it's Episode Number 68 hello everybody How you doing? We are
back once again 14 days we're back on the system I'm Adam
Curry here in the heart of Texas Hill Country and somewhere in
Virginia Northern Virginia my friend on the other end ladies

know, you give you give me a good track like that. I'm into
it. I love that. I love it. It's good man. We have we have not
spoken at all have we had we had like three text messages and in
two weeks.
I think that's about it. It's been crazy.
So you've been busy.
super busy, super busy. The job is getting mandated proof. You
know, that kind of thing. And they're working the heck out of
us.
Really? Wait, wait, wait. Yeah, we got him for a little bit
longer. Let's keep him as working real hard. Is that
what's going on? Oh, man, of course.
But you know how it goes on with the thing in Texas. That's a
good look. So we'll see how it goes.

that mandate came out. And now we'll see. Who knows? Who knows?
It's
you don't know. But I mean, it is what it is. In the meantime.
Yes, we'll ratchet it up. Let's wind this up. Find out what the
topic will be for Moe facts with Adam Curry, Episode Number 68.
Ladies and gentlemen, nobody knows where it will stop except
for Moe, he knows exactly what's going on the topic will be
critical race theory. A much anticipated topic critical race
theory.
When it is when it isn't, do it
justice have a Wikipedia page. It
is some people say it doesn't exist. So not a thing.
It's not a thing. It doesn't exist at all, even though it has
a Wikipedia page. And as a scholarly thing.
I think is one of these things where people make it what they
want it to be. So picking up off where we left off last time on
the binary thinking tip. This is just like one of the
battlegrounds, you know people are fighting Oh, this topic
disappeared. It's big, very big. It's very big. He's right behind
the Cuf. And he knows it and in some people's mind, it might
even be bigger. Depending on how you
how you live, it's certainly one of the major topics of the
school board meetings where people are just getting into the
school board's face, you know, so it's it's definitely top of
mind.
We definitely that's gonna be an element of it. Um, I guess it's
hard to tell you put your goggles on. Let's go ahead and
get into number two.
Republicans are fanning the flames of a new culture war,
claiming the teaching of critical race theory is a threat
to our kids and to community relations. But this isn't just
some abstract argument. They're actually pushing through
legislation in state after state as we speak, legislation aimed
at making sure it can't be talked about in schools, which
isn't just dumb because critical race theory isn't taught in
schools to begin with. It's taught to law students in
university, but it's also a complete violation of the First
Amendment from a party that claims to be all about free
speech. Joining me now is Kimberly Crenshaw, executive
director with the African American policy forum. She's
also a law professor at Columbia and UCLA host of the podcast
intersectionality matters. She's the one who coined the phrase
intersectionality and also co founded critical race theory.
Kimberly, it's a pleasure to have you on the show. Your
African American policy forum is campaigning against these
republican censorship campaigns. So I want to start by asking you
to please explain what critical race theory actually is because
Tucker Carlson and Mark Greene clearly don't have a clue. You
do. You helped found it. define it for our viewers, please. In
the simplest of terms,
well the simplest of terms and thanks for The opportunity
critical race theory is the study of law and how it has been
part of the infrastructure, from slavery to emancipation to
segregation to today upon which racial inequalities have been
based.
Oh, that's interesting. Okay, so the the founder of critical race
theory here, Kimberly, what's her name?
Kimberly, cream Crenshaw
sheets. I did not know that this was that it had to do with law
which reminds me of the book, The color of law.
That's where it was birthed out of that, but it was birthed out
of university. Yeah. And as you heard, Maddie say that's Mehdi
Hassan. From msnbc. He says that it's only taught in college
courses. Me I mean, universities. It's like, hold
on. Wait, that's not No, no, that's
definitely not all we're hearing it seems to be middle school and
high schools and even lower grade
Elementary. Yeah, elementary schools as well. Um, but this is
the thing. It's like, Oh, no, that that's, it's been this
moving target. I had to lay this out front. I think what happened
was that 1619 was supposed to be their original vehicle that they
use to push this narrative
and so he got some crazy rails. Yeah, sure did.
So it's like, Okay, what can we dig in you know, and pick up
critical race theory which in itself, is a is a offensive
term. And let me let me explain that when just the words all put
together, when you hear critical that's alarming and it's urgent
attention. Urgent, right? And then you throw racing anything
yeah, and we we do have the race I saw that I picked up but we'll
get to that later. We have already had it ready. racing
thoughts from racing there? It's just
it's just from time to time you just got to do that just I think
it's like in normal family life. It's like Could you please take
out the garbage and just keep doing that?
And then you have theory which theory just leaves everything up
to debate? Yes. Like not it's not Chronicles
about race, but it gets a theory.
So when you throw all these things together, it gives people
alarm just from the beginning of it and the way it's being
pushed. And the title of this video I'm pulling this from off.
YouTube is called the truth about critical race theory co
founder breaks down GOP gaslighting a hell of a title.
Yeah. So we should be familiar with Miss Kimberly Crenshaw from
intersectionality. This is a throwback clip from show 18 she
wrote a hero where we covered the topic.
intersectionality is just a metaphor for understanding the
ways that multiple forms of inequality or disadvantage
sometimes compound themselves. And they create obstacles that
often are not understood within conventional ways of thinking
about anti racism or feminism or whatever social justice advocacy
structures we have. intersectionality isn't so much
a grand theory it's a prison for understanding certain kinds of
problems.
Okay, so that did not explain that did not help understand
intersectionality
and we had the same outcome was your 18 is the word salad. It
makes no sense. It's not really a theory and now they're doing
the same thing with the critical.
Let me ask you a question. So you said you know they the 1619
project, I got submarine and then they decided to go full on
critical race theory. Who do you think they is in this case?
Ah, that's a good question. Well, you you have the Black
Lives Matter ain't crew. Yeah. The Democrats which is our
liberals have you want to say, which is using this as a major
for lack of better word taunting is using You know, this keep
this popcorn to 2022?
Yeah, well, but but from an academic perspective, you know,
it's not it's not the case that you know, some Democrats as well
time to ratchet up critical race theory. That's not how you get
stuff into school. This got to be a lot more. It's got to be
structural. You know, it's got to be it's got to be a part of
the curriculum. I mean, that's which I guess means that it's
just really really nastily corrupt all the way through.
That's that's the point is it's a one of those things that can
create a binary argument, and it works politically. It works
through social social engineering. It Works you're
seeing a lot of ways in these kind of things make occur
organic first. Notice in a while as my my wife that critical race
theory, yeah, let's push that. Or since we already had Kimberly
Crenshaw pushing the intersectionality it's just a
natural Hey, I got this critical race theory I'll show
you grab that for me. I've got some CRT over there.
What because the thing is this thing was created back in the
80s. So it's like, it's nothing new. I mean, it's very, it's
very, um, it's been around in the law circles for a while now.
Yeah, so um, well, hopefully
we'll we'll come to understand what that means. How it's been
around the law circles. So I guess this is where we find out
that. I mean, I don't know I let it unfold Mo. I'm Ramallah.
We go into the co founder. So we're gonna let her explain this
to us like we're idiots. What it is, what it isn't, and what it's
being used for. So let's go ahead and get into number four.
It's it's basically an effort to think about, we have had
commitments to equality since the 14th. amendment, yet our
reach has not realized itself in in real equality. So we're
basically just asking questions, and looking at the way that law
has been a conduit for racial inequality, and therefore what
we need to do about law in order to bring us closer to the dreams
that we have as a society. But let me be clear, this is not
about critical race theory. Ted Cruz knows what critical race
theory is, and isn't the people who are trying to create this
hysteria around critical race theory know what critical race
theory is, or isn't what this is, is backlash politics, coming
precisely at a moment where finally racial justice has
become a majority Aryan interest on the part of Americans from
all races and all classes. So this is a way of pushing back
against that, without saying that we're for racism, they can
say we're against critical race theory,
payments. This this is the founder of critical race theory.
Yes. And she's, she's name checking Ted Cruz on I mean, so
so she's just a political operative. She's full of crap.
She's no idealist.
Exactly. She's She's actually working for an organization. You
know. I thought I had it here. But I don't. But yeah, she's
working in a political capacity and a professor, Will these
professors like moonlight?
Yeah, that's true. That's true. It's just so blatantly obvious.
You know, when you when you do when you're at that level,
calling out Ted Cruz, it's like, then you are not looking at a
big picture of stuff. So you're doing some melt?
If I'm not mistaken, she This was created at Harvard. Right?
And I think Ted Cruz is a law graduate from Harvard. It's not
think she's saying,
point. Oh, okay. Oh, no,
he knows you still sound like he should know.
Right? But what but critical race theory and the law and what
Ted Cruz may or may not know, doesn't sound like what these
parents are talking about at the school board meetings.
doesn't sound very similar to Black Lives Matter. Aha, when
you say Black Lives Matter is ABC, even people like no, no,
no.
This Yeah.
So it's these things that, um, can be used as a wedge for
political gain for social, like I said, social social change. As
you say, she said that, you know, race is front and center
now. So they kind of got to seize on it. This is at Unity
healing.
I feel so good about it. Yeah.
Come on in and use their force in unity and healing. So let's
go ahead and get into part three.
Yes, well said. And you mentioned Ted Cruz, like you and
alumnus of Harvard Law School, he compared critical race theory
to the KKK. What is your response to that to Senator Cruz
on that specific comparison?
Well, you know, it would be laughable if it weren't so
dangerous. And if it weren't so familiar, this is a mob
mentality trying to willie horton eyes, racial justice. And
we've seen it before we saw it right after the end of the Civil
War, when the idea that racial equality was anti white racism
was articulated by the president of United States, President
Johnson who vetoed our civil rights, saying that it was
reverse discrimination. It took away from white people and gave
to black people. But that wasn't the last time we saw it. We saw
it during the civil rights movement when many white people
said equality being forced to serve you violates my civil
rights. So the idea that anti racism is anti White is tried
and true. The playbook move. It used to be part of the Neo
nationalist, right? It's now moved to the center of the
Republican Party on the heels of this so called hysteria around
critical race theory.
Wow, this is this woman is truly disappointing me. I was ready to
really hear something really intelligent. something great
about some academic thing I could look into this is just an
operative
as a tool for hysteria. She said, hysteria twice. She did.
She said it twice. And that's what is causing on both sides.
Because in the minds of people that want to believe it's a good
thing, it's like how do you not want to, you know, heal racism?
Like, same thing with how do you not want to take the vaccine?
You know, how do you not want to do your part? Or how do you not
want to help? Yeah, back in the back,
there's a binary that we've been talking about.
Right? And on the other side, like, do you know what critical
race theory is? And who's pushing it? Um, where it's
coming from out of Harvard? And my frustration is that if it's
about law, and how law is not being used or being misused,
these are the kind of people that were supposed to look to
miss Crenshaw, Crenshaw, that you're supposed to be fighting
the good legal fight, not pontificating about theories,
you know, that don't mean a hill of beans. We should be actually
getting change happen
and then answers and then she brings up Willie Horton. I mean,
is that even a relevant name anymore?
Does that still have no clue who that was? I didn't have time.
Really? Oh, that's interesting. Oh, who willie horton means?
Yeah, yes. What else? Yeah, Willie Horton. It's like a it's
like a thing. Now his word was for a while. This was a guy who
was convicted black guy serving a life sentence for murder. And
oh, okay. Okay, now, they let him out right there on the on a
furlough or get out hang out at the weekend or something. And he
didn't come back. He committed armed robbery. Think rape.
Is that in Texas? That was in Texas. No,
no, hold on. Let me take a look. Or Florida. Maryland, Maryland.
Okay. Wait a minute. He was Yeah, Maryland. But he was he
was when he was the beneficiary of a Massachusetts furlough
program. So he might have been in Massachusetts.
Totally got by me. Well, it was
this this was a while ago. This was in the 80s
Okay, well, like Mike said she's she's from the 80s so I mean,
like I'm exactly not saying that I'm the best but I just see her
very Miss from ATC a
well, exactly. And it's like okay, not very relevant, but I
caught it.
Okay, so well now this is why I'm gonna have to lean on you it
because hysteria. You've been doing coverage of this topic. I
think the gentleman's name is you're gonna help me with that.
Yeah.
Mateus. Does Smith. Okay, is that Dutch? He's Belgian
actually which, which, and that's the Flemish side. So
that's very close to Dutch. And we can understand. It's like
American English and British English.
Got it? Got it. So yeah, keep following these clips and
talking about free floating anxiety. And I think critical
race theory definitely falls under one of these triggers for
that so you can give your spiel on it and we'll get right into
the clip.
Yeah, I'll just I'll just give a little background on Mateus De
Smet. He's a professor in psychology from Finn's
University in Belgium he has a another degree in statistics.
hairball, don't worry about hairball and that's how he
actually started becoming very interested in what was going on
because he saw very quickly as a statistician having a master's
degree in that, that the numbers and the graphs that they were
showing at the beginning of the the corona Rona crisis that the
they were full of crap, and they were making some very huge
assumptions and mistakes. And it took him by his own admission
about six months until he figured out that Wait a minute,
I know what's going on here we are in a state of what he calls
mass formation and you can use the word formation as for a
hysteria and he ends so the final thing I'll say so I don't
spoil any of the clips is that this state is a hypnotic state.
It can be done by professionals in this case it was done by a
number of factors can be done by professionals to a degree that
this is often used in surgical settings and people can be
hypnotized be in the same state that we're going to hear many
people are and you can even cut them and they won't even feel it
won't even know it. So it's a serious hypnotic condition.
So you say under a spell? Oh, yeah.
Totally under a spell? Yes, sir, you spell.
Before you start this next clip, I'll just like make make the
point that Beyonce had a very famous song called information.
Ah, right, right, right, right? Well, it well, in the context of
mass formation, it means the same thing, you know, we're all
standing in line, we're all we're all, we're all together
doing the same thing where we've, we've, we've fallen into
the ranks,
I guess we can go and get into number six. free floating
anxiety is the most painful psychological phenomena someone
can experience. So it's extremely painful, that leads up
to panic attacks to all kinds of extremely painful psychological
experiences. So what people want in the situation is something to
connect their anxiety to, they are looking for an explanation
for the anxiety. And now, if this free floating anxiety is
highly present in a population, and the media provide the
narrative, which indicates an object of anxiety, and at the
same time, describe a strategy to deal with this object of
anxiety, then all the anxiety connects to this object. And
people are willing to follow the strategy to deal with this
object, no matter what the cost is, that is what happens in the
beginning of mass formation. Then, in a second step, people
start a collective and heroic battle with this object of
anxiety. And then that way, a new kind of social bond emerges
and a new and a new kind of sensemaking. Suddenly, life is
all directed at battling the object of anxiety. And in this
way, establishing a new connection with other people
is one of my favorite clips.
You have the object of anxiety being race. And you have the
solution being critical race theory.
Yes. And how about the free floating anxiety? Which because
that I think and and the beauty of critical race theory and
people losing their shit over it? is I think they're also
under some form of spell and mass formation.
combos nice yeah, I mean, that's that's the it's even
information. You can have this back and forth dance, I would
think, you know, saying like, you have two sizes fixated on
the same object, can some people say, Well, this secure racism,
why don't you want to do it? You know, that kind of thing? And
it's like, well, do you have the other side, it's, well, I'm
gonna push back against this naturally, just because just
because Assad is pushing for it. So you brought up the point of
using statistics to manipulate people. So Maddie is gonna do a
very fascinating trick with these numbers that he rose out
from the economist. So let's go ahead and listen to him. But
then I have a sub clip of just him stating the numbers once
again.
And history indeed it is, you with nearly a dozen books on
race issues, including one literally called critical race
theory, I want to put it in the mail to Ted Cruz's office.
There's no holding out this week from the economist, which found
only 26% of Americans say they've heard a lot about
critical race theory with an additional 38% saying they've
heard a little of those a little over half say they have a good
idea of what critical race theory is, or they think they
do, and the majority view it unfavorably. If you take a look
at the number of mentions, the term critical race theory is
getting over on Fox News. It's gone through the roof in recent
months. How much does that worry you? How much does that tell you
that this country is not in a good place, especially on the
right
to interrupt. I am so tired of people with British accents
telling Americans that we suck.
It's quite common now.
f offline a,
you know, I used to wonder a lot about how, during the end of
reconstruction, people of color and people of goodwill
understood what was happening. Did they know that African
Americans were going to be completely disenfranchised and
not be able to vote for seven decades? Were they aware that
violence was going to take hold in capitals throughout the south
that they were going to be who's did the media participate in it?
Were they believing some of the lies or failing to ask the
questions failing to consider the source and this moment makes
me get a sense of what what it must have been like lies being
told people believing and people of goodwill being confused and
not knowing what to do or what to make of it.
She's following the template and proud of it.
You don't know it may you're confused. Yeah, if you don't
email. And naturally, if you're confused, you just you haven't
been taught yet. And we have to teach you. And once you once
you're taught, then you understand. It's kind of like
one of those things. But did you hear the numbers he wrote out
and didn't make any sense to you?
Well, the I was distracted when he rolled out the numbers by
saying they were from the economist and the economist,
since ever since they got their new editor as been just one big
woke heap a garbage as far as I'm concerned. So I can't I did
not really hear the numbers.
And by design, you didn't, because I took just the number
has rolled out of the numbers, and I put it in this little
slump sub clip, and we can even play it like two three times to
listen to the actual number that he's referring to.
There's new polling out this week from the economist, which
found only 26% of Americans say they've heard a lot about
critical race theory with an additional 38.
A lot, a lot only when he
percent has only heard a lot about that move. About 20.6%
right now, okay.
Yeah. Okay. 26% is heard a lot. Okay. All right. say
they've heard a lot about critical race theory with an
additional 38% saying they've heard a little
Oh, wait, wait, whoa, whoa. So let's add those two numbers up.
Okay. We're well over 50%.
Yep. have heard something. Yes. Okay.
All those a little over half say they have a good idea of what
critical race theory is.
Start.
Okay. That's those 54 Yeah.
They say they have a good idea what critical race theory is,
how can you Okay, now, um, is that 54%? Or the 38? Or the 26?
Because he said, though, I think the 38 Okay, so now we're down
half of 38. Have a good idea. So that's what 19% roughly 20 say
20 rounded up. Okay, now, we talked about 20% of people.
Yeah. Okay. Now I'm just saying he's doing a subset of a subset
of a subset, of course.
Great critical race theory is what they think they do. And the
majority view it unfavorably.
Okay, now the majority of the 54% of the 38%.
Yeah, I should actually look at those numbers. I don't know if
he's explaining it, right. But it's
what I'm saying is that this the way he's delivering these
numbers out, as she's saying 38%. And now those 45 mean, 54%
have a good idea. And half of those of that 45. Excuse me,
half of the majority of that 54% of the 38%. It's like we Yeah,
you can say this. more confusing.
He could have just said homina homina homina. And it wouldn't
have mattered if people didn't get it when he said it like
this, and they won't get it anything else he said
who fully in context in what he saw, he surmises from his data.
There's new
polling out this week from the economist, which found only 26%
of Americans say they've heard a lot about critical race theory
with an additional 38% saying they've heard a little of those
a little over half say they have a good idea of what critical
race theory is, or they think they do and the majority view it
unfavorably.
Yeah, it's, I think, I think the whole point is blahdy, blahdy,
blahdy, blahdy, blah, blah, blah, blah. The majority of you
what unfavorably? That was the message the point
that's right. Yeah, wish, what they use these numbers to make
it sound official. Make you Smith's house, make them sound
smart. You will feel subconsciously dumb, because you
couldn't follow that riddle of a word problem, and rightly so.
Um, because it's like, let me break out the pain in the pad
and actually figure out if I want to really understand. If
I'm listening, empathetically, I'm, I'm trying to understand
what he's saying here. But you really ran me into a circle. And
that's by design. Because once again, Eclipse Did you were
presenting our mass hysteria, it talks about both bogus
statistics.
I'm a professor in clinical psychology at against University
and I'm also I also have a master's degree in statistics.
But in this crisis, I've been taking the perspective of mass
psychology, yes, indeed, in the beginning of the crisis, I have
been studying the statistics and the numbers. And actually, I
noticed that they were often blatantly wrong. And at the same
time, people continue to believe in it and to go along with with
with the mainstream narrative, and that was why I started to do
to study it. Rather from from the perspective of mass
psychology and because I knew that mass formation has huge,
huge impact on individuals intelligence and cognitive
functioning. And if I had the feeling that this was the only
thing that could explain why highly intelligent people
started to believe, and, and unattractive and the numbers
that were, in many respects, utterly absurd.
I liked what you're doing here I like the comparison between
lockdowns and mandates and masks and, and hysteria and Black
Lives Matter or critical race theory and hysteria. And just so
you know, I know Mateus he reached out to me we have
contact so if we ever want him to, you know, we can we could
certainly suggest that he might want to do a little analysis of,
of critical race theory or BLM or just the hysteria, he might
be interested in that.
I think it's I think that'd be a wonderful idea because what
we're seeing is, as you mentioned before, and kind of
foreshadowing the all these topics are finding their way to
school board meetings and town hall meetings. And they're
having the same kind of response. Um, so now we have to
go to the other side, which being Fox News, and they have
and just in complete transparency, Carol Swain, who
she works for the 1776 Commission, and she's a former
Princeton professor, and what she's gonna do so you have this
16, skinny 1619 from Harvard critical race on one side, and
you have this on the other side, and she's gonna talk about Biden
and him promoting the US non existing CRT CRT group.
Well, yesterday, we reported on the Department of Education's
handbook for reopening schools, including a link to a radical
activist group that wants to send white teachers to anti
racist therapy. Yeah, we saw
that we said, What's that about? Well, now the administration
backtracking, hey, Department of Education spokesperson telling
Fox News quote, the department does not endorse the
recommendations of this group, the abolitionist teaching
network, nor do they reflect our policy positions. It was an
error in a lengthy document to include this citation.
Well, here with her reaction, Dr. Carol Swain, former
professor at Princeton and Vanderbilt University's and vice
chair of the reconstituted 19, or 1776. commission, good
morning to you. Good morning. Good morning. So Dr. Swain, they
say it's an error. But is it really an error, they had to
intentionally go in and put that link on page nine. So this is a
this is a guidebook to reopening our schools reopening because of
COVID. And on page nine, there's a link, you click on it, and it
directs you to this website.
Well, if it's an era, it's one of many that the Biden
administration has made. Ever since day one, it has aligned
itself with radical groups. It is pushed critical race theory.
And what I believe is happening is that Democrats are realizing
that this is a losing issue for
them.
Wait a minute, so they put a link into the apalis abolition
abolitionists teaching network
network, they put it in there, how to reopen schools guidance
for COVID
Wow, I'm looking at the I put in the show notes of course. Wow.
Oh,
I will you know, when I heard that, that abolitionists
teaching network, I had to go follow the network. So I find
Mr. Kevin Melrose where he's not famous. He's not famous, make
clear but he's a big supporter and believer in the
abolitionists teaching network and they're what they believe
and he goes on to speak on talking points by Dr. Benita l
love. And she's like the one of the founders of the abolitionist
teaching network. Now I am my empathetic space
which you're very good at. You're good at it mo you, you
can you got a lot of empathy.
I try. I really try. But I will not call cavea cook because of
my empathy for him. But if you had to, if it ever was one, and
I'm not saying this because I'm just saying that the way I will
be covering this on lost tapes
to dive a little deeper. Okay, I got all you got to do yes,
that'll be next Wednesday, everybody next Wednesday at
eight o'clock. Yeah, so but we're gonna get into being a co
conspirator. Notice that excuse me say it right. The
coconspirators guide to abolitionists teaching
all quotes and credit go to Dr. Bettina l love. Thank you.
Hello, my name is Kevin Melrose. I'm a middle school social
studies teacher with Indianapolis public schools, and
I'm here to talk with you today about abolitionists teaching.
abolitionists teaching is an idea brought forward by Dr.
Bettina l love, who's a professor at the University of
Georgia and one of the co founders of the abolitionist
teaching network. Now, what is abolitionists teaching?
abolitionists teaching is the practice of working in
solidarity with communities of color, while drawing on the
imagination, creativity, refusal, remembering, visionary
thinking, healing, rebellious spirit, boldness, determination
and subversiveness of abolitionists to eradicate
injustice in and outside of schools. abolitionists, teaching
works hand in hand with anti racist teaching. Now, all the
ideas I'm discussing today, I've gathered from this book, it's
absolutely incredible, and I highly encourage all of you to
read it. What I will be discussing today, we're going to
be focusing on what people that look like me with the similar
status and privilege can do today to become abolitionists.
abolitionist teaching means putting something on the line in
the name of justice, wanting dark folks to thrive and giving
up power and positions in order for dark folks to do so. The
work of recognizing and checking white emotionality is done
before you went to dark spaces. white folks have to get well on
their own terms before they engage with abolitionist
teaching.
Before before discussing, I need to hear the last 10 seconds I
just got I gotta go I gotta write down some of these terms.
abolitionist teaching means putting something on the line in
the name of justice, wanting dark folks to thrive and giving
up power and positions in order for dark folks to do so. The
work of recognizing and checking white emotionality is done
before you went to dark spaces. white folk have to get well on
their own terms before they engage with abolitionists
teaching.
Oh, my head hurts. Okay, dark books. Dark books.
No dark folks.
I said dark books he said dark dark dark dark folks. These
aren't Who the hell says dark folks
you I'm telling you kV I look heavy come close. If you're
listening. This Come on. You ever say dark folks around dark
folks?
You go get your ass kicked.
I don't know what they teach you over the network. But don't come
around. So called black people saying dark folks how dark dark
spaces.
Yeah. And then and then. And then just to balance it. White
emotionality? Woohoo. I think I had some of that for breakfast.
And what do you hear? This is the this is that teaching that
that violence administration is pushing. on me.
It's really phenomenal. Because what he said was nothing. It was
just a whole bunch of words and descriptions and then throw in
dark spaces and dark folks and white emotionality.
What is one level deeper? Is Well, you thought doing the
work. You thought we know doing the work was going to do it? No,
no, no, no, no, you have to go a level.
That was just the beginning that was just training wheels,
right, you have become deeper and really relinquish your
power. Which if you're giving your power away, that means you
still have power. And that's what these people don't seem to
understand. But what they want to do is not seem like the white
Savior, which has became a trope or I mean, like in these movies,
where like the white teacher comes to the black neighborhood
here
but it's also true. It's a cliche, but it's because it's
true.
That's what that's what they're trying to avoid. They're trying
so they're like I need you think that's real it's kind of like
the thing with like, when people were like going vegan is like
you know, that's I have vegan non GMO organic hand raised he
was always one level deeper with with how real it is. But it
still you come from a place that you had to give me something I
can't do it for myself. And that's what made it just totally
misses him. It totally it totally misses Coniston is to
say before you go to darks what awaited word dark spaces? I
think i think
i think that's if you go into clubhouse and then you got to
hit a special code Your turn left and then you get to the
dark space that
dark people in dark space and you know how I feel about words
yeah well dark First of all, folks I hate folks. Yeah, folks
would exit without x. Men trying to get they tried to get out in
the road out on black folk. No.
fo LX Yes.
Now. I don't know if he said folks The Met way of the non
binary non offensive way or if you stay with the tradition give
me more from this guy. Give me more from this guy. Let's go
ahead and get more conspiratorial Sue.
Now you may be thinking to yourself, Kevin, I am an ally. I
believe in social justice for everyone. Wow, that is great.
It's simply not enough today. We cannot just be our eyes. We as
white people must be co conspirators. Okay, allies do
not put anything at stake. And in today's day and age, that is
simply not enough. blackness is not a condition that needs
saved. White people that are trying to go into the classroom
to save black and brown children are totally misguided and have
no idea what these students actually need. The definition of
a co conspirator is to stand in solidarity and confront anti
blackness, a co conspirator functions as a verb and not now,
co conspirators can also be men who understand their privilege
and work to challenge and undo the patriarchy. However, we
cannot have these conversations about racism without talking
about whiteness, the time consuming and serious critique
and reflection of one's socio cultural heritage, which
includes identities related to race, ethnicity, family
structure, sexuality, class, abilities, and religion. Taken
side by side with a critical analysis of racism, sexism,
white supremacy and whiteness is the groundwork of coconspirators
teachers who say they're deeply concerned about social justice
or that they love all their children or I don't see color
but cannot say the words Black Lives Matter have no real
understanding what social justice is and what it truly
means to love, find joy and appreciate their students in
their students culture.
I'm mo you're the right guy to ask. Yes. Are you do you know of
any dark folks with an axe? Who would hear this guy and go oh
yeah, spot on.
No, I don't know of any because he's
like, Oh yeah, that's what we need. We need white people who
are co conspirators and they're clued in
yes that's that's
who was I was reading it
he's in a deep I mean,
it's like it's like he's he got he feels he got invited to the
cookout and he can and he's a PE he knows what to say now I don't
know it's very uncomfortable I
study and in like, he just verbatim spills out. Whatever
these this network is teaching in this is this is their ideal
product that they want to have on the backside of this, which
for me, personally, and I mean, if there may be other I'm sure
there's others out there like that. It still smacks of you
think I am a victim? Yes. Even though Yeah, Max that you're a
white Savior. It's like I acknowledge that my white Savior
and the fact that I acknowledge that it doesn't make me a white
savior now right? Like what it's
like to have a store on their website. I need to see if they
got any cooler hoodies with something stupid on it. Oh,
yeah. You can get to any of the abolitionists teaching network
is all in the pan African colors. Interesting. Okay. Yeah,
the red the black, the orange the black. The green,
of course has to be has to be on on message on point. Yeah. So he
what Kevin needs to realize and I'm speaking from a place I want
to help I know I didn't I didn't call Octavia cook. What I'm
saying is, if you want it to catch somebody in that role, he
would probably you probably even totaled around right? Because he
just doesn't want to be a fit and I get it. And he's probably
been browbeating so bad
What does he do? What What is his vocation? What does he do?
He's so
he's a he's a middle school social studies teacher.
Ah, no wonder. No wonder no wonder these parents are so
pissed off.
This is like I said, this is the product that they're trying to
create. To destroy the patriarchy. He said herself. It
could be an ally, you must say Black Lives Matter. And what
cabbie doesn't realize is, the Black Lives Matter brand is so
tattered in us and marred. Whenever you say that, no matter
if you're saying it's always better, or boots on the ground.
You're going to people here and in the binary world, they hear
Marxists. And for that, I have Patrice colors. one of the
founders of Black Lives Matter. addressing issues a Marxist is
not so y'all
asked I am ready to answer. Am I a Marxist? Let's get into it.
Hey everybody, my name is Patrice colors. I am the co
founder of Black Lives Matter. I'm also the executive director
of the Black Lives Matter global network, and welcome to my
youtube channel. We're gonna talk about something that I have
been accused of over the last several months. It's been
intense at times it's been hilarious at times, but I feel
like I need to set the record straight. Am I Marxist I've seen
a lot of y'all comments like backed by God them right here do
not fall for their trick. They're pushing a communist
agenda inside this is really funny. So despicable how Marxist
have infiltrated the civil rights movement and turned it
into a monster. She is trying to burn the whole system down
admitted train Marxists and blacklist better co founder
purchase colors send strongly worded letter to Joe Biden and
Kamala Harris, demanding they bow to their black liberation
domestic terror agenda. we warn you this was coming. And now
let's hear the truth. Colors is a Marxist, all right. I mean,
let's, let's just talk about it. Am I a Marxist? I'm a lot of
things. I do believe that Marxism is a philosophy that I
learned really early on in my organizing career. We were
taught to learn about the systems that were criticizing
capitalism. We were taught to understand why they were
philosophies that were criticizing capitalism.
Is she walking back that she said she was a trained Marxist
and proud of But is she walking that back?
No, she's walking in a circle because he went around is read
all the comments, saying basically that she's a self
admitted Marxist, which says yes, well trained Marxist. I
didn't I feel like I need to play the clip. Because we we've
addressed it enough. But then she goes through these
initiatives, the Kamala laugh.
Yeah. Well, and and very inappropriately, yeah. Yeah.
Right. Like, it's like, it's such a joke. How can these
people believe on a Marxist cuz I said, I'm a Marxist. With this
is the mind loop. And then she goes around? Yeah, I am. No, I
shouldn't say I'm a Marxist, which, you know, I believe in
Marxism,
I got the 39. I got the 39 second clip before saying.
I think that the criticism is helpful. I also think that it
might I think of a lot of things. The first thing I think,
is that we actually do have an ideological frame, myself. And
Elisa, in particular are trained organizers. We are trained
Marxists.
Okay, I heard that.
But there is a joke. It's like, I don't know how people can
think I'm a Marxist by me just saying it. I don't. We're pretty
racist. Have you to hold me to my words, I
don't even know what a Marxist is probably. Right.
But when you say you're attacking capitalism, that makes
my ears perk up, because I don't know about everybody else. But I
enjoy capitalism, when it's in its right form. And of course,
always criticize what we have now as some kind of corporatism
or Yes, in the sense of, the harder I work, the more I make,
you know,
when it works that way, when it works that way, then then it's
true capitalism. But if
you give me what I have now, compared to Marxism, I can't go
that route. Because I know what comes with it. Um, so yeah, so
that's when she lost a lot of people. And that's why she had
to go on her YouTube channel, and address this topic. But I
think poor kV doesn't realize when you use and I say that,
like I said, with empathy now, I don't think he realized when you
say Black Lives Matter, that's a loaded term now gets, it's no
longer it's no longer on Vogue.
Now is that once you attach that were critical race theory. Is
this is toxic is toxic. Yeah. It's very, it's like radioactive
is like, you know, we went for 1619. Black Lives Matter.
We got to get rid of Kevin and Kevin, he's no good. He's got to
go. They screwed it up.
I mean, cabbie is a product of what they've created. I mean,
this is you're looking at what they pointed out what they want
on the backside of the training. So with that said, let's go
ahead and get into the final clip. We can't be.
We cannot have conversations about racism without
conversations about intersectionality. When teachers
shy away from intersectionality, they shy away from ever fully
knowing their students, humanity and the richness of their
identities mattering cannot happen if identities are
isolated and students cannot be their full selves. Fighting
oppression is not just a hack. Hash tag. The real work is
personal, emotional, spiritual, communal. It is explicit with a
deep and intense understanding that loving blackness is an act
of political resistance. And it is a fundamental aspect to
teaching. darkling I'd
like to interrupt I just want to, I want to hear what I said
there again
communal, it is explicit with a deep and intense understanding
that loving blackness is an act of political
resistance. Loving blackness is an act of political resist
resistance.
Hmm but what he's starting to clip off with intersectionality
Yes. who coined the term intersectionality is saying
people have this critical race theory that was the Crenshaw
lady exactly, it's the holding of the door here black people
hold the door for critical race theory. And in that we're gonna
teach a whole bunch of intersectionality and if you're
a cisgendered male of the of the dark kind Oh, I've learned
a new term. I've learned a new term it's just what we are as
far as I know sis het
brown super straight yeah that's
that's what I mean.
If you wanted to find me I'm super straight
right? So in the in the critical race circles you are sis hat
which is almost like an epithet. It's almost like a slur.
I only got one badge only got my dark badge
you know more bad news for you. Only bad women women are you are
you midget Are you under four feet tall because you can get an
extra belt person
I know enough midgets I'm okay saying that they they'll try and
beat me up privilege on me That's right let's continue with
but that's how ridiculous it can get is now okay now it's
intersection now you see how quickly he slipped? Oh right.
from one to the other and that's that's how I was gonna go and
it's like how do you want to attack the patriarchy that's a
no for me you want attack capitalism? That's a no for me
and then you do the sleight of hand from dark dark topics to a
and that's that's very Can you better be careful I'm just
saying I'm just saying this once again for anybody that may be
listening. When you say sharp people don't be like oh, close
the marquee. Yes night yeah. Please do not use that term.
Please. Please I beg you. But now back to the Marxism Well,
let
me let me let me play the whole we didn't play the whole kV
closer. Oh, sorry. Yeah, no, I interrupted. So I'm going to
start from the beginning so we can get the full effect of the
full kV effect.
We cannot have conversations about racism without
conversations about intersectionality. When teachers
shy away from intersectionality, they shy away from ever fully
knowing their students, humanity and the richness of their
identities mattering cannot happen if identities are
isolated and students cannot be their full selves. Fighting
oppression is not just the hashtag. The real work is
personal, emotional, spiritual, communal. It is explicit with a
deep and intense understanding that loving blackness is an act
of political resistance. And therefore it is a fundamental
aspect to teaching dark kids. Only after unpacking and
interrogating whiteness, white teachers, really all teachers
must unpack how whiteness functions in their lives, then
they can stand in solidarity with their students communities
for social change. We're now going to transition to what
social studies teachers like myself can do to become
abolitionists, teachers. And that all starts with pedagogical
pedagogy should work in tandem with students own knowledge of
their community and grassroots organizations to push forward
new ideas for social change, and not to just be a tool to enhance
test scores or grades. pedagogy regardless of its name is
useless without teachers dedicated to challenging
systematic oppression with intersectional social justice
many public and charter schools have centered this idea of
character education and it has replaced civics education
however character education is anti black
oh really
wish that goes into respectability politics? Like
when you when you try to teach people you know West respectable
or not. That's that's completely racist. But the interrogation of
whiteness, like these are these terms. People from the other
side of the binary coin look at it it's like, you want to
interrogate white people? Hmm, yeah, I mean, I wish that has
his own imagery of black spotlight there swinging where
we go in the forest. Yeah. That kind of thoughts. Oh, by the
way,
that this guy How old is he? He can't be older than 2829
kick he doesn't look very old at all. I mean, he's probably fresh
out of college, maybe four or five years.
So this is this is it? This is the social studies. Now, of
course, the problem which I'm recognizing now is that what
he's saying and and all these things it is it is not critical
race theory. So when people say critical race when Ted Cruz says
critical race theory Yeah, and everyone who was doing this
gonna say you have no idea what you're talking about this like
critical race theory, because it's not is just evil. Lame is
lame. It's
not good. It's not perfect. It's perfect because it's not what
the topic is because we actually say that word and go read the
book. It's a law theory. Yes, but the way they're selling it
to the middle schools and elementary schools and high
schools, as this rethinking of race think saying things
everything through a racist or racial lens, almost a racist, a
racial lens. In this do that it's like you have to admit that
you're racist. Going back to white fragility
gotta start you gotta gotta atone the white man got a tone
right off the bat.
Right? Which means not even atonement because we know what
that means as well because you can't force a town man if he's
not a person has to want to atone your mate like if I want
to do this
Oh hold on a second of the white people who I know who are
completely into this mode they really do want to atone they
really do feel the guilt they they in fact do interrogate
themselves on this they do workshops. This we believe he
has a lot of people who are doing that and they're very
nice. I think there's also a lot of people I've heard talk in
social settings when they talk a big game but are they going to
go sign up for the you know the for the course now? That but Oh,
yes. Oh, so important kit? Yeah, me, Sam,
you want to be a real ally. I mean, not an ally, because he
said you need to be a co conspirator. Allah is not
enough. All you people out there with you just doing the talk.
It's time to walk the walk, it's time to put something on the
line can be said it, you have to put something on the line, like
your name on a check. You're saying Yeah, handed out but
that's what they want. And that's the whole point I want.
I want to try and get something out before I forget. Or at least
before it passes. So and I think this is a true scenario because
I used to hang out back in the Austin days with the Obama bots.
And so I you know, and I was accused of very early on years
ago, less 66 and a half years ago by Professor Pennebaker, who
was at one of these dinners and he's a big fan of his work he
does the performative that's his that's his big body of work. And
he and his wife are there well we're just sitting there saying
well you know you have white privilege and I'd never heard of
this. So what are you talking about so obvious to these
people? They they are so racist without knowing it. Here's how I
perceive it so they'll talk these big games always so
important and then there will be a name and it'll be someone you
know it's not going to be kV it'll be you know, either like a
Patrice collars or I can I can actually just go down here let's
see. I can just go to the Apple abolitionists teeth abbis hard
to say for me abolitionists teacher network and just look at
our people. And let's see we have we have let's just grab one
we've got Ashley she her hers. activists and residents so the
way it would go there's dinner parties. I met Ashley she her
hers and she's the actress in residence at the abolition she's
so impressive. She is I mean she is she's just oh my god you have
to meet her that I'm doing my Becky voice and so they will
take a person a dark person and they will and they elevate them
and then and it's almost like a worshipping of you know this is
oh my goodness she smells so good. Yes. Oh, we all can learn
so much from her. And I've always it's gives me the creeps
when people do that.
I've set a term I don't know if I coined or not, but not call
that conspicuous. Consciousness.
conspicuous. conspicuous consciousness. Okay.
Right. So conspicuous consumption is when you buy
things for people to know that you have money that to know that
you have Well, I'm gonna buy the
yes versus the words virtue signaling in a way of right but
what what
you're saying is the conspicuous curse on consciousness. is I'm
gonna go find Ashley and put her into my circle. Yeah, that way I
can let other people know and like I said virtue signaling is
one of those terms. And like I said, I don't use those terms
because it is it has it has its own meaning now it's not actual
meaning I agree. Yeah, I agree. Right? So when you say
conspicuous consumption consciousness is your want to be
conscious so people can know that you're conscious you know
of our you're down, you know, for the calls that kind of
thing. So right.
And by the way, my family my whole family is like this. All
white, extremely upper class, either political or in
intelligence services. And they're not racist. I know my
family, but it's just insincere. I know, they don't really mean
it is pre emptive.
It's worse than that, right? It's pre it means pre emptive
is, excuse me, is Excuse me, is pre emptive in the fact that
before I even that notion, or it can be thought that I'm
right, let's let me let you know right away. Yeah, right. Let
me get the book man on white fragility book laying on the
coffee table. Let me put the Black Lives Matter. Yeah, we're
on.
I was on Megyn Kelly today. And of course, right off the bat I
named check mo facts. You know what I felt like saying like,
No, I have I have a black friend. I have one black friend.
By the way. I laid the black clean white clean on Megyn.
Kelly, she loved it. We were talking about Merkel.
Merkel. Okay. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Yeah, you gotta hear this. It was it was dynamite. It was like
Moe facts all the way you'll love it.
That's the that's the thing, though. is is is it pre emptive?
Or is out of fear? Or is it just out to be true? empathy that you
want to understand somebody? And that's what we do here, right?
You come here, seek first to understand then to be under.
And I don't think it's out of empathy to understand people. I
remember my uncle called me one day. And he was, you know, he
was he was an ambassador. And he was, you know, all kinds of, you
know, in Korea. I mean, he's CIA. He's been around, right. So
he's been an interesting situation. And he's, he's way
retired. This is maybe 1015 years ago. He calls me up, said,
Adam, I got a you know, he was working for some think tank, the
Korea Society of assurance of front for something else. And he
was, he's the president of the Korea Society. Did you know
Adam, I'm going to be talking to some inner city youth. And I
really want to be able to connect with them. And I guess
he was calling me like MTV guy and maybe have some hip hop tips
for him or something. He says, so you know, should I let them
know that I for years, I walked around with an Uzi strapped to
my arm and would that connect with them? I was speechless
small. I was fucking speechless.
Only if you held it sideways. Yeah, exactly.
If you if you can do like gangster like that, that you'll
connect with otherwise stay away from that.
That's why we have to do what we do here is to be empathetic.
Because like all these people mean when they mean Well, yes.
He doesn't mean you know, but when you go by in airy, it's
like either Are you giving a barring your option? Or you
you're a racist? Co conspirator. It's like, okay, yeah. Well, I
don't want to be a racist, so I had to be a co conspirator. And
that's why what happened
to ally what happened to ally Why don't
cuz you don't have anything on the mind. If you just ally
you're just talking to Tom.
I hope you got it. Yeah, you
gotta give some of that privilege which I don't
understand how you do that. Let me here's a quarter share of my
privilege. Yeah, exactly. You want to wear that around I don't
miss is still walking the walk me still talking to talk. But
it's just I'm willing to if I'm if I'm pushed to it, I'll put
something on the line. But what shows me is when you hear
communist and Marxism and the reason why that is, I have a
clip here. It was actually was an ad from msnbc from one,
Melissa Harris Perry, on who owns kids.
We have never invested as much in public education as we should
have. Because we've always had kind of a private notion of
children, your kid is yours and totally your responsibility. We
haven't had a very collective notion of these are our
children. So part of it is we have to break through our kind
of private idea that kids belong to their parents, or kids belong
to their families and recognize that kids belong to whole
communities. Once it's everybody's responsibility and
not just the households, then we start making better investments.
All your kids belong to us. Yeah. Interesting.
In NES das that was an old clip that comes
I miss her. I miss her. She She, although no joy read is even
more fun but I do miss. Mister she was wrong optics. Oh, no
kidding. I was with you. Yeah, no, she was definitely and she
and she was she was
because they had to go next this big conspicuous consciousness.
It's like, well, we can't have Melissa Harris Perry out there.
You know, she's awful, fair skinned. Dark person,
really dark, dark spirit that joy read as.
Yeah, so that's that's where you see this kind of shift. And it's
in this bar. It's like I said it's a conscious decision by
whoever's making the calls. But that's what troubles me. And
that's what troubles a lot of other people when you hear this
talk of your parents, your kids don't belong to you. We can
teach your kid Well, we want to there's a heated gubernatorial
race in Virginia right now. Yes. And it's your backyard.
And what was there some some scandal the guy said something
or give us a rundown?
Yeah, he's basically saying the same thing that she said that we
could teach her? Well, it's our job to teach your kids what? On
what they need to know, not the parents. And it's like a hit ad
that they're running right? Wrong verbatim. But it's the
same thing. It's like, we know better than you. Um,
the scary thing is they mean it.
Yes. Yes. And and that's why you see what's happening at the
school board meetings of, I mean, look at California about
not asleep over and COVID. But if somebody can tell you, your
kids can't come to school unless they have the shot. I mean, like
where does it stop it now of course, we had immunization and
those kinds of things of that nature. But it is, the binary
thing is I'm gonna jab it in your eye, you know, so I'm gonna
make you. You're saying fold and show you who has the real power
and these power. Okay,
exactly. All of these moves every same would cavies doing?
It's supposed to come across as now you can do some stuff. You
can work on it, you can help you co-conspirator. But if you don't
give you say no, if you say no. You say yes. I'm nice cabbie.
I'll make me mad. cavies. Exactly. He got less spicy there
at the end to me if you notice his tone change.
So that I'm just going back because my head was kind of
filled with it, because I know that Megyn Kelly thing at home
is important is because this was about Sharon Osborne, which to
me, that's how I got to the Oprah thing because you know,
it's more than just the n m five M and you know, ratings frokost
that they're stirring up. But they had some so you know,
Sharon Osborne, he got in a fight because she supported
Piers Morgan, so she was supporting racist. And then
what's the Cheryl, what's the girl's name? The woman's name?
I know you're on the target.
Cheryl? Cheryl. Cheryl. I think it's Sheryl Underwood.
Underwood. Yes. Underwood. Yeah, sure. So then they had a
recording of her and Sharon Osborne in her dressing room.
And Gosh, I wish I had that. I mean, I only heard it because I
was listening to the show, where she says to share knowledge when
you have to understand we are under enormous pressure. If
there's anything that even sniffs of racism, if we don't
call it out, then then we get a cost that on the street. And I
thought that was an important thing, because it's easy to hate
Cheryl for what she did. I humanized her in that moment. I
said, Okay, I don't think you're very intelligent that you just
going to let that happen. But Wow, when you're talking about
your career, because, you know, people could could cancel her
easily, and it seems like that's a real thing.
And the ones that are really getting cancelled are the ones
on their own side. We sell with Rachel Nichols over ESPN, fame.
Tape. And these tapes, these emails, I don't know if you
don't keep up with sports, but Jon Gruden on the Raiders coach.
Yeah, they got him up out of the office of emails and the first
email he sent a guy had big lips and people were crying on TV. Oh
my god. And it's such a racial trope. It's like the same big
black lips I mean I don't know you say you have big lips cuz
he's black. Or they just say that he had big lips I don't
understand. I don't I don't get it either way. It's like
Well first of all, they wanted him out for some reason because
this doesn't happen just this is just like oh he stumbled across
some old stuff he said they wanted him out. I know what was
going on and why
but I just got to show you that this is how they're digging up
emails and emails. He wouldn't even if he wasn't in coaching in
the NFL at the time, but then they came back the the big lips
didn't give him some a found some homophobic Yeah.
And is there an end goal to this? Do you think that it's
well let's, you know, let's clear some people out of the way
and what and we can move in it because it doesn't seem like
that's actually happening
which is a side sidebar conversation. I think with Jon
Gruden situation they used him to get the team to Vegas and now
the NFL no longer needs him and the razor Raiders are the
bastard child of the NFL I understand that ownership al
Davis when baby just what was it when baby winter just when my
dad would kill me cuz that's his favorite team. If I got that
quote wrong, but I think it's when baby when, if I'm not
mistaken, um, but he was the owner and president of the AFL
CIO, the Raiders have always been a redheaded stepchild of
the NFL when they merged.
Okay, so this is gonna sound stupid. So the Raiders are now
in Vegas. Yes, okay.
Now because they moved from Oakland, Oakland like it was a
stronghold of support for these teams they brought they brought
Gruden and smooth it over kind of like the Barclays Jay Z thing
right? We need somebody with you know, sway with the crown right?
He was
a handsome handsome looking white coach,
right? He just fit the Raiders mo this tough guy like toughest
nails guy yeah he got into Vegas now they got a good foothold in
Vegas like now we got to get rid of this guy and if we do it to
the writers you know wow
they could have they could have just asked him to leave seem
severe Why do you want to destroy a guy?
Well you still got NFL still has to remind people that they're
woke they'll know they'll know what probation you as a
web work probation everybody what
probation you're saying you gotta let let them know that we
still we still are still Excuse
me. You have to come over here and talk to mo fax your parole
officer.
So see we started. Let's go okay. 16. So let me set this
Right, right, quit. So this is again, this is Kimberly
Crenshaw, and she's talking to joy read this time, oh, it's
gonna be a party party. She let her hair down. Like she couldn't
do it Maddie, but they're gonna discuss critical race theory is
explained neither, as explained as neither Marxist nor racist by
the leading scholar Kimberly Crenshaw, who co developed the
framework of the study and coined this term.
Some of you may be wondering, what's the deal with the GOP
freakout over critical race theory. It's everywhere, and was
even used as a GOP call to arms at a conservative Christian
conference last week.
The old Marxism used economics to gain control the new Marxism.
The new Marxism uses identity politics. And the result is
something that looks nothing like America. There's no reason
to believe that this new Marxism will result in anything but what
the old Marxism resulted in
critical race theory is racism, appearance. And it should be
rejected by every American of every race.
We tell you right now, critical race theory is bigoted. It is a
lie. And it is every bit as racist as the Klansmen and white
sheets.
Okay, but here's the thing. None of this is random. This is the
result of the highly manufactured strategy created by
season's political operatives, looking for the perfect wedge
issue to take back power, somebody to combat the energy of
the multiracial coalition that took Georgia and something to
replace blue lives matter since January 6, expose that slogan as
a sham conservatives in Congress note and started chattering
which was then ingested into the feeder system of Fox News. The
tagline disseminated and the war against critical race theory
took off. Roof
chatter,
you know, in your system, you know what I really like, because
I see this all day long part of my job on Fox, they're playing
msnbc on MSNBC, they're playing Fox on CNN, they're playing
both. They are, they're in the drain, and they're circling, and
they're all going and no one's watching this crap anymore.
Which is great for us, but also sad if they go away. Because we
do need the entertainment. But this is this is this that when
you're blaming your colleagues, you imagine your colleagues over
another station, I mean, that's dumb, it's petty. And that's all
I've got
this critical race theory and these binary terms are the
rating drivers. So they have to get involved in it and it works
for the politicians like Because it does get I mean like when you
hear critical race theory I mean, I have to say on the right
it's a scary term for them to use like, Oh, you don't want
that car that CRT you know that critical race theory?
Oh no, it's it's totally disingenuous the way they're
playing into it. And now I understand the Ted Cruz thing.
So they said they've got the the critical race can and pointed at
Cruz is nuts. This is gonna blow him up. And that's part of
Texas, Texas they think is in play, you know, they're doing
all kinds of Democrats are doing all kinds of things in Texas,
they're really trying to turn it blue. So taken out, Ted Cruz
would be I guess, something that they think is important, because
that's what they're doing.
Yes. The problem is, when you start going into the schools,
that's going to be a major problem. So
Well, yeah. Because it's not about politicians. It's parents,
it's parents who are standing up it's way beyond Ted Cruz.
Right? And this is they're just latching on to the momentum on
the ground. Yeah, yeah, of course. They see the same thing
with the media, the media is latching on to all the critical
race theory in in title is Yeah, it's gonna be a big, big, big
winner with the writings. You're right. Good point. I mean, like
I said, and it just keeps everybody in the fervor to 2022
that's all intended for that Yeah. Right. I mean, it gives
you an sob story to talk about outside of COVID right I mean,
like it's like people get COVID fatigue so then we go back to
the race you got to have something that nothing else
really talked about I mean to be honest with you. So these are
two topics that they've chosen to be the big deals for 2022 so
now we got to go back to your clips and now this is leaders
know this you want to set this up or you know
Yeah, yes well this is once the spell has been cast that's when
the manipulation starts and I think I'm not sure if it's this
clip but there's that may be a little extra thing about the so
called leaders This is the professor De Smet again,
this was the Masters can only exist if they have an enemy ever
they have an object of anxiety that's something that was very
well described by Orwell in 1984 where he where he talked about
the region warrior who was a constant threat, but nobody
actually knew whether he really existed or not and but masters
and the operating system always have have to invent new enemies,
new objects of anxiety because if there will be no object of
anxiety, the Masters would not have a reason to exist because
one of the main reasons is the controlling anxiety so and the
leaders of the masses feel that if there would be no object of
anxiety anymore, the masses would wake up and what would
they do if they wake up? The first thing they will do is kill
their leaders.
Yes, I'm going to send this episode to the professor maybe
he'll do some deconstruction on on CRT with his expertise.
So with that in mind you will see the vested interests the key
people in the via binary trap cuz we just not saying we got to
a post racial anywhere near is the fact that a lot of people
could walk away from the George Florrie case and like we got our
guy yes and he's going for good justice was done I went and did
my March I walked across the Black Lives Matter mural charity
live freeze and lay like no no, no, no, no, no, no you're saying
we got to keep them we got to keep them jacked up so this is
just another thing and it's just that like the leaders know
always like we got to keep them in a
state of state of fear.
right because it is the democrats needed and is ready to
meet for the republicans no pun intended because the more they
say it the more they put out race is black. The Black Lives
Matter and her confession her confession is so critical. And
when I say her I'm sorry for the creek. Yeah, Patrice colors. Her
confession that they are Marxist. Just tanks everything
for now.
Show me what you write about. I think is that the CRT is is
great for both parties. They both like using this as their
tentpole issue and pontificating about it is really unproductive
for anybody.
Of course, but there is no progress leaves us in the dead
missing in a deadlock and it just keeps it like standard
leaders alive. I'm not saying Easy, easy wherever listening,
just from his analysis. The constant keeping new information
keeps them alive if you want to say I met Fourthly their
political careers or even you're saying it's literally
their literal lives. Yeah, absolutely. Well, okay, well
that's interesting because we're going to have to see CRT
critical race theory for what it's being used for, and not
what it really is.
Yeah, it's, what do you call it? object of anxiety. That's,
that's what it is. Um, so I guess we can go in and let our
joy and
I was hoping we're hoping we go back to this. Here we go.
No one wants a Boogeyman near their kids, and certainly not in
their classrooms. The operatives know this, those fears got
played up. And now along with the fear of trans kids taking
over Junior High handball, parents are fighting with school
boards in cities and towns across the country over
curricula that they believe teaches white kids that they are
racist. None of this is actually happening. Who cares about a
little old thing like the truth when you have the perfect
campaign buzzword for 2022? It even has the magic word in it,
race. Joining me now is Kimberly Crenshaw, founder and executive
director of the African American policy forum and the legal
scholar who coined the term critical race theory. So what is
your fault, man? Am I you know, I tripped over the curb this
morning and I went critical race theory. does everything bad at
the end, the cicadas y'all really need to stop with the
cicadas critical race theory that was not nice.
Everything in the bag.
I just wrote down a few of the notes of what people are calling
critical race theory, Marxism, racism, bigoted. Let's Let's
start with the Marxism. That's their favorite one. They're
using that every single time. And I hate to ask you, I hate to
ask dumb questions. So please don't think that critical race
theory Marxism,
don't worry Joyce will do that for so
that's the that's the thing. If you say critical race theory,
they'll point to her book and the MV official academic term of
critical race theory. But that's not what it is. And George did
tell truth bear. She says that a didn't it doesn't teach white
kids that they're racist. No, it teaches their teachers that
their race. The teachers teach the kids. So there is, like I
said, they work these things very carefully. And what the
product they want as cabbies in every classroom is constantly
reminding people to you know, be coconspirators
cavies, I get kevi in every classroom,
right? It's sad to say, but that's that's the goal of this
whole thing. And they met they can never shake that Marxist
term. But because of what Patrice said, is just anything
that's tied to race now is tied back to black lives. It's gonna
be Marxist, it's gonna be Marxist. And this is a first
this is not a first in the fact that we talked about the
Communist Party in, in racial dealings all the way back to the
1930s or even early I mean, yeah, definitely even earlier
than that. But um, in America, but now this is the first time
we had it I actually put out on the front where as you know,
it's very clear to see what's going on here. Um, so
yeah, it's clear to us
this what No, we you, you can always go back and play the clip
of her of her saying she's a Marxist and that that's not just
from the Republican side. I mean, I don't know where they
they I don't want this misconception in that black
people are for Marxism, not that I speak for all black people.
But that just never took I mean, because you had a lot of other
groups that had Marxist views, that it never they never could
get a strong haul because that just doesn't support you know,
the the average economic view of the average black American
business such things that no we we want to be credited for our
work you know, I mean, we're just like every other American
in that aspect of it, you know, we want to get paid more. We
don't want people to tell us what to do or our kids we want
to have property ownership, these things are big to us. So
please, they'll never get a strong hole. And like I said,
they they she burned herself when she said that, but you hear
the language the joys use the operative these these loaded
terms, and I think this projection
is calling it a strategy by by the Republicans, whereas the
strategy is this whole setup,
right? And that's the whole thing and it might work for them
because as long as they get their republicans talking about
race period, they can always lay with them the racist in the mind
the masses, so maybe from that aspect of It's like I say, if
so what would what would you? political consultant, Mr. mo?
What would you advise Ted Cruz to do or Marco Rubio or any of
these dudes would not respond from. from a political
standpoint? Yeah. Gas, no brakes in the Marxism. Yeah, I mean,
it's a winner. Winner. Oh gas, no brakes.
no brakes, because it works. And that's what gets on there. I
mean, you hear her addressing it anytime you hear him trying to
bring it in by Oh, please the critical race theory that you
discussed at Harvard? I mean, that's that kind of thing. Is
that based in Marxism? No. But you heard what can be said and I
trust can't be more than Kiran Shah. So in this aspect of it,
because I think she's, she's a bit out of touch on where
they're taking this as well. With that, I think we stopped at
two, let's go ahead and get into three.
It's critical race theory, Marxism. Well,
you know what, here's here's the thing, like a critical
answer the question answer the question, you know what,
here's the thing.
That performative that's performative right there. You
know, joy, instead of that's a great question. Nope. Let's find
out the answer. If she's gonna give an answer.
It's critical race theory, Marxism.
Well, you know what, here's here's the thing, like, critical
race theory is not so much a thing. It's a way of looking at
a thing. It's a way of looking at race. It's a way of looking
at why after so many decades, centuries, actually, since the
emancipation, we have patterns of inequality that are enduring,
they're stubborn. And the point of critical race theory
originally, was to think and talk about how law contributed
to the subordinate status of African Americans of indigenous
people, and an entire group of people who were coming to our
shores, from from Asia. And the point was, quite frankly, to
understand the problem in order to intervene in it to understand
why the greatest hopes for our republic were not being
realized, even though these hopes were encoded in law. So
critical race theory just inherits the beliefs and the
hopes of Frederick Douglass of Martin Luther King, basically
want the law to do for the freed people, what the law did for
enslavers. And we picked that up in the 70s and 80s, after the
civil rights movement to say, Okay, so now we got this big
civil rights movement, we have all these laws on the books, but
things really aren't looking as different as they should if we
are really the society that we say we are.
What I had to say is, if you're dealing with this from the 70s,
and 80s, you're a lawyer, right? And you've been dealing with how
law has been used as a tool or, either I mean, at worst, Matt,
best ineffective for saying so called black people, I will find
you ineffective, because you've been doing this for for 40
years, nothing's happened. What do they want? What does she
want? I mean, what what do you want?
She wants to stay where she's at in a nice comfortable spot where
pontificate about this, these theories or race, and not
actually go into trial law, or these things that actually like,
Hey, I got an idea. How about you take on these algorithms?
Right, is this bailed actually is impacting that's a real,
tangible problem that's based off a race. We've covered this
here. How these algorithms calculate Ben? Yes, yeah, that's
real legal problems, not what I'm gonna get.
But have you ever heard maybe it's in some of the other clips,
but does she ever mentioned exactly what legal issues are
racist back
to reconstruction, reconstruction and civil rights?
And it's all about voting. I mean, let's just be honest,
here. It's everything's about voting. Now. It's about the
voting laws. And you saw with Georgia and Texas and all these
other places, it's all about the access to voting and making it
easier for people to vote, which I don't understand how that's
very easy. If the polls are overwhelmed, make more polls. I
mean, that's a very simple act, but it's like, well, we don't
need to show ID either. And it's like, we've proven that that's
the crazy idea to think that's racist to say somebody had to
show ID to think that black people don't have IDs. It's
like, I mean, but this is, their, their, they're brought up
there to fear airtime, you know, to keep people engaged into the
racial conversation into 2022. Because there's a lot at stake
in that race. And they they've lost a lot of leverage, um, pal,
if you want to talk about that, I mean, it's it's the whole
thing called a mandate that a lot of people have dark people
are not feeling so how about those? How about those silver
rights? How about we jump on that but it's like no, no, no.
That's not true. That's not true. It's only Republicans who
are anti vaxxers it's not true what you say?
Yeah. Your numbers are awfully low on on the who's enthused
about taking the shot with the dark folks with an X. Right? So
um, yeah, so that's that's the whole thing with but we got some
more clips with him. Just let him wrap up with the last two
clips.
So we put about the task of understanding how long wasn't
just the neutral referee. Law wasn't always on our side. In
fact, law was less on our side than four on our side. And we
wanted to tell these stories in order to do better with the
promises that are embedded in the Constitution. That's what's
in critical race theory.
So is critical race theory does is there a K through 12
curriculum that right now is being taught I'm sorry, I know
it's a dumb question. But is there a K through 12 curriculum
on critical race theory that's being taught in schools around
this country? Well,
Lovejoy if it was news to most Americans, that critical race
theory was in K through 12. It was news to me, too. I'm one of
the co authors of one of the few books on critical race theory, I
think I would know, if we were being taught in K through 12. I
mean, basically, critical race theory, classic critical race
theory is a law school course. And it's really, you know, not
taught as widely as I would hope it would. Now, here's the deal.
This is not about whether anything called critical race
theory is in K through 12. What they're calling quitter,
critical race theory doesn't exist anyway.
Oh, okay. Even better. So, critical race theory is not
there. But whatever you're calling it, that's not real. Go
away.
actual question, enjoy something completely different? Yeah. The
question you should ask was, so what is being confused for
critical race theory? Yeah. K through 12. That would be the
actual Well, nothing she knows. Yeah. But it's not there's
nothing because she said it. There's nothing that she was she
hit it out there now.
There's nothing there.
So what is that? That was just linked into that document on
page nine with the abolitionist teaching network. What What is
that? I mean, these these, these classes that we're seeing these
teachers are being forced to attend. What is that?
Yeah, well, that but I think you said it earlier, critical race
theory is what? Got the teachers into this mode. And now they're
just off the hook.
Right? It's like I've been
there. They got the they got the programming, they got the
program.
I got to teach it to my pupils.
Do you think they have a little badge like a decoder ring when
you're part of the club and your little Appalachians network?
Yeah, ID card or something?
I'm sure they do. He probably in the network. If you Google me,
I'm in the network.
Did you look into that thing? How, whose funding that was that
I did not look into I mean, like I said, it's just if I did not
look, I didn't have a chance to look into the actual network. I
stopped with KB, because that was partially to see is that
this year, just your fruit tree is producing, I'm good to go. I
need to know. But of course, I'll do I'll do more research
into it as time permits. But I want to stick on talking to the
expert, the co author, the no co creator of critical race theory
and her denial that it even exists. So let's wrap up with
them with number five.
It is a backlash effort to reverse the racial reckoning,
unlike any we've seen in our lifetime. And as you pointed out
at the beginning, they can't say,
you know, I want to hear her say that again.
It is a backlash effort to reverse the racial reckoning,
unlike any we've seen in our lifetime. And as you pointed out
at the beginning, they can't say, you know, we're for racism,
they can't say Derrick Sheldon should have killed George Floyd
with his hand in his pocket looking like he was completely
without a care in the world. They couldn't say that. So they
they they looked around and found of a strange sounding
theory that they could put all of the grievances and
resentments in and mobilize people around this Boogeyman and
in and if our side can't really understand what's going on, it's
going to work. It's worked in the past. We weren't to end
reconstruction and it can work to end this reckoning, too.
Yeah, all right. Cuz that was purely political
yeah that's what it's all about voting in 2022 and I'll say this
as you heard her say she said the the our racial reckoning She
said she's so tapped in a bow she wouldn't know about things
were a little does she know that it's not a politically correct
to say rational reckoning
I liked it actually
it rolls off the tongue very easily but the Washington Post
opinion piece says do not call it a racial reckoning the race
towards equality equality has barely begun that's headline
Really? Of course yes. And then also the CNN has one as well is
there was no racial reckoning. So she's out of the loop that
one. No ratio reckoning has exist. I mean, it doesn't exist
or you know, hasn't? Hasn't hasn't realized yet. Yeah, it
hasn't materialized yet. But like I said that she's
antiquated and not to meet your ages or anything. But she
actually thinks that George floor was progress, but not to
the radicals. That's nothing that's like a no, it's like, No,
no, no, we got to keep pushing.
Well, I'm sad to say this woman is just to be dismissed from
here on out because she's, she's no good.
She's just, she's coming into her own terms of like,
intersectionality. When you ask her what it is, like, what you
know, what's the thing? That thing you know, the thing. So
that's the first block. I think so now's the time to thank the
people that make this podcast happen. Our producers
Yes. And as always, we'd like to remind ourselves what we're
doing here,
right man and the black man have to be able to sit down at the
same table, the white man has to feel free to speak his mind
without hurting the feelings of that Negro. And the so called
Negro has to feel free to speak his mind without hurting the
feelings of the white man, then they can bring the issues that
are under the rug out on top of the table and take an
intelligent approach to get the problem solved. But the only way
to do it.
Yeah, that's right. Y'all can go looking for some critical race
theory or just listen to mo facts with Adam Curry. This is
where we solve it all. The whole world working on it very hard.
We are a non commercial podcast. And when I say non commercial,
it means that we don't have commercials. We don't take
corporate money, we have no sneaky ways. In fact, we rely
entirely on the producers of the podcast. And that means that we
expect you to feedback any value if you got value by listening to
the show or any of the episodes. return the favor. You can do
that with your time your talent, your treasure. A lot of people
like to combine them where they'll donate, become an
executive producer and add some information that we that we
didn't know about. It's it's a very very, very beautiful way to
build this together. 68 episodes we're just barely getting
started. I think we've only just scratched the surface if the
baby and let us thank our Wow, right off the bat. We got our
first executive producer and also shot Carla 20 is blaze own
ambala Jimmy James comes in with $500 Nice. By the way, Mo I

and you know, no agenda. People already stole the biscuit. You
know what? We borrow? We buy? We do? We do? Yeah, this is all
good. It's all good. I just want you to know that I just wanted
to fess up that it was happening. Anyway, back to our
big baller top executive producer for today. And so very

Leonard Berg's ma just bias that way. 9999 9999 just finished
listening to the Q hopium episode, you guys blew my mind
once again. I've been hitting my friends in the mo facts mouth
left and right and I was just telling one of my best friends
that with all the issues going on in the world, all the smoke
and mirrors all the spin and all the shenanigans The only thing
you can do to protect your well being is to never go full retard
that's a Tropic Thunder reference. Never go all in of
course, but rather be conspiracy analysts not conspiracy
theorists, I can dig it Please accept my three times. Three
333 33 donation in exchange for some mo facts karma salute.
Absolutely. Thank you very much,
much appreciated. And I didn't want to mess with
the success

So we left off on the racial reckoning. So what I want to do
is go in find out the actual meaning of
reckoning racial reckoning, okay, or reckoning? Yeah,
reckoning. Yes?
Can I can I make a guess without knowing just Sure. is a
derivative from German? For the bill for the revenue?
I'm not sure if you see it from the bill from the bill.
Yeah, like if you get a bill that you call for the reckoning
the reckoning?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So okay, yeah.
Suddenly,
you caught your clothes. Okay. Yeah, that's that's almost
almost it. But there's other meanings as well. It's a very
tricky word. It can be used in so many formal and informal
ways. So I have I, I swear English, that's a YouTube
channel. He's an English teacher. And he has a wonderful
English accent. So going into 23.
Okay, we have a couple of phrasal verbs with this as well,
to recomm to set an account, but it's more common to reckon to
work out the final amount like to tally up to balance the
debits and credits. So look, you pay for everything today, and
we'll recommend up at the end of the day. Yeah, we'll equalize it
again. To settle account. Okay, so to reckon, I reckon I think
it's my opinion or to calculate to read Come up to settle that
to set an account to tally up if you lie through reckon you're
going to have to reckon on this happening. Expect to reckon with
to deal with. Yeah. And then somebody to be reckoned with or
something to be reckoned with a powerful force, that's going to
be difficult to recommend. Okay, the origin of this word comes
from proto Germanic, there's a word recognize, which means to
count, and to explain. But this word record, in nearly all of
the senses I've given you, it's informal. It's great for an
informal conversation in the pub, but in something semi
formal, or something formal writings, particularly, I think
my opinion is, I calculate by figure to set up an account
truly expect to deal with to anticipate Okay, so to record
Okay, there's a lot more meaning to it than I initially thought.
Cuz you were you were in the air formal way. But he also gave the
formal meanings me something to reckon with a force or to settle
up, like, as you said, in an informal way, too. Either way.
She said that with her being a lawyer, aka a word wizard. How
does she mean that ratio reckoning? Is it like a ratio
forced to be, you know, to be reckoned with? Or is it?
Right, right, any of those other meanings besides the even
Steven,
got a Friday evening? Yeah, about getting back, man. You
could another way you could say, to get back, right? Yes. Yeah,
yeah. Yeah. So how are you using this where I set all the score?
Yes. So what does that mean, when you hear that it's like,
aggressive? Yes. So in the minds of people that may be caught
self conscious about race. It's like, well, we have narrative
from one narrative here. We oppressed them for 40 years. And
they won't recommend. What does that mean? It was saying, like,
that makes people nervous.
Yeah, cuz Wait a minute. Does it mean 400 years for us? Yes.
That's, that's, that's where they are. I can go or
or for 400 years. I can handle another 100 What's the problem?
Right?
doubtful, but yeah, yeah, it's Yeah, it's aggressive and scary
that way. Yes.
Yeah. So what what is that racial reckoning that just
sounds as like a blaxploitation film. You're saying, well, like
the Panthers is coming back to, you know, saying to get white,
do whatever, like so why use that term, but, and then, like I
said, the article said, don't use that term. So I just found
that she was out of the loop with that again. Yeah. So now we
have to go to the other side of the binary coin. And go over to
the Fox News. And this is Tucker Carlson. This is the blurb from
the video. Tucker Carlson tonight hosts blast, blast
critical race theory and highlights parents push back.
Good evening and welcome at Tucker Carlson. Tonight. Loudoun
County, Virginia, right outside Washington, DC was for a very
long time for generations. A reasonable place was orderly and
calm. It was well maintained. Loudoun County famously worked,
certainly in contrast to the city nearby. And then two things
happen. The Loudon County first, lots of federal money flowed in
all those government contracts in Washington made ladon County
rich in fact, bladen County is now the single richest county in
the entire United States. And that's been a problem because
any place you find easy money, you will also inevitably find
large numbers of unhappy white liberals those brutal neurotics
with the masks on screaming and everyone else to get in line.
Loudoun County has a whole bunch of those people now. It also has
a huge number of immigrants. One out of every four people in
Loudon County was born in another country. Now in general,
most immigrants are not very liberal at all, actually, in
fact, many of them have what would now be described as
extreme right wing positions on social issues. If you ever have
a chance to ask a Salvadoran what he thinks of
transgenderism, it'll make you laugh, probably nervously.
You'll look around to see if anyone heard it. But as a
practical matter, it doesn't matter at all. What immigrants
what Salvadorans or Pakistanis think of social issues or how
they organize their own families. Immigrants vote
overwhelmingly for the Democratic Party, and those
votes give more power not to them, but to those unhappy white
liberals who want to blow everything up.
So this made me realize first of all is a lot of loaded loaded
language as in the Jory clips of neurotics and there's a lot of
hyperbole is just as heavy on that side
but I want to show it just in your tracks and pulls away from
both into these two camps but what also he said we made me
realize is this is not for the target is the audience is not
quote unquote black black American people. This is
training the kids of the new immigrants Yes. Because as he
said, they come from very I mean, if you talk about just
take the groups it's just coming into the country now in mass
Central America and and Mexico they have very strong
patriarchal system right. Um, you look at the Haitians Thanks.
Thanks. Similar thing. You look at the Afghan a similar thing.
So these are a lot of people is coming into the country,
especially in Loudoun County or counties like Loudoun County,
which is right up the road from me so I'm ground zero on this
kind of thing. You got to get in those kids hands early. You have
bitten I think that's reason why you hear the term dark people
because you can't use po anymore right? You can't use black
anymore. Black and Brown Brown
Brown Brown so you really think they're gonna gonna go with this
with the dark stuff
when they rolled out different terms like I said the PLC is
dead they tried that. Some kind of crazy acronym but it knows
don't work. Like say Black has its own connotation to it. Brown
is more Hispanic. So do your middle eastern or Indian kids
don't fall under that so always you know why? And then what's
the opposite of white so it's like you can't do black so let's
go with dark
This is it so this this is probably not news to you. But
this clearly shows that the Democratic Party has given up on
black America just given up they don't care
well no know what they are. There's now this is another term
I came up with their cicada cracks. Okay, they go dormant
for a long period of time. Time for us to vote and they big they
weigh out the dirt and they come over to us like it's time to
vote now black Pope's but in the meantime, they had to actually
engage with these other groups and set up because if you let
kids come here and see that their parents way, got them
conservative ways gotten them to the point they're at without any
pushback, or you lose, you lose them. Yeah. So now it's like
they had to go full court press on. One given them superiority
over the white kids. Um, that's I think that's the whole point
of this critical race theory in the in the, in the academic way.
Because they have to train these newly integrated people yeah,
into becoming liberal
into submission and train them into voting for us.
Yes, well, we'll make them counter their parents. I mean,
it's just like any, any teenager, right? You make them
probably easy. You make them counter their parents and with
any teenager is you become you liberal when you're younger, and
then you go more conservative. So now they have to get those
kids on ramp as early as possible. And that's why I think
you're seeing the CRT or whatever you want to call it
being pushed on these groups at a very early age, what would
you want to call it? The stuff?
Well, we'll call it is what it call it, what it is, is mind
control. It's a it's my control and manipulation. To me, let me
just be clear on where I'm at with this whole thing. I'm past
the point of history being taught in schools. Now, I know
that might be a hot take. But what I'm saying is the whole
point of history is if you're not going to make everybody
happy with history, so what I would rather see taught is law.
kids know their rights. kids know what voting means civics
power, the political system works. Yeah, that way they can
actually, you know, it's not a bunch of narrative because
whoever has the political reigns will define the narrative,
right? Yeah, um, you'll go from, um, but he's why these textbooks
change every four years, like who's in power, let's go. Super,
you know, well, slavery wasn't that bad. We're gonna write it
off as kind of a form of just indentured servitude, which
that's not true. And then on the other hand, you know, we're just
as bad off as you heard her saying, like now we're in a
similar case that we were 400 years ago. It's like No that's
not it either. So my just my personal opinion, um is I think
history should be learned in your churches or synagogues,
your family or the centers family family history that way
you get a proper perspective but if you want to have kids
actually be good citizens and productive citizens teach them
law teach them teach them why and then you can get history in
there so if you teach him this for Case in point by law
law is almost by definition history it's all case law. So
you're always going back in history to see how things were
done in the past with law
correctness that's when I was gonna meet with her like the
Brown versus Board of Education Okay, you got these rights,
how'd you get them understanding then you go through the case and
then kids understand like, oh, okay, that's how the judicial
system works.
But the problem here is is much deeper it's not about what
parents want their kids to be taught it's impossible in this
in this situation where you have to blow up the whole system you
I mean, every day, I'm receiving at least one email from parents
who are homeschooling or has looked towards you know,
alternative solutions that therefore disclosure
I'm homeschooling now right on and not in case in point. We
have a family law book. So I'm not just something I'm just
speaking. Oh,
can I be a guest lecturer at the mo facts school? Texas,
part of the podcast I like to
teach him a little bit of Linux or something I'll give him a
little like him a little some extra in life. I'll teach him
how to code
and this is how we're gonna have to do his community schooling
and that's
the way to go that's I completely think that's the way
to get to get the federal government out of every one
school well that
will never let that happen on in mass because that's
their that's their their control mechanism of course.
Well that's their that's their base their their funding. Yeah.
The teachers like you always speak about the teacher lobby. I
mean, when I say lobby, but that's the appropriate slip but
the teacher union Yeah. is one of the most powerful unions that
it is got a lot of juice. Yeah. So you're not just going to let
kids just getting the kids to be able to homeschool they had to,
you had to prove your education level. Like how don't wait like,
but this goes back to your kids aren't yours? And we need to
really understand.
Yeah, that's, that's a scary one. That's a scary one. Because
what they're trying to play into is what we're talking about your
your homeschooling is your your community is important to their
education as well. community around them, but you know, the
way they make it sounds like whoa, whoa, we really got to
take care of this for you. Which is taking a justice step too
far.
Yeah, and we have to understand that our kids aren't ours. I
mean, I don't want to go into that but when you sign that
birth certificate, a lot of power over it's like, okay,
there are kids, but you have custody of them. That's a scary
I mean, like that's there. I mean, it didn't really dawn on
me. Of course, I already knew this but it really just was
really really dawned on me if that's a word what would the
birth certificate expand? Now when you sign your right and
when you sign that birth certificate, basically your
children are Ward's of the state, they give you custody
and not everyone knows this
that's why they can come and take custody at any time a
truancy officers social services, all of these things.
And like I said, these are things that we could really
address if these lawyers want to address race and issues. I mean,
there's issues that you couldn't address but even I mean, I was
getting call from truant officers because they were slow
to update the system. Okay, so when you're gonna bring your kid
to school we had to have somebody to come out there it's
like what hold on so you can't even not see your kids at
school.
Wow
Yeah, we got to like I said we misses the point I'm saying
about learning your rights and learning what you what you sign
away when you sign certain documents not that we all have
to have I mean, I'm not one of those people where you know, the
sovereign people kind of thing because to operate in this
system, you had to have a social security number you had to have
a birth certificate. I mean, like um, to even get jobs right
you had to prove that you were for our citizens you had to
prove that you were born here yeah. Oh yeah, it's Wow. Like
how little rights we do have or um, close we are to them
actually. There's a huge are keys there's a
huge theory about the law. of the sea and the corporate
maritime law maritime law yes and the and the and the
corporate law and now whenever I bring this up I know agenda
Dvorak scoffs at me and even you know even goes as deep as well
when everything is an all uppercase then that's that's the
legal like the the ownership that's where they own you are
you
more Adam not because that's something that the more or not
the more these the sovereign rights people with the Moore's
while you're
talking basically with Wesley Snipes, you know, the same thing
he's like, yo, so sovereign citizen, you know, I don't know.
taxation is theft. Yeah, travel, he learned the hard way.
That didn't work out very well. Like I said, in theory, and this
theory meets reality in theory, yet on it sounds good. But I'm
not trying to figure it out from this out of a jail sale. I'm not
trying to argue my case. So
you gotta, you gotta be pragmatic when you're
homeschooling for kids. I mean, you can't be sitting in jail,
it's just not gonna work.
It kind of makes it hard to homeschool. Doesn't have good Wi
Fi. So let's get number two.
And that's why Mystery solved. A lot of places with high levels
of recent immigrants tend to be far more liberal than those
immigrants themselves. It's interesting, and that's
definitely true in Loudoun County, Virginia. Take a look at
the schools if you don't believe it. Well, Adam county used to
have famously good schools, people wanted to send their kids
to those schools. Now those schools are run by lunatics who
hate the country. It happened fast, it always does. Here's
video from a County School Board Meeting just two days ago. The
first person you're going to see in this video is a middle school
teacher called Andrea Weisskopf. Now, as you watch this, keep in
mind that Andrea Weisskopf is actually a middle school
teacher. She's not a paid actor. We didn't make her up to prove a
point. She is entirely real down to the ostentatiously displayed
pronouns. In her Twitter bio. Here's Miss Weisskopf explaining
how the book To Kill a Mockingbird. A book the rest of
us assumed was all about why racism is bad, is in fact itself
racist because it causes something called racial trauma
due to the fact there are white people in it.
They are so afraid of their children seen another view of
sexuality, gender, or religion. If you want to talk about books
that are assigned, let's read To Kill a Mockingbird together. If
you weren't willing to consider the racial trauma this assigned
book causes black children with its white saver. savior ism.
Then you have no business discussing any books.
Oh, I have a unique opportunity. I happen to know a black child
he's a little older now. Mo Have you ever read To Kill a
Mockingbird?
Yes I did already in I think it was eighth or ninth grade I
believe
good because as a white person I have no idea about this trauma
that must have caused you
I thought it was a just didn't sit with me one way or the
other. I mean, the black guy kind of got railroaded in it but
the point is, is that white savior ism that's the that's the
that's the key.
I know. I know. I was waiting for you to say that as a child
you were traumatized by the white savior trying to come into
the story.
What Ain't it amazing nasty dramatic but all the stuff they
show on Netflix and
that's trauma that's trauma
Queen inflamm and all these Central Park five all this
trauma based entertainment although that's not trauma No,
but if I read a book with it you're saying it is based in I
think like was like 30s I believe I'm gonna say 40s if I'm
not mistaken um yes. That you know just tell what happened in
a legal case where I did dude dig it railroad but it's the
fact that that white guy that's the whole point is the white
savior ism that's what they're trying to rebrand because but it
was a lie ship is is being mocked. I just was like, we got
to go one step further.
Just want to make sure that I get it. Maybe it's not a fair
question, because it was so long ago. But you said I said well,
what did you I asked him in a stupid way. But so what did you
think of To Kill a Mockingbird? Were you impressed when you said
he was neither here nor there? He said the black guy got
railroaded. I mean, that was your takeaway. Yeah. No, that's
important because for white people, this is very important
book. Because there is some I do understand where the white
savior ism comes from. But that's not what it is but I
think that as a white man I of course I've read this book but
not in school because I came through the Dutch school system
so that was not that was not on the curriculum so I read it
later in life and the feeling I got is oh so good you know it
can it can work wasn't like really savior ism I didn't feel
that any of that but quite honestly I had the same it's
like why is this doesn't seem like they would have to be big,
literally indifferent actually.
Yeah and I will say this on the other side of you do get these
racially charged books you get sounder you get, ya know, those
kind of books is but like say it's the adults are putting way
more energy and then the kids right? Right? And it's just like
it's another book you have to read. And like say it's a
fictitious book so while we get so bent out of shape over
like a reality story,
right, you know, I mean, other things that we could be reading
you know, or not reading but the problem is, you talk about race
and the white saviors and but her sentence starts off with
sexuality and
she didn't even didn't even mention race at that point.
Know that that's that that's the point. It's like, you don't
really care you're just saying, you just want that door to halt
you just want us to hold the door so you can bring so much
other stuff in and it's like you think I'm that dumb? are black
parents are that dumb or even it's a dark parents if you I
don't know what the comic because like you said, You can't
say black and brown you say can't say people of color.
No. I'm gonna say dark. No, no, I'm just keeping a dark from now
on. I'm just gonna keep using it. See how that works out for
me?
Yeah, you let me know. Okay. We is. I don't understand. I don't
know what, what the argument was that I get with the arguments
about but I don't understand from one side of it. The Eve
they think the people they're trying to help are
well, let's go back to let's go back to our mass formation.
These people are under spell. So they are probably at this point
in this state not capable of of thinking that you're smart,
dumb, or one way or the other. They're just, they're just doing
what they're what they've been programmed to do.
So do I have natural immunity?
You have natural immunity from a lot of things.
Not that not me personally, but one of the people they're trying
to target audiences is black people, right? They want to get
us route up. So we make a big push for and then hold the door
open and they flood all these other propagandistic news and
information in that's that's the goal.
Right? That's interesting because this is targeted at dark
people. But it's the white people that get riled up over
it.
But they need us to buy into it. It's the same thing with the
vaccine. The fact that we won't buy into it is a real problem
for the people that's pushing it because if we if we and I say
this very loosely as a group, but it's all in mass black
people like we want the vaccine we want the vaccine it will be
Snopes and it will be no like you will just know random
bulldoze by the insane by what will be allowed and we will all
be mandated by now. But the fact that we're reluctant because you
know we have the prior knowledge and what I call the natural
immunity to race it's like no I see where you're going with this
and you realize that right I know your information, but my
natural immunity protects me from the BS and it's like no,
I'm not gonna I'm not willing to go that route so I think that's
why they can't understand it like why the calculations and
they're like we're saying all the magic words why is it not
working?
Right? And props mad props to Kyrie Yeah. Good on him man.
In and day since since you brought it up I mean, cuz I
reason why I gotta go here because it reached your radar,
which you're not you're a non sports fan. Um
it's working.
The lady that ousted they asked it, Rachel Nichols for my Kayla.
He had the ESPN reporter who also got sideline Yes. No, no,
no, not not safe. Not safe steal. Oh, no, no. Okay. The one
that replaced Rachel Nichols with she is um, you Is this
outside of my paygrade? Or she can't know she came out after
carry to say my least like they couldn't I think Monica Andrews
that's it Malika yes she's the one replaced Rachel Rachel
Nichols and now she's earning her keep by going at the carry
and in a way kind of going at the rate Oh sh do wishes and
once the ESP was making them mandating them So what I'm
saying is you're seeing when you get that spot it comes it comes
with a price Oh yeah. And she's having to pay up strong I got to
give him his props he's over strong she's a
one dropper Yeah, she's very nice hand
she's half Jewish. And she's half black she's a Drake of ESPN
got it that and that was what they use the real black woman
and I say real black I mean by rational man. Let me cuz I want
to say this biracial is its own thing, which, of course, good
nor bad and embrace it. But they for optics. Yeah, they had to
use a quote unquote, let me say I can properly quote unquote, a
real black woman as the victim. Oh, Rachel Nichols. They
couldn't use her. They had to use another lady that says she
was a basically a token hire.
You know, it's it's so disgusting how they do this.
Again, back to Sharon Osborne, you know, so that whole thing
came down that she goes on Entertainment Tonight, and it's
a race story. Who interviews are the black guy? Of course, it's
so obvious, you know, and it's by itself that I don't know what
the guy's name is. He should be thinking this sucks. Don't make
me do this story all the time. To ruin das
Wow. Cast in record, right. Rachel Nichols was in the same
spot. Yep. As Melissa Andrews was her criticizing carry would
be the wrong optics. So these things are Got it? Yeah, they're
pre planned. It's like Okay, we got an NBA season coming up. We
might have some rubber rousers. So you're saying some people
that we don't want to go along with the program and the NFL
mean NBA being 85% black or more it's likely it's gonna be a
black person so we need somebody it's black there are appears
black criticizes black players. So lo and behold, here you are.
And I know that sounds far fetched, but no,
not at all. No, I come from that world. No, I come from media.
That's exactly how they think you're spot on.
But we know it's like I said, like when we see the it's the
natural, let's say the natural immunity to the bullshit because
you see the black reporter sitting now with the case, the
one we talked about last time with officer bird from the
capital. They had to sit black reporters down with him. I was
like, Okay, oh, now we see what this is.
Put out, I'll go back to my, my standard, what I think is
happening, they are still the Boulay the intellectual elite,
the liberal intellectual elite. Democrats power all politicians.
They still are using the old fashioned messaging system. And
they haven't really caught up or figured out how to reach people
with with their message. They still are doing it the old
fashioned way, you know, do 60 Minutes interview with The New
York Times, you know, maybe do an extra hit with anderson
cooper just for the looks because the ratings aren't
there. And it's not working. It's fundamentally not working.
Hollywood can't influence anyone anymore. No one cares. They're
tuning out they're sick of commercials. So people aren't
getting the messages the way they used to the only way
ironically, his clips being played on podcasts. And, or
mainly, I would say YouTube clips on YouTube clips on
Twitter clips on Insta. And I said insar. That's how it's
still being propagated. very inefficient, very inefficient,
and they're still pushing it this way. And they they're going
to come to the realization it's going to stop working. It will
eventually I think it already is it's just going to break look at
it. It's not it's not working on you. It's not working on, on on
black Americans with mandates. It's not working.
It's something that you pointed out that just dawned on me but
you're saying it's not working but I think it is because what
they're doing now is they're following the non traditional
media format, over action to action. This is how it goes on.
on the YouTube side and these kinds of things, I react to a
video and then somebody reacts to my video and then somebody
reacts to that video and then I get back to me and then I react
to that video that's what they're doing this they're doing
that but then reaction video model it's good point yeah so
this this is them trying to mimic answer some what's right
so we you see tuck across the say something then enjoy rains
gonna lay that out she reacts to that and then no gives more
Tucker Carlson more content to react to her reaction and then
hopefully somebody from the outside of the sphere react to
it. So
what that does it from your own YouTube experience it it hypes
up the people watching your stuff, and they'll be into it
and then you know the in the same for everyone else who's
answering your video, but I think it still remains very
limited. It's not a mass scale operation because it's only
going to be people who are really maybe that's not
you got to have
that you nailed it. You'll never get it right they have no joy
read indeed it has no talent.
I mean, she might get one line of like common tuck cross and
tuck homes. Like that's funny you were saying but it's like
the other things is it's not they're not talented. This I
mean this this is why 45 savage beat him though something
because he's a natural, talented jokester and I mean like when it
comes to like cracking or snapping or whatever he's got
he's got game he's got stick right that's why he was so
successful at it but then the other side tried to do it. It
was like Yeah, like and it sounds lame. So if you don't
have talent, you just don't have talent and that's what's really
being exposed and they don't have very many talented people
in the on the on the mainstage do not because like when you
look at Don Lemon he's like oh, he'll say sounds like man that
was lame.
But he's entertaining to watch
the Korean Korean like a Korean the Koreans kind of way you
react to it? Yes. It's beautiful because we've won we've won we
broke them to arm model Oh, sir. Around commercials which is the
problem
Yeah, True. True.
Alright, so so now we have across insane clip. He had a
teacher speaking now he's gonna have parents speaking out
against reacting basically, to the teachers. Oh,
so if you don't consider To Kill a Mockingbird racist, says
Andrea Weisskopf, then, quote, you have no business discussing
any books. Can you even imagine what this lady's personal life
must be like? miserable does not even begin to describe a
desperate hellish. But if she somehow looks familiar, there's
a reason for that. You've heard a lot of lectures like this
recently from people like Andrea Weisskopf, stupid people telling
you what you're allowed to say and read. That's essentially
2021 summed up in a single sentence. The scariest part is
they're telling your kids the exact same thing all day, every
day in school. So what effect is that having on your kids on all
of our kids on the country itself? Will over time the
effect is unimaginable. For the last year most parents have put
up with this, either they didn't know what was happening or they
felt powerless to stop it from happening. They were afraid to
object to speak up as lunatics like Andrea Weisskopf hurt their
children. But that's changing. Finally, some parents have had
enough of this. Watch this mother at this week's Loudoun
County School Board meeting.
CRT is not an honest dialogue is a tactic that was used by Hitler
in the Klu Klux Klan on slavery very many years ago to dumb down
my ancestors, so we could not think for ourselves. CRT is
racist, it is abusive, it discriminates against one's
color. Let me educate you an honest dialogue does not impress
the press. Anonymous dialogue does not permit hatred or
injustice is to communicate with deceiving without deceiving
people. Today, we don't need your agreement. We want action
in the backbone for what we asked for today to ban CRT, I
had to come down here today to tell you to your face that we
are coming together and we are strong. This will not be the
last greets and means respectfully.
Whoo. And as you can hear, maybe infer from what she said our
ancestors, this is a black lady. This is this is something that
they couldn't
do. It makes them crazy. The brain
freezes. It's like what do we do with this because if you go
against her, then it kind of just ruins your whole narrative,
but they don't understand that nobody wants to be a victim.
anymore. Like that's so that's
so pre Rona.
Even before then, I mean, that's the whole thing is just that,
but the problem is with social media, people finally have a
voice to say no, if you before I mean only what if you want to
only hear what msnbc has to say? And you were like, well, is that
what black people are saying? Well, I guess Oh, that's what
the black anchors are saying, or that's what the black lady from
Harvard is saying, you know, that kind of thing. So you have
people like this woman here coming forward and saying, No,
we don't we don't want to be victims. And we realize that
this is the same thing that went on throughout history. Like I
said, it's just, we live in an information age. And you can
draw the parallels very easily to things that happen in the
past.
Once you hit Yes, certainly, when it comes to communication,
absolutely.
Well, I see your one black lady at a, at a PTA meeting, raise
you have a survivor of Mao's China, who
I've been very alarmed about what's going on in our school,
you are now teaching, training our children to be social
justice warriors, and to lose our country and our history.
Growing up in Mao's China, or this thing very familiar, the
communist regime use the same critical theory to divide
people. The only difference is the use class instead of race.
during the Cultural Revolution, our witness, students and
teachers can turn against each other. We change school names to
be politically correct. We were taught to denounce our heritage,
the red cards, destroy anything that is not communist, statues,
books and anything else. We also encourage you to report on each
other just like the student equity ambassador program, and
the bias reporting system. This is indeed the American version
of the Chinese Communist the Chinese Cultural Revolution. The
critical race theory has its roots in Cultural Marxism. It
should have no place in our school.
How old was she? She must have been
maybe 60 or 70s. I don't want to Adrian you're saying but she's
definitely she's a survivor mouse. She has to you know, be
the you know of the age. So you see the statues being pulled and
books being taken out of school like you heard in the previous
clips. It gives the imagery of Mao's China and then you have a
woman coming forward and surviving say yeah, this seems
pretty similar. He doesn't help your case.
But where did you get that from? I hadn't heard of I hadn't heard
this woman.
I got it off. What are the DC shorts on? YouTube? Yeah, good
one I had not heard I heard but it was several several women
from China. I'm noticing now in good faith. I have to say some
of these people are just seeking attention my a lot of these
parents go there. And somebody I'll go viral. And it's like,
all I can talk that you know, and then they just start
yelling, cussing me and that kind of thing is not all good
actors on both sides. Um, so I just want to point that out as
well. Yeah, I saw some clips and it's like, little kids like
scary. It's like, bro like, why are you traumatizing your keys
like that just for some airtime? Like, not like it's just cuz
they don't the kids. The adults don't ignore critical race
theory. So how can the kids and it's like, how do you? How do
they know it's scary. So that's me just being unbiased on both
sides of it. I don't like to see children using that as political
props that it's very upsetting to me. Well, unfortunately,
that happens. And sometimes it happens. Yeah. Yes, yeah.
Yeah, somebody's saying that
it's gone too far is what you're saying.
No, I don't like it because one is not effective. First of all,
and two is destructive. destructive to the key. I mean,
I thought that my point is for the kids. Yeah, Mola Mola, the
kids though it's like why are you Why are you bringing the
children into this? But you could say the same thing will
they bring the kids into it cuz they trying to teach them so I
get it from both sides. But we need to realize if we don't put
on the brakes sometime soon. We can actually end up in Mao's
China and I have some clips. Speaking on cultural revolution
and why it was so violent.
Yes, and listen for the parallels.
May 2016 marks 50 years since the start of China's Cultural
Revolution. The decade long shift resulted in an estimated 2
million deaths alongside widespread abuse, displacement,
public humiliation and torture. At the time, little was
understood about the causes and devastating outcomes of the
revolution. However, newly released archives have shed
light on this dark period of China's modern history of so now
half a century later. What do we know about China's Cultural
Revolution while the revolution was predominantly Chairman
Moussa dongs attempt to establish himself as the leader
of the Communist world by reading the country of
capitalism and its long standing traditions. After Mao's
Communist Party to power in 1949, the Soviet Union's new
leader Nikita Khrushchev denounced his predecessor Joseph
Stalin, and began to D Stalin eyes the USSR seeing
similarities between himself and Stalin. Mao began to fear a
similar fate for himself. So in 1958, Mao launched a national
campaign to boost China's economy called the Great Leap
Forward, which radically redistributed land among China's
rural population and organized workers into communes. The Great
Leap Forward failed miserably decimating the economy and
diminishing Mao's role within the ruling party. To regain
control mal united with like minded radicals, including his
wife and defense minister Lin Biao to launch the Cultural
Revolution.
Yeah,
so it was done to retain power at the end of the day that's
what it was all about gaining power. But you heard like
parents kids turning on parents and
turning a man even turning him like like we're seeing now with
climate change.
Yeah. And mask and we saw with the with the Roma, right if you
see somebody outside call
Yeah. Yeah, but I mean, kids kids calling on their parents,
you know, that's, that's harsh.
Well, that's what we've been through this before. Because I
was in school at this time. Is your parents abusive? This is
one of the big cultural changes that I went through as a child
was, can you spank your kids or not? Yo, yeah. Right? That was
the big argument. Can you spank your kids not? And it was like a
if you if your parents do anything, here's a number. And
you can call them you know, all your parents. And that really
powerful structure between the child and the parent. Of course,
my mom, Mama facts, she said, You bet if you call them you bet
how they get here by time I kill you.
Okay, my mom. My mom had the hairbrush. And her threat was
Adam Curry. And now she would do Adam Clarke Curry is going to be
bristle side down. Huh, it was was was, was really stiff
brushes, you know, like, with the metal prongs.
But that was the threat. Like I said, we've been here before
kids calling, calling the authorities on their parents. So
this is just another iteration of that. But now it's often not
actions, but thoughts.
And now the kids actually have a cell phone. Yeah. And speed
dial.
Right? It's always like, oh, but it's, I just find it like it's
scary in one sense, because I know how fragile these things
are, and how fast they can spin out of control. And I don't
think the people in play don't take that very seriously are
serious enough what they're playing with. So I guess we can,
we can get to the second clip of the Cultural Revolution.
Conference in May of 1966. Mao claimed that bourgeois ideas had
crept into society and the government, and that these
elements could only be removed the violent class struggle. In
the months that followed, Mao shut down China's schools and
mobilized students into paramilitary units called Red
Guards. The groups attacked and killed teachers, intellectuals,
and eventually ordinary people they suspected of undermining
the communist system. The movement infiltrated the
military workers and even the ruling party itself by the late
1960s 10s of 1000s had been forced out of cities in an
effort to purify urban areas, and millions had suffered Rape,
Abuse, arbitrary imprisonment or torture. Some of the most
horrific violence occurred in rural villages in southern
China, where revolutionaries were known to practice
ritualistic cannibalism in the name of revolution.
Wow.
As far as opposition. So this happened, I think people don't
really appreciate how fragile civility is and always talk
about that proverbial glass and are we prepared? what's on the
other side of that glass breaking, you know of that
metaphorical glass? Breaking because the these families
killed it. It's very, it's very alarming. And that's why I've
tried to push the empathetic listening and understanding
because you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube on
these kinds of things. The
thing that's probably closest right now to what was happening
then is the sunrise movement. And if you followed them, so
it's predominantly young, young, young people, young children, or
children young. And they're very, they're very radical when
it comes to climate change. And they're just kids in my mind,
but they're the leadership of sunrise very, very radical.
Again, it's this, you know, people from the 60s with, with
true Marxist training from back in the day, and they're leading
them. So this definitely, definitely needs to be be looked
at scrutinized carefully, what's taking place.
We have to because as we hear with the military, they're being
pushed with the critical race theory people on their jobs are
being pushed with it. It's this constant, unsettling, as, as the
guy said before, object of anxiety. Yeah, it's the constant
the pushing of the object of anxiety. And then you have that
and then you have the DOJ directing the FBI to crack now.
Every day in this country, the government under Joe Biden or
whoever is running the joint infringes more and more upon our
freedoms, pushing Americans closer and closer to the edge,
the latest, the Attorney General of the United States instructing
the Department of Justice and the FBI to address threats
against school boards and teachers over COVID-19
restrictions, masks and critical race theory saying those threats
should be discouraged and prosecuted. The memo reads that,
quote, constitutional protections don't extend to
efforts to intimidate individuals based on their
views. Wait, what? upriver, the Constitution protects actions
and speech where individuals seek redress of their
grievances. Now however, the ag seeks to remove that
constitutional right, if you're a parent concerned about how
your children are being taught, the Doa j actually threatening
parents concerned about their children. But it's okay to
follow a US Senator into a bathroom and threatened to take
her out of office. It's okay for Black Lives Matter rioters to
intimidate and literally burn down our neighborhoods and
businesses. But Mama, don't even think about objecting to the
ideological racial hatred being hoisted upon your own children.
This is viewpoint discrimination, which is
particularly disfavored by the courts because it restricts
speech on a given subject matter
Yeah, it's you know, this whole DOJ going after the parents I
think that was more posturing than anything I'm not I'm not so
sure how it
is you know as and when they put stuff on the books just like
when you had the thing say Oh, where any terrorist anywhere we
can go after him. That's true. It's on the books on the boat
now and the only reason why they didn't they couldn't call people
domestic terrorists up until this point because you had to
have some official tie to a foreign terrorist group that's
the only reason they can't hit you with like domestic terrorism
charges now. I did that I found that out my studies and wormhole
On the January 6 thing that's the
starting that's where it started that's where they started
calling DVDs domestic violent extremists right so not not the
same as a terrorist
course not because a terrorist has to have ties to a foreign
terrorist operation but
yes, yeah,
I mean No, no, what I'm saying is by law by law that's if
you're gonna get charged, you had to have
remember during during Obama there was some change and became
enemy combatant and there, there are some, there's like some
wishy washy stuff they can just basically thing just pick you up
in black bag and throw you and get mo anytime they want.
Pretty much they have pretty much
it.
But that's my point. But it's on the books now that if you go to
the wrong PTA meeting and say the wrong thing, we heard the
story last Time of the guy that went to the Capitol didn't go
in. And that guy overheard him talking, his neighbor overheard
him talking about it, and called the Fed zone, right? So I mean,
let's not think this is far fetched, and this is where my
problem comes in it is because now no one can be critical of
the education their kids are getting, which infringes upon my
rights, because if I want to go and say I say my piece at a PTA
meeting or a school board meeting, I should have that
right. I'm not sure have that I had that right. Not should I
have that right. And it shouldn't be afforded to me by
the First Amendment, and it shouldn't be a fringe known. So
this is where the rubber meets the road at for people like me,
is that y'all can do whatever y'all want to do. But you start
saying, I can't voice my opinion on an anti v entity that
controls like, 1/3 of my kids day. And I have a problem with
that.
I have correspond with that. Have you been to a school
meaning school board meeting?
I have not. I live in a county that the school superintendent
is a I want to say not say Aunty, but he's not in favor
mask. If you want your kids not to wear a mask, that's possible.
They were one of the earliest schools that went back. So it's
really like a it's kind of like a red stronghold in Northern
Virginia. I mean, you see the demographics kind of changing,
but I'm ground zero here in Northern Virginia. The county I
live in, it leans more red, and scoot in the school
superintendent. He's not anti mass, but he's, you can get
waivers. So your kids are having to wear masks to school, and,
you know, was one of the first early schools in this area to go
back to full day last year. So I'm gonna say it's just, it's
just weird. And I was gonna go to the school board meetings and
make a first but then I was like, you know, what, just sever
ties with the entity? And then do it and do them kind of
satisfy my dad.
Just gonna say and then just do an episode of MO facts.
I could, yeah, I could definitely do that. Um, it's
sad, because my dad, he's always been an educator, but
professionally, he was educator. And I never thought it would get
like this. But I saw the kind of handwriting on the wall when,
towards the end of his career as a teacher. It was just changing
so fast. So it can I say it's kind of sad. I mean, well, it's
sad. But it's also an opportunity more I think it's an
opportunity for the the people and the communities themselves
to retool, recreate their own their new schooling system.
I mean, I will say this, I mean, I do. I am a owner of certain
privileges that I've worked from home. You know, so that does
help. All parents don't have that option. So that's one of
the difficult things. I say. I think school could be
reimagined. I think that it could definitely be changes to
be made where you don't have to, I mean, it doesn't have to be
binary, like no public schools anymore.
No, but I think I think it has to be reimagined. Well, it has
to be
it has no, I totally agree with you on that. It has to be
reimagined, but it can't fix
this. What's happened here is is no longer fixable. It just has
to be redone. I really, I really believe that I really think that
there's so much middle management administration and
it's poison, it's just poison, but I don't think you can cut
the poison out.
If the union's I mentioned that. Yeah, let's just keep it I mean,
right. Well, the problem is that it's the unions and I know we
have teachers out there but the unions even get in the teachers
way. This is one of the problems is that teachers are underpaid.
The quality of teachers lateral entry I mean, there's
no I know a lot of teachers and yes, there are technology
issues. they complete the whole lockdown was a mess, was a mess.
But why did it have to be that's why I don't understand of the
zoom. Why is it so hard to teach? We have Khan Academy, we
have all these things. Why's it that is so hard to get students
in front of teachers. I know I don't understand what the
problem. I know what the problem is because they have these
contract deals with these. These providers and these people that
come systems that that's
part of it, that that's part of the problem. The very, it's not
that easy to teach via zoom, certainly if you've never been
doing it. And I and I, my only, I have an example of this where,
several years ago, I did a speech at a college in New
Jersey, in a media class. And I was invited back to do that
again, during the during the Rona. So the first time I was at
the school, and all the students were in the auditorium. The
second time, I was on zoom, and I had 26 windows. And in soccer
balls, you cannot make contact you cannot get and some of them
were actually interested. So it's not just a bunch of kids
who are forced to sit there, you cannot get the human contact
that is critical for communicating ideas. It's not
there. And I'm sure that you know, distance learning and of
course, lots of people do colleges, etc. But for young for
young students, I think it's it's almost impossible for
teachers to convey anything. Certainly if you're talking
classrooms of 2030 strong,
I'll push back against that, okay, because the kids have no
problem connecting when they're gaming.
Oh, listen to what I'm saying. The teachers, the teachers don't
know how to do it. The teachers don't know how the kids
understand. The teachers do not know how to teach in this
manner.
No, I agree this, what I'm saying is that, but why are we
not trying to fix the problem is because the teachers don't want
to be phased out? Or this I mean, it's the same conversation
we're having with the media, right? media doesn't fit the
system to get good points. Yeah, it's the same thing. Do we
restrict the kids because the kids have no problem with
connecting? Well, I
actually liked your idea there. I mean, I liked the gaming idea,
I think if kids could go in and could do like a grand theft
auto, except, you know, it's their teacher, their shooting,
engage that will be very engaging, right?
Like you have a little like, and what I'm saying is, I don't
accept that it can't be done. Because that's not how we think,
right? I mean, you're podcasting. So I mean,
it can be done, I'm just saying, I don't know if it makes sense
to try and fix these people.
First of all, the quality is the quality of teachers. I mean,
just keep it 1000. You can walk in with a four year degree and
lateral entry, and walk into a classroom in a very short period
of time. Of course, I don't want to generalize because it's
different from state to state. But with lateral entry, you
don't have to have a four year teaching degree with the you
know, saying with this kind of work, being a nurse, it's like,
they're saying, okay, you have a four year degree you can come be
a nurse, and they will teach you how to be a nurse on the fly.
Right? What I really that's that's that's what we're doing
with it. I'm most prized possession, not children.
Unfortunately, yes. So that's
where it's broken, man. But you want to keep the wages down
because the unions need to make their cut. So they can be at
airports.
As I said, I think homeschooling is the way to go. I think you're
doing a good thing there.
I think hybrid is the way to go. I'll just say that there's some
kind there's some kind of Win Win there. But with that said,
we got to go Thanks for more people that allow us to do what
we do. I like brand new money. I just I don't want any money
around me. It's not I'd almost rather have a new one than a
brand and then an old 20 that's kind of dumb and but there's
some bad new money that excites you like $100 bills. I owe money
to the most beautiful thing on earth is $100. Bill, I haven't
seen a woman is good looking at $100.
Bill are indeed going to thank the remaining producers for
Episode Number 68 of mo facts with Adam Curry. And a reminder
that you can also use a very cool new podcast app, not one,

We gave people a double dose the healing vaccine, wherever you
want to call it. Yes. So I thought maybe we should call it
the COVID-19 vaccine. I'm from Mr. Stephen Covey of Seven
Habits of Highly Effective People. This is something I want
to start doing because it was so well received empathetic
listening, I think we can make this not every show, but just
make sure we give people a booster every now and again on
their COVID-19 a vaccine. So this one is synergy. It should
help.
Habit six synergize in a sense, is the fruit of the spirit of
Win Win habit for the spirit of seeking first to understand then
to be understood. Habit five, then what happens is a very
powerful thing. When people begin to interact together
genuinely and they're open to each other's influence, they
begin to get new insight. Something happens to them both.
It creates the possibility of third alternatives. Not the
either or approach, not win lose, lose win, not compromise.
compromise is one plus one equals one and a half positives
synergy is one plus one equals three negative synergy one plus
one equals one half in other words so much of the effort and
energy is spent in the add the serialism
It's been a while since I've heard him
There's your booster There's your third booster shot folks
that should do it good to go now
Yeah, but in all seriousness, that's how you beat this thing
is is the empathetic listening is this energy is to seek first
to understand then to be understood because we don't want
to end up like Mao's China no and I know people like all that
their roll their eyes But yeah,
no no no, that's whoever thought would see vaccine mandates over
thought was locked down our whole country. Ah, time for that
is over.
That's why I'm so aggressive about pushing, you know, the
information of just understanding because you even
poopoo the fact that well, it's just the DOJ and you know
they're just put no just put something on the books that kind
of posturing thing, but Dick Durbin is very serious. And this
was him at the Kristin Clark's, um, a confirmation hearings. And
I just I found I heard these two clips not found on troubling. So
if people don't know this background, this is Senator Dick
Durbin, a Democrat from Illinois. He's the one that gave
us Obama basically. Back Back when Obama was running, and now
he's back at it again given us. Kristin Carr who is was then the
nominee for the leaf Civil Rights Division at the DOJ T was
confirmed but here's her, him speaking on her confirmation.
As he note on his neck, he stared into a camera. With a
walk with a look that haunts me to this day, those nine minutes
and 29 seconds tooks George Floyd's life and changed
America's national conversation about law enforcement. Those
nine minutes and 29 seconds sparked a global movement and
compelled us to bear witness to the reality of racial injustice
in our country. In this Senate, we are in a privileged position
to face that reality and to continue America's long,
sometimes bitter march toward equal justice under law. That is
why I rise today in support of Kristin Clark's nomination to be
Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division of the
Department of Justice. It's worth noting the history of this
position. The Civil Rights Division is one of the most
important components of the Justice Department. The Attorney
General's Office has existed since 1789. The Justice
Department itself was not created until after our Civil
War. During the days of reconstruction after that war,
our nation resolve to take new steps to make a more perfect
union through the 13th amendment, abolishing slavery
slavery, the 14th Amendment's guarantee of due process and
equal protection and the 15th amendments protection of all
citizens fundamental right to vote.
Always nice to see a Jamaican coming in to see to protect our
our African Americans.
Yes, so that's one thing and just for all clarity, she is
married to a white man, we all know the horrors. Now what I
mean by that is that it's amazing that these people they
get to be so
well, they're above they're above it, they have special
privileges and rights. You know, it's like they can they can do
whatever they want.
Which is you can match who you want, you can love who you want.
My issue is that perspective. If you're dedicate your life to
race and those kinds of things, you think one of those things is
passing those genetics on to you know, inside the culture. But it
doesn't seem that way. And I think in in what my problem is
this. When you look at Suzanne rice, when you look at Kamala
Harris, when you look at this lady, it's a train there. What
is the trend?
Yeah, of course, I see the trend, the trend is non non
African American African Americans.
Right, that's that's my point. Like, how are you finding all
these non African American African? or What can you say non
African American African Americans, right? Why you find
all these?
Well, it doesn't matter because they're dark.
That's my point. My point is the perspective is lost. Because
even if you married a black American man, and a reason why
I'm saying this is because this was so important, important.
brock obama's
that he had that he had
a career, right, why is it not? in reverse? The same thing? Why
are we not course if Obama was merits and we're just gonna pull
the rug back for a minute, if Obama was married to a white
woman, he will lose all racial credibility? Let's just keep
this closely. But why is it not reciprocal?
Because it's not fair.
Now, I'm just saying like, I mean,
I mean, why Yeah, big obviously, because Shut up, just shut up.
They'll do whatever they want. I mean, it's, it's hypocritical.
It's, it's, it's crazy.
Right? And but if you when you point that out, like I said, If
Obama and Obama was aware of this, he knew he had to marry a
Michelle is not say, Michelle itself, but he hadn't married a
Michelle. It was he was saying it was he knew how it would be
perceived, because they're like, well, you're not really one of
us. But the fact that he was caught in that that gave him the
credit. Exactly. So I'm just wondering why it's not that's
why I raised the issue of her race of her spouse, or
interesting or her lineage because it's just not it's not.
It's not fair. I think the
lineage I think that said as a trend, I think that's
interesting observation.
It was the combination of both for me. Sure, like this was this
there. And I'm asking this from the point of why is this the
combination that the powers that be are pushing to the top Cuz we
all know that in these positions, you're kind of hand
picked to be groomed for these positions. Definitely early on
in your career. So what is going on here? So with that said,
let's get into the second clip from Durban.
The Department of Justice was created after the passage of
those amendments and entrusted with the responsibility to
defend the rights of Americans, particularly the newly
emancipated, formerly enslaved Americans. Given the
department's immediate imperative to protect and
preserve civil rights, President Ulysses S. Grant appointed Amos
Ackerman to be the first Attorney General to lead this
new department. Why he had extensive experience in
prosecuting voter intimidation as the US Attorney in the state
of Georgia. More than 150 years later, the Civil Rights Division
the Justice Department, now is entrusted with that
constitutional responsibility. The Division enforces federal
statutes prohibiting discrimination based on race,
color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability,
religion, national origin and citizenship status. And justice,
President Grant appointed a legal expert with a breadth of
experience to lead the newly formed Justice Department in
1870. Today, President Joe Biden has chosen Kristin Clark to take
up the mantle as the head of the Civil Rights Division. With her
breadth of experience defending the civil rights of all
Americans, Kristin Clark is singularly qualified to lead
this division, particularly at this moment in history. And
Madam President, Kristin Clark, will be the first senate
confirmed woman of color to do so. The first
and there it is, that's what counts. That's what is it that
who really cares if she's any good? She'll be a woman. She's
dark.
Yes, but the reason we did
I'm sorry, did he actually say African American woman just want
us to know color woman of color. Okay, so
he had that right. All right. Yes. The woman of color like I
said, when I bring this up is because Clarence Thomas was
railroaded and written down because of who he married. You
see this why is this different? It's not really a but I have to
point this out. Now I'll digress a bit but I want to go back to
another point. Amos anchorman Why did he invoke that name? Why
that name specifically I'll explain to you why. Amos
anchorman was famous for going after the KKK O his claim to
fame now we're gonna go and get into Mr. Amos anchorman he's
passed. But yeah, this was he went after the KKK now Kristin
Carr is gonna go after the KKK which you click
here which kkp Wow, okay yeah yeah,
that's that's the whole point this will be school board this
comes from her desk all of it this is what this is about is
going after first we all First of all, we have to label them as
terrorists and then we have some is gonna invoke the same spirit
as a as a criminal. Are you ready to hear about a miss
anchorman?
Yes, one moment I wanted to add. Yes, that I think yes. Our
friend Crenshaw, Kimberly Crenshaw, just because you
brought it up in my I caught it earlier. I believe that she here
is she assisted legal team presenting Anita Hill at the US
Senate confirmation hearings for Supreme Court Justice Clarence
Thomas Isn't that interesting?
And I don't find it interesting but not surprising.
No not at all. All right. Yes. Yes. I'm I'm very keen to hear
about Mr. aikman all right
36
Fuck the police products
do poor job. This is okay that value for value. This is why
value for value is so important. It was wasn't long enough to
click into a separate clip. So they're going out of one segment
on this podcast. This is was it behind the police with with
Robert Evans. I don't know if you heard him or not. I mean
Robert
Robert at the movie. Producer Robert Evans.
I don't know if that's the movie producer. I know he's a popular
podcaster in journal Oh, no, no. Okay. And rapper, rap artists
propaganda, aka Jason petty. So they're going out of one segment
and then they have to go into ads. And then they come out in
the end into they're talking
with Esther police.
So no, they went into the ads of saying these the after police
products
Oh, I gotcha. wondering like what what what, what?
I'm not getting flack for that? I mean No, I thought I'd left
that in there. So you can you can play the first 10 seconds.
Yeah, of course we can let people know what they don't have
to tolerate due to value for value.
The police products were bad. Oh my gosh. You know, what I love
is being back from ads, because it means that we can talk more
about the horrific history of racism and law enforcement
terror
and trauma that's it's in my DNA and passed on generationally.
Yes,
she had a had an air horn there. So in 1870, President Grant
began to lobby Congress to give him power to do something about
the Klan. Because again, local law enforcement was actively
aiding and abetting the KKK. In 1870 and 1871. Congress passed
the enforcement acts. These protected the rights of black
men to vote hold office and serve on juries and generally
enjoy equal protection under the law. The Ku Klux Klan acts, as
they came to be known allowed President Grant to call up the
army to order in order to arrest and break up the bands of
disguised night marauders. And we're gonna be like 99% critical
of law enforcement on this podcast, but we got to be fair
when it's important to be fair, and federal law enforcement did
a pretty decent job on breaking up the Klan. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This is, this is where things get really complicated prop
because a lot of the credit for this goes to Amos Ackerman, the
Attorney General of the United States, Ackerman joined the
republican party after the Civil War and became one of the
nation's most strenuous advocates for black suffrage. He
was like, black people have the right to vote and hold office
and we will I will make sure we enforce this with fucking
riflemen if we have to.
Okay, now, yeah, he's serious. He says hardcore. And we're so
um, you heard what the Witcher had to deal with with ads? Oh,
yeah.
Hey, man, I couldn't believe that I was talking to Megyn
Kelly. And then she she took a break to sell genu sell, which
is some beauty product. It's sad.
You have this heavy conversation is like, Oh, we got to do a
break. And now we're back so we can talk more about this
oppressive racism. And the guy's like, yeah, this deep in my
genetics that I pass along. This podcast is so cringe. Everything
we do if you did it completely wrong. I'm sorry to say it but
um, yeah, but you heard him get strong with it. Oh, yeah, he
wouldn't force it with effin rifles he if he had to right.
Mr. Ackerman has a very interesting past before he
started working for the DOJ. And here's
where things get complicated because before he was a
republican before he was the Attorney General, Amos Ackerman
volunteered and fought in the Confederate Army.
People have layers of complication. People are
complicated they contain minis Yeah, and this is for Amos This
seems to have been like what it seems to been more a matter of
like you hear about these folks who are like really loyal to
their state for reasons Yeah, I have trouble understanding like
he doesn't seem to have joined the Confederate Army
specifically to fight for slavery although he fought for
slavery because that's what the get better at army fought for.
But in his mind I think it was more like I'm really loyal to
Georgia I don't know I can't get in the head of that guy but I
guess if you can make that up he tried to afterwards
yeah you know,
I want to give it to the possibility that people probably
hundreds of them at the time you know like you said just was like
look we're down here it is what we do we fight for our way of
life I guess that's right. And in the middle of that finally
had this like, you know, yeah, this is bullshit. You're saying
and was like, but if you'd only as person for miles talking like
this, it's probably hard to find some good community and you're
probably gonna fumble and then you become this guy to where
you're like, Hey, is one thing I can do. I could probably like
dismantle this clan thing.
That's the yeah thing to do.
Yeah, this is where you see how history is. Not being taught
crap
My issue is from the left there all of you have anything to do
with Confederacy. We got to tear down your fact right away
oh yeah right away. You gotta go looking at looking through the
2021 lens you look like a real racist
right within here it's like well you know he kind of knew
something that we like for a little while so that kind of
erases everything that he did for the Confederacy. I know if
you want to have it your way man, anything that Mr. aikman
stands for even when Dick Durbin brings him up? No, no he has to
be shouted down because you know he fought to protect slavery as
these gentlemen said he fought for slavery by their by their
calculations which you see how it works about facts
no
never about facts even that's why he set it up the way he did
with a strong language in the first clip like he said with
effing rifles he was gonna do it like yeah we know it's another
shooter drop
what is the point of this behind the police? Just to say how bad
no no I mean what what is the point is it's a podcast right?
Right. What is the point of the podcast
you heard we said 99% critical equalities quite clear was about
now that's that's the point of it and maybe he has a Mr Jason
petty with him it's just like no you fought for the Confederacy
that's there's no back seats on that. I mean, that's just if
you're about the work that they're about
Yeah, yeah, their work yes. Yeah, it doesn't work.
That's the that goes to show you that there. There's this all
bullcrap. Yeah, it's all political. It's all about who we
can get to manipulate people to go cast the vote at the end of
the day. There's all this
do you think they really know that these people's these these
guys seem dumb?
We're doing a podcast on it it should be there. What I'm saying
is the emotional intelligence side of it. You know anytime you
say anything Confederate done yeah, you're done. It's a wrap.
But it's like well Wes sanitized this guy cuz we kind of got to
need him for what we need him for. The same way Dick Durbin
did why didn't dig dirt and bring that up there. He was a
former Confederate soldier. He just kind of like glossed over
the whole thing.
Well, we know why. Yeah.
Right. So that the headline is DOJ confirmation receives praise
for federal Confederate soldier, right? They will say it doesn't
matter. none of this matters to these people. They just talk out
your side of their neck. Um, but it's like they have this it's
not logical. It's not based in any Okay, well, let's weigh out
what what these people impact was? No, it's just well they did
something we like so just raise everything. We don't know
anything about this guy. We didn't know what he did for his
prior years. Right? Well, we're gonna do for
sure this podcast that these guys doing doing sucks. They
really suck because they're being disingenuous, dishonest.
Well, it continues on part three. Yeah, if
there's a thing that can make up for volunteering to serve in the
Confederate Army, I guess it's dismantling the KKK. I get it.
Yeah, like that's a good that's a good, good, good.
Paul, so now I want you to pay attention. Sorry about that. But
I want you to pay attention to their definition of dismantling.
And now he's saying they dismantled the Klan, right in
reconstruction. So that doesn't make any sense. But um, let's
listen to their definition of this man.
Yeah, if there's a thing that can make up for volunteering to
serve in the Confederate Army, I guess it's dismantling the KKK?
Yeah, like that's a good that's a good, good, good. Yeah. So the
worst clan violence was in South Carolina and grant declared
martial law in that state, citing a condition of
lawlessness, he suspended habeas corpus, and numerous Klansmen
were rounded up by federal authorities, including Sheriff
rice Rogers, who eat we have been talking about a lot, a lot
of Sheriff Scott drop pulled up in this. So the senate held
extensive hearings where hundreds of black victims of the
Klan were allowed to tell their stories to the nation, under
ackermans. direction. 600 Klansmen were convicted and 65
of them sent to a federal penitentiary by 1872. The Klan
was no longer a meaningful force in the United States. Frederick
Douglass himself said that without precedent grants actions
black Americans would have been trapped again in a condition
almost identical to slavery. That is probably true, but it's
also true that grant kind of botched the landing on this one
firing Ackerman to a piece is pathetic. rivals and commuting
the sentences of some Klansmen in the bed for reconciliation.
So again.
Oh, so 600 arrested 66 cent the federal prison. And then grant
goes and commute some of those 66 right to get right back out.
Sounds like this melon into me. Yeah, seriously?
Well, it was enough to compensate for his fighting with
the Confederate Army.
So what? 66 arrest? Yeah, I mean, you could trip and follow
CCC Klansmen?
Back in those days. Yeah, for sure.
And it seems like this dude was he was a what we talked about in
the last show. A he was flipped. Right? He's like, Hey, you want
your legacy? I will give us the clan, right? That's what it
seems like to me. And then he was just abruptly fired one year
after doing the job. And then grant goes back and commutes
their sentences does not make sense. And then they say, Oh,
well do class dismantle us get back to business as usual. So
putting ourselves back in that in those days. What was the
point of this of this of this fake move?
Oh, well. 39
grants presumed motivated motivations for suppressing the
Ku Klux Klan are dubious. Consider, for example, consider
the experience of Amos Ackerman, his second Attorney General,
Ackerman was the most vigorous of grants attorneys general in
prosecuting the Klu Klux Klan. In order to expedite
prosecutions, he expanded the powers of the then newly created
federal Justice Department. About 600 Klan members were
convicted. Yet grant abruptly asked her act Ackerman to resign
in December 1871. Partly at the prompting of Secretary of State
Hamilton fish, Grant had misgivings about ackermans,
quote, obsession, close quote, with the claim, perhaps more
importantly, Ackerman also frustrated, important more than
capitalists. He was, for example, critical of the
questionable terms under which railroads often qualify for
federal subsidies. Racism was just as prevalent in the north
as it was in the south, the only difference was that blacks
represented about 1% 1% of the population of the organic
republican states. Those states those same states would not have
granted blacks have the right to vote, if blacks accounted for
40% of their population, as it did in the south, where blacks
did account for 40% of the population and he actually spent
more money appropriated by Congress to enforce the KKK
acts. He spent most of that money not in the south, but in
the north in the big cities of the North to police the
elections where the Irish were voting
Oh wow. You know, there's a new book out about Ulysses Grant is
it Yeah, yeah, I just saw I think just named Brett bear. Fox
News Anchor wrote wrote a book about Ulysses S Grant. I
actually was thinking that's interesting. I should probably
who read that I don't know anything about him
doing that will give this would be a good motivation to read it
now. Yeah. But yeah, you saw it anchormen started stepping on
the toes a big business
that's right
that's kind of what it'd be the equivalent probably to
pharmaceuticals now and in this sway at the time um, and he had
to go in he freed know some of the Klansmen I don't understand
like how how do these facts line up for Dick Durbin listed here
celebrate wants to celebrate No, Mr. Ackerman without you know
fully. If you want to be genuine, you say here's a man
that was on the wrong side of history, but he tried to write
himself and that's the way you would posture that
right. Well, how about this? How about Dick Durbin wants to do
the same thing. He wants to round up a bunch of annoying
people and then let him go on the back end. Just to posture,
just just a posture for not not dissimilar to the January 6
trespassers, yes. And I say trespasses because that's what
most of them are being held on. For now. Nine months. 10 months.
What What goes what was found funny is here's an opportunity
for Miss Kristin Clark, if I make sure I got her name,
correct. You did. Oh, yes, clearly Kristin Clark, to be a
Amos anchorman. To hold big business accountable being the
pharmaceutical industry and say, No, you can't infringe upon
people's civil rights, for their personal beliefs, and you can't
jab them, that would
be appropriate from her certainly, as a quote, African
American,
you would think so, um, I was saying that's that's the point
I'm trying to make, or just from the fact that she said, in many
cases, protecting religious beliefs, and, you know, this is
not our first rodeo. So you're on the clock. If you started
with, you're saying with Big Pharma, and allowing these
things to happen, you're just a no, I spoke in the wheel of, you
know, oppression that used to claim to be against I mean,
that's what I'm saying he, but this is the point facts do not
matter. As your clips you gave me about a mass formation, he's
gonna point out the facts do not matter.
So what happens is that, at that moment, when people experience
this mental intoxication, it doesn't matter anymore, whether
the narrative is correct or wrong, even blatantly wrong.
What matters is that it leads up to this mental intoxication. And
that's why they continue to go along with the narrative, even
if they could know, by thinking for one second, that it is
wrong. Because for people, it doesn't matter when the
narrative is wrong, and what we all try to do, as we all try to
show constantly that the narrative is wrong. But for
people, that's not what it is all about. It's all about this,
the fact that they don't want to go back to this painful state of
free floating anxiety. Yeah,
I know, I can see by the title of your next clips that I should
just wait to tell you. What he said is the solution. Or do you
want to know now what's
outside say this, let me let me set it up. I have ironclad proof
that reptilians are behind it all. Now you can go ahead and
say what you need no screws,
I forget what I was gonna say I want to see the proof reptilians
are behind it. Let's go
41.
I want to start by talking about a problem. So for me, when I'm
approached with conflict, my immediate responses, I'm angry,
I lunge. And oftentimes, even if my response is right, in theory,
the collateral damage that I caused by standing up for
something, there's so much worse than they originally, yeah, well
experienced by everybody. And let's understand why it
happened. First, wild animals are wild animals, because they
only have a little tiny brain. And that little tiny brain keeps
them alive, is about fear and revenge and reproduction, and
anger. And let's go. And human beings have that same brain. But
we evolved to have this other brain in front, the one that
does ballet, the one that does big ideas. But that brain is
slow. Compared to our wild animal brain, our Lizard Lizard
brain is right next to our spinal cord, and it can go back
and it floods your brain with chemicals instantly. And this
brain takes three more seconds to catch up. By the time that
happens to really difficult for that brain to say calm down.
Here's the right answer. You just have to walk on an airplane
when they're experiencing turbulence. What we know is
planes don't crash because it turbulence, but people freak
because the lizard brain takes over we're gonna die.
But out of sort of the lizard brain has come this idea of the
resistance How does that work?
So Steve pressfield coined the term and what it means is that
there's part of us that doesn't want to be seen so that's what
writer's block comes from. No one actually has writer's block
just like no one gets plumbers block. You just do plumbing you
can't write it is the act of writing means you'll be seen
forever by strangers. Your
nose, literally behind it.
They want us to be like them. Thinking with that little
reptilian brains Yes, they do. Yes they do. Yes they do. They
do. And this down on me I know it sounds far fetched. No, but
no,
but if there's one thing we connect on Moby lizard people,
we connect deeply on lizard people.
What if not the fact that they have scaly skin and little beady
eyes and long lizard tongue, it's their brain. They can't
think past destroy or, you know,
make make babies eat or destroys.
Yes, that's an all they're able to think on the level of and
they want to bring us down to that level of thinking, through
binaries, thought That's the point that's that's why they
want to destroy humanity, of jealousy of our ability to have
compassion, and to be able to rationalize and think on our
second and third parts of our brain that they don't have.
That's the whole point in the lizard people behind it. I know
people are rolling their eyes right now Sam mo has flipped
this week. No, no. That's the point. That's where they want us
at. This is what this gentleman that clips you gave me you
supply me with my ask to say this is what they want. They
want us in the little pack or whatever. I don't know what you
call a pack of lizards.
It's a brood of lizards.
I think it's Brutus snakes. Right. So I think we
know it's a brunette. I don't know. Bro, we're brutal.
I'm so much better.
Oh, it's no wait. It's called a lounge?
around? Yes.
A group of lizards is called the lounge.
Whether that's even better. I
know. I love this.
So they want us all in the lounge of lizards, just reacting
with our little lizard brains. And not using what we have I
what we've been blessed with the ability to use the second and
third components of our brain to give us higher thought. And
that's what they're jealous about. That's that's why they
want to destroy us. That's the whole thing. The lizard people
behind it. And I put my I put my whole chest on.
Well, that's interesting, because when I said to Professor
De Smet, I said, Alright, so we have this severe hypnotic state
of the leaders. What do we do? He said, The most important
thing is keep talking. Keep speaking your truth. The minute
you stop talking is all over. And he said memes and mockery.
That's the way to destroy.
Why?
He says he says, it breaks the spell.
Because why? I mean, we had to look at it. Why, though? Because
it only our human brain can can interpret it. Yes, you're right.
The sarcasm, the mass humor, and that's why it really is as the
most effective tool on their systems because they can't run
our algorithm to the text sarcasm.
No way can that well, that may be one day, but nine is not
here.
How can you show the Spider Man pointing at the Spider Man meme?
And have to take what you mean by that? If you can't. I tell
you, they want us dumbed down. It's it's this is the reason why
they're coming to schools. It's a reason why they're coming for
the children. Oh,
this has been going on for a long time. Of course it was.
Absolutely Yeah.
But it's the closest they ever been to it. Because as you said,
I'm the same way kind of like teachers and media outdated.
Parents are outdated as well this we're at the same time of
you came about when television was first, like really becoming
television. And now parents had no clue what television was.
It's like this a stupid box to show pictures and play music and
play you know, play sound. They don't understand the cultural
integration it has the same way with smartphones and technology
is now the parents like kind of outdated? Sure. So this is the
opportune time to seize the young and turn them into little
baby lizard.
Well, I'm not I'm not gonna let that happen. I will fight tooth
and nail to stop the lizard people from stealing our
children.
That statement Do you like it? Go so me. Let's go ahead and
wrap up the lizard brain part two.
How does one when they're trying to make a huge change and take a
huge risk? silenced the lizard brains around them.
I wish we could get rid of it. You can't. The harder you try to
get rid of it, the stronger it becomes. What you can do is
acknowledge it go with and not but I feel this and I'm going to
do something that works as opposed to I feel this. But I'm
unable to move forward so the fear won't go away, especially
if we wanted to. But what we can do is learn to dance with one
way to think about it. No one says to their coach, how can I
run the Boston Marathon without getting tired? Getting tired
part of the deal? Well, the same thing is true with the work that
matters. How can I do it without being afraid you can't there's
something I carry with me and Pema chodron called this
shepstone and the idea is that When the fear shows up, there
you go.
acknowledge your shows up, I don't know that I identified,
the lizard shows
up, it might be fear, it might be anger, it's all that primeval
stuff. So the best advice I give people all the time is you
should start a blog and you should write a blog every day.
I've done 7512 haven't missed a day in more than 15 years. And
the reason is simple. Because it means every night you go to bed
saying tomorrow, I need to say something in writing. This is
gonna be out there for years to come.
But if every day we're writing something down and putting it
out there to the universe. Yeah, we're taking a risk, and we're
gonna have to live with those words and own those words
forever.
Exactly. That isn't that great. But
do you worry that in 2018, we're not looking to solve for getting
out of lizard brain. It seems like lizard brain is getting
celebrated and winning the game.
Wow. And that was from what?
That was from NBC better rules. That is with Seth Godin.
Oh, I
recognize I know Seth Godin. Sure. Oh, I recognize the voice.
Never surprised me who you know, you would be surprised to see
that you don't know someone was
it was interesting. We were just talking about Seth Godin,
because he's doing some other he's all over the place. I would
know he was doing a thing where climate change book. He's a
marketing guy. Now. That's why in this context, Seth Godin
knows what he's talking about. He knows very well how the
lizard brain works, because that's how he made his career in
advertising.
And advertising plays on your lizard brain sure does watch the
commercials on hire personal truck. Yeah, I had to go get a
new truck. Or my my mate, or my spouse or mate. would think I'm
less than, you know, the other guy. Oh, no,
it's like, of course. And if you drink this beer, look at the
women you're gonna get?
Yes. Yeah, he goes all back to where we are under attack by
lizard people. I mean, that's just say what's in you can take
that in, in the metaphorical way that I mean it right now as in.
We're surrounded by lizard brain, people that only think
with the most base human values. And that's a very, that's how
you end up with Mao's China.
And mo facts with Adam Curry is here to help ourselves and you
fight the lizard brain takeover. The fact that you're listening
probably means you're already in a good place. But for sure,
certainly with the outrage that's going on everywhere
today. We're all just seconds away from that flip that they
were talking about. Boom in a heartbeat. The lizard brain
kicks in, you're you're out of control.
Right and you and you make a mistake that you regret for a
very long time if you live in that space for too long. Well,
that's my wrap.
Hey, Mo thank you this, this was a I like this a lot. I learned
so much. Now I feel a lot more empowered about being able to
speak about the critical race theory, controversy. And of
course, you know, 67 episodes of schooling before this has helped
me understand a lot more about the people and the players
involved. This is another topper man, thank you so much.
I appreciate the album. And as I always say, pay attention to
everything and the truth reveal itself.
See in two weeks mo and the live next Wednesday,
eight o'clock.
You liked the song. I believe that children are our future.
Teach them well and let them be even way. Show them all the
beauty they possess in sa and give them a sense of pride. To
make it easier. Let the Children's Law remind us how we
used to be. Everybody's searching for hebo people need
someone to look up to. I never found anyone. My knee a lonely
place to be. And so I learned to depend I decided long ago to
walk in any one shadow. At least leave no matter they take me.
They can't take away was happening to me is easy to
achieve the greatest if by chance that's a special play you
to follow.
Thank you
