The NAACP has launched the 'Out of Bounds' campaign, urging Black athletes and fans to withhold support from public schools in states that are attacking Black voting rights, as a form of economic pressure to force institutions to defend Black political representation. The campaign targets eight priority states (Tennessee, Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas, and Georgia) and their flagship institutions, arguing that Black athletes have built college athletics into a multibillion-dollar industry while those same states simultaneously weaken Black political power through gerrymandering, voter suppression, and other tactics. The initiative connects economic power with political accountability, emphasizing that states cannot celebrate Black excellence on Saturdays while silencing Black communities at the ballot box on Tuesdays.

19 2026 coming up on roller Martin unfiltered streaming live on the Blackar Network. I'm back in DC which is the 8th annual Anthony Anthony Anderson celebrity golf classic literally driving in from the airport. We're going to talk about the NAACP uh calling for black athletes in certain states to say no to those goals and to enter the transfer portal. We'll talk about that uh next. Also, uh Donald Trump uh creates his own slush fund for the white domestic terrorist uh who raided the capital. Yeah, lots to discuss there. And we also are learning about the secret deal that he signed.
The IRS cannot investigate him, his family members, or his companies. I keep telling you this man is absolutely corrupt. Plus, we talk about the absolutely impotent governor of de of of Colorado, Democrat Jared Polus, who um uh let out uh an election denier who was unapologetic in cheating. Lots to break down. It is time to bring the funk on Roland Martin unfiltered on the Black Star Network.
Let's go. He's got whatever he's on it.
Whatever it is, he's got the scoop, the fine. And when it breaks, he's right on time and it's rolling. Best believe he's putting it down from sports to news to politics with entertainment just for gigs. He's rolling.
It's go roll.
Yeah. Yeah. It's rolling my tent. Yeah.
Rolling with rolling now.
He's funky. He's fresh. He's real. The best. You know he's rolling now.
Southern states like Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Florida, Tennessee, and others are very good uh at um targeting and ending black folks uh public representation, but they cannot survive without black athletes in football and basketball. Well, the NAACP uh is calling announced today their out of bounds initiative calling on black players as well as alumni not to support those southern states that are engaging in attacks on black voting rights. Uh this of course has been talked about a lot. Uh some of the people have suggested that this is what athletes uh should actually do uh to withhold their talents. Of course, a lot of these same folks uh following Donald Trump and MAGA have been uh targeting DEI, have been targeting other uh black initiatives.
So, this out out of bounds campaign of course, which is national uh and again targeting black athletes, their family, alumni, uh fans, and supporters to withhold athletic participation as well as donations to these schools. NAACP identified eight priority states.
Tennessee, Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas, as well as Georgia. Their targets, the state's flagship institutions that generate hundreds of millions of dollars in financial support. Talic McMillan is a director of the NAACP's youth and college division. He joins us right now.
Um, and you know, Tyler, one of the things that we discussed last week, I said really all, you know, to get this thing really started, you need one, you need one of those from football top 300 recruits to say, I'm not going to go to one of those schools. And if that thing goes public, uh it's going to send a shutter uh throughout athletics because these white schools and ads and administrators uh and donors, they are going to be scared to death of more black talent following the lead. But the key is getting one person to say no m.
>> Yeah, absolutely. And it's always great to be on with the Roland uh the Roland Martin unfiltered family. uh this campaign that that we launched today is more uh than sports. It's about power.
It's about ownership. It's about accountability because black athletes, as you have said, has helped build college athletics into a multibillion dollar industry, especially football and basketball as we look at here. But yet, many of these same states are benefiting from black talent are actively working to weaken black political representation in power. As we know, black students and and athletes are not just participants and just players on the field. They are economic drivers. Their talents fill stadiums. Their talents sell merchandise. Their talent drives television ratings. And their talents generate millions in revenue for universities and states. This is about ownership and taking back that ownership and encouraging young black athletes to recognize that their talent has value far beyond a field or a court. Um and uh we as we say, you know, states cannot celebrate black excellence on a Saturday while silencing black communities at the ballot box on a Tuesday. there cannot be applause for black athletes while black voting power is being erased. And so we got we got to take our ownership back.
Um and so that that that that is what this this uh campaign is all about.
>> What is a plan to educate uh these parents and athletes? Um are there plans to hold forms? Are the plans to um to listen the list are public? uh these recruiting lists. Uh does the NAACP plan on sending letters or anything along those lines to each one of these top recruits?
>> Yeah, absolutely. It's always a goal of the NAACP and and especially the youth and college division to continue to train and to organize and give our folks the tools and the resources as we are rolling out these campaigns. But we also want to lift up the importance that we stand with our historically black colleges and universities that have always stood at spaces where black talent and black culture and black leadership cultivation has been central.
And so whether that's redirecting our support towards those institutions and investing uh in our communities or for the folks who have shown up for us if or or if it's you know having conversation about every every commitment and every ticket purchase as you mentioned before every NIL partnership every dollar that's spent uh that we understand carries uh political and economic weight and so you know having those conversations about you whether it's you know it's it's all at a cost. So, how do we uh change that conversation and that narrative around what talent looks like?
We understand and it's no in no way, shape or form taken away from the fact of the win that that athletes won with NI NIL partnerships. But to what cost will we will we uh allow the the disenfranchisement and the and the cancellation of our representation in these states who continue to to to make billions and and millions of dollars uh off of our talent. And I, you know, and I think also about, you know, NCAA and and their and their um their comparison to black athletes as, you know, as as owning them. You know, we have we we got to take ownership back of our talent and uh and and and we understand even in in in civil rights movement. Historically, economic pressure has always been the strongest tool in our movement from bus boycotts to corporate disinvestment campaigns, collective action funds. Uh the the they have forced institutions to respond. uh when morality did not alone.
And so this is an opportunity for us to force the hand of these universities to speak up when it comes to their black students. Universities cannot continue to profit from black talent, celebrate black culture, and recruit black students aggressively while remaining silent when those same students rights and representation and futures are under attack. Uh and so that that this this is a campaign about accountability and totality.
Does the NAACP plan on launching pickets at college uh football games in the fall mean meaning and meaning at those stadiums?
>> I mean, as the strategy continues to develop, we are definitely looking at multiple approaches and working with, you know, our state leaders to see what that approach look like and, you know, how how we will, but there would definitely be further action as it relates to how we show up as the fall continues to roll out as sports. uh and and and you know the schedules continue to roll out and especially as the portal as being open and having conversations with those athletes and and folks in the space um and also getting the the advisement of of of student athletes and and and coaches etc. Uh we're continue to do the work and having those conversations but we are absolutely as as you mentioned um strategizing on ways of how we show up definitely in the fall.
All right then, Talic de McMillan, we really appreciate it. Thanks a lot.
>> No, thank you.
>> Uh, want to bring my pal Dr. Mustafa Santag Leaf former senior advisor for environmental justice at the EPA. Uh, he joins us out of DC. Uh, also, uh, joining us on the panel, Randy Bryant, entrepreneur, author, speaker, and creator of the truthing gang. Dr. Lar J.
Walker, associate professor, University of Central Florida. Glad to have all three of you here. I mean, at at the end of the day, Randy, you got to hit hit them in the pocketbooks. Uh, you know, I I've always said it. I called um Saturdays during college football season DEI Saturdays. Um, I said, you know, these schools, they love to see uh their black talent uh running up and down that football field on basketball court as well, but they damn sure don't give a damn about them in other places.
>> And and they've been very clear about how they feel about us. They have stripped us of our rights. It seems like every day we're hearing of a new way they've stripped us of rights and even these specific colleges that you know in these areas that we're talking about have completely killed their DEI program. So what they're saying is we are not going to protect your children while they're here. We don't care if they have equal access. We don't care if they, you know, have any issues on campus facing racism or sexism. And these kids provide so much to the schools. We have to understand particularly um in the sports like basketball and football that we th those make the most money and they fund the athletic department. So when you are when when little Suzy um or or Jethro is going to college and he's in the on the road team, there are black men and black and women whose bodies are paying for that. they are funding um those scholarships for those kids and the entire athletic programs for those kids and yet they won't protect the kids yet they're telling us that even our votes don't don't matter whatsoever and we have to decide at some point that we must sacrifice I mean I hate that we have to ask this of them but this is where we are in this country right now if you're paying attention and I've seen some people push back and say oh we're asking them to give up too much money the people who are making the money are the schools and they're making it on the backs of our children. Understand that fewer than 2% of our children go to the draft basketball or football once they've pa played at these schools. So this is it.
It's not as if we're, you know, counting them out that they cannot go on for a huge career. Sadly, nine times out of 10, most of them do not go on to a career of professional football and basketball. So, a sacrifice must be made so we can get our power back because it is bigger than sports. It's about power.
>> You know, Mustafa, one of the things that I found to be very interesting and I've listened to these folks, um, oh, we shouldn't be asking this of these young athletes. And I got to remind people that the leadership of SNIK, the leadership that took place during the Black Freedom Movement, these were people who got kicked out of school because they joined. These are people who were 18, 19, and 20 years old. So I I think it sounds ridiculous to say, "Oh my god, the these athletes are too young today when um folks damn sure weren't too young who were on the front lines in the 60s, >> right?"
>> Yeah, without a doubt. And you know, as a former athlete, college former college athlete, you know, my my heroes were people like Harry Edwards over at San Jose State, you know, when he created that program, uh, the Olympic Project program, and he was a really young person at that time. There is, let me just say it this way, there is a laundry list of black athletes, black college athletes over the years, um, who have stood up against racism. Now, the question becomes, do we get behind them?
Do we support them? do we make sure that the mechanisms are in place um if they decide to transfer schools or to go to u you know or to choose another school.
We've just got to make sure that all those pieces um are in place. So yes, throughout our history uh young people have done transformational actions um and have given a lot um but now in this day I think we also have additional tools that we can make sure that are in place to help to make that an easier uh transition. Um, but they're still going to have to, you know, carry the attacks.
You know, if you move from one, uh, school to another, we all know if you're a star athlete or a good athlete that, you know, folks are going to come against you and come out. Um, but we can make sure that we put our arms around them and make sure that they know that the sacrifices that they are making are important and that they're not alone.
>> Well, Larry, the the thing goes, you break this thing down. We have to recognize how many schools we're talking about. I mean, let's just say Texas. Uh, when you think about, you know, this call, you're thinking about Texas, Texas A&M, University of University of Houston, uh, Texas Tech, you're thinking Sam Houston State, you're thinking Charlton State, you're thinking um, um, uh, Texas State. Uh I'm I'm thinking about all these all of these public institutions that have football programs. Um then of course if you start talking about Louisiana, you got LSU and then you got a host of uh of of state schools and then Alabama. So Joe, not just not not just University of Alabama.
Uh and you start going uh Mississippi, Old Miss, Mississippi State, uh other schools. and he's talking about Florida, we're talking Florida, Florida State, Central Florida, Florida International University. I mean, it goes on and on and on. Uh, and so, um, you know, so it it is a number of states being impacted and that's a lot of black athletes we're talking about. I I I think the key here is not that we can expect, Larry, um, the a ton or a ground swell of individuals um, getting into the portal. I think what the real goal here, Larry, is to have several of the top recruits come out and say, "I'm not going to go to those schools. I'm going to go to Big 10 schools. I'm going to go to schools out west." Uh, and that's really what it's really what the goal here is, I think.
>> Yeah. I think Roland, you highlight a really important point. And so we should be really clear for those who are watching when it comes to revenue generating sports in NCAA, black bodies are the ones who generate revenue. Uh whether you talk about we talk about football and basketball, but you know, I watch a lot of college sports and pro sports and you're right, we have got to get some athletes who and many of these students who were, you know, see feel removed from the civil rights movement have to be committed to taking a stand like the ENT4 did, you know, decades ago. And you're right, Romney, it just takes one or two students, top tier athletes, not just to not commit to these schools, but articulate that they're not and the reason why they're not committing to these schools because it's, you know, we we talked about the attacks on the civil rights movement.
And it's impacting these students in their lives. So when you commit to these students, particularly in in these states that we've highlighted, those um that the NAACP has highlighted, these these these states have made it clear where their priorities are. And so if they want black bodies once again going to generate and and leave millions of dollars and build all these you know buildings etc then there has to be not only in terms of when we talk about NIL and the economic impact but politically these students have got to take a standin not only in terms of their lives or lives of their family members but a future generations of black folks who should have the opportunity to um vote without restriction have someone who looks like them if they choose or similar to to represent them in Congress or in the state legislator, House and Senate, but we're not seeing it right now. And we've, you know, black athletes are going to have to take a stand. And if you don't take a stand now, then when will you?
>> But also think, Mustaf, uh, what this really requires, it's really going to require a an an aggressive education effort by the NAACP.
It has to go beyond just a press release and appearing on news shows.
>> Without a doubt, you I mean, you hit the most important point right there. So, everybody's talking about these 17, 18, 19, maybe 20, 21 year old individuals.
the the institutions, our institutions have a responsibility to actually build a strong program in collaboration of course with these athletes and maybe there's other uh athletic organizations who also want to be a part of this to make sure that there's a real structure that's there and it has to be well thought out because I remember watching Major Harris and most folks probably aren't old enough to remember when Major uh was a Heisman candidate >> was doing all this amazing stuff. He used to fight and push back against racism and I remember watching the attacks on him because there was no infrastructure around him. So if the NAACP and others um and I think it's a great thing if they're going to move forward and make sure that you make the right investments and you're making sure that you are in it for the long haul um and making sure that we have this system that's built properly with the tools that are necessary then you're talking about success. We're not talking about just a moment. We're actually talking about to, you know, continue to build a movement. Um, and if you're not going to do that, then you're setting up these young brothers and sisters um in a way that I don't think anyone um at any of the organizations that we all know uh would want to do, but maybe unintentionally do um if they don't make sure that those investments are there.
Look, Randy, you've been in the corporate space and and the reality is we're very quick to say boycott, but boycots require an education phase, a training phase. Uh, and I think that is going to be critically important and also in and in in targeting because when you talk about the athletes, you got to be talking about targeting their parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles.
>> You bring up a really good point. Um, you know, it's particularly the parents.
Uh, you know, I I'm a mother of two sons and I know that we all have great hopes for our children and you know, playing sports has been a way for many of us to make it to different socioeconomic levels and so we all think we all have these hoop dreams um that our children will succeed very greatly. But I think that it's very important to know again how few of our students actually become, you know, stars actually get in the in the NFL or NBA draft that actually go on to make a career out of being in sports.
And so not to make a decision that affects you, your family, and honestly at this point the our our the entire future of of of us as a community because we have these dreams that most likely will not come to fruition. We have to really talk about the facts about how they use us in sports. And they're the ones who have always greatly benefited from the usage of our bodies on the backs of black men particularly is where many white men and institutions have become very rich. And I think that we need to publicize those numbers because they don't try to show us those numbers. They like to show us on the weekends the the the story of the impoverished blackhead who made it out because of his talents. And those stories are beautiful and but they should not we should not fool ourselves into thinking that that is the norm and to recognize that we are being used and there's a reason why they call particularly football teams the you know the the continuation of the plantation.
They need to be aware and and and we assume that people know this, but we know that the United States blocks us from knowing the information that we need to know and they put out there.
We're we're we're um ve great. Our country is great at propaganda and making us think that everybody has a shot. And one thing I always think about too is let me tell you, if your son or daughter are the next, you know, great big player, they're gonna get them.
They're gonna come get them regardless of what school they go to. I promise.
>> Well, I I I think Larry, um, you know, you know, this is really going to uh the onus is not simply on the high school players and the college players. It's also uh on black folks uh who went to PWIS who support them uh the wearing of gear, sending them money, uh buying tickets to the games, all those different things, watching the games, boycotting them with the eyeballs. And again, but it has to really be a a a a wellplanned and executed strategy to have maximum impact.
Absolutely, Roland. And you know, you you you had a guest on, you know, you know, I know he's represent the NAAC youth division and and you pressed him on what's the plan, and I think the end what the NAACP is proposing to do is is is a great idea, but you need a blueprint. And so, you need short and long-term range goals, what's the communication strategy, what's the political strategy. So, you really need to have all that outlined in my opinion.
And I'm assuming that they've done some of this work before you announce something something like this. But I it it really there there's an opportunity for this to make make this work. But like I said, it has to be planned out properly. You talked about, you know, alum not wearing paraphernalia. Um certainly not making donations and not just black folks. We need to call on white folks, but also Roland, I think we need to talk about what the role also black coaches, not just head coaches, but assistant coaches and trainers, etc., what their role also is in in terms of this boycott because you know we're asking for those individuals who work for the employers. We're asking athletes not to attend these institutions. But we have to highlight many of these individuals who recruit these students are black coaches who go out for these predominately white coaches and recruit these black students. But we do have to make sure that whatever the next steps are that that we we've talked about that there's some clearly an educational component that outlines why this matters and the long-term impact. The last point I want to make Ring this I want to talk about what happened in uh 2015 University of Missouri when they had those black students uh called for boycott eventually led to the pre president I think chancellor resigning. It was when black football players got involved in that advocacy work that the that that things began to turn and that they the individuals at alum etc saw what the economic impact is. So, we need black players to take that same mentality from those 2015 University of Missouri football players.
>> Well, it was no different when the Mississippi State football players said, "I'm not going to play ball." Uh, if that Confederate emblem was on that flag, that was on June 20th. June 30th, the governor signed signed a bill into law getting rid of it. So, that thing happened in 10 days cuz them white coaches said, "Man, we ain't going to be able to survive without these black players. They have power as if they use it." Going to go to the break. We'll be right back. Rolling Martin unfiltered on the Blackstone network >> on a next a balanced life with me, Dr. Jackie. A relationship that we have to have. We're often afraid of it and don't like to talk about it. That's right.
We're talking about our relationship with money. And here's the thing, our relationship with money often times determines whether we have it or not.
Balancing your relationship with your pocketbook. That's next on a balanced life with me, Dr. Jackie, here at Blackstar Network.
>> A decade of love, joy, and power. Black Voters Matter is 10 years old and we are just getting started. This is love with a purpose. This is black joy in motion.
This is unstoppable power across campuses, neighborhoods, and back roads.
>> Let's go. We show up not just to vote, but to be seen, to be heard, to belong.
We ride together. We organize together.
We remind each other that our voices matter because they always have.
Black Voters Matter is about more than balance. It's about housing and healthcare, clean water, living wages, education, reproductive freedom, and dignity.
It's about turning pain into action, turning belief into movement, turning community into power. We don't wait to be invited. We bring the energy. We bring the love. We bring the people.
Because when black communities come together, we don't just survive, we thrive.
This is how change happens.
This is how history moves.
We organize, we build, we whip.

I'm Ryan Wilson, CEO, co-founder of The Gathering Spot, and you're watching Roland Martin unfiltered on the Blackar Network.
Baby, hey.
Nat.
Folks, today the Congressional Black Caucus Chair Evette Clark, House Democratic Leader Hakee Jeff, and other members of the Congressional Black Caucus, along with NAACP president Derek J. Jackson expressed their unanimous opposition to the Congressional Score Act. The Score Act would have paved the way for new standards in college sports on matters including revenue sharing and athlete compensation. Black leaders criticized a lack of response from college athletic leadership regarding attacks on black public representation.
They made it clear, oh, you don't stand with us. The hell with the score act.
There were a couple of CBC members who actually signed on as co-sponsors, but they were put put under massive pressure for other CBC members to drop that and they actually did. Here is some of today's news conference.
Yesterday, amid unanimous opposition from the Congressional Black Caucus, the SCORE Act was pulled from the House voting schedule.
>> That's right.
>> We want to be clear, the issue was never simply about one bill. As the CBC made clear in letters to the Southern Southeastern Conference, Atlantic Coast Conference, and the National Collegiate Association, the issue is whether institutions that benefit from black talent, black labor, and black communities are willing to speak out when black political power is under attack. In the wake of the Supreme Court's Cala decision, states across the South have moved rapidly to redraw congressional districts in ways that dilute black voting strength, weaken black representation, and undermine decades of hard-fought civil rights progress secured through the Voting Rights Act. For generations, black athletes have helped build college athletics.
>> That's right. The success, visibility, and cultural influence of major athletic conferences and institutions are inseparable from the talent, labor, leadership, and cultural contributions of black communities. Yet, at this very moment, those same communities are facing coordinated attacks on their democratic representation.
Too many leaders across college athletics have chosen silence.
To be clear, black political representation is not a side issue and this is not politics as usual.
>> In this moment when black representation is under attack in attack, it is important for the CBC to keep in their tradition of being the moral of the Congress but the moral of conscious of this country.
No representation, no revenue, no one black should be on a playing field of institutions that's living off of our labor. And yet in states that that are seeking to reinstitute a sharecropping reality, >> it is not the responsibility of black America to hold individuals who should know better accountable for doing better. As soon as the United States Congress stand united to ensure our Constitution represent all of us, we will be a better nation as a result. 55% of all African-Americans live in the former Confederate South. But the 55% of us who live in the former Confederate South, we would not tolerate a Confederate mentality on our labor, on our ability to contribute, and our ability to be uh to to have representation.
In this moment, our democracy is in crisis. This is not about partisanship.
This is about true representation. And for the NAACP, we will fight with all we have in solidarity with the Congressional Black Caucus to ensure that we have representation or if we don't, we will withhold the talent that that that play on the football field or on the basketball court, be them mid or female. That's right. in this moment.
>> This is an unprecedented moment featuring an unprecedented attack on black political representation and therefore it requires an unprecedented response.
>> That's right. That's right.
>> We are here standing in solidarity with the NAACP and its call for athletes to boycott institutions within the SEC that belong to states that have unleashed these Jim Crow like racially oppressive tactics which is unacceptable, unconscionable.
and unamerican and we believe that the silence of these institutions is complicity >> and we will not stand for it.
>> So let me let me explain to y'all what what these white schools did especially in Alabama. They were putting pressure on and really really going after Congressman Shamari Figures and Congresswoman Matarius Su to sign on to the SCORE Act.
It's like, huh? And the figures did, Su resisted, but then figures backed off.
So what these white schools wanted, Larry, was for the CBC to do their bidding. The score act absolutely is about trying to end or significantly lower the revenue that athletes are getting. This ain't got nothing to do with athletes. These are white folks who are mad at the athletes are getting paid.
Lost Larry. Uh I'll go to Mustafa with that one.
Yeah, exactly what it's about. It is always about economic power, right? They want to make sure that they reap the benefits of these young men and women's um, you know, athletic performance and all the attention that it garers, all the dollars that come with it, all the advertising that comes with it. And it is time. It has been, you know, far too long for young athletes who are giving everything they got. You can go out there on the field, you can blow your ACL out at 19 years old or 20 years old and you know, you might even end up losing your scholarship. Hopefully, schools would at least allow you to continue through with your scholarship, but that would be the end of your revenue generating power as an athlete.
So, yes, young people should be able uh to make as much money as possible.
Hopefully, folks are also counseling them well, so they're making the investments. Um because you know these schools, let's be very honest, many of them don't care because even though you may be one of the most talented people at your respective position, whatever that might be on the basketball court or on the football field, but you also a cog in the machine. Um and if you understand that, then you understand that you have to maximize uh the amount of money you can make in a short amount of time. As Randy said, very few will ever go on to the NFL. So now on the college level, you have the opportunity to maybe change dynamics for your family um and and be able to build a strong foundation. So um I'm glad that the CBC is standing up. I hope that the members who had that pressure on them um will see the light of day if they had not.
But we also have to make sure that we're supporting those members. And that's the thing that people don't understand. If people are going to take these hard positions, you've got they've got to know that you've got their back. That doesn't mean that you don't push them on other issues that you care about, but when they're willing to step out there, we've got to make sure they know they're supported. And the individuals who come after them, they got to know that we're going to check them also economically um because we are no longer going to purchase their products. We're no longer going to support their respective brands, whatever it might be. And that's how you build real economic power is by making sure that you have a holistic strategy of all these various pieces that come together to make the hole. Um, Larry, bottom line is what they wanted, they wanted the CBC to stand and protect these white schools and protect the millions upon millions they earn. And they want to keep that money from the athletes.
>> Absolutely, Roland. And listen, that's saying it's no fun when the rabbit's got the gun. And this new NIL, this new economic model is given more power to particularly black athletes. And these predominately white institutions, PWI's, they don't like it. They want it shifted back into the power of the athletic directors, coaches, etc. You saw Nick Sabin in the last couple months be at the White House multiple times talking about, you know, we need to make changes to the NIL. But these, you know, you can't have members of the CBC when we talk about the impact that many of the what Supreme Court decisions and other laws at the state level have impacted, you know, you know, black political power without making a connection to economic power, particularly like I said, black athletes have far more independence and can make far more money than they did in the past. And so, we need to make sure the economic and political um importance of both of this particular issue become connected or more cohesive. And we once again we have a significant long-term strategy to make sure that everyone can win in the black community.
>> Andy, >> the insidiousness of white supremacy that I think many people miss out on.
It's not just about how much power they want and how much money they want. It's about what they don't want us to have.
They don't want to see these young men, black men, be successful and be in any way compensated for the talents that they've brought. It angers them. So, it's not even as if they're still not making the the major part of this money.
They're still getting paid. They really just can't stand to see black athletes thrive. They literally can't stand it.
And that's the insidiousness of white supremacy. It's it's not just greed for what they want. It really is a a a complete hate for us to have anything, joy, money, etc. >> Oh, yeah. Uh and trust me, it's about them getting paid. So, u and and so you see because of the CBC uh how they responded uh they decided to pull that bill, uh the votes are not there and the votes should not be there. Uh this is about attacking uh athletes and what they're getting paid. So yeah, damn that. Shut it down. Shut it down. Uh and this is no time to cooperate with any of those southern Confederate states at all. Shut them down. Going to a break.
We come back. Uh let's talk about Donald Trump's slush fund. Also, how stupid is the Democratic governor in Colorado?
What an idiot. Letting one of Trump's cronies out of prison uh because he was trying to kiss his ass. I got lots of talk to say about both of those stories.

>> They've been trying to erase black political power since reconstruction.
Now the Supreme Court is helping them finish the job. First came Shelby County versus Holder in 2013. The ruling that gutted the Voting Rights Act. Then came Bernovich in 2021. Another ruling, another piece torn away. Now comes Ka, the case civil rights leaders warned could the last major federal protection against racial vote dilution.
And within days, Tennessee eliminated its only majority black congressional district. Louisiana, South Carolina, Alabama. The same strategy is spreading across the South. The old Jim Crow used pole taxes and literacy tests. The new Jim Crow uses gerrymandered maps, voter role purges, polling place closures, and court rulings that make black communities politically invisible. 1965 was Freedom Summer. This is Freedom Summer 2.0. Because they are still trying to erase black political power, and we will not bow.
I'm Britney Noble, Midwestorn H.B.CU educated with experience in newsrooms across the country. Well, I've teamed up with Roland Martin to bring to you the breakdown. This isn't just news, it's our stories, our voice, our community.
Join me for the breakdown Monday through Friday at midday only on the Blackar Network.
Hi, I'm Swen Cash, basketball hall of famer, and you're watching Blackar Network.
Um, you know, there's nothing like an absolutely despicable, corrupt, pathetic individual like Donald Trump.
This fool decided to sue.
he decided to sue the IRS because his taxes uh got leaked where it showed how he had been cheating frankly and barely paying any taxes. So he sued for $10 billion.
Knew that wasn't going to fly. So then he decides to create this uh compensation fund of 1.776, you know, 1776 um for the people who were um impacted, if you will, um by January 6. You know, the white domestic terrorists uh who sat here sat here and attacked the capital.
Now they call this an anti-w weaponization fund by saying that these people, oh my god, their lives were ruined and it was just rough on them and they had to hire attorneys and all this sort of stuff like this here. Now, of course, Trump is also mad that Marago was searched by the FBI well because he actually had retained documents that he should not have. Then there's a Russian collusion scandal. So when he was asked about this, frankly, it's a slush fund. This is what the twice impeached criminally convicted felon con man-in- chief had to say.
>> The Justice Department has this new fund that was announced today, $1.7 billion.
Why should taxpayers pay for the January?
>> Well, it's been very wellreceived. I have to tell you, I know very little about it. I wasn't involved in in the whole creation of it and uh and the negotiation. But this is uh reimbursing people that were horribly treated.
Horribly treated. It's anti-weaponization. They've been weaponized. They've been in some cases imprisoned wrongly. They paid legal fees that they didn't have. They've gone bankrupt. Their lives have been destroyed. And they turned out to be right. I mean, it's was a terrible period of time in the history of our country. And they worked on it. I know the Justice Department has really been working on it uh very hard. There's been numerous other occasions over the years where things like this have been done, but these were people that were weaponized and really treated brutally by a system that was so corrupt with corrupt people running it and they're getting reimbured for their legal fees and the other things that they had to suffer.
>> Now, check this out. We we attorney general, you know, Todd Blanch, Trump's former personal attorney, to not do any audits or investigations of Trump, his children, their companies, or any other people related.
Excuse me. This is a fund that they can shield from the public. Um, it's a slush fund, pure and simple. And all of these Republicans, oh, quiet.
They're quiet because they don't want to hurt his feelings. They don't want to anger him. They know this is wrong. This is beyond atrocious.
And I dare say, Larry, that and some have already said that the creation of this fund is absolutely grounds for impeachment.
It absolutely is rolling and we need to call this what this is. This money this is a reparations. I'm still waiting for my 40 acres in a mule. So I think that the phrasing we need to we we need to describe it as reparations. Essentially what's going on. So all these years and they telling black folks that they can't get reparations were individuals who are responsible for trying to overthrow the government. They qualify and we know why they qualify. But you're right. You know, look, Rowan, this is just one of every another thing every single day you could use to impeach the president, but this is corrupt. The other thing is for people who are watching this here in America, this is unheard of to see a president in this level, you know, in terms of what you're trying to do in terms of monetarily benefit him and his family. But this is what happens in authoritarian governments. And if you understand world history, this happened consistently. And so now here in the United States, we're we're learning what authoritarians do in terms of, you know, compensating individuals who commit crimes, enriching their families. But once again, this is another example of something illegal that the president is doing. The Republicans are simply turning a blind eye. It was President Obama. It would be a father on fire, and this would be all over the news, and we will hear about it non-stop.
>> Um, not not only that, um, check this out, y'all. Uh, this is unbelievable. So this is the thing they are barring the IRS Randy from any past, present or future investigations.
The United States releases, waves, acquits, and forever discharges each of the plaintiffs from and is hereby forever barred and precluded from prosecuting or pursuing any and all claims, counter claims, causes of action, appeals, or requests for any relief, blah blah blah blah blah.
Are you ser? Like what? So it's like, oh yeah, y'all go right ahead. Y'all can cheat on your taxes for forever. Yeah.
>> That for the rest of his life. No, not just his life. Everyone in his family's lives, they can commit any crime that would be against the IRS and get away with it and will never be investigated.
I mean, when has anybody that you know in this country been protected from being prosecuted should it be needed? I it's it's never happened before. And that these people are so weak that they are allowing this man that much power is absolutely unbelievable. Just when I think I cannot be surprised, I am surprised again, even more. And I I really also want to touch on these reparations that these thugs, these criminals are being given, this $1.7 billion that they're being given. And of course, we've never been touched. I think people will focus on what's happening now. But what they need to understand is what he's setting up for the future. He is sending a message to all of his followers that should you act a fool, commit a crime, try to tear apart democracy, attack a building, attack our leaders in 2028, I will protect you. You will not only have you will not only suffer, you will be well rewarded if you show out like this. I believe he is setting up an army. I really do to fight his these battles as he tries to completely ignore the Constitution.
Folks, uh, Congressman Jim McGovern uh wanted to add an amendment to um to uh stop the slush fund. Republicans refused to even vote for it and would not even allow there to be a debate on it. Listen >> committee add a new section to the rule providing immediate consideration of HR 7711 the no rewards for January 6 riers act.
So this bill would prohibit the use of federal funds to compensate individuals who were prosecuted for their involvement in the attack on the United States capital on January 6, 2021.
Additionally, my motion would self-execute an amendment that would require the attorney general of the United States to disclose any payments made by the so-called anti-weaponization fund, which was created by the corrupt settlement agreement between Donald Trump and his own administration. This secret slush fund should be an outrage to every American, no matter your politics. I would urge a yes vote on my motion, and I yield back.
>> The question is on the amendment. All those in favor signify by saying I.
>> I. Those opposed say no. No. The nos have it. The amendments not agreed to.
>> They love they love the corruption.
Mustafa. They love it. They love it.
They love it.
>> They do love it. I mean, I got a a tax law book over here. I'm going to have to take a peek. Um because uh down the road there's going to there's going to be a time when folks are going to have to be able to defend some of these actions inside of court. You know, the other thing that's really mesmerizing is the fact that we've had these black farmers who have been brutalized, who had to go out and get attorneys, um, and weren't able to be able to receive, uh, any type of help.
So, this $1.7 billion could actually go to them because under former administrations, they did not live up to the letter of the law to make sure that these individuals were protected. Well, I see it's going to be incredibly difficult also when these folks go back home trying to get um reelected and you got folks who can't afford to send their kids to school, folks who can't afford to eat, folks who are dealing with inflation, folks who are dealing with a laundry list of things and you are going to have to be able to justify how you gave your taxpayer dollars, gave their taxpayer dollars away, billions of dollars away. Um so they do love their corruption. They love their corruption because the courts haven't been doing what they're supposed to do because Congress hasn't been doing what it's supposed to do. The question becomes, what will the voters do in the midterms?
>> Well, Larry, the top lawyer at the Treasury Department stepped down moments after this was announced. Uh I I am quite sure those two things are connected.
>> Yeah, absolutely. I don't I don't think that's a coincidence. and and and Roland, we need really, you know, folks working for the Trump administration.
Certainly, we need more people to to take a stand on on this level of corruption because it is he's family, they've built billions of dollars from from the United States government, Treasury, etc., various other ways. And so, we need more people to take a stand and come out publicly and talk about why they're resigning. Not simply resigning, but why they're resigning and the level of corruption they're seeing. But and they have to be prepared for whatever repercussions come with that.
>> Um, and just so we clear, Randy, the thugs that attack the capital, Trump's they're the victims, >> right? They're the victims and the people that were attacked um are the ones who did something wrong. that that is the way he has framed framed this and and and he talks about the way they were treated horribly even though these people were found in a court of law to be guilty of the crimes. But this man has no respect for the justice system except for the one that he's now created and completely running uh to benefit himself.
>> Yeah. Um uh and and then you you'll love you'll love this one. This is the other thing. Uh once the funds are deposited into the designated account, the United States has no liability whatsoever for the protection of safeguarding those funds regardless of bank failure, fraud transfers, or any other fraud or misuse of the funds. So basically, if you if you commit a crime with the funds, it's all good. Uh they we know now that one individual who was molesting his children tried to pay them off by saying, "We're I'm I'm about to get paid. I'll pay you from that." So what we know Mustafa they've been trying to create this fund for the last year and Trump he's full of but I I didn't know anything about it. Yeah you're right.
>> He most definitely knew about it. I'm sure he's been briefed on it numerous times was excited because he thinks it's a part of his get back. Right. Is the get back and the kickback. The kickback is actually the dollars that are there.
One of the things you didn't raise is that there's supposed to also be formal apologies that are also tied to the individuals who will receive these uh uh these funds, these taxpayer dollars. Um so we need to make sure that folks understand that that is also because black folks for all the injustices that we've had to deal with, indigenous folks, brown folks, a whole bunch of folks in this country have never gotten formal apologies uh for many of the uh most egregious things that have gone on.
Um so you got that dynamic. Then as you just stated also, you know, you can use use this however you want to use it. We go back and look at the J6ers. They are a whole bunch of them that have been convicted of all kinds of other crimes as well. So, it'll be interesting to see those who maybe are still in prison, even though I know most of them uh have now gotten out if they also get broken off uh with some of these dollars.
>> Well, here's some reaction to this.
Senator Patty Murray questioning uh acting attorney general Todd Blanch.
Now I would like to recognize the vice chair of the full committee, Senator Murray.
>> Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Acting attorney general, right now families are paying four, five, even six or seven dollars for gas. Inflation is at its highest level in years because of the president's policies. But instead of helping Americans get by, President Trump is literally using their tax dollars to set up a slush fund to enrich his own friends. On Monday, your department settled the president's lawsuit by setting up a fund with $1.8 billion, and you and the president will pick the handful of people who decide how that money gets doled out. So, let's be clear. What we are talking about is nothing short of the sitting president of the United States looting from the treasury for his own gain. Do you seriously think this arrangement is appropriate? The president telling the federal government to settle a case and let him pay billions to the people that he chooses.
>> What you just described wouldn't be appropriate and that's absolutely not what happened and that's not what's happening now. So you just set up a series of facts most of which were not true to say is it no it's not. I mean, >> the president has set up a slush fund, however you want to say that it got set up, and he literally will get to choose through his handpicked appointees who gets paid that fund. That is absurd.
>> The president did not set up set up this fund. It's not a slush fund. It's it's been done many times. We have lots of fun.
>> I heard your response earlier to to Senator Van Holland. This is not comparable to the case that you cited. A judge was not involved. This is the president versus himself setting up a fund. And >> the judge wasn't involved in the distribution in the keep case at all. It just wasn't. There was a single commissioner that was that was set up, not not five. And so when I >> the judge signed off on that case.
>> Yes. It was at a much later point in the litigation.
>> That's my point. That is all of our point. And it just I just have to tell you this is corruption that has never been more blatant or more right spent.
What is happening is you write the check. Trump and his cronies cash it.
American taxpayers who are already being whacked with high prices are going to foot the bill. That's what we are seeing today and that is what many of us are really really angry about.
>> All right. So, uh that was Senator Patty Murray. Then this uh this is uh the uh Republican Senate Majority Leader uh John Thun. When he was asked about this, I got the impression he really didn't want to have to address this. Listen.
The acting attorney general was up here on Capitol Hill testifying where he got a lot of questions about this new $1.8 billion weaponization fund. A short time ago, the Department of Justice laid out some additional terms of this settlement. And in terms of the IRS saying that the IRS is forever barred and precluded from prosecuting or pursuing future examinations of the president. Do you believe this is a legitimate fund? And do you believe those terms are fair? I think that there are and and will be continue to be a lot of questions around that that uh the administration is going to have to answer.
>> Oh, so they're going to have to answer a lot of those things. H okay. All right.
Uh ABC's John Carl uh challenge JD Vance on this very issue at the White House.
Uh and listen to uh this lackey >> eligible to apply for this one. I mean, you're eligible, but I assume you're not going to apply, and you don't think you should get money out of this fund. So, isn't it just as easy to say that people that attacked police officers should not get taxpayer money from this fund?
>> Well, look, John, we're not trying to give money to anybody who attacked a police officer. We're trying to give money, not give money, we're trying to compensate people where the book was thrown at them. They were mistreated by the legal system. Sometimes, you know, we are we do have John in this in this country innocent until proven guilty. We do have people who were accused of attacking law enforcement officers. That does that that that that that doesn't that doesn't mean that we're going to completely ignore some of the claims that they're going to make. We're going to evaluate these things on a case-by case basis. And if we think that some really prosecuted and deserves just compensation, then that's what this fund is going to exist to provide. It's just going to correct a wrong. And I think that's a good thing. And I'd encourage everybody, Democrat, Republican, independent, let's turn the page on this thing that we did under the last administration, where we tried to throw people in prison because they had the wrong politics. Let's throw people in prison who broke the law. I think this fund is a good part of getting justice for the people who were wrongly treated.
I >> I'm not confused. Uh Mustava, many of them were convicted.
They went through the legal system. They were convicted. And in fact, here's what people don't understand about a presidential pardon.
The pardon requires for you to admit you actually did what you what not what you accused of, what you were convicted of, and why you're getting a pardon.
>> They went in front of a jury of their peers. Americans across the country heard the facts, the evidence, and made decisions if someone was guilty or innocent. And in the vast majority of cases, they were found guilty by the jury of their peers. And that's the part that the vice president and others don't want to call out or highlight because it's not like, you know, someone was arbitrarily in some federal agency saying you're guilty and that's the end of it. You literally had to go through the same process that a whole bunch of other folks across our country go through when they are accused of breaking a law. And that's, you know, they just don't want you to use your brain. and they think that they can continue to just pull the wool over people's eyes. They can say whatever they say and the vice president is really good about talking about and we just need to turn the page or we need to just move forward. Um, and no, you know, this is serious stuff. It was serious stuff when folks did it and now it's serious stuff that you want to actually give people uh hard folks hardearned dollars um to compensate them. What are you compensating them for? for beating up police officers, for causing the deaths of police officers, for breaking into federal buildings. If anybody else does those types of things, they're going to go and stand in front of a judge, in front of a jury, and they're going to have to prove their innocence.
And if they don't, then they're going to have to pay the price.
>> Yeah. I mean, it is hilarious uh listening to these fools. Uh here's some of the back and forth between the acting AG uh and Maryland senator Chris Van Holland.
>> Let me go back to this slush fund because there's also an individual who after being pardoned by the president uh went on to molest two children by saying that he would pay them some of the funds that he was hoping to get from your slush fund. Can you commit to making the rule so that that person is not eligible for a payout under this fund?
>> Well, you're obviously lying in your question because there's no way that this person committed to that. But this the slush fund as you call it, which is not didn't exist.
>> But I can commit.
>> Mr. Attorney General, >> don't ever do that again. I am reporting what he said. He set on the expectation that he hoped to get some of the funds from a payout. He's he's been called the slush fund, senator, and that didn't exist when he said that.
>> This is the fund that the president and all of you have been telegraphing all along that you're going to use to help the president's friends.
>> And in fact, they've been negotiating, Randy, for a year to create this. So, uh, nice try, Todd Blanch, but you're lying.
>> Well, and Trump has has said that he was going to get his cronies off. He has said he's isn't like he tried to hide it. He has always said that he was going to take care of them. So there's not a question that that man promised, you know, to some money to those to the families of those children. And let's not act like the Republicans are protective of of of of pedophiles. Let's not act like that they don't have to seem to see some weakness against pedophiles. They've already proven that they don't persecute uh them whatsoever.
So we shouldn't be surprised that that they don't seem to care about that either. This was a wellthoughtout uh plan. Trump has always promised this money. So, of course, like any of us would say, you know, I got a settlement coming. You know, we would say that because they knew they were going to get this money. They've been planning for it. So, to for them to act so surprised now like Trump saying he had no idea it was going to happen. Of course, he did.
He told us it was going to happen. It's been in the works.
>> Absolutely. And so, uh we see what's going on here. So, it's like, y'all, come on now. We ain't crazy.
We ain't crazy. We see what is going on here. All right, let me go to a quick break. We'll be right back. Rolling Martin filtered on the Black Star Network.

Folks, North Carolina Pastor Lauren Livingston lit into Paula White, the woman Donald Trump goes to for so-called spiritual guidance. Man, Livingston did not hold back lightening into her silly ass.
When TD Jake was having these woman thou art loosed conferences, I was appalled at 50, 60, 70, 80,000 women showing up in a coliseum, football stadium, an auditorium, hoping that this man could you could say the magic word, use the magic phrase.
to set them free from all of the the agitation in their life, the emptiness in their life. They filled it up and listened and hoped and longed for.
I estimated in my own mind, you know, you you include a a plane ticket to wherever and then you got to get hotel rooms and then you got to eat.
Hey, no place that has a convention has cheap food.
And then you have to register to get to it. Before you walk through the door, you got to lay down hundreds.
And then when you get in there, and this is for all these people. Sorry.
When you get in there, you hear some stuff. And then you got to give an offering. You got to give a seed offering. So the what you heard works.
What you heard won't work until you give an offering.
Hey, that enliven it. That resurrects what you heard. So then you give an offering and before you know it, you've spent thousands of dollars to go hear a man say something that makes no sense.
It didn't come out of here either. I heard it.
And And so I ask you, if you went, if you're watching me online and you went, did you get loosed?
Did it work?
Did you buy your deliverance?
If you did, why'd you go back next year and the next year? And why did you buy all the books so you could read them and mark them up? Folks, this is a scam.
And it goes on every week in this country by some big time mega something or another, somebody man or woman. By the way, TD Jake had as his sidekick little lady called Paula White, Pastor Paula White, who I heard personally say, "God told me to tell somebody, you're going to give a $100,000 today and your family will be saved."
Or that's the same one that was preaching and said, "Yeah, I I'm going to lay hands on you, but I won't lay hands on you till you lay an offering right here on the altar."
Right?
What is that? That's a false prophetist.
That's a self-appointed prophetist who is a heretic and a blasphemer.
The things I've heard her say about Jesus Christ is blasphemy.
The things I've heard TD Jake say and not say is heresy and blasphemy.
And that you Why'd you pick them out?
Cuz I don't have time to pick out a hundred more.
Oh, by the way, Paula White is the woman that the president appointed to be his faith advisor.
She has an office in the White House.
She's available to the president to give him advice on faith to keep him apprised of the evangelical temperature.
She is there and I heard her say, "Let me tell you, preach trying to preach like a black woman and she's in an totally inappropriate clo clothing with spike heels.
Everywhere I put my foot on the White House loan is holy ground.
I'm She cannot tell the truth. Whatever the president heard from her is a lie.
He needs help and he needs it bad and he needs it now, but he won't get it from her.
So, here are a couple of the bites that he was referring to. Let's first deal with the $100,000. watch >> because I'm telling you, there's a there's an anointing of release right now. I want $100,000 to come in. I want $100,000. There people there are 10 people that could give $10,000. There's a hundred people that could give $1,000.
Get a check, make it payable to Paula White Ministry. There are people that are watching right now. If you say, "I don't have it." Give $100. Bring up a sacrificial seed. This isn't for me.
This is about kids that will die without you being obedient. This is about kids who are going to be mistrals and instruments and warriors and mighty for God. This is about kids who going to make a difference. I'm not going to take everybody's blessing. Come on. I'm going to tell you, get a seed of sacrifice.
There's only three envelopes. I'm not moving. I'm not going to lay hands on people till you're obedient. Get out of your seat. Come on. And come bring up a seed.
>> Does the law >> Oh, ain't that something? Ain't that something? Okay. Now uh remember he said about uh walking on uh when she at the White House and oh it's like well wherever I walk God is walking. Listen >> where >> I go God rules.
When I walk on White House grounds, God walks on White House grounds. I had every right and authority to declare the White House as holy ground because I was standing there and where I stand is holy.
to say no to President Trump would be saying no to God. And there and I won't do that.
>> We are in a spiritual war right now. Let every demonic network that has aligned itself against the purpose, against the calling of President Trump, let it be broken. Let it be torn down in the name of Jesus. You want me to tell you what my thoughts are? The thoughts of the King of Kings, the thoughts of the Lord of Lords. I'm downloading heaven.
Now you know she talk in tongues. Don Trump bar like what the hell is she talking about? Cuz y'all know that man ain't even uh real as well. Not even real as well. Then then you got him.
Then you also got that uh that ignorant fool Lorenzo White. Lorenzo Su. That's that crazy uh ignorant uh black preacher out of Detroit. Uh listen to what this fool said at that white nationalist gathering over the weekend called Rededicate 250.
>> Lorenzo, a lot of people say that the church and politics should be separate.
But there's an overlay in a lot of that.
What would you tell people?
>> Well, Jesus was a politician. Jesus was crucified for a political term. You're no friend of Caesar. Jesus on his on his crucifix, it said that he was He was a king. Right? So, we're a country whereby our founding fathers understood we can't be a country that has a civil law without a moral law. They knew one was able to inform the other. They would have never had this false dichotomy of the church and the state. They would have said, "No, the church needs to be leading state."
>> He doesn't believe in uh he want this church and state. But so so when you're Trump and you're being led by these idiots, well, it's no shock that that's the kind of stuff uh that that that you would hear. Uh and so just a little bit more batshit crazy Paula White. Uh this is the video that she had them play at Rededicate 250. Uh again, uh if you want to um see Pastor Botox, check it out.
America has faced moments when the soul of this nation was tested. The abolition movement did not rise from politics alone. It emerged in the wake of the second great awakening. A spiritual revival that swept across our nation and called America back to God, to repentance, and to the truth that every human being is created in his image.
from churches, prayer gatherings, and camp meetings, a moral conviction began to awaken in the conscious of the nation. And many of the voices God used were women. Women of faith who prayed, taught, organized, wrote, marched, and courageously stood against the evil of slavery when silence would have been easier. They understood that faith was not meant to remain within the church walls, but to shape the moral character of a nation.
Courageous believers, men and women alike, were compelled by scripture and conscience to stand for righteousness, even at great personal cost. Abraham Lincoln would later call America to a new birth of freedom. But Lincoln understood true freedom cannot survive apart from moral truth and dependence upon Almighty God.
Today, as we approach America's 250th anniversary, we are reminded that every generation must decide what it will honor, what it will defend, and under whose authority it will live.
>> All right. I I came to listen to the rest of that book. That that nonsense. I mean, come on. Um uh absolute fraudulent. She's fraud. Donald Trump is a fraud. And and we all know uh you know, two Corinthians himself, Mustafa, uh is just a joke.
>> I'm just always amazed how these people play with God. It's just it blows my mind. But then I guess if you don't truly believe that God exists, then it's a lot easier to be able to do and say some of these things that these folks continue to and lead people astray. My auntie want is always saying, she's like, "Be careful. Be careful where you uh invite the devil into your house."
She said, "Evil rarely arrives screaming. Sometimes it walks in smiling uh calling it self-comfort." And when I see these people doing the things that they're doing and saying the things that they're saying, it reminded me um of those words because that they fool people, right? Folks want hope. Folks want some stability um and and they play on this. And you know, so you just got to be very very very careful. I mean whether you you know you read the Torah or the Bible or the Quran, it speaks to us about these false idols and these false individuals who will try and take you astray. So whoever you pray to and whatever book you might read, I think you just need to open it up again and then ask yourself with all the things that you see going on in this country today, does it align with you the traditional values of who you pray to and the words that they shared?
And if you want to hear bat, you know what? Crazy Randy, listen to this fool. Religion, if you look, it was built. So, and when you have strong religion, you have less crime. It's just a fact. You know, whatever it may be, it's like, gee, I want to go to heaven, so I'm not going to do this or that. Who knows? But we have a country that was based on religion and Is the felon How is the felon going to talk to us about religion? That that's the part that's hilarious. He is the head criminal in charge. So, how is he going to talk to us about religion? And you know, it's funny you bring up uh uh the lady before I just heard her name just slipped me. You know what her education is? She's never been to a school of divinity. That woman has never led a Sunday school. Do you hear me? She is just she has a business where she uses to pedal religion and God. She has a business. She started enterprises. She started writing books. But before then, she had never been to a school of divinity. She's never led a Sunday school class. She is a hustler. Period.
And so she and Trump are one and the same.
But the audacity of that man to talk about religion and crime goes down. And he's a criminal. A convicted criminal.
It's it's it I I I can't get over it. I I literally just can't get over the hypocrisy.
>> Uh it's Larry. Go ahead.
So, you know, Rowan, to Ry's point, it reminded me of the song, uh, you know, Rick Ross, every day I'm hustling because that's that's basically what we're dealing with. The other thing is you cannot pray to the God of capitalism. And this is really what is at the root of this is the intersection of capitalism and white nationalism. And so we need to really be clear about about what's happening and the contradictions about talking about God while the same individuals had multiple marriages um cheat on multiple wives and have multiple children and lie lies consistently. And then those other individuals who use capitalism as a as a as a sword um to to convince people money to these individuals so they can line their pockets. And so that is not consistent with with Christianity or any other major religion in our society. But once again, this is individuals using the Bible as as a way to line their pockets and you know the reminder some of those folks that we one individual we we saw recently likes goldplated uh things in their bathroom right so and not only in terms of th those kinds of you know things but also like I said lining their pockets but once again you cannot pray to the god of capitalism because it's inconsistent with with Christian values. All right, folks. Uh, it's always good to see racist called out. Well, two Texas activists went off on this white man who um was censured after he used the n-word numerous times during a trial.
Now, this was taking place while arguing outside the pre presence of a jury.
Michael Phillips, a Brazoria County attorney, allegedly made the statements on May 5th during a jury trial involving a family custody modification case involving black female attorney Brenda Darun.
Some of the statements seem to be directed at her. Well, let's just say when Quadell X and Dr. Candace Matthews rolled up on Phillips, they had a lot to say.
>> Oh, here we go. So, Mr. Mr. right here. Yeah, that's your ass.
So you the one like you the one like call people call you call that >> I bet you I bet you won't call it in front of a black man like that.
>> I bet you won't call me Let me help you. You call a black woman the n word. Call me that.
>> No call me that.
>> I dare you to do it and I swear for God I'll make you taste the ancestors.
>> Me too.
>> You a coward. Call that black woman the n word. You a real coward. Catch you inside. Go ahead. Go right ahead. I I guarantee you won't do it in front of me.
>> Come on. Come on.
>> I know. Matter of fact, I know you won't say the n word in front of me.
>> Come on, go on and out.
>> And I guess you'll taste everything for the master.
>> Say it in front of me. I dare you to say it.
>> What is your name?
>> It's Quell X. But you'll learn it real well today.
>> Yeah.
>> Say it. I bet you won't say a word in my face.
>> See, you talk to black women like that by themselves.
>> You intimidate black women by themselves. But a black man, you going to open your goddamn mouth.
>> I dare you to say it.
>> Mhm.
>> With that hearing aid.
>> I dare you to say it. Mhm. With that hearing aid in your ears. Yeah. Get your old ass in there. Run around here with your bald head ass. You old spotty little face looking But I ain't playing with you.
>> Sir, would you like to make a comment about what you said or what happened?
>> I'm not allowed to make a comment at the present time.
>> So, as making a statement online or anything like that, >> who are you?
>> Will you witness? What happened? There is a public statement online that is circulating and what I will say is I thank everyone for their support in coming today. My goal has been and always remains protecting my client's rights and advocating for those rights.
I believe that the court should be a place of decency, respect and integrity and I am glad that everyone here today believes in those values and are standing in solidarity with those values. Thank you.
>> Took it upon himself to be a bully to intended a black female in the courtroom. But when a black man got in his face, he cowed up, cowed down, and he could not hear rat piss on cotton. At the end of the day, this man's a coward.
And we're not going to tolerate anyone bullying black females, using the n-word and think he can intimidate him and frighten them. And those sisters don't have backup. No, we will rise to the occasion and send that bigot a clear crystal message. Hands off of black females. We're not going to tolerate that. Mhm. And then and one other thing in regards to by us being here in Brazoria County, Brazoria County is a majority minority county now. So those times of lynching, those times of racist behavior, especially how so comfortable that he was in that courtroom is over.
We would no longer tolerate it and we will rise to the occasion and we will expose it and we will shut you down.
M cat got his tongue. Randy, >> when I tell you I watched that video about eight times this morning. Started my day off so lovely. I'mma make you taste the ancestors. I'mma make you taste the ancestors. That's classic.
That's classic. And did you see him turn as red as his tie?
Yeah, I I yeah, I en I thoroughly enjoyed that. I needed some of that relief after what we've been going through lately. Thank you so much to them. Thank you so much, >> Larry.
>> He didn't He didn't want any smoke. Huh, Roland?
>> Nope.
>> Once he got this, he didn't he didn't want any smoke. You know, listen, I'm forget all academic stuff. I'm from Philly. I love this kind of energy. We need to bottle that up. We need to sell it to black communities for the next couple of years so we can just black folks can just open it up when they need to so we can let folks know that if you want this kind of energy we going to match it and go beyond that. And you know, the bottom line is in the society a lot of times the kind of energy and and many times the violence verbal or physical that black folks have had to encounter, when we respond in kind, people cower in the corner. And this is another example.
>> Mustava, I just I'm just excited watching Larry get fired up, you know. Uh I mean, I was raised with individuals like Brother X.
So when I see that, you know, it just reminds me of the responsibility that we have uh as black men uh to make sure that we are protecting our community and protecting our women. I also love the fact that black folks not going for the okey do anymore. If you want to get about it, we'll get about it. Um the other part of it is is that you know even though I don't know what exactly happened inside the court uh in relationship to what the judge did with this individual but I do understand that the associations have a responsibility that you can literally have your law license taken away. Um if you have some serious um you know things that go down.
So folks should be looking at that. Also I'm sure he's been practicing for a long time. Maybe it's time now for him to take a rest um and figure out that he's in 2026 and not 1946.
Well, um all I got to say is um when y'all decide to be racist and y'all decide to I'm just keep telling y'all all you maggots, uh don't let Trump get your ass whooped.
Right.
>> See, I I I I know that that that racist uh decided to hop his ass up in the White House and y'all like, "Oh, we can go ahead and just say we really think, okay, team whip that ass going to be showing up."
I'm just letting y'all know. Hashteen whip that ass will be making frequent appearances across the country. In fact, team whip that ass might look like they on tour if y'all keep it up. It's time for Black Star Network headlines of Britney Noble.
The body of a black teen who had been missing for 5 days in Alabama has been found shot and Decembered. The family of 18-year-old Marcavius Rump last saw him on May 7th after he left his grandmother's home in Eupola with a friend. His family reported him missing when he did not return. And they began searching local wooded areas for him.
And the search lasted for nearly a week before ending Monday, May 11th, when Maravius's remains were found December, set on fire and with bullet wounds.
Police have identified suspects for the murder. But no one has been charged or brought into custody. Now, the teen's parents are seeking justice for their son and accountability from law enforcement, who they say did not help with the search. And a black mother's secret recording has raised allegations of abuse at an elementary school in Louisville, Kentucky. Tiffany Lee discovered that her son Samage was allegedly being mistreated by his teacher at Field Elementary School.
After noticing weeks of unexplained behavior issues, she decided to use a hidden camera disguised in her child's ponytail. The recording appears to show an assistant teacher aggressively yelling at the child who is severely autistic and non-verbal. While the hidden camera does not clearly capture the visual details of the interaction, the audio clearly reveals the teacher yelling. School staff discovered the hidden camera and alerted the principal and as a result, the student was sent home for the rest of the day. And school officials say they are still reviewing the incident with the school district.
And a school district in Tennessee has banned Alex Haley's book Roots due to a specific paragraph. This decision adds to a growing list of 119 books banned over the past two years. According to a spokesperson for Knox County School Board, the removal of roots was not due to its historical themes, which recount the story of Haley's ancestors, including the enslaved Kouti Kente and his descendants, after they arrived in the United States, but instead the ban was based on chapter 84 of the book, where a particular passage was deemed sedic. School leaders in Tennessee's 2022 age appropriate materials act is cited as a reason for their decision to remove the book. Although Roots has been banned from library shelves, the committee's ruling still allows for material from the book to be taught in the class. And the Trump administration is proposing to increase the refugee admission ceiling for the fiscal year 2026 to 17,500 specifically for white South Africans. That's according to an emergency determination sent to Congress and obtained by CNN. In 2025, the administration reduced the number of refugees allowed to enter the country annually to 7,500. focusing on white South Africans. This was a significant decrease from the previous year ceiling of 125,000 which excluded some of the world's most vulnerable populations. Trump justifies the decision to resettle Africaners in the US by making claims that a genocide is taking place in South Africa, stating that white farmers are being brutally killed in their land confiscated.
However, South African authorities have strongly denied these claims. The Trump administration is rolling back key Biden era protections, focusing at limiting dangerous forever chemicals in the nation's drinking water. The Environmental Protection Agency will rescend and restart regulations on several PIFAs chemicals linked to cancer, hormone disruption, liver damage, fertility issues, and weakened immune systems. Pifas, short for Purr and polyfloric substances, have been used for all the way since the 1940s in products, and the chemicals do not break down easily. they can remain in the water, soil, and human body for decades.
The EPA says the Biden administration failed to follow proper legal procedures when it comes to creating the rules.
Restrictions on two of the most studied PIFAs and PIFO PIFAs will remain in place. However, water systems can now request additional time to comply, extending some deadlines from 2029 to 2031. The decision could leave millions of Americans exposed to contaminated drinking water for years longer, much longer than expected.
>> All right, Britney, folks, be sure to catch out catch the breakdown of Britney Noble every day noon Eastern right here on the Blackar Network. The breakdown Britney Noble everyday noon Eastern on the Blackar Network. Going to a quick break. We come back our shop Blackar Network Marketplace segment. Back in a moment.
They've been trying to erase black political power since reconstruction.
Now the Supreme Court is helping them finish the job. First came Shelby County versus Holder in 2013. The ruling that gutted the Voting Rights Act. Then came Bernovich in 2021. Another ruling, another piece torn away. Now comes Cal, the case civil rights leaders warn could the last major federal protection against racial vote delusion.
And within days, Tennessee eliminated its only majority black congressional district. Louisiana, South Carolina, Alabama, the same strategy is spreading across the South. The old Jim Crow used pole taxes and literacy tests. The new Jim Crow uses gerrymandered maps, voter role purges, polling place closures, and court rulings that make black communities politically invisible. 1965 was Freedom Summer. This is Freedom Summer 2.0 because they are still trying to erase black political power. And we will not bow.
I'm Mark Moral, president, CEO of the National Urban League, and I'm watching the Blackar Network.
All right. Have you ever craved something sweet but weren't quite sure what you wanted? Well, Brick City Candy has a delightful selection just for you.
They offer unique assortment of artal candles that blend classic flavors with a modern twist, all crafted by hand in small batches. Joining me now, Janelle Hudson, founder of the Pyramid House Foundation. Janelle, glad to have you here. Okay, so walk us through. So, I'm sitting here uh and I see uh Apple Jacks. I see grape. I've got here uh what's this here? Uh this is called Candy with a Purpose. This is a watermelon. Got watermelon right here.
And then let's see. Candy with a Purpose. Got cherry right here. here.
And then what's over here? Uh, I've got oops, something just failed. Tangerine.
Tangerine over here. Uh, so h, so how did you come around to creating this?
>> So Brick City Candy is a social enterprise workforce development program of Pyramid House Foundation. And Pyramid House Foundation is a shared housing provider and we have a re-entry program.
So, we started with housing and then quickly found out that we needed to do more to be able to um support our individuals returning from incarceration to give them purpose to foster healing and then also to give them obviously um a way to develop workforce development, workforce skills so that they can then go into the community and um live their lives productively. So, um, so they're the ones making the candy.
>> Yes, they are.
>> Okay. Uh, and and where where is, uh, and where is this based?
>> So, Brick City is the nickname for Newark, New Jersey. And the young people that work for Brick City Candy are predominantly from Newark. Um, we work out of a commercial kitchen in Orange, New Jersey.
So, so was it was this about teaching them how to make the candy, the packaging, all the marketing, all those things?
>> All of all of it. Yeah. It it's it's really when an individual, particularly a young person comes from prison, there's a time, you know, period that has been lost and um life continues.
Life goes on. So if they're incarcerated for two years, six years, however long they're incarcerated for, um if they're adult parrolled, there are even more challenges that they're facing. So as soon as they come out and they're placed with us, we then give them a safe environment for them to be able to um develop skills that they one lack. they missed a large chunk of time um in developing the normal skills that an adolescent into adult would would develop. And also to give them a safe place to do that to figure out what kind of transferable skills they may have because making candy is the same process as with different ingredients as making drugs.
Um, so some may have been in that industry and so it's a it's an easy transition. And then also it's it's a supportive environment for them to be able to develop those skills and feel safe. If a young person comes out directly out of prison and goes into let's say a Costco to work or a Target or wherever, they're not among they're not in a safe place to be able to develop the skills.
So working for Brick City Candy for the period that they're with us, they're able to comfortably develop the skills that they need to then launch and um you know go about their lives.
>> Questions from the panel. Let's see.
Larry, you first.
>> Yeah. Um thank you for for all your work and I guess my question uh deals with you know some of the challenges you mentioned coming out uh for you know returning citizens the the challenges they encounter. some end up back in incarcerated. So what are your overall rates in terms of your success rates in terms of keeping individuals >> back at home with their families uh you know developing workforce skills going to college etc. >> Yeah. So I would say it's a higher success rate for the older population but for the under 30s the recidiv recetivism rate is much um higher. So the success rate is is you have a better chance when they're older. Um for the under 30s, there's a lot more that needs to go into it. And I actually call the process the extraction from that life.
Um and to give them direction. A one thing that really needs to happen and happen in a big way is healing past traumas. So, I was lucky enough to um develop a find my tribe of people who do this kind of work and can support the work that we're doing and um supplement it with healing. So, we partner with a group called Inside Circle um out of California that runs healing circles and we have our young people participate in the healing circles here in New Jersey.
They they also offer it here in New Jersey. Um, and the purpose, the purpose is, you know, having some way to be able to contribute and change the dynamic of what they previously did before incarceration, to start to see the community, to start to um express creativity because there's something very healing when you are being creative and and then to set themselves on their path. So, I wouldn't really measure success for the under 30 population as um not going back because there there's so many factors that play into why they may end up back in either jail or prison. There's parole violations. Um there there's so many things that that take place that contribute to that. So, I hope I answered your question, >> Randy.
>> I I love what you're doing. And I know that help is a challenge to get people back um in the workforce or reenter society. Is there a training program because I know the point is not just making candy but the point is to prepare them >> uh to function in society. So is there also like a training program that teaches them even how to fill out an application, how to have an interview um and things like that or right now you're just focusing on >> Yeah, absolutely. So it's 20 weeks that we work with the young person. We have a partnership with the state of New Jersey, the youth justice um commission, and we train them on interviewing skills, resume writing and development, um um how to just be in the workplace, being on time, all of the things that are required to successfully hold a job.
We're taking them back and showing them how to do that in again in a safe place where they feel comfortable and they're not feeling like I can't I can't do this in this un this strange environment like throwing someone right into the workforce that's never been in the workforce. I don't think that that's you know a really good setup for success.
>> Mustafa and just one >> I'm sorry Randy. Go ahead. Go ahead. Go.
>> I just was gonna ask your favorite flavor of the candy. Oh. Um, so chili pa is um pineapple flavor with uh taheen seasoning. So like it's a little chili salt and sweet and salty and um banana pudding are my favorites.
>> Okay. Thank you.
>> Uh Mustafa.
>> Yeah. Well, thank you for the transformational work that you're doing.
I'm curious um any of the folks who went through this program, have they gone on to start their own programs or create their own businesses? What does that look like?
>> So, actually the two my two co-founders, their role is we're not a huge program, right? So, let me say that. Um the idea is that they are credible messengers so that they can go back and pull others in and pull them off the street. So, um, one of the co-founders, he's actually starting a trucking business. Um, and in our program, in our developing of Brick City Candy, he learned the steps on how to become an entrepreneur, how to get your LLC, how to do all the things needed to actually start a legitimate business. So, um, and the other is, you know, they're doing speaking engagements, um, across the country because our partner, another partner of ours, the NE Casey Foundation, um, has a really robust, um, investment in community partners that are doing the work for the emerging adults or the under 30s who have been just as involved in system impacted.
Mustafa I'm sorry. Um, all right. So, actually, okay. So, to make sure everybody, so everybody got the questions in. Uh, la last question I have for you. Uh, in terms of So, when did y'all first start moving product?
>> Oh, we launched in June of 2024.
>> All right, then. Well, look, uh, so couple of years uh old next month. Uh, folks, uh, do me a favor. Uh again, Brick City Candy, y'all see it. Brick City Candy.
