So it is now officially, Melanin March. Oh, shit. Okay, so this month's Melanin March Spotlight. All right. Will be what is considered widely one of the first civil rights movements here in America. This would be the Pullman Porters Strike. The Brotherhood of the Sleeping Car Porters and Maids. Commonly referred to as the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. BSCP was a labor union in the United states. Founded in 1925. It was the first labor union led by African Americans to receive a charter in Africa. In the American Federation of Labor, AFL, the. The BSCP gathered a membership of 18,000 passenger railway workers across Canada, Mexico and the United States. Beginning after the Civil War, the job of the Pullman Porter. The job of the Pullman porter had become important and important means of work by African Americans. The leaders of the BSCP, including A. Philip Randolph, its founder and first president. Milton Webster, vice president and lead negotiator, and C.L. dellums, vice president and second president, became leaders in the civil rights movement, especially concerning fair employment, continue to play a significant role in the movement after it focused on the eradication of segregation in the southern United States. BSCP members such as Ed Nixon were among the leaders of local desegregation movements by virtue of their organizing experience, constant movement between communities and freedom from economic dependence on local authorities. As a result a decline in railway transportation in the 1960s. As a result of a decline in railway transportation in the 1960s, BSCP membership declined. Emerged in 1978 with the Brotherhood of Railway and Airline Clerks. BRAC known as the Transportation Communications International Union. So shout out to the Pullman. Yeah. Porters. The Brotherhood of the Sleeping Car. Shout out. This is what the precursor to what we now call the civil rights movement. So shout out to these brothers, man. And shout out to the women as well, that were also maids on those rail cars. Of course. Of course. And that concludes our Melody March Spotlight. Hey, you know what I'm saying? And on top of that, we gonna find a new acronym for every month. We're gonna find a new name for every month that got something to do with black history.

And we, I know if we don't take them seriously, the Ayatollah don't take them seriously. I know he ain't taking these niggas seriously. He told the black Americans, look, y' all been through enough. We ain't got this ain't got nothing to do with y'. All. So if you live in Wichita, you better be ducking, son. Better keep your eyes on the skies. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You want me to believe a black man with a. With a hoodie that said Property of Allah that was probably made in India was a mass shooter in Austin? I miss when the CIA gave a man I wish. I miss when they tried. I miss when they tried, son. They used to try. They used to. They used to do it for the love of the game. They used to love the game. They used to love the hustle. They don't love it no more. That might as well just be AI. That's what they use to plan it. Okay, how would we just type. Just a prompt. How do we. How do we stage a terrorist attack? You know your used to give a. Y' all did 9 11, son. Yeah, y' all did 9 11, son. That's a big fall off big from. From 911 to property of Allah on the hoodie. Come on, man, you ain't even trying no more, man. And it's because of this administration. This just put people around him to protect him from an indictment. These things don't know how to do them jobs. You. If the year was 2000. Oh, it was 2000. If the year was 2000. Do you know what you have to do, what you have to accomplish to be the director of the FBI when the government was serious? Huh? Preach, man. Listen, bro, we wasn't worried about bushing 9 11. We weren't worried about Bush. We knew the FBI had us. They was holding us down. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We knew it was a in there very decorated. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? 20 years military. Yeah. Probably done waterboarded a few. Oh, he killed somebody. Yeah. He got a body on his belt. Yeah. Used to have to get a body to be the FBI director. Now. Now all you gotta do is give yourself a champagne shower. All you gotta do is coon. You can be cool. You're coconut coons. Yeah, man. Wrong with this light eyed bastard. Coconut curry. Coconut curry coon. Cash for tail in the. In the building. The coconut curry coon better giving herself a champagne shower. Champagne Patel. Champagne Patel back there celebrating with the US Hockey team. And you supposed to think. And you think supposed to take the United States of America seriously. I don't want to ever see somebody associated with the FBI have a drink. I want Them to drink water and black coffee. Predominantly. Huh. I want a. With his sleeves rolled up. Little Russell at the time. Been doing surveillance for a few days. Dark shades on. Dark shades. Dark that seen. Hey, he seen aliens. Yeah. Ain't that classified? With this ass in office because he put people around him protect himself. He forgot that they had a whole damn job to do. Never in a month. Never in my goddamn 35 years. What have you seen? 35 years. A goddamn coconut curry. Cool. Champagne shower. Champagne giving themselves a champagne sour backstage with the. With the. With the fucking hockey team. This how bad you want to be a cracker at this point? Any. Any need or want to assimilate into whiteness. Makes me feel like you support pedophilia, sex trafficking and war crimes. But this will happen. Man. When that massage got you blackmailed, you just gotta. Sometimes you gotta fire off a missile. Fired off a missile, killed nearly 100 schoolgirls. No. No Hamas, no insurgents, no rebel groups. Children, little girls. This is what we doing with our tax dollars. It's because we live in a war machine. Okay? Live in a war machine. In a war machine, you are either a warrior or a victim. And a lot of people like to use woke as a moral position. While radical and revolutionary energy has been the default for black people here in America, for the most part, we have no choice but to be woke. We coined the term stay woke because back in the green book days, if you weren't woke, you'd be strung up from a tree. Which is why America likes to platform coons. Because how else are you going to get people to buy into a system that they're skeptical of? And if you don't show them that there is success and conformity. But this is also why the entertainers of yesteryear were so revolutionary. You don't get a James Brown. I'm black and I'm proud. If he. If he worried about conforming and he bought his own jet. Living in America now, the fall off. It happens to the best of them. You don't get the Olympics. You see you niggas is at the Olympics with the hockey team giving yourself a champagne shower. My Olympians won first and second place and raised their fist up in the air. Because being a radical and a revolutionary. A revolutionary is a default setting for most black people in America because we've always been skeptical of the system. Because we knew this system wasn't never meant to serve us, meant to persecute us, meant to brutalize us, but not to serve. So being empathetic to the plight of others and pro oppressed people is a great posture to take. It is a great position for the ally, but it's often performative. So while it may be a good position to be an ally and pro oppressed people, it's often a performance that leaves black people to fight their fights alone. I don't think I heard too many people, especially white people, doing anything but making excuses for the. For the white man with Tourette's that happened to call Delroy Orlando and Michael B. Jordan the hard R. And it said that that wasn't the first time that happened that night. Now there were other slurs, homophobic slurs said that night. Those got bleeped out. They were a man that said free Palestine. That happened to get bleeped out. Leave it in, leave it in. Then we get to the. The contrast is the NAACP awards. These men were celebrated, celebrated rightfully so celebrated by their own people. Which is why I believe we should be like 2026 to 2027. Any award shows, that's not our shit. We should be boycotting. Hell, you win. They might not, they might not air it anyway. We should be boycotting. But to be woke, to be woke, staying woke, regardless of how they tried to bastardize the term is a default setting for most black people and a moral position for allies. Even if it is performative, it is a great posture to have, but the moral position is only respected by moral people. So to take a moral position means that you need morality on the opposite end to receive that. And that's why we struggle to see tangible progress. But we're constantly massaged by symbolic victories because our government and the people who control policy and legislation are largely immoral and largely can suppress the access to change. So we'll massage you with some symbolic victories. We'll name the street Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard while trying to undo everything he fought for in civil rights. And worse than that, most oppressed people have an idea of freedom that puts them in the seat of the oppressor. Most oppressed people's idea of freedom is being an oppressor. And this is largely the reason for our diaspora wars. Because what we really arguing about, who's got more culture, who knows where they're born? All these colonized people arguing about who's better than each other in English, trying to ascend that ladder to whiteness. I'm telling you right now, if you want to assimilate into whiteness, if you want to assimilate into success in this structure and to be likened by white People, given everything that we know now, that means that you want to assimilate into pedophilia, sex trafficking, murder, and cannibalism. That's what you want to assimilate into. And I don't want to. I don't want to talk to you or argue with you anyway. I don't got nothing to say to you anyway. As far as I'm concerned, you could take the same fate that I would have them take the guillotine. Oh, you think it's cool to coon Guillotine? Coconut curry Guillotine. Listen, let me tell you something. Let me tell you how I know a lot of you niggas is performative. This is what I mean when I say performative. This is what I mean when I say it's a position. It's a posturing, but it's not a practice. I said to Guillotine. You know what they said? Big cat. It's pronounced guillotine. Shut your bitch ass up. So it seemed like the time for grammar when we talking about chopping heads off. That seemed like time for grammar. You know what? Put your tongue in the guillotine. We'll let you keep the head. We'll let you keep your head. Hey, yo. But since you got so much stupid shit to say and you're not using your cabeza, we're just gonna put the tongue in there, little baby. Guillotine. Chop that tongue off. Shut you the up. Shut you right the up. Talking about it's pronounced. It's pronounced you ain't gonna do. It's pronounced you a scary ass. That's the pronunciation that I heard. That's what I heard when you said it's pronounced Guillotine. What I heard is I'm. I'm a little scary ass. I don't want to talk about this. This makes me uncomfortable. Let's talk about grammar, guys. Oh, yeah, we back. You talking about you thought. Oh, oh, you thought we back. It was just interviews and we back. We back. It'll be back to interviews next week, But for right now, oh, we back. It's me and motherfucking big Ice Cup. United States soldiers. If you on an army base overseas and you within a motherfucking country or two of Iran, keep your eyes on Skies, brother. You know what I'm saying? All my brothers that join the military for some stability, some structure, and a Camaro, it's game time. This nigga just got on the news and said, some of y' all gonna have to die. Seen a young lady post the lunch they giving out crab legs, you know, Godspeed and draft Baron Trump big cat. Yo, what are we talking about, man? I got some more to talk to you, man. I got some more to say to you, man. This, this, this woke position. You know what I'm saying? It's good, this is a great, it's a great, it's a great stance to take. But how, how, how many people in this country is it not a. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's great to have empathy and it's great to garner empathy for oppressed people. That's a great position to take. But how many people have to have that as a default setting for survival? And what does it mean to live in a war machine? This year marks the 250th anniversary of America. 226 of those years spent in armed conflict. This is a war machine. 250 years old. 250 years of state violence against its own citizens. Founded on violence against its own citizens, but were considered property back then. Used to ship in migrants, vagrants to be used for labor, and then assume violence against them. What is a war machine? A war machine will bomb and destabilize your country, organize a coup in your country, replace the leader with somebody for their own interest, send the citizens fleeing, grant them asylum, and then criminalize their existence. That's a war machine. Send you fleeing, open up the doors and tell you it's illegal to be inside. That's a war machine. 98% of its existence spent in armed conflict. And those 22 years of peace wasn't peaceful for the people who lived here. Wasn't peaceful for black people. So you can't even consider it peace. We'll be right back at this commercial break. I got some more shit to talk, but I need to update these notes. We back. How do you survive the war machine? Now I said before that the only way to survive or thrive in a war machine is to become a warrior. Either that or you become a victim. What's wrong, nigga? I was texting my mom like, you finna sneeze? I was like, what the fuck wrong with this dude? Step one is to radicalize individuals. This is how it starts for most people. This is how it started for me. This is how it starts for most people. They become radicalized, whether by an event, by life experience, by a book. Something will come along that will just open your eyes to this war machine that is America. But before being radicalized, you have to recognize that you are in a war machine. You have to come to terms with that, you have to be accepting of that. You have to reject American exceptionalism. And this is the precursor to the radicalization. Once most people wake up to the idea that maybe America ain't so fucking great and never has been, they become radicalized. And this can happen through literature. I would say a lot of people become radicalized through literature. I would say a lot of people become radicalized by hearing positivity and love spoken over black people or over whatever group they identify with. And. And. And through that radicalization, you can center identity over ideology and idealism. You have to recognize the overlaps in experience and treatment. So oftentimes when we talk diaspora wars, we don't look at the overlaps that we have in experience with the colonizer and the treatment from the colonizer. Oftentimes we look inside the side because it's easier. It's a lot easier to attack a black American than to respect the history of the black American and give them credit for paving the way for you to be here and experience the freedoms that you do experience. Just so you can kiss the white man's ass. Black people made it possible for you to kiss the white man's ass. But the reason why I don't engage in diaspora wars is because I note the trauma and how it affects us all differently. And it affects us all differently emotionally and psychologically. A lot of people have to break those chains off their minds. A lot of people have to let go of the borders that was put up on the map and understand your connection to all the people that look like you, all the people that share in a cultural expression. All of the overlaps in cuisine, all of the overlaps and customs, all of the overlaps in dance. All of these overlaps will help you center identity over ideology and idealism. Being a patriot for America will not create safety from America. You could be used as a tool of propaganda. They'll probably Photoshop a hoodie that says Property of Allah on you, but it will not create a safety from America. So we have to note how the trauma affects us all differently emotionally and psychologically. And we have to understand that a part of the power is the trauma. They, they, they. You pick up this goddamn phone and it's gonna serve you trauma all day and all night. You pick up this phone and it tells you women is the problem, but it also will tell you that dick pills is the solution. It tell you that in order to get women, you gotta have money. And this episode is sponsored by Price Picks. That's what they'll do. To you, that's what they'll do to you. But this episode is not sponsored by Prize Picks because we don't with that gambling bunch of young men, whole generation of young men and gamble they fucking money away both in day trading and on sports betting. So you have to understand that this is a. This is a system that will keep you traumatized and nurse your wounds. This is what pimping is. This is how they pimp you. They cut your face and then they give you the stitches and then they nurse you back to health and you forget that they don't want to cut your face. So understand how the trauma affects everyone a little differently. Stockholm syndrome is a real thing. A lot of the people that you grew up in the same house with, under the same parenting, growing up in the same time frame, and you will see them kiss the ass of the system while rejecting their blackness, while rejecting their Hispanicness, while rejecting their Africanness, while rejecting their Caribbean is. While rejecting their Indianness. Huh? They, they. They start to become a lot. Coconut curry. Coconut curry. They forget what the colonizer did and they try to be more like the colonizer. They try to please the colonizer in hopes that they will no longer be colonized. Trying to please a colonizer is a telltale sign that you have been colonized. So you have to recognize the overlaps in experience, even if that's not ethnically. You may be Syrian, you may be Palestinian. I might be black American. This person may be Haitian. Are we all oppressed by the system? When they say immigrants, does that mean all of us can get stopped? When they say black, does that mean all of us can get stopped? When they say illegal, does that mean all of us can get stopped? Well, then that means we have an overlap in experience and treatment from the system. We might be in the same class. And when you center identity over ideology and idealism, you can survive in the war machine because you can't survive the war through isolation. You can become more vulnerable through isolation, but you cannot survive through isolation. If you look at the brothers that's in the foi, they're extremely organized because they have centered identity. Now, while they may have an ideology intertwined, it's one of the most widespread recognized ideologies in the world through Islam. So in some points, it has become an identity. But for the FOI specifically, they center their blackness for the noi. The noi, they center their blackness. It doesn't mean that they don't have shortcomings, but they also don't reject outsiders. You know, they they, you know, they. They come in peace. They show a lot of love, and a wife shows a lot of love. They know I ain't never joining, but they show me love. We have to note that the trauma affects us all differently, emotionally and psychologically. And this is where you get to embrace in community without reverting back to individualism. Now, a big flaw of embracing community is that is the antithesis of capitalism. Capitalism tells you that you can get it all done by yourself. You can be the coach, the player, and the owner. You don't got to pass the ball. You pass the body yourself. You don't gotta get checked in. You check yourself in the game. Not only are you the coach, the owner, and the player, but you own the ball. Show ball, it's always your ball. And it breeds an identity rooted in individualism. And this is where we get shit like it's lonely at the top. Why? Well, you certainly didn't get there by yourself. So why are you alone now? Take a team to get you to the top. Why you feel alone? Ain't the team good enough? Oh, yeah, you, you, you. You didn't play the whole game. Now you exploit and everybody. So you are. It is lonely at the top. It's very lonely when you exploit another people, especially people that don't know they're being exploited. So you have to embrace community without reverting back to individualism. And a great way to start embracing community is to understand intangible resources. You gotta understand the intangibles. Sometimes we need tangible things. We need. Okay, what's the first thing we think of? We need somebody's good at agriculture. We need a carpenter. But we don't think about the singers. We don't think about the storytellers. We don't think about the comedians. We don't think about the willingness to entertain, to serve others. We don't think about the willingness to cook. We don't think about the willingness to serve. We don't think about the willingness. And somebody is just naturally a caregiver for children and the old. We don't think about the intangible things. And that will make you revert back to individualism. Because the things that you're being offered, you don't feel like you can do anything with. Because we also live in a system that heavenly, heavenly, heavenly relies on you having to monetize every aspect of your life because it has commodified every aspect of your life. So you can't embrace the intangibles. Therefore, it is so easy to Revert back to individualism. Four, if you have to reject propaganda and those who believe in it. Now, corporate propaganda will tell you Iran attacked Israel today. They dropped a bomb in Tel Aviv. They dropped a bomb in Abu Dhabi, seemingly for no reason. This message is brought to you by Pfizer. Okay, all right. Well, that's some bullshit. You need to find independent sources of media. Social media is an. Has done an amazing job of platforming communication through individuals who are in the center of the overlap in identity through experience and treatment. People who are in your class. Huh? People who identify with your experience and treatment because they've gotten the same experience and treatment through this system from this system. Now, the thing about propaganda is a lot of people don't know what it is. So propaganda by definition is the systemic, deliberate decimation of bias, misleading or emotional information to shape public opinion. Opinion, promote a cause, or damage an opponent. An opponent. Again, propaganda is the systemic, deliberate dissemination of biased, misleading, or emotional information to shape public opinion, promote a cause or damage an opponent. It uses technique. It uses techniques like bandwagoning, scapegoating, and fear mongering across media, advertising and politics to manipulate rather than inform the audience. This goes back to number two, recognize the trauma and how it affects everyone differently, both emotionally and psychologically. A lot of times that trauma that's affecting them both emotionally and psychologically is propaganda because it uses techniques like bandwagoning, scapegoating, fear mongering across media, advertisement and politics to manipulate rather than inform the audience. And it says it will be misleading or emotional information to shape the public opinion. You have to reject propaganda. I'm going to tell you that if you recognize you are in a war machine, then look at the people who thrive in the war machine, not the independent people, because the people who thrive in the war machine offer a sponsor by the war machine. So look at its sponsors. Look who's giving a bag to. I'm going to go on a limb and tell you this right now. If that podcast is sponsored by Prize Picks, it might be a part of the machine. It might be a part of the machine. Maybe those individuals don't know, but some of them do. And they go moe on us. They go moc on us. You know, it used to be mob money over bitches, then it was moe money over everything. And now we go moc money over community. So you have to reject the propaganda and those who believe in it. Understanding how to recognize propaganda comes through literature. Let's look up a motherfucking book. Book on how Shorty just told me about this. Well, there's this, I've been very simply, there's a book called How Propaganda Works. We can start there and then we can start with the Shock Doctrine by Naomi Klein. Media Control, the Spectacular Achievements of Propaganda by Chomsky. And then we go. Propaganda by Bernays. Edward. Oh, Edward L. Bernays. So you, you can, you can, you know, you can, you can, you can learn what propaganda is. You can learn how to recognize propaganda. You can learn that the corporate sponsored news is serving you nothing but propaganda. If you are watching the news and it says, you know, it's supposed to be a trusted source, but it's in the entertainment category, maybe it's not such trusted source. It's a poor. If it's, if it's, if it's sponsored by the big corporations in the war machine, probably not a trusted source. But rejecting propaganda and those who believe in it will strengthen the community. Because this is not an evangelist mission. You are not on a mission of evangelism. When you get radicalized very, in the very beginning of your deconstruction and, and survival in the war machine, when you get radicalized as an individual, it will send you on an evangelistic journey. You want to tell everybody, but then you start centering identity and you find like minded people. You let go of the idealism and then you'll garner empathy for the people and recognize the overlaps in experience and treatment. You'll have empathy and understanding that the trauma affects us all differently, both emotionally and psychologically. And then you will be ready to embrace community without reverting back to individualism. You'll be able to reject, recognize and reject propaganda and those who believe in it. Because this is not an evangelical journey. So you'll reject propaganda. You'll be able to recognize propaganda and then you'll realize what the revolution is. And the revolution is love. Now when I first said the revolution was love. Because you don't do your due diligence and watch the entire episode for context, you, you, you get it off the clip and the word love makes you feel very uncomfortable. Especially in a war machine. There should be no room for love in a war machine. There is no morality in a war machine. So the word love makes you feel awkward. It makes you reject it. But what would you do for the people you love? Would you kill for the people you love? Because if you would kill for the people you love, then the revolution is love. Would you die for the people you love? Because if you'll die for the people you love, Then the revolution is love. Will you love yourself like you love the people? Because if you love yourself like you love the people, then the people love you like they love themselves. Then the revolution is love. Oftentimes we think about revolution and we think about bloodshed. When revolution is love, it's an act of love. Bloodshed might be a byproduct of that love, but true love, revolution and a war machine that constantly gets you to doubt yourself, that constantly inflicts you with trauma, that constantly has messages for you about hating yourself, is love. In a war machine, what they want you to do is become nihilistic. They want to shock your system. They want to give you ptsd. They want to shock your system and traumatize you to the point where you don't recognize love. You only recognize war. You only recollect the violence. You only recollect the pain, therefore rendering you unable to love yourself and fearful of the machine destined to die. And that's why the revolution is love. If you live in a system. That invests billions of dollars in propaganda, billions of dollars in messaging towards individualism, billions of dollars in traumatizing you and then mending your wombs, billions of dollars of serving idealism, ideology, American exceptionalism, billions of dollars to conformity, and all of these things require you to hate yourself, to question yourself, to have imposter syndrome, to be fearful of your neighbor, to be riddled with anxiety and insecurity. Then the revolution is love. We'll be right back after these commercial breaks. We. We back. What's up, big cat? What's going on, baby? Oh, man, you know what I'm saying? Feeling radical. You feeling radical? Feeling revolutionary. Yeah, we're gonna get into a couple of these voicemails. We're gonna start. Oh, I recognize that right off the top. 313. Oh, we're gonna start at 313.

My man J. Scott. Man, I'm telling you, it got me doing a whole lot of stuff reflecting everything. But aside from that episode, the episode where y' all was talking about heads will roll, I completely agree with the sentiment. Gotta go. Gotta go, bro. Like, and I've been saying this for the longest. Like, all the stuff that's been conspiracy theories and everything I already knew was true. But the fact that this is sticking in our face, like, we have to do something. But I know a lot of people is not about to be down with that as far as burning everything down. So, like, I don't know, what do y' all think would be the best case scenario as far as a form of protest? Because real life, being black is a protest, being in this country.

Hello. Deontay Kyle and Big Ice Cub Cat. My name is Jerry Hardaway. I'm calling you from Harnett County, North Carolina. I am a cousin, and I'm calling you because I'm a political cousin. I am running for North Carolina State senate in the 12th district, which covers Harnett County, Lee county, and part of Sampson county in North Carolina. I'm running because I'm tired of yelling at tv. I want to be the change I want to see. I've always been politically aware. I've always voted. Even growing up, I would bubble in my parents ballots, you know, when they voted. And you know, of course there's the affordability issues. Of course there's the homelessness and the housing crisis. But more than anything, I'm focused on education. Education and broadband access. There's a whole lot of other things I could talk about. I've been on a listening tour. I've met so many people in my community that like, I feel like almost feel like a farmer, you know? Cause now all these people, I'm watering them, I'm giving them resources. I'm explaining complex government things to them. Because also I'm a journalist. I write for the Carolinian newspaper. And as a journalist, I spent a lot of time in the North Carolina General Assembly. Of course, there's nothing really. To discuss now, because North Carolina is the only state in the nation without a budget because Republicans run both the House and the Senate, and they're in disagreement. And so by North Carolina not having a budget, that means that no one gets a raise. All the rates in the budget stay at the same. Excuse me. As the previously passed budget. So we're just in a deadlock here. And, you know, they all the news, they're like, north Carolina is number one state to do business. North Carolina, number one state for education. And I'm just like, y' all selling people dreams on this mainstream media, and that's why y' all are so important. But this message is getting kind of long, and I just want to let you know, I'm a cousin, and I'm running, and I'd appreciate any support you or your audience would be able to pour into this campaign. Early voting is going on right now in February 28th, and election day is March 3rd. Again, I'm Gerry Hardaway. I'm running for State Senate in Harnett County, Lee county, and Sampson County, North Carolina. And I appreciate the support. I appreciate this podcast, and God be with y'. All.

Hopefully you guys are having a great day weekend slash week. I have a. I wouldn't necessarily say problem, but maybe a slight situation, a predicament, if you will. My name is blank. I'm 32. I'm a husband and a dad to two kids. I'm a disabled veteran. Plus I'm also a truck driver. Just started driving in September. Plan to get my hazmat and tanker to haul fuel or cryogenics next year. At the current rate, I'm going to be pulling in just over 6 figs. My debt should all be paid off by next year. Sometime next year. In 2027, sometime. Except for my car. And even that's not a crazy payment. It's under 500. My debt to income rational ratio will be phenomenal by the end of the year. And I say all that to say this. In 2027, my lease is up and I plan on moving to Florida. Oh, I plan on moving from Florida to Colorado. Mostly for my kids. One is on the spectrum. And for them to experience nature, seasons, a good education system, et cetera. I want to be a local driver so I can spend more time with my kids and buy my wife a laundromat, help when I can, and eventually buy more laundromats, possibly Add commercial and rental properties to the portfolio and stop driving altogether if the money is right. The downside is I have no idea how to go about doing that, which is buying an existing laundromat. I don't know if I'm entitled to any special programs because I'm a veteran, a disabled one, or that. I've looked into laundromat owners on social media. Those people want you to pay 300 plus to get a course and there's no telling them if I will benefit from that. This is a smart man, or if it's even legit. I may be selfish of me, but I feel like the game is to be told not so shit. I agree. I agree. Nigga trying to sell you some game. He's on you some bullshit for sure. Bullshit. I guess what I'm asking you guys, what would you recommend I do for that matter? Oh, what would you recommend I do? Or anyone for that matter, if they want to buy, not start a business, Maybe you can point us in the right direction. I want to gather all the information possible as early as I can. I will. In return, once everything is said and done, help people who want to help without hiding behind a pay wall and more when I'm able. Thank you guys. Keep doing what you're doing for the community. Love the content, stay safe, stay black, stay blessed. Listen, if there are any cousins, whether that be in the discord or whether that be in the. In the Patreon, which is the same thing, or whether that just be cousins that watch this videos, these videos are still stuck in. Sticking around for this. If you have any way to advise this young man so he can get on his feet and help his family. Not get on his feet, but get his foot, get his foot in the door in this business and help his family and get him out of the truck, which I can imagine being disabled can be somewhat painful at times, being in a fixed position. I'm not sure what your disability is, but I know that shit was killing my back. So if there are any cousins out there that has information that is legitimate information where this brother ain't got to pay for no course or do no fuck shit like that and y' all can point him in the right direction, please, please, please comment below so I can advise him. Please comment below so that I can shoot the information to him. And I'm sure he's going to be watching, but I have his email and I'm going to shoot it directly to him. And you know, we, we, we need to stick together. We need to pass that information. And as long as you trying to tell some game and you ain't trying to sell some game, come holl at us right over here. As far as me, that's not my area of expertise. So I'm gonna reach out to the cousins and hope that y' all can fulfill this man's needs. We appreciate you right now brother, and we'll talk to you soon. This is an emergency broadcast podcast facing homelessness. Good afternoon, Deontay. I messaged you as one of my last options. I may lose my home on 35 26. Lost my job and unemployment delayed my payments. The job market is terrible. Finally landed a job last week at a hotel here in Overland Park, Kansas City. I was wondering if you knew of any resources that are dependable to help me with making rent this month. I don't know if I have the fight left in me to struggle through this again. Any advice or help will do. Thank you very much. Now this person is not asking for money. There is no cash app, there is no paypal, there is no anything attached. What they asking for is direction into a program. So again, this is one for the cousins. If any of you live in Kansas or close to Kansas or know anything about Kansas programs that can help people that are facing eviction, please, please reach out and let me know. But they said by 3 5, this will be out on 34 and you know, hopefully it's something we can help turn around or at least figure out how they can get an extension. All right, this last one, I need some advice please. Hello, my name is nas. I'm a 26 year old black girl. That's not her full name. That's why I said it. Hello, my name is nas. I'm a 26 year old black girl. I have spent the last seven years. B e, I, b f a progressing. I, I don't know what that means. I spent the last seven years, I, I would assume being a progressing cook in the DMV area. Corporately I hit that ceiling on what I can make as a cook unless I find a position, a sous chef, but that's really hard and with really grueling hours. My dad is a carpenter, but I've seen that lifestyle up front. He's been telling me about how things have changed and they're not really making no money in particular in the union that he's a part of. So I'm sure that's a dead mission. Looking into starting my trucking journey in the process of getting my dlt, just wanting Some waiting on some clearance letters. I have no children. It's just me. Let me know what you think if you think I'm heading in the right direction. I'm not expecting to make a whole bunch of money right now up front, but I'm sure, I'm sure you'll get to it. Yeah, I know what I know what your ass can't be goddamn secretary and assisted making my head hurt while I have the time. Just curious what you would recommend while I'm trying to keep my head on straight. Okay, here's the thing.cdl. you're gonna get some money off the top. Like not crazy, but you'd probably be making like 7 to 900 a week. Now what I will tell you is if you want to go get some real money, you go. You go be a driver. About that time. God damn. The revolution is sleep. The revolution is tired. Go to the mo fields. If you haul for the mo fields you might make, you might crack 100k your first year and it's only going to go up in there. That's oil and tanking. Or you could be a dry, a sand hauler, all of these things. Figure out what positions are needed in the oil fields where you don't have to stay on an oil field because it's like the male to female ratio is insanity. And you know sexual violence is very prevalent in those spaces. So I wouldn't suggest you do anything that's going to put you at risk for physical harm. But if you want to make the money quick, I would get into what the last dude told you about that hazmat stuff. The hauling fuel, hauling oil, you know, I'm saying work for air gas, somebody like that, hauling nitrogen. You know these things is like. While they may be a little bit more considerably dangerous jobs, you know what I'm saying? With understanding how to drive those tanker trucks with the different weight differentials and things like that. People do that every day and they do a great job and I'm pretty sure it won't. It'll be the same for you as long as you stay careful. If you are done with this corporate cook, I would say go get the cdl, try it out for a year, see what you like, see what you don't like. Always understand that there's an opportunity to make more money if you have the right connection. But you will make some money and you'll be able to save some money. And the entry point of it is fairly easy, you know, like six week course you'll be. But by the time from. From the time you get your license to the time you start working could roughly be two, two weeks, like, easily. Especially when you go to school because they send recruiters to the school so you'll be able to talk to people that is likely going to recruit you. I know Wiley Sanders like to start people out right off the rip. They like to hire new drivers because they can teach you how to drive the way they want you to drive. So lastly, I want some advice on my brother. We have been sharing a car insurance for a long time and he's gotten an accident. Yeah, dog, I. It's just the typing. He's gotten into an accident ever since he's got his license. Five accidents total every year. One to two accidents. Here's a. Learn from the experience. You gotta stop. Yeah, that, that. That is a very. You need to get off the insurance with this asap as soon as humanly possible. This needs his license taken. He needs a bus pass. Yeah. It's time to get that brother on public trans. Yeah. Ain't no way you getting on a accident every year. Twice a year. Twice a year. That average is crazy. DMV area. It's time then. Don't never tell him to get my cdl. Nah. Please keep him off the road. Yeah, yeah. Keep the public safe. He need to be a chef. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Y' all need to change positions that need to get to cooking.

This gonna have you paying 1,200amonth. He gonna have. He gonna have you paying trucker insurance for a goddamn four wheeler. Is this off your insurance? One or two accidents a year? Yeah. What is he doing? They gonna take this license soon. Yeah. You might not have to worry about it. Yeah, yeah. He ain't gonna be able to drive no damn way. Drive, but get your name from a tattoo.

I just want to rap, you know. I just want to rap was on my side. Yeah. Was my faith was on, yeah. They say without the proper labor, faith don't stand a chance. I put my faith and faith and stand on fertile land. I planted seeds, Adeline deed turning the trees before rest in peace teas get printed to me unless impeded. Matter of fact, that got me thinking back when Mr. Love was tending to his garden, schooling me to annuity before he grabbed his clubs to go golfing. And it's no coincidence that doe still had the caddy back when woods were still the best. Don't let me roll off course here, Georgie Pops was dropping jams while I was lighting cigs. But you know, I too was listening with both ears. You see, that's the best that I can do. Wisdom is the application of knowledge. I was picking up what he was putting down just wasn't applying it. I ain't denying it. Nah, maybe I was too busy trying to find the balance between religion and science. Trying to get to the bottom of everything while being the highest. Like a pilot's roots. Am I right brother? Cause I was simultaneously relaying it through reason and rhyming that I sought for us dissecting systems responsible for our imprisonment, the visionary with astigmatism and scarred courtiers. If love is blind, then what am I? You can't fight fate. That's why.
