6:59

To 10 years from where I was

7:01

at a recent college grad to

7:04

being National Power to make

7:06

difference, where I wanted to let you know,

7:09

you

7:12

don't have wait for anyone. Because if

7:14

wasn't on the internet, you can say

7:17

something and build something and it

7:19

blow up and you have millions of users are

7:21

billions of and you don't have

7:23

to be

7:36

at the time. It

7:38

was me and my brother at Stanford

7:40

7:58

we all used to every single day. Changed

8:00

how we interact with. The world

8:02

8:05

me off the part that was annoyed

8:07

8:24

And what our guy that I mean, know my

8:26

reasoning, but like. What

8:28

they're reading that they would have for that? There's

8:31

a lot of bias in the reasoning, you know.

8:33

Your target customer is your ideal profile,

8:35

your ideal customer, I your ideal

13:10

you know why it's people already

13:12

We've got a difference is try to attack me of it's maybe

13:14

even easier for them.

13:17

I'm better than a lot of safety features now

13:19

and into the same debate team now

13:22

and there's back he bought their cap

13:24

cable, maybe there's back angel investors newer

13:26

and better themselves. Different

13:29

because we now power in from of these fantasies

Part of it because we've chosen to participate.

13:37

At be owner and.

13:39

So my financial planner, which

13:42

again?

13:43

We. Need an issue episode around that actually any

13:45

to have him on the show because of

13:47

these are spaces I feel buy folks we

13:49

look at and sometimes it's get. An ivory tower

13:51

like don't even know what to do with the financial planner

13:53

right and we think any. less

13:56

yes exactly and fell

13:58

and working with him and said that said Well. As who

14:00

connected as I'm, he's taught me, so

14:02

imagine one of the things he was telling me was, like, "Okay,

14:05

we need to invest in places that

14:07

need our voices even" If they don't think they

14:09

need our voices, and one of the examples was Microsoft

14:12

because he was like he and some other,

14:14

you know, folks that are wealthy.

14:17

They invested in Microsoft, Tests, Face

14:20

Recognition, Technology That. Police.

14:22

are using etc and he was like this

14:24

technology is very salty and

14:27

it has incredibly can

14:30

have incredibly adverse effects on our community and

14:32

it has as though and" He was like that

14:34

we were able to

14:37

basically it's think it's called like work are shares

14:39

are some like that and because,

14:41

there was enough of them

14:43

That were shareholders in Microsoft,

14:46

they were able to be able to push the conversation

14:48

around technology and saying,

14:50

like, "know this needs to be addressed and we have shares

14:53

and these shares needs to be the"

14:55

acknowledged as bad as the

14:57

way that this technology has dealt with, but those

14:59

are safe as I feel like we just.

15:02

Seem so nice and I've been

15:04

really working hard Morgan to try and,

15:06

and I feel gladly does, is to destroy, really

15:09

push the envelope of.

15:11

Where black folks are considering our spaces

15:13

to be because I see yeah check,

15:16

28:44

about the brooklyn the us government socratic There.

28:48

The Globe. Okay.

28:50

And federal provides really exciting, actually,

28:52

when you talked about how he's

28:54

black access and black people.

28:58

Real opportunity pressure, the black people,

29:00

is that when we start to build our

another debbouze young I'm just relieved.

29:29

Their own energy collection consolidation.

29:31

The hand it sold out immediately and

29:34

they have different levels of NFC that you can

29:36

buy the contract with the different profit, they

29:38

even have a lifetime access to control

our past. And. It had all

29:43

these things like you get credit for food and beverage, you

29:45

get to be on the on the stage for this, he gets

29:47

to do this that and. So

you could do it at the visual membership right like

29:54

so, how could it better than key or

29:57

your local? Y'm m c I could be an nfc

30:04

membership by owning an nfc the patches

30:06

the J paper, the image it's like what is the

30:08

30:12

I think that's the part that a lot of us have not known

30:14

about in sex, yeah?

30:16

That second part is the one that hasn't really

30:18

been illuminated I feel like I've just been

30:20

trying to understand why this image itself

30:22

is so impactful or

30:25

via yeah valuable and I'm like it's a

30:28

it's. smoking dog smoking don't know

30:30

enough about that will change over time

30:32

and time think like okay that's why

30:36

What you original company the,

30:38

but you don't really exist anymore of like who

30:40

uses motive felt no one.

30:43

Right, right, things will die like companies will die,

30:46

things will go away their. The fad

30:48

or we add and downs who would have thought the periscope

30:51

would have died or I would have died, you know, things go

30:53

on a down and left and right to.

30:56

Don't be attached to be. Companies

31:00

platform trained, robust platforms

31:02

and ladder it's the can censor the way of thinking

31:04

and he underlined lot

31:07

of our operating and.

31:09

Generally, that that's blockchain, which

31:11

is what enables us to do all of these things,

31:13

so um, yes, you

31:15

can go by a J pag and that'll get you access

31:17

system party in New York and percent, but

31:20

that community may die. In two years.

31:23

I. Did they say it is like, you know, if you buy

31:25

this, and as he don't think of it as like forever

31:28

thing, you gotta understand that buying it in a getting?

31:30

You access as you more so does

31:32

involve yourself in community that

31:34

operating and by nature by

31:36

you getting into that makes you are

31:39

trans, you are.

31:41

Rumbling for you're moving further along

31:44

like Yeah not station as if any amazed

31:46

and are getting actually avenue people share

31:48

information people get strep

31:50

people money people spend people

31:53

31:54

Their energies of you have one and have to admit to make

31:57

31:59

the second in A. The cocker worth money and

32:01

then and then and it keeps going

32:04

and so ah like ours are present

32:06

energy ticket for Africa.

32:08

Red pepper. the government's

33:04

like that

33:06

Right because I'm just like this is,

33:09

you do pay taxes on NFC is because their assets

33:11

that salad appreciate in value, but it is very.

33:14

Everyone playing catch up. The man.

33:18

I mean, even in the short conversation I'm beginning to understand

33:21

his way. The currently

33:23

and think that.

33:24

Is it fair to say was that is

33:26

that, as you were saying that you know things change so rapidly, like

33:28

right now, this is the way and f T's are being

33:30

the most effective in the way they're being utilized,

33:33

but we're going to see that shift as with

33:35

anything but as? The government becomes more aware

33:37

and try to well as way into.

33:39

The your weight, etcetera at my request

33:41

36:12

literally like.

36:13

Reading. Time on YouTube there so many incredible

36:15

YouTube channel ah, but there's a podcast

36:17

called Same Class as lot of

36:19

really great conversations that you could just possibly

36:22

with sensuously it. Is for the vocabulary

36:24

because it is vocabulary, I get it because

36:27

mean you're using words even like venture

36:29

was like amateur folks even know what that means

36:32

you. Know that Arlen Hamilton on the show,

36:34

Ah, and so our land, you know, definitely

36:36

says you guys have not listened to the side effects

36:38

as being a Ah, what

36:40

was that? Episode side effects of being on

36:42

dirt. Estimated.

36:44

I think it was your arm because would

36:46

Hamilton was there that she was like, you know,

36:49

folks did not believe in me, but doubt it together and

36:51

have. A multimillion dollar venture funds

36:53

and measure capitalism as people who make

36:56

money investing in other people's ideas yet

36:58

I've raised talk when it million dollars

37:00

in venture capital per day and.

37:02

It is not so. People get me out that

37:04

money back.

37:06

I'm gonna get it back and then said the not be the grazier

37:09

and. what do you do without money like when you say you're

37:11

gonna get it back and then some how does that actually

37:13

get applied Well, that would mean we

37:15

fell back of the shed or idea. Yeah,

37:18

yeah, and then they get their money back and

37:21

face the return, and so do I

37:24

do, you know, from and to my place,

37:26

and then all of a sudden we have Black Knight the.

37:30

All. Of a sudden we have the billionaires

37:33

that running around when,

37:35

you talked about earlier about how black that he has

37:38

multiple products he's is give us some insight

37:40

into just. The ways in which gravity has expanded

37:42

why you decided to go, into

37:44

these other. spaces yeah so

37:46

glad that he Her to required

37:49

are travelling on. Shadow an

37:51

hour.

37:52

We're own, of course I for track.

37:55

Which we created and house twenty one nine

37:57

be and from at twenty one and.

37:59

and we answer The A ad Network has

38:01

the largest black ad network. The

38:03

war. black publishers

38:05

which includes. Which means we run ad

38:08

sales like when you go on their website,

38:10

you see ads are cheater. Running a

38:12

technology and selling those advertisements

38:15

on behalf of back publishers like the Shade Room.

38:17

They're alert hobby. I

38:20

would have laughed at in

38:22

a variety of other black publishers, and the reason

38:24

we do that is because. We're stronger

38:26

together when we go into these big agencies

38:29

and we go to these big Grantham page, see

38:31

you can't overlook. You have

38:33

to pay to do the as but. it should

38:35

little of me and i only have a million you

38:37

know followers yeah they don't

38:39

happen You can make collective, we were

38:41

much stronger. And office

38:43

supply demand if you don't work with as you don't get any

38:46

of the idea because I'm on about over

38:48

here and we do it right or years and.

38:53

That is wondering why Blah, but he ain't that

38:55

the company has been able to be so powerful

38:57

that off with true to our branch

38:59

is because we've been able to control. And

39:02

influence the industry and edited been

39:04

at the whim of what be paid not getting an agency

39:06

companies wanted to do and not off of

39:08

I had to buy and build more

39:11

brand for just one because were multifaceted.

39:13

Community like the person who likes to travel to Arden

39:16

doesn't read. Seventy the person who goes

39:18

out for doesn't, reach i don't even

39:20

know what had on act as you know bucket right

39:23

to shutting our community Like I

39:25

retired and every day.

39:27

The time and I believe you to the

39:29

not yes, the we're not a monolith,

39:31

and we say that all the time and I feel like you know what

39:34

you're explaining in just the way

39:36

the you all have, as have acquired these different spaces,

39:39

is the uniqueness of your

39:41

brand's.

39:43

That with it passed a half the guess

39:45

that my happiness facts like my it.

39:48

That yes.

39:50

the customer base

39:51

"The way I me with my pony, a black like I've really

39:53

tried to just get better understanding

39:55

of our audience in that way and I think in the beginning was

39:58

like Officer and a comedy show", but added. Hey,

40:00

more about.

40:00

Community. And more about dislikes

40:03

with who's actually coming to this show on

40:05

what do they want him coming to this show

40:07

a really has shifted and then

40:10

we during the pandemic so? When

40:12

you would occupy the metaverse, we did version, I

40:14

mean, when you were talking about Afro.

40:16

Are they being mehta, yeah, we did like

40:18

a version of that was my friend, am black,

40:20

where you could go into like pre show

40:22

that had like vendors, as

40:26

you said?

40:27

Yeah we used often and but then

40:30

have him was doing too much says.

40:32

the and like three but It's

40:35

quota. Then

40:37

I mean, was I'll say this, had never considered

40:39

anything like that every like didn't even

40:41

know that was possible that people

40:44

could. Be.

40:46

In that space in multiple different ways,

40:48

I guess that's what mean like you could be looking at benders,

40:50

but you could also be like doing

40:52

one on one conversation that.

40:55

You could also be listening to the DJ and,

40:57

like, be in the room with the DJ, we had spinning and

40:59

was like.

41:01

The prayer felt. move

41:03

out like of them

41:05

Yeah, it's a damn that was the go,

41:07

you know enough with the goal, but I.

41:10

I'm. Curious if you know you're

41:12

not just a black person, take your about

41:15

one in taxes, and you

41:17

know what has that been it, we're that experience than for

41:19

you and I'm. Not assuming that has been struggle, but I'm

41:21

just curious in terms of like you're on

41:23

team that started with two brothers

41:25

and you if you have unique point. Of view,

41:27

that your brain so that conversations I would love to

41:29

hear just more about, like, what your

41:32

path and your space has been ends,

41:34

what you wanted to be.

41:36

Well you, know i think that

41:39

being that black woman in fact be fact black founder

41:41

raising Venture funding and

41:43

a majority white. Venture

41:45

funding world people who are investing in the companies.

41:49

Share you know it's not an easy

41:52

like I don't want to say

41:54

like like,. punched

41:57

in the face every day like superbly are

41:59

mostly yeah definitely

42:01

difficult and. i

42:03

think it's difficult for any woman in

42:06

black woman in power Internally

42:08

and externally within the own company he

42:10

others that returns are like you're disrespecting

42:12

me because I'm a while then you're just because of lack

42:14

well maybe if it were friends but if out of the

42:16

white man he would chew the like that same.

42:19

way that The fee then

42:21

investors when you're evaluating my company,

42:23

your after the hundred and one question, but I know

42:25

you didn't as Jimmy over here.

42:28

42:35

the don't get the benefit. Of the where,

42:37

42:39

you make the same time make the save face hurts

42:42

and they linger and that you don't like into

42:44

the. And about fact as fast

42:46

don't pay and what's considered

42:48

a mistake. has so much of

42:50

this is so willy nilly that i'm just like how even

42:53

considering things mistakes at san miscalculated

42:55

our cash flow and all that fat and our revenue

42:58

are like our biggest outlook smile

43:00

right with got lot of money coming in but

43:03

it's accounts receivable right so they

43:05

43:06

And we've got coming out and

43:29

the wind, but like for fine about the

43:31

white man I'd be going to be given to the benefit

43:33

of doubt was like, "Okay, cool, here's

43:35

43:38

black woman it's like, okay? We

43:40

43:45

the additional consequences for

44:24

and felt I spent a lot of my time trying to

44:26

build community for entrepreneurs. For

44:29

black women because we

44:31

just need to hang out with each other with each

44:33

58:51

the first steps, join the discord, follow

59:06

studying, you heard that are treated

59:09

59:11

right there is such importance. Guys

59:14

with has so many of us sites.

59:17

We. Didn't give yourself permission to, like, have

59:19

a discipline about learning something new, and

59:22

then we get side swiped, you know, we

59:24

get blindsided what I bought my house had a. Treat

59:26

it like was going back to school for a second,

59:28

headset says, "Line like, okay,

59:30

this is all new vocabulary I mean to read

59:32

up on some things you. Know that do a plan love.

59:35

You already have a whole life of experience

59:37

that you're standing on, so it's not like you're starting

59:39

from scratch, I think a lot of us.

59:42

Wow, it's are free, the like on man, this

59:44

is gonna be so much by it.

59:46

When our tickets or even when I started learning about

59:48

what was with about what's going on in Palestine,

59:50

you know there was. They

59:52

kind of fear had at first about and

59:54

the and that it wasn't so by outward.

59:57

quoted as well and people, but this year that like

59:59

was too.

1:00:00

For me to understand, not realizing

1:00:02

that like I have a.

1:00:04

Lifetime of knowledge and information

1:00:07

that I am standing on Kid Eg to

1:00:10

be able to take this information and by the end

1:00:12

of the day when you hear about your like, think that the photos

1:00:14

of colonialism Muslims was the exists. Though.

1:00:18

It's the same with tech, it's the same with

1:00:20

even like I'm learning about, so didn't know shit

1:00:23

about stocks and think mutual

1:00:25

funds etc, but when you

1:00:27

just apply yourself. For even a

1:00:29

short amount of time it just

1:00:31

gives you language that your oppressor

1:00:34

has been using from day one

1:00:36

and that is he so often.

1:00:38

I feel like the thing that keeps us out,

1:00:40

we literally are not even in a conversation because

1:00:42

we can't understand the conversation so

1:00:45
