You gotta u turn ing the You gotta turn to turn them out. Turn't got to turn them out. Then turn the water the water. Come come on your faddy. Uh huh I shore will good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, Come on dig me now. One and only Steve Harvey got a radio show man, o man o man? How many times I got to say that before I get tired of it. I think it's gonna be a minute, folks. I gotta be real with you, because, boy, that Steve Harvey got a radio show man. Clear indication of how God can do some unexpected, wonderful things for you, how he leads your life in directions that you never ever saw coming. You know, I was talking with somebody the other day and they were talking about how man, they were young and they were doing things and they never knew that the things that they were doing as a youngster would come and helped form who they were today as an adult. This guy's fifty years old, and you know the same thing. You If you look back on your life and all of the things that you've done, it helps shape you into who you are now. This is provided now that you take the positive approach. Now when I say look back at your life and see what you've done, that doesn't mean dwell on the misfortunate moments, because the misfortunate moments were necessary. I know it. It's hard to see that when it's happening to you, But the unfortunate moments are necessary. You know, what really makes you appreciate summer vacation is winter work. What really makes you appreciate a walk on the beach, it's when it's cold, it is raining outside. What really makes you appreciate when you're up, it's because you've been down. See if you are up all the time. Just the nature of us as human beings, we would lose our appreciation for because it becomes case Sarah, whatever it is, well, it is, what it is is? What what what you take it for? Granted, it becomes expected. But what happens in life, say, is it has so many twisting turns, and then you learn how to deal with those twisting turns, which makes you now a more experienced person. And then when the sunny days come, man, you go wild. It's really nice outside. You really want to appreciate how warm weather. Just stay in a bunch of cold weather all the time. I'm you know what I'm saying. I'm just this is really really simple and now analogies, but it helps you along the way. Now here's what I came to say today to everybody out there. And this has helped me in my life. I can't tell you what it's done for me, But a lot of people are struggling with moving forward with their future, their future plans, their future goals, their future aspirations, their future hopes, their future dreams, just simply your future wants. A lot of people trying to have a hard time mapping out their future. Even what I'm gonna do, what I'm gonna be, what I'm gonna make ham or go about it? What do I do next? I want to share something with you that I had to come to terms with the quickest way to lose focus on your future is to keep focusing on your past. You know, It's like I said at the beginning. You know when I say it's wonderful to look at your life and review it, because if you look at it, it'll tell you it really helps shape inform you today as the person you are now. If you look at it in a positive sense. But if you dwell in harp on the negative that's happened to you, then that keeps you from seeing the good in the incident, every bad thing has happened to you, that was a silver lining behind it. I know people who were on drugs who finally, man just got sent to prison for stealing because of a habit. I know cat that's sold dope. Well, he went to prison. He told me one time. He said, Steve, it's man, this is the best thing ever happened to me to save my life. Now, most people would think, how in the world is going to prison helpful for you? The brother said, it saved my life. First of all, it got me clean. He said, I've been cleaned for five years from sitting in him. That's for starters. I'm cleaned. I ain't still in no more. I ain't putting myself in jeopard and I ain't jeopardizing nobody else. He said, now, man, I don't went to college. I didn't got a college degree while I met him. Then he was released from prison, and the brother's life was completely turned around. He married, he got a family, he got a great job. He'd go to work every day. He's a productive citizen. I mean. So he looks back on his incarceration, even his drug abuse, and it taught him how to appreciate the things in life that he had taken for it and was missing because he said, man, my life was just in a blur. I didn't even know what was going on. He said, Now I appreciate every day I wake up. That's what I mean. Even in your missteps in life, there is a purpose for the missteps. Every time you fail, there was a reason for the failure. See what I had to do was I had to learn that all of my failures taught me how to get back up. So I became a very strong and tough person in getting back up. And then I was down and out so long that it taught me how to really appreciate the up. And so I've taken all of that and used it those experiences that happened to me, and I became a more experienced person. So next time when people talk about me who don't know me, it don't shake me because everybody's not gonna like you. Man, you might as well gonna get on this train right now. And so what I'm saying to you out there is the quickest way to lose focus on your future is to keep focusing on your path. Let it go. Yeah yeah, yeah, he left. But like I told us lady on my TV show the other day, sometimes the breakup is the blessing. I know it's hard to break up because now you're loaning you by yourself. But man, but when you're in misery, when you was in that, weren't you in complete misery in that? Now you kept asking God to fix it. But it takes two people to fix a relationship. It don't just take one. It takes two to make a thing go right. It takes two to make it out of sight. You really do have to have two people wanting a relationship to work. It can't just be one person want a relationship, so you can pray about the relationship all you want. If the other person don't want you no more and ain't gonna act right, you can't make him do that, or you can't make her do that. But you steady asking God for a new relationship. But you are yet to be grateful that you are in a position to have a relationship, and you keep harping on the pass. You don't think he hear that. I'm just a dude with a show, and I hear it all the time. Let it go, go forward. It's over. You made it, He bought you through it. You survived it. Why are you dwelling on it and making it the cross around your neck when clearly He had removed it for you. Now, all you got to do is come on. So if you're sitting behind them walls, brothers and sisters, I'm talking directly to you sometimes. Man, you just got to get it right. All this repeat offender business, that's for? Who is that for? How ignorant can you be to keep giving your life back to the penal system? Be free, man, walk the streets, do the right thing. Ask God to help connect you. He could do anything. You think he can't give you a job? Are you serious? Man, put some faith on it. Let's move forward, y'all. Let it go. Let's move Ladies and gentlemen, man have your attention, please, this is the Steve Harvey Morning Showing for us you're listening to is none other thing. Tight.

No, I don't, Steve, if you're talking about me when I very loyal, I don't recall that you didn't really Rudy Giuliana. All right, come on, Steve, time to get to those headlines, please, ladies and gentlemen. Miss Anne Shrimp, thank you very much, and good morning everybody hears the news. A federal judge has ordered that former White House counsel Domigan must comply with a congressional subpoena to testify before the House impeachment investigators. So the Decision and Effects says that the President Trump cannot block witnesses who have been subpoenaed by congressional investigators from testifying. That's a real setback for the Trump White House, since its lawyers have used the same argument of presidential privilege to keep several high profile witnesses from cooperating with impeachment investigators. Nevertheless, Trump's counsel is expected to appeal. Also, the House Intelligence Committee, by the way, is expected to release a report on the impeachment investigation after Thanksgiving. That's what they're saying. Committee chairman Adam Shipp says his panel is summarizing all the evidence accumulated so far looking into where the President Trump leveraged military aid to get the president of Ukraine to investigate his potential reelection rival, Joe Biden. However, Shift doesn't rule out future hearings or depositions. He says that legislators he feels have enough to make a decision a lot of evidence. The Secretary of Defense is defending his and the President's actions in the case of Navy seal Edward Gallagher, who was accused of war crimes interact. The Secretary of the Navy was ordered to allow Petty Chief Officer Gallagher to retain his potential retirement status as a seal a Navy seal, despite his conviction for posing for pictures with the dead body of the teenaged Isis prisoner. He was acquitted of stabbing to death. Navy Secretary Richard Spencer, however, still sought to punish Gallagher in some way over his behavior. So Defense Secretary Mark Esper says he was told by the President to step in and fire the Secretary of the Navy, and he did. I'm the Secretary of Defense, I'm responsible department. My view is we will follow our processes, and that is what we agreed to as leadership, to follow the processes. That is a position to the White House. The President is the commander in chief. He has every right and authority in privilege to do what he wants to do, and that's what happened. There was supposed to be a review by the way or Viewboard of Navy Seals next week to determine whether Eddie Gallagher met the standards of seal behavior but now that's like a departmental trial with the police. But now that will not happen. Voting rights advocates are pretty wary over the State of George's decision to purge more than three hundred thousand names off that state's voter rolls in advance of next year's presidential election. Advocates are worried that the plan purging may purposefully target and intimidate minardies and young people. These three hundred thousand amounts to roughly four percent of the George's registered voters, and officials say those identify for removal will receive letters at their last known addresses, and they must respond using one of several forms of communications in order for them to remain on the bout. So if you get a letter or something like that, please answer it. The legendary American jewelry company Tiffany and Company is about to be sold to a Parisian company LVMH LVMH like Rihanna's fenty Bulgari. So for all that good stuff.

We'll tell you about it. We'll tell you yep. One of his girls is speaking out, one of his exes is speaking out, as should say, coming up at thirty four minutes after the hour since you mentioned that, Steve, we do have an R. Kelly story, um, and we'll tell you about it right after this. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, So this is some trending news that's going around, Steve. One of our Kelly's alleged sex slaves his living girlfriends. Her name is Jocelyn Savage. Well, she's been silent for quite some time, never speaking, you know, a harsh word against our Kelly always appearing, you know, somewhere in the scene when he's around, like for instance, when he was doing the Gail King interview. Well, now she's breaking her silence on the nature of her relationship with R Kelly, who courses in jail. Yeah, it seems she's turning on him too. Yeah. Jocelyn Savage, who her family believes has been under R Kelly's control for about four years now, posted on Instagram over the weekend. I believe it was Saturday that she met R Kelly at a concert when she was nineteen. She went on to say that it was a fun experience that left her with mixed emotions. Jocelyn also reportedly added that R Kelly promised her a music career, allegedly saying he'd make her the next Aliah. Jocelyn then goes on to say that she dropped out of college and moved in with him, but says things turned ugly fairly quickly, as she claims he became incredibly controlling, she wrote, giving me commands and making sure I call him by certain names like master or Daddy. Jocelyn also claims that R Kelly threatened to torpedo her career if she ever left him or tried talking to her parents in private. Our Kelly, we all know it's currently incarcerated and facing several sex abuse charges from different states. Are Kelly's lawyer, Steve Greenberg said it's unfortunate that Jocelyn chose to exploit her loving relationship with our Kelly to make money. Wait, let me, I'm gonna read that again, because I think I said loving relationship? Did I say loving relationship? Our Kelly's lawyer, Steve Greenberg said it's unfortunate that Jocelyn Savage I chose to exploit her loving relationship with our Kelly to make money. There's that word again, loving, master and daddy. I just believe she's at a point now where she can finally tell the truth and talk. That's just what I believe. Yeah, because I think he doesn't have any control over her. He doesn't have control over her anymore. Yeah, Yeah, don't you know? People are all, well, you know, I can't see that. You know, I think a lot of people are mad at these women, because especially the adult women, you know, where you should have known better than all this here. But let's let's not overlook the part that angers most people, the part that people are really upset about is if the accusations are true about the underage girls, they are so easily influenced. You can use your age experience and gain to get them into a position. And then once you start the brainwashing process, you can control a person. For persons fearful in it, I'll do this, and I'll do that, you can start believing that you know. And so that's the part that I think the majority of people are upset with the young accusations of the young girls. And I keep saying accusations because I guess, But I mean, look, it's just too an. It's too many. It's it's too many. And the emo is always the same, the same, you know, they have come on man and everything. Like my mother used to always say, everybody ain't gonna tell the same lit. We're not talking about gossip now. We're talking about people coming out saying something that gossip is different. What's social media? Yeah, right there you go, thank you. Social media is different. You know, people get on the bandwagon, the trolls get to comment about stuff that ain't true. I ain't talking about that. When victims come out and say the exact same thing, the and have different circumstances, and they go the same way. You have to start listening to somebody. You can't write all of these girls off, right. Bet you calling somebody daddy, Donna? I bet you cool? Cool? Are Calley? Yeah? Oh it's some daddy is in there now? Oh yeah, you're calling from call me daddy when I did? All right, that's gonna be in prison for Oh my god, I can't believe. But he knew it in the Gail Keene interview. How about you fighting for my life? Oh yeah you did that? Yeah, yeah, y'all mess who my life? Man? He knew it. He knew it in Gil right, He just didn't he didn't know how true it was. Yeah, all right, we're gonna move on here. Um coming up next the nephew in the building with today's prank phone call. Right after this, you're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show.

We could be reading your letter live on the air, just like we're gonna read this one right here, right now. Buckle up and hold on tight. We got it for you. Here It is the Strawberry Letter. Thanks neph subject, will my man choose me for the holidays? Dear Stephen Shirley. I am a thirty year old, beautiful and successful woman, and I'm in love with a forty four year old, well educated hunk that swept me off my feet when I met him. He told me that he was seeing someone in a long distance relationship, but I still started dating this man despite the news. After six months of dating, I did some research and found out that he proposed to this woman and she has set a wedding date. I never confronted him about it, but it tore me apart emotionally. I figured if I started an argument about it, I would push him away and his fiance would win. So I have kept the news to myself. I'm trying my best to make him fall in love with me and leave her. I know the old saying if he cheats on her, he'll cheat on you, But I believe in love and I know we have something special. The loving is so good, and he takes me on some amazing trips all across the world. We are always together when he's not out of town visiting the other woman. I am overly jealous, so I just need to know how I can win him over before his fiance orders the wedding invitations. The holidays are coming up and I don't want to spend them without him, so time is of the essence. How do I tell this man that I am in love with him and will take any and every risk when it comes to getting him to myself, It's totally possible to be in love with two people at the same time, so he's probably struggling internally with who he should be with. Maybe if I tell his fiance about our relationship, she will just break up with him and go away. It may make him mad, but in the end he will still have me, and I know we can be happy together. I'm head over heels for this man, and I'm planning to invite him to Thanksgiving dinner so my family can meet him. How shall I handle How should I handle this love triangle? Do you hear yourself? Do you hear yourself? Because listen closely. This is this is the sound of desperation, all right, this is the sound of delusion in this letter. So I want you to hear yourself. You are so short changing yourself in this relationship. You are number two. That's it, that's all. You are the side piece, and you're okay with that. I think you're really okay with it because he told you his status. When you guys, you know first got together. He told you he was in a long distance relationship. You even researched it, you did your research and your words. You still dated him despite the news. You started dating him. And that's the problem. I mean, really, what is his incentive to leave his fiance and get with you? Number two? What is it He's getting everything from you without having to change a thing he's doing when when for him he's got the best of both worlds here. I mean, the question then becomes, when are you going to wake up and realize that if he was going to leave her for you, don't you think he would have waited to propose to her. I mean, you know, you did all the research. You know, maybe he would kind of see where the relationship would could go with you and him, or maybe that you would have won him over by now you think it's a competition between the fiance and you because you're you're willing to take any and every risk to get him. You know, I gotta tell you, please, don't bother inviting him to dinner because you know where he's gonna be. He's gonna be with his fiance and her family kicking it over there for Thanksgiving because they're planning a wedding. They're getting married. You are the side piece, all right, Steve, Well, I don't know what Shirley's done a really excellent job with this. All you can do is just get it worded in a different way. So here we go. Well, my man, choose me for the holidays. The answer to that question is noe. And the answer to that question no is simply because number twos don't get holidays. You don't get Christmas, don't get Thanksgiving, you don't get forth of July barbeques, those out of holidays. You don't get the old Valentine's date, you can't get them days right there. You don't get anniversaries. You don't get none of that, Coach, you will never had an anniversary. Number two don't get anniversary dates. Number ones get anniversary dates. And you don't even have to be married to your number one half an anniversity just the third year we've been knowing each other. You don't do that to number twos. You don't go we've been seeing each other for three years. Now, let's go out and celebrate. No, there's no celebration. You don't celebrate number twos. When I met him, he told me he was seeing someone in a long distance relationship. Then you know what you said right after that, But I still dated this man despite the news. Okay, so you stupid, all you just did what you wanted to do. You dated Demand anywhere. Demand told you I got somebody. It's a long relationship. I got somebody. You started dating Demand anyway. Then after some six months of dating, you did some research and found out that he proposed to this woman as she has set a waiting date. Okay, what's the surprise. I never confronted him about it, but it told me a party. Mostly. I figured if I started an argument about it, I pushed him away and this fiance will win. The fiance is already winning. She the fiance. Six months in, you found out they set a date for a when he asked her, she just put this date on Facebook. He asked the woman to marry him. Has he asked you? Has he mentioned marriage to you? He said nothing? By no, damn family with you, stupid. Let him make me sick and to tell the rest of him right after shut up? Coming you're listening, hey, Steve, come on, let's capt today's strawberry letters. Subject, Well, my man choose me? For the holidays. This woman to met, she thirty, She met just for the year old, well for the four year old, well educated hunks swept you off your feet when you met him, he told me he was seeing somebody. You still dated the man. Bam. Six months later you did some research, that's social media, found out that he proposed to this woman. She even said a wedding day. You ain't never said nothing to him about the man. You figure if you start the argument and push him away. Now you want to know in the letter where my man choose me for the holidays? I'm telling you know because number twos don't get holidays. Holidays a reserved for number ones. Uk' be number two and get a holiday. You get some fridays, get sandy here and now wait, what is that? What do they get? Steve? You can get some Fridays and occasional Saturday, but that's it. Usually it's the same day of the week that he then told his wife or number one that he does a certain thing on a certain night, and that turns that night into YO night. I play poker with the boys on Tuesday nights and I be home late, then that night is YO night. You don't get any night you want. Now here's a delusional part, like Shirley say, I'm trying my best to make him fall in love with me and leave her. What Let me ask something, how do you do that? How as the number two do you make the man fall in love with you and leave the number one? I know the old thing. If he cheats on her head, cheat on you, that ain't got nothing to do with this. No, he's cheating on her with you. You the you tell my head, cheat on you? No, you to you? But I believe in love. Stop it. You just say you believe in love. He's marrying a woman, and I know we have something special. You all this is in your mind? You have nothing special. Your number two two's ain't special? Ain't you? A? And all is here? They ain't no two A two plus. This ain't a seat an economy that's ain't in economy super with extra leg room. You're still in the back Economy plus. You're still in the back. But this room is still good. But you in the back door. He's got the first class seat and you can't come up here with the Economy plus ticket. I can sit on the exit row and get you a little bit of Astra if that's what you want. But look at that as a lot of people on the exit row. The loving is so good, and he takes me on amazing trips all across the world. You'dn't been to the bug who ain't been there. She's making it down bigger than it is yours across the world? Stop San Diego. Ain't all across the world. Then here's another line. We are always together when he's not out of town. Hello, do you understand this? You're always together when he's not out of town. You just said he take you all around the world. Girl, when you're out of town, he would hull you ain't been nowhere, fly to Atlanta and across the world when he's not out of town visiting the other woman. I'm overly jealous, So I just need to know how can I wear him over before his fiance orders to wear an invitation? Way too late for that. They the sect the date they wanted, putting money down on places she brent dress shopping. Damn these invitations. The holidays are coming up and I don't want to spend them without him. You are this is your first holiday, it's only been six months. You've never been to the holidays before. You're spending those holidays alone. You're number two. It's only been six months. Hell, it's November, so you met him prior to the summer. You're not. They don't get holidays, Sweetie. I'm sorry, and I don't want to spend them without him. So time is of the essence, girl, Thanksgiving, Dawn Giving, after tomorrow. Yeah, but if he said nothing to you about Thanksgiving, Yeah, because he ain't gonna be Hell, he got he gotta go out of town. He gonna tell his fiance I ain't coming to wonder what is your fin to do? Then? How do I tell this man that I'm in love with him and will take every risk he can to getting him to myself? You've already taken the risk. The man told you was in a relationship, and you dated him in away. You took the risk. You've taken all the risks. Now, then you go right here. It's possible to be in love with two people at the same time. So I know he's probably struggling internally with who he should be with, little girl. The struggle isn't with who she should be with. The struggle is how to tell you he's with her and Finn to getting married. Remember that he has not told you this for a reason, because the only struggle is when and how to tell you this is over. Because I'm Finn to move this woman in my house. That's the struggle to struggle. Ain't with your little system. You pack your bags up, He ain't coming over for Thankgiving, And do not call that woman because you could get shot. All right, those are my closing remarks today, y'all have a great weekend. All right. You can post your comments on today's Struwberry Letter as Steve Harvey FM on Instagram and book and please don't forget to check out the Strawberry Letter podcast on demand now coming up at forty six after the hour. I think Steve had more to add to this Strawberry Letter, write Steve, We're gonna do a little bit more. Let's let this you're listening to, all right, Steve, you said you had some more to add to the Strawberry Letter subject why my will my man choose me for the holidays? For those of you that don't know, this girl is thirty years old dating this forty four year old man. She swept off his feet day he told her on day one, he's in seeing someone in a long distant relationship. But you dated this man anyway despite the news six months of dating. Did some research found out the woman has setting wedding date with He proposed to this woman. Now, this girl who wrote the letter hasn't said anything to him about it, but she's torn up. She's scared to start our argument because it to push him away and his fiance will win. So she's kept the news to the saying to kept it all to himself. He's trying to figure out the best way to make this man fall in love with her and leave her. I know the old saying. If he cheats on her, here cheat on you. But I believe in love. Now that she's talking about the man take on some amazing trips all across the world. The girl had been in San Diego, and now she been all around the world. San Diego, it's just close to Mexico. You did you saw the sign, see, but you didn't actually go to Tiawan And he don't want to go there, No damn way, because it's crazy. Now anyway, how do I wear him over before the fiance orders to wed an invitation? Holidays is coming up I don't want to spend him with him, so times of the elsenes. How do I tell this man I'm in love with him and would take every risk into getting him to myself totally possible. Well, now he's probably struggling with who he should be with. Then here was the line the girl said, maybe if I tell his fiance about our relationship, she would just break up with him and go away. It may make him mad, but in the end he would still have me, and I know we can be happy together. Pump your brakes, little girl. You've obviously never gone to a woman to tell her that you are the other woman. They do get mad, and it dud messed the dude up with his girl for a while, but they usually recover. Now he is going to hate you for the rest of your life and you will have no relationship with him, none whatsoever. And it is due. So long as you know that, good luck. I'm planning on inviting him to Thanksgiving. Don't do that, that man. Don't do that. When I damn turkey over there by yourself, they're gonna have a place sitting with somebody ass ain't gonna be there.

Just stuck my head in check on, y'all. I'm gonna come back and get a plate and don't ever come back or go over there at halftime. Halftime you're making a liquor stoe run that deep in the hood. Craigs is open selling, all right, and then Tommy had some tips as well. What do you have Tommy? This is for women. If you catch your man cheating, don't leave him, keep back, show him you support what he does. You see what I'm saying, Show him you support what he does. That's that's new. I hate that.

All right, coming up our last break of the day, and of course, of course it's the last break of the day. You're always surprised me with that, but I love it, right, And some closing remarks from the one and only Steve Harvey right after this. You're listening to show all right, here we are, guys, last break of the day on this Tuesday. Steve, you have some closing remarks for us. I know you do. I was talking about the goodness of God and all the opportunities that he'll create for you if you just walk up the hallway. Don't get frustrated when doors close in your life. Just walk up the hallway. And I was mentioning that I thought that Muslims always they make going to the Holy the pilgrimage to the Great mecca one of their life's ambitions, and they all try to go. I've seen a Netflix special own. It's really really amazing, man, very very respectful. Religion is not what people think it is. Islam is about love and peace, it really is. It's not the propaganda. Islam is not isis. That's not what that is. That's some people who have taken it and been it the other way, just like there's some forms of Christianity that really ain't Christian at all. And so in my travels and coming to Africa and the reason I'm saying to African Americans who are listening to my voice, it's an expensive flight. I got it. I know it is. It costs more than going to Atlanta or something like that. But let me tell you something, it is so worth it for your soul. You will be forever changed if you go to Africa. It has been the most eye opening experience I've ever had. Other than allowing God to come into my life and be a major interest part of it, going to Africa has been the most significant thing I've ever done in all of my years. Let me say something to African Americans. You know what makes this play so special? It's when you get off the plane. There's an adjustment you have to make. It's adjustment you have to make because people who look like you are everywhere. And after you make the adjustment of wow, these people are everywhere. I'm talking about everywhere you go, every restaurant, every hotel, at the airport, positions of power, the supervisors, the people who run the hotels that they're not the maids, they're the managers, are general of every hotel, everywhere you go, every restaurant, they own things. And for the first time in my life, I walk around and I cannot tell you what it feels like. For the first time in my life, I've discovered what it feels like to be the majority and not the minority. The feeling of being the majority has encompassed me for the past few weeks, and it is an incredible feeling because in America, and God knows, I love America. Man, My opportunities have been there, my family's there, my grandkids are there, my friends are there, my homes are there. I love it. But man, let me tell you something. It is a different feeling you have when you come to a place and you are suddenly not the minority. To be able to walk around for the first time in your life for an extended period of time and not be the minority. It's hard to explain how it feels, but it's such a feeling. Man. It's such a feeling that when you walk in a place that they don't stare at you because you're the only one in there. And every African American knows what I'm talking about. And this is not a knock on anybody else. I'm just talking to mine right now. I'm just talking to the people who can relate to exactly what I'm talking about, because I have friends in all racist walks of life, so this is not about that, but this is just directed to people who are just like me. It is an amazing thing to feel what it feels like to be a majority, not in your neighborhood, but everywhere you go on the streets, in the offices, in the restaurants, at the hospital, at the bus station, at the whole tell, in the neighborhood, at the store, at the gas station, you are the majority. It's an awesome feelings. It's like it's it's such a weight that comes off of you when you're here because you don't have to be a certain kind of way. And if you after an American and you hear me, you know what I'm talking about. If you're real or now now, if you're faking the game and you're trying to fit in to the point where you didn't gave up yourself for that, that's another thing. But I'm talking about those of us who have maintained who we are in spite of it all. And this is a very very positive closing remark, but I want you all to understand that when you come here and you feel what it feels like to be a majority, finally, it's gonna be eye popping, it's gonna be soul quenching, it's gonna be heart rendering. You are going to feel like you've never felt before. You should come to Africa to see what it feels like to be the majority. It's off the chain. I want this for everybody. Not only do I want you to come to see your motherland, I want you to come to see where we're from. This weekend in Ghana, I met the first king I've ever met. I met the king of the Ashantis, which is the biggest tribe in Africa. The majority of Africa is Ashanti. From what I understand, it's the largest. Let me tell you something, I met a king for the first time. I have an even richer understanding of who we really are. Every African American should find it and make it a mission to come to Africa. Those are my closing remarks. Wow, that's it. Y'all. Have a great weekend. Everybody good. I am talk goody. Love to hear from y'all. Y'all have a great weeknd.
