He meant that!
❤😂 😂I ❤️ my folks
@@lakersin556 uh huh..
Respect 👌🏽
💯💯💯💯💯💯
Viola is my grandmother. I am very happy to see them on here and to get her story out. Uncle red is a very very funny person. He has some great stories as well. And my cousin Ike has done a great job. The granddaughter they talked about that just graduated from Howard is my daughter Reagan.
Congratulations to her and to you! ❤
Congrats to your daughter graduating🎉 it’s a big blessing for you all to have them still with y’all. I have family in Tulsa who still refuse to speak about the subject of The black Wall Street
Blessings fam. Strong, Beautiful peoples.
Congratulations 🎆 to your Family. many years of Blessings
And Yet Our Dumb Black A$$E$ Still Go Vote & Continue To Lose, Struggle, Beg & Not Practice Group Economics Because We Addicted To Failure......SMDH!
Do y'all UNDERSTAND how POWERFUL this is? To have THIS kind of information on THIS platform?! Thank you, Breakfast Club, for providing a BALANCE to the BULLSH#T!
I’ve been listening to them for about 11 years and in my opinion, they’ve always done a great job at balancing the ratchet and powerful information on their platform.
Exactly. I hate it has such low views but the BS gets millions of clicks.
Yes bcuz ppl seem to love to try to change history these days we need to hear it straight from their mouth
GREAT COMMENT BROTHA! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Amen 🙏🏿
The lady doesn't need to say very much. Her presence is powerful enough. The fact of her existence and longevity speaks for itself. Quiet regality hits you different.
Yep
Exactly❤❤❤
I couldn’t stop staying at her! Her presence says everything!
@@clchawaii09 you can tell she not playing about this s***
Fax🙏🏾
They are so precious . This literally living black history. This made me cry . I hope you all do more stories like this.
Fr they need too
Naw fr family 💯💯💯 our people don’t know how important this was
I feel for our Elders. The trauma that they witness - the wealth that was STOLEN from them. My God.
109 still doing interviews and traveling, what a blessing
I’m talking about true blessing you hear me ? God is great!
My great-uncle A.W. Stewart was also a survivor of the Tulsa massacre. He passed at nearly 99 years old back in 2019. Praise to these great elder survivors for telling their story.
I’m so glad her grandson got her to tell the story. We should ask all our elders the stories that we don’t know.
Agreed!
Not everybody is as open as they are tho.
I believe it’s real life PTSD that’s keeping most of them quiet. A lot if them witness murders/lynchings etc and a lot more atrocities and weren’t in the military in battle. 😢
That is so true! My biggest regret is not RECORDING the phenomenal family history my grandmother, aunts, and uncles passed down. As a race we are rich in oral history but we don’t write things down!
Love hearing these elders speak with clear and sound mind. This interview should have over 1million views.
Facts!!
Fax
It absolutely should
Mother Fletcher is still VERY sound in her right mind, and she was listening to everything!! Although she didn't say much out of her mouth, her head nod and facial expressions let us all know she was and is VERY present with us and knows what's being said and what's going on! Love hearing from our elders.
She nodded and said that’s right about God keeping her around for a reason and that it was a blessing to be alive. She hears very well. She just chooses to respond to those things that are positive. Her positivity is probably what kept her living this long.
This brought tears to my eyes. The things our people have lived and fought thru. We STILL have a long way to go.
And we out here on bullshit
Its you're own people hurting you're community killing eachother out of marriage having kids 60% plus single mothers, drugs gang culture
Halfway through it got to me too.
Get on code that easy but our people want to be underneath weaker nations.
🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
today my grandma would’ve been 93. she passed at 79 when i was 14. this brought me so much joy hearing from these elders. may God continue to bless them!
My grandmother my mother's momma, would have been making a 113 this October. She passed at 97, i was 27. In the crazy part, me and her are born on the same day!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
AMEN 🙏🏾
🧢
Jeez, these is probably the most legendary guests y’all ever had. This is true black history.
This
Facts!
OMG, I'm almost 74, and I don't sleep at night. I'm afraid of darkness and keep lights on at all times. I believe it's a result of trauma I experienced as a child. Due to having diabetes, I am struggling to keep my eyesight and am undergoing numerous laser surgeries. The worse that could happen is the loss of my vision. I am encouraged by Mother Fletcher's story. That I could not like darkness, not sleep at night, and still live a long life. May God bless our elders. We must keep their story alive and never allow it to be forgotten. 😪
I love Uncle Red he just as REAL as they come... PeriodT. This was a opportunity for us to finally really hear their voice. Thank u Breakfast Club.
Facts
They are both there. She knows actually what’s going on in the room. There is no dementia, just her fluid communication skills a little rusty but she’s all there. What a life.
She’s more alert than Biden 💀
@@VGMDK1999 you're obsessed man. Get help
@@VGMDK1999Big facts! 😂
@@VGMDK1999😂😬🫣and the catch is she got him by 30+ yrs 😅
Goodness Gracious, she's 107 years old what do you expect
Can we get more interviews like this I feel like I’m learning a lot from the elders they have the knowledge to help it move forward
Still living in fear. Breaks my heart. Sleeping w the lights. God bless them please
Yes. This still happens to blk, we live in fear because our fear is real
When he started crying saying "she's the first person to break the curse" that did it for me. Definitely going to purchase that book.
3:21-3:52
My great-great-great-grandmother lived to be 103, and I knew her very well. Her mind was still sharp, she didn't wear glasses, she didn't have high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, absolutely nothing. She told her son she was going to bed, when he woke up the next morning she had transitioned in her sleep. That's the true meaning of natural causes, and I don't care what no one else says. When you are older, have no health problems, and you go in your sleep, that's natural causes.
My grandpa was 105 when he passed 2 years ago. Went the same way
What a wonderful story! There’s a popular saying, “Well I have to die from something.” But that’s not true! We need to understand that you don’t have to die from ANYTHING…when your time is up, you just die. Thanks for sharing this!😊
she smiled so hard when she said she wanted to be a nurse omg
Now THIS is what makes the Breakfast Club the best.
This is why they beat hot97 because they are always trying to remove hip hop from its black cultural roots.
This interview is hard evidence why Foundational Black Americans need reparations. Hearing their stories about what was taken away from them before they even had a starting chance was sad to hear. Being reminded what they had to live with and had to struggle through represents what Black America has been dealing with since America's inception. That repeated saying through the entire interview "what opportunities I could of had if Black Wall Street was never destroyed". As I learn about my family history, I start ask that same question, I joined the military for the same reasons as those men in the interview did. My life has been tremendously blessed but at the same time I still ask would it had been easier for me, if my ancestors were never oppressed? Just a thought.
Unfortunately we’re not unified like the Asians, Jews, and whites. So only a select amount of us fight for reparations. The majority are adding into the “black crime” statistics. So they won’t take us seriously if we don’t even take ourselves that way (not speaking to you as an individual, but the majority in these Democratic Urban cities). We’re the only community that has a youth glorifying violence, hiding criminals with the no snitching rhetoric, and older generations are too afraid to step in and take the reigns. It’s really every man for himself.
These people are blessed, protect them at all costs. Living ancestors.
This is why I hate when people say that we act like victims. Every time we do something, it gets destroyed. We’re not victims, we’re just exhausted and feel defeated. If everything you try to do/build to progress in life gets destroyed by racists people, how would you not feel defeated? A lot of us still keep going but we’ve never been victims like people think we are. We still fight everyday.
we are easily the most resilient people. no matter what happens, we rebuild again and again.
💯💯🔥🔥
This!!
WE ARE BLACK PEOPLE AND WE ARE ONE, that part!!🙏🏽❤❤
Wow, God is so good! 109 and 102 and still in their right minds, able to talk, see, etc. Truly a blessing and so much wisdom!!! May God continue to bless and keep you both in Jesus's mighty name!!! ❤
Amen ..and Amen again Sista
I am so blessed by this interview. I am literally shedding tears. Not out of sadness but out of respect for these elders as well as all of our ancestors that fought for our freedom and are still fighting today.
What a honor to witness the elders. Thank You Mother Fletcher and Uncle Redd for living long enough to keep the Black wall Street story alive 100 years later. Shout out to the breakfast club, today you have made millions of ancestors proud. You used media to uplift inspire and educate. This is media at its best!
This is by far, the most POWERFUL interview ever! Thank you. And someone reach out to the Obamas so Uncle can meet the first black president. Please
No thanks. He's not black and wouldn't have done anything anyway. His record speaks for itself.
When I used to work at nursing home I would love sitting and talking to the residents. The stories they would tell. The knowledge. I would sit for hours .
My 2 grandmothers were over 95 years old when they passed. You can learn lot from listening to their stories.
This is blessing! Shout out to the Breakfast Club for having them as guests and allowing them to tell their stories! May God continue to cover keep them, in Jesus name, AMEN!
AMEN!!!
Amen🙏🏾
Amen❤
Amen 🙏🏾 🖤🖤🖤
This interview shows why we need to stop beefing and killing each other love these two...true royalty 👑 ❤❤
Faxx
Uncle Redd is the definition of wealthy!!! Money can’t buy anything he has ❤
As A Jamaican.. I truly have so much respect for Foundational Black Americans.... You have no Idea..
Facts shout out to my FBA brothers love from South Sudan 🇸🇸
It's the trauma you know they endured but they are still standing like a national treasure.💯
Facts. I'm Jamaican too and i try to tell other immigrants to never look down on African Americans. They're the reason why you (Asians, Carribeans, Africans,etc) have the rights to thrive in America. All they've know is systematic oppression and they've fought all the way.
This is history from the actual source… Everyone should support them and most definitely watch this interview. I’m buying the book now!
So glad that y’all finally got Mother Fletcher on here!!! God bless her, Uncle Redd and her grandson🙏🏽
Whew this is so touching. Love up on your elders and listen to their stories.
THIS WAS SO POWERFUL THAT I GOT CHILLS. I could feel the power of each of them, their past struggles and how they want the best for us. I Love It
Thank you for having these amazing Elders and Pillars of our struggle on your platform.
This interview brought joy to my heart! What blessing!!! Their presence is so powerful. I absolutely love hearing stories from elders. MUCH RESPECT ❤
😢😢❤❤
“Get busy living or get busy dying”
I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. I love hearing black stories and needed to hear this conversation and that quote. They travelled all the way to Africa in the pandemic at 107 yrs old. I’m only in my early 30’s and stayed far away from planes until recently. I’m gonna work on getting back to living cuz ik I need to. Preciate y’all man fr 🖤
God bless them and their entire families! I pray they live another 10 years and get the justice they deserve!
Amen.
....and live longer to enjoy it. Lord, keep their minds and health sharp as You continue to bless them with longevity 🙏🏽
Dr. Umar sound like Uncle Redd said "Men don't step up like they should." I love Uncle Redd he has so much hope and I hope he live for another 28 years.
Incredible interview. God Bless these elders for being around to still tell the truth
The way I’m tearing up at work got me in my feelings.
By Far my favorite interview I have ever seen you guys do. God bless Mother Fletcher and Uncle Redd
"It looks promising, but we have to keep fighting though" I felt that.
It’s the fact that these schools don’t want to acknowledge what ppl have actually experienced!
And here we have it on the Breakfast Club 2 older living individuals who have experienced first hand the discrimination, and overall difficulties of being black in America.
Thank u Breakfast club for this interview. 🖤🖤🖤
Power of media. Evil of government schools.
We honor dear Mother Fletcher and Uncle Redd! Thank you to these amazing stories and legacies
Already one of the best interviews ❤ We need to learn from our elders. Listen to their wisdom.
Not normally moved to tears but hearing this story did me in. Bless them...
This interview was touching and motivating as a black man to never quit.
This conversation was truly powerful just having them both in the room. It all brought tears to my eyes. I’m so grateful for this example of perseverance and creating the book so we have the record. Thank you for traveling and teaching us all.
We're witnessing history personified. People who've lived through eras and historical events that some could only DREAM of fathoming internally. More relevant than any interview put out on TBC this year. It's just a massive shame that these interviews don't get the millions of views that a 50 Cent or Boosie one would.
They was up at 4 in the morning ready for the show😂😂. My great grandma was 102 when she transitioned. They take a boat load of knowledge to the grave. Soak up as much game from them as possible.
Just ordered the book on Amazon. August 11th release date! Thank you Mama for having the COURAGE to tell your story. I moved to Tulsa 5 years ago and in 2018 was the FIRST time America heard about the Tulsa Massacre. It is STILL very relevant today (its like the black people from here are scared to death...and I now understand why). Racism is still very real here but hopefully sharing this testimony will empower Americans to NEVER LET SOMETHING LIKE THIS TO EVER HAPPEN AGAIN!!!! 😢
Seeing the elders broight tears to my eyes due to their longevity and what they had to endure with the black wall street bombings
This makes me fight even harder for my elders!!
I've got to share this with my Mother.
This is history. This woman is living history. A walking monument ❤🤎✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Wonderful interview! Very insightful & educational. My Grandmother is 85 & I ask questions all the time. I value her wisdom, history, & time spent with her. Our elders have endured a lot & deserve much respect for their journey traveled & sacrifices made. Blessings to All! ❤🙏❤
i am in tears looking at them...they are so beautiful and i love that they exist .
Celebrities in their own right!!! Glad TBC had them own to share their history.
A great use of such a big platform. These stories need to remain in the forefront of our minds. Never forget #tulsamassacre
Thank you Breakfast Club for sharing such a Inspirational TRUE story of The Tulsa Massacre!!..🙏🏽🙌🏽❤️God Bless Sister Fletcher and Uncle Redd!!🙏🏽🙌🏽❤️💐💐💎💎❤️❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽🥰
Such a beautiful and inspiring show. Il love listening to elders speak. God Bless the grandson, such a beautiful soul. I do remember hearing the story about a brother and sister over 100 who traveled to Ghana. This is them!!! Here I am, thinking I was too old to start traveling again.
This interview was needed. We uplift them and are thankful for their continued fight for Justice.
Brazilian here… don’t intend to make this a white v black thing, but it’s amazing to me that white people can watch this and think systemic racism isn’t a thing… to think that white privilege isnt a thing.. nuts
Nothing wrong with being white or being part of the majority but here we have to this day a living example of generational trauma, generational disadvantages. It’s not about solely what’s going on today.
One governmental policy or action today can affect demographics for generations. Wont be fixed in a short period of time but the least we can do is acknowledge and agree on this obvious issue
Well said the Government can end the bullshit. But why would they. Government is the blame
The U.S. govt. is obviously waiting these old victims out.....that' way they can say, "All of the ppl of Tusla who were victimized are dead so there is no need for compensating anyone." And like Chalamange said, it would open the gates for more events in recent history that happened to be fully addressed financially. America is one be hypocrisy and I am glad ppl across the globe like you can see it and call it out....
Well said Brazilian brotha well said
They don't think. They deny.
They know systematic racism exists they created it and try to protect it.
Bless the grandson for speaking an knowing how powerful this is!
Speechlesss by this interview.........so heartfelt and so infuriating at the same time. Reparations now!!!
I would absolutely love to hang out with them. Grab a pen and pad and take notes. I know Grandma can cook ill get all kind of recipes and I’ll listen to uncle all day.
103 years later she still has PTSD from the Tulsa Race Massacre 😢😢. Generational trauma passed down😢 they stole Generational Wealth and had to work as sharecroppers for white folks. That's so tragic 😢. I love their strength and powerful presence 🙌🏿👑
I’m getting the book today! Mother Fletcher and Uncle Redd are just amazing! I love them.
These two have seen a lot and experienced a lot. So glad they’re still here to right some wrongs!
Much respect to the Breakfast Club this is one of my greatest interview you ever showed for black history thank you. As a Foundational Black American the government owe us reparations cash payments we build America brick by brick for the debts and sins owed to us bottom line!! Black Love Equal to Black Wealth Equal to Black Power. FBA/B1🖤✊🏿👏🏿💯
Why am I getting emotional watching this😢! Like in a a good way. They are so precious and informative. I have nothing but respect for them ❤
God Bless them ❤❤ Loved listening to this interview. We need to hear more of these stories 🙏🏽🙏🏽 Black history is American history ❗️
This interview got me choked up! I’m so blessed to be alive to hear this!
This was edifying to my soul. Thank you for having these priceless gems on the show. Hands down one of the best interviews, period. This has inspired me to resume volunteering at the retirement homes again.
They look so wonderful... may GOD continue to bless them and keep them. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This was so needed. I could have listened to them another hour
The best breakfast club interview ever. Much needed.
Living history thank God they are here to tell there stories
Amen to that.
This is Beautiful to see!! Big Shout out to the family and friends supporting these elders on a daily basis!!
Lost my gma December 1st she was 94. Till she died was way sharper than I was. Happy she didn't suffer. Woman from Alabama. 😢miss you granny. At the gym listening to this can't stop hearing her in my head
My daddy from Tulsa he raised me in Cali but he always said Tusla got some of the toughest realest ones ever now I know why....✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Hands down... The most POWERFUL interview this show has done. I'm in tears, but I'm thrilled to have additional memories of the resilience of our people.
This by far is top 5 best interviews on here period you should invite them back a lot and get deep they are inspiring and motivating 💯💯 keep on living 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
OMG The Fletchers🙏🏾🙏🏾💗💙 real legends! Love this..I saw them on TJ cruise had No idea they were from Tulsa❤ I’m from Okmulgee and we Never heard about the Tulsa riot in school either…..when I saw them on congress speaking I’m like he was on the cruise… let me tell you he push his sister in the wheel chair the whole time on that cruise!!!🙏🏾 hope they receive some compensation soon.
I love this interview….I appreciate you guys for bringing black history to us, ehile we still have them
The fact that this doesn't have over 1 million views by now shows where our attention span is, these elders are speaking from experience and sharing wisdom gained from it.
We're entranced with the bullsh!t.....
This was much needed. We needed to see those Beautiful Black faces; we needed to hear those melodic voices.🤎🤎
So much game and gems to be learned just by sitting with and listening to our elders. These conversations are oh so important and wayyy invaluable. Thank you DJ Envy, Charlamagne and everyone at the breakfast club for this amazing sit down
This interview should’ve been longer I love to here how they survived this long
Out of all your shows this was really educational, sometimes I can not read about history because it’s hurts me so bad how our people was treated, slowly I am reading and watching about our history and I bought the book
This warmed my heart and was very much needed for OUR culture. Thanks Breakfast Club for inviting them and exposing us all to this AMAZING Story. PS: They look good and healthy at over 100.
Preciate these “Hidden Figures” & their families who’ve supported them.❤
Uncle Redd is confident that we will prevail. I’m confident in him. Much love to both of them ❤.
