- On May 31st, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison took over the ongoing prosecution of Derek Chauvin and three other former Minneapolis police officers for their roles in the death of George Floyd. Soon after, Hasan made a passionate plea to Keith Ellison to fight for justice in the case - and it turns out that Keith was listening. Watch as Hasan sits down with Ellison to discuss the case, his decision to file new and increased charges against all four officers in the murder, and the underlying systemic racism within the criminal justice system in America. Hasan also examines the impact of recent protests around the country, Ellison's personal encounters with police brutality as a black man, and his views on the rising calls to abolish policing altogether.

As Will Smith said, "Racism isn't getting worse, it's getting filmed."
That quote opened my eyes so much.
The other thing that happened in the case of George Floyd is that we finally had the time off from being wage slaves, to actually do something about this blatant corruption in the punishment and slavery system of the US, that stems directly from us NOT outlawing slavery with the 13th ammendment
@George Kafiridis Kid is a narcissist and was raised in scientology - nothing is real to this guy. Just brush it off.
DenzelWashington: if you read the paper, you're misinformed.
And if you don't read the paper, you're uninformed.
Why would Jada cheat on will, man nothing makes sense.
Damn
Bravo to the AG, he's walking a fine line between sympathy, professionalism, historical awareness, openness...
Oh yeah. He's definitely not a corrupt official who's using this to fuel his political needs.
Totally! Bravo indeed.

“if you are black in america you are not allowed to be flawed” that hit harder than anything i’ve heard throughout this whole situation
Glad that hit home with you. Appreciate you.
I disagree
@@davidlewocz7271 Why so?
Yes you are. You just can't be starting fights with cops. Tony Timpa is a name that nobody is aware of because the media doesn't cover these horrible police brutality cases when wictim is white.
That is a stupid way to think if you allow someone else to not allow you to be flawed ummmmmm You are doing yourself a disfavor.
The media has tried to mess up Keith Ellison's name, I'm glad I can hear his full take in this segment and not 2 minute "gotcha questions"
Yes, the DNC screwed him a few years ago and all progressive voices, still.
Why when I first read your comment I said mafia not media 😂😂
He is Awesome ❤️👍🏼👏🏼 👏🏼👏🏼
GOD Bless Keith Ellison and his Name AMEN 💯 🙌🏼🙏🏼🤲🏼

We need this show...we need Hasan
Too real unfortunately

@@mbolduc who are you referring to?
My black friend stopped me when I was about to jaywalk in her hometown. She represents not only black women but also Muslim women in her city and cannot be seen breaking any laws, no matter how trivial. It doesn’t matter that I was the one instigating it, she would be the one getting the backlash, and it would spill over on all black people in that city. It was an eye opener for me and I’m ashamed to say it was.
This is so accurate.
What is the name of the city? I would like to know so I can avoid it.
ED ESSENTIALS it was in Helsinki. The black population in Finland is quite small that you tend to get noticed easily and is treated as a representative for all black people in the country.
@@nightsgrow6575 Thank you for your speedy reply. I hope life gets better for everyone there. Racism is not a good way of life.
Then somebody needs to break that cycle. She needs to highlight the bias but hey she does it her way
"If you are a black person in America you are not allowed to be flawed."
This is why people like to bring up whatever flaws that the people's names we chant as a reason that the movement will not work. I've seen that in the Michael Brown case and the Eric Garner case. Every hero I watched in movies and TV and read in comics had flaws. But in the end they were honored for their efforts and sacrifices. To be flawed is to be human.
@Joe Gallop Can't tell if parody or Turkish fascist.
@Joe Gallop Get help Joe.
@E Lee It's not the numbers alone that show the imbalance. It's the PERCENTAGE that shows incongruous circumstances. It's not hard to see nor is it to understand how race has played a role in the overwhelming differences in the percentage of Blacks who are, impoverished, disenfranchised, imprisoned, and uneducated. This has been going on since the first African set foot on America's soil, and it continues today. To act like one cannot see it shows a brazen attempt to disguise one's insensitivity that is clearly born with racist undertones. It's a shame we create a world like this for all of our children to inherit over and over again. It's time to stop... This among many other atrocities will eventually spell mankind's demise. We should be better than that... We COULD be better than that!✌
@E Lee 😂😂😂😂😂 Your remarks will only do service to prove my point FOR me. You are simply being insensitive for no good reason other than bolstering your likely over inflated ego. We are all in this together, and a solution based discussion is infinitely more valuable, than a race based CRITIQUE of a racial group that YOU are completely outside the experience of. Again, you have just proven my point FOR me.😜
@E Lee Not exactly... I'm of the opinion that you are likely a pompous a$s who is only here to spout insensitive remarks along racial lines in an attempt to inflate your already bulbous ego to an even larger size. I personally don't have any strong feelings about Keith ELLISON. The cops who participated in the completely botched arrest of George Floyd will have a price to pay. Frankly I think Mr. Floyd's unfortunate turn of events was directly linked to his derelict of character, and his having been under the influence of hard amphetamines and fentanyl that day in question. However the actions of the officers wasn't excusable none the less. So, really I have nothing to explain, and neither do you. I'm just not going to let you hide your racist beliefs behind a bunch of silly statistics that you are reading in such an insensitive and accusatory way. You are simply looking for an excuse to point the finger at Black people, damming an entire racial group of people based on some stats that again, you are not in a position of fully understanding how to read. Nobody has any reason to even acknowledge your judgement of this or any other particular situation concerning race relations... Your ego trip is not of interest to me. Nor is your judgement of Black people. You are not being a productive point of conversation. Reform is necessary.✌😎
As a Muslim, I found his dua hilarious, but I know people are going to be pissed about it.
I'm Muslim too and I laughed my ass off
it was nice.
I think that was the point
I'm not Muslim but Hasan has every right to make the dua his own. It's not like he's showing a picture of Mohammed making out in a threesome with Jesus Christ and Buddha.
Jose Saavedra tf is wrong with u
My older brother is 18 and he just graduated. My mom told him, “If you or your friends are about to do something stupid, Run. Walk away because you know full well You will be more in trouble than your other friends (He has mostly white friends), I need you to come home alive and not in a body bag”.
It’s so sad. I have mostly white friends and I know She’d tell the same things to me because She told me, “They arrest and throw little black Girls in jail”.
I’m so tired of being afraid I’m going to be killed for Riding my skateboard or walking around my neighbor hood, or my dads Neighborhood. I have 2 younger brothers and I’m scared they get killed for no reason expect for because there Black.
*Time to stand up No justice No peace ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼*
Man i hear you and I relate too well. I can't even wear my hair certain ways, my mom won't let me leave
No it’s not true what’s happens is that the media want a race war you look where the most un armed people get shot in the world it’s all in ghetto bad areas with huge gang violence.
And by the way it doesn’t matter what country it is if it’s an all Black Country or all white country the most police get killed in ghetto areas and the most un armed or armed people get killed too in them areas.
what do you think is a good idea to stop this
@@flaketv5332 instead of admitting our cities were poorly designed and have far outreached their initial potentials we're just going to blame eachother.
Not the governmental officials that had anything to do with the planning right?
“if you are black in america you are not allowed to be flawed”
I'm reminded of Chris Rock's joke where he lived in a neighborhood where there's only 4 black people in it, all of whom are celebs including Chris. His white neighbor, meanwhile, is just a regular, unremarkable dentist.
The point being that "the black man gotta fly to get somewhere the white man can walk to."
Exactly. I always bring that up, because it's the most poignant thing he's ever said.
Facts 🏆🏆🏆👏👏
"If you are a black person in America you are not allowed to be flawed."
Well said.
That is a stupid way to think...Change your mindset
@@GHustle4 How so? Pretty accurate if you ask me and look at the state of things. You obviously aren't black but have such opinions. The audacity.
Lol that is true
That goes the same for Indian Muslims in India.
Yeah right. Will you get real. In what way are you not allowed to be black and flawed in America?
18:34 I always refer to Dave Chappelle's response on other side's victim-blaming question: "We didn't make him [George Floyd] a hero. You did. They killed him and that wasn't right. So he's the guy."
Agreed +1
I would like your comments on my
I guess the fact is that "Martyr" is likely the better word to use, "Hero" just has a better ring to it. I just hope this changes the communal perception of what heroes are and who we idolize.
It’s nice seeing two Muslims on TV talking about news. I couldn’t imagine this after 2001. God bless America 😭
@Diginess Unknown they've already forgotten. Look at all Islamic countries and freedom of speech & religion there
I do agree this is awesome. All the struggles have paved of and made america a better place. BUT... there is still a lot to do. Redistribute the wealth, improve conditions for the working class, make education and healthcare free. End corporations from running the country and put the power back into the people.
too bad they are spewing propaganda.
I love how Keith looked at hasan while he was praying like, "is this how he prays all the time?"
🤣🤣🤣
I've never really though of Hasan as an interviewer just because it's not something I see him do a lot, but I have to say he's excellent. He's straight and to the point without disrespecting the AG. He gets answers, but also uses his own opinions to further the conversation and not to start and argument. Which is refreshing. His uses of humor are also incredible. No only does he use it to show the inequality in the situation, he uses it a tool to further examine the point he's making. Overall an incredible interview. Thank you for coming back to police brutality and George Floyd's trial after many others have seemed to move on.
alot of his early work on the daily show was interviewing people, and they were really great interviews -- you should check em out
@@rahulpuppala9571 Agreed. ✔
I would say Hassan is mainly an interviewer before anything else, you should check his interview with Justin Trudeau, it's beautiful, informative, entertaining and everything in-between

I’m not even Muslim but I felt that prayer in my soul.
Me too. Felt it in mah soul.
joinnnnnnnn ussssssssssss
jk do whatever u want lol
RABBANA ATINA FID DUNYA HUSANAH TRANSLATION
The meaning of the dua is, “Our Lord, give us in this world [that which is] good and in the Hereafter [that which is] good and protect us from the punishment of the Fire.”
My non religious but grew up catholic soul literally bent my head closed my eyes and put my hands together to pray. That was powerful.
Goes to show a prayer is a prayer is a prayer. the religion does not matter.
The quality of questions, the timing of humor to mellow out topics to transition to others, and the way Keith treads that fine line. This is a beautiful interview!
We're getting news from comedians and comedy from newscasters. This is true across the world! Incredible!
comedians are tryinng to bring change in comedy as citizens and politicians are giving us the "HAHA" content
Most comedians seek the truth
"When you are a black person in America, you are not allowed to be flawed". This is so true, I find myself guilty most of the time thinking maybe if he didn't sleep in his car; maybe if he just didn't go for a walk in that white neighborhood; maybe if he just...; maybe and I am black. I need to do a lot of self-reflection. Thanks Hassan
I'm very sorry you felt that way. It's awful to have your first thoughts aiming to justify a criminal's actions. What you described is the dictionary definition of victim blaming. This is how people react to/talk about victims of rape and sexual assault too. It's not the victim's fault. It never is. There is nothing they should have to do or not do to avoid being killed/raped/assaulted. Attackers are the ones who should've acted differently in all of those cases.
This way of thinking has been instilled into us, into our societies and cultures by the corrupt people in power aiming to protect and justify actions of criminals on their side. We need to recognize that and do everything we can to get out of that mindset.
Alhemičarka what will you suggest as an exercise or practices one can do to reinstate a healthy/ good mindset?
@@jon5397 a good start would be to, every time you catch yourself thinking something along the lines of "if they did that the bad thing wouldn't have happened to them" remind yourself that you're blaming an innocent person. Remind yourself to stop that line of thought, and remember who the real bad guy is, whose actions actually caused harm. It's similar to what a lot of white people do to combat subconscious racism - we're teaching ourselves that the prejudice we hold is largely a product of propaganda we had no control over consuming, so we do our best to intercept those trashy beliefs whenever they surface and root them out, listen to POC and support them. The same should be applied to victims of aforementioned crimes, or their families and loved ones, in case of the victim's death.
There are a lot of articles online better (and more qualified) than me at explaining what victim blaming is and how to combat it, and while most of them revolve around rape and sexual assault victims, the same is applicable to any sort of victim. This is a good one: www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2016/10/the-psychology-of-victim-blaming/502661/
It is based around a sexual assault case, but a bit further down it has a really good explanation of the psychology of victim blaming in general.
Alhemičarka thank you so much
@@jon5397 you're welcome
How is a cop using a tazer ”using non-lethal force” but a civilian having it is ”fear for my life” and justification for deadly force?
I got an idea. You get in a brawl with two cops and steal one of their tazers then try and run and mid run turn and shoot at them. I'm curious how many times you'd be shot and killed. You want to test that?
King Vortex think twice about being a cop? Ok let’s get rid of all the cops. Hope you are ready for complete mayhem. Good luck.
Trained professional hands. Not lethal. Untrained hands. Lethal.
Logic? 🤔
And even in that, if drunk guy had managed to hit the officer, officer had backup. Just because you're upset a drunk guy robbed you doesn't mean he deserves to die. Better make sure you're never around bars at closing time.
@@unreal4202 Nobody's saying that you fucking Troll.
And yeah, think twice before becoming a thug with a badge, because that's what American police is for the most part.
A society where you need thousands of hours of training to become an interior decorator, but just a few hundred to be given guns and authority to use them, is a recipe for actual mayhem.
You're already living in mayhem when compared with every other first, and not so first world countries in the world, and you know it.
Your country is a joke, It shouldn't be, but it is, and so are you, the problem is that the joke isn't funny and that people are forced to either laugh with it, or fucking die.
@@unreal4202 If not being able to get away with murder makes some people think twice about being a cop... that's a bad thing in your eyes?

He made fun of prayer in that prayer. I lost some respect for you man. I liked you Hassan
Fatima Toor i have to agree. We dont joke when it comes to religion -its a serious affair. I’m sure he didnt intend to offend or mock but that kind of behaviour is out of bounds
For anyone complaining about the prayer, who are you to judge how anyone else prays? It’s a bit of a stretch to say he’s “mocking” prayer. If you’re not Allah then quit complaining and go pray.
@@VeeVe3 "For anyone complaining about the prayer, who are you to judge how anyone else prays? It’s a bit of a stretch to say he’s “mocking” prayer. If you’re not Allah then quit complaining and go pray." As an Atheist, who has at least glanced at a bible, I wholeheartedly agree. Amen.
Naomi Evans-Wright he’s definitely acting in a comedic way while praying. We etiquettes as laid down in our religion as to how to pray. Its pretty clear he’s playing up to the camera and making comedy like requests during the prayer. Sure we dont know whats in his heart but we can see clearly his actions. And we are free to judge actions and call people out on them.

He is on the side of justice
I'm a resident of Minneapolis and there was a celebration when Ellison was given control of the case. Not everyone is a fan of him but he's generally trusted to have everyone's best interests in mind.

Could not agree more. He clearly carries weight on his shoulders, but he handles it with dignity and humility.

when he talked about what his father told him.... im heartbroken
I'm sad your parents didn't have that talk with you (I'm assuming from your comment). I got it from my Dad within the first month of moving into US from Russia. Had nothing to do with the color of my skin, but respect for the difficulty and unpredictability of police officer's job.
Daniil Deych
Not even in the top 10 most dangerous jobs. Pizza delivery drivers have a more dangerous job than cops. Look it up.
@@Schmaj01 Depends which city I suppose, and i'm aware that statistically the job isn't that dangerous. I'm in NYC, sanitation workers get more hurt on the job than cops do, but psychologically it is extremely different and that factor cannot be ignored, especially with how prominent the conversation around mental health is today.
I had that exact conversation with my dad and my son........oh, btw...I'm white.
It's not rocket science. Police are trained to deal with everything as a potential threat bc every situation is a possible threat that they are inserting themselves into. If someone genuinely poses no threat, then they should show that and have no reason to fear. However, when someone resists arrest or fires a weapon at police, they are by definition, a threat.
and yet when somebody is psychologically disturbed and wants to suicide by cop by waving a knife around, who responds to talk to them? not psychiatrists, but scared little bitches with guns who shoot somebody with no gun... in the back... from 10 yards away. When did cops stop having to be brave as part of their job description? Do we really need to start recruiting walmart karens to the police force just to have people who can stand their ground without murdering people 🙄
You can tell he misses people laughing at his jokes in person.
tbh it seems like most of the time he found hasan's comedic jabs at the situation to be a bit awkward
Oh man! We need more public officials like this guy.
So much respect for his opinion and points of view. Some of which I am going to adapt myself.
That was the first time I've hear a dua in a show...made me a lil teary eyed ngl (made me cry from laughing 2)

@Joe Gallop I think it's his own way of trying to release tension, yeah some people don't like it but I think it's a way to ease and engage them towards the interview, secondly he comes off to me to have a very strong connection to his own beliefs and really wants to have his own say, so that might also be it, but if you pay attention he never Interupts them except at break in their speech and generally at this interview he let his interviewi have his own say for some important moments
@Joe Gallop hummm yeah I see where you are getting from, maybe the jokes is his way of getting himself through these very serious topics of discussion, comedy is often thought of as the bandage to tragedy right?, I think in a certain way he might care a lot about these problems and because of it having an impact on him he uses humor to get through it
@Joe Gallop well I don't watch him that often but I did see the video of him going to the US Congress was it? (Not american) to talk about student loan, that's something at least right?, he wasn't necessarily impacted by student loan itself so I think there is genuine care from him about that problem, about cracking jokes I feel like we are starting to move towards a more comedic/political way of talking about problem which while yes it might not be appropriate if the subject is say "rape" Or the sort can really help to ease people who aren't into the boring side of news outlets still find relevant information from entertainment, for interviews I do agree that he might be well to kick back on the jokes but at least he isn't disrespectful in voicing his concerns like how many news anchors are, I think he goes to interviews with the mind set of more like a casual conversation with a camera just being there
@Joe Gallop also what I stated about the problems having an impact on him, I meant that he could sympathize with the people who have the problems, not that he experienced it first hand, for example his student loan fiasco, I don't think if he wanted attention he would be so needing of it to go to congress to speak about it
I have SO MUCH respect for Keith Ellison doing this interview; Whereas most people in his position would say “no comment till the case is over” - He was STILL able to give SUCH important messages!!! This interview is priceless!
“It’ll be Terrence Howard” That creative foresight is why Prashanth is the showrunner.
who is that
Prashanth Venkataramanujam. He’s the head writer/showrunner of patriot act. Him and Hasan have been doing standup together since college. He helped write Hasan’s Whitehouse correspondents dinner speech and they co created Patriot Act together
I immediately thought terrence Howard he knows 🤣🤣
Abdullah AlMamun A comedy connoisseur
I'm not Muslim, but that Dua/dua/Prayer (hope I said it right) was 🔥🔥🔥...Hasan is THAT GUY! Appreciate everything my dude represents ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Word
Yes, you said it right.
I'm not an American but our hearts are with our brothers ✊
I appreciate his quietness of the case. We dont want it screwed up cause we want a conviction.
Exactly
And not a complete breakdown of society.
Imagine he was “not guilty”, Jesus.
I agree. We don't want the defense to be able to use this interview against the prosecution. Every word Ellison says has to be calculated. I was too scared to watch the whole interview.
“It’s gonna be Terrence howard” LMFAOOOO ON GOD
"Patriot Act" is definitely the best title you could have chosen. Because that's who you are.
I think Hasan Minhaj is low key the "Millenial Hero" we all have been waiting for.
high-key
He uses his words very carefully for a reason. Everything he says will be used to prove any kind of bias or prejudice, by words or conduct, manifest bias or prejudice, including but not limited to bias or prejudice...
Don't make his job harder.
Don't you think that would have been agreed to before the interview? 🙄
@@chokinonashes61 I see your point and I agree to a degree, but what I'm referring to are moments like this 10:45, when Hasan interprets Keith's carefully chosen words, after Keith explained his reasoning clearly at 6:49...
I'm not saying it wasn't a good interview, it's just that Hasan pushed for clear answers, where, because of his position, Keith's reasoning couldbe jeopardised in court.
I agree wholeheartedly with your first two sentences but the third I wholeheartedly disagree with. The man came in prepared for this and he did well to uphold what the situation required of him. Hasan was also great for pushing as hard as he did. Doing that humanized Keith Ellison and showed the pressure he is under while also emphasizing the voice of protestors and their questions
It was an excellent interview. Hassan pushed hard, as he should, as an interviewer. The other man pushed back at the places he needed to for legal reasons, as he also should. There was no wrong done, and Hasan deserves much cred as an excellent journalist and for his ability to truly push his interviewee to their limits... which is a sign of a GOOD journalist not a bad one!
Good point, I kind of got the feeling of that when I listened to his responses.
I'm so proud of my Muslim brother Hassan may Allah keep him in the right way and give him hidaya
This is a great interview, master class worthy questioning. I fw this heavy. Thank him for taking the time to do this Patriot Act
This is one of the best interviews I've seen Hasan do. He seemed really in his element, nothing held back.
As a Muslim, there was nothing offensive with the 'Dua' (Prayer), it was rather cutely honest, we all often ask for silly things in our Dua. One wonders if someone heard my prayer, how funny they'd find it. It was just a nice way to begin.
As for the interview, Patriot Act has proved to maintain its integrity by not suspending content (there could've been many excuses like a lack of audience & everything), instead they respected the core of the show and positively exploited the current political climate and made the best possible use of helping & guiding people. Which shows that even though they insist that comedy is their priority & news comes later; their real priority is what matters in real time & that is the show's premise -- of a good and relevant journalistic service.
#1 MUST SEE PROGRAM for our entire family!
Comedy Central is more relevant than 90% TV news shows.🎯🔊💰💡🤔
Netflix bring back patriot act or im canceling my sub and my 3 other family accounts i pay for. Like if you're with me. Let Netflix know what we want! Follow through. This show was one of the MOST woke shows with a real message.
Keith Ellison is officially who I aspire to be. One of the best examples of a good man I have seen by far. Im having a hard time finding the right words but we need more people like him in the world
This man is cool.
Makes me rethink my boring ass image of an attorney general.
Except for the fact that he's a racist and a sexual assaulter...
C G42 crazy how mostly all the politicians in Washington are all the same huh
He seems problematic to me. Avoids every question, doesn't give a single straight answer, doesn't get jokes and references...
..oh and like the other guy said he's said and done a lot of troubling things.
@@way2kool89 True enough. Though it seems only one side ever gets called on it...
C G42 um getting called out and getting fired is two different thing
I wish a black man can be mediocre at his job. The burden of always having to be great at anything is wild.
You never heard of Meek Mill? 😉
That is why i don't Care if somebody is the first female/black/Muslim/trans and so on DA/Congressmember and so on because then it becomes "are the good enough" bs.
How about wishing that white men were held to a higher standard. Especially if they are in positions of power
And even then, it is still not enough for "them*
Windigo Jones it’s about not having to be the most excellent to garner the tiniest sliver of recognition even. My sister and I are mixed and (silly as this sounds) we had to do *extraordinary* things to have our white grandparents acknowledge us and mention us to others when they would brag on our white cousins all the time for the👏🏽most👏🏽menial👏🏽 of things. The year I graduated high school and started college was the same year my older sister graduated with her bachelor’s and started her master’s program for college. We collectively got one sentence in our family’s Xmas letter while our white cousins who “continuing their career at Olive Garden...” and one who had actually dropped outta college to runaway with her bf and live 1/2way across the country...they and they’re younger bro who was in grade school each got a paragraph to themselves. They got lauded and acknowledged for something most people would see as mediocre, while we were side swept and barely mentioned. That’s an everyday example of this exact situation being discussed, just to put it into a more real world perspective
WHO'S HERE AFTER THE GUILTY VERDICT.
“Those blinks. They don’t mean nothing” -> This is a double negative, so those blinks actually mean _everything_
shhh don't expose him man.
I like that Hassan doesn’t use filler words, such as “like” and uses his time wisely during the interview. A lot of great points and actual questions that ordinary people wondered about.
Yes I noticed that too. It gives off a respectful vibe, showing he really considers his sentences.
Same! I also like his persistence. When someone is uncomfortable with a question he asks, he asks it again with more emphasis. He keeps pushing until he gets a clear answer.
His brain works too fast for filler words.
@@mandi4794 uhm this is kind of off topic but just bc someone uses filler words, doesn't automatically mean their cognitive processing's delayed
@@xotni can y'all just please try correct your spellings, it's Hasan with an single s, i know because my name is same and i am also annoyed by this
I wanted that interview to go on for 3 more hrs.
I can see why Keith Ellison wanted this interview. He comes across very well across and not afraid of any curveballs or tough questions
DL Hughley said it so well : black men are held to the exception, not the rule.
When the cameraman said it's definitely guns be Terence Howard and I googled him to see his face. I couldn't stop laughing. The really look alike.
He's gonna be Terence Howard for the first episode and get replaced by Don Cheadle from then on because Howard asked for more money while everyone else pretends it's the same guy
@@The_DutchKiwi when one guy is earning several times what the others are in an ensemble film then I can't disagree with him. That's show business, he left and they all moved on
Not the cameraman
omg same
I thought he was teasing the AG, because Terrence Howard is known for being shit-stirrer... and he stays high.
"Lets be honest here, it's gonna be Terrance Howard" hahaha it's like he knew but didn't want to admit it til called out.
He looks sooooooo much like him tho!!! 😯😮
It's like they were all trying hard not to say it until the guy thought "fuck it, the truth has to come out"
Yeah jI’ll has has
“He’s a hero because he’s an ordinary guy.” *thought provoking*
So heroic, pointing guns at pregnant women.
I just watched the whole body cam vid and there are allot of questions now.
We NEED you to read this, Hassan, and the others here. I appreciate everything that's said here and done. I've never commented on a CZcams Video before and I don't plan to keep doing it unless it's extremely necessary for me. Killing of George Floyed took the United States and the rest of the world by storm. It brought in a lot of issues we face as the general public when the pressure builds between the lawmakers and us. This was not just a pressing issue on racism, but also a case, as we know it, a case of police brutality. That's where I want to take what I'm trying to say. Police Department in a state called Tamil Nadu in India, sexually assaulted and killed a father and son for keeping their store open for half an hour longer than the cerfew limit. Most issues that happen in the South of India stays in the South. It never gets out. But hopefully, things are brightening up and people are becoming aware of what is happening. I want Hassan to acknowledge this and bring to international attention the things that happen in India.
Along with this, the day before this happened, a school boy was assaulted by police in front of his parents for petty issues regarding vehicle handling. I hope this does not go down the comments. I don't do things for likes, but I need them now so this reaches the top so people be aware and we get justice for the father and the son killed trying to feed their family.
Nothing but love for y'all. Peace.
TLDR "This is a real case, I can not say anything about it because the Defense will use that in the real case that I can't talk about. Literally you are going to make it harder to convict these guys if you trip me up.", wish he would talk to this guy AFTER the case
Hopefully they'll do a follow-up afterwards ^-^
he would probably request to see their final edit and have to approve it
I agree it would've been tricky and maybe risky to do this interview, but it also has the ability to be a huge positive too. He called Hasan and requested the interview, and he would've been able to set some general terms and agreements for what will/won't be discussed due it being an active case etc beforehand, then he would've likely been able to approve the final edit before release just to make sure. He must've felt pretty confident.
Make sense, but it seems like it was important thing to do since people are losing interest just after results of George Floyds case. There are more cases like this, I think this video is directed towards that direction to spread awareness to people that it's not over yet.
@@Ayaaz960 who's losing interest? you must be referring to people who never cared in the first place ... because black people have had an *invested* "interest" for centuries .. most black people and the people who truly support them, will NEVER lose interest.
Oh man this is such a great conversation. Hasan is a great interviewer and knows how to ask really tough questions with a clear prospective, more importantly, follow up on the answers.
Keith Ellison is trying to hold a moderate progressive position and I get it, but I'm for defunding and reallocating funds to other social services that would better serve the community and naturally lower crime. We've been giving the police too much responsibility. It's time to really scale back on what they do, and to reimagine how we provide policing and handle the justice system in our communities.
This was good and absolutely necessary. I love that Hasan didn't hold back.
"protect us from white women in yoga pants" aka Karens? lol
Amin to that
Nah, most karens are overweight, fat ugly trolls that can't fit real yoga pants🤣
that's racist. #jokeaboutallracesequally
What happen what to protect?
Xd😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Protect us from the pit" Oh my god, Hassan is incredible.
Love all your videos Hasan.... but can we get the audio turned up a bit? I always have to turn my volume way up high when I watch your videos. then at the closing with the end credits the music just blasts super loud.
The ending of this was so important. If you're wondering why something isn't happening, You should ask yourself if you've called your member of congress.
Dua in an American show
Wonders never cease
That's kind of hopeful
Yes, and women everywhere are covering their faces. Sh4r1ah law is next??!?¿!!1
Yes COVID is all part of a giant conspiracy to enact Shariah law aided and abetted by the Gay Agenda
yes loved to see that
this is the new normal, i loved it so so much
@@Ya39oub_G dude I'm a Muslim who is kidding
Hasan: Starts reciting an arabic dua
Keith: 0_0
Edit: Never knew Keith was a Muslim, thanks for letting me know guys
Keith is Muslim
He’s muslim
@@acdnan Keith Ellison and a lot of other African American "Muslims" are nominal Muslims in the sense that they embraced a religion other than Christianity, and one which they thought was more African-centered, even though in reality it isn't. You can tell he wasn't born and raised in a Muslim household. He doesn't pray 5 times a day, or any of the rest of it. He had a live-in girlfriend (who accused him of assault).
manofsan dude I was raised Muslim and I am an atheist. Dude is a better Muslim than me and I still love my people and the religion.
Allah please protect us from white women in yoga pants LMAO
AG Keith Ellison is so cool for doing this interview. So inspirational
"The camera phone should win an NAACP award." I love Hassan!
Hasan is a national treasure. He should have a secret service detail at all times
@Kent Horvath just an opinion, no need to spread hate!
Gen z would probably sign up to be his bodyguards we have anger issues
@K yup just like Europeans should get out of the USA and go bk to Europe
Do you know what won the case in the movie A Time to kill? Reeves said "close your eyes and pretend she was white"
That always made me so sad. She was just a little girl.
That's not gonna be the problem here, obviously. To reduce it to baby language, the cops's defense attourneys are gonna go around shouting "you're all haters! You're all pre-juu-diced!" (In the way Michael Jackson would've used the word). Which is blatant nonsense but might get a corrupt judge to yeet the case into a mistrial. But even that's just gonna be a stay of execution, pardon my turn of phrase.
Bro you just said what will be a famous quote in a real case if they use it. Great comment
keith is a fair, just, good man. he's the right man for this job
Completely irrelevant - he looks like such a delightful person when he smiles and laughs.
America doesn’t deserve Hasan - I adore this man.
Ikrrrr
Because he’s not funny at all? I agree
I just met him on CZcams and I love him too!!
BUT WE NEED HIM AND PEOPLE LIKE HIM
janethope+ What do you mean America doesn't deserve Hasan? He is American, and I'm very happy he is. He's terrific!
I can hear all the aunties and uncles giving hassans dua the silent treatment already 🤣
@Apeksha Adhikari its hilarious XD i fucking laughed my ass about that olive pit
@@saud8329 my fav part is when Ellison says KHATEEEB 😂😭
@Apeksha Adhikari
They are not really pissed, it was a joke.
@Apeksha Adhikari they aren't, I made a joke
Please post the tracks if possible - love the sound at 14:27. Plus good to know your representatives do pay attention if they get 30-40 calls of the same issue...
For a second I was like "Wow Hasan is really gonna get all the way through this prayer completely earnestly - no jokes, just heartfelt prayer." Then I heard "Ya Allah, protect us against plaque" 😂
“Rayshard Brooks is a hero because he is an ordinary guy. You can’t have a society where only the most meritorious people deserve outrage when their rights are violated.”
This is what intelligent conversation between two adults with different yet open views looks like
I was definitely thinking Terrance Howard too lol!!
If Netflix is not keen on taking this series further, I will totally set up some money aside monthly to support the 'Patriot Act'.
3:19 Keith's eyebrow raise when Hasan said "Please protect us from white women in yoga pants" made me think maybe Keith is not entirely on board with that LOL
Or he knows it's potential for backlash from the Karens 😅
Remember he is a comedian he going to make it funny.
I kid you not, Without much thought, I found myself saying “Ameen “ to that
He mentioned a wife.
@@Brett_S_420 He said wife but he had a bad public breakup in 2016 and nothing reported since.
I'll say this. If they dont get convicted, I hope everyone is prepared for complete destruction.
i know i am
I'm pretty sure this is the quickest way the get moderates against you. conviction or no conviction.
MagnumBarrage not sure how anyone can still be a “moderate” in this situation.
@@lalos9782 there are people out there who agree with you on George Floyd's death. but if destroying everything, their homes, neighborhoods, and livelihoods is a possibility, you are not getting the support you think you should be getting. the moderates I'm talking about are people that just want to distance themselves from these politics and live their lives.
@Soda Pop war makes strange bed fellows. don't be surprised with the alliances regular people make if war pops up.
"I'll keep that in mind." Good response.
This was absolutely excellent interviewing. Props Hassan.
"so basically what you're saying is, 'Target Had to burn'?"
Jesus man - let the guy keep his job
Right. He actually made his job harder. If I was defense I am entering this into evidence
Might not work but I'd try it
@@zachbear98765 evidence for what? They're defending lol
@@kemberlandon6214 doesn't the defense also enter in evidence during trials???
@@zachbear98765 Yeah they can, which is why I'm happy Keith was withholding as much information as he was.
@zach bear. Yes, it's called discovery. Defense is entitled to know what evidence the prosecution has against them.
Btw that Arabic dua is about seeking forgiveness from god for our parents and our children
No! Dua is about Asking Allah for goodness in this world and life hereafter and protection from hellfire
it mostly translate to: God, we ask you for goodness in this life and the one after and protect us from hellfire
The joke is that he asks for goodness, goodness in arabic is hasanah which happens to be the gramatical female version of hasan
So in essence he was saying oh Allah we ask if you Hasanah in this world and hasanah in the next
@@zahraaghaswala i don't think that was a joke it's a verse in the quran and a pretty common duaa .
Can't believe I won't be getting this amazing information from Patriot Act any more 😭 it actually Breaks my heart. Please use your connections and get a spot on another network 🙏 🙏
Impressive conversation. Thank you both!
