WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.459
Yo, what's up? It's your boy Quincy Murdock with

00:00:02.459 --> 00:00:06.019
another episode of Not Just Music Podcasts, where

00:00:06.019 --> 00:00:14.179
we keep it real and honest. Being a podcaster,

00:00:14.300 --> 00:00:18.359
being in the entertainment, doing this freedom

00:00:18.359 --> 00:00:21.079
of speech that we do, you know, giving our opinions.

00:00:21.379 --> 00:00:24.899
A big thing happened with Jimmy Kimmel and the

00:00:24.899 --> 00:00:29.559
president. It started with Kimmel. actually making

00:00:29.559 --> 00:00:37.500
a joke of a young a young speaker uh charlie

00:00:37.500 --> 00:00:40.439
i believe his name was if i got his name wrong

00:00:40.439 --> 00:00:43.539
i'm sorry it was a speaker but he spoke out the

00:00:43.539 --> 00:00:45.979
speaker spoke out on a lot of things you know

00:00:45.979 --> 00:00:50.780
political personal about people's life the way

00:00:50.780 --> 00:00:59.679
they choose to live sensitive of and he ended

00:00:59.679 --> 00:01:02.899
up unfortunately getting killed and we don't

00:01:02.899 --> 00:01:05.739
condone any killing or nothing like that anybody

00:01:05.739 --> 00:01:09.680
any race any person that we take that serious

00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:14.159
anytime somebody loses a life over a voice opinion

00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:18.200
uh how you feel is always a bad thing fast forward

00:01:18.200 --> 00:01:22.700
kim had made a joke aimed at the president but

00:01:22.700 --> 00:01:25.879
the victim that got killed actually was part

00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:29.040
of the joke Basically, he got suspended. The

00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:32.980
government, Donald Trump, had suspended his show.

00:01:33.159 --> 00:01:36.420
And I think he was off air for a week. And this

00:01:36.420 --> 00:01:40.280
was all over a joke. And I think the joke was...

00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:43.780
We had some new lows over the weekend with the

00:01:43.780 --> 00:01:46.000
MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize

00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:48.840
this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything

00:01:48.840 --> 00:01:51.060
other than one of them and doing everything they

00:01:51.060 --> 00:01:54.040
can. to score political points from it. In between

00:01:54.040 --> 00:01:56.859
the finger pointing, there was grieving. On Friday,

00:01:56.900 --> 00:01:58.980
the White House flew the flags at half staff,

00:01:59.140 --> 00:02:01.780
which got some criticism. But on a human level,

00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:04.840
you can see how hard the president is taking

00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:07.219
this. My condolences on the loss of your friend,

00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:09.479
Charlie Kirk. May I ask, sir, personally, how

00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:11.840
are you holding up over the last day and a half,

00:02:11.919 --> 00:02:14.039
sir? I think very good. And by the way, right

00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:16.699
there, you see all the trucks? They've just started

00:02:16.699 --> 00:02:18.840
construction of the new ballroom for the White

00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:21.219
House. Which is something they've been trying

00:02:21.219 --> 00:02:24.340
to get, as you know, for about 150 years. And

00:02:24.340 --> 00:02:28.180
it's going to be a beauty. Yes. He's at the fourth

00:02:28.180 --> 00:02:34.520
stage of grief. Construction. Demolition. Construction.

00:02:36.219 --> 00:02:38.539
This is not how an adult grieves the murder of

00:02:38.539 --> 00:02:40.360
someone he called a friend. This is how a four

00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:43.719
-year -old mourns a goldfish. So he got suspended.

00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:46.500
And a lot of people were... you know talking

00:02:46.500 --> 00:02:48.340
about freedom of speech what happened to freedom

00:02:48.340 --> 00:02:51.379
of speech what happened to jokes you know uh

00:02:51.379 --> 00:02:54.580

00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:08.439
And what I'm going to talk about today is a black

00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:13.930
female by the name of Ida. Bell Wales anti -lynching

00:04:13.930 --> 00:04:19.050
pamphlets help usher in a new era of journalism.

00:04:20.089 --> 00:04:24.569
OK, you may be familiar with the term. Muck records

00:04:24.569 --> 00:04:28.949
are yellow journalism. At the turn of the 20th

00:04:28.949 --> 00:04:32.050
century, journalists began writing vividly, describing

00:04:32.050 --> 00:04:35.329
stories about horrific practices around the country

00:04:35.329 --> 00:04:41.629
and world. Nellie Bly's 10 Days. In a madhouse

00:04:41.629 --> 00:04:45.930
and out of Tarbell's The History of Standard

00:04:45.930 --> 00:04:51.089
Oil Company as two classes of the genre. But

00:04:51.089 --> 00:04:55.550
without Wells' Southern Horrors, a 1982 pamphlet

00:04:55.550 --> 00:04:58.709
detailing lynching accounts throughout the United

00:04:58.709 --> 00:05:02.709
States and how those lynchings were enacted to

00:05:02.709 --> 00:05:05.410
punish black people who threatened white power

00:05:05.410 --> 00:05:08.980
structures. Her investigating investigative journalism

00:05:08.980 --> 00:05:14.379
gave rise to new mythology okay so she basically

00:05:14.379 --> 00:05:20.279
was telling stories vivid stories of black lynchings

00:05:20.279 --> 00:05:22.800
you know back then it wasn't really a lot of

00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:26.480
um coverage we didn't have cell phones we didn't

00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:29.540
have cameras so this generation wouldn't have

00:05:29.540 --> 00:05:32.720
even known of the things occurring or going on

00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:37.120
if it wasn't for people like her out of you know

00:05:37.120 --> 00:05:40.220
um that covered these things wrote these things

00:05:40.220 --> 00:05:43.319
down reported these things back then even now

00:05:43.319 --> 00:05:47.800
people that have experiences journal journalism

00:05:47.800 --> 00:05:50.939
is a big thing it's a it's a freedom of speech

00:05:50.939 --> 00:05:54.259
and unfortunately we live in a country now to

00:05:54.259 --> 00:05:57.620
where people want to dictate the news people

00:05:57.620 --> 00:06:00.480
want to dictate the narrative if it's something

00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:03.019
that makes them look bad if it's something that

00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:08.939
doesn't go by their accord or their standards,

00:06:09.220 --> 00:06:12.120
then they want to shut it down. They basically

00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:13.920
want to control the narrative and control the

00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:16.579
news. Anything that makes them look good, anything

00:06:16.579 --> 00:06:21.680
that's supportive of them is okay. But anything

00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:24.360
that's against them is not supporting them or

00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:28.199
their cause. They want to silence it. And I feel

00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:31.019
like if it's going to be freedom of speech, it

00:06:31.019 --> 00:06:34.379
needs to be free from all angles. And us as people,

00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:38.439
we have to realize everybody's not going to see

00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:40.160
our point of view. Everybody's not going to think

00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:42.160
how we think. Everybody's not going to feel how

00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:46.160
we feel about everything or some things at all.

00:06:46.500 --> 00:06:50.600
But the point we must remember is it's a freedom

00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:55.579
of speech. It's an opinion. And no opinion and

00:06:55.579 --> 00:06:58.139
no freedom of speech gives another individual

00:06:58.139 --> 00:07:02.399
the right to attack your livelihood. meaning

00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:07.040
your job financially are even making it worse

00:07:07.040 --> 00:07:11.600
you know taking your life over freedom of speech

00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:17.680
so shout out to women like her that were brave

00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:20.699
enough to report these things and tell the truth

00:07:20.699 --> 00:07:24.959
because the truth will set us free and no matter

00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:30.290
how much we hate our opinion What lies under

00:07:30.290 --> 00:07:33.310
the opinions and what lies deeply under all of

00:07:33.310 --> 00:07:36.250
the he say, she say. One thing you got to remember

00:07:36.250 --> 00:07:39.730
is one thing that will never change is the truth

00:07:39.730 --> 00:07:43.230
of all these opinions. You can think what you

00:07:43.230 --> 00:07:47.889
want to think, but facts, truth. They don't lie.

00:07:49.029 --> 00:07:53.550
All right. So, yeah, people. Freedom of speech.

00:07:54.439 --> 00:07:56.399
I have the freedom to do this right here. Not

00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:59.259
just music podcast to y 'all. My opinions, my

00:07:59.259 --> 00:08:03.160
feelings, how I feel, what I think, my facts,

00:08:03.439 --> 00:08:08.699
flaws, good, bad, whatever to inspire. Hopefully

00:08:08.699 --> 00:08:11.759
somebody like me. And if you don't agree with

00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:15.800
the content that I do or say or what I say, I

00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:18.439
appreciate y 'all still giving me this platform

00:08:18.439 --> 00:08:22.899
to speak my freedom of speech. So. Respect to

00:08:22.899 --> 00:08:25.600
ones that support us. Respect to ones that don't.

00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:28.860
Because at the end of the day, y 'all still allow

00:08:28.860 --> 00:08:32.179
us to have this platform. God allows us to have

00:08:32.179 --> 00:08:35.100
this platform. And we're blessed. And we're going

00:08:35.100 --> 00:08:38.399
to keep striving, keep telling our points of

00:08:38.399 --> 00:08:41.960
view. Not Just Music Podcast. So once again,

00:08:44.320 --> 00:08:46.980
Music Podcast. Where we keep it real and honest.

Peace.
