The black cell, I call it, is a prison cell that we create in our communities, tell us, don't cry, don't be emotional, don't be vulnerable vulnerable don't think outside of the box you can't do

this if you black you can't do that if you black if you do that you're like do you think that

programmed you to how old was you when when you was able to break out of that box yeah how old was

you uh 56 you think that program you locked in three days ago you was no but I'm saying what I'm saying

what I'm saying is from from growing up to reaching that point where you could break out of that cell, that took decades. Yeah. So you think that was the conditioning of our environments? Yeah. And I'm only half joking when I say three days ago. It's like that's the work of, so all programming is a prison cell. Right. So, you know, you grow up and you're told you have to be a certain way. And it, you know, it's not just our community. I have a community. You grow up in Italian community. Yeah, you got to be a certain way. You have to be a certain way. You grow up in a Japanese community.

You got to be a certain way.

So everybody, and it's done out of love most of the time.

Your people want you to succeed.

Yeah.

Right?

They want you to not suffer what they had to suffer.

So they put the parameters in that you have to behave a certain way.

And it's usually for survival, right?

You know, it's like, you know, there are some people that have malicious, intense when

we're young.

But for the most part, you know know we get smacked in our face

for our benefit our parents want us to not do the stuff that's going to get us jammed up in

in the world right so you have that part of it the the real prison cell is after those people are gone, you do it to yourself.

Okay.

So that's the real prison cell is whoever did it when you was seven could be dead and gone.

And now you do it to yourself and then you do it to your kids.

Right?
