Political rights its because while the u. S. Signed it Congress Never ratified it once again even americans without the personal liberty the constitution promises them who always always you see that over and over and over again i think hearing this thing over and over again where well we did but we didnt really ratify or. Thats why we can use chemical weapons we dont really use we can use you know see all sorts of figures that are banned in other countries during war but we have to use them because. That to me is this is where their lives is disgusting im sorry but but debtors prison is you know it is illegal when the coasters includes as low and we shouldnt be allowing this to happen people have to pay us let them pay their debts but how are they going to pay back their debt of jail ive never understood that logic like once you go to jail you cant were good job youre not good now devoted right you get paid well you know bottom hour making license plates if youre lucky you. What about school pay off your Student Loan Debt oh its going to be if youre a couple of packs of roman at the commissary and maybe one phone call in whats interesting is how many people have actually been yeah you turned over if you had asked well and understand this theres about seventy theres an estimated seventy seven million americans have debt that are in collection are being run by a Collection Agency sort of out there if youre in collection on anything. We all have in your those are your brothers in arms are here exactly so you like you said a person falls behind on their bills they go into collection the Collection Agency takes them to court and so what happens is most of the time they dont get the they dont get the notices or like i said they get sent to the wrong people or theyre not aware that this is happening and so in the case of the older we couple the notices that were actually given to a forty five year old man and a year old one. You know i want to i want to point out very quickly Jennifer Turner the a. C. L. U. Is principal human rights researcher and author of the report the who did this and she said quote they are never criminally charged in the warm source still civil but they still lose their liberty they dont have a criminal record but they suffer a lot of the same cause collateral consequences and shes talking about people who go to jail for this kind of thing writing this and people over twenty three hundred dollars and all i mean are suppose you go to something i mean was it the a. C. L. U. Phone cases in which threatening letters were sent for debts as low as two dollars two dollars are you going to send some of threatened letter for two dollars in jail so youve got one in three americans has debt managed by a private Collection Agency crabber a very its incredible ninety percent of defendants it goes against them i mean criminalizing proverb poverty is wrong it is that it is wrong its doubly wrong and we will definitely follow that story because its a big story all right as we go to break clark watchers dont forget to let us know what you think of the top edge of coverage of those broken twitter see our poll shows that are coming up we welcome better colley the founder of reaching america into the hawks nest to discuss his organizations work in solving social divisions and promoting real upper to. If the states have to watch more folks. Such. Well similar for the spurs to the east yes and most of the snowboarding one of them would. Be over yes they were going to push. Him over to them close but then this month i do you know with the all my mother going through the story you know comes from. So from you know will some day and some as a woman in the sport of the video the dog to us of us send us a little. Book of suits and you put yellow with some openings for your commitment shows and who pulls through the police said you should be busting them for them so shes two three four well what you could get one that would usually do when they should be see would you do you see chelsea customs post some of the beautiful it will diminish the symbol to be so. The. United states is going to look very deep into mystic prizes chelan strong miracles supremest see the north from the outside walls from russia not from china bugs from the inside all sides are missing what you see now on the ground russia and this cyber bullies easing over russia not to notice is psychological analyst on the bill of times to find somebody outside the United States will is responsible for do it while the real problem is inside. This is Charlie Munger is approached economic blow bowls blow bubbles from wells fargo wells fargo. And one buffett. The United States today stands as politically and culturally divided as it ever has in our two century long history whether it be maga hot owners versus hillary voters or even clinton supporters and bernie bros gun owners and urban yuppies living in two entirely separate realities or the racial undertones of the war over Police Brutality and unconditional support for Law Enforcement the nation is truly divided and with every minute we spend watching the mainstream news media it seems like president lincolns cautionary words of our house divided against itself may be increasingly relevant and prophetic but not everyone in the field of social activism feels that we are irreversibly headed down this bleak road and many in fact are redoubling their efforts efforts one such american as their holly founder of reaching america and a pioneer and minority outreach to combat social divisions and inequality its an equities and promote opportunity to discuss his work derek joins us today and knox nast there are an absolute pleasure in the store from the from what you do know what is reaching america what does it do exactly sure rich americans more organizations are developed to address complex social issues that are impacting our communities and were focusing on solutions not based on right or left wing views what makes sense for more United America and thank you for this is a symbol i think. Difficult you know. About. Your organization bills itself as spoken to so i can say on africanamerican outreach that ignores and supersede sort of the traditional left right paradigm that this idea of youre either one or the other user or guns one would think in this day and age that that is a very difficult objective considering how divided our nation is and how do you manage to do this without getting caught up in that partisan. So i am trying to do it is right to make the world order of things is were not you know we have do outreach events and i kind of thing i tend to stay away from saying the word republican ok thats sometimes can be a dangerous word depending on audience and a lot of times you know when im speaking to black audiences you know i dont mention the president either because it is going to get a negative response so i talk about the issues and so we Start Talking about energy and Energy Poverty and Energy Poverty exists when low income families spent i was a thirty percent of their total income on their electric bill and when that happens it puts people in a very difficult situation having to make tough choices like do i eat today or do i pay the electric bill to get a prescription filled or do i pay my leisure bill and so we Start Talking and put it in laymans terms like that now people i will wait a minute what can i do to actually lower the cost of my energy bill and so now we Start Talking about the use of fossil fuels and so im very passionate about energy because my first graduate from college moved back home to Norfolk Virginia and i worked for Norfolk Southern railroad i was a brakeman ok i mean i got to hook the hoses right up the brakes and everything and so our job the responsibility was too low coal ships transport coal all around the world so ive always asked myself the question if our coal and Natural Resources are good enough of the countries that why isnt good enough for us right here at home and addition to that my grandfather was a black coal mine in southwest virginia so when i Start Talking about for gen i mean if you fossil fuels and energy now it comes across as very genuine and ive been able to i would say humanize fossil fuels and energy but obviously fossil fuels is a divisive issue because it is you know given the fact the i dont think we can change the fact that were pushing into a new green energy world you know and that eventually fossil fuels are going to kind of go the way of the dinosaurs and came from the president did that on purpose. But you know how did how do we balance that especially when were talking low income especially were talking people that you know theyre not going to have access to the electric car but at the same time their gas bills super expensive are secure how do they navigate this shift in dynamic that were in the middle of what we use right now more energy than we ever have in the history of this country and its because of our mobile devices good point and so when you start put it in laymans terms with it ok most of the time right now in this country we have an abundance of affordable and Reliable Energy ok that we can you have if we can get access to it roll back those regulations and make it happen and so and to and so when i Start Talking to people about going green and of course we all need to reduce our footprint im going to green it with that and until we can figure out whats the best way to harness all of this renewables we need to use what we have right and so i will for you know the approach in terms of whats new whats what can reduce our Carbon Footprint what kind of thing but until we harness the sun and to harness water then we have the use of fossil fuels the god given. Right here in north america ive begun we should be there god for the amount of fossil fuels that we have and its going to be right here as opposed to other countries but were having brown and black outs right now for us and for how does that connect to racial inequality because at the end of the day i start thinking when i think about how do we bring those costs down for low income people and anyone in any place white or black you know youre saying we how do we connect that with using what we have bringing down the cost moving into another and what how does your organization help people without a lot of knowledge a lot of education and awareness and so we do a lot of events where we go out and we talk about to talk to people about energy and why its important to utilize fossil fuels and how it can improve their lives and we talk about the regulations that exist when you start looking at your energy bill so we would do it and we would have a Panel Discussion where. We talked about Energy Poverty and so people would actually bring in their electric bills of a thousand dollars and live in an apartment and so now we Start Talking about reducing those regulations to reduce your energy bill not make sense with people but again no ones been able to give deliver the message has been the message in the messenger which is why i think weve been embraced reaching america thats interesting the center one of the other aspects of do you guys who talk a lot about energy what are some of the other issues in the u. S. Its really not just a surprise or lets talk about the course is a bipartisan bill right now with senator congressman mark walker from North Carolina and the c. B. C. Chairman said Rick Richmond its louisiana so they have a bipartisan bill thats out right now and so thats something people can unify because bipartisan and so everyone in america would appreciate some type of c. J. R. Criminal Justice Reform and so the president right now he talks about theres going to be an executive order coming down right now where theres going to help some of the returning citizens and so when we even when i debate people on my show my podcast reach america on demand you know people have to agree ok some criminal Justice Reform over criminalization thats going to help a lot of people we definitely need we were far too much of an overcrowded our society i think i think its it hurts our standing when we say that were land of the free and we have people incarcerated right now in the world because you know its cost to everything thats in a position where we have had jobs going overseas and all this stuff and really it all is connected and i think thats whats interesting activists often forget those connections they get so caught up in a message or keeping that hash tag going and staying on that message how can activists fine tune with their doing i mean you fine tune to come up here and say like coal is great and not have me like right. Or is it good thats going to big its like here were having a conversation what is it activists can do to to find. Message in a way that we can have is killing it make it personal its about human its a good thing is all im trying to improve peoples lives even when you talk about you know education ok im of the believe that School Choice is the way to go and when you look at some of the School Systems particularly in our area and we call Prince Georges County theyre ok they just went through this whole found with with a change of test grades and pushing kids along that this should have been promoted well thats thats an example whats going on a lot of public School Systems across this country and so even in Prince Georges County you have a lot of parents who send their kids already to private schools for high school because the high schools are just theyre not up to par so any time you send your child to a school outside of your district youre for School Choice. And so a lot of people offer School Choice and support it but dont really know that everest and i think you think my father worked for a Public School and he sent me to a private hell i thought he was not advisable was in there and got so interested in how we can find those connections to people that its not always one one way but i know and i think i think its also important i think you understand this is that is that in this country because we have so many different political ideologies and somebody different cultural backgrounds and everything like that that we really should be focused more on finding the best set of ideas rather than just one or the other. You know because i think that when you can have a balance between you know like you say like coal and green well then youre helping the least offset the dangers of both you know and when you talk about schools like you know i dont necessarily want to see a completely you know kind of capitalized Privatized School system i think you need a combination of both so you know but we have to reform the existing School System and we have to make sure that the capital as School System doesnt turn into like the university problem were becomes all about the money and then suddenly are people going to the dead just to send their kids to grade school you know its like you know i dont see that i dont know as i do the right and i really i think its good that you can sit up here and we could have these conversations i think thats what thats what would happen i think reaching america is good for that im glad that youre out there doing that and here and im glad you come up here and and have this conversation absolutely ill be glad to come back i want to very quickly what whats the next step got about thirty seconds or so what do you guys focused on that right now were were going to go out we have tour dates lined up right now we go out and again we speak to individuals about our different issues and were going to kick it off here in march on Cincinnati Ohio the carolinas coming up and then texas and were going to be talking about all of our issues including energy criminal Justice Reform occupational license to reform Free Speech Free speech is and i dont raise in a lot of what they had in iraq who really did it. Take their lives for us yeah there are clearly always a pleasure thank you thank you you thank.
