the Construction. I am your host. Thank you so much for joining us

4
00:00:11.160 --> 00:00:26.719
today, Mom, Mother, my
dear Madre, whatever your name is,

5
00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:36.280
for her, it's her name.
Today we celebrate you, Mama. We

6
00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:45.079
celebrate and we salute mothers all over. We celebrate these wonderful, strong,

7
00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:58.399
incredible, powerful women who do so
much, who already already the backbone of

8
00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:06.760
our community, by society, and
of us. And today, on this

9
00:01:06.879 --> 00:01:17.359
day, we celebrate you, Mother, We celebrate you. Happy Mother's Day

10
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:26.120
to all of the wonderful mothers out
there. Now, I'm not trying to

11
00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:29.799
throw shade when i say this,
so I'm a prefacing by saying that.

12
00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:33.439
So I'm not trying to throw shade
when I say this. But what I'm

13
00:01:33.480 --> 00:01:38.319
saying, mother, I'm not singing
just for a woman who's given birth to

14
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:47.359
a child and then that's it.
Hasn't gone done anything beyond that. No,

15
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:55.599
Now I salute you from being a
birth mother, for all that you

16
00:01:56.040 --> 00:02:00.760
endure to bring a child into this
world. Now I salute you for that.

17
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:17.080
But I am talking about these women
who sacrifice everything to ensure that their

18
00:02:17.159 --> 00:02:24.520
children or child has all of their
basic needs and more, not just financially,

19
00:02:25.759 --> 00:02:39.400
but emotionally, intellectually, spiritually holy. These are the women who I

20
00:02:39.639 --> 00:02:46.240
stand tall, tintoes down, and
I salute today on this day, but

21
00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:50.800
not just this day, but I
salute you all every day. But since

22
00:02:50.879 --> 00:03:00.840
this is recognized as holiday for you, this day, we celebrate you because

23
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:10.599
you see, it starts with mama. What do you mean, Oh,

24
00:03:12.039 --> 00:03:23.599
it starts with mama. Tupacs said, it best we get our name from

25
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:27.479
my mama. We came from my
mama. We get our gain from my

26
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:44.199
woma. He said, it best
we come from you me being a father

27
00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:51.800
and a parent. And I'll I'm
I'll never min him. I can never

28
00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:59.439
minimize the fact or the the the
importance of a dad. And I'm gonna

29
00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:03.560
get into that next month when I
sued our brothers, my fellow fathers for

30
00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:06.879
Father's Day. Be on the lookout
for that episode, by the way,

31
00:04:08.039 --> 00:04:13.240
right here on currently under construction.
Nice plug segway into that. But seriously,

32
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:25.040
I'm not trying to minimize that.
But all of a child's first feelings,

33
00:04:26.040 --> 00:04:39.279
emotions, sensitory reactions to things and
everything come for Mamma. Now I

34
00:04:39.279 --> 00:04:42.480
felt about it, disagrees with that. You more than happy to come debate

35
00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:45.959
me about that at any given time. I mean, I'd be a woman.

36
00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:58.959
But I know that much we come
from you. You name us.

37
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:12.560
You carried us around for nine months
inside of you. Every bit of nourishment

38
00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:24.759
that you get, we got everything
you heard we did. Also, every

39
00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:28.879
bit of the first feelings of love
that we felt inside of you came from

40
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:45.120
you. And although you bringing us
in, are at the closest point of

41
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:50.600
losing your life to bring us here, and the pain and the anguish and

42
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:58.079
all that you go through to bring
us here, to see and hold us

43
00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:05.000
when we first come out, it's
a joy like no other. I may

44
00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:11.279
not remember my own, I doubt
anybody would, And if you do,

45
00:06:11.439 --> 00:06:16.519
you are you are beyond the genius
if you remember that. But I've seen

46
00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:24.639
it with my own the joy in
that and the mother's eyes to know that

47
00:06:24.879 --> 00:06:29.319
all of the pain and everything,
the labor that I've been through, not

48
00:06:29.480 --> 00:06:31.879
just at this time of labor to
bring you here, but the nine must

49
00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:39.600
leading up to this point are in
completion. In bringing this wonderful new life,

50
00:06:39.639 --> 00:06:47.519
this wonderful new person into this world. I can empathize with it,

51
00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:51.279
but I don't know what that joy's
like in itself. But me seeing it,

52
00:06:51.839 --> 00:07:10.000
I can imagine that most children's first
words a mama. So I'm do

53
00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:15.800
say dad first. My daughters can
test to that because their first words were

54
00:07:15.879 --> 00:07:27.560
dad. But most children their first
words a mama. Not to veer off

55
00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:30.839
for a second, but I'm just
gonna just just just I just want to

56
00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:33.319
give you I'm not trying to go
too deep right now, Cousins of king

57
00:07:33.319 --> 00:07:38.079
folks, I'm not. I just
want to just just set this stage here

58
00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:40.319
for if you just let me,
if you just walk with me, I

59
00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:43.519
promise you I'm I'm I'm I'm gonna
make it all makes sense. But if

60
00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:46.279
you just walk with me, cousins
and king folks, I ain't gonna lead

61
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:47.560
you too far. But if you
just walk with me here, just just

62
00:07:47.560 --> 00:08:00.360
walk with me, hear me out
here, most people, I'm I'm gonna

63
00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:01.720
do better to a little better that. I don't want to use the situation

64
00:08:03.279 --> 00:08:07.480
in making my point, but I
just I just want to give you an

65
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:13.560
idea and and and and respect to
these these individuals, condolences to them and

66
00:08:13.600 --> 00:08:18.600
their families and their loved ones.
But if I'm not gonna even name the

67
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:24.000
person, if we think about some
of the situations that we've seen over the

68
00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:35.759
last few years of individuals who were
in uncompromising situations, and who were the

69
00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:45.159
first people that they called mama?
Who is the last? That's that's the

70
00:08:45.159 --> 00:08:50.840
first person they called mama? Who
is the last? Some of them called

71
00:08:54.600 --> 00:09:01.879
mama when you was in school,
when we were in school, like in

72
00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:09.320
elementary school, and we know kids
are cruel, kids, teasing everything like

73
00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:13.240
that, But when you're in school, you can talk about a child.

74
00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:16.799
You can talk about anything about anybody. You can talk about them that close,

75
00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:20.600
what they had on, you can
talk about their daddy. But what

76
00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:24.919
said, what, what? What
names? What words? Sets each child

77
00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:31.879
off? That makes that situation escalate
from being something in fun to something serious.

78
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:39.399
Talk about that child, mama.
That's a that's a fight, that's

79
00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:41.039
a fight, that's a whole fight. Tell me I'm lying. Tell me

80
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:46.919
I'm lying. Cousins and king folks, tell me I'm lying. I don't

81
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:50.799
care what you said about that child
that whole time. Say something about that

82
00:09:50.919 --> 00:09:56.000
child, mamma, that's a whole
fight for the scrap right then at that

83
00:09:56.039 --> 00:10:01.519
moment, ain't that there's no more
talking again. I'm not a bored I'm

84
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:09.679
not promoting violence. I'm just trying
to get you to see what Mama means.

85
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:26.039
It's how powerful Mama is. Mama. Mama is the one that when

86
00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:31.120
you get sick, she's worried about
you the most. Mama is the one

87
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:35.799
that trying to make sure that you
got socks on your feet, that you're

88
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:41.200
borm, that you're that you're okay, that you're taking your medicine properly and

89
00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:43.200
everything like that, that you got
something to eat, that you got something

90
00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:56.879
and your sister. That's Mama.
That's Mama. Mama's the one that,

91
00:10:56.120 --> 00:11:03.879
no matter what you've done that could
be deemed disrespectful, first thing, Mama's

92
00:11:03.879 --> 00:11:11.519
still gonna say, that's still my
baby. Huh, tell me Eline,

93
00:11:11.240 --> 00:11:18.600
tell me Aline, cousin. Looking
folks, that's Mama. Mama is the

94
00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:22.039
one that and Grandma too, But
say Grandma's still an extension of Mama.

95
00:11:22.639 --> 00:11:28.679
Grandma's still an extension of Mama.
But if you out there in the world,

96
00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:37.000
who's only needs every night praying,
that's you all right, that's Mama.

97
00:11:41.600 --> 00:11:56.360
That's Mama. Mama will be there
when nobody else is there. Mama,

98
00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:05.759
it's still epitome of love. Mama
is the second closest thing. Two.

99
00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:11.080
It's the closest thing that we can
get as humans to God's love.

100
00:12:15.720 --> 00:12:24.039
Mama's. It's the closest thing that
we can get to that Mama loves unconditionally.

101
00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:35.039
It takes a lot for Mama not
to love you, or for Mama

102
00:12:35.080 --> 00:12:43.960
to wash her hands of you.
It takes a lot. Mama's the one

103
00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:52.120
that's making sure that you eat and
you're good. But she hadn't eaten anything

104
00:12:52.159 --> 00:13:05.200
that day, but just to make
sure that you are all right. Mama

105
00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:11.559
is the one that is run around
with clothes that they've been patched up,

106
00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:16.879
that they've been sewn together here or
there. Oh that's old and faded.

107
00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:24.720
Why are you still running around with
new shoes, new jeans, new slacks,

108
00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:33.440
new shirts, or whatever the case
may be. That's Mama neglect herself

109
00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:39.440
to make sure that you have clean
clothes. You have new clothes, you

110
00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:43.600
have food, you have electricity,
you have water, you have gas,

111
00:13:45.039 --> 00:13:50.320
you have a roof over your head. You're a safe place to stay that's

112
00:13:50.360 --> 00:13:58.879
mama. Mama will cut for you
when nobody else will cut for you.

113
00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:20.080
Huh, that's mama. It's unmatched
cousins and kin folks, and Mama always

114
00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:35.120
isn't even birth mama. Some mamas
are aunties, some mammas are grandma,

115
00:14:35.879 --> 00:14:46.039
some mammas are step mama's. Some
mamas are bonus mamas. I'm gonna stop

116
00:14:46.039 --> 00:14:48.360
there for sick. What do you
mean bonus mama? Well, this is

117
00:14:48.679 --> 00:14:52.000
this is what I mean, bonus
mama. Cousins and kin of folks.

118
00:14:52.559 --> 00:14:58.559
That she has developed a motherly bond
with you, and she does for you

119
00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:05.559
as if you was her own child. That she would discipline you as if

120
00:15:05.559 --> 00:15:07.399
you was one of her own childs, that she would admonished she when you

121
00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:11.000
was down bad, like he was
one of your own child. And when

122
00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:15.120
she will sit down and love on
you and make sure that you eat and

123
00:15:15.120 --> 00:15:26.600
make sure that you're good like she
birth you. Oh yeah, oh yeah,

124
00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:30.279
they do that. They out there. They exist, trust me.

125
00:15:30.360 --> 00:15:37.120
I know. I got two of
them. I got two of them.

126
00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:43.440
One of them is my sister.
She is my sister, but she was

127
00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:50.799
just like a mother. She's like
a mother to me. And when she

128
00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:54.840
tells me, so I take it
to her. I listen, you know,

129
00:15:54.960 --> 00:15:58.600
because she helped raise me. She
poured into me. She got into

130
00:15:58.679 --> 00:16:03.480
me when I was down bad.
She let be no, hey, your

131
00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:07.879
own baby brother, sich means I
had clothes, Sichman said, I had

132
00:16:07.919 --> 00:16:15.279
food, whatever the case may be. But she was my big sister at

133
00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:23.320
the same time. She's a bonus
mom to me, still is, and

134
00:16:23.399 --> 00:16:30.360
I love her dealing. So when
you have these people in your lives,

135
00:16:30.399 --> 00:16:36.759
cousins and kin folks that will pour
into you that way, you hold onto

136
00:16:36.840 --> 00:16:48.399
them. You hold onto them.
Now, for those of you who are

137
00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:56.440
blessed enough to still have your mama
in this world, on this earth and

138
00:16:56.480 --> 00:17:04.200
this plane of existence, however you
believe, love on her, cherish her,

139
00:17:06.759 --> 00:17:11.920
not just on this this this Mother's
day, but each day. Love

140
00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:22.440
on her, Cherish her, Cherish
that time you have with her, because

141
00:17:26.240 --> 00:17:33.240
when the Most High taps her on
her shoulder and say, well done,

142
00:17:34.160 --> 00:17:45.160
come on with me, it's time. You're gonna miss her. You're gonna

143
00:17:45.160 --> 00:17:55.000
miss her because there's nothing like There's
nothing like Mama, There is not,

144
00:17:56.079 --> 00:18:04.680
I'm here to tell you. So
you appreciate her each and every day and

145
00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:11.160
for my cousins and king folks that
are out there that um, your mother's

146
00:18:11.200 --> 00:18:18.079

love you all. I love you,

147
00:18:21.079 --> 00:18:26.559
and we're gonna be all we all
right, we're gonna remember the good times.

148
00:18:26.079 --> 00:18:30.559
We're gonna smile, and we're gonna
stand tall, and we're gonna sell

149
00:18:30.640 --> 00:18:34.119
Wenna were gonna. We're gonna still
celebrate Mama. Hear me, you,
