Malcolm X on Entertainers as Leaders, Puppets and Clowns

A classic clip of Malcolm X is played where he criticizes the white community for setting up black entertainers—such as comedians, singers, and dancers—as "leaders" for the black community. Malcolm X refers to these figures as "puppets and clowns" who say what the white establishment wants to hear. The hosts apply this critique to Diddy, questioning if he is a truly "awake" leader or just another entertainer pushing an agenda.

Dick Gregory, White Supremacy vs. White Privilege

Comedian and activist Dick Gregory explains the distinction between white supremacy and white privilege, noting that those with privilege are often sacrificed by the supreme class in wars. One host shares a personal anecdote about meeting Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace, describing her eyes as "dark and empty." The segment concludes that true whiteness is about elite bloodlines and trillions of dollars, not just skin color.
