Introduction
In Episode 618 of the PBD Podcast titled "Even Jesus Loved Hoes," host Patrick Bet-David engages in a candid and intense conversation with guest Charleston White. The discussion delves into a plethora of topics ranging from personal struggles and upbringing to contentious political and social views.
Charleston White’s Personal Background and Upbringing
Charleston White begins by sharing his tumultuous childhood, marked by severe accidents and familial challenges. He recounts a life-altering incident at five years old when he fell into a washing machine, resulting in multiple surgeries and prolonged physical immobility.
"[03:44] Charleston White: I broke everything from my waist down. So I was immobile for probably almost two years."
Despite these hardships, White emphasizes his resilience and determination to overcome adversity.
Impact of Media and Society on Youth
White critiques the influence of media and entertainment on young African Americans, arguing that movies like "Colors" and the rise of gangster rap perpetuated destructive behaviors and mindsets within the community.
"[22:01] Charleston White: It was a group of teenagers that became a phenomenon like the Beatles, N.W.A... It was being reinforced either way."
He posits that the glorification of criminal activity and substance abuse in music and films contributed significantly to societal issues such as drug addiction and violence.
Political Views: Critique of Obama and Support for Trump
A substantial portion of the conversation centers around White’s critical views of former President Barack Obama and his support for Donald Trump. White alleges that Obama failed to address the specific needs of the black community, instead prioritizing other groups.
"[46:34] Charleston White: Obama spent eight years giving the homosexual community all of our civil rights. We still need a little bit more."
Contrastingly, White expresses admiration for Trump, arguing that a leader with military experience and physical prowess is more suitable for the presidency.
"[08:56] Charleston White: And have you always been like this?... [10:06] Charleston White: No, no. Mike Tyson, stupid."
Social Issues: Feminism, WNBA, and Planned Parenthood
White delivers strong opinions on feminism, the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA), and Planned Parenthood. He contends that modern feminism has fragmented traditional family structures, leading to increased single-parent households and societal instability.
"[30:06] Charleston White: Planned Parenthood is our new Hitler... It should be banned because it serves no purpose and no justice to the community it claims it's serving."
Regarding the WNBA, White criticizes the physical appearance and attire of the players, suggesting that their presentation lacks entertainment value.
"[26:42] Charleston White: Them lesbian chicks, man, them... most WNBA women ugly, they just start getting cute."
Views on Homosexuality and the LGBTQ+ Community
White holds controversial views on homosexuality, linking it to violence and societal decay. He argues that increased rights for the LGBTQ+ community have detracted from the struggles of the black community.
"[48:47] Charleston White: You saw what he [Obama]... I think he could get elected had he had a white woman. That's why Kamala couldn't get elected."
Community and Leadership
Despite his harsh criticisms, White emphasizes the importance of community-focused leadership and personal accountability. He advocates for leaders who can directly contribute to the welfare of their communities rather than relying on political alliances.
"[26:23] Charleston White: So how do you address it at this point? How do you address it now?... It starts in your mirror when you come through washing your face."
Personal Experiences with Violence and Community Work
White shares personal anecdotes about violence he has experienced and his efforts to aid the community through his youth organization. He highlights the systemic failures in supporting black youth and combating violence within the community.
"[94:28] Charleston White: They got to put together this big mafia type conspiracy RICO trial... They let one of our gangster niggas get killed by the police."
Conclusion and Final Thoughts
The episode concludes with White reflecting on his journey from adversity to community activism. He underscores the necessity of addressing internal community issues and fostering genuine leadership to enact meaningful change.
"[105:20] Adam: Let me tell you what I love about you...
"[105:32] Charleston White: Because can't nobody dictate to you about your life. God gave it to you."
