The Remix Morning Show hosts criticize the NAACP and Congressional Black Caucus for failing to protect voting rights and support Black communities during the Trump administration, arguing that these organizations have abandoned their revolutionary responsibility by becoming part of the neoliberal system and taking checks for being figureheads rather than actively fighting for Black liberation.

No problem. You know >> yeah, I was out this weekend.
Um uh Palestinian uh Palestinian uh commemorate Nakba Day. Uh the day of that the Nakba started, but the persecution against Palestine was going on for um you know, nearly a hundred years. So, it's been 75 78 years since the Nakba, but really um the conquest of Palestine has been a 100-plus year um um endeavor. And yep, I was outside.
Here I am at the US Capitol. Mhm. Uh where uh Palestinian Youth Movement and other organizations held the Nakba Day uh a rally.
Uh this is the the good comrade Rashid uh with uh the AAPRP.
Uh And that. And I spoke and we were out um um handing out flyers for the North-South uh uh People's Center Human Rights Project and the Anti-Fascist Football Clubs campaign to move the games and boycott the US uh kick the US and Israel out of uh the IOC and uh FIFA. So, yes, twas outside this week.
>> Okay. Jacqueline, did you Did you cross paths with the red hat, white hood MAGA Brigade? Weren't they out there this weekend?
Oh, that was Sunday. That was that stupid little prayer I I didn't even know about that until after the fact. Sunday morning. And I'm like, they doing what?
Yeah.
That That was the thumbnail for yesterday. I was like, wow, they praying to the >> [laughter] >> their god. It just It just I found a clip of that you might find interesting Jackie. Maybe we'll get to it. But some white pastor, he's probably very well known. He was reading Paula White for filth.
>> [laughter] >> I was like I had a Uh okay. Are we seeing a tide shift here? But anyway, I'll I'll I'll like to present that to you later on in the program.
Yeah, this is interesting times. Oh, speaking about organizing and stuff like that. You know, for today's uh thumbnail you know, they got the Waffle House people that work there, the employees that's trying to get a $25 uh get their money up to $25 an hour. Is that something that organizers and activists come and stand behind or do they be like, you know what, there's other things to deal with. Let's let them handle that.
I'm just a question.
Cuz I mean, what do you pick and choose as in you you you get behind?
If you are an anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist organizer then yeah, you would get behind that because this is this this fight is the working class against the ruling class. So, the working class fighting for labor rights, better working conditions, better wages, uh uh benefits, yeah, anything the workers are fighting for, we support it.
Um we support working class movements not just here in this country, but around the world. I mean, we just had our people and I I got a um um trying to get folks together to get on here and talk about just had our folks in Kenya.
Before before the general strike happened, our folks were in Kenya supporting the the the the workers movements in Kenya through the Kenyan Communist Party and they were brutally attacked by the police in Kenya. Now people are safe and and all of the people that were arrested in Kenya at that demonstration have now been released but like the very next day cuz cuz the the place was a powder keg anyway because of the Kenyan government's fuckery. Mhm.
But but after the Kenyan government represses these these these folks these you know the the people throws them in jail for a demonstration then the the organized masses and the rest of the people take to the streets and now there's there's a general strike brewing in Kenya. Mhm. We support the the general strike that is going on in Bolivia.
You know that that is we support that that is working class poor peasant people protecting their sovereignty and their their their leader. You know we we support working class struggle if you are an anti-imperialist anti-capitalist organizer and you understand class struggle yeah working class struggle is what you get behind and and it's kind of like faith right a little bit.
There's no picking and choosing.
[clears throat] Mhm. There's no I know people do pick and choose.
>> Yeah yeah yeah.
I know they do but if working class people are engaged in a struggle for something that is better more democratic more beneficial for everyone we get behind that but we are clear that there are there have been co-optations of working class movements by the right wing.
So you have to be careful cuz you got a bunch of folks who are like, "Oh, working class people, this is why we hate immigrants." That kind of crap. We don't know.
Do your research, yo.
Right. That's good to know. Big up to If you ever want to see a good drunk fight on a Saturday night, Waffle House.
Wait a minute. How we I was just thinking about the Waffle House. When I think about Waffle House, I don't really eat there, but I always know it's a It's a good experience on a Saturday late Saturday night. It's always something.
It's a mysterious place, the Waffle House.
>> [laughter] >> Mysterious.
You never know what you going to get at the Waffle House on a late night with all the drunks that go in there.
>> [laughter] >> Truck drivers.
Hey, hey, why you disparaging truck drivers? Hey.

They are out of Texas and they show up and they will and they will put these motherfucking crackers in the dice, okay? LIKE THEY DON'T PLAY when it comes to black people. Shout out to Quanell X and Dr. Candace Matthews. Huge fan. Huge fan. From the East Coast. Love them to Listen, Jackie, you if you tapped into what they you would appreciate it. Like There was there was a one instance I covered this on my show but there was a black family living in a white neighborhood. They were being threatened by a white neighbor who was hanging nooses and threatening the kids and shit. And Quanell and Dr. Candace showed up and they was like, "No, we we What did they say? We will give you Texas justice out here. You will be 6 ft under the ground."
>> [laughter] >> DON'T PLAY WITH THEM CUZ I BELIEVE THEM.
I believe them, yo. Cuz I think they out there fighting right now in in Texas against the police brutality or something. They fight [clears throat] against all kinds of stuff. Like Dr. Candace [laughter] runs up on slum lords, like they run up they run up, okay? They Dr. Candace and Quannell, they pulled up on the school board. Uh there were there were some I see them dealing with every kind of issue that impacts black folks. Are they out of Houston, everybody? Are they out of Dallas? I I can't remember. What is it Houston? Cuz I think Dr. Candace be out here screaming Port Arthur, Texas.
So, shout out to to H-Town. Dr. Candace and Quannell Yes, Ear Doctor, yes. But, Ear Doctor, is that >> the butt? Where's the butt at?
>> No, is it but is that a regular occurrence? Do you see that I see it on occasion online, of course, when we're talking about >> you know, they show some they show some stuff more than they show others. Let's just say. Well, maybe some other stuff happens more than other stuff.
>> [laughter] >> Maybe that happens more than, you know, protection. But, I'm glad to see it happening at all. Yeah, let's just say I'm I'm down with that.
>> [snorts] >> I I I I have look, I I wish I wish that that there was more of this of this kind of stuff.
And and you know, look, it they're always always contradictions, always. Um you know, because it in the in the organizing community, I guess some folks have that they don't really they don't really deal with them, I guess. I'm not sure, but but that more of that. Please, more more of it. Cuz where was it in um uh uh uh Cory Booker.
Uh at at at a campaign rally in New Jersey. He No, yeah, he got called out.
Mhm. And and and a young brother just It was a young a young brother just asked him a question like, "Hey, are you going to continue to take money from AIPAC?
You going to" Of course, Cory had that young man kicked out Yeah. his rally.
But then in in in San Diego where the the massacre happened at the mosque and the mayor I think it was it the mayor of the town?
>> the mayor. Who was doing a press conference and he was and the mayor is a Democrat.
All right? Uh I I think so so then doing before he could even say good afternoon at the mic, a lady that you don't see off camera gave that man the blues. I mean she was like this is your fucking fault because you enabled all of this Zionist rhetoric and the blood is on your hands and all he could do was stand there.
>> In there.
I thought I was waiting for him to cry but he didn't.
>> [laughter] >> So I all all I am for hunt them down.
Listen, especially now if people going to be on bullshit They going to get no peace No peace if you out here on bullshit, period.
What one of them was confronted uh at some um I guess a some I don't know affair or whatever carnival with his kids and he gets approached by by you know a journalist and he's like and the journalist is like hey what what why are you still supporting genocide and what the heck is going on with Iran and why would you support this and what about all the children who killed and this man was like oh please don't do this in front of my children.
That was Anthony Blinken.
That was Anthony Blinken. That happened in McLean. That happened right out here.
Mhm and I'm like oh oh you want you don't want your children to hear about the fact that you support murdering other children. Is that what you cuz see that would have been me.
Oh we can't do this in front of your children but you didn't have a problem supporting the bombing of of Palestinian children, Syrian children, Iranian children. Oh, we can't do this in front of your kids? What's so special about your kids that they get to live with all those other people's kids? Cuz see, that's the way we need to start talking to these people. Wherever they are. And stop begging and pleading. Why do you support? How do you do? Uh no, you confront them with what they have done.
That that's what [clears throat] it is.
It's It's not It's not trying to raise their consciousness and trying to get them to see what they're doing wrong.
They They know what they're doing. Mhm.
Hey.
>> Stop that. In that same vein, uh Drake called out DJ Khaled on his new album said, "When you going to talk about free Palestine?"
>> [laughter] >> Drake, I'm sorry. Nigga, shut up.
I said I'm saying I I mean, I don't want to hear from the pedophile about THE GENOCIDE DENIER.

>> [laughter] >> Oh my God. It's it's It's it's giving apocalypse.
Absolutely.
And an apocalypse really just means, you know, the great revealing. It doesn't it doesn't actually mean the end of anything.
It just means the great revealing and Don't you see now Excuse me. what this place has always been? Do Do you really think that like I'm I'm so I'm still so kind of like Oh, so y'all think y'all still think all of this is just Trump. Wow, that's That's interesting cuz many many bricks were laid >> [laughter] >> along the path for us to arrive at where we are now.
So, there's that. But in the meantime, Air Doctor, may we please do two-step into the news? We can, but I did realize something. Uh-oh, what you realize?
Jackie always says it's not about it's not just Trump. Mhm. And you know what?
What? It isn't because that is the whole misleading thing, whereas if they feel like they get Trump out of office, then everything will be all right, not realizing it's not the person, it's the system.
Hear, hear.
No, that's the Democrats' sca- ology, right?
Well, y'all better come out and vote.
Or else it's going to be more of this.
Okay. It looked to me like people did vote, black people anyway.
But >> [music] [music] >> I'mma ask the question anyway cuz I know he didn't want me to ask the question, but did Well, did he just give me a compliment for no reason? What the hell is going on?
Did he sniff afterwards? Did he go >> [snorts] >> He didn't. No.
No. I'm trying to figure out what that tell really means. What what is about to happen? Something is about to happen.
>> What's about to happen, Air Doctor? I don't I don't know. I can't leave the house now. I See? See? I can't leave the house now. He put a hex on me. I need y'all to relax.
>> [laughter] >> Air Doctor, hold on. Air Air Doctor, come back up here real quick. I mean, in in the wake of all of the rolling back of Are you now moved to vote? Like, are you about to vote now?
>> [laughter] >> I'm just saying. Jackie, you live in DC.
I live in Maryland. I have voted not in every, but a majority of the elections since I was 18. I'll be 48. So, I have voted in 10 plus elections? I don't fucking know.
And in my I don't ever get WHAT I WANT.
OKAY?
I fucking vote faithfully. Nigga, I don't get shit that I want. So, I'm sorry.
>> [clears throat] >> Nothing changes.
I [sighs] just had to think about that real quick before I answered it.
You know, I mean Uh-huh. [clears throat] I've been studying Illuminati and stuff for a long time, since like the '90s and stuff like that. And realizing that all this stuff is already planned.
Meaning?
What what what what are you doing, Kim?
>> [laughter] >> I'm bad. I'm sorry.
It's natural.
If I don't understand, I have follow-up so.
>> [laughter] >> I I have to learn I'm a fish.
Let it let it lie. Let it lay right there.
That now is now is not the time to be a good journalist.
Apparently not, Jackie. I watch the White House press BRIEFINGS ON A REGULAR.
>> [laughter] >> AND THESE NIGGAS, LISTEN, if you scared of Trump, stay the fuck out the room.
It's really that simple. And let me say this, it it it does burn me up when I see Trump in particular going extra hard and disrespectful to black journalists, especially old girl from ABC News, Rachel Scott. He gives her the fucking blues. And I'm like, when is this chick going to realize that the The you give that nigga a read, you are a hero in history, beloved. You're not winning. You're You're not making history by letting this fucking cracker talk crazy. Y'all don't give a fuck who he is.
So, the sooner this black woman decide that she's not going to take and what it does, Jackie, it sets a bad fucking precedent. A continuous bad precedent.
When I see these black women journalists take this bullshit from this administration, what it signals is that you can disrespect black women all you want.
Because let her respond and she's going to be the angry black woman. Well, no person should adhere and eat and chop all that fucking disrespect. So, they don't do us any favors by simply being in the room and letting Trump talk crazy to them. And as soon as one of them decide to clap back, she doesn't realize that she is a fucking hero already.
>> [laughter] >> No, I mean on my goddamn nerves, yo. No, you're right.
>> Because this this is whole And then And look, I I understand. People need to eat. And especially in this economy. I Okay, cuz I know somebody is going to be like, "Well, you know, people are protecting their jobs." And I Listen, we we we deal with people who who who are are rep who are radical journalists who are radical journalists because they lost their jobs in mainstream media because they did their job.
Right? So, so And And you're you're looking at two of them.
So, so listen, this whole thing about Oh, I I you know, we need to pay. Yeah, I need to eat, too. We need to eat. But, I I'm not You have to have some morals.
You have to have some personal morals that that convey that that that reflect in your professional work. There has to be a line at which your professional uh pursuits get overtaken. They get pushed aside by your morals.
And and if you know that this person that you are interviewing is is the worst human being in the world, how in the world are you helping anyone?
Be cuz a part of journalism really is empowering people with the truth.
That is a part of journalism. If you tell people the truth cuz you know the government isn't, your job is to tell people the truth so that they can be empowered with real information and not bullshit.
And and if we got and and clearly we we always have. This has always been corporate media. And but we've seen it get worse and worse and worse over time.
And now, of course, we're where we are.
But but these are the folks who are are among those folks personally who I think, you know, if we could just get through this 4 years with everything will go back to normal.
Right? If we could just just get through this.
>> [laughter] >> And then then, you know, we'll we'll we'll be we'll be reporting on this disaster of an administration for 20 years and we'll never be out of work.
I'm sure that's what some of these people are thinking.
I'm sure they are.
>> [laughter] >> And and everybody else is just kind of putting their heads down hoping that they don't, you know, they don't want to rock the boat because they don't want to lose their good paycheck cuz they don't want to be among the poors like us.
>> [laughter] >> Right? And they and they want to stay in the proximity of power because that's where their identity is. It's so much in this.
You know, and and to be honest, some of these black folks in these positions where they have access to the halls of power, >> [clears throat] >> they're not really like us.
And I I hate to to >> [laughter] >> to to quote a rap song, but but they're not like us. And they And they don't They're petit bourgeois.
So, they're not really all that upset about what this administration is doing to working class and poor black people or immigrants or or you know, not even you know, white people. They're They're not They're very much like this is not A lot of them are Democrats. So, a lot of them are very much like, "See, this is what they get for not voting for Kamala."
Cuz see, in in DC, you know, the the black journalist group, all of them A whole lot of them.
See, this is This This is what This is what these what these silly young people get for criticizing Kamala. No politician is perfect.
But, she would have been better than this. This This is This is A lot of these journalists that They're just as They're almost as bad as the politicians.
We're We're There are few black journalists who will confront power. There are very, very few.
And and the ones that are in the room, the ones that are the White House correspondents, the It's none of them.
It's It's not them. I don't see I don't see what what what Quanell X and what's her name? I'm I'm I do not Dr. Candace Matthews, Dr. Matthews, I don't see any of them saying anything like that. I don't see any of them you know confronting not even politicians like Cory Booker.
Right? Cuz we that there are there are easy targets in politics to go after and then there are the you know the sacred cows that that will go after you and wreck your life. So yeah, I get partially some folks like well I don't want him you know destroying my stuff and imposing sanctions on me.
But they also don't confront any of them.
>> [snorts] >> They also don't confront any of them.
The these people it it's it's a room full of broken folks, right? Like people who are very happy to have jobs but have already acquiesced to the system and have no interest in asking any questions that either challenge it or even force the system to explain itself, right?
Like they're still trying to get questions, a response, a report about the bombing of the school in Manab in in Iran on the first day of the war.
This has been weeks now, you know what I'm saying? Where I I watch the White House press briefings. Where is the where is the questions about that? Like I don't it's it's just letting so much shit slide because this administration is throwing so much obvious like chaos and you know just just abdicating any type of norms that these journalists have been trained.
Like the the journalist ask this question and the politician responds this way and then the journalist you know it. Like it's it's very all scripted, you know this, right? So like but these people are terrified to deviate from the script and that's why I'm like are we in the fucking Matrix?
Like if somebody asks like a probing tough question of KKK Caroline or of Donald Trump did they Are they feared like everything's going to start glitching?
>> [laughter] >> Like no. Like like break free yourself, baby. Stand up. Like I I I may be coming from a prideful perspective. I can't I don't understand and under what circumstances I could stand there and let a white man talk crazy to me in front of cameras. Jackie, like I mean >> [laughter] >> No, I know he's the president. I I understand that. White man talking crazy to me. No.
Yeah, don't care. And and and as a journalist, I I don't want I'm not going to You said what?
Cuz cuz I didn't I didn't understand >> [clears throat] >> journalists, especially black journalists, during Obama or Biden.
Honestly, I didn't even understand them during Clinton to tell you the truth and I was in high school. Cuz when I saw that picture of Bill Clinton standing in front of all those black folks in prison when he was announcing the crime bill and I'm sitting in my social studies class asking my professor, uh Do Do you see anything wrong with this picture?
Is this I've been holding up the Newsweek magazine. Do you Can Can we talk about this? Cuz is Is this right? And and then I I and then I noticed cuz, you know, I was a news nerd when I was a kid.
When it was reported in corporate media, nobody talked about the the fucked up racist ass optics of that press conference until, of course, decades later.
And then, you know, my my scrutiny of the of the media, particularly black folks in the media, just got worse with Obama. Cuz it's like, wait a minute now. You Y'all Y'all niggers are not going to ask this man why he did what he did to Libya. You're not going to You're You going to Oh, in trouble. We They didn't want to ask Obama no questions.
You know.
Anyway, I'm mad. Was that air doctor that just threw me up there? What if What if I had LIKE WALKED AWAY?
AIN'T LIKE WE WOULD HAVE seen you.
>> [laughter] >> Zing! He got you there, Renee.
>> [laughter] >> Always with the smart-assery, always.
Oh, but I love it. Look at this, Collette. Every every everybody up here, pictured or not pictured, smart ass, top of our class, okay? Like, make no mistake about it. 100%.
>> [laughter] >> Yes.
>> Wait a minute. Jacqueline, check your email.
Or Naka, check your email. I may have sent y'all something.
>> [laughter] >> It's al- It's always a question mark. I may have >> It's always a question. It's Okay, I got it.
>> [laughter] >> So, Jackie, uh tell us who is this white man? You might recognize it cuz again, he looks recognizable, but then again, all those white TV pastors kind of look alike. But it's not like Creflo Dollar whoever. But I said, did I hear him right?
I don't I don't know I don't know who this guy is. Okay, well, Well, you know, I don't know.
Yeah, actually, I don't I don't pay any attention to to to white televangelists.
[laughter] Well, chat, I know some of y'all's mothers and grandmothers be watching Kenneth Copeland and shit, so y'all might know who this man is. It's okay.
It's all It's all right. But you know, you'll Hear him out. YOU'LL LIKE WHAT HE HAS TO SAY, I think. Okay, let's let's let's see. Let's see what he got to say.
Uh-oh, where's my heretic blaspheming Jezebel.
Paula White.
She cannot tell the truth. She's a word of faith fanatic.
I heard her say, "The spirit of the Lord just spoke to me right now and told me that 10 people were going to give $100,000."
I heard her say, "There is not a bit of difference between me and Jesus Christ."
>> [laughter] >> I heard her say, "I'M GOING TO PRAY FOR PEOPLE TONIGHT."
"BUT I'M NOT GOING TO PRAY FOR YOU till you lay an offering down here on the altar."
She's a blasphemer, a heretic, a deceiver, an apostate.
What's apostate?
>> And that's who he chose to help him do his conferences.
By the way, that's who your president chose to be his faith advisor.
Some of you won't look at me now.
That's who the president chose to give him advice on faith.
She does not represent me.
She can't tell the truth.
Those big shot guys cannot tell the truth. If they're trying to raise money constantly, they can't tell the truth.
I want to tell you something. Our president needs some help.
He needs some guidance. My He needs help, but he's NOT GOING TO GET IT FROM THAT. THE ONLY HELP HE CAN GET IS WHEN HE FALLS ON HIS KNEES.
AND CALLED ON THE NAME OF THE LORD.
OKAY. OKAY, that's enough of that cuz the Lord ain't going to help that shit.
The Lord is like, "I didn't do that.
What you calling me for?"
She's the akakakakakaka [laughter] that chick, right?
>> Yes. Okay. Okay.
Okay. Yes. Yes.
And and Kim, you may not remember or you may not have been paying attention. Paula White was a regular on the um uh uh the the end of the end of the year what do they call them? The the the New Year's um uh services after watch night like the big the the big mega churches used to have like these uh uh end of the year these these watch night conferences, these end of the year conferences. And I I used to I used to be a member of First Baptist Church of Glenarden and T.D. Jakes and Paula White and a bunch of other evangelical pastors would always have that conference. They would always have that week-long uh revival, whatever you want to call it.
Paula White was always it was Excuse me, always T.D. Jakes, always Paula White and a bunch of other uh pastors. And I I went to one of those. One. That's all it took.
Cuz I'm like, "Oh, this is some fuckery in here."
>> [laughter] >> But yeah, she So so you're not hearing a lot from black Christians right now cuz cuz a whole lot of us have propped that heffa up for a long time.
A long time.
All of these people that you saw in the White House putting their hands on laying hands praying and a whole of those people some of those people were on the the the the black uh uh Christian uh conference circuit.
They spoke at a whole lot of black mega churches. A whole lot.
And so all of these black Christians know who Paula White is and everybody is holding their heads down in shame hoping that nobody makes the connection. Yeah, well, too late.
Cuz she's our fault too.
Mhm. So Y'all Y'all was going to say I >> [laughter] >> Well, when I say our, I don't mean black people in general. I mean black Christians.
>> Black Christians. That's what Yes.
Y'all Y'all saw Yes.
>> [laughter] >> Yes.
Yeah. Uh-huh. No, like it seems I don't know. I I don't know if the veneer of of Magaism is is starting to show some some cracks or some wear, but it you know, you weren't hearing the white evangelical speak this way even a year ago, right? They they were praying for the president and we know President Trump is going to blah blah blah and God is going to blah blah blah, but now it's like wait.
Now we had now now there's actual smoke, but it's like Paula White has been doing her stick her grifting stick for a very long time. So it's it's interesting to hear this criticism of her right now and for him to dovetail what he was talking about her with what's going on with Trump. So it's like y'all just criticizing the titans of of your industry as as it were like are you what what is emboldening this switch in rhetoric coming from white evangelicals or at least that one cuz it It it it it's affecting the whole country and the world cuz I feel like there is a kind of an uneasy detente and and honestly a lot of progressive Christians um and I don't even know that this guy is progressive.
I'm just he's just he's just reading the scripture accurately. He's just being honest about this whole word of faith thing being bullshit which I also talk about in my forthcoming book We Need John Brown Christians that you can pre-order today from broadleafbooks.com. [laughter] No, please drop the link Jackie, cuz we have a goal. We have set a goal for Jackie to get to 1,000 pre-orders by by the book's release date, which will be later this year in 2026. So, Jacqueline, if you have the link available, kindly deposit it in the chat. Thank you so much, sir.
>> have the link available.
>> [laughter] >> Put that in the chat, y'all. We need 1,000 pre-orders. Let's get it cracking.
And look, I even have the thing. Look, there you go. There it is. All right.
So, but but I think um I think there is like an uneasy detente in in in the Christian community with the rise of these clearly white supremacists um and clearly capitalist and imperialist interpretations or application of certain scriptures.
Um And and it really is because Christianity in this country is is very It's very It's just like we are. It's very individualistic. It's very It has you know, Christian communities are isolated to their church, right?
Community for Christians in this country is not about like You know how Muslims uh have the ummah? And and they are connected to every Muslim in the world.
All Muslims are part of the ummah, the family of Islam.
Christian Christians in the US don't see themselves that way. We don't see ourselves as a part of the family of Christians around the world. We actually don't even see ourselves as Americans as part of the community of humanity. We we see ourselves as unique and individual people and a unique and individual country. And that does filter down into the faith community, particularly Abrahamic faith, cuz you got some Muslims who are like that too a little bit here in this country. Um, but they're usually the rich ones. They're they're they're Well, let me ask you another question because I saw a story that I I'm not going to bring it because it anyway, but there was a an attack on a Catholic nun in the Old City of Jerusalem uh that was caught on camera. It was done by of course, you know, Zionist settlers. And I I was wonder I'm like, how come American Christians aren't like mad about that? Like you know, I mean, they wasn't mad when the little white girl got run over by a a truck either. Bulldozer, yeah.
>> the bulldozer. They wasn't Was she Christian? Was she a Christian? I would Yeah, she was out there doing her like we can all live together thing.
Don't you know, don't don't tear it down. We can all live together in peace and they ran over her. So, but again, but I I hear and I understand that the Christians in this country are deeply hypocritical. I I I know that. But it's like for all the the rhetoric around, well, we have to defend Christians and the Christians are being attacked in Nigeria and we got to defend Christians.
When they saw the pictures of the iOS soldiers decapitating a statue of Jesus in Southern Lebanon in, you know, the cradle of Christianity in in that like no response from no no white pastor, no black pastor, nobody. It's like, okay, well, then are we not defending the Christians then?
>> [laughter] >> It's like which is it?
Well, that the whole situation, the whole Israel situation in Christianity in this country is entirely fucked up.
Um, there are more Christian Zionists in this country than there are than there are actually Jewish people and certainly more than there are Jewish Zionists, right? And and to be clear, all Jews are not Zionists, all right?
But but this whole um empire-focused European interpretation, misinterpretation, fucking up the scriptures, changing words, you know, all this kind of stuff already happened thousands of years ago.
And then you get the the the the white supremacist right-wing uh folks who had the power and the influence to craft a narrative based on the already uh misinterpreted and thrown together and and guessed at and and translated from four five different languages scriptures, right? Then you get somebody with the power and the influence to craft a narrative on what those ancient scriptures mean today without paying any attention to the cultural and historic origins of where the scripture came from and what that means in regard to what those scriptures actually mean. So so basically that was a long-ass way of saying, then some white person with a whole lot of money and power was able to say, oh, well, this is what this means for us today when the the scriptures in the Bible that we finally got don't reflect any kind of modern understanding of the society we live in at all. So there's no kind of one-to-one comparison that we should be doing with the scriptures um in in 80% of the cases where we can actually say, well, the Bible clearly says that we should not be doing it.
Bullshit, the Bible don't clearly say much anything other than love your damn neighbor like you love yourself. That that is That's it. But there's too much money involved. That's that hippie woke shit.
That's too woke. That's too woke. We don't want to Yeah, there's too much money involved. It's so much easier to get I mean, starting a church is the easiest Why you think there's so many little storefront churches and little house churches? It's cuz of the tax exempt and people give you money. So why don't we have a church?
I mean I I don't see why >> [laughter] >> So what? Where our church?
You know, but but >> wait, wait, real quick. Speaking of church, speaking of tax exemptions, I think we should apply to the slush fund and say that we were persecuted under the Biden administration. Thoughts?
Question mark?
>> [laughter] >> I'm so glad you brought that up cuz there's I did a a a a little monologue on that and it'll be on Patreon on Black Liberation Media's Patreon today. So you can hear my thoughts on that bullshit.
>> [laughter] >> I think we should I Well, let me speak for myself. I'm going to [clears throat] apply and see what the fuck happens.
It's not like a PPP loan, right? Like this is like they they they might just send you a check, you know?
But are they are they allowing people to do it who aren't Trumpers?
I don't think so.
>> I think you have to be a Trumper. I don't even know what that means. How do you >> [laughter] >> I mean, they watching everything you do, so they going to know you NOT A TRUMPER.
>> [laughter] >> THESE ARE NOT THE SHARPEST knives in the drawer, though, you understand? Like The government ain't running the way the government was being ran, so I don't know.
I want Please keep me posted. I want to know how that goes.
It can't Listen, no, unless, you know, I was persecuted by Joe Biden, by his idiocy and his and his cruelty.
To others. I watched it.
I agree.
I agree fully. I also think that with the amount so for people who have never encountered issues with the IRS the the way the IRS functions against working people is wild, right?
So, you file your taxes, you can't afford to make the payment that first day because whatever reason you're automatically hit with a fine, with a penalty, it accrues with time, even if you have a payment plan and you're still accruing all kinds of interest and fees and penalties and they start coming after your stuff. And then even when you get to a place where you're able to make payments they're so vicious. Like if you owe taxes for 5 years, right?
If your highest year that you owe taxes for was the first of those 5 years, they want you to pay that first because after 10 years they have to stop coming after you.
The the whole thing is a mafia scheme, right? Like the whole entire setup is a mafia scheme.
And so when when I look at things like we're going to set up this fund specifically to help this group of people who if I recall correctly were like flying to DC on a whim to go do things so they're not even like I don't even know how many of these people are actually like regular ass working people who could benefit who could actually benefit from getting a break from the IRS because it's such a mafioso setup, right? So, the whole thing to me is like I I don't even I don't even know how to I don't even know how to be upset about it because this is all This is how we work like this is how this country works. You know what I'm saying? Like I see brother Jamal. I hear you, Jamal.
Brother I hear you. Brother Jamal said that you're giving the mafia a bad name.
>> [laughter] >> I don't know, but I I wish you luck and I want to know how it works and I listen, I surely made sure that I went for my loan forgiveness when it was available and I danced a jig when they forgave that bad boy.
And so, I am not mad and anybody who's like, let's see how we can manage to get this if we can squeeze some in here, go for it. I'm I'm in full support. Let me know if you need me to write YOU A LETTER.
>> [laughter] >> I'M I'M ASSUMING IT'S JUST GOING TO BE AN APPLICATION, RIGHT? AGAIN, this isn't this isn't your your mama's federal government.
>> [laughter] >> And and I mean I I feel like >> [clears throat] >> since we we know that you know, because the the the point of the fund the point of the fund was really so Trump um could could benefit financially from settling the lawsuit against the IRS cuz he knew he wasn't going to win a lawsuit, a $10 million lawsuit against the IRS because somebody leaked his tax returns. He knew he wasn't going to win that, but he he wanted to he wanted to get something out of the deal. So, he made a deal. Now, Trump is the head of the DOJ.
>> [laughter] >> So, he made a deal with himself to to to to drop the lawsuit against the IRS in exchange for the IRO for for the DOJ setting up this 1.8 uh uh uh what is it? Million or billion?
Million.
>> B but B >> B B that's a billion. 1.8 billion dollar reverse restitution fund for particularly Trump supporters who have been harmed by uh um uh the weaponization of the government. And they're specifically talking about um uh the government uh going after pro-life uh supporters, uh Trump supporters, and the January 6th supporters.
So, we know that the government has been weaponized against our people for years.
And and there are also other aspects of this fund, which I just found out yesterday, um that there are no the fund that is set up can't be there's no oversight. Mhm. There is no They're like, "No, you can't look at no books."
No, you can't look at nothing. So, yes, go right ahead and apply because we know the government has been weaponized against our people, so go ahead and apply in the in for for for for for Fred Hampton. Go on and apply for Dr. King. Go on and apply for Malcolm. Go ahead and apply for Ella Baker. And and uh go ahead and apply for Angela Davis. Go on and apply for Mark Clark.
Go ahead and apply for for for Aunt Smith.
You know, go go right ahead and apply for those 60 protesters in Atlanta who got uh uh charged with fucking RICO charges for protesting. Go ahead and apply.
Everybody in Minneapolis apply. Go ahead.
Take every Apply before they do and take every dime.
Lie if you have to, but take every dime.
Cuz Cuz if they can't audit What How can If If no one can audit the fund to see who gets the money, how can the people who are supposed to distribute the money then turn around and say, "Well, you can't apply." Because No, you didn't you didn't want any audit. So I was harmed by the government.
>> Jackie sees the vision. Renee, you I need you to listen to Jackie. Jackie understands what Listen, I I feel like I backed down and then >> you should fucking apply, Renee. God dammit.
>> [laughter] [gasps] >> You have a case.
Look, everybody in every state with ICE agents Everybody and they mama. Apply in the name of the people that was that was that was uh uh arrested and kidnapped.
And apply in every every single Apply in the name of everybody in the Epstein files. Dammit, y'all. Come on.
What the I And And listen, I remember me and Abdis having this argument about those PPP loans cuz my man was like, "Girl, we going to apply for them loans."
>> [laughter] >> It was a setup. I saw the PPP. I was like, "That shit is a setup. No."
>> And I was like, "Baby, for days me and him in here like, 'Baby, that's a bad idea.
>> [laughter] >> I understand what you saying.
But that's a bad idea because that Uh-uh. No, it's not going to We They ain't going to treat us like that. No.
No. The Jackie, no. No. They It's a mess. They're not going to be able to keep up with nothing, blah blah blah.
I'm not doing it. No, honey, no, no, no.
And and we was mad at each other for a couple of days and and and he finally dropped it and I was like, that's okay cuz I look, I'm not fighting. I'm not going to jail over that. Now, if I'm going to jail >> [laughter] >> Right.
Right. Well, I'm not going over going to jail because I I I I tried to rip off the government and I couldn't.
Ask God.
>> to know Air Doctor, what are you going to jail for?
>> [laughter] >> I stay home.
I stay home and only leave when people hire me to leave. That's it. And the statute of limitations has run out.
Exactly.
>> [laughter] >> Yo, um, it looks like Keisha Lance Bottoms might be the next governor of Georgia. Is that what you think?
>> [laughter] >> Right.
What the heck?
Is that what leave Is is that what happened? I mean, it goes back to is it better than for her or Kemp to stay? You know what I'm saying?
>> running again? I thought he was back in >> No, he's not, but I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I mean No, I feel you, but come on. Better how? Better better how?
Better how? If you are just as poor and oppressed by the police and everything else under Kemp as you as you are under Keisha then better how? I think if I think I think the the white people held Kemp accountable and hopefully black people will hold Keisha accountable for her actions. But when you say Keisha, is she is she the nominee? Are you telling us news here? What am I Yeah, she she won the the Democratic race for governor.
>> Okay, so she won the pri- okay. Okay.
So, Stacey Abrams said she wasn't going to try it again, huh?

All right. All right, you know what?
See, that's just I don't know why.
>> [laughter] >> Look, you see I didn't come off mute.

I'm just Why did they make you regret asking questions? Like why did I even say anything?
I got I got one person I was looking at voting for.
I went to one of her I DJ'd one of her events, so I mean she hired me. So let me say that you can write in people. I I write in my I think I wrote myself in for governor or at the last time cuz I didn't like nobody. I said, "Well, shit, I'm the best qualified person here. Let me Let me write the most qualified person on name on the ballot." Myself.
>> That sounds good, go. Waste your gas and time to go down there and do that.
>> It's a walk and it's not a waste cuz again [clears throat] Hey, I They didn't just say show up and vote. They didn't say who to vote for.
>> [laughter] >> I'm just saying it's a waste if you put yourself on the ballot. It's not. No, it's not.

If you vote on yourself or your dog, it's not wasted?

Uh the N double A Look, Kemathi is going to lay it on the floor. He turned >> [laughter] >> He turned around and he like, "You ain't got to read that shit."
There go the boys.
The NAACP and the Congressional Black Caucus are calling on black athletes and fans to boycott the athletic programs of public universities in states that are taking steps that the nation's oldest civil rights group says are restricting black voting rights launched on Tuesday. The NAACP's out of bounds campaign urges current and prospective black athletes, their families, alumni, and fans to withhold athletic and financial support from major public universities in states that have moved to limit weaken or erase black voter representation.
If black athletes participate in the boycott, it could deplete rosters for powerhouse football and basketball programs across the Southern Conference and Atlantic Coast Conference.
Uh uh the NAACP's campaign calls out Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, and South Carolina as states to boycott. Let me just tell you all right now, this ain't going to happen. That's the whole SEC. And and thank you.
Seriously, seriously, y'all seriously. I Oh my lord, why?
Like why? So, first of all, first of all, all of these schools are full scholarship programs. So, what you're essentially telling all of these teenagers is to not go to college >> [laughter] >> because your black ASS SAT IN CONGRESS AND DIDN'T DO SHIT TO PROTECT VOTING RIGHTS, YOU MOTHERFUCKERS.
THEY HAVE LOST THEIR MIND.
They have lost their mind. I Listen.
Listen. And Look, and I'm I'm I'm in full understanding that this whole pride and NILs, college football, basket, like it's all horse shit, right? It's all capitalism. It's all fucked up. But for this to be the answer? They So, the answer is we didn't do shit for decades, but now you, at 18 years old, should give up the one opportunity that you were able to squirrel YOURSELF AWAY AFTER YOU SPENT all this time telling these children to go to college.
And Renee, and it's even more insidious than that. It's even more insidious than that because now that we're in NIL, uh what what is NIL? Image and likeness?
What is the first Uh name, image, and likeness. Yep. Image and likeness. For the first time in the history of this entire plantation sort of setup when it comes to collegiate sports and and and and and student athletes, for the first time these kids are actually getting money, right? So, now the NAACP going to tell the children >> [laughter] >> that ladder out of poverty that you just earned, oh oh no, kick that shit over to the side because we got to stand up for voting rights. Y'all don't get the whole fuck out of here. Maybe give the kids some political education and teach them maybe to direct their money towards, you know, organizations and causes that that are fighting the good fight, but don't tell the kids to give up the fucking cuz it's a check now. It's not It's not a goddamn education. It's a check.
Like something material and tangible.
Some shit they could really use.
You know what I'm I just Yeah, I can't even I can't even understand how Like who came up with this stupid fucking plan? And Steven, you are correct.
I am going to get in trouble with my mother for all this cussing. You're right.
>> [laughter] >> You're right.
But listen, if if any if anything needed [laughter] to cuss is these dumb motherfuckers sitting up in Congress doing not one fucking thing to protect ANY OF THESE RIGHTS THAT THEY HAVE JUST ALLOWED TO GET SQUANDERED THE FUCK AWAY AND THEN TURN AROUND AND TELLING THESE CHILDREN who [snorts] have BEEN WORKING THEIR ASSES OFF because this is their only little itty-bitty window of opportunity to do something that they got to get If they don't get the whole fuck out of here. I Listen.
>> [laughter] >> When Jackie said to the Congressional Black Caucus, I said, "Oh, no."
>> [laughter] >> The NAACP and the I said, "Oh, no."
Listen here. I >> [laughter] >> I want to know where the NAACP has been on these campuses engaging with these student athletes, with these young black folks on these PWI campuses in these southern states where you know they get treated like shit cuz it's the fucking South and it's the PWI and the only protection they really kind of have is the fact that they are athletes. Right?
But but that that that's pretty much it.
So, where Where has the NAACP been on these campuses talking to these students about the presence of the military-industrial complex on these campuses that exist to create this pipeline of students from college into the defense contractors, from college into the FBI, college into the CIA, college into the OAS.
Right? What Where are Where is the NAACP engaging on these campuses with these students providing them the support they need to be successful and protected on campus? What Where has the NAACP been in protecting college students who have been attacked by their universities for standing against imperialist, genocide, and militarism. Not just with Palestine because these were the students who were making the connections between Palestine and Sudan and Congo and all these black-ass countries that are being bombed and invaded by the US, Israel, and the EU. Where the fuck has the NAACP been?
Where was the NAACP when North Carolina Central was sending police after their own fucking students cuz they didn't have housing? Y'all trying to give me a heart attack this morning. I can't. What is And and then can Can I just say Can y'all please stop calling for a boycott thinking that is how a boycott happens, you stupid motherfuckers? And the NAACP knows damn well better that that's not how a boycott Ooh, Jesus. Mm. Okay, good.
>> Listen, it's important for y'all to get it out and cuss because we cannot internalize all this stress and rage.
That's how people have heart attacks.
That's right, Renee. You cuss so you don't have a heart attack, okay?
Let it out.
>> is This is wild.
This is wild. And this is a on So, because I'm so close to the athletic world via my husband, I I see all of the contradictions in it, but I also see dozens, if not hundreds, of people who utilize their scholarship to get their degree and to find some means to actually like survive in this shitty capitalist system, right? And that is the majority.
That is the majority because the pyramid of going from high school, whatever sport, to professional, whatever sport, is very skewed. It's It's like 0.01% of people who play in high school actually get paid to play professionally. The majority of these children, the most they're going to get out of it is a degree.
That's the most they're going to get out of it.
And the NAACP has stepped up not once, not once. What What school is it that they kicked off the MAGA speaker? Where were they when the the state of Was that Kentucky?
No, South Carolina was talking about defunding their only black public HBCU?
What That That was like 2 weeks ago. Y'all ain't had nothing to say then?
And [clears throat] this And And And this is This is the kind of thing I think that is that is very frustrating because we know that the attacks on equality, particularly for us and indigenous people, um have been under attack for decades.
The The conservatives have been And And conserve That's not even the right word for them. I just haven't found a good enough word to really describe who who these people are. Fascists, I think, is a good word. There we go. So So the fascists have been have been attacking all of the efforts to provide that opportunity for equality that our ancestors didn't have for years. So, I mean again, I have to ask, where where was the NAACP in in in calling for anything when affirmative action was rolled back on college campuses? And and look, there plenty there's plenty of of criticism that we can have for the legislation and how it actually worked out. But, it's just really interesting to see these folks show up.
And and to see when they show up and for what? Because these same politicians, again, like we have been saying, what has the CBC done or said about genocide? About weapons to Israel? About all these people being kicked off of of welfare, all those black people and mostly women fired from their government jobs?
What where has the NAACP and the Congressional Black Caucus been? They weren't this visible during any of all of the stuff leading up to this. What have they said about Cuba? What have they said about Venezuela? And if you think these things don't matter to what's going on, uh you know, on on you know, a college campus.
This is imperialism. It is all tied together. All of it.
So, I these two entities, I hate to say it, but they have no legitimacy in in this struggle we are in now. And the And for the NAACP, that is a damn shame because they are a part of the a legitimate part of our history of struggle. And and they they went the same way as the CBC. They abdicated their revolutionary responsibility to being a part of the neoliberal system and taking a check for being figureheads. And and that's pretty much it. But it's it's a damn shame that in in the midst of coalescing fascism, this is all this is the caliber of leadership we have.
Leadership we have. That's that's a damn shame.
It's cowardly to ask kids to make that kind of sacrifice.
And I understand that we that we are all are going to have to sacrifice something, but I don't think No. That that that that's not it, guys.
Like that that ain't it. The kids that I'm I'm really floored that this was their like this is their big plan because not one of those children who says I'm not going to play is not going to get the boot off that campus. So you are literally taking away the entire thing because if you are not on campus with your scholarship, you can't be on campus. It's what it's all tied together. So I'm like, did y'all just throw it like like they honestly think what? First of all, first of all, the professionals in the sports couldn't get their shit together to to figure anything out in order to support any means of actual revolutionary strategy or even just strategy period to try and do something to call attention to shit, right? We going to turn it over now and tell all these children like, okay, you just going to we just going to let you go. Do they not understand do they not that every one of them is replaceable?
Every one of them is replaceable.
And they'll just let them leave and send another kid who's like, oh, fuck that.
I'm taking that seat. Like we are living in a place of individualism and you want these people to get these children to give up their entire strategy, their entire plan to do something that your >> [laughter] >> And and and that like that is the thing.
It This is not what you're hearing from us, folks, is not like a defense of colleges and universities and and and their sports programs. No not No, no, not at all. Not at all.
The issue is the NAACP and the CBC haven't done anything to support the people they're asking to make the sacrifice.
They haven't done their job and now they're asking people to come along and and and and and do their job for them for them. [laughter] And and it's like no, no. And and and and over over over voting rights.
Voting rights that that neither of these organizations fought to hold the previous administration accountable for ensuring Who in the NAACP and the CBC pushed the Biden administration or the Obama administration to protect what was left of the Voting Rights Act when they had the power to do it.
Don't think.
But now now that like like like Leave them kids alone.
Leave them kids alone.
Like like you've been doing. Pretend like they're not there. Like you've been doing.
Because and and and listen and then this is also like the weird part. These are the same kids.
Like, how how are you going to convince several generations of of of of of kids who want to play sports in high school, college, and and, you know, hopefully make it to the professionals, which we know barely 1% of all college athletes make it to the professional leagues in every sport.
But, how are you going to convince these kids who watched the entire NFL, the entire sports commenting environment, corporate media, all the politicians, and most of the American population, including the NAACP and the CBC, cuz who were practically silent on the blackballing of Colin Kaepernick?
How are you going to convince these kids who watched the entire establishment of the United States blackball Kaepernick?
Include and and know that the NAACP nor the CBC did or said much when that happened. Why do these folks think that the young people who saw them or didn't see them stand up in defense of Kaepernick, why in the world do these people think that those kids are going to listen to them?
That I That's the kind of arrogance that that that I think I've only been used to seeing in white politicians, but I I don't understand how these people think. They have not shown up when we have needed their voice in that and and now all of a sudden they're going to come out and tell us that y'all better boycott.
Man, get the hell back in your cave, please. Go go away.
For reals. What What you think, Ed Jackson?
I think people still following people that call they self colored is a problem.
What?
Mhm. Huh?
Cuz I was talking about the NAACP.
It's the name.
>> You would you would pick the most random part of this whole conversation.
>> [laughter] >> What? Let me finish nobody I mean you asked.
I'm just saying I find it kind of crazy to still be calling yourself a colored person and anyway.
That's why we got to stop asking.
Yeah, we do. Just >> [laughter] >> He said it.
You asked. That's right.
>> [laughter] >> All right. Just just play the music.
Okay. Mhm.
Did Jackie say shut UP AND DJ?
OH MY GOD. ALL RIGHT. I'll shut up and DJ. Take your shirt off. All right.
Wow. [laughter] I'm being sub subjugated or something. One of them words. Yeah. Yes. That was right? No.
Okay.
>> [laughter] [music] >> Mustang Sally. What's up everybody? How y'all doing? I'm the Air Doctor and uh yes, don't get it confused. Y'all on the right platform which is Black Liberation Media and this is the Remix Morning Show. So hit that like button subscribe.
Hit it now. Like hit it now while I'm talking. Stop playing. Just hit it. I don't see no I don't see the like button being hit right now. So just hit it and stop playing.
All right. Yo, we got a lot of dope shows on this platform. One of the shows which is the Black Miss Podcast where they're talking about voting rights and talking about colonization.
Let's see what they have to say about voting rights and colonization.
Can you just define colonialism straight up without even the internal and then we'll we'll come back to the internal.
Okay.
So, a long So, colonialism is at least just to be very general is subjugation of a people, um taking their land, um and then imposing basically imposing um your ideology and will on a people.
Just make it very plainly.
Okay.
So, So, when it So, when we return back to the internal element, um this kind of gets to the next question.
Often people will There have been criticisms of internal colonialism or even some people will say it's just a metaphor.
And you know, I believe even Cabral didn't even agree with the internal colonialism framework.
Um I don't remember off top of head what I kind of remember, but not enough to really go dig deep into it, but like um So, why why is it in what What makes it internal colonialism? And why would it be more than I'm assuming for you more than just like a metaphor per se? Like what makes it more I guess more material?
Go ahead and find that answer by checking out the Black Myths Podcast, the last dropped episode. That's what you could get right here on Black Liberation Media. So, make sure y'all keep tuning in and tell a friend to tell a friend it's on again.
All right. With that said, let's get back to the crew. You know how we do.
>> [music] >> Yes. Yes. A jam though. All you want to do is ride around, SALLY.

>> Wilson Pickett? Stop niggers out here.
Yo, hard, too.
>> [laughter] >> How many Sallys? When y'all they they make they make a new Sallys? Do y'all know any new Sallys? Any new Sallys?
Mhm. It's like a burner dead.

I mean, you in Jersey.
>> my high school. No, she's [laughter] younger than me. What does that mean?
That's You know what? What does her being in Jersey have to do with this?
>> [laughter] >> It's a lot of different uh different people in Jersey.
I'm from there. I don't know.
>> not from Jersey.
>> [laughter] >> I did not grow up in Jersey.
This ain't got nothing to do with where you grew up, Miss Renee. This where you at. Ooh, ooh, ooh, my god. But if I said it's my friend's from high school's little sister, what does that have to do with New Jersey?
That has nothing to do because I wasn't listening to everything you said. See, there [laughter] you go.
That's true.
This man I guess I I do [laughter] not understand him.
You know what? We going to see how much air Dr. Wu want me to listen next time he need me to do something at 7:00 in the morning. You know, look, look.
Everybody got jokes till they NEED A FAVOR.
>> [laughter] >> YOU SEE, THIS is why I get up in the morning and I am not an I am not a morning person, but this is why I get up in the morning and do this because it's nice to start a couple of days off in this hellscape with uh some laughter um as we talk about some of this serious, serious evil shit going on. We should be absolutely laughing through the end times. You know, who are we to not have a sense of humor when it all falls down, you know what I'm saying?
That's right.
Any who.
Top of the morning to you remixers. We appreciate y'all hanging out with us today. Look at y'all lucked out with Jackie Luke Mon, Renee Johnston, Brown and Air Doctor. Remixes in the chat.
Now, Air Doctor has encouraged you all to hit that like button because the math simply does not be mathing, beloveds. I have no idea how many people are watching now, but I know that the likes on the video do not match the amount of people watching [laughter] this live.
I'm psychic that way. I just know be knowing shit.
So please, stop being a hater. Let me get on my Jared Ball's soap soapbox right here.
Don't be over here watching if you ain't going to be over here liking. That's it.
>> [laughter] >> That's the answer.
So anyway, I'm sorry.
So I don't know if we talked uh >> Wait, I just wanted to give a shout out real quick. Um, ZZ Lion Dashing in a five dollars. No, Kim. Southern Evangelical Christian believe Catholic is not real Christian.
Catholic is not Uh Old Greece, five dollars. Understand what people will do for a buck. No offense. That's it. I'm done.
Thank you, ZZ Lion Daddy. You're right.
And that's And that's the the part of the white hierarchy that I don't I don't be understand I let the whites decide amongst themselves who's on top. I don't know.
I don't understand that shit either.
It's [laughter] just like, what?
Because the Protestants think that the Catholics it's blasphemous to to to pay homage to the saints in the same way that, you know, the evangelicals, you know, demonize our our ancestral religious practices because we venerate our ancestors. Well, they venerate a flag. So, I mean I know I know why they do it. It just It just makes no It's like y'all Do y'all realize that you are the most hypocritical, ridiculous, pathological, lying species of of animal on the planet? Do you Like you No.
>> They make no Their existence is not logical. I I just I I don't understand just Oh.
And then that whole the whole prayer service Sunday. Oh my god. I just But some of it is too on the nose. Like the niggers laid hands on like a golden statue of Trump. I'm like Did Did y'all not read accident? Like I'm not even a biblical like that jack. They don't.
They don't. Look, I did that That was the part of the whole reason I wrote the book. It's like, "Okay, I get it. None of us read it. None of us read it." Most of us We we are happy to go to church and to have somebody tell us what's in the book cuz it's big.
And this this dovetails. Hey, look at that. Look at that.
This dovetails right into what we've been talking about about the the the the the epidemic of illiteracy in this country.
The fact that most Christians don't read their Bible and I think this is true of most Jews and probably most Muslims in this country, too. The and and whatever religion has a a a spiritual text, I think most adherents don't read that spiritual text because not because people are inherently hypocritical, but because in this country most people don't read. And that is true across the board. So yes, we have churches and and mosques and uh uh synagogues and other spiritual gatherings full of people who really don't read their spiritual texts.
So they believe whatever is told to them about the text by their chosen leader.
That's why they're chosen because they trust him.
So, you know, we've got a bunch of people who are literally like they they they they have not been taught to read in a way that is enjoyable so that they can understand. The Bible itself is not easy to read because of the way it was put together by all the different people all that translated from a different language and words that don't exist anymore. They're making shit up and yeah, all that kind of stuff. And then individual politics of people colors the way they interpret what they do read.
So there is a lot of cherry picking. There is a lot of oh, I don't want to do that.
That's that's the no. This is what I want to do because it fits into the the existing worldview that people have. So this is where um the character of of the people comes into play in twisting the faith. Because in this country most evangelical Christians if you go to a typical evangelical church on a Sunday, they're not preaching the words of Jesus.
They're not.
They are preaching from the Paul from their interpretation of the Pauline gospel. of Paul's letters which if you interpret them a certain way, they do seem to to suggest a leaning toward authoritarianism, but if you understand the context in which Paul was saying what he was saying, you realize that he's not saying those things at all.
But but it all goes back to Christians don't read the book. We don't read it.
We do not understand it. We don't understand the historical context because nobody focuses on the fact that where the Bible was written is the area we call Palestine today. You just don't read, beloved.
So, yeah.
Yes. Entirely fucked up.
>> when I was a child. I read the children's Bible and then I read the Bible Bible once from front to back. I never read it again and that and that's because I didn't like it.
It's It's not a warm fuzzy tale. I remember getting to Revelations. I I was probably 10 when I read the Bible and I'm like, what the >> [clears throat] >> It's It's very traumatizing. The Bible is very contradictory. It doesn't make sense. It's very patriarchal.
Um you know, it it promotes wiping out people.
>> [laughter] >> Like There's a There's a lot at fault with the Bible and the fact that the leaders of this country want to adhere to the Bible or their version of it and go do everything they can to to ensure this Judeo-Christian Fuck yourself. There's nothing Jewish nor Christian about this nation. It's only white supremacist and capitalist.
That's it. Like the Miss me with with your fake religion.
But in the But it's the fact that Trump is such a blatant demon.
>> [laughter] >> And they seem unbothered. They seem, you know, like unable to register that everything that the Bible outlined that I the Antichrist or some other, you know, malevolent figure. Like he is all of that blatantly, obviously, not subtly. And they just we just going to pray for the president.
Pray for Pray to who?
Shaitan? Who are you praying >> [laughter] >> to? Who are you Who are you praying to?
But but again, you know, this is and and I understand that people do not like talking about religion. And that And that's fine. I understand. But that's that's why we're so fucked up.
Because we've been conditioned to hate talking about religion. We The things that we have been told that we shouldn't talk about in polite company, politics, religion, and money, are the reason that we're so fucked up about these things and we don't understand how they really do impact our lives whether we believe in these things or not because regardless of what you believe about Christianity or Islam or anything, talking about these things does not mean that we are supportive of them. We are just talking about the material conditions that our people live in. And the the material conditions we are all living in is that we live in an We live in a a country that is governed by a system that is deeply deeply influenced by a twisted white supremacist misinterpretation of an already messed up and misinterpreted uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh That is the reality whether you believe in Christianity or not.
The the misinterpretation of this faith is impacting your life and it has been for decades.
And the attacks on Muslims, the fact that there are people running around, again, killing Muslims and are okay with killing Muslims and are okay with genocide of Palestinians and are are are are are okay with an unprovoked attack on Iran?
That comes from this twisted misinterpretation of Christian scriptures because the Islamophobia in this country absolutely comes from a misinterpretation of Christian scriptures. And yes, I talked about that in my book, too. So, isn't there isn't there something and I know that's such a broad question. Isn't there something currently that is either in a sitting in a committee or that has been brought to the house pertaining to Sharia law? Now, I know that's very 2011 of me even say that, but I know here in 20 No, there's there's something brand new about Sharia law and banning Sharia law.
And it it's wild because, you know, I get I don't like, you know, I don't care whatever but about religion. But my my I'm said this to say that some of us have children. Some of us live in states where your kids have the Ten Commandments hung on the fucking wall in the goddamn school.
>> [laughter] >> And they And they don't have a choice.
You can't opt out of that.
Like that's being that that is that is wholesale indoctrination happening to your child regardless of what you teach in your household. Um and we have to figure ways to confront that or make sure that your children are not, you know, deeply influenced by that indoctrination that they are going to receive at school if they're not already getting it. How many states have passed the Ten Commandments in in the in the I know Oklahoma, I want to say Louisiana, Missouri. Chat check in here.
You live in a state or you know which states got the Ten Commandments hanging in the comments, drop it in the comments, Chat, please. Thank you. I'm thinking of writing a book, Jackie.
You should. I should. And I was talking about the book of Enoch.
And And really what it needs to be cuz all these religions is really about a code of ethics, ain't it? I mean, when it comes down to it, it's how you you treat people. And I don't need a big book for that.
>> [laughter] >> I mean I mean, it's about being intentional about how you treat people.
What What What more do you need to say?
I mean, all these other stories about this, that, and the third, all leads up to how this person treated this person, and and how you supposed to be living and and doing good and bad. And like, it's And then it comes to like, what is good and bad? It just is.
I don't know. Well, if it were that simple, we wouldn't need to tell people thou shalt not kill. Obviously, you you know, you have [laughter] to tell some people that because they like doing that shit.
>> [gasps] >> You know? And this And this And this this this is not I'm not saying this in defense of Christianity because, you know, I am a liberation theology focused Christian.
Um I am a follower of follower of Jesus Christ. I also understand the historical context, the the the the cultural context of the of the Abrahamic faiths cuz they all come from the same same place. All the Abrahamic faiths all come from the region we call the Middle East, all of them.
Um cuz they all originate from the same guy, Abraham. So, all come from the same place that has a long history of occupation and violence. Those stories in the Bible that talk about uh you know, genocide, those are stories of occupations that have happened in the past. That's what those stories are. They're not like they're not um you know, God approved slavery because it's mentioned in the Bible. Well, if I'm telling you that my neighbor beats his wife every day and I've lived next to him for 20 years and every day that man has beat his wife.
And and it it was that way and I describe it to you and and does that if I'm telling you that, does that mean I condone it or I'm just telling you it happened?
And then the thing that comes after that, which is different from what everybody accepts, that thing challenges what was accepted as behavior at the time. That's the context that some of this fucked up stuff that's in the Bible was written in.
But the idea >> [clears throat] >> that it's a faith itself that causes people to do evil things, I don't think that's the case. I think people misinterpret any faith or any belief to justify the evil shit they want to do. That's what it is, really.
>> Because I Look, people people are Some people are selfish. Some people are evil.
But I don't think most people are, you know, just people. Most people are just people and they just want to have a decent life and get along and and you know, Some people do need some extra instruction.
Like if they was Yeah, like Dr. Seuss, like Green Eggs and Ham.
If that was like said, like, "Yo, you eat Green Eggs and Ham. You know you ain't supposed to be doing that."
It is what it is. It's a book of manipulation where somebody could pick this book up and be like, "I see you eating that Green Eggs and Ham, my man, and that ain't the right thing to do."
You know what I'm saying? So, somebody can use it. Big up to Old Dirty Kung Fu.
That's who I ran into on Saturday Sunday.
Uh-huh, I was trying to figure it out.
Peace, y'all. You killing the decks on Sunday, fam. It was great meeting you.
Yes, it was.
>> So, it wasn't Dre. It was not [laughter] Dre. It was Old Dirty Kung Fu. You know them light-skinned dudes all look the same. Hey, big up to Old Grease sitting in $2. Be good. The devil was in the details.
>> [laughter] >> But, here now this is the last thing I'm going to say on this.
>> Okay.
Understand that faith traditions, spirituality, in general, all spiritual beliefs do not exist.
They were not created to control people.
They were manipulated to control people, just like anything and everything is used by manipulative people to manipulating control people. Right?
Faith traditions and spirituality exist to give people some sense of order and the sense of belonging and peace in a chaotic unexplainable world.
Right? When you think of faith traditions emerging from ancient times, think of the way people lived in those times.
No real understanding of uh the sea that you know, they know the seasons change, but there's there's there's myste- there's mystery around the lack of sun for half the year and more sun for the other half the year.
Right? So, there are are superstitions about darkness. Uh there's fear about darkness. And those things don't come out of ignorance, they come out of survival. Right? Darkness is difficult or was difficult in ancient societies because you can't see what's coming.
And and they didn't live in a developed world, so they lived very close to nature and animals. And some of those animals wanted to eat you.
>> [clears throat] >> So, darkness meant less safety for ancient uh uh societies. But, there were also leaders who were cruel. There were occupations, there were wars, there were all this kind of And people, regular folks, trying to survive couldn't make sense of their place in this world.
That's where spiritual traditions come from. They are ways to make sense of chaos and what seems like disorder. Mhm.
To ground people and give people some kind of hope that there is some kind of sense in this, and that ultimately what they're seeing as obstacles in this this world they can't understand, they will ultimately prevail. Yeah. That is what every faith is really about. That's why most of them came about. Um To give you a reason to live.
That's a people thing. That That's us.
So, so with that said, Renee, you there?
>> [laughter] >> I don't know. It depends on what you're about to say.
I feel that Jackie deserves a Sunday breaking down the Bible show.
What's your thoughts on that? I really feel that she should do a show here on Black Liberation Media breaking down the Bible. I think a Sunday sermon like that would be as phenomenal. The Jackie, first of all, it's like, how we get to that she Because, you know, on this show we ain't got enough time cuz, you know, Jackie can start flowing.
We ain't got enough time here on the Remus One show, but as in the Sunday, you just coming on breaking down the Bible for people? Oh my goodness, I think that would have be great. And then have different people on. I like it.
>> [snorts] >> You need a producer?
Oh, so here here's what I actually I I don't I don't know about breaking down the Bible specifically, but I am I am very interested in the path of life this using theology for revolutionary strategy, right? Because for as much as people might not like religion, might not like the Bible, might not like these are places of gatherings and these are places where there has been a lot of work done in order to support community, teach community, work within community, right?
>> [snorts] >> And so I am someone asked in the chat if I'm an atheist. I'm not an atheist. I am a non-practicing Catholic because Catholicism is a hot fucking mess.
>> [snorts] >> But I believe that there is something greater than me. That's the only way I can really think to to put it, right? I don't have a name for it. I don't really know how to how to how to call it or whatever.
I just [snorts] know I'm not I'm me is like this this singular thing that exists with no nothing outside of me that weighs in on my decisions and the things that happen to me on a day-to-day basis. I just don't believe that that's the case, but I don't really have a means to explain it.
So what I would love to see Jackie do is to get people to understand why the role of theology like that the role that theology has played in the history of resistance because I think that's something that people don't quite understand and don't often are not often able to really put together because they're so put off by religion and they're so PUT OFF BY >> [laughter] [snorts] >> SO, THAT'S I MEAN THAT'S THAT'S really just Fuck a show by the book.
>> [laughter] >> Fuck a show by the book and then we can have a show. Listen, I ain't mad at you, but I it really is therapy for a lot of people. A lot of people need therapy.
They need to find something outside of their self to hold power to bring power to their self and also just to try to get through day by day like listen, some other people did it. Let me see if I could do it, too. You know that's what history does. I believe history books for us and learning our history helps us to realize listen, people have been through some shit, but they pulled through. So, we can do the same. And we are at the end of the show, so let's find out what's coming up next.
Renee, Saturday, what we got coming up?
So, I know. And so, at noon today, we're going to be welcoming Laith Marouf from Palestine Free TV. I'm very excited to have that conversation. Leah, I've made notes about your questions. I promise you I wrote it down. I'll do my best.
Um on Saturday, we're going to welcome Lara. Her book released today from the clinic to the streets. If I can find it quickly enough, I'll drop it in the chat.
But, in addition to that because Lara has become a dear dear sister of mine, I want to wish her a very very happy birthday. Today is her birthday.
It coincided with the release of her book, which I think is like a nice little coincidence to put in place and I'm really excited for her. The book is awesome. I'll make sure I drop it in the chat. We'll be talking about it on Saturday with her. And I really just I love her to pieces. She's just she's just such a good person and I wish her a very very happy birthday.
All right, sounds great. All right, Jackie Luqman is coming up this Friday.
This Friday, I am going to talk about something I don't know yet. Okay. We'll be there for it.

I got to see what my schedule look like.
>> Is it 100 followers on Tik Tok or 1,000 followers to go live?
Uh, we would have to ask somebody like Amber who's young and does Tik Tok. We can ask the chat cuz niggers is They old.
Everybody watching this is not old. No.
All right, well, uh, thank y'all once Hold on. I [laughter] said that to say, like you get on Tik Tok and and and mix, dog. Like I I follow I don't even follow, but I encounter so many DJs.
Like everybody's spinning. I followed some great reggae DJs from Jamaica, from London and London town. And I'm like Air Doctor could be right up in this mix and I'd be wondering where is Knocka. So, We have to be at 1,000.
