BREAKFAST CLUB!!!! Y’all out here educating us and bringing heavy hitters on your show! What a transition your show has had and I’m proud I’ve been rocking with y’all throughout. Let’s keep the energy going!
Love it. Perfect mix of ratchet and education lmao
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙏🏽
I’m
Yes Dr. Claud Anderson and these two!
Yup! Huge change since Dame Dash shook that show up with his first interview.
Don is a beacon of hope for emerging developers. True legend.
Agreed! 💯
Is his wife blk
Also agree 💯
Facts
ALL BLACK PEOPLE If you're being real with it. I feel like expanding into spaces never thought of for Black people.
Don Peebles is one of my favourite entrepreneurs. His book Peebles Principles is amazing.
On it. Thank you
Thanks for the book recommendation.
I've read that one too. You should also check out "The Billion Dollar BET" about Robert Johnson the guy who started BET, and "Why should White Guys have all the fun" about Reginald Lewis.
@@tupactargaryen I've got Reginald Lewis's book but not Bob Johnson's. I'll add it to my list now. Appreciate it! 🙏🏽
I'm bout to grab that immediately!
I met Ms McKissack at the National Organization of Minority Architects convention in Chicago (I believe) back in the 90's. As one of 2 black female architecture students at that time, it was so inspiring to me to see another black woman in the profession. I hope I am one day able to rent an office in Affirmation Tower!
Where are you working now? Would you available to participate in a project?
@@magmaraymaker.kweenkleokat8779 Hi. I am based in the Bay Area, California. What project is it? I would love to participate.
I will send details via email!
@@magmaraymaker.kweenkleokat8779 did you send? What email did you use?
WOW What a powerful inspiring interview. We need more and more interviews like this. Well done again Breakfast Club
Literally
Outstanding!
I'm going to show this to my students at Bennett College during our lesson on Reparations - Breakfast Club you are moving mountains for our community. THANK YOU!.
Great guests. Kanye was saying the same in terms of being influential and wealthy and still being blocked in the fashion world. His delivery was unhinged and incoherent, but similar concept. Cheryl and Don are worth 100's of millions of dollars, intelligible, and all the good stuff, and still being blocked in the real estate/ development field.
They are literally worth BILLIONS but still experience life as a Black person smh
Breakfast Club - Charlemagne & DJ Envy your non-music interviews are on point... Please continue and expand these type of interviews... Thank you...
These two are the best guests you guys have had on this show since Dr Claude Anderson. Every single point they made was absolutely right. Great Great interview. And this is coming from a guy who typically hates your interviews and your guests. I just hope you guys will have them on again in a few months to get an update on their building project...👍✊👏👏👏👏👏👏
GREAT INTERVIEW! MCKISSACK is my cousins family. My Grandad also had a big Construction business. Great business to be in and love seeing these types of accomplishments ❤
Excellent interview. Read Don's book last month. On his 2nd now. In the RE game completing my GC license. Great mentor from afar. Sky is the limit ✊🏾💪🏾🏡🏦💰
Awesome! I need to grab his book ASAP! Thank👊🏽💯
What’s gc license

Just WOOOOOOW!!!!!! This is by far one of the best interviews I have seen in a very long time on the Breakfast Club. I’m so inspired as a black business owner and so hopeful that we as blacks and brown people are heading in the right direction. All we want is fairness and we will continue to push forward until we get it! And it’s not that far! Thanks to these two very powerful Black Icons and American Heros.
Ps. We have to start holding our Black Churches accountable for not putting our black money in black owned Banks! EVERY Monday morning, Black churches put hundreds of millions if not billions of Black dollars into white Banks only for those money to be given to whites as loans to help keep us behind!
Black churches ⛪️, STOP putting your black dollars in white banks! Google black banks and move your money there. Just make sure it’s ACTUALLY owned by blacks!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤣💯💪🏿✌🏾✊🏾
True, I don't know about other churches but my church banks with a black owned bank
You are so right , hold them accountable. Our churches seemed to have made a deal with the devil
I like these two, and to be honest I feel if we had more people like them as kids growing up we would know that the sky was truly the limit. Instead of just hearing it we will see it. I also appreciate their honesty as far as even though being a Democrat saying that Trump property would have done more and expressing that he was unhappy with what Obama has done or hasn't done
So true. We’ve also had them for more than 30 years. I also think we should look at the folks to our left and right. We have the opportunity to be next.
@@LegendaryRob that's definitely a fact. Not all of us had a privilege of growing up with folks like this in our family. So looking to speak to the people to the left and right of us would do nothing.
He’s married to the whitest white woman on earth and that’s where all his wealth is going to. Do you think he would have gotten as far as he did if he was really for the empowerment of black people.
@@sisterches6306 honestly speaking who he decided to love had nothing to do with none of us. We live in America where you're free to marry whoever you choose.
Reading through the comments... I see the person & comment you are referring too!
My comment remains the same on the matter!
My observation is that she obviously can't relate to the gems & knowledge dropped so she did the only thing "most" of our people know how to do is... talk about something messy & irrelevent to the message. Smfh! Damn shame!
This McKissack & Peebles interview is a classic and one of BC's best!! "Your money can work harder than you..." Thank you so much!!💕💕🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏼🙏🏼
I LOVE this! As a project manager in construction, this warms my heart. There are so few of us in this industry.
So glad they did this interview. We’re heavily underrepresented in the Commercial Real Estate Industry so I hope this inspires people to get involved. Don did it without a college education and is thriving. Imagine how we can build off of this, the sky’s the limit.
Affirmation Tower must happen! Great interview 👏🏽
Love this interview! Nothing but ideas and solutions. Probably the best interview the Breakfast Club has ever done!
Love to see this: The wisdom! The vision! The execution! ECONOMIC INCLUSION. It’s so good to see people that have “made it” working together to create a MASSIVE monument to their people. Yes!
Great interview and information! I love that they didn't shy away from saying Black People! We get tricked into including everyone (saying people of color) so that we sound and act inclusively while other "people of color" reap the benefits of our struggle. Please give us more of these interviews.
Wow!! I just watched the video about black upper class and watched Mr Peebles and many more like him. Happy to watch this video, you rock The breakfast club…🕺🏼🕺🏼🕺🏼❤️❤️
I so appreciate this information as a black women and mother who has a son who is very inspired by Don Peebles to do what he does and I am inspired by both Don and Cheryl to change my career to real-estate, Economics and politics and help our people. Thank you thank SO INSPIRED!!! #AffirmationTower ready to see all the opportunities our community will gain with this project!
Don Peebles is so right about us helping each other. My former Fortune Five Hundred company used a black supervisor and black HR Director to get rid of me after working 27 hard years because I followed company policy and complained about racist images being uploaded on my computer after they claimed they didn’t know how it happened!
I helped build the Javits Center here in NYC, I'm about to see how I can amply to project manage with them and CBRE...I want to give my talent and work for this project. #BlackExcellence
I will be rooting for you!!!
💯💪🏿🔥🤣✊🏾🙏🏽✌🏾
I randomly stumbled upon him in a special about not famous wealthy black people. Loving this interview.
Me too!! I just watched it.
Same

@Christopher Baker: Me too. I just watched him few weeks ago...
Literally just watched him last night on that show. Was watching this episode on BC and said to myself, ‘Gee he looks familiar’ then it hit me. Great episode though.
Black excellence…I just watched a documentary on Don a few days ago…i love how they came with concrete ways building affirmation tower will have positive financial impact for the black community
Aight everybody, we got work to do!!!!! This is amazing. 🖤
Don Peebles reminds me of Dr Claude Anderson.
And remember, there’s nothing wrong with being broke or being old. Just don’t be both at the same time.
To me this was one of the best interviews breakfast club has done. Definitely a top three of all time on the show.
Everybody and their Mama needs to watch/listen to this episode. One of the best I’ve seen in awhile. Bravo! Breakfast Club, y’all understand your platform and reach and you use it consistently with intention. BLACK PEOPLE. New Yorkers I want y’all on this like you get on what’s GUCCI. We ultimately are the change that we want to see.
I completely concur.. BUT.. I NEVER hear anything about apprenticeship programs for blacks!!! How can we get into the trades without skilled training?
Breakfast club on that Satan agenda they push that gay agenda big time they are democratic shills .
He has a white wife. How real is he
@@sisterches6306 He's advocating for more black people in real estate development, construction and finance with major projects in the pipeline. Does it matter that his wife is white?
Listen to yourself and see how you sound!!! He’s married to an white woman so he can’t help black people. His mom is white, his dad is black, he graduated from Howard University. I’m not going to call you any names because I don’t know you but you sound real (you finish the sentence)!!!
best interview this year. economic freedom is the only way. also Cheryl's laugh is infectious lol.
Black economic empowerment is the key factor to our emancipation ✊. This was your best interview ever 🙌!!! Thank you Breakfast Club 🙏🥰..
This is uplifting interviewing that betters all people. If the Breakfast Club was a major news stream on the OWN NETWORK, with this type economic inclusion- it would change a generational sentence…
Will never happen! Ophra is BROUGH AND PAID FOR! She has handlers and will NEVER advance the economic base of "black" people. There are many like her!
That was the best interview I’ve ever seen the breakfast club do. It was so informative and inspiring. Please do more interviews like that and follow up with these two specifically to see how the project is going.
Wow! What an interview! Maybe one of the best done by the Breakfast Club. A lot of gems in this. Thank you.
Best show! Been in Real Estate since 1982. Remember this is the International Decade for People of African Descent. I want to be a part of this.
I just watched a short documentary the other day on the black upper class and it's the first time I've heard of Don Peebles. Now he's on BC crazy.
Same!
YES DON PEEBLES!!! This is a REAL Los Angeles Legend!!
I know EYL plugged this
Class is in session! 🙌🏾 I learned so much here. I'm in support and even South African.
This sounds like it's gonna be an amazing project, that will be a blessing to millions of black, white, Asian and Hispanic people's, built and owned by black people
MORE INTERVIEWS LIKE THIS PLEASE!!!! These people just fed my soul!!!!
Same! These two always put a fire up under my azz 🔥
Simply stated, one of the very best conversations. Extremely important and on point. Access to capital I'd the only way to level the playing field.
Affirmation Tower a worthwhile project.
Do more shows like this, have more guest in development.
We needed this interview!!!! We need more of this!!!
I plan to build the affirmation tower in California. See you two soon as future partners McKissack and Peebles
Amazing interview!! We need a lot more of these interviews educating us and giving tangible solutions and ways for us to start making changes and what us as black people and minorities need in order to start shifting and closing that gap.
Man, just the name alone is powerful in its own right. "Affirmation Tower", WOW!
I must of seen this interview a million times . Every time I learn something new. He took us to church ❤
Most impactful interview yet! Good shit.... !
With my student loans in Undergraduate I tried to buy a town home. I was the first to attend and matriculate from college. I've always thought outside the quadrilateral Parallelogram. Many failed ideas and companies however I'm still going and trying without a village or parents that paved the proverbial way.
This man have learned me more than I learned in school love ❤️ love them…WoW speaking big FACTZ
Definitely. I learned so much from this interview.
The mindset is everything! Wow! Thank you for bringing them on.
Great interview. I’m a first year Urban Planner in Maryland. I aspire to be involved with projects of this size in the near future.
Congrats thank you from your community. We have a group of young men and women who we are mentoring and would like to know would you be interested in meeting with us in the near future. I'm realtor with an MPA who came from Harlem, NY then the BX. I'd love to speak with you further.
The part about your money working harder than you can is soooo good 👏🏾
That was one of the best interviews I've ever seen. Thank you so much for bringing this to the forefront. #affirmationtower
This one was THE BEST hands down !!! I learned so much , Thank you 👌🏽💯🥰
This is the only type of interviews I watch ..#Gratitude
Totally enjoyed this interview. Refreshing and honest
Love these interviews!
Once again, excellent interview and guests!!
This year my post graduation 5 year plan expired. I checked off everything! I created a new one. I look forward to seeing affirmation tower when its completed in the next 5 years!✊🏾
Don Peeples my guy! The largest African American Real Estate Developer in the US!
Absolutely! And I’ve never heard of him until he was mentioned recently on BC. I Googled him immediately and was amazed of his accomplishments. I’m happy to see him on this show this morning. BC is WONDERFUL!
Great interview and so many nuggets. Most of us get out the mud but if you listen closely having a foundation via generational exposure (both of them), a supportive & open local/city govt, and having the right ppl around you - makes a huge difference as well. Generational knowledge is huge!!! Those things are extremely important. Mr Peebles is right….the MONEY matters and they don’t want to change the status quo. Excellent interview
Yall got to have Don Peebles on more. He is the goat!
I really enjoyed this interview!! FINALLY! What an amazing man!
Fantastic interview with substantial information @work and thanks so much “The Breakfast Club” . I really needed this Clarity in my Life. Ole school be “Quiet like a rat pissing on cotton” is No More… Blessings
So happy to see this on The Breakfast Club! Kudos to Cheryl McKissack, Don Peebles & partners on this extraordinary venture. Excited for the project progression & all that will come from it! Keep going!
Rappers blow money. These people know how money works.
This is real wealth and talent and production.
Thank you for such an informative interview!
I first saw Don Peebles on TH-cam in a documentary called, America's Black Upper Class.
I have looked at this interview a gazallion times. Love it!
Man I absolutely love this episode!! Feels good being black!! 💪🏿💪🏿
Been watching since the start of this show and I’m really enjoying the evolution of TBC✊🏾👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Great informative interview! Thank you.
Thank u for this conversation
This is why we love the breakfast club🙏🏿
Absolutely!
Most important, most influential, most dopest show thus far. Don for President. Can't wait until his projection is complete to go pay tribute. He brings a feeling of pride to being Black. God Bless this man💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Awesome interview… I agree with everything that was said.
I gotta watch this one twice 🎯🎯
Great job bringing quality guests. Keep it up. ✊🏿
Fantastic session! Thank u!!!
"Making money in real estate isn't complicated " man I needed to hear that 🙏🏾 bless this man
McKissack & McKissack is a LEGENDARY architecture firm.
Now this interview make a lot of Sense Thank You!!!
Fantastic interview! This was THE BEST re economic empowerment 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Man I'm up early and in tears of joy watching this! Thanks king's and Queen's 👑! Including our sister Angela ❤️
I got a shoulder for you man
@@m-jay356 salute King 👑
@@gregheight4884 if we don't have each other, who we got?!
Great conversation!
Wow! This was a excellent interview. So much knowledge given out! I could’ve listened for hours. Absolutely amazing interview.
This is what's up, I like seeing folks on here who can educate....change up from rappers sometimes
Wow! Just Wow! Thank you BC for this interview!
This is the best interview I have seen thus far.
Beautiful interview, so insightful 👏
Everybody saying what a departure this is for the breakfast club, yall must not have been paying attention..because this has been the wave! It's been a place of ratchetness and righteousness for awhile and this is only a continuation from there..I've learned about credit, black history, issues involving other cultures of poc, finance etc. I've been recommended books on mental health, physical fitness, generational trauma, wholeness and wellness and on and on and on...this ain't new. But oftentimes ppl see bad in a place and then place labels on that thing forever because we're tribal, and you see what you expect! This is a show about wholeness and there's whole spectrum of duality in that💯💯🏆👏🏽🖤
I am so proud of the format and economic discussions of hearing and seeing first hand of the historical and economical shift we are taking making and receiving. Thank you Dr. People's and Sista in Construction are making our strength remains in our Unity of community and capital pools to leverage our legacy. Loved the show one of the best insight of what it takes to get it done. Dreams, Real Estate, Politics, Plans, leveraging talents and smart Partnerships.
Very informative 👏
I affirm that this video is the most viewed breakfast club video ever. There are many paths to generational wealth! These guest show one way! As a new author I hope to positively influence people’s perceptions of mental health awareness and spirituality to make generational wealth more attainable! Just like the special guest it starts with one generation and moves to the next. I aim to plant the seed and nurture it through intentional conversations! Thank you for this interview!
Thank u for sharing this!
Great piece of conversation, political and financial of course… braaavo to you guys and to your learned guests. They were both fantastic and extremely knowledgeable, most of all logical.
So many valuable nuggets!!
This was very informative!!! Time to get to work!!!
I love these interviewssssxx
