The fact that the DA could look at that video and decide to not charge them because the father is a friend, shows you how little they value black life. Look at how peacefully they arrested them, meanwhile in NYC black ppl are getting beat up and thrown in jail for not wearing a masks.
HotCocoaBangbang or he doesn’t want to be on the receiving end of the kkk wrath. A lot of these folks are just fucking cowards that know they’re fucked as a group and individually but won’t say or do the right thing because they’re pure punk bitches is all. And once we realize that only comprehend crazy and violence then we can even we can even the playing field
I saw pics of kkkops in NYC giving masks to pink people who were out and about, unmasked and not social distancing, side by side with pics of kkkops arresting Blacks who weren't wearing masks just minding their own business.
@Canadian Guy , shut up, you scary racist coward. You're so pussy that you have to hide your real profile or you're some lowdown scary bitch ass cop who got beat up his whole life so you become a cop to finally get some respect. Shut up bitch!!!!!
U hit the nail on the head. People are really asking why didnt he comply? So u are jogging and two men come out with guns and u are supposed to do what they say? Why??????? U have done lost ur mind
@Canadian Guy Maybe Just maybe he was looking for the workers or the owners of the house to ask them a question. But that doesn't matter. To answer your silly ass question. They didn't KNOW about him going into those houses. Not to mention the OWNERS denounced the killings and said NOTHING was stolen. So kiss my behind with that. He was not wearing slippers either. He was wearing shoes. But anything to justify killing our black asses.
Chris Rock made the joke that even a one legged, poor busboy wouldn’t trade place with him as a rich black man. The busboy recognizes the privilege of being white so he prefers to ride that out. 😩😩😩😩😩
Chris Rock made the dumbest comment ever said! 90 per cent of white people would trade places with a rich ,talented black comedian who has it made now if only for his money.
I watched a TH-camr today by the name of "The Officer Tatum" who is a Black, ex-police officer. He was stating that people were overreacting to Ahmaud Arbey's death, and that this "couldn't be racially motivated because we don't have the facts." He went on to justify that because Ahamud Arbery fit the description of a robber in the neighborhood, they had the "right to make a citizen arrest." He has over 400k subscribers (the majority are extreme right-wing supporters), and I was shocked that he would utilize his platform to defend these monsters. I say all this to say that I appreciate your educated, level-headed conversations. You discuss topics that are uncomfortable in a way that is engaging and challenging. You deserve more subscribers. It just makes me so sad. Seriously.
Citizen arrest still don't mean you have to right to kill. So if that's what their intentions were. why did they come with a gun to someone jogging. It was three of them. Surly three people together can hold someone until the cops arrive to do their job. The lies and corruption that go one in this country is sicken. May Allah BLESS his believers and the innocent.
Yes. I agree with both of you. It was just very disappointing to watch/listen to. There is no justification for shooting an unarmed person. And then to record it...wow.
I mistakenly clicked on one of his videos a while ago and I could not believe what I was hearing from him and reading from the comments of nothing but what appeared to be mostly white people. I cant remember which tragedy happened, but it was an unarmed murdered black man. Then I thought well maybe he just feels this way about THIS particular situation so I searched his channel for other unarmed black men murdered by police and his stance was the same on EVERY video. He is absolutely disgusting!!! Secondly, what I've learned is that, there has been *ONE* burglary in Brunswick in 2020, I believe it was 6 weeks before Ahmaud's murder. They claimed there were a series of burglaries in the neighborhood which is a lie.They also made it seemed like it had just happened. You mean I found this out and Officer Tatum didn't? Now mind you I only found out because someone informed me on another post. I went to Twitter, saw a tweet from a Jacksonville news reporter stating she received confirmation from the Brunswick newspaper about the one burglary. I saw other tweets as well. My husband did some additional research to confirm it also. Tatum has serious issues and I told TH-cam not to ever suggest his channel to me again. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to write a book, but it triggered me when I saw his name.
It really was. And that's why the family didn't get no money. That hug and accepting the police,( they gave him)the dumbest ninja award, he recieved from them was payment to the family.
Mysasser1 I heard one of Amaud’s best friend has already forgiven the killers stating “the death has nothing to do with race”🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️ We need to stop being so forgiving, no other race is like that.
Yesterday I was so angry and hurt just hearing about this. I do not want to watch the video. I was talking to one of my Filipino coworkers and he said that in just about every country a black person may experience some form of prejudice, but it is only here in the US that you are killed because of the color of your skin. Personally, I believe it probably still happens in S. Africa, I don't know. I loved the analogy you used. It explained the situation precisely.
I really listened to your commentary...and I agree with everything ...what I take away from all of this...is that White America still remembers black men were brought here to America as slaves...and they will never let that go. no matter how rich, no matter how famous, no matter how smart, Never!!! Same for the navajo tribes. Notice they don't prey on latinos, asian, etc. oh they don't like them either, but blacks...get back in those chains. Sad but true..
Actually, I don't feel whites think about it much at all. It's the blacks who won't let it go. We don't even discuss it with our kids. What they learn, they usually learn in school. Hatred for whites is taught at home. So I would have to disagree with you.

I told this story a while back. Many years ago, I was waiting for my baby bro's school bus (elm school) to arrive and a white officer came up to me, gun pointed. He was yelling commands, aimed it at my head, was asking me questions, etc. I had no clue what was going on. That was the first time I'd ever seen a gun and it was pointed at my head. I cried my eyes out because it was the scariest thing I'd ever experienced. Why did he do it? Because they were looking for a black male subject and _apparently_ I fit the description. Look at my picture people 🙄 I don't fit that description! I was sitting and he drove up to me and harassed me. I honestly think they get off on doing that to us. Had another officer not come to my defense, idk what would've happened bc he wasn't letting up at all. He didn't even apologize. I've been mortified of the police ever since. I am broken hearted for Auhmad because he probably didn't know what happened. It's just awful 🥺 It's as if they view killing us as a sport. I mean, that's pretty much what they did to us in the past smdh

This death hit different this time. This felt like Trayvon all over again. This man was two years older than me and I live in Georgia. The corruption of this case goes so deep, it's disgusting and enraging.
That people A do not understand or care to understand how their actions affect people B on the other side of the wall analogy was spot-on, spectacular, and informative. How does one make excuses for taking the life of an unarmed man? But yet want to protest about haircuts and being inside equals slavery (hmm, where Cletus? I think the enslaved would have a different take. #somebodywasdroppedontheirheads). I'll pray for justice for Ahmaud, and for Steven, and all the other black men (people) who have been killed with an open mind. Peace and blessings to you.
If philando Castile would have been a dog, that cop would have been locked up. Michael Vick is still suffering out the dog issue and white people didn't want him to get his job back! It's sad to know a dog's life hold more value in this country, than, a black person's life😭💔
I’m first and this is really breaking my heart and also angers me. The black on black crime comment coming from Mike Epps just angers me even more. Plus D.L. Reposting the video
I completely agree. I’m tired of some black people thinking that if all of a sudden black on black crime stopped that would stop white folks from killing innocent black people 🙄
Black people dont even care for themselves, yet wants a whole other group of people to care and accept them it doesn't work like that, too much black have selective outrage. Go have a March to get rid of the gang members in the black communities first, before worrying about white people being racist. Seems like It's okay for a black person to kill another black person, nobody gets outrage....shit makes you wonder. Go make videos about that..
S F. IT will not stop the killing of black people, but it will slow it down, because when white people see blacks killing each other, they look it as why do not have love fore one of other.
When we tell ourselves JUST what we want to hear it should make us feel better. Be honest and watch the video without the "I HATE WT" attitude. So boring. ZZZZZZZ

I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL🤓!!!! I get a history lesson everytime I watch. Your analogies and illustrations are on point!!!! I get my life when I watch your channel....LOL😁. Keep informing us Calvin🤓!
I have have conditioned myself to be very careful around random white folks in Georgia (or really anywhere). I am actually originally from Savannah (pretty sure I said that on here before), but lived in Atlanta (undergrad and masters) before moving out here to SLC for grad. school (PhD). I went to Emory for undergrad which is located in an upper middle income/wealthy area of Dekalb County. I usually liked to walk fast along sidewalks (say, walking from campus to the grocery store), but would fall back if I noticed I was a approaching a white woman on the same sidewak because I had no idea how they would respond if I went around them to over-take them. Maybe they would be a little afraid or something, but maybe they would be so startled that they tried to call the police or maybe they could even be armed. You never know because it is freaking Georgia! Even if the area is generally full of professors, students, and "liberal" white folks, I buck on taking any risks (I mean, I could be walking in an Emory t-shirt or be well-dressed and still avoided over-taking them). Also, on Castille: I hate that example so much because they try to play the "well the officer was Mexican/brown" as if Latinos, especially one in law enforcement can't be anti-black or be generally ASPIRING to whiteness like most other non-black groups in this country are allowed to, often with some success. And this is the case especially if they allow themselves to become a tool for white supremacy. Boy white supremacy is ready to lift these people up once they start doing their bidding which of course includes exploiting the vulnerability of black folks.
@tinbasher Typical Trump cultist, this has everything to do with trash like you. That's why Fox News racist asses always have to turn off the comments whenever they talk about this.
THANK YOU. One of your best video editorials. Seems like the more difficult the subject matter, the more you give voice to what other people are feeling and can't articulate.
To be honest I think we have prayed long enough. Its not working. If we take a mob justice approach people will start getting the hint. Locally just within our area anytime something goes down like this we do street justice to the perpetrator. Something has to be done and wishing for fairness aint working.
@@springchickena1 The cop out happens when people who are a part of that system act as they do within that system because of a system. Are you insinuating that I put all of my trust into a system that has done nothing for my people since we were brought here unwillingly? A system that continues to murder terrorize and brutalize my people? You must have lost your mind. Killing impulsive, evil murderers that have been doing the same thing for 400 plus years is nothing more than self defense. Since you present yourself to know the right thing to do, and I'm all for doing the right thing, tell me, how would you convince the courts? When the courts are a vein of white supremacy and institutionalized racism within this great american society. Tell me how you would convince that same court system that waited so long to put them in handcuffs. How much time should be allotted for your convincing, and yes those are James Baldwin's words to a degree not mine. I'll wait for your response. Trust, righteous is something I am far from, but what exactly is my facade do entertain me, I'm very curious.
We had the black panther party doing the very thing and look at what they did.....not saying that to kill the hope within the statement you gave I'm just saying we never did give up the fight back we just haven't been as aggressive as we had been in the past because they've gotten clever in their ways to make us more docile. Drugs, killing of image and knowing our lineage/legacy, destroying our family construct, imprisoning our men, feminization of our men and the masculinity push onto the women too the dividing us up by using shows like Jerry Springer, Maury, Basketball wife's, love n hip hop, etc. This list goes on. We seriously need to become aware of all this chaos that they have brought into our very essences only so that we can begin to heal and only then can we get back on the task of fighting back
It's hard to find TH-camrs talking about this situation because TH-cam keeps taking them out of the algorithm and replacing them with major news channels.
Calvin you are young but, very intelligent please keep doing what your doing speaking out against the injustice in America. I was beginning to feel that our young people are sleeping. Its very refreshing to hear you talk, that means it's still hope for our race.
Enjoyed this video, as always you brought the funk and broke it down right. Love your analogy. I've learned a lot from you young black man. Stay well and healthy and safe, be blessed. Please and thank you. Have a wonderful weekend. 😍😎🎶🎵👍💞😀❤💃🥂🍷🎂🍰🎂🍰
We need to get back to trade work. When you build the infrastructure; you make your community. We already have the blueprint. Laziness and showboating is the issue. When we were majority blue collar we were on top! Now it's just us trying to be in spaces we don't own.
Easier said than done. That Laziness and Showboating you speak of is the result of the oppressors sabotaging said trade work internally and externally throughout history. With seeing these results consistently for centuries has us hopeless realizing we literally cant do anything unless its by their own terms. Literally Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. Not saying the courage to make our own work isn’t coming back, Im just making notice of the pattern here.
I agree! But remember we don't have protection! Which is...has been...a major problem Thanks to "SLAVERY!" Brings to mind "Black Wall Street!" I just wonder how different things would be today if these types of communities would have been allowed to thrive like other ethnic groups, especially the "Asian communities!" To have had the opportunity to progress up until this very day???🤔😥
Melissa Sanders we tried to have protection via the black panthers and the progress we made with them. Look at how they flipped the image of them and then created gun laws because of said protection we developed.
@@Ted_Swayinghill Exactly! Teddy! This is what I meant! Research of our rich history and the viewing of other vloggers has clearly brought this into focus! Protection in the mist of "systemic racism" just will not stand!
Very insightful review. I watched a movie loosley based off of Michael Donald a while ago, but did not know the full background of his story. Very scarey indeed. To think that this is still going on today. It REALLY makes you wonder how safe we as black people REALLY are in this country. The times right now are just insane, and President Trump has YET to make ANY type of statment about this hanus crime that was commited against Ahmaud Arbery.
I really don't have much to say about this. It's pretty much self explanatory, in your face, obvious what this is. I will say this. Jogging ain't gon do nothing for this brother. Why do we always gotta be brand ambassadors for our own murders?
MAKE EM WORK!!!!! Lookie here I ain't come here to witness this read on society like this!!!! BAYBEEEE!!!!! Lemme tell you!!! This video gave me LIFE! I don't comment on videos, but this one right here!!!! KEEP BEING READY FOR THEM! WE'VE SEEN THIS MOVIE TOO MANY TIMES BEFORE!
I agree 100%. It’s painful. The whole thing gets further aggravated by the fact that people are willfully ignorant about it. That some people are purposefully ignorant and choose not to empathize. A young man is dead, and for what? He did NOTHING to deserve dying. We should all have empathy and respect. We should all be advocating for justice on behalf of Ahmaud Arbery.
Would you be fine if white people started protesting every white person killed by black people? Criminal or not? ... Nothing would get done and the country would have to shut down. 365 day protests lol. You obviously are clueless to reality.
Ugh... Its exhausting. So many thoughts about this.... My hometown is the area where Michael Donald was lynched. Mobile, Alabama. Thanks for addressing these issues Calvin.

Great analogy of the wall of privilege! Very true! I can't stand the gaslighting people do on this topic!
This death hit different this time. This felt like Trayvon all over again. This man was two years older than me and I live in Georgia. The corruption of this case goes so deep, it's disgusting and enraging.
His bday was yesterday, I think.
@@prettymelanin4870 it was. A lot of us jogging this weekend to honor them cause it was raining in some parts yesterday.
@Michael Meyer is that suppose to be a joke for yourself cause you're just trolling
@@tongvagaming9856 sad that you mocking a kid's death for attention
@Michael Meyer alright Karen. Go bark your racist views to your KKK brother's Facebook fund
That people A do not understand or care to understand how their actions affect people B on the other side of the wall analogy was spot-on, spectacular, and informative. How does one make excuses for taking the life of an unarmed man? But yet want to protest about haircuts and being inside equals slavery (hmm, where Cletus? I think the enslaved would have a different take. #somebodywasdroppedontheirheads). I'll pray for justice for Ahmaud, and for Steven, and all the other black men (people) who have been killed with an open mind. Peace and blessings to you.
Came across this channel by accident and I am not disappointed on my third video this definitely my new favorite channel THANK U 🙏🏽 💯🎯💪🏽😇💜💙✊🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Disgusting thugs. May he RIP 🌹. I love how you express your self when you tell stories.
The thugs are the father and son.
@@lastmanstanding6675 that's who she meant
@@raineyj560 Okay that's on me.
@@lastmanstanding6675 I think the thugs were the CGM.
If philando Castile would have been a dog, that cop would have been locked up. Michael Vick is still suffering out the dog issue and white people didn't want him to get his job back! It's sad to know a dog's life hold more value in this country, than, a black person's life😭💔
That part.
Hope Black Americans Hang in there to the best they can.
The rest of other Black experiences see you and love you.
I’m first and this is really breaking my heart and also angers me. The black on black crime comment coming from Mike Epps just angers me even more. Plus D.L. Reposting the video
Totally agree. Aries spears clapped back on them though.
I completely agree. I’m tired of some black people thinking that if all of a sudden black on black crime stopped that would stop white folks from killing innocent black people 🙄
well I think they want a White peoples community.
And we should have an African Americans community.
Black people dont even care for themselves, yet wants a whole other group of people to care and accept them it doesn't work like that, too much black have selective outrage. Go have a March to get rid of the gang members in the black communities first, before worrying about white people being racist. Seems like It's okay for a black person to kill another black person, nobody gets outrage....shit makes you wonder. Go make videos about that..
S F. IT will not stop the killing of black people, but it will slow it down, because when white people see blacks killing each other, they look it as why do not have love fore one of other.
2:22 - 2:47 THAT READ! THAT READ!!!!!!!!!!!
THAT READ WAS NOTHING BUT ABSOLUTE FACTS! WOW!
I sense that your monologue was a therapeutic for yourself, as it was for me. Well done
I agree!
When we tell ourselves JUST what we want to hear it should make us feel better. Be honest and watch the video without the "I HATE WT" attitude. So boring. ZZZZZZZ

Amen! Kan (hebrew)!!! YES!!!
I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL🤓!!!! I get a history lesson everytime I watch. Your analogies and illustrations are on point!!!! I get my life when I watch your channel....LOL😁. Keep informing us Calvin🤓!
Yard A and yard B.
I love it.
Thank you.
I want to thank you for your videos. Lot of very informative information. I look forward to seeing more of your videos. Thanks again for your posting.
perfect timing!
I have have conditioned myself to be very careful around random white folks in Georgia (or really anywhere). I am actually originally from Savannah (pretty sure I said that on here before), but lived in Atlanta (undergrad and masters) before moving out here to SLC for grad. school (PhD). I went to Emory for undergrad which is located in an upper middle income/wealthy area of Dekalb County. I usually liked to walk fast along sidewalks (say, walking from campus to the grocery store), but would fall back if I noticed I was a approaching a white woman on the same sidewak because I had no idea how they would respond if I went around them to over-take them.
Maybe they would be a little afraid or something, but maybe they would be so startled that they tried to call the police or maybe they could even be armed. You never know because it is freaking Georgia! Even if the area is generally full of professors, students, and "liberal" white folks, I buck on taking any risks (I mean, I could be walking in an Emory t-shirt or be well-dressed and still avoided over-taking them).
Also, on Castille: I hate that example so much because they try to play the "well the officer was Mexican/brown" as if Latinos, especially one in law enforcement can't be anti-black or be generally ASPIRING to whiteness like most other non-black groups in this country are allowed to, often with some success. And this is the case especially if they allow themselves to become a tool for white supremacy. Boy white supremacy is ready to lift these people up once they start doing their bidding which of course includes exploiting the vulnerability of black folks.
I was waiting on this!!! PREACH Cousin Calvin..🙌
Your video explains Trump supporters. Your videos are excellent as always.
@tinbasher get laid maybe then you won't be so angry. And I'm entitled to my opinion just like your nasty, rude stank ass.
Not all Trump supporters. I'm a Trump supporter and I whole heartedly agree with everything this brother is saying.
@tinbasher Typical Trump cultist, this has everything to do with trash like you. That's why Fox News racist asses always have to turn off the comments whenever they talk about this.
Becomes traumatic? It's been traumatic
What has been traumatic?
Thanks for speaking on this. It gets so hard hearing and seeing these incidents happen over and over again.
Bro u speak as eloquently as can be on black issues!! Continue doing a great job. Damn the haters
Calvin I couldn’t have said it better!! Your definitely speaking the truth period!!!
Calvin I really, really, enjoy your videos.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts 🙏 you're an awesome young man.
God bless you 🥰🥰🥰
THANK YOU. One of your best video editorials. Seems like the more difficult the subject matter, the more you give voice to what other people are feeling and can't articulate.
Watch how they gonna throw dirt on his name to make him look bad.
They already did
I love the way you break things down in your videos!
It's called cognitive dissonance. Anything that makes them feel uncomfortable is rejected out of hand.
To be honest I think we have prayed long enough. Its not working. If we take a mob justice approach people will start getting the hint. Locally just within our area anytime something goes down like this we do street justice to the perpetrator. Something has to be done and wishing for fairness aint working.
Sell everything and return to the land of your ancestors. Judgment is coming to north america
@@springchickena1 The cop out happens when people who are a part of that system act as they do within that system because of a system.
Are you insinuating that I put all of my trust into a system that has done nothing for my people since we were brought here unwillingly? A system that continues to murder terrorize and brutalize my people? You must have lost your mind. Killing impulsive, evil murderers that have been doing the same thing for 400 plus years is nothing more than self defense.
Since you present yourself to know the right thing to do, and I'm all for doing the right thing, tell me, how would you convince the courts? When the courts are a vein of white supremacy and institutionalized racism within this great american society.
Tell me how you would convince that same court system that waited so long to put them in handcuffs. How much time should be allotted for your convincing, and yes those are James Baldwin's words to a degree not mine. I'll wait for your response. Trust, righteous is something I am far from, but what exactly is my facade do entertain me, I'm very curious.
We had the black panther party doing the very thing and look at what they did.....not saying that to kill the hope within the statement you gave I'm just saying we never did give up the fight back we just haven't been as aggressive as we had been in the past because they've gotten clever in their ways to make us more docile. Drugs, killing of image and knowing our lineage/legacy, destroying our family construct, imprisoning our men, feminization of our men and the masculinity push onto the women too the dividing us up by using shows like Jerry Springer, Maury, Basketball wife's, love n hip hop, etc. This list goes on. We seriously need to become aware of all this chaos that they have brought into our very essences only so that we can begin to heal and only then can we get back on the task of fighting back
Keep the pressure on.
ThankYou for your honest opinion.
I love listening to you. Thank you
Damn good video Calvin.
SLEEP IN PEACE AHMAUD AUBREY
That yard A and yard B analogy was spot on!💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
It's hard to find TH-camrs talking about this situation because TH-cam keeps taking them out of the algorithm and replacing them with major news channels.
Calvin you are young but, very intelligent please keep doing what your doing speaking out against the injustice in America. I was beginning to feel that our young people are sleeping. Its very refreshing to hear you talk, that means it's still hope for our race.
Enjoyed this video, as always you brought the funk and broke it down right. Love your analogy. I've learned a lot from you young black man. Stay well and healthy and safe, be blessed. Please and thank you. Have a wonderful weekend. 😍😎🎶🎵👍💞😀❤💃🥂🍷🎂🍰🎂🍰
Wow! So on point with your scenario! Great content...may
G❤d continue you to bless!!!
When this news came out...I was so angry about this🤬 Thank you for your input to this unfortunate situation.
Sir, You have a new subscriber! You do amazing work.
I respect you young brother. Keep doing you!❤
We need to get back to trade work. When you build the infrastructure; you make your community. We already have the blueprint. Laziness and showboating is the issue. When we were majority blue collar we were on top! Now it's just us trying to be in spaces we don't own.
Easier said than done. That Laziness and Showboating you speak of is the result of the oppressors sabotaging said trade work internally and externally throughout history. With seeing these results consistently for centuries has us hopeless realizing we literally cant do anything unless its by their own terms. Literally Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. Not saying the courage to make our own work isn’t coming back, Im just making notice of the pattern here.
I agree! But remember we don't have protection! Which is...has been...a major problem Thanks to "SLAVERY!"
Brings to mind "Black Wall Street!" I just wonder how different things would be today if these types of communities would have been allowed to thrive like other ethnic groups, especially the "Asian communities!" To have had the opportunity to progress up until this very day???🤔😥
Melissa Sanders we tried to have protection via the black panthers and the progress we made with them. Look at how they flipped the image of them and then created gun laws because of said protection we developed.
@@Ted_Swayinghill Exactly! Teddy!
This is what I meant! Research of our rich history and the viewing of other vloggers has clearly brought this into focus! Protection in the mist of "systemic racism" just will not stand!
@@Ted_Swayinghill we can try again and make it work. I hope you aren't a boy or a troll though.
This was beautifully done.
Why did We didn't start the 🔥 start playing in my head
Thank you. I always enjoy your content. It's always well researched and insightful.
Very insightful review. I watched a movie loosley based off of Michael Donald a while ago, but did not know the full background of his story. Very scarey indeed. To think that this is still going on today. It REALLY makes you wonder how safe we as black people REALLY are in this country. The times right now are just insane, and President
Trump has YET to make ANY type of statment about this hanus crime that was commited against Ahmaud Arbery.
Great commentary family! Keep up the great work.
I really don't have much to say about this. It's pretty much self explanatory, in your face, obvious what this is. I will say this. Jogging ain't gon do nothing for this brother. Why do we always gotta be brand ambassadors for our own murders?
Thanx Lil Bro, i don't think it could be better explained. We live in a very wicked country.
Thank you for this, Great Job!!
well said young man! like your take on the “good” caucasians getting butt hurt and veering out of their damn lanes
Great video ! I normally just watch without commenting however a lot of what you said in this video resonated with my spirit.
I need you to be more popular already! Your intelligence and way of painting a picture is absolutely aboveboard!
Justice may be served but there will still be a young man hunted down and killed for nothing.
Absolutely great analogy!
Calvin is so young and so wise!
Well stated Calvin!!..i like your commentary!!..i hope to see more of your videos!!!
MAKE EM WORK!!!!! Lookie here I ain't come here to witness this read on society like this!!!! BAYBEEEE!!!!! Lemme tell you!!! This video gave me LIFE! I don't comment on videos, but this one right here!!!! KEEP BEING READY FOR THEM! WE'VE SEEN THIS MOVIE TOO MANY TIMES BEFORE!
I have been waiting to hear your thoughts on this situation. Senseless killing smh
The gophers don’t even wanna mess it up 😂
My brother lives in Georgia. Who knows it could've been him.
I agree 100%. It’s painful. The whole thing gets further aggravated by the fact that people are willfully ignorant about it. That some people are purposefully ignorant and choose not to empathize.
A young man is dead, and for what? He did NOTHING to deserve dying. We should all have empathy and respect. We should all be advocating for justice on behalf of Ahmaud Arbery.
Would you be fine if white people started protesting every white person killed by black people? Criminal or not? ... Nothing would get done and the country would have to shut down. 365 day protests lol. You obviously are clueless to reality.
We should look at the facts of this case
Love your dialog and intellect. New subbie
This is one of the best videos that I’ve seen about this topic, very well said!! 👍🏾✊🏾
Ugh... Its exhausting. So many thoughts about this.... My hometown is the area where Michael Donald was lynched. Mobile, Alabama. Thanks for addressing these issues Calvin.
Omg you have family in Utica,Mississippi. I’m from Jackson which is about 20 minutes away. Small world. And yes we are very friendly here.
Mattie Davis really girl what part?
Thank you so much for this, your necessary commentary! So eloquently broken down my brother!
Wow, that was immensely sobering.
Thank you. I am totally subscribing.
Or “how dare he jog on the public sidewalks” fmllllll people are blind
Sickens me!!! I just want our Black men and boys to live.
I’m getting a gun.

I am so damned happy that you exist!
Awesome analysis from a man destined for bigger things in the near future. Thanks.
Excellent analysis Calvin! God bless you!
He said,"Sweet Caroline", I'm dead! LOL.....
I thought here in the UK was bad. But the USA is really f’d up! 🙁
Yeah this guy brought this all on himself with the history of fighting with the Police.
I loved the Yard A/Yard B analogy-excellent description of the mindset and treatment of Whites vs. Blacks.
I couldn't have said it better young brother. You absolutely nailed it...
Calvin you preach man! 🔊 I always respect your point of view. Your parents did a great job. 🤔
Great dialogue brother. Wish more people were aware of your channel. I’m going to share this video with my father and brother
We are so tired of this. Retaliation at some point has to become the norm. 🤷♀️
There is no need to retaliate for he was caught stealing.
Your sarcasm gives me life , i swear😂. As serious as the issue at hand is you still managed to make me laugh
