Good morning black brothers and sisters. Have a wonderful and productive day, when you're roaming the thoroughfare, always remember to grab life by the horns. Be good, be great and be the kings and queen you rightfully are ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾 #blackways
+jerry cruz This is a radio station that has a predominantly black supporter base so he's just sharing positivity with the mainstream audience. Plus, if you actually listened to the interview, you might have picked up on some of the issues that black people face in America today in comparison to other races (white people) so there's nothing wrong with ethnic minorities uplifting their own race.. Don't take it personal
Kirsten Porter N.A.A.C.P. is worthless! A waste of time, unless you’re circumstance is high profiled, like visible by camera to support their useless organization image.
Brian Wilson it was my belief that time is based on Roland’s schedule and after sitting amongst people that say that something is irrelevant and are not “present and involved” why would you sit and waste your time any further. I appreciate how Roland breaks information down to get you to understand basically that your inactivity makes things irrelevant.
***** complaining .... Expressing dissastisfaction or annoyance about a state of affairs. If you don't like ehats going on take it up with your local chapter or start something yourself. Don't just sit behind a keyboard and complain. This generation is lazy and wants a quick fix it's so embarrassing.
DanYiel Teflon it's sad because I see it all the time like we try to do so much around the community and no black people show up but quick to complain about the lack,of support.
The ones that talk the most aren't doing a damn thing. Some of those talking also have fake profiles that want you to be against him. So, they are setting traps. I'm not falling for it!
Noir Belle I'm from Eastern NC, and the Rev. William Barber is the head of the NC chapter of the NAACP, and he works extremely hard here in NC. He was just arrested yesterday protesting for health care here in NC. Roland was right about different leagues and committees doing different things in different states, and it's unfair to assume that those factions aren't working diligently in the community....
they still didn't give him enough time as all the rappers and entertainers that have come on. Marlon Wayans got 45 mins, but a positive message and info only gets 30?
POUND AGEOLD I feel really bad about that. she is really selling her self short with her consistent sex angle on the show and in her life. she is a really big woman for the culture and it's like she doesn't know it.
POUND AGEOLD yea, that irks me since women have complained about men disregarding their skills and thinking of them as nothing but gossip queens and then here you have Yee representing that stereotype in full effect. Damnit.
I have some problems with the NAACP sometimes, but their not irrelevant. I thought we're about advancing our people, the NAACP is not a entertainer or ball player, they don't always have too be seen. Lot of people you see aren't actually doing the work, the NAACP doesn't have to twit, instagram, or snapchat everything they do. We as a society now are so caught up in everything has too be seen,we're a quick fix society, NAACP acts on local levels, if you want to know what they do look it up, before saying their irrelevant, and judge them from that.
DarkEpyon123 Dude please, Roland is an excellent brutha. He makes waves and he's on point when it comes to the economics and what we need to do as black people to try and stay afloat in a system that wasn't designed for us. Just making a joke and obviously you know what I'm talking about so relax with the chest all out.
I've been kind of pissed with the Detroit chapter of the NAACP ever since they gave a BLATANT new racist bigot like Kid Rock a freckin award!!!!! Of all people they could have dignified, they pick a guy who doesn't give a damn about black people, WTH!?!
You prolly dont care at all but does someone know a tool to log back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb forgot the login password. I love any tips you can offer me.
Then on the flip side if these organizations go bye bye than when something racial happens and there is no organization that support black causes than blacks can't complain , blacks will support the NBA before they'll support The NAACP and that sad but they should be grateful whites don't kill all of them .
Stop calling it a Black organization. It was started with Jewish money. Its highest honor is named after its Jewish founders. It has always been a multiracial organization. But, always follow the money.
Demetrius Mixon - That’s what earlier touched on as to why they were relevant and effective in the 1960’s and not today. The ACLU receives the bulk of funding the NAACP use to receive. As long as any so-called black organization receives the bulk of their funding from whites will never be effective and free to fight our causes...
Solomon Stringer - It’s their fault for depending on “others” dollars to function and exist whereas they are controlled and limited in their ability to make a REAL impact in the black community.
wow people coming at NAACP. need to do research, smh we really to do our research its so rich and important to our history. WE this generation is responsible for preserve that org.
Really informative interview. A lot of truths expressed and maybe not all questions answered, but the framework of community success, HBCU Financial growth, and organizational improvements, he's on point! No money, No Power, and No Power from No Money. Self evaluation 1st, then self improvement next!
The NAACP was weak from the beginning. Opposed The Honourable Marcus Garvey, threw W.E. Dubois when he tried to implement a programme of self sufficiency. It goes on and on.
Research NAACP and see how and why it was formed.... No disrespect, but I don't think it's in our best interest. Yes there are people who are in that organization who truly care and want change in this world, but that is not our organization to save us ,or change the world. And before someone ask me what I am doing, I'm starting with me.... Peace be upon you!
I'm glad he broke down the importance of the NAACP.Like I said they are so ignorant on real issues.They shouldn't be so quick to speak and show how dumb they are.
The Breakfast Club staff really showed their lack of knowledge on this subject. Roland was on it. I'm from the South and the NAACP does a lot of stuff that isn't headline worthy but is changing and affecting lives on a day-to-day basis.
The one thing I do agree with if you have a problem do something. I graduated from an HBCU in City and Regional Planning from Morgan and also went to Michigan State for my undergrad. The only difference to me is the money. The alumni of these HBCU'S must give back if you give back 100 or 200 every 2 or 3 months it will help. I will make an effort to help out my HBCU
Long as you start making an effort you should be good. If your friends are doing the same thing as you pls encourage them to give back a couple of 100 dollars every 2 or 3 months would be helpful. You know the conditions of your HBCU so any amount can help them continue helping students for their future
Some employees unfortunately at a lot of foundations & companies drop the ball. We had work ethics & some still do. Customer service is really important. There is no excuse for you to have not received a call. My daughter went to offer free legal work to members of Jessie Jackson's Operation Push years ago & was sat in the corner & left as if she was not there. She finally left. She is now a Judge & has helped other people. although her law field was Corporate & Finance she wanted to help our people. She paid for & mentored a young lady for two years & helped Cabrini Green girl to get her grades up.
PBT The real Black Organization that's still exist is the Nation of Islam when Dr.Khalid Abdul Muhammad passed the members in the black panther party ran back to the Nation of Islam my brother A.P.B.T.A.
Iluvhaters! I agree. I became a teacher and was laid off and now only work part time in a daycare. I wish I had chosen a different career and could send money to my HBCU.
I love being black but it's hard. We have so many other responsibilities besides just living and society makes it so hard for us. We have to survive the hood, survive getting pulled over,do good in school, go to college, pay bills maintain our health, build our credit, give back to our community, fight for civil rights, support black business, deal with racism, find love, raise our kids, have a social live etc
I'm in West Virginia. All we have is the NAACP. We do have a Youth Organization. Whenever there is an issue...school, police brutality and prison they be on it. Mr. Martin has brought out sooo much.
rtyujih nothimg , but for my city Camden the one the in NJ im doing a lot for. My city has it just as bad. So i dedicate myself where im at. how bout ?
The Hartford, CT chapter was a mess with plenty of internal infighting. i became so tired of the local office being closed and without access to file employment discrimination complaint, that i called the Bmore national offices which supplied me with the State Chapter office in New York to register my frustrations, of which still were not resolved, due to each chapter being autonomous...smh
Charlemagne needs to give himself and Envy "Donkey of the Day" for questioning what the NAACP is doing and for saying they don't see what the organization is doing lately. There is never a stupid question to ask, but my gosh. How dare you question the NAACP.
I went to a local NAACP meeting for the first time ever because someone was speaking that i know and i was AMAZED how invloved they were . and its not just them it was them in union with many other organizations, they were involved with everything in the city civically.
Sorry Roland but never in my life have I ever gotten into some shit and thought a split second about calling the NAACP. If I were in the south and found myself in trouble I'd call my homeboys MoonPie and Half-Dead.
This is what Monique was talking about. CTG (and Envy) has some serious 🦝 ways and it’s really disgusting. If it were up to him, we’d end up going 10 steps back. From him not valuing the NAACP to him wanting to completely give up on all robots and AI
Low alumni donation/support rates is a real issue.... I didn't even go to a HBCU, I went to a small private school that struggled to get support from many of the grads. It really hurts the institution. The Harvards, Yales and Notre Dames have millionaires to help their schools. Not the case for many schools.
You have to be able to listen, whether or not you like someone is irrelevant. Listening helps build your argument for or against your opponents and allies.
naacp is over 100 yrs old, what have they done significantly in the past 50. nothing too major, the urban leagues are not doing nothing significant. they all do some good but there are new orgs n programs that's only 20 30 yrs old that has done just as much for black people than naacp in its over 100 yr existence. explain that roland. it is on the public African community to support our own liberation, but these programs were supposed to b the catalyst in bringing forth the information for liberation.
I have sporadically donated to my hbcu since graduation. I decided last year to donate twice a year every year moving forward. I encourage everyone to do so even if you are only sending $15 a shot. DONATE to your HBCU, its important.
Wow... buy 1 share of stock vs. Nikes.... problem solved. We need to stop this respectability politics. The benign neglect and the misappropriation of our tax dollars is what the problem is, not the hair weave that got bought by a person with a few hundred dollars in the bank. Stocks are only beneficial if you buy at scale. You shouldn't invest if you don't have 3 months of finances saved up. If you aren't full invested in your retirement, you shouldn't be day trading. Most people in a gig economy that need immediate access to funds can't buy 1 share of $200 Netflix stock that might make them $20 in 2 or 3 years. This is feel good rhetoric.
Good morning black brothers and sisters. Have a wonderful and productive day, when you're roaming the thoroughfare, always remember to grab life by the horns. Be good, be great and be the kings and queen you rightfully are ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾 #blackways

The NAACP has done nothing for the advancement of the Black community.
Kirsten Porter N.A.A.C.P. is worthless! A waste of time, unless you’re circumstance is high profiled, like visible by camera to support their useless organization image.
Oh... ok... how did you come to this conclusion?
Lekeisha from personal experience on more than one occasion.
How much have u donated to the organization?
How dumb
I love this interview! FAMU alum over here! HBCU's need our continued support.
Prissy 🐍 yas.
Prissy Hello fellow Rattler!!!! I agree, we have to support our HBCUs and be active in our communities and ur community organizations.
Prissy #FAMUly 💜
Im frm Tallahassee
Ive sold weed to alota famu students Lol
Go Rattlers!! Lol
Chuurch.....
Roland is right on small towns and NAACP. I live in a small southern city and they are definitely the only body of freedom fighters we have!
Brian Wilson it was my belief that time is based on Roland’s schedule and after sitting amongst people that say that something is irrelevant and are not “present and involved” why would you sit and waste your time any further. I appreciate how Roland breaks information down to get you to understand basically that your inactivity makes things irrelevant.
He's sooooo right about alumni spending money for homecoming but don't give back.
Ali Harris That was a serious TRUTH
my local NAACP chapter is very active in the community. to everyone complaining DO SOMETHING BESIDES SITTING BEHIND A KEYBOARD COMPLAINING.
Noir Belle my point exactly!!
***** complaining .... Expressing dissastisfaction or annoyance about a state of affairs. If you don't like ehats going on take it up with your local chapter or start something yourself. Don't just sit behind a keyboard and complain. This generation is lazy and wants a quick fix it's so embarrassing.
DanYiel Teflon it's sad because I see it all the time like we try to do so much around the community and no black people show up but quick to complain about the lack,of support.
The ones that talk the most aren't doing a damn thing. Some of those talking also have fake profiles that want you to be against him. So, they are setting traps. I'm not falling for it!
Noir Belle I'm from Eastern NC, and the Rev. William Barber is the head of the NC chapter of the NAACP, and he works extremely hard here in NC. He was just arrested yesterday protesting for health care here in NC. Roland was right about different leagues and committees doing different things in different states, and it's unfair to assume that those factions aren't working diligently in the community....
they still didn't give him enough time as all the rappers and entertainers that have come on. Marlon Wayans got 45 mins, but a positive message and info only gets 30?
Garrett Reaves he clearly heard that part
Newsflash!: "Impeached" does not mean removal from office. It's just a charge without a conviction.
Rite, 2 words....bill Clinton
Angela Yee doesn't have much to offer this conversation cuz theres nothing to discuss about sexuality and scandal.
POUND AGEOLD I feel really bad about that. she is really selling her self short with her consistent sex angle on the show and in her life. she is a really big woman for the culture and it's like she doesn't know it.
POUND AGEOLD yea, that irks me since women have complained about men disregarding their skills and thinking of them as nothing but gossip queens and then here you have Yee representing that stereotype in full effect. Damnit.
POUND AGEOLD 😂😂😂😂
Angela Yee and Envy are useless in discussions like this.
Yee n Envy are arrogant they "made it" now they think they special. waiting on their next Butter Biscuit
if you want to know what they are doing attend a meeting
I have some problems with the NAACP sometimes, but their not irrelevant. I thought we're about advancing our people, the NAACP is not a entertainer or ball player, they don't always have too be seen.

Only a handful know about Roland the Boule Bird😂 j/k, he's a good brutha but i miss when Tom Joyner and J. Anthony use to break on his ascot.
Tony Brown Roland is talking about economic empowerment and you want to derail the conversation by talking about a grown man playing with a puppet.
DarkEpyon123 Dude please, Roland is an excellent brutha. He makes waves and he's on point when it comes to the economics and what we need to do as black people to try and stay afloat in a system that wasn't designed for us. Just making a joke and obviously you know what I'm talking about so relax with the chest all out.
Tony Brown you too???? Lol
Ilia Powell lol
Tariq 😂😂
Today, I submitted my request for membership to NAACP after watching this interview.
I've been kind of pissed with the Detroit chapter of the NAACP ever since they gave a BLATANT new racist bigot like Kid Rock a freckin award!!!!! Of all people they could have dignified, they pick a guy who doesn't give a damn about black people, WTH!?!
I love Roland Martin! Always giving knowledge.. who paused several times to take notes? LOL
I did
You prolly dont care at all but does someone know a tool to log back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb forgot the login password. I love any tips you can offer me.
@Quentin Kian Instablaster :)
@Zakai Makai thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and Im trying it out now.
Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Zakai Makai It worked and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much, you really help me out!
Charlemagne and Envy don't know enough to even be having this conversation. Sad 🙄
Why would black folks want to fund an organization they hear nothing about? It is up to the organization to give the people a reason to support it
swordofagenius you missed his point.. it's a volunteer organization....get involved if you broke and you care about black institutions..
Then on the flip side if these organizations go bye bye than when something racial happens and there is no organization that support black causes than blacks can't complain , blacks will support the NBA before they'll support The NAACP and that sad but they should be grateful whites don't kill all of them .
Funny these rich dudes is talking about "I wouldn't call NAACP" Of course you wouldnt! You have lawyers on retainers. The average joe doesn't
Stop calling it a Black organization. It was started with Jewish money. Its highest honor is named after its Jewish founders. It has always been a multiracial organization. But, always follow the money.
Demetrius Mixon - That’s what earlier touched on as to why they were relevant and effective in the 1960’s and not today. The ACLU receives the bulk of funding the NAACP use to receive.

@@andrebeauchamp1258 but who's fault is that , blacks...

Andre Beauchamp exactly
wow people coming at NAACP. need to do research, smh we really to do our research its so rich and important to our history. WE this generation is responsible for preserve that org.
I like Roland. He needs to get those moles on his eyelids removed, I thought it was something on my TV screen.
Moles
Really informative interview. A lot of truths expressed and maybe not all questions answered, but the framework of community success, HBCU Financial growth, and organizational improvements, he's on point! No money, No Power, and No Power from No Money. Self evaluation 1st, then self improvement next!
The NAACP was weak from the beginning. Opposed The Honourable Marcus Garvey, threw W.E. Dubois when he tried to implement a programme of self sufficiency. It goes on and on.
Roland Martin spits those *FACTS*!!!!!
Roland is the smartest man in the room, just ask him
black knowledge ...
Research NAACP and see how and why it was formed.... No disrespect, but I don't think it's in our best interest. Yes there are people who are in that organization who truly care and want change in this world, but that is not our organization to save us ,or change the world. And before someone ask me what I am doing, I'm starting with me.... Peace be upon you!
We as black people need to give ourselves reparations.
I'm glad he broke down the importance of the NAACP.Like I said they are so ignorant on real issues.They shouldn't be so quick to speak and show how dumb they are.
Kim Wright so what have they done?? If you actually listened to the interview you still couldn’t steal an answer from this house nigga shut your mouth
Informative and upbeat about it too!
let trump stay in office so his administration can implode on itself
Love this man! Thank you for the resources Mr. Martin
The Breakfast Club staff really showed their lack of knowledge on this subject. Roland was on it. I'm from the South and the NAACP does a lot of stuff that isn't headline worthy but is changing and affecting lives on a day-to-day basis.
This interview has motivated me to visit the NAACP's website to see how I can get more involved. Thanks Roland! You're a game changer!
People are coming out of college with 100 thousand dollar loans!!! And you want them to give, how?
. 100k loans aren’t stopping them from giving to everybody else..
The same way they seem to wind up with new clothes and shoes and cars and phones
can't give $5 every 3 months?
Yes Roland inform the people!
I like this guy........Loyal to his cause unlike y'all baby daddies
phahahahahahahahahaha , I'm screaming !
The one thing I do agree with if you have a problem do something. I graduated from an HBCU in City and Regional Planning from Morgan and also went to Michigan State for my undergrad. The only difference to me is the money. The alumni of these HBCU'S must give back if you give back 100 or 200 every 2 or 3 months it will help. I will make an effort to help out my HBCU
TheMr2face I am guilty of not giving back like I should because he was talking to me directly when he said we go back to homecoming every year.
Long as you start making an effort you should be good. If your friends are doing the same thing as you pls encourage them to give back a couple of 100 dollars every 2 or 3 months would be helpful. You know the conditions of your HBCU so any amount can help them continue helping students for their future
Go green
Roland Martin dropping jems. great interview.
The NAACP has and still doing a lot for the Black Community... people put up or shut up. smh. Easy for people to have something say!
america has always been a republic monarchy posing as a democracy
I really enjoyed this interview. So much information and history. Thanks Roland & TBC
NAACP IS there doing WHAT?🤔PLEASE I called and still have not received a return call.
Some employees unfortunately at a lot of foundations & companies drop the ball. We had work ethics & some still do. Customer service is really important. There is no excuse for you to have not received a call. My daughter went to offer free legal work to members of Jessie Jackson's Operation Push years ago & was sat in the corner & left as if she was not there. She finally left.

She paid for & mentored a young lady for two years & helped Cabrini Green girl to get her grades up.
😂🤣😂
Great lesson
Black Panthers was the last real black organization
I hear you, yet the BP's were for the people, not just black people.
If you do real work for your community or people the fbi will kill you no joke
PBT The real Black Organization that's still exist is the Nation of Islam when Dr.Khalid Abdul Muhammad passed the members in the black panther party ran back to the Nation of Islam my brother A.P.B.T.A.
Awesome Charlemagne please model yourself after Roland not Steve Harvey
This is an important interview.
Just cant get enough when you have Chalamagne and Roland in one space...
just like he said what are you doing? Alot of people critize but are you doing something other than speaking on the internet.
Iluvhaters! I agree. I became a teacher and was laid off and now only work part time in a daycare. I wish I had chosen a different career and could send money to my HBCU.
I love being black but it's hard. We have so many other responsibilities besides just living and society makes it so hard for us. We have to survive the hood, survive getting pulled over,do good in school, go to college, pay bills maintain our health, build our credit, give back to our community, fight for civil rights, support black business, deal with racism, find love, raise our kids, have a social live etc
June Butler to have a good life spiritually financially you have to work hard at it nothing is easy
June Butler One day you will look back and be glad you made the sacrifices you are making today. Keep the faith.
June Butler be glad u are not living during the times when the list was longer and more serious.
Ridiculous
Shut up.
I'm in West Virginia. All we have is the NAACP. We do have a Youth Organization. Whenever there is an issue...school, police brutality and prison they be on it. Mr. Martin has brought out sooo much.
Liked the video before I even watched it because I know Roland dropping some knowledge and checking people when they're wrong.
He schooled Charlemagne and Envy.
what is NCAACP DOING FOR FLINT
what have you done for Flint?
rtyujih nothimg , but for my city Camden the one the in NJ im doing a lot for. My city has it just as bad. So i dedicate myself where im at. how bout ?
rtyujih guess that means they haven't done shit
Google is my free my brother all you have to do is google
And the question still stands ... What is the NAACP doing for Flint?
" I'm praying for you", LoL
The Hartford, CT chapter was a mess with plenty of internal infighting. i became so tired of the local office being closed and without access to file employment discrimination complaint, that i called the Bmore national offices which supplied me with the State Chapter office in New York to register my frustrations, of which still were not resolved, due to each chapter being autonomous...smh
connect the dots Mr. Martin - we are locked out of the economic spectrum
I love him dont always agree but he is a very smart man
Roland is so brilliant!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Very Educational!
Donate money to Al Sharpton lol yea Envy you really don't know what's going on
very insightful
Charlemagne needs to give himself and Envy "Donkey of the Day" for questioning what the NAACP is doing and for saying they don't see what the organization is doing lately. There is never a stupid question to ask, but my gosh. How dare you question the NAACP.
Nah it’s true they’re not that visible, however if they wanted to know they can go on the NAACP’s website..
I can't stand these two idiots they don't Kno nothing
Black Banks should start funding investment classes in the black communities instead of sports leagues. This will build a legacy of power.
Roland Martin is pretty thorough on Black social, political and economic history
Got to love Roland
One of the best breakfast club interviews ever.
I went to a local NAACP meeting for the first time ever because someone was speaking that i know and i was AMAZED how invloved they were . and its not just them it was them in union with many other organizations, they were involved with everything in the city civically.
Good to hear. More people should open their minds & go instead of criticizing others.
Roland educate them and continue to speak the truth
Love Roland!!!
Hey Y'all! Just here promoting my socially conscious talk show for black ppl! Check out the topics and tune in! #blackownedmedia #blackempowerment
Good interview, rejuvenating ...
Because of hearing this, I ordered King's book. This was a great eye-opening interview.
Roland is ON POINT!!!
Sorry Roland but never in my life have I ever gotten into some shit and thought a split second about calling the NAACP. If I were in the south and found myself in trouble I'd call my homeboys MoonPie and Half-Dead.
CTFUUUU!!
This is what Monique was talking about. CTG (and Envy) has some serious 🦝 ways and it’s really disgusting. If it were up to him, we’d end up going 10 steps back. From him not valuing the NAACP to him wanting to completely give up on all robots and AI

It really hurts the institution. The Harvards, Yales and Notre Dames have millionaires to help their schools. Not the case for many schools.
Roland Martin is on point! He's is so educated! We need to financial support our communities 🙌🏿
Good interview indeed!
I love interviews like this...I'm mad as hell they cut it short
they need to bring Lavar Ball on ASAP
Capo Gainz last blk hero we have
Apparently you don't like people with substance and serious issues.
Desmond he isn't no black hero...wtf?
HE DO MOSTLY WEST COAST INTERVIEWS
Blac Ena-G I know you dumb niggas would rather be entertained and talk about sports than talk about important issues affecting the community.
Here come the fake listeners! Saturating the comment section 😏!
they saturate the comments to control the conversation and public opinion it's called operation sock puppet
Great convo
Way to educate The Breakfast Club and many others Professor Martin keep doing the good work ✊🏽
i hate that interviews like this never go viral.
You have to be able to listen, whether or not you like someone is irrelevant. Listening helps build your argument for or against your opponents and allies.
naacp is over 100 yrs old, what have they done significantly in the past 50. nothing too major, the urban leagues are not doing nothing significant. they all do some good but there are new orgs n programs that's only 20 30 yrs old that has done just as much for black people than naacp in its over 100 yr existence. explain that roland. it is on the public African community to support our own liberation, but these programs were supposed to b the catalyst in bringing forth the information for liberation.
I have sporadically donated to my hbcu since graduation. I decided last year to donate twice a year every year moving forward. I encourage everyone to do so even if you are only sending $15 a shot. DONATE to your HBCU, its important.
great interview, put a lot of things into perspective.
Wow... buy 1 share of stock vs. Nikes.... problem solved. We need to stop this respectability politics. The benign neglect and the misappropriation of our tax dollars is what the problem is, not the hair weave that got bought by a person with a few hundred dollars in the bank. Stocks are only beneficial if you buy at scale. You shouldn't invest if you don't have 3 months of finances saved up. If you aren't full invested in your retirement, you shouldn't be day trading. Most people in a gig economy that need immediate access to funds can't buy 1 share of $200 Netflix stock that might make them $20 in 2 or 3 years. This is feel good rhetoric.
just go bald roland, just… go bald.
Lynn W lol
Lynn W right 😂😂😂
I don't think he has the right shaped head that's probable why he's holding for dear life.
Lynn W nah he'd look like a thumb. He's gonna hold on to every strand like Homer Simpson
Lynn W Like a screen door during a tornado!! Just trying to stay on..
Yo y'all should have Jane Elliot on here
Rollie the boule bird has flew to Grace us with his presence.....
"I dance, I dance, I dance, I dance, I dance, I dance, I dance, Wit Massa"
@5:01
"if you're having trouble in a town, who do you call? "
Charlemagne: "Ghostbusters..."
😂😂😂😂
I hate that he said that in this serious conversation.
HBCU'S GOTTA STOP WITH ALL THAT RELIGIOUS BULLSHIT.
Absolutely Fantastic. A Beautiful Brother.
This interview was amazing!!!!! He is brilliant!
I participated in the ACT-SO Competition while in high school and it was my white art teacher who encouraged me to enter.
finally...love Roland
