:20 and be rich enough
00:23:21 to travel the world.
00:23:23 Are you on track
00:23:23 to do that?
00:23:25 Yeah,
00:23:25 I think so.
00:23:28 What do you mean
00:23:29 you think so?
00:23:29 Yeah.
00:23:30 I don't know
00:23:31 if I'm on the right track
00:23:32 though,
00:23:32 but I'm trying to be.
00:23:34 How old are you?
00:23:35 I'm 20,
00:23:36 oh,
00:23:36 how old do you think
00:23:37 I am?
00:23:38 So 20,
00:23:39 I already said 20,
00:23:40 yeah.
00:23:41 20,
00:23:41 22?
00:23:42 22?
00:23:43 Yeah,
00:23:43 I guess so.
00:23:44 Thanks a lot,
00:23:44 I appreciate that.
00:23:45 They say I'm pushing 30,
00:23:47 I'm 26,
00:23:47 I'm about to be 27.
00:23:49 Oh,
00:23:49 okay.
00:23:49 Mentally,
00:23:50 I already say I'm 30
00:23:50 so that by the time
00:23:51 I'm 30,
00:23:52 it's not going to hit
00:23:53 like a train,
00:23:53 you know?
00:23:54 I want to be mentally
00:23:55 ready for that.
00:23:56 So in my head,
00:23:57 I'm already 30 mentally.
00:23:59 You're from here.
00:23:59 You've said enough,
00:24:02 we've heard all you need
00:24:03 to say,
00:24:03 Jesus Christ.
00:24:04 That's why I'm
00:24:05 interviewing people.
00:24:06 Genius.
00:24:07 Do you still think
00:24:08 space is real
00:24:08 after seeing Katy Perry
00:24:09 and Gayle King 0.98
00:24:10 and Jeff Bezos'
00:24:11 wife go in that
00:24:12 little round tube
00:24:13 and float in the air?
00:24:14 Do you think it's real?
00:24:15 I think it's real
00:24:15 because Dude Perfect
00:24:16 did a video
00:24:17 where they went up
00:24:18 and I trust them.
00:24:20 No part of you
00:24:20 thinks that the Earth
00:24:21 is flat and space is fake?
00:24:22 No,
00:24:22 unfortunately not.
00:24:23 No,
00:24:23 so when are normal
00:24:25 people going to go
00:24:25 besides Gayle King
00:24:26 and Katy Perry?
00:24:26 When can we go to space?
00:24:28 That's a good question
00:24:29 because maybe if we never go
00:24:30 then it's true
00:24:31 that it's not real.
00:24:32 I think soon,
00:24:33 50 to 70 years
00:24:34 if you consider that soon.
00:24:35 50 years?
00:24:36 Yeah,
00:24:37 yeah.
00:24:37 If Katy Perry can go now
00:24:38 then we should be able to go.
00:24:39 Well,
00:24:39 I think it's about
00:24:40 affordability,
00:24:41 right?
00:24:42 I think within 50 years
00:24:43 it becomes relatively affordable.
00:24:45 Maybe like
00:24:45 upper class can afford it. 0.98
00:24:48 Alright,
00:24:48 alright,
00:24:48 so what advice
00:24:49 would you give to new fathers?
00:24:52 Man,
00:24:52 just love your kids,
00:24:53 man.
00:24:54 Just love your kids
00:24:54 and be the best dad
00:24:55 you can be.
00:24:57 The best dad you can be.
00:24:58 Respect the mom
00:24:59 and provide.
00:25:01 Is it difficult
00:25:02 to have three different
00:25:04 baby mamas? 1.00
00:25:05 Yes,
00:25:05 it is.
00:25:06 It's expensive.
00:25:07 Yeah.
00:25:07 And a lot of drama.
00:25:08 Oh,
00:25:08 yeah.
00:25:09 That's a fact.
00:25:09 Do they know each other?
00:25:11 Technically they do
00:25:14 but they don't.
00:25:16 So they know
00:25:16 all of each other
00:25:17 but they haven't met?
00:25:17 They know each other
00:25:18 but they met
00:25:18 like one met one
00:25:19 met one
00:25:20 met the other.
00:25:21 The one that I'm currently with
00:25:22 has met all
00:25:23 both of them.
00:25:24 She knows all three.
00:25:26 She knows all two.
00:25:27 All the other two.
00:25:27 Yeah,
00:25:27 yeah.
00:25:28 She hates them.
00:25:29 Yeah,
00:25:29 no,
00:25:29 they're cool.
00:25:30 Oh,
00:25:30 yeah?
00:25:30 They're cool.
00:25:31 Okay.
00:25:32 Yeah,
00:25:32 I keep a cordial,
00:25:33 you know?
00:25:33 Yeah,
00:25:34 yeah,
00:25:34 yeah.
00:25:34 So why is it expensive?
00:25:35 Is it the child support
00:25:36 or is it the transportation?
00:25:37 Kids,
00:25:38 kids,
00:25:38 kids,
00:25:38 kids could be expensive 0.69
00:25:39 and like that,
00:25:41 like me having a home
00:25:43 and having to support them
00:25:44 as well,
00:25:44 supporting myself
00:25:45 and them.
00:25:46 Yeah.
00:25:46 You know what I mean?
00:25:47 Got to keep up with me
00:25:48 and them.
00:25:49 Are you done pumping them out
00:25:50 or are you going to keep on going?
00:25:52 The one I'm with right now
00:25:53 wants another one
00:25:54 so that may be,
00:25:55 you know,
00:25:56 another one may be in the way.
00:25:57 Best of luck.
00:25:57 I mean,
00:25:58 it's not too late.
00:25:58 How old are you?
00:25:59 35.
00:26:00 Yeah,
00:26:00 you can still play ball?
00:26:01 You can still play baseball?
00:26:02 I play softball.
00:26:03 Okay.
00:26:03 Yeah,
00:26:04 I play softball
00:26:04 summertime now
00:26:05 and I'm coaching
00:26:06 two of my two young sons
00:26:08 so I coach them.
00:26:09 Oh,
00:26:09 that's dope,
00:26:10 that's dope. 0.93
00:26:10 Yeah,
00:26:10 so I'm still in the
00:26:11 baseball process.
00:26:13 Yeah,
00:26:13 yeah,
00:26:13 okay.
00:26:14 When did you realize
00:26:15 you wanted to be a baseball player?
00:26:17 Alex Rodriguez,
00:26:18 1996,
00:26:19 1995.
00:26:20 I was five years old.
00:26:21 Alex Rodriguez?
00:26:22 Yeah.
00:26:23 He's been playing that long?
00:26:24 He was,
00:26:24 he signed to Seattle
00:26:26 in 95,
00:26:27 I believe,
00:26:27 yes.
00:26:27 Dressed up,
00:26:28 what are you dressed up for?
00:26:29 I'm dressed up for my job.
00:26:31 What are you dressed up for?
00:26:32 I'm about to do a LinkedIn photo.
00:26:33 A LinkedIn photo?
00:26:34 LinkedIn photo.
00:26:35 What job are you applying for?
00:26:36 For banking,
00:26:37 for finance.
00:26:38 How old are you?
00:26:39 22.
00:26:40 What did you want to be
00:26:41 when you grew up?
00:26:42 When I wanted to grow up?
00:26:44 I wanted to be a meteorologist.
00:26:45 at first when I was younger
00:26:46 because I loved the weather
00:26:48 so I was always like
00:26:49 watching the weather channel
00:26:50 and stuff.
00:26:50 When did you give up on that?
00:26:52 It kind of just went away
00:26:53 over time
00:26:54 and then like
00:26:55 I wanted to be a YouTuber
00:26:56 and that was like
00:26:56 the biggest thing.
00:26:57 When did you give up on that?
00:26:59 I don't think I ever gave up on it.
00:27:01 Like,
00:27:01 it's still in me a little bit.
00:27:03 Like,
00:27:03 I wanted to make videos
00:27:04 like Jideon,
00:27:05 like Loaf
00:27:06 and stuff like that
00:27:06 and then like
00:27:08 because I like doing stuff like that
00:27:10 but then like
00:27:10 I tell myself like
00:27:12 do I want to do that?
00:27:13 Like,
00:27:13 is it worth it?
00:27:14 And like,
00:27:15 am I going to do good?
00:27:16 And stuff like that
00:27:16 because it's like
00:27:17 nowadays there's so many people
00:27:18 doing those types of videos
00:27:19 and like they're kind of making
00:27:21 like a bad rep for everybody.
00:27:22 Like,
00:27:22 you know the ones
00:27:23 like in the Home Depot
00:27:24 and stuff like screaming
00:27:25 and stuff like that.
00:27:25 Tali just got arrested
00:27:26 in the Philippines
00:27:27 for doing that type of stuff.
00:27:28 No, 0.88
00:27:28 but he was crazy for that.
00:27:29 Yeah, 0.71
00:27:29 he was.
00:27:30 I hope he can do better.
00:27:32 Do you think we need men?
00:27:34 Yeah.
00:27:34 I mean,
00:27:35 I feel like
00:27:35 if a man acts like
00:27:38 a normal person
00:27:39 then it's still
00:27:40 I don't understand
00:27:42 people that say
00:27:42 I hate all men
00:27:43 because there are good people 0.99
00:27:45 they're just encountering
00:27:46 bad people
00:27:47 and I think that men
00:27:48 are definitely necessary.
00:27:51 Do you have friends
00:27:51 that say I hate all men?
00:27:53 No.
00:27:54 No.
00:27:55 I don't surround myself
00:27:56 with people that I wouldn't
00:27:57 act like the same way.
00:27:58 Who do you surround
00:27:59 yourself with?
00:28:00 Right now,
00:28:00 just my
00:28:01 my sister,
00:28:03 my siblings,
00:28:04 and my cats
00:28:05 and my parents.
00:28:06 I live a pretty
00:28:06 peaceful life.
00:28:08 Women are losing 1.00
00:28:09 their rights. 0.93
00:28:09 Black LGBT
00:28:10 we're all
00:28:11 what rights
00:28:12 are women losing? 1.00
00:28:13 Right?
00:28:14 Abortion.
00:28:15 The right to feel safe 1.00
00:28:16 in their own fucking space. 1.00
00:28:17 The right to feel safe? 1.00
00:28:18 Yeah.
00:28:18 How are they losing that?
00:28:19 Simple.
00:28:20 Because when people
00:28:21 keep on coming to them
00:28:22 and saying that
00:28:22 what they fear
00:28:23 isn't real
00:28:23 like a boogeyman
00:28:25 or a Sasquatch
00:28:27 when in actuality
00:28:28 it's happening.
00:28:29 93%
00:28:29 of sexual assault victims
00:28:31 are committed by
00:28:33 straight,
00:28:33 white men
00:28:35 who practice
00:28:35 some form of religion.
00:28:37 It's not drag queens, 1.00
00:28:38 it's not the gays, 1.00
00:28:39 it's straight white men. 0.79
00:28:40 93% 0.89
00:28:41 of sexual assault victims,
00:28:44 okay?
00:28:44 40%
00:28:45 of police officers
00:28:47 have reported
00:28:47 spousal abuse
00:28:48 in their home.
00:28:49 We want to start looking
00:28:50 at the calls
00:28:50 coming from inside the house.
00:28:52 And when we do stuff
00:28:52 like this,
00:28:53 when we don't address
00:28:54 those problems
00:28:54 and we just try to
00:28:55 follow up for social media clout,
00:28:57 it doesn't put us anywhere
00:28:58 but on the wrong side
00:28:59 of history.
00:28:59 I don't want to see you
00:29:01 on the wrong side
00:29:02 of history,
00:29:02 Sneeko. 0.54
00:29:03 What do you think
00:29:03 about the rising
00:29:04 amount of white nationalists
00:29:07 who think that there's
00:29:08 an anti-white sentiment
00:29:08 in the country?
00:29:10 Do you empathize
00:29:10 with that belief at all?
00:29:14 No.
00:29:15 This country was made
00:29:16 by,
00:29:18 this country was founded
00:29:18 by white men
00:29:19 at a time where
00:29:21 women didn't really have 1.00
00:29:22 any real agency
00:29:24 in anything they said
00:29:25 or did.
00:29:25 So it was realistically
00:29:26 founded by white men
00:29:27 before white men.
00:29:28 It wasn't really a country
00:29:29 that was all-inclusive
00:29:30 of indigenous people.
00:29:32 It wasn't a country
00:29:32 that was indigenous
00:29:33 of black people
00:29:33 for any reason
00:29:34 if we know why.
00:29:36 And what we would call
00:29:38 Latino people today
00:29:39 at the time
00:29:39 are technically
00:29:39 also indigenous.
00:29:40 So I don't really
00:29:42 agree with anything
00:29:44 white nationalists
00:29:45 have to say about anything 0.72
00:29:45 because their belief
00:29:46 isn't based in reality.
00:29:48 It's not based in fact.
00:29:48 Right.
00:29:49 It's based in feelings
00:29:50 on what they can see
00:29:51 and what they don't understand. 0.97
00:29:53 Do you hate white people? 0.97
00:29:54 Nah, I was just 0.99
00:29:55 chomping it up
00:29:56 with this one girl
00:29:56 I met at my job.
00:29:57 This white girl 1.00
00:29:58 behind the bar
00:30:00 just now.
00:30:00 I don't have a problem
00:30:01 with white people.
00:30:01 I grew up with white people.
00:30:03 I was friends
00:30:04 with white kids
00:30:04 in elementary school.
00:30:06 One of my closest friends
00:30:07 in elementary school
00:30:08 was one of my friends
00:30:08 Oleg. 0.74
00:30:09 Oleg was Russian.
00:30:10 He used to teach us
00:30:11 curse words.
00:30:11 We used to run around 1.00
00:30:12 saying all types of shit 1.00
00:30:13 in Russian in school. 1.00
00:30:14 I don't have a problem
00:30:15 with white people. 0.83
00:30:15 White people, 0.98
00:30:16 that's not the problem. 0.99
00:30:17 It's not more so white people.
00:30:18 It's ideas.
00:30:20 Because a person
00:30:21 can't be inherently idle.
00:30:22 It can't be inherently bad.
00:30:24 That's doing them
00:30:24 a disservice
00:30:25 because every person
00:30:26 has the opportunity
00:30:27 to grow and change
00:30:28 and you're never
00:30:29 the same person
00:30:29 you were yesterday.
00:30:30 But the ideas
00:30:31 that are more present
00:30:33 in white communities 1.00
00:30:36 are inherently cancerous 1.00
00:30:37 to everybody else.
00:30:39 That's not me
00:30:39 hating white people. 0.99
00:30:40 That's me hating 1.00
00:30:40 a social structure
00:30:43 that's promoted
00:30:44 ideas in their community
00:30:46 that hasn't properly
00:30:47 been dismantled.
00:30:48 We got to look
00:30:48 at the consequences of that.
00:30:49 I don't hate white people. 0.97
00:30:51 No problem with white people. 0.92
00:30:52 Okay, so what made you
00:30:53 start watching my content?
00:30:54 Well, you went off YouTube
00:30:56 and then I couldn't
00:30:57 find you anywhere.
00:30:59 So you stopped watching?
00:31:00 I know, I stopped watching.
00:31:01 I post on Twitter every day.
00:31:02 Okay, I'm not on Twitter.
00:31:03 What did you want to be
00:31:04 when you grew up?
00:31:05 Well, I wanted to be a dentist
00:31:07 but now I'm studying
00:31:08 interior design at Parsons.
00:31:09 I actually coded
00:31:10 one of your YouTube videos
00:31:11 for my college essay.
00:31:13 I'm like a really big fan,
00:31:14 you guys.
00:31:15 You don't know.
00:31:16 What was the quote?
00:31:16 It was about
00:31:18 how we're monkeys.
00:31:19 I think it was
00:31:20 in one of your YouTube videos
00:31:21 of society
00:31:23 and you just made me see
00:31:24 I feel like
00:31:25 You can't remember the quote?
00:31:26 No, no, no.
00:31:27 I can't remember the quote.
00:31:28 I'm in my third year.
00:31:29 You can't blame me.
00:31:30 Yeah, that's fine.
00:31:31 But yeah, I just wanted
00:31:32 I just came here to tell you
00:31:33 that I
00:31:34 you really
00:31:34 like this
00:31:35 you're one of the reasons
00:31:35 that I moved to this city
00:31:37 from India.
00:31:38 From where?
00:31:39 From India?
00:31:39 Yes.
00:31:40 Oh, you came all the way
00:31:40 from India?
00:31:41 Yeah.
00:31:42 Oh, you know the CEO
00:31:42 of YouTube is Indian too,
00:31:44 Neil Mahan.
00:31:44 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:31:45 Okay.

00:31:51 Hey, thanks, Neil.
00:31:52 Can I take a picture with you?
00:31:54 Of course you can, yeah.
00:31:55 Oh my God, it's a dream
00:31:56 from true you don't understand.
00:31:57 It's great to meet you.
00:31:59 It's so nice to meet you.
00:32:00 Are you healthy?
00:32:01 Yes.
00:32:02 So you succeeded?
00:32:03 You do a camera?
00:32:04 Yeah, it's the one-minute podcast.
00:32:06 Hold on to me, please.
00:32:07 It's a podcast.
00:32:09 Actually, I thought I was just a seat.
