Speaker 2

Okay, I got your number from Benjamin Crump.

Speaker 2

He gave me your number.

Speaker 2

And OBB is our black businesses.

Speaker 2

I've met you before.

Speaker 2

Didn't you work at Lee Merritt's office for a while?

Civil rights attorney.

Speaker 1

Yeah, we worked together for a second, yeah.

Speaker 2

Okay.

Speaker 2

I was actually working at Lee's place.

Speaker 2

I think you had just gotten there when I was leaving.

Speaker 2

But I wanted to give you a call because here at OBB, we got a bit of a problem now.

Speaker 2

We were about to get an award from the Dallas Morning News.

Speaker 2

We was about to get a well congratulations.

Speaker 1

That's awesome.

Speaker 2

Well, no, we didn't get it.

Speaker 2

So uh we was about to get a benchmark business award which which came with a two million dollar grant where we could help a whole lot of black businesses.

Speaker 2

Now the problem is we was denied that and they saying they denied us from some some stupid that you said on TV.

Speaker 2

So they saying that we got denied of a benchmark business award.

Speaker 2

They supposed to give us two million dollars.

Speaker 2

We're gonna help a lot of businesses with this.

Speaker 2

But some that you said on TV, and now they hesitate on giving black organizations any kind of fun.

Speaker 1

Well, it probably ain't nothing that I said.

Speaker 1

It's probably something that Trump didn't say it.

Speaker 1

It ain't got nothing to do with me.

Speaker 2

At the end of the day, we need you not to say nothing for the next four years.

Speaker 1

Cause this gets created a big problem.

Speaker 2

Yeah.

Speaker 1

I don't even know.

Okay.

Speaker 1

I'm gonna have to direct you to my staff.

Speaker 1

I only continue this conversation because you said that you knew Benjamin Crump and Crump is like a big brother of mine.

Speaker 1

So if he gave you my number, he does not do that lightly.

Speaker 1

So I'm not really sure what's going on.

Speaker 2

He is a he is a friend of mine as well.

Speaker 2

But I

Speaker 2

the problem is that the the sh that you saying is the problem that I got.

Speaker 2

And that's uh I'm trying to get you to be quiet before you some of these some of these Republicans is good white folks, you know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1

Oh, oh.

Speaker 1

Well name 'em for me.

Speaker 1

I don't have a but nevertheless, but but nevertheless, I I don't know how you got my number.

Speaker 1

And uh I'm gonna have to have a conversation with Ben because we have never had this type of situation.

Speaker 1

And I am sorry that you felt like I had something to do with you losing your award.

Speaker 1

Listen, I want all my black businesses to survive and thrive.

Speaker 1

And so if there's anything that we can do, so what are you doing?

Speaker 1

What are you doing, Jack?

Speaker 2

What are you doing for black business?

Speaker 2

What are you doing?

Speaker 1

I I am listening I do a ton.

Speaker 1

If you are familiar with um the leadership under Pete Boudej with the Department of Transportation, the things that we did was we tried to insulate black businesses from an incoming an incoming crazy regime like the one that we've had to make sure that they could still get those contracts to be able to go out and work on these big infrastructure projects and things like that.

Speaker 1

And I honestly have a great relationship with the black businesses in my community.

Speaker 1

I'm surprised that I've never met you.

Speaker 1

I work with the black chamber of business and we always do events together.

Speaker 1

And I would love to bring you and your organization into the fold, but this I I gotta go.

Speaker 1

But I you can call my office and my staff can help you.

Speaker 2

So you got now you ain't got time for black people.

Speaker 2

You ain't got time to talk to me.

Speaker 2

No, I'm not gonna be able to do that.

Speaker 2

Now you got to go.

Speaker 2

You got to run.

Speaker 1

I always have time.

Speaker 1

But but this is getting a little bit more hostile than I typically like to deal with, 'cause if you've seen me, I know how to pop off and I don't wanna pop off because I understand your frustration.

Speaker 1

You're talking about le losing two million dollars.

Speaker 1

So I get it.

Speaker 1

But I would rather be productive and figure out how we can get that money back for you.

Speaker 1

I know people at Dallas Morning News, and so hopefully um I can assist you with that, but I can assure you that that money doesn't have anything to do with me and anything that I've said.

Speaker 2

They say this is behind some they saying this is behind some shit.

Speaker 2

You definitely said you said some on TV and this is the reason why This is the reason why they're holding back on giving us the grant for my for my organization.

Oh okay.

Speaker 2

And I'm sure this probably started when you got on there with that white lady with that that uh uh bleach blonde bad built beach body.

Speaker 2

When you did that, that's probably what created the problem on now.

Speaker 1

I I I don't think so.

Speaker 1

Um, you know, honestly, that was a white woman at work that disrespected me, and I got nothing but love when I called Marshall Take Grant a bleach blind, bad built bush body.

Speaker 1

So if it offended you, I I don't know if you blonde or bleach or or bad built.

Speaker 1

I I don't know.

Speaker 1

But I I will say that a lot of people were happy that I stood up to a bully in the same way you and your organization are being bullied out of y'all's money.

Speaker 1

I am going to absolutely make sure that I fight those bullies back on your behalf.

Speaker 1

So you should just take from that moment and recognize that I cannot be pushed around by anybody.

Speaker 2

You you you messed up all our money, and then you try now, you're trying to figure out why I'm upset about it.

Speaker 2

Yeah, I'm upset about it.

Speaker 2

I'm trying to get you to understand.

Speaker 2

But really, uh honestly, for the next four years, we need you to sit down and be quiet.

Speaker 1

That's what we really need you to do.

Speaker 1

Sir, sir.

Speaker 1

Like, I I mean, I don't want to fight.

Speaker 1

It sounds like you want to fight, but listen, as a public servant, I am really trying to serve the people.

Speaker 1

So just tell me how it is that I can help you instead of fighting with me.

Speaker 1

What we need to do is focus on how we're gonna get you your money.

Speaker 1

And I am committed to that.

Speaker 2
