When you are down, it doesn’t mean you are out. People of color have seen some of the darkest times in America. It is time to vote for our future. Through the eyes of Ali Siddiq, comes a conversation about what it means to be black in America, having self-effacement and voting to make a change. In this brand-new interview hosted by Roland Martin Unfiltered, we explore the dynamics of prison reform, registering to vote and urban communities. With the current administration, it feels they do not care about people of color. Your time is now to make a change by voting. - This is Be Woke.

I like the fact Roland remained quiet and allowed Ali tell his story!!
Me too because I only clicked on this video to hear Ali.
🔥
A little this A little that I PROMISE you I was AMAZED AT THAT!!! He's NEEEEVER that quiet!
First time for everything
This is what mutual respect between men looks like.
This is how an interview is conducted! Ask the guest a question and let THEM speak! 😊
Thank you for watching... Please share if you were moved! 🙏🏿
Dr. Cia Howard say it again!!!
Dr. Cia Howard I miss his show on TV One
Well, when you have common sense, that's how it should work. When you interview someone and keep letting your opinion be known, it defeats the purpose. It's not a debate. Do a follow up video if you want your contrary opinion to be known.
ucnhtmenow1 it’s also different when you’re discussing something real or important. If it’s just lighthearted pop culture nonsense or just shooting the shit then I think it’s cool to interject here and there but in this case dude had plenty to share and was allowed to do so
This was So Powerful. Ali is The Truth. Literally when I see Ali Siddiq, I just click.
Me too. This man is phenomenal.
Mee 3 truly amazing
Me 4 🤦🏽♀️🤪 I love him! A gem!
Crazy cause Siddiq means the truthful one
Me too evday anyday!!!!!!!!!🌞
Relatable: at age 19 (2 years in college), my dad told me I had to go, and kick me out on to the mean streets of Kingston, Jamaica. It was a dark episode that I have tried to forget; but, I made damn sure that my son, now 22, doesn't go through that. He wants to be a pathologist (very long course of study) and he is staying here, in this house, until he DECIDES to leave. The street is no joke,
I could Listen to Ali all day. I’m glad Roland did this interview. I’ve been wanting to hear Ali speak in this capacity. You can tell in his comedy that he’s an intellectual.
Yes he is. Reminds me of David Chappelle
This man carries a lot of pain. Comedy is probably like therapy for him. Blessup..
And a lesson to any person who like to understand the the African American struggle to this day !!!!!!!
( Systemic .......)
#BlessUpAli 🙏🏾💪🏿💯
"That place creates a type of human being you're really not prepared for" - Ali Siddiq
I really felt that
prison should be a place people dont want to go, but it also is a place where it can heal people. maybe a good teacher at the chpel is a good place to start, i guess prison ministry and deliverance service can be good for that.
Deep
People that have seen it know how true those words really are!
That's what he said...
I am so glad I found this dude. He is really amazing!!!!!!
Facts miss lady he speak truth no filter so real wit it a solid brutha
Me too
Yes, I’m so happy that I found him as well! As a teacher, I hear children that also romanticize “selling drugs!” Many kids, especially kids that have one or both parents incarcerated seem to regard prison as some type of rite of passage. I had a ten year old tell me that when he grows up, he will go to school, probably get locked up and then have a family! I was astounded, being a person from the toughest part of DC (SE), I’ve seen how kids try to deal ! I’ve taught elementary-high school and I thought I’d seen it all but this got me! Violence is something that I’ve always dealt with, I even witnessed a student being shot to death in my neighborhood high school when I taught there. Now that I’m back in elementary in Maryland and general education, I had a student ask me to walk them home because people r shooting. I said, “Well, as my mom told me, in elementary at that, “you better duck and run and you better not get shot!” I’ve seen so much so I also warn them to stop running towards the action, carry your asses in the opposite direction, that’s the only reason I’m alive today! Ali Saddiq is my new hero, thank u for not glorifying selling drugs and hustling!
Indeed!
I’ve come to realize in this life that it’s not the flesh and bones that we interact with on this plane of existence but the Spirit that dwells in each of us. Saddiq’s spirit is what shines beyond his comedy. I stand enlightened.
I Like that!! 👍🏾🙏🏾❤✌🏾
That's incredibly beautiful. Do you write stuff?
If y’all don’t know what “Mexican got on boots” mean, you’ve never laughed before 😩😂
my intro 2 Br. Ali
lmao
I was a corrections officer for 10yrs. "Mexicans got on boots" had me in tears! And it's 100% True!
Lmao I just found out yesterday
I ran when I read this comment. lol
When he said "you still got light in your eyes" - man that brought tears to my eyes. Lord help us all and help pull us up out of any discouragement and despair

Just chang ethe law. Its easy ! DO IT !
Man...This dude just instantly became my favorite comedian....Loved this interview!! Roland laid low and let my man tell his story...awesome!
He had a show a little while ago, where he had the entire crowd crying and then laughing in the same Phrase. Lol #Amazing
I didn't know just how much substance was behind this comedian until today. Much respect. I would love to sit down and just listen to him tell stories.
The more I see of him the more I like him. He has an amazing story to tell and he tells it well.
I haven’t been so locked into a person just talking 4 a long time! On to pt 2!
Jon Samuels. Agreed
I love how Roland is letting this man speak. He has alot to say and it makes sense.
Wow Roland just let Ali talk powerful!!!!
"You still got light in your eyes"..
That was an uppercut.
Ali SIddiq ain't a comedian. That man's a PREACHER.

#facts
All day
He’s a griot. He’s my kin.
He is a Imam
"You still got light in your eyes." Lord have mercy.
That was deep
I'm glad he's turning the lights on against these rappers glorifying prison!!! I'm so tired of that and hope this brother makes a major difference.
How don’t more people know this man?
In due time
pozzy level It’s been more than 20yrs tho🤷🏾♂️
My generation needs you. Men 15 plus needs you. Keep using your comedy to unlock minds. Your comedy is in a league of its own!
If he was born in a different time and place we would be learning about him next to MLK, Rosa Parks, and Malcolm X.
Thank you for watching... Please share and subscribe if you were moved! 🙏🏿
Yes! Glad I’m not the only one who see’s that in him... anticipation... can’t wait to see if he brings forth a productive movement. I’d love to be a part of it..
I firmly believe this is why it is 2022 he is still dope and his stuff from 7 yrs ago makes sense. He is the realest
Some are put here to follow, others to lead. This man is a leader.
As-salaamu Alaikum.

Goddamn, Ali is a great man. All his stories were captivating. The way he speaks too, very real.
This brother is such a great inspiration!😀
When you need to go to prison to learn about voting, you know something is wrong about your "community"...
If that was your take away, something is wrong with you.
Thinking like this shows how unaware humans can be.. it takes pressure to make a diamond... you haven’t had enough pressure I’m sure... when you fall on hard times and you go thru your pressure chamber and there is NO way out and you can’t control anything around you I hope you come out with the insight this man has. Not many people can walk thru fire and do it with this kind of spirit... This may not relate to you but being a smart talker doesn’t help being a woke walker is what this world needs... if you’re gonna be a “talker” at least bring something useful to the table... all I’m trying to say is you missed the point of what this man is trying to do. You think he’s not aware what the problem is? Obviously it’s the main message. He’s a fairly new face but I think he’s on to something he’s riding the rails rn but I still follow his work cuz I can’t wait to see the movement he creates once he finds his groove.. I believe his goal is very close to Dave Chappell.. he just needs time... LOVE ❤️
@@velvetrope6561 I wonder what is wrong with you, for a change. The whole interview is a gem, but this one statement above on voting is spot on. Yes, there is a lot of wrong with the US as a nation and a system. You have not even noticed how you have been transformed into this..
thing that can be best described by the new brave world and nazi Reich. Bezmenov was right. You are blind sleepy Joes, asleep even when awoke. Only a handful of people that realize what is going on. Just like in Germany in the not so distant past, and present. Are you aware that eugenics as an academic movement was developed in the US, then was TRIED OUT in Europe, then via Operation Paperclip, Nasa, Planned Parenthood, etc. was brought BACK home to be perfected. What is wrong with your voting system? Everything. Makes little difference who you choose. Your arrogance and ignorance has ripened. The fruit will be bitter. The problem is you have been exporting it like crazy.
Have you seen any old interview with Nikolas Schreck, Radio Werewolf?
Watch:
The Thinning, Hunger Games, The Divergent, I pet Goat II, AI roadmap, etc.
And then you will stop criticizing people who CAN identify the American Nightmare. Wokism is its part. You reap, what you sow, dear. Enjoy the meal. As a European and Christian, I have eaten enough of it.
@@NayaJeevan007 I will repeat my comment because you touched my nerve by critisising a wise reflection.

Decades of systematic racism at work.
ABSOLUTELY amazing to see a piece of coal enter the system and come out a sparkling diamond. Blessings to you my King, may God continue to bless and keep you.

So true comment...
He said at the beginning, he was supposed to be out the house by 18, like wow, he probably didnt get any support and had to sell drugs to try to secure his future, very disturbing. This guy is a survivor. WHAT AN AMAZING MAN, WHAT an awesome thing he did for the rest of the inmate, God bless.
That's black culture it's sad that we set our kids up for failure
Stargazing Loner that’s not black culture & some definitely have but certain circumstances we had no control of
@@user-js7mo3wy4z but it is though
@@stargazingloner4449 No it's not. Lots of black people have their kids still in their house and others set them up to do things when they're ready to leave. It's also not uncommon for non black people to have that whole tough love approach and kick out their kids at 18. That is definitely not somethign I would claim as a black thing.
I watched so fast bc,
" Mexican got on boots"
👍👍👍😁😁😁😁
Michelle Green why y’all keep saying that? I’m lost!
@@ANGELSLVME He did a story on This Is Not Happening. It's on UA-cam. Just search Mexican Got On Boots
You’re on to something... something big is going to happen soon with all the right WOKE souls we’re gonna change the world on a large scale.... I’m calling it into my reality that someone who has power to make major change will see this comment and reach out me... it’s burning inside me to get out what I know and spread it.. very inspirational. Thank you for wisdom. ⭐️
Love Ali could listen to this dude talk all day!!
Thank you for watching... Please share and subscribe if you were moved! 🙏🏿
I don't even know what my favorite part of this video is because it's just that good. This was SOOOO GOOD!!
This is an incredible interview. Ali’s story is so interesting and inspiring.
F60541! Five years ago I served a 12 year sentence in the California Department of Corrections. He's speaking truth.
Mr. Martin, thank you so much for letting him talk. Many interviewers would cut him off to say their two pieces. Thank you for letting him expound. He is a master storyteller and you a great interviewer.
I absolutely love this guy! I've only just recently discovered his stand-up and his background and I think he is hilarious. This was such a great interview!
This is a really important conversation and I'm really glad to see it being had with 2 intelligent people who could have a little fun but still emphasize how important it really is. Great interviews.
Ali, you are a true blessing! Please continue to do what you do, you are an inspiration to so many.

I have loved Ali Siddiq since the first time I heard him speak. He is truly a messenger and truly knows his assignment in compliance. God bless him and Thank you, Roland Martin for this beautiful platform.
I could listen to him ALL DAY!!! A real one INDEED and THE GREATEST STORYTELLER/COMEDIAN FASHO!! SHOUTOUT HOUSTON🤘🏾💯❤️‼️
You see the emotions in his eyes change as soon as he says his number?🙏👁
Thank you for watching... Please share and subscribe if you were moved! 🙏🏿
I thought that he was going to cry and I even choked up hearing him repeat it
It sure did. 😢
679346
This guy knew God had and has PURPOSE for his LIFE!!
He created his life by himself, dont take that away from him and say god did it.
Camillia Jones Ameen
If I'm not mistaken, Ali is Muslim so I guess you meant Allah has PURPOSE for his LIFE!!
Camillia Jones so God’s purpose for his life was for him to sell drugs and destroy the lives of his own people so he can ultimately do comedy?
Allah prepares whom he wants to be Muslim. No man can do that.
This needs way more airplay.
I would NEVER kick my son out the house at 18.... so sad
The first time I say Ali special this year (2022) and I've been checking his video. His stories are his real life and I respect him as a person and comedian because of that fact.
Every school, kid programs and jail programs need to watch this. Deep
I'm just aquainting myself with this brother and I want to know more about him. A potential legend right here
I love listening to this man. He’s not a comedian to me anymore, he’s a prophet. He is the voice of us who have had to serve our debt to society. No matter the background we came from. Once your an inmate that’s all you will ever be in the systems eyes.
Thank you sincerely brother for everything you do for us fans and especially the convicts watching.
I pray love and prosperity for you family and your future.
I love this
Needs to b on national tv often
Help people think
I love the way he speaks
Thank you for watching... Please share and subscribe if you were moved! 🙏🏿
“Who are, They, Them and Those”- Ali Siddiq
HOW is Ali Siddiq not bigger right now? He is SO FUNNY and has an amazing story. He was able to speak to SEVERAL UNITS and evoke change so much so that an entirely other ethnicity offered to join them. THAT is powerful AF!! I have never been to prison and I have never been to jail but I do have family that has been to both places and came back fk'd up worse than when they went in. OLD PEOPLE ARE KEY. They can keep us (any poor black and brown person, yes black people need to unite but all minorities need to just have some compassion and understand it's about solidarity) from repeating the same mistakes. They can help us identify the traps and pitfalls that they got stuck in. I freakin love Ali!!
Patricia Busch too powerful of a message don’t want this man speaking.
Love Roland & Ali! Saw this back when it originally aired, powerful! This type of honesty is life changing!
Brilliant brothers here!!!❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️
Ali ppl NEED to hear your story my friend... loved what you said about meek mill ( a lot of ppl won't).
I cry every time I watch this. I pray Ali forgets that number and be free of that.
He probably won't ever forget it. That's a number that's burned in memory. If you didn't know that number you could be beat to a pulp or killed. It's something most won't understand unless you yourself had a number.( A SBI# and state#) He seems like he's doing good though. Those scars made him strong. But I do hope he forgets that number even though he probably won't.
I remember washing clothes on a Saturday in New Orleans at a laundromat. That was around the corner from the St. Thomas Projects. A older guy looked at me and said you are different from these other guys in this neighborhood. I have been watching you and you got that glow in your eyes, and you know something that they don't. Now what you need to do is start sharing that information with the rest of these guys. I am not one to listen to just anybody but you know when somebody is coming from a deep place. That neighborhood was crime and drug infested, with crackheads and high unemployment. Grown men would always be begging for money. So I took the old guys advice and started telling folks little things here and there, and how to make money. That was when Temporary Services had started popping up everywhere. I told some guys to go there and they could work and earn money because begging for small amounts of change was nothing for a grown man. I talked to a guy that used to date a sister of a friend. Now this guy was hooked on crack, but talked to him about how he used to be. And that he could live like that again, he actually stopped using drugs and started working again. I am just now realizing why I was put in that neighborhood. I even had a lady friend tell me that people light up when they see you. So being an older guy myself, now I never miss an opportunity to lend advice to a young person. Today I encounter a lot of young ladies that be crying and stressing about young men. I tell them to stay strong and be patient. That if a guy doesn't treat you right then he is not the man for you. And that you will find someone much better that will love and respect the woman that you are just be patient. Because most young men and some ladies too don't even recognize a good thing when they see it anyway. They are too caught up in your body type, or material things. Because we don't live with stuff, we live with people, and it is very important who they are,and how they treat us.
Wow. Powerful message...
I watched Mexican got on boots and been watching this guy for four days. Can’t get enough. We speak the same language.
I’m not a fan of Roland but this is Ali Siddiq!!!! 💕💕💕
All I can say is wow! Rise Brothers!
THANK YOU MR. MARTIN THANK YOU VERY MUCH
No sé por qué, pero este comediante me hace reír mucho pero también me hace reflexionar y me contagia con unas ganas de ser mejor persona y de tratar mejor al prójimo. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
What a powerful, impactful interview with Ali. I Love him as a comedian but enjoyed him sharing his life experiences.💯💯😇
This whole interview had my heart laughing and crying at the same time!!!
I could Listen to this man and his wisdom for hours. Every time I hear him talk my respect deepens. I found him through his comedy, but his conversation helps me grow as a person!
It damn near killed me hearing him talk about that fucking number. Never been and don't EVER want to go to prison. I joined the military to put myself out of a dark path. Glad to see this man where he is now.
WOW! LOVE HIS TRANSPARENCY!!!
Everyday I find another reason to love and support ali siddiq I've shown my mom newly 75 years young my 65 year young aunt down to my children 27,20,,18,13,9 all of his interviews and stand up my favorite comedy since he graced the 85south show I cried laughed and listened to his every word lord have I grown
I just discovered this guy today. He's awesome
One of the realist men I love listening to him speak! He providing life experience at his expense !
"You still got light in your eyes."
Praise God
Only time in my life I've ever voted was for Barack Obama's first election. I've never considered myself a voter but I subscribed to this channel and now I want to vote more because of the inspiration of the brother Ali Siddiq 💯❌💯 💪
Fantastic interview. Ali is a is an awesome human being. Learned so much.
I love to hear Ali talk that talk. I could listen to him and DL Huguley alllllllll day! Just truth speakers and justice carriers. Realistic, hilarious, practical, and knowledgeable!!!!! Love Ali Siddiq❤
Ali Siddiq for president.
🫡 Total Homage and Respect to you! I'm officially a fan of your excellence, authenticity, transparency, and Comedy, Ali Siddiq! 🤜🏾🔥💯❤️💯🔥🤛🏾
My heart just sank when you said "15 years" at 19. I can only hope you got out early for Good Behavior. You are such a hilarious street smart intellectual. Blessings Brother ❤️
He is so inspirational.
Ali Siddiq is a star. He's funny and therefore a great comedian. But he's bigger than that. He's smart. And he's conscious. It's so easy to respect him and he deserves it.
The "tough on crime" is very important to study
The more I learn about him the more I believe that there is hope for our young men!! And the fact that his comedy is based off true events makes him even more gifted at what he does ❤️💜
I need Part 2 of this interview ASAP
Wow this is amazing I love hearing him share his story 🤔🤗

I thoroughly enjoyed that interview!! You've got a fan for life right here Ali!
Ali is such a fascinating person. I enjoy listening to him and what he has to say. Wise man..
This is a great story of not allowing the super hard knocks, knock you out. Thanks for sharing this. A very similar thing happened to Malcolm X in prison. He came out with determination and purpose. This is why we can't stop encouraging ourselves or our children.
Hey, I appreciate your encouragement of others for the betterment of themselves. I also appreciate the older generation of doing the same for you. Thank you for sharing some of your life stories sir.

And I'm here for ALL of it!
I like Ali but slow ur roll buddy lol. Chappelle’s on king of comedy status now. Ali’s done some great things in his life tho.
Much respect for what this man did in prison. Many blessings. Wow.
This man's story has encouraged me to get back in my bible.
Beautiful.
That's very beautiful because he is Muslim. This right here proves that boundaries in religions are man made. Salam - May you and your loved one always be under God's protection, happy, healthy, united and prosperous. Much love. May you spread your love too and touche as many people as you can- stay happy friend
Ali was helping with prison reform from the inside, that’s inspiring.
Love his stories! 👋 Im glad he is doing what he love!
