Problem solved: an officer doesn't have to live in the community but he has to get to know that community and i mean everybody including the one's with mental issues. Like a true incident where i was accused of pulling a knife on someone with issues but everybody knew it was her except for the officer. I lost my license as a Security Officer because of her.
But he needs to be specific...i.e. The U.S government should pay descendants of slavery the $17 Trillion in restorative reparations owed and needed by this bottom caste. This has to be a lineage based project that can be paid out in direct payments (not programs & so called community lending,etc.) He needs to go to ados101.com & you will come back and see how confused cube is vs. how clear Yvette Carnell & Antonio Moore (Tone Talks) are with data and lineage based information.✌🏾🇺🇸#ADOS
Didn’t take the time to do my research on this when it mattered. But there is no excuse. I am here to see this actually happen they way it should happen Our way on our terms. Stop letting our enemies call the shots for us 💯

Shouts out to Cube, he is doing more than his part ! He is being a strong steadfast part of the Black community! God bless his efforts along with others and shall it persevere and be prosperous in its endeavors!

Yes Doctor Claude Anderson is the guy that is why Ice Cube is working with him. Cube is wise and Smart enough to surround himself with the best people to help him. I like the Fact that the Breakfast Club showed Cube love and respect because I am tired of looking at and listening to all these Black Celebrities hating on and criticizing my young brother Ice Cube. Cube is doing all he can to help black people like me. He is all about his people. He loves his people and his people love him back. People like DL Hugley need to Shut The Hell Up. Hugley needs Stick to doing comedy. The two young gentlemen and the pretty young lady on the Breakfast Club have done a great job on all their intetviews that I have had a chance to watch. Thank You!
I'm with Cube. Appreciate everything he does to make this planet a better place. Would be awesome to travel with a black-owned airline to a black-owned resort next to a black-owned casino across from a black-owned movie theater that plays movies produced by a black-owned studio...
Hey Cube, Before you finalize the “Contract With Black America”, can you PLEASE consult with Dr. Claud Anderson? He actually already developed a Black Agenda in the early 2000’s in book form called “PowerNomics: The National Plan to Empower Black America”. We GREATLY appreciate what you are doing for our culture, it is not going unnoticed.

IT'S amazing that this topic does not include Dr. CLAUD ANDERSON AND HIS POWERNOMICS BLUEPRINT...FOR WHAT CONVERSATION IS ABOUT. HOW IS IT THAT WE ALWAYS OVERLOOK THIS ELDER THAT WAS FOREVER AT THE FOREFRONT OF THIS PARTICULAR TOPIC FOR BLACK PEOPLE.
@@gilbertocoote1680 You are absolutely right Gilberto! Dr. Andersen was way ahead of his time. His last interview with the breakfast club proves that. We have to build that five story house that Dr. Andersen talks about all the time. 1st floor economics, 2nd floor law enforcement/justice reform, 3rd floor buy your local politicians with your collective dollars, 4th floor buy your media outlets to sell your products, 5th and final floor educate your folks on how to run these floors in your house!

I'm loving the Black Contract, but i hope that they added to it, that police should be evaluated mentally & physically mandatorily every 1 to 2 years. MENTAL HEALTH EVALUATION IS A MUST!!!
cube said he will need some more refinement from proffesionalswho knwos how to structure this kind of contracts. So anything that is useful for the black community can be added in.
Police...a large portion of them are X military. They wear bullets around their waist and across their shoulders for years. They have lead poisoning. It's a mentally unstable brain damaged person walking around fully loaded with the authority to kill. We know what lead poisoning does. Just saying

@@dantheman4838 typically most people are so busy with their own lives that it's hard to stop and see what's going on with others and even if they want to get involved, who has the time or energy? I'm definitely guilty of that.
Envy was 100% right about the community needing our own structure. Schools, neighborhoods, churches, etc. So we can teach our history, keep our dollars in our communities, and lift each other up as one.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 segregation personified right here Cube in gated community surrounded by white people he went into full "black flight" mode when he got his cheddar
@an dy No, he is talking about what you Whites, Asians and Latins do. You support each other. You limit other races in your communities. You vote primarily for your own ethnicities in elections. You treat your own race better than you treat other ethnicities.
Cube knows all to well who really controls the narrative now doesnt he? Check his embarrassing apologies to those who are the real power in America. Should hang with Nick Cannon. Gengster AF!!!!!!!!
I totally agree. Ice Cube’s transparency in his narrative was like a Bible for me when I & my young family of 3 children & partner was harassed for 7 long years with panic buttons installed in our home. I resent paying UK taxes to the police given that we are not given the same level of service... it’s an absolute travesty & we are still enslaved due to the still earning revenue for giving us absolutely nothing. I just wish Nubian People were strong enough to stand together so tightly that they withdraw their earned Money & REALLY TRY TO NOT SPEND THEIR MONEY IN THE OPPRESSORS BUSINESSES & THEY WILL SOON WAKE UP WHEN YOU HIT THEM IN THEIR POCKETS.
Well then you're not a main stream artist because they're all controlled because the people that they use to get their music out from a.k.a. the platform isn't theirs neither is the television companies the radio companies the satellite companies these people control everything and then they're controlled by Royal elites
Cube as with many other black americans that sincerely care about the well being and state of black americans needs to be patterned after and then multiplied. So that there becomes too many with a purpose for them to single out one Ice Cube or Kaepernick all alone on an island left needing protection. There are too many good human beings to take us all out.

I love this interview with Ice Cube. I can see that he’s really matured and he did his homework 📚 very wise! Yes of course we need other role models for our children besides entertainers but too many are silent and not speaking about real issues affecting our community and he’s willing to do that so I give him much respect ✊🏾
In real sense... he was never a "G" just rapped about it like Nas. The are both gifted writers. He says it himself he was in a somewhat good life situation... school, higher learning etc. Never was a street dude.
Amen Cube. Those who truly want equality for everybody. Should not find a problem with sitting down at the table, and hashing it out. Lets be about it, and not waste to much more time talking about it. And go out there and GET HER DONE.

@@vanessajones3508 The only oppressor's that exist are people that live their life thinking they're oppressed in a country that is a land of opportunity for every race. People need to take personal accountability and build their life up. How you view and feel about people, the world and America is within one's self. Not some false pretense that someone else is somehow keeping one down.
I LOVE how Cube keeps pointing out that we have to take the "hate" out of the effort to change. He said "reconstruct" not "break down". And, I agree with Angela - you have to have a plan. I'm just praying we can come together to create a plan and reconstruct.
When I was in Elementary I named him as one of my hero. He still is. His last album is fire all the songs. He should have made a video for Nonbelievers.
There our hero but all famous blacks have done up to now is come out for a few second doing protest ,but go back to taking our money and keeping there business in white community. I hope Ice Cube is going to change that.
Awesome interview, I have been waiting for movements like this to happen and not just read about them in the past. It is our turn to carry the mantle and widen paths that have already been paved but were forgotten or ignored.

WHY didn't Charlamagne and his crew mention to Ice Cube that Dr. Claud Anderson (Scholar, Elder, Politician, Business Man, Educator, Entreprenuer, Righteous, author of "Black Labor/White Wealth", "Powernomics", "Dirty Little Secrets I & II", and "Black Reader") have the plan already written, in place, and ready to activate. Peace and Love Family!
Exact! I was hoping they would recall and connect. Dr. Claud Anderson specifically asked them during his interview to use the platform to help him get his plan into schools and make society aware.
26:40 (ish) Man it's crazy how the stream cutout when Cube said QUALIFIED IMMUNITY... 🤔 We all need to understand what that is and what they're doing with Qualified Immunity now.

How can regular citizens support his plans that he mentioned ? I would love to read up on it and even spread awareness. I love everything he had to say about reform for the prison system and police departments
Same here. I follow him on social media and plan on visiting his page more to see if he has links or additional info about his contract for black america
If this is a contract with Black America, he is speaking from the position of the government. He has no authorization/power to make any contract valid. His proposals are things for the government to do, which he nor we, have much power to promise and fulfill. A contract with Black America would have obligations for Black people to fore-fill, which I don't hear. That's why I don't see this as a contract at all. People may think this is not important, and just a matter of semantics, but it illustrates the mistakes we continue to make. Most or all of his proposals are already part of the Democrat platform, as most were already a part of most of the candidates for President platform. Black leadership has been proposing a 'Black Agenda' for the government for around 10 years, if not more. You can find many 'Black Agendas' that have recently been proposed by individuals and groups on the internet. This is just a lot of duplication. We wail against the "system" of so-called White Supremacy, but we are anything but systemic and coordinated in our response. A lot of people are talking about "being on code" - whatever that means. The two individuals who made the term White so-called Supremacy a household word - Neely Fuller Jr. and the late Dr. Francis Cress Welshing, advocated that we compensate for this system that works against us. They put forth basic behavior/practices that we should avoid, and others that we should employ. Implied in this code-system is the basic concept that we have to take special considerations for things - that a people or person might not normally have to. This is the special challenge that our unique situation/condition presents us with. Many of us don't want to accept this really, and think we can get out of this situation, using the same efforts/standards one normally would use in life. The talk of a 'Black Agenda' and 'Contracts' with the government, put the cart before the horse, IMO. The individual Black person has no other role in this contract than we would normally have - to vote and correspond with your political representatives and express our wishes, opinions, etc. on things to them. Before any contract with the government can be effective, Black people themselves have to have a functional Contract/Agenda between ourselves. The basic contract Black people have with ourselves is our values and shared goals aspiration. This is normally reflected in the culture of a people. Right now this cultural-contract is being anything but being honored, because there is in fact no contract. There are no basic set of common values and goals we all share and agree to adhere to and work to achieve. If we ever had any semblance of a contract, it no longer exist. Evidence of this is the generational divide and disconnect, and more specifically, the issue of "respectability politics", especially as it is embodied in the question of Black people killing one another. Some today, speak of this as a taboo. Many dismiss it as not a legitimate concern. They argue that no one talks about White people killing White people or any other people killing each other. They add "people kill people they live near". They act as if White people were the ones who always talked about us killing each other. The phrase Black on Black crime or violence goes back to at least the 1970's, when the late Congressmen from Md. Parren J.Mitchell created the slogan 'Us Killing Us Equals Genocide' to protest the high numbers of homicides being committed in so many of our communities. Hip-Hop in the 80's had their 'Stop The Violence Movement'. No one said to these anti-violence efforts that it doesn't matter, and certainly not because no one else is expressing a similar concern for their people. What is going on with us? What reality are we living in? This argument being made today makes no sense. It is like a nation engaged in a civil war while being invaded by an enemy. Older people can recall our parents say to us, when we were children - "just because someone else go and jump off a cliff, are you going to do it to? Us killing each other under our circumstances, is like us following people who jump of a cliff with a parachute or bungee cord attached to them, while we follow and jump with nothing attached to us, to break our fall. If we can't all agree on the basic standard of valuing our very lives, what can we hope to achieve collectively? We have a basic failure to communicate. We don't even perceive basic really the same.
Charlamagne I dare you say people don't respect the police because NWA! People don't respect the police because of their actions. Have you seen the videos or been harassed personally?
Everyone talks about that just because u don’t research the organization that are doin work there doesn’t mean the work or being done!! What are u doin for black on black crime

Would love to see Ice cube get together with Dr claud Anderson. celebrities need to be the voices of those that’s been doing this for decades. I’m sure he’s reached out to some leaders but didn’t hear him shout them out. Thank you king for what you’re doing. 🙏🏾
What businesses do Claud Anderson operate? Have any of our celebrities with money or our entrepreneurs, tried to acquire any of those casino properties in Atlantic City that closed down years ago? Are we serious about economic development?
@@siriuslyspeaking9720 first of all claud Anderson is an elder over 70yrs old. He's retired & his work speaks for itself. There's not 1 black man that successfully created more jobs, opportunities, & govt positions for blacks that's ever walked this earth. Literally a living legend. Read up. Peace
@@davidelrockafella2870 IMO, Anderson and those who promote him or any other advocate for economic development ,need to present his business credentials as much as they do his books. The businesses themselves he created are more powerful than the rhetoric that is most often seen of him on social media. I recently saw a video where he says he developed a resort in Ghana, I believe it was. And that is not making any money at this time or in bankruptcy. Don't recall how old the video is, it may be current, and the pandemic may be the reason for the financial straits it's in. Those casino property always seemed like a good investment for a Black entrepreneur, maybe climate change makes it not so much any more, I don't know, but entertainment is an area in which Black people know something about, in fact I think our performing and visual arts should or could be the foundation of any Black economic development. Economic development that don't directly translate into prosperous communities that were once impoverished , would be no different from what we have now - a form of trickle down economics that never reach the people most in need of uplifting. We should be engaging in a low cost form of Black gentrification. marketing our artist and entertainers right in the communities in which they live. We should draw people from around the world into our communities to partake of our culture. Why can't African-Americans have a form of a tourist industry? We like to brag about how the world loves our culture and copies us, if this is true they will come into our communities to consume it, and their consumer dollars could benefit already existing businesses in our communities. Wealth is relative, and to have relative wealth, we must acquire, as much of other people's money as they get of ours. As it stands now, they consume our culture in their own venues outside of our communities. Our culture is our most plentiful and marketable economic producing resource, that is available to broad spectrum of our people. If we can't take advantage of and manage this gold mine, what can we capitalize on? Our venues don't have to be plush - just clean, comfortable and safe. Of course we would have to end the violence in many of our communities for this to be successful. Black businesses don't do a good job of advertising and marketing. We need to put more focus on the fundamentals of business and stop with all the social media gossip that to many so-called economic development advocates engage in. It doesn't help the trust factor, that I believe is a major reason the call for the support of Black banks and businesses, has not been successful over a span of nearly half a century, if not more.
@@siriuslyspeaking9720 man you kind of jumped around there. As I was responding to what seemed as disrespect towards someone who has solidified his legacy, dare I say in stone. It's like questioning what Dr. J or MJ did for basketball. Again if you are not familiar with his accomplishments just say that. He literally got more black judges elected in several different states than anyone has since he got out of politics. He helped Atlanta become a mecca for black business, from when the Atlanta airport got built to many of the businesses in that airport that many don't even know are black owned. Comes from a family of successful black bus owners. It only failed after people thought it was better to be accepted by whites & able to use white buses as if white ice is cooler than Black ice. Which goes into your point about him highlighting failed business due to "blacks" being apprehensive about supporting their own businesses because the desire to want to frequent their white counterparts. Allot of the other stuff you mentioned I agree with, I just felt complelled to correct you on your critique of claud Anderson. Do your research on his business acumen & what he's actually achieved & accomplished notoriety for from whites & blacks for what he's done for blacks in this country
@@davidelrockafella2870 I've seen Anderson speak of his position in the government, and a little of his businesses. My criticisms were more of the numerous people who advocate for him. The way they present it just sounds too much like a snake oil salesman. Economics really is not that complicated. Can you deny that Black businesses break one of the fundamental rules of business - advertising marketing? Those who advocate for him, seem to be marketing his books more so than economic development itself, and again they do a better job of marketing his books than economic development, IMO. In all that he has done, and it is a lot - the crucial question becomes - why has it not made a difference in the lives of those at the very bottom? Atlanta has the same poverty rate as most other cities, large numbers of us live in. Does capitalism dictate that whatever we do, in terms of economic, there will always be a significant number of people with no so-called wealth at all? Has the majority of Black people simply concluded that they can do fine without a committed economic relationship with other Black people? This nearly half century old campaign to support Black financial institutions saw the majority of them go out of business, if I'm not mistaken. At some point we have to take a different approach, if we still think group economics is a possibility. What has been consciously absent from the discussion of Black economics and politics is the third component crucial to social groups - culture. Politics and economics have failed us because we approach our societal woes backwards. Politics and economics grow out of culture. I believe our culture is flawed, and thus our politics and economics.

Well you have to not have a mob mentality and let the facts come out which usually takes some time but the way people are today, they don't wait for facts and want someone to pay for something that might have been justified. On top of that when something is ruled justified, don't cry that the outcome that was given wasn't the outcome you wanted. Instead of teaching cops about Civil Rights history, how about we teach people how to actually be Civil?
that's one option but in the contract it has a statute for an insurance fund that cops pay into - it takes care of the trials, and settlements that are currently laid through our tax dollars I think there's some law that makes it so pensions can't be touched - but I agree the monies should come from the cops and not the ppl to kinda offset that, the cops (and firefighters, and soldiers and first responders, etc.) who are doing a good job, and not bringing these lawsuits, should be allowed to pay less taxes - those jobs are hard af, but they're essential to have a fully functioning society - especially, if they're done right with integrity ending Qualified Immunity - and having the bad apples cost these depts money over and over means they'll have to start weeding them out - leaving the right ones in the right positions the overhaul encompasses A LOT - and a LOT of it starts with 💰 🤑

“A lot of sabotage with our progress” thank you Cube! People acting like Black Americans have never attempted to build our community. Even when we do we are still fighting outside forces to keep it.
Once the document is finalized Cube has to get signatures that proves that the people are behind this. Not just give it to political leaders. Once you have the signatures it has to be taken seriously. Then we should hold our vote until it is adopted.
Kay Leequese yeah I think it is still a work in progress. Cube needs to make it digital so that and send to emails so that we get the signatures digitally. And keep it on the hush until finalized.

But he needs to be specific...i.e. The U.S government should pay descendants of slavery the $17 Trillion in restorative reparations owed and needed by this bottom caste. This has to be a lineage based project that can be paid out in direct payments (not programs & so called community lending,etc.) He needs to go to ados101.com & you will come back and see how confused cube is vs. how clear Yvette Carnell & Antonio Moore (Tone Talks) are with data and lineage based information.✌🏾🇺🇸#ADOS

Hey Cube,
Before you finalize the “Contract With Black America”, can you PLEASE consult with Dr. Claud Anderson? He actually already developed a Black Agenda in the early 2000’s in book form called “PowerNomics: The National Plan to Empower Black America”.
We GREATLY appreciate what you are doing for our culture, it is not going unnoticed.

I resent paying UK taxes to the police given that we are not given the same level of service... it’s an absolute travesty & we are still enslaved due to the still earning revenue for giving us absolutely nothing.

www.yumpu.com/en/document/read/63585404/cwba
@@Blaque_Magick Thank you!
If this is a contract with Black America, he is speaking from the position of the government. He has no authorization/power to make any contract valid. His proposals are things for the government to do, which he nor we, have much power to promise and fulfill. A contract with Black America would have obligations for Black people to fore-fill, which I don't hear. That's why I don't see this as a contract at all. People may think this is not important, and just a matter of semantics, but it illustrates the mistakes we continue to make. Most or all of his proposals are already part of the Democrat platform, as most were already a part of most of the candidates for President platform. Black leadership has been proposing a 'Black Agenda' for the government for around 10 years, if not more. You can find many 'Black Agendas' that have recently been proposed by individuals and groups on the internet. This is just a lot of duplication. We wail against the "system" of so-called White Supremacy, but we are anything but systemic and coordinated in our response. A lot of people are talking about "being on code" - whatever that means. The two individuals who made the term White so-called Supremacy a household word - Neely Fuller Jr. and the late Dr. Francis Cress Welshing, advocated that we compensate for this system that works against us. They put forth basic behavior/practices that we should avoid, and others that we should employ. Implied in this code-system is the basic concept that we have to take special considerations for things - that a people or person might not normally have to. This is the special challenge that our unique situation/condition presents us with. Many of us don't want to accept this really, and think we can get out of this situation, using the same efforts/standards one normally would use in life. The talk of a 'Black Agenda' and 'Contracts' with the government, put the cart before the horse, IMO. The individual Black person has no other role in this contract than we would normally have - to vote and correspond with your political representatives and express our wishes, opinions, etc. on things to them. Before any contract with the government can be effective, Black people themselves have to have a functional Contract/Agenda between ourselves. The basic contract Black people have with ourselves is our values and shared goals aspiration. This is normally reflected in the culture of a people. Right now this cultural-contract is being anything but being honored, because there is in fact no contract. There are no basic set of common values and goals we all share and agree to adhere to and work to achieve. If we ever had any semblance of a contract, it no longer exist. Evidence of this is the generational divide and disconnect, and more specifically, the issue of "respectability politics", especially as it is embodied in the question of Black people killing one another. Some today, speak of this as a taboo. Many dismiss it as not a legitimate concern. They argue that no one talks about White people killing White people or any other people killing each other. They add "people kill people they live near". They act as if White people were the ones who always talked about us killing each other. The phrase Black on Black crime or violence goes back to at least the 1970's, when the late Congressmen from Md. Parren J.Mitchell created the slogan 'Us Killing Us Equals Genocide' to protest the high numbers of homicides being committed in so many of our communities. Hip-Hop in the 80's had their 'Stop The Violence Movement'. No one said to these anti-violence efforts that it doesn't matter, and certainly not because no one else is expressing a similar concern for their people. What is going on with us? What reality are we living in? This argument being made today makes no sense. It is like a nation engaged in a civil war while being invaded by an enemy. Older people can recall our parents say to us, when we were children - "just because someone else go and jump off a cliff, are you going to do it to? Us killing each other under our circumstances, is like us following people who jump of a cliff with a parachute or bungee cord attached to them, while we follow and jump with nothing attached to us, to break our fall. If we can't all agree on the basic standard of valuing our very lives, what can we hope to achieve collectively? We have a basic failure to communicate. We don't even perceive basic really the same.

What businesses do Claud Anderson operate? Have any of our celebrities with money or our entrepreneurs, tried to acquire any of those casino properties in Atlantic City that closed down years ago? Are we serious about economic development?
@@siriuslyspeaking9720 first of all claud Anderson is an elder over 70yrs old. He's retired & his work speaks for itself. There's not 1 black man that successfully created more jobs, opportunities, & govt positions for blacks that's ever walked this earth. Literally a living legend. Read up. Peace
@@davidelrockafella2870 IMO, Anderson and those who promote him or any other advocate for economic development ,need to present his business credentials as much as they do his books. The businesses themselves he created are more powerful than the rhetoric that is most often seen of him on social media. I recently saw a video where he says he developed a resort in Ghana, I believe it was. And that is not making any money at this time or in bankruptcy. Don't recall how old the video is, it may be current, and the pandemic may be the reason for the financial straits it's in. Those casino property always seemed like a good investment for a Black entrepreneur, maybe climate change makes it not so much any more, I don't know, but entertainment is an area in which Black people know something about, in fact I think our performing and visual arts should or could be the foundation of any Black economic development. Economic development that don't directly translate into prosperous communities that were once impoverished , would be no different from what we have now - a form of trickle down economics that never reach the people most in need of uplifting. We should be engaging in a low cost form of Black gentrification. marketing our artist and entertainers right in the communities in which they live. We should draw people from around the world into our communities to partake of our culture. Why can't African-Americans have a form of a tourist industry? We like to brag about how the world loves our culture and copies us, if this is true they will come into our communities to consume it, and their consumer dollars could benefit already existing businesses in our communities. Wealth is relative, and to have relative wealth, we must acquire, as much of other people's money as they get of ours. As it stands now, they consume our culture in their own venues outside of our communities. Our culture is our most plentiful and marketable economic producing resource, that is available to broad spectrum of our people. If we can't take advantage of and manage this gold mine, what can we capitalize on? Our venues don't have to be plush - just clean, comfortable and safe. Of course we would have to end the violence in many of our communities for this to be successful. Black businesses don't do a good job of advertising and marketing. We need to put more focus on the fundamentals of business and stop with all the social media gossip that to many so-called economic development advocates engage in. It doesn't help the trust factor, that I believe is a major reason the call for the support of Black banks and businesses, has not been successful over a span of nearly half a century, if not more.
@@siriuslyspeaking9720 man you kind of jumped around there. As I was responding to what seemed as disrespect towards someone who has solidified his legacy, dare I say in stone. It's like questioning what Dr. J or MJ did for basketball. Again if you are not familiar with his accomplishments just say that. He literally got more black judges elected in several different states than anyone has since he got out of politics. He helped Atlanta become a mecca for black business, from when the Atlanta airport got built to many of the businesses in that airport that many don't even know are black owned. Comes from a family of successful black bus owners. It only failed after people thought it was better to be accepted by whites & able to use white buses as if white ice is cooler than Black ice. Which goes into your point about him highlighting failed business due to "blacks" being apprehensive about supporting their own businesses because the desire to want to frequent their white counterparts. Allot of the other stuff you mentioned I agree with, I just felt complelled to correct you on your critique of claud Anderson. Do your research on his business acumen & what he's actually achieved & accomplished notoriety for from whites & blacks for what he's done for blacks in this country
@@davidelrockafella2870 I've seen Anderson speak of his position in the government, and a little of his businesses. My criticisms were more of the numerous people who advocate for him. The way they present it just sounds too much like a snake oil salesman. Economics really is not that complicated. Can you deny that Black businesses break one of the fundamental rules of business - advertising marketing? Those who advocate for him, seem to be marketing his books more so than economic development itself, and again they do a better job of marketing his books than economic development, IMO. In all that he has done, and it is a lot - the crucial question becomes - why has it not made a difference in the lives of those at the very bottom? Atlanta has the same poverty rate as most other cities, large numbers of us live in. Does capitalism dictate that whatever we do, in terms of economic, there will always be a significant number of people with no so-called wealth at all? Has the majority of Black people simply concluded that they can do fine without a committed economic relationship with other Black people? This nearly half century old campaign to support Black financial institutions saw the majority of them go out of business, if I'm not mistaken. At some point we have to take a different approach, if we still think group economics is a possibility. What has been consciously absent from the discussion of Black economics and politics is the third component crucial to social groups - culture. Politics and economics have failed us because we approach our societal woes backwards. Politics and economics grow out of culture. I believe our culture is flawed, and thus our politics and economics.
Poverty demands crime.
Nick Cannon take notes, this is how you answer controversial questions concerning the so-called Jewish community.. never cry or beg or take back your statements, be a man like ice cube.. he's very smart and calculated with his words ,you can tell he thinks before he talks..

I love and respect Icecube Dearly. I have always had mad respect for this gentleman. I will admit that I do not know @icecube personal but I do respect him and his craft. My man Cube you spoke from the heart and I feel your point and passion. If change is to ever take place . We all must care for ourselves first before expecting outsiders and others to care about you! Now if response to the Law and Police . I do feel that changes and training is important. Because the people need the Police and the Police need tbe people. We must try to find balance so that we can move forward. It not often that you would hear publicly from Icecube. On this issue I am glad that Cube spoke out!😇✌🏿❤👊🏿💯
Dr. Claude Anderson!! He needs to be involved with it PERIOD. He literally has invaluable inside knowledge necessary to pull off any real change and/or chance of us as a people gaining any real leverage in this country we built!!
Wow did Char just try to put the blame of lack of respect for cops on NWA??
Exactly. Why t f CTG think NWA made the song in the first place
I said it once and I'll say it again if ctg wasn't brown you'd see the s###t on his nose

Cunning, sneaky, shady, disingenuous, mischievous, joke it sounded like to me. Straight from the mind of someone seeking to deflect and redirect from the main issue and control the narrative.
Cube needs to link up with Dr. Claude Anderson

Who’s here after hearing that cube is scheduled for a meeting with Joe Biden about contract with black america ?
The interview with "Ice Cube" is what I would call the "GRITS" real food for the soul! Thank you!
I like that Cube is creating an inclusive contract that can be amended by the people to better our community. Cube talking about twisting the arm back a little bit, and that can work.
The television show “Lincoln Heights” is an example of a police officer living in the community that he polices.
Turn off the TV
That was a great show!

I totally agree those communities support each other and cube made a great point those communities are financially stable and they do try to tear our progress down. Cube is on point💯💯
It is several topics in America that needs some attention to bring about a positive change.
Why don't they go after the cops pension when the do wrong

Well you have to not have a mob mentality and let the facts come out which usually takes some time but the way people are today, they don't wait for facts and want someone to pay for something that might have been justified. On top of that when something is ruled justified, don't cry that the outcome that was given wasn't the outcome you wanted. Instead of teaching cops about Civil Rights history, how about we teach people how to actually be Civil?
that's one option
but in the contract it has a statute for an insurance fund that cops pay into - it takes care of the trials, and settlements that are currently laid through our tax dollars
I think there's some law that makes it so pensions can't be touched - but I agree the monies should come from the cops and not the ppl
to kinda offset that, the cops (and firefighters, and soldiers and first responders, etc.) who are doing a good job, and not bringing these lawsuits, should be allowed to pay less taxes - those jobs are hard af, but they're essential to have a fully functioning society - especially, if they're done right with integrity
ending Qualified Immunity - and having the bad apples cost these depts money over and over means they'll have to start weeding them out - leaving the right ones in the right positions
the overhaul encompasses A LOT - and a LOT of it starts with 💰 🤑
Reparations from the entertainment industry is an excellent idea !!!What Ice cube said was clearly poetic Justice. I don't understand how anyone can down like this🤔🤔
The dislikes are KKK trolls and trump ops
Jonesy It’s not just trump supporters. Its also left wing people and other so call people of color that’s not a fan of black Americans to receive anything that’s strictly for us.

Fluck Vlad! He's canceled
If we want to make our community better, why is it that none of these people live in the black community, everybody wants to get out!! All we do is make excuses, we have more wealth now than the black community had before 1970 but not enough investment back to the neighborhood.
Because it's dangerous!!! Everyone always says move back..then calls you stupid if you get killed/robbed. That is not related to not giving back or supporting black communities. Doing well in a poor community is dangerous.. period. White, black, brown...whatever.

Every Sunday a lot of black folks go to church. Instead of Sunday school teach black history, financial literacy, business and economic development, provide professional mentoring.
Yes!!!!!!
That can be done on Wednesdays or come together on a day through a consensus. We must address our own issues on all levels.
This is why they make schools, church is for God
Ice Cube speaks truth for his people not backstepping on nothing
Finally, someone I wanna hear from. ✊🏿☝🏿
God is good black man you are a true warrior to our community I love you brother Ice Cube man you are a knowledgeable black man the love show people and I am so proud of you God bless you brother keep up people thinking about the future and knowing what's going on peace and blessings to you brother Ice Cube much love
This was very needed im happy to be here to see it unfold 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Ice cube starting to look like his character on lottery ticket lol was just streaming I am the west album on Spotify dope music 🎶
He is getting older not younger btw 🙄
If he shaved that beard he would look a little younger.

“A lot of sabotage with our progress” thank you Cube! People acting like Black Americans have never attempted to build our community. Even when we do we are still fighting outside forces to keep it.
Once the document is finalized Cube has to get signatures that proves that the people are behind this. Not just give it to political leaders. Once you have the signatures it has to be taken seriously. Then we should hold our vote until it is adopted.
Exactly
That part! Excellent idea brethren
I was wondering where do we get information on the document it hadn’t been finalized right?
@@kayskornerbeauty great question I was wondering the same thing too
Kay Leequese yeah I think it is still a work in progress. Cube needs to make it digital so that and send to emails so that we get the signatures digitally. And keep it on the hush until finalized.
I got hype when he said "Yay yay" lol.
The value of educating our OWN children is awesome. My goddaughters went to an Afrocentric elementary school & it was excellent. The atmosphere was unapologetically Black. Some of the students were second generation and had the same teachers their parents had. I want all our babies to experience that.

DJ Envy talking about us holding ourselves up. Dude that's the point of the contact. Cube set it straight. We've seen individual success. As a whole community, though, we've been sabotaged.
Individual success is being entrepreneurial right ? That’s what they been teaching maybe it really doesn’t benefit the community!
He's probably cop and all about money
This is the best way to handle everything they talked about. Ice Cube is a great person to represent this contract. God bless him through this work and the communities he touches with this.
