Dr. Umar Talks Attack On Black Women, BBL's, Trans Kids, High Blood Pressure Crisis (Full Interview)

foreign TV Dr Umar right um first question I have is what do you believe are the primary contributing factors to the disproportionate maternal mortality rates amongst black women and what are the solutions maternal mortality in black women and I would also add infant mortality along with it because sometimes the mother dies sometimes the child dies sometimes they both die the question we gotta ask African people were on this planet by ourselves the Modern Man the modern African the homo sapien sapien the most recent of all the human stages we were on this planet Alone by ourselves for at least 50 000 years before we left the continent and went anywhere else at least 50 some would say as much as 150 000 years some would say long no matter what number you go with whether it's fifty thousand a hundred thousand a hundred and fifty thousand years black women had no problem having babies in ancient times in ancient times the infant mortality rate was known to be small how is it possible that the oldest human being in history the black woman been having babies for millennium babies for millennium all of a sudden she gets to America and she can't have a baby without the baby dying or herself dying I believe that this is intentional I think it's poor pre-made prenatal care I think it's also racism on the birthing table I think a lot of it has to do with these chemicals that they give out women to deal with pain and ease during the birthing I remember when my oldest daughter was born and they gave her mother epidural and they kept giving her epidural I said you might not want to take no more of that that stuff is going to mess with the baby heartbeat she took it anyway the next thing you know the doctor said we have to do a cesarean section tell you a story I'm gonna tell my go ahead we have to do a cesarean section there was no conversation about cesarean section until my daughter who was born on May 6 Martin Delaney's birthday grandfather pan-africanism until her mother took the epidural and if memory serves me correctly because that was 21 years ago but if memory serves me correctly they gave her at least two maybe even three Doses and then they went into the cesarean section I think they're doing it on purpose number one they get more money for the Cesarean section okay number two it gets them off the birthing table quicker because they take the baby out and descended the surgery to get an inside soul back up and of course they don't want to see more black children being born in the first place so that's the infant mortality but if I can get rid of the black woman herself the mother I don't have to worry about her having any more children what's more effective taking a child or taking the mother taking the mother because she's the nest she's the birther she can have more children and not only are they uh doing this mortality we also have to look at how a lot of black women postnatal post-birth are not able to get pregnant again because whatever they're doing inside of her when they deliver that child or post-cesarean section when they tie her back up so when we're dealing with that whole process of pregnancy through carrying it through birth there's a lot being done to the black woman that's contributing to her mortality and to the child's mortality and I think that we could also indict the birth control pills previous abortions some of these women were also taking the abortion shots some of them were also take in some of the abortion implants these hormonal devices that they put us out of our women's body that messes with their hormones I think all of this including diet and the prenatal pills that they give them I think all of this as well as the chemicals they inject in them on the delivery table I think all of this plays a role in the high mortality rate for expecting mothers but also the high infant mortality rate for black children as well and it's a mixture of capitalism and racism because what I noticed is that like in my personal experience with my wife is that um I spoke to Abdullah right and she was telling me a lot of times you can just change the position when the heart rate goes up with the child so it doesn't have to be this big uh promotion well I knows what my wife she was there just killing and he just came in and rushed everything no conversation they try to overwhelm you with this fear and there's no dialogue there's no information it's just you have the Russian dude as you said what do they get paid more to do so why wouldn't you do it absolutely and also I believe my youngest daughter's mother gave birth to her at a birthing center I know several doulas women who help women give natural births even in their home I met his sister the other day who birthed her own child I don't recommend that but nonetheless I think we need to look at more traditional modes of child birthing you know I know systems would go to Africa to birthday kids they say I'm having much out in Africa my ninth month I'm in Africa I'm gonna let the queen mothers in the village help me give birth to my child I think we need to go back to that I would I would much recommend a home birth or a birthing center you know in in the iron the irony of it the biggest difference between a traditional birth and a modern birth is with a modern birthday put you on a table you're laying vertically traditional birth you stoop down you see excuse me modern birth you're laying horizontally traditional birth is vertical you stoop and your hips loosen and they help pull the bait in other words gravity is to your benefit with a traditional African birth these white folks are putting us on tables so there's very little benefit of gravity I mean they tilt the table somewhat but it's not the same type of effect if you're stooping down the way you go to the bathroom to relieve yourself and I think black women need to recognize that the way in which you're having the child isn't conducive to the Natural flow of childbirth in the first place in a recent podcast I heard you say something which is very true but people don't want to hear it uh you said women who wear weaves are not at peace with themselves right I felt you should have added the men and people who are a part of this epidemic of cosmetic surgery a lot of times people uh the big thing is the BBL right but we approach it from a more humorous standpoint hahaha there's nothing funny about it when I see uh people with weaves when I see people with um uh the the the silicone and the bbls I see in the turmoil of course I see a lot of struggle where you are so displeased with yourself that you put yourself through the surgery of course there's nothing to be joked about I think we we joke about it too much and we criticize it too much from a more a comedy standpoint and we don't see the psychological impact or the psychological turmoil spiritual turmoil a person's experience it to do these things to themselves I would say as I've often said that people who are not at peace with themselves will often try to reinvent themselves from the outside in you can't reinvent yourself from the outside and you have to reinvent yourself from the inside out all this surgery cosmetic surgery men and women all this wig and weave and European hair color all of this are signs that the person wasting all this money on trying to look like a different person is not at peace with themselves they are not happy people you can't be happy people are not overly preoccupied with how they appear to others that is a mental illness to be that preoccupied with your physical appearance that everything else in your life takes a back seat and my biggest concern for my sisters and I love all of them you know whether they are artificial or real let me clarify that I love them if they are getting surgery not if they're changing their gender I got an issue with the whole uh childhood transgender movement but just sisters who are getting surgery to look more womanly my concern for them is when they become Elders when you get older you got artificial breasts you got artificial buttocks what is going to happen when you 70 years old what happens to those breasts when they get heavy and saggy what happens to those buttocks what happened to those packs inside your body when they begin to bust I don't think our black women are looking down the road long enough to life after their Prime when they are still going to have these artificial uh objects in their body are you going to get them surgically removed maybe they'll just get them surgically removed at that time I guess is there any research that discusses how toxic fake breasts are after a certain amount of time is there any research that addresses how toxic the butt injections or the butt implants are after a certain amount of time do black women even know whether these things are cancerous after a certain amount of time as we now know the fake hair to be I'm just concerned for the long-term health of black women and for those black women who are carrying a child how does that affect your ability to carry your child if you got a tummy tuck if you got liposuction if you got a part of your stomach taken out so you can only eat so much food so you don't get overweight again what about the baby if you got breast injections can you still breastfeed if you got breast implants can you still breastfeed I just think a lot of this artificial uh making over that black women are engaging in it's going to stop a lot of them from being effective mothers and be honest with you as a mother with an artificial body to a biological daughter what is the message you are sending your daughter at 12 and 13 when she see mom comes home with new fake breasts fake buttocks are you not teaching your daughter that what she has on her body effectually is more important than anything else she has and to me that's the message that black girls are getting how I look is far more important than who I am what I think and what I have to offer the world I think is a very dangerous message that's going out to men about black women but what about the psychological well as far as the psychological impact of it I believe the psychological damage is already done once you get on the table I think the psychological issues are impacted even further by the fact that after a certain amount of time a lot of these women are not even content with the new body they have because they don't understand how the mind works if you are not at peace with yourself it's because of something going on inside you transform the outside and after the honeymoon period of the new breasts and buttocks is over you still back to not feeling good about yourself so now you want to go back out and get some more surgery I.E Little Kim and I'm not picking on my sister Little Kim but from what I understand from her history she was psychologically abused by her father and I don't know her whole life but I saw a documentary speaking to how little Kim was psychologically abused by her father and I believe that that played a big role in why she underwent so much surgeries Little Kim was beautiful Little Kim didn't need any surgery she was a drop dead gorgeous woman she didn't need the surgery but because of what was done to her by her father I believe and I could be wrong just with the limited information that I have I believe that had a lot to do with why little Kim went on the slicing table and I think that has a lot to do where why a lot of black women go on the slicing table being rejected by men mistreated by men abandoned by their parents a riddle cued for their physical appearance Michael Jackson is a good example Michael Jackson is the best male example of surgery being performed on your external self for problems going on in the internal self Michael Jackson was robbed of his childhood Michael Jackson was physically abused by his father Michael Jackson often spoke of how his peers would talk about his big nose Michael Jackson was traumatized by his own people for how he looked and as a result of that he desecrated himself physically it's the same thing black women are doing someone made them feel insecured and unvalued as who they were and so they now seeking to reinvent themselves artificially on the surgeon's table and it's a very dangerous thing to do and uh we spoke about the physical we have the psychological and the last thing people listening need to know about is the financial burden a lot of these surgeries are done through credit are done through credit I wasn't aware that so many surgeries are dumped through credit but I tell you something I experienced recently I was in the airport in the Dominican Republic coming back from Guadalupe and I didn't get a chance to venture out into the community it was only the airport but I had like a four hour layover and every woman who passed me was voluptuous it took me a minute to catch on but I'm like every woman is curd soup I mean the best bodies you ever see in your life it didn't just hit me and I text one of my female Associates and I said where do most surgery get done as she mentioned the Dominican Republic is one of the top destinations for the surgery because it didn't hit me at first he said wait a minute all these women are just super all they work I mean the Dominican Republic they just born like this then I said wait a minute this might be a surgery place and that's when I found out that it was you know but a lot of them will sacrifice they sacrifice you know they put up they save their money A lot of them are middle class black women who can afford it as you said some of them are sisters who struggle financially and they do it through credit or they do it through whatever they got to do to get that money up you know and it's just a shame it's just a shame that we as black people have become so spiritually famished that we now feel that we have to desecrate our bodies in order to feel better about ourselves you see it with the childhood transgender movement these young children and of course in California sexual reassignment surgery is totally legal you have children out here uh Dwyane Wade's son and others getting sexual surgery to reinvent themselves in the opposite sex before they even old enough to responsibly make that kind of a permanent decision for themselves and we as black people are overlooking the fact that this childhood transgender movement which was refueled by President Barack Obama while he was in office is nothing other than a form of genocide and extermination when a boy decides to get sexual reassignment surgery to become an artificial woman he castrates himself they remove his testicles from his scrotum this is no different than the white man hanging the black man in reconstruction America we are now voluntarily castrating ourselves when they take your testicles out of your scrotum they can't put them back they're never having children ever when the girl undergoes sexual reassignment surgery to become an artificial man they remove her ovaries she's never ovulating again she's never getting pregnant why as we why are we as black people allowing our children to make permanent decisions about their ability to reproduce this is not just a decision about whether you want to be a girl or whether you want to be a boy no this is a decision about your capacity to reproduce yourself when you become an adult once they reassign you they castrate and sterilize you reproduction is over in black people so caught up in the LGBT Crusade are not seeing the fact that this is not about lgbtq this is about the genocide of African people disguised as childhood transgender and then there's another point pedophilia the pedophiles are active supporters of the lgbtq movement why why do the pedophiles care about lesbians bisexuals homosexuals and transgenders if I am a pedophile I don't want to go to jail I'm a celebrity I'm famous ritualistic sex is what we do with kids it's part of our demonic culture I want pedophilia to become normal I want it stricken from the criminal code altogether I'm going to push lgbtq because if a child is old enough to decide that they want to live their life as the opposite gender if a child is old enough to decide I want permanent sexual reassignment surgery if a child is old enough to decide I never want to have children take my testicles take my ovaries if a 8 9 10 11 year old child is old enough to make those three decisions how can you argue that they're not old enough to decide to have sex the argument of the pedophile is going to be backed up by this LGBT Crusade against our children because in their sick minds they are rationalizing the argument before the courts if he's old enough to say I don't want my testicles if she's old enough to say I never want to have children if he's old enough to say I want to live my life as a girl if she's old enough to say I want a little life as a boy and I don't care about having kids and she can say this at 12 is she not also old enough to decide when she's ready to have sex that is going to be the argument that the pedophiles are going to take into court and unfortunately although I don't agree with it I think they're going to win the argument dbtq is the mass the pedophile movement wears to get their agenda pushed and lgbtq is the mass genocide wears to depopulate the world of African people please speak about a comedian just hilarious who has been receiving a lot of backlash for her comments where she stated uh I'm not quoting directly but the gist is that trans women are not biologically the same as women I stand with my sister Jess hilarious I'm glad she took the stand because so many black women are afraid to speak up first of all I want to make sure people understand what I perceive to be the clear threat in this instance and I don't know if you can remember about a year ago I was on Foxhole uh with the Tammy Mac Show and she had a conversation on black male female relationships it was myself and another biological male it was a biological female and the other person who I thought was a biological female was a artificial woman meaning he's a biological male Tammy Mack nor her producers warned us that it would not be two women two biological women into biological men she snuck the transgender in and didn't tell us why would a black woman be having a biological male AKA artificial woman discussing women's issues black women's issues as if he were a woman I said then that black women better stand up and speak out against this because the American white power structure is engineering a situation where the natural voice of the biological black woman will be permanently silenced and replaced with artificial women biological men who will be standing in and speaking as if they're real black women and the threat in this is the fact that what really matters to black women will never be discussed in a public forum because the government can control The Narrative of the black woman by using these biological men disguised as women so with just what just hilarious doing is important it's critical that it gets done we're not going to allow her to get canceled she's doing the right thing a biological man can never be a biological woman he will never get a Menses his breasts will never develop milk he will never carry a child last time I checked women have an XX chromosome men have an XY if I'm not mistaken it doesn't matter how much sexual reassignment surgery you get you will never have a double X chromosome men cannot be women they can only be made to look like them women cannot be men they can only be made to look like them but here's the difference I don't really see biological women living as artificial men trying to speak for black men I don't see that I'm seeing biological men living as artificial women trying to speak for black women and I think the reason why this agenda is in play is black women unfortunately not because there's anything wrong with her but because of the oppression of black men she's the leading political voice the black woman is the most educated in our community the black woman is the most financially stable in our community so from the perspective of the white power structure the way that they're seeing we've already neutralized black men as much as we can for now we now got to work on these black women who are becoming increasingly more militant and politically conscious they they see the woke black woman as a threat now they used her to subdue the man now we got to subdue her so what we're going to do is use these artificial women these biological men despise the squat disguise as black women and we're going to let them be the mouthpiece so we can control the narrative I hope sisters recognize how important what just hilarious is doing you cannot let the white power structure silence your voice and replace you with biological men disguised as women the last point I want to say on this issue with just hilarious as it relates to the racist agenda to replace the authentic biological black woman's voice with an artificial biological man's voice disguised as a black woman black women have to take some responsibility for this because black women many of them were open proponents of homosexuality black women thought it was cute they thought it was funny they have black male friends they hang out with black gay men the reason black women got to be held partially responsible for this transgender issue where they want to silence their voice with an artificial woman's voice is if you supported homosexuality as much as black women did you you allow black men to go to the edge of the diving board now he wants to jump off the diving board into the water he says I no longer want to just be gay or act as a woman I want to live as a woman that's the leap that was made from homosexuality to transgender so although I'm standing in solidarity with my black queens I need them to understand your help give birth to this biological man reborn as artificial black woman phenomena that the government is now going to try to use to silence your voice black women helped encourage this move they didn't know it would lead to this but I need them to see how not looking long enough or being Visionary enough looking at the long-term consequences of the stuff that we support you actually provided the momentum for the transition from homosexual to artificial woman I think the reason a lot of black women were comfortable with black gay males is number one they accepted them the black gay male was able to understand them in a way that they wish the heterosexual black male would black women have a need to be accepted and honored by black men for women who could not get that from a heterosexual they substituted it socially for the homosexual in other words a black woman wants a close relationship with her father she can't find a black man to have that type of intimacy with not sexually but psychologically but the gay black male can do that for her the black woman needs a man to talk her issues through she can't talk about the rape with her dad he don't understand she can't talk about the molestation with her brother or her uncle she can do it with the gay black man so I believe the gay black man for the black woman became a substitute upon which she could thrust a lot of her internal issues that she never felt comfortable with enough discussing with heterosexual male and it's not the fact that he's gay it's the fact that he can take a perspective better because he's trying to be her can black Americans effectively Implement Mutual Aid societies to improve their Collective Financial social and health status that's a great question can the American African create beneficial Mutual Aid societies to improve ourselves economically politically socially and otherwise absolutely the oldest Mutual Aid Society in American African history was founded in Philadelphia and it was founded by Richard Allen the father of the AME Church in Absalom Jones and it was called the free African society free African society where blacks during the Revolutionary period came together with their money and financed their cemeteries Finance care for their Elders Finance schools Finance churches Finance life insurance this is Black Wall Street before Black Wall Street and this is doing slavery and it started in Philadelphia but it was widespread it went all over the country it is nowhere you could find black people before the Garvey era the 1920s who did not belong to or was not benefited by black self-help organizations or Mutual Aid societies as you mentioned in fact one of my pan-africanist forefathers by the name of Alexander krummel who is a pioneering black social worker although he was not trained as a social worker he was a pioneering black social worker he was also the first black man to start a intellectual Society for our community he was the mentor of the W.E.B DuBois and he was one of the most pioneering and Innovative black social workers we had he went around the country helping black communities build Mutual Aid societies the question we got to ask ourselves since we come from a history of self-help organizations going back to the 1700s in Richard Island and Absalom Jones why don't we have any today where are the mutual Aid societies today because the black church is no longer a mutual Aid Society even though many of the mutual Aid societies began in the black church think about it if you don't pay into that church and pay into that church a lot they may not they will not bury you a lot of churches have no life insurance programs a lot of churches have no program for the homeless churches used to give out food if you were hungry a lot of churches don't even do that anymore so the black church has completely failed us but even going outside of the black church you don't see a lot of mutual Aid societies because black people have gotten comfortable with government handouts and I believe that it was an intentional strategy of the government to create the New Deal and other social service programs which they copied from the black community like free breakfast and Free Medical Care at the Black Panther Party partially engineered picking up from where Marcus Garvey The Honorable Marcus Garvey left off I think the government deliberately overtook the social service programs so black people would get dependent on the government no longer self-sufficient so they could control our destiny in our communities if we still had mutual Aid societies I'm not sure there's black poverty at all and if there was it would definitely be much more manageable than it is now one of the things I want to do once the Frederick Douglass Marcus Garvey Academy is done we're going to start a self a help Society a mutual Aid Society because there's so much we can do as a people on our own and by ourselves and we need to get back to that Marcus Garvey Richard Island pan-africanist do for self model and uh how's the progress with the screen going where we at right now our electric is completely done inspected and approved our plumbing is completely done inspected and approved our sprinklers are completely done inspected and approved our burglar alarms fire alarm system completely done inspected and approved the gym is completely done the only thing left now is we got two HVAC splits that got to be replaced in the data room in the computer room in the school and we have some air distributor covers and air recycler covers in some of the classrooms that got to be replaced once that's done I'm calling the city of Wilmington to see when we can get a certificate of occupancy over the last decade especially during covet schools have struggled with finding teachers uh now I understand schools can't find principles uh why are people avoiding leadership roles in public schools why are people avoiding leadership roles in public schools I would say that the move by Educators and principals away from the schoolhouse predates covet I would say covid has probably intensified that Exodus out of the Schoolhouse by principals and teachers I also think during the covid quarantine period so many opportunities arose for educators to become homeschoolers themselves that a lot of them saw that they could make more money homeschooling five or six children in their basement than they could being a full-time teacher in a public school we also have to keep in mind that a lot of educators are not original Educators they came to the schoolhouse out of a need for employment you know they were laid off from Corporate America they were laid off from the private sector so they came into the school simply to find an Economic Opportunity there was no love or commitment there for our children and so I would argue that once a better hustle comes along they take it so they were never in love with educating black kids in the first place you know it's unfortunate because you even have black Educators and principals leaving the school as well now if they were leaving to build their own independent black schools that would be a positive thing some of them are but many are finding employment in other sectors and it's hard to criticize them because I know how difficult it can be when you care to teach or to lead in a public school in this country and that's what I learned that those who really care don't stay yeah it's tough because and and also they get overlooked a lot for higher level positions so when I was with the school district of Philadelphia and of course I hear about this across the country other districts I've worked with and professionals I work with if you are a good teacher and you're black it works against your professional advancement because they want to keep you in the classroom whereas a white person will come in with not even having half of your experience and after two years they're downtown making three times as much money as you and you're trapped in the school because you are good at what you do so they want to keep you there forever so unfortunately it's difficult for good black principals and good black teachers to get promotions for that reason they send the white people downtown because they know they don't care so they give them ironically the better administrative job and they trap you in the schoolhouse that's not fair but the bigger question for the black teacher in the black principle why have you not organized and come together to build an independent black Educators Union we don't have one and I'm not aware of there ever having been a movement away from the American Federation of teachers away from the National Education Association to build an independent black teachers union we have independent black unions for almost every profession teaching is one of America's oldest profession the only thing older is the preacher the church because the church gave birth to education why haven't black teachers and principals come together to build their own Union and I think the biggest reason why is we're comfortable being led by white folks even though the teachers unions do not fight for black teachers the way they fight for white teachers you regularly see black teachers get fired for reasons you will never see a white teacher get fired but it's kind of like the Democratic party as long as we have something and it's led by white people we feel comfortable with the get along to go along uh what will be the future of public education in America with the situation well I think the future for public education was Dire even before covid and even before the mass Exodus of Educators and principals Charter Schools were founded to defund public schools now you even have the voucher system which is also founded to defund Public Schools the problem with the elimination of public school and let's let's keep in mind that most Americans are not in support of tax dollars going towards public education and the reason for that is because the U.S Constitution does not mention the word education it does not give anybody's child a right to learn so many people are wondering why am I paying money for a service that my Constitution doesn't require most white people who have children those children go to private schools so Democrats and Republicans are interested in shutting down the United States Department of Education which has only been around since the 80s and if they had it their way it would be going tomorrow the problem though is America's false reputation around the world that suggests she's a leader in education and since most people see education as the passport to a better future how can America be in the so-called land of the free and the birthplace of democracy how can she be against public education it doesn't look right for America's image so from a foreign relations agenda from an international relations agenda America has to find a way to get rid of public education free public ad without affecting their image abroad that's number one domestically the biggest issue with eliminating public school is what do you do with millions of white women who make up the teaching core these are voters and these are donors how do you eliminate education when these women are the people you need at The Ballot Box in November no politician wants to be in office when public school gets destroyed because I can guarantee you whether you're a Democrat a Republican or anything in between if you are a governor a mayor a council person a State Rep a U.S Congress person when public school is destroyed you will not be getting reelected Florida has a new standard that will teach black people benefited from slavery because it was a useful skills uh what useful skills are they referring to that agenda by Governor DeSantis this new Florida state mandate educational curriculum requirement that the enslavement of African people be treated as if it was a benevolent institution that afforded us some useful skills is absolutely disrespectful it is outright untrue uh it is an insult to African people and I'm not surprised that they're doing this because one thing about white people when they smell blood they go for the kill and America is more anti-black today than any time since the 1960s so if black people are going to stand by and let white people trample all over their self-respect and their dignity and their human rights that's exactly what they're going to do but I also think we have to keep an eye on the White House because I find it interesting that President Joe Biden hasn't said much or done much about this although education is not a federal right it is not a constitutional right but it is a state right and as a state right the federal government has an obligation to make sure the 14th amendment's equal protection Clause is upheld wherever the states guarantee a right to a free education so I am of the position that the slanderous inclusion of slavery as having been beneficial because it taught skills which is easily refutable as an untruth I believe that that could be fought against I believe that that could be struck down because it is harmful and it is dangerous to teach that to black children in fact it does the very thing that the 1954 Brown versus Board of Education Supreme Court decision sought to undo and that was to eliminate the harm caused to black children by segregation now you have harm being caused the black children by virtue of this new mandated curriculum so I'm wondering why the justice department I'm wondering why the Secretary of State I'm wondering why President Joe Biden himself has not taken this up as a 14th Amendment issue in fact what the president could do with the stroke of a pen is tell Governor DeSantis and any other governor in America where there is a law that forbides the teaching of slavery or racism if this is what you want to do if you want to teach that slavery was beneficial because it taught skills then guess what we're going to cut all your federal funding we're going to cut your special ed money we're going to cut your title one money we're going to cut your JROTC money we're going to cut all of your federal money because this is discriminatory education which is not allowed under the 14th Amendment equal protection Clause do you believe there's a possibility of the standard uh becoming Nationwide in the future I do I think there's a possibility of the standard becoming Nationwide we already have a growing standard where states are not allowing slavery to be taught and they're not allowing racism to be taught so you already see that the climate is already there as far as I'm concerned it's pretty much a standard anyway but again I believe that the Democratic party is co-signing this Behavior but not pushing back with threats uh with regard to elimination of federal funding their funds should be snatched if this is what they want to do please tell me what hostile personality disorder is and why you believe is a key contributor to the crisis of high blood pressure amongst black people in America hypertension is a big issue it's a top 10 killer for black people hostile personality disorder in my opinion is an outgrowth of that hypertension and it speaks to the tension in the anger and the negativity that in hostility that black people have towards one another I think a lot of times when we see each other when we engage each other when we conversate with each other we do so with an expectation of disrespect we do so with an expectation of disagreement we do so with an expectation of Confrontation so when black people disagree with each other automatically our blood begin to boil our pressure begins to rise because that environment is one that we've seen so many times lead to conflict and Casualty and I think there's a lot of brothers and sisters out there who are contributing to their very own high blood pressure by constantly walking around with this hostile personality disorder that I don't think is necessary uh if you have to go to war then your body will be prepared to go to war at that moment but I don't think you should walk around with the expectation and presumption that if you have to have a disagreement with a black person it can't be respectful and that it has to lead to conflict so I think hostile personality disorder is a big problem in the black community and it's wild because I remember growing up I grew up in East Orange right and I just remember that reflecting on my youth I couldn't be nice for survival purposes in that environment it's like if you're nice it's like you're targeted in a sense so you have to have a certain level of hostility to survive in these environments that speaks to the lack of community you know that's why we call them hoods because we don't have neighborhoods if we had a neighborhood you can be yourself if we had a neighborhood you could be at peace with people you could wear your real skin your real personality your real disposition but I see this in the schools with the children with the nicest of children have to act tough they have to act hostile they have to act like they're big and bad because if I don't somebody may try me so we do have an issue in society in general but particularly in our uh Community because that's what we're speaking of where black people children in particular feel like I gotta act like I'm Tougher Than Leather so nobody will bother me and I think that's a shame because that also contributes to the release of cortisol and other hormones in the body that contribute to high blood pressure weakened immune systems and all types of other issues that anger that low-grade contextual anger and anxiety that black people carry with them on a regular basis I believe is an underrated contributor to the disease culture we have the cancer culture that we have and of course the negative interactions and relationship culture that we have as well poverty is the fourth leading cause of death in America do you see the poverty situation improving or getting worse for black people in America poverty will only get worse for black people I think it's going to get worse for everyone but when America catches a cold we get the flu we have to understand poverty is absolutely essential for capitalism to survive in order for capitalism to survive you've got to have a large exploitable population of free laborers if there's no broke people to slay for the corporations the corporations can't get rich the whole idea behind capitalism is you make people work for pennies while you rake in millions and because of that for that reason there will always be poverty but the reason it's going to grow now more than ever in the past is number one we have artificial intelligence coming and with artificial intelligence you're going to see the elimination of a lot of jobs that otherwise help black people take care of their bills I read recently McDonald's laying off thousands of people Walmart laying off thousands of people Microsoft laying off thousands of people Google even laid off thousands of people so when I look at artificial intelligence and when I look at the advance of Technology it appears that it's going to lead to an Ever shrinking a smaller uh market for employment and so I think black people need to really start thinking about this right now and get ahead of it before it's too late and I also think this poverty is being engineered as well because poverty is one of the most effective weapons you can use to keep down population to keep up crime uh to keep up political disorganization uh impoverished communities are rarely effective politically rarely because why they're overly consumed with their day-to-day needs being met so I think a lot of it is being engineered you know in the black community in particular we know that they came into our community and destroyed the economic Foundation the industrial Building Trades back in the 1970s they induced the poverty to give rise to the mass incarceration system in a single parented female headed household so I think a lot of it is engineered but most of it is a byproduct of capitalism and one of the things I try to get black people to see and to understand capitalism only worked because they had a 500 years year Head Start through our enslavement slavery was the original capital we were the original investment we was the original stock so of course capitalism looks good because you're not looking at it from the perspective that it got a 500 year hit start by Free Labor of African people capitalism is not a system for Humanity why would you want individuals to dominate the economy that everybody has to use in order to live capitalism is exploitation and poverty is one of its side effects statistics say black women in America are five times more likely to get an abortion than other groups which I feel is wrong uh but people who are anti-abortion usually approach the issue from a moral standpoint do you believe abortion in the black community is viewed as a moral issue or a political issue both I think abortion in the black community is viewed as both a moral issue and a political issue for me it's more about the politics than the morality because when you view it from a moral perspective that leads to condemnation and it leads to judgment and I don't think that really benefits us as a people um it is not my place to tell a woman what to do with her body but at the same time as Africans we are fundamentally a pro-life people because we understand that when you give birth that is The Reincarnation of an ancestor that is a Life coming to this world with a specific purpose given to it by the Supreme almighty God so we have to look at it from the spiritual perspective you're actually stopping the destiny of the universe and the destiny of the black race by aborting that child with that being said if you have a young sister who doesn't have any family support you have a young sister who's uh the father of a child isn't interested in being there he don't want the child you have a young sister dealing with poverty and people are constantly telling her that you don't want to have a baby this early and then you look at the reality that young mothers tend not to graduate high school on time if at all they often tend not to graduate college if at all now we all know dozens of black women who achieved inspire light of but there's so many thousands more who did not but I think we have to look at the fact that we have aborted over three million babies since the 1970s I mean we have to look at the fact that Margaret Sanger and Planned Parenthood International and her Negro Project were all part of the American Eugenics crusade to get rid of black life well it's no secret that 75 percent of Planned Parenthood abortion centers are located within close proximity to Black communities even when you look at what Planned Parenthood is doing in the Caribbean what they're doing in Africa if you look purely at the numbers I heard Amos Wilson Dr Amos Wilson once said black people have severe case of myopia right a lot of things we say are not there are here we just don't see them uh for example many programs and businesses people black people say that we need are there but they don't support them what's your thoughts about the shout out to Dr Amos Wilson I think he was the greatest black psychologist in American history and I think he was the most relevant black scholar of the second half of the 20th century and like myself uh he was a doctor of Clinical Psychology and a garveyite pan-africanus I do believe that we have many institutions and businesses that are not getting the support that they should as black people complain about the need for them but at the same time when we're talking about the critical institutions the banks the hospitals the schools the supermarket the distribution and Manufacturing I don't believe we have nearly as much as we should you know for example you take the hospitals we owned and controlled over 500 hospitals in American history that's nearly one per year you can hardly find them now we only have about a handful of black hospitals Independent Schools truly independent that operate inside of a Traditional School building not in somebody's basement or kitchen table you're probably looking at three dozen uh if you look at truly black owned Banks you probably may have about two or three dozen of those so when you look at the critical institutions we do have black Farmers but we don't have a network in a relationship between the black farmers and the black communities the to get their produce out to us and of course we don't have the supermarkets to sell that produce on a regular basis so when you're talking about the critical institutions the schools the banks the hospitals the supermarkets the manufacturing and distribution we are at a significant loss for those things they're institutions that matter most we are at a loss for them now we have restaurants and barber shops and we need restaurants and barber shops but they're not critical institutions why because you can get your hair cut at home you can cut your own hair I cut my own hair I've been doing it since high school because we was trained to do so at my high school so you can live without a beauty salon you know women can do hair in the house you can live without a restaurant you can cook your own food in the house so you know although those are they're good to have their good conveniences they're not Necessities hospitals save lives Banks invest and build communities supermarkets you know build the family build the body take care of the dietary nutritional needs schools prepare the children uh manufacturing provide our people with their daily Necessities distribution provides jobs and allow black people to get the things that they need around the planet uh when it comes to critical institutions we are at a significant loss after years of observation right I've come to the conclusion that sports are destroying our young black Brothers making them delusional depressed and hopeless um I've seen this trend where you have a lot of teenagers who are not even on the team but they have this idea that they're going to college they're going to go to the league I see a lot of young men who are in 25 to 25 to 30 years old still saying they're trying to get to the league um during this period now they're not developing any skills to provide for themselves or Society also uh what you know about parents living through their child which contributes to it and uh which I know you're going to talk on the amount of tension given to athletes what are your views about the relationship with sports in the black community I think that sports are over emphasized in the black community and I think this ties into a legacy coming from slavery where black men and black women were there our worth was determined on our physical attributes and to a large extent it's still the same way now if you are an athlete the way in which your worth is determined is identical to the way in which the worth of an enslaved African was determined it was your output your strength how fast you could work you look at the NFL combine you look at the NBA workouts as nothing but a slave plantation the only difference is you're being paid money but the power differential between a slave and the slave master and the power differential between the NBA player and the NBA owner or the NFL player in the NFL owner is the exact same as the power differential between the slave and his master the only difference is they are given money that allows them to live a comfortable life outside of the plantation but beyond that it is the same thing as slavery they don't have no voice they're afraid their timid their behavior is strictly controlled it is slavery and the only reason why we don't see professional sports since slavery is because the amount of money that they make and that's because we equate money with power money is not power money buys you access power gives you the ability to control outcomes these athletes do not control outcomes and most of them don't even control their own lives I also think that we have to look at the fact that the black community overvalues Sports and Athletics and we undervalue academic Excellence the child who gets straight A's and B's the child who's mentally gifted the child who Aces SATs the child who's in the top one percent smartest children you know best reading scores math scores science scores language scores they will never get the attention of the basketball standout even if he's an academic failure they will never get the attention of a football standout even if he's an academic failure he could be failing three classes and he's still going to get a big trophy at the end of the year for helping him go to the playoffs or win the playoffs he may have no future after he leaves that school that year but because he won the championship got us a trophy we're going to put him on a pedestal but the kid who's likely to come up with a cure for cancer sitting right in his classroom is not even going to be mentioned and so we have to look at how we as a people have allowed Public School culture and black community culture to overvalue athletes and entertainers and undervalue our children who are academically excellent that's on us and then you have to look at the fact that our children don't have access to role models in those careers where they live the dentists don't live in our neighborhood the surgeon doesn't live in our neighborhood the engineer doesn't live in our neighborhood you barely find black teachers and black principals who live in a predominantly black neighborhood most of your black bourgeoisie your middle class is moving moving in to a white life so how are black children going to have access to role models that might make them think twice about wanting to be an athlete or Entertainer when they're not around they're going to gravitate to what they see and what do they see in their neighborhood aspiring rappers and aspiring inter entertainers and athletes and what do they see on the television rappers who made it and athletes who made it so whether they're outside on the street or in the house watching YouTube all they see is black men who overvalue Athletics and entertainment even though these are low potential careers and what I mean by that is the likelihood of you becoming rich or wealthy or being good enough in athletics and entertainment to live comfortably off it is very slim you have a greater chance of being struck by lightning than you do of becoming a professional athlete or Entertainer but no one's telling our children this and this is one of the reasons why I believe we need to bring the industrial building trade programs back into our communities because I do believe that even if he wants to be a rapper even if he wants to be a basketball player if he doesn't make it and he's a licensed plumber a licensed electrician a licensed welder a licensed auto mechanic a licensed HVAC contractor he can still live a decent life for himself but right now black boys and inner city schools are only given three options go into the military become an athlete or an Entertainer or go to jail and Umar I want to touch on three things before we move on first thing is this in regards to basketball I can speak about right I think they're about a quarter million High School boys seniors in the country you're only like a thousand something spots out of that thousand spots you have Juco players coming in that's probably going to take 200 or 300 yeah overseas players so let's just say there's 600 spots for a quarter million people most are not going to make it even if you get the spot you have to stay there there's no such thing as a four-year scholarship every year you have to renew based on your performance and basically your relationship with the coach at the end of the day right another one up part I want to touch on in defense of people who leave the neighborhood not single people but people with children they want to put their children in a different environment that's why it's kind of hard to stay especially if you have because I have conversations with my peers about this it's a hard decision to make do you want my child to grow up in the environment I grew up in or do I want my child to grow up in another environment they're pros and cons to both because if they don't grow up in my environment they're missing out on stuff but at the same time they're not being exposed to stuff then when you put them in a different environment Suburban white environment uh they're missing out on stuff but at the same they're exposed to stuff but they're not they're exposed to other stuff so it's like a two-aged sword in the sense you know here's what I would say if I had to make the decision between and I'm gonna start with school and go to community but if I had to make the decision between putting my child in a white private school versus a black inner city school I would probably go with the black inner city school the academics are going to suffer but I can supplement that myself at home but if I put my child in a white suburban school and they destroy my child's self-esteem he or she may never recover and I've actually seen this happen as a school psychologist where the self-esteem and the self-belief and the concept of our children were destroyed in a year's time at a white private school and sometimes the children never recover so for me I think it is safer from a psychological perspective for them to remain in the hood versus going to the suburbs now in terms of safety of my family it is a tough decision and I would not criticize a black person parents who took their children out of the ghetto and put them in a white suburb if they were actively trying to remake that ghetto into the community that it needs to be my issue is not so much about where you raise your children as it is about what is your commitment to creating the thriving black communities that we need to move out and turn your back on the black community that's an insult but if you say I'm moving out because I cannot afford for my daughter to be snatched up and I can't afford for my son to be murdered senselessly but I'm still in the community playing my role for the children and I'm doing whatever I can to fight against gentrification and homelessness and crime in in high school dropout I can respect that because although your family does not sleep in the hood you are still active in the hood I can respect like that but a lot of what I see are black families who abandon the black community totally once they get out into the white suburb and we got to keep in mind you can be abducted in the suburbs you're like you'd be abducted in the ghetto you can be killed in the suburb just like you can be killed in the ghetto so a black man and woman are safe nowhere in America but again I can understand that move to the suburbs for the babies I can understand it but you yourself should never abandon the community and I I respect that right there's a third thing I want to touch y'all but I have to jump back we spoke about the self-esteem in the suburbs I have seen personally I have witnessed this where the self-esteem has been destroyed being in the city when you're an intellectual person so it's a tricky situation so it's like you go there yes there may be a situation due to the uh racial Dynamic at the school that can really destroy your self-esteem but being in another environment where as we just spoke about academic Excellence is not praise but actually criticize and ridicued you also can have your self-esteem destroyed in that environment also I could see that I was one of those straight a kids you know I can remember jokes being made about me because of my tendency to excel in the classroom I wasn't the brightest but I was among the top of the students but the impact that had on me over the long run was minuscule compared to what could have happened to me when I lived in a white neighborhood I can remember one time uh when we did live in a white neighborhood and I remember I had white Playmates and I still remember I was in second grade and the white man came across the street and knocked on my door and told my father that he didn't want to see me near his children anymore I said remember to this day so let me compare the insults of my peers in the ghetto in the black North Philadelphia School okay and let me compare that to one time one time hearing this white man tell my father he didn't want to see me around his children anymore you know what affected me more as a child it was what that white man said to my father one time that weighed more heavily on me than all the insults of my peers put together at the end of the day I'm riding with the ghetto against the suburb all right and uh the third thing I want to text you on back to the sports was uh we didn't talk about parents right uh there's a very toxic culture Sports culture across the board and obviously we're included we're the parents themselves have a one-track mind for their child they're using a child for this meal ticket there are two things the parent is trying to relive their childhood through the child then the other aspect is the CH the parent is trying to get a meal ticket from the child I've seen that I see it all the time it's one of the biggest problems I think we have in the black community I remember one time getting a phone call from a father he said Dr Uma I need you to talk to my son I said why he said he's a gifted athlete he's about six foot five inches tall he could play basketball or football he could dominate whenever he gets on that field he can dominate but he has no interest in it he wants to be a barber I still remember the conversation I said what's wrong with him being a barber that man could end up owning 50 barber shops training black kids all over the country keeping them out of jail teaching them a livable skill donating money to community institutions what's wrong with him being a barber the problem was the father wanted to relive his academic dreams through his son and it's something I refer to as athletic abuse athletic abuse when a father or mother but it's usually the father because they didn't achieve what they wanted to achieve in the world of Athletics they now put that burden on their son who may not even be interested in being an athlete but because they want to please their dad they don't want to disappoint their father they get into football get into basketball get into baseball get into track get into boxing simply because they want to please they father and it's a very dangerous road because they can end up losing themselves and losing their father if they don't succeed or decide that they want to walk away at a certain point it's a very big problem in the black community um there's a little secret amongst athletes you know uh Athletics is what you want to call it a um what's the term to use machismo I don't know okay that that type of vibe but they don't really you have to be in the kind of circle to interact many athletes only played a sport for attention right okay because think about that average athlete he's kind of tall kind of odd looking kind of not normal in a sense right there's another aspect too Athletics was the only vehicle of approval and attention from their own parents or Guardian it can be so bad it can be and definitely a vehicle Athletics is a vehicle of attention and approval from peers particularly if you're not popular or if you're not in the In Crowd you know so if I go back to when I was in school I was just straight academic that was just me you know so I I really didn't care you know I had my friends and everything but I wasn't like part of the In Crowd if you would I was part of the academic nerdy crowd you understand um and I could see where some children may not have been self-assured as much as I was or let me get into this to see if I can earn some more stripes with the popular people in the school and I do agree with you that a lot of children do end up going into sports especially if they're good at it to try to attract a following to try to be uh initiated or accepted by those who get the respect in in the community and within the school but I think it's more more has to do with trying to please their father and build that relationship because for a lot of boys on 4 fortunately they may have a father who will only come see them when they're playing a game so this is my road to getting my father more involved in my life if he can't brag about me to his friends he may not see me so you know I think there's a lot of different ways in which that athletic abuse operates in that father-son relationship and sometimes mothers feel powerless about intervening because they do recognize that through Athletics you can learn a lot of a lot of lifelong traits and skills the teamwork the team building understanding how to live with loss and being humble in Victory Athletics can teach a lot it's very therapeutic if the coach has a mindset for developing the children but when a coat has a mindset that is all about wins and losses that coach can also uh end up being guilty of athletic abuse I've seen coaches destroy the self-esteem of children as much as I've seen fathers do it and when the father is the coach if I could if I could if I could be in charge fathers could not coach their own Sons unless they had a psychological evaluation it was deemed healthy enough to do it because there's nothing more tyrannical than to be an athlete with a narcissistic father as your coach who you got to go home with nothing is more tyrannical we recently interviewed a brilliant brother named Lawrence aija who spoke about the issue amongst black Elders across all Industries and walks of life not passing the Baton to the younger generation which has led to stagnation of growth and the discouragement and resentment amongst the younger generation uh have you witnessed this I have the black community suffers from a lack of intergenerational transfer of power and in order to understand why the black community struggles from this lack of intergenerational transfer of power you have to understand the castration of the black male's ego by the white power structure this also speaks to the earlier conversation on Sports and Athletics as well it's one of the only Vehicles where you can challenge a white person without them feeling threatened and being motivated by a need to seek revenge against you you know if you dunk on a white guy on the court it's okay if you tackle a white guy on a football field it's okay so only through Sports is black aggression if you would unbridled masculinity is actually celebrated it's the only place where it's celebrated where it is not feared or punished so when we come over to the sphere of black leadership you have that same type of situation where if I'm not used to having power if I'm not used to tasting power power and having Authority when I get some I never want to share it we have to realize that a lot of most black men have suffered from some form of psychological castration at the hands of the white power structure we are not allowed to maximize our god-given intellectual talents as a result of that when we come into the black community and we become preachers or leaders we can get so intoxicated with that Authority that we never want to share it or pass it down that's why you see so many black Elders in leadership positions not to say that we should ever throw our elders away as the quote goes we need Elders for wisdom young men for war so you don't toss the elders aside we continue to drink from their wisdom as the black men go out into war we need the elders to coach us through that battle so they are never to be discarded but in our community we have a situation where the elders are still the leaders 80 years old I'm the newly elected president 75 years old I'm the newly elected president 90 years old I'm still the face of my organization why hasn't this been passed down yet Elders are not interested in going to jail they're not interested in being Martyrs they no longer attract the energy and the attention of the youth so why does the black community have so many Elders because black men are Drunk on Power it is a problem that we have had for at least the last 60 or 70 years why do you have a million churches it's not because everybody's in love with Jesus why do you have a million masjids it's not because everybody's in love with Muhammad the problem is when that 25 year old Pastor comes back to the church after Seminary he's ready to get a couple sermons on Sunday but the senior pastor who's 60 70 years old no young man wait your turn but you can't let me do one just one no this is my church I built this church my grandfather gave me this church his grandfather gave me this church the same thing with our community-based organizations so the young man gets tired of waiting he leaves starts his own church and here's the irony in the Paradox when he gets to be 60 he's going to do exactly to the next young man what his Pastor did to him this is why we have old people running all the Civil Rights organizations old people running most of the religious organizations in our community we do not believe in training the youth because we don't want to be surpassed by the youth and there's another aspect to it we need to touch on is the fact that sharing of information it's like people purposely withhold information for the younger generation yes and they criticize them for their lack of information yes I've seen it you see it in the black Consciousness Community uh where Brothers don't necessarily want to share what they know because what they know is their egotistical claim to fame so if I normalize this information I'm no longer special and that's how you can tell who's really sincere about the freedom struggle and who's not so if I look at my work I give it all out I'm going to teach you everything that I know so you can take this and teach it to the next Generation it's not about being special it's about being effective but we got to keep in mind black men and black women come into the black Consciousness Community or the community Grassroots struggle for personal reasons not Community reasons okay people start churches not because they want to help people not most of the time they do it because they want to help themselves you see that and when you are serving your ego and you're not serving the people it will show because if you're serving the people if someone better than you comes along you will gladly include them you may not pass the Baton but they have a seat at your table now because the people can benefit from this young man and this young woman if you're serving the people but if you're serving your ego and you are in this Pro primarily to be worshiped and celebrated and adored anyone with a stronger skill set than you is automatically a threat and they become the enemy and you've seen this through history we've had black leaders who've been assassinated over ego and people feeling threatened over their right to be the face on a particular movement not only in America you've seen this in Africa you've seen it in the Caribbean islands where the understudy or the next in line takes out the leader because they're tired of waiting and they want to be next so you know that ego of the black man is something that has to be studied uh and I think that those of us who are in leadership positions we have to guard against it within our own person and then we also have to guard against it around the people who are around us I know for me the brothers who I work with I'm always studying them to see whether or not they are here for the the people or whether they are here because they want power and authority you should only be here because you want what's best for black people Abraham Lincoln and I'm not a fan he was a racist but Abraham Lincoln says something that I do agree with and he said quote anybody can withstand adversity he said that's not the true Measure of a Man he said the true Measure of a Man is whether or not they know how to effectively use power he said give a man power and that's when you really see what his true character and integrity are is it realistic to expect a politician to do things for an unorganized group I'm not saying organized organized group that has not funded their campaigns is it realistic to expect politicians to do something beneficial for a disorganized constituency I have two answers on the one hand I would say yes because if you are a sincere Freedom Fighter for your people if you really sought office to improve the conditions of African people whether they are organized or disorganized you should struggle for them you know I look at Dr King I look at Malcolm they were not politicians but they struggled for their people I look at Coleman Young the mayor of New York City I look at Adam Clayton Powell U.S congressman from New York their people were disorganized but they still struggle for them Harold Washington out of Chicago he still struggled for them so I don't think it is an ex I don't I cannot accept the excuse that the reason I'm not serving my people is because they're not organized enough to finance my campaign or protect me from ridicule and slander from white folks who will see my work on behalf of the community as a threat I cannot accept that because a man should be a man at all times it's just like when people ask me about Barack Obama they say well what could he have done he could have spoke up to your conditions that's what he could have did the by at the end of the day are you a man or are you not period because a man is going to do what's right all the time not just when it's beneficial or convenient for him my other answer is it realistic for black people to expect a politician to do for them if they're not organized and don't Finance the campaign it's not realistic at all we do not have the type of black men and women in public office we have 50 60 70 years ago we don't have them anymore we have people who are self-serving very scared of white folks and they are not willing to stick their neck out for black people at all unless they sure that net can come back to them so I think black people have better recognized that understand that and to some extent I'm a little defensive of the politician from the perspective of why should he or she risk it all for a group of people who doesn't value them enough to come together organize and finance what's going on in order for electoral politics to be benefit official for African people we have to organize and we have to weaponize our money and our votes until we select who we want to represent us and finance their campaigns black elected officials will never benefit black people never you'll never get black people in office to do the job we need them to do until we select them and finance them ourselves but that's a conversation we don't want to have because black people are not interested in becoming economically responsible in the interest of their Liberation we will pray we will March we will vote but don't you ever ask me to use my money for the collective best interest of black people we don't do that that is our Eternal weakness and that is why we are so effectively exploited financially by other groups the black dollar is the easiest dollar to get in America because it is not partial to the man who owns it the black dollar is colorblind no other Dollar in America is colorblind the Jewish dollar is racist the AR is racist the Latino dollar the Anglo-Saxon dollar is racist the Native American dollar is racist what I mean by that their money is partial to their community and does not like to touch the hand of anyone outside that Community but the black dollar easiest dollar to get it is not partial it is not racist it is not biased to black people how can your money not be partial to your interests that is insane but that is exactly why we're dealing with economic Devastation in the black community please speak about the Carly Russell disappearance situation Carly Russell had a situation a few weeks ago maybe just two where allegedly she pulled over saw a little kid walking called her parents I believed in called the police and said there's a kid here she got out the car next thing you know she went missing she reappeared a couple of days later I believe they saw a camera so her walking home from what I hear allegedly her story didn't add up just the other day her parents she confessed through her parents that she made the whole thing up the police also stated that the whole thing was manufactured she could be uh facing charges I hope she don't face charges I hope she don't go to jail I don't ever want to see a black woman in a prison what I do want sister Carly to understand because she's only like 25 she's a baby but what I do want her to understand you cannot play with abduction in kidnapping with black women according to the United States government 250 000 women were kidnapped in America in 2020. this is covet 250 000 of those two hundred and fifty thousand forty percent or more than a hundred thousand of them were black women black women are only 13 of the American population how can 13 of the American population represent 40 percent of kidnappings and abductions my Pointer Sister Carly is by you playing with this abduction thing as it relates to black woman you are giving the white racist media in the white races American power structure the prerogative to spin a narrative that says black women are not being abducted as much as we say most of them are falsely claiming to have been kidnapped and they are not they can use Carly Russell's situation and other black women who have done the same it's only been a few and use this as a campaign as your sister Candace Owens is doing to make it look like the kidnapping and sex trafficking of black females is being exaggerated it is not being exaggerated in fact it's being underreported because a lot of them who go kidnapped or abducted are never reported at all so I'm saying to Sister Carly she owes an apology to black women for what she did because you are fueling a machine that Coons like Candace and the white power structure are using to undermine the abductions of black women see in Carly's situation the whole black community came to her Aid everybody was posting her on their page I posted her on my page I haven't seen a kidnapped black woman get that much media attention in a long time if ever so it hurts the pride of the black community that the person we did this for turned around to be an imposter who fabricated the whole situation to get attention from her soon-to-be baby daddy allegedly so Carly did us a great disservice with this and the fact that it got national news media attention made it all the more worse because now this is going to undermine the next black woman who is actually kidnapped abducted or sex trafficked I need black women not to play with your safety I want to say this though I have to say this if Carly is guilty Carly owes us an apology Carly needs to get involved as an activist in black female sex trafficking and childhood abductions but we have not yet heard from Carly we've only heard from Carly through her parents until I hear from Carly directly I must keep the option open that there's a very strong possibility she was kidnapped but because of the outcry for her return she was allowed to return under the threat of death or punishment if she reveals any details about what happened I'm only saying that because I'm not understanding why we haven't heard from her at all we haven't even seen her except for the alleged video camera footage of her coming back home so until we see her I must entertain the possibility that this was an actual kidnapping and that Carly was returned because those involved didn't want to get exposed but she's being forced to uh confess untruthfully that she was kidnapped in order to protect her life in the life of her family I have to keep that option alive until I hear from her please talk about how the immigration laws passed in Florida will impact the economy and African-American employment the immigration situation in my opinion currently is being pushed by the white power structure because they want to use the immigrants to replace black people I've been saying this for about five years maybe even longer but when Joe Biden said when he got elected that he wanted to fast-track four to eight million illegal immigrants to American citizenship as quickly as possible I believe he I believe that was the writing on the wall then the Democratic party is tired of depending on black people's votes they are tired of being painted as the black party because they're not they don't care about blacks but they have to act like they do at election time to get those votes so what are they going to do we've got the ukrainians we got the afghanis we got the ill lingo Mexicans we also have the South American migrants coming in and we're going to try to fast-track them to citizenship as quickly as possible before November of 2024 so we don't have to rely on the black vote as much we can now go after the migrant vote that's what's happening why would the federal government allow the governor of Florida to fill up buses full of migrants and drive them halfway across the country to Chicago why would the federal government allow the governor of Texas to fill up coach buses full of migrants and Planes full of migrants and fly them to New York City these are the two most crowded cities in America they don't even have any space left but you're allowing Florida and Texas to drive migrants halfway across the country to New York and Chicago and then when they get to New York and Chicago you tell the black mayors of New York and Chicago mayor Eric Adams and mayor Brandon Johnson that you're going to use your budget black people's tax dollars you're going to use that money to find emergency housing Medical Care shelter and Social Services for these people the homelessness rate in America is the highest has been since the 60s there are at least thirty thousand homeless blacks in New York there's at least twenty thousand homeless blacks in Chicago got to mention Philly bro Philadelphia leads the nation percentage-wise in Philadelphia leads the nation of homelessness but we don't have the migrant crisis yet as bad we have migrants but it's not as bad as Chicago and New York is it a coincidence that they're sending all these migrants to these two congested cities because these are the two biggest black voter blocks in the country they're the two most socially and politically conscious black groups in the country and because we don't want to answer the black people and we don't want to be accountable to black people we're going to liquidate the Negroes out of New York and Chicago and turn these cities into migrant centers that is exactly what they are doing the same schools that they said they could not afford to operate in Chicago are operating now as 24-hour homeless shelters for migrants if you didn't have the money to operate this school from 8 A.M to 3 P.M how did you find the money over 9 right to operate the school 24 hours a day as a migrant shelter totally unacceptable um also recently can you speak about the situation where the judge dismissed uh the case for the Tulsa reparations yes a couple of weeks ago the oldest living survivors of the 1921 tosa race riot had their petition for reparations thrown out in Oklahoma three points I want to make on this number one this was an insult to African people everywhere it was an insult to our ancestors who were murdered in Tulsa during the Black Wall Street Massacre of May 1921 and it was an insult to those Elders who are still living a hundred years after that situation took place to not get any form of restitution for themselves or their ancestors three points Point number one the reparations movement is gaining momentum it's gaining momentum because it's gaining momentum the government doesn't want to feed it in any way by acknowledging reparations for any of the massacres that took place in American history in other words slavery was the biggest Massacre that may one day see the Supreme Court reparations for African people may one day see the Supreme Court if we give reparations to Tulsa or reparations to Rosewood or reparations to Wilmington North Carolina or reparations to Charleston South Carolina for those Black Wall Streets that we destroyed are we not setting a legal precedent upon which an argument for reparations for slavery could be made to American Africans living in this country I believe a decision was made at the top of the power structure that that case had to be thrown out because if they get reparations for what we did to them in Tulsa we're going to have to give reparations to black people for what we did to them in slavery that's number one number two I think it is also a test to see how Black America reacts they want to see how we react to Tulsa to gauge our seriousness on how we would respond if they strike down reparations in America because I believe there's a strong chance they're going to strike it down for black folks so they want to get a gauge on our reaction to how we would respond if they say we're not giving out any reparations because there was a poll that went out and the poll that went out it's a couple months ago they they polled different Americans on their views on reparations for slavery Latinos Arabs they went to everybody most people are not for it most people Latinos are not for it Asians enough very few people support reparations for blacks which makes sense because they don't value black life but from where I'm sitting why you asking Chinese what they think about the slavery you put me through why you asking Arabs and East Indians and Latinos who were not enslaved in America what they think about this is between the U.S government and African people this does not involve Chinese Arabs Jews or any Jews it does because they participated but it doesn't involve Chinese Arabs East Indians Latinos Mexicans or nobody else why you asking them you know why they're asking them America wants to make sure the immigrants are on their side so when they say we're not giving black people reparations for slavery it'll look like it's a national decision that this would not be good for the country and I Believe Tulsa was just the first step towards the U.S government striking down to fight for reparations I believe reparations is going to end up in front of the Supreme Court and more effectively I think it may need to end up at the international uh criminal court of justice the Geneva Convention and on the um main floor of the United Nations I don't think it ends in America in regards to reparations right um I've heard a lot of different conversations and perspectives but people fail to speak a lot about education people need to be educated collectively as a culture to what to do with land or money uh Financial illiteracy is the Achilles heel of our people so I think that in preparation for uh receiving any form of reparations we need to like start an educational program in regards to what to do with the money collectively not from an individual standpoint yes indeed I agree I agree that there needs to be financial literacy but I also agree that there's a few things that need to take place even before that number one how do you give reparations to a disorganized people how do you give reparations to a disorganized people until we come together and choose the group that we want to advocate for this and disseminate this I don't think it needs to be given out number two who decided that reparations will be given to individuals who decided that reparations is for the repair of African people it's not for people to pay their bills it's not a stimulus check it's not a tax return it is for repair you say that one more time I think people view reparations as an individual check to your household to do as you please slavery was done to a group of people a race of people reparations is designed to address the harm and Damage Done to the group reparations is not a dissemination of 50 million individual checks so you can go spend the money as you choose if you do that we get nothing from it because we are too disorganized who believes for one minute that every individual black person gets a check and we are going to bring them checks back together again to solve our problems that's not going to happen first of all if you believe that we're going to use the money as a group why would you need an individual check in the first place so in my opinion this idea that every black person gets a slice of the money is sabotage in and of itself to make sure the reparations are never used for anything good that's why I have went on the record to say and I'm going to say it again now I believe in reparations I support reparations pan-africanists we gave birth to the movement anyway this didn't hop up yesterday with the YouTube people this is as old as pan-africanism but I believe that reparations should not be disseminated individually or in group until a more responsible generation of African people come along I have very little faith in those of us in this country right now I have very little faith that those of us in this country right now would use this restitution package in a way that would maximize its benefit to the generation alive now and future Generations still to come remember reparations is not just for us alive it's for the ancestors what do we do for their legacy what do we do for their memory it's for all of those yet unborn every American African Hereafter should benefit from that what are we going to set up for every unborn child so they have a good chance at a good life do they all get this do they all get a house do they all get land every African child born from now into perpetuity will get a hundred acres 40 acres 20 acres I haven't heard a single conversation on what we're going to do for The Unborn with this reparations package to me it seems like Negroes think that all of this is for us alive we so special it ain't about the ancestors it's not about The Unborn it's for those of us alive I disagree with that I disagree with individual checks and I believe the reparations although we can continue to educate agitate and advocate for it it should not be disseminated until a more responsible group of American Africans are here to accept it and use it in a responsible manner maybe our grandchildren may be our great-grandchildren but you're talking about the Negroes right now in the second decade of the 21st century hell no and the other point I want to say on this very little attention is being paid to the mental cost of slavery all right I was just we understand what about the psychological damage why are we not quantifying the psychological damage 243 years of unpaid labor what cost of living adjustments that'd be a nice piece of change but what about the psychological damage the reason we even want reparations today is for what the psychological damage while we snow bunny hopping why are we killing each other why black women desecrating their bodies why black boys only want to be athletes why do our children still see black as ugly why we don't have our own Banks our own schools our own supermarkets our own hospitals our own distribution our own manufacturer is because of the damage done here not the field labor that ain't nothing it's the psychological also I don't hear enough attention being paid to land I'm hearing money money is a trap the worst thing we could do is accept a cash payout and why the American dollar doesn't have a mineral equivalent it was taken off the gold standard decades ago how do you allow someone to pay for the worst human crime in history with money that has no mineral value does that make it the worst crime in human history is going to be paid for by money that has no mineral value do you know what that means he can give us hypothetically I'm gonna give y'all 20 trillion dollars don't you know tomorrow he can drop the price of the dollar through inflation so what was 20 trillion is only worth 10. another year we gonna drop it again now you worth 500 million and drop it again just through inflation he can reduce the value of his worthless paper dollar why are we even having a conversation about money now some people got upset they said Dr Umar what's wrong with us having some money my brother if the reparations demand list is what it should be you should be able to earn your own money I want land I want resources I want control of certain assets I want certain rights and privileges that nobody else got if I'm getting what I want I don't need money because I can get money from all of this that I have for example black people 60 of us are largely congregated in 10 States California Michigan Illinois Texas Florida New Jersey Virginia it's 10. and they're all seaboarding why not say for the 10 states where we predominate we control the Seaboard we control the import to export we get a tax on everything coming in and come out why not take possession of the main apparatuses in those states where we predominate I've heard no conversation about that what about America's natural resources America has gold America has oil America has water America has hydroelectric America has all kind of Natural Resources we should get a 25 cut if not more of all that permanently the reason you don't want money for reparations is money Runs Out but the benefit of Slavery to America never runs out so why would I take a non-renewable asset for an asset that will never expire why would I do that so I don't think we're thinking deeply enough about this I think a lot of black people just want some money and here's my other point on top of the fact that we should get control of all black music we should get control of all black inventions hands down we should get control of it we should also make the American white power structure build all the institutions we need and we will simply run it make them build the hospitals make them build the school the physical structure make them build Black Wall Streets all over the country that we will run with the money we will make from all of the land and the assets and the wealth that we will get I don't think we're thinking deep enough race lineage based reparations is a trap most reparations advocates in America they say we don't want American African excuse me we don't want African immigrants to get any of our money which is interesting because we give the Koreans 30 billion dollars a year and ain't nobody complaining look at all the money we give to the Jews and the Arabs nobody's complaining about all the money we give to these non-african groups but we're so focused on the African immigrant getting the penny of this reparation settlement that they have went to a a lineage-based reparations proposal slave lineage in other words you have to prove that she was enslaved your ancestor to get some I disagree with it I would rather go with race I don't care if a few Africans get money they still my family why do I support race based instead of slave lineage base there's white people in this country at least 25 percent of white Americans say that they have African ancestry from the plantations in America do you know what that means if you say reparations is for those who have a lineage to slavery what you going to do when other white folks pop up there because guess what you got white folks who great-great-great-grandfather was a slave master who raped his great great grandmother on the plantation a black woman and that baby came out so light intergenerationally that that baby was able to pass as a white person and guess what that white kid is actually a quarter black or 1 8 black from the plantation and they can prove it because they got the documentation that my great-great-great-great-grandmother Bessie on the plantation is my grandma and here's the lineage where's my money at if you go with lineage you automatically bring in millions of white folk who far outnumber the three million African immigrants that you hate so much and want to exclude lineage-based reparations is a trap that will allow white folks to benefit from reparations as much as we do go to race base if you're not black you can't get it you can't say lineage too many white people have lineage in American slavery it's a trap [Music] thank you
