Speaker 1: Damn he Hogg, it's time for Donkey Day. I me
Speaker 1: ain't trying to be donkey today no more.
Speaker 2: They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm
Speaker 2: not making these people do these days.
Speaker 1: Called donkey of the day. And it really caught me
Speaker 1: off guard.
Speaker 2: Damn Charlamagne, who got the donkey out of the day today? Yeah,
Speaker 2: donkey today For Monday, September twenty fifth goes to the
Speaker 2: forty sixth President of the United States of America, Joe Biden. Now,
Speaker 2: Joe Biden gave a speech at the Congressional Black Caucaus
Speaker 2: Foundation's Annual Legislative Conference on Saturday. I repeat, President Joe
Speaker 2: Biden gave a speech at the Congressional Black caucas Foundation's
Speaker 2: Annual Legislative Conference on Saturday. The reason I repeated where
Speaker 2: he was at twice is because the audience is very
Speaker 2: important in this situation, you talking to black people. Okay,
Speaker 2: not to mention all this stuff is written for the
Speaker 2: President or his writers. Gonna share some of this he
Speaker 2: had too, Okay. Now, President Biden was honoring recipients of
Speaker 2: this year's awards that recognized individuals who have made significant
Speaker 2: contributions society One of the recipients was the great James
Speaker 2: Todd Smith LL cool J, dropping the clues bomps for
Speaker 2: LL cool J, and while giving his speech about ll
Speaker 2: this happened the two of the.
Speaker 3: Great artists of our time, representing the groundbreaking legacy of
Speaker 3: hip hop in America. Ll J cool J, by the way,
Speaker 3: that boy's got you got man's got biceps bigger than
Speaker 3: my thighs.
Speaker 1: I think he spent ll J cool J. We'll get
Speaker 1: back to that in a second.
Speaker 2: A lot of people are upset that Joe Biden referred
Speaker 2: to LL cool J as a boy. As you can hear,
Speaker 2: he corrected himself on the spot. You know why Joe
Speaker 2: Biden corrected himself because he's one hundred and thirty seven
Speaker 2: years old. He fully understands the word boy in the
Speaker 2: racial context around a white man referring to a black man.
Speaker 2: This boy, see, boy is absolutely a white racist word
Speaker 2: when used in a certain context. And I know that
Speaker 2: because I'm from South Carolina dropping the clues bomb for
Speaker 2: South Carolina, and because i was raised watching Good Times, Okay,
Speaker 2: and a young scholar by the name of Mike Eleven
Speaker 2: broke that down to us.
Speaker 1: Why boy is a white racist word.
Speaker 2: If I'm not mistaken, it was season one, episode nine.
Speaker 1: You remember this, right, boy is white racist worse. That's
Speaker 1: all you needed to hear.
Speaker 2: Okay, once you knew that, you understood that boy with
Speaker 2: a white racist word. When the word boy is referred uh,
Speaker 2: when we when somebody uses the word boy to refer
Speaker 2: to an adult black man and the speaker is white,
Speaker 2: that takes on a whole different meaning.
Speaker 1: And do you know in Alabama a.
Speaker 2: White supervisor passed up a brother for a promotion and
Speaker 2: called the brother a boy, and that black man sued, Yes,
Speaker 2: he worked at Tyson Chicken and Goats in Alabama, suit
Speaker 2: his employer for workplace discrimination.
Speaker 1: Look up the case.
Speaker 2: His name was a John Hitthen I think I pronounced
Speaker 2: his name right en Hi t h and one. He
Speaker 2: sued his employee for workplace discrimination and two separate juries
Speaker 2: awarded Hitten back pay and punitive damages. And the US
Speaker 2: Supreme Court agreed that the use of the word boy
Speaker 2: could be racist and needed to be examined in the
Speaker 2: context in which it was spoken, and it sent the
Speaker 2: case back to the Eleventh Circuit. Now here's the rub
Speaker 2: on the third trying of the fourteen year old case.
Speaker 2: The Eleventh US Circuit Court of Appeals disagreed, and throughout
Speaker 2: all prior rulings on the case, my point is contexted,
Speaker 2: meaning matters. Okay, boy is a white racist word. Joe
Speaker 2: Biden knows this, That's why he corrected himself. But I'm
Speaker 2: gonna tell you what I found egregious the fact that
Speaker 2: Joe Biden got LL's name wrong to begin with.
Speaker 1: Can we hear that again? Please?
Speaker 3: Two of the great artists of our time, representing the
Speaker 3: groundbreaking legacy of hip hop in America. Ll J cool J.
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, stop stop ll J cool J.
Speaker 2: Why did the audience laugh? They should have been correcting
Speaker 2: him on the spot.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: I don't know if that was Joe Biden, or the
Speaker 2: teleprompter or the Delaware education system, but here's the thing,
Speaker 2: and not a shot at Delaware.
Speaker 1: It wasn't. I didn't even know why I said that.
Speaker 1: I don't know why I said that, But listen is
Speaker 1: the thing.
Speaker 2: Joe Biden should not need a teleprompter to know there's
Speaker 2: not two j's in ll cool J.
Speaker 1: Okay. Ll cool J is a man.
Speaker 2: Who has been rapping since President Joe Biden was my age. Literally,
Speaker 2: Joe Biden was forty four. I'm forty five, but Joe
Speaker 2: Biden was forty four when LL cool J dropped his
Speaker 2: debut album Radio. Okay, ll cool J has been white
Speaker 2: famous for at least thirty five years. There's not too
Speaker 2: many more recognizable celebrities on the planet. It's not like
Speaker 2: Joe Biden was speaking on somebody relatively new, someone he
Speaker 2: wasn't familiar with in any way, shape or form.
Speaker 1: It's LL cool J, not LJ cool J. How did
Speaker 1: he say it? Let me hit again, two of the.
Speaker 3: Great artists of our time, representing the groundbreaking legacy of
Speaker 3: hip hop in America.
Speaker 1: LLJ cool J, LLJ cool J, LJ cool J.
Speaker 2: Look, this is a prime example of it doesn't matter
Speaker 2: how many black people you are around, doesn't matter how
Speaker 2: many Black people you have in your administration, doesn't matter
Speaker 2: how many Black people you have.
Speaker 1: Right for you.
Speaker 2: If it's not authentic to him, then it won't come
Speaker 2: off as authentic to anyone. Okay, y'all, Keepe trying to
Speaker 2: just one hundred and ninety seven year old man sound
Speaker 2: cool simply because he's talking to black people, And there's
Speaker 2: nothing more uncool than someone trying too hard to be cool.
Speaker 1: What's that quote, don't try too hard to be cool?
Speaker 2: It always shows and that's uncool. Yes, that is President
Speaker 2: Joe Biden. Please give Delaware's finest President, Joe Biden to
Speaker 2: sweet Sounds of the Hamiltons.
Speaker 4: You oh the day, ye oh the day.
Speaker 1: Ye I don't like this? What what don't you like?
Speaker 1: Della Range got nothing to do with the fact that
Speaker 1: that man don't alone. You gotta represent yo. You gotta
Speaker 1: take him the good end the bad. That's what y'all got.
Speaker 1: A president that's big we do, Yes, that's big.
Speaker 2: L L J. Cool is hard, all right, b e
Speaker 2: T we see piece B Donkey Today is brought to
