So I'm sure you know there's obviously the Super Bowl will be held in Atlanta next year
it will. Aight, your Falcons guna be there?
Yeah man ummm....
See listen right, it's real tough
Because I have.
I have made a conscious decision not to support to support the NFL this year
Well explain what went into that decision and why you decided to do that.
Ah man I think there's a violation of constitutional rights is being implemented to minority players who choose to
have a peaceful silent protest.
I know that when well first of all it's paid patriotism because they're paying the NFL
to do the national anthem so it's not really because you doing it for the love of
country you doing it for a check.
So.
It's just it's really like you want us to shut up and take what we take what we get coming to us in
our communities and that's just not acceptable and if that's what you think about us?
Why should we like really spend our money and show our extreme support of your
corporation.
And that does not just for them that's for any Corporation and I feel like for us man like the
power that we have and I know that with as many lives as we lose and as much disregards we
have with the law and as many times you just see us
You know physically abused verbally abused accosted I know it seems like
we're powerless but we have power we just don't recognize it.
The power.
The power that we have isn't dollars will we place our dollars.
US as a consumer base we are the largest consumer base which means we support
companies and turn them into Fortune 500 companies make them billions of dollars
and we have the least amount of ownership
or participation so if and the corporations they control the politicians so politicians
controlled the police Corporation control the politician if the policeman won't listen
the politicians won't listen.
We gotta go to the corporations stop spending out dollars with them until they press the
politicians who press the police to do what we need to do they respect their lives they
consider us as equals earth they don't deserve.
Our dollars.
You sound like you're ready to lead the revolution TI you ready to lead. If won't nobody else do it I will.
I mean you know the only thing about the revolution uh the only thing about the
revolution is it ain't goin be pretty you know saying.
It might be some people got to do some things that you might not want to see done.
And they ain't going to always face you know.
Face a favorable opinion all the time and I'm not really one who alway I always want
to present myself in a manner that I can consistently maintain.
So you see me and this is how I am today you see me tomorrow this Imma be in it don't matter whether
I'm on the frontline of the protest or whether we at Magic City throwin one's or you know or whether I'm in
Roscos I'm gonna steal I'ma keep the same energy.
And if this energy don't necessarily fit every position or situation
that why I gotta be very careful where I place myself but because when people want
you to be a role model.
You know this.
That's excellent and it's an honor I heard Pac say and it was like one of the realest things
I ever heard
Being a role model I rather be a real model.
Cuz the role model a role model you just playing a role you know what I'm sayin I don't never
want to make it make it look like something to you that it ain't for real so good and bad
up or down this is me you know I'm saying.
And
I think I think that's I think that's more important that's how I can
that's how I can keep from letting people down by just always being me and being
honest about who I am always give you 100% of me.
That's the word right there be a real model not a role model I heard that way I think a lot of people in
this room probably everybody in this room are very happy the fact that sure they're real model alright.
